To preserve it, UNESCO safeguards hundreds of natural and cultural World Heritage sites around the world. Here are 4 World Heritage sites: Historic Centre of Rome Founded, according to legend, by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC, Rome was first the centre of the Roman Republic, then of the Roman Empire, and it became the capital of the Christian world in the 4th century. Ancient City of Damascus Founded in 3000 BC, Damascus is one of the oldest cities in the Middle East. In the Middle Ages, it was the centre of a splendid craft industry, specializing in swords. The city has some 125 monuments from different periods of its history. Old Havana Havana was founded in 1519 by the Spanish. By the 17th century, it had become one of the Caribbean’s main centres for ship-building. Although it is today a modern city, its old centre remains an interesting mix of Baroque and neoclassical (新古典主义的) monuments. Ancient City of Pingyao Pingyao, founded in the 14th century, shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over five centuries. Of special interest are the splendid buildings associated with banking, for which Pingyao was the major centre for the whole of China in the 19th and early 20th centuries. 1. Which of the following was last founded? A. Rome. B. Pingyao. C. Havana. D. Damascus. 2. What can we learn from the text? A. Havana became a modern city in the 16th century. B. Damascus was well-known for its craft industry. C. Pingyao was once the major centre for ships in China. D. Rome was founded by the Spanish. 3. In which section of a magazine can we read the text? A. Culture. B. Nature. C. Education. D. Environment. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了世界上四处世界文化遗产的情况。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Historic Centre of Rome部分中“Founded, according to legend, by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC(据传说，罗马由罗穆卢斯和雷穆斯于公元前753年建立)”；Ancient City of Damascus部分中“Founded in 3000 BC, Damascus is one of the oldest cities in the Middle East.(大马士革建于公元前3000年，是中东最古老的城市之一)”；Old Havana部分中“Havana was founded in 1519 by the Spanish.(哈瓦那于1519年由西班牙人建立)”及Ancient City of Pingyao部分中“Pingyao, founded in the 14th century, shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over five centuries.(始建于14世纪的平遥，展现了五个世纪间中国古代王朝建筑风格与城市规划的演变历程)”可知，Havana是最晚建立的。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ancient City of Damascus部分中“In the Middle Ages, it was the centre of a splendid craft industry, specializing in swords.(在中世纪，它是杰出的手工艺制作的中心，尤其是剑器)”可知，Damascus曾经因为手工艺制作产业而闻名。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Heritage is treasure from the past — what we live with today and what we pass on to future generations. To preserve it, UNESCO safeguards hundreds of natural and cultural World Heritage sites around the world.(遗产是往昔留存的瑰宝，是我们当下赖以存续的根基，亦是我们将传承给子孙后代的财富。为了保护人类共同遗产，联合国教科文组织对全球数百处自然与文化双重世界遗产地进行着保护)”可知，文章核心是介绍四处世界文化遗产，世界遗产属于文化范畴，因此最可能出现在杂志的文化版块。故选A。 B Dr Kit Prendergast discovered the bee species in Perth’s Kings Park and decided to name it after her dog, Zephyr, after noticing the bee had an unusual doglike nose. Bees don’t have noses. They smell with their antennae (触须), so Dr Prendergast said she was “instantly intrigued by the bee’s very unusual face”. “When I went to identify it, I found it matched no described species, and I was sure that if it was a known species it would be quite easy to identify given how unusual it was in appearance,” she said. Dr Prendergast said she had always dreamed of discovering and describing a new species of native bee. When someone discovers and officially and scientifically describes a new species, they also get the right to name it. “You can name it after something descriptive, a location, or even a famous person or someone who is significant in your life — which is exactly what I did,” Dr Prendergast said. The official name of the new bee species is Leioproctus Zephyr. The word Leioproctus identifies the new species as being part of a very large and varied group of native bees and Zephyr, of course, is the name of Dr Prendergast’s dog. Dr Prendergast said she named the new bee after Zephyr because its face looked similar to a dog’s nose, but also because of the emotional support she got from her pet during her PhD studies. “She has been so important to my mental health and happiness during the challenging period of doing a PhD and beyond,” Dr Prendergast said. The discovery of the new species highlighted the importance of conserving urban habitats and planting native flowers. Dr Prendergast had found the Leioproctus Zephyr in only five urban bushland locations in southwest Western Australia. But her discovery meant they could now be protected. 