【原文】M: You don’t seem to like the paintings in this room.
W: That’s right. I don’t understand the modern art and I don’t like it at all.
M: If you don’t understand it, how could you say that you don’t like it?
W: Perhaps I am a little narrow minded and conservative. I really can’t keep pace with so many changes nowadays, so I just can’t imagine that modern artists are really serious.
M: I won’t argue with you, but I think you’re being unfair. A modern artist is different from a traditional artist in his work.
W: Are you trying to tell me these strange paintings mean anything a child could paint better than that?
M: I guess there’s no point in discussing the matter any further. You have your opinion and I have mine.
W: Right. Everything has two sides. Let’s go to enjoy paintings in other rooms.
M: All right. But just like other artists, modern artists also try to get across their personal feelings about the world through paintings.
W: Yes, I should enjoy their artworks more often so I can understand them better.

【解析】
【原文】M: It seems like there’s never an end to schoolwork. However, My Homework is a student planner that can help you manage your school life. I’m Rio, the creator of My Homework. When I was in college, my biggest problem was staying organized. I went to the APP store searching for a student planner APP, but the ones available were not that useful and you had to pay for them.
So I created My Homework in 2009 before graduation and then joined a big company to go on developing it.
The APP allows you to search for classes, tests and homework. It’s free, but if you pay a small extra charge, you can visit the My Homework website and receive homework reminders. A built-in rewards system encourages kids to complete their work and then adds new homework through a new service called Keep. Till now, My Homework has grown into one of the most popular education apps in schools.

Most of us have memories from childhood that go something like this: You’re not leaving the table until you eat all your vegetables. How lucky we were to have nutritious food, even if we had to learn to like it.
According to the Houston Health Dement, for nearly one quarter of children living in Houston, Texas, the choice to eat healthily doesn’t exist. They are unable to obtain fresh produce, relying entirely on canned and packaged goods. A lack of fresh meat and produce in your diet can lead to increases in depression and obesity (肥胖) and greater risks of heart disease and cancer. A poor diet is also tied to poor performance in school for young children.
Annie Zhu was shocked to find out so many children in Houston lived in food deserts. She was also shocked to see how much fresh food supermarkets throw away every day. So she and her twin sister Shirley went to work. First, they partnered with the Houston Health Department to distribute food at community centers. With the help of a food rescue organization Second Servings, they collected surplus (过剩的) food from grocery stores and began organizing monthly markets. They even connected with human service agencies to provide help beyond food. Lastly, since fresh food needs to be picked up right away, they developed a text-messaging app Fresh Hub, which tells people when and where the markets are.
Each month, Fresh Hub organizes high school students who wear green shirts and go to set up stands of fresh produce, baked goods and packaged meats. The Zhu sisters and the green dream team have distributed over 1,500 pounds of food. And while families are collecting food, volunteers are entertaining kids with art projects that teach healthy eating.
At the end of the day, Annie says they are happy to be making a difference. “Frustration over the unfair circumstances built into society led us to meet incredible people,” says Annie. “I know I'm not alone on this journey to help the underserved-and I know my journey has only just begun!”
