“Why?” It’s a simple question that people ask Angela Madeline frequently. After
all, she began a journey that very few people would ever attempt: walk around the
world alone.
The thought of Madeline’s journey did not start from a place of loss or personal
crisis. She said, “I was searching for a deeper interaction with nature and people.”
Walking would minimize her carbon footprint, plus the slow pace meant that she
could fully engage herself in nature, and gain insights into other cultures in a unique
way.
She left her hometown of Bend, Oregon, on 2 May 2016 and headed into an
adventure. Along the way, Madeline would suffer from heatstroke ( 中暑) in the
Australian desert and hear gunshots while camping in Turkey. “Still,” she said, “I
didn’t stop because I was more afraid of not following my heart than I was of losing
everything I owned and loved.”
Apart from that, her slow pace allowed her to be drawn deeply into other
cultures. She wandered the tiny seaside villages along Italy Tyrthenian Sea, enjoying
the lively atmosphere. In Vietnam, she was offered food by an elderly woman and
invited to rest in her wooden house at the peak for the night. She chose an experience
试卷第5页，共3页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司of uncertainty and curiosity, in search of something she could never be certain to find:
a sense of fulfillment and a deeper connection.
On16 December 2022, Madeline’s pilgrimage (朝圣之旅) ended right where it
started. For now, she’s working on a book, planning future journeys and creating more
effective ways for women to find and express courage in their lives.
Whether a walk leads halfway around the world or just down the road, Madeline
has shown the true worth of embracing (拥抱) the unknown and giving more than we
receive along the way.
24．Why did Madeline decide to start her journey?
A．To get rid of personal crisis. B．To get closer to the world.
C．To reduce carbon footprint. D．To slow down the pace of life.
25．What can we know about Madeline during the journey?
A．She was about to give up. B．She was helped by Italian locals.
C．She experienced various cultures. D．She enjoyed Australian coastal
scenery.
26．Which of the following words can best describe Madeline?
A．Cautious and gentle. B．Tough and adventurous.
C．Outgoing and generous. D．Open-minded and humorous.
27．What’s this text mainly about?
A．A new way to slow down life. B．A closer connection with the wild.
C．An unforgettable memory of a trip.D．A woman walking around the world.

Many scientists are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流) for the
moment. Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment. However, ocean
expert Curtis Esmeyer does it in a special way — by studying movements of random
floating garbage. A scientist with many years' experience, he started this type of
research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing
up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many
shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to
试卷第6页，共3页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司sell or wear.
Esmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total —
fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if
they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn't.
Esmeyer realized this could be a great experiment. If he learned when and where the
shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about
the patterns of ocean currents.
The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing (海滩
搜寻) because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious
beachcombers in the area. Esmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help
in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable
information on 1,600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and
improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the
findings of their study.
As the result of his work, Esmeyer has become known as the scientist to call
with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean. He has even
started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from
West Africa to New Zealand. They have recorded all lost objects ranging from
potatoes to golf gloves.
28．The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
______.
A．repair rooms B．trading fairs C．business talks D．group meetings
29．Esmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out ______.
A．what caused the shipping accident
B．when and where the shoes went missing
C．whether it was all right to use their shoes
D．how much they lost in the shipping accident
30．Esmeyer is most famous for ______.
A．traveling widely the coastal cities of the world
B．making records for any lost objects on the sea
试卷第7页，共3页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C．running a global currents research association
D．phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea
31．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A．To call people's attention to ocean pollution.
B．To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.
C．To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.
D．To give advice on how to search for lost objects on the beach.
D
People may typically think of memory as the recollection of the past. Memory
enables people to learn from past experiences and apply that knowledge in present
circumstances. It is a vital part of our identity. So is culture, the way of life specific to
a group of people.
Cultural memory is the constructed understanding of the past that is passed
from one generation to the next through text, oral traditions, monuments and other
symbols. Cultural memory is often amassed in objects, such as museums or historical
monuments. To understand culture, humans access a mass of cultural symbols, such as
books. Artifacts (历史文物) of the past provide insights into where we came from.
Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly boundless amount of data on what it
means to be part of a culture. Cultural memory is the longest-lasting form of memory.
Like all forms of memory, cultural memory has important functions. For
example, it makes the experiences a nation owns clear. It provides us with an
understanding of the past and the values of the group to which we belong. Besides, it
creates a form of shared identity and a means for communicating this identity to new
members. The most powerful forms of cultural memory may involve memories of
past disastrous experiences undergone (经历) by groups of victims. For example, in
Russia, their role in World War II— in which tens of millions of Russians were killed
— is still an important part of modern Russian identity. Because all groups have
cultural memory, it can bring about a spirit of resistance or survival among threatened
groups.
试卷第8页，共3页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司The main function of cultural memory is not to recall the past, whether it is
good or bad. Rather, it is to use knowledge of past experiences to avoid making the
same mistakes again and again. Aleida Assmann, a professor who has worked on
memory theory since the 1960s, calls this “remembering forward”. Cultural memory
enables people to adapt to their culture; it enables cultures to adapt to new
circumstances by keeping traces (痕迹) of what worked in the past.
32．What is the function of the first paragraph?
A．Reporting a discovery of cultural memory.
B．Leading to the concept of cultural memory.
C．Introducing the importance of memory in identity.
D．Making a connection between memory and culture.
33．Which can replace the underlined word “amassed” in paragraph 2?
A．Stored. B．Overlooked. C．Evaluated. D．Created.
34．Russia is mentioned in paragraph 3 to indicate ______.
A．the features of cultural memory
B．the formation of cultural memory
C．the role of big events in Russian identity
D．the impact of cultural memory on identity
35．What is cultural memory mainly expected to do?
A．Pass previous wisdom down.
B．Keep traces of history.
C．Get people to know about the past.
D．Remind people of their identity.

