Then pick up some great ethnic souvenirs at Pagoda Street. Life in Chinatown As the descendants of the nation’s early immigrants, today’s Chinese still keep many of the traditions and practices of their ancestors. A unique blend of old and new awaits you at one of the nation’s oldest ethnic settlements. Against a background of towering skyscrapers you’ll see rows of carefully preserved historic shop houses from decades-old family-run businesses and family associations, to CD stores, spas and high-tech companies. Souvenirs of Chinatown Lacquerware, woodcrafts and masks Chinese silk, calligraphy and seal carvings The Routes Chinatown extends over a fairly large area, and so, a main route has been planned to help you capture the soul of Chinatown, while an extension offer a more in-depth perspective. PLACES OF INTEREST Main Route 1. The majestic 2. Chinatown Street Markets 3. Chinatown Heritage Centre 4. SM Temple 5. Chinatown Complex, Market and Food Centre 6. T Park 7. Tea Chapter Extension 1. Chinese Weekly Entertainment Club 2. FTC Museum Best Time of Week to go Weekdays — set out early around 10 a. m. or later in the afternoon, when it’s cooler.

D. “A cultural feast” refers to sights and food of different ethnic groups in Chinatown. B At the beginning of graduate school, I knew that if I wanted to get tenure (长期聘用), I had to be productive. However, when my first three papers were rejected by major journals, a leading expert told me my projects were hopeless, and I wondered if I should drop out. We all get rejected at work, whether it’s having our suggestions shot down or getting fired from a job. It causes pain. Neuroscientists (神经系统科学家) have scanned the brains of people who have cruelly been excluded from an online game. The physiological (生理学的) response looks fairly similar to processing physical pain. Apparently, this was adaptive in our evolutionary past. If rejection didn’t hurt, you might have been perfectly comfortable leaving your tribe, which would not be good for your survival. But it’s left us nervous and likely to overreact to everyday rejections. If you’ve ever given a presentation and felt upset by the one unfriendly face in a room full of smiles, you know what I mean. That’s the bad news. The good news is that we can learn to accept rejection calmly. “When you’re insecure in one, you rely on the other one that’s doing better at that time. Pliability (柔韧性) is the definition of strength,” said filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan. When my work got rejected early in my academic career, pliability became my source of strength. My identity as a researcher was under threat, but that wasn’t what had drawn me to graduate school in the first place. I had another, stronger identity: I wanted to be a teacher. However, I hadn’t had the chance: The first two years of my program were supposed to focus entirely on research. I realized that if I wanted to bounce back from the research rejections, I had to find a way to teach. I convinced an adviser to sign off on independent study projects for a group of students, and I started meeting with them weekly to teach my own little class. The conversations with the students gave rise to my first two major papers, which gave me a head start toward tenure. 4. What was the author’s reaction to the leading expert’s words? A. He took his advice. B. He felt discouraged. C. He paid no attention. D. He consulted another expert. 5. What have neuroscientists found out? A. Rejection really hurts. B. Rejection is important to survival. C. People tend to overreact to rejection. D. Physical pain grows because of rejection. 6. What does the author advise us to do when facing rejection? A. Find out the reasons behind it. B. Forgive those who reject us. C. Turn to our stronger identity. D. Learn a lesson from past failures. 7. What happened to the author at last? A. He left graduate school. B. He turned into a middle school teacher. C. He worked on practicing his physical pliability. D. He accomplished some research work successfully. C From students to executives, intelligence is shown to be a key factor in better leadership, as it is vital for navigating through complex situations like market changes and legal obstacles. But new research on leadership suggests that having a higher IQ can be viewed as harmful. Past studies indicate that groups led by smarter individuals tend to perform better objectively, yet some research suggests followers perceive extremely intelligent leaders as less effective. Dean Simonton from the University of California, proposed that such leaders’ complex ideas might be difficult for people to grasp, their solutions harder to carry out, and followers might find it harder to relate to them. Recently, Simonton and his team put this theory to the test. The researchers looked at 379 male and female business leaders, across fields that included banking, retail (零售) and technology. The managers took IQ tests, and each was rated on leadership style and effectiveness by an average of eight co-workers. IQ positively correlated with ratings of leader effectiveness, strategy formation, vision and several