Have you ever been to a music festival？Well if you live in the UK，the answer is probably yes.The number of festivals has grown greatly over the last few years and now there are around 200 every summer.So let's look at the history of four famous festivals.
The Glastonbury Festival is a five-day festival of contemporary performing arts held most years in Somerset，in the south-west of England.There are a rock and pop stage，a jazz stage，the Avalon stage，a theatre comedy stage，a cinema tent，a dance tent and a circus（马戏团）.The festival started in1970 and about 120，000 people go to it every summer.
The Reading Festival is truly world-class with rock and pop bands appearing from all over the world，particularly the USA.About 80，000 music fans go to Reading every August Bank Holiday.The festival first came to its present site on the banks of the River Thames in Reading in 1971，when it moved from Plumpton in Sussex.It is still on the same site over 47 years later!
WOMAD stands for World of Music，Arts and Dance and was the idea of rock musician Peter Gabriel to promote world music.The WOMAD Festival started in 1982 and takes place in July at Charlton Park，near Malmesbury in Wiltshire，and you can see different bands and musicians from all over the world.The festival welcomes over 26，000 visitors each year.
The one-day Monsters of Rock Festival at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes was first held in 1980 and gave visitors the chance to hear the very best of hard rock and heavy metal.There were no festivals between 1996 and 2003 as a result of changing musical fashions，but now it has returned and grown into a two-day festival with a campsite for the 30，000 people who go there in summer days.

On a journey to the little-known Northeast region of India，we discover "a rare creature"：the "Forest Man of India".Nearly every day for almost 40 years now，Jadav Payeng，a local farmer，has risen before dawn to cross the river on his boat，and begins the daily two-mile journey to his vegetable farm and his life's mission：reviving the ecosystem here.
When Payeng was a boy，the river island of Majuli was attached to the mainland.Over the past several decades，erosion （侵蚀） from the powerful river waters of the Brahmaputra has gradually cut it off from the mainland. "Earlier，this was all sand.No trees，no grass—nothing was here." Today fields of tall grasses stretch into the distance.Along with bright green plains dotted with cows，cotton trees stand straight in rows as far as the eye can see.
Payeng set about planting here in 1979，after unexpectedly seeing some dead snakes piled on the sand in the Indian sun. "When I saw it，I thought even we humans will have to die this way in the heat.It struck me，" he said.Payeng sought no permission to plant the forest.He just grew it，carrying on his tribe's tradition of honoring nature.
The dense forest now covers an area of more than 1，300 acres.He is delighted that wild elephants cross the shallow river waters to walk around in his forest.Besides elephants，the home is filled with deer，monkeys，tigers and a wide variety of birds. "It's not as if I did it alone，" says the self-styled naturalist. "You plant one or two trees，and they have to seed.And once they seed，the wind knows how to plant them，the birds here know how to sow them，cows know，elephants know，even the Brahmaputra River knows.The entire ecosystem knows."
Payeng has single-handedly changed the landscape.When asked how he has sustained his passion，Payeng strikes a respectful tone. "Nature gives me inspiration.It gives me power.As long as it survives，I survive."
4. What does Para.2 mainly talk about？
A. How Majuli island got its name.
B. How Majuli has changed over time.
C. What Payeng has done in the 40 years.
D. Why there was all sand on Majuli earlier.
5. What made Payeng start planting trees？
A. The sight of dead snakes.
B. The permission of the tribe.
C. The tradition of respecting nature.
D. The mission of reviving the ecosystem.
6. What can we learn from Para.4？
A. The ecosystem is recovering.
B. Payeng takes elephants to his forest.
C. The forest is home to all wild animals.
D. Payeng plants the trees with others' help.
7. What is the best title of the passage？
A. An Impressive Forest
B. A Balanced Ecosystem
C. A Lifetime of Planting Trees
D. An Effort of Saving Rare Creatures

Even if you aren't into artificial intelligence，it's time to pay attention to ChatGPT，because this one is a big deal.ChatGPT is an Al chatbot system that OpenAI released in November to show off and test what a very large，powerful Al system can accomplish.
ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models.It lets you type natural-language prompts and then offers conversational responses.It remembers the thread of your dialogue，using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses.It finds relevant information in its oceans of training data，and converts that into plausible-sounding paragraphs of text.
You can ask it countless questions and often will get an answer that's useful.For example.you can ask it encyclopedia questions like. "Explain Newton's laws of motion. " You can tell it. "Write me a poem. " and when it does.say. "Now make it more exciting. " You can ask it to write a computer program that'll show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word.
A few days after its launch.more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT.UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January.accomplishing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.
Many people fear that ChatGPT might help students cheat better.But as with many other technology developments.it's not a simple black-and-white situation.Decades ago.students could copy encyclopedia entries and use calculators.and more recently.they've been able to usesearch engines and Wikipedia.ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with researeh to doing your homework for you outright.
Dustin York.an associate professor of commination at Maryville University.hopes educators will learn to use ChatGPT as a tool and realize it can help students think critically.
" Educators" thought that Google，Wikipedia，and the Internet itself would ruin education，but they did not. "York said. "What worries me most are educators who may actively try to discourage the acknowledgment of Al like ChatGPT.It is a tool，not a villain. "
8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about ChatGPT？
A. Its language model. B. Its working theory.
C. Its design inspiration. D. Its development process.
9. What can't ChatGPT do？

