Dear Jenny,
I’m thrilled to hear about your interest in Chinese silk! Silk is a luxurious and elegant fabric that boasts a rich history in China, tracing back thousands of years. It’s known for its smooth texture, lustrous appearance, and great strength, which made it a valuable commodity on the ancient Silk Road.
The popularity of silk stems from its beauty and practicality. It’s not only gorgeous to look at but also cool in summer and warm in winter, making it comfortable to wear in different climates. Additionally, silk can be dyed in vibrant colors and is often used in high-quality clothing, accessories, and traditional Chinese garments like the cheongsam.
I hope this brief introduction ignites your burning interest in silk even more. Should you have any further questions or would like to experience the beauty of silk yourself, feel free to let me know!
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Finally, I found Socky and her three tiny kittens, tucked away in the furthest corner beneath a pile of old cloths, where a small, barely noticeable gap in the chest had allowed her sanctuary. Relief washed over me like a wave crashing onto the shore; they were all cuddled together, covered in a fine layer of dust but otherwise seemed healthy and content. Socky let out a low meow, her green eyes shining with a mixture of pride and relief as she gazed up at me. Her kittens, blind and barely the size of my hand, mewled softly, completely unaware of my presence, yet so full of life and new possibilities.
Socky was very pleased to see me and purred as loudly as she could. Her motor-like vibrations filled the quiet shed, and she nuzzled my hand as I knelt down to stroke her silky fur. The small space felt infinitely warmer with the little family now safe and accounted for. I gently petted the kittens, marveling at their tiny features and soft mews. It was clear that Socky had chosen a hidden spot to give birth, a place she deemed safe from the unknowns of our new environment. Her trust in this secluded nook made me realize that home isn’t just a place, but where love resides, even in the smallest and most unexpected corners of the world.无锡市2023年秋学期高三期终教学质量调研测试

All the Beauty in the World, Patrick Bringley's memoir （回忆录） about his 10 years working as a guard at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art （Met）, brings new meaning to the term "art appreciation".
Bringley is not the only Met staffer to write about the institution. But Bringley's "guard's-eye view" is unique, and he presents his personal story with sincerity. After his brother Tom's death in 2008, Bringley gave up his job as a journalist for a job in which "I was happy to be going nowhere". He explains, "I had lost someone. I did not wish to move on from that. In a sense, I didn't wish to move at all. "
All the Beauty in the World offers well-chosen facts about the museum to support Bringley's personal tale. The Met opened in 1880 and has since expanded to more than 2. 5 million square feet -"the size of about 3, 000 average New York apartments". The "salmon run （鲑鱼回游） of visitors" that goes up the Grand Staircase every morning when the museum opens adds up to a crowd of nearly 7 million visitors a year.
As interesting as these facts are, it's Bringley's reflections on dozens of individual paintings, photographs, sculptures and ancient artifacts that turn this book into a tribute （致敬） to the power of art. I think that "sometimes we need permission to stop and adore things, and a work of art gives us that". In a Vermeer portrait （肖像） of a dozing maidservant, he is moved to see that the artist captured "that feeling we sometimes have that a private setting possesses a holiness （神圣） of its own. It was my constant feeling in Tom's hospital room. "
As rich in moving insights as the Met is in treasures, All the Beauty in the World reminds us of the importance of learning not "about art, but from it" and finding peace into art. This is art appreciation at a deep level.
24. What sets All the Beauty in the World apart from other books written by Met staffers
A. The author's unique writing perspective.
B. The author's opinions on artworks.
C. Its focus on historical facts and truth.
D. Its detailed introduction to the paintings.
25. What caused Bringley to change his job according to his words
A. His hobby from childhood. B. His failure as a journalist.
C. Loss of his beloved brother. D. His ambition of being great.
26. How does Bringley present information about the Met in his memoir
A. By interviewing retired staff members.
B. By relating museum facts to his personal life.
C. By recording the number of daily visitors yearly.
D. By researching the background of each masterpiece.
27. What can be the best title of this passage
A. Finding Peace in Art B. Reflecting on Life with Art
C. Little-known Facts about the Met D. Inner Worlds of the Famous Artists
C
Blue-light-filtering glasses （滤蓝光眼镜） have become an increasingly popular solution for protecting our eyes from electronic screens' near-inescapable glow light that is commonly associated with eyestrain （眼疲劳）. In recent years they've even become fashion statements that are recognized by celebrities and ranked in style guides. But a recent review paper shows such glasses might not be as effective as people think.