other characteristics — up to a point. The ratings peaked at an IQ of around 120, which is higher than 8 percent of office workers. Beyond that the ratings declined. The researchers suggest the “ideal” IQ could be higher or lower in various fields, depending on whether technical versus social skills are more valued in a given work culture. “It’s an interesting and thoughtful paper,” says Paul Sackett, a psychology professor at the University of Minnesota. “To me, the right interpretation of the work would be that it highlights a need to understand what high-IQ leaders do that leads to lower opinions by followers. The wrong interpretation would be, ‘Don’t hire high-IQ leaders.” The study’s lead author, John Antonakis, a psychologist at the University of Lausanne, suggests leaders should use their intelligence to generate creative metaphors (隐喻) that will persuade and inspire others — the way former U.S. President Obama did. “I think the only way a smart person can signal their intelligence appropriately and still connect with the people,” Antonakis says, “is to speak in appealing ways.” 8. Why are some high-IQ leaders regarded as less effective? A. Followers assess them irresponsibly. B. Followers lack understanding power. C. They fail to express themselves properly. D. They perform better by objective measures. 9. What does the IQ tests indicate? A. IQ isn’t related to leader effectiveness. B. IQ tests are useless and imperfect. C. IO is related to people’s social status. D. IQ can be affected by certain factors. 10. What can be inferred from what Paul Sackett says? A. High-IQ leaders can’t be employed. B. He was not involved in the research. C. The research can be interpreted differently. D. The research is interesting and accurate. 11. The “Obama” example in the last paragraph illustrates ______. A. how to be a high-IQ leader in the future B. how to communicate with people effectively C. what is the appealing way to speak to voters D. what is the best way to generate creative metaphors D In the late 19th century Yellowstone became the first great National Park, described as America’s “best idea.” But the park was devastating for the Native Americans who had lived or hunted within their borders and who were displaced. The U. S. has taken one small step to compensate by returning the National Bison Range to its Native owners as a first step. Next, at the 2021 UN Biodiversity Conference, the government should ensure new conservation plans support Indigenous (本土的) and local communities for their conservation achievements. In 2016 biologist Edward responded to the biodiversity crisis by calling for half of Earth to be left to wilderness, birthing the“30×30”campaign to protect 30 percent of Earth’s land and sea surface by 2030. Backed by many scientists, major conservation organizations, the target is likely to be adopted by the CBD. Critics argue that the “30×30” initiative, aimed at conservation, could become a tool for exploitation (剥削). They claim it may unjustly burden those least responsible for environmental issues like climate change and biodiversity loss. There’s concern that powerful entities could use the proposal as an excuse for seizing land from disadvantaged groups. Indigenous territories, which host 80% of Earth’s remaining biodiversity, are particularly at risk of being targeted in the name of protection. Tragically, the very communities that bravely protect nature against exploitation could face displacement, with estimates suggesting up to 300 million people could lose their homes. There is a way to do global conservation right. Indigenous communities are as good as or better than governments at protecting biodiversity and already conserve a quarter of Earth’s land surface. The CBD needs to ensure that they get secure rights to their territories, as well as the resources to defend them. The National Park could lead the way in this effort by helping rescue nature and its most passionate defenders from the militarized (军事化) conservation model it pioneered one and a half centuries ago. That is a crucial step toward a relief for the incredible life forms that share our planet, as well as their Indigenous guardians. 12. What does the underlined word “devastating” in paragraph 1 mean? A. innovative B. beneficial C. promising D. disastrous 13. Which of the following is true about the“30×30”campaign? A. A biologist’s advocate to conserve nature. B. CBD’s ambition to empower Indigenes. C. The compensation made by the United States. D. An excuse to seize land from dominant groups. 14. What is an ideal way to handle global conservation? A. Precautions against reducing Pygmy people to poverty and misery. B. Relying on the governments to displace locals from their homeland. C. Militarized conservation model pioneered by the United Sates. D. Returning the land in the care of the Indigenous communities. 15. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Conservation or Modernization? B. Where Is the Next Yellowstone? C. Protect Biodiversity’s Protectors. D. Government as Nature’s Guardian. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make Your Writing Flow?

