Petra and Wadi Rum, Jordan
When it comes to the world’s wonderful desert scenery, Jordan’s Petra and Wadi Rum has it. Also known as the Valley of the Moon, this place is one of the best due to its amazing desert canyons (峡谷) and rock walls. Participants love exploring its Burdah and Um Fruth, walking to the impressive ancient city.
Kilimanjaro, Tanzania
The Rongai Route is the best route if the participants of the walking tour want a quiet climb. The Kili Trail permits travelers to witness the region’s wilderness, virgin forests, and rare animals. This route, according to many, is the easiest way to reach the top where the breath-taking 360-degree sights of natural wonders await.
Quebec, Canada
This special environment made up of both the natural and cultural treasures, where fresh water becomes one with the tides of the sea, makes Quebec one of the interesting walking tour destinations in the world. Here is a track that heads to the Saguenay Fjord National Park which is included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Adding to the beauty of Quebec are its sparkling waterfalls, inviting lakes, and rare animals.
Great Smoky Mountain, US
This region has been named as the ancestral home of the Cherokee Indians, where rich natural wonders combined with interesting history are the major happenings. The rich natural reserve is evident and enjoyed by walking tour participants. What also makes this destination a popular choice is its reputation as the biggest wilderness on the eastern part of the United States.

Voices offer lots of information. It turns out that they can even help diagnose (诊断) an illness and researchers are working on an app for that. The National Institutes of Health is funding a massive research project to collect voice data and develop an AI that could diagnose people based on their speech.
Everything such as your breathing patterns when you speak offers potential information about your health, says Dr. Yael Bensoussan, the director of the University of South Florida’s Health Voice Center and a leader on the study.“We asked experts: Well, if you close your eyes when a patient comes in, just by listening to their voice, can you have an idea of the diagnosis they have?” says Bensoussan.“And that’s where we got all our information. Someone who speaks low and slowly might have Parkinson’s disease. Depression or cancer could even be diagnosed.”
The project is part of the NIH’s Bridge to AI program, which was launched over a year ago with more than $100 million in funding from the government, with the goal of creating large-scale health care databases for precision (精准) medicine.“We were really lacking what we call open source databases,” says Bensoussan.“Every institution has their own database. But to create these networks was really important to allow researchers from other generations to use this data.”
The ultimate goal of the project is an app that could help bridge access to rural or underserved communities, by helping general practitioners (行医者) refer patients to specialists. To get there, researchers have to start by amassing data, since the AI can only get as good as the database it’s learning from. By the end of the four years, they hope to collect about 30,000 voices.
There are a few roadblocks, however. HIPAA, the law that regulates medical privacy, isn’t really clear on whether researchers can share voices. Every institution has different rules on what can be shared, and that opens all sorts of moral and legal questions.
24．What is the project aimed at?
A．Examining voice data.
B．Detecting speech problems.
C．Offering health information.
D．Developing a medical diagnosis app.
25．What did Dr.Yael Bensoussan learn from the experts?
A．Doctors work better with their eyes closed.
B．Parkinson’s disease can be easily discovered.
C．How a person walks shows his health condition.
D．The voice of a patient may indicate a certain illness.
26．What does the underlined word“amassing” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Storing. B．Analyzing. C．Collecting. D．Exchanging
27．What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．The difficulty in carrying out the project.
B．The need to share voices concerning the project.
C．The way to protect medical privacy in the project.
D．The proposal for issuing rules related to the project.
C
The pandemic has required many people to make difficult judgments. Politicians have had to decide which restrictions to impose on citizens' behavior and individuals were forced to assess how much personal risk to take.
Good judgment is a quality everyone would like to have. But it is remarkably difficult to define precisely, and many people are not sure whether they personally possess it. Sir Andrew Likierman of the London Business School has spent a long time talking to leaders in a wide range of fields in an effort to create a framework for understanding judgment.
First he had to define the word. He suggests that judgment is ''the combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and make decisions''. The degree of judgment required tends to increase as people take on more responsibility. For a chief executive, the proportion of decisions involving judgment is high. Deciding not to take action is also a judgment with potentially serious consequences.
Some people think that good judgment is inborn. Sir Andrew accepts that some individuals are born with the ability to listen, be self-aware and better understand other people: all qualities that make good judgment easier. Others may have the wrong sort of characteristics; a tendency to ignore others, stick to rules irrespective of context, rush into action without reflection and struggle to make up their minds.
As artificial intelligence gets used for more and more routine tasks in the service sector, exercising judgment may be one of the only areas where humans retain an edge over machines. This is far from certain, however. With enough practice, machines may be able to display the equivalent of good judgment. But then, perhaps humans can be taught, too. In the long run, one of the trickiest aspects of human judgment may be knowing precisely when to let machines make decisions and when to leave it to people.
