B
Just about 50 years ago, needing money to support my family — my novels weren’t best-sellers — I had the idea of taking the longest train trip imaginable and writing a travel book about it. The trip was improvisational (即兴的). I didn’t have a credit card. I had no idea where I’d be staying nor how long this trip would take. And I’d never written a travel book before. I hoped my trip wouldn’t suffer a lot, though it was obviously a leap in the dark.
I set off with one small bag containing clothes, a map of Asia, a travel guidebook and some travelers’ cheques. I was often inconvenienced, sometimes threatened, now and then disturbed for bribes (贿赂), occasionally laid up with food poisoning — all this vivid detail for my narrative (叙述).
What I repeated in the more than four-month trip was the pleasure of the sleeping car. Writing on board the Khyber Mail to Lahore in Pakistan, “The romance associated with the sleeping car comes from the fact that it is extremely private, combining the best features of a cupboard with forward movement. Whatever drama is being shown in this moving bedroom is heightened by the landscape passing the window...” A train is a carrier that allows residence.
I wrote The Great Railway Bazaar on my return in 1974, and it appeared to good reviews and quick sales. That’s the past. Nothing is the same. All travel is time-related. All such trips are unique and unrepeatable. It’s not just that the steam trains of Asia are gone, but much of the peace and order is gone. Who’d risk an Iranian train now or take a bus through Afghanistan
But I’ve been surprised by some of the more recent developments in travel. I rode on Chinese trains for a year and wrote Riding the Iron Rooster, but now China has much cleaner and swifter trains and modernized destinations. A traveler today could take the same trip I took in 1986-87 and produce a completely different book.
All travel books are dated. That’s their fault that they’re outdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve something of the past that would otherwise be lost.
24. What happened at the beginning of the author’s trip to Asia
A. He made full preparations for the trip.
B. He had expected the journey to be rough.
C. He organized the trip with his family’s support.
D. He started the trip out of his passion for traveling.
25. Why did the author repeatedly recall the sleeping car
A. For its long distance. B. For its full equipment.
C. For its reassuring privacy. D. For its romantic scenery.
26. What does the underlined sentence “Nothing is the same” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A He couldn’t write another bestseller. B. Train trip was no longer popular.
C. The landscape in Asia was gone. D. Transportation and travel had changed a lot.
27. What does the passage mainly focuses on
A. Reflecting on the evolving nature of rail travel. B. Recalling an unrepeatable journey to China.
C. Offering advice on preparing for a train trip. D. Demonstrating the features of travel books.
C
Almost all of us have a friend, who can eat anything and eat as much as an elephant yet never gain weight. So why can your friend get away with eating what he/she wants and not get fat
First and foremost, it has something to do with Genetics (基因学): high basal metabolic rate(BMR) (高基础代谢率). When we are resting, our body spends some energy for basic activities like breathing and pumping of the heart. So those with high BMR burn more calories at rest as compared to those who have low BMR. As a result, these individuals don’t put on weight despite eating large amounts of foods.
To show that it is true, scientists have experimented on laboratory mice. They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat. Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise. Scientists concluded that weight gain seems to be influenced by genetic factors. Armed with this knowledge, they believe it may be possible to develop medicines that can target (针对) the genes and stop people from gaining weight.
Other reasons such as bad eating and living habits as well as illnesses also contribute to weight gain. The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the number of people who are overweight continues to grow.
Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects. However it takes a long time to develop and test new drugs. Therefore, despite this breakthrough in the study of weight loss drugs, scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy , balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise. This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight, but also help them stay healthy and energetic.
28. Why does the author ask a question in Paragraph 1
A. To stress his doubts. B. To compare different results.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To express his unhappiness.
