A.has gone B.have gone C.is going D.went
【答案】A

23.Knowing ________ you failed is more important than the failure itself.
A.how B.why C.what D.that
【答案】B
【详解】句意:知道你为什么失败比失败本身更重要。动名词Knowing后接宾语从句。从句“you failed”结构完整;结合句意,强调的是知道失败的原因比失败本身更重要,因此需要使用why引导宾语从句,在从句中作原因状语。
24.The stones in the Stone Forest are so lifelike ______ they look like real people.
A.so that B.that C.such that D.in order that
【答案】B
【详解】考查结果状语从句。句意:石林中的石头如此栩栩如生,看起来像真人一样。so...that引导结果状语从句,that后接从句。故选B。
25.The Iguazu Falls ______ of 1.7 miles long.

【详解】考查主谓一致。句意:伊瓜苏瀑布长1.7英里。Iguazu Falls为复数形式,谓语动词用are,描述客观事实用一般现在时。故选A。
26.Many travelers claim ______ this place is more than just beautiful.
A.what B.that C.which D.if
【答案】B
【详解】考查宾语从句引导词。句意:许多旅行者声称这个地方不仅仅是美丽。claim后接宾语从句,从句结构完整,用that引导。故选B。
27.She asked me ________ I could help her with her English.
A.that B.if C.what D.which
【答案】B
【详解】句意:她问我是否可以帮她补习英语。空处引导宾语从句,从句成分完整,但需添加“是否”之意句意才完整,因此用连接词if引导。
28.The Great Barrier Reef is ______ largest coral reef system in the world.
A.a B.an C.the D./
【答案】C
【详解】考查冠词。句意:大堡礁是世界上最大的珊瑚礁系统。形容词最高级前用定冠词the。故选C。
29.We’ve had a good start, but next, more work needs ________ to achieve the final success.
A.being done B.do C.to be done D.to do
【答案】C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我们已经有了一个良好的开端,但接下来,要取得最终的成功还需要做更多的工作。 分析句子结构可知,主语是“more work”,是物,且工作是“被做”,存在被动关系。“need doing sth.”相当于“need to be done”,表示“某事需要被做”。故选C。
30.The manager put forward a suggestion ________ we should have an assistant to share the heavy workload.
A.whether B.when C.which D.that
【答案】D
【详解】句意:经理提出了一个建议,我们应该有一个助手来分担繁重的工作量。空格处引导的是一个同位语从句,用于解释说明名词suggestion的具体内容。从句“we should have an assistant to share the heavy workload”结构完整,句意明确,不缺少任何句子成分,因此应用只起连接作用且无实际意义的连词that来引导。

