Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on 14 March, 1879. 64 Einstein was so smart that at age 16 he wrote his first paper. However, Einstein did badly at school. 65 He ended up at college in Switzerland. His grades meant it was difficult to get a job after college, but a friend found him work finally.
Albert had a great year in 1905, publishing (发表) four scientific papers! 66 One of the things he researched was that energy and mass (质量) are different forms of the same thing. This was explained by his famous equation E=mc . In 1909 Albert was finally made a professor at the University of Zurich. He continued improving his work, and in 1915 he published his theory of general relativity (广义相对论) .
In 1919, one of Albert’s theories was proved, making him the most famous scientist alive! 67 His work changed the way we think about time and space, and also helped with developments like the television.
68 And in 1933, Albert decided to stay in the USA forever. He became an American in 1940. Sadly, Einstein’s work with atoms (原子) led to the invention of the atomic bomb. Albert spent the rest of his life taking part in activities for world peace. He died in 1955.
A.Albert spent lots of time in America.
B.Einstein loved to use his imagination.
C.His work turned modern physics on its head.
D.Even as an adult, Einstein was disorganized.
E.As a child, he enjoyed solving math problems.
F.And he won the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics.

七选五
Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on 14 March, 1879. 64 Einstein was so smart that at age 16 he wrote his first paper. However, Einstein did badly at school. 65 He ended up at college in Switzerland. His grades meant it was difficult to get a job after college, but a friend found him work finally.
Albert had a great year in 1905, publishing (发表) four scientific papers! 66 One of the things he researched was that energy and mass (质量) are different forms of the same thing. This was explained by his famous equation E=mc . In 1909 Albert was finally made a professor at the University of Zurich.

59.恐怕我不能参加你的晚会了,因为我有好多事情要做。
【答案】I am afraid (that) I cannot attend your party, for/because/since/as I have too many things to do.

Google has introduced Interview Warmup, a tool designed to help job seekers to become more confident and comfortable with job interviews. The tool, first announced in October 2022 at the second Google for Africa Event, was designed to help Google Career Certificates learners prepare for job interviews. It is now available for everyone to use.
According to Google, an average job listing in Africa attracts over 2,400 applicants. And this means that the chances of landing a job can be slim. The company also noted that interviewing in a new field can be hard, especially when the job seeker does not have friends, family, or mentors who can help them practice and prepare.
Interview Warmup enables job seekers to practice answering questions carefully selected by industry experts. Users can start practising by clicking on the homepage, choosing the job they are interviewing for, and then do a practice interview that consists of five randomly (随机) selected questions or individual interview questions.
Once the user answers a question, the tool turns it into written words in real-time and provides feedback using machine learning. Besides this, the tool’s machine learning also identifies certain job-related terms and phrases that are overused and generates common “talking points” to improve responses.
Head of Brand and Reputation at Google Africa, Mojolaoluwa Aderemi-Makinde, said, “We are excited about Interview Warmup because it shows how new technologies have the potential to help young people in Africa develop the skills needed to grow their careers. The tool can help create more opportunities for African job seekers.”
“As important as it is to learn the skills needed to perform well on a new job, it is even more important to learn the skills needed to qualify for roles,” she added.
According to her, the Interview Warmup tool strengthens Google’s commitment to continue helping job seekers in Africa with their interview skills and prepare them for the careers they want.
63.How does Interview Warmup help job seekers
A.By reducing their mental pressure.
B.By improving their interview skills.
C.By providing job information for them.
D.By teaching them computer knowledge.
64.What is the job market like in Africa
A.It is changing quickly. B.It is growing steadily.
C.It is far from satisfactory. D.It is highly competitive.
65.What is mainly described in paragraphs 3 and 4

How can humans become immortal (永生的) You might have only seen the idea of uploading the human brain to a digital cloud in science fiction movies. Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, has already done so. 67 “If you could upload your brain to the cloud, and talk to a virtual version of yourself, would you be buddies ” Musk replied on July 19,“Already did it.” The reply indicated that Musk’s brain-computer interface (接口) company, Neuralink, had already realized the technology.
What does Neuralink do
Neuralink was founded by Musk in 2016. The company focuses on brain-computer interface technology which is used to connect the brain to a digital network. It is developing devices for the treatment of patients with neurological disorders (神经障碍). 68
How do brain-computer interfaces work
69 For example, if a person imagines picking up a book, the computer would then learn to identify how the brain gives that command. Next, the computer would send the signal to the machine, which would then move a robotic arm to reach for the book.
70
Uploading a brain is only part of Musk’s plan. He revealed to Insider that his goal is to download human consciousness (意识) into robots. Just like how our memories are stored in mobile phones through pictures and videos, Musk imagines that our brains — not only how we think, but also our personalities and habits — can be transferred (转入) into robots. In this way, even after our bodies are rotten, our brains are preserved. 71 “The most wildly optimistic predictions place mind uploading within a few decades, but I would not be surprised if it took centuries,” wrote Michael S. A.Graziano, a professor at Princeton University, in a Wall Street Journal essay.
A.What will happen next
B.Why does this technology come into being
C.In other words, the company aims to create links between mind and machine.
D.The secret was revealed when a question posted on Twitter caught his attention.
E.So many famous scientists are working together to turn this idea into a great reality.
F.Some experts believe that this could be realized one day, but the timeline is unclear.
G.Computers designed to learn the patterns of neural activity are used to get information from human brains.

Google has introduced Interview Warmup, a tool designed to help job seekers to become more confident and comfortable with job interviews. The tool, first announced in October 2022 at the second Google for Africa Event, was designed to help Google Career Certificates learners prepare for job interviews. It is now available for everyone to use.
According to Google, an average job listing in Africa attracts over 2,400 applicants. And this means that the chances of landing a job can be slim. The company also noted that interviewing in a new field can be hard, especially when the job seeker does not have friends, family, or mentors who can help them practice and prepare.
Interview Warmup enables job seekers to practice answering questions carefully selected by industry experts. Users can start practising by clicking on the homepage, choosing the job they are interviewing for, and then do a practice interview that consists of five randomly (随机) selected questions or individual interview questions.
Once the user answers a question, the tool turns it into written words in real-time and provides feedback using machine learning. Besides this, the tool’s machine learning also identifies certain job-related terms and phrases that are overused and generates common “talking points” to improve responses.
Head of Brand and Reputation at Google Africa, Mojolaoluwa Aderemi-Makinde, said, “We are excited about Interview Warmup because it shows how new technologies have the potential to help young people in Africa develop the skills needed to grow their careers. The tool can help create more opportunities for African job seekers.”
“As important as it is to learn the skills needed to perform well on a new job, it is even more important to learn the skills needed to qualify for roles,” she added.
According to her, the Interview Warmup tool strengthens Google’s commitment to continue helping job seekers in Africa with their interview skills and prepare them for the careers they want.
63.How does Interview Warmup help job seekers
A.By reducing their mental pressure.
B.By improving their interview skills.
C.By providing job information for them.
D.By teaching them computer knowledge.
64.What is the job market like in Africa
A.It is changing quickly. B.It is growing steadily.
C.It is far from satisfactory. D.It is highly competitive.
65.What is mainly described in paragraphs 3 and 4
A.When to use the tool. B.What to expect from the tool.
C.How the tool works. D.Who the tool is designed for.
66.What can we infer from Mojolaoluwa Aderemi-Makinde’s words
A.More people will benefit from Interview Warmup.
B.Technologies can be very helpful if used properly.
C.Interview Warmup has much room for improvement.
D.Job seekers in Africa have little access to technologies.

How can humans become immortal (永生的) You might have only seen the idea of uploading the human brain to a digital cloud in science fiction movies. Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, has already done so. 67 “If you could upload your brain to the cloud, and talk to a virtual version of yourself, would you be buddies ” Musk replied on July 19,“Already did it.” The reply indicated that Musk’s brain-computer interface (接口) company, Neuralink, had already realized the technology.
What does Neuralink do
Neuralink was founded by Musk in 2016. The company focuses on brain-computer interface technology which is used to connect the brain to a digital network. It is developing devices for the treatment of patients with neurological disorders (神经障碍). 68
How do brain-computer interfaces work
69 For example, if a person imagines picking up a book, the computer would then learn to identify how the brain gives that command. Next, the computer would send the signal to the machine, which would then move a robotic arm to reach for the book.
70
Uploading a brain is only part of Musk’s plan. He revealed to Insider that his goal is to download human consciousness (意识) into robots. Just like how our memories are stored in mobile phones through pictures and videos, Musk imagines that our brains — not only how we think, but also our personalities and habits — can be transferred (转入) into robots. In this way, even after our bodies are rotten, our brains are preserved. 71 “The most wildly optimistic predictions place mind uploading within a few decades, but I would not be surprised if it took centuries,” wrote Michael S. A.Graziano, a professor at Princeton University, in a Wall Street Journal essay.
A.What will happen next
B.Why does this technology come into being
C.In other words, the company aims to create links between mind and machine.
D.The secret was revealed when a question posted on Twitter caught his attention.
E.So many famous scientists are working together to turn this idea into a great reality.
F.Some experts believe that this could be realized one day, but the timeline is unclear.
G.Computers designed to learn the patterns of neural activity are used to get information from human brains.

