Hidden gardens in London

From nature reserves to community spaces, we’ve dug up some of London’s most secret gardens, where you’ll find pockets of splendid nature and forget about all your worries.

Queen’s Wood

Across the road from the better-known Highgate Wood, there is something more magical and quiet about Queen’s Wood— witness its hilly pathways through the mountain ash and cherry trees. It might be only a few hundred metres from Highgate tube station, but native bluebells and countless species of small animals make this a wonderful retreat.

Phoenix Garden

Behind Charing Cross Road this is a super spot for a leafy lunchtime break. Look out for frogs and sparrows, which are thriving thanks to an enthusiastic conservation initiative. The garden closed last autumn for redevelopment work but has reopened in time to take advantage of our long-awaited spell of improved weather.

Postman’s Park

A short walk from St Paul’s Cathedral lies one of London’s most touching monuments: George Frederic Watts’s Memorial to Heroic Self-Sacrifice. Within the quiet Postman’s Park, nestled beneath a roof, are just over 50 ceramic plaques（牌匾）, each honoring the memory of an ordinary person who lost their life trying to save others.

Red Cross Garden

Originally intended to give Southwark children a space to play, this Victorian garden has been restored to its original design, complete with pond, cottage, bandstand and formal borders. While relaxing in the restored bandstand, it’s hard to imagine the view back in 1887 when it was surrounded by workhouses and factories.

21. Which garden is close to a subway station?

A. Queen’s Wood. B. Phoenix Garden.

C. Postman’s Park. D. Red Cross Garden.

22. What can you do in Postman’s Park?

A. Take photos of old workhouses. B. Swim in the pond.

C. Learn stories about selflessness. D. Enjoy a band show.

23. What do Phoenix Garden and Red Cross Garden have in common?

A. They have got some repair work. B. They were surrounded by factories.

C. They will be temporarily closed. D. They have the same original design.

B

NFK Editors—October 14, 2021—Zara Rutherford is flying around the world by herself in a small plane. When she finishes her trip, which will take over two months, she’ll become the youngest woman to fly all the way around the globe by herself. She’s just 19 years old. Ms. Rutherford began her trip in Belgium on August 18. This trip is something she has dreamed about for a long time.

Ms. Rutherford has been learning to fly planes since she was 14 years old. Ms. Rutherford’s parents are both pilots, and they helped her practice. She got her pilot’s license in 2020 and has hundreds of hours of flying practice. She’s making this trip in a small two-seater plane called a microlight. One of the seats has been replaced with an extra gas tank, which will allow Ms. Rutherford to cover longer distances. The plane has had several other updates for safety, including a second radio, and satellite communications.

To follow her route, Ms. Rutherford needs to be able to see, since her plane can’t be guided using its instruments alone. That means she can’t fly at night or in bad weather. Ms. Rutherford is now in Nome, Alaska—the halfway point of her trip. While she’s had some delays and is a little behind schedule, she is upbeat. “As long as I’m home before Christmas, I’m content,” she says.

Ms. Rutherford plans to stay a night or two in each place to visit with schools and youth groups. She hopes to inspire young girls to explore areas like aviation (flying), science, mathematics, and engineering. As her father points out, currently, only about 5% of pilots are women.

24. What is Zara Rutherford’s long-held dream?

A. An independent flight around the world. B. Building a small plane.

C. A two-month self-driving travel in Belgium. D. Becoming the youngest pilot

25. What can we learn about Ms. Rutherford from paragraph 2?

A. She needs a guide. B. She is well prepared.

C. She is knowledgeable. D. She has lots of hobbies.

26. What does the underlined word “upbeat” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Reliable. B. Innocent. C. Elegant. D. Optimistic.

