The Mogao Caves，China
Also known as the Mogao Grottoes，the caves are located along the cliffside（峭壁） above the Daquan River in Gansu province.First built in 366 and comprising 492 caves，the Mogao Caves are known as the biggest collection of Buddhist art in the world.As a landmark or the historic Sick Road，the Mogao Caves are a perfect display of Chinese art history over a period of a thousand years.
Redwood National Park，US
Lying in the mountainous region north of San Francisco in California，US.，the Redwood National Park is significant for its collection of redwood trees —the tallest and oldest trees in the world—as well as its variety of sea and land wildlife.Once abundant throughout the temperate（气候温和） regions of the world，the Redwood trees of California are among the only living examples left of this old plant species，a bíological group which has existed for 160 million years.
Machu Picchu，Peru
Situated in the Andes Mountains，this fascinating ancient city is remarkable both for its beautiful setting as well as its use of complex city planning.Standing at 2，430 meters above sea level，the city of Machu Picchu is covered with both mist and mystery.Researchers have yet to uncover the city's role in the Incan（印加族的） empire's use of astronomy and plant domestication（驯化）.21.  What can you learn from the Mogao caves？ ______ A. They have the largest art collection.
B. They were built on steep cliff.
C. They were built five centuries ago.
D. They perfectly exhibited art history.22.  Why is Redwood National Park important？ ______ A. Because it has a number of redwood trees.
B. Because it lies in the mountainous region.
C. Because it has a temperate and mild climate.
D. Because it has various tallest and oldest trees.23.  What do we know about Machu Picchn？ ______ A. Its high altitude makes the place well-known.
B. Its complex city planning enjoys the best fame.
C. The Incan culture is still a mystery for researchers.
D. The mist surrounding the city added to its beauty.BIt is well known that birth rates have declined as women's labor-force participation has increased.Handling a career as well as juggling childcare appeared to leave little room for big families.But new research now helps to explain a striking of that trend in rich countries：higher female participation rates are associated with more babies.
In 1980 rich countries with high numbers of female workers had lower birth rates than poorer ones with more jobless women.Wealthy parents spent more money on their children and working mothers faced higher costs from child-rearing.As more women joined the labor force，birth rates should have fallen.However，by 2000，after the share of working women had increased in places such as America and Britain，that trend had reversed.Among rich countries birth rates were highest in those where the most women worked.Demographers were puzzled.What had changed？
A new working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research argues that the reversal was driven by both cultural and policy changes.In countries such as America，and Norway it became economically and socially easier to hold down a job and be a mother.As a result，the birth rate increased.But in places where the two remained in conflict，for example in Italy and Spain，women still worked more and had fewer babies.
The authors find that four main factors lead to higher fertility rates：flexible labor markets，cooperative fathers，favorable social norms，and good family policies.In Norway，for example，where childcare is highly subsidized—in 2021 the government spent ￥ 29，726 per toddler—both the female employment rate and the fertility rate are among the highest in the OECD，a club of mostly rich countries.No doubt 49 weeks of parental leave helps，too.
Public spending，however，does not solely determine child-rearing decisions.Social factors also play a role.America ranks near the bottom of the OECD on childcare spending，dishing out just ￥ 500 per child each year.It is also the only country without national paid maternity leave.But men in America do more housework and take on more child care than in most OECD countries.
Getting men to do their share of the household work may not be simple for governments or women.Shifting social norms takes time and increasing spending on child care or improving parental leave policies—as Democrats in America have tried to do—can be politically fraught.But the trend is clear：making it easier for mothers in rich countries to work is a good way to help bump fertility rates.24.  Which word can replace the underlined word"reversal"in paragraph 1？ ______ A. turnaround B. imbalance C. destroy D. repetition25.  How does the author develop the second paragraph？ ______ A. By figures B. By definition C. By comparison D. By examples26.  In which country the birth rate declined with female employment in recent years？ ______ A. America B. Britain C. Norway D. Italy27.  Which of the following factor doesn't contribute to higher fertility rates in rich countries？ ______ A. The flexibility of labor markets.
