A

Treasure Hunt Through Modern-Day Ruins

Urban exploration of abandoned man-made structures became popular in the 1990s when modern society was fast forwarding into the next century. Left behind were relics of human civilization. Far away from modernization, rusted in air, tangled in weeds and vines, ruins tell forgotten tales and sometimes become history in and of themselves.

Punch Buggy Scrapyard

MOAB, UTAH

Vintage car lovers won't want to miss this huge car disposal yard, the impressive open-air TomTom's Volkswagen graveyard-a father-and-son cooperation begun in 1961 with eight cars. From buses to Beetles to Karmann Ghias to Squarebacks, hundreds of cars, car windows, doors and tires form a rainbow colored fleet contrasting with the dry yellow ground.

Game of Thrones' End

KUPARI, CROATIA

Six miles east of Dubrovnik, one of the main filming locations of the hit series Game of Thrones' King's Landing, is a bay of abandoned hotels that witnessed Croatia's real power play. It was once a seaside resort for the military elite before the Yugoslav army destroyed it during the Croatian War in the 1990s. What exists today at the complex of former glory are overgrown weeds, graffiti and rusty remains.

Once Upon a Gold

ATHENS

Stadiums that once housed tears and sweat, cheers and boos during the 2004 Olympic games are now left for weeds. The beach volleyball arena, aquatics center and other venues were abandoned because of little local interest and lack of planning when the $15 billion grand building was being erected.

Twining Romance

QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA

Nearly a century ago, Spanish sugarcane cutter José Paronella wanted to build a castle in the rainforest for his wife. The resulting wonderland-Paronella Park-with vines twining on stone pillars and moss peeping out from cracks has been open to the public since 1935. Its current owners are dedicated to "maintaining and preserving" the primitive beauty of this renowned carbon neutral tourist attraction with 7,500 flora and fauna (动植物).

21. Which place might interest a fan of TV series?

A.MOAB B.KUPARI   C.ATHENS   D. QUEENSLAND

22. What caused the Olympic stadiums to be abandoned?

A. Lack of public awareness.

B. Overgrown weeds.

C. High construction cost.

D. Insufficient planning.

23. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?

B

I was a graduate student in Manhattan having breakfast on my rooftop on Sept. 11, 2001, when I witnessed planes hit the Twin Towers. For months afterwards, I shook with anxiety every morning. Unwilling to medicate, I tried everything else. Mindfulness meditation (冥想) caused panic attacks. Hot yoga built muscle but did nothing for my anxiety. I went to talks by Buddhist monks and meditation teachers hoping to attain inner peace, but in vain. Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditation class, which involves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different postures and rhythms. Though I went in skeptical,I came out calm. Two decades later,I never missed a day of my breathing practice, not even when I gave birth.

I've also devoted part of my research career to studying the benefits of breathing for mental health and well-being. Seven years after 9/11, I was working with veterans returning from war with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Traditional treatments had failed many of them, so my colleagues and I ran a randomized controlled trial to test the effects of SKY breathing. Compared with the control group, veterans practicing SKY every day for one week saw their anxiety drop to levels typical of the general population.

Even though most did not continue to practice, they maintained the benefits a year later.

Emotions influence your breathing patterns, and changing your breathing can change your emotions. For example, anxiety and anger correspond to an irregular, short, fast breath. Adopting the slower and more regular breathing pattern that corresponds to a calm feeling signals relaxation by activating the vagus nerve (交感神经)，slowing heart rate, easing blood pressure, and settling you down. A simple exercise you can try is to close your eyes and breathe out for twice as long as you breathe in. Do this for five minutes in the morning, before a stressful meeting or as you transit from work to home.

24. Why did the author attend the SKY Breath Meditation class?

A. To build up muscles.

B. To relieve inner anxiety.

C. To learn more about meditation.

D. To quest for religious belief.

25. How did the author test the effects of SKY breathing?

A. She worked with healthy veterans returning from war.

B. She chose victims suffering PTSD in the 9/11 incident.

C. She divided the veterans into two groups and compared results

D. She cooperated with researchers from mindfulness meditation classes

26. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Breathing interacts with emotions.

