Irish seaweed bathing If any nation has unlocked the full potential of seaweed,it's Ireland.(1) (early)records so far show the sixth-century monks living on Skellig Michael off the southwest coast already made use of it,collecting wild seaweed to eat and fertilise their rocky gardens.By around the 1800s,west coast farmers(2). (make)a new discovery:while gathering seaweed to fertilise their crops,their skin diseases magically improved,for(3)reason the art of seaweed bathing was born. The Victorians were pros,the practice(4) (lead)to the creation of some 300 seaweed-dedicated bathhouses across the country.Bathers would soak in tubs filled with near-boiling Atlantic seawater,to which fresh,local seaweed would be added (5) (steam).This allowed the seaweed's essential oils to infiuse ( the water,and a long soak calmed bathers'skin.Around the mid-1900s,though, seaweed bathing fell out of fashion with both locals and travellers.Just over a decade ago,only two bathhouses remained. Studies have since shown(6). the practice does,in fact,hold weight: seaweed's bioactive compounds,released as oil when added to boiling water,can indeed calm the skin.And,(7) a renewed focus across Ireland on celebrating traditional heritage,seaweed is back on the menu-appearing everywhere from Waterford to Donegal and in hotel spas to simple bathhouses. In County Slig,Cullen Seaweed Baths is the oldest of its kind:a fifth-generation, family-run operation that hand-harvests wild seaweed,(8) it has since opening in 1912.The venue that initiated the latest revival is Voya Seaweed Baths,which opened in 2000,launching an award-winning line of seaweed-infused prod山cts. In the past few years,(9)have been joined by a bevy (of openings. At Wild Atlantic Seaweed Baths,you can bathe beside the Cliffs of Moher.Beachside Dingle Wellness has organic seaweed treatments,while Connemara Seaweed Baths offers the treatment alongside saunas )Hotels including The Twelve are expanding their spas to offer the experience,too.Seaweed's popularity (10) have started with a colony of hardy monks,but the humble seaweed is now riding a wellness wave. Section B Directions:Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.Each word can be used only once.Note that there is one word more than you need A.amateuir B.bathed C.bouncing B.crawl E.defining P.further G.intervening H.literally I.livestream J.missions K.undisturbed Going Back to the Moon On 17 January,after years of delays,the towering SLS rocket that will carry the first astronauts to the Moon in over half a century finally rolled out of the Vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center.The Artemis vehicle,11 in early morning sunshine,headed for its launch pad.More delays and a roll back to the assembly building for repairs came later,but for me this was amoment. I sat in front of my television for hours with my cat draped across my lap. watching NASA's 13 of the rocket's progress to the pad.The cat was totally unimpressed,and I know that for those who,like her,are not 'into space',watching a rocket's oh-so-slow14to its destination was probably about as stimulating as watching a tortoise watching paint dry.But I was deeply moved. Why?Because I've waited decades to see that rocket heading for its pad. I wasn't even born when Apollo 8 rounded the Moon,and I was just starting school when the later Apollo 16 reached the Moon,and have vivid memories of the whole school sitting on the hard,cold floor in front of The School Television.It was watching the grainy footage of those astronauts 17 about on that TV screen that first lit the pilot light of my fascination with space. When Apollo 17 left the Moon,I was sad-but excited too.After all,everyone was saying we'd be back soon and that nuclear-powered spaceships would be carrying astronauts to Mars in 1982,by which time I'd be a teenager. But that future never happened.After Apollo 17,we abandoned the Moon, leaving the flags and footprints of the Apollo heroes 1 for decades.I grew up to become a(n)19 astronomer and science writer,covering one cancelled lunar exploration programme after another.As I wrote article after article telling kids how astronauts could be back on the Moon "soon",I felt the retumn to the Moon getting 20 away,not closer as it was supposed to. 'But watching that SLS rolling to its pad,I was able to really believe that it won't be long before I'll finally be able to go out into my yard,look up at the Moon shining above and say,"There are people flying around that..." II.Reading Comprehension Section A Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A.B.C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fitsthe context The days of the camera-carrying tourist may be numbered.Insensitive travelers are being ordered to 21pointing their cameras at local residents.Tour companies selling expensive trips to remote corners of the world have become increasingly annoyed at the 22 of visitors upsetting locals.Now one such operator plans to ban'clients from taking any photographic equipment on holidays.Julian Matthews is the director of Discovery Initiatives,a company that is working hand-in-hand with other organisations to offer holidays combining high adventure with working on environmental projects. Matthews says he is providing 'holidays without23',insisting that Discovery Initiatives is not a tour operator but an environmental support company. Clients are referred to as 'participants'.'We