In 2021, fresh out of high school, I had difficulty in choosing a major before college. With only two options left, I was in deep dilemma. My uncle, an influential person in the family, suggested that I should do a work placement to gain experience for a month in a bank followed by a month in a hospital so that I could make a
decision. It seemed like a brilliant idea.
Near the end of my month at the hospital, I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank had offered a more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. While hospital was full of excitement, the training was challenging. It seemed that the bank was going to win out.
Then one day when I was driving home from the hospital, I witnessed a terrible accident. Two cars crashed, causing a boy lying motionless in the middle of the road. People gathered around him but no one could really help. As a matter of fact, I wanted to keep going and ignored it, but the urge to stop and help was stronger. I got out of my car and tried to stop his bleeding but didn’t succeed. With the help of some bystanders, I lifted his unconscious body into the back seat of my car, and rushed him to the hospital. The next day, the doctor introduced me as “the person who saved your son’s life” to the boy’s parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. Everyone got up, with grateful smiles on their faces. The boy, now managed a smile though unable to speak.
What a feeling it was to help save the life of another person! I spent the rest of the day in a state of excitement. Driving home that evening, I knew what I would prefer for the rest of my life. 4．What does the underlined w ord “dilemma” in Paragraph 1 mean
A．Trouble. B．Settlement.
C．Attraction. D．Pride.
5．What can we know from paragraph 3
A．The writer saved the boy without hesitation.
B．The injured boy lost his life in the accident.
C．The boy’s relatives appreciated the writer’s help.
D．The writer managed to stop the boy’s bleeding.
6．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．The writer decided to work in a bank.
B．The writer would be a medical student.
C．The writer was concerned about what he had done.
D．The writer still had no idea what major to choose.
7．What would be a suitable title for the text
A．No pains, no gains. B．Follow your heart and just do it. C．Failure is the mother of success. D．Where there is a will, there is a way.
C
Buildings, pollution, poor soil, insects, and even car crashes can add to tree loss. However, between 2016 and 2021, the city of Seattle in Washington state was reported to have lost about 255 hectares of tree covering, for which climate change was blamed. Then came the driest summer on Seattle’s record books in 2022.
The drier conditions and hotter temperatures have left many trees with brown leaves, naked branches, and extreme seeding. These are all signs of tree stress.
According to Nicholas Johnson, a tree expert for Seattle City Parks, if this warming climate continues we are going to have a lot of trees die. Just like people, under the heat trees get weak. Researchers from France and Australia studied the effect of hotter temperatures and less rain on more than 3,100 trees and plants in 164 cities across 78 countries. They found about half the trees in the cities were experiencing climate conditions beyond their limits. They also found that by 2050 nearly all trees planted in Australian cities will not survive.
It’s not the gradual change but these extreme swings of too much water, too little water, too much wind, and terrible storms that are going to cause these rapid changes. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina destroyed about 10 percent of the trees in New Orleans, Louisiana. And in 2021, Hurricane Ida uprooted many new tree plantings.
To settle the problem of tree loss, non-native trees, have been brought to cities for some time. In the city of Bellevue, Washington, experts are growing different kinds of trees specifically for climate change. On city grounds, they are planting baby giant sequoias, just a few centimeters tall. The giant sequoias are not native to the
Pacific Northwest area. But the trees can deal with the lack of rain and insects. Once these trees are established, they grow incredibly fast. Having many different kinds and ages of trees is important to keeping urban forests alive.
“Life always finds a way,” said Nicholas Johnson. “And in Seattle, people are helping life find a way.”
8．What is the first paragraph mainly about
A．Natural reasons for tree loss. B．The terrible climate in Seattle in recent years.
C．The bad condition of trees in Seattle. D．The signs of tree stress. 9．What is endangering the trees in Australia cities A．Buildings. B．Pollution.
C．Car crashes. D．Extreme climate.
10．How do tree experts solve the problem of tree death
A．By improving planting methods. B．By changing the kinds of trees.
C．By treating trees as babies. D．By improving the soil quality. 11．Which is Nicholas Johnson’s attitude to the future of trees in cities
A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Doubtful. D．Uninterested.
D
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older
buildings in a historic area of a city In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic reasons why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours, where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative (保守的) and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was
there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.
12．What can we learn about historical buildings from paragraph 1 A．All of them are not attractive.
B．Most of them are hard to preserve.
C．People want to preserve the historic feel.
D．They are more pleasing than modern ones.
13．When it comes to the coexistence of old buildings and new ones,
A．the author is doubtful about it.
B．the author is unclear about it.
C．the author firmly believes that the old have to give way to the new.
D．the author is in favor of it.
14．What is the the duty of the architect and planner implied in the passage
A．Destroy old buildings.
B．Put things in a different place.
C．Choose new architectural styles.
D．Respect people’s feelings for historical buildings.
15．What is the main purpose of the text
A．To instruct. B．To argue. C．To warn. D．To educate.

Jack’s world wa s falling down and breaking into pieces and waking up early and going to work was the last thing he desired to do. On Wednesday he came out of his small discouraging room and walked into the crowded and hot bus, and leaned against a seat, started closing his eyes and dreamed up.
All of a sudden, his dream was stopped by the hissing of the bus door. It was his stop and in a rush, he hurried out of the bus. He started coughing since exhaust hit him and he thought to himself
not the finest start of the day... oh well, as usual.
Jack still had time, since his working day would only start in half an hour, so to gather his thoughts and to put himself in another annoying work day. Despite what it may seem his life was not that bad. He was a normal guy with some hobbies and friends, a good job, and a bright future. Yet incidentally this August was tough on him and it threw him off track.
While walking he met a couple. He could hear them talking in a foreign language and concluded that the language was Russian. He thought that they are probably tourists and are going to simply pass by, yet to his surprise in a broken English the woman asked him.
“Excuse me! Please, could you help ”
“Yes, sure, what can I do for you ”
“We tourist and we lost. Red Tree hotel. Where is it You know ”Although knowing where exactly the hotel was and although he wasn’t in a hurry, because of being so involved in his own hardships and his bad mood he mechanically (机械地) lied saying “I have no idea. I’m sorry... I’m in a hurry.” and moved off. H e walked about 100 feet and a wave of shame and guilt covered him. Then he imagined how horrifying and difficult it could be staying in a huge city as New York without being able to properly
communicate.
