As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration.
Zhoukoudian, Beijing
Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago.
Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province
As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years.
The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers.
The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province
The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC).
Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world.
The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province
Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs.
Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire.

I once was a quick-tempered boy. If I mumbled (嘟哝), I got angry. When I got angry, I’d yell at anyone nearby, not caring who they were or what they were doing. Then they would make fun of me. Eventually, many people around me disliked me because of this. They started avoiding me. Even though I felt like I needed to improve myself, I didn’t know how.
My father was patient with me and one day he gave me a basket full of nails (钉子) and a hammer (铁锤). Every time I got angry, he advised me to avoid scolding (责骂) the people involved and hammer a nail into the wooden fence behind the house until I calmed down. The first day, I hammered about 50 nails into the fence. As the days passed, I learned to control my hurtful speech in front of those who made me angry. Only when I got angry should I go and hammer the nails immediately!
Eventually, before I could take the basket and hammer and go to the fence, my anger cooled and I started hammering nails into the fence less. In a few days, I no longer felt the need to hammer nails into the fence. I went to my father and told him the details. Although he was happy inside, he didn’t show it. He gave me a nail puller and asked me to pull out the nails I had hammered into the fence one by one. It took me a whole day to pull them all out. After pulling out all the nails, my father and I went to see the fence. My father showed me the scars where the nails had been pulled out from the fence and said, “When you get angry, you lose your mind and say things like this nail. Even if you apologize for speaking as if you were pulling out a nail, the wound left by those words is just as hard to heal as the scar from this nail.”
I too understood the concept well, changed, grew up to respect my village, and achieved many successes in life.
24．What did the boy do when he got angry at the beginning
A．He behaved rudely to people around. B．He apologized to the people he had hurt.
C．He avoided people who made him angry. D．He immediately hammered nails into the fence.
25．Why did the boy’s father give him nails and a hammer
A．To help him control his anger. B．To punish him for his bad behavior.
C．To teach him how to repair the fence. D．To make him stronger by hammering nails.
26．How did the father react when the boy stopped hammering nails
A．He apologized to the boy. B．He showed his inner happiness.
C．He asked the boy to remove the nails. D．He told the boy to repair the damaged fence.
27．Which best summarizes the main lesson of this story
A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Time heals all wounds.
C．Practice makes perfect. D．What’s done cannot be undone.
C
Around the world there are some festivals that for some of us may sound bizarre .
In England they celebrate the rolling cheese race, which occurs every year during the last Monday in May. This festival’s characteristic is a contest where an official rolls cheese down a steep hill and festival goers go chasing after it. The winner is the first one to reach and catch the cheese.
Another festival celebrated in England is the world championship of grimaces (鬼脸). It is a celebration that dates back to 1297 and is celebrated during the month of September. The task is to perform the best grimace using anything you can to win.
The worldwide championship of wife lifting is celebrated in Finland. The game is based on Viking traditions where a man should carry away his neighbour’s wife. According to the rules, any woman above 17 is considered as a wife, so if you are within this age, take care while visiting this country during the month of July.
Many of you have watched Pirates of the Caribbean and have known something about pirates. The 19th of September has been declared worldwide as the day to talk like a pirate. Plenty of people have celebrated it thanks to the publicity (宣传) on the Internet.
First staged in 1998, the Boryeong Mud Festival is an attraction that pulls more than a million visitors to the South Korean city. As you all know, the town is said to be rich in minerals, so there is no shortage of mud. Mud is trucked onto Daecheon Beach for tourists and locals to enjoy the festival to their best.
The Monkey Buffet Festival is held in Thailand to develop tourism. It’s an annual feast held for about 600 monkeys. The Monkey Buffet Festival is held in honor of the Hindu gods Ram and Hanuman and involves 3,000 kilograms of vegetables and fruits being laid out for monkeys to stuff themselves.

