At its best, a family picnic is a mini-vacation: a chance to leave the day-to-day routine behind and spend some time together out under the open sky. These best picnic spots offer a range of experiences.
Poo Poo Point, Issaquah
For kids and adults who have the energy to take on a 2-mile hike uphill, this amusingly named destination in the Issaquah Alps offers huge rewards. After reaching the Chirico Trail, you come to a broad, clear area, with a sweeping view of Lake Sammamish, Issaquah and Bellevue. As for where to set up a picnic camp, there are two picnic tables.
Dr. Jose Rizal Park, Seattle
Located on the northwest corner of Beacon Hill, this park has a sweeping view overlooking Elliott Bay and downtown Seattle. It’s named after Jose Rizal, a brilliant writer, a scientist and a hero in the Philippines struggle for independence. The fantastic Seattle picnic spot also has an area for dogs and walking trails.
Mount Baker Park, Seattle
This lakefront park is one of Seattle Parks’ swimming beaches. It’s open this summer, with lifeguards on duty. The most popular place to picnic is probably near the swimming area, but there are many lovely shady spots in the inland part of the park. The updated playground will attract kids. For biking families, pack your wheels and enjoy a ride along Lake Washington Boulevard.
Richmond Beach Saltwater Park, Seattle
Cross a narrow bridge over the railroad tracks at Saltwater Park in Shoreline and you’re in a world of sun, sea and sand dunes. This is one of Puget Sound’s windy places, so you’ll often spot kiteboarders(风筝冲浪者) playing in the waves nearby. Even on a hot day, you’re likely to find a breeze to keep you cool at this picnic spot in Seattle.
21. Where should you go if you want to go hiking

Jack Prelutsky is an American poet. He is known for his humorous and fantastic poetry for children, which has earned him numerous awards.
Jack Prelutsky was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1940. As a child, he did not enjoy poetry, finding it boring and pointless. Instead, Prelutsky expressed his artistry through music, taking voice and piano lessons. While Prelutsky claims he got into poetry almost by accident, he also states that he was always a poet. It just took him some time to realize his love for poetry.
Prelutsky explored quite a few options before he found his niche in poetry. He was a folk singer and guitar teacher in Greenwich Village in his late teens and early twenties. Prelutsky also held a variety of odd jobs. He worked as a furniture mover, piano mover, taxicab driver, coal shoveler, fruit picker, truck driver and photographer, among other jobs.
At the age of 23, Prelutsky decided to try illustrating. Just before presenting his illustrations to a children’s book editor, he added a few lines of poetry to the pictures. The editor told him that the illustrations were not publishable but the poems showed the talent. Over the next months and years, Prelutsky worked with the editor to create a collection of animal poems inspired by his love of the Bronx Zoo. His first book, entitled A Gopher in the Garden and Other Animal Poems, was published in 1967.
In addition to writing, Prelutsky has edited various poetry collections and translated poetry from German and Swedish into English. He currently resides in Seattle, where he writes and performs his work. Prelutsky is considered one of the most popular children’s poets. His work pioneered a new era of children’s poetry. In 2006, the Poetry Foundation named Jack Prelutsky the first Children’s Poet Laureate, a position designed to promote poetry for children and raise awareness of the power and relevance of poetry for young people.
24. Why did Prelutsky dislike poetry in his early years
A. It was too difficult. B. He wasn’t good at it.
C. He thought it meaningless. D. It took up too much of his time.
25. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “niche” in paragraph 3
A. Mistake. B. Dream. C. Comprehension. D. Interest.
26. How old was Prelutsky when he published his first book
A.23. B.27. C.40. D.66.
27. What is the purpose of the text
A. To introduce a poet. B. To attract poetry lovers.
C. To display some excellent poems. D. To encourage readers to write poems.
C
A recent research suggests that artificial intelligence(AI) could hold the potential for predicting sudden cardiac(心脏的) death and assessing an individual’s risk to potentially prevent future deaths. This development may mark a novel step towards prevention and global health strategies.
