A 15m sperm whale (抹香鲸) beached itself in shallow (浅的) waters over the weekend because of ill health. Beachgoers were excited about the giant whale swimming so close to the shore, with many filming the experience as swimmers went right up to it to take a closer look. One person said the whale looked “happy” as it came close to the shore before moving back to deeper water. While local swimmers were excited to see the whale, they risked their own safety and could have made the whale feel upset and anxious by swimming so close to it.
“I think it’s protecting itself from any hunters, positioning itself in a way that we might expect in an animal who’s not well and needs to rest,” said Mark Cugley, who studies whales. “It became grounded on shallow sandbars, and it would swim off again. Then it would get grounded again. That’s why we need to fully assess (评估) its health.” Mr. Cugley said experts had examined the whale and it appeared to be unwell.
Sperm whales usually live far offshore and hardly ever come into shallow water. Lone whales often beach themselves when they are sick, injured or old and are looking for shallow waters to rest, according to whales. org. But without deep water to support their weight, whales can become badly injured inside their bodies and could die at sea if humans attempted to rescue them by moving them back into deeper waters.
Authorities were deciding on the best way to kill the animal humanely in the coming days, if need be, in line with requirements of the International Whaling Convention. In the meantime, authorities would continue to pour water on the whale to keep it wet and comfortable and stop it getting hurt from the summer sun.
4. Why did the sperm whale swim to shallow waters?
A. It was in bad health. B. It was attacked by swimmers.
C. It was busy hunting. D. It was frightened by beachgoers.
5. What does the author think of local swimmers’ action?
A. It is interesting. B. It is safe. C. It is meaningful. D. It is risky.
6. How did Cugley probably feel about the sperm whale?
A. Uncaring. B. Concerned. C. Helpless. D. Surprised.
7. What can we know about beached whales from paragraph 3?
A. They want to build a better home. B. They run into trouble due to humans.
C Their lives will be put in danger. D. Their bodies can support their weight.
C
A shocking eruption has ended Iceland’s lengthy volcano warning as a flash of light burst across the evening sky and the lava (岩浆) flowed out quickly in a breathtaking show of the Earth’s power. But the eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula, about 50km southwest of the capital, Reykjavik, wasn’t expected to give out large amounts of ash (灰尘) into the air.
By early Tuesday afternoon, the size of the volcanic eruption continued to diminish. The lava flow, which reached as high as 30m, was also falling and was a quarter of what it was at the time of the eruption.
The November evacuation meant few people were near the site of the eruption and authorities had warned others to stay away. Nonetheless, residents of the evacuated fishing community had mixed emotions as they watched orange flames touch the dark sky. More than a month after the evacuation, many were still living in temporary (临时的) accommodations and did not expect to ever be able to return to live in their homes. “The town might end up under the lava,” said Ael Kermarec, a tourist. “It’s amazing to see, but there’s kind of a bittersweet feeling at the moment.”
University of Bristol Professor Matthew Watson said that the eruption was expected to continue getting weak, but he had no idea how long it could last. “Residents should strictly follow travel advice because new eruptions can quickly put people in harm’s way. This style of eruption is among the most impressive ever seen, and there will be a strong pull for tourists and locals,” Watson said. “It’s just something from a movie.”
Residents were evacuated and a state of emergency was announced in Iceland more than a month ago. However, the uneasy waiting game still continues.
8. Which of the following best explains “diminish” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Keep growing. B. Be destroyed.
C. Get dangerous. D. Become smaller.
9. What did Kermarec want to say?
A. He couldn’t see the breathtaking show. B. He forgot to share the feeling online.
C. He was worried about the town. D. He wasn’t ready for a new life.
10. What can we infer about the eruption from Watson’s words?
A. It may draw people to the site. B. It will threaten wildlife.
C. It attracts many movie lovers. D. It drives tourists to leave.
11. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Playing games is an approach to killing time.
B. It will be a long time before the disaster ends.
C. Local residents will return home in one month.
D. Authorities should announce a warning early.
D
Two authors, Kylen Ribeiro and Michelle Zofrea, have written a children’s book Henry’s Tech-Free Trip to explore why parents want kids to limit screen time.
The authors said they have seen many news stories and studies in recent years warning parents about monitoring (监视) both the quality of the content and the amount of time their kids spent with tablets, phones and smart watches. But they didn’t see any books that were written for kids on the topic.
“We hope that it will help kids connect the topic,” Zofrea said. She said it reminded her that her mother warned her not to overdo it on Halloween candy. She didn’t follow the advice and wolfed down all her treat and felt sick later. “Like with food, we can set rules and lecture kids. It’ll be more effective if they start to notice how they feel,” Zofrea said.
The authors both work for DefenderShield, a Tampa-based company that sells products to block electromagnetic field radiation (电磁辐射) from laptops, cell phones and tablets. Their work there is what inspired the book, though they know it can be a heated topic because of the debate over the science of radiation’s effects.
While concerns are rising about the amount of time kids spend online, parents always remain on their phones at home. “I’ve always said children learn from what we do and not what we say,” said Pam Patranella, a doctor who reviewed the book and liked the idea of taking the screen time lesson to kids.
The book’s authors said parents need to be reminded that their kids have grown up in a different world, one that has had computers and tablets since the day they were born. “We want to bring up the concept (观念) of digital wellness for families and children,” Ribeiro said.
12. Why did Zofrea mention Halloween candy?
A. To express thanks to her mother. B. To explain that awareness matters.
C. To tell kids to have sugar-free food. D. To show the meaning of the festival
13. The fourth paragraph of the text is mainly about ________.
A. what may catch people’s attention online
B. what inspires scientists to design phones
C. what radiation’s effects mean for children
D. what leads the authors to write the book
14. What does Patranella probably advise parents to do?
A. Put effort into reading. B. Pick up phones at home.
C. Act as a role model. D. Talk to kids patiently.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Kids’ Screen Time B. A Connected World
C. Parents’ Concept D. A Digital Course

