When we talk about Hangzhou, we must think of the West Lake. In fact, Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park and Yuhang oil paper umbrellas have already got much attention.
Located (位于) in the west of Hangzhou, Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park was founded in 2005 and is China's first national wetland park. The park is less than 5kilometers away from the West Lake. With an area of 11. 5 square kilometers, nearly 70% of the park is water. There are 6 long rivers and the waterways inside the park are more than 100 kilometers long. About 85% of the land in Xixi is covered by many kinds of trees. It is becoming a must-visit in Hangzhou.
As for Yuhang oil paper umbrellas, they have a history of more than 250 years. The traditional way of making them has been seen as a Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Heritage(非物质文化遗产) since 2007. These paper umbrellas come from Yuhang. That's why people call them Yuhang oil paper umbrellas.
Liu Weixue, 32, is the grandson of Liu Youquan, the inheritor(继承者) of the umbrella. Because of his love for traditional culture and the influence (影响) of his grandfather, Liu Weixue gave up his job and began to design(设计), make and sell Yuhang oil paper umbrellas with his students.
"It's not easy to make an umbrella— more than 70 steps, but it's our duty to pass down the

Mobile phones can take your attention away when you're trying to focus on something. That's why the Dutch government is banning (禁止) them—in classrooms, at least.
The government has announced that from January 1, 2024, students will not be allowed to use their mobile phones in classrooms, unless they are needed for medical reasons.
Robbert is the education minister of the Netherlands. He said that although mobile phones are a big part of our lives, there is no need to have them in the classroom. “Students need to be able to concentrate and need to be given the chance to study well. Mobile phones are a disturbance(干扰),scientific research shows. We need to protect students against this,” he said.
The ban has come about through an agreement between the government education department, schools, and relevant organizations. At first, it will be left up to schools how they enforce (执行).If the ban doesn't work legislation (立法) and binding rules may be introduced before the summer of 2024.
“We are going to look very closely at whether this decision works,” Robbert said.“Because, of course, there could always be a legal ban. But I actually believe that we can arrange(安排)this together.”
The move follows similar steps taken recently in Finland, a country that is widely regarded as having one of the best education systems in the world and which is also the birthplace of Nokia, one
of the most important companies in the development of mobile phones.
The Netherlands is not the first country to introduce a ban like this. In 2022, Italy to ok similar steps. France has also had a ban in place since September 2018. France bans mobile phones from schools for children between 3 and 15 years of age, and China introduced a similar ban in 2021.
28. Which country first banned mobile phones in classrooms
A. China. B. France. C. The Netherlands.
29. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The influence of mobile phones.
B. The need of calling a doctor.
C. The way of focusing on the lesson.
30.What is Robbert’ attitude (态度) toward the future of the ban
A. Confident. B. Worried. C. Doubtful.
31. What is the best title for the passage
A. Exam results become worse in the Netherlands
B. The Dutch education system should be changed
C. Mobile phones will be banned in Dutch classrooms

Imagine taking a flying taxi and getting where you want to go faster than you could in a car. Believe it or not, you might be able to do that in an air taxi sooner than you think.
Air taxis are more like helicopters(直升机)than planes. 32 They can go straight up and down, like a helicopter.
A company called Joby Aviation has created a program to fly people from their homes to the airport. The program is expected to start first in New York and Los Angeles. Joby’s air taxis will be flown by a pilot and can carry four other passengers. They can fly as fast as 200 miles per hour. By 2025, Joby hopes to start carrying passengers for money. 33 But over time, it hopes to bring the price down to less than $1 per mile.
Joby isn't the only company developing air panies around the world are working on developing similar vehicles(交通工具). 34 But there's still a lot to do before air taxis
become common. For one thing, governments need to make rules about where, when and how these taxis can fly. 35 For example, the air taxis may be quieter than helicopters, but they'll still add noise and traffic to the skies. And some people worry that only rich people will be able to afford to use them.
Still, it seems likely that air taxis will be part of the future of travel.
A. It can carry only one person.
B. Air taxis don't need a long runway like planes do.

