The need to meet parents’ standards and the fear of not living up to what is expected can create a great weight on the mind of a young person. To deal with stress, developing healthy habits is very important. Regular exercise, enough sleep, and a balanced diet are quite significant. Also, open communication and seeking help are important. Encouraging young people to express their true feelings, whether to friends or family, helps in releasing bottled-up emotions. Relaxation techniques also play a key role in stress management. Activities like deep-breathing exercises help to give a sense of calmness and improve stress resistance. It is extremely important to recognize the causes of stress among young people and use healthy ways to deal with them. A balanced lifestyle, open communication, and relaxation can help them deal with the challenges of youth. 第二部分 阅读 （共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （15个小题；每题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Welcome to Grand Central Terminal Grand Central Terminal is one of the most-visited destinations in New York City for a reason: history, architecture, dining, and shopping, all under one magnificent roof.

We stayed in the cheapest accommodation we could find and live on bread. This was 1990, a time before mobile phones and the Internet, when the primary contact with home was the collection of mail from the post office. Before I left, Mom had made a money bag to wear around my neck. She’d also made me a sleeping sheet so I could avoid unclean bedding. She didn’t want me to go, and these gifts were her way of telling me to have a wonderful time. It’s only now, as my 18-year-old daughter is preparing to leave on her own gap year trip, that I have understood what Mom felt. Working many jobs and saving money, my daughter has researched where to stay, how to get around and what to do when she arrives. She seldom asks for my opinion and I don’t know whether I should back off or not. I want to be cool but not cold. I want to be like the perfect travel guide. When she first mentioned gap year travel, I was encouraging, wanting her to have her own experiences that shape her. I didn’t let myself think too much about her not being here. Our house has already got smaller in size and soon it will just be me, my son and the cat. And I’m not quite ready for that. But this trip is about her. This is not 1990 and I am not stuck at home waiting for a letter. I have promised not to upset her with messages, but at least I know she can contact me when she wants to. 24. What can we learn about the author’s travel in 1990? A. She traveled around Europe on her own. B. She bought clean bedding for a sound sleep. C. She had to budget carefully to afford the trip. D. She made calls to keep in touch with her mother. 25. How did the author’s mother feel about her travel plan? A. Excited. B. Proud. C. Angry. D. Concerned. 26. What troubles the author about her daughter’s gap year trip? A. Heavy pressure of money. B. Having no one to turn to for help. C. Wondering whether to get involved. D. Little knowledge about the destination. 27. What does the author decide to do? A. Move into a much larger house. B. Take a trip with her daughter. C. Contact her daughter by letter. D. Trust her daughter and let go. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。通过作者对自己18岁时欧洲旅行经历的回顾，以及对照自己即将踏上间隔年旅行的女儿的准备情况，文中表达了作为母亲对孩子成长独立的复杂情感，包括理解、支持、不舍与放手之间的平衡。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When I was 18, determined not to spend my last teenage year stuck in a village, I took off with an Australian friend and we traveled around Europe for months. We stayed in the cheapest accommodation we could find and live on bread. (当我18岁的时候，我决定不让我的最后一个青少年时期被困在一个村庄里，我和一个澳大利亚朋友起飞，我们在欧洲旅行了几个月。我们住在我们能找到的最便宜的住处，靠面包生活。)”和第二段中“This was 1990, a time before mobile phones and the Internet, when the primary contact with home was the collection of mail from the post office. (那是1990年，手机和互联网还没有出现的时候，人们与家的主要联系是从邮局收集邮件。)”可知，作者在1990年的旅行中必须精打细算才能负担得起这次旅行。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Before I left, Mom had made a money bag to wear around my neck. She’d also made me a sleeping sheet so I could avoid unclean bedding. She didn’t want me to go, and these gifts were her way of telling me to have a wonderful time. (在我离开之前，妈妈做了一个钱袋挂在我的脖子上。她还给我做了一张床单，这样我就可以避免不干净的被褥。她不想让我去，这些礼物是她告诉我玩得开心的方式。)”可知，作者的母亲对于她的旅行计划感到担忧。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Working many jobs and saving money, my daughter has researched where to stay, how to get around and what to do when she arrives. She seldom asks for my opinion and I don’t know whether I should back off or not. I want to be cool but not cold. I want to be like the perfect travel guide. (为了省钱，我的女儿做了很多工作，她研究了住在哪里，如何四处走走，到达后该做些什么。她很少征求我的意见，我不知道该不该退让。我想变酷，但不想变冷。我想成为完美的旅游指南。)”可知，关于女儿的间隔年旅行，作者在纠结是否应该介入或保持距离。