It is made up of flower gardens, an arboretum and recreational areas, Most of the area is grass and woods and lanes lined with trees.(公园位于塔夫河的东岸，紧挨着卡迪夫城堡。它由花园、植物园和休闲区组成，大部分地区是草地和树林，小路两旁是树木。)”可知，Bule Park里大部分区域都有草地植被覆盖，由此可知，如果想接近大自然的话，Bute Park是最好的选择。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cardiff Central Library Hub部分中的“At Central Library Hub we can help you with welfare and benefit advice, the housing waiting list and support you if you are facing homelessness.(在中央图书馆中心，我们可以帮助您获得福利和福利建议，住房等候名单，并在您面临无家可归时为您提供支持。)”可知，该图书馆可以帮助获得福利和福利建议，如果面临无家可归会为你提供支持，由此可知，如果你现在有困难，可以寻求Cardiff Central Library Hub为你提供帮助，其对应的电话号码为+442920382116。故选C项。 B The moment I stepped into the Marrakech souk (露天市场) in Morocco, I was swallowed by a world of strong smells and sounds. The air was full of the smell of spices (香料) and food. My ears were filled with a constant soundtrack of shopkeepers’ calls, customer bargaining, and the distant sound of traditional music. The streets were lined with shops that sell everything from colorful lamps to beautiful carpets. It was fascinating and overwhelming. My plan was simple: follow the main path, do some sightseeing, and return to my hotel before sunset. However, the souk is a designed maze. Drawn by a unique blue door, I turned down a narrow path, then another, and soon, I was completely lost. Every corner looked the same. The once fascinating noises now felt confusing. I tried to ask for directions, but my limited French and the locals’ rapid Arabic meant I couldn’t make myself understood. A sense of panic began to rise inside me. Just as I was considering giving up and sitting in a corner, an elderly shopkeeper who was sitting in front of his carpet store noticed my confused look. He gestured for me to come over. Instead of giving me complex directions, he offered me a cup of mint (薄荷) tea. Using simple words, hand gestures, and by drawing a rough map on a piece of paper, he patiently showed me the way. Following his guidance, I finally saw the familiar main square. This experience has taught me that getting lost isn’t always a bad thing. It pushed me out of my comfort zone and led to a genuine connection with a local. The kindness of that old man is the most valuable memory I have brought back from Morocco. Sometimes, the wrong turn can lead to the most right moment. 4. Which of the following best shows the author’s first feeling in the souk? A. Bored and disappointed. B. Fascinated yet overwhelmed. C. Frightened but curious. D. Relaxed and at home. 5. What caused the author to get lost? A. He was attracted by a blue door and left the main path. B. He was purposely misled by a local shopkeeper. C. He followed a tour group who suddenly changed routes. D. He was too busy bargaining for a carpet. 6. How did the old shopkeeper help the author? A. He drew a simple map and used gestures. B. He sold him a detailed tourist map. C. He called an English-speaking guide. D. He walked the author back to the hotel. 7. What can be learned from the author’s story? A. Always buy a souvenir to remember a trip. B. Stay on the main path to avoid any trouble. C. Getting lost may bring unexpected kindness. D. Tea culture is the highlight of Morocco. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者走进摩洛哥马拉喀什露天市场，初感着迷又不知所措，后因被蓝色门吸引迷路，幸得一位老年店主用简单方式指路，此次经历让作者明白迷路或有意外收获。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“It was fascinating and overwhelming.( 这是着迷又不知所措的。)”可知，作者初到露天市场时的感受是“既着迷又不知所措”。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Drawn by a unique blue door, I turned down a narrow path, then another, and soon, I was completely lost.( 在一扇独特的蓝色门的牵引下，我走了一条又一条狭窄的小路，很快，我就完全迷路了。)”可知，作者被一扇独特的蓝色门吸引，偏离了主路，最终迷路。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第四句“Using simple words, hand gestures, and by drawing a rough map on a piece of paper, he patiently showed me the way.( 他用简单的语言、手势，在一张纸上画了一张粗略的地图，耐心地给我指路。)”可知，老人通过简单的话语、手势和手绘地图帮助作者。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句 “This experience has taught me that getting lost isn’t always a bad thing.( 这次经历告诉我，迷路并不总是一件坏事。)”及后文提到的老人善意可知，作者从经历中领悟到“迷路可能带来意外的善意”。故选C项。 