4. What does the underlined phrase “intrigued by” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Interested in. B. Satisfied with. C. Concerned about. D. Amused by. 5. What does Prendergast advise if someone discovers a new species? A. Get official recognition. B. Name it depending on his own will. C. Describe it to the public in a scientific way. D. Invite famous people to give it a name. 6. What can we infer from Prendergast’s words in Paragraph 5? A. Her dog made a difference to her life. B. People should treat their pets seriously. C. She had some problems in getting PhD. D. Mental health shouldn’t be ignored. 7. What can be learned about the new bee species from the text? A. It has an unusual doglike mouth. B. It was first discovered by the dog named Zephyr. C. People can plant flowers from abroad to protect it. D. It was found in southwest Western Australia. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。Kit Prendergast博士在珀斯发现一种长着“狗鼻子”的新蜜蜂，用爱犬Zephyr命名，文章描述发现过程、命名规则，并强调该发现对生态保护的意义。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段第二句中的“They smell with their antennae (它们用触角来嗅气味)”和第三句中的“When I went to identify it, I found it matched no described species, and I was sure that if it was a known species it would be quite easy to identify given how unusual it was in appearance (当我去对其进行鉴定时，我发现它与任何描述的物种都不相符。而且我确信，如果它是一种已知的物种的话，鉴于其外观的奇特之处，应该很容易进行识别的。)”可知，Prendergast博士对这种蜜蜂极为奇特的面部特征产生了兴趣从而进行研究，intrigued by意为“对……产生兴趣”。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“When someone discovers and officially and scientifically describes a new species, they also get the right to name it. “You can name it after something descriptive, a location, or even a famous person or someone who is significant in your life — which is exactly what I did,” Dr Prendergast said.(当有人发现并正式且科学地描述出一个新物种时，他们也就获得了对该物种进行命名的权利。“你可以根据某个描述性的词语、某个地点、甚至是一位名人或者是你生命中重要人物的名字来为其命名——而我就是这么做的。”Prendergast博士说道。)”可知，如果有人发现了一种新物种，Prendergast建议其按照自己的意愿命名它。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段第一句“Dr Prendergast said she named the new bee after Zephyr because its face looked similar to a dog’s nose, but also because of the emotional support she got from her pet during her PhD studies.(Prendergast博士表示，她将这种新蜜蜂命名为“泽弗尔”，是因为它的脸型看起来与狗的鼻子相似，同时这也是因为她博士研究期间从宠物那里获得了情感上的支持。)”可知，Prendergast博士的狗对她的生活有重要意义。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“Dr Prendergast had found the Leioproctus Zephyr in only five urban bushland locations in southwest Western Australia.(Prendergast博士仅在西澳大利亚州西南部的五个城市周边的灌木丛区域发现了这种名为“Leioproctus Zephyr”的生物。)”可知，这种新的蜜蜂物种是在西澳大利亚州西南部被发现的。故选D。 C Researchers in Italy found the more than 2,000-year-old Etruscan and Roman statues in the area of Tuscany. A retired garbage man helped in the discovery of the statues, which lay in mud at the ruins of an ancient spa (矿泉疗养地). Experts called it the biggest collection of ancient bronze (青铜制的) statues ever found in Italy. Some said it was a major finding that would “rewrite history”. Researchers found the statues in 2021 and 2022 in the village of San Casciano dei Bagni. The village still has public baths in operation today. Researchers had long suspected ancient ruins could be discovered at the site. The first few attempts to locate the ancient baths, however, were unsuccessful. Then former garbage man and amateur local historian Stefano Petrini had an idea. He remembered that years earlier he had seen bits of ancient Roman columns on a wall on the other side of the public baths. When Petrini took researchers to the place, they knew they had found the right spot. The statues found there were offerings from Romans and Etruscans who looked to the gods for good health. One of the most amazing finds was the so-called “scrawny boy”, a statue about 90 centimetres high, of a young Roman with a bone disease. A small piece of writing has his name as “Marcius Grabillo”. More