While Matt Damon relied on potatoes cultivated in biowaste to survive in the hit film The Martian, the
researchers say it is a humble desert moss（藓类） that might prove crucial to establishing life on Mars.
Scientists in China say they have found Syntrichia caninervis — a moss found in Antarctic and desert — is able to
bear Mars - like conditions, including drought, high levels of radiation and extreme cold.
The moss was able to regenerate under normal growth conditions after spending up to five years at - 80℃ and
up to 30 days at - 196℃, and after exposure to gamma rays, with doses of around500Gy even promoting new
growth. The team then created a set-up that had similar pressures, temperatures, gases and UV radiation to Mars. It
found the moss survived in this Mars-like environment, and was able to regenerate under normal growth conditions,
even after seven days of exposure.
“These experiments represent an important first step, but they do not show that the moss could be a significant
source of oxygen under Martian conditions, nor do they show that the desert moss could reproduce in the Martian
context,” McDaniel said. “Implying that moss, or any other pioneering species, is ready to terraform（行星地球化）
Mars, or any other outer planet, is an overstatement.” Zupanska added.
Dr. Wiger of Wageningen University, also raised concerns, including that temperatures on the red planet rarely
got above freezing, making outdoor plant growth impossible, while the new study did not use Mars - like soil. “The
mosses were treated under Mars circumstances for a maximum of several days and then regrown under Earth
conditions on sand,” he said. “This, of course, doesn’t show at all they can grow under Mars conditions.”
However, Prof. Edward Guinan of Villanova University in the US described the study as impressive. “This
extremotolerant moss could promise to be a pioneer plant for Mars colonization,” he said, although he noted the
moss would need water to grow.
“We have a lot of things to do,” he said. “But this lowly desert moss offers hope for making small portions of
Mars habitable for humankind in the future.”
12. What does the author want to illustrate by mentioning the potatoes
A. The potatoes played a crucial role in the film.
B. The moss led to survival of the potatoes on Mars.
C. The moss may survive on Mars like these potatoes.
D. The success of the film resulted from the plot about potatoes.
13. What can be implied from what McDaniel and Zupanska said
A. The moss has a long way to be a Martian plant.
B. It is unlikely that the earth species can grow on Mars.
C. The experiments about the moss were a complete success.
D. They will research into reproducing the moss in the Martian context.
14. Which one is right about the characteristic of the moss in the text
A. Resistant to water. B. Adaptable to Martian soil.
C. Capable of producing oxygen on Mars. D. Regenerative under Earth condition.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Can Mars actually become a second Earth
B. Can scientists create a set-up similar to Mars
C. Can a moss become a pioneer living on Mars
D. Can researchers make it to Mars colonization

A new study has revealed that a prehistoric sea cow was the target of two different predators (捕食动物) — an
ancient crocodile and a tiger shark, providing rare insights into the complex food chains from millions of years ago.
The research, conducted by an international team of scientists and published in the Journal of Vertebrate
Paleontology, uncovers one of the few known instances where a single prey (猎物) was attacked by many
predators.
The sea cow, belonging to the extinct group Culebratherium, was first attacked by a crocodile. Evidence then
shows that after the initial attack, the sea cow’s remains were searched by a tiger shark, a tooth of which was found
near the unlucky animal’s neck.
“Have you seen the Batman movie There is a scene where he and Alfred are shooting bullets to try and figure
out which specific type of bullet they are trying to find, ” said Benites-Palomino, lead author of the research. “Our
research was conducted in exactly the same way. We have these experiments in the wild where predators are
attacking their prey, and then afterwards we try to compare which is the best scene for what we’re finding there.”
The find is particularly significant as it adds to the limited fossil record of multiple predators interacting with a
single prey. Such interactions are common in today’s ecosystems, but are rarely documented in the fossil record,
making this discovery an important piece of the puzzle in understanding ancient food webs.
“We have been unsure as to which animals would have served this purpose as a food source for multiple
predators. Our previous research has identified sperm whales searched by several shark species, and this new
research highlights the importance of sea cows within the food chain, ” Benites- Palomino said in a statement.
The digging, directed by Marcelo Sanchez- Villagra, head of the Palaeontological Institute and Museum in
Zurich, Switzerland, was both challenging and rewarding. The site was initially discovered by a local farmer who
spotted unusual rocks, inspiring the team to investigate further and eventually unearth the sea cow fossils.
12. What do we know about the prehistoric sea cow
A. It reached the top of food chains. B. It is thought to have complex teeth.
C. It belongs to an endangered species. D. It was attacked by two different animals.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The scene of animal fights. B. The method of the research.
C. The introduction of a movie. D. The danger of the experiments.
14. What does the importance of the study lie in
A. Challenging the current ecosystems. B. Offering insights into ancient food webs.
C. Clarifying the misunderstanding of sea cows. D. Figuring out the link between man and nature.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Batman Movie Inspired a Research B. A Puzzle in Complex Ancient Food Chains
C. Shark and Crocodile Ate Unlucky Sea Cow D. An Important Biological Discovery of a Farmer