B. It is harmful to activate the vagus nerve.

C. Breathing out as long as you breathe in is a simple way to follow

D. Breathing regimen should be carried out for five minutes every morning.

27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. PTSD: more awareness needed

B. SKY: better well-being attained

C. Meditation: an effective treatment

D. Breath: detailed ways to conduct

C

Lizards that once resided in forests but now hang around urban areas of Puerto Rico have genetically morphed (变化) to survive life in the city, researchers have found.

The Puerto Rican crested anole, a brown lizard with a bright orange throat fan, has sprouted special scales (鳞片) to better cling to smooth surfaces such as walls and windows, scientists say. "We are watching evolution as it's unfolding," said Kristin Winchel, a biology professor. As urbanization intensifies around the world, it's important to understand how organisms adapt and humans can design cities in ways that support all species, Winchell said.

The study analyzed 96 Anolis lizards, comparing the genetic makeup of forest-dwellers to those living in Puerto Rico's capital. Scientists found that 33 genes within the lizard genome were repeatedly associated with urbanization.

"You can hardly get closer to a smoking gun," said Wouter Halfwerk, an evolutionary ecologist who was not involved in the study. He said he was impressed that the scientists were able to detect such a clear genomic signature of adaptation: "The ultimate goal within the field of urban adaptive evolution is to find evidence for heritable traits and their genomic architecture."

The changes in these lizards, whose life spans are roughly seven years, can occur quickly, within 30 to 80 generations, enabling them to escape from predators and survive in urban areas, Winchell added. The larger limbs, for example, enable them to run more quickly across a hot parking lot, and the special scales to hold onto surfaces far more smooth than trees.

The study focused on adult male lizards, so it's unclear whether females are changing in the same way or at the same rate as males, and at which point in a lizard's life the changes are occurring. Halfwerk, whose own research showed how one frog species changed its mating call in urban areas, said scientists should look next for possible constraints (限制) on the evolutionary response and how morphology relates to mating behavior.

28. What do researchers find about lizards in the study?

A. Lizards evolve to adapt to the human cities.

B. Lizards are not capable of surviving in the urban areas.

C. Lizards have a negative impact on smooth surfaces of modern buildings.

D. Lizards no longer have natural habitat in forests as a result of urbanization

29. How did the researchers conduct the study?

A. By analyzing previous research data.

B. By comparing different lizard species.

C. By citing the famous scientists' words.

D. By studying Anolis lizards in urban and natural areas.

30. What was Wouter Halfwerk's attitude towards the study?

A. Favorable. B.Tolerant.    C. Indifferent.   D.Doubtful.

31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. All frog species have changed its mating call in urban areas.

B. Only adult male lizards evolve to have larger limbs and special scales.

C. Halfwerk will continue to study how morphology relates to mating behavior

D. The future study might focus on the limitations on the evolutionary response.

D

Given how valuable intelligence and automation are, we will continue to improve our technology if we are at all able to. At a certain point, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin to improve themselves. The concern is really that we will build machines that are much more competent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their goals and our own could destroy us.

Just think about how we relate to ants. We don't hate them. We don't go out of our way to harm them. In fact, sometimes we take pains not to harm them. We step over them on the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriously conflicts with one of our goals, we will kill them without hesitation. The concern is that we will one day build machines that, whether they're conscious or not, could treat us with similar disregard.

The bare fact is that we will continue to improve our intelligent machines. We have problems that we desperately need to solve. So we will do this, if we can. The train is already out of the station, and there's no brake to pull. If we build machines that are more intelligent than we are, they will very likely develop in ways that we can't imagine, and transcend us in ways that we can't imagine.