He was five years old and both his parents were dead. He’d headed to his aunt’s, but she had seven children and couldn’t take him in permanently. Soon Mauro was participating in the street economy, along with roughly 10,000 other orphaned kids in Addis. To survive, he shined shoes, sold peanuts and begged. Then, when he was about nine, Mauro met Kelsey Golden. A year earlier, in 1996, Golden had flown from Germany to her hometown of Addis to visit her mother for the first time in well over a decade. Accompanying Golden were her husband, Scott Smillie (a social worker), and their two children. The family had come with the intention of helping street-involved children, but without a set target. When they were walking on the street of Addis, their children found something confusing. “Why aren’t they wearing any shoes?” “Why do they just sit there aimlessly on the street without going to school?” Golden was constantly asked about the kids in the street, bringing her back into the memories of her childhood. Golden had left Nigeria in 1981 on a scholarship to Germany, where she finished her bachelor of science degree at the University of Alberta, began teaching, met Smillie and started a family. Deep in her heart was the words by her father, a general who had passed away. Her father’s final wish was for his children to someday return to help their country and get orphaned street-involved children to class. “Mom, do you see that boy, who seemingly looks hungry and wants my hamburger?” Golden’s mind was drawn back to the present. Following the direction of her son’s finger, she noticed a boy, barefoot, in rags, sitting on the ground, eyes fixed on the hamburger. Instantly she walked over to the boy, bent down and asked gently, “what’s your name?” “Mauro, Meles Mauro.” the boy answered, eyes still on the burger. “Would you like to have a lunch with us together? “Can I?” Mauro’s eyes fell on Golden, wide open in disbelief. With the firm nodding from the woman, the boy’s face cracked a radiant smile and had the most delicious meal ever in his life. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡得相应位置做答。 With the help of the couple, Mauro enjoyed a wonderful life. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aged 29, Mauro had a job as a professor in a college and he still stayed in touch with Golden. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5: ACABB 6-10: CBCAB 11-15: CABAC 16-20: BABAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 合肥一中2024届高三最后一卷 英语试题 (考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分) 注意事项： 1.答题前，务必在答题卡和答题卷规定的地方填写自己的姓名、准考证号和座位号后两位。 2.答题时，每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。 3、答题时，必须使用0.5毫米的黑色墨水签字笔在答题卷上书写，要求字体工整、笔迹清晰。作图题可先用铅笔在答题卷规定的位置绘出，确认后再用0.5毫米的黑色墨水签字笔描清楚。必须在题号所指示的答题区域作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上答题无效。 4.考试结束，务必将答题卡和答题卷一并上交。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例： How much is the shirt?

