　　Bhutan is one of the world’s most mysterious countries.Visiting it can be challenging， but there’s a new drive to finally cross it off the bucket list in 2022， as its breathtaking Trans Bhutan Trail will be reopening to travelers for the first time in 60 years.
　　According to the Bhutan Canada Foundation — the main donor to the restoration project — the 250-mile route connects nine districts， 28 local governments， one national park and 400 historic and cultural sites.Travelers who follow the entire trail route will cross 18 major bridges and climb 10，000 stairs.It will be possible to walk or mountain bike there.
　　“This is a community-based project in both its building and operation which will restore an ancient cultural treasure and provide a sustainable， net zero carbon experience in the country for travelers，” says Sam Blyth， chair of the Bhutan Canada Foundation.“The Trans Bhutan Trail also reflects the country’s philosophy of Gross National Happiness and will allow the children of Bhutan to walk in the footsteps of their ancestors.”
　　The trail’s westernmost point is the town of Haa， which is near the border with Xizang， China.The easternmost point is Trashigang， near the border of India’s Arunachal Pradesh state.According to a representative for the Bhutan Canada Foundation， an ambitious walker could cover the whole trail in about a month， but most tourists will likely enjoy shorter parts of the trail on three-， four-， or seven-day trips.
　　Due to its “high value， low impact” tourism strategy， Bhutan averages just a few thousand visitors in a typical year.As part of its aim to avoid overtourism， the country charges a mandatory （強(qiáng)制的） $250 per day fee， which includes land transport， accommodations， food and guide service.The cost makes it somewhat prohibitive for many people to visit.And walkers to the Trans Bhutan Trail will have to apply for a permit.They can do this beginning in April.

　　The area of the Yellow River Wetland Park in Yinchuan， capital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region， was once a place local people avoided：the waste water caused awful smells and almost no grass could grow on the land.
　　Now， the park has become not only a popular destination for locals to take a walk， but also a habitat frequented by migratory birds （候鳥）.
　　As secretary general of Ningxia’s bird observation association， Li Zhijun witnessed the huge changes at the park.According to him， the Yinchuan wetland park， together with other wetland areas along the Yellow River in Ningxia， has become a famous spot for bird photographers.More habitats for migratory birds are appearing as the environment improves， added Li in an interview with China Daily.
　　The Yinchuan wetland park mirrors China’s achievements in wetland protection.On 10 November， seven Chinese cities were awarded “international wetland cities” at the 14th Meeting of the Conference of the Contracting Parties to the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands（COP 14）.So far， there are 13 wetland cities in China， showing a great variety of patterns and styles.
　　For example， Wuhan， the capital city of Hubei Province， is known as a “city of a hundred lakes”.The city has five large wetland reserves， where tens of thousands of birds come to stay in wintertime， noted the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
　　Liangping district in Chongqing， however， is totally different from natural wetland.It is more closely tied to human activity.People built small wetlands in rural areas.What’s more， they have combined these wetlands with organic farms， homestays， and healthcare centers， which has resulted in an income increase of 52，000 yuan per household.
　　Panjin in Liaoning Province is another amazing wetland city.In the past， the city has long suffered from environmental problems caused by oil production.But now in the coastal wetlands， seagrass turns a breathtaking red every autumn， creating beautiful “red beaches”.
　　Chen Zhihai， a local fishery worker， said to Panjin Daily，“In the past， there were almost no wild fish and shrimp.Thanks to the efforts of ordinary Panjin people， now the wetland is back again！”
5.Why is the Yellow River Wetland Park mentioned at the beginning of the article？（　　）
A.To compare it with other famous wetlands.
B.To show China’s achievements in wetland protection.
C.To explain why it has become a popular destination.
D.To explain the importance of wetlands to migratory birds.
6.How do wetlands in Liangping differ from other wetlands with more natural scenery？（　　）
A.Thousands of birds stay there in winter.
B.Small wetlands were built near lakes.
C.They are more closely connected to human activity.
D.They are popular destinations for people to take a walk.
7.What is special about the coastal wetlands in Panjin？（　　）
A.The water there is purple.
B.They have beautiful “red beaches”.
