My brother Mike started the family custom of moving in with Granny Kerns during our high school years. I lived with her all through my senior year. She lives very close to the school, so I’d come over and eat lunch with her. On game days, I’d come over and take a nap from about four o’clock to seven-thirty, since game time was eight o’clock. I’d just go there, lie on the floor and go to sleep. Granny would come in at seven-thirty and say, “You’d better get up. You'll be playing in half an hour.” We used to shoot free throws every morning at six o'clock. One day I just wanted to sleep in. Granny woke me up and said, “Larry, those other boys are down there. You should be down there with them.” I got up and went to free throw practice. Mark and I would be at Granny's for supper and later on, just before it was time to go to bed, Mark would say, “Mmm, some popcorn would taste good right now. Larry, what would you think about some popcorn?” Granny wouldn’t say a thing. But the next thing you knew, she’d have that pan out and you’d hear that popping sound in the kitchen. We started moving in with her because we just didn’t have enough room. It was always a problem. After Mike started it, Mark did it for a while and then me. Later on, Eddie used to eat lunch there every day. Granny was proud of all her grandkids. Oh, she read everything about me she could get her hands on and she knew I’d signed contracts (合同) for big money, but she never discussed it. None of us got special treatment. Granny loved all of us and that's the way it should be. I’d have given her anything, but what she really wanted was security. Granny just wanted to know she had enough to get by. She always told me one thing, “I’m not afraid to die. When I get old and can’t do it anymore, I'm not going to be afraid to die.” That showed me a lot. Unfortunately, Granny passed away while I was writing this, so she was never able to see that I dedicated (献给) my book to her. 4. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Both Mike and the author were lazy and playful. B. Granny always had a nice way of handling things. C. The author preferred sleeping to playing basketball. D. Granny was good at controlling her grandchildren's life. 5. According to the passage, which words can best describe Granny Lizzie Kerns? A. Strict and tough. B. Determined and fair. C. Loving and considerate. D. Optimistic and tolerant. 6. Why did Granny never mention the author’s success at home? A. She didn’t take pride in the author's success. B. She was trying to treat all grandchildren equally. C. She didn’t know the author had made a good fortune. D. She was afraid that the author would be too proud of himself. 7. Why did the author feel regretful when writing the book? A. Granny didn’t know he wrote a book. B. Granny didn’t know how much she meant to him. C. Granny died and couldn’t take care of him any more. D. Granny couldn’t read the book written in honor of her. C With egg shortages already a familiar sight on supermarket shelves, farmers are warning that vegetables and grains could be next, because environmental plans take out large areas of land that are used for food production. Stephen Holt, who owns 670 acres in Northamptonshire, said farmers were being incentivized (刺激) by the government subsidy to reduce food production in favour of wildlife. He has signed up to an environmental plan which is being carried out in England under the concept of “public money for public goods”. “Instead of 1,300 tonnes of product, we will produce 900 tonnes of product from our farm,” Holt said. Under the new plan, his input costs will be reduced and he will be paid a guaranteed (有保证的) sum. “In my view, the huge danger is that there will be a serious decrease in agricultural output,” he said. “We are not helping but we can't have the whole food system of the UK on our shoulders, because everyone has to act in their individual best interests.” James Williams, who farms in Oxfordshire, said the environmental plans will reduce the risks in his farm business and that he will not be affected by the weather and international markets. “It does mean that we will be taking perhaps 30 per cent of our wheat land out of production for a season or two, or more,” he said. “What has not been mentioned is that if some disaster fell and our imports were disrupted (扰乱), growing wheat to produce bread could not be turned on like a tap. It will take several years and a significant increase in prices to get production back up to today’s levels.” The UK produces about 60 per cent of its food consumption, including the majority of grains, meat, dairy and eggs. However, seasonal labour shortages have led many British farm businesses to reduce their production by as much as 20-30 per cent since 2020. Egg production has dropped to its lowest level in nine years. Liz Webster, a farmer in north Wiltshire, said, “There just doesn't seem to be any thought or concern for food security and food supply. They’ve just left it up to the supermarkets.” The farmers’ concerns include imported food produced in countries with lower welfare (福利) standards, and labelling of food origins. “These imports are packaged here, and if they’re packaged or processed here they can have a British flag, which is absolutely dishonest,” Webster said. 8. The word “subsidy” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______. A. ban B. warning C. permission D. award 9. What can we learn from paragraph 5? A. Reducing wheat production may cause negative impacts. B. The environmental plans can improve the farm business. C. The international markets will affect the farmers' interests. D. A recovery in wheat production will come soon after disruption. 10. What is Liz Webster’s opinion on food safety? A. Supermarkets are responsible for food safety. B. The safety of imported food cannot be guaranteed. C. A British flag on food package ensures food safety. D. Food safety and supply issues have been addressed. 