阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Four Best National Parks in the World
Kakadu National Park, Australia
Although the Blue Mountains is Australia’s most visited national park, Kakadu is the largest and wins hands-
down for natural beauty and historical importance. It covers over 20,000 square kilometres, with waterfalls pouring
into natural pools, vast wetlands and wildlife-filled places. Kakadu’s highlight is one of the highest concentrations
of rock art sites anywhere in the world.
Best time to visit: June to October
Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia
Croatia’s first national park in 1949 and now one of the country’s most popular attractions. Plitvice Lakes is a
waterworld of pools with changing colors, pouring waterfalls and interconnected watercourses. The lakes sit on two
levels, and the surrounding woodland is visited by brown bears, wolves and lynx, with various trees alive with rare
birds.
Best time to visit: Summer greens, fall golds and winter snows make Plitvice an ever-changing year-round
destination
Vatnajokull National Park, Iceland
Here you’ll find all the natural wonders that this island has become famous for— ice caves, waterfalls, and
glaciers that can be hiked on. And most of these attractions can be accessed relatively easily off Iceland’s Ring
Road, four hours or so from Reykjavik. The Park was created in 2008 by joining together Jokulsargljufur and
Skaftafell National Park to create a supersized area of over 12,000 square kilometres, making it the largest national
park in Europe.
Best time to visit: Summer for hiking; winter for ice cave tours
Tongariro National Park, New Zealand
Tongariro National Park has two World Heritage roles for its cultural and natural significance. The Park’s 19-
kilometre Tongariro Alpine Crossing is also one of the best day hikes on the planet. It offers the chance to
summit(登顶)an active volcano, hiking over burnt volcanic rock up to the Red Crater for impressive views.
Best time to visit: Summer gives the best chance of good weather; winter hikes are possible but increasinglyunpredictable
21. When are tourists advised to go to Kakadu National Park?
A. In April. B. In September. C. In November. D. In December.
22. Where should tourists go to visit the largest national park in Europe?
A. Australia. B. Croatia. C. Iceland. D. New Zealand.
23. What can tourists do in Tongariro National Park?
A. Reach the top of a volcano. B. Hike along impressive waterfalls.
C. Interact with rare birds in the wild. D. Meet artists at various rock art sites.
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. A

A 23-year-old man can do weightlifting in many ways as hard as any other gym-goer, but he only has one leg.
Nathan Seawood doesn’t let his disability keep him from the weight room. Instead, he’s learning to bear a different
load.
“This isn’t just a physical battle in the gym,” Seawood said. “It’s a mental battle for myself.” Refusing to be
weighed down by his disability, Seawood draws strength from his mind, as he fights to make it through each step.
“That takes a lot out of me. I push my body so hard that I’m tired,” said Seawood, who once thought he might have
to give up the weights forever.
Seawood ended up in a hospital bed with one leg after falling off a boat in Long Lake near Traverse City in
June, 2019. His left leg got caught in the propeller and had to be cut.
“I didn’t want people to see me,” Seawood said. “I couldn’t accept what had happened to me because it’s a
lifestyle change. And that was hard. I was down bad.”
Seawood said a therapist helped lift his spirits. “I wanted to be able to walk and that was difficult because I’m
using muscles that never really get noticed as much,” Seawood said. Now he’s using those muscles to train hard at
Grand Rapids City Gym, inspiring those around him to keep pushing.
“He faces difficulties most of us don’t have to,” Jeff Phillips, who owns the gym, said. “I mean, he’s in here
and he only has one leg, but he’s doing a lot of the same lifts everybody with two legs are doing. It’s surely
encouraging to see him doing that.”
Despite life’s best attempt to knock him down, Seawood is still standing, and while he may exercise
differently from others, he’s thankful to still be moving. “I might have a disability, but I’m not disabled,” Seawood
said.
24. What plays the key role in Seawood’s weightlifting?A. His right leg. B. The others’ encouragement.
C. His strong will. D. His family.
25. What led to Nathan Seawood’s disability?
A. An accident. B. An early birth. C. A serious disease. D. A medical mistake.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Nathan Seawood?
A. Confident and honest. B. Smart and hardworking.
C. Calm and modest. D. Determined and positive.
27. Why is Jeff Phillips mentioned in paragraph 6?
A. To tell Seawood’s sad story. B. To draw attention to weightlifting.
C. To speak highly of Seawood. D. To show sympathy for Seawood.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. C
C
The field of animal care medicine has evolved to adopt alternative and complementary methods alongside
conventional treatments. Researchers explore the application, benefits and challenges of alternative methods, which
are gaining attention for their potential in promoting animal health and well-being instead of targeting specific
symptoms. In the study, researchers examine various alternative treatments, including acupuncture ( 针灸),
chiropractic (脊椎) care, homeopathy (顺势疗法), and herbal medicine, through evaluating their historical use,
current applications, and the available researches on their effectiveness and safety.
Acupuncture, from traditional Chinese medicine, uses thin needles inserted into body points to boost health. It
helps manage pain and other issues in animals, improving mobility and well-being. But how it works is still being
studied. Chiropractic care focuses on chiropractic adjustment to address muscles and skeleton problems, potentially
improving nervous system function and mobility. However, more research is needed to confirm its benefits across
different species. Homeopathy treats various conditions based on the "like cures like" idea, but its scientific basis is
controversial, and few studies prove its effectiveness in animals. Herbal medicine, which employs plant-based
solutions, is also growing in use. Herbs are valued for their anti-swelling and pain-relieving properties, but
standardized procedures and clinical trials are necessary to establish their effectiveness.
These treatments often use a whole-body approach, addressing not just symptoms but underlying imbalances.
While they offer potential benefits, challenges such as the lack of strict scientific studies and clinical trials still
exist. Some people doubt their scientific proof and wonder if they work mainly through mind-over-body effects.
Combining these treatments with regular animal healthcare is now more popular, as vets try to seek
comprehensive healthcare solutions. Future research should focus on establishing clear procedures andunderstanding the ways these treatments work. Open communication with pet owners about the potential benefits
and risks is also crucial.
In conclusion, alternative treatments in animal medicine provide diverse options for enhancing animal health.
While challenges exist, ongoing research and a balanced approach combining conventional and alternative methods
can lead to improved outcomes and overall wellness for animals.
28. What is a common feature of alternative methods?
A. Effective and safe. B. Anti-conventional.
C. Overall health balanced. D. Specific symptoms-based.
29. What is a challenge faced by alternative treatments?
A. High cost of treatments. B. Limited use in animals.
C. Complete lack of benefits. D. Lack of strict scientific studies.
30. What is the author’s attitude toward alternative methods?
A. Fully supportive. B. Strongly opposed.
C. Cautiously optimistic. D. Completely uncertain.
31. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The comparison of different treatments. B. The exploration of alternative treatments.
C. The promotion of alternative treatments. D. The criticism of conventional treatments
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. B
D
The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical — but it’s a real
ability that some creatures have. A family of African fish known as Momyrids are weakly electric, and have special
organs that can locate a nearby target, even when it’s hiding in the mud. Scientists have now developed an artificial
sensor system modelled on the ability of these fish.
“We developed a new strategy for 3D motion positioning by electronic skin, bio-inspired by ‘electric fish,’”
says Dr. Xinge Yu, an associate professor in the Department of Biomedical Eagineering at the City University of
Hong Kong. The team described their e-skin sensor in a paper published on November 14 in Nature.
The artificial sensor is multi-layered. One layer acts as a transmitter (发射器), which will generate an electric
field once activated, and another layer acts as a receiver to detect both the direction and the distance to an object. A
separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter. When an object comes within range, the
electric field around the sensor is disrupted, which in turn can be detected by the receiver. This data is then
processed by a microcontroller unit, which computes the position of the target object and sends that information toa smartphone or other devices.
A special biogel (生物凝胶) is used in the sensor, which has the ability to transmit and receive electric signals
from a pattern of microchannels on the surface. The end result is a sensor that is thin, soft and flexible, making it
easy to adapt to irregular surfaces, such as the human body. In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a
large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning, the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space
using just a few sensors. This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection, transmission, and
processing.
The researchers hope that this sensor could one day open up a new range of wearable technologies, including
sensors for human-machine interaction and thin, flexible e-skin.
32. The first paragraph aims to show _________.
A. the special ability of African fish B. the inspiration for a new invention
C. the big challenge of locating objects D. the reason for developing a sensor
33. What does the underlined word “disrupted” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. disturb. B. arrange. C. enhance. D. stabilize.
34. What is an advantage of the new sensor system?
A. Its sensitivity to different stimulations.
B. Its adaptation to environmental changes.
C. Its efficiency in achieving 3D positioning.
D. Its speed in data collection and processing.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Machine Detective “Wears” Flexible E-skin
B. Bio-inspired Sensor “Feels” Without Touching
C. E-Skin Sensor: The Future of Machine Learning
D. Electric Fields: The Frontier of Object Detection
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B