50.In a way, the wild animals (不打扰) is one way to protect them.
【答案】 leaving alone

阅读理解
When I was a boy, our extended, immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt’s tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room to talk and catch up on each other' s lives. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.
Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, I got caught first and couldn't catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, and said, "I'm it! You'd better run!" I ran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.
Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didn't matter that we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.
In her wonderful book: Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, "We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big. beautiful family." Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.
57.When the adults were chatting, the kids would__________.
A.play video games B.sit in the front yard
C.learn to cook dinner D.play traditional games
58.The author was able to catch Susan because________.
A.the others ran too fast B.the author was good at running
C.Susan gave her a chance D.Susan wanted to chase others
59.What can be inferred from the passage
A.The author is grateful for hat Susan did to her.
B.The author cant meet Susan any more.
C.The author urges others to love their family.
D.The author believes the world will become a big family
60.What could be the best title of the passage
A.A memory of my childhood. B.Sharing of goodness unites us.
C.Kindness brightens our life. D.A good deed is invaluable.
【答案】57.D 58.C 59.A 60.B
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文中作者回忆了在没有数码产品的年代,亲人之间真挚的爱护和关心。
57.细节理解题。根据文章中的Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game.(那个年代没有视频游戏,智能电话和自动玩具,因此我们常常玩一个老游戏)可知,父母聊天时孩子们在玩老游戏。D. play traditional games(玩传统游戏)符合题意。故选D项。
58.推理判断题。根据文章第二段的She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her.(她开始跑,但明显比之前跑得慢,我很容易赶上并抓住了她)可知,Susan原本可以跑快的,为了让作者抓住她才减速,所以可以推出她是故意让作者抓住的。C. Susan gave her a chance(苏珊给她机会)符合以上说法。故选C项。
59.推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段的Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy.(现在我明白了她那天的善举是如何把我从悲伤中拯救出来,又让我重新回到快乐之中)作者把Susan当时的行为称为“act of kindness”可知,作者对Susan是心怀感激的。故选A项。
60.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段的Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.(也许现在是我们开始以这种方式对待彼此的时候了,也许现在是我们毫无畏惧地与每个人分享我们的爱,善良,笑声和我们的欢乐的时候了,也许是时候让这个世界永远聚在一起,成为一个大家庭了)可知,作者主要想表达分享爱,善良,真诚对待他人可以大家真正的成为一体。B. Sharing of goodness unites us(分享善良使我们团聚)可以作为本篇标题,概括文章大意。故选B项。

Ways to Get Your Kids into Nature
Being in nature for kids has tremendous health benefits. There are many ways you can incorporate nature into your children’s lives, even if you live in the city.
Inspire curiosity by being curious yourself. A parent’s excitement can be spread to the children, and when you show respect for nature, your children follow suit. 61 . “I don’t know! Let’s find out together.” is a wonderful way to get the ball rolling. Be open to a mutual adventure and allow your curious inner child to come out while you explore nature with your children.
62 . If you have to carpool(拼车) in the morning, turn off the devices instead and encourage your children to look out of the window. The early morning fall skies are beautiful with color and migrating birds. After all, even views of nature from the car window are calming and beneficial.
Stop thinking about nature time as leisure time. Time in nature is an essential investment in your children’s health and well being. If you view nature time as essential to good health, you will be more likely to engage in it. 63 , nurturing creativity and wonder is part of your responsibility as parents.
Look at the stars. Visit your local observatory, and then drive out of the city some morning or evening for your own stargazing(天体观察) with a blanket and telescope. Observing the stars offers a deeper and wider understanding of the universe. 64 .
Plant a small garden. 65 . Bean and pea plants grow quickly and can be eaten when mature, so teach your children about food and the wonder of growth.
A.Limit electronic devices while driving
B.Encourage questions you don’t know the answers to
C.If you want to raise your healthy, well balanced children
D.If you have the space, help your children plant a few vegetables
E.It will teach teamwork, pride in the community, and family togetherness
F.If your child is interested, encourage him to get involved in the community
G.Allow yourself to think about it, and talk to your children about that wonder
【答案】61.B 62.A 63.C 64.G 65.D
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了让孩子融入自然的一些方法。
61.由后一句“‘I don’t know! Let’s find out together.’ is a wonderful way to get the ball rolling.”可知,“我不知道!让我们一起找到答案”这是一个非常棒的可以让活动继续下去的方式。此处表示鼓励孩子一起探索你自己也不知道答案的问题,从而引起好奇心。选项B表达的是“鼓励你不知道答案的问题”,选项B中的“不知道答案的问题”和后一句中的““我不知道!让我们一起找到答案””相呼应,符合语境。故选B。
62.由后一句“If you have to carpool(拼车) in the morning, turn off the devices instead and encourage your children to look out of the window.”可知,如果你必须在早上拼车,那么关掉电子设备,然后鼓励你的孩子们往窗外看看。由此可见开车时关掉电子设备,多看看窗外是一种与自然接触的方式。选项A表达的是“开车的时候限制电子设备”,和后一句中的“关掉电子设备”相呼应。故选A。
63.由空格前两句“Time in nature is an essential investment in your children’s health and well being.”可知,在自然的时间是对你孩子健康和幸福的必要投资。选项C表达的是“如果你想要培养出健康而且明智的孩子”,是对空格前两句中的“对孩子健康和幸福的必要投资”的承接。故选C。
64.由空格前一句“Observing the stars offers a deeper and wider understanding of the universe.”可知,观察星空能够加深对宇宙的理解。选项G表达的是“允许你自己去思考它,并且和你的孩子们谈论那种神奇”,选项G种的“那种神奇”指代的是前一句表达的“对宇宙的理解”,和前一句相呼应。故选G。
65.由前一句“Plant a small garden.”和后一句“Bean and pea plants grow quickly and can be eaten when mature, so teach your children about food and the wonder of growth.”可知,开辟一个小菜园。种植豆角和豌豆可以快速生长,当成熟的时候就可以食用,这样可以教会你的孩子们关于食物和生长的奇迹。选项D表达的是“如果你有空间,帮助你的孩子们种一些蔬菜”,是对前一句“开辟小菜园”的承接,并对后一句“种植豆角和豌豆”的呼应。故选D。

