His family worried as he became increasingly distant, his eyes glued to his phone’s screen. Soon his grade slipped from an A to a B. However, Antonio, 13, managed to pull away from social media addiction, and his family noticed the shift. He started playing tennis again and going for walks with his dad. He and his sister Angelina, 15, joined a group spending the last year creating videos and brochures on mental health and social media. Adolescents in the group have dealt with social media addiction as the platforms they frequented fed them uncensored (未经审核的) streams of content. Through the Los Angeles Public Library’s Teens Leading Change initiative, a group of teenagers created public service announcements and brochures that offer tips on how they and their peers can maintain healthful habits online. One afternoon, the teens gathered at the library for one final meet-up before they presented their efforts to family and friends. Emily Meehan, a young adult librarian, guided them through their planned talking points. “What’s one way to use social media in a healthy and mindful way?” Meehan asked. “While social media causes lots of issues and stuff, people have also been using it to counteract that bad stuff,” Shira Cohen, a group member, replied. “Yes, body positivity,” Meehan said, nodding. On a Saturday afternoon, the group presented their project to proud parents. They offered advice on navigating social media responsibly: don’t use the phone before going to bed, set a limit on social media use, practice gratitude... Jerry Chow, Antonio’s father, said that he was glad to see them take the lead in the conversation about social media and understanding its effects. Meehan said,“ the project has proved the teens are seeing how social media affects their lives and their peers’ lives, and they aren’t going to have that. They want to do something about it.” 4. What do we know about Antonio Chow? A. He was fond of classic movies and cars. B. His grades hardly changed after the phone addiction. C. He removed social media addiction with his peers’ help. D. His experience inspired him to join a group to help others. 5. What did the group focus on? A. Ways to use social media appropriately. B. Ways to help adolescents keep mental health. C. Ways to develop good study habits at school. D. Ways to make public service announcements. 6. What does the underlined “counteract” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Accuse. B. Tolerate. C. Prevent. D. Distinguish. 7. What can we learn from the passage? A. Shira Cohen disagreed with Emily Meehan. B. Emily Meehan offered guidance to the group. C. Jerry Chow was doubtful about what Antonio did. D. Angelina helped her brother break the addiction. C The Oceans in Depth series from the University of Chicago Press aims to place “the ocean at the center of our narratives (叙述) about the past.” Wilko Graf von Hardenberg’s new book on the history of sea level, Sea Level: A History, is no different. In it, von Hardenberg, a historian of the environment and science, describes the pursuit of a standardized definition of sea level through the history of geology, oceanography, hydrography and coastal engineering. What emerges is a slim volume that raises big questions about the nature of global science in the modern age. The book is divided into two major sections. The first three chapters tell the history of debates surrounding the development of a standardized mean sea level. These take the reader from early German mathematical theories of sea level subsidence (下沉) through the debates about geological and oceanographic processes. In the next section, von Hardenberg shows how the development of standard ideas of sea level became a basis for scientific and public debates about the history and future of shifting coastlines. The final chapter brings the discussion into the present, with a chapter devoted to current debates about sea level. One of the most interesting clues in the book is related to technology. The making of an international mean required the standardization of measurement technologies. According to the author,“ the history of the assessment of sea level is part of a broader development toward the reform and unification of reference points and metrics.” This history includes tracing (追溯) instrumentation from barometry (气压测定法) to tide gauges (测量仪器) and satellites. Technology is not replaced, reveals von Hardenberg. New methods develop, built upon the infrastructure of older technologies still being used. For instance, the first self-registering (自动记录的) tidal gauge was equipped at the Sheerness, England, dockyard in 1831, and up to a third of all gauging stations throughout Europe still used simple scaled gauges in 1890. Sea Level is a powerful reminder that examining the history of scientific values can shed light on both the structure of modern science and its impact on the near future. This book is well written, and informative without using any unnecessary words and it is a strong example of what ocean history has to offer. 8. Why does the author mention the Oceans in Depth series in Paragraph 1? A. To define sea level. B. To introduce the topic. C. To give examples of ocean history. D. To compare the contents of the books. 9. What is presented in the first section of the book ? A. The future of shifting coastlines. B. The influence of sea level subsidence. C. The basis for scientific and public debates. D. The debates about geological and oceanographic processes. 