Here, let’s take a look at some excellent book review s for this month. Dead Good Detectives Jenny McLachlan This is the story of a 12-year-old girl called Sid who loves playing horror games with her friends. But when she accidentally releases the ancient ghost pirate, Bones, Sid is launched into an adventure! However, there is someone hiding in the shadows, intended to send Bones back into the mysterious inn that he came from. This is a funny, exciting book that I would recommend to people who love lots of laughs. Totty Shirley Galligan To find his home, Totty the turtle goes on an impressive adventure with the help of his friends, and has different obstacles to overcome. He wakes up with a plastic bag stuck around his neck, swims through an oil spill and gets caught in a fishing net. My favourite part was when his friend, the whale, helped him out of the garbage mountain, and he was rescued by the Sea Turtle Rescue Centre. If you like sea animals and care for the environment then this is a good book for you! Fact Book of The Month: Aliens Joalda Morancy Ever wondered what incredible creatures might live beyond our planet? This mind- blowing book teaches you everything about the search for alien lifeforms in our solar system and beyond. Meet the robots sent to Mars to look for Martians, find out how to spot an advanced alien civilization and discover what really goes on at Area 51! Do alien s exist? And is it only a matter of time before we find them?! 21. Whose book will be recommended to someone who likes humorous stories? A. Jenny McLachlan’s. B. Shirley Galligan’s. C. Joalda Morancy’s. D. J. K. Rowling’s. 22. Readers of Totty are expected to ___________. A. possess the ability of vivid imagination. B. get known various kinds of sea creatures. C. develop interest in lifeforms beyond the earth. D. reflect on human’s impact on marine life. 23. In which column may we find this text? A. Science and research. B. Education and learning. C. Environment and ecology. D. Literature and art. B For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my “heart books”. To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school: Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write. It’s a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg’s method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The “I” in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice. This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 24. What can we learn about Writing Down the Bones from the first two paragraphs? A. It was among the list of “heart books”. B. It was recommended by her teacher. C The author encountered it in a bookstore. D. The author treasured it on her book shelf. 25. What does the author think of Goldberg’s method? A. Unique and innovative. B. Ordinary and normal. C. Direct and typical. D. Attractive and inspiring. 26. What did the author do while writing? A. She strictly followed Goldberg’s writing steps. B. She wrote on her notebook whenever possible. C. She kept practicing through different methods. D. She imagined many characters in her fictions. 27. Which is the suitable title for the text? A. Natalie Goldberg and Her Book. B. The Start of My Writing Career. C. Confidence Found Through Writing. D. Chain Reaction Caused by A Book. C Thomas Bogle has worked in the footwear industry for years. He also loves to run. He runs every day in the forest near his home in Colorado. But while training for a race, he couldn’t stop thinking about the bits of plastic and rubber that his shoes were shedding on the forest floor. With every step we take, our shoes leave behind an invisible trail of contaminants (污染物). These contaminants can potentially harm the soil, water and animal health. Shoes contain different types of plastics. Every year, about 500,000 tons of microplastics seep into the world’s oceans. Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic. They form as larger plastic objects break down. They can harm living things and the environment. Now, several companies are starting to develop plant-based soles (鞋底). They don’t leave plastics behind when they break down. Plant-based soles address some of these issues. They won’t shed plastic into the environment. Plus, they generate fewer toxic chemicals. But shoes made with natural materials face some of the same challenges as plastic-based shoes once they’re thrown out. Taking the shoes apart is still hard. Recycling shoes will require setting up new systems. Bogle had an idea to create an entirely plastic-free shoe outsole. He got some help from Gene Kelly. He is a professor of soil science at Colorado State University and a fellow runner. Together, Bogle and Kelly developed a shoe sole. It is made of beeswax, vegetable oils and plant products such as leaves and husks from corn and other crops. Bogle’s company, Solum, partners with farmers across the country. The farmers grow and harvest the plant materials. Then, the materials are transformed into little plant balls and blended with natural rubber to create the sole. Solum’s shoes don’t shed toxic chemicals. Instead, the soles put nutrients back into the soil as they naturally wear down over time. These days, Bogle runs, hikes and golfs in shoes with his company’s plant-based soles. “Footwear is a very hard product to fix,” he said. “It really requires completely shifting how we think about footwear and how we make footwear and the materials we use.” 28. What problems of shoes are mentioned in the passage? A. Shoes are easy to break down but nearly impossible to recycle. B. People buy new shoes every year but quite a few are thrown away. C. Plastics of shoes do harm to our environment and living things. D. Footwear industry is intensely competitive in the production of shoes. 