17、ishers walk into dark waters in search of mullet (鲻鱼) On their own, it would be tricky to find the silvery fish. But the humans get help from an unusual partner: wild bottlenose dolphins.With nets in hand, the fishers patiently wait as their cetacean (鲸类的) partners drive the fish toward the shore. A

18、 signal from the dolphinsusually a deep diveindicates when they should cast their nets. This fishing partnership has passed down through the generations, lasting for more than a century.While researchers knew humans profited from this pairing, they couldnt confirm whether it benefited the dolphins.

19、Now, in a new study in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers suggest cetaceans that hunt with humans have more chances to live than those that dont.“Human-wildlife cooperation in general is a rare phenomenon at a global scale.” says Mauricio Cantor, a biologist at Oregon State

20、 University and leader of the study. “Usually humans gain the benefit, and nature pays the cost. But this interaction has been happening for over 150 years.”Fishers were more successful when they worked with the dolphins. When dolphins were present, the fishers were 17 times more likely to catch pre

21、y (猎物) and netted nearly four times more mullet when they timed their casting with the cetaceans signals. Eighty-six percent of all 4.955 mullet caught during the study period came from “synchronous (同时的) interactions”when the allies organized their actions perfectly with one another. The study also

22、 revealed dolphins hunting with humans had a 13 percent increase in survival rate over other dolphins. These cooperative dolphins are more likely to stay near the shore, reducing their chance of entanglement (缠绕) in illegal fishing equipment. Besides, the dolphins can take some fish directly from th

23、e fishers harvest.24. What do the first two paragraphs talk about concerning Brazilian fishers?A. They trick dolphins into fishing for them.B. They harvest more fish with dolphins help.C.

To show a unique human-dolphin relationship.C. To applaud for development in fishing research.D. To encourage fishers to better draw on dolphi

26、ns.CWhen reading, my mother likes to slice a paragraph or a sentence out and attach it to the wall of her kitchen. She picks boring sentences that puzzle me. But I prefer copying favorite bright lines into a journal in soft, gray No. 2 pencil, word by word.She doesnt know any of this. Theres nothing

27、 shocking: for our chatting. we seldom begin certain conversations though we talk on the phone weekly, sometimes making each other laugh so hard that I choke and she cries. But what we dont say could fill up rooms. Fights with my father. Small failures in school. Anything that really upsets us.My mo

28、ther has never told me “I love you, Lisa.”as if the four-word absence explains who I amso I carry it with me, like a label on me. The last time she almost spoke the words was two years ago, when she called to tell me a friend had been in hospital. I said, “I love you, Mom.” She stopped for a while a

29、nd then said, “Thank you.” I havent said it since, but Ive wondered why my mother doesnt until Ive found a poem that supplies words for the blank spaces I try to understand in our conversations:Dont fill up on bread. I say absent-mindedly. The servings here are huge.My son, middle-aged, says: Did yo

30、u really just say that to me?What he doesnt know is that when were walking together, I desire to reach for his hand.Its humble, yet heartbreaking. After copying it down in my journal, I emailed it to mom, adding “This poem makes me think of you.” My mother doesnt read poetryor at least, she doesnt t

31、ell me, and I felt nervous clicking “Send”.She never mentioned the poem. But the next time I went home for vacation, I noticed something new in the kitchen fixed to an antique board: the poem. The board hung above the heater, the warmest spot in the kitchen. The poem still hangs there. Neither my mo

32、ther nor I have ever spoken about it. 28. Whats the function of paragraph 1?A. To stress the theme. B. To establish the setting.C. To represent the characters. D. To create the atmosphere.29. Which of the following best describes the mother daughter relationship?A. Shaky. B. Distant. C. Reserved. D.

33、 Intense.30. Why did the author send the poem to her mom?A. It reminded her of moms love.B. She wanted to apologize to mom.C. It suited moms taste of literature.D. She needed an interpretation from mom.31. What does the poem mean to mom?A. A memory of golden days.B. Daughters gratefulness to her.C.

