I had never been to such an amazing national park like Yosemite before, yet I wasn't the most athletic person, so I knew that I couldn't stick through all the hiking up and down. It actually ended up being a fun and adventurous experience.
The ride there was definitely long but worth it. As I woke up from my nap, I saw the beautiful scenery of the tall mountains and beautiful streams. The waterfalls were attractive with beautiful views. Climbing up rocks was one of my favorite parts. Even though I fell a couple of times, I still had a lot of fun. The fact that my family and I spent so much time together all trying to find out which route to take and what views to watch really brought us closer together.
The great thing about nature is that, it's just you, the views, and the people around you. There's nothing there to bother you and it's the best way to relax and enjoy yourself. Yosemite has 5 of the world's highest waterfalls, and about 300 lakes. The structure of each mountain is incredible. Some of them are in a deep dark color with waterfalls forming, while some are formed with spots of gr en that reach high up to the sky. It's definitely something you wouldn't want to miss. The park also has various wild life species that hang around you.
Yosemite isn't the only great National Park but based on my experience I highly recommend going out and enjoying nature with family and friends. It's a great time to contact friend and families, to laugh, and to take in what Mother Nature has to offer.
24. How does the writer feel while climbing up rocks
A. Worried. B. Injured. C. Puzzled. D. Pleased.
25. What attracts the writer most in the National Park
a. The forms of the mountains. b. The color of the waterfalls.
c. The stretching plants. d. The wandering animals.
e. The hunters here and there.
A. a, b, c B. b, c, e C. a, c, d D. a, d, e
26. What does the writer think of Yosemite
A. It is worth travelling to. B. It is just made up of some hills.
C. It is not the most beautiful park. D. It is packed with visitors every day.
27. Which of the following is recommended to do at the end of the text
A. Visiting Yosemite now and then. B. Trying to protect the environment.
C. Going out to enjoy the beauty of nature. D. Keeping a good connection with other people.
C
Can artificial intelligence uncover a liar It sounds like science fiction, but such an AI system is possible. Rada Mihalcea, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, has worked on deceit(欺骗) detection for about a decade.
The first thing that researchers working on artificial intelligence and machine learning need is data. In the case of the work that Mlhalcea did, they began with videos from actual court cases. For example, a defendant speaking in a trial in which he is found to have committed a crime could provide an example of deceit; they also employed words from witnesses as either example of truthful or deceitful statements. Altogether, they analyzed121 videos—about half represented dishonest statements, and half truthful. It was this data that they used to build machine learning deceit detectors that ultimately had between a 60to 75 percent accuracy rate.
One thing the system noticed is the use of pronouns—people who are lying would tend to less often use the word “I” or “we”, Mihalcea explains. “Instead, people who are lying would more often use ‘you,’ ‘yours,’” Besides, someone telling a lie would use “stronger words” such as “absolutely,” and “very,” that reflect certainty, while interestingly, people telling the truth were more likely to use words such as “maybe” or “probably. ”As for gestures, she points out that someone being deceitful would be more likely to look directly into the eyes of the person questioning them. They also tended to use both hands when gesturing.
However, Mlhalcea's work is “far from perfection,” she admits. “As a researcher, we are content that we were able to get to 75 percent accuracy. But looked at another way, that's an error rate of one in four. ” Ultimately, she sees technology like this as being assistive for people—it could indicate that it noticed something “unusual” in a speaker’s statement, and then perhaps have a person “investigate more. ”
28. How did researchers create the deceit detection using artificial intelligence
A. They interviewed criminals in court cases.
B. They involved AI system in a real-life trial.
C. They employed witnesses to identify dishonest criminals.
D. They fed the system with both truthful and deceitful statements.
29. According to the passage, what is a liar likely to do
A. Gesture with one hand. B. Question others directly.
C. Use pronouns repeatedly. D. Speak with strong certainty.
30. What does Mlhalcea think of her work
A. It completely lives up to her expectation. B. It can be used as an aid for human beings.
C. It can replace human beings to uncover a lie. D. It successfully lowers the error rate of detection.
31. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. The use of pronouns and gestures in lie. B. Rada Mihalcea’s research on lie detection.
C. The limitations of current lie detection technology. D. Accuracy rate of machine learning deceit detectors.
D
How do the world's only flying mammals(哺乳动物) communicate Researchers have observed young bats adopting new “dialects” simply by hearing them repeatedly, making them one of the few animals known to be capable of voice learning. “These bats may help us clarify the development of speech learning skills,” says Yosef Prat, a PhD at Tel AvivUniversity.
For one year, researchers raised 14 Egyptian fruit baby bats with their mothers in controlled area, surrounding each young bat with two different voices: the natural call of its mother and a distinct recording that varied in loudness or tone. They found that the baby bats in each group developed a dialect like the recording. “The general assumption in this field is that most animals develop their born voices in despite of what they hear, and that human voice learning abilities have developed as time goes by,” says Mr. Prat. “The finding that bats learn the common dialect in their rest place was unusual. ”
Scientists know little about the origin of spoken language, which is believed to have appeared in humans within the past 500,000 years. A diversity of theories attempts to give a detailed clarification of this skill, but none have done so conclusively.
“Studying voice communication and voice learning in animal models is a very useful way to approach the problem,” says Olga Feher, an assistant professor at the University of Warwick in England.
But animal voice s and human speech are very different things, says Jamin Pelkey, a professor at Ryerson University. “All species communicate. Unlike other animals, though, human beings are able to use sound patterns for functions that are far stranger—functions that are imaginative, theoretical, and critical. When speech is involved in these stranger functions, that is what we mean by spoken ‘language’. ’’
32. How do young bats pick up their “language” according to the research
A. By hearing it constantly. B. By interacting with partners.
C. By learning from researchers. D. By repeating it with their mothers.
33. Why does Mr. Prat think the findings unusual
A. It is distinct from the general assumption.
B. It helps people understand human voice leaning.
C. It proves animals only develop their inborn voices.
D. It makes the previous assumption more convincing.
34. What does the underlined word “problem” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. Illustrating the origin of animal voices.
B. Giving a full account of spoken language.
C. Helping animals develop their born voices.
D. Telling the differences between animal voices and human speech.
35. What does professor Pelkey think of researching young bats
A. It is not so relevant to understanding human speech.
B. It promotes people to use imaginative sound patterns.
C. It is essential for analyzing animal voice learning skills.
D. It helps people explore more functions of spoken language.

