A
The year 2023 witnessed the occurrence of significant cultural events, with culture and tourism becoming even more closely connected. Let’s review the major cultural events of 2023 as we bid farewell to the year and embrace the new year of 2024!
Museum visits rise in popularity in summer
Tourists were seen queuing for long hours in front of museums and obtaining entrance tickets became more challenging. In response to the growing demand, 46 museums in Beijing canceled their customary Monday closures and remained open daily until August 31. The rise in “museum fever” can be credited to various factors, including the public’s increasing enthusiasm for traditional Chinese culture, the booming market for youth educational tours and summer camps, as well as the continuous innovation of museums.
Old tea forests in Pu’er win World Heritage Site title
The newly named heritage site, located in Lancang Lahu autonomous county in Pu’er, Yunnan province, consists of five large-scale, well-preserved old tea forests, which stand 1,250 to 1,500 meters above the sea level, three protective barrier forests, and nine ancient villages in the old tea forests, which are mainly inhabited by Blang and Dai ethnic groups. The cultural landscape was jointly created by the ancestors of the Blang people—who immigrated to the Jingmai Mountain in the 10th century AD and later discovered and domesticated wild tea trees—and the native Dai people.
Protection plan released for Beijing’s Central Axis
The plan is said to be one of the necessary steps toward bidding for UNESCO World Heritage status. Alongside regulations on the protection of the Central Axis carried out earlier, the plan is in line with the requirements of World Heritage conservation. The 21 member countries of the World Heritage Committee will decide on whether Beijing’s Central Axis can be added to the World Heritage List at the committee’s 46th annual conference in 2024. If the application succeeds, it will reinforce Beijing’s top position among cities worldwide by number of World Heritage Sites.
1. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the rise in “museum fever”
A. Museums’ ceaseless innovation.
B. The constant innovation of summer camps.
C. The growing market for youth educational tours.
D. People’s growing passion for traditional Chinese culture.
2. Which of the following statements is TRUE concerning the cultural events
A. 46 museums in Beijing stayed open all year round.
B. The Blang people are the natives in Jingmai Mountain.
C. The heritage site in Pu’er consists of four large old tea forests.
D. Beijing’s Central Axis hasn’t been added to the World Heritage List yet.
3. In which magazine would a reader most likely find this text
A. Wonders of the Natural World B. Scientific Exploration
C. Chinese Culture Research D. Art and Architecture
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了2023年中国发生的三个重大文化事件。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Museum visits rise in popularity in summer”下面的“The rise in ‘museum fever’ can be credited to various factors, including the public’s increasing enthusiasm for traditional Chinese culture, the booming market for youth educational tours and summer camps, as well as the continuous innovation of museums.(‘博物馆热’的兴起可归因于多种因素，包括公众对中国传统文化的热情日益高涨，青少年教育旅行和夏令营市场的蓬勃发展，以及博物馆的不断创新。)”可知，“博物馆热”的兴起有多种因素，包括公众对中国传统文化的热情日益高涨，青少年教育旅行和夏令营市场的蓬勃发展，以及博物馆的不断创新，选项A、选项C、选项D均符合题意，B项“夏令营的不断创新”不符合文章内容。