It’s what forced Florio, 53, of Massapequa, to take part in the Town of Oyster Bay’s annual dune grass planting event on March 30 — an effort to help stabilize the beach dunes against shoreline erosion (侵蚀).Along with other volunteers, Florio had spent hours with her daughter, Kyra Florio-Marinello, 15, and her daughter’s friend Tatum Brennan, 15, planting the native plants that were intended to absorb water and prepare the sand against heavy wind. But four days later, a storm on Wednesday hit Long Island and washed the new plants away. “The latest dune planting event drew more than 150 volunteers who planted a lot across 2.7 acres of Atlantic Ocean sand dunes,” said Marta Kane, an Oyster Bay spokeswoman. “The dune grass cost the town $32,000.”The event, centered on volunteerism, drew some families whose elders were looking to share a message with a younger generation about the importance of protecting the environment. While the outcome resulted in a wave of disappointment, for some volunteers that was coupled with a sense of renewed motivation. Maria Rizzi, 70, of Massapequa, participated in the planting session with her grandson, Andrew Lepsis, 10. She said she would go back for another event with even more family members. “I’d be willing to do it again,” she said. “I’d even talk the older grand kids into coming.”While the storm swept the new plants away, Florio said Tobay Beach’s appearance aftermath serves as a powerful reminder of the need for more volunteer work on that stretch of sand. “Maybe it will inspire more people to volunteer and understand the need for us to protect our beaches,” Florio said.4.What is the aim of the dune grass planting event?A.To protect the ocean from being polluted.B.To keep the shoreline in good shape.C.To reduce extreme weather conditions.D.To prevent people playing on the beach. 5.Which can best describe the dune grass planting event?A.Popular but costly.B.Traditional but complex.C.Creative and economical.D.Successful and rewarding.6.How did Maria Rizzi feel about grass planting?A.Interesting.B.Disappointed.C.Hopeless.D.Motivated. 7.What can be the best title for the text?A.Great Grass Planting B.The Best of the StormC.Spirit Never Washed Away D.V olunteers Making History TogetherTrillions of evolution’s wonders, red-eyed periodical cicadas (蝉) that have pumps in their heads and jet-like muscles in their bodies, are about to emerge in numbers not seen in decades and possibly centuries. Crawling out from underground every 13 or 17 years, with a collective song as loud as jet engines, the periodical cicadas are nature’s kings of the calendar. These black bugs with bulging eyes differ from their greener cousins that come out annually. They stay buried year after year, until they surface and take over a landscape.This spring, an unusual cicada double population is about to invade a couple of parts of the United States in what University of Connecticut cicada expert John Cooley called “cicada-geddon”. The last time these two broods (a group of creatures) came out together was in 1803. Thomas Jefferson, the then president, wrote about cicadas in his Garden Book but mistakenly called them locusts (蝗虫). Usually mistaken for hungry and unrelated locusts, periodical cicadas are more annoying rather than causing great economic damage. They can hurt young trees and some fruit crops, but it’s not widespread and can be prevented.The largest geographic brood in the nation — called Brood XIX and coming out every 13 years — is about to march through the Southeast, having already created countless boreholes in the red Georgia clay. It’s a sure sign of the coming cicada occupation. “They emerge when the ground warms to 64 degrees, which is happening earlier than it used to because of climate change,” scientists said. “The bugs are brown at first but darken as they mature.”Soon after the insects appear in large numbers in Georgia and the rest of the Southeast, cicada cousins that come out every 17 years will inundate Illinois. They are Brood ⅩⅩ. “And when you put those two together… you would have more than anywhere else any other time,” University of Maryland entomologist Paula Shrewsbury said. “These two broods may actually overlap — but probably not interbreed in a small area near central Illinois.”8.How are periodical cicadas different from their greener cousins?A.They appear once a year.B.They look more beautiful.C.They have stronger muscles.D.They have a longer life circle.9.What is a common belief on periodical cicadas?A.They are a type of locusts.B.They have underestimated advantages.C.They are Thomas Jefferson’s inspiration.D.They only eat young trees and fruit crops. 10.What can be inferred about Brood ⅩⅩ?A.The red Georgia clay is more beneficial to them.B.Climate change may be confusing their schedules.C.The adult ones only live 4-6 weeks before they die.D.They are expected to be found throughout the world.11.What can best replace the underlined word “inundate” in the last paragraph?A.Strike out.B.Give up.C.Flood into.D.Jump at.Total solar eclipses (日食) have scared people since time out of mind. The first record of one, preserved on a clay tablet found at Ugarit, once a trade city but destroyed later in Syria, is believed from its age and location to describe either an eclipse that happened in 1375 BC or one in 1223 BC.Legendary explanations for eclipses include the Sun being eaten by dogs, frogs or dragons. The reality is not romantic. Why are total ones, like the one coming on April 8, so rare?Solar eclipses are a special case of phenomena called transits and occultations, in which an intervening (介于中间的) heavenly body stops light from a star reaching an observer. If the blocking body appears smaller in the sky than the star, the result is called a transit and looks like a dark spot crossing the star’s surface. If the blocking object appears larger than the star, the star disappears completely—an occultation. A total eclipse is an occultation.Solar eclipses may be either of these things, since the apparent sizes in the sky of the Sunand the Moon, viewed from Earth, are almost identical. If the Moon orbited Earth in the same plane as Earth orbits the Sun, eclipses would happen every month, but would be total only in the tropics (热带地区). In reality, the average interval between total eclipses is 18 months, and they may be seen from time to time all over the world. The path of totality across Earth’s surface is narrow and the period short (a maximum of just over seven and a half minutes). Outside these boundaries, the Sun will appear partially eclipsed, looking like a pie that something has taken a bite from.The Great North American Eclipse, as it has been called, will be a sight to be hold on April 8. But it should also be cherished, because total eclipses of the Sun will not happen for ever. Tidal friction (潮汐摩擦) causes the Moon to move away from Earth at 3.8 cm a year, making it appear smaller and smaller in the sky. In 600 million years or so the last, short totality will occur. 12.What does the clay tablet of Ugarit represent?A.Some figures of ancient animals.B.The Sun being eaten by some animals.C.Ancient people who were hunting for animals.D.The earliest total solar eclipse recorded.13.How does the author develop paragraph 2?A.By listing statistics.B.By giving definitions.C.By giving examples.D.By analyzing cause and effect.14.What can we learn about total solar eclipses from paragraph 3?A.Their duration is relatively longer.B.They take place every month actually.C.They are visible only from a narrow path.D.They look like a bite taken out of the Sun.15.What makes total solar eclipses so rare?A.The moving-away Moon.B.The stronger tide on Earth.C.The smaller attraction of the Moon for Earth.D.The changing distance between the Sun and Earth.How to have an attractive personalityDemonstrating an attractive personality is key to making friends and having lasting relationships. These traits (特性) give you the ability to inspire and fascinate others, making others more drawn to you as a result.Listen to others. 16 Instead of responding to a text, opening an email, or thinking about your next meal, pay attention to what the other person is saying. Show them you’re listening and interested by commenting on the story or asking questions.Speak sincerely. No one likes to be cheated. 17 If you can’t commit to something, it’s better to be honest about it than to have to tell them at the last minute that you can’t make it. When people ask for your opinion, you should be honest.18 You should always say what you believe in, be willing to take risks, and have the ability to admit your mistake without being worried about what other people will think. Doing this shows that you have self-confidence. This helps create an attractive personality.Know “how” vs “what”. How you say things is arguably more important than what you say. If you try to give someone a genuine compliment, but he or she thinks you say it with a sarcastic undertone, your compliment won’t mean a thing. 19 If you notice that people often take things you say the wrong way, there’s a good chance you can change how you speak. Ask your friends to make you aware of the way you’re coming across.Show enthusiasm for everything. Even if something makes you slightly uncomfortable, handle it with a smile on your face, an open mind, and a sense of humor. Not every day is going to be perfect, but being enthusiastic can help you accomplish anything. 20A.Tell people the truth.B.You may make things bad.C.Be aware of the way you speak.D.Have confidence in how you speak and act.E.When you act this way, people will love being around you.F.Asking questions is important when it comes to confidence.G.Listening is a trait that is often forgotten in today’s society.二、完形填空James Mogaji is a security officer at Providence College Raymond Hall in Rhode Island. His enthusiasm made him such an integral part of his students’ lives that they 21 him as one of their own family.Daniel Singh, a sophomore, described Mogaji as an attractive 22 in their residence hall, “He’s someone you’re 23 to.

