Swapping Corner.D. Snack and Refreshment Station.B Parrots are prey animals, which means that other pre
9、dators(捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks or snakes, are looking to make them into a meal. This factor influences parrots behavior in your house more than any other. Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground. Membership in a group plays an important function in insuring their safety and i
10、mproving their chances of survival from attacks by predators. The most common predators of parrots include hawks, snakes, cats, monkeys, and bats. Some predators make attacks only during the day while others hunt in the night. As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they
11、instinctively (本能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight. However, if this is not possible, they will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves. Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind. For this reas
12、on, it is wise to avoid quick, sudden movements near your bird. This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason. Simple and relatively harmlesshousehold objects can draw extreme fear responses froma bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same
13、 as a snake in your birds mind. As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diets and to
14、ys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to change.24. What is important for parrots to better survive from attacks in the wild?A.

To introduce a study on bird ecology.C For all of human history, eating meat has meant killing animals. But scientists behind lab-grown me
17、at say thats no longer necessary. They produce meat by growing cells obtained from an animals body. Lab-grown meat, also called“cell-cultivated” or“cultured” meat, is made by feeding a mix of nutrients to animal cells in steel tanks in labs. The idea is to create an alternative to agriculturally rai
18、sed meat. And unlike other meat substitutes which are made from plant proteins and other ingredients, lab-grown meat is real meat. When ready, the meat is formed into shapes such as sausages or nuggets (块), and looks, smells and tastes like any other grocery store version. Recently, the U. S. Depart
19、ment of Agriculture(USDA) has given two companies approval to sell lab- grown chicken. The approval launches a new era of meat production aimed at eliminating harm to animals, and reducing the environmental impacts of grazing (牧场) animals and growing feed for animals. Scientists warn that the typica
20、l way meat is produced now, in Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, is a risk factor for the emergence of diseases. Lab-grown meat is more sustainable and can be produced without antibiotics, and without producing greenhouse gas emissions linked to animal agriculture.“Everything we know about how
21、 meat can be made is going to change. But dont expect to see cultivated meat in grocery stores just yet,” said Uma Valeti, CEO of UPSIDE Foods. Lab-grown chicken is much more expensive, because it cannot yet be produced on the scale of traditional meat.“To make cultivated meat, energy needs are high
22、,” said Bruce Friedrich, president and founder of the Good Food Institute, a non-profit group that promotes alternative proteins. However, the disadvantage of high energy needs will be offset by the reduction in land and water use and other benefits. If cultured meat is produced on a large scale, it
23、 could also offer a solution to feeding the worlds growing population.28. What do we know about lab-grown meat?A. It is abundant in plant proteins.B. It can be bought in grocery stores.C. It is generated from animals cells.D. It tastes more delicious than traditional meat.29. What is the potential b
24、enefit of lab-grown meat?A. Higher safety for eating.B. Lower costs for restaurants.C. Improvements in traditional agriculture.D. Positive impacts on climate change and animals.30. What problem does the author mention in paragraph 4?A. It is hard to produce lab-grown meat in quantity.B. The USDA doe
25、snt approve the sale of lab-grown meat.C. Many people raise doubts about the safety of lab- grown meat.D. Lab-grown meat can disturb competition in the meat industry.31. What does the underlined word“offset” in the last paragraph mean?A. Balanced. B. Satisfied.C. Increased. D. Exchanged.D Although f
26、onts (字体) are ignored by most of us, they are vital to make texts readable and appealing to audiences. Beyond the visual aspect, research shows that fonts play a significant role in the learning processes while we read. A fonts impact on the way you learn and keep information might be hard to notice
27、 consciously (有意识地), but your brain is certainly tuned in. Perhaps surprisingly, hard-to-read fonts such as Bodoni, Comic Sans or Monotype Corsiva are better for keeping information than fonts like Arial or Times New Roman, according to some studies. Participants recalled more information from the m
28、aterial they read when it was presented in a font that was difficult to read, according to a 2010 study.“Difficulty can function as an alarm signal, giving the reader a sense that the task is challenging and will require mental effort,” says Daniel Oppenheimer, a professor of psychology at Carnegie
29、Mellon University and one of the 2010 study authors. Hard-to-read fonts, which make it harder to read the material but dont actually distract the reader, therefore generate“desirable difficulty ” and the resulting learning burdens (负担) may improve performance because they require more mental effort.
30、 Font characteristics such as style, size and color play a role in keeping or recalling information, because font design is vital to our familiarity or unfamiliarity with a given word, says Stephen Banham, a font lecturer at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. Experiments done at RMIT Universit
31、y have demonstrated a U-shape relationship between font size and memory: Large-font items may predict higher recall regardless of style, but very small font sizes can also introduce a desirable difficulty.A documents specific method of formatting information also makes an impact. Using font styles l
32、ike bold or italics to indicate significance can also improve information recall. Thats because people are better able to remember information they consider important, says Oppenheimer. Researchers found that bolded text has a higher recall than text in italic or regular styles, regardless of the fo
33、nt size. However, if an entire document is bolded, the emphasis is lost, and readers can no longer spot vital passages.32. Which of the following fonts is least difficult to read?A. Arial. B. Bodoni.C. Comic Sans. D. Monotype Corsiva.33. Why do hard-to-read fonts improve performance according to Opp
34、enheimer?A. They relieve us of our learning burdens.B. They get our brain ready for the challenge.C. They help us develop an active learning habit.D. They force us to turn to texts of desirable difficulty.34. What have the RMIT University experiments shown?A. Small-font items are more easily ignored
35、.B. Familiar words help us recall information.C. A U-shape font enables us to focus on thematerial.D. Large-font text stays in the memory for a long time.35. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. Unique document layout makes a difference.B. The effect of a font style varies between readers.
36、C. Italic text has the highest recall rate among all font styles.D. Applying one style to the whole document will confuse readers.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Summarizing, or writing a summary, means givinga brief overview of a texts main points in your own wo
37、rds. For example, when you re writing an academic text like an essay, a research paper, or a dissertation (学位论文), you ll integrate sources in a variety of ways._36_ But its often appropriate to sum up a whole article or chapter if it is especially relevant to your own research.