A fixed mindset of interest can harm creativity and innovation. If people believe they are limited to only a few
particular interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections
across different dimensions. ____16____ Those who with a growth mindset are also more likely to be creative
when solving problems.
____17____ In June, we published findings from an intervention that succeeded in that aim. In two studies
involving more than 700 first- year liberal arts undergraduates, we began by assessing how our participants saw
themselves. The majority held strong interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences. ____18____
We then randomly assigned students to either our intervention or a study skills module. Our intervention
included reading and reflective writing activities that helped students think about interests and passions as
cultivated rather than as simply found and fixed. ____19____ The study skills module had a similar set of exercises
but with an emphasis on building classic skills, such as time management and active learning.
These students were required to take at least one math and science course during their first year. That meant
we could check how the intervention may have influenced their perspectives on math and science.
By the end of the year, students who had received the intervention were more interested in their required
math and science courses than those who received the study skills module —— and this boost was particularly
apparent among students who initially reported that they were not a “math- and- science person”. ____20____
These students became more skilled in math and science and grew into interdisciplinary (跨学科的) scholars.
A. So can a growth mindset of interest be taught
B. How can a growth mindset of interest be cultivated
C. Meanwhile, a growth mindset of interest comes with many advantages.
D. Moreover, most reported that they were not a “math- and- science person”
E. They also earned better grades in courses than those receiving the study skills module.
F. However, a growth mindset of interest can fuel people's further exploration to different fields.
G. For example, students read an article stating the benefits of viewing interests as developable.

Tipping points, also known as critical transitions (转变), are mathematical cliff-edges influencing everything
in our life. The financial crisis of 2007-09 is often described as one. So is the moment that covid-19 went global.
Anyone can spot a tipping point after it’s been crossed. But it is extremely difficult to spot them before they
happen.
Computer scientists in China now show that artificial intelligence (AI) can help. In a recent study, the
researchers accurately predicted the beginning of tipping points in complicated systems with the help of
machine-learning algorithms (算法). It could help solve real-world problems, such as predicting floods and power
failure.
To simplify their calculations, the team reduced all such problems to ones taking place within a large network
of interacting nodes (节点), the individual elements within a large system. In a financial system, for example, a
node might represent a company. The team then designed two artificial neural (神经的) networks to analyze such
systems.
To train their model, the researchers firstly turned to simplified theoretical systems in which tipping points are
known to occur. Once the model could predict these transitions, it was applied to the real-world problem of how
tropical forests turn to savannah (稀树草原). This has happened many times on Earth, but the details remain
mysterious. The researchers first analyzed the data from three central African regions in the past 20 years and
identified the tipping points. They then wanted to see if training their algorithm on data from two of these regions
could enable it to correctly predict a transition point in the third. It could.
The team then asked the algorithm to identify the conditions that drove the shift. The answer was, as expected,
down to annual rainfall. But the AI was able to go further. The AI detailed that a slight decrease in rainfall from 1,
800 mm to 1, 630 mm led to a minor 5% drop in tree cover, but a further decrease to 1, 620 mm caused a
significant 30% drop. This would be a textbook critical transition. And by predicting it from the raw data, the
researchers say they have broken new ground in this field.
The team are now trying to discover what specific features the Al identifies to make these predictions, which
could help better predict everything from infectious outbreaks to the next stock market crash.
12. How did the team simplify the calculations
A. By limiting the problems within a large network.
B. By focusing on the individual elements in a network.
C. By transforming the problems into ones in a network.
D. By reducing the number of problems in each network.
13. Why was the algorithm trained on data from two central African regions
A. To improve its ability of prediction. B. To check its analysis of the data.
C. To perfect its solutions to problems. D. To test the accuracy of its prediction.
14. What breakthrough did the AI make in the study
A. It revealed the idea that tipping points are predictable.
B. It identified a critical transition point in the tree cover.
C. It confirmed previous theories about rainfall and tree cover.
D. It predicted the future expansion of savannahs in central Africa.
15. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage
A. The Analysis of Rainfall: AI and Tree Cover
B. Spotting Tipping Points: A Big Challenge for AI
C. Machine Learning: Predicting Critical Moment
D. Critical Transitions: The Key to Making Predictions

Sometimes painful experiences are just painful. And that's OK, too.
A large body of research shows that ideas such as growth mindset, gratitude and understanding meaning of
struggle can promote wellbeing. However, there are times when what you are going through is so painful that trying
to follow such ideas holds back, rather than helps, your healing(愈合). ____16____
It turns out that in times of great pain, our wisest choice is not to find meaning or growth in our experience.
____17____ Pain and suffering are often followed by meaning, but sometimes that meaning comes days, weeks or
even years after the experience.
For particularly challenging or painful experiences, you may need time to make an appropriate response.
____18____ If you are going to experience growth and meaning, learn to wait patiently.
When you are in the thick of pain, meaning can feel difficult to understand. ____19____ But with time and
distance, meaning often appears, even when you least expect it. The most important thing to do in great suffering is
to release yourself from any expectations altogether. Be patient and be kind to yourself. Seek help and social
support. It's great if you find immediate meaning and growth in your experience. But if not, that's OK too.
____20____
A. Trying to force it usually backfires.
B. It takes great energy to make sense of it
C. Perhaps the real growth is learning to let it be.
D. The result is that you feel worse about yourself.
E. Instead, simply focusing on getting through is enough.

