When asked about her childhood in the documentary Alive Inside, a 90-year-old woman with
dementia replies,“I’ve forgotten so much.” Film-maker Michael Rossato-Bennett then plays music
from her past for her. “That’s Louis Armstrong,” she says. “He’s singing When the Saints Go
Marching In and it takes me back to my school days.” She then recalls exact details from her life.
Why does it happen? Music tends to accompany events that arouse emotions or otherwise
make strong impressions on us—such as weddings and graduations. These kinds of experiences
form strong memories, and the music and memories likely become intertwined(紧密相连) in our
neural(神经的) networks, according to Julene Johnson, a professor at the University of California.
Movements, such as dancing, also often pair with our experience of music, which can help form
memories. Even many years later,hearing the music can bring back memories of these long-past
events.
As Alive Inside shows,music has this power even for many people with dementia.
Researchers note that the brain areas that process and remember music are typically less damaged
by dementia than other areas, and they think it may explain the phenomenon.
They also pay attention to elderly people with dementia, especially those in nursing homes.
“It’s possible those long-term memories are still there,” Johnson says,“but people just have a
harder time accessing them because they’re in a strange place and there are not a lot of
circumstances in which someone could pull out those memories.”
Johnson also notes that music is not universally useful for all people with dementia since
there are some people with dementia whose brain area that recognizes music is damaged.
Despite music’s apparent benefits, few studies have explored its influence on memory recall
in people with dementia. “It’s really an untapped area,” Johnson says. Petr Janata is a researcher
investigating the topic of music and memory. He says that scientists still do not have the answers
to why and how music reawakens memories in people with dementia, but this phenomenon is real
and it’s just a matter of time before it’s fully borne out by scientific research.
24. What helps the old woman in Alive Inside recall her childhood?
A. The description of her school days
B. A film she watched before.
C. A song she listened to before.
D. The voice of her childhood friend.
25. What benefit of music is discussed in paragraph 2?
A. It helps make lasting memories.
B. It helps cure patients of dementia.
C. It helps arouse emotions in special events.
D. It helps remember dance movements easily.
26. According to Johnson, what should we do for elderly people with dementia?
A. Send them to nursing homes for good care.
B. Provide familiar environments for them.

C. Play lots of classical music to them.
D. Talk to them about their past.
27. What do we know about the study into music and memory recall in people with dementia?
A. It is criticized by Petr Janata.
B. It is a ground-breaking study.
C. It is supported by solid evidence.
D. It applies to all people with dementia.

Chinese traditional painting and dance are two vital parts of the art world. But what about
when they meet each other?
This year, a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape
Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became a hit.
According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese
painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains《千里江山图》( ). Created by Song Dynasty painter
Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its huge size, rich coloration and the
expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and
groupings of infinite rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling water”.
When the dancers moved elegantly, audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains
and rivers. “It brings me a pure experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an
‘exhibition’. Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a
review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still wow people as they did
long ago.”
Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later.
In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows pay attention to Chinese traditional culture
and have received warm welcome. As for why, it is due to people's great love for traditional
culture.
“The younger generations have grown up with a more open mindset. They hug Chinese
culture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told
China Daily.
28. What is the function of paragraph I in the passage?
A. To present a common phenomenon.
B. To ask readers’a question.
C. To describe the art world.
D. To introduce the topic.
29. What can we learn about the painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains from the text?
A. It was painted in several bright colors.
B. It shows natural beauty vividly.
C. It was created over a thousand years ago.

D. It is of small size but includes great details.
30. Why are shows about Chinese traditional culture becoming popular according to Yao Wei?
A. People are more open to traditional culture.
B. People are happy to see new forms of art.
C. Chinese culture has been spreading around the world.
D. People have gained more access to traditional culture.
31. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Passion for Chinese Traditional Arts.
B. Art Coming Alive Through Dance.
C. Beauty Presented in Poetic Dance.
D. Highlights in Traditional Chinese Culture.

