To us, the kitchen was a mysterious place. Our kitchen at home was so simple: an old Sparks oven, a refrigerator, a sink, and a table. At the New Eastern, it was a busy factory. Almost an entire wall was taken up by a line of huge black woks (锅). This was my father’s stage. He strode (大步走) the length of the four woks, each one fired up by gas flames underneath. Beneath him, blocks of wood, raised off the ground an inch or two, served to give his legs and feet some spring.
The sink was the size of a bathtub (浴); the refrigerator had glass doors and stretched three times as wide as the one at home. Every appliance was bigger, and there were things we never saw anywhere else, like the big metal oven in which my father hung long poles holding large pieces of pork. We could hear the fire roaring from the bottom of it. My dad would go about his business, and then, always at exactly the right time, he’d wander over, lift off the top, and take out several poles of barbecued pork—bright red, with black at the tips. If I happened by at that magical moment, I’d stop. “Yeet-gow!” I’d say. And he’d skillfully chop off a piece of the juicy, sweet meat. “One dollar!” he’d shout, and then hand it over.
My father made the best food in town. There was nothing he wouldn’t try. He was once proud of a rock candy he invented and determined to sell at the front counter of the New Eastern. We, of course, served as his guinea pigs—we couldn’t bring ourselves to tell him the sad truth: The candy was so hard that it was uneatable. I rolled a piece around my mouth. “Tastes good, Ba-Ba, ”I said. Then, when he looked away, I spat it out.
Sometimes, he liked to invent stories to us. Watching my little sister Shirley biting on an apple, he’d lean over. “Don’t eat the seed,” he said, “or an apple tree will grow inside you.” “What ” “Yes. Right inside your stomach, an apple tree!”

A middle-aged woman playing by herself in the snow is an undeniably odd sight, but maybe it shouldn’t be. New research suggests that modern adults are suffering from overmuch depression, so play may be as essential to our health as sleep. We’ve been in our nature to play, which is causing all kinds of problems—for ourselves, our children, and our planet.
It’s believed that adult play can lead to useful discoveries, which is supported by a study on Bali’s long-tailed monkeys. For her doctoral paper at the University of Lethbridge, animal researcher Camilla Cenni left two types of puzzle boxes for the monkeys to solve. To get the food inside, they had to drop a rock into the container or use it to hit the box. She found the monkeys that previously had been observed dropping rocks for fun were more likely to solve the rock-dropping puzzle, while those that had discovered the joy of tapping rocks together think of the answer to the tapping puzzle.
This finding also suggests that somewhere, deep in our evolutionary history, a playful proto-human(原始人) came up with the concept of stone tools. Even today, the urge to play underlies most of humanity’s greatest inventions, artworks, and scientific breakthroughs, Brown says. “When I interviewed Nobel winners, I was struck by how most of them didn’t separate work and play. Their labs were their playgrounds”.
“The opposite of play isn’t work; it’s depression,” says play researcher Stuart Brown, “Play is all about looking at a tough world with creativity and optimism. It gives us the ability to cooperate and get along with people who differ from us,” He goes so far as to declare that “adult play is necessary for our survival as a species.”
The next time I’m caught playing, I know exactly what I’ll say: “I am not wasting time, or acting immature. I’m doing nothing for the benefit of all humanity. You’re welcome.”
28．What is the phenomenon the author describes at the beginning of the text
A．Playing with snow is strange. B．Wild nature is difficult to find.
C．Many people are stressed out. D．People enjoy living close to nature.
29．What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
A．The necessity of the study. B．The importance of adult play.
C．Main activities of monkeys. D．Various functions of a rock.
30．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning a playful proto-human
A．To explain the concept of play. B．To compare two research findings.
C．To highlight scientific breakthroughs. D．To offer some background information.
31．Which of the following best describes the author in the last paragraph
A．Humorous. B．Optimistic. C．Caring. D．Active.
D
Anyone eager to view from high the cityscapes of Guangdong, a province in southern China, may soon be able to do so from the cabin of a flying taxi. On October 13th the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC)awarded a “type certificate”, a crucial piece of aviation paperwork, to the world’s first electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) taxi. And in case that does not sound futuristic enough, the small two-seater, called the EH216-s, was also cleared to fly without a pilot on board.
The EH216-S is made by EHang, a company based in Guangdong. It looks like a scaled-up consumer drone (无人机) with a passenger bubble mounted on top. Propulsion (动力) is provided by 16 small rotors (转子), mounted on the tips of eight arms that fold away when the vehicle is not in use, allowing it to park in small spaces.
The CAAC gave its approval after EHang had conducted more than 40,000 test flights, including with volunteer passengers in 18 cities across China. It also subjected the EH216-S to structural analysis and crash tests, and checked its ability to keep flying if one of its rotors fails. Regulators also inspected the wireless network which EHang uses to link its flying taxis to a control centre on the ground. That allows backup pilots to land an aircraft by remote control if there is a problem.
EHang says its pilotless eVTOLs will be quieter than helicopters, their closest cousins, and much cheaper to operate, thanks in part to the ability to swap (交换) out an expensive pilot, for a second paying passenger. Performance, though, will be limited, at least at first. The EH216-S has a range of about 30 km, and a speed of up to 130 kph. The firm thinks that doing away with pilots will make things safer too. A computer’s attention never wavers (动摇). And flying is, in many ways, much easier to automate than driving, for there are fewer obstacles and unexpected situations to navigate.
EHang has ambitions beyond China, too. The firm’s closest competitors are Volocopter, a German company, and a pair of Californian firms, Joby Aviation and Archer Aviation. All three are conducting test flights of piloted eVTOLs of various designs.
32．What does the underlined word “cleared” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Produced. B．Approved. C．Removed. D．Tested.
33．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．What features EH216-S possesses. B．How strict the standard of EHang is.
C．What benefits pilotless eVTOLs have. D．How EH216-S gets its approval.
34．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．EVTOLs will definitely bring in a huge profit.
B．EVTOLs are popular worldwide.
C．EHang may face challenges in expanding future market.
D．EHang will improve its design to defeat competitors.
35．Where is the text probably taken from
A．An ad in a magazine. B．A review of a bestseller.
C．A column in a newspaper. D．A chapter of a science book.