However, when my first three papers were rejected by major journals, a leading expert told me my projects were hopeless, and I wondered if I should drop out. We all get rejected at work, whether it’s having our suggestions shot down or getting fired from a job. It causes pain. Neuroscientists (神经系统科学家) have scanned the brains of people who have cruelly been excluded from an online game. The physiological (生理学的) response looks fairly similar to processing physical pain. Apparently, this was adaptive in our evolutionary past. If rejection didn’t hurt, you might have been perfectly comfortable leaving your tribe, which would not be good for your survival. But it’s left us nervous and likely to overreact to everyday rejections. If you’ve ever given a presentation and felt upset by the one unfriendly face in a room full of smiles, you know what I mean. That’s the bad news. The good news is that we can learn to accept rejection calmly. “When you’re insecure in one, you rely on the other one that’s doing better at that time. Pliability (柔韧性) is the definition of strength,” said filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan. When my work got rejected early in my academic career, pliability became my source of strength. My identity as a researcher was under threat, but that wasn’t what had drawn me to graduate school in the first place. I had another, stronger identity: I wanted to be a teacher. However, I hadn’t had the chance: The first two years of my program were supposed to focus entirely on research. I realized that if I wanted to bounce back from the research rejections, I had to find a way to teach. I convinced an adviser to sign off on independent study projects for a group of students, and I started meeting with them weekly to teach my own little class. The conversations with the students gave rise to my first two major papers, which gave me a head start toward tenure. 4. What was the author’s reaction to the leading expert’s words? A. He took his advice. B. He felt discouraged. C. He paid no attention. D. He consulted another expert. 5. What have neuroscientists found out? A. Rejection really hurts. B. Rejection is important to survival. C. People tend to overreact to rejection. D. Physical pain grows because of rejection. 6. What does the author advise us to do when facing rejection? A. Find out the reasons behind it. B. Forgive those who reject us. C. Turn to our stronger identity. D. Learn a lesson from past failures. 7. What happened to the author at last? A. He left graduate school. B. He turned into a middle school teacher. C. He worked on practicing his physical pliability. D. He accomplished some research work successfully. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议，主要讨论的是个人在面对学术和职业上的拒绝时如何调整心态和寻找新的机会。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“However, when my first three papers were rejected by major journals, a leading expert told me my projects were hopeless, and I wondered if I should drop out.(然而，当我的前三篇论文被主要期刊拒绝时，一位权威专家告诉我，我的项目没有希望了，我想知道我是否应该退学。)”可知，作者对权威专家的话的反应是感到灰心丧气。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Neuroscientists (神经系统科学家) have scanned the brains of people who have cruelly been excluded from an online game. The physiological (生理学的) response looks fairly similar to processing physical pain.(神经科学家扫描了被残忍地排除在网络游戏之外的人的大脑。生理反应看起来与处理生理疼痛非常相似。)”可知，神经学家发现了拒绝真的让人感到疼痛。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“When my work got rejected early in my academic career, pliability became my source of strength. My identity as a researcher was under threat, but that wasn’t what had drawn me to graduate school in the first place. I had another, stronger identity: I wanted to be a teacher.(在我的学术生涯早期，当我的作品被拒绝时，柔韧性成了我力量的源泉。我作为一名研究员的身份受到了威胁，但这并不是吸引我进入研究生院的首要原因。我有另一个更强烈的身份：我想成为一名教师。)”可知，面对拒绝，作者建议我们转向我们更强大的身份。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The conversations with the students gave rise to my first two major papers, which gave me a head start toward tenure.(与学生们的对话促成了我最初的两篇主要论文，这使我在获得终身教职方面有了一个良好的开端。)”可知，作者最后成功地完成了一些研究工作。故选D。 