Music filled the silence of the practice room. Our teacher made the dance look so easy when she was
demonstrating it herself. Her movements flowed naturally with the rhythm of the music. Her eyes filled
with confidence while she looked at herself in the mirror. Her dancing appealed to me.
Finishing the demonstration, she told us, “It’s your time to shine!” Over the course of four
months, we practiced week after week as we prepared for our final performance: a real performance with an
actual audience. That thought of standing onstage in front of a cheering crowd gave me instant stage
fright.
In the beginning, we’d even grab drinks together after rehearsal (排练) and evaluate our own
mistakes from the sessions. However, after a couple of weeks, our movements weren’t the same as usual.
Some of my classmates no longer cared about the performance; others no longer felt motivated to improve their
dancing abilities. So why did we continue practising if we didn’t even plan to finish it?
Matching the teacher’s dancing was an impossible goal. But I still used the course as a chance to start
improving, even if it meant that I started at the very bottom. I didn’t pressure myself to perfect the
choreography (编舞). I let that pressure move through my body instead, until I no longer saw myself in the
mirror memorizing steps but actually dancing to the music.
On the day of the performance, recalling the way my teacher danced attracted me that first day, I entered
the stage. I couldn’t see the audience through the bright spotlights. It was all dark around us, which made
me less nervous. I only focused on my body, my mind, and the music. My mind was empty; I lost myself in
the dance. I succeeded. And I knew at that moment, I engaged others, too.
24. What do we know about the author’s teacher?
A. She proved dance learning was easy. B. She enjoyed looking into the mirror.
C. She showed a positive self-identity. D. She was demanding with students.
25. What occurred to some classmates after weeks of rehearsal?
A. They stopped seeking feedback actively.
B. They lost enthusiasm for practising.
C. They focused on other things instead.
D. They avoided social interactions post-practice.
26. How did the author practise dancing?
A. By observing every small step. B. By arranging the movements.
C. By prolonging practice hours. D. By co-existing with pressure.27. What is the suitable title for the text?
A. Dancing my way to Success B. A Rewarding Dance Rehearsal
C. Forgetting Fright in Dance D. The Power of Dance Practice
C
Researchers in Australia and the US are starting a multi-million dollar project to bring the
Tasmanian tiger, nicknamed thylacine（袋狼） , back from extinction. The last known one died in 1939.
The team say it can be recreated using stem cells（干细胞） and gene-editing（基因编辑）
technology, and the first thylacine could be reintroduced to the wild in 10 years’ time. They plan to take
stem cells from a living species with similar DNA, and then use gene-editing technology to “bring
back” the extinct species - or an extremely close one of it.
It would be a great achievement for the researchers attempting it, and require a number of
scientific breakthroughs.
The population of Tasmanian tigers dropped when humans arrived in Australia tens of thousands of years
ago, and again when dingoes—a species of wild dog—appeared. Eventually, the species only lived free on
the island of Tasmania, and was finally hunted to extinction.
If scientists were to succeed, it would mark the first “de-extinction” event in history, but many
outside experts doubt it, and believe that the project is more about media attention for the scientists and less
about doing serious science.
The idea of bringing back the extinct has been around for more than 20 years. In 1999, the
Australian Museum started to pursue a project to clone the Tasmanian tiger, and various attempts have
been made ever since to get or rebuild DNA from samples. The US firm made headlines last year with its
plans to use similar gene editing technology to bring the woolly mammoth back to life—a technological
achievement yet to be made.
28. Which of the following might be the major reason for thylacine’s extinction?
A. Habitat loss. B. Climate change.
C. Human activities. D. Wild dog protection.
29. What do many outside experts think of bringing back extinct thylacine?
A. It will make history.
B. It is particularly difficult.
C. It deserves greater attention.
D. It is more of a piece of eye-catching news.
30. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A.
Future for bringing back the extinct.