11. What is the main idea of this article? A. Seasonal labour is in short supply. B. Imported food prices are on the rise. C. Farmers fear food shortage caused by green plans. D. Government worries about the slow agricultural development. D Dror Angel, an ecologist, had for years heard his archaeologist (考古学家) colleagues talk about ancient shipwrecks on the bottom of the Black Sea that were perfectly preserved by the low-oxygen environment. “You can see ropes,” Angel says. “It’s something which is quite amazing.” Now, Angel wants to fight climate change by purposefully adding to the wreckage (残骸) , sinking waste wood to the sea floor, where carbon that the trees stored up can remain locked away for centuries. Angel is a scientist for a company that could help limit global warming by drawing carbon out of the atmosphere and locking it up. However, some carbon capture (捕获) strategies require expensive machines and complex chemistry, burying waste wood at sea is extremely simple: All it takes are tugboats and woody waste from forestry and agriculture. The approach has advantages over another popular ocean-based carbon capture strategy: growing massive amounts of seaweed. Because the plant material is grown on land rather than in the ocean, it is less likely to rob nutrients from the surrounding water and upset the ecology. Industrial agriculture and forestry could grow, process, and transport plants, in contrast to marine farming, which has never been attempted at scale. And because woody plants are tough and unlikely to break down, they are good at hanging on to their carbon. At the same time, the approach may fall short of what’s needed to fight climate change. To keep global warming below 2°C, the world needs to capture and store about 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide per year by midcentury. But waste wood can be sunk only where supplies of it are located near suitable bodies of water. By one recent study, the approach could lock a few tens of billions of tons of carbon dioxide in total — just a little of the need. “This approach is not going to solve the full problem,” says ocean engineer Kate Moran. “It’s going to be a small piece of the pie if it is considered to be more beneficial than risky.” But the urgency of carbon removal demands that every possible approach be explored thoroughly, she adds, “Anyway, we need all the tools in the toolbox.” 12. Why did the author cite “You can see ropes” in paragraph 1? A. Angel dropped the ropes into the deep sea for experiment. B. Things can be well preserved in the low-oxygen environment. C. Carbon that the ropes stored up can be locked away for a long time. D. Angel’s archaeologist colleagues were studying the deep sea environment. 13. Why is the approach of sinking waste wood better than that of growing seaweed? A. It is supported by mature techniques. B. It requires cheap machines and simple chemistry. C. Woody plants are more environmentally friendly. D. Waste wood takes in lots of carbon from the surroundings. 14. What message does paragraph 4 convey? A. The strategy alone isn’t enough to fight climate change. B. The strategy can capture and lock the carbon dioxide needed. C The global warming can’t be kept below 2°C with the strategy. D. Supplies of waste wood are available near suitable bodies of water. 15. What is Kate Moran’s attitude toward the strategy according to the last paragraph? A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Unconcerned. 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自处的最住选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One thing you’ll probably notice about being a teenager is that your body isn’t completely used to the changes. In fact, the changes in your brain don't completely settle in most people until their mid-20s. Your body changes in many ways and most of these changes are brought about because of chemicals released in the body. ____16____ This can be unsettling, as anything happening beyond your control can be. First, take the moment when no one is talking to you to think about your breathing. By asking that step back from how you’re feeling and examining why you’re feeling it, it is easier to process these emotions. If you’re feeling awkward and embarrassed at school, the easiest thing to do is to ride that emotional wave even if it means a private release of emotions. ____17____ Fortunately, this isn’t the only way. A mindful approach can be one of the best tools you have. When your mind feels more settled, allow one of the emotions to approach you . ____18____ If you are feeling stable, perhaps consider why you are feeling it, reminding yourself of the situation — your brain is changing. You’re in a stressful situation, and your body is full of new chemical levels that are creating a mess. ____19____ You can process it later, when you’re at home, or somewhere more peaceful. Now, you’ve let it go! It doesn’t need to be a part of you, or control any part of you right now. This can be a very hard trick to master, because your brain is used to being affected by the emotion, and you’re trying to change course now, ____20____ Even by practicing, you’re acknowledging to yourself that you want to be in control, and that’s the most important first step. A. Don’t be depressed if it takes practice. B. Admit what it is, but don’t be controlled by it. C. As you focus on the present try focusing on your breathing. D. Having a sincere conversation with yourself is also a good idea. E. Letting your tears flow can be a useful and mindful activity. F. If, after all that, you still feel a need to blame yourself, simply let the emotion go. G. This means your emotions can be unstable, making your mood change suddenly. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题: 每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A. B. C.

