17、pment of young people!Learning an instrument: how do pupils choose?All our teachers are highly qualified and experienced musicians,and pupils can learn to play a wide range of instruments, from the keyboard to the drums(鼓). We have open days when new pupils who are unsure which instrument to choose

18、can come to the centre. They are able to speak to teachers about which instrument might be best for them, and they can also see and hear classes in action.Who is responsible for buying the instruments?Parents usually have to provide instruments. But parents of beginners are advised not to buy an ins

19、trument until they are told that a place is available. They should also find out from the teacher the most suitable type of instrument to get.When and where do lessons take place?Lessons are available in many schools, usually during the day. If there is no lesson available for a particular instrumen

20、t in a particular school, other arrangements can be made at one of our music centres for lessons on Saturday afternoons or weekday evenings.How are pupils taught?Pupils can learn in small groups, in classes or individually, depending on their needs. Small groups of three pupils have lessons that las

21、t thirty minutes. Class lessons last forty-five minutes and have at least ten pupils. Individual lessons are offered only to pupils who have some experience.Starting young: when can pupils begin?Children are never too young to become interested in music. We have special “Musical Youth” classes for c

22、hildren from the age of 3 to 8. These are designed to encourage young children to enjoy music through a variety of activities including singing, musical games, listening and movement. “Musical Youth” classes take place on Saturday mornings with groups of about 18 children. A parent or other adult mu

25、achersB. parentsC. musiciansD. pupilsBNenad Sestan was working in his office one afternoon in 2016, when he heard his lab members whispering with excitement over a microscope. He realized something beyond their expectations was happening.The researchers, at Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn

26、ecticut, had found electrical activity in brains taken from dead pigs. With that shocking result, Sestan realized what had started as a side project to find ways to better preserve brain tissue for research had changed into a discovery that could redefine our understanding of life and death.The exci

27、tement soon turned to concern, when the researchers thought they saw widespread, consistent electrical activity which can indicate consciousness( 意识 ). Sestan brought in a neurologist, who determined the readout was actually an error, but the possibility had frightened them.Sestan kept his cool and

28、immediately did two things: he shut down the experiment and contacted the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), as well as a Yale bioethicist(生物伦理学家). Over the next few months, experts discussed the potential ethical implications, such as whether the brains could become conscious and whether physi

29、cians needed to reconsider the definition of brain death.They submitted the work to Nature. But before the final paper was published, Sestan met sharp criticism from the press. Some even suggested that the researchers were engineering immortality(永生), or maintaining a room full of living brains in j

30、ars. Neither he nor his team wanted to discuss the results until the paper was out, but as their inboxes filled with concerns and anger from animal rights activists and futurists, Sestan became depressed. He felt all they could do, however, was to hold off on correcting public misunderstandings unti

31、l the expert review process had run its course.Since the paper was published in April, 2019, the team has been so busy fielding questions from the media and scientists that it hasnt performed any further experiments. Sestan wants to focus on his original questions and explore how long the brains can

32、 be maintained and whether the technology can preserve other organs.“We want to get outside opinion before we do anything,” Sestan says. “When you explore uncharted territory, you have to be extremely thoughtful.”34. What happened in the lab at Yale School of Medicine in 2016?A. A better method was

33、found to maintain brain tissue.B. Researchers discovered how to redefine brain death.C. Brains from dead pigs were accidentally discovered alive.D. Researchers arrived at the expected results of the experiment.35. Why did Nenad Sestan stop the experiment?A. He needed assistance with the final paper.

