(2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测)It took an ill screech owl (鸣角鸮) to teach a scientist the value of up-close-and-personal study.
In his Harvad talk, Carl Safina, an ecologist and author of Alfie and Me: What Owls Know, What Humans Believe, recalled that the chick was found dying in his backyard. Safina took it in and planned to nurse it back to
health and then perform release. But the owlet's flight feathers didn't grow properly. Safina delayed the release. Over those extended months, Safina got to know Alfie in ways that moved and changed him.
“An owl found me and then I was watching ‘an owl’,” he said. “It was no longer an owl after a while, it was ‘she’ because she had a history with me. This little owl, who was with me much longer than I thought she would be, became an individual to me by that history and all those interactions.”
The bond with Alfie strengthened to the point that, when she was finally released, she created a territory with Safina's home at its center. Safina was able to spend hours each day observing her in the woods as she learned to take care of herself in the wild, met two mates, and raised chicks of her own.
When he heard Alfie calling, Safina said, he'd call back and she'd land nearby. Their closeness allowed him to learn more things about screech owls. Field guides, for example, describe two known calls but he identified six, some of which you have to be quite close to hear. The relationship also opened a window for Safina onto personality differences between Alfie and her mates.
When pointed out that his approach to Alfie—including the act of naming her—ran counter to widespread scientific practice, Safina said he wasn't concerned about violating (违反) convention, particularly if something interesting like individual personality differences among owls could be learned.
The experience caused Safina to think more deeply about humankind's relationship with nature and the kind of personal connection he was able to feel with a wild individual. “What I learned from Alfie is that all sentient (有情感的) beings seek a feeling of well-being and freedom of movement,” Safina said. “That's a guide to what's right and what's wrong to me.”
4.What do we know about Alfie
A.She developed a close bond with Safina.
B.She was a fictional character in Safina's book.
C.She intentionally landed in Safina's backyard.
D.She was dying because of the broken flight feathers.
5.What happened after Safina released Alfie
A.Alfie chose to stay with Safina at his home.
B.They maintained a continous communication.
C.Alfie met mates and raised chicks by herself.
D.Safina kept his distance from her to prevent attachment.
6.What did Safina achieve in his study
A.Recording six different calls of the screech owl.
B.Identifying different types of owls by their calls.
C.Learning how to release owls back into the wild.
D.Understanding personality differences among owls.
7.How did Safina's experience with Alfie impact him
A.He became more focused on exploring nature.
B.He initiated his commitment to wildlife conservation.
C.He developed a deep appreciation for the welfare of living creatures.
D.He decided to guide readers to distinguish between right and wrong.
【答案】4.A 5.B 6.D 7.C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了生态学家Carl Safina与一只名叫Alfie的鸣角鸮的故事,以及这段经历对他的影响。
4.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Over those extended months, Safina got to know Alfie in ways that moved and changed him.”(在那些漫长的月份里,萨菲纳以一种感动并改变他的方式了解了阿尔菲。)根据第三段“This little owl, who was with me much longer than I thought she would be, became an individual to me by that history and all those interactions.”(这只小猫头鹰,它和我在一起的时间比我想象的要长得多,通过那段历史和所有这些互动,它成为了我的一部分)可知,Safina与Alfie建立了紧密的联系。故选A。
5.细节理解题。根据文章第五段“When he heard Alfie calling, Safina said, he'd call back and she'd land nearby.”(当他听到阿尔菲的叫声时,萨菲纳说,他会回应,她就会降落在附近。)可知,他们保持了持续的交流,故选B。
6.细节理解题。根据文章第五段“The relationship also opened a window for Safina onto personality differences between Alfie and her mates.”(这种关系也为萨菲纳打开了一个窗口,让他看到阿尔菲和她的伴侣之间的性格差异。)可知,Safina理解了猫头鹰之间的性格差异,故选D
7.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“What I learned from Alfie is that all sentient beings seek a feeling of well-being and freedom of movement,” Safina said. “That's a guide to what's right and what's wrong to me.”(我从阿尔菲那里学到的是,所有有情感的生物都寻求幸福感和自由的移动,”萨菲纳说。“这对我来说是判断对错的指南。”)可知,Safina对生物的幸福产生了深深的欣赏,故选C。
C
(2023·四川成都·一模)One of the world’s oldest preserved human settlements has been significantly damaged by pouring rain in Pakistan as the country battles the worst floods in its history.
