Last year, there was an oil leak at Katy’s beach. We volunteered at the beach to clean up the oil and help the birds that were caught in the oil. When we arrived at the beach that day, the water was covered with oil and the white sand had turned black. It was an ugly sight. At first, the rescue workers would not let us on the beach. We had to watch from a distance. We watched as they put a huge machine in the water. The machine kept the oil from spreading. Once they stopped the oil, we were allowed on the beach to help. Each of us was given a broom. We swept the oil into a pile. The workers took it away in big trucks. We all worked very hard that day to restore the beach. Once the oil was removed, the birds that had been caught in the oil had to be helped. The workers showed us how to remove the oil from their wings. Then the birds could fly away to safety. We were very proud of ourselves that day. We helped save our beautiful beach and the birds who visit it.

The UNESCO World Heritage List is a prestigious honour awarded to sites of outstanding universal value around the world. Did you know there are 1,157 UNESCO World Heritage Sites spanning across 167 countries? We’ve picked out our top 4 for you to visit below.
The Acropolis, Greece
The Acropolis is an ancient castle that stands proud in the Greek city of Athens. Back in the fifth century BC after battle with the Persians, the plans of Pericles came to life under the influence of Pheidias, the sculptor. It then became a place for thought and art to flourish, where symbols of classical spirit and civilisation came alive.
Historic centre of Rome, Italy
According to Roman mythology, the Eternal City was founded in 753 BC and became the capital of the mighty Roman Empire. Rome is home to a number of attractions including the Forum, the Pantheon and the Colosseum! This World Heritage site contains the whole historic centre within the city walls and reflects the influence of the Renaissance and Baroque periods in making it one of Italy’s most popular cities.
Ayutthaya Historical Park, Thailand
The historic city of Ayutthaya in Thailand was founded around 1350 and was subsequently destroyed in the 18th century by the Burmese. What’s left today is the ruins and some key highlights include the Buddhist temples of Wat Ratchaburana, Wat Mahathat and Wat Phra Sri Sanphet. The area is home to the remains of tall prang (reliquary towers) and should not be missed.
Cultural landscape of Bali, Indonesia
The landscape in Bali is unlike anything else on Earth. Consisting of five rice terraces (梯田) and water temples covering 19,500 hectares, the cultural landscape takes your breath away. This site gains honour through an ancient farming ceremony dating back to the 9th century known as subak. This concept reflects the spirit, the human world and nature, also known as Tri Hita Karana.
21. What might have happened in Greece in the 5th century BC?
A. Greece became famous for its castles. B. Pheidias became a sculptor.
C. Greece fought against Persians. D. The Greek spirit disappeared.
22. What is subak?
A. A rice terrace. B. A cultural landscape. C. A water temple. D. An agricultural ceremony.

A girl of 12 has raised more than £8,000 for a cancer charity by running three kilometres every day for a year in honour of her grandad. Emily Talman, of Birkenhead, Merseyside, was inspired by the Daily Mirror’s “Pride of Britain Awards” to take on the challenge. She started running on November 8 last year after Grandad Pete Talman recovered from prostate (前列腺) cancer.
Emily said she did it for all grandads. She added: “I remember watching the ‘Pride of Britain Awards’ last year, when my grandad was better, and I wanted to do something to help other families who are going through what we did.”
Pete, 69, was diagnosed with cancer in 2019. He had successful surgery to remove his prostate the following July. “My grandad always told me, ‘Never give up, never give in’ and that’s what I’ve told myself during my challenge. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world to still have him in my life.”
Emily had to face all weather for her runs. But she said thinking about families who have lost loved ones to cancer kept her going. The determined schoolgirl, who has three sisters, added, “I always think about the people who can’t be with their grandad, dad, uncle, or brother because of prostate cancer.”
Liverpool fan Emily even made time on Christmas Day and her 12th birthday on August 15 for her runs. She plans to “have a little break from running” but hopes to complete 100 more days every year in the future to keep spreading awareness of prostate cancer.