unusual offerings were also among smaller objects in the discovery. These included egg shells, pine cones, medical tools and a 2,000-year-old piece of hair. Workers permanently closed the spa about 1,600 years ago. The warm mud of the baths protected the statues. The experts say they may find another six or 12 statues noted in a document found at the site. The archaeologists think that it may have been left by Marcius Grabillo. Petrini hopes the treasures will bring “jobs, culture and knowledge” to his village, which is struggling with depopulation like much of rural Italy. But he does not want to take credit for the discovery. “Important things always happen thanks to several people, never thanks to only one,” he said. “Never.” 8. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The main value of this discovery. B. Identities of the discoverers. C. The process of finding the location. D. The contributions of an amateur historian. 9. What were these discovered statues mainly used for in ancient times? A. Praying for health. B. Recording the death. C. Treating bone diseases. D. Providing unusual offerings. 10. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. The warm mud. B. The ancient site. C. More relevant information. D. The document discovered on the spot. 11. Which of the following can best describe Stefano Petrini? A. Persistent and ambitious. B. Enthusiastic and humble. C. Adventurous and humorous. D. Knowledgeable and fashionable. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了意大利的研究人员在托斯卡纳地区发现了有2000多年历史的伊特鲁里亚和罗马雕像。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Researchers found the statues in 2021 and 2022 in the village of San Casciano dei Bagni. The village still has public baths in operation today. Researchers had long suspected ancient ruins could be discovered at the site. The first few attempts to locate the ancient baths, however, were unsuccessful. Then former garbage man and amateur local historian Stefano Petrini had an idea. He remembered that years earlier he had seen bits of ancient Roman columns on a wall on the other side of the public baths. When Petrini took researchers to the place, they knew they had found the right spot.(研究人员于2021年和2022年在圣卡夏诺-代伊巴尼村发现了这些雕像。该村至今仍在运营公共浴场。长期以来，研究人员一直怀疑该遗址可能藏有古代遗迹。然而，最初几次寻找古浴场的尝试均未成功。后来，曾做过垃圾清运工的当地业余历史学家斯特凡诺·佩特里尼想到了一个办法。他回忆起多年前曾在公共浴场另一侧的一堵墙上见过古罗马立柱的碎片。当佩特里尼带研究人员前往该地时，他们知道自己找对了地方)”可知，本段主要讲述遗迹发现的过程。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The statues found there were offerings from Romans and Etruscans who looked to the gods for good health.(在那里发现的那些雕像，是罗马人和伊特鲁里亚人所献上的祭品，他们祈求神灵赐予他们健康)”可知，发现的雕像在古代主要用于祈求神灵保佑身体健康。故选A。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文中“The experts say they may find another six or 12 statues noted in a document found at the site.(专家表示，他们或许能找到该遗址出土文献中记载的另外 6 到 12 尊雕像。)”可知，画线单词it指代现场发现的文献资料。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Then former garbage man and amateur local historian Stefano Petrini had an idea. He remembered that years earlier he had seen bits of ancient Roman columns on a wall on the other side of the public baths. When Petrini took researchers to the place, they knew they had found the right spot.(后来，曾做过垃圾清运工的当地业余历史学家斯特凡诺·佩特里尼想到了一个办法。他回忆起多年前曾在公共浴场另一侧的一堵墙上见过古罗马立柱的碎片。当佩特里尼带研究人员前往该地时，他们知道自己找对了地方)”和最后一段““Important things always happen thanks to several people, never thanks to only one,” he said. (他说：“重要的事情总是因为多个人的努力才得以实现，而不是仅仅靠一个人的功劳。”)”可知，这位业余的历史爱好者对历史充满热情且为人谦虚，认为功劳不是他一个人的。故选B。 D Imagine purchasing a robot to perform household tasks. This robot was built and trained in a factory on a certain set of tasks and has never seen the items in your home. When you ask it to pick up a cup from your kitchen table, it might not recognize your cup. So, the robot fails. “Right now, the way we train these robots, when they fail, we don’t really know why. So you would just throw up your hands and say, ‘OK, I guess we have to start over.’ A critical component that is missing from this system is enabling the robot to demonstrate why it is failing so the user can give it feedback,” says Andi Peng, an electrical engineering and computer science (EECS) graduate student at MIT. Peng and her collaborators at MIT, New York University, and the University of California at Berkeley created a framework that enables humans to quickly teach a robot what they want it to do, with a minimal amount of effort. The researchers tested this technique in simulations and found that it could teach a robot more efficiently than other methods. The robots trained with this framework performed better, while the training process consumed less of a human’s time. More importantly, this framework could help robots learn faster in new environments without requiring a user to have technical knowledge. Robots often fail due to distribution shift. One way to retrain a robot for a specific task is imitation learning. The user could demonstrate the correct task to teach the robot what to do. If a user tries to teach a robot to pick up a cup, but demonstrates with a white cup, the robot could learn that all cups are white. It may then fail to pick up a red or blue cup. “We want robots to do what humans do, and we want them to do it in a meaningful way. At the end of the day, this is really about enabling a robot to learn a good, human-like representation at an abstract level,” Peng says. 12. What may the user do if his robot fails according to the text? A. Let the robot try it again. B. Show it around his kitchen. C. Analyse why the robot failed. D. Give feedback to robot producers. 13. What’s the most important feature about Peng’s framework? A. It requires users to spend much time teaching robots. B. It helps robots distinguish red cups from white cups. C. It enables robots to adapt to new surroundings better. D. It requires robot users to grasp technical knowledge. 14. What will robots be expected to do according to Peng? A. Replace humans to do dangerous tasks. B. Serve humans in a positive way. C. Look like humans even more. D. Obey humans’ order successfully. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Robots Aren’t Experienced in Household Tasks B. Imitation Learning Is of Importance for Robots C. Robots Can’t Completely Meet Human’s Needs D. New Technique Upgrades Robots Who Failed to Do Tasks 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了彭及其合作者们构建的一个框架，这个技术能够升级失败机器人，通过新技术解决机器人失败问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的““Right now, the way we train these robots, when they fail, we don’t really know why. So you would just throw up your hands and say, ‘OK, I guess we have to start over.’ A critical component that is missing from this system is enabling the robot to demonstrate why it is failing so the user can give it feedback,” says Andi Peng, an electrical engineering and computer science (EECS) graduate student at MIT. (麻省理工学院电子工程与计算机科学专业研究生安迪·彭表示：“目前我们训练这些机器人的方式存在一个问题——当它们出现故障时，我们其实并不清楚具体原因。这种情况下，你只能束手无策，然后说‘好吧，看来我们得重新开始了’。这套系统缺少一个关键组成部分，那就是让机器人能够说明自身故障的原因，这样用户才能据此为它提供反馈。”)”可知，如果用户的机器人出现故障，可以让机器人重新开始训练。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“More importantly, this framework could help robots learn faster in new environments without requiring a user to have technical knowledge.(更重要的是，这种框架能够帮助机器人在新的环境中更快地学习，而无需用户具备技术知识。)”可知，彭的框架最重要的特点是它使得机器人能够更好地适应新的环境。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“We want robots to do what humans do, and we want them to do it in a meaningful way.(我们希望机器人能够完成人类所从事的工作，并且希望这些工作能够具有一定的意义性。)”可知，彭期待机器人以积极的方式服务人类。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Imagine purchasing a robot to perform household tasks. This robot was built and trained in a factory on a certain set of tasks and has never seen the items in your home. When you ask it to pick up a cup from your kitchen table, it might not recognize your cup. So, the robot fails.(想象一下，你购买了一台机器人来承担家务任务。这台机器人是在一家工厂里按照特定的任务要求进行制造和训练的，它从未见过你家里的物品。当你让它从厨房桌子上拿起一个杯子时，它可能无法认出你的杯子。所以，机器人就无法完成任务了。)”和第三段“Peng and her collaborators at MIT, New York University, and the University of California at Berkeley created a framework that enables humans to quickly teach a robot what they want it to do, with a minimal amount of effort.(彭及其在麻省理工学院、纽约大学和加州大学伯克利分校的合作者们构建了一个框架，使得人类能够以极小的精力快速教会机器人他们希望机器人完成的任务。)”可知，文章主要介绍了彭及其合作者们构建的一个框架，这个技术能够升级失败机器人，通过新技术解决机器人失败问题。故选D。 第二节（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。 Nearly everyone is shy in some ways. ___16___ You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors and psychologists. ___17___ What you have to say is just as important as what other people say.

