It is amazing to see how an African animal can __41__ a lion’s attack. In the wilderness, every one has a stunt (绝技). Even plants have their own ways of fighting off enemies.Over millions of years of __42__, plants have developed a unique defence system. Chemicals are widely used for __43__. By making their leaves, flowers, stems, roots and fruits __44__ or poisonous to animals, plants can fight back.One such plant is the Golden Wattle tree. British __45__ David Cameron has found when an animal eats the tree’s leaves, the amount of poisonous tannin(单宁) increases in the other leaves. “It’s like the damaged leaves __46__ the others telling them to fight together against the enemy,”he said.The tree also sends defence messages to neighboring plants by giving out a special smell. Golden Wattle tree in the __47__ 45 meters will get the message and produce more tannin within 10 minutes. Now, if an animal eats too many of the trees’ leaves, it will die.Every species of plant or tree specializes in the production of a particular set of __48__. A plant-eating animal that can safely eat the leaves of one tree may be poisoned by its neighbor.In this way, plants have developed not only __49__ defence systems, but also shared them with others. This makes it impossible for a single animal to destroy even a small area of forest.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Hunting wild birds is illegal in Shanghai – and especially in Chongming County.

A lot of __52__ work is left to volunteers. According to an official of the Shanghai Wild Animal Protection Association, who __53__ to be named, some small restaurants are __54__serving bird dishes, but the __55__ is impossible to stop at this time. “We have to __56__ cooperation with the city’s __57__ and industry department, the food and drug __58__, the police and many other sectors (部门) of the government,”he said. “__59__, there is no law enforcement power to __60__ their business licenses.”The association lacks enough people to __61__ into the Chongming woods, as the volunteers do, to __62__ nets, which are used to capture birds. The Chongming Woods Protection Team has only six members and five of them have to take care of the __63__ – only one is dedicated to bird protection, according to Jiang Long, our team leader and a member of the non-governmental Shanghai Green Oasis Ecological Conservation and Communication Center. “What they can do is limited，so volunteers are needed to fill the __64__,” Jiang said.50.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)She tells us she understands teens. She’s with them at home and she’s with them at school.She plays the piano and the flute (笛子). “Growing up I was always involved with music. My parents had divorced and I was under a lot of stress, and being around music, I felt peace and happiness. Later I came to realize that, as a music teacher, I could give that gift to kids.”And she’s an author. She wrote The Unexpected Adventure at East Haddam two years ago when Evens had a brother and a sister in her Chorus class who struggled with her relationship. Each one – mostly the sister – complained about the other to her. “And I hope the book will show them the importance of their education. It’s so hard for teens to understand the value of what they study in school.”She’s keenly aware of the challenges today’s youth face. “As a society, we’ve lowered our standards in many cases. As a kid I watched Happy Day and The Bill Cosby Show, and my parents never had to worry about what would come out of the characters’mouths. Today there is no show on after 8 p.m. that’s suitable for younger people. It’s hard for kids today because they’re not allowed the innocence we had.”She’s busy at work on her next book. Evens says writing these books has filled a place inside her that she never thought about, but that needed to be filled. “I enjoy the process so much. I feel challenged. And I am able to purge(净化) some thoughts that I would like to share, especially with kids.”“The most important thing for kids today to remember is that every person is valuable and important, and they have to respect their bodies and themselves, and behave in a way that shows that.”65. Evens was fond of music as a child because _____.A. she could find comfort with music at homeB. her gift for music was passed down from her parentsC. her parents gave her a lot of pressure to learn musicD. music could bring peace between fighting parents66. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that _____.A. today the family seldom watches shows togetherB. the standard to choose characters in shows is raisedC. the show after 8 p.m. have a bad influence on teensD. today’s youth are as innocent as those in the past67. What statement may Evens agree to?A. School subjects are too hard for teens to understand.B. It is a challenge to teach children music and writing.C. Teens respect others by behaving themselves well.D. Education is of great value to teens today.68. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A. A multi-talented teacher understands teens.B. A teacher writes books on teens.C. Teens love multi-talented teachers at school.D. Kids today are no more innocent than ever.