29. How did Bogle address the shoes issues? A. By developing shoes made of natural materials. B. By asking other companies for technical support. C. By allowing local farmers to join in his research. D. By testing out his company’s shoes in running races. 30. What is the advantage of Solum’s shoes over others? A. They can endure lots of wear and tear. B. They don’t shed bits of chemicals at all. C. They are cheap in materials and production. D. They bring nutrients to soil instead of plastics. 31. How do we describe Bogle? A. Modest and capable. B. Passionate and friendly. C. Creative and responsible. D. Warm-hearted and devoted. D During Yang Zhongkai’s early years, a 500-year-old majestic ginkgo (银杏) tree that did not sprout leaves for two to three years at a stretch used to be a daily sight for him on his way to and from high school. Since villagers widely regarded the tree as having the power to make their wishes come true, they used to kneel down in front of the “lucky” tree and burn offerings under it, which led to prolonged heat exposure at its roots, stunting its growth. “Millions of such old trees are in urgent need of protection given their importance as vital biological resources and symbols of ecological civilization,” said Yang, who started the team — Zhiyue — dedicated to protecting ancient trees. “But the recording and management of ancient and famous trees nationwide commonly rely on Excel spreadsheets (电子表格), which present issues such as information silos, lack of real-time updates and incomplete content,” he said. However, things have changed of late. Yang and his team now use the artificial intelligence technology developed by Tencent Cloud to identify and register trees accurately based on individual traits and GPS tracking. “With the acceleration of a new generation of technological revolution and industrial transformation, new technologies bring more excitement to the protection of ancient trees,” Yang said. “We can now collect data on the trees’ growth, health and environment in real time, which helps us make informed decisions on how to better protect them.” “In addition to applying cutting-edge technologies such as AI and large models to assist in the development of traditional industries, the company also makes great efforts to promote the development of charitable causes through technological and platform advantages,” Wu. Yunsheng said, vice-president of Tencent Cloud, adding that “the power of technology can change the world”. 32. What does the underlined word “stunting” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Preventing. B. Boosting. C. Keeping. D. Recording. 33. What can we infer about Tencent Cloud’s new technology? A. It will replace Excel spreadsheets in the future. B. It is an effective tool to protect ancient trees. C. It will be widely used in modern industries. D. It has remarkable advantages over other AI. 34. What is Wu Yunsheng’s attitude towards the application of technology? A. Skeptical. B. Cautious. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent. 35. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To emphasize the importance of technology. B. To show technology’s aid to ancient trees. C. To introduce Tencent Cloud’s new function. D. To arouse the awareness of protecting trees. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 How to Keep Personal Art Journals You might have heard that keeping a journal is a great way to record your thoughts and understand your emotions. Typical journaling involves only writing. ____36____. And because there are so many ways to express yourself in an art journal, it’s a wonderful creative outlet for both beginners and more experienced creatives. ____37____. It combines elements of writing, drawing, painting, collage (拼贴画), and even graffiti to express yourself. This includes your everyday life, as well as your hopes, dreams, and fears. A single page will often have both words and illustrations to offer a look at what’s going on inside your head. Art journaling is a way to practice self-care. It encourages you to take a little time for yourself — even if it’s just for 15 minutes a day. When you look back at what you’ve written or drawn, you can gain valuable insight into the challenges in your life. The point of creating a visual journal is not to make every page a masterpiece. ____38____. Art journaling is completely customizable (可定制) depending on your skills and interests. Many people choose to use mixed media and decorate their pages with drawing and painting materials. ____39____. The most important thing when beginning your art journal, however, is selecting the right book. There are many considerations when it comes to picking your journal book. Size is one. If you enjoy making large drawings, for instance, then a bigger book might be best. ____40____. Since it’s a good chance you’ll be using mixed media, select a journal whose paper can handle both drawing and painting. A. An art journal is a visual diary. B. Besides, you become aware of your style. C. Another characteristic to think about is the type of pages in the book. D. This way, you can not only express yourself, but also influence others. E Others prefer sticking with a single medium that they’re comfortable with. F. But for those who are more visually-minded, an art journal is a great alternative. G. You simply need to enjoy the act of creating something without worrying how it looks. 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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On a Saturday morning, Tara and her new bridegroom, Sam, were drinking coffee when their doorbell rang.