Between 2019 and 2023, seven ticks not native to the United States entered Connecticut, according to a new study published in the journal iScience. They came from a variety of countries as far away as Germany, Guatemala, Tanzania, Brazil, Scotland, and Poland.
While the study didn’t find evidence of these invasive ticks bringing new diseases to the U.S., experts say they could one day soon. Meanwhile, the study does suggest they could drive a rise in tick-related diseases already seen in the U.S., as they found these ticks can carry pathogens similar to those carried by native ticks.
Two invasive tick species from Central America tested positive for a bacteria similar to Rocky Mountain spotted fever, a disease that can cause fever, vomiting, muscle pain, and even death if untreated.
It’s part of an alarming trend: cases of tick-borne disease in the U.S. jumped from about 23,000 in 2004 to around 71,000 cases in 2022.
“Prior to 2018, here in the northeastern U.S… we didn’t have cases of Rocky Mountain spotted fever. But since 2018, we are seeing a number of up to ten cases of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in Connecticut. And we have had mortalities as a result,” says Yale University epidemiologist Goudarz Molaei, co-author of the new study.
Experts say identifying all the ways ticks can spread and carry diseases is critical to reducing the number of people who become seriously ill after being bitten. Their spread is a concern — during the last 50 years, over 140 non-native tick species have been brought into the U.S., hitching a ride on livestock, exotic pets, or people. At the same time, climate change has expanded the habitat ticks can live in.
If more invasive ticks establish U.S. populations, “it is just a matter of time that these invasive ticks will either pick up local pathogens or native pathogens that circulate in the U.S., or they start carrying the pathogens that they transmit in their native range,” says Molaei.
Ticks pick up diseases after biting animal hosts like deer. Then, these diseases can be transmitted to other organisms.
32．What can we learn about the seven non-native ticks in Connecticut
A．They all came from European countries.
B．They have brought new diseases to the U.S.
C．They can carry pathogens similar to native ticks.
D．They were first found in the U.S. before 2019.
33．How did the number of tick-borne disease cases in the U.S. change from 2004 to 2022
A．It decreased slightly. B．It remained almost the same.
C．It increased significantly. D．It first rose and then fell.
34．What is one of the reasons for the spread of non-native ticks in the U.S.
A．The decrease in livestock. B．The expansion of their habitat due to climate change.
C．The reduction in exotic pet trading. D．The improvement of medical conditions.
35．What does Goudarz Molaei imply about invasive ticks
A．They will not transmit diseases in the U.S. B．They may pick up local pathogens over time.
C．They are less dangerous than native ticks. D．They will disappear from the U.S. soon.

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Smile: It Is Good For You
Research reveals that showing you’re happy can enhance both physical and mental health. And here is why.
Smiling is a stress reliever. A University of Kansas study found that participants who were asked to smile during stressful tasks had lower heart rates during stress recovery. So it seems even forcing yourself to look happy helps to manage tricky situations.
Smiling may lower blood pressure. The benefits of smile go beyond stress reduction. 36 Another research has shown that blood pressure doesn’t rise when people are exposed to humour.
Smiling boosts immunity. A smile releases certain hormones in the brain, including serotonin, which is associated with an improvement in immune function. Depression, meanwhile, can weaken your immune system. 37
A smile can reduce your pain. Being amused also prompts the release of endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. 38 In one study, participants who smiled while being injected reported 40 percent less pain.
39 It seems smiling really can boost your mood, rather than simply being a response to feeling happy. A 2022 study of 3,878 participants in 19 countries found people’s happiness rating was higher when they smiled.
Of course, smiling endears you to others and helps you to connect with them. 40 Give yourself cues to remind you to smile — when you see someone laughing or you’re making a cup of tea — or put a note on your phone as a reminder. Think of something pleasurable, such as a favourite person, place or memory when you smile. You will harvest the rewards of your continuous efforts.
A．Looking happy encourages positivity.
B．Endorphins are the body’s natural painkillers.
C．Those who have the broadest smile live longer.
D．If you practise enough, it’ll become second nature.
E．So, it makes sense to smile more if you want to stay well.
F．It is also likely to have a knock-on effect on blood pressure.
G．It not only releases endorphins but also boosts your immune system.

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。
Ten-year-old Sami loved to visit his grandfather’s house. The house was near the beautiful blue sea. At the seaside stood thick and tall palm trees with green coconuts hanging from them. When the coconuts fell down, Sami would break them open and drink the coconut water. Sami liked to play under the trees. It was always great fun to spend the holidays at Grandpa’s place.
This winter vacation, Sami was surprised when he came to his grandfather’s village. There were hardly any trees left. He saw houses built near the sea. People had cut down many palm trees and there was hardly any greenery left.
Grandpa’s house was different. He never allowed his trees to be cut. He hugged each palm tree in his courtyard. He also named the two big trees near the front door — one was Petu, and the other Betu. He had planted them with his own hands and today they had become large, massive trees with thick trunks. They were tall and green and gave the sweetest, juicest coconuts.
One night, Sami was awakened by a strange sound. He could not sleep. He tossed (辗转) and turned in bed.
Suddenly, the ground shook as if the earth was splitting. He sat up straight and then ran to Grandpa. He clung (附着) to his grandpa tightly. Grandpa cried out, “It’s an earthquake It’s an earthquake” They ran outside the house. They thought that would be safe.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound; the earth was not splitting but the sea was roaring. People were shouting, screaming and crying, “The sea is rising. The sea is rising.” The villagers started running away from the beach. Sami watched dumbstruck (呆若木鸡).
The waves were rising higher and higher. Sami thought, “How big the waves are” He went into the house again and saw water coming in from all sides. He was scared.
Sami remembered his mother telling him long ago, “You must always get out of the house if the floods come too near.” He ran outside the house with Grandpa. But the water came surging (汹涌) in.
Waves about twelve meters high came rushing in, drowning everything. Water was all around and everywhere.
Paragraph 1: Grandpa held Sami’s hand tightly but a huge wave separated them.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: “Sami, Sami” Grandpa cried. “Don’t be scared, little one, come to me, quickly.”