Still nothing from my 13-year-old granddaughter, Noe Why won’t she return my text messages? I wondered. Noe was my grandchild. For years, Noe and her family lived close by and she and I spent a lot of time together. It made my day to see Noe’s face light up whenever I arrived. Then my husband and I moved to a different part. Actually it wasn’t an impossible distance. But with traffic it now took up to two hours to drive to Noe’s house. So, my regular visits with Noe came to a sudden end. The last time I saw her, she was excited about the latest addition to her life: Golden, a puppy (小狗). Golden was just like her name, a fluffy (毛茸茸的) ball of bright yellow down. For a while, Noe and I kept in touch via text messages and phone cells. Gradually, her text replies took longer to arrive. Phone calls became brief. “How’s school going?” “Okay.” “What’s your favorite subject?” “Dunno.” Nothing I tried seemed to break through Noe’s sudden wall of indifference (漠不关心), Was she okay? Did she even miss me? I asked about Golden every time we talked. But caring for Golden seemed more interesting to her than talking to me. She was often busy with him and didn’t come to the phone when I called. Was I being replaced by the puppy? My cell phone rang. Noe! But there were no words in the text. Just photos. Noe on her bike with Golden on her lap. Noe and Golden walking on the street with a shining leash(狗绳) in hand. Obviously, it was carefully selected. I don’t want to be jealous (嫉妒的) of a puppy. Months passed with seldom a word from Noe. At last, I couldn’t wait. I decided to pay a visit to Noe’s house. Upon my arrival, I said to Noe, “show me your puppy.” She was stunned (惊呆) but quickly led me to the backyard and introduced me to her fluffy friend, giving detailed descriptions of his preferences. It was more words than we’d exchanged in a year, 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。 Then, Noe asked me whether we could walk Golden together. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We understood each other better after much conversation and now it’s time to say goodbye. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 BACAA 6-10 CBCAC 11-15 ABBCC 16-20 CBABA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 南京市鼓楼区2023~2024高一(下)期中试卷 英语 2024. 04.22 第一部 分听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，请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.

