It has long been thought that only humans have personalities, but in recent decades, personalities have been found in animals from spiders to apes. Personalities have been linked to cognitive capabilities, like academic or work performance in humans. Thus in a new research article, Vedrana Slipogor and his colleagues from University of Vienna focused on exploring whether such a link is also present in many common marmosets（狨猴）.
The researchers first individually assessed the personalities of these monkeys by measuring their reactions in various tasks, like their engagement with novel or strange objects, new types of food, or time needed to approach a toy snake. With the help of these tasks, they found that some monkeys were very explorative and bold（大胆自信的）, while others rather tried to avoid the novel objects presented to them and keep a distance.
The researchers then assessed the monkeys’ learning performance in several learning tasks. For instance, in the simpler learning tasks, the monkeys were trained to hold a target training stick, to stand on a weighing scale（磅秤）, and to reach the furthest point in the test set-up. The monkeys’ learning skills were also tested in other tasks, which were more challenging, where they had to either form an association between objects of the same size, but of different colors and shapes, or between objects that had the same features, but had different sizes. The results show that personalities could predict the learning speed in these monkeys. And the bold monkeys learned faster than the shy ones across different tasks.
Finally the researchers tested the learning performance of the female marmosets and male ones separately. The results also have differences.
28. How did the researchers evaluate the marmosets’ personalities?
A. By comparing them with bold human beings.
B. By measuring how they responded to different tasks.
C. By observing their speed of finishing tough tasks.
D. By letting them play with different kinds of monkeys.
29. What do we know about marmosets?
A. There is no difference in their personalities.
B. Their personalities affect how fast they learn.
C. They can tell the numbers on a weighing scale.
D. They tend to avoid approaching strange objects.
30. What is most likely to be discussed following the last paragraph?
A. Marmosets’ ability to distinguish objects’ shapes.
B. The challenges marmosets face when learning skills.
C. The research about shy and bold marmosets ’learning speed.
D. Different learning performance of female and male marmosets.
31. What is the text probably taken from?
A. A chemistry paper. B. A history book.
C. A science magazine. D. A travel journal.
D
In India, one elegant live-work space by architecture firm Koshy shows how architects and designers can keep a measured balance between using new and recycled materials. Located in Kochi, in the southern state of Kerala, the Koshish building features repurposed materials like Mangalore tiles（瓷砖）, steel, and windows—all from an abandoned textile factory situated about 5 miles away.
As the architect Charles Loeway explains, the inclusion of over 14,000 of these tiles not only refers to the storied history of this locally made material, but also underlines how there are still plenty of ecological benefits of using these more traditional components. “With much of Kerala giving up traditional terracotta tiles in favour of more contemporary materials, the significance of the age-old Mangalore tiles has been overlooked of late. Cooler temperatures, breathability（透气性）and a timeless appearance that’s easy on the eye are just few of the many advantages that the core material of the structure possesses,” he adds.
Mangalore tiles are named after the city of Mangalore in the neighboring state of Karnataka. This type of terracotta tile was first introduced to the subcontinent in the 1860s, by way of a German. Since then, these tiles have been manufactured（制造）locally and used extensively in India’s older government buildings, or exported off to Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Europe, Australia, and East Africa. They remain a popular choice for roofing, preferable over concrete due to their quality.
Obviously, Indian architects had all this in mind when making the decision to build many of the project’s walls with these distinctive tiles. Ultimately, this modern, yet down-to-earth project shows us that old can indeed become new and beautiful again.
32. What can be learned about the buildings designed by Koshy?
A. Recycled materials are added to them B. They totally use traditional materials.
C. All of their designers are from Germany. D. An abandoned factory is similar to them.
33. What does Charles Loeway mainly intend to tell us?
A. The goal of the architecture firm.
B. The benefits of traditional materials.
C. The feature of modern architecture.
D. The reasons for using modern materials.
34. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?
