阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Since early May 2022, cases of monkeypox（猴痘）have been reported from countries where the disease is not endemic（地方性流行的）, and continue to be reported in several endemic countries. Most confirmed cases with travel history reported travel to countries in Europe and North America, rather than West or Central Africa where the monkeypox virus is endemic. This is the first time that many monkeypox cases and clusters have been reported concurrently in non-endemic and endemic countries in widely disparate geographical areas. Click here for more information.
WHO is collaborating with health authorities to prevent further spread of the disease. We are issuing guidance to help countries on surveillance, laboratory work, clinical care, infection prevention and control, as well as risk communication and community engagement to inform communities at risk and the broader general public about monkeypox and how to keep safe.
You can catch monkeypox through close contact with someone who has symptoms. Close contact includes skin-to-skin; face-to-face; mouth-to-skin; and mouth-to-mouth. You can also catch monkeypox from contaminated bedding, towels, surfaces or objects.
Protect yourself
· If someone you know is diagnosed with or has suspected monkeypox, avoid close contact with them
·Know the symptoms and check yourself regularly
·If you have symptoms, seek health advice and self-isolate while you wait to get tested
·Get vaccinated if it is available to you
·Clean and disinfect environments that could have been contaminated with the virus from someone who is infectious
·Stay informed about monkcypox in your area
·Have open, non-judgmental conversations with people you come into close contact with about any symptoms you or they may have
Protect others if you are recovering from monkeypox at home
·Isolate in a separate room
·Use a separate bathroom, or clean and disinfect it（with household disinfectant） after each use
·Clean hands frequently using soap and water or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer
·Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects
·Avoid sweeping and vacuuming
·Use separate dishes, cups, bedding, towels and electronics
·Do your own laundry. Put everything in a plastic bag before carrying it to the washing machine. Use soap and water > 60 degrees.
·Open windows
21. What should we do when interacting with infected people?
A. Talk with them.
B. Gossip about how they were infected.
C. Be friendly and shake hands with them.
D. Disinfect surfaces or objects touched by them.
22. If you are recovering from monkeypox at home, which is WRONG to protect others?
A. Keep good ventilation.
B. Clean the floor frequently.
C. Don't do laundry with your family.
D. Sanitize the bathroom after each use.
23. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A website. B. A book. C. A brochure. D. An advertisement.
B
The Supreme Court decided to overturn Roe v Wade, starting a fresh battle in this decades-long fight over abortion. In a 6-3 ruling, the court found that there was no constitutional right to abortion, turning the decision of whether to allow abortions or not up to the states. Millions of women are now expected to lose access.
This decision was based on their interpretation of constitutional law, but it's also deeply political. When the court overturns a previous ruling it inevitably looks to critics to be more political than constitutional.
The court has a 6-3 conservative super majority, thanks to the three justices appointed by Donald Trump. He made a specific campaign promise to appoint judges who would overturn Roe v Wade-and those appointments will probably be his most lasting legacy.
Now that Roe v Wade is overturned, 26 states could further restrict abortion access, including 13 states that have passed so-called trigger laws, which would introduce bans immediately upon the court's decision.
Democratic-controlled states like California and New York will cast themselves as abortion sanctuaries, welcoming women from places where the procedure has been outlawed. There are 20 states in all where abortion will remain a protected right. About 26. 5 million women of childbearing age live in those states.
As abortion clinics close down in states that have outlawed the practice many more are expected to open near state borders in places where it is still allowed. Those who don't have the time or money to travel may resort to other means-such as ordering abortion-inducing pills online even if it is illegal.
There were somewhere between 600, 000 and 800, 000 abortions in the US in 2019. According to the Center for Disease Control, about one in six pregnancies endin abortion, and over 90％ occur in the first trimester（妊娠头三个月）. Over half of women who get abortions are already mothers, and for most, it is their first abortion.
Further fights may be ahead over how this ruling affects certain types of contraception（避孕） or IVF treatment. And some have questioned whether similar legal arguments can be used to undermine same-sex marriage.
America today feels like one country that contains two very separate nations, inhabited by two tribes that have completely different values, beliefs and goals. Now, they have just moved farther apart.
（Roe v Wade案是美国最高院1973年宣判的一个案子, 它通过借道隐私权, 确认了美国宪法保障女性的堕胎权。）
24. What does the underlined word “sanctuaries” mean in the fifth paragraph?

