Climbing, I once thought, was a very manly activity, but as I found my way into this activity, I came to see that something quite different happens on the rock.
Like wild swimming, rock climbing involves you into the landscape. On the rock, I am fully focused. Eyes pay close attention, ears are alert, and hands move across the surface. Unlike walking, where I could happily wander about absent-mindedly, in climbing, attentive observation is essential.
As an arts student studying English literature, I discovered a new type of reading from outdoor climbing. Going out on to the crags (悬崖), I saw how you could learn to read the rocks and develop a vocabulary of physical movements. Good climbers knew how to adjust their bodies on to the stone. Watching them, I wanted to possess that skillful “language”.
My progress happened when I worked for the Caingorms National Park Authority. Guiding my explorations into this strange new landscape was Nan Shepherd, a lady too. Unlike the goal-directed mindset of many mountaineers, she is not concerned with peaks or personal achievement. Shepherd sees the mountain as a total environment and she celebrates the Caingorms as a place alive with plants, rocks, animals and elements. Through her generous spirit and my own curiosity, I saw that rock climbing need not be a process of testing oneself against anything. Rather, the intensity of focus could develop a person into another way of being.
Spending so much time in high and stony places has transformed my view on the world and our place in it. I have come into physical contact with processes that go way beyond the everyday. Working with gravity, geology (地质学), rhythms of weather and deep time, I gain an actual relationship with the earth. This bond lies at the heart of my passion for rock climbing. I return to the rocks, because this is where I feel in contact with our land.
4. Why does the author like rock climbing
A. It challenges her to compete with men. B. It allows her a unique attitude toward rock.
C. It teaches her how to possess a new language. D. It makes her feel connected wth the earth.
5. What does the writer find important in climbing
A. Balance. B. Concentration.
C. Determination. D. Perseverance
6. What does the writer learn from Nan Shepherd
A. Climbing goes together with nature. B. Every mountain top is within reach.
C. The best climber is the one having fun. D. You can not achieve high unless you change.
7. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Time. B. Transformation. C. The world. D. My view.
C
There are two distinctive types of electric buses making their way along Nanjing Xi Lu, one of Shanghai’s busiest roads. The first is a fleet of blue trolleybuses that serve bus route number 20, a line set up by a British-run transport company in 1928. They use poles to receive electricity from wires overhead and have kept the route running in this way for nearly a century. But while the historic electric buses are a reminder of Europe’s past technological innovation, the new buses traveling alongside them are symbols of China’s contemporary net-zero ambition. These modern electric buses powered by lithium batteries (锂电池) , were introduced in Shanghai in 2014. They offer a smoother ride, especially during starts and stops. Widely used across China, these buses are key to the country’s EV transition and are influencing the global shift towards green transportation.
The most recent data available shows that China in 2018 was still the second largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the global transport sector, responsible for 11%, and behind only the United States, which accounted for 21%. After around two decades of government support, China now boasts the world’s largest market for e-buses, making up more than 95% of global stock. At the end of 2022, China’s Ministry of Transport announced that more than three-quarters (77% or 542, 600) of all urban buses in the country were new energy vehicles. The speed of this transition was remarkable.
So far, however, the Chinese cities with the most successful e-bus introduction — such as Shenzhen, Beijing and Shanghai — all have moderate weather and are relatively flat. To take its e-bus campaign to the next level, China faces challenges. For one thing, it is difficult to bring fleets to cities such as Hong Kong, which — like London — have double-deckers. These two-storeyed vehicles are “very hard” to electrify, because they are heavier, use more energy, and so need bigger batteries, reducing the number of passengers they can carry. Cold weather is a problem, too, as it can make a battery’s charging time longer and its range shorter. The reason China has not achieved 100% electrification for its buses is its northern regions, which have cold winters, says Xue Lulu, a transportation expert at the World Resources Institute China.
8. How does the author describe the two types of electric buses in the first paragraph
A. By contrasting their historical significance and technological advancements.
B. By highlighting their roles in protecting the environment and lasting use.
C. By focusing merely on their technical details and performance.
D. By explaining their operational challenges and requirements.
9. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 mainly show
A. The global impact of carbon dioxide emissions.
B. The progress of China in reducing CO2 emissions.
C. The different emission levels of China and the USA.
D. The need for more government support in e-bus market.
10. What factor contributes to the slow adoption of electric buses in China’s northern regions
A. Poor winter weather conditions. B. Lack of transportation experts.
C. Short charging time of the battery. D. Heavier and bigger bus bodies.
11. Which column is the text most probably taken from
A. Worklife. B. Culture. C. Travel. D. Earth.
D
While scientists have many ideas, they are not certain why humans yawn(打哈欠). Still, there is one thing experts know—yawns seem to be contagious(传染)!
Have you ever caught a yawn from someone else Most people have. In fact, a person is six times more likely to yawn after seeing someone else do so. Experts have done many studies into why yawns seem to pass from person to person. As a result, they have a few theories(理论) for the reason behind it.
One possible explanation has something to do with social mirroring, which is caused by mirror neurons(镜像神经元) in the brain. These mirror neurons help the brain notice useful behavior of others and then copy it. When one person sees another yawn, his mirror neurons observe the action and consider it to be beneficial. That may cause him to yawn, too.
Another popular theory is that yawns are contagious because of social relationships. Being social creatures, humans form friendships, families and live together in groups. That’s why many people mirror others, such as smiling when another person smiles. Yawning may be just another example of this. In fact, research has shown that one is most likely to catch yawns from another person if the two share a social relationship.
The answer could even be that yawns aren’t truly contagious at all. Instead, people yawn together simply because they’re in the same environment. Experts say many things may cause yawning, including temperature and time of day. Whatever the explanation is, experts do know that contagious yawns aren’t limited to humans. One study found that lions in South Africa also caught each other’s yawns.
12. What kind of behavior may be copied by mirror neurons
A. Important and attractive. B. Useful and beneficial.
C. Hard to understand. D. Easy to copy.
13. Whose yawns are people most likely to catch according to Paragraph 4
A. Those who yawn a lot. B. Those who like smiling.
C. Those closely connected with them. D. Those sharing the same interest with them.
14. What might the author continue talking about in the following paragraph
A. Tips on how to avoid yawning in public.
B. A real explanation for contagious yawning.
C. Other examples of animals yawning together.
D. Things that may cause yawning among humans.
15. Which of the following serves as the best title
A. Why yawns are contagious B. What causes people to yawn
C. Who yawns more than others D. Why humans yawn now and then

