I. 阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2.5分，共50分）
第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
Bishop Patrick Chauvet, Notre Dame’s manager, admitted that the famous building would close for “five to six years” as he spoke with local business owners Wednesday. He added that it was unclear what the church’s 67 employees would be doing in the future but he promised the building would revive after being restored. French President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday that he wanted the church rebuilt in five years.
﹡What are the new rules
While tourists can’t go inside the site itself, the area still may prove popular to those paying their respects. Visitors are welcome to write messages of support about both the main and local city halls.
The island that houses the church has been closed and the people there have been evacuated since the fire. Paris businessmen who depend on Notre Dame tourism are worried about the church’s future as well as their own.
﹡________
It’s known that spring is a busy time for tourists in Paris. The travel companies recommend people visit other places, like the Basilique Saint-Denis, the Sacre-Coeur and so on. Those who tend to observe church services during Holy Week are advised to go to Saint-Eustache.
﹡Looking ahead to rebuilding.
It seems rebuilding can begin, since firefighters put out the fire early Tuesday, more than 12 hours after nearly 400 firefighters had battled the flames that changed the city’s skyline. Two policemen and one firefighter were slightly injured, according to the Paris Fire Service.
A large campaign to raise money is already underway to rebuild the church.
1．What can we learn from what the manager said
A．The famous building will be closed forever.
B．The building will be rebuilt in the future.
C．The government will give the employees jobs.
D．The president will make a plan to rebuild the building.
2．Which of the following subtitles can be filled in the blank
A．Saint-Eustache is favored by tourists. B．Tour companies offer other choices.
C．Church culture develops fast in Paris. D．The best time to visit Paris is spring.
3．According to the passage, what will happen after the fire
A．The government will arrange work for 67 employees.
B．Visitors will be forbidden to leave messages anywhere.
C．Churches in Paris will also be examined and repaired.
D．More money will be donated for the rebuilding project.
B
Artificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network and Seismology Research (TexNet) .“It’s a matter of milliseconds, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70%accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquake stations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what move science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
4．How does the AI forecast earthquakes
A．By modeling data based on earthquake recordings.
B．By monitoring changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.
C．By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.
D．By identifying data from the satellites.
5．What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3
A．The importance of preparing for earthquakes.
B．The significance of developing the AI prediction.
C．The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.
D．The limitation of AI algorithms in earthquake prediction.
6．What does the follow-up research focus on
A．Building more earthquake stations in Texas.
B．Applying the AI approach to other fields.
C．Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy.
D．Conducting tests in different locations.
7．Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology
A．Pioneering and promising. B．Potential and economical.
C．Stable but outdated. D．Effective but costly.
C
Whales and birds are frequently quoted as Earth’s chief navigators. Insects, too, are displayed-often represented by butterflies and bees. Ants, however, are rarely on the lips of those discussing nature’s best pilots. This is disheartening, particularly when considering the lack of action to address ants’ declining numbers compared with that for other insects and mammals. Like whales, ants display extraordinary spatial skills as part of their remarkable navigational toolkit. Their most well-known strategy-chemical signalling via pheromones (信息素) to guide nestmates along shared paths-barely scratches the surface.
Recent research I was involved with shows a new navigational characteristic for ants living in complex environments. Wood ants (Formica rufa) returning to the nest through the dense woodland exhibit idiosyncratic routes. That is, whereas one ant might always go to the right of a bush and then under a log when returning home, another might always go to the left and then over. This suggests the ants are relying on visual cues as opposed to pheromones, the responses to which would show considerable overlap (重合). Or note the North African desert-residing ant Cataglyphis fortis. Each ant uses an internal “step counter” and heavenly cues to calculate its position relative to the nest in the barren Saharan desert. A recent study revealed that this species also constructs mounds (土堆) as visual cues to help find the way home.
Ants don’t benefit from a wide range of conservation strategies. Humpback whales, on the other hand, have thankfully seen their numbers bounce back due to protection initiatives. Indeed, a study of UK conservation policies found that mammals receive more protection than insects.
Despite how vital insects are to our planet, their biodiversity is in danger, and it is our duty to make a case for insect protection across the board. Their remarkable navigational accuracy, originating from relatively basic neural circuits, is key to attracting public support. If only more people knew that dung beetles navigate using the Milky Way, for example, their presence on conservation lists would surely be more frequent. Perhaps thinking of insects as individual animals, rather than their collective species, is a start.
8．Why are whales and birds mentioned in the first paragraph
A．To show their reputation is not well-deserved.
B．To prove the effectiveness of conservation efforts.
C．To highlight ants’ exceptional navigational ability.
D．To confirm they are best examples of nature’s navigators.
9．Which of the following can best explain the underlined word in paragraph 2
A．Individualised. B．Identical. C．Contradictory. D．Complicated.
