26、 The Sabi Sand Game Reserve in South Africa is one of the richest wildlife regions in the African continent. Over 200 species of mammals and 350 different birds can be found in its vast plains, grasslands and forests.
I spoke to Michael Rattray, chairman of the Sabi Sand management committee, about the management policies. “If in a thousand years' time the reserve is still a wonderful habitat for wildlife, then we will have succeeded in our mission. Various measures are being put in place. These include dealing with the problem of erosion (侵蚀). In 1996 we had abnormally high rainfall. This could have been absolutely destructive. However, we have successfully fought erosion using gabion stretchers, which are wire baskets filled with rocks. We have also used a lot of old aerial photographs, which have helped us return the land to its earlier state. This meant recreating open grassland areas to attract different types of animals,”he said.
Apart from these measures, the reserve employs a wide range of local workers. Building staff accommodation of any sort would make a big impact on the environment and would go against the aim of keeping the reserve as natural as possible. Instead, transport is provided so employees can live a normal life with their families outside the area, and the human impact is kept to a minimum.
Visitors to the reserve spend about six hours a day in open vehicles, observing wildlife on game drives. They are accompanied by a ranger and a local tracker. I shall never forget the moment on a game drive when a cheetah with her five cubs was pointed out to me. She was lying in a sea of long yellow grass, her markings almost invisible. We got close enough to hear her purr.
The Sabi Sand Game Reserve is a place where animals have no fear of humans. It is impossible to quantify the benefits of spending time in such an environment.
【1】What helped solve the problem of erosion?
A.High rainfall. B.Gabion stretchers.
C.Empty baskets. D.Aerial photographs.
【2】What can we know about visitors to the reserve?
A.They can walk to the open fields.
B.They must have very good eyesight.
C.They cannot go around the reserve alone.
D.They have two ways to enter the reserve.
【3】What would be the best title for the text? .
A.An introduction to the Sabi Sand Game Reserve.
B.The importance of protecting wildlife.
C.Some advice on visiting the Sabi Sand Game Reserve.
D.The Sabi Sand Game Reserve—the biggest wildlife region.
27、Do you know the websites that let you name a star after your beloved one, your kid or your dog for a small fee? Yeah, those are all fake— you could pay me to “name” a star for $50, and I’ll take your money and show the name online. I’ll even send you a fancy certificate! It seems that you’ve named a star, but it just doesn’t count.
Actually, the only organization that owns official naming rights is the International Astronomical Union, or the IAU. It was founded in 1919 and based in Paris, France. It is where astronomers and other professionals have reached the agreements and is the official record-keeping body for all discoveries in space.
Recently they do open up an opportunity for the public to name a dozen of planets outside the solar system. These planets will be among the first to be studied with the James Webb Space Telescope. However, they currently only have boring and complicated documents that were used to find them. That’s why the IAU is looking for something more interesting.
But before you start naming the planets, you should know the rules. First, nothing is rude or annoying. Second, the name should be less than 16 characters long and pronounceable in at least one language with no commercial or business names and nothing is named after a living individual or a pet.
The competition, named “Stars Worlds”, is open next Thursday, January 20th. It’s the third such contest the IAU has held, and the purpose is to get the public more interested in science as well as the organization. The competition also helps to break centuries of European dominance when it comes to naming things in the night sky. So people around the world can share the joy of discovery and make their mark in history.
【1】How does the author introduce the topic of the passage?
A．By listing figures.
B．By taking an example.
C．By offering a solution.
D．By showing differences.
【2】What can we know about the IAU from the passage?
A．It was founded by France.
B．It studies the space telescope.
C．It organizes trips to the space.
D．It has the right to name the stars.
【3】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Why the competition is held.
B．How the competition develops.
C．What to expect in the competition.
D．How to take part in the competition.
【4】Where is this passage most likely taken from?
A．A novel.
B．A textbook.
C．A diary.
D．A magazine.
28、It was in 2019, when I first arrived at Donghua University in Shanghai, that I discovered a local park filled with elderly people dancing in the early morning. It quickly became my favorite spot. I’d bring my coffee, and relax while watching them enjoy the rhythm of the music. Occasionally, I’d also join them. There, no one judges you for a misstep or for not keeping up with the rhythm. You simply enjoy the moment. It’s fascinating to see experienced dancers leading, while newcomers observe, learn, and eventually join in, just like me.
However, I’m not exactly new when it comes to dancing. My love for dance began at a very young age in my hometown, Uzbekistan. My mother would fondly recall how, as a child, I’d effortlessly move to the rhythm of music. At around 3 or 4, I gave my first performance just a week after being sent to learn in a dancing studio. The large stage and the vast audience made me nervous, but it was a defining moment that light my passion for dancing. Throughout my school years and later in college, I actively participated in various performances, exploring a wide range of dances, including traditional Uzbek dances and various other cultural dances.
