A tiny dinsaur’s final mments became science’s greatest treasure when its feathered tail was trapped in tree resin 99 millin years ag, creating the first dinsaur material ever fund preserved in amber.
Palentlgist Lida Xing discvered this extrardinary fssil at a Myanmar amber market in 2016. It was initially dismissed as plant material befre revealing its true nature under scientific examinatin.
The match - stick - sized specimen cntains eight vertebrae frm a juvenile celursaur, a sparrw - sized dinsaur related t Tyrannsaurus rex. Published in Current Bilgy, the discvery revlutinized ur understanding f dinsaur anatmy by preserving features impssible t study in traditinal rck fssils.
The amber captured nt just bnes, but sft tissue, skin, and intricate feathers in perfect three - dimensinal detail. “It’s amazing t see all the details f a dinsaur tail—the bnes, flesh, skin, and feathers—and t imagine hw this little fellw gt his tail caught in the resin,” explains c - authr Prfessr Mike Bentn frm the University f Bristl.
The feathers, chestnut brwn n tp and white underneath, lacked the central shaft fund in mdern bird feathers, suggesting they were rnamental rather than functinal fr flight. Mst remarkably, traces f ferrus irn arund the bnes indicate remnants f the dinsaur’s bld, while evidence suggests the animal was still alive when it became trapped in the sticky resin.
This preservatin has prvided scientists with their first glimpse f hw feathers were actually arranged n living dinsaurs, filling crucial gaps in ur understanding f the evlutinary link between dinsaurs and mdern birds.

9900万年前，一只小型恐龙生命的最后时刻，因羽毛尾巴被困在树脂中，意外成为科学界最珍贵的宝藏——这是首次在琥珀中发现保存完好的恐龙遗骸。
古生物学家邢立达于2016年在缅甸的一个琥珀市场上发现了这一非凡化石。最初它被误认为是植物材料，直到科学检测揭示出它的真实本质。
这个火柴棒大小的样本中，包含了一只幼年虚骨龙类恐龙的八节脊椎骨，这种麻雀大小的恐龙与霸王龙有亲缘关系。这项研究发表在《当代生物学》上，它通过保存传统岩石化石无法呈现的特征，彻底革新了我们对恐龙解剖结构的理解。
这块琥珀不仅封存了骨骼，还保存了软组织、皮肤以及精细复杂的羽毛，三维细节完美无缺。“能够看到恐龙尾巴的全部细节——骨骼、肌肉、皮肤和羽毛——真是令人惊叹，令人不禁想象这小家伙是如何把尾巴卡进树脂中的。”合著作者、布里斯托大学的迈克·本顿教授如此解释。
这些羽毛顶部呈栗褐色、底部为白色，缺乏现代鸟类羽毛中常见的中轴，表明它们更可能是用于装饰而非飞行功能。最令人震惊的是，骨骼周围存在亚铁元素的痕迹，表明保留了恐龙血液的残迹，同时也有证据显示，这只恐龙在被困进黏性树脂时仍然活着。
这种保存方式首次让科学家得以窥见活体恐龙羽毛的实际排列方式，填补了我们在恐龙与现代鸟类进化关联方面的关键知识空白。
【词汇积累】
•resin：n. 树脂

【知识拓展】
琥珀化石：琥珀是一种有机宝石，其形成需要经过漫长的时间，通常是树脂滴落后包裹住各种物体，经过地质作用掩埋地下，逐渐石化而成。除了恐龙尾巴，琥珀中还曾发现过昆虫、植物等多种生物化石，为研究古代生态环境和生物演化提供了珍贵资料。
恐龙与鸟类的进化关系：越来越多的化石证据表明，鸟类是由恐龙进化而来的。本文中提到的羽毛特征就是重要证据之一，此外，恐龙和鸟类在骨骼结构、生理特征等方面也存在诸多相似之处。