2024届福建省三明市高三下学期三模英语试题

2024届福建省三明市高三下学期三模英语试题一、阅读理解4 Summer Jobs to Get Paid and Take a BreakCamp counsellor (辅导员)Most kids head off to camp during the summertime, and if you’re past the typical age of being a camper, relive your youth by becoming a summer camp counsellor. You can enjoy participating in activities, planning events, and partaking in arts and crafts. It’s one of the best summer jobs because it also builds your leadership skills while you earn extra money. Depending on your schedule, you can work to fit your needs. The average starting pay is $10.5 an hour.LifeguardSpending time on the water is something many people do during the summer. And if you're good at swimming, then being a lifeguard is a great option for you. The hours are flexible, and the pay is great, with the average hourly rate at $11.50.Amusement park employeeAn amusement park is a great place to work during the summertime. There are a variety of positions you can get hired for — from ride operator to food service to booth tender — and the average starting pay is $10 an hour. The hours are flexible and negotiable depending on where you decide to work: the larger the park, the more employees they’ll have, which could mean fewer hours they’ll need you to cover.Dog walkerIf you’re looking for a relaxing job, being a dog walker could be the right choice for you. Dog walking hours and pay are easily negotiable, as you can simply discuss with the dog’s owner what your availability is, when they need you, and what your pay rate is. Getting some exercise with a furry friend will feel more like a relaxing pastime than a job. And if you wish to continue being a dog walker, it’s the job that’s easiest to keep year-round.1.What is the benefit of being a camp counsellor?A.It brings back the glory.B.It boosts artistic creativity.C.It is easy to do and well-paid.D.It develops competence in leadership.2.For which job can the pay be negotiated?A.Camp counselor.B.Lifeguard.C.Amusement park employee.D.Dog walker.3.What do the four summer jobs have in common?A.They need full-time employees.B.The working hours are flexible.C.The pay remains unclear.D.They need relevant certificates.In 2023, the UK SpoGomi competition was scheduled for August, with the world cup in Tokyo in November. I formed my team with Alex Winship, and my brother Jonny.SpoGomi is a sport involving litter-picking by teams of three. Teams collect litter in given areas within a strict time limit, scoring point s for the weight of collected items, with some items awarded more points than others. One gram of cigarette butts is worth three points versus only 0.1 per gram for burnable rubbish. The team with the most point s wins.Initially we were drawn to taking part because of the prize of a trip to Japan. There were about 20 teams in the UK competition, which took place in London’s Hackney marshes. We won by only 33 points, which is equivalent to just one glass bottle.We were then heading for the world cup. The competition was intense. After the first half, Japan came top and we were second. My muscles were aching and I felt completely worn out from the heat of Tokyo on a sunny day. I didn’t have much more energy, and Iremember Alex and Jonny saying the same, but we had this feeling of being on the edge of something amazing. We had to just keep pushing. We pulled ahead in the second half while carrying several kilos of litter over two miles at a time. We ended up coming first,ahead of Japan, with 57 kg of rubbish collected.I wouldn’t have been someone who would have picked up litter off the street. At the early stages of our training, we were so bad at finding litter. Then, just after the London competition, on the way home, we saw so much. We were just much more aware of it.Once you’re drawn into SpoGomi, your attitude towards litter and how you contribute completely changes — it certainly has for us.4.What can we learn about SpoComi?A.It is a sport to pick up rubbish.B.It has particularly strict rules.C.It is a team consisting of 3.D.It sets limits to collected items.5.What was the result of the London competition?A.The result was controversial.B.No team entered the world cup.C.The author’s team had a narrow victory.D.The author’s team had an absolute advantage.6.How did the author feel in the second half of the world cup?A.Nervous but hopeful.B.Indifferent and bored.C.Exhausted but determined.D.Discouraged and uninterested.7.What is presented in the last paragraph?A.Providing tips on picking litter.B.Showing desire for SpoGomi training.C.Advocating devotion to the world cup.D.Encouraging engagement in SpoGomi.V ocal cords (声带) can easily get damaged by stress, infections, or overuse. It is not just overenthusiastic performers who are at risk of injuring their voice-boxes — according to a study, 30% of the population will experience a voice disorder at some point in their life.In a study published in the journal Nature Communications, a team of UCLA engineers have invented a patch-like (片状) device that can be worn on the skin outside the throat to help people with voice disorders speak.Even though the team’s device is an early prototype, it has the potential to offer a substantial improvement on current alternatives. When a person loses his voice today, the easiest fix is to resort to typing, texting, or writing notes to communicate. Typing can be slow and inconvenient, and writing notes is only possible in good lighting. More advanced solutions require special training to use, and surgical interventions are often invasive. A patch would theoretically be able to clear all these hurdles.The tiny patch consists of a self-powered sensing component, which detects and changes signals generated by the throat muscle movements into high-accuracy, analyzable electrical signals,which are then translated into speech signals using a machine-learning algorithm, and an actuation component, which turns those signals into voice expression. The patch was tested on eight healthy adults who pronounced five sentences (including: “Hope your experiments are going well!”, “Merry Christmas!” and “I love you!”) aloud or in silence, and its accuracy was more than 90%.There is a way to go yet. For now the device can only recognise the five phrases it was trained on. Plus, individual differences in vocal cords means the algorithm has to be personalised to each user. To make it practical at scale, the researchers will need to collect a lot more data. 8.