When I first arrived in China, I had the privilege of showing the traditional Uzbek dance at a cultural event, introducing my culture to others. Later, at Donghua University, we established a dance club where students from around the world taught various dance styles. There I learned new dance forms and participated in university events.
However, outside of campus, I often found myself wandering into the park, watching people dancing or even dancing along on the square. The dance transcends age and background, offering an antidote to the loneliness and physical inactivity that often accompanies aging.
These two worlds — the vibrant public dancing in China and the rich Uzbek dance tradition — have profoundly shaped my life and brought me boundless joy.
【1】Where did the author first see the square dance in China?
A．In Donghua University.
B．In a local park in Shanghai.
C．In a dancing club.
D．In a grand performance.
【2】What was mentioned about the author’s mother?
A．She has been experienced in performances.
B．She felt uneasy when the author got on the stage.
C．She always recalls the typical moves of their dance.
D．She sent her daughter to learn dancing at a young age.
【3】What can be learned about the author’s dance journey in China?
A．She takes every opportunity to enjoy dance.
B．She has simply danced her traditional dance.
C．The dance club teaches her the square dance.
D．The square dance enables her to regain the skills.
【4】What might be talked about in the following part?
A．Her memory of her dancing journey.
B．Her determination to teach the Uzbek dance.
C．The joy brought by different dancing experiences.
D．The different styles of the traditional Uzbek dance.
29、 Some people ski down mountains. Others climb huge rocks or photograph dangerous animals. Why do people enjoy risky activities like these?
Some people take risks simply because it makes them feel good. Psychologist(心理学家)Marvin says that this kind of explorer(探险者)is always looking for change and excitement. When people do something new or risky, a chemical in the brain creates a pleasant feeling. They love this feeling and want to experience it as often as possible.
Other people don't take risks for the feeling of excitement but to achieve a goal. For example, Mike Fay went on a dangerous 2, 000-mile special journey in central Africa. He worked to help save the wildlife there. Fay's expeditions helped create 13 national parks.
For other people, such as extreme athletes(极限运动员)，taking risks is part of their job. Sports psychologist Shane says extreme athletes see the world differently. In a dangerous activity, most people probably do not feel in control. Extreme athletes are different: they feel in control in dangerous situations. The danger can even help them. For example, skier Daron Rahlves says that being afraid makes him try harder to succeed.
Most of us are not extreme athletes or explorers. However, we still take risks in our lives. Some of us take social risks, such as speaking in front of a large group of people. Sometimes, we take financial risks, such as buying a house. And sometimes we take career risks, such as leaving a job or starting a business. Most people take risks in some areas of life, but not in others. What kind of risk-taker are you?
【1】What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．The brain.
B．Something new.
C．A chemical.
D．A pleasant feeling.
【2】What does the underlined word "expeditions" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Much money.
B．A journey with a special goal.
C．A great idea.
D．A plan for a dangerous journey.
【3】How many kinds of extreme athletes or explorers are mentioned in the text?
A．Three.
B．Four.
C．Five.
D．Six.
【4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Mike Fay is a professional risk-taker.
B．Most people don't take risks in their daily life.
C．Extreme athletes deal with danger better than others.
D．Daron Rahlves takes risks mainly for change and excitement.

32、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。
I loved school, and I really did. But since May came in, it had become an uncomfortable place. May was the tallest kid in our fifth grade class. However, her height wasn’t a problem-her attitude was. No part of the student population was beyond the reach of May’s threats.
Many students thought that May was all bark and no bite. But I wasn’t so sure. I had managed to keep away from her. But all that changed when I showed up for school one morning with a new hairstyle. Apparently, by wearing my hair in a French braid (辫), I had managed to change my fate.
It all started when my best friend, Jaime, said my hair looked nice. I noticed May’s cold glare and it made me uncomfortable-but I remained focused on my math worksheet. Then came May’s frightening words as she passed me in the cafeteria: “Nice braid. Somebody might cut it off.”
I was scared, especially when May moved her fingers like a pair of scissors. My stomach dropped to my knees, and I immediately came up with a plan, which included hiding out in the bathroom at the end of the school day so as to avoid running into May on the walk home.
I told the crisis (危机) to my mother the next morning. She said to me, “She tries to make others scared, that’s all. Don’t be afraid of her. If she can see that you’re not afraid, she will stop. I’ll bet she’s like everybody else-she just wants to fit in and make friends. Perhaps she just doesn’t know how.”
I thought over my mother’s words. They were reasonable. May wasn’t so great at making friends. Maybe-just maybe-under all that toughness was a regular fifth grader who simply wanted to be liked. Did I have what it would take to befriend May? I wasn’t sure, but I wanted to find out.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After lunch, I invited May to come to my house after school.