Moenjodaro, a World Heritage site in the Indus River valley 508 kilometers (316 miles) from Karachi, was built in the Bronze Age, some 5,000 years ago. “Unfortunately we witnessed the mass destruction at the site,” reads a letter from the Cultural, Tourism & Antiquities Department of Singh state sent to UNESCO and signed by director Ihsan Ali Abbasi and architect Naveed Ahmed Sangah. The letter adds the site was being used as temporary accommodation for surrounding residents whose own homes had flooded.
Moenjodaro’s significance can’t be underestimated when it was added to UNESCO’s register in 1980, the organization wrote that Moenjodaro “bears exceptional proof to the Indus civilization,” comprising “the most ancient planned city on the Indian subcontinent”.
The letter explains some of the immediate actions the site team has taken to mitigate the flood damage, like bringing in water pumps and repairing brickwork. But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.
Abbasi and Sangah ended their letter by asking for 100 million Pakistani rupees ($45 million) to cover the costs of full repairs. UNESCO has responded to the request for help, allocating $350,000 from its emergency fund for damaged historic sites in Pakistan during UN Secretary General António Guterres’s visit to the flood-stricken country this week.
The funds will go to Moenjodaro and other sites including the Amri Museum. While the sum is far less than needed to fully repair the sites, it will pay for urgent work while UNESCO and local organization consider the best way forward. Sadly, the conservators of Moenjodaro have known for some time that flooding could bring a serious risk to the site.
In their letter, Abbasi and Sangah express concern that Moenjodaro could be added to the list of UNESCO sites in danger, which the preservation body updates periodically to highlight historic places that are at severe risk of ruin.
8.What makes Moenjodaro special to Pakistan
A.The geographic feature it bears.
B.The role it played in fighting floods.
C.The mass destruction it suffered in history.
D.The value it holds in history and architecture.
9.What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Reduce. B.Suffer. C.Avoid. D.Assess.
10.Which best describes the situation of the repair work made so far
A.Creative. B.Worrying. C.Impractical. D.Satisfactory.
11.Which can be a suitable title for the text
A.Pakistan’s Deadly Floods Causing Widespread Damage
B.Moenjodaro Calling for Attention to Its Severe Damage
C.Moenjodaro Added to the List of UNESCO Sites in Danger
D.Pakistan UNESCO Site Moenjodaro Badly Damaged by Flooding
【答案】8.D 9.A 10.B 11.D
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了世界上保存最古老的人类住区之一——巴基斯坦的世界遗产门佐达罗在暴雨中遭到严重破坏和拯救方法。
8.细节理解题。根据第三段“Moenjodaro’s significance can’t be underestimated when it was added to UNESCO’s register in 1980, the organization wrote that Moenjodaro “bears exceptional proof to the Indus civilization,” comprising “the most ancient planned city on the Indian subcontinent”.(1980年,当门佐达罗被列入联合国教科文组织名录时,它的重要性不容小觑。该组织写道,门佐达罗“为印度河文明提供了独特的证据”,是“印度次大陆上最古老的规划城市”)”可知,门佐达罗在历史和建筑上的价值使它对巴基斯坦来说很特别。故选D。
9.词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The letter explains some of the immediate actions the site team has taken(这封信解释了现场团队立即采取的一些行动)”及下文“like bringing in water pumps and repairing brickwork. But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.(比如引进水泵和修复砖墙。但很明显,这些措施还不够)”可知,现场团队立即采取了一些措施来减轻洪水破坏。由此可知,划线词mitigate与reduce“减少,降低”意思接近。故选A。
10.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.(但很明显,这些措施还不够)”及倒数第二段中的“While the sum is far less than needed to fully repair the sites, it will pay for urgent work while UNESCO and local organization consider the best way forward.(虽然这笔钱远远少于完全修复遗址所需的钱,但它将支付联合国教科文组织和当地组织考虑最佳前进方式的紧急工作)”及最后一段“In their letter, Abbasi and Sangah express concern that Moenjodaro could be added to the list of UNESCO sites in danger, which the preservation body updates periodically to highlight historic places that are at severe risk of ruin.(在他们的信中,Abbasi和Sangah表达了对门佐达罗可能被列入联合国教科文组织濒危遗址名单的担忧,该保护机构定期更新该名单,以突出那些面临严重破坏风险的历史遗迹)”可推知,到目前为止,维修工作的情况令人担忧。故