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But this trip is about her. This is not 1990 and I am not stuck at home waiting for a letter. I have promised not to upset her with messages, but at least I know she can contact me when she wants to. (但这次旅行是为了她。现在不是1990年，我也没有被困在家里等信。我答应过她不发短信让她心烦，但至少我知道她想联系我的时候可以联系我。)”可知，作者决定信任女儿，放手让她去旅行，同时保持一种不打扰的支持状态。故选D。 C Often, research surrounding non-native — also referred to as invasive (入侵的) — species focuses on the negative impact on the environments they invade. Non-native species represent threats or even disasters; some are even famous for it. But according to a new study from Brown University, while the negative aspects of non-native life, including the increased risk of causing extinction to other species, are mainly talked about, the positives are not always addressed. Researchers say that non-native species also have the ability to increase biodiversity (生物多样性) within habitats. As far as famously feared non-native species go, zebra mussels are high on the unwanted list. They originated in the waters of Eurasia and have grown to become a major issue in lakes and waterways across the Great Lakes, as well as in states such as Texas and California. In unnatural habitats, they reproduce rapidly, outcompeting native species for resources. Additionally, they attach themselves to hard surfaces, such as pipes and boats, costing millions to remove. But for its research, the team decided to focus not only on non-native species’ negative impacts but also on what they can contribute to habitats. In forests, the earthworms have the ability to change the ecosystem negatively. However, when earthworms are present in agricultural land, there is a possibility for a 25-percent increase in the productivity of agricultural crops. As far as brown trout — a non-native species in New Zealand — are concerned, locals have embraced the fish, enjoying the economic and recreational benefits of fishing for the species and adding it to their local food. Biologist Dov Sax, along with co-authors of the Brown University study, says that these benefits are not as uncommon as past research on invasive species may suggest. “Our new paper argues that the positive impacts of non-native species are neither unexpected nor rare but instead common and important,” says Sax. 28. What does the new study focus on? A. Bad influence of invasive species. B. Uncertain future some species face. C. Possible benefits non-native species bring. D. The importance of biodiversity protection. 29. What can we learn about zebra mussels from paragraph 2? A. They are listed as endangered species. B. They disturb the local natural balance. C. They receive a warm welcome in Texas. D. They bring huge business opportunities. 30. What is locals’ attitude to the brown trout？ A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Discontent. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Say No to the Non-Native Species B. What do Unnatural Habitats Mean? C. A Close Link Between Researches D. Are Invasive Species Always Bad? 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究人员发现非本地物种有助于增加当地生物多样性，并列举了一些例子加以说明。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But according to a new study from Brown University, while the negative aspects of non-native life, including the increased risk of causing extinction to other species, are mainly talked about, the positives are not always addressed. Researchers say that non-native species also have the ability to increase biodiversity (生物多样性) within habitats.(但根据布朗大学的一项新研究，虽然非本地生物的负面影响，包括导致其他物种灭绝的风险增加，主要被谈论，但积极的一面并不总是得到解决。研究人员说，非本地物种也有能力增加栖息地内的生物多样性)”可知，这项新研究的重点是非本地物种可能带来的好处。故选C。 29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In unnatural habitats, they reproduce rapidly, outcompeting native species for resources. Additionally, they attach themselves to hard surfaces, such as pipes and boats, costing millions to remove.(在非自然栖息地，它们繁殖迅速，与本地物种争夺资源。此外，它们附着在坚硬的表面上，如管道和船只，要花费数百万美元才能清除)”可知，斑马贻贝破坏了当地的自然平衡。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“As far as brown trout — a non-native species in New Zealand — are concerned, locals have embraced the fish, enjoying the economic and recreational benefits of fishing for the species and adding it to their local food.(至于褐鳟鱼——新西兰的一种非本地物种——当地人已经接受了这种鱼，享受着捕捞这种鱼带来的经济和娱乐效益，并将其添加到当地的食物中)”可知，当地人对褐鳟的态度是支持。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“But according to a new study from Brown University, while the negative aspects of non-native life, including the increased risk of causing extinction to other species, are mainly talked about, the positives are not always addressed. Researchers say that non-native species also have the ability to increase biodiversity (生物多样性) within habitats.(但根据布朗大学的一项新研究，虽然非本地生物的负面影响，包括导致其他物种灭绝的风险增加，主要被谈论，但积极的一面并不总是得到解决。研究人员说，非本地物种也有能力增加栖息地内的生物多样性)”结合文章主要说明了研究人员发现非本地物种有助于增加当地生物多样性，并列举了一些例子加以说明。可知，D选项“入侵物种总是有害的吗？”最符合文章标题。故选D。 