第三节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面的短文，回答问题
In need of some rest You can now climb down419 meters to have the deepest sleep below ground. The hotel called Deep Sleep, located beneath the mountains of Snowdonia in Wales, is officially the world's deepest hotel. Guests must journey down through a slate mine (板岩矿) to reach the hotel.
The hotel has four private twin-bed cabins (小木屋) and a romantic grotto(洞穴) with a double bed. A single night stay for two in a private cabin costs 350 while the price for two in the grotto is 550.And if you're a single guest, you will have to pay the price of two, too.
You can only book the hotel for a Saturday night through to Sunday morning and getting to your room is far from relaxing. You will have to complete a 45-minute walk into the mountains and at the end you'll get a helmet, light, harness(安全带) and boots before going into the world's largest and deepest slate mine.
The trip down into the mine includes ancient miner stairwells(楼梯井),old bridges and a scramble(攀爬). It takes about 60 minutes, and once you complete the trip, you'll arrive at a set of large steel doors. Welcome to Deep Sleep!
Then try and relax for the evening with a free meal to enjoy at the picnic table. After that just head off to bed.
It's also important to note it's not exactly warm down there. It's about 10°C, so it will feel the same as if you were camping outside. Be sure to pack warm clothes.
All guests must get up before 8 am for a hot drink and breakfast before starting the trip back up to ground level. And going up is always harder than coming down. Whatever it certainly sounds unique.
56. Where is the hotel called Deep Sleep
57. How much do you have to pay if you sleep in the grotto for one night
58. How long will it take you to get to the hotel
59. What should you bring before going into the mine
60. What do you think of the trip to the Deep Sleep

