  Age is just a number, especially when it comes to someone as naturally talented as Miumiu.
  The little girl from Nanjing, China, may be 6 years old, but her musical prowess goes far beyond her years.Not only is she a great guitar player, but she’s also a beautiful singer! It’s no wonder she’s charming thousands with her adorable cover of a classic song.
  Miumiu has been playing the guitar since she was 3, and it shows! In a video, we see her fingers glide (滑過) effortlessly over the strings as she starts a bossa nova rendition (演奏) of Fly Me To The Moon. When her sweet voice joins in, it makes for one magical experience.

Awesome music!” Another added,“Beautifully sung and played.Music is a universal language.It’s all about the feeling, and she has more of that than some 40-year-old musicians I know.” The other commented,“I’m pretty sure I was still eating dirt when I was 6 years old.”

  In 1945, scientist Maisie Carr stood a fence around 5 hectares of peatland on Victoria’s Bogong High Plains.
  That fence would form the first of Maisie’s Plots, two sites where things were watched.They are still used by scientists today and have recently been added to the Victorian Heritage Register.It’s one of Australia’s longest-running ecological experiments (生態實驗), and it began with a true pioneer who had to learn to ride a horse to carry out her work.
  Born in 1912 in Footscray, Melbourne, Maisie showed her scientific ability as a student and was awarded scholarships to Melbourne High School and the University of Melbourne.In 1941 she was employed by the university to research soil erosion (土壤侵蝕) in Victoria’s High Country.
  She set up Maisie’s Plots — one at Rocky Valley and one at Pretty Valley — to see how cattle influenced the plant life on peatland and grassland.At each site, Maisie fenced off one area to keep cattle out, and marked another nearby area.The fenced and unfenced areas were regularly checked for types and amounts of plants, to assess the influence of cattle.This led to stricter controls on cattle eating plants in the area, and finally it was cancelled altogether.
  Dr Manifold, Maisie’s nephew, said Maisie’s many letters showed her ability to adapt to a new and challenging environment.“She made many cattlemen friends, but some cattlemen were concerned that the agreements that allow them to use the High Plains land were at risk because of her, so there were disagreements too, which she managed quite well, I think.”
  John Morgan, from La Trobe University, has been watching over Maisie’s Plots since 1989.He said Maisie’s experiment showed what would later happen when cattle were not allowed to eat the plants on the High Plains after the 2003 bush fires.
  The next generation of scientists have continued to watch over the sites’ recovery since the cattle were taken away.And they do it using the same method Maisie thought of back in the 1940s, to make sure the data is comparable.“No one thought 75 years ago we’d still be doing this,” Dr Morgan said.“Generations of students and researchers have been educated at Maisie’s Plots.”
28.Why did Maisie set up the fence?
A.To raise animals. B.To do her research.
C.To learn horse riding. D.To divide the locals’ fields.
29.What did Maisie do on the two sites of Maisie’s Plots?
A.She planted several types of grass. B.She kept animals away from them.
C.She tried to prevent water and soil loss. D.She examined the effects of cattle on them.
30.What did Dr Manifold say about Maisie?
A.She met with some troubles. B.She suffered from homesickness.
C.She couldn’t get on with the locals. D.She couldn’t adapt to new environments.
31.What does Dr Morgan think of Maisie’s Plots?
A.They hold great cultural value. B.They should be protected and spread.
C.They serve as models for scientists today. D.They contribute greatly to wildfire prevention.

