Zebby beat thousands of others and claimed the title of National Cat of the Year, an award given by Cats Protection, a charity that rescues and rehomes cats. To win the award, Zebby first won the Family Fur-ever category, which honors cats that "make a family complete".
Zebby's owner, 66-year-old Genevieve Moss, lives alone in the UK, aside from her furry friend, of course. Living alone can be troublesome and her problems were further worsened by the fact that she can't hear anything without her hearing aid. Once, she was robbed in the middle of the night. "I used to be scared to go to sleep, and I used to sort of lie awake. But now, with Zebby, I can rest easily, "said Moss.
Zebby warns her of different sounds in their home. He also fetches the mail for Moss and drops it into the bedroom. He even takes her slippers (拖鞋) to her. "He seems to know that when the phone rings, he needs to tell me. At nighttime, if my security light goes on, he will wake me up by hitting my face gently. Sometimes to protect me, Zebby takes up his position at the front door to tell me it's not happening when I try to leave the house", Moss said.
"I am so proud of Zebby for showing the world how caring cats can be, and what a positive effect they can have on people's lives, "she said. "I can't imagine life without Zebby and I’m over the moon about his being honored with the National Cat Awards."
Cats Protection's National Cat Awards organizer Ashley Fryer said, "From the moment we read his entry form, we knew Zebby was something special. He is clearly devoted to Moss and their story highlights the powerful bond that exists between people and their cats. He shows a shining example of the joy and comfort a cat can bring."
24．What can we infer about Zebby
A.He was once a homeless cat. B.He helped prevent a robbery.
C.He is highly sensitive to sounds. D.He gives Moss a feeling of security.
25．To Moss, which role does Zebby fail to play
A.A cleaner. B.A watchman. C.A companion. D.A postman.
26．How does Moss feel about Zebby's earning National Cat of the Year
A.Inspired. B.Astonished. C.Moved. D.Excited.
27．Which can be the best title of the text
A.Amazing Cat Making a Family Complete
B.Award-winning Cat Listening for His Owner
C.National Title Awarded to a Rehomed Cat
D.Special Bond Formed Between Cat and Human
If you haven't thought about tinned fish like anchovies and sardines, you're missing out on an affordable nutritious powerhouse since they're one of the healthiest snacks around, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, calcium (钙) and vitamin A. And how many other superfoods come in tins pretty enough to gift
Sardines ever appealed to almost everyone, "from salt-of-the-earth workers to the ones out of the top drawer", says Ari Weinzweig, co-founder of a food store in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which supplies more than 70 types of tinned fish. Weinzweig notes their presence in various food traditions. "Sardines were a main dish of the coastal Native American diet long before Europeans arrived. There were many stories of poor families sitting down to a Friday meal of nothing but tinned sardines and hard-boiled eggs and in Michigan, sardines were a main dish for ironworkers who built the Mackinac Bridge in the 1950s to eat for lunch, " he says.
Irresistibly, little fish's depth of flavor can make many dishes palatable. A small quantity of anchovies in sauces (酱) brings "a burst of flavor", says Chris McDade, chef and author of The Magic of Tinned Fish, calling anchovies "a chef's secret". Indeed, many people don't realize that anchovies add taste to some sauces. Besides, tinned fish are fantastic with salads and fresh vegetables.
Little fish are a sustainable option, McDade adds, because they are lower on the food chain. "Everyone loves big fish, but we also have to eat the small stuff. It's the only way to keep the balance going." And with so many nutrients and so little mercury(汞), tinned little fish are a good way to keep your internal nutritional balance going.
28．Why does the author raise the question in paragraph 1
A.To voice his doubt. B.To draw attention to healthy food.
C.To lead in the topic of superfoods. D.To stress his affection for tinned fish.
29．How does the author show people's love for sardines
A.By giving examples. B.By listing figures.
C.By telling stories. D.By explaining causes.
30．What does the underlined word "palatable" in paragraph 3 mean
A.Long-lasting. B.Bitter-sweet. C.Mouth-watering. D.Well-known.