29. What might be the key reason for getting fat
A. Bad living habits. B. Genetic factors.
C. Bad eating habits. D. Serious illnesses.
30. What did the scientists do with the mice during their experiment
A. They gave them the same experimental conditions.
B. They fed them on a special diet with only fat.
C. They studied the genetic structure of their bodies.
D. They divided them into two groups at the beginning.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Current Weight-loss Medicines Have Bad Effects B. Controlling Weight Gain Is Hard but Possible
C. Knowing Your BMR Helps Lose More Weight D. Genes Play a Role in Deciding Your Weight
D
Have you ever been in mid-conversation with someone when you look over and find them standing in the same position as you or holding the same facial expression It may seem like they have consciously copied you, but it is much more likely that it is the chameleon (变色龙) effect at play.
The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation of another person’s gestures or behavior. Just as a chameleon attempts to match any environment’s colors, people acquire the behavior of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth.
The chameleon effect was confirmed in an experiment by psychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand in 1999. The part of their experiment included 78 people, who each spoke with an experimenter. During the test, Bargh and Chartrand studied whether participants would copy the actions of someone they hadn’t met before, like moving the foot and touching the face. The second part measured the impact that copying someone has on the person being imitated.
In the first stage, participants increased their face touching by 20% and their foot movement by 50% while in conversation about a photograph with the experimenter. The individuals weren’t aware of what they were being studied for, and the photograph was used to catch their attention to insure unconscious acts. The second stage involved half of the participants being copied, and then rating the likability of the experimenter. The results, showed that those who were imitated scored the experimenter higher. It has shown that when someone copies our behavior, we develop more positive feelings about them. These interactions could be a person unconsciously willing to be liked, and forming a moment of connection.
The main reasons behind humans’ imitation are positive. However, when people carry this chameleon effect to the extreme, they can lose their sense of self. Those who change their entire personalities in different groups often go undetected. But more common signs of the chameleon effect are easier to notice. Next time you are in a social gathering, take a look around and you might just see some chameleons for yourself.
32. Why do people imitate others’ behavior
A. To show admiration for others. B. To adapt to the surroundings.
C. To establish a connection with others. D. To attract others’ attention.
33. How did the experimenter guarantee participants’ unconscious behaviors
A. By directing their attention to a photo. B. By keeping an eye on their actions.
C. By telling them the purpose of the study. D. By evaluating the impacts of imitation.
34. What conclusion can be drawn from the experiment
A. People tend to like those who imitate their behavior.
B. Too much of the chameleon effect can be beneficial.
C. People imitating others are not easy to be detected.
D. The copied movements help people to feel relaxed.
35. Which of the following shows the chameleon effect according to the passage
A. Students adopt teachers’ accents for fun after class.
B. People change their habits to please others on purpose.
C. A comedian copies a celebrity vividly on stage.
D. A husband and his wife share similar behaviors over time.

W: Not really. I think I’ll enjoy myself. There’s so much to do there. I expect I won’t miss the countryside much and I can always come back and visit it.

【解析】
【原文】The National Park we will visit is located in the desert just north of our city. Like any hike of this nature, you should be prepared for the adventure in the desert: First, hike with a partner for safety. I enjoy hiking with family members and close friends. Second, carry a cell phone with you. However, keep in mind that you might not get any signal in some places, so don't depend on it. Third, be sure to have the right clothing and shoes or boots for the hike. Light, breathable clothing is the best during the summer, along with the hat and strong hiking shoes. Forth, carry plenty of water. Having a few snacks can give you energy, too. Fifth, take a small first-aid box with you, particularly on longer hikes, in case you get injured. Sixth, pack a detailed map of the area you’re hiking, along with a compass or a GPS to locate your position. And finally, take nothing home with you except pictures and memories. You can protect these areas by leaving all rocks, flowers, and other objects for future visitors.

Just about 50 years ago, needing money to support my family — my novels weren’t best-sellers — I had the idea of taking the longest train trip imaginable and writing a travel book about it. The trip was improvisational (即兴的). I didn’t have a credit card. I had no idea where I’d be staying nor how long this trip would take. And I’d never written a travel book before. I hoped my trip wouldn’t suffer a lot, though it was obviously a leap in the dark.
