22、Every 40 days a language dies. This “catastrophic” loss is being intensified by the climate crisis; according to linguists. If nothing is done, conservative estimates suggest that half of all the 7000 languages currently spoken will be extinct by the end of the century.
Speakers of minority languages have experienced a long history of persecution (迫害) , with the result that by the 1920s half of all indigenous (土著的) languages in Australia, the US, South Africa and Argentina were extinct. The climate crisis is now considered the “final nail in the coffin” for many indigenous languages and the knowledge they represent.
“Languages are already endangered,” says Anastasia Richl, director of the Strathy language unit at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. Huge factors are globalization and migration, as communities move to regions where their language is not spoken or valued, according to Richl. “It seems particularly cruel,” she says, “that most of the world’s languages are in parts of the world that are growing unpleasant to people.” Vanuatu, a South Pacific island nation measuring 12,189km2, has 110 languages, the highest density (密度) of languages on the planet. It is also one of the countries most at risk of sea level rise, she says. “Many small language communities are on islands and coastlines easily subject to hurricanes and sea level rise.” Others live on lands where rising temperature threatens traditional farming and fishing practices, leading to migration.
In response to the crisis, the UN launched the International Decade of Indigenous Languages in 2022. Promoting and conserving languages of indigenous communities is “not only important for them, but for all humanity”, said Csaba Korosi, the UN general assembly president, urging countries to allow access to education in indigenous languages.
【1】What is the writer mainly concerned about?
A．The disappearance of languages.
B．The challenge of climate change.
C．The reaction to the language crisis.
D．The trend of the speedy globalization.
【2】Why is Vanuatu mentioned in paragraph 3?
A．To explain the main reason for language density.
B．To show the common features of endangered languages.
C．To stress the impact of geographical position on migration.
D．To illustrate the situation of minority language communities.
【3】What does the International Decade of Indigenous Languages aim to do?
A．Support migrants to access local education.
B．Discourage people from massive migration.
C．Improve the living conditions of minority groups.
D．Preserve the languages of indigenous communities.
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．Faced with Disasters: Communities Have to Leave
B．Lost for Words: Rising Seas Bring Threat of Catastrophe
C．Upset at Extinction: UN Urges International Cooperation
D．Involved in Action: Experts Seek Solutions to Climate Crisis
23、It's a classroom; but instead of being told to sit quietly and listen, you are encouraged to stand up, jump around, imagine and act out it's a class full of laughter and applause(掌声), emotion and energy. Welcome to drama class, one of my favorite classes at high school.
In drama class we used to play a lot of“ drama games. We would improvise(即兴表演), mime(模仿) and above all use our imaginations.
My favorite game was called "Spotto". One person stood at the front of the class and performed a scene, completely out of their imagination. When one audience member yelled "Spotto!", the performer had to freeze. Then the person who had yelled Spotto had to get up and improvise a new scenario (剧情)based on the position the first performer froze in. This went on as more and more people were added to the scene.
Eventually the entire class would have joined the scene. Then the performers would start to leave in reverse(颠倒的)order. The first performer had to have a good memory to remember all the other scenes.
It was a lot of fun, and a good test of everyone's imagination to see what they would come up with.
Drama class at my school often involved a big performance at the end of the semester as well. We would work on a production throughout the semester and put on a show for our parents and the school community.
It was a great experience to perform on stage in front of a large audience. Drama class can help shy children to come out of their shells. It helped me become more confident and developed my public speaking skills. Drama class is also a great place to express yourself, and a way for children to use up some of their energy.
【1】Which of the following statements is TRUE about the game "Spotto" as described in the article?
A. "Spotto" is designed to help drama students lean from one another’s performance.
B. A performer has to think of a story completely unrelated to that of the performer before him or her.
C. Each performer in a "Spotto" game has to retell the story of the performer directly after him or her.
D. Every student gets the chance to make a contribution to the "Spotto" game.
【2】The underlined word "freeze" in Paragraph 3 probably means_______.
A. stop
B. quit
C. change
D. wait
【3】We can infer from the article that the author______.