Today it is common to see people who walk about with colored wires hanging from their ears wherever they go. They move about in their personal bubbles, sometimes unaware of what's happening around them. They walk around in their own spaces, with their personal “digital noise reduction systems”. 36 . So are you one of “them”
For me, walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect. After all, I am listening to my favourite music and would rather not be bothered. What's even better, wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says,“ 37 . ”
Suppose you're at work and about to make an incredible advance, but a colleague suddenly turns up. His sudden appearance would break your concentration and cause mistakes. 38 . Once again, those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that “Go away! ”signal.
39 . It's probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family. While their mothers give them lectures about why they should do their homework, they can just turn up the volume on their MP3 player, smile, and say “Yes, Mum.” Problem solved.
Pretty soon, not only will we have pretty colored wires hanging from our ears, but also our brains will be directly filled with some new high-tech instruments. We'll be in a virtual world, communicating with everyone else, or choosing not to, as we like. 40 . And they are changing our social habits along the way.
In the end, there is a thin line between using technology as a tool for making life better and being controlled by it! It's so strange —suddenly, I don't feel like wearing my earphones anymore.
A. Outside life is shut out.
B. Our devices are changing quickly.
C. I also have wires hanging from my ears.
D. I'm not available for chatting at the moment!
E. In the home situation, teenagers are attracted to these wires.
F. I don't have the responsibility to deal with the noise from the environment.
G. Listening to music through earphones is the perfect way to ignore such trouble.

Standing at the lake's edge, I threw my line onto the smooth-as-glass water of Police Outpost Lake, lost in my own thoughts.
I'd learned to fish from my dad. He had taught me to fish alone, in silence. He had been a fish and wildlife office r with great passion for his job, especially the part where he protected nature from humans. He had showed me everything I knew about fishing. Then, he passed away.
My brother Isaiah shouted, “where should I stand ”
“Be quiet or else we won't catch any fish,” I whispered.
Isaiah frowned, sighing, but it was “message received. ”
Pulling back on my fish pole, looking into the light of the sun, I caught sight of a few great northern loons(潜鸟)gathered together not far from the shoreline. What were they doing there Loons usually travel alone, but here were five of them in a group. Maybe it was a family One loon, crying in sorrow, swam away from the group, toward me.
“Isaiah! Come here! Take a look at that loon. It's swimming toward us, getting closer and closer. ”
“It's only a decoy(诱饵),”said Isaiah. “Look at that beak(喙)! It could easily stick us to death with that thing! It could tear our faces! Pull out our eyes! ”
Just then, the loon let out crazy laughing sound.
“It's not a decoy! It's trying to get our attention. ”I said.
The loon stopped in the shallow water near shore, not ten feet away from us. It was so close that we could see its small red eyes.
Oddly, the bird's wings were held against its spotted black-and-white body. Walking into the water, getting closer to the loon, we both saw a thin wire surrounding its neck tightly. It was asking us to help!