C. Chat with users. D. Help with housework.
10. Why does the author list figures in Paragraph 4？
A. To show the popularity of ChatGPT.
B. To stress the high cost of inventing ChatGPT.
C. To present the creativity of artificial intelligence.
D. To prove the necessity of developing tools for chatting online.
11. What's the best title of this article？

Earth is experiencing its sixth mass extinction：somewhere between 30 and 159 species（物种） disappear every day，and more than 300 types of animals have died out since 1500.This is not good for the future of life on our planet，but what if we could make some of the extinct species come back to life？Thanks to ongoing advances in DNA recovery and cloning technology，de-extinction may soon be realized，and we may see Tasmanian Tigers，or Dodo Birds back into existence in the near future.
Some scientists are confident and optimistic about de-extinction.They think that the best reasons for de-extinction have more to do with ecology than tourism. "If this is always going to be a zoo animal，then stop，" says Ben Novak，the lead researcherat Revive & Restore—a foundation devoted to rescuing endangered and extinct species in San Francisco，California. "The goals have to be about ecological restoration and function."
Take passenger pigeons for example.Their numbers reached nearly 5 billion at the start of the 19th century，and they played an important role in shaping the forests they inhabited（居住）.After their extinction，the forests have never been the same. "The passenger pigeon is a very important ecological species if we want their original habitat back." Novak says.
However，we need to think twice about Novak's idea.Any new scientific initiative is bound to have risks，so is de-extinction.Although some assume that de-extinction may help the environment，we can't be so sure.The de-extinct animals would now be strangers to their habitats.As the habitat is no longer what it was，the species role within the ecosystem may have also changed.This could be actually a threat to the other species within the environment as the de-extinct animals enter the area and compete for food sources.Once again we're trying to force nature to act in a certain way，rather than letting it remain natural.
Many scientists also believe that priorities（优先权） would change within the conservation of currently endangered species.Would we still put in the effort to preserve living animals if we knew we could just magically bring them back from the dead？Douglas McCauley，an ecologist at University of California，Santa Barbara，stresses this worry. "Honestly，the thing that scares me most is that the public absorbs the misimpression that extinction is no longer scary.The general attitude becomes：Deforest，no worry，we can reforest.If we drive something extinct，no worry，we can de-extinct it." said McCauley.
It seems that with the subject of de-extinction，we must look at our reasons for doing such a thing.Yes，we may，in the near future，be able to de-extinct the extinct species.But does that mean we should？Are the risks really worth it？Does it make sense to focus on the dead than the living？And who are we truly benefiting in the end？
12. Ben Novak probably agrees that ______ .
A. the value of de-extinctionlies in tourism
B. de-extinct animals are unfit to live in the zoo
C. de-extinction results from the change of ecosystem
D. de-extinction aims to bring back former environment
13. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 5？ ______
A. People's impressions on lost species.
B. Change of public attitude towards de-extinction.
C. Importance of the conservation of living animals.
D. Effects of de-extinction on the protection of endangered species.
14. What is the author's attitude toward de-extinction？ ______
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Neutral. D. Supportive.
15. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage？ ______
I：Introduction P：Point Sp：Sub-point （次要点） C：Conclusion
A. B.
C. D.
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）
How strong are you？
That is a difficult question to answer，whether you are a man or a woman.But，really，I want to ask …how do you define（定义） your strength？How do you know your limits？When pushed，we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
（1）
Strength is not always just about physical strength.Rather，it's about willpower（意志力），discipline（纪律） and drive.（2） I know some people who are intelligent，but they get little done in their jobs.And I know others who find work very difficult，but are able to move mountains by their hard work.They have inner（内在的）strength.
Limiting yourself
What I have observed is that most people limit themselves.They limit their output according to how limited they imagine their abilities and strengths to be.Sometimes these limits are based on past experiences.Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are. （3）
Pushing it …
Many people are working out，but nowhere near as much as they could.
（4） Pushing yourself is what it takes to go beyond your limits.In the gym，bodybuilders discovered this long ago.But this is also true when it comes to inner strength.
Want to test your limits？Push yourself.Test your limits to see if they are simply what you imagine them to be.Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
Your are stronger than you think
Most people underestimate（低估） their strength.As you go through your day，test your limits.Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength.（5）
A.Physical ability
B.What is strength？
C.The same applies to daily life.
D.It's about the ability to get things done.
E.Sometimes these limits are based on nothing.
F.If you want to be stronger，you have to push yourself.

