Coming into the freshman year at Paul College, Sansa was concerned about her ability as an individual to
make an impact on such a large community, for it was never hard for her to stand out from peers in high school.
Luckily, each first-year student in Paul College takes part in what is called the First-year Innovation and Research
Experience, commonly referred to as the FIRE Program, an extracurricular project assigned by the institution. She
was able to forge invaluable connections with her fellow students and their peer advisor who had so much first-
hand experience with what they all were going through.
The biggest highlight of her freshman year was working alongside her FIRE team on a Grand Challenge
Project, in which every FIRE team competed against one another in the Undergraduate Research Conference. Each
team had to create a unique product that tackled one of the five following real-world problems: “Water is Life”,
“Food”, “Threats from Cyberspace”, “Medical Breakthroughs”, and “Addictive Society”. Her team addressed the
growing issue of “Addictive Society”. Doing research, collecting facts and organizing discussions or even debates
were a huge amount of work before they went to vie with other teams.
After weeks of tireless preparation, their collective efforts bore fruit at the Undergraduate Research
Conference. They earned a spot in the final round of the conference, where they competed against the top team
from each of the other Grand Challenge groups. They were so overcome with pride when they were finally
announced as the overall first-place team at the college!
If it hadn’t been for her group’s determination, excellent teamwork and their awesome peer advisor Hayley,
they would not have been able to accomplish everything they did. This experience would be instrumental in her
future.
24.What do we know about Sansa from paragraph 1?
A.She performed quite well in high school.
B.She was much more experienced than her college schoolmates.
C.She applied for the FIRE Program.D.She had trouble with her freshman year.
25.How did each team compete against one another?
A.By providing facts.
B.By creating products.
C.By organizing debates.
D.By challenging each other.
26.What does the underlined phrase “vie with” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Contest against. B.Give way to.
C.Break up with. D.Make up with.
27.What is probably Sansa’s biggest gain from the FIRE Program?
A.Financial benefits. B.Academic reputation.
C.Good relationships. D.Competitive opponents.

As a research scholar at the Indian Institute for Science Education and Research, I once monitored birds that
inhabited grasslands in Daying Ering Memorial Wildlife Sanctuary, a protected area in Northeast India. This habitat
forms a part of one of the most bio-diverse places on Earth. Yet despite their ecological importance and uniqueness,
most grasslands are classified by the Indian government as “wastelands”.
Ecosystems throughout the world are suffering from the effects of unchecked habitat loss and climate change.
While all types of ecosystems—forests, grasslands, oceans, wetlands and deserts—feel these effects, there is
evidence of bias (偏好) towards the conservation of forest biodiversity. This bi as hurts the preservation of other
ecosystems, including the grasslands that make up 24 percent of the Indian landmass. These grasslands are home to
important biodiversity and support the livelihoods of millions of people, yet are defined in India by their value in
being turned into forests for fighting climate change.
Apart from being costly, the move overlooks the ecological and social value of grasslands by turning them into
mono-culture forests, which do not provide the same ecological benefits. Yet, grasslands could be equally good at
storing carbon.
India and other countries with substantial grasslands need to recognize, support and prioritize evidence-based
scientific attempts that focus on grasslands by establishing grassland-specific restoration efforts, as well as by
mapping their extent and the ecosystem services they provide for humans. The time is ripe for abandoning outdated
labelings like “wastelands”.Already, communities like the Todas and the Idu Mishmi people are protecting grasslands in India through
collective action and local stewardship (管理), which are helping them connect with the grasslands. With the aim of
preserving the richness of nature, the government must restore greater rights to local communities to manage
grasslands. Grasslands are an important feature of an ecologically sound India, one that must be preserved for that
value above all others.
28.What does the author want to stress in the second paragraph?
A.Forests are hotspots of biodiversity. B.Deserts badly affect local ecology.
C.Climate change threatens ecosystems. D.Grasslands need equal conservation.
29.What is the author’s attitude to Indian government’s move?
A.Tolerant. B.Unclear. C.Negative. D.Favorable.
30.Who should be encouraged to protect the grasslands according to the text?
A.Government officials. B.Local communities.
C.University researchers. D.International agencies.
31.Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A.Stop Treating Grasslands as Wastelands B.Take Active Steps to Limit Grasslands
C.Recognize the Polluted Grasslands D.Transform Grasslands into Forests

