Where does the meat on our table come from It usually comes from livestock like chickens and cows. But did you know that meat can also be made in a lab US company JUST has announced that lab-grown meat could be on some restaurant menus in the United States and Asia by the end of 2018, The Independent reported.
"These meats include chicken nuggets (鸡块), sausage and foie gras (鹅肝酱)," Josh Tetrick, CEO of JUST, told The Independent. Lab meat is sometimes referred to as "clean meat". It is made using the stem cells (干细胞) of living livestock. The cells need to be grown in a lab for a few weeks. For example, making a hamburger patty (肉饼) takes about nine weeks, CNN reported. This is faster than raising a cow, which usually takes over 20 weeks.
The first clean meat was a beef burger that was produced in 2013, but it was said to taste quite dry. How does clean meat taste now Clean meat supporters told CNN that they think it tastes just like traditional meat.
Clean meat has other advantages. It is healthier than traditional meat. Meat producers can control what type of fat goes into the meat. They can produce clean meat that contains healthy fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids (脂肪酸). This kind of fat is good for people's hearts.
Clean meat can also help to solve global warming. According to The Washington Post, about 14.5 percent of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions (排放) come from raising livestock. That's more than the emissions from every car, train, ship and airplane in the world combined. It is predicted that switching to clean meat could lower greenhouse gas emissions by 96 percent, The Independent reported.
4.Where may the meat we eat come from in future
A. Companies. B. Greenhouses. C. Labs. D. Restaurants.
5.What can be used to make "clean meat"
A. Stem cells. B. Fatty acids.
C. Hamburger patties. D. Chicken nuggets.
6.What is the advantage of clean meat
A. It is fatty. B. It is healthy. C. It is free. D. It is smelly.
7.What do we know about clean meat from the last paragraph
A. It comes from livestock. B. It can be switched off.
C. It results in global warming. D. It benefits environment.
C
The hens look up at me from their nesting boxes. They seem slightly annoyed but unsurprised. A child runs up, pushes one of the chickens aside, and snatches two eggs. Around me, a half-dozen more children and adults collect eggs while a half-dozen others hand-feed dried mealworms to birds flocking around our ankles. I reach for an egg from an empty nest. There is something perfect about the way it fits warmly in the palm of my hand before I transfer it into a pretty wire basket provided to me by my hosts.
The egg harvest is a brief, carefully designed agritourism experience offering an experience of the labor rather than just having a bite of food. Snatching a few eggs and uprooting a few vegetables on the farm tour don t constitute a full day s work, but it is also a useful reminder that food doesn t just magically appear on restaurant plates and grocery store shelves. Of course, visitors can take those eggs home or bring them to the on-farm restaurant, Clay, where a chef will use them to prepare breakfast.
A few centuries of industrialization, urbanization, and globalization have collected people into cities, but the attraction of the countryside has always remained. In the new urban-centered world, enterprising farmers have found plenty of opportunities to sell their rural lifestyle along with their crops. Italy promoted the modern model for combining agriculture and tourism in the wake of World War Ⅱ, when the national government encouraged rural populations to continue producing food rather than move to urban areas in search of more profitable jobs.
Agritourism acts as an umbrella term for a wide variety of activities that take place on farms, including farmstays, where guests sleep on-site. For varying investments of time, energy, and money, anyone can engage in our farming system, giving consumers a peek behind the farm-to-table world.
8.Why does the author describe children and adults collecting eggs in the beginning
A. To introduce agritourism.
B. To describe the use of eggs.
C. To show the innocence of the children.
D. To emphasize the happiness of the children and adults.
9.What is accessible to consumers in agritourism activities
A. Engaging in planting vegetables in person.
B. Doing some simple but meaningful farm-work.
C. Enjoying some self-made egg products on the farm.
D. Clarifying the farm-to-table concept through practice.
10.What can you learn from the last two paragraphs
A. The appeal of rural life gradually fade away due to industrialization.
B. The desire to search for more well-paid jobs accelerated the speed of agritourism.
C. Italian government s calls contributed a lot to the trend of moving from villages to cities.
D. Promising farmers were dedicated to promoting their lifestyle along with agricultural products.
11.What is the author s attitude toward agritourism
A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Supportive. D. Sympathetic.
