What comes to mind when you think of a museum Valuable exhibits Relaxed atmosphere Here let's encounter some special museums.
The Museum of Bad Art
The Museum of Bad Art based in Boston, Massachusetts, will bring you a quite different visual experience. As its name implies, all pieces have made their way to the museum for being too bad to be ignored.
All the paintings have been found in yard sales, rescued from the trash or donated to the museum. When viewing such a large collection of failed art, be prepared to laugh your head off.
Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum
Established in 1984 and opened to the public in 1987, the Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum sits in a complex of grand buildings in the architectural style of the Han Dynasty.
The distinctive museum consists of two sections. The aboveground part features models of tombs from the Stone Age to the Han Dynasty. The underground one contains 22 tombs from Henan Province. The tomb of Emperor Xuanwu of Northern Wei is the highlight of the museum.
The Underwater Museum
Fancy an undersea exploration but have no idea where to go Then the Underwater Museum at the bottom of Lake Grublsee in Austria can be a good choice.
This incredible museum is perfect for adventurous divers, which surely gives visitors a unique experience. It houses not only copies of ancient people and cultural relics, but also fun, strange pieces like the Statue of Liberty, aliens and skeletons (骨架).
Upside Down House
Another strange museum is the Upside Down House in St. Petersburg. It features an apartment where everything is turned upside down.
When you walk into the house, you will feel quite confused and find the entire museum very impressive. With each item in the apartment turned head over heels, you would experience the illusion (错觉) that comes with standing on the ceiling.
1. Which museum best suits diving enthusiasts
A. Upside Down House. B. The Museum of Bad Art.
C. The Underwater Museum. D. Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum.
2. What can people do in the Museum of Bad Art