Beaver went grocery shopping for food every day. The Animal Grocery Store was a big hole in the biggest tree of the forest, where many animals went to get food that they needed. There were three store assistants serving customers: Goat, Squirrel and Rabbit.

He asked, “Did you buy any bad food last time?” “No. The food was good. I like apples and pears, but I just wanted something different. I don’t know why. What do you recommend?” Squirrel smiled and said, “Oh, I recommend that you should buy a bag of nuts and some corn. They are healthy.” Beaver bought a bag of nuts and some corn.

Here, let’s take a look at some excellent book review s for this month. Dead Good Detectives Jenny McLachlan This is the story of a 12-year-old girl called Sid who loves playing horror games with her friends. But when she accidentally releases the ancient ghost pirate, Bones, Sid is launched into an adventure! However, there is someone hiding in the shadows, intended to send Bones back into the mysterious inn that he came from. This is a funny, exciting book that I would recommend to people who love lots of laughs. Totty Shirley Galligan To find his home, Totty the turtle goes on an impressive adventure with the help of his friends, and has different obstacles to overcome. He wakes up with a plastic bag stuck around his neck, swims through an oil spill and gets caught in a fishing net. My favourite part was when his friend, the whale, helped him out of the garbage mountain, and he was rescued by the Sea Turtle Rescue Centre. If you like sea animals and care for the environment then this is a good book for you! Fact Book of The Month: Aliens Joalda Morancy Ever wondered what incredible creatures might live beyond our planet? This mind- blowing book teaches you everything about the search for alien lifeforms in our solar system and beyond. Meet the robots sent to Mars to look for Martians, find out how to spot an advanced alien civilization and discover what really goes on at Area 51! Do alien s exist? And is it only a matter of time before we find them?! 21. Whose book will be recommended to someone who likes humorous stories? A Jenny McLachlan’s. B. Shirley Galligan’s. C. Joalda Morancy’s. D. J. K. Rowling’s. 22. Readers of Totty are expected to ___________. A. possess the ability of vivid imagination. B. get known various kinds of sea creatures. C. develop interest in lifeforms beyond the earth. D. reflect on human’s impact on marine life. 23. In which column may we find this text? A. Science and research. B. Education and learning. C. Environment and ecology. D. Literature and art. 【答案】21. A 22. D 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章是关于三个儿童书籍的书评。 21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Dead Good Detectives部分中“This is a funny, exciting book that I would recommend to people who love lots of laughs.”（这是一本有趣的、令人兴奋的书，我会推荐给喜欢笑的人）可知，该书适合喜欢幽默故事的孩子，作者为Jenny McLachlan。故选A。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据Totty部分中“He wakes up with a plastic bag stuck around his neck, swims through an oil spill and gets caught in a fishing net.”（他醒来时发现脖子上缠着一个塑料袋，他游过了漏油点，却被渔网缠住了）以及“If you like sea animals and care for the environment then this is a good book for you!”（如果你喜欢海洋动物，关心环境，那么这是一本很适合你的书!）可知，该书的写作目的是让儿童去思考人类活动对海洋生物产生的影响，故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据表格上方“Let’s take a look at some excellent book review s for this month.”（让我们来看看本月的一些优秀书评）可知，本文体裁属于书评，应是来自于文学和艺术。故选D。 B For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my “heart books”. To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school: Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write. It’s a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg’s method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The “I” in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice. This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 24. What can we learn about Writing Down the Bones from the first two paragraphs? A. It was among the list of “heart books”. B. It was recommended by her teacher. C. The author encountered it in a bookstore. D. The author treasured it on her book shelf. 