W: That meant having the engine on so I only used it a bit. Instead I got all of my jumpers and trousers from my suitcases and wore them all night. I was still frozen, though, and wished I had some coffee or tea with me.
M: So you spent the whole night inside the car
W: Yes. I managed to contact the emergency services finally. They knew my location from my phone signal. They’d called to ask if I needed an ambulance and luckily I didn’t need it, so they just cleared the snow and led me along the road back to the main road.

【解析】
【原文】W: Hi everyone. I’d like to welcome you aboard our train trip through high desert scenery. Our trip today lasts one and a half hours and the train climbs uphill for the first forty-five minutes and then makes its way down to a town called Oldsville. In the twentieth century, oil was discovered here and an important industry developed. It didn’t last long, however, and tourism is the biggest industry these days. There’s a lot to see in the town. On the journey you won’t see any animals during the daytime because it’s too hot, but you should look out for beautiful desert plants right next to the track, although at this height there are no trees. At one point, we go over an old wooden bridge. People get worried because it’s noisy, but it’s quite safe. There’s no river under the bridge, but you can see some large colorful rocks —they’re fantastic. We don’t make any stops on the trip because all the stations were closed long ago. At the far end of our train there’s a small store selling souvenirs that you can’t buy anywhere else. The other things which we sell during your ride are drinks. Unfortunately, the machine selling these is broken, so once we’re underway I’ll be walking down the train with everything in a basket. So stop me if you want anything.

The STAR Eco Station is an environmental science museum, a wildlife rescue center, and a shelter for endangered and illegally-traded foreign animals confiscated (没收) by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It carries out the mission “Preservation through Education” by educating visitors about the preservation of the environment and the inter-dependence of all living things.
Field trips
STAR Eco Station hosts field trips for schools and camps throughout Southern California. Each field trip lasts two hours, consisting of a one-hour gathering and a one-hour tour of the facility, with lessons associated with California State Science Standards.
Throughout the field trip, students learn about the latest developments in environmental protection and the ways in which wildlife interacts with various ecosystems. The students also receive an up-close and hands-on experience with our rescued foreign wildlife. The tour includes different environmental exhibits that showcase the ways students can help protect animals in the wild.
Field trips are offered on weekdays only, from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. or 12 p.m.-2 p.m. The rate is $6 per visitor, both child and adult, with a $120 minimum. We offer one free adult per 10 children for groups of 40 or more. Maximum capacity is 120 people per field trip.
Public tours
Guided tours of the STAR Eco Station introduce visitors to over two hundred rescued foreign wildlife. Each tour is led by an Eco Station staff member, and features fun animal facts, hands-on animal encounters, surprising rescue stories, environmental exhibits, and original approaches to going green. Visitors may only see the animals on a guided tour, for both your safety and the safety of our animals.
The guided tour lasts approximately 45-60 minutes. Public tours are offered on Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. (last tour begins at 3 p.m.). Our guided public tours start every hour on the hour. Visitors are served on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations are required. However, tours may sell out.

【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“It carries out the mission “Preservation through Education” by educating visitors about the preservation of the environment and the inter-dependence of all living things.(它通过教育游客了解保护环境和所有生物的相互依存性,完成“通过教育保护野生动物”的任务)”可知,STAR Eco Station的目标是提高保护野生动物的认识。故选B。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Field trips部分中的“Throughout the field trip, students learn about the latest developments in environmental protection and the ways in which wildlife interacts with various ecosystems.(在整个实地考察过程中,学生们学习了环境保护方面的最新进展,以及野生动物与各种生态系统相互作用的方式)”可知,学生在实地考察中能了解生物是如何相互影响的。故选D。