Professor Xavier Jouven, lead author of the study, said, “Sudden cardiac death, a public health burden, represents 10% to 20% of overall deaths. Predicting it is difficult, and the usual approaches fail to identify high-risk people, particularly at an individual level. We proposed a new approach.”
The scientific team employed AI to analyze medical data obtained from registries and databases in Paris, France and Seattle. They examined records of 25,000 individuals who had experienced sudden cardiac arrest and compared them with data from 70,000 people from the general population. The matching process involved age, sex and residential area. Using AI, the scientists created about 25,000 personalized health models to evaluate the data and identify individuals at high risk of sudden cardiac death. Additionally, they established a risk file for each participant in the study.
The AI analysis was able to identify people who had more than 90% of risk dying suddenly, and it can predict about more than one-fourth of all cases of sudden cardiac death. “We have been working for almost 30 years in the field of sudden cardiac death prediction. However, we did not expect to reach such a high level of accuracy,” said Jouven, who is the founder of the Paris Sudden Death Expertise Center.
Jouven added, “While doctors have efficient treatments, the use of AI is necessary to detect in a given subject a succession of medical information registered over the years. We hope that with a personalized list of risk factors, patients will be able to work with their clinicians to reduce those risk factors and ultimately decrease the potential for sudden cardiac death.”
28. What can be known about sudden cardiac death
A. It is hard to predict and prevent.
B. Researchers still can do nothing about it.
C. It accounts for the highest percentage of all deaths.
D. Old approaches can effectively identify its high-risk people.
29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning the research
A. Its result. B. Its process. C. Its purpose. D. Its participants.
30. How does Jouven feel about the AI analysis
A. Worried. B. Amazed. C. Annoyed. D. Disappointed.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. The Biggest AI Development in 2024 B. Using AI to Stop Future Cardiac Attack
C. Improved Prediction of Death in Patients D. Predicting Sudden Cardiac Death Using AI
D
In 1937, the aggression of the Japanese army brought disaster to China’s three great universities: Peking University and Tsinghua University were occupied by Japanese troops, while Nankai University was completely destroyed by bombing. To save their educational and intellectual heritage, the three universities joined together in Kunming as National Southwest Associated University, otherwise known as Lianda.
Professors and students alike in the three universities made an epic journey over a distance of more than 2,000 kilometres, most of them on foot. Their bed was the dusty road and their roof was the open sky, often lit up by exploding Japanese bombs. Conditions were little better once they reached the remote and mountainous south-west part of China.
However, despite the immense hardships and the daunting challenges, it was right in this place, over period of eight long years, that the nation’s intellectual heritage was not only guarded but fortified by the passion and belief of the worthy academic s of Lianda.
With the country at war, students at Lianda were not going to shirk their duty. Driven by a sense of commitment, a great many joined the army to resist the Japanese invaders and defend the honour of the nation. In fact, Lianda provided the largest number of student-soldiers from any campus in China. Of the thousands of college students from all over China who served as interpreters, one tenth were from Lianda, including the well-known translators Zha Liangzheng and Xu Yuanchong.
A product of the war, Lianda is now physically gone. But it has become the crowning glory of China’s modern universities, not only because of its prominent professors and talented students, but also because of the school’s strong spirit of perseverance and dedication.
More than eighty years on, the priceless contribution of Lianda still needs to be reaffirmed. It has become part of the collective memory of the Chinese nation, with its spirit as the blueprint for all universities in China in the modern era.
