AIt'll soon be the birthday of one of my closest friends, Susie. I still cannot decide what to give her. She's a rare friend because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to. I can always depend on her to be the first to arrive to give me advice when I have problems. I guess I am so lucky to have her as a friend.It's more than seven years since I first met Susie in our school. I joined the theater group and she was a director then. At first I thought she was intimidating but in the end I realized that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously. And then during practice I got a chance to know her better. In fact, she was a friendly and warm-hearted person. Soon we become good friends.I don't know exactly what to give my friend on her birthday as I believe she has everything. So it's really hard to buy her a gift she will like. This year I want something different and special but I don't know what to give. One day I searched the internet without any purpose and to my surprise there is a really lovely site where you can buy all kinds of gifts.I scanned some of their items and I found cool and exciting gifts. I chose a special personalized bracelet. I'm sure that this will look perfect on her. I put our arms as part of the design of the bracelet so that it'll remind us that we'll forever be friends. I can't wait to give her my gift but I won't tell her yet. I don't want to destroy the surprise.21. Why does the author consider Susie as a rare friend?A. Susie is good at solving problems.B. She and the author have lots of things to talk about.C. Susie is a friendly and warm-hearted person.D. She can always offer help when the author is in need.22. Finally the author found a nice gift for her friend_____A. with the help of somebody elseB. while going onlineC. while doing shopping in a storeD. without difficulty23. The author wanted to put her and her friend's names in the bracelet in order to _____.A. give her friend a big surpriseB. make the present more specialC. remind her friend of their difference between them.D. make her friend remember their friendship forever.21BIf you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc.There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar---or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice,your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.24. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills? _______A. Reading and listeningB. Reading and writingC. Writing and speakingD. Speaking and listening25. To improve your reading, when you read you should ____.A. look up all the new words in the dictionary.B. think about what you are reading activelyC. spend more time studying grammarD. copy as many words and sentences as possible26. The underlined words “come across” in paragraph3 probably be replaced by_____.A. meet by accidentB. discoverC. find on purposeD. look for27. The author seems to agree with the view that _____.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you needn’t practice liste ning if you keep in reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearingCWhen you come to London for a trip, it's best to plan a day out so as to maximize the number of things you can see. Time permitting, we can offer advice by e-mail if there's anything you particularly want to see.If you are only in London for a day, a weekend or a week, use our SHORT STAY pages where we show you how to fill as much into your days as possible.The best season to come is late Summer or Autumn —— recently we have been having Indian Summers from mid-September to the end of October with clear blue skies and 20 degree temperatures. Finally the weather breaks as the storm fronts move in off the Atlantic, then clears up for Christmas. February to April can be terrible, and the weather is very unpredictable. Ask the Meteorological office here for facts and figures but they are so often wrong.When it's raining there are plenty of museums and galleries to visit —— and the tube system is generally very good outside of rush hour.It's best for you to be near a tube station when choosing a hotel, because buses can be slow and unreliable and taxis expensive. The yellow circle line on the tube map marks the division between central and not-so-central London. Outside of that area your transport bill will rise. The best restaurants are in Islington and the southwest of London which is where the life is.28. The Meteorological office in the third paragraph is a place where_______．A. people can know what London is likeB. people can get information about tourismC. people can know what the weather is likeD. people can get information about transportation29.