24. What issue in Houston do the Zhu sisters focus on?
A. Poor access to fresh food for kids. B. Kids’ dislike for green vegetables.
C. Food supplies in supermarkets. D. Childhood obesity and illness.
25. What is Fresh Hub supposed to do?
A. Serve as a healthy food provider. B. Collect fresh food from grocery stores.
C. Inform users of fresh produce available. D. Publish authoritative information on food.
26. What are the volunteers assigned to do during the event?
A. Sell fresh produce to the underserved.
B. Distribute as much free food as possible.
C. Raise awareness of a healthy diet among kids.
D. Look after kids and provide them with healthy food.
27. How does Annie Zhu feel about their efforts to help the underserved?
A. Puzzled and curious. B. Frustrated and anxious.
C. Surprised and excited. D. Delighted and satisfied.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. C 27. D
【解析】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“According to the Houston Health Dement, for nearly one quarter of children living in Houston, Texas, the choice to eat healthily doesn't exist. They are unable to obtain fresh produce, relying entirely on canned and packaged goods.(根据休斯顿健康部门的数据,居住在德克萨斯州休斯顿的近四分之一的儿童没有健康饮食的选择。他们无法获得新鲜农产品,完全依赖罐装和包装食品。)”以及下文关于双胞胎姐妹为此而进行的公益活动的介绍可知,双胞胎姐妹关注的是休斯顿当地的一些儿童很难获取新鲜事物的问题。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Lastly, since fresh food needs to be picked up right away, they developed a text-messaging app Fresh Hub, which tells people when and where the markets are.(最后,由于新鲜食品需要立即被取走,他们开发了一款短信应用Fresh Hub,它可以告诉人们市场的时间和地点。)”可知,Fresh Hub是一款可以发送短信息的应用程序,用于告诉人们集市的时间和地点,由此可知,Fresh Hub告知用户可用的新鲜农产品。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“And while families are collecting food, volunteers are entertaining kids with art projects that teach healthy eating.(在各家各户收集食物的同时,志愿者们用教导健康饮食的艺术项目来娱乐孩子们。)”可知,志愿者在活动期间被分配提高儿童对健康饮食的认识。故选C项。
27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“At the end of the day, Annie says they are happy to be making a difference. “Frustration over the unfair circumstances built into society led us to meet incredible people,” says Annie. “I know I'm not alone on this journey to help the underserved-and I know my journey has only just begun!” (在一天结束的时候,安妮说他们很高兴能有所作为。安妮说:“对社会不公平环境的沮丧让我们遇到了不可思议的人。”“我知道,在帮助弱势群体的旅程中,我并不孤单——我也知道,我的旅程才刚刚开始!”)”可推知,安妮·朱对他们帮助弱势群体付出的努力感到高兴和满意。故选D项。
C
In Kolkata, I met a flower vendor who told me he gave up selling fresh flowers years ago. He ticked off the reasons why his plastic flowers were better than the real thing: They cost less, look real, and don’t wilt (枯萎).
The miracle of plastics arrived in India recently enough that there is no Hindi word for the stuff, and in some places take-out food still comes wrapped in banana leaves. The love affair really took off in the 1990s, as the rapid growth of the global plastics industry co-occurred with the development of India’s economy. If in the U.S. the golden age of plastics ushered in (开创) the throwaway culture of convenience, in India, affordable plastic consumer goods simply made life better. Plastic storage containers, bags, and food wrap helped keep food fresh longer. Barefoot children could get cheap shoes, and inexpensive fabrics allowed them more clothes.
Yet even with the improving quality of life, the romance faded fast. Before the decade ended, India found itself swimming in plastic packaging waste that outpaced any ability to contain it. By the mid-1990s, newspaper accounts sounded the alarm. Plastic bags, handed out by the thousands in department stores in Mumbai, were “suffocating (使窒息) the city”.
The problem has since spread beyond cities to rural areas and even nature reserves. At the Rajaji National Park outside Rishikesh, a city in the Himalayan foothills made famous in the West by the Beatles, who spent several weeks there in 1968, elephants are eating plastics in dump sites. “There are many places just outside the forest where villagers throw trash out, and the wild animals go there to eat,” villager Mohammad Yusuf told me.
In nearly every nation struggling to contain plastic waste, the problem is primarily packaging. Globally, it accounts for 36 percent of the nearly 500 million tons of plastic produced annually. India’s problem has less to do with per capita consumption than lack of adequate waste collection. In the United States, a person creates an average of 286 pounds of plastic waste a year, more than six times India’s rate of 44 pounds per person. But the U.S. has a more or less functioning system of rubbish collection and disposal (处理). Trash collection rates in India are often low.
28. What does the underlined part “love affair” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Indian romance. B. The miracle of plastics.
C. The industry of plastic flowers. D. Indian’s fondness for plastic products.
29. What does the author want to show by mentioning the elephants in paragraph 4?
A. The widespread plastic pollution. B. The reasons why Rishikesh is famous.
C. The concern over national parks’ pollution. D. The forward-looking nature of news accounts.
30. What is the main problem with plastic waste in India compared to that in the U.S.?
A. The huge annual output of plastic. B. The wide use of plastic packaging.
C. The inefficient waste recycling system. D. The large plastic consumption per person.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The issue of India’s plastic pollution.