Some of these are famous, but Singapore has one special way,___36___ you may not know about. Each year, cooks across the country prepare yu sheng, a salad made with raw fish. The salad is placed at the centre of a dinner table. Diners will gather around and use their chopsticks ___37___(throw) the salad up into the air. This practice is known ___38___ Lo Hei. Since its origins as ___39___ simple raw fish dish back in the 1930s，the recipe has undergone a series of transformations, and even until today, people are still finding innovative ways to present this dish. The dish ___40___(bring)to Singapore in the late 19th century by the migrants from China. “Lo Hei”, in Cantonese (广东话)___41___ (literal) translates to “tossing (掷) up good fortune”, and it refers to the ritual (仪式) adopted in Singapore that involves a group of people gathered around a ___42___(mass) plate, tossing its contents violently while saying out lucky___43___(phrase) before eating it. For example, when the golden crackers (薄脆饼干) are added, everyone will say “bian di huang jin”. This ___44___(mean) “the entire floor will be covered with gold”. Also, it is popularly believed that the higher the toss, the ____45____(good) your prospects and fortune in the year ahead. 【答案】36. which 37. to throw 38. as 39. a 40. was brought 41. literally 42. massive 43. phrases 44. means 45. better 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新加坡农历新年期间的一个传统——捞鱼生。 【36题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：其中一些是著名的，但新加坡有一种特殊的方式，你可能不知道。此处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词way，关系词在从句中作宾语，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：每年，全国各地的厨师都会准备用生鱼做成的沙拉“鱼生”。分析语境可知，此处结构为use sth.to do sth.。意指“吃饭的人会聚在一起用筷子来把沙拉向上扔到空中”，因此用throw的不定式形式。故填to throw。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：这种做法被称为Lo Hei。be known as为固定搭配，意为“被称为……”符合句意。故填as。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：自20世纪30年代作为一道简单的生鱼片起源以来，这道菜的食谱经历了一系列的转变，直到今天，人们仍在寻找创新的方式来呈现这道菜，分析语境可知，此处单词表示数量“一”的含义，泛指任何一道源于20世纪30年代的简单的生鱼菜，因此用不定冠词，simple词首音素是辅音音素，因此不定冠词用a。故填a。 【40题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：这道菜是19世纪末由中国移民带到新加坡的。根据所给单词可知，本句指“这种菜在19世纪晚期被来自中国的移民带到了新加坡”，本句主语dish和bring之间是被动关系，因此用被动语态，再根据时间状语“in the later 19th century”可知，此处描述的是过去发生的动作，因此be动词用过去式was。故填was brought。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：“Lo Hei”在广东话中的字面意思是“抛起好运”，它指的是新加坡的一种仪式，一群人围在一个巨大的盘子周围，猛烈地扔盘子里的东西，同时在吃之前说出吉利的短语。此处作状语，修饰动词translate，因此用literal的对应副词literally。故填literally。 【42题详解】 考查形容词。句意：“Lo Hei”在广东话中的字面意思是“抛起好运”，它指的是新加坡的一种仪式，一群人围在一个巨大的盘子周围，猛烈地扔盘子里的东西，同时在吃之前说出吉利的短语。分析语境可知，此处作定语，意指“一个大盘子”，因此用mass的对应形容词massive。故填massive。 【43题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：“Lo Hei”在广东话中的字面意思是“抛起好运”，它指的是新加坡的一种仪式，一群人围在一个巨大的盘子周围，猛烈地扔盘子里的东西，同时在吃之前说出吉利的短语。此处指人们说出的多个吉利的短语，因此phrase用复数形式。故填phrases。 【44题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致，句意：例如，当加上金色的饼干时，每个人都会说“扁地黄金”。这意味着“整个地板都将被黄金覆盖”。这个短语的意思是“整个地板都会被黄金覆盖”，本句描述的是客观事实，因此用一般现在时，this相当于单数第三人称，因此谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填means。 【45题详解】 考查比较级。句意：因此，人们普遍认为，掷硬币越高，你在未来一年的前景和财富就越好。联系上文“the higher the toss”可知，此处为固定句式“the more... the more...”，因此用good的比较级，意指“抛得越高，你来年的运势就会越好。” 故填better。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是班长李华，下周五你班将和外籍学生一起乘车前往生态果园 (Ecological Orchard) 进行秋季劳动日实践活动，现请你书面通知他们这一安排，内容包括： 1. 活动时间和地点； 2. 具体事项安排； 3. 其他提醒。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Notice ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Li Hua 【答案】 Notice I’m Li Hua, the monitor.

