Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an old Chinese form of treatment in which thin needles （针） are stuck into a patient's head，face，arms and other parts of the body to reduce pain.It first appeared in China more than 2，000 years ago.Needles for acupuncture are made of metal and about as thick as a human hair.They usually go less than one centimeter into the skin.During the treatment the acupuncturist may twist needles or send electricity through them.The patients lie down and rest for a short time and then the needles are removed.Patients normally feel more energetic and relaxed after a treatment.

29．（10分）Climate （气候） change is influencing animals in a lot of different ways.Scientists have noticed a common trend （趋势） across all kinds of animals：they're getting smaller — physically smaller in size.
Scientists have studied many different animal species from wild sheep to woodrats over the past 40 years.But they paid more attention to the North American songbirds.In 2019，researchers at the University of Michigan published a set of data （数据），which showed that the body sizes for quite a few species had actually shrunk （缩小）.
But when Justin Baldwin，a graduate student at Washington University took a closer look at the data and he noticed something different.Birds with larger brains are shrinking at slower rates （比率） than birds with smaller brains.
Baldwin and his team had a feeling that birds' behavior might be playing a role. "In birds，species with bigger brains seem to be smarter and can change their behavior based on their environment.That means that they might be able to protect themselves from increasing temperatures.Bigger﹣brained birds，for example，might adjust （调整） their behavior and stay in the shade when it's hot，" says Carlos Botero，an assistant professor.
Baldwin's team found it was still true even after controlling other factors like generation time and mutation （变异） rate.But Botero also says， "Though these bigger﹣brained bird species can temporarily （临时地） protect themselves from warmer temperatures，it doesn't mean they are able to fit in with any kind of change forever."

（2）When did researchers from the University of Michigan publish a set of data？
　 　
（3）According to Justin Baldwin's team，which birds are shrinking at slower rates？

But when Rena was 14，her father got a new job which required him to work from home.So the house had to keep quiet all the time.However，Chloe was very yappy.So the parents decided to give up Chloe.
Rena was so sad，but she could do nothing about the matter.She had to leave it at the local animal center and hoped that it would find a new home with people who loved her as much as she had.
Twelve years had passed since Rena last saw Chloe.Rena grew up，got married，and had a child of her own.But in the bottom of her heart she still felt her family was quite incomplete.Remembering the joy that Chloe had brought her as a kid，Rena wanted her daughter to experience the same feeling.And then one day she saw a post on Facebook.It said an elderly dog needed a new home.The dog in the photograph looked a lot like Chloe — and she was also named Chloe.Immediately she decided：She would adopt （收养） this dog.
When she met the new Chloe，Rena was surprised to find it seemed so familiar.And the dog appeared to feel the same way about Rena. "She ran up to me and started licking my face，" she said. "I'm crying.I just knew that it was my Chloe."
Rena's mom remembered there was a way to test：Their Chloe had been fixed a microchip （芯片） as a puppy.They found the ID number，then Rena took the new Chloe to the vet to be scanned.Sure enough，she also had a microchip and the numbers were a perfect match.

【解答】（1）考查名词。句意：因为能源危机，中国制造的电热毯在网上很多德国人中很受欢迎。根据句意并结合所给词汇可知，这里应该填某人，只有German（德国人）符合，前面有a lot of（很多），这里用其复数形式Germans。故填：Germans。
（2）考查名词。句意：在你认真考虑之前不要匆忙做出决定。分析句子并结合所给选项可知，该句含有动词词组make a decision（做出决定），用动词decide的名词形式decision。故填：decision。
（3）考查名词。句意：使我们吃惊的是，这位老者在他九十多岁的时候仍然看起来很有活力。根据句意并结合所给词汇可知，这里指的是：在他九十多岁的时候，用in his nineties，用ninety的复数形式nineties。故填：nineties。