Be Smart AI Users
Nowadays, AI technology has been increasingly used in our daily life. For example, many students use AI
assistants to help them finish assignments.
In my opinion, AI can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, AI assistants like ChatGPT can readilyprovide us with abundant resources, boosting our efficiency in study and work. On the other hand, if we get over-
dependent on AI, it may negatively affect our problem-solving skills, creativity and interpersonal relationships.
Therefore, I advocate using AI responsibly and reasonably. As long as we make efforts, we can all be smart AI
users.

Simon was the star of the school sports team. He loved the thrill of outrunning the wind and crossing the finish
line first. His name was always on the tip of everyone’s tongue when it came to school sports events.
His little brother, Charlie, loved running too and had always been a fan of Simon. He admired his brother from
the bottom of his heart, his eyes wide with excitement as Simon sped past everyone on the track. He wanted to be
like Simon and feel the wind in his hair as he ran. Charlie’s dream of being a runner grew like a tiny seed, but was
overshadowed by his brother’s bright light. He realized he could never run as fast as Simon did: His feet felt heavy
on the track, and his heart was even heavier with fear.
As the annual school sports day approached, Charlie saw the notice on the school bulletin board. His heart did
a little dance. A running race! He wanted to be a part of it, to feel the excitement that Simon felt. With a trembling
hand, Charlie wrote his name on the list and signed up for the running race, which would take place in two weeks.
That night, he couldn’t sleep, his mind racing with worries. He tossed and turned, picturing himself tripping
and falling. What if he lost? What if everyone laughed at him? He couldn’t contain himself and sobbed quietly. He
felt as if he was a tiny bird trying to fly alongside an eagle.
When Simon found Charlie crying in his room, he knew something was up. “Hey buddy, what’s all this?” he
asked softly, his face filled with concern. Charlie looked up at his big brother with a long sigh and said, “I am going
to lose, Simon. I’m not like you. I will never run as fast as you do.”

【答案】One possible version:
Simon gave Charlie a pat on the back and smiled. He wiped away Charlie’s tears and said, “You know what,
Charlie. What really matters is not about being the fastest. It is about giving it your all and surpassing your previous
self.” He promised to train with Charlie together. From that day on, Simon woke up early to run with Charlie.
Simon would teach Charlie all his secrets to running fast and staying strong. And with each passing day, Charlie’s
confidence grew, and so did his speed. Charlie was no longer just a fan on the sidelines; he was a runner with his
own dreams to chase.