34、A decoration in the plain kitchen.D. Daughters understanding of her.DAmong my friends, one topic seems to dominate our conversations: bones. It makes sense, given that 20 percent of American women over 50 have osteoporosis (骨质疏松) and that more than half have bone loss. For men, the figures are lower

35、: 4 percent and a third. Worldwide, one out of three women over 50 and one out of five older men will develop a fracture (骨折). Another reason for the endless argument about bone problems is mass confusion over how best to strengthen your bones and whether diet really makes a difference.Diet research

36、 is always messy, and study results on nutrition and bone health havent been consistent. But gradually some clarity is emerging. As we draw up resolutions for what to eat, its useful to look at new data on vitamin D. Calcium is the key clement for building bones, and vitamin D helps to absorb calciu

37、m from the food we cat, so doctors often recommend D supplements (补充剂) to make up for age-related bone loss.But a recent study found that taking D supplements for five years did not reduce the rate of fractures in seniors. That result built on earlier findings, led by the same team, that these suppl

38、ements do not improve bone density (密度).“Food and sun exposure likely provide enough vitamin D for healthy adults,” says Meryl LeBoff, who led the study.What does help maintain strong bones for all of us? The easy answer is food high in calcium, such as milk and tofu. Getting it from food is best, L

39、eBoff says, “because there are so many other nutrients (营养物质), and you have a more continuous absorption than with D supplements.”The other key element of bone health involves calories out rather than calories in. Weight-bearing exercise stimulates bone formation throughout life. So while focusing o

40、n better nutritional choices, add more exercise to your daily menu.32. What do the statistics in paragraph 1 emphasize?A. The seriousness of bone problems.B. The concern about senior citizens.C. The confusion about strengthening bones.D. The importance of having a balanced diet.33. What does the und

41、erlined sentence in paragraph 2 imply?A. Diet research is no longer a challenge.B. Weve made resolutions to study diets.C. Findings on bone health prove to be similar.D. We begin to agree on ways to keep bones healthy.34. What can be inferred from the recent study?A. People can absorb vitamin D in f

42、ood easily.B. The findings go against LeBoffs earlier ones.C. D supplements play a minor role than expected.D. Fractures are linked with weight-bearing exercise.35. What is a suitable title for the text?A. A recipe for better bones B. Your bones cry!C. The magic of D supplements D. Vitamin D wins!第二

It was a struggle to find

44、the car park, let alone explore the huge campus. Although we knew she had flatmates and phone apps to get her to ft in, the challenge ahead was clear- -to find her way in an unfamiliar world. 37 In a recent study, volunteers walked around a virtual forest environment. Then some of them took the same

45、 walk again, while others explored a different forest. 38 According to the researchers, that was because exploring the new environment stimulated their dopamine (多巴胺) systemsetting up their brains for memorizing things. Thus, they scored higher.So leaving home to study makes perfect sense. 39 But we

46、 may all be able to gain some of the benefits, even if its just by stimulating our senses and challenging our thinking skills. Here are three things to try: Go somewhere new to tackle an upcoming learning tasklike memorizing a speech in the library, or revising for an exam in a parkand take an unfam

47、iliar route to get there. 40 To warm yourself up for learning, picture a city you know well, but imagine youre tapped in a part of it that youve never visited. Then try to visualize exactly how youll get out. Play video games that get you moving through new landscapes. Then see whether it improves y

48、our success with other learning tasks, like practising a dance or mastering phrases for a foreign trip. A. Get lost in your imagination.B. Prepare yourself for a city tour.C. But exploring places as such is beneficial to memory.D. People prove to be more adaptable after new experience.E. The latter

49、group performed better in memory tests straight after.F. There are new friends to meet and new responsibilities to accept.G. Young minds seem to gain most from being in strange surroundings.第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分)第一节 (共15小题; 每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。There was an oak tree in
