16、0. D. NOK 120.I live in Xizhou in Yunnan Province, on the historic Tea Horse Road. I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldnt imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world.Last May, I
17、 met Paul. He told me that it was his first time in China. He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu-Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road
18、 and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism.I decided to accompany Paul on his walk toward Yunnan. On September 28, 2021, we set out. Our days were simple: walk, eat, sle
19、ep, and repeat. We woke up at sunrise, set off in high spirits, and rested at sunset, dragging ourselves into exhausted sleep.We met many people on the road. Some were curious, surrounding us and watching us; some gave us directions; some invited us into their home to take a rest; some spoke of the
20、charm of their hometown. We met many beautiful souls, simple souls and warm souls. We were walking with our minds.Together, we were impressed by the biodiversity of the Gaoligong Mountains. As I walked on ancient paths through mountains, I seemed to hear the antique voices of past travelers urging m
21、e to be careful on the road.Looking back on the more than 200 miles I walked with Paul, I came to a realization. Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the di
22、stance between each other, and sharing each othefs cultures.4. How did the writer first respond to Paufs travel plan?A. Scared.B. Puzzled.C. Disappointed. D. Surprised.5.

The concept of integrity has played a key role in mor
25、al philosophy throughout history and is promoted in all societies because of its importance to social relations. Individual integrity is vital to society, one that enables people to make use of their capacity for critical reflection, does not force people to take up particular roles and does not enc
26、ourage individuals to betray （背叛）each other. Besides, societies can be favorable to the development of individual integrity.Individual integrity can lift up the spirits of the entire society. It can shape the lives of people living in a particular society, the lives of all fellow people and, in its
27、broadest sense, even the destiny （命运）of a nation. By contrast, if those living in the society are corrupt, it could have bad effects, jeopardizing the healthy morality of the society.On the other hand, a society can be favorable to the development of individual integrity.Society expects and requires
28、 integrity. A society consisting of people of integrity, and people who never compromise on their principles, could have a positive mark on the personal development on its members. Being a part of such a morally lively community could serve as a basis for absorbing traits of good character. This cou
29、ld be of a distinct advantage to any individuals in the society.Nonetheless, some social structures are of the wrong sort for some individuals to pursue integrity. If that is the case, we have to ask questions about the moral nature of society first before raising questions about individual integrit
30、y. Questions about integrity may turn out to be about what kind of society it is, rather than about the relationship between individual interests and characteristics of a society. The pursuit of adequate individual integrity often depends, not so much on understanding who one is and what one believe
31、s and is committed to, but rather understanding what ones society is and imagining what it could be.Under no circumstances can we underestimate the importance of human integrity in a society. People, who are honest, trustworthy, compassionate and caring, are the factors decisive in the growth of ind
32、ividuals as well as the development of a society.8. Individual integrity has been valued in society because.A. it helps develop philosophyB. it is crucial to social relationsC. it is the basis of critical thinkingD. it ensures peoples particular roles9.

The pursuit of individual integrity changes with time.C. The nature of society is decided by economic development.D
34、. Social structures guide the formation of individual integrity.11. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point C: ConclusionDeath is a serious theme worthy of great poets. For example, John Keats, When I Have Fears That I May Cease t
35、o Be and John Donnes Death, Be Not Proud both discuss death in reflective ways. However, the imagery in these poems shows that while Keats believed death can only bring destruction, Donne believed death can be overcome.Keats was afraid of death, because to him death meant the loss of those things th
36、at made his life worth living: 6.on the shore/Of the wide world I stand alone, and think/Till love and fame to nothingness do sink/6 In other words, Keats fear was that death was a “nothingness that would arrive before he could finish his lifers work or find his true love.Donne had a different attit
37、ude toward death, and so the imagery in his poem is different, too. To Donne, death should “be not proud”, because it was not “mighty and dreadful”. He also said that death was like rest and sleep”. Donne believed that we would all wake from the sleep of death to everlasting life, just as we wake fr
38、om our normal sleep to our everyday lives.Keats and Donne both knew that death was a part of life, and both poets used powerful imagery to talk about that difficult theme. The differences in this imagery show two very different attitudes toward the subject, one of which is much more positive than th
39、e other. Which poet to believe is up to the reader to decide.Not surprisingly, the readers9 own experiences may play a part in the way they respond to these poets approaches. Like the two poets and their beliefs, contemporary readers also may be divided on the subject. This may explain why Keats and
40、 Donnes poetry remains fascinating years after their deaths.12. Which of the following may Keats agree with?A. Death could stop him from writing poetry.C. Death was not mighty and dreadful.13. What did Donne believe in his poems?A. Death was generally powerful and terrible.B. Death could help him fi
41、nd true love.D. Death could be overcome by people.B , Death was only a ceaseless sleep.C. Death was merely the loss of work and love. D. Death was hardly worth the fear.14. Why may contemporary readers view the serious subject of Keats and Donne differently?A. Because they are attracted to the two p
42、oets everlasting opposite beliefs.B , Because they are divided naturally by their positive or negative personalities.C. Because their own life experiences affect the understandings of the poems.D. Because their preferences for the poets strong imageries are various.15. Which of the following best de
43、scribes the main writing style of the passage?A. Analysis.B. Argument.C. Comparison. D. Reasoning.二、七选五The Power of PoetryPeople are suffering from depression and anxiety now more than ever.

44、ommon sense that reading fiction can increase empathy （同理心）.16 Well,for decades, scientific studies have proven that poetry has a beneficial impact in managing pain, handling stress and improving personal well-being. Lefs dive a bit deeper, and consider some specific ways in which poetry can help me
45、ntal health.Poetry can be a form of comfort. By reading poetry, we can get the escapism we long for, transporting us out of our own world and into someone elses. 17 Trying to uncover the meaning of a poem can give us a necessary break from our inner monologue as well.It can be a shared experience. P
46、oems are often quite emotional in nature. 18 Theres something quite comforting in the knowledge that were not alone and that our pain is shared with someone else. Poetry often reveals that there is universality （普遍性）in the human experience.19 Many poems creatively tackle some sensitive topics like d
47、epression, anxiety, abuse, poverty, all of which can be found in a poetic form, empowering both the poet and the reader.To put it lightly, life is tough, but its important to remember that were not alone. The next time youre feeling hopeless, try diving into the works of a poet. 20 Who knows?A. Howe
