Along with the birds flying over the Ailao Mountains in Yunnan province, a forest police team has similarly been “migrating” since September and will stay in the mountains until March to prevent poaching and other wildlife crimes.
Nicknamed the “migratory police station”, the seven officers with the forest police station of Hongtupo, Nanhua county, carry extra clothing, quilts and daily necessities while “migrating” in the forests on an annual mission to safeguard the bird travelers.
Zhang Yueping, who has worked at the station for 17 years, said the Ailao Mountains, which are rich in biodiversity, are located along an important route for 430 kinds of migratory birds.
According to Zhang, some local villagers who used to live in extreme poverty hunted birds for food or as a source of income, which resulted in a “silent mountain” where no birds were singing.
Jobs usually occur at night, when “we brave the darkness and bumpy mountain road with no torchlight to catch poachers,” according to Officer Yang Zhengqiang.
Officer Liu Yan, who once worked at the station, said winter was the hardest time, because her quilt was never dry due to the high humidity (潮湿) in the mountains.
Despite the hardships, officers said their work is worthwhile, with the number of birds as well as the number of species in the forests increasing over the years. Due to the combination of officers and technology, all kinds of animals and plants have returned to the reserve. “The environment is improving year by year, and people’s lives get better and they have stronger awareness of protection, making our jobs very fulfilling.” Zhang said.
4. What does the underlined word mean

5. What made the Ailao Mountain a “silent mountain”

A. They have to hunt for food because of poverty.
B. Their work becomes the hardest during summer.
C. They need to stay in the mountains throughout a year.
D. Their working conditions in the mountains are quite bad.
7 What is the main idea of the last paragraph

C. The lives of the local people have become better.

As celebrated in the United States, the holiday of Thanksgiving usually centers on a big meal. Typical dishes include bread stuffing, potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and above all, turkey. How did turkey become the centerpiece (最重要的菜) of this meal
It is often assumed that today’s Thanksgiving menu originated in an event commonly considered as the “first Thanksgiving”. There is indeed evidence of a meal shared between Pilgrim settlers and Wampanoag people in late 1621, but historians think it’s not sure that turkey was served. They believe that the Pilgrims provided wild fowl (飞禽), while the Wampanoag brought deer for meat. Passenger pigeons, ducks, and other birds may have been the main course. Turkey, if present, was likely a side dish.
In 1789, George Washington issued a Thanksgiving Proclamation (正式公告), marking the first official celebration of Thanksgiving in the US. However, turkeys were not yet related to Thanksgiving. About 38 years later, the writer Sarah Josepha described a New England Thanksgiving, with a roasted turkey placed at the head of the table in her novel Northwood. In 1863, after President Abraham Lincoln announced Thanksgiving a national holiday, and turkey has since become a cherished tradition in Thanksgiving celebrations.
At that time, Americans didn’t have access to supermarkets. But large numbers of wild turkeys lived on many people’s land, making them easy to get for the big pared to more expensive meats, turkey also provided a much lower price and could feed larger groups of people because it weighed more. These made turkey a practical and appealing choice, contributing to its long-lasting popularity as a centerpiece for Thanksgiving feasts.
Today, turkey continues to stand as the star of the Thanksgiving feast, symbolizing tradition, warmth, and the cherished moments shared with loved ones around the table.
8. What is the historians’ opinion about the original Thanksgiving meal
A. Turkey was unlikely to be served as a main course.
B. It was shared by two groups of Wampanoag people.
C. It was possibly started with deer meat as a side dish.
D. The food only included meat from some wild animals.
9. When was Thanksgiving first celebrated officially
A. In 1621. B. In 1789. C. In 1827. D. In 1863.
10. Why did turkey become popular as a centerpiece for Thanksgiving meals
A. It had unique cultural value. B. It tasted much more delicious.
C. It had more benefits for health. D. It was cheaper and easier to get.
11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How Did Turkey Became the Centerpiece of Thanksgiving
B. What Was the Centerpiece of the “First Thanksgiving”
C. Why Did We Start to Celebrate Thanksgiving Day
D. What Does the Thanksgiving Meal Symbolize
D
As Earth’s climate continues to change, a plant’s ability to adapt to its changing environment is important to its survival. Often, to stay alive, a plant must move locations by releasing its seeds, but plants are rooted in the ground and cannot move themselves. Instead, they are dependent on animals or the wind to carry their seeds to a new location.
