On May 14, Shanghai legislatrs (立法机构) passed a new law prtecting the Chinese sturgen, emphasizing “reginal cperatin”, accrding t China Daily. “This is the first lcal legislatin in the cuntry t prtect ne endangered fish,” said Ding Wei, directr f the legislative affairs cmmittee f the Shanghai Municipal Peple’s Cngress.
Taken effect n June 6, the regulatin urges cperatin in law enfrcement (实施), scientific research and rescue f the species between Shanghai and ther prvinces and regins in the Yangtze River basin, accrding t Peple’s Daily.
The need fr cllabrative effrts is due t the living habitat f the Chinese sturgen. As an anadrmus (溯河产卵的) species, it mainly lives in the Yangtze River and depends n the Vangtze estuary (河口) fr migratin.

With fingers and wrists wrapped in medicated tape, Zhang Guimei, funder and principal f the first free high schl fr girls in China, was presented with the July 1 Medal n Tuesday.
Zhang met her husband in Dali and wrked as a teacher in a lcal schl. Unfrtunately, her husband died f cancer nt lng after their marriage. Sadly, Zhang decided t leave this place with which she was t familiar. Hence, she vlunteered t teach at a middle schl in Huaping, a pverty-stricken cunty lcated in the muntains.
Over time, Zhang witnessed the gender gap in educatin up clse in relatively pr rural areas. Urban and rural students already faced unequal access t quality educatin, and the traditinal belief f male superirity nly wrsened rural girls’ situatin. She discvered that many female students wuld just disappear after studying fr a while and sme girls were even pulled ut f class just befre the cllege entrance exam.

She has walked t almst every husehld deep in the muntains, talking t the parents abut the imprtance f educatin fr girls.
The effrts paid ff. Over the past 13 years, her schl has sent 1,800 girls t university. “T educate a girl is t change the destiny f three generatins. A cultured, respnsible mther wn’t let her daughter drp ut f schl,“ Zhang said.

Shenzhu 12 launched n June 16 and arrived seven hurs later at Tianhe ( “Harmny f the Heavens” ), the cre mdule f China’s Earth-rbiting space statin. The Shenzhu 12 crew, cmmanded by Nie, spent 90 days abard Tianhe, staying alft abut three times lnger than any previus Chinese crewed spaceflight.
Shenzhu 12’s retum t Earth was a multiday affair. The spacecraft detached frm Tianhe Wednesday (Sept.15) at 8:56 p.m. EDT, accrding t a statement released by the China Manned Space Engineering Office (CMSEO). Shenzhu 12 then perfrmed a rendezvus test with Tianhe, which was cmplete by 1:38 a. m.EDT Thursday (Sept.16), CMSEO fficials said in anther update.
During their time in rbit,the Shenzhu 12 astrnauts snapped sme amazing phts f Earth and carried ut a variety f scientific experiments.

The vaccine (疫苗) news cntinues t seem very encuraging. Britain started its mass vaccinatin effrt and the U. S. isn’t far behind. But there is still ne dark clud hanging ver the vaccines that many peple dn’t yet understand. The vaccines will be much less effective at preventing death and illness if they are intrduced int a ppulatin where the crnavirus is still severe-as is nw the case in the U.S.
A vaccine is like a fire hse (消防龙头). A vaccine that is 95 percent effective, as Mderna’s and Pfizer’s versins appear t be, is a pwerful fire hse. But the size f a fire is still a bigger determinant f hw much destructin ccurs.
At the current level f infectin in the U. S.(abut 160,000 cnfirmed new infectins per day), a vaccine that is 95 percent effective — distributed at the expected pace — wuld still leave a terrible tll (伤亡人数) after it was intrduced. Almst 36 millin r s Americans have caught the virus, and mre than 600,000 have died. This is far wrse than the tll in a different situatin where the vaccine was nly 50 percent effective. Hwever, it’s wrth pausing fr a mment n this cmparisn. If the U.S. maintained its current infectin rate and Mderna and Pfizer annunced that their vaccines were nly 50 percent effective, a lt f peple wuld panic.
But the reality we have is actually wrse. Hw culd this be? N vaccine can get rid f a pandemic immediately, just as n fire hse can put ut a frest fire. While the vaccine is being distributed, the virus cntinues t d damage.
There is ne psitive way t lk at this: Measures that reduce the virus’s spread — like mask-wearing, scial distancing and rapid-result testing — can still have great cnsequences. They will save many lives in cming mnths.
24．Accrding t the passage,what is the public’s attitude t the effects f the vaccine?
A．Critical.
B．Optimistic.
C．Wrred.
D．Neutral.
25．Hw des the authr mainly present his argument?
A．By giving definitins.
B．By classifying facts.
C．By drawing cmparisns.
D．By appealing t emtins.
26．We can infer frm Paragraph 3 that ________.
A．fewer peple will die if the infectin rate is lwer
B．the US have cntrlled the spread f the crnavirus
C．the death tll in the next mnths will be reduced a lt
D．the vaccines are less effective than expected
27．Which des the authr think is a better way t save lives?
A．Imprving the effectiveness f the vaccines.
B．Prducing a greater variety f vaccines.
C．Lking at the situatin in a psitive way.
D．Wearing masks and practicing scial distancing.

