A
From the time human beings began to draw them, maps have helped people find their way around their environments. But maps can show us many things, not just which direction to go. They show the path of history, the earth’s shape development of mathematics, and the progress of technology.
One of the oldest-known land maps is an almost 1,600-year-old tablet from Southwest Asia. The map shows a circle of land that is divided by a river and surrounded by ocean. Triangles on the map indicate eight different regions. And the map’s text describes legendary beasts and heroes that were important to the ancient people of the area. Around AD 150, a Greek scientist drew north-south and east-west lines on a map. This addition applies mathematics to mapping and was an early attempt to show the earth’s shape on a flat piece of paper. Maps gradually became much more detailed as new regions were explored and put down on paper. Also, mathematical and astronomical advances helped to perfect the world map to what we know and love today!
Now that you know a little about the early history of maps, let’s learn some fun facts.
East at the Top
These days, most maps feature north at the top. However, during the Middle Ages, most maps had east at the top. This was done to point in the direction of the morning sun.
Puzzle Maps
When printed maps became available to the general population in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, not everyone could understand them. In fact, the first jigsaw puzzles were designed as practice maps for eighteenth-century geography classes!
Fake Places
Mapmakers need to make sure that their work is not copied by others. To protect their work, many mapmakers add made-up towns or streets to their maps. Only the original mapmaker would know about the fake entry.
Modern Technology
Today, digital maps and GPS technology have revolutionized the way we explore our world. With the touch of a screen, we can see our exact location, plan routes, and even view real-time traffic updates.
21. What is a feature of the nearly 1600-year-old map
A. It has triangles representing different districts. B. It demonstrates a rectangular landmass.
C. It displays a land surrounded by a river. D. It is the oldest map in Southwest Asia.
22. Which of the pictures best shows the modern form of the Greek scientist’s addition to the map
A. B.
C D.
23. What does the passage intend to tell readers
A. The development of mapping technology. B. The significance of maps throughout history.
C. The history and interesting facts about maps. D. Some map-making tricks and techniques.
B
For as long as I can remember, my body and I have shared a relationship of discontent. Growing up, I was skinnier than the other kids and at five I was told I wasn’t attractive. A “friendly” neighborhood aunt advised that if I wanted to find a good husband in the future — I must put on some weight. After all, no one wants a bag of bones. As the years rolled by, mean comments about my skeletal frame continued to pour in. But no matter how much I ate, I stayed thin for years until adolescence. Then I started putting on weight almost immediately. I remember feeling happy as I began to fill out. However, my joy didn’t last long.
I was thirteen when I was first called fat. Friends and neighbours would make jokes on my big size. As I entered my late teens, I had completely lost confidence in my body and, subsequently, in myself. Having failed to live up to conventional beauty standards, I was convinced that if I wanted to be loved, I needed to offer more, doing anything to please everyone around.
I entered adulthood thinking I wasn’t “enough” — an idea that was seeded not only by the fact that “skinny” is celebrated, but also by the language associated with accounts of losing weight — self-improvement, discipline — all virtues. Being fat quickly categorizes you as lazy and undisciplined. Consumed by thoughts of the way my body looked, I didn’t notice the other ways my body needed attention. Actually, I developed a rare disease and later I had two surgeries.
I was always made to feel that my weight was the root of a lot of problems in my life; I have learnt this is not true. After a lot of self-reflection and some professional help, I realized I never learnt to like myself. While two decades of self-hatred cannot be undone overnight, I have taken first steps to acceptance.
I am now much lighter than before, in body and mind. There are days I find voices on social media saying I am too fat to be loved or to be worthy, but I am learning not to focus on that thought for long. As long as I like myself, just the way I am, opinions at the end of the day are just water off a duck’s back.

A. She suffered verbal abuse from people around her.
B She became a people-pleaser to restore confidence.
C. She always had low self-esteem caused by obesity.
D. She was overwhelmed by contradictory beauty standards.
25. Why did the author think she wasn’t “enough”
A. She lacked self-discipline. B. She failed to celebrate “skinny”.
C. She didn’t give enough attention to health. D. She was labelled negatively for her weight.
26. What impact did seeking professional help have on the author
A. It reduced her weight. B. It led to a new mindset.
C. It ended her self-hatred. D. It caused more confusion.
27. Which is the most suitable title for the text