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?A.The device can be fixed in a person's body.B.The device may be a fix to voice disorders.C.Most people are influenced by voice injury.D.Performers have a high risk of voice disorders.9.How does the author introduce the advantage of the patch?A.By listing data.B.By giving examples.C.By making comparison.D.By analyzing causes and effects.10.Which aspect of the device is mentioned in paragraph 4?A.Its application.B.Its principle.C.Its challenge.D.Its purpose.11.What is the author’s attitude toward the device?A.Unclear.B.Dismissive.C.Doubtful.D.Supportive.Unretirement: older people return to paid employmentThe disappearance of 565,000 mostly older people from the UK’s labour force was one of the problematic effects of Covid. In other countries, employment levels recovered more quickly to pre-2020 levels, making the UK exceptional. But while evidence in the past few months points to a change of this trend — the rise of “unretirement” — there is no room for relief.Government initiatives to address the issue have achieved little. The Treasury came up with the idea of “returnerships”, a variant of the skills training aimed at persuading mature people backto workplaces. But in reality this is not much more than a new label for existing training. Meanwhile, fewer than one in 20 of participants in the government’s “skills training camps” — courses intended to equip jobseekers for the opportunities in their area — are aged over 55.Mel Stride, the work and pensions secretary, championed the idea of over-50s delivering takeaways, and doing other jobs more readily associated with younger workers.Age should not be a barrier to anyone willing and able to do this kind of work. But more importantly, government ministers should extend employment beyond low-wage private sector vacancies(空缺) to labour shortages in health, education and social care — where umemployment problem is serious.Revealed in one survey, descriptions of returning to employment are highly variable.Some did so because they were struggling with the rising cost of living. Others found that they missed the company of co-workers, wanted to make a contribution to family finances or needed“a purpose in life”.The 26.5% of adults aged 50 to 64 who are economically inactive — neither working nor seeking work — is still too high. The coexistence of high levels of economic inactivity with key worker shortages in vital areas such as teaching remains hugely problematic. But rising employment levels can be seen as part of a delayed return to normality. And Ministers still need to better target policies to encourage economically inactive 50–to 64-year-olds back to work. 12.Why do the UK government plans have little effect?A.Mature people are unwilling to retire.B.The government lacks related equipment.C.The skills training isn’t essentially changed.D.The government doesn’t provide professional training.13.What should the government do for unretirement?A.Strengthen association with younger workers.B.Widen employment opportunities.C.Offer diverse training courses.D.Predict the potential problems.14.What was a reason for unretirement according to the survey?A.Financial struggle.B.Contribution to society.C.Family’s expectations.D.Co-workers’ encouragement.15.What is the text?A.A news report.B.A book review.C.A scientific report.D.A diary entry.Is It OK to Be Unhappy?Many people might say that you should always be happy, but is it okay to allow yourself time when sadness may prevail over happiness? We’ll explore how sadness offers people opportunities for self-reflection and why people should appreciate their sorrow.What is unhappiness?Many words are used to express sadness: suffering, misery, sorrow, pain, and more. It often results from other feelings like guilt, grief, anxiety, hopelessness, or anger. 16 It may differ from a person to another but it could change how you physically feel—a stomachache, headache, or difficulty sleep disorders.17Lots of people are growing unhappy due to mental health issues. Here are lists of situations: having problems with relationships, having trouble at home(eg. violence or financial issues), having trouble at school or work, comparing self to others, losing a loved one and being self-critical.Is it OK for a person to be unhappy?Everyone has different emotions: some are good while others can be negative. In other words, all people have feelings that are always changing in some way—and they happen for a reason! So is it OK to feel sadness? 18Sadness is a natural part of life.It is okay to be unhappy. Being sad doesn’t mean you are not coping with the situation.19 Learning to recognize sad emotions can make you adapt better, accept more easily, and persevere when things may be too hard at times.Things will eventually get better.Keep in mind your problems will not last forever and will eventually pass too! There is no right way to let go of sadness but what is not a secret is that the first step is the acknowledgment and acceptance of the pain you are feeling. It could be a lot but talking to someone you trust canbe helpful. 20 Eat nutritious food, exercise regularly, and get enough sleep.A.Why are people sad?B.Take good care of yourself.C.The answer is a definite yes.D.So what does it feel like to be sad?E.How can people get rid of sadness?F.There are also a lot of other effective solutions.G.Rather it helps you accept your problems and move on.二、完形填空Doing math helps people with a lot of daily life.