Papua New Guinea is an island natin nrth f Australia with a ppulatin f mre than 9, 100. 000 peple. It is recgnized fr its cultural diversity, as mst f its ppulatin lives in traditinal indigenus (土著的)cmmunities.A result f this is that there are mre than 850 active languages in the cuntry tday．
The earliest family f languages in the cuntry, the Papua family appeared rughly 40, 000 years ag. The key t this language diversity is the islatinist (孤立主义的) tendencies f the tribes (部落) within Papua New Guinea. Tribes never made cntact with ne anther, s each different language faced little risk f mixing with ther languages r being replaced.
This changed with the arrival f Eurpeans in the 19th century. They intrduced the peple f apua New Guinea t English and ther Eurpean languages. The cmbinatin f English and native languages has resulted in a frm f language called Tk Pisin, which is the mst cmmn language in the cuntry. Speaking Tk Pisin and English can help a yung Papua New Guinean find mre pprtunities utside f their villages.
Hwever, the disadvantage is that with mre peple speaking Tk Pisin r English, many f the indigenus languages are in danger. A study f indigenus languages in Papua New Guinea fund that nly 58% f students culd speak an indigenus language. Meanwhile, 91% f their parents were fluent in their native tngues. If this pace cntinues, many f these languages are at risk. Sme f Papua New Guinea’s languages are already in vulnerable places with fewer than 100 knwn speakers.
Each language represents a piece f culture that culd nt be replaced if every speaker dies ut. T help keep these languages alive, linguists (语言学家) have wrked with indigenus Papua New Guineans t create dictinaries and grammatical guides. Technlgy is used t recrd the language, meaning that even if the last knwn speaker f a language dies, evidence f the tngue still exists. While this can help keep a language frm dying, teaching indigenus languages in lcal schls can truly keep the languages alive.
35．What has led t the language diversity in Papua New Guinea?
A．Many freigners’ arrival in histry.
B．Lcal gvernments’ encuragement.
C．The large ppulatin in this small cuntry.
D．The lack f cmmunicatin between tribes.
36．What d we knw abut Tk Pisin?
A．It is usually spken ut f the cuntry.
B．It was invented cmpletely by Eurpeans.
C．It cntributes t spreading native languages.
D．It is ppular amng the yunger generatin.
37．What des the underlined wrd “vulnerable” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A．Especially imprtant.
B．Able t be easily hurt.
C．Different in sme way.
D．In a psitin f authrity.
38．What is the last paragraph mainly abut?

Shenzhu 12 launched n June 16 and arrived seven hurs later at Tianhe ( “Harmny f the Heavens” ), the cre mdule f China’s Earth-rbiting space statin. The Shenzhu 12 crew, cmmanded by Nie, spent 90 days abard Tianhe, staying alft abut three times lnger than any previus Chinese crewed spaceflight.
Shenzhu 12’s retum t Earth was a multiday affair. The spacecraft detached frm Tianhe Wednesday (Sept.15) at 8:56 p.m. EDT, accrding t a statement released by the China Manned Space Engineering Office (CMSEO). Shenzhu 12 then perfrmed a rendezvus test with Tianhe, which was cmplete by 1:38 a. m.EDT Thursday (Sept.16), CMSEO fficials said in anther update.
During their time in rbit,the Shenzhu 12 astrnauts snapped sme amazing phts f Earth and carried ut a variety f scientific experiments. They als perfrmed tw spacewalks designed t help get the 54-ft-lng (16.6 meters) Tianhe fully up and running and ready fr future visits, which will be frequent ver the cming mnths.
Fr example, China is expected t send the rbtic Tianzhu 3 carg spacecraft tward Tianhe arund Sept.20. And the next crewed missin t the mdule, the six-mnth-lng Shenzhu 13, is apparently scheduled t launch in mid-Octber. (Exact target dates are hard t cme by with Chinese missins, because the natin tends nt t annunce many details f its spaceflight plans in advance.)