Understand that your choices are never completely “right” or “wrong”. You should focus less on regretting “bad decisions” and more on how to make your choices. Look for the positive For example, if you move to a new city and don’t love it right away, you shouldn’t regret your decision to move. ____20____ Maybe there are different people to meet and befriend, or closer public parks to enjoy.
A. Plan your work carefully.
B. Sports could make a difference.
C. Avoid comparing yourself with others.
D. You can question that before following it.
E. Now let’s take a quick look at Ellen’s advice.

One afternoon after school, Mary and her brother, Keith, were eating at a cafe near their home. That afternoon, they had to share their table with another person. That person was a young lady in her twenties. After eating, she went to the restroom. Without realizing, she had left her cellphone on the table. Five minutes later, she came out and walked out of the cafe without looking back.
Mary saw the cellphone on the table. She quickly told Keith, “Keith, the girl left behind her cellphone.”Keith looked at the cellphone. It took his breath away. It was one of the latest models on the market. Keith had always wanted a cellphone. But his parents had told him, “You don’t need one. You can always use the house phone.” He stared at it for some minutes. Then, he said slowly, pausing on every word, “I want to take the cellphone.” Mary could not believe her ears. She only stared at her brother, “You can’t! What if the owner comes to look for it?”
After making the decision, Keith quickly got the cellphone and put it in his schoolbag. Then, he took Mary’s hand and led her out of the cafe quickly.
Once back home, Keith locked his room door with trembling (颤抖的) hands. Inside his room, he took out the piece of beauty. Oh, he liked it so much. He had his own cellphone. Soon, he was polishing it happily. But Mary told him, “Keith, you cannot keep the cellphone. What will you tell our father about this? He will ask you how you got the cellphone.” Keith said quickly, “I will say a friend lent it to me.” Mary said, “Now you are lying too. Oh dear! When had Keith turned so dishonest?”
Then, Mary saw a house phone number on the cover of the cellphone. “This is the girl’s phone number. Why don’t we just call this number? We will talk to her and ask her to come and take back her cellphone,” she was trying to talk some sense into him.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

That night, Keith turned over in bed from time to time.

