21、Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war? War is an ancient custom which has existed for at least six thousand years. It was always evil and usually foolish, but in the past the human race managed to live with it. Modern skill has changed this. Either man will stop war, or war will stop man. For the present, it is nuclear weapons that cause the greatest danger, but bacteriological( 细菌的 ) or chemical weapons may, before long, offer an even greater threat. If we succeeded in stopping war, there would be no danger for us. To do this, we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way, not by contests of force, in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in massacre (大屠杀 ),but by judging in accordance with agreed rules of law. It is not easy to change old mental habits, but this is what must be attempted.

There are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology (意识形态)would prevent war. I believe this to be a complete error. All ideologies are based upon beliefs without proof which are, at best, doubtful, and at worst, totally false. Those people who believe them are willing to go to war in support of them.

The movement of world opinion during the past two years has changed very largely such as we can welcome. It has become a common belief that nuclear war must be avoided. Of course, very difficult problems remain in the international world, but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago. It has begun to be thought, even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die, that agreements should be reached even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory. It has begun to be understood that the important conflict nowadays is not between East and West, but between Man and the bomb.

【1】From the first paragraph we can know that __ __.

A．dangerous weapons are forbidden in modern society

B．we may face greater threat from weapons

C．man’s idea of victory has changed

D．dangerous weapons can stop war

【2】From the passage we can know ______.

A．it is impossible to live without war

B．war will be stopped by modern skill

C．war must be stopped if man wants to survive

D．the difference between East and West will cause war

【3】The author believes that the only way to stop war is to____.

A．take possession of stronger weapons

B．let the stronger side take over the world

C．settle international issues through agreements

D．destroy bacteriological and chemical weapons

【4】Which of the following words can best describe the author’s feeling in writing this passage?

A．Disappointed. B．Doubtful. C．Worried. D．Hopeful.

22、   If you’re looking for someone to make a realistic, three-dimensional (3D) portrait of your pet cat using felted wool, you’ll have a tough time finding someone better than Wakuneco, a Japanese artist who started creating needle felt art back in 2015. Using different colored wool, this artist creates life-like cat portraits. Just have a look at what she can do with a needle and wool thread.

Looking at some of the cat portraits created by the talented Japanese artist, it’s hard to believe they are made of felted wool and not taxidermy (动物标本剥制术) masterpieces. To achieve this level of realism, which translates as “frame cat”, Wakuneco spends hours on end poking wool with a needle to create solid layers that imitate cat fur, applying realistic glass eyes and finally adding the whiskers. After everything is just as she wants, the 3D portrait is framed and sent to the owner who ordered it.

Losing a beloved pet is never easy, but Wakuneco’s realistic cat portraits — made using photographs of real cats as a reference — help owners deal with their loss. And while not all of her customers are owners looking for something special to remember their pets, many of her portraits are ordered as a means of copying.

Wakuneco currently offers her amazing wool felting skills through Yahoo Auctions, but only to Japanese customers. However, after photos of her amazingly detailed portraits spread quickly online, she did express her intention to start taking international orders in the near future. In the meantime, you can admire her amazing creations on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, and watch videos of the creative process on YouTube.

For more amazing felted wool artworks, check out the creations of Gardenia Miru and Terumi Ohta, two other very talented Japanese artists, as well as the felted wool animal portraits of Dani Ives.

【1】What does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?

A．No one can do better than Wakuneco.

B．Wakuneco is too busy to be visited or invited.

C．It’s hard for you to get along well with Wakuneco.

D．You’ll find many other skillful persons like Wakuneco.

【2】What do we know about the 3D cat portraits?

A．They’re widely considered as taxidermy masterpieces.

B．Their eyes are made of felted wool in most cases.

C．They’re made by modeling the pictures of authentic cats.

D．Their fur is taken from animals no longer alive.

【3】What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?

A．Dani Ives’s wool animal portraits are gaining in popularity.

B．Only the Japanese can buy Wakuneco’s artworks for the time being.

C．Wakuneco decided to show her creative process on Twitter.

D．Wakuneco is unsure about selling her artworks internationally.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．3D Technology Used in Art.

B．Four Talented Japanese Artists.

C．Needle Felting: An Art in Danger.

D．Wakuneco’s Realistic 3D Cat Portraits.

23、“Based on long-term earthquake records dating back to nearly 1900, the expected annual occurrence of significant comprises roughly 16 events. The 2023 Hatay earthquakes were among the most severe in recent history.” a researcher Ozer said in 2023.

The Hatay region of Turkey is located at the boundary between the Anatolian and Arabian plates. This region experienced a severe earthquake on February 6th, 2023, impacting various aspects of its buildings and cultural heritage. Over 50,000 people died, and the cost was more 104 billion dollars.

Following the significant destruction, a study conducted by Nizar Polat published in Springer Nature in 2023 examines the deformation (变形) of the Earth’s surface in several cities in the Hatay region. The study not only employs Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) (无人机) to get high-resolution 3D modeling (高分辨率的三维建模), but also uses aerial imagery (航空图像) to analyze surface deformations and cracks in the bedrock. Results show 7 cracks ranging from 24.11 to 497.69 m in length.

Besides, analysis within the subsidence (沉降区) area is also used to reveal the extent of physical deformations. Two subsidence areas are identified, measuring 23,060.8m2 and 13,954.2m2 respectively, with height changes of up to 20m. The accuracy of the photos are proved with a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) (均方根误差) of 4.6cm, indicating high accuracy.

This study reveals the value of drone-based high-resolution 3D modeling in revealing the earthquake-caused deformation and landscape changes. These findings have greatly improved the understanding of earthquake destructions in the Hatay area and provided more insights to future research and reduce natural disasters.

【1】Why does the author mention the Ozer’s words?

A．To introduce the background of the study.

B．To develop people’s awareness of disasters.

C．To call on people to care the environment.

D．To analyze how strong the earthquake is.

【2】Which method is not used in this study?

A．Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

B． Root Mean Square Error

C．Aerial Imagery

D．Analysis within the subsidence

【3】What’s the author’s attitude about this study?

A．Indifferent.

B．Positive.

C．Pessimistic.

D．Concerned.

【4】What is the text probably about?

A．An introduction to UAVs.

B．An essay on the natural disaster.

C．A guidebook to Hatay region.

D．A review of Turkey geography.
