Standing at the finish line, 70-year-old Bob Long spent a while reflecting on the achievement he'd just made. Behind him was the wild, endless Mongolian grassland extending into the distance. This American had just become the oldest person to ever complete and win the Mongol Derby, the world's longest horse race.
Long, a rider all his life, entered the race after being inspired by All the Wild Horses, a movie based on the grueling event.
Fearing that he wouldn't be able to complete it, he set about preparing his mind and body for this "hardest, toughest, most demanding thing you can do on a horse", an annual 1000-kilometer race that was recognized as the world's longest horse race by The Guinness Book of Records in 2011. He confirmed his belief that preparation can surpass youth, as some of the other riders were less prepared.
Although Long had been riding horses for many years, the hardship and uncertainty of the task pushed him to his limit and forced him to depend entirely on his own will. The race organizers had provided an extensive support network to keep an eye on the participants from afar. Despite that, the physical strain of riding such a long distance made simple things like squatting（蹲） down at the end of the day almost impossible.
Along the vast race course there were unpredictable circumstances beyond Long's control, however well prepared he'd been. Weather was one of them, which could switch from heavy rain to burning unexpectedly.
Above all else, the biggest obstacle was the state of mind. Without a living soul in sight, Long was desperate for interaction, guidance, and comfort. This feeling of loneliness accounted for his hope that one of his fellow competitors would catch up.
Regardless of the hardship, Long felt a sort of spiritual adventure while traveling through the wilderness. He was provided with some memorable moments while connecting with nature. He also grew to love the country and the communities along the route.
Still holding the passion for riding. Long never dismisses the idea of competing in another Mongol Derby.
41. What distinguished Bob Long from other competitors in the Mongol. Derby
A. He rode the whole race course alone.
B. He completed the toughest part of the course.
C. He was the oldest participant of the horse race.
D. He was most likely to enter the competition again.
42. What does the underlined word“grueling”in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Tough but rewarding.
B. Difficult and exhausting.
C. Comfortable and pleasant.
D. Romantic but time-consuming.
43. What was the biggest challenge that Long faced during the race
A. The changeable weather.
B. The mental state in the course.
C. The difficulty in finding the right route.
D. The physical strain of riding a long distance.
44. What is the text mainly about
A. An introduction to the Mongol Derby.
B. A review of a film based on the longest horse race.
C. The experience of the Mongol Derby's oldest winner.
D. The preparations before a long and difficult horse race.
45. What is the best title for the text
A. Competing in the Mongol Derby
B. All the Wild Horses
C. The Guinness Book of Records
D. Endless Mongolian grassland
C
I met Ariep on an island in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu. Being the last fluent Naati speaker in the area, he sorrowfully expressed his fear that, with his death, the language would no longer exist.
Naati is just an example of endangered language. Today, 50% to 90% of the world's languages are considered at risk of falling out of use by the end of the century.
Over the last 10 years, this crisis has attracted more public attention. While we praise previous efforts made to protect dying indigenous languages native to specific places and spoken by aboriginal people, let's stop and ask: Why does it matter
Should Naati's fate concern the world Many speakers of endangered languages, including Ariep, communicate fluently in other languages. Is the hope of "saving" these small languages just a romantic idea of unrealistic scholars
As a linguist, I'm on the opposite side of those answering "yes". I understand how critical and urgent language loss is. Individual communities rely on languages to form culture and identity, and for the global community, languages are an invaluable source of information about human cognition.
If a language is lost, the relevant community heritage will disappear. For instance, people who speak Lulamogi in Uganda feel anxious that as people forget the terms describing methods of catching and eating white ants, they will also forget this important cultural practice.
Language loss also means a loss of community identity and self-determination. Measuring their exact damage is hard, but the loss indeed harms the well-being of community members. By contrast, the ability of community members to speak their indigenous language together enhances well-being. In British Columbia, research has proved that the young generations in indigenous communities where at least 50% of the people speak the native language tend to exhibit a stronger sense of well-being and more optimistic attitudes toward life.
When a language is disappearing more is lost than just certain bits of information.
Understanding language is vital to understanding human cognition. Every language presents us with a piece of the puzzle for finding out how language works in our mind, without which we are prevented from seeing the full picture.
For everyone's sake, we must preserve the world's languages to ensure linguistic diversity for future generations.
46. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Ariep's fear. B. Naati's fate.
C. Public concern over the crisis.
D. Protecting endangered language.
47. What are the consequences of language loss
①Broken dreams of scholars.
②Loss of information sources.
③A big puzzle missing pieces.
④Damaging effects on well-being.
⑤Disappearance of cultural heritage.
A.①②③ B.①③⑤ C.②④⑤ D.②③④
48. Which of the following words can best describe the author's attitude toward saving endangered languages
A. Neutral. B. Supportive. C. Unconcerned. D. Disapproving.
49. Which can be the best title of the passage
A. Should we save endangered languages
B. Should Naati's fate concern the island
C. How to make a self-determination
D. How to promote community identity
50. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A diary. B. A novel. C. A guidebook. D. A magazine.