A 15m sperm whale (抹香鲸) beached itself in shallow (浅的) waters over the weekend because of ill health. Beachgoers were excited about the giant whale swimming so close to the shore, with many filming the experience as swimmers went right up to it to take a closer look. One person said the whale looked “happy” as it came close to the shore before moving back to deeper water. While local swimmers were excited to see the whale, they risked their own safety and could have made the whale feel upset and anxious by swimming so close to it.
“I think it’s protecting itself from any hunters, positioning itself in a way that we might expect in an animal who’s not well and needs to rest,” said Mark Cugley, who studies whales. “It became grounded on shallow sandbars, and it would swim off again. Then it would get grounded again. That’s why we need to fully assess (评估) its health.” Mr. Cugley said experts had examined the whale and it appeared to be unwell.
Sperm whales usually live far offshore and hardly ever come into shallow water. Lone whales often beach themselves when they are sick, injured or old and are looking for shallow waters to rest, according to whales. org. But without deep water to support their weight, whales can become badly injured inside their bodies and could die at sea if humans attempted to rescue them by moving them back into deeper waters.
Authorities were deciding on the best way to kill the animal humanely in the coming days, if need be, in line with requirements of the International Whaling Convention. In the meantime, authorities would continue to pour water on the whale to keep it wet and comfortable and stop it getting hurt from the summer sun.
4. Why did the sperm whale swim to shallow waters?
A. It was in bad health. B. It was attacked by swimmers.
C. It was busy hunting. D. It was frightened by beachgoers.
5. What does the author think of local swimmers’ action?
A. It is interesting. B. It is safe. C. It is meaningful. D. It is risky.
6. How did Cugley probably feel about the sperm whale?
A. Uncaring. B. Concerned. C. Helpless. D. Surprised.
7. What can we know about beached whales from paragraph 3?
A. They want to build a better home. B. They run into trouble due to humans.
C. Their lives will be put in danger. D. Their bodies can support their weight.

A shocking eruption has ended Iceland’s lengthy volcano warning as a flash of light burst across the evening sky and the lava (岩浆) flowed out quickly in a breathtaking show of the Earth’s power. But the eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula, about 50km southwest of the capital, Reykjavik, wasn’t expected to give out large amounts of ash (灰尘) into the air.
By early Tuesday afternoon, the size of the volcanic eruption continued to diminish. The lava flow, which reached as high as 30m, was also falling and was a quarter of what it was at the time of the eruption.
The November evacuation meant few people were near the site of the eruption and authorities had warned others to stay away. Nonetheless, residents of the evacuated fishing community had mixed emotions as they watched orange flames touch the dark sky. More than a month after the evacuation, many were still living in temporary (临时的) accommodations and did not expect to ever be able to return to live in their homes. “The town might end up under the lava,” said Ael Kermarec, a tourist. “It’s amazing to see, but there’s kind of a bittersweet feeling at the moment.”
University of Bristol Professor Matthew Watson said that the eruption was expected to continue getting weak, but he had no idea how long it could last. “Residents should strictly follow travel advice because new eruptions can quickly put people in harm’s way. This style of eruption is among the most impressive ever seen, and there will be a strong pull for tourists and locals,” Watson said. “It’s just something from a movie.”
Residents were evacuated and a state of emergency was announced in Iceland more than a month ago. However, the uneasy waiting game still continues.
8. Which of the following best explains “diminish” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Keep growing. B. Be destroyed.
C. Get dangerous. D. Become smaller.
9. What did Kermarec want to say?
A. He couldn’t see the breathtaking show. B. He forgot to share the feeling online.
C. He was worried about the town. D. He wasn’t ready for a new life.
10. What can we infer about the eruption from Watson’s words?
A. It may draw people to the site. B. It will threaten wildlife.
C. It attracts many movie lovers. D. It drives tourists to leave.
11. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Playing games is an approach to killing time.
B. It will be a long time before the disaster ends.
C. Local residents will return home in one month.
D. Authorities should announce a warning early.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B

Two authors, Kylen Ribeiro and Michelle Zofrea, have written a children’s book Henry’s Tech-Free Trip to explore why parents want kids to limit screen time.
The authors said they have seen many news stories and studies in recent years warning parents about monitoring (监视) both the quality of the content and the amount of time their kids spent with tablets, phones and smart watches. But they didn’t see any books that were written for kids on the topic.
“We hope that it will help kids connect the topic,” Zofrea said. She said it reminded her that her mother warned her not to overdo it on Halloween candy. She didn’t follow the advice and wolfed down all her treat and felt sick later. “Like with food, we can set rules and lecture kids. It’ll be more effective if they start to notice how they feel,” Zofrea said.
The authors both work for DefenderShield, a Tampa-based company that sells products to block electromagnetic field radiation (电磁辐射) from laptops, cell phones and tablets. Their work there is what inspired the book, though they know it can be a heated topic because of the debate over the science of radiation’s effects.
While concerns are rising about the amount of time kids spend online, parents always remain on their phones at home. “I’ve always said children learn from what we do and not what we say,” said Pam Patranella, a doctor who reviewed the book and liked the idea of taking the screen time lesson to kids.
The book’s authors said parents need to be reminded that their kids have grown up in a different world, one that has had computers and tablets since the day they were born. “We want to bring up the concept (观念) of digital wellness for families and children,” Ribeiro said.
12. Why did Zofrea mention Halloween candy?
A. To express thanks to her mother. B. To explain that awareness matters.
C. To tell kids to have sugar-free food. D. To show the meaning of the festival
13. The fourth paragraph of the text is mainly about ________.
A. what may catch people’s attention online
B. what inspires scientists to design phones
C. what radiation’s effects mean for children
D. what leads the authors to write the book
14. What does Patranella probably advise parents to do?
A. Put effort into reading. B. Pick up phones at home.
C. Act as a role model. D. Talk to kids patiently.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Kids’ Screen Time B. A Connected World
C. Parents’ Concept D. A Digital Course
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】

