It was a perfect summer morning on the beach in Rio De Janeiro. A man set up his umbrellas and chair near the water and was ready to read his book. Just then, when he looked toward the sea, he noticed a small shape that came out of the water. It slowly made its way out onto the sand and began to flap its wings. It was obviously feeble and tired.
When the creature was just a few feet away, the man couldn't believe his eyes. A penguin? Penguins don't belong to Rio. The mans was amazed. He looked around to see if there was anyone else this strange sight.
A jogger soon appeared, followed by another. They stopped and stared. It was clear that the penguin was having trouble breathing. The first jogger looked at the sea and said, "Poor fellow, so far away form home. "
The penguin fell to its side. It had swum 2, 000 miles, trying to find the tiny fish that penguins like to eat. Why did the penguin need to travel so far? Perhaps it was confused by moving ocean currents and temperatures—common effects of global warming. The penguin needed help. It would not survive on the hot sand.
One of the joggers phone for help, and soon some firemen arrived. The man was relieved that the penguin would soon be safe, although he felt a little sad, too.
The event on the beach at Rio happened some time ago. It was only the beginning of penguin migration to Brazil. Since that time, hundreds of penguins have appeared on the coasts of Brazil. They come all the way from Patagonia and the Straits of Magellan, southern parts of South America. They land on the sands very tired and starving, and many of them die. Some are shipped or flown back to colder waters farther south.
Perhaps the experience of the penguins will help us better understand the serious effect of human activity on climate change and on the condition of our planet.

C. Energy from the sun. D. Sea ice decreasing.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Beaches in Brazil. B. A Penguin's Life.
C. The Penguin of Brazil. D. Effects of Global Warming.
D
A recent study showed that the experiences children have in their first few years are important. These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion connections in the brain of a three-year-old child.
Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at telling different sound patterns. The researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu—ba—ba. This is the pattern "A-B—B". Another order was mu—ba—ge. This is the pattern "A-B—C". The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the "A—B-B" pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive(敏感) to where it occurred in the order.
Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the base of words and grammar, "Position is key to language, " she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: 'John caught the bear' is very different from 'The bear caught John.
Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or smartphones—no matter how educational—doesn't appear to be enough for children's brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who'd watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish(辨别) between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies—regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio—learned nothing.
12. Why are early experiences so important to children according to the study?
A. They can show connections in their brains.
B. They can increase new information of IQs.
C. They can offer children more attention.
D. They can help to develop their brains.
13. How was the research carried out?
A. By recognizing babies' different appearances.
B. By producing images of new words for babies.
C. By testing how babies' brains learn to speak language.
D. By checking babies' brains to identify different sound patterns.
14. Why is Gervain excited about the findings?
A. Grammar is important in learning languages.
B. Different orders of sounds have different meanings.
C. The order of words comes from its grammar meaning.
D. Different languages have different grammar rules.
15. What is Patricia Kuhl most likely to agree?
A. Learning Chinese is of great benefit to babies' brains.
B. Babies are better than adults in learning a foreign language.
C. Face-to-face communication can improve babies' brains.
D. Babies learn a lot from television, audio books or the Internet.

【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了北京冬残奥会吉祥物“雪容融”的设计。
1. 考查名词。句意：2022年冬季残奥会吉祥物雪容融自首次公开亮相以来就赢得了全球认可。根据空前的修饰词its first public可知，此处用所给动词的名词形式作宾语。故填appearance。
2. 考查动词时态和语态。句意：在中国古代，灯笼是用来照明的。根据时间状语“In ancient times”可知，此处用一般过去时，又因为use与lanterns存在逻辑上的动宾关系，此处用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为lanterns，be动词用were。故填were used。
3. 考查形容词。句意：看起来快乐的吉祥物向世界传递了一个充满希望的信息，象征着残疾运动员的拼搏精神，照亮了人类。此处用所给名词的形容词形式hopeful作定语，修饰空后的名词message。故填hopeful。
4. 考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词是the fighting spirit，指物，在定语从句中作主语，需用关系代词that/which引导。故填that/which。
5. 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：雪意为“雪”，寓意丰收的季节，而顶部的如意图案则承载着幸福的含义。根据主句的谓语动词suggests可知，此处是一般性叙述，用一般现在时，又因为主语是the Ruyi pattern，此处用所给动词的第三人称单数形式。故填carries。
6. 考查冠词。句意：“其中一个主要任务就是让这个独特的灯笼活起来，因为大多数奥运会和残奥会吉祥物都是基于动物形象，而不是实物。” 此处特指前文提到的吉祥物的灯笼形象，此处用定冠词。故填the。
7. 考查介词。句意同上。be based on/ upon sth 意为“以某事或某物为基础（或根据）”，为固定搭配。故填on/upon。
8. 考查形容词最高级。句意：这是设计过程中最艰难、最令人困惑的任务。根据空前的定冠词the及空后and most confusing task in the designing process可知，此处用所给形容词的最高级。故填toughest。
9. 考查非谓语动词。句意：艺术家们在试验了其他动物形象后，决定用剪纸的鸽子来装饰它，然后意识到两个鸽子尾巴的形状可以勾勒出北京著名的地标——天坛，从而为设计增添更多的文化和历史特色。decide to do sth意为“决定做某事”，为固定用法。故填to decorate。
10. 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。分析句子成分可知，该空填非谓语动词，表示自然而然的结果，用现在分词作结果状语。故填adding。
