If you are looking to get a better understanding of the world around you chemistry is the perfect subject to study. It’s a study of matter (物质), its properties — ways in which it behaves in special conditions, and how it interacts with everything around it. At the heart of all the discoveries, such as medicine, cooking, and several other areas, is one important table that organizes elements based on their atomic number and chemical properties: the periodic table.
Although the first periodic table was published in 1869, it was a work in progress for hundreds, if not thousands of years.
Since ancient times, people have been interested in elements such as gold, tin, iron and copper (which are written as Au, Sn, Fe and Cu in the table) in their natural forms. They were dug up from the ground and used to make jewelry, guns, coins, and many other things. Over time, people became more curious about these metals and how they were made up. In ancient Greece, Aristotle and other philosophers said things were made from the elements of earth, water, fire and air. For years, this idea was accepted. Then people began to consider this idea again during the Age of Enlightenment.
In 1661, Irish scientist Robert Boyle described an element as something that “cannot be broken down into a simpler matter by a chemical reaction”. Over a century later, Antone-Laurent de Lavoisier, Father of Chemistry, would publish the first modern textbook on chemistry. In it, he listed some matter which he believed should be divided as elements into two groups: metals and non-metals. Although his work wasn’t completely correct, it represented a big step forward at that time.
Over the next century, scientists started to divide the elements into different groups depending on their properties and atomic weights. However, it is Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev who is usually believed as the first person to make a periodic table. Although other scientists had handed in tables, they were finally refused by the scientific community because they were short of details. Mendeleev put all of the elements in a proper order according to their atomic mass. He was even smart enough to leave empty spaces for elements which hadn’t been discovered at the time. Although Mendeleev’s periodic table wasn’t perfect, it set the way or order which is similar to the one used today.
34. Why did people first become interested in elements
A. Many people wanted to be like a scientist.
B. They wanted to use metal s to make things.
C. People in ancient times was crazy about science.
D. They thought chemistry are useful for everything.
35. The writer mentioned Antonie-Laurent de Lavoisie ________.
A. to require us to care about the history
B. to encourage us to discover and think
C. to advise us to respect the great chemist
D. to remind us to pay attention to his contribution
36. What can we learn from the passage
A. The influence of chemistry is the easiest to see in the real world.
B. Aristotle was spoken highly of during the Age of Enlightenment.
C. Mendeleev is usually considered the first person to create the table.
D. Robert Boyle was the one who wrote down every element on Earth.
37. This passage is mainly about ________.
A. what the table is like B. why the table is popular
C. how the table developed D. when the table first appeared
C
Long ago, there was a judge who was famous throughout the land. When two people argued, the judge was always able to find a solution that was fair to both people, whether they were rich or poor.
One day, the judge went to a busy market. Merchants (商人) were selling live chickens, fruits, vegetables, and just about anything else you could think of. As he walked through the market, the judge saw that a large crowd had gathered outside a shop that sold live chickens. The judge walked near the crowd and asked a woman what was going on.
“A poor farmer was carrying a heavy sack (麻布大袋),” said the woman. “He accidentally fell down and dropped the sack on a chicken, killing it. The chicken belonged to the rich and greedy merchant who owns this shop,” she said, pointing to the shop.
The judge could hear two men shouting at each other. “It was lucky I was passing by,” thought the judge. “There is clearly an argument going on, and I am going to solve it.”
“Excuse me!” said the judge in a loud voice to the crowd. “Please let me through.” ①When people turned and saw the judge, they quickly moved aside to let him pass through.
The two men who were arguing saw the judge coming near. ②Then they stopped shouting and bowed to the judge. “Please help us solve our argument,” they said.
“Tell me what happened,” the judge said to the merchant who owned the shop that sold chickens.
“This farmer killed one of my chickens,” said the merchant. “Now he must pay for it!”
The judge asked to see the dead chicken. “It is quite a small young chicken,” said the judge.
“That is true,” said the merchant. “But in another two years that chicken would have grown large and fat. I can get 100 coins for a large, fat chicken. This farmer owes me 100 coins!”
③The farmer was too afraid to speak. A hundred coins was a huge amount of money for him. Everyone in the town, including the judge, knew the farmer couldn’t make enough money to buy clothes for his many children.
“I order you to pay this merchant 100 coins,” the judge said to the farmer. ④The crowd stood there with their mouth open in surprise. How could the farmer ever pay The greedy merchant was overjoyed.
The judge turned to the merchant. “How much grain does a chicken eat in two years ” asked the judge.
“One large sack of grain,” said the merchant. He exaggerated (夸张) to prove the high price he charged for his dead chicken.
“By killing this chicken, the farmer has saved you a large sack of grain,” said the judge. “I order you to give the sack of grain you have saved to the farmer.”
The merchant turned pale and hung his head. A large sack of grain was worth much more than 100 coins.
“I forgive this man for killing my chicken,” said the merchant. “I will take no money from him, as long as I do not have to give him a sack of grain.”
“As you wish,” said the judge, who was seen to smile as he walked away.
38. What’s the right order of the following events in this story
a. The farmer killed the merchant’s chicken by accident.
b. The judge ordered the farmer to pay for the dead chicken.
c. The merchant promised not to take money from the farmer.
d. The judge decided to help solve the argument in the market.
A. a-b-d-c B. b-d-c-a C. a-d-b-c D. c-a-b-d
39. What can we learn about the farmer and the merchant according to the story
A. The merchant played a trick on the judge.
B. The merchant got along well with the poor.
C. The farmer made a living by selling vegetables.
D. The farmer couldn’t afford clothes for his many children.

