A Selection of Museums and Attractions in Washington DC
The Tidal Basin
The basin, part of the West Potomac Park, is surrounded by a path that’s perfect for walking, running or cycling. The memorials to Thomas Jefferson and Martin Luther King Junior are two highlights surrounding the lake. It is the location most associated with Washington’s Cherry Blossom (樱花) Festival that takes place each spring.
National Museum of African American History and Culture
The museum opened in late 2016 after more than a decade of planning. It is dedicated to African American history and culture and is organized like a vertical timeline, starting with the Atlantic slave trade on the 1400s and moving up to the 21st century. Higher up are exhibitions on African American music, theatre and art. It’s a powerful experience and also very popular: you’ll have to apply for a timed ticket to enter.
The Newseum
Further along Pennsylvania Avenue is the Newseum, loved for the 800 newspaper front pages from around the world that are hung outside every morning. Inside, there are moving exhibits showing how important historical events have been reported, such as the September 11 attacks. Alongside newspaper pages from the day after the attacks, there’s a video exhibit highlighting the work of journalists reporting on the Twin Towers falling. A must if you’re interested in journalism.
National Gallery of Art
The art gallery is an impressive space: two buildings, linked underground, and a sculpture garden next door. Inside the light-filed East Building there’s modern art, including a roomful of Jackson Pollock’s murals (壁), Andy Warhol’s Green Marilyn and Roy Lichtenstein’s Look Mickey.
The classical West Building tends to house older artwork: the European impressionists and Italian Renaissance art (from artists including Da Vinci and Raphael) are two highlights.

For some of us, going to the dentist for routine check-ups is a thing of the ordinary. But for many people around the world, especially those in impoverished (贫困的) areas, having dental improvement and their teeth checked simply isn’t possible. A Brazilian dentist Felipe Rossi has devoted himself to helping changing that situation.
Growing up in USA, Felipe Rossi had just obtained the Bachelor of Medicine Degree and was about to start a master’s degree in Pediatric Dentistry (儿童口腔学) when a journey to his father’s home — Balsabo in Brazil — converted his initial plan.
“All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.”
With the support of his parents, Felipe formed an NGO (non-government organization) called Porsorriso to give free oral treatments to individuals with low incomes who require cleaning. fillings, crowns, restoration work and more. His team is composed of approximately 30 registered volunteers who go with him to poor towns and villages in Brazil.
Sponsorship is generally provided by two private companies. Individuals may also make donations through the ‘Smile Solidarity’ program, where they can choose monthly amounts to contribute. Porsorriso also holds regular fundraisers to afford the cost of providing free dental services around the country.
As noble as its objective is, Felipe admits that Porsorriso is “struggling to survive” because of the huge cost of providing dental work and the constant fundraising events they have to hold to keep the NGO in normal functioning. “Challenging as it is, it did bring healthy teeth as well as renewed confidence to the locals. We will continue this transformative act whatever difficulties we will face”. Felipe said with a strong will.
24．How does the author introduce the topic of the text
A．By posing a contrast. B．By reporting an event.
C．By assuming a situation. D．By making an appeal.
25．What motivated Felipe to offer dental treatments to Brazilians
A．The support from his parents. B．The passion for dental health.
C．The encounter with local s lacking dental care. D．The professional skills and knowledge from college.
26．Which of the following can best describe Felipe Rossi
A．Hopeful and diligent. B．Faithful and ambitious.
C．Intelligent and creative. D．Charitable and dedicated.
27．What do we know about Porsorriso
A．It gives free oral treatments to anyone in need.
B．It is cooperated by Felipe Rossi and the local authority.
C．It is financially supported by corporations and individuals.
D．It holds regular fundraisers to educate people about dental care.
C
July was the hottest month on record globally. High temperatures and serious wildfires have swept across the Northern Hemisphere. Oceanic heat waves are damaging the world’s third-largest coral reef off Florida. And as the levels of greenhouse gases continue to increase, it means many even hotter summers lie ahead.