  The story about horses in North America told in several written histories is in need of an update, according to a new study.After examining archaeological remains (考古遺骸) of horses, researchers suggest Indigenous peoples (土著居民) had spread the animals through the American West by the first half of the 1600s — before they met Europeans.
  The findings line up with oral histories from Indigenous groups, which tell of interactions with horses before settlers arrived in their homelands.Meanwhile, written European texts from the 1700s and 1800s stated that horses only spread through the area after 1680.
  Horses originated in the Americas around four million years ago, but by about 10,000 years ago, they had mostly disappeared from the record.Spanish settlers likely first brought horses back to the Americas in 1519.According to the new study, Indigenous peoples then transported horses north along trade networks.
  To find when the animals spread, researchers examined the remains of more than twenty horses discovered across the Western US rather than simply walking around the countryside on their own, the horses appear to have been part of Native American culture.Signs of teeth problems on one horse and growths on the bones of the head of another suggested people had put bridles (馬勒) on the animals.Certain chemical elements (化學元素) in the animals’ teeth suggested they ate maize, an Indigenous plant.And another horse had a previously broken facial bone that had fully recovered, meaning it might have received medical treatment.
  Researchers compared the ancient horses’ DNA with that of modern horses and found that the centuries-old horses had largely Spanish origins.Together, the findings suggest horses spread “from Spanish settlements in the American Southwest to the northern Rockies and central Great Plains by the first half of the 17th century”.
  The findings also highlight the importance of Indigenous oral traditions in understanding history.“Our cultures have been so misunderstood for so long,”says co-author Yvette Collin.“Too often history has been told around us, without us.”
32.What needs to be updated according to the new study?
A.When horses showed up in the Americas. B.Who introduced horses to North America.
C.When Native Americans first met Europeans. D.Who spread horses through the American West.
33.What did researchers find out about ancient horses from the remains?
A.They had hardly any Spanish origins. B.They were born with tooth disease.
C.They played a role in natives’ lives. D.They were badly treated by natives.
34.What does Collin think of oral histories?
A.They spread easily. B.They show the truth.
C.They pass down traditions. D.They unite Indigenous groups.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Written Texts Explain Human-horse Interactions
B.Oral Histories Help Us Understand Indigenous Cultures
C.New Research Rewrites the History of American Horses
D.Archaeological Remains Are the Key to Learning about the Past

  You are enjoying a nice dream until your alarm suddenly goes off. 36  Is your clock out of control?No.It’s just winter, making the sun rise later so it will be twice as hard to crawl out of bed into the cold darkness.
  As the day gets shorter, our mornings lose that crucial light to wake us up, so waking up gets harder.That means you’ll need to put in extra effort to get to work on time. 37 
   38  Summer or winter, you should aim to go to bed at about the same time every evening and wake up at about the same time every morning.Try to give yourself time for eight hours per night.
  Avoid strong light near your bedtime.So if you like reading before you close your eyes, try an actual book or an E-ink screen, which doesn’t emit (發出) the harsh light that phones and tablets do.
  Buy a wake-up light.If you still have trouble with dark mornings, it might be time to introduce more light into your room. 39 
  Give yourself something to look forward to. 40  Sure, you might have to get up for work, but you’ll want to be awake if you are expecting a delicious breakfast, or a workout that is actually fun.
A.Stick to a regular schedule.
B.We have a few tips that might help.
C.Too much light can do harm to your eyes.
D.But you just don’t want to get out of your warm bed.
E.But when you look out of the window, it’s still black outside.
F.Waking up is easier when you have a good reason to be conscious.
G.Some companies make some popular lamps that produce natural light during gray winter days.

  Growing up, I was always surrounded by music.The music included not just the ’90s children’s favourites like Don Spencer and The Wiggles,  56  everything from ABBA to Ella Fitzgerald.
  Long car trips were always spent  57  (try) to give my younger sister and me a “musical  58  (educate)”.We’d listen to full collections of The Beatles, while my father talked from the driver’s seat about how revolutionary (革命性的) they were for the development of pop music.He’d recall  59  first time he heard each song, and how old he was when he  60  (get) his first record.He would tell us that he and Mum would argue over  61  were “the Fab Four” — ABBA or The Beatles ...There was so much to learn from each song if I just listened.
  The  62  (old) I get, the more I want to hold onto these memories.I want to capture (獲得) the stories  63  (tell) by my father, the dance moves of my mother, my own musical growth ...
  I want to recall them when my parents are no longer with me, and share them with my children when they’re old enough  64  (understand).That’s why I’ve started keeping a list of these “memory songs” in a Spotify playlist.
  Every time one springs to mind, I add it to the playlist.I know one day I’ll listen back,  65  (hopeful) recalling every story connected to each song.