B. The significance of plastic products to Indians.
C. The plastic waste problem and its solutions in India.
D. The rise and decline of plastic consumption in India.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了印度塑料垃圾污染的严峻性。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段前两句“The miracle of plastics arrived in India recently enough that there is no Hindi word for the stuff, and in some places take-out food still comes wrapped in banana leaves. The love affair really took off in the 1990s, as the rapid growth of the global plastics industry co-occurred with the development of India’s economy.”(塑料的奇迹最近才出现在印度,以至于印度语中没有关于这种东西的词,在一些地方,外卖食品仍然是用香蕉叶包裹着的。20世纪90年代,随着全球塑料工业的快速增长,印度经济的发展,这段恋情真正开始了。)及最后三句“in India, affordable plastic consumer goods simply made life better. Plastic storage containers, bags, and food wrap helped keep food fresh longer. Barefoot children could get cheap shoes, and inexpensive fabrics allowed them more clothes.”(在印度,负担得起的塑料消费品只是让生活更美好。塑料储存容器、袋子和食品包装有助于食物保鲜更长时间。赤脚的孩子可以买到便宜的鞋子,便宜的布料可以让他们有更多的衣服。)可知,20世纪90年代,随着全球塑料工业的快速增长,塑料产品在印度也迎来了广泛的应用,给人们带来了极大的便利。故love affair(恋爱)指的就是印度人对塑料制品的喜爱和使用。故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“By the mid-1990s, newspaper accounts sounded the alarm. Plastic bags, handed out by the thousands in department stores in Mumbai, were “suffocating the city”.”(到20世纪90年代中期,报纸报道敲响了警钟。在孟买的百货商店里,成千上万的人分发到的塑料袋“让这座城市窒息”。)及第四段“The problem has since spread beyond cities to rural areas and even nature reserves. At the Rajaji National Park outside Rishikesh…elephants are eating plastics in dump sites.”(这个问题已经从城市蔓延到农村地区,甚至自然保护区。在里希凯什外的拉贾吉国家公园……大象正在垃圾堆里吃塑料。)可知,塑料污染问题已经从城市蔓延到农村地区,甚至自然保护区,列举大象的例子是为了证明塑料污染的广泛性。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段最后三句“In the United States, a person creates an average of 286 pounds of plastic waste a year, more than six times India’s rate of 44 pounds per person. But the U.S. has a more or less functioning system of rubbish collection and disposal. Trash collection rates in India are often low.”(在美国,每人每年平均制造286磅的塑料垃圾——是印度人均44磅的六倍多。但美国有一个或多或少运作的垃圾收集和处理系统。印度的垃圾回收率通常很低。)可知,和美国相比,印度的废物回收系统效率低下。故选C项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段最后一句“By the mid-1990s, newspaper accounts sounded the alarm. Plastic bags, handed out by the thousands in department stores in Mumbai, were “suffocating the city”.”(到20世纪90年代中期,报纸报道敲响了警钟。在孟买的百货商店里,成千上万的人分发到的塑料袋“让这座城市窒息”。)及第四段“The problem has since spread beyond cities to rural areas and even nature reserves. At the Rajaji National Park outside Rishikesh…elephants are eating plastics in dump sites.”(这个问题已经从城市蔓延到农村地区,甚至自然保护区。在里希凯什外的拉贾吉国家公园……大象正在垃圾堆里吃塑料。)及最后一段“India’s problem has less to do with per capita consumption than lack of adequate waste collection.”(印度的问题与其说是与人均消费有关,不如说是与缺乏足够的废物收集有关。)并结合全文内容可知,文章首先介绍了塑料产品在印度的兴起和发展,然后用大量篇幅介绍了印度塑料垃圾污染的问题。故A项“印度的塑料污染问题”可概括文章主旨。故选A项。
D
The Earth’s population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050. Experts estimate food production will have to increase by 70 percent to keep pace with that growth. Previous methods of agriculture will soon no longer be an option. According to a 2018 study, we have to turn away from meat and dairy products.
U.S. customers have proved themselves willing to test the waters. Americans spent $1.4 billion on plant-based meat in 2021, representing a market share of 2.7 percent of all meat sales. The plant-based food companies claim their burgers use less land and water and produce less greenhouse gases. But, consider the possibility that we left our most promising resource behind in the ocean. Will you swap meat for seaweed?
