I used to live in Southern Africa and recently went back to Botswana to visit the Central
Kalahari Game Reserve with my friend Oscar. Why? Because there's nothing quite like the vast
African wilderness...
Our jeep moved slowly along the too-hot-to-touch sand. With no air conditioner and an
engine which might break down at any time, it was tough work. The dry heat was fierce and the
only break came from using our precious water for brief bucket showers．
With no supplies available within the park—it was a sort of no man's land which was
inhabited by the occasional cow — it is necessary to bring all your fuel, food and water with you．
We camped in a small place in the center of the woods. At the height of the dry season,
4
{#{QQABTYqAggCAAhBAABgCEQGaCAKQkAEAAIoGRAAEIAABwAFABAA=}#}
leaves in the trees had all fallen down, shade was in scant supply, so we placed ourselves near a
leaf less tree. As the sun set, we drove towards the watering hole a few miles away, and were
reminded just why we'd chosen to spend weeks suffering this exercise on ourselves. A lone lion
paused his lapping to acknowledge our arrival. He yawned, and then carried on drinking．
That night, sleeping on the roof of the jeep, we felt his shouting as much as heard it. Those
vast African skies offered the only indication that the outside world hadn't come to a state of
quietness, as bright satellite whipped across the blackness．
In the morning we saw that the lion had walked in the road overnight, his paw prints
pressed into yesterday's tyre tracks．
We set off for another morning inching through the sand; another day of changing
landscapes and raw, wild beauty; another night lit by shooting stars．
24. What can we learn about the author?
A. He is now living in Botswana．
B. He enjoys the wildness of nature
C. He slept in a hotel at night.
D. He didn't take enough food and water．
25. What did they think of their journey?
A. Cozy and safe B. Scary and annoying
C. Amazing and tough D. Pleasant and easy
26. What does the underlined word “scant” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. inadequate B. unbending
C. abundant D. ready
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Shining Stars and A Lone Lion
B. My Great Escape into the Wild
C. Travelling in the Southern Africa
D. Camping in Too-Hot-to-Touch Sand
C
Photosynthesis(光合作用) is a unique skill of green plants - they turn water and carbon
dioxide into oxygen and food via sunlight. A group of Chinese scientists, however ,copied the
process on animals.
To understand the new breakthrough, it is important to know how photosynthesis works.
Plants take in carbon dioxide and water from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is
oxidized. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose（葡萄糖）.
5
{#{QQABTYqAggCAAhBAABgCEQGaCAKQkAEAAIoGRAAEIAABwAFABAA=}#}
The plant then releases the oxygen back into the air and stores energy within the glucose
molecules. In the study, the researchers from Zhejiang University developed an independent and
controllable photosynthetic system, according to the study published in Nature in early
December,2022.
They separated thylakoids（类囊体）， a part of the cell where light reactions take place in
plants, from young spinach leaves. The scientists then wrapped the thylakoids with the cover of
animal cells, which made the implanted thylakoids more acceptable to foreign bodies. The mice
used in the study were suffering from arthritis, meaning cells in their cartilage had degenerated
and could not be repaired by themselves. With the thylakoids implanted into the mice and
exposed to light, the mice recovered. Their metabolism returned to normal.
In arthritis, the patients usually have energy loss since fewer energy- carrying molecules are
generated. The implant, however, can correct the imbalance by storing more energy via
photosynthesis. The researchers also claimed that their tests would have medical usage.
It can be used as part of the solution for degenerative diseases because the natural
photosynthesis system may repair cells. It may also delay the aging process in cells. The study
showed an exciting achievement that opens up possibilities of metabolism engineering,”
commented one of the paper’s reviewers Francisco Cejudo from the University of Seville in
Spain, reported Xinhua.
28. What is mainly mentioned in the paragraph 2 ?
A. The theory behind the experiment B. The background of the experiment
C. The procedures of the experiment D. The effects of the experiment
29. According to the passage ,what is the following information true ?
A. A group of Chinese scientists copied the photosynthesis of animals on plants.
B. The place in which the plant stores energy is thylakoids.
C. The thylakoids wrapped by animal cells make itself accepted with ease by foreign bodies
D. This therapy has been used as part of the solution for degenerative diseases
30. What is the attitude of a commentator towards the existing studies about the study?
A. Cautious. B. Approving.
C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Effective Photosynthesis
B. Breakthroughs made by a group of Chinese scientists,
C. Chinese scientists who copied Photosynthesis on animals.
D. Chinese scientists copied Photosynthesis on animals.