选B。
11.主旨大意题。根据第一段“One of the world’s oldest preserved human settlements has been significantly damaged by pouring rain in Pakistan as the country battles the worst floods in its history.(巴基斯坦正在与历史上最严重的洪水作斗争,世界上保存最古老的人类住区之一在暴雨中遭到严重破坏)”及下文介绍可知,文章主要介绍了世界上保存最古老的人类住区之一——巴基斯坦的世界遗产门佐达罗在暴雨中遭到严重破坏和拯救方法。由此可知,D. Pakistan UNESCO Site Moenjodaro Badly Damaged by Flooding(巴基斯坦联合国教科文组织世界遗产地门佐达罗被洪水严重破坏)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。
D
(2024·浙江绍兴·三模)About a decade ago, wearing hanfu, a traditional style of clothing worn by China’s Han ethnic group, was considered more of a hobby, with a relatively small number of Chinese individuals participating in the trend. Currently, there is a notable shift as young consumers in China are urging brands to acknowledge their heritage and adapt to it to influence the market. The hanfu movement rather suits this rhetoric, advocating cultural autonomy infused with a touch of patriotism.
Many Chinese Gen Zs have come to realize that fashion is not exclusive to Western styles; they have also recognized the allure and appeal of their own traditional garments. Cultural confidence has played a significant role in popularizing these traditional clothing choices.
Jun Baoyuan, a 24-year-old graduate from the Beijing Institute of Technology, said that people who develop an interest in hanfu will in turn learn more about the traditional skills rooted in Chinese culture, including cloth weaving and traditional jewelry handicrafts. She also noted that many of her close friends today had entered her life as a result of their shared passion for hanfu. Jun often shares her hanfu-clad adventures on Douyin, where she has gathered a 60,000-strong following.
As her reputation as a high-flying hanfu model grew, she started collaborating with museums in China and participating in a range of events. But Jun also warned that with the popularity of hanfu events and the rising number of enthusiasts who want to join the movement, some merchants have fueled unfair competition by selling poor-quality hanfu garments at high prices. These days, making sure you get your money’s worth requires a good deal of knowledge.
The hanfu movement is among the most significant currents in the contemporary young Chinese cultural narrative. They have brought a sense of pride and Chinese aesthetics to social media, where overseas Chinese, too, can express their heritage. Psychologically and culturally, the hanfu movement is playing a major role in shaping
the new generation of young Chinese, blending modernity with tradition. It is nothing short of remarkable to see China’s Gen Zs coming together to embrace and celebrate their customs. Although the future path of the hanfu movement has yet to unveil itself, it’s surely a phenomenon worth monitoring. The revival of Chinese culture has gained force and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
12.What contributes to the revival of hanfu
A.The brands’ desire for more profit.
B.The experts’ advocacy of patriotism.
C.The youth’s recognition of traditional culture.
D.The economic development of Han ethnic group.
13.What do we know about Jun
A.She is expert in hand-made products.
B.She gained popularity for her adventures.
C.She cooperated with museums for her reputation.
D.She expanded her social circle thanks to her passion.
14.What is Jun’s attitude towards the current hanfu movement
A.Disapproval. B.Objective. C.Suspicious. D.Defensive.
15.What is the main idea of Paragraph 5
A.The future prospect of the hanfu movement.
B.The great significance of the hanfu movement.
C.The potential risks coming with the hanfu movement.
D.The Gen Zs’ quality reflected by the hanfu movement.
