Bird migration is described as the regular, seasonal movement of bird populations from one place to another
and back again. The longer days and rich food of the northern summer provide greater chances for birds to feed their young. The longer daylight hours and enormous food resources allow birds to lay larger eggs than those of related non-migratory species that remain in the tropics all year round. As the days shorten in autumn and the breeding period is over, the birds return to warmer regions where the available food supply differs little with the seasons changing. The advantages of migration make up for the high stress, physical exertion（消耗）, and other risks of the migration. Day length is the primary environmental factor that encourages birds to prepare for migration. They have an increased appetite which results in weight gaining, giving them the fat reserves that provide energy for their migratory flight. They also show more activity at night, which is when most birds migrate. While the length of day is the primary reason for migration, birds also respond to temperature changes. For example, if a spring is late and the temperature is lower than normal, birds delay migration; if a spring is early, birds also begin migration early. The timing of the migratory cycle must allow birds to arrive on the breeding site so that there is time tobuild a breeding place, mate, lay the eggs, and hatch the young before the rich food is available to feed the young in the nest. Similarly, if birds wait until the climate in their northern breeding grounds becomes tolerable(可忍受的), there will be no time togain the necessary weight that provides the energy needed for their southbound migration. 1. Why do birds migrate to the north in spring? A The temperature in the south has risen. B. They like traveling and enjoy the journey. C. The summer there is warmer than that in the south. D. The environment there is more suitable for them to feed their baby birds. 2. What are the two factors that cause birds to migrate? A. Day length and food supply. B. Night length and high stress. C. Temperature changes and daylength. D. Food supply and temperature changes. 3. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Birds' Life B. Birds' Migration C. Birds' Breeding Habits D. Birds' Living Environment B Rock and pop hitmaker Jim Steinman, who wrote and composed music for Meat Loaf, Bonnie Tyler, Celine

To praise the contribution of a scientist.BA total of 74,187 confirmed patients, which account for 91.5 percent of the total infections on the Chinese mainland, have been administered traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as part of their treatment, and over 90 percent of them have shown improvement during clinical observation, according to Yu Yanhong, Party secretary and top official of the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine.TCM has effectively relieved symptoms, cut the rate of patients developing into severe conditions, raised the recovery rate, reduced the mortality rate and boosted patients' recovery, Yu said.XuanFeiBaiDu Granule can increase the lymphocyte (淋巴细胞) recovery rate by 17 percent and the clinical cure rate by 22 percent in the controlled observation, according to Huang Luqi, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.Liu Qingquan, head of the Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that two TCM drugs -- Jinhua Qinggan Granule and Lianhua Qingwen Capsule/Granule have proven to be effective in the treatment of mild COVID-19 cases, while Xuebijing Injection can help treat inflammation (炎症风暴) and coagulation dysfunction（凝血功能紊乱）.Zhang Boli, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that TCM treatment has significantly lowered the proportion of patients whose conditions turned from mild to severe. "None of the 564 patients at the TCM-oriented temporary hospital in Wuhan saw their health condition deteriorating into severe," said Zhang. "We have therefore applied TCM treatment to over 10,000 patients in other makeshift hospitals, and the rate of patients developing into severe conditions were substantially reduced," said Zhang.TCM and Western medicine may come from two different medical systems and have different perspectives on health and diseases, but they are both based on the standard of factual clinical effectiveness.The practice of treating COVID-19 patients has proved once again that the precious wisdom left by our TCM ancestors is still practical, effective and economical. We would love to share these valuable experiences and effective treatment methods with all countries.4.What does the underlined word “deteriorate” mean in Paragraph 5 ?A.get horribleB. get fitC. get plainD. get worse5.Which of the following drugs is not meant to be taken orally ?A.XuanFeiBaiDuB. Jinhua QingganC. Lianhua QingwenD. Xuebijing6. What can be inferred according to the passage?A. Over 70,000 patients recovered by using TCM.B. TCM proves invaluable in treating COVID-19.C. TCM and Western medicine are of equal use.D. XuanFeiBaiDu can be the most effective drug.7. Which of the following is not the effectiveness of TCM?A. ease symptomsB. increase the cure rateC. drop the death rateD. add the severe casesCOur world is steeped in history. In nearly every city on every continent, there are sites to be seen that remind us that our generation was not the first. They show us that those who came before had rich cultures, and they inspire us