It’s not the house that is special, but rather the person who lives inside.I met Jenny about 45 years ago when she was my sister’s kindergarten teacher. I remember looking into her classroom wishing I was her student. Jenny created a safe place where we could be whatever we wanted to be in that moment. My parents told me I could start school when I was 4. Though, when I turned 4 in the spring, I couldn’t understand why I had to wait until September.For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to be a teacher. When I graduated, I couldn’t wait to invite Jenny to my classroom. She arrived one day, and I saw joy on my students’ faces singing the same songs I sang with her as a child. As a new teacher, I marveled at how she connected with children. For years, Jenny volunteered in my classroom.Over the years we have shared in each other’s ups and downs. Sh e asks me for updates about my family and friends, and she tells me about hers.I am here for her now as the time to sell her house is near. I bring up boxes from her basement. We go through every painting a student has given her, every thank-you note a parent has written and her teaching aids.I find papers featuring the letters of the alphabet. I find my own name printed in green marker. Suddenly, my mind goes back to Room 3.More than 40 years ago, Jenny sat on the carpet at her feet. We learned about the letters and their sounds. Now, Jenny sits on her rocking chair, and I find myself sitting at her feet. Over tea, we talk for hours. I listen intently because I know I still have more to learn from her.Our friendship is one that neither one of us expected.

The Swedish furniture company’s “future-living” research lab in Copenhagen is conducting a survey to understand what people want when it comes to smart furniture.AI is now walking into more aspect s of people’s daily lives. Self-driving cars are just around the corner, and AI robots can play and beat the best players of strategy games. As smart home technologies have become more ubiquitous, products ranging from smart electrical outlets (插座) to smar t smoke alarms are flooding the market. Therefore, it’s not surprising that Ikea would be moving in the same direction.Exactly why people would want their sofa or bed frame to speak to then, track their daily movements or offer help is not yet clear. Thou gh Ikea’s the new survey doesn’t directly answer that question, it does provide a hint of what people would feel comfortable with. Most participants wanted a more human-like form of virtual (虚拟的) assistants, as opposed to one that is more robotic. In terms of the ideal gender (性别) of the assistants, the most popularchoice was neither male nor female. Few wanted a religious form of AI.Just as with human friends, most wanted AI friends that were like them, affirming their own worldview. They wanted an AI assistant that was reasonably intelligent-that could collect data to predict what a person wanted before he or she asked, and that could prevent someone from making mistakes.This is not the first time that Ikea has set foot in the field or futuristic technologies. In addition to wireless charging tables and chainless bikes that never rust, the furniture giant has also pictured smart kitchens that can cook the best meal. To decide on how intelligent you want your next sofa or bookshelf to be, you can take Ike a’s survey online.46．The survey carried out by Ikea aims to ________.A. know peoples need for smart furnitureB. understand future lifestyleC. promote the company’s smart furnitureD. answer people’s questions47．What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Beautiful.B. Common.C. Normal.D. Environmental.48．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. The differences between robot-like and human-like assistants.B. What form of AI assistants people want.C. What kind of friends people want.D. The popular robots on the market.49．Most participants in the survey wanted an AI assistant that could ________.A. help them become smarterB. communicate with them without troublesC. have its own worldviewD. deal with their problems in advance50．Which of the following products are from Ikea?A. Smart sofas that can speak to you.B. Smart beds that can track your daily movements.C. Wireless charging car.D. Rustless bikes without chains.For generations, we’ve spent the first third of o ur lives acquiring the college degrees weneed to find jobs. These degrees are the stamps on our professional passports that pave the way for the remaining two-thirds of our journey. However, the future of work won’t be about college degrees, it’ll be abou t job skills.According to the World Economic Forum, over one billion jobs, almost one-third of all jobs worldwide, are likely to be transformed by technology in the next decade. We’ve already seen this happen. Think of the apps you use to shop, track orders and simply stay informed. The stores need to keep them up and running at all hours, day after day, all year round, meaning they need those who can analyze and secure customer