Playing an essential part in an ecosystem (生态系统), plants create resources like food and medicine for us human beings. A team of researchers developed the model to better understand how plants can stay resiliency (韧性) when facing challenges like climate change.
“Once seeds are released from a plant, we wanted to know how far they can go because as wind conditions shake, the seeds will be moved around differently because of various weights, sizes, and shapes,” says Binbin Wang, an assistant professor at the University of Missouri.
Changes in one part of the ecosystem can create a “snowball effect” on other parts. That’s why understanding seed spread is important. Plants can only make this move once during their life — as a seed, says Lauren Sullivan, an assistant professor at Michigan State University.
“Understanding how plants move as seeds year-round is important for us to analyze how they’ll be able to handle climate change,” Sullivan says. “This movement is also important for how we can increase diversity (多样性) in the ecosystem.” “We’re now able to partner with researchers. This innovative approach can help us develop accurate models that are simple enough to make good predictions in a short time.”
The model, which makes predictions based on seed and plant type, plant height, and wind speed, can develop an entire year’s worth of predictive data in just one or two days. As part of their future work, the team will develop educational programming for K-12 and college students. For example, they will provide opportunities for college students to explore how different disciplines, such as agriculture, biological sciences, and engineering, can work together to solve different real-world problems.
12. Why did the researchers develop the model
A. To learn how plants handle challenges like climate change.
B. To find out what helps seeds travel to different places.
C. To study the effects climate change has on plants.
D. To create more food and medicine resources.
13. Which of the following may not influence how far a seed can travel according to Binbin Wang
A. Its weight. B. Its location. C. Its size. D. Its shape.
14. What can we learn about the “movement” of plants from paragraph 4 and 5
A. It is caused by the change of the climate.
B. It can happen during the whole life of a plant.
C. It has an effect on other parts of the ecosystem.
D. It’s hard to be predicted for the diversity of ecosystem.
15. What do the researchers plan to do next
A. Explore different disciplines for college students.
B. Work together to solve different real-world problems.
C. Develop educational programming for students to explore.
D. Make valuable predictions about the type and height of the plants.

Along with the birds flying over the Ailao Mountains in Yunnan province, a forest police team has similarly been “migrating” since September and will stay in the mountains until March to prevent poaching and other wildlife crimes.
Nicknamed the “migratory police station”, the seven officers with the forest police station of Hongtupo, Nanhua county, carry extra clothing, quilts and daily necessities while “migrating” in the forests on an annual mission to safeguard the bird travelers.
Zhang Yueping, who has worked at the station for 17 years, said the Ailao Mountains, which are rich in biodiversity, are located along an important route for 430 kinds of migratory birds.
According to Zhang, some local villagers who used to live in extreme poverty hunted birds for food or as a source of income, which resulted in a “silent mountain” where no birds were singing.
Jobs usually occur at night, when “we brave the darkness and bumpy mountain road with no torchlight to catch poachers,” according to Officer Yang Zhengqiang.
Officer Liu Yan, who once worked at the station, said winter was the hardest time, because her quilt was never dry due to the high humidity (潮湿) in the mountains.
Despite the hardships, officers said their work is worthwhile, with the number of birds as well as the number of species in the forests increasing over the years. Due to the combination of officers and technology, all kinds of animals and plants have returned to the reserve. “The environment is improving year by year, and people’s lives get better and they have stronger awareness of protection, making our jobs very fulfilling.” Zhang said.

As celebrated in the United States, the holiday of Thanksgiving usually centers on a big meal. Typical dishes include bread stuffing, potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and above all, turkey. How did turkey become the centerpiece (最重要的菜) of this meal
It is often assumed that today’s Thanksgiving menu originated in an event commonly considered as the “first Thanksgiving”. There is indeed evidence of a meal shared between Pilgrim settlers and Wampanoag people in late 1621, but historians think it’s not sure that turkey was served. They believe that the Pilgrims provided wild fowl (飞禽), while the Wampanoag brought deer for meat. Passenger pigeons, ducks, and other birds may have been the main course. Turkey, if present, was likely a side dish.
In 1789, George Washington issued a Thanksgiving Proclamation (正式公告), marking the first official celebration of Thanksgiving in the US. However, turkeys were not yet related to Thanksgiving. About 38 years later, the writer Sarah Josepha described a New England Thanksgiving, with a roasted turkey placed at the head of the table in her novel Northwood. In 1863, after President Abraham Lincoln announced Thanksgiving a national holiday, and turkey has since become a cherished tradition in Thanksgiving celebrations.