28．Which of the following situation DOESN'T need a person's judgment?
A．Politicians decide restrictions imposed on citizens' behavior.
B．A person assesses what action to take in face of difficulties.
C．A student decides not to work out a math problem.
D．A farmer feels hurt when bitten by a snake.
29．Which statement is true about Sir Andrew Likierman?
A．He talked to leaders with good judgment for his study.
B．He thinks people are born with good judgment.
C．He thinks being self-aware helps with good judgment.
D．He thinks people with the ability to listen have good judgment.
30．What may artificial intelligence be able to do according to the passage?
A．to make decisions freely B．to finish any tasks
C．to display good judgment D．to leave decisions to humans
31．Which of the following could replace the underlined phrase?
A．have an advantage over B．take the place of
C．perform worse than D．stand up to
D
I was deeply moved by the kindness of an elderly flower seller at Sydney’s Central Station one evening.
I was feeling as cold as the winter winds quickening the steps of the people who buried chins (下巴) in scarves and hands deep into coat pockets. In many ways, 2018 had proven an arduous year. My teenage daughter had left home for university, my job of 23 years was no more, and a creative project I’d given my all to for years had also been suddenly called off. I also found out a person I considered a friend was far from it.
A year earlier, I’d dreamt about an earthquake. In the dream, a red light flashed inside a building and then the earth began to rock. Walls fell down on me as I ran into the open, feeling sorry for the people I hadn’t loved enough. Before I was buried completely by the falling world, I shouted, “Abuelo, ayudame,” in my native Spanish. “Grandfather, help me!”
Now, with the very real aftershocks of a series of unexpected endings, I walked into a little flower shop to buy a gift for a friend. The gentleman at the shop looked at me and turned away for a moment, returning with a fragrant flower. “For you. You need to smile today,” he said in a rich and beautiful accent, offering me the flower with eyes full of care. It took all my strength not to cry. Then he gave me a grandfatherly hug that made me want to tell him everything.
Instead, I thanked him and headed for the train. How did he know? I wondered. For the first time in weeks, I felt hope.
32．The underlined word in the second paragraph means “_____________”.
A．puzzled B．mixed C．hard D．meaningful
33．What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A．A detailed description of the author’s dream.
B．The help that the author got from his grandfather.
C．An earthquake that the author came across before.
D．The author’s sorry thoughts for the people he hadn’t loved enough.
34．What drove the author to walk into the flower shop?
A．Series of unexpected things.
B．The fragrant flowers in the shop.
C．The gentleman in the flower shop.
D．The idea of sending a gift to a friend.
35．Why did the author feel hope in the end?
A．Because the gentleman showed his concern for the author.
B．Because the gentleman gave the author a grandfatherly hug.
C．Because the gentleman at the shop sent him a fragrant flower.
D．Because the gentleman said some words in a rich and beautiful accent.

67．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。
When I was eight or nine years old, I wrote my first poem. My mother read the little poem and began to cry. “Buddy, you didn’t really write this beautiful, beautiful poem!” My mother poured out her praise. I glowed. “What time will Father be home?” I asked. I could hardly wait to show him what I had accomplished. My mother said she hoped he would be home around seven. I spent the best part of that afternoon preparing for his arrival. First, I wrote the poem out in my finest flourish(花体字). Then I used colored crayon(蜡笔) to draw an elaborate border around it that would do justice to its brilliant content. Then I waited. As 7 o'clock drew near, I confidently placed it right on my father’s plate on the dining-room table.
But my father did not return at seven. I admired my father. He was head of Paramount Studios in Hollywood but he had begun his motion picture career as a writer. He would be able to appreciate this wonderful poem of mine even more than my mother.
This evening it was almost 8 o'clock when my father burst in. He was an hour late for dinner. His mood seemed thunderous. He could not sit down but circled the long dining-room table with a drink in his hand, calling down terrible oath(诅咒) on his employees.
Suddenly, he paused and stared at his plate. There was a suspenseful silence. “What is this?” He was reaching for my poem. I lowered my head and stared down into my plate. I was full of anxious daydreams. How wonderful it would be if this very first work of mine drove away the angry clouds that now darkened my important father’s face.
“Ben, a wonderful thing has happened,” my mother began. “Buddy has written his first poem! And it’s beautiful.”
“If you don’t mind, I’d like to decide for myself.” Father said.
I kept my face lowered to my plate as he read that poem. It couldn’t have taken very long to read that poem. It was only ten lines. But it seemed to take hours. I could hear him dropping the poem back on the table.
