Shi Ming leads an interesting life. By day, she is a gentle traditional Chinese medicine doctor. She helps her patients relax and feel better at a hospital in Kunming. But when she steps into the MMA ring (综合格斗擂台), she changes into a fighter.
Shi’s journey of martial arts (武术) began at the age of 13. She started learning taekwondo because she thought the uniforms and kicks were cool. Later, she came across MMA while studying in college.
The sport caught her interest, and she trained even harder. Her hard work paid off when she entered the “Road to UFC” competition and won. This victory earned her a place in the UFC’s strawweight division (草量级), where she now competes with well-known fighters like Zhang Weili.
Even though Shi is smaller than many of her opponents, she is not afraid. Her coach, Bagher Amanolahi, has helped her develop the right plans and skills over six years of nonstop training. This training gave her the confidence to win, and it surprised many people when she achieved such success, including her parents who were amazed by her MMA performance in Macau and proud of her achievements.
Shi is set on continuing her journey in MMA. She wants to win a world championship and she is ready to put her medical career (事业) on hold to reach this goal. She knows that with hard work and the right mindset, she can succeed.
“A lot of friends worry about me in the Octagon, because I am small, even for this division, and I have bad eyesight,” said Shi, who has to wear glasses when she’s not fighting. “But in the Octagon, I am the boss. I decide how the match is going to go and how the fight is going to be.”
58. What does Shi Ming do in the daytime?
A. A doctor. B. A patient. C. A fighter. D. A nurse.
59. What does the underlined word “opponents” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Coaches. B. Competitors. C. Patients. D. Friends.
60. Put the events about Shi Ming into the correct order according to the passage.
a. She first showed interest in MMA.
b. She began to learn taekwondo.
c. Her MMA performance in Macau surprised her parents.

Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? A team of scientists from the University of California might have some answers. In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined!
①________
The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.
②________
Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile! However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team.
③________
Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its mood—like a “cat translator”.
Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face!
63. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By giving numbers. B. By telling a story. C. By showing some facts. D. By asking a question.
64. Which of the following uses the most facial movements?
A. Cats. B. Humans. C. Dogs. D. Tigers.
65. Match the title with each part.
a. Why Does This Matter? b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?
c. How Did They Study Cats? d. Future Research on Cat Communication.
A. ①-a ②-b ③-d B. ①-b ②-c ③-a C. ①-c ②-b ③-d D. ①-d ②-b ③-c
66. What might the scientists do next?
A. Keep on studying to know more about cats.
B. Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other.
C. Build an animal shelter to look after cats.
D. Use an app to study cats’ expressions.
67. What would be the best structure of the passage?

【64题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.”可知,人类使用的面部动作最多,共44个,而猫使用26个,狗使用27个,文中未提及老虎。故选B。
【65题详解】
推理判断题。①处下文主要介绍了科学家们如何研究猫的面部表情,包括观察猫、录制视频、使用FACS系统等,所以①处应匹配标题“How Did They Study Cats?”;②处下文主要介绍了记录的猫的表情中友好和愤怒的比例,以及友好和愤怒的猫的具体面部表现,所以②处应匹配标题“Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?”;③处下文主要介绍了这项研究的意义以及未来的研究计划,所以③处应匹配标题“Future Research on Cat Communication.”。故选C。
【66题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding.”可知,科学家们计划在其他地方继续研究猫,以提高他们的理解,即继续研究以更多地了解猫。故选A。
【67题详解】
篇章结构题。文章第一段通过提出问题引出主题;第二、三、四段分别介绍了研究方法、猫面部表情的分类以及研究的意义;第五段介绍了未来的研究计划。所以文章结构为总分总,与C选项结构相符。故选C。

There are many animals that glow (发光) in some way—including several kinds of insects and fish. Some kinds of mushrooms glow, too. But plants don’t glow. Now, scientists are working to change that.
When a living thing gives off a glow, it’s called bioluminescence (生物发光). Fireflies are a well-known example of bioluminescence. Though less well-known, many mushrooms are also bioluminescent. These bioluminescent creatures light up thanks to the luciferins (荧光素) in their bodies.
Plants don’t naturally have luciferins, ________. But that hasn’t stopped scientists from trying to create them. In the past, scientists have created dimly (微暗地) glowing plants by adding DNA from glowing objects. Scientists have also created glowing plants by adding luciferins to plants. But it only works as long as the chemicals last. In 2017, a team was able to cause a plant to glow for about four hours.
Now, researchers at a Russian company have come up with a new method to create glowing plants which last as long as the plants are alive. By adding certain parts of the DNA from glowing mushrooms to ordinary tobacco plants, the researchers were able to create plants that could make their own luciferins. The scientists reported that the light was about 10 times brighter than in earlier glowing plants.
The researchers believe that glowing plants could help scientists learn more about how plants work. For example, waves of light in the plants may show activities in plants that normally can’t be seen. The glowing also helps show how plants may be affected by things around them. For example, the plants glowed more strongly when a ripe (成熟的) banana skin was nearby. But the researchers don’t think the plants will just be used for science. They think many people may want glowing plants for their beauty. So they are working with a company to develop glowing plants for sale.
68. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Several kinds of insects and fish can glow. B. Some kinds of mushrooms glow.
C. Fireflies can naturally glow. D. Plants don’t give off a glow.
69. Which of the following is the best to fill in the “________” in Paragraph 3?
A. so scientists are trying hard to create some glowing plants
B. because the luciferins are so important to them
C. and scientists don’t know why it happens
D. so there are no naturally bioluminescent plants
70. What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
A. The harmful influence of glowing plants.
B. The uses of glowing plants.
C. The natural glow of all plants near fruits.
D. The efforts of researchers all over the world.
71. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The glowing plants are helpful to scientific studies.
B. Many people want to buy glowing plants for their scientific value.
C. Scientists have created glowing plants which can last forever.
D. A company has sold many glowing plants.
72. What’s the writing purpose of the text?
A. To compare glowing animals and plants.
B. To introduce glowing plants’ development and uses.
C. To warn about the dangers of glowing plants.
D. To explain how to protect glowing plants.
【答案】68. D 69. D 70. B 71. A 72. B