(B)Advertisement 1Now available at Franklin Park one block from Indiana University. New unfurnished flat bedroom at $135, two bedrooms at $165, three bedrooms at $195 per month. Utilities (实用设施) include gas, electricity and water. Children and small pets are welcome. One month’s deposit required. Office opens through Saturday nine to five. Welcome for an evening or Sunday appointment.Advertisement 2SHEFFIELDLINCOLN COLLEGE OF ENGLISHClasses for foreign students at all levels3 months, 6 months, 9 months and one year courseOpen all yearSmall class (maximum 12 students)Library, language laboratory and listening centerAccommodation with selected families25 minutes from LondonCourse fees for English for one year are ￡1, 380with reduction for shorter periods of study.69. From Advertisement 1, we can suppose _____.A. cats and dogs are not permitted in the flatsB. the flats have furniture in themC. the flats are far from Indiana UniversityD. gas and water bills are included in the rent70. Advertisement 1 suggests that persons who are interested in the flats must _____.A. see the flats on Monday or SaturdayB. call for an appointment if they want to see the flats from nine to five Monday throughSaturdayC. see the flats before five o’clock during weekdaysD. call for an appointment if they want to see the flats on Sunday or in the evening71. While you stay in Lincoln College of English, _______ will take care of you.A. the school where you studyB. the family you have chosenC. your classmatesD. your own parents(C)I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly(大胆地)on their own, most of them are attempting to seize one another’s hands for reassurance.They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up crowded round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧)—into a larger cocoon.It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out(创造出) a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come —with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.72. This passage is meant to ______.A. tell readers how to be popular among people around themB. suggest people how to understand and respect each otherC. encourage teenagers to learn to make their choices and decisionsD. suggest parents how to guide and teach their teenage children73. According to the author, many children are said to be rebelling, but actually most of them____.A. are very much afraid of being kept aloneB. are not courageous and confident enoughC. are not very popular among their classmatesD. are good at striking out boldly on their own74. The expression “to award high marks for the popularity of their children” can be understoodas “______”.A. to generously reward their children when they do better than othersB. to expect their children to become top students at the teenage marketC. to give prizes to their children when they do well in their testsD. to pay much attention to whether their children are popular75. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. advertisements are trying to help teenagers to find themselvesB. most teenagers are actually not rebelling at all in a real senseC. advertisements are always misleading in carving out a teenage marketD. most teenagers manage to become popular by dressing as they pleaseSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for eachSurfing is one of the fastest developing sports in the world today. It used to be practiced bySurfing is more of a way of life for some people than simply a sport, and many spend their time travelling around the planet in search of the perfect wave. Typically, the average surfer is a relaxed type of person: they say it’s something about the art of catching waves and being out in the elements that makes you feel very relaxed. Surfers greet each other by saying “Howzit?” (a bit like “How’s it going?”) and sometimes call each other “bru”or “brah”from the HawaiianAnywhere that has a coastline with big waves is home to surfers. Half of Australia’s coastline is surfable so there are lots of Australian surfers. Hawaii is where the sport was invented and the current champion is Hawaiian Sunny Garcia. A lot of surfers also come from California and New Zealand. There are even surfers in the UK who hang out on the southwest coast where theGet a board. Most surfers start on short boards. Long boards and guns are only for experienced surfers catching huge waves. You also have to be a very strong swimmer: being ableBeach breaks are waves which fall onto sand. They can be big, but are best if you are a beginner. Waves vary in size during different seasons and even at different times of the day, so watch out! Surfing can be dangerous and you need advice from someone experienced. More experienced surfers catch waves at point and reef breaks. They are away from the coast, and the swell comes deep from the ocean. Point breaks are waves bent because of the shape of the landSurfing is a dangerous sport if you aren’t a strong swimmer or if you try to do too much. The main thing most surfers have to worry about is their own board or other surfers’ boards. Great white sharks, stingrays and deadly jellyfish are also not friendly to surfers, but actually running into one of these is quite rare.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the no more than 10 words.Reading to oneself is a modern activity that was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and medieval（中世纪的）worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading”undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during nineteenth century did silent reading become common-place.One should be careful, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is a distraction to others. Examination of factors related to the historical development of silent reading reveals that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy, and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of potential listeners declined, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing（繁荣）of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers.Towards the end of the century there was still considerable argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and periodicals（期刊）for a specialized readership on the other.By the end of the century students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and to use skills in reading them which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term “reading” implied.81. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?82. The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century indicates that______________.83. People are still arguing about the value of __________________.84. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?第II卷（共45分）Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 我们花在作业上的时间很多。