Last week, the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres coined a new term. The time of “global warming” has ended, he announced, and the time of “global boiling” has arrived.
But critics have strongly disagreed with the phrase. At one level, “global boiling” is clearly an overstatement, but “global warming” is now far too weak a description. Many climate scientists have pushed for the term “global heating” to be used in preference. Similarly, phrases such as “climate crisis” haven’t received enough attention. That’s because many of us still feel we haven’t seen this crisis with our own eyes.
But that is changing. In the past few years, extreme weather and relevant events have struck many countries. Australia’s Black Summer brought wildfires that burned an area the size of the United Kingdom. Germany suffered serious flooding in 2021. The 2022 flood in Pakistan flooded large parts of the country. China has seen both droughts and floods. Terrible droughts have hit the Horn of Africa for many years. India has stopped rice exports due to damage from heavy rain.
Critics of climate action often complain about what they see as the overuse of “crisis talk”. If everything is a crisis, nothing is a crisis.
When Guterres uses deeply impactful phrases, he’s not inviting us to imagine a Hollywood-style disaster. What he’s hoping is to make people listen and act — now we can see what climate change looks like.
Are there better phrases to describe this Possibly. Take the challenge yourself: can you think up a brief, correct phrase to cover worsening local-and-regional-scale droughts, fires, typhoons and floods; damage to crops and food safety; water shortages; existential threats to coral reefs and low-lying communities You can see how hard it is.
28．What does the underlined word “coined” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Explained. B．Invented.
C．Valued. D．Accepted.
29．What do critics think of the term “global boiling”
A．It is overused. B．It is exaggerated.
C．It is lacking in enough attention. D．It is too weak to describe the problem.
30．What can we infer from paragraph 4
A．Climate crises are worsening. B．Several crises will be solved.
C．People will face food shortages. D．People are taking effective measures.
31．What is Guterres’s hope in using deeply impactful phrases
A．To scare people into taking immediate action.
B．To entertain readers with Hollywood-style stories.
C．To provide a more accurate description of global warming.
D．To make people aware of the severity of the climate crisis.
D
In some parts of the world people are likely to plan for the future, while in others people are more likely to live in the moment. In some societies people prefer more personal space; in others they are comfortable being in close quarters in public.
There are a number of theories about where cultural differences between societies come from. In a growing number of cases, researchers have found that human culture an be shaped by key features of the environments in which people live.
Ecology includes basic physical and social characteristics of the environment—such factors as how rich a place is in resources, how common infectious (传染性的) diseases are, how heavily populated a place is, and how much threat there is to human safety. Variables like temperature and the availability of water can be key ecological features.
For over 200 societies, our lab at Arizona State University gathered comprehensive data on nine key features of ecology— such as rainfall, temperature, infectious disease and natural resources —and dozens of aspects of human cultural variation— including values, strength of social norms (社会规范), personality, motivation and institutional characteristics. With this information, we created the EcoCultural Dataset.
Using this dataset, we were able to generate a range of estimates for just how much of human cultural variation can explained by ecology.
We ran a series of statistical models looking at the relationship between our ecological variables and each of the 66 cultural outcomes we tracked. For each of the cultural outcomes, we calculated the average amount of the cultural diversity across societies that was explained by this combination of nine different ecological factors. We found that nearly 20% of cultural variation was explained by the combination of these ecological features.
Importantly, our statistical estimates take into account common issues in cross-cultural research. There will likely be unmeasured similarities between societies with shared historical roots and traditions.
Ecology isn’t the only reason people around the world think and behave differently. But our work suggests that, at least in part, our environments shape our cultures.
32．Which best explains why people are comfortable being in close quarters in public
A．They are friendly to each other. B．They like staying in public places.
C．They enjoy spending time with others. D．They live in a place with cold temperatures.
33．What do we know about the EcoCultural Dataset
A．It’s a combination of humans and nature. B．It’s a combination of ecology and culture.