【答案】12.C 13.D 14.B 15.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了汉服运动在中国年轻人中兴起的现象及其对文化传承的重要意义,强调了青年一代对传统文化的认同与自豪感。
12.细节理解题。根据第二段的“Many Chinese Gen Zs have come to realize that fashion is not exclusive to Western styles; they have also recognized the allure and appeal of their own traditional garments.(许多中国Z世代已经意识到,时尚并不是西方风格的专属;他们也认识到了自己传统服装的吸引力和吸引力)”可知,年轻一代开始意识到传统服饰的魅力,对传统文化的认可促进了汉服的复兴。故选C。
13.细节理解题。根据第三段的“She also noted that many of her close friends today had entered her life as a result
of their shared passion for hanfu.(她还指出,她今天的许多密友都是因为对汉服的共同热爱而进入她的生活的)” 可知,因为对汉服的热爱,Jun的社交圈子得以扩大。故选D。
14.推理判断题。根据第四段的“As her reputation as a high-flying hanfu model grew, she started collaborating with museums in China and participating in a range of events. But Jun also warned that with the popularity of hanfu events and the rising number of enthusiasts who want to join the movement, some merchants have fueled unfair competition by selling poor-quality hanfu garments at high prices. (随着她作为一名出色的汉服模特的名声越来越大,她开始与中国的博物馆合作,并参加了一系列活动。但Jun也警告说,随着汉服活动的流行和想加入这场运动的爱好者人数的增加,一些商家以高价出售劣质汉服,加剧了不公平竞争)”可知,Jun既提到汉服运动带来的正面影响,如与博物馆合作参与活动,也提到了存在的问题,如不良商家高价销售劣质汉服,表明她持有客观的态度。故选B。
15.主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“The hanfu movement is among the most significant currents in the contemporary young Chinese cultural narrative. They have brought a sense of pride and Chinese aesthetics to social media, where overseas Chinese, too, can express their heritage.(汉服运动是当代中国青年文化叙事中最重要的潮流之一。他们为社交媒体带来了自豪感和中国美学,海外华人也可以在社交媒体上表达他们的传统)”以及全段可知,第五段阐述了汉服运动在当代中国文化叙事中的重要地位,提到它在心理和文化层面对塑造融合现代与传统的年轻一代所起的作用,以及对中国Z世代团结起来拥抱和庆祝自己习俗的现象表示肯定,整体强调了汉服运动的重大意义。故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
(2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测)Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world.
The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank. 16 Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance.
It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England, which proved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside.
18 The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines. 20 .
Public acceptance of deposits (存款) by machine was significantly slower than customers’ usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general, it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction (交易) for deposits.
A.Location, in particular, was a key factor.
B.His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable.
C.The device was relatively primitive, at least by today’s standards.
D.However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions.
E.An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer identification.
F.Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions.
G.Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine.
【答案】16.B 17.C 18.G 19.A 20.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了自动取款机(ATM)的发展历程和其在现代生活中的重要性。
16.根据上文“It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank.(人们很容易认为,这样一台受欢迎机器的发明者一定赚得盆满钵满)”和下文“Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance.(1939年,该设备在纽约运行了六个月后,由于缺乏客户接受,该设备被拆除)”可知,上下文有转折关系,B项“His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable.(然而,他的取款机并没有经受住时间的考验)”承上启下,说明设想和现实有差距,引出下文第一台取款机的真实命运,上下文语意连贯。故选B项。
17.下文“The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside.(第一台自动取款机依靠顾客使用预付代币来获得装有固定数量现金的信封)”介绍了第一台自动取款机的工作原理:用预付代币来换取现金信封,是对C项“The device was relatively primitive, at least
by today’s standards.(这个装置相对来说比较原始,至少以今天的标准来看是这样)”的说明,说明第一台自动取款机比较原始的工作原理,上下文语意连贯。故选C项。
18.下文“The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent.(银行的原则似乎是客户服务。但是,低估自动取款机给银行自身带来的诸多好处是愚蠢的。到20世纪70年代末,大型银行的平均固定成本最高的是其分支机构。最大的可变成本和利润损失是它的员工。银行账户很快意识到,自助服务可以将银行分行的员工成本降低70%)”说明了自动取款机给银行带来的诸多好处,解释了G项“Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine.(不久之后,许多其他银行成为公认的自动提款机的拥护者)”中描述的这一现象,许多银行为了获益开始使用自动提款机,上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
19.下文“For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better.(为了最大限度地提高效率,自动取款机必须设在公共交通附近或购物中心,而不是在分行。显然,地点越繁忙、越拥挤越好)”指出自动取款机需要设在公共交通附近或购物中心,是对A项“Location, in particular, was a key factor.(尤其是地理位置,是一个关键因素)”的举例说明,说明地理位置的重要作用。故选A项。
20.上文“Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines.(现在,银行提供给客户的现金中,大约75%来自自动取款机)”谈及自动取款机的普及和广泛使用,F项“Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions.(最初被公众忽视的设备现在被认为是不可或缺的设施)”承接上文,总结自动取款机命运的变化,上下文语意连贯。故选F项。

(2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测)It took an ill screech owl (鸣角鸮) to teach a scientist the value of up-close-and-personal study.