B
“I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture (针灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine-combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.
Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.
Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.
Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.”
4. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him
A. He’s odd. B. He’s strict. C. He’s brave. D. He’s rude.
5. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets
A. He was trained in it at university. B. He was inspired by another veterinarian.
C. He benefited from it as a patient. D. He wanted to save money for pet owners.
6. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment. B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work.
C. Examples of rare animal diseases. D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine.
7. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association
A. To prove Farber’s point. B. To emphasize its importance.
C. To praise veterinarians. D. To advocate animal protection.
C
I started walking backward for no apparent reason. I was simply waving goodbye to my daughters when it hit me to take a few steps backward. Since I’d already started, I thought I could walk all the way home that way. After all, the contradiction of moving forward by going backward seemed engaging and worth exploring.
The first problem was practical. Snow is a pain even for regular walking, so my pace slowed down considerably. At this different pace, life itself felt rushed in comparison. How silly it is that we’re always in such a hurry to get somewhere. For example, I often arrive at places long after my body gets there. Sometimes I reach my daughters’ school, but my mind is still at home, wondering whether I unplugged my wife’s hair dryer. Walking backward, however, forced me to adjust the pace of my body to my mind.
The next thing had to do with vision. In regular walking, the path ahead is always visible. Here, you use other senses: you hear the car approaching, you sense the unevenness of the ground, and you notice the change in the firmness of the snow. You activate an entire set of skills we usually don’t use because of our dependence on sight. This way, the familiar path I walked every day suddenly felt like a grand adventure, a discovery I hadn’t anticipated.
Because of my addiction to foolish ideas, I decided to continue my backward walking for the rest of the day. And I quickly realized something obvious: the path I enjoyed most was the one I had already travelled. And it struck me that this was the right way to look at life: moving toward a destination without ever forgetting where you’ve been, or how far you’ve come. Looking back is always good for self-value. There’s no way to look at yesterday and not feel better: for the illness that didn’t kill you, or the happy childhood days that still make you smile.
8. What interested the author in the first paragraph
A. Finding a new route back home.
B. Engaging himself in deep thinking.
C. Moving forward in a different manner.
D. Seeing his daughters off every morning.
9. What did the author realize on the way back home
A. We need to stay focused at work.
B. We don’t need to live a rushed life.
C. We should spend more time with family.
D. We shouldn’t compare ourselves to others.
10. How did the author overcome the vision problem
A. He studied a set of new skills. B. He depended on his memory.
C. He followed his sense of direction. D. He made full use of other senses.
11. What message does the author seem to deliver in the last paragraph
A. Childhood is the best part in life. B. It’s inspiring to reflect on the past.
C. It’s important to find your self-value. D. One ought to learn to forgive himself.
D
A new groundbreaking study reveals a landmark breakthrough in the field of snakebite treatment. Researchers, led by David Baker from the University of Washington, have designed new proteins — unlike any found in nature — that can inactivate some of the most poisonous components of snake bite toxins (毒素).
Snakebites represent a substantial global health issue, affecting millions of people each year. According to the World Health Organization, over 2 million people suffer from snakebites annually, with more than 100,000 deaths and 300,000 cases of permanent disabilities. Current treatment options, mainly obtained from animal blood, often present drawbacks, including high production costs, limited efficiency, and severe side effects, such as causing shock and breathing difficulties.
In light of these challenges, Baker and his team have made effective use of deep learning tools to develop artificial proteins capable of attaching to and inactivating toxins. The study focuses on a specific group of snake proteins known as three-finger toxins. These toxins often bypass the immune (免疫的) system, making conventional treatments ineffective. Notably, the newly designed proteins provide significant protection against deadly amounts of three-finger toxins in mice, achieving survival rates ranging from 80% to 100%.
By avoiding the lengthy and resource-intensive processes associated with conventional antibody development, this approach could lead to more accessible and affordable treatments. Also, the new proteins are smaller, allowing for greater penetration (渗透) into body systems to quickly inactivate the toxins and reduce damage. The efficiency and speed at which these proteins can be designed and produced using AI indicate a transformative shift in drug discovery processes, especially in resource-limited settings.
While the study’s findings are encouraging, the researchers acknowledge that traditional antitoxins will remain central to snakebite treatment for the near future. The newly created computer-designed antitoxins can be integrated into existing treatment as additions, enhancing the overall effectiveness of established treatments. Meanwhile, scientists believe the new methods employed in this study could be beneficial to tackling other diseases, potentially leading to the emergence of less expensive medicines for various health challenges.
12. Which is a shortcoming of the current snakebite treatments
A. They mainly rely on animal blood. B. They are effective in certain regions.
C. They can lead to serious health risks. D. They may leave toxins in patients’ bodies.
13. How did Baker’s team deal with the current challenges
A. By inventing deep learning tools. B. By identifying more snake toxins.
C. By enhancing the immune system. D. By designing AI-generated proteins.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning Baker’s new study
A. Its advantages. B. Its strategies. C. Its procedures. D. Its limitations.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. The existing approaches are hard to change.
B. The conventional treatments are out of date.
C. The new methods might enlighten other treatments.
D. The new antitoxins will be the core of future methods.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It all started with the gift. A few months before I began college, my parents surprised me with the one thing every young adult desires: a brand new laptop. That summer, I was glued to the screen, living in a digital world. I spent hours on social media, chatting with friends, and ignoring the real one around me. I was more concerned with the virtual interactions than the actual people and places around me. Being online was more important than anything else.
So, when I heard my dad’s plan for our family vacation that year, I was less than thrilled. “This year,” he announced, “we’re going to try something different. We’re going to a farm.”
A farm wasn’t my ideal vacation, but it was still a break from the routine. I went through the packing up and planning, barely listening to the instructions. My mind was elsewhere, on the Internet, where my conversations never stopped. I was so absorbed in my digital world that the first time I really paid attention to the real world was when we get to our destination – a remote farm.
I stared out the window to see the breathtaking views outside. The air coming through the open windows was warm and carried the fresh smell of the forest. But the view wasn’t what caught my attention. The moment I got off the car, I rushed into the farmhouse. The real shock came when I tried to check my e-mail and found that I had no Internet connection. I was standing there with a long face when I heard the laughter of three children. So, I went up to them and asked, “Is the Internet available here ”
“We have no Wi-Fi here.” a boy, named Ethan, said softly. And then he told me they were sons of the farm owner. I looked at him, too depressed to say anything. My laptop would be completely useless. I would live in the wilderness for a week with no way to connect to the online world. I was close to tears, afraid of the boredom I had to tolerate in the coming days.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Early next morning, Ethan and his brothers came to invite me to hang out with them.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Surprisingly, I never thought of my laptop that week.

【46题答案】
【答案】Dear James
I’m writing to share with you an AI course launched this term in our school. The course is all about understanding how AI works. We learn about smart machines that can think and learn like humans. We also explore how AI is used in different fields, like medicines, art, and even video games. The best part is the hands-on projects where we get to build simple AI programs ourselves.
I’m totally hooked! It’s challenging but incredibly fascinating. It’s amazing to see how AI can solve real-world problems and transform different industries. I’m learning a lot and really enjoying the process.
What do you think about all this AI stuff I’d love to hear from you.
Yours,
Li Hua

【47题答案】
【答案】Early next morning, Ethan and his brothers came to invite me to hang out with them. At first, I hesitated, still upset about the lack of the Internet. But their eager faces were hard to resist, so I reluctantly went along. Ethan led us to the hen house, and we spent a while collecting eggs, with him teaching me the gentle way to handle the hens. Later, we went to the meadow, where we chased colorful butterflies and lay on the soft grass, staring at the clouds. Despite my initial reluctance, I gradually found myself getting into the activities, drawn by their simple joys.
Surprisingly, I never thought of my laptop that week. Each day was filled with new adventures. We helped the farmhands with various tasks like milking cows and mending fences. In the evenings, we sat around a bonfire, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories. The warm company, the fresh air, and the beauty of nature made me realize how much I had been missing in my virtual world. By the time it was time to leave, I was filled with gratitude for this off-grid experience, knowing that real-life connections and the wonders of nature far surpassed the pleasure of the digital world.