Parents Ricky Talman and Stacey Williams told of their pride in her. Ricky said, “It was a tough challenge but she’s just been a warrior and everyone in the family is so proud of her.”

A research team led by the University of Göttingen has shed new light on the importance of plant roots for belowground life, particularly in the tropics (热带).
Millions of small creatures working hard in a single hectare of soil including earthworms, springtails, mites, insects, and other arthropods (节肢动物) are crucial for decomposition and soil health. For a long time, it was believed that leaf litter is the primary resource for these animals. However, this recent study is the first to provide proof that resources from plant roots drive soil animal communities in the tropics.
The researchers divided plots (地块) within natural ecosystems and separated the plots from accessing plant roots with a plastic barrier. Their study included rainforest, as well as both rubber and oil palm plantations in Sumatra, Indonesia. They removed all dead leaves, the main resource of decomposer animals, from other experimental plots to compare them.
They found that without living roots, animal abundance in the rainforest plots decreases by 42 percent and in plantations by 30 percent. By contrast, removing the dead leaves has almost no effect on the animals in the underlying soil, but decreased the total animal abundance (in the soil and dead leaves) by 60 percent in rainforest and rubber plantations due to physical litter removal.
The study also revealed that living roots are especially important for the smaller soil animals, such as mites and springtails. Interestingly, after adding artificial plastic leaves in oil palm plantations, abundance of some animal groups-such as prostigmata-increased, highlighting that improving habitat structure can promote soil food networks and the services they provide.
“The study provides new perspectives for the management of the resources provided by plant litter in tropical plantations, contributing to soil animal biodiversity. This is important to develop sustainable agricultural landscapes in the tropics,” says Professor Stefan Scheu, head of the Animal Ecology Working Group at the University of Göttingen.
28. What role do arthropods play in the tropics?
A. Making soil healthy. B. Slowing global warming.
C. Feeding other animals. D. Providing nutrition for plants.
29. Why were dead leaves removed from some plots?
A. To make room for crops. B. To keep the plots clean.
C. To improve the soil condition. D. To make comparisons.
30. Which of the following may affect the animal abundance of a plot?
A. Variety of plants. B. Roots of plants. C. Height of plants. D. Quantities of plants.
31. According to Stefan, what matters to sustainable agricultural landscapes?
A. Biodiversity of soil animals. B. Habitat structure of living things.
C. Resources provided by animal waste. D. New perspectives of management
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项研究发现植物根系的资源驱动了热带地区的土壤动物群落，对地下的生物很重要。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Millions of small creatures working hard in a single hectare of soil including earthworms, springtails, mites, insects, and other arthropods (节肢动物) are crucial for decomposition and soil health.(数百万的小生物在一公顷的土壤中辛勤工作，包括蚯蚓、弹尾虫、螨虫、昆虫和其他节肢动物，它们对土壤的分解和土壤的健康至关重要)”可知，土壤中的小生物对分解土壤和土壤健康至关重要，所以节肢动物在热带地区扮演着使土壤健康的角色。故选A项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“They removed all dead leaves, the main resource of decomposer animals, from other experimental plots to compare them.(他们从其他试验田移走了所有的枯叶，以进行比较，枯叶是分解动物的主要来源)”可知，移除地块中的所有枯叶是为了进行比较。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They found that without living roots, animal abundance in the rainforest plots decreases by 42 percent and in plantations by 30 percent.(他们发现，如果没有活根，雨林地块的动物数量减少了42%，种植园的动物数量减少了30%)”可知，没有活根的地下生物在不同的地块都有不同程度的降低，再根据“By contrast, removing the dead leaves has almost no effect on the animals in the underlying soil, but decreased the total animal abundance (in the soil and dead leaves) by 60 percent in rainforest and rubber plantations due to physical litter removal. (相比之下，清除枯叶对下层土壤中的动物几乎没有影响，但由于物理清除凋落物，雨林和橡胶园的动物总数(土壤和枯叶)减少了60%)”可知，相比之下，去除枯叶对地下动物几乎没有影响，由此可知，影响地块动物丰度的应该是植物的根。故选B项。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“The study provides new perspectives for the management of the resources provided by plant litter in tropical plantations, contributing to soil animal biodiversity. This is important to develop sustainable agricultural landscapes in the tropics(该研究为热带人工林凋落物资源的管理提供了新的视角，有助于改善土壤动物的生物多样性。这对于发展热带地区的可持续农业景观非常重要)”可知，土壤动物的生物多样化对热带地区发展可持续性农业景观重要的因素，由此可知，土壤动物的多样化对可持续农业景观很重要。故选A项。
D
A Finnish study coordinated by the Centre for Population Health Research at the University of Turku shows that accumulated adverse (不利的) psychosocial factors in childhood are associated with worse midlife learning and memory, and specifically child’s self-regulation and social adjustment.
