I was a volunteer with the city of Milpitas，and was studying at mission college.One night after going to class，I was heading home and decided to stop off at a burrito(墨西哥卷饼) restaurant.I got my burrito and started to head for my car when I was approached by a homeless man.He was very dirty and obviously very hungry.He asked me for some change to buy a little food.As I was pulling some change out，I had an idea.
I asked him to follow me back into the burrito restaurant to order.He was ashamed of the way he looked and said he did not want to go in there.But I insisted.When he finally followed me in，the people behind the counter refused to let him in，but I told them that I was buying him dinner and he had a right to be there.After we argued over it for a while，they finally gave in.It seemed like he was relieved a bit to be sitting at a table.I asked him to order whatever he wanted.But he only ordered a burrito.
For someone who has been on the fringes(边缘) of society，he was very surprised at my generosity.But to me，it was what any “human being” should do or at least offer.You had to be there to see the look in his face.It reminded me when I was young and my mom brought out a big birthday cake for me on my birthday，with all the candy，chocolate and goodies that we were about to eat.I think he felt special，like he was getting attention，something that I could see he hadn’t experienced for a long time.
I often think about this story because，to me，it’s not just about helping someone out by feeding them.It’s more about giving them the respect and dignity(尊严) of being a human being and allowing them to feel good about themselves.
24．Why did the homeless man approach the author
A．To ask for a lift. B．To beg for money.
C．To request a burrito. D．To seek company.
25．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．Where to sit in the restaurant.
B．Whether to buy dinner for the homeless man.
C．What to order for the homeless man.
D．Whether to allow the homeless man to enter the restaurant.
26．Why does the author mention his birthday in paragraph 3
A．To demonstrate his wonderful childhood.
B．To stress the importance of enjoying a feast.
C．To describe the happy feelings of the homeless man.
D．To contrast his life with that of the homeless man.
27．What is the thing really worth doing according to the author
A．Ridding the world of hunger.
B．Treating others with respect.
C．Encouraging acts of kindness.
D．Paying attention to the homeless.
C
Campaigns to protect the natural world are getting increasingly ambitious.But although there is convincing evidence that protected areas prevent habitat loss，proof that they actually benefit wildlife is surprisingly scanty.Now，the first large study of its kind shows nature reserves can increase waterbird populations，but typically only if humans take an active role in their management.
To understand the impact of nature reserves，conservation scientist Hannah Wauchope decided to analyze populations of waterbird species.First，the team identified 1,506 protected areas that had population data from both before and after they were created.Then，they paired each reserve with one or more control sites—a similar patch of nearby habitat—that was unprotected.This setup helped the researchers understand how the protected area influenced bird populations.
The researchers had hoped the analysis would clearly show protected areas benefit birds.However，only 27% of waterbird populations in protected areas increased after the creation of the reserve while 21% of populations were negatively impacted，compared with the control sites，after a reserve was established.A silver lining is that nearly half the studied groups neither grew nor shrank: At least those populations were stable.
To figure out what was responsible for the population gains and losses，the team analyzed multiple factors，of which the most important was whether the site was specifically managed for waterbirds.That could mean keeping rivers and lakes at the right levels for the protected species，removing invasive weeds，or installing fencing to keep out invasive predators.
“The modest success of these protected areas makes sense，” says Paul Ferraro，an environmental economist.In many policy contexts，he notes，most interventions work no better than the status quo.However，the new study’s mixed results are what good science actually looks like and we need more studies like this one.
28．What does the underlined word “scanty” probably mean in the first paragraph
A．Believable. B．Solid.
C．Insufficient. D．Conflicting.
29．What can we know about nature reserves from paragraph 3
A．Nearly half of the waterbird populations are in a stable state.
B．A majority of the waterbird populations were negatively affected.
C．Nature reserves increased the waterbird populations as expected.
D．Protected areas make much difference to the waterbird populations.
30．Which of the following is the leading cause of the failure of nature reserves
A．Small size. B．Human activities.
C．Invasive weeds. D．Ineffective management.
31．Why are the environmental economist’s words quoted
A．To emphasize the value of the study.
B．To show the drawbacks of intervention.
C．To indicate the difficulty of more studies.
D．To express satisfaction about the status quo.
D
A wheeled robot rolls across the floor.A soft-bodied robotic star bends its five legs，moving awkwardly.Powered by conventional electricity via plug or battery，these simple robotic creations would be unremarkable，but what sets these two robots apart is that they are controlled by a living entity(实体)：a king oyster mushroom.
By growing the mushroom’s mycelium(菌丝体) into the robot’s hardware，a team led by Cornell University researchers has engineered two types of robots that sense and respond to the environment by using electrical signals made by the mushroom and its sensitivity to light.
The robots are the latest accomplishment of scientists in a field known as biohybrid robotics who seek to combine biological，living materials such as plant and animal cells or insects with artificial components to make partly living and partly engineered entities.
There’s still a long way to go before biohybrid robots go beyond the lab，but researchers hope one day robot jellyfish may explore oceans，sperm-powered robots may be able to deliver fertility(肥沃) treatments and cyborg cockroaches could search for survivors in the wake of an earthquake.
“Biohybridization is an attempt to find components in the biological world that we can use，understand，and control to help our artificial systems work better，” said Shepherd，a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Cornell University.
The team began by growing king oyster mushrooms in the lab from a simple kit ordered online.The researchers chose this species of mushroom because it grows easily and quickly.They cultivated(培育) the mushroom’s mycelium，which can form networks that，according to the study，can sense，communicate and transport nutrients.
The team found it challenging to engineer a system that could detect and use the small electrical signals from the mycelia to command the robot.“You have to make sure that your electrode(电极) touches in the right position because the mycelia are very thin，” said lead author Anand Mishra.“Then you culture them，and when the mycelia start growing，they wrap around the electrode.”
32．What is special about the two robots in the first paragraph
A．They can control living creatures.
B．They can make various movements.
C．They are powered by king oyster mushrooms.
D．They are partly mushroom and partly machine.
33．What does the author want to show by giving the examples in paragraph 4
A．The future possibilities of biohybrid robots.
B．The seriousness of the environmental issues.
C．The limitations of biohybrid robots beyond the lab.
D．The advantages of biohybrid robots over conventional ones.
34．What did the team find difficult when engineering the robots
A．Wrapping the electrode with the mycelia.
B．Arranging the electrode in the right order.
C．Developing a system to cultivate the mycelia.
D．Positioning the electrode accurately on the mycelia.
35．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A．When Nature Meets Technology
B．How Technology Transforms Nature
C．King Oyster Mushrooms：the Magic of Nature
D．Biohybrid Robotics：the Key to Social Development

