Johannes Fritz, a biologist, needed to come up with a plan, again, if he was going to prevent his rare and beloved
birds from going extinct.
To survive the European winter, the northern bald ibis (秃鹃) — which had once disappeared entirely from the
wild on the continent — needs to migrate south for the winter, over the Alps, before the mountains become blocked.
But shifting climate patterns have delayed when the birds begin to migrate, and they are now reaching the mountains
too late to make it over the peaks, locking them in an icy death trap. Determined to save them, Mr. Fritz decided he
would teach the birds a new, safer migration route by guiding them himself in a tiny aircraft. And he was confident he
could succeed in this daring, unusual plan —because he had done it before.
Mr. Fritz was his young pupils’ only provider of food and love since they’d been just a few days old, and the ibises
eagerly followed their teacher. He learned to fly, modifying a tiny aircraft so it would fly at speeds slow enough for his
winged students to keep up. In 2004, three years after some experiments, Mr. Fritz led the first flock from Austria to
Italy, and has since led 15 such migrations. Over that time, he has rewilded (放归) 277 young ibises, many of which
then started to pass the route on to their own young. For now, however, the main worry is getting the birds to follow the
aircraft. “While they have a strong bond with their ‘mothers’ and follow them around on the ground, flying is more
difficult,” Fritz said.
“Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists,” Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996movie in which a Canada
geese was led to migrate by an aircraft. When Mr. Fritz claimed he’d do the same with the ibises, he was initially laughed
at. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, laughing with ease. Mr.
Fritz’s two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family
and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the unexpected risks are “necessary”, Mr. Fritz said.
“It’s not so much a job,” he added, “but my life’s purpose.”
24. What made Mr. Fritz believe he would make it this time?
A. Confidence. B. Experience. C. Bravery. D. Determination.
25. What is Fritz’s present concern according to paragraph 3?
A. Whether the birds can fly after the aircraft.
B. Tight schedule to modify a tiny aircraft.
C. The extreme weather that prevents flying.
D. Limited support from the local government.
26. How is Mr. Fritz according to the passage?
A. Imaginative and out-going. B. Generous and easy-going.
C. Purposeful and strong-willed. D. Energetic and open-minded.
27. What can we know from paragraph 4?
A. Mr. Fritz once starred in a film in 1996.
B. Mr. Fritz was favored by those around him.
C. Mr. Fritz had no difficulty with what he did.
D. Mr. Fritz thought what he did was worthwhile.
C
There was a lot of news related to artificial intelligence, or AI, and machine learning. Among the stories were two
dealing with direct competitions between humans and machines.
In one competition, machines that used AI performed better than human beings in a high-level reading test. Two
natural language processing tools beat humans in the experiment. One of the tools was built by the American technology
company Microsoft. The other was created by Chinese online seller Alibaba Group.
In another competition, a computer took on humans in live, public debates.
The event demonstrated how AI-powered computers are increasingly being developed to think and sound like
humans. The organizer of the debates, U. S. technology company IBM, announced split results. It said a majority of
those watching said they felt the machine had done more to improve their knowledge of the subject. But, the human got
more praise for communicating their ideas.
This year, we also explored the many ways AI and machine learning are now being used. For example, some U. S.
judges use machine learning systems to help them decide when, and for how long, criminals should be jailed. The system
uses computers to examine data from thousands of court cases.
One fast-growing area of AI is facial recognition, which is increasingly being used for security purposes. Recently,
Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport became the first in the U. S. to permit passengers to use fa cial recognition
technology to get on flights. A Chinese company showed off an AI system it developed to recognize individuals by
body shape and walking movements. The system is already being used by Chinese police in Beijing and Shanghai.
In addition, machine learning was used during 2018 to predict results of the World Cup soccer competition. The
technology also created artwork that was sold for a large amount of money. And it is being used to help farmers save
time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. Other technology systems are being used to follow
farm animals and wildlife to collect information on their activities.
28. What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A. AI is perfect in all aspects.
B. Humans will be replaced sooner or later.
C. AI is the biggest threat to the human beings.
D. AI is more competent than humans in some areas.
29. Which of the following AI can’t do at present according to the passage?
A. Creative thinking. B. Facial recognition.
C. Collecting information. D. Predicting results of the games.
30. What do the last three paragraphs mainly talk about?
A. The disadvantages of AI. B. The application of AI.
C. The future of AI. D. The experiments of AI.
31. What’s the attitude of the author to AI?
A. Supportive. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Opposite.
D
Like the rest of us, scientists have long suspected the healing capacity of a good hug. Unlike the rest of us, they’ve
gone about trying to prove it.
