Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm Li Hua, a middle school student from China. I read the announcement of the summer camp that you have posted on the Internet and I am interested in it. I know that you welcome students from different countries and I'd like to take part in it. I've been learning English for 10 years, and I speak fluent English. What is more, I'll be able to tell students from other countries about China and learn about their countries as well. I hope I will be accepted as a member of your summer camp.
Looking forward to your reply!
Regards,

But his glasses came off when he fell in the water. Harry and Joel waded back into the river. Twigs and leaves swirled around their ankles before floating away on the current. No glasses! Hairy thought they might have been swept downstream, without which Mr. Taylor couldn’t see. Everything was a blur to him now. How could they get home “Oh great! Now we’re lost,” groaned Joel,"and it might be days before someone finds us.” "No thanks to you.” Harry blamed.
"Just calm down." Mr. Taylor shouted, "Without my glasses, we need to work together to find our way." Mr. Taylor fumbled in his backpack and pulled the map and the compass out. Luckily, Joel learned how to read a map from his books, and Harry knew how to use a compass from his hiking club. They stopped arguing, looked down at the map, so that they searched for the river and used the compass to find the direction. In relief, Mr. Taylor beamed proudly, "You two will save the day. You’re pretty good hiking partners!牡丹江市重点高级中学2023-2024学年高三上学期10月月考

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.
The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees’ nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.
Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.
24. Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest
A. It's small in size.
B. It's hidden in trees.
C. It's covered with wax.

Levon Biss was looking at insects from his garden through a microscope he bought for his son. For fun, they unintentionally placed an insect under the lens (镜片). “It is amazingly beautiful!” they both screamed.
The father had been making a career taking photographs for advertisements. But that experience gave him a new direction. Around the world, insect populations are in decline because of habitat loss and climate change. Biss thought that if people could see what he saw through his son’s microscope, they would care more about protecting insects.
So Biss turned to macrophotography: taking close-up pictures of small things, like flowers or bugs. His work has attracted attention not just for its unusual beauty. It also raises awareness about the need for conservation.
In 2016, Biss showed his first insect project, Microsculpture. The term refers to the features of an insect’s exoskeleton, or outer shell, which develops over time as the bug adapts to its environment.
Biss’s pictures capture the insects in all their microscopic details. Then he blows up the images until the insects become larger than life, some of them eight feet tall. But each image takes weeks to make. He uses a digital camera with a microscope lens. The camera is fixed on a computerized track, which allows Biss to take a shot, then move the camera by seven microns (微米) — a distance equals to about 1/10 the thickness of a human hair — for the next shot. In the end, Biss might take 10,000 shots of a bug. A computer combines these small pictures into a single image.
Biss’s latest exhibition is Extinct and Endangered at the American Museum of Natural History. He selected bugs that were extinct or endangered, hoping his photographs would serve as a better purpose. “I communicate visually,” he says, “The way I work is through pictures. But I think it’s my duty to shake things up and get people to pay attention.”
28. What made Levon Biss turn to macrophotography
A. Beautiful insects. B. Attractive environment.
C. An expensive microscope. D. An accidental observation.
29. How does Levon Biss manage to capture insects’ microscopic details
A. By taking a shot at them twice.
B. By adjusting the camera on a track.
C. By taking close-up pictures countless times.
D. By putting them in order on a computer.
30. What does the underlined phrase “shake things up” refer to in the last paragraph
A. Get rid of the prejudice.
B. Take action to save insects.
C. Spare no efforts to face difficulties.
D. Make people think about nature differently.
31. Which of the following best describes Levon Biss
A. Patient and responsible. B. Wealthy and ambitious.
C. Diligent and strong-willed. D. Curious and easy-going.
D
Every 40 seconds, someone in the US has a heart attack. Of course, this statistic applies only to humans. But what about other animal — do they also experience this condition
A heart attack occurs when a blood vessel (血管) distributing oxygenated （充满氧气的）blood to the heart gets blocked and a piece of heart tissue（组织） dies from the deprivation of oxygen, according to Flavio Fenton, a professor of physics who studies both human and other animal species’ hearts. “Since animals’ hearts are very similar,” Fenton said, “most animals hearts, in principle, could have heart attacks.”
But that’s not what happened. For instance, heart attacks occur very rarely in dogs. Even the chimps, which are not only closely related to humans but also share similar risk factors for heart disease, do not have heart attacks. Even in mice and rabbits that are genetically modified to have high cholesterol (胆固醇) and blood fats for the purpose of inducing atherosclerosis（动脉粥样硬化） and other human diseases, actual heart attacks rarely occur, according to a 2009 paper.
Despite previous reports that other animals mostly don’t have heart attacks, the truth is that there haven’t been a lot of experiments investigating this question. “You can observe that an animal has suddenly died, but very rarely would you actually look for the cause of it. We just don’t know whether they suffer heart attacks,” said Tomasz Owerkowicz, a physiologist at California State University.
But based on heart structures, researchers can make predictions about which creatures are most likely to have heart attacks. Owerkowicz and Fenton are doing such experiments on alligators (短吻鳄). “In their heart, you find the vessels; and they have spongy (海绵状的) tissues, around which there’s a lot of blood, not necessarily coming from the vessels,” Fenton said.
According to the researchers’ experiments so far alligators don’t have heart attacks. The alligator’s heart tissue had no signs of cell death, Fenton added.
32. What does the underlined word “deprivation” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Consumption. B. Encounter. C. Lack. D. Production.
33. What do the animals mentioned in Paragraph 3 have in common
A. They have high cholesterol.
B. They hardly suffer heart attacks.
C. They are easily genetically modified.
D. They share similar risk factors for heart disease with humans.
34. What’s Tomasz Owerkowicz’s attitude to previous reports
A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Hopeful.
35. Why do alligators have no heart attacks
A. Their blood vessels are quite strong.
B. The cells in their heart are in large numbers.
C. Their heart can beat faster than most animals’.
D. The blood in their heart has multiple sources.

