In this new digital era, farmers are finding ways to evolve with the times while still holding fast to their traditions.
In the quiet and excluded parts of rural China, Xiang Qing, a man born in 1990, leads a life quite unlike the bustling (熙熙攘攘的) urban existence that defines modernity. His home is Guzhang county, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture, which is located deep in western Hunan province. Xiang Qing and his 23-year-old nephew, Xiang Hong, jointly operate a video channel called “Shan Bai”. Through their videos, they showcase handicrafts and rural life in China, captivating (迷住) many young urban viewers.
“Life here unfolds at its own pace. We cultivate crops and vegetables and occasionally purchase meat at the market,” Xiang Qing said. “I’ve come across numerous comments from people who watch our videos while lying in bed at night after a busy day of work, finding them truly relaxing and comforting. I think it’s fantastic, and it’s in line with our initial intentions.”
Five years ago, Xiang Qing resigned from his job as a customer service representative in Shanghai and returned to his hometown in Guzhang county, embarking on (开始) a new journey as a video blogger. “Back in 2012, when I was a college student, film-making aroused my passion, and it has continued to be a profound and enduring interest,” he said.
Following in his uncle’s footsteps, Xiang Hong made the same life-altering decision. Having graduated from college last year, he also returned to his hometown in April from Changde, a city in Hunan, and ventured into the world of video production alongside his uncle.
Now their video channel Shan Bai has attracted more than 59.8 million followers. Xiang Qing conceptualizes, films, and edits the videos himself. Xiang Hong serves as the video presenter. Long Lingling, Xiang Qing’s wife, manages the day-to-day operations of the video account, and other family members also contribute to the video production process in different ways.
4. Why do Xiang Qing and Xiang Hong take video bloggers as their career
A. To pursue personal fame and wealth.
B. To financially support their whole family.
C. To continue their passion for film-making.
D. To promote the lifestyle in their hometown.
5. What can we learn about Xiang Qing and Xiang Hong
A. Xiang Qing inspires Xiang Hong in career-making.
B. They quit their first job and altered to video making.
C. They reached a decision of returning to hometown together.
D. They engage in each step of the video production process.
6. Which of the following can best describe Xiang Qing and Xiang Hong
A. Devoted and creative. B. Diligent and optimistic.
C. Modest and responsible. D. Ambitious and demanding.
7. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A personal diary. B. A news interview.
C. A travel brochure. D. A fashion magazine.

In a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to memorize enough situations in the test. This basic process of making associations — considered a lower-level thinking technique — is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latest AI advances.
The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning: one declarative learning, is based on exercising reason according to a set of rules or strategies — a so-called higher level of learning owned mostly by people. The other, associative learning, centers on recognizing and making connections between objects or patterns, such as “sky-blue” and “water-wet. ”
Wasserman’s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or associative learning. Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus (刺激)and had to decide, by pecking (啄) a button on the right or on the left, to which category that stimulus belonged. What made the test so demanding was that no rules or logic would help finish the task. They have to memorize the individual stimuli or regions from where the stimuli occur. Over hundreds of tests, the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50% to an average of 68% right.
“The pigeons are like AI masters” Wasserman says. “Both of them employ associative learning, and yet that base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately score successfully.” If people were to take the same test, they’d score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules or strategies. Those rules would get in the way of learning. The pigeon doesn’t have that high-level thinking process. But it doesn’t get in the way of their learning. In fact, in some ways it facilitates it.
“People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm (算法) much like the pigeon,” Wasserman says, “yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals, it is discounted as inflexible and uncomplicated. ”
8. Which of the following is a typical example of associative learning
A. Tom refuses to put hands on hot stoves after burns.
B Dolphins detect obstacles using sound waves.
C. Chimpanzees use physical gesture strategies.
D. Emily figures out math problems with logic.
9. How did the pigeons improve their performance in the test
A. By pecking the stimuli.
B. By finding rule or logic.
C. By competing with each other.
D. By making numerous attempts.
10. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. AI and man use the same learning pattern.
B. Associative learning is underestimated.
C. People think highly of declarative learning.
D. Pigeons finish tasks with AI algorithms.
11. Which can be a suitable title of the text
A. Pigeon’s Peck Can Mirror High Tech
B. AI Contributes to a New Learning Pattern
C. AI Can Enrich Human Learning Experience
D. Pigeon’s Learning Largely Extends High Tech
D
Virtual realty can improve brain activity that may be crucial for leaning, memory and even treating Alzheimer’s, a study on rats has found.
