The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during the Field Day in elementary school. Small for my age, and more of a bookworm than a sports lover, I had suffered that special humiliationof being picked last for various gym teams. The Field Day, which focused on individual(個體的) skills, was different. In the Softball Throw event, I got my first taste of sporting victory. Credit goes to the example of my first coach, my father. He lifted weights every morning at home. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch.
Once I got to sixth grade and switched to private school, our entire student body was assigned to either the Red or the White team. Throughout the year, we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points. I eventually became president of The Committee of Games. I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team. And at home, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply normal things we did. During the break time, magazines were also quite popular for us teens. These regularly feature d articles on physical exercise. Somehow, my college roommate and I took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force(RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare money to use to join a gym.
So, though it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation(基礎) continue in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered important even on vacation. I still love reading and the arts, too. As far as I'm concerned, life is the richest with my feet in both worlds.
24. What does the underlined word “humiliation” mean in Paragraph 1
A. Responsibility. B. Shock. C. Shame. D. Glory.
25. The author thought she won in the Softball Throw event because of ______.
A. her confidence in her sports skills B. the efforts she put into exercising
C. her advanced sports gloves and hats D. the strong influence of her father
26. What happened after the author stepped into adulthood
A. She changed the focus into reading. B. She stuck to working out.
C. She regularly exercised on weekends. D. She joined Royal Canadian Air Force.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To express her love for sports. B. To show her father’s guidance on sports.
C. To stress the advantages of physical exercise. D. To share her childhood memories about sports.
C
A new observation in Sumatra caught seasoned scientists by surprise. An orangutan(紅毛猩猩) known as Rakus treated a fresh wound with a medicinal plant, making this the first time an animal has been seen applying a biologically active substance(物質) for. its health benefits. This leaves scientists wondering: Did humans invent medicine, or does it pre-date our species
These animals are known to be among the most intelligent non-human primates(靈長類). They’ve been observed using tools, communicating vocally, and engaging in even more complex behaviors like calculated reciprocity, which involves aiding another orangutan with the expectation of being paid back. They can even use Skype with some help from humans.
Roughly 60,000-70,000 of these creatures remain in the wild, about 15,000 of which live on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. That’s where the Suaq Project, part of the Max Planck Institute for Animal Behavior, observes orangutans in their natural habitat.
The researchers noted in June that Rakus had a small wound on his face following a fight with another mature male orangutan. Several days later, Rakus did something no one had ever seen a primate do before. He began carefully picking the leaves from a climbing vine(藤蔓) known as akar kuning.Local human populations have long used these leaves for pain relief and to treat conditions like malaria. Orangutans don’t usually eat these plants: indeed, Rakus didn’t eat them. He chewed (嚼碎) them and then applied the resulting paste to his facial wound.
This is the first time researchers have seen such behavior in 21 years at the Sumatran research station. Wild orangutans are rarely injured, so this may be a rare but widespread behavior. Or perhaps Rakus is the only one that knows this trick. The researchers assumed that early humans may have learned about certain treatment by observing animals engaging in similar behaviors. And here we are, thousands of generations later, still watching and wondering just how smart they are. Increasingly, it looks like orangutans are one cave painting away from civilization.
28. Why does the author mention Skype in paragraph 2
A. To support an idea. B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To explain a problem. D. To present a suggestion.
29. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How Rakus got injured. B. How Rakus treated his wound.
C. What Rakus ate in the wild. D. What Rakus explored in the forest.
30. What can be inferred about the new observation
A. It proves the medical value of a plant leaf.
B. It shows a widespread behavior among orangutans.
C. It answers one of scientists’ questions about medicine.
D. It adds evidence to show the intelligence of orangutans.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Non-human Primates Seen Using Tools in the Wild
B. Orangutans Proved to Be the Most Intelligent Primate
C. A Project Observes Orangutans in Their Natural Habitat
D. An Orangutan Observed Applying Medicinal Plant to a Wound
D
For decades, scientists thought of the brain as the most valuable an consequently most closely guarded part of the body. Locked safely behind the blood brain barrier, it was broadly free of the harm of viruses and the battles started the immune system. Then, about 20 years ago, some researchers began to wonder is the brain really so separated(分離) from the body The answer, according togrowing body of evidence, is no.
The list of brain conditions that have been linked with changes elsewhere in the body is long and growing. Changes in the make-up of the microorganisms in the digestive system have been linked to disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. There is also a theory that infection during pregnancy(孕期) could lead to brain disease sir babies.
The effect is two-way. There is a lengthening list of symptoms(癥狀) not typically viewed as disorders of the nervous system, but the brain plays a large part in them. For example, the development of a fever is influenced by a population of nerve cells that control body temperature and appetite. Evidence is mounting that cancers use nerves to grow and spread.
The interconnection between the brain and body has promising implications for our ability to both understand and treat illnesses. If some brain disorders start outside the brain, then perhaps treatments for them could also reach in from outside. Treatments that take effect through the digestive system, the heart or other organs, would be much easier and less risky than those that must cross the blood-brain barrier.
It also works in the opposite direction. Study shows mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulation(刺激) to a brain area involved in positive emotion and motivation. Activation of the brain reward centre—called the ventral tegmental area(VTA)—seems to cause immune changes that contribute to it. Working out how this happens could help to destroy cancers, enhance responses to vaccines(疫苗) and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, for centuries, have not been considered as being psychologically driven.
32. What do the researchers focus on about the brain
A. Its protecting system. B. Its exposure to diseases.
C. Its controlling function. D. Its connection to the body.
33. How does the author support his idea in paragraph 2
A. By explaining a theory. B. By providing examples.
C. By making comparisons. D. By presenting cause and effect.
34. Which best describes treatments that do not cross the blood-brain barrier
A. Cheaper. B. More specific. C. Safer. D. More direct.
35. What does the study suggest in the last paragraph
A. Brain health depends on immune changes.
B. Brain stimulation leads to negative emotions.
C. The brain can help enhance psychological health.
D. The brain may be key to treating physical diseases.

