11、may depend on how much time you have and what you want to see the most. If you plan on visiting Yellowstone National Park for only a few days and want to experience some of the main attractions then West Yellowstone would be a good base. If you want to have the full park experience then perhaps lodg

12、ing (住宿) at Old Faithful would be a good choice. If you want to view the most wildlife, then we suggest the Northeast Entrance.When is the best time to visit the park?This depends on what your interests are. Spring has abundant wildlife, roaring waterfalls and wild weather. Summer has it all includi

13、ng the most crowds, so youd better get out early and eat your breakfast on the road! Fall is a special time of year. Everything seems to be declining including the crowds.

19、】细节理解题。根据How much is the entrance fee?部分中“$85-Private, non-commercial vehicle ($85-私人、非商业车辆)”可知，杰弗瑞在寒假期间与父亲和女儿自驾游黄石公园需要支付私家车入场费85美元。故选B项。【2题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线句中“In years past”和下文“Now”可推知，上下文描述了过去和现在的情况，结合下文“Now it is more restricted unless you can afford a snow-coach or guided snowmobile tour. (现在的限制更多了，

20、除非你能负担得起雪上马车或有导游的雪上摩托之旅)”中“more restricted”可推知，上下文比较了冬季游黄石公园受到限制的情况，所以，划线句中“In years past it was more economical to visit most of the park.”是指过去在冬季游黄石公园，大部分地方都是受到限制的，而现在限制更多了。故选A项。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据Can I get Cell and Wi-Fi?部分中“Free public Wi-Fi is available at Al-bright Visitor Center and at some park l

21、odges for registered guests. Cell service is extremely limited, with reception only available in or near major developed areas. In summer, service often reaches its limit in these areas. (阿尔布赖特游客中心和部分公园小屋为已登记的客人提供免费公共Wi-Fi。手机服务非常有限，只有在主要开发地区或附近才能接收到信号。在夏季，这些地区的服务常常达到极限)”可知，公园里的无线信号差强人意。故选A项。BOn Janu

22、ary 7th, 2022, David Bennett became the first person to have a heart transplanted successfully into him from a pig. On that occasion, mere operation success was the goal. This operation is a milestone for xenotransplantation (异种移植) the transfer of organs from other species to human patients.For deca

23、des, researchers have attempted to deal with xenotransplantations basic problem. This is that the human body, when it recognizes foreign tissue, tends to turn against it. In the case of pigs, the most important marker of foreignness is a sugar molecule (分子) called alpha-Gal. While this molecule does

24、 not exist in humans, antibodies to kill it do. So no transplant from a pig with alpha-Gal would last more than a couple of minutes in a human body. In 2003 pigs were produced with a changed genome so as to prevent the enzyme (酶) responsible for making alpha-Gal. This was a step in the right directi

25、on, but other barriers popped up.The pig for Davids operation had a genome changed in ten ways to increase the chances of success. Three genes had been removed to reduce the risk of a human antibody rejecting the organ. A fourth, a growth gene, had also been knocked out, to ensure the heart did not

26、enlarge after transplantation. And six human genes had been added to promote acceptance.There are other concerns. One is any unknown rejection mechanism. Another is the possibility that the organ may pass viruses to its new host. The pig in question was raised where there was no virus to reduce the

27、chance of that, but it remains a possibility.In theory, pigs can be raised to provide humans with any solid organ, but some will be more complex than others. Moreover, even if these barriers can be overcome, most researchers still acknowledge that increasing xenotransplantation to meet the worlds de

28、mand for organs may take decades. After this news, however, the chances that it will happen eventually have increased.4. What is the basic problem of xenotransplantation?A. The human body lacks alpha-Gal.B. The human body resists foreign tissues.C. The life of the transplanted organ is too short.D.

29、The enzyme is prevented from making alpha-Gal.5. Why was a growth gene removed in Davids case?A. Because it would change Davids genome.B. Because it would lead to heart enlargement.C. Because it would make the heart more acceptable.D. Because it would be recognized by Davids antibodies.6. What can w

30、e learn about the pig?A. It saved the patients life perfectly.B. It had a decreased number of genes.C. It had an unknown rejection mechanism.D. It was raised in a virus-free environment.7. What is the authors attitude towards the future of xenotransplantation?A. Optimistic.B. Indifferent.C. Disturbe

31、d.D. Uncertain.【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了全球首例异种移植手术成功，大卫贝内特成为第一个从猪身上成功移植心脏的人。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段关键句“For decades, researchers have attempted to deal with xenotransplantations basic problem. This is that the human body, when it recognizes foreign tissue, tends to turn against it.”（几十年