to engage in (参与) their stories. But these essential sites are under threat from natural disasters, warring peoples and even tourists.Fortunately, concerned citizens are trying their best to preserve ancient sites. Respected organizations like UNESCO are stepping in to guard world heritage locations, and a large number of charities have sprung into action to give new energy to damaged or destroyed structures. But with modern technology comes the opportunity to go one step further: to capture (拍摄) sites digitally. This is the goal of the US-based company CyArk, whose founders were moved to act after hearing of the senseless destruction of ancient ruins.Using a combination of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology and photogrammetry (摄影测绘), CyArk captures details of ancient sites in their entirety, creating a photorealistic 3D model. LiDAR is the most important technique used for capturing 3D blueprints of a structure. It relies on pulses of light being shot at and bounced back from the structure’ s surface to capture both depth and details. LiDAR units can be handheld, or mounted on an aircraft to document inaccessible and large spaces with great precision. Photogrammetry is a free-of-charge technique that involves the use of digital imagery to gain measurement information and appearance details. These are later combined with the LiDAR data to create a faithful, digital reconstruction of an ancient site.Besides repairing damaged sites with the help of LiDAR, CyArk has made a great effort to engage people directly with virtual space. With VR (virtual reality) devices, we can now experience ancient wonders anywhere.8. Why does the author mention our world’s history in Paragraph 1?A.To introduce endangered historic sites.B.To encourage more people to visit ancient sites.C.To involve people in stories behind ancient sites.D.To show ancient people’ s creativity in architecture.9.What can we say about CyArk?A.It calls on citizens to better protect ancient sites.B.It uses modern technology to redesign ancient sites.C.It successfully prevents of ancient sites being damaged.D.It pushes the protection of ancient sites to a new level.10.What is the function of LiDAR?A.To receive data from photogrammetry.B.To guide an aircraft around ancient sites.C.To help take 3D pictures of ancient sites.D.To explore the inside of ancient sites.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Rewinding time: ancient sites with new looksB.Natural disasters: enemies to ancient sitesC.VR: our guide of ancient wonders everywhereD.Appealing for help: ancient sites in troubleDWe tend to believe that older people are more positive and younger people are more sensitive to social cues (暗示).Recently scientists investigated this idea by testing 10,000 men and women. They wanted to see if age affected a person's ability to identify subtle facial emotions, such as fear and anger.The researchers from McLean Hospital in the US used a Web-based platform to collect happiness data. It showed the participants two headshots (头部特写) of random people. They were then asked to identify which subject was angrier, happier, or more fearful. The research found that younger people were able to better identify angry and fearful facial cues than older people."From studies and anecdotal evidence, we know that the everyday experiences of an adolescent are different from an older person, but we wanted to understand how these experiences might be linked with differences in basic emotion understanding," wrote Laura Germine, the study's senior author.But what is it that makes young people more sensitive?"This is the exact age when young people are most sensitive to forms of negative social cues, such as bullying," Lauren Rutter, the study's lead author, told Science Daily. "The normal development of anger sensitivity can contribute to some of the challenges that arise during this phase of development."On the contrary, across the whole 10,000-person survey, researchers found no decline in the perception of happiness among older participants."What's remarkable is that we see declines in many visual perceptual abilities as we get older, but here we did not see such declines in the perception of happiness," Germine told Neuro Science News.She added that these findings fit well with other research, showing that older adults tend to have more positive emotions and a positive outlook.Following the paper's release, Rutter told Neuro Science News that gathering their primary research online allowed the team to tap into a "much larger and more diverse sample set" than previous studies.12.What is the result of the research?A.We become less positive as we get older.B.The younger we are, the happier we feel.C.We are often bullied while young because we are sensitive.D.The younger, the more sensitive; the older, the more positive.13.What makes young people more sensitive according to the text?A.Their family backgrounds.B. Their negative experiences.C. People around them.D. Their visual perceptual abilities.14. How does the author support the theme of the text?A. By giving examples.B. By stating arguments.C. By explaining statistical data.D. By providing results.15. Where is the text most probably taken from?A. An announcement.B. A science magazine.C. A travel guide.D. An official report.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