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The 21 member countries of the World Heritage Committee will decide on whether Beijing’s Central Axis can be added to the World Heritage List at the committee’s 46th annual conference in 2024.(世界遗产委员会的21个成员国将在2024年的第46届年会上决定是否将北京中轴线列入世界遗产名录。)”可知，北京中轴线目前还没有被列入世界遗产名录，所以D项正确。选项A、选项B、选项C可分别根据“Museum visits rise in popularity in summer”下面的“In response to the growing demand, 46 museums in Beijing canceled their customary Monday closures and remained open daily until August 31.(为了应对日益增长的需求，北京的46家博物馆取消了周一的惯例闭馆，每天开放至8月31日。)”、“Old tea forests in Pu’er win World Heritage Site title”下面的“The cultural landscape was jointly created by the ancestors of the Blang people—who immigrated to the Jingmai Mountain in the 10th century AD and later discovered and domesticated wild tea trees—and the native Dai people.(这里的文化景观是由布朗人的祖先和当地的傣族共同创造的，布朗人于公元10世纪移民到景迈山，后来发现并培育了野生茶树。)”和“The newly named heritage site, located in Lancang Lahu autonomous county in Pu’er, Yunnan province, consists of five large-scale, well-preserved old tea forests, which stand 1,250 to 1,500 meters above the sea level, three protective barrier forests, and nine ancient villages in the old tea forests, which are mainly inhabited by Blang and Dai ethnic groups.(新命名的遗产地位于云南省普洱市澜沧拉祜族自治县，由海拔1250米至1500米的五个保存完好的大型老茶林、三个防护屏障林和九个老茶林古村落组成，老茶林中主要居住着布朗族和傣族。)”得知陈述错误。故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Let’s review the major cultural events of 2023 as we bid farewell to the year and embrace the new year of 2024!(让我们一起回顾2023年的重大文化事件，告别这一年，迎接2024年的新一年！)”并结合下文内容可知，本文主要介绍了2023年中国发生的三个重大文化事件。由此可推测出，本篇文章最有可能出自《中国文化研究》杂志。故选C。
B
When Stanford University student Ellen Xu was a five-year-old in California, she vividly recalls her parents rushing her little sister to the hospital. Three-year-old Kate had fallen acutely ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, a rash and some swelling in her hands and tongue.
At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had influenza, but when her condition didn’t improve, the Xus returned to the emergency room, where a doctor by chance had prior experience with an acute inflammatory (炎症性的) reaction in the blood vessels known as Kawasaki disease. Though rare, it’s the leading cause of acquired heart disease in babies and young children, and its cause and triggers remain somewhat mysterious. The doctor knew how to treat it: He ordered a dose of intravenous immunoglobulin, and eventually Kate shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart.
Xu remembers being curious about her sister’s dramatic condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn’t answer her questions about why it was so hard to detect. “In my mind, it was this mystery, she says. ”It was a puzzle I wanted to solve. “
A decade later, wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea: ”What if we had a doctor in our pocket “ So she created just that: Using AT, Xu designed an algorithm(算法) that uses visual data to diagnose (诊断) Kawasaki disease based on five physical symptoms.
The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you’ve taken on your cellphone. Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the image for symptoms of Kawasaki disease, which often have a strong visual element, such as a rash or a swollen tongue.
Xu’s invention has been applied as a web app on the Kawasaki Disease Foundation’s website without charge. ”The technology could also be developed for recognizing auto-immune and rheumatological (风湿病学的) diseases, “ she says. ”It means a lot to me. I want to use Al to help people live happier and healthier lives. “