2024届辽宁省沈阳市高三下学期三模英语试卷一、阅读理解World-famous Botanical GardensFrom botanical history to scientific discovery, here are the top picks for people to explore.Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, London, England (1840)Located in London, Royal-Botanic Gardens at Kew are home to the world’s biggest collection of living plants. As a global resource for plant and fungal knowledge, it has more than 50,000 species of native and exotic plants, trees, and flowers on site. It is a setting rich in history that spans from royal decorations to wartime bombing, and its mission is to protect plants for the future of all life on Earth.The Humble Administrator’s Garden, Suzhou, China (1513)The Humble Administrators Garden in Suzhou is a great masterpiece with its attractive design and careful arrangement of natural elements. It’s centered around water features, with beautiful fountains, complex rockwork, and historic buildings surrounded by thick vegetation. The combination of these elements creates a picturesque landscape. Because of its exceptional cultural and historical significance, the garden has become a world heritage.Parque de Monserrate, Sintra, Portugal (1789)Monserrate is a combination of wild landscape with old ruins, formal lawned areas and lovely gardens. The garden sits on the lower slopes of the Sintra Mountains, which have one of the mildest climates in Europe, so the garden is frost-free. At its very centre is a grand palace, which has a distinctive mixture of different architectural styles. It has been the site of various buildings and gardens for hundreds of years.Missouri Botanical Garden, St Louis, USA (1859)Established in 1859, Missouri Botanical Garden is the oldest botanical garden in continuous use in North America. It is recognized internationally for its scientific research. With almost 50 themed gardens, Missouri Botanical Garden has been involved in the conservation of plants from native American regions and also from Madagascar, China and Central America.1.Why are the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew established?A.To collect tropical plants.B.To conserve various plants.C.To record the history of British plants.D.To provide a shelter for people in wartime. 2.What is special about the Humble Administrator’s Garden?A.It highlights the waterscape.B.It is surrounded by formal lawns.C.It includes many themed gardens.D.It shows different architectural ruins. 3.Where are science lovers most likely to go?A.London.B.Suzhou.C.Sintra.D.St Louis.Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.Sweden’s minister for schools, Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March. “Physical books are important for student learning.” The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools. It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six, the ministry has told the Associated Press.Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability, an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between 2016 and 2021.In comparison, Singapore — which topped the rankings — improved its PIRLS reading scores from 576 to 587 during the same period, and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly, from 559 in 2016 to 558 in 2021. An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects, education experts say. “There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,” Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a highly respected medical school focused on research, said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education.“We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.4.Why do Swedish schools return to paper books?A.To cater to parents’ increasing needs.B.To help with children’s independent learning.C.To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools.D.To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills.5.What does the underlined words “all-out embrace” mean in Paragraph 3?A.Total acceptance.B.Creative use.C.Rapid development.D.Serious addiction.6.What might Karolinska Institute agree with?A.Teachers should acquire more knowledge.B.Knowledge from digital tools may not be reliable.C.Digital tools smooth out learning barriers for children.D.The accessibility to digital sources should be improved.7.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Swedish Children’s Return to Paper B.Problems with Children’s EducationC.Popularity of Digitalization in Sweden D.Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in SwedenCut into the trunk of a pine tree, and you will see a familiar series of concentric (同中心的) rings. But not all trunks tell the same story. A study published in November reveals that the world’s oldest trees had a very different structure.Some 370 million years ago, cladoxylopsid trees stood at least eight meters tall, covered by branches instead of leaves. Today their rare remains reveal little about their insides; in most cases their inner structures had rotted before the trees fossilize, and storms had filled them with sand. But the recent find of two well-preserved fossils in China has exposed the trees’ inner workings — which are like no other species studied before.The cladoxylopsid tree was empty inside. Around the edges were thick, vertical strands (缕)containing xylem (木质部), a plant tissue that conducts water and mineral salts from the roots to all other parts. Modern trees add new layers of multiple xylem as they grow, creating a woody trunk with a single set of concentric rings. But in cladoxylopsids, “each strand of xylem had its own growth rings,” says scientist Christopher M. Berry of Cardiff University in Wales.Over a tree’s lifetime the strands would weave and cross. “It’s just incredibly complex,” Berry says. He likens these networks of flexible tissues and structures to the Eiffel Tower—if tower could grow, extend and split itself apart over time.Although the cladoxylopsid tree has no living descendants today, it is very important. Brigitte Meyer-Berthaud, a scientist, explains that these trees were among “the major carbon reservoirs of the Paleozoic”, a time period from 542 million to 251 million years ago. Cladoxylopsids made up our planet’s first forests, capturing carbon from the atmosphere and playing a part in adjusting Earth’s climate. Given this fact, maybe we should study these trees for the forests.8.What makes it hard to study cladoxylopsid trees?A.Their thick leaves.B.Their amazing height.C.Their poorly preserved remains.D.Their fossilized inner structures.9.What do we know about cladoxylopsid trees?A.They had many separate growth rings.B.Their solid cores contributed to their growth.C.They had a single set of regular concentric rings.D.Their roots needed more mineral salts than water.10.Why does the author mention “the Eiffel Tower” in paragraph 4?A.To stress the beauty of the Eiffel Tower.B.To prove the economic status of the tree.C.To disclose how limited the tree’s lifetime is.D.To show how complex the tree’s networks are.11.Why should we study cladoxylopsid trees?A.They were the only trees present during the Paleozoic era.B.They helped scientists better protect rich historical culture.C.They played a significant role in shaping the Earth as it is.D.They determined the carbon content in the Earth’s atmosphere.In a world of music streaming services, access to almost any song is just a few clicks away. Yet, the live concert lives on. People still fill sweaty basements to hear their favorite musicians play. And now neuroscientists might know why.Concerts are immersive social experiences in which people listen to and feel the music together. They are also dynamic — artists can adapt their playing according to the crowd’s reaction.It was this last difference that led neuroscientists, from Universities of Zurich and Oslo, to study the brain responses of people listening to music. In the experiment, participants lay in an MRI (核磁共振) scanner listening to the music through earphones, while a pianist was positioned outside the room. The pianist was shown the participant’s real-time brain activity as a form of feedback. In the recorded condition, participants listened to pre-recorded versions of the same tunes.The scientists were interested in how live music affected the areas of the brain that process emotions. In the live condition pianists were instructed to change their playing in order to drive the activity in one of these regions known as the amygdala.The results, just published in the journal PNAS, showed that live music had far more emotional impact. Whether the music was happy or sad, listening to the pianist playing in a dynamic way generated more activity in both the amygdala and other parts of the brain’s emotion processing network.The study was far from reconstructing the real experience of a concert, and the authors noted that the live music ended up sounding quite different from the recorded tracks, which may have driven some of the differences in participant’s brain activity. Some musical acts now attempt to recreate the real concert experience with everything but the artist — ABBA V oyage is a social, immersive show performed entirely by pre-recorded hologram avatars (全息图). But without Benny’s (a member of the band) ability to read the mood of the room, it will never quite match the real thing.12.What caused the scientists to study music listeners’ brain response?A.People’s preference to recorded music.B.The important social function of concerts.C.The changeable characteristic of live music.D.The easy accessibility of streaming services.13.How did the researchers carry out the experiment?A.By clarifying a concept.B.By making a comparison.C.By analyzing previous data.D.By referring to another study.14.Why does live music feel better than recorded music?A.It offers a more traditional and raw sound.B.It engages the brain’s emotion centers more.C.It fosters a sense of community and shared energy.D.It guarantees a deeperunderstanding of the music.15.What do we know from the last paragraph?A.The artists will be replaced by technology soon.B.The immersive audio makes live music special.C.The study recreated the experience of a real concert.D.It is vital for musicians to read the audiences’ mind.With summer fast approaching, it’s time to book your trips. 16 Here is something we can do to avoid them.Fail to disclose pre-existing medical conditions. It’s crucial that you tell your insurance provider about any medical conditions you have. 17 If you fail to disclose the problems, you won’t be covered for any issues related to the condition while you’re on holiday. If you’re not sure if you need to mention a medical condition you have, it’s worth asking your insurance provider.Don’t let your insurance provider know if there are any changes to your pre-existing medical conditions. To make sure you’re not out of pocket during your holiday, you need to inform your insurance provider of any developments in your medical history. 18 If anything changes in health, let your insurer know as soon as possible to avoid any complications.19 A good rule of thumb is to organize your travel insurance at the same time you book your holiday. Travel insurance covers you for your holiday as well as the period leading up to it. By booking your insurance at the same time as the holiday itself, you’ll be covered ifanything changes, or you need to cancel your trip. Make sure you organize insurance well in advance.Get your details wrong when booking travel insurance. Make sure to check your details carefully. You won’t be covered if you’ve given your insurer the wrong information. Double-check everything you’ve entered before finalizing your travel insurance. 20 Make sure you compare key features and benefits of travel insurance policies, and not just the price. Insurance is vital for your trip, so make sure you take the time to understand what you’re paying for.A.Leave buying insurance until the last minute.B.Taking out an annual policy for a long-stay trip.C.This includes any medical problems you have experienced.D.Ensure you check your details as soon as you receive your documents.E.Insurers ask for medical changes in order to give you the right level of cover.F.Make sure you have travel insurance and cards to avoid any unexpected payments. G.However, there are several travel insurance mistakes to stop you from getting a payout.二、完形填空A 40-year-old man in China found his calling — teaching quantum mechanics (量子力学) on social media — after being unemployed for more than 20 years.