I set off with one small bag containing clothes, a map of Asia, a travel guidebook and some travelers’ cheques. I was often inconvenienced, sometimes threatened, now and then disturbed for bribes (贿赂), occasionally laid up with food poisoning — all this vivid detail for my narrative (叙述).
What I repeated in the more than four-month trip was the pleasure of the sleeping car. Writing on board the Khyber Mail to Lahore in Pakistan, “The romance associated with the sleeping car comes from the fact that it is extremely private, combining the best features of a cupboard with forward movement. Whatever drama is being shown in this moving bedroom is heightened by the landscape passing the window...” A train is a carrier that allows residence.
I wrote The Great Railway Bazaar on my return in 1974, and it appeared to good reviews and quick sales. That’s the past. Nothing is the same. All travel is time-related. All such trips are unique and unrepeatable. It’s not just that the steam trains of Asia are gone, but much of the peace and order is gone. Who’d risk an Iranian train now or take a bus through Afghanistan
But I’ve been surprised by some of the more recent developments in travel. I rode on Chinese trains for a year and wrote Riding the Iron Rooster, but now China has much cleaner and swifter trains and modernized destinations. A traveler today could take the same trip I took in 1986-87 and produce a completely different book.
All travel books are dated. That’s their fault that they’re outdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve something of the past that would otherwise be lost.
24. What happened at the beginning of the author’s trip to Asia
A. He made full preparations for the trip.
B. He had expected the journey to be rough.
C. He organized the trip with his family’s support.
D. He started the trip out of his passion for traveling.
25. Why did the author repeatedly recall the sleeping car
A. For its long distance. B. For its full equipment.
C. For its reassuring privacy. D. For its romantic scenery.
26. What does the underlined sentence “Nothing is the same” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. He couldn’t write another bestseller. B. Train trip was no longer popular.
C. The landscape in Asia was gone. D. Transportation and travel had changed a lot.
27. What does the passage mainly focuses on
A. Reflecting on the evolving nature of rail travel. B. Recalling an unrepeatable journey to China.
C. Offering advice on preparing for a train trip. D. Demonstrating the features of travel books.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本篇是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要讲述了作者早年坐火车旅行并写旅行书籍的事迹，引发了作者对时代变迁和旅行的思考。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“I didn’t have a credit card. I had no idea where I’d be staying nor how long this trip would take. And I’d never written a travel book before. I hoped my trip wouldn’t suffer a lot, though it was obviously a leap in the dark.(我没有信用卡。我不知道我会住在哪里，也不知道这次旅行要花多长时间。我以前从未写过一本旅游书籍。我希望我的旅行不要太痛苦，尽管这显然是一次冒险。)”可知，作者并未对这个旅行做好充分的规划和打算，且准备不足，因此他期望旅途不要遭受太多苦难，由此推知，他预料到旅途的辛苦。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The romance associated with the sleeping car comes from the fact that it is extremely private, combining the best features of a cupboard with forward movement.(与卧铺车相关的浪漫之处在于它非常私人化，将橱柜的最佳功能与向前运动相结合。)”可知，作者认为卧铺车厢私密性好，这是作者一再提及卧铺车厢的原因。故选C项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。该句前文“That’s the past.(那是过去的事了。)”讲到上面所讲述的有关火车的美好经历都已经是过去的事了，而该句后文内容“All travel is time-related. All such trips are unique and unrepeatable. It’s not just that the steam trains of Asia are gone, but much of the peace and order is gone. (所有的旅行都与时间有关。所有这些旅行都是独一无二的，不可重复的。不仅是亚洲的蒸汽火车消失了，而且大部分的和平与秩序也消失了。)”则讲到随着时间和社会的发展，旅行以及旅行方式也随之发生了变化，交通工具不一样了，和平秩序也消失了。由此可知，作者想通过“Nothing is the same”这句话表达“交通方式和旅行本身都随着时间（社会）的发展而变化了很多”这一含义。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容“All travel books are dated. That’s their fault that they’re outdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve something of the past that would otherwise be lost.(所有的旅行书籍都注明了日期。这是它们的错，它们已经过时了，它们的美德是它们保留了一些原本会丢失的过去。)”以及上文可知，文章主要讲述了作者早年坐火车旅行并写旅行书籍的事迹，引发了作者对时代变迁和旅行的思考。换句话说，作者在本文章中深思铁路旅行的演变性质。故选A项。
C
Almost all of us have a friend, who can eat anything and eat as much as an elephant yet never gain weight. So why can your friend get away with eating what he/she wants and not get fat
First and foremost, it has something to do with Genetics (基因学): high basal metabolic rate(BMR) (高基础代谢率). When we are resting, our body spends some energy for basic activities like breathing and pumping of the heart. So those with high BMR burn more calories at rest as compared to those who have low BMR. As a result, these individuals don’t put on weight despite eating large amounts of foods.