Archaeological (考古学上的) finds show that the tradition started in the 6th century; it is even supposed that the beginning of paper cutting is even a few centuries earlier.Paper cuts have special importance at festivals and on holidays. To get rid of the old and bring good luck, people put up paper cuts on the windows on the Eve of the Spring Festival.Paper cuts are not produced by machine, but by hand. They are done all over China, but are different in the method in different areas. There are two methods of making paper cuts—by using scissors or knives. As the name suggests, scissors cuttings are made with scissors. Several pieces of paper (up to eight pieces) are placed together. The patterns are then cut with pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are made by putting several pieces of paper on a table. Following a pattern, the artist cuts the patterns into the paper with a knife.21教育名师原创作品In the past, paper cuts are usually made only by women and girls. They use scissors and paper to cut all kinds of pictures such as apple trees, peach blossoms, mice, fighting roosters and rabbits eating carrots.This used to be one of the skills that every girl was to master. Professional paper cutting artists are, on the other hand, almost always men who can make a living by working together inworkshops.32. How long has paper cutting lasted at least?A. About 600 years.B. About 1,500 years.C. About 2,000 years.D. About 2,700 years.33. People put up paper cuts on the windows in order to ________.A. make them look more beautifulB. show others their excellent skillsC. bring them good luck in the new yearD. sell them on the Eve of the Spring Festival34.

Little did they know that he was a spelling champion, witha trophy(奖品) at home to prove it. Cashore won the Scripps National Spelling Bee in 1954 at age14. Now 84, he’s the oldest living champi on of the contest, which dates back to 1925. As contestants from this year’s competition headed home, he reflected on his experience and the effect it had on him.Cashore credits his parents for helping him prepare for his trip to Washington, D．C．, for the spelling bee. His mother was an elementary school teacher and his father was a lab technician with a talent for taking words apart and putting them back together.When the field narrowed to two competitors, the other boy misspelled “uncinate”, which means bent like a hook. Cashore spelled it correctly, then clinched the title with the word “transept”, an architectural term for the transverse part of a cross- shaped church.Cashore, who was given $500 and an encyclopedia set, enjoyed a brief turn as a celebrity. He didn’t br ag about his accomplishment after returning to Pennsylvania, but the experience quietly shaped him in multiple ways. “It gave me much more self-confidence and also gave me asense that it’s very important to try to get things as correct as possible,” he said. “I’ve always been that way, and I still feel that way. If people are careless about spelling and writing, you wonder if they’ re careless about their thinking.”“Preparing for a spelling bee today requires more concentration and technique than it did decades ago,” Cashore said. “The vocabulary of the words are far, far more technical. The English language, in the meantime, has imported a great many words from foreign languages which were not part of the English language when I was in eighth grade,” he added.4．What can we learn about Cashore from the first two paragraphs?A．He is the best ever spelling champion.B．He prepared alone for the spelling bee.C．He used his spelling ability to help others.D．He preferred to show off his spelling talent. 5．What does the word “clinched” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A．Won.B．Declined.C．Removed.D．Gave.6．How did the spelling bee competition affect Cashore?A．It helped him start his career.B．It strengthened his confidence.C．It limited his way of thinking.D．It brought him lasting popularity.7．What should we do to prepare for today’s spelling bee according to Cashore?A．Learn multiple languages.B．Go abroad for language study.C．Be a remarkable technician.D．Try to improve relevant skills.What are the most important factors that distinguish NBA legends from the rest? When scoping out talent, scouts (星探) look for two main things: outstanding previous performance and “unexploited potential”. There is an assumption that physical stature and athleticism (e.g., arm span, flexibility, swiftness, etc) are markers of unexploited potential, and will therefore continue predicting success in the NBA．