一、阅读理解
Here are some of the best places to visit in Europe.
Ephesus, Türkiye
The ancient city Ephesus, located near Selcuk in modern-day Türkiye, is the most complete classical city in Europe. The 2nd-century Library of Celsus is the most famous of the ancient metropolis' sights, closely followed by the main thoroughfare of the Curetes Street and the vast Great Theater.
Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Bulgaria's second largest city, Plovdiv shared European Capital of Culture duties with Matera in Italy in 2019. The city is one of the oldest settlements in Europe. The well-preserved 2nd-century Roman theater is one of the finest archaeological sites in eastern Europe. There's also a rich archaeological museum.
Pompeii, Italy
Typically pulling in more than 2. 5 million visitors a year, there's rarely a quiet time to visit Pompeii. But that doesn't mean it's not worth making as much time for it as possible when in southern Italy. The perfectly preserved ancient city, buried under ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, is unlike anything else in Europe.
Salzburg, Austria
With the Alps looming over the 11th-century Hohensalzburg Fortress and series of beautiful palaces and churches, Salzburg is arguably the most picturesque city in central Europe. Protected by UNESCO, the modern world feels pleasing elsewhere. The city's most famous son, Mozart, draws tourists' attention with The Sound of Music which was filmed and set here.

Shawn Triplett, who now works as a volunteer at a local elementary school, was recently helping out at a shelter when he witnessed a damaging interaction between a mom and her young child after they had been displaced by the tornadoes.
"I saw a child crying in his mother's arms. She was crying too, but you could tell she was doing her best to look strong," he recalls. "The boy told his mom, 'I've lost my Christmas.' It was at that moment that I broke down and had to walk outside."
After taking a night to think about how he could best help, Triplett decided to ask friends and family to donate money so he could buy toys for the children who were impacted.
"I was going to give them back their Christmas," he explained. "There was so much support in the community for water, generators and food, but nobody was thinking about the kids. At least, not in the way it should be, so close to Christmas."
Triplett ended up launching a GoFundMe page to help purchase holiday gifts for the children, which quickly spread on social media. Since launching the page three days ago, he had raised over $44,000. He also partnered with the local supermarket, which provided a 25%discount on all purchases for him.
While the toys were fully covered by the donors, Triplett said he had been footing the bill for wrapping paper. He planned to deliver the gifts in person in a Santa costume closer to Christmas. "We chose to wrap them so that the kids get the full experience of what Christmas should be," he said. "We're doing everything we can to normalize a traumatic (创伤的) experience for them, even if just for a few hours."
4、What inspired Triplett to make an effort to help children
A. A mother's demand. B. A volunteer's appeal.
C.A young boy's words. D. His childhood experiences.
5、How would Triplett help the children
A. By purchasing school supplies. B. By giving them a normal festival.
C. By launching more GoFundMe pages. D. By sending them necessities of living.
6、What did the local supermarket do for Triplett
A.It did the delivery work for him. B. It provided all the supplies.
C. It offered free wrapping paper. D. It took some money off his cost.
7、What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. Triplett made full use of the money he got.
B. Triplett ensured the gifts to be more valuable.
C. Triplett tried to make kids have a normal Christmas.
D. Triplett had normalized the traumatic experience for kids.
Horseback riding might not seem like a typical New York City activity, but one program has several horse farms throughout the city's busy districts. GallopNYC provides lessons to veterans(老兵) and people with disabilities—horseback riding is their therapy(疗法).
Olivia Diver visits the Gallop! NYC location in the Howard Beach neighborhood in Queens. Diver has only been riding horses for a few months, but says she's already felt the benefits. "It helped me come out of my comfort zone and be less shy and less in my shell," she said. Trying something new shows her she can accomplish other things as well.
James Wilson, executive director at GallopNYC, says there are many ways horses can be therapeutic. "The horse sees the world in the way somebody with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) might see the world, in a really guarded, sort of anxious way," he explained. "So, somebody with PTSD and a horse can sort of partner together and see the world in the same way and kind of take care of each other." Horses can also help with physical disabilities. After two years of therapeutic riding, a teenager, who had so little core strength that his mother had to be in the bathtub with him, had enough core strength that he could be in the shower by himself. Wilson said, "The movement of the horse will loosen up muscles that might be really tight. And the movement helps stimulate other body parts and other muscles that you might not use."
"GallopNYC has about 1,000 people on its waitlist for lessons, but prioritizes people with disabilities and veterans. We believe that everybody benefits from the time on a horse, so if you want to ride a horse, come on, let's go," Wilson said. Lessons are $55, but the non-profit fundraises to help cover or lower the cost for customers who may need support.
8、Why does GallopNYC offer the lessons
A.To make horse riding typical in NYC. B. To provide part-time jobs for veterans.
C. To promote disabled people's incomes. D. To offer a cure to special groups.
9、What can we infer about Olivia Diver
A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has found her comfort zone.
C.She has gained much confidence. D.She has changed her attitude to horses.
10、What does paragraph 3 intend to show
A. GallopNYC's leader. B. The effect of the therapy.
C.Profit James Wilson has got. D. Ways of guarding people's anxiety.
11、What does Wilson think of the program according to the last paragraph
A. It is well received. B.It is highly profitable.
C.It needs to be more creative. D.It takes ages to see the results.
Science reporting on climate change does lead Americans to adopt more accurate beliefs and support government action on the issue, but these gains are fragile, a new study suggests. Researchers found that these accurate beliefs fade quickly when people are exposed to coverage skeptical of climate change.
“It is not the case that the American public does not respond to scientifically informed reporting when they are exposed to it," said Thomas Wood, associate professor of political science at the Ohio State University. "But even truly accurate science reporting recedes from people's frame of reference very quickly.”
Results showed that accurate science reporting didn't persuade only politicians and people who initially rejected human-caused climate change also had their opinions shifted by reading accurate articles. The study involved 2,898 online participants who participated in four waves of the experiment during the fall of 2020.
In the first wave, they all read authentic articles in the popular media that provided information reflecting the scientific views on climate change. In the second and third waves, they read either another scientific article, an opinion article that was skeptical of climate science, or an article on an unrelated subject. In the fourth wave, the participants simply were asked their beliefs about the science of climate change and their policy attitudes.
To rate participants' scientific understanding, the researchers asked after each wave if they believed that climate change is happening and has a human cause. To measure their attitudes, researchers asked participants if they favored government action on climate change and if they favored renewable energy.
"What we found suggests that people need to hear the same accurate messages about climate change again and again. If they only hear it once, it recedes very quickly," Wood said. It was significant that accurate reporting had positive effects on all groups, including those who originally rejected climate change. But it was even more encouraging that it affected attitudes.
12、What does the underlined word "recedes" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Increases. B.Graduates. C. Disappears. D. Strikes.
13、What docs paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A. The research object. B. The research result.
C.The research purpose. D. The research procedure.
14、Why did researchers ask participants the second question
A. To survey the government's satisfaction rate.
B. To make an assessment on their attitudes.
C. To teach them scientific understanding.
D. To measure action on climate change.
15、What can be the best title for the text
A. Science Report Of Climate Change Can Affect Minds
B. Online Participants Joined In A Four-Wave Experiment
C. Accurate Science Reporting Don't Persuade Only Politicians
D. People Should Hear Accurate Messages About Climate Change

