Do you know how many kinds of plants and animals 21_____ in the world Experts believe there are between 8 and 14 million, but right now we only know about 1.5 million. However, scientists 22_____ new plant and animal species (物种) all the time-and that's good news for us.
In 2009, a university professor 23_____ Christopher Austin and his student Eric Rittmeyer discovered a new animal species. They were in Papua New Guinea, studying the wildlife on the island. One evening, they were in the jungle listening to animal sounds. The most common sound was the noise of frogs croaking loudly. But there was another sound-a much softer, high-pitched one that sounded like it came from something much smaller.
At first, they couldn't locate the sound, but after some time, they realized it came from the ground. They searched through the grass and dead leaves carefully, but what they found surprised them. It was a tiny frog just seven millimeters(微米) long. "This frog has a call 24_____ doesn't sound like a frog at all, "said Austin. The frog they discovered was the smallest in the world!
Researchers believe that frogs are important because they help keep the environment clean. We can also use them to create new medicines. Whenever we find a new species, we learn new things. For that reason, scientists work very hard to find new plants and animals every day. But their jobs are getting more difficult. The forests that these animals live in are disappearing quickly. And,sadly,25_____ are the animals.
21. A. are there B. there be C. there is D. there are
22. A. find B. will find C. are finding D. have found
23. A. named B. was named C. name D. naming

The history of kite making and flying in the city 29_____ over 2,000 years. Various kite designs can be seen during the festival. Traditional shapes include fish, birds, butterflies and dragons. There are also more modern and innovative styles. For example, in 2019, visitors were amazed by the kite version of China's Tiangong Space Station. These kites showcase the excellent skills of local kite makers. The event features a big parade. People from around the world can display their kites. 30_____ visitors can try their hand at kite making in many workshops.

On February 4, Wang Yujia, 37, became the first Chinese musician to win the Grammy Award for the best classical instrumental solo(独奏奖) category.
Wang's special position in the classical music world is marked by her excellent skills. In January 2023, Wang presented a three and a half hours' show in New York, which was described by the New York Times as a "once-in-a-lifetime "musical event Among the four piano concertos (协奏曲) Wang played, Piano Concerto No. 3, known as one of"the hardest concertos", challenges musicians with all kinds of skills. Cyril Smith from Britain once said that it required the strength of shoveling (铲) 10 tons of coal to play the concerto. Moreover, the piece requires the musician to show a great number of feelings and themes including sadness, heroism and happiness.
Although there were all the great challenges, Wang didn't find it a problem to complete the music. "There are big physical challenges on the piano, but it is even harder to use special skills to finish the work. That's what is really fun, "Wang told China Daily.
The fashionable musician is also known for the bright colours, brave designs of her clothes and wearing 10 cm high heels (高跟鞋) on the show. This caused many reviews against her in the past, with some saying she wanted to attract people. But Wang is not afraid of being true to herself, saying to The Guardian, "If the music is beautiful and makes people happy, why not dress to fit It's about power of music."
She hopes people notice that below the surface is her great love for classical music. "The more I play a concerto, the more to be found. It's like a long-term exploration," Wang said.

DIY needs creative minds. To be creative means to be in love with life.
Danielle Hudson grew up in a very creative family. "Mum and dad made all our furniture," she says. "Not because we couldn't afford it, they just preferred making items to buying them. So visits to city furniture shops nearby just weren't part of my childhood." When Daniella visited a design show with her class at the age of ten, she realized she wanted to follow her parents' example. "There were so many different styles of tables and chairs there," she says. Since that day, she's been making furniture. "I've learned by giving mum and dad a hand, and through watching videos on the Internet," she adds.
Her first piece was a table, made soon after visiting the show. It was similar to one she had seen there. "They had furniture from the last hundred years, and I copied a 1920s design," says Daniella. "Sadly, no one has wanted tables like that for years. I was pleased with the quality of my work, though. I've painted it recently because the wood I chose at the start was too dark."
Daniella started selling her furniture at a local market. "I spent most of my free time inside, so this gave me the chance to get some fresh air and find out what people thought about my designs." Judging by how many items Daniella sold, they thought it was pretty good. "In the end, I had to give up," says Danielle, "I'd also started an Internet business, which was doing so well. It was taking up every spare minute I had. The market closed down just after that anyway."
Recently, Danielle was asked to take part in a local design show. "One of the organizers had bought one of my pieces off the Internet. I couldn't believe it when she told me there would be a thousand visitors," she says. Instead of worrying about this, Daniella was excited by the chance. "T was amazed she thought my work was good enough," Daniella says. "I had little idea what visitors would think about it. My furniture is quite different from the designers whose work I've seen in magazines--mine is more traditional." But Daniella received lots of orders at the show and the future is looking bright for this young design star.
51. What made Daniella interested in creating furniture
A. Helping her parents make their own furniture.
B. Visiting furniture shops in a city near her home.
C. Watching online videos of how to make furniture.
D. Seeing different kinds of furniture on a school trip.
52. What does Daniella say about the first furniture she made
A It wasn't very well-made.
B. It wasn't a fashionable piece.
C. She still likes the colour she used.
D. She designed the table herself.
53. Why did Danielle stop selling her furniture at a market
A. The market closed down.
B. Too few people were buying it.
C. She no longer had enough time.
D. She didn't like working outdoors.
54. How did Danielle feel when she was invited to her first design show
A. She felt confident her designs would be popular.
B. She felt curious about seeing other designers' works.
C. She felt worried about how many people would be there.
D. She felt surprised someone was impressed by her furniture.
55. What would Daniella say in an advertisement for her company
A. I'm a young furniture designer, whose works have appeared in several design shows and are sold in many city furniture shops.
B. I've created furniture since I was just ten years old. Many of the thousand visitors to a recent design show liked my work.
C. After starting my business at a local market, I've finally opened my own store in a local city.
D. I'm interested in the history of furniture but my designs are very modern and use the latest styles.