But is this assumption correct?A new study sheds some new light on the issue. Unsurprisingly, measures of physical makeup and athleticism clearly influence selection into the NBA draft. But they did not distinguish productive NBA players from unproductive players after taking into account prior performance. In fact, the only variables that predicted NBA success were youth, college performance, and college quality. Of course, the researchers didn’t analyze every possible measure of skill, such as passing, defense and shooting. Also, many external factors could also have playeda role, such as coaching and team social dynamics. But none of them may be as important as the biggest elephant in the room. Let’s turn to Michael Jordan, the basketball legend.A lot has been made of Jordan’s “cut” from his school basketball team in Grade Two in high school. In reality, Jordan wasn’t cut, but just placed elsewhere: on the junior team. The school team really needed size, and at the tryouts Jordan was 5feet 10 inches. He didn’t have his big growth shoot until the following year, when he was placed on the school team. What’s more, at the tryouts, Jordan didn’t really stand out on any of the characteristics the coaches were looking out for.Well, except one: “If Jordan distinguished himself at all during the tryout, it was through his extreme effort.”What truly saddens me is that professionals judge the “natural” performer who demonstrates early evidence of ability to be more talented, and more hirable than the “striver”, who shows early evidence of high motivation and perseverance. Maybe it’s time to completely rethink this whole belief of unexploited potential. Perhaps we should think about early ability as merely potential that was realized earlier than others. Nothing more, nothing less. 8．According to the passage, what do team managers generally value in players?A．Athletic skills and training experiences.B．Motivation and team social dynamics.C．Physical makeup and athletic competence.D．Early performance and professional spirit.9．What does “the biggest elephant in the room” in paragraph 2 refer to?A．The most efficient training program.B．The most essential quality as a player.C．The greatest NBA legend Michael Jordan.D．The most obvious factor but one that is ignored.10．Why did Jordan fail to make the school team as a Grade Two student?A．He lacked talent for the sport.B．He was too short to win the coach’s favor.C．He was needed more by the school’s junior team.D．He didn’t make enough efforts to impress the coach.11．What message does the writer want to convey in the passage?A．Super efforts can make up for the lack of athleticism.B．The concept of “unexploited potential” doesn’t make sense.C．Those who show early evidence of ability are not truly talented.D．Passion and dedication are as worth considering as athletic characteristics.A new study published in the journal Science Advances finds that AI enhances creativity by boosting the novelty of story ideas as well as the “usefulness” of stories — their ability to engage the target audience and potential for publication. It finds that AI “professionalizes” stories, making them more enjoyable, more likely to have plot twists, better written and less boring.In a study, 300 participants were tasked with writing a short, eight-sentence “micro story” for a target audience of young adults. They were divided into three groups: one group was allowed no Ad help, a second group could use ChatGPT to provide a single three-sentence starting idea, and writers in the third group could choose from up to five AI-generated ideas for their inspiration.They then asked 600 people to judge how good the stories were, assessing them for novelty and “usefulness”. They found that writers with the most access to AI experienced the greatest gains to their creativity, their stories scoring 8.1% higher for novelty and 9% higher for novelty compared with stories written without AI. Writers who used up to five AI-generated ideas also scored higher for emotional characteristics, producing stories that were better written, more enjoyable, less boring and funnier.The researchers evaluated the writers’ creativity using a Divergent Association Task (DA T) and found that more creative writers — those with the highest DAT scores — benefited least from generative AI ideas.Less creative writers conversely saw a greater increase in creativity: access to five AI ideas improved novelty by 10.7% and usefulness by 11.5% compared with those who used no AI ideas. Their stories were judged to be up. to 26.6% better written, up to 22.6% more enjoyable and up to 15.2% less boring.Anil Doshi, Assistant Professor at the UCL School said, “While these results point to an increase in individual creativity, there is risk of losing collective novelty. If the publishing industry were to use more generative AI-inspired stories, our findings suggest that the stories would become less unique and more similar to each other. That is not encouraged in writing.”12．What were some participants assigned to do in the study?A．Help targeted young writers.B．Improve some less creative works.C．Create a mini story for young men.D．Use AI to judge the quality of stories. 13．Who benefited most from the AI-assisted writing in the study?A．Those using AI most.B．Those of most creativity.C．Those with the help of ChatGPT.D．Those writing the most.14．What might be Anil Doshi’s attitude toward the AI-assisted writing?A．Optimistic.B．Objective.C．Doubtful.D．Critical. 15．What can be the best title for the passage?A．AI Is Being Used to Create Novel Stories NowadaysB．AI Is Catching on But Threatening the Future of WritersC．AI Can Boost Creativity in Writing But Has Its DisadvantagesD．AI Helps Improve Writing Skills But Is Limited to Young WritersPeru is one of the most popular countries in South America, mostly thanks to its Wonder of the World, Machu Picchu.
