As we approached the clearing,I was still filled
with excitement.When I observed more closely,I was
amazed to see that the seedling had changed so much.
Looking me in the eye,Mrs Thompson said gently but
firmly,"Sam,with patience and persistence,every plant
would surely grow,flower and eventually bear fruit.
All you need is a little bit of faith in it,just like in your
studies.If you can stop comparing yourself with others
and stay more focused,your effort will surely bear
fruit,too.”
Inspired by her words,my hopelessness was
replaced by a sense of confidence and optimism.I
realized that my failure was just temporary if I was
willing to learn lessons from my mistakes and find
better ways to study.I also realized that comparing
myself to others would only make things worse.From
then on,I decided to study at my own pace,knowing
that,like the seedling,I would grow and succeed in my
own time.Actually,I did make it!

l.C根据第二段中的“It's extremely rare for wild
animals to call each other by unique names.”和
"Each of these naming species also possesses...
elephants also possess.”可知,野生动物用独特的名
字来称呼彼此是极其罕见的。大象也拥有发出独特
的新声音来呼喊其他象的能力。故选C。
2.A根据第三段中的“when names are called out..
suggesting it could take years to learn this particular
talent”可知,当呼唤名字时,通常是远距离的,当成年
象称呼小象时,成年象相比之下也更有可能使用名
宇,这表明学会这种特殊的技能可能需要几年时间」
也就是说大象的这种叫声是可通过长时间学习获得
的。故选A。A项中的“be learned through time'”与
文中的“take years to learn”是同义转换。
3.D根据第四段中的“the animal responded positively
and energetically.,contained its name”可知,大象听
到包含自己名宇的录音时会通过移动身体部位(摆动
耳朵和举起象鼻)来回应。故选D。
4.B根据最后一段中George Wittemyer的话“We
just cracked open the door a bit to the elephant
mind.”可知,George Wittemyer认为,他们只是稍微
打开了一扇通向大象思维的大门。换言之,关于大象
的思维他们需要进行进一步的研究。故选B。

创造力。
6.B根据“blew across his canvas'”和“in unpredictable
ways”可知,风混合(mixing)了颜色。
7.B此处的piece指老画家的画作。上文提到风混合

9.D根据下文“allowing each brushstroke to lead
him”可知,老画家让每一笔引领着他,这表明他开始

能错过的机会。otherwise表示“否则,不然”。
l5.B根据全文主旨可知,letting go(顺其自然)带来
了作者的个人成长(growth)。

l.change(s)定冠词the后面用名词形式,故change
在本句中作名词,表示“改变,变化”,此时change既
可作可数名词,也可作不可数名词,故填change(s)。
with the change(s)in..“随着在…方面的改变”
2.remains本文主要是以现在时叙述,主语the

remains。句意:然而,虽然形式可能已经改变,但本
质仍旧保持不变。
3.a此处是说“服装在中国文化中占有一个重要地

their。句意:它们的设计传达了行为规范,它们的式

which。
9.has been favored空前的which引导非限制性定语
从句,指代前面的skirt,句子缺少谓语动词,且主语
和谓语动词之间为被动关系;根据“for many years'”
可知,应用现在完成时;主语为单数。由此可知本空
填has been favored。
l0.admiration介词of后面用名词作宾语,故填
admiration“欣赏,赞赏”。句意:这不仅是一种传统

Dear Adele,
I'm glad to hear about your plan to shoot a video
introducing our campus life.Here are some suggestions
for content that I believe would make a great
showcase.
Firstly,capturing some typical campus life scenes
would be ideal,such as classroom interaction and extra-
curricular activities.These scenes reflect the dynamism
and diversity of our school life.Secondly,I recommend
including some traditional Chinese cultural activities,
like calligraphy,tea ceremony,and Peking Opera
performances.These activities not only reflect the rich
cultural heritage of China but also provide a unique
perspective for your friends and family to understand
our country.
By combining these elements,your video will
present an engaging picture of our campus life,while
also highlighting the beauty of Chinese culture.I
believe it will be a great way to introduce our school
and culture to your loved ones.Looking forward to
seeing the final product!