“I think seaweed needs branding(品牌),” says Mark Kulsdom, co-founder of the memorably-named Dutch Weed Burger. As Kulsdom explained Dutch Weed Burgers are vegetarian but for meat eaters. A decade after launching their first product, he and his partners now sell about quarter of a million burgers each year.
Ultimately, Kulsdom is striving for a culture change. “I believe we need to raise interest sometimes by using a bit of an unorthodox (非正统的) approach to things,” he adds. “When people get what they already know, it’s not that interesting. When their curiosity is awakened, that’s when new things and ideas can enter their minds.”
In 2008, researchers discovered 14,000-year-old seaweed fragments (碎片) in southern Chile that had been pressed into cakes and clearly been cooked. As they wrote in Science, all seaweed recovered at the site are excellent sources of iodine, iron, zinc, protein, hormones and a wide range of elements. Though Mark Kulsdom’s Dutch Weed Burger sounds futuristic, one could argue that they’re revisiting one of the oldest stories we know.
32. How are plant-based burgers according to the companies?
A. They are healthy. B. They are nutritious.
C. They are delicious. D. They are environmentally friendly.
33. What does the underlined word “striving” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Leaving. B. Struggling. C. Preparing. D. Waiting.
34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Chile is rich in seaweed.
B. Seaweed was the major food source in Chile.
C People have long been using seaweed as food.
D. Mark Kulsdom’s Dutch Weed Burger is too futuristic.
35. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A newspaper. B. A science fiction.
C. A travel guide. D. A textbook.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为说明文。随着地球人口的不断增加, 旧的农业方式已不能满足人们对食物的需求, 科学家将目光转向了海藻。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“The plant-based food companies claim their burgers use less land and water and produce less greenhouse gases.”(植物性食品公司声称他们的汉堡使用更少的土地和水,产生更少的温室气体。) 可知植物性食品公司认为它们的汉堡“使用较少的土地和水, 产生更少的温室气体”, 是环保的。故选D。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第四段“I believe we need to raise interest sometimes by using a bit of an unorthodox(非正统的)approach to things,” he adds. “When people get what they already know, it’s not that interesting. When their curiosity is awakened, that’s when new things and ideas can enter their minds.”(我认为我们有时需要用一些非正统的方法来提高玩家的兴趣。”“当人们得到他们已经知道的东西时,就没有那么有趣了。当他们的好奇心被唤醒时,新的事物和想法就会进入他们的脑海。)可知Kulsdom是愿意让人们对海藻食物感兴趣的, 因此推断他在努力奋斗使人们转变观念。所以划线词的意思是“奋斗”。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In 2008, researchers discovered 14,000-year-old seaweed fragments in southern Chile that had been pressed into cakes and clearly been cooked.”(2008年,研究人员在智利南部发现了1.4万年前的海藻碎片,它们被压成蛋糕,显然是煮过的。)可知,早在14000年前,人们就已经在食用海藻。由此可推知,人们长期以来一直在使用海藻作为食物。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,根据第一段“Experts estimate food production will have to increase by 70 percent to keep pace with that growth. Previous methods of agriculture will soon no longer be an option. According to a 2018 study, we have to turn away from meat and dairy products. ”(专家估计,粮食产量必须增加70%才能跟上增长的步伐。以前的农业方法将很快不再是一种选择。根据2018年的一项研究,我们必须远离肉类和乳制品。)可知,随着地球人口的不断增加, 旧的农业方式已不能满足人们对食物的需求, 科学家将目光转向了海藻。所以短文属于食品生产类的。最可能出现在报纸上。故选A项。

【36题详解】
