1.dating 考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作状语,date和逻辑主语shuttlecock kicking为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填dating。
2.stores 考查名词复数。store为可数名词,意为“商店”,结合句意可知,此处应为名词复数形式。故填stores。
3.is needed 考查动词时态和语态。此处为谓语动词的填入,主语a piece of cloth wrapped around a coin和动词need为被动关系,结合句意可知,该句为陈述客观事实,所以为一般现在时。故填is needed。
4.whose 考查定语从句。此处为关系代词whose引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词some feathers在从句中作function的定语成分。故填whose。
5.are 考查动词时态和主谓一致。该句为there be句型,其谓语动词遵循主谓一致的就近原则,主语a great number of variations为复数意义名词,所以为动词复数形式,讲述事实用一般现在时。故填are。
6.the 考查冠词。此处构成the other,特指“另一只脚”,所以此处为定冠词the的填入。故填the。
7.fairly 考查副词。由副词修饰形容词可知,此处为副词fairly作状语修饰形容词wonderful。故填fairly。
8.beneficial 考查形容词。此处为形容词短语be beneficial to“对……有益”,满足句意要求。故填beneficial。
9.to play 考查非谓语动词。此处为固定短语“be adj.+ to do”“做某事是怎样的”,所以此处为动词不定式形式作状语。故填to play。
10.to 考查介词。此处为动词短语appeal to“吸引”,满足句意要求,所以此处为介词to的填入。故填to。

【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是一个科研团队开发了 HuggieBot 3.0的仿生机器人,可以提供非常逼真的类似于人类的拥抱,文章重点介绍了HuggieBot 3.0的研发历程和相关特色。
1.C 词义猜测题。根据画线词前半句“Alexis E. Block and her colleagues have been involved in the HuggieBot project for years…”及本段内容可知,本段主要讲述Alexis和她的同事们多年以来一直在参与HuggieBot项目的研究,努力成为该机器人项目的开发者。所以trailblazers为“开拓者;先驱”之意,与pioneers意思相近。故选C。
2.C 段落大意题。根据第二段中“It features a custom sensing system called ‘HuggieChest’ consisting of two inflated(膨胀的) parts to imitate a soft chest.”和“As a hug takes place, a pressure sensor and microphone inside the artificial chest detect human touch and begin transmitting data via a board to a Robot Operating System (ROS)-based computer located in the HuggieBot 3.0’s 3D-printed head.”可知,这段话主要讲的是HuggieBot 3.0的工作原理。故选C。
3.D 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The HuggieBot 2.0 took the project a step further by integrating sensing perception, but the 3.0 version is the most advanced version with five added hugging commandments to deliver a human-like hugging experience.”可知,HuggieBot 3.0的特点是它提供了真实的拥抱体验。故选D。

6.C 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,eDNA采样的优势在于它能提高对不同研究环境的适应性,这与选项C的描述相符。故选C项。
7.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“Imagine a future where eDNA data could be collected from the most remote oceans by autonomous vehicles, analysed by the drone (无人机) or on board a research vessel, and integrated with other monitoring data so marine managers and the public can see near-real-time data about the condition of the ocean.”可知,eDNA数据在未来可以应用于为海洋监管提供统计数据。故选D项。
8.A 主旨大意题。第一段提到“Figuring out biodiversity patterns and detecting rare or just-good-at-hiding species has long posed challenges for ecosystem monitoring and conservation efforts. Traditional survey methods are labour intensive and cover limited areas. Now, emerging environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques open new possibilities.”,随后文章详细介绍了eDNA技术在生物多样性监测中的优势和应用。选项A.“New biodiversity monitoring techniques are around the corner.”与文章的主旨相符,文章主要介绍了eDNA这一新的生物多样性监测技术。可知,文章主要是讲新的生物多样性监测技术即将问世。故选A项。Period Five Grammar