  Luz felt anxious as she walked to the front of the classroom.She and her best friend Lavonne had asked their science teacher, Ms Ohanian, if she could speak to the class before it started.Ms Ohanian had agreed to set aside a few minutes for her.
  “Listen up, class,” Ms Ohanian announced, “Luz wants to share something with us.”
  Actually, Luz was shy and didn’t want to talk about her difficulties using the school bathrooms.But her deskmate Lavonne encouraged her to speak out about it.Luz was very nervous, so she took a deep breath.
  “Hi, everyone,” she began,“you know me from class, but you don’t all know my whole story.I was in a car accident in the fourth grade, and as a result, my left arm doesn’t really move anymore.
  Luz saw the whole class look at her arm.She hated feeling different from everyone else.She was painful, but she continued.
  “It’s hard for me to use the school bathrooms.The door is really heavy and only opens with a knob (球形把手).My doctor told me that moving a knob can cause damage to my wrist, and advised me to look for rooms with handles — but there aren’t any bathroom doors like that in our school.Plus, the soap dispensers (皂液瓶) in our bathrooms are the kind you need two moving hands for.So,” she said,“after school on Thursday, Lavonne and I are going to sit in the headmaster’s office to ask for new doors, handles, and soap dispensers.We’d like you to join us.Um ...thank you.”
  “Well, can’t you just ask for help when you use the bathroom?” a girl asked.
  Luz didn’t know what to say.She looked to Lavonne, silently asking her for help.
  “Do you want to ask for help every time you wash your hands?”Lavonne asked.“The bathroom should be something everyone can use, without needing help for things people can usually do.”
  As Luz sat down, a few kids applauded.She felt relieved, and smiled when classmates called out “Good job!” But she was still worried that nobody would show up for her on Thursday.
注意:1.續寫詞數應為150左右;
2.請按如下格式作答。
  When Luz and Lavonne arrived at the headmaster’s office on Thursday afternoon, they were surprised.
                      
                      
                      
                      
                      
                      
                      
                      
  Luz’s face was red from smiling when the headmaster arrived.

W:I worked all together in three different shoe shops.In the first one I worked for a year and then it closed down.After that they moved me to another one, the same company.Three months later they moved me to a new shoe shop because they were short of hands.But half a year later I left my job when I had to study for my exams at school.
(Text 9)
W:Oh, where are we going?
M:I want to show you something.
W:I know, but what is it?
M:A farm.It’s just down this road.It’s a small place, but at least it would be our own.
W:A farm? How can we afford to buy a farm?
M:It isn’t large, only 1 acre.We wouldn’t have to pay very much right now.
W:Is there a house on the farm?
M:A small one, two bedrooms, but it needs to be fixed up a little.I can do the job myself.
W:OK.Is there enough space for a kitchen garden?
M:There is about half an acre behind the house.That’s plenty of space.We can probably grow a lot of our own food.
W:What are you thinking about growing?
M:Well, it really isn’t big enough for corn.I thought we might try to raise a crop of potatoes.
W:Do we have enough money to get all of these?
M:I think we’ve saved enough.We can also ask John about the money he borrowed from us.