The needs of plus-size consumers have long been the elephant in the room of the fashion
industry until body positivity and fat acceptance movements promoted the slogan（口号）that
large-bodied people are not those who are left behind. This size-inclusive（尺码包容）trend has
become so popular that it is influencing mainstream culture. As a result, fashion brands have
finally decided to extend their size ranges. In 2022, the plus-size market grew twice as fast as the
standard size market in both North America and the UK.
Yet, many consumers say fashion brands broadening their ranges are not truly inclusive.
“Inclusive sizing means that all bodies are included in fashion, not just the ones who fit in
standard sizes,” says Marie Southard Ospina, a UK-based journalist who covers body-image
issues. “However, what many designers do right now is pick a number that they think is big
enough to include plus sizes and stop. This is even more disrespectful.”
Researchers also criticize that some brands are just taking advantage of the trend. “Brands
that used to promote so-called perfect bodies in their advertisements are now trying to get in on
the trend by adding a few sizes. It doesn’t feel like they really care about plus-size people,” says
Tom Burgess, analyst in fashion industry. “If brands cared about large-bodied consumers, then it
wouldn’t have taken until now to acknowledge that they exist,” he says. “It gives the impression
that companies are just trying to gain a share of the market without a real commitment to the
community.”
The fashion industry must go beyond merely producing clothing in a range of sizes if they
hope to succeed with a body-diverse world. The whole industry has to connect on a personal
level with consumers. That involves showing shoppers that they are seen, understood and
important to brands. “Consumers care about values, and so they want to buy from brands that
reflect the values they believe in. Everyone should enjoy the same range of fashion options,”
says Ludovica Cesareo, professor of marketing at the College of Business in the US.
32. What do the underlined words “the elephant in the room” mean in the first paragraph?
A. The hot issue that is valued.
B. The obvious truth that is ignored.
C. The important principle that is recognized.
D. The common phenomenon that is criticized.
33. Why do consumers say fashion brands are not truly inclusive?
A. They pick sizes randomly. B. They offer limited plus sizes.
C. They treat designers disrespectfully. D. They haven’t broadened standard sizes.

{#{QQABTYqAggCAAhBAABgCEQGaCAKQkAEAAIoGRAAEIAABwAFABAA=}#}
34. For what do researchers mainly criticize some brands?
A. Their designs. B. Their quality.
C. Their motivations. D. Their advertisements.
35. What does the last paragraph imply?
A. Buyers may deserve fashion that fits their figure.
B. Consumers prefer brands with personalized values.
C. Brands should catch up with the size-inclusive trend.
D. A good brand image is critical in the fashion industry.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Minor Snow, or Xiaoxue in Chinese, is the 20th of the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms,
and will last from November 22 to December 6 this year. It is the second solar term of winter,
and indicates that snow is about to arrive. From this solar term onwards, people in South China
will begin to feel the coming of winter. 36
Pickling vegetables
In Nanjing, it's customary to make pickle during the Minor Snow period, and then salted
meat during Major Snow. During Minor Snow, 37 In Hangzhou, people
will start to make sauced duck and Chinese bacon.
Eating glutinous (黏的）rice cakes
In many areas of Southern China, people eat glutinous rice cakes during Minor Snow. In
these places, there's a saying:十月朝，糍粑碌碌烧. In this saying, 碌（lu） means that people
use their chopsticks to pick up a glutinous rice cake and roll it like a wheel in a bowl full of
sesame and peanut sugar, and 烧（shao） indicates that the glutinous rice cakes are steaming
hot.
Cooking meat dishes
During Minor Snow, people in many regions of China will kill pigs, while during Major
Snow, they will kill sheep. No matter which household kills the animal, neighbors and friends
will all come to help. After the animal has been slaughtered（屠宰）, 38
Eating more porridge and soup
Eating more porridge and soup in winter is good for your health. For instance, wheat
porridge can nourish the heart, while radish porridge can improve digestion and reduce phlegm
that often arrives with the changing weather. Soups also help keep people healthy and can
improve the immune system. 39

{#{QQABTYqAggCAAhBAABgCEQGaCAKQkAEAAIoGRAAEIAABwAFABAA=}#}
Drinking more water
We already know that drinking more water is beneficial for metabolism. During the winter
months, it is highly recommended to drink a cup of warm water on an empty stomach in the
early morning. In this way, blood viscosity can be reduced, and cardiovascular and
cerebrovascular diseases can be prevented. During Minor Snow, honey water, white radish water
and pear water are excellent choices, as honey water can moisten dryness and help detoxify,
white radish water can clear heat, while pear can moisten the lungs and relieve stubborn coughs.
Staying warm
The weather is cold, but not yet too cold. Therefore, many people forget to put on their hats
and scarves, 40 If one wants to keep healthy, they should change their
clothes in accordance with the weather.
A. With the weather becoming increasingly cold, people wait expectantly for the first snow.
B. We suggest you prepare several sets of winter clothes.
C. which leaves them more likely to catch a cold.
D. For instance, fish soup is said to invigorate the spleen, stimulate appetite, and relieve coughs
and colds.
E. every household will begin to make pickled and dried vegetables.
F. From this solar term onwards, the northeast wind will blow more frequently.
G. the host will prepare dishes and hold a party, which symbolizes unity, harmony, peace and
prosperity.