【解析】（1）细节理解题。由The Glastonbury Festival 中bout 120，000 people go to it every summer（每年夏天约有12万人参加）、The Reading Festival段中About 80，000 music fans go to Reading（大约有八万音乐迷去读书节。）和The WOMAD Festival中The festival welcomes over 26，000 visitors each year.（这个节日每年接待26000多名游客。）以及The one-day Monsters of Rock Festival中the 30，000 people who go there in summer days.夏天去那里的三万人。通过参加人数对比可知，The Glastonbury Festival吸引了最多的粉丝。故选C项。
（2）推理判断题。由The Reading Festival 中的About 80，000 music fans go to Reading every August Bank Holiday.（每年八月银行假日，约有80000名乐迷前往读书节。）和The festival first came to its present site on the banks of the River Thames in Reading in 1971 when it moved from Plumpton in Sussex（1971年，该节日从苏塞克斯郡的普卢普顿搬到现在位于泰晤士河沿岸的雷丁。）所以判断出The Reading Festival是以举办地点命名的。故选C项。
（3）细节理解题。由第一段The number of festivals has grown greatly over the last few years and now there are around 200 every summer（在过去的几年里，节日的数量有了很大的增长，现在每年夏天大约有200个节日。）再结合每部分细节The festival started in1970 and about 120，000 people go to it every summer（这个节日始于1970年，每年夏天约有12万人参加）；go to Reading every August（每年八月去读书节）；takes place in July（在七月举行）；who go there in summer days.（他们在夏天去那里）通过提到的时间可知，这四个节日的共同特点是都在夏天举办。故选B项。

（2）细节理解题。根据第三段Payeng set about planting here in 1979，after unexpectedly seeing some dead snakes piled on the sand in the Indian sun. （1979年，在印度的阳光下，Payeng意外地看到一些死蛇堆在沙滩上，于是他开始在这里种植。）可知，Payeng意外地看到一些死蛇堆在沙滩上，于是他开始在这里种植。故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据第四段The dense forest now covers an area of more than 1，300 acres.He is delighted that wild elephants cross the shallow river waters to walk around in his forest.Besides elephants，the home is filled with deer，monkeys，tigers and a wide variety of birds. （这片茂密的森林现在占地面积超过1300英亩。他很高兴看到野象穿过浅浅的河水在他的森林里走来走去。除了大象，家里还有鹿、猴子、老虎和各种各样的鸟类。）可知，这里的生态系统在不断地恢复。故选A。
（4）标题归纳题。通读全文，文章讲述的是Payeng在Majuli通过不断地种树，慢慢地恢复当地的生态系统，同时也交代了Payeng坚持的精神。C选项"A Lifetime of Planting Trees（种树的一生）"概括文章主题，适合作本文标题，故选C。

（3）推理判断题。从第四段 A few days after its launch.more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT.UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January.accomplishing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.（推出后几天。超过100万人在尝试ChatGPT。瑞银（UBS）分析师劳埃德•沃姆斯利（Lloyd Walmsley）在2023年2月估计，ChatGPT在1月份的月用户数达到了1亿。TikTok用了9个月，Instagram用了2年半。）的数据可知，ChatGPT在极短的时间之内吸引了TikTok和Instagram需要很长时间才能吸引的用户量，所以非常受欢迎。故选A项。
（4）标题归纳题。本文从第一段开始引入ChatGPT这一新事物；第二段介绍其工作原理；第三段举例介绍ChatGPT可以做什么；第四段介绍ChatGPT迅速吸引了大量用户；第五段客观分析ChatGPT其实并没有帮助学生作弊，而且帮助他们学习得更好；最后两段通过专家的观点呼吁人们客观看待ChatGPT这一工具。所以整篇文章是围绕ChatGPT来写的，应该在B、D选项中选择。本文重点介绍这一新事物作为一种工具是有用的，并没有提及其缺点。A．AI advances-our loyal servants人工智能进展-我们忠诚的仆人；B．ChatGPT-merits and limitschat GPT---优点和局限性；C．A smart APP-think twice before trusting it智能应用---在信任它之前要三思；D．ChatGPT-a useful AI toolChatGPT---一个有用的人工智能工具。故选D项。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了ChatGPT及其作用。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
12~15.【答案】D、D、B、A
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段The goals have to be about ecological restoration and function.（目标必须是关于生态和功能的恢复。）可知，Ben Novak可能同意抵抗灭绝的目的是恢复原有的环境，故选D。