My brother Mike started the family custom of moving in with Granny Kerns during our high school years. I lived with her all through my senior year. She lives very close to the school, so I’d come over and eat lunch with her. On game days, I’d come over and take a nap from about four o’clock to seven-thirty, since game time was eight o’clock. I’d just go there, lie on the floor and go to sleep. Granny would come in at seven-thirty and say, “You’d better get up. You'll be playing in half an hour.” We used to shoot free throws every morning at six o'clock. One day I just wanted to sleep in. Granny woke me up and said, “Larry, those other boys are down there. You should be down there with them.” I got up and went to free throw practice. Mark and I would be at Granny's for supper and later on, just before it was time to go to bed, Mark would say, “Mmm, some popcorn would taste good right now. Larry, what would you think about some popcorn?” Granny wouldn’t say a thing. But the next thing you knew, she’d have that pan out and you’d hear that popping sound in the kitchen. We started moving in with her because we just didn’t have enough room. It was always a problem. After Mike started it, Mark did it for a while and then me. Later on, Eddie used to eat lunch there every day. Granny was proud of all her grandkids. Oh, she read everything about me she could get her hands on and she knew I’d signed contracts (合同) for big money, but she never discussed it. None of us got special treatment. Granny loved all of us and that's the way it should be. I’d have given her anything, but what she really wanted was security. Granny just wanted to know she had enough to get by. She always told me one thing, “I’m not afraid to die. When I get old and can’t do it anymore, I'm not going to be afraid to die.” That showed me a lot. Unfortunately, Granny passed away while I was writing this, so she was never able to see that I dedicated (献给) my book to her. 4. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Both Mike and the author were lazy and playful. B. Granny always had a nice way of handling things. C. The author preferred sleeping to playing basketball. D. Granny was good at controlling her grandchildren's life. 5. According to the passage, which words can best describe Granny Lizzie Kerns? A. Strict and tough. B. Determined and fair. C. Loving and considerate. D. Optimistic and tolerant. 6. Why did Granny never mention the author’s success at home? A. She didn’t take pride in the author's success. B. She was trying to treat all grandchildren equally. C. She didn’t know the author had made a good fortune. D. She was afraid that the author would be too proud of himself. 7. Why did the author feel regretful when writing the book? A. Granny didn’t know he wrote a book. B. Granny didn’t know how much she meant to him. C. Granny died and couldn’t take care of him any more. D. Granny couldn’t read the book written in honor of her. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者对他的祖母Lizzie Kerns的深深的怀念和对她的影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Granny would come in at seven-thirty and say, “You’d better get up. You'll be playing in half an hour.” We used to shoot free throws every morning at six o'clock. One day I just wanted to sleep in. Granny woke me up and said, “Larry, those other boys are down there. You should be down there with them.” I got up and went to free throw practice.”（ 奶奶会在七点半进来说：“你最好起床。半小时后你就要上场了。”我们以前每天早上六点罚球。有一天，我只想睡懒觉。奶奶把我叫醒，说：“拉里，其他男孩在下面。你应该和他们在一起。”我起床去练习罚球。）可知，祖母总是以一种很好的方式处理事情，故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Granny wouldn’t say a thing. But the next thing you knew, she’d have that pan out and you’d hear that popping sound in the kitchen.”（奶奶什么也没说。但接下来，她就会把锅拿出来然后你就会听到厨房里的爆米花的爆裂声。）根据第五段“Granny loved all of us”（奶奶爱我们所有人）可推知，祖母是一个充满爱心和体贴的人，故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“She knew I’d signed contracts (合同) for big money, but she never discussed it. None of us got special treatment.”（她知道我签了一大笔钱的合同，但她从不讨论这个。我们都没有得到特殊待遇。）可推知，为什么祖母在家里从不提作者的成功是因为祖母试图平等地对待所有的孙子，故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Unfortunately, Granny passed away while I was writing this, so she was never able to see that I dedicated (献给) my book to her.”（不幸的是，当我写这本书的时候，祖母去世了，所以她从未看到我写给她的书。）可知，作者感到遗憾的是祖母不能看到他为她写的书，故选D。 