Along with aging population, the problem of cognitive deficits (缺陷) is growing. Thus, revealing the role of various exposures beginning from childhood is important in order to bring tools for cognitive health promotion. An adverse psychosocial environment in childhood may harm cognitive development, but the associations for adulthood cognitive function remain obscure. Results from a longitudinal (纵向的) Finnish study show that unfavorable childhood psychosocial factors may be linked to poorer learning and memory in midlife.
“Previous evidence on adverse psychosocial factors and cognitive outcomes comes from short-term studies focusing on single psychosocial factor or adversity. This study is a prospective longitudinal study focusing on the associations between multiple childhood psychosocial factors and adulthood cognitive function,” says Doctoral Researcher Amanda Nurmi from the Centre for Population Health Research at the University of Turku and Turku University Hospital.
Cognitive performance was measured at the age of 34-49. Of over 2,000 participants with cognitive function data, 1,191 also had complete data on childhood psychosocial factors. Socioeconomic and emotional environment, parental health behaviours, stressful events, self-regulation, and social adjustment were questioned in the baseline. The results suggest that accumulation of unfavorable psychosocial factors in childhood may associate with poorer cognitive function in midlife. Specifically, poor self-regulatory behavior and social adjustment in childhood are associated with poorer learning ability and memory approximately 30 years later.
“The results of our study can be employed to develop targeted interventions directed towards those families with accumulated negative psychosocial factors. Interventions towards promoting a better psychosocial environment in childhood might have carry-over associations on cognitive function and thus be reflected also in future generations through parenting attitudes,” Nurmi says.
32. What is the purpose of revealing the role of various exposures from childhood?
A. To provide data for scientific research. B. To record children’s growth environment.
C. To find means to improve cognitive health. D. To stress the importance of surroundings.
33. Which can best replace the underlined word “obscure” in paragraph 2?
A. Obvious. B. Secure. C. Efficient. D. Unclear.
34. What does Amanda Nurmi mainly talk about in paragraph 3?
A. The disadvantages of the previous studies.
B. The number of participants in the new study.
C. The findings of the new study and the old ones.
D. The difference between the new study and the old ones.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Poor family, hard social adjustment.
