Following a 35-year quest for answers, a physical therapist was able to connect the dots of her symptoms by asking just a handful of questions. Finally, armed with an explanation, the diagnosis of hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) was more of a relief than a surprise. Since qualifying as a yoga instructor in 2008, Di Bon has seen the condition appear in various ways among her clients.Thought to be the most common of 13 known subtypes of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), the hEDS connective tissue disorder is most often associated with joint hypermobility, instability, chronic pain, and dislocations. However, those impacted can face multi-systemic symptoms and co-morbidities, such as gastrointestinal (肠胃的), and neurological disturbances, presenting a wide range of severity.Despite yielding positive results, as Di Bon’s work with hEDS clients increased, she began to notice gaps in her teaching, and set out to address them. “That’s why I started to look more into the mind, into the breath, and relaxation... and modify the exercises so that they were safe and suitable for somebody who is maybe feeling very unstable.”Having experienced her own difficulties navigating the healthcare system, Di Bon has been thinking about why so many with EDS carve out a vocation linked to the disorder. “I think it happens because we go through such a personal struggle to find information, to figure it out. For me personally, I just want to share that.” The Wimbledon native is constantly seeking a greater understanding of the body, currently studying for an MSc in Pain Management alongside her multi-hyphenate lifestyle as an author, movement therapist, app founder, and award-winning community champion. But, through her six principles of pain-free movement, Di Bon offers a sincere message of hope.“We can always change something that would make your life better. Even if it’s the tiniest thing. I work with people who are bed bound, who have had to give up work, who are house bound, and we are working together to make their lives more fulfilling, and to give them a better quality of life.”4. Why was her diagnosis of hEDS viewed as more of a relief than a surprise?A. Its cause put her in a panic.B. Its result came out in the wash.C. It was not beyond her expectation.D. It was not as serious as it seemed.5. Which of the following can best describe Di Bon from paragraph 3?A. Kind and inspiring.B. Generous and hard-working.C. Firm and productive.D. Reflective and considerate.6. What might make Di Bon become a yoga instructor?A. The desire to help others.B. The exploration for a cure.C. The passion for learning something new.D. The determination to get over challenges.7. What can we learn from Di Bon?A. More haste, less speed.B. It never rains but it pours.C. Focus on the big, start small.D. There is no royal road to learning.CMesopotamia was home to some of the very first cities in existence, leading many to link it to the birth of civilization. The origin of these cities is still unknown today, although many theories exist. One suggestion is that the development and building of temples created a place where people would gather, and thus served as points of contact between different groups of people.Others believe that people sought sanctuary from natural disasters. As the Mesopotamians were able to develop technology to help them control the nearby rivers, such as levees, they could ensure a good crop. They had no need to be nomadic, and were able to settle in one place comfortably. It is for this reason that all the early cities were built along the two major rivers.From the moment the Sumerians began to form these cities, it forever altered human history. People went from being ruled by nature, to attempting to control it and make it work for them. By 4500 BCE the first recorded city rose in the form of Uruk. However, the only urban structure at this point was the temple, which regulated all economic and social matters.The central purpose of these early cities was to help regulate trade, as southern Mesopotamia was reliable on outside resources. This need encouraged the spread of urbanization. However, communication between the cities was difficult, so each city developed into an individual city-state. This led to territorial disputes and, inevitably, war.In order to keep their cities protected, the Mesopotamians built fortifications, and walled