B
If a president, a philosopher, and one of the best-selling writers credited the same secret for their success, would you try to follow it too What if the secret was something you already knew how to do In fact, you probably do it every day. Here’s what Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.” Thomas Jefferson: “Walking is the best possible exercise.” Charles Dickens: “If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and die.”
Researchers have found quite a lot of connections between walking and producing ideas. A Stanford University study found that participants were 81 percent more creative when walking as opposed to sitting. According to the study, walking outside-compared with on a treadmill (跑步机) — produces the most novel and highest-quality ideas.
The movement aspect of walking is obviously key. Our creative thinking is triggered by physical movement, which is exactly why walking -with your dog, a friend, or alone-feeds creative thinking.
The scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Breaking your routine with a walk can be a catalyst for fresh understanding of problems or projects. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your familiar surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. You can walk through a park and observe people joking or birds singing. Being inside, you’re more likely to be lifeless, which means you don’t have enough energy to wonder or create things.
So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking Involve yourself more closely in your surroundings. Turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a puddle.
24. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1
A. By providing background.
B. By borrowing phrases from great minds.
C. By giving definition.
D. By presenting well-known examples.
25. The underlined word in paragraph 4 means something ________.
A. causing a change
B. stopping progress
C. drawing attention
D. interrupting creativity
26. What can we learn from the passage
A. Nature exploration improves fitness.
B. Walking on a treadmill brings more energy.
C. Working indoors makes people less creative.
D. Familiar surroundings encourage novel ideas.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Exercise in Nature.
B. Train Your Brain.
C. Develop Your Creativity.
D. Walk for Wonder.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了走路对于创造力的激发与思维的发散所具有的重大意义。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段的“Here’s what Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.” Thomas Jefferson: “Walking is the best possible exercise.” Charles Dickens: “If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and die.” (弗里德里希·尼采写道:“只有从走路中获得的想法才有价值。”托马斯·杰斐逊:“走路是最好的锻炼。”查尔斯·狄更斯:“如果我不能走得又远又快,我想我应该爆炸而死。”)”推知,作者通过引用名人名言介绍主题。故选B。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段的“Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your familiar surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. You can walk through a park and observe people joking or birds singing. Being inside, you’re more likely to be lifeless, which means you don’t have enough energy to wonder or create. (只要走出去,你就走出了你熟悉的环境和你的舒适区,如果你想打开你的头脑,接受新的可能性,这是必要的。你可以走过一个绿树成荫的街区。你可以走过公园,看到人们开玩笑或鸟儿歌唱。身处其中,你更有可能毫无生气,也就是说你没有足够的精力去探索和创造)”可知,讲到了散步带来的好处。且划线词后“for fresh understanding of problems or projects (对问题或项目有新的理解)”可知,该句想表达“通过散步打破你的日常生活可以促进对问题或项目的新理解。”A. causing a change引起变化;B. stopping progress停止进步;C. drawing attention引起注意;D. interrupting creativity打断创造力。由此可知划线词意为“带来改变的东西”。故选A。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Being inside, you’re more likely to be lifeless, which means you don’t have enough energy to wonder or create. (身处室内,你更有可能毫无生气,也就是说你没有足够的精力去探索和创造)”可知,当你身处室内时,会使你没有精力去探索和创造。即在室内工作会降低人们的创造力。故选C。
【27题详解】
标题判断题。通读全文,尤其第一段中“Here’s what Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.” Thomas Jefferson: “Walking is the best possible exercise.” Charles Dickens: “If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and die.”(弗里德里希·尼采写道:“只有从走路中获得的想法才有价值。”托马斯·杰斐逊:“走路是最好的锻炼。”查尔斯·狄更斯:“如果我不能走得又远又快,我想我应该爆炸而死。”)”可知,本文主要讲述了散步对于创造力的激发与思维发散的好处,即散步可以带来奇迹。D项“Walk for Wonder(散步寻找奇迹)”为最佳标题。故选D。
C
When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don’t worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”
28. What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A. He felt disappointed. B. He gave up his hobby.
C. He liked the weather there. D. He had disagreements with his family.
29. What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean
A. Be careful! B. Well done! C. No way! D. Don’t worry!
30. Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London
A. To join the skateboarding. B. To make new friends.
C. To learn more tricks. D. To relive his childhood days
31. What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A. Children should learn a second language.
B. Sport is necessary for children’s health.
C Children need a sense of belonging