C Advocates of AI chatbots in educational settings say the tools can assist in activities like brainstorming — or help students get started on tough math problems. But many teachers say their students are short of the skills to improve upon what AI produces, or the maturity (成熟) and self-awareness to know where the work of AI ends and their own responsibility begins. A 2024 study of nearly 1,000 high school students put the matter to a test: 9th, 10th, and 11th graders attended a brief math lesson, then practised solving related problems in preparation for a quiz. Some relied on traditional methods — consulting their notes and textbooks to find possible answers — while others had access to a basic version or a tutor version (辅导版) of ChatGPT. The results were a success of technology — until they weren’t. Students using the basic and tutor GPTs scored an astonishing 48 percent and 127 percent better than their peers during the practices, respectively, but when the same students went to get back the information from their memory during a follow-up closed-book test, their math skills had disappeared. Test performance of the students who had used the basic version of ChatGPT dropped so sharply that they scored 17 percent below their peers who had relied on pen and paper. Given the opportunity, students used the software as a “crutch” and often skipped straight to the answer, the researchers concluded. When applied at key moments, the technology actually “runs the risk of blocking learning.” But ChatGPT and other similar AI tools aren’t out of the game. In several studies, the tools performed well when designed to guide student learning-by refusing to give away answers, for example, or asking in-depth follow-up questions. AI is making rapid progress, but isn’t a threat to replace teachers. For now, it’s only as smart as its human makers. 8. What is a problem of students when using AI chatbots? A. They are not aware of how AI chatbots work. B. They lack the ability to employ AI effectively. C. They are incapable of improving AI chatbots. D. They refuse to take their own responsibility. 9. How did GPT users perform compared to students using traditional methods? A. Basic GPT users performed best during the practices. B. Tutor GPT users scored 127% better during the test. C. Basic GPT users’ performance dropped during the test. D. Tutor GPT users scored 17% lower during the practices. 10. What does the underlined word “crutch” mean in paragraph 3? A. A device to help people walk. B. A strategy to deepen learning. C. A tool to improve math skills. D. A shortcut to find quick answers. 11. What are AI tools expected to do in education setting? A. Enhance students’ thinking ability. B. Follow AI designers’ instructions. C. Give in-depth answers instantly. D. Replace traditional teaching methods. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在教育环境中使用AI聊天机器人(如ChatGPT)的利弊，指出学生在使用AI时存在的问题，并通过一项研究揭示了AI辅助学习可能带来的风险，同时也强调了AI在正确引导学生学习方面的潜力。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But many teachers say their students are short of the skills to improve upon what AI produces, or the maturity (成熟) and self-awareness to know where the work of AI ends and their own responsibility begins. (但许多教师表示，他们的学生缺乏改进AI生成内容的能力，或者缺乏成熟度和自我意识，无法分辨AI的工作在哪里结束，自己的责任从哪里开始)”可知，学生在使用AI聊天机器人时缺乏改进AI生成内容的能力，不知道哪里该自己负责，由此推知，他们缺乏有效使用人工智能的能力。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Students using the basic and tutor GPTs scored an astonishing 48 percent and 127 percent better than their peers during the practices, respectively, but when the same students went to get back the information from their memory during a follow-up closed-book test, their math skills had disappeared. Test performance of the students who had used the basic version of ChatGPT dropped so sharply that they scored 17 percent below their peers who had relied on pen and paper. (在练习中，使用基础版和辅导版GPT的学生分别比同龄人高出48%和127%，但当这些学生在随后的闭卷测试中从记忆中回忆信息时，他们的数学技能却消失了。使用过基础版ChatGPT的学生的测试成绩下降得如此之快，以至于比那些依赖纸笔的同龄人低了17%)”可知，在练习中使用GPT的学生在后续测试中表现下降，尤其是基础版GPT用户的表现下降明显。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“and often skipped straight to the answer”(并且经常直接跳到答案)和“When applied at key moments, the technology actually ‘runs the risk of blocking learning.’ (在关键时刻应用时，这项技术实际上“有阻碍学习的风险”)”可推知，“crutch”在文中是比喻用法，指学生将AI聊天机器人作为“避免自主思考、快速获取答案的捷径”，而非真正辅助学习的工具。故划线词意思是“寻找快速答案的捷径”，与“A shortcut to find quick answers.”同义。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In several studies, the tools performed well when designed to guide student learning-by refusing to give away answers, for example, or asking in-depth follow-up questions. (在几项研究中，当这些工具被设计成引导学生学习时，它们表现良好，例如，拒绝给出答案，或者提出深入的后续问题)”可知，当AI工具被设计成引导学生学习时表现良好。由此推知，在教育环境中AI工具被期望能够引导学生思考，增强他们的思维能力。故选A项。 