阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。
You are running around in the park. But then suddenly, you fall and hurt yourself. "Ow!" you cry. This sound is very familiar to us all. Crying out when we get hurt is a natural reaction. But what is it about this sound that makes us shout it out
Scientists from the National University of Singapore now believe they've found the answer. The effort of shouting the word "ow" actually interferes (干预) with pain messages traveling to the brain. So by shouting it out, it distracts us from the feeling of pain.
The scientists tested how long volunteers could hold their hands in very cold water. There were five rounds of the test. In the first round, they were allowed to shout "ow" when they felt pain. In another round, they had to stay silent.
The results showed that volunteers were able to keep their hands in the cold water for longer when they were allowed to shout out. They managed around 30 seconds on average, five seconds more than when they had to remain silent.
"We found that a simple vocal act such as saying ‘ow' helps individuals deal with pain," the report from the scientists stated.
What's more, expressions of pain are shared among languages. While cries of "ow" or "ouch" are heard in English, South Africans yell "eina", Italians shout "ahia" and Chinese "aiyo".
Scientists said in the report: "Shared among these languages is a sound during which the mouth simply opens, the tongue lies flat (水平的) and the lips unrounded. It is a simple sound that requires little control while maximizing (充分利用) the volume. " So these sounds are useful to shout if we feel pain.
8．What does the underlined word "distracts" mean in Paragraph 2
A．表达 B．分散 C．增加 D．消失
9．According to the passage, the scientists found ____.
A．pain messages don't travel to the brain
B．a simple sound such as saying "ow" makes people happy
C．people in different countries express pain in the same language
D．shouting out "ow" reduces the feeling of pain
10．What do we know about the test
A．Volunteers were allowed to shout out in every round.
B．Volunteers felt less pain when they weren't allowed to shout out.
C．Volunteers stayed longer in cold water in the first round than in the second.
D．Volunteers all shouted the "ow" sound out in the test.
11．What is the passage mainly about
A．Any language is more exciting when we feel pain.
B．Shouting out is useful and helpful if you feel pain.
C．We should shout every day to stay healthy.
D．People shout to better express their feelings.

For 16﹣year﹣old Ma Yifei, the violin performance of the Beijing 2022 Olympic theme song, Snowflake, was her best present for Paralympians (残奥运动员) all over the world. Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance.
Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the "colorful" music through sound and emotion.
Ma's mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.
Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.
"After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises," said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, "As I've been practising so long, it's hard to give up I believe I will play better if I persist in practising. "
In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the Central Conservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.
Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. "All my hard work has paid off. I'm proud of standing on the stage today. "
16．How does the writer describe Ma's difficulties in learning the violin
A．By questioning. B．By listing numbers.

①Ma got a chance to study music in Beijing.

③Ma began to learn to play the piano.

A．③②④① B．①④③② C．④③①② D．②④③①
18．What does the underlined phrase "persist in" probably mean in Paragraph 5

C．Take pride in. D．Look forward to.
19．What does Ma's story tell us
A．Old habits die hard.
B．There is no place like home.

请阅读下面短文，根据短文内容从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Water is important to all living things but some areas in the world are short of water a lot. So we should try to protect and save water.
A group of students from Zhejiang University have successfully developed an "air hand-washing machine". The machine uses an infrared ray induction system (红外线感应系统), which can feel the presence of our hands. If it feels there are hands, the water with the air will come from the tap. And it has been proven that it is nearly as effective as traditional hand-washing. It uses only ten percent of the water that regular hand-washing does. The students have even set up a company to introduce the product to the public.
Li Qizhang, a member of the team that developed the machine, told a reporter that a model of their machine had already been placed in a classroom building at the university and it worked very well.
In 2014, a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands. Washing one's hands uses a lot of water, Chen thought. Would it be possible to replace the water with air Others may not give the question a second thought. However, for Chen and Li, who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学) at the time, this was considered to be an excellent idea.

A．形状 B．存在 C．距离 D．影响

A．other people may not spend a second thinking about the question again
B．other people may think it is impossible to use air instead of water
C．other people may not think or worry about the question at all
D．other people may think there is no answer to the question
22．We can infer from the passage that ____.
A．the air hand-washing machine will be expensive
B．you can wash your hands clean without any electricity
C．you can buy the "air hand-washing machine" in the shop now
D．the students developed the machine by the knowledge of fluid mechanics
23．Which of the following is TRUE about the "air hand-washing machine"
A．A company was set up to produce the machine.
B．It doesn't need any water when you wash your hand.
C．It was invented by two students from Zhejiang University.
D．The idea of the machine came to Chen's mind in a sudden.

Starting from January 1, 2024, students in the Netherlands (荷兰) can no longer use electronic products in school. However if the things are needed for learning, for health reasons, or for students with disabilities (残疾), they can still be used.