A. An Indian first introduced Mangalore tiles.
B. The origin of the name of Mangalore tiles is unknown.
C. Mangalore tiles are of better quality than concrete for roofing.
D. Mangalore tiles are not allowed to be manufactured in India.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Traditional Recycled Materials Used in India
B. The Problem With Many Modern Buildings
C. A Family Keen on Environmental Protection
D. New Exploration on Recycling Building Waste

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was born in a small village in the mountainous province of Lao Cai in Vietnam. In my poverty-stricken small village, girls hardly had the chance to complete their education. But I was lucky. I was born into a family where my parents supported our education. As one of the very few families that could afford all children to continue to study till high school, my parents faced a lot of negative opinions from our neighbors.
I was not always there for the criticism, however, as I lived in boarding schools for ethnic minority（少数民族）children. There were a lot of girls and boys from different ethnic groups in our schools. In these second homes, I learned from teachers and friends and most importantly, I was trained to live independently and with confidence. And this gave me the motivation to try harder every day.
In 2017, I came to Hanoi, the capital city, as a first-year student at the University of Languages and International Studies. It was a life-changing experience for me. I was thrilled at the fact that the students here were so bright and brilliant. The world became much bigger for me—far different from my small town. “Where are you from? Are you an ethnic minority?” Those were the frequent questions I had from my classmates at the beginning. At first, I was afraid of those questions and then I realized that when I began to talk openly about my culture, I was warmly received.
It goes without saying that confidence grows in a nurturing（滋养的）environment. Again, I found myself lucky. Slowly I started to engage in school activities and after some time, I volunteered for community activities.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
In 2019, I became the leader of a students’ group working on voluntary projects for our ethnic community. _______________________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Now I am working as a teaching assistant in an international primary school. _______________________________________________________________________________________________

W：About the higher prices?
M：Oh, they don’t mind paying a little more, but they want us to open for longer, so they can go there for their breaks as well.
W：I’ll talk to the canteen manager and see what we can do. What about providing some extra equipment? A sports center was mentioned quite a lot, wasn’t it? But the manager isn’t interested in the idea.
M：Was he thinking of something cheaper?
W：That’s not a problem. He’s worried that not many people would use it, and that in the long term the building would stand empty. He’d like to know what other equipment the staff are interested in. But not something like a swimming pool because there’s already one nearby. Something like a staff library would be good.
M：That sounds like a good idea.
（Text 10）
M：And today on our holiday program we have some information about a cycling holiday. It is run by Pathway Holidays, and it’s from Monday June 12 until Saturday June 17. On this trip, you cycle from the northwest of England to Sunderland in the northeast. The total cost of the tour is £652 and that includes your hotel, all meals, the transport of your luggage and a tour guide. This is someone who knows the area and can tell you about it during the trip. In fact, the price includes everything except bicycle hire. It’s possible to hire a bicycle and you should book one in advance if you want to do that, but they recommend bringing your own bicycle. It’s often more comfortable to ride one that you are used to.
Entertainment is provided in the first hotel in Whitehaven—there’ll be a musical evening on the first day. On Wednesday evening, the hotel you are staying in will organize a quiz, and on the last evening—that’s Friday—there’ll be a party.
If you’d like more information about the trip, the company Pathway Holidays advises you to look at their website, and I’ll tell you what that is in a minute.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear David,
I am glad to receive your email. As for how to persuade your friend to get rid of smoking, I’d like to offer you some suggestions.
To begin with, you should talk to him face to face and find out why he started smoking. What I want to remind you is that you should pay attention to your way of speaking. Second, in order to discourage him from smoking, you can inform him of its dangers. Third, if he shows a desire to quit smoking, you can accompany him to the hospital and ask the doctor to give professional advice. I believe your friendship will be stronger after your sincere help.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
In 2019, I became the leader of a students’ group working on voluntary projects for our ethnic community. In the same year, I organized a free-of-charge English class for the children in my village and the neighborhood. The number of kids going to the class grew instantly to over 100. Most of them were in primary school and learning a foreign language was a luxury for them. Besides, bringing our unique cultures to the outside world was also a motivation for me when engaging young people in projects that saw us travel to learn and gain insights of the remote heritages.
Now I am working as a teaching assistant in an international primary school. I am proud to be the only ethnic minority employee there. I am also proud to be different in my effort to be the better version of myself every day. My wish for ethnic minority children and young people like me is to live in an inclusive world where dreams do not stop at the gate of our villages but travel as far as they should go.