语法填空
81.Although they could never have met, there are common (theme) in their works, said Paul Edmondson, head of research for the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
【答案】themes
【详解】考查名词的数。句意:莎士比亚故居信托基金会的研究主管Paul Edmondson说,尽管他们从未见过面,但他们的作品中都有共同的主题。本句为“there be”句型,根据be动词“are”可判断,本句主语为名词的复数形式。故填themes。
82.According to the theory, (spend) 20 minutes in a park daily helps to reduce stress, regardless of people exercise in it or simply take a walk.
【答案】 spending whether
【详解】考查非谓语动词以及宾语从句。句意:根据这一理论,无论人们是在公园里锻炼还是只是散步,每天在公园里待20分钟都有助于减轻压力。第一个空处需要动名词作主语。第二个空处需要引导介词of的宾语从句,根据空后的or可知,空处需要whether引导该从句,构成“whether…or…”的结构,意为“无论是……还是……”,符合语境。故填①spending②whether。
83.Tang and Shakespeare were contemporaries and both died in 1616. Although they could never have met, there are common (theme) in their works, said Paul Edmondson, head of research for the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
【答案】themes
【详解】考查名词的数。句意:唐和莎士比亚是同时代的人,都死于1616年。莎士比亚出生地信托基金会的研究主管保罗·埃德蒙森说,尽管他们可能从未见过面,但他们的作品中有一些共同的主题。本句为“there be”句型,根据be动词are可判断,本句主语为名词的复数形式,故用theme“主题”的复数形式。故填themes。
84.The president’s (attend) the meeting himself gave them a great deal of encouragement.
【答案】attending
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:总统亲自出席会议给了他们很大的鼓励。这里The president’s attending the meeting构成动名词复合结构作主语。根据句意,故填attending。
85.In ancient China, the currency consisted mainly of precious metals, such as gold, silver and copper, so (carry) a large quantity of cash was not only a heavy burden but could also put the owner in danger as robberies quite often happened along the way.
【答案】carrying
【详解】考查动名词。句意:在中国古代,货币主要由金、银、铜等贵金属组成,因此携带大量现金不仅是一种沉重的负担,而且还会使所有者处于危险之中,因为途中经常发生抢劫。分析句子结合句意可知,此处缺少主语,主语为“携带大量现金”,应用动名词作主语。故填carrying。
86.He stopped and watched with (amuse) to see the child so absorbed.
【答案】amusement
【详解】考查名词。句意:他停下来,看着孩子如此专注,觉得很有趣。介词with后接名词形式。amuse的名词为amusement,为“乐趣,娱乐”之意,为不可数名词。故填amusement。
87.Earning a degree online can be an enjoyable and (reward) experience.
【答案】rewarding
【详解】考查形容词。句意:在线获得学位可能是一种愉快且有价值的经历。空白处在句子中作定语修饰名词experience,and连接两个并列的成分,前面是形容词enjoyable,此处也需要一个形容词,reward的形容词形式rewarding 表示“有价值的;有益的”,故填rewarding 。
88.London Transport has announced a (prohibit) on smoking on buses.
【答案】prohibition
【详解】考查名词。句意:伦敦交通局宣布禁止在公共汽车上吸烟。根据空前冠词a可知,此处为名词prohibition“禁止”作宾语成分,满足句意要求。故填prohibition。
89.An even greener alternative recently (adopt) is using drones to trace flashy patterns in the sky. The future of fireworks, like so much else, may be robotic.
【答案】adopted
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:最近采用的一种更环保的替代方案是使用无人机追踪天空中的闪光图案。像其他东西一样,烟花的未来可能是机械的。本句的谓语是is,所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语alternative和adopt之间是动宾关系,且recently表明动作已经发生,所以应用过去分词,作后置定语。故填adopted。
90.It was dark at that moment but some children around instead of going home. (wander)
【答案】were wandering
【详解】考查谓语动词。句意:那时天已经黑了,但是一些孩子没有回家,而是在四处游荡。表示转折意义的but连接两个句子,所以此空为谓语动词,根据时间状语at that moment可知,此处应使用过去进行时,主语some children与wander之间为主动关系,且主语为名词复数。故填were wandering。
91. (log) new species will improve our understanding of life on the earth.
【答案】Logging
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:记录新物种将提高我们对地球上生命的理解。本句谓语为will improve,此处为非谓语动词,用log“记录”的动名词,作主语,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Logging。
92.Much to her (amuse), the actor’s wig fell off.
【答案】amusement
【详解】考查名词。句意:让她感到好笑的是,那位演员的假发掉了下来。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作宾语,使用名词,amuse为动词,其名词为:amusement,故填amusement。

【答案】Being raised
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:在一个电影爱好者的家庭中长大,让我从小就有很多机会看电影,尤其是香港电影。分析句子可知,空处和空后的in a family of movie lovers搭配,作句子的主语,是非谓语动词,且此处介绍的是一件已知的事情,因此应用raise的动名词形式,因raise“抚养,养育”和隐藏的逻辑主语I之间是被动关系,应用动名词的被动语态,句首单词的首字母需大写。故填Being raised。
94.Much to his surprise, he invited only ten friends to his party, but (two) as many came.
【答案】twice
【详解】考查倍数表达法。句意:令他吃惊的是,他只邀请了十个朋友参加他的聚会,但来的朋友却多了一倍。根据“only ten friends”和“as many”可推知,此处用“倍数+as+adj./adv.的原级+as+B”的倍数表达法表示“(十个朋友的)两倍”,空处应用twice,意为“两倍”。故填twice。
95.The librarian was (bless) with a happy childhood, one that most people would want to have.
【答案】blessed
【详解】考查形容词。句意:这位图书管理员有幸拥有一个大多数人都想拥有的快乐童年。分析句子结构可知,此处应为形容词作表语,bless的形容词为blessed意为“有福的”,be blessed with意为“在……方面有福”符合句意。故填blessed。

One good example of this is the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Australia, 99 was created in 1975 to protect the reef from overdevelopment and fishing. Stretching over 2, 300 kilometres, the Great Barrier Reef 100 (consider) one of the natural wonders of the world. As the largest structure in the world 101 (make) by living creatures, it is also home to 102 (vary) of tropical wildlife.

【答案】
96.without 97.to be constructed 98.while/but 99.which 100.is considered 101.made 102.varieties 103.an 104.Unfortunately 105.has experienced
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了保护自然区域对于发现和欣赏自然美景的重要性,以及国家公园在保护自然中的重要作用。
96.考查介词。句意:当然,如果没有自然保护区,这一切都不会是可能的。根据“none of this would be possible”可推知,句中假设了没有自然保护区的情况,用介词without(没有)构成介词短语,作条件状语。故填without。
97.考查非谓语动词。句意:一些国家公园允许在公园内建造酒店和休闲区,而大多数公园根本不允许任何开发。allow sb./sth. to do是固定搭配,意为“允许某人/物去做某事”,不定式作宾语补足语,又因construct与其逻辑主语things like hotels and recreation areas之间是被动关系,所以应用不定式的被动式to be constructed。故填to be constructed。
98.考查连词。句意:一些国家公园允许在公园内建造酒店和休闲区,而大多数公园根本不允许任何开发。空格前后为两个分句,根据句意,“一些国家公园允许在公园内建造酒店和休闲区”和“大多数公园根本不允许任何开发”之间有对比或转折关系,可用并列连词while或者but连接两个句子。故填while/but。
99.考查定语从句。句意:澳大利亚的大堡礁海洋公园就是一个很好的例子,该公园建于1975年,旨在保护珊瑚礁免受过度开发和捕捞。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park,先行词指物,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语,应使用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
100.考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:绵延2300多公里的大堡礁被认为是世界自然奇观之一。consider(认为)是句中谓语动词,与主语the Great Barrier Reef之间是被动关系,描述客观事实,应使用一般现在时态,又因主语是专有名词,谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式。综上,谓语应用一般现在时的被动语态,第三人称单数形式。故填is considered。
101.考查非谓语动词。句意:作为世界上最大的生物结构,它也是各种热带野生动物的家园。句中已有be动词is,make(制作,建造))是非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语the largest structure之间是被动关系,用过去分词形式表被动。故填made。
102.考查名词。句意:作为世界上最大的生物结构,它也是各种热带野生动物的家园。varieties of...是固定短语,意为“各种各样的”。故填varieties。
103.考查冠词。句意:由于大堡礁就在水面以下,它成为了一个观赏大自然的好地方,每年都吸引着数百万人去那里旅游。可数名词place在句中表示“一个地方”,泛指,excellent发音以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
104.考查副词。句意:不幸的是,近年来大堡礁经历了海洋温度上升,这是对珊瑚礁最大的威胁,导致彩色珊瑚礁变灰,有些甚至死亡。提示词作评注性状语,用副词,结合句中“causing the colorful reefs to turn grey and some even to die”可知,这是不幸的情况,用反义副词unfortunately作状语,意为“不幸地,遗憾地”;句首单词首字母大写。故填Unfortunately。
105.考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:不幸的是,近年来大堡礁经历了海洋温度上升,这是对珊瑚礁最大的威胁,导致彩色珊瑚礁变灰,有些甚至死亡。experience(经历)是句中谓语动词,与主语the Great Barrier Reef 之间是主动关系,句中有时间状语in recent years,表示从过去持续到现在的行为,应使用现在完成时态,又因主语是专有名词,谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式。综上,谓语应用现在完成时的主动语态,第三人称单数形式。故填has experienced。

When I was a boy, our extended, immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt’s tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room to talk and catch up on each other' s lives. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.
Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, I got caught first and couldn't catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, and said, "I'm it! You'd better run!" I ran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.
Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didn't matter that we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.
In her wonderful book: Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, "We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big. beautiful family." Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.

A.play video games B.sit in the front yard

58.The author was able to catch Susan because________.
A.the others ran too fast B.the author was good at running

B.The author cant meet Susan any more.
C.The author urges others to love their family.
D.The author believes the world will become a big family
60.What could be the best title of the passage

Ways to Get Your Kids into Nature
Being in nature for kids has tremendous health benefits. There are many ways you can incorporate nature into your children’s lives, even if you live in the city.
Inspire curiosity by being curious yourself. A parent’s excitement can be spread to the children, and when you show respect for nature, your children follow suit. 61 . “I don’t know! Let’s find out together.” is a wonderful way to get the ball rolling. Be open to a mutual adventure and allow your curious inner child to come out while you explore nature with your children.
62 . If you have to carpool(拼车) in the morning, turn off the devices instead and encourage your children to look out of the window. The early morning fall skies are beautiful with color and migrating birds. After all, even views of nature from the car window are calming and beneficial.
Stop thinking about nature time as leisure time. Time in nature is an essential investment in your children’s health and well being. If you view nature time as essential to good health, you will be more likely to engage in it. 63 , nurturing creativity and wonder is part of your responsibility as parents.
Look at the stars. Visit your local observatory, and then drive out of the city some morning or evening for your own stargazing(天体观察) with a blanket and telescope. Observing the stars offers a deeper and wider understanding of the universe. 64 .
Plant a small garden. 65 . Bean and pea plants grow quickly and can be eaten when mature, so teach your children about food and the wonder of growth.

