And I think the British are quiet and gentle. I love the lifestyle there. Going out for afternoon tea was fun, and I always did that with my friends. And I really love the old buildings. We don’t have anything that old in the United States, so it is pretty amazing! By the way, I also went to Australia once. The buildings there aren’t so attractive either. The British also have a different sense of humor. Their comedy shows on TV are really funny. I’d like to say my experience was a positive one. In fact, I’m saving up money so I can go back there again.

Chen Guanghui is a guardian for black-necked cranes(黑颈鹤) in the Dashanbao Black-necked Crane National Nature Reserve of Zhaotong city, in southwest China’s YunnanProvince. Whistling(吹口哨) is the secret language Chen uses to communicate with the black-necked cranes, a type of migratory bird under first class protection in China. She says different whistles signal different things. When she whistles in an increasing tone, she tries to tell the cranes: ask your companions to come back for lunch, and they would chirp(吱喳叫)to spread the message right away.
Living near the Dashanbao Nature Reserve, a major winter habitat(栖息地) for the rare species, Chen started to take care of them in 2003, a mission she took over from her mother, whose devotion dates back to the 1990s.
“In the first few days, I remembered they ran away as soon as I approached them. I was very upset and asked my mom to come back, and I was worried they would starve,” says Chen. “I initially tried everything, even singing folk songs to attract them, but failed. Later, I used special whistles and gradually formed close bond with the cranes. ”
“I treat them as if they were my own children, and I’m always concerned about them, especially during snowy days when they can’t get food. I feel uncomfortable and anxious when I hear them chirp and usually rush to prepare corn for them. ” It’s never been an easy job, and Chen has sustained quite a few injuries over the years, even falling into frozen marsh(沼泽)while trying to save a trapped crane in 2008. However, she never gave up. With love and responsibility, she has persisted in caring for the cranes for about 20 years.
Thanks to the joint protection efforts of Chen and staff members at the nature reserve, now more than 1,900 black-necked cranes overwinter in the area each season every year, up from about 300 when the nature reserve was established.
24. How does Chen Guanghui communicate with black-necked cranes
A. By singing folk songs. B. By imitating chirps of birds.
C. By making hand gestures. D. By blowing special whistles.
25. What do the underlined words “a mission” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Rescuing injured animals.
B. Restoring habitats for rare species.
C. Looking after black-necked cranes.
D. Building Dashanbao Nature Reserve.
26. How did Chen Guanghui feel about her initial attempts at the work
A. It is inspiring. B. It is frustrating. C. It is interesting. D. It is exciting.
27. What can we learn from Chen’s story
A. Efforts bear fruit. B. Fortune favors the brave.
C. Virtue is its own reward. D. A miss is as good as a mile.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了Chen Guanghui保护黑颈鹤所做的努力。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Whistling( 吹口哨 ) is the secret language Chen uses to communicate with the black-necked cranes, a type of migratory bird under first class protection in China.（吹口哨是陈用来与黑颈鹤交流的秘密语言，黑颈鹤是中国一级保护的候鸟）”可知吹口哨是他们之间的交流方式。故选D。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“Chen started to take care of them in 2003, a mission she took over from her mother, whose devotion dates back to the 1990s.（陈从2003年开始照顾他们，这是她从她母亲那里接手的mission，她母亲的奉献精神可以追溯到上世纪90年代）”可知，mission指的是他从母亲手里接过来的任务。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据“I initially tried everything, even singing folk songs to attract them, but failed.（我最初尝试了一切，甚至唱民歌来吸引它们，但失败了）”可以判断，陈对最初的尝试是沮丧的。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thanks to the joint protection efforts of Chen and staff members at the nature reserve, now more than 1,900 black-necked cranes...(由于陈和自然保护区工作人员的共同保护努力，现在有超过1900只黑颈鹤)”可知陈的努力带来了积极的效果。故选A。