In the last game of the last season,she came with a large group of friends.Printed on her shirt,in big bright red letters,were the words“BRAD’S SISTER.”Suddenly I was embarrassed, not for her presence,but for my previous attitude to her praise.Kicki left for college after that game.I finally have the remote control all to myself. However,watching TV alone has turned out to be boring.I went to visit her at college during a weekend,and as I stood outside her dorm,waiting for her to come out,a friend of hers whom I didn’t know walked past me and asked,“Hey,aren’t you Christie’s brother?”I smiled broadly and said proudly,“Yeah,I am.I’m Christie’s brother.”4.How did Brad feel about being an only child when he was young?A.Boring.B.Awesome.C.Tough.D.Awful.5.Why did Christie go to Brad’s games when he was in primary school?A.She hoped to know more about Brad.B.She was interested in basketball games.C.She was too young to be left alone at home.D.She wanted to spend more time with her family.6.Why did Brad feel embarrassed according to the last but one paragraph?A.He treated Christie’s praise lightly before.B.He forgot Christie’s presence at his last game.C.He saw the big bright red letters on Christi’s shirt.D.He received unwanted attention from Christie’s friends.7.What can be inferred about Christie?A.She was proud of Brad.B.She didn’t like watching TV.C.She enjoyed Brad’s calling her Kicki.D.She seldom went home during college.Researchers from Texas A&M University have developed a new bioremediation technology(生物整治技术)using plant-based material and fungi(真菌)that could clean up per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances.Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substance,also called“forever chemicals”or PFAS,are foundin soil,water,and even human and animal blood and may be harmful to humans and other species.They are found just about everywhere,from food wrappers to clothing.These chemicals may affect the immune system and may cause liver damage.Extremely high exposures to PFAS may also be linked to cancer.“PFAS do not degrade easily in the environment and are poisonous even in a very low concentration,”said Susie Dai,associate professor from Texas A&M.“They must be removed and destroyed to prevent human exposure and negative impacts on the ecosystem. PFAS are so stable and they can occur in water in a very low concentration and you have to concentrate them and then destroy them.”The only way to actually get rid of these“forever chemicals”is by burning them,which is a long and expensive process.But Texas A&M researchers have found a new way to use a plant-based material that adsorbs the pollutants.As explained by ScienceDirect, adsorption is“The use of solids for removing substances from either gas or liquid.”The adsorbent material is then consumed by microbial fungi.The team recently published their findings for the process framework,which they call RAPIMER,in Nature.“The plant’s cell wall material serves as a framework to adsorb the PFAS,”Dai explained.“Then this material and the adsorbed chemical serve as food for a microbial fungus. Then it’s gone,and you don’t have the disposal problem.”This sustainable PFAS clean-up system could be mass-produced for commercial use, leading to a better way to remove these chemical pollutants from the environment.It could also come in handy as the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency considers creating PFAS thresholds(阈值)to its water quality standards.8.What is mainly talked about in paragraph2?A.PFAS’s existing forms.B.PFAS’s doubtful origins.C.PFAS’s potential dangers.D.PFAS’s wide applications.9.What did Susie Dai say about PFAS?A.They are unstable.B.They degrade easily in the environment.C.They survive longer in water than in the air.D.They are poisonous even in a low concentration.land suitable for farming decreasing,and droughts getting worse due to climate change, where will this additional food come from?”12.What does the underlined part“a big change”in paragraph1refer to?A.The rapid increase of population.B.The threatens of warming the planet.C.The way to deal with natural disasters.D.The tendency to grow vegetables indoors.13.What does controlled environment agriculture mainly focus on?A.Making crops taste good.B.Planting crops with less water.C.Growing crops in extreme weather.D.Transporting crops from a long distance.14.What do we know about American greenhouse tomatoes?A.They are not high-yielding crops.B.They are not really environmentally friendly.C.They are grown far from population centers.D.They are mainly exported to norther Europe.15.Which of the following statements may the advocates agree with?A.Greenhouse planting is a necessary temporizing measure.B.Greenhouse planting is tailored for small-population nations.C.Greenhouse planting can help spread the idea of healthy eating.D.Greenhouse planting should be stopped from warming the world.二、七选五37.A.randomly B.exactly C.virtually D.regularly 38.A.copy B.share C.challenge D.describe 39.A.inspires B.describes C.indicates D.limits 40.A.forcing B.helping C.believing D.making四、用单词的适当形式完成短文五、短文改错51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

I'd say that he was about 40 years older than his classmates in my undergraduate communications class. He eagerly jumped into class discussions, with his humor and wisdom of experience. And he was always respectful of the other students' perspectives, as if each of them were a teacher. Jerry Valencia walked in with a smile-and he left with one too. "These students gave me the confidence that I didn't need to feel bad about my age, " Valencia says. One day, I spotted Valencia on campus. He said he would have to stop taking classes that semester and reapply for next year. By then, he hoped to have earned enough money and have his student-loan papers in order. He asked seriously whether he could still sit in on my communications class. Sure, I said. But he wouldn't get any credit. No problem he said. Soon there he was again, back at his old desk, jumping into our discussions on how to find and tell stories in Los Angeles-a 63-year-old man with as much energy and curiosity as any of the youngsters in class. A lot of Valencia's classmates apparently knew he couldn't afford that semester's tuition but was still doing the homework. "Here he is, willingly taking a class for the delight of it and benefit of learning,"says Jessica Espinosa, a 25-year-old junior. Afterward, I overheard Valencia wanted to stay in school until he earned a master's degree, but it had taken him 12 years to finish community college., so he had a long way to go. There is something splendidly unreasonable about Valencia's determination to get a four-year degree and then a master's. At his current pace, he'll be 90 when he finally hangs all that paper on the wall. But that doesn't seem especially relevant. He's found all the youthful energy and academic opportunity stimulating. Valencia's grade in my class this semester will not show up on his transcripts(成绩单). But I'm giving him an A-and in the most important ways, it counts.(1) What made Valencia different from his classmates?A. He was respectful to the teacher.B. He activated the class atmosphere.C. He was eager to learn despite his age.D. He often put forward different opinions.(2) According to the author, why did Valencia continue to attend classes?A. He treasured the chance of learning.B. He wished to show his determination.C. He needed the credits to further his study.D. He desired to have an A on his transcripts.(3) Which of the following best describes Valencia?A. Modest and independent.B. Energetic and generous.C. Enthusiastic and motivated.D. Considerate and intelligent.