25. What does the author think of Goldberg’s method? A. Unique and innovative. B. Ordinary and normal. C. Direct and typical. D. Attractive and inspiring. 26. What did the author do while writing? A. She strictly followed Goldberg’s writing steps. B. She wrote on her notebook whenever possible. C. She kept practicing through different methods. D. She imagined many characters in her fictions. 27. Which is the suitable title for the text? A. Natalie Goldberg and Her Book. B. The Start of My Writing Career. C. Confidence Found Through Writing. D. Chain Reaction Caused by A Book. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了作者在高中时读过的《Writing Down the Bones》一书，以及它对作者成为作家和发现自我的重要影响。通过这本书，作者培养了写作的习惯，进而发展出了自己的创作方式，并通过写作找到了自信和对世界的好奇心。最终，成为作家的经历使作者能够成为其他许多身份的人，如活动家、企业家、农民、烘焙师等。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it.”（不顾一切地想离开我的房子，我骑着自行车进城，走进书店。我在翻阅书架上关于写作的书时，这本书引起了我的注意。我拿起它，读了几页，就买了下来）可知作者是在书店遇到这本书，故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much.”（Goldberg的方法很简单：你选择一个主题，设定一个计时器，然后写10、15或20分钟，不停下笔。自由写作，定时写作，写作主题：任何参加过创意写作课的人可能都遇到过这些。这本书没有什么特别新颖或不寻常的地方，所以我不能说为什么它如此吸引我。）可知，作者认为Goldberg的方法是普通和正常的。故选B。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing.”（无论我在哪里，无论我在做什么，我都在记笔记。当我最终开始写小说时，我也做了同样的事情）可知，作者在写作时只要有可能就会写笔记。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer.”（有一本书从来没有出现在书架上，尽管我在高中读过它：Natalie Goldberg的《Writing Down the Bones》）、第二段中“There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer.”（这本书并没有什么特别新颖或不同寻常的地方，所以我也说不出为什么它如此吸引我。但它改变了一切。我从一个喜欢写作的人变成了一个作家。）以及最后一段“This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed.”（这种写作练习让我加入了波士顿的一个写作小组。这让我有了现在的职业。在很多方面，它让我找回了自己。成为一名作家让我成为了许多其他的东西：一个活动家，一个企业主，一个农民，一个面包师……写作是我找到自信的地方。在那里，我开始对这个世界充满好奇。从那以后，其他一切都随之而来。）可知，作者主要讲述了在高中时读过的《Writing Down the Bones》一书，以及它对作者成为作家和发现自我的重要影响。通过这本书，作者培养了写作的习惯，进而发展出了自己的创作方式，并通过写作找到了自信和对世界的好奇心。最终，成为作家的经历使作者能够成为其他许多身份的人，如活动家、企业家、农民、烘焙师等。D选项“由一本书引起的连锁反应”能够概括文章主旨，为最佳标题。故选D。 C Thomas Bogle has worked in the footwear industry for years. He also loves to run. He runs every day in the forest near his home in Colorado. But while training for a race, he couldn’t stop thinking about the bits of plastic and rubber that his shoes were shedding on the forest floor. With every step we take, our shoes leave behind an invisible trail of contaminants (污染物). These contaminants can potentially harm the soil, water and animal health. Shoes contain different types of plastics. Every year, about 500,000 tons of microplastics seep into the world’s oceans. Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic. They form as larger plastic objects break down. They can harm living things and the environment. Now, several companies are starting to develop plant-based soles (鞋底). They don’t leave plastics behind when they break down. Plant-based soles address some of these issues. They won’t shed plastic into the environment. Plus, they generate fewer toxic chemicals. But shoes made with natural materials face some of the same challenges as plastic-based shoes once they’re thrown out. Taking the shoes apart is still hard. Recycling shoes will require setting up new systems. Bogle had an idea to create an entirely plastic-free shoe outsole. He got some help from Gene Kelly. He is a professor of soil science at Colorado State University and a fellow runner. Together, Bogle and Kelly developed a shoe sole. It is made of beeswax, vegetable oils and plant products such as leaves and husks from corn and other crops. Bogle’s company, Solum, partners with farmers across the country. The farmers grow and harvest the plant materials. Then, the materials are transformed into little plant balls and blended with natural rubber to create the sole. Solum’s shoes don’t shed toxic chemicals. Instead, the soles put nutrients back into the soil as they naturally wear down over time. These days, Bogle runs, hikes and golfs in shoes with his company’s plant-based soles. “Footwear is a very hard product to fix,” he said. “It really requires completely shifting how we think about footwear and how we make footwear and the materials we use.” 28. What problems of shoes are mentioned in the passage? A. Shoes are easy to break down but nearly impossible to recycle. B. People buy new shoes every year but quite a few are thrown away. C. Plastics of shoes do harm to our environment and living things. D. Footwear industry is intensely competitive in the production of shoes. 