D When we see a person in trouble, the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand. But what if we see an animal in trouble, does the same rule apply? This question was raised after a group of penguins (企鹅) were saved from an icy gully (峡谷) in Antarctica. It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties. The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young. They built a slope (斜坡) so that a few of the penguins could save themselves. The case has taken the international media by storm. Viewers watching this film sighed in relief. “I’m so glad. I understand not taking action directly, but a helping hand isn’t bothering, right?” viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook. However, others think human interference (干涉) is unnatural. “You can’t have sunshine throughout your life. To have done anything else would only make matters worse.” said the show’s creator David Attenborough, according to The Times. In this case, however, Mike Gunton, the executive producer of the series, said that this was a one-off situation. “There were no animals going to suffer by interfering. You weren’t touching the animals and it was just felt by doing this ... They had the chance not to have to keep slipping down the slope.” he told the BBC. Such cases are familiar to Paul Nicklen, wildlife photographer for National Geographic. He told Metro, “If it’s ever a predator (捕食者) situation, no matter how gut-wrenching, you stay out of the way. Even when you’ re watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear.” “There’s no rule book in those situations. You can only respond to the facts that are right there in front of you.” Will Lawson, the show’s director, told Daily Mail. 12. What has led to a heated media discussion? A. Some penguins’ sufferings in a gully. B. People’s various opinions on penguins. C. The rescue of penguins from a gully. D. Ways of filming the series Dynasties. 13. What’s David Attenborough’s attitude towards human interference? A. supportive B. unfavorable C. objective D. indifferent 14. Which of the following best explains the word “gut-wrenching” underlined in Paragraph 6? A. confusing B. dangerous C. heartbreaking D. amazing 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Help Animals in Trouble or Not B. Necessity of Lending a Hand to Animals C. Protect Animals From Dying Out D. Human Interference on Dangerous Animals 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过一个具体事件（BBC纪录片《王朝》中企鹅被困冰谷的救援事件）引发了对人类是否应该干预动物困境的讨论，并引用了不同人士的观点，探讨了这一问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。 根据文章第二段“This question was raised after a group of penguins (企鹅) were saved from an icy gully (峡谷) in Antarctica. It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties. The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young. They built a slope (斜坡) so that a few of the penguins could save themselves.(这个问题的提出源于一群企鹅在南极一处冰封峡谷中的获救事件。该场景被BBC野生动物纪录片Dynasties拍摄记录。当摄制组发现一群企鹅带着幼崽跌入峡谷受困时，他们深感焦虑。最终，他们搭建了一道斜坡，使部分企鹅得以自行脱困。)”和第三段“The case has taken the international media by storm. Viewers watching this film sighed in relief. “I’m so glad. I understand not taking action directly, but a helping hand isn’t bothering, right?” viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook.(这一情况引起了国际媒体的广泛关注。观看这部影片的观众松了一口气。“我太高兴了。我理解不能直接采取行动，但伸出援助之手也没什么，对吧？”观众凯瑟琳·肖在她的脸书上说道)”的描述可知，BBC野生动物系列中拍摄了一群企鹅从冰峡谷中被救出的场景，这一事件引发了国际媒体的广泛讨论。因此，引发媒体热议的原因是企鹅从峡谷中被救出的事件。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的句子“However, others think human interference (干涉) is unnatural.(然而，其他人认为人为干扰是不自然的。)”和David Attenborough的话：“You can’t have sunshine throughout your life. To have done anything else would only make matters worse.(你不可能一生都阳光明媚。做其他事情只会让事情变得更糟。)” 可知，他认为人类干涉是不自然的，可能会使情况变得更糟。因此，他对人类干涉持反对态度。故选B项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词的上文“If it’s ever a predator (捕食者) situation(如果遇到捕食的情况)”和下文的“Even when you’ re watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear(即使你在看一只公北极熊吃一只熊宝宝)”可知，公北极熊吃一只熊宝宝的情况肯定是“让人心碎的”、“让人痛苦的”，所以，划线单词的意义为“极度痛苦的，撕心裂肺的”，与heartbreaking意义相近。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第一段“When we see a person in trouble, the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand. But what if we see an animal in trouble, does the same rule apply?(当我们看到一个人陷入困境时，我们想到的第一个想法就是伸出援助之手。但如果我们看到动物陷入困境，同样的规则是否适用)”可知，文章主要讨论了人类是否应该帮助处于困境中的动物，并通过企鹅被救出的事件引出了不同的观点。因此，文章的核心主题是关于是否应该帮助处于困境中的动物。所以，用A项“Help Animals in Trouble or Not(是否帮助有困难的动物)”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选A项。 第二节 七选五阅读（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Having a business in retirement has numerous advantages.