31．What does McDade mainly say about fish in the last paragraph
A.Eating fish is good for health. B.Small fish can be a profitable choice.
C.Big fish are more sought-after. D.People should consume more tinned food.
A new study may renew people's knowledge about the existence of water on Mars. The research is based on data collected by China's Mars rover (探测器) Zhurong. The rover arrived on the planet in 2021. Evidence of surface water was found in warmer areas of Mars that might have been rich enough to support conditions for life, said the researchers from the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Today, Mars has a cold, desert climate. But past studies have provided evidence that ancient Mars had large amounts of water, believed to have rivers, lakes and oceans included. A 2015 study by the American space agency NASA suggested that 4.3 billion years ago Mars likely had an ocean covering nearly half of the planet's northern part.
There are different theories about what caused large amounts of water to disappear from Mars. The most likely explanation is that the liquid escaped when the thickness of the planet's atmosphere decreased over time, NASA explains. The space agency estimates the escape happened about 3 billion years ago. In the new study, researchers said the Chinese rover observed salt-rich sand dunes (沙丘) on the surface, containing breaks and small hills and that these landforms provided evidence that land had frozen and then melted (融化) in the areas studied. The melting could have happened a few hundred thousand years ago.
The rover's observations were made in an area called Utopia Planitia in Mars's northern part. The researchers said they believed the sand dunes were likely formed sometime from 1.4 million to 400,000 years ago, possibly even more "recently". Conditions during that period were likely similar to those on Mars today.
Studying the structure and chemical makeup of these sand dunes can provide insights into "the possibility of water activity" during that period. Mary Bourke, an expert in Mars geology at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland, said that although the evidence provided by the rover suggests small amounts of water, it could still be important in identifying environments that could support life.
32．Why is the 2015 study mentioned
A.To stress waters on Mars were diverse.
B.To prove Mars had abundant water.
C.To show NASA's attempts at exploring Mars.
D.To explain causes of climate change on Mars.
33．What most likely caused water on Mars to disappear according to NASA
A.The thinning of the air. B.The extinction of life.
C.The warming of Mars. D.The desertification of the land.
34．What's Mary Bourke's attitude towards the rover's observations
A.Doubtful. B.Concerned. C.Objective. D.Favourable.
35．Which can be the best title of the text
A.Secrets of Water on Mars Revealed
B.China's Hunting for Life on Mars
C.Signs of “Recent” Water Found on Mars
D.Mars's Potential for Supporting Life
三、七选五
36． Brief and pleasant small talk can promote learning, expand your horizons, and contribute to a sense of belonging. ①_____ We asked experts to share their favorite strategies for getting better at small talk.
Take advantage of "free information".
Find help from your surroundings, says Debra Fine, an expert on communication skills. If you're standing next to someone at a baby shower, for example, the fact that you're both there is what she calls "free information"—so ask the person how they know the mum-to-be. ②_____
Skip sensitive questions.
Get rid of controversial topics and potentially sensitive matters (such as religion, relationship status, kids and work). ③_____ You might ask a high school senior to fill you in on their college search, for example, rather than inquiring if they will get into a famous college.
Respond generously.
Think of conversation as a game—and aim to be an active player, which requires investing energy in it. If someone asks how you are and you simply respond "Good", you're being a "lazy conversationalist". ④_____ That gives the person you're talking to plenty to work with if they'd like to continue to chat.
⑤_____
Some conversations may drag on because people can't figure out how to end them. Consider introducing the person to someone else, suggests Diane Windingland, and leaving time for them to know each other. Besides, Windingland recommends concluding like this: "Please excuse me, I have to talk to so-and-so."
A. Exit the chat gracefully.
B. Don't spend too long on meaningless topics.
C. You can maximize these benefits by mastering some techniques.
D. Rather than a single-word response, offer a full sentence in return.
E. Your shared reality is a terrific entry point for deeper conversation.
F. Instead, questions like “What keeps you busy outside of work " are suggested.
G. One key to changing that is to first accept that these casual chats are impossible to avoid.

World Wetlands Day, celebrating annually on 2 February, aims to increase aware and understanding of the importance of wetlands to humans and the globe. It also spreads information about what valuable wetlands are and encourages individuals and governments to take actions to prevent their loss. The day was first organized by a group of environmentalist who wanted to celebrate and protect wetlands.
