第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
A
FIVE UNUSUAL SPORTS
What sports are you into? Football? Tennis? Swimming? If you’re looking for a change, you might like to try
one of these.Octopush
Octopush (or underwater hockey as it’s also known) is a form of hockey that’s played in a swimming pool.
Participants wear a mask and snorkel and try to move a puck (水球) across the bottom of a pool. The sport has become
popular in countries such as the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa. An ability to hold your breath
for long periods of time is a definite plus.
Zoobombing
Zoobombing involves riding a children’s bike down a steep hill. The sport originated in the US city of Portland in
Oregon in 2002. Participants carry their bikes on the MAX Light Rail and go to the Washington Park station next to
Oregon Zoo (which is why it’s called “zoobombing”). From there, they take a lift to the surface, and then ride the
mini-bikes down the hills in the area.
Office Chair Racing
Office Chair Racing consists of racing down a hill in office chairs that can reach speeds of up to 30kph. Strict
rules are in place for competitors: they’re allowed to fit in-line skate wheels and handles to their chairs, but no motors.
“We check each chair carefully in advance,” one of the organisers explained. The participants race in pairs wearing
protective padding as they launch themselves from a ramp. Prizes are given to the fastest competitors and also for the
best-designed chairs.
Fit 4 Drums
Fit 4 Drums is a new form of cardio-rhythmic exercise. Led by an instructor, the class involves beating a
specially-designed drum with two sticks while dancing at the same time. It’s the first group fitness activity where you
get to play a drum while getting an intense workout. A sense of rhythm is a definite advantage!
Horse Boarding
Horse Boarding involves being towed behind a horse at 35mph on an off-road skateboard. Professional stuntman
Daniel Fowler Prime invented the sport after he strung a rope between his off-road “mountain board” and a horse.
Participants stand on a board while holding onto a rope, attempting to maintain their balance as the horse gallops
ahead. “The horse rider and the horse have to work together because if they don’t, the horse goes flying,” Daniel
explained.
So, which sport would you like to try?
21.What do you need to do if you want to play Octopush?
A.To swim on the surface of the water.
B.To eat enough food before you play Octopush.C.To play it by the side of the shore.
D.To wear a mask and underwater breathing tube
22.Which activity will you choose if you want to take part in collective fitness?
A.Zoobombing B.Office Chair Racing
C.Fit 4 Drums D.Horse Boarding
23.What proverb does Horse Boarding tell us?
A.One doesn’t have to play well, it’s enough to play better than your opponent.
B.Never let your feet run faster than your shoes.
C.The bigger they come, the harder they fall.
D.Every chess master was once a beginner.
B
Wildlife photographer Sam Turley and his wife Vera found a two-week-old blesbok (南非白面大羚羊)—whom
they named Meme—on her own. She was spotted wandering around on her own after her mother passed away.
The pair took Meme in and raised the animal themselves for seven months before releasing her back out into the
wild. Neither of them had ever raised a blesbok before. So it required a huge amount of patience and compassion to
keep her fit and healthy but it deserved the effort. Meme would follow Vera wherever she went and sometimes the
couple would have a blesbok, a dog and a cat all walking together. In the right areas, the blesbok is a really common
antelope to see and is therefore often overlooked and under-appreciated. It was a privilege to be let into the blesbok’s
secret world and they learned more about the blesbok than they thought was ever possible.
After releasing Meme back out into the wild, the couple were convinced they would never see her again, until
several months later when they were driving around a reserve and happened to come across a herd of blesboks.
Vera called out Meme’s name in the hope of finding Meme. Blesboks all look very similar to one another, which
makes it very difficult to distinguish individuals. When Vera started to talk, the herd raised their heads and looked
over. Vera continued to call Meme and as all the other blesboks lost interest, one individual held her gaze and ran
straight up to her.
After rescuing the lonely animal, Sam and Vera found it extremely emotional to have to release her back out into
the wild to fend for herself—even though they knew it was the right thing to do. But after having such a strong bond
with an animal, it was really difficult to see her go. They had put so much time, effort and energy into raising her but
to see her walking in a herd of blesboks made it all worthwhile.
24.What happened to Meme when she was spotted?A.She became an orphan. B.She was lost in the forest.
C.She was hunted by a couple. D.She was abandoned by her mother.
25.What was Meme’s life with the couple like?
A.She was rare to be seen outside.
B.She was hard to be artificially fed.
C.She fitted in well with the whole family.
D.She was under-appreciated in the family.
26.Which word can best explain the underlined word “fend” in the last paragraph?
A.Look. B.Care.
C.Search. D.Hunt.
27.Which of the following can best describe the act of rescuing the blesbok?
A.Effortless. B.Unsatisfactory.
C.Rewarding. D.Heartbreaking.
C
Tiny sensory hair cells called stereocilia(静纤毛)located in your inner ear are responsible for detecting sound.
When these become damaged, either by genetic disorders, loud sounds or old age, it can lead to hearing difficulties
and even deafness.