4. Why was Kawasaki disease so hard to diagnose
A. It had no symptoms.
B. It had never been known before.
C. It could be confused with influenza.
D. It couldn’t be diagnosed by medical instruments.
5. What’s the function of the first three paragraphs
A. To describe the bad results of the disease.
B. To introduce a case remaining mysterious.
C. To show why Xu developed the technology.
D. To prove doctors should accumulate clinical experience.
6. What’s the advantage of Xu’s invention
A. It is convenient and cheap.
B. It can take the place of doctors.
C. It can treat Kawasaki disease quickly.
D. It can diagnose Kawasaki disease via scanned pictures.
7. What can be learned from the text
A. The technology is an AI-powered diagnosed tool.
B. Xu had the idea of the technology when Kate was treated.
C. The technology can’t be applied to diagnose other diseases.
D. Influenza is the leading reason of acquired heart disease in babies.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了女孩Ellen小时候见到医生们一开始没有正确诊断出妹妹Kate生的病，后来Kate遇到一名碰巧有过相似经历的医生，才得到有效的治疗，因对妹妹病情的好奇，以及医生无法检查出这种罕见病的惊讶，Ellen在十年后利用人工智能技术创造了一个程序，可以根据症状检测疾病，帮助人们快速获得诊断，改善健康状况，她的发明已被应用于网页应用程序中，她希望通过人工智能帮助更多人过上更快乐、更健康的生活。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段第一句“At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had influenza, but when her condition didn’t improve, the Xus returned to the emergency room, where a doctor by chance had prior experience with an acute inflammatory (炎症性的) reaction in the blood vessels known as Kawasaki disease.”（起初，困惑的医生们以为她得了流感，但当她的病情没有好转时，徐一家人回到了急诊室，一位医生偶然有过急性炎症的经历，血管中的急性炎症反应称为川崎病。）可知，医生一开始以为她得了流感，说明这种疾病很容易与流感混淆，难以诊断，所以病情没有好转。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。文章的前两段叙述了Ellen在5岁时经历妹妹Kate得病的情景，以及Kate最终通过一位医生发现并治疗了罕见病的过程，以及文章第三段“Xu remembers being curious about her sister’s dramatic condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn’t answer her questions about why it was so hard to detect. “In my mind, it was this mystery, she says. ”It was a puzzle I wanted to solve.””（徐记得当时她很好奇妹妹的突然性状况，并惊讶于成年人无法回答她为什么很难发现的问题。“在我看来，这就是一个谜，”她说，“这是一个我想解开的谜题。”）可知，因为妹妹的病情，Ellen萌生了想要解决这个问题的念头，由此可知，前三段是Ellen想解开心中难题的动机，所以后来利用人工智能技术创造了一个程序。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the image for symptoms of Kawasaki disease, which often have a strong visual element, such as a rash or a swollen tongue.”（忧心忡忡的父母可以上传他们为孩子拍摄的照片，这项技术将扫描图像以寻找川崎病的症状，川崎病通常具有强烈的视觉因素，如皮疹或舌头肿胀。）可知，它可以通过扫描图片诊断川崎病。故选D项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“So she created just that: Using AT, Xu designed an algorithm( 算法 ) that uses visual data to diagnose (诊断) Kawasaki disease based on five physical symptoms.”（所以她创造了这个：使用人工智能，徐设计了一个算法，它使用视觉数据进行诊断以五种身体症状为基础的川崎病）可知，该技术是一种人工智能驱动的诊断工具。故选A项。
C
Recently it has dawned on the government that closing more than 1,000 of England’s railway station ticket offices would not be very smart politics.The transport secretary, Mark Harper,announced that train operators had been asked to withdraw the cost-cutting strategy, which the government itself had originally pushed on them.The writing was already on the wall in the summer,when public anger led to an extension of the consultation period on the proposed closures.By the time it ended,750,000 responses had been recorded,99%of them negative.
The public’s concerns were over future access to travel advice and information,assistance for disabled people,safety at understaffed stations,and consequences for the digitally excluded. But the passionate opposition also underlined a widespread sense that railway stations must be more than transit(交通)bined with a reformed ticketing system,that insight should now inform a positive approach to breathing life into England’s railways and attracting more people back on to trains.
As a report published this autumn by the Campaign for Better Transport sets out,there is an urgent case for fairer ticketing reform across the network.For over a decade,the relative cost of taking the train rather than the car has skyrocketed,as fares have risen while fuel duty has been frozen.Over a third of the public are confused by the numerous types of ticket available,and the complex regulations that apply to them.Why should an anytime return from Chelmsford to London cost &32.60,when to cover the same distance from Grays to London costs E 13.40
The failed attempt to shut down ticket offices had its roots in a short-term ministerial response to falling revenues(收入).But as the country strives to achieve a challenging green transition,the government should work to establish a simpler,fairer ticketing system that offers imaginative rewards to take the train;and to develop an ambitious plan for our stations —one that reflects their important role in the lives of the travelling public.
