Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. The animals, to some extent, become tools to us.B. Although violence against zoo animals is often reported, the issue of animalwelfare has aroused little attention recently.C. By taking a selfie, you show that you're part of that experience.D. The comparison between caged animals and wild ones are appealing to people.E. Similar incidents are a regular occurrence in natural settings.F. The common factor is that some people are not respecting animal.of a Jaguar (美洲虎) enclosure at Wildlife World Zoo, Arizona. The jaguar ripped into her arm. Bystanders pulled her away before the animal could injure her further. She's fine-so is the jaguar.This isn't the first time a story of a person acting rudely to get close to a wild animal made headlines. Last year, a man jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo for a close-up photo. Multiple tourists in Yellowstone National Park have been attacked by bison (野牛) whenthey've gotten too close for a photo.It's common sense not to get close to wild animals that can hurt you. It's why zoos have barriers -sometimes multiple walls-to keep people separated from animals. Signs posted everywhere state the obvious warning. Keep your hands off the cage."Yet animals have become less real to us," says an environmentalist. We see exotic animals most frequently in managed settings like zoos. People are trying to take advantage of their rarity to show off on social media and ignore their fierceness.Media often normalize interaction with dangerous animals. Seeing a man like "Lion Whisperer" Kevin Richardson regularly play-fight with lions on TV, may send the message that these animals aren't so dangerous after all.Social media are also perfectly positioned to contribute to the rise of animal selfies.Getting likes and comments provide instant satisfaction. Your self-esteem actually gets a temporary boost. To hold onto that feeling, people may go to more and more extremes to showcase the most exciting versions of themselves. It may not be enough to get a photo of a beautiful, dangerous animal from outside a cage.People's careless approach can put the animal's safety at risk as well. Zoo animals often must be killed to protect the person who's entered their space. In fact, thrill-seekers actively endanger the lives of animals. with the zoo environment, they take it for granted that animals are there for people, ignoring the fact that animals and humans are both equal existents in the nature.二、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个恰当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

D．A story book.（二）During the COP27 climate conference (会议) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, an important deal on “loss and damage” was reached. This was a big step forward because at COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, there were no talks on loss and damage at all. The plan is that richer countries will pay money into a special fund that will be used to help poor countries.Loss and damage means the damaging impact of climate change on developing countries. For nearly 30 years, poorer countries have been asking richer countries formoney to help to protect communities from the effects of climate change. Richer countries have produced the most greenhouse gases, but poorer countries are often the worst affected by extreme weather conditions because they are less well equipped to face extreme climate events.Brazil’s newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made a speech about preserving the largest rainforest on Earth, the Amazon. During the last 50 years, more than 17% of the Amazon rainforest has been destroyed to make way for farms and towns. However, in his speech, Lula promised that there would be zero deforestation (伐树) in the Amazon by 2030. The conference didn’t just focus on world leaders. It brought together more than 45,000 people to discuss how climate change is affecting their lives. Climate refugees (难民) also had their voices heard. Tshilombo from the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya said, “Refugees don’t only flee becaus e of war or conflict. It’s also about drought, the effects of climate change.”Some countries weren’t happy with the overall outcome of COP27 because decisions weren’t made on cutting the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, gas and oil, etc. The UK Governme nt’s Alok Sharma said, “I’m incredibly disappointed.”However, this deal was a great achievement for developing countries. Sherry Rehman, the climate minister for Pakistan, said, “I am confident we have tuned a comer in how we work together to achieve clim ate goals.”；4.

What has made it difficult for developing countries to fight against climate change? A．More greenhouse gases.B．Massive deforestation.C．Shortage of money and supplies.D．Terrible weather conditions.；6.

What would Sherry Rehman probably agree with?A．Never put off till tomorrow.B．Many hands make light work.C．Knowledge starts with practice.D．No way is impossible to courage.（三）What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph me an? A．Relaxed. B．Started. C．Appeared suddenly. D．Stopped. 9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?A．People became more inventive.B．People worked fewer hours per day.C．People worked fewer hours overall.D．People found employment in leisure industries.10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that A．he could produce more cars.B．they could spend money on cars.C．he didn’t have to pay them to drive.D．they would enjoy working with him.11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now? A．Because we start work later than we used toB．Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.C．Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time. D．Because people are out control of their working week.二、七选五阅读Mondays are kind of annoying. 12 A recent survey says that most people get the pre-work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women’s health expert Marsha Hudnall. 13Do some meal preparations.Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressf ul. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 14 Or finally attempt a di fferent diet you’ve been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you’ll have a week’s worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,” says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. 15 Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing－a practice known as shinrin-yoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hik e in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.16Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday? Studies show that what you wear can have a significant effect on your mood. So make Monday the day you wear your favorite clothes or show the latest addition to your wardrobe (衣橱). It’s also a good idea to get some nice coffee or music ready, which will give you something to look forward to on your Monday commute.A．Give yourself something to look forward on Monday.B．Even Sunday afternoons turn sour as we think of the workweek ahead.C．Then all you have to do is heat and plate when you come home from work. D．Therefore, starting a Sunday stress-relieving habit can begin a week feeling strong and focused.E．Try creating a relaxing and winding down Sunday night so that you can recharge and get ready for Monday.F．Taking on just a few of these simple tips every Sunday will help you launch a productive, less stressful week.G．Wailing until the last moment to do weekend chores like paying bills or doing laundry can leave you anxious and stressed on Sunday.三、完型填空The stage lights dimmed (变昏暗), and I took a quick look from behind the heavy black curtains into the audience.

The fossil which was encased in a tomb of rock dates back to over 43 million years ago!This ancient creature had four functional legs, so it could dwell on both land and in water. Ironically, Egypt’s Fayum Depression, the desert where the fossil was discovered, was an ocean millions of years ago.Researchers believe this fossil is an example from an era when land animals were adapting to marine life. Modern whales evolved from deer-like land mammals (哺乳动物) over the course of millions of years, and this unique whale could travel across land and swim in the ocean.The new species is named Phiomicetus Anubis because the whale’s skull (颅骨) resembles the Egyptian jackal-headed god of death, Anubis. Scientists have also been able to recover the whale’s partial skeleton (骨骼). They inferred that the ancient whale was about three meters in length and weighed 1,300 pounds. The mammal had a long mouthful of teeth, which indicated that it fed on smaller mammals and other sea life.After analyzing the remains at Mansoura University in the Nile River Delta, scientists supposed that P. Anubis is the oldest semi-aquatic whale species found in Africa. Although the fossil itself was discovered thirteen years ago, researchers just completed the analysis and made the exciting announcement of a new species. Other whale fossils with legs have been found before, but the P. Anubis is the earliest, of its kind found in Africa.；4. Where did the researchers find the fossil?A．In the India Ocean.B．On the Rock Islands.C．In the Fayum Depression.D．In the Nile River Delta.；5. What helped scientists figure out Phiomicetus Anubis’s diet?A．Its weight.B．Its length.C．Its teeth.D．Its legs.；6. What can we infer from the text?A．The study of Phiomicetus Anubis is time-consuming.B．The analysis of Phiomicetus Anubis has a long way to go. C．Phiomicetus Anubis is the oldest mammal found in Africa. D．Phiomicetus Anubis is the world’s largest semi-aquatic whale species.；7. Which is the best title of this text?A．A whale that could travel across landB．A new species that was named by AnubisC．An announcement that made the world excitedD．A modern creature that evolved from deer-like land mammalsCMarie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian—Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read. I thought about it for a few seconds and replied,“Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection. I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Every week I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carré. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carré to me.All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work-out out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.；8. What made the author interested in mysteries?A．The book her grandfather gave her.B．The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.C．The professional service of Lantelme.D．The opinion her grandfather gave to her.；9. What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3?A．She was interested in Agatha’s works.B．She took exercise around the library.C．She bought a book from Lantelme.D．She went to Lantelme’s home.；10. Who wrote The Spy Who Came in from the Cold?A．Marie Lantelme.B．Ruth Holberg.C．Agatha Christie.D．John le Carré.；11. Which is the best title for the text?A．An Impressive BookB．Lifelong Joy from My GrandfatherC．A Happy Memory for the BooksD．Three Books the Author Wanted to Read二、七选五阅读With the development of the tourist industry, traveling has become a fashionable way for people to spend their holiday.

