26、Researchers say they have translated the meaning of gestures (手势) that wild chimpanzees (黑猩猩) use to communicate. They say wild chimps communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of chimps in Uganda, and examining more than 5,000 incidents of these meaningful exchanges.

Dr. Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional communication to be recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they purposely sent a message to another group member.

“That’s what’s so amazing about chimp gestures,” she said. “They’re the only thing that looks like human language in that respect.”

Although previous research has shown that apes and monkeys can understand complex information from another animal’s call, the animals do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr. Hobaiter said.

Chimps will check to see if they have the attention of the animal with which they wish to communicate. In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, signaling “Climb on me.” The youngster immediately jumps on to its mothers back and they travel off together. “The big message from this study is that there is another species (物种) out there that is meaningful in its communication, so that’s not unique to humans,” said Dr Hobaiter.

Dr. Susanne Shultz, an evolutionary biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was helpful in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”.

“The vagueness (模糊) of the gesture meanings suggests either that the chimps have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information included in their gestures and actions,” she said. “Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animal convey with non-verbal communication. So, it seems the gulf remains.”

【1】What do chimps and humans have in common according to Dr. Hobaiter?

A．Memorizing specific words.

B．Communicating messages on purpose.

C．Using voices to communicate.

D．Understanding complex information.

【2】What did Dr. Shultz think of the study?

A．It was well designed but poorly conducted.

B．It was a failure but the methods were admirable.

C．It was inspiring but the evidence was unreliable.

D．It was a good try but the findings were limited.

【3】What does the underlined word “gulf” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Balance.

B．Difference.

C．Conflict.

D．Connection.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．Chimpanzee behaviour study achieved a breakthrough

B．Chimpanzees developed specific communication skills

C．Chimpanzees the smartest species in the animal kingdom

D．Chimpanzee language communication gestures translated

27、It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let's find out more about going to a new school.

Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Please pay close attention.

You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but, it's a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't. Make the first move and you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!

Seeing old friends can make the first day a good one. You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T­shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers (运动鞋). It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.

【1】The last paragraph mainly tells us about ________.

A．what to know about a new school

B．how to prepare for a new school

C．what to do on your first day of school

D．how to spend your first day of school

【2】According to the passage, you usually do everything on the first day of school except ________.

A．introducing yourself

B．learning about the school rules

C．making new friends

D．going over your new lessons

【3】If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, from the passage we know that you will feel ________.

A．nervous   B．unlucky

C．happy   D．upset

【4】Where can you read the passage?

A．In a newspaper.  B．In a scientific report.

C．In a notice. D．In a freshman handbook.

28、Record fires sweeping across the Amazon this month have been catching global headlines as scientists and environmental groups are worried that they will worsen climate change and threaten biodiversity(生物多样性).

As the largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon is   often called “the lungs of   the world”. It is also home to about 3 million species of plants and animals, and 1 million local people. The vast lands of rainforest play an important role in the world’s ecosystem because they take in heat instead of it being reflected back into the atmosphere. They also store carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)and produce oxygen, making sure that less carbon is given off, mitigating the effects of climate change.

“Any forest destroyed is a threat to biodiversity and the people who use that biodiversity,” Thomas Lovejoy, an ecologist at George Mason University told National Geographic. “The shocking threat is that a lot of carbon goes into the atmosphere,” he stressed. “Facing the global climate change, we cannot afford more damage to a major source of oxygen and biodiversity. The Amazon must be protected,” U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said.

Data from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) show that the number of forest fires in Brazil quickly increased by 82 percent from January to August this year from a year ago. A total of 71,497 forest fires were recorded in the country in the first eight months of 2019, up from 39,194 in the same period in 2018, INPE said. “It’s reported that the forest areas in the Brazilian Amazon have decreased something between 20 and 30 percent compared to the last 12 months,” Carlos Nobre, a researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, told German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.

Brazil owns about 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest, whose drop could have severe results for global climate and rainfall. The size of the area ruined by fires has yet to be determined, but the emergency has transcended(超出）Brazil’s borders, reaching Peruvian, Paraguayan and Bolivian areas.

【1】What is the second paragraph mainly talking about?

A．The effects of climate change.

B．The role of the Amazon rainforest.

C．The results of the Amazon rainforest fires.

D．The causes of the decreasing biodiversity.

【2】Which of the following best explains “mitigating” underlined in Paragraph2?

A．Easing.

B．Causing.

C．Worsening.

D．Benefiting

【3】What can we learn from Thomas’s and Antonio’s words?

A．The biodiversity makes the rainforests unique.

B．The rainforest fires result in serious consequences.

C．The global climate crisis brings more rainforest fires.

D．The dry weather leads to the rainforest fires.

【4】Which section of a magazine is this text probably taken from?

A．Sports and music.

B．Science and technology.

C．Nature and geography.

D．Business and culture.

29、   As a teenager in the 1990s, Melissa Blake was interested in fashion. Unfortunately, fashion wasn't much interested in her.

Blake, who has bone and muscle disease and is under four feet (1.21 metre) tall, couldn't find jeans or dresses in her size. At age 39, she became a disability-rights fighter and a writer whose work appeared in the New York Times, but she gained a national following in 2019 after clapping back those who made ugly comments about her online.

“People said that I should be banned from posting photos of myself because I'm too ugly. So I'd just like to remember the occasion with these three selfies(自拍)…" she tweeted. Over the next year, Blake posted a new selfie every day.

Her fans went wild, calling Blake a goddess and a powerful woman.

Among her fans is Mindy Scheier, the founder and CEO of Runway of Dreams (梦想T台)， which showcases fashion for the disabled. The show is part of the New York Fashion Week. Last fall, Scheier asked Blake to be one of the event's models.

Since the Runway of Dreams show was virtual, Blake's sister filmed her riding her scooter (滑板车)on a quiet street dressed in a T-shirt and an oversize vest.

“It was a little scary," Blake says of modeling. But she's glad she took the challenge. Often, when we think of access for people with disabilities, we think of buildings and employment, she says. But it’s also important to have access to what's fun and enjoyable.

“Fashion isn't going to solve all the world's problems, says Blake. " When disabled people are included, it sends a message that we deserve a seat at the table in all aspects of life.”

【1】What does the underlined words "clapping back" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．fighting back

B．calling back

C．taking back

D．keeping back

【2】Which of the following can best describe Blake?

A．Hardworking and patient.

B．Responsible and inspiring.

C．Easygoing and open-minded.

D．Determined and romantic.

【3】What does Blake's story try to express?

A．Everyone should love fashion.

B．Being a model is necessary for the disabled.

C．We should reserve a seat for the disabled in the buildings.

D．Though broken in body, the disabled can be firm in spirit.

On Friendship Day, her class had an event, in which everyone had to give gifts to their best friends. Lily was really looking forward to the Friendship Day because she wanted gifts from her friends. However, she was the only one who hadn’t received any gifts. She felt sad and cried a lot.

Everyone came and tried to comfort (安慰)   her but each one only stayed for a short time. This was what Lily had done so many times to others.

When she got home, her mother saw her sad face and asked her why she was sad. “Where can I find true friends?” Lily asked. Her mother was surprised. Then she asked Lily what had happened in school. Her mother comforted her and said, “You cannot buy friends with a smile or a few good words. If you really want true friends, you will have to give them real time and love. For a true friend you must always get along with them, in good times and bad.”

Lily replied (回答), “But I want to be friends with everyone!”
