3、 elsewhere have helped make the holiday a travel mini-season all its own.New Orleans Home to year-round cemetery walks, New Orleans is among the cities that naturally harmonize with Halloween.

4、oats devoted to themes like werewolves and vampires. Float riders throw locally made candies to the crowd. New Orleans hosts plenty of after-event-parties, but the procession itself draws all ages in costume.Whitby, England This picturesque town on Englands Yorkshire coast is considered to be the ho

5、me of Dracula, though in a different way. Bram Stoker spent just a month in Whitby, but those four weeks in July and August 1890 were important in the creation of his most famous book, “Dracula”, which was published in 1897. Whitby celebrated the 125th anniversary of Stokers visit in 2015, but this

6、year you can see the skeletal remains of Whitby Abbey illuminated throughout the final week of October. Salem, MassachusettsHome to the infamous witch trials of the early 1690s, it should come as no surprise that this town is a hotbed for Halloween activity. One way Salem builds on its spectral past

7、 is with the nearly month-long festival of the Dead. Events starting from mid-October this year include psychic readings, mourning-themed tea and on Halloween night, a witches gathering. Orlando, Florida The home of Disney World and Universal Studios goes all-out with huge Halloween events. Universa

11、ange in age from early adolescence to early 30s, but in a sport that embraces youth, there is one who stands out. At 8 years old, Sky Brown, would be the youngest skater, male or female, ever to compete at this series.She is known to some a minor star of the viral age. When her first video was poste

12、d to YouTube, Sky initially gained a little internet fame as a premature and level-headed 4-year-old highly intelligent, well-spoken beyond her years, hugely talented, and yet grounded. Four years later, it was announced that she would be competing at Huntington Beach. Still, the question remains: I

13、s she truly ready, or will this be another case where reality comes crashing down hard on all the hype?And then, it turns out to be anything but. Sky goes out and presents one surprise after another. Commentators Neal Hendrix and Chris Pastras are left in awe, “Half of the pros cant do.” The only th

14、ing that makes the prodigy look like a kid is her size. In every other regard, she holds her own with skaters 10 and 20 years her senior. Before the competition at Huntington, Sky was a curiosity. After, she is a competitor.Skys first memory of a skateboard is seeing her father, Stuart, doing a few

15、tricks in front of the family home. “It always looked really fun,” says Sky. “I just kept begging to try it.” Sky progressed quickly, although she never had a formal coach. Somehow she just had the knack. Every movement, every shift in weight, every push and pull of body on board, she absorbed. Then

16、, she did it herself.“You get so close to making it,” she says of her process, “and think youre about to land it, and then it takes you 100 more times. Im always saying to my parents, Just one last try.” If anyone was pushing, striving to get better, it was Sky herself, learning new tricks the same

Her father exerts a strong influence on her.27. What is the best title for the text?A. A Rocky Road Leads to Internet Fame B. A Strong Competitor

20、Stands out from CrowdC. An 8-year-old Skater Amazes the World D. A Wonder Shows at the Pro Skate Park Series CIn 1992, Teen Talk Barbie was released with the controversial voice fragment, “Math class is hard.” While the toys release met with strong public reaction, this underlying assumption persist

21、s, spreading the myth that women do not thrive in science, technology, engineering and mathematic (STEM) fields due to biological inadequacies in math aptitude. However, in 2019 Jessica Cantlon at Carnegie Mellon University led a research team that comprehensively examined the brain development of y

22、oung boys and girls and found no gender difference in brain function or math ability. Cantlon and her team conducted the first neuroimaging study to evaluate biological gender differences in math aptitude of young children. Her team used functional MRI（核磁共振）to measure the brain activity in 104 young

23、 children (3-to-10-year-old; 55 girls) while watching an educational video covering early math topics, like counting and addition. The researchers compared scans from the boys and girls to evaluate brain similarity. In addition, the team examined brain maturity by comparing the childrens scans to th

24、ose taken from a group of adults (63 adults; 25 women) who watched the same math videos.After numerous statistical comparisons, Cantlon and her team found no difference in the brain development of girls and boys. In addition, the researchers found no difference in how boys and girls processed math s

25、kills and were equally engaged while watching the educational videos. Finally, boys and girls brain maturity were statistically equivalent when compared to either men or women in the adult group.Cantlon said she thinks society and culture are likely steering girls and young women away from math and

26、STEM fields, as previous studies show that families spend more time with young boys in play that involves spatial cognition（空间认知）. “Typical socialization can make worse small differences between boys and girls that can snowball into how we treat them in science and math,” Cantlon said. “We need to b