In our work consulting with companies andcoaching leaders, we have found that if you’re looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve-and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually.The first step is to get a sense of how your self-perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you). This is especially true for the development of EI because we can be blind to how we express and read the emotional components of our interactions. For example, most of us think that we’re good listeners, but very often that’s really not the case. With out this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance. Getting feedback from others can also provide proof of the necessity of shifting our behavior and motivation to do so.To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self-perception and reputation, you should use a 360-degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple aspects of EI. The key is to find one to give you feedback, which is focused on development and not on performance assessment. And that can give you a detailed understanding of how other people’s assessments of you differ from your own assessments.Secondly, when you get your feedback from an assessment, let that inform what you want to improve. But also consider what your goals are. When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence, you’re at a huge disadvantage if you’re only interested because others say you should be. Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically (内在的) motivated to make the effort matters more when changing longstanding habits than it does when simply learning a skill.That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at the intersection o f the feedback you’ve gotten and the areas that are most important to your own aspirations. Understanding the influences of your current EI habits relative to your goals will keep you going over a long period of time as you do the work of strengthening your emotional intelligence.；4. What do we know from the first paragraph?A．Professionals fail to understand the concepts of EI.B．EI plays a key role in professional development.C．Leaders are badly in need of improving their EI.D．You know how to improve E I better with others’ help.；5. According to the passage, which of the following is an “external reality check”? A．You got help from your parents when making a key decision.B．Your teacher directed you towards a better attitude in study.C．You reflected yourself and made a New Year Resolution.D．Your career development speeds up with the guidance of others.；6. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A．It’s most reliable to follow your inner call when you want to improve your EI. B．It’s hard for others to kn ow your EI because it hides deeply behind your inner sense.C．When you want to improve EI, you should take your goals into consideration. D．Acquiring a new skill is more significant than your attempt to improve your EI.；7. Which of the following might the author agree with?A．Effective EI development is determined by different factors.B．EI development is unlikely to happen unless you know what EI really is.C．The importance of performance assessment is underestimated.D．Your inner self discourages you from improving your EI.CThere is increasing alarm about the extent of microplastic pollution, which has been found everywhere from Everest to the Arctic. However, it turns out there’s an even smaller and more toxic form of plastic pollution entering remote reaches of the globe. A new study published in Environmental Research found significant quantities of nanoplastics in ice samples from both the North and South Poles.“Now we know that nanoplastics are transported to these comers of the Earth in these quantities. This indicates that nanoplastics are really a bigger pollution problem than we thought,” study lead author Dusan Materic said in a press release.Nanoplastics are plastics that are smaller than a micrometer in size. Their small size means they are more difficult to study than microplastics, or plastics between five millimeters and a micrometer. But they may be even more dangerous.“Nanoplastics are very toxicologically active compared to, for instance, microplastics, and that’s why this is very important,” Materic said.Materic and his team used new methods to measure nanoplastic pollution in ice samples from Greenland and Antarctica. They sampled a 14-meter-deep ice core from the Greenland ice cap and sea ice from Antarctica’s McMurdo Sound. T hey found that there were an average of 13. 2 nanograms per milliliter of nanoplastics in the Greenland ice and an average of 52. 3 nanograms per milliliter in the Antarctic ice.But what was even more surprising than the amount of nanoplastics in the rem ote ice was just how long they had sat there. “In the Greenland core, we see nanoplastic pollution happening all the way from the 1960s. So organisms, despite the lack of the solid evidence, likely all over the world, have been exposed to it for quite some time now,” Materic said.The study also looked at the types of plastic present in the samples. Half of the Greenland nanoplastics were polyethylene (PE), the kind of plastic used for plastic bags and packaging. A quarter came from tires and a fifth were polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is used for clothing and bottles.；8. Why should researchers focus more on nanoplastics?A．They are more important to science.B．They are smaller but more dangerous.C．They are easily polluted by ocean water.D．They are more active in cold surroundings.；9. What can we learn about nanoplastics?A．The North and South poles are the birthplace of nanoplastics.B．Nanoplastics have less influence on the planet than microplastics.C．Nanoplastics found in the samples are widely used in the daily life. D．Nanoplastics have been existing since the 1960s throughout the world.；10. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 6?A．The Greenland core.B．The Antarctic ice.C．The amount of nanoplastics.D．Nanoplastics pollution.；11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Microplastics-proving more dangerous.B．Nanoplastics-making its way to the poles.C．Nanoplastics-posing a threat to people’s life.D．Microplastics-setting the alarm bells ringing.二、完形填空One of my fellow volunteers, a girl from Tanzania, seemed a bit desperate, so I asked what the problem was. She told me she had a friend back home, who was, really 12 with her university studies. It was beginning to look like financial difficulties, which would make it 13 for her to complete her course.So this friend of mine had done something 14 : she had sent all her pocket money for the month to Tanzania to 15 her friend! This meant that she didn’t have much food to eat, no money to go anywhere outside the village, no money to buy any clothes, and so on.I was so 16 that she did this for her friend and I felt I had to do something.

She immediately started to fill a bag with pasta, cookies, more muesli, sweets and other things until the bag was full. “Give her this for me. It’s my 21 !” I couldn’t believe it but cried with 22 .I left the shop to go home with my 23 bag of food. I asked the woman her name. “Just Gloria! God bless both of you!” she said.

Ida smashed into Louisiana as a Category 4 hurricane, ripping off roofs, knocking out transmission lines, flooding roads, and reducing some brick buildings in downtown New Orleans to rubble. At least eight people died in the storm and the toll is expected to rise as emergency workers search wrecked homes and businesses.One of the most powerful hurricanes to ever hit the U.S. mainland, Ida brought a 5 to 12-foot storm surge that covered low-lying communities in southeastern Louisiana. Grand Isle is now “uninhabitable,” said Parish President Cynthia Lee Sheng, with 3 feet of sand covering the entire barrier island and 40 percent of the buildings completely destroyed.The storm caused a citywide blackout in New Orleans, but a Hurricane Katrina-level disaster was avoided there, thanks in part to the $ 14.5 billion spent on new levees, seawalls, and pumps after the 2005 storm. Experts are warning that Ida could worsen the Covid crisis in the Gulf Coast, as residents crowd together in homes and emergency shelters without immediate access to testing or medical care. ICUs in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama hospitals were already near capacity be- fore the storm hit. Nearly 1 million people are still without power across Louisiana, and authorities waned it could be weeks before electricity is restored. “If you have already evacuated,” said Gov. John Bel Edwands, “do not return here.”；10. Which of the following best describes Hurricane Ida?A．Mild. B．Destructive. C．Uncontrollable. D．Impressive.；11. What does the underlined words “the toll” mean in Paragraph 1?A．The death number. B．The heat wave.C．The wind speed. D．The citywide blackout.；12.

D．Over half of its buildings were in ruins.；13. What can be inferred about the attitude of Gov. John Bel Edwards towards the prospect of Louisiana?A．Ambitious B．Undoubted. C．Indifferent. D．Unconfident.CPangolins (穿山甲) are the most trafficked (非法交易) mammals in the world and are facing extinction. To draw attention to these scaly (有鳞片的), anteater-like animals, a new wildlife documentary, Eye of the Pangolin, is attempting a u nique way to inspire action and conservation. Partnering with the non-profit organization Pangolin. Africa, the documentary was made available on YouTube in May 2019. The intention is to reach communities wherever the Internet is available, especiallyAfri can communities, who live near the animal’s habitats.Over two years, the documentary crew traveled to South Africa, Ghana, Central African Republic and Gabon in search of the four unique species of pangolin, which has never been achieved before. Filmmakers Bruce Young and Johan Vermeulen say that they went into the shoot knowing relatively little about pangolins, but grew to respect and appreciate the animals. Getting close to the creatures over two years was a crash course in these secretive creatures. Johan Vermeulen said, "One thing however that might seem unimportant is that they are actually quite fussy eaters. You would think they would eat any type of ant, but they all prefer a specific type ant."Pangolins are hunted illegally across Africa for their scales, which are used for traditional medicine, and their meat. In April 2019, Singaporean customs officials conducted two separate seizures of 24 tons of pangolin scales, which equals to the death of 69,000 pangolins.Though the documentary focuses less on the trafficking of pangolins, and more on the animals in their natural habitat, the aim of the documentary is to inspire viewers around the world to call for action to end trafficking and protecting these unique creatures.Filmed on location in South Africa, Ghana, Central African Republic, and Gabon, this powerful documentary is the story of two men on a mission to get all four species of African pangolin on camera for the very first time.14. What is the purpose of the documentary?A．To study the situation of pangolins.B．To collect fund to protect pangolins.C．To raise awareness of pangolin protection.D．To propose setting up pangolin reserves.15. What is the meaning of the underlined word “fussy” in paragraph 2?A．Picky. B．Messy.C．Showy. D．Heavy.16. What’s the documentary mainly about?A．The illegal trade of pangolins.B．The medical function of pangolin's scales.C．The life of pangolins in their natural habitats.D．The efforts of Pangolin, Africa to save pangolins.17. Where is the text most likely from?A．A brochure. B．A diary.C．A novel. D．A magazine.三、七选五阅读Ways to Boost Your Emotional Health by Improving Your Confidence Taking care of your emotional health is as important as taking care of your physical body. 18 When you feel good about yourself, it's much easier to cope with life's little ups and downs as well as bigger events.

