Like many new graduates, I left university full f hpe fr the future but with n real idea f what I wanted t d. My degree, with hnrs, in English literature had nt really prepared me fr anything practical. I knew I wanted t make a difference in the wrld smehw, but I had n idea hw t d that. That’s when I learned abut the Lighthuse Prject.
I started my jurney as a Lighthuse Prject vlunteer by reading as much as I culd abut the experiences f previus vlunteers. I knew it wuld be a lt f hard wrk, and that I wuld be away frm my family and friends fr a very lng time. In shrt, I did nt take my decisin t apply fr the Lighthuse Prject lightly. Neither did my family.
Eventually, hwever, I wn the supprt f my family, and I sent in all the paperwrk needed fr the applicatin. After cuntless interviews and presentatins, I managed t stand ut amng the candidates and survive the test alne. Several mnths later, I finally received a call asking me t reprt fr duty. I wuld be ging t a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had n idea. But I was abut t find ut.
After cmpleting my training, I was sent t the village that was small and desperately in need f prper accmmdatin. Thugh the lcal villagers were pr, they ffered their hmes, fd, and hearts as if I were their wn family. I was asked t lead a small team f lcal peple in building a new schlhuse. Fr the next year r s, I taught in that same schlhuse. But I smetimes think I learned mre frm my students than they did frm me.
Smetime during that perid, I realized that all thse things that had seemed s strange r unusual t me n lnger did, thugh I did nt get anywhere with the lcal language, and returned t the United States a different man. The Lighthuse Prject had changed my life frever.
24．Why did the writer enter fr the Lighthuse Prject?
A. Because his majr was cnnected with it.
B. Because he was extremely familiar with it.
C. Because he wanted t make the wrld a better place.
D. Because new graduates had t wrk fr it after graduatin.
25．Hw was the writer’s applicatin prcess?

26．What did the writer d in the village?
A. Wrking as a teacher.
B. Helping villagers build hspitals.
C. Raising mney fr his students.
D. Inviting lcals t enter his Prject.

Drught is an increasing prblem in ur warming wrld. All cntinents have been experiencing mre extended perids withut rain, leading t frest fires and pr crp grwth. Cnsequently, peple are lking at clud seeding t slve the prblem—a methd f encuraging precipitatin(降水) by sending small particles f certain chemicals int cluds.
Clud-seeding expert Arlen Huggins has been studying its effectiveness. "My earliest experience was t use clud seeding t reduce the amunt f hail (冰雹) in nrtheast Clrad. We didn't have any luck with that, but we had success later n in increasing snwfall in Utah. Nw, the fcus is shifting twards increasing rainfall frm summer cluds, which is far mre unpredictable." said he.
The prblem is that it's pretty hard t knw whether precipitatin resulted directly frm clud seeding. It might have rained r snwed anyway. Even if yu practice clud seeding in ne place and dn't in anther, it's impssible t knw fr sure what caused the precipitatin. "As clud seeding is expensive and its effectiveness uncertain, its usefulness is still a matter f pinin," says Katja Friedrich, a researcher f University f Clrad.
Additinally, it's nt during fggy and snwy cnditins that peple think f increasing the chance f rainfall. When a cuntry is hit by drught, then clud seeding isn't an ptin due t the lack f cluds. During drught, skies tend t be clear with few cluds. The best ptin t prevent drught is t seed at times f the year when rainfall levels are nrmal r higher.
There are als envirnmental issues regarding the impact f clud seeding. At high levels, the chemicals sent int the cluds can harm humans and ther animals, and sme studies have fund them slightly pisnus. Apart frm that, sme envirnmentalists are cncerned abut the lng-term impacts, as there isn't data n hw much thse chemicals accumulate in the envirnment ver 10 years.
28．What is the purpse f clud seeding?
A. T increase grain utput.B. T slw dwn glbal warming.
C. T reduce chemicals in the air.D. T deal with dry and rain-free weather.
29．Hw is Arlen Huggins' earliest experience in Paragraph 2?