Taking good care of your teeth may be linked to better brain health, according to a study published in the July 5, 2023, online issue of Neurology. “Our study found that gum (牙龈) disease and tooth loss were linked to brain shrinkage (萎缩) in the hippocampus (海马体), which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默病),” said study author Satoshi Yamaguchi, Ph.D. of Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan.
The study involved 172 people without memory problems. Their average age was 67. Participants had dental exams and took memory tests at the beginning of the study. They also had brain scans to measure the volume of their hippocampus at the beginning of the study. This was measured again four years later. For each participant, researchers counted the number of teeth and checked for amount of gum disease.
Researchers found that the number of teeth and amount of gum disease was linked to changes in the left hippocampus of the brain. For people with mild gum disease, having fewer teeth was associated with a faster rate of brain shrinkage, which is the same for people with severe gum disease having more teeth. After adjusting for age, researchers found that for people with mild gum disease, the increase in the rate of brain shrinkage due to one less tooth was equal to nearly one year of brain aging. By contrast, for people with severe gum disease the increase in brain shrinkage due to one more tooth was equal to 1.3 years of brain aging.
“These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth,” Yamaguchi said. “The findings suggest that controlling the progression of gum disease through regular dental visits is crucial, and that teeth with severe gum disease may need to be removed and replaced with appropriate false ones.”
Yamaguchi said future studies are needed with larger groups of people. The limitation of the study is that it was conducted in one region of Japan, so the results may not be applied to other locations.
28. What is Yamaguchi’s study mainly about
A. Causes of gum disease. B. The symptoms of brain shrinkage.
C. Ways to take good care of one’s teeth. D. The connection between the teeth and the brain.
29. How did researchers reach the conclusion
A. By making comparisons. B. By referring to previous studies.
C. By conducting a survey among dentists. D. By proving experts’ theory in experiments.
30. What do the research findings indicate
A. Gum disease is increasing among people.
B. Keeping teeth healthy is of great importance.
C. Removing natural teeth is bad for dental health.
D. Doing a routine dental checkup can avoid gum disease.
31 What is expected of the future studies according to Yamaguchi
A. Exploring treatments for gum disease.
B. Seeking new methods to improve brain health.
C. Involving people from other places in the research.
D. Applying the research to relieve Alzheimer’s disease.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。根据发表在2023年7月5日《神经病学》在线期刊上的一项研究，好好照顾你的牙齿可能与更好的大脑健康有关。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Our study found that gum (龈) disease and tooth loss were linked to brain shrinkage (萎缩) in the hippocampus (海马体) , which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer’s disease(我们的研究发现，牙龈疾病和牙齿脱落与海马体的大脑萎缩有关，海马体在记忆和阿尔茨海默病中起着重要作用)”可知，Yamaguchi的研究主要是关于牙齿健康与大脑之间的联系。故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Researchers found that the number of teeth and amount of gum disease was linked to changes in the left hippocampus of the brain. For people with mild gum disease, having fewer teeth was associated with a faster rate of brain shrinkage, which is the same for people with severe gum disease having more teeth. After adjusting for age, researchers found that for people with mild gum disease, the increase in the rate of brain shrinkage due to one less tooth was equal to nearly one year of brain aging. By contrast, for people with severe gum disease the increase in brain shrinkage due to one more tooth was equal to 1.3 years of brain aging.(研究人员发现，牙齿的数量和牙龈疾病的数量与大脑左侧海马体的变化有关。对于患有轻度牙龈疾病的人来说，牙齿较少与大脑萎缩速度更快有关，对于患有严重牙龈疾病的人来说，牙齿较多也是如此。在对年龄进行调整后，研究人员发现，对于患有轻度牙龈疾病的人来说，由于少了一颗牙齿而增加的大脑萎缩率相当于近一年的大脑衰老。相比之下，对于患有严重牙龈疾病的人来说，多一颗牙齿导致的大脑萎缩的增加相当于1.3年的大脑衰老。)”可知，研究人员是通过作比较来得出结论的。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth(这些结果突出了保护牙齿健康的重要性，而不仅仅是维护牙齿)”可知，研究结果表明保持牙齿健康非常重要。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The limitation of the study is that it was conducted in one region of Japan, so the results may not be applied to other locations. (这项研究的局限性在于它是在日本的一个地区进行的，因此结果可能不适用于其他地区。)”可知，目前的研究只局限于日本的一个地区，所以可以推测未来的研究希望会让其他地区的人参与进来。故选C项。