data.In these and other similar situations, people are the organizing force making sure technology works the way we want it to. This means a quick rise in new kinds of digital jobs. According to the Forum’s Jobs of Tomorrow report, there’ll be a rapid influx of roles at the forefront of the data and AI economy, as well as new roles in engineering, cloud computing and product development. These jobs need talent with relevant skills, and importantly these skills can be learnt even by those without college degrees.Shifting our focus from degrees to skills will mean transitioning (过渡) to always-on skills-based education and employment organizations that acknowledge not just certification but fitness-for-job and employment as outcomes. In recent years, several companies have focused on continuous learning for the workforce — the trend will become stronger.When it comes to skills, employers look for more than just technical skills. Companies want people with an eye for detail, creative problem-solving skills, a collaborative mindset and an ability to handle complex issues. These also are skills that can be learnt. Anyhow, lifelong learners with ever relevant skills will be in greater demand in the workplace. 51．What is the function of Paragraph 1?A. To propose a definition.B. To present an argument.C. To give an example.D. To make a comparison.52．How does technology influence the jobs?A. It calls for higher demands for degrees.B. It makes many jobs less challenging.C. It reduces their dependence on degrees.D. It connects them with degrees closely.53．What does the underlined word “influx” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Increase.B. Recovery.C. Decline.D. Change.54．What will future employers value most concerning their staff?A. Their traditional technical skills.B. Their continuous learning abilities.C. Their certification-based education.D. Their desire to start their own business.55．What might be the best title for the text?A. Skills Are Different From DegreesB. Degrees Will Be More CompetitiveC. Degrees Will Shape the Future of WorkD. Skills Are More Vital for Future WorkAesha Ash spent most of her life ballet dancing and even turned it into a career as a member of the New York City Ballet. As much as she loved to dance, she found the weight of her obligation heavy because she was often the only African American ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员) in her classes and company.After retiring from ballet in 2007. Aesha enjoyed the quiet life for about ten years before she decided to come back to ballet, but in a completely new way. She started The Swan Dreams Project that helps kids in poor areas get into the world of ballet. Aesha set up a one-week camp that invited kids to not only learn the basics of ballet, but also get an introduction to French (since she says it is “the language of ballet”).Her first camp was in 2018 in a poor neighborhood in New York. When she arrived, she was greeted by dozens of students, most of whom were African Americans. She wanted to help kids who otherwise might not have ever had the chance to live in the world of ballet.On the final day of camp, after a week of learning, the students put on a final performance for their family and friends. Before the performance, Aesha said she was nervous that it would be less of a performance and more of a mess, since the campers were all between 8 and 11 years old. Muc h to her surprise, it turned out to be perfect. She said. “When we went out to our first circle and the kids began counting in French and performing the steps they had just learned, my heart melted.”Aesha continues to do whatever she can to help kids learn ballet. She found a way to turn that seemingly unbearable weight she once carried around into something good for kids, as well as for the world of ballet.56．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

Participating in a guided hike.D. Assisting at an orientation meeting.4、 B The student arrived early, sat front and center, and stood out in my classroom in more ways than one. I'd say that he was about 40 years older than his classmates in my undergraduate communications class. He eagerly jumped into class discussions, with his humor and wisdom of experience. And he was always respectful of the other students' perspectives, as if each of them were a teacher. Jerry Valencia walked in with a smile-and he left with one too. "These students gave me the confidence that I didn't need to feel bad about my age, " Valencia says. One day, I spotted Valencia on campus. He said he would have to stop taking classes that semester and reapply for next year. By then, he hoped to have earned enough money and have his student-loan papers in order. He asked seriously whether he could still sit in on my communications class. Sure, I said. But he wouldn't get any credit. No problem he said. Soon there he was again, back at his old desk, jumping into our discussions on how to find and tell stories in Los Angeles-a 63-year-old man with as much energy and curiosity