The paper, published last week in Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, analyzed data from previous trials that studied how blue-light-filtering glasses affect vision tiredness and eye health. The study's authors found that wearing blue-light-filtering glasses does not reduce the eyestrain people feel after using computers.
"It's an excellent review, " says Mark Rosenfield, a professor at the State University of New York College of Optometry, who was not involved in the study. "The conclusions are no surprise at all. There have been a number of studies that have found exactly the same thing, that there's just no evidence that blue-blocking glasses have any effect on eyestrain. "He adds that the new review reinforces the fact that there is virtually no evidence that blue-blocking glasses affect eyestrain despite them being specifically marketed for that purpose. As for using blue-light-filtering eyeglasses for eye health, for now, Rosenfield says, "there's nothing to support people buying them".
The strain we may feel while staring at our phone or computer screen too long is likely to be caused by multiple factors, such as bad habits or underlying conditions, an associate professor of vision science at the University of Melbourne, Downie says. She argues that how we interact with digital devices contributes more to eyestrain than screens' blue light does. Changing the frequency and duration of screen usage and distancing one's eyes from the screens might be more important in reducing discomfort, Downie says. She adds that people who experience eyestrain should see a doctor to assess whether they have an underlying health issue such as far-sightedness or dry eye disease.
28. What can we know about blue-light-filtering glasses from the text
A. They can improve eyesight. B. They may not reduce eyestrain.
C. They can promote eye health. D. They can help to cure eye diseases.
29. What can we infer from paragraph 2
A. A great many professors were involved in the study.
B. Blue-blocking glasses on the market are harmful to eyes.
C. The finding of the study comes as a surprise to the public.
D. Data from previous trials help the study a lot.
30. What does the underlined word "reinforces" mean in paragraph 3
A. Denies. B. Opposes. C. Strengthens. D. Evaluates.
31. What should we do if we suffer from eyestrain according to Downie
A. Wear blue-light-filtering glasses. B. Have an examination in the hospital.
C. Stop staring at the screen for ever. D. Focus on the frequency of phone usage.
D
"Silence is a source of great strength. " --- Lao Tzu. When we stop bombarding （轰击） the body with sounds, we may see benefits for our brain, our blood pressure and our breathing.
Imagine a place where you can't talk, telephone, read, write or access the Internet. Boredom can soon turn into pleasure as the brain, from a state of chaos, finds peace. The explorer Erling Kagge has experienced a lot of silence during his long travel to reach the "three poles". By shutting out the world, he has learnt to see the world more clearly and unlock new ways of thinking.
Scientific studies have shown us something interesting. When mice are made to listen to silence for two hours a day for three days, brain cells in the hippocampus （the part of the brain responsible for learning and memory） increase in number. Dr. Gerd Kemperman, leading author of the paper, suggests that silence causes the production of more brain cells to increase alertness（警觉） and readiness for “future cognitive（认知的） challenges".
In humans, listening to slow music has been shown to reduce blood pressure, heart rate and breathing rate. Adding two minutes of silence to the music lowers blood pressure and breathing even further.
"Silence is golden, " but when it comes to your health, can silence also be deadly "I found solitary （单独监禁） the most forbidding aspect of prison life. There was no end and no beginning; there was only one's mind, which could begin to play tricks, " said Nelson Mandela, reflecting on his 27 years in prison.
A silent mind can be unbearable -and can even drive you over the edge. In one experiment from Harvard and the University of Virginia, some participants were so opposed to a 15-minute silence that they chose to self-administer an electric shock to escape the silence.
When silence is linked to loneliness, your physical health may also suffer. Loneliness has been shown to be associated with a 29 percent increase in risk of heart disease and a 32 percent increase in the disease -stroke.
There's another type of silence that is "killing good people" according to Prince William. It's not the lack of auditory （听觉的） input to your ears; it's failing to speak out when you're anxious or struggling to cope, and that's a major cause of suicide（自杀）.
