Laurie Horam never thought of himself as musical. At home, his dad never listened to music, while one of his boarding school teachers labelled him tone deaf. But last month he started to play the harmonica (口琴) on the streets of Bradford. People clapped, danced and threw coins into his case for the local food bank. Horam caught himself thinking: “How, at the age of 79, do I come to be playing music to people on the streets "
The question preoccupied him, because, some years ago at a family gathering, Gavin, his eldest son, said: “You know what, Dad It can't be coincidental. We must have got our musical abilities from you. " Horam has three sons and they cover a range of instruments. He was surprised. “There can't be music in me, because I can't play!” he said.
Eight years ago, Horam, a retired civil servant, was on his way back from a trip with his family. Gavin stopped at a music shop. He walked out and said: “Here you are. I bought this for you, Dad. It's a harmonica. I'll try to show you how to play a bit. "
They went to a session at their local pub. Gavin played the guitar and Horam sat in the corner with his harmonica, trying to make a sound that no one would hear. After six months, he was invited into the group. He discovered a talent for improvisation (即兴表演),responding to a note within a millisecond without batting an eyelid. “I don't play by ear. I play by heart. " Actually, Horam says: “My harmonica plays me---how I feel what I am, what I've been.”
Music has enriched life with friendship and made Horam feel “part of something much bigger” than himself. “At a time when the circle of life might be shrinking, mine is expanding, " he says. “Maybe we never know completely who we are or what we can do. "
24. Why did Horam play the harmonica on the streets of Bradford
A. To recall the good old days.
B. To beg food from passers-by.
C. To live his childhood dream.
D. To collect money for charity.
25. What is Gavin's attitude to his father's musical ability
A. Positive. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
26. What does playing the harmonica allow Horam to do
A. Enjoy the quiet. B. Refind his talent.
C. Express himself. D. Sharpen his hearing.
27. What does music bring to Horam
A. A lost soul. B. A cultural identity.
C. A broader circle of life. D. A new perception of family.

About a decade ago, Fuchsia Dunlop attended a banquet(宴会) in Guangzhou. The most memorable dish, however, was the plain white cup of soup served at the end. Made from chicken, it was simple, clean and perfect. It seem odd to Westerners, but, as Ms Dunlop, an English food writer, explains in a new book, stock(家禽) is a unique expression of a chef's art. And the clean, “almost invisible soup” is an ideal conclusion to a banquet, with its rich and strong flavours.
Invitation to a Banquet is Ms Dunlop's seventh book where, unlike a traditional cookbook, she has chosen 30 dishes to illustrate different aspects of Chinese cuisine— and, in turn, Chinese life and history. Like other outsiders who focus on a foreign cuisine, she is more a gatherer than an inventor of recipes. Her well-researched cookbooks read as mini-ethnographies(民族志).
Readers will not learn how to make traditional Chinese cuisines but how and why Chinese chefs have long prized unusual (and to Westerners, sometimes unappealing)ingredients. A seemingly humble yet labor-intensive dish of braised carp(鲤鱼) tail serves as a starting point for exploring the significance of kougan, or mouthfeel, in Chinese cuisine. Westerners, Ms Dunlop argues, “have traditionally assumed that the Chinese eat less desirable animal parts out of poverty”, when in fact they shut the door on various foods that is wonderfully cui(“slippery, often in a wet way”).
Altogether, Ms Dunlop makes a persuasive argument for the superiority of Chinese cuisine, highlighting its strengths in a joyful manner rather than a boastful one. She shows how it has embraced foreign influences, how it has changed with China's increasing wealth and how central it is to the country's cultural history.
She makes an equally persuasive argument that what Westerners think of as “Chinese food”, commonly found at their local takeaway, is neither inauthentic nor wrong. Instead, it is an adaptation shaped by Chinese communities living abroad and as representative of the cuisine's diversity as a frozen pizza is of Italy's. Immigration has made the authentic flavors more accessible than ever outside China. Eaters should learn to appreciate that.
28. Why might the plain chicken soup seem odd to Westerners
A. It is placed in a white cup. B. It is served at the end the meal.
C. It is made of unusual ingredients. D. It is enriched with complex flavors.
29. How does Invitation to a Banquet differ from traditional cookbooks
A. It keeps track of foreign recipes.
B. It explores aspects beyond recipes.
C. It is intended for cuisine research.
D. It teaches how to make Chinese cuisines.
30. What can be inferred from the mentioning of “westerners” in Para.3
A. They view Chinese cuisine as pricey.
B. They hesitate to try new ingredients.
C. They like Chinese cuisine's diversity.
D. They often misinterpret Chinese cuisine.
31. What does Ms Dunlop think of Chinese cuisine
A. Inclusive and dynamic. B. Inflexible and adapted.
C. Simple and overvalued. D. Beautiful and boastful.
D
Mentally replaying a memory can be helpful for recalling key details, such as picturing the moment you last arrived home to remember where you put your keys. This ability is what psychologists call “mental time travel". Episodic memory, which is a form of long-term memory for events, is an example of mental time travel. While scientists once thought it was unique to humans, evidence of such memory has been found in animals, such as great apes and mice. Scientists have recently found birds called Eurasian Jays can do it, too.
Eurasian Jays have excellent memory: they stash foods such as nuts and larvae (幼虫)for future consumption, so remembering the place, contents and time is crucial for their survival. They also have complex mental abilities such as object permanence and spatial memory. This made researchers curious to know whether Eurasian Jays might revisit memories like we do.
In the experiment, seven birds watched experimenters place food beneath one cup in a line of identical cups. They were rewarded for later picking the correct cup. This training was repeated multiple times so that the birds could remember the correct cup's position.
Then the birds were given a different memory assessment in which they saw food placed beneath one of several cups with differently colored shapes or patterns. Ten minutes later, they were brought back to these non-identical cups in a different order. If the bird only remembered what it was trained to recall, it would have been fooled by this switch-up. “But instead, the birds were largely able to access visual details that they hadn't known they would need, " says James Davies, the lead author of the study. The jays correctly chose the cup with the food 70% of the time based on those visual features. This experiment was a powerful indicator of something like episodic memory because the jays didn't know colors and patterns would be important when they first saw them.
Next, the researchers hope to get a clearer picture of the jays' memory abilities by testing their limits. Human episodic memory is quite flexible - - it can apply to situations that don't have to do with food or survival - - so the researchers suggest exploring whether Eurasian Jays' memory abilities are sharp in non-food-related situations as well.
32. What is a feature of “mental time travel"
A. It benefits temporary memory.
B. It's different from episodic memory.
C. It's common in the animal kingdom.
D. It enables mental scene reconstruction.
33. What does the underlined word" stash" in paragraph 2 mean
A. Digest. B. Share. C. Store. D. Consume.
34. What can be inferred from two experiments about Eurasian Jays
A. They show flexible memory beyond training.
B. They are a good master of color and patterns.
C. They choose correctly based on initial memory.
D. They rely on their spatial memory to find food.
35. What do researchers want to explore in future studies
A. Jays' specific food preferences.
B. Jay's survival skills in the wild.
C. Jays' social behavior and memory.
D. Jays' memory ability in non-food contexts.