10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The highlight of the book. B. The progress of technology. C The application of old technology. D. The background of writing the book. 11. What does the author of the passage like about Sea Level? A. Its humorous tone. B. Its brief language. C. Its writing structure. D. Its traditional perspective. D Recent discoveries published in Science Advances have revealed a native plant gene that enables researchers to more effortlessly control the attractive glow of bioluminescent (生物发光的) plants. This gene, which varies across different plant species, allows for the redirection of living energy into organic light, offering a natural source of lighting for homes, gardens, and beyond. The study received support from Light Bio a pioneer in the development of bioluminescent plants, which is dedicated to promoting greater connection and enjoyment of plants through the delightful appeal of living light. The latest research builds upon earlier findings. Prior approaches for creating bioluminescent plants involved including five genes obtained from fungi (菌类). In the new findings, a single gene native to plants can effectively replace two of the fungal genes. The plant gene’s smaller size and simpler biological requirements enhance its functionality for diverse applications. The smaller gene plays a vital role, acting as a bridge between plant metabolism (新陈代谢) and light production. This connection allows the plant’s inner dynamics to be translated into a constantly changing view of natural light. Bioluminescent plants have gained huge popularity among the public. Light Bio recently began taking orders for a bioluminescent petunia (矮牵牛花) under the brand Firefly TM Petunia, which is selling fast. The company selected the petunia as its first offering due to its popularity as a decorative plant. It recently announced that their plants glow up to 100 times brighter than previously possible, with the petunia standing out as the brightest. Known for their ease of being planted and flowering, petunias make an ideal choice for this innovative enhancement. In partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks, Light Bio envisions future plants to be at least ten times brighter, with an expanded range of varieties and colors. Beyond the sheer delight these glowing plants provide, the foundational science offers great insights into plant molecular physiology (分子生理学). The cooperative teams are confident that discoveries from this research will lead to significant progress in essential fields such as crop development and disease resistance. 12. What is the function of the gene native to plants? A. It makes an artificial source available. B. It redirects living energy into colorful light. C. It remains unchanged across different plant species. D. It helps keep the glow of bioluminescent under control. 13. What can be known from paragraph 2? A. A gene native to plants is equal to a fungal gene. B. Present approaches include five genes from fungi. C. Light Bio takes the lead in the study of tree plants. D. Early findings lay a foundation for the latest research. 14. What contributes to the petunia’s being selected as the first offering? A. Its inadequate brightness. B. Its easily being grown. C. Its function of decoration. D. Its creative way of flowering. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Native Genes Make Glowing Plants B. Glowing Plants Gain More Popularity C. New Advances Help Grow Glowing Plants D. Discoveries Promote Progress in Essential Fields 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。 At the peak of achievement, Olympians have trained their entire lives to reach their goal of standing on the winner’s platform.

Colored rice poured out of Manju’s paper cone (纸锥) and showered across the floor. “I’m sorry. I cut it too much.” he told his grandmother, Nanima. He rushed to clean up the rice. Would Nanima still let him help with the rangoli (地画)? The rangoli represented good luck for a new year and Nanima made one every Diwali (排灯节). First, she would draw on the floor with chalk. Then, she would fill the drawing with uncooked colored rice without any gaps. This year, Manju was old enough to help. He stood on one side of rangoli, while Nanima the other side. But so far, he’d only made a mess. “ Don’t worry,” Nanima said gently, smiling at him.“ It takes some practice.” Manju tried again. He made a new cone and filled it with rice. This time, he cut it carefully. Rice flowed out immediately.“ It works!” Side by side, they made rice move out of the con e across the drawing. After a while, Manju glanced over at Nanima. He frowned (皱眉) with disappointment.“ You’ve finished a lot. I’ve done hardly any.”“ You’ re doing a good job,” Nanima said with a smile.“ Gaps bring bad luck. But your side looks nice and tight.” Manju kept working. Sometimes his rice moved very quickly and lightly outside the drawing. Sometimes he used the wrong color. Sometimes he touched the outline carelessly. It became so unclear that Nanima had to redraw it. But slowly, the bright patterns of rice was transformed into a beautiful peacock (孔雀). All of a sudden, the phone rang. “I’ll be right back in a moment,” Nanima said as she left to answer it. Manju admired the peacock in wonder. Then he spotted a small gap on Nanima’s side. A gap!

