Joseph Bologne, also known as the Chevalier de Saint-Georges, is perhaps the most famous musician and composer you've never heard of.
Bologne was born in 1745 on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, son of an enslaved (使成为奴隶) Senegalese woman and a white plantation owner. Bologne's father was eager for him to acquire a good education and he was sent to France to be schooled in literature and fencing. As well as showing great skill in sport, Bologne was intelligent and appealing.
As if being handsome, clever and a champion athlete wasn't enough, Bologne was also a seriously skilled musician and composer. His main instrument was the violin, and in 1761, he was made a member of the Royal Guards as a soldier and musician. It is around this time that he became known as the Chevalier de Saint-Georges in recognition of his skill as a fencer and horseman. He was then invited to join the incredibly distinguished Concert des Amateurs as the first violinist and became its leader in 1773.
Although things were going very well for Bologne, he still experienced apparent racism. Some of the opera s leading women campaigned against having what they called "a mixed-race person" in charge of the opera. Despite this attempt to undermine his career, he fell into favour with the influential playwright Madame de Montesson, who put him in charge of her private theatre and introduced him to her husband, the Duke of Orleans. When the French Revolution（革命）broke out in 1789, Bologne sided with the revolutionaries. However, he was later imprisoned for 18 months and ultimately died in 1799 due to a severe leg injury.
Shortly after Bolognes death, Napoleon reinstated slavery in the French colonies and also banned Bologne's music in an attempt to erase him from French history. However, Afro-Caribbean communities in France, and on Guadeloupe and Martinique have been working tirelessly to keep his legacy alive and Joseph Bologne is now enjoying a long overdue and richly deserved revival
24. What can we learn from paragraph 2 about Bologne
A. He was a man of determination.
B. He was passionate about literature.
C. He received great support from his father.
D. He had a difficult and troubled childhood.
25. What earned Bologne the name Chevalier de Saint-Georges
A. His military service.
B. His exceptional athletic abilities.
C. His noble birth.
D. His musical achievements.
26. What did the campaign of some women in the opera imply
A. Bologne faced significant discrimination.
B. Bologne's talents were a threat to the opera.
C. Bologne shouldn
I' t have joined the private theatre.
D. Bologne's leadership suffered from a lack of foresight.
27. What is happening to Bolognes music now
A. It's being recognized and celebrated.
B. It's receiving conflicting opinions.
C. It's leading to a revolution in music.
D. It's still being overlooked in France.