D. Seeing the world is a must for children.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者自己的经历,起初搬到伦敦很不适应,但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方,结识了玩滑板的朋友,因此很好的适应了。作者回到伦敦之后,经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆,在与一个玩滑板的孩子打招呼的时候,终于找到了自己久违的熟悉感。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue -sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.(除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市,没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天,我感到迷茫和无措)”可知,作者刚到伦敦的时候因为没有喜爱的沙滩,不能很好的融入到新的城市,感到很沮丧。故选A。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词前文“A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!”(几分钟后,当我学会这个技巧时,我的朋友们敲着他们的板子大声喊道:“做得好!做得好!做得好!)”以及后文“And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. (那才是真正重要的——滑板的落地技巧掌握了才是一名好的滑板玩家)”可知,作者掌握了滑板落地技巧,因此他的朋友大声欢呼,因此可以推出本句的Safe是赞美的含义。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段““I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”(我告诉他:“我20年前经常在这里玩滑板,”他缓慢地开始向我点头:“嗨,你好!”)”可推知,作者去Southbank这个地方是为了寻找自己玩滑板的回忆。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.(除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市,没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天,我感到迷茫和无措。直到我有了一个发现)”以及文章第二段“Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters.(泰晤士河东段的南岸,是英国滑板运动的中心,在那里,滑板不断的碰撞声让你的脑袋嗡嗡作响。我喜欢那里。我很快就和当地的滑板手交了朋友)”及文章倒数第二段“When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.(我15岁时,我全家搬到了华盛顿。我试着在那里玩滑板,但当地人远不那么热情。几年之内,我就放弃了)”以及文章最后一段“When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring.(当我2004年回到伦敦时,我发现自己在南岸闲逛,在那里呆了几个小时。从那以后,我已经回去好几次了,最近一次是今年春天)”可知,作者起初搬到伦敦很不适应,但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方,结识了玩滑板的朋友,因此很好的适应了。但是搬去华盛顿,因为没有遇到很好的玩滑板的朋友,几年之后就不再玩滑板,作者回到伦敦之后,经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆,在于一个孩子打招呼的时候,终于找到了自己久违的回忆。通过作者的经历,作者要表达的是,归属感对于孩子是很重要的。故选C。
D
It is not always easy to understand animal behavior, especially when it’s related to other species. For decades, researchers have observed orcas (虎鲸) attacking and even killing porpoises (鼠海豚) in the Pacific Northwest. But it confuses people that these expert hunters don’t eat them. So what’s going on here
Southern Resident orcas are a different population of orcas that live in the Pacific Northwest. The lives of these orcas are closely tied to those of the salmon. So if the salmon disappear, so too will the orca. But despite their preference for the salmon, these whales are known to attack and kill other smaller marine mammals (海洋哺乳 动物) without eating them.
To better understand this unusual behavior, an international team of researchers did a research and examined more than 60 years of recorded interactions between Southern Resident orcas and porpoises in the Salish Sea.
“Why don’t the Southern Residents just eat porpoises instead ” Deborah Giles of Wild Orca said. “It’s because fish-eating killer whales have a completely different ecology and culture from orcas that eat marine mammals. So we must conclude that their interactions with porpoises serve a different purpose, but this purpose has only been a guess until now. ”
According to Giles and her colleagues’ work, the orca may be attacking the porpoise as a form of social play. It is possible these large animals may be attacking the smaller mammals as a way to build up social cohesion (凝聚力). Similarly, the behavior could represent hunting practice, by which the orcas are practising their teamwork and cooperation skills for hunting salmons. Finally, the behavior could be a way of “mismothering” where the orca see the smaller porpoises as weaker or ill and so in need of care.
This work highlights the need for the protection of salmon populations in the area as well as the orcas’ entire hunting range. The threat to the salmon’s future is not just a threat to a single species, but an entire ecosystem.
32. Why did an international team of researchers do their study
A. To find out a way to protect porpoises.
B. To make sure the reason why some orcas attack salmon.
C. To solve the problem of marine mammals’ living environment.
D. To better understand the strange behavior of Southern Resident orcas.
33. What is Southern Resident orcas’ favorite food
A. the porpoise. B. the marine mammal.
C. the salmon. D. the whale.
34. According to Giles’ research, which may be a reason for the orcas’ attacking porpoises
A. It’s a kind of social play with porpoises.
B. It is a practice to kill porpoises as their food.
C. The orcas may dislike the smaller porpoises.
D. It’s a way for the orcas to practice their hunting skills.
35. What probably is the writer’s attitude to the research
A. Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于逆戟鲸攻击甚至杀死太平洋西北部的鼠海豚的现象的研究,以及对这一现象背后的原因进行了说明。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“For decades, researchers have observed orca (虎鲸) attacking and even killing porpoises (鼠海豚) in the Pacific Northwest. But it confuses people that these expert hunters don’t eat them. So what’s going on here (几十年来,研究人员观察到逆戟鲸攻击甚至杀死太平洋西北部的鼠海豚。但让人们困惑的是,这些专业的猎人不吃它们。这是怎么回事?)”以及第三段“To better understand this unusual behavior, an international team of researchers did a research and examined more than 60 years of recorded interactions between Southern Resident orcas and porpoises in the Salish Sea. (为了更好地理解这种不寻常的行为,一个国际研究小组做了一项研究,并检查了60多年来萨利希海南部虎鲸和鼠海豚之间的互动记录。)”可知,这个国际研究小组要进行研究,是为了更好地了解逆戟鲸的奇怪行为。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But despite their preference for salmon, these whales are known to attack and kill other smaller marine mammals (海洋哺乳动物) without eating them. (尽管它们喜欢吃鲑鱼,但众所周知,这些鲸鱼会攻击并杀死其他较小的海洋哺乳动物,而不吃它们。)”可知,逆戟鲸喜欢吃鲑鱼。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Similarly, the behavior could represent hunting practice, by which the orcas are practising their teamwork and cooperation skills for hunting salmon. (同样,这种行为可以代表狩猎练习,通过这种练习,逆戟鲸正在练习他们的团队合作技能,以捕猎鲑鱼。)”可知,根据吉尔的研究,虎鲸攻击海豚的原因可能是因为这是虎鲸练习狩猎技能的一种方式。故选D。
【35题详解】