His family worried as he became increasingly distant, his eyes glued to his phone’s screen. Soon his grade slipped from an A to a B. However, Antonio, 13, managed to pull away from social media addiction, and his family noticed the shift. He started playing tennis again and going for walks with his dad. He and his sister Angelina, 15, joined a group spending the last year creating videos and brochures on mental health and social media. Adolescents in the group have dealt with social media addiction as the platforms they frequented fed them uncensored (未经审核的) streams of content. Through the Los Angeles Public Library’s Teens Leading Change initiative, a group of teenagers created public service announcements and brochures that offer tips on how they and their peers can maintain healthful habits online. One afternoon, the teens gathered at the library for one final meet-up before they presented their efforts to family and friends. Emily Meehan, a young adult librarian, guided them through their planned talking points. “What’s one way to use social media in a healthy and mindful way?” Meehan asked. “While social media causes lots of issues and stuff, people have also been using it to counteract that bad stuff,” Shira Cohen, a group member, replied. “Yes, body positivity,” Meehan said, nodding. On a Saturday afternoon, the group presented their project to proud parents. They offered advice on navigating social media responsibly: don’t use the phone before going to bed, set a limit on social media use, practice gratitude... Jerry Chow, Antonio’s father, said that he was glad to see them take the lead in the conversation about social media and understanding its effects. Meehan said,“ the project has proved the teens are seeing how social media affects their lives and their peers’ lives, and they aren’t going to have that. They want to do something about it.” 4. What do we know about Antonio Chow? A. He was fond of classic movies and cars. B. His grades hardly changed after the phone addiction. C. He removed social media addiction with his peers’ help. D. His experience inspired him to join a group to help others. 5. What did the group focus on? A. Ways to use social media appropriately. B. Ways to help adolescents keep mental health. C. Ways to develop good study habits at school. D. Ways to make public service announcements. 6. What does the underlined “counteract” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Accuse. B. Tolerate. C. Prevent. D. Distinguish. 7. What can we learn from the passage? A. Shira Cohen disagreed with Emily Meehan. B. Emily Meehan offered guidance to the group. C. Jerry Chow was doubtful about what Antonio did. D. Angelina helped her brother break the addiction. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7.

In it, von Hardenberg, a historian of the environment and science, describes the pursuit of a standardized definition of sea level through the history of geology, oceanography, hydrography and coastal engineering. What emerges is a slim volume that raises big questions about the nature of global science in the modern age. The book is divided into two major sections. The first three chapters tell the history of debates surrounding the development of a standardized mean sea level. These take the reader from early German mathematical theories of sea level subsidence (下沉) through the debates about geological and oceanographic processes. In the next section, von Hardenberg shows how the development of standard ideas of sea level became a basis for scientific and public debates about the history and future of shifting coastlines. The final chapter brings the discussion into the present, with a chapter devoted to current debates about sea level. One of the most interesting clues in the book is related to technology. The making of an international mean required the standardization of measurement technologies. According to the author,“ the history of the assessment of sea level is part of a broader development toward the reform and unification of reference points and metrics.” This history includes tracing (追溯) instrumentation from barometry (气压测定法) to tide gauges (测量仪器) and satellites. Technology is not replaced, reveals von Hardenberg. New methods develop, built upon the infrastructure of older technologies still being used. For instance, the first self-registering (自动记录的) tidal gauge was equipped at the Sheerness, England, dockyard in 1831, and up to a third of all gauging stations throughout Europe still used simple scaled gauges in 1890. Sea Level is a powerful reminder that examining the history of scientific values can shed light on both the structure of modern science and its impact on the near future. This book is well written, and informative without using any unnecessary words and it is a strong example of what ocean history has to offer. 8. Why does the author mention the Oceans in Depth series in Paragraph 1? A. To define sea level. B. To introduce the topic. C. To give examples of ocean history. D. To compare the contents of the books. 9. What is presented in the first section of the book ? A. The future of shifting coastlines. B. The influence of sea level subsidence. C. The basis for scientific and public debates. D. The debates about geological and oceanographic processes. 10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The highlight of the book. B. The progress of technology. C The application of old technology. D. The background of writing the book. 11. What does the author of the passage like about Sea Level? A. Its humorous tone. B.

This gene, which varies across different plant species, allows for the redirection of living energy into organic light, offering a natural source of lighting for homes, gardens, and beyond. The study received support from Light Bio, a pioneer in the development of bioluminescent plants, which is dedicated to promoting greater connection and enjoyment of plants through the delightful appeal of living light. The latest research builds upon earlier findings. Prior approaches for creating bioluminescent plants involved including five genes obtained from fungi (菌类). In the new findings, a single gene native to plants can effectively replace two of the fungal genes. The plant gene’s smaller size and simpler biological requirements enhance its functionality for diverse applications. The smaller gene plays a vital role, acting as a bridge between plant metabolism (新陈代谢) and light production. This connection allows the plant’s inner dynamics to be translated into a constantly changing view of natural light. Bioluminescent plants have gained huge popularity among the public. Light Bio recently began taking orders for a bioluminescent petunia (矮牵牛花) under the brand Firefly TM Petunia, which is selling fast. The company selected the petunia as its first offering due to its popularity as a decorative plant. It recently announced that their plants glow up to 100 times brighter than previously possible, with the petunia standing out as the brightest. Known for their ease of being planted and flowering, petunias make an ideal choice for this innovative enhancement. In partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks, Light Bio envisions future plants to be at least ten times brighter, with an expanded range of varieties and colors. Beyond the sheer delight these glowing plants provide, the foundational science offers great insights into plant molecular physiology (分子生理学). The cooperative teams are confident that discoveries from this research will lead to significant progress in essential fields such as crop development and disease resistance. 12. What is the function of the gene native to plants? A. It makes an artificial source available. B. It redirects living energy into colorful light. C. It remains unchanged across different plant species. D. It helps keep the glow of bioluminescent under control. 13. What can be known from paragraph 2? A. A gene native to plants is equal to a fungal gene. B. Present approaches include five genes from fungi. C. Light Bio takes the lead in the study of tree plants. D. Early findings lay a foundation for the latest research. 14. What contributes to the petunia’s being selected as the first offering? A. Its inadequate brightness. B. Its easily being grown. C. Its function of decoration. D. Its creative way of flowering. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Native Genes Make Glowing Plants B. Glowing Plants Gain More Popularity C.

