Standouts of their collection include the skeleton (骨架) of a new armored dinosaur, Borealopelta markmitchelli, which was discovered in 2011 and was the oldest dinosaur found in Alberta to date.Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science: Brussels, BelgiumFounded in 1846, the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science has the largest Dinosaur Gallery in Europe, devoted to displaying dinosaur fossils (化石) and information about them. In 1878, there were 38 nearly complete Iguanodon skeletons found in a coal mine in Belgium, of which the museum acquired 30.Natural History Museum: Paris, FranceThe Natural History Museum has 14 sites around France, with 4 situated in Paris. The museum is the third-largest collection of specimens in the world, with about 62 million in reserve. There are many dinosaurs and prehistoric animals to be found here.Zigong Dinosaur Museum: Zigong, ChinaOpened in 1987, Zigong Dinosaur Museum is unique from many of the other destinations on this list, as it is situated upon a site where dinosaur fossils were found. The mild climate in Zigong has made it a gold mine for dinosaur-related discoveries!Spread out over three floors, the museum covers around 710,000 square feet and contains a number of exhibits devoted to the Jurassic period, which occurred around 205 million to 135 million years ago. There were 100-plus specimens discovered at the Zigong site alone, and thirty of them were complete (or nearly complete) skeletons!21．Which museum will you visit to see Borealopelta markmitchelli?A．Natural History Museum. B．Zigong Dinosaur Museum.C．Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology. D．Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science.22．When was the museum with the largest Dinosaur Gallery in Europe founded?A．In 1846. B．In 1878.C．In 1987. D．In 2011.23．What is special about Zigong Dinosaur Museum?A．It is open seven days a week.B．It houses about 135 million specimens.C．It has many prehistoric animals fossils there.D．It is located at a site where dinosaur fossils were discovered.BRecently I bought a book about signposts. Signposts aren’t very interesting, you’re thinking. Well, that, of course, depends on whether you happen to be lost! Ancient travelers would have been grateful for these when settlements were smaller and further apart. In winter, the ability to reach shelter for the night could be the difference between life and death.One of the very earliest waymarks discovered is in Cumbria. Dating from Roman times, it had lain fallen until 1836, when a farmer ploughing his fields came across a sandstone shaft (碑文). There are other stone posts that have stood by roadsides for centuries. It wasn’tuntil 1697 that an act was passed declaring that guide-stones must be built.This applied to remote parts of the country where there might be confusion as to which path led to the nearest market town. Later, with the appearance of the Royal Mail, the number rose still further. Nowadays many of these early road signs are designated (指定) as Listed Monuments.“How times change!” Lucy, an enthusiastic walker, to whom I loaned the book,exclaimed.“I suppose now we all rely far more upon mobile phones to guide us.”“Yet they aren’tperfect. Whenever I go out, I prefer a map. I never have to worry about running out of battery.” “T’m always grateful to whoever is placing way-markers along the route,” she added,“I suppose that however sure we are, a little outside confirmation is always welcome.”Lucy is quite right there. Life itself can offer us a great many choices of path, and sometimes it isn’t easy to know if we’ve chosen the best one.Perhaps when it comes to gratitude, we should also include thanks for those people who appear in our lives when we most need them — either giving us gentle warning that we might be heading in the wrong direction, or reassurance that we are on the right track. After all, we’d be lost without them!；24．What does the underlined word “these ” in the first paragraph refer to?A．Signposts. B．Abilities. C．Settlements. D．Shelters.；25．What contributed to the initial spread of signposts?A．The market trade. B．The act passed in 1697.C．The discovery of the sandstone. D．The appearance of the Loyal Mail.；26．What does Lucy think of signposts?A．Popular. B．Outdated. C．Imperfect. D．Helpful.；27．What does the author learn from signposts?A．To choose right tracks. B．To live a colorful life.C．To have a grateful mind. D．To offer practical choices.CIn about 23 years，it may finally be time to look up. A recently discovered asteroid (小行星) has a chance of hitting the earth on Valentine’s Day in 2046. It was discovered on Feb.26 at an observatory in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile.While the thought of an asteroid hitting the earth may sound concerning, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) says people shouldn’t be worried.The asteroid has an estimated diameter of 160 feet, which is about the same size as an Olympic swimming pool or the width of a football field.“We’ve been tracking a new asteroid named 2023 DW that has a very small chance of impacting the earth. Often when new objects are discovered, it takes several weeks’ data to reduce the uncertainties and adequately predict their orbits years into the future, “NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) said.The asteroid is ranked on the Torino Scale as level 1 threat. The scale is a tool to categorize potential earth impacts, with zero being no threat and 10 being something that can cause a global disaster. One on the Torino Scale means 2023 DW is in the normal, or green zone.“Current calculations show the chance of collision (碰撞) is extremely unlikely with no need for public concern,” NASA says of the green zone. “New telescopic observations will very likely lead to re-assignment to Level 0.”Although 2023 DW doesn’t pose a great risk to the earth, NASA has been continuing to work to defend our planet from any asteroid that could cause disaster.In September, 2022, NASA crashed its Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft, or DART, into an asteroid to see if it could change the trajectory of the space rock. NASA later confirmed the mission was a success, and is continuing to research how effective the method is, should a massive asteroid be headed our way.；28．What does NASA’s PDCO say about 2023 DW?A．It is too close to the earth. B．It must be destroyed in space.C．Its orbit is still uncertain now. D．Its orbit should be changed.；29．How is 2023 DW ranked on the Torino Scale?A．As Level zero threat. B．As Level ten threat.C．In the normal zone. D．In the threatening zone.；30．What does the underlined word “trajectory” mean in the last paragraph?A．Size. B．Weight. C．Angle. D．Path.；31．Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．An Asteroid Was Discovered at an Observatory in ChileB．An Asteroid Is Coming Our Way, Unlikely to Hit UsC．A Space Rock Has Just Passed the EarthD．