So, for example, the expert tells you that being one point above the threshold (阈值) for high cholesterol (胆固醇) requires a complete change of diet. ____17____ After all, there is little real difference between someone one point above versus one point below the threshold, and that reading may change one day to the next.
Recognize what counts as “risky” is different from person to person. ____18____ It makes sense to them in the moment based on their self-knowledge. So, for example, backcountry skiing may seem risky to you, but it could be great fun and adventurous for someone else.
____19____ This is never good for our health. Instead of achieving something related to others, focus on finding meaning in what you’re doing. For example, most people think taking care of the elderly can be boring or stressful. But when you do it out of love, it can give you a feeling of pleasure.
Understand that your choices are never completely “right” or “wrong”. You should focus less on regretting “bad decisions” and more on how to make your choices. Look for the positive For example, if you move to a new city and don’t love it right away, you shouldn’t regret your decision to move. ____20____ Maybe there are different people to meet and befriend, or closer public parks to enjoy.
A. Plan your work carefully.
B. Sports could make a difference.
C. Avoid comparing yourself with others.

【20题详解】
根据上文“你应该少关注于后悔“错误的决定”,多关注于如何做出选择。例如,如果你搬到一个新的城市,并没有马上喜欢上它,你不应该后悔你的决定。You should focus less on regretting “bad decisions” and more on how to make your choices.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One afternoon after school, Mary and her brother, Keith, were eating at a cafe near their home. That afternoon, they had to share their table with another person. That person was a young lady in her twenties. After eating, she went to the restroom. Without realizing, she had left her cellphone on the table. Five minutes later, she came out and walked out of the cafe without looking back.
Mary saw the cellphone on the table. She quickly told Keith, “Keith, the girl left behind her cellphone.”Keith looked at the cellphone. It took his breath away. It was one of the latest models on the market. Keith had always wanted a cellphone. But his parents had told him, “You don’t need one. You can always use the house phone.” He stared at it for some minutes. Then, he said slowly, pausing on every word, “I want to take the cellphone.” Mary could not believe her ears. She only stared at her brother, “You can’t! What if the owner comes to look for it?”
After making the decision, Keith quickly got the cellphone and put it in his schoolbag. Then, he took Mary’s hand and led her out of the cafe quickly.
Once back home, Keith locked his room door with trembling (颤抖的) hands. Inside his room, he took out the piece of beauty. Oh, he liked it so much. He had his own cellphone. Soon, he was polishing it happily. But Mary told him, “Keith, you cannot keep the cellphone. What will you tell our father about this? He will ask you how you got the cellphone.” Keith said quickly, “I will say a friend lent it to me.” Mary said, “Now you are lying too. Oh dear! When had Keith turned so dishonest?”
Then, Mary saw a house phone number on the cover of the cellphone. “This is the girl’s phone number. Why don’t we just call this number? We will talk to her and ask her to come and take back her cellphone,” she was trying to talk some sense into him.

【答案】One possible version:
That night, Keith turned over in bed from time to time. He had difficulty sleeping, uncertain about what he should do. Of course, he liked the new cellphone. However, he was feeling sorry for the owner. When he thought how sad the young lady would be at the loss of her cellphone, he was full of guilt and shame. The next morning, after a long and restless night, he was determined to return the cellphone to the owner. After school, he told Mary, “I am going to phone the owner.”
Mary was very happy to hear that. Back home, they phoned the owner’s house phone. A girl answered the phone. Kevin asked, “Are you the owner of the cellphone? I’m Keith. I have your cellphone. Can you come and get it?” The girl replied “Yes” excitedly, expressing her gratitude repeatedly. Ten minutes later, she was at the same cafe to meet Keith. Handing back the cellphone to her and seeing her smile happily, Keith realized that honesty was indeed the best policy.