Durian(榴蓮) prices in China—the world’s top market for the spiky, pungent fruit typically regarded as an expensive item—have fallen by over 30 percent this month, which delights durian lovers a lot and they even couldn’t wait to enjoy one. However, many people find it challenging and overwhelming when faced with a mountain of spiky durian stands when they are buying a satisfying durian. 36
Tap on it(not with your hand). If a durian is ripe, it should “sound like hitting a drum”, as the fruit is more hollow with gap s of air inside the fruit. 37 The seeds are sure to have loosened up when we shake a ripen durian. A darker stem means that the durian has been harvested much earlier, so, obviously, it isn’t suitable for us to choose.
38 A perfectly elliptical durian is not necessarily the most delicious! If the durian has bulging(鼓起的) sides, it is often an indication that the seeds are fleshy. If the sides are concave, it is likely the chamber is empty. Odd-shaped durians also do not mean that there is less meat. 39
It’s commonly acknowledged that larger and rounder fruits will always be drawn attention to, but as for durians, bigger is not necessarily better. 40 It’s wise of you to avoid a durian of huge size which seems delicious.
You won’t miss a tasty durian for your careful choice.
A. Purchasing a durian, listen out for tapping sounds.
B. Next time you buy a durian, do remember to choose a bigger one.
C. In addition, one must also learn to observe the shape of the durian.
D. Here are a few practical tips to help you become a skilled durian picker.
E. Following the tips below, you’ll find it not difficult to break off a durian.
F. The perfect weight of durian is 1.5 to 2kg, which provides the best flavors.
G. They are usually more fragrant(芳香的) and creamier compared to perfectly rounded durians.

閱讀下面短文，根據所給情節進行續寫，使之構成一個完整的故事。
When I started karate (空手道) class a few years ago, I didn’t know a single person. I felt ashamed of having no idea how to do any of the moves. Even though I liked the learning part, I did not like the feeling-worse-than-everyone part!
But one day after class while I was putting my shoes on, a girl named Abigail said, “That last kick we practiced is so hard for me, and you’re so good at it.”
“You must have confused me with someone else,” I replied. “I’m not good at any of it.”
“In that case, I’m in trouble,” she joked, “because you’re the one I stand behind and copy in class.”
I laughed, “Seriously ”
“Seriously!” she laughed, too. After that, we became great friends. However, a few months later when Abigail’s mom got a job in a different state and she had to move away, I was rather sad. I had a tough time going to the karate class for a while after that because I missed Abigail so much.
Then, a girl named Ava joined my class. She was always quiet. Until one day we finally had a conversation.
“It must be weird (怪異的) being the new one in class.” I said.
“So weird!” said Ava. “You do things really differently than we did at my old dojo (柔道館).”
I suddenly realized she’d been silent only because she was new. We started talking more, and we got along so well that we started hanging out after class. Then, almost a year later, guess who showed up at karate.
“This is so cool.” I said, giving Abigail a huge hug. “What are you doing here ”
“My mom’s job in New York didn’t work out,” she explained. “So we got to move back.”
“That’s the best news ever!” I said. “You have to meet my dear friend Ava. And Ava, meet my dear friend Abigail.”
I put my arms around their shoulders. Feeling very excited, I told them I hoped we could get along well and be close friends, while Abigail and Ava stared at each other with some hesitation and an uncertain smile.

答案：
As its name suggests, most short videos are less than 5 minutes. Some shorter ones only last for a few seconds. They are easy and fun to make. They’re like a stage where everyone can have a voice.
On one hand, short videos are a good way to spread news or knowledge. Though short videos, people can share interesting things, gain knowledge and support, or just relax. On the other hand, every coin has two sides. Watching short videos may be a waste of time because it takes up too much people’s time. What’s more, we might get incorrect information from these videos.
I think we can consider short videos as a way to relax in our free time. At the same time, we should develop the ability to tell truth from lies.
第二節（滿分25分）
答案：
Things seemed all right at first. However, with time going by, conflicts came out. Abigail always complained that every time I hung out with Ava, she was left alone, while Ava said that I paid more attention to Abigail, which drove her crazy, believing that our friendship was not what it used to be. Trapped in the dilemma, I, surrounded by the sense of sadness, still felt confused why things turned out to be that troublesome, not knowing how to deal with the problem. Worse still, karate even became the most frightening thing to me.
One day, I simply could not stand it anymore. With tears streaming down my cheeks, I stopped them from arguing and said with a deep sigh, “Why can’t you get along with each other well Both of you are my best friends.” Hearing my words, they didn’t utter a single word, sinking into a deep silence. After what seemed like a century, Ava finally placed her arm with unaccustomed affection around Abigail’s shoulders. Seeing this scene, I took a breath with relief and burst into laughter.