But there’s a catch. Those wings must twist(弯曲) in a very precise way that makes them hard to produce.Ethan became fascinated by this kind of airplane design when he saw a video of NASA’s Prandtl-D aircraft gliding gracefully through the air without a tail. “I just thought that was really cool,” says Ethan. He wondered if he could find a simpler way to achieve the same tailless flight.“Essentially what I did was just trial and error,” Ethan says. Using a computer model of an airplane wing, he adjusted the angle of twist along the wing until it could achieve tailless flight. Usually, such a wing requires a continuous distribution of wing twist. But he could achieve a similar effect with wings that had just a few sections of twist. “It’s super easy to make,” Ethan says.In his garage, Ethan built model airplanes using rubber materials and packing tape totes this design. “Seeing the plane in the air was pretty cool,” Ethan says. “It just flew really, really well.”Lighter, more efficient planes could open the door to other air travel innovations. “It’s been a long-term goal of mine to build a solar plane that can fly through the day powered by solar panels on its wings,” Ethan says. “It is absolutely possible for a really efficient plane.”To other teens who have big engineering ideas to explore, Ethan always says, “Don’t ever give up.” Even when some machinery feels impossible to understand, it help store member that the world’s greatest inventors are only human, too. “Also, just make sure you love whatever you do,” Ethan adds. “That’ll make pursuing everything a lot easier.”24．What is one advantage of the tailless airplane?A．It makes aircraft design easier.B．It is environmentally friendly.C．It reduces production costs.D．It promotes flight stability.25．What drew Ethan’s attention to the tailless airplane design?A．The breakthrough in aircraft materials.B．The flight of an aircraft in a video.C．The prize for original design.D．The desire for innovation.26．In Ethan’s opinion, what help inventors realize their dreams?that the technology just isn’t there. My students used free accessible text generators online and put in a lot of effort. But, if I had believed these were genuine student essays, the very best would have earned somewhere around a C or C-minus. Many of the essays had obvious red flags for AI generation: outdated facts, quotes from prior university presidents presented as current presidents, fictional professors and named student organizations that don’t exist. At the same time, the students reported that using AI required far more time than simply writing their essays the old-fashioned way would have.There has been a fair amount written about the supposed impressiveness of AI-generated text. There are even several high-profile AI-written articles, essays or even scientific papers or screenplays that showcase this impressiveness. In many of these cases, the “authors” have access to higher-quality language models than most students are currently able to use. But, more importantly, the published examples are generally the polished form of professional writers and editors. In contrast, many of my students’ AI-generated essays showed the common problems of student writing—uncertainty about the appropriate writing style, issues with organization and transitions, and inconsistent paragraphing. Obviously, producing a quality essay with AI requires having high writing skill and revising skill to produce appropriate outputs.My experimental so tells me that a good assignment sheet is the best defense against AI essays. If your assignment is “Describe the reasons for the U.S. Civil War”, you are more likely to get AI or downloaded essay submissions. My assignment was a challenge because it asked students to address local issues of concern. There are just not enough relevant examples in the data the AI text generators are drawing from.It has been just over five years since computer scientists declared, “We should stop training radiologists(放射科医生) now. Deep learning is going to do better than radiologists.” Well, we’re still training radiologists, and there’s no indication that deep learning is going to replace human doctors anytime soon. In much the same way, I strongly suspect full-on robot writing will always and forever be “just around the corner”.31．What can we learn about the students in the experiment?A．Their writing efficiency was affected.B．Their essays were better structured.C．They preferred AI-written essays.D．They overcame AI’s weaknesses.32．What does the author imply in Paragraph 3?A．Online text generators are far from reliable.B．Genuine student essays deserve higher marks.C．Students need to have better mastery of technology.D．Revising applications decide the quality of AI essays.33．In the author’s opinion, what may discourage the use of AI text generators?A．Standard criteria B．Strict regulations..C．Clear instructions.D．Unique writing tasks. 34．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To assess AI’s influence on students’ writing.B．To discuss the threat of AI to the teaching of writing.C．To appeal for the appropriate application of AI text generators.D．To analyse the differences between genuine and Al-written essays.四、七选五五、阅读表达阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
