B I fell in love with rhinos when I worked in a zoo in the 80s, and spent much of the next 20 years as the keeper of the largest captive group of rare black rhinos. There's a popular misconception that rhinos are aggressive and stupid, but I discovered sensitive, affectionate animals. In the past few decades, their numbers have dropped dramatically. In recent years. I've helped look after rhinos being moved to reserves, so they can form new populations in countries that have few left. Last year, I helped on a project to fly five black rhinos to the Serengeti National Park. Once there, the animals had to be kept captive for a few weeks to adapt to the new environment， in which time they lived in ＂bomas＂-wooden enclosures（围场）with “bedrooms". designed to create a calm space. A couple of weeks before their planned release, the sky was heavy with smoke. Watching the flames rushing through the bush toward the bomas, I froze. Terrified that it would catch fire, my instinct was to release the rhinos， but they hadn’t yet been fitted with transmitter（发信器）.If I let them out into a bushfire and they were injured, we'd have great difficulty tracking them down. So I dashed back to the bomas and called the rhinos to the bedrooms. Sensing the fear in my voices, they moved without hesitation and remained astonishingly calm. It was crucial that the rhinos didn't panic →they can easily hurt each other if they do. Meanwhile, the rangers managed to beat the closest flames away. At last, after half an hour, the wind changed direction and the fire began to recede. That we and the rhinos had escaped uninjured was a miracle. The teamwork of everybody there played a large part, and the rhinos were very much a part of that team. The relationships we'd built with them had proved crucial-had they or we panicked, all our work would have been in vain. Instead, two weeks later, they were released into the wild, ready to found part of a new population in the Serengeti. 24.What kind of animals does the author think rhinos are? A.Unfriendly. B.Cruel. C.Mild. D.Curious. 25. Why did the black rhinos have to live in “bomas" for some time? A. To be trained to act less aggressively. B.To get ready for life in a new habitat. C.To learn crucial survival skills in the wild. D. To form a closer relationship with humans. 26.What was the author's first reaction to the bushfire? A.She had to put out the nearest flames. B.She had to set the rhinos free immediately. C.She had to plant transmitters in the rhinos. D. She had to lead the rhinos to a safer place. 27.What is the last paragraph mainly about? A.Why protecting rhinos is important. B.How the rhinos were released to the wild. C.What enabled the rhinos to remain calm. D.What helped the rhinos and people escape. C Doge，Grumpy Cat，Pepe the Frog...these memes（表情包）are often used in our chats with friends on the internet. But now they have also found their way into the world of fashion. According to a global fashion search engine Lyst，memecore（梗式穿搭）will become one of the biggest fashion hits this year. Following this trend, some brands have pushed memes to their "extremes" to get people excited. For example, UK fashion brand JW Anderson has used goldfish tanks and pixels （像素） as part of its design. Spanish fashion brand Loewe has brought out boots in the shape of bags. This meme-inspired fashion trend is "a rejection of the idea that clothing has to obey rules defining what’s 'in' and 'out'," as the fashion website CR Fashion Book notes. The only rule is to " wear what you want, even if it seems odd to those who aren't in on the joke." This attitude of fashion freedom has struck a chord with many young people. According to Refinery29，a creative global platform for young people， as aesthetics（审美） change rapidly．people often ask what their aesthetic is because they want something to define themselves. Growing up on the Internet, surrounded by nontraditional memes and comment sections, young people want to challenge the usual systems of taste. Meanwhile, in an era filled with stress and competition, people are left craving for jokes and irony. Now the memecore fashion trend can provide a supply to meet this demand. Some people might say that the rise of memecore fashion is "a form of escapism", an idea put forward by CR Fashion Book. But in a stressful life, why not wear some memecore clothes and bring more joy to both yourself and others? 28.What is the idea behind memecore fashion? A.Wearing what is widely accepted. C.Wearing what makes you stand out. B.Following the latest global fashion trends. D.Breaking the rules and wearing what you love. 29. Why is Refinery29 mentioned in Paragraph 4? A.To support that young people like memecore fashion. B.To prove the importance of memes in young people's lives. C. To introduce the effects of memecore fashion on young people. D.To indicate that young people follow the usual systems of taste. 