One of the many lessons we were forced to learn from the pandemic was the importance of social interaction，and the negative effects on social isolation.And even outside of our close relationships with friends and family，weak social ties are also necessary to our sense of well-being.I know how easy it is to close yourself off from interactions from strangers. 36
Recent research shows that even weak social interactions—like a quick exchange with a stranger on the sidewalk—contribute positively to our well-being.It is easy to live life with your head down，avoiding the far ends of your social network，like classmates you never chat with or neighbors whose names you don’t remember. 37 But by avoiding such tiny interactions，you could be robbing yourself of potential happiness.
Take a look at your social network.Think about your favorite coffee shop，your grocery store，your gym—every day we cross paths with some of the same people. 38 Then you’re no longer strangers，and now have mutual familiarity.
39 Consider taking out your ear buds，shifting your gaze from your phone，and smiling at others.You might start identifying familiar faces to introduce yourself to later，you might be making yourself available to someone who needs directions，or you might simply feel less lonely from a small wave or nod from a stranger.
Don’t be disturbing. 40 Don’t force conversation with someone who clearly wants to be alone.If you are concerned that your small talk is making the other person feel in danger，listen to that instinct.However，if what’s holding you back is a fear of awkwardness or embarrassment，then push yourself to beat that anxiety.
A．Look up，literally!
B．Respect people’s boundaries.
C．You may not regard your life as lacking.
D．Do you want to avoid unwanted interactions
E．Take the brave first step to introduce yourself.
F．Sadly，you have to think through the positive effects of conversations.
G．However，building tiny relationships with some acquaintance has a powerful impact.