AAmsterdam, the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands, is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, famous for its beautiful canals, top art museum, cycling culture, and Red Light District. Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. You’ll also want to check out Amsterdam’s Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark. The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a popular place for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.TransportationTravelers should be aware that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is one of the busiest airports in the world. This airport is located about 15 kilometers southwest of city center. You can catch a train from Schiphol to Amsterdam Central Station, which has many connecting routes. It’s typically not a good idea to drive a car to the city center because traffic is heavy and parking is difficult to find. Cycling is incredibly popular here, and it’s easy to find cheap bike rentals around town. Amsterdam has a flat terrain(地形) and is a great city to explore on foot.Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.Look for accommodations in Amsterdam’s South District, where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide, hop on a canal boat. They’re inexpensive and will give you a unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights, hotels, and rental cars before you book.1.Which attraction was built with the original purpose of drawing the rich?A.Albert Cuyp Market.B. The Ann Frank House.C. The Van Gogh Museum.D. The Canal Ring.2. Which means of transportation is not advisable in Amsterdam according to the passage?A. The plane.B. The train.C. The car.D. The bike.3. Which way can help visitors save money in Amsterdam?A.Seeing the tulips blooming in spring.B. Avoiding accommodating downtown.C. Buying car tickets at the machine.D. Hiring a local tour guide.BAn Arizona woman who was attacked by a zoo’s jaguar(美洲虎) over the weekend has apologized and admitted she crossed a safety barrier(栅栏) to snap a photo.The woman Leanne told CBS News that she leaned over the barrier at Lichfield Park’s Wildlife World Zoo on Saturday, but she refused to admit she climbed over it as the zoo has said.“I never passed the barrier, but I do admit to leaning over the barrier,” she told the news network.The woman had injuries that were not life-threatening to her arm after the big cat caught onto her through a fence. A fellow park goer got the cat to release its painful grasp by distracting the animal with a plastic water bottle.Mickey Ollson, the director of Wildlife World Zoo, told ABC that the jaguar won’t be harmed because of “human behavior”. He added that this wasn’t the first tim e that the animal has injured a guest who got too close, however. It’s not clear whether the park plans to re-evaluate the barrier around the exhibit, which has been described as a 3-foot wall. Leanne hopes that they will.“I was in the wrong for leaning over the barrier, but I do think the zoo should look into moving their fence back,” she told CBS News. “I’m not the first, and if they don’t move the fence, I’m probably not going to be the last.”Kitty Block, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, also urged the zoo and other parks to be cautious enough when it comes to separating the animals from people.“When various types of exhibitors promote all sorts of close meeting with wildlife, people get the mistaken idea that wild animals are approachable,” she said in a statement. “We urge the zoological community exhibitors to set a higher standard to protect people and to respect wildlife from a safe distance by doing away with public contact opportunities with wildlife of all species.”4.How did Leanne free from the danger of the jaguar?A.The zoo director helped her to get away from it.B.The jaguar was attracted by a bottle and let her go.C.Another park goer hurt the jaguar and it ran away.D.Leanne herself struggled with it and scared it away.5. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A. Human behavior cannot have any influences on the jaguar in the zoo.B. The jaguar tends to attack the guests unexpectedly however far they stay.C. Leanne is doubtful whether the barrier around the exhibit is safe enough.D. The zoo has ensured the barrier will be evaluated again after the accident.6.What did Kitty Block advise the zoo and parks to do?A.Be very cautious to separate the animals from people.B.Look into moving their fence back and clear the barrier.C.Set a higher standard to build up a zoological community.D.Encourage people to have frequent meetings with wildlife.CRobot vacuum cleaners aren’t a new concept, having been around for more than 15 years, but they have become greatly more helpful since the days of catching on rug hairs, running out of battery mid-clean and forgetting where they were.But the next generation of disc-shaped floor-cleaners could bring some of the most important upgrades yet, including being more autonomous than ever and knowing exactly where they are in your home and where you need them to be.iRobot’s latest Roombas, the i7 and i7+, shown off at a recent event in Tokyo, will be arriving in Australia in the coming months. Their key new feature: persistent mapping of your home. The ability to map not only makes the robot quicker and more efficient, but lets it integrate(融入) more closely with smart homes. Once it’s explored your house a few times, the i7 will present you with a map via its smart phone app, which Angle says tends to be “maybe 80 per cent right”.As the robot travels around cleaning up dust, it draws a floor plan and uses a sensor(传感器) to identify landmarks and objects. Unlike previous models, the i7 remembers this information, meaning it will learn the most efficient paths around your home over time.If you change the layout of your furniture, it will adapt the existing map rather than having to create a whole new one and if you have a multi-storey house, it simply makes multiple maps, and uses its learned lan dmarks to determine which floor it’s on (you’ll still need to carry it up the stairs).iRobot’s CEO and founder Colin Angle says the i7 class, the company’s 10th generation Roomba, is the robot he’s always wanted to build; capable of keeping a home’s floor s clean with virtually no user input needed.