Once he spots Toro, he knows the rest of the herd is nearby. That’s because Toro isn’t an ordinary member of the herd. He's a giraffe. In hot weather, cattle rest in the shade under his belly. And because of his height, Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd.Toro's unusual situation came about after his mother was killed by lions. Toro survived the attack, but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk. About two days later, some herders spotted and rescued him. With the permission of the Department of Wildlife, the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm. Since giraffes and cattle are both plant-eating animals that live in groups, their behaviors are much the same. Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass.Toro doesn't always behave like the other members of his new herd. Like manykinds of animals, cattle compete for dominance (支配). Standing more than 13 feet tall, Toro is more than three times taller than the biggest bull, But Toro never tries to be ''the boss. ''He is very used to their company, '' Andrew said. When the herd enters the kraal (家畜栏), the cows and bulls push each other. ''But thanks to his height, Toro does not need to join the mess, '' said Andrew.When asked if Toro would ever be returned to the wild, Munetsi, an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no. ''In the wild, he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators (猎食者),'' he added. ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle.''24．What was Toro like when the herders found him?A．He was left alone. B．He was seriously ill.C．He was lost in the bush. D．He was fighting with lions. 25．What do we know about Toro in the cattle herd?A．He has fought to be the leader.B．He gets along well with the herd.C．He is pushed around by the bulls.D．He stays away from the herd most of the time26．What will happen to Toro according to Munetsi?A．He will be sent back to the wild.B．He will be put into another herd of giraffes.C．He will continue to live together with Andrew.D．He will be trained to fight with the big animals.27．What may be the best title for the text?A．Giraffes under threat in the wildB．A surprising new family for a giraffeC．A new way of herding appearing in AfricaD．Moments showing friendship between animalsCWhen Faith Wanjiku graduated from the Technical University of Kenya last year,she immediately enrolled (注册) at the Confucius Institute in Kenyatta University. She wanted to learn Chinese, as she believed that it would help her land a good job.She has just completed the hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) 3 exam. HSK is a test of Chinese language level for non-native speakers, organized by the Confucius Institute Headquarters.However, this level isn’t enough for Wanjiku, who plans to pass HSK 6. She wanted to increase her level of Chinese and improve her spoken Chinese. And Wanjiku isn’t alone. The number of people taking the HSK reached 6.8 million in 2018 and went up 4.6 percent from a year earlier, the Ministry of Education said on May 31.Chinese is becoming an increasingly popular choice of language to study around the world. Currently, middle school students in Russia can take Chinese as an elective language test in the country’s national college entrance exam, Sputnik News reported.In May, Zambia became the fourth country in Africa-after Kenya, Uganda and South Africa—to introduce Chinese language to its schools.And many English-speaking countries have shown an interest in allowing their students to learn Chinese. The US government announced the launch of “1 Million Strong” in 2015, a plan that aims to bring the total number of learners of Chinese to l million by 2020.Behind the growing popularity of Chinese language learning is the international community’s positive attitude toward Chinas future development, as well as the people’s longing to learn about Chinese civilization and culture.Indeed, it’s as the former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela put it, “if you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”28．What did Wanjiku do after graduating from university?A．She went abroad. B．She learned Chinese.C．She found a job. D．She travelled to China.29．HSK is a test for ______.A．non-native speakers B．native speakersC．middle school students D．college students30．What does the underlined sentence mean?A．Wangjiku has lots of friends.B．Lots of people want to pass HSK6 exam.C．Wangjiku has passed HSK3 exam.D．Many people want to live in China.31．What may be the best title for the text?A．Chinese Language Study Takes OffB．Chinese Play an Important Role in EconomyC．People Share the Experience of Learning ChineseD．Different Opinions about the Function of ChineseDWhen John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood，he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence（能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society, ” said George Vaillant, the psychologi st（心理学家）who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”Vaillant’s study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the m en’s mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out asadults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.Working—at any age—is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings（基础）of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work.”32．What do we know about John？A．He received little love from his family.B．He had few childhood playmates.C．He enjoyed his career and marriage.D．He was envied by others in his childhood.33．Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as _______.A．a description of personal values and social valuesB．an analysis of how work was related to competenceC．an example for parents' expectations of their childrenD．an explanation why some boys grew into happy men34．Vaillant's team got their findings by _______.A．recording the boys' effort in schoolB．comparing different sets of scoresC．evaluating the men's mental healthD．measuring the men's problem solving ability35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Competent adults know more about love than work.B．Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.C．Love brings more joy to people than work does.D．Independence is the key to one's success.EAfter a long day at work, coming home is a breath of fresh air. 36__ However, is it as healthy as it can be? Below are a number of things we can do to create a healthy home environment that will help to ease the workday stress and promote our physical and mental health.Cleaning the house regularly is the first thing we should do.