D
In recent studies we have been investigating mirror writing by typical 4-to 6-year-old children. The term is used because the characters — numbered and letters — are reversed（颠倒）, yet are correct when looked at in a mirror.
For quite a long time, the mainstream views on the phenomenon were supported by the observation of left-handed children writing reverse characters, which was insufficient and misleading as right-handed children do so as well. Even today, left-handedness is often the favorite explanation of teachers when children produce mirror writing.
We find mirror writing works on both the cerebral(relating to the brain) and the behavioral level. The former has long been limited to the simplistic 1925 theory by Samue Ort on that one of the cerebral hemispheres（大脑半球）(usually the left) would correctly store the letters while the other would store them in a mirrored form. More recently, however, it has been shown that the brain doesn't consider orientation（方 向） (left or right) when storing images, a process called mirror generalization.
This mirror generalization process, which can be very useful — for example, to recognize a face by both its left and right sides —leads children to know, from memory, the shape of the characters, but not their left / right orientation. It is important to note that the learning of the form of characters by children is mainly visual, and that children produce almost entirely horizontal mirror writing.
At the behavioral level, when children write the characters from memory, they must give them an. orientation. In countries whose primary languages are written in Latin characters —written from left to right — children tend to reverse mainly characters that face the left, such as 7 and q. However, when children are required to write from right to left, they instead reverse the right-oriented letters. This suggests that children usually orient characters in the direction of their. writing.
Our explanation is supported by analyzing tens of thousands of writing samples from more than a thousand children. Nevertheless, many parents continue to believe that mirror writing might be the indicator of a disorder such as dyslexia（读写困难）, as doctors may still suggest that mirror writing by children is a sign of a developmental issue. Our research on typical developing children does not support such claims.
51. What does the author want to show by mentioning the left-handedness view
A. The necessity of re-explaining mirror writing.
B. The role of teachers in addressing mirror writing.
C. The difficulty in adjusting children's handedness.
D. The challenge of writing faced by left-handed children.
52. What feature of the human brain was Samuel Ort on unaware of
A. It can recognize letters in a mirror forms.
B. It ignores the orientation during image storage.
C. Its ability to store visual images is quite limited.
D. Its left hemisphere is more active in storing letters.
53. What does mirror generalization help children know about a character
A. Its pronunciation. B. Its meaning.
C. Its orientation. D. Its outline.
54. Which combination is likely to be reversed by children writing from right to left
A. 7, J and Z. B. 9, D and F.
C. 6, B and R. D. 8, J and L.
55. What's the researchers' suggestion for parents
A. Limiting children's exposure to mirror writing.
B. Regarding mirror writing as something normal.
C. Encouraging children to overcome mirror writing.
D. Seeking professional advice on kid's developmental issues.

阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
I used to hate old books. When I say "old books," I don't mean classics, though. I mean books with yellow pages, broken spines（书脊） and odd wood-like smells that you need to be careful not to break because they are already so worn down. One can assume that I didn't own many old books. I had a few here and there that my parents had gifted me, but nothing too special.
In fourth grade, I was ready to venture into a new world of reading, one that went beyond the likes of children's chapter books and juvenile （青少年的） topics. Just then, I found my parents' old copies of the entire Harry Potter book series. Visually, my parents' books were my worst nightmare. I remember thinking to myself that reading these books was out of the question. However, I eventually had to come to terms with the fact that if I wanted to read the books, I would have to read my parents' copies. And so began the terrible journey of reading seven old books.
When it was time for me to read the final copy, I was kind of a changed woman. I still strongly disliked old books, but the plot of the entire Harry Potter series had attracted me so much that I had almost entirely forgotten what the books looked like. By the end, I had devoted an entire shelf in my room to the Harry Potter books.
Now, I love old books. I love how the covers are sometimes so worn down that you can barely read the title of the book, but you can understand what it's about anyway. After all, an old book is a representation of generations of readers who have chosen to live in a specific fictional world because the story it contains is just that good. Old books have meaning, and I love how much they mean to me now.
56. Who did the old copies of the entire Harry Potter book series belong to (no more than 5words)
57. What does the underlined part "out of the question" in Paragraph 2 mean (one word)
58. How did the author like the plot of the entire Harry Potter series (no more than 5 words)
59. What does the author mainly talk about in the last paragraph (no more than 10 words)
60. What kind of books do you like reading Why (no more than 20 words)

Dear Chris,
How is it going I've just had a "light bulb"moment for our entry in the upcoming
Campus Cultural and Creative Design Competition,and I can't wait to share it with you to get
your opinions.
How about creating a series of bookmarks On one side,we'll have our school motto,and
on the flip side,breathtaking illustrations showcasing our campus throughout the four seasons
will be presented.Each bookmark will capture a special moment or scene that perfectly
reflects the essence of that particular season.I really think this idea not only fits in the
competition theme but also offers a practical yet visually stunning product that truly represents
the spirit of our school.
What do you think Would love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions you might
have!
Yours,
Li Jin
