The Mogao Caves，China Also known as the Mogao Grottoes，the caves are located along the cliffside（峭壁） above the Daquan River in Gansu province.First built in 366 and comprising 492 caves，the Mogao Caves are known as the biggest collection of Buddhist art in the world.As a landmark or the historic Sick Road，the Mogao Caves are a perfect display of Chinese art history over a period of a thousand years. Redwood National Park，US Lying in the mountainous region north of San Francisco in California，US.，the Redwood National Park is significant for its collection of redwood trees the tallest and oldest trees in the worldas well as its variety of sea and land wildlife.Once abundant throughout the temperate（气候温和） regions of the world，the Redwood trees of California are among the only living examples left of this old plant species，a bíological group which has existed for 160 million years. Machu Picchu，Peru Situated in the Andes Mountains，this fascinating ancient city is remarkable both for its beautiful setting as well as its use of complex city planning.Standing at 2，430 meters above sea level，the city of Machu Picchu is covered with both mist and mystery.Researchers have yet to uncover the city's role in the Incan（印加族的） empire's use of astronomy and plant domestication（驯化）.21. What can you learn from the Mogao caves？ A. They have the largest art collection.B. They were built on steep cliff.C. They were built five centuries ago.D. They perfectly exhibited art history.22. Why is Redwood National Park important？ A. Because it has a number of redwood trees.B. Because it lies in the mountainous region.C. Because it has a temperate and mild climate.D. Because it has various tallest and oldest trees.23. What do we know about Machu Picchn？ A. Its high altitude makes the place well-known.B. Its complex city planning enjoys the best fame.C. The Incan culture is still a mystery for researchers.D. The mist surrounding the city added to its beauty.BYou know those lovely little ears of corn that show up in some of your favorite Chinese take-out dishes？Ever wondered how they grow so small？Are there tiny little farmers out somewhere taking care of tiny cornfields？Are they specially grown to be tiny or are they just little baby regular corn？Well the answer is that they truly are just baby ears of regular corn.The corn is harvested in an early stage from nearly any variety of regular-sized corn plant. There's evidence showing that humans' love for miniature（微型的）things can date back 3000 years.By the 1400s，miniature things had become more popular，with painters like Jean Fouquet creating images only7.5 centimeters wide.Somewhere along the way，our fascination with things in miniature from goats and owls to tiny houses came to include vegetables，too. Baby carrots，little ears of corn，and micro greens are common today from fresh produce and frozen meals to take-out and fancy restaurant foods.But where do those tiny vegetables come from？It tums out，a vegetable packaged，sold or served as a baby may actually be a young vegetable-or it may not.It's also entirely possible that a baby vegetable is a dwarf（侏儒）or hybrid version of a full-sized vegetable. Baby bok choy for example，is a young vegetable that is harvested early for its tender and mild qualities.However there also are dwarf varieties of baby bok choy that have a similar look and taste to their early-harvested cousins. There are about 50 different types of vegetables that are grown or imported as miniatures in the United States.And while the United States produces the most com in the world，it imports almost all of its baby com from other countries.Thailand produces the most baby corn，followed by Sir Lanka.24. What can be known about the little ears of corn in some Chinese take out dishes？ A. They are grown by tiny little farmers.B. They are just little baby regular corn.C. They are specially grown to be tiny.D. They grow in tiny cornfields.25. What does the anther mainly want to tell us in paragraph 2？ A. The advantages of miniature things.B.

What is the text mainly about？ A. What benefits baby vegetables bring.B. How many kinds of vegetables are developed.C. Where baby vegetables come from.D. How popular baby vegetables are.CWhen 16-year-old Grayden Brunet joined the Sackets Harbor，New York，volunteer fire department in 2017，he was the youngest on the team by 20 years.He was so determined to be following in his dad's footsteps that he persuaded two classmates，Niklas and Dalton，to sign up too.

The completed project looks interesting with a range of materials.On the lower level，the old walls of the barn contrast with the light wood structure within.Above，cold-rolled steel structure protects the second level from the strong winds.This part of the new addition is finished with an enabled roof，adding more interest to the interior（内部）。 Within the existing barn the architects fit a kitchen and dining area.Also on the first level is a double-height artist's studio after which the project is named.The rest of the original structure o the bam now acts as a garden wall in the courtyard. The architects didn't want to create big changes even to the areas of the barn that were safe enough for further construction.Small openings were made to prevent the influence on the structure.Still，shots of the interior show a beautiful light space，partially lit with openings coming from the second level in the double height studio. "We added two big openings because we needed to let more light into the kitchen and an entrance to the studio to get in large at works." say the architects. The interior of the building is made up of a much lighter color palette with white wood board on the walls and floor and other cool colors.Much of the furniture and larger design were inspired by local design of the area in Iceland.32. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the barn？ A. The materials used for the barn.B. The equipment in the barn.C. The changes made to the interior of the barn.D. The atmosphere in the barn.33.

Importantly，the effect of liking others due to their intelligence was strongest during the first test and became weaker over time.Thus，over time，the importance of intelligence in building social relationships decreases. 39_ The researchers suggest that over time，knowing about the shared interests of others may be a more important factor in liking than knowing they're smart. In contrast，the effect of smart students only liking others that were equally intelligent remained significant over the course of the year，although it became a bit weaker.The researchers warn that this may lead to intelligent students being seen as isolated（孤立的） by others.This may become problematic if the smart students are viewed as too proud. 40_ A.Instead，other factors become more important. B.Smart people in the study tended to like nobody. C.Intelligent students were liked better by their classmates. D.The relationship between intelligence and being liked is complex. E.A recent study looked into the link between intelligence and being liked， F.But this association may also be a function of the intelligence of both people. G.Thus，smart people may wish to be careful to take care of their social relationships.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15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。
