So, when the follow-up Finding Bear came out, I knew I had to get it. I pre-ordered it but waited until the beginning of this year to read it. It felt good to be starting the year with April and Bear again.The story in the book takes place about a year after April and her dad left Bear Island. She is finding it difficult to adjust to life back home and is struggling to get on well with her classmates. It doesn't avail her though her father has a good relationship with her headteacher. So, April is already struggling with her emotions before she hears that a polar bear has been shot near Longyearbyen. Convinced that it is her friend Bear, April asks her dad to fly over and look for him.When she gets there, she finds her friend but realizes that he has been through a lot in their time apart. Can April help her friend get his baby to safety without risking her own life Especially as she has to get assistance from a woman who is ready to shoot any polar bear she sees. Can April persuade the woman into helping them April is a conscientious and determined girl. She sees what humanity has done to the natural world and will do anything she can to help. She's an inspirational hero and manages to bring environmental issues to the forefront in an understandable way. Not only do we see April's passion but we see how the world is changing. Hannah Gold expertly combines realism with fantasy to write an emotional and important story.24. What problem does April have with her life away from the Bear Island A. She misses her homeland very much.B. Her headteacher is not satisfied with her.C. Her relationship with her father becomes worse.D. She finds it difficult to fit in with her classmates.25. What does the underlined word "avail" in paragraph 2 probably mean A. Help. B. Confuse. C. Interest. D. Embarrass.26. What can we learn about Finding Bear A. It has a follow-up The Last Bear.B. It is intended for middle school students.C. Its writer is good at writing science fiction.D. It draws people's attention to environmental problems.27. What is the text probably A. A book review. B. A travel journal.C. A children's story. D. A historical novel.CLanguage gradually shifts over time. Much research examines how social and environmental factors influence language change, but very little deals with the forces of human cognitive(认知的)select ion that fix certain words into the dictionary. For an extensive new study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, scientists investigated just that.In an experiment much like a game of telephone, thousands of participants read English-language stories and rewrote them to be read by other participants, who then rewrote them for others. Only certain words from the first stories survived in the final versions. Researchers analyzed the word types speakers consistently favored, theorizing that such preferences drive language change over time. The scientists also separately analyzed two large collections of English historical texts from the past two centuries, containing more than 40 billion words—again seeing only certain types survive.The results show three features that give words an“evolutionary(进化的) advantage”by helping them stick in the brain: First, words typically acquired at an early age (such as "hand" "uncle" or "today") are stabler. Next, concrete words remain better than abs tract ones: "dog" persists longer than "animal", which persists longer than "organism". Lastly, emotionally exciting words—whether negative or positive—tend to continue to exist.Early language-evolution models assumed that language becomes increasingly complex over time. But Indiana University Bloomington cognitive scientist Fritz Breithaupt says the new study supports a more recent theory that language finally gets more efficient and easier to understand.Still, as the study notes, "the English language is not baby talk." Breithaupt explains: "We shift toward simple language, but then we also grab complex language that we need." New words that address the complexity of modern life may somewhat balance out this shift.28. What is the purpose of the new study A. To find out why language gradually shifts over time.B. To present society is a key factor in language change.C. To identify how cognitive selection affects language change.D. To figure out what words are easily included in the dictionary.29. What were the participants asked to do during the experiment A. Play games on the phone. B. Read stories to other participants.C. Rewrite what they read for others. D. Analyze the words they prefer to use.30. Which words have the most evolutionary advantage according to the new study A. Head, imagination and happy. B. Mouth, horse and disappointed.C. Insect, fortune and competition. D. Soccer, organism and adventure.31. What is Fritz Breithaupt's attitude towards the new study A. Tolerant. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.DSpace travel is certainly not for someone who is not fearless, for many reasons including its effects on physical health. It can potentially disturb human immune systems(免疫系统) and increase red blood cell death. Astronaut s can even suffer from bone loss during missions. A recent study finds astronauts with no prior history of headaches may experience migraine(偏头疼) and tension-type headaches during long space flight—over 10 days in space.The study looked at 24 astronauts from NASA, the European Space Agency, and a Japanese agency. The astronauts all completed health screenings and a questionnaire about individual headache history before their space flight. Nine of them reported never having any headaches prior to the study, with three reporting a headache that disturbed their daily activities within the last year. None