第二部分
語篇解讀:本文是一篇應用文。文章介紹了一個線上英語課程的相關情況。
21.B 細節理解題。根據PRICE & DURATION中的You can study flexibly in 6, 12, or 18 weeks.We recommend the 12-week study plan to maximise learning and enhance communication skills.可知,本文向11到17歲的青少年推薦了為期12周的學習計劃。
22.C 細節理解題。根據表格中Course fee部分的內容可知,6周的學習需要花費6000印度盧比。
23.B 細節理解題。根據PLEASE NOTE部分中的Registration will close 24 hours prior to course commencement (開始).可知,申請人應在課程開始24小時前報名。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇新聞報道。6歲中國女孩自彈自唱的視頻走紅網絡,人們紛紛對這個可愛的女孩表達喜歡和贊美。
24.C 詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞下文中的Not only is she a great guitar player, but she’s also a beautiful singer!可知,6歲的Miumiu不僅是一位出色的吉他手,而且還是一位出色的歌手。因此,她的音樂“才能”遠遠超過她的年齡。
25.A 細節理解題。根據第三段內容可知,在該視頻中,Miumiu自彈自唱了Fly Me To The Moon這首歌。倒數第二段中的Beautifully sung and played.也是提示。
26.B 細節理解題。根據倒數第二段中三位網友對該視頻的評論可知,他們都毫不吝嗇地贊揚了Miumiu的音樂才華。
27.A 推理判斷題。在最后一段中,作者指出Miumiu正在成名的路上,盡管她對我們(粉絲)來說已經是明星了。她的父母一定很(為她)驕傲,并鼓勵Miumiu永遠不要停止做她喜歡的事(即音樂)。由此可推知,作者認為Miumiu的未來不可限量。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。澳大利亞科學家Maisie Carr在1945年建立了Maisie’s Plots,以研究畜牧對植物的影響,這兩處監測站目前仍在使用。
28.B 細節理解題。根據第二段最后一句可知,科學家Maisie豎起柵欄是為了進行科學研究。
29.D 細節理解題。根據第四段內容可知,科學家Maisie建立了Maisie’s Plots,這是兩處監測站,她通過監測這兩個區域的植物的種類和數量來評估畜牧對植物的影響。
30.A 細節理解題。根據第五段中Manifold所說的話可知,Maisie在工作過程中遇到了一些阻力,當地的一些牧民不太支持她。
31.C 觀點態度題。根據最后一段中Morgan博士的話可知,75年前沒有人想到我們還在做這件事(使用Maisie 20世紀40年代使用的方法),一代又一代的學生和研究人員在Maisie’s Plots接受教育。由此可推斷,在Morgan看來,Maisie’s Plots現在仍是科學家們學習的研究模式。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。新研究表明,將馬在美洲西部傳播開來的是土著居民而非歐洲人。
32.D 推理判斷題。根據第一段第二句可知,研究人員發現,土著居民在與歐洲人接觸之前就已經將馬傳播到了美國西部;根據第二段中的written European texts from the 1700s and 1800s stated that horses only spread through the area after 1680可知,18世紀和19世紀的歐洲書面文獻指出,馬在1680年后才在該地區傳播。由此可推知,該研究發現改變了原先“是歐洲人將馬在美國西部傳播開來”的觀點。
33.C 細節理解題。根據第四段中的the horses appear to have been part of Native American culture ...people had put bridles (馬勒) on the animals可知,土著居民已經給古代馬戴上了馬勒,即將它們作為騎乘工具。由此可知,古代馬在土著居民的生活中發揮著一定作用。
34.B 推理判斷題。根據最后一段中Collin所說的話可知,她認為人們往往忽視了土著居民的口述歷史,因此不能正確地還原歷史真相。由此可推知,她認為口述歷史反映了真實情況,應該得到重視。
35.C 標題歸納題。通讀全文可知,本文主要介紹了一項新研究,研究發現將馬在美國西部傳播開來的是土著居民而非歐洲人,并介紹了其研究背景、研究過程和研究結果等內容。故C項最適合作本文標題。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了如何擺脫冬季“起床困難癥”。
36.E 空前一句講到,當你正在享受美夢時,鬧鐘突然響了。再根據Is your clock out of control?和下文內容可推斷,冬天的早晨,鬧鐘響起時,外面天還是黑的。E項(但是當你向窗外看去,外面依然黑漆漆的)解釋了你認為鬧鐘不該響的理由,并銜接上下文,符合語境。
37.B 根據下面幾段介紹可知,下文主要介紹了擺脫“起床困難癥”的幾個方法。B項(我們有一些可能會有所幫助的建議)引出下文,符合語境。
38.A 根據空后內容可知,無論夏天還是冬天,睡覺和起床都要有固定的時間。A項(堅持一個有規律的時間表)概括本段內容,符合語境。
39.G 根據空前內容可知,如果早起有困難的話,你可能需要讓房間里有更多光線。G項(有些公司生產一些能在灰蒙蒙的冬天產生自然光的燈,它們很受歡迎)呼應本段首句的建議,符合語境。
40.F 本段內容是給自己設定除了工作之外的其他起床的理由。故F項(當你有為之清醒過來的好理由時,起床會更容易些)符合語境。
第三部分
語篇解讀:本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了特尼爾無意間看到了關于社區青年庇護所的小冊子,對此感到非常震驚。她決定召集有相同音樂愛好的朋友一起舉辦演唱會活動為該庇護所籌集資金,最終該活動大獲成功。