27. What is the best title of the text?

C
Housing officials say that lately they are noticing something different: students seem to lack the will and the skill, to address ordinary conflicts. “We have students who are mad at each other and they text each other in the same room, ” says a teacher. “So many of our roommate conflicts are because kids don't know how to negotiate a problem. ”
And as any pop psychologist will tell you, bottled emotions lead to silent discontent that can boil over into frustration and anger. At the University of Florida, emotional outbursts occur about once a week, the university's director of housing and residence education says. “It used to be: 'Let's sit down and talk about it. '”he says. “Over the past five years, roommate conflicts have increased. The students don't have the person- to-person discussions and they don't know how to handle them. ” The problem is most dramatic among freshmen; housing professionals say they see improvement as students move toward graduation, but some never seem to catch on, and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.
Administrators speculate that reliance on cell phones and the Internet may have made it easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable encounters. Why express anger in person when you can vent in a text? “Things are posted on someone's wall on Facebook: Oh, my roommate kept me up all night studying, ” says Dana Pysz, an assistant director in the office of residential life at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It's a different way to express their conflict to each other, consequently creating even more frictions as complaints go public. ” In recent focus groups at North Carolina State University, dorm residents said they would not even confront noisy neighbors on their floor.
Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children's problems in their entire lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Some parents continue to interfere on campus.
28. What is the main reason for many roommate conflicts?
A. Students are not strong-willed.
B. Students are not satisfied with each other.
C. Housing directors are not responsible for them.
D. Students are not good at reaching an agreement about the problems.
29. What do we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Students, especially freshmen, should bottle up their dissatisfaction.
B. All students are not able to handle conflicts by the time they graduate.
C. Students in Florida sit down and have a person-to-person talk once a week.
D. The number of conflicts among roommates has decreased during the past five years.
30. What is the attitude of Dana Pysz when he mentions roommates disclosing their conflicts in the media?
A. Disapproval. B. Indifference. C. Eagerness. D. Empathy.
31. What should parents do according to the passage?
A. They should be involved in their children's life on campus.
B. They should teach their children the skills to tackle the conflicts.
C. They should constantly contact the administrators of the college.
D. They should deal with their children's problems in their whole lives.
D
If you're reaching for the last piece of pizza at a party, and meanwhile see another hand going for it, your next move probably depends on how you feel and whom the hand belongs to. Your little sister--you might just grab the pizza. Your boss-you probably will give up.
Now researchers have made progress in understanding how mammals' brain encodes social rank and uses this information to shape behaviors-such as whether to fight for the last pizza slice. They discovered that an area of the brain called the medial prefrontal cortex（mPFC） was responsible for representing social rank in mammals; changes to a mouse's mPFC affected its dominance behaviour. Butit was unknown how the mPFC represented this information and which neurons（神经元）were involved in changing dominance behaviour.
In the new study, Professor Kay Tye let groups of four mice share a cage. Some mice became more dominant and others more subordinate. As soon as the mice were paired up, he discovered, the activity of their mPFC neurons could predict-with 90 percent certainty-the rank of their opponent.
“We expected animals might only signal rank when they are in a competition, ” says co-researcher Nancy. “But it turns out animals walk around with this representation of social rank all the time. ”
When the researchers next asked whether the activity of the mPFC neurons was associated with behaviour, they found something surprising. The brain activity patterns were linked with slight changes in behaviour, such as how fast a mouse moved, and they also could predict-a full 30 seconds before the competition started-which mouse would win the food reward.
The winner was not always the more dominant, but the one engaged in a winning mindset. Just as you might sometimes be in a more competitive mood and be more likely to snatch that pizza slice before your boss, a subordinate mouse might be in a more winning mindset than a more dominant mouse and end up winning.
The areas of the mPFC associated with social rank and winning mindset are next to one another and highly connected. Signals on social rank impact the state of the brain involved in winning mindset. In other words, a subordinate mouse's confidence and winning mindset may partially decrease when faced with a dominant one.
“This is further evidence to suggest that we are in different brain states when we are with others compared to when we're alone, ” says Tye.
32. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To provide background information.
B. To state the importance of social rank.
C. To give readers an example of social rank.
D. To introduce the topic of the reading passage.
33. What does the underlined word “they" in paragraph 5 refer to?
A. The mPFC neurons.
B. The researchers.
C. The brain activity patterns.
D. The changes in behaviour.
34. What can we learn from the new study?
A. Brain activities can influence social rank.
B. Dominant opponents boost winning mindset.
C. Social rank and winning mindset affect behaviour.
D. Animals only exhibit their rank in competition.
35. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Winning mindset establishes dominance.
B. Social rank guides competitive behaviour.
C. A subordinate mouse can never been a winner.
D. Awareness of different people around you make your brain use different neurons.

