B Daryl,a specially trained rescue dog,owes his reputation to an unusual gift:the ability to pick up faint,days-old scents (hidden within thick wild bushes.In late July,the six-year-old dog faced a test that would push this gift to its limit:locating 13-year-old Cody Trenkle Jr.,who had disappeared for over three days. Cody had headed out on his skateboard to a friend's home.Security cameras captured him passing by,with no further clues afterward.Investigators guessed he had lost control of his board and fell down a deep,tree-covered valley.Suffering head injury and partial consciousness,Cody dragged himself into shaded bushes to escape the burning heat,hundreds of yards off any road.Hours slipped by before his family realized he was missing Relatives,firefighters and local residents launched a wide-ranging ground search yet failed to comb the valley's deep,isolated areas.Meanwhile,unconfirmed reports spread that the boy had been 第4页共10页 seen in distant towns.Though his mother,Stephanie refused to believe them,she could not shake off the worst fear:the longer it went on,the more she had to prepare for the possibility of finding her son's body.When Cody's skateboard was eventually spotted at the valley edge,officials called in Gillam and his team. Gillam received the call with mixed feelings."Look,given the three-day-old scent track,I could make no promises,"he told the officer.But the skateboard gave them a solid starting point,and his team would spare no effort to bring Cody home.He selected Daryl for the tough mission,for the dog performed best under hot conditions and on aged scent tracks. Following Daryl's lead,rescuers made their way deep into damp woods and found Cody. Severely dehydrated (and badly hurt,he barely possessed strength to speak.Doctors commented that only a few more hours alone in the wilderness would have cost him his life.After weeks of recovery from brain injury,Cody visited the rescue center to express his gratitude to the four-legged hero who had given him a second chance at life. 24.Why was Daryl chosen to search for Cody? A.He was very familiar with the area. B.He was chosen to test his unusual gift. C.He was skilled at tracking days-old scents.

C Vacations are being redefined to improve your wellness experiences.The new buzzword is "sleep tourism"and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually retumn from your vacation feeling refreshed. When away,vacationers traditionally like to make use of every second of the day.They rush from site to site,eat meals at all hours of the day,and treat themselves at night.And when finally returning to their hotel rooms at night,they find it hard to sleep.Besides,downtown hotels may be 第5页共10页 centrally located,with noisy traffic and flashing city lights pervading ()Also,many people simply do not sleep well when away from their own beds.All these factors lead to pain,allergies and hormonal issues,making sleep challenging. "Sleep tourism"addresses these issues and more.Special sleep suites have been thoughtfully designed to offer quiet and darkness.Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses ( that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points.The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns. Sleep suites are a huge advance in tourism and are now found in wellness hotels around the world.Each offers different ways of inducing sleep,according to Conde Nast Traveler.Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed.No matter which sleep suite you choose,the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being.Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip! The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room,which is sleep!Now you can tour around by day and have sweet dreams by night. 28.According to the text,what is the new trend in vacationing? A.Partying all night. B.Eating at special hours. C.Sleeping well on holiday. D.Rushing from site to site. 29.How do sleep suites improve the sleep experience for guests? A.By serving a wide variety of food. B.By introducing mattresses with AI technology. C.By offering in-room entertainment systems. D.By ensuring complete darkness in the rooms. 30.The underlined word "inducing"in Paragraph 4 probably means A.promoting. B.preventing. C.causing. D.affecting. 31.What can we infer about the future of hotels from the passage? A.All hotels will have artificial intelligence mattresses. B.Traditional hotels will disappear because of"sleep tourism". C.More hotels will focus on providing better sleep experiences. D.Downtown hotels will move to quieter areas to avoid traffic noise. D When hearing the word"genius",many people automatically visualize a person with crazy and messy hair-someone like Albert Einstein,the famous scientist.They imagine the genius to be hurriedly writing calculations on a whiteboard,perhaps speaking to themselves as they work.This is a widespread idea of what a genius is like,but is it accurate?What makes a person a genius? Psychological studies define a genius as being a person with an above-average intelligence,and many researchers believe that an IQ (Intelligence Quotient)of above 140 indicates that a person has a high potential of genius.Research confirms that natural and inherited intellectual ability does play a role in determining genius,and statistics show that genius tendencies are frequently passed down 第6页共10页 from generation to generation. But is a person's natural intelligence strongly linked to genius?Many people who score highly on intelligence tests are not successful in everyday life,and they often do not display any above-average abilities.The 19th century British scientist,Sir Francis Galton,believed that the term genius"could only be applied to someone who had accomplished a significant achievement.What mattered to Galton was not a person's potential ability,but how much a person could achieve with that ability.He considered characteristics such as passion and capacity to work hard as important to genius as intelligence. Some believe that genius may almost be a type of psychosis.It is a fact that some of the world's most celebrated intellectual geniuses display very poor social and emotional skills,and these people mirror the conventional image of the "mad scientist"genius.Others believe one can be a genius in one or two areas but not in others.They believe many people can have elements of genius-such as being a confident speaker or an excellent sportsman. At present there is nothing agreed upon definition of genius.However,it does appear that both genetic and environmental factors contribute toward creating a genius. 32.Why is Einstein mentioned in the first paragraph? A.To highlight his scientific breakthroughs. B.To list different definitions of intelligence. C.To illustrate the common image of genius. D.To explain the role of creativity in science. 33.What did Galton believe was important for defining a genius? A.A person's social skills B.Aperson's natural intelligence. C.A person's potential ability. D.A person's major achievements. 34.What does the underlined word "psychosis"probably mean in paragraph 4? A.Heart disease. B.Mental illness. C.Emotional confusion. D.Physical exhaustion 35.What can we learn about geniuses from the last paragraph? A.Geniuses think alike B.Geniuses find their own ways. C.Geniuses are born and made. D.Geniuses are found in adversity. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 As is well known,making art is good for your health.It can reduce stress and improve your spirit.36 All you need to do is just spare some time to make art in your daily life.And the 第7页共10页 more you do it,the better.Here are some tips to help you kick-start your creative art habit. 37 In fact,there are no differences in health outcomes between those who are identified as experienced in art and those who aren't.So no matter your level,you could feel all the good things that come with making art.