as any of the youngsters in class. A lot of Valencia's classmates apparently knew he couldn't afford that semester's tuition but was still doing the homework. "Here he is, willingly taking a class for the delight of it and benefit of learning,"says Jessica Espinosa, a 25-year-old junior. Afterward, I overheard Valencia wanted to stay in school until he earned a master's degree, but it had taken him 12 years to finish community college., so he had a long way to go. There is something splendidly unreasonable about Valencia's determination to get a four-year degree and then a master's. At his current pace, he'll be 90 when he finally hangs all that paper on the wall. But that doesn't seem especially relevant. He's found all the youthful energy and academic opportunity stimulating. Valencia's grade in my class this semester will not show up on his transcripts（成绩单）. But I'm giving him an A-and in the most important ways, it counts.(1) What made Valencia different from his classmates?A. He was respectful to the teacher.B. He activated the class atmosphere.C. He was eager to learn despite his age.D. He often put forward different opinions.(2) According to the author, why did Valencia continue to attend classes?A. He treasured the chance of learning.B. He wished to show his determination.C. He needed the credits to further his study.D. He desired to have an A on his transcripts.(3) Which of the following best describes Valencia?A. Modest and independent.B. Energetic and generous.C. Enthusiastic and motivated.D. Considerate and intelligent.(4) What can we learn from the passage?A. No pains, no gains.B. It is never too old to learn.C. Strike the iron while it is hot.D. Where there is life, there is hope.5、 C A heavy feeling on the chest. A throat that's leaden. An overwhelming feeling of isolation. Loneliness hurts-and, over time, it can put the body into a state that increases our risk of everything from heart attack and stroke to diabetes and cancer. So, evolutionarily speaking, why do we experience it? Stephanie Cacioppo, a neuroscientist at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, says that countless studies have helped researchers formulate a holistic（全面的）purpose for loneliness. "Our social structures evolved hand in hand with neural, hormonal and genetic mechanisms to support these social structures-like couples, tribes and communities-that help us survive and reproduce, " says Cacioppo. Because while loneliness may be painful to experience today, for our prehistoric ancestors that pain would have been a far better alternative to being caught alone with a predator on theprowl（潜行）. Being social had its downsides even back then-competition for food, for example, or contribution to the spread of pathogens（病原）. But scientists think we evolved to feel loneliness because it was more important to work with one another to accomplish tasks and to protect everyone. "The pain of loneliness prompted us to renew the social structure so we could survive and promote key features like trust. cooperation and collective action, explains Cacioppo. For years, researchers thought of loneliness as a disease. But now, they're realizing that it's more of a biological hunger signal that reminds us when it's time to reconnect with those around us to promote our short-term survival. If the outcomes of loneliness were entirely negative, it would no longer be a part of our DNA. Hunger and thirst protect our physical body while loneliness protects our social body." says Сacioppo. Loneliness impacts us all differently. Some of us may find certain situations lonely even while others don't. There's also a genetic component: Some of us are born to feel lonelier than others. Other factors play a role, too. The way we were treated as children can also inform how lonely we feel as adults. Lonely people spend most of their time deep within their own imaginations; they may conceptualize social encounters so much, in fact, that this part of their brain is in overdrive. That means even though they may be desperate to form connections, when they're around other people, they're actually less likely to be present.(1) As for loneliness, which would the author agree with?A. It can lead to serious mental problems in adulthood.B. It holds potential risks and disadvantages to individuals.C. It may reflect a person's strong desire to have social bonds.D. It is perceived in the same way as it is demonstrated by our DNA.