If you are someone who struggles with exam anxiety, know that you aren't alone.
If you are always successful, you may not learn much. __36 __Scientists have found that being wrong 15 percent of the time is the secret to learning new things. Although nobody likes to fail, scientists have long suspected that people learnt better when they were challenged to learn something just outside of their existing knowledge.
Make a task too hard and participants will give up without learning any new skills, but if it is too easy, they will also not pick up anything useful. _37__ To find out where the “sweet spot” lies, researchers at the University of Arizona conducted a series of machine-learning experiments in which they taught computers simple tasks, such as picking whether a number was odd（奇数的）or even（偶数的）. They found that when the error rate was 15 percent, the computers learnt fastest.
__38__ It could help teachers adapt their classes to the right level. If the teachers give really easy examples, you get 100 percent right all the time. __39 __If they give really hard examples, you still won't learn anything new. Only when you are at this “sweet spot” can you get the most information from each particular example.
__40 __You shouldn't be disappointed if you aren't 100% right all the time. If you are taking classes that are too easy, then you aren't probably getting as much out of a class as someone who's struggling but managing to keep up.
A. Accept challenges bravely.
B. Then there's nothing left to learn.
C. The more difficult the task, the better.
D. In this way, you can maximize your learning.
E. But that “sweet spot” has always been unknown.
F. Some studies have shown that failure is not a bad thing.
G. The scientists have named it “The 85 percent rule”.

Grandfather was a wise and honorable man. His house was not far from ours, and I would visit him often going home after school.
No matter how rotten I had been, I could tell Grandpa anything. My secrets were safe. Whenever there was a problem, he gave me the tools to fix it. I knew I would always find the best answer from him. He always understood. He loved me.
I remember a time when a bunch of us were playing baseball in the field behind Mrs. Ferguson＇s house. I hit one pitch（投球） just right and slammed！ It was a home run （全垒打）that soared high and away, and ended up breaking Old Lady Ferguson＇s kitchen window! We all ran! Walking home, my best friend, Tom, asked, “How will she ever know who did it? She's blinder than a bat!” He had a point.
I was afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me, so I ran. I didn't know what she would do. I tried to calm down. However, my stomach was in knots（痉挛）. On the way home, I imagined that she was a mean witch chasing me, and the further way I ran, the larger she grew. . until finally she towered over the whole town, seeing my every move with an evil eye. Thoughts rushed through my mind. Would Mrs. Ferguson stay mad at me? Would she call police? Worse still, would she tell my parents I couldn't even imagine the disappointment on Mom and Dad's face. They were hoping I would act honestly and in a responsible way.
I decided to stop by Grandpa's. I felt ashamed. I wanted to hide. I wanted to knock my head against a tree a thousand times and make the world just go away-as if punishing myself could undo（消除）things.
“I would tell everything to Grandpa, " a voice inside me said.
“I was wrong. ” I told him, with my head down. He must have known something was up by the expression on my face. He knew we had been warned many times about the dangers of playing where we shouldn't.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
But he just listened while I continued talking.
Grandpa smiled when he knew I had figured it out.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究人员对大脑中一个叫做内侧前额叶皮质（mPFC）的区域如何参与改变支配行为的研究, 得出结论：mPFC神经元改变支配行为；处于“胜利心态”的人更容易成为超越有统治力的人并获胜。
32. D。推理判断题。第一段通过举例来说明人的表现受到社会地位的影响, 用以引出本文的主题。故选D。
33. C。代词指代题。根据第五段“When the researchers next asked whether the activity of the mPFC neurons was associated with behaviour, they found something surprising. The brain activity patterns were linked with slight changes in behaviour, such as how fast a mouse moved, and they also could predict-a full 30 seconds before the competition started-which mouse would win the food reward. （当研究人员接着询问mPFC神经元的活动是否与行为有关时, 他们发现了一些令人惊讶的事情。大脑活动模式与行为的轻微变化有关, 例如老鼠移动的速度, 它们还可以在比赛开始前整整30秒预测哪只老鼠会赢得食物奖励。）”可知, 研究人员发现大脑活动模式与行为密切相关, 划线部分的“they”指的是大脑活动模式。故选C。
34. C。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The areas of the mPFC associated with social rank and winning mindset are next to one another and highly connected. Signals on social rank impact the state of the brain involved in winning mindset. In other words, a subordinate mouse's confidence and winning mindset may partially decrease when facedwith a dominant one. （mPFC中与社会地位和获胜心态相关的区域彼此相邻, 高度相关。社会等级的信号会影响获胜心态的大脑状态。换句话说, 当面对支配地位的老鼠时, 从属方老鼠的信心和获胜心态可能会部分下降。）”可知, 社会地位和获胜心态可能会影响行为。故选C。
35. D。推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘This is further evidence to suggest that we are in different brain states when we are with others compared to when we’re alone, ’says Tye. （这进一步证明, 当我们与他人在一起时, 大脑的状态与我们独自一人时不同。）”可知, 意识到周围不同的人会让你的大脑使用不同的神经元。故选D。
【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。科学家们发现, 学习新事物的秘诀就是错误率达到15％。
36. F。根据下文“Scientists have found that being wrong15 percent of the time is the secret to learning new things. Although nobody likes to fail, scientists have long suspected that people learnt better when they were challenged to learn something just outside of their existing knowledge. （科学家们发现, 学习新事物的秘诀就是错误率达到15％。虽然没有人愿意失败, 但科学家们长期以来一直怀疑, 当人们受到挑战去学习现有知识之外的东西时, 他们会学得更好。）”可知, 此处是讲科学家们发现失败并不是坏事情, 所以选项F“一些研究表明, 失败并不是一件坏事。”切合文意。故选F。
37. E。根据下文“To find out where the ‘sweet spot’ lies, researchers at the University of Arizona conducted a series of machine-learning experiments in which they taught computers simple tasks, such as picking whether a number was odd（奇数的）or even（偶数的）. （为了找出“最佳点’在哪里, 亚利桑那大学的研究人员进行了一系列机器学习实验, 他们让计算机完成一些简单的任务, 比如选择一个数字是奇数还是偶数。）”可知, 此处是指“最佳点”尚未可知, 所以选项E“但这个“最佳点”一直是未知的。”切合文意。故选E。
38. G。根据上文“They found that when the error rate was 15 percent, the computers learnt fastest. （他们发现错误率为15％时, 计算机学习速度最快。）”可知, 实验的结果是“85％规则”, 对应选项G中的“The 85 percent rule”。且和后文的“It”呼应, 所以选项G切合文意。故选G。
39. B。根据上文“if it is too easy, they will also not pick up anything useful（如果太容易, 他们也不会学到任何有用的东西）”可知, 此处是讲如果太容易, 就没有什么可以学习的东西, 所以选项B“那就没什么好学的了。”对应前文“If the teachers give really easy examples, you get 100 percent right all the time. （如果老师给出非常简单的例子, 你总是百分之百正确。）”, 切合文意。故选B。
40. A。根据下文“You shouldn’t be disappointed if you aren’t 100％ right all the time. （如果你不是100％正确, 你也不 应该失望。）”和“If you are taking classes that are too easy, then you aren’t probably getting as much out of a class as someone who’s struggling but managing to keep up. （如果你选的课程太简单了, 那么你从课程中学到的东西可能不如那些努力学习但能跟上进度的人多。）”可知, 此处是讲要勇敢地接受挑战, 所以选项A“勇敢地接受挑战。”切合文意。故选A。