D If you connected your grandparents with flowers or blooms, what types would they be? A theory called “orchids (兰花) and dandelions (蒲公英)” was introduced to describe how people adapt to their environment. Just like orchids that need specific conditions to grow, some people show a similar nature. On the other hand, dandelions, like weeds, can grow almost anywhere and stay strong even in difficult environments. The theory, which first came out in 2005, was created to understand how kids grow up. But in 2022, Canadian scientists discovered it also applies to older people. They investigated the lifestyle activities of more than 3,530 older adults, and then studied the influence of these activities on their cognitive (认知的) health, including whether their cognitive patterns changed. The cognitive patterns of “dandelion” elders appear steady, which means that they tend to have better cognitive health, showing great adaptation and an ability to handle tough conditions. Dandelion-type seniors usually have strong social networks, engage positively with family members and the community, and always seek out the silver linings in life experiences. Having various hobbies or careers, they actively communicate with the world and realize their values, which allows them to find satisfaction in life. Orchid-type seniors, who tend to have changes in cognitive patterns, maintain limited communication with the outside world. While deeply crazy about one or two hobbies or careers, they tend to focus on these interests. Although they may do well in familiar environments, unfavorable conditions lead them to overreact and struggle. Knowing what flower type your grandparents are enables you to love and care for them better and helps them enjoy delightful and fulfilling golden years. Dandelions sometimes might struggle with loneliness, so family members’ company is helpful in such cases. For orchids, families should encourage them to express how they feel and what they need. 32. What is the “orchids and dandelions” theory mainly about? A. The change of lifestyle. B. Personal response to conditions. C. Growth habit of two plants. D. Differences between generations. 33. What do the underlined words “silver linings” mean in paragraph 3? A. Surprising truths. B. Unexpected turns. C. Hopeful aspects. D. Lasting memories. 34. What can we learn about orchid-type seniors? A. They are willing to make changes. B. They have good social connections. C. They have a wide variety of hobbies. D. They manage new conditions poorly. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. Flowers and their influence. B. Family members’ care and love. C. An insight into seniors’ personalities. D. Tips on how to improve seniors’ health. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了“兰花和蒲公英”理论的具体内容，以及两种不同类型的老人的特点和给出建议。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A theory called “orchids (兰花) and dandelions (蒲公英)” was introduced to describe how people adapt to their environment. Just like orchids that need specific conditions to grow, some people show a similar nature. On the other hand, dandelions, like weeds, can grow almost anywhere and stay strong even in difficult environments.(一种叫做“兰花和蒲公英”的理论被引入来描述人们如何适应他们的环境。就像兰花需要特定的条件才能生长一样，有些人也表现出类似的天性。另一方面，蒲公英和杂草一样，几乎可以在任何地方生长，即使在困难的环境中也能保持强壮)”可知，“兰花和蒲公英”理论的主要内容是个人对环境的反应。故选B。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“Having various hobbies or careers, they actively communicate with the world and realize their values, which allows them to find satisfaction in life.(他们有各种各样的爱好或职业，他们积极与世界交流，实现自己的价值观，这让他们在生活中找到满足感)”可知，蒲公英型老年人会在生活中寻找有希望的方面。故划线词意思是“有希望的方面”。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Orchid-type seniors, who tend to have changes in cognitive patterns, maintain limited communication with the outside world. While deeply crazy about one or two hobbies or careers, they tend to focus on these interests. Although they may do well in familiar environments, unfavorable conditions lead them to overreact and struggle.(兰花型老年人的认知模式往往会发生变化，他们与外界的交流有限。虽然他们对一两个爱好或职业非常着迷，但他们往往专注于这些兴趣。虽然他们在熟悉的环境中表现得很好，但不利的环境会导致他们反应过度和挣扎)”可知，兰花型老年人不能很好地应对新环境。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“But in 2022, Canadian scientists discovered it also applies to older people. They investigated the lifestyle activities of more than 3,530 older adults, and then studied the influence of these activities on their cognitive (认知的) health, including whether their cognitive patterns changed.(但在2022年，加拿大科学家发现这也适用于老年人。他们调查了3530多名老年人的生活方式活动，然后研究了这些活动对他们认知健康的影响，包括他们的认知模式是否发生了变化)”结合文章主要说明了“兰花和蒲公英”理论的具体内容，以及两种不同类型的老人的特点和给出建议。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是对老年人性格的洞察。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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Improving your career development will help you stay competitive when it’s time to seek a promotion or apply for a new opportunity.