A nvel design apprach t gardening has been gaining in ppularity wrldwide. Referred t as matrix planting, this apprach aims fr nature t d a lt mre f the heavy lifting in the garden, and even sme f the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and pwer tls, it’s based n an elegantly simple principle: t garden mre like nature des.
The cncept was brn when German city planners sught t plant large areas f parkland after Wrld War II in a reprducible way that wuld need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that culd be used mdularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are gruped s that they will grw tgether abve and belw grund, frming a cperative ecsystem that cnserves water and discurages weeds.
Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudlf’s gardens ppularized this style, adding artistic flavrs t the planting mixes while playing with clr and frm, including fur-seasn interest and serving the needs f wildlife. Beautiful year-rund, they invite yu t enjy the smallest detail, frm the sund f grasses in the gentle wind t the sculpture f dd-lking seed heads.
It takes a lt f thught t lk this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first cnsideratin. Led by the cncept f “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjy the same sil, sun and weather cnditins, and arrange them accrding t their patterns f grwth.
The benefits are substantial fr bth gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s eclgy can develp well. Established matrix gardens shuld nt need the life supprt we give mst gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Cmpared t traditinal garden plts, they increase carbn absrptin, reduce strmwater runff and bst habitat and bidiversity significantly.
28. What des the underlined wrd “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Running ut f.B. Keeping away frm.
C. Putting up with.D. Taking advantage f.
29. Why was the idea f matrix planting intrduced?
A. T cntrl weeds in large gardens.B. T bring in freign species f plants.
C. T cnserve sil and water resurces.D. T develp lw-maintenance parkland.
30. Which f the fllwing best describes Piet Oudlf’s gardens?
A. Traditinal.B. Odd-lking.
C. Tasteful.D. Well-prtected.
31. Which f the fllwing can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The future f gardening is WILD.B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS.

【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型园艺设计方法——矩阵种植。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“Referred t as matrix planting, this apprach aims fr nature t d a lt mre f the heavy lifting in the garden, and even sme f the designing.(这种被称为矩阵种植的方法旨在让大自然在花园中承担更多繁重的工作，甚至承担一些设计工作)”可知，矩阵种植是让大自然自身承接更多的工作；结合常识和划线词所在句“Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and pwer tls, it’s based n an elegantly simple principle: t garden mre like nature des.(Eschewing化肥和电动工具，它基于一个极其简单的原则：更像大自然那样进行园艺种植)”中“t garden mre like nature des”可推知，要像大自然那样进行园艺种植，让大自然自身承接更多的工作，就不需要使用化肥和电动工具。所以划线词“Eschewing”的意思是“避开、远离”，与“Keeping away frm.”同义。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The cncept was brn when German city planners sught t plant large areas f parkland after Wrld War II in a reprducible way that wuld need minimal maintenance.(这个概念诞生于二战后，当时德国城市规划者试图以一种可复制且需要最少维护的方式种植大片公园绿地)”可知，引入矩阵种植的想法是为了开发低维护成本的公园绿地。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudlf’s gardens ppularized this style, adding artistic flavrs t the planting mixes while playing with clr and frm, including fur seasn interest and serving the needs f wildlife.(荷兰植物学家兼设计师Piet Oudlf的花园推广了这种风格，在种植组合中增添了艺术气息，同时玩转色彩和形态，四季都有看点，还满足了野生动物的需求)”可知，Piet Oudlf的花园有艺术气息，很有品味。故选C项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中“Referred t as matrix planting, this apprach aims fr nature t d a lt mre f the heavy lifting in the garden, and even sme f the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and pwer tls, it’s based n an elegantly simple principle: t garden mre like nature des.(这种被称为矩阵种植的方法旨在让大自然在花园中承担更多繁重的工作，甚至承担一些设计工作。它避开化肥和电动工具，基于一个极其简单的原则：更像大自然那样进行园艺种植)”和最后一段中“With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s eclgy can develp well. Established matrix gardens shuld nt need the life supprt we give mst gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Cmpared t traditinal garden plts, they increase carbn absrptin, reduce strmwater runff and bst habitat and bidiversity significantly.(随着人类投入的大幅减少，花园的生态系统可以良好发展。成熟的矩阵花园不需要我们给予大多数花园的维持手段：化肥、分株、定期浇水。与传统花园地块相比，它们增加了碳吸收，减少了雨水径流，并显著改善了栖息地和生物多样性)”可知，文章主要介绍了矩阵种植这种新型园艺设计方法，它让花园更接近自然、野生的状态，未来园艺可能会朝着这种更自然、野生的方向发展。故A项“The future f gardening is WILD(园艺的未来是自然的)”能概括文章主旨，适合做文章标题。故选A项。
命题特点
考查“整体感知”能力：不聚焦细节，而是要求提炼文章（或段落）的核心观点、主要内容，或概括作者的写作目的。
提问方式固定：常见设问如：What is the main idea f the passage?What des the passage mainly talk abut?The purpse f the passage is t ______.Which f the fllwing can best summarize the passage?
覆盖全文或段落：题目可能针对全文主旨，也可能针对某段主旨（需注意题干限定，如“Paragraph 2 mainly discusses”）。
命题规律
主旨句常“藏”在关键位置：
全文主旨：多位于首段（开门见山）、尾段（总结升华），或首尾段呼应处；若文章为“问题-分析-解决”结构，主旨可能在“解决方法”部分。
段落主旨：多位于段首（总起句）或段尾（总结句），少数在段中（转折后引出核心）。
与文章结构强相关：
说明文/议论文：常通过“观点+论据”展开，主旨即核心观点；
记叙文：主旨常是故事传达的道理、情感，或对人物/事件的评价，需结合情节发展和结尾升华句判断。
避免“细节干扰”：正确选项需涵盖全文核心，而非某一细节（即使细节多次出现，若未贯穿全文，也非主旨）。
主旨大意题解题思维
定位“主旨句”：优先读首尾段、各段首尾句，标记含“观点、总结、转折（but/hwever）”的句子，这类句子往往是主旨句的关键来源。
串联“核心话题”：若无明显主旨句，需梳理全文高频出现的核心名词（或同义替换词），结合各段内容，总结这些内容围绕“什么话题”展开——核心话题+作者对话题的态度/观点，即为主旨。
验证“全面性”：正确选项需覆盖全文主要内容（而非某一段细节），同时不超出文章讨论范围。
主旨大意干扰项特征
以偏概全：仅涉及文章某一段的细节，或某个例子的内容，未涵盖全文核心。
过度延伸：超出文章内容，加入原文未提及的信息或作者未表达的观点。
偷换概念：将原文核心话题的关键词替换为近义但不同义的词，或歪曲原文观点。
无关信息：选项内容与文章话题完全无关，或仅为背景信息，并非作者要表达的核心。
细节放大：将原文中次要的细节（如举例、解释）当作主要内容，颠倒主次。