Colored rice poured out of Manju’s paper cone (纸锥) and showered across the floor. “I’m sorry. I cut it too much.” he told his grandmother, Nanima. He rushed to clean up the rice. Would Nanima still let him help with the rangoli (地画)? The rangoli represented good luck for a new year and Nanima made one every Diwali (排灯节). First, she would draw on the floor with chalk. Then, she would fill the drawing with uncooked colored rice without any gaps. This year, Manju was old enough to help. He stood on one side of rangoli, while Nanima the other side. But so far, he’d only made a mess. “ Don’t worry,” Nanima said gently, smiling at him.“ It takes some practice.” Manju tried again. He made a new cone and filled it with rice. This time, he cut it carefully. Rice flowed out immediately.“ It works!” Side by side, they made rice move out of the con e across the drawing. After a while, Manju glanced over at Nanima. He frowned (皱眉) with disappointment.“ You’ve finished a lot. I’ve done hardly any.”“ You’ re doing a good job,” Nanima said with a smile.“ Gaps bring bad luck. But your side looks nice and tight.” Manju kept working. Sometimes his rice moved very quickly and lightly outside the drawing. Sometimes he used the wrong color. Sometimes he touched the outline carelessly. It became so unclear that Nanima had to redraw it. But slowly, the bright patterns of rice was transformed into a beautiful peacock (孔雀). All of a sudden, the phone rang. “I’ll be right back in a moment,” Nanima said as she left to answer it. Manju admired the peacock in wonder. Then he spotted a small gap on Nanima’s side. A gap! Should he fix it? 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。 Paragraph 1:“I’ll surprise Nanima!” he decided. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: When Nanima came back, Manju looked anxious. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: “I’ll surprise Nanima!” he decided. He quickly grabbed some rice and tried to fill the gap. But as he was in a hurry, he accidentally spilled more rice outside the drawing. The peacock started to look messy. Manju panicked and tried to fix it, but it only got worse. He didn’t know what to do. Paragraph 2: When Nanima came back, Manju looked anxious. He told Nanima what had happened and apologized. Nanima smiled and said, “It’s okay, Manju. You tried to do a good thing, and that’s what matters. We can fix this together.” They spent some time cleaning up the mess and redrawing the outline. In the end, the rangoli looked even more beautiful than before. Manju learned that making mistakes is okay as long as you learn from them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Manju在帮助祖母Nanima制作排灯节地画时，不小心造成了一些小失误，并试图弥补这些失误的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我要给Nanima一个惊喜！”他决定了。”可知，第一段可描写Manju试图在Nanima回来之前秘密地填补上那道缝隙，但在这个过程中却意外地造成了更大的混乱。 ②由第二段首句内容“当Nanima回来时，Manju看起来很焦虑。”可知，第二段可描写Nanima回来后Manju坦白自己的过失并向Nanima道歉的情景，以及Nanima对此的反应和处理方式。 2.续写线索：决定填补空隙——尝试秘密行动——意外造成混乱——感到焦虑——坦白错误——得到谅解——共同解决问题——学习到教训 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓住：grab/clutch/seize ②填充：fill/stuff/pack ③清理：clean up/tidy up/clear away 情绪类 ①惊慌：panic/become frantic ②微笑：smile/grin 【点睛】【高分句型1】He told Nanima what had happened and apologized.(由what引导宾语从句作told的宾语) 【高分句型2】Manju learned that making mistakes is okay as long as you learn from them.(由that引导宾语从句作learned的宾语) 1-5 AACAB 6-10CBCCB 11-15 ABCAA 16-20CBCCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