(2) Scientists believe that loneliness is ___.A. beneficial but riskyB. painful but necessaryC. natural and powerfulD. personal and harmful(3) Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Humans evolved to be lonely.B. Loneliness is a curable disease.C. Loneliness is a personal feeling.D. Humans need to address loneliness.6、 D A video circulated on social media earlier this year, showing a tourist opening the door of a vehicle, reaching out an arm and attempting to stroke a passing lioness. The lioness shrugged him off, but it could have easily gone horribly wrong. Reckless behaviour around wildlife risks the safety of both people and animals. People risk being attacked, mauled （撕咬） and possibly killed, while animals can be harmed, removed or put down. irrespective of whether they were only defending themselves. Animal attacks can also cast a destination in a negative light, causing temporary closures or scaring off visitors. All just so someone could boast that they had stroked a lion or captured a moment on a camera phone. "Tourists are getting more and more reckless around wildlife and the source of the problem is social media." says wildlife photographer Anette Mosshachers. "People risking their lives or doing stupid things with wildlife are after "likes' and followers something to show off on social media, " says Mossbacher. "The greater the risk, the more "likes" they get. With some clients, it seems like a sickness or addiction." Yet social media is not entirely to blame. People have always taken risks for an experience. Foolish behavior and a tendency to get cockyaround dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity. A hunger for attention online might drive some of the current madness, but some individuals might be trying to recreate a piece of the action they have seen on television. Perhaps the adrenaline （肾上腺激素） rush when close to wild animals causes an evaporation of common sense. "There's a worrying lack of awareness that animals several times our size, weight, speed and strength can easily hurt us, "says wildlife photographer David Lloyd. "I don't think parks are doing enough to raise awareness. Tourists need to know how their presence can affect wildlife. A good example is cheetahs （猎豹） on vehicle rooftops. It may be a thrill for the bystanders, but theconsequences if a mother cheetah falls off would be severe. She would no longer be able to hunt, so her cubs could easily starve." "People aren't getting the education about why they need to stay away from wildlife, including avoiding diseases, keeping people secure and letting wildlife be wild, " says Philip Muruthi, vice president of species conservation and science for the African Wildlife Foundation. "We need to educate tourists through signs, pamphlets and frontline drivers. We should stick to guidelines, and there needs to be enforcement through the law."(1) What can we learn about reckless behaviour around wildlife?A. It harms tourists more than animals.B. It enables tourists to get intimate with animals.C. It may bring more profits to a tourist destination.D. It may get animals killed for defending themselves.(2) As for Mossbacher's opinion on what drives people's reckless behavior, the author is ___.A. sympatheticB. disapprovingC. doubtfulD. indifferent(3) What does the underlined word"cocky" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Selfish.B. Frightened.C. Arrogant.D. Shocked.(4) What can we conclude from the passage?A. Parks are expected to take more responsibilities for educating tourists.B. Raising tourists' awareness means stressing the danger of animals to them.C. More regulation of the tourist industry is the key to raising tourists' awareness.D. Penalties rather than education can stop people taking silly risks around wildlife.四、七选五7、 How does it feel when you solve your problem by yourself? Things may not always go as planned. 1 Being resourceful means finding smart and creative ways to solve a problem, using whatever resources you have at the time. 2 They can also be anything else that's useful, such as information, advice or your own experience. It also means trusting your instincts, the ability you're born with, rather than through training and being confident about your ability to face challenges. A resourceful person is not the one getting cross or panicking when something goes wrong. They're thinking about how to solve the problem.3 When we learn to solve problems for ourselves rather than immediately going to others for help, it can help to build our confidence, help us feel more independent, and feel better about making decisions. Being resourceful may not help you avoid problems, but thinking creatively about how you can deal with them will make you feel less stressed and more prepared next time.4 This can boost self-esteem, that is, how you feel about yourself. When you're facing a challenge, try to focus on the actual problem rather than how you feel about it. Think about where and when it happened and what the causes are. Next, think up as many solutions to the problem as you can. 5 Finally, review what has and hasn't worked, so you're equipped to deal with a situation next time. And remember, no one is expected to solve all problems by themselves. If you have a tricky problem that you're unable to solve, then ask a trusted adult for help.(1)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E. These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.(2)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E. These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.(3)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E.