【详解】考查短语、时态和非谓语动词。“运动员”翻译为athlete;“……的方法”用短语approach to,to为介词,后接动名词形式;“保持最佳状态”翻译为maintain top form;“包括”用动词form;“均衡饮食”翻译为 balanced diet;“规律锻炼”翻译为 regular exercise;“充足休息”翻译为enough rest。陈述客观事实,用一般现在时。主语是The athlete’s approach,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故翻译为The athlete’s approach to maintaining top form includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, and enough rest.
58.她没有像大多数的女孩那样走上婚姻这一传统道路,而是选择了学医。
【答案】Instead of following the traditional path of marriage like the majority of girls, she chose to study medicine.
【详解】考查固定搭配、非谓语动词、形容词、名词、时态。表示“而不是”用instead of。表示“跟随,遵循”用follow,用动名词形式,作Instead of的宾语。表示“传统的”用形容词traditional,作前置定语,修饰名词“道路”,表示“道路”用名词path,此处为特指,path前加the。表示“婚姻”用名词marriage,the traditional path of marriage作following的宾语。表示“像”用介词like。表示“大多数”用固定搭配the majority of。表示“女孩”用girl,根据“大多数的女孩”可知,用复数形式girls。表示“她”用she,作主语。表示“选择”用choose,本句描述过去的动作,故时态用一般过去时,谓语用过去式chose,choose to do sth. (选择做某事)。表示“学习”用study,用不定式,作chose的宾语。表示“医学”用medicine,作study的宾语。故翻译为Instead of following the traditional path of marriage like the majority of girls, she chose to study medicine.
59.在做评论前,你最好想清楚要说什么。(prior to)
【答案】Prior to making comments, you’d better think twice about what to say.
【详解】考查固定短语,动名词,名词,情态动词,介词,疑问词,动词不定式。表示“在……”之前用prior to,此处的to为介词,其后加动名词;“评论”为comment;“作出评论”为make comments,所以前面翻译为Prior to making comments。表示“最好要做某事”为had better do sth.,“思考”为think,“想清楚”为think twice;“什么”用what,what+to do表示“要做什么”;“关于”用about,所以后半句翻译为you’d better think twice about what to say。故答案为Prior to making comments, you’d better think twice about what to say.
60.让你找到工作的是智商,但让你升职的是情商。(用强调句型)
【答案】It is IQ that gets you employed, but it is EQ that gets you promoted.
【详解】考查强调句型、名词和动词。句子叙述客观事实,时态宜用一般现在时。结合题干要求,可用强调句型It is... that...来分别强调两个主语“智商”和“情商”。第一句中被强调的主语“智商”IQ,为单数,“让你找到工作”可理解为“让你被雇佣”,可用动词短语get you employed,过去分词employed表被动意义,主语是单数,谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式gets;第二句中被强调的主语“智商”EQ,为单数,“让你升职”即“让你被晋升”,可用动词短语get you promoted,过去分词promoted表被动意义,主语是单数,谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式gets;两个句子之间用意为“但(是)”的连词but连接。故翻译为It is IQ that gets you employed, but it is EQ that gets you promoted.

People often say your feelings are “written all over your face” because our facial expressions are a main way we communicate emotions. Now according to a recent research led by Patty Van Cappellen of Duke University, besides our faces, our body posture (姿势) also plays a role.
In one study, Van Cappellen and her colleagues asked a group of participants to show four faceless mannequins (人体模型) in postures that represented four different emotions: dominance (支配), joy, hope and respect. The research assistants then looked at photos of the mannequins that participants had created and assessed their head positions, arm positions, and degrees of expansiveness — how much space they took up by standing straight or opening up different parts of their bodies. Then, the researchers compared these positions to the feelings they supposedly expressed.
Van Cappellen found that people viewed an expansive posture as representing dominance. But joy and respect were also represented by expansive postures, with hope involving the least expansive posture. “We’re finding that positive emotions are also marked by expansiveness — especially joy,” she says.
Besides, arm and head positions also mattered. For example, joyful postures were described by arms raised above the head, while respectful postures showed hands touching the face. Dominant postures, on the other hand, tended to show arms akimbo (双手叉腰) with the head facing forward.
To know if other people seeing the mannequins could recognize the feelings being expressed by different postures, Van Cappellen had a new group of participants look at photos of mannequins posed in many different ways. The participants found that expansive postures with arms held high represented positive emotion — with arms akimbo representing dominance and negative emotion.
Her research suggests that our body posture helps express our emotions and may help us feel certain emotions, too. This could be consequential — not just in the lab, but in real life, where it’s useful to know how we and other people are feeling in a certain situation.
61.Which emotion is most probably expressed by the least expansive posture
A.Dominance. B.Joy. C.Hope. D.Respect.
62.What does a man tend to do when he feels happy according to the text
A.Hold his arms high. B.Touch his face.
C.Have his arms crossed. D.Shake his head.
63.Why did Van Cappellen have new participants look at the photos of mannequins
A.To find why the participants showed the different feelings.
B.To know how people communicate with facial expressions.
C.To figure out what different body postures may represent.
D.To see if others can feel the same about the body postures.
64.What does the underlined word “consequential” in the last paragraph probably mean
A.Embarrassing. B.Important. C.Flexible. D.Unusual.
【答案】61.C 62.A 63.D 64.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了除了面部表情,我们的身体姿势也在情感表达中扮演重要角色。
61.细节理解题。根据第三段“Van Cappellen found that people viewed an expansive posture as representing dominance. But joy and respect were also represented by expansive postures, with hope involving the least expansive posture. “We’re finding that positive emotions are also marked by expansiveness — especially joy,” she says.(范·卡佩伦发现,人们认为舒展的姿势代表着支配地位。但喜悦和尊重也表现在舒展的姿势上,而希望则表现在最不舒展的姿势上。“我们发现,积极的情绪也以广泛性为特征——尤其是快乐,”她说)”可知,表达希望之感时,人的身体伸展的空间最小。故选C项。
62.细节理解题,根据第四段“Besides, arm and head positions also mattered. For example, joyful postures were described by arms raised above the head, while respectful postures showed hands touching the face. Dominant postures, on the other hand, tended to show arms akimbo (双手叉腰) with the head facing forward.(此外,手臂和头的位置也很重要。例如,快乐的姿势被描述为手臂举过头顶,而恭敬的姿势则是双手触摸脸部。另一方面,优势姿势倾向于双臂叉腰,头部朝前)”可知,当一个人感到快乐时,倾向于把手高高举起。故选A项。
63.细节理解题。根据第五段“To know if other people seeing the mannequins could recognize the feelings being expressed by different postures, Van Cappellen had a new group of participants look at photos of mannequins posed in many different ways. The participants found that expansive postures with arms held high represented positive emotion — with arms akimbo representing dominance and negative emotion.(为了了解其他人看到人体模型是否能识别出不同姿势所表达的情感,范·卡佩伦让一组新的参与者看不同姿势的人体模型的照片。参与者发现手臂高举的伸展姿势代表积极的情绪,手臂叉腰的姿势代表支配和消极的情绪)”可知,Van Cappellen让新的参与者观看人体模型照片是想知晓其他人能否对肢体语言感同身受。故选D项。
64.词句猜测题。根据后文“where it’s useful to know how we and other people are feeling in a certain situation.(了解我们和其他人在特定情况下的感受是很有用的)”可知,这种技能是有用的,也就是重要的。由此推知,consequential意为“重要的”,和B项意思相近。故选B项。
七选五
If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away. 65 Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile. Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉). Try to find things that really make you happy or laugh and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
66 . Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.
Use eye contact. When you do end up talking with someone, be sure to maintain eye contact. Avoiding eye contact makes you appear untrustworthy or disinterested. If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes. 67
Avoid nervous habits. Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it. 68 . Don’t play with your pen or the change in your pocket. Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture (做手势) when making conversation.
69 . Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.
Although it may feel unnatural at first, with time you should start to feel more open and confident as a result of changing your body language.
A.Avoid blocks
B.Use objects on hand
C.They won’t be able to tell the difference
D.Apart from body language, always be positive
E.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair
F.How can you read different types of body language properly
G.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable
【答案】65.G 66.A 67.C 68.E 69.D

