Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification. “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. Tourni recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers rather than chemicals. In 2017, Toumi consolidated her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.” By September 2021, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2025. In the next couple of years, Tourni hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco. 4. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her? A. They made her decide to leave the country. B. They helped her better understand her father. C. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others. D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher. 5. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland? A. Low rainfall. B. Soil pollution.. C. Cold weather. D. Forest damage. 6. Why did Tourni set up Acacias for All in Tunisia? A. To create job opportunities for young people. B. To help the children obtain a basic education. C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers. D. To facilitate the protection of their farmland. 7. What might the author think of Toumi’s programme? A. Promising. B. Indifferent. C. Unachievable. D. Suspicious. C The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have boosted fish population in the region. When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world were overjoyed. Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed. Yet by creating a space for dwindling tuna (金枪鱼) populations to recover, supporters argued, the reserve would benefit fisheries as well. As populations inside the reserve boundaries steadily increased, they predicted, the fish would spill over into the surrounding areas, increasing the amount of tuna available to catch. Proving that is tricky, however, as tuna can’t be counted directly. Their numbers may rise or fall for a variety of reasons other than the expansion of a reserve. But the new study, published in Science this week, strongly suggests the number of fish caught just outside the MPA is higher now than it used to be. Alan Friedlander, chief scientist for the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project, calls the study a “very careful and strict test of spillover from marine protected areas.” Importantly, says John Lynham, an environmental economist at the University of Hawaii and one of the study’s authors, the increase in tuna catches near the reserve held up even when looking at the average numbers caught by particular fishers. This shows the effect is not due to more effective : crews now fishing local waters, he explains. To account for effort, catch numbers were divided (除) by the ever-increasing number of fishing hooks in the area. Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before. “That last one, especially, was a surprise,” says Lynham,“because it is economically much more important, and there were fewer indications of an increase.” 8. Which statement is true according to the findings? A. The number of fish caught quadruples the size of that in 2016 B. The rising number of fish caught is a sign of a well-reserved area. C. Fish catching outside the reserve expanded the marine protected area. D. Enlarging the reserve may contribute to the increase in fish population. 9. How did fishers feel when the reserve was expanded? A. They felt joyful. B. They felt different. C. They felt unpleasant. D. They felt surprised. 10. How do the researchers prove the tuna population has increased? A. By figuring the average catch per hook in the area. B. By summing up the catch of more effective crews. C. By looking at the numbers caught by particular fishers. D. By detecting the number of tuna population in the surrounding area. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Tuna Population Embraces a Boost. B. Marine Protected Areas Help Fisheries. C. Local Fisheries Hold a Promising Future. D. Tuna Population Can Be Counted Scientifically. D I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. Worse , the rude proposal that social media is to blame might distract (分心) us from effectively responding to the real causes of the current mental-health crisis in young people. Researchers have searched for the effects suggested by Haidt. Our efforts have produced a mix of no small and mixed associations. Most data are correlative. When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers. We are not alone here. Several analyses and systematic reviews centralize on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. Moreover, studies from some authorities finds no evidence of intense changes associated with digital-technology use. As a psychologist studying children’s and adolescents’ mental health, I appreciate parents’ frustration (沮丧) and desire for simple answers. As a parent of adolescents, I would also like to identify a simple source for the pain this generation is reporting. There are, however, no simple answers. The beginning and development of mental disorders are driven by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors. More young people are talking openly about their mental-health struggles than ever before. But insufficient services are available to address their needs. In the United States, there is, on average, one school psychologist for every 1,119 students. We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more. 12. What is presented in The Anxious Generation? A. Scary stories affect children’s brains. B. Parents are responsible for children’s health. C. Teen’s mental illness results from screen time. D. The epidemic of mental illness is unavoidable. 13. What does “the same message ” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Many countries do research in mental health. B. Well-being and social media are closely related. C. The young are trapped in the mental-health crisis, D Social media don’t necessarily cause mental illness. 14. What is implied in the last paragraph? A. Effective actions need to be taken. B. Positive stories should be shared. C. Financial support needs to be provided. D. Broader research should be done. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To suggest ways to help those in need. B. To encourage parents to brave the crisis. C. To recommend a newly-published book. D. To give a voice to children’s mental issues. 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。 The huge high rises, loud noises, and masses of people make up a symbolic United States destination and the city millions of people call home.