cities rose. Migration to these cities increased, and more buildings were erected. Cities gradually expanded and rulers were proclaimed, who then began looking outwards for trade and conquest.8. What does the underlined word “sanctuary” mean?A. rescue.B. stability.C. shelter.D. accommodation.9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The function of early cities.B. The structure of early cities.C. The regulation of early cities.D. The appearance of early cities.10. What caused cities to become city-states?A. War and conflicts.B. Limited interaction.C. The spread of urbanization.D. Competition for resources.11. What is the best title?A. The birth of city-states.B. The first cities in the world.C. The urban expansion in the world.D. The conquest of nature in Mesopotamia.DManatees—often called sea cows—are an anomaly in the animal kingdom. Neither predator nor prey, these peaceable creatures, which can grow to 13 feet and weigh more than 2,000 pounds, are evolutionarily devoid of aggression. Crystal River—“Manatee Capital of the World”—is the epicenter of their presence and recovery.Yet despite some gains, manatees still face grave threats. Three-quarters of Florida’s 22 million people live along the coast, many in prime manatee habitat, where the strain of human-presence has degraded the state’s enchanted springs, waterways, and wetlands. In Indian River Lagoon, for example, an important manatee habitat along Florida’s densely populated east coast, decades of human waste, sediment from real estate development, and fertilizers from lawns and farms have clouded the water. That has killed seagrass, manatees’ main food source there. More than a thousand manatees have died in the lagoon during the past two years.What people don’t understand is the need to help support them in waterways. That means restoring seagrass beds and freshwater aquatic vegetation, the basis of their existence and of the overall health of Florida’s waters. Steps to reverse the damage started small. Neighbors gathered with rakes, scooping up algae by hand. Ironically, it was Save Crystal River—the group environmentalists had opposed during their fight over the manatee’s endangered status—that spearheaded the restoration of aquatic vegetation. With funding from the state government, Save Crystal River hired Sea& Shoreline, an aquatic restoration firm, to remove the waste and replant the river bottom with eelgrass, which grows long, ribbon like leaves.While the prospect of replanting the entire river was daunting, after vacuuming more than 300 million pounds of detritus and planting some 350,000 individual eelgrass pods by hand, the groups have flipped the river back to an ecosystem no longer dominated by algae.Instead of spending the few short winter months in Crystal River before heading back out into the Gulf of Mexico to graze, some manatees now linger here year-round, enjoying fat times. Aerial surveys from January 2022 revealed the highest number of manatees ever recorded in these waters—more than a thousand in Kings Bay alone.12. What is a feature of manatees?A. They are gentle animals.B. They feed on small creatures.C. They are slightly aggressive.D. They look cute for their shape.13. What is the main reason for manatees’ decline?A. Climate change.B. Habitat loss.C. Low food supply.D. Human activities.14. How did Save Crystal River help improve manatees’ endangered situation?A. By removing wastes from the river.B. By raising funds from the government.C. By replanting algae in the river bottom.D. By refining manatees’ living surroundings.15. What can we learn about manatees from the last paragraph?A. They enjoy the cold winter of Mexico.B. They remain in Manatee Capital for long.C. They head towards the warmer waters during winter.D. They have the largest population ever recorded globally.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

What is the main purpose of the Animal Care Program in Córdoba?A. To provide training for volunteers.B. To run a commercial farm for profit.C. To improve the life of the local people.D. To care for animals and children alike.22. Which task may volunteers do at the animal shelter?A. Cleaning animal living spaces.B. Conducting medical research.C. Organizing tourist trips to different cities.D. Painting and repairing the city of Córdoba.23. What will you gain from volunteering there?A. Running a farm business.B. Improving your Spanish.C.