D
Bruce，a parrot missing part of his beak （喙）， creatively uses stones to clean feathers （羽毛）， highlighting advanced intelligence in parrots.
Bruce lost the upper part of his beak in 2012 and was sent to live at a reserve in New Zealand.The defect made Bruce unable to search for food on his own，let alone keep his feathers clean with his beak.But in 2021，when comparative psychologist Bastos arrived at the reserve with colleagues to study parrots，zookeepers reported something strange：Bruce had seemingly figured out how to select and use small stones to clean his own feathers with his beak.
Over nine days，the team kept a close eye on Bruce，quickly taking，videos if he started cleaning his feathers.It turned out that Bruce had indeed invented his own way to do so，the researchers reported in Scientific Reports.
"It's crazy because the behavior was not from the wild，" Bastos says.When Bruce arrived at the reserve，he was too young to learn how to clean his feathers.And no other bird in the reserve uses stones in this way. "It seems like he just invented this tool use for himself，" she says.
Tool use is just one of parrots' many talents.They're famous for copying and even understanding human speech.Some species can also solve complex puzzles，like how to enter a covered rubbish bin or practice self-control.
For a concept as abstract （抽象的） as intelligence，it's challenging to develop a definition that applies across animals.Researchers often point to features once thought to make humans special—enhanced learning，memory，attention and movement control—as signs of advanced skills.However，many of these abilities can also be seen in parrots，as well as other animals like chimpanzees，dolphins and elephants.
"Parrots are our evolutionary （进化的） mirror image.These brilliant birds may teach us about how humanlike intelligence can appear，" behavioral ecologist Antone wrote in his 2022 book The Parrot in the Mirror.With powerful brains and a preference for words，these birds are "the very best example，" he writes， "of nature's 'other try' at humanlike intelligence."
12.What does the underlined word " defect" in paragraph 2 mean？ ______
A. Disadvantage. B. Playfulness. C. Cruelty. D. Measure.
13.Why did Bastos and her team watch Bruce closely？ ______
A. To observe how he lives alone.
B. To find out how he gets food.
C. To prove his ability to defend himself.
D. To confirm his reported behavior.
14.What can be known concerning the parrots？ ______
A. They do well in critical thinking.
B. They're born skillful at using tools.
C. They can complete complicated tasks.
D. They can't match other animals in memory.
15.What's the significance of studying the parrots？ ______
A. Offering an insight into human behavior.
B. Helping further research other species of birds.
C. Learning more about parrots' living environment.
D. Giving reference for the evolution of humanlike intelligence.
二、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项；选项中有两项为多余选项。
In 1985, 16-year-old Douglas Casa, ran the championship 10,000 meter track race at the Empire State Games. Suddenly, with just 200 meters to go, he collapsed on the final straightaway, with his body temperature at dangerous levels. He had suffered an exertional heat stroke（运动型中暑）or sunstroke. (16)
From ancient soldiers on the battlefield to modern warriors on the gridiron（足球球场）, exertional heat stroke, has long been a serious concern. And unlike classical heat stroke, which affects people such as babies and the elderly during heat waves, exertional heat stroke is caused by intense exercise in the heat. (17)
So how do you diagnose an exertional heat stroke The main criterion is a core body temperature greater than 40℃ along with signs of central nervous system disfunction such as confused behavior, or loss of consciousness.
As far as treatment goes, the most important thing to remember is cool first, transport second. The human body can withstand a core temperature above 40℃ for about 30 minutes before cell damage sets in. (18) After any athletic or protective gear has been removed from the victim, place them in an ice water tub while stirring the water and monitoring vitals continuously. (19) As you wait, it s important to keep the victim calm while cooling as much surface area as possible until emergency personnel arrive. If medical staff are available on site, cooling should continue until a core temperature of 38.9℃ is reached.
(20) As Dr. J Levick wrote of exertional heat stroke in 1859, “It strikes down its victim with his full armor on. Youth, health and strength oppose no obstacle to its power.” But don t be frightened so much for it has been 100% survivable with proper care.
A．Fortunately he survived with immediate treatment.
