    Around the world, there are about 7,000 National Parks. Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.

    The National Parks in England are called "England's Breathing Spaces" because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.

    Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems, too.

    First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.

    _______All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.

(1)、Visitors to the National Parks in England can _______.
A、give food to wild animals B、drive cars on the grasslands C、enjoy fresh air and peaceful time D、have fun farming with local people
(2)、The third paragraph mainly tells us _______.
A、the problems of the National Parks B、the pollution caused by visitors C、the development of the National Parks D、the benefits brought by visitors
(3)、Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in

Paragraph 4?

A、What can people get? B、How can people help? C、What are the National Parks like? D、How are the National Parks set up?
(4)、The passage is probably taken from the _______ part of a magazine.

 阅读下面语言材料,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Sea turtles(海龟) live in the sea most of the time. The beaches in Florida are home to sea turtles. Female sea turtles come here from the ocean to lay eggs. Then they return to the ocean. However, the number of some of these turtle species(种类) is falling. They are in danger, so people in Florida work together as a community to protect them.

Some volunteers take direct action to help the turtles. They look closely at the sand to find out where the sea turtles lay their eyes. Then they help bury(埋藏) the eggs in order to save them from being destroyed. They are helpful in people who are studying sea turtles.

Florida's government has passed laws to save the turtles. One of these laws is "Florida's Marine Turtle Protection Act". This law prevents anyone from destroying sea turtles' nests or eggs. It helps protect the turtles from dying out.

People also work together to save the turtles through organizations(组织) like the Sea Turtle Conservancy. For example, the bright light from buildings near the beach can influence sea turtles. It may make the baby turtles get lost, leading to many of them do not make it to the ocean and even die. The Sea Turtle Conservancy works with house owners to make the lighting in their buildings sea turtle friendly. They also advise people to turn off their lights at night if they live close to the beach.

In a word, everyone can do his or her part to protect sea turtles and their living places. People in Florida can work as volunteers to clean up the beaches and pick up their own litter. Everyone in the community has the ability to make a difference!

 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

I run a lot of writing workshops in secondary schools and what I often see is this: teenagers in class just look at the blank page and freeze. Even when I tell them they can't get it wrong in creative writing, they still stop and feel painful, looking to me for clear and definite instructions. This behavior results from their training to mimic(模仿). {#blank#}1{#/blank#} In time, they are afraid of getting things wrong and risking failure. Creativity is no longer supported and is even viewed as a soft skill, or even a weakness.

However, creativity is highly valued by employers. According to The Conversation, creativity has been the number-one skill needed by 20 million job ads on Linked for two years in a row. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Because of limited educational resources and assessment(评价) pressures, teenagers' thinking becomes increasingly narrow, leaving them afraid to explore other possibilities.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} It's just an ability to make new connections and follow where they go. Actually, creativity requires qualities available to us all: courage, observation, curiosity, flexibility and perseverance.

So how do we help teenagers be hopeful and brave? Firstly, we need to avoid the idea that their whole futures depend on this very task or that decision. Life is long enough to try many things, and to change directions. There is no right way to live a life. Secondly, let's encourage raising questions. Children are naturally curious, but this curiosity often fades as they grow older, although it still exists within them. Just because they lack answers doesn't mean they shouldn't ask questions; rather, they should ask even more. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

Young people need reminding that their stories haven't been written. They need opportunities to try new things. They need permission to keep asking "what else is possible?" because anything is.

A. But in schools, it is different.

B. Being creative isn't a magical skill.

C. It allows us to understand their feelings better.

D. They know it is a safe way to get good grades.

E. The main problem is how to keep those creative juices flowing.

F. The world is held together with unanswered questions and endless possibilities.

 请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子选择五个句子还原到原文里,使原文的意思完整、连贯。

A. City Walk makes traveling and shopping more popular.

B. You can find happiness in the great things along the way.

C. It shows that some young Chinese prefer real local experiences. 

D. They take a walk through cities, shopping around and taking photos.

E. In our country, travelers in the last Golden Week holiday was 481 million.

F. Since then, many local tourist groups have started offering City Walk products.

The latest way of exploring urban(城市的)China is now the City Walk. While some people travel home and abroad, others like a more relaxing time without going out of town. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}.

In the traditional way of traveling, young people often visit well-known places. However, the goal of City Walk is to enjoy local culture and lifestyle, instead of going to "must-see" spots(景点). {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Therefore, their explorations often include not only parks, but even local food markets.

Jack Zhang, a social media expert in Shanghai, decided to stay in the city after a disappointing Labor Day travel experience. This time, he walked around Yuyuan Road, watched the elderly playing cards, and relaxed in a coffee shop. "The City Walk allows one to experience the slow life. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. And you can think about your personal life like you hardly do when you are busy," he said.

This way of traveling became popular in July after getting attention on social media. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Tourist groups in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Chengdu provided official City Walk maps and guides with tips. According to Wang Yi, a college professor, " {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. It may help improve the real economy(实体经济)in the future."

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

If you've ever used pi in math class, you probably used the number 3.14. In fact, the number for pi is much longer. Pi is called an irrational number (无理数) because the digits (数位) after the decimal point (小数点) never end or repeat.

>In 2015, a young man from India named Rajveer Meena set a world record by memorizing 70,000 digits of pi. But pi is much longer than that. 

On Pi Day ( March 14th) this year, a company called Solidigm said it calculated (计算) pi to105 trillion (万亿) digits. And the 105 trillionth digit is 6. It broke the record for how many digits of pi we know. 

Pi is really useful for circles in math. It helps us connect the circumference with the diameter of a circle. 

Even NASA scientists use pi for their work of studying space. But they only need about 15 digits of pi for their calculations. 

Calculating pi also has another important use. It's how scientists test new computer programs and data storage systems (数据存储系统). 

Solidigm's calculation of pi took around 75 days to finish. The company's owner Brian 

Beeler said that the achievement needed a lot of work. They had to plan the calculation very carefully. 

This isn't the first time that Solidigm has calculated pi. In 2022, Google Cloud calculated 100 trillion digits of pi. Solidigm matched that in 2023. 

In the future, we'll keep finding more and more digits of pi. We'll never be able to calculate all the digits of pi because it goes on forever. But it still helps us see how great computers can be.
