A dinosaur footprint found by a four-year-old girl on a Welsh beach has been regarded as the “finest find in a decade” by experts.
Lily Wilder was walking her dog with her family at Bendricks Beach in Barry when she spotted the fossilized (石化的) footprint in the rocks. Her mother said that after making the find, she uploaded a picture to Facebook and was shocked to receive a “huge response” from fossil hunters. Mrs. Wilder then contacted National Museum Wales, who advised her to take down the post to avoid a wild rush of fossil fans towards the protected section of land.
The 110-mm footprint fossil has now been legally detached, after permission was given by the landowners and Natural Resources Wales, and is currently in safekeeping. The footprint fossil, believed to be around 220 million years old, will be taken to National Museum Wales, on a temporary or permanent basis.
Cindy Howells, who arranged for the legal removal of the footprint, said: “This is an amazing discovery. It’s the best-preserved footprint fossil that’s ever been found in South Wales-normally they’re hollow (中空的) or less well-defined, but on this one you can see the claws (爪子) and the points at the end. This discovery is unique and worth protecting — we will be studying the footprint and it will teach us a lot more about dinosaur feet and their bone and muscle structure.”
The footprint is believed to be that of a meat-eating dinosaur from the early days when dinosaurs were first starting to evolve (进化), around 10 million years after dinosaurs first emerged on Earth.
Lily, who now plans to get more dinosaur toys, will forever be named as the footprint fossil’s finder and will be invited into the museum once it reopens.
4.Why was Mrs. Wilder advised to take down her post
A.To avoid misleading fossil hunters. B.To block out negative responses online.
C.To keep her daughter from being exposed. D.To protect the footprint from fossil fans.
5.What does the underlined word “detached” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Named. B.Purchased. C.Removed. D.Recognized.
6.What can we learn from Cindy’s words about the footprint
A.It is complete and clear. B.It will end up in a museum.
C.It is around 110 million years old. D.It belongs to a grass-eating dinosaur.
7.What can be the best title for the text
A.The significance of dinosaur footprints B.The finest find in the fossil world
C.Little girl’s love for dinosaurs D.Little girl’s big discovery
C
From the world’s last seven to a global population of more than 5,000, China spent nearly 40 years bringing back crested ibises (朱鹮) from the edge of extinction.
With its typical red crest and face, as well as a long black mouth and snow-white feathers, the crested ibis is known as the “Oriental Gem” in China. They were once widespread in East Asia and Siberia until the 20th century when hunting, ecological damage, and increased human activities drove the birds to near extinction.
In 1981, the entire species around the world was down to the seven crested ibises which were found only in Yangxian County, northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, and deep in the Qinling Mountains, making Qinling, a natural boundary between China’s north and south, the “Noah’s Ark (诺亚方舟) ” of the wild bird.
Since 1981, the local government of Yangxian County has put forward four bans for the protection of the species, prohibiting activities including hunting in the birds' living areas, cutting down trees where they nest, using chemicals in their food-finding areas, and firing guns in their breeding (繁殖) areas. The Chinese government arranged special funds to protect the habitat of crested ibises, sealing off mountains to plant trees in the birds’ living areas. China started the artificial breeding of crested ibises in 1991 and has bred more than 400 birds in Shaanxi.
Years of constant effort have brought promising results. It is estimated that there are more than 5,000 crested ibises in the world now, and about half of them live in Shaanxi. The bird’s habitat in China has risen from less than five square kilometres in 1981 to the current 15,000 km .
“It is lucky that the crested ibis, an ancient bird, is still flying around,” said Zan Linsen, head of the Shaanxi Academy of Forestry. “The conservation story of crested ibises not only shows us the power of ancient life but also the necessity and urgency of ecological environment protection.”
8.Why are the Qinling Mountains so important for crested ibises
A.They used to be the last habitat of crested ibises.
B.They are where crested ibises were first found.
C.They protect crested ibises from natural enemies.
D.They are the only breeding area of crested ibises.
9.What can we conclude from the fourth paragraph
A.It's legal to own hunting guns in Yangxian County.
B.Crested ibises are unlikely to be bred artificially.
C.The government plays a key role in saving crested ibises.
D.Hunting has been the biggest threat to crested ibises.
10.How does Zan Linsen feel about the conservation of crested ibises
A.Proud and ambitious. B.Relieved and happy.
C.Sorry and regretful. D.Shocked and curious.