One summer day, I decided to go for a walk in the nearby forest. I had my backpack prepared with water, food, and sunscreen. I was excited to spend some time in nature, away from the busy city.
The forest was attractive, with towering trees that seemed to touch the sky and colorful wildflowers under my feet. I walked deeper into the woods, attracted by the pleasant sounds of birds. The path I followed was winding and narrow, but I paid little attention, carried away by the beauty. I started to notice that the trees around me looked unfamiliar. Soon I found myself lost. I realized that I had no idea which way to go.
The sun was setting and I knew that I needed to find a way out before it got dark. I started walking, trying to remember which direction I had come from. But the forest was a maze (迷宫) of winding paths, and I soon found myself going in circles. Every tree looked the same, and every path seemed to lead nowhere.
The sound of leaves made me jump. Was it a wild animal My heart was racing and I tried to stay calm as I listened for other sounds. But there was only silence, broken now and then by the distant calls of birds.
As the sun set, I fully understood the seriousness of my situation. There was no food or water left. I was completely alone, lost in a wilderness that could easily devour (吞噬) me. I walked nervously, tripping over things in my path, feeling frightened with a racing heartbeat. Hours passed, or maybe only minutes. Time had lost all meaning in this place.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
But then, as I was about to give up hope, I saw a weak light in the distance.

【答案】Dear Editor,
I am writing to recommend a traditional art form that I love for your “Art of the Week” column.
The art form I would like to recommend is Chinese calligraphy. It is an ancient art form that has been practiced in China for thousands of years. It is a form of visual art that involves the use of brush and ink to create beautiful characters and symbols. I recommend Chinese calligraphy because it has been an engaging form of entertainment as well as a means of passing on Chinese history, culture and values. Therefore, the introduction of it in your column can not only enhance our cultural confidence but also promote our national pride.
I hope you will consider my recommendation and feature Chinese calligraphy in your “Art of the Week” column.
Yours,
Li Hua

【57题答案】
【答案】One possible version:
But then, as I was about to give up hope, I saw a weak light in the distance. As I came closer, the light grew brighter. It was coming from a small area in the forest. In the center stood a tiny wooden house, its windows shining warmly in the darkness. With a feeling of hope, I ran towards the house and knocked on the door. A man opened it, with his face filled with worry. “Are you lost ” he asked. I nodded, too tired to speak.
The house’s owner welcomed me inside. I sat down on a chair and the man offered me food and water. We talked for hours about his life in the forest. His eyes told me that he had found peace in that wilderness. He kindly allowed me to stay overnight at his house. As the sun rose above the treetops, I knew that it was time to leave. The man offered to guide me out of the forest. From then on, we became friends. I learned something valuable from my journey that sometimes when we are lost, we find unexpected treasures.