Slowly, a great white shark swims toward the boat and onto a specialized lift. Once the shark is lifted onto the
boat, the research team from OCEARCH, a nonprofit that specializes in shark tracking, performs about a dozen
procedures.
The work is part of OCEARCH’s efforts to study great whites in the western North Atlantic, a less well-
researched population than others around the world. “Here we are at the location of Jaws, and yet we didn’t really
know the animals as well as we should,” says Bob Hueter, the chief scientist.
Two young great whites tagged (打标签) in this way, Simon and Jekyll, recently became famous thanks to a
social media post that pointed out the pair had been traveling together for 4,000 miles up the North American
Atlantic coast. People began to wonder if the sharks might be friends, but the situation is not so simple.
The two males were first tagged off the coast of Georgia in December 2022.The electronic tags transmit (传
送) data via satellite when one of the sharks surfaces, allowing researchers to follow the animals’ movements online
in real time. When Simon and Jekyll reached Long Island, researchers noticed their tracks were remarkably similar.
Then they arrived in Novia Scotia within practically the same day!Although this was a one-time event, such a similar route for the two sharks over a longtime and distance is
significant. Great whites are traditionally viewed as solitary (独行者), but researchers believe they may display
some social behaviors like other shark species. One study found that white sharks may remain close while hunting
to benefit from food. “Surprisingly, we see more and more that white sharks might fit into that social category,”
says Yannis Papastamatiou, a biologist at Florida International University.
However, Salvador Jorgensen, a marine ecologist at California State University, thinks there may be other
reasons why the pair followed the same route.
32.What is the purpose of OCEARCH’s efforts?
A.To further study great whites. B.To attract wildlife lovers.
C.To control the number of sharks. D.To protect natural habitats.
33.Why are Simon and Jekyll tagged?
A.To distinguish them from other species. B.To track their travel routes.
C.To enable them to swim long distances. D.To guarantee their safety.
34.Which statement will Yannis probably agree with?
A.The average size of the species has declined.
B.Many animals like to live in warmer weather.
C.The sharks reached Novia Scotia as expected.
D.White sharks tend to be social animals at times.
35.What might the author continue talking about?
A.The patience the pair showed. B.The hardship the sharks underwent.
C.Other factors guiding the pair’s behavior. D.Coastal waters appealing to white sharks.

On a snowy day Steve sat down on the usual seat in the Union Square. Every Thanksgiving for nine years he
had sat down there at one in the afternoon. Every time, a wonderful thing happened to him, which made his heartfeel full of joy.
On those other Thanksgiving Days, Steve usually had been hungry. But today Steve was not hungry. He had
come from a dinner so big that he had almost no power to move. His body had suddenly become too big for his
clothes; it seemed ready to break out of them. They were torn. You could see his skin through a hole in the front of
his shirt. But the cold wind, with snow in it, felt pleasantly cool to him.
The dinner had not been expected. He had been passing a large house near the beginning of that great broad
street called Fifth Avenue, where lived two ladies of an old family who had a deep love of tradition that on
Thanksgiving Day food will be offered to the first hungry person to walk by. Today Steve happened to be the one to
pass by on his way to the park.
Steve sat in the park, appearing to be waiting for somebody, but appearing not to expect something to happen.
Suddenly his eyes grew wider and his breath stopped. For the old gentleman was coming across Fourth Avenue
toward Steve’s seat.
Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years the old gentleman had come there to find Steve on his seat. Then he
had led Steve to a restaurant and watched him eat a big dinner, which had been a part of Thanksgiving Day. The old
gentleman was thin and tall and sixty. His hair was whiter and thinner than it had been last year. His legs shook,
seeming not as strong as they were the year before.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As this kind old gentleman came toward him, Steve began to shake and his breath was shorter.
