NEW DELHI---Acupuncture(针灸) has become a bridge of friendship between
India and China, with more Indians accepting the form of traditional Chinese medicine
over the past few decades, experts say.
Acupuncture, a technique to cure various illnesses, was introduced in India in 1959
by B．K. Basu in the eastern city of Kolkata, capital of West Bengal state, according to
Mrigendranath Gantait, president of the Acupuncture Association of India. Over the past
six decades, it has spread to rural, semi -urban and urban areas in India, particularly in
the states of West Bengal, Maharashtra and Punjab.
Acupuncture therapy in India is related to the story of the Indian medical mission
that was sent to China to provide medical assistance during the Chinese people’s War of
Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-1945). Basu, as a colleague of
Dwarkanath Kotnis (widely known as Ke Dihua in China) and a torchbearer of the
Indian medical mission, stayed in China from 1938 to 1943,and later worked for 43
years in India until his death in 1986. From 1958 to 1959, Basu stayed in China to learn
acupuncture before introducing the needle techniques in India. In 1973, Basu was
invited to China to learn newly developed acupuncture anesthesia (麻醉).
From the very beginning, Basu tried to spread acupuncture to doctors by free
teaching to broad masses of people. Basu, who established the Dr. Dwarkanath Kotnis

savings to the government of West Bengal state for the purpose of acup uncture
development.
Under the leadership of the committee, free health service clinics have been set up
where acupuncture is taken as the main treatment modality (模式), because the cost of
acupuncture treatment is low, and acupuncture is effective for many ailments(小病). The
committee has also produced many acupuncturists who run these clinics without taking
any remuneration (报酬), according to Gantait.
“Acupuncture has played a unique role to promote people’s friendship between
India and China,” he says. “When Basu returned to India after learning acupuncture
anesthesia, the Indian media described it as acupuncture diplomacy, and it was highly
praised in the country.”
24．According to the passage, which of the following is true about acupuncture therapy
in India?
A. It was developed by B．K. Basu, a great
doctor.

countryside.
C. It has played a unique role in producing
acupuncturists.
D. It is effectivefor many ailments and it is free
of charge.
25. The purpose of Paragraph 3 is to ______.
A. introduce Dr. Basu’s experience in China
B. explain why Dr. Basu learned acupuncture in China
C. give some background information about acupuncture therapy in India

CIn 1990, Hal Donaldson was 23 years old, fresh out of college and found himself
in Calcutta, India, where he was asked to interview Mother Teresa.
Donaldson says about the great woman famed for feeding the hungry, “She wasn’t
wearing shoes and her ankles were swollen. She sat down with me and was very polite.”
After the interview, Mother Teresa asked him, “What are you doing to help the poor?”
Donaldson admitted that he was young and wasn’t focused on helping others. With a
smile on her face, Mother Te re sa said, “Everyone can do something.”
Those words deeply struck Donaldson and forced him to face some hard truths
about himself.
Hal Donaldson grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. When he was 12 years old,
his parents were hit by a drunk driver; his father died, and his mother was seriously
injured. To make ends meet, they went on welfare. Donaldson says, “I had holes in my
shoes and clothes. When you're teased at school for that, you just want to escape.”
He managed to do just that. Donaldson got into college and turned his focus to
making money for himself. He says, “I was just trying to find my way out of
insignificance. However, it’s easy to overlook others along the wa y. I was the guy that
would see a homeless person and cross the street, so I didn’t have to confront him. My
focus was on climbing to the top instead of helping those trying to climb with me.”
Donaldson returned home from India with a differentthought. He traveled to eight
cities in America and stayed on the streets and listened to stories of the homeless. “My
heart broke,” he says, “I knew I could no longer just live for myself.”
Inspired by Mother Teresa’s words and the stories he’d heard across America,
Donaldson loaded a pick - up truck with $300 worth of groceries and handed them out
to anyone who needed help. In 1994, Donaldson created the nonprofit organization,
Convoy for Hope, which works with communities across America and around the world.
Their work focuses on feeding children, women’s empowerment ( 权力), helping
farmers and disaster services.
28. What did 23-year- old Hal Donaldson do in India?
A. He attended an interview for a college.
B. He fed the hungry with Mother Teresa.
C. He interviewed Mother Teresa.
D. He did something to help the poor.
29. What can we learn about Hal Donaldson from paragraph 4?
A. He was born with disability.