【2024届四川省绵阳南山中学高三二诊热身模拟试题】
Saring t 29, 035 feet, the famus Munt Everest had lng been cnsidered unclimbable due t the freezing weather, the bvius ptential fall frm cliffs and the effects f the extreme high altitude, ften called “muntain sickness.” But that was t be changed by Edmund Hillary.
When he was invited t jin the British Everest expeditin in 1953, Edmund Hillary was a highly capable climber. The glacier-cvered peaks in his hmetwn in New Zealand prved a perfect training grund fr the Himalaya. It was his furth Himalayan expeditin in just ver tw years and he was at the peak f fitness.
On May 28, 1953, Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Nrgay, an experienced Sherpa (夏尔巴人), set ut and reached the Suth Summit by 9 a.m. next day. But after that, the ridge (山脊) slightly fell befre rising suddenly in a rcky spur (尖坡) abut 17 meters high just befre the true summit. The frmatin is difficult t climb due t its extreme pitch because a mistake wuld be deadly. Scratching at the snw with his ax, Hillary managed t vercme this enrmus bstacle, later t be knwn as the Hillary Step.
At 11: 30 a. m., the tw men fund themselves standing at the tp f the wrld. “Nt until we were abut 50 feet f the tp was I ever cmpletely cnvinced that we were actually ging t reach the summit.” Hillary later recunted, “Of curse I was very, very pleased t be n the summit, but my first thught was a little bit f surprise. After all, this is the ambitin f all muntaineers.”
Emerging as the first t summit Munt Everest, Hillary cntinued by helping explre Antarctica, and establishing the Himalayan Trust (信托基金), thrugh which he prvided a number f beneficial services t the Himalayan peples. He als left a sizeable legacy that muntain climbers have chased ever since. As a yung climber said, “It was nt just Hillary and Tenzing that reached the summit f Munt Everest. It was all f humanity. Suddenly, all f us culd g.”
24．What made Edmund Hillary a capable climber n the 1953 expeditin?
A．His undisputed reputatin.B．His previus training n Munt Everest.
C．His remarkable physical cnditin.D．His exceptinal ability t adapt t the cld.
25．What des the Hillary Step refer t?
A．A steep spur f rck Hillary cnquered.B．An ax Hillary used t scratch snw.
C．A mistake Hillary avided making.D．A sudden fall f a ridge Hillary skipped.
26．What was Hillary’s initial feeling upn reaching the summit f Munt Everest?
A．Overwhelming jy.B．A tuch f astnishment.