As a baby, Jack's remarkable swimming journey began. At ten months, he already practised with swim aids. At six, he won his first swimming competition in a group for kids ten-and-under. At seven, he stayed at the pool from nine in the morning till eight hours later. His mother, recognizing his gift, took it as her duty to guide him. 36 By a young age, Jack had been ranked the number one swimmer of the country, a title he held for a record-breaking duration.
37 He played skiing, tennis, soccer, and many more. Sam was a kid who loved to play, and his parents had no particular athletic ambitions for him. It was nearing his teens that he began to focus more on basketball. 38 In his mid-thirties, an age by which many professional basketball players are typically retired, Sam was still in the national basketball team.
Top athletes like Jack at the peak of their abilities do spend more time on focused, deliberate practice than their peers. But scientists also find that potential champions typically devote less time to deliberate practice in childhood, but more to “sampling” various activities. 39
In a world that demands people to specialize early, we face a challenge to keep the benefits of diverse experiences and delayed concentration. There's a need for those with Jack’ s early focus. 40 People who start with many different things and accept various experiences. People with range.
A. And it was all going according to plan.
B. There was no opportunity waiting for him.
C. The growing complexity of the world also calls for more Sams.
D. But it didn't seem to hold back his development in the long run.
E. In contrast to Jack, Sam didn't practice deliberately for basketball.
F. In reality, the Sam's path to success is far more common, yet less told.
G. Unlike the swimming talent, Sam's early years were filled with a variety of sports.

阅读下列材料，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。
I was in Philadelphia for a conference when I saw an ad in the hotel. A nearby theater was showing a documentary about several local animal shelters that were helping to save abandoned dogs across the country. I love animals, and I felt an urge to go to this fundraising event. However, none of my co-workers would go with me, and I was worried about walking on the street alone at night.
I resigned myself to spending the evening in my hotel room, but as soon as I got back to my room I felt restless and bored. The theater where the event was taking place was only about five blocks from the hotel, and the area around the hotel didn't seem particularly dangerous. So, I decided to brave it. I gathered up my wallet and room key and set off.
It was already getting dark and the streets were nearly deserted. I managed to find the street the theater was on, but when I turned the corner, I stopped in shock. In front of the theater were a group of bikers-very big, tough-looking bikers. They blocked my only path and their appearance suggested they were part of an infamous street gang(帮派).
I've known lots of motorcycle enthusiasts and most are nice people. However, in this case, I was a woman all alone, in a strange neighborhood, at night. Warning bells began to sound in my head, and my heart was pounding. Was I at the right theater Had I misread the date of the event
A sign outside the theater told me that I was in the right place on the right evening. Nevertheless, I wondered if I should rush back to my hotel instead of walking through that crowd of bikers. I finally decided that I would be safer inside the theater, where I could meet many animal rescue groups. Hopefully, the bikers would have gone away by the time the film was over.
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。
I hurried into the theater, only to find there were even more bikers inside.
When the film began, I realized that the bikers were not what I had feared.
