His parents had relocated the family from the city of Battambang to Siem Reap to work in the tourist trade, but got into great debts during the move.Thuch was always a bright boy and often begged his mother to allow him to studyforeign languages, but she had no money to provide lessons for him. Yet this didn’t fail the determined teenager.“I learned from tourists. When they say something, I listen. One day, two days, three days, I listened,” said Thuch. “I remember, and I say like the tourists.”Since the video was posted, Thuch and his family have received donations and offers of help from around the world.Initially, Thuch went with his mother and younger brother to Phnom Penh and was sent to BELTEI International School by a Cambodian businessman. This month, however, Thuch Salik flew to China to begin his study at Hailiang Foreign Language School in Zhejiang Province, China.Zhejiang Hailiang Charity Foundation will fully cover Thuch’s expenses until he finishes university, or even doctoral study, according to a statement from the Hailaing Education Group.The group revealed that a major factor in giving Thuch this chance to realize his dreams is due to their newly-launched “One Belt One Road” International Talent Study-in-China Philanthropic Program. As a part of this program, Hailiang will offer scholarships to talented youths in BRI countries from poor backgrounds.4.What might be the best way to learn foreign languages according to Thuch? A.Communicating with local tourists day after day.B.Receiving education at foreign language schools.C.Moving to the country speaking target languages.D.Learning from actions, and acting from learning.5.How could Thuch study at Hailiang Foreign Language School?A.He passed serious tests.B.His parents relocated the family.C.He benefited from “One Belt One Road”.D.He got help from a Cambodian businessman.6.What can we know about Thuch?A.He is natural for languages.B.He moves to China from Battambang.C.He becomes rich from the tourist trade.D.He is determined to get formal schooling.7.What does the text mainly talk about?A.A little Cambodian businessman becomes popular.B.A little trader gets rid of poverty by learning languages.C.A little Cambodian language genius moves to China.D.A little boy becomes a video star by selling souvenirs.The “junk DNA” may be useful in developing future cancer treatments, according to a new report in the journal Nature Immunology. The discovery was led by Wilmot Cancer Institute investigators and University of Rochester biologists Vera Gorbunova, Ph.D., and Andrei Seluanov, Ph.D..The DNA elements under research are known as retrotransposons (逆转录转座子). The bad side of them is that if left to run amok, they can give rise to tumors (肿瘤). Researchers, however, discovered that if they are kept in the correct balance and controlled properly, retrotransposons can cause the immune system to destroy cancer.Much of the Gorbunova and Seluanov lab’s work involves the blind mole rat (鼹鼠), which lives underground and seems unaffected by cancer. In the latest scientific paper, researchers found that the anti-cancer approaches behind retrotransposons are present in human cells, and planned to use the information to find new ways to stop cancer cell growth.They focus on rats because they are genetically similar to humans and have a diverse range of lifespans (寿命). Gorbunova and Seluanov previously discovered that blind mole rats prevent cancer by activating “concerted cell death,” but the approaches at play were a mystery. Now, the researchers believe retrotransposons may be one key piece to the puzzle. Why? Because they discovered that blind mole rats have evolved to retrotransposons to their advantage to kill cancer cells.At first the researchers believed the approaches behind retrotransposons were unique to blind mole rats. However, they found the same approaches at work in human tissue cells. The researchers still need to figure out exactly how blind mole rats have achieved the balance between activating and controlling retrotransposons. For now, though, they will focus on the power of selfish genetic elements to be, well, not so selfish.8.What is one of reasons for rats to be chosen as study topic?A.They are unaffected by cancer.B.They have overlong lifespans. C.Their genes are alike to humans.D.Their retrotransposons are unique.9.What does the underlined “amok” in paragraph 2 mean?A.Unbelievably.B.Unreasonably.C.Insensitively.D.Independently.10.What can we know about the lab’s research?A.It developed possible treatments for cancer.B.It transplanted retrotransposons into human.C.It succeeded in balancing retrotransposons.D.It removed junk genes from rats effectively.11.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.Blind Mole Rats Fight against CancerB.“Junk DNA” is a Double-Edged SwordC.Blind Mole Rats: Close Friends of HumanityD.Selfish Genetic Elements Have Great PowerWho gets to decide what is content worth posting? Content worth engaging?On social media, it’s an algorithm (算法) — a computer program that matches your particular likes and follows with others who have similar likes and follows. But even more than that, it’s based on how much content you create. If you don’t feed the social media monster on a regular basis, it refuses to expose what you post for others to see.Thus, some bloggers share heavily filtered (过滤) photos of tourist attractions on the social media and lifestyle platform to get traffic. However, this practice sometimes disappoints other users of Instagram who go to those locations after seeing the pictures.Since the bloggers don’t clearly state that their pictures are works of photography, they are considered as travel guides. After the viewers visit those places in person, they find a big gap between reality and what they have seen online, leaving them feeling frustrated.Last week, one famous app issued a statement on its social media account, admitting that some users have “over-beautified” their online travel diaries.The apology came after users complained on social media about their experience following travel guides on the app, only to find out on actual visits that the places are poles apart from the skilfully retouched images they saw. One of the most well-known cases involved the “pink beach” of Fuxian Lake in China’s southwestern Yunnan province, which often appears online in dreamy pink images, but in reality is more similar to the colour of redbricks.“If it’s OK to photoshop promotion pictures for tourist sites like this, I can turn the bushes downstairs in my neighbourhood into a Norwegian forest in any minute,” one of the most upvoted (置顶) comments on the app said. Others argued that the problem lies with the bloggers rather than the platform.12.Why do some bloggers post heavily filtered photos?A.To show their creativity.B.To get more online approval.C.To advertise tourist attractions.D.To promote the popularity of apps.13.What’s the author’s attitude to heavily filtered photos?A.Envious.B.Critical.C.Supportive.D.Frustrated.14.How can bushes downstairs in the neighbourhood be turned into a Norwegian forest? A.By shooting the forest on actual visits.B.By feeding the monster on social media.C.By finding a gap between reality and net.D.By skilfully beautifying the photo of bushes.15.Who should take responsibility for posted content according to the text?A.App users who are easily cheated.B.Unreliable bloggers and travel guides.C.The social media and lifestyle platform.D.Different netizens have different views.二、七选五Many of us have piles up boxes on albums of photos that we haven’t picked up in years. The coming New Year marks the season of renewing — the perfect time to take a trip down memory track. Here are ways to finally organize, use and clear away your family photos.___16___.