“This robot has 30 times the processing power of its former generation,” he says. “So we’re fully into a situation today where we can be running machine learning and visual object recognition technology and very advanced algorithms(演算法; 运算法则) on the robot, to allow it to continue to work on increasingly complicated code.”7.According to the passage the robot cleaners invented 15 years ago could ______.A. catch on the hairs on the rugB.charge the battery mid-cleanC.draw the map of the homeD. know their exact home position8. The underlined word “layout” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by ______.A.arrangementB. designC. styleD. size9. Which of the following statements about the i7 and i7+ is true?A.i7 remembers the identified landmarks like former models.B.They can enter the room upstairs themselves and clean it.C.They can do better in math than the previous cleaners.D.i7 can present a map exactly via its smart phone app.10.What can be the best title of the passage?A.Technologies in the Cleaner.B. The Future of iRobots.C. The Development of iRobots.D. The Latest Robot Cleaner.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

第I卷选择题 (共50分)第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
AWhat Is a Harvest Festival?Harvest Festival is a celebration of the food grown on the land. In England, we have given thanks for successful harvests since pagan times(异教徒时代). We celebrate this day by singing, praying and decorating our churches with baskets of fruit and food in a festival known as “Harvest Festival”, usually during the month of September.Harvest Festival reminds Christians of all the good things God gives them. This makes them want to share with others who are not so fortunate. In schools and in churches, people bring food from home to a Harvest Festival Service. After the service, the food that has been put on display is usually made into parcels and given to people in need.When Is Harvest Festival?Harvest festivals are traditionally held on or near the Sunday of the Harvest Moon. This is the full moon which falls in September, about Sept. 23. unlike the USA and Canada, the UK does not have a national holiday for Harvest Festival.History of Harvest Festival—Traditions and CustomsHarvest Festival used to be celebrated at the beginning of the Harvest season on 1 August and was called Lammas, meaning “loaf Mass”. Farmers made loaves of bread form the new wheat crop and gave them to their local church. They were then used as the Communion bread during a special mass thanking God for the harvest. The custom ended when Henry VII broke away from the Catholic Church, and nowadays we have harvest festivals at the end of the season.Farmers celebrated the end of the harvest with a big meal called harvest supper. This wasrather like a Christmas dinner, but as turkeys were unknown at that time, a goose stuffed(填充) with apples was eaten. Goose Fairs are still held in some English towns, but geese are no longer sold.The tradition of celebrating Harvest Festival in church as we know it today began in 1843.1. We can infer from the text that _____.A. Harvest Festival is celebrated on August 1 today in Britain.B. Harvest Festival is the most important festival in Britain.C. traditional festivals are sometimes affected by politicsD. Harvest Festival will be celebrated only when the harvest is good2. During Harvest Festival people used to _____.A. sing, pray and decorate churchesB. enjoy eating geeseC. eat turkeys stuffed with applesD. have harvest supper for days3. What is the text mainly about?A. Introductions to the British Harvest Festival.B. The colorful life in the countryside.C. Some activities for weekend breaks.D. Unknown stories about British history.BI have been living in the United States for more than a decade, and I now say thank you about50 times a day. Most of the time, I do it without thinking. I say thank you to the cashier at the coffee shop. I say thank you to the stranger who holds the door open for me at a restaurant. I say thank you to my wife and my 5-year-old daughter several times a day for various things.When I first moved to the United States, I didn’t know I was supposed to thank someone who took my money for something I bought at a store. I didn’t know I was supposed to thank people when they asked how I was doing. I had no idea how I was supposed to respond to the police officer who gave me a speeding ticket and then said, “Thanks, and have a good day.”I grew up in the northern Indian city of Lucknow, in a culture in which saying thank you is not done lightly. I learned to say thank you in English in elementary school, and when I thanked