I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom completely lined with bookshelves, and most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.

With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.

Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction. As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter—the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though second-hand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.

24. What can we infer about the author as a child?

A. He read what he had to. B. He disliked watching TV.

C. He found reading very hard. D. He considered reading part of his life.

25. What does the underlined word “voice” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. An idea. B. A sound quality. C. A way of writing. D. A world to write about.

26. What is the main effect that reading has on the author?

A. It helps him to realize his dream. B. It opens up a wider world for him.

C. It makes his college life more interesting. D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.

27. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Why Do I Read? B. How Do I Read? C. What Do I Read? D. When Do I Read?

C

Travelers to the Arctic islands of Svalbard would find a rough, ice-hardened land, protecting polar bears in its frozen landscapes. This group of Norwegian islands is the land of the “midnight sun” with almost 24 hours of sunlight during the summer months. It is also home to one of the most important storage facilities in world farming—the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种子库).

The seed vault was opened in 2008 in an effort to safeguard the world’s food supply for future generations. Svalbard is the perfect frozen environment to house seed samples (样本), set inside an Arctic mountain at 130 meters above sea level, so it is unlikely to be flooded. Low humidity, geological stability, and the surrounding permafrost (冻土) can keep seed-keeping places cool, dry, and usable for centuries.

Seed gene (基因) banks from around the world have sent food crop seeds for safety in case a natural disaster or environmental damage destroys existing supplies. Worldwide there are more than 1,700 seed gene banks that store seeds locally and many choose to send back-up samples to facilities like the Svalbard’s vault.

There is space in the global vault for 4.5 million different crop varieties with each variety storing on average 500 seeds, meaning it can house 2.25 billion seeds. There are around one million seed samples from 80 organizations in the vault at present so there is a lot of spare space for the vegetables, grains, peas and beans that are banked annually. On top of that, there are valuable flowers from the Myanmar rain forests.

The largest numbers of samples in the vault are varieties of rice and wheat. The seed vault has been listed as one of the most influential projects of the past 50 years for its efforts. Seeds themselves are not kept for farmers or gardeners to grow produce. Their true value is as a genetic resource in plant upbringing to create new crop varieties.

28. What makes Svalbard suitable for a global seed vault?

A. Its eco-friendly tourism. B. Its rich supplies of food.

C. Its favorable environment. D. Its strong sunlight in winter.

29. Why do many seed gene banks send food crop seeds to the Svalbard’s vault?

A. To protect them from climate changes. B. To exchange them for new crop seeds.

C. To make sure of the safety of food supplies. D. To compare them with new crop varieties.

30. What can be inferred about the Svalbard’s vault from Paragraph 4?

A. It increases its crop varieties every year. B. It stores seeds of different types.

C. It has little space for newcomers. D. It is costly for most organizations.

31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A. To explain how to store seeds safely. B. To introduce an influential seed vault.

C. To seek supporters for world seed vaults. D. To call on seed organizations to work together.

D

The dry land in Gir National Park and Wildlife Preserve, located near India western tip, is the proud and only home of the Asiatic lion. By the early 1900s, however, their populations had decreased for home loss and hunting, leaving fewer than 50 known individuals alive. Though their numbers have risen over the past several decades—climbing to around 670 in 2020, a successful story—the lions are still considered endangered.

One of the biggest challenges to keep the lions’ future is to track them; it is hard work. Some animals, like tigers and zebras, have special coat patterns that provide useful marks to the researchers. But for the Asiatic lions, researchers must look elsewhere.

In 2019, Banerjee, who worked for India’s National Tiger Conservation Authority, developed an AI system to recognize the lions with high accuracy (准确性). The AI program, SIMBA, has been applied in practice. “It will be a fantastic tool for long-term lion monitoring (监视),” says Banerjee. He adds, “It could help forest officials arrive at a more accurate estimate (评估) of Gir’s lion population. In a few years, the group will have a rich collection of information—how many lions are male, female, how many will bear babies and how many are dead.”

Despite the advantages, Banerjee also adds his worries. He suggests certain rules be made to prevent main information from being stolen. “Where tools like SIMBA really shine,” he says, “is in helping researchers develop monitoring plans that are keys to the protection of at-risk animals; otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain.”

32. What is the difficulty in protecting the lions?

A. Stopping them from being killed. B. Keeping track of them.

C. Protecting their living environment. D. Increasing their population.

33. How does SIMBA help researchers?

A. By locating the lions’ homes. B. By tracking other animals.

C. By monitoring the animal stealers. D. By providing accurate information.

34. What is Banerjee’s worry about the program?

A. Its possible danger to animals. B. Its pictures being changed.

C. Its information being stolen. D. Its limited usage.

35. What is the text mainly about?

A. The biggest challenge of the AI system.

B. The measures of protecting Asiatic lions.

C. The application of AI on protecting animals.

D. The AI Program for the endangered Asiatic lions.

第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

A study session with friends can be an excellent way to learn. If you make it a regular event (eg weekly), a study session can help you to fully understand difficult material, prepare for exams, and finally earn strong grades.

· Teach one another. One of the most effective ways to learn is actually to teach other people. 36 This greatly benefits both the “teacher” as well as the whole group.

· Take quizzes (小测验). Another great aspect of working with a group is the ability to quiz one another. 37 This means quizzing one another orally. Or, different members can create quizzes for different parts and give them to the other members to take.

· Share notes. 38 Try exchanging the notes that you each took in class. When you put all of that together, you’ll walk away with a much stronger understanding of the material.

· 39 Knowing what you don’t understand and putting that into a question for your group is an excellent exercise. The attempt (尝试) to answer each other’s questions as a group is great for every member as well as the group.

· Create a routine (常规). If you can make some kind of routine within your study session, you are likely to be more productive. 40 You may have to try out different methods with your group to see what works for you.

A. It may take a little time.

B. Answer each other’s questions.

C. Three or four heads are better than one!

D. Accept the challenge and give the answer.

E. You can simply ask each other questions out loud.

第二节 (共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

People need to vote to decide who will be their president. But humans aren’t the only creatures on Earth to vote. In fact, there are 61 (variety) animals which also make group decisions. They just do 62 differently for different reasons.

Instead of voting for a president, animals vote on where to live or when to hunt (狩猎). Take meerkats (海猫) for example. When 63 (search) for food, the animals get together for protection from hunters. But when a meerkat wants to speed up the search, the animal will make a “move call”. If three or more meerkats make this call, an agreement to speed up can 64 (reach).

African wild dogs also vote in groups. A group of scientists 65 study the behavior of animals have found that the animals also vote to decide whether to hunt. How do the dogs vote for hunting? They sneeze (打喷嚏)! Whether the dogs will actually go for a hunt is decided by 66 number of sneezes. The more the dogs sneeze, the 67 (likely) it is that they will look for a meal.

Just like humans, animals don’t always agree with one another. But joining in group decisions 68 (help) make sure of their 69 (survive). It is extremely interesting 70 (observe) how animals vote for a decision and stick together.