So imagine we hit upon a design of super intelligent AI that has no safety concerns. This machine would be the perfect labor-saving device. It can design the machine that can build the machine which can do any physical work, powered by sunlight, more or less for the cost of raw materials. So we're talking bout the end of human labour. We're also talking about the end of most intellectual work. So what would apes like ourselves do in these circumstances?

But the moment we admit that information processing is the source of intelligence, we have to admit that we are in the process of building some sort of god. Now would be a good time to make sure it's a god we can live with.

32. Why does the author mention ants in Paragraph 2?

A. To compare intelligent machines to ants.

B. To show improved machines will get away from us.

C. To stress the presence of machines does conflict with our goals.

D. To explain future intelligent machines could treat us without mercy

33. What does the underlined word "transcend" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Disable. B. Inspire.     C. Disappoint.    D. Outpace.

34. How is the passage mainly developed?

A. By making comparisons.

B. By giving assumptions.

C. By showing valid evidence.

D. By analyzing statistics

35. Which of the following statements can best summarize the author's viewpoint towards Al?

A. Human beings will no doubt be destroyed by AI in the future

B. Super intelligent AI will put an end to human labour eventually.

C. We should keep the development of AI within humans' control.

D. Human beings should stop the development of super intelligent AL.

Regret refers to a feeling of sadness about something wrong or about a mistake that you have made, and a wish that it could have been different and better. __36__ Experts say they come in four basic varieties: connection regrets, moral regrets, foundation regrets and boldness regrets. An instance of regret may involve just one or a combination.

__37__ Regret is linked with depression and anxiety, and excessive regret can adversely affect your hormones and immune system. For some, it's anathema to sleep.

To truly get over our regret requires that we put it in its proper place. The trick is not to avoid the bad feeling; it's to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement. __38__ We have to seek them out on purpose to improve ourselves. Here are things you may find helpful the next time your are indulged in regrets.

__39__ This suggests that regret is like a ghost: not entirely clear but always frightening. Bring your ghost out of the shadows by making a list of your regrets. Write down why each one still bothers you and its lingering bad effects. You will find that a list is a lot less dreadful than a ghost.

After you make a mistake, life moves on. But sometimes you just can't stop kicking yourself. Perhaps you dropped out of school decades ago and are constantly calculating today how much money you would be making, had you pressed on to graduation. __40__

Life is a journey full of pleasures and pains. To live it well and fully means learning from every bit of it, including regrets, and moving forward.

A. Not all regrets are the same, of course

B. People often say their regrets chase after them.

C. Regret's benefits don't come to us by chance.

D. Never waste another minute of life reliving a decision that cannot be changed.

E. Some take the declaration a step further and claim that they have no regrets at all.

F. Unanalyzed and unmanaged, any variety of regrets can be poison for your health.

G. If you are of the "no regrets" school of life, you might think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness.

I wasn't having a stroke at all. I had completely worn out my favorite pair of sandals. The soles (鞋底) of both shoes were split in two! I had __50__ all the possibilities to figure out what was causing my clumsiness. It never occurred to me to check my soles.

So often when we start to feel __51__, we look for ways to make things better. But just as it never occurred to me to check the soles of my shoes, our own souls are the very __52__ thing we think of to check. Take a moment to remember the last time you sat still, meditating. If you can't remember when that was, it might be a(n) __53__.

The local cobbler (鞋匠) said my soles were irreparable. We had a good __54__, but it was time to let them go. Fortunately for us, our souls can be mended and restored — once we realize they are in need of __55__.

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

The Christmas holidays were fast approaching, and we had ordered many gifts online. So, when the doorbell rang, I was sure some of the packages had arrived. I ran to the door and swung it open, but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful calico kitten (杂色猫) sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself, was there?

We figured that someone had found the kitten somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed we would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.

