An underwater dance performance brought He Haohao into the spotlight. The show, titled Pray, features He as the Goddess of the Luohe River. It became popular after being played on Henan TV in June 2021. Thousands of Internet users were amazed at her graceful but highly demanding moves, such as flying in the water.
The 31-year-old started to learn synchronized (花样的) swimming at the age of eight and won a national championship. In 2013, she graduated from college and went to work a nine-to-five job in an office. But her true passion for the underwater sport pushed her out of her comfort zone. Three years later, she gave up the job and was qualified as a professional dance coach.
To let more people know about the underwater dance, she has been trying to film short videos of dances that feature Chinese traditional culture. One of her most impressive pieces of work is an underwater dance for a public service announcement about ocean protection in 2018.She created the dance in the sea.
“As a lover of traditional culture, it’s my own way to present it by combining it with the underwater dance,” He added. “You can do many impossible movements that can’t be accomplished on land, such as flying.” This makes the underwater dance more beautiful to watch.
When shooting Pray, she had to wear counterweights (平衡物) weighing from 2 to 10kilograms to stand still in the water. More dangerously, her neck was once wounded around by costumes that can float without control under the water.
Now, her next work that features swinging tai chi swords is to be released soon. The audience is expecting to see another fascinating performance under the water.

Do you love learning foreign languages I love it so much that I like to learn a new language every two years, now working on my eighth one. As a successful language learner, people always ask me, “How do you speak so many languages like a polyglot ” They wanted to know why they are spending years trying to learn even one language, never making it.
To be honest, I really don’t know why. I’m curious to know what makes me speak several languages faster than other people. I decided to meet other people like me and find that out. I met Benny from Ireland, who told me that his way is to start speaking from day one. He learns a few phrases from a travel phrasebook and goes to meet native speakers and starts talking with them right away. He doesn’t mind making even 200 mistakes a day, because that’s how he learns, based on the practice.
I met some people who always start by learning sounds of the language, and others who always learn the 500 most used words of the language. And yet others who always start by reading about the grammar. As I was listening to these people telling me about their ways, it suddenly hit me that we simply found ways to enjoy the language learning. All of them use different ways, but they always make sure it is something that they personally enjoy. I realized that this is actually how I learn languages myself.
We are not geniuses (天才) and we have no shortcut to learning languages. It is really important to know how to turn language learning from a boring school subject into a pleasant activity which you don’t mind doing every day. In that way, you will love learning a language like me.
28. Which of the following best explains “polyglot” underlined in paragraph 1

Have you ever heard of the Northward Family, a herd of Asian elephants that made their journey in Yunnan They were a bit naughty for they invaded villagers’ fields. Scientists who took part in scientific research and conservation have also used unmanned aerial vehicles (无人机) and other advanced means to carry out monitoring and early warning of the herd’s arrival. The government also made fences around villagers’ houses, which make effective protection of elephants from humans, making sure the safety of humans and elephants.
In addition, safety signs, warning signs and solar-powered street lights have been fixed along the roads where the herd may appear, to remind passers-by to be careful. The government has also set up a “canteen” for the elephants, providing them with food such as banana, corn and so on.
Is this amazing “migration” just a journey or a “survival revolution” in search of a new home A lot of friends who care about the Northward Family are wondering: Is elephants’ migration related to the destruction of their living environment Only time will tell.
What do humans think of the elephant’s journey On the one hand, it is no accident. We humans can help elephants by respecting their activities. It is within our power to respect science, follow the advice of experts, guide and urge our friends and children to keep their distance. If elephants really become our “neighbors”, how to deal with the “neighborly relations” will certainly become a problem we have to face.
On the other hand, the elephant’s journey has shown China’s achievements in protecting its natural environment and wildlife in recent decades. There is no doubt that the normal rotation of the earth cannot depend on the human species alone. The preservation of biodiversity is the “secret” of the earth’s ecological sustainability. When nature becomes something that animals and plants desire, humans will live a wonderful life too.

C. Their purpose was still unknown. D. Their living habitat was destroyed.
35. What can we learn from elephant’s journey
A. Keeping away from elephants is necessary.
B Protecting elephants is our impossible mission.
C. Dealing with elephant’s journey is beyond human’s ability.