Hugging probably isn’t the first thing when thinking about what robots could help humankind with. Alexis E. Block and her colleagues have been involved in the HuggieBot project for years, trying to be trailblazers of a robot that could deliver human-like hugs.
The creators of HuggieBot 3.0 claim that it is “the first fully autonomous human-sized hugging robot”. It features a custom sensing system called “HuggieChest” consisting of two inflated (膨胀的) parts to imitate a soft chest. But there’s a lot more than a soft chest to the HuggieBot 3.0. The advanced robot delivers hugs using a pair of arms mounted to a custom metal frame (框架) that were selected for being human-like, quiet, and safe. As a hug takes place, a pressure sensor and microphone inside the artificial chest detect human touch and begin transmitting data via a board to a Robot Operating System (ROS)-based computer located in the HuggieBot 3.0’s 3D-printed head.
The team used feedback from 512 real people over 32 trials to train a machine learning system. “The HuggieBot 3.0 can stay still, move slightly vertically (垂直地), tap or pat a person’s back and squeeze with varying degrees of pressure,” the team wrote in a recent study.
Alexis E. Block started working on the original HuggieBot back in 2016. The first version was built on six “hugging commandments” to autonomously enter into and end a hug. The HuggieBot 2.0 took the project a step further by integrating sensing perception, but the 3.0 version is the most advanced version with five added hugging commandments to deliver a human-like hugging experience.
In a recent test, 12 participants who hugged the robot for longer declared that they felt it was “significantly nicer to hug” than previous ones.
The HuggieBot 3.0 isn’t perfect, and its creators point out that it isn’t quite like hugging a real person just yet, but they are already working on a fourth version that should come with improved hug positioning and techniques. They hope that one day HuggieBot will be able to take the place of the sensation of human hugging to perfection.
( )1.What does the underlined word “trailblazers” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A.Trackers. B.Protectors.
C.Pioneers. D.Critics.
( )2.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about HuggieBot 3.0
A.Its designing process.
B.Its main function.
C.Its working principle.
D.Its practical usage.
( )3.What’s special about HuggieBot 3.0
A.It works fully autonomously.
B.It perceives people’s senses.
C.It pats and squeezes a person gently.
D.It offers human-like hugging experiences.

A.Promising. B.Far-reaching.
C.Profitable. D.Uncertain.

Figuring out biodiversity patterns and detecting rare or just-good-at-hiding species has long posed challenges for ecosystem monitoring and conservation efforts. Traditional survey methods are labour intensive and cover limited areas. Now, emerging environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques open new possibilities.
Scientists collect water or soil samples from an environment and extract any DNA traces left behind by organisms. This is the environmental DNA (eDNA). They then use one of the two analysis methods—quantitative PCR (qPCR) or DNA sequencing. Similar to COVID tests, qPCR is used to detect if a specific species’ DNA is in the sample. For example, researchers tested river water eDNA to see if endangered fish X was present. When it was detected, they confirmed that the fish lived in that river without directly seeing it. DNA sequencing analyses all DNA in the sample at once. Scientists can then match the DNA barcodes to databases to identify which species were in the sampled environment.
Although eDNA sampling cannot identify new species or those only known from photos and videos if they are not already listed in the reference databases, the real power of it lies in its ability to capture a wide range of organisms. With just one sample, scientists can detect all kinds of living things, from bacteria to whales, in almost any environment where life exists, including the deep sea and underground caves. One of the most significant advantages of eDNA sampling is that it allows scientists to detect species that are difficult to see or capture. This is particularly useful when studying rare or very small species, or when working in environments like dark water where visibility is limited.
This is just the start. Imagine a future where eDNA data could be collected from the most remote oceans by autonomous vehicles, analysed by the drone (无人机) or on board a research vessel, and integrated with other monitoring data so marine managers and the public can see near-real-time data about the condition of the ocean. Science fiction Not any more.
( )5.What can we infer from Paragraph 1
A.Finding out species diversity is difficult for related scientists.
B.The previous research methods are completely depend on labour.
C.eDNA techniques could make up for some limitations posed by the traditional one.
D.eDNA techniques have already substituted traditional survey methods.
( )6.What’s the advantage of eDNA sampling
A.It can detect species from photos and videos.
B.It can help scientists capture endangered species.
C.It improves adaptability to different researching environments.
D.It can identify any living creature with a sample of it.
( )7.What could eDNA data be applied to in the future
A.Studying microbial communities.
B.Analysing diversity changes over time.
C.Collecting species in new environments.
D.Offering statistics for ocean supervision.
( )8.What’s the main idea of the text

合成形容词(compound adjectives)是由两个或多个词组合而成的形
容词,用于描述名词的特征。合成形容词通常通过连字符连接,以
避免歧义并使其更易于理解。
(1)常见的合成形容词类型
①形容词+形容词 如:blue-green; bitter-sweet
②名词+形容词 如:business-related; sugar-free
③副词+形容词 如:well-known
(2)使用合成形容词的注意事项
①连字符:在合成形容词中使用连字符可以帮助清晰地传达意思。
例如,“high-quality”表示“高质量的”,而“high quality”在某些情况下
可能会引起误解。
②位置:合成形容词通常放在名词前面,作为修饰词。如:
a well-respected author
the high-speed train