11.Which could be a suitable title for the text
A.Artificial Breeding of Crested Ibises in China
B.Rare Animals in China: Crested Ibises
C.Crested Ibises Found Again in the Qinling Mountains
D.Endangered Crested Ibises Making a Comeback
D
Scholars have long debated how and when the Renaissance began. One thing, however, that most scholars agree upon is the significance of this historical period as an evolutionary movement toward individualism in art and thought. Although there is no historical agreement on the exact time order of events leading to the Renaissance, many historians agree that visionaries of the fifteenth century had a sense of belonging to a movement far greater than themselves and so far-reaching as to supersede the artistic and literary forms of the classical era. This phenomenon produced the Renaissance, a period when art, literature, language, and philosophy found new and extraordinary interpretations in the hands of the Humanists. Humanists believed in the importance of the humanities or “human letters”. Eventually, intellectuals of this period became aware of man’s inner potential.
The fourteenth century Italian poet Petrarch characterized the early stage of this movement as the New Age. In fact, it was his term, “Rinascita”, which comes from the Latin “renasci”, to be reborn, that eventually led to the term Renaissance that we use today.
Petrarch believed that the end of classical antiquity and the beginning of a thousand years of darkness, which he characterized as “the Dark Ages”, came with the destruction of the Roman Empire by invasions in 476 A.D.The awakening from this period was a time of rebirth, which he distinguished as the New Age. Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita to the comeback of Latin and Greek classics from antiquity based on translations of ancient text. Most significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) of antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit of arts and literature in an effort to reach the highest potential of perfection on earth. This belief led to a new sense of individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age of the Renaissance as one that was against the old beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a function of the social order. From the fourteenth century through the early seventeenth century, this new individualism grew steadily in Western European culture with a motivation fed by man’s desire to define and evaluate the essential values between men of antiquity and the emerging modern man.
Not only did artists and writers turn to classical culture for inspiration, they set new goals. They explored the relationship between ancient cultures and their own cultures, and by doing so, they discovered a new vision of human life, of man as a glorious creature capable of developing his mind and body to reach his fullest potential toward perfection.
12.The word “supersede” (in paragraph 1) most probably means ________.
A.keep pace with B.make full use of
C.give rise to D.take the place of
13.Which of the following shows the correct time order (from far to near) of the three periods
A.the Dark Ages, the Renaissance, the Roman Empire
B.the Renaissance, the Roman Empire, the Dark Ages
C.the Roman Empire, the Dark Ages, the Renaissance
D.the Dark Ages, the Roman Empire, the Renaissance
14.Why is Petrarch mentioned in the passage
A.He coined the term “Renaissance”, which has been in use for over 700 years.
B.His belief in personal perfection was the fundamental idea of the Renaissance.
C.His prediction of the comeback of Latin and Greek classics inspired many artists.
D.He translated ancient texts to Latin and Greek, leading to the start of the Renaissance.
15.What can be concluded about artists and writers during period of the Renaissance
A.They failed to realize their own fullest potential.
B.They developed their own cultures from ancient ones.
C.They went beyond the classics with a new individualism.
D.They did nothing more than recapture the glory of the ancients.

Maybe many people hate to use passwords. Nowadays, there is good news for them. Google has added a different way to log in to its services. 16
Passkeys represent a safer alternative to passwords and texted confirmation codes. Users will not ever see the passkeys directly. Instead, an online service like Gmail will use them to communicate directly with a trusted device such as your phone or computer to log you in. 17 . This confirmation can take several forms, like a PIN unlock code, a fingerprint or face scan.
Thanks to smart hackers and human weakness, passwords are just too easy to steal or defeat. And making them more complex just opens the door to users defeating themselves. 18 . Apart from overcoming these problems, passkeys have one extra advantage over passwords. Passkeys are specific to websites, so hackers cannot steal a passkey from one website.
19 . First, enable them for your Google account. Then visit the page g.co/passkeys and select the choice to “start using passkeys.” The passkey feature is now activated for that account. Next, create the actual passkeys that will connect your trusted device. Tap that and you are on your way.
From that point on, signing into Google will only require you to enter your email address. 20 , you will simply get a message on your phone or other device asking you for your fingerprint, your face or a PIN. Of course, your password is still there. But if passkeys take off, the odds are that you’ll not need it very much. You may even choose to delete it from your account someday.
