21、Only 366 North Atlantic right whales are left, representing a shocking 8% decline in a single year and the lowest number in about 20 years for this famous species. Human impacts—specifically fishing nets and ship strikes —remain the biggest threats to the survival of this species in eastern Canada and the United States.
North Atlantic right whales have been in decline since 2011 when the species was at an estimated 481. In the past decade, it has decreased by 30%. Recent research shows these threats are affecting their overall health with less energy to devote toward growth and reproduction (繁殖), and body lengths reducing over the past four decades. Researchers estimate there are fewer than 100 breeding (繁育的) females alive and more than 86% of identified whales had been entangled (被网困住) at least once in their lifetime.
There is still hope: in 2021, scientists tracked 18 mother-kid pairs, a number that is cause for optimism—though still well below the annual average of 23 pairs from the previous decade.
Industry representatives, government agencies, and organizations, including WWF, gathered in October 2021 at the annual North Atlantic Right Whale Association meeting to discuss and arrange right whale conservation efforts in the US and Canada.
“It’s going to be challenging, but everyone involved in right whale conservation believes we can create an environment where right whales can bounce back,” said Chris Johnson, the global leader for WWF’s Protecting Whales and Dolphins initiative. “However, it’s going to take significant investment and the greatest urgency and commitment to create conditions where we prevent entanglements and collisions with ship in the whales’ critical habitats.”
【1】Which of the following best describes the right whale population?
A．Well conserved.
B．Slowly decreasing.
C．Rapidly growing.
D．Critically endangered.
【2】What does Chris Johnson say about the right whale conservation?
A．It needs the government to ban fishing in certain areas.
B．It will not work without fund from the government.
C．It can help increase the number of right whales.
D．It is not practical and will fail eventually.
【3】What can we learn about the female right whales?
A．Most of them have been once entangled.
B．Mother whales may have slightly decreased.
C．There are less female right whales than male right whales.
D．Their population has decreased to 70% of that a decade ago.
【4】What can be inferred about the right whale species?
A．Their size has been decreasing due to human impact.
B．They may have found home in other parts of the ocean.
C．They were hunted by people for their meant in the past.
D．They are well on the way to dying out if not well protected.
22、Immersive Art Draws People In
With bold, swirling brushstrokes and vivid colors, Vincent van Gogh's stirring Starry Night brings to life a turbulent sky. It's one of the most recognizable paintings in the world. And gazing at the scenic canvas can make museum visitors feel starstruck.
【1】 In fact, some exhibits give people a chance to be enveloped by van Gogh's celebrated painting. They find themselves surrounded by shimmering colors that dance before their eyes and ripple at their feet. These exhibitions digitally project moving images onto walls, floors, and sometimes onto viewers themselves. They are examples of immersive art.
Immersive art doesn't sit in a glass case or fit in a frame. 【2】 These exhibitions have been wildly popular, selling out tickets in cities worldwide.
Van Gogh gained fame only after his death. In fact, the 19th-century painter sold just one painting during his lifetime. But now he is immersive art's biggest superstar. His work has been showcased in various exhibitions featuring immense images. 【3】 One show, Van Gogh Alive, has appeared in 65 countries since 2011. It even features a signature scent for visitors to sniff.Shows of other artists — including Monet, Renoir, and Chagall — have lit up venues, too.
The popularity of immersive art has been powered partly by social media. As visitors post selfies featuring van Gogh's art or videos of friends stepping into a fantastical fridge, these experiences draw bigger and bigger crowds. 【4】 That's because many curators and creators share a common goal — to help more people get into art!
A．Meanwhile, traditional museums are following the trend and applying immersive technologies.
B．Not all immersive art is based on paintings.
C．But seeing this masterpiece on a gallery wall isn't the only way art fans can experience its impact.
D．The interactive indoor downpour looked like magic, but it all came down to science.
E．It is generally an interactive event that lets viewers feel they are in the artwork.
F．The artwork is animated and accompanied by music, voices, and background sound.
23、Do you have memories of being kidnapped (绑架)by aliens (外星人) and taken away rapidly in a spaceship? You wouldn’t be alone. Several thousand people worldwide reported to have had such experiences, researchers say. But in a new study, a psychology expert at London’s Goldsmiths College says these experiences are proof of the weakness of the human memory, rather than evidence of life in outer space.
“Maybe what we’re dealing with here is false memories, and not that people are actually being kidnapped and taken aboard spaceships,” says Professor Chris French, who surveyed 19 so-called victims.
Several of the victims reported being taken away from their beds or cars by alien creatures around four feet high, with long and lean arms and legs and oversized heads, French said. Some men said they were forced to take painful medical examinations by the aliens.