You take a selfie (拍照) .But what about selfies in space? On Twitter last year, NASA astronaut Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, who famously became the second man to walk on the moon in July 1969, laid claim to a spaceflight first taking the first selfie in space during the Gemini XII mission in 1966.“For me, it needs to be digital to be selfie,” argues Jennifer Levasseur, who is in charge of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. According to Levasseur, the concept of a selfie is directly linked to Internet culture and human desire to interact on social platforms. “The thing that makes a selfie is sharing it,” she says.Still, astronauts have been carrying cameras abroad space vehicles since the 1960s ,and they've taken plenty of pictures of themselves along the way. Astronauts had to pull the film magazines out and leave their cameras behind when they returned to Earth because early space missions were restricted by a conservative weight limit on the return trip.A big change in space camera technology came after sad loss of the space shuttle Columbia who broke apart on its return to Earth in 2003. “Fearing that they would never be able to bring the film back from space and lose all that hard work celebrated the push for digital.” Levasseur says.Today astronauts can have access to the Internet and social platforms in space and post true based selfies taken by digital cameras. Taking selfies and sharing them on social media is a way that astronauts in space can participate in the same activities people on Earth do every day. The first astronaut selfie that went viral(网红的) on the internet was one by Japanese astronaut Akihiko Hoshide in 2012.4. What does Levasseur think of Aldrin's claim?A．It hardly makes any sense. B．It revolutionizes astronautics.C．It contradicts public opinions. D．It needs to be further proved.5. Why were cameras left in space on early space missions?A．To lighten the load of the spaceship.B．To test cameras under extreme conditions.C．To prepare for the next stage of spaceexploration.D．To take more pictures in space by remote control.6. What advanced space camera technology?A．The invention of new filmsB．The fear of falling behind in the space raceC．The concern about the loss of valuable dataD．The popularity of space selfies on socia media7. What is the best title for the text?A．The Exploration of Space.B．The History of Selfies in Space.C．The Change in Space Camera Technology.D．The Development in Space Technology.CIn its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, “No, thanks. I’ve got a good horse under me.”The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn’t enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city’s streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building?That’s where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building’s foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman’s signal, each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stayed open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn’t even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago’s early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago’s waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city’s next step was to clean the polluted river.8. The author mentions the joke to show .A．horses were fairly useful in ChicagoB．the Chicago people were particularly humorousC．Chicago was very dangerous in the springD．Chicago’s streets were extremely muddy9. The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to .A．lift the level of streets with pipes B．lower the Chicago River by drainsC．build pipes to fight against heavy floods D．get rid of the street dirt through pipes10. What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?A．It separated the building from its foundation.B．It interrupted the business of the hotel.C．It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D．It went on smoothly as intended.11. The passage is mainly about the early Chicago’s .A．popular life styles and their influencesB．environmental disasters and their causesC．engineering problems and their solutionsD．successful businessmen and their achievements二、七选五阅读Different Approaches to Reducing Food WasteFood plays a key role in people’s life. While many people in poor communities (社区) suffer from a shortage of food, a large amount of food is wasted in the rest of the world. 12 Here are some tips on how to reduce food waste.Learn to store food. Not sure how to keep those greens from wilting (蔫) overnight? Can’t keep your tomatoes fresh for more than a day or two? Do your research on food storage and you’ll get the rewards. Not sure where to start? 13Use it all. 14 For example, leave the skin on carrots and potatoes (The skins actually have a ton of valuable nutrients!), save the beet greens for a salad, and don’t throw away the outer skin of oranges!15 Many fruits and vegetables are thrown away because they aren’t “pretty” enough. Buying food that comes in a different shape, size or colour helps use up food that might be given up.Understand best-before dates correctly. People often confuse best-before dates with expiry dates (有效期). The best-before date has nothing to do with the safety of the food. 16 So while the taste may not be that good, many food items are still safe to eat for many days beyond the best-before date.A．It refers to flavour (味道) and nutritional value, which is of great help to your body.B．Therefore, food waste is a serious problem that needs our attention.C．Check out Local Produce Storage Guide online.D．Pick the “funny looking” food.E．You often remove a part of whatever food you’ re cooking with, but often those food items can be saved.F．Keep a “need to eat” list everyday in your daily life.G．This will save you time in the long run.三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

When a polygraph is skillfully used to 19 how we react bodily with what we are 20 , it is called a "lie detector". Bodily processes can also be measured 21 . This is what we do when we observe someone blushing (脸红). However, we are not always 22 of what bodily processes respond to.Measuring action 23 behavior is the other way researchers assess the emotions.24 , one measure of fear of snakes is how 25 a person will go to the snake. Another procedure is to have a person 26 how afraid he is, or how he feels, in this way, researchers have 27 the so-called "fear thermometer" to assess a person's fear. 28 our everydayliving, we do very much the same thing. Only not too 29 . We react to what a person does, what he says, 30 he says it, and how he looks. Is he smiling? Is his voice trembling? We put all this 31 together to infer what a person is feeling.32 , we do not always act as we feel. Sometimes we do things that we don't feel like doing. 33 we say we feel one way and then we act another. Actors, for example, successfully learn to "make believe" emotions, or learn to 34 them. Thus we 35 always tell what a person is feeling by what he says or by what he does.16. A. measure B. describe C. make D. use17. A. other B. others C. another D. the others18.

Others must travel as checked bags or in the cargo hold — a dark and sometimes dangerous place where temperatures can vary wildly.Binder and Wiesel used their consulting backgrounds and business savvy to start Pet Airways in 2005. The last four years have been spent designing their fleet of five planes according to new four-legged requirements, dealing with FAA regulations and setting up airport schedules.The two say they're overwhelmed with the response. Flights on Pet Airways are already booked up for the next two months.Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major cities — New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest US airlines.For owners the big difference is service. Dogs and cats will fly in the main cabin of a Suburban Air Freight plane, retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. Pets (about 50 on each flight) will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight. The pets are also given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks. And at each of the five airports it serves, the company has created a "Pet Lounge" for future fliers to wait and sniff before flights.A trip from New York to Los Angeles, for example, will take about 24 hours. On that route, pets will stop in Chicago, have a bathroom break, play time, dinner, and bunk for the night before finishing the trip the next day.Amanda Hickey of Portland, Ore. is one of the new airline's first customers. Herseven-year-old terrier-pinscher mix Mardi and 2-year-old puggle Penny are taking their first flight soon.Hickey said the service was a welcome alternative to flying her dogs in cargo when shetransplants them from her soon-to-be Denver home to Chicago to stay while she and her fiance travel to Aruba to get married."For a little bit more money, I have peace of mind," she said.36. Jack Russell is probably ________.A. a babyB. a little boyC. a petD. the couple’s child37. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. The first-ever all-pet airline hits skies.B. A better option to get their pets from one city to another.C. Flights on Pet Airways.D. Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel.38. Which of the following is the service that are designed for the pets on the flight?a. The pets are given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks.b. The attendants will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight.c. Attendants will send the pets to the plane.d. The pets can take a walk on the plane freely.e. At each of the five airports it serves, there is a "Pet Lounge" for future fliers to wait andsniff before flights.A. abcdB. abceC. bcdeD. abde39.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练【3月30日晚，限时：不超过65-70分钟】一、阅读理解（一）Located in the tropical forests in Xishuangbanna, southwest China’s Yunnan province, the Asian Elephant Breeding and Rescue Center (AEBRC) is dedicated to giving careful and effective protection to wild elephants.Though the jungles provide rich sources of food and water for the elephants, they can also pose a threat to them if they become ill or injured, making it difficult for them to survive in the wild.In August 2015, a baby elephant that was less than one month old was abandoned by her herd at the d oorway of a farmer’s house in Simiao, Pu’er city. Vets from the AEBRC came and took the animal to their center for treatment. She was found to have intra-abdominal infections and heart failure. She was also at risk of blood poisoning.The baby elephant finally recovered after proper treatment by the keepers at the center. However, without the presence of her mother, she became malnourished (营养不良) due to a lack of breast milk. At that time, she weighed only 76 kilograms, much smaller than an average newborn elephant. The vets decided to feed her goat milk, and as she was born in the Chinese Year of the Goat, the elephant was named Yang Niu (“Yang” is Chinese for goat, and Niu means girl). The elephant is now about 6 years old, 1.8 meters tall and weighs 1.3 tonnes.Currently, there are 11 rescued Asian elephants living at the center and being cared for by 27 keepers, who spend more than 10 hours with them each day. Thanks to these efforts, the population of Asian wild elephants in the province has reached 300 from 150 over the past 30 years.The local government has designated (指派) a place as a source of food for the elephants so that they do less damage to villagers’ crops while looking for food. They’ve also monitored the elephants using technologies such as drones to keep track of their activities and prevent encounters between villagers and the elephants. The local government has also purchased commercial insurance for residents to compensate them if the elephants attack them.；1. What can be a threat to elephants’ survival according to the text?A．Lack of food sources. B．Illegal hunting.C．Physical problems. D．Destruction of forests.；2. What does the example of a baby elephant stress?A．The recovery of Yang Niu.B．The efforts made by keepers.C．The risks facing baby elephants.D．The importance of mother elephants.；3. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 5?A．The number of elephants endangered.B．The urgency of rescuing wild elephants.C．A steady growth of elephant population.D．A rising trend of animal overprotection.；4. Why has the government designated a place for elephants?A．To keep track of their activities.B．To prevent them from damaging crops.C．To save them the trouble of looking for food.D．To ensure the growth of the elephant population.（二）No one can resist the temptation (诱惑) of snacks. But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains. What would happen if you had a bag of crisps (炸薯片) a day? Eating an extra packet of crisps a day could lead to a weight gain of 6. 35 kg after a year, The Times reported.People underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year. A survey of around 2 ,000 adults found that about three quarters underestimated the impact of what a small reduction could have. One in ten believed that cutting 200 calories a day would not affect weight. At the same time, many people didn’t seem to know exactly how many calories were in their snacks. When it came to snacks, people struggled, with 95 percent guessing that half a sharing bag of tortilla chips had 214 calories on average, almost half the true figure of 447.Can’t we resist buying snacks? The food environment is to blame. Even though we all know snacking is bad for our health, we can’t help but fill our shopping carts with snacks.Don’t always blame yourself for poor self- control, and supermarket shelves also have to carry this “pot” half.Hugo Harper, head of Nesta’s health team, said the pressure to resist high-calorie snacks should not be put on consumers and that our food environment needed. to be changed, He said,“Our environment has a real impact on what we eat, from advertisements and supermarket promotions to what ‘s available in our local corner shops.Hugo added,“If we had fewer cues to snacks, or were pushed to buy fewer high calorie snacks, we should be able to see real change.”New rules coming into force next month will restrict promotions on foods high in fat, sugar and salt in big shops.；5. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?A．List some reasons. B．Introduce the topic.C．Put up an argument. D．Raise a question.；6. What can we know from the survey?A．One in ten people cut 200 calories a day.B．Many people knew how many snacks they ate.C．No one knew the calories the snacks contained.D．Most people lacked the awareness of snacks’ impact.；7. What may cause people to buy more snacks according to the text?A．The food environment. B．Living conditions. C．Consumption ability. D．Supermarket management.；8. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A．A packet of crisps contains many caloriesB．People can resist the temptation of snacksC．The harm of snacks is beyond your imaginationD．2,000 adults got involved in a consumption survey二、七选五阅读Have you had a talk with someone, and think you are paying attention to him or her, only to realize shortly afterwards that you can’t remember what he said? Oh, perhaps you fail to focus while he is speaking and miss the message that he is trying to deliver. 9 : TVs, radios, traffic noises, telephones, laptops and so on which can make it difficult to listen with our full attention.But how can we listen more effectively? 10 . Professor Jon Kabat-Zinn said, “It’s time for mindful listening to come in. Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally.”11 ? Jon Kabat-Zinn describes three key elements of mindful listening that we can use to improve our listening skills.First of all, be present. When we listen mindfully, our focus should be on the person we are listening to without distractions. 12 . By doing so, we can understand a situation from someone else’s point of view. After all, we often see the world through our own experiences. Finally, listen to our own cues. Our cues are the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry, and they can hold back ideas and perspe ctives that we’re uncomfortable with. Mindful listening can help us to be more aware of our cues. 13 .In conclusion, the rule is straightforward: simply “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don’t l et other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.A．Then think in others’ shoesB．Researchers seem to have got itC．How can we deal with mindful listeningD．Modem life is actually full of distractionsE．But how can we apply mindful listening to our lifeF．Next, reflect on the experience you’ve gone throughG．Besides, it allows us to choose not to let them ruin communication三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