【84题详解】
考查副词。句意:从那时起,在奥林匹克格言“更快、更高、更强”的激励下,成千上万训练有素、才华横溢的运动员致力于实现卓越的体育成就,推动人类成就的界限,如穆罕默德·阿里、迈克尔·乔丹、杰西卡·恩尼斯·希尔等。分析句子结构可知,本空填副词highly,修饰trained and talented,作状语。故填highly。
【85题详解】
考查时态。句意:从那时起,在奥林匹克格言“更快、更高、更强”的激励下,成千上万训练有素、才华横溢的运动员致力于实现卓越的体育运动,并突破人类成就的界限,如穆罕默德·阿里、迈克尔·乔丹、杰西卡·恩尼斯·希尔等。根据空前的Since then可知,本句用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。且句子主语athletes为复数,与devote“献(身)”为主动关系,故用现在完成时have devoted或现在完成进行时have been devoting。故填have devoted或have been devoting。
【86题详解】

【88题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在2004年雅典奥运会上,刘翔成为第一个获得男子110米跨栏金牌的亚洲人。动词win意为“赢得”。分析句子结构可知,became为本句谓语,空处需要非谓语动词作定语,修饰Asian,且Asian有序数词the first修饰。当名词前面有序数词修饰的时候,需要动词不定式作后置定语。故填to win。
【89题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:2008年,除了首次举办奥运会,中国还在奖牌榜上排名第一。in addition to意为“除了”,其中to为介词,故本空填动词host“举办”的动名词hosting,作介词to的宾语。故填hosting。
【90题详解】
考查冠词。句意:2022年对中国来说也是一个历史性的时刻,因为北京成功举办了冬季奥运会。根据空后的historic moment可知,moment“……的时刻”为可数名词,且historic以辅音音素开头,故本空用不定冠词a,表示泛指。故填a。

The STAR Eco Station is an environmental science museum, a wildlife rescue center, and a shelter for endangered and illegally-traded foreign animals confiscated (没收) by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It carries out the mission “Preservation through Education” by educating visitors about the preservation of the environment and the inter-dependence of all living things.
Field trips
STAR Eco Station hosts field trips for schools and camps throughout Southern California. Each field trip lasts two hours, consisting of a one-hour gathering and a one-hour tour of the facility, with lessons associated with California State Science Standards.
Throughout the field trip, students learn about the latest developments in environmental protection and the ways in which wildlife interacts with various ecosystems. The students also receive an up-close and hands-on experience with our rescued foreign wildlife. The tour includes different environmental exhibits that showcase the ways students can help protect animals in the wild.
Field trips are offered on weekdays only, from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. or 12 p.m.-2 p.m. The rate is $6 per visitor, both child and adult, with a $120 minimum. We offer one free adult per 10 children for groups of 40 or more. Maximum capacity is 120 people per field trip.
Public tours
Guided tours of the STAR Eco Station introduce visitors to over two hundred rescued foreign wildlife. Each tour is led by an Eco Station staff member, and features fun animal facts, hands-on animal encounters, surprising rescue stories, environmental exhibits, and original approaches to going green. Visitors may only see the animals on a guided tour, for both your safety and the safety of our animals.
The guided tour lasts approximately 45-60 minutes. Public tours are offered on Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. (last tour begins at 3 p.m.). Our guided public tours start every hour on the hour. Visitors are served on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations are required. However, tours may sell out.