This trend mainly stems from heavy study pressure and less face-to-face communication with peers. Many teens turn to such consumption as a way to comfort themselves when feeling isolated. However, excessive spending may bring financial burdens. In my opinion, teens should balance consumption with practical needs. We can also join clubs or volunteer activities to make friends, which helps reduce loneliness fundamentally. Let’s embrace real connections while rationalizing our consumption. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以李华身份，分析青少年“孤独经济”的成因并提出建议，向校英文报“Teen Trends”栏目投稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 缓解；减轻：relieve → ease 源于：stem from → arise from/originate from 交流：communication→ interaction 减少：reduce → decrease 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Nowadays, the “loneliness economy” among teenagers is on the rise, referring to individual consumption like single-person meals and mini home appliances to relieve loneliness. 拓展句：Nowadays, the “loneliness economy” among teenagers is on the rise, which refers to individual consumption like single-person meals and mini home appliances to relieve loneliness. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Many teens turn to such consumption as a way to comfort themselves when feeling isolated.

Girls could do many things like hopscotch, jump rope, tetherball, and dodgeball, except high jumping. Only boys could do high jumping. That’s what I wanted to do — high jumping. So I went to the coach. “Girls don’t do high jumping,” the coach said. “Girls have all these other things they can do.” He excitedly described how much fun it would be. I’d been high jumping in the backyard with my five brothers for years. Although I am a girl, I did high jumping pretty well. My brothers could rarely beat me. Whenever my back crossed the bar, that feeling is extremely wonderful. I went home and told my mother what the coach had said. My mother, a small, thin woman only four feet eleven inches tall, said, “I think we should go visit him.” “Visit who?” I asked confusedly. “The headmaster.” “Visit the headmaster?” I was terrified. Would I get in trouble? Would my mother and I be crossing boundaries we shouldn’t cross? My mom and I went to Mr. White’s office. “Linda wants to do the high jump,” my mother said. “Mrs. Martinez, you don’t understand. This is the tradition of our Annual Sports Day,” he said. “But Mr. White, I don’t know where it says that girls cannot do this.” The headmaster couldn’t find any rules that said girls couldn’t do the high jump. “I have to think about this,” he said at last. When we got home, my mom told me something I would always remember: this wasn’t just about me. “Maybe other girls want to do this, too,” she said. My mother waited a week, but still didn’t get the headmaster’s reply. So she walked over to the school again. “Mr. White, please. I ask you this not for me and not for Linda, but let’s just see how it works.” In the end, Mr. White agreed. I stood on the field of the high jumping competition. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, some of the cheers I got were from boys! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I stood on the field of the high jumping competition. I was the only girl who joined in high jumping, which made me feel a little embarrassed. But when I saw the bar I had been longing for, all the awkwardness disappeared. I was arranged the last to jump. I saw some boys failed, while some jumped over at a good height, but not higher than my ever record. Finally, it was my turn. I took a deep breath, ran up, took off, and crossed over! As it turned out, I won the high-jumping contest. To my surprise, some of the cheers I got were from boys! The boys who had laughed at me for participating in high jumping were now cheering for me. The girls ran over and hugged me. I instantly became the center of attention on the entire field of competition. The headmaster person- ally presented me with an award. More importantly, every year in the future, the school would allow girls to participate in high jumping competitions. My mother was right--it wasn’t about me. It was about making people think about what girls could do. I jumped not only over the bar, but also over the boundary of prejudice. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达是读后续写。本文以人物为线索展开。作者小学时代，学校运动会不让女生参加跳高，说是男孩子的项目，作者的母亲为其找校长争取到参加跳高项目并赢得比赛奖项。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“我站在跳高比赛的赛场上。”可知，第一段可以描写作者在赛场上的心情和表现。 ②由第二段句首内容“令我惊讶的是，我得到的一些欢呼来自男孩！”可知，第二段可以描写作者获胜后校长的动作和获胜的意义。 2.续写线索：在赛场上—起跳—获胜—得到欢呼—校长颁奖—意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①参加：join in/ take part in ②消失：disappear/ vanish ③安排：arrange/ schedule 情绪类 ①尴尬的：embarrassed/ awkward ②渴望：long for/ desire 【点睛】【高分句型1】I was the only girl who attended high jumping, which made me feel a little embarrassed.