A.When you are using an Android phone
B.The steps to using passkeys are as follows
C.If you have gotten passkeys set up correctly
D.This new feature employs the use of passkeys
E.You can scan with the cameras on Android devices
F.In short, passwords put security and ease of use at odds
G.All a person has to do is confirm their identity on the device

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 world was in a constant state of change and I was having trouble keeping up. Life with Mom, Dad, and my sister, Linda, had always been comfortable and fairly predictable. My grades were good, and Linda and I got on well. We played together and fought together, the way sisters do. As the older one, I was used to being told to set an example, which wasn’t too difficult, since Linda was only two years younger, and she usually wanted to do anything I did, anyway. Life was pretty good.
Then the changes started coming.
First came a family meeting with surprising news that would change my world. We were moving. Our new home would be across the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, in another borough of New York City. We were leaving the only home I had ever known. Even worse, it would occur right before the beginning of sixth grade. Not only would I not be able to graduate from elementary school with my friends, but I would have to start middle school with a class full of kids who had known each other, and bonded, since kindergarten. Where would that leave me
I spent the summer adjusting to a new neighborhood, literally being the new kid on the block. Making friends didn’t come easily to me, and it didn’t help being the eldest child of immigrant parents. I was different, and being different is the last thing any middle school student wants. The fear of starting a new school hung over me like a black cloud, damaging each summer day.
The first day of school arrived too quickly. I entered my new classroom trying very hard not to appear as scared as I felt, but it wasn’t easy. Twenty-eight faces turned to look up at me as I followed the Assistant Principal into the room. They all looked so cool, and some of the girls even wore make-up. How would I ever fit in I was out of touch in every way possible. I wasn’t allowed to wear make-up or nail polish. Most of my clothes were handmade, sewn by my mother and grandmother.

6.细节理解题。根据第四段中“It’s the best-preserved footprint fossil that’s ever been found in South Wales-normally they’re hollow (中空的) or less well-defined, but on this one you can see the claws (爪子) and the points at the end.(这是在南威尔士发现的保存最完好的脚印化石——通常它们是中空的,或者没有那么清晰,但在这个脚印上,你可以看到爪子和末端的尖)”可知,这个脚印化石完整且清晰,故选A。
7.主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第一段“A dinosaur footprint found by a four-year-old girl on a Welsh beach has been regarded as the ‘finest find in a decade’ by experts.(一名四岁女孩在威尔士海滩上发现的恐龙脚印被专家认为是‘十年来最好的发现’)”可知,文章主要讲述一名四岁女孩在威尔士海滩上发现了恐龙脚印,这是在南威尔士发现的保存最完好的脚印化石,能够让人们了解更多关于恐龙脚及其骨骼和肌肉结构的知识。D项“小女孩的大发现”为最佳标题,故选D。

(1981年,世界上的朱鹮只剩下7只,这些朱鹮只在中国西北陕西省阳县和秦岭山脉深处发现,使秦岭这个中国南北自然边界成为野鸟的“诺亚方舟”。)”可知,1981年,世界上的最后7 只朱鹮在秦岭地区被发现,这一地区是朱鹮的“诺亚方舟”,即最后的栖息地。故选A。
9.推理判断题。根据第四段“Since 1981, the local government of Yangxian County has put forward four bans for the protection of the species, prohibiting activities including hunting in the birds' living areas, cutting down trees where they nest, using chemicals in their food-finding areas, and firing guns in their breeding (繁殖) areas. The Chinese government arranged special funds to protect the habitat of crested ibises, sealing off mountains to plant trees in the birds’ living areas. China started the artificial breeding of crested ibises in 1991 and has bred more than 400 birds in Shaanxi. (自1981年以来,阳县当地政府提出了四项保护物种的禁令,禁止在鸟类的生活区狩猎,砍伐它们筑巢的树木,在它们寻找食物的区域使用化学品,以及在它们的繁殖区域开枪。中国政府安排了专项资金来保护朱鹮的栖息地,在朱鹮的栖息地封山植树。中国于1991年开始人工繁殖朱鹮,目前已在陕西繁殖了400多只朱鹮。)”可知,中央政府和地方政府出台了一系列保护措施, 这对挽救濒临灭绝的朱鹮起到了至关重要的作用。故选C。