C．It’s a comparison between theory and practice. D．It’s a comparison between ecology and culture.
34．What did the author's lab want to find out
A．Where cultural differences come from. B．Whether ecological features affect culture.
C．How strong the ecology-culture connection is. D．Why cultural differences between societies exist.
35．What is the conclusion of the author’s study
A．Shared traditions lead to cultural similarities.
B．There are cultural differences between societies.
C．Cultures are shaped by the environments people live in.
D．Cultural differences partly come from ecological factors.

Ten years ago, not many families in the United States would consider homeschooling a serious option for their children. There were negative feelings about homeschooling, especially among school educators, who considered it crazy or irresponsible. But things have changed now. 36 As homeschooling becomes more widely practiced, school communities are becoming far more accepting and recognize that it can meet real needs.
37 Homeschooling provides community life that is valuable to children. Participating in community life, homeschooled children relate socially with a wide variety of people. 38 Without social pressure from age-separated classrooms, kid feel more comfortable forming friendships.
39 We often hear parents and kids talk about how relieved they feel from being freed of traditional schooling and nightly homework. With independent learning, they have more time to talk and listen; more time to spend in libraries, museums, and concert halls; or to hike, ride bikes, read, or think. These changes are what happens when family life is driven by the needs of families, rather than the needs of institutions.
Homeschooling also creates better learning environments for children who have been wrongly considered as having all sorts of imaginary “learning problems” in public and private schools. The educators want the children to be fixed so that they will fit; the parents correctly sense that their children are fine and only need something different: more space, freedom to move, a safe environment, or respectful treatment from others. 40
A．Homeschooling helps children lo broaden their knowledge.
B．In homeschooling families, life is likely to be less stressful.
C．Some people choose homeschooling for socialization benefits.
D．Homeschooling success stories are often reported in the media.
E．People can see how easy it is to get along with homeschooled kids.
F．For these families, homeschooling helps a child build a life that works.
G．The combination of two kinds of schooling has a great effect on a child.

Lisa Sweeney is a 32-year-old mail carrier in Staten Island, New York. Four months ago, she noticed that something wasn’t
right at one of the homes on her route. It was her quick action that made all the difference.
One afternoon in August, an old woman named Marie Boyer, who lived alone, fell at the foot of the stairs in her home. She was just lying unconscious on the floor.
The next afternoon, her regular mail carrier, Lisa Sweeney, passed by and noticed something unusual. Though she and Marie hadn’t had much conversation over the years, Lisa knew her habits. She was surprised not to see Marie working in her garden, because she usually spent most afternoons there when the weather was fine.
“I just had a feeling in my heart that Marie was inside.” Lisa recalls. She went straight round to the back of the house, thinking that the old woman might be in the kitchen, but she didn’t find anybody there. Puzzled, Lisa returned to the front of the house and knocked hard on the door. There was no answer. She thought that this was very strange, so she knocked on a neighbor’s door, but he’d been away on vacation and arrived home just a short time before so he didn’t know anything. Just then Lisa noted that Mane’s bottle of milk, which was delivered early in the morning, was still on the doorstep. It was a clear warning sign.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150左右：
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“I must get in to see what’s happened.” Lisa said to herself.

