Filming in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest
The Kamas Ranger District handles film permits for the Kamas district of the Wasatch- Cache National Forest.
To ensure that permits are issued in time for filming, the Forest Service requests that application form be handed in three to four weeks prior to filming.
The fee structure for filming in the National Forest is as follows: Filming Special Use Fee
1 to 10 people-$150 per day
11 to 30 people-$200 per day
31 to 60 people-$500 per day
Over 61 people-$600 per day
Film Monitoring Fee
1 day filming-FREE
Extra days-$200 per day Additional Fees
Additional fees will be charged in the following situations:
Large production （greater than 100 people）, multiple site filming that may require additional film monitoring to protect natural resources and a performance agreement in the form of a deposited check.
Upon approval, a Special Use Permit will be issued with a bill for collection. Checks should be made payable to “USDA Forest Service, ” and payment must be received before filming. Note
Some areas of the forest are especially sensitive to impacts from vehicles, domestic animals, and people. These areas include wetlands, streams, lake shorelines, and most meadow areas. Filming requests in these sensitive areas will require special surveys to determine possible environmental impacts. The request may be denied.
21. What is one expected to do for filming
A. Issue the permit weeks before filming. B. Submit the application form in advance.
C. Give top priority to time arrangement. D. Outline the fee structure in the forest.
22. How much will a week’s film monitoring be charged

23. Which of the following will be charged additional fees
A. Paying the bill in cash. B. Entry into the sensitive areas.
C. Production with over 61 people. D. Filming in different sites.
B
I used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves. Words were everything.
That belief changed.
In an ordinary math class, my teacher posed a simple question: What’s 0.99 rounded to the nearest whole number Easy. When rounded to the nearest whole number, 0.99=1. Somehow, I thought even though 0.99 is only 0.01 away from 1, there’s still a 0.01 difference. That means even if two things are only a little different, they are still different, so doesn’t that make them completely different
My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation （等式）: 1= 0.9, which could also be expressed as 1=0.99999.... repeating itself without ever ending.
There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.
Lying in bed, I thought about how much the equation paralleled our existence. The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear. The concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death. The right side means a time and space full of limitless possibilities, and endless opportunities into the open future.
So that’s what life is. Objective but imaginative. Unchangeable but limitless. Life is an equation with two sides that balances itself out. Still, we can’t ever truly seem to put the perfect words to it. So possibly numbers can express ideas as equally well as words can. For now, let’s leave it at that: 1= 0.99999... and live a life like it.
24. What does the author emphasize about words in paragraph 1
A. Their wide variety. B. Their literary origins.
C. Their distinct sounds. D. Their expressive power.
25. What made the author find the equation fascinating
A. The repetition of a number. B. The way two different numbers are equal.
C. The question the teacher raised. D. The difference between the two numbers.
26. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “paralleled” in paragraph 6
A. Measured. B. Composed. C. Mirrored. D. Influenced.
27. What is a suitable title for the text
A. The Perfect Equation B. Numbers Build Equations
C. An Attractive Question D. Words Outperform Numbers
C
Drought is an increasing problem in our warming world. All continents have been experiencing more extended periods without rain, leading to forest fires and poor crop growth. Consequently, people are looking at cloud seeding to solve the problem — a method of encouraging precipitation （降水） by sending small particles of certain chemicals into clouds.
Cloud-seeding expert Arlen Huggins has been studying its effectiveness. “My earliest experience was to use cloud seeding to reduce the amount of hail （冰雹） in northeast Colorado. We didn’t have any luck with that, but we had success later on in increasing snowfall in Utah. Now, the focus is shifting towards increasing rainfall from summer clouds, which is far more unpredictable.” said he.
The problem is that it’s pretty hard to know whether precipitation resulted directly from cloud seeding. It might have rained or snowed anyway. Even if you practice cloud seeding in one place and don’t in another, it’s impossible to know for sure what caused the precipitation. “As cloud seeding is expensive and its effectiveness uncertain, its usefulness is still a matter of opinion,” says Katja Friedrich, a researcher of University of Colorado.
Additionally, it’s not during foggy and snowy conditions that people think of increasing the chance of rainfall. When a country is hit by drought, then cloud seeding isn’t an option due to the lack of clouds. During drought, skies tend to be clear with few clouds. The best option to prevent drought is to seed at times of the year when rainfall levels are normal or higher.