Most autonomous vehicles test-driving in cities navigate (导航) by using 3-D maps marking every edge of roadside with almost centimeter-level accuracy. But few places have been mapped in such detail, which has left most areas like smaller towns inaccessible to those driverless cars.
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now have developed a new navigation system that guides autonomous vehicles without such accurate maps. This technology can help driverless cars travel almost anywhere.
The navigation system maps out a course down unfamiliar roads much as a human driver would by continually scanning its surroundings, with a laser sensor (激光感应器), to measure how close it is to the edges of the road. Meanwhile, the car also follows a tool like a smart phone map app that provides directions to its destination, as well as information about the rules of the road, such as speed limits and the positions of stoplights. Teddy Ort, a roboticist at MIT, test-drove a car equipped with this navigation system on a one-way road. It slowly traveled one kilometer without any human assistance.
This system assumes that a car has a clear path down the road, but it can be paired with other existing computing technology to discover in-road obstacles (障碍), says Ort. The researchers also plan to build a version of this system which can spot markings painted on streets, so that the car can drive on two-way roads. "Self-driving cars with this navigation system may need other sensors to work in different conditions,” Alexander Wyglinski, and electrical engineer at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. "Since laser sensors don’t work well in rain or snow, these cars might need additional imaging technologies to drive safely in bad weather. "
32. What may be a problem for most driverless cars
A. They fail in test-driving.
B. Their maps are out-dated.
C. They run in limited areas.
D. Their guides are unreliable.
33. What can we infer about the MIT navigation system
A. It includes accurate maps.
B. It removes in-road obstacles.
C. It works by detecting the road.
D. It features a smart phone app.
34. What is the purpose of Paragraph 4
A. To confirm the test-drive results.
B. To indicate further research areas.
C. To recognize scientists’ achievements.
D. To show the creativity of driverless cars.
35. What is the main idea of the text
A. Autonomous cars beat human drivers on country roads.
B. Navigating self-driving cars may work in different conditions.
C. Smart mapping technology adds to the functions of self-driving cars.
D. A new navigation system helps autonomous cars drive remote roads.
【答案】32. C 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。麻省理工学院(MIT)的研究人员现在已经开发出一种新的导航系统，可以在没有精确地图的情况下引导自动驾驶汽车。这项技术可以帮助无人驾驶汽车几乎在任何地方行驶。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句But few places have been mapped in such detail, which has left most areas like smaller towns inaccessible to those driverless cars.（但很少有地方被绘制得如此详细，这使得无人驾驶汽车无法进入像小城镇这样的大部分地区。）可知对大多数无人驾驶汽车来说，可能存在他们只能在有限的地区活动的问题。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句The navigation system maps out a course down unfamiliar roads much as a human driver would by continually scanning its surroundings, with a laser sensor, to measure how close it is to the edges of the road.（导航系统在不熟悉的道路上绘制路线，就像人类司机一样，用激光传感器不断地扫描周围的环境，以测量它与道路边缘的距离。）可知MIT导航系统通过是通过探测道路来工作的。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中The researchers also plan to build a version of this system which can spot markings painted on streets, so that the car can drive on two-way roads.（研究人员还计划建立一个版本的系统，可以识别街道上的标记，这样汽车就可以在双向道路上行驶。）以及最后一句"Since laser sensors don’t work well in rain or snow, these cars might need additional imaging technologies to drive safely in bad weather. "（“由于激光传感器在雨雪天气中不能很好地工作，这些汽车可能需要额外的成像技术才能在恶劣天气下安全地行驶。”）可知第四段的目的在于指出进一步的研究领域。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章主要内容为介绍麻省理工学院(MIT)的研究人员现在已经开发出一种新的导航系统，可以在没有精确地图的情况下引导自动驾驶汽车。这项技术可以帮助无人驾驶汽车几乎在任何地方行驶。故D选项符合题意。

【39题详解】
根据后文“Alexander Daros at the Campbell Family Mental Health Institute in Toronto and colleagues report an analysis of 90 randomized controlled tests. They found that helping young people to improve their emotion-regulation (情绪调节) skills, which are needed to control emotional responses to difficult situations, can enable them to deal better with anxiety and depression. (多伦多坎贝尔家庭心理健康研究所的亚历山大·达罗斯及其同事报告了一项对90个随机对照试验的分析。他们发现，帮助年轻人提高情绪调节技能（这是在困难情况下控制情绪反应所必需的），可以使他们更好地应对焦虑和抑郁。)”可知，本段的主旨是研究人员开始研究应对焦虑和抑郁的方法。故A选项“幸运的是，研究人员已经开始研究方法”符合语境，故选A。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Along with the report, the studies also stress the part that funders must urgently play, and why researchers and communities must work together on more studies about young people (除了这份报告，这些研究还强调了资助者必须迫切发挥的作用，以及为什么研究人员和社区必须共同努力，开展更多关于年轻人的研究)”可知，本句承接上文说明让年轻人参与调查来开展关于年轻人的研究。故B选项“真正让年轻人参与调查”符合语境，故选B。