B The moment I stepped into the Marrakech souk (露天市场) in Morocco, I was swallowed by a world of strong smells and sounds. The air was full of the smell of spices (香料) and food. My ears were filled with a constant soundtrack of shopkeepers’ calls, customer bargaining, and the distant sound of traditional music. The streets were lined with shops that sell everything from colorful lamps to beautiful carpets. It was fascinating and overwhelming. My plan was simple: follow the main path, do some sightseeing, and return to my hotel before sunset. However, the souk is a designed maze. Drawn by a unique blue door, I turned down a narrow path, then another, and soon, I was completely lost. Every corner looked the same. The once fascinating noises now felt confusing. I tried to ask for directions, but my limited French and the locals’ rapid Arabic meant I couldn’t make myself understood. A sense of panic began to rise inside me. Just as I was considering giving up and sitting in a corner, an elderly shopkeeper who was sitting in front of his carpet store noticed my confused look. He gestured for me to come over. Instead of giving me complex directions, he offered me a cup of mint (薄荷) tea. Using simple words, hand gestures, and by drawing a rough map on a piece of paper, he patiently showed me the way. Following his guidance, I finally saw the familiar main square. This experience has taught me that getting lost isn’t always a bad thing. It pushed me out of my comfort zone and led to a genuine connection with a local. The kindness of that old man is the most valuable memory I have brought back from Morocco. Sometimes, the wrong turn can lead to the most right moment. 4. Which of the following best shows the author’s first feeling in the souk? A. Bored and disappointed. B. Fascinated yet overwhelmed. C. Frightened but curious. D. Relaxed and at home. 5. What caused the author to get lost? A. He was attracted by a blue door and left the main path. B. He was purposely misled by a local shopkeeper. C. He followed a tour group who suddenly changed routes. D. He was too busy bargaining for a carpet. 6. How did the old shopkeeper help the author? A. He drew a simple map and used gestures. B. He sold him a detailed tourist map. C. He called an English-speaking guide. D. He walked the author back to the hotel. 7. What can be learned from the author’s story? A. Always buy a souvenir to remember a trip. B. Stay on the main path to avoid any trouble. C. Getting lost may bring unexpected kindness. D. Tea culture is the highlight of Morocco. C Advocates of AI chatbots in educational settings say the tools can assist in activities like brainstorming — or help students get started on tough math problems. But many teachers say their students are short of the skills to improve upon what AI produces, or the maturity (成熟) and self-awareness to know where the work of AI ends and their own responsibility begins. A 2024 study of nearly 1,000 high school students put the matter to a test: 9th, 10th, and 11th graders attended a brief math lesson, then practised solving related problems in preparation for a quiz. Some relied on traditional methods — consulting their notes and textbooks to find possible answers — while others had access to a basic version or a tutor version (辅导版) of ChatGPT. The results were a success of technology — until they weren’t. Students using the basic and tutor GPTs scored an astonishing 48 percent and 127 percent better than their peers during the practices, respectively, but when the same students went to get back the information from their memory during a follow-up closed-book test, their math skills had disappeared. Test performance of the students who had used the basic version of ChatGPT dropped so sharply that they scored 17 percent below their peers who had relied on pen and paper. Given the opportunity, students used the software as a “crutch” and often skipped straight to the answer, the researchers concluded. When applied at key moments, the technology actually “runs the risk of blocking learning.” But ChatGPT and other similar AI tools aren’t out of the game. In several studies, the tools performed well when designed to guide student learning-by refusing to give away answers, for example, or asking in-depth follow-up questions. AI is making rapid progress, but isn’t a threat to replace teachers. For now, it’s only as smart as its human makers. 8. What is a problem of students when using AI chatbots? A. They are not aware of how AI chatbots work. B. They lack the ability to employ AI effectively. C. They are incapable of improving AI chatbots. D. They refuse to take their own responsibility. 