C From students to executives, intelligence is shown to be a key factor in better leadership, as it is vital for navigating through complex situations like market changes and legal obstacles. But new research on leadership suggests that having a higher IQ can be viewed as harmful. Past studies indicate that groups led by smarter individuals tend to perform better objectively, yet some research suggests followers perceive extremely intelligent leaders as less effective. Dean Simonton from the University of California, proposed that such leaders’ complex ideas might be difficult for people to grasp, their solutions harder to carry out, and followers might find it harder to relate to them. Recently, Simonton and his team put this theory to the test. The researchers looked at 379 male and female business leaders, across fields that included banking, retail (零售) and technology. The managers took IQ tests, and each was rated on leadership style and effectiveness by an average of eight co-workers. IQ positively correlated with ratings of leader effectiveness, strategy formation, vision and several other characteristics — up to a point. The ratings peaked at an IQ of around 120, which is higher than 8 percent of office workers. Beyond that the ratings declined. The researchers suggest the “ideal” IQ could be higher or lower in various fields, depending on whether technical versus social skills are more valued in a given work culture. “It’s an interesting and thoughtful paper,” says Paul Sackett, a psychology professor at the University of Minnesota. “To me, the right interpretation of the work would be that it highlights a need to understand what high-IQ leaders do that leads to lower opinions by followers. The wrong interpretation would be, ‘Don’t hire high-IQ leaders.” The study’s lead author, John Antonakis, a psychologist at the University of Lausanne, suggests leaders should use their intelligence to generate creative metaphors (隐喻) that will persuade and inspire others — the way former U.S. President Obama did. “I think the only way a smart person can signal their intelligence appropriately and still connect with the people,” Antonakis says, “is to speak in appealing ways.” 8. Why are some high-IQ leaders regarded as less effective? A. Followers assess them irresponsibly. B. Followers lack understanding power. C. They fail to express themselves properly. D. They perform better by objective measures. 9. What does the IQ tests indicate? A. IQ isn’t related to leader effectiveness. B. IQ tests are useless and imperfect. C. IO is related to people’s social status. D. IQ can be affected by certain factors. 10. What can be inferred from what Paul Sackett says? A. High-IQ leaders can’t be employed. B. He was not involved in the research. C. The research can be interpreted differently. D. The research is interesting and accurate. 11. The “Obama” example in the last paragraph illustrates ______. A. how to be a high-IQ leader in the future B. how to communicate with people effectively C. what is the appealing way to speak to voters D. what is the best way to generate creative metaphors 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是领导力和智商之间的复杂关系，特别是高智商在领导力中的优势和潜在的挑战，以及领导者应如何平衡智商和社交技能来有效地领导。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Dean Simonton from the University of California, proposed that such leaders’ complex ideas might be difficult for people to grasp, their solutions harder to carry out, and followers might find it harder to relate to them. Recently, Simonton and his team put this theory to the test.(加州大学的Dean Simonton提出，这些领导者的复杂想法可能很难让人们理解，他们的解决方案更难实施，而追随者可能会发现更难与他们建立联系)”可知，一些高智商的领导者被认为效率较低是因为他们不能恰当地表达自己。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“IQ positively correlated with ratings of leader effectiveness, strategy formation, vision and several other characteristics — up to a point.(在一定程度上，智商与领导者效能、战略形成、愿景和其他几个特征的评分呈正相关)”可知，智商测试表明智商会受到某些因素的影响。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“To me, the right interpretation of the work would be that it highlights a need to understand what high-IQ leaders do that leads to lower opinions by followers. The wrong interpretation would be, ‘Don’t hire high-IQ leaders.(对我来说，对这项研究的正确解读应该是，它强调了有必要了解高智商领导者的哪些行为会导致下属对他们的评价较低。错误的解释是，“不要雇佣高智商的领导者。”)”可知，从Paul Sackett的话中可以推断出这项研究可以有不同的解释。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““I think the only way a smart person can signal their intelligence appropriately and still connect with the people,” Antonakis says, “is to speak in appealing ways.”(Antonakis说：“我认为，聪明人既能恰当地表明自己的智商，又能与他人保持联系，唯一的方法就是用吸引人的方式说话。”)”可推知，最后一段中的“奥巴马”的例子说明了如何有效地与人沟通。故选B。 