Now, in a series of experiments on mice, researchers based at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies and the
University of Sheffield have identified a protein that can be delivered to these hair cells in order to stimulate their
growth. “Our discovery shows that hair cell function can be restored in certain cells,” said Dr Uri Manor, assistant
research professor and director of the Waitt Advanced Biophotonics Core at Salk.
Stereocilia hair cells are found throughout the cochlea(耳蜗). Regions of the cochlea that sense low frequencies
have longer stereocilia, while regions that sense high frequencies have shorter stereocilia. When sounds enter the ear,
they cause fluid within the cochlea to vibrate(振动), which in turn causes the stereocilia to move. These hair cells
then send signals to neurons(神经元), which pass on information about the sounds that we are hearing to the brain.
In their previous studies, Manor and Prof Walter Marotti found that the protein EPS8 was involved in determining
the length of stereocilia. Without the protein, the growth of the hairs is stunted and they remain very short. For this
latest study, the two researchers teamed up to design an experiment to see if adding EPS8 to stereocilia hair cells
could stimulate their regrowth and improve hearing in mic. They used a common gene therapy(基因治疗)technique
to deliver the protein to the hair cells on the back of a virus. They then investigated the effects using imagingtechniques.
The team found that EPS8 increased the length of the stereocilia and restored their function in low-frequency
cells, although not enough to restore the hearing of the mice. However, they also found that the cells seemed to lose
their ability to regenerate as they aged. The researchers now plan to investigate the action of EPS8 further, with the
hope of extending the age range over which it is effective.
28.What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraphs 1 and 2?
A.To reveal causes of hearing problems.
B.To show different functions of stereocilia.
C.To prove the necessity of hearing protection.
D.To introduce the finding of a hearing-improving protein.
29.What does the underlined word “stunted” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Guaranteed. B.Prevented. C.Recorded. D.Reflected.
30.What did the researchers use the gene therapy technique to do?
A.Help mice grow faster. B.Keep viruses from growing.
C.Send EPS8 to stereocilia hair cells D.Remove aged stereocilia hair cells.
31.What do the researchers plan to do?
A.Restore the hearing of the mice. B.Make EPS8 effective in aging cells.
C.Investigate the formation of EPS8. D.Count low-frequency cells of aging mice.
D
Map reading, growing fruit and vegetable and basic car service are also more common skills among the baby
boomer generation. But according to a new survey, just one in three 18- to 25-year-olds are able to do basic DIY,
compared to two-thirds of those aged 58 and over.
Sarah Clarke-Kuehn, Chief Operating Officer-Commercial, said, “The survey findings are so interesting as they
highlight a very common incorrect conception related to ‘getting old’.”
When asked at what age they thought developing new skills becomes “difficult”, Gen Z respondents said they
were 35 years old, while those aged over 58 believed this number was 63 years old. The belief is that there is a
boundary between learning new skills and getting a sense of achievement. But we know that this is just not the case.
The benefits in continuing to enjoy life, as well as developing new talents are very significant—both physically and
mentally as we grow older.
Neuroscientist and author, Dr Julia Jones, said, “We underestimate our brain’s ability to continue learning. Ourbrain is the most complex and precise structure in the known universe but we only use a small part of its true potential
throughout our lifetimes. To boost continued brain health, we should learn complex and novel skills at all ages. This
becomes more important as we age, because these learning experiences help to build new connections between
neurons (神经细胞) that maintain intelligence and reduce the risk of future brain decline.”
“Learning languages and musical instruments are believed to be effective at boosting neuroplasticity (神经可
塑性) due to their complex nature, but all learning is beneficial and can bring a sense of achievement, purpose and
social engagement.”
Dr Jones added. “Find a new hobby and throw yourself into a wonderful learning experience or pick up an old
pastime and improve those skills. I’m currently learning to play the guitar and it’s opened up a whole new world of
music and fun.”
32.What is mentioned about the young generation in the text?
A.They lose interest in DIY.
B.They have no idea in plants.
C.Many of them lack some basic skills.
D.Many of them own poor reading skills.
33.What does the author imply in paragraph 3?
A.Learning brings a sense of belonging.
B.It is never too late to learn in one’s life.
C.It is necessary to show off one’s talents.
D.The benefits of lifelong learning are temporary.
34.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The significance of knowing the structure of the brain.
B.The difficulties in improving the ability of the brain.
C.The reasons for taking full advantage of the brain.
D.The process of protecting the brain from risk.
35.What is Dr Jones’ attitude to learning musical instruments?
A.Favorable. B.Negative. C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.

The days when art was an Olympic sport
Did you know that creating works of art used to be an Olympic competition? 36 In the first year, Walter
Winans became the first and the only Olympian to win medals for both art and sports. Despite this seemingly optimisticstart, the idea of the arts being included in the Olympic Games soon met with disinterest, finally resulting in the
removal of the art competition from the Olympic Games.