【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意：然而，由于我们生活在社会群体中，亲密的友谊对人类是有益的。分析句子结构可知，此处需要形容词beneficial充当表语，be beneficial to，表示“对……有益”。故填beneficial。
【58题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：它们可能会安慰心灵，给头脑提建议，帮助我们实现为自己设定的目标。分析句子结构可知，此处用作介词for的宾语，此处和定语从句主语 we是同一个人，应使用反身代词ourselves。故填ourselves。
【59题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：友谊的第一个果实是和平，因为有了一个人，我们可以分享我们的快乐、悲伤、成功和失败。分析句子结构可知，此处缺少定语从句引导词，先行词是someone，定语从句缺少宾语，构成“介词+关系代词whom”引导的定语从句。故填whom。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意：在这里，友谊有一个双重优势—快乐有了更大的意义，分担的困难减少了一半。分析句子结构可知，此处缺少冠词，表示泛指“一个”，后面的单词double开头发音是辅音，需用不定冠词a。故填a。
【61题详解】

【62题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：如果我们只凭自己的感受，我们的判断可能是片面的。分析句子结构可知，此处是条件状语从句的谓语部分，主语we和动词guide是被动关系，应使用被动语态，根据后面的may be，可知此处应使用一般现在时，因此，空格处需要一般现在时的被动语态，主语是we。故填are guided。
【63题详解】
考查名词性从句。句意：它们可以帮助我们在生活中，甚至在死后实现我们想要的。分析句子结构可知，此处缺少宾语从句引导词，从句缺少宾语，表示“物”，需用连接词what。故填what。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：最后，需要指出的是，享受人群的陪伴并不等同于与朋友在一起。分析句子结构可知，此处动词enjoy用作宾语从句的主语，应使用动名词形式。故填enjoying。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意：只有这样，在我们信任的朋友的支持、建议和帮助下，我们才能更好地走上“人生之路”。分析句子结构可知，此处应用形容词trusted或者trusty充当定语“值得信赖的”，修饰名词friends。故填trusted/ trusty。

【答案】One possible version:
It’s hard to believe that I am so close to reaching the end of high school. Looking back, I find the past days has witnessed plenty of memorable activities. However, the one that stuck me as the most impressive was the coming-of-age ceremony.
To honor the students who had turned 18, a grand ceremony was held in the 2nd term of the senior year. We students, wearing traditional dress, gathered at the stadium as scheduled. First, our principal sincerely extended her congratulations on us becoming a grown-up. Then followed the Confucian-style coming-of-age ceremonies-Ji Li (for girls) and Guan Li (for boys). Finally, we made a solemn vow to shoulder the responsibilities of an adult, which was definitely the highlight.
Personally, the ceremony exerted a profound influence on us students. Not only did it fully expose us to traditional Chinese culture, but it motivated us to embrace the new identity and live up to our promise.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad and I had been looking forward to the Stale cross-country race of my senior year of high school, which would be the climax (顶点) of my existence.
I was the fastest runner on my team, and I was supposed to make it into the top fifteen. We had been working towards this race for three years. It was everything to me, and it was everything to my dad. He was a runner and was wild with joy by my success in running. He made it to every race, even flying home early from business trips to see me run. I always listened for his voice, which rang above the crowd-telling me to relax my arms, calling out my time. He pushed me. He cheered for me. He believed in me. We spent countless hours on the sandy canals of Arizona. Breathing in the dust of the desert, the blossoms of the orange trees, and the terrible smell of the dairy farm, we made our way across the city. We pounded miles and miles into our running shoes, marking with every step the path to greatness. It was a journey that was just ours. A dream passed on from one generation to the next.
Then the big day came. It was hotter than normal - too hot. My throat felt like a field of cotton, cracked with the summer heat, as I waited for the gun to fire. I gazed out at the crowd; dozens of familiar faces from church and school flickered across my view. They had come for me. They were counting on me. I saw my dad set his watch, worry and excitement etched across his face. With the sound of a gunshot, the race began.
For the first two and half miles, I felt great. I had never before been so ready for something. The weeks leading up to the race were filled with hard practices and a strict diet. The scorching sun beat upon my back, blinding me with its brilliance. Nothing was going to stop me, though.

However, without warning, my strength was running out.