9. How did GPT users perform compared to students using traditional methods? A. Basic GPT users performed best during the practices. B. Tutor GPT users scored 127% better during the test. C. Basic GPT users’ performance dropped during the test. D. Tutor GPT users scored 17% lower during the practices. 10. What does the underlined word “crutch” mean in paragraph 3? A. A device to help people walk. B. A strategy to deepen learning. C. A tool to improve math skills. D. A shortcut to find quick answers. 11. What are AI tools expected to do in education setting? A. Enhance students’ thinking ability. B. Follow AI designers’ instructions. C. Give in-depth answers instantly. D. Replace traditional teaching methods. D When we see a person in trouble, the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand. But what if we see an animal in trouble, does the same rule apply? This question was raised after a group of penguins (企鹅) were saved from an icy gully (峡谷) in Antarctica. It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties. The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young. They built a slope (斜坡) so that a few of the penguins could save themselves. The case has taken the international media by storm. Viewers watching this film sighed in relief. “I’m so glad. I understand not taking action directly, but a helping hand isn’t bothering, right?” viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook. However, others think human interference (干涉) is unnatural. “You can’t have sunshine throughout your life. To have done anything else would only make matters worse.” said the show’s creator David Attenborough, according to The Times. In this case, however, Mike Gunton, the executive producer of the series, said that this was a one-off situation. “There were no animals going to suffer by interfering. You weren’t touching the animals and it was just felt by doing this ... They had the chance not to have to keep slipping down the slope.” he told the BBC. Such cases are familiar to Paul Nicklen, wildlife photographer for National Geographic. He told Metro, “If it’s ever a predator (捕食者) situation, no matter how gut-wrenching, you stay out of the way. Even when you’ re watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear.” “There’s no rule book in those situations. You can only respond to the facts that are right there in front of you.” Will Lawson, the show’s director, told Daily Mail. 12. What has led to a heated media discussion? A. Some penguins’ sufferings in a gully. B. People’s various opinions on penguins. C. The rescue of penguins from a gully. D. Ways of filming the series Dynasties. 13. What’s David Attenborough’s attitude towards human interference? A. supportive B. unfavorable C. objective D. indifferent 14.

Girls could do many things like hopscotch, jump rope, tetherball, and dodgeball, except high jumping. Only boys could do high jumping. That’s what I wanted to do — high jumping. So I went to the coach. “Girls don’t do high jumping,” the coach said. “Girls have all these other things they can do.” He excitedly described how much fun it would be. I’d been high jumping in the backyard with my five brothers for years. Although I am a girl, I did high jumping pretty well. My brothers could rarely beat me. Whenever my back crossed the bar, that feeling is extremely wonderful. I went home and told my mother what the coach had said. My mother, a small, thin woman only four feet eleven inches tall, said, “I think we should go visit him.” “Visit who?” I asked confusedly. “The headmaster.” “Visit the headmaster?” I was terrified. Would I get in trouble? Would my mother and I be crossing boundaries we shouldn’t cross? My mom and I went to Mr. White’s office. “Linda wants to do the high jump,” my mother said. “Mrs. Martinez, you don’t understand. This is the tradition of our Annual Sports Day,” he said. “But Mr. White, I don’t know where it says that girls cannot do this.” The headmaster couldn’t find any rules that said girls couldn’t do the high jump. “I have to think about this,” he said at last. When we got home, my mom told me something I would always remember: this wasn’t just about me. “Maybe other girls want to do this, too,” she said. My mother waited a week, but still didn’t get the headmaster’s reply. So she walked over to the school again. “Mr. White, please. I ask you this not for me and not for Linda, but let’s just see how it works.” In the end, Mr. White agreed. I stood on the field of the high jumping competition. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, some of the cheers I got were from boys! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