10.推理判断题。根据最后一段““It is lucky that the crested ibis, an ancient bird, is still flying around,” said Zan Linsen, head of the Shaanxi Academy of Forestry. “The conservation story of crested ibises not only shows us the power of ancient life but also the necessity and urgency of ecological environment protection.” (陕西林业科学研究院院长昝林森说:“很幸运,朱鹮这种古老的鸟类现在还在飞来飞去。”“朱鹮的保护故事不仅向我们展示了古代生命的力量,也向我们展示了生态环境保护的必要性和紧迫性。”)”可知,他对朱鹮保护事业的成功感到欣慰和高兴。故选B。
11.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据文章第一段中“From the world’s last seven to a global population of more than 5,000, China spent nearly 40 years bringing back crested ibises (朱鹮) from the edge of extinction. (从世界上最后的7只到全球5000多只,中国花了近40年的时间把朱鹮从灭绝的边缘救了回来。)”可知,本文主要讲述了濒危鸟类朱鹮在中国成功实现种群恢复的故事。故D项“Endangered Crested Ibises Making a Comeback (濒临灭绝的朱鹮卷土重来)”符合题意。故选D。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了文艺复兴时代的特点和意义,以及该时期的知识分子思想的觉醒。
12.词句猜测题。根据该单词下一句“This phenomenon produced the Renaissance, a period when art, literature, language, and philosophy found new and extraordinary interpretations in the hands of the Humanists.(这一现象产生了文艺复兴时期,在这个时期,艺术、文学、语言和哲学在人文主义者的手中找到了新的、非凡的解释)”可知,这场运动的影响非常深远,艺术、文学、语言和哲学都有了全新的解释。由此判断,这场运动取代了之前古典时期的艺术和文学形式。选项A“keep pace with (和……一致)”;选项B“make full use of (充分利用)”;选项C“give rise to (导致)”;选项D“take the place of (取代)”。故选D。
13.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Petrarch believed that the end of classical antiquity and the beginning of a thousand years of darkness, which he characterized as “the Dark Ages”, came with the destruction of the Roman Empire by invasions in 476 A.D. The awakening from this period was a time of rebirth, which he distinguished as the New Age. Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita to the comeback of Latin and Greek classics from antiquity based on translations of ancient text. Most significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) of antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit of arts and literature in an effort to reach the highest potential of perfection on earth. This belief led to a new sense of individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age of the Renaissance as one that was against the old beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a function of the social order. (Petrarch认为,随着公元476年罗马帝国被入侵摧毁,古典古代的终结和千年黑暗的开始(他称之为“黑暗时代”)随之而来。从这一时期开始的觉醒是一个重生的时期,他将其称为新时代。Petrarch的观点将“复兴”限制在以古代文本翻译为基础的拉丁语和希腊语经典的回归上。最重要的是他相信古代的异教徒受到了对艺术和文学的追求的启发,努力达到地球上完美的最高潜力。这种信念导致了一种新的个人主义和启蒙思想,这是文艺复兴时代的特征,它与认为人类的世俗生活只是社会秩序的一个功能的旧信仰相抵触)”可知,罗马帝国后为黑暗时代,然后为文艺复兴时代。故选C。
14.推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The fourteenth century Italian poet Petrarch characterized the early stage of this movement as the New Age. In fact, it was his term, “Rinascita”, which comes from the Latin “renasci”, to be reborn, that eventually led to the term Renaissance that we use today.(14世纪意大利诗人Petrarch将这一运动的早期阶段称为“新时代”。事实上,正是他的术语“Rinascita”,来自拉丁语“renasci”,意思是重生,最终导致了我们今天使用的“文艺复兴”一词)”以及第三段“Petrarch’s view limited the Rinascita to the comeback of Latin and Greek classics from antiquity based on translations of ancient text. Most significant was his belief that the pagans (异教徒) of antiquity were much inspired by the pursuit of arts and literature in an effort to reach the highest potential of perfection on earth. This belief led to a new sense of individualism and enlightenment that characterized the age of the Renaissance as one that was against the old beliefs that man’s earthly life was merely a function of the social order.(Petrarch的观点将“复兴”限制在以古代文本翻译为基础的拉丁语和希腊语经典的回归上。最重要的是他相信古代的异教徒受到了对艺术和文学的追求的启发,努力达到地球上完美的最高潜力。这种信念导致了一种新的个人主义和启蒙思想,这是文艺复兴时代的特征,它与认为人类的世俗生活只是社会秩序的一个功能的旧信仰相抵触)”可推知,文章之所以提到Petrarch是因为Petrarch的观点导致了一种新的个人主义和启蒙思想,而这正是文艺复兴时代的特征,它与认为人类的世俗生活只是社会秩序的一个功能的旧信仰相抵触。故选B。