（3）观点态度题。根据第四段However，we need to think twice about Novak's idea.Any new scientific initiative is bound to have risks，so is de-extinction.Although some assume that de-extinction may help the environment，we can't be so sure.（然而，我们需要再考虑一下Novak的想法。任何新的科学倡议都必然有风险，复活灭绝也是如此。尽管有人认为复活灭绝可能有助于环境，但是我们无法肯定。）可知，作者对于复活灭绝是持怀疑的态度，故选B。

（3）faithful.考查形容词。句意：阿克塞尔，故事的叙述者他的叔叔、地质学家利登布洛克教授和他们忠实的冰岛导游汉斯。此处用形容词作定语修饰名词Iceland guide，故填faithful。

语法填空考查学生英语综合知识的运用，做题时要首先明确短文大意，从词语搭配，固定句型，语法，时态等方面综合考虑，结合上下文语境找出正确答案。
42.【答案】People can't be perfectly in every way. How we can do is to change ourselves to become a better person.Recently I felt rather worrying because I didn't ∧well in my monthly exam.I had been prepared well for it and worked hard for the long time.But my efforts didn't bring any results.I told my mom all my feelings，and I couldn't help crying.She sat next to us but said nothing until I stop crying.She wiped away the tear on my face and gave me a warm hug.I'll never forget what she said "trust me，you are good".She gave me lots of energy， but I realized that sometimes the process is more important than the result.
详解：
1.考查形容词。句意：人不可能事事完美。分析可知，此处应用形容词perfect"完美的"作表语。故perfectly改为perfect。
2.考查主语从句连接词。句意：我们能做的事情就是改变自己，成为一个更好的人。分析可知，此处引导主语从句，从句缺少宾语，意为"……的事情"，故应用连接代词what引导，句首单词首字母应大写。故How改为What。
3.考查形容词。句意：最近我很担心，因为我的月考没考好。分析可知，此处修饰人，应用-ed结尾的形容词worried表示"担忧的"，-ing结尾的形容词worrying"令人担忧的"，修饰物，不符合题意。故worrying改为worried。
4.考查动词原形。句意：最近我很担心，因为我的月考没考好。do well in…"在……干得好"，固定短语，助动词didn't后应用动词原形。故在well前加do。
5.考查语态。句意：我已经为此做好了充分的准备，并且努力学习了很长一段时间。分析可知，句子主语I和谓语动词prepare之间是主动关系，不是被动关系，been多余。故去掉been。
6.考查冠词。句意：我已经为此做好了充分的准备，并且努力学习了很长一段时间。结合语境可知，此处泛指"很长一段时间"，且long是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词a。故the改为a。
7.考查人称代词。句意：她坐在我旁边，但什么也没说，直到我停止哭泣。结合语境可知，此处指妈妈坐在作者身边，故应用宾格代词me表示"我"。故us改为me。
8.考查时态。句意：她坐在我旁边，但什么也没说，直到我停止哭泣。由上下文可知，作者是在叙述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。故stop改为stopped。
9.考查可数名词复数。句意：她擦去我脸上的泪水，给了我一个温暖的拥抱。tear"泪水"是可数名词，结合语境可知，此处应用其复数形式tears表示泛指。故tear改为tears。
10.考查连词。句意：她给了我很多力量，我意识到有时候过程比结果更重要。结合句意可知，前后文之间是并列关系，而非转折关系，故应用并列连词and连接。故but改为and。
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者月考没考好，妈妈鼓励作者，让作者意识到有时候过程比结果更重要的事情。
短文改错时要注意以下几点：1.快速阅读，整体把握短文大意；2.重视语境以及上下文的关系；3.充分运用基础语言知识找出错误所在。

On a journey to the little-known Northeast region of India，we discover "a rare creature"：the "Forest Man of India".Nearly every day for almost 40 years now，Jadav Payeng，a local farmer，has risen before dawn to cross the river on his boat，and begins the daily two-mile journey to his vegetable farm and his life's mission：reviving the ecosystem here.
When Payeng was a boy，the river island of Majuli was attached to the mainland.Over the past several decades，erosion （侵蚀） from the powerful river waters of the Brahmaputra has gradually cut it off from the mainland. "Earlier，this was all sand.No trees，no grass—nothing was here." Today fields of tall grasses stretch into the distance.Along with bright green plains dotted with cows，cotton trees stand straight in rows as far as the eye can see.
Payeng set about planting here in 1979，after unexpectedly seeing some dead snakes piled on the sand in the Indian sun. "When I saw it，I thought even we humans will have to die this way in the heat.It struck me，" he said.Payeng sought no permission to plant the forest.He just grew it，carrying on his tribe's tradition of honoring nature.
The dense forest now covers an area of more than 1，300 acres.He is delighted that wild elephants cross the shallow river waters to walk around in his forest.Besides elephants，the home is filled with deer，monkeys，tigers and a wide variety of birds. "It's not as if I did it alone，" says the self-styled naturalist. "You plant one or two trees，and they have to seed.And once they seed，the wind knows how to plant them，the birds here know how to sow them，cows know，elephants know，even the Brahmaputra River knows.The entire ecosystem knows."
Payeng has single-handedly changed the landscape.When asked how he has sustained his passion，Payeng strikes a respectful tone. "Nature gives me inspiration.It gives me power.As long as it survives，I survive."