It’s also a good idea to reflect on your own particular strengths and weaknesses so you can identify what to work on as you prepare your personal career path.(这包括哪些行业可能最适合你，以及相关的工作和公司。反思自己的优势和劣势也是一个好主意，这样你就可以在准备个人职业道路时确定要做什么)”可知，后文主要给出了如何选择职业道路的建议，且提到反思自我，推测先要了解自己的选择。故G选项“在你开始你的职业发展之前，了解你的选择是有帮助的”符合语境，故选G。 【37题详解】 根据后文“Your boss might also be a perfect one, since they should be able to show you what you need to learn in order to develop in your current and future roles. You can discuss your career path with your boss. (你的老板也可能是一个完美的人，因为他们应该能够告诉你，为了在你现在和未来的角色中发展，你需要学习什么。你可以和老板讨论你的职业道路)”可知，后文主要说明了通过老板来了解职业发展，F选项helper对应后文one。故F选项“你可以在工作中找一个帮手，也许来自你想探索的不同部门”符合语境，故选F。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Once you’ve explored your options and found a helper, you should have enough information to be able to set specific, measurable goals.

Give yourself a timeline for achieving your goals.(一旦你探索了你的选择并找到了一个帮手，你就应该有足够的信息来设定具体的、可衡量的目标。确保你的目标是现实的，但具有挑战性，并注意使它们可行。给自己制定一个完成目标的时间表)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文，说明制定时间表的意义。故B选项“这将有助于确保你能及时达到你的目标”符合语境，故选B。 【39题详解】 根据后文“They generally focus energy on helping employees develop and follow a career path.(他们通常把精力集中在帮助员工发展和走上职业道路上)”可知，后文提到了帮助员工发展和走上职业道路，推测本句是在引出后文，指出公司帮助员工发展事业。故D选项“一些公司有正式的项目来帮助员工发展他们的事业”符合语境，故选D。 【40题详解】 根据后文“There are many ways to build them. You might attend training sessions to increase your knowledge. New strategies and technologies relevant to just about every career are being introduced constantly, so it pays to stay up-to-date on industry developments.(有很多方法可以构建它们。你可以参加培训课程来增加你的知识。与每一个职业相关的新策略和新技术都在不断地被引入，所以紧跟行业发展是有好处的)”可知，后文主要介绍了构建工作技能的方法，C选项中job skills对应后文them。故C选项“你职业发展的一个重要部分就是拓展你的工作技能”符合语境，故选C。 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 “IS THERE A DOCTOR ON BOARD?” No doctor wants to hear these words while ____41____, but this time I was already ready by the worried sounds.

Hundreds of volunteers were wrapping presents or filling baskets. It was like Santa’s workshop. It was December 2018, and I had discovered the Sydney Basket Brigade, a charitable organization that relieves poverty by providing food and other basic necessities of life to individuals or families who are poor, of low income or in need. The charity was packing baskets and gift boxes with basic daily items as well as Christmas treats. Help us change lives one basket at a time, their website read. It was important to me that my two boys, Kallum, 10, and Brayden, 9, learnt to be kind to others, so I immediately registered (报名) myself, my husband Tony, and the boys for the packing day. We arrived dressed in Christmas colours, but it was clear my sons hadn’t yet caught the spirit. Brayden made a complaint and asked, “How long do we have to stay here for?” “All day, dear,” I answered. My sons’ lives were comfortable, but I wanted to show the importance of making sacrifices (牺牲). “Why do we have to do this?” Brayden asked. “Because the world’s a big place,” I said. “It’s not all about us.” The atmosphere in the house was very lively, but my boys were doing a very half-hearted job with the wrapping. I told them that this might be the only present someone gets. I showed them how to fold the corners and make the present look neat. The boys, both lovers of origami (折纸), finally started to have fun. I praised their work when they showed off their perfected wrapping. 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。 That evening, we delivered the first basket to an old woman. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On our way home, my sons became unusually quiet. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 That evening, we delivered the first basket to an old woman. Her eyes sparkled with tears as she opened the door to her small, rundown apartment. Trembling, she took the basket, repeatedly thanking us. “This means the world to me,” she said softly. Brayden and Kallum, wide-eyed, witnessed the impact of their efforts firsthand. She invited us in for tea, sharing stories of past Christmases and how this was the first gift she’d received in years. As we left, she hugged each of us tightly, and a change in my boys’ expressions came into my view, seeming like his understanding the true spirit of giving. On our way home, my sons were unusually quiet. Brayden finally said, “Mom, I didn’t know so many people needed help.” Kallum added, “We should do this every year.” I smiled, proud of their newfound understanding. “Helping others makes a big difference,” I said. That night, as I got them into bed, they were already planning for next Christmas, brainstorming ways to help more. The day taught them the joy of giving and the importance of empathy and compassion, giving our Christmas a deeper meaning. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者带家人参加悉尼篮子队为贫困家庭准备圣诞礼物活动。开始孩子们不情愿，但见到受助老人感动落泪后，他们理解了奉献的意义，并决心每年参与。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当天晚上，我们把第一个篮子送到了一位老妇人手中。”可知，第一段可描写老妇人收到篮子后的感激。 ②由第二段首句内容“在我们回家的路上，儿子们异常安静。”可知，第二段可描写孩子们意识到了很多人需要帮助，并决定每年都参与这个活动。 2.续写线索：送篮子——感激——听故事——感悟——回家——决定每年参加 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①影响：impact/affect ②看见：witness/see ③收到：receive/get 情绪类 ①骄傲：be proud of/take pride in ②感激：thank/grateful 【点睛】[高分句型1]Her eyes sparkled with tears as she opened the door to her small, rundown apartment.（由连接词as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2]She invited us in for tea, sharing stories of past Christmases and how this was the first gift she’d received in years. （由连接词how引导宾语从句由省略关系词引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023—2024学年度第二学期期中学业水平检测 高一英语 2024.04 （考试时间：120分钟； 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案划在试卷上。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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the man ask the woman to do?

B When I was 18, determined not to spend my last teenage year stuck in a village, I took off with an Australian friend and we traveled around Europe for months. We stayed in the cheapest accommodation we could find and live on bread. This was 1990, a time before mobile phones and the Internet, when the primary contact with home was the collection of mail from the post office. Before I left, Mom had made a money bag to wear around my neck. She’d also made me a sleeping sheet so I could avoid unclean bedding. She didn’t want me to go, and these gifts were her way of telling me to have a wonderful time. It’s only now, as my 18-year-old daughter is preparing to leave on her own gap year trip, that I have understood what Mom felt. Working many jobs and saving money, my daughter has researched where to stay, how to get around and what to do when she arrives. She seldom asks for my opinion and I don’t know whether I should back off or not. I want to be cool but not cold. I want to be like the perfect travel guide. When she first mentioned gap year travel, I was encouraging, wanting her to have her own experiences that shape her. I didn’t let myself think too much about her not being here. Our house has already got smaller in size and soon it will just be me, my son and the cat. And I’m not quite ready for that. But this trip is about her. This is not 1990 and I am not stuck at home waiting for a letter. I have promised not to upset her with messages, but at least I know she can contact me when she wants to. 24. What can we learn about the author’s travel in 1990? A. She traveled around Europe on her own. B. She bought clean bedding for a sound sleep. C. She had to budget carefully to afford the trip.