27. Why does Ms. Rutherford plan to visit schools and youth groups?

A. To learn more scientific knowledge. B. To celebrate the festival together.

C. To encourage other girls to aim high. D. To help her father make speeches.

C

Thousands of years of domestication have left dogs with a remarkable capacity to comprehend human speech, and new research reveals that the brains of our four-legged friends are even able to differentiate between languages. Appearing in the journal Neuroimage, the new study is the first to detect such an ability in any non-human animal.

To conduct their research, the study authors trained 18 pet dogs to lie motionless inside a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner so that their brain activity could be recorded while they listened to audio recordings of human speech. Two of the dogs involved in the study came from homes that spoke Spanish, while the remaining 16 belonged to Hungarian-speaking families.

While in the scanner, each dog listened to an excerpt (节选) from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince in both Spanish and Hungarian. They also heard scrambled (杂乱的) versions of these recordings that made no sense and sounded completely unnatural.

When examining the responses of the dogs’ brains to these recordings, the researchers noted that activity patterns within the animals’ primary auditory cortex (听觉皮层) differed depending on whether they heard actual speech or scrambled nonsense. This suggests that dogs are indeed able to tell the difference between speech and non-speech, regardless of the language spoken.

The researchers also found that this response to language was more pronounced in older dogs, leading them to conclude that longer exposure to human speech enables pet dogs to improve their language recognition skills.

In a statement, study author Attila Andie explained these findings indicate that “the capacity to learn about the regularities of a language is not uniquely human.” However, it remains to be seen “whether this capacity is dogs’ specialty, or general among non-human species.”

“Indeed, it is possible that the brain changes from the tens of thousands of years that dogs have been living with humans have made them better language listeners, but this is not necessarily the case.”

28. What is the requirement for the dogs in the study?

A. They must be smart. B. They can study languages.

C. They must keep still. D. They can train their partners.

29. How did the researchers get their findings?

A. By consulting language experts. B. By collecting clinical data.

C. By observing the dogs’ body movements. D. By analyzing the dogs’ brain activity.

30. What can we infer about the findings from Attila Andie’s explanation?

A. They have proved his assumption. B. They need further confirming.

C. They are in line with the former ones. D. They apply to non-human species.

31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Older Dogs Can Learn New Tricks

B. Dogs Are Good Language Learners

C. Older Dogs Are Humans’ Perfect Partners

D. Dogs Can Distinguish Different Languages

D

In 2007, the African Union announced an ambitious project—to plant the Great Green Wall (GGW), a band of trees that would stretch the length of the Sahel.

The GGW is an ecological restoration project designed by African people for African people. Heavy rains, droughts, wildfires and landslides have all become common throughout the world. But nowhere is quite like the Sahel. In this huge African region, climate change has materialized in a dramatic manner. In some cases, the severe conditions have left people with no option other than to migrate elsewhere to survive. It was with all of this in mind that the extraordinary, but heavily debated project was first put forward.

Fourteen years have passed since the initiative formally kicked off. The stated goal was to create a 15-kilometre-wide, 8, 000-kilometre-long green belt of trees and other plants that, by 2030, would span（跨越）the entire width of the Sahel, from Senegal to Djibouti. Overall, 100 million hectares（公顷）of land would be restored by 2030. Once completed, it was announced, the wall could end up capturing（俘获）250 million tonnes of carbon dioxide, while its creation and upkeep could create ten million jobs in rural areas.

Looking at the project as a whole, there’s still a long way to go. According to a status report by the UN Convention to Combat Desertification, about four million hectares of degraded land have been restored. This means that progress towards the 100 million hectares target stands at just four per cent.

“When we started restoring the soil, we realized the area at risk was much wider than we initially thought,” explains Elvis Paul Tangem, the African Union’s GGW coordinator. “We had few funds to push the initiative as much as we wanted to. There was skepticism among investors, who didn’t understand the project, but also among the African states themselves, which needed time to figure out if the GGW was a priority.”