Wetlands are ecosystems which water is the primary factor controlling the environment and the associated plant and animal life. Wetlands are disappearing at a rate three times fast than forests, making them the Earth's most threatened ecosystems. Human activities, such as agriculture development, urbanization, pollution, overfishing and climate change, have contributed the loss of wetlands.
Actions needed to save the world's wetlands from disappearing and restore those we have already lost. That's because of wetlands provide critical habitats for a vast variety of wildlife, offering valuable opportunities for outdoor recreation, and play a crucial role in flood control.

14．答案：C
15．答案：B
16．答案：C
17．答案：C
解析：
Now many of us write a list of things we'd like to do before we die. Such a list, often called a bucket list, is unlimited. You can write a few or many things on it as you like.
Bucket lists can be exciting and help us plan our life and give us focus. They also help make us less worried. When reporter Helen knew she was suffering from cancer, she took comfort in drawing up a bucket list. She called it her list for living because these were things for making the most of life. Sadly, she was not able to do all of her 50 things before she died at the age of 45.
It's probably true that a list can encourage people to follow someone else's idea of the perfect life. And also, following a fixed list of goals makes us more careful. But why not at least dream of what we would like to do？Whether we want to plan it or just see what happens, we don't know what tomorrow will bring to us, so maybe we should live for today.
18．答案：A

22．答案：A
解析：根据The Writers' Museum 部分中的"The museum is home to numerous paintings, books and manuscripts(手稿）" (paintings属于绘画艺术,books和 manuscripts属于文学艺术）和National Museum of Scotland部分中的"The natural world, science and technology, discoveries, art, and world cultures are all explored"可知，这两个博物馆内都有艺术元素或者艺术 氛围。故选A。
23．答案：B
解析：根据题干中的关键词"Our Dynamic Earth"可将解题信息定位至Our Dynamic Earth 部分。根据其中的"It celebrates the beauty of the earth via technology... the 'tour' around the eleven Earthscapes"可知,在此博 物馆参观者可以体验虚拟旅行，畅游世界。
24．答案：D
解析：根据第二段中的"I used to be scared to go to sleep, and I used to sort of lie awake. But now, with Zebby, I can rest easily"可知, Moss过去很害怕睡觉，但有了Zebby之 后，她能很轻松地休息了。由此可以推 知，Zebby给予了Moss安全感。
25．答案：A
解析：根据第二段内容可知，Moss独自生活，后来 有了Zebby的陪伴，即Zebby 是Moss的伙伴 (companion);根据第三段中的"He also fetches the mail for Moss"可知，Zebby会为Moss取来邮件，是她的邮递 员（postman)；根据第三段中的"At nighttime, if my security light goes on, he will wake me up... the house" 可知，晚上，Zebby会在家里的智控安全灯亮起时提醒 Moss，有时为了保护她不让她出去，是她的保安员 (watchman)。文章并未提及Zebby是清洁工(cleaner) 的内容。故选A项。
