I skipped thrugh the rms, shuting, “Mama, he smiled. He’s all there!”. As lng as he lay all the time in bed, we called him William Armstrng, even thugh it was frmal and sunded as if we were referring t ne f ur ancestrs, but with his creeping arund n the deerskin rug and beginning t talk, smething had t be dne abut his name.
It was I wh renamed him. . When he crawled, he crawled backwards, as if he were in reverse and culdn’t change gears. If yu called him, he’d turn arund as if he were ging in the ther directin, then he’d back right up t yu t be picked up. Crawling backward made him lk like a ddlebug, s I began t call him Ddle. Renaming my brther was perhaps the kindest thing I ever did fr him, because nbdy expects much f smene called Ddle. Althugh Ddle learned t crawl, he shwed n signs f walking, but he wasn’t idle.

A skyscraper is a statement f ambitin. N surprise that Saudi Arabia wants t build the wrld’s tallest. Cnstructin n the Jeddah Twer stpped in 2018 but will restart sn; when cmpleted, it will be the first building ever t rise t an amazing 1000 metres.
In China
Asia has a great lve f heights, t, having built mre than tw-thirds f all supertalls in the past decade. China, which had barely any skyscrapers befre 1980, nw has five f the ten tallest. The cuntry is hme t mre skyscrapers per persn than America. China’s upward trend has practical causes. Until recently, the cuntry’s ppulatin was surging, and thse seeking wrk are still mving frm the cuntryside t the cities. Height als helps with urban density, making cmmuting distances shrter.
In America
Only 10% f supertalls built in the past decade have sprung up in America, the ancestral hme f the skyscraper. New Yrk, a city knwn fr its massive buildings, has gained a few. There are still many ecnmic mtives t g high, particularly in New Yrk: land is expensive, and its ppulatin is amng the mst cncentrated f any American city. But gaining apprval fr new buildings is a cmplex prcess, thanks t 3300 pages f zning regulatins.
In Eurpe
The number f streys may be saring, but sme cuntries nevertheless prefer t stay clser t the grund. In the Eurpean Unin nly Pland has a supertall building. Skyscrapers are ften regarded as tasteless n the cntinent, and in Lndn and Rme new buildings are nt allwed t blck views f certain landmarks, making it hard t build upwards. Paris has banned cnstructin f new tall buildings in respnse t “ugly” skyscrapers.
The sky is nt the nly limit.
Enterprising cuntries all want spectacular buildings, but China’s fficials are clamping dwn n “weird” buildings. Skyscrapers that lk like “giant trusers” — the nick name given t a building in Beijing — are nw frbidden. In 2021 the gvernment impsed a height cap f 500 metres and banned sme cities frm building abve 250 metres. It is thught that safety prblems, an versupply f cmmercial ffices and lts f vacant residential buildings mtivated this plicy.