There are functioning steam railways in other countries: tourists in France can go for a ride in Brittany; so can
visitors travelling to the Dandenong Ranges in Australia. But no other country has a heritage railway sector
anywhere near as energetic as the UK’s, where more than 170 services cross around 600 miles of track and call at
460 stations.
Just a few years after the first of these railways opened at Talyllyn in north Wales, in1951, a fictional Welsh
steam engine became the main character in the children’s television serial Ivor the Engine. On lines originally built
for slate quarries (石板采石场), north Wales still has the biggest group of steam railways, but they exist in all four
nations of the UK, typically operating seasonal timetables in tourist areas. These railways are living museums with
stations decorated in period style. Some staff wear costumes too.
Up to 95% of the 18. 5m journeys on heritage railways each year are taken by domestic tourists. They owe
their popularity to a combination of nostalgia (怀旧), enjoyment of the countryside and enthusiasm for the old
engines.
Railways are expensive to run, and the first steam preservation enthusiasts recognised that they would need
volunteers to make their dream of a revival come true. This reliance on volunteers is partly due to cuts in budgets
from local authorities and other funders. But heritage railways are a good example of what can be achieved by a
combined paid and voluntary workforce. As well as the economic contribution that the railways make to rural areas,
there is evidence that volunteering can have beneficial effects on people as well.
The railways will need to respond, like the rest of the society, to environmental policies. The destructive
impact of greenhouse gases is an obvious challenge to a sector that trades on an image of coal-powered transport.
Electric railway engines are being used for maintenance, to bring emissions down, and some railways are active in
wildlife conservation. There will need to be further adaptation down the line. That the railways don’t stand still has
always been part of their appeal especially on rainy days in the summer holidays.
12. How are the UK’s steam railways different from other countries'
A. They are active across the countries. B. They serve as tourist attractions.
C. They are mainly powered by steam. D. They use small amounts of energy.
13. Why does the author mention Ivor the Engine
A. To spread knowledge of the classic serial. B. To introduce the origin of steam engines.
C. To show the popularity of steam railways. D. To share a childhood memory of travelling.
14. What can we infer from paragraph 4
A. Volunteers help to keep heritage railways alive. B. Economic growth depends on individual efforts.
C. People can’t afford to travel by heritage railway. D. Local officials don’t use old means of transport.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards heritage railways
A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful. C. Appreciative. D. Negative.

A recent study in the journal Marine Ecology Progress Series has a great influence when it comes to the
question of how sharks will interact with humans as climate change continues to worsen. It predicts a world where
humans and sharks will encounter more often than the present case.
Contrary to popular media descriptions that speak ill of sharks, humans will not be in that much trouble when
this happens.____16____, in which millions of innocent sharks are the big losers due to human activity beyond
their control.
First, let’s explore why sharks and humans will probably be running into each other’s world more often. One
reason is the field of urban ecology and, specifically, how different species respond when they come across humans.
____17____; think of raccoons (浣熊) that search for food from rubbish and pigeons (鸽子) that stay on statues in
major cities all over the planet. On the other hand, there are urban avoiders, or animals that avoid major cities out of
self-protection; ____18____
The researchers initially believed that sharks would also be urban avoiders. ____19____. Scientists learned
that space use patterns of tracked sharks were consistent with that of urban adapters.
____20____. The reality, however, is that humans have driven sharks to the edge of extinction while shark
attacks on people remain quite rare. Humans are not sharks’ preferred prey (猎物), and the likelihood of increased
human-shark interactions causes far more of a threat to sharks than to humans.
A. Surprisingly, that’s not the case
B. It will instead be a heartbreaking tragedy
C. Humans have a long lasting fear against sharks
D. Therefore, they think the sharks won’t get too close to us
E. Large animals like wolves and mountain lions fall into this category
F. Tigers and lions are so dangerous that we keep them away from our cities
G. If a species thinks its members can get along just great with us, they are known as urban adapters