A. Doesn't like to sit quietly in class
B. never performed well in the drama games
C. used to be quite a shy student
D. used to shine in performances

24、When people hear the news that David Bennett, recipient of the world’s first pig heart transplant, died on March 9, they might believe that the transplant was at fault. But in fact his transplant surgery represents a great step forward in medical history toward xenotransplantation (异种器官移植) success.
His death came just two months after the operation Jan 7. He was ineligible (不合格的) for the heart transplant list and xenotransplantation was, his only option. The fact that he was able to get two more months of life with the surgery proves its success.
Xenotransplantation has been a hot topic in medical research for decades, as doctors and scientists look for ways to solve the transplant waiting list crisis. In the US alone over-100,000 patients are on the transplant list waiting for new organs. Many of them will die before getting their chance to receive a heart or lung or kidney. Therefore, medical science has looked to animal organs as a viable (可行的) alternative.
Doctors have experimented with xenotransplantation since the early 20th century but it has not been widely successful for two main reasons. First, it is incredibly difficult for even human-to-human transplants to be successful due to organ rejection. It is much harder with animal organs. Second, xenotransplantation has been highly restricted due to feat of virus transmissions from primates or pigs. In the late 1990s, some countries placed strict guidelines or outright bans on the use of animal tissue and organs for people.
Aside from Bennett’s gene-edited pig heart, late last year doctors New York University achieved some success in attaching pig kidneys to human blood vessels outside the body in patients on life support. Meanwhile, at the University of Alabama, doctors managed to actually implant (移植) gene-edited pig kidneys into a patient on life support.
Though these recent successes have been short-lived, they show that there may be a way to help more people with gene-edited organs from pigs.
【1】What do we know about the surgery?
A．It was one of the best choices for the patient.
B．It stands for the advances made in xenotransplantation.
C．It was the first successful xenotransplantation in history.
D．Without it, the patient would have lived two months longer.
【2】Why do scientists experiment with xenotransplantation?
A．To help patients recover from organ failure.
B．To find a practical alternative to human organs.
C．To make animal organs more useful to humans.
D．To ease the shortage of human organs for transplant.
【3】What may be the main concern about xenotransplantation?
A．The risk of spreading diseases.
B．The problem of public rejection.
C．The effects on other organs and tissues.
D．The damage to patients’ immune systems.
【4】What’s the author’s attitude toward the prospect of using pig organs for transplants?
A．Positive.
B．Worried.
C．Doubtful.
D．Uncertain.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的短文。
Almost all the possessions had been sold to buy food and clothing for the family. At last, nothing was left but the pet lamb, Daisy. At the thought of parting with the little creature, Mrs. Grant’s felt sad because the children loved it very much. Having struggled hard, she had to make up her mind to sell the lamb. But she could not ask any child to go for the butcher. Finally, she went herself with a heavy heart, dragging her leaden feet, and bargained with the butcher for the sale of Daisy.
While the children were all playing with the lamb, the butcher and his boy came to the door. “ You see I am here for the lamb, ” said the butcher in a loud voice. Hearing this, one child ran to her mother’s side, and asked what was happening in alarm. Mrs. Grant gently pushed the child aside, bent down and was about to tell the truth.
“That’s my lamb now, Charlie! ” said the butcher’s boy in a playful tone, going up to Daisy with a rope in his hand.
“No, it is not your lamb. It is ours! ” said Charlie, placing himself in front of it.
But the boy, pushing him aside, threw a rope round Daisy’s neck, and began to drag the little creature away. The poor lamb bleated (咩咩叫) very sadly. The cry of grief which fell upon the mother’s ears was too much for her, and her heart sank within her. In a moment, begging with tearful eyes, the children were all around their mother with voices choking with sobs for their little pet.
“Please tell your boy to stop a moment, ” she said in husky tones to the butcher. The boy, at a word from the butcher, stopped dragging the lamb, and the little creature stopped its bleating.
In a trembling voice, Mrs. Grant explained to them how badly off they were after their father died. She also added that the kind butcher had given the money for Daisy. With this money, she could buy her children bread to eat.