B. The conflict between employment and maternity.
C. Male's share of household work and childcare.
D. Favorable social rules and good family policies.CWe've all been there：in a lift，in line at the bank or on an airplane，surrounded by people who are，like us，deeply focused on their smartphones or，worse，struggling with the uncomfortable silence.
What's the problem？It's possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence.It's more likely that none of us start a conversation because it's awkward and challenging，or we think it's annoying and unnecessary.But the next time you find yourself among strangers，consider that small talk is worth the trouble.Experts say it's an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.
Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy，but we can't forget that deep relationships wouldn't
even exist if it weren't for casual conversation.Small talk is the grease（润滑剂） for social communication，says Bernardo Carducci，director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast."A lmost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk，" he explains."The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others，not just communicate with them."
In a 2014 study，Elizabeth Dunn，associate professor of psychology at UBC，invited people on their way into a coffee shop.One group was asked to seek out an interaction（互动） with its waiter；the other，to speak only when necessary.The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience."It's not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband，" says Dunn."But interactions with peripheral（边缘的） members of our social network matter for our well-being also."
Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging，a bond with others.Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk."Small talk is the basis of good manners，" he says.28.  What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph？ ______ A. Addiction to smartphones.
B. Impatience with slow service.
C. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.
D. Absence of communication between strangers.29.  What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci？ ______ A. Relating to other people. B. Showing good manners.
C. Focusing on a topic. D. Making business deals.30.  What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk？ ______ A. It improves family relationships.
B. It raises people's confidence.
C. It makes people feel good.
D. It matters as much as a formal talk.31.  What is the best title for the text？ ______ A. Conversation Counts B. Benefits of Small Talk
C. Uncomfortable Silence D. Ways of Making Small TalkDAlthough most diets vary according to what foods you can eat，they all follow the same principle of restriction to lose weight—you need to eat less.The now-trendy diet of intuitive eating is，in a sense，an anti-diet：followers are encouraged to base what they eat on how they feel，not on prescribed limits or calorie counts.
The concept was first proposed in the mid-90s by registered dietitians Elyse Resch and Evelyn Tribole，who wrote Intuitive Eating.The first step is to reject the idea that you need to be on a diet to be healthy.You're encouraged to also give yourself"permission"to eat all foods，to reject the idea of "good" and "bad" foods and to accept your natural body shape.Finally，you help make your body healthier by adding exercise，finding better ways than food to relieve your emotions and slowly shifting to more nutritious food choices.
One of the biggest misunderstandings around intuitive eating is that nutrition .Curiously，researches shows that in a traditional diet，caloric restriction is usually followed by a binge（放纵），where the body's primary drive to make sure it gets enough calories is more important than any desires for nutrition or moderation（自我节制），which leads to disordered eating patterns.However，because intuitive eating allows all foods on the table，practitioners can make small，slow changes that ultimately are more long-lasting-toward eating more nutritionally.
There isn't strong research to back up claims that intuitive eating helps with losing weight or eating more-nutritious food.However，in Keller's experience，a registered dietitian in Calgary，intuitive eating can help with overall weight maintenance.In addition，intuitive eaters do gain a healthier attitude toward food，compared to traditional dieters.Keller says，"When people decide
to diet，what they actually want is to feel comfortable and confident and healthy in their own body.People have to be ready to overcome their constant desire to lose weight and control their body，and to realize that changing how they look on the outside isn't going to change those things on the inside."32.  What do we know about intuitive eating？ ______ A. It helps followers to lose weight by eating less.
B. It prohibits followers from eating what they like.
C. It encourages eaters to be on a diet to be healthy.
D. It advises eaters to be healthier by exercising more.33.  What does the underlined phrase"goes out the window"mean in the third paragraph？ ______ A. Exports. B. Disappears. C. Destroys. D. Distributes.34.  What is the Keller's attitude to intuitive eating？ ______ A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.35.  Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？ ______ A. Does intuitive eating beat a conventional diet？
B. How does intuitive eating work？
C. Will intuitive eating help lose more weight？
D. Should we bother to lose weight？第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Why do we like somebody else？One factor（因素） may be intelligence.It could be assumed that people generally like other people better if they're smarter，as they might be more interesting to talk to. 36___ If someone is too smart，somebody with lower intelligence may not like them as they might feel that they look worse in comparison.In contrast，a really smart person might feel that somebody with lower intelligence is less likable.