My husband called her our little angel, so we named her accordingly. She had a calm aura (气质) about her as she walked straight into our home and hearts, fitting in perfectly. It seemed as if she was always meant to be in this big house with us. She was an old soul and turned out to be the perfect companion. Always by my side, she was more like a puppy than a kitten. Wise beyond her years, she enjoyed wandering through the tunnels and mysterious rooms as much as I did, but with much less fear. Angelica the calico was courageous.

So, I took a page from her book and decided to be brave, too. There was an underground stone cellar (地窖) I had been eager to explore. The only way in was down a rickety (摇晃的) ladder to its murky depths.I guessed it was an old root cellar, probably twelve feet deep.

I had promised my husband that I wouldn't explore dangerous areas unless he or someone else was around. Though I knew I was stretching it, I figured that Angelica would count as my companion. I was ready to explore this cellar, and so was she.

I equipped myself with a good flashlight and warm clothes, and carefully started down the rickety ladder while Angelica was looking down at me from above. Faint crack and sudden crash were what I could remember.

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。

Paragraph 1

I woke up with pieces of the rotting, broken ladder lying around me on the stone cellar floor.

Paragraph 2

It seemed my companion, Angelica, was my last hope.

Dear David,

Delighted to learn that you have keen interest in the Charity Sale held by the students’ union last Sunday, I’d love to share some details with you.

To raise funds for the needy, we were called on to collect various gadgets from our families and sold them at prices below fair market value. So enthusiastic were our classmates and teachers that all goods were snapped up within hours.

The event was a great success, providing us with a golden opportunity to get engaged in charity work and contribute to a good cause. Have you ever participated in something similar? I’d love to hear from you.

Yours,

Li Hua

As she eyed the area from a distance, panic set in. Jobie picked up the pace, her heart pounding louder the closer she got. When she reached the place she had left them, her heart almost stopped. “They’ re gone!” she screamed. “My lucky spikes are gone.” Fear crept over her as she anxiously circled the whole area and scanned for any splash of neon-green. Jobie’s teammates helped her search the park, trying to find any trace of the spikes but in vain. No lucky spikes. By nightfall, the poor girl had no choice but to drag her bare feet home. “So long, gold,” Jobie groaned.

The next day, without her lucky spikes, Jobie was among the best track teams gathering for the championships. In her brand-new shoes, she accepted the reality that this was not a game of chance. Teammates patted her back as she slowly walked down to the starting line, which also instilled great power in her. Starting buzzer going, Jobie was off in a flash. She set focus on the finishing line, leaving behind any self-doubt or worry until she finally breasted the tape earlier than anyone else. In the cheers and shouts, Jobie squatted to untie her spikes as usual, only to realize that there was no such thing as lucky spikes and that success was never a stroke of luck.

W: Yes, but the problem is that it costs 50 dollars. I could hardly afford it.

M: Have you gone to the school library to search for it?

W: Yes, of course, but I couldn’t find it. I even asked the librarian to help me, but there wasn’t a copy in the library. You know, there are 40 students in my class, and everyone wants the book. I don’t know what to do now.

M: Listen, my roommate Noah took the course last term. I remember he has a copy. I’ll borrow it from him for you. (12)

W: Thanks a lot. That’s very kind of you.

Good morning, children and parents. Welcome to the Children’s Club in our neighborhood. As the end of the school year is drawing near, we’ve prepared various gifts, such as stickers, bookmarks and pencils. To add more fun, we’ve hidden them for you to find around this center. (18)

Here’s the information you need to know. First of all, all children should put your names down at the desk, because you will be divided into several groups. (19) Then, if you’re ready, preschool children will be going out of this front door and their parents should go together. Outside this door, you will see a flag as the marker for your area. There will be some helpers to direct you. If you are in the first to third grade, you’re going right outside that back door to search in the yard. The parents of this group are welcome to go with the children. Finally, the fourth graders, please, follow me down the hall through the double doors and to the other side of the center where you’ll be going to look for your gifts. (20) There’s plenty for everyone.