The sales temptatin: Blue-light-blcking glasses are suppsed t prtect eyes frm the effects f shrt wavelength light emitting frm ur smartphnes, cmputer screens and LED lights. Given hw much time we spend n ur devices, this sunds like a smart investment, right? After all, eye strain (疲劳) is a real issue and can lead t pr sleep and even eye diseases. The glasses can cst 15 dllars all the way up t several hundred dllars. But d they wrk?
Elizabeth Esparaz, an phthalmlgist (眼科专家) in Cleveland, Ohi, says the science that manufacturers share as they prmte these glasses can be cnfusing. Fr starters, blue light is nt just abut tech devices, and it’s nt always bad. “The sun emits a much higher intensity f blue light than human-made devices, f curse, and it’s actually beneficial,” says Dr. Esparaz. It helps ur md, alertness and sleep-wake cycle.
The prblem is blue light at night: It cntrls the release f melatnin (褪黑素). “Melatnin helps regulate ur circadian rhythms (生理节奏) and makes us sleepy,” says Dr. Esparaz. S in thery, wearing blue-light-blcking glasses shuld help peple wh watch mvies in bed r read frm a table t at night t avid sleeplessness. A 2021 review study frm the University f Oklahma fund that peple affected by sleep disrders, jet lag and shift wrk fell asleep faster after using these glasses.
As fr eye strain, a 2021 Australian study shwed that thse wearing the glasses did nt experience less eye strain than thse using clear glasses. And a 2018 review study als by Australian researchers, fund insufficient evidence that they prevent certain eye diseases.
“These glasses aren’t ging t be harmful,” says Dr. Esparaz. But, she adds, a lack f standardizatin in the industry means there’s n way t knw if ne pair is better than anther. A mre reliable slutin: Turn n the blue-light-filtering functin n yur devices and limit screen time befre bed. T help with eye strain, Dr. Esparaz suggests taking breaks and using lubricating eye drps.
9．What can we learn abut blue light frm the first tw paragraphs?
A．It may facilitate sleep.B．It actually causes severe health issues.
C．It can be f benefit in sme aspects.D．It merely cmes frm digital devices.
10．Wh will benefit frm the glasses accrding t the studies?
A．Peple under great pressureB．Peple experiencing eye strain
C．Peple with eye diseasesD．Peple suffering frm sleep disrders
11．Australian studies fund that wearing blue-light-blcking glasses .
A．desn’t cntribute t less eye strainB．benefits thse affected by shift wrk
C．is nt harmful t eyesightD．helps prevent eye disease