The exhibition, whose theme is “Beauty of China”, will take place in the school hall from 2 to 5 on the afternoon of November 5. Not only will students' works be displayed, but we also have a valuable collection from a local artist. Besides, there will be some hands-on activities, from which you can try Chinese paper-cutting in person and experience more about Chinese culture.
I would appreciate it if you can accept my invitation. And I'm sure it will leave a wonderful impression on you! Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

But he just listened while I continued talking. “I was wrong. I hate myself for what I did, " I told him, with my head down. I didn't know what to do to make things right. I had been afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me. Finally my grandpa said, “What would you do to tackle the problem?” After a while, I replied, “One solution is to tell her that I am sorry and offer to fix her window. ”
Grandpa smiled when he knew I had figured it out. “Doing what is right is not always easy, ” he comforted me, patting my shoulder encouragingly, “but facing the consequences of your actions is a vital lesson in being a man. ” Later that day, Grandpa accompanied me to Mrs. Ferguson's house to express my heartfelt apology. To my surprise, the lady was very kind and tolerant. She forgave me and even returned my ball. As a reminder, I still keep the ball today for the invaluable lesson I learned-Honesty is the best policy.

Most mosquitoes are harmless in the long run but some of them can prove to be quite dangerous. They are disease carriers and bring illness to people by biting. Some diseases spread by mosquitoes around the world, including malaria and dengue fever. Some people will have an allergic reaction to the mosquito bite, although that happens quite rarely. Usually, people will have a red spot and persistent itch. In today's video, you'll learn how to treat mosquito bites at home. Firstly, vinegar has an unpleasant smell for them. Applying a mixture of vinegar and water onto the mosquito bite can help reduce the sensation of burning and tingling in the area. Please keep in mind that you should stop using vinegar if it causes a skin irritation. Secondly, you can apply crushed ice to the bitten area to help reduce swelling almost immediately. （19） Thirdly, honey is a popular pain reliever, specifically because of its antibacterial properties. Fourthly, baking soda can be used on a mosquito bite. Finally, onions can help you deal with a mosquito bite. That's all for today's program. （20）malaria疟疾 dengue fever登革热（由蚊子传播的热带疾病, 症状为发烧和关节剧痛）
