21、We usually think of archaeology as involving, brave exploration and lots of tiring digging. But today, long-hidden cities are being revealed from the air, where modern archaeologists use laser beams（激光束） to spot evidence of ancient life buried beneath thick plants.
Lidar, short for “light detection and ranging”（and a cousin of radio-based radar）, involves directing a rapid series of laser pulses at the ground from an airplane. Software records the time and wavelength of the pulses reflected from the surface and combines the data with GPS to produce a three-dimensional map of the scene below. These high-tech explorations have revealed long-buried Mayan cities.
In recent years, lidar exposed an ancient city in western Mexico called Angamuco. Built by the Purepecha, who were enemies of the Aztecs, Angamuco was a major civilization in the early 16th century, before Europeans arrived. “To think that this huge city existed in the heartland of Mexico for all this time and nobody knew it was there is kind of amazing”, says Chris Fisher, an archaeologist at Colorado State University who led the team. “You are talking about 40,000 building foundations, which is about the same number of building foundations that are on the island of Manhattan,” says Fisher.
Archaeologists discovered signs of the buried city in 2017 and initially attempted to explore it using a traditional approach. But the team soon realized that with the rough road, it would take at least a decade to outline the entire city. In 2020, they began using lidar to map nearly 14 square miles, revealing an astonishing number of characteristics, from temples to road systems and garden areas. This gave them the “map” they needed to know where to explore further. So far, Fisher and his team have confirmed more than 7,000 architectural remains over a 1.5-square-mile area. All told, researchers now believe that more than 100,000 people lived in angamuco from about 1000 Ce to 1350 CE. That makes it the biggest city in western Mexico at the time.
“Everywhere you point the lidar instrument, you find new things,” says Fisher. “Right now, every textbook has to be rewritten, and two years from now, they're going to have to be rewritten again.”
【1】What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A．To show how lidar works
B．To introduce a recent finding

D．To show challenges archaeologists meet
【2】What is special about Angamuco?

B．No smoke without fire
C．Make what is good still better
D．Get twice the result with half the effort
【4】What do we know about Fisher's work?
A．It is traditional
B．It is trouble-free
C．It is a waste of time
D．It is highly productive.
22、 One way to divide up the world is between people who like to explore new possibilities and those who stick to the tried and true. In fact, the tension between betting on a sure thing and taking a chance that something unexpected and wonderful might happen troubles human and nonhuman animals alike.
Take songbirds, for example. The half-dozen finches (雀) resting at my desk feeder all summer know exactly what they'll find there: black sunflower seed, and lots of it. Meanwhile, the warblers (莺) exploring the woods nearby don't depend on this predictable food source in fine weather. As food hunters, they enjoy less exposure to predators and, as a bonus, the chance to meet the perfect mate flying from tree to tree.
This "explore-exploit" trade-off (权衡) has prompted scores of lab studies, computer simulations and algorithms (算法) trying to determine which strategy brings in the greatest reward. Now a new study of human behavior in the real world, published last month in the journal Nature Communications, shows that in good times, there isn't much of a difference between pursuing novelty and sticking to the status quo (原状) When the going gets tough, however, explorers are the winners.
The new study, led by Shay O'Farrell and James Sanchirico, both of the University of California, Davis, along with Orr Spiegel of Tel Aviv University, examined the routes and results of nearly 2,500 commercial fishing trips in the Gulf of Mexico over a period of 2.5 years. The study focused on "bottom longline" fishing, a system where hundreds of lines are attached to a horizontal bar that is then lowered to reach the sea bed. Dr. O'Farrell explained the procedure this way: Go to a location and put the line down. Stay for a few hours. The lines are a mile long and have a buoy (浮标) at either end. When they pull that up, they assess the catch, and then decide if they will stay or move on to a different spot.
Over two years of collecting data under various climate conditions, the researchers discovered that the fishermen were fairly consistent. "The exploiters would go to a smaller set of locations over and over, and go with what they know," Dr. O'Farrell said. The explorers would constantly try a wider range; they'd sample new places.
In the long run, there wasn't a huge difference in payoffs between the two groups, perhaps due to the sharing information between fishing crews, said Dr. O'Farrell. But in challenging times, the study's message was clear: "You can try new things in the face of uncertainty."
【1】The author takes the songbird as an example to indicate that _____.
A.like birds, humans tend to be satisfied with the predictable
B.some birds are used to looking for food instead of being fed
C.there exist the conservative and the adventurous like humans
D.birds choose different ways to look for food in different weather

D.will grow to be experts in lab studies
【3】Which can be inferred from the new study led by Shay O'Farrell and James Sanchirico?

B.The "explore-exploit" trade-off helps scientific research a lot.
C.The exploiters are used to fishing based solely on their experience.
D.The explorers tend to achieve more than the exploiters in the long run.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for passage?
A.How the Exploiter differs from the Explorer
B.How to Become a Productive Fisherman

23、“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said each time I faced disappointment or even depression. “If you carry on, one day, something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”
Mother was right, but I didn’t realize that until I graduated from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio and then work my way up to be a sports announcer. I hitchhiked (搭顺风车) to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station — and got turned down every time. In one studio, a kind lady told me that in most cases, big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person. “Go out in the remote areas and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,” she said. I went back home to Dixon, Illinois.
While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me.
But I wasn’t hired. My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best.” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.
As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game. The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute boost to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game!
On my way home, as I have had many times since, I thought of my mother’s words, “If you carry on, one day, something good will happen. It wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”

C. To be turned into calmness. D. To break down.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The author was given a car by his father after he failed his first-ever job interview.
B. The author’s mom always advised him to learn from his failures.

24、Whether you' re a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect for your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 【1】 No matter your age is, there are 5 ways to show respect.
●Respect their belongings.
One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things. For grown children, respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time. Lack of respect for a parent's belongings is a violation of personal boundaries. 【2】— And never borrow things without asking first.
●Punctuality .
【3】 Therefore, always be on time. For teenagers, showing up on time means coming home by curfew （宵禁）.Adult children should show up on time for family dinners or events, or to pick a parent up for a medical appointment. Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children, no matter their age is.
●【4】
Remembering birthdays, anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents. Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents don't expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated .A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect.
●Be kind.
Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect. Tell your parents you love them. Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption. Show a sincere interest in what your parents have to say. Be patient with your parents and don't rush them. Never talk back or be rude or disrespectful. Acknowledge your parents' achievements. 【5】