38、ps that can help you to do it. Step 1: Read the text. You should read the article more than once to make sure you ve thoroughly understood it.

39、in to confirm you ve understood the key points, and reread any particularly important or difficult passages. Step 2: Break the text down into sections._38_ If the text is a scientific paper, it is probably already organized into clearly marked sections, usually including an introduction, methods, re
40、sults, and discussions. But most articles and essays will be structured around a series of sub-points or themes. Step 3: Identify the key points in each section. Now its time to go through each section and pick out its most important points. Keep in mind that a summary does not involve paraphrasing
41、( 解 释 ) every single paragraph of the article. _39_ Step 4: Write the summary. Now that you know the key points that the article aims to communicate, you need to put them in your own words. To avoid plagiarism (抄袭) and show you ve understood the article, its essential to properly paraphrase the auth

45、sert in Oregon. His trip was_41_ with the usual difficulties. He lost his shoes and was only relying on a pair of sandals (凉鞋). His water supply was sometimes _42_ . But there were also moments of unexpected _43_: A couple offered to share their lunch; a guy in the truck asked if he needed any help.
46、 On the last day of his trip, he was riding down a dusty track when he met a man lying unconscious in the desert._44_ , he was dehydrated (脱水的). Quinones tried to give him some water with little _45_ . Luckily, he called the emergency rescue team and an ambulance soon arrived. The man he _46_ was an
47、 explorer who had been lost in the desert for 5 days. “I never had any _47_ about whatI would do,” said Quinones. He had received some gestures of help on the trip, so he _48_ . Its likely that if you ve spent any time in the wild, you ll have _49_ these gestures of kindness from strangers or given
48、them yourself too even if they are nothing so _50_ as the aid given by Quinones. What is it about being outside in nature that makes people want to help others? One opinion is that in the wild, there may not be any other _51_ , so according to the“bystander effect”, the more people who are in the presence of someone needing help, the less likely any of those are to actually provide it. Another opinion is that exposure to nature can make people look beyond themselves, _52_