African elephants call each other and respond
to individual names,something that few wild
animals do,according to new research published
recently.The names are one part of elephants'
low rumbles(持续而低沉的声音)that they can
hear over long distances across the savanna
带草原).Scientists believe that animals with
complex social structures and family groups that
separate and then reunite often may be more
likely to use individual names.
It's extremely rare for wild animals to call
each other by unique names.Humans have names,
of course,and our dogs come when their names
are called.Baby dolphins invent their own
names,called signature whistles,and parrots
may also use names.Each of these naming
species also possesses the ability to learn to
pronounce unique new sounds throughout their
lives,a rare talent that elephants also possess.
While dolphins and parrots have been
observed addressing each other by imitating
the sound of others from their species,
elephants are the first non-human animals known
to use names that do not involve imitation,the
researchers suggested.Elephants make a wide
range of sounds,from loud calls to rumbles so
low that they cannot be heard by the human
ear.Names are not always used in the elephant
calls.But when names are called out,it is often
over a long distance,and when adults are
addressing young elephants,adults are also more
likely to use names than calves,suggesting it
could take years to learn this particular talent.
The most common call is"a harmonically rich,
low-frequency sound",according to the study in
the journal Nature Ecology &.Evolution.
When the researchers played recordings to

an elephant of its friend or family member
calling out its name,the animal responded
positively and energetically,ears flapping and
trunk lifted,to recordings that contained its
name.Sometimes elephants entirely ignored
calls addressed to others.
"Elephants are incredibly social,always
talking with and touching each other.This naming
is probably one of the things that strengthens
their ability to communicate with individuals,"
said co-author and Colorado State University
ecologist George Wittemyer,who is also a
scientific adviser for the nonprofit organization
Save the Elephants."We just cracked open the
door a bit to the elephant mind."

For many of us,the closest we get to wild
animals is at a zoo.These places let us see
amazing animals from big cats to tiny lizards,
and what they are like.It's an enjoyable and
educational experience for us,but is it the best
environment for these animals?
1 Later on,live animals were captured
by explorers,brought home and put on show to
the public in menageries(野生动物园).2
Modern zoos,however,have transformed the
living environments for animals,making bigger
enclosures,removing bars and,to some extent,
copying their natural habitats.
Some people have questioned the cruelty of
keeping animals captive(圈养的)for entertainment,
but zoos are keen to show that they help wildlife
by educating us about conservation.In the UK,
the introduction of the Zoo Licensing Act of
1981 required zoos to educate the public.3
Probably the biggest claim from zoos today
is that they help protect species in the wild that
are under threat due to climate change.Robert
Young,Chair in Wildlife Conservation at Salford
University,said,"There are quite a lot of
different species around the planet which we
wouldn't have today if it wasn't for zoos."
4 Actor Leonardo DiCaprio recently praised
Chester Zoo in the UK for its conservation
work.It brought "a rare fish species back from
the dead"after breeding and releasing a school
of golden skiffia fish back into their native river.
5 For instance,a virtual reality zoo
enables the public to see rare animals and have
amazing interactions.Jon Coe,a zoo designer,
told the BBC,"Taking a walk through a herd of
elephants in Serengeti National Park in Africa,I
think,is going to be possible pretty soon.
A.Animal welfare was not a priority.
B.Animal protection is becoming a global
issue.
C.What we should do next is not to disturb
wildlife.
D.New opportunities to meet wildlife are

being explored.
E.Some zoos have programs to preserve the
future of endangered species.
F.Long ago,people could only see wild
animals as dead exhibits in a museum.
G.Since then,more zoos have been involved
in raising people's awareness of wildlife
conservation.