Many of the alien experiences could be explained by sleep paralysis, a condition in which a person is awake and aware of the surroundings but is unable to move. Sleep paralysis often leads to hallucinations —the experience of seeing or feeling something that is not really there and 40 percent of people experience the state at least once in their lives, French said. A rich imagination was also at play. Several of the alien victims were more likely to fantasize and reported to have seen ghosts (幽灵) and have unnatural abilities.
“People have very rich fantasy lives,” said French, who is due to present his findings at a public seminar at London’s Science Museum on Wednesday. “So much that they often mix up what’s happening in their heads with what is going on in the real world.”
【1】According to Chris French, if someone told you an alien experience again, you might _____.
A. believe the story B. just laugh it away
C. wonder why D. report it to the police
【2】The underlined word “fantasize” in Paragraph 4 probably means _____.
A. use vivid imagination B. tell the truth
C. have good memories D. make up excuses
【3】What is the author’s attitude towards alien experiences?
A. Puzzling. B. Supportive.
C. Respectful. D. Objective.
【4】Where can this passage probably be found?
A. A science magazine. B. A textbook.
C. A science fiction. D. A storybook.
24、 By the year 2050, a fifth of the world’s cities will experience unprecedented climate conditions and environments that currently don't exist in any major cities, according to new research. A team of scientists at the Crowther Lab in Switzerl produced the report, which described the climate for 520 major cities 30 years in the future.
The results showed that 77 percent of the world’s cities will experience a surprising change in climate conditions by 2050, and 22 percent of the 520 cities will see conditions that are not currently experienced by any existing major cities.
In China in 2050, the climate of Xi’an, in Shanxi province, will be similar to that of current day Maseru, the capital city of Lesotho in southern Africa, with the maximum temperature of the warmest month likely to increase by 4.5 C. Chongqing in southwest China will resemble the climate of Swaziland capital Mbabane, as the warmest temperature is predicted to rise by 5.1 C.
Scientists predict summers in Europe will get warmer by an average of 3.5 C and European winters will see temperature rises of 4.7 C. London's climate will be more similar to Barcelona, and Madrid’s to Marrakech.
The Crowther Lab hopes the analysis will motivate decision-makers to take necessary steps to prevent or address some of the climate impacts due to the threat of climate change. The report also found that cities in tropical regions will experience smaller changes in average temperature but will be controlled by shifts in rainfall regimes. This may lead to a noticeable increase in unexpected events, and severe droughts.
“Across all scientific fields, the greatest challenge in climate science is no longer the precise measurement of climate change impacts, but inspiring people to picture its actual effects in order to motivate action,” said Tom Crowther, senior scientist and founder of the Crowther Lab.
【1】The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means .
A.New B.Similar C.Familiar D.Important
【2】How did the scientists prove their result?
A.By comparison. B.By theory.
C.By experiment. D.By number.
【3】What is the purpose of the lab?
A.To compare the climate change of the major cities of the world.
B.To inspire people to picture its actual effects in order to motivate action.
C.To inspire decision-makers to take necessary steps to prevent some of the climate impacts.
D.To show that 77 percent of the world's cities will experience a striking change in climate conditions.
【4】What is the best title of the passage?
A.World Temperature B.Current Climate Change
C.Big Titles in the World D.Future Climate Change in Most Big Cities

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mei Mei frowned (皱眉) as she helped her mother and father set out the cooking supplies in the shiny steel kitchen. Her family had just moved here from San Francisco, having bought a small restaurant, which was set to open in the next few days.
“Moving here was a stupid idea. I have lost all my friends in San Francisco. What should I do now?” Mei Mei grumbled(抱怨), mostly to herself.
“What’s that?” Her mother asked, opening a box and lifting out several pots and a wok(炒锅).
“Nothing.” Mei Mei said. The girl had been complaining about the move, but her parents had made the decision and were now too busy getting ready for the grand opening to listen to her complaints.
The first few days at her new school hadn't been easy, either. She found it hard to talk to people she didn’t know, and it seemed like the students hadn’t even noticed her. Mei Mei sighed and got back to washing dishes.
On the day of the grand opening, Mei Mei’s parents were all smiles, welcoming customers into the restaurant, brightly decorated in gold and red. Even Mei Mei was in a good mood as she rushed around, seating guests, handing out menus, and pouring tall glasses of water. This was a big day for her family.
At one of the tables sat a family with two daughters who were about Mei Mei’s age. As she filled their glasses, Mei Mei realized the twins were in her class. Mei Mei lowered her head so her long hair covered her face, and she turned away from the table.
Mei Mei’s mother found her soon after, in the kitchen loading the dishwasher.
“Honey, what are you doing back here? We need you out front with the customers.”
Paragraph 1:
“Mom. I don’t want to be out there!”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Mei Mei put a handful of cookies into a small plate and left the kitchen.