A dog's behavior is far more influenced by environment and upbringing, according to a new study published in the journal Science.
Lead author Kathleen Morrill, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, and her numerous co-researchers surveyed owners of 18,385 dogs and examined 2,155 dogs' DNA as part of the citizen science project Darwin s Ark.
For the project, participants were given a battery of surveys to fill out about their dogs. They then received a DNA kit to collect their dogs’ saliva (唾液）and send it back to the lab for DNA testing. The information was stored in a large database that was freely shared with researchers around the world. In return, curious dog owners were sent a DNA and breed (品种）profile of their dogs.
With the data provided to them by citizen scientists, Morrill and her team presented a number of interesting findings, but the biggest was this:"Breeds offer little predictive value for individuals, explaining just 9% of variation in behavior.
The researchers broke down dog behavior into eight categories: comfort level around humans, case of stimulation or excitement, affinity （喜爱）toward toys, biddability (also known as response to human training), how easily the dog is affected by a frightening stimulus, comfort level around other dogs, engagement with the environment, and desire to be close to humans. Of these behavioral characteristics, biddability and toy affinity were most linked with breeds, but the associations were slight.
The study’s findings call into question laws that target specific, supposedly " dangerous", breeds. More than 900 cities in the U.S. currently have some breed-specific laws.
"We now have demonstrated that breed-specific laws are ineffective at protecting the public or reducing dog attacks," Elinor Karlsson, a senior author of the study, said. " Any dog has the potential to be dangerous, regardless of its size or breed background. Because of this, dogs should not be declared dangerous based on their appearance. Instead, they should be assessed as individuals based on their behavior."
24. How did the researchers carry out the project
A. By using survey responses.
B. By interviewing dog owners face to face.
C. By analyzing the data offered by the university.
D. By comparing breed profiles of different dogs.
25. Which of the following is most related to breeds
A. Engagement with the environment. B. Response to human training.
C. Ease of stimulation or excitement. D. Comfort level around humans.
26. Which statement did Karlsson agree with
A. A dog's behavior is more individualistic.
B. Breed-specific laws should be carried out effectively.
C. Dog attacks have posed a deadly threat to humans.
D. Categorizing dogs should be based on their appearance.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Don't ignore your dogs B. Don't raise dangerous dogs
C. Don't judge a dog by its breed D. Don t evaluate a dog by its behavior
D
A narrow region of the eastern Pacific Ocean has been getting colder for the past 30 years, challenging global trends and confusing many scientists. Over at least three decades,the region has cooled by roughly halt a degree, which has been causing scientists to wonder how long that will hold.
The unusual phenomenon, known as the “cold tongue” is affecting a vast area of ocean west of South America. Scientists are not entirely certain what is keeping the “cold tongue” cool. Richard eager, from the Earth Observatory at Columbia University, said one factor appears to be trade winds in the equatorial (赤道) region, which carry warm water away from the surface,stimulating cooler water to rise. “The trade winds blow from east to west across the tropical Pacific Ocean,” Seager said. “As the waters are driven away from the surface, water flows up from below. And since the waters below the surface are cold, this creates the ‘cold tongue’.”
Yet despite the effect of these winds, the “cold tongue” has puzzled scientists, because advanced climate computer models suggest that the waters should have been warming for decades at a taster rate than the rest of the Pacific due to rising greenhouse gas emissions (排放).
Pedro DiNezio of the University of Colorado Boulder, considers “it the most important unanswered question in climate science”. Scientists can't predict when it will end or start warming since the cause is unknown. According to New Scientist, this has huge worldwide implications, including determining California's permanent drought and Australia's wildfires. More profoundly still, “it could even alter the extent of climate change globally”, the site said, “by understanding how sensitive Earth s atmosphere is to rising greenhouse gas production”.
Despite this, the overall ocean temperatures are rising. Solving the puzzle of the “cold tongue” isn't about proving climate models wrong. Rather, the “cold tongue” is the last big piece of the puzzle. Fit that in and we can build a more accurate picture of how life will change in a warming world---and how best to prepare for that future.
32. What may be the cause of the "cold tongue"
A. The arrival of ocean currents
B. Trade winds in the equatorial regions.
C. The change in the direction of water flow
D. The temperature differences between sea and land.
33. Why are scientists confused about the “cold tongue” phenomenon
A It has lasted for many years B. It forms a minor ocean ecosystem.
C. It contradicts the global warming trend D. It mirrors increasing carbon emissions
34. What makes solving the “cold tongue” puzzle important
A. It can help predict droughts in California
B It contributes to adjusting ocean temperatures
C. It can help improve the accuracy of climate models.
D. It offers insights into dealing with future climate events
35. What is the purpose of the text
A. To stress the effect of climate change.
B. To introduce an unusual phenomenon
C. To explain reasons for strange natural disasters.
D.To appeal to people to pav more attention to the ocean

It gives you moments with nature.
Like some other sports, surfing allows you to have time with nature. 40 With surfing, you're able to observe nature from a different viewpoint. This is an ideal time to be one with nature, so grab the chance to broaden your horizons （视野）as a part of this beautiful planet we live on.

Maisie and her car
Maisie usually goes swimming every morning before she goes to work. She leaves home at 5:30 am and drives to the swimming pool.She swims for an hour, and then hurries home for a shower and breakfast before she leaves for work at 8 am.
One Thursday morning, Maisie drove to the swimming pool as usual. She did not feel happy because she had a quarrel （争吵）on the phone with a co-worker the night before. She was still thinking about it and feeling so depressed that she did not want to go to work.
"Swimming may make me feel e on," Maisie said to herself. She parked the car opposite the sports center, took her sports bag from the back seat and walked to the building, forgetting to put on the handbrake (手刹).
While Maisie was swimming, a strong wind came and the car started to move. Very, very slowly the car moved out of the car park and across the road. It was early morning so the road was empty. There were no people walking around and no other cars on the road.
A few moments later, there was a sudden announcement on the loud speaker system."Is the owner of a white Honda, number plate XJY436, in the pool "
“XJY436! That's my car," thought Maisie. She swam to the side of the pool and climbed out. A lifeguard was standing next to the pool.Maisie ran up to him. "That's my car," she said. "Did I leave the lights On "No,”said the lifeguard, laughing. "Come and see.” Maisie followed the lifeguard out to the entrance of the sports center. "Look!" said the lifeguard when he pointed to the big entrance door. "Oh, no!" shouted Maisie. Her car was in the doorway. It was half inside the building and half outside. No one could go in or out of the sports center.
注意：1续写词数应为 150左右；
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
"Do you have your car key "asked the lifeguard.
