  No injuries were reported on the plane,and the flight took off once again 7.5 hours after the first attempt.“It was like a split second ofpanic…that resulted in this nervous reaction on the plane,"said passenger Brian Healy.[2]"There was total quiet,and then there was relief when the plane came to a stop."An email from JetBlue read,“Our team is working to accommodate customers on later flights.”

  周日上午，捷蓝航空公司一架从西棕榈滩飞往纽约市的航班撞上一只鸟，被迫返航降落。从棕榈滩国际机场到拉瓜迪亚机场的航班在罢工后起飞几分钟后就掉头了。
  没有人员伤亡报告，飞机在第一次尝试后7.5小时再次起飞。乘客布莱恩·希利说：“这就像一瞬间的恐慌，导致了飞机上的紧张反应。”“当时一片寂静，然后飞机停了下来，大家都松了一口气。”捷蓝航空的一封电子邮件写道：“我们的团队正在努力让客户乘坐晚些时候的航班。”

2024-06-01-01.—开头第一句—原词复现两个“a bird”

1. A. It hit a bird shortly after takeoff.
   B. Its crew members went on strike.
   C. It narrowly escaped a plane crash when turning around.

C.  飞机在掉头时险些坠毁。                          
D.  机长在迫降时受了轻伤。

新闻开头提到，周日上午，捷蓝航空公司一架从西棕榈滩飞往纽约的飞机在撞上一只鸟后被迫掉头降落。 由此可知，选项A为正确答案。其余选项新闻中均未提及，故排除。

2024-06-01-02.—结尾第一句—原词复现无—同义替换还难

2. A. Panic.
   B. Nervous.
   C. Relieved.
   D. Contented.

2.How did the passengers feel when the plane came to a stop,according to Brian Healy?
据布莱恩·希利称，当飞机停稳后，乘客们有什么感受?

B.  紧张。
C.  如释重负。
D.  满足。

新闻末尾部分引述乘客布莱恩·希利的话提到：“那就像一瞬间的恐慌……造成飞机上乘客的紧张反应。
人们完全安静了下来，当飞机停稳后才松了一口气。”由此可知，选项C 为正确答案。题目问的是飞机停稳后乘客的反应，恐慌、紧张是发生事故后乘客的第一反应，选项A 、B答非所问，故排除。D 选项新闻中未提及，故排除。

Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.

【听力原文】
  A deadly snake,which had finally been tracked down after escaping a zoo,has slipped away for the second time. The poisonous snake forced the closure of the attaction last week when staff noticed the disappearance.
  After six days of desperate searching,he was eventually found and placed in a supposedly secure area.[3]But it seems the animal is no fan of the zoo,because yet again he is out on the loose.[4] The snake is a relative newcomer to the zoo but has already been frustrating its staff.The staff believe he squeezed himself out of a gap located around new energy-saving bulbs installed inside the snake house.He was only found the first time around because staff brought in a special machine to trace him inside a wall opening.
  This kind of snake is one of the most deadly and poisonous in the wild,and they can range from 3 to 5 meters in length.

  一条从动物园逃出来的致命蛇第二次溜之大吉了。上周，当工作人员注意到这条毒蛇失踪时，该景点被迫关闭。
  经过六天的不顾一切的搜寻，他终于被找到了，并被安置在一个据称安全的地方。但这只动物似乎不喜欢动物园，因为它又一次跑了出来这条蛇对动物园来说是新来者，但它已经让动物园的工作人员感到沮丧了。工作人员认为，他是从蛇屋里安装的新节能灯泡周围的缝隙里挤出来的。它第一次被发现是因为工作人员带来了一台特殊的机器，在一个墙洞里追踪它。
  这种蛇是野外最致命和最有毒的蛇之一，它们的长度可以从3到5米不等。

2024-06-01-03.—开头第四句—原词复现三个“the zoo … again”

3. A. He is now kept in a secure area.
   B. He has escaped the zoo once again.
   C. He has been caught a second time.
   D. He finally disappeared six days ago.