She had never developed any habit of classic deep reading — with two eyes in front of paper, and nothing else going on. When I faced this truth, it felt like a parenting failure. Even though we’d read many storybooks when she was younger and we lived in a house stuffed with books, I hadn’t managed to instill（灌输）one of life’s fundamental pleasures in my kid.As a lifelong reader, I understand how reading enhances the fabric of our experience. Yet my daughter claimed to dislike reading. I told her reading novels was the best way to learn about how people’s insides work. She said she could learn more from the people on social media, who were all about spilling their insides. I said books offered storytelling. She said, “Smartphones.” I said books taught history. She said, “The Internet.”I could not win our debates, because few of my daughter’s arguments against reading seemed wrong to me. Yes, reading is a way to discover new worlds — so is the entire Internet. But that’s not why I wanted my daughter to pick up a book. It was about experiencing a certain magic. You know when an author describes a feeling you didn’t have, and a hundred lightbulbs go off on the top of your head? I wanted her to have a chance at feeling that.A screen-based medium can’t create this kind of relationship because, by its nature, the medium must fill in all the blanks for you. Books leave space for blanks — and for the internal invention they can inspire.So I decided to cut through all the reasoning with a cold, hard practicality: cash. I told my11 - year - old I would pay her $100 to read a novel within a month. Of course, she said yes. She finished the book in seven days. Then she even asked for the sequel（续集）— at no extra charge. Will this lead to her reading “Little Women”?Will it result in a lifelong habit of reading? I don’t know. What I do know is that I finally opened a new door for her to the printed page. That feels like the best money I ever spent.24. What does the “parenting failure” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Failure to get along well with her daughter.B. Failure to meet her daughter’s emotional needs.C. Failure to develop a reading habit in her daughter.D. Failure to provide enough storybooks in the house.25. Why does the author want her daughter to read books?A. To help her discover new worlds.B. To help her fill in all the blanks.C. To help her spend less time on the Internet.D. To let her feel a moment of deep connection.26. How does the author feel about spending $100 to encourage her daughter to read?A. She regrets spending the money.B. She is unsure if it will lead to a love of reading.C. She feels disappointed with the final outcome.D. She is confident in her daughter’s future choices.27. What could be a best title for the passage?A. Creating a Reader: A Mother’s JourneyB. Encouraging Reading: Tips for ChildrenC. The Magic of Books in a Digital AgeD. The Decline of Reading Among ChildrenCPeople often think that scientific discoveries come from the geniuses like Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein. Such a view overlooks the efforts of lesser - known pioneers. Also, popular belief holds that the sudden idea is the key to making scientific breakthroughs, as if it just appears in someone’s mind.This opinion might be partially true. It doesn’t accurately represent the true nature of scientific breakthroughs. Apart from, the great figures such as Darwin and Einstein, whose contributions are rightly recognized - we believe innovation is largely a trial-and-error process, where two steps forward may sometimes come with one step back or even more steps to the right or left.Take John Nicholson, a lesser - known scientist from the 1910s. He was a mathematical physicist who suggested the idea of ‘proto - elements’ in space. By mixing different weights of these atoms, he could recover the weights of the elements in the periodic table. Though proto - elements don’t actually exist, Nicholson’s wild ideas led him to propose a new theory about atomic structure. Niels Bohr, the Nobel prize - winning father of modern atomic theory, later built on this idea to develop his famous model of the atom.What can we learn from this story? Science is always evolving, similar to the evolution of animal species. Just random or unexpected changes of ideas may open the door for advances in science. Support for this idea can be seen in many areas. For example, in US horse racing, the ‘acey - deucy’ stirrup placement, where the rider’ s leftfoot is placed lower than the right foot, provides a speed advantage on oval tracks. It was created by a little - known rider named Jackie Westrope. Had Westrope done careful research to develop this technique? No. He had a leg injury that prevented him from fully bending his left knee. This change just happened to improve his left - hand turning performance. As a result, many riders quickly adopted the acey - deucy style, which is still used in racing today.Many other examples show science progress often comes from mistakes, accidents, or pure luck. It’s time to abandon the naive beliefs of genius and explore the true causes of creativity.28. What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A. To