34、B. He spotted a major mistake in the final result.C. He was frightened by the possibility of failure.D. He was concerned about the related moral issues.36. What was peoples reaction towards Nenad Sestans experiment?A. The press were strongly opposed to the experiment.B. Some people supported the res

35、earch on immortality.C. Nobody wanted to discuss the final result in advance.D. The public took a positive attitude towards the experiment.37.How could we best describe Nenad Sestan?A. Responsible and reliable.B. Cooperative and creative.C. Determined and inspiring.D. Professional and cautious.CA bu

36、tterflys wings can have many jobs besides keeping the insect high up in the air. They may be used to attract mates, or to warn potential attackers to stay away. All of these roles, though, depend on their unchanging colouration. This plays into the idea that butterfly wings are dead tissue, like a b

37、irds feathers. In fact, thats not true. For example, in some species males wings have special cells releasing some chemicals which attract females.Nanfang Yu, a physicist at Columbia University, in New York, has been looking into the matter. Together with Naomi Pierce, a butterfly specialist at Harv

38、ard University, he has now shown, in a paper published in Nature Communications in February, 2020, that butterfly wings are, indeed, very much alive.In their experiments, the two researchers used a laser(激光) to heat up spots on the wings of dozens of butterfly species. When the temperature of the ar

39、ea under the laser reached 40C or so, the insects responded within seconds by doing things that stopped their wings heating up further. These actions included a butterfly turning around to minimize its profile to the laser, moving its wings up and down or simply walking away.Butterflies engaged in a

40、ll of these heat-minimising activities even when the researchers blindfolded them. That suggested the relevant sensors were on the wings themselves. Dr Yu and Dr Pierce therefore searched those wings for likely looking sensory cells. They found some, in the form of neurons(神经元) that were similar to

41、heat detectors known from other insects. They also uncovered disc-shaped cells that appeared to be similar to pressure-sensitive neurons. They guess that these are there to detect deformation of the winginformation an insect could use to control its flight pattern.The third discovery they made to co

42、ntradict the “dead wing” idea was that some butterfly wings have a heartbeat. A butterflys wings have veins(静脉). These carry a bloodlike liquid which, researchers have now found in males, shows a pulse(脉搏) of several dozen beats per minute. The source of this pulse appears to be the scent(气味) pad, a

43、 dark spot on the wings that produces the female-attracting chemicals. Apparently, this “wing heart” acts as a pump that helps bloodlikeliquid through the scent pad.In all their experiments simulating different environmental conditions, Dr Yu and Dr Pierce consistently found that, different parts of

44、 the wing are covered by different sorts of scales(鳞屑). In particular, tubes pass through scales over the scent pads. This improves their ability to spread heat away and helps keep the living parts of a butterflys wings alive.38. A birds feathers are mentioned in Paragraph 1 to.A. introduce the late

45、st research findings on a birdB. highlight the special feature of a birds feathersC. show common knowledge about butterfly wingsD. stress the difference between a butterfly and a bird39. What can we learn from Dr Yu and Dr Pierces experiments?A. Butterfly wings are complicated living organs.B. Butte

46、rfly wings have little reaction to external heat.C. The scent pads on some male butterfly wings are their hearts.D. Heat-minimising activities help detect deformation of the wings.40. What is the function of scales over the scent pads?A. Attracting mates.B. Increasing blood flow.C. Covering powerful

47、 tubes.D. Producing the cooling effect.41. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Seeing Is BelievingB. More Than Meets The EyeC. Nothing Seek, Nothing FindD. Fine Feathers Make Fine BirdsDFact or Fiction?Non-fiction can be broken down into many categories. One category is

48、 literary non-fiction, which is still based in fact but employs some of the storytelling elements that fiction uses. Literary non-fiction includes a type of autobiography(自传) called memoir. Memoir most often focuses on a certain period of the authors life. It is, by definition, rooted in truth. Stil

49、l, people sometimes question whether memoir should be categorized as non-fiction at all.As non-fiction, memoir is intended to be factual. Is this really the case, though, considering memoir relies on human memory? One classic study, led by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus, showed how easily an intervie

50、wers choice of wording can influence an eyewitnesss account of a traffic accident. It is therefore reasonable to wonder whether memoir should continue to be branded as non-fiction.Certainly, human memory can be unreliable. However, a memoir author is undoubtedly writing about significant and impactf

51、ul life events. Memories of such events are actually morereliable than others. Studies show that the more influential an event is, the more accurately people recall the details. As an emotionally charged event unfolds, the brain activity changes in a way that amplifies small details. This activity h