15.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Not only did artists and writers turn to classical culture for inspiration, they set new goals. They explored the relationship between ancient cultures and their own cultures, and by doing so, they discovered a new vision of human life, of man as a glorious creature capable of developing his mind and body to reach his fullest potential toward perfection.(艺术家和作家不仅从古典文化中寻找灵感,而且还设定了新的目标。他们探索了古代文化和他们自己的文化之间的关系,通过这样做,他们发现了人类生活的新愿景,即人类是一种璀璨的生物,能够发展他的思想和身体,以充分发挥他的潜力,走向完美)”可推知,文艺复兴时代的艺术家们和作家们从古典文化中寻求灵感,同时又超越了古典并最终成就了完美的自我。故选C。

16.根据上文的“Google has added a different way to log in to its services.(谷歌增加了一种登录其服务的不同方式。)”和第二段的“Passkeys represent a safer alternative to passwords and texted confirmation codes.(比起密码和短信确认码,密钥是一种更安全的选择。)”可知,除了用密码登陆,谷歌新增了密钥登陆的登陆方法;D选项“This new feature employs the use of passkeys(这个新功能使用了密钥)”指出新增加的功能使用了密钥,符合语境。故选D。
17.下文“This confirmation can take several forms, like a PIN unlock code, a fingerprint or face scan.(这种确认可以采取几种形式,比如PIN解锁码、指纹或面部扫描。)”列举了确认的几种形式;由此可知,空格处的内容应与“用户通过密钥确认自己的身份”有关;G选项“All a person has to do is confirm their identity on the device(人们只须在设备上确认自己的身份)”指出人们只须在设备上确认自己的身份,符合语境。故选G。
18.根据上文“Thanks to smart hackers and human weakness, passwords are just too easy to steal or defeat. And making them more complex just opens the door to users defeating themselves. (由于聪明的黑客和人类的弱点,密码太容易被窃取或破解。让它们变得更复杂只会让用户打败自己。)”以及下文“Apart from overcoming these problems, passkeys have one extra advantage over passwords.(除了克服这些问题外,密钥还有一个比密码更大的优势。) ”可知,空格处承接上文,阐述密码的缺点;F选项“In short, passwords put security and ease of use at odds(简而言之,密码使安全性和易用性不一致)”用一句话,总结上文提到的密码存在的问题,指出密码无法同时达到既安全又使用方便,符合语境。故选F。
19.设空处位于句首;下文“First, enable them for your Google account. Then visit the page g.co/passkeys and select the choice to “start using passkeys.” The passkey feature is now activated for that account. Next, create the actual passkeys that will connect your trusted device. Tap that and you are on your way.(首先,为你的Google帐户启用它们。然后访问页面g.co/passkeys并选择“开始使用passkeys”。该帐户的密钥功能现在已激活。接下来,创建将连接您的可信设备的实际密钥。接下来,创建连接受信任设备的实际密钥。点击它,你就可以上路了。)”介绍了使用密钥的详细步骤;B选项“The steps to using passkeys are as follows(密钥的使用步骤如下)”引领本段内容,符合语境。故选B。
20.根据上文的“From that point on, signing into Google will only require you to enter your email address.(从那时起,登录谷歌只需要输入你的电子邮件地址。)”以及下文“you will simply get a message on your phone or other device asking you for your fingerprint, your face or a PIN.(你只会在手机或其他设备上收到一条信息,要求你输入指纹、人脸或密码。)”可知,空格处的内容应与“密钥设置”有关并且须与下文存在逻辑关系;C选项“If you have gotten passkeys set up correctly(如果你的密钥设置正确)”为条件状语从句,如果你的密钥设置正确,就会出现下文所说的“在手机或其他设备上收到一条信息,要求你输入指纹、人脸或密码”;由此可知,C选项符合语境。故选C。

46.Dear classmates,
I’m writing to persuade you to take part in morning jogging after arriving at school every day. Recently I noticed many students are under huge pressure of study, lack of exercise and thus sleepy in class. Morning jogging can bring us a lot of benefit.
Regular exercise will do good to health. Morning jogging can help lessen stress and at the same time, equip us with firm will to overcome difficulties. Finally, if a day begins with exercise, we can keep a positive state of mind and remain in high spirits all day.
I would appreciate it if you could consider my suggestions.