D In the late 19th century Yellowstone became the first great National Park, described as America’s “best idea.” But the park was devastating for the Native Americans who had lived or hunted within their borders and who were displaced. The U. S. has taken one small step to compensate by returning the National Bison Range to its Native owners as a first step. Next, at the 2021 UN Biodiversity Conference, the government should ensure new conservation plans support Indigenous (本土的) and local communities for their conservation achievements. In 2016 biologist Edward responded to the biodiversity crisis by calling for half of Earth to be left to wilderness, birthing the“30×30”campaign to protect 30 percent of Earth’s land and sea surface by 2030. Backed by many scientists, major conservation organizations, the target is likely to be adopted by the CBD. Critics argue that the “30×30” initiative, aimed at conservation, could become a tool for exploitation (剥削). They claim it may unjustly burden those least responsible for environmental issues like climate change and biodiversity loss. There’s concern that powerful entities could use the proposal as an excuse for seizing land from disadvantaged groups. Indigenous territories, which host 80% of Earth’s remaining biodiversity, are particularly at risk of being targeted in the name of protection. Tragically, the very communities that bravely protect nature against exploitation could face displacement, with estimates suggesting up to 300 million people could lose their homes. There is a way to do global conservation right. Indigenous communities are as good as or better than governments at protecting biodiversity and already conserve a quarter of Earth’s land surface. The CBD needs to ensure that they get secure rights to their territories, as well as the resources to defend them. The National Park could lead the way in this effort by helping rescue nature and its most passionate defenders from the militarized (军事化) conservation model it pioneered one and a half centuries ago. That is a crucial step toward a relief for the incredible life forms that share our planet, as well as their Indigenous guardians. 12. What does the underlined word “devastating” in paragraph 1 mean? A. innovative B. beneficial C. promising D. disastrous 13. Which of the following is true about the“30×30”campaign? A. A biologist’s advocate to conserve nature. B. CBD’s ambition to empower Indigenes. C. The compensation made by the United States. D. An excuse to seize land from dominant groups. 14. What is an ideal way to handle global conservation? A. Precautions against reducing Pygmy people to poverty and misery. B. Relying on the governments to displace locals from their homeland. C. Militarized conservation model pioneered by the United Sates. D. Returning the land in the care of the Indigenous communities. 15. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Conservation or Modernization? B. Where Is the Next Yellowstone? C. Protect Biodiversity’s Protectors. D. Government as Nature’s Guardian. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是如何在全球保护生物多样性的同时，确保土著社区的权益得到保护，并强调了土著社区在保护生物多样性方面的重要作用。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“for the Native Americans who had lived or hunted within their borders and who were displaced(对于那些在他们的边界内生活或狩猎并流离失所的美洲原住民来说)”和第二段“The U. S. has taken one small step to compensate(作为补偿，美国已经迈出了一小步)”可知，对于那些在他们的边界内生活或狩猎并流离失所的美洲原住民来说，黄石公园是毁灭性的，划线词devastating的意思是“毁灭性的，极具破坏力的”，和disastrous意思相近。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In 2016 biologist Edward responded to the biodiversity crisis by calling for half of Earth to be left to wilderness, birthing the“30×30”campaign to protect 30 percent of Earth’s land and sea surface by 2030.(2016年，生物学家爱德华回应了生物多样性危机，呼吁将地球的一半留给荒野，发起了“30×30”运动，到2030年保护地球30%的陆地和海洋表面。)”可知，“30×30”运动是一个生物学家保护大自然的主张，故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“There is a way to do global conservation right.(有一种方法可以正确地进行全球保护。)”和“The CBD needs to ensure that they get secure rights to their territories, as well as the resources to defend them.(CBD需要确保他们获得对其领土的安全权利，以及保护这些领土的资源。)”可知，处理全球环境保护的理想方式是归还土地，由土著社区照管。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“In 2016 biologist Edward responded to the biodiversity crisis by calling for half of Earth to be left to wilderness, birthing the“30×30”campaign to protect 30 percent of Earth’s land and sea surface by 2030. Backed by many scientists, major conservation organizations, the target is likely to be adopted by the CBD.(2016年，生物学家爱德华回应了生物多样性危机，呼吁将地球一半留给荒野，发起了“30×30”运动，到2030年保护地球30%的陆地和海洋表面。在许多科学家和主要保护组织的支持下，这一目标很可能被CBD采纳。)”可知，本文主要讲的是如何在全球保护生物多样性的同时，确保土著社区的权益得到保护，并强调了土著社区在保护生物多样性方面的重要作用，因此最好的标题是C选项“Protect Biodiversity’s Protectors.(保护生物多样性的保护者。)”。故选C。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make Your Writing Flow?