I whispered, “I’m so sorry I disappointed you, Dad.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 However, without warning, my strength was running out. My lungs fought to take in enough air, and my feet transformed into cement bricks. Neck and neck with one of my greatest rivals, I could see the finish line. I had begun the final sprint into glory when my knees buckled and my legs gave way. Nothing I could do would make them hold my weight. They were as weak as jelly. Even though I knew my dreams of victory had been destroyed, I had to finish the race. With all of the strength left in me, I got on my hands and knees and crawled, inch by inch, across the finish line. Shame pulsed through my veins as Dad squatted down and pulled me into his arms.
I whispered “I’m so sorry I disappointed you, Dad.” He gave me a gentle smile and said, “You could never disappoint me. Sometimes these things just happen. All that matters is that you did your best.” Lifting my face, I saw my dad’s eyes, in which I saw the sweat, the time, and the work we had put into our dream. The miles we had run together, all for this race, flashed across my mind. “But we worked so hard. What about our dream” I asked. In that second, the world stood still. He reached over for my hand, holding back his own tears, and said, “Don’t you know that you are my dream come true ”

Chen Guanghui is a guardian for black-necked cranes(黑颈鹤) in the Dashanbao Black-necked Crane National Nature Reserve of Zhaotong city, in southwest China’s YunnanProvince. Whistling(吹口哨) is the secret language Chen uses to communicate with the black-necked cranes, a type of migratory bird under first class protection in China. She says different whistles signal different things. When she whistles in an increasing tone, she tries to tell the cranes: ask your companions to come back for lunch, and they would chirp(吱喳叫)to spread the message right away.
Living near the Dashanbao Nature Reserve, a major winter habitat(栖息地) for the rare species, Chen started to take care of them in 2003, a mission she took over from her mother, whose devotion dates back to the 1990s.
“In the first few days I remembered they ran away as soon as I approached them. I was very upset and asked my mom to come back, and I was worried they would starve,” says Chen. “I initially tried everything, even singing folk songs to attract them, but failed. Later, I used special whistles and gradually formed close bond with the cranes. ”
“I treat them as if they were my own children, and I’m always concerned about them, especially during snowy days when they can’t get food. I feel uncomfortable and anxious when I hear them chirp and usually rush to prepare corn for them. ” It’s never been an easy job, and Chen has sustained quite a few injuries over the years, even falling into frozen marsh(沼泽)while trying to save a trapped crane in 2008. However, she never gave up. With love and responsibility, she has persisted in caring for the cranes for about 20 years.
Thanks to the joint protection efforts of Chen and staff members at the nature reserve, now more than 1,900 black-necked cranes overwinter in the area each season every year, up from about 300 when the nature reserve was established.
24. How does Chen Guanghui communicate with black-necked cranes
A. By singing folk songs. B. By imitating chirps of birds.
C. By making hand gestures. D. By blowing special whistles.
25. What do the underlined words “a mission” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Rescuing injured animals.
B. Restoring habitats for rare species.
C Looking after black-necked cranes.
D. Building Dashanbao Nature Reserve.
26. How did Chen Guanghui feel about her initial attempts at the work
A. It is inspiring. B. It is frustrating. C. It is interesting. D. It is exciting.
27. What can we learn from Chen’s story
A. Efforts bear fruit. B. Fortune favors the brave.
C. Virtue is its own reward. D. A miss is as good as a mile.

Taking good care of your teeth may be linked to better brain health, according to a study published in the July 5, 2023, online issue of Neurology. “Our study found that gum (牙龈) disease and tooth loss were linked to brain shrinkage (萎缩) in the hippocampus (海马体), which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默病),” said study author Satoshi Yamaguchi, Ph.D. of Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan.
The study involved 172 people without memory problems. Their average age was 67. Participants had dental exams and took memory tests at the beginning of the study. They also had brain scans to measure the volume of their hippocampus at the beginning of the study. This was measured again four years later. For each participant, researchers counted the number of teeth and checked for amount of gum disease.
Researchers found that the number of teeth and amount of gum disease was linked to changes in the left hippocampus of the brain. For people with mild gum disease, having fewer teeth was associated with a faster rate of brain shrinkage, which is the same for people with severe gum disease having more teeth. After adjusting for age, researchers found that for people with mild gum disease, the increase in the rate of brain shrinkage due to one less tooth was equal to nearly one year of brain aging. By contrast, for people with severe gum disease the increase in brain shrinkage due to one more tooth was equal to 1.3 years of brain aging.
“These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth,” Yamaguchi said. “The findings suggest that controlling the progression of gum disease through regular dental visits is crucial, and that teeth with severe gum disease may need to be removed and replaced with appropriate false ones.”
Yamaguchi said future studies are needed with larger groups of people. The limitation of the study is that it was conducted in one region of Japan, so the results may not be applied to other locations.
28. What is Yamaguchi’s study mainly about
A. Causes of gum disease. B. The symptoms of brain shrinkage.
C. Ways to take good care of one’s teeth. D. The connection between the teeth and the brain.
29. How did researchers reach the conclusion
A. By making comparisons. B. By referring to previous studies.
C. By conducting a survey among dentists. D. By proving experts’ theory in experiments.
30. What do the research findings indicate
A. Gum disease is increasing among people.
B. Keeping teeth healthy is of great importance.
C. Removing natural teeth is bad for dental health.
D. Doing a routine dental checkup can avoid gum disease.
31. What is expected of the future studies according to Yamaguchi
A. Exploring treatments for gum disease.
B. Seeking new methods to improve brain health.
C. Involving people from other places in the research.
D. Applying the research to relieve Alzheimer’s disease.