The world's first human-like robot half-marathon(半程马拉松) was held in Beijing on 19 April. Amazingly, 20 robots joined about 12,000 human runners in the race.
The robots were different, from the 180-centimeter-tall "Tiangong Ultra" to the 75-centimeter-tall"Little Giant". They had human-like looks and ran on two legs. Each robot started at a slightly different time so that they would not bump into each other. To give each robot the best chance, each travelled with support workers. Just as human runners needed to get energy from water, the robots were allowed to get new batteries during the panies were also allowed to replace(替换) their robots when they could no longer run.
The first robot to cross the finishing line was Tiangong Ultra. It finished the race in 2 hours, 40 minutes and 42 seconds, while the winner of the men's race finished in 1 hour and 2 minutes. To the robots, the most important thing was not to win, but to finish, At last, six of the robots crossed the finishing line.
The race was a success, even for the robots who didn't finish. Their efforts will help their developers improve future human-like robots. The race also marked the first time in human history--human-like robots have tried a half-marathon.
However, the marathon also displayed some weaknesses of the robots. They needed people to change their batteries, prevent falls, and even control them. These challenges show hidden problems in the field: behaving like humans requires further work in materials science, storing power and AI learning abilities.
In the future, as AI gets smarter, the gap (差距) between humans and machines will narrow. For China, developing these human-like robots isn't just about making them run faster--it's about which country can make full use of science and technology to take the lead in the world. And in that marathon, every fall and hard-won step matter.

Can you imagine a world without money, Or a world without even the idea of money Well, thousands of years ago, money was not used at all. 81. I_____, humans had the "barter" (物物交换) system, this meant if people wanted something they weren't able to make or produce 82_____ they had to find someone who could produce it Then they had to 83. g_____that person something in exchange. It wasn't only goods that were bartered, it was 84. s______too: making wheels, repairing leather, keeping cows.
Later, certain things came to be used as money because everyone would take these things in exchange. They were always 85.n______. For example, cows, grains, salt and beads were all used as money at some time. It is difficult for us to imagine buying a horse, for example, with bags of salt but that is 86.e______what happened. Salt, in fact, was so 87.v_____ that some soldiers were paid in it it is said that the word "salary" came from this practice. Finally, all these kinds of money were replaced (取代)by pieces of metal, especially gold and silver. Later on, people made coins, which had a consistent (一致的) purity and weight, and represented certain amounts of various objects. So a certain number of coins represented a cow, or 50 pounds of rice, and so on.
Today, of course, we have notes and coins issued (发行)by the government, and everyone 88. a______this as money. Money makes it possible to trade in our modem world. You might sometimes find a friend who you can do a direct trade with - perhaps one skateboard or game for another. But mostly this is impossible. Money also allows us to save. It would be difficult to save up lots of cows until you wanted to spend them. 89. W_____would you put them while you saved Money is also a measure (衡量) of value. If you have ever done jobs around the house to earn money to buy something like a bicycle, you will have learnt the value of what you were 90. s____for by how much work you had to do.
Money plays an important role in our lives. So get your money's worth.

We may depend too much on AI, which makes us lazy in thinking. So we should manage time wisely and think actively and critically. Besides, AI may reduce our face-to-face communication. We need to take part in more school activities and talk with classmates often. What's more, AI may bring wrong information. We should check facts carefully and not believe everything AI says.
Let's use AI properly to make it a good helper for our study!
Thank you
