 Moving through the air, a gray-haired 79-year-old keeps her head up, eyes closely watching every movement of the giant kite-like inflated (膨胀的) wing as she floats effortlessly across the land. Tracey Hardison, 79, spends most of her spare time going powered paragliding (滑翔伞运动) .

 Like any other extreme sports such as skydiving and bungee jumping, more and more young people like to play with it. But Tracey, who started powered paragliding in 2008, sees it as the perfect sport for her. “There are 1, 000 reasons not to do something you don’t like, but there is only one reason you do something you like. I only do what I like. I like doing what challenges me--things that are considered impossible by others, She said.

 She once crashed into rich woodland on a snowy day, and was lucky enough to escape with just a few scratches (刮伤) . One spring nearly a decade ago, Tracey was walking by a river when she saw a man playing with a powered paraglider. It was the first time she had seen it, and she immediately fell for it, begging the man to teach her how to use it.

 However, a new powered paraglider would cost her 7, 240 dollars and an additional 600dollars for lessons, which she could not afford. But she decided to take up the sport, so when she found a secondhand paraglider for half the price, she didn’t think twice. “Took out all my savings to follow my dream to fly, she said.

 Tracey’s daughter, who is 36 and married, could not understand her mother’s choice at the time. She is still strongly against her love for flying, but nothing seems to be able to stop her. Asked how many more years she plans to glide, Tracey replied, “I’ll fly until I’m physically unable to do so. “

24. Why does Tracey spend most of her spare time going powered paragliding?

 A. Because she enjoys the feeling of flying.

 B. Because she uses it to kill her spare time.

 C. Because she loves it and it is challenging.

 D. Because she likes adventure and it is interesting.

25. What do you know about Tracey from the passage?

 A. She lives a rich life.

 B. She is a determined woman.

 C. She is good at many extreme sports.

 D. She learnt how to use the powered paraglider by herself.

26. How does Tracey’s daughter think of her mother’s choice?

 A. She is in favor of it   B. She is proud of it.

 C. She disagrees with it.   D. She thinks nothing of it.

27. What does the text mainly tell us?

 A. Grandma shares her dreams with others.

 B. Grandma practises paragliding everyday.

 C. Grandma likes the dangerous sports.

 D. Grandma follows her dream to fly.

C

 Rescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday’s powerful earthquake in Mexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy’s canine (犬科的) unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.

 Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her outstanding service has won praise for her ability to detect (探测) people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.

 This week, Frida and Evil and Echo-two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen school in southern Mexico City.

 Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took up her work looking into every bit of the ruins.

 If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to warn rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before continuing, her handler explained.

 Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them.

 However, that hasn’t stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and winning fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.

 While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.

28. What makes Frida a social media star?

 A. Her ability to search spaces beyond humans’ reach.

 B. Her working together with the rescue team.

 C. Her cool appearance with special designs.

 D. Her rescue records and tireless work.

29. What does the underlined word “corpse” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

 A. A special signal   B. A dead body

 C. An injured animal   D. An article of clothing

30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

 A. The rest of the rescue will be done by dogs.

 B. More dogs will be sent to the area.

 C. Frida will probably do a great job.

 D. Frida will get nothing.

31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

 A. Special Rescuers in Mexico  B. Powerful Earthquakes in Mexico

 C. People Waiting for Rescue  D. Children Surviving Natural Disasters

D

 Wherever we go, we are surrounded by history. Across the globe, cultural heritage is passed down through the generations. It is in the buildings and structures around us. It is in the arts and artifacts (手工艺品) we treasure. It lives in the languages we speak and the stories we tell. But today, it is under destruction as never before. Not only are the damages of time threatening our cultural heritage, but climate change, globalization and tourism are all demanding a heavy price. Technology is now the most important weapon in the battle. Here’s how technology is preserving our cultural heritage.

 As you can imagine, creating the replicas (复制品) by 2 D images is extremely time-consuming. Increasingly, artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms (算法) allow millions of images to be stored in a matter of hours. AI will also make restoration (修复) and preservation of existing cultural heritage far easier and better than methods before.

 Virtual reality (VR) technology will play a leading role in preserving our cultural heritage in the coming years. Many of the most important sites and architecture are easily damaged. The presence of hundreds of thousands of tourists on these locations is doing a great deal of harm. Wastes pile up everywhere, causing serious problems. As more cultural heritage sites and objects are digitally mapped and recorded, VR technology will increasingly become the way that people experience them. We’ll all finally be able to walk through places, look at (and touch) artifacts and works of art without ever seeing them with our own eyes.

 Finally, our cultural heritage will be preserved by technology. Efforts in research, data sharing and project work will help promote and preserve the cultural heritage of countries all across the world.