support specific ideas.B. To describe a common belief.C. To compare certain beliefs.D. To challenge a popular view.29. What does the writer imply about Darwin and Einstein in paragraph 2?A. They set an example for others to follow.B. Their way of working has been misunderstood.C. They are exceptions to the usual rule.D. Their achievements deserve greater recognition.30. What do we know about the idea of Nicholson?A. It made him famous as an important scientist.B. People only fully understood it later in history.C. Other scientists were initially doubtful about it.D. It paved the way for someone else’ s breakthrough.31. What is most interesting about the ‘acey - deucy’ stirrup adjustment?A. Why it was made.B. How quickly people used it.C. The research work behind it.D. The cleverness of its first user.DThis has been the decade of AI, with one advancement after another. By mid-century, we may have artificial general intelligence （AGI）— machines that can do all the things humans can. And that’s just the beginning. Machines aren’t affected by the same physical limitations that affect human intelligence. Once machines outperform humans, progress towards these limits could speed up even more.What does this mean for us? Can we make sure we live safely with these machines? On the positive side, AI is already useful in many areas, and super AI could be super useful. However, as AI grows more powerful, it becomes crucial to define its goals clearly. There are many folk stories about people who ask for the wrong thing, with disastrous consequences. For instance, King Midas wished everything he touched to turn to gold, but he didn’t expect his breakfast to turn to gold too.So we need to create powerful AI machines that are ‘human - friendly’ — with values that match our own.One thing that makes this task difficult is that humans aren’t always kind or reliable. We often do many terrible things to many other creatures with whom we share the planet. If super intelligent machines don’t act better than we do, we’ll be in deep trouble.For our own safety, we want the machines to be morally as well as cognitively（认知的）superior to humans. We want them to aim for the moral high ground. However, this utopian vision faces two big problems. The first is ‘getting started’ problem — pointing the machines in the right direction, which won’t be easy because we are always conflicted about our own values. The second problem is the ‘destination’ problem — what it would mean to reach this destination. If we put ourselves in the hands of these super machines, we might lose our own freedom — which is a key part of being human.So where exactly would that leave human beings? It’s more important to think about the destination now and be careful about what we wish for.32. What point does the writer make about AI in paragraph 1?A. AGI will definitely replace humans.B. AI’s future potential seems limitless.C. There’s much to learn about super AI.D. AI shares many features with humans.33. Why does the author mention the story of King Midas?A. To compare different kinds of goals.B. To suggest that AI should reflect human values.C. To show poorly defined goals may lead to problems.D. To warn about the danger of becoming greedy with AI.34. What challenge does the writer mention in paragraph 3?A. Getting humans to act more morally.B. Building a better world for all creatures.C. Making AI more human-friendly than humans.D. Choosing which values AI should share with us.35. What does the underlined phrase “this utopian vision” refer to?A. Humans can ensure the safety of machines.B. Machines will help solve these two big problems.C. Humans and machines have the same moral ground.D. Machines get smarter and more moral than humans.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

about my new favorite thing.It’s an app that my husband told me a few years ago that helps me bypass all the obstacles(障碍)in my way:potholes,heavy traffic, and even speed cameras.To be honest,when my husband first told me about it,I didn’t pay much attention.I was only going to places I already knew how to get to.Plus,I learned to drive from my father—who never turned to a map.I think I mistakenly absorbed the message that real drivers didn’t need a map;you somehow just magically knew where to go.It was only later that I realized that just getting a driver’s license didn’t mean you knew how to get to places—that was lesson one.Lesson two came when my kids started playing on two different travel teams.The drivers in our household suddenly had the need to head in different directions on the same day.Suddenly my app became very meaningful to me.How did I ever manage to get to strange playing fields hidden somewhere without it?But the crazy thing I have also noticed is how often I just don’t listen to it.Why might that be?Do I just prefer the old routes,even if they are actually worse?I see an analogy(类比)to the present moment.There is evidence that some old ideas and some long familiar ideas will send us into a boring unchanging lifestyle.But for some reason we like them better than an unfamiliar new route that might take us into areas we’ve never heard of,let alone visited.It can be hard to admit we don’t know everything.As a person who still drives anobserves them.Children change their behavior in response to having an audience.Help children give to others in full view,delivering meals to families,and in private,dropping off treats or surprises for those who need support without signing their names.Also,children should be reminded that thank-you notes are lovely but unnecessary to receive.When we give gifts or lend help to others,try to help children remember why—to provide something for another.It really doesn’t have to be recognized.When a thank-you card doesn’t come,it doesn’t make a gift any less valuable or meaningful for those who were lucky enough to receive. 