At 104 years old, Dorothy Hoffner fell. Then she kept falling, and falling. When the lifelong Chicagoan finally touched the ground last Sunday, she landed in the history books and became the oldest person to ever sky-dive (跳伞).
As Hoffner prepared to board, she pushed her red walker out and walked slowly to the plane, where two expert instructors helped her up the steps into the hold. “Let’s go!” she said, finally seated. The plane quickly rose, Hoffner looking calm and confident all the while.
When the aft (机尾) door opened to show the crop fields far below, she and the instructor were ready to stand up. When Hoffner first sky-dived at 100 years old, she was pushed out, she said. This time, she wanted to lead the jump.
Seven minutes after her jump, she moved slowly in the air for her historic landing. The wind pushed back her white hair. A look of excitement and wonder spread across her face. She picked up her legs as the ground approached. And finally, she managed to land on the ground.
The crowd gathered along the landing area. Friends rushed to share the moment. Someone brought over Hoffner’s red walker. She rose fast, and a reporter asked how it felt to be back on the ground. “The whole thing was wonderful, and couldn’t have been better,” she said.
The Guinness World Record for oldest skydiver was set in May 2022 by 103-year-oldLinnéa Ingegard Larsson from Sweden. When asked how it felt like to break the record, Hoffner replied quickly, “Like I’m old.” But the record didn’t seem to interest Hoffner before the jump. Instead, she focused on the peaceful falling through the sky. Hoffner strongly encouraged others to sky-dive like her. “It’s surprisingly affordable and so amazing,” she said.
24. What did Hoffner do last Sunday?
A. She reported a sports event. B. She managed to sky-dive.
C. She celebrated her birthday. D. She wrote a history book.
25. How did Hoffner feel after landing on the ground?
A. Surprised. B. Anxious. C. Excited. D. Hopeless.
26. Which probably attracted Hoffner most before her jump?
A. The falling in the air. B. Her family’s help.
C. The low cost of the jump. D. Her friends’ support.
27. What can we learn from Hoffner’s story?
A. To see is to believe. B. Time tells everything.
C. Hard work pays off. D. Age is just a number.
C
As children returned to school in Sweden last month, many of their teachers were putting a new importance on some traditional skills. These included reading printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice. Teachers were spending less time on digital products, online research and typing skills.
The return to traditional ways of learning might be the answer to questions raised by experts. They have questioned the country’s dependence on electronic technology in education. For example, schools in Sweden have introduced tablets (平板电脑) in preschools.
Lotta Edholm, Swedish Minister for Schools, was one of the biggest critics (反对者) of the level of technology in schools. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said. “Physical books are important for student learning.” Edholm said last month that the government wants to reverse the decision made by the National Agency for Education to make digital products required in preschools. The ministry plans to stop digital learning for children under the age of six.
Sweden’s students score above the European average (平均分) for reading ability. But an international test of fourth grade reading levels showed Sweden’s children had lost ground between 2016 and 2021. “An overuse of electronic products during school lessons may cause kids to fall behind,” education experts said.
Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a medical school centered on research, said in a statement last month, “It has been proved that digital tools harm rather than benefit student learning.” It added that schools should instead center on teaching using printed textbooks.
Not all experts think Sweden’s move away from digital technology is only about what is best for students