（2）句意：多亏了新政策，现我的班里没有学生熬夜去完成作业了。分析句子并结合所给选项，只有stay可以和后面的up构成：stay up（熬夜）符合题意，这是客观事实的陈述，用一般现在时，主语是单数，谓语动词用单数形式。故填：stays。
（3）句意：﹣﹣这个小男孩对他朋友说了什么？ ﹣﹣他说他一得到新的生日礼物就将会展示给他朋友。根据句意并结合所给选项，此处指的是：把礼物向朋友"展示"，用show；又含有as soon as引导的时间状语从句的主从复合句的时态符合"主将从现"原则，从句为一般现在时，那么主句用一般将来时。故填：will show。
（4）句意：﹣﹣艾米为什么看起来如此担心？ ﹣﹣最近她参加了学校美术队的选拔，现在正在等结果呢。根据句意并结合所给选项，此处指的是：参加"选拔"用try out；又recently为现在完成时标志，所以这里用现在完成时，主语she是第三人称单数，助动词用has，try的Vpp为tried。故填：has tried。
（5）句意：在过去，很多家长比起劳动教育来更喜欢给孩子们选择艺术教育，但是现在他们认为劳动教育也很重要。根据句意并结合所给选项，此处指的是：比起......来更喜欢......，用prefer...to...；又时间状语 in the past表明用一般过去时，prefer用其过去式形式preferred。故填：preferred。
【点评】根据句子大意和语境选择合适的单词，并用其正确的形式填入空白处，使补全后的句子意思通顺，语法正确，结构完整，注意单词的适当形式。

七、任务型阅读 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。
29．（10分）Climate （气候） change is influencing animals in a lot of different ways.Scientists have noticed a common trend （趋势） across all kinds of animals：they're getting smaller — physically smaller in size.
Scientists have studied many different animal species from wild sheep to woodrats over the past 40 years.But they paid more attention to the North American songbirds.In 2019，researchers at the University of Michigan published a set of data （数据），which showed that the body sizes for quite a few species had actually shrunk （缩小）.
But when Justin Baldwin，a graduate student at Washington University took a closer look at the data and he noticed something different.Birds with larger brains are shrinking at slower rates （比率） than birds with smaller brains.
Baldwin and his team had a feeling that birds' behavior might be playing a role. "In birds，species with bigger brains seem to be smarter and can change their behavior based on their environment.That means that they might be able to protect themselves from increasing temperatures.Bigger﹣brained birds，for example，might adjust （调整） their behavior and stay in the shade when it's hot，" says Carlos Botero，an assistant professor.
Baldwin's team found it was still true even after controlling other factors like generation time and mutation （变异） rate.But Botero also says， "Though these bigger﹣brained bird species can temporarily （临时地） protect themselves from warmer temperatures，it doesn't mean they are able to fit in with any kind of change forever."

（1）What has caused this common trend across all kinds of animals？
　Climate change.　
（2）When did researchers from the University of Michigan publish a set of data？
　In 2019.　
（3）According to Justin Baldwin's team，which birds are shrinking at slower rates？
　Birds with larger brains.　
（4）How might birds with bigger brains adjust their behavior based on the environment？
　They might adjust their behavior and stay in the shade when it's hot.　
（5）What information do Botero's words in the last paragraph imply （暗示）？ （自拟一句话作答）
　They are not able to fit in with any kind of change forever.　
【分析】文章介绍了气候变化以许多不同的方式影响着动物。尽管有大脑更大的鸟类可以暂时保护自己免受更高温度的影响，这并不意味着他们能够永远适应任何变化。
【解答】（1）根据Climate change is influencing animals in a lot of different ways.Scientists have noticed a common trend across all kinds of animals：they're getting smaller — physically smaller in size.（气候变化以许多不同的方式影响着动物。科学家们注意到一个共同的趋势：在所有种类的动物中：它们越来越小，体型越来越小。）可知，是因为气候变化。故填Climate change.
（2）根据In 2019，researchers at the University of Michigan published a set of data，which showed that the body sizes for quite a few species had actually shrunk.（2019年，密歇根大学的研究人员公布了一组数据，这表明相当一部分物种的体型实际上已经缩小了。）可知，是2019年公布的。故填In 2019.
（3）根据Birds with larger brains are shrinking at slower rates than birds with smaller brains.（大脑较大的鸟类比大脑较小的鸟类收缩速度慢）可知，是大脑较大的鸟类。故填Birds with larger brains.
（4）根据Bigger﹣brained birds，for example，might adjust their behavior and stay in the shade when it's hot.（例如，大脑较大的鸟类可能会调整自己的行为，在天气炎热时呆在阴凉处。）可知，它们可能会调整自己的行为，在天气炎热时呆在阴凉处。故填They might adjust their behavior and stay in the shade when it's hot.
（5）细节推理题。根据Though these bigger﹣brained bird species can temporarily protect themselves from warmer temperatures，it doesn't mean they are able to fit in with any kind of change forever.（尽管这些大脑更大的鸟类可以暂时保护自己免受更高温度的影响，这并不意味着他们能够永远适应任何变化。）可推出，他的话意味着他们不能够永远适应任何变化。故填They are not able to fit in with any kind of change forever.
【点评】主要考查学生的阅读理解能力及知识运用能力。答题时细节理解题可直接根据文中细节得出答案。