C.They are home to different types of shrimps.
D.They are an ideal destination for fishing.
8.In which part of a newspaper will you probably find the article？（　　）
A.Lifestyle. B.Sports.
C.Business. D.Travel.

　　A recent study，led by Professor Andrew Barron， Dr HaDi MaBouDi， and Professor James Marshall， illustrates how evolution has fine-tuned honey bees to make quick judgments while minimizing danger.
　　“Animal lives are full of decisions，” says Professor Andrew Barron.“A honey bee has a brain smaller than a sesame （芝麻） seed.And yet it can make decisions faster and more accurately than we can.A robot programmed to do a bee’s job would need the backup of a supercomputer.”
　　Bees need to work quickly and efficiently.They need to make decisions.Which flower will have nectar （花蜜）？ While they’re flying， they face threats from the air.While landing， they’re vulnerable to potential predators （捕食者）， some of which use camouflage （偽裝） to look like flowers.
　　Researchers trained 20 bees to associate each of the five different coloured “flower disks” with their visit history of reward and punishment.Blue flowers always had sugar juice.Green flowers always had a type of liquid with a bitter taste for bees.Other colours sometimes had glucose （葡萄糖）.
　　“Then we introduced each bee to a ‘garden’ with artificial ‘flowers’.We filmed each bee and timed their decision-making process，” says Dr MaBouDi.“If the bees were confident that a flower would have food， they quickly decided to land on it， taking an average of 0.6 seconds.If they were confident that a flower wouldn’t have food， they made a decision just as quickly.If unsure， they took on average 1.4 seconds — and the time reflected the probability that a flower had food.”
　　The team then built a computer model mirroring the bees’ decision-making process.They found the structure of the model looked very similar to the physical layout of a bee brain.“AI researchers can learn much from bees and other ‘simple’ animals.Millions of years of evolution has led to incredibly efficient brains with very low power requirements，” says Professor James Marshall， who co-founded a company that uses insect brain patterns to enable machines to move autonomously， like nature.
9.Why does Professor Andrew Barron mention “a supercomputer”？（　　）
A.To illustrate its similarities to a honey bee’s brain.
B.To explain how animals arrive at informed decisions.
C.To demonstrate how a robot could finish a honey bee’s job.
D.To emphasize a honey bee’s remarkable decision-making abilities.
10.Which of the following can best replace “vulnerable to” underlined in Paragraph 3？（　　）
A.deeply critical to
B.easily harmed by
C.closely followed by
D.highly sensitive to
11.What influenced the trained bees’ speed in making decisions？（　　）
A.Their judgments about reward and punishment.
B.Their preference for the colours of flower disks.
C.Their confidence in the presence or absence of food.
D.Their ability to distinguish real flowers from artificial ones.
12.What message does Professor James Marshall want to give us？（　　）
A.Biology can inspire future AI.
B.AI should be more energy-efficient.
C.The power of bee brains is underestimated.
D.Autonomous machines are changing nature.

　　With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever， why not book your next domestic vacation on a train？ Compared to other alternatives， it’s comfortable and relaxing.Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
　　Plan ahead.Most long-distance trains， especially the sleeping car accommodations， sell out very quickly.13.（　　） But no matter when you travel， it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.
　　Use a travel agent.Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details， make suggestions， and then handle the actual reservations.A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets.14.（　　） Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
　　Bring a blanket.When you’re riding on trains， you won’t be provided with a blanket for free， even if your trip is an overnight one.15.（　　） In the summer in particular， the air conditioning can make them quite cold.
　　Arrive early.Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week， so missing yours can be a disaster.16.（　　） Note：The times listed on the schedules are departure times， not arrival times.
　　Have fun.17.（　　） Read a book， knit， do a crossword puzzle， or simply watch the world unfold outside the window.To calculate your speed as you do， divide 3，600 （the number of seconds in an hour） by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile （the distance between two mile posts）.If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile， you’re going 67.92 mph.
A.Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B.You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C.The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D.That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E.You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F.Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G.He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.