32. What's the function of paragraph1
A. To prove an opinion. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To present an example. D. To give a definition.
33. What is the author's purpose in mentioning Erling Kagge
A. To prove everyone needs silence.
B. To give us an example to learn from.
C. To indicate silence works to our advantage at times.
D. To show humans can keep things in perspective in silence.
34. Why can silence also be deadly to some extent
A. A silent mind can cause people to fight.
B. A lonely mind with silence leads to most heart diseases.
C. Too much silence can make people physically unbearable.
D. A helpless state of mind in silence can increase the tendency of suicide.
35. What is the author's attitude towards the effect of silence
A. Negative. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Doubtful.

Among all the stress management strategies out there we have long ignored one essential factor --rest. However, there has recently been a growing realization within psychology circles that the body and mind are deeply intertwined（缠绕） with each other.
Realizing how your physical health affects the mind
36 And there have been some remarkable discoveries in the research. The brain scans have shown that our brain processes "psychological" pain, such as the kind that arises out of social exclusion （社会排斥）, in the same way it does physical pain. In fact, you can even take an aspirin for that kind of pain.
These are cases in point. 37 And if you have a bad night's sleep, everything is more stressful the next day. While you are easier to stress when you are feeling down, the flip side （反面） is that you can fight it by looking after your body.
It is now common knowledge that physical exercise, in addition to therapy, helps to reduce depression. Besides, a healthy sleeping pattern also offers protection against all kinds of psychological disorders. 38
Rethinking the value of rest
When you decide to do something about your stress levels, try to rethink the value of rest. Usually the first step is to take better care of your body. 39 Moreover, moments of rest and relaxation ought to occupy a more important place in our lives. These important moments should not be regarded as a kind of "breather" in between jobs, but as a natural and key part of our life.
Rest is actually crucial to our well-being and is good for both body and mind. We all need at least a little time to think, to reflect on life and even just do nothing. 40 We need to see it as a crucial time to build up our reserves. It is only when we fully embrace （拥抱） rest that we will be able to take a stand against stress and burnout.
A. This step can lead to mental relief as well.
B. Aside from sleep, a healthy diet is known to reduce stress.
C. But there have been very few discoveries concerning the topic.
D. Our mental health is determined largely by our physical condition.
E. Getting enough rest is not just something we should do when we are tired out.
F. Having a good rest is something we need to do when we are in psychological disorders.
G. You may suffer more from stress when you are feeling run down or are suffering from a flu.

We moved to our new place, and everything was new and unfamiliar. I didn't have new friends, so most of the time when I was free at home, I stayed with Socky, my cat and friend. One morning in winter, it was very cold outside and people mainly stayed indoors to keep warm. Before going off to my high school in Ouyen, Victoria, I called our pregnant （怀孕的） cat to be fed, but she didn't come. I thought she'd probably found somewhere to have her kittens and would turn up later. But she didn't.
When Socky still didn't come at dinnertime, I anxiously asked my mum, "Where is Socky " But she didn't know either. The next day, Socky still didn't appear and I really started to worry. Socky had kept me company for years, and she was just like my family member.
Socky had given birth to some lovely kittens before. She had a habit of having her kittens in strange places, so first I checked all her hidey-holes where she used to stay but she wasn't in any of them. I became extremely anxious. What could have happened "Where are you, dear Socky " Having waited for hours again, I couldn't sit still. The next day was Saturday and I had the whole day to search for her. Thinking over all the possible places where she could shelter herself, I rechecked under the house, then in the garage under and behind old books, every place I could think of, but still no Socky.
After lunch I took some food scraps （剩饭） with me in case I found her, then began searching the back shed, which was huge and filled with cardboard boxes full of junk and empty tea-chests （茶叶箱）. After about an hour of moving cardboard boxes from one place to another and back again, I was tired out. I sat down on an upturned tea-chest to have a rest when I heard faint mewing （喵）. I put my head up against each of the tea-chests, pressing my ear against the plywood （夹板） so I could catch the faint sounds. I had to move each one carefully before I could look inside.
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。
Finally, I found Socky and her three tiny kittens.
Socky was very pleased to see me and purred （发出呼噜声） as loudly as she could.