第二部分 客观题
21．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It’s a powerful experience and also very popular: you’ll have to apply for a timed ticket to enter.”（这是一次强烈的体验，也非常受欢迎：你必须申请一个定时的票才能进入。）可知，需要提前预订票的是非洲美洲历史文化博物馆。故选D。
22．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Inside, there are moving exhibits showing how important historical events have been reported, such as the September 11 attacks.”（里面有一些动人的展览，展示了重要的历史事件是如何被报道的，比如9月11日的袭击。）可知，新闻博物馆的参观者可以了解新闻的故事。故选A。
23．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Inside the light-filed East Building there’s modern art, including a roomful of Jackson Pollock’s murals (壁), Andy Warhol’s Green Marilyn and Roy Lichtenstein’s Look Mickey.”（在光线充足的东楼里，有现代艺术，包括杰克逊·波洛克的一屋子壁画，安迪·沃霍尔的绿色玛丽莲和罗伊·利希滕斯坦的看米奇。）可知，绿色玛丽莲是现代艺术的一部分，所以在东楼展出。故选A。
24．推理判断题。根据第一段“For some of us, going to the dentist for routine check-ups is a thing of the ordinary. But for many people around the world, especially those in impoverished (贫困的) areas, having dental improvement and their teeth checked simply isn’t possible. A Brazilian dentist Felipe Rossi has devoted himself to helping changing that situation.(对我们中的一些人来说，去牙医那里做例行检查是一件很平常的事情。但对世界上许多人来说，尤其是那些生活在贫困地区的人来说，改善牙齿和检查牙齿根本是不可能的。巴西牙医费利佩·罗西致力于帮助改变这种状况)”可知，文章开头通过对比一些人定期去牙医处进行常规检查，而世界上很多人尤其是贫困地区的人们无法进行牙科治疗和牙齿检查的情况，引出了文章的主题，即巴西牙医Felip e Rossi致力于帮助改变这种情况。因此，作者通过提出对比来引入文章的主题。故选A项。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段““All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.”(‘并不是所有的当地人都能得到牙科护理，因此，很多人的牙齿都变形了，甚至掉了牙，导致很多人不敢张嘴笑。’Felipe Rossi回忆道。‘一种渴望在我心中扎根。也就是说，用我的技能给患有牙病的人带来健康的微笑。’)”可知，Felipe Rossi在巴西的Balsabo地区看到当地人没有机会接受牙科治疗，很多人因此牙齿变形或甚至失去牙齿，这激发了他提供牙科治疗的决心；由此可知，是当地人缺乏牙科护理的情况促使Felipe为巴西人提供牙科治疗。故选C项。
26．推理判断题。根据第二段““All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.”(‘并不是所有的当地
人都能得到牙科护理，因此，很多人的牙齿都变形了，甚至掉了牙，导致很多人不敢张嘴笑。’Felipe Rossi回忆道。‘一种渴望在我心中扎根。也就是说，用我的技能给患有牙病的人带来健康的微笑。’)”可知，Felipe Rossi想要利用自己的技能为遭受牙科问题的人们带来健康的笑容，这表明他具有慈善精神。在最后一段中“As noble as its objective is, Felipe admits that Porsorriso is “struggling to survive” because of the huge cost of providing dental work and the constant fundraising events they have to hold to keep the NGO in normal functioning. “Challenging as it is, it did bring healthy teeth as well as renewed confidence to the locals. We will continue this transformative act whatever difficulties we will face”. Felipe said with a strong will.(尽管目标崇高，Felipe承认Porsorriso正在‘挣扎着生存’，因为提供牙科治疗的巨大成本和他们必须举行的持续筹款活动以保持非政府组织的正常运作。‘虽然这很有挑战性，但它确实给当地人带来了健康的牙齿，并重新树立了信心。无论我们面临什么困难，我们都将继续这一变革行动。’斐利贝带着强烈的意志说)”可知，他承认Porsorriso的生存很困难，但他们将继续进行这项改变性的行动，无论他们将面临什么困难，这表明他具有奉献精神。故选D项。
27．细节理解题。根据第四段“Sponsorship is generally provided by two private companies. Individuals may also make donations through the ‘Smile Solidarity’ program, where they can choose monthly amounts to contribute. Porsorriso also holds regular fundraisers to afford the cost of providing free dental services around the country.(赞助通常由两家私人公司提供。个人也可以通过‘微笑团结’计划捐款，他们可以选择每月的捐款数额。Porsorriso还定期举行筹款活动，为全国各地提供免费牙科服务)”可知，Porsorriso是由企业和个人提供经济支持。故选C项。
