Authr Walter Dean Myers died at the age f 76 after a brief illness. Walter Dean Myers was the authr f mre than 100 bks fr children and yung adults and received many tp awards.
The prlific authr was lved fr his vivid descriptin f the lives f African American children, and fr writing bks fr yung peple that cvered different subjects. “Myers has written abut all thse subjects with deep understanding and a hardwn, qualified sense f hpe, ” said Lenard S. Marcus in 2008.
He was brn in 1937 and was adpted by Flrence Dean and Herbert after his mther died while giving birth t his yunger sister. They lved him very much and his mther read t him frm a very yung age. Reading pushed him t discver wrlds beynd his landscape.
He began writing at an early age. He wrte well in high schl and an English teacher recgnized this and advised him t keep n writing n matter what happened t him. “It’s what yu d, ” she said.
He drpped ut f high schl at 17 and jined the army. After finishing his service, he entered a dark perid in his life. Myers began writing at night t pull himself thrugh that miserable time. In an essay published in The New Yrk Times earlier this year, Myers described hw a shrt stry by James Arthur Baldwin helped change the curse f his life. “I didn’t lve the stry, but I was lifted by it, ” he wrte, “fr it tk place in Harlem, and it was a stry cncerned with black peple like thse I knew. By humanizing the peple wh were like me, Baldwin’s stry als humanized me. The stry gave me a permissin that I didn’t knw I needed, the permissin t write abut my wn landscape, my wn map.”
“I write bks fr the trubled by I nce was, ” he wrte, “and fr the by wh lives within me still.”

During a decline in turism, ne natinal park in Thailand has seen a dramatic rise in “visitrs” recently. S many are the hermit crabs (寄居蟹) flding int the therwise empty beaches f Kh Lanta that shells (贝壳) fr them t live in have becme in shrt supply.
The Thai gvernment mved quickly t ease the husing shrtage, launching a public appeal fr empty shells that netted ver 200 kg. On December 5 these were distributed arund the park in a ceremny.
Hermit crabs rely n shells t prtect their sft bdies, mving t larger shells as they grw. On Kh Lanta and the surrunding smaller islands, their rapid increase seems t be a natural phenmenn, rather than directly related t the absence f turists. But the shrtage f shells may be man-made: pretty nes have lng been gathered t be sld as gds. Crabs had begun t make d with ptential death-traps such as plastic caps and bttles.
The shell drive was part f a gvernment initiative t “regain the balance f nature”. “I have instructed all natinal parks t d whatever it takes,” says Varawut Silpa-archa, the minister fr natural resurces. His inspiratin cmes frm the pause in turism brught n by COVID-19. A ban n internatinal visitrs and the clsure f natinal parks have helped nature recver, bringing endangered leatherback turtles back nt Thai beaches. In the castal prvinces f Phang Nga and Phuket, turtles have laid the largest number f eggs fr 20 years.
The gvernment has decided t try t cpy the shrt break frced n it by COVID-19 in future. Frm nw n, all natinal parks will be required t clse fr a shrt perid during the ff-seasn and t limit the number f turists thrugh a reservatin system when they are pen. Althugh such restrictins mean reduced earnings frm turism in the shrt term, in the lnger run mre parks may help t keep the turists cming.
18. What happened t the beaches f Kh Lanta recently?
A. They gt flded by seawater.
B. They became cmpletely empty.
C. They were packed with hermit crabs.
D. They saw a cnstant stream f turists.
19. What cntributed t the husing shrtage fr hermit crabs?
A. Natural disasters.
B. Human activities.
C. Their preference fr bttles.
D. The gvernment’s invlvement.
20. Why are turtles mentined in Paragraph 4?
A. T warn turtles are dying ut.
B. T prve beaches are their ideal habitats.
C. T stress eclgical diversity f Thailand.
D. T shw the birth f Varawut’s inspiratin.
21. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Keeping the Balance f Nature
B. COVID-19 Helping Nature Recver
C. Finding Shelters fr Hmeless Hermit Crabs
D. Clsing Natinal Parks r Drawing Mre Visitrs