This notion stems from the observation that some groups seem to work fantastically across tasks, even tasks that are not very similar. Early investigations suggest that group intelligence is not the sum of the intelligence of the individuals in it. Sc what is the secret to their success? Researchers at Google have tackled this question. They collected thousands of data points on hundreds of groups and combed through them trying to find patterns. Are the members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do groups whose members have similar personalities or backgrounds work together best? They put forward many theories but found no patters to support them. In fact, who was in the group apparently did not seem to make a difference; instead, the difference between more and less effective groups seemed to lie in the interaction among the members. In effective groups, members spoke for a roughly equal amount of time-not at every meeting or interaction, but across the course of a project. Additionally, in effective groups, members face one another directly when they speak, using energetic and enthusiastic gestures. Moreover, side conversations between individual members during meetings, far from being a distraction, actually increased the group's productivity. The positive behaviors uncovered in the study occur exclusively in face-to-face interaction. One might argue that most of these findings are extremely obvious, and needless to say, good managers have probably always understood the principles. However, understanding group intelligence can help business and other organizations make the fundamental changes necessary to improve group performance. The reason is that our social and professional lives are not always structured in ways that facilitate the kind of interaction that apparently underlines effective group performance.(1) What is the finding of previous studies on group intelligence?(2) Why is it important for people to understand group intelligence?(3) Decide which part of the following statement is wrong. Underline it and explain why.Although side conversations distract members during meetings, they can help to boost the group's efficiency.(4) Apart from what is mentioned in the passage, what other way (s) can we use to improve group intelligence?

AChoosing SubjectsWhen making course option decisions at our school,we recommend the following things be taken into consideration.Why students should choose a subject Why students should NOT choose a subjectAbility The student has a natural talent for a particular subjectarea.The student thinks that it will be an easyoption.Interest The student enjoys studying the subject,which will helpkeep them motivated when things get tough.The student’s friends are doing it so theythink it will be fun.Future It relates to the student’s career plan and will help themdevelop relevant skills for their future.The student did not have time to researchtheir options properly.Advice The student has discussed their options with their teachersand parents and they have agreed it is a good idea.The student is only doing the subjectbecause someone else told them to do it.University entrance requirements are set by the British university admissions and will differ depending on theuniversity and courses selected.It is important to thoroughly research courses before choosing A-Level subjects and staff are available to guide students and parents in this area.Careers and future optionsStudents are given an opportunity to broaden their knowledge and understanding of the nature and demands of a variety of careers.They will receive career talks and presentations from a variety of employers and have the opportunity to visit universities.Further researchAs part of the option process.students are encouraged to carry out additional research to help them with their selection.1.What should a student consider for choosing a subject?A.Friends’preferences.B.Difficulty of subjects.C.Teachers’expectations.D.Relation to occupations.2.What is included in the subject-selecting process?A.Engaging students in college tours.B.Offering lectures on A-Level subjects.C.Guaranteeing a suitable future job.D.Conducting various scientific research.3.Where is the text probably taken from?A.An exam paper.B.A teaching plan.C.A school brochure.D.An academic article.BDo you know how much India struggles to gather the waste plastic water bottles?According to a Central Pollution Control Board(CPCB)report from2012,India generates15,000tonnes of plastics a day,of which the gathered ones only achieve60%.The trashed-but-not-gathered plastic waste leads to land and water pollution. posing serious threat to the environment.After seeing that,Ankur Chawla,a drink expert,undertook research to find a solution,after which he realised the biggest problem the country faced was disposing of plastic waste.To address it,he wanted to come up with a solution where they do not add to the problem of waste.Fortunately,Ankur was not alone.He met Bhrigu Seth who was into green farming.Both of them found that they shared a common goal and it didn’t take long for them to draft a plan of action.It is estimated that over90percent of aluminium(铝)drink cans in India are recycled.Instead,70percent of the cans are manufactured through recycled