A recent scientific report says that more than one-fifth of the world's reptiles (爬行动物) are at the risk of dying out.
Reptiles are cold-blooded, which means their bodies have the same temperature as the around them, Examples of reptiles include animals like snakes, lizards, and crocodiles.
The study is the first worldwide measurement of how threatened different species of reptiles are. For 15 years, between 2007 and 2022, researchers collected information on over 10,000 different kinds of reptiles. The new report has revealed some unhappy news — 21% of all reptile species are in danger of extinction. That's over 1,800 species in all. The study reported that at least 31 species of reptiles have already gone extinct.
The main reason why these reptiles are faced with extinction is that humans are taking over more and more of their habitat. More land continues to be cleared to make room for cities and towns. Large areas of land are also being cleared so that they can be used as farmland. Logging — cutting down trees for wood—is another big threat to reptile habitat.
When we talk about reptiles, many people may think of hot, dry areas. But some of the most endangered reptiles live in forests. The new study reports that 30% of reptile species that live in forests are at the risk of dying out. Turtles and crocodiles are among the most threatened reptiles — 60% of turtle species and 50% of crocodile species are at the risk of extinction.
Similar worldwide studies were made of birds, mammals, and amphibians (两栖动物) more than ten years ago. The authors of the report say it is harder to collect the money needed to study reptiles. They believe that's because furry (覆盖皮毛的) or feathery animals like mammals and birds are more popular with most people.
Scientists say that the good news is that we know what must be done to protect reptiles. Bruce Young, one of the leaders of the study, says, "We have all the tools we need." Protecting natural areas, especially rain forests, is at the top of the list.
24. What should be responsible for the loss of reptile habitat according to Para 4
A. Changes in agricultural practices. B. Environmental pollution.
C. Climate change. D. Human activities.
25. What is the most endangered reptile species
A. Snake species. B. Lizard species.
C. Crocodile species. D. Turtle species.
26. Why is it more difficult to raise money to study reptiles
A. They are less popular than furry or feathery animals
B. Most people are not aware that they are endangered.
C. It is much more expensive to do research on them.
D. It is much harder to find and observe them.
27. What is the theme of the text
A. Reptiles have their own way of living in their habitat.
B. Many reptile species are at the risk of going extinct.
C. Many reptile species are protected by a lot of laws.
D. Reptiles play an important role in an ecosystem.