To show that it is true, scientists have experimented on laboratory mice. They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat. Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise. Scientists concluded that weight gain seems to be influenced by genetic factors. Armed with this knowledge, they believe it may be possible to develop medicines that can target (针对) the genes and stop people from gaining weight.
Other reasons such as bad eating and living habits as well as illnesses also contribute to weight gain. The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the number of people who are overweight continues to grow.
Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects. However, it takes a long time to develop and test new drugs. Therefore, despite this breakthrough in the study of weight loss drugs, scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy , balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise. This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight, but also help them stay healthy and energetic.
28. Why does the author ask a question in Paragraph 1
A. To stress his doubts. B. To compare different results.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To express his unhappiness.
29. What might be the key reason for getting fat
A. Bad living habits. B. Genetic factors.
C. Bad eating habits. D. Serious illnesses.
30. What did the scientists do with the mice during their experiment
A. They gave them the same experimental conditions.
B. They fed them on a special diet with only fat.
C. They studied the genetic structure of their bodies.
D. They divided them into two groups at the beginning.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Current Weight-loss Medicines Have Bad Effects B. Controlling Weight Gain Is Hard but Possible
C. Knowing Your BMR Helps Lose More Weight D. Genes Play a Role in Deciding Your Weight
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了发胖的原因与遗传有关，科学家通过实验证明了这一点。其他原因，如不良的饮食和生活习惯以及疾病也会导致体重增加。随着超重人数的不断增加，对体重增加的研究变得越来越重要。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Almost all of us have a friend, who can eat anything and eat as much as an elephant yet never gain weight. So why can your friend get away with eating what he/she wants and not get fat (几乎我们所有人都有一个朋友，他可以吃任何东西，吃得和大象一样多，但从不发胖。那么，为什么你的朋友可以吃他/她想吃的东西而不发胖呢？)”可推知，作者在第一段问了一个问题是为了引入话题。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“First and foremost, it has something to do with Genetics(基因学): high basal metabolic rate(BMR)(高基础代谢率).(首先，这与遗传学有关：高基础代谢率（BMR）)”可知，发胖的主要原因是遗传因素。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise.(尽管两组老鼠吃的食物和运动量相同，但一些老鼠体重增加，而另一些老鼠保持苗条)”可知，在实验中，科学家们给了老鼠们相同的实验条件。故选A。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“First and foremost, it has something to do with Genetics(基因学): high basal metabolic rate(BMR)(高基础代谢率). When we are resting, our body spends some energy for basic activities like breathing and pumping of the heart. So those with high BMR burn more calories at rest as compared to those who have low BMR. As a result, these individuals don’t put on weight despite eating large amounts of foods.(首先，这与遗传学有关：高基础代谢率（BMR）。当我们休息时，我们的身体会为一些基本活动消耗一些能量，比如呼吸和心脏跳动。所以那些BMR高的人在休息时比那些BMR低的人消耗更多的卡路里。因此，尽管这些人吃了大量的食物，但他们的体重并没有增加)”结合文章主要说明了发胖的原因与遗传有关，科学家通过实验证明了这一点。其他原因，如不良的饮食和生活习惯以及疾病也会导致体重增加。随着超重人数的不断增加，对体重增加的研究变得越来越重要。可知，D选项“基因决定你的体重”最符合文章标题。故选D。
D
Have you ever been in mid-conversation with someone, when you look over and find them standing in the same position as you or holding the same facial expression It may seem like they have consciously copied you, but it is much more likely that it is the chameleon (变色龙) effect at play.
