Ling Runzhi, 41, who has used a wheelchair ever since she was six, listens to an online class about modern
Chinese landscape paintings (山水画) carefully.

With a few deft strokes (灵巧的几笔) of her paintbrush, Ling skillfully brings to life a black-and-white work
of art. Despite the loss of sensation in her lower body because of an illness, this talented artist refuses to let her
illness stop her creativity.
Ling’s art has not only helped her fulfill her own dreams but also offered a window to a wider world for
others like her. Through her art, she helps them experience the beauty and wonders of the world.
In 2003, attracted by the beauty of embroidery (刺绣) in Guizhou, Ling began to explore the art of expressing
something traditional of Chinese landscape paintings through the embroidery.
She later took part in several competitions for the disabled in Guiyang, winning more than 40 awards. The
growing recognition of Ling’s art has not only made her more confident, but also brought happiness to her life.
Since then, Ling has decided to create more paintings and embroidery to catch the beauty of the world for
people who find themselves challenged by bad luck, especially those who can’t move about by themselves.
There is a beautiful planting of green copper coin grass on Ling’s window. It reminds us that we should not be
afraid of the wind and the sun in life like grass.
24. How long has Ling Runzhi used a wheelchair?
A. For 33 years. B. For 35 years. C. For 41 years. D. For 47 years.
25. The underlined word “fulfill” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.
A. realize B. find C. follow D. lose
26. The writer’s purpose in mentioning the grass in the last paragraph is ________.
A. to introduce a kind of beautiful plant to readers B. to show the importance of it in Ling’s life
C. to encourage more people to visit Ling’s home D. to tell people to face the challenges bravely in life

Do you like to travel alone? Or do you think it is better to travel with friends? If you are still deciding, please
read on. I will explain the advantages of both ways.
One of the greatest things about traveling alone is that you can make the rules about where you go and what
you eat. You will be surprised at what you discover about yourself without any influence.
Traveling alone really shows you what you are made of and helps you to discover inner strength you didn’t
know you had. Besides, it also gives you time to think, learn and grow.
It’s easy to think that traveling alone is lonely. Although that may sometimes be true, you are hardly ever
alone. It can provide a chance for you to communicate with the locals and meet travelers from all corners of the
world, which may become your most interesting experience.
In fact, travelling to know more about the world is not easy. There is research to be done, flights to be booked
and choices to be made, not to mention that things might go wrong. One of the main advantages of traveling with

friends is being able to share these things and support each other through the process, even if it’s just someone who
will wait with your bag when you go to the bathroom.
Just as your mother always says, it’s true that traveling with others can give you a sense of safety, especially if
you are new to travel. You know that if you get lost or have your wallet stolen, there’s someone to hold your hand
when you try to explain your situation at a foreign police station.
There is no right or wrong way to travel. Whether you travel alone or team up with friends, it depends on you.
27. How does the writer introduce the topic of the passage in Paragraph 1?
A. By telling a story. B. By giving examples. C. By asking questions. D. By describing a scene.
28. Traveling with friends has the following advantages EXCEPT ________.
A. sharing a lot of things B. knowing yourself better C. getting support easily D. having a sense of safety
29. Which is the main idea of the passage?
A. The advantages of travelling alone.
B. The advantages of travelling with friends.
C. The advantages of travelling alone and travelling with friends.
D. The advantages and disadvantages of making a travel plan.
D
Scientists have studied the full genetic (基因的) information of more than 18,000 cancer samples. They found
new information about the patterns of mutations (突变) , or changes, which could help doctors provide better
treatment.
Their study, which appeared recently in the publication Science, is not the first to do such a complete genetic
study of cancer samples. But no one has ever used such a large sample size.
Serena Nik-Zainal of the University of Cambridge was part of the team that did the research. She said this was
“the largest cohort (群体) in the world. It is extraordinary.”
Over 12,000 samples in the study came from patients recruited (招募) by Britain’s National Health Service.
They were part of a project to study whole genomes (基因组) from people with common cancers and rare diseases.
The rest of the data came from existing cancer data sets.
Researchers were able to study such a large number because of the same improvements in technology that
recently permitted scientists to complete the map of the entire human genome.
Andrew Futreal, a genomic expert at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, was not involved in the study.
He said the study gave scientists some knowledge of the destructive (破坏性的) forces that caused cancer.
Cancer is a disease of the genome or full set of instructions for running cells. It happens when changes in a
person’s DNA cause cells to grow and divide uncontrollably. DNA is a substance (物质) that carries the genetic

