(2024届广东省东苑市七校联考)I don't think I can recall a time when I wasn't aware of the
beauty of the ocean. Growing up in Australia, I had the good fortune of having the sea at my
side. The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay, I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel
the ground with my feet anymore.
For my 1oth birthday, my sister and I were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef. There were
fish in different colors, caves and layers of coral(珊瑚). They made such an impression on me.
When I learned that only one percent of Australia's Coral Sea was protected, I was shocked.
Australian marine(海洋 的)life is particularly important because the reefs(暗礁) have more
marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the world's reefs are
considered healthy.
This statistic(数据) is depressing, so it's important for us to do everything to protect
them. The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action. I've
become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine
park in the world. It would serve as a place where the ocean's species will all have a safe place
D
forever.
Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the
movement. Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who
grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.
1. What can we learn about the author from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?

C. He never went back to his hometown.
D. He had a wonderful impression of Halfmoon Bay.
2. What is Australian marine life like according to the second paragraph?
A. It is escaping from the Coral Sea gradually.
B. It depends on reefs for living greatly.
C. It may be faced with danger.
D. It is protected better than that in other oceans.
137
3. What is the aim of the Protect Our Coral Sea activity?
A. To contribute to a complete ecosystem.
B. To prevent more marine species being endangered
C. To set up a large nature reserve for reefs.
D. To raise more teenagers' environmental awareness.
4. Why do Angus and the author create a little video?
A. To ask more people to take action to protect the marine species.
B. To inspire more people to study the secret of the ocean
C. To share their childhood experiences about the ocean.
D. To bring back to people their memory of ocean species.
(2024届广东省揭阳市高三上学期质量检测)Asanyone inmainland Britainwho has ever
attempted to grow berries or nuts or indeed feed the birds will know, doing so is equal to an
opening move in a game of chess with local grey squirrels, a game the squirrels tend to win. Grey
squirrels are also fond of the occasional bird's egg or the young bird, and enjoy tearing and eating
the bark of young broad leaf trees, which can either kill the trees or leave them open to
infection. This, apart from affecting biodiversity and landscape, harms the wood industry. The
loss is not insignificant: f37 a year in England and walks.
Grey squirrels, introduced from North America in 1876, have almost replaced native red
squirrels by competing them for food and habitat. They are larger and stronger, and resistant to
squirrel pox virus, while reds are not. About 3 million grey squirrels now live in the UK; the
International Union for Conservation of Nature lists the grey squirrel among the top 1oo most
harmful invasive(人侵的) species in the world.
In Britain, much effort and inventiveness has been made in stopping grey squirrel progress.
from trapping and shooting them, to releasing pine martens into their habitats. The latest move.
a workable system for which was thought to be a decade away, is forbidding the breeding(繁殖)
of grey squirrels. However, legal challenge brought so many delays that the invasive grey
squirrel population expanded to an unmanageable level and wiping out were abandoned. The main
issue in Britain was thought to be more technological than legal designing a drug that targets
only grey squirrels to prevent their breeding. Another possibility in the years ahead is to use
DNA editing to ensure grey female are born unable to give birth.
Grey squirrels have now been here for nearly 15o years. They do actively threaten another
species in Britain. There is a strong argument that ecosystems change. In fact, that is their
essential nature, and it is unrealistic to stop it. The attraction of controlling the breeding
methods of grey squirrels is that they are less inhumane, and aim for balance rather than
uprooting.
138
5. What does the author focus on in paragraph 1?
A. The harm from grey sauirrels.
B. The eating habits of grey squirrels.
C. The effect of grey squirrels on industry.
D. The game between the British and grey squirrels.
6. What led to the victory of grey sauirrels over reds?
A. Their huge number.
B. Their unique origins.
C. Their breeding ability.
D. Their physical qualities.
7. What is the main difficulty in removing grey squirrels in Britain?
A. Less labour.
B. Shortage of money.
C. Imperfect law.
D. Lack of technology.
8. What is the author's attitude to forbidding the breeding of grey squirrels?
B. Objective.
C. Favorable.
A.Unclear.
D. Doubtful.