8. What does the underlined words in the first paragraph probably mean
A. The public expressed their anger.
B. The proposal was put up on a wall.
C. Unfavorable outcome was expected.
D. The government adopted the policy.
9. What can be inferred about England’s railways
A. They have expanded their services.
B. They have undergone ticketing reform.
C. They have included more transit zones.
D. They have seen a decline in public favor.
10. What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on
A. The popularity of car ownership.
B. The development of ticketing reform.
C. The problems of the ticketing system.
D. The application of complex regulations.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Rising Prices of Train Travel
B. Urgent Calls for Rail Revival
C. Failed Closure of Railway Stations
D. Tough Route to Green Transit Initiatives
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍英国火车站售票系统需要改革以吸引更多人乘坐火车出行。
【详解】1. 词句猜测题。根据划线句上文“Recently it has dawned on the government that closing more than 1,000 of England’s railway station ticket offices would not be very smart politics.(最近，英国政府意识到，关闭英国1000多个火车站售票处并不是一个明智的政治决策)”及下文“when public anger led to an extension of the consultation period on the proposed closures(当公众的愤怒导致建议关闭的咨询期延长时)”及“By the time it ended,750,000 responses had been recorded,99%of them negative.(到调查结束时，已经收到了75万条反馈，其中99%是否定的)”可知，这项决议没有得到支持，划线句意思为：不好的结果出现了，与C选项“预料到会出现不利结果”意思相近。故选C项。
2. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Combined with a reformed ticketing system,that insight should now inform a positive approach to breathing life into England’s railways and attracting more people back on to trains.(与改革后的票务系统相结合，这种见解现在应该为英格兰铁路注入活力并吸引更多的人重返火车提供积极的途径)”可推知，英国铁路系统的支持人数下降了。故选D项。
3. 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“As a report published this autumn by the Campaign for Better Transport sets out,there is an urgent case for fairer ticketing reform across the network.For over a decade,the relative cost of taking the train rather than the car has skyrocketed,as fares have risen while fuel duty has been frozen.Over a third of the public are confused by the numerous types of ticket available,and the complex regulations that apply to them.(正如“改善交通运动”今年秋天发布的一份报告所指出的，在整个铁路网络中，迫切需要进行更公平的票务改革。十多年来，乘坐火车而不是汽车的相对成本一直在飙升，因为票价上涨了，而燃油税却保持不变。超过三分之一的公众对种类繁多的车票以及适用于这些车票的复杂规定感到困惑)”可知，本段主要讲述现在的票价不合理，且票价类型也很令人困惑，即描述了票务系统的问题。故选C项。
4. 主旨大意题。根据全文尤其是最后一段“But as the country strives to achieve a challenging green transition,the government should work to establish a simpler,fairer ticketing system that offers imaginative rewards to take the train;and to develop an ambitious plan for our stations —one that reflects their important role in the lives of the travelling public.(但是，随着国家努力实现具有挑战性的绿色转型，政府应该努力建立一个更简单、更公平的票务系统，为乘坐火车的人提供富有想象力的奖励;并为我们的车站制定一个雄心勃勃的计划——一个反映它们在旅行公众生活中的重要作用的计划)”可知，本文主要介绍英国铁路票价及售票系统的问题，以及为了吸引更多人乘坐火车绿色出行所提出的改革措施。B选项“铁路复兴的紧急呼吁”适合最为最佳标题。故选B项。
D
Every decision we make is arrived at through hugely complex neurological processing. Although it feels as though you have a choice, the action that you ‘decide’ to take is entirely directed by automatic neural activity. Brain imaging studies show that a person’s action can be predicted by their brain activity up to 10 seconds before they themselves become aware they are going to act. Multiple neuroscientific studies show that even those important decisions that feel worked out are just as automatic as knee-jerk reactions (膝跳反应) (although more complex).
Decision-making starts with the amygdala: a set of two almond-shaped nuclei (杏仁状核) buried deep within the brain, which generate emotion. The amygdala registers the information streaming in through our senses and responds to it in less than a second, sending signals throughout the brain. These produce an urge to run, fight, freeze or grab, according to how the amygdala values various stimuli.
Before we act on the amygdala’s signals, however, the information is usually processed by other brain areas, including some that produce conscious thoughts and emotions. Areas concerned with recognition work out what’s going on, those concerned with memory compare it with previous experiences, and those concerned with reasoning, judging and planning get to work on constructing various action plans. The best plan—if we are lucky—is then selected and carried out. If any of this process goes wrong, we are likely to hesitate, or do something silly.