Plenty of scientific work proves that children, and even adults, who learn sign language, gain the benefits not
only in the ability to communicate with other sign language users, but also in the wider academic world.
Deaf children who learn sign language at an early age tend to perform better academically. This is partly due
to their increased ability to communicate with those around them. However, it is also because sign language is not,
as many people mistakenly think, a system of gestures representing words, but a complete and complex language
system. Thus, children who learn sign language have already learnt about the way language works, which will help
in future studies.
Again, for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language, the academic advantages spill over into
social and cultural ones. Firstly, learning sign language allows the speaker to communicate with a whole new
community of people and gain an understanding of how they communicate within their community. Secondly,
learning a language gives rise to greater confidence for that person, as he is able to communicate with someone
who may struggle to do so. And the skills of language learning can easily be applied to learning other languages but
also to other academic pursuits.
There can be no doubt that learning sign language is a useful endeavour for anyone — whether they are deaf
themselves and live in a house with other deaf people or whether they are non-deaf and do not know anyone who is.
The social, cultural and academic advantages of learning this complex language are diverse and should not be taken
lightly. And, especially with children, learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage
them in the future to do more volunteering and other such work. This means that the non-deaf child can be given a
sense of social responsibility at an early age and taught to embrace all people — not in spite of their differences but
because of them.
29. What is sign language according to the author
A. It is a creative way of expressing ideas. B. It is a complete complex language system.
C. It is a primary language of disabled people. D. It is a system of gestures representing words.
30. What does the underlined word “endeavour” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Experiment. B. Effort. C. Incident. D. Feedback.
31. What quality can a non-deaf child who learns sign language acquire
A. Being competitive. B. Being courageous.
C. Being responsible. D. Being positive.
32. What conclusion can we draw from the text
A. Learning sign language brings people an advantage of finding a future job.
B. The numerous advantages of learning sign language should be taken seriously.
C. Non-deaf children should learn sign language due to the differences of the deaf people .
D. It’s unnecessary for non-deaf person who doesn’t know any deaf people to learn sign language.

Cathy was on holiday in Hong Kong, walking for hours every day, when her foot started to hurt. She hadn’t
fallen or injured herself but it was so painful that she went to see a doctor. She was shocked to discover she had
broken a bone in her foot Worried about her bone strength, Cathy’s doctor sent her for a bone density test. It turned
out Cathy had osteopenia (骨量减少), the early stage to osteoporosis (骨质疏松症). She wasn’t prepared for that.
“I was just shocked. I truly believed osteoporosis was an old person’s disease.”
That’s a common assumption, says Associate Professor Peter Wong, head of rheumatology (风湿病学) at
Westmead Hospital in Sydney. He says it’s also common for people to assume osteoporosis is a condition that
affects only elderly women. But osteoporosis can occur in younger women, though it is less common, and can also
affect men.
So what is osteoporosis In simple terms, Wong says, it’s when you have “thin bones”. Instead of hardy, thick
bones, osteoporotic bones are at increased risk of being broken. You can even break a bone, as Cathy did, without
noticeable injury.
Because osteoporosis is painless, some people discover they have it only after they’ve broken a bone and gone
for a scan. While osteoporosis is common, it’s not unavoidable.
Wong says the best ways to prevent it are by consuming enough calcium and doing regular exercise. He
recommends aiming for 1,000 milligrams of calcium a day. For example, a tub of yogurt or a serve of cheese is a
good amount of calcium.
You also need adequate sunlight exposure, which allows skin to make vitamin D, a crucial component of
strong bones, Smoking can lead to weak bones, so quitting is advised. If you have osteoporosis and have broken a
bone, Wong says there are treatments available that can thicken bones and dramatically reduce your risk of a further
break.
12. According to the first paragraph, why did Cathy go to see a doctor
A. Because she had no idea why her foot hurt so much.
B. Because walking too much made her foot get injured.
C. Because she thought that a bone was broken in her foot.
D. Because she knew that she was going to have osteoporosis.
13. Which of the following statements about osteoporosis is correct
A. It is known that osteoporosis hardly affects younger people.
B. Osteopenia indicates that you are bound to have osteoporosis soon.
C. Everyone may have osteoporosis no matter the age and gender.
D. Osteoporosis makes you more painful when breaking a bone.
14. Which way can help you prevent osteoporosis effectively
A. Sunbathe as much as possible until getting sunburnt.
B. Consume your diet with enough calcium and exercise more.
C. Try a variety of treatments or therapies and find a suitable one.
D. Go to the hospital for a bone density test occasionally.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. What We Get Wrong about Osteoporosis B. Osteoporosis — an Old Person’s Disease
C. The Good Ways to Prevent Osteoporosis D. The Right Attitude Towards Osteoporosis

breathe new life into“注入活力”，位于情态动词 can 后，用动词原形。故填 breathe。
【37 题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：这款游戏以经典名著《西游记》为基础，该名著已被无数次改编成电影或电视剧。which 引导的定语
从句中，adapt“改编”这一动作开始于过去，持续到现在，从句时态应用现在完成时，which 指代前面的“Journey to the West”，
与 adapt“改编”之间是被动关系，从句用现在完成时的被动语态，which 指代前面的“Journey to the West”，视为第三人称单数，
助动词用 has。故填 has been adapted。
【38 题详解】

统。employ“使用”。当状语从句的主语与主句的主语一致时或从句主语为 it，且从句含有 be 动词时，可以省略状语从句的主
语和 be 动词。while 引导的时间状语从句中完整形式为 while it is _____ (employ) cutting-edge technology，故本空用 employing，
与空前的 is 构成现在进行时。故填 employing。
【40 题详解】
考查名词。句意：在使用尖端技术为玩家带来兴奋的同时，它还通过对现实生活中的寺庙和塔楼的描述强调了传统。本空用