上文“With the digital revolution, people’s lives are being transformed. The mobile phone is a symbol of this development. Nearly everyone uses mobile phones, as they allow us to complete modern tasks conveniently and effectively.(随着数字革命,人们的生活正在发生改变。手机是这一发展的一个象征。几乎每个人都使用手机,因为它们能让我们方便、有效地完成现代任务)”讲述了手机带来的益处,下文第二段“Mobile phones are a threat to our health.(手机对我们的健康是一种威胁)”,第三段“It’s also true that too much use of mobile phones can make us cold and distant.(过度使用手机会让我们冷漠和疏远也是真的)”等讲述了手机带来的不好之处,因此推断空处承上启下,B项“然而,我们不应该忽视它们的不良影响。”符合语境,与上文是转折关系,引出下文内容,故选B。
【37题详解】
上文“Mobile phones are a threat to our health.(手机对我们的健康是一种威胁)”说明手机给健康带来的坏处,G项中的“make us passive and ignore physical exercise”符合语境,下文“This will cause overweight and some other problems.(这将导致超重和其他一些问题)”中的this指代上文内容,说明长期使用手机往往会让我们消极,忽视体育锻炼,将会导致超重等健康问题,因此G项“长时间使用它们往往会让我们消极,忽视体育锻炼”符合语境。故选G。
【38题详解】
上文“Our dependence on phones reduces our opportunities for face-to-face communication.(我们对手机的依赖减少了面对面交流的机会。)”讲述手机让我们面对面交流的机会减少,因此推断影响了我们的交流能力,因此推断A项“它会使我们的人际沟通能力受损。”符合语境,故选A。
【39题详解】
上文“They may include learning, playing sports, going sightseeing and so on.(它们可能包括学习,运动,去观光等等。)”陈述了一些活动,F项中的“The activities”与之呼应,因此推断F项“这些活动对我们的身心都有好处。”符合语境,说明这些活动带来的益处,故选F。
【40题详解】
分析文章结构可知,空处应是上文的总结,根据下文“It is certainly convenient, but it also encourages us to be lazy about our physical health and our relationships with the people closest to us. Wouldn’t it be a good idea, once in a while, to turn off the phone and step out into the country, to enjoy the scenery and in the meantime get some exercise with the people we love?(它当然是方便的,但它也让我们没工夫关心我们的身体健康,疏于与我们最亲近的人的关系。偶尔关掉手机,走到郊外,一边欣赏风景,一边和我们爱的人一起运动,这不是一个好主意吗?)”可推断,本段讲述手机既有好处也有坏处,因此推断C项“总之,手机既有积极的一面也有消极的一面。”符合语境,总结上文,总领下文,故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国和日本水墨画的历史及其不同特点。
【56题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:它于1185年从中国传入日本,此后一直在发展。空处缺谓语动词,根据时间状语“in 1185”可知,用一般过去时,主语“it”和“introduce”之间是被动关系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是第三人称单数,故填was introduced。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:中国水墨画的特点是轮廓分明,而日本水墨画被称为“sumie”,强调色彩渐变和模糊的笔触。句中已有谓语动词“emphasizes”,故空处需填非谓语动词,“Japanese ink painting”和“sumie”之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。故填called。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意:研究人员猜测这是因为中国艺术家的作品使用硬水(矿物质含量高),而日本艺术家使用软水(矿物质含量低)。短语“due to”表示“因为,由于”。故填to。
【59题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在日本,艺术家的思维方式和美的概念决定了成品应该简单,切中要害,不要过于写实。空处引导限制性定语从句,从句缺主语,先行词是“the finished piece”,指物,故用which或that引导从句。故填which或that。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意:通过研究他们的作品,我们可以学到很多关于艺术家的东西,包括他们的个性和人生观。单数名词“artist”前需用冠词来修饰,此处表示泛指,artist以元音因素开头。故填an。
【61题详解】
考查名词。句意:通过研究他们的作品,我们可以学到很多关于艺术家的东西,包括他们的个性和人生观。根据“their”及“and views”可知,空处需填名词复数,表示“他们的个性”。故填personalities。
【62题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在日本,毛笔的中间刷毛是用坚硬的动物毛制成的。根据“bristles”可知,空处需填形容词作定语,修饰名词。故填central。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它们被柔软的纤维(如羊毛)包围,从而可以画出粗细分明的线条。句中已有谓语动词“are surrounded”,故空处需填非谓语动词,make与前句构成主动关系,故用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。
【64题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:相比之下,水墨画的画笔几乎不含硬毛,分为几个类型,每个类型都有不同的用途。根据“several”可知,空处需填名词复数。故填types。
【65题详解】
考查副词。句意:你通常需要各种笔刷来创作一幅真正的日本水墨画。空处需填副词作状语,修饰动词“need”。故填generally。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When we were little, my younger brother Daniel and I had a special kind of relationship. I scared him, and he would cry. I don’t remember exactly why I thought scaring him was so funny. It was probably because of the fact that when I ran out and shouted “boo”, especially if I hid well and got him as he wandered past, lost in his three-year-old thoughts, he would jump into the air like a shocked frog.