28．词句猜测题。由文章第二段“Last week, the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres coined a new term. The time of ‘global warming’ has ended, he announced, and the time of ‘global boiling’ has arrived.(上周，联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯coined一个新术语。他宣布，‘全球变暖’的时代已经结束，‘全球沸腾’的时代到来了。)”可知，这里应指安东尼奥·古特雷斯“创造”出一个新术语。所以猜测coined表“创造”的意思。故选B项。
29．推理判断题。由文章第三段“But critics have strongly disagreed with the phrase. At one level, ‘global boiling’ is clearly an overstatement, but‘global warming’ is now far too weak a description.(但批评者强烈反对这个说法。在某种程度上，‘全球变暖’显然是夸大其词，但现在对‘全球升温’的描述太弱了。)”可知，批评者认为用“全球沸腾”一词把实际情况夸大了。故选B项。
30．推理判断题。由文章第四段“But that is changing. In the past few years, extreme weather and relevant events have struck many countries. Australia’s Black Summer brought wildfires that burned an area the size of the United Kingdom. Germany suffered serious flooding in 2021. The 2022 flood in Pakistan flooded large parts of the country. China has seen both droughts and floods. Terrible droughts have hit the Horn of Africa for many years. India has stopped rice exports due to damage from heavy rain.(但这种情况正在改变。在过去几年中，极端天气和相关事件袭击了许多国家。澳大利亚的黑夏带来了野火，烧毁了相当于英国大小的地区。2021年，德国遭遇严重洪灾。2022年巴基斯坦的洪水淹没了该国大部分地区。中国经历了旱灾和水灾。多年来，可怕的干旱袭击了非洲之角。由于暴雨造成的损失，印度已经停止了大米出口。)”可知，气候危机正在恶化。故选A项。
31．细节理解题。由文章第六段“When Guterres uses deeply impactful phrases, he’s not inviting us to imagine a Hollywood-style disaster. What he’s hoping is to make people listen and act — now we can see what climate change looks like.(当古特雷斯使用极具影响力的短语时，他并不是在邀请我们想象一场好莱坞式的灾难。他希望的是让人们倾听并采取行动——现在我们可
以看到气候变化是什么样子了。)”可知，古特雷斯希望使用极具影响力的短语，让人们意识到气候危机的严重性。故选D项。
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了生态文化数据集表明了环境塑造了我们的文化。
32．细节理解题。根据第三段“Variables like temperature and the availability of water can be key ecological features.(温度和水的可用性等变量可能是关键的生态特征)”以及最后一段“But our work suggests that, at least in part, our environments shape our cultures.(但我们的研究表明，至少在某种程度上，我们的环境塑造了我们的文化)”可知，生活在一个温度很低的地方最能解释为什么人们在公共场合会觉得近距离接触很舒服。故选D。
33．细节理解题。根据第四段“For over 200 societies, our lab at Arizona State University gathered comprehensive data on nine key features of ecology— such as rainfall, temperature, infectious disease and natural resources —and dozens of aspects of human cultural variation— including values, strength of social norms (社会规范), personality, motivation and institutional characteristics. With this information, we created the EcoCultural Dataset.(我们在亚利桑那州立大学的实验室收集了200多个社会的综合数据，涉及生态的九个关键特征——如降雨、温度、传染病和自然资源——以及人类文化差异的几十个方面——包括价值观、社会规范的强度、个性、动机和制度特征。有了这些信息，我们创建了生态文化数据集)”可知，生态文化数据集是生态和文化的结合。故选B。
34．细节理解题。根据第五段“Using this dataset, we were able to generate a range of estimates for just how much of human cultural variation can explained by ecology.(利用这个数据集，我们能够对人类文化差异有多少可以用生态学来解释产生一系列的估计)”可知，作者的实验室想知道生态与文化的联系有多强。故选C。
35．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ecology isn’t the only reason people around the world think and behave differently. But our work suggests that, at least in part, our environments shape our cultures.(生态并不是世界各地人们思维和行为不同的唯一原因。但我们的研究表明，至少在某种程度上，我们的环境塑造了我们的文化)”可知，作者的研究结论是文化差异部分来自生态因素。故选D。
