2. Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are a very imprtant part f Mexic’s ecsystem, but because f the ever-spreading city landscape, they
face all srts f serius dangers. That’s where 73-year-ld Catia Lattuf de Arida cmes in. As a self-taught hummingbird care-taker,
she devtes mst f her free time and resurces t nursing the tiny birds back t health. Her hme in Mexic City has becme knwn as
a hummingbird hspital
Catia’s stry as a hummingbird nurse began in 2011, at a very dificult mment in her life. At that time, she fcused n her battle
with cancer and fell int a depressin (抑郁) . She was walking n the strect ne day when she nticed a hummingbird that had suffered
a serius eye injury. The kindhearted wman tk it hme and named it Gucci. She managed t nurse Gucci back t health, but she said

3. In his senir year f high schl, Wei Fangjie happened t see a pster fr recruiting PLA Air Frce pilts. “The pilts n the
pster lked really cl, and I gt t knw that a pilt is knwn as a prfessin f the brave. S, I decided t give it a try,” said Wei, 26,
wh nw wrks as a flight instructr at the Air Frce Aviatin University.
In 2015, Wei was admitted int the Air Frce Aviatin University and became an Air Frce pilt student. Accrding t Wei, pilts
need t nt nly study aviatin thery but als practice difficult aerbatics (飞行特技) like rlls and lps. These mves require strng
resistance t g-frces. “T d a lp, a pilt has t bear abut 3g f lad, which feels like three times their bdy weight pressing dwn
n them,” said Wei. T build this resistance, they ften d strength training like weighted squats. They als use special equipment like a
spinning ladder (旋梯) t vercme dizziness.
Despite all the training, becming a tp PLA Air Frce pilt remains a tugh jb. “During flight, pilts must carefully decide hw t
land, especially at night, and maintain psitin during frmatin flight,” explained Wei. He added that the key t these skills lies in
cntinuus practice.
In the wrld f aviatin, a balanced mindset and quick thinking are very imprtant. One f Wei’s mst unfrgettable experiences
was dealing with illusins (错觉) during a frmatin fight up abve the cluds. All he culd see in frnt f him was the lead aircraft and
cluds. “I felt like I was turning all the time, but my instruments shwed that my flight was level,” said Wei. “In such situatins,
trusting instruments is key t making sund decisins.”
But what always remains cnstant is the great sense f freedm and pride that Wei feels as he flies his aircraft in the sky and lks
dwn at Earth frm abve. Nw, as an experienced flight instructr, Wei hpes t channel his passin fr aviatin int the “training and
develpment f a new generatin f skilled pilts s as t cntribute t the PLA Air Frce’s cmbat readiness.”
【小题1】What inspired Wei Fangjie t pursue a career as a pilt?
A．Meeting a flight instructr at schl.
C．Advice frm a high schl career advisr.
【小题2】Hw d pilts develp resistance t g-frces?
A．By practicing aerbatics.
B．His deep interest in aviatin technlgy.
D．Seeing a pster wanting PLA Air Frce pilts.
B．By getting rid f dizziness.
C．By flying with a spinning ladder.
D．By ding strength-building exercises.
【小题3】What is the key t mastering flying skills, accrding t Wei?
A．Quick thinking.
B．Frequent training.
C．A balanced mindset.
D．Overcming illusins.
【小题4】What is Wei’s current gal as a fight instructr?
A．Training a new generatin f skilled pilts.