Even if you aren't into artificial intelligence，it's time to pay attention to ChatGPT，because this one is a big deal.ChatGPT is an Al chatbot system that OpenAI released in November to show off and test what a very large，powerful Al system can accomplish.
ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models.It lets you type natural-language prompts and then offers conversational responses.It remembers the thread of your dialogue，using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses.It finds relevant information in its oceans of training data，and converts that into plausible-sounding paragraphs of text.
You can ask it countless questions and often will get an answer that's useful.For example.you can ask it encyclopedia questions like. "Explain Newton's laws of motion. " You can tell it. "Write me a poem. " and when it does.say. "Now make it more exciting. " You can ask it to write a computer program that'll show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word.
A few days after its launch.more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT.UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January.accomplishing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.
Many people fear that ChatGPT might help students cheat better.But as with many other technology developments.it's not a simple black-and-white situation.Decades ago.students could copy encyclopedia entries and use calculators.and more recently.they've been able to usesearch engines and Wikipedia.ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with researeh to doing your homework for you outright.
Dustin York.an associate professor of commination at Maryville University.hopes educators will learn to use ChatGPT as a tool and realize it can help students think critically.
" Educators" thought that Google，Wikipedia，and the Internet itself would ruin education，but they did not. "York said. "What worries me most are educators who may actively try to discourage the acknowledgment of Al like ChatGPT.It is a tool，not a villain. "

Earth is experiencing its sixth mass extinction：somewhere between 30 and 159 species（物种） disappear every day，and more than 300 types of animals have died out since 1500.This is not good for the future of life on our planet，but what if we could make some of the extinct species come back to life？Thanks to ongoing advances in DNA recovery and cloning technology，de-extinction may soon be realized，and we may see Tasmanian Tigers，or Dodo Birds back into existence in the near future.
Some scientists are confident and optimistic about de-extinction.They think that the best reasons for de-extinction have more to do with ecology than tourism. "If this is always going to be a zoo animal，then stop，" says Ben Novak，the lead researcherat Revive & Restore—a foundation devoted to rescuing endangered and extinct species in San Francisco，California. "The goals have to be about ecological restoration and function."
Take passenger pigeons for example.Their numbers reached nearly 5 billion at the start of the 19th century，and they played an important role in shaping the forests they inhabited（居住）.After their extinction，the forests have never been the same. "The passenger pigeon is a very important ecological species if we want their original habitat back." Novak says.
However，we need to think twice about Novak's idea.Any new scientific initiative is bound to have risks，so is de-extinction.Although some assume that de-extinction may help the environment，we can't be so sure.The de-extinct animals would now be strangers to their habitats.As the habitat is no longer what it was，the species role within the ecosystem may have also changed.This could be actually a threat to the other species within the environment as the de-extinct animals enter the area and compete for food sources.Once again we're trying to force nature to act in a certain way，rather than letting it remain natural.
Many scientists also believe that priorities（优先权） would change within the conservation of currently endangered species.Would we still put in the effort to preserve living animals if we knew we could just magically bring them back from the dead？Douglas McCauley，an ecologist at University of California，Santa Barbara，stresses this worry. "Honestly，the thing that scares me most is that the public absorbs the misimpression that extinction is no longer scary.The general attitude becomes：Deforest，no worry，we can reforest.If we drive something extinct，no worry，we can de-extinct it." said McCauley.
It seems that with the subject of de-extinction，we must look at our reasons for doing such a thing.Yes，we may，in the near future，be able to de-extinct the extinct species.But does that mean we should？Are the risks really worth it？Does it make sense to focus on the dead than the living？And who are we truly benefiting in the end？
12. Ben Novak probably agrees that ______ .
A. the value of de-extinctionlies in tourism
B. de-extinct animals are unfit to live in the zoo
C. de-extinction results from the change of ecosystem
D. de-extinction aims to bring back former environment
13. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 5？ ______
A. People's impressions on lost species.
B. Change of public attitude towards de-extinction.
C. Importance of the conservation of living animals.
D. Effects of de-extinction on the protection of endangered species.
14. What is the author's attitude toward de-extinction？ ______
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Neutral. D. Supportive.
15. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage？ ______
I：Introduction P：Point Sp：Sub-point （次要点） C：Conclusion
A. B.
C. D.
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）
How strong are you？
That is a difficult question to answer，whether you are a man or a woman.But，really，I want to ask …how do you define（定义） your strength？How do you know your limits？When pushed，we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
（1）
Strength is not always just about physical strength.Rather，it's about willpower（意志力），discipline（纪律） and drive.（2） I know some people who are intelligent，but they get little done in their jobs.And I know others who find work very difficult，but are able to move mountains by their hard work.They have inner（内在的）strength.
Limiting yourself
What I have observed is that most people limit themselves.They limit their output according to how limited they imagine their abilities and strengths to be.Sometimes these limits are based on past experiences.Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are. （3）
Pushing it …
Many people are working out，but nowhere near as much as they could.
（4） Pushing yourself is what it takes to go beyond your limits.In the gym，bodybuilders discovered this long ago.But this is also true when it comes to inner strength.
Want to test your limits？Push yourself.Test your limits to see if they are simply what you imagine them to be.Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
Your are stronger than you think
Most people underestimate（低估） their strength.As you go through your day，test your limits.Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength.（5）
A.Physical ability
B.What is strength？
C.The same applies to daily life.
D.It's about the ability to get things done.
E.Sometimes these limits are based on nothing.
F.If you want to be stronger，you have to push yourself.
G.When you discover how much you've really got，you may surprise yourself.
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