29. How did Bogle address the shoes issues? A. By developing shoes made of natural materials. B. By asking other companies for technical support. C. By allowing local farmers to join in his research. D. By testing out his company’s shoes in running races. 30. What is the advantage of Solum’s shoes over others? A They can endure lots of wear and tear. B. They don’t shed bits of chemicals at all. C. They are cheap in materials and production. D. They bring nutrients to soil instead of plastics. 31. How do we describe Bogle? A. Modest and capable. B. Passionate and friendly. C. Creative and responsible. D. Warm-hearted and devoted. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了Thomas Bogle对鞋类行业中鞋子对环境造成污染的问题的关注，以及他如何通过开发使用天然材料制成的鞋底来解决这一问题。Bogle与他的合作伙伴共同研发了一种由蜂蜡、植物油和植物产品制成的鞋底，这种鞋底在使用过程中不会释放有毒化学物质，反而会将营养物质带回土壤中。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“With every step we take, our shoes leave behind an invisible trail of contaminants (污染物). These contaminants can potentially harm the soil, water and animal health.(我们每走一步，鞋子都会留下看不见的污染物痕迹。这些污染物可能会对土壤、水和动物健康造成潜在危害)”及第三段的“They can harm living things and the environment.(它们会伤害生物和环境)”可知，鞋子中的塑料会分解成微塑料，它们会对生物和环境造成伤害。因此，文章中提到鞋子的问题是鞋子的塑料对我们的环境和生物造成了伤害。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Bogle had an idea to create an entirely plastic-free shoe outsole. He got some help from Gene Kelly. He is a professor of soil science at Colorado State University and a fellow runner. Together, Bogle and Kelly developed a shoe sole. It is made of beeswax, vegetable oils and plant products such as leaves and husks from corn and other crops.(博格尔有一个想法，创造一个完全无塑料的鞋外底。他得到了吉恩·凯利的帮助。他是科罗拉多州立大学的土壤科学教授，也是一名跑步爱好者。博格尔和凯利一起开发了一种鞋底。它由蜂蜡、植物油和植物产品制成，如玉米和其他作物的叶子和外壳)”可知，Bogle通过开发由天然材料制成的鞋子来解决鞋子问题。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Solum’s shoes don’t shed toxic chemicals. Instead, the soles put nutrients back into the soil as they naturally wear down over time.(Solum的鞋子不会脱落有毒化学物质。相反，鞋底会随着时间的推移自然磨损，将营养物质重新放入土壤中)”可知，Solum的鞋子相比其他鞋子的优势在于它们将营养物质而不是塑料带回土壤。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But while training for a race, he couldn’t stop thinking about the bits of plastic and rubber that his shoes were shedding on the forest floor.(但在为比赛进行训练时，他无法停止思考他的鞋子掉在森林地面上的塑料和橡胶碎片。)”以及第二段“With every step we take, our shoes leave behind an invisible trail of contaminants (污染物). These contaminants can potentially harm the soil, water and animal health.(我们每走一步，鞋子都会留下看不见的污染物痕迹。这些污染物可能对土壤、水和动物健康造成潜在危害。)”可知，Bogle关注鞋子上的塑料对土壤、水和动物健康造成潜在危害，由此可知，他是一个有责任感的人；根据第五段“Bogle had an idea to create an entirely plastic-free shoe outsole. He got some help from Gene Kelly. He is a professor of soil science at Colorado State University and a fellow runner. Together, Bogle and Kelly developed a shoe sole. It is made of beeswax, vegetable oils and plant products such as leaves and husks from corn and other crops.(博格尔有一个想法，创造一个完全无塑料的鞋外底。他得到了吉恩·凯利的帮助。他是科罗拉多州立大学的土壤科学教授，也是一名跑步爱好者。博格尔和凯利一起开发了一种鞋底。它由蜂蜡、植物油和植物产品制成，如玉米和其他作物的叶子和外壳)”可知，Bogle想出了一个办法，制造一种完全没有塑料的鞋底，并与科罗拉多州立大学的土壤科学教授Gene Kelly合作，开发了一种由蜂蜡、植物油和植物产品（如玉米和其他作物的叶子和谷壳）制成的鞋底，这样做就可以保护环境。由此可推出，Bogle具有创造力。故选C。 