C
Human beings eat a lot of fish. Globally, seafood is a $500 billion industry and consumption has more than doubled in the last half a century. But the oceans are not an unlimited resource, and seafood consumers are increasingly concerned about overfishing, marine pollution, and the fishing industry’s poor human rights record.
Netflix’s hit anti-fishing documentary Seaspiracy shocked many people into rethinking their seafood consumption. Although some marine scientists question the film’s claims that there is no such thing as a sustainable fishing industry and we could run out of fish in 2048, there is no denying that the film does have its impact, with quite a few viewers cutting down on fish or cutting it out altogether.
With more people than ever turning vegan, meat-free meat is now big business. Fish-free fish seems to follow. Vegan seafood products are found on supermarket shelves mimicking dishes from fish and chips to canned tuna. Fake fish currently accounts for only about 1% of the entire alternative-meat industry. But what began as a tiny cottage industry serving a booming market is expanding rapidly. In 2018, London’s Sutton & Sons became the first UK chippy to offer vegan fish and chips. Since then, the world has seen a surge in demand for fish-free foodstuffs. In 2017, only 29 companies in the world produced alt-seafood products. Now there are more than 80, with seafood giants and multinationals moving in to claim their territory.
Most of the fake marine life on sale now is vegetable or fungi-based. Seafoods’ unique structures and distinctive flavors are difficult to veganize convincingly. But by experimenting with new recipes and technologies, it is possible to simulate its tastes and textures with varying degrees of success. Much of the innovation involves repurposing plants in unexpected ways. For instance, Ahimi, made by US firm Ocean Hugger Food are tomato-based sashimi (生鱼片) substitutes. Meanwhile, California’s Sophie’s Kitchen uses a fibrous Asian root vegetable to create “tuna”, French manufacturer Odontella SAS offers artificial smoked salmon made from tofu and peas and Swedish retailer Ikea sells vegan caviar (鱼子酱) made from seaweed.
Most fake fish products, of course, are unlikely to fool anyone. For those who never mind their smelling and tasting like no creature that ever swims in any sea, they are great. But for some consumers, only genuine fish flesh will do. Luckily, technology promises to offer an ocean-friendly alternative. Lab-grown fish meat, cultivated in a vessel called a bioreactor, promises the real thing without animal cruelty or the environmental toll of industrial fishing. Some agriculture companies are already producing lab-grown salmon, bluefin tuna, shrimp, lobster and crab. But it’s a slow, expensive process and businesses are still figuring out how to produce seafood profitably.
28. What do we know about Seaspiracy
A. It has aroused a heated debate among marine scientists.
B. It’s a popular documentary advocating seafood consumption.
C. It calls for a sustainable fishing industry as fish is running out.
D. It has noticeable effects on the viewers’ consuming habits.
29. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph
A. The popularity of fake fish is limited to a tiny part of the world.
B. Fake fish industry is developing fast globally due to growing demand.
C. Meat-free meat is now big business with more people turning vegan.
D. Seafood giants and multinationals are producing fish-free foodstuffs.
30. What does the underlined word “simulate” in the fourth paragraph probably mean
A. replace B. imitate C. uncover D. increase
31. According to the passage, who is most likely to buy lab-grown salmon
A. A millionaire who enjoys fish-free foodstuffs.
B. A vegan who is in favor of alt-seafood products.
C. A fish-flesh lover who cares for the environment.
D. An environmentalist who is picky about his diet.
D
Active noise control technology is used by noise-canceling headphones to minimize or completely block out outside noise. However, despite the many advancements in technology, people still don’t have much control over which sounds their headphones block out and which they let pass.
Now, deep learning algorithms have been developed by a group of academics at the University of Washington that enable users to select which noises to filter through their headphones in real-time. The system has been named “semantic hearing” by its creators.
The Al-powered headphones remove all background noise by streaming recorded audio to a smartphone that is linked to the devices. Through this process, the headphone users can choose to strengthen or cancel out 20 types of sounds, using voice commands or a smartphone app. The headphones will then only let through the sounds that have been chosen by the wearer.
“The challenge is that the sounds headphone wearers hear need to syn (同步) with their visual senses. This means the neural algorithms must process sounds in under a hundredth of a second.” said senior author Shyam Gollakota, a UW professor.
Due to this time constraint, the semantic hearing system chooses a process that relies on noises communicated on a device like a linked smartphone. Furthermore, in order for humans to continue to effectively experience sounds in their environment, the system needs to maintain these delays because sounds coming from different directions enter people’s ears at different times.
Trials were undertaken by the researchers in a variety of settings. The semantic hearing system was able to isolate target sounds, while at the same time removing background noise. In terms of the system’s audio output for the desired sounds, 22 participants gave it an average rating higher than they assigned to the original noise recordings.
There were, however, a few disadvantages: the AI-powered system occasionally had trouble recognizing sounds that were too similar. The researchers said that the system could produce better results if its machine learning models were trained on more real world data.
32. Which of the following is True about deep learning algorithms
A. It could promote users’ listening ability. B. It could help users remove unwanted noise.
C. It aims to stop people entering noisy areas. D. It has been widely applied in communication.
33. What should the neural algorithms do according to Shyam Gollakota
A. Carefully select the headphone users. B. Process data without noticeable delay.
C. Get rid of the possible time constraint. D. Improve the quality of smartphones.
34. What did the researchers find about the system in the trials
A. It could improve individual listening experience.
B. It could help them recognize participants’ voices.
C. It has more disadvantages than the advantages.
D. It’s suitable to strengthen the background noise.
35. What is the passage mainly about
A. The semantic hearing system still has some drawbacks.
B. The semantic hearing system can recognize human speech.
C. AI noise-canceling headphones let you choose what you hear.
D. AI noise-canceling headphones present a commercial version.

67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West. We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Upon Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm,” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper,” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track (足迹；踪迹) so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine (松树) trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

【67题答案】
【答案】Paragraph 1
Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. Dad and I found it was so cute that we decided to run after it. After a while, we were completely lost in the forest. There was nothing left in our sight but the trees. “We may not be able to make it back to the farm house in time for supper.” I thought to myself. After a series of useless attempts to find a way out, we felt hungry and tired.
Paragraph 2
We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. We got stuck in the forest. And an unexpected shower added to the difficulty of us in finding a way home, for all the tracks we had made disappeared because of the rain. I was almost breaking down when my father said, “Don’t worry, my son. I remember there is a river near the farm house. Find the river and we will be back home.” Finally, we found the river and got back to the house along it. Needless to say, we ate a late dinner.