After two years of therapeutic riding, a teenager, who had so little core strength that his mother had to be in the bathtub with him, had enough core strength that he could be in the shower by himself. Wilson said, "The movement of the horse will loosen up muscles that might be really tight. And the movement helps stimulate other body parts and other muscles that you might not use."
"GallopNYC has about 1,000 people on its waitlist for lessons, but prioritizes people with disabilities and veterans. We believe that everybody benefits from the time on a horse, so if you want to ride a horse, come on, let's go," Wilson said. Lessons are $55, but the non-profit fundraises to help cover or lower the cost for customers who may need support.

Science reporting on climate change does lead Americans to adopt more accurate beliefs and support government action on the issue, but these gains are fragile, a new study suggests. Researchers found that these accurate beliefs fade quickly when people are exposed to coverage skeptical of climate change.
“It is not the case that the American public does not respond to scientifically informed reporting when they are exposed to it," said Thomas Wood, associate professor of political science at the Ohio State University. "But even truly accurate science reporting recedes from people's frame of reference very quickly.”
Results showed that accurate science reporting didn't persuade only politicians and people who initially rejected human-caused climate change also had their opinions shifted by reading accurate articles. The study involved 2,898 online participants who participated in four waves of the experiment during the fall of 2020.
In the first wave, they all read authentic articles in the popular media that provided information reflecting the scientific views on climate change. In the second and third waves, they read either another scientific article, an opinion article that was skeptical of climate science, or an article on an unrelated subject. In the fourth wave, the participants simply were asked their beliefs about the science of climate change and their policy attitudes.
To rate participants' scientific understanding, the researchers asked after each wave if they believed that climate change is happening and has a human cause. To measure their attitudes, researchers asked participants if they favored government action on climate change and if they favored renewable energy.
"What we found suggests that people need to hear the same accurate messages about climate change again and again. If they only hear it once, it recedes very quickly," Wood said. It was significant that accurate reporting had positive effects on all groups, including those who originally rejected climate change. But it was even more encouraging that it affected attitudes.
12、What does the underlined word "recedes" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Increases. B.Graduates. C. Disappears. D. Strikes.
13、What docs paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A. The research object. B. The research result.
C.The research purpose. D. The research procedure.
14、Why did researchers ask participants the second question
A. To survey the government's satisfaction rate.
B. To make an assessment on their attitudes.
C. To teach them scientific understanding.
D. To measure action on climate change.
15、What can be the best title for the text
A. Science Report Of Climate Change Can Affect Minds
B. Online Participants Joined In A Four-Wave Experiment
C. Accurate Science Reporting Don't Persuade Only Politicians
D. People Should Hear Accurate Messages About Climate Change