information in the cells of living things, like a human. In 2020, there were about 19 million new cancer cases
worldwide.
For the study, researchers looked at 19 different kinds of cancer in the human body. It identified 58 new
“mutational signatures”, or pieces of evidence leading to the causes of cancer. Nik-Zainal said researchers also
confirmed 51 of more than 70 previously reported mutation patterns. Some arise (出现) because of problems within
a person’s cells; others are caused by ultraviolet (紫外线的) radiation, tobacco smoke, or chemicals.
,
Knowing more of them “helps us to understand each person’s cancer more precisely ” which can help guide
treatment, Nik-Zainal said.
Genetic sequencing, the process used to study the makeup of a cell, is already being included in cancer care. It
is part of the growing move toward personalized medicine, or care based on a patient’s genes and specific disease.
Now doctors will have much more information to draw from when they look at individual cancers.
To help doctors use this information, researchers developed a computer program that will let them find
common mutation patterns and seek out rare ones. Nik-Zainal said doctors could suggest a treatment based on a
special pattern.
Futreal said the data can also show doctors what tends to happen over time when a patient develops a cancer
with a certain mutation pattern. This will help doctors give earlier treatment and hopefully stop the developing
disease.
30. Which of the following statement is true?
A. Scientists have studied the full genetic information of more than 18,000 cancer samples.
B. They found new information about the patterns of mutations, or changes, that could help doctors provide better
treatment.
C. Their study, which appeared recently in the publication Science, is not the first to do such a complete genetic
study of cancer samples.
D. All of the above.
31. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Cancer is a kind of disease that happens when DNA in cells grow or divide.
B. Some cancers arise because of problems within a person’s cells.
C. Some cancers are caused by ultraviolet radiation, tobacco smoke, or chemicals.
D. Genetic sequencing has been used in medical treatment.
32. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. Genetic Information in Cancer.
B. A Study of Cancer Genetics to Help with Targeted Treatment.

第Ⅱ卷 （共22分）
四、（每小题2分，共8分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Lu Yuan, a college student, did a quick tour around the city of Chengdu during the weekend.
,
“Chengdu is perfect for ‘special forces style tourism’ because there are good places to take pictures and the
whole city is an amazing food court,” Lu said.
,
Recently a new kind of tourism called special forces style tourism is becoming popular in China. This new
kind of tourism means visiting tourist attractions in a short, intense period. Lu Yuan visited three local attractions
on the day she arrived, and spent the second day to see the pandas. Before catching the train home, she also did
some shopping and enjoyed a hearty dinner at a famous local restaurant.
People who like taking photos and making recordings may choose this kind of tourism. With the popularity of
social media, people prefer presenting their photos and get “likes” from their friends through social circles. At the
same time, tourist attractions provide some special photo slots (打卡点) to attract visitors. Therefore, special forces
style tourism has become a way for people to show their lives and experiences by sharing photos and recordings,
which makes people get a sense of satisfaction.
Not all Chinese people enjoy special forces style tourism. Many people prefer to take a long vacation to go to
a place for detailed tourism and experience the local way of life. They tend to enjoy slow-paced (慢速的) deep
travel, by staying for a long time to gain a deeper understanding of local culture, customs, and experience local life.
The slow-paced travel focuses more on feelings and experiences.
,
However special forces tours do not necessarily mean that you have not fully experienced the charm of
tourism. People remember the details of their travels more deeply by taking photos and recording them. These
photos have become an important way for them to recall their travels, so they are not just looking at them without
feeling them.
The value of tourism lies in discovery, experience, and perception (感知). Therefore, whether it is special
forces style tourism or slow-paced deep travel, it is worth respecting and understanding. We should all feel the
scenery of the journey with our hearts, see with our eyes and walk with our feet.
33. What does “special forces style tourism” mean?
