Produced by the muscular movements of insects called treehopper (角蝉), this imagined soundscape comes from vibrations(共鸣、振动)that flow across the surface of plants. But it is not at all like the familiar vocalizations of crickets(蟋蟀); instead, it’s something richer, more varied. Some sounds are song-like, others are similar to the noises of machines or musical instruments. The noise made from even a single plant may be “as noisy as a busy street”.In An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us, Pulitzer prize-winning science journalist Ed Yong explains that, on a real walk instead of this one we’ve imagined, humans would not be able to hear the treehoppers’ music without special equipment. In the company of scientists with a laser vibrometer(振动计), a device that changes the treehopper vibrations into sounds audible to human ears, Yong gets to hear them in the wild and in the laboratory. He is shocked by the attractive sounds.In this book that follows on from 2018’s I Contain Multitudes, Yong writes in a perfect balance of scientific severity and personal awe as he invites readers to grasp something of how other animals experience the world. Communicating through surface vibrations is a rather cool example that extends beyond treehoppers to elephants and spiders, and to this fact about frogs. Attuned to vibrations entering the eggs, frog hatches quickly if a snake shows up with a hard bite, but ignore rain, wind, footsteps and even an earthquake.My admiration for the book is, well, immense. Like many thousands of other people, I have relied throughout the course of COVID-19 on Yong’s reporting at The Atlantic as he cracked open the fast-changing world of pandemic science. Now, with An Immense World, Yong brings into beautiful focus a host of other animal sensory worlds that co-exist with ours, and how we may protect them.24. How does the soundscape come about according to paragraph 1?A. It comes from humans’ muscles.B. It arises from the vocalizations of crickets.C. It comes from an imaginable world.D. It arises from vibrations flowing across the surface of plants.25.Why can Yong hear the treehopper’s music?A. Because of a laser device.             B. Because of the surface of plants.C. Because of the nature of the insects.     D. Because of the special imaginable environment.26. What can we learn about An Immense World?A. It appeals to all kinds of peoples.          B. It is aimed at protecting the animals.C. It is scheduled to be published next year.    D. It describes a virtual world full of animals.27. What is the text?A. A news report.    B. A historical novel.   C. A book review.    D. A personal biography.CStanford University researchers have developed a device called a nature-inspired aerial grasper, or SNAG, which can be attached to a quadcopter drone (四轴无人机) to give it feet and legs like those of an eagle. When equipped with the device, the drone is able to fly around catching and carrying objects and perching (栖息)on various surfaces, according to a Stanford news release dated Dec. 1, 2021, describing the work.But copying the flexibility of birds wasn’t easy to do. The researchers shot videos of small parrots flying back and forth between special perches that contained sensors to measure the physical forces of landing, perching and takeoff.“What surprised us was that they did the same aerial military exercise, no matter what surfaces they were landing on,” one of the researchers, William Roderick, explained in the news release. “They let the feet handle the variability and complexity of the surface texture itself,” he said.Giving a drone similar abilities required technological feat. SNAG has a 3D-printed structure that imitates an eagle’s lightweight bones, and each of its legs is equipped with a motor for moving back and forth and a second one for grasping.Mechanisms in the robot’s legs are designed to absorb impact energy and passively change it into grasping force, the way that a bird’s muscles would. As a result, a drone equipped with the device can grasp something strongly in just 20 milliseconds. Once the robot’s feet are wrapped around a perch, its ankles lock and an accelerometer—a device that measures vibration-detects the landing and activates a balancing algorithm (算法)to stabilize it on the perch.Elsewhere, researchers at other institutions also have been working for years on giving drones the ability to land and hang onto something. As this 2019 Smithsonian article explains, being able to land in various places helps drones to conserve energy that would expend by having to remain in the air. That’s important, because the flight time of robotic aircrafts is limited by their battery power.28. What inspired the SNAG’s development?A. The way parrots perch. B. The military exercise.C. The 3D-printed technology. D. The eagle’s lightweight bones.29. What makes the drones’ grabbing something strongly so quickly possible?A. The powerful battery.B. Their ability to imitate parrots’ taking off.C. The application of advanced flying techniques.D. The mechanical devices modeling a bird’s muscles.30. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Flight time is not vital to the drones.B. After 2019, researchers quit efforts to improve flight time.C. Flight time has been a problem before this study.D. Researching the ability to land and hang onto something is meaningless.31. What is the most suitable title for the text?A. Drones, an application to the militaryB. Robotic drones, really like birdsC. Robotic drones, a comparison of birdsD. Quadcopter drones, advanced technologyDSince the beginning of the summer in 2022, China has been sweltering under the worst heatwave in decades. A number of people in Zhejiang, Henan, Jiangsu and Sichuan provinces were diagnosed with thermoplegia (热射病), the most severe form of heatstroke, and some even died of this disease. In a warming world, the hazards of heatwaves are increasing. According to a study, the number of deaths caused by heatwaves in China has increased rapidly since 1979, from 3,679 persons per year in the 1980s to15,500 persons per year in the 2010s. “Over the past four decades， the main drivers of the large increase in heatwave-related deaths in China are the rapid increase in the frequency of heatwaves, followed by population growth, population aging, and rising baseline mortality(基线死亡率),”said Prof. Huang Cunrui, a researcher from Tsinghua University. High temperatures would accelerate the loss in soil moisture (水分) and hurt the growth of corn, cotton, trees and fruits. What’s more, each additional degree of warming will increase crop losses to insects by 10-25 percent, threatening food security for billions of people. China has witnessed a range of extreme weather events, including heavy rainfall, flooding, tornadoes and record heatwaves this year. Meteorological officials said the country had an average temperature of 21. 3 degrees Celsius in June, 0. 9 degrees Celsius higher than the same period on average, and the highest record for the same period since 1961. Experts say that while extreme summer heat is not entirely new, these sorts of occurrences could be something that becomes a standard part of life, requiring people to start learning how to cope with heatwaves that may continue for the rest of summer and well into the future. Remember that even healthy, young athletes can be harmed by extreme heat, so every activity, indoors or outdoors, should be evaluated when extreme heat hits. There are some ways to stay safe during extreme heat events, such as drinking plenty of water, looking for shade or remaining in shade when outside, and avoiding cooking large meals that can add heat to your indoor environment.32. What does the underlined word “hazards” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Discussions            B. Studies.           C. Causes. D. Dangers.33. What is the main reason for the growing heatwave-related deaths in China?A. The aging of the population.B. The larger amount of outdoor workers. C. The increasing frequency of heatwaves.D. The rise in the number of the total population.34. What can we infer from paragraph 4?A. Rural areas suffer more from heatwaves than cities.B. China has witnessed the worst climate ever in 2022.C. High temperatures have negative effects on agriculture.D. Climate change contributes to the decline in insect species.35. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?A. Ways to deal with extreme heat.B. The trend of heatwaves in the future.C. The importance of keeping healthy in summer.D. Influences of global warming on the environment.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。Helping Your Teen Understand the Value of MoneyIt seems that there are more things for teens to spend money on than ever.

As long as we carefully observe and study, we will take inspiration from it. As the picture shows, there are two birds, one sleeping while the other with a worm in its mouth. This presents a well-known Chinese idiom “The early bird catches the worm”.The idiom reminds us of the importance of diligence. It is also a metaphor that preparation plays an important role on the road to success. Opportunities are always for those prepared minds, and only when we are well-prepared can we make achievements, attaining our goals.听力原文：Text 1W: What is your favorite kind of tea, Andrew?

The two dozen twists and turns of the stream provide daily water for each household, but the water system also helps keep the temperature inside the village as comfortable as possible. The village is arranged in the shape of an ox, with the nearby Leigang Hill as the head and two ancient trees at the entrance to the village as the horns. The four bridges that cross the Jiyin stream represent the legs, (19)and the houses of the village form the body. Inside the “body”, the Jiyin stream represents the intestines(肠) and Nanhu Lake is the belly. There are approximately 150 houses that date back to the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the architecture is said to be the best of its kind in China. One of the biggest houses that are open to visitors, Chenzhi Hall, also contains a small museum. Together with Xidi, Hongcun became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. (20) Scenes from the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were filmed in Hongcun.