The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation of another person’s gestures or behavior. Just as a chameleon attempts to match any environment’s colors, people acquire the behavior of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth.
The chameleon effect was confirmed in an experiment by psychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand in 1999. The part of their experiment included 78 people, who each spoke with an experimenter. During the test, Bargh and Chartrand studied whether participants would copy the actions of someone they hadn’t met before, like moving the foot and touching the face. The second part measured the impact that copying someone has on the person being imitated.
In the first stage, participants increased their face touching by 20% and their foot movement by 50% while in conversation about a photograph with the experimenter. The individuals weren’t aware of what they were being studied for, and the photograph was used to catch their attention to insure unconscious acts. The second stage involved half of the participants being copied, and then rating the likability of the experimenter. The results, showed that those who were imitated scored the experimenter higher. It has shown that when someone copies our behavior, we develop more positive feelings about them. These interactions could be a person unconsciously willing to be liked, and forming a moment of connection.
The main reasons behind humans’ imitation are positive. However, when people carry this chameleon effect to the extreme, they can lose their sense of self. Those who change their entire personalities in different groups often go undetected. But more common signs of the chameleon effect are easier to notice. Next time you are in a social gathering, take a look around and you might just see some chameleons for yourself.
32. Why do people imitate others’ behavior
A. To show admiration for others. B. To adapt to the surroundings.
C. To establish a connection with others. D. To attract others’ attention.
33. How did the experimenter guarantee participants’ unconscious behaviors
A. By directing their attention to a photo. B. By keeping an eye on their actions.
C. By telling them the purpose of the study. D. By evaluating the impacts of imitation.
34. What conclusion can be drawn from the experiment
A. People tend to like those who imitate their behavior.
B. Too much of the chameleon effect can be beneficial.
C. People imitating others are not easy to be detected.
D. The copied movements help people to feel relaxed.
35. Which of the following shows the chameleon effect according to the passage
A. Students adopt teachers’ accents for fun after class.
B. People change their habits to please others on purpose.
C. A comedian copies a celebrity vividly on stage.
D. A husband and his wife share similar behaviors over time.
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于变色龙效应的研究，告诉我们人们通过习得他人的行为来拉近彼此之间的距离，顺畅互动。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation of another person’s gestures or behavior. Just as a chameleon attempts to match any environment’s colors, people acquire the behavior of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth.(变色龙效应是指无意识地模仿他人的手势或行为。就像变色龙试图匹配任何环境的颜色一样，人们获得他人的行为，使他们更紧密地联系在一起，使他们的互动更顺畅)”可知，他们通过模仿他人的行为来让他们的距离变得更近。