A. It's effective. B. It's unsuccessful.C. It's satisfying. D. It's fruitful.
30．What is Katja Friedrich's attitude twards clud seeding?
A. Favurable. B. Oppsed.C. Unclear. D. Dubtful.
31．What can be inferred frm the text?
A. Drught currently pses the nly t hreat t frests and crps.
B. Rainmaking in any weather will cme true in the near future.
C. Researchers nw can nt tell if rainfall is brught by clud seeding.
D. Chemicals sent int the cluds will becme less pisnus ver time.
What des it mean t be intelligent? If it’s defined by having the biggest brain, then sperm whales (抹香鯨) — whse brain is 20 punds — wuld be the brightest creatures n Earth. But, mre likely, it’s hw a brain is wired. Viewed in this way, intelligence is what gives an rganism the best chance t survive in an envirnment. Language may be ne f the best ways t demnstrate that kind f smarts.
“Language allwing humans t be a mre advanced species is a hypthesis that smebdy came up with ne day withut really trying t prve it,” says Erich Jarvis, a prfessr wh studies the neur-bilgy f vcal learning. “The idea stuck arund, but s have ther cmmn beliefs that are nt really supprted with evidence,” he pints ut.
T get a better grasp f vcal learning and cgnitin, the study authrs turned t sngbirds. The team perfrmed seven cgnitive experiments n 214 sngbirds frm 23 different species. Of these, 21 species were caught frm the wild. The rest tw studied are dmesticated (家養(yǎng)的). The behaviral tests examined the birds’ prblem slving, fr instance, figuring ut hw t remve an bject t access the fd reward. The researchers als tested tw ther skills ften assciated with intelligence: learning by assciatin, plus what’s called reversal (倒轉的) learning, in which an animal adjusts its behavir t get a reward. They then lked at whether being vcal learners helped develp the three skills, cmparing 21 bird species t tw thers which were nn-vcal learners.
Jarvis’ new study prvides sme f the first evidence that vcal learning — ne f the crucial cmpnents fr a spken language — is assciated with prblem slving. Vcal learning bird species culd cme up with innvative ideas, such as getting seeds, r catching a wrm trapped under a cup by remving the bstacle r pulling it apart. All three abilities — prblem slving, assciative learning, and reversal learning — are typically cnsidered “cmpnents f intelligence,” he says.
“One questin left unanswered is why there’s such a strng relatinship between prblem-slving abilities and vcal learning. The brain areas in charge f vcal learning are nt the same nes that get activated when we need t trublesht (分析解決) an issue,” says Michael Gldstein, a prfessr f psychlgy at Crnell University wh studies vcal learning in sngbirds and humans but was nt invlved in the study.
32．Which can prbably define intelligence accrding t Paragraph 1?
A. Language.B. Brain size.C. Brain structure.D. Envirnment.
33．What des the underlined wrd in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Guarantee.B. Assumptin.C. Categry.D. Distributin.
34．What are Paragraphs 3&4 mainly abut?
A. Habits f sngbirds.B. Methds f dmesticating sngbirds.
C. Outline f the study.D. Three phases f displaying intelligence.
35．What may the text talk abut next?
A. The mechanism that bridges all the brain regins.
B. The functins f the brain areas that can trublesht issues.
C. The reasns why sngbirds’ intelligence can nt develp further.
D. The reasns why vcal learning influence prblem-slving abilities.

七、讀后續(xù)寫
54． July 1971, I was taking a summer class in Black-American literature n the campus f SUNY Onenta in nrthern New Yrk. Prfessr James walked int the classrm and annunced that he had invited a special guest t class, but his guest was delayed. The class stirred with curisity and anticipatin.
"Wh's cming?" smene asked.
"All I will tell yu is that he is the authr f ne f the bks yu have read fr this class," he said. "I need a vlunteer t meet him in the hall f the administratin building and take him here."
