It’s quite hard to make a list of the most beautiful cities to visit in Italy, as every city in Italy has its own look and unique atmosphere. However some of them are more popular than the others. And here is the list of them.
Venice
Venice, a unique city built over the water, is one of Italy's most beautiful and romantic cities. The heart of Venice is Piazza San Marco with its magnificent church, Saint Mark's Basilica. Wandering along Venice's canals and getting lost in its narrow streets must be appealing. Venice is in the northeast of Italy and historically was a bridge between East and West.
Milan
Milan, one of Europe's wealthiest cities, is known for stylish shops, galleries and restaurants 1t also has a rich artistic and cultural heritage. Its Gothic Duomo，with its beautiful marble facade（大理石外墙），is magnificent. Da Vinci's painting The Last Supper, which is in Santa Maria Delle Grazie, is one of Milan's top attractions.
Naples
Naples is one of Italy's most lively cities. It lies on the coast south of Rome and is the most important city in southern Italy. Naples keeps much of its Baroque character and is a starting point for trips to Pompeii, Herculaneum, and the Amalfi Coast. It holds many historical and artistic treasures, and is famous for its pizza and desserts!
Bologna
Bologna is known for its beauty, wealth and food. Its flat streets are lined with arcades（拱廊），making it a good walking city in every kind of weather. Bologna is the biggest city in northern Italy's Emilia Romagna region and its Piazza Maggiore is one of the biggest squares in Europe. Even among Italians, it's considered the cooking capital of the country.
21. How does Venice differ from other cities in Italy according to the article
A. Its streets are lined with arcades. B. It’s a city built over the water.
C. It is a starting point for trips to Pompeii. D. It has a rich artistic and cultural heritage.

C. In Saint Mark's Basilica. D. In Santa Maria Delle Grazie.
23. What do Naples and Bologna have in common

Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume rich food, continue to stay thin Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.
According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.
After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.
In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity—or extreme overweight—among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17%—and is growing.
24. In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola
A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.
B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.
C. They regard eating as a key part of their life style.
D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.
25. What is the text mainly about
A. Americans and the French. B. Life style and overweight.
C. Children and adults. D. Fast food and obesity.
26. How is the text mainly developed
A. By comparison. B. By space. C. By time. D. By example.
27. Where does this text probably come from
A. A TV interview. B. A food advertisement.
C. A health report. D. A book review.
C
Walking in the city is very different from walking in the park. A small psychology study suggests urban（城市的） environments can slow your step and possibly increase your mental load. A walk through nature, on the other hand, appears to ease your mind and quicken your pace. The findings show that natural settings may potentially reduce cognitive （认知的）tiredness and improve reaction times straight away. The study, which includes two experiments with two different approaches, was conducted among 65 university students in the lab.
The first of the two experiments in the new study focused on people's way of walking and cognitive load. During this trial, participants were fitted with sensors and a dozen motion control cameras were set up to watch them repeatedly walk down a 15-metre room at their natural speed. The wall opposite them showed an image of either a nature scene or a city scene. After each walk, participants were asked to rate their feelings of discomfort in the visual environment. On the whole, when walking in city settings, people reported more discomfort and they walked at a slower pace, indicating a higher cognitive load.
The second experiment dug into some of the higher-level cognitive processes that might be at play. In the trial, participants were asked to distinguish between basic visual shapes on the computer while also in the presence of a natural or urban image（the same ones from the first experiment）. Measuring reaction times in both natural and urban settings, the team found results to support their idea. In urban environments, participants were slower in distinguishing between simple shapes. The authors think this is because urban environments are more distracting（令人分心的）for our brains and take longer to process, but more research is needed to prove that idea.
28. How were the experiments conducted mainly
A. By comparing. B. By giving data.
C. By giving examples. D. By explaining facts.
29. What are the advantages of walking in natural environment over in urban environment
A. It can make us feel relaxed and react quickly.
B. It can activate our thinking and speed up our step.
C. It can make us less tired and improve our memory.
D. It can make us become more focused and creative.
30. Why were participants slower in identifying simple shapes in urban environments according to the authors
A. They had a lower cognitive load. B. They had to slow down their pace.
C. They couldn't concentrate properly. D. They felt uncomfortable after walking.
31. What can be inferred from the text
A. Urban environment makes us more concentrated.
B. People's feelings are decided by their pace of walking.
C. The result of the experiments is widely appreciated.
D. People tend to get tired more easily walking in the city.
D
Phones, tablets and smart watches will be mostly banned（禁止） from classrooms in the Netherlands from Jan 1,2024, Sky News reported.
The move is meant to limit distractions from social media, messaging and other sites. Devices will only be allowed if they are needed for the lesson, for medical reasons, or for people with disabilities.
“Scientific research showed that mobile phones are a disturbance（打扰）. We need to protect students against this,” said Robbert Dijkgraaf, Minister of Education, Culture and Science of the Netherlands. “Students need to be able to concentrate and need to be given the opportunity to study well.” Dijkgraaf noted that schools could manage the implementation of the ban themselves. However, he added that laws would follow if the results are not good enough.
The United Nations also warned of the risks of smartphones in schools, the BBC reported.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization（UNESCO） said that too much mobile phone use was linked to reduced educational performance. And high levels of screen time have a bad effect on children's mind, noted The Guardian.
UNESCO said its call for a smartphone ban sent a clear message that all digital technology including artificial intelligence should always be less important than a human-centered vision of education and can never replace face-to-face interaction with teachers. Based on its analysis of200 education systems around the world, UNESCO estimate one in four countries and regions had laws or policies banning phones in schools. Besides the Netherlands, France introduced its policy in 2018, and Finland had a similar decision in June. In 2021, the Ministry of Education in China banned mobile phones, tablets, and other digital devices in the classroom, Xinhua reported.
According to the policy, if such devices are brought to school, then they should be stored together in the same place. Meanwhile, the use of the devices for teaching purposes should not be over 30 percent of the total teaching time.
“Our school has strict rules to ban phones in class, Students who break the rules may lose their merit student qualification or admissions eligibility（保送） for college,” Dai Ting,a17-year-old student from Chengdu, told Teens.
32. Which of the following is true according to the text
A. Only disabled students are allowed to use smartphones in classrooms.
B. Personal communication with teachers is preferred.
C.30% of the teachers use digital devices in class.
D. Any digital devices found in classrooms will be destroyed.
33. Which the closest in meaning to the underlined word in paragraph 3
A. carrying out. B. bringing out. C. making out D. putting out.
34. What's the students' attitude towards the ban
A. supportive. B. objective C. negative D. not mentioned
35. What is the best title for this text
A. Digital products totally banned in Netherlands.
B. A ban on digital products in Netherlands schools.
C. Digital products is a distraction in Netherlands schools.
D. Digital products' wide use in Netherlands schools.