waste.After going through challenges at hand,the pair made up their minds.Before taking the next step.both co-founders visited five-star hotels and took samples of water in aluminium cans,asking them whether they would give it a shot if something like that comes in the market.The pair received an overwhelmingly positive response.They then determined to launch Responsible Whatr,natural spring water drink packed in an aluminium can to solve the problem of waste plastic water bottles.As one of India’s first natural spring water drink,Responsible Whatr offered an environmentally friendly and endlessly recyclable aluminium can.It’s a non-alcoholic drink that was launched with a vision for an eco-friendly future and an agenda to reduce single-use plastic pollution.Going forward,Ankur and Bhrigu aim to cooperate with airports and ecommerce gates which would help them in directly reaching the homes of high networth individuals(HNIs).They also plan to tie up with corporate firms and cinema halls and join hands with NGOs that are fighting for the conservation of beaches and oceans.4.What inspired Ankur to conduct his research?A.Plastics remained the major bottle material.B.Uncollected plastics caused severe pollution.C.Plastics accounted for most of the daily waste.D.The amount of plastic waste was beyond control.5.What was Ankur and Bhrigu’s solution to the problem?A.Creating a new packaging design.B.Developing an alternative to plastics.unching a rubbish sorting program.D.Increasing the recycling of plastic cans.6.What was Responsible Whatr aimed at?A.Removing plastic pollution.B.Promoting aluminium cans.C.Advertising non-alcoholic drinks.D.Advocating a sustainable approach.7.How do Ankur and Bhrigu plan to expand their market?A.By cooperating with NHIs.B.By introducing new products.C.By targeting profitable NGOs.D.By establishing diverse channels.CA new finding from Cambridge scientists has shown that an artificial intelligent(AI)system can acquire features of the brains of humans in order to solve tasks.“Not only is the brain great at solving complex problems,but it does so while using very little energy.In ournew work we show that considering the brains’problem-solving abilities alongside its goal of spending as few resources as possible can help us understand why brains look like they do,”said Jascha Achterberg,a scholar at the University of Cambridge.In a study published in Nature Machine Intelligence,Achterberg and his colleagues created an artificial system intended to model a simplified version of the brain.Instead of real neurons(神经元)in brains,the system used computational nodes(节点).The researchers gave the system a simple task to complete,where it had to combine multiple pieces of information to decide upon the shortest route to get to the destination.One of the reasons the team chose this particular task is that to complete it,the system needs to maintain a number of elements-start location,end location and intermediate steps-and once it has learned to do the task reliably,it is possible to observe,at different moments in a trial,which nodes are important.Initially,the system does not know how to complete the task and makes mistakes.But when it is given feedback it gradually learns to get better at the task.The system then repeats the task until eventually it learns to perform it correctly.Co-author Professor Duncan Astle said,“This simple task forces artificial systems to produce some quite complicated characteristics.Interestingly,they are characteristics shared by biological systems.I think that tells us something fundamental about why our brains are organised the way they are.”The team also believes their findings are likely to be of interest to the AI community,too,where they could allow for the development of more efficient systems.8.Which best describes the brains of humans according to the text?A.Intelligent.B.Efficient.C.Adaptive.D.Imaginative.9.Why did researchers assign the route-finding task?A.To require decision-making process.B.To complete it without any effort.C.To result in various node sizes.D.To involve specific procedures.10.What can we infer about the system from the last two paragraphs?A.It shows limits of artificial intelligence.B.It needs human instructions to progress.C.It performs complicated tasks by learning.D.It has much in common with human brains.11.What is the research team’s attitude toward the finding?A.Cautious.B.Enthusiastic.C.Hopeful.D.Skeptical.DMost people would be terrified of entering waters with crocodiles(鳄鱼),but not Sao Chan.Like others living in a jungle village,the73-year-old farmer says the Siamese crocodiles found in the waterways may look ferocious,but they should not be treated with prejudice.