答案和解析
1~3.【答案】C、C、B
【解析】（1）细节理解题。由The Glastonbury Festival 中bout 120，000 people go to it every summer（每年夏天约有12万人参加）、The Reading Festival段中About 80，000 music fans go to Reading（大约有八万音乐迷去读书节。）和The WOMAD Festival中The festival welcomes over 26，000 visitors each year.（这个节日每年接待26000多名游客。）以及The one-day Monsters of Rock Festival中the 30，000 people who go there in summer days.夏天去那里的三万人。通过参加人数对比可知，The Glastonbury Festival吸引了最多的粉丝。故选C项。
（2）推理判断题。由The Reading Festival 中的About 80，000 music fans go to Reading every August Bank Holiday.（每年八月银行假日，约有80000名乐迷前往读书节。）和The festival first came to its present site on the banks of the River Thames in Reading in 1971 when it moved from Plumpton in Sussex（1971年，该节日从苏塞克斯郡的普卢普顿搬到现在位于泰晤士河沿岸的雷丁。）所以判断出The Reading Festival是以举办地点命名的。故选C项。
（3）细节理解题。由第一段The number of festivals has grown greatly over the last few years and now there are around 200 every summer（在过去的几年里，节日的数量有了很大的增长，现在每年夏天大约有200个节日。）再结合每部分细节The festival started in1970 and about 120，000 people go to it every summer（这个节日始于1970年，每年夏天约有12万人参加）；go to Reading every August（每年八月去读书节）；takes place in July（在七月举行）；who go there in summer days.（他们在夏天去那里）通过提到的时间可知，这四个节日的共同特点是都在夏天举办。故选B项。
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了英国四个有名音乐节日的详情。
阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。