This method provided years of youthful fun, but over time I found it increasingly harder to scare my little brother. He was just getting too old to be frightened. I tried to change my strategies, but failed.
Sadly, all good things must end. I announced peace and said sorry to my younger brother and he took it very well. I should have realized that I wouldn’t get away with my previous bad behavior so easily. I would pay for what I did. Finally, I was shocked and frightened by Daniel.
One afternoon, Daniel was racing down a steep (陡峭的) hill on a bike. All of a sudden, the handlebars (车把手) fell off on his hands. He had no helmet (头盔) on. He fell onto the shoulder of the road.
Daniel lay there with blood flowing. After a while, his friends arrived and managed to send him to the nearest hospital. They called the rest of my family, except for me.
When I came home from school, I found an empty house. It didn’t surprise me since it was normal in my family. Mom and Dad often worked late, and Daniel usually stayed at a friend’s house in the afternoons. My older brother Fred usually showed up by dinnertime. I liked having the quiet house all to myself. It meant I could listen to my music as loud as I wanted. On that day, however, I couldn’t pay attention to my music. Somehow, I felt so worried and unhappy.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When it was getting really late, Fred came home.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I was frightened to see that Daniel lost his teeth completely.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
When it was getting really late, Fred came home. He told me everyone was at the hospital and that Daniel had an accident. At first, I didn’t feel anything serious since Daniel often had small accidents and injuries. “He’s seriously injured,” Fred continued. Suddenly, I was frightened. “How serious?” I asked. Yet he just told me how he had the accident. That night, it was the first time that I had been terribly scared and concerned about Daniel. The next day, I rushed to the hospital.
I was frightened to see that Daniel lost his teeth completely. His skin was horribly scarred, and his face was swollen-black, blue and red. Heart-broken, I cried. I was afraid that he wouldn’t recover. Amazingly, he finally recovered. His porcelain teeth were perfect; his skin healed without even the hint of a scar. One day, seeing my younger brother who had recovered his health, I said, “I won’t scare you anymore, so don’t scare me any more, dear Daniel.” Then I hugged him tightly, afraid that he’d suffer again and that I’d lose him.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了作者从小便喜欢吓唬自己的弟弟Daniel,总是把他吓哭。但随着Daniel的长大,作者的吓唬不再管用了,便决定与弟弟握手言和。但有一天,弟弟骑自行摔倒受伤,这件事使作者感到担心害怕,同时也对兄弟情谊有了更深的认识。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“天已经很晚了,Fred回家了。”可知,第一段可描写作者得知弟弟发生了事故及反应。
②由第二段首句内容“看到Daniel的牙齿完全掉光了,我吓坏了。”可知,第二段可描写作者看到Daniel受伤的情形及感受。
2.续写线索:吓唬弟弟——弟弟受伤——感到害怕——看望弟弟——反思自我——和弟弟和好
3.词汇激活
行为类
①告诉:tell sb/let sb know/inform sb
②奔向:rush to/ dash toward
③看见,发现:see/spot/find
情绪类
①感到害怕:be frightened /feel frightened/feel scared
②担忧某人:be concerned about/be worried about
【点睛】[高分句型1] At first, I didn’t feel anything serious since Daniel often had small accidents and injuries.(运用了since引导的原因状语从句)
[高分句型2] Then I hugged him tightly, afraid that he’d suffer again and that I’d lose him.(运用了that引导的宾语从句)

Most of us have memories from childhood that go something like this: You’re not leaving the table until you eat all your vegetables. How lucky we were to have nutritious food, even if we had to learn to like it.