“If we come close to them,they just run away,”Chan says.He’s right.There have been extremely few reported attacks by Siamese crocodiles on humans in the world, and reportedly none anywhere in Cambodia.Instead,it’s the crocodiles that have every reason to fear people.Once common throughout Southeast Asia,the particularly shy Siamese crocodile,which can grow up to10feet long,was for decades hunted for its skin and meat to such an extent that,in the early1990s,the species was thought to be extinct in the wild.Some of them survived in the Cardamoms,however,where populations of the reptiles,likely numbering fewer than200individuals in total,were rediscovered in2000.Since then,local people have conducted regular patrols (巡逻)to protect them from threats.While the patrols and other conservation efforts have helped prevent the extinction of the Siamese crocodiles,concerns about the species’long-term survival have remained because population numbers have stayed largely flat since their rediscovery.In2022,conservationists have introduced more Siamese crocodiles into the wild than ever before,not just in the Cardamoms but for the first time into a wildlife reserve in the northern part of the country,where the crocodiles historically were found.Advances in genetic testing have identified crocodiles suitable for release,and satellite tracking of reintroduced crocodiles has improved protection efforts.“We have a long way to go,but the potential comeback of the Siamese crocodile could be Cambodia’s most successful conservation story,”says Pablo Sinovas,who leads a nonprofit reintroducing the animals.“Its survival isn’t just an ecological necessity,but a symbolic matter of urgency if we have any hope of preserving nature on Earth.”12.What does the underlined word“ferocious”in Paragraph1mean?A.Violent.B.Friendly.C.Ugly.D.Abnormal.13.What put Siamese crocodiles on the edge of extinction?A.Habitat loss.B.Water pollution.C.Human activities.D.Poor adaptability.14.Why are protectors worried about Siamese crocodiles?A.They are regularly disturbed by touristsB.Their quantity isn’t increased as expected.C.The locals lack awareness of protecting themD.They fail to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings15.What plays a great role in crocodiles’reintroduction?A.Frequent patrols.B.Modern technology.C.Economic advances.D.Genetic transformation.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。

During their walk, his three-year-old son was thirsty and wanted a drink from the corner store. But Thorleifsson soon discovered he couldn't help with the simple request: A 20-centimetre step blocked his access to the store.The barrier was all too familiar. Born with muscular dystrophy, which causes progressive weakness and loss of muscle, Thorleifsson, now 46, has been using a wheelchair since he was 25. As he waited outside, he recalled, “I thought about how strange it is that we separate families in this way. I thought about all the times I wasn’t able to join my friends at restaurants, pubs and stores that are inaccessible.”Living all over the world as a creative director and digital designer in cities such as San Francisco and Tokyo, Thorleifsson had witnessedfirst-hand how different cities consider and plan for accessibility, from ramps(斜坡) and sidewalks to public transportation.Having recently sold his digital creative agency, Ueno, to Twitter, Thorleifsson now had the financial means to make a difference in his hometown. He decided to start with a project to make Iceland wheelchair accessible, one ramp at a time.Ramp Up Reykjavik was launched as a non-profit in 2021 with a goal to build 100 ramps, mostly in the city’s down-town, within a year. Unlikeportable and temporary solutions in other cities, these ramps are permanent structures that match the aesthetic of the buildings, making them appear as if they’ve always been there.

Generous and helpful.Nir Eyal was part of a team of Stanford MBAs and also one of thebrightest investors in Silicon Valley. He documented his experiences, reading and observations of hundreds of companies to know how mind manipulation(操纵) worked—how products change our actions, and create desires. The result of his research is the Hook Model.A trigger is the actuator of behavior. Triggers come in two types: external and internal. Habit-forming products start by alerting users with external triggers like an email, a website link, or the app icon. For example, suppose Barbra, a young woman in Pennsylvania, happens to see a photo in her Facebook taken by a family member from a rural part of the state. It’s a lovely picture and since she is planning a trip there, the external trigger’s call-to-action intrigues her and she clicks. By cycling through successive hooks, users begin to form associations with internal triggers, which attach to existing behaviors and emotions.The simple action takes Barbra to a website called Pinterest, a “pinboard-style photo sharing” site where she is dazzled by other fascinating objects related to what she is generally interested in—namely things to see on her upcoming trip.Variable rewards are one of the most powerful tools companies implement to hook users. Research shows that levels of the dopamine(多巴胺) rise when the brain is expecting a reward. Wanting rewards creates a focused state, which suppresses the areas of the brain associated with judgment and reason while activating the partsassociated with wanting and desire.When Barbra lands on Pinterest, she’s spending more time hunting for the next wonderful thing. Before she knows it, she enjoys endlessly scrolling Pinterest, and she builds a desire to keep the things that delight her. By collecting items, she’ll be giving the site data about her preferences. Soon she will follow and make other investments, which serve to increase her ties to the site and prepare her for future loops through the hook.8．