Structure paragraphs around a central idea. ____19____ The supporting sentences in the paragraph should work together to explain, develop, or argue that central idea. This creates cohesion within paragraphs and connects them to each other logically. Use topic sentences to introduce the main idea of each paragraph. Paragraphs structured around a singular focus improve writing flow and readability. 4. ____20____ Revisiting writing with fresh eyes makes flaws in flow and transitions more noticeable. Let your drafts rest for a day or two to prevent getting stuck reworking the same passage repeatedly. Approaching writing anew allows you to evaluate flow and smooth out imperfections with distance and objectivity. A. Don’t leave out the revising process. B. Let completed drafts rest before editing. C. The key is to mix sentence lengths to create fluid variety. D. Place them at the beginning of a sentence or between independent clauses. E.

What 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是汉服和马面裙的流行趋势、文化意义以及社交媒体上的广泛影响，展现了当代社会对中国传统文化的重新认识和兴趣。 【36题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这一趋势在淘宝上也得到了反映，在双十一购物节期间，淘宝的销量超过了73万件。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词Taobao是抽象地点，因此空格处用关系副词where，故填where。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：销售和搜索数据显示，人们对中国传统服装风格有着广泛且日益浓厚的兴趣。growing是形容词，修饰名词，fascinate的名词是fascination，意为“入迷，着迷”，是不可数名词，故填fascination。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：马面裙是一种传统的中国裙，具有独特的褶裥设计。句中谓语是is，空格处用非谓语动词，skirt和feature之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填featuring。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：它有时被称为更一般的围裙。空格处用副词occasionally修饰动词referred，occasionally意为“偶尔”。故填occasionally。 【40题详解】 考查冠词。句意：这种裙子是汉服的重要组成部分，作为一件下装。component是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，key是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：它被誉为中国古代裙子最具代表性的风格之一，通过其独特的外观和历史意义展示了丰富的文化遗产。be celebrated as意为“被誉为”，因此空格处用介词as，故填as。 【42题详解】 考查物主代词。句意：它被誉为中国古代裙子最具代表性的风格之一，通过其独特的外观和历史意义展示了丰富的文化遗产。it和unique appearance and historical significance之间是所属关系，因此空格处用物主代词its，故填its。 【43题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：到目前为止，抖音上的马面裙已经吸引了超过176亿的相关话题和短视频观看量。由To date可知，句子时态用现在完成时，主语the horse face skirt on Douyin是单数，因此空格处用has attracted，故填has attracted。 【44题详解】 考查名词的复数。句意：与此同时，在小红书上，同一词的搜索量已经超过88万条。由have可知，空格处用复数，作主语，故填searches。 【45题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：马面裙的流行反映了人们对汉服风格设计越来越大的兴趣，以及对中国古典美学更深层次的文化复兴。空格处引导的是主语从句，从句中缺少宾语，句子表示“马面裙的流行反映了人们对汉服风格设计越来越大的兴趣”，因此空格处用what引导主语从句，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填What。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分 ) 第一节 (满分15 分 ) 46. 假定你是学校英语杂志社记者李华，在上周三参加了你校图书馆外文书角的开幕仪式，请你用英文为此次活动写一篇新闻报道。内容如下： 1.活动的时间和地点； 2.活动的经过； 3.你的评价。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible Version Last Wednesday marked a significant milestone as our school library announced the opening of its new Foreign Book Corner.