37___ In the study，researcher Maria Flakus and her team analyzed data gathered from Polish high school students.The results of the study indicated that being intelligent influenced both being liked and liking others.Interestingly，it did so in opposite ways. 38___ However，they tended to like fewer people than less intelligent students.Specifically，smart students had a tendency to only like others that were as smart as themselves.
Importantly，the effect of liking others due to their intelligence was strongest during the first test and became weaker over time.Thus，over time，the importance of intelligence in building social relationships decreases. 39___ The researchers suggest that over time，knowing about the shared interests of others may be a more important factor in liking than knowing they're smart.
In contrast，the effect of smart students only liking others that were equally intelligent remained significant over the course of the year，although it became a bit weaker.The researchers warn that this may lead to intelligent students being seen as isolated（孤立的） by others.This may become problematic if the smart students are viewed as too proud. 40__
A.Instead，other factors become more important.
B.Smart people in the study tended to like nobody.
C.Intelligent students were liked better by their classmates.
D.The relationship between intelligence and being liked is complex.
E.A recent study looked into the link between intelligence and being liked，
F.But this association may also be a function of the intelligence of both people.
G.Thus，smart people may wish to be careful to take care of their social relationships.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)This past summer was really special for Jaequan Faulkner，a 13-year-old boy living in Minneapolis，Minnesota.He set up a hot dog (41) outside his home to make some extra money.The boy took care to make sure that all food was fresh and clean.People in the neighborhood (42) the boy's spirit，but there was only one (43)：he didn't have a permit.

Our fear pushed us to learn whatever we're assigned，whether it was memorizing a passage or solving a math problem，so in a way，the teachers were effective.I was able to remember a lot，and as a kid I never sat back and wondered if the education I was getting was good enough.
But looking back，I see that I never grew mentally in that school.They didn't teach us to think broadly or be creative.Instead，my classmates and I were taught what we needed to know to survive inside a classroom，but not the things that would help me survive in the real world.
When I came to the United States，I didn't know what to expect.On my first day of school，I met my new teacher，Mr Jean Pierre，who was Haitian.He greeted me with Creole （克里奥尔语）.It meant that we were equals.
On my first day in his class，I couldn't even read the English title of the textbook he handed me.But I learned so quickly that by my third week，I understood most questions and was even raising my hand.
He also had us learn 10 to 20 vocabulary words each day.For each word we had to memorize how to spell it and pronounce it and create a sentence with it.At first，I hated this method because I wasn't used to having to be creative in any way.But gradually，he helped me fall in love with creative writing.Every morning，we'd have 30 minutes to write about anything that came to mind.I discovered I was good at this，and he was the first teacher ever to put in time aside from his regular schedule for me，staying during lunch or after school to help me and another student who loved writing.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The English Newspaper Paragraph 1
Through actions like these，Mr.Jean Pierre showed me that he truly cared about me as a person and wasn't just interested in doing his job and getting paid.He taught us knowledge and patiently answered our questions.When we met with difficulties，he worked with us to find a way.When we make progress，we share happiness with him.Mr.Jean-pierre's method worked just as well as that of my horrible teacher in Haiti.In seventh grade，the top ten students in our school were all from our class，all from teacher Jean-Pierre.I feel very happy. Paragraph 2
But he was also the kind of teacher who taught us how to survive in life.He took the time to tell us how to conduct ourselves in an office environment and how to stay focused even when everything might seem to be against us.He made me realize that you can impress someone for a little while by dressing fancy，but a smart，educated mind can make a much longer-lasting impression.I know he made a big impression on me. Now I'm always looking for lessons I can take beyond the classroom.