What if we could somehow enjoy their taste withoutactually eating them? A student team has now designed a spoon with a structure that stimulates taste buds (味蕾) to produce a sense of sweetness without adding calories or chemicals. The project follows previous work involving favor - enhancing cutlery like chopsticks that increase sweetness with a mild electric current.The five undergraduate and graduate research students wanted to create a new spoon called Sugarware for people with such disorders as diabetes, with which sugar is largely off their menu.The new spoon would have several bumps (凸起) on its underside to press against the tongue. The bumps can be covered with a per manent layer of molecules (分子) called ligands. These ligands bond with taste – cell receptor proteins that typically react to sugar molecules or artificial sweeteners. The bond can activate nerve signals, causing the brain to register a sense of sweetness. A diner could thus stimulate sweetness receptors without actual intake of sugar or artificial sweeteners.This idea is similar to the previous work in that they all use cutlery to enhance taste without a user having to actually consume any sugar. “But th e mechanism for stimulating the taste buds is completely different,” Shiyu Xu, one of the student researchers, says, “It uses bumps and taste - bud - stimulating molecules rather than electricity.”The idea is “very creative,” says Paola Almeida, who is th e global director of corporate innovation at candy maker Mars. But the product’s commercial success would require a significant behavioral shift among consumers: instead of adding the usual sugar or artificial sweeteners, “now we’re saying, ‘Use this cutlery,’” Almeida says, “It remains to be seen whether favor - enhancing cutlery will catch on.”；4. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A．How the new invention works. B．How a diner feel sweetness.C．How ligands and proteins link. D．How sugar molecules function.；5. In what way is the previous flavor - enhancing cutlery different from Sugarware?A．It makes food more delicious. B．It sends out signals to the brain.C．It uses electricity to enhance taste. D．It reduces users’ food consumption.；6. What is Pa ola Almeida’s attitude to the future of Sugarware?A．Positive. B．Uncertain. C．Critical. D．Worried.；7. What’s the best title of the text?A．Struggling for Low Sugar? — Try This SpoonB．Looking for Delicious Food? — This is HowC．Working for Commercial Success? — Be CreativeD．Dieting for Better Health? — Mind SweetenersCThose concerned that robots are taking over the world can rest easy-for now. Though the androids have proved useful at performing ordinary tasks, they are not ready for prime time. At least that appears to be the case at Japan’s cutting-edge Henn-na Hotel chain where over half of the robot staff is being replaced by humans.The first Henn-na Hotel opened in July 2015, where guests were greeted and checked-in by either a family-friendly English-speaking dinosaur robot or a Japanese-speaking humanoid. Autonomous robots stood ready to help guests carry luggage to their rooms, while a cute doll-shaped android called Churi, placed inside each room, providedthem with information about nearby attractions. Even the hotel’s garbage cans were robotic.Not surprisingly, the lodging, recognized in 2016 as the world’s first robot-staffed hotel by Guinness World Records, drew in curious visitors from all around the world.But as the years have passed, the hotel’s main draw — its employees — are becoming less of a novelty (新颖) and more of a bother. Also as the robots are “aging”, they are costing more to repair and maintain. Earlier this month, the hotel chain’s parent company H. I. S. announced that i t had decided to “fire” over half of the robot employees and replace them with humans. Among them are the chain’s two robot receptionists. In addition to scaring young guests, they are also unable to photocopy guests’ passports-a requirement when checking into a Japanese hotel--forcing human employees to step in each time. Also, out are the cute Churi robots, which have proved unable to answer even the simplest questions and annoyed guests by interrupting their conversations.While this is a setback, the co mpany’s officials are not discouraged. They plan to continue with their ambitious expansion plans and believe the human-robot interaction is a learning process.“When you actually use robots, you realize there are places where they aren’t needed.” said one of the officials.8. What could robots in the first Henn-na Hotel do?A．Offer guests traffic information. B．Help guests pack their luggage. C．Greet guests in English or Japanese. D．Direct guests to check in at the front desk.9. What’s one of the problems of the “fired” robots?A．They cause trouble to customers. B．They ignore instructions.C．They annoy human employees. D．They are beyond repair.10. What can be inferred about the officials of Henn-na Hotel chain?A．They think highly of their interaction with customers.B．They are against the use of state-of-art equipment.C．They plan to hire more cute Churi robots.D．They’ve realized the limitations of robots.11. What is the best title for the text?A．Robot Employees-Ready for Prime TimeB．Japanese Hotel Chain Expands AmbitiouslyC．Robot Employees-a New Novelty for HotelsD．Japanese Hotel Chain “Fires” Robot Employees二、七选五阅读No matter how old your kids are, you can take steps to improve a healthy diet and to encourage good eating habits.Family Meals12 Children like to guess what they are going to have and parents get the chance to introduce new foods to children. Parents can also use the mealtime as a chance to talk with their kids about their life.Healthy Snacks (零食)13 That’s why it’s impor tant to have enough healthy snacks, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, yogurt and whole-grain biscuits.14The best way for you to encourage healthy eating is to eat well yourself.