T my amazement, my right hand sht up as thugh it had a mind f its wn. "What am I ding?" I thught. I never vlunteered fr anything. I was shy and uncmfrtable meeting new peple. In fact, I was abslutely the wrng persn fr this jb. Realizing my mistake, I pulled my hand dwn quickly, but it was t late.
"Thank yu, David," Prfessr James said. "Yu'd better leave nw. He'll be arriving any minute."
Seeing n way t back ut, I reluctantly gt ut f my seat and headed fr the classrm dr. When I reached it, I stpped.
"Umm," I said. "If I dn't knw wh this persn is, hw will I recgnize him? I'd hate t bring back the wrng guy."
Prfessr James laughed. "Gd pint," he said. He pulled me aside and whispered a name in my ear. "Alex Haley," he said.
"Really?" I said. I gave a thumbs-up t the class and left the rm.
As I entered the empty hallway, I criticized myself fr vlunteering. "Why didn't yu let smene else d this?" Alex Haley was the authr f The Autbigraphy(自傳) f Malclm X. He was als famus fr his diligence, perseverance and in-depth thinking.
As I walked acrss the campus, my anxiety grew. I feared that I was abut t embarrass myself in frnt f this famus gentleman by asking stupid questins, r wrse, accmpanying him in painful silence. I reached the frnt steps and climbed them slwly.

25．答案：B
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Eventually, hwever, I wn the supprt f my family, and I sent in all the paperwrk needed fr the applicatin. After cuntless interviews and presentatins, I managed t stand ut amng the candidates and survive the test alne.(然而，最終，我贏得了家人的支持，我遞交了申請所需的所有文件。經(jīng)過無數(shù)的面試和陳述，我成功地從眾多候選人中脫穎而出，獨自通過了考試。)”和第四段“After cmpleting my training, I was sent t the village that was small and desperately in need f prper accmmdatin.(完成訓練后，我被送到一個非常需要適當住所的小村莊。)”可知，作者從申請到最終被錄取需要提交文件、多次的面試和演講、測試和培訓，可謂時間長，環(huán)節(jié)多，由此可知，作者申請的過程相當復雜。故選B項。
26．答案：A
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“I was asked t lead a small team f lcal peple in building a new schlhuse. Fr the next year r s, I taught in that same schlhuse.(我被要求帶領一小隊當?shù)厝私ㄔ煲凰滦Ｉ帷Ｔ诮酉聛淼囊荒曜笥业臅r間里，我在同一所學校教書。)”可知，作者幫助村民建學校，并在那里教書。故選A項。
27．答案：A
解析：主旨大意題。根據(jù)尾段中的“The Lighthuse Prject had changed my life frever.(燈塔計劃永遠地改變了我的生活。)”可知，作者畢業(yè)后加入Lighthuse Prject這一組織，經(jīng)培訓后被派往非洲尼日利亞的一個鄉(xiāng)村支教，雖然那里生活和工作條件艱苦，但是那里的人們善良且友好，朝夕相處中，作者了解了那里的人、事、物，自己也發(fā)生了改變，這段志愿支教經(jīng)歷對作者的人生產(chǎn)生了深遠的影響，由此可知，標題“改變?nèi)松闹驹附?jīng)歷”概括了文章的內(nèi)容，適合作為最佳標題。故選A項。
28．答案： D
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根斷短文首段“Drught is an increasing prblem in ur warming wrld. … Cnsequently, peple are lking at clud seeding t slve the prblem-a methd f encuraging precipitatin…”可知，人工降雨是為了能應對干旱無雨的天氣。