【41 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：自发布以来，游客们纷纷涌入山西，参观游戏中出现的古迹。本句谓语为 have been flooding，此处
为非谓语动词，feature 意为“以……为特色”，与 historical sites 之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，用过去分词，作后置定语。故填 featured。
【42 题详解】
考查冠词。句意：在第二层，无头佛灵吉弹奏一个中国传统乐器三弦，唱着“成败、生死，皆非所愿”。此处泛指“一个中国传
统乐器三弦”，且 traditional 以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词 a 修饰。故填 a。
【43 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：尽管它看起来很传统，但新旧之间的这种碰撞实际上创造了一些对所有观众都有吸引力的流行事物。
本空引导限制性定语从句，先行词是 something popular，指物，关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语，且先行词为不定代词，
应用关系代词 that 引导。故填 that。
【44 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：传统文化为我们提供了一种认同感，给了我们所需要的价值观——努力工作、爱家庭、对与错的意
识——让我们过上有意义的生活。live...lives“过……的生活”。本句谓语为 provides，此处为非谓语动词，此处用 live 的不定
式，作目的状语。故填 to live。
【45 题详解】
考查介词。句意：流行文化和现代技术并没有取代传统，而是丰富了这种文化遗产，使其在不失去本质的情况下接触到更广

While Matt Damon relied on potatoes cultivated in biowaste to survive in the hit film The Martian, the
researchers say it is a humble desert moss（藓类） that might prove crucial to establishing life on Mars.
Scientists in China say they have found Syntrichia caninervis — a moss found in Antarctic and desert — is able to
bear Mars - like conditions, including drought, high levels of radiation and extreme cold.
The moss was able to regenerate under normal growth conditions after spending up to five years at - 80℃ and
up to 30 days at - 196℃, and after exposure to gamma rays, with doses of around500Gy even promoting new
growth. The team then created a set-up that had similar pressures, temperatures, gases and UV radiation to Mars. It
found the moss survived in this Mars-like environment, and was able to regenerate under normal growth conditions,
even after seven days of exposure.
“These experiments represent an important first step, but they do not show that the moss could be a significant
source of oxygen under Martian conditions, nor do they show that the desert moss could reproduce in the Martian
context,” McDaniel said. “Implying that moss, or any other pioneering species, is ready to terraform（行星地球化）
Mars, or any other outer planet, is an overstatement.” Zupanska added.
Dr. Wiger of Wageningen University, also raised concerns, including that temperatures on the red planet rarely
got above freezing, making outdoor plant growth impossible, while the new study did not use Mars - like soil. “The
mosses were treated under Mars circumstances for a maximum of several days and then regrown under Earth
conditions on sand,” he said. “This, of course, doesn’t show at all they can grow under Mars conditions.”
However, Prof. Edward Guinan of Villanova University in the US described the study as impressive. “This
extremotolerant moss could promise to be a pioneer plant for Mars colonization,” he said, although he noted the
moss would need water to grow.
“We have a lot of things to do,” he said. “But this lowly desert moss offers hope for making small portions of
Mars habitable for humankind in the future.”
12. What does the author want to illustrate by mentioning the potatoes
A. The potatoes played a crucial role in the film.
B. The moss led to survival of the potatoes on Mars.
C. The moss may survive on Mars like these potatoes.
D. The success of the film resulted from the plot about potatoes.
13. What can be implied from what McDaniel and Zupanska said
A. The moss has a long way to be a Martian plant.
B. It is unlikely that the earth species can grow on Mars.
C. The experiments about the moss were a complete success.
D. They will research into reproducing the moss in the Martian context.
14. Which one is right about the characteristic of the moss in the text
A. Resistant to water. B. Adaptable to Martian soil.
C. Capable of producing oxygen on Mars. D. Regenerative under Earth condition.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Can Mars actually become a second Earth
B. Can scientists create a set-up similar to Mars
C. Can a moss become a pioneer living on Mars
D. Can researchers make it to Mars colonization
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章的主要内容是探讨苔藓是否能成为火星上的先锋生物。
【12 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“While Matt Damon relied on potatoes cultivated in biowaste to survive in the hit film
The Martian, the researchers say it is a humble desert moss（藓类） that might prove crucial to establishing life on
Mars(在热播电影《火星救援》中，马特·达蒙依靠在生物垃圾中种植的土豆生存，而研究人员表示，这是一
种不起眼的沙漠苔藓，可能对在火星上建立生命至关重要”可知，通过提到电影中的土豆，作者想说明苔藓
可能像电影中的土豆一样在火星上生存。故选 C 项。
【13 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““These experiments represent an important first step, but they do not show that the moss
could be a significant source of oxygen under Martian conditions, nor do they show that the desert moss could
reproduce in the Martian context,” McDaniel said. “Implying that moss, or any other pioneering species, is ready to
terraform（行星地球化） Mars, or any other outer planet, is an overstatement.” Zupanska added.( McDaniel 说：“这
些实验代表了重要的第一步，但它们并没有表明苔藓在火星条件下可能是一个重要的氧气来源，也没有表
明沙漠苔藓可以在火星环境下繁殖。”“暗示苔藓或任何其他先锋物种已经准备好改造火星或任何其他外行星，
这是夸大其词。”Zupanska 补充道)”可知，从 McDaniel 和 Zupanska 的话中可以推断出，苔藓要成为火星植
物还有很长的路要走。故选 A 项。
【14 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“then regrown under Earth conditions on sand (然后在地球条件下的沙子上重新生长)”
可知，苔藓的特征是在地球条件下再生。故选 D 项。
【15 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“While Matt Damon relied on potatoes cultivated in biowaste to survive in the hit film
The Martian, the researchers say it is a humble desert moss（藓类） that might prove crucial to establishing life on
Mars(在热播电影《火星救援》中，马特·达蒙依靠在生物垃圾中种植的土豆生存，而研究人员表示，这是一
种不起眼的沙漠苔藓，可能对在火星上建立生命至关重要”以及下文不同人对苔藓是否能成为火星上的先锋
生物提出了自己的观点。所以短文主要围绕着“苔藓能成为火星上的先锋生物？”展开，也是文章的最佳标题。
故选 C。
七选五：阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