There are also environmental issues regarding the impact of cloud seeding. At high levels, the chemicals sent into the clouds can harm humans and other animals, and some studies have found them slightly poisonous. Apart from that, some environmentalists are concerned about the long-term impacts, as there isn’t data on how much those chemicals accumulate in the environment over 10 years.
28. What is the purpose of cloud seeding
A. To increase grain output.
B. To slow down global warming.
C. To reduce chemicals in the air.
D. To deal with dry and rain-free weather.
29. How is Arlen Huggins’ earliest experience in Paragraph 2
A. It’s effective. B. It’s unsuccessful.
C. It’s satisfying. D. It’s fruitful.
30. What is Katja Friedrich’s attitude towards cloud seeding
A. Favourable. B. Opposed.
C. Unclear. D. Doubtful.
31. What can be inferred from the text
A. Drought currently poses the only threat to forests and crops.
B. Rainmaking in any weather will come true in the near future.
C. Researchers now can not tell if rainfall is brought by cloud seeding.
D. Chemicals sent into the clouds will become less poisonous over time.
D
Many economists predict 2024 will be the time shoppers tighten their belts. That doesn’t mean people will stop spending, say retail （零售） analysts. But it will change what they choose to buy. With a slowing job market, global consumers are likely to move away from more high-priced purchases and focus instead on smaller, less expensive treats.
The economic uncertainty means that consumers are becoming more discriminating about their purchases, says Ethan Chermofsky, senior vice president of marketing at intelligence platform Placer. ai. “There are the things we decide are necessary, and then there’s another category of things that aren’t necessary but that we consider affordable luxuries, he says. This desire for these “affordable luxuries” is common in difficult economic times. Some economists refer to the phenomenon as the “lipstick index”: a small economic increase led by budget-minded consumers seeking out relatively affordable splurges （挥霍）, like small cosmetics （化妆品）.
Analysts at Deloitte say consumers will spend on little luxuries like specialty coffees and snacks as well. Additionally, stressed-out shoppers are prioritizing small splurge purchases for wellness and personal care.
As retailers see shoppers turning to little luxuries, they’re offering more and more of them. Target, for example, has staked a flag in what they refer to as “affordable joy”, which includes a select ion of self-care and cosmetic products, along with wellness-centric beauty products. Beyond diversifying their offerings, stores are also bringing in luxury-feeling products at lower price points to appeal to more consumers.
Ethan says not every shopper will shift their spending to little luxuries-but even those who are still longing for the “must-haves” of social media will also look to get a deal. They want the feeling of purchasing lower-priced affordable treats. To get these goods, shoppers are likely to tap into the re-sale market for designer items at a more reasonable price. They want things that make them feel good about themselves-they just want to do it without breaking the bank.
32. What can affordable luxuries be
A. Inexpensive daily necessities. B. High-end products.
C. Reasonably-priced designer items. D. High-priced purchases.
33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The strategies retailers use. B. The joy businesses offer.
C. The competition stores face. D. The products consumers buy.
34. What do most shoppers seek according to Ethan
A. Social-media deals. B. World-famous brands.
C. Second-hand bargains. D. Budget-friendly pleasures.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Lipstick Index: Where Does It Lead Us
B. Must-have Treats: A Future Spending Trend
C. Affordable Joy: Will We Fall Into The Trap
D. Little Luxuries: A Driving Force Behind Consumption

When we were finally dismissed from the last class of the day, the students streamed out of the classrooms. It was another boring day after school. I dragged my feet home as I sighed. Yet another uneventful day, I thought. Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse.
The lift lobby （电梯间） of my flat was old and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied over many years. I reached my flat’s lobby, and pressed the lift button and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbour, hobbled （蹒跚） in. She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded old-fashioned dress. I held the lift door open, flashing a friendly smile, and politely greeted her. I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons. She thanked me for being so polite, then we were silent for the rest of the ride.
The lift fell down increasingly fast. There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew slower and slower. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat. Unfortunately, the lift came to an abrupt stop at the fifth floor. I pressed the buttons hard several times, but it was of no help. The lights on the buttons had gone out. It soon dawned on me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical （歇斯底里）.
“We will never get out!” she cried with her face pale. It had become a colourless mask. I had no time to lose. I pressed the bell in the lift immediately. The sound was surely deafening, but what other choice did I have Mrs Lim burst into tears. I tried my very best to comfort her, telling her that everything would be all right and that we needed to find out how to get out safely. Mrs Lim began having trouble breathing, and I immediately helped her sit down and loosened her collar.

