Maria Sibylla Merian
Tday, children can explain hw a caterpillar(毛毛虫) turns int a butterfly. But there was a time when n ne knew this—nt even scientists. Thanks t Maria Sibylla Merian, we knw the truth abut these beautiful winged insects. Merian was fascinated by insects, and she began cllecting, studying, and drawing them when she was as yung as 13. It was thrugh her study f caterpillars that she discvered the truth abut their life cycles.

Beryl Markham was quite incredible in nt just aviatin but several ther industries, including hrse racing. In 1936, at age 33, Markham became the first wman t fly acrss the Atlantic alne frm the east t the west, nnstp.

Kenny Lake Schl in Cpper Center, Alaska, is small. Jennifer Hdges is a third, furth and fifth grade teacher. She says her three-grade class sits nly at desks fr 20 minutes a day. They d a lt f practical learning, such as raising Ch salmn(鲑鱼) frm egg t yung fish and then releasing them int a lake.
It’s thrugh a prgram called Salmn in the Classrm, established by the Alaska Department f Fish and Game. Many students already have experience fishing salmn, which is a staple(主食) in Native Alaskan cmmunities. “It’s really a delicate balance because we are dealing with traditins and culture f the Native peple,” Hdges says. “This is their land, this is their salmn. And s we have t really be part f that.”
During the mnths when the salmn are in the classrm, students like t sit by the tank t bserve. They like t calculate when the salmn will turn frm eggs t yung fish based n the temperature f the tank. T them, it’s nt practicing math prblems: it’s predicting the future.
“We always take a guess at when they will hatch frm their eggs first,” says Liam, a student. “It takes math because yu have t keep track f their temperature and calculate. I’m gd at math s I usually get it right.”
Since Hdges and her students live in such a rural area, there aren’t many field trips. But each year in May, she takes her students n the Salmn Field Trip, where they get t release the salmn they’ve raised in class.
They will name the fish, then release them int the wild and never see them again. But it’s nt sad: it’s the highlight f the year. “The best part is getting t release them after watching them hatch frm eggs, grw up and take care f them,” says Fisher, a student.
“The salmn have turned frm being just fish that they catch t eat, t fish that they are cnnecting t,” says Hdges. “With this prject, they have a whle different perspective.”
24. What can we learn frm the first paragraph?
A. Hdges supprts learning frm practice.
B. Hdges teaches an hur a day.
C. Kenny Lake Schl is in the city centre.
D. Ch salmn usually lives in the sea.
25. What might be Hdges’ purpse f raising salmn in the classrm?
A. T help students better understand lcal traditins.
B. T get the yuth invlved in cmmunity activities.
C. T attract mre visitrs t experience native cultures.
D. T meet the demand f all schls in Alaskan area.
26. What are the mst impressive fr the students?
A. Offering the fish names.B. Freeing the salmn int the wild.
C. Sitting at desks fr 20 minutes.D. Calculating when eggs will hatch.
27. What can be the suitable title fr the text?

Fr mst peple, the thught f having t watch themselves wrk ut is nt an attractive ne. Yet as any gym-ger knws, there are always sme peple wh like t enjy their reflectin in the flr-length mirrrs. It is perhaps these particular keep-fit lvers wh are mst excited abut the latest trend in hme exercise—smart fitness mirrrs.
These are 180cm r s tall, high-tech mirrrs that cntain a cmputer, hk up(连接) t the Internet, and als wrk as a vide screen. The idea is that peple cnnect with an nline trainer, wh then appears n the mirrr alng with their reflectin.
On the mre advanced devices the mirrr is equipped with cameras, speakers and numerus sensrs cnnected t AI, s the trainer can watch peple’s mvements, and prvide imprvements and changes. On the simpler mirrrs the vide and sund are just ne-way—peple can see and hear the trainer, but nt the ther way arund. Lessns are typically nt live; instead, peple can access int a library f nline wrkut vides. Whether yu g fr a higher-spec(高规格) mirrr, r a simpler ne, yu typically pay at least $1,300 fr it, and then a mnthly subscriptin.
But is there any actual advantage in being able t watch yurself wrk ut?
Clleen Lgan, the US wner f bth Nrdic Track and PrFrm, says, “Seeing themselves in the mirrr allws the users t crrect their frm r psitin, s they get the best pssible benefits f strength exercises and reduce mistakes that culd lead t injuries”.
Hwever, Dr. Anthny Papathmas, a sprts and fitness psychlgist says there is value t this argument, but that he als has sme cncerns. He said, “Hw peple wh are nt cnfident abut their bdy image feel abut the mirrr gets me in a fret. It may be a prblem fr thse new t exercise and lking t make a lifestyle change. Even fr regular exercisers, there are many wh experience bdy dysmrphia(变形) r eating disrders, and fr them, seeing a reflectin thrughut their exercise might be trubling.”
28. What des paragraph 2 mainly tell us abut smart fitness mirrrs?
A. Their target users.B. Their wide ppularity.
C. Their basic functins.D. Their cmplex structure.
29. What can be the benefit fr exercisers frm simpler fitness mirrrs?
A. Having live wrkut lessns.B. Exercising with ther partners.
C. Taking advantage f wrkut vides.D. Learning frm sme trainers at nce.
30. What des Clleen Lgan think f the mirrr?
A. It makes mistakes smetimes.B. It culd bring injuries t its users.
C. It is necessary fr strength exercises.D. It helps users exercise mre prperly.
31. Which f the fllwing best explains “in a fret” underlined in the last paragraph?
A. Excited.B. Wrried.C. Satisfied.D. Shcked.