3.What do we learn about the deadly snake from the news report?
从新闻报道中，我们了解到这条致命的蛇的什么信息?
A.  它现在被关在一个安全的地方。            
B.  它又一次逃出了动物园。 
C.  它再次被捉。                 
D.  他最终在六天前失踪了。

新闻开头部分提到，一条致命的蛇在逃离动物园后终于被找到，但它又第二次溜走了。新闻接下来详细描述这条蛇两次逃离的细节：第一次逃跑后，这条蛇经过工作人员六天的拼命搜寻后终于被找到，并被安置在一个据说安全的区域，但是它再一次出逃。直到新闻最后都没有提及这条蛇是否再次被找到，所以选项 B为正确答案，同时排除选项C 。选项A错误，新闻中提到，这条毒蛇第一次逃跑并被找到后，被安置在一个安全的地方，而这并不是当下这条蛇的境况，故排除。选项D错误，新闻中提到，这条毒蛇第一次逃跑后，动物园经过六天的搜寻终于找到了它，而根据新闻所述，这条蛇被安置后又再次出逃，可见D 项的说法不准确，故排除。

2024-06-01-04.—开头第五句—原词复现一个“frustrate”

4. A. Squeezed.
   B. Threatened.
   C. Disappointed.
   D. Frustrated.

4.How have the zoo staff been feeling about the snake?对于这条蛇，动物园的工作人员有什么感受?

B.  受到威胁的。   
C.  失望的。                         
D.  受挫的。

新闻后面提到，这条蛇对动物园来说是新来者，但它已经让动物园的工作人员感到挫败了，故选项D 为正确答案。A项Squeezed 是新闻中提到的一个词，描述的是工作人员猜测它再次出逃是通过挤进新安装的节能灯泡周围的缝隙实现逃脱的，不是工作人员对这条蛇的感受，故排除。其余两项新闻中均未提及，也排除。

Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.

【听力原文】
  Electric bikes have been the craze in downtown Jacksonville since they were first introduced earlier this month as a one-year pilot program.[5] But they’re leading to safety concerns,mainly at night when some riders don’t follow the rules of the road.
  As the night goes on,groups of riders are often seen traveling in just about every direction in the streets and on pedestrian paths.That is increasing the probability of dangerous accidents.
  [6] Electric bike riders have to follow all the same rules as you would if you were in an automobile.That means no running red lights or traveling in the opposite direction of traffic on one-way streets.
  [7] City Council Member Anna Cumber was instrumental in introducing the electric bikes to Jacksonville as a way to bring new life into downtown.And she’s aware of the concerns.Cumber said,"People can have fun,but both drivers and riders are responsible for paying ttention while on the road.And never assume the driveris going to stop or see you.”

  本月早些时候，电动自行车作为为期一年的试点项目首次推出，在杰克逊维尔市中心掀起了一阵热潮但它们也引发了安全问题，主要是在夜间，一些骑手不遵守道路规则。

  骑电动自行车的人必须遵守和开车一样的规则。这意味着不能闯红灯，也不能在单行道上逆行。
  市议会成员安娜·康伯在将电动自行车引入杰克逊维尔的过程中发挥了重要作用，为市中心带来了新的生活。她意识到了人们的担忧。康伯说：“人们可以玩得开心，但司机和乘客都有责任在路上集中注意力。永远不要以为司机会停下来或看到你。”

D. 它引发了安全担忧。  

新闻开头提到，目杰克逊维尔币中心推出为期一年的电动目行车试点项目以来，电动目行车在币中心掀起了一股热潮，但它们也引发了安全担忧。由此可知，选项D为正确答案。根据新闻报道，电动自行车引发了安全担忧，即人们担心会出现安全问题，但并未提及当地居民质疑引入电动自行车这一举措，故排除选项C。其余两项新闻中均未提及，故排除。

新闻中提到，电动自行车骑行者必须遵守和开车一样的规则。这意味着不能闯红灯，也不能在单行道上逆行。由此可知，选项C为正确答案。新闻中提到，电动自行车不能在单行道上逆行，并非不让其进入单行道，故排除选项A。其余两项新闻中均未提及，故排除。

Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.