A study in 2019 found that the possibility of terrible events like Hurricane Maria hitting Puerto Rico is now almost five times higher due to climate change.The storms were similar in many ways but had their own features. Maria was a Category (类别) 4 hurricane whose speed was up to 155 mph, while Fiona, a Category 1 storm when it landed Puerto Rico, was gentler, with winds of up to 85 mph, which later increased to 115 mph as the storm progressed through the island.And yet, the heavy rain caused by Fiona brought Puerto Rico to its knees. According to the data by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the slow moving storms brought 15.80 inches of rain over a 5-day period, slightly more than Maria at 14.72 inchesThis confirms another long-held thought that, with climate change, horrible storms will not only become more common but also wetter.That’s because the increase in temperatures is leading to more loss of water from the sea and warmer air can hold more water vapor (水蒸气). The average temperature all over the world has already increased by nearly 1.2℃ due to climate change and for each 1℃ of warming, the air’s ability to hold water is thought to increase by about 7%. The latest research suggests that the increase may be three times higher, at 21%.；4. What was a direct cause of more storms in Puerto RicoA．Loss of forests. B．Puerto Rico’s location.C．Human activity. D．Climate change.；5. Compared with Maria, what’s the feature of Fiona progressing through Puerto RicoA．It brought less rain. B．It moved a bit slower.C．It caused a longer power cut. D．It brought more deaths.；6. What do the figures in the last paragraph showA．Rainfall increases with temperature rising.B．Puerto Rico is a place raining all the time.C．Storms are common in Puerto Rico.D．Slower storms cause more damage.；7. What’s the best title for the textA．Puerto Rico: Survival of PeopleB．Puerto Rico: Frequent FloodsC．Climate Change: Wetter Puerto RicoD．Climate Change: Disasters on Their Way to Puerto RicoCSheneman, a 33-year-old artist, was first diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病) around five years ago, and she says it was a wake-up call. Since then, health has become a huge part of her life.What she realized while battling this condition, though, is that a lot of people weren’t aware of what she went through on a daily basis. “Which is crazy to think about because there are so many diabetics out there,” she said. So, Sheneman came up with an art project that would offer a deep understanding of what diabetics go through.On April 1, she started her journey, a 470-mile walk, from her college town of Cincinnati, Ohio, and her plan is to make it to her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee, by the end of the month.Throughout this journey, people will be able to watch her glucose(葡萄糖) levels through an app that’s connected to her glucose monitor, the Dexcom G6. The monitor provides real-time alerts when her glucose levels vary too high or low.This journey is more than just showing people how physically difficult this walk is. “I want them to understand what it looks like to be diabetic and constantly checking and making sure that you’re eating the right things,” she said, adding that “just something as simple as stress can raise your blood sugar.”Sheneman was told by health professionals to do something simple, like walking every day. However, Sheneman, who grew up backpacking, wanted to test the limits of what was possible. “I think it’s important to understand that being a diabetic is not necessarily limiting you,” she said. “There’s just the most difficult part that you have to get over.”8. Why did Sheneman start the art projectA．To raise people’s awareness of diabetes. B．To raise money for all the diabetics.C．To advertise for her hometown. D．To get sympathy for herself.9. What should Sheneman pay special attention to during the journey A．The reactions and concerns of others. B．The app connected to the Dexcom G6.C．The variation of her glucose levels. D．The physical difficulty the walk causes.10. Which of the following best describes the life of a diabetic like ShenemanA．Colorful. B．Cautious.C．Artistic. D．Adventurous.11. What message does Sheneman seem to convey in the last paragraph A．Sport helps gain confidence in fighting diseases.B．We don’t have to follow the doctor’s advice.C．Nothing can stop one achieving their goals.D．Our path in life will not always be smooth.二、七选五阅读We know that choosing a college major can be very tough. But have no fear! Your choice of major will not lock you into a specific career for the rest of your life. Here’s what you need to know about college majors before you choose.What is a major12 Beyond general college requirements, you’ll also take a group of courses in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry, Literature, or Political Science.How important is my majorThe major you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future. Many graduates find jobs that have nothing to do with what they studied in college. If you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain courses. 13 .When do I choose a majorThis varies widely across schools and programs. 14 . Others require that you decide upon a major by the time that you set foot inside your first class.15Definitely. One of the most exciting aspects of college life is that it introduces you to new subjects and arouses new passions. However,keep this in mind: every major has necessary coursework. If you change your major late in the game, it may take more than the traditional four years to earn a degree.What are minors and double majorsIf one field of study doesn’t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider a minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic concentration. 16 A double major provides you with an understanding or two academic fields. It allows you to become familiar with two sets of values and views while it also requires you to fulfill two sets of requirements.A．Can I change my mindB．Is my major time-consumingC．It’s your specialized area of study in college.D．Most students find one major is more than enough.E．Some schools may give you one year or more to decide.F．The only difference is that it doesn’t require as many classes. G．Many future science doctors major in non-science related fields.三、完形填空The year 2020 was a hard year.