How much time do you spend doing research before you make a decision There are people who go over every detail exhaustively before making a choice. (36) Psychologists call this way of thinking a cognitive bias (偏见), a tendency toward a specific mental mistake.
To study "jumping", we examined decision-making patterns among more than 600 people from the general population. We found that jumpers made more errors than non-jumpers on problems that require thoughtful analysis. (37) In a quiz about US civics, they overestimated the chance that their answers were right significantly more than other participants did—even when their answers were wrong.
So what is behind "jumping" Psychological researchers commonly distinguish between two pathways of thought: automatic system, which reflects ideas that come to the mind easily, spontaneously and without effort, and controlled system including conscious and effortful reasoning. Jumpers and non-jumpers are equally influenced by automatic thoughts. (38)
It is the controlled system that helps people counter balance mental biases introduced by the automatic system. As a result, jumpers were more likely to accept the conclusions made at first blush without further questioning. A lack of controlled thinking is also more broadly connected to their problematic beliefs and faulty reasoning.
(39) A method called meta-cognitive training can be used to target their biases, which can help people think more deliberately. In this training, participants are confronted with their own biases. They can learn about the missteps and other ways of thinking through the problem at hand. It helps to chip away at participants' overconfidence.
In everyday life, the question of whether we should think things through or instead go with our gut is a frequent and important one. (40) Sometimes the most important decision we make can be to take some more time before making a choice.
A. Happily, there may be some hope for jumpers.
B. Also, jumpers had problems with overconfidence.
C. But a fair number of individuals are quick to jump to conclusions.
D. It is certainly possible for them to overthink things to take a decision.
E. We plan to continue the work to trace other problems introduced by jumping.
F. The jumpers, however, did not engage in controlled reasoning to the same degree as non-jumpers.
G. Recent studies show that even gathering just a little bit more evidence may help us avoid a major mistake.

Hence, I jumped when Mr. Weston suddenly remarked, “You’ve captured the essence of the tree’s 50 beautifully on paper.” “Thanks.” I smiled, glancing up. “If you spread out the roots near the surface, the tree could 51 sufficient water and soar even higher.” I noticed the knobby bumps(疙瘩状突起) of roots 52 out of the ground all around the tree. I’d never realized how 53 a tree’s roots stretched outward. It struck me that if I wanted to grow, I had to start 54 too.
That evening, I filled out the art camp application, ready to stretch my 55 out into new earth. I thought I am the pine.

Poetry is the earliest form of Chinese literature that originated from folk songs. Conventionally, Chinese poetry is divided into four classes — shi or poetry, ci, ge or songs, and fu. The Shi verse form evolved from Shi Jing. Instead of glorifying gods and heroes 56 was the case in early poems of other cultures, these poems expressed the daily lives of the peasants: their sorrows and joys, 57 (occupy) and festivities.
Qu Yuan wrote Chuci, pioneering 58 unique form of classical Chinese poetry. Next 59 (come) Yuefu, a general term for folk songs and ballads of the Han Dynasty (206BC-220AD). The heyday (全盛期) of poetry, 60 so many other Chinese art forms, arose in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). More than 50,000 poems 61 (write) by 2,200 poets during these 300 years are still known today. Li Bai (701-762), “the Immortal”, and Du Fu (712-770), “the sage”, 62 (be) the twin pinnacles of Chinese poetry. In the Song Dynasty (960-1279), 63 poetry in five and seven syllable lines and other classical forms was generally regarded as somewhat inferior (低劣的), Ci boomed.

In time, themes became 65 (increase) diverse along with changes in society.

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。
As a single mother, I’ve never doubted my daughter Jane’s dream to be a singer on the stage. At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs.
Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing.
Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me.
It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary.
That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks.
After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