Family time is one of the most important times in a children's life. My family and I spend a lot of time together, including having dinner together every night. ____36____ Even when my father is away on business, my mother, my sister and I talk and have fun together. As a teenager, spending time with my parents is not the most fun thing I do but I feel it is necessary. I learn from them every time we talk, whether it is about my dad's job or my mother's day.
_____37_____ Data show that only 50% of families sit down for dinner together every night. That's a shame because researchers claim that kids who have these regular family dinners tend to have a sense of belonging and safety. ____38____ And they are also more likely to have better grades and a larger vocabulary.
There have been many recent studies showing kids are "wilder" than they used to be. _____39_____I think less attention from parents might be one of them. If parents spend more time with their children, they will keep their kids away from television, video games and "wild" ideas.
I have noticed in old TV shows and my parents' stories that not long ago sitting at the family dinner table was not a choice, but a must. ____40____It is probably because parents and children are under more pressure from work and study. Although we all lead busy lives and are always running around trying to finish homework or play sports, we should all spend 20 minutes each day to eat dinner together.
A. Nowadays, it seems harder for people to find time to be together.
B. I did a little research on the "family table" idea.
C. Children just watch TV and play computer games.
D. There are certainly many reasons for this.
E. We don't watch television. Instead we sit down at the table to eat and discuss our days.
F. What's more, they learn better behaviours during the time with their parents.
G. It is important for parents to teach children how to behave.

第二节 （满分25分）
Mr. Taylor checked again: water, food, bandage, medicines, a compass, and a map wrapped in plastic... Bingo! He put all that he prepared for the coming hiking into his backpack.
Mr. Taylor was fond of hiking, this time in particular, for it was the first time for him to hike with his two sons, Harry and Joel. Joel liked reading books about explorers and Harry joined the hiking club in his school this term. It will be an unforgettable experience, definitely, he whispered to himself unconsciously a smile spreading over his face.
Harry and Joel, however, argued for the first three miles of their hiking trip. Harry accused Joel of wearing smelly old shoes. Joel blamed Harry for using all of the bug spray（喷雾防虫剂）.Harry told Joel he smelled terrible. Joel called Harry a coward（懦夫）.
“Will the two of you just quiet down and enjoy our hike together ” their father said. "You’re missing all of the beautiful scenery!"
It was true. Neither Joel nor Harry had taken notice of the bear their father had spied at the start of their trip. They hadn’t looked up at the eagle he pointed out overhead. Worst of all, they hadn’t paid any attention to the turns and twists along the way while they continued their argument.
“Joel threw a stick at me!” Harry screamed. "That’s not true!” Joel shouted back.
Mr. Taylor could no longer contain his anger. "And both of you need to stop arguing!" he erupted. As he turned to face them, his left foot caught on a root. He slipped backward and down muddy bank, falling into the river that ran alongside the path,
Harry and Joel raced to their father’s assistance. They helped him up out of the water, and then dragged his wet backpack up onto land.
Fortunately, their wet-through father found himself just slightly injured.