Ⅰ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇新聞報道。文章主要講述不丹小徑的重新開通讓人們?nèi)ド衩夭坏ぢ糜蔚膲粝虢K于成真。
1.B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的Trans Bhutan Trail will be reopening to travelers for the first time in 60 years可知，不丹小徑在60年后又一次向游客開放，所以它已經(jīng)有幾十年不被使用了。
2.C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句可知，不丹小徑也反映了不丹的國民幸福指數(shù)的理念，它將讓不丹的孩子們追隨祖先的腳步，所以它教會人們向他們的祖先學(xué)習(xí)。
3.D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的According to a representative for the Bhutan Canada Foundation， an ambitious walker could cover the whole trail in about a month可知，要走完整條小徑大約需要花費(fèi)一個月的時間。
4.C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句可知，不丹的旅游業(yè)策略是“高效益，低影響”，也就是在不危害自然的前提下發(fā)展旅游業(yè)。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了中國濕地保護(hù)取得巨大成效之后一些典型的濕地。
5.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，黃河濕地公園區(qū)域以前是大家避之不及的地方，而如今變成了人們散步的熱門目的地和候鳥經(jīng)常出沒的棲息地，這表明我國濕地保護(hù)取得了很大成效。
6.C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中的It is more closely tied to human activity.可知，這些濕地與別處不同的原因在于它們與人類活動關(guān)系更密切。
7.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后一句可知，這些沿海濕地的特殊之處在于它們有一處別致的風(fēng)景：海草形成的漂亮“紅色海灘”。
8.D　文章出處題。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了幾個中國獨(dú)特的濕地。由此可推測，本文可能出自報紙的旅游版塊。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。一項(xiàng)最新研究表明，蜜蜂能夠快速、準(zhǔn)確地做出決定。
9.D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中Professor Andrew Barron的話可知，蜜蜂的大腦比一粒芝麻種子還小，然而蜜蜂卻可以比我們更快、更準(zhǔn)確地做出決定。一個機(jī)器人需要在超級計(jì)算機(jī)的支持下才能完成一只蜜蜂的工作。由此可推知，他之所以提到超級計(jì)算機(jī)，是為了強(qiáng)調(diào)蜜蜂卓越的決策能力。
10.B　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段中的They need to make decisions.Which flower will have nectar （花蜜）？ While they’re flying， they face threats from the air.可推知，畫線部分所在句是對蜜蜂需要做出的決定的舉例說明，表達(dá)的意思應(yīng)為：在著陸時，蜜蜂容易受到潛在捕食者的傷害，某些捕食者會將自己偽裝成花朵。
11.C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中的If the bees were confident ...a flower had food.可知，如果蜜蜂確信一朵花會有食物或者沒有食物，那么它很快（0.6秒）就會做出決定。如果它不確定，那么做決定的時間就會更長一些（1.4秒）。由此可推知，蜜蜂是否確信食物的存在影響了它們做決定的速度。
12.A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中Professor James Marshall的話可知，人工智能研究人員能從蜜蜂和其他“簡單”動物身上學(xué)到很多東西。經(jīng)過數(shù)百萬年的進(jìn)化，這些動物具備了超級高效的大腦，而且消耗的能量非常少。由此可推知，他想傳遞的信息是：生物學(xué)能啟發(fā)未來的人工智能。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了一些關(guān)于如何使坐火車旅行盡可能愉快的建議。
13.D　根據(jù)上文可知，大多數(shù)長途火車的臥鋪很容易被訂完，所以要提前安排預(yù)訂，下文說不管什么時候旅行，至少提前90天預(yù)訂是個好主意，D項(xiàng)（在繁忙的夏季尤其如此）符合語境，說明忙碌的夏季尤其需要提前計(jì)劃。D項(xiàng)中的summer months呼應(yīng)下文中的when。
14.G　根據(jù)空后一句可知，你會節(jié)省從臥鋪到餐廳的距離。G項(xiàng)（他可能還會給你預(yù)訂餐廳旁邊的臥鋪車廂）符合語境。
15.C　根據(jù)上下文內(nèi)容可知，這里提到了車廂內(nèi)溫度的問題，提醒乘客最好自備毛毯，C項(xiàng)（列車上的溫度通常很難控制）符合語境。
16.E　上文解釋了要早點(diǎn)到達(dá)車站的原因，強(qiáng)調(diào)錯過時間是很麻煩的事情。E項(xiàng)（你可能要等上超過24小時才能趕上下一班）符合語境，說明錯過火車導(dǎo)致的后果。
17.A　根據(jù)下文可知，本段講述如何度過乘車時間，A項(xiàng)（火車旅行不適合沒有耐心的人）符合語境，與下文要計(jì)算速度，用不同的方式打發(fā)時間對應(yīng)。
Ⅲ.