27、e aware of these origins to ensure we arent the ones causing the gender inequities.”However, this project is focused on early childhood development using a limited set of math tasks. Cantlon wants to continue this work using a broader scope of math skills, such as spatial processing and memory, and

28、follow the children over many years.28. What can we infer about the toys release?A. It has raised a storm of applause.B. Girls perform no worse than boys in math.C. Math is a subject difficult to every one of us.D. Women are born with insufficient math abilities.29. What can we learn from the study

29、conducted by Cantlon?A. Boys process math skills more quickly than girls.B. Boys and girls have similar brain in math abilities.C. Boys and girls have similar interest in math. D. Adults have better brain than children in math.30. What will Cantlon most likely agree with?A. Parents should lengthen t

30、he time spent with girls.B. Society is causing a greater gender difference in math abilities. C. Culture plays a leading role in childrens brain development. D. We should cultivate boys and girls math abilities equally.31. How will Cantlon further her research?A. By using a wider range of math skill

31、s. B. By involving a broader scope of subjects.C. By increasing the complexity of math tasks.D. By following the children until their adulthood. DJonathan Agnew recently described “unofficial interviews” as those where you agree that its “between you and I”. And a Times journalist wrote about someon

32、e who had “made Jenny and I feel so welcome”. They are both intelligent people with the ability to express ideas fluently and logically. And yet they wrote “I” where they meant “me”.Its happening more and more. We are scared of the mistake like “Terry and me went to the pub”. Weve all been taught th

33、at it should be “Terry and I went to the pub”. Plus weve heard the Queen say “my husband and I” a lot. So we begin to use “and I” even when it should be “and me”.But my point here is not to support the correct usage. Its the opposite: I want to reject the idea that theres such a thing as “correct” E

34、nglish at all. Language isnt like maths, where you can show that two plus two is four. Language has no fundamental rights and wrongs, only conventions. You cannot definitively prove that any are “right” and others “wrong”.Sometimes correct language sounds absurd. Look at Ofsted (Office for Standards

35、 in Education, Childrens Services and Skills) who came up with a new rule. Primary school children now have to be taught that “inverted commas” is right, while “speech marks” is wrong. You and I know that those terms are interchangeable. And the child who looks at those marks on the page can see tha

36、t both make perfect sense. Thats because a primary school child is more intelligent than the Ofsted turkey who came up with this rule.As the teacher who told me about the ludicrous rule pointed out, there is no doubt that in a few years time, the “incorrect” term will become the “correct” one. But t

37、he truly horrible thing about an education system like this is that it destroys childrens love of language. It tells them they have to worry about rules, instead of encouraging them to read and write for its own sake. Let them read for fun and theyll absorb the rules or conventions anyway. Have them

38、 shaking in fear about English tests, and youll increase their insecurity about getting language “right”.Then one day that insecurity will have them saying “and I” even though they mean “and me”.32. Why do people use “and I” when it should be “and me” according to the text?A. The Ofsted sets a rule.

39、 B. “and I” is the correct English.C. The Queen makes a similar mistake. D. People feel insecure about using “and me”.33. What can we learn from paragraphs 3 and 4?A. Rules benefit childrens language learning.B. Language learning is more complicated than maths.C. Language is based on commonly accept

40、ed rules.D. A primary school child is smarter than the Ofsted.34. What does the underlined word “ludicrous” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Influential. B. Particular. C. Conventional. D. Ridiculous.35. Which of the following best describes the authors attitude towards the correct English?A. Critical. B. Obj

41、ective. C. Favourable. D. Indifferent.第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Many people wonder what they can do to become well-rounded and competitive while increasing their rate of success. An often overlooked yet simple way to improve is to increase your knowledge by being

42、 a self-starter. 36 Rid yourself of assumptions and convictions so that you can be open and receptive to new information. This at times may even contradict what you have always believed to be true. You will eventually come across information that challenges your worldview. Rather than remaining rest

43、ing in your comfort zone, use this time to stop, reflect and shed light on these ideas in a way that can develop and expand your vision.After the mind has been ready, the next step is application. Create a to-learn list just as you would a to-do list. Learning information you can utilize in your dai

44、ly life is very important to having a continuous desire to further advance your education. 37 Reading a book on automobile repair isnt the same as physically changing the oil or tire on your car. Reading about art isnt the same as picking up a brush. If your knowledge can be directly applied in a fu

45、nctional and fun fashion, put it into practice! 38 Surround yourself with like-minded individuals and try to always take something valuable away from your daily interactions. Many people are professionals in their field and have valuable information and insight to share. 39 Never be too prideful, fo