D During Yang Zhongkai’s early years, a 500-year-old majestic ginkgo (银杏) tree that did not sprout leaves for two to three years at a stretch used to be a daily sight for him on his way to and from high school. Since villagers widely regarded the tree as having the power to make their wishes come true, they used to kneel down in front of the “lucky” tree and burn offerings under it, which led to prolonged heat exposure at its roots, stunting its growth. “Millions of such old trees are in urgent need of protection given their importance as vital biological resources and symbols of ecological civilization,” said Yang, who started the team — Zhiyue — dedicated to protecting ancient trees. “But the recording and management of ancient and famous trees nationwide commonly rely on Excel spreadsheets (电子表格), which present issues such as information silos, lack of real-time updates and incomplete content,” he said. However, things have changed of late. Yang and his team now use the artificial intelligence technology developed by Tencent Cloud to identify and register trees accurately based on individual traits and GPS tracking. “With the acceleration of a new generation of technological revolution and industrial transformation, new technologies bring more excitement to the protection of ancient trees,” Yang said. “We can now collect data on the trees’ growth, health and environment in real time, which helps us make informed decisions on how to better protect them.” “In addition to applying cutting-edge technologies such as AI and large models to assist in the development of traditional industries, the company also makes great efforts to promote the development of charitable causes through technological and platform advantages,” Wu. Yunsheng said, vice-president of Tencent Cloud, adding that “the power of technology can change the world”. 32. What does the underlined word “stunting” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Preventing. B. Boosting. C. Keeping. D. Recording. 33. What can we infer about Tencent Cloud’s new technology? A. It will replace Excel spreadsheets in the future. B. It is an effective tool to protect ancient trees. C. It will be widely used in modern industries. D. It has remarkable advantages over other AI. 34. What is Wu Yunsheng’s attitude towards the application of technology? A. Skeptical. B. Cautious. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent. 35. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To emphasize the importance of technology. B. To show technology’s aid to ancient trees. C. To introduce Tencent Cloud’s new function. D. To arouse the awareness of protecting trees. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了杨仲凯团队借助腾讯云人工智能技术保护古树的做法。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Since villagers widely regarded the tree as having the power to make their wishes come true, they used to kneel down in front of the “lucky” tree and burn offerings under it, which led to prolonged heat exposure at its roots, stunting its growth. (由于村民们普遍认为这棵树具有实现愿望的力量，他们过去常常跪在“幸运”树前，在树下焚烧祭品，这导致其根部长时间暴露在高温下，……了其生长。)”可知村民过去常在大树下燃烧贡品，导致大树的根部长时间暴露在热源之下，从而阻止了大树的生长，划线单词stunting意为“阻碍”，故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“We can now collect data on the trees’ growth, health and environment in real time, which helps us make informed decisions on how to better protect them. (现在，我们可以实时收集有关树木生长、健康和环境的数据，这有助于我们做出明智的决定，更好地保护它们。)”可知腾讯云是一种保护古树的有效工具，故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““In addition to applying cutting-edge technologies such as AI and large models to assist in the development of traditional industries, the company also makes great efforts to promote the development of charitable causes through technological and platform advantages,” Wu. Yunsheng said, vice-president of Tencent Cloud, adding that “the power of technology can change the world”. (“除了应用人工智能、大模型等前沿技术助力传统产业发展外，公司还大力通过技术和平台优势推动慈善事业发展。”腾讯云副总裁云升表示，“科技的力量可以改变世界”。)”可知，他对于科技使用的态度是支持的，故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了杨仲凯团队借助腾讯云人工智能技术保护古树的做法，以此展现人工智能对于古树保护的作用，故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 How to Keep Personal Art Journals You might have heard that keeping a journal is a great way to record your thoughts and understand your emotions.