Australia and the rest f Oceania are the last regins free f bird flu that has caused mass mrtality in birds acrss the wrld and a massive utbreak in dairy cattle in the United States. Why animals in the suthern regin have s far escaped infectin is a mystery, but scientists have several theries.
Fr ne, Australia is gegraphically islated and desn’t imprt live pultry, says Frank Wng, a virlgist at the Australian Centre fr Disease Preparedness. Many f the cuntries’ birds are endemic (地方性的)and d nt migrate t regins where the virus is spreading.
But the virus’s arrival in Australia is “a matter f when, nt if”, says Michelle Wille at the University f Melbume, Australia. She thinks that lng-distance migratry shrebirds and seabirds that cme frm Siberia and Alaska thrugh sutheast Asia t Australia are mst likely t carry the virus int the cuntry.
Anther pssible rute fr the virus is thrugh ducks. Scientists think migrating ducks and geese in ther parts f the wrld can spread the disease withut dying frm it. That’s because ducks have a bilgical sensr, knwn as RIG-I, that detects an invading flu virus and triggers an immune respnse that usually fights it ff. Kirsty Shrt says ducks might have evlved such defences in Asia frm repeated infectins with many weaker frms f the virus, giving them pre-existing immunity. Althugh they dn’t get sick frm H5N1, they can still pass it n, and ducks gather in lakes and pnds with ther birds, increasing the chances f disease spread.
Oceania has islated ecsystems. This islatin is partly explained by a bigegraphical divisin called the Wallace Line. Many animal species tend t stay n ne side f the line r the ther, and because f this islatin, the species n each side are distinct.
The sharp divisin might als mean that the virus is nt adapted t animals east f the Wallace Line, says Wng. “Bird flu viruses are particularly well-adapted t certain species,” he says. Birds in Australia culd have a genetic make-up that bypasses the usual infectin rute fr the virus, but n ne has yet tested this assumptin.
Althugh many duck species are shrt-distance migratry birds and tend nt t crss the Wallace Line, sme species—including Pacific black duck and sptted whistling duck—d, and Wille thinks they culd intrduce H5N1 t the regin.
If the virus is detected, gvernment vets will immediately mve in t kill the affected ppulatin, which happened when H7N3 and H7N9 strains f the flu were detected in Victria in May.
Shrt says that, when it happens, the impact n Australia’s birds, mammals and ecsystems is unknwn, but many species culd prbably be affected. “It’s a big research gap.” she says.
43. Which viewpint des Michelle Wille mst agree with?
A. The virus is unlikely t spread t Australia sn.
B. It is ducks that will bring the virus int Australia.
C. Migratin patterns will keep Australia safe frm infectin.
D. The arrival f the virus in Australia is highly pssible.
44. What is suggested abut birds in Australia regarding the virus?
A. They have been tested and fund resistant.
B. They migrate t areas where the virus spreads.
C. They may have genetic traits that prevent infectin.
D. They are mre susceptible t infectin than ther birds.
45. Which f the fllwing statements is crrect accrding t the passage?
A. There is a lack f research n the virus’ impact.
B. Gvernment measures will prevent utbreaks in Australia.
C. Birds in Australia have becme immune due t past expsure.
D. The Wallace Line guarantees that the virus will nt reach Australia.
46. What culd be the best title f the passage?
A. The Spread f Bird Flu in Australia
B. Is Australia Immune frm Bird Flu?
C. Why Are Ducks Respnsible fr Bird Flu?
D. Bird Flu: A Glbal Cncern

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出，澳大利亚等大洋洲地区成为最后一块没有出现禽流感的净土，文中分析了其原因和出现禽流感的可能性。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But the virus’s arrival in Australia is “a matter f when, nt if”, says Michelle Wille at the University f Melbume, Australia. She thinks that lng-distance migratry shrebirds and seabirds that cme frm Siberia and Alaska thrugh sutheast Asia t Australia are mst likely t carry the virus int the cuntry.(但澳大利亚墨尔本大学的Michelle Wille说，病毒到达澳大利亚是“时间问题，而不是有没有可能”。她认为，从西伯利亚和阿拉斯加经东南亚到澳大利亚的长途迁徙滨鸟和海鸟最有可能将病毒携带到澳大利亚)”可知，Michelle Wille认为禽流感病毒传播到澳大利亚只是时间早晚的问题，即她觉得这是极有可能发生的。故选D。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“The sharp divisin might als mean that the virus is nt adapted t animals east f the Wallace Line, says Wng. “Bird flu viruses are particularly well-adapted t certain species,” he says. Birds in Australia culd have a genetic make-up that bypasses the usual infectin rute fr the virus, but n ne has yet tested this assumptin.(黄说，这种巨大的区别也可能意味着病毒不适于华莱士线以东的动物。他说：“禽流感病毒特别适应某些物种。”澳大利亚的鸟类可能具有绕过病毒一般感染途径的基因组成，但还没有人证实过这一假设)”可知，澳大利亚的鸟类可能因其特别的遗传特性而免于感染禽流感，这与C选项描述相符。故选C。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据第九段“Shrt says that, when it happens, the impact n Australia’s birds, mammals and ecsystems is unknwn, but many species culd prbably be affected. “It’s a big research gap.” she says.(Shrt说，当这一情况发生时，会对澳大利亚鸟类、哺乳动物和生态系统产生的影响尚不清楚，但许多物种可能会受到影响。“这是一个很大的研究差距。”她说)”可知，对于禽流感病毒会在澳大利亚造成的影响，相关研究是匮乏的。故选A。
【46题详解】
主旨大意题。总览全文可知，文章主要对澳大利亚尚未被禽流感病毒影响的原因和未来被病毒入侵的可能性进行了分析和探讨，B选项“澳大利亚对禽流感是否免疫？”准确对应文章内容，适合作为标题。故选B。