1-5. ACBCB 6-10. ABCAC 11-15. BABCA 16-20. ABAAB
21. B 22. A 23. D
【解析】本文是一篇应用文。文章详细说明了在Wasatch- Cache国家森林内进行电影拍摄所需的许可申请流程、费用结构以及注意事项。
24. D 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是作者在数学课上学了一个等式后的一些感悟。
24. 推理判断题。根据第一段“I used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves.（我曾经相信，只有语言才能捕捉到人类灵魂的本质。文学作品包含了如此独特的故事，它们塑造了我们看待世界的方式。文字构成了我们试图揭示的问题，以及这些问题本身的答案）”可推知，在第一段作者主要强调了语言的表达力量，故选D。
25. 推理判断题。根据第四段“There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.（这个方程式神秘而迷人。左边是不变的、客观的：里面有一个没有尽头的数字。右边是无穷无尽的东西，数字无限重复。然而，不知怎么的，这两个相反的东西被一个等号连接起来了）”可知，作者觉得这个等式很迷人，因为数字虽然不同，但是却被等号连接起来了。由此推知，让作者觉得这个等式迷人的是两个不同的数相等的方式。故选B。
26. 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear. The concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death.（等式的左边表示有时候生命本身是如此的不可改变，如此的清晰。你出生的日期和你死亡的日期的具体整数。但是生与死之间有一段距离）”可知，作者躺在床上思考的是这个等式与我们的存在是多么相似，划线词paralleled的意思是“与……十分相似”，和mirrored意思相近，故选C。
27. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段“My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation （等式）: 1= 0.9, which could also be expressed as 1=0.99999.... repeating itself without ever ending.（我的老师给出了另一个等式：1= 0.9，也可以表示为1=0.99999……不断重复，没有尽头）”和第五段“There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.（这个等式神秘而迷人。左边是不变的、客观的：里面有一个没有尽头的数字。右边是无穷无尽的东西，数字无限重复。然而，不知怎么的，这两个相反的东西被一个等号连接起来了）”可知，本文主要讲的是作者在数学课上学了一个等式后的一些感悟。由此可知，最恰当的标题是A选项“The Perfect Equation（完美的等式）”。故选A。
28. D 29. B 30. D 31. C
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讨论了干旱成为全球变暖环境下的一个严重问题，而“人工降雨”被认为是解决干旱问题的一种方法。然而，人工降雨的效果难以确定，并且存在环境问题和水资源分配问题。因此，虽然云雾处理可能会在一些条件下对缓解干旱有一定益处，但其实用性和可行性仍有待讨论。
28. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Drought is an increasing problem in our warming world. All continents have been experiencing more extended periods without rain, leading to forest fires and poor crop growth. Consequently, people are looking at cloud seeding to solve the problem—a method of encouraging precipitation（降水） by sending small particles of certain chemicals into clouds.（在我们日益变暖的世界里，干旱是一个日益严重的问题。所有大陆都经历了更长时间的无雨期，导致森林火灾和作物生长不良。因此，人们正在研究人工增雨来解决这个问题——一种通过将某些化学物质的小颗粒送入云层来鼓励降水的方法。）”可知，人工降雨是为了能应对干旱无雨的天气。故选D项。
29. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“My earliest experience was to use cloud seeding to reduce the amount of hail （冰雹） in northeast Colorado. We didn’t have any luck with that, but we had success later on in increasing snowfall in Utah. Now, the focus is shifting towards increasing rainfall from summer clouds, which is far more unpredictable.（我最早的经验是在科罗拉多州东北部使用播云来减少冰雹的数量。我们运气不好，但后来我们在犹他州的降雪量不断增加的情况下取得了成功。现在，焦点正转向夏季云层带来的降雨量增加，这一点更不可预测。）”可知， Arlen Huggins 最初是想用人工降雨的方法来减少美国科罗拉多州北部下冰雹的数量，遗憾的是运气不好，即失败了。故选B项。
30. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“As cloud seeding is expensive and its effectiveness uncertain, its usefulness is still a matter of opinion,（由于播云成本高昂，其有效性也不确定，因此其有用性仍有待商榷，）”可知， Katja Friedrich认为人工降雨的做法代价高且效果不确定，是有待商榷的，即对其是持怀疑态度的。故选D项。
31. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The problem is that it’s pretty hard to know whether precipitation resulted directly from cloud seeding. It might have rained or snowed anyway. Even if you practice cloud seeding in one place and don’t in another, it’s impossible to know for sure what caused the precipitation. （问题是，很难知道降水是否直接来自云层播种。不管怎样，可能已经下雨或下雪了。即使你在一个地方练习播云，而在另一个地方不练习，也不可能确切地知道是什么导致了降水。）”可知，研究人员现在无法判断降雨是否是由云层播种带来的。故选C项。
