It’s time to sign up for Kids Bowl Free 2023!

Dates range from center to center and state to state. The center my family signed up for starts from

May 3rd but I saw a couple of centers in Pennsylvania and South Carolina that had start dates in

APRIL!

Be sure the kids are signed up for Kids Bowl Free 2023.

The Kids Bowl Free 2023 program is not specific to a certain chain of bowling alleys (保龄球场).

You can find a participating center near you. Kids (under 15 years old) can get TWO free games

EVERY DAY at a participating center. Most places will require a bowling shoe rental-not included in

the program.

But wait! That’s not all!

You can also sign up teens and adults for a summer pass for $39.95. Up to 4 people get two games

every day during the summer with the family pass so that the whole family can bowl every day!

USE CODE: HOT25 on the Family Pass page * to save 25%! Making it just $29.95!

If the code HOT25 doesn’t work, when it asks if you want to sign up for the Family Pass, find the

tiny “No Thanks” button and click it. When you do that, you’ll be offered a discount code!

Shoe rental not included.

Save even more on your kids bowl free when you don’t have to rent shoes! Search Ebay for

bowling shoes and get a great deal! I got us each a pair for this year and if we bowl 6 times our shoe

cost will be less than if we rented shoes 6 times. And with our own shoes, we can go more often!

21. What benefit does the program offer?

Zhang Xiao, a 28-year-old farmer from Henan Province, had never dreamed he would be trending

on Douyin tending to his land. But as you watch his videos on Chinese Farmer—the channel he runs

with his friend, Du Hai, 27—you quickly understand why he is attracting millions of views.

Set up in 2018, Chinese Farmer was a result of the two friends’ love of farming, technology and

filmmaking. Their videos offer tips, advice and information on various aspects of agriculture, including

direct-farming techniques, agriculture-related activities, new farming tools, and agricultural apps. In

addition to explaining how agricultural markets function, the channel shares success stories from across

the country. A section that draws the most attention features workable solutions to everyday problems

and do-it-yourself mechanical quick-fixes.

“We were looking to do something together. Agriculture was something we had in common. Plus,

we were young and idealistic—we wanted to do something with a social impact,” says Zhang Xiao.

The channel has certainly made a mark, as the numbers show. Since 2018, their channel has built a

user base of 21.5 million, thanks to the affordable mobile data revolution and the increasing popularity

of smartphones in China. While Du Hai takes charge of the production side of things, Zhang Xiao offers

his hands-on knowledge obtained from running his family farm. According to them, the Chinese Farmer

channel adds an average of 60,000 subscribers and earns between 70,000 and 100,000 in revenue every

month.

“Knowledge in this sector is often inter-generational: a farmer is limited to what the others nearby

know and do. There was very little by way of books or culture channels that addressed the needs,

mistakes and scarcities of farmers. Social media has changed things. It enables cross-sharing of

knowledge, all for free,” Du Hai says.

24. What’s the channel’s most popular section?

A. Inspiring stories. B. Advanced tools.

C. Practical solutions. D. Agricultural activities.

英语 第 4 页 (共 12 页)

25. Which of the following words can best describe the two farmers?

A. Experienced and sociable. B. Cooperative and devoted.

C. Conservative and diligent. D. Courageous and humorous.

26. Why are the figures listed in paragraph 4?

A. To show the economic gains. B. To imply the cooperation relationship.

C. To highlight social media engagement. D. To indicate the success of the channel.

27. What message does the underlined sentence convey?

A. Resources were available to address farmers’ needs.

B. Farming knowledge relies on books and the Internet.

C. Agricultural modernization is dependent on technology.

D. Social media facilitates free knowledge exchange in agriculture.

Goldfish may seem like simple creatures swimming in a glass tank, but they possess a rather

complicated navigation system, as discovered by researchers at the University of Oxford Led by Dr.

Adelaide Sibeaux, the study aims to shed light on our understanding of how fish, and potentially

humans, estimate distances using what could be described as an internal GPS.

Writing in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, Sibeaux and colleagues report how they

created a tank in their experiment with 2cm-wide black and white vertical stripes (条纹) on the walls,

connected by similar stripes across the floor. The team trained nine goldfish to swim a set distance of

70cm and then return to their starting point when waved at. The experiment aimed to investigate how

the fish would estimate this distance without any gestures, under different patterns.

Over multiple trials, the goldfish averaged a swim distance of 74cm, give or take 17cm, when

presented with the vertical 2cm-wide stripes. However, when the stripe pattern was altered to either

narrower vertical stripes, checked patterns, or horizontal stripes, the fish’s behavior changed

significantly. Narrower vertical stripes led them to overestimating the distance by 36%, while horizontal

stripes resulted in highly inconsistent estimations.

According to the researchers, the goldfish appeared to be using an “optic (光 学 的 ) flow

mechanism” based on the visual density of their environment. They kept track of how frequently the

vertical pattern switched between black and white to estimate how far they had traveled. The study

英语 第 5 页 (共 12 页)

suggests that different optic flow mechanisms are used by mammals, including humans, based on

angular (有角度的) motion of visual features. The study implies that the use of visually based distance

information could have emerged early in the evolutionary timeline.

“This study is novel because, despite knowing that fish respond to geometric information regarding

direction and distance, we don’t know how they estimate distances,” Professor Colin Lever, although

not involved in the study, said, “it’s exciting to explore fish spatial mapping because fish navigation

evolved earlier and better than most mammals.”