46.B 根據上文語境和下文中的the youth shelter was restored and run again可知,此處指她決定召集一些朋友開一場演唱會,挨家挨戶地尋找贊助者,并將收入捐贈給管理該庇護所的組織。run意為“經營;管理”,符合語境。interview意為“采訪”;ignore意為“忽略”。
47.D 根據上文中的Unfortunately和下文中的due to a lack of funding可知,庇護所將因缺乏資金而關閉,所以負責人是傷心的。sad意為“傷心的”,符合語境。

51.C 根據上文中的raised $30,000可知,此處指目前Big Hearts for Big Kids已經籌集了100萬美元。collect意為“募集”,符合語境。
52.A 根據上文語境可知,特尼爾和她的朋友們每年舉辦活動是為了給庇護所的孩子們籌集資金,所以這個活動對數百名依賴庇護所的兒童來說是有益的。beneficial意為“有益的”,符合語境。sensitive意為“敏感的”;familiar意為“熟悉的”;convenient意為“便利的”。
53.D 根據下文中的people coming together可知,此處強調的是團結的重要性,指這項活動有助于艾伯塔省大草原城社區的團結。united意為“團結的”,符合語境。

57.trying 考查非謂語動詞。spend (sth) doing sth花(時間)做某事。

63.told 考查非謂語動詞。設空處作后置定語,修飾stories,且動詞tell和stories之間是邏輯上的動賓關系,故填told。

Concert Performed Jointly by
Students and Staff Successfully Held
  Last Friday night the whole school witnessed a successful concert at the school hall, which aimed to help students and staff learn more about music from all over the world.
  The musicians, who were actually teachers and students, presented the audience with different styles of music, such as Chinese folk music, and Western classical music.The perfect performance was a feast for the ears of music lovers.
  As a bridge of communication, the concert not only promoted the friendship between students and teachers, but also offered a platform for the exchange of different cultures.
第二節
  When Luz and Lavonne arrived at the headmaster’s office on Thursday afternoon, they were surprised.Just about every classmate was standing in the office — and some even brought friends!They held signs that said things like “Bathroom Access Now” or pictures of single-hand push soap dispensers and doors with handles.The office was so full that some of Luz’s supporters ended up standing in the hallway.
  Luz’s face was red from smiling when the headmaster arrived.He looked around and asked, “What’s all this?”Luz looked over at Lavonne.Luz was still nervous, but she felt so good with her classmates’ support.She looked at the headmaster and said,“I’m Luz, and I’m here to talk about bathroom accessibility.”Then she told the headmaster her sad story and her appeals.The headmaster nodded as he listened.Finally, he made a call and arranged for workers to solve the problems for the benefit of students like Luz in a day or two.Luz felt so excited, and so did all the other students.

now.
W:Is there a house on the farm?
M:A small one, two bedrooms, but it needs to be fixed up a little.I can
do the job myself.
W:OK. Is there enough space for a kitchen garden?
M:There is about half an acre behind the house.That’s plenty of space.We
can probably grow a lot of our own food.
W:What are you thinking about growing?
M:Well, it really isn’t big enough for corn.I thought we might try to
raise a crop of potatoes.
W:Do we have enough money to get all of these?
M:I think we’ve saved enough.We can also ask John about the money he
borrowed from us.

  Age is just a number, especially when it comes to someone as
naturally talented as Miumiu.
  The little girl from Nanjing, China, may be 6 years old, but her
musical prowess goes far beyond her years.Not only is she a great guitar
player, but she’s also a beautiful singer! It’s no wonder she’s charming
thousands with her adorable cover of a classic song.
  Miumiu has been playing the guitar since she was 3, and it shows!
In a video, we see her fingers glide (滑過) effortlessly over the strings
as she starts a bossa nova rendition (演奏) of Fly Me To The Moon.
When her sweet voice joins in, it makes for one magical experience.
  Listening to her, we can’t help but smile.She’s that good — and that
cute!
  If that isn’t enough to make you fall in love, her personality is great
too.Each video on her YouTube channel comes with the statement:
“Thank you for your encouragement.I will continue to study hard to
achieve my dream to be an excellent guitarist.”
  Musicians with decades of experience are wishing they had half her
talent!
  One Internet user wrote,“If this is where you’re at when you’re
6 ...you’ve got a bright future ahead of you! Awesome music!”
Another added,“Beautifully sung and played.Music is a universal
language.It’s all about the feeling, and she has more of that than some
40-year-old musicians I know.” The other commented,“I’m pretty sure