thing. It covers a lot of elements, like determination, motivation, single-mindedness, courage, commitment and so
on. ____16____ Staying motivated can be hard, especially if you think you are being frustrated frequently.
How do we get motivated to realize our dreams The first thing that can’t be ignored is to figure out our
dreams. Actually, our dream is usually a bit vague. ____17____ The next step is to turn it into a series of goals. A
long-term goal will be the ultimate dream — let’s say, setting up a new business. Short-term and medium-term
goals will be the stages on the road to the final goal.

importance. ____18____ Once faced with such situations, you should find a support system. After all, surroundings
have a great influence on what people are like. In view of this, you’d better mix with motivated people around us to
keep you in high spirits. Because such guys always smile at any difficulties, firmly believing that after the wind and
rain, there is a rainbow. ____19____ And they can provide you with positive emotional value, such as
encouragement, support and appreciation. If surrounded by those people, how can you suffer from frustration and
negative thoughts
____20____ What you should do is tackle it as soon as you realize your motivation has gone. Think about why
your self-motivation has been lost and then look at how you can bring it back. Don’t ignore it, or you will come to
regret your lack of action. Work to get that self-motivation back and get back on the road to success.
A. Your plan itself is a foundation of self-motivation.
B. So it is necessary to make a clear whole plan in advance.
C. Their optimism and confidence must reflect back on you.

受到挫折)”可知，选项承接上下文，说明作者很看重诸多要素中的动力。故 D 选项“其中，我认为动力是最
重要的一个”切题。motivation 呼应 Staying motivated。故选 D 项。
【17 题详解】
根据下文“The next step is to turn it into a series of goals. (下一步就是把它变成一系列的目标)”可知，选项应说
明第一步应该怎么做。故 B 选项“因此，有必要提前制定一个明确的整体计划”切题，下文中的 it 指代选项

with such situations, you should find a support system.(一旦遇到这些情况，你应该找到一个支持系统)”推知选
项与上文为转折关系，说明与积极相反的情况。故 G 选项“然而，你却常常陷入沮丧，甚至怀疑自己”切题，
下文的 such situations 指选项中的提到的“常常陷入沮丧，甚至怀疑自己”的情况。故选 G 项。
【19 题详解】
根据上文“In view of this, you’d better mix with motivated people around us to keep you in high spirits. Because
such guys always smile at any difficulties, firmly believing that after the wind and rain, there is a rainbow.(鉴于此，
你最好和我们周围积极的人交往，让你保持高昂的精神。因为这样的人总是在任何困难面前微笑，坚信风
雨之后总会有彩虹)”可知，选项承接上文说明与积极的人交往对自己的影响。故 C 选项“他们的乐观和自信
一定会影响到你”切题。故选 C 项。
【20 题详解】
根据下文“What you should do is tackle it as soon as you realize your motivation has gone. Think about why your
self-motivation has been lost and then look at how you can bring it back. Don’t ignore it, or you will come to regret
your lack of action. Work to get that self-motivation back and get back on the road to success.(你应该做的是一旦
你意识到你的动力已经消失，就去解决它。想想为什么你失去了自我激励，然后想想如何让它恢复。不要
忽视它，否则你会后悔你的不作为。努力找回自我激励，重新走上成功之路)”可知，下文主要告诉我们在失
去动力时应该怎么处理，所以不要担心会失去动力。故 E 选项“此外，重要的是不要担心失去动力”切题。