At that time, Americans didn’t have access to supermarkets. But large numbers of wild turkeys lived on many people’s land, making them easy to get for the big pared to more expensive meats, turkey also provided a much lower price and could feed larger groups of people because it weighed more. These made turkey a practical and appealing choice, contributing to its long-lasting popularity as a centerpiece for Thanksgiving feasts.
Today, turkey continues to stand as the star of the Thanksgiving feast, symbolizing tradition, warmth, and the cherished moments shared with loved ones around the table.
8. What is the historians’ opinion about the original Thanksgiving meal
A. Turkey was unlikely to be served as a main course.
B. It was shared by two groups of Wampanoag people.
C. It was possibly started with deer meat as a side dish.
D. The food only included meat from some wild animals.
9. When was Thanksgiving first celebrated officially
A. In 1621. B. In 1789. C. In 1827. D. In 1863.
10. Why did turkey become popular as a centerpiece for Thanksgiving meals
A. It had unique cultural value. B. It tasted much more delicious.
C. It had more benefits for health. D. It was cheaper and easier to get.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How Did Turkey Became the Centerpiece of Thanksgiving
B. What Was the Centerpiece of the “First Thanksgiving”
C. Why Did We Start to Celebrate Thanksgiving Day
D. What Does the Thanksgiving Meal Symbolize
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了感恩节吃火鸡的起源。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“but historians think it’s not sure that turkey was served (但历史学家认为不确定是否上了火鸡)”和 “Turkey, if present, was likely a side dish. (如果有火鸡的话，也很可能是一道配菜。)”可知，历史学家不认为火鸡是第一个感恩节大餐的主菜。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的 “In 1789, George Washington issued a Thanksgiving Proclamation (正式公告) , marking the first official celebration of Thanksgiving in the US. (1789年，乔治·华盛顿发布了感恩节公告，标志着美国第一次正式庆祝感恩节。)”可知， 1789年第一次官方庆祝感恩节。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段内容“At that time, Americans didn’t have access to supermarkets. But large numbers of wild turkeys lived on many people’s land, making them easy to get for the big pared to more expensive meats, turkey also provided a much lower price and could feed larger groups of people because it weighed more. These made turkey a practical and appealing choice, contributing to its long-lasting popularity as a centerpiece for Thanksgiving feasts. (那时候，美国人还没有进入超市的机会。但是大量的野生火鸡生活在许多人的土地上，这使得它们很容易成为大餐。与更昂贵的肉类相比，火鸡的价格要低得多，而且由于重量更重，可以养活更多的人。这些都使火鸡成为一个实用而有吸引力的选择，使它成为感恩节大餐的核心，经久不衰。)”可知，火鸡成为感恩节大餐最重要的部分是因为它很容易买到，而且价格合理。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“How did turkey become the centerpiece (最重要的菜) of this meal (火鸡是如何成为这顿饭最重要的菜的？)”可知，文章围绕感恩节“吃火鸡”这一传统而展开，介绍了第一个感恩节“吃火鸡”的起源、感恩节成为国定假日与火鸡成为感恩节大餐的重要食物的发展历程和原因，以及火鸡美好的象征寓意。由此可知，A项“火鸡是如何成为感恩节最重要的菜的 ”能够概括文章主旨，故选A。

As Earth’s climate continues to change, a plant’s ability to adapt to its changing environment is important to its survival. Often, to stay alive, a plant must move locations by releasing its seeds, but plants are rooted in the ground and cannot move themselves. Instead, they are dependent on animals or the wind to carry their seeds to a new location.
Playing an essential part in an ecosystem (生态系统) plants create resources like food and medicine for us human beings. A team of researchers developed the model to better understand how plants can stay resiliency (韧性) when facing challenges like climate change.
“Once seeds are released from a plant, we wanted to know how far they can go because as wind conditions shake, the seeds will be moved around differently because of various weights, sizes, and shapes,” says Binbin Wang, an assistant professor at the University of Missouri.
Changes in one part of the ecosystem can create a “snowball effect” on other parts. That’s why understanding seed spread is important. Plants can only make this move once during their life — as a seed, says Lauren Sullivan, an assistant professor at Michigan State University.