How can a doctor attack cancer with medicines that don’t damage the patient? How can an artist touch a person with a hidden message in an oil painting? This is Ruhani’s world — where the pursuit of learning leads to more learning for a self-described Renaissance teenager, who is multi-talented and has interests.Since age 11, she has been working summers in a lab at the University of North Texas Health Science Center researching cancer cells. She is testing drugs that can kill cancer cells while limiting the side effects on healthy cells. It’s a special mission guided by the heart because she lost a great aunt to leukemia (白血病) when she was in the sixth grade.“What really damaged her eventually was the treatment and the side effects of it, which kills both cancer and normal cells.” Ruhani explained. Due to this, Ruhani started her cancer research. “I wanted to find a better way to target cancer cells.”During the summer between sixth and seventh grade, Ruhani began research in the study of cancer with the help of her mother, Parmeet Jodhka, a microbiology professor, who taught her daughter the necessary biology. Working from about 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the lab, she has finally presented her findings at multiple science fairs. Her list of accomplishments is five pages long and includes placing third in Brazil’s science fair, MOSTRATEC, for her breast cancer research.“I like learning,” she said, “There is a difference between learning and studying. Studying, you are too stuck in finishing it and in turning it in. Learning, you are doing more for yourself.”4.What is Ruhani’s research aimed at?A.Testing how the cancer cells work.B.Saving her great aunt from leukemia.C.Relieving the pain of cancerous persons.D.Protecting healthy cells in cancer treatment.5.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Rouhani’s summer vacation.B.Participants at the science fairs.C.Lessons taught by Parmeet Jodhka.D.The tireless efforts on the research. 6.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?.A.Learning is the eye of the mind for all.B.Learning is more difficult than studying.C.Learning is too much of a burden to bear.D.Learning is a means of self-improvement.7.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.A Girl’s Lasting Pursuit of Learning B.New Birth of a Young ProfessorC.Success of a Well-rounded Teenager D.Stimulation of Students’ CuriosityHave you ever seen your cat or dog eating grass? They do so because it can help their digestion, and many wild species use natural substances to prevent and control diseases. This is called “zoo pharmacognosy” or, more commonly, animal self-medication.Scientists have discovered that tamarin monkeys use a specific tree resin (树脂) as medicine. In the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, scientists followed several groups of them to collect data. During one of these daily studies, tamarin monkeys were observed rubbing their bodies on the trunk of a tree. At first, researchers thought that they were marking their territory, a common behaviour in this species. Botanical experts later confirmed that the tree was a species of cabreuva, which is well known for its medical properties.Researchers decided to place camera-traps in different sites at the foot of the tree to record future visits by tamarin monkeys. The records surprisingly showed that many animals living in the forest visited it. Totally, ten species were observed. For many of them, it was the first time that behaviors similar to self-medication had been observed. More surprisingly, one species spread resin on each other’s fur in pairs. In general, the species seemed to specifically visit the tree to acquire the resin and seemingly benefit from it, either healing their wounds or fighting back parasites (寄生虫).While further studies are needed to identify the properties of the resin and thus confirm that this is indeed self-medication, the use of it suggests that cabreuva represents a common and universal drugstore for the residents of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. It is likely to be avaluable resource helping the species maintain their magnitude by improving their health.This discovery could have an important protection influence, as the disappearance of some trees could potentially affect the survival of some animals.8.Why do tamarin monkeys rub themselves against the tree?A.They are trying to cure diseases.B.They would like to digest what they eat.C.They feel like occupying the land.D.They are attracting companions’attention.9.What do researchers find through camera-traps?A.Many animals copy monkeys’ behaviors.B.Animals can help each other clean the fur.C.The cabreduva is the habitat of tamarin monkeys.D.Resin can be used as medicine for some animals10.What does the underlined word “magnitude” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Populations.B.Characteristics.C.Similarities.D.Flexibilities. 11.What is the possible significance of the discovery?A.Promoting evolution of creatures.B.Increasing the production of resin.C.Contributing to forest conservation.D.Motivating the study of monkeys’ diet.Adding game-like elements to non-game activities is part of app design. Streaks (计数器) encourage users to log into products each day. Medals reward them for completing tasks. Leaderboards add the spice of competition.Such features can help others stay motivated while achieving a goal they find difficult to stick to. When Duolingo, a language-learning app, went public in 2021, it was clear that game-like features play a crucial role in keeping its users engaged.But as You’ve Been Played, a new book by a game designer Adrian Hon notes, firms should be very careful about how they gamify experiences. If getting gamification wrong, you can annoy both customers and employees.For customers, the obvious dangers — annoying people with constant notices about streaks, or discouraging them by showing how low down a leaderboard they sit — are not the only ones. Somtimes, some activities surely need added “fun”. For instance, apps designed to encourage people to save money can happily use gamified features like money jars to track progress. However, some activities really don’t need added “fun”. One reading app offers tounlock animations (动画) if users hit certain reading landmarks; if you present reading as time-consuming, you are telling readers they are suffering.For employees, turning repetitive work into video games is a technique that Amazon has reportedly used to represent workers’ progress. Yet these ideas may cause negative impact. Forced rankings motivate some people while stressing others out.