  In 1945, scientist Maisie Carr stood a fence around 5 hectares of
peatland on Victoria’s Bogong High Plains.
  That fence would form the first of Maisie’s Plots, two sites where
things were watched.They are still used by scientists today and have
recently been added to the Victorian Heritage Register.It’s one of
Australia’s longest-running ecological experiments (生態實驗), and it
began with a true pioneer who had to learn to ride a horse to carry out her
work.
  Born in 1912 in Footscray, Melbourne, Maisie showed her
scientific ability as a student and was awarded scholarships to Melbourne
High School and the University of Melbourne.In 1941 she was employed
by the university to research soil erosion (土壤侵蝕) in Victoria’s High
Country.
  She set up Maisie’s Plots — one at Rocky Valley and one at Pretty
Valley — to see how cattle influenced the plant life on peatland and
grassland.At each site, Maisie fenced off one area to keep cattle out,
and marked another nearby area.The fenced and unfenced areas were
regularly checked for types and amounts of plants, to assess the influence
of cattle.This led to stricter controls on cattle eating plants in the area,
and finally it was cancelled altogether.
  Dr Manifold, Maisie’s nephew, said Maisie’s many letters showed
her ability to adapt to a new and challenging environment.“She made
many cattlemen friends, but some cattlemen were concerned that the
agreements that allow them to use the High Plains land were at risk
because of her, so there were disagreements too, which she managed
quite well, I think.”
  John Morgan, from La Trobe University, has been watching over
Maisie’s Plots since 1989.He said Maisie’s experiment showed what would
later happen when cattle were not allowed to eat the plants on the High
Plains after the 2003 bush fires.
  The next generation of scientists have continued to watch over the
sites’ recovery since the cattle were taken away.And they do it using the
same method Maisie thought of back in the 1940s, to make sure the data
is comparable.“No one thought 75 years ago we’d still be doing this,”
Dr Morgan said.“Generations of students and researchers have been
educated at Maisie’s Plots.”

28. Why did Maisie set up the fence?
A. To raise animals.
B. To do her research.
C. To learn horse riding.
D. To divide the locals’ fields.
解析: 細節理解題。根據第二段最后一句可知,科學家Maisie
豎起柵欄是為了進行科學研究。
29.What did Maisie do on the two sites of Maisie’s Plots?
A. She planted several types of grass.
B. She kept animals away from them.
C. She tried to prevent water and soil loss.
D. She examined the effects of cattle on them.
解析: 細節理解題。根據第四段內容可知,科學家Maisie建立

的種類和數量來評估畜牧對植物的影響。
30. What did Dr Manifold say about Maisie?
A. She met with some troubles.
B. She suffered from homesickness.
C. She couldn’t get on with the locals.
D. She couldn’t adapt to new environments.

cultural value.
B. They should be protected and spread.
C. They serve as models for scientists today.
D. They contribute greatly to wildfire prevention.
解析: 觀點態度題。根據最后一段中Morgan博士的話可知,
75年前沒有人想到我們還在做這件事(使用Maisie 20世紀40年代
使用的方法),一代又一代的學生和研究人員在Maisie’s Plots接受
教育。由此可推斷,在Morgan看來,Maisie’s Plots現在仍是科學家
們學習的研究模式。