see ourselves as the next step on from eco-tourism,which is merely a(n)24form of sensitive travel-ours is a more active approach.' However,says Matthews,there is a price to pay.'I am planning to introduce tours with a total ban on cameras because of the damage they do to our relationships with 25I have seen some 26things,such as a group of six tourists arriving ata remote village in the South American jungle,each with a video camera attached to their face.That sort of thing tears me up inside.Would you like somebody to come into your home and take a photo of you cooking?A camera is like a weapon;it puts up a barrier and you lose all the 27 that comes through body language,which 28means that the host communities are denied access to the so-called cross-cultural exchange.' Matthews'views reflect a growing 29 among some tour companies at the increasingly rude behaviour of wealthy tourists.Chris Parrott,of Journey Latin America,says:'We tell our clients that indigenous (people are often shy about being30,but we certainly don't tell them not to take a camera.If they take pictures without asking,they may find themselves having tomatoes thrown at them.' Crispin Jones,of Exodus,the overland truck specialist,says:We don't have() 31but,should cameras cause offence,our tour leaders will make it quite clear that they cannot be32.Clients tend to do what they are told.' Earthwatch,which pioneered the 33 of active eco-tourism by sending paying volunteers to work on scientific projects around the world,does not ban cameras,but operates strict rules on their use.Ed Wilson,the marketing director of the company, says:'Some people use the camera as barrier;it allows them to distance themselves from the reality of what they 34.I would like to see tourists 35 their cameras for once,rather than trying to record everything they see.' 21.A.consider B.stop C.practise D.mind 22.A.edge B.expense C.bottom D.sight 23.A.surprise B.limit C.doubt D.guilt 24.A.passive B.simple C.inexpensive 25.A.guides B.locals D.innovative C.tourists D.specialists 26.A.routine B.interesting C.terrible B.passion D.personal 27.A.protection C.communication 28.A.effectively B.accidentally D.dignity C.comparatively D.optimistically 29.A.unease B.feeling C.awareness D.despair 30.A.misunderstood B.witnessed C.sponsored D.photographed 31.A.expcricnce B.policy C.market D.intention 32.A.offended B.used C.judged D.deserted 33.A.change B.benefit C.concept D.history 34.A.say B.hear C.do D.see 35、A.turning up B.looking after C.putting away D.running out Section B Directions:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Charles Blackmore led an expedition across one of the last unexplored places on earth,the Taklamakan Desert in western China.His team was composed of four Britons,an American photographer,four Chinese,30 camels and six camel handlers. It later tumned out that the camel handlers had never worked with camels before,but were long-distance lorry drivers:a misunderstanding that could have cost everyone their lives and certainly affected the expeditions'success.This mixed bunch set out to cross 1,200 kilometres of the world's most deserted desert and Charles Blackmore has written a book for their journey. At the time,he was about to leave the Army after 14 happy years.He launched the expedition for fun,to fill a gap in his life,to prove something.'I had always assumed I'd spend my whole lie in the Army.I had been offered promotion but suddenly I felt I wanted to see who Charles Blackmore really was,outside all that.It was a tremendous gamble.Tina,my wife,was very worried that I wouldn't come back as nobody had ever done that route:we went into it blind.In the event,it took59 days to cross from west to east,and the desert was very kind to us.' Anyone reading his extraordinary account of the crossing will wonder at the use of the word'kind'.The team suffered unspeakable hardships:extremes of temperature; severe thirst;the loss of part of their precious water supply...'But',Blackmore explains,'when we were at the limits of our own endurance and the camels had gone without water for seven days,we managed o find sme.We didn'txpere the Taklakegeryds.And weever hit the raw biting dese cod that would have totaly immobilisd usThat's not to say that wewerenfighting diffcutis the whole time.Thefinesad got into everythng Theigh() were difficult to climb,for us and for the camels,which often rolled over onto us.' 'What drove me on more than anything else was the need to survive.We had no alternative plan.Neither our budget nor time allowed one.No aircraft ever flew over us.Once we got into the sandhills we were completely on our own If it was like that at the beginning,how did they feel towards the end?'When you've walked for 1,000 kilometres you're not going to duck out.You've endured so much;you've got so much behind you.We were very thin,but very muscular despite our physical exhaustion. 36.When the expedition members set off,some of them A.presented an unexpected risk B.disagreed with each other C.were doubtful of success D.went on ahead of the others 37.Charles Blackmore had decided to set up the expedition because A.he was certain he could complete it B.he wanted to write a book C.his aims in life had changed D.his self-confidence was low 38 Which of the following best describes the team's experience of the desert? A.They were not able to have enough rest. B.It presented continual difficulties. C.They sometimes could not make any progress at all. D.It was worse than they had expected. 