It’s a popular belief that fish can’t remember anything for longer than seven seconds． It may seem sad to think that they don’t remember what they’ve eaten or where they’ve been, and they don’t know you or any of their friends—every moment in their life would be like seeing the world for the first time．

But don’t be so quick to feel sorry for them． A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think． In fact, certain kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago, BBC reported．

In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids（丽鱼科鱼）to go to a certain area of their tank（鱼缸）to get food． They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again．

This suggested that they could remember their past experiences． Researchers used computer software to watch the fish’s movements． They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food．

In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory． An earlier study showed that they behaved offendedly in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights． But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence（证据）．

“If fish are able to remember that a certain area has safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger,” lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science．

24． From the first three paragraph, the writer develops the article by________．

A． giving different opinions                                      B． making a survey

C． showing the same feeling                                      D． sharing some stories

25． The underlined word “offendedly” has the closest meaning to ________．

A． sadly                          B． madly                         C． silently                       D． properly

26． What Trevor Hamilton said in the last paragraph tells us ________．

A． it’s easy for fish to find a place with safe food

B． it’s dangerous for fish to fight for their friends

C． it’s necessary for fish to remember their home

D． it’s important for fish to have a good memory

(C)

“I wish I had straight hair”; “I’d like to be taller”． At times, we all want to look a bit more like someone else． However, the pictures we see on TV and social media can give us improper ideas about how our bodies “should” look． The truth is that everybody is different—and that’s a good thing． Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence．

Body confidence is when someone accepts and behaves kindly towards their body． That includes our size and shape skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities． Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research (CAR), says that having body confidence is “about being accepting of your body and what it does for you”．

If you feel positively (积极地) about your body, you are more likely to take care of it． Research has even shown that you are more likely to take part in activities and perform well in school． However, feeling agitated about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down． Parnell says that the cost of trying to achieve the “perfect” appearance is high． She says, “If you’re spending a lot of time trying to look a certain way, you will have less time to spend with friends and to make important memories．”

It’s important to remember that everybody is different． To develop a positive body image, Parnell says, “Try to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies． Try not to pay too much attention to appearance． Instead, think about what your body does for you; do your legs make you run really fast?” She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep． Remember that you are more than how you look．

27． The writer thinks that the pictures on TV and social media ________．

A． are perfect for people to follow                             B． may spread wrong ideas of looks

C． imply everyone is different                                   D． show people how to behave kindly

28． Jade Parnell will agree that you should ________．

A． accept your body as it is                                       B． avoid talking about others’ bodies

C． spend more money on your appearance                   D． remember what you used to be like

29． Paying much attention to achieving the “perfect” look may lead to ________．

A． having more wonderful experiences                       B． more time for looking after our body

C． having more fun with friends                                D． less time for something more important

30． What is the main purpose of the passage?

A． To encourage readers to take more exercise．         B． To remind readers not to eat too much food．

C． To lead readers to build up body confidence．        D． To advise readers to treat their friends well．

(D)

Now, the Law of the Jungle says that if there is a disagreement about the right of a man’s cub(幼崽) to be part of the Pack(兽群), he must be spoken for by at least two members of the Pack who are not his father and mother．

“Who speaks for this man’s cub?” asked the leader of the wolf Pack Akela． There was no answer． Mother Wolf got ready for a fight, her last fight．

There is only one non-wolf allowed at the Pack Council, a sleepy brown bear called Baloo． Baloo teaches the wolf cubs the Law of the Jungle． He is accepted by the wolves because he eats only nuts and roots and honey． Now Baloo stood up on his hindquarters(后腿) and shouted．

“I speak for the man’s cub． Let him run with the Pack, and become part of the Pack with the others I can teach him the Law of the Jungle．”

“We need another one,” said Akela． “Baloo speaks for the man’s cub, and he is the teacher of our young cubs． Who speaks besides Baloo?”

A black shadow came into the circle． It was Bagheera(美洲豹) the Black Panther． Everybody knew Bagheera, and nobody wanted to make him angry．

“Akela, and the wolf Pack,” he shouted． “The Law of the Jungle says that a cub can be saved if someone pays a price for him． Now I can give you one fat recently killed bull, if you accept the man’s cub according to the Law． Is it difficult to decide?”

Mowgli, the man’s cub, was still very interested in the stones, and he did not notice when the wolves came and looked at him one by one． At last they all came down the hill for the dead bull, and only Akela, Bagheera, Baloo, and Mowgli’s wolf family were left． The tiger Shere Khan roared all night． He was angry because the wolves accepted Mowgli in the Pack．

“It was a good decision,” said Akela． “Men and their cubs are very wise． He may be a help in time．”

“Yes, a help in time of need; for no one can hope to lead the Pack forever,” said Bagheera．

“Take him away,” he said to Father Wolf, “and teach him like the other wolf cubs．”

—From Mowgli’s Brothers

31． Who spoke for the man’s cub at last?

A． Shere Khan and Akela．                                       B． Mother Wolf and Father Wolf．

C． Bangheera and Baloo．                                        D． Mowgli and young wolves．

32． How did Bagheera help Mowgli to be accepted by the Pack?

A． By teaching him like the other wolf cubs．            B． By giving the Pack one fat killed bull．

C． By fighting with wolves and Shere Khan．             D． By helping Akela kill the tiger Shere Khan．

33． Why was the tiger Shere Khan angry?

A． Because he really wanted Mowgli to be in the Pack．

B． Because all the animals in the Pack laughed at him．

C． Because Mowgli was finally accepted by the wolves．

D． Because Father Wolf wanted to ask him to go away．

34． Which is the right order of what happened in the story?

①Father Wolf taught Mowgli like other wolf cubs．

②Akela asked if anyone would speak for the cub．

③The tiger Shere Khan roared all night angrily

④The other wolves looked at Mowgli one by one．

⑤The Law of the Jungle are accepted by most animals．

A． ②④⑤③①               B． ⑤②③④①                C． ②⑤④③①                D． ⑤②④③①

35． What can we infer(推断) according to the passage?

A． Mowgli might help the wolf Pack later．

B． Baloo taught the wolf cubs the Law of the Jungle．

C． Mother Wolf didn’t want to keep the man’s cub．

D． Everyone in the jungle was afraid of Shere Khan．

阅读与回答问题。

The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics came to an end successfully on the twentieth of February last year． A beautiful picture of willow branches appeared at the closing ceremony． The elegant dancers holding shining willow branches gathered on the stage to say goodbye to the friends afar．

In ancient China, willow branches were often used as a gift to friends and family members who would leave． Do you know why willow branches are a symbol of saying goodbye?

One reason is that willow trees are strong． They can live in any soil, wet or dry, north or south． Because of this special feature, when saying goodbye to loved ones, giving a willow branch is a way to tell them you hope they will easily get used to their new living environment．

Another reason is that, in Chinese, the pronunciation for the willow tree “柳” is similar to the character “留”． So giving a willow branch in ancient China was like asking the others to stay．

It’s said this custom became popular during the Han Dynasty． At that time, Baqiao, a bridge in Chang’an, was a common place to say goodbye． People often stopped there and handed willow branches to people who are going to depart．

Willow branches, as a symbol of saying goodbye, were often mentioned in poems, especially at the time of the Tang and Song dynasties．