33．细节理解题。根据第四段“It’s part of an alarming trend: cases of tick-borne disease in the U.S. jumped from about 23,000 in 2004 to around 71,000 cases in 2022.(这是令人担忧的趋势的一部分：美国蜱虫传播疾病的病例从2004年的约23,000例跃升至2022年的约71,000例)”可知，2004年至2022年，美国蜱虫传播疾病的病例数量显著增加。故选C。
34．细节理解题。根据第六段“At the same time, climate change has expanded the habitat ticks can live in.(与此同时，气候变化扩大了蜱虫的栖息地)”可知，气候变化扩大了蜱虫的栖息地，这是非本地蜱虫在美国传播的原因之一。故选B。

语法填空：【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本文讲述了中国钢琴家郎朗在瑞士中部最高的火车站，于雪山之巅演奏了《爱之梦》《茉莉花》和《哥德堡变奏曲》等曲目。此次演出受到观众热烈欢迎，促进了中欧文化交流，展现了郎朗在古典音乐界的地位以及他通过音乐增进文化理解的期望。
56．考查副词。句意：这场演出受到了观众的热烈欢迎。句中 welcomed 为动词，需用副词来修饰，warm是形容词，其副词形式为warmly，“warmly welcomed”表示“热烈欢迎”，符合句子语境。故填warmly。
57．考查名词复数。句意：郎朗是古典音乐界的领军音乐家之一。“one of the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数”是常见结构，表示“最……之一”，musician意为“音乐家”，是可数名词，这里要用复数形式musicians。故填musicians。
58．考查非谓语动词。句意：尽管他在全球举办了数千场演出，但这是他第一次在雪山之巅弹奏钢琴。“It is/was one's first time to do sth.”是固定句型，意思是“这是某人第一次做某事”，所以这里要用动词不定式to play。故填to play。

61．考查形容词。句意：我弹奏了这首来自我自己文化的美妙曲子。这里需要一个形容词来修饰名词piece，beauty是名词，其形容词形式为beautiful，意为“美妙的，美丽的”。故填beautiful。
62．考查介词。句意：我希望通过中国音乐之美，让观众有兴趣更多地了解中国。“be interested in”是固定短语，意思是“对……感兴趣”，所以这里填in。故填in。
63．考查冠词。句意：在郎朗弹奏第三首曲子之前，他的手指有点冷，但他并不惧怕大雪和稀薄的空气。在序数词前一般要用定冠词the，表示顺序“第三”。故填the。
64．考查连词。句意：在郎朗弹奏第三首曲子之前，他的手指有点冷，但他并不惧怕大雪和稀薄的空气。前一句提到手指冷，后一句说不惧怕恶劣环境，前后形成转折关系，所以用连词but。故填but。
65．考查代词。句意：“这场演出对我意义重大。我希望我们将来能进行更多的文化交流，以便更好地相互理解，使两国之间的关系比以前更紧密，”郎朗补充道。这里作介词to的宾语，要用宾格形式，I的宾格是me。故填me。
66．One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I’m thrilled you’ll be coming to our school for exchange study! Let me share some details. We must arrive on time, keep quiet in class, and wear uniforms daily, which will ensure an orderly school life.
To improve your Chinese, I suggest reading aloud each morning to memorize vocabulary. Don’t be afraid to speak — practice makes perfect. Watching Chinese movies or listening to songs can also make learning enjoyable and boost your writing skills.
When you arrive, I can teach you how to cook simple Chinese dishes and share stories about our culture. I hope you have a wonderful experience and learn a lot. Take care — I can’t wait to see you soon!
Best wishes,
Li Hua
67．例文
Paragraph 1: Grandpa held Sami’s hand tightly but a huge wave separated them. Grandpa fought the waves and strived to catch Sami, but failed. Sami was drifted away. He struggled to keep his head above the water. The water pushed him ahead. Fortunately, he caught a palm tree in his courtyard. He panicked and screamed out to Sami but could not see him. He clung to tree tightly while the sea was all around. In hope of seeing Sami, Grandpa climbed higher up the tree. The water carried Sami round and round.（79 words）
Paragraph 12: “Sami, Sami” Grandpa cried. “Don’t be scared, little one, come to me, quickly.” “But Grandpa, I can’t swim” Another wave came with terrifying speed and force. Sami cried in despair.

Soon it was calm; both Grandpa and Sami came down the trees and rushed to hug each other, then they hugged the trees with tears of gratitude.（78 words）

Now it is time to welcome all the newcomers to International English School. You are all here to improve your business English skills. This weekend, which is your first in London, we’ll offer to help you familiarize with your new surroundings in an unusual and exciting way. So, starting with Friday, in the morning we thought you’d want to visit the city. We know that some of you have already visited a few museums in the neighbourhood, so we’ve organized a visit to one for those who are interested. At 3 pm, we’ve planned games that will help you get to know your fellow newcomers. You will all be rather tired after dinner so we thought you might like to see a film at 7 pm, which is free only to all International English School members. On Saturday we have organized a day trip to visit the historical city of Bath for the boy students. We will set off at 10 am, on board a bus we have hired for the day. Everything will be provided for you including lunch. Now on Sunday, we’ve left it up to you how you spend the day, both in the morning and the afternoon. OK, that’s all for now. Thank you.