It happened one night when he saw discarded books while driving his garbagetrash. He took home about 50 books every morning after his night shift. Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library for children from low-income families.Bogota, Colombia’s capital, has 19 public libraries. However, they are far away from where rural and poorer communities live. The option of buying new books is out of reach for families struggling to make ends meet. Gutiérrez’s community library is a true representation of how one man’s trash can be another’s treasure. “I don’t think I’m doing something so great. The library is simply a bridge between people who throw books and those who have no access to books,” he said about his remarkable efforts.Today, his library, called “the Strength of Words”, contains over 20,000 books and occupies most of his home. Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection. The library is open every weekend, when neighborhood children pour in. “The whole value of the library lies in helping kids start reading. This is important for kids in Bogota where many young people kill time in the streets and fall victim to vices such as taking drugs,” said Gutiérrez.Gutiérrez grew up poor, and his family couldn’t afford to educate him beyond primaryschool. Nevertheless, he never lets a lack of formal education stop him from reading. “Books are the greatest invention of human beings. There’s nothing more beautiful than having a book handy,” Guiérrez said. His journey to giving back to his local community is an amazing example of how every one of us can improve the lives of those around us by identifying needs, investing time and finding a simple solution.4．What does the underlined word “ignited” mean in the first paragraph?A．Indicated.B．Satisfied.C．Limited.D．Stimulated. 5．Which of the following can best describe Gutérrez?A．Caring and humble.B．Smart and independent.C．Traditional and self-disciplined.D．Ambitious and easy-going.6．What do paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly tell us?A．Bogota’s main social problems.B．The library’s rich variety of books.C．The bad habits of Bogota’s young people.D．The library’s significance for the neighborhood.7．What message does Gutiérrez’s story deliver?A．Education is the key to success.B．All things are difficult before they are easy.C．Small acts of kindness make a big difference.D．Books are the food for the hungry of great mind.Adapting to technological advances is a defining part of the 21st-century life. Just two months after being launched in November 2022, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has already reached an audience of over 100 million people. While ChatGPT threatens to change writing and writing-related work, the Mesopotamians, who lived 4,000 years ago in a geographical area centered in modern-day Iraq, went through this kind of far-reaching change before us.Ancient Mesopotamia was home to many of civilization’s early developments. Its people were world leaders in adapting to technological and cultural changes. They invented the wheel and agriculture, and pioneered advances in mathematics and urbanization. These breakthroughs are reflected in cuneiform(楔形文字)literature，one of the oldest known forms of writing.In its literature, Mesopotamians don’t present cultural and technological advances asconsistently beneficial.They often represent new technologies being controlled in the service of human conflict and mostly serving the interests of those with high social positions. In some ways，the representation of new technologies in its literature echoes(映现)contemporary concerns about AI: fears of increasing social inequalities and its potential use in information war.In recent years，AI—the newest form of writing—has been used to decipher(破译)the oldest: cuneiform literature.In broader fields,the boundaries of how AI may be used haven’t been clearly explained.In January,for example, a top international AI conference banned the use of AI tools for writing scientific papers.Humans have been struggling to invent, use and adapt to technology since our earliest civilizations. But the technology and resulting knowledge are not always evenly distributed. Knowing how we adapted to changing technology in the past helps us more fully understand the human condition and may even help us prepare for the future.8．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning Mesopotamians?A．Their adaptation to threats.B．Their influences on writing.C．Their contribution to literature.D．Their achievements in civilization.9．What can be inferred about technological advances from paragraph 3?A．They prevent human conflict.B．They bring about hidden dangers.C．They take away people’s concerns.D．They lower people’s social status.10．What is the current situation of AI according to paragraph 4?A．Its use in literature is popular.B．It is not allowed to finish papers.C．Its range of application is undefined.D．It is not accepted in broader fields.11．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．How People Can Use the Latest TechnologyB．How ChatGPT Will Threaten Writing and WorkC．What AI Will Do by Learning Cuneiform LiteratureD．What History Can Teach Us About New Tech’s Impact二、七选五Scientists help to explain how the world around us works, and carry out experiments to create new things. To become a scientist, you need a college degree and various professional skills. 12Understand scientist description and responsibilities. Scientists are responsible for examining and exploring different aspects of the physical world. All their exploration processes are done by following a set of rules known as the scientific method. 13 Of course, they also have different specific work responsibilities. If you want to be a scientist in a certain field, you need to continue to have a deep understanding of professional work responsibilities.14 The influence of every profession is double-sided. As a scientist, it may bring you some achievements and benefits, but it also has some professional disadvantages. So before you want to be a scientist, you should have a detailed understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of scientists.Go through college. 15 Overall studying is important to become a professional scientist. You can learn all kinds of related knowledge systematically at college and lay a solid foundation for your future career.Get internship (实习) opportunities. Try to find part-time jobs during the university period. In this way, you can obtain real work experience while studying, which is very valuable for you and will definitely be helpful for your real career in the future. 16 When you find a relevant scientist job, apply for it.A scientist’s career path is often the result of a series of chance meetings, unexpected events and changes in personal circumstances. You should not be afraid to follow your own unique route.A．Try to avoid the influence of others.B．Next, you will have detailed information.C．So make use of your rich experience if any.D．Think about whether it is worthwhile to be a scientist.E．You can find such chances through special part-time websites.F．Scientists in different fields may specialize in different subjects.G．Systematic learning in university is the basis of becoming a scientist.三、完形填空I can still remember the afternoon when we climbed the mountain as if it were yesterday.Uncle Jimmy.