In his Harvad talk, Carl Safina, an ecologist and author of Alfie and Me: What Owls Know, What Humans Believe, recalled that the chick was found dying in his backyard. Safina took it in and planned to nurse it back to health and then perform release. But the owlet's flight feathers didn't grow properly. Safina delayed the release. Over those extended months, Safina got to know Alfie in ways that moved and changed him.
“An owl found me and then I was watching ‘an owl’,” he said. “It was no longer an owl after a while, it was ‘she’ because she had a history with me. This little owl, who was with me much longer than I thought she would be, became an individual to me by that history and all those interactions.”
The bond with Alfie strengthened to the point that, when she was finally released, she created a territory with Safina's home at its center. Safina was able to spend hours each day observing her in the woods as she learned to take care of herself in the wild, met two mates, and raised chicks of her own.
When he heard Alfie calling, Safina said, he'd call back and she'd land nearby. Their closeness allowed him to learn more things about screech owls. Field guides, for example, describe two known calls but he identified six, some of which you have to be quite close to hear. The relationship also opened a window for Safina onto personality differences between Alfie and her mates.
When pointed out that his approach to Alfie—including the act of naming her—ran counter to widespread
scientific practice, Safina said he wasn't concerned about violating (违反) convention, particularly if something interesting like individual personality differences among owls could be learned.
The experience caused Safina to think more deeply about humankind's relationship with nature and the kind of personal connection he was able to feel with a wild individual. “What I learned from Alfie is that all sentient (有情感的) beings seek a feeling of well-being and freedom of movement,” Safina said. “That's a guide to what's right and what's wrong to me.”
4.What do we know about Alfie
A.She developed a close bond with Safina.
B.She was a fictional character in Safina's book.
C.She intentionally landed in Safina's backyard.
D.She was dying because of the broken flight feathers.
5.What happened after Safina released Alfie
A.Alfie chose to stay with Safina at his home.
B.They maintained a continous communication.
C.Alfie met mates and raised chicks by herself.
D.Safina kept his distance from her to prevent attachment.
6.What did Safina achieve in his study
A.Recording six different calls of the screech owl.
B.Identifying different types of owls by their calls.
C.Learning how to release owls back into the wild.
D.Understanding personality differences among owls.
7.How did Safina's experience with Alfie impact him
A.He became more focused on exploring nature.
B.He initiated his commitment to wildlife conservation.
C.He developed a deep appreciation for the welfare of living creatures.
D.He decided to guide readers to distinguish between right and wrong.

(2023·四川成都·一模)One of the world’s oldest preserved human settlements has been significantly damaged by pouring rain in Pakistan as the country battles the worst floods in its history.
Moenjodaro, a World Heritage site in the Indus River valley 508 kilometers (316 miles) from Karachi, was built in the Bronze Age, some 5,000 years ago. “Unfortunately we witnessed the mass destruction at the site,” reads a letter from the Cultural, Tourism & Antiquities Department of Singh state sent to UNESCO and signed by director Ihsan Ali Abbasi and architect Naveed Ahmed Sangah. The letter adds the site was being used as temporary accommodation for surrounding residents whose own homes had flooded.
Moenjodaro’s significance can’t be underestimated when it was added to UNESCO’s register in 1980, the organization wrote that Moenjodaro “bears exceptional proof to the Indus civilization,” comprising “the most ancient planned city on the Indian subcontinent”.
The letter explains some of the immediate actions the site team has taken to mitigate the flood damage, like bringing in water pumps and repairing brickwork. But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.
Abbasi and Sangah ended their letter by asking for 100 million Pakistani rupees ($45 million) to cover the costs of full repairs. UNESCO has responded to the request for help, allocating $350,000 from its emergency fund for damaged historic sites in Pakistan during UN Secretary General António Guterres’s visit to the flood-stricken country this week.