8．What did the researchers discover?A．The givers’behavior greatly inspired the receivers to help in return.B．The children gave out an equal number of stickers in both settings.C．The presence of an audience affected children’s decisions to give.D．Donating helped children to become more generous in the future.9．Which is pro-social behavior according to the researchers?A．Observing the givers.B．Donating more stickers.C．Gaining a reputation.D．Receiving more allocations. 10．What does the underlined word“apprehend”in Paragraph3mean?A．Share.B．Predict.C．Confirm.D．Understand. 11．What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A．To suggest recognizing others’kindness.B．To acknowledge the giver’s contribution.C．To confirm the benefits of being grateful.D．To advise inspiring generosity inchildren.In a new finding that goes against current conservation patterns,re-introducing wolves and other predators(捕食者)to our landscapes does not amazingly reduce deer populations, restore worsening ecosystems or significantly threaten livestock(家禽),according to a new study.“The hopes and fears that we have on both sides of the debate—neither are realized,”said conservation biologist Bernd Blossey,professor of natural resources and the environment at Cornell University.On the one hand,there is little evidence for claims that re-introducing large predators such as wolves,bears and mountain lions is a major threat to livestock and wild animals such as white-tailed deer and mule deer.When the wolf was taken off theendangered species list,hunters and livestock producers,and some state governments,called for action to safeguard the wildlife they wanted to hunt and the livestock that was their livelihood.But it is nearly impossible to independently evaluate those claims,Blossey said. Other factors also kill livestock,from lightning strikes to extreme weather and diseases.On the other hand,the claim that wolves and other predators can control deer populations and restore worsening ecosystems lacks evidence as well.“Meaningfully reducing deer populations in Wisconsin alone would require tens of thousands of wolves, which is ecologically and socially impossible,”said Blossey.And wolves alone can’t repair the ecological damage humans have done,he said.A popular video“How wolves change rivers,”which has been viewed more than43million times,suggests that the re-introduction of wolves in Yellowstone National Park benefited the entire ecosystem.“I was as fooled like everybody else by the lovely stories that came out of Yellowstone saying,you bring wolves back,and you restore the rivers,and everything’s satisfactory,”said Blossey.We should see large predators like wolves as a valuable part ecological communities in their own right,Blossey said,and not just for their function.“As long as people learn to live with and tolerate the new(old)neighbors,a careful but not fully conflict-free existence appears possible,”said Blossey.12．Which of the following does Blossey probably agree with?A．The loss of livestock may not necessarily be due to wolves.B．People should not take wolves off the endangered species listC．People should take action to protect livestock and wild animals.D．The threat to predators comes from climate change and diseases.13．Which word best describes Blossey’s attitude to the video“How wolves change rivers”?A．Tolerant.B．Unclear.C．Doubtful.D．Favorable.14．What does Bernd Blossey say about large predators in the last paragraph?A．They upset the balance of the ecosystem.B．They should rightfully stay in their habitats.C．They are key to restoring the environment.D．They change people’s view about rewilding.15．What is the text mainly about?A．The value of humans’living together with animalsB．The importance of restoring worsening ecosystems.C．A debate over the threat to livestock and wild animals.D．A clarification of the effects of bringing back the wolves.二、七选五三、完形填空33．A．willingly B．secretly C．physically D．casually 34．A．stand up for B．break away from C．come up with D．fit in with 35．A．occurs B．extends C．appeals D．belongs四、用单词的适当形式完成短文五、告知信/通知46．假定你是红星中学学生会主席李华，学生会准备开展一次“人工智能与未来教育”的专家讲座活动。