（2）细节理解题。根据第三段Payeng set about planting here in 1979，after unexpectedly seeing some dead snakes piled on the sand in the Indian sun. （1979年，在印度的阳光下，Payeng意外地看到一些死蛇堆在沙滩上，于是他开始在这里种植。）可知，Payeng意外地看到一些死蛇堆在沙滩上，于是他开始在这里种植。故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据第四段The dense forest now covers an area of more than 1，300 acres.He is delighted that wild elephants cross the shallow river waters to walk around in his forest.Besides elephants，the home is filled with deer，monkeys，tigers and a wide variety of birds. （这片茂密的森林现在占地面积超过1300英亩。他很高兴看到野象穿过浅浅的河水在他的森林里走来走去。除了大象，家里还有鹿、猴子、老虎和各种各样的鸟类。）可知，这里的生态系统在不断地恢复。故选A。
（4）标题归纳题。通读全文，文章讲述的是Payeng在Majuli通过不断地种树，慢慢地恢复当地的生态系统，同时也交代了Payeng坚持的精神。C选项"A Lifetime of Planting Trees（种树的一生）"概括文章主题，适合作本文标题，故选C。
本文是一篇记叙文。文中介绍了Payeng在Majuli通过不断地种树，慢慢地恢复当地的生态系统。
阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。
8~11.【答案】B、D、A、D
【解析】（1）段落大意题。根据第二段"ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models.It lets you type natural-language prompts and then offers conversational responses.It remembers the thread of your dialogue，using previous questions and answers toinform its next responses.It finds relevant information in its oceans of training data，and converts that into plausible-sounding paragraphs of text.（ ChatGPT建立在OpenAI GPT-3家族的大型语言模型之上。它可以让你输入自然语言提示，然后提供对话应答。它会记住你对话的线索，利用之前的问题和答案来决定下一个回答。它在训练数据的海洋中找到相关信息，并将其转换为听起来合理的文本段落。）"可知，第二段是在讲ChatGPT的运作原理。故选B项。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段第二句It lets you type natural-language prompts and then offers conversational responses.（它可以让你输入自然语言提示，然后提供对话应答。）可知，ChatGPT可以与用户聊天；根据第三段最后一句You can ask it to write a computer program that'll show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word.（你可以让它编写一个计算机程序，向你展示排列单词字母的所有不同方式。）可知，ChatGPT可以写程序；根据第五段最后一句ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing your homework for you outright.（ ChatGPT提供了各种新功能，从帮助研究到完全帮你完成作业。）可知，ChatGPT可以帮用户写作业。而文中没有提到ChatGPT可以帮助用户做家务。故选D项。
（3）推理判断题。从第四段 A few days after its launch.more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT.UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January.accomplishing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.（推出后几天。超过100万人在尝试ChatGPT。瑞银（UBS）分析师劳埃德•沃姆斯利（Lloyd Walmsley）在2023年2月估计，ChatGPT在1月份的月用户数达到了1亿。TikTok用了9个月，Instagram用了2年半。）的数据可知，ChatGPT在极短的时间之内吸引了TikTok和Instagram需要很长时间才能吸引的用户量，所以非常受欢迎。故选A项。
（4）标题归纳题。本文从第一段开始引入ChatGPT这一新事物；第二段介绍其工作原理；第三段举例介绍ChatGPT可以做什么；第四段介绍ChatGPT迅速吸引了大量用户；第五段客观分析ChatGPT其实并没有帮助学生作弊，而且帮助他们学习得更好；最后两段通过专家的观点呼吁人们客观看待ChatGPT这一工具。所以整篇文章是围绕ChatGPT来写的，应该在B、D选项中选择。本文重点介绍这一新事物作为一种工具是有用的，并没有提及其缺点。A．AI advances-our loyal servants人工智能进展-我们忠诚的仆人；B．ChatGPT-merits and limitschat GPT---优点和局限性；C．A smart APP-think twice before trusting it智能应用---在信任它之前要三思；D．ChatGPT-a useful AI toolChatGPT---一个有用的人工智能工具。故选D项。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了ChatGPT及其作用。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
12~15.【答案】D、D、B、A
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段The goals have to be about ecological restoration and function.（目标必须是关于生态和功能的恢复。）可知，Ben Novak可能同意抵抗灭绝的目的是恢复原有的环境，故选D。
（2）段落大意题。根据倒数第二段"Honestly，the thing that scares me most is that the public absorbs the misimpression that extinction is no longer scary.The general attitude becomes：Deforest，no worry，we can reforest.If we drive something extinct，no worry，we can de-extinct it." said McCauley.（McCauley说道："老实说，最让我害怕的是公众对灭绝不再感到害怕的错误印象。人们的普遍态度是：砍伐森林，不用担心，我们可以重新造林。如果我们把灭绝的东西赶走，别担心，我们可以使灭绝的东西复活"。）可知，本段主要就讲述了抵抗复活对保护濒危物种的影响，故选D。
（3）观点态度题。根据第四段However，we need to think twice about Novak's idea.Any new scientific initiative is bound to have risks，so is de-extinction.Although some assume that de-extinction may help the environment，we can't be so sure.（然而，我们需要再考虑一下Novak的想法。任何新的科学倡议都必然有风险，复活灭绝也是如此。尽管有人认为复活灭绝可能有助于环境，但是我们无法肯定。）可知，作者对于复活灭绝是持怀疑的态度，故选B。
（4）篇章结构题。通读全文可知，文章第一段引入主题，分别提出了两个对立的观点，第五段又提出了另外一些科学家的观点，第六段做了总结，因此选项A与文章的结构符合，故选A。
本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了地球正在经历第六次大规模灭绝：每天有30至159种物种消失，自1500年以来已有300多种动物死亡。
阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。
16~20.【答案】B、D、E、F、G
【解析】BDEFG
1．B．考查上下文推理能力．由下文的Strength is not always just about physical strength．Rather，it's about willpower，discipline （纪律） and drive．可知本段主要说明什么是力量．故选B．
2．D．考查上下文推理能力．由空前的it's about willpower，discipline （纪律） and drive．及空后的描述可知，力量指的是意志力、纪律、动力，是一种能够做好事情的能力．故选D．
3．E．考查上下文推理能力．由空前的Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are．可知E项"有些人毫无任何根据就限定了自己的力量"符合语境．故选E．
4．F．考查上下文推理能力．由该段主旨Pushing it⋅⋅⋅以及空后的Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase your limits．可知F项"如果你想变得更强大，你就要给自己点压力．"符合此处语境．故选F．
5．G．考查上下文推理能力．由该段主旨句You are stronger than you think以及文中的描述可知，G项"当你发现你真正的力量时，你自己都会感到不可思议．"符合此处语境．故选G．
本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述的是我实际上要比我们自己要强壮，大部分人会低估自己的力量．
七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子．解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子．