After monitoring the rats’ brain activity, researchers from the University of California Los Angeles discovered electrical activity in a region known as the hippocampus neurons (海马体神经元) differed depending on whether the rats were placed in real-world or VR environments. The new findings are significant as the hippocampus is a primary driver of learning and memory in the brain.
When rats walk around in real life, electrical activity in the hippocampus appears to synchronize (同步发生) at a rate of eight heartbeats per second. Heartbeats at this frequency are generally known as “theta ( ) waves”, with stronger waves seeming to improve the brain's ability to learn and keep sensory information. When placed in a VR environment, the rat’s waves became stronger.
“It turns out that amazing things happen when the rat is in virtual reality” said Prof Mayank Mehta from UCLA. The scientists also found that VR environments could change different electrical rhythms (节律) in different parts of the neurons, which indicates that scientists may be able to control human brain rhythms.
“This is a new technology that has great potential,” Mehta said. The study also indicates why VR may stimulate these unique brain waves. A big part of it, Mehta puts, may be down to the very different set of stimuli presented in VR.
Imagine that you’re approaching a doorway in real life. Your eyes see the door getting larger. But how do you know that you’re moving forward and the door isn’t coming to you The answer is that your brain uses information such as the acceleration of your head through space or the shift of weight from one foot to the other-information that may not be present during a VR experience.
12. According to the passage, why are the new findings important
A. VR’s contributions to learning have finally been identified.
B. VR can affect electrical activity in the hippocampus neurons.
C. VR produces the same effects on brains as real environments.
D. VR is likely to become another driver for learning and memory.
13. What can we learn about waves
A. They don’t respond to different brain rhythms.
B. They remain stable in different environments.
C. They affect how human perceive knowledge.
D. They have lite to do with the rate of heartbeats.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A. The potential of the new technology.
B. The control of human brain rhythms.
C. The change in different parts of neurons.
D. The stimulation of the unique brain waves.
15. How does the author introduce VR’s different set of stimuli
A. By conducting further tests on rats. B. By comparing different environments.
C. By providing a detailed analysis D. By explaining the theory of VR.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Boundaries are personal guidelines that define what is and isn’t okay in your interpersonal relationships. As everyone has different needs and comfort levels, they may appear different for each person. Having healthy boundaries may provide such benefits as avoiding burnout, boosting self-esteem and maintaining personal space. ____16____ After setting your boundaries, it’s helpful to review them on a regular basis to remain relevant to your life circumstances.
____17____ The way you set them reflects your attitude to taking responsibility in life. Taking the time to think about your wants and needs in different situations will help you understand how your values influence boundary-setting. Once you have made the list of your values, needs, and wants, use that knowledge to establish clear boundaries that respect yourself and those around you.
Once you have identified your boundaries, it is important to communicate them effectively. ____18____ Express your ideas in an open and straightforward manner; speak up for yourself so that others can hear, understand and respect your needs. Additionally, take a step back if tensions arise during a conversation about setting boundaries. Allow yourself or the other person to cool down before restarting the conversation. ____19____
When learning how to set healthy boundaries, it is essential to learn how to say “no”. Saying “yes” to everything can lead to stress, burnout, and frustration. It is important to understand what you consider acceptable and unacceptable, setting limits that reflect those standards. ____20____ If the situation persists, remove yourself from it respectfully. You deserve more than surrounding yourself with people who don’t value your values.
A. Honesty and respect play an essential key role in the process.
B. Initially, you are supposed to identify your personal boundaries.
C. When you feel that someone has crossed your boundaries, remind them.
D. Therefore, setting healthy boundaries is of vital importance in social activities.
E. Keep saying “no” to things you disapprove of helps to understand yourself better.
F. This contributes to finding possible solutions to issues regarding boundary-setting.
G. Pick up the conversation unless there appears another argument needed to be settled.

In a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to memorize enough situations in the test. This basic process of making associations — considered a lower-level thinking technique — is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latest AI advances.