32、来，研究人员一直试图解决异种移植的基本问题。这就是当人体辨别出外来组织时，往往会抵抗外来组织。）可知，异种移植的基本问题是当人体辨别出外来组织时，往往会抵抗外来组织，由此可知，异种移植的基本障碍是人体抵抗（排斥）外来组织。故选B项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段关键句“A fourth, a growth gene, had also been knocked out, to ensure the heart did not enlarge after transplantation.”（第四个是生长基因，也被移除，以确保移植后心脏不会扩大。）可知，移除生长基因是为了确保移植后心脏不会扩大

33、。故选B项。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“The pig in question was raised where there was no virus to reduce the chance of that, but it remains a possibility.”（讨论中的那头猪是在没有病毒的地方饲养的，以减少感染的机会，但仍然有可能感染病毒。）可知，为了减少感染的机会，那头猪是在没有病毒的地方饲养的。故选D项。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“Moreover, even these barriers can be overcome, most resea

34、rchers still acknowledge that increasing xenotransplantation to meet the worlds demand for organs may take decades. After this news, however, the chances that it will happen eventually have increased.”（此外，即使这些障碍可以克服，大多数研究人员仍然承认，增加异种移植以满足世界对器官的需求可能需要几十年。然而，这一消息之后，最终发生的可能性增加了。）可知，作者认为，这次异种移植手术的成功，表明未来

35、异种移植以满足世界对器官的需求的可能性增加了，由此可知，作者对异种移植的未来持乐观态度。故选A项。CWhat do Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen, and Frodo all have in common with the heroes of ancient myths (神话)?Joseph Campbell studied myths from all over the world and published a book called “The Hero with a Thousand Faces”, retelling dozens of stories

The heros darkest hour then comes, when he faces death and possibl

46、y even dies, only to be reborn. As a result, the hero claims some treasure, special recognition, or power, which can vary between stories. After all that adventure, the hero returns to his ordinary world, but upgrades to a new level. Nothing is quite the same once you are a hero. (旅程开始于英雄收到一个神秘的信息，一

47、个邀请，或一个挑战。英雄步出平凡安稳的家门，展开冒险。在一些年长、聪明的人的帮助下，他解开了一个谜语，杀死了一个怪物，从陷阱中逃脱。然后，英雄最黑暗的时刻到来了，他面临死亡，甚至为了能够重生，必须先死过一次。结果，英雄获得了一些宝藏、特别的认可或力量，这些在不同的故事中有所不同。在所有的冒险之后，英雄回到了他的平凡世界，但他再也不是昔日吴下阿蒙)”可知，英雄的旅程是：接到冒险的召唤并受到智者的帮助踏上冒险之旅并经历一系列艰难的考验面对生死危机，获得重生和特殊能力回到平凡的世界，超越过去的自己，提升到新的水平。对应的正确顺序是。故选C。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The Heros

48、Journey myth exists in all human cultures and keeps getting updated because we humans reflect on our world through symbolic stories of our own lives. (英雄之旅存在于所有的文化中，并且不断地推陈出新。因为我们人类通过自身生活中极具象征性的故事，反映出所处的世界)”可知，英雄之旅的神话如此流行是因为它是反思我们的世界的一种方式。故选B。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段“You dont literally slay dragons or

49、 fight Voldemort, but you face problems just as scary. Joseph Campbell said, “In the cave you fear to enter lies the treasure you seek.”(你不需要真正地屠龙或对抗伏地魔，但你面临的问题同样可怕。约瑟夫坎贝尔说过：“在你害怕进入的洞穴里，藏着你所寻找的宝藏”)”以及倒数第二段“What is the symbolic cave then you fear to enter? Auditions (试镜) for the school play? Baseball

50、 tryouts? Love?(你害怕进入的象征性洞穴是什么？学校戏剧的试镜？棒球选拔赛？ 爱？)”可知，在你害怕进入的洞穴里，藏着你所寻找的宝藏，由此推知，作者认为“洞穴”是好的，只有进入这些你害怕进入的洞穴才能找到寻找中的宝藏。A项：We all need a “cave” to hide in face of danger(面对困难时，我们都需要一个“洞穴”来躲藏)与作者表述不符。故选A。【11题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合最后一段“You will certainly see it again. Also be sensitive to it in your own life.

51、Listen for your call to adventure. Accept the challenge. Conquer your fear and claim the treasure you seek. And then, do it all over again.(你一定会再看到它。在你自己的生活中也要对它保持敏感。倾听冒险的召唤。接受挑战。征服你的恐惧，得到你想要的宝藏。然后，再来一遍)”可知，文章倡导去冒险，接受挑战，征服恐惧。B项：Be Your Own Hero(做自己的英雄)可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选B。DAmerica was where all my mother

58、 of the European countries. A teacher was quoted as saying the little boy could also pronounce the names of the foreign cities correctly.“Whats the capital of Finland?” my mother asked me, looking at the magazine story.All I knew was the capital of California, because Sacramento was the name of the