“Laboratory studies suggest that things like hugs help us feel safer. They can also make us less sensitive to physical
pain and less reactive when we’re faced with threatening experiences,” says Michael Murphy. He is a research professor
in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Texas Tec h University. “This lab work has shown that hugs and other
touch behaviors are related to stress. The more stress we have, the more our heart rates and blood pressure go up. At
this time, hugs and other forms of personal touch may give off all sorts of feel-good chemicals, so that stress can be
reduced.”
“There’s a lot that we still need to learn, and there’s a lot we don’t know,” Murphy says. “However, what seems
to be rising up is that hugs, as well as other forms of loving and gentle touch, are really powerful. They remind people
that they’re cared about and that they have someone in their corner.”
“We expect touch. When we were born, we were placed in our mothers’ arms almost immediately. In that first year
of our life, we spend a lot of time being held by other people. And as we grow up, we seek out hugs and touch as a way
of connection. I think what we have lost in the past few years are these really easy opportunities to be reminded of
connection.”
While he was at Carnegie Mellon, Murphy was the lead author of a hug-centered 2018 article in the scientific
journal PLOS One. In a series of interviews with 404 adults over a two-week period, the researchers found that receiving
a hug is associated with the attenuation of negative emotions that occur on days with interpersonal conflicts. That is to
say, generally, hugs help to reduce the negative impacts that personal conflicts may cause in our daily lives.
32. According to the passage, what do laboratory studies suggest about the effects of hugs?
A. Hugs can make us more sensitive to physical pain.
B. Hugs can increase our heart rates and blood pressure.
C. Hugs can reduce stress and release feel-good chemicals.
D. Hugs have no impact on our emotional well-being.
33. What does the underlined word “They” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?
A. Only hugs. B. Any forms of touch.
C. People who are touched. D. All kinds of loving and gentle touch.
34. What is the purpose of seeking hugs and touch as we grow up?
A. To help us feel connected to others.
B. To develop physical strength and coordination.
C. To increase sensitivity to interpersonal conflicts.
D. To decrease the need for emotional connection.
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Hugs have little impact on our physical well-being.
B. Hugs can reduce stress and negative emotions.
C. Hugs can only be beneficial during the conflicts.
D. Hugs are a way of physical pain relief.

If something that you’re doing doesn’t challenge you, then it doesn’t change you. 36 You can never see
any improvement if you stick to your comfort zone. So challenge the following limits:
Figure out what you’re scared of and do it continuously.
If you’re a salesman, and you’re scared of talking to people personally or over the phone, now, instead of being
scared and thinking you’ll fail, spend at least five minutes a day picking up the phone and making a call. Someone may
hang up on you. 37
Eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, “Go on, I’m not scared!”
Take a class for a hobby you’ve been wanting to develop.
Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this.
38
Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.
Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.
You don’t need to go to the gym. 39 Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also
make you feel better about yourself.
40
Don’t just limit yourself to your fellow travelers —try to connect with the service staff.
You never know what kind of people they’re going to be. Get out of your house or go online right now to book
your class. Start to travel now and learn to challenge yourself.
A. You should do it continuously.
B. But don’t stop on the first try!
C. Go outside and do exercise regularly.
D. We all need some normal stress in our lives, after all.
E. Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people.
F. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on.
G. A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself.

第二节(满分 25分)
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。
There was a story that all the kids told at my school. I don’t know if they believed it but some of them certainly
acted as if they did. On the way from my home to school there was a little old cottage. You could only just see the
cottage, as if it were trying to hide itself behind the lemonade trees and bushy garden. At times, but not very often, the
children had seen a little old woman make her way along the cracked leaf-covered path from the front door to the
mailbox. Her fingers were twisted in funny shapes, her body was bent over and her back hunched (弓背). If she lifted
her head to look at you, her face was all wrinkly. “The witch (女巫) at Number 97” was how most kids spoke of her.
“Don’t look in her eyes,” you could hear them say. “She’ll capture you in a magic spell, take you into the house and
never release you again.”
In the mornings and at the end of the day, my friends and I would pass Number 97 in a group. We felt safer and
more secure in numbers. But now, I played the recorder so well that I was asked to join the school band, and that meant
staying after school one afternoon a week to rehearse (排练). So I had to walk home all by myself.
I set out as I normally would but as I began to approach the little old cottage it looked scarier than ever. For a while
I hesitated, not knowing what to do. I wanted to run but felt I really needed to just walk my way through the experience.
I took some deep breaths and tried to think of something different: Home, supper and my bed. While thinking of those
things, the dreadful look of the old cottage seemed to fade. When I started thinking about the witch again, the cottage
loomed big and frightening in my thoughts. “No,” I said to myself, “Concentrate on how good it will feel to get home,”
and with that I started to feel easier.
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。
But as I reached the front gate to Number 97, my heart almost stopped. __________________________________