　　Hello， everyone！ I’m Li Hua.Today I’m here to talk about being a responsible traveler.While traveling allows us to explore new places and experience different cultures first-hand， it is essential that we do so responsibly.
　　Being a responsible traveler starts with learning about local customs and traditions of the places we visit and showing respect for them.Dress appropriately， behave responsibly， and be mindful of local sensitivities.More importantly， as responsible travelers， we should prioritize sustainable practices， such as using public transport， choosing eco-friendly accommodations， and saving water and energy.Let’s take only memories and leave only footprints.
　　Less excuses， more action.Together， we can make a difference.
　　Thank you！

　　Bhutan is one of the world’s most mysterious countries.Visiting it
can be challenging， but there’s a new drive to finally cross it off the
bucket list in 2022， as its breathtaking Trans Bhutan Trail will be
reopening to travelers for the first time in 60 years.
　　According to the Bhutan Canada Foundation — the main donor to the
restoration project — the 250-mile route connects nine districts， 28 local
governments， one national park and 400 historic and cultural
sites.Travelers who follow the entire trail route will cross 18 major bridges
and climb 10，000 stairs.It will be possible to walk or mountain bike
there.
　　“This is a community-based project in both its building and
operation which will restore an ancient cultural treasure and provide a
sustainable， net zero carbon experience in the country for travelers，”
says Sam Blyth， chair of the Bhutan Canada Foundation.“The Trans
Bhutan Trail also reflects the country’s philosophy of Gross National
Happiness and will allow the children of Bhutan to walk in the footsteps of
their ancestors.”
　　The trail’s westernmost point is the town of Haa， which is near the
border with Xizang， China.The easternmost point is Trashigang， near
the border of India’s Arunachal Pradesh state.According to a
representative for the Bhutan Canada Foundation， an ambitious walker
could cover the whole trail in about a month， but most tourists will likely
enjoy shorter parts of the trail on three-， four-， or seven-day trips.
　　Due to its “high value， low impact” tourism strategy， Bhutan
averages just a few thousand visitors in a typical year.As part of its aim to
avoid overtourism， the country charges a mandatory （強(qiáng)制的） $250
per day fee， which includes land transport， accommodations， food and
guide service.The cost makes it somewhat prohibitive for many people to
visit.And walkers to the Trans Bhutan Trail will have to apply for a
permit.They can do this beginning in April.

本文是一篇新聞報道。文章主要講述不丹小徑的重新開
通讓人們?nèi)ド衩夭坏ぢ糜蔚膲粝虢K于成真。
1. What do we know about the Trans Bhutan Trail？（　　）
A. It connects several national parks.
B. It has been left unused for decades.
C. It has been maintained by the local governments.
D. It is more popular with mountain bikers than walkers.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的Trans Bhutan Trail will be
reopening to travelers for the first time in 60 years可知，不丹小徑在
60年后又一次向游客開放，所以它已經(jīng)有幾十年不被使用了。
2. What can we infer about the trail from Sam Blyth？（　　）
A. It allows children to reflect on themselves.
B. It provides a community experience for travelers.
C. It teaches people to learn from their ancestors.
D. It builds a connection between Bhutan and other countries.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句可知，不丹小徑也反