C With egg shortages already a familiar sight on supermarket shelves, farmers are warning that vegetables and grains could be next, because environmental plans take out large areas of land that are used for food production. Stephen Holt, who owns 670 acres in Northamptonshire, said farmers were being incentivized (刺激) by the government subsidy to reduce food production in favour of wildlife. He has signed up to an environmental plan which is being carried out in England under the concept of “public money for public goods”. “Instead of 1,300 tonnes of product, we will produce 900 tonnes of product from our farm,” Holt said. Under the new plan, his input costs will be reduced and he will be paid a guaranteed (有保证的) sum. “In my view, the huge danger is that there will be a serious decrease in agricultural output,” he said. “We are not helping but we can't have the whole food system of the UK on our shoulders, because everyone has to act in their individual best interests.” James Williams, who farms in Oxfordshire, said the environmental plans will reduce the risks in his farm business and that he will not be affected by the weather and international markets. “It does mean that we will be taking perhaps 30 per cent of our wheat land out of production for a season or two, or more,” he said. “What has not been mentioned is that if some disaster fell and our imports were disrupted (扰乱), growing wheat to produce bread could not be turned on like a tap. It will take several years and a significant increase in prices to get production back up to today’s levels.” The UK produces about 60 per cent of its food consumption, including the majority of grains, meat, dairy and eggs. However, seasonal labour shortages have led many British farm businesses to reduce their production by as much as 20-30 per cent since 2020. Egg production has dropped to its lowest level in nine years. Liz Webster, a farmer in north Wiltshire, said, “There just doesn't seem to be any thought or concern for food security and food supply. They’ve just left it up to the supermarkets.” The farmers’ concerns include imported food produced in countries with lower welfare (福利) standards, and labelling of food origins. “These imports are packaged here, and if they’re packaged or processed here they can have a British flag, which is absolutely dishonest,” Webster said. 8. The word “subsidy” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______. A. ban B. warning C. permission D. award 9. What can we learn from paragraph 5? A. Reducing wheat production may cause negative impacts. B. The environmental plans can improve the farm business. C. The international markets will affect the farmers' interests. D. A recovery in wheat production will come soon after disruption. 10. What is Liz Webster’s opinion on food safety? A. Supermarkets are responsible for food safety. B. The safety of imported food cannot be guaranteed. C. A British flag on food package ensures food safety. D. Food safety and supply issues have been addressed. 11. What is the main idea of this article? A. Seasonal labour is in short supply. B. Imported food prices are on the rise. C. Farmers fear food shortage caused by green plans. D. Government worries about the slow agricultural development. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，主要讲述了英国农民对于环保计划可能导致食品短缺的担忧。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“Stephen Holt, who owns 670 acres in Northamptonshire, said farmers were being incentivized (刺激) by the government subsidy to reduce food production in favour of wildlife.”（斯蒂芬·霍尔特，在北安普敦郡拥有670英亩良田，他说政府的subsidy正在刺激农民减少食品生产，以支持野生动物。）可推知，这里的“subsidy”是政府为了鼓励农民减少食品生产而给予的“奖励”，故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“What has not been mentioned is that if some disaster fell and our imports were disrupted (扰乱), growing wheat to produce bread could not be turned on like a tap. It will take several years and a significant increase in prices to get production back up to today’s levels.”（没有提到的是，如果发生了一些灾难，我们的进口被扰乱，种植小麦以生产面包不能像开水龙头那样立即恢复。恢复到今天的生产水平需要几年的时间和价格的大幅上涨。）可推知，减少小麦生产可能会带来负面影响，故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Liz Webster, a farmer in north Wiltshire, said, “There just doesn't seem to be any thought or concern for food security and food supply. They’ve just left it up to the supermarkets.” The farmers’ concerns include imported food produced in countries with lower welfare (福利) standards, and labelling of food origins.”（威尔特郡北部的农民Liz Webster说，“似乎没有人关心食品安全和供应。他们只是把这些问题留给了超市。”农民们关心的问题包括在福利标准较低的国家生产的进口食品，以及食品来源的标签。）可推知，Liz Webster认为进口食品的安全性无法得到保证，故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文以及第一段“With egg shortages already a familiar sight on supermarket shelves, farmers are warning that vegetables and grains could be next, because environmental plans take out large areas of land that are used for food production.”（由于鸡蛋短缺已经成为超市货架上常见的景象，农民们警告说，蔬菜和谷物可能是下一个，因为环保计划占用了用于粮食生产的大片土地。）可知，短文主要讲述了英国农民对于环保计划可能导致食品短缺的担忧。故选C。 