①More researchers are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor the enivironment and support endangered creatures. Unlike traditional methods that can damage the environment or require considerable (相当多的) time and physical work, AI has the ability to quickly and effectively deal with large quantities of data (数据). Let’s learn more details together.
②Creatures are disappearing at a speed thousands of times faster than that millions of years ago, with one million creatures endangered. The United Nations set a goal in 2020 to safeguard at least 30% of Earth’s land and oceans by the end of 2030. “AI is imperfect but could make important discoveries faster and earlier.” says Nicolas Mialhe, founder of The Future Society, an organization that aims to better manage Al. “We need skilled humans to design AI models and check and collect data.”
③A type of AI model called a convolutional neural network (CNN) has been developed to recognize bird sounds. The CNN is able to pick out 75 kinds of the birds the researchers have. “Our results prove that AI is ready for recognizing creatures in the wild from sound.” says Maller, the team leader. “All that is needed now is more training data collected by humans.”
④Besides monitoring creatures in real time, AI can be used to model the impacts of human activities on the environment and rebuild historical changes. Researchers have used AI to discover how a century’s environmental damage in a river has led to creature loss.
⑤Although it is well-known that human activities have resulted in creature loss in rivers and lakes, little is known about which activities have the largest impact. “AI will do soon,” says Luisa Orsini, a researcher from the University of Birmingham.
42 What can we infer from the words Nicolas Miailhe’s and Maller’s said
A. AI models can be designed by everyone. B. AI models have alreadly developed perfectly.
C. AI’s ability needs CNN to discover and achieve. D. AI’s ability is much greater than what people imagine.
43. The meaning of the underlined word “impacts” in Paragraph 4 is the closest to ________.
A. effects B. chances C. secrets D. purposes
44. What is the structure of the article
A. ①②③/④⑤ B. ①②/③④⑤ C. ①②/③④/⑤ D. ①/②③④⑤
45. Which of the following is true according to the article
A. Al is only used in monitoring the environment and support endangered creatures.
B. Researchers have already prevented a century’s environmental damage in a river.
C. Creatures are disappearing faster than before with one million creatures endangered.
D. Al has spent more time dealing with large quantities of data than traditional methods.

六、阅读与回答问题（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。
Jin Ying, 25, is a lover of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). She took part in the training course on acupuncture and tuina (针灸推拿) in the winter of 2023 at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
Jin’s life has been different since the training. She changed her life habits after learning the Five Elements theory (五行学说). For example, she avoided sweating too much during exercise in winter because the cold of winter means people should slow down, according to TCM. For her, learning these skills and theories was not about becoming a TCM doctor but rather about embracing (拥抱) a new lifestyle.
She is not an unusual example of young people becoming interested in TCM. A survey by China Youth Daily showed that 93.3 percent of the 1,000 young people who took part had tried different TCM treatments.
“I have seen a rising number of young people come to me for neck and back pains, which are usually related to the elderly,” said Ma Huifang, a TCM doctor at Guoyitang, a TCM hospital affiliated (附属) with Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
Between Western medicine and TCM, young people often choose TCM “due to its efficacy (疗效),” according to Ma. Some people question why TCM treats the same illnesses differently. “This is actually an advantage of TCM, rather than a shortcoming, as it can be a more accurate (精准的) treatment for different patients,” Ma explained.
Younger age groups are accepting TCM, and, at the same time, TCM is also benefiting young people. As Jin noted, “It helps young people understand Chinese medicine and learn why it is believed to be a treasure of our Chinese culture.” In addition, many international students come to China to study TCM as well.
So, do you want to know more about TCM