Rx4 Rhythm is one of the programs offered at the Johns Hopkins Centre for Music and Medicine in Baltimore. The program is the brainchild of Dr Alexander Pantelyat, a violin player. He is also a neurologist (神经科医生) who specializes in movement disorders like Parkinson's. Applying music therapy (疗法) to movement disorders is relatively new; previously, it was mainly used in cancer treatment. He explains, "Just listening to music activates many regions of the brain at the same time." Now, a growing body of scientific evidence shows that music can be medicine, too.
One study from the Centre for Music and Medicine followed a choir composed of Parkinson's patients to learn how singing might impact the speaking voice of those patients. After 12 weeks, the singers' speaking volumes which often fade as Parkinson's progresses grew demonstrably stronger. The Rx4 Rhythm drumming circle, meanwhile, came out of a 2015 study that showed that Parkinson's patients had improved their ability to walk after six weeks of drumming practice.
In a review of 400 research papers looking into the neurochemistry of music, Daniel Levitin, a neuroscientist at McGill University, found that playing and listening to music had clear mental and physical health benefits, including improving our immune systems and reducing stress levels. It can also reduce the pain patients are suffering.
Studies show that music can trigger memories and touch parts of the brain that other mediums cannot. Sometimes music can work like miracle. One day, the nursing team at Toronto's Princess Margaret Cancer Centre asked Sarah, a music therapist, if she could reach out to a patient who was unwilling to engage with staff or be part of any activities. As she started to play one piece of his favorite music on her keyboard, a change came over him. He unfolded his arms, turned towards Black and started to cry. He said through tears. "It was as if the music went places that nothing else could recalls." He shared afterwards that the music showed up at a moment when it felt like a hug.
28. What is the purpose of the program
A. To treat cancer using music therapy.
B. To help patients to appreciate music.
C. To treat Parkinson by activating the brain.
D. To treat movement disorders with the help of music.
29. How has the program affected Parkinson's patients
A. They walk faster. B. They speak louder. C. They grow stronger. D. Their memories fade.
30. What do the underlined words "trigger" mean in paragraph 4
A. bring back B. refresh C. lose D. put back
31. What can be learned about the program from the last paragraphs
A. It can help patients to recall places.
B. It can help patients to comfort others.
C. It can help patients to interact with others.
D. It can help patients to improve their ability to walk.
D
During Yang Zhongkai's early years, a 500-year-old majestic ginkgo tree that did not sprout leaves for two to three years at a stretch used to be a daily sight for him on his way to and from high school. Since villagers widely regarded the tree as having the power to make their wishes come true, they used to kneel down in front of the "lucky" tree and burn offerings under it, which led to prolonged heat exposure at its roots, stunting its growth.
"Millions of such old trees are in urgent need of protection given their importance as vital biological resources and symbols of ecological civilization," said Yang, who started the team — Zhiyue — dedicated to protecting ancient trees."But the recording and management of ancient and famous trees nationwide commonly rely on Excel spreadsheets (电子表格), which present issues such as information silos, lack of real-time updates and incomplete content," he said.
However, things have changed of late. Yang and his team now use the artificial intelligence technology developed by Tencent Cloud to identify and register trees accurately based on individual traits and GPS tracking. "With the acceleration of a new generation of technological revolution and industrial transformation, new technologies bring more excitement to the protection of ancient trees." Yang said. "We can now collect data on the trees' growth, health and environment in real time, which helps us make informed decisions on how to better protect them."
"In addition to applying cutting-edge technologies such as AI and large models to assist in the development of traditional industries, the company also makes great efforts to promote the development of charitable causes through technological and platform advantages, "Wu Yunsheng said, vice-president of Tencent Cloud, adding that"the power of technology can change the world".
32. What does the underlined word "stunting" in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Preventing. B. Promoting. C. Measuring. D. Maintaining.
33. What problem did ancient trees face according to paragraph 2
A. The lack of effective protection measures.
B. The risk of information loss and accuracy.
C. The destruction by local villagers.
D. The extreme heat from burning.
34. What do we know about Tencent Cloud's new technology
A. It enables the collection of real-time data on trees'growth.
B. It is a valuable tool for people to protect the eco-system.
C. It has been widely used in the traditional industries.
D. It can quickly update the number of trees in China.
35. Which is probably the best title for the text
A. Modern Technology Advances Charitable Causes
B. Ancient Tree Management is Vital for Biodiversity
C. Ancient Trees Hold Cultural Traditions
D. New Technology Helps Tree Protection

I was driving home, northbound on a 6-lane highway. A pickup truck crashed into a car which was switching lanes. A huge accident, involving 5 other cars, unfolded in front of me. Immediately, I ran to a car which was upside down. I got someone to help by holding pressure on a big cut above the woman's left ear, and then, with help, got her and a large, unconscious man, both upside down, out of the car. I then went to the four other cars to check if anyone else was hurt badly. Fortunately, no one else was in serious condition. It all took just a few minutes.
In the meantime, the southbound traffic had stopped. I looked over and saw a group of 12 people, out of their cars standing in a circle about 15 feet away from a young man, bloody and wounded, lying still on the pavement. I asked a couple of different people what had happened. The young man had gotten out of his car to cross the road and help, when a car drove along the inside lane, very fast, to get around the stopped traffic. The "Good Samaritan" was hit by the car, which launched him high in the air. He lay where he dropped. Everyone said he was dead; several had checked, But a feeling inside me said, "I didn't check him. Can they be certain he is dead "
He was covered in blood with arms and legs hurt and his head almost to his chest. I felt for pulses(脉搏) at different spots and felt nothing. Then I checked him once again. I realized at that moment, I was feeling for a normal pulse. When I felt again with this in mind. I thought I felt a very weak and rapid heart rate of about 160. I knew I was not supposed to move his head, but I saw no other way to hopefully open his airway. I pushed his chin(下巴) upwards. He then started taking rapid, shallow breaths.