Alzheimer's AI
An estimated 5.7 million people in the U.S. have Alzheimer's disease-the most common
type of dementia(痴呆）－and that number is expected to more than double by 2050. Early
diagnosis is crucial for patients to benefit from the few therapies available. But no scans can
deliver a conclusive diagnosis while a person is alive; instead doctors have to conduct numerous
and complicated clinical and neuropsychological tests.So there is growing interest in developing
artificial intelligence to identify Alzheimer's based on brain imaging.
Researchers at the University of California,San Francisco, have now successfully trained an
AI algorithm(算法）to recognize one of the early signs of Alzheimer's-a reduction in the brain's
glucose（葡萄糖）consumption-in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
The algorithm accurately predicted an eventual Alzheimer's diagnosis in nearly all the test
cases, according to the study. In PET imaging, a very small amount of a radioactive compound are
injected into the body, producing three-dimensional images of metabolism(新陈代谢）,circulation
and other cellular activities. PET is well suited for an AI diagnostic tool because Alzheimer's leads
to subtle changes in the brain's metabolism that begin years before neural(神经的） tissue starts to
go downhill, says study co-author Jae Ho Sohn,a radiologist at UCSF. These changes are "very
hard for radiologists to pick up,"he notes.
The algorithm was trained and tested on 2,100 PET brain images from about 1,000 people 55
years and older. The images came from a 12-year study that tracked people who would ultimately
be diagnosed with Alzheimer's, as well as those with mild memory declines and healthy control
participants. The algorithm was trained on 90 percent of the data and tested on the remaining 10
percent. It was then retested on a second, independent data set from 40 patients monitored for 10
years. The algorithm was highly sensitive and was able to recognize 81 percent of the patients in
the first test group and 100 percent in the second who would be diagnosed with Alzheimer's six
years later, on average. The findings were published in February in Radiology.
The algorithm is based on "deep learning ,a machine-learning technique that uses artificial
高二年级英语试卷第 6页共 10页




neural networks programmed to learn from examples. "This is one of the first
promising,preliminary(初步的） applications of deep learning to the diagnosis of Alzheimer's,"
says Christian Salvatore, a physicist at Italy's National Research Council, who was not involved in
the study. “The model performs very well when identifying patients with mild or late diagnoses",
he says, “but catching it in the earliest stages remains one of the most critical open issues in this
field."
32. People are increasingly interested in using AI to identify Alzheimer's because______
A. the number of people suffering from dementia is more than doubling
B. diagnostic methods that are both reliable and convenient are in need
C. there are only a limited number of effective therapies for the patients
D. diagnosing Alzheimer's disease through AI is still an unexplored area
33. What can we learn about PET imaging?
A. It recognizes the worsening of the neural tissue.
B. It reduces the glucose consumption in the brain.
C. It changes the pattern of the brain's metabolism.
D. It photographs various kinds of cellular activities.
34. According to Paragraph 4,_________.
A. 90% of the people in the study were trained on the algorithm
B. the participants in the study consist of people both young and old
C. 81% of the people in the first test group were diagnosed with Alzheimer's
D. the algorithm managed to recognize all the patients in the second test group
35. What can be inferred from Paragraph 5?
A. The algorithm serves as a promising treatment of Alzheimer's.
B. Deep learning has been widely applied in diagnosing Alzheimer's.
C. To detect Alzheimer's in its earliest stages calls for more exploration.
D. Whether to use the model to detect Alzheimer's remains a critical issue.

Priscilla and I had been classmates for several years but we never really liked each other. We
had different groups of friends. Priscilla’s friends were very good at sports while my friends and I
performed well in our studies. Priscilla was our school’s top athlete and was constantly praised by
our teachers. I was jealous of her athletic abilities and her popularity at school. Maliciously (怀有
恶意地 ), I thought she was just manipulating the teachers and her friends with her charm. I felt
she was an insincere and shallow person. Therefore, I wanted to have nothing to do with her.
One afternoon, our class attended an adventure camp. One of the activities we participated in
was rock climbing. I was very keen to learn rock climbing. We practiced first on a rock climbing
wall, and once we had mastered the skills, we could go on to climb the cliff in the forest reserve.
Rock climbers must work with a partner. While one person climbs, the partner must hold on
tightly to the other end of the rope for safety. If the climber falls, the partner is responsible for
stopping the fall.
The trainer assigned Priscilla to be my partner! I was very upset. How could I trust Priscilla?
She would not stop me from falling. She would probably wish that I would fall. However, there
was nothing I could do because the trainer wouldn’t allow us to change partners. So I climbed and
Priscilla held on to the safety rope.
While climbing, a wave of joy and confidence came over me. I cautiously made my way up
the wall, caught each notch (凹槽) above tightly, and pulled myself up. Every muscle in my body
was shaking from the strain of climbing but I wanted to prove to everyone that I was a better rock
climber than Priscilla. Thinking about outperforming Priscilla, my focus on climbing left me as I
reached for a notch that was too far from my reach. I took a risk and jumped up to grab it.

1.续写词数应为 150左右；
