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(当代的) 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 in1970and about 120,000 people go to it every summer.
The Reading Festival is truly world-class with rock and pop bands(乐队) appearing from all over the world, particularly(尤其) 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(宣传) 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
【答案】4 B 5. A 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】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。

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 use search engines and Wikipedia. ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing your homework for you outright.
Dustin York, an associate professor of communication 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?
A. Write a computer program.
B. Write homework for students.
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?
A. AI advances-our loyal servants
B. ChatGPT-merits and limits
C. A smart APP-think twice before trusting it
D. ChatGPT-a useful AI tool
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了ChatGPT及其作用。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。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.

【9题详解】
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。
【10题详解】
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。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。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。故选D项。

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.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】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.这对我们这个星球上的未来生命并不好,但如果我们能够使一些已灭绝的物种恢复生机,会怎么样?
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The goals have to be about ecological restoration and function.(目标必须是生态恢复和功能。)”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。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。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.(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。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“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,他认为这样做是有风险的,并且也无法肯定是否对环境有帮助,故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章可知,文章第二段“Some scientists are confident and optimistic about de-extinction.(一些科学家对于复活灭绝是由信心,且乐观的。)”和第三段“However, we need to think twice about Novak’s idea. Any new scientific initiative is bound to have risks, so is de-extinction.(然而,我们应该再考虑一下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。)”可知,文章第一段引入主题,如何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6段做了总结,故文章的结构符合选项A,故选A。
第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。
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.
___16___
Strength is not always just about physical strength. Rather, it's about willpower, discipline and drive. ___17___ I know some people who are intelligent, but they get very 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 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. ___18___
Pushing it ...
Many people are working out, but nowhere near as much as they could.
___19___ Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase 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.
You 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. ___20___
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 discovering how much you've really got, you may surprise even yourself.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. E 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章给出了“力量”的定义,同时给出了关于“如何变得强大”的建议和方法。
【16题详解】
根据第二段第一句内容“Strength is not always just about physical strength. Rather, it's about willpower, discipline and drive.(力量并不总是指身体的力量。相反,它关乎意志力、纪律和动力。)”可知,该段内容对于“力量是什么”做了解释,所以该段的小标题应提出“力量是什么”这个问题来作为全段的中心句。故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据后文内容“I know some people who are intelligent, but they get very little done in their jobs. And I know others who find work very difficult, but are able to move mountains by their hard work.(我认识一些很聪明的人,但他们在工作中少有成就。我也知道有些人工作很辛苦,但却能靠自己的努力移山。)”可知,作者用两种人做例子来说明判断一个人是否有力量的标准是:是否能有所成就。选项D“它是关于完成事情的能力。”可以概括后文的内容,且该项中的主语it指代前文提到的strength,进一步对小标题提出的“力量是什么”的问题进行了解答。起到了承上启下的过渡作用。故选D项。
【18题详解】
根据空前的两个排比句“Sometimes these limits are based on…. Sometimes they are based on…”可知,选项E在句式结构和内容方面都上与前文一致,E项“有时这些限制是毫无根据的。”符合语境。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据第二个小标题内容“Pushing it ..(推动它. .)”可知,该段内容是关于“推动”的;又根据空后的“Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase your limits.(逼迫自己是增加你的极限所需要的。)”可知,设空处应填入关于“自我推动”内容的句子,选项F“如果你想变得更强,你就得鞭策自己。”符合题意,且该项中的push yourself与前后内容相呼应,故选F项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength.(逼自己找到自己真正的极限,并定义自己的力量。)”可知,作者建议读者怎样找到自己的真正极限,而选项G“当你发现你真正拥有了多少时,你可能会让自己都感到惊讶。”写出了在作者的建议下自我推动之后的结果,同时也向读者说明了“自我推动”的好处,符合行文逻辑。故选G项。

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.
【答案】1. perfectly → perfect
2. How → What
3. worrying → worried
4. 在well前加do
5 .去掉been
6 . the → a
7. us → me
8. stop → stopped
9. tear → tears
10. but → and
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了,作者月考没考好,不好受,妈妈鼓励了作者,让作者意识到有时候过程比结果更重要。
【详解】1. 考查形容词。句意:人不可能事事完美。此处用形容词perfect作表语。故将perfectly改为perfect。
2. 考查主语从句连接词。句意:我们能做的就是改变自己,成为一个更好的人。主语从句we can do缺乏宾语,意为“……的事情”,用连接代词what,首字母大写。故将How改为What。
3. 考查-ed形容词和-ing形容词。句意:最近我很担心,因为我的月考没考好。修饰形容词人用-ed形容词,修饰形容词物用-ing形容词,此处说明人I的状态,用-ed形容词worried。故将worrying改为worried。
4. 考查谓语。句意:最近我很担心,因为我的月考没考好。didn’t是助动词(+动词原形),缺乏谓语动词,do well in…(在……干得好),加do。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。主语I和谓语动词prepare是主动关系,不是被动关系,去掉been。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。此处泛指“很长一段时间”,long以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a。故将the改为a。
7. 考查代词。句意:她坐在我旁边,但什么也没说,直到我停止哭泣。此处指“我”,用宾格代词me。故将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。由上文语境可知,作者叙述过去发生的事情,stop时态用一般过去时。故将stop改为stopped。
9. 考查名词的数。句意:她擦去我脸上的泪水,给了我一个温暖的拥抱。tear是可数名词,一般用的时候大都是用其名词复数形式tears。故将tear改为tears。
10. 考查连词。句意:她给了我很多精力,我意识到有时候过程比结果更重要。前后句是并列关系,用并列连词and。故将but改为and。