67. 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。
It was a week before Christmas. Despite all the encouraging words I had given myself, I was having a really hard time staying positive. In a few days I would be facing the wedding anniversary (纪念日) on December 23rd. I had always looked forward to this time of year.
I was wandering about in the street, looking for a gift for my husband. The clock read 4: 00p. m. I still didn't find anything satisfying. I decided to head to a neighboring town to find the perfect gift for my dear Joey. I made it into town and stopped by a few local shops, festive with holiday music and bright Christmas light. Shoppers hurried from one place to another, eagerly picking out the perfect gift for their loved ones. I left empty-handed but not completely discouraged. I still had two more stops and I was determined to find something before I headed home.
I wondered that the local trading post would have a few good “gifts.” I headed that way and arrived at 6: 04 p. m. The sign on the locked gate showed I had missed it by four minutes. I took a deep breath. The thought of having to go out another day and do this all over again was unbearable. I shook my head. It wouldn't come to that because my next stop was a huge, multi-level store where I knew I would find the perfect gift for my husband.
I arrived at the huge store and was surprised that the parking lot wasn't all that crowded. Great! I started walking toward the front door when I saw a lady coming out of the building. She was wearing the blue uniform, looking at me with that “look”.
You know, the “I know something you don't know look.” I recognized it and stopped. “Are they closed ” I asked her. “Yes ma’am. We close at 6: 00,” she pleasantly answered. My head fell forward and my feet were painful. I felt upset. This was a huge store. It was the holidays. How could they be closed I couldn't help crying in the parking lot.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The lady walked toward me and asked: “Are you ohey ”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hearing what I said, the lady thought of a good idea.

Have you ever heard of the Northward Family, a herd of Asian elephants that made their journey in Yunnan They were a bit naughty for they invaded villagers’ fields. Scientists who took part in scientific research and conservation have also used unmanned aerial vehicles (无人机) and other advanced means to carry out monitoring and early warning of the herd’s arrival. The government also made fences around villagers’ houses, which make effective protection of elephants from humans, making sure the safety of humans and elephants.
In addition, safety signs, warning signs and solar-powered street lights have been fixed along the roads where the herd may appear, to remind passers-by to be careful. The government has also set up a “canteen” for the elephants, providing them with food such as banana, corn and so on.
Is this amazing “migration” just a journey or a “survival revolution” in search of a new home A lot of friends who care about the Northward Family are wondering: Is elephants’ migration related to the destruction of their living environment Only time will tell.
What do humans think of the elephant’s journey On the one hand, it is no accident. We humans can help elephants by respecting their activities. It is within our power to respect science, follow the advice of experts, guide and urge our friends and children to keep their distance. If elephants really become our “neighbors”, how to deal with the “neighborly relations” will certainly become a problem we have to face.
On the other hand, the elephant’s journey has shown China’s achievements in protecting its natural environment and wildlife in recent decades. There is no doubt that the normal rotation of the earth cannot depend on the human species alone. The preservation of biodiversity is the “secret” of the earth’s ecological sustainability. When nature becomes something that animals and plants desire, humans will live a wonderful life too.
32. Why was the Northern Family described naughty

C. They ate a lot of bananas on the way. D. They escaped from where they lived.
33. What did the government do for the herd of elephants
A. They fed the herd with food that is proper.
B. They paid attention to the elephants’ movement.
C. They removed the fences around villagers’ houses.
D. They blocked the roads where the herd might appear.
34. Why did the elephant herd start traveling

C. Dealing with elephant’s journey is beyond human’s ability.
D. Great efforts have been made in protecting wildlife in China.

But there are so many important places not yet on this list.( 我们知道，神农架林区于2016年7月17日被列入联合国世界遗产名录。但是还有很多重要的地方还没有在这个名单上。)”可知，神农架林区被列入联合国世界遗产名录，结合下文中的“UNESCO awarded Shennongjia Forestry District this status because it meets two criteria required by the list. It contains a naturally-balanced environment.(联合国教科文组织授予神农架森林保护区这一称号，是因为它满足了名录所要求的两个标准。它包含一个自然平衡的环境。)”可知，第二段开始讲述的是神农架被授予森林保护区这一称号的原因，由此可知，此空处引出下文中解释神农架被授予森林保护区称号的原因，C选项“You might think why Shennongjia was chosen(你或许会想为什么选择了神农架)”作为过渡句，自然衔接第二段的内容，解释神农架被选入世界文化遗产名录的原因。故选C项。
【37题详解】
根据空前“It contains a naturally-balanced environment.(它包含一个自然平衡的环境。)可知，神农架被授予森林保护区称号的原因是它含有一个自然平衡环境，结合空后的“It is also one of the rare locations in the world where scientists can observe in real time the ecological and biological processes that occur as the plants and animals develop and evolve.(它也是世界上为数不多的科学家可以实时观察动植物发展和进化过程的生态和生物过程的地点之一。)”可知，此空处应进一步阐述被授予森林保护区称号的原因，B选项“It allows various species to live and prosper(它使各种物种得以生存和繁荣)”讲述的是神农架使各种物种的一生存和繁荣，与空前和空后内容衔接。故选B项。
【38题详解】