Artificial intelligence (AI) still can’t see the future, but a new algrithm (算法) may cme clse: using nthing but written mvie summaries, the AI can cnsistently tell which films will play well－r awfully－t critics and audiences. If the mdel can be further imprved, it culd ne day help prducers predict whether a mvie will be a failure at the bx ffice, befre it’s even made.
T test several mdels, researchers used plt summaries f 42,306 mvies frm all ver the wrld, many cllected frm Wikipedia. The mdels brke the summaries by sentence and used smething called sentiment (情感) analysis t analyze each ne. Sentences cnsidered “psitive”, such as “Thr lves his hammer”, wuld receive a rating clser t psitive ne. And sentences that were cnsidered “negative”, like “Thr gets in a fight” wuld be rated clser t negative ne.
Generally, successful mvies such as 1951’s Alice in Wnderland－which scred 80% n the mvie-rating website Rtten Tmates－have frequent waves in sentiment; unsuccessful nes, such as 2009’s The Limits f Cntrl, vary less. It’s nt imprtant whether the films begin r end happily, the researchers say. What’s imprtant is that the sentiments change frequently.
The sentiment ratings in each summary were then simplified int a single scre t reflect hw ften the sentiment changed. The researchers tested three different methds f arriving at a final scre. All three culd predict fairly accurately whether a mvie wuld be unppular, and ne methd wrked especially well fr guessing which thrillers and cmedies reviewers wuld hate.
The methds were nt as efficient at guessing which mvies wuld succeed, but they still predicted the results mre accurately than randm chance. In the future, the researchers say their methds culd be bettered t predict the amunt a mvie culd earn at the bx ffice and help prducers decide which mvies t invest in. The system’s fair judgment might give an advantage t less well-knwn writers, the researchers add. It culd als ptentially save the public frm having t sit thrugh films like Jaws: The Revenge, which nline critics and audience alike rate as terrible.
22. Hw can AI help fresee the future f mvies?
A. By testing plt mdels.B. By using sentiment analysis.
C. By writing summaries.D. By cnsulting critics and audiences.
23. What is the key factr fr a successful mvie accrding t the researchers?
A. A happy ending. B. Famus mvie stars.
C. A well-knwn prducer.D. Frequent sentiment changes.
24. What benefit will the methds pssibly bring?
A. Helping prducers invest wisely.B. Assessing a mvie's quality accurately.
C. Increasing bx ffice earnings.D. Prviding written summaries fr critics.
25. What’s the researchers’ attitude t the mdel?
A. Dubtful.B. Cautius. C. Optimistic. D. Ambiguus.
第二节 选句填空（共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分）
Handwritten thank-yu letters are such a simple way f making ther peple feel gd, it is strange that s few peple write them anymre. At wrk, a thank-yu letter t emplyees is unbelievably effective. It csts little and has n side effects. The effrt invlved in writing letters is very lw. The pleasure n receiving them is very high. 26
Dug Cnant, manager f Campbell’s Sup Cmpany since 2001, knws the pwer f thank yu letters. He said that every day he wrks with an assistant, searching the cmpany fr peple deserving thanks. 27 Over the past 10 years he has sent 30, 000 thank-yu letters t his emplyees — mre than 10 each day. The reward is huge: his cmpany has remained ne f the mst successful in its field fr years.
28 There seem t be three reasns. Firstly, chief executives (主管) running cmpanies think their wn wrk is mre valuable than that f thers. 29 Secndly, they aren’t clse enugh t the business t knw wh deserves thanks. Thirdly, they have frgtten the strange human truth that almst everyne wuld d almst anything in return fr a few wrds f appreciatin.
In these days f such busy schedules and peple running all ver the place and trying t get ahead, smetimes we frget the simplest things in life are the mst pwerful and rewarding. Yu need t think t yurself abut a time smene sent yu a thank-yu and hw much it meant t yu. 30
A. He then writes them a thank-yu letter.
B. Why are thank-yu letters s imprtant?
C. Yu may ask what side effects exactly mean.
D. This makes them an excellent way t reward and mtivate staff.
E. But if these letters are s inspiring, why dn’t mre managers write them?
F. Always remember t “D t thers whatever yu wuld like them t d t yu!”
G. Since n ne ever writes them thank-yu letters, they dn’t write any themselves.

Authr Walter Dean Myers died at the age f 76 after a brief illness. Walter Dean Myers was the authr f mre than 100 bks fr children and yung adults and received many tp awards.
The prlific authr was lved fr his vivid descriptin f the lives f African American children, and fr writing bks fr yung peple that cvered different subjects. “Myers has written abut all thse subjects with deep understanding and a hardwn, qualified sense f hpe, ” said Lenard S. Marcus in 2008.
He was brn in 1937 and was adpted by Flrence Dean and Herbert after his mther died while giving birth t his yunger sister. They lved him very much and his mther read t him frm a very yung age. Reading pushed him t discver wrlds beynd his landscape.
He began writing at an early age. He wrte well in high schl and an English teacher recgnized this and advised him t keep n writing n matter what happened t him. “It’s what yu d, ” she said.
He drpped ut f high schl at 17 and jined the army. After finishing his service, he entered a dark perid in his life. Myers began writing at night t pull himself thrugh that miserable time. In an essay published in The New Yrk Times earlier this year, Myers described hw a shrt stry by James Arthur Baldwin helped change the curse f his life. “I didn’t lve the stry, but I was lifted by it, ” he wrte, “fr it tk place in Harlem, and it was a stry cncerned with black peple like thse I knew. By humanizing the peple wh were like me, Baldwin’s stry als humanized me. The stry gave me a permissin that I didn’t knw I needed, the permissin t write abut my wn landscape, my wn map.”
“I write bks fr the trubled by I nce was, ” he wrte, “and fr the by wh lives within me still.”