When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the remaining one never got emptied often. As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns. The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help. Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours, ” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up. Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again. 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。 A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 南宁三中2023~2024学年度下学期高二期末考试 英语试题 (考试时间: 120分钟 满分: 150分) 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 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.

She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers rather than chemicals. In 2017, Toumi consolidated her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.” By September 2021, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2025. In the next couple of years, Tourni hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco. 4. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her? A. They made her decide to leave the country. B. They helped her better understand her father. C. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others. D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher. 5. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland? A. Low rainfall. B. Soil pollution.. C. Cold weather. D. Forest damage. 6 Why did Tourni set up Acacias for All in Tunisia? A. To create job opportunities for young people. B. To help the children obtain a basic education. C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers. D. To facilitate the protection of their farmland. 7. What might the author think of Toumi’s programme? A. Promising. B. Indifferent. C. Unachievable. D. Suspicious. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Sarah Toumi在童年时期目睹了突尼斯东部地区因沙漠化而导致的破坏，从而激发了她阻止沙漠扩大并帮助当地农民的热情。为了实现这个目标，她在突尼斯建立了一个名为Acacias for All的项目，通过种植刺槐来保护农业用地，并推广可持续农业实践。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. (从9岁起，她就开始在假期陪伴她来自于突尼斯的父亲去突尼斯东部的出生地，这激发了她帮助他人的热情。)”可知，Toumi去突尼斯度假的经历唤醒了她帮助他人的热情。故选C项。 5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (平均降雨量的减少和干旱严重程度的增加导致突尼斯大约75%的农业用地受到荒漠化的威胁。)”可知，降雨量少是突尼斯农田沙漠化的主要原因。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句“She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action.  (她搬到突尼斯，并建立了一个名为Acacias for All的项目，将她的可持续农业理念付诸行动。)”，最后一段中“By September 2021, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (截至2021年9月，在20个试点农场种植了13万多棵刺槐，农民记录其成活率达到60%。Tourni估计，为了保护突尼斯的农田，大约需要300万棵刺槐)”可知，她创立Acacias for All项目的目的是保护当地的农田。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“By September 2021, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (截至2021年9月，在20个试点农场种植了13万多棵刺槐，农民记录其成活率达到60%。Tourni估计，为了保护突尼斯的农田，大约需要300万棵刺槐。)”以及通读全文，整篇文章都在讲述Toumi如何为了保护Tunisia的农业用地而设立项目，而且该项目截至2021年9月，在20个试点农场种植了13万多棵刺槐，农民记录其成活率达到60%，并且该项目还能够推广可持续农业。可见作者对Toumi的项目是支持的，认为有前景的。A选项“Promising.(有前景的)”符合题意。故选A项。 C The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have boosted fish population in the region. When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world were overjoyed. Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed. Yet by creating a space for dwindling tuna (金枪鱼) populations to recover, supporters argued, the reserve would benefit fisheries as well. As populations inside the reserve boundaries steadily increased, they predicted, the fish would spill over into the surrounding areas, increasing the amount of tuna available to catch. Proving that is tricky, however, as tuna can’t be counted directly. Their numbers may rise or fall for a variety of reasons other than the expansion of a reserve. But the new study, published in Science this week, strongly suggests the number of fish caught just outside the MPA is higher now than it used to be. Alan Friedlander, chief scientist for the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project, calls the study a “very careful and strict test of spillover from marine protected areas.” Importantly says John Lynham, an environmental economist at the University of Hawaii and one of the study’s authors, the increase in tuna catches near the reserve held up even when looking at the average numbers caught by particular fishers. This shows the effect is not due to more effective : crews now fishing local waters, he explains. To account for effort, catch numbers were divided (除) by the ever-increasing number of fishing hooks in the area. Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before. “That last one, especially, was a surprise,” says Lynham,“because it is economically much more important, and there were fewer indications of an increase.” 8. Which statement is true according to the findings? A. The number of fish caught quadruples the size of that in 2016 B. The rising number of fish caught is a sign of a well-reserved area. C. Fish catching outside the reserve expanded the marine protected area. D. Enlarging the reserve may contribute to the increase in fish population. 9. How did fishers feel when the reserve was expanded? A. They felt joyful. B. They felt different. C. They felt unpleasant. D. They felt surprised. 10. How do the researchers prove the tuna population has increased? A. By figuring the average catch per hook in the area. B. By summing up the catch of more effective crews. C. By looking at the numbers caught by particular fishers. D. By detecting the number of tuna population in the surrounding area. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Tuna Population Embraces a Boost. B. Marine Protected Areas Help Fisheries. C. Local Fisheries Hold a Promising Future. D. Tuna Population Can Be Counted Scientifically. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了随着夏威夷海洋保护区的扩大，区域外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加，以及扩大保护区所带来的好处。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling(四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have boosted fish population in the region. (最近在夏威夷扩大的海洋保护区外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加。这表明，2016年保护区的规模翻了两番，可能已经增加了该地区的鱼类数量)”可知，扩大保护区的规模可能有助于鱼类种群的增加。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world were overjoyed. (当夏威夷附近的海洋国家纪念碑扩大到151万平方公里时，全世界的海洋保护主义者都欢欣鼓舞)”及第三段中的“Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed. (然而，渔民们可能会有不同的感受，因为在该地区捕鱼是不允许的)”可知，渔民对于保护区的扩张并不觉得开心，因为保护区内无法捕捞。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before. (林纳姆和同事们发现，在10年的研究中，每个鱼钩的渔获量有所增加。在扩张之后，渔民平均每年多捕获6条黄鳍金枪鱼和5条大眼金枪鱼)”可知，研究人员是通过每个鱼钩上的增加的渔获量来判断金枪鱼的数量是增长的。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.(最近在夏威夷扩大的海洋保护区外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加。这表明，2016年保护区的规模翻了两番，可能已经增加了该地区的鱼类数量)”及下文内容可知，文章主要介绍了海洋保护区的扩大会使得周边区域的渔获量增长。由此可知，B项“Marine Protected Areas Help Fisheries.(海洋保护区有助于渔业)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。 D I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. Worse , the rude proposal that social media is to blame might distract (分心) us from effectively responding to the real causes of the current mental-health crisis in young people. Researchers have searched for the effects suggested by Haidt. Our efforts have produced a mix of no, small and mixed associations. Most data are correlative. When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers. We are not alone here. Several analyses and systematic reviews centralize on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. Moreover, studies from some authorities finds no evidence of intense changes associated with digital-technology use. As a psychologist studying children’s and adolescents’ mental health, I appreciate parents’ frustration (沮丧) and desire for simple answers. As a parent of adolescents, I would also like to identify a simple source for the pain this generation is reporting. There are, however, no simple answers. The beginning and development of mental disorders are driven by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors. More young people are talking openly about their mental-health struggles than ever before. But insufficient services are available to address their needs. In the United States, there is, on average, one school psychologist for every 1,119 students. We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more. 12. What is presented in The Anxious Generation? A. Scary stories affect children’s brains. B. Parents are responsible for children’s health. C. Teen’s mental illness results from screen time. D. The epidemic of mental illness is unavoidable. 13. What does “the same message ” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Many countries do research in mental health. B. Well-being and social media are closely related. C. The young are trapped in the mental-health crisis, D. Social media don’t necessarily cause mental illness. 