To be honest, I would be pretty fearful, but I’m accompanied by two rhino experts, Divan Grobler and Hunter Mitchell.‎ We’re at Aquila Private Game Reserve, a couple of hours from Cape Town, to learn from Divan and 12-year-old wildlife activist, Hunter, about the Saving Private Rhino program and the fight to protect the endangered species(物种), whose numbers have decreased from more than a million to less than 30,000 because of coaching(偷猎) and habitat loss. I’ve been dreaming of visiting South Africa forever. And right now, in this moment, I think I’m going mad. Luckily, we have people like Divan and Hunter to fight to save these creatures from poachers killing them to make medicines from their horns.‎ While the wellbeing of the planet is important, so is the livelihood of the people that live in it. Sadly, almost half of South Africa’s population lives below the global poverty(贫穷) line. But there are some kind people trying to change that. The team at Uthando South Africa are among those. The team raise funds for community development and they take us to visit some art and music projects in Khayelitsha. I am so excited by the singing and dancing at Isibane se Afrika that I have to join in. And the kids at the KASI RC-Shack Art School & Theatre blow my mind. Not only are they the best actors I’ve be ever seen, they also let us join their drama lesson.‎ South Africa has stolen my heart, and this journey has made me believe that the time for talk has passed. It is time for action. And I am ready to fight for our future.‎ ‎21. How did the author feel when he saw the rhino at first?‎ A. Sad. B. Shy. C. Relaxed. D. Frightened.‎ ‎22. What does the author think of what Divan and Hunter have done?‎ A. He thinks highly of it. B. He doesn’t agree with it.‎ C. He doesn't ' think it is helpful. D. He believes it will lead to success.‎ ‎23. What is the main purpose of the team at Uthando South Africa?‎ A. To save wildlife. B. To improve the poor ' life.‎ C. To prevent kids from dropping out. D. To provide art - related lessons for children.‎ B ‎★★★☆☆‎ The silver-backed chevrotain(鼷鹿) is a small animal. It is also called the Vietnamese mouse-deer. Experts feared the silver-backed chevrotain had died out. Then they saw one in a forest in Vietnam.‎ The last time experts saw a silver-backed chevrotain was almost 30 years ago. In 1990, a hunter killed one. Now there is hope for the tiny mammals(哺乳动物). Global Wildlife Conservation is a group based in Texas. It keeps a list of the 25 most-wanted lost species. The chevrotain was the first mammal on the list to be found. Silver-backed chevrotains live in the tropical forests of Vietnam. Four of them were collected in 1910, leading to the first description of the animals. There are 10 known kinds of chevrotains. Most of them live in Asia. They weigh less than 10 pounds each. They are the world’s smallest hoofed(有蹄的) mammals. Chevrotains live alone. They eat fruit, grass, and leaves. Chevrotains have been targeted by poachers.‎ Experts set up three cameras to take pictures of the forest. In five months, they got 275 photos of the silver-backed chevrotain. Another 29 cameras were set up for five more months. They took 1,881 more pictures. Learning that the chevrotain is still out there “is the first step in ensuring we don’t lose it again,” said expert An. Nguyen.‎ Experts still have a lot to learn about chevrotains. The new find will push them to learn more. They will also try to protect the animals. Experts plan to put cameras in two more places. They want to learn how many chevrotains are living in the area. High levels of hunting have led to an “empty forest syndrome” in Vietnam. That is when healthy forests have few animals because of humans. A few species are close to dying out because of it.‎ ‎24. Why did experts worry about silver-backed chevrotains?‎ A. They had disappeared for many years. B. They failed to get used to the forest.‎ C. They would be endangered soon. D. They did harm to local people.‎ ‎25. What do we know about silver-backed chevrotains?‎ A. They like to live in groups.‎ B. They can be easily found in Vietnam.‎ C. They are the smallest existing mammals.‎ D. They were recorded in 1910 for the first time.‎ ‎26. What is the point of the new find for experts according to the last paragraph?‎ A. It pushes them to introduce some laws.‎ B. It helps them to fight against coaching.‎ C. It gives them a chance to work with local people.‎ D. It encouraged them to learn more about the chevrotain.‎ C ‎★★★★☆‎ I think a lot of fans believe that parks’ strong love to intellectual property (IP) (知识产权) is something new. But parks have relied on outside media for inspiration ever since Disneyland opened in 1955. Remember, “Disneyland” was a TV show before it was a theme park. Walt himself used his show to introduce fans across the country to many of the original IP that he would feature in the park. And the park's Fantasy land always has provided a collection of Disney Animation IP.‎ When movies, TV shows, and theme parks all share the same franchise (特许权), they help create and strengthen a popular need that allows the studios that produce the franchise to spend many millions of dollars on it than the studio could afford if that work existed in a single medium. Basing a franchise on outside IP gives designers a “head start,” allowing them to tap into relationships and emotional(情感的) states that fans bring to an IP ride or show, and to build on those from there, deepening the experience for visitors.‎ Of course, this only works for people who know a franchise. That’s not much of an obstacle for Harry Potter, Star Wars, or Marvel. But it can be for less popular franchises. I saw a lot of people last month walk out of Motion gate Dubai’s Hotel Transylvania ride with blank looks. If you didn’t know the movie, you had no idea what was happening on that ride.