阅读理解
A new study has revealed that a prehistoric sea cow was the target of two different predators (捕食动物) — an
ancient crocodile and a tiger shark, providing rare insights into the complex food chains from millions of years ago.
The research, conducted by an international team of scientists and published in the Journal of Vertebrate
Paleontology, uncovers one of the few known instances where a single prey (猎物) was attacked by many
predators.
The sea cow, belonging to the extinct group Culebratherium, was first attacked by a crocodile. Evidence then
shows that after the initial attack, the sea cow’s remains were searched by a tiger shark, a tooth of which was found
near the unlucky animal’s neck.
“Have you seen the Batman movie There is a scene where he and Alfred are shooting bullets to try and figure
out which specific type of bullet they are trying to find, ” said Benites-Palomino, lead author of the research. “Our
research was conducted in exactly the same way. We have these experiments in the wild where predators are
attacking their prey, and then afterwards we try to compare which is the best scene for what we’re finding there.”
The find is particularly significant as it adds to the limited fossil record of multiple predators interacting with a
single prey. Such interactions are common in today’s ecosystems, but are rarely documented in the fossil record,
making this discovery an important piece of the puzzle in understanding ancient food webs.
“We have been unsure as to which animals would have served this purpose as a food source for multiple
predators. Our previous research has identified sperm whales searched by several shark species, and this new
research highlights the importance of sea cows within the food chain, ” Benites- Palomino said in a statement.
The digging, directed by Marcelo Sanchez- Villagra, head of the Palaeontological Institute and Museum in
Zurich, Switzerland, was both challenging and rewarding. The site was initially discovered by a local farmer who
spotted unusual rocks, inspiring the team to investigate further and eventually unearth the sea cow fossils.
12. What do we know about the prehistoric sea cow
A. It reached the top of food chains. B. It is thought to have complex teeth.
C. It belongs to an endangered species. D. It was attacked by two different animals.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The scene of animal fights. B. The method of the research.
C. The introduction of a movie. D. The danger of the experiments.
14. What does the importance of the study lie in
A. Challenging the current ecosystems. B. Offering insights into ancient food webs.
C. Clarifying the misunderstanding of sea cows. D. Figuring out the link between man and nature.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Batman Movie Inspired a Research B. A Puzzle in Complex Ancient Food Chains
C. Shark and Crocodile Ate Unlucky Sea Cow D. An Important Biological Discovery of a Farmer
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讨论了一项关于史前海牛的研究，这种海牛被两种不同的捕食者捕食，
提供了对数百万年前复杂食物链的罕见见解。

author of the research. “Our research was conducted in exactly the same way. We have these experiments in the
wild where predators are attacking their prey, and then afterwards we try to compare which is the best scene for
what we’re finding there.”(“你看过蝙蝠侠电影吗？有一个场景，他和阿尔弗雷德正在射击子弹，试图找出他
们试图找到的特定类型的子弹，”该研究的主要作者贝尼特斯-帕洛米诺说。“我们的研究是以完全相同的方
式进行的。我们在捕食者攻击猎物的野外进行了这些实验，然后我们试图比较哪种场景最适合我们在那里
发现的东西。”)”可知，第三段主要讲了研究的方法。故选 B。
【14 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The find is particularly significant as it adds to the limited fossil record of multiple
predators interacting with a single prey. Such interactions are common in today’s ecosystems, but are rarely
documented in the fossil record, making this discovery an important piece of the puzzle in understanding ancient
food webs.(这一发现意义重大，因为它增加了有限的多种捕食者与单一猎物相互作用的化石记录。这种相互
作用在今天的生态系统中很常见，但很少有化石记录，这使得这一发现成为理解古代食物网的重要拼图)”
可知，这项研究的重要性在于提供对古代食物网的见解。故选 B。
【15 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study has revealed that a prehistoric sea cow was the target of two different

A fixed mindset of interest can harm creativity and innovation. If people believe they are limited to only a few
particular interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections
across different dimensions. ____16____ Those who with a growth mindset are also more likely to be creative
when solving problems.
____17____ In June, we published findings from an intervention that succeeded in that aim. In two studies
involving more than 700 first- year liberal arts undergraduates, we began by assessing how our participants saw
themselves. The majority held strong interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences. ____18____
We then randomly assigned students to either our intervention or a study skills module. Our intervention
included reading and reflective writing activities that helped students think about interests and passions as
cultivated rather than as simply found and fixed. ____19____ The study skills module had a similar set of exercises
but with an emphasis on building classic skills, such as time management and active learning.
These students were required to take at least one math and science course during their first year. That meant
we could check how the intervention may have influenced their perspectives on math and science.
By the end of the year, students who had received the intervention were more interested in their required
math and science courses than those who received the study skills module —— and this boost was particularly
apparent among students who initially reported that they were not a“ math- and- science person”. ____20____
These students became more skilled in math and science and grew into interdisciplinary (跨学科的) scholars.
A. So can a growth mindset of interest be taught
B. How can a growth mindset of interest be cultivated
C. Meanwhile, a growth mindset of interest comes with many advantages.
D. Moreover, most reported that they were not a “math- and- science person”
E. They also earned better grades in courses than those receiving the study skills module.
F. However, a growth mindset of interest can fuel people's further exploration to different fields.
G. For example, students read an article stating the benefits of viewing interests as developable.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. D 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要讲述了通过研究发现兴趣的成长心态是可以培养的。
【16 题详解】
根据上文“If people believe they are limited to only a few particular interests and, in consequence, do not explore
other areas, they may miss seeing important connections across different dimensions. (如果人们认为自己只局限
于几个特定的兴趣,因此不去探索其他领域,他们可能会错过在不同维度上的重要联系。)”以及下文“Those
who with a growth mindset are also more likely to be creative when solving problems. (那些拥有成长型思维的人
在解决问题时也更有可能具有创造性。)”可知，空处要讲述相反的情况，与下文内容相符，所以选项 F“然
而，兴趣的成长心态可以推动人们对不同领域的进一步探索。”符合语境。故选 F。
【17 题详解】
空处为段落主题。根据本段内容“In June, we published findings from an intervention that succeeded in that aim.
In two studies involving more than 700 first- year liberal arts undergraduates, we began by assessing how our
participants saw themselves. The majority held strong interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences. (今年 6
月，我们发表了一项成功实现这一目标的干预研究结果。在涉及 700 多名文科一年级本科生的两项研究中，
我们首先评估了参与者如何看待自己。大多数人对艺术、人文和社会科学有着浓厚的兴趣。)”可知本段讲述
了对培养兴趣的成长心态的研究结果。所以选项 A“那么，可以培养兴趣的成长心态吗 ”符合语境。故选 A。
【18 题详解】