The various stages of decision-making are marked by different types of brain activity. Fast (gamma)waves, with frequencies of 25 to 100 Hz, produce a keen awareness of the multiple factors that need to be taken into account to arrive at a decision. If you are trying to choose a sandwich, for instance, gamma waves generated in various cells within the ‘taste’ area of the brain bring to mind and compare the taste of ham, hummus, wholemeal, sourdough, and so on. Although it may seem useful to be aware of the full range of choice, too much information makes decision-making more difficult, so irrelevant factors get dismissed quickly and unconsciously.
After this comparison stage, the brain switches to slow-wave activity (12 to 30 Hz). This extinguishes most of the gamma activity, leaving just a single ‘hotspot’ of gamma waves which marks the chosen option.
Although there is no ‘you’ outside your brain to direct what it’s doing, you can help it to make good decisions by placing yourself in a situation which is likely to make the process run more smoothly. Doing something that is physically or mentally stimulating before making a decision will help your brain produce the initial gamma waves that generate awareness of the competing options. Getting over-excited, on the other hand, will prevent the switch to the slow brainwaves, making it much harder to single out a choice.
12. Why does the writer mention “knee-jerk reactions” in the first paragraph
A. To introduce the finding of the latest brain imaging studies.
B. To illustrate that decisions are not consciously thought out.
C. To call attention to a kind of neural reaction that is not very complex.
D. To show the difference between decision-making and other brain activity.
13. What does the amygdala do according to the passage
A. It works out conscious thoughts and emotions.
B. It selects the best action plan for a given situation.
C. It dismisses factors that are irrelevant to the decision to be made.
D. It processes sensory information and generates emotional responses.
14. What can be concluded from paragraphs 4 and 5
A. Slow-wave activity usually lasts longer than fast-wave activity.
B. The brain prioritizes information before settling on a final choice.
C. Decision-making is difficult when slow-wave activity occurs first.
D. The brain needs as much information as possible to make a decision.
15. How does engaging in stimulating activities help the decision-making process
A. By preparing the brain to single out the most reasonable choice.
B. By helping the brain switch to slow-wave activity more quickly.
C. By getting the brain to focus on those most relevant alternatives.
D. By making the brain more aware of the factors and choices involved.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们在做决定时，大脑中杏仁核的活动及其他部位的活动情况，因此在做决定之前可以做一些刺激身体或精神的事情，来帮助你的大脑产生最初的伽马波。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。第一段最后两句提到“Brain imaging studies show that a person’s action can be predicted by their brain activity up to 10 seconds before they themselves become aware they are going to act. Multiple neuroscientific studies show that even those important decisions that feel worked out are just as automatic as knee-jerk reactions (膝跳反应) (although more complex).”（脑成像研究表明，一个人的行为可以在他们意识到自己将要采取行动之前10秒通过他们的大脑活动来预测。多项神经科学研究表明，即使是那些让人感觉已经做出的重要决定，也和膝跳反应一样是自动的(尽管更复杂)。）可知，膝跳反应是一种最简单的二元反射，几乎不需要时间就会有相应的反应，而文中将做决定这一大脑活动和膝跳反应作类比，说明大脑在做决定时也是下意识的反应。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。第二段提到“Decision-making starts with the amygdala: a set of two almond-shaped nuclei buried deep within the brain, which generate emotion. The amygdala registers the information streaming in through our senses and responds to it in less than a second, sending signals throughout the brain. These produce an urge to run, fight, freeze or grab, according to how the amygdala values various stimuli.”（决策始于杏仁核：埋藏在大脑深处的一组两个杏仁状的核，产生情感。杏仁核记录了通过我们的感官流入的信息，并在不到一秒的时间内做出反应，将信号发送到整个大脑。根据杏仁核对各种刺激的评价，这些刺激会产生奔跑、战斗、冻结或抓取的冲动。）由此判断，杏仁核会产生情感，并针对感官接受的信息做出相对应的行为刺激。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。第四段第二句提到“Fast (gamma)waves, with frequencies of 25 to 100 Hz, produce a keen awareness of the multiple factors that need to be taken into account to arrive at a decision.”