According to the Houston Health Dement, for nearly one quarter of children living in Houston, Texas, the choice to eat healthily doesn’t exist. They are unable to obtain fresh produce, relying entirely on canned and packaged goods. A lack of fresh meat and produce in your diet can lead to increases in depression and obesity (肥胖) and greater risks of heart disease and cancer. A poor diet is also tied to poor performance in school for young children.
Annie Zhu was shocked to find out so many children in Houston lived in food deserts. She was also shocked to see how much fresh food supermarkets throw away every day. So she and her twin sister Shirley went to work. First, they partnered with the Houston Health Department to distribute food at community centers. With the help of a food rescue organization Second Servings, they collected surplus (过剩的) food from grocery stores and began organizing monthly markets. They even connected with human service agencies to provide help beyond food. Lastly, since fresh food needs to be picked up right away, they developed a text-messaging app Fresh Hub, which tells people when and where the markets are.
Each month, Fresh Hub organizes high school students who wear green shirts and go to set up stands of fresh produce, baked goods and packaged meats. The Zhu sisters and the green dream team have distributed over 1,500 pounds of food. And while families are collecting food, volunteers are entertaining kids with art projects that teach healthy eating.
At the end of the day, Annie says they are happy to be making a difference. “Frustration over the unfair circumstances built into society led us to meet incredible people,” says Annie. “I know I'm not alone on this journey to help the underserved-and I know my journey has only just begun!”
24 What issue in Houston do the Zhu sisters focus on?
A. Poor access to fresh food for kids. B. Kids’ dislike for green vegetables.
C. Food supplies in supermarkets. D. Childhood obesity and illness.
25. What is Fresh Hub supposed to do?
A. Serve as a healthy food provider. B. Collect fresh food from grocery stores.
C. Inform users of fresh produce available. D. Publish authoritative information on food.
26. What are the volunteers assigned to do during the event?
A. Sell fresh produce to the underserved.
B. Distribute as much free food as possible.
C. Raise awareness of a healthy diet among kids.
D Look after kids and provide them with healthy food.
27. How does Annie Zhu feel about their efforts to help the underserved?
A. Puzzled and curious. B. Frustrated and anxious.
C. Surprised and excited. D. Delighted and satisfied.
C
In Kolkata, I met a flower vendor who told me he gave up selling fresh flowers years ago. He ticked off the reasons why his plastic flowers were better than the real thing: They cost less, look real, and don’t wilt (枯萎).
The miracle of plastics arrived in India recently enough that there is no Hindi word for the stuff, and in some places take-out food still comes wrapped in banana leaves. The love affair really took off in the 1990s, as the rapid growth of the global plastics industry co-occurred with the development of India’s economy. If in the U.S. the golden age of plastics ushered in (开创) the throwaway culture of convenience, in India, affordable plastic consumer goods simply made life better. Plastic storage containers, bags, and food wrap helped keep food fresh longer. Barefoot children could get cheap shoes, and inexpensive fabrics allowed them more clothes.
Yet even with the improving quality of life, the romance faded fast. Before the decade ended, India found itself swimming in plastic packaging waste that outpaced any ability to contain it. By the mid-1990s, newspaper accounts sounded the alarm. Plastic bags, handed out by the thousands in department stores in Mumbai, were “suffocating (使窒息) the city”.
The problem has since spread beyond cities to rural areas and even nature reserves. At the Rajaji National Park outside Rishikesh, a city in the Himalayan foothills made famous in the West by the Beatles, who spent several weeks there in 1968, elephants are eating plastics in dump sites. “There are many places just outside the forest where villagers throw trash out, and the wild animals go there to eat,” villager Mohammad Yusuf told me.
In nearly every nation struggling to contain plastic waste, the problem is primarily packaging. Globally, it accounts for 36 percent of the nearly 500 million tons of plastic produced annually. India’s problem has less to do with per capita consumption than lack of adequate waste collection. In the United States, a person creates an average of 286 pounds of plastic waste a year, more than six times India’s rate of 44 pounds per person. But the U.S. has a more or less functioning system of rubbish collection and disposal (处理). Trash collection rates in India are often low.
28. What does the underlined part “love affair” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Indian romance. B. The miracle of plastics.