During a decline in turism, ne natinal park in Thailand has seen a dramatic rise in “visitrs” recently. S many are the hermit crabs (寄居蟹) flding int the therwise empty beaches f Kh Lanta that shells (贝壳) fr them t live in have becme in shrt supply.
The Thai gvernment mved quickly t ease the husing shrtage, launching a public appeal fr empty shells that netted ver 200 kg. On December 5 these were distributed arund the park in a ceremny.
Hermit crabs rely n shells t prtect their sft bdies, mving t larger shells as they grw. On Kh Lanta and the surrunding smaller islands, their rapid increase seems t be a natural phenmenn, rather than directly related t the absence f turists. But the shrtage f shells may be man-made: pretty nes have lng been gathered t be sld as gds. Crabs had begun t make d with ptential death-traps such as plastic caps and bttles.
The shell drive was part f a gvernment initiative t “regain the balance f nature”. “I have instructed all natinal parks t d whatever it takes,” says Varawut Silpa-archa, the minister fr natural resurces. His inspiratin cmes frm the pause in turism brught n by COVID-19. A ban n internatinal visitrs and the clsure f natinal parks have helped nature recver, bringing endangered leatherback turtles back nt Thai beaches. In the castal prvinces f Phang Nga and Phuket, turtles have laid the largest number f eggs fr 20 years.
The gvernment has decided t try t cpy the shrt break frced n it by COVID-19 in future. Frm nw n, all natinal parks will be required t clse fr a shrt perid during the ff-seasn and t limit the number f turists thrugh a reservatin system when they are pen. Althugh such restrictins mean reduced earnings frm turism in the shrt term, in the lnger run mre parks may help t keep the turists cming.

Artificial intelligence (AI) still can’t see the future, but a new algrithm (算法) may cme clse: using nthing but written mvie summaries, the AI can cnsistently tell which films will play well－r awfully－t critics and audiences. If the mdel can be further imprved, it culd ne day help prducers predict whether a mvie will be a failure at the bx ffice, befre it’s even made.
T test several mdels, researchers used plt summaries f 42,306 mvies frm all ver the wrld, many cllected frm Wikipedia. The mdels brke the summaries by sentence and used smething called sentiment (情感) analysis t analyze each ne. Sentences cnsidered “psitive”, such as “Thr lves his hammer”, wuld receive a rating clser t psitive ne. And sentences that were cnsidered “negative”, like “Thr gets in a fight” wuld be rated clser t negative ne.
Generally, successful mvies such as 1951’s Alice in Wnderland－which scred 80% n the mvie-rating website Rtten Tmates－have frequent waves in sentiment; unsuccessful nes, such as 2009’s The Limits f Cntrl, vary less. It’s nt imprtant whether the films begin r end happily, the researchers say. What’s imprtant is that the sentiments change frequently.
The sentiment ratings in each summary were then simplified int a single scre t reflect hw ften the sentiment changed. The researchers tested three different methds f arriving at a final scre. All three culd predict fairly accurately whether a mvie wuld be unppular, and ne methd wrked especially well fr guessing which thrillers and cmedies reviewers wuld hate.
The methds were nt as efficient at guessing which mvies wuld succeed, but they still predicted the results mre accurately than randm chance. In the future, the researchers say their methds culd be bettered t predict the amunt a mvie culd earn at the bx ffice and help prducers decide which mvies t invest in. The system’s fair judgment might give an advantage t less well-knwn writers, the researchers add. It culd als ptentially save the public frm having t sit thrugh films like Jaws: The Revenge, which nline critics and audience alike rate as terrible.
22. Hw can AI help fresee the future f mvies?
A. By testing plt mdels.B. By using sentiment analysis.
C. By writing summaries.D. By cnsulting critics and audiences.
23. What is the key factr fr a successful mvie accrding t the researchers?
A. A happy ending. B. Famus mvie stars.
C. A well-knwn prducer.D. Frequent sentiment changes.
24. What benefit will the methds pssibly bring?
A. Helping prducers invest wisely.B. Assessing a mvie's quality accurately.
C. Increasing bx ffice earnings.D. Prviding written summaries fr critics.
25. What’s the researchers’ attitude t the mdel?
A. Dubtful.B. Cautius. C. Optimistic. D. Ambiguus.

Handwritten thank-yu letters are such a simple way f making ther peple feel gd, it is strange that s few peple write them anymre. At wrk, a thank-yu letter t emplyees is unbelievably effective.

Thirdly, they have frgtten the strange human truth that almst everyne wuld d almst anything in return fr a few wrds f appreciatin.
In these days f such busy schedules and peple running all ver the place and trying t get ahead, smetimes we frget the simplest things in life are the mst pwerful and rewarding. Yu need t think t yurself abut a time smene sent yu a thank-yu and hw much it meant t yu. 30
A. He then writes them a thank-yu letter.

F. Always remember t “D t thers whatever yu wuld like them t d t yu!”