A Spacecraft Has Been Crashed RecentlyDTake a look at that tree in the local park. What might it be feeling? Could it be thinking? Experiments are exploring the idea of plant cognition (认知), even going so far as to suggest they possess some form of consciousness.As wild as it sounds, it isn’t a new idea. The field of “plant neurobiology (神经生物学)” began in 2006, aimed at understanding how plants process information from their environment.It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings, which were originally dismissed. But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals. They claim to show that plants are capable of intentionally choosing to perform certain behaviors, of learning and perhaps even having personalities. If plants are experiencing a conscious inner world, they argue, it becomes vital that we find ways to test and understand it.Extending the concept of cognition to plants would mean a significant shift in our view of the uniqueness of humanity, not to mention how we treat our botanical friends, so the bar of acceptance is high. Researchers rising to the challenge are hoping to explore plants with tools usually reserved for the human brain.The research can appear persuasive, but it is in its early stage and suffers from repeated failure. Critics say the field is a high guess and that the behaviour can be explained through inborn response.Whether we decide that plants have cognition may come down to our ability to describe consciousness itself-something we are far from doing. But rather than dismiss the idea, we should welcome the chance to think up new ways to test our understanding of consciousness. It might just improve our grasp of the human mind. At the very least, our trees and plants should benefit from the extra attention-consciously or not.；32．What do supporters of plant consciousness believe?A．Plants can only perform native reaction.B．Plants can perceive their surroundings and adapt to them.C．Plants possess the same level of consciousness as humans.D．Plants can communicate complicatedly and choose actions deliberately.；33．What is the main challenge in accepting the idea of plant consciousness?A．The need to develop tools to test plant cognition.B．The dramatic change in our view of humanity.C．The lack of evidence in the field of plant neurobiology.D．The inability to describe consciousness itself.；34．What is the current state of research in the field of plant cognition?A．The field is highly based on guesses and has no evidence.B．Researchers are using tools reserved for the human brain to study plant behaviors.C．There is not enough evidence to support the idea of plant consciousness.D．Plants have been proven to possess a form of consciousness.；35．What is the potential benefit of studying plant consciousness?A．Enhancing our understanding of the human brain.B．Developing new ways to test plant behaviors.C．Promoting our relationship with plants.D．Proving the existence of plant cognition.第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，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。Like it or love it, social media is a major part of life. Teens spend more than half of their waking hours online. They use some of that time to post pictures and create profiles on social media accounts.     36    Clicking on a thumbs-up or a heart icon is an easy way to stay in touch.     37     Some social media sites use those likes to determine how many people eventually see a post. One with many likes is more likely to be seen-and to get even more likes.What’s more, viewing posts with a lot of likes activates the reward system in our brain.     38     For example, posts related to alcohol may encourage teens to drink. That means that what you like online has the power to influence not just what others like, but even what they do.    39     And not always in a good way. For example, in one 2011 study, teens doing a driving task in a lab took more risks when their friends were around. Researchers also looked at the teens’ brains during this task. They saw activity in a part of the brain that’s involved in rewards, which suggests the teens were changing their behavior to try to get social approval.Joining social media can give people a sense of being in the know. But posts may exaggerate (夸大) how well our friends and others are feeling, making them appear much happier than we are.     40    A．It can also lower the viewer’s self-control.B．A popular post doesn’t necessarily mean it is a quality post.C．It’s no surprise: Feedback from peers affects how teens behave.D．Their brains respond to those likes by turning on the reward center.E．And that can, inappropriately, make us feel less successful than them.F．But those “likes” can have power that goes beyond a simple connection.G．Most of what they do is read and respond to posts by friends and family.第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节完形填空（共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分)After I gave birth, it seemed my brain had been dragged out of me along with my newborn son.

I felt ashamed of having no idea how to do any of the moves. Even though I liked the learning part, I did not like the feeling-worse-than-everyone part!But one day after class while I was putting my shoes on, a girl named Abigail said, “That last kick we practiced is so hard for me, and you’re so good at it.”“You must have confused me with someone else,” I replied. “I’m not good at any of it.”“In that case, I’m in trouble,” she joked, “because you’re the one I stand behind and copy in class.”I laughed, “Seriously?”“Seriously!” she laughed, too. After that, we became great friends. However, a few months later when Abigail’s mom got a job in a different state and she had to move away, I was rather sad. I had a tough time dragging myself to karate for a while after that I missed Abigail so much. Then, a girl named Ava joined my class. She was always quiet. Until one day we finally had a conversation. “It must be weird (怪异的) being the new one in class.” I said. “So weird!” said Ava. “You do things really differently than we did at my old dojo (柔道馆).”I suddenly realized she’d been silent only because she was new. We started talking more, and we got along so well that we started hanging out after class. Then, almost a year later, guess who showed up at karate. “This is so cool.” I said, giving Abigail a huge hug. “What are you doing here?”“My mom’s job in New York didn’t work out,” she explained. “So we got to move back.”“That’s the best news ever!” I said. “You have to meet my dear friend Ava. And Ava, meet my dear friend Abigail.”I put my arms around their shoulders. Feeling very excited, I told them I hoped we could get along well and be close friends, while Abigail and Ava stared at each other with some hesitation and an uncertain smile. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150词左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Things seemed all right at first.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          One day, I simply could not take it anymore.