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In the first stage, participants increased their face touching by 20% and their foot movement by 50% while in conversation about a photograph with the experimenter. The individuals weren’t aware of what they were being studied for, and the photograph was used to catch their attention to insure unconscious acts.(在第一阶段，参与者在与实验人员谈论一张照片时，触摸脸部的次数增加了20%，移动脚的次数增加了50%。这些人并没有意识到他们被研究的目的，这张照片被用来吸引他们的注意力，以确保无意识的行为)”可知，调查者使用了一张照片, 以吸引他们的注意力，并确保他们的无意识行为。故选A项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The results, showed that those who were imitated scored the experimenter higher. It has shown that when someone copies our behavior, we develop more positive feelings about them. These interactions could be a person unconsciously willing to be liked, and forming a moment of connection.(结果显示，那些被模仿的人给实验者的分数更高。研究表明，当有人模仿我们的行为时，我们会对他们产生更积极的感觉。这些互动可能是一个人无意识地想要被喜欢，并形成一个联系的时刻)”可知，我们对模仿我们行为的人会产生积极的情绪，所以人们会喜欢那些模仿自己行为的人。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation of another person’s gestures or behavior. Just as a chameleon attempts to match any environment’s colors, people acquire the behavior of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth.(变色龙效应是指无意识地模仿他人的手势或行为。就像变色龙试图匹配任何环境的颜色一样，人们获得他人的行为，使他们更紧密地联系在一起，使他们的互动更顺畅)”可知，变色龙效应是指人们不自觉地模仿他人的姿态或行为，而丈夫和妻子随着时间的推移共同拥有相似的行为，是典型的变色龙效应的例子。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了贵州省的草根联赛的历史、特点和具体细节等。
【76题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：位于贵州省的乡村篮球协会，更广为人知的名字是“CunBA”，“Cun”在中文里是“村庄”的意思。句中is是谓语，空格处用非谓语动词，The Village Basketball Association和base之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动。故填based。
【77题详解】
考查冠词。句意：这个草根联赛成立于2016年，但最近吸引了全国新一代篮球迷。generation是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，whole是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a。故填a。
【78题详解】
考查介词。句意：业余篮球球运动员代表他们的村庄参加比赛，不是为了现金奖励；相反，获胜的队伍会带着活鸭、大米和传统苗族风格的银头饰回家。由cash prizes可知，此处表示“业余篮球球运动员代表他们的村庄参加比赛，不是为了现金奖励”，compete for意为“为争夺某物而竞争”，因此空格处是介词for。故填for。
【79题详解】
考查名词。句意：Cun BA在观众中激起了一种特殊的情感和兴奋。空格处用名词作宾语，excite的名词是excitement，意为“兴奋”，是不可数名词，故填excitement。
【80题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：然而，前来观看今年最后一场比赛的2万名观众中，没有人需要为门票付费，我们欢迎他们以创造性的方式欣赏比赛。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词spectators是人，因此空格处用关系代词who/that。故填who/that。
【81题详解】
考查不定式。句意：然而，前来观看今年最后一场比赛的2万名观众中，没有人需要为门票付费，我们欢迎他们以创造性的方式欣赏比赛。sb. be welcome to do sth.意为“欢迎某人做某事”。故填to enjoy。
【82题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：据新华社报道，这项运动在该地区有着悠久的历史，可以追溯到20世纪30年代。句中谓语是has，空格处用非谓语动词，region和date之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动。故填dating。
【83题详解】
考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：一年一度的运动会在中国农历五月的苗族丰收节期间举行。句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，运动会是被举行，因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态，主语games是复数，因此空格处是are held。故填are held。
【84题详解】
考查序数词。句意：一年一度的运动会在中国农历五月的苗族丰收节期间举行。句子表示“一年一度的运动会在中国农历五月的苗族丰收节期间举行”，空格处意为“第五”，用序数词fifth。故填fifth。
【85题详解】

【答案】A Week In the Wild
Last week, I, together with 30 other students, went to Yunan and took part in the Wildlife Protection winter camp held by WWF.
We spent one week in the wild rainforests learning about endangered animals from wildlife professionals. We observed how different species of monkeys adapted themselves to their natural habitats. Plus, various activities to help protect them have been organized, such as picking up plastics, removing nets and traps and putting up posters. We were amazed by the tireless efforts that the locals were making.