（频率在25到100赫兹之间的快速(伽马)波，能让人敏锐地意识到需要考虑的多种因素，从而做出决定。）大脑在做决定之前，会考虑各种信息，第五段提到“After this comparison stage, the brain switches to slow-wave activity (12 to 30 Hz). This extinguishes most of the gamma activity, leaving just a single ‘hotspot’ of gamma waves which marks the chosen option.”（在这个比较阶段之后，大脑切换到慢波活动(12到30赫兹)。这就消除了大部分的伽马活动，只留下一个伽马波的“热点”，它标志着被选中的选项。）在大脑经过快速伽马波对信息的处理后，会进入到慢伽马波活动，这时会留下一个“热点”，这就是人们所做好的决定。由此判断，大脑在做决定之前是会通过高速伽马波活动处理很多信息的，然后在慢速伽马波活动中作最终的决定。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段第二句提到“Doing something that is physically or mentally stimulating before making a decision will help your brain produce the initial gamma waves that generate awareness of the competing options. ”（在做决定之前做一些刺激身体或精神的事情会帮助你的大脑产生最初的伽马波，从而产生对抉择的意识。）前文提到“高速伽马波”会处理作决定之前的相关信息，而做决定之前刺激身体和精神可以产生最初产生的伽马波，即高速伽马波，这样可以加强大脑对相关信息的关注。故选C。

Tricks To Becoming A Patient Person
Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common There is one answer. ___16___.
In the Digital Age, we’re used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips. However, research suggests that if we practiced patience, we’d be a whole lot better off. Here are several tricks.
●Practice gratitude (感激)
Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic. ___17___. “Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California.
● Make yourself wait
Instant gratification (满足) may seem like the most “feel good” option at the time, but psychology research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. ___18___. Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You’ll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations.
● ___19___.
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “___20___.” You’ll then gradually become more patient.
A. Find your causes
B. Start with small tasks
C. Accept the uncomfortable
D. All this adds up to a state of hurry
E. It can also help us practice more patience
F. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G. They’re all situations where we could use a little extra patience
【答案】16. G 17. E 18. B 19. C 20. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了变得耐心的一些方法。
【16题详解】

A
The year 2023 witnessed the occurrence of significant cultural events, with culture and tourism becoming even more closely connected. Let’s review the major cultural events of 2023 as we bid farewell to the year and embrace the new year of 2024!
Museum visits rise in popularity in summer
Tourists were seen queuing for long hours in front of museums and obtaining entrance tickets became more challenging. In response to the growing demand, 46 museums in Beijing canceled their customary Monday closures and remained open daily until August 31. The rise in “museum fever” can be credited to various factors, including the public’s increasing enthusiasm for traditional Chinese culture, the booming market for youth educational tours and summer camps, as well as the continuous innovation of museums.
Old tea forests in Pu’er win World Heritage Site title
The newly named heritage site, located in Lancang Lahu autonomous county in Pu’er, Yunnan province, consists of five large-scale, well-preserved old tea forests, which stand 1,250 to 1,500 meters above the sea level, three protective barrier forests, and nine ancient villages in the old tea forests, which are mainly inhabited by Blang and Dai ethnic groups. The cultural landscape was jointly created by the ancestors of the Blang people—who immigrated to the Jingmai Mountain in the 10th century AD and later discovered and domesticated wild tea trees—and the native Dai people.
Protection plan released for Beijing’s Central Axis
The plan is said to be one of the necessary steps toward bidding for UNESCO World Heritage status. Alongside regulations on the protection of the Central Axis carried out earlier, the plan is in line with the requirements of World Heritage conservation. The 21 member countries of the World Heritage Committee will decide on whether Beijing’s Central Axis can be added to the World Heritage List at the committee’s 46th annual conference in 2024. If the application succeeds, it will reinforce Beijing’s top position among cities worldwide by number of World Heritage Sites.
1. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the rise in “museum fever”
A. Museums’ ceaseless innovation.
B. The constant innovation of summer camps.
C. The growing market for youth educational tours.
D. People’s growing passion for traditional Chinese culture.
2. Which of the following statements is TRUE concerning the cultural events
A. 46 museums in Beijing stayed open all year round.
B. The Blang people are the natives in Jingmai Mountain.
C. The heritage site in Pu’er consists of four large old tea forests.
D. Beijing’s Central Axis hasn’t been added to the World Heritage List yet.
3. In which magazine would a reader most likely find this text
A. Wonders of the Natural World B. Scientific Exploration
C. Chinese Culture Research D. Art and Architecture
B
When Stanford University student Ellen Xu was a five-year-old in California, she vividly recalls her parents rushing her little sister to the hospital. Three-year-old Kate had fallen acutely ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, a rash and some swelling in her hands and tongue.
At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had influenza, but when her condition didn’t improve, the Xus returned to the emergency room, where a doctor by chance had prior experience with an acute inflammatory (炎症性的) reaction in the blood vessels known as Kawasaki disease. Though rare, it’s the leading cause of acquired heart disease in babies and young children, and its cause and triggers remain somewhat mysterious. The doctor knew how to treat it: He ordered a dose of intravenous immunoglobulin, and eventually Kate shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart.
Xu remembers being curious about her sister’s dramatic condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn’t answer her questions about why it was so hard to detect. “In my mind, it was this mystery, she says. ”It was a puzzle I wanted to solve. “
A decade later, wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea: ”What if we had a doctor in our pocket “ So she created just that: Using AT, Xu designed an algorithm(算法) that uses visual data to diagnose (诊断) Kawasaki disease based on five physical symptoms.
The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you’ve taken on your cellphone. Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the image for symptoms of Kawasaki disease, which often have a strong visual element, such as a rash or a swollen tongue.
Xu’s invention has been applied as a web app on the Kawasaki Disease Foundation’s website without charge. ”The technology could also be developed for recognizing auto-immune and rheumatological (风湿病学的) diseases, “ she says. ”It means a lot to me. I want to use Al to help people live happier and healthier lives. “
4. Why was Kawasaki disease so hard to diagnose
A. It had no symptoms.
B. It had never been known before.
C. It could be confused with influenza.
D. It couldn’t be diagnosed by medical instruments.
5. What’s the function of the first three paragraphs
A. To describe the bad results of the disease.
B. To introduce a case remaining mysterious.
C. To show why Xu developed the technology.
D. To prove doctors should accumulate clinical experience.
6. What’s the advantage of Xu’s invention
A. It is convenient and cheap.
B. It can take the place of doctors.
C. It can treat Kawasaki disease quickly.
D. It can diagnose Kawasaki disease via scanned pictures.
7 What can be learned from the text
A. The technology is an AI-powered diagnosed tool.
B Xu had the idea of the technology when Kate was treated.
C. The technology can’t be applied to diagnose other diseases.
D. Influenza is the leading reason of acquired heart disease in babies.
C
Recently it has dawned on the government that closing more than 1,000 of England’s railway station ticket offices would not be very smart politics.The transport secretary, Mark Harper,announced that train operators had been asked to withdraw the cost-cutting strategy, which the government itself had originally pushed on them.The writing was already on the wall in the summer,when public anger led to an extension of the consultation period on the proposed closures.By the time it ended,750,000 responses had been recorded,99%of them negative.
The public’s concerns were over future access to travel advice and information,assistance for disabled people,safety at understaffed stations,and consequences for the digitally excluded. But the passionate opposition also underlined a widespread sense that railway stations must be more than transit(交通)bined with a reformed ticketing system,that insight should now inform a positive approach to breathing life into England’s railways and attracting more people back on to trains.
As a report published this autumn by the Campaign for Better Transport sets out,there is an urgent case for fairer ticketing reform across the network.For over a decade,the relative cost of taking the train rather than the car has skyrocketed,as fares have risen while fuel duty has been frozen.Over a third of the public are confused by the numerous types of ticket available,and the complex regulations that apply to them.Why should an anytime return from Chelmsford to London cost &32.60,when to cover the same distance from Grays to London costs E 13.40
The failed attempt to shut down ticket offices had its roots in a short-term ministerial response to falling revenues(收入).But as the country strives to achieve a challenging green transition,the government should work to establish a simpler,fairer ticketing system that offers imaginative rewards to take the train;and to develop an ambitious plan for our stations —one that reflects their important role in the lives of the travelling public.