B. Benefits of bringing back the extinct.
C. Previous efforts to bring back the extinct.
D. Technology needed to bring back the extinct.
31. In which column of a magazine can we read this passage?
A. Science and Technology. B. History and Traditions.
C. Nature and Environment. D. Culture and Society.
D
Does using an eco-friendly paper straw (吸管) give you a good feeling because you’re doing
something for the environment? “Straws made from plant-based materials, such as paper andbamboo, are often advertised as being more sustainable and eco-friendly than those made from plastic,”
says researcher Dr. Thimo Groffen, an environmental scientist at the University of Antwerp. “However, the
presence of PFAS（聚合硫酸铁铝）in these straws means that could be discredited.”
PFAS chemicals, infamous for their longevity and potential harm, can adversely affect humans, wildlife
and the environment. They biodegrade (生物降解) very slowly over time and can persist over thousands
of years in the environment, a property that has led to them being known as “forever chemicals”. They are
linked to various health issues, including thyroid disease, liver damage, kidney cancer and so on. Furthermore,
these chemicals are used in everyday items, such as outdoor clothing and non-stick pans, to make them water
and heat-resistant.
For a more in-depth analysis, the research team purchased 39 different brands of drinking straws made
from five materials — paper, bamboo, glass, stainless steel and plastic, and then conducted two rounds of
testing for PFAS. They found that most brands (69%) contained PFAS, with 18 different PFAS
detected in total. In paper straws, PFAS was detected in 90% of the brands tested. PFAS was also detected
in 80% of brands of bamboo straws, 75% of plastic straw brands and 40% of glass straw brands. They were not
detected in any of the five types of steel straws tested.
“The presence of PFAS in paper and bamboo straws shows they are not necessarily
biodegradable,” says Dr. Groffen. “We did not detect any PFAS in stainless steel straws, so I would advise
consumers to use this type of straw — or just avoid using straws.”
The PFAS concentrations (浓度) were low and, considering that most people only use straws
occasionally, pose a limited risk to human health. However, PFAS can remain in the body for many years
and concentrations can build up over time. “Small amounts of PFAS, while not harmful in themselves,
can add to the chemical load already present in the body,” Dr. Groffen concludes.
32. What does the underlined word “discredited” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Plain B. Relevant. C. Doubtful. D. Forceful.
33. Why are PFAS chemicals known as “forever chemicals”?
A. They are resistant to water and heat.
B. They take a long time to break down.
C. They exist widely in daily necessities.
D. They may cause various common diseases.
34. What can we know from the test for PFAS?
A. PFAS was found in all five types of straws.
B. Paper straws were most likely to contain PFAS.
C. Stainless steel straws are harmless to human health.
D. Glass straws were the most environmentally friendly straws.
35. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A. To stress the potential risks of PFAS.
B. To show approaches to using straws safely.
C. To present the advantages of stainless steel straws.
D. To appeal to consumers to avoid using straws in daily life.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。
First aid refers to the initial medical attention given immediately after an injury or an accident. 36
They think it’s a job exclusive to medical professionals. In fact, it’s a life skill we all should try to learn.
According to The Guardian, over 150,000 people get critically injured or die yearly because of
people’s lack of first aid knowledge. That’s a tall number considering we live in the modern age. Thus,
more people must know what to do in case of accidents or medical emergencies. 37 We can reduce
these life-threatening situations by learning the prompt care needed in such situations.
Whether we like it or not, accidents and emergencies happen at any time. 38 In the USA alone,
over six million people are involved in traffic accidents each year. In fact, it’s the leading cause of death
for people between the ages of 1 and 54. That said, no one can predict when or where disaster may strike.
These accidents can happen at home, at work, or while in transit. That’s why basic first aid skills like
CPR, disinfecting (消毒) wounds, and learning to stop bleeding can go a long way.
39 It’s a vital step that prevents injuries from worsening until full medical help arrives. For
instance, when a person experiences cardiac arrest, they only have 3 to 4 minutes before the brain lacks
oxygen. What you do in these minutes will impact the patient’s condition. Calling for an ambulance
is, of course, your priority. 40
A. Developed countries witness a greater death rate.
B. But it might encounter traffic jams during rush hours.
C. However, if you can employ CPR, it can relieve the damage.
D. It’s a part of our reality that we must always prepare ourselves for.
E. The bad news is that not many people know the importance of first aid.
F. Heart attacks and choking endanger thousands of lives on a yearly basis.
G. The first few minutes are the most critical in the case of a medical emergency.