Non-native species represent threats or even disasters; some are even famous for it. But according to a new study from Brown University, while the negative aspects of non-native life, including the increased risk of causing extinction to other species, are mainly talked about, the positives are not always addressed. Researchers say that non-native species also have the ability to increase biodiversity (生物多样性) within habitats. As far as famously feared non-native species go, zebra mussels are high on the unwanted list. They originated in the waters of Eurasia and have grown to become a major issue in lakes and waterways across the Great Lakes, as well as in states such as Texas and California. In unnatural habitats, they reproduce rapidly, outcompeting native species for resources. Additionally, they attach themselves to hard surfaces, such as pipes and boats, costing millions to remove. But for its research, the team decided to focus not only on non-native species’ negative impacts but also on what they can contribute to habitats. In forests, the earthworms have the ability to change the ecosystem negatively. However, when earthworms are present in agricultural land, there is a possibility for a 25-percent increase in the productivity of agricultural crops. As far as brown trout — a non-native species in New Zealand — are concerned, locals have embraced the fish, enjoying the economic and recreational benefits of fishing for the species and adding it to their local food. Biologist Dov Sax, along with co-authors of the Brown University study, says that these benefits are not as uncommon as past research on invasive species may suggest. “Our new paper argues that the positive impacts of non-native species are neither unexpected nor rare but instead common and important,” says Sax. 28. What does the new study focus on? A. Bad influence of invasive species. B. Uncertain future some species face. C. Possible benefits non-native species bring. D. The importance of biodiversity protection. 29. What can we learn about zebra mussels from paragraph 2? A. They are listed as endangered species. B. They disturb the local natural balance. C. They receive a warm welcome in Texas. D. They bring huge business opportunities. 30. What is locals’ attitude to the brown trout？ A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Discontent. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Say No to the Non-Native Species B. What do Unnatural Habitats Mean? C. A Close Link Between Researches D. Are Invasive Species Always Bad? D If you connected your grandparents with flowers or blooms, what types would they be? A theory called “orchids (兰花) and dandelions (蒲公英)” was introduced to describe how people adapt to their environment. Just like orchids that need specific conditions to grow, some people show a similar nature. On the other hand, dandelions, like weeds, can grow almost anywhere and stay strong even in difficult environments. The theory, which first came out in 2005, was created to understand how kids grow up. But in 2022, Canadian scientists discovered it also applies to older people. They investigated the lifestyle activities of more than 3,530 older adults, and then studied the influence of these activities on their cognitive (认知的) health, including whether their cognitive patterns changed. The cognitive patterns of “dandelion” elders appear steady, which means that they tend to have better cognitive health, showing great adaptation and an ability to handle tough conditions. Dandelion-type seniors usually have strong social networks, engage positively with family members and the community, and always seek out the silver linings in life experiences. Having various hobbies or careers, they actively communicate with the world and realize their values, which allows them to find satisfaction in life. Orchid-type seniors, who tend to have changes in cognitive patterns, maintain limited communication with the outside world. While deeply crazy about one or two hobbies or careers, they tend to focus on these interests. Although they may do well in familiar environments, unfavorable conditions lead them to overreact and struggle. Knowing what flower type your grandparents are enables you to love and care for them better and helps them enjoy delightful and fulfilling golden years. Dandelions sometimes might struggle with loneliness, so family members’ company is helpful in such cases. For orchids, families should encourage them to express how they feel and what they need. 32. What is the “orchids and dandelions” theory mainly about? A. The change of lifestyle. B. Personal response to conditions. C. Growth habit of two plants. D. Differences between generations. 33. What do the underlined words “silver linings” mean in paragraph 3? A. Surprising truths. B. Unexpected turns. C. Hopeful aspects. D. Lasting memories. 34. What can we learn about orchid-type seniors? A. They are willing to make changes. B. They have good social connections. C. They have a wide variety of hobbies. D. They manage new conditions poorly. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. Flowers and their influence. B. Family members’ care and love. C. An insight into seniors’ personalities. D. Tips on how to improve seniors’ health. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Improving your career development will help you stay competitive when it’s time to seek a promotion or apply for a new opportunity.

Hundreds of volunteers were wrapping presents or filling baskets. It was like Santa’s workshop. It was December 2018, and I had discovered the Sydney Basket Brigade, a charitable organization that relieves poverty by providing food and other basic necessities of life to individuals or families who are poor, of low income or in need. The charity was packing baskets and gift boxes with basic daily items as well as Christmas treats. Help us change lives one basket at a time, their website read. It was important to me that my two boys, Kallum, 10, and Brayden, 9, learnt to be kind to others, so I immediately registered (报名) myself, my husband Tony, and the boys for the packing day. We arrived dressed in Christmas colours, but it was clear my sons hadn’t yet caught the spirit. Brayden made a complaint and asked, “How long do we have to stay here for?” “All day, dear,” I answered. My sons’ lives were comfortable, but I wanted to show the importance of making sacrifices (牺牲). “Why do we have to do this?” Brayden asked. “Because the world’s a big place,” I said. “It’s not all about us.” The atmosphere in the house was very lively, but my boys were doing a very half-hearted job with the wrapping. I told them that this might be the only present someone gets. I showed them how to fold the corners and make the present look neat. The boys, both lovers of origami (折纸), finally started to have fun. I praised their work when they showed off their perfected wrapping. 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。 That evening, we delivered the first basket to an old woman. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On our way home, my sons became unusually quiet. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