The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning: one declarative learning, is based on exercising reason according to a set of rules or strategies — a so-called higher level of learning owned mostly by people. The other, associative learning, centers on recognizing and making connections between objects or patterns, such as “sky-blue” and “water-wet. ”
Wasserman’s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or associative learning. Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus (刺激)and had to decide, by pecking (啄) a button on the right or on the left, to which category that stimulus belonged. What made the test so demanding was that no rules or logic would help finish the task. They have to memorize the individual stimuli or regions from where the stimuli occur. Over hundreds of tests, the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50% to an average of 68% right.
“The pigeons are like AI masters” Wasserman says. “Both of them employ associative learning, and yet that base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately score successfully.” If people were to take the same test, they’d score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules or strategies. Those rules would get in the way of learning. The pigeon doesn’t have that high-level thinking process. But it doesn’t get in the way of their learning. In fact, in some ways it facilitates it.
“People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm (算法) much like the pigeon,” Wasserman says, “yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals, it is discounted as inflexible and uncomplicated. ”
8. Which of the following is a typical example of associative learning
A. Tom refuses to put hands on hot stoves after burns.
B. Dolphins detect obstacles using sound waves.
C. Chimpanzees use physical gesture strategies.
D. Emily figures out math problems with logic.
9. How did the pigeons improve their performance in the test
A. By pecking the stimuli.
B. By finding rule or logic.
C. By competing with each other.
D. By making numerous attempts.
10. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. AI and man use the same learning pattern.
B. Associative learning is underestimated.
C. People think highly of declarative learning.
D. Pigeons finish tasks with AI algorithms.
11. Which can be a suitable title of the text
A. Pigeon’s Peck Can Mirror High Tech
B. AI Contributes to a New Learning Pattern
C. AI Can Enrich Human Learning Experience
D. Pigeon’s Learning Largely Extends High Tech

细节理解题。根据第三段“Over hundreds of tests, the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50% to an average of 68% right.(经过数百次测试,四只测试鸽子的平均正确率从50%提高到68%。)”可知,鸽子在测试中通过多次尝试提高它们的表现。选项D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm (算法)much like the pigeon, ’ Wasserman says, ‘yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals, it is discounted as inflexible and uncomplicated. ’(沃瑟曼说:“人们惊讶于人工智能使用像鸽子一样的学习算法做出惊人的事情,然而,当人们谈论人类和动物的联想学习时,它被认为是不灵活和简单的。”)”可知,人们认为联想学习法对人类和动物来说不灵活且简单,但人工智能却用这种学习法做出惊人的事情,由此推知,联想学习之是被低估了的。选项B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段“In a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to memorize enough situations in the test. This basic process of making associations — considered a lower-level thinking technique — is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latest AI advances.(在一项新的研究中,爱荷华州心理学家Ed Wasserman对鸽子进行了复杂的分类测试,这些测试是高级思维无法帮助解决的。相反,鸽子通过反复试验,最终能够在测试中记住足够多的情况。这种建立联系的基本过程——被认为是一种较低层次的思维技巧——在参与测试的鸽子和最新的人工智能发展之间是一样的。)”和第三段中“Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus (刺激) and had to decide, by pecking (啄) a button on the right or on the left, to which category that stimulus belonged. (每只测试鸽都被展示了一个刺激,并必须通过啄右边或左边的按钮来决定这个刺激属于哪一类)”可知,心理学家通过实验证明鸽子和最新的人工智能使用了同样的建立联系的学习过程,同时实验中的鸽子需要通过啄按钮来完成任务。结合选项可推知,可用“Pigeon’s Peck Can Mirror High Tech (鸽子啄按钮与高科技有共通之处)”是最佳标题。选项A。

Virtual realty can improve brain activity that may be crucial for leaning, memory and even treating Alzheimer’s, a study on rats has found.
After monitoring the rats’ brain activity researchers from the University of California Los Angeles discovered electrical activity in a region known as the hippocampus neurons (海马体神经元) differed depending on whether the rats were placed in real-world or VR environments. The new findings are significant as the hippocampus is a primary driver of learning and memory in the brain.
When rats walk around in real life, electrical activity in the hippocampus appears to synchronize (同步发生) at a rate of eight heartbeats per second. Heartbeats at this frequency are generally known as “theta ( ) waves”, with stronger waves seeming to improve the brain's ability to learn and keep sensory information. When placed in a VR environment, the rat’s waves became stronger.