映了不丹的國民幸福指數(shù)的理念，它將讓不丹的孩子們追隨祖先的
腳步，所以它教會人們向他們的祖先學(xué)習(xí)。
3. What can walkers to the Trans Bhutan Trail do？（　　）
A. Choose from four types of short trips.
B. Collect ancient treasures along the way.
C. Explore Haa at the trail’s easternmost point.
D. Take a month-long trip to cover the whole trail.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的According to a
representative for the Bhutan Canada Foundation， an ambitious walker
could cover the whole trail in about a month可知，要走完整條小徑大
約需要花費(fèi)一個月的時間。
4. What is Bhutan’s tourism strategy？（　　）
A. Putting profits first.
B. Giving fines to badly-behaved visitors.
C. Developing tourism without putting nature at risk.
D. Offering tourists high-quality accommodations and food.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句可知，不丹的旅游業(yè)
策略是“高效益，低影響”，也就是在不危害自然的前提下發(fā)展旅
游業(yè)。

　　The area of the Yellow River Wetland Park in Yinchuan， capital of
Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region， was once a place local people
avoided：the waste water caused awful smells and almost no grass could
grow on the land.
　　Now， the park has become not only a popular destination for locals
to take a walk， but also a habitat frequented by migratory birds （候
鳥）.
　　As secretary general of Ningxia’s bird observation association， Li
Zhijun witnessed the huge changes at the park.According to him， the
Yinchuan wetland park， together with other wetland areas along the
Yellow River in Ningxia， has become a famous spot for bird
photographers.More habitats for migratory birds are appearing as the
environment improves， added Li in an interview with China Daily.
　　The Yinchuan wetland park mirrors China’s achievements in
wetland protection.On 10 November， seven Chinese cities were awarded
“international wetland cities” at the 14th Meeting of the Conference of
the Contracting Parties to the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands（COP
14）.So far， there are 13 wetland cities in China， showing a great
variety of patterns and styles.
　　For example， Wuhan， the capital city of Hubei Province， is
known as a “city of a hundred lakes”.The city has five large wetland
reserves， where tens of thousands of birds come to stay in wintertime，
noted the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
　　Liangping district in Chongqing， however， is totally different from
natural wetland.It is more closely tied to human activity.People built small
wetlands in rural areas.What’s more， they have combined these
wetlands with organic farms， homestays， and healthcare centers，
which has resulted in an income increase of 52，000 yuan per household.
　　Panjin in Liaoning Province is another amazing wetland city.In the
past， the city has long suffered from environmental problems caused by
oil production.But now in the coastal wetlands， seagrass turns a
breathtaking red every autumn， creating beautiful “red beaches”.
　　Chen Zhihai， a local fishery worker， said to Panjin Daily，“In
the past， there were almost no wild fish and shrimp.Thanks to the efforts
of ordinary Panjin people， now the wetland is back again！”

本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了中國濕地保護(hù)取得巨大
成效之后一些典型的濕地。
5. Why is the Yellow River Wetland Park mentioned at the beginning of
the article？（　　）
A. To compare it with other famous wetlands.
B. To show China’s achievements in wetland protection.
C. To explain why it has become a popular destination.
D. To explain the importance of wetlands to migratory birds.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，黃河濕地公園區(qū)域
以前是大家避之不及的地方，而如今變成了人們散步的熱門目的地
和候鳥經(jīng)常出沒的棲息地，這表明我國濕地保護(hù)取得了很大成效。
6. How do wetlands in Liangping differ from other wetlands with more
natural scenery？（　　）
A. Thousands of birds stay there in winter.
B. Small wetlands were built near lakes.
C. They are more closely connected to human activity.
D. They are popular destinations for people to take a walk.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中的It is more closely tied to
human activity.可知，這些濕地與別處不同的原因在于它們與人類
活動關(guān)系更密切。
7. What is special about the coastal wetlands in Panjin？（　　）
A. The water there is purple.
B. They have beautiful “red beaches”.
C. They are home to different types of shrimps.
D. They are an ideal destination for fishing.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后一句可知，這些沿海
濕地的特殊之處在于它們有一處別致的風(fēng)景：海草形成的漂亮“紅
色海灘”。
8. In which part of a newspaper will you probably find the article？
（　　）
A. Lifestyle. B. Sports.
C. Business. D. Travel.
解析：　文章出處題。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了幾個中國
獨(dú)特的濕地。由此可推測，本文可能出自報紙的旅游版塊。

　　A recent study，led by Professor Andrew Barron， Dr HaDi
MaBouDi， and Professor James Marshall， illustrates how evolution has
fine-tuned honey bees to make quick judgments while minimizing danger.
