11．（7.5分）Our Teen Summer Spanish Program is two weeks of fun，educational excitement that helps students learn Spanish fast.Our Spanish Summer program allows our students to learn from highly trained，certified teachers and be absorbed in the language and the culture of Costa Rica.Features include：※Intensive（强化的）daily Spanish classes※Extracurricular classes in dance，cooking，music，and handiwork※Outdoor activities including hiking，camping，rafting，and ziplining（高空滑索）※Homestay with a local Costa Rican family※V olunteer work in needy neighborhoodsOur Teaching Methods：We are proud to use TPRS —Total Physical Response Storytelling —in our curriculum.This innovative method uses strange and amusing stories to teach new vocabulary，increase fluency，and get students involved by giving them the opportunity to alter the details themselves.Because of the silliness，creativity，and repetition involved，TPRS allows students to learn easily and remember information effortlessly.Memorizing vocabulary and listening to lectures on grammar are slow，inefficient ways to learn a new language.The best way to truly learn and commit new material to memory is through conversation.In our Spanish classes，students can expect to speak up to 80% of each class.By speaking in the new language freely and consistently，students can see progress faster because they are using the new grammar and vocabulary that they have learned at the same time.This helps the brain remember the new words and grammar structures for future use，making it much easier to progress.（1）What does the program do？A.It offers weekly Spanish classes.B.It focuses more on outdoor activities.C.It gives teachers a chance to receive training.D.It provides activities about the Spanish culture.（2）What is the best way to learn a language according to the text？A.Memorizing a larger vocabulary.B.Speaking more in the new language.C.Mastering more grammar structures.D.Writing stories to share with others.（3）What is the purpose of the text？A.To employ experienced Spanish teachers.B.To hire foreign volunteers for a program.C.To attract teen foreigners to a program.D.To introduce language learning methods.12．（10分）Glenn

tons -are more than just rubbish；they're a killer.Fish，sea birds，and turtles get caught in the netting and die，with more species at risk.Much shocked at this，Pranveer Singh Rathore，a materials-science engineer and materials R&D manager at Samsung，and his team set themselves the task of giving new life to the deadly st month，Samsung revealed a new line of Galaxy products made in part from recycled plastic fishing nets for the first time.The company estimates this year alone it can recycle over 50 tons of ocean-bound plastic into the key components that will go into its smartphones，tablets，and computers，thus taking a bite out of the global ghost nets problem.It's no small task to give waste fishing nets a second ac.The nets are typically made of a substance called nylon which tends to dramatically degrade（降解）the longer it sits in the ocean and is exposed to the sun. "This makes it nearly impossible to use abandoned fishing nets directly，" Rathore explains.Besides，high-performance smartphone，tablet，or PC has to be waterproof and can survive severe weather.The nylon in the fishing nets falls far short of that level of durability）.To deal with that problem，Samsung last summer teamed up with two partners：one to collect and transform the nets into tiny nylon pellets （颗粒）while the other to strengthen their toughness and durability.The end result：The partners hit upon an eco-friendly and high-performance plastic material that's being used to build the component parts for its latest line of products.For example，two parts of the Galaxy S22 mobile phone-the key bracket and the inner cover-are made of these fishing-net plastic materials.Samsung aims to use even more upcycled materials in future product lines."That's the hope for the globe and our mission，" Rathore smiles.（1）What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 2 refer to？A.Rubbish in the sea.B.Recycling the deadly nets.C.Ocean species' extinction.D.Ghost nets' threat to sea life.（2）What is paragraph 3 mainly about？A.The low level of durability of nylon.B.The second act of waste fishing nets.C.The great difficulty in reusing ghost nets.D.The positive comment on Samsung's products.（3）What is special about Samsung's new Galaxy products？A.They are made from tiny nylon pellets.B.They put an end to the problem of fishing nets.C.They can stand up to water and severe weather.D.They contain materials recycled from ghost nets.（4）What can we learn about Rathore's work？A.It makes plastic easier to break down.B.It marks the shift of Samsung's mission.C.It protects the planet from choking on plastic.D.It raises public awareness of ocean exploration.14．（10分）Modern zoos aim to promote animal conservation，educate people，and support further wildlife research.Staff are devoted to providing species specific housing and appropriate diets to ensure that the animals' lives are as natural as possible within captivity （圈养）.In fact，most zoo animals have been born and bred in captivity.They have never experienced "the wild"，which many people assume is a wonderful and safe place，despite destruction of natural habits for palm oil threats from climate change or the increase in poaching.There are two ways capturing animals helps conserve them.Zoo conservation work can be in-situ （在原处）where money：expertise and sometimes staff are provided to protect animals and their habitats in the rge，charming animals such as pandas，tigers or elephants draw the crowds.These flagship species help to raise the image and funds for in-situ conservation efforts for the not so well known species "Ex-situ" conservation，meanwhile，takes place outside of the animals' natural habitats，usually back at the zoo and often involving international captive breeding programs.These studbooks（良种登记册）can outline suitable genetic matches for breeding，to keep a sustainable captive population of a certain species and ensure genetic variation.In the UK a least，zoos must have a written education strategy and an active education programme.If you have been to an accredited （官方认可的）zoo recently you will have noticed they use games and technology to go way beyond these basic requirements.Research within zoos often looks at animal behaviour or welfare helping to ensure the animals are well housed and fed.Other research investigates the impact humans have on the zoo animals from the visitor effect to the relationships which can be formed between the animals and their keepers.Research also focuses on biological functioning of animals.Much of this is work that cannot be conducted in the wild if the animals live in remote or inhospitable areas.Overall，zoos provide opportunities to observe and engage with exotic （外国的）animals，many of which may be threatened with extinction in the wild.Seeing them up close can cause a passion for biology，conservation and the environment.（1）What do people think of "the wild？A.It poses a danger to humans.B.It is perfect for large animalsC.It is an ideal habitat for animals.D.It guarantees the safety of animals.（2）What highlights"ex-situ" conservation？A.Saving the conservation cost.B.Attracting more visitors to zoos.C.Keeping a species' population stable.D.Changing the genes of a certain species.（3）What is Paragraph 6 mainly about？A.How zoo keepers get along with animals.B.How zoos can contribute to research work.C.What researchers are expected to do in zoos.D.Why it is difficult 10 carry out research in the wild.（4）What is the author's purpose in writng the text？A.To show zoos ways to raise animals.B.To stress modern zoos research value.C.To defend zoos role in protecting animals.D.To advise zoos to release animals into the wild.第二节（共1小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下而短文，从文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