B．When possible seek out places with air-conditioners.
C．So it s necessary to start cooling as quickly as possible.
D．But emergency services should be called before you start.
E．The sun can also take lives away if people are not careful.
F．So far it has been one of the top three killers of athletes in training.
G．It is important to keep the body temperature close to its normal temperature.

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。
Devi looked through the observation window at the kids below, all waiting in line to get into the pool. She turned to her mother with a furious frown on her face. "Mom, they re all little kids! I m 15 already! This is ridiculous!"
"I know, Devi," replied her mother, "but you re a beginner, too, and you have to start somewhere!"
Devi had never been to a swimming lesson in her life. Between schoolwork and helping on her grandfather s farm, she hadn t had time for lessons. The closest swimming pool Devi had been to was the alligator pool her mother bought her when she was five. Now that Devi was older, her mother had found a new job in the city, and Devi faced a new challenge-school field trips to the local pool.
The first day that Devi went with her class to the pool, she had no idea what she was in for. What could be so difficult about swimming Devi confidently slipped into the water and held onto the side of the pool, expecting to be able to touch the bottom with her feet. But when Devi let go of the side of the pool, she slipped under the water-the whole pool was one big deep end! Devi threw her arm toward the side of the pool and grabbed the ledge (池壁), out of breath. "I really can t swim! Everyone s going to laugh at me!" she thought to herself in a panic.
On the next field trip to the pool, Devi sat on the side on a bench, paralyzed with fear. She huddled with a towel over her shoulders, too embarrassed to try again. When she came home, her mother noticed right away that Devi was upset. "Honey, I ve signed you up for Angela s swimming lessons at the local pool. Soon you ll learn how to swim just like everyone else," she assured Devi, showing photos of Angela with her prize-winning students.
注意：

范文：
Paragraph 1: Then came the time for Devi to take her first lesson. With a mix of anticipation and anxiety, she stood at the edge of the pool, her toes curling slightly over the tiles. The sound of splashing water and children's laughter filled the air, but all Devi could focus on was the watery world in front of her. As instructed, she took a deep breath and slowly lowered herself into the water, feeling the cool liquid envelop her body. Her heart pounded in her chest, but she reminded herself that this was the first step towards overcoming her fear.
翻译： 然后轮到Devi上她的第一课。她带着既期待又焦虑的心情站在泳池边，脚趾微微卷曲在瓷砖上。水花飞溅和孩子们的笑声充满了空气，但Devi只能专注于她面前的水世界。按照指示，她深吸了一口气，慢慢地将自己浸入水中，感受着凉爽的液体包围着她的身体。她的心在胸口怦怦跳，但她提醒自己，这是克服恐惧的第一步。
Paragraph 2: Soon Angela came over to where Devi sat, her kind eyes filled with understanding and encouragement. "It's okay to be nervous, Devi," she said softly, patting Devi's shoulder. "We all start somewhere, and I'm here to help you every stroke of the way." With Angela's guidance, Devi began to practice basic floating and kicking techniques. At first, her movements were clumsy and awkward, but with each attempt, she gained more confidence. The water, which once felt like an adversary, now became a supportive element, lifting her up and allowing her to explore the freedom of movement it offered.
翻译： 不久，Angela走到Devi坐着的地方，她那慈祥的眼睛充满了理解和鼓励。“紧张是正常的，Devi，”她轻声说道，拍了拍Devi的肩膀。“我们都有开始的地方，我会全程帮助你。”在Angela的指导下，Devi开始练习基本的漂浮和踢腿技巧。起初，她的动作笨拙而尴尬，但每次尝试，她都获得了更多的信心。水，曾经感觉像是一个敌人，现在变成了一个支持性的元素，托起她，让她探索它提供的自由移动。
解析： 这两段续写紧密联系了原文内容，第一段描述了Devi开始她的第一课，她的心情和动作，以及她如何克服恐惧进入水中。第二段中，教练Angela的角色被引入，她用理解和鼓励帮助Devi开始学习游泳的基本技巧。这两段不仅在情节上与原文衔接，而且在情感上也与Devi的恐惧和决心相呼应，展现了她学习游泳过程中的成长和进步。

Where does the meat on our table come from It usually comes from livestock like chickens and cows. But did you know that meat can also be made in a lab US company JUST has announced that lab-grown meat could be on some restaurant menus in the United States and Asia by the end of 2018, The Independent reported.