Tomorrow Represents Hope
Every day，on the way to and from school I passed by a children’s hospital.One morning，as I was hurrying to school，I noticed a child staring out of a small window on the first floor.The next minute I accidentally tripped，leaving my feet in the air.As I slowly pulled myself up and dusted myself off，I looked up again and saw the child laughing.In spite of my situation，I was pleased to have made someone laugh.I bowed as though I were a performer.The child clapped and waved at me.As I stepped closer，I saw that the girl’s head was bald(光秃的)，a sign that she was a cancer patient.I quickly waved one last time to her before making my way to school.
The next morning and the next，I looked out for the little girl and waved to her，jigging(蹦跳) just to make her laugh.I thought about her and wondered what her life must be like.“Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow，Creeps(爬行) in this petty pace from day to day.” Those lines from a Shakespearean poem I had learned in school came to my mind.Was that how the child lived from day to day
I felt the urge to visit the child.I went to the hospital and looked for the room facing the road.I found the little girl.She was thin and pale.When she saw me，her eyes widened with recognition and she welcomed me with a shy smile.I talked to her a bit and learned her name，Suki.The nurse who saw me talking to her later told me that Suki was a leukemia patient.Her navy officer father was a single parent and was on duty outside the country.The nurse encouraged me to visit Suki so that she would not be so lonesome.As I was leaving，Suki called to me，“Tomorrow？” I understood and said，“Yes，tomorrow.”

After that，I dropped in on Suki after school every day._____________________________

I often think about this story because，to me，it’s not just about helping someone out by feeding them.It’s more about giving them the respect and dignity(尊严) of being a human being and allowing them to feel good about themselves.