2023届高三晚自习英语限时训练一、阅读理解AIn the field of educational technology, some apps might be getting too smart. There are more and more apps providing help for students.PhotomathThe new, seemingly magic app allows users to take pictures of a math problem, and then receive a step-by-step solution. A Photomath spokeswoman says educators have welcomed the app with positive reviews, but the app causes a lot of angry public discussion and disagreement. Why? It is because students can use it to cheat when doing their math homework.Price: FreeiHomework 2Whether you’re a high school student or a college student, there’s one thing you’ve got for sure: a lot of schoolwork. iHomework 2 can hep you keep track of all your homework. It can help you arrange it in a particular order according to types, or based on deadlines.Price: FreeWolframAlphaWolframAlpha is similar to Photomath, but it focuses on older students studying high levels of math. The service also produces step-by-step solutions to advanced topics, making it a popular tool for college students.Price: ¥18.00Homework HelperChinese Internet search company Baidu has launched an app called Homework Helper with which students can get answers to homework. Users post a picture or type their homework questions onto online forums, and those who answer the questions can win e-coins that can be used to buy some products. The app has more than 800 million users, much to the concern of many parents who argue that the students spend less time thinking about challenging problems.Price: Free1. How does iHomework 2 benefit students?A．By organizing homework in some order. B．By offering answers to homework. C．By keeping track of exam results. D．By setting the deadline for homework.2. Which app can help solve advanced math problems?A．Photomath. B．iHomework 2.C．WolframAlpha. D．Homework Helper.3. What is special about Homework Helper?A．It is free of charge. B．It has online forums.C．It can recognize pictures. D．It raises some concern.BOn Monday, a scientist and doctor Robert Winston is to formally ask a question in congress about what assessments the government has made “for requiring adults riding bicycles in city centres to heave a licence and third-party insurance”. The letter below is the entirely imagined response I would like the government to make to him.Dear Robert,You ask what assessments we’ve made for your proposal about obliging cyclists to have licences and insurance. The brief answer is: none. Nor do we have any plans to do so.Why? Again, the short answer is this: it’s a silly and pointless thing to suggest, as evidenced by the fact that practically no countries or territories anywhere in the world require cyclists to be licensed, or to have compulsory insurance.I suppose it’s only fair if I explain why I think it is such a non-issue. It’s pretty simple: such a plan would achieve pretty much nothing, while causing significant problems. More widely, any sensible governments will do everything in their power to get more people cycling, not to put pointless obstacles in their way.Let’s just take one example. As I’m sure you know as a doctor, one of the problems facing our nation is that the National Health System is likely to collap se under the caring for an increasingly overweight population. Inactive living is central to this. Even a fairly brief daily bike trip can have miraculous benefits for people’s health.Next, how would such rules even work? Would the licensing and insurance be just for adults, or also children? How would the system even be enforced-would it also require all bikes to be registered with number plates?Finally, what would you hope to achieve by this? If you believe licensing transport users stops wrongdoing, can I point to you the data showing how a third of drivers admit to using handheld phones while driving, despite the law forbidding it.So, to summarize：your plan would be to introduce a hugely new administrative scheme that would most likely have limited effect on the behaviour of averagely law-abiding (守法的) transport users who rarely harm others, while putting people off from this beneficial type of transport.I’m afraid I just don’t get it.4. What does Robert most probably want to know by asking the quest ion?A．whether the government has made efforts regarding his proposal.B．whether each bike rider has applied for a third-party insurance.C．whether the congress has sympathy towards the cyclists.D．whether doctors can receive the government’s support.5. What does the author think of the plan proposed by Robert?A．It may raise people’s insurance awareness.B．It can motivate people to obey the law.C．It imitates what other countries are doing.D．It is difficult to implement and enforce.6. The example in paragraph 6 is used .A．to draw people’s attention to overweight problemsB．to prove that cycling can cause problemsC．to explain why governments advocate cyclingD．to illustrate how broken the NHS is7. We can conclude from the passage that the author .A．holds prejudices against Robert WinstonB．is a pleasant and good-tempered personC．has the right to speak for the governmentD．is skilled in argumentative techniquesCMany children’s hospitals already have storytelling programmes that aim to cheer up patients. But new research suggests that storytelling also has physiological benefits. “Until now, the positive evidence for storytelling was based on ‘common sense’ that interacting with the child may distract, entertain and reduce psychological suffer ing,” said Dr Jorge Moll, of D’Or Institute for Research and Education (IDOR), Brazil. “But there was a lack of a solid scientific basis.”“During storytelling, something happens that we call ‘narrative transportation’. The child, through fantasy, can experience sensations and thoughts that transport him or her to another world, a place that is different from the hospital room, and is, therefore, far from the unpleasant conditions of hospitalization,” says Guilherme Brockington.The team, based at IDOR and the Federal University of ABC, Brazil, studied 81 children between the ages of two and seven, all of whom were in the intensive care unit (ICU) at a hospital in São Paulo. A group of 41 children each had a session with a storyteller, lasting 25 to 30 minutes. A control group of 40 children each had the same amount of time with the same professionals, but they told riddles instead. Before and after the sessions, the team took saliva samples from each child and assessed their pain level. The saliva samples allowed the researchers to measure levels of the hormone cortisol, which is related to stress, and the hormone oxytocin, which plays a role in empathy.Both groups of children benefited from the sessions: they all had less cortisol and more oxytocin in their saliva, suggesting they were less stressed, and they reported less pain and discomfort. However, the results were twice as strong for the storytelling group as the control group. At the end of the sessions, the children also took part in a word-associatio n exercise including words like ‘hospital’, ‘nurse’ and ‘doctor’. The team said that children from the control group said “this is the bad woman who comes to give me an injection” in response to the pictures of a doctor or a nurse, while the storytelling g roup said “this is the woman who comes to cure me”.“I consider this study to be one of the most important I have participated in, due to its potential direct impact on practices in the hospital environment, aiming at the relief of human suffering. We intend to support volunteering devoted to the noble activity of storytelling, now with more solid scientific evidence,” said Moll.8. According to the passage, “narrative transportation” indicates children .A．feel that they are placed into the world of a storyB．fire up their imagination and expand their horizonsC．have more empathy with the characters in the storiesD．experience the unpleasant conditions of hospitalization9. In Para.3, the author mainly tells the readers about .A．the application of the research B．the purpose of the researchC．the limitation of the research D．the process of the research10. How does the author present the findings of the research?A．By making comparisons. B．By giving definitions.C．By presenting examples. D．By analyzing cause and effect.11. Which of the following may be the response from the storytelling group?A．A hospital is the place where I go when I’m very sick.B．A hospital is the place where I get an injection in my arm.C．A hospital is the place where I am taken care of to feel better.D．A hospital is the place where I’ll have to take some medicine.二、七选五阅读How to Adjust to a New SchoolSchool is a base for students, where they learn to succeed. 12 When you go to a new school, you might worry that you don't know anyone.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时小练含答案
高三英语晚自习限时训练【阅读理解+七选五+语法填空+应用文写作+读后续写】一、阅读理解AChester is one of the best cities in the UK. As soon as you arrive in Chester you will appreciate the city’s unique atmosphere and sense of history. Founded by the Romans over 2,000 years ago, much of the Roman influence remains and Chester’s city walls ar e the most complete in Britain. Combined with history and heritage(遗产), Chester is a dynamic city full of bars, pubs, clubs, hotels and restaurants for you to discover, tempting you to visit again and again.Travelling to Chester?Chester is easily accessible by many means of transport — whether you are travelling by rail, car, bus or plane. Please check our route planner below to help you plan your journey to Chester. Onceyou arrive in the city there are numerous car parks; however, during rush hours the easiest way to travel in Chester city centre is via park and ride facilities, which are parking lots with public transportation.Hotels?From bed & breakfasts to the luxury of Chester’s only five star hotel, Chester has all covered. Whether your trip is for business or pleasure your room is just a click away!Sightseeing and Tours?One of the best ways to see Chester is by a guided tour and you have a variety to choose from. Whether you choose the traditional guided walk, to be guid ed around Chester’s historical landmarksby bus or to take a boat down the River Dee, you will sure enjoy the delights of Chester.1. What can we know about Chester from the first paragraph?A．It is a newly built city.B．It is the best city in the UK.C．It is rich in the deep culture and modern touch.D．Many of its city walls were completed by British people.2. What is the most convenient way to get around Chester city centre during rush hours?A．By bus. B．By bicycle.C．By rail. D．By taxi.3. What had you better do to have a better understanding of Chester?A．Choose a bus tour. B．Join a guided tour.C．Take a traditional walk. D．Swim down the river.BWalk into any waiting area and you will see people of all ages on the phone. It is rare to see people sitting and simply thinking while waiting for the next part of the day or night. We have also observed people playing with their mobile phones while having dinner with others or in the presenceof their families. It seems that everyone is experiencing FOMO (fear of missing out) or a strong addiction to electronic devices.Why do adults, middle school students, and even young children turn to electronics while waiting?A recent study by Hatano et al. (2022) found that in different cultures people underestimate how enjoyable and attractive simply thinking might be. In a series of studies on university students in both Japan and the United Kingdom, the participants rated their level of expected enjoyment and engagement in simply thinking and then rated their actual level of enjoyment and participation in thinking after the waiting period. During the waiting period, the participants only had the option to think. They were not allowed to take electronics into the waiting area. The participants were not necessarily happy about thinking. Instead, they underestimated the benefits related to thinking and thought that thinking was aversive before the waiting period, which only allowed thinking without electronic products. After this waiting period, they admitted that thinking was more interesting and easier than expected.Thinking can include problem-solving, goal-setting, and a variety of other creative tasks. These outcomes can be extremely productive and satisfying. Perhaps it is time for parents and educators to teach chil dren about the importance of paying attention to one’s thoughts. We need to be better role models and put down our own phones when there is an opportunity to simply wait and think. We need to provide these opportunities for both ourselves and our children.；4. What’s the purpose of the author describing the scene about people’s using electronics?A．To introduce the importance of electronics.B．To tell what bad influences electronics have.C．To voice his views on thinking while waiting.D．To explain why we should have better ways of communication.；5. What does the underlined word “aversive” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Satisfactory. B．Boring. C．Worried. D．Meaningful.；6. What should parents and educators do according to the text?A．Provide opportunities for children.B．Pick up the phones while waiting.C．Underestimate the benefits of thinking.D．Tell children about the significance of thinking.；7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．Why should we put our phones down?B．How can electronic products affect us?C．How do we think freely by using phones?D．Why does thinking while waiting make people smart?CIn the past 30 years, the non-profit organization Friends of Trees planted trees along the streets of Portland, Oregon. Now, a new study shows that each tree planted was connected with significant reductions in non-accidental and cardiovascular (心血管的) mortality (死亡率).Evidence pointing to a connection between exposure to nature and lower mortality is obvious. Between 1990 and 2019, Friends of Trees planted 49,246 street trees. The research team looked at the number of trees planted in a given area in the past 5, 10 or 15 years. They connected this information with mortality due to cardiovascular, respiratory (呼吸的) or non-accidental causes in that same area, using data from the Oregon Health Authority. The results showed that in neighborhoods in which more trees had been planted, mortality rates were lower. This connection was significant for cardiovascular and non-accidental mortality, particularly for males and people over the age of 65.Furthermore, the connection got stronger as trees aged and grew: The reduction in mortality rate connected with trees planted 11 to 15 years before was double that observed with trees planted in the past 1 to 5 years. This means that older trees are connected with larger decreases in mortality, and that protecting existing grown trees may be particularly important for public health. This study doesn’t provide a direct opinion into how trees improv e health. However, the result that larger trees have a greater health effect than smaller ones is telling, because larger trees are better at absorbing air pollution, moderating temperatures, and reducing noise.“We observed the effect both in green and l ess green neighborhoods, which suggests that street tree planting benefits both,” said Geoffrey H. Donovan, first author of the study. “Be-sides, the benefits of tree planting greatly outweigh (大于) the cost. Our results provide an important evidence-base f or clear measures (e. g. planting trees) to increase the lifetime of urban people.”；8. How long did it take Friends of Trees to plant 49,246 street trees?A．5 years. B．10 years. C．15 years. D．30 years.；9. What do we know about the study from paragraph 3?A．Women gain no benefit from trees.B．Tree planting can cure respiratory diseases.C．Older trees contribute more to public health.D．Newly planted trees can better improve public health.；10. What does Donovan suggest doing?A．Protecting trees in forests. B．Planting more street trees.C．Joining Friends of Trees. D．Getting more benefits from nature.；11. How does the author mainly develop the topic of the text?A．By listing numbers. B．By stating results.C．By describing processes. D．By raising questions.二、七选五阅读Is it time to ditch sugar?It’s no secret that sugar can cause issues if you’re indulging (放任) in a little too much of the sweet stuff. Still, most Americans are eating too much sugar. The harmful effects it can have on your physical health are well studied. 12 .Sugar can affect your moodYou probably turn to a doughnut (甜甜圈) or soda for an extra boost during a long day. Yet sugar may not be such a positive pick-me-up after all. Recent research indicates that sugary treats have no positive effect on mood. 13 .One study published in 2017 found that consuming a diet high in sugar can increase the chances of mood disorders. A more recent 2019 study found that regular consumption of saturated fats (饱和脂肪) and added sugars were related to higher feelings of anxiety in adults over age 60.14It’s hard to avoid reaching for comfort foods, especially after a difficult day. But the cycle of consuming sugar to manage your emotions may only make your feelings of sadness, tiredness, or hopelessness worse. Multiple studies have found a link between diets high in sugar and depression.15 . These can lead to depression and may even increase the long-term risk of developing a mental health disorder in some people.Sugar destroys your brain powerEmerging research has found that diets high in sugar can damage cognitive functioning, even in the absence of extreme weight gain or too much energy intake. A 2015 study found that consuming high levels of sugar-sweetened drinks made neurocognitive functions like decision making and memory worse. 16 . But a more recent study found that healthy volunteers in their 20s scored worse on memory tests and had poorer appetite control after just 7 days of eating a diet high in saturated fat and added sugars.Although more studies are needed to solidify the effects on mental health of sugar consumption, it’s important to consider how diet can affect your well-being.A．Sugar can weaken your ability to deal with stressB．Granted, the research was done on ratsC．Overconsumption of sugar triggers imbalances in certain brain chemicalsD．Sugar can increase your risk for developing depressionE．In fact, sugar may have the opposite effect over timeF．However, the effect on mental health is worth taking a second lookG．If you’re dying for sweets, here’s what to eat instead三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