of the astronauts had a history of recurrent headaches or had a migraine report. During space flight, they filled out a daily questionnaire for the first seven days and a weekly questionnaire each following week throughout their stay in the International Space Station.The study found that 92 percent of the astronauts surveyed experienced headaches during space flight, compared to just 38 percent who reported experiencing headaches in the two to six months before going into space. Twenty-two of the 24 astronauts studied also experienced one or more headache times during their first week in space. About 89 percent of these headaches were tension headaches and 10 percent were likely a migraine. Headaches were also of a higher intensity and more likely to be like a migraine during the first week of their space flight.According to W. P. J. van Oosterhout, study co-author, the changes to the brain's balance and posture system, combined with adjusting to zero gravity during the first week of their space flight, can lead to space motion sickness in the first week, of which headache is the most frequently reported symptom. One of the study's limitations is that it relied on self-reporting of symptoms, so the memory recall may not have been completely accurate. "Further research is needed to explain the underlying causes of space headache and explore how such discoveries may provide insights into headaches occurring on Earth," said van Oosterhout.32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about A. The danger of space travel.B. The process of the new study.C. The standard of choosing the astronauts.D. Astronauts' full preparation for space travel.33. How does the author mainly develop paragraph 3 A. By analyzing reasons. B. By making comparisons.C. By giving examples. D. By listing figures.34. What does the new study find about the headache A. It will result in space motion sickness.B. It will become more serious with the flight on.C. It is an experience for most astronauts in early space flight.D. It helps astronauts keep a balance between the brain and the body.35. What does van Oosterhout think of the new finding A. It has small sample size.B. It needs to be improved further.C. It is correct and true in every detail.D. It will solve the space headache problem to some degree.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。For nearly a decade, I've interviewed lots of high achievers, from astronauts to Olympic gold medalists to Nobel Prize winners. What was revealing is that all high achievers had four things in common.Take advantage of your internal motivation.36 Getting to the "why" behind your career choice is critical, as it will help you get in touch with your deepest motivations, block out distractions(干扰), and potentially adjust your current path. For the highest achievers, it's not about the medals, rewards, or promotions. They all told me that they loved what they did, could not imagine another path, and would do it for free if they could.Get comfortable with failure.Some people fear failing while others fear succeeding. 37 For them, it's not a question of whether they can overcome a challenge; the focus is always on how they can. They consider alternative strategies and work fiercely to control what they can control, and ignore distractions.Enhance your foundation.Despite all of their achievements, high achievers never rest on their honors. Even if they've done a task or routine many times, they still work on the basic skills foundational to their current—and future—success. 38 It's also the strategy marathon runners use when they train in high altitudes so that running the race in normal conditions they feels easier.39The high achievers I spoke with are continuously open to learning, although it is rarely in the classroom. Many of the Nobel Prize winners I spoke to were also inspired as a result of their openness and curiosity. Several shared that their breakthrough ideas occurred through casual conversations with colleagues in cafeterias and laundry rooms. Conference lectures, coffee breaks and group meals are not just for building your network. 40A. Become a lifelong learner.B. Be the best whatever you do.C. It's where new ideas take root and develop.D. Why did you enter your chosen profession E. High achievers fear "not trying" more than they fear failing.F. In the military, people are similarly told to "train hard, fight easy".G. What should we do to realize our dreams and live a life without regret 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C 和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Over a decade ago, Heather Benoit was given a crayon as a gift by one of her students.

Laughing quietly, John reached for his bag, opened the bag and showed us the frog in his bag. Tom and I couldn't hold back the laughter, thinking about what would happen.Ring! As soon as the bell rang, other students, including Jane, hurried out of the classroom. We had planned to put a frog in Jane's bag and scare her for telling Ms Tan, our headteacher, that we were playing in the classroom when there was no teacher in class. "This should teach her a lesson!" I thought, smiling to myself. Once we were the only ones left in the classroom, I took the frog from John's bag. Surveying around to make sure that no one was walking past our classroom, I put the frog into Jane's bag secretly."Please take out the homework I assigned you yesterday," Ms Tan instructed after the break. Everyone started looking through their schoolbags for their homework. Out of the corner of my eye, I spied Jane bending down to open her bag. Glancing over at Tom and John, I saw them covering their mouths, trying to hide their laughter."Ahhh! There is a frog in my bag!"
