My childhood was a painted picture of sunny sky and rolling green fields stretching to thehorizon. It tasted of sharp berries and smelt of sour grapes. My family lived in a cabin (小大屋)in the countryside but I lived in my mother's arms. They were so delicate but strong, her red hairfalling around me like a curtain separating me from the world.
Childhood was simple. The borders of my village were the furthest my troubles went andmonsters only lived in the pages of books. Every day was a waking dream of running races andmuddy knees. My village was archaic, dying cabins housing dying farmers with dying traditionsThere weren't many children but me and the other bovs: bovs of butchers and sellers formed ourown group.
They called us wild. I suppose we were. Trees and mountains formed our playgrounds andfights broke out as easily as sudden laughter. Liberated from the restrictions of society, wewould bound into the woods, deeper and deeper until we found a lake which, with a wild yellwe would jump into all at once.
My most vivid memories from bovhood center around that lake. Water shone brightly andthe sounds of our screams broke into the outcry from birds. The shock of cold water againstsweating skin would wake every nerve in my body and my bare feet would hit the sinkingmuddy bottom.As we submerged (淹没), time would suspend, movements slowing as bubblesrose around us.
I was drowning.I was living. I was living. I was drowning.
For timelessness or a second (both felt the same), we would suspend, curl up, and then beforced back out into breathing air.
We should have known that it wouldnt last forever. Yet, even under the best circumstancesthere's something so tragic about growing up: to have your perspective on the people and lifearound you change: to always struggle to reach a mirror only to find yourself tall enough to seeyour reflection one day. And find, a different person staring back out at you.
24. What does the underlined word “archaic”mean in paragraph 2?
A. Borderless.B.Valueless.
C.Old-fashioned. D.Poverty-stricken.
25.Why did the author consider himself and other children wild?
A. They played in the woods crazily.
B.They tricked others purposefully
C.They frequently broke social rules.
D.They firmly refused school education.
26. How does the author introduce his memories of the lake?
A. By sharing feelings.
B. By expressing ideas.
C.By making comparisons.
D. By describing characters.
27. What message does the author seem to convey in the last paragraph?
A. Loneliness and challenges make a man grow up.
B. The regret of growth is that you have never tried.
C.Growth is often accompanied by sad goodbyes to the past
D.Growth begins when we begin to accept our own weakness
C
In shallow coastal waters of the Indian ocean, Dugong, a kind of sea cow, is in trouble.Environmental problems pose such a major threat to its survival that the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) upgraded the species’extinction risk status (地位) to vulnerable(脆弱的).
Much worse, Dugongs are at risk of losing the protection of the Torres Strait Islanders, whohave looked after them historically, hunting them for food sustainably and monitoring theirr numbers. These native people keep their biodiversity, and have deep knowledge about theirenvironment. But these people are also threatened, in part because rising sea levels are making it difficult for them to live there.
This situation isn’t unique to Dugongs. A global analysis of 385 culturally important plantand animal species found 68 percent were both biologically vulnerable and at risk of losing their cultural protection.
The findings clearly illustrate that biology shouldn't be the primary factor in shapingconservation policy, says anthropologist Victoria Reyes-Garcia. When a culture declines, thespecies that are important to that culture are also threatened. “Lots of conservationists think weneed to separate people from nature," says Reyes-Garcia. “But that strategy misses the caringrelationship many cultural groups have with nature."
One way to help shift conservation efforts is to give species a “bio-cultural status.” whichwould provide a fuller picture of their vulnerability. In the study, the team used a new way todetermine a species'risk of disappearing: the more a cultural group's language use declines, themore that culture is threatened. The more a culture is threatened, the more culturally vulnerableits important species are.Researchers then combined a species’ cultural and biologicalyulnerability to arrive at its bio-cultural status In the Dugong's case. its bio-cultura status isendangered, meaning it is more at risk than its IUCN categorization suggests.
This new approach to conservation involves people that have historically cared for them. Itcan highlight when communities need support to continue their care. Scientists hope it will bring more efforts that recognize local communities’rights and encourage their participation-takingadvantage ofhumans’connection with nature instead of creating more separation.
28. What is the relationship between the native people and Dugongs?
A.The native people help conserve Dugongs.
B.The native people train Dugongs to survive.
C.Dugongs ruin the native people's environment.
D.Dugongs force the native people to leave home.
29.Which statement will Reyes-Garcia probably agree with?
A. The protection policy is used incorrectly.
B.Culture is connected to species’existence
C. Many groups take good care of each other
D.Conservationists prefer nature over people
30. How is the study method different from previous ones?
A. It involves more preservation efforts.
B. It relies on the IUCN's classification
C. It highlights the effect of human languages.
D. It assesses the biological influence of a species.
31. What is the author's attitude towards the latest approach?
A.Conservative.B. Favourable.C.Critical.D.Ambiguous.