Most autonomous vehicles test-driving in cities navigate (导航) by using 3-D maps marking every edge of roadside with almost centimeter-level accuracy. But few places have been mapped in such detail, which has left most areas like smaller towns inaccessible to those driverless cars.
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now have developed a new navigation system that guides autonomous vehicles without such accurate maps. This technology can help driverless cars travel almost anywhere.
The navigation system maps out a course down unfamiliar roads much as a human driver would by continually scanning its surroundings, with a laser sensor (激光感应器), to measure how close it is to the edges of the road. Meanwhile, the car also follows a tool like a smart phone map app that provides directions to its destination, as well as information about the rules of the road, such as speed limits and the positions of stoplights. Teddy Ort, a roboticist at MIT, test-drove a car equipped with this navigation system on a one-way road. It slowly traveled one kilometer without any human assistance.
This system assumes that a car has a clear path down the road, but it can be paired with other existing computing technology to discover in-road obstacles (障碍), says Ort. The researchers also plan to build a version of this system which can spot markings painted on streets, so that the car can drive on two-way roads. "Self-driving cars with this navigation system may need other sensors to work in different conditions,” Alexander Wyglinski, and electrical engineer at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. "Since laser sensors don’t work well in rain or snow, these cars might need additional imaging technologies to drive safely in bad weather. "
32. What may be a problem for most driverless cars
A. They fail in test-driving.
B Their maps are out-dated.
C. They run in limited areas.
D. Their guides are unreliable.
33. What can we infer about the MIT navigation system
A. It includes accurate maps.
B. It removes in-road obstacles.
C. It works by detecting the road.
D. It features a smart phone app.
34. What is the purpose of Paragraph 4
A. To confirm the test-drive results.
B. To indicate further research areas.
C. To recognize scientists’ achievements.
D. To show the creativity of driverless cars.
35. What is the main idea of the text
A. Autonomous cars beat human drivers on country roads.
B. Navigating self-driving cars may work in different conditions.
C. Smart mapping technology adds to the functions of self-driving cars.
D. A new navigation system helps autonomous cars drive remote roads.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad and I had been looking forward to the Stale cross-country race of my senior year of high school, which would be the climax (顶点) of my existence.
I was the fastest runner on my team, and I was supposed to make it into the top fifteen. We had been working towards this race for three years. It was everything to me, and it was everything to my dad. He was a runner and was wild with joy by my success in running. He made it to every race, even flying home early from business trips to see me run. I always listened for his voice, which rang above the crowd-telling me to relax my arms, calling out my time. He pushed me. He cheered for me. He believed in me. We spent countless hours on the sandy canals of Arizona. Breathing in the dust of the desert, the blossoms of the orange trees, and the terrible smell of the dairy farm, we made our way across the city. We pounded miles and miles into our running shoes, marking with every step the path to greatness. It was a journey that was just ours. A dream passed on from one generation to the next.
Then the big day came. It was hotter than normal - too hot. My throat felt like a field of cotton, cracked with the summer heat, as I waited for the gun to fire. I gazed out at the crowd; dozens of familiar faces from church and school flickered across my view. They had come for me. They were counting on me. I saw my dad set his watch, worry and excitement etched across his face. With the sound of a gunshot, the race began.
For the first two and half miles, I felt great. I had never before been so ready for something. The weeks leading up to the race were filled with hard practices and a strict diet. The scorching sun beat upon my back, blinding me with its brilliance. Nothing was going to stop me, though.