It was the Annual Inter-school Primary Sports Meet at the National Stadium. I sat
down next to my principal, Mr Tan, in the preparation room as he gave me some
words of encouragement. I was taking part in the 100-metre race event.
“Just one more gold medal from the last event, Tyson! You can do it! Nila
Primary School will win the Champion School Cup!” Mr Tan encouraged me before
he left the room. Just then, I saw Robert, the best runner from Sunshine Primary
School, walking towards me. Suddenly, he grabbed my T-shirt and pulled me towards
him. I could smell his terrible breath. “You are nothing! You will never beat me!”
Robert said, trying to make me angry.
I pushed him away and shouted at him. “The same to you! I’m not frightened by
your threats!” I replied with a fearless glare. Hearing this, Robert walked away,
speechless. Soon, we heard an announcement to gather at the starting point. As I
looked up and heard the deafening cheer from the sea of spectators (观众), I was

“On your mark. Get set!” the judge announced. There was dead silence in the air.
Suddenly, I heard the firing of the starter’s gun and I burst forth. Robert and I were
neck and neck until I spotted a frog leaping towards us. Robert screamed and ran into
my lane suddenly. Unfortunately, we tripped over each other and landed hard on the
tracks. There was a loud gasp from the spectators stand. Other competitors rushed by
and none stopped to help us. Sportsmanship arose from my heart suddenly. I got up
and helped Robert to his feet. He could not run so I put my right arm over his
shoulders and we walked slowly past the finish line. The crowd cheered. The moment
we crossed that, Robert thanked me and sat down heavily to the ground. I later knew
that he had suffered an ankle injury.

Recently our class had a heated discussion on whether space is worth exploring.
Students hold different ideas about it.
30% of us think space exploration is not worthwhile, holding the belief that space
exploration is too far away from us and our daily life and is a waste of money.
However, 70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot
from it, such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. What’s more,
with further space research, we may solve the population problem by moving to other
planets one day.
As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space. Not only can it
promote the development of society but also enrich our life.

bringing honor to my school. However, I thought I had done the right thing. I saw Mr
Tan was also there talking with my teammates. I was worried that they would be
angry with me because I had let them down, but no one blamed me. Instead, they all
tried to cheer me up. That was reassuring. When I approached Mr Tan, he patted me
on the shoulder and said, “I am touched by your act of sportsmanship, Tyson! I
support the decision you have made on the track!” Hearing that, I thanked Mr Tan
sincerely.
The awards ceremony took place two days later. As I stood near the stage in the
school hall, I knew I had nothing to do with the awards. To my surprise, I heard my
name being read out by my principal, Mr Tan. “Today, we honour Tyson Goh as the
recipient of Nila Sportsmanship Award!”Mr Tan announced. Was the Sportsmanship
Award a newly added one? Excitedly, I accepted the award. At that moment, I spotted
Robert, smiling at me. I realized that though I lost the race, I got a friend at last. And
