I majr in Mechanical Engineering and Plitical Science. When smene hears what I study, I’m usually faced with tw reactins. First up is a small smile with the wrd “verachiever” n the tip f their tngue. The secnd is a lk f cnfusin, fllwed by an exaggerated (夸张的) “why?”. The shrt answer: I want t be a prblem slver, and engineering teaches me hw t becme that type f persn. In additin, I als want t be able t lk at the bigger picture.
It’s the beginning f a new year, and a lt f first-years have plans fr duble r triple majrs. Hwever, as mst f us quickly realize after that first fall semester, cllege is a lt!

The thing I wished smene tld me n day ne is if yu’re passinate abut smething, it’s nt ging t feel like wrk.

This may sund hard t accept, but if yu are duble r triple majring because yu think yu’re in a race with yur peers, yu’re nly running yurself int the grund.

What is ging t make yu impressive is the passin that yu have-whether it be in yur study, career, r smething else yur career and study will enable yu t d.
Always think abut yur “why” when it cmes t the schedule a duble r triple majr invlves. At the end f the day, it’s ging t be yu ding the hmewrk, s try t enjy what yu’re ding alng the ride fr what it’s wrth

As the new year appraches, crwds arund the wrld may be expecting bms and bangs t light up the sky. The appeal f firewrks culd fizzle ut with the grwing use f drnes (无人机) fr light shws, thugh.
Ollie Hwitt, a leader f SkyMagic, which used a team f 300 drnes t create a display fr Lndn’s new year celebratin last year, said demand had increased substantially. “We d think it’s ging t be smething that’s ever catching n, as ppsed t it being a shrt-lived srt f fashin peple have suddenly gt interested in. Drnes are reusable and there’s n plluting dust. In that sense they’re a very gd, sustainable ptin,” she said.
But nt everyne agrees. A spkespersn frm the British Firewrks Assciatin said drnes culd als pse envirnmental prblems. “Suggestins are that drnes have less f an impact n the envirnment, but we have serius cncerns abut electrical demand and use f lithium (锂) batteries which are knwn nt t be all that ‘green’,” they said.
An RSPCA spkespersn said that while drnes were a pssible idea t try t reduce the impact f displays n animals, there were dwnsides. “Drnes are nt withut their wn negative issues such as scaring hrses r crashing int birds, and can cause disturbance t animals and members f the public. It’s therefre imprtant fr their effects t be fully cnsidered and measures taken t minimize the chance f accidents,” they said.
Sme express the pinin that the use f firewrks and drnes dn’t exclude each ther. The sight, sund and gunpwder smell f firewrks will always prvide its wn unique excitement.
“We find firewrks wrk really well when teamed up with drnes. But we dn’t really see it as a ne-replacing-the-ther at all. We feel as if it’s just anther tl in the chest fr hw yu enliven the sky and what yu want t d with the shw yu’re putting n,” said Hwitt, nting that while firewrks give a lud, emtive, big perfrmance, drnes ffer the chance t tell stries in the sky by using a series f images.
28. What des the underlined phrase “fizzle ut” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Catch n.B. Create an impact.C. Wind up.D. Make a cmeback.
29. What des Hwitt think abut a drne display in Paragraph 2?
A. It’s definitely an upward trend.
B. It’ll get us t reflect n energy crisis.
C. It’s nthing but a temprary phenmenn.
D. It’ll excite the public curisity abut science.
30. Which f the fllwing may Hwitt suggest accrding t the last paragraph?
A. Prmting the prductin f drnes.B. Diversifying the functins f drnes.
C. Prhibiting the displays f firewrks.D. Staging drne shws as an additin.
31. In which sectin f a website can we read this text?

Sme evidence suggested humans first mved frm Africa int Eurasia (the land f Eurpe and Asia) abut 60, 000 years ag, quickly replacing ther early human species, such as Neanderthals and Denisvans, wh they may have met alng the way.
Hwever, recent discveries, including 100, 000-year-ld human teeth fund in a cave in China, have cluded this straightfrward statement. The latest find, a prehistric jawbne at the Misliya Cave in Israel nearly 200, 000 years ag, which is almst twice as ld as any Hm sapiens(智人) remains discvered utside Africa, where ur species was thught t have riginated frm, has added an unexpected twist.
The find suggests there were multiple waves f migratin acrss Eurpe and Asia and culd als mean mdern humans in the Middle East were interacting, and pssibly mating, with ther human species fr tens f thusands f years. “Misliya breaks the existing assumptins f the timing f the first knwn Hm sapiens in these regins,” said Chris Stringer, head f human rigins at the Natural Histry Museum in Lndn. “It’s imprtant in remving a lng-lasting limit n ur thinking.”
Prf. Hershkvitz, wh led the wrk said, “What Misliya tells us is that mdern humans left Africa nt 100, 000 years ag, but 200, 000 years ag. This is a revlutin in the way we understand the evlutin f ur wn species.” He als added that the recrd nw indicates that humans prbably travelled beynd the African cntinent whenever the climate allwed it. “I dn’t believe there was ne big departure frm Africa,” he said. “I think that thrughut hundreds f thusands f years humans were cming in and ut f Africa all the time.”
The discvery means mdern humans were ptentially meeting and interacting during a lnger perid with ther ancient human grups, prviding mre pprtunity fr cultural and bilgical exchanges. It als raises interesting questins abut the fate f the earliest mdern human pineers. Genetic data frm mdern-day ppulatins arund the wrld strngly suggest that everyne utside Africa can trace their ancestrs back t a grup that left arund 60, 000 years ag. S the inhabitants f the Misliya Cave are prbably nt the ancestrs f anyne alive tday, and scientists can nly guess why their branch f the family tree came t an end.
32. What des the Misliya discvery suggest?
A. Our ancestrs were pwerful and kind f strng.
B. The rigins f mdern humans are frm Eurpe.
C. Our ancestrs left Africa much earlier than thught.
D. Hm sapiens, Neanderthals and Denisvans nce lived tgether.
33. What des the underlined wrd “they” refer t in Paragraph 1?
A. Neanderthals and Denisvans.
B. Early human species living in Eurpe.
C. Ancient peple living in Africa all the time.
D. Peple first mving frm Africa int Eurasia.
34. What can be learned frm Prf. Hershkvitz’s wrds in Paragraph 4?
A. There was a large-scale human migratin frm Africa.
B. Climate was a big factr in human migratin frm Africa.
C. Human migratin was ccasinal in Africa 200, 000 years ag.
D. The Misliya find is against ur understanding f human evlutin.
35. What can we infer abut thse living in Misliya 200, 000 years ag accrding t the last paragraph?
A. They were ancestrs f peple living in China.
B. They left evidence fr their mysterius disappearance in histry.
C. They prbably cntributed little t present-day peple genetically
D. They culd be traced by their remains left n their travelling rute.

Pssible versin:
This summer hliday witnessed numerus visitrs t the “Meet the Chinese Opera” exhibitin in the city museum.
T cultivate citizens’ artistic taste, the museum exhibited many fantastic pictures f different peras, ranging frm Peking Opera, Yangzhu Opera t Kunqu Opera, bringing an audi-visual feast fr the art lvers. I enjyed every secnd f the exhibitin and was particularly impressed by the Peking Opera Legend f the White Snake, with which I gained a deeper insight int the Chinese peras and the stries behind.
I sincerely hpe that exhibitins f this kind can last lnger and mre distinguished wrks can be staged in the future.