D Dror Angel, an ecologist, had for years heard his archaeologist (考古学家) colleagues talk about ancient shipwrecks on the bottom of the Black Sea that were perfectly preserved by the low-oxygen environment. “You can see ropes,” Angel says. “It’s something which is quite amazing.” Now, Angel wants to fight climate change by purposefully adding to the wreckage (残骸) , sinking waste wood to the sea floor, where carbon that the trees stored up can remain locked away for centuries. Angel is a scientist for a company that could help limit global warming by drawing carbon out of the atmosphere and locking it up. However, some carbon capture (捕获) strategies require expensive machines and complex chemistry, burying waste wood at sea is extremely simple: All it takes are tugboats and woody waste from forestry and agriculture. The approach has advantages over another popular ocean-based carbon capture strategy: growing massive amounts of seaweed. Because the plant material is grown on land rather than in the ocean, it is less likely to rob nutrients from the surrounding water and upset the ecology. Industrial agriculture and forestry could grow, process, and transport plants, in contrast to marine farming, which has never been attempted at scale. And because woody plants are tough and unlikely to break down, they are good at hanging on to their carbon. At the same time, the approach may fall short of what’s needed to fight climate change. To keep global warming below 2°C, the world needs to capture and store about 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide per year by midcentury. But waste wood can be sunk only where supplies of it are located near suitable bodies of water. By one recent study, the approach could lock a few tens of billions of tons of carbon dioxide in total — just a little of the need. “This approach is not going to solve the full problem,” says ocean engineer Kate Moran. “It’s going to be a small piece of the pie if it is considered to be more beneficial than risky.” But the urgency of carbon removal demands that every possible approach be explored thoroughly, she adds, “Anyway, we need all the tools in the toolbox.” 12. Why did the author cite “You can see ropes” in paragraph 1? A. Angel dropped the ropes into the deep sea for experiment. B. Things can be well preserved in the low-oxygen environment. C. Carbon that the ropes stored up can be locked away for a long time. D. Angel’s archaeologist colleagues were studying the deep sea environment. 13. Why is the approach of sinking waste wood better than that of growing seaweed? A. It is supported by mature techniques. B. It requires cheap machines and simple chemistry. C. Woody plants are more environmentally friendly. D. Waste wood takes in lots of carbon from the surroundings. 14. What message does paragraph 4 convey? A. The strategy alone isn’t enough to fight climate change. B. The strategy can capture and lock the carbon dioxide needed. C. The global warming can’t be kept below 2°C with the strategy. D. Supplies of waste wood are available near suitable bodies of water. 15 What is Kate Moran’s attitude toward the strategy according to the last paragraph? A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了生态学家Dror Angel提出的一种应对气候变化的方法，即将废弃的木材沉入海底，以此来锁住树木储存的碳，从而减少大气中的碳含量。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Dror Angel, an ecologist, had for years heard his archaeologist (考古学家) colleagues talk about ancient shipwrecks on the bottom of the Black Sea that were perfectly preserved by the low-oxygen environment. “You can see ropes,” Angel says. “It’s something which is quite amazing.”（生态学家德罗尔·安吉尔多年来一直听他的考古学同事谈论黑海海底的古代沉船，这些沉船在低氧环境下被完好地保存了下来。“你可以看到绳子，”安吉尔说。“这真是太神奇了。）可知，Angel提到的“你可以看到绳子”是为了说明在低氧环境下，物品可以被完好地保存下来。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Because the plant material is grown on land rather than in the ocean, it is less likely to rob nutrients from the surrounding water and upset the ecology.”（因为这种植物材料生长在陆地上，而不是海洋中，所以它不太可能从周围的水中夺走营养并破坏生态。）可知，为什么废弃木材的下沉方法比种植海藻的方法更好是因为木本植物更环保。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“At the same time, the approach may fall short of what's needed to fight climate change.”（与此同时，这种方法可能不足以应对气候变化。）可知，这种策略本身并不足以应对气候变化。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But the urgency of carbon removal demands that every possible approach be explored thoroughly, she adds, “Anyway, we need all the tools in the toolbox.””（但是，碳去除的紧迫性要求我们彻底探索每一种可能的方法，她补充说，“无论如何，我们需要工具箱里的所有工具。）可知，她对这种策略是持支持态度的。