W: You should have been there, Micheal. It was unbelievable. I couldn't even stand up on the surfboard.
M: Well, who taught you
W: My brother offered to teach me.
M: That's good. He must be a good coach.
W: Not really. He started surfing at 15 and got a professional certificate at 22. Now he has been doing that for ten years. I'd have thought he would be good at teaching others to surf, but I was totally wrong! My brother may be an excellent surfer, but he is impatient and doesn't master suitable teaching methods. So he is not cut out to be a surfing instructor.
M: Well, why don't you call me to go with you next time I'd be willing to give it a shot. I know a thing or two about surfing.
W: Thanks, but as far as I'm concerned, I don't think I will pick up the surfboard again. Surfing is just too hard for me.

16.答案:A
17.答案:C
18.答案:B
解析:There is a saying, "China has the best teahouses in the world and Chengdu has the best teahouses in China." After I came to Chengdu, I often go to the teahouse, because the atmosphere is completely different from that in the coffee shops in my country. Every time I enter the teahouse, the waiters or waitresses will greet me with a smile on their faces and with teapots and cups in their hands. People who go there are not all thirsty, because teahouses are also good places for business talk. I've invited my business partner to meet there. People have parties there at times. They eat fruit and sunflower seeds while chatting. Some teahouses even have stages for performances, such as storytelling, cross talk and Sichuan Opera, which hold people's attention. Besides, like-minded people pay a little money and then can sit there all day long to chat with each other. Sometimes when a group of people have an argument, a peacekeeper will bring them to the teahouse. It's interesting that as soon as the angry people sit down to drink tea, they almost calm down. With the help of the peacekeeper, their problems can be easily settled. The person who is wrong will pay for the tea and then they make it up. This convinces me that teahouses have some powerful social function.

Logging—cutting down trees for wood-is another big threat to reptile habitat (这些爬行动物面临灭绝的主要原因是人类正在占领越来越多的栖息地。更多的土地继续被清理,为城市和城镇腾出空间。大片土地也正在被清理,以便用作农田。伐木一一砍伐树木换木材—是对爬行动物栖息地的另一大威胁)可知,根据第四段,人类活动应为爬行动物栖息地的丧失负责。故选D。

26.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第六段中的The authors of the report say it is harder to collect the money needed to study reptiles. They believe that's because furry(覆盖皮毛的) or feathery animals like mammals and birds are more popular with most people (该报告的作者表示,筹集研究爬行动物所需资金更加困难。他们认为这是因为哺乳动物和鸟类等毛茸茸或羽毛状的动物更受大多数人欢迎)可知,筹集资金来研究爬行动物更为困难,因为它们不如毛茸茸或羽毛状的动物受欢迎。故选A。
27.答案:B
解析:主旨大意题。根据全文,尤其是第一段中的A recent scientific report says that more than one-fifth of the world's reptiles(爬行动物) are at the risk of dying out (最近的一份科学报告称,世界上超过五分之一的爬行动物有灭绝的风险)以及以下的叙述可知文章的主题是许多爬行动物有灭绝的危险。故选B。

31.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段 "One day, the nursing team at Toronto's Princess Margaret Cancer Centre asked Sarah, a music therapist, if she could reach out to a patient who was unwilling to engage with staff or be part of any activities. As she started to play one piece of his favorite music on her keyboard, a change came over him. He unfolded his arms, turned towards Black and started to cry. He said through tears. "It was as if the music went places that nothing else could recalls." He shared afterwards that the music showed up at a moment when it felt like a hug.(一天,多伦多玛格丽特公主癌症中心的护理团队问音乐治疗师莎拉,她是否能帮助一位不愿与工作人员接触或参加任何活动的病人。当她开始在键盘上弹奏他最喜欢的一首曲子时,他发生了变化。他张开双臂,转向布莱克,哭了起来。他流着泪说。"就好像音乐去了其他任何东西都无法回忆的地方。"他后来分享说,音乐出现的那一刻,感觉就像一个拥抱)"可推知,项目可以帮助病人与他人互动。故选C。