One day I went shopping at a gift shop in Shanghai. I was greatly interesting and I lost me in beautiful goods. After I paid for that I had bought, I left my handbag on the counter.

It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week. Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living anddownshiftingis one of them. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for mee tings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by. Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm then,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some time getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are much happier.Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used tolooking after the animals. One thing I do like, however, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much, or you might not do it at all.”【小题1】The passage tells us that .A．people seldom work long hours to make moneyB．people hardly buy more things than necessaryC．people are sure everything they own is in the right placeD．people realize there is more to life than just making money【小题2】When Daniel was a reporter, he ______.A．lived in central LondonB．was well paidC．missed his childrenD．disliked his job【小题3】Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ______.A．was easy to organizeB．was extremely expensiveC．has improved family lifeD．has been a total success【小题4】The underlined word “downshifting” in the 2nd paragraph refersto ______.A．repairing your car by yourselfB．spending money carefullyC．moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better lifeD．living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week8.I often visit my parents, who live in the countryside whenever ____.A．I am convenientB．it will be convenient to meC．I will be convenientD．it is convenient to me9.根据题中所给的中文提示或首字母写出符合句意的单词的正确形式。

When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives，he was planting trees. Hehad some interesting ideas about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees.Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants made them grow weaker. He said he had to make things difficult for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water.So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he'd beat them with a rolled up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the trees' attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Sometimes I walked by his house and looked at the trees I'd watched him plant 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.I planted several trees myself a few years ago. Two years of caring for these trees meant they grew up weakly. Every time a cold wind blew, my trees shook. Adversity seemed to be good for Doctor Gibb's trees，they could never relax. Every night before I go to bed，I check on my two sons. I often pray(祈祷)that their lives will be easy. But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to experience difficulties. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots，so when the rains fall and the winds blow，we won't be separated.1．What did Doctor Gibbs do to the trees he planted?A．He let them grow quickly. B．He beat them to get their attention.C．He helped them search for water. D．He read a newspaper near them.2．What does the word "Adversity" in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Difficult living conditions. B．Little water.C．Enough care or attention. D．Bad weather.3．What does the writer learn from Doctor Gibbs?A．Elders are treasures.B．No pain，no gain.C．Two heads are better than one.D．Only those who bear(容忍)the most become the highest.B14、The greatest sales woman in the world today doesn’t mind if you call her a girl. That’s because Markita Andrews made more than $80,000 by selling cookies when she was 13 years old.Andrews and her mother shared a dream of traveling around the world. Once while reading a magazine ad, Andrews found that the person who sold the most cookies could win a free trip for two around the world. She decided to give it a try.To make her dream c ome true, Andrews went door to door every day after school and repeated, “Hi, I have a dream.I’m earning a trip around the world for my mom and me by selling cookies. ” Then she asked,” Would you like to buy one or two dozen boxes of cookies?”Andrews kept asking for a whole year, no matter how heavily it was raining or snowing outside. Her hard work____. She sold 42,000 boxes of cookies that year and she won her trip around the world.Andrews is no smarter than thousands of other people. The key to her success is that she has found the secret of selling: Ask, Ask, Ask! Many people fail before they even begin because they fail to ask for what they want.It takes courage to ask for what you want. And , as Andrews has discovered, the more you ask, the easier ( and more fun) it gets.根据短文内容选择最佳答案，将其标号填入题前括号内。