Campaigns to protect the natural world are getting increasingly ambitious.But although there is convincing evidence that protected areas prevent habitat loss，proof that they actually benefit wildlife is surprisingly scanty.Now，the first large study of its kind shows nature reserves can increase waterbird populations，but typically only if humans take an active role in their management.
To understand the impact of nature reserves，conservation scientist Hannah Wauchope decided to analyze populations of waterbird species.First，the team identified 1,506 protected areas that had population data from both before and after they were created.Then，they paired each reserve with one or more control sites—a similar patch of nearby habitat—that was unprotected.This setup helped the researchers understand how the protected area influenced bird populations.
The researchers had hoped the analysis would clearly show protected areas benefit birds.However，only 27% of waterbird populations in protected areas increased after the creation of the reserve while 21% of populations were negatively impacted，compared with the control sites，after a reserve was established.A silver lining is that nearly half the studied groups neither grew nor shrank: At least those populations were stable.
To figure out what was responsible for the population gains and losses，the team analyzed multiple factors，of which the most important was whether the site was specifically managed for waterbirds.That could mean keeping rivers and lakes at the right levels for the protected species，removing invasive weeds，or installing fencing to keep out invasive predators.
“The modest success of these protected areas makes sense，” says Paul Ferraro，an environmental economist.In many policy contexts，he notes，most interventions work no better than the status quo.However，the new study’s mixed results are what good science actually looks like and we need more studies like this one.
语篇解读　本文是说明文。文章主要讲述建立自然保护区和人类的干预对野生动物的影响。
28．What does the underlined word “scanty” probably mean in the first paragraph
A．Believable. B．Solid.
C．Insufficient. D．Conflicting.
答案　C
解析　词义猜测题。根据第一段画线词所在句“But although there is convincing evidence that protected areas prevent habitat loss，proof that they actually benefit wildlife is surprisingly scanty”中的“although”可知，上下文为转折关系。上文提到“有令人信服的证据”，下文就应该是“能证明保护区实际上有益于野生动物的证据是不足的”，所以scanty的意思应该是“不足的”，和选项C意思一致。故选C。
29．What can we know about nature reserves from paragraph 3
A．Nearly half of the waterbird populations are in a stable state.
B．A majority of the waterbird populations were negatively affected.
C．Nature reserves increased the waterbird populations as expected.
D．Protected areas make much difference to the waterbird populations.
答案　A
解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A silver lining is that nearly half the studied groups neither grew nor shrank: At least those populations were stable.”可知，几乎一半的水鸟数量是处于稳定状态的。故选A。
30．Which of the following is the leading cause of the failure of nature reserves
A．Small size. B．Human activities.
C．Invasive weeds. D．Ineffective management.
答案　D
解析　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“To figure out what was responsible for the population gains and losses，the team analyzed multiple factors，of which the most important was whether the site was specifically managed for waterbirds.”可知，管理是决定鸟类数量的最重要因素，所以如果一个自然保护区失败了，那么最重要的原因应该是管理不善。故选D。
31．Why are the environmental economist’s words quoted
A．To emphasize the value of the study.
B．To show the drawbacks of intervention.
C．To indicate the difficulty of more studies.
D．To express satisfaction about the status quo.
答案　A
解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The modest success of these protected areas makes sense”以及该段最后两句可知，作者引用环境经济学家保罗·费拉罗的话是为了强调研究的价值。故选A。
D
A wheeled robot rolls across the floor.A soft-bodied robotic star bends its five legs，moving awkwardly.Powered by conventional electricity via plug or battery，these simple robotic creations would be unremarkable，but what sets these two robots apart is that they are controlled by a living entity(实体)：a king oyster mushroom.
By growing the mushroom’s mycelium(菌丝体) into the robot’s hardware，a team led by Cornell University researchers has engineered two types of robots that sense and respond to the environment by using electrical signals made by the mushroom and its sensitivity to light.
The robots are the latest accomplishment of scientists in a field known as biohybrid robotics who seek to combine biological，living materials such as plant and animal cells or insects with artificial components to make partly living and partly engineered entities.
There’s still a long way to go before biohybrid robots go beyond the lab，but researchers hope one day robot jellyfish may explore oceans，sperm-powered robots may be able to deliver fertility(肥沃) treatments and cyborg cockroaches could search for survivors in the wake of an earthquake.
“Biohybridization is an attempt to find components in the biological world that we can use，understand，and control to help our artificial systems work better，” said Shepherd，a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Cornell University.
The team began by growing king oyster mushrooms in the lab from a simple kit ordered online.The researchers chose this species of mushroom because it grows easily and quickly.They cultivated(培育) the mushroom’s mycelium，which can form networks that，according to the study，can sense，communicate and transport nutrients.
The team found it challenging to engineer a system that could detect and use the small electrical signals from the mycelia to command the robot.“You have to make sure that your electrode(电极) touches in the right position because the mycelia are very thin，” said lead author Anand Mishra.“Then you culture them，and when the mycelia start growing，they wrap around the electrode.”
语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种将生物和科技结合起来的机器人，包括其工作原理以及存在的挑战。
32．What is special about the two robots in the first paragraph
A．They can control living creatures.
B．They can make various movements.
C．They are powered by king oyster mushrooms.
D．They are partly mushroom and partly machine.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Powered by conventional electricity via plug or battery，these simple robotic creations would be unremarkable，but what sets these two robots apart is that they are controlled by a living entity(实体)：a king oyster mushroom.”和第三段中的“partly living and partly engineered entities”可知，两个机器人部分是蘑菇，部分是机器。故选D。
33．What does the author want to show by giving the examples in paragraph 4
A．The future possibilities of biohybrid robots.
B．The seriousness of the environmental issues.
C．The limitations of biohybrid robots beyond the lab.
D．The advantages of biohybrid robots over conventional ones.
答案　A