C. The industry of plastic flowers. D. Indian’s fondness for plastic products.
29. What does the author want to show by mentioning the elephants in paragraph 4?
A. The widespread plastic pollution. B. The reasons why Rishikesh is famous.
C. The concern over national parks’ pollution. D. The forward-looking nature of news accounts.
30. What is the main problem with plastic waste in India compared to that in the U.S.?
A. The huge annual output of plastic. B. The wide use of plastic packaging.
C. The inefficient waste recycling system. D. The large plastic consumption per person.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The issue of India’s plastic pollution.
B. The significance of plastic products to Indians.
C. The plastic waste problem and its solutions in India.
D. The rise and decline of plastic consumption in India.
D
The Earth’s population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050. Experts estimate food production will have to increase by 70 percent to keep pace with that growth. Previous methods of agriculture will soon no longer be an option. According to a 2018 study, we have to turn away from meat and dairy products.
U.S. customers have proved themselves willing to test the waters. Americans spent $1.4 billion on plant-based meat in 2021, representing a market share of 2.7 percent of all meat sales. The plant-based food companies claim their burgers use less land and water and produce less greenhouse gases. But, consider the possibility that we left our most promising resource behind in the ocean. Will you swap meat for seaweed?
“I think seaweed needs branding(品牌),” says Mark Kulsdom, co-founder of the memorably-named Dutch Weed Burger. As Kulsdom explained Dutch Weed Burgers are vegetarian but for meat eaters. A decade after launching their first product, he and his partners now sell about quarter of a million burgers each year.
Ultimately, Kulsdom is striving for a culture change. “I believe we need to raise interest sometimes by using a bit of an unorthodox (非正统的) approach to things,” he adds. “When people get what they already know, it’s not that interesting. When their curiosity is awakened, that’s when new things and ideas can enter their minds.”
In 2008, researchers discovered 14,000-year-old seaweed fragments (碎片) in southern Chile that had been pressed into cakes and clearly been cooked. As they wrote in Science, all seaweed recovered at the site are excellent sources of iodine, iron, zinc, protein, hormones and a wide range of elements. Though Mark Kulsdom’s Dutch Weed Burger sounds futuristic, one could argue that they’re revisiting one of the oldest stories we know.
32. How are plant-based burgers according to the companies?
A They are healthy. B. They are nutritious.
C. They are delicious. D. They are environmentally friendly.
33. What does the underlined word “striving” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Leaving. B. Struggling. C. Preparing. D. Waiting.
34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Chile is rich in seaweed.
B. Seaweed was the major food source in Chile.
C. People have long been using seaweed as food.
D. Mark Kulsdom’s Dutch Weed Burger is too futuristic.
35. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A newspaper. B. A science fiction.
C. A travel guide. D. A textbook.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When we were little, my younger brother Daniel and I had a special kind of relationship. I scared him, and he would cry. I don’t remember exactly why I thought scaring him was so funny. It was probably because of the fact that when I ran out and shouted “boo”, especially if I hid well and got him as he wandered past, lost in his three-year-old thoughts, he would jump into the air like a shocked frog.
This method provided years of youthful fun, but over time I found it increasingly harder to scare my little brother. He was just getting too old to be frightened. I tried to change my strategies, but failed.
Sadly, all good things must end. I announced peace and said sorry to my younger brother and he took it very well. I should have realized that I wouldn’t get away with my previous bad behavior so easily. I would pay for what I did. Finally, I was shocked and frightened by Daniel.
One afternoon, Daniel was racing down a steep (陡峭的) hill on a bike. All of a sudden, the handlebars (车把手) fell off on his hands. He had no helmet (头盔) on. He fell onto the shoulder of the road.
Daniel lay there with blood flowing. After a while, his friends arrived and managed to send him to the nearest hospital. They called the rest of my family, except for me.
When I came home from school, I found an empty house. It didn’t surprise me since it was normal in my family. Mom and Dad often worked late, and Daniel usually stayed at a friend’s house in the afternoons. My older brother Fred usually showed up by dinnertime. I liked having the quiet house all to myself. It meant I could listen to my music as loud as I wanted. On that day, however, I couldn’t pay attention to my music. Somehow, I felt so worried and unhappy.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When it was getting really late, Fred came home.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I was frightened to see that Daniel lost his teeth completely.