The vaccine (疫苗) news cntinues t seem very encuraging. Britain started its mass vaccinatin effrt and the U. S. isn’t far behind. But there is still ne dark clud hanging ver the vaccines that many peple dn’t yet understand. The vaccines will be much less effective at preventing death and illness if they are intrduced int a ppulatin where the crnavirus is still severe-as is nw the case in the U.S.
A vaccine is like a fire hse (消防龙头). A vaccine that is 95 percent effective, as Mderna’s and Pfizer’s versins appear t be, is a pwerful fire hse. But the size f a fire is still a bigger determinant f hw much destructin ccurs.
At the current level f infectin in the U. S.(abut 160,000 cnfirmed new infectins per day), a vaccine that is 95 percent effective — distributed at the expected pace — wuld still leave a terrible tll (伤亡人数) after it was intrduced. Almst 36 millin r s Americans have caught the virus, and mre than 600,000 have died. This is far wrse than the tll in a different situatin where the vaccine was nly 50 percent effective. Hwever, it’s wrth pausing fr a mment n this cmparisn. If the U.S. maintained its current infectin rate and Mderna and Pfizer annunced that their vaccines were nly 50 percent effective, a lt f peple wuld panic.
But the reality we have is actually wrse. Hw culd this be? N vaccine can get rid f a pandemic immediately, just as n fire hse can put ut a frest fire. While the vaccine is being distributed, the virus cntinues t d damage.
There is ne psitive way t lk at this: Measures that reduce the virus’s spread — like mask-wearing, scial distancing and rapid-result testing — can still have great cnsequences. They will save many lives in cming mnths.
24．Accrding t the passage,what is the public’s attitude t the effects f the vaccine?
A．Critical.
B．Optimistic.
C．Wrred.
D．Neutral.
25．Hw des the authr mainly present his argument?
A．By giving definitins.
B．By classifying facts.
C．By drawing cmparisns.
D．By appealing t emtins.
26．We can infer frm Paragraph 3 that ________.
A．fewer peple will die if the infectin rate is lwer
B．the US have cntrlled the spread f the crnavirus
C．the death tll in the next mnths will be reduced a lt
D．the vaccines are less effective than expected
27．Which des the authr think is a better way t save lives?
A．Imprving the effectiveness f the vaccines.
B．Prducing a greater variety f vaccines.
C．Lking at the situatin in a psitive way.
D．Wearing masks and practicing scial distancing.

It shwed things like the chicks being fed in the nests as the parents carried in caterpillars (毛毛虫). After three mnths, I had 2, 000 subscribers.”
Jhn decided t put a final vide tgether and keep it as shrt as pssible-shwing the birds ging int the nests, the eggs hatching, and the chicks fledging(长羽毛).
Nw despite the huge glbal success f the vides, Jhn is unlikely t make enugh fr a nest egg f his wn. He still needs t struggle fr his family. But sme peple say they find it quite relaxing and genuinely fascinated by Jhn’s vides.

Papua New Guinea is an island natin nrth f Australia with a ppulatin f mre than 9, 100. 000 peple. It is recgnized fr its cultural diversity, as mst f its ppulatin lives in traditinal indigenus (土著的)cmmunities.A result f this is that there are mre than 850 active languages in the cuntry tday．
The earliest family f languages in the cuntry, the Papua family appeared rughly 40, 000 years ag. The key t this language diversity is the islatinist (孤立主义的) tendencies f the tribes (部落) within Papua New Guinea. Tribes never made cntact with ne anther, s each different language faced little risk f mixing with ther languages r being replaced.
This changed with the arrival f Eurpeans in the 19th century. They intrduced the peple f apua New Guinea t English and ther Eurpean languages. The cmbinatin f English and native languages has resulted in a frm f language called Tk Pisin, which is the mst cmmn language in the cuntry. Speaking Tk Pisin and English can help a yung Papua New Guinean find mre pprtunities utside f their villages.
Hwever, the disadvantage is that with mre peple speaking Tk Pisin r English, many f the indigenus languages are in danger. A study f indigenus languages in Papua New Guinea fund that nly 58% f students culd speak an indigenus language. Meanwhile, 91% f their parents were fluent in their native tngues. If this pace cntinues, many f these languages are at risk. Sme f Papua New Guinea’s languages are already in vulnerable places with fewer than 100 knwn speakers.
Each language represents a piece f culture that culd nt be replaced if every speaker dies ut. T help keep these languages alive, linguists (语言学家) have wrked with indigenus Papua New Guineans t create dictinaries and grammatical guides. Technlgy is used t recrd the language, meaning that even if the last knwn speaker f a language dies, evidence f the tngue still exists. While this can help keep a language frm dying, teaching indigenus languages in lcal schls can truly keep the languages alive.
35．What has led t the language diversity in Papua New Guinea?
A．Many freigners’ arrival in histry.
B．Lcal gvernments’ encuragement.
C．The large ppulatin in this small cuntry.
D．The lack f cmmunicatin between tribes.
36．What d we knw abut Tk Pisin?
A．It is usually spken ut f the cuntry.
B．It was invented cmpletely by Eurpeans.
C．It cntributes t spreading native languages.
D．It is ppular amng the yunger generatin.
37．What des the underlined wrd “vulnerable” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A．Especially imprtant.
B．Able t be easily hurt.
C．Different in sme way.
D．In a psitin f authrity.
38．What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A．The imprtance f ancient languages.

38．主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“T help keep these languages alive, linguists (语言学家) have wrked with indigenus Papua New Guineans t create dictinaries and grammatical guides.

While this can help keep a language frm dying, teaching indigenus languages in lcal schls can truly keep the languages alive.(为了帮助保持这些语言的生命力，语言学家们与巴布亚新几内亚土著人民合作，编写字典和语法指南。科技被用来记录这种语言，这意味着即使最后一个说这种语言的人去世了，这种语言的证据仍然存在。虽然这有助于防止一种语言消亡，但在当地学校教授土著语言可以真正让这些语言存活下)”可知，本段主要介绍了保存这些濒临消失的语言所付出的努力。故选C。