Many people look up to their brothers and sisters. Now researchers have discovered that songbirds also look to their brothers and sisters as role models (榜样) — even more than they look up to their parents.
In the wild, songbirds usually depend on their parents for the first 10 to 14 days of their life. Then they leave their parents. After that, they learn life skills through direct experience or by observing (观察) other birds around them.
To study the learning behavior of young songbirds, the researchers did an experiment on 51pairs of songbird parents and their 229 kids. They created a puzzle that required the songbirds to open a box to get some food in it.
After studying the birds’ problem — solving behavior for 10 weeks, the researchers made some interesting findings. Some young birds worked out how to get the food by themselves. The rest of the young birds learned to solve the puzzle from others: Among them, about 94% learned it from their brothers and sisters, less than 2% learned it from their parents, and about 4% followed the lead of other adults. These research findings showed that the young birds’ solution strategies (策略) were more strongly influenced by how their brothers and sisters solved the puzzle.
The researchers say that brothers and sisters are important role models for songbirds to learn the skills they need to survive. The researchers believe that songbirds can better adjust to changes in the environment because they can learn from different role models.
66.What do we know about songbirds from Paragraph 2?
A.They depend on other birds to find their parents.
B.They look after their parents before leaving them.
C.They gain life skills and experience from humans.
D.They live with their parents for two weeks at most.
67.Why did the researchers create a puzzle for the songbirds?
A.To count the number of them. B.To study their learning behavior.
C.To understand their sleeping habit. D.To test the relations between them.
68.In the study, the rest of the young birds learned how to solve the puzzle mainly from ________,
A.their parents B.the researchers
C.other adult birds D.their brothers and sisters
69.According to the researchers, learning from different role models can help songbirds ________.
A.look up to human beings B.share puzzle boxes
C.survive environmental changes D.influence their parents
70.Where is this passage most likely taken from?
A.A science magazine. B.A sports website.
C.A learner’s dictionary. D.A music textbook.
【答案】66.D 67.B 68.D 69.C 70.A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要内容是研究人员发现鸣禽把兄弟姐妹当作学习生存技能的重要榜样,通过实验观察到年轻鸣禽解决问题的策略更多受兄弟姐妹影响,且从不同榜样学习有助于它们适应环境变化。
【详解】66.细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the wild, songbirds usually depend on their parents for the first 10 to 14 days of their life. Then they leave their parents. (在野外,鸣禽在出生后的前10到14天里通常依赖父母。然后它们离开父母。)”可知,野生鸣禽通常在生命的前10到14天依赖父母,然后离开父母,14天也就是最多两周。故选D。
67.细节理解题。根据第三段“To study the learning behavior of young songbirds, the researchers did an experiment on 51pairs of songbird parents and their 229 kids. They created a puzzle that required the songbirds to open a box to get some food in it. (为了研究年轻鸣禽的学习行为,研究人员对51对鸣禽父母和它们的229个孩子进行了实验。他们设计了一个难题,要求鸣禽打开一个盒子来获取食物。)”可知,研究人员设计难题是为了研究年轻鸣禽的学习行为。故选B。
68.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Some young birds worked out how to get the food by themselves. The rest of the young birds learned to solve the puzzle from others: Among them, about 94% learned it from their brothers and sisters, less than 2% learned it from their parents, and about 4% followed the lead of other adults. (一些小鸟学会了如何自己觅食。其余的雏鸟从别人那里学会了解决这个难题:其中,大约94%的雏鸟是从兄弟姐妹那里学会的,不到2%的雏鸟是从父母那里学会的,大约4%的雏鸟跟随其他成年雏鸟的脚步。)”可知,一些鸟自己学会迷失,其余的鸟中大约94%从兄弟姐妹那里学习。故选D。
69.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The researchers believe that songbirds can better adjust to changes in the environment because they can learn from different role models. (研究人员认为,鸣禽可以更好地适应环境的变化,因为它们可以从不同的角色模型中学习。)”可知,鸣禽从不同的榜样中学习可以帮助鸣禽适应环境变化,让它们在环境变化中生存下来。故选C。
70.推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了关于鸣禽向不同榜样学习的科学研究,属于科学范畴,所以最有可能来自科学杂志。故选A。
(C)
Squirrels are small animals known for their bushy tails and quick movements. But how do they survive cold winters when food is hard to find? These clever creatures have a few secrets.
First, squirrels spend the autumn collecting food. They gather nuts, acorns, and seeds, and hide them in different places—under leaves, in tree holes, or even underground. This is called “caching.” They have a good memory for where they hide most of their food, but they also use their sense of smell to find hidden stores under the snow.
Second, squirrels don’t hibernate (sleep through the winter) like some animals, but they do slow down. On very cold days, they stay in their nests, which are made of leaves and twigs in tree branches. These nests are warm and protect them from wind and snow. They may sleep for several days at a time to save energy.
Third, their bodies prepare for winter. Squirrels grow thicker fur in the fall to keep warm. They also eat more food to build up fat, which acts as an energy store. This fat helps them survive when they can’t find cached food.
Even with these strategies, not all squirrels survive the winter. But their ability to plan ahead and adapt to cold weather makes them one of nature’s most resourceful creatures.
71.What do squirrels do in autumn to prepare for winter?
A.They hibernate in tree holes. B.They collect and hide food.
C.They grow thinner fur. D.They move to warmer places.
72.What is “caching”?
A.Sleeping through the winter. B.Growing thicker fur.
C.Hiding food in different places. D.Eating more to build up fat.
73.How do squirrels stay warm on very cold days?
A.They sleep in underground holes.
B.They stay in warm nests made of leaves and twigs.
C.They run quickly to generate heat.
D.They share food with other animals.
74.What do squirrels do to build up energy for winter?
A.They eat more to store fat. B.They hide less food.
C.They sleep fewer hours. D.They lose weight.
75.What makes squirrels resourceful in winter?
A.They can fly to find food.