Restaurants: Star eursed (受诅咒的)
The twelve new restaurants added t the New Yrk Michelin Guide this mnth, serving up cuisine ranging frm “haute French” t “ec-chic”, will be tasting their success. Being featured in the handbk f the tyre-maker-turned-restaurant-critic is the first step twards receiving a Michelin star, the mst ppular award in fine dining. Yet accrding t research recently published in the Strategic Management Jurnal, restaurants might be better ff remaining starless.
Daniel Sands f University Cllege Lndn’s schl f management tracked the restaurants that pened in New Yrk in 2000 and received a starred review in the New Yrk Times. He fund that, f this prmising grup, restaurants which went n t get a Michelin star were mre likely t clse dwn in the years that fllwed than thse which did nt. The relatinship remained even when factrs such as lcatin, price and type f cuisine were taken int accunt. All tld, 40% f restaurants awarded Michelin stars in 2005 had clsed by the end f 2019.
A Michelin star bsts publicity: the study fund that Ggle search intensity rse by ver a third fr newly starred restaurants. But that fame cmes at a price. First, Mr Sands argues, the restaurants’ custmers change. Being in the sptlight raises diners’ expectatins and brings in turists frm farther away. Meeting guests’ greater demands piles n new csts. Secnd, the award puts a star-shaped target n the restaurants’ back. Businesses they deal with, such as ingredient suppliers and landlrds, use the pprtunity t charge mre. Chefs, t, want their salaries t reflect the award and are mre likely t be pached (挖墙脚) by cmpetitrs.
Fr restaurateurs wh are in it fr the glry, Michelin’s tp award will prbably remain t tempting nt t pursue. But fr thse wh simply want t stay in business, It may be safer nt t reach the required standard.

52. 我从他拒绝见我推断，他还没有做出决定。(infer)（汉译英）
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I infer frm his refusal t see me that he hasn’t made a decisin yet.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语、时态和宾语从句。“从……推断出……”用短语infer frm；“拒绝”用名词refusal，后接名词作后置定语；后接宾语从句，从句不缺少成分且句意完整，所以用连接代词that连接。“做出决定”用短语make a decisin。根据句意，主句陈述客观事实，用一般现在时；从句的状态延续到现在还有可能继续延续下去，应用现在完成时。故翻译为I infer frm his refusal t see me that he hasn’t made a decisin yet.
53. 诺贝尔奖委员会赞扬她的作品直面了历史的创伤和人性的脆弱。(cnfrnt) （汉译英）
_______________________________________________________________________________________________

【详解】考查名词（短语）、动词（短语）、形容词、介词短语、非谓语动词和部分倒装。句子在介绍当前通常的情况，基础时态宜用一般现在时，整个句子可通过连词but“但是”和s“所以”变为三个分句；第一句中主语“人工智能”用名词短语artificial intelligence，谓语和宾语“可以创作小说、诗歌等作品”可用动词短语can create wrks such as nvels and pems，状语“通过学习大量的文学作品和语言规则”可用介词by和动名词短语learning a large number f literary wrks and language rules搭配；第二句中可用it作主语，指代前面提到的artificial intelligence，“学不会真情实感”可用动词短语cannt learn true feelings，“没有创作灵魂”可用动词短语has n creative sul，两者之间用and连接；第三句中可用it作主语，“与人类作家相提并论”可用动词短语can be cmpared with human writers，“绝不能”可用介词短语in n case，表否定意义，句子需用部分倒装，情态动词can需放在主语it之前。故可译为：Artificial intelligence can create wrks such as nvels and pems by learning a large number f literary wrks and language rules, but it cannt learn true feelings and has n creative sul, s in n case can it be cmpared with human writers.