You’re chatting with a friend and want to suggest a good book. All of a sudden, you can’t remember the title! The harder you try to remember, the more it eludes(使不记得)you. We’ve all been there, and everyone knows how hard it is to remember all the information in your head. ____73____
●Repeat important information out loud. ____74____ When you repeat something out loud, you aren’t technically memorizing it. You’re actually creating a pattern(方式)and sound that will make the information easier to remember in the future.
●____75____ Turn the TV off while you study and put down the phone while you’re driving. When you do different activities at the same time, your attention is divided, which will make it hard to process(处理)the information necessary to remember what you’re doing.
●Take notes and write things down. Taking notes will help you memorize the information, even if you never look at your notes again! ____76____ So you’d better use pens and paper if you really want to remember your friend’s birthday or an important meeting.
●Take a short walk. Studies show that taking a walk will increase your memory. If you’re trying to remember something, spend a few minutes walking around your neighborhood to see if it helps. ____77____ At best, you’ll remember the name of that life-changing book from primary school!

A Valuable Lesson from Failure
Life is full of challenges, and I once faced a big failure. Let me share this experience.
Last term, I failed an important English exam. I studied hard but failed. I felt upset and wanted to give up. However, my teacher encouraged me, saying failure is the mother of success and helping me. I followed her advice, worked harder, and spent two extra hours on English each weekend. I also asked for help. After months of work, I made great progress.
From this experience, I’ve learnt failure isn’t terrible. What matters is facing it bravely and keeping trying. Where there is a will, there is a way. It will help me become a better person.

“A lot of friends worry about me in the Octagon, because I am small, even for this division, and I have bad eyesight,” said Shi, who has to wear glasses when she’s not fighting. “But in the Octagon, I am the boss. I decide how the match is going to go and how the fight is going to be.”

Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? A team of scientists from the University of California might have some answers. In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined!
①________
The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.
②________
Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile! However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team.
③________
Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its mood—like a “cat translator”.
Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face!
63. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By giving numbers. B. By telling a story. C. By showing some facts. D. By asking a question.
64. Which of the following uses the most facial movements?
A. Cats. B. Humans. C. Dogs. D. Tigers.
65. Match the title with each part.
a. Why Does This Matter? b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?
c. How Did They Study Cats? d. Future Research on Cat Communication.
A. ①-a ②-b ③-d B. ①-b ②-c ③-a C. ①-c ②-b ③-d D. ①-d ②-b ③-c
66. What might the scientists do next?
A. Keep on studying to know more about cats.
B. Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other.
C. Build an animal shelter to look after cats.
D. Use an app to study cats’ expressions.
67. What would be the best structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
D
There are many animals that glow (发光) in some way—including several kinds of insects and fish. Some kinds of mushrooms glow, too. But plants don’t glow. Now, scientists are working to change that.
When a living thing gives off a glow, it’s called bioluminescence (生物发光). Fireflies are a well-known example of bioluminescence. Though less well-known, many mushrooms are also bioluminescent. These bioluminescent creatures light up thanks to the luciferins (荧光素) in their bodies.
Plants don’t naturally have luciferins, ________. But that hasn’t stopped scientists from trying to create them. In the past, scientists have created dimly (微暗地) glowing plants by adding DNA from glowing objects. Scientists have also created glowing plants by adding luciferins to plants. But it only works as long as the chemicals last. In 2017, a team was able to cause a plant to glow for about four hours.
Now, researchers at a Russian company have come up with a new method to create glowing plants which last as long as the plants are alive. By adding certain parts of the DNA from glowing mushrooms to ordinary tobacco plants, the researchers were able to create plants that could make their own luciferins. The scientists reported that the light was about 10 times brighter than in earlier glowing plants.
The researchers believe that glowing plants could help scientists learn more about how plants work. For example, waves of light in the plants may show activities in plants that normally can’t be seen. The glowing also helps show how plants may be affected by things around them. For example, the plants glowed more strongly when a ripe (成熟的) banana skin was nearby. But the researchers don’t think the plants will just be used for science. They think many people may want glowing plants for their beauty. So they are working with a company to develop glowing plants for sale.
68. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Several kinds of insects and fish can glow. B. Some kinds of mushrooms glow.
C. Fireflies can naturally glow. D. Plants don’t give off a glow.
69. Which of the following is the best to fill in the “________” in Paragraph 3?
A. so scientists are trying hard to create some glowing plants
B. because the luciferins are so important to them
C. and scientists don’t know why it happens
D. so there are no naturally bioluminescent plants
70. What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
A. The harmful influence of glowing plants.
B. The uses of glowing plants.
C. The natural glow of all plants near fruits.
D. The efforts of researchers all over the world.
71. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The glowing plants are helpful to scientific studies.
B. Many people want to buy glowing plants for their scientific value.
C. Scientists have created glowing plants which can last forever.
D. A company has sold many glowing plants.
72. What’s the writing purpose of the text?
A. To compare glowing animals and plants.
B. To introduce glowing plants’ development and uses.
C. To warn about the dangers of glowing plants.
D. To explain how to protect glowing plants.