Seasonal vegetable boxes might lead people to learn to cook new meals.(它们还允许人们尝试他们不愿尝试的东西。时令蔬菜盒可能会让人们学会烹饪新菜。)构成并列关系。故选A。
段落主旨题。本空属于本段的主旨句,根据本段内容When you buy them, you don't know what you'll get! It may be that the goods inside are not to your taste, but there is also the potential for people to use the unpredictability of mystery boxes to send items that have a much lower value than the price of the box.(当你买的时候,你不知道你会得到什么!可能是里面的商品不合你的口味,但也有可能是人们利用神秘盒子的不可预测性来发送价值远低于盒子价格的物品。)本段主要讲述了盲盒存在的缺点。因此,B.There is an obvious downside to mystery boxes.(盲盒有一个明显的缺点。)故选B。

第二节
答案:where/whose;spots;Covering;to;have carried;are held;to celebrate;extremely;a;Longer
考查定语从句。句意:中国的古镇和村庄是建筑、生活方式和民俗方面传统得以保存的地方。分析句子可知,空处需引导定语从句,修饰先行词places,places在从句中可以作地点状语,也可以作traditions的定语,因此用关系副词where或关系代词whose。故填where/whose。
考查可数名词的复数。句意:所有这些都可以在黄姚古镇找到,黄姚古镇是广西壮族自治区访问量最大的旅游景点之一。根据句中的"one of"可知,空处需用spot的复数形式,表示"众多访问量最大的旅游景点中的一个"。故填spots。
考查现在分词。句意:黄姚占地3.6平方公里,有近千年的历史,其起源可以追溯到宋代。分析句子可知,空处需用非谓语动词的形式,作状语,Huangyao和cover之间是主动关系,需用cover的现在分词形式,且空处位于句首,covering首字母需大写。故填Covering。
考查介词。句意:黄姚占地3.6平方公里,有近千年的历史,其起源可以追溯到宋代。此处应用dating back to,表示黄姚历史拥有的起源,空处应用介词to。故填to。
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:几百年来,这里的传统节日和习俗一直延续至今。空处作句子的谓语,时间状语为for hundreds of years up to now,应用现在完成时,主语People是复数,谓语动词也用复数形式。故填have carried。
考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意:在中国农历新年期间,这里举行20多种传统表演,包括舞龙和唢呐表演。空处作句子的谓语,句子描述的是现在的规律性的事件,应用一般现在时,performances和hold之间是被动关系,需用被动语态,且performances为复数,be动词用are。故填are held。
考查动词不定式。句意:在中国农历七月十四日,居民们经常来到河边,在河里放灯笼来庆祝中元节,也就是鬼节。分析句子可知,空处需用非谓语动词的形式,celebrate是put lanterns into the river的目的,需用不定式。故填to celebrate。

考查副词比较级。句意:由于古镇面积不大,通常需要一两天的时间来游览,但你可以多待一段时间,更多地体验当地的热情好客和文化。根据句中的"It usually takes a day or two to tour around the old town due to its small size"和"but"可知,此处有语义的转折,虽然游览古镇需要的时间不多,但是可以待久一点,空处需用副词的比较级和more of呼应,表示"更久"。故填longer。

第二节
答案:
By then, the ambulances were driving up. When I motioned to the ambulance driver, he shook his head, and pointed to the other crash victims. I yelled, became very angry, and indicated to the ambulance driver this person was alive and needed help first, as I had done checks on all the others already. He understood what I was trying to say and did in fact, attend to the man thought to be dead.
Due to the doctors and care of nurses, the "Good Samaritan" did survive. In fact, he walked out of the hospital after many months with minimal side-effects. It was a big deal when he was released from the hospital, covered by all the news stations, all intending to honor the "Good Samaritan". I smiled to myself, happy I was fortunate enough to be at the right place at the right time, to follow my instincts, and knowing a young man had his whole life in front of him.