32. According to paragraph 1, cultural heritage

 A. will never disappear   B. will under perfect protection

 C. is faced with challenges now  D. is damaged by modern technology

33. What is the advantage of AI in preserving cultural heritage?

 A. It makes restoration easier.  B. It makes preservation safer.

 C. It creates replicas in seconds.  D. It produces 2D images.

34. How does VR help to preserve cultural heritage?

 A. By burying a huge number of wastes.

 B. By reducing human influence on the site.

 C. By preventing visitors from touching artifacts.

 D. By educating people about the sites’ importance.

35. What is the author’s attitude towards technology in cultural protection?

 A. Supportive.  B. Disagreeing.  C. Doubtful.  D. Neutral.

第二节 (共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5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。

 Going from middle school to freshman year of high school is a big challenge.      36      

Be open to new friendships.

 High school is all about experiencing new things, including new friendships. Getting to know people you haven’t met before is a great way to broaden your horizons (眼界).      37      

Simply sitting with a new person at lunch can be enough to get the ball rolling.

       38      

 For most people, going off to high school means heading off to a new campus. If you worry about the unknown, reach out to the school and see if someone can help. They might be able to show you around the campus, which will make you a bit more comfortable as you go on with your freshman year.

Get organized.

 High school and middle school are very different in studying.      39      You can buy a planner and spend a few minutes each night going over the notes you took in class that day. Staying on top of your studies will make it much easier to get used to high school.

Create a three-year plan.

 While there’s no need to plan every day for the next three years, it can’t hurt to make a note of classes you want to take or activities you’d like to try.      40      Having a plan in place will help you make the most of your high school experience.

 A. If you’re nervous, start small.

 B. Be open to new experiences.

 C. Explore the campus.

第二节读后续写 (满分25分)

 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。

 In a story that fits a Hollywood script (剧本), two strange neighbors connected through music and formed an unusual bond by playing the piano together through a wall.

 Giorgio Lo Porto is an Italian living in London, England. While he’s never met his neighbor, he knows his new neighbor is a pianist.

 His curiosity sets off a series of online videos recording their growing friendship.

 Lo Porto then says that he’s left a note telling his neighbor that he loved his music and included a request: Could you play “My Heart Will Go On?” As music starts playing in the background, he posts “I guess it’s a yes.”

 In the next video, not only does Lo Porto play the piano, he’s also invited his neighbor to a duet (二重奏). Although he hasn’t played for a while, it appears that his relationship with his neighbor lights up his lost passion for the instrument (乐器).

 In another video, Lo Porto begins playing “River Flows Through You,” and stops. At the very moment, his neighbor picks up where he left off.

 And just like that, the two started a weekly duet “meet up,” as they played back and forth through the wall.

 With every note, Lo Porto’s curiosity about his neighbor’s identity (身份) increased, until one day he took the leap to meet him.

 With much expectation and thousands of fascinated online users, Lo Porto revealed (透漏) that he finally met his melodic neighbor.

 “Well, today I have met my neighbor. It was better than expected. His name is Emil...” Lo Porto posted.

 It turns out that Emil is a 87-year-old native of Poland who recently lost his wife to COVID. He was in between homes as he waited for his house to be sold.

 As Lo Porto explained, Emil played the piano at 2 PM every weekend “because his wife loved it.” Playing it “keeps him closer to his wife and away from the painful reminder” of her absence. Lo Porto promised Emil that he would continue their duets till he moved out.

How to improve the efficiency of online learning?

 Due to COVID-19, we have no choice but to stay at home learning online. Without face-to-face communication with teachers and classmates, it’s hard for us to concentrate on study. Here are some tips to improve the efficiency of online learning.

 Initially, it is of great significance for us to create a good study atmosphere. A quiet place with no distractions, such as TVs and mobile phones, is a perfect spot to study in. Additionally, make sure your home network runs at a high speed, thus you can easily get access to the online classroom. Most importantly, being actively involved in class is the decisive factor to achieve more during online study.

 Online learning calls for more self-discipline than classroom learning. Hope my advice is of benefit to you.

第二节 读后续写

Para. 1:

 After that, they kept in touch by phone. Because of COVID, they couldn’t meet and play duets together, but Lo Porto was much concerned with Emil. He made a call to Emil every two days, through which they talked about everything. Lo Porto got to know the story between Emil and his wife and he told Emil how he missed his parents. Sometimes, they played the piano at the same time and Lo Porto would record it and post it online. Gradually, this special friendship attracted more and more people on the Internet, making many people not feel lonely any more during this special period.

Para. 2:

 However, bad news came. It wasn’t long before Emil passed away in his sleep. On hearing it, Lo Porto was overwhelmed with sadness. He could not help thinking of the good times they shared through a wall. He then posted an emotional goodbye to the friend who had a lasting impact. “Dear Emil, now you have reunited with your wife. I knew very little about you, but you changed my life. You’ll be in my heart, “he wrote. After that, Lo Porto would play the piano at 2 PM every weekend in memory of the friendship between Emil and him. It was Emil that lighted up his lost passion for piano. Though his house was sold, the unusual bond between them would last forever.