But some are moving into their own places as social norms (规范) develop.When Alan, a civil servant willing to challenge and reform this conventional stereotype (陈规), decided to move out of his family home in Singapore, it still took the 27-year-old a month to talk about the topic with his parents. He feared they wouldn’t understand. After all, Alan’s home was a pleasant place. The family’s three-bedroom condominium (公寓) wasn’t far from the city-state’s central business district. There was homemade dinner on the table each night, and his laundry was always donefor him. “There wasn’t a push factor, just pull factors,” he says. “I’d lived with my parents my whole life, so I just wanted to experience what it’s like being by myself, you know?”In the West, leaving home is just another milestone in adulthood. Yet in most Asian societies, things are different. Culturally, moving out is sometimes considered as showing disrespect to your parents, which makes it even challenging and praiseworthy. In Singapore, living at home until marriage is a common practice; an estimated 97% of unmarried individuals lived with their parents in 2013.While the trend is in part driven by deep-rooted ideas of filial piety (孝道), it’s also linked to government policies on accommodation for young people. Most Singaporeans live in public housing units, apartments funded by the state that are known as HDBs. About 90% of those who live in HDBs own their home.Those who can’t buy HDBs can rent via the private property market — but costs are much higher. “These cost restrictions,” says Dr Chua, a professor of sociology, “effectively keep most young, unmarried people living at home with their parents.”Yet Alan, who now rents a flat in Hougang with two friends from junior college, is among the courageous young pioneers resisting the long-time cultural norm. These commendable young people are deciding that the price of the freedom to organize their own life is worth it and stepping out of their home.；4. What can we know from the second and third paragraphs?A．The East and the West are very different in most aspects.B．Alan decided to live separately mainly due to some objective reasons.C．The majority of single young people followed social customs in living in 2013. D．In the East, it is culturally acceptable for the young to live separately from the elderly.；5. What mainly causes most single young people to live with their parents in Singapore?A．Their parents’ expectations.B．Their personal wish.C．The home environment. D．The traditional culture and housing prices.；6. What is the author’s attitude towards the young Singaporeans like Alan moving out? A．Confused. B．Positive. C．Indifferent. D．Doubtful.；7. What is the best title for the text?A．Young Singaporeans’ Relationship with Their ParentsB．Young Singaporeans Fighting Against Old Social CustomsC．Young Singaporeans Striking Out Their Way to IndependenceD．Young Singaporeans’ New Way to Solve High Housing PricesCEradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution for two of our country’s continuous problems: garbage and poverty. It’s called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snacklovers: Rather than throw your empty chip bags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless.Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lay’s, and other favorites at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, wher e Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in soapy hot water, they cut them open, lay them flat, and iron them together. They use materials from old coats to line the insides. It takes about four hours to make a sleepi ng bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “not allowed water to enter, not heavy, and not difficult to carry around,” Oleita said. Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800, 000 chip bags and created 110 sleeping bags since last December.Sure, it would be simpler to raise the money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita — whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of achieving a better life－and her fellow volunteers. “We are devoted to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says.And, of course, there’s the symbolism of saving bags that would otherwise land in the trash and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita stated, “I think it’s time to show connections between all of these issues.”8. What’s the aim of the Chip Bag Project?A．To draw the snack lover’s attention to the homeless.B．To change the chip bags into sleeping bags for the homeless.C．To recycle the garbage to remove the poverty for the country.D．To help solve the environmental pollution caused by chip bags.9. What can we learn from Para. 2?A．Chip eaters can place the empty bags wherever they want.B．Eradajere Oleita collects the empty chip bags independently.C．The sleeping bags are tough but not easy to carry around.D．The procedure of making a sleeping bag needs masses of chip bags.10. What does the words mean by Oleita in Para. 3?A．The environmental issues should be stressed.B．Poverty should be lifted out of the homeless.C．The Chip Bag Project will impact the society and environment.D．The Chip Bag Project will be devoted to achieving a better life.11. What can be inferred from the text?A．Chip bags are always used to help the homeless.B．Chip bags are only useful in addressing the environmental problems.C．The issues of environment and poverty will be stressed in the future. D．Environmental injustice and poverty are disconnected with each other.二、七选五阅读It is very important to keep fit and stay healthy. A lot of people fail to believethe good that daily exercise does to health and only begin to do so when they suffer from health problems. 12Regular(经常的)exercise helps you keep in good shape. Maybe, you are one ofthe many overweight people struggling with problems of body shape, yet you do not want to do anything about that. Sometimes you see very nice clothes, but they don’tfit you because of your body size. 13Doing exercise keeps you thinking quickly at all times. It’s a perfect way of developing the strength of your mind. 14 Besides, there is a reason why most athletes are usually happy. The release(释放)of dopamine (多巴胺) when doing exercise changes their feelings for the better. 15 Run around the blocks each morning, jog or lift weights and see how much good doing exercise does to your m ind.The good of doing exercise every day is endless, but a lot of people pay no attention to it and finally develop lifestyle-related illnesses later in life. So taking exercise is very important and some of the results of not taking exercise are very serious.16 Having fitness goals that mean something to you will help you keep a strict fitness schedule and achieve the result you want. Besides, using fitness trackers, you can monitor your general physical activity and find out whether you have mad e progress.A．Then why is it important to stay fit?B．How can you drive yourself to exercise?C．Setting high goals for exercise is very important.D．Everyone hopes to live a relaxing and comfortable life.E．So keeping your body active improves the work of your brain.F．Fitness exercise will help you lose extra fat and be in great shape.G．Maybe not having enough exercise is the reason for your easy anger.三、完型填空I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧场). He has let me use his 17 to raise money for poor students. 18 I was there he introduced me by saying, “I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house. It all goes back to a story about a boy who was the son of a poor horse trainer.”One day the boy was 19 to write a paper about what he wanted to do whenhe grew up. He wrote a paper describing his 20 of someday owning a horse ranch. Two days later he 21 his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with a note 22 , “See me after class.”The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “Why did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is a(n) 23 dream for a young boy like you. You have no coins. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money.” Then the teac her added, “Ifyou 24 rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will 25 your grade.” The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. Finally, the boy 26 thesame paper, making no 27 at all. He said, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my 28 .”Having told the story, Monty said, “I tell you this story 29 you are sitting on my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper 30 over the fireplace.” He added, “The best part of the story is t hat the same teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week.”When the teacher was leaving, he said, “Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream 31 . Fortunately you had enough determination not to give up.” Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what happens.17.