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。
Now came the moment of decision.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few years later I took a second look at the first poem, and I had to agree with my father’s judgment.

When the weather gets warm, people love to play in the water. Many like to swim in pools, lakes and rivers. Others like to swim in the ocean. But water can be dangerous. About 10 people die from drowning each day in the USA. These simple rules will help you enjoy the water safely this summer.
Learn to swim
If you can't swim, don't go into the water. And take a swimming class. Swimming is much easier than you may think. Classes are available at pools, schools and sports centers.
Don't swim alone
When you do swim, always swim with another person. The two of you can watch out for each other. If something happens, one of you can go and get help.
Be careful
Choose to swim in areas with lifeguards. If you need help, the lifeguard can help you. When you play in the water, don't push or jump on others.
Enjoy the water, but remember to do it safely.

Depression or cancer could even.be diagnosed.( “我们问专家:嗯，如果病人进来时你闭上眼睛，只听他们的声音，你能知道诊断结果吗?”Bensoussan说。“这就是我们获得所有信息的地方。说话低沉缓慢的人可能患有帕金森氏症。甚至抑郁症或癌症也能被诊断出。)”可知，从专家那里Yael Bensoussan了解到病人的声音可能表明他患有某种疾病。故选D。
26．词句猜测题。根据下文“since the AI can only get as good as the database it’s learning from. By the end of the four years, they hope to collect about 30,000 voices.(因为人工智能实际上只能获得它学习的数据库。到四年结束时，他们希望收集到大约3万个声音。)”可知，数据不够是研究人员面临的主要问题，所以为了实现目标必须从收集大量数据开始，所以划线词与collecting意思相近。故选C。
27．主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容“There are a few roadblocks, however. HIPAA, the law that regulates medical privacy, isn’t really clear on whether researchers can share voices. Every institution has different rules on what can be shared, and that opens all sorts of moral and legal questions.(然而，还有一些障碍。监管医疗隐私的HIPAA法律并没有明确规定研究人员是否可以分享声音。每个机构对可以共享的内容都有不同的规定，这就引发了各种各样的道德和法律问题。)”可知，本段讲述实施实验计划面临的困难。故选A。
28．D 29．C 30．C 31．A
28．推理判断题。根据第三段中“He suggests that judgment is ''the combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and make decisions''. The degree of judgment required tends to increase as people take on more responsibility. For a chief executive, the proportion of decisions involving judgment is high. Deciding not to take action is also a judgment with potentially serious consequences.(他认为判断是“个人素质与相关知识和经验的结合，形成意见并做出决定”。当人们承担更多的责任时，需要的判断程度往往会增加。 对于一位首席执行官来说，涉及判断的决策比例很高。决定不采取行动也是一种可能带来严重后果的判断)”可推知，农夫被蛇咬时感到受伤不需要判断。故选D。
29．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Sir Andrew accepts that some individuals are born with the ability to listen, be self-aware and better understand other people: all qualities that make good judgment easier. Others may have the wrong sort of characteristics; a tendency to ignore others, stick to rules irrespective of context, rush into action without reflection and struggle to make up their minds.( Andrew爵士承认，有些人生来就具有倾听、自我意识和更好地理解他人的能力：所有这些品质都使良好的判断更容易。其他人可能有错误的特征；他们倾向于忽视他人，不顾背景而坚持规则，不加思考就匆忙行动，并努力做出决定)”可知，C选项“他认为自我意识有助于良好的判断”正确。故选C。
30．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“With enough practice, machines may be able to display the equivalent of good judgment.(经过足够的练习，机器可能能够显示出良好的判断力)”可知，人工智能可以显示良好的判断力。故选C。
31．词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“As artificial intelligence gets used for more and more routine tasks in the service sector, exercising judgment may be one of the only areas where humans”以及后文“With enough practice, machines may be able to display the equivalent of good judgment.(经过足够的练习，机器可能能够显示出良好的判断力)”可知，随着人工智能被越来越多地用于服务领域的日常任务，判断可能是人类胜过机器的唯一领域之一。故画线部分意思是“胜过”。A. have an advantage over胜过，优于；B. take the place of代替；C. perform worse than表现糟于；D. stand up to经得起。故选A。
32．C 33．A 34．D 35．A