32. C 33. A 34. D 35. A
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释是什么“口红指数”以及出现这种现象的原因。
32. 细节理解题。根据第二段“This desire for these “affordable luxuries” is common in difficult economic times. Some economists refer to the phenomenon as the “lipstick index”: a small economic increase led by budget-minded consumers seeking out relatively affordable splurges （挥霍）, like small cosmetics （化妆品）.（这种对这些“负担得起的奢侈品”的渴望在经济困难时期很常见。一些经济学家将这种现象称为“口红指数”：由精打细算的消费者寻找相对负担得起的奢侈品（比如小化妆品）导致的小幅经济增长）”可知，负担得起的奢侈品是指价格合理的名牌商品。故选C。
33. 主旨大意题。根据第四段“As retailers see shoppers turning to little luxuries, they’re offering more and more of them. Target, for example, has staked a flag in what they refer to as “affordable joy”, which includes a select ion of self-care and cosmetic products, along with wellness-centric beauty products. Beyond diversifying their offerings, stores are also bringing in luxury-feeling products at lower price points to appeal to more consumers.（当零售商看到消费者转向小奢侈品时，他们提供了越来越多的小奢侈品。例如，塔吉特在他们所谓的“负担得起的快乐”上打了个旗号，其中包括一系列精选的自我护理和化妆品，以及以健康为中心的美容产品。除了使产品多样化，商店还推出了价格较低的奢侈品，以吸引更多的消费者）”可知，第四段的主要内容是零售商使用的策略。故选A。
34. 理解理解题。根据最后一段“Ethan says not every shopper will shift their spending to little luxuries-but even those who are still longing for the “must-haves” of social media will also look to get a deal. They want the feeling of purchasing lower-priced affordable treats.（伊桑说，并不是每个购物者都会把他们的消费转移到小奢侈品上，但即使是那些仍然渴望获得社交媒体“必需品”的人，也会希望得到优惠。他们想要的是购买价格更低、负担得起的食物的感觉）”可知，根据伊森的说法，大多数购物者都在寻找预算友好的乐趣。故选D。
35. 主旨大意题。根据第二段“This desire for these “affordable luxuries” is common in difficult economic times. Some economists refer to the phenomenon as the “lipstick index”: a small economic increase led by budget-minded consumers seeking out relatively affordable splurges （挥霍）, like small cosmetics （化妆品）.（这种对这些“负担得起的奢侈品”的渴望在经济困难时期很常见。一些经济学家将这种现象称为“口红指数”：由精打细算的消费者寻找相对负担得起的奢侈品（比如小化妆品）导致的小幅经济增长）”结合文章主要解释是什么“口红指数”以及出现这种现象的原因。可知，A选项“口红指数：它将把我们引向何方？”最符合文章标题。故选A。

【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述在墨西哥狼濒临灭绝的情况下，科学家通过不断完善的计划来改善现状。
36. 根据上文“In the forest of New Mexico, scientists are carrying two ten-day-old Mexican wolf pups （幼崽） riding in a backpack, searching for a Mexican wolf pair that has just given birth to six pups.（在新墨西哥州的森林里，科学家们背着两只10天大的墨西哥狼崽，寻找一对刚刚生下六只幼崽的墨西哥狼）”可知，上文提到科学家背着两只刚出生的狼崽，而下文特别是第三段讲述如何将圈养的狼崽送到野生狼崽中，让野生墨西哥狼接受并收养，但是狼爸和狼妈并不知道这情况。故G选项“狼妈妈和狼爸爸不知道，但他们即将再收养两只！”符合语境，故选G。
37. 根据上文“Mexican wolves were extinct in the USA by the 1970s, but there was a plan to bring them back. The first step was to trap five wild Mexican wolves and breed them with two caged ones. In 1998, the first caged-born adult Mexican wolves were released into forests.（到20世纪70年代，墨西哥狼在美国已经灭绝，但有一个将它们带回来的计划。第一步是捕获五只野生墨西哥狼，并与两只关在笼子里的狼一起繁殖。1998年，第一批在笼子里出生的成年墨西哥狼被放归森林）”以及后文“If animals have to pair up with family members, then their pups will have unhealthy genes, making them sick.（如果动物必须与家庭成员配对，那么它们的幼崽就会有不健康的基因，使它们生病）”可知，本段讲述科学家的第一个计划：通过野生的墨西哥狼和圈养的狼繁殖出第一只圈养的狼崽，并将其放生到森林中。再看下文，如果一直是近亲繁殖，会产生不健康的基因，导致疾病。可以看出该计划有一点的成效，但是仍有隐患。故E选项“种群数量缓慢增长，但科学家们仍然很担心”符合语境，故选E。