“It turns out that amazing things happen when the rat is in virtual reality” said Prof Mayank Mehta from UCLA. The scientists also found that VR environments could change different electrical rhythms (节律) in different parts of the neurons, which indicates that scientists may be able to control human brain rhythms.
“This is a new technology that has great potential,” Mehta said. The study also indicates why VR may stimulate these unique brain waves. A big part of it, Mehta puts, may be down to the very different set of stimuli presented in VR.
Imagine that you’re approaching a doorway in real life. Your eyes see the door getting larger. But how do you know that you’re moving forward and the door isn’t coming to you The answer is that your brain uses information such as the acceleration of your head through space or the shift of weight from one foot to the other-information that may not be present during a VR experience.
12. According to the passage, why are the new findings important
A. VR’s contributions to learning have finally been identified.
B. VR can affect electrical activity in the hippocampus neurons.
C. VR produces the same effects on brains as real environments.
D. VR is likely to become another driver for learning and memory.
13. What can we learn about waves
A. They don’t respond to different brain rhythms.
B. They remain stable in different environments.
C. They affect how human perceive knowledge.
D. They have lite to do with the rate of heartbeats.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A. The potential of the new technology.
B. The control of human brain rhythms.
C. The change in different parts of neurons.
D. The stimulation of the unique brain waves.
15. How does the author introduce VR’s different set of stimuli
A. By conducting further tests on rats. B. By comparing different environments.
C. By providing a detailed analysis D. By explaining the theory of VR.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B

Boundaries are personal guidelines that define what is and isn’t okay in your interpersonal relationships. As everyone has different needs and comfort levels, they may appear different for each person. Having healthy boundaries may provide such benefits as avoiding burnout, boosting self-esteem and maintaining personal space. ____16____ After setting your boundaries, it’s helpful to review them on a regular basis to remain relevant to your life circumstances.
____17____ The way you set them reflects your attitude to taking responsibility in life. Taking the time to think about your wants and needs in different situations will help you understand how your values influence boundary-setting. Once you have made the list of your values, needs, and wants, use that knowledge to establish clear boundaries that respect yourself and those around you.
Once you have identified your boundaries, it is important to communicate them effectively. ____18____ Express your ideas in an open and straightforward manner; speak up for yourself so that others can hear, understand and respect your needs. Additionally, take a step back if tensions arise during a conversation about setting boundaries. Allow yourself or the other person to cool down before restarting the conversation. ____19____
When learning how to set healthy boundaries, it is essential to learn how to say “no”. Saying “yes” to everything can lead to stress, burnout, and frustration. It is important to understand what you consider acceptable and unacceptable, setting limits that reflect those standards. ____20____ If the situation persists, remove yourself from it respectfully. You deserve more than surrounding yourself with people who don’t value your values.