39.According to Blackmore,what enabled him to finish the expedition? A.His lack of funding. B.His strength of will. C.His physical preparation. D.His understanding of the desert. (B) Fog consists of molecules (of water vapour,suspended in the air as tiny droplets of water close to the surface of the Earth.It occurs when air saturated ( with water vapour is cooled suddenly,and there are several different ways this can happen. 1.Radiation fog forms over land on calm,clear nights when heat absorbed by the Earth's surface during the day is radiated into the air.As the heat escapes upwards,air close 1.Radiation fog to the surface is cooled until it reaches saturation.Cold air holds less water vapour than warm air,and the water vapour condenses into fog.Radiation fog will usually 'burn off'as the ground begins to warm again,but during winter months it can persist all day. 2.Valley fog usually forms in the lowest parts of a valley as cold,dense air settles and condenses,forming fog.It's continued from spreading by local hills or mountains,and can persist for several days. 3.Advection fog forms when horizontal winds push warm.moist air over a ceel surface.where it condenses into fog.It's common at sea,where warm,tropical air moves over cooler water.Advection fog can cover wide areas,and the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco Bay is often hidden in advection fog. 4.Upslope fog forms when wind blows moist air up a slope,hill,or mountain, which cools as it rises.As it cools,the moisture condenses,and fog is formed as it continues to drift up the slope. 5.Evaporation fog forms as cold air passes over moist land,or warm water. When the warmer water evaporates into the low bands of air,it warms the air and causes it to rise.As this warm,moist air rises,it mixes with the colder air until its humidity reaches 100 per cent,and fog is formed. 40.Radiation fog may persist for longer than usual when A.more heat rises from the Earth's surface B.the air close to the surface cools at night C.less heat is absorbed after the sun rises D.the cold air carries less water vapour 41.Which of the following picture best illustrates advection fog? A B Warm air Cooling Va n water 42.According to the passage,what are the common necessary conditions to form fog? (1)When there isn't much wind. (2)When there is horizontal wind. (3)Where there is open space. (4)Where there is water surface. (5)Where vapour is suspended in the air. (6)When humidity reaches 100%. (7)When saturated air cools down (8)When cool air is warmed up.

(C) How useusrealy,toknow yourseThe idea that se for us datesall the way back to the()ancient reecTemp Apollo i Delphi.Itis still popularly assumed that people with acr themeheir bettr ofthat theyfe bettr haver relationships and are more successful.But when psychologists have testdhr they haven't found much strong evidence of the benefits of self-insight fore An interesting study recently added findings to this long-standing debate tested five of the most common hypotheses (on the connection between self-insight and psychological adjustment.Does self-knowledge really leadtohigher satisfaction?Is it maybe more productive to just think positively-even if a overconfidently-about one's abilities?Or could it be that those with the highest abilities will be better adjusted?The study,published in July in Naturemn Behaviour,found support for none of these ideas. Instead,it somehow indicated that it is people with the biggest gap between their abilities and their view of themselves who say they have the highest levels of satisfaction with their life,career and relationships."People who report being more adjusted are those who have a combination of relatively lower true abilities and actual higher views of themselves,"says Stephane Cote,a social psychologist at the University of Toronto and an author of the paper. Beyond its unanticipated findings,the new study is notable for how it was conducted.It was a registered report,a still relatively rare process that fundamentally shifts the way how scientific research get published.With this study,the joumal looked into the planning stages of it and accepted it,in principle,for publication before any data have been collected,regardless of the result.Such an approach is expressly intended for confirmatory research. By that criterion,the self-insight study was an excellent candidate.It was one of the first two registered reports in Nature Human Behaviour.Both appeared in the same issue,along with an editorial on the importance of this new way of doing science.Traditionally,it is mostly "significant"results,meaning those that confirm a hypothesis at a level above statistical significance,that get published.That phenomenon has led to a concern that too much scientific research is left in file drawers and never submitted to a joural,biasing the perception of what is known. "We strongly believe that when the question is important and the methods robust,the results will be important no matter what they are,"the authors of the editorial wrote. 43.What is the purpose of this recent study? A.To illustrate that there's little meaning in having much self-insight. B.To prove the strong connecting between abilities and well-being. C.To explore the relationship between self-knowledge and success. D.To find out whether one's self-knowledge leads to higher abilities. 