65.根据上文“If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away.(如果你在社交场合很难结识新朋友或加入对话,可能是你的肢体语言向别人传达了远离的信息)”可知,上文提出了在社交场合中肢体语言可能会给人留下不好的印象这一问题。下文“Below are some tips to get you started.(以下是一些让你开始的建议)”则提出了一些改善肢体语言的建议。G 选项“How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable(如何改善你的肢体语言,让自己看起来更平易近人)”位于段中,承上启下,既承接上文提到的肢体语言给人留下不好印象的问题,又引出下文改善肢体语言的建议。故选G。
66.根据下文“Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.(确保你没有用物品来遮住自己不被他人看到。在聚会上,把你的饮料放在你身边,而不是靠近你的胸部。在你和其他人之间放东西会让你显得有戒心和封闭)”可知下文说明在社交场合中要避免用物品隔开自己和他人,要保持开放的姿态。A 选项“Avoid blocks (避免阻隔)”位于段首,对下文起总结概括的作用,且与后文的“shield(遮住)”和“guarded and closed”相呼应。故选A。
67.根据上文“If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes.(如果直接的眼神交流感觉很难,试着一次只看一只眼睛,或者看一个人的眼睛之间的部分)”可知,上文建议在与人交谈时,如果感觉直接的眼神交流困难,可以采取的方式。C 选项“They won’t be able to tell the difference (他们不会看出区别的)”则说明即使没有直接的眼神交流,别人也不会察觉,与上文构成因果关系。故选C。
68.根据上文“Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it.(尽管你可能会紧张,但要避免随之而来的习惯)”可知上文提到要避免紧张时的习惯。E 选项“Stop touching your face or playing with your hair (停止触摸你的脸或玩弄你的头发)”是具体的紧张时的习惯,对上文起举例说明的作用。故选E。
69.根据下文“Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.(说别人的好话而不是刻薄的话。接近他人,包括那些似乎被忽视的人。做一个积极的人,你会吸引其他积极的人)”可知下文建议要做一个积极的人,多说别人的好话。D 选项“Apart from body language, always be positive (除了肢体语言,永远要积极)”位于段首,对下文起总结概括的作用,且positive与后文的nice和positive相呼应。故选D。

语篇填空
Different cultures communicate in very different ways. In Asia, people use lots of body language, facial expressions, and silence 100 (express) meaning. For instance, in Japan, it might be 101 (normal) viewed as rude to directly object to a statement. However, in the West, speaking directly is not only normal but valued. People place 102 (much) focus on the actual words being used than on cues (暗示) of body language.
Additionally, in China, it is common for someone to smile when they don’t understand something. This could be 103 (confuse) for a Westerner who might think this means the listener understands and agrees with 104 is being said.
Another communicative feature 105 is viewed differently across the world is interruptions (插嘴). In many 106 (part) of the West, interrupting another person when they are speaking is considered to be rude. However, in some African and Latin American countries, it is viewed as a means to join and actively participate in the conversation.
Even within 107 same continent (洲), cultures can vary from country to country. For example, in the UK, it is very common to say “please” and “thank you” to someone 108 (serve) you in a shop or restaurant, but in Spain, these expressions 109 (hear) much less often and are reserved more for requesting or receiving kindness.
【答案】
100.to express 101.normally 102.more 103.confusing 104.what 105.that/which 106.parts 107.the 108.serving 109.are heard
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是在交流中,不同的文化有着不同的沟通方式。
100.考查动词不定式。句意:在非语言交流方面,亚洲人使用各种肢体语言、面部表情和沉默来表达意思。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定用法“use sth. to do sth.”,其中不定式作目的状语,所以此处使用动词不定式形式。故填to express。
101.考查副词。句意:例如,在日本,直接反对一项声明通常会被视为粗鲁。分析句子结构可知,此处为副词作状语修饰动词,normal的副词为normally意为“通常”符合句意。故填normally。

103.考查形容词。句意:这可能会让西方人感到困惑,他们可能会认为这意味着听者理解并同意所说的话。分析句子结构可知,此处为形容词作表语,confuse的形容词confusing意为“令人困惑的”符合句意。故填confusing。
104.考查宾语从句。句意:这可能会让西方人感到困惑,他们可能会认为这意味着听者理解并同意所说的话。分析句子结构可知,此处为连接词引导的宾语从句作agree with的宾语,从句中缺少主语,指的是事情,所以此处使用连接代词what。故填what。
105.考查定语从句。句意:另一个在世界各地有不同看法的交际特征是插嘴。分析句子结构可知,此处为关系词引导的定语从句,从句中缺少主语,所以此处使用关系代词,先行词feature指的是事物,所以此处使用关系代词that或which。故填that或which。
106.考查名词复数。句意:在西方许多地方,打断别人说话被认为是粗鲁的。分析句子结构可知,此处为名词作宾语,空前有many修饰,所以此处使用名词复数。故填parts。
107.考查冠词。句意:即使在同一大洲,礼仪也会因文化而异。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定短语the same意为“同一,一样”符合句意。故填the。
108.考查现在分词。句意:例如,在英国,在商店或餐馆里,对为你服务的人说“请”和“谢谢”是很常见的,但在西班牙,这些词在日常环境中听到的频率要低得多,更多的是用于请求或接受善意。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作定语修饰someone,serve与someone之间为主动关系,所以此处使用现在分词形式。故填serving。
109.考查谓语动词。句意:例如,在英国,在商店或餐馆里,对为你服务的人说“请”和“谢谢”是很常见的,但在西班牙,这些词在日常环境中听到的频率要低得多,更多的是用于请求或接受善意。分析句子结构可知,此处为谓语动词,根据并列谓语are reserved可知,此处使用一般现在时,且hear与主语these expressions之间为被动关系,且主语为名词复数。故填are heard。
读后续写
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。
The Freshest Bakery was in a small town called Balminster. It made bread for supermarkets in a nearby city. The bakery had been there for a long time and most of the machines were old. The factory engineer, Frank, was good at maintaining (维修) the machines and most of the time there were no problems.
One Tuesday, Frank was finishing work. The manager came out of his office.
“You have a day off tomorrow,” he said to Frank.
“Yes!” smiled Frank. “My son is graduating from university! Tomorrow I will go to the graduation ceremony!” He planned to leave at 6 am and had enough time to drive there.
At 4:30 am the next morning, Frank got a phone call from the factory, asking him to repair the broken oven at once.
Oh no! thought Frank. He hoped he could fix it quickly. He took his suit to the factory, so he could drive from there to the university.
When he arrived at the factory, all the workers and the manager were waiting for him. “Thank you, Frank,” said the manager. “I know this is a big day for you, but we must bake the bread.”
Frank went to look at the big bread oven. Then he went back to the manager. “I can fix it, but it will take a long time. I will be too late for the graduation ceremony.”
The manager felt very bad. But Frank knew they had to make bread and get it to the supermarkets today, or the supermarkets would turn to a newer bakery. All the workers would lose their jobs.
Frank worked hard to fix the bread oven. At 7:00 am he finished, and the loaves of bread started rolling into the oven to be baked.
“We will be on time for our supermarket deliveries!” The manager was very happy. “You can go now,” he said to Frank. “Enjoy your son’s graduation.”
“It’s too late,” said Frank sadly. “I cannot drive there in time.”

Usually the workers talked a lot and laughed, but today, everyone was very quiet.

Paragraph 2:
“Fly to the university ” the manager remembered his old friend, a helicopter company manager.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Usually the workers talked a lot and laughed, but today, everyone was very quiet. They felt sorry that Frank was going to fail to meet his son on this special day because of the maintenance. They were so grateful for what Frank had done for them that they concentrated more attentively on their work than usual in order to make more delicious bread, for which the factory would win a better reputation and thus make a healthier profit. Meanwhile, though eager to be with his son, Frank attempted to keep calm as if it had been a common day to relieve his co-workers. The manager could really feel how Frank felt. He kept wondering what he could do for him. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him.
“Fly to the university ” the manager remembered his old friend, a helicopter company manager. Jumping with joy, he got in touch with his friend right away and succeeded in renting a helicopter, with which he could make Frank’s day. The workers were all relieved to see this surprise. With all the wishes from his co-workers, Frank managed to arrive at the university in time and spent great time with his son on this big day. After hearing what happened, “Dad, you really taught me a significant lesson that I’ll never forget today. You did right. You are my hero. I’ll always try to do something meaningful for others whenever I can.” the son said with pride.