  The story about horses in North America told in several written
histories is in need of an update, according to a new study.After
examining archaeological remains (考古遺骸) of horses, researchers
suggest Indigenous peoples (土著居民) had spread the animals through
the American West by the first half of the 1600s — before they met
Europeans.
  The findings line up with oral histories from Indigenous groups,
which tell of interactions with horses before settlers arrived in their
homelands.Meanwhile, written European texts from the 1700s and 1800s
stated that horses only spread through the area after 1680.
  Horses originated in the Americas around four million years ago, but
by about 10,000 years ago, they had mostly disappeared from the
record.Spanish settlers likely first brought horses back to the Americas in
1519.According to the new study, Indigenous peoples then transported
horses north along trade networks.
  To find when the animals spread, researchers examined the remains
of more than twenty horses discovered across the Western US rather than
simply walking around the countryside on their own, the horses appear to
have been part of Native American culture.Signs of teeth problems on one
horse and growths on the bones of the head of another suggested people
had put bridles (馬勒) on the animals.Certain chemical elements (化
學元素) in the animals’ teeth suggested they ate maize, an Indigenous
plant.And another horse had a previously broken facial bone that had fully
recovered, meaning it might have received medical treatment.
  Researchers compared the ancient horses’ DNA with that of modern
horses and found that the centuries-old horses had largely Spanish
origins.Together, the findings suggest horses spread “from Spanish
settlements in the American Southwest to the northern Rockies and central
Great Plains by the first half of the 17th century”.
  The findings also highlight the importance of Indigenous oral
traditions in understanding history.“Our cultures have been so
misunderstood for so long,”says co-author Yvette Collin.“Too often
history has been told around us, without us.”

語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。新研究表明,將馬在美洲西部傳播
開來的是土著居民而非歐洲人。
32. What needs to be updated according to the new study?
A. When horses showed up in the Americas.
B. Who introduced horses to North America.
C. When Native Americans first met Europeans.
D. Who spread horses through the American West.
解析: 推理判斷題。根據第一段第二句可知,研究人員發現,
土著居民在與歐洲人接觸之前就已經將馬傳播到了美國西部;根
據第二段中的written European texts from the 1700s and 1800s stated
that horses only spread through the area after 1680可知,18世紀和19
世紀的歐洲書面文獻指出,馬在1680年后才在該地區傳播。由此
可推知,該研究發現改變了原先“是歐洲人將馬在美國西部傳播
開來”的觀點。
33. What did researchers find out about ancient horses from the remains?
A. They had hardly any Spanish origins.
B. They were born with tooth disease.
C. They played a role in natives’ lives.
D. They were badly treated by natives.
解析: 細節理解題。根據第四段中的the horses appear to have
been part of Native American culture ...people had put bridles (馬
勒) on the animals可知,土著居民已經給古代馬戴上了馬勒,即
將它們作為騎乘工具。由此可知,古代馬在土著居民的生活中發
揮著一定作用。
34. What does Collin think of oral histories?
A. They spread easily.
B. They show the truth.
C. They pass down traditions.
D. They unite Indigenous groups.
解析: 推理判斷題。根據最后一段中Collin所說的話可知,她
認為人們往往忽視了土著居民的口述歷史,因此不能正確地還原
歷史真相。由此可推知,她認為口述歷史反映了真實情況,應該
得到重視。
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Written Texts Explain Human-horse Interactions
B. Oral Histories Help Us Understand Indigenous Cultures
C. New Research Rewrites the History of American Horses
D. Archaeological Remains Are the Key to Learning about the Past
解析: 標題歸納題。通讀全文可知,本文主要介紹了一項新研
究,研究發現將馬在美國西部傳播開來的是土著居民而非歐洲
人,并介紹了其研究背景、研究過程和研究結果等內容。故C項最
適合作本文標題。