(4) What can we learn from the passage?A. No pains, no gains.B. It is never too old to learn.C. Strike the iron while it is hot.D. Where there is life, there is hope.5、 C A heavy feeling on the chest. A throat that's leaden. An overwhelming feeling of isolation. Loneliness hurts-and, over time, it can put the body into a state that increases our risk of everything from heart attack and stroke to diabetes and cancer. So, evolutionarily speaking, why do we experience it? Stephanie Cacioppo, a neuroscientist at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, says that countless studies have helped researchers formulate a holistic(全面的)purpose for loneliness. "Our social structures evolved hand in hand with neural, hormonal and genetic mechanisms to support these social structures-like couples, tribes and communities-that help us survive and reproduce, " says Cacioppo. Because while loneliness may be painful to experience today, for our prehistoric ancestors that pain would have been a far better alternative to being caught alone with a predator on theprowl(潜行). Being social had its downsides even back then-competition for food, for example, or contribution to the spread of pathogens(病原). But scientists think we evolved to feel loneliness because it was more important to work with one another to accomplish tasks and to protect everyone. "The pain of loneliness prompted us to renew the social structure so we could survive and promote key features like trust. cooperation and collective action, explains Cacioppo. For years, researchers thought of loneliness as a disease. But now, they're realizing that it's more of a biological hunger signal that reminds us when it's time to reconnect with those around us to promote our short-term survival. If the outcomes of loneliness were entirely negative, it would no longer be a part of our DNA. Hunger and thirst protect our physical body while loneliness protects our social body." says Сacioppo. Loneliness impacts us all differently. Some of us may find certain situations lonely even while others don't. There's also a genetic component: Some of us are born to feel lonelier than others. Other factors play a role, too. The way we were treated as children can also inform how lonely we feel as adults. Lonely people spend most of their time deep within their own imaginations; they may conceptualize social encounters so much, in fact, that this part of their brain is in overdrive. That means even though they may be desperate to form connections, when they're around other people, they're actually less likely to be present.(1) As for loneliness, which would the author agree with?A. It can lead to serious mental problems in adulthood.B. It holds potential risks and disadvantages to individuals.C. It may reflect a person's strong desire to have social bonds.D. It is perceived in the same way as it is demonstrated by our DNA.(2) Scientists believe that loneliness is ___.A. beneficial but riskyB. painful but necessaryC. natural and powerfulD. personal and harmful(3) Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Humans evolved to be lonely.B. Loneliness is a curable disease.C. Loneliness is a personal feeling.D. Humans need to address loneliness.6、 D A video circulated on social media earlier this year, showing a tourist opening the door of a vehicle, reaching out an arm and attempting to stroke a passing lioness. The lioness shrugged him off, but it could have easily gone horribly wrong. Reckless behaviour around wildlife risks the safety of both people and animals. People risk being attacked, mauled (撕咬) and possibly killed, while animals can be harmed, removed or put down. irrespective of whether they were only defending themselves. Animal attacks can also cast a destination in a negative light, causing temporary closures or scaring off visitors. All just so someone could boast that they had stroked a lion or captured a moment on a camera phone. "Tourists are getting more and more reckless around wildlife and the source of the problem is social media." says wildlife photographer Anette Mosshachers. "People risking their lives or doing stupid things with wildlife are after "likes' and followers something to show off on social media, " says Mossbacher. "The greater the risk, the more "likes" they get. With some clients, it seems like a sickness or addiction." Yet social media is not entirely to blame. People have always taken risks for an experience. Foolish behavior and a tendency to get cockyaround dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity. A hunger for attention online might drive some of the current madness, but some individuals might be trying to recreate a piece of the action they have seen on television. Perhaps the adrenaline (肾上腺激素) rush when close to wild animals causes an evaporation of common sense. "There's a worrying lack of awareness that animals several times our size, weight, speed and strength can easily hurt us, "says wildlife photographer David Lloyd. "I don't think parks are doing enough to raise awareness. Tourists need to know how their presence can affect wildlife. A good example is cheetahs (猎豹) on vehicle rooftops. It may be a thrill for the bystanders, but theconsequences if a mother cheetah falls off would be severe. She would no longer be able to hunt, so her cubs could easily starve." "People aren't getting the education about why they need to stay away from wildlife, including avoiding diseases, keeping people secure and letting wildlife be wild, " says Philip Muruthi, vice president of species conservation and science for the African Wildlife Foundation. "We need to educate tourists through signs, pamphlets and frontline drivers. We should stick to guidelines, and there needs to be enforcement through the law."(1) What can we learn about reckless behaviour around wildlife?A. It harms tourists more than animals.B. It enables tourists to get intimate with animals.C. It may bring more profits to a tourist destination.D. It may get animals killed for defending themselves.(2) As for Mossbacher's opinion on what drives people's reckless behavior, the author is ___.A. sympatheticB. disapprovingC. doubtfulD. indifferent(3) What does the underlined word"cocky" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Selfish.B. Frightened.C. Arrogant.D. Shocked.(4) What can we conclude from the passage?A. Parks are expected to take more responsibilities for educating tourists.B. Raising tourists' awareness means stressing the danger of animals to them.C. More regulation of the tourist industry is the key to raising tourists' awareness.D. Penalties rather than education can stop people taking silly risks around wildlife.四、七选五7、 How does it feel when you solve your problem by yourself? Things may not always go as planned. 1 Being resourceful means finding smart and creative ways to solve a problem, using whatever resources you have at the time. 2 They can also be anything else that's useful, such as information, advice or your own experience. It also means trusting your instincts, the ability you're born with, rather than through training and being confident about your ability to face challenges. A resourceful person is not the one getting cross or panicking when something goes wrong. They're thinking about how to solve the problem.3 When we learn to solve problems for ourselves rather than immediately going to others for help, it can help to build our confidence, help us feel more independent, and feel better about making decisions. Being resourceful may not help you avoid problems, but thinking creatively about how you can deal with them will make you feel less stressed and more prepared next time.4 This can boost self-esteem, that is, how you feel about yourself. When you're facing a challenge, try to focus on the actual problem rather than how you feel about it. Think about where and when it happened and what the causes are. Next, think up as many solutions to the problem as you can. 5 Finally, review what has and hasn't worked, so you're equipped to deal with a situation next time. And remember, no one is expected to solve all problems by themselves. If you have a tricky problem that you're unable to solve, then ask a trusted adult for help.(1)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E. These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.(2)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E. These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.(3)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C. They can be practical things like pens and paper.D. Resourcefulness is a skill that's good for you in lots of ways.E. These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.(4)A. You also learn what you're good at.B. Here is how you can be more resourceful.C.