32. What is the purpose of the GGW project?

A. To improve local ecology. B. To develop rural economy.

C. To predict climate patterns. D. To strengthen regional ties.

33. What do the statistics in paragraph 3 show of the initiative?

A. The service period. B. The total budget.

C. The targeted groups. D. The expected benefits.

34. How does Elvis Paul Tangem feel about the project?

A. Skeptical. B. Worried. C. Confident. D. Satisfied.

35. What message does the author intend to convey in the text?

A. African countries should stand together.

B. The progress of the GGW project is slow.

C. Fighting climate change is our top priority.

D. Natural disasters are worse than we thought.

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。

Studying smarter, not longer, matters now more than ever, with students in many countries having to manage their time and study more on their own. ____36____ The good news: Science points to ones that really work.

Use pictures. Pay attention to drawings, graphics, chart and other visual aids in your class materials, psychologist Mark McDaniel says. “____37____ And if there aren’t pictures, creating them can be really, really useful.”

Find examples. Abstract concepts can be hard to understand. It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something, psychologist Cynthia Nebel says. For instance, sour foods usually taste that way because they contain an acid.____38____ But if you think about a lemon or vinegar, it’s easier to understand and remember that acids and sour go together.

____39____ Psychologist Nate Komell “definitely did cram (临时抱佛脚)” before big tests when he was a student. He still thinks it’s a good idea to study the day before a big test. But research shows it’s a bad idea to cram all your studying into that day. Instead, allow time between study sessions and you’ll learn and remember material better.

Dig deeper. It’s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration. “It’s asking a lot of how and why questions about it,” Nebel says.____40____

Try adding just one new study skill each week or two. It may seem odd at first. But, by the time week two rolls around, it becomes a normal thing.

A. Reread books and notes.

B. Space out your studying.

CThey really boost your memory of the material.

D. Yet many students have never learned those skills.

E. In other words, don’t just accept facts at face value.

F. On its own, that concept might be hard to remember.

GIt’s like telling students to learn to swim by “just swimming.”

It was 4-year-old Darrin’s first chiropractic adjustment(脊椎矫正术). He was afraid, as most children are on their first visit to any ____41____.

But if you gain children’s ____42____ and take the time to develop good relationship, you can do anything with their complete ____43____. One of the ____44____ I find most useful is to show an interest in a child’s special toy. When you touch, hug and love their ____45____ toy, you open the door to their heart. I have given thousands of chiropractic adjustments to teddy bears, Barbie dolls and fire trucks—you name it, I’ve ____46____ it.

Darrin’s____47____, however, was different.

I had told Darrin’s mother to ____48____ his favorite toy, but when I ____49____ about it, she said, “Sorry, Dr. Stillwagon. Darrin’s favorite play toy is our upright vacuum sweeper(立式吸尘器), and I just couldn’t feel _____50_____ coming to the office with it.”

“Wait just a minute,” said. I went out, got our upright vacuum sweeper and _____51_____ the adjusting room. I introduced him to our vacuum sweeper,_____52_____him to play with it.

Our examination _____53_____ involves the use of a hand-held scanner to monitor the patient’s progress. I took the scanner and _____54_____ it the full length of the upright vacuum sweeper. I then placed the sweeper on the adjusting table and _____55_____ to adjust it. Darrin watched my every _____56_____ . I told him that the sweeper would soon feel _____57_____.

Darrin was next. Full of confidence, he sat on the chair for the scan, and then _____58_____ sat on the adjusting table. We had become _____59_____, and I had adjusted my _____60_____ upright vacuum sweeper!

【答案】    Time flies, and three years of high school life is coming to an end. I plan to go to a Medical University in the future and hope to make my own contribution in this field.

Inspired by the courageous medical staff who have emerged in the epidemic, I am determined to become a doctor and help patients, especially in difficult times like this. In order to experience the life as a doctor, I intend to work as a volunteer in a hospital during the summer vacation to learn more about routine of medical staff and knowledge of first aid.

To realize my dream, I will work harder.