14. What is implied in the last paragraph? A. Effective actions need to be taken. B. Positive stories should be shared. C. Financial support needs to be provided. D. Broader research should be done. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To suggest ways to help those in need. B. To encourage parents to brave the crisis. C. To recommend a newly-published book. D. To give a voice to children’s mental issues. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文是对《焦虑一代》一书的评论，作者认为该书提出的数字技术导致儿童大脑重构和精神健康危机的观点缺乏科学依据。作者强调，精神障碍的成因复杂，需要基于科学和证据的解决方案，而不是简单归咎于社交媒体。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. (然而，这本书一再暗示数字技术正在重构我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神健康问题的流行，这一观点并没有得到科学的支持。)”可知，该书重复暗示数字技术正在重构我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神健康问题的流行。C选项“Teen’s mental illness results from screen time.(青少年的精神疾病与看屏幕时间有关。)”与该描述相一致。故选C。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers.( 随着时间的推移，他们发现社交媒体的使用并不是预测或导致抑郁症，而是已经有心理健康问题的年轻人比健康的同龄人更频繁地或以不同的方式使用这些平台。)”以及划线词后面的内容“An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. (在72个国家进行的一项分析显示，在全球范围内，幸福感和社交媒体之间没有一致的或可衡量的联系。)”可知，“同样的信息”指的是社交媒体并不一定导致心理健康问题。通过在72个国家进行的一项分析显示，在全球范围内，幸福感和社交媒体之间没有一致的或可衡量的联系。故划线词指代的是没有一致或可测量的证据表明社交媒体与幸福感之间有密切关系。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more.(我们这一代人正处于危机之中，迫切需要科学和基于证据的解决方案所能提供的最好的东西。不幸的是，我们的时间花在讲述没有研究支持的故事上，这些故事对那些需要、也应该得到更多支持的年轻人几乎没有帮助。)”可知，针对于年轻人的心理健康问题，我们正在浪费时间讲述没有研究支持的故事，而这些故事对需要帮助的年轻人并没有帮助，这暗示我们需要采取有效的行动来解决这个问题。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science.(读完《焦虑的一代》后，我不得不说些什么。这本书将会畅销，因为乔纳森·海特特讲述了一个许多父母都倾向于相信的关于儿童发展可怕的故事。然而，书中反复暗示数字技术正在重新连接我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神疾病的流行，这一观点并没有科学支持。)”以及最后一段中“Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more.(不幸的是，我们的时间花在讲述没有研究支持的故事上，这些故事对那些需要、也应该得到更多支持的年轻人几乎没有帮助。)”以及通读全文可知，整篇文章都在批评一本书的观点，并强调需要科学和证据支持的解决方案，而不应该把时间浪费在没有科学研究支持的结论中，由此表明作者的目的是引起人们对儿童心理健康问题以及真正引发其该问题的原因进行关注和理解。D选项“To give a voice to children’s mental issues.(为孩子们的心理问题发声。)”符合作者的目的。故选D。 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。 The huge high rises, loud noises, and masses of people make up a symbolic United States destination and the city millions of people call home.

When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the remaining one never got emptied often. As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns. The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help. Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours, ” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up. Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again. 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。 A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. Finally, it was time for him to do the presentation. Standing in front of several experts from Go Green, Peter was nervous in fear of screwing things up. But unbelievably, when he began to speak, everything went so smoothly. His voice was clear and influential, and his speech was logical and well-organized. Peter ended his presentation with a deep bow and went out to wait for Go Green’s decision. After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. Their ideas were approved and Go Green agreed to provide the money they needed to purchase the trash bin. Peter smiled. It meant not only their efforts paid off, but also Tubman park would restore its cleanness and tidiness. Peter and Isabel decided to tell Mrs. Evans this good news first and then worked out the next step they needed to take. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Peter和Isabel经过儿时玩耍的Tubman公园，发现公园破败不堪，垃圾满地，于是决定想办法改变其面貌。在埃文斯夫人的建议下，他们决定向环境保护组织Go Green寻求帮助。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，彼得紧张地站在大厅的后面，环境保护组织Go Green正在那里开会”可知，第一段可描写彼得向Go Green作报告的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“会后，伊莎贝尔兴奋地把这个好消息告诉了彼得”可知，第二段可描写得知Go Green同意提供帮助后，Peter和Isabel接下来的打算。 2续写线索：感到紧张——顺利完成报告——得到好消息——与埃文斯夫人分享快乐 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①弄糟：screw up/mess up ②开始：begin/start ③同意，赞成：approve/agree 情绪类 ①难以置信地：unbelievably/incredibly ②兴奋地：excitedly/with excitement 【点睛】[高分句型1] Standing in front of several experts from Go Green, Peter was nervous in fear of screwing things up.(运用了现在分词作时间状语) [高分句型2] But unbelievably, when he began to speak, everything went so smoothly.(运用了when引导时间状语从句) [高分句型3] Their ideas were approved and Go Green agreed to provide the money they needed to purchase the trash bin.(运用了省略连词的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