　　“Animal lives are full of decisions，” says Professor Andrew
Barron.“A honey bee has a brain smaller than a sesame （芝麻）
seed.And yet it can make decisions faster and more accurately than we
can.A robot programmed to do a bee’s job would need the backup of a
supercomputer.”
　　Bees need to work quickly and efficiently.They need to make
decisions.Which flower will have nectar （花蜜）？ While they’re
flying， they face threats from the air.While landing， they’re
vulnerable to potential predators （捕食者）， some of which use
camouflage （偽裝） to look like flowers.
　　Researchers trained 20 bees to associate each of the five different
coloured “flower disks” with their visit history of reward and
punishment.Blue flowers always had sugar juice.Green flowers always
had a type of liquid with a bitter taste for bees.Other colours sometimes
had glucose （葡萄糖）.
　　“Then we introduced each bee to a ‘garden’ with artificial
‘flowers’.We filmed each bee and timed their decision-making
process，” says Dr MaBouDi.“If the bees were confident that a flower
would have food， they quickly decided to land on it， taking an average
of 0.6 seconds.If they were confident that a flower wouldn’t have
food， they made a decision just as quickly.If unsure， they took on
average 1.4 seconds — and the time reflected the probability that a flower
had food.”
　　The team then built a computer model mirroring the bees’ decision-
making process.They found the structure of the model looked very similar
to the physical layout of a bee brain.“AI researchers can learn much from
bees and other ‘simple’ animals.Millions of years of evolution has led
to incredibly efficient brains with very low power requirements，” says
Professor James Marshall， who co-founded a company that uses insect
brain patterns to enable machines to move autonomously， like nature.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。一項(xiàng)最新研究表明，蜜蜂能夠快
速、準(zhǔn)確地做出決定。
本文是一篇說明文。一項(xiàng)最新研究表明，蜜蜂能夠快
速、準(zhǔn)確地做出決定。
9. Why does Professor Andrew Barron mention “a supercomputer”？
（　　）
A. To illustrate its similarities to a honey bee’s brain.
B. To explain how animals arrive at informed decisions.
C. To demonstrate how a robot could finish a honey bee’s job.
D. To emphasize a honey bee’s remarkable decision-making abilities.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中Professor Andrew Barron的話
可知，蜜蜂的大腦比一粒芝麻種子還小，然而蜜蜂卻可以比我們更
快、更準(zhǔn)確地做出決定。一個機(jī)器人需要在超級計(jì)算機(jī)的支持下才
能完成一只蜜蜂的工作。由此可推知，他之所以提到超級計(jì)算機(jī)，
是為了強(qiáng)調(diào)蜜蜂卓越的決策能力。
10. Which of the following can best replace “vulnerable to” underlined
in Paragraph 3？（　　）
A. deeply critical to B. easily harmed by
C. closely followed by D. highly sensitive to
解析：　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段中的They need to make
decisions.Which flower will have nectar （花蜜）？ While they’re
flying， they face threats from the air.可推知，畫線部分所在句是
對蜜蜂需要做出的決定的舉例說明，表達(dá)的意思應(yīng)為：在著陸
時，蜜蜂容易受到潛在捕食者的傷害，某些捕食者會將自己偽裝
成花朵。
11. What influenced the trained bees’ speed in making decisions？
（　　）
A. Their judgments about reward and punishment.
B. Their preference for the colours of flower disks.
C. Their confidence in the presence or absence of food.
D. Their ability to distinguish real flowers from artificial ones.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中的If the bees were