44.According to Stephane Cote,what kind of people are most likely to be happy with their life? A.Those with a clear view of themselves and their abilities. B.Those with a positive way of thinking and high abilities. C.Those without much self-knowledge or high self-esteem D.Those without high abilities but see themselves highly. 45.According to the editorial authors of New Human Behaviour,this study is notable because A.it is one of the first attempts with a new research approach B.it is a study with some completely unanticipated new findings C.it is a rare fundamental research study in the field of psychology D.it is fully supported and financially backed up by the journal 46.What can be inferred from the findings of this recent study? A.There is no way to prove some most-commonly believed ideas. B.There is no definite answer to even the most sought-after questions C.There is no sense in trying to figure out people's true view of themselves. D.There is no reason behind why some people are successful and some are not. Section C Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A.Don't go to bed hungry or stuffed. B.Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day,even on weekends. C.Instead,create a relaxing ritual to end your day,like reading or having a shower. D.Sleep cleans the brain of unneeded by-products from its daily functioning. E.What are you consuming? F.Why sleep matters? Optimize Your Sleep According to Statistics Canada,more than one third of Canadians are chronically sleep deprived-and that's bad news for pur brains,which perform worse after even a single night of inadequate rest.47Sleep is also crucial for encoding new impressions and knowledge into your long-term memory. In a University of California San Diego study,researchers found that well-rested participants remembered twice as many new vocabulary words as those who didn't get enough sleep.And when it comes to our motor skills,they drop in speed by 20 per cent when we've underslept. If you're having a difficult time getting the recommended seven to nine hours of shut-eye a night,doctors recommend assessing your sleep habits. Are you keeping to a schedule? 48When you rise,open your blinds so the sun can kick-start your circadian rhythm,the inner clock that regulates your level of wakefulness throughout the day and night.Limit naps to 30 minutes a day. 49 Avoid caffeine after lunch.And while drinking alcohol before bedtime can help put you to sleep,it increases the chance you'll wake up in the middle of the night. That's because it increases the production of a chemical called adenosine,which makes you groggy-but only temporarily.When the adenosine wears off,you wake up. Do you make time for shutting down? Two hours before bedtime,stop using screens-the blue light they emit can confuse your bedy,causing it to produce less melatonin,a hormone that makes us sleepy.60 Is your room conducive to sleep? Channel your ancient ancestors by thinking of your bedroom as a cave.It should be cool,dark and quiet. III.Summary Writing Directions:Read the following passage.Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage.Use your own words as far as possible. Gardening therapy,often referred to as horticultural therapy,is a practice that utilizes gardening activities to promote mental and physical well-being.This therapeutic approach has been gaining recognition in recent years,supported by various studies highlighting its benefits.Scientists and health professionals have observed that engaging with plants and nature can significantly reduce stress.anxiety. and depression. Research indicates that gardening can lead to improved mood and cognitive function.A study published in the Journal of Health Psychology found that individuals who participated in gardening activities reported lower levels of cortisol.a hormone associated with stress.Gardening also encourages physical activity,which is linked to enhanced cardiovascular health and overall fitness. Dr.Richard Ryan,a prominent psychologist at Harvard,emphasizes the importance of nature in fostering psychological well-being.He notes that gardening allows individuals to reconnect with the natural world,providing a sense of purpose and accomplishment.The act of nurturing plants can be particularly beneficial for those dealing with mental health issues,as it fosters mindfulness and presence in the moment. Now gardening therapy is increasingly being integrated into recovery programs for various populations,including the elderly and those recovering from drug abuse. The structured nature of gardening tasks can help individuals develop new skills and improve their social interactions,which are crucial for recovery. Gardening therapy is a valuable tool that taps the therapeutic potential of nature. Supported by scientific research,it offers an approach to improving mental and physical health,making it a promising option for individuals seeking to enhance their well-being through natural means.As more studies emerge,the recognition of gardening as a legitimate therapeutic practice continues to grow,paving the way for its broader implementation in healthcare settings. 51 IV.Translation Directi Transate the following sts intoEnglish,using the words given the brackets. 52.这幅油画传达了何种情感和主题？(convey) 53.她在阳光明媚的操场上尽情奔跑，享受着体育课带来的快乐。(whil©) 54.劳动教育旨在通过实践活动培养学生的团队合作精神，帮助他们认识劳动 的重要性。(intend) 55.中国古典文学以其丰富的诗词和小说著称，体现了深厚的文化底蕴和独特 的艺术风格。(With.)