report published in the journal Royal Society Open Science,researchers at the University of California examined hundreds of thousands of songs and classified them by their mood."‘Happiness’is going down,‘sadness’is going up,and at the same time,the songs are becoming more ‘danceable’and more ‘party-like,’"co-author Natalia L.Komarova told The Associated Press.The study found songs in 2014 like "Stay With Me"by Sam Smith,"Whispers" by Passenger and "Unmissable" by Gorgon City to have a "low happiness" trend.However,tracks from 1985 like "Glory Days" by Bruce Springsteen,"Would I Lie To You?" by Eurythmics and "Freedom"by Wham had a high "happiness" trend."The public seems to prefer happier songs,even though more and more unhappy songs are being released each year," the researchers wrote.Apart from the emotional trends,researcheis discovered that dance and pop were the most successful styles of music and that there was a "clear downward trend",with the popularity oF rock beginning in the early 2000s."So it looks like,while the overall mood is becoming less happy,people seem to want to forget it all and dance," Komarova wrote in an email.It was also found that the "maleness" of songs——the frequency of male singers in popular music——had decreased during the last 30 years "Successful songs are characterised by a larger percentage of female artists compared to all songs,"they Wrote.This discovery appears at a time when the convcrsation around sex equality in the music industry is at its height,with more male artists and songwriters.28.The researchers examined lots of songs to .A.find songs for dance and partyB.choose songs for a journalC.release more songsD.know better about songs29.Whose music style tends to bring you more happiness?A.Natalia L.Komarova’s.B.Sam Smith’s.C.Gorgon City’s.D.Bruce Springsteen’s.30.What do we know about songs over the past three decades?A.Rock became popular in the early 2000s.B.Fewer unhappy songs come to light every year.C.Male singers are better at perrorming pop music.D.Female artists are less skilled in writing songs.31.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Pop Music Is Getting SadderB.Music Calls for Sex EqualityC.Pop Music Has a Long HistoryD.Music Industry Is Going DownDA new study shows that rising levels of planet-warming gases may reduce important nutrients (营养物质)in food cropsResearchers studied the effects of carbon dioxide on rice,In the experiment,scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in China and Japan.They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century.Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had,on average,13 t0 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein(蛋白质)The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc than rice grown under normal conditions However,vitamin E leveLs increased by about 13 percent on average.The researchers said the effects of planet-warming gases would be most sevcre for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries.These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets.That includes abour 600 million people in Indonesia,Cambodia,Myanmar,Bangladesh,Laos and other nations,mainly in Southeast Asia.Other studies have shown that higher temperatures from climate change and weather extremes will reduce food production.But scientists are finding that rising levcls of carbon dioxide and other planet-warming gases threaten food quality.Earlier studies showed that wheat,rice,field peas and soybeans grown under high carbon dioxide conditions all had Iower levels of protein and mincrais.Scientists predicted that almost 150 million people might be at risk of having too little protein or zinc in their diet by 2050.The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change.That is to grow different forms of rice that can adapt to higher carbon dioxide levels.32.Growing rice under high carbon dioxide conditions may____.A.increase iron in the riceB.make it less nutritiousC.cause losses of Vitamin ED.make it more delicious33.How can people reduce the nutritional harm of climate change?A.By importing rice from China and Japan.B.By taking other kinds of food instead of rice.C.By avoiding eating rice from Southeast Asia.D.By growing rice suitable for the environment.34.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text?A.To infom readers what nurrients food crops contain.B.To call on people to care for the planet they live on.C.To share the results of some studies on people’s diets.D.To tell readers where food crops are mainly produced.35.In which part of a magazine can you read the text?A.Advertisements.B.Arts and culture.C.Science report.D.Business news.笫二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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。