阅读理解
People often say your feelings are “written all over your face” because our facial expressions are a main way we communicate emotions. Now according to a recent research led by Patty Van Cappellen of Duke University, besides our faces, our body posture (姿势) also plays a role.
In one study, Van Cappellen and her colleagues asked a group of participants to show four faceless mannequins (人体模型) in postures that represented four different emotions: dominance (支配), joy, hope and respect. The research assistants then looked at photos of the mannequins that participants had created and assessed their head positions, arm positions, and degrees of expansiveness — how much space they took up by standing straight or opening up different parts of their bodies. Then, the researchers compared these positions to the feelings they supposedly expressed.
Van Cappellen found that people viewed an expansive posture as representing dominance. But joy and respect were also represented by expansive postures, with hope involving the least expansive posture. “We’re finding that positive emotions are also marked by expansiveness — especially joy,” she says.
Besides, arm and head positions also mattered. For example, joyful postures were described by arms raised above the head, while respectful postures showed hands touching the face. Dominant postures, on the other hand, tended to show arms akimbo (双手叉腰) with the head facing forward.
To know if other people seeing the mannequins could recognize the feelings being expressed by different postures, Van Cappellen had a new group of participants look at photos of mannequins posed in many different ways. The participants found that expansive postures with arms held high represented positive emotion — with arms akimbo representing dominance and negative emotion.
Her research suggests that our body posture helps express our emotions and may help us feel certain emotions, too. This could be consequential — not just in the lab, but in real life, where it’s useful to know how we and other people are feeling in a certain situation.
61.Which emotion is most probably expressed by the least expansive posture
A.Dominance. B.Joy. C.Hope. D.Respect.
62.What does a man tend to do when he feels happy according to the text
A.Hold his arms high. B.Touch his face.
C.Have his arms crossed. D.Shake his head.
63.Why did Van Cappellen have new participants look at the photos of mannequins
A.To find why the participants showed the different feelings.
B.To know how people communicate with facial expressions.
C.To figure out what different body postures may represent.
D.To see if others can feel the same about the body postures.
64.What does the underlined word “consequential” in the last paragraph probably mean
A.Embarrassing. B.Important. C.Flexible. D.Unusual.

If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away. 65 Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile. Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉). Try to find things that really make you happy or laugh and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
66 . Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.
Use eye contact. When you do end up talking with someone, be sure to maintain eye contact. Avoiding eye contact makes you appear untrustworthy or disinterested. If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes. 67
Avoid nervous habits. Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it. 68 . Don’t play with your pen or the change in your pocket. Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture (做手势) when making conversation.
69 . Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.
Although it may feel unnatural at first, with time you should start to feel more open and confident as a result of changing your body language.
A.Avoid blocks
B.Use objects on hand
C.They won’t be able to tell the difference
D.Apart from body language, always be positive
E.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair
F.How can you read different types of body language properly
G.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable

语篇填空
Different cultures communicate in very different ways. In Asia, people use lots of body language, facial expressions, and silence 100 (express) meaning. For instance, in Japan, it might be 101 (normal) viewed as rude to directly object to a statement. However, in the West, speaking directly is not only normal but valued. People place 102 (much) focus on the actual words being used than on cues (暗示) of body language.
Additionally, in China, it is common for someone to smile when they don’t understand something. This could be 103 (confuse) for a Westerner who might think this means the listener understands and agrees with 104 is being said.
Another communicative feature 105 is viewed differently across the world is interruptions (插嘴). In many 106 (part) of the West, interrupting another person when they are speaking is considered to be rude. However, in some African and Latin American countries, it is viewed as a means to join and actively participate in the conversation.
Even within 107 same continent (洲), cultures can vary from country to country. For example, in the UK, it is very common to say “please” and “thank you” to someone 108 (serve) you in a shop or restaurant, but in Spain, these expressions 109 (hear) much less often and are reserved more for requesting or receiving kindness.
读后续写
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。
The Freshest Bakery was in a small town called Balminster. It made bread for supermarkets in a nearby city. The bakery had been there for a long time and most of the machines were old. The factory engineer, Frank, was good at maintaining (维修) the machines and most of the time there were no problems.
One Tuesday, Frank was finishing work. The manager came out of his office.
“You have a day off tomorrow,” he said to Frank.
“Yes!” smiled Frank. “My son is graduating from university! Tomorrow I will go to the graduation ceremony!” He planned to leave at 6 am and had enough time to drive there.
At 4:30 am the next morning, Frank got a phone call from the factory, asking him to repair the broken oven at once.
Oh no! thought Frank. He hoped he could fix it quickly. He took his suit to the factory, so he could drive from there to the university.
When he arrived at the factory, all the workers and the manager were waiting for him. “Thank you, Frank,” said the manager. “I know this is a big day for you, but we must bake the bread.”
Frank went to look at the big bread oven. Then he went back to the manager. “I can fix it, but it will take a long time. I will be too late for the graduation ceremony.”
The manager felt very bad. But Frank knew they had to make bread and get it to the supermarkets today, or the supermarkets would turn to a newer bakery. All the workers would lose their jobs.
Frank worked hard to fix the bread oven. At 7:00 am he finished, and the loaves of bread started rolling into the oven to be baked.
“We will be on time for our supermarket deliveries!” The manager was very happy. “You can go now,” he said to Frank. “Enjoy your son’s graduation.”
“It’s too late,” said Frank sadly. “I cannot drive there in time.”

完成句子
53.The new text (由……组成) three parts is hard to recite.
【答案】composed of/comprised of/consisting of
【详解】考查短语和非谓语动词。句意:这篇由三部分组成的文章很难背诵。“由……组成”可表达为be composed of/be comprised of,此处省略be用过去分词作后置定语;“由……组成”也可用consist of表达,该短语无被动,用现在分词作后置定语。故填composed of/comprised of/consisting of。
54.Increasing production costs will, (相应地,转而), lead to higher prices.
【答案】 in turn
【详解】考查介词短语。句意:生产成本的增加将反过来导致价格的上涨。根据句意及汉语提示可知,此处为介词短语in turn,故填①in;②turn。
55. (我注意到的事) when I played with it was that I would sneeze a lot and my arms became red.
【答案】What I noticed
【详解】考查主语从句和时态。句意:当我玩它的时候,我注意到我会经常打喷嚏,我的手臂也会变红。分析句子结构,空处在句中作主语,应为what引导的主语从句。从句主语“我”可表示为I,“注意到”可表示为notice,what在从句中作宾语。根据句中的played和句意,这里表示过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填What I noticed。
56.Maybe I can (说服你和我来)next year.
【答案】convince you to come with me
【详解】考查短语和动词。句意:也许我能说服你明年一起来。表示“说服某人做某事”用短语convince sb. to do sth.;表示“跟我来”用短语come with me,跟在动词不定式to后,空前为情态动词,所以空处用动词原形开头,根据汉语,故答案为:convince you to come with me。
57.My choice (基于假设) that house price would remain steady.
【答案】was based on the assumption
【详解】考查时态和名词做宾语。句意:我的选择是基于房价将保持稳定的假设。结合提示词及would判断主句用一般过去时,故用was based on(基于)。 assumption(假设)做介词on的宾语。故答案为was based on the assumption。

【答案】the widespread use of
【详解】考查名词短语。句意:昂贵的价格阻止了这种药物的广泛使用。分析句子,句中使用名词短语作宾语。根据汉语提示,表示“广泛的”用widespread;表示“……的广泛应用”用the widespread use of;故填the widespread use of。

62.令校长开心的是,自推行新教材以来,越来越多的学生对地理表现出兴趣。(introduce)
【答案】What delights the headmaster is that more and more students have shown/ expressed (an) interest in geography since the new textbooks were introduced.