34．What did the team find difficult when engineering the robots
A．Wrapping the electrode with the mycelia.
B．Arranging the electrode in the right order.
C．Developing a system to cultivate the mycelia.
D．Positioning the electrode accurately on the mycelia.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“You have to make sure that your...thin”可知，在设计机器人时，团队发现难以将电极准确定位在菌丝上。故选D。
35．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A．When Nature Meets Technology
B．How Technology Transforms Nature
C．King Oyster Mushrooms：the Magic of Nature
D．Biohybrid Robotics：the Key to Social Development
答案　A
解析　标题归纳题。根据第二段内容，结合文章主要介绍了一种将生物和科技结合起来的机器人，包括其工作原理以及存在的挑战可知，A选项“当自然遇上科技”最符合文章标题。故选A。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
One of the many lessons we were forced to learn from the pandemic was the importance of social interaction，and the negative effects on social isolation.And even outside of our close relationships with friends and family，weak social ties are also necessary to our sense of well-being.I know how easy it is to close yourself off from interactions from strangers. 36
Recent research shows that even weak social interactions—like a quick exchange with a stranger on the sidewalk—contribute positively to our well-being.It is easy to live life with your head down，avoiding the far ends of your social network，like classmates you never chat with or neighbors whose names you don’t remember. 37 But by avoiding such tiny interactions，you could be robbing yourself of potential happiness.
Take a look at your social network.Think about your favorite coffee shop，your grocery store，your gym—every day we cross paths with some of the same people. 38 Then you’re no longer strangers，and now have mutual familiarity.
39 Consider taking out your ear buds，shifting your gaze from your phone，and smiling at others.You might start identifying familiar faces to introduce yourself to later，you might be making yourself available to someone who needs directions，or you might simply feel less lonely from a small wave or nod from a stranger.
Don’t be disturbing. 40 Don’t force conversation with someone who clearly wants to be alone.If you are concerned that your small talk is making the other person feel in danger，listen to that instinct.However，if what’s holding you back is a fear of awkwardness or embarrassment，then push yourself to beat that anxiety.
A．Look up，literally!
B．Respect people’s boundaries.
C．You may not regard your life as lacking.
D．Do you want to avoid unwanted interactions
E．Take the brave first step to introduce yourself.
F．Sadly，you have to think through the positive effects of conversations.
G．However，building tiny relationships with some acquaintance has a powerful impact.

Dear Green，
How is everything going I’m glad to receive your e-mail，in which you asked me about my career plan for the future.Now I’m writing to share it with you in detail.
I made up my mind to be a journalist when I visited the Xinhua News Agency last year.I chose it as my career for two reasons.First，the job can let me know new things every day，thus keeping me energetic and passionate all the time since I hate to follow the same routine every day.Second，working as a journalist can help me realize my childhood dream of being a hero of spreading love to others.
To achieve this goal，I plan to study hard to be admitted by Peking University，broadening my horizons to fit the job.
Yours，

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tomorrow Represents Hope
Every day，on the way to and from school I passed by a children’s hospital.One morning，as I was hurrying to school，I noticed a child staring out of a small window on the first floor.The next minute I accidentally tripped，leaving my feet in the air.As I slowly pulled myself up and dusted myself off，I looked up again and saw the child laughing.In spite of my situation，I was pleased to have made someone laugh.I bowed as though I were a performer.The child clapped and waved at me.As I stepped closer，I saw that the girl’s head was bald(光秃的)，a sign that she was a cancer patient.I quickly waved one last time to her before making my way to school.
The next morning and the next，I looked out for the little girl and waved to her，jigging(蹦跳) just to make her laugh.I thought about her and wondered what her life must be like.“Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow，Creeps(爬行) in this petty pace from day to day.” Those lines from a Shakespearean poem I had learned in school came to my mind.Was that how the child lived from day to day
I felt the urge to visit the child.I went to the hospital and looked for the room facing the road.I found the little girl.She was thin and pale.When she saw me，her eyes widened with recognition and she welcomed me with a shy smile.I talked to her a bit and learned her name，Suki.The nurse who saw me talking to her later told me that Suki was a leukemia patient.Her navy officer father was a single parent and was on duty outside the country.The nurse encouraged me to visit Suki so that she would not be so lonesome.As I was leaving，Suki called to me，“Tomorrow？” I understood and said，“Yes，tomorrow.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After that，I dropped in on Suki after school every day._____________________________

参考范文
After that，I dropped in on Suki after school every day.We chatted casually about our own hobbies，favorite food and even the plans for the future.We played card games and read together.Even though Suki was only ten，I found that I could get along with her very well.I was not visiting her out of pity.I really looked forward to her company.At the end of each visit，she always asked，“Tomorrow？” and my reply was always，“Yes，tomorrow.”
Two months later，Suki told me good news.She was well enough to be discharged from the hospital.On my last visit，she gave me an envelope，and said it contained her email address.I promised to write.In her letter，Suki thanked me and told me how my answer to her question “Tomorrow？” had given her hope from day to day.She believed that she recovered because of this.At the end of the letter，she wrote “Tomorrow？” followed by her email address.I smiled and said to myself，“Yes，Suki，tomorrow.”