confident ...a flower had food.可知，如果蜜蜂確信一朵花會有食
物或者沒有食物，那么它很快（0.6秒）就會做出決定。如果它不
確定，那么做決定的時間就會更長一些（1.4秒）。由此可推知，
蜜蜂是否確信食物的存在影響了它們做決定的速度。
12. What message does Professor James Marshall want to give us？
（　　）
A. Biology can inspire future AI.
B. AI should be more energy-efficient.
C. The power of bee brains is underestimated.
D. Autonomous machines are changing nature.
解析：　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中Professor James Marshall
的話可知，人工智能研究人員能從蜜蜂和其他“簡單”動物身上
學(xué)到很多東西。經(jīng)過數(shù)百萬年的進(jìn)化，這些動物具備了超級高效
的大腦，而且消耗的能量非常少。由此可推知，他想傳遞的信息
是：生物學(xué)能啟發(fā)未來的人工智能。
Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
　　With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than
ever， why not book your next domestic vacation on a train？ Compared
to other alternatives， it’s comfortable and relaxing.Here is some advice
on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
　　Plan ahead.Most long-distance trains， especially the sleeping car
accommodations， sell out very quickly.13.（　　） But no matter
when you travel， it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90
days in advance.
　　Use a travel agent.Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel
agent and letting him double-check all the details， make suggestions，
and then handle the actual reservations.A good one can sometimes find
you discounted tickets.14.（　　） Then you won’t have to walk
through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
　　Bring a blanket.When you’re riding on trains， you won’t be
provided with a blanket for free， even if your trip is an overnight one.15.
（　　） In the summer in particular， the air conditioning can make
them quite cold.
　　Arrive early.Most trains operate just once a day and some run only
three times a week， so missing yours can be a disaster.16.（　　）
Note：The times listed on the schedules are departure times， not arrival
times.
　　Have fun.17.（　　） Read a book， knit， do a crossword
puzzle， or simply watch the world unfold outside the window.To
calculate your speed as you do， divide 3，600 （the number of seconds
in an hour） by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile （the
distance between two mile posts）.If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel
one mile， you’re going 67.92 mph.
A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F. Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.

旅行盡可能愉快的建議。
本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了一些關(guān)于如何使坐火車
旅行盡可能愉快的建議。
13. D　根據(jù)上文可知，大多數(shù)長途火車的臥鋪很容易被訂完，所以
要提前安排預(yù)訂，下文說不管什么時候旅行，至少提前90天預(yù)訂是個
好主意，D項(xiàng)（在繁忙的夏季尤其如此）符合語境，說明忙碌的夏季
尤其需要提前計(jì)劃。D項(xiàng)中的summer months呼應(yīng)下文中的when。
14. G　根據(jù)空后一句可知，你會節(jié)省從臥鋪到餐廳的距離。G項(xiàng)（他
可能還會給你預(yù)訂餐廳旁邊的臥鋪車廂）符合語境。
15. C　根據(jù)上下文內(nèi)容可知，這里提到了車廂內(nèi)溫度的問題，提醒
乘客最好自備毛毯，C項(xiàng)（列車上的溫度通常很難控制）符合語境。
16. E　上文解釋了要早點(diǎn)到達(dá)車站的原因，強(qiáng)調(diào)錯過時間是很麻煩的
事情。E項(xiàng)（你可能要等上超過24小時才能趕上下一班）符合語境，
說明錯過火車導(dǎo)致的后果。
17. A　根據(jù)下文可知，本段講述如何度過乘車時間，A項(xiàng)（火車旅行
不適合沒有耐心的人）符合語境，與下文要計(jì)算速度，用不同的方式
打發(fā)時間對應(yīng)。
Ⅲ.應(yīng)用文寫作
　　假定你是李華，你校將于下周舉辦一場以Be a Responsible
Traveler為主題的英語演講比賽。請你寫一篇演講稿參賽。
注意：1.寫作詞數(shù)應(yīng)為80左右；

　　Hello， everyone！ I’m Li Hua.Today I’m here to talk about
being a responsible traveler.While traveling allows us to explore new
places and experience different cultures first-hand， it is essential that
we do so responsibly.
參考范文：
　　Being a responsible traveler starts with learning about local
customs and traditions of the places we visit and showing respect for
them.Dress appropriately， behave responsibly， and be mindful of
local sensitivities.More importantly， as responsible travelers， we
should prioritize sustainable practices， such as using public
transport， choosing eco-friendly accommodations， and saving water
and energy.Let’s take only memories and leave only footprints.
　　Less excuses， more action.Together， we can make a
difference.
　　Thank you！