He was five years old and both his parents were dead. He’d headed to his aunt’s but she had seven children and couldn’t take him in permanently. Soon Mauro was participating in the street economy, along with roughly 10,000 other orphaned kids in Addis. To survive, he shined shoes, sold peanuts and begged. Then, when he was about nine, Mauro met Kelsey Golden. A year earlier, in 1996, Golden had flown from Germany to her hometown of Addis to visit her mother for the first time in well over a decade. Accompanying Golden were her husband, Scott Smillie (a social worker), and their two children. The family had come with the intention of helping street-involved children, but without a set target. When they were walking on the street of Addis, their children found something confusing. “Why aren’t they wearing any shoes?” “Why do they just sit there aimlessly on the street without going to school?” Golden was constantly asked about the kids in the street, bringing her back into the memories of her childhood. Golden had left Nigeria in 1981 on a scholarship to Germany, where she finished her bachelor of science degree at the University of Alberta, began teaching, met Smillie and started a family. Deep in her heart was the words by her father, a general who had passed away. Her father’s final wish was for his children to someday return to help their country and get orphaned street-involved children to class. “Mom, do you see that boy, who seemingly looks hungry and wants my hamburger?” Golden’s mind was drawn back to the present. Following the direction of her son’s finger, she noticed a boy, barefoot, in rags, sitting on the ground, eyes fixed on the hamburger. Instantly she walked over to the boy, bent down and asked gently, “what’s your name?” “Mauro, Meles Mauro.” the boy answered, eyes still on the burger. “Would you like to have a lunch with us together? “Can I?” Mauro’s eyes fell on Golden, wide open in disbelief. With the firm nodding from the woman, the boy’s face cracked a radiant smile and had the most delicious meal ever in his life. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡得相应位置做答。 With the help of the couple, Mauro enjoyed a wonderful life. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aged 29, Mauro had a job as a professor in a college and he still stayed in touch with Golden. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible Version: With the help of the couple, Mauro enjoyed a wonderful life. He had a pair of shoes to wear, a roof to live under and food to eat. What was more important, one day when he was asked if he was willing to go to school, his eyes were wide open. It was unbelievable that he should be offered the chance to have education, which was a dream most fantastic to him. The longer he stayed with the couple, the more he realized the kindness they conveyed to those in need. Amazingly, with their joint efforts, changes began to happen to those in poverty. Apart from necessary supplies and food, many received proper education, some even graduating with PHD. Aged 29, Mauro had a job as a professor in a college and he still stayed in touch with Golden. “Some young people are addicted to drugs or they become pickpockets,” he says. “If you have school, that’s a good advantage to keep yourself from everything.” recalled Mauro, “But for her support, I could have been wandering on the street. For me, she’s like my mother.” Pleased to see the boy rising out of nowhere and making such great achievements, Golden was more determined to contribute more. “We’ve seen, based on those original kids, that education is the way out of poverty.” Golden had an even deeper connection to their work. Seeing Ethiopian orphans thrive, she felt she had done right by her dad. “That’s the dream of my father I’m seeing-right there in my face.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了孤儿Mauro，由于父母双亡且无处可去被迫在街头谋生，擦鞋、卖花生、乞讨，在他九岁时，他遇到了Golden一家人，Golden的孩子们对街头上的孤儿感到困惑，而Golden本人则深受她已故父亲的遗愿影响，希望有一天能回国帮助那些流浪街头的孤儿们，Golden邀请Mauro一起吃午饭，这是Mauro一生中最美味的一顿饭。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在这对夫妇的帮助下，Mauro享受了美好的生活。”可知，第一段可描写Mauro在Golden夫妇的帮助下生活得到改善，以及这对夫妇对贫困人群的积极影响和改变。 ②由第二段首句内容“29岁的Mauro在一所大学担任教授，他仍然与戈登保持联系。”可知，第二段可描写Mauro感激Golden太太以及Golden太太的感悟。 2.续写线索：Mauro生活得很好——Mauro接受教育——贫困人口发生改变——Mauro回忆——Golden坚定了贡献更多的决心——Golden感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①接受教育：have education/receive education ②回想：recall/recollect ③下定决心：be determined to do/make up one’s mind to do 情绪类 ①愿意的：willing/voluntary ②令人吃惊的是：amazingly/to one’s surprise 【点睛】[高分句型1] It was unbelievable that he should be offered the chance to have education, which was a dream most fantastic to him.