C. He was well treated at school.
D. He survived as a parentless boy.
30. How does Hal Donaldson describe himself in college?
A. Self - centered. B. Sympathetic. C. Popular. D. Casual.
31. How did Hal Donaldson change after he returned home from India?

D. He gradually devoted himself to helping others.

A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has
created a type of buoy (浮标) that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds ,
thus preventing them from getting caught in gillnets (刺网) — a type of vertical (垂直
的) fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly invisible underwater .
Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gillnets.
Some estimatessuggestthat up to a half - million birds are caught in them each year.
Over the years, researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch
fish near or in gillnets, but those didn’t work well.
To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds
ina general sense, looking to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds
avoided eye contact with other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple
idea — they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes
(金鱼眼) to the top of it . They made the eyes big enough so that even birds with poor
eyesight, such as geese, would see them, Adding to the effectiveness of the device ,
waves made the eyes move back and forth , And the wind made the buoy spin very
slowly , making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes .
To test their idea, the researchers selected several sitesnear gillnets and counted how
many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then
set up their googly - eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62
days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gillnets dropped by
approximately 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. They also found that the birds
were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks after they
had been removed.

D. To effectively identify the right direction.
34. What does the researchers’ test result mainly suggest?

B. Gillnets are a death valley for seabirds

September 23rd marks the start of a new season. 36 In Great Britain,
the third season of the year usually has only one name: autumn. But if you travel
across the
Atlantic, you’ll find that people use both fall and autumn interchangeably when
referring
to this time of year, making it the only season in the English language with two
widely
accepted names. 37
According to Dictionary.com, fall isn’t a modern name that followed the more
traditional autumn. The two terms are actually first recorded within a few hundred years,
with the term fall being used even a bit earlier.

nod to the act of gathering and preserving crops in the field before winter. In the 1500s,
English speakers began referring to the season separating the hot and cold months as
either the fall of the leaf or the spring of the leaf, or fall and spring for short. 39
陕西师大附中渭北中学高2023届高三期初检测英语试题 第8页 共12页By the end of the 1600s, autumn, from the French word “automne” and the Latin
“autumnus”, had overtaken fall as the standard British term for the third season.
Around the same time England adopted autumn, the first-ever British American
colonists (殖民者) were voyaging to North America. 40 While the former fell
out of fashion overseas, it established itself in the local vocabulary by the time America
won its independence. Today, using both words to describe the season before winter is
still a unique American behavior.
A. With them they brought the words fall and autumn.
B. The Americans prefer using fall to using autumn.
C. However, what exactly you should call that season depends on where you are.
D. But for some reason, only spring had staying power in Britain.
E. It is time to gather apples, rice and other things for the farmers.
F. So what is it about the season that makes it so special?
G. Before either word appeared, the season between summer and winter was known as
harvest.

Shakespeare said, “All the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely
players.” 41 , now it is surprisingthat dogs are determined to get into that act as
well—or at least that was the 42 for one homeless dog in the Turkish cityof Izmit.
When the dog made his 43 during an outdoor performance being given by a
local theatrical troupe ( 剧团), he wasn’t 44 applause. It seems that Numan
Ertugrul Uzunsoy’s acting of an injured man was so 45 that the dog believed the
actor was actually hurt and in need of 46 .
As Uzunsoy lay on the ground feigning (假装) a 47 from a horse, the dog
came up to him and 48 began to lick his face and neck. It took a few seconds for
Uzunsoy to 49 what was happening. “I felt warmth on my face. At first, I thought
my costar (合演者)was 50 me,” Uzunsoysaid. “I was very 51 when I felt
the dog’s kisses... I was very glad. He wanted to 52 me. It was a very emotional
and surprising moment for me. I was not 53 it.”
While the audience and cast members were obviously amused by the dog and didn’t
mind the 54 , the dog was led offstage later. Uzunsoy continued his character and

since the good dog was known to frequent the area where the performance took place,
Uzunsoy was 57 that he would see his unintentional costar again.
Dog-loving Uzunsoy is determined to 58 the sweet-natured dog, so he plans
to 59 coming back until he meets his scene-stealing four-legged friend again.
Once he does, Uzunsoy promises to make sure this good boy lands a(n) 60 on
stage—to be his real costar.