38. 根据本段内容“Let wild wolves adopt caged-born pups-that’s how these two pups end up in backpacks. While the adult wolves are out hunting, the scientists gently place the pups with their new brothers and sisters. They rub the caged-born and wild pups together, ever letting them pee （小便） on each other to mix their smells!（让野狼收养在笼子里出生的小狼崽——这就是为什么这两只小狼崽最后会被装进背包的原因。当成年狼外出狩猎时，科学家们轻轻地把幼狼和它们的新兄弟姐妹放在一起。他们把笼子里出生的幼崽和野生的幼崽揉在一起，甚至让它们互相撒尿来混合它们的气味！）”可以看出，科学家执行了另一个计划，特别是最后一句“This result makes the scientists optimistic about the plan.（这一结果使科学家们对该计划持乐观态度）”提到对该计划还是很乐观的，因此段首句应该是科学家想出了一个新计划。故B 选项“所以专家们想出了一个新计划”符合语境，故选B。
39. 根据上文“They rub the caged-born and wild pups together, ever letting them pee （小便） on each other to mix their smells!（他们把笼子里出生的幼崽和野生的幼崽揉在一起，甚至让它们互相撒尿来混合它们的气味！）”可知，上句讲述科学家通过将野生和圈养狼崽相互摩擦和小便来混合它们的气味。结合下句“This result makes the scientists optimistic about the plan.（这一结果使科学家们对该计划持乐观态度）”可以看出该做法是有效的，推测圈养狼崽被接受了。故F选项“在那之后，狼父母不会介意照顾新的幼崽”符合语境，故选F。
40. 根据前句“The idea is that the caged pups will grow up and breed with wild wolves.（他们的想法是，这些被关在笼子里的幼崽将与野生狼一起长大并繁殖）”讲该计划的理念是让野生和圈养的狼崽一起长大并繁殖后代，可知，本句说明这么做的目的就是让健康的基因传递下去。故D选项“通过这种方式，他们健康的基因将被传递下去”符合语境，故选D。
41. C 42. B 43. C 44. B 45. A 46. D 47. A 48. B 49. D 50. C 51. C 52. B 53. A 54. A 55. D

56. 考查冠词。句意：甘肃省中医院的医生最近收到了一封来自美国医生的感谢信。letter是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，thank-you是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
57. 考查不定式。句意：为了学习如何将中医与西方麻醉技术相结合，Yurasek和同事Robert Fischer于2018年9月访问了该医院几周。根据语境，句子表示“为了学习如何将中医与西方麻醉技术相结合，Yurasek和同事Robert Fischer于2018年9月访问了该医院几周”，空格处用不定式表目的，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填To learn。

【答案示例】
Last weekend I, together with my friend, participated in a voluntary activity in a local mountain village. During the voluntary activity, we were first shown around the village and then given a lecture about the elderly living there, their situations and the care they could receive. Finally we were allowed to care for some of them and had a heart-to-heart talk.
Through this unforgettable activity I realize that the elderly are lonely sometimes, who are badly in need of someone to chat with. Thus, as children, we should spare more time to accompany them. What we should do is give them more care instead of more money.

Several minutes passed, but no help came. The air inside the lift grew stale, and panic started to set in. Mrs Lim's condition was worsening, and I felt a sense of helplessness creeping over me. I tried to stay calm and think of a way out, but the situation seemed dire. The silence was deafening, broken only by Mrs Lim’s labored breathing and occasional sobs. Time seemed to stretch on endlessly as we waited for a miracle.
Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door. Relief flooded through me as I realized help had finally arrived. The sound of tools clanging against the door signaled their efforts to rescue us. Moments later, the door was pried open, and fresh air rushed in. We were safe. Mrs Lim was quickly attended to by the paramedics, and I was filled with gratitude for their swift response. As we were escorted out of the lift, I couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of appreciation for the fragility of life and the importance of helping others in times of need.