anyone, I said it in English, which was less embarrassing and more casual than doing so in Hindi.I reserved my thanks for those who had done huge favors for me. And I rarely thanked my friendsor classmates. When I did, they either smiled quizzically at me or regarded the act as a kind of joke—a playful way to practice English.When I say dhanyavaad, or “thank you” in Hindi, I make sure to look the person in the eye. Saying dhanyavaad to someone without looking at him or her is just as good as not saying it at all. As a kid, I never heard anyone my age say thank you in Hindi. I did hear my father say dhanyavaad to people his age, but he did it as sincerely as possible, with his hands joined in front of his chest. He wasn’t just thanking someone for something, but asking for an opportunity to return the favor. That’s how I came to understand expressions of gratitude.Now, when I travel to India, I often offend people by saying thank you to them. On a recent trip home, I was invited to my uncle’s house for dinner. He’s been a father figure to me, teaching me many things and advising me at every step of my life. That day, I made the mistake of telling him, in English, “Thank you for inviting me” before leaving his house, realizing the import of my words only after they had left my mouth. He didn’t respond, but I saw his expression turn sour. He was filled with disgust. I couldn’t even apologize for thanking him. The damage was done.4. From the first paragraph we can learn that the author _____.A. thinks Americans are too politeB. appreciate the American cultureC. is used to the American thank-you cultureD. is popular with Americans for his politeness5. According to the text, when saying dhanyavaad in Hindi, one _____.A. should speak it in a gentle and sincere voiceB. must put his hands in front of his chestC. is supposed to look at the personD. had better wear a big smile on his face6. What can be inferred about the Indian culture from the last paragraph?A. Saying thank you in a foreign language is impolite.B. One shouldn’t say thank you in a casual way.C. It is unusual to apologize to family members.D. It creates distance to thank someone close.CDyslexia is a learning disorder. It affects the ability to recognise words, and for some readers to understand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten percent of the population of the United States. Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read letters backward in the wrong order.But a new study shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. Vanessa Harrar led the study, she reported the findings in the journal Current Biology. The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear. Doctor Harrar calls this a “sluggish shifting of attention across the senses”.In the study, doctor Harrar tested 17 people with dyslexia, and 19 others without reading problems. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when whey heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doctor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions.She found that people with dyslexia were just as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time.Doctor Harrar feels like playing action video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. She adds that images in video games force the eye to move and focus quickly.The study also shows that dyslexic people have the most difficulty going between what they saw and what they heard.

When it comes to the most important family tradition, the first thought that comes to my mind is honesty. The reasons are as follows. First of all, honesty is necessary in communicating with others. It will lead to a lasting and enjoyable relationship. Besides, honesty makes our society run smoothly. Everything will go well only if everybody does their duty honestly. Without honesty, we would have to worry about so many things that we wouldn’t be able to achieve anything. Therefore, honesty is very important and should be passed down from generation to generation.

But along with the famous names there are thousands of other interesting places that are only open to the public for a few days each year. Heritage Open Days takes place each September and lets the public visit places that would normally be out of bounds. Among the thousands of historic sites there are castles and factories, town halls and churches. Here we look at some of the places that most tourists might not know about.Roman Baths --- ChesterThese Roman baths are almost two thousand years old and a fascinating insight into the history of the city but they aren’t often open to visitors because they are under a clothes shop and a shop that sells baked potatoes! In Open Days week, visitors can go downstairs to the basement of the shops and find a little piece of history.Tennis Club --- BirminghamEdgbaston Tennis Club opened in 1860 and is the oldest tennis club in the world.

They’re putting lots of small, high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah AL Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms --- the Queen’s Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King’s Cha mber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find the treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King’s mummy and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The huge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when AL Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid.