The funds will go to Moenjodaro and other sites including the Amri Museum. While the sum is far less than needed to fully repair the sites, it will pay for urgent work while UNESCO and local organization consider the best way forward. Sadly, the conservators of Moenjodaro have known for some time that flooding could bring a serious risk to the site.
In their letter, Abbasi and Sangah express concern that Moenjodaro could be added to the list of UNESCO sites in danger, which the preservation body updates periodically to highlight historic places that are at severe risk of ruin.
8.What makes Moenjodaro special to Pakistan
A.The geographic feature it bears.
B.The role it played in fighting floods.
C.The mass destruction it suffered in history.
D.The value it holds in history and architecture.
9.What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Reduce. B.Suffer. C.Avoid. D.Assess.
10.Which best describes the situation of the repair work made so far
A.Creative. B.Worrying. C.Impractical. D.Satisfactory.
11.Which can be a suitable title for the text
A.Pakistan’s Deadly Floods Causing Widespread Damage
B.Moenjodaro Calling for Attention to Its Severe Damage
C.Moenjodaro Added to the List of UNESCO Sites in Danger
D.Pakistan UNESCO Site Moenjodaro Badly Damaged by Flooding

(2024·浙江绍兴·三模)About a decade ago, wearing hanfu, a traditional style of clothing worn by China’s Han ethnic group, was considered more of a hobby, with a relatively small number of Chinese individuals participating in the trend. Currently, there is a notable shift as young consumers in China are urging brands to acknowledge their heritage and adapt to it to influence the market. The hanfu movement rather suits this rhetoric, advocating cultural autonomy infused with a touch of patriotism.
Many Chinese Gen Zs have come to realize that fashion is not exclusive to Western styles; they have also recognized the allure and appeal of their own traditional garments. Cultural confidence has played a significant role in popularizing these traditional clothing choices.
Jun Baoyuan, a 24-year-old graduate from the Beijing Institute of Technology, said that people who develop an interest in hanfu will in turn learn more about the traditional skills rooted in Chinese culture, including cloth weaving and traditional jewelry handicrafts. She also noted that many of her close friends today had entered her life as a result of their shared passion for hanfu. Jun often shares her hanfu-clad adventures on Douyin, where she has gathered a 60,000-strong following.
As her reputation as a high-flying hanfu model grew, she started collaborating with museums in China and participating in a range of events. But Jun also warned that with the popularity of hanfu events and the rising number of enthusiasts who want to join the movement, some merchants have fueled unfair competition by selling poor-quality hanfu garments at high prices. These days, making sure you get your money’s worth requires a good deal of knowledge.
The hanfu movement is among the most significant currents in the contemporary young Chinese cultural narrative. They have brought a sense of pride and Chinese aesthetics to social media, where overseas Chinese, too, can express their heritage. Psychologically and culturally, the hanfu movement is playing a major role in shaping the new generation of young Chinese, blending modernity with tradition. It is nothing short of remarkable to see
China’s Gen Zs coming together to embrace and celebrate their customs. Although the future path of the hanfu movement has yet to unveil itself, it’s surely a phenomenon worth monitoring. The revival of Chinese culture has gained force and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
12.What contributes to the revival of hanfu
A.The brands’ desire for more profit.
B.The experts’ advocacy of patriotism.
C.The youth’s recognition of traditional culture.
D.The economic development of Han ethnic group.
13.What do we know about Jun
A.She is expert in hand-made products.
B.She gained popularity for her adventures.
C.She cooperated with museums for her reputation.
D.She expanded her social circle thanks to her passion.
14.What is Jun’s attitude towards the current hanfu movement
A.Disapproval. B.Objective. C.Suspicious. D.Defensive.
15.What is the main idea of Paragraph 5
A.The future prospect of the hanfu movement.
B.The great significance of the hanfu movement.
C.The potential risks coming with the hanfu movement.
D.The Gen Zs’ quality reflected by the hanfu movement.

(2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测)Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world.
The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank. 16 Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance.
It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England, which proved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside.
18 The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines. 20 .
Public acceptance of deposits (存款) by machine was significantly slower than customers’ usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general, it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction (交易) for deposits.
A.Location, in particular, was a key factor.
B.His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable.
C.The device was relatively primitive, at least by today’s standards.
D.However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions.
E.An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer identification.
F.Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions.
G.Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine.