Thinking of its dangerous beak, I was rooted to the spot. Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes for a second to calm myself. Somehow I felt my dad's presence, as if he was standing shoulder to shoulder with me. “Jacob, the bird won't hurt you. It needs your help. I am here and will guide you through this. ”My hands were shaking, but I bent down to pick up the loon. Taking it gingerly under its wings, I held it out at arm's length, afraid that it might stab me with its beak. But the loon was silent and still. “Go grab the scissors from the tackle box.” Isaiah ran, splashing his way to shore. He came back with the tiny pair of scissors with which we cut away the fishing line from around the loon's neck.
We put the loon on a rock gently, satisfied with what we did just now. I patted the loon's head, a gesture of gratitude that it hadn't used its beak as a weapon. After making sure no injury was on its body. I set it down on the water. Then, training its red eyes directly on us, it rose up, slapped its wings down hard on the surface of the lake and flew away with a beautiful singing. It seemed to be saying, “Thank you, boys. You saved me. I won't soon forget. ”“How did we do that ” Isaiah exclaimed with amazement. “I can't believe it! I'm still shaking. ”He continued. Looking at the shore where my father used to stand, I said: “Yeah, we did. But I couldn't have done it without my dad. ”

A diversity of theories attempts to give a detailed clarification of this skill, but none have done so conclusively. 可知，科学家对口头语言的起源几近无知，许多理论想要详细阐述口头语言，且至今尚无结论，所以通过上下文的语境可以判断出“problem”指的是“详细阐述口头语言”。
35. A。根据最后一段 But animal vocalizations and human speech are very different things 可知，动物发声与人类语言迥然不同。由此推断出，蝙蝠的实验结论与理解人类语言关系不大。
【文章大意】
这是一篇说明文。当今随处可见带着耳机的青少年们，他们沉浸在自己的世界里，与外界隔绝。戴耳机有很多好处，可以省去很多打扰和麻烦。科技改变了人们的生活习惯，本来是为了使生活更美好，但人们似乎在逐渐成为它们的奴隶。
36. A。考察对比关系，本段介绍耳机一族的生活现状。根据“They walk around in their own spaces”可知戴上耳机，他们沉浸在自己的圈子里里，而外面的生活被拒之门外。
37. D。考察解释关系。戴上耳机就似乎在告诉别人“我现在没空跟你聊天”。
38. G。根据前文“His sudden appearance would break your concentration and cause mistakes. (同事的出现会使你注意力不集中和犯错)”以及后一句“Once again, those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that “Go away! ” signal. （你耳朵上的耳机会给周围的人会给出“走开，请勿打扰”的暗示）”可知，空格处与后一句为并列关系，说明耳机在不被人所打扰方面所起的作用。且F选项中的such trouble 指代同事的干扰这种麻烦事。故选F。
39. E。根据后一句“It's probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family. （这可能是成长阶段的一部分，他们只想忽略整个家庭）”可知，所以这一段主要讲青少年在家里戴耳机的原因。故E选项“In the home situation, teenagers love these wires. （青少年喜欢在家里使用耳机）”符合语境，故选E。
40. B。根据后一句“And they are changing our social habits along the way. （同时它们也在改变我们的社会习惯）”可知，and提示空格处与后一句为并列关系, 且话题一致。故 A选项“Our devices are changing quickly。（我们的设备在快速变化）”符合语境，故选 A。

W: ⑦Which do you prefer, driving a car yourself or being a passenger
M: Well, that depends. ⑥I enjoy driving, especially on long empty roads where I can go nice and fast.

I suppose I don't mind being a passenger, but only if I'm sure that the other person really can drive properly.
W: ⑦So you don't really like being in other people's cars, then
M: Well, as I say, it's all right with a good driver. Then I can relax, sit back and enjoy the scenery. But yes, you're right—on the whole I certainly prefer driving to being a passenger.

W: What's pair-work
M: It's when you practice your English by speaking to the person next to you.

M: It isn't good for me! The student next to me reads his dictionary all the time. He looks for words to say, but he says nothing. When I speak to him, he doesn't understand me!
W: Don't worry! Pair-work is very difficult the first time. Tomorrow it will be very easy!

W: What
M: I'm alone here in England. Would you like to go shopping and sightseeing with me on Saturday
W: I'm a very bad person, so the answer to your question is yes!

Agnes Mill was one of the earliest leaders of the women's liberation movement in the United States. She was born on a farm in Missouri in 1892. Strangely enough she had a very happy life as a child. She was the only daughter and the youngest child of five. Her parents and her brothers always treated her as their favorite.
In 1896 the family moved to Chicago. Three years later they moved back to St. Louis where Agnes spent the rest of her childhood. She enjoyed her years in school and was an excellent student of mathematics. She also was quite skillful as a painter.
It was when Agnes went off to college that she first learned that women were not treated as equals. She didn't like being treated unequally but she tried not to notice it. After graduating from college she tried to get a job in her major field-physics. She soon found it was almost impossible for a woman.
Agnes spent a full year looking for a job. Finally she gave up in anger. She began writing letters of anger to various newspapers. An editor in New York liked her ideas very much. He asked her to do a series of stories on the difficulties that women had in finding a job. And there she began her great fight for equal rights for women.