30.Which is closest in meaning to "craving for" in Paragraph 5? A.allowing for B.begging for C.longing for D.fighting for 31.What does the author think of the memecore fashion trend? A. It's a way to spread happiness. B. It improves young people's aesthetics. C. It's funny and ironic but can offend others. D. It's a form of escapism and should be avoided. D Most people hate mosquitoes-but scientists are about to build a "mosquito factory "to release modified（改良的）mosquitoes. The modified mosquitoes carry a bacterium called Wolbachia pipientis （沃尔巴克氏菌），which can be naturally found in most insect species. However, it's rarely discovered in mosquitoes. “We actually grow these mosquitoes that contain the bacterium," Scott O'Neill, an Australian scientist involved in the project, told CBC News. When the modified mosquitoes are released, they slowly spread the bacterium to the population. Several studies have demonstrated the insects' success. For example, a controlled experiment in Indonesia showed that the modified insect helped reduce the cases of the disease dengue（登革热） by 77 percent, according to a study paper published in 2021. The World Mosquito Program has announced that it will release modified mosquitoes in many of Brazil's urban areas over the next 10 years. The aim is to protect up to 70 million people from diseases such as dengue, an infectious disease mainly spread by mosquitoes. Brazil has one of the highest rates of dengue infection in the world, according to the Nature website. "More than 1,000 people died of dengue in 2022 because of the spread of mosquitoes. It’s going everywhere," Luciano Moreira, a scientist in Rio de Janciro, Brazil, told CBC News. Another way to prevent mosquitoes from spreading diseases is by producing genetically modified mosquitoes(GM). In 2022, the US Environmental Protection Agency cleared the release of 2.4 billion GM mosquitoes in California and Florida. According to the agency, GM mosquitoes carry two types of genes: a self-limiting gene that prevents female offspring（后代）from surviving， to adulthood； and a marker gene that allows researchers to identify GM ones in the wild. After being released, GM mosquitoes lay eggs, so the genes are passed on to offspring. In this way, the number of female mosquitoes is reduced, therefore reducing the chance of spreading discase. 32. What is the final purpose of building the "mosquito factory” A. To prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. B. To produce massive mosquitoes for scientific research. C. To study the behavior of mosquitoes in different environments. D. To replace the natural mosquito population with a modified one. 33.What is the function of Paragraph 5 in the text? A.It states challenges facing the program. B.It provides the background to the program. C. It shows the expected effect of the program. D. It indicates an opinion on the announcement. 34.How does the self-limiting gene in genetically modified mosquitoes work? A.By limiting their ability to lay eggs. B.By making them immune to disease. C.By reducing their offspring's lifespans. D.By allowing them to be easily identified. 35.What can be the best title for the text? A. Reclassing GM Mosquitoes C. Experimenting on Modified Insects B. Reducing Dengue in Brazil D. Modifying Infectious Mosquitoes 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 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。 The Rise of “China-chic” Over past years, guochao, or "China-chic" has been gaining popularity among Chinese consumers. Guochao conveys the cultural heritage and values of China. 36 “China-chic" is rising, but what is it? The idea of guochao was first borrowed from some international brands, and began to win over Chinese consumers in 2015. 37 In 2018,Chinese sportswear band Li-Ning presented its Wu Dao (the principles of Taoism) collection at the New York Fashion Week. It featured bright red color and Chinese characters. More brands have since followed，heralding（预示）the early period of guochao. 38 .This was a period when applications of big data, cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and 5G technology hit the market one after another. Domestic tech companies such as Huawei, Xiaomi, and DJI made headlines. In its third stage, guochao became more common in everyday life. Over the past decade, guochao has expanded from consumer goods to experiential products. As consumers are showing greater interest in cultural identity and cre