They used the piggy bank as a toy. Later, when Sunshine grew older, they would pour out coins and play games. When they had small change, they took the coins back and put them in the money storage tank. enjoying it tirelessly. What they lack is not money, but a good habit. The little girl has always believed in this concept: even if you are rich, you should be careful with your money. Two weeks ago, the 7-year-old girl emptied her piggy bank onto the living room floor after school and immediately started counting. Jackie thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins. but then she saw the girl put the coins into a plastic bag and place it in her backpack.

Jackie decided to find out why the little girl broke into her savings. “What are you doing with that money?” Jackie asked her granddaughter with a smile. “I’m taking it to school.” Sunshine replied without looking. She seemed to struggle before talking to her grandma. The little girl finally stated the real reason why she needed the money. “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mum doesn’t have milk money and I do.” As a special guest, Jackie once went to participate in activities organized at Sunshine’s school.

To her surprise, dozens of people offered to donate to the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1,000. Now every student in Sunshine’s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.

To preserve it, UNESCO safeguards hundreds of natural and cultural World Heritage sites around the world. Here are 4 World Heritage sites: Historic Centre of Rome Founded, according to legend, by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC, Rome was first the centre of the Roman Republic, then of the Roman Empire, and it became the capital of the Christian world in the 4th century. Ancient City of Damascus Founded in 3000 BC, Damascus is one of the oldest cities in the Middle East. In the Middle Ages, it was the centre of a splendid craft industry, specializing in swords. The city has some 125 monuments from different periods of its history. Old Havana Havana was founded in 1519 by the Spanish. By the 17th century, it had become one of the Caribbean’s main centres for ship-building. Although it is today a modern city, its old centre remains an interesting mix of Baroque and neoclassical (新古典主义的) monuments. Ancient City of Pingyao Pingyao, founded in the 14th century, shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over five centuries. Of special interest are the splendid buildings associated with banking, for which Pingyao was the major centre for the whole of China in the 19th and early 20th centuries. 1. Which of the following was last founded? A. Rome. B. Pingyao. C. Havana. D. Damascus. 2. What can we learn from the text? A. Havana became a modern city in the 16th century. B. Damascus was well-known for its craft industry. C. Pingyao was once the major centre for ships in China. D. Rome was founded by the Spanish. 3. In which section of a magazine can we read the text? A. Culture. B. Nature. C. Education. D. Environment. B Dr Kit Prendergast discovered the bee species in Perth’s Kings Park and decided to name it after her dog, Zephyr, after noticing the bee had an unusual doglike nose. Bees don’t have noses. They smell with their antennae (触须), so Dr Prendergast said she was “instantly intrigued by the bee’s very unusual face”. “When I went to identify it, I found it matched no described species, and I was sure that if it was a known species it would be quite easy to identify given how unusual it was in appearance,” she said. Dr Prendergast said she had always dreamed of discovering and describing a new species of native bee. When someone discovers and officially and scientifically describes a new species, they also get the right to name it. “You can name it after something descriptive, a location, or even a famous person or someone who is significant in your life — which is exactly what I did,” Dr Prendergast said. The official name of the new bee species is Leioproctus Zephyr. The word Leioproctus identifies the new species as being part of a very large and varied group of native bees and Zephyr, of course, is the name of Dr Prendergast’s dog. Dr Prendergast said she named the new bee after Zephyr because its face looked similar to a dog’s nose, but also because of the emotional support she got from her pet during her PhD studies. “She has been so important to my mental health and happiness during the challenging period of doing a PhD and beyond,” Dr Prendergast said. The discovery of the new species highlighted the importance of conserving urban habitats and planting native flowers. Dr Prendergast had found the Leioproctus Zephyr in only five urban bushland locations in southwest Western Australia. But her discovery meant they could now be protected. 4. What does the underlined phrase “intrigued by” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Interested in. B. Satisfied with. C. Concerned about. D. Amused by. 5. What does Prendergast advise if someone discovers a new species? A. Get official recognition. B. Name it depending on his own will. C. Describe it to the public in a scientific way. D. Invite famous people to give it a name. 6. What can we infer from Prendergast’s words in Paragraph 5? A. Her dog made a difference to her life. B. People should treat their pets seriously. C. She had some problems in getting PhD. D. Mental health shouldn’t be ignored. 