Mobile phones can take your attention away when you're trying to focus on something. That's why the Dutch government is banning (禁止) them—in classrooms, at least.
The government has announced that from January 1,2024,students will not be allowed to use their mobile phones in classrooms,unless they are needed for medical reasons.
Robbert is the education minister of the Netherlands. He said that although mobile phones are a big part of our lives,there is no need to have them in the classroom.“Students need to be able to concentrate and need to be given the chance to study well. Mobile phones are a disturbance(干扰),scientific research shows.We need to protect students against this,"he said.
The ban has come about through an agreement between the government education department, schools, and relevant organizations. At first,it will be left up to schools how they enforce (执行).If the ban doesn't work legislation (立法) and binding rules may be introduced before the summer of 2024.
“We are going to look very closely at whether this decision works,"Robbert said.“Because, of course, there could always be a legal ban.But I actually believe that we can arrange(安排)this together.”
The move follows similar steps taken recently in Finland,a country that is widely regarded as having one of the best education systems in the world and which is also the birthplace of Nokia, one of the most important companies in the development of mobile phones.
The Netherlands is not the first country to introduce a ban like this.In 2022, Italy took similar steps. France has also had a ban in place since September 2018. France bans mobile phones from schools for children between 3 and 15 years of age, and China introduced a similar ban in 2021.
28.Which country first banned mobile phones in classrooms
A. China. B. France. C. The Netherlands.
29.What does the underlined word “this”in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.The influence of mobile phones.
B.The need of calling a doctor.
C.The way of focusing on the lesson.
30.What is Robbert's attitude (态度) toward the future of the ban
A. Confident. B. Worried. C.Doubtful.
31.What is the best title for the passage
A.Exam results become worse in the Netherlands
B.The Dutch education system should be changed
C.Mobile phones will be banned in Dutch classrooms
参考答案：
荷兰政府宣布从2024年1月1日起，学生将不允许在课堂上使用手机。荷兰的教育部长希望此举能让学生在课堂上集中注意力，免受手机的干扰。
28.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的The government has announced that from January 1,2024,students will not be allowed to use their phones in classrooms 和第七段中的In 2022.Italy took similar steps. France has also had a ban in place since September 2018. 以及 China introduced a similar ban in 2021 可知，法国于2018年9月实施手机禁令，比荷兰、意大利和中国都早。
29.A 推理判断题。根据第三段可知，this指代的是Mobile phones are a disturbance，即荷兰政府需要保护学生免受手机的干扰。
30.A推理判断题。根据第五段中的Because,of course, there could always be a legal ban.But I actually believe that we can arrange this together.可知，罗贝特认为总会有一个法律禁令的。但实际上他认为可以一起安排，由此可推知，他对此禁令的实施充满信心。
31.C主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了荷兰政府教育部门联合学校和相关组织制定了一项禁令——学生将不允许在课堂上使用手机。
第二节 (共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分)
Imagine taking a flying taxi and getting where you want to go faster than you could in a car. Believe it or not, you might be able to do that in an air taxi sooner than you think.
Air taxis are more like helicopters(直升机)than planes. 32 They can go straight up and down,like a helicopter.
A company called Joby Aviation has created a program to fly people from their homes to the airport. The program is expected to start first in New York and Los Angeles. Joby's air taxis will be flown by a pilot and can carry four other passengers. They can fly as fast as 200 miles per hour. By 2025,Joby hopes to start carrying passengers for money. 33 But over time,it hopes to bring the price down to less than $1 per mile.
Joby isn't the only company developing air panies around the world are working on developing similar vehicles(交通工具). 34 But there's still a lot to do before air taxis become common. For one thing,governments need to make rules about where, when and how these taxis can fly. 35 For example, the air taxis may be quieter than helicopters,but they'll still add noise and traffic to the skies. And some people worry that only rich people will be able to afford to use them.
Still, it seems likely that air taxis will be part of the future of travel.
A.It can carry only one person.
B. Air taxis don't need a long runway like planes do.
C. The company expects to charge ＄3 a mile at first.
D. France even plans to use a few air taxis during the 2024 Olympic Games.
E. For another, people also have some worries about them.
参考答案：
想象一下，坐一辆飞行出租车去你想去的地方！一家名为Joby Aviation的公司制定了一项计划，将人们从家中空运至机场。
32.B 根据空前一句“空中出租车更像直升机而不是飞机”及空后一句“它们可以像直升机一样直上直下”可推知，空处内容应介绍空中出租车的特点，故B项“空中出租车不像飞机那样需要长跑道”可承上启下，符合语境。
33.C 根据空前一句可知，到2025年，Joby希望开始通过载客赚钱；空后提到随着时间的推移，该公司希望将价格降到每英里不到1美元。由此可推知，空处内容应与载客的价格有关，故C项“起初，该公司预计按每英里3美元收费”可承上启下，符合语境。
34.D根据空前一句“Companies around the world are working on developing similar vehicles.”可知，世界各地的公司都在致力于开发类似的交通工具，故D项“法国甚至打算在2024年奥运会期间使用一些空中出
租车”可承接上文，符合语境。
35.E 空前提到在空中出租车普及之前还有很多事情要做。首先，政府需要对这些出租车的飞行地点、时间和方式作出规定；空后提到空中出租车仍会给天空增加噪声和交通流量，并指出了一些人的担忧。由此可推知，空处内容应与人们的担忧有关，故E项“另外，关于它们，人们还有一些担忧”可承上启下，符合语境。

You can only book the hotel for a Saturday night through to Sunday morning and getting to your room is far from relaxing. You will have to complete a 45-minute walk into the mountains and at the end you'll get a helmet,
light, harness(安全带) and boots before going into the world's largest and deepest slate mine.
The trip down into the mine includes ancient miner stairwells(楼梯井),old bridges and a scramble(攀爬).It takes about 60 minutes, and once you complete the trip, you'll arrive at a set of large steel doors. Welcome to Deep Sleep!
Then try and relax for the evening with a free meal to enjoy at the picnic table. After that just head off to bed.
It's also important to note it's not exactly warm down there. It's about 10°C, so it will feel the same as if you were camping outside. Be sure to pack warm clothes.