If you are looking to get a better understanding of the world around you, chemistry is the perfect subject to study. It’s a study of matter (物质), its properties — ways in which it behaves in special conditions, and how it interacts with everything around it. At the heart of all the discoveries, such as medicine, cooking, and several other areas, is one important table that organizes elements based on their atomic number and chemical properties: the periodic table.
Although the first periodic table was published in 1869 it was a work in progress for hundreds, if not thousands of years.
Since ancient times, people have been interested in elements such as gold, tin, iron and copper (which are written as Au, Sn, Fe and Cu in the table) in their natural forms. They were dug up from the ground and used to make jewelry, guns, coins, and many other things. Over time, people became more curious about these metals and how they were made up. In ancient Greece, Aristotle and other philosophers said things were made from the elements of earth, water, fire and air. For years, this idea was accepted. Then people began to consider this idea again during the Age of Enlightenment.
In 1661, Irish scientist Robert Boyle described an element as something that “cannot be broken down into a simpler matter by a chemical reaction”. Over a century later, Antone-Laurent de Lavoisier, Father of Chemistry, would publish the first modern textbook on chemistry. In it, he listed some matter which he believed should be divided as elements into two groups: metals and non-metals. Although his work wasn’t completely correct, it represented a big step forward at that time.
Over the next century, scientists started to divide the elements into different groups depending on their properties and atomic weights. However, it is Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev who is usually believed as the first person to make a periodic table. Although other scientists had handed in tables, they were finally refused by the scientific community because they were short of details. Mendeleev put all of the elements in a proper order according to their atomic mass. He was even smart enough to leave empty spaces for elements which hadn’t been discovered at the time. Although Mendeleev’s periodic table wasn’t perfect, it set the way or order which is similar to the one used today.
34. Why did people first become interested in elements
A. Many people wanted to be like a scientist.
B. They wanted to use metal s to make things.
C. People in ancient times was crazy about science.
D. They thought chemistry are useful for everything.
35. The writer mentioned Antonie-Laurent de Lavoisie ________.
A. to require us to care about the history
B. to encourage us to discover and think
C. to advise us to respect the great chemist
D. to remind us to pay attention to his contribution
36. What can we learn from the passage
A. The influence of chemistry is the easiest to see in the real world.
B. Aristotle was spoken highly of during the Age of Enlightenment.
C. Mendeleev is usually considered the first person to create the table.
D. Robert Boyle was the one who wrote down every element on Earth.
37. This passage is mainly about ________.
A. what the table is like B. why the table is popular
C. how the table developed D. when the table first appeared
【答案】34. B 35. D 36. C 37. C
【解析】

Long ago, there was a judge who was famous throughout the land. When two people argued, the judge was always able to find a solution that was fair to both people, whether they were rich or poor.
One day, the judge went to a busy market. Merchants (商人) were selling live chickens, fruits, vegetables, and just about anything else you could think of. As he walked through the market, the judge saw that a large crowd had gathered outside a shop that sold live chickens. The judge walked near the crowd and asked a woman what was going on.
“A poor farmer was carrying a heavy sack (麻布大袋),” said the woman. “He accidentally fell down and dropped the sack on a chicken, killing it. The chicken belonged to the rich and greedy merchant who owns this shop,” she said, pointing to the shop.
The judge could hear two men shouting at each other. “It was lucky I was passing by,” thought the judge. “There is clearly an argument going on, and I am going to solve it.”
“Excuse me!” said the judge in a loud voice to the crowd. “Please let me through.” ①When people turned and saw the judge, they quickly moved aside to let him pass through.
The two men who were arguing saw the judge coming near. ②Then they stopped shouting and bowed to the judge. “Please help us solve our argument,” they said.
“Tell me what happened,” the judge said to the merchant who owned the shop that sold chickens.
“This farmer killed one of my chickens,” said the merchant. “Now he must pay for it!”
The judge asked to see the dead chicken. “It is quite a small young chicken,” said the judge.
“That is true,” said the merchant. “But in another two years that chicken would have grown large and fat. I can get 100 coins for a large, fat chicken. This farmer owes me 100 coins!”
③The farmer was too afraid to speak. A hundred coins was a huge amount of money for him. Everyone in the town, including the judge, knew the farmer couldn’t make enough money to buy clothes for his many children.
“I order you to pay this merchant 100 coins,” the judge said to the farmer. ④The crowd stood there with their mouth open in surprise. How could the farmer ever pay The greedy merchant was overjoyed.
The judge turned to the merchant. “How much grain does a chicken eat in two years ” asked the judge.
“One large sack of grain” said the merchant. He exaggerated (夸张) to prove the high price he charged for his dead chicken.
“By killing this chicken, the farmer has saved you a large sack of grain,” said the judge. “I order you to give the sack of grain you have saved to the farmer.”
The merchant turned pale and hung his head. A large sack of grain was worth much more than 100 coins.
“I forgive this man for killing my chicken,” said the merchant. “I will take no money from him, as long as I do not have to give him a sack of grain.”
“As you wish,” said the judge, who was seen to smile as he walked away.
38. What’s the right order of the following events in this story