"These meats include chicken nuggets (鸡块), sausage and foie gras (鹅肝酱)," Josh Tetrick, CEO of JUST, told The Independent. Lab meat is sometimes referred to as "clean meat". It is made using the stem cells (干细胞) of living livestock. The cells need to be grown in a lab for a few weeks. For example, making a hamburger patty (肉饼) takes about nine weeks, CNN reported. This is faster than raising a cow, which usually takes over 20 weeks.
The first clean meat was a beef burger that was produced in 2013, but it was said to taste quite dry. How does clean meat taste now Clean meat supporters told CNN that they think it tastes just like traditional meat.
Clean meat has other advantages. It is healthier than traditional meat. Meat producers can control what type of fat goes into the meat. They can produce clean meat that contains healthy fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids (脂肪酸). This kind of fat is good for people's hearts.
Clean meat can also help to solve global warming. According to The Washington Post, about 14.5 percent of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions (排放) come from raising livestock. That's more than the emissions from every car, train, ship and airplane in the world combined. It is predicted that switching to clean meat could lower greenhouse gas emissions by 96 percent, The Independent reported.
4.Where may the meat we eat come from in future
A. Companies. B. Greenhouses. C. Labs. D. Restaurants.
5.What can be used to make "clean meat"
A. Stem cells. B. Fatty acids.
C. Hamburger patties. D. Chicken nuggets.
6.What is the advantage of clean meat
A. It is fatty. B. It is healthy. C. It is free. D. It is smelly.
7.What do we know about clean meat from the last paragraph
A. It comes from livestock. B. It can be switched off.
C. It results in global warming. D. It benefits environment.
C
The hens look up at me from their nesting boxes. They seem slightly annoyed but unsurprised. A child runs up, pushes one of the chickens aside, and snatches two eggs. Around me, a half-dozen more children and adults collect eggs while a half-dozen others hand-feed dried mealworms to birds flocking around our ankles. I reach for an egg from an empty nest. There is something perfect about the way it fits warmly in the palm of my hand before I transfer it into a pretty wire basket provided to me by my hosts.
The egg harvest is a brief, carefully designed agritourism experience offering an experience of the labor rather than just having a bite of food. Snatching a few eggs and uprooting a few vegetables on the farm tour don t constitute a full day s work, but it is also a useful reminder that food doesn t just magically appear on restaurant plates and grocery store shelves. Of course, visitors can take those eggs home or bring them to the on-farm restaurant, Clay, where a chef will use them to prepare breakfast.
A few centuries of industrialization, urbanization, and globalization have collected people into cities, but the attraction of the countryside has always remained. In the new urban-centered world, enterprising farmers have found plenty of opportunities to sell their rural lifestyle along with their crops. Italy promoted the modern model for combining agriculture and tourism in the wake of World War Ⅱ, when the national government encouraged rural populations to continue producing food rather than move to urban areas in search of more profitable jobs.
Agritourism acts as an umbrella term for a wide variety of activities that take place on farms, including farmstays, where guests sleep on-site. For varying investments of time, energy, and money, anyone can engage in our farming system, giving consumers a peek behind the farm-to-table world.
8.Why does the author describe children and adults collecting eggs in the beginning
A. To introduce agritourism.
B. To describe the use of eggs.
C. To show the innocence of the children.
D. To emphasize the happiness of the children and adults.
9.What is accessible to consumers in agritourism activities
A. Engaging in planting vegetables in person.
B. Doing some simple but meaningful farm-work.
C. Enjoying some self-made egg products on the farm.
D. Clarifying the farm-to-table concept through practice.
10.What can you learn from the last two paragraphs
A. The appeal of rural life gradually fade away due to industrialization.
B. The desire to search for more well-paid jobs accelerated the speed of agritourism.
C. Italian government s calls contributed a lot to the trend of moving from villages to cities.
D. Promising farmers were dedicated to promoting their lifestyle along with agricultural products.
11.What is the author s attitude toward agritourism
A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Supportive. D. Sympathetic.