These may be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.F. Weigh up what's good and bad about each one and choose the best.G. But being resourceful can help you stay calm and deal with tricky situations.五、书面表达8、 For years, psychologists have known how to measure the intelligence of individuals, but only recently have they begun to investigate the issue of group intelligence. This notion stems from the observation that some groups seem to work fantastically across tasks, even tasks that are not very similar. Early investigations suggest that group intelligence is not the sum of the intelligence of the individuals in it. Sc what is the secret to their success? Researchers at Google have tackled this question. They collected thousands of data points on hundreds of groups and combed through them trying to find patterns. Are the members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do groups whose members have similar personalities or backgrounds work together best? They put forward many theories but found no patters to support them. In fact, who was in the group apparently did not seem to make a difference; instead, the difference between more and less effective groups seemed to lie in the interaction among the members. In effective groups, members spoke for a roughly equal amount of time-not at every meeting or interaction, but across the course of a project. Additionally, in effective groups, members face one another directly when they speak, using energetic and enthusiastic gestures. Moreover, side conversations between individual members during meetings, far from being a distraction, actually increased the group's productivity. The positive behaviors uncovered in the study occur exclusively in face-to-face interaction. One might argue that most of these findings are extremely obvious, and needless to say, good managers have probably always understood the principles. However, understanding group intelligence can help business and other organizations make the fundamental changes necessary to improve group performance. The reason is that our social and professional lives are not always structured in ways that facilitate the kind of interaction that apparently underlines effective group performance.(1) What is the finding of previous studies on group intelligence?(2) Why is it important for people to understand group intelligence?(3) Decide which part of the following statement is wrong. Underline it and explain why.Although side conversations distract members during meetings, they can help to boost the group's efficiency.(4) Apart from what is mentioned in the passage, what other way (s) can we use to improve group intelligence?

She’d been paralyzed (瘫痪) from the waist down after a serious accident while parachuting (跳伞) in 2003. The doctors, though, never said anything about floating. In 2021, she got to do just that.Mazyck was one of 12 participants in a Zero Gravity flight, organized by the group AstroAccess. This type of flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all the way to space. Flying over the Pacific Ocean off Southern California, the modified 747 jet airplane made 15 steep dives and climbs, allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness. The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful. “The flight was something that I would never have experienced in my wildest dreams,” she says, “especially the floating, the weightlessness.”During the flight, she says, the participants were expected to do experiments and made observations. They took note of things that people without certain disabilities might not realize are issues. For example, people who couldn’t grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves still while weightless. The group also experimented with signaling lights for the deaf and with ways of using braille (盲文) for the blind.Traditionally, strict physical requirements have prevented disabled people from becoming astronauts. AstroAccess is working to make space accessible to all. “Space removes the barriers between people; now is the time to remove the barriers to space itself,” says Mazyck, “It is sending a message to people who have historically been excluded from space travel that not only is there room for you in space, but there is a need for you.”Indeed, now is the time to make space accessible—before space tourism or space settlements become commonplace. “I am so excited about what’s happening here,” Mazyck adds. “We are paving the way for the future.”4.What do we know about AstroAccess?A.It redesigns jet airplanes.B.It offers weightlessness experience.C.It provides physical treatment.D.It hires the disabled to be astronauts. 5.What is required in the flights for the participants?A.Steep dives and climbs.B.Floating experience.C.Weightlessness periods.D.Trials and observations.6.Which of the following words can best describe Mazyck?A.Courageous and optimistic.B.Caring and persistent.C.Generous and determined.D.Ambitious and innovative.7.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Paving the Way for the Future B.Disabled Americans Make It to SpaceC.Making Space a Place for Everyone D.US Veterans Experience Zero Gavity FlightWhen instant cake mixes first appeared in the 1950s, American housewives were doubtful. These mixes, promising easy cake-baking, felt too easy. The manufacturers discovered that requiring the addition of an egg in the baking process was just enough to make the housewives happy with their work. The greater sense of effort gained from a little extra labor is believed to have been essential to the later success of the cake mix.This reflects the IKEA effect (宜家效应), which is identified by psychologist Michael I. Norton and his colleagues, suggesting we place greater value on things we have worked to create. They conducted four studies in which they asked participants to fold paper cranes and frogs, assemble IKEA boxes, and build sets of Legos. They then asked the builders to bid (出价) for their creations, and compared the prices with bids from people who hadn’t built them. The builders consistently outbid the non-builders.Interestingly, the IKEA effect works even when people have no opportunity to fully personalize their creations. While most participants’ folding skills left much to be desired, they loved their imperfectly personalized products all the more. Builders valued their wrinkled crane-like creations nearly five times as much as non-builders. Beauty, it seems, is in the eye of the builder.Today, as cities are suffering from severe housing crises, the IKEA effect can give us insight into the well-being benefits of a self-building approach to housing development. Projectslike WikiHouse and the “half-a-house” approach pioneered by Alejandro Aravena’s architecture company Elemental are working to make housing more affordable and sustainable by making it easier for people to build and personalize their own homes.“The moment people are involved with their built environment, they have a totally different relationship to it,” WikiHouse co-founder Alastair Parvin explained. “When the roof starts leaking or a door starts creaking, they have the power to fix it themselves.”8.What brought customers the joy of cake-baking according to paragraph 1?A.A better taste.B.An easy approach.C.A detailed recipe.D.An additional effort.9.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 imply?A.Creations are based on skills.B.Extra labor increases perceived value.C.Beauty is found through contrast.D.Strict management brings good quality. 10.What is Alastair Parvin’s attitude towards public involvement in housing?A.Critical.B.Objective.C.Doubtful.D.Supportive. 