B. Tough childhood, memory problem later.
C. With people aging, cognitive deficits growing.
D. Adverse surroundings, strong character forming.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究发现，童年时期的不良心理社会因素会影响中年学习和记忆力，特别是影响儿童的自我调节和社会适应能力。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Thus, revealing the role of various exposures beginning from childhood is important in order to bring tools for cognitive health promotion.(因此，揭示从童年开始的各种暴露的作用是重要的，以便为促进认知健康提供工具。)”可知，揭示来自于童年时期的各种接触是为了给提升健康认知提供工具，由此可知，这种做法是为了改善认知健康的方式。故选C项。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词前面的“An adverse psychosocial environment in childhood may harm cognitive development(儿童时期不良的社会心理环境可能会损害认知发展)”可知，儿童时期的不利的社会心理环境可能损伤认知发展，说明社会心理环境与认知发展是有关系的，再结合but可知，此后的内容与此处应为转折关系，结合选项以及所以划线单词所在的句子“but the associations for adulthood cognitive function remain obscure.(但与成年期认知功能的关联仍然obscure。)”以及下文“Results from a longitudinal (纵向的) Finnish study show that unfavorable childhood psychosocial factors may be linked to poorer learning and memory in midlife.(芬兰一项纵向研究的结果显示，不利的儿童心理社会因素可能与中年学习和记忆力较差有关。)”可知，芬兰一项纵向研究的结果显示，不利的儿童心理社会因素可能与中年学习和记忆力较差有关，并没有涉及到认知功能，由此可推知，儿童时期不良的社会心理环境与成年认知功能的关联是不清楚的，由此可知，该单词的意思是“不清楚的”。故选D项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Previous evidence on adverse psychosocial factors and cognitive outcomes comes from short-term studies focusing on single psychosocial factor or adversity.(先前关于不良社会心理因素和认知结果的证据来自于短期研究，主要关注单一社会心理因素或逆境。)”可知，此处介绍了以前的研究关注的内容，根据下文“This study is a prospective longitudinal study focusing on the associations between multiple childhood psychosocial factors and adulthood cognitive function(本研究是一项前瞻性的纵向研究，旨在探讨多种儿童心理社会因素与成年期认知功能之间的关系)”可知，这是这次研究关注的内容，由此可知，第三段Amanda Nurmi主要是将现在的研究与过去的研究进行了比较，寻求两者之间的不同。故选D项。

Eleven-year-old Kristina shouted on the phone. Vera, her mother, packing lunches for her two children, heard the shouting and dashed to Kristina. Kristina gave her the phone. Kristina was talking to her father at his doctor’s office in Moscow, Russia.
“Vlad, why is Kristina shouting?” began Vera in Russian.
“Vera this afternoon I must attend a conference at her school. But I cannot be there. I have an important meeting. Why don’t you attend it?” Vlad replied.
"How can I go?”
“You are not going to a forest. You’ll be fine!”
“I know, but I can’t speak English properly. It’s a rule at her school.”
“You can manage. GO!”
Vera turned to Kristina, “Kristina, your father is busy. I will come instead of him.”
Kristina shouted, “Mother, you can’t speak English. How can you come to the conference? NO!” She plowed through her mother and ran sobbing. But Vera convinced Kristina. As there was no option, she agreed and left for school.
Vera was depressed. She felt that if only she knew English, she could avoid such situations. But “how is it possible for me to learn English while balancing so many tasks?” Suddenly, she realized that Andrei was getting late, so she got him ready and walked him to school.
In the afternoon, Vera attended the conference at the school. All the teachers and staff gave a warm welcome to Vera. Kristina kept quieting her mother. All she said were phrases like, “You are embarrassing!” “Stop talking!” and “You do not know English!” Ignoring her daughter’s comments, Vera managed to keep her cool and finished the meeting.
After delivering a cake to a customer, Vera went home to start dinner. At home, she asked her mother-in-law where Kristina was. She said that Kristina had gone to study with her friends. While they were talking, Kristina walked in.
Vera asked, “Why did you go out? You can study at home, you know!”

But he laughed and said, “Well, if you knew English, Kristina would not have to suffer like this.” Then he added, “This food is delicious. At least you are good at something!” That night, Vera was tossing and turning as she thought about her hurt feelings. “Like father, like daughter. If my husband doesn’t respect me, then how can my children respect me? I must learn English. No matter how hard it may be, I must master English,” she thought.
The next day, she saw an advertisement from LCC, The London Language Center, on the TV. They offered English classes to newcomers. Vera called their number and signed up for a four-week course. Every day, she managed to attend the class. She grasped every chance to communicate in English. In the last week, she passed the test and announced the good news to the family in English. Kristina excitedly hugged her and said, “Congratulations, Mum! I am proud of you and sorry for what I said.” Vera smiled happily and felt, “With determination, anything is possible.”