63.谁能快速获得并准确分析目标客户的数据,谁就比对手有竞争优势,掌握先机,迅速脱颖而出。 (Whoever)
【答案】Whoever is able to get the data of the target customers quickly and analyze them accurately will gain a competitive advantage/edge over his rivals, seize/have the initiative and stand out rapidly.
【详解】考查主语从句、固定短语、时态。“whoever”表示“无论谁”,引导主语从句,“能够快速获得”翻译为“be able to get sth. quickly”,因主语从句表示的是一个客观情况,使用一般现在时,whoever作主语,be动词使用is;“目标客户的数据”翻译为“the data of the target customers”;“准确分析”翻译为“analyze sth. accurately”;“有竞争优势”翻译为“gain a competitive advantage/edge”,主句表示的是指向将来的动作,使用一般将来时,即will gain,“比……有优势”用“over”;“掌握先机”翻译为“seize/have the initiative”;“脱颖而出”翻译为“stand out”;“迅速”使用副词rapidly作状语。故整句话翻译为 Whoever is able to get the data of the target customers quickly and analyze them accurately will gain a competitive advantage/edge over his rivals, seize/have the initiative and stand out rapidly。
64.你们公司有必要开始认真开拓市场了。(essential; get down)
【答案】It is essential that your company (should) get down to expanding the market.
【详解】考查形容词和动词短语。句子陈述现在的事实和状态,应用一般现在时,“有必要”essential,这句话应用It is essential that...的句型,用来表达“……是非常必要的”,其中it 是形式主语,真正的主语是 that引导的从句,这个从句应用虚拟语气,即should加动词原形,should可省略,该句型位于句首,首字母大写,从句主语“你们公司”your company,从句谓语“开始认真做某事”get down to doing something,“开拓市场”expand the market作to的宾语,应用动名词形式。故翻译为It is essential that your company (should) get down to expanding the market.
65.无论他有多么不愿意承认,凌乱的生活环境是他们家庭矛盾的根源。(however)
【答案】However much he hates to admit it, the messy living conditions is the root cause of their family conflicts.
【详解】考查状语从句,时态和短语。“无论他有多么不愿意承认”是状语,结合提示词用However引导让步状语从句,However修饰状语much,“不愿意承认”可译为hate to admit it,根据语境用一般现在时,主句主语“凌乱的生活环境”译为the messy living conditions,“他们家庭矛盾”译为their family conflicts,“……的根源”译为the root of,结合主谓一致,故译为However much he hates to admit it, the messy living conditions is the root cause of their family conflicts.
66.钱学森与大多数工程师不同之处在于他不断地渴望创新和实验。(使用主语从句翻译)
【答案】What sets Qian Xuesen apart from most engineers is his constant desire to innovate and experiment.
【详解】考查主语从句、动词短语、形容词和名词。根据句意,该句描述的为客观事实,所以使用一般现在时,表示“使……不同于……”应为set…apart from…,根据提示,表示“钱学森与大多数工程师不同之处”应为主语从句,从句中缺少主语,所以使用连接代词what引导主语从句作主语,位于句首,what的首字母需大写,谓语动词应为sets,“钱学森”应为Qian Xuesen作sets的宾语,“大多数工程师”应为most engineers作from的宾语,所以主语从句应译为What sets Qian Xuesen apart from most engineers;表示“在于”为be动词,主语从句作主语,且用于一般现在时,所以谓语动词为is,表示“不断的”应为constant作定语修饰名词“渴望”,“渴望”应为名词desire,表示“创新和实验”应为innovate and experiment作定语修饰名词desire,根据desire to do可知,此处应使用动词不定式形式。故翻译为What sets Qian Xuesen apart from most engineers is his constant desire to innovate and experiment.
阅读理解
Why do farmers grow crops outside in fields when we can arrange them vertically (垂直地) The idea of vertical farming was first proposed in 1999. It was seen as a way to save space, reduce air miles and transform old and abandoned buildings, like warehouses. In 2021, Fortune Business Insights valued the global vertical farming market at 3.47 billion dollars. Now, however, this industry is under threat, partly due to rising energy costs.
According to the magazine Science Focus, vertical farming gives ten times the yield (产量) of conventional outdoor farming. However, in order for crops to grow using this method, plants are placed in a controlled environment, grown not under the Sun, but under LED lights and watered with recycled water pumped on a closed-loop system (闭环系统).
Unfortunately, energy prices have risen across the globe. Therefore, this reliance on electricity has meant the last few years have not been easy for the industry. Cindy van Rijswick, from the Dutch research firm RaboResearch, has estimated that operational costs for a vertical farm are around 15% higher now compared to 18 months ago. Infarm, Europe’s largest vertical farming company, made around500 employees redundant (被裁员的) in November 2022 because they needed to downsize. They blamed higher operating costs due to energy increases as one reason for the layoffs.
Another issue related to the cost-of -living crisis and affecting vertical farming is the type of produce grown. This includes herbs such as basil, as well as salad leaves and leafy pared to traditionally farmed plants, like onions and carrots, these products tend to be more expensive, which could lead to reduced demand as consumers become more cautious about their spending.
So, it seems that a future with food grown under LED lights is looking less and less bright.
67.What is the feature of vertical farming
A.Saving urban land and achieving zero emissions.
B.Demanding highly technical and complex control.
C.High energy consumption and low output value.
D.Making full use of sunlight and water resources.
68.How does the author develop his idea in Paragraph 3
A.By making assumptions.
B.By criticizing a typical behaviour.
C.By listing specific data and facts.
D.By referring to a social phenomenon.
69.What can we infer from the text
A.Vertical farming avoids climate and disaster impacts.
B.Vertical farming costs jumped due to higher energy prices.
C.Vertical farming grows high-value, cost-effective produce.
D.High yield protects vertical farming from market competition.
70.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Is This the End of Vertical Farming B.Is Vertical Farming Highly Efficient
C.Challenges Industrial Agriculture Faces D.New Trends in Vertical Agriculture
【答案】67.B 68.C 69.B 70.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕垂直农业这一新兴农业形式进行了深入的探讨,介绍了其背景、特点、市场价值,以及当前面临的挑战,特别是能源成本上升对其造成的影响。
67.细节理解题。根据第二段“However, in order for crops to grow using this method, plants are placed in a controlled environment, grown not under the Sun, but under LED lights and watered with recycled water pumped on a closed-loop system ( 闭环系统 ).(然而,为了用这种方法种植作物,植物被放置在一个受控的环境中,不是在阳光下生长,而是在LED灯下生长,并用闭环系统泵送的循环水浇灌。)”可知,垂直农业点要求高技术和复杂的控制。故选B项。
68.推理判断题。根据第三段“Unfortunately, energy prices have risen across the globe. Therefore, this reliance on electricity has meant the last few years have not been easy for the industry. Cindy van Rijswick, from the Dutch research firm RaboResearch, has estimated that operational costs for a vertical farm are around 15% higher now compared to 18 months ago. Infarm, Europe’s largest vertical farming company, made around500 employees redundant (被裁员的) in November 2022 because they needed to downsize. They blamed higher operating costs due to energy increases as one reason for the layoffs.(不幸的是,全球能源价格都在上涨。因此,对电力的依赖意味着过去几年对该行业来说并不容易。荷兰研究公司RaboResearch的辛迪·范·瑞斯维克(Cindy van Rijswick)估计,与18个月前相比,垂直农场的运营成本现在高出了15%左右。欧洲最大的垂直农业公司Infarm在2022年11月裁员约500人,因为他们需要缩小规模。他们认为,能源价格上涨导致的运营成本上升是裁员的原因之一)”可推知,本段主要通过列举具体的数据和事实来阐述作者的观点,比如全球能源价格上涨,以及Infarm公司裁员等实际情况,从而说明垂直农业面临的挑战。故选C项。
69.推理判断题。根据第三段“Unfortunately, energy prices have risen across the globe. Therefore, this reliance on electricity has meant the last few years have not been easy for the industry. Cindy van Rijswick, from the Dutch research firm RaboResearch, has estimated that operational costs for a vertical farm are around 15% higher now compared to 18 months ago. Infarm, Europe’s largest vertical farming company, made around500 employees redundant (被裁员的) in November 2022 because they needed to downsize. They blamed higher operating costs due to energy increases as one reason for the layoffs.(不幸的是,全球能源价格都在上涨。因此,对电力的依赖意味着过去几年对该行业来说并不容易。荷兰研究公司RaboResearch的辛迪·范·瑞斯维克(Cindy van Rijswick)估计,与18个月前相比,垂直农场的运营成本现在高出了15%左右。欧洲最大的垂直农业公司Infarm在2022年11月裁员约500人,因为他们需要缩小规模。他们认为,能源价格上涨导致的运营成本上升是裁员的原因之一)”可知,全球能源价格上涨,这导致垂直农业成本大幅增加,同时指出Infarm公司因为运营成本上升而进行裁员。故选B项。
70.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Why do farmers grow crops outside in fields when we can arrange them vertically (垂直地) The idea of vertical farming was first proposed in 1999. It was seen as a way to save space, reduce air miles and transform old and abandoned buildings, like warehouses. In 2021, Fortune Business Insights valued the global vertical farming market at 3.47 billion dollars. Now, however, this industry is under threat, partly due to rising energy costs.(既然可以垂直种植,为什么农民还要在室外种植呢 垂直农业的想法最早是在1999年提出的。它被视为一种节省空间、减少飞行里程、改造仓库等旧建筑和废弃建筑的方法。2021年,《财富商业洞察》对全球垂直农业市场的估值为34.7亿美元。然而,现在这个行业正面临威胁,部分原因是能源成本上升)”以及纵观全文可知,文章主要讨论了垂直农业面临的挑战和困境,特别是能源成本上升对垂直农业的影响,以及消费者对高成本产品的谨慎态度。由此可知,A项“Is This the End of Vertical Farming (这是垂直农业的终结吗?)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选A项。
七选五
Einstein’s Opinions on Creative Thinking
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” said Albert Einstein, one of the greatest physicists and an amateur pianist and violinist.
For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics. 71 “All great achievements of science must start from intuitive (直觉的) knowledge. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”
72 Surprisingly, it wasn’t the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed. If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art. 73 That’s why he said that great scientists were also artists.
74 “If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.” Music provided Einstein with a connection between time and space, which both combine spatial (空间的) and structural aspects. “The theory of relativity occurred to me by intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition,” said Einstein. “My parents had me study the violin from the time I was six. 75 ”
A.But how did art differ from science for Einstein
B.Instead, it came from intrusion (直觉) and inspiration.
C.My new discovery is the result of musical insight.
D.There is no doubt that my theory was a great breakthrough then.
E.Einstein himself worked intuitively and expressed himself logically.
F.Einstein also owed his scientific insight and intuition mainly to music.
G.For Einstein, it was the humanities that mainly contributed to his achievements.
【答案】71.B 72.A 73.E 74.F 75.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了爱因斯坦关于创造性思维的观点。
71.上文“For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics. (对爱因斯坦来说,洞察力并非来自逻辑或数学)”并结合后文““All great achievements of science must start from intuitive (直觉的) knowledge. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”(“一切伟大的科学成就都必须从直觉知识开始。想象力比知识更重要。”)”可知,空处顺接前文,说明爱因斯坦认为洞察力应来自于直觉。B项“相反,它来自直觉和灵感。”符合语境。故选B。
72.下文“Surprisingly, it wasn’t the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed. (令人惊讶的是,决定某件事是艺术还是科学的不是一个想法的内容或主题,而是这个想法是如何表达的)”说明决定某件事是艺术还是科学是根据想法是如何表达的。空处引出了下文关于艺术和科学的区别的论述。A项中“art differ from science”和下文的“whether something was art or science”相呼应,而A项的这个问题“但对爱因斯坦来说,艺术和科学有何不同?”正好引出本段的主题。故选A。
73.上文“If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art.(如果所看到和经历的是用逻辑的语言描述的,那么这就是科学。如果它被直观地传达和识别,那么它就是艺术)”说明艺术和科学的不同。空处顺接上文,和下文形成因果关系。E项中的“worked intuitively and expressed himself logically” 和上文“看到和经历的是用逻辑的语言描述的就是科学,它被直观地传达和识别,那么它就是艺术”相呼应,表明爱因斯坦本人凭直觉工作,用逻辑表达自己,也是下文他被称为伟大的科学家也是艺术家的原因。故选E。
74.下文““If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.”(“如果我不是一名物理学家,”他曾说,“我可能会成为一名音乐家。我经常在音乐中思考,我从音乐中看待我的生活。我的生活中最快乐的部分来自音乐。”)”说明音乐对爱因斯坦帮助很大。F项“爱因斯坦的科学洞察力和直觉主要归功于音乐。”适合做本段的主旨句。故选F。
75.上文““The theory of relativity occurred to me by intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition,” said Einstein. (爱因斯坦说:“相对论是我凭直觉产生的,音乐是这种直觉背后的驱动力。”)”说明音乐对他的工作产生的积极影响。空处承接上文,说明了爱因斯坦是靠音乐才有了新发现,而且和本段音乐对他的帮助的主题相符合。C项“我的新发现是音乐洞察力的结果。”符合语境。故选C。