【听力原文】

  A new study has cast doubt on historic research suggesting that the season or month of someone’s birth is associated with an increased risk of certain mental health conditions.The study looks at symptoms of anxiety and depression among more than 70,000 older adults in Europe.[3] A number of past studies have found the link between season of birth and mental health diagnoses.
  Researchers have suggested that such links could arise from various things.These include nutrient intake,sun exposure,climate,and disease exposure varying across the course of the year.However,evidence has been mixed. More recent studies have suggested that factors such as social class or economic background have more to do with these diagnoses than month of birth.
  [4] Overall,the new study found no significant relationship between participants’month of birth and symptoms of depression or anxiety.There was some variability in some countries.In Poland,depressive symptoms fluctuated a little depending on birth month.In the Czech Republic,the same was true of anxiety symptoms.But on the whole,there was no systematic pattern.

  一项新的研究对历史研究提出了质疑，该研究表明，一个人的出生季节或月份与某些心理健康状况的风险增加有关。这项研究调查了欧洲7万多名老年人的焦虑和抑郁症状过去的一些研究发现，出生季节和心理健康诊断之间存在联系。
  研究人员认为，这种联系可能源于多种因素。这些因素包括营养摄入、阳光照射、气候和一年中不同的疾病暴露。然而，证据不一。最近的研究表明，社会阶层或经济背景等因素与这些诊断的关系比出生月份更大。
  总的来说，新的研究发现参与者的出生月份和抑郁或焦虑症状之间没有明显的关系。在一些国家存在一些差异。在波兰，随着出生月份的不同，抑郁症状略有波动。在捷克共和国，焦虑症状也是如此。但总的来说，没有系统的模式。

2024-06-02-03.—开头第三句—原词复现两个“mental health”

3. A. It plays a less important role in one’s health than nutrient intake.
   B. It impacts people’s health to a lesser degree than sun exposure.
   C. It is associated with people’s mental health conditions.
   D. It is linked with older adults’ symptoms of depression.

3.What have a number of past studies found about season of birth?
关于出生季节，过去的一些研究发现了什么?
A. 它对人们健康所起的作用没有营养摄入来的重要。  
B. 它对人们健康的影响程度低于日晒。    
C.它与人们的精神健康状况有关。          
D.它与老年人的抑郁症状有关。

新闻中提到，过去的一些研究发现了出生季节与精神健康诊断之间的联系，故选项C为正确答案。选项A和B都是利用新闻中的细节信息设置的干扰项，新闻只提到了这些影响因素，但并未把出生季节和营养摄入、日晒的影响程度进行对比，故排除这两项。新闻中提到，老年人的焦虑和抑郁症状是由一项新研究进行调查的，而非过去的研究，故选项D 可排除。

2024-06-02-04.—结尾第三句—原词复现半个“significant”，同义替换“no significant”替换为“insignificant”

4. A. It was indefinite.
   B. It was systematic.
   C. It was straightforward.
   D. It was insignificant.

4.What did the new study find about the relationship between participants'month of birth and symptoms of depression?
关于参与者的出生月份与抑郁症症状之间的关系，这项新研究发现了什么?
A.它是不明确的。                                
B.它是系统性的。 
C.它是直接的。
D.它是微不足道的。

新闻中提到，最近更多的研究表明，与出生月份相比，社会阶层或经济背景等因素与这些(精神健康)诊断有更大的关系。新闻结尾部分提到，总体而言，新研究发现，参与者的出生月份与他们的抑郁或焦虑症状之间不存在显著的关系(found no significant relationship)。言外之意，二者之间有关系，但是微不足道，不足挂齿，选项D中的insignificant 与原文中的no significant含义一致，故为答案。
选项A具有一定的迷惑性，但要注意indefinite的含义是“不明确的，不清楚的”，如代入原文，指的是或许有关系，或许没有关系，这显然违背了原文的含义，故排除。
新闻最后提到，一些国家的情况有所不同，但总体来说，没有发现系统性的模式，故排除B项“它是系统性的”。
C项新闻中未提及，故排除。

Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.