(2023·新课标全国 II 卷)As cities balloon with growth,access to nature for people living in
urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you're lucky, there might be a pocket park near where
you live, but it's unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild
Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans, but a new study
shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.
The research team focused on a large urban park. They surveyed several hundred park-
goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with
nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding(编码) experiences
into different categories. For example, one participant's experience of "We sat and listened to the
waves at the beach for a while" was assigned the categories"sitting at beach" and "listening to
waves.”
Across the 32o submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a "nature language"
began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most
often as important to visitors. These include encountering wildlife, walking along the edge of
water, and following an established trail.
Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and
take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the
experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a
weekend hike in the park. Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more domestie
form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break
“We're trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back
into our daily lives. And for that to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can
interact with it,"said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study.
139
9. What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?
A. Pocket parks are now popular.
B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.
C. Many cities are overpopulated.
D. People enjoy living close to nature.
10. Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories?
A. To compare different types of park-goers
B. To explain why the park attracts tourists
C. To analyze the main features of the park.
D. To find patterns in the visitors' summaries.
11. What can we learn from the example given in Paragraph 5?
A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.
B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.
C. The same nature experience takes different forms.
D. The nature language enhances work performance.
12. What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn?
A. Language study.
B. Environmental conservation.
C. Public education.
D. Intercultural communication

(2024届山西省太原市高三模拟)When Alexia Lecleroq was little,she remembered being
yelled at for playing outside in the acid rain. she remembered the city was shutting down because
of poor air quality. At an early age, she saw the pollution and health consequences and realized
they were having a big effect on her health and growth, and this set off her interest in becoming
a social environmental activist. She says, “Climate and environmental justice have become a
personal and pressing issue.” It also made clear something that has since been the foundation for
all her activism: connection matters.
It's why she co-founded two nonprofits -
Start: Empowerment and the Colorado River
Conservancy, engaging student volunteers to make climate education public. It's why she pushed
to bring clean water to East Austin, Texas, where her family lived at that time, and had
poisonous tank farms( 油罐区) relocated away from residential neighborhoods
Last year, the WWF awarded her the 2o22 Conservation Leadership Award that honors the
people who push the envelope in environmental conservation. Alexia made herself worthy of the
award by demonstrating what a youngster could create with new ideas and her ongoing efforts in
the field. That same year, she co-authored a piece in Teen Vugue about why we can't "influence"
our way out of the climate crisis and we need more grassroots organizations.
She shared in an interview,"I grew up with a very collectivist belief and this is what I have
been impressing on the community because we aren't separate.” As a longtime social-
environmental justice organizer, she has gained a lot. A key concept underpins all of Alexia's

effort: We're connected to the land and to each other. "I seek to develop my educational
leadership skills. Youth in community should be empowered to make a difference." she added.

don't know what moved me to do so today, I was heading from North Platte to Brady and he was
just outside of North Platte. He jumped in and said, "Thanks for stopping." I said,"No
problem, I'm going to Brady about 23 miles up the road, and I'll take you that far."
As we were conversing, I noticed he smelt of alcohol. I also noticed his wrinkled, sun
darkened and unshaven face, his messy hair and clothes. But what I noticed most was his clear.
large, blue eyes. They say the eves are the window to the soul, and I believe it, if you look
closely, you can pretty much tell the kind of soul a person has through their eyes. His eyes were
almost indescribable. They were so spellbinding, not a bit of hate in them. Looking at his very
rough appearance, I could tell he'd been down a very hard road. Somehow, despite the road he
had been down, there was no hate in his eyes, only love.
I asked him if he wanted a smoke, and he said yes, so I gave him one, then I let him keep
the whole pack, for which he seemed genuinely grateful. I started asking him where he was
from, where he was heading, whether he had a family, etc. He told me he had been on the road
for six days, coming from Arizona where he had recently had a heart attack and heart surgery.
He was pretty much healed up but couldn't find work. He was heading back to his birthplace of
Kansas City, which is where I was born as well. He said he lost his wife to a brain tumor ten
vears ago, and that he never had kids because his wife couldn't have any, We talked the rest of
the way, and I had a feeling that there was something about this guy that I couldn't put my
finger on, but it was something special.