The region rises from about 400 meters to over 3, 000 meters above sea level, giving it the name the “Roof of Central China”. Secondly, it has incredible biodiversity. (首先，神农架显然是世界上最“完整”的自然区域之一。该地区海拔从400米左右上升到3000多米，因此被称为“华中屋脊”。其次，它拥有令人难以置信的生物多样性。)”可知，本段内容主要解释了被选入世界文化遗产名录的两个原因，F选项“There are two main reasons for Shennongjia was chosen(神农架被选入名录有两个主要的理由)”讲述的内容与空后的内容吻合，概括了本段的内容，作为本段的主旨句最为合适。故选F项。
【39题详解】
根据空前的“It is a challenge to look after so many species in freezing cold winter. Scientists walked in heavy snow to supply food to the Golden Snub-nosed Monkey.(在寒冷的冬天照顾这么多的物种是一项挑战。科学家们在大雪中行走，为金丝猴提供食物。)”可知，本段的主题介绍的是在冬季照顾这么多物种是一种挑战，进而以照顾金丝猴为例做出解释，D选项“If they hadn’t made efforts to save these monkeys(如果他们没有努力拯救这些猴子)”讲述的内容与空前照顾猴子的事例吻合，且与空后的“the monkey’s population wouldn’t had doubled since the 1980s.(自20世纪80年代以来，猴子的数量不会翻倍。)”构成条件关系，符合语境。故选D项。
【40题详解】
根据本段的主题句“But the most impressive aspect of Shennongjia is the local people.(但神农架最令人印象深刻的是当地的人民)”可知，本段讲述的是神农架地区的当地人民是最令人印象深刻的，结合空后的“A local village is known for its home-made honey.(当地一个村庄以自制蜂蜜而闻名。)”可知，此处举例说明当地人民的情况，所以，此空处应进一步介绍当地人民的相关情况，E选项“They take things from nature without causing damage(他们从自然中获取东西而不造成损害)”讲述的是当地人们在自然中获取东西但不对自然造成伤害，其中的they指代的为空前的the local people，符合语境。故选E项。

67. 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。
It was a week before Christmas. Despite all the encouraging words I had given myself, I was having a really hard time staying positive. In a few days I would be facing the wedding anniversary (纪念日) on December 23rd. I had always looked forward to this time of year.
I was wandering about in the street, looking for a gift for my husband. The clock read 4: 00p. m. I still didn't find anything satisfying. I decided to head to a neighboring town to find the perfect gift for my dear Joey. I made it into town and stopped by a few local shops, festive with holiday music and bright Christmas light. Shoppers hurried from one place to another, eagerly picking out the perfect gift for their loved ones. I left empty-handed but not completely discouraged. I still had two more stops and I was determined to find something before I headed home.
I wondered that the local trading post would have a few good “gifts.” I headed that way and arrived at 6: 04 p. m. The sign on the locked gate showed I had missed it by four minutes. I took a deep breath. The thought of having to go out another day and do this all over again was unbearable. I shook my head. It wouldn't come to that because my next stop was a huge, multi-level store where I knew I would find the perfect gift for my husband.
I arrived at the huge store and was surprised that the parking lot wasn't all that crowded. Great! I started walking toward the front door when I saw a lady coming out of the building. She was wearing the blue uniform, looking at me with that “look”.
You know, the “I know something you don't know look.” I recognized it and stopped. “Are they closed ” I asked her. “Yes ma’am. We close at 6: 00,” she pleasantly answered. My head fell forward and my feet were painful. I felt upset. This was a huge store. It was the holidays. How could they be closed I couldn't help crying in the parking lot.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The lady walked toward me and asked: “Are you ohey ”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】范文
The lady walked toward me and asked: “Are you okey ” Now, if you are a woman and you have ever had a really bad day, you know what happens when someone asks if you are okey. You spill the beans about whatever it is that has got you down. And that’s exactly what I did. I told her I was looking for a perfect gift for my husband and I had spent the whole afternoon wandering without any results.
Hearing what I said, the lady thought of a good idea. She reappeared a minute later. She was excited as she told me the manager had agreed to open the store for me. She led me to the back of the store and showed me where I could find the perfect gift. I stood there looking at the huge empty space that was normally filled with hundreds of people and I knew this woman had already lit my day. I was grateful for what she had done for me.