Beaver went grocery shopping for food every day. The Animal Grocery Store was a big hole in the biggest tree of the forest, where many animals went to get food that they needed. There were three store assistants serving customers: Goat, Squirrel and Rabbit. One day Beaver came into the Animal Grocery Store. “What should I eat today, Goat?” Beaver asked Goat, who was sweeping the floor. Goat stopped and answered, “I recommend that you should buy some big, red apples and a pear. They are fresh.” Beaver bought two red apples and a pear. When Beaver got home, he ate the apples and pear. But he was not happy. He was sad but he did not know why. He felt like something was missing. Beaver went to the grocery store the next day. “Hello, Beaver. How are you?” asked Squirrel, another shop assistant who was working behind the counter that day. “I’m good now but when I got home from your store last time, I was sad. I don’t know why,” said Beaver, “I just felt very depressed.” Squirrel was worried about the food that Goat had sold to Beaver the day before. He asked, “Did you buy any bad food last time?” “No. The food was good. I like apples and pears, but I just wanted something different. I don’t know why. What do you recommend?” Squirrel smiled and said, “Oh, I recommend that you should buy a bag of nuts and some corn. They are healthy.” Beaver bought a bag of nuts and some corn. When he got home, he ate all of the nuts and corn. But he was not very happy again. Beaver did not know what was wrong. Why was he always sad when he came home from grocery shopping? He had bought good fruits, nuts and corn, but he felt like something was missing. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头句已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: The next day, Beaver went to the grocery store again. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next day, Beaver went to the grocery store, feeling very happy. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day, Beaver went to the grocery store again. “Beaver,” said Rabbit, another salesclerk working in the store, “I heard you are not happy after you eat. I recommend that you buy a big bag of carrots. I am always happy after I eat a big bag of carrots.” “Thank you for your advice. I will buy a big bag of carrots,” said Beaver. When Beaver got home, he ate the whole bag of carrots. “This is pretty good,” he thought, feeling highly happy this time. The next day, Beaver went to the grocery store, feeling very happy. “Did you like that bag of carrots, Beaver?” asked Rabbit. “Yes,” Beaver said, “Thank you for the recommendation. The carrots were great. I will buy more.” “I knew you would like them,” said Rabbit, “Guys like us with big teeth always love carrots!” He bought a big bag of carrots once more and enjoyed every bite of them, feeling extremely happy. He knew why he was greatly happy eating carrots. It was because he had large teeth, which were good for eating food like carrots. 【解析】 【详解】本文以森林杂货店店员为河狸推荐合适的食物为线索展开。山羊为河狸推荐新鲜的水果，河狸虽然喜欢吃苹果和梨，但并不开心；松鼠为河狸推荐坚果和玉米，河狸虽然吃光了这些食物，但仍不开心；而兔子为河狸推荐了胡萝卜，因为觉得像他一样长着大牙的动物都应该爱吃胡萝卜。果然，河狸特别喜欢吃胡萝卜，他非常开心，因为终于找到了适合自己吃的食物。 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，河狸又来到了杂货店。”可知，第一段可以描写杂货店店员如何为河狸推荐新的食物。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，河狸开心地来到了杂货店。”可知，第二段可以描写河狸到杂货店来感谢店员推荐的食品，并说明开心的原因。 2.续写线索：山羊为河狸推荐水果——河狸吃了并不开心——松鼠为河狸推荐坚果——河狸吃了仍不开心——兔子为河狸推荐胡萝卜——河狸吃了很开心——原因是河狸的大牙齿适合吃胡萝卜。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①买：buy/purchase ②吃：eat/consume ③推荐：recommend/suggest/propose 情绪类 ①高兴的：happy/joyful/elated/pleased ②感谢：thank/show appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] “This is pretty good,” he thought, feeling very happy this time.
