Here’s a list of some of Europe’s best-known museums.‎ Louvre Museum in Paris As the most visited museum in the world, it offers virtual tours online. It also has a number of “Visitors Trails” in different themes, designed to give an overview of the scope and wealth of the museum's collections. Each trail is based on a selection of works that characterize a period, an artistic movement or a theme, including the artworks from JAY-Z and Beyoncé's music video.‎ Schirn Museum in Frankfurt It has digitally opened its current exhibition, now closed due to the virus, called “Fantastic Women” (scheduled from February 13 to May 24), highlighting the works of 34 women artists and their contributions to Surrealism(超现实主义), including Frida Kahlo, Leonora Carrington, Leonor Fini, Dorothea Tanning and Dora Maar.‎ Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam Are you looking for ways to entertain your children with an educational twist? Then the Van Gogh will bring the great artist to you and also invite you to a virtual visit inside the Museum. The museum explores the painter's life, his relationship with his brother Théo, his passion for Japan and also his mental illness. Everything is in high definition.‎ Of course, a range of recent opera and ballet productions are also available, with the hope to give pleasure to as many people as possible.

A website.‎ C. A magazine. D. A textbook.‎ B Ruby Kate Chitsey was heartbroken when she learned that a woman in the Arkansas nursing home where her mother worked had to give up her dog because she couldn't afford to feed it. The woman, Pearl, received only $40 a month from local health care program and that had to cover expenses like haircuts, clothes and pet food. Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate couldn't believe there are almost 1 million other people like Pearl, trying to get by on so little.‎ Shortly afterwards, Ruby Kate founded the project of Three Wishes for Ruby's Residents to support seniors living in nursing homes across the U.S. She started asking people what items they wished they had and wrote their answers in a notebook, trying to realize three of their wishes. She thought maybe they would want money or cars, but was surprised their requests were so simple, which were typically everyday items like fresh fruit, better toothpaste or shoes that fit.‎ The first day, she and her mom bought nearly everything on the list. But then Ruby Kate began organizing donations so she could help realize more wishes. Later, she created an online campaign to help even more people. The campaign raised more than $250,000 from 6,000 people worldwide.‎ Thoughtful Ruby Kate got this year's Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes, an award that celebrates young people from across North America who've had a positive influence on people, their communities and the environment. Each year, the Barron Prize honors 25 young leaders from ages 8 to 18. Fifteen top winners each receive $10,000 to support their service work or higher education.‎ ‎“I feel valued for doing what matters to me — being kind — and am so glad the world took my voice seriously,” Ruby Kate says. “Mostly, I do appreciate that I've changed the world for the elderly ‎ I know.”‎ ‎4. How did Ruby Kate probably feel when she learned about the situation of people like Pearl?‎ A. Upset. B. Surprised. C. Anxious. D. Excited.‎ ‎5. What can we know about the project founded by Ruby Kate?‎ A. It has become very popular, especially online.‎ B. It gives a hand to all the elderly living in America.‎ C. It satisfies most of the wishes from the old people.‎ D. It depends on donations to continue its operation.‎ ‎6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A. Ruby Kate only raised money across the U.S. ‎ B. People appreciated Ruby Kate helping them out. ‎ C. Ruby Kate has had a positive influence on Americans.‎ D. Every winner of Gloria Barron Prize will receive $10,000.‎ ‎7. What can be a suitable title for the passage?‎ A. Ruby and Her Neighbors B. Ruby and Her Award C. Ruby and Her Project D. Ruby and Her Mother C If you live in a town or city on the edge of a desert or coastline where sand dunes form, you might understand the threat they can have. It’s, sometimes, a piece of cake for them to cover roads, buildings, farms and other man-made developments with their unpredictable movements. Thus, figuring out how they move is important for preventing some natural disasters.‎ Now scientists have discovered that dunes have been secretly moving in ways we never knew before. There are different explanations on dune interaction, however, Karol Bacik, first author on the new dune study, and his colleagues have found a new one for dune movement. The researchers employed high-speed cameras to observe how dunes separated by distance can act as if they're connected.‎ It turns out, currents flowing over sand dunes can carry “information” to other dunes downstream in the form of swirls(旋涡). For instance, as wind or water flows over the top of a dune, it slightly moves. This can generate “swirls” on the back of a downstream dune and push it in a direction opposite the movement of the front dune.‎ It’s the first time that researchers were able to provide causal explanations for some of these strange, previously unpredictable movements. The team also hopes to get out of the laboratory and into the real world, to see if their models can be applied to dune movements in complex natural systems. They plan to use satellite images over large deserts to track groups of dunes over long periods.‎ Perhaps they can start to alter the dune marching orders in the near future. Imagine being able to tell a dune field exactly how you want it to move. That's the idea that this research might one day make possible.