8. What does the underlined words in the first paragraph probably mean
A. The public expressed their anger.
B. The proposal was put up on a wall.
C. Unfavorable outcome was expected.
D. The government adopted the policy.
9. What can be inferred about England’s railways
A. They have expanded their services.
B. They have undergone ticketing reform.
C. They have included more transit zones.
D. They have seen a decline in public favor.
10. What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on
A. The popularity of car ownership.
B. The development of ticketing reform.
C. The problems of the ticketing system.
D. The application of complex regulations.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Rising Prices of Train Travel
B. Urgent Calls for Rail Revival
C. Failed Closure of Railway Stations
D. Tough Route to Green Transit Initiatives
D
Every decision we make is arrived at through hugely complex neurological processing. Although it feels as though you have a choice, the action that you ‘decide’ to take is entirely directed by automatic neural activity. Brain imaging studies show that a person’s action can be predicted by their brain activity up to 10 seconds before they themselves become aware they are going to act. Multiple neuroscientific studies show that even those important decisions that feel worked out are just as automatic as knee-jerk reactions (膝跳反应) (although more complex).
Decision-making starts with the amygdala: a set of two almond-shaped nuclei (杏仁状核) buried deep within the brain, which generate emotion. The amygdala registers the information streaming in through our senses and responds to it in less than a second, sending signals throughout the brain. These produce an urge to run, fight, freeze or grab, according to how the amygdala values various stimuli.
Before we act on the amygdala’s signals, however, the information is usually processed by other brain areas, including some that produce conscious thoughts and emotions. Areas concerned with recognition work out what’s going on, those concerned with memory compare it with previous experiences, and those concerned with reasoning, judging and planning get to work on constructing various action plans. The best plan—if we are lucky—is then selected and carried out. If any of this process goes wrong, we are likely to hesitate, or do something silly.
The various stages of decision-making are marked by different types of brain activity. Fast (gamma)waves, with frequencies of 25 to 100 Hz, produce a keen awareness of the multiple factors that need to be taken into account to arrive at a decision. If you are trying to choose a sandwich, for instance, gamma waves generated in various cells within the ‘taste’ area of the brain bring to mind and compare the taste of ham, hummus, wholemeal, sourdough, and so on. Although it may seem useful to be aware of the full range of choice, too much information makes decision-making more difficult, so irrelevant factors get dismissed quickly and unconsciously.
After this comparison stage, the brain switches to slow-wave activity (12 to 30 Hz). This extinguishes most of the gamma activity, leaving just a single ‘hotspot’ of gamma waves which marks the chosen option.
Although there is no ‘you’ outside your brain to direct what it’s doing, you can help it to make good decisions by placing yourself in a situation which is likely to make the process run more smoothly. Doing something that is physically or mentally stimulating before making a decision will help your brain produce the initial gamma waves that generate awareness of the competing options. Getting over-excited, on the other hand, will prevent the switch to the slow brainwaves, making it much harder to single out a choice.
12. Why does the writer mention “knee-jerk reactions” in the first paragraph
A. To introduce the finding of the latest brain imaging studies.
B. To illustrate that decisions are not consciously thought out.
C. To call attention to a kind of neural reaction that is not very complex.
D. To show the difference between decision-making and other brain activity.
13. What does the amygdala do according to the passage
A. It works out conscious thoughts and emotions.
B. It selects the best action plan for a given situation.
C. It dismisses factors that are irrelevant to the decision to be made.
D. It processes sensory information and generates emotional responses.
14. What can be concluded from paragraphs 4 and 5
A. Slow-wave activity usually lasts longer than fast-wave activity.
B. The brain prioritizes information before settling on a final choice.
C. Decision-making is difficult when slow-wave activity occurs first.
D. The brain needs as much information as possible to make a decision.
15. How does engaging in stimulating activities help the decision-making process
A. By preparing the brain to single out the most reasonable choice.
B. By helping the brain switch to slow-wave activity more quickly.
C. By getting the brain to focus on those most relevant alternatives.
D. By making the brain more aware of the factors and choices involved.
