In addition to the strong ocean currents, swimmers also have to endure extremely cold temperatures. However, don't tell that to Sarah Thomas. The 37-year-oki American recently became the first person ever to swim across it not once, hut four times non-stop! "I just can't believe I did it/' Thomas told the BBC after the swim. "I'm really just pretty numb. There was a lot of people on the beach to meet me and wish me well, and it was really nice of them, but I feel just mostly stunned." What makes Thomas's achievement even more remarkable is that just a year ago, in 2018, she was undergoing treatment for breast cancer. She said that fighting the strong currents was hard. But even worse was “dealing with the saltwater... it really hurts your throat your mouth and your tongue”, she said. “I got stung(蜇)in the face by a jellyfish. The water wasn't as cold as I thought it might be, but it was still very cold." Thomas’s record-breaking journey began just past midnight on Sunday, September 15, 2019, when she dove into the waters off the shore of Dover, England. Though the swim was initially meant to be about 80 miles, strong currents forced the athlete to change course several times, lengthening the total distance by about 50 miles. By the time she appeared from the water at 6:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, she had been in the water for 54 hours and 13 minutes and swum a total of 133 miles! Even more impressive, Thomas achieved the astonishing feat in a regular swimsuit. Her only aids were swim goggles, one cap, a nose clip, and earplugs。. This is not the first time Thomas has swum across the English Channel. She has done it twice before, in 2012 and 2016. She told filmmaker Jon Washer, who is making a documentary about her swim, “As I was doing 20 mile swims, it occurred to me that I could do more and I wanted to see what that more was." The swimmer, who is being praised “an absolute legend" by the CS&PF, has indeed shown the world what she is capable of However, we have a feeling she is not done yet! 41. By mentioning “Swimming across the English Channel is no easy feat", the writer aims to A. warn people not to swim across it B. arouse people' interest in swimming C. set off Sa rah Thomas's achievements D. stress the difficulties swimmers have to conquer 42. What does the underlined word “stunned" mean in Paragraph 2? A. Surprised. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Regretful. 43. What troubled Thomas most during swimming? A. Strong currents. B. Sea water. C. Jellyfish. D. Water temperature. 44. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on? A. The long distance she covered. B. The ordinary equipment she possessed. C. The record-breaking time she stayed in water. D. The impressive determination she displayed. 45. What can we infer from the last Paragraph? A. A documentary is being made about her achievements. B. She has swum across the Channel more than once. C. She will probably plan to swim the Channel in the future. D. She is capable of doing everything she wants to achieve. C Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has been widely applied in a national park in Northwest China to track snow leopards inhabiting the region. The AI-aided digital toolbox can automatically tell the species apart in the Qilian Mountains National Park, Gansu province, from other wildlife, using images captured by infrared cameras (红外相机). The technology, jointly developed by Chinese internet giant Tencent, the World Wild Fund and One Planet Foundation, can thus improve data processing efficiency. Located at around 3, 500 meters above sea level, the Qilian Mountains with vast stretches of bare rocks reaching from the grass provide a favorable hideaway shelter for the snow leopards. Though more than 200 cameras have been put in the region, sorting out relevant information had not been easy for researchers. “For conducting further studies on the population, distribution and activities of the snow leopards, a flagship species in the region, the cameras would capture (捕捉) hundreds of thousands of video clips and photos every quarter,” said Ma Duifang with the administration bureau of the park’s Gansu section. “Even a slight movement in the environment, such as a mild breeze blowing over the grass, can activate the cameras. Sometimes, curious wildlife bumps into the device triggering the shutter (触发快门), and the cameras take pictures of mere clouds,” Ma added. Ma and his colleagues had to go through each video frame by frame (逐帧地). The information of species that appeared on the images also required human input, so it often took them several weeks to complete such tasks. Tencent’s engineering team has independently developed a species recognition algorithm (算法) by means of transfer learning and automatic data enhancement. Thanks to AI technologies, researchers in the Qilian Mountains National Park no longer need to work like mad in search of leopards hiding out in the wild. “The forest police can now locate a snow leopard from 1, 000 pictures in just about 20 minutes, much faster than before,” said Huang Xiangqi, one of the tech developers. Snow leopards are under China’s highest national-level protection and are listed as vulnerable (脆弱的) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. In China, they can be spotted in cold areas in southwestern, northwestern, and northern regions including Xizang, Sichuan, Xinjiang, Gansu and Inner Mongolia. “We hope we can combine monitoring data with field investigation to help researchers accurately identify the wild species so as to draw up a more specific plan for their protection,” said Ma Yao, director of the project, hoping the digital toolbox can be used in more countries. 46. What could be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. Infrared cameras can tell the species apart automatically. B. AI technology can improve the quality of the infrared cameras. C. AI technology has greatly improved the efficiency of identifying snow leopards. D. Tencent helped develop infrared cameras for Qilian Mountain National Park. 47. What is the purpose of placing so many cameras in Qilian Mountain National Park? A. To prove the existence of snow leopards. B. To sort out the local wildlife. C. To capture as many curious wildlife as possible. D. To learn more about snow leopards. 48. What can be concluded from Paragraph 6? A. The camera mostly takes pictures of clouds. B. Many factors will affect the work of infrared cameras. C. The cameras are only activated by curious wildlife. D. The cameras are also used to monitor the weather 49. What are the researchers’ attitudes towards the AI technology developed by Tencent? A. Grateful. B. Wait-and-see. C. Optimistic. D. Skeptical. 50. What could be the best title of the passage? A. AI-aided tech Developed for Snow Leopard Protection B. AI Technology Used to Capture Snow Leopard C. Infrared Cameras Placed to Track Snow Leopard D. AI Technology Developed to Improve Data Processing Efficiency 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分) 第四部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 When people think of New York City, most of them probably picture the attractive lifestyles of the rich and famous or think of Broadway, Times Square and other tourist attractions. However, there is another side of New York City. The summer after tenth grade, I went with my group on a mission to New York City for a week. I had always known that poverty existed in major cities, but you had never seen it to a degree as high as we did there. We worked at several different locations with our small groups. One day, we served at a soup kitchen and what I saw astounded me. I couldn’t believe my eyes. We saw people from all walks of life. We met people who came there because they had no jobs, no home and no money. Another day, we volunteered at a homeless shelter. We helped people there do some cleaning and spent time talking to them and listening to their stories. It was incredible to see how thankful they were to us for just spending a couple of hours talking to them. Every person we met on that trip had a unique story. Whatever their stories were, there was a common thread we saw in them—hope and thanks. These were people who had nothing, yet they were so hopeful about their futures and they were thanking us. My experience during that summer changed my life. I used to picture my future as containing a big house and a lot of money, but now I see my future as helping others. After college, I would really like to work for some sort of global aid organization that deals with the social issues, such as poverty and homelessness. 51. What do most people have in mind when thinking of New York City? (No more than 10 words) 52. What does the underlined word “astounded” in the paragraph 2 mean? (One word) 53. What did the author discover in the people at the homeless shelter? (No more than 15 words) 54. What kind of organizations does the author want to work for after college? (No more than 10 words) 55.

I totally understand that you worry about communicating in Chinese, so I’d like to give you some useful suggestions. First, you should be brave and confident when talking with others. Confidence is the key that helps you make progress in language learning. Second, it is better for you to speak slowly, which will make your words clearer and easier to understand. Third, when you have trouble expressing yourself, you can use pictures or body language, which are always helpful in daily communication. I believe that you will get used to Chinese life soon. Looking forward to your arrival! Yours, Li Jin 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