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自处的最住选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One thing you’ll probably notice about being a teenager is that your body isn’t completely used to the changes. In fact, the changes in your brain don't completely settle in most people until their mid-20s. Your body changes in many ways and most of these changes are brought about because of chemicals released in the body. ____16____ This can be unsettling, as anything happening beyond your control can be. First, take the moment when no one is talking to you to think about your breathing. By asking that step back from how you’re feeling and examining why you’re feeling it, it is easier to process these emotions. If you’re feeling awkward and embarrassed at school, the easiest thing to do is to ride that emotional wave even if it means a private release of emotions. ____17____ Fortunately, this isn’t the only way. A mindful approach can be one of the best tools you have. When your mind feels more settled, allow one of the emotions to approach you . ____18____ If you are feeling stable, perhaps consider why you are feeling it, reminding yourself of the situation — your brain is changing. You’re in a stressful situation, and your body is full of new chemical levels that are creating a mess. ____19____ You can process it later, when you’re at home, or somewhere more peaceful. Now, you’ve let it go! It doesn’t need to be a part of you, or control any part of you right now. This can be a very hard trick to master, because your brain is used to being affected by the emotion, and you’re trying to change course now, ____20____ Even by practicing, you’re acknowledging to yourself that you want to be in control, and that’s the most important first step. A. Don’t be depressed if it takes practice. B. Admit what it is, but don’t be controlled by it. C. As you focus on the present, try focusing on your breathing. D. Having a sincere conversation with yourself is also a good idea. E. Letting your tears flow can be a useful and mindful activity. F. If, after all that, you still feel a need to blame yourself, simply let the emotion go. G. This means your emotions can be unstable, making your mood change suddenly. 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. B 19. F 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了如何控制好自己的情绪。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Your body changes in many ways and most of these changes are brought about because of chemicals released in the body.”（你的身体在许多方面发生变化，其中大部分变化是由于体内释放的化学物质引起的。）可知，选项承接上文说明化学物质所产生的影响。故G选项“这意味着你的情绪可能不稳定，使你的情绪突然变化。”切题。故选G项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“If you’re feeling awkward and embarrassed at school, the easiest thing to do is to ride that emotional wave even if it means a private release of emotions.”（如果你在学校感到尴尬，最简单的办法就是驾驭这种情绪波动，即使这意味着你要私下释放情绪。）可知，选项承接上文说明释放情绪的方式是什么。故E选项“让你的眼泪流是一种有益的、有意识的活动。”切题。故选E项。 18题详解】 根据上文“When your mind feels more settled, allow one of the emotions to approach you”（你的思想稳定下来时，允许其中一种情绪接近你）可知，选项承接上文说明如何对待这种情绪。故B选项“承认它是什么，但不要被它所控制”切题。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“You’re in a stressful situation, and your body is full of new chemical levels that are creating a mess.”（你处于紧张的状态，你的身体充满了新的化学物质，这些化学物质正在制造混乱。）根据下文“You can process it later, when you’re at home, or somewhere more peaceful. ”（ 你可以稍后再处理，当你在家的时候，或者在更安静的地方）可知，选项承上启下说明这些化学物质正在制造混乱所以要释放这种压力。let the emotion go呼应process it。故F选项“如果在所有这些之后，你仍然觉得还是在责备自己，那就把这种情绪释放掉吧”切题。故选F项。 【20题详解】 根据下文“Even by practicing, you’re acknowledging to yourself that you want to be in control, and that’s the most important first step”（即使通过练习，你也在向自己承认你想掌控局面，这是最重要的第一步）可知，短文介绍要通过练习来控制情绪。故A选项“如果需要练习，不要沮丧”切题。takes practice呼应by practicing。故选A项。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题: 每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A. B. C. D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I did not discover I could not read until after I had left college. I found it out only ____21____ tried to teach others how to read.

I feel much honored to deliver a speech here. My topic is “Protecting endangered wild animals”. As can be seen, human activities have brought many animals close to extinction. For one thing, human beings build houses, farms and factories for their own interests, destroying animal habitats. For another, hunting without restraint leads to a sharp decrease in animal populations. In order to protect the wildlife from extinction, I suggest that we set up more nature reserves where wildlife can live in harmony. What’s more, stricter laws should be passed to prohibit illegal hunting. Let’s work together to protect wild animals! Thank you! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。考生所在校将举办主题为“保护濒危野生动物” 的英文演讲比赛。请考生写一篇演讲稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 破坏：destroy→damage 导致：lead to→result in 保护：protect→preserve 建议：suggest→advise 2句式拓展 合并句子 原句：I feel much honored to deliver a speech here.