If a president, a philosopher, and one of the best-selling writers credited the same secret for their success, would you try to follow it too What if the secret was something you already knew how to do In fact, you probably do it every day. Here’s what Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.” Thomas Jefferson: “Walking is the best possible exercise.” Charles Dickens: “If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and die.”
Researchers have found quite a lot of connections between walking and producing ideas. A Stanford University study found that participants were 81 percent more creative when walking as opposed to sitting. According to the study, walking outside-compared with on a treadmill (跑步机) — produces the most novel and highest-quality ideas.
The movement aspect of walking is obviously key. Our creative thinking is triggered by physical movement, which is exactly why walking -with your dog, a friend, or alone-feeds creative thinking.
The scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Breaking your routine with a walk can be a catalyst for fresh understanding of problems or projects. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your familiar surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. You can walk through a park and observe people joking or birds singing. Being inside, you’re more likely to be lifeless, which means you don’t have enough energy to wonder or create things.
So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking Involve yourself more closely in your surroundings. Turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a puddle.

When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don’t worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”
28. What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A. He felt disappointed. B. He gave up his hobby.
C. He liked the weather there. D. He had disagreements with his family.
29. What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean
A. Be careful! B. Well done! C. No way! D. Don’t worry!
30. Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London
A. To join the skateboarding. B. To make new friends.
C. To learn more tricks. D. To relive his childhood days
31. What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A. Children should learn a second language.
B. Sport is necessary for children’s health.
C. Children need a sense of belonging
D. Seeing the world is a must for children.
D
It is not always easy to understand animal behavior, especially when it’s related to other species. For decades, researchers have observed orcas (虎鲸) attacking and even killing porpoises (鼠海豚) in the Pacific Northwest. But it confuses people that these expert hunters don’t eat them. So what’s going on here
Southern Resident orcas are a different population of orcas that live in the Pacific Northwest. The lives of these orcas are closely tied to those of the salmon. So if the salmon disappear, so too will the orca. But despite their preference for the salmon, these whales are known to attack and kill other smaller marine mammals (海洋哺乳 动物) without eating them.
To better understand this unusual behavior, an international team of researchers did a research and examined more than 60 years of recorded interactions between Southern Resident orcas and porpoises in the Salish Sea.
“Why don’t the Southern Residents just eat porpoises instead ” Deborah Giles of Wild Orca said. “It’s because fish-eating killer whales have a completely different ecology and culture from orcas that eat marine mammals. So we must conclude that their interactions with porpoises serve a different purpose, but this purpose has only been a guess until now. ”
According to Giles and her colleagues’ work, the orca may be attacking the porpoise as a form of social play. It is possible these large animals may be attacking the smaller mammals as a way to build up social cohesion (凝聚力). Similarly, the behavior could represent hunting practice, by which the orcas are practising their teamwork and cooperation skills for hunting salmons. Finally, the behavior could be a way of “mismothering” where the orca see the smaller porpoises as weaker or ill and so in need of care.
This work highlights the need for the protection of salmon populations in the area as well as the orcas’ entire hunting range. The threat to the salmon’s future is not just a threat to a single species, but an entire ecosystem.
32. Why did an international team of researchers do their study
A. To find out a way to protect porpoises.
B. To make sure the reason why some orcas attack salmon.
C. To solve the problem of marine mammals’ living environment.
D. To better understand the strange behavior of Southern Resident orcas.
33. What is Southern Resident orcas’ favorite food
A. the porpoise. B. the marine mammal.
C. the salmon. D. the whale.
34. According to Giles’ research, which may be a reason for the orcas’ attacking porpoises
A. It’s a kind of social play with porpoises.
B. It is a practice to kill porpoises as their food.
C. The orcas may dislike the smaller porpoises.
D. It’s a way for the orcas to practice their hunting skills.
35 What probably is the writer’s attitude to the research
A Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain.
