However,the teaching style here was different from that of my home school.It took me quite a long time to get used to it.Luckily.all of the teachers were very helpful.The position offered so many chances to get and do things! The campus is only a 45-minute bus ride into Auckland which offers so many different things to do.There is also a shopping center right across from the campus,which made shopping easy.The dormitory (has everything you need.The food was not so good,but there are lots of other choices around. All in all,my experience here was one I'll never forget and I made lifelong friends here.I also got a lot of knowledge.I made sure to get out and explore New Zealand as much as possible and I honestly wish I could have stayed longer.

Marina Lancon,one of the seven women taking part in the experiment,said,"I did not feel any rush to do anything and wished I could have stayed in the cave a few days longer,but I am happy to feel the wind and hear birdsong again.I won't look at my smartphone for a few more days,hoping to avoid a return to real life." The group lived in and explored the cave as part of a project called Deep Time.The cave was cool inside- about 10C,and its air was very wet.The campers slept in tents ()If they wanted light,they had to make it themselves by riding a special bike.They had to get all of their water themselves by pulling it up from a well deep below the cave. Scientists at the Human Adaption Institute.which is leading the E860,000 project,say the experiment will help 高一英语共4 them better understand how people get used to big changes in living conditions and environments. The campers were told to sleep and eat whenever they wanted.Because there were no clocks,they counted the days depending on how many times they had slept.When the 40-day experiment was over,most people thought they'd been in the cave for about 30 days.One man thought that only 23 days had passed. "Our future as humans on this planet will evolve ()."Clot,the project director,said."We must leam to better understand how our brains are able to find new ways to settle problems,whatever the situation is." 28.What do Marina Lancon's words show?

All 300 line judges were replaced by the Hawk-Eye electronic line calling(ELC)system.It was powered by high-speed cameras and supported by about 80 on-court assistants This change was promoted as a major step forward.However,it quickly raised heated debate.For example, Russian player Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova had to replay a point she had clearly won because Hawk-Eye failed to register that a ball had landed out. The new system promised greater accuracy.but that didn't make it feel fair.People don't just want the correct decision:they also want to know how it was made.When human judges make mistakes,their decisions can often be contested )A machine's mistake,however,is a confusing"black box"with no one to question,which leads to frustration(失里)， It's also worth noting that sports are not only about accuracy.They are a form of entertainment,where emotion and tradition matter,too.For 147 years,line judges were part of Wimbledon's identity ()Their uniforms. gestures,and even the drama of a close call added to the atmosphere () The problem at Wimbledon was not the technology itself but the way it was introduced.Hawk-Eye worked well. but players and fans were not prepared for the change. The same pattern is appearing with Al and other new tools,such as customer service bots.These systems are often rolled out too quickly without enough testing.When they produce unfair results,there is often no clear way to appeal(申i诉)，and no one takes responsibility.. The key questions are:Who decides?Who benefits?Who is responsible when things go wrong?Without clear answers,new technologies don't solve problems-they create new ones.If we want technology to improve our lives. we can't just replace people with machines.We need to rethink and redesign these systems to make the most of this new technology. 32.What does the example of Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova show? 第2页 A.The players'dislike of the ELC system. B.The unfaimess caused by the system's failure. C.The system's lack of emotion and tradition.D.The importance and necessity of human judges 33.What was the main problem at Wimbledon,according to the author? A.The ELC system didn't function well. B.The players weren't informed of the change. C.The system is too complex to understand. D.The system was introduced too quickly. 34.What does the author imply about Al and customer service bots? A.They are unreliable and should be abandoned.B.People suffer greatly from their unpredictability. C.They should be tested more before being used.D.People should be more accepting of new tools. 35.What does the author suggest for using new technologies? A.Redesigning systems thoughtfully for better use.B.Limiting their use to specific work fields. C.Identifying who is responsible for their use. D.Waiting until the technology is accurate enough. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。 Memory can be a curious thing.Why can you so easily recall the name of the kid you sat next to in first grade but can't remember where you left your cell phone five minutes ago?Don't worry-there's probably nothing wrong with your brain.Ir's more likely that you're just distracted(注意力分散的)，.

Write it by hand If you're struggling to remember information you typed onto your computer or tapped out on your smartphone. there may be a reason for it.Our brains remember things better when we write them by hand.37 A 2021 study published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience backs this up. Have a home for everything If your biggest memory problem is not ever being able to find anything,there's a simple solution to help you with this:38.For example,keep the remote control on the table next to the couch and have a regular spot(固定的地方)for other things you often misplace,like your phone,wallet,and keys..This way,you'll always know where to find them. 39 If you want to leam how to remember things better.pick up a pencil and eraser-or a puzzle app on your phone. One study found that crossword puzzles can improve thinking and memory almost as much as a related prescription medication(处方药)could.40 A.Play word games and puzzles B.Keep your to-do lists up to date C.We have to choose what to pay attention to D.Make sure everything has a place,and always put it back there E.Riddles,long or short,can also help you sharpen your brain F.If you focus on the information that you're trying to remember.you're more likely to recall it later G.One easy way to improve your memory is to make handwritten lists instead of digital ones 高一英语共4 第三部分语言知识运用（共三节，满分55分）】 第一节完型填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项， A student from Colorado is making history as the first athlete from her high school to get a scholarship ( for women's flag football.With flag football becoming an Olympic sport,it's getting a lot of 41,but it has always been 42 to Columbine High School's Jazzy Dunaway.