A. Honesty and respect play an essential key role in the process.
B. Initially, you are supposed to identify your personal boundaries.
C. When you feel that someone has crossed your boundaries, remind them.
D. Therefore, setting healthy boundaries is of vital importance in social activities.
E. Keep saying “no” to things you disapprove of helps to understand yourself better.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是安庆黄梅戏艺术剧院在北京中国评剧大剧院演出了黄梅戏作品《太阳山上》。
【41题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:12月4日,安庆黄梅戏艺术剧院在北京中国评剧大剧院演出了黄梅戏作品《太阳山上》。分析句子结构可知,此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语on Dec 4,此处应使用一般过去时,present与句子主语The Huangmei Opera piece On Sun Mountain之间为被动关系,且句子主语为第三人称单数。故填was presented。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:故事发生在太阳山,山脚下一个小镇的报务员李安本的故事就此展开。分析句子结构可知,此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺少主语和宾语,所以使用关系副词,先行词Sun Mountain指的是地点,所以使用关系副词where。故填where。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:故事发生在太阳山,山脚下一个小镇的报务员李安本的故事就此展开。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定短语at the foot of意为“在……脚下”符合句意。故填at。
【44题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:李安本最初被描述为贪婪和懒惰,随着剧情的发展,他经历了一个显著的转变。分析句子结构可知,此处为谓语动词,progress与句子主语之间为主动关系,根据语境以及下文中的谓语动词undergoes可知,此处应为一般现在时,且在句子主语the plot为第三人称单数。故填progresses。
【45题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:新四军战士们牺牲自己的生命从日本侵略者手中拯救了他的母亲,他们的无私感动了小人物李安本。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,结合句意,move与逻辑主语, Li’s character之间为被动关系,所以此处使用过去分词形式,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Moved。
【46题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这部改编的黄梅戏向观众介绍了传统艺术形式的悠扬曲调,优美的舞蹈动作和演唱风格。分析句子结构可知,此处为形容词修饰名词dance movements,grace的形容词为graceful意为“优美的”符合句意。故填graceful。
【47题详解】
考查冠词。句意:演出为舞台带来了全新的视角,让观众沉浸在一个勇敢和牺牲的感人故事中。分析句子结构可知,perspective意为“视角”为可数名词单数,其前无限定词,所以此处使用冠词,结合句意可知,此处表示“一个全新的视角”为泛指意义,fresh的首个音素为辅音,所以使用不定冠词a。故填a。
【48题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:演出为舞台带来了全新的视角,让观众沉浸在一个勇敢和牺牲的感人故事中。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,immerse与逻辑主语之间为主动关系,所以此处应使用现在分词形式。故填immersing。
【49题详解】
考查名词。句意:演出为舞台带来了全新的视角,让观众沉浸在一个勇敢和牺牲的感人故事中。分析句子结构可知,此处为名词作宾语,与sacrifice为并列关系,brave的名词为bravery意为“勇敢”,且为不可数名词。故填bravery。
【50题详解】

It's important to have regularly meals with the whole family. Because my parents and I am busy, we seldom have a chance to eat together. However, we think we should enjoy meals together in evening. First we considered set three fixed days every week, and everyone was unhappy. Then Mom suggested we tell her our most convenient days and he chose the two best days. I thought it bored at first I'd rather to spend time with my friends. Gradually, though, I began to see these evening together as interesting. We laughed a lot. We discussed each other problems. Now we are able to build much stronger relationships in my family.
【答案】1.regularly→regular;2.am→are;3.在in和evening之间加the;4.set→setting;5.and→but/yet;6.he→she;7.bored→boring;8.把spend前的to去掉;9. evening→evenings ;10.other→other’s
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了有规律的家庭聚餐非常重要,它让家庭沟通更顺畅。
【详解】1.考查形容词。句意:和全家人有规律地吃饭是很重要的。句中meals是名词,由形容词修饰,regularly是副词,其形容词是regular。故把regularly改成regular。
2.考查主谓一致。句意:因为我和父母都很忙,我们很少有机会一起吃饭。my parents and I是because引导的原因状语从句的主语,复数形式,所以谓语动词用复数。故把am改成are。
3.考查固定用法。句意:然而,我们认为我们应该在晚上一起吃饭。固定用法:in the evening“在晚上”。故在in和evening之间加the。
4.考查动名词作宾语。句意:首先,我们考虑过每周定三个固定的日子,但每个人都不高兴。动词consider“考虑”后面用动名词作宾语。故把set改成setting。
5.考查并列连词。句意:首先,我们考虑过每周定三个固定的日子,但每个人都不高兴。前后是一种转折关系。故把and改成but/yet。
6.考查人称代词主格。句意:然后妈妈建议我们告诉她我们最方便的日子,她选了两个最好的日子。这里主语是Mom,所以用she替代。故把he改成she。
7.考查形容词。句意:刚开始我觉得很无聊,我宁愿花时间和朋友们在一起。情感形容词boring的意思是“令人厌烦的”,修饰“物”;bored的意思是“感到厌烦”,修饰“人”。此处指“这件事是令人厌烦的”,应该用boring。故把bored改成boring。
8.考查固定搭配。句意:刚开始我觉得很无聊,我宁愿花时间和朋友们在一起。固定搭配:would rather do sth.“宁愿做某事”。故把spend前的to去掉。
9.考查名词复数。句意:然而,渐渐地,我开始觉得在一起度过这些夜晚很有趣。指示代词these后面跟名词复数。故把evening改成evenings。
10.考查名词所有格。句意:我们讨论了彼此的问题。修饰名词problems,用所有格,each other“互相,彼此”,其所有格是each other’s“互相的,彼此的”。故把other改成other’s。