①More researchers are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor the enivironment and support endangered creatures. Unlike traditional methods that can damage the environment or require considerable (相当多的) time and physical work, AI has the ability to quickly and effectively deal with large quantities of data (数据). Let’s learn more details together.
②Creatures are disappearing at a speed thousands of times faster than that millions of years ago, with one million creatures endangered. The United Nations set a goal in 2020 to safeguard at least 30% of Earth’s land and oceans by the end of 2030. “AI is imperfect but could make important discoveries faster and earlier.” says Nicolas Mialhe, founder of The Future Society, an organization that aims to better manage Al. “We need skilled humans to design AI models and check and collect data.”
③A type of AI model called a convolutional neural network (CNN) has been developed to recognize bird sounds. The CNN is able to pick out 75 kinds of the birds the researchers have. “Our results prove that AI is ready for recognizing creatures in the wild from sound.” says Maller, the team leader. “All that is needed now is more training data collected by humans.”
④Besides monitoring creatures in real time, AI can be used to model the impacts of human activities on the environment and rebuild historical changes. Researchers have used AI to discover how a century’s environmental damage in a river has led to creature loss.
⑤Although it is well-known that human activities have resulted in creature loss in rivers and lakes, little is known about which activities have the largest impact. “AI will do soon,” says Luisa Orsini, a researcher from the University of Birmingham.
42. What can we infer from the words Nicolas Miailhe’s and Maller’s said
A. AI models can be designed by everyone. B. AI models have alreadly developed perfectly.
C. AI’s ability needs CNN to discover and achieve. D. AI’s ability is much greater than what people imagine.
43. The meaning of the underlined word “impacts” in Paragraph 4 is the closest to ________.
A. effects B. chances C. secrets D. purposes
44. What is the structure of the article
A. ①②③/④⑤ B. ①②/③④⑤ C. ①②/③④/⑤ D. ①/②③④⑤
45. Which of the following is true according to the article
A. Al is only used in monitoring the environment and support endangered creatures.
B. Researchers have already prevented a century’s environmental damage in a river.
C. Creatures are disappearing faster than before with one million creatures endangered.
D. Al has spent more time dealing with large quantities of data than traditional methods.

六、阅读与回答问题（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。
Jin Ying, 25, is a lover of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). She took part in the training course on acupuncture and tuina (针灸推拿) in the winter of 2023 at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
Jin’s life has been different since the training. She changed her life habits after learning the Five Elements theory (五行学说). For example, she avoided sweating too much during exercise in winter because the cold of winter means people should slow down, according to TCM. For her, learning these skills and theories was not about becoming a TCM doctor but rather about embracing (拥抱) a new lifestyle.
She is not an unusual example of young people becoming interested in TCM. A survey by China Youth Daily showed that 93.3 percent of the 1,000 young people who took part had tried different TCM treatments.
“I have seen a rising number of young people come to me for neck and back pains, which are usually related to the elderly,” said Ma Huifang, a TCM doctor at Guoyitang, a TCM hospital affiliated (附属) with Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
Between Western medicine and TCM, young people often choose TCM “due to its efficacy (疗效),” according to Ma. Some people question why TCM treats the same illnesses differently. “This is actually an advantage of TCM, rather than a shortcoming, as it can be a more accurate (精准的) treatment for different patients,” Ma explained.
Younger age groups are accepting TCM, and, at the same time, TCM is also benefiting young people. As Jin noted, “It helps young people understand Chinese medicine and learn why it is believed to be a treasure of our Chinese culture.” In addition, many international students come to China to study TCM as well.

【答案】例文：
With the development of modern technology, the way of learning is changing. I think I still prefer the traditional learning in a classroom.
First, there is a fixed timetable. A clear plan is often made by a school, so I don’t need to think about how to arrange when to learn different subjects. Second, we can have face-to-face conversations with both teachers and classmates. Third, there are colorful activities in class. In this way, I can learn the new knowledge happily. What’s more, learning in the classroom can help me develop a sense of team spirit, so I can learn how to get along with others.
However, when I study in the classroom, sometimes I can’t follow my teacher. And learning in the classroom can’t provide enough resources for me to choose from.