36．根据上文“There were negative feelings about homeschooling, especially among school educators, who considered it crazy or irresponsible. But things have changed now.”（人们对在家上学持消极态度，尤其是在学校教育工作者中，他们认为这是疯狂的或不负责任的。）根据下文“As homeschooling becomes more widely practiced, school communities are becoming far more accepting and recognize that it can meet real needs.”（随着在家上学的实践越来越广泛，学校社区越来越接受并认识到它可以满足实际需要。）可知，选项承接上下文说明在家上学受欢迎的具体表现。故D选项“媒体经常报道在家上学的成功故事”切题。故选D项。
37．根据下文“Homeschooling provides community life that is valuable to children. Participating in community life, homeschooled children relate socially with a wide variety of people.”（在家上学为孩子们提供了有价值的社区生活。在家上学的孩子参与社区生活，与各种各样的人建立社会关系。）可知，下文具体解释了在家上学有助于培养社交。所以选项承接下文与社交有关。故C选项“有些人选择在家上学是为了社交”切题。socialization benefits呼应relate socially with a wide variety of people。故选C项。
38．根据下文“Without social pressure from age-separated classrooms, kid feel more comfortable forming friendships. ”（没有了不同年龄班级的社会压力，孩子们更容易建立友谊。）可知，选项承接下文说明在家学习使得与孩子相处更容易。easy呼应kid feel more comfortable forming friendship。故E选项“人们可以看到与在家上学的孩子相处是多么容易。”切题。故选E项。
39．根据下文“We often hear parents and kids talk about how relieved they feel from being freed of traditional schooling and nightly homework. With independent learning, they have more time to talk and listen; more time to spend in libraries, museums, and concert halls; or to hike, ride bikes, read, or think.”（我们经常听到父母和孩子们谈论他们从传统的学校教育和夜间作业中解脱出来是多么的轻松。通过自主学习，他们有更多的时间说话和倾听;花更多的时间在图书馆、博物馆和音乐厅;或者去远足、骑自行车、读书或思考。）可知，本段主要在说在家上学减轻了家庭压力。故B选项“在家上学的家庭，生活压力可能会小一些”切题，为本段的标题。故选B项。
40．根据上文“Homeschooling also creates better learning environments for children who have been wrongly considered as having all sorts of imaginary “learning problems” in public and private schools. The educators want the children to be fixed so that they will fit; the parents correctly sense that their children are fine and only need something different: more space, freedom to move, a safe environment, or respectful treatment from others.”（在家上学也为那些在公立和私立学校被错误地认为有各种想象中的“学习问题”的孩子创造了更好的学习环境。教育者希望孩子们能够适应;父母正确地意识到他们的孩子很好，只是需要一些不同的东西:更多的空间，自由移动，安全的环境，或者尊重他人的对待。）可知，选项承接上文总结上文说明对孩子的重要意义。故F选项“对于这些家庭来说，在家上学可以帮助孩子建立一个有意义的生活。”故选F项。

第二节 读后续写
“I must get in to see what’s happened,” Lisa said to herself. With a sense of urgency, Lisa worriedly checked around the house, trying the back door that Marie sometimes left unlocked. As it creaked open, she called out for Marie and followed a faint sound to find her unconscious at the foot of the stairs. Lisa dialed 911 immediately and stayed by Marie’s side, comforting her until help arrived. Her quick action potentially saved Marie’s life, and their bond grew stronger as Lisa continued to support her through recovery.
Lisa’s quick action not only saved a life but also started a friendship. As Marie recuperated in the hospital, Lisa visited regularly, providing companionship and support. Marie’s family, grateful for Lisa’s timely intervention, welcomed her warmly into their lives. This experience underscored the importance of attentiveness and care within a community, illustrating how small acts of concern can forge deep connections that endure beyond the moment of crisis.