There are 7,000 dcumented languages currently spken acrss the wrld, but half f them culd be endangered. It is predicted that 1,500 knwn languages may n lnger be spken by the end f this century.
Researchers analyzed thusands f languages t identify factrs that put endangered nes at risk. The findings highlight a link between higher levels f schling and language lss, as reginally dminant languages taught in class ften make indigenus(土著的) tngues less imprtant. Additinally, the density(密集) f rads in an area is als t blame. “We fund that the mre rads there are, cnnecting cuntries t cities, and villages t twns, the higher the risk f languages being endangered. It’s as if rads are helping dminant languages eat ther smaller languages,” said Prfessr Brmham, c-authr f the study.
The study, published in Nature, Eclgy and Evlutin, estimates ne language is currently lst within every three-mnth perid. But levels f language lss culd actually triple in the next 40 years, with at least ne language per mnth disappearing unless measures are taken.
“When a language is lst, we lse s much f ur human cultural diversity,” said Prfessr Brmham. “Luckily, many f the languages predicted t be lst this century still have fluent speakers, s there is still the chance t invest in supprting cmmunities t restre indigenus languages.”
There are many Internet sites and apps t help new speakers learn languages like Spanish, English and Chinese, but these nw extend t specialist apps designed t teach endangered languages r help preserve them. Ma! Iwaidja, fr example, is an app that enables thse wrking with speakers f the Iwaidja indigenus Australian language t recrd wrds, phrases and translatins. Anther initiative is the Rsetta Prject, a glbal cperatin f language specialists and native speakers wrking t build an pen-access digital library f human languages.
The UNESCO Internatinal Decade f Indigenus Languages (IDIL 2022–2032), which begins this year, als aims t engage the glbal cmmunity with the critical issue f language lss.
32. Which f the fllwing is putting endangered languages at risk?
A. Their histry.B. The way they are taught.
C. Expsure t the wider wrld.D. The influence f climate.
33. What d we knw abut language lss accrding t the study?
A. It is getting wrse.B. It will lead t human death.
C. It is hard t predict.D. It is ut f ur cntrl.
34. In Prfessr Brmham’s pinin, which field is affected mst by language lss?
A. Ecnmy.B. Technlgy.C. Glbalizatin.D. Cultural diversity.
35. Hw des the authr intrduce the ways t preserve indigenus languages?
A. By listing figures.B. By making definitins.
C. By making cmparisns.D. By giving examples.

Reasnable peple shuld nt have blind faith in the medical prfessin. 36 We have t check ut the medicine we take. We have t ask fr secnd and even third pinins. We must d sme research. We have t use ur cmmn sense and be infrmed abut ur health care.
While it is true that mdern Western medicine has risks, we shuldn’t reject it ttally. 37 Mst peple wh get gd medical care are healthier and live lnger.
If this is the case why has “alternative” health care becme s ppular in Nrth America and Eurpe? Often the fear f surgery mtivates peple t lk fr these alternatives.

Peple dn’t think alternative care wuld kill anyne by mistake. 39 N ne wants t g t a dctr in a cld hspital clinic. Since sme dctrs dn’t have a nice “bedside manner”, peple like the attentin they get frm alternative healers.
40 All dctrs and healers are human beings wh can make mistakes. They can miss things and waste valuable time. N matter what happens, we have t think abut all f the different ptins. Remember, there are millins f patients wh are alive and well tday because f “cnventinal” Western medicine.
A. Sme alternative treatments are ineffective.
B. In additin everyne wants t be treated warmly.
C. We have t realize that there will be risks in almst any treatment.

My mther’s gift
A dandelin(蒲公英) in my dictinary always reminds me f my lunchtimes with my mther.
When I was in the third grade, I was picked t be the princess in the schl play, and fr weeks my mther had practised my lines with me. But n matter hw easily I delivered them at hme, as sn as I stepped nstage, every wrd disappeared frm my head. Finally, my teacher tk me aside. She explained that she had written a narratr’s part t the play, and asked me t switch rles.
I didn’t tell my mther what had happened when I went hme fr lunch that day. But she sensed my unease, and instead f suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted t walk in the yard.
It was a lvely spring day and the rse leaves were turning green. We culd see yellw dandelins ppping thrugh the grass in bunches, as if a painter had tuched ur landscape with a little bit f gld.
I watched my mther casually bend dwn by ne f the dandelins. “I think I’m ging t dig up all these weeds,” she said, suddenly pulling a flwer up by its rts. “Frm nw n, we’ll have nly rses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelins,” I prtested. “All flwers are beautiful—even dandelins.” My mther lked at me seriusly. “Yes, every flwer gives pleasure in its wn way, desn’t it?” she asked thughtfully. I ndded, pleased that I had wn her ver. “And that is true f peple t,” she added. “Nt everyne can be a princess, but there is n shame in that.”
Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started t cry as I tld her what had happened.
“But yu will be a beautiful narratr,” she said, reminding me f hw much I lved t read stries alud t her. “The narratr’s part is as imprtant as the part f a princess.”
Over the next few weeks, with her cnstant encuragement, I learned t take pride in the rle. Lunchtimes were spent reading ver my lines and talking abut what I wuld wear.