What did Eyal’s research focus onA. His personal experiences.B. His findings of Hook Model.C. His observations of companies.D. His researches on human brain. 9．What drives Barbra to access PinterestA. The website has a unique style.B. A photo in her Facebook attracts her.C. External and internal triggers both work on her.D. There is a lot of information about her upcoming trip.10．What is the main idea of the fourth paragraphA. How a reward works.B. How the brain works.C. Why the levels of dopamine rise.D. What influences judgment and reason.11．How did Pinterest hook BarbraA. By suggesting on investments.B. By offering appealing discounts.C. By learning about her preferences.D. By making workable plans for her future.Birds do it. People do it. Owls do it in the daytime. Even Caenorhabditis elegans, a primitive roundworm made up of a few thousand cells, does something that looks an awful lot like it. Sleep is an ancient, universal experience.But partly because it is so commonplace, for a long time sleep was a subject that scientists had not woken up to. It is only in the pasthalf-century or so that it has attracted the attention of dedicated researchers. A new book from Kenneth Miller, a science journalist, sets out to elaborate the field’s short but fascinating history. The book is organized around the life and hard work of a scientist named Nathaniel Kleitman who set up a pioneering sleep-research programme at the University of Chicago.The early pages of the book, before there is much in the way of established science to describe, are the weakest. A good deal of time is spent on biographical details and pen portraits of the world through which Kleitman moved. But the story soon picks up. It ranges from the discovery of rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep and circadian rhythms —the biological clocks that govern humanity’s days — to the effects ofsleep deprivation (which can be fatal, at least in lab animals). It also probes the purpose, if any, of dreams.Underlying it all is a sense of psychology's slow maturing as a science. New technologies such as electroencephalographs, which monitor electrical activity in the brain, have offered practitioners the ability to study brains directly, rather than trying to infer what they are doing from the behaviour of their owners.Discoveries often lead to new questions in turn. That is why neat, tidy endings are hard to achieve in science books; this one is no difference. Despite all the progress of the past 50 years, scientists are still unsure what sleep is for. For anyone curious about asking the right questions, however, Mr. Miller’s book is a good place to start.12．What is the book aimed atA. Setting up a pioneer programme.B. Introducing the contribution of a scientist.C. Attracting the attention of other researchers.D. Recording the development of sleep research.13．What does the underlined expression “picks up” in paragraph 3 meanA. Recovers.B. Refreshes.C. Improves.D. Accelerates.14．What is presented in the bookA. Portraits of the author.B. Sleep patterns and dreams.C. The history of psychology.D. The importance of the brain. 15．What is the author’s attitude towards Miller’s bookA. Favorable.B. Disapproving.C. Doubtful.D. Ambiguous.二、七选五16．Will Exercising With A Cold Make You SickerWhether you’re a die-hard exercise devotee or just beginning to get into workout, you may worry that coming down with a cold could disturb your training routine①_________Researchers have loo ked into this problem and have concluded that a mild cold does not always have to prevent you. But there are several key warnings to keep in mind.Do the “neck check”.Before you start your workout gear, assess your symptoms carefully. The most popular adv ice is to do what’s referred to as the neck check, where if symptoms are above the neck, exercise is probably safe. ②_________ If, however, you do have symptoms below the neck, such as a hacking cough, chest discomfort, nausea, diarrhea or body-wide symptoms like fever, muscle aches or fatigue, then it’s not a good idea to exercise. Monitor your symptoms.③_________What might begin as a runny nose could later become something more serious, like bronchitis or the flu. Proceed with caution, keep tabs on how y ou’re feeling and skip the workout if you start to feel worse. There’s this myth that you can sweat out a virus, but that is aterrible thing to do. If you’re not feeling well, heavy exercise can exacerbate your symptoms and increase your risk for complications.④_________.If you’re confident that your cold symptoms are manageable and you still feel up for exercising, moderate intensity cardiovascular (心血管) exercise for 30 to 45 minutes a session. A brisk 30-minute walk outside or a low-impact workout on a stationary bike would be a good option.⑤_________A. Stick to moderate workouts.B. Improve your immune response.C. Keep in mind that symptoms can evolve.D. Could a workout actually do you some goodE. Does your runny nose mean skipping your exercise sessionF. However, if you feel light-headed or any pain while exercising, consider your cue to quit.G. If your only symptoms are nasal congestion (鼻塞) and a low-grade headache, a light workout is OK.三、完形填空（15空）The rural girl from India, Anjali, was born blind.