‎ Still, popular IP comes with risk to theme parks. A great IP raise the expectation for a theme park attraction, putting the pressure on designers. Millions of fans would have booked trips to see The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, no matter what Universal did with that franchise. But if Universal hadn’t delivered the immersive(沉浸式的) experience, the blow back from disappointed fans could have sunk the theme park.‎ ‎27. What has Disneyland depended on since 1955?‎ A. Outside media. B. Popular movie's.‎ C. Walt’s suggestions. D. Fans’ requirements.‎ ‎28. What is the advantage of using the same IP in movies, TV shows, and theme parks?‎ A. Giving designers more inspiration.‎ B. Putting more money on the franchise.‎ C. Attracting more attention with lower costs.‎ D. Making a closer connection with film - bakers.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined word “obstacle” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Doubt. B. Difficulty. C. Excitement. D. Satisfaction.‎ ‎30. What problem may using a popular IP cause for theme parks?‎ A. Failing to meet fans’ expectations. ‎ B. Being unable to attract enough visitors.‎ C. The difficulty of building the same settings. ‎ D. The very high costs of building theme parks.‎ 第二节(共5小题)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ A new study suggests that the UK’s future athlete might not reach their full potential(潜力) because of air pollution. It says that more than a quarter of children’s sports grounds in five big UK cities have poor air quality. Scientists point out that the pollution may be affecting the development of young people's lungs. 31‎ The study was organized by the Air Team hoping to clean up the UK’s air. They tested pollution at 94 sports sits in Birmingham, London, Greater Manchester, Nottingham and Sheffield. 32‎ The team found that 25 sites broke the World Health Organization(WHO) suggested limits for nitrogen dioxide(二氧化氮) gas and small particulate matter. The sites include Perry Barr in Birmingham, which will host the 2022 Commonwealth Games. 33 Nitrogen dioxide comes mostly from burning fossil fuels. It can be bad for people's health and can damage the lungs. 34 These ‎ particles can enter the lungs and get absorbed into the bloodstream. They have been linked with several conditions and illnesses.‎ The Air Team has started an activity called Breathe GB. 35 It is calling on the government to introduce clean air bones in big cities as soon as possible earlier studies have suggested that reducing air pollution can quickly make noticeable improvements in young people’s health.‎ A. High quality of air is good for people.‎ B. Besides, the main source of PM2.5 is from cars.‎ C. Another 52 sits came close to the WHO limit.‎ D. Some of those also lead to indoor air pollution.‎ E. Its purpose is to make everyone notice the problem more.‎ F. That makes it more difficult for them to exercise and train.‎ G. Places where famous sports stars like Christine Ohuruogu once trained were included.‎ 第三部分 语言运用（共两节）‎ 第一节(共20小题 ; 每小题 1. 5 分, 满分 30 分 )‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处 的最佳选项。‎ ‎★★★☆☆‎ My 8-year-old daughter did what all kids do.

She then asked, “Has it been helping, Mummy? Does it make you 52?”‎ I closed my eyes because I was crying harder than anyone. I held my 53 daughter hoping I could make the moment last.‎ Over the next ten years or so, Shanna carried out more 54 missions(任务). She has continued to 55 me to be a good mum.‎ Am I smiling?

Today. Though, in our modern and techno logically driven age where machine-learning does most of the work, an effort needs to be made to make sure this important skill set continued to be taught in schools. So what are the skills that critical thinking develops among learners?‎ First, it encouraged a deeper curiosity about the subjects and topics presented to children in class. It underlines important questions about even the simplest of topics, questioning the status quo(现状) and discovering a richer level of understanding. Asking ‘curiosity questions’ like ‘what’s happening?’, ‘Why is it important?’ and ‘What’s hidden?’ develops lifelong learners who go on to have a greater understanding of others’ opinions and explore issued with a critical eye.‎ Second, and somewhat surprisingly, critical thinking encouraged pupils’ creativity. This follows a critical analysis of issued and problem - solving that often calls for creative solutions and thinking ‘outside the box’ With critical thinking comes a freedom from difficulties or challenged that may hinder(阻碍) those who haven’t developed critical thinking skills, allowing for more good results.‎ Perhaps the most obvious benefit of critical thinking is the useful problem-solving skills that follow. Developing critical thinking allows us to make better-informed decisions and use reason to achieve the most effective results. Thinking about problems from all manner of angled and perspective(角度和观点) allows pupils to efficiently work through the challenge, consider the different solutions and ration ally(理性地) choose the path most likely to succeed. All told though, each of these benefits of critical thinking works together to develop independent learners who are empowered to make decisions for themselves — a goal that is central to our job as educators.‎ ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎1-5 CCBAB 6-10 CBCCB 11-15 BACCA 16-20 CACCB ‎ 阅读理解 第一节 A篇 主题语境：人与自我——生活与学习 本文是记叙文。文章描述了作者在南非旅游时的所见所闻。‎ ‎21.【答案】D ‎【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段中的“There’s nothing to fear,” I tried to tell myself.