32．词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“My teenage daughter had left home for university, my job of 23 years was no more, and a creative project I’d given my all to for years had also been suddenly called off. I also found out a person I considered a friend was far from it.”可知，在这一年里，作者的女儿离开家去上大学了，干了23年的工作也没了，多年来全身心投入的一个创意项目也突然被取消了，这些都表明2018年是极其艰难的一年，由此可知画线词词义为“艰难的”，故C项正确。
33．段落大意题。根据第三段内容，特别是“A year earlier, I’d dreamt about an earthquake.”可知，本段详细介绍了作者一年前做的一个梦，故A项正确。
34．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“I walked into a little flower shop to buy a gift for a friend.”可知，作者走进花店是想给朋友买花作为礼物，故D项正确。
35．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“returning with a fragrant flower. “For you. You need to smile today,” he said in a rich and beautiful accent, offering me the flower with eyes full of care.”可知，卖花老人送给作者一束花并告诉她应该微笑，眼里满是关心，由此可知作者最后感受到了希望是因为卖花老人对她的关心，故A项正确。

(近年来，微信和TikTok等应用越来越受欢迎)”及后文“Also TikTok is already a household name globally(此外，抖音在全球已经家喻户晓)”可知，微信和抖音近年来非常受欢迎，后文介绍了抖音的受欢迎程度，故空处应介绍微信的受欢迎程度。C项“WeChat alone, as of 2020, boasts more than 1 billion users worldwide.(截至2020年，仅微信一家就在全球拥有超过10亿的用户)”符合语境。故选C项。
37． 前文“WeChat is particularly relied upon as a secure part of the structure of our technologically advancing societies.(微信作为我们这个技术进步的社会结构的一个安全部分，尤其值得信赖)”讲到人们信任微信在技术推进社会结构进步方面的安全作用，A项“Residents in Guangzhou can use the app to store their ID cards.(广州居民可以使用这款应用存储身份证)”与后文“Moreover, a court in Haidian allows litigants (诉讼当事人)to communicate with their lawyers through WeChat video connections.(此外，海淀一家法院允许诉讼当事人通过微信视频连接与律师沟通)”都是为显示微信推进社会进步而举的例子。故选A项。
38．根据前文“The ability to move through web pages without tags and save articles alongside other offline content within the app simplified the online experience.(在没有标签的情况下浏览网页，并将文章与其他离线内容一起保存在应用程序中，这些功能简化了在线体验)”可知，使用微信时可以在不同的网页中切换，并将文章与其他离线内容保存在应用程序中，这简化了在线体验。F项“Users didn’t have to switch constantly from app to app depending on the type of multimedia they consumed.(用户不必根据他们使用的多媒体类型不断地在应用程序之间切换)”承接上文，符合语境。故选F项。
39．根据后文“An example is that users, when opening an app such as WeChat, will simply at first see the content that had been previously browsing, allowing them to pick up where they left off, much like reading a book.(例如，当用户打开微信等应用程序时，首先会看到之前浏览过的内容，让他们从离开的地方继续浏览，就像阅读一本书一样)”可知，当用户打开微信时，首先会看到之前浏览过的内容，他们可以继续浏览下去，这说明了微信浏览体验的连续性。G项“The continuity(连续性)in the online and offline browsing experience makes WeChat successful in keeping our attention.(线上和线下浏览体验的连续性使微信成功地保持了我们的注意力)”承接下文，符合语境。故选G项。
40．根据前文“The intuitive(直观的)design is what makes WeChat not just an app in communicating with friends and family.(直观的设计使微信不仅仅是一个与朋友和家人交流的应用程序)”及后文“You can also order a taxi through it.(你也可以通过它叫出租车)”可知，微信不仅仅是一个与朋友和家人交流的应用程序，后文提到微信的另一个用途，故空处应介绍微信的其他用途。B项“Many may bring up the fact that you can pay for goods and services.(许多人可能会提到这样一个事实：你可以为商品和服务付费)”符合语境。故选B项。
41．B 42．C 43．D 44．A 45．C 46．C 47．A 48．B 49．C 50．C 51．A 52．B 53．D 54．A 55．B

67．
Now came the moment of decision. “I think it’s terrible,” he said. I couldn’t look up. My eyes were getting wet. “Ben, sometimes I don’t understand you,” my mother was saying. “This is just a little boy. These are the first lines of poetry he’s ever written. He needs encouragement.” “No one says Buddy has to become a poet,” my father held his ground. My father’s words hit me over the heart like a hard fist. I couldn’t stand it another second. I ran from the dining-room up to my room, threw myself on the bed and cried the worst of the disappointment out of me.
A few years later I took a second look at the first poem, and I had to agree with my father’s judgment. It was a pretty terrible poem. As I worked my way into other books and plays and films, it became clearer and clearer to me how fortunate I had been. I had a mother who said, “Buddy, did you really write this? I think it’s wonderful!” and a father who shook his head and drove me to tears with, “I think it’s lousy.” In fact, every one of us in life needs that mother force and father force. Between the two poles of praise and doubt, both in the name of love, we try to follow my true course.