社会科学有着浓厚的兴趣。)”可知下文可能是对理科的看法，与前文形成对比。所以选项 D“此外,大多数人
表示他们不是“数学和科学的人””符合语境。故选 D。
【19 题详解】
根据上文“Our intervention included reading and reflective writing activities that helped students think about
interests and passions as cultivated rather than as simply found and fixed. (我们的干预包括阅读和反思性写作活
动帮助学生将兴趣和激情视为培养出来的，而不是简单地发现和固定下来的。)”可知，下文可能要具体说明
做法,所以选项 G“例如学生们读了一篇文章,阐述了将兴趣视为发展能力的好处。”符合语境，故选 G。
【20 题详解】
根据上文“By the end of the year, students who had received the intervention were more interested in their required
math and science courses than those who received the study skills module—— and this boost was particularly
apparent among students who initially reported that they were not a“ math- and- science person”. (到年底, 接受干
预的学生比接受学习技能模块的学生对他们的必修数学和科学课程更感兴趣，这种提升在最初报告自己不
是“数学和科学人”的学生中尤为明显。)”以及下文“These students became more skilled in math and science and
grew into interdisciplinary(跨学科的) scholars. (这些学生在数学和科学方面变得更加熟练，成长为跨学科的学
者。)”可知此处都是说接受干预的学生获得的益处，所以选项 E“他们在课程中的成绩也比学习技能模块的
学生好。”符合语境。故选 E。

24-25 锡山高级中学 高二上 11 月期中
阅读理解：
Tipping points, also known as critical transitions (转变), are mathematical cliff-edges influencing everything
in our life. The financial crisis of 2007-09 is often described as one. So is the moment that covid-19 went global.
Anyone can spot a tipping point after it’s been crossed. But it is extremely difficult to spot them before they
happen.
Computer scientists in China now show that artificial intelligence (AI) can help. In a recent study, the
researchers accurately predicted the beginning of tipping points in complicated systems with the help of
machine-learning algorithms (算法). It could help solve real-world problems, such as predicting floods and power
failure.
To simplify their calculations, the team reduced all such problems to ones taking place within a large network
of interacting nodes (节点), the individual elements within a large system. In a financial system, for example, a
node might represent a company. The team then designed two artificial neural (神经的) networks to analyze such
systems.
To train their model, the researchers firstly turned to simplified theoretical systems in which tipping points are
known to occur. Once the model could predict these transitions, it was applied to the real-world problem of how
tropical forests turn to savannah (稀树草原). This has happened many times on Earth, but the details remain
mysterious. The researchers first analyzed the data from three central African regions in the past 20 years and
identified the tipping points. They then wanted to see if training their algorithm on data from two of these regions
could enable it to correctly predict a transition point in the third. It could.
The team then asked the algorithm to identify the conditions that drove the shift. The answer was, as expected,
down to annual rainfall. But the AI was able to go further. The AI detailed that a slight decrease in rainfall from 1,
800 mm to 1, 630 mm led to a minor 5% drop in tree cover, but a further decrease to 1, 620 mm caused a
significant 30% drop. This would be a textbook critical transition. And by predicting it from the raw data, the
researchers say they have broken new ground in this field.
The team are now trying to discover what specific features the Al identifies to make these predictions, which
could help better predict everything from infectious outbreaks to the next stock market crash.
12. How did the team simplify the calculations
A. By limiting the problems within a large network.
B. By focusing on the individual elements in a network.
C. By transforming the problems into ones in a network.
D. By reducing the number of problems in each network.
13. Why was the algorithm trained on data from two central African regions
A. To improve its ability of prediction. B. To check its analysis of the data.
C. To perfect its solutions to problems. D. To test the accuracy of its prediction.
14. What breakthrough did the AI make in the study
A. It revealed the idea that tipping points are predictable.
B. It identified a critical transition point in the tree cover.
C. It confirmed previous theories about rainfall and tree cover.
D. It predicted the future expansion of savannahs in central Africa.
15. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage
A. The Analysis of Rainfall: AI and Tree Cover
B. Spotting Tipping Points: A Big Challenge for AI
C. Machine Learning: Predicting Critical Moment
D. Critical Transitions: The Key to Making Predictions
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