11.What’s the purpose of this text?A.To promote a brand.B.To make a proposal.C.To explain a concept.D.To introduce a study.For years, experts in climate science and ecology have presented the agricultural practices of the ancient Maya as primary examples of what not to do. “There’s an explanation that describes the Maya as people who devoted themselves to unchecked (不加约束的) agricultural development,” said Andrew Scherer, a professor at Brown University, “The explanation goes: The population grew too large, the agriculture expanded, and then everything fell apart.”But a new study, led by Scherer, suggests that that explanation doesn’t tell the full story.Using a remote sensing technology, the team surveyed an area in the western Maya lowlands. The results revealed extensive systems of complex irrigation (灌溉) and terracing (阶梯状坡地), but no huge population increases to match. The findings indicated that between 350 and 900 AD, some Maya kingdoms were living comfortably, with no proven food insecurity.When the team set about the survey, their primary motivation was to learn more about the infrastructure (基础设施) of regions that are unknown, owing to the thick forest that has longhidden ancient communities from view. Therefore, the team chose to survey three Maya sites: Piedras Negras, La Mar and SakTz’i’.The survey revealed signs of what the researchers call “agricultural intensification”—the adjustment of land to increase the volume of crop productivity. Agricultural intensification methods in these Maya kingdoms included building terraces and creating water management systems, suggesting that these kingdoms were not only prepared for population growth but also likely harvested much more food than they could consume every year.Scherer said he hopes the study provides researchers with a different view of the ancient Maya. And perhaps it even offers inspiration to the modern-day agricultural field where people are looking for sustainable ways to grow food for an ever-growing global population.12.What does the author intend to show in the first paragraph?A.Agricultural achievements of the ancient Maya.B.A long-standing theory about the downfall of Maya.C.Ecological impacts of Mayan agricultural practices.D.A conflict between city expansion and population growth.13.What did the researchers discover through their study?A.The rapid development of big towns.B.The struggles of some Maya kingdoms.C.The sufficient supply of food in the society.D.The population explosion between 350 and 900 AD.14.What can be inferred about the three study subjects?A.They have been rarely researched before.B.They had relatively advanced city planning.C.They had well-known ancient communities.D.They were once abandoned by their citizens.15.What conclusion about the ancient Maya will the team draw?A.They dealt well with natural risks.B.They faced severe water shortages.C.They actually practiced sustainable farming.D.They struggled to control population growth.Global warming is not only bringing rising sea levels and extreme weather events but also causing a growing wave of climate anxiety around the world. An international study found nearly six in ten people were very worried about climate change, while the young appeared to be particularly badly influenced. 16 Here are some effective ways to help deal with your feelings.17 Not all information on the Internet is true, and you could be receiving misinformation. Even if you stick to trusted sources, too much information may only worsen your feelings. Try to set a time limit for checking climate related content to avoid making your anxiety worse.It is important to be aware of your own limitations. You alone can’t stop or undo climate change, so you needn’t place the responsibility on yourself. 18 Joining a group of like-minded people to make a difference is a good way to get started and help you feel better.Talk therapy (谈话疗法) provides you with a chance to discuss your anxiety about climate issues. A good therapist will address your negative emotions and thoughts about the environment in your conversations. 19Positive changes have taken place at personal, community, and worldwide levels. And there is no reason to believe that they won’t continue, especially with your help. You can discover means to influence others with your own positive attitude. 20 Take on whatever role you feel comfortable with and remember to focus on your mental health on whatever path you choose. A.However, you can always find ways to contribute positively.B.Staying in natural green spaces has been shown to reduce stress.C.For example, organize related activities to educate people around you.D.Reduce your time spent online, especially on sources that are not trustworthy.E.The UN has made a list of blogs and other news resources about climate issues.F.Such a professional will recognize your feelings and work with you to manage them.G.So consider taking care of your mental well-being if you are struggling with the issue.二、完形填空In a remote village lived an elderly woman named Amelia.

Immediately after thetrailhead, the trail (小径) became very rocky and steep. But having read about the hike, I knew within five minutes, I was supposed to reach the hike’s first overlook.However, the overlook never arrived. Instead, I found myself lost in the woods. Pulling out my cellphone, I saw it read “no service”.I checked the last text message I’d sent to my mom. It read, “Conference ended… going for a small hike before my flight homethis afternoon." I put my phone away and kept moving and yelling, “Help! Is anybody out there" Every so often, I’d stop to listen, but I never heard a reply.I got out my phone again. The battery was running out fast as it searched for a signal. I struggled to find a place where I could get service. When I did, I called my mom. It went through! In a shaky voice, I said, "Mom" And then the call dropped. More than 1,500 miles away, my mom instantly knew something was wrong. She called the Denver Police Department and was directed to the US Forest Service.This was how I was introduced to John, an operator from the US Forest Service. Following John’s instruction on the phone, I finally escaped from the woods. I breathed a sigh of relief. Then my phone rang, and it was John, making sure I was still going in the right direction. “By the way,” he said, “we’ve had your mother on h old this whole time. So once you get down the mountain, you will absolutely want to give her a call.”24. What did the author do while finding the trail rocky and steepA, He yelled for help.B. He continued walking.C.

The author’s mom was on line waiting.C. John lost touch with the author’s mom.D. The author went in the wrong direction.CMany young people these days adore the advertised magazine body and become too focused on attaining this image instead of worrying more about what lasts and even grows over time. But could you imagine being considered beautiful for years, and suddenly being ugly after moving to another continent It is a sad reality that people don’t realize how vacillating the idea of beauty can be from one country to another.Think of the most typical American girl you know. Is she blonde-haired with white skin and light blue eyes, and does she love shopping or sports Now place this girl in the heart of Africa, where beauty is placed on what you can control. The Maasai tribe in Kenya focuses on how clean people are, and how stylish their piercings (穿孔) are. This tribe’s culture is to be a brave fighter, so they will cut their skin with patterns in it to show that they are strong. If you don’t look f ierce, you are not beautiful.Other countries like North Korea and South Korea have their own unique views on beauty. In an interview, a woman who has lived in both North Korea and South Korea claims that beauty in North Koreais based more on your ability to be a good woman and wife. She says that women in North Korea are less concerned about fashion and beauty in the physical sense. She says they did have a time when big eyes were a big deal and everyone wanted to get double eyelid surgery. This is something extreme and could perhaps be influenced by Western culture. But don’t you think the idea of getting surgery done to look more attractive is crazy28. What does the underlined word “vacillating” in Paragraph 1 probably meanA. Inconsistent.B. Reasonable.C. Unusual.D. Similar.29. The Maasai tribe in Kenya is mentioned to show that in their eyes __________.A. getting dirty is stylishB. looking fierce is beautifulC. strong people cut their skinD. American girls love shopping30. According to the woman interviewed, women in North Korea now__________.A. care a lot about their appearanceB. put the beauty of eyes in the first placeC. pay great attention to their abilityD. are crazy about double eyelid surgery31. What does the text mainly tell usA. Inner beauty is of great importance.B. Ideas of beauty vary among culture groups.C. Different ways are needed to admire true beauty.D. Fashion magazines easily influence young people.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。
