I began learning languages at the age of five, when my parents sent me to an after-school French class at my primary school. My parents, who speak English, stressed using different languages at home — even Grandpa could speak a foreign language! I don’t remember much from those early classes, aside from learning different colours and days of the week over and over, but I do know that it was during these moments that I first discovered the joy of journeying away from my surroundings with words. Because in French class it was easy to imagine we were somewhere else, away-far away-from the present, which was a really attractive idea to a young child with a wild imagination.
I stuck with French as I grew up; it was one of those strong relationships that provides comfort. It wasn’t until I began learning Spanish (西班牙语) at age 11 that I experienced a more transformative (变化的) relationship with languages.
Looking back, it strikes me that Spanish, for me, was always about feelings. At the beginning the focus was on learning words and grammar to describe how I was feeling, but I somehow ended up with a language that helped me express myself better than my native language.
After years of studying Spanish at school, and living in Spain, my Spanish came to match, and perhaps even exceed (超过), my English. Despite having returned to the UK ten years ago, now I still often find myself stuck in English conversations, unable to express a thought or feeling with quite the same depth as I would be able to in Spanish.
Spanish affords me another kind of liveliness. I’m not just “in love”. To me, “te echo de menos” houses more feeling than “I miss you,” which takes me back to a time in my life that I miss a lot.
4. What is the author’s native language
A. French. B. English. C. Spanish. D. Chinese.
5. Why did the author feel enjoyable in French class
A. He could picture an amazing world. B. He had no homework to do.
C. He could turn to his parents for help. D. He found it similar to English.
6. How is Spanish different from other languages for the author
A. It uses a host of simpler words. B. It leads to more misunderstanding.
C. It has more difficult grammar rules. D. It allows him to better express feelings.
7. What does the author want to say in the last paragraph
A. He succeeded at the cost of hard work. B. Learning a language takes too much time.
C. Spanish brings the happy past into his mind. D. He often misses the vacation spent in the UK.

Last September, a strange seismic signal (地震信号), lasting more than a week, attracted the attention of researchers around the world. It took 68 experts from 15 countries to discover the cause of the “USO” -Unidentified Seismic Object.
The term USO is used informally by scientists for unusual seismic signals that can’t be explained, according to Kristian Svennevig, the lead author of a new report on this signal. From the start, scientists agreed this signal was not from an earthquake.
Svennevig compared earthquakes to hitting piano keys with force, creating a mix of sounds that disappeared quickly. However, the unusual signal was like a single piano key producing a clear sound that lasted for nine days.
Researchers tracked the signal to a huge snowslide in eastern Greenland’s Dickson fjord (峡湾), which was formed by melting (融化) ice due to climate change. Some 1.2 kilometers above the fjord, a mountaintop fell, driving more than 25 million cubic meters of rock and ice into the water-enough to fill 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
The resulting tsunami (海啸) reached a height of 200 meters. The wave’s energy was caught in the rocky fjord, causing the water to move back and forth. This movement created the seismic signal.
Svennevig noted that understanding this event took time. Even when they had ideas about what happened, they needed more information and improved models to support their findings. “We could only show that the tsunami was caught and kept moving inside the fjord for nine days after we used special army maps and improved our tsunami models,” Svennevig explained.
To the researchers, the signal served as a wakeup call-similar events may happen with landfalls in other fjords or lakes due to climate change, which could lead to more landfalls and tsunamis in the Arctic. Understanding this event helps scientists learn more about how the Earth is changing due to global warming. There is still much to discover as we face the effects of climate change.
8. Why did Svennevig mention piano keys
A. To explain the strange signal. B. To introduce a musical instrument.
C. To compare the sounds in nature. D. To give tips on playing the piano.
9. What caused the seismic signal
A. A wildfire. B. A snowslide.
C. A heavy rain. D. An earthquake.
10. What can we know from Svennevig’s words
A. It’ll take much time to receive the seismic signal.
B. It’s slow for scientists to find an answer to the event.
C. A group of scientists was caught in the deadly tsunami.
D The researchers will make public the recent finding soon.
11. What does the author stress in the text
A. Landfalls always happen along with tsunamis.
B. Scientists should keep an open mind on opinions.
C. This event may shape our view on various cultures.
D. The signal gives us fair warning of climate change.
D
Bruce has been missing the upper part of his beak (喙) since at least 2012. This makes the parrot look different. But scientists are more surprised at what he can do in spite of his injury.
When he was saved, this young bird, just at the age he was learning to fly, went to live at the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve in Christchurch, southern New Zealand.
Long, sharp beaks help parrots find insects in the woods. Bruce’s injured beak means he couldn’t forage on his own. Normally these birds use their beaks to keep their feathers (羽毛) clean, but Bruce couldn’t. However, researchers noticed that Bruce had his own way to do it.
First, he looks for his tool among pointy small stones. He then rolls a few stones around in his mouth with his tongue until he finds one that he likes. He holds the chosen stone between his tongue and lower beak to pick through his feathers.
This behavior didn’t come from the wild. When Bruce arrived at Willowbank, he was too young to learn it. And no other bird at Willowbank uses stones this way. “It seems like he just creates this tool for himself,” says Amalia Bastos, who researches how animals understand the world.
Tool use is just one of parrots’ many skills. The birds are famous for copying-and perhaps even understanding-human speech. These make the birds seem quite smart. But studying intelligence (智力) is difficult, especially in animals other than humans.
Researchers once thought these skills made humans special. But some other animals also practice these skills, such as dolphins and elephants. So do parrots. Even so, parrots may not be an obvious choice for studying human-like intelligence. Parrots’ bodies are very different than ours. Their brains also look quite simple compared to ours. But studies over the last 10 years are highlighting the hidden powers of bird brains. And those powers suggest parrots may be able to teach us about what human-like intelligence is like.
12. What can be learned about Bruce before he lived at Willowbank
A. He was badly hurt. B. He was kept at a zoo.
C. He was old enough. D. He was lost in the woods.
13. Which best explains the word “forage” underlined in paragraph 3
A. Cry out for help. B. Turn up in time.
C. Search for food. D. Live with others.
14. What can we infer about Bruce
A. He taught himself to use tools. B. He always ran into trouble.
C. He failed to build a new home. D. He learnt the skill in the wild.
15. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Taking Action to Protect Parrots B. Knowing Animals’ Survival Skill
C. Scientists Raise Young Parrots in the Lab D. Parrots May Be Smarter than We Thought