【听力原文】
  Genetic researchers in China have made a clone of a star police dog.The clone was born in a laboratory in Beijing in December.Tests show that the clone and her mother are almost identical genetically.The mother dog helped solve multiple murders and many other crimes.[5] The clone has already performed better than traditionally bred dogs on several tests.
  [6] lf the clone continues to perform as well as expected, it could mean a huge reduction in the training time for police dogs, which usually takes about five years. The ultimate goal of scientists is to produce clones of talented police dogs that can be trained in months instead of years. [7] However, this goal is not yet possible due to the current costs of the technology.
  This is not the first time a clone has been made of a star police dog.In South Korea,six clones began working with the police in 2008.

  中国基因研究人员克隆出一只明星警犬。这只克隆体于去年12月在北京的一个实验室出生。测试表明，克隆体和她的母亲在基因上几乎完全相同。这只狗妈妈帮助侦破了多起谋杀案和许多其他犯罪案件在几项测试中，克隆犬的表现已经优于传统育种犬。
  如果克隆犬继续表现得像预期的那样好，这可能意味着警犬的训练时间将大大减少，警犬通常需要大约5年的训练时间。科学家们的最终目标是克隆出可以在几个月而不是几年的时间内训练出来的天才警犬。然而，由于目前的技术成本，这一目标尚不可能实现。
  这并不是第一次克隆出明星警犬。在韩国，六名克隆人于2008年开始与警方合作。

2024-06-02-05.—开头第四句—原词复现三个“better than … dog”

5. A. It has helped solve several murder cases.
   B. It has become a star police dog in Beijing.
   C. It has surpassed its mother in performance.
   D. It has done better than naturally born dogs.

5.What do the researchers'tests show about the cloned dog?

A.  它帮助侦破了多起谋杀案。                
B.  它已成为北京的明星警犬。
C.  它的表现超过了它的母亲。                
D.  它比自然出生的狗表现得更好。

新闻开头提到，基因研究人员所做的试验表明，克隆犬和它母亲的基因几乎完全相同。在多项试验中，克隆犬的表现已经优于传统饲养的警犬。由此可知，选项D为正确答案。选项A“它帮助侦破了多起谋杀案”是克隆犬的母亲所为，故排除。其余两个选项新闻中并未提及，可排除。

2024-06-02-06.—结尾第三四句—原词复现三个“reduce … training time”

6. A. To speed up investigation into criminal cases.
   B. To test the feasibility of cloning technology.
   C. To cut down training expenses.
   D. To reduce their training time.

6.What is the scientists'purpose in cloning police dogs?
科学家克隆警犬的目的是什么?
A.加快犯罪案件的侦破。                    
B.测试克隆技术的可行性。
C.减少训练开支。
D. 缩短训练的时间。       

新闻中提到，如果克隆犬继续保持预期的良好表现，那就意味着警犬的训练时间将大大缩短，训练警犬通常需要五年左右的时间。科学家们的终极目标是培育出几个月就能训练好的而不是几年才能训练好的克隆天才警犬。可见，科学家培育克隆犬是为了缩短训练的时间，故选项D为正确答案。其余三个选项新闻中并未提及，可排除。

2024-06-02-07.—结尾第二句—原词复现两个“the technology”

7. A. Cloning is too complicated a process.
   B. The technology is yet to be accepted.
   C. Cloning is ethically controversial.
   D. The technology is too expensive.

7.Why does the news report say the scientists'goal is not yet possible?
为什么新闻报道说科学家的目标还不可能实现?
A.克隆过程过于复杂。                      
B.这项技术尚未被接受。  
C.克隆在伦理上有争议。                  
D.这项技术过于昂贵。 

新闻后面提到，由于目前的技术成本，科学家们的终极目标还无法实现，故选项D为正确答案。其余三个选项新闻中并未提及，可排除。