37
The idea to include art in the Olympics came from Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who was the founder of the
International Olympic Committee, which created the modern Olympics. Coubertin believed that the arts and sports
were linked and was impressed by anyone who had a firm command of both a sport and an artistic discipline(项目).
Why aren’t the arts included in the Olympics today?
For starters, only amateurs were allowed to compete in the arts part of the Olympics. 38 Having artists of
average quality competing while only the most competent athletes were allowed to compete created a dramatic divide
and gave the impression that the arts were not as important as sports.
Secondly, works of art created had to have sports as the subject matter. 39 Limiting the subjects also
contributed to making the arts part of the Olympic Games boring to the general public.
Finally, one of the biggest reasons was that the arts are subjective. Sports can be judged by time and distance,
making it easy to determine who is the winner. 40 This difficulty in judging a definite winner resulted in the arts
part becoming a non-competitive exhibition that ran for the duration of the Olympic Games.
A.Why was art made an Olympic discipline?
B.What is a discipline in the Olympic Games?
C.This rule made the objects produced seem really boring.
D.The arts, on the other hand, are not quite so easy to judge
E.However, the arts part of the Olympics Games was soon abandoned
F.This means that many famous artists were banned from participating.
G.For 36 years, from 1912 to 1948, artists participated in the Olympic Games.

Young boys often dream of superpowers to solve their problems. It was 1933, while the country was still 41
the Great Depression, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster put their 42 down on paper. In the process, they created
the world’s most popular superhero, Superman.
Joe was the artist and sketched all the time, 43 out at newsstands absorbed in magazines, especially
“Amazing Stories,” and then 44 to recreate them at home. Jerry was the storyteller. The idea of
Superman 45 upon him in the middle of a sleepless summer night. When the Superman’s origin storystarted 46 , he dashed over to Joe’s place and showed it to him. Then they just sat down, and worked
straight out.
As is often the case, when we experience something 47 in life, we deal with the feeling through
48 expression. Jerry’s father had died during a robbery. A young child might 49 that experience by
wishing something could have 50 it. For Jerry, out came the Man of Steel, who was 51 to
bullets and protecting innocent people was his 52 .
The story of Superman has inspired kids for generations. It has 53 their fears and driven their dreams.
Most 54 , the Man of Steel has inspired us all to find our superpower and use them to help others.
Therefore, the next time you are inspired to 55 a friend from being bullied, or help the widow next door
with your superpower smile, thank Joe and Jerry, two awkward high school kids who dreamt up Superman—making
the world a little more safe and fair.

Marine biology is the study of the ocean’s plant and animal life. Marine life gives us food, medicine and other
raw materials we need. It also supports tourism and provides us with an area of recreation.
56 (difference)forms of life live in various areas of the ocean. Some are limited to coastal and shelfareas, while others live in the open sea.
Coral reefs 57 (find) in the tropical areas of the world, but they can also exist in colder water. Reefs
are built by corals and other 58 (animal)that leave calcium on rocks. They are home to 59 vast variety
of life forms. About half of the world’s coral reefs, however,are 60 danger because of global warming
and a rise in sea temperatures.
Although we do not know very much about 61 kind of life forms exist in deep ocean trenches(深海
沟), marine scientists have found a certain type of jellyfish(水母) in the Mariana Trench, the world’s 62
(deep)ocean area. These parts of the ocean 63 (usual)have little or no sunlight and many organisms(生物)here
have to produce light 64 (they).
Marine scientists also study how waves and currents affect organisms 65 (live)in the oceans.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I’ve spent my adult life as a college professor teaching people how to think more creatively and use more of
their brainpower. Interestingly, this lifetime passion was awakened by a casual contest when I was a child.
At a family picnic for employees of the company where my father worked, they held contests for the children
— who could blow the biggest bubble-gum (泡泡糖) bubble, who could hop the longest on one leg. I was 13, full of
enthusiasm and the spirit of competition, so I threw myself into the contests. The grand finale, the handkerchief-
throwing contest, I realize now, was not meant to demonstrate any real skill, but simply for laughs. But it stirred my
love of thinking outside the box.
The judge gave each of the dozen children a cloth handkerchief and told us the winner would be the one who
threw it the farthest. The first throwers, the little ones, took mighty wind-ups (挥臂动作), but when the cloth left their
hands, it opened and fluttered (飘动) to the ground a few inches in front of them. The crowd roared with laughter,
and being 13, I didn’t like adults laughing at us.
So it made me angry to see the kids throwing harder when the handkerchief always opened, caught the air and
died. The secret was not to throw harder but to keep the cloth from opening. Suppose I hid a rock in the cloth without
tying it. The rock would drive the cloth at least farther than the others, and when they separated, people might not
notice a small rock landing in the grass. I had a good chance of getting away with it, but I didn’t want to win by
cheating. What I really wanted to do was to show them that a kid could beat them at their own game. I had to make
the handkerchief fly like a rock. Like a rock! That was it! But the question was how.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