‎ ‎8. We can learn that the purpose of the study is to _________.‎ A. stop the sand dunes from moving around ‎ B. figure out the track of sand dune movements C. prove the interaction of dunes with each other D. examine a model of sand dunes in the real world ‎ ‎9. What does the underlined word “one” in Para. 2 refer to?‎ A. A study. B. An interaction. C. An explanation. D. A dune.‎ ‎10. Which of the following can we know from the passage?‎ A. A sand dune communicates with another only by currents. ‎ B. Swirls on the back of a dune are the power to move itself.‎ C. Some strange dune movements have got causally explained before.‎ D. Researchers think it unnecessary to study further on the dune models. ‎ ‎11. What’s the author’s attitude towards the future research?‎ A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Unconcerned. D. Not mentioned.‎ D General Motors (GM) shared the first details of its third-generation electric vehicle (EV) and Ultium battery system just about a month ago, but it won’t be the only automaker using this new EV hardware. Honda(本田) is now planning to build two new electric models based on the GM tech.‎ Sharing of EV technology across automakers is becoming an increasingly common practice. Last summer, Ford reached an agreement to build at least one European battery electric vehicle (BEV) based on Volkswagen’s platform and more recently, Hyundai(现代) announced plans to use the electric platform from California-based startup Canoo.‎ This hardware sharing makes sense for automakers since the technology is expensive to develop but once it’s built into a vehicle, there won’t be much to distinguish(区分) one from another. Sharing allows the development cost to be spread over more vehicles, which is crucially important for a company to seize market share in the fierce competition.‎ While Honda has an excellent reputation for designing traditional engines, having even supplied some to GM in the past, it has struggled with BEVs. The Japanese automaker has focused more on fuel cell(电池) technology whose adoption is very limited at present. The only BEV that Honda currently offers in the U.S. market is the Clarity EV which offers just 89 miles of range on a charge. While Honda’s own BEV efforts don’t seem to have gained any progress, they have been working with GM on battery module design since 2018 and likely had a hand in the development of Ultium battery system.‎ The so-called “top-hats” which make up the body and inside of the vehicle will be designed and developed by Honda, however, the propulsion system and battery will come from GM. The first of the new Honda BEVs are scheduled to go on sale in 2024 and be produced at GM factories.‎ ‎12. Which automaker will probably use the new EV hardware besides GM?‎ A. Ford. B. Honda. C. Volkswagen. D. Hyundai.‎ ‎13. What is becoming more and more common among automakers?‎ A. Using electric platform. B. Building electric models. ‎ C. Sharing EV technology. D. Seizing car market share.‎ ‎14. Why is hardware sharing necessary to automakers?‎ A. Because making vehicles is difficult.‎ B. Because designing engines is important.‎ C. Because distinguishing vehicles is necessary.‎ D. Because developing technology is very expensive.‎ ‎15. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Honda has defeated GM in developing BEVs. ‎ B. Honda will be better than GM in developing BEVs.‎ C. Honda and GM will be partners in developing BEVs. ‎ D. Honda will purchase GM factories to produce BEVs.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。‎ Studies have shown that walking among trees makes us relaxed. 16 There's plenty of research showing the link between being in nature and being happy, but most of the research has focused on adults.‎ ‎ 17 Explaining the motivation behind the study, researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming, more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems, and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions. However, few studies focus on this aspect. ‎ For the study, researchers worked with 296 children between the ages of 9 and 12. To measure how connected they were to nature, the kids were asked how much they enjoy activities like seeing wildflowers and wild animals, hearing sounds of nature and touching animals and plants. 18 They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature, the more likely they were to be happy.‎ So exposure to nature is related to active behaviors and happiness of children. What does that mean to adults? As we all know, children usually tend to follow adults’, especially their parents’ behaviors. That’s to say, when adults are outside and appreciate nature, kids learn by example. 19 ‎ Researchers say that children need role models who can gently guide them to nature with excitement and an attitude of a lifelong learner. 20 What's more important is that they spend time together with children by exploring a fun and safe environment.‎ A. It’s so good going for a walk around trees. ‎ B. Even just smelling the trees helps reduce anxiety. ‎ C. And if parents enjoy being close to nature, so will their children.‎ D. Parents don't have to be experts in environmental science or nature studies.‎ E. They found that the kids connected to nature were more likely to behave actively. ‎ F. In a new study researchers wanted to see if kids get the same benefits from being outdoors.‎ G. Researchers will study more about the connection between children’s happiness and nature. ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分55分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ A pair of engineers are encouraging kids to 21 whatever they want and trying to turn children’s drawings from imagination into 22 .‎ This can be seen at Kids Invent Stuff, a YouTube channel 23 by Ruth Amos and Shawn Brown.