7. What can be learned about the new bee species from the text? A. It has an unusual doglike mouth. B. It was first discovered by the dog named Zephyr. C. People can plant flowers from abroad to protect it. D. It was found in southwest Western Australia. C Researchers in Italy found the more than 2,000-year-old Etruscan and Roman statues in the area of Tuscany. A retired garbage man helped in the discovery of the statues, which lay in mud at the ruins of an ancient spa (矿泉疗养地). Experts called it the biggest collection of ancient bronze (青铜制的) statues ever found in Italy. Some said it was a major finding that would “rewrite history”. Researchers found the statues in 2021 and 2022 in the village of San Casciano dei Bagni. The village still has public baths in operation today. Researchers had long suspected ancient ruins could be discovered at the site. The first few attempts to locate the ancient baths, however, were unsuccessful. Then former garbage man and amateur local historian Stefano Petrini had an idea. He remembered that years earlier he had seen bits of ancient Roman columns on a wall on the other side of the public baths. When Petrini took researchers to the place, they knew they had found the right spot. The statues found there were offerings from Romans and Etruscans who looked to the gods for good health. One of the most amazing finds was the so-called “scrawny boy”, a statue about 90 centimetres high, of a young Roman with a bone disease. A small piece of writing has his name as “Marcius Grabillo”. More unusual offerings were also among smaller objects in the discovery. These included egg shells, pine cones, medical tools and a 2,000-year-old piece of hair. Workers permanently closed the spa about 1,600 years ago. The warm mud of the baths protected the statues. The experts say they may find another six or 12 statues noted in a document found at the site. The archaeologists think that it may have been left by Marcius Grabillo. Petrini hopes the treasures will bring “jobs, culture and knowledge” to his village, which is struggling with depopulation like much of rural Italy. But he does not want to take credit for the discovery. “Important things always happen thanks to several people, never thanks to only one,” he said. “Never.” 8. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The main value of this discovery. B. Identities of the discoverers. C. The process of finding the location. D. The contributions of an amateur historian. 9. What were these discovered statues mainly used for in ancient times? A. Praying for health. B. Recording the death. C. Treating bone diseases. D. Providing unusual offerings. 10. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. The warm mud. B. The ancient site. C. More relevant information. D. The document discovered on the spot. 11. Which of the following can best describe Stefano Petrini? A. Persistent and ambitious. B. Enthusiastic and humble. C. Adventurous and humorous. D. Knowledgeable and fashionable. D Imagine purchasing a robot to perform household tasks. This robot was built and trained in a factory on a certain set of tasks and has never seen the items in your home. When you ask it to pick up a cup from your kitchen table, it might not recognize your cup. So, the robot fails. “Right now, the way we train these robots, when they fail, we don’t really know why. So you would just throw up your hands and say, ‘OK, I guess we have to start over.’ A critical component that is missing from this system is enabling the robot to demonstrate why it is failing so the user can give it feedback,” says Andi Peng, an electrical engineering and computer science (EECS) graduate student at MIT. Peng and her collaborators at MIT, New York University, and the University of California at Berkeley created a framework that enables humans to quickly teach a robot what they want it to do, with a minimal amount of effort. The researchers tested this technique in simulations and found that it could teach a robot more efficiently than other methods. The robots trained with this framework performed better, while the training process consumed less of a human’s time. More importantly, this framework could help robots learn faster in new environments without requiring a user to have technical knowledge. Robots often fail due to distribution shift. One way to retrain a robot for a specific task is imitation learning. The user could demonstrate the correct task to teach the robot what to do. If a user tries to teach a robot to pick up a cup, but demonstrates with a white cup, the robot could learn that all cups are white. It may then fail to pick up a red or blue cup. “We want robots to do what humans do, and we want them to do it in a meaningful way. At the end of the day, this is really about enabling a robot to learn a good, human-like representation at an abstract level,” Peng says. 12.