D
Bruce，a parrot missing part of his beak （喙）， creatively uses stones to clean feathers （羽毛）， highlighting advanced intelligence in parrots.
Bruce lost the upper part of his beak in 2012 and was sent to live at a reserve in New Zealand.The defect made Bruce unable to search for food on his own，let alone keep his feathers clean with his beak.But in 2021，when comparative psychologist Bastos arrived at the reserve with colleagues to study parrots，zookeepers reported something strange：Bruce had seemingly figured out how to select and use small stones to clean his own feathers with his beak.
Over nine days，the team kept a close eye on Bruce，quickly taking，videos if he started cleaning his feathers.It turned out that Bruce had indeed invented his own way to do so，the researchers reported in Scientific Reports.
"It's crazy because the behavior was not from the wild，" Bastos says.When Bruce arrived at the reserve，he was too young to learn how to clean his feathers.And no other bird in the reserve uses stones in this way. "It seems like he just invented this tool use for himself，" she says.
Tool use is just one of parrots' many talents.They're famous for copying and even understanding human speech.Some species can also solve complex puzzles，like how to enter a covered rubbish bin or practice self-control.
For a concept as abstract （抽象的） as intelligence，it's challenging to develop a definition that applies across animals.Researchers often point to features once thought to make humans special—enhanced learning，memory，attention and movement control—as signs of advanced skills.However，many of these abilities can also be seen in parrots，as well as other animals like chimpanzees，dolphins and elephants.
"Parrots are our evolutionary （进化的） mirror image.These brilliant birds may teach us about how humanlike intelligence can appear，" behavioral ecologist Antone wrote in his 2022 book The Parrot in the Mirror.With powerful brains and a preference for words，these birds are "the very best example，" he writes， "of nature's 'other try' at humanlike intelligence."
12.What does the underlined word " defect" in paragraph 2 mean？ ______
A. Disadvantage. B. Playfulness. C. Cruelty. D. Measure.
13.Why did Bastos and her team watch Bruce closely？ ______
A. To observe how he lives alone.
B. To find out how he gets food.
C. To prove his ability to defend himself.
D. To confirm his reported behavior.
14.What can be known concerning the parrots？ ______
A. They do well in critical thinking.
B. They're born skillful at using tools.
C. They can complete complicated tasks.
D. They can't match other animals in memory.
15.What's the significance of studying the parrots？ ______
A. Offering an insight into human behavior.
B. Helping further research other species of birds.
C. Learning more about parrots' living environment.
D. Giving reference for the evolution of humanlike intelligence.
二、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项；选项中有两项为多余选项。
In 1985, 16-year-old Douglas Casa, ran the championship 10,000 meter track race at the Empire State Games. Suddenly, with just 200 meters to go, he collapsed on the final straightaway, with his body temperature at dangerous levels. He had suffered an exertional heat stroke（运动型中暑）or sunstroke. (16)
From ancient soldiers on the battlefield to modern warriors on the gridiron（足球球场）, exertional heat stroke, has long been a serious concern. And unlike classical heat stroke, which affects people such as babies and the elderly during heat waves, exertional heat stroke is caused by intense exercise in the heat. (17)
So how do you diagnose an exertional heat stroke The main criterion is a core body temperature greater than 40℃ along with signs of central nervous system disfunction such as confused behavior, or loss of consciousness.
As far as treatment goes, the most important thing to remember is cool first, transport second. The human body can withstand a core temperature above 40℃ for about 30 minutes before cell damage sets in. (18) After any athletic or protective gear has been removed from the victim, place them in an ice water tub while stirring the water and monitoring vitals continuously. (19) As you wait, it s important to keep the victim calm while cooling as much surface area as possible until emergency personnel arrive. If medical staff are available on site, cooling should continue until a core temperature of 38.9℃ is reached.
(20) As Dr. J Levick wrote of exertional heat stroke in 1859, “It strikes down its victim with his full armor on. Youth, health and strength oppose no obstacle to its power.” But don t be frightened so much for it has been 100% survivable with proper care.
A．Fortunately he survived with immediate treatment.