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。
The years 1347—1351 saw Europe suffer from the worst disease—the Black Death. At least one third of the population in Europe lost their lives. Even the Catholic priests（牧师） with all their influence could not survive either. 36
Against this background, Giovanni Boccaccio, an Italian writer, decided to collect stories from history to both comfort victims and challenge the church. 37
In the book,10 people get together at a faraway place to stay away from the disease and share stories there to deal with boredom. 38 After each one finishes their turn, the others then share their ideas on the stories. In this way, we not only enjoy the book's interesting stories, but also get to know the values held by people at the time. 39 As Chinese President Xi Jinping said, works like The Decameron（《十日谈》） stand against the ignorance of the Middle Ages and reflect the people's hope for spiritual liberation.
40 So I could fully understand the characters’ feelings of panic when what they used to believe in suddenly fell away. For people in medieval times（中世纪）, it was their belief in church. For us today, it might be the certainty of our global systems. But it was from the mess of the Black Death that the Renaissance and humanism were born. In today's post-pandemic society, new lifestyles, technologies, and other changes have come to life. My most valuable lesson from The Decameron is this: We must learn from the past to better shape our future.
A. Each person prepares a story based on certain themes everyday, including wisdom and love.
B. The Decameron, as a symbol of the Renaissance（文艺复兴）period, has an influence that goes far beyond one specific country or area.
C. It was no surprise, then, that people's belief in the church began to break down.
D. Everyone can learn a lesson from the book.
E. When I first read this book, the world was fighting against COVID-19.
F. This is what inspired his most famous book, The Decameron.
G. The Decameronis one of the most famous literary work in the Italian Renaissance period.

For my family, a vacation in Penang is a yearly event. My mother and father were raised in Penang, so they loved Penang cuisine. Each December, we'd go to the island and take a three-day tour of their favorite places for meals.
This year we began the trip to the north on a Friday morning. It took us six hours to arrive at our destination. We always stayed at a hotel in Batu Ferringhi. The beach was only a few steps away from the hotel, and our rooms had a beautiful ocean view. We spent our first night playing on the beach. Then, we went back to the hotel rooms and started playing games. My parents had a rule for our holidays that we should spend time doing something together. There was to be no television and no Internet.
We reached Bukit Bendera the following day, and then wandered around the town for the rest of the afternoon, visiting our favorite shops. We were drinking tea in a cafe when we heard someone discussing an earthquake off Sumatra, an Indonesia n island. After we returned to our hotel, we left for the beach. We went for a stroll on the beach, collecting shells along the way. When I looked up, I could see that the sunlight was more brilliant than I had imagined. Far away, I could see a big tree shaking under the sunlight. We didn't think anything terrible was going to happen. All of a sudden, I realized something strange. It was as if the sea was moving away from the coast. I called my dad to check on this strange event. My dad took a look and his face went pale. In the distance we could see a gray line approaching the coast. It seemed to grow taller by the second.
注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为 100 左右；

Dear Paul
Thanks for inviting me to attend the Chinese Culture Day, which is to be held on Saturday in our school. I’ d like to participate in it very much as I have always been interested in Chinese culture and expecting to do my part to spread Chinese culture and share the charm of it.
Anyway, I regret to say that I can’ t make it this Saturday. An old friend of mine who I haven’ t seen for long will come to see me and I will pick him up at the station. Then we will go to visit another old friend together. Despite my absence, I hope you can enjoy the activity and wish the day a success.
Apologise again for my not being able to make my presence.
Yours,
Li Hua

My dad shouted at us to hurry back to the hotel. He held my arm and dragged me along. As we got to the gate of the hotel, we heard a noise coming from behind. My father urged us to hide upstairs. We were in a state of terror, and as we got to the second level, we could hear the roar of running water and the shattering of glass. My dad was screaming at us to go up. On the fourth level we paused, staring at the water beneath. It stopped growing. A few minutes later, it started to fall.
We waited a long time before going downstairs. As soon as the running water stopped, we could see the unrecognizable gate of the hotel. The hotel was filled with mud and shattered furniture. There were also some people who fell into the water and fainted or cried out in pain. What we saw weakened our hearts, so we decided to assist the victims after a narrow escape. Never had I had such a thrilling but dangerous vacation before. The special visit to Penang left a deep impression on me.