第四部分第一节One possible version:Dear David,Thanks for your letter. The field trip to WuYi Mount National Park leaves a lasting impression on my heart. I experienced a range of emotions -- from the thrill of observing different ecosystems to the awe of studying environmentally - friendly practices in the park. The trip really fuels my curiosity and inspires me to explore the world around us.Memorable as it is, the trip still has some room for improvement. We could gain a deeper understanding of the biodiversity if we can be accompanied by a knowledgeable guide. Also, we students are looking forward to more interactive activities, like nature hikes and educational workshops.Do you have similar experiences? Looking forward to your reply.Yours sincerely,Li Hua 第二节（略）听力部分原文第一节(Text 1)M: Excuse me? I'm afraid I can't eat this steak. It's raw.W: Really? I'll take it back to the kitchen.M: No, I'd like to order something else, please.(Text 2)M: What are you looking for?W: My cell phone. I can't find it anywhere. I had it when I left the football game because I called David on my way to the cafe.W: Did you lose it on the way there?M: Oh no I put it on the table in the cafe and I forgot to pick it up when I left for the office.(Text 3)M: This is the list of the things for the youth-club trip to the coast.W: Looks fine, but we'll need some sports equipment, too.M: Good idea. And we'll need a bus to take everyone there.W:I can phone the bus company this afternoon.(Text 4)W: Hi, Tom. It's Kerry. How are you?M: I'm fine. Hope you're still on for Saturday?W: Ah, well, that's why I was ringing. My parents are coming over on Saturday for dinner. We made the arrangement ages ago, but I forgot. I'm really sorry.We'll have to eat out another night.M: Oh, that's a shame. I'd booked a table at Mario's.(Text 5)M: Now I have collected all your personal information. After I feed it back to the shop manager, we will solve your problem as soon as possible.W: Then when will I get another CD? Could you please tell me the deadline?M: Em I promise the day after tomorrow.W: That's great. I will go to the shop on that day to return the CD and fetch a new one.第二节(Text 6)M: Thank you for taking me camping with you last weekend, Aunt Lizzie.W: It was great, especially when we went swimming. It was too windy to swim in the sea, but the lake was great anyway. Perhaps next time we can try the river.M: Sleeping in a tent was new for me. I was worried about it on the first night, but I soon found out how exciting it was! My brother was very unhappy that he couldn’t come wi th us.W: The campsite was quite big, but it’s a pity there was nowhere to buy food and things. And the showers there were a bit dirty, but OK.(Text 7)W: What did you think of that film adaptation of The Silver Birds?M: Well, the song in it is beauti ful. But if I were the author, I’d be pretty annoyed. Didn’t he take part in writing the screenplay, though? Anyway, I don’t think the message of the book was interpreted correctly.W: Yeah. They make the film because the book’s been a bestseller. But they change the ending so it’s nothing like the original.M: Indeed. I guess they changed it to appeal to the widest audience possible.(Text 8)M: I’ve got this paper due for one of my classes, and my car won’t start. Could you drive me to school?W: Oh, I w ould, but my sister’s got my car. Can you send the paper by email?M: Well, I could, but I don’t have access on my computer here at home.W: You don’t?

First call your professor, and get her email address.M:IthinkIhavethathere.It’************************.W: Cool. Next save your paper on USB stick. Then, bring the USB stick and the email address over here to my place. When you get here, we’ll send the paper from my computer.M: That will be great.(Text 9)M: Good morning. Shake it Off Fitness. How can I help you?W: Hello. A friend of mine saw your advert on Daily News website. She told me that you have the best budget membership in the city. Is that right?M: Oh, yes. If you find a better rate, then we’ll match it. And we don’t have any sign-up fees or cancellation fees.W: That’s useful to know. Umm, what times do you have?M: We open at 5 a.m. and close at midnight.W: Not 24 hours then.M: No. Almost, though!W: OK. Another question: do you have trainers?M: Sure we do. We have many experienced personal trainers. He or she will design an exercise plan and provide the nutrition advice right for you. It costs extra though.W: Hmmm, yeah. Um, OK.M: Listen, here’s a free day pass. Why don’t you drop by and see for yourself? That way you can talk to other members, see the facilities and our trainers.W: OK, I’ll do that. Thanks very much!(Text 10)W: American researchers say dust clouds from dry African deserts may be a threat to human health in the United States. They say the dust may contain many small organisms that could be dangerous to some people. Each year, huge storms form in the Sahara desert of Northern Africa. Winds carry the dust across the Atlantic Ocean. The movement of dust has been increasing in recent years because of longer periods without rain in Africa. From February to April, the dust settles in South America. From June to October, the winds change and transport the dust to North America, Central America and the Caribbean. More than half of the dust that reaches the United States settles in the state of Florida. For many years, it has caused the skies there to turn red. There is probably a link between the dust storms and the higher rates of breathing problems in people in this area.。