26．答案：D
解析：根据倒数第二段中的"I can't imagine life without Zebby and I'm over the moon about his being honored with the National Cat Awards"可知,Moss无法想象没有Zebby的生活，并且Moss因为Zebby被授予年度国家猫咪奖而欣喜若狂。故选D 项。over the moon 表示“欣喜若狂，极为高兴”。

28．答案：D
解析：第一段提到像凤尾鱼和沙丁鱼这样的罐头鱼营养丰富，是最健康的零食之一。它们富含omega-3脂肪酸、蛋白质、钙和维生素A。下文提到了沙丁鱼对几乎所有人都有吸引力和小鱼可以为很多食物增味。 由此可知，第一段提出问题(还有多少其他的超级食物能做成漂亮到可以送人的罐头食品呢 )主要是为了强调作者对罐头鱼的喜爱。
29．答案：A
解析：根据第二段可知，沙丁鱼对几乎所有人都有吸引力，从普通工人到社会精英。它们存在于各种食物传统中。早在欧洲人到来之前，沙丁鱼就已经是沿海美洲原住民的主菜了。有很多故事都讲述过贫穷的家庭周五坐在一起聚餐，他们的饭只有沙丁鱼罐头和煮熟的鸡蛋。在密歇根，沙丁鱼是20世纪50年代建造麦基诺大桥的钢铁工人午餐的主菜。由此可知，作者通过列举一些事例来说明人们对沙丁鱼的喜爱。故选A项。
30．答案：C
解析：画线词下文提到厨师兼《罐头鱼的魔力》一书的作者Chris McDade说，在酱汁中加入少量凤尾鱼会带来“味道的爆发”，他把凤尾鱼称为“厨师的秘密”。 事实上，很多人都没有意识到凤尾鱼能给一些酱汁增添味道。此外，罐头鱼搭配沙拉和新鲜蔬菜非常美味。 由此可知，添加小鱼可以使食物变得美味。画线词应意为“可口的，美味的”，mouth-watering“非常可口的”与之意思相近。故选C项。
31．答案：B
解析：根据最后一段中的"we also have to eat the small stuff. It's the only way to keep the balance going" "with so many nutrients and so little mercury(汞), tinned little fish are a good way to keep your internal nutritional balance going"可知，McDade认为小鱼处于食物链的较低层。每个人都喜欢大鱼但我们也必须吃小鱼。这是保持平衡的唯一方法。此外，罐头鱼富含营养且含有极少的汞，吃罐头鱼是保持体内营养平衡的好方法。 由此可知，吃小鱼是有益的选择。
32．答案：B
解析：根据第二段中的“past studies have provided evidence that ancient Mars had large amounts of water”可知，过去的研究表明以前火星上有大量的水。接着，作者以美国国家航空航天局2015年的一项研究为例作进一步的说明，该研究表明43亿年前火星上可能有一个海洋，该海洋覆盖了火星北半部分近一半的区域。由此可推知，作者提及2015年的研究是为了说明火星上曾有大量的水。
33．答案：A
解析：根据第三段中的“The most likely explanation is that the liquid escaped when the thickness of the planet's atmosphere decreased over time, NASA explains”可知, 美国国家航空航天局认为，最有可能的解释是，随着时间的推移，当火星的大气层浓度降低时，液体“逃跑”了。由此可知， 美国国家航空航天局认为火星上水的消失最有可能是空气变得稀薄导致的。
34．答案：D
解析：根据题干中的“Mary Bourke”可将解题信息 定位至最后一段。根据最后一段中的“although the evidence provided by the rover suggests small amounts of water, it could still be important in identifying environments that could support life”可知,Mary Bourke认为，尽管探测器提供的证据表明火星上存在少量的水， 但这对确定可能支持生命的环境仍然很重要。由此可知，她是持肯定态度的。
35．答案：C
解析：通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了中国祝融 号探测器在火星上的新发现，即火星上存在水的时间 可能比过去的证据显示的要晚得多。故C项最适合作 本文标题。
36．答案：CEFDA

②空前主要提到如果你在迎婴派对上站在某人旁边，你们都在场的事实就是她所说的“免费信息”，要学会利用这种信息开展闲聊。因此空处应和利用两人的共同点开展闲聊有关，E项符合语境。E项承接上文内容，与本段主旨相呼应。E项中的“Your shared reality”和上文中提到的“the fact that you're both there”相呼应。 后半部分中的“for deeper conversation”也与进一步开展闲聊相关。

3.考查连接词。句意:它还传播有关湿地价值的信息，并鼓励个人和政府采取行动防止湿地流失。 分析句子结构，这是一个包含宾语从句的复合句， 因连接词在从句中作状语修饰形容词valuable，需使 用副词how，故将what改为how。
4.考查名词。句意:这一天首先是由一群想要庆 祝和保护湿地的环保主义者组织的。分析句子结构 可知，environmentalist在句子中作宾语，根据该词 前面的"a group of(一群)"可知该词应使用复数形式，故将environmentalist改为environmentalists。