29．答案： B
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第二段“My earliest experience was t use clud seeding t reduce the amunt f hail in nrtheast Clrad. We didn't have any luck with that,…”可知， Arlen Huggins 最初是想用人工降雨的方法來減少美國科羅拉多州北部下冰雹的數(shù)量，遺憾的是運氣不好，即失敗了。
30．答案： D
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第三段“As clud seeding is expensive and its effectiveness uncertain, its usefulness is still a matter f pinin,”可知， Katja Friedrich認為人工降雨的做法代價高且效果不確定，是有待商榷的，即對其是持懷疑態(tài)度的。
31．答案： C
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第三段“The prblem is that it's pretty hard t knw whether precipitatin resulted directly... what caused the precipitatin.”可知，目前研究人員尚無法確定降雨就是由于人工降雨作用的結果。
32．答案：C
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段前三句“What des it mean t be intelligent? If it’s defined by having the biggest brain, then sperm whales (抹香鯨) — whse brain is 20 punds — wuld be the brightest creatures n Earth. But, mre likely, it’s hw a brain is wired.(智力意味著什么？如果它的定義是擁有最大的大腦，那么抹香鯨——它的大腦有20磅重——將是地球上最聰明的生物。但更有可能的，是大腦的連接方式。)”可知，大腦結構可能定義智力。故選C。
33．答案：B
解析：詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第二段第一句中的“smebdy came up with ne day withut really trying t prve it(有人在某天提出的，卻沒有真正去證明它)”可知，此處是指有人提出的一個假設，所以hypthesis意為“假設”。故選B。
34．答案：C
解析：主旨大意題。根據(jù)第三段前兩句“T get a better grasp f vcal learning and cgnitin, the study authrs turned t sngbirds. The team perfrmed seven cgnitive experiments n 214 sngbirds frm 23 different species.(為了更好地掌握聲樂學習和認知，研究作者轉向了鳴禽。研究小組對來自23個不同物種的214只鳴禽進行了7項認知實驗。)”和第四段第一句“Jarvis’ new study prvides sme f the first evidence that vcal learning — ne f the crucial cmpnents fr a spken language — is assciated with prblem slving.(Jarvis的新研究首次提供了一些證據(jù)，證明語音學習——口語的關鍵組成部分之一——與解決問題有關。)”可知，第三段和第四段介紹了這項新研究的方法和結果，即研究的梗概。故選C。
35．答案：D
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“One questin left unanswered is why there’s such a strng relatinship between prblem-slving abilities and vcal learning.(有一個問題沒有得到解答，那就是為什么解決問題的能力和語音學習之間存在如此密切的關系。)”可知，文章接下來有可能討論語音影響解決問題能力的原因。故選D。
36．答案：①-⑤GCFDE
解析：①上文“Have yu read a stry and felt tears well up because f a character’s suffering? If s, that is because yu have empathy (共情) fr the character. (你是否讀過一個故事，因為一個人物的痛苦而熱淚盈眶？如果是這樣，那是因為你對角色有共情。)”提到“共情”，結合諸選項信息可知，G選項“它可以幫助你看到別人的心，可以通過不同的故事來學習?！逼鹾险Z境，該句就是對上文“empathy”進行說明和解釋，“it”指代“empathy”，“stries”呼應上文“stry”。故選G。