“Understanding how plants move as seeds year-round is important for us to analyze how they’ll be able to handle climate change,” Sullivan says. “This movement is also important for how we can increase diversity (多样性) in the ecosystem.” “We’re now able to partner with researchers. This innovative approach can help us develop accurate models that are simple enough to make good predictions in a short time.”
The model which makes predictions based on seed and plant type, plant height, and wind speed, can develop an entire year’s worth of predictive data in just one or two days. As part of their future work, the team will develop educational programming for K-12 and college students. For example, they will provide opportunities for college students to explore how different disciplines, such as agriculture, biological sciences, and engineering, can work together to solve different real-world problems.
12. Why did the researchers develop the model
A. To learn how plants handle challenges like climate change.
B. To find out what helps seeds travel to different places.
C. To study the effects climate change has on plants.
D. To create more food and medicine resources.
13. Which of the following may not influence how far a seed can travel according to Binbin Wang
A. Its weight. B. Its location. C. Its size. D. Its shape.
14. What can we learn about the “movement” of plants from paragraph 4 and 5
A. It is caused by the change of the climate.
B. It can happen during the whole life of a plant.
C. It has an effect on other parts of the ecosystem.
D. It’s hard to be predicted for the diversity of ecosystem.
15. What do the researchers plan to do next
A. Explore different disciplines for college students.
B. Work together to solve different real-world problems.
C. Develop educational programming for students to explore.
D. Make valuable predictions about the type and height of the plants.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了植物是如何在不同情况下散播种子的。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“‘Understanding how plants move as seeds year-round is important for us to analyze how they’ll be able to handle climate change,’ Sullivan says. ‘This movement is also important for how we can increase diversity (多样性) in the ecosystem.’(‘了解植物如何全年作为种子移动，对我们分析它们如何应对气候变化很重要。’Sullivan说。‘这一运动对于我们如何增加生态系统的多样性也很重要。’)”可知，研究人员开发模型是为了了解植物如何应对气候变化等挑战。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“the seeds will be moved around differently because of various weights, sizes, and shapes(由于种子的重量、大小和形状不同，它们会以不同的方式移动)”可知，种子的位置不会影响传播距离，故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Changes in one part of the ecosystem can create a ‘snowball effect’ on other parts. That’s why understanding seed spread is important.(生态系统一部分的变化会对其他部分产生‘滚雪球效应’。这就是为什么了解种子的传播是很重要的)”可知，植物的“运动”对生态系统的其他部分也有影响，故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“the team will develop educational programming for K-12 and college students. For example, they will provide opportunities for college students to explore how different disciplines(该团队将为K-12和大学生开发教育项目。例如，他们将为大学生提供探索不同学科的机会)”可知，研究人员计划开发教育项目供学生探索，故选C。

“Hey! The thermometer (温度计) reading shows 39℃ !” shouted Lily.
“What This is critical right ” questioned Bella as she touched Emily’s forehead. “You are burning now. How do you feel ” she continued. “Terrible,” replied Emily with a weak voice.
Lily said, “I’ll get her some medicine from the doctor and a sound sleep will help her get better I guess.”
Emily, Bella, Lily and Anna were roommates and friends. These four were always together. But Emily and Anna were much closer to each other. As Emily’s father passed away when she was 12 and lived only with her mother, she just considered Anna her family. So although Emily was surrounded by Lily and Bella, she needed Anna by her side. However, to her great disappointment, Anna wasn’t there.
“Where is Anna Where has she gone ” asked Emily.
“She rushed out just now. But she didn’t tell us where she went,” replied Bella.
Hearing Bella’s words, Emily started to feel angry towards her friend. She had fever and was in pain. How could she just went out without any explanation She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.
In the evening, Anna finally returned. But Emily just refused to talk to her until her mother called to ask about her health.
“How are you feeling, my dear ” asked Emily’s mother.