32. What caused Lianda to be formed in Kunming
A. Thinkers’ academic struggles. B. Immense challenges.
C. Japanese aggression. D. Educational heritage.
33. How did most students get to Kunming
A. On foot. B. By air. C. By bus. D. By bike.
34. What caused many students to join the army to defeat the invaders
A. A sense of personal loss. B. A sense of trust.
C. A sense of achievement. D. A sense of commitment.
35. What message does the text convey about Lianda University
A. Its campus remains a historical site.
B. This wartime system should now be re-established.
C. It becomes less and less important as time goes on.
D. Its spirit and contributions are key to China’s educational history.

The Adventurous Tour
It was a perfect hot summer day. The sky was as blue as the ocean with white soft clouds floating like cotton candy. Tom, Sam, Jack and Ron were very excited. They were best friends and were going sailing that day. Tom’s dad gave them a boat named Flying Ranger which they liked very much. Their mothers packed some delicious snacks and juice for their journey. They were like kids in a candy store and waited eagerly to set sail and begin their adventure.
They joyfully began their journey. Their boat was sailing swiftly in the wind. They saw big white birds flying overhead. Their cries echoed(回响) in the clear summer sky. The sea was calm, with small waves gently swaying. The boys joked and laughed as they controlled the boat, feeling the freedom of the open sea.
“Oh, no! Look at that large shark. It is coming towards us! Help!” Suddenly, Jack screamed. They couldn’t immediately grasp what was going on. By the time they tried to turn the boat in the other direction, it was too late. The shark bit their boat and it started sinking slowly. They jumped into the water and shivered like leaves. They shouted, “Help!” But there was no one around. Fortunately, the shark also left with the boat sinking.
Finally, they swam and reached the shore of an island. The island was vast with white sand and tall coconut trees standing like bodyguards. The boys were happily exploring the place. All of a sudden, an enormous black scorpion(蝎子) appeared. The boys were shocked and their mouths fell open. The scorpion was as huge as an elephant and looked like a big monster with its sharp nails. The big scorpion started advancing towards them. The boys were frightened and began to run for their lives. They ran as fast as deer and took shelter in an old cave.

M: I remember that when I was in my teens, I used to disobey many rules my parents told me. For example, my parents were very particular about the friends I went out with, always warning me that “one rotten apple could ruin a whole basket of apples.” When I wanted to sleep with my pet dog Peppy, they immediately said NO because they thought that I would be bitten by fleas. Today, however, I am also the father of a boy of fifteen, and I find that I, too, am pressuring my son with a lot of rules that he seems to find hard to follow. The other day, I noticed that my son’s hair was too long, so I told him to have it cut short. Ordinarily, he is fairly obedient, but this time he put his foot down. “What’s wrong with long hair ” he said. “I don’t think you have the right to order me to cut it short, even if you’re my father.” When I was a boy, if I had spoken like this to my father, I know that he would have given me a good beating. But I suddenly realized that we are now living in a more liberal world, and that my son’s wearing his hair long was merely an example of the generation gap that existed between us. So I give in, and so he still wears his hair long.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Martin,
I am Li Hua from the English Club. We are about to organize a welcome party, and I would like to share some suggestions regarding the decoration of the party, with a focus on environmental friendliness.
Firstly, when choosing decorations, we’d better choose some items that are either recyclable or biodegradable. Secondly, we can minimize the use of disposable plastic products by providing reusable tableware and cups. Finally, setting up garbage classification and recycling bins at the party site will enable everyone to dispose of waste correctly.
I hope my suggestions will be taken into account. I am looking forward to the party.
Best regards,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
The cave was dark and dusty, but the boys had no choice. When they went in, Sam shouted, “Wow! Get in here!” They opened their eyes wide and saw this incredible cave in front of them. There were simple furnishings, including pots and pans, and a simple bed made of dead branches. This could be a temporary shelter. The boys were happy, but they were also frustrated and depressed because they were lost on that island.
Meanwhile, the parents were anxiously looking for their children. Fortunately, accompanied by local police, they found the Flying Ranger. So they searched in all possible directions. After three days and night s of searching, they arrived on that isolated island. They saw their children struggling to build a fire for food. The children were overjoyed to see their parents approaching them. After the adventure, they were rescued and returned home.
