      Look at the center circles of Diagram (图) A and Diagram B.  Which of the centre circles looks larger? 
Take a first look and you probably think that the centre circle in Diagram A is smaller than that in Diagram B. In fact , they are exactly the same size.
    Then look at the picture on the right. What do you see? A vase ? Or two faces? Does the picture change quickly from one to the other again and again? Maybe or maybe not, but you can never see them at the same time. 
    "What's happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?" You may wonder at what you see. Don't worry. Here is how it goes:
When we look at things, our eyes send messages to our brains and then our brains interpret (解读) the information. However, sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way. It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us. This often happens and we call it "Visual illusion" (视觉错误). 
    Movie makers often make use of illusions. They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual. This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are. The movies Jurassic Park and Honey I shrunk the kids just make use of illusions.

    Animals, including insects, do not have a language like ours. They do not talk to each other in words and sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have ways of communicating with each other.

    Can you see the rabbit's tail which is moving up and down? When rabbits see this white tail moving up and down, they run too. They know that there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has done this by using its body language.

    Many other animals use this kind of language. When a cobra is angry, it raises its hood and makes itself look fierce. This warns other animals. When a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home. It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.

    Some animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like "Oh" or "Ah!" when we are frightened or pleased or when we drop something on our toes.

    But we have something that no animals have—a large number of words that have the meanings of things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other all kinds of different information in words and sentences, which no other animals can do. No other animals have so wonderful a language as we have.

①Many people describe New York City as the centre of culture in the United States. That's because no matter what you're interested in, you'll find it in New York City. Whether it's theatre, music, ballet, or museums, the city has some of the very best to offer.

②The street called Broadway in New York City became the centre of American theatre in the mid-19th century. The number, size, and fame(名声) of the Broadway theatres grew as New York City grew. In 1910 the brightly lighted street became known as "the Great White Way". Beyond these theatres the city offers free performances of the plays of William Shakespeare in Central Park. Operas and concerts are also held in the park.

③New York City has a number of world-class space for performances of all kinds. The city's concert halls include those at the Lincoln Centre for the Performing Arts as well as Carnegie Hall and Radio City Music Hall. The groups that perform in these halls include the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Opera, and the New York Philharmonic. The New York City Ballet also performs at the Lincoln Centre, in the New York State Theatre.

④Museums are another important part of New York City's cultural life. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Guggenheim Museum are among the city's art museums. You can also spend many hours in the American Museum of Natural History and its Rose Centre for Earth and Space Science.

⑤With all of these resources(资源) there is always plenty to do in New York City.

 阅读下面材料,然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 

On social media platforms such as Xiaohongshu, we're seeing more posts with the tag lines "I will listen" and "listen to me." A puzzled person may have trouble deciding on where to go on a vacation, which restaurant offers the best seafood or whether Huawei's Mate 60 is a better buy than the iPhone 15. Write a post titled "I will listen" and it's likely that a warm-hearted person will quickly reply with a suggestion.

Now, the problem is, should you follow the advice of a complete stranger? Is his or her advice true or is it just a personal opinion? Opinions, after all, are not facts-they are just personal judgments. Still, it's important to take different voices into consideration.

Whenever I buy something online, I always read the comments ( 评 论 ) posted by the last customers. If there are too many negative comments, I probably won't consider buying it. On the other hand, if all of the comments are unusually positive, my doubtful brain takes over and I think the seller may be using comments to increase the sale of the product.

Apart from online business posts, other "listen-to-me" posts cause a more complex problem. In these posts, people are often giving advice on traps ( 陷 阱 ) and problems that could trouble other people. Personal problems such as relationships, job choices and even mental health are among the most common topics. Their suggestions may be truthful, but they don't necessarily fit in with the special situation of others.

For these big "topics", it's better to talk to friends, families, teachers and professional experts. Those people who are close to you know and care about you and will stay by your side, unlike an online poster you may never hear from again.

The Internet is like a great "shop" for getting and exchanging information. But, as with any shop, let the buyer be more careful.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。

 There are several Chinese sayings that are similar to" how time flies". Ancient Chinese compared time to many things.

 One of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( popular) sayings is probably"光阴似箭, 日月如梭( Time flies by like an arrow; Days and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( month) flash by as fast as a weaver's shuttle.)" It is easy {#blank#}3{#/blank#}( understand) the" arrow" part. All of us know {#blank#}4{#/blank#} fast arrows are. What about a weaver's shuttle?

In ancient times, many Chinese people made a living by growing crops (庄稼) and weaving cloth(织布). Nearly every family {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( have) a loom(织布机). A shuttle is a tool on the loom that moves {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( quick) when someone is weaving. Since it was so often seen, ancient Chinese used it in this saying.

 Another popular Chinese saying {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the passing of time is"白驹过隙". It means that time flies by like a white horse running past a crack (缝隙) in a wall. The saying comes from {#blank#}8{#/blank#} book called Zhuangzi. In this book, it is said that Confucius came to Laozi to ask about the ultimate(终极的) truth of the universe. Laozi told Confucius that a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( person) life was as quick as"a white horse running past a crack". One's body would die, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} his or her spirit could live on forever.

 阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入小题, 并回答第50题(20词以内)。

Giving gifts to other people is common in our life, but sometimes it is difficult to give right gifts. How do we choose the right one? Let me tell you. 

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Will you always think a lot about how much you spend on a gift? But spending more does not always mean a good gift. In fact, most people don't care about the price of the gift. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Sometimes we often shop for something special as gifts, but this may lead us to miss the things that people really want and need. It may make us buy them an improper(不合适的) gift. Don't forget about some normal things because they can also be good gifts. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

To shop better, a teacher at the University of British Columbia in Canada suggests starting with something you are both interested in. A study has also shown that gifts you both like can bring a close relationship, such as concert tickets or a cooking class. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

Asking people what they want is a useful way to choose a right gift. A study shows that people are happier for gifts they ask for than ones they don't need. It seems that the easiest way to make a person happy with a gift is asking them what they want. 

A. Don't forget normal things. 

B. Ask them what they want. 

C. Buy gifts based on shared interests. 

D. Don't care too much about the price. 

E. Remember to discuss with other people. 

What gift would you like to give your friend on his or her birthday? Why? (20词以内) {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