“I’m much better now mom. But how do you know I’m having a fever ” Emily didn’t know why her mother had known her illness.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Emily, Bella, Lily和Anna四个女孩既是室友又是朋友，但Emily把Anna看作家人。Emily发烧后Anna没打招呼就离开了，这让Emily很失望，但后天她才知道原来Anna去她家里接她妈妈去医院了。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一至三段的内容可知，Emily发烧后Lily和Bella在她身边照顾她，所以第一个空应用attend(照顾)，且Emily和attend之间是动宾关系，并结合文中时态可知，这里应用一般过去时的被动语态，即was attended。根据第二段中的“‘Terrible,’ replied Emily with a weak voice.(‘很糟糕，’Emily用微弱的声音回答。)”可知，Emily感觉很虚弱、很不舒服，所以第二空应用comfortable的反义词uncomfortable(不舒服的)。根据第四段中的“Emily, Bella, Lily and Anna were roommates and friends. These four were always together. But Emily and Anna were much closer to each other.(Emily, Bella, Lily和Anna是室友和朋友。这四人总是在一起。但Emily和Anna的关系要亲密得多。)”可知，这四个女孩相处很好，但Emily和Anna的关系尤为亲密，第三空应用especial的副词形式especially(特别，尤其)，修饰close。根据第四段中的“However, to her great disappointment, Anna wasn’t there.(然而，令她非常失望的是，Anna不在现场。)”可知，当Emily得知Anna没有和她在一起时，她很失望，第四空应用disappoint的形容词形式disappointed(失望的)，作表语。根据第六段“‘She rushed out just now. But she didn’t tell us where she went,’ replied Bella.(Bella回答说：‘她刚才冲了出去。但她没有告诉我们她去了哪里。’)”可知，Bella说Anna没说为什么就离开了，leave意为“离开”，且leave表示的动作发生在过去的过去，应用过去完成时，所以第五空应用had left。根据第七段中的“Hearing Bella’s words, Emily started to feel angry towards her friend.(听到Bella的话，Emily开始对她的朋友感到愤怒。)”和“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”可知，Emily对Anna感到生气，认为她很自私，所以第六空应用anger的形容词angry(生气的)作表语，且这里表示过去发生的事情，因此第七空应用consider(认为)的过去式considered。根据第八段中的“But Emily just refused to talk to her until her mother called to ask about her health.(但Emily就是拒绝和她说话，直到她的母亲打电话询问她的健康状况。)”和最后一段内容可知，Emily的妈妈打来电话告诉她自己发生的事故和Anna的善举，所以第八空应用ring(打电话)的过去式rang，第九空应用kind(善良的)的名词形式kindness(善良，好心的举动)。根据倒数第二段中的“But how do you know I’m having a fever (但你怎么知道我发烧了？)”可知，Emily对妈妈知道自己生病感到惊讶，所以第十空应用surprise的形容词surprised(惊讶的)作表语。故填was attended；uncomfortable；especially；disappointed；had left；angry；considered；rang；kindness；surprised。
【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中妈妈的话“I called you this morning. I fell off the ladder when I was trying to repair the roof, but you didn’t answer. Then I called Anna and told her what had happened. She said you were asleep because of the fever. And she just rushed to our house and took me to the hospital. But don’t worry, the doctor had checked me. There is nothing serious and I just need some rest.(我今天早上给你打电话。我在修理屋顶时从梯子上摔了下来，但你没有接。然后我打电话给Anna，告诉她发生了什么事。她说你发烧睡着了。她就赶到我们家，把我送到医院。但别担心，医生已经检查过我了。没有什么大碍，我只需要休息一下。)”可知，妈妈告诉Emily自己从梯子上摔下来了，Anna自己跑到她家帮妈妈送到医院检查，最终医生确定妈妈没事，由此可推测出，Emily会对妈妈摔下来感到担心，对Anna帮妈妈感到感激，并结合第七段中的“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”可知，Emily应该还会为自己的行为感到羞愧。故答案为：She might be worried about her mother, grateful to Anna and ashamed of herself.
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段中的“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”和第八段“In the evening, Anna finally returned. But Emily just refused to talk to her until her mother called to ask about her health.(晚上，Anna终于回来了。但Emily就是拒绝和她说话，直到她的母亲打电话询问她的健康状况。)”可知，Emily一开始认为Anna很自私，拒绝和Anna说话，由此可推测出，当Emily听到妈妈讲了Anna的善举后，她应该会和Anna说话，并真诚向她道歉。故答案为：She might talk to Anna and apologize to her sincerely.
【49题详解】
推理判断题。结合第二题和第三题的分析并通读全文可知，Anna是一个善良且热心肠的女孩，所以当Emily向她道歉时，她会原谅Emily，二人之间的关系变得比之前更亲密。故答案为：Anna might forgive Emily and the two might become even closer to each other.