D yu smetimes wish there was a quick and easy way t d yur hmewrk? Well a new artificial intelligence technlgy has been released and peple are cncerned that it culd lead t students cheating n their wrk.
ChatGPT is an nline service which can nt nly answer questins but als write realistic schl essays just like humans. 26 .
But what exactly is ChatGPT and hw culd it affect the future f hmewrk? ChatGPT was released late last year by cmpany OpenAI, which was funded by Eln Musk. 27 , answering questins frm the user. The nline chatbt has been trained n lts f infrmatin and data frm the internet - it can have a human-like cnversatin answering questins, admitting mistakes and rejecting any inapprpriate questins.
Experts say it can be used t write essays, stries, pems and even slve cmputer cding. 28 , which OpenAI admit. Smetimes it writes answers which are incrrect r dn’t make sense, and it ccasinally guesses what the user has asked it, rather than asking mre fllw-up questins t understand the questin better.
What are peple saying abut it?
29 . Sme think students might use it t cheat whereas thers think they shuld use the tl in the classrm t help children learn.
30 . They argue that, just like when the calculatr r Ggle were created, peple were unsure at first, but if teachers intrduce the technlgy and teach pupils the benefits but als the dwnfalls that culd help their learning.
There are the prblems with ChatGPT. CEO f OpenAI, Sam Altman tweeted last year: “ChatGPT is incredibly limited…it’s a mistake t be relying n it fr anything imprtant right nw.”

Passage7
（2024届·四川绵阳一模）
Arund Thanksgiving, I flew t visit my family. A wman acrss the aisle 81 t push her suitcase int the tight verhead bin. When we landed, she was pulling, but the suitcase didn’t 82 . I asked if I culd help, 83 she replied, “It’ll cme. I gt it in, and there has t be a way t get it ut.”
Her calmness and cnfidence 84 me, striking me as a recipe fr cultivating (培养) resilience (抗逆力) in life. Resilience is the ability t 85 challenging circumstances, refcus and find ways back int a psitive life. The wman’s reactin t her 86 luggage was a beautiful example f cultivating resilience: “ 87 seeing crises as unslvable prblems.”
The 88 situatin might nt be a “crisis”, but yu knw hw 89 a plane aisle can be when everyne is trying t get ff the plane. The wman kept herself 90 by recgnizing her prblem had a slutin.
The 91 reminded me f smething that happened t me this past fall, when I tk a slitary (单独的) hike alng a rcky cean path. I was enjying myself in the fresh air, feeling 92 as I picked my way frm rck t rck and cngratulating myself when I reached the end f the dck. Then I turned arund and saw hw 93 I had traveled, I felt myself slipping int nervus self-dubt. What if I 94 and twisted my ankle?
I tk a deep breath and, like the wman n the 95 , realized with relief that I culd certainly make it 96 . When I finally stepped back nt the shre, I nt nly felt 97 , but als cnfident and accmplished.
When 98 plant seeds f “I can’t” in yur mind, maybe yu’ll remember the wman n the plane. Wherever life has brught yu, cnsider that there is a 99 t cme back t yurself. Yu have the pwer f resilience within yu whenever yu are 100 it.

Using needles t help life’s energy flw
Fr thusands f years, the Chinese have relieved pain and cured disease thrugh acupuncture (针灸). 36 (evlve) frm the discvery that using stne needles t prick specific pints n the surface f the bdy culd relieve pain and symptms, acupuncture has becme 37 integral part f traditinal Chinese medicine, in line with the philsphy that prmtes the harmnius cexistence f humans with nature.
Accrding t Recrds f the Grand Histrian, 38 (write) by Sima Qian abut 2,100 years ag, Bian Que, a highly skilled 39 (physical) during the Warring States Perid (475-221 BC), was famus fr having saved a prince frm “death” by using needles t stimulate the Baihui acupint n the head f the uncnscius man.
Accrding t TCM (中医), there are a dzen meridians (经脉) in the human bdy, 40 the qi, r life energy, circulates t nurish the rgans. Cld, infectins r diseases can result in blcking f the energy, and s stimulating the acupints can unblck stagnant (不流动的) qi, restre nrmal circulatin and imprve health. Tday, acupuncture is still 41 (wide) used in China.
In 2010, UNESCO inscribed acupuncture and mxibustin f TCM n the Representative List f Intangible Cultural Heritage f Humanity. Yet, the practice is nt just cultural and histrical, 42 a medical technique widely used and researched tday.
Fr years, 43 the clear therapeutic effects f acupuncture in treating many diseases, there were few cnvincing studies that explained hw acupint stimulatin wrked, r what meridians were anatmically speaking, s the technique always seemed smewhat 44 (mystery).
Hwever, as scientific research f acupuncture 45 (grw) in recent years, prducing gd quality results, the technique is gaining tractin arund the wrld.