②根據(jù)本段首句“Research shws that human brains react differently t stries and facts. (研究表明，人類大腦對故事和事實的反應是不同的。)”可知，本段主要談論人的大腦會根據(jù)不同的故事和事實產(chǎn)生不同的反應；C選項“當你在欣賞一個故事時，你的大腦會有更多的區(qū)域被激活。”也是談論當人閱讀時大腦的反應，契合語境。故選C。
③下文“This skill, called emtinal intelligence (EI), can make it easier t cmmunicate and cnnect with peple. (這種技能被稱為情商，可以讓你更容易與人溝通和聯(lián)系。)”講述情感智力這項技能能夠使溝通和與人建立聯(lián)系更容易，F(xiàn)選項“同理心可以幫助你讀懂別人的情緒并想出最佳方式來回應。”契合語境，下文This skill指代F項中的Empathy。故選F。
④上文“After reading The By at the Back f the Class, a stry abut a by wh is a refugee escaping frm the war, students in St Michael’s High Schl were inspired t d a 10-mile walk fr the nn-prfit rganizatin — Refugee Actin. (在讀完《教室后面的男孩》后，圣邁克爾高中的學生們受到啟發(fā)，為非營利組織‘難民行動’進行了10英里的步行活動。這本書講述了一個逃離戰(zhàn)爭的男孩的故事。)”進一步舉例說在讀了《教室后面的男孩》這本書后，圣邁克爾高中的學生的反應，選項D“這也促使他們?yōu)橐驊?zhàn)爭而無家可歸的人籌集了1000英鎊?！币彩窃谡務摲磻捍偈顾麄?yōu)橐驊?zhàn)亂而無家可歸之人募集一千英鎊，因而契合語境。故選D。
⑤由本空所在位置可知，此處為段首句，總括全段信息，下文“Nt nly are we mre likely t engage in helpful behavirs when we feel empathy fr ther peple, but thers are als mre likely t help us when they experience empathy. Fr sciety t develp, cmmunicative and empathetic individuals really matter. (當我們對他人感同身受時，我們不僅更有可能做出有益的行為，而且當他人感同身受時，他們也更有可能幫助我們。為了社會的發(fā)展，善于溝通和善解人意的個人真的很重要。)”談論當我們對他人感同身受時，我們不僅更有可能做出有益的行為，而且當他人感同身受時，他們也更有可能幫助我們，是在講述共情對人有益。由此可知，選項E“閱讀鼓勵我們?nèi)ネ樗?，這是有益的?！逼鹾险Z境。故選E。

52．答案：①began②a③advanced④is calculated⑤directly⑥which⑦masterpieces⑧within⑨representing⑩and
解析：①考查時態(tài)。句意：中國書法的發(fā)展始于迄今為止發(fā)現(xiàn)的最早的漢字。分析句子可知，這里考查謂語動詞，The evlutin f Chinese calligraphy與begin為主動關系，再由the earliest Chinese characters discvered t date可知，這里時態(tài)應用一般過去時，表示過去情況。故填began。
②考查冠詞。句意：隨著時間的推移，書法逐漸成為一種藝術形式，而不僅僅是一種記錄手段。分析句子可知，這里表示“一種記錄手段”，為泛指，所以應用不定冠詞，且mere為輔音音素開始的單詞。故填a。
③考查形容詞。句意：書法是一門要求很高的高級藝術。分析句子可知，此空應填形容詞作定語，修飾后面名詞，advanced表“先進的”，為形容詞，符合句意。故填advanced。
④考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。句意：從畫筆的方向到書寫的速度，手腕的每一次扭曲和轉動都是經(jīng)過計算的。分析句子可知，此空應填謂語動詞，主語every twist and turn f the wrist 與calculate為被動關系，且這里時態(tài)應與前面保持一致，用一般現(xiàn)在時。故填is calculated。
⑤考查副詞。句意：此外，據(jù)說作者的情感和哲學直接反映在書法上。分析句子可知，此空應填副詞作狀語，修飾后面動詞。故填directly。
⑥考查定語從句。句意：《蘭亭序》是王羲之創(chuàng)作于東晉（317-420）的中國書法精品之一。分析句子可知，這里考查非限制性定語從句，先行詞Lan Ting Xu，為物，在從句中作主語，應用關系代詞which引導。故填which。
⑦考查名詞復數(shù)。句意：《蘭亭序》是王羲之創(chuàng)作于東晉（317-420）的中國書法精品之一。分析句子可知， ne f 后應加名詞復數(shù)形式。故填masterpieces。
⑧考查介詞。句意：然而，書法也是觸手可及的，就像人們門上的春聯(lián)一樣，代表著中國人的審美。分析句子可知，這里考查within reach表“觸手可及”，為固定搭配。故填within。
⑨考查非謂語。句意：然而，書法也是觸手可及的，就像人們門上的春聯(lián)一樣，代表著中國人的審美。分析句子可知，此空應填非謂語， calligraphy與represent為主動關系，再由句意可知，這里應用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。故填representing。
⑩考查連詞。句意：有中國語言的地方就有中國書法，有書法的地方就美。分析句子可知，此空前后兩個句子為并列句，所以這里應填并列連詞and。故填and。