47. 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。
Stuart worked at his father’s garage Monroe’s Auto Repair, a family business that had been around for over thirty years. He was well known for always putting in hard work and sticking to doing the right thing. Everyone who had visited the garage greatly admired Stuart for how much he cared about his work and providing quality service at a very reasonable price. However, business wasn’t good recently.
On a hot July afternoon, a shiny black sports car pulled up to the garage. Its owner, Mr. Davis, a wealthy businessman, was a regular customer. He had always been polite, but he sounded quite unfriendly and acted strangely that day. Even so, Stuart welcomed him with his usual warmth.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Davis! What can I do for you today ”
“There is something wrong with my car. I think it’s the transmission (传动装置). I need it fixed as soon as possible. Can you make it ” Mr. Davis asked, in a cold, hard voice.
“Of course,” Stuart replied. “We’ll get it checked now. I’ll call you as soon as we fix it.”
As Stuart and his father began examining the sports car, they discovered something unusual. The transmission was fine, but the real problem was a minor electrical fault (故障) that would take only about one hour to fix. Stuart made a quick note of the problem and decided to have a thorough (全面的) check to ensure there were no other hidden problems. He didn’t finish the work until darkness fell.
Later that evening, Stuart was reviewing the job ticket when he noticed something amazing. The car had a high-end, specialized engine that required specific parts, and these parts were rather expensive. If Stuart reported a major problem with the transmission, he could ask Mr. Davis to pay much more for the repair, taking advantage of the chance for more money. It would be easy to change the records and say that the problem was much worse than it really was.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Stuart sat at his desk, lost in deep thought.

【答案】
Dear Paul,
I’m Li Hua. I’m writing to you because I’m having a hard time communicating with my parents.
We seem to be in different worlds. They are constantly worried about my academic performance and future, while I have my own dreams and interests. Every time I try to talk about them, they either dismiss them or force me to focus on what they think is important. This has led to many arguments and made the atmosphere at home very tense. I’m really confused and don’t know how to make them understand me. I hope you can offer some practical advice to help me improve this situation.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Stuart sat at his desk, lost in deep thought. He knew that he could easily exploit this situation to make more money, but his conscience was telling him otherwise. Stuart had always been taught to be honest and to stick to doing the right thing, even when no one was watching. He realized that it was not worth sacrificing his integrity for a little extra money. He decided to be honest with Mr. Davis and only charge him for the actual repairs that were needed.
Stuart smiled, “We only ask for payment that’s necessary.”He called Mr. Davis and explained the situation to him. Mr. Davis was surprised and grateful for Stuart’s honesty. He paid for the repairs and left the garage, promising to recommend Stuart’s services to his friends and colleagues. Stuart knew that he had made the right decision. He had lived up to his values and had gained the trust and respect of a valued customer. He realized that honesty and integrity were the keys to success in any business.