What can people do in both Eiffel Tower and AI Faisaliah Tower?A．Watch city lights.B．Enjoy food.C．Explore beautiful beaches.D．Experience AI service.3. Where is the text probably taken from?A．An academic article.B．An educational website.C．A geography textbook.D．A travel brochure.BThe recent launch of ChatGPT, a chatbot created by Open AI for public use, has underlined the growing reach of digital technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) in working life. Like most technological revolutions that affect the workplace, chatbots can potentially create winners and losers and will affect both blue-collar and white-collar workers.ChatGPT is a natural language processing (NLP) tool that allows users to interact with the GPT-3 model using natural language. The model is trained on a great amount of data, which allows it to generate human-like responses to a wide variety of inputs.This type of AI can greatly benefit the productivity of skilled workers. Chatbots offer the possibility to automate (使自动化) boring and time-consuming tasks, such as writing standardized reports, meeting minutes and emails. Workers could therefore be freed to focus on more important and creative tasks. A chatbot virtual personal assistant could guide skilled workers through different projects or production processes. It can also generate original content and ideas, and potentially help to research and develop new products and services.But tools such as ChatGPT presents a real risk of skilled and semi-skilled workers losing their jobs. For example, chatbots can be developed to train employees in an organization, resulting in the unemployment of human trainers.Previous waves of technological change have created both winners and losers. Workers who are quicker to adjust to technological change will win by increasingly taking on tasks complementary (互补的) to AI while giving up automated ones.；4. This passage centers around the effects of AI like ChatGPT on .A．life B．entertainment C．sports D．work；5. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about .A．what ChatGPT is B．how ChatGPT is usedC．why ChatGPT is created D．who created ChatGPT；6. In paragraph 3, how many benefits of Chatbots are mentioned?A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.；7. According to the text, faced with technological revolutions, workers hadbetter .A．continue ahead with their automated jobs and work harderB．do other things while keeping up with the automated onesC．adapt to the change by doing other things to form a good combination with AID．give up automated jobs and just learn as much AI knowledge as possibleCTo deal with a big environmental problem, chemists have been thinking small. Really small. Their new tiny robot has one purpose: to help clean up tiny bits of plastic (塑料的) polluting waterways across the world.Each new microrobot is no bigger than the tip of a sharpened pencil. They are magnetic (磁的) and shaped like stars. When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions (化学反应) that push them through water in a specific direction. When the y find a piece of plastic, they catch it and start to break it down. When the lights go out, they let go and are free to be used again. In a new study, the scientists reported that these robots can either break down a piece of microplastic or hold onto it to be collected later.Chemist Martin Pumera at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague led the project. He studies ways to build microrobots. He says: “Let’s make them do something useful.”Pumera chose to center on the problem caused b y microplastics. It’s a big problem. These are tiny bits of plastic, usually no wider than the top of a pencil eraser. And they’re everywhere — from the bottom of the ocean to air blowing onto ice at the top of mountains. They’ve turned up in drinking wate r, both bottled and tap water. Some studies found that too many pieces of plastic end up in the world’s waters. Plastic doesn’t easily degrade (分解) or fall apart. That’s always been one of its study points.Pumera says his final goal is to make cheap and environmentally-friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world. He thought that at first they might be most useful in plants that treat wastewater. There they can remove plastic before it reaches open water.In lab experiments, the star-shaped swimmers catch each of four different types of plastic. And after a week exposed (暴露) to light, the robots had reduced the weight of the plastics. It wasn’t much — only by 3 percent. But that was a sign they were breaking the plastic down.In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. There are many types of plastics. And even these microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading them all.The researchers also have not yet shown how safe this system is for the environment, although Pumera says that’s t heir next goal. The first real-world test will be in a waste water-treatment plant.；8. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Microrobots. B．Stars.C．Pencils. D．Microplastics.；9. Paragraph 4 is mainly about .A．the experiment carried out by PumeraB．the functions that the microrobot holdsC．the places where microplastics usually turn upD．the reason why Pumera invented the microrobot；10. According to the passage microrobots .A．can break down plastics in the darkB．prove to be most useful in open waterC．do no harm to the environment at presentD．need further testing before they are put into use；11. What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To encourage people to find more solutions to pollutions.B．To present a new way of breaking down microplastics.C．To stress the importance of protecting the water.D．To explain a serious environmental problem.二、七选五阅读Camping is a fun and exciting experience, but to stay organized and safe, you must carefully prepare for the trip.12 . If it is just you or your family, things will become easier. However, if you are taking a group of friends, you’d better make sure you get insurance information and health information before you start. If someone is injured on the trip, the insurance information will make a huge difference in the care they receive. 13 . For example, for those who are suffering basic diseases, make sure they have enough medicines available.Then decide how long you will stay and figure out where you will be camping. If you do not know this, you will go through the trouble of purchasing and packing a tent when you were supposed to sleep in a cabin.14 . The food should be enough for three meals and an optional snack per day, as well as lots of water. Basically, ensure food safety. Foods like dairy products and meat go bad easily. 15 .At last, gather all of the other things on the “Things You’ll Need" list and try to pack them in a small, lightweight bag. 16 . Materials to deal with burns, cuts, and bumps should be prepared in it.A．Health information is also importantB．Stay calm when an accident happensC．Make sure they are fresh and safe to eatD．And never forget to pack up a first aid kitE．Firstly, decide with whom you are campingF．Taking exercise every day is a good way to keep healthyG．Of course, you’d better pack an appropriate amount of food三、语法填空17 most TV stations and video-streaming platforms try to attract viewers by producing star-studded(明星荟萃的)reality shows, Henan TV has gone viral(走红)by promoting traditional culture through Chinese dance.This year, Henan TV produced seven dance pieces 18 (highlight)traditional culture, such as Rhapsody on the Luo River Goddess(《洛神水赋》), a two-minute underwater dance, and Dragon Boat Festival and Guardian Warriors of Longmen(《龙门金刚》), a dance piece 19 (support)by AR technology against the backdrop of the Longmen Grottoes.Last month, Yao Wei, director of the TV station’s Innovation Center, was invitedto talk about how the TV station 20 (produce)the hit dance pieces at a three-day forum centering on the research of Chinese dance.The pieces made an emotional impact on audiences, most of 21 are members of Gen Z(people born between 1995 and 2009), Yao said.“It 22 (be)over forty years since the country’s reform and opening-up and the younger generations have grown up with a more open mindset. With plenty of resources and opportunities, they embrace Chinese culture and are proud of it,” said Yao. “ 23 we need to do is present Chinese culture and tradition in interesting ways for those young people.”Yao added that Henan TV has been producing shows highlighting traditional culture, such as traditional operas and kung fu, for nearly 30 years.“ 24 (appeal)to younger audiences, we are also changing our shows. One of the keys is to produce content with strong visual creativity,” Yao said. “For example, the latest technology and unconventional stage settings, like underwater scenes, have become our new ways of telling stories about traditional Chinese culture, rather than simply narrating history with traditional video content.”Another key to successfully 25 (reach)younger audiences is using social media platforms to promote their shows.“Social media 26 (shape)and driven by young people. It’s a powerful form of communication. When they take a quick scroll through their phones, they easily become interested in an eye-catching video,” Yao said.四、完形填空Mice are at their best at night. But a new analysis suggests researchers often test the nightly creatures during the day, which could alter results and create 27 across various studies, if they record time-of-day information 28 . Scientists assume that waking up lab mice in the daytime may twist research.Of the 200 papers examined in the new study, more than half cither failed to report the timing of behavioral testing or did so 29 . On the contrary, they found only 20percent reported 30 testing. The analysis was published in Neuroscience & Bio-behavioral Reviews.West Virginia University neuro-scientist Randy Nelson, the study's lead author, says this is likely a matter of human 31 . “It is easier to get students and schools to work duri ng the day than at night,” Nelson says. But that advantage 32 .“Time of day not only impacts the intensity of many 33 , including mice activity, aggressiveness of their behavior, and hormone levels,” but changes in those factors can only be 34 during certain parts of the daytime cycle, says University of Wyoming behavioral neuro-scientist William D．Todd. This means that “failing to report time of day of data collection and tests makes 35 of results extremely difficult,” adds Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center staff scientist Natalia Machado. Neither Todd nor Machado was involved in the new study.36 , the study researchers say it is critical that scientists report the timing of their work and consider the fact that animals' behavioral and physiological responses can 37 with the hour. As a first step, Nelson says, “obviously, taking time-of-day into consideration seems like 38 fruit in terms of line assing behavioral neuroscience research reliability, reproducibility and rigor (严谨性)University of Calgary psychologist Michael Antle, who was also not involved in the analysis, says such differences in how studies are run 39 a “reproducibility crisis” in science, with other laboratories unable to 40 study results. “Running a study at the wrong time,” he says, “could lead to us completely 41 a finding altogether.”27.

I met the Man of the Trees in summer ten years ago, when I was visiting Uncle Jita.Those were difficult times. People were cutting down our forest, and there was often flooding. Sometimes our water supply was dirty. When our pump(水泵)did have clean water, we had to wait in line for ages. When the pump wasn’t working, we had to walk five kilometres to the closest stream.But I was happy. I was going to see my favorite uncle. When the day finally arrived, Dad drove me to Uncle Jita’s house and left. Once he saw me, Uncle Jita announced, “Tomorrow we’re going to explore a magical place. Here is my camera, Amy. You can take photos of what you see.”The following day, we woke up and left early on a boat. The trip was exciting. But when we got off, there was ... nothing in front of us. “I don’t want to t ake pictures of this,” I complained.Uncle laughed,“Start walking, Amy. I promise you’ll be surprised.” After some time, I could see the outline of a forest in the distance. A little closer, there was a man waving to us.“That’s Kabir. The forest you see is his. He planted every single tree.” As we walked towards Kabir, Uncle explained that thirty years ago, the whole area was a wasteland. But one day Kabir decided to change all that and started planting trees. Thanks to him, part of the wasteland is now a paradise(天堂).Uncle introduced me to Kabir, who had gray hair and a determined face. “Jita told me you like animals. Are you ready to see some?” he asked. “Of course!” I replied. We continued walking and soon were under the trees. I turned my head and was amazed at the difference between the two places. All because of the efforts of one man.Like Uncle said, Kabir’s forest was magical. We saw deer, rhinos, and even tigers. During lunchtime, Kabir explained how, by planting trees, it was possible to stop the land from eroding(侵蚀).注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