B．When possible seek out places with air-conditioners.
C．So it s necessary to start cooling as quickly as possible.
D．But emergency services should be called before you start.
E．The sun can also take lives away if people are not careful.
F．So far it has been one of the top three killers of athletes in training.
G．It is important to keep the body temperature close to its normal temperature.

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。
Devi looked through the observation window at the kids below, all waiting in line to get into the pool. She turned to her mother with a furious frown on her face. "Mom, they re all little kids! I m 15 already! This is ridiculous!"
"I know, Devi," replied her mother, "but you re a beginner, too, and you have to start somewhere!"
Devi had never been to a swimming lesson in her life. Between schoolwork and helping on her grandfather s farm, she hadn t had time for lessons. The closest swimming pool Devi had been to was the alligator pool her mother bought her when she was five. Now that Devi was older, her mother had found a new job in the city, and Devi faced a new challenge-school field trips to the local pool.
The first day that Devi went with her class to the pool, she had no idea what she was in for. What could be so difficult about swimming Devi confidently slipped into the water and held onto the side of the pool, expecting to be able to touch the bottom with her feet. But when Devi let go of the side of the pool, she slipped under the water-the whole pool was one big deep end! Devi threw her arm toward the side of the pool and grabbed the ledge (池壁), out of breath. "I really can t swim! Everyone s going to laugh at me!" she thought to herself in a panic.
On the next field trip to the pool, Devi sat on the side on a bench, paralyzed with fear. She huddled with a towel over her shoulders, too embarrassed to try again. When she came home, her mother noticed right away that Devi was upset. "Honey, I ve signed you up for Angela s swimming lessons at the local pool. Soon you ll learn how to swim just like everyone else," she assured Devi, showing photos of Angela with her prize-winning students.
注意：

范文：
Paragraph 1: Then came the time for Devi to take her first lesson. With a mix of anticipation and anxiety, she stood at the edge of the pool, her toes curling slightly over the tiles. The sound of splashing water and children's laughter filled the air, but all Devi could focus on was the watery world in front of her. As instructed, she took a deep breath and slowly lowered herself into the water, feeling the cool liquid envelop her body. Her heart pounded in her chest, but she reminded herself that this was the first step towards overcoming her fear.
翻译： 然后轮到Devi上她的第一课。她带着既期待又焦虑的心情站在泳池边，脚趾微微卷曲在瓷砖上。水花飞溅和孩子们的笑声充满了空气，但Devi只能专注于她面前的水世界。按照指示，她深吸了一口气，慢慢地将自己浸入水中，感受着凉爽的液体包围着她的身体。她的心在胸口怦怦跳，但她提醒自己，这是克服恐惧的第一步。
Paragraph 2: Soon Angela came over to where Devi sat, her kind eyes filled with understanding and encouragement. "It's okay to be nervous, Devi," she said softly, patting Devi's shoulder. "We all start somewhere, and I'm here to help you every stroke of the way." With Angela's guidance, Devi began to practice basic floating and kicking techniques. At first, her movements were clumsy and awkward, but with each attempt, she gained more confidence. The water, which once felt like an adversary, now became a supportive element, lifting her up and allowing her to explore the freedom of movement it offered.
翻译： 不久，Angela走到Devi坐着的地方，她那慈祥的眼睛充满了理解和鼓励。“紧张是正常的，Devi，”她轻声说道，拍了拍Devi的肩膀。“我们都有开始的地方，我会全程帮助你。”在Angela的指导下，Devi开始练习基本的漂浮和踢腿技巧。起初，她的动作笨拙而尴尬，但每次尝试，她都获得了更多的信心。水，曾经感觉像是一个敌人，现在变成了一个支持性的元素，托起她，让她探索它提供的自由移动。
解析： 这两段续写紧密联系了原文内容，第一段描述了Devi开始她的第一课，她的心情和动作，以及她如何克服恐惧进入水中。第二段中，教练Angela的角色被引入，她用理解和鼓励帮助Devi开始学习游泳的基本技巧。这两段不仅在情节上与原文衔接，而且在情感上也与Devi的恐惧和决心相呼应，展现了她学习游泳过程中的成长和进步。