  You are enjoying a nice dream until your alarm suddenly goes
off.  36  Is your clock out of control?No.It’s just winter, making the
sun rise later so it will be twice as hard to crawl out of bed into the cold
darkness.
  As the day gets shorter, our mornings lose that crucial light to wake
us up, so waking up gets harder.That means you’ll need to put in extra
effort to get to work on time.  37 
    38  Summer or winter, you should aim to go to bed at about the
same time every evening and wake up at about the same time every
morning.Try to give yourself time for eight hours per night.
  Avoid strong light near your bedtime.So if you like reading before you
close your eyes, try an actual book or an E-ink screen, which doesn’t
emit (發出) the harsh light that phones and tablets do.
  Buy a wake-up light.If you still have trouble with dark mornings, it
might be time to introduce more light into your room.  39 
  Give yourself something to look forward to.  40  Sure, you might
have to get up for work, but you’ll want to be awake if you are expecting
a delicious breakfast, or a workout that is actually fun.
A. Stick to a regular schedule.
B. We have a few tips that might help.
C. Too much light can do harm to your eyes.
D. But you just don’t want to get out of your warm bed.
E. But when you look out of the window, it’s still black outside.
F. Waking up is easier when you have a good reason to be conscious.
G. Some companies make some popular lamps that produce natural light
during gray winter days.

符合語境。
38. A 根據空后內容可知,無論夏天還是冬天,睡覺和起床都要
有固定的時間。A項(堅持一個有規律的時間表)概括本段內容,
符合語境。
39. G 根據空前內容可知,如果早起有困難的話,你可能需要讓房間
里有更多光線。G項(有些公司生產一些能在灰蒙蒙的冬天產生自然
光的燈,它們很受歡迎)呼應本段首句的建議,符合語境。
40. F 本段內容是給自己設定除了工作之外的其他起床的理由。故F
項(當你有為之清醒過來的好理由時,起床會更容易些)符合語境。

  閱讀下面材料,根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段,使之構
成一篇完整的短文。
  Luz felt anxious as she walked to the front of the classroom.She and
her best friend Lavonne had asked their science teacher, Ms Ohanian, if
she could speak to the class before it started.Ms Ohanian had agreed to set
aside a few minutes for her.
  “Listen up, class,” Ms Ohanian announced, “Luz wants to
share something with us.”
  Actually, Luz was shy and didn’t want to talk about her difficulties
using the school bathrooms.But her deskmate Lavonne encouraged her to
speak out about it.Luz was very nervous, so she took a deep breath.
  “Hi, everyone,” she began,“you know me from class, but
you don’t all know my whole story.I was in a car accident in the fourth
grade, and as a result, my left arm doesn’t really move anymore.
  Luz saw the whole class look at her arm.She hated feeling different
from everyone else.She was painful, but she continued.
  “It’s hard for me to use the school bathrooms.The door is really
heavy and only opens with a knob (球形把手).My doctor told me that
moving a knob can cause damage to my wrist, and advised me to look for
rooms with handles — but there aren’t any bathroom doors like that in our
school.Plus, the soap dispensers (皂液瓶) in our bathrooms are the
kind you need two moving hands for.So,” she said,“after school on
Thursday, Lavonne and I are going to sit in the headmaster’s office to ask
for new doors, handles, and soap dispensers.We’d like you to join
us.Um ...thank you.”
  “Well, can’t you just ask for help when you use the bathroom?”
a girl asked.
  Luz didn’t know what to say.She looked to Lavonne, silently asking
her for help.
  “Do you want to ask for help every time you wash your
hands?”Lavonne asked.“The bathroom should be something everyone
can use, without needing help for things people can usually do.”
  As Luz sat down, a few kids applauded.She felt relieved, and
smiled when classmates called out “Good job!” But she was still
worried that nobody would show up for her on Thursday.
注意:1.續寫詞數應為150左右;
2. 請按如下格式作答。

參考范文:
  When Luz and Lavonne arrived at the headmaster’s office on
Thursday afternoon, they were surprised.Just about every classmate was
standing in the office — and some even brought friends!They held signs
that said things like “Bathroom Access Now” or pictures of single-hand
push soap dispensers and doors with handles.The office was so full that
some of Luz’s supporters ended up standing in the hallway.
  Luz’s face was red from smiling when the headmaster arrived.He
looked around and asked, “What’s all this?”Luz looked over at
Lavonne.Luz was still nervous, but she felt so good with her classmates’
support.She looked at the headmaster and said,“I’m Luz, and I’m here
to talk about bathroom accessibility.”Then she told the headmaster her
sad story and her appeals.The headmaster nodded as he listened.Finally,
he made a call and arranged for workers to solve the problems for the
benefit of students like Luz in a day or two.Luz felt so excited, and so did
all the other students.