10．What can be inferred about the ant species from the text
A．Their simple neural circuits fail to win them protection.
B．Producing pheromones is their major means of navigation.
C．They tell directions by counting their steps in the desert.
D．Visual information accounts for their chosen route to the nest.
11．Which could be the best title of the text
A．Navigational genius: Ants’ brilliance overlooked
B．Amazing ability: Insects’ navigational secret uncovered
C．Best pilot: Ants’ signalling behavior displayed
D．Alarming fact: Mammals are being overprotected
D
Eggs make for a delicious meal, and for the past few years, we’ve been able to enjoy them guilt-free. Now, they are declared as“bad egg”again.
Researchers from Northwestern University collected data from six previous studies that tracked the health of 29, 615 adults for about 18 years on average. After gathering results from the various studies, they concluded that 300 milligrams of cholesterol (胆固醇) per day slightly raised a person’s risk of heart disease. One egg contains about 186 milligrams of cholesterol.
“These participants weren’t given periodic questionnaires, they were given one questionnaire,” says Lauren Slayton, a nutritionist. “That’s like drawing conclusions about someone’s fashion sense by what they wore 20 years ago.” No one followed up to see if the diet reports were accurate or to find out whether people changed their diet.
Frank Hu, a professor of nutrition at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health, told NPR: “So much data have already been published on this topic, which generally show that low-to-moderate egg consumption (no more than one egg per day) is not associated with increased risk of heart attack.” Plus, there are also many other risk factors that contribute to heart disease.
Before you quit your breakfast favorite, you should know that this research is far from the last word on eggs. In other words, don’t feel like you have to drop eggs from your diet based on one study. If you’re concerned about your cholesterol, discuss your diet with your doctor—and consider your exercise routine and other health factors, too. If your heart risk is rising, you may want to check out the best—and worst—diets for your heart.!
12．What is the writing purpose of the text
A．To test what previous studies found.
B．To discourage people from eating eggs every day.
C．To measure how much cholesterol an egg contains.
D．To show the link between egg-eating and health risk.
13．What can we know from Lauren Slayton’s words
A．The findings are out of date. B．This kind of research is limited.
C．No one cares about the research. D．The results should be tested again.
14．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph
A．Consult the doctor often. B．Seek for professional aid.
C．Do exercise on a daily basis. D．Have a sharp mind in your diet.
15．What is the author’s attitude toward the research
A．Cold. B．Uncertain. C．Doubtful. D．Positive.
第二节 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）
If you’ve ever been in a cheerful mood, then met up with a bad-tempered friend, you’ll know how infectious emotions can be. Before you know it, you realize that you’re feeling down too. 16 . When you’ve been sad, perhaps your friend’s liveliness has helped to lighten your mood.
You might wonder who wins out—if you’re feeling happy and your friend is feeling sad, do you yield to their sadness or do they catch your happiness Part of the answer is likely depending on their and your levels of expressiveness and receptiveness. 17 . If you smile a lot when you’re happy, you’re more likely to infect your friend. Likewise, if your friend is impressionable and more prone (有做...倾向的) to copying facial expressions, then they’ll be more likely to catch your smiles and start feeling happier.
18 . For instance, there’s evidence that fear has a smell, and that smelling the sweat of an anxious person can initiate activity in parts of the brain involved in empathy and processing emotions. In fact, there doesn’t need to be any physical contact at all. Researchers have shown that emotions can spread through social media. 19 .
If and when you encounter an opposite emotion to your own, the experience will likely vary depending on how invested you are in that other person or people. 20 . And if you’re feeling sad and a bunch of strangers surrounding you were laughing their heads off, you’re likely to find it really annoying.
A．Happily, it can work the other way around too.
B．This is especially true when we’re interacting with someone we care about.
C．Everyone varies in how emotionally expressive and impressionable they are.
D．That isn’t to say that facial expressions are the only way for emotions to spread.
E．These processes have to do with effective communication and mutual understanding.
F．If you care about them, you’ll be more motivated to shift emotionally to match their state.
G．People exposed to more negative posts are more likely to post something negative themselves.

I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I’m left 21 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 22
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, when children from different races and religions played and studied together 23 . At that time my family lived a stone’s 24 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu—we just 25 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice, well meant or otherwise. We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we’d 26 the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to 27 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 28 . When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail’s family later returned to their village, and I lost touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. When I 29 my destination, the driver acknowledged my 30 but did not move off. Instead, he looked fixedly at me. “Raddar ” he said, using my childhood nickname. I was astonished at being so 31 addressed(称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 32 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true 33 , something hard to describe.
If we can allow our children to be 34 without prejudice, they’ll build friendships with people 35 race or religion, who will be by their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and then we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, “We happy few. We band of brothers”.