4. Is frgiveness against ur human nature? T answer ur questin, we need t ask a further questin: What is the nature f ur
humanity? T put it in a simple way, peple cnsider tw cmpletely different views f humanity. The first view is abut dminance (统治)
and pwer. In an early paper n the psychlgy f frgiveness, Drll (1984) made the interesting claim that humans’ key nature is mre
aggressive (好斗的) than frgiving allws. Thse wh frgive are against their basic nature, much t their harm. In his pinin, frgivers
are giving up their well-being as they ffer kindness t thers, wh might then take advantage f them.
The secnd view fcuses n the theme f cperatin, mutual respect, and even lve as the basis f wh we are as humans.
Researchers find that t fully grw as human beings, we need bth t receive lve frm and ffer lve t thers. Withut lve, ur
cnnectins with a wide range f individuals in ur lives can fall apart. Even cmmn sense strngly suggests that the will t pwer ver
thers des nt make fr harmnius interactins. Fr example, hw well has slavery (奴隶制) wrked as a mde f scial harmny?
Frm this secnd viewpint f wh we are as humans, frgiveness plays a key rle in the bilgical and psychlgical integrity f
bth individuals and cmmunities because ne f the utcmes f frgiveness, shwn thrugh scientific studies, is the decreasing f
hate and the rebuilding f harmny. Frgiveness can break the cycle f anger. At least t the extent the peple frm whm yu are
keeping away accept yur lve and frgiveness and are prepared t make the required adjustments. Frgiveness can heal relatinships
and recnnect peple.
As an imprtant nte, when we take a classical philsphical view, that f Aristtle, we see the difference between ptentiality and
actuality. We are nt necessarily brn with the capbility t frgive, but instead with the ptential (潜能) t learn abut it and t grw in
ur ability t frgive. The actuality f frgiving, its actual behavir in unfriendly situatins, develps with practice.
【小题1】What is Drll’s idea abut frgiveness?
A．Peple shuld ffer kindness t thers.
B．Peple wh frgive can have their wn well-being affected.
C．Frgiveness depends n the nature f humanity.
D．Aggressive peple shuld learn t frgive.
【小题2】What des the example in Paragraph 2 display?
A．T frgive is t lve.
B．T fight is t grw.
C．T give is t receive.
D．T dminate is t harm.
【小题3】Which f the fllwing might the writer NOT agree with?
A．Frgiveness can help us stay calm and find inner peace.
B．Imprved relatinship can be ne f results frm frgiveness.
C．Frgiveness is vital t the bilgical and physical integrity f humans.
D．The peple accepting yur frgiveness may likely make pssible changes.
【小题4】What is message f the last paragraph?
A．Frgiveness is in ur nature.
B．Frgiveness grws with time.
D．It takes practice t frgive.
C．Actuality is based n ptentiality.
5. The Histry f the Autmbile
The autmbile, mre cmmnly knwn as the car, certainly cunts as ne f the greatest inventins in human histry.
【小题
1】
As t wh invented the autmbile, the answer is nt quite s clear-cut. While sme give credit t Karl Benz, wh patented the first
gas-pwered vehicle in 1886, thers give the praise t Gttlieb Daimelr. Incidentally, the tw inventrs’ cmpanies merge (合 并) in
1926 t frm the famus Mercedes-Benz.
【小题2】
It was Henry Frd wh designed a system f mass prductin that allwed him t prduce cars far mre cheaply,
which in turn meant he culd sell them at lwer prices. By 1927, 15 millin f Frd’s famus all-black Mdel Ts had been prduced.
Mass car wnership had becme a reality.
【小题3】
Inventrs were wrking n electric vehicles arund the same time that gas-pwered nes were being develped.
The first electric car was designed in 1884 by Thmas Parker, the same man wh electrified the Lndn Undergrund. By 1900, electric
vehicles were giving gas cars a run fr their mney. They were quiet, did nt give ff emissins, and were easier t drive, especially fr
wmen.
【小题4】
They were difficult t charge when mst peple’s hmes didn’t have electricity. They were als rather
expensive. In the end, Henry Frd’s cheap Mdel T put an end t interest in electric cars which didn’t becme ppular until the gas
shrtages and envirnmental cncerns f the late 20th century.

Nw, early in the 21st century, we find urselves n the brink f yet anther age in autmbile histry. Electric cars are set t make
the gas-guzzler (油 老 虎) ut f date.

【小题5】

A．But why were early electric cars nt ppular?
B．Hwever, they weren’t withut shrtcmings.
C．They were als ppular in Eurpean cuntries.
D．It allws peple t travel great distances quickly, safely and cheaply.
E．And self-driving cars may sn make human drivers a thing f the past.
F．At first, Eurpean mdels were far t expensive fr mst peple t buy.
G．Many peple think f electric vehicles as a new inventin, but actually that’s nt the case.

9. 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。
Sumik wrked with her mther in their vegetable garden every day. They made their living by selling the prduce frm their garden
at the market. Each day, Sumik carefully watered plants and pretended they were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s
prize flwers. In her heart, she wanted t grw chrysanthemums.
“Flish girl!” her mther lectured. “Flwers can’t be eaten!”
“But Mum, peple buy flwers.”
“City peple. N ne in ur pr village wastes mney.”
Sumik knew her mther was right. The nly persn in the village wh made mney selling flwers was Mrs. Higaki. Every year she
wn first prize at the Kyt Chrysanthemum Festival. Many peple whispered that Mrs. Higaki used magic t grw her chrysanthemums.
Hw else culd she win first prize twenty years in a rw?
Sumik admired Mrs. Higaki. If she culd sell flwers like Mrs. Higaki, she wuld be able t buy things fr her mther. But
chrysanthemums were expensive t start, and Sumik culd nly dream abut grwing them.
One day, Sumik visited Mrs. Higaki’s garden.“Mrs. Higaki, I wish I culd grw beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize like
yu,” said Sumik.

“Yu! Win a prize grwing flwers?”Mrs. Higaki laughed. “D yu knw what’s required t grw such flwers? The secret t
grwing them has been passed dwn t me frm past generatins f my family. And yu-a child-believe yu can cmpete against me?
Stick t vegetables, child. Leave flwers t thse wh knw the secret f flwers.”
Mrs. Higaki returned t her gardening, ignring the sad lk n Sumik’s face. Then she pulled up a plant.
“What’s that?” Sumik asked.
“A plant in pr cnditin -a waste f my time,”Mrs. Higaki said, thrwing the plant int the field beside the garden.