Do you think you have what it takes to be a successful scientist A successful scientist is generally a good observer. He makes full use of the facts he observes. He doesn’t accept ideas which are not 76 on obvious facts, and therefore 77 to accept authority as the only reason for truth. He always checks ideas 78 and makes experiments to prove them.

Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 83 towards the earth than small ones, because Aristotle said so. But Galileo went to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped two 84 stones, proving Aristotle was wrong. It is Galileo’s 85 of going directly to nature, and proving our 86 and theories by experiment, that has 87 all the discoveries of modern science.

Why do farmers grow crops outside in fields when we can arrange them vertically (垂直地) The idea of vertical farming was first proposed in 1999. It was seen as a way to save space, reduce air miles and transform old and abandoned buildings, like warehouses. In 2021, Fortune Business Insights valued the global vertical farming market at 3.47 billion dollars. Now, however, this industry is under threat, partly due to rising energy costs.
According to the magazine Science Focus, vertical farming gives ten times the yield (产量) of conventional outdoor farming. However, in order for crops to grow using this method, plants are placed in a controlled environment, grown not under the Sun, but under LED lights and watered with recycled water pumped on a closed-loop system (闭环系统).
Unfortunately, energy prices have risen across the globe. Therefore, this reliance on electricity has meant the last few years have not been easy for the industry. Cindy van Rijswick, from the Dutch research firm RaboResearch, has estimated that operational costs for a vertical farm are around 15% higher now compared to 18 months ago. Infarm, Europe’s largest vertical farming company, made around500 employees redundant (被裁员的) in November 2022 because they needed to downsize. They blamed higher operating costs due to energy increases as one reason for the layoffs.
Another issue related to the cost-of -living crisis and affecting vertical farming is the type of produce grown. This includes herbs such as basil, as well as salad leaves and leafy pared to traditionally farmed plants, like onions and carrots, these products tend to be more expensive, which could lead to reduced demand as consumers become more cautious about their spending.
So, it seems that a future with food grown under LED lights is looking less and less bright.
67.What is the feature of vertical farming
A.Saving urban land and achieving zero emissions.
B.Demanding highly technical and complex control.
C.High energy consumption and low output value.
D.Making full use of sunlight and water resources.
68.How does the author develop his idea in Paragraph 3
A.By making assumptions.
B.By criticizing a typical behaviour.
C.By listing specific data and facts.
D.By referring to a social phenomenon.
69.What can we infer from the text
A.Vertical farming avoids climate and disaster impacts.
B.Vertical farming costs jumped due to higher energy prices.
C.Vertical farming grows high-value, cost-effective produce.
D.High yield protects vertical farming from market competition.
70.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Is This the End of Vertical Farming B.Is Vertical Farming Highly Efficient
C.Challenges Industrial Agriculture Faces D.New Trends in Vertical Agriculture

Einstein’s Opinions on Creative Thinking
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” said Albert Einstein, one of the greatest physicists and an amateur pianist and violinist.
For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics. 71 “All great achievements of science must start from intuitive (直觉的) knowledge. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”
72 Surprisingly, it wasn’t the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed. If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art. 73 That’s why he said that great scientists were also artists.
74 “If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.” Music provided Einstein with a connection between time and space, which both combine spatial (空间的) and structural aspects. “The theory of relativity occurred to me by intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition,” said Einstein. “My parents had me study the violin from the time I was six. 75 ”
A.But how did art differ from science for Einstein
B.Instead, it came from intrusion (直觉) and inspiration.
C.My new discovery is the result of musical insight.
D.There is no doubt that my theory was a great breakthrough then.
E.Einstein himself worked intuitively and expressed himself logically.
F.Einstein also owed his scientific insight and intuition mainly to music.
G.For Einstein, it was the humanities that mainly contributed to his achievements.

Do you think you have what it takes to be a successful scientist A successful scientist is generally a good observer. He makes full use of the facts he observes. He doesn’t accept ideas which are not 76 on obvious facts, and therefore 77 to accept authority as the only reason for truth. He always checks ideas 78 and makes experiments to prove them.
The rise of modern science may perhaps be considered to 79 as far back as the time of Roger Bacon, the wonderful philosopher of Oxford. He was probably the first person in the Middle Ages to 80 that we should learn science by observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 81 many important truths.
However, Galileo, who lived more than 300 years later, was the greatest of several great men in Italy, France, Germany, and England, who began to show how many important 82 could be discovered by observation. Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 83 towards the earth than small ones, because Aristotle said so. But Galileo went to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped two 84 stones, proving Aristotle was wrong. It is Galileo’s 85 of going directly to nature, and proving our 86 and theories by experiment, that has 87 all the discoveries of modern science.
What 88 those people good scientists From the example of Galileo, we can see 89 that successful scientists are those whose observations have 90 better results.

“Planting 200 acres of rice in two hours, I didn’t dare to dream of such efficiency in the past,” Xie Feilong, a farmer from Liuyuan town of Aksu Prefecture (地区) of Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, expressed 106 (he) gratitude for the use of drones (无人机) to plant rice this year.
Xie’s family has planted over 3,000 acres of rice. In previous years, during the rice planting season, the whole family and several dozen workers would walk into the 107 (ice) rice fields to plant seeds. “Last year, some people in the village 108 (use) drones to plant rice. I was hesitant because I wasn’t sure whether it would work well, so I didn’t dare to try it. As it turned out, the rice 109 (plant) with drones by others was evenly distributed and at the right density (密度), 110 saved time, effort and money. This year, I also employed drones for planting, removing the need for the whole family 111 (work) in the cold water,” Xie said.
On April 22, 2024, 14,000 acres of rice in 112 town Xie comes from were all planted using drones, achieving mechanized planting. It’s expected that this year’s rice output will range from 700 113 900 kilograms per acre, 114 (generate) income of around 700 to 1,000 yuan per acre.
In 2024, Aksu Prefecture plans to plant 100,000 acres of rice. The prefecture has greatly promoted the use of new technologies and equipment in agriculture, innovated service models and 115 (active) promoted services such as drone planting and pest control.