D
Adapting to technological advances is a defining part of the 21st-century life. Just twomonths after being launched in November 2022, OpenAI's ChatGPT has already reached anaudience of over 100 million people. While ChatGPT threatens to change writing andwriting-related work, the Mesopotamians, who lived 4,000 years ago in a geographicalarea centered in modern-day lraq, went through this kind of far-reaching change before us.
Ancient Mesopotamia was home to many of civilization's early developments. Its peoplewere world leaders in adapting to technological and cultural changes. They invented thewheel and agriculture, and pioneered advances in mathematics and urbanization. Thesebreakthroughs are reflected in cuneiform (楔形文字)literature, one of the oldest known forms of writing.
In its literature.Mesopotamians don't present culturaltechnological advances asandconsistently beneficial. They often represent new technologies being controlled in the service ofhuman conflict and mostly serving the interestsof those with high social positions.In someways, the representation of new technologies in its literature echoes ( 映 现 ) contemporary concerns about Al: fears of increasing social inequalities and its potential use in information war.
In recent years,Al- the newest form of writing -has been used to decipher (破译) theoldest: cuneiform literature. In broader fields, the boundaries of how AI may be used haven’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 earliestcivilizations. But the technology and resulting knowledge are not always evenly distributedKnowing how we adapted to changing technology in the past helps us more fully understand thehuman condition and may even help us prepare for the future.
32. 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
33. What can be inferred about technological advances from paragraph 3?
A.They prevent human conflict.
C.They take away people's concerns.
B.They bring about hidden dangers
D.They lower people's social status
34.What is the current situation of Al according to paragraph 4?
A. Its use in literature is popular.
C.Its range of application is undefined.
B.It is not allowed to finish papers
D. It is not accepted in broader fields
35.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.How People Can Use the Latest Technology
B.How ChatGPT Will Threaten Writing and Work
C.What AI Will Do by Learning Cuneiform Literature
D.What History Can Teach Us About New Tech's Impact
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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you noticed how evenings cool off more in rural areas than they do in cities? Urbanareas also tend to get hotter during the day than any nearby areas with lots of greenery.36
It's mainly caused by the difference in materials that cover the ground in urban areas andthe countryside. In the country, evaporation (蒸发) of water from soil and the leaves of plantshelps to cool the air. 37 Having fewer plants. cities have less evaporation and are unable to cool down the temperature.
Dark colours are another problem. Dark objects absorb all wavelengths of light, making the temperature increase more noticeably. In contrast, white objects reflect all wavelengths of light energy. 38 Sadly, most parts of cities are covered by asphalt (沥青)steel, roofs and bricks which are often dark in colour.
39 As people drive cars, heat buildings, and run air conditioners, cities aregenerating waste heat and pouring it into the atmosphere directly. The waste heat adds to the solar energy trapped by the tall buildings.
But cities don't have to be so hot. Some cities have lightened their streets. This is done bycovering black asphalt streets, parking lots, and dark roofs with a more reflective gray coating. 40
Having more green spaces also helps. Plants serve as a natural air conditioner. They catchheat, release vapour (蒸汽) into the air, and take away heat, contributing to cooler, fresher cities.
A. Cities also produce more heat than suburban areas.
B.The higher the temperature, the shorter the wavelength.
C.This phenomenon is known as the urban heat-island effect.
D. So it will not be transformed into heat which makes the air hot.
E. Changes in building materials have a minimal effect on city temperatures.
F. Much of the soil in cities, by contrast, has been covered with roads and buildings.
G. These changes can decrease air temperatures dramatically, especially in summer.

Ballet was a way of life in Kelly's family. Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a topcollege. Though Kelly's mom always wanted her to follow in her sister's footsteps and Kellyherself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for anew challenge.
One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated byboxers (拳击手) training inside the boxing ring. She was deeply impressed by how hard they hitand how fast they moved. In fact, she'd long been attracted to boxing.
She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School ClulSign-up Sheet was the phrase: BOXING CLUB TRYOUT (选拔).That was what Kelly reallywanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired oftrying to keep up with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve her own path.
The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At firstSerena didn't understand and thought she was just joking, But when she saw Kelly was serious.she replied,“You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right? Besides, boxing is only forboys, and you're so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly.”
“But this is where I want to put my strength,Kelly insisted, “and what exactly does't only for boys'mean, anyway? Boxing is a sport for everyone!”
Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand andsupport her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. Butthat was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show helfootwork and punching (击打) abilities with other candidates. Boxing didn't come natural to Kelly, but she had made up her mind to stick with her choice.