Still nothing from my 13-year-old granddaughter, Noe Why won’t she return my text messages? I wondered. Noe was my grandchild. For years, Noe and her family lived close by and she and I spent a lot of time together. It made my day to see Noe’s face light up whenever I arrived. Then my husband and I moved to a different part. Actually it wasn’t an impossible distance. But with traffic it now took up to two hours to drive to Noe’s house. So, my regular visits with Noe came to a sudden end. The last time I saw her, she was excited about the latest addition to her life: Golden, a puppy (小狗). Golden was just like her name, a fluffy (毛茸茸的) ball of bright yellow down. For a while, Noe and I kept in touch via text messages and phone cells. Gradually, her text replies took longer to arrive. Phone calls became brief. “How’s school going?” “Okay.” “What’s your favorite subject?” “Dunno.” Nothing I tried seemed to break through Noe’s sudden wall of indifference (漠不关心), Was she okay? Did she even miss me? I asked about Golden every time we talked. But caring for Golden seemed more interesting to her than talking to me. She was often busy with him and didn’t come to the phone when I called. Was I being replaced by the puppy? My cell phone rang. Noe! But there were no words in the text. Just photos. Noe on her bike with Golden on her lap. Noe and Golden walking on the street with a shining leash(狗绳) in hand. Obviously, it was carefully selected. I don’t want to be jealous (嫉妒的) of a puppy. Months passed with seldom a word from Noe. At last, I couldn’t wait. I decided to pay a visit to Noe’s house. Upon my arrival, I said to Noe, “show me your puppy.” She was stunned (惊呆) but quickly led me to the backyard and introduced me to her fluffy friend, giving detailed descriptions of his preferences. It was more words than we’d exchanged in a year, 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。 Then, Noe asked me whether we could walk Golden together. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We understood each other better after much conversation and now it’s time to say goodbye. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then, Noe asked me whether we could walk Golden together. I accepted her invitation readily. Noe handed me the shining leash and we walked through the neighborhood, with Golden happily trotting alongside us. Noe chattered excitedly about Golden, her school and friends, sharing her innermost thoughts and feelings. I listened attentively, feeling grateful for this moment of connection. The longer we walked, the more she opened up about the rest of her life. With each step, our bond strengthened, bridging the gap that had unknowingly grown between us. We understood each other better after much conversation and now it’s time to say goodbye. We hugged tightly and I knew I hadn’t been replaced by Golden. “I’m so happy to be with you today, Noe,” I said softly, a smile playing on my lips. Noe’s eyes sparkled with joy, and she whispered, “Me too. Thank you for your visit, Grandma. I’ll text you more often to share Golden’s life with you.” I drove away, with the memories of a beautiful day spent with my granddaughter and her fluffy companion. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的孙女自从有了宠物狗之后和作者的交流变少了。作者决定去孙女家看看，一到达，作者就让孙女带着自己去看望了小狗Golden。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后，诺伊问我我们是否可以一起遛Golden”可知，第一段可描写作者和孙女的交流内容以及作者觉得弥合了她们之间在不知不觉中拉大的鸿沟。 ②由第二段首句内容“经过多次交谈，我们更加了解对方了，现在是时候说再见了。”可知，第二段可描写作者和孙女道别的过程以及作者的回忆。 2.续写线索：与孙女交谈——觉得关系更近了——道别时说了什么————作者的回忆 3.词汇激活 行为类 分享：share /exchange 拥抱：hug/embrace 驱车离开：drive away /bear off 取代：replace/take the place of 情绪类 感激的：grateful/appreciative 美好的：beautiful/wonderful 【点睛】[高分句型1] With each step, our bond strengthened, bridging the gap that had unknowingly grown between us.