28. Why did Dr. Adelaide Sibeaux conduct the study on goldfish?

A. To test the accuracy of goldfish’s internal GPS.

B. To create an advanced navigation system for humans.

C. To uncover how an inbuilt GPS helps calculate distances.

D. To explore the relationships between goldfish and humans.

29. What can we learn about the experiment?

A. People gestured the goldfish throughout the experiment.

B. The tank was decorated with colorful background patterns.

C. Goldfish tended to underestimate distances with horizontal stripes.

D. The change in the tank setting led to the goldfish's incorrect judgment.

30. What does the author indicate in the fourth paragraph?

A. Optic flow mechanism is unique to humans.

B. Mammals developed flow mechanism long before goldfish.

C. Goldfish evaluated the distance with multidimensional visual information.

D. Visual density of the environment strengthened the locating ability of goldfish.

31. What attitude does Professor Colin hold towards the study?

A. Neutral. B. Ambiguous. C. Disapproving. D. Favorable.

D

If someone asked whether you like the arts, you’d probably say you do—at least in theory.

According to a survey, more than two-thirds of U.S. adults say the arts “lift me up beyond everyday

experiences”. However, only 30 percent attended a concert of any type in 2022; 23 percent went to an

art museum. Fewer than half actively created art of any kind.

英语 第 6 页 (共 12 页)

The mismatch can boil down to the fact that we are weighed down by our day-to-day

responsibilities, leaving our schedule packed. Maybe you like to play a little background music while

you work or do the chores, but even before the pandemic, most of us rarely, if ever, saw a live

performance, let alone visited a gallery or watched a play.

Too often, we let the dull reality of life get in the way of the arts. But this is a mistake. The arts are

the opposite of an escape from reality; they might just be the most realistic glimpse we ever get into the

nature and meaning of life. If you make time for consuming and producing art—the same way you

make time for work and exercise and family commitments—I assure you that you’ll find your life

getting fuller and happier. Think of a time when you heard a piece of music and wanted to cry. Or

maybe your dizziness as you emerged from a narrow side street in an unfamiliar city and found yourself

in a beautiful town square as if in a fantasy. They probably stimulated a sudden awakening, much like

the shock from a lungful of pure oxygen after breathing in smoggy air.

If you are among the people who feel that art is pure pleasure to experience and participate in, you

might see it as a luxury item, while a preferable attitude is to treat art less like a distracting pleasure, and

more like exercise or sleep, a necessity. Then draw up a schedule of your art exposure journey, and

gradually weave art into your everyday life.

32. What prevents people from enjoying the arts?

A. Shortage of time. B. Avoidance of duty.

C. Lack of interest. D. Art space unavailability.

33. What can we learn about the role of art according to the passage?

A. It explores mysteries of nature. B. It stirs emotional responses.

C. It enhances physical well-being. D. It offers a getaway from daily life.

34. What will be talked about next in the passage?

A. Ways to integrate art into routine. B. Barriers to combining art and life.

C. Forms of distracting pleasures. D. Benefits of engaging with art.

35. Which is the most suitable title for the text?

A. Art Journey: From Body to Mind

B. Embracing Art: From Luxury to Necessity

C. Art Pursuit: Transforming Dull into Full

D. Connecting with Art: From Reality to Fantasy

Choosing the Right Career

You will be leaving this school and the unavoidable question many people will ask you is, “

36 ” Some of you may have already decided on a career path, but many of you still don’t have a

clue! Here are some things you might want to consider.

First, does the career you are considering have staying power? 37 Rapid technological change

is disruptive (扰 乱 性 的 ), and we need to be forward-looking at our future prospects. While many

occupations are being taken over by new technology, jobs that require high-level of critical thinking,

emotional intelligence and human interaction, remain in high demand. These jobs are not easily

replaced by machines or technology. So think carefully about this before you choose your professional

path.

Second, choose a career that interests you. Some people might think this is unimportant, but if you

are truly passionate about your job then going to work every day won’t seem a chore. 38 Before

making a choice, you should examine your values, skills and personality type. This can help you decide

if a career path is a good fit for you.

Third, of course you will want to consider your chosen profession’s earning power. Although high

pay play s a part, you should know that a job with a big salary will likely require more time to get to the

top, much more effort and a higher level of stress. 39 If you have interests outside of work, or

are struggling with other demands in your life, you might want to choose a less demanding line of work.

40 Let me leave you with an old saying: “Choose a job you love, and you will never have

to work a day in your life.”

A. You are on the right track.

B. So, what do you want to be?

C. Will it be in demand in 20 years’ time?

D. It’s also likely that you will stay and grow in this career.

E. They simply want you to be the best of the best to your best ability.

F. Only the truly motivated will likely to be able to meet these challenges.

G. Thinking about a life-long career at this stage in your life is surely disturbing.

For many young Canadians, planting trees is more than just a job. It’s a way of 41 — and it

Perhaps no other scientist has had a greater impact on China’s aerospace science than Qian

Xuesen. Born in Hangzhou in 1911, Qian went to the United States for 61 (far) studies in 1935.

Soon as a pioneer in American jet and rocket technology, he and his colleagues 62 (found) the

Jet Propulsion Laboratory in the 1940s, now one of NASA’s leading space-exploration centres.

63 (overcome) many difficulties in the US, Qian eventually returned to China in 1955. He

received a hero’s welcome from his homeland. At that time, in poor China, its rocket science was

undeveloped — No majors in rocket science; No talents; No experts. Nevertheless, the “No” s didn’t

discourage him from 64 (take) on the challenge. His reply to “Can we Chinese possibly make

missiles?” was a determined “Why not? We Chinese are able to make the same things 65 other