So the meal begins without the cat. Before lunch is over, the cat rushes into the room and jumps into the chair quickly. She has two mice in her mouth, and before anyone can stop her, she drops (扔下) one into her own plate, and the other into her master’s plate.
“Dear me!” cries the woman, “A mouse is in your plate!”

(B)
Many people look up to their brothers and sisters. Now researchers have discovered that songbirds also look to their brothers and sisters as role models (榜样) — even more than they look up to their parents.
In the wild, songbirds usually depend on their parents for the first 10 to 14 days of their life. Then they leave their parents. After that, they learn life skills through direct experience or by observing (观察) other birds around them.
To study the learning behavior of young songbirds, the researchers did an experiment on 51pairs of songbird parents and their 229 kids. They created a puzzle that required the songbirds to open a box to get some food in it.
After studying the birds’ problem — solving behavior for 10 weeks, the researchers made some interesting findings. Some young birds worked out how to get the food by themselves. The rest of the young birds learned to solve the puzzle from others: Among them, about 94% learned it from their brothers and sisters, less than 2% learned it from their parents, and about 4% followed the lead of other adults. These research findings showed that the young birds’ solution strategies (策略) were more strongly influenced by how their brothers and sisters solved the puzzle.
The researchers say that brothers and sisters are important role models for songbirds to learn the skills they need to survive. The researchers believe that songbirds can better adjust to changes in the environment because they can learn from different role models.
66.What do we know about songbirds from Paragraph 2?
A.They depend on other birds to find their parents.
B.They look after their parents before leaving them.
C.They gain life skills and experience from humans.
D.They live with their parents for two weeks at most.
67.Why did the researchers create a puzzle for the songbirds?
A.To count the number of them. B.To study their learning behavior.
C.To understand their sleeping habit. D.To test the relations between them.
68.In the study, the rest of the young birds learned how to solve the puzzle mainly from ________,
A.their parents B.the researchers
C.other adult birds D.their brothers and sisters
69.According to the researchers, learning from different role models can help songbirds ________.
A.look up to human beings B.share puzzle boxes
C.survive environmental changes D.influence their parents
70.Where is this passage most likely taken from?
A.A science magazine. B.A sports website.
C.A learner’s dictionary. D.A music textbook.

Squirrels are small animals known for their bushy tails and quick movements. But how do they survive cold winters when food is hard to find? These clever creatures have a few secrets.
First, squirrels spend the autumn collecting food. They gather nuts, acorns, and seeds, and hide them in different places—under leaves, in tree holes, or even underground. This is called “caching.” They have a good memory for where they hide most of their food, but they also use their sense of smell to find hidden stores under the snow.
Second, squirrels don’t hibernate (sleep through the winter) like some animals, but they do slow down. On very cold days, they stay in their nests, which are made of leaves and twigs in tree branches. These nests are warm and protect them from wind and snow. They may sleep for several days at a time to save energy.
Third, their bodies prepare for winter. Squirrels grow thicker fur in the fall to keep warm. They also eat more food to build up fat, which acts as an energy store. This fat helps them survive when they can’t find cached food.
Even with these strategies, not all squirrels survive the winter. But their ability to plan ahead and adapt to cold weather makes them one of nature’s most resourceful creatures.