52、elps build a more precise and accurate memory.Of course the brain is not a camera that can “save” any memory with perfect accuracy. But if memoir is questionable due to the imperfections of the human mind, then critics will have to tackle non-fiction more broadly. All writers are using their memorie

53、s when they create, and moreover, they are relying on the memories of others. Journalists conduct interviews to tell a news story and history writers depend on the accuracy of accounts from long ago. Yet they all rightfully fall under the umbrella of non-fiction.Some people may doubt memoir not beca

54、use they mistrust human memory, but because they mistrust the authors morality. Critics may suspect an author of making up events. However, there is no reason to be suspicious of memoir authors intentions. Writing a factual memoir that appeals to readers has the potential to be profitable for the au

55、thor, and there is no motivation for a memoir writer to knowingly change or beautify the truth.Looking beyond the authors own life events, memoir can inform readers about the world in the same way that other non-fiction can. Memoir has a way of relaying facts about anything from an occupation to bri

56、ef fashion trends, all of it meaningful to the author.42. The author introduces the topic in Paragraph 1 by_.A. illustrating why it is important to talk about memoirB. listing some interesting facts and features of memoirC. defining key terms that are discussed later in the passageD. making a compar

57、ison between autobiography and memoir43. What does the underlined word “amplifies” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Collects.B. Ignores.C. Enlarges.D. Absorbs.44. We can learn from the passage that_.A. critics argue that a news story by a journalist is fictionB. a memoir authors memory can be influen

58、ced by the intervieweesC. memoir cant show readers facts about what an author experiencedD. emotional moments can cause the creation of more detailed memories45. According to the passage, the author believes.A. the most profitable memoirs are those shown to be the most factualB. many authors are unt

59、rustworthy, although many memoirs are fact-basedC. memoir is rightfully categorized under the umbrella of literary non-fictionD. memory is too unreliable for memoir to be considered a type of non-fiction第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。What Your Nose KnowsYour se

60、nse of smell enriches your experience of the world around you. Different scents can change your mood or transport you back to a distant memory. Your ability to smell also plays a key role in your health. 46 The things we smell are actually the tiny molecules(分子) released by substances all around us.

61、 When we breathe in these molecules, they stimulate specialized sensory cells high inside the nose. 47 But a given molecule can stimulate a combination of these receptors, creating a unique representation in the brain. We perceive that representation as a smell. 48 A stuffy(不通气的) nose or a harmless

62、growth in the nose can block air and thus scents from reaching the sensory cells. Certain medications, like some blood pressure pills, can change smell, but these effects are usually temporary. Your smell should come back once youve recovered or stopped the medication. But some things can cause a lo

63、ng-lasting loss of smell. A head injury or virus, for example, can sometimes damage the nerves related to smell. 49 According to Dr. Davangere Devanand, an expert on neurodegenerative(神经变性的) diseases and smell loss, the main reason appears to be that the functioning of the brain regions involved in

64、smell and memory becomes damaged as we grow older.But problems with your ability to smell may be more than normal aging. They can sometimes be an early sign of serious health conditions, such as Parkinsons disease or Alzheimers disease. Devanands group is studying the relationships between smell dys

65、function and certain disease.Researchers are also looking for ways to avoid smell loss. Some studies suggest that smell training may help you improve your ability to distinguish and identify scents. 50 But the question remains as to whether and how this might work.A. Many things can cause smell loss

66、.B. People may have lost their ability to smell before they notice it.C. Each of these sensory cells has only one type of scent receptor.D. It may improve your brains ability to interpret low levels of scents.E. As people get older, many of them couldnt identify certain kind of smell.F. If your abil

67、ity to smell declines, it can affect your physical well-being and everyday safety.G. And with age, there is a decline in the ability to smell to some extent in the nose, but much more in the brain itself.第三部分：书面表达（共两节，35 分）第一节（15 分）假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。你的美国笔友 Jim 对中国文化十分感兴趣, 你在英文 报纸 China Daily 上看到 “中华文化表