【小题4】an
【小题5】managed
【小题6】regularly
【小题7】which
【小题8】starting
【小题9】to understand
【小题10】for
【解析】（1）popularity.考查不可数名词。句意：这本书中的科学知识很古老，但这与这本书的受欢迎程度无关。结合句意和the可知，此处用名词作介词with的宾语，表示"受欢迎"，为不可数名词，故填popularity。
（2）characters.考查可数名词的复数。句意：这本书有三个主要人物。空前由three修饰，故用名词的复数形式，故填characters。
（3）faithful.考查形容词。句意：阿克塞尔，故事的叙述者他的叔叔、地质学家利登布洛克教授和他们忠实的冰岛导游汉斯。此处用形容词作定语修饰名词Iceland guide，故填faithful。
（4）an.考查冠词。句意：教授是一个没有耐心的人，但他坚持继续这段旅程，最终成功了。结合句意可知，此处表示泛指，故用不定冠词，impatient为元音音素开头的单词，故填an。
（5）managed.考查动词时态。句意：教授是一个没有耐心的人，但他坚持继续这段旅程，最终成功了。结合句意和insisted可知，词采用一般过去时，故填managed。
（6）regularly.考查副词。句意：只要教授雇佣他并定期支付工资，他就可以为他做任何事，尽管情况看起来很绝望。此处用副词作状语修饰paid，故填regularly。

（9）to understand.考查动词不定式。句意：其中的一些单词可能很难理解。it作形式主语，动词不定式作真正的主语，故填to understand。

语法填空考查学生英语综合知识的运用，做题时要首先明确短文大意，从词语搭配，固定句型，语法，时态等方面综合考虑，结合上下文语境找出正确答案。
42.【答案】People can't be perfectly in every way. How we can do is to change ourselves to become a better person.Recently I felt rather worrying because I didn't ∧well in my monthly exam.I had been prepared well for it and worked hard for the long time.But my efforts didn't bring any results.I told my mom all my feelings，and I couldn't help crying.She sat next to us but said nothing until I stop crying.She wiped away the tear on my face and gave me a warm hug.I'll never forget what she said "trust me，you are good".She gave me lots of energy， but I realized that sometimes the process is more important than the result.
详解：
1.考查形容词。句意：人不可能事事完美。分析可知，此处应用形容词perfect"完美的"作表语。故perfectly改为perfect。
2.考查主语从句连接词。句意：我们能做的事情就是改变自己，成为一个更好的人。分析可知，此处引导主语从句，从句缺少宾语，意为"……的事情"，故应用连接代词what引导，句首单词首字母应大写。故How改为What。
3.考查形容词。句意：最近我很担心，因为我的月考没考好。分析可知，此处修饰人，应用-ed结尾的形容词worried表示"担忧的"，-ing结尾的形容词worrying"令人担忧的"，修饰物，不符合题意。故worrying改为worried。
4.考查动词原形。句意：最近我很担心，因为我的月考没考好。do well in…"在……干得好"，固定短语，助动词didn't后应用动词原形。故在well前加do。
5.考查语态。句意：我已经为此做好了充分的准备，并且努力学习了很长一段时间。分析可知，句子主语I和谓语动词prepare之间是主动关系，不是被动关系，been多余。故去掉been。
6.考查冠词。句意：我已经为此做好了充分的准备，并且努力学习了很长一段时间。结合语境可知，此处泛指"很长一段时间"，且long是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词a。故the改为a。
7.考查人称代词。句意：她坐在我旁边，但什么也没说，直到我停止哭泣。结合语境可知，此处指妈妈坐在作者身边，故应用宾格代词me表示"我"。故us改为me。
8.考查时态。句意：她坐在我旁边，但什么也没说，直到我停止哭泣。由上下文可知，作者是在叙述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。故stop改为stopped。
9.考查可数名词复数。句意：她擦去我脸上的泪水，给了我一个温暖的拥抱。tear"泪水"是可数名词，结合语境可知，此处应用其复数形式tears表示泛指。故tear改为tears。
10.考查连词。句意：她给了我很多力量，我意识到有时候过程比结果更重要。结合句意可知，前后文之间是并列关系，而非转折关系，故应用并列连词and连接。故but改为and。
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者月考没考好，妈妈鼓励作者，让作者意识到有时候过程比结果更重要的事情。
短文改错时要注意以下几点：1.快速阅读，整体把握短文大意；2.重视语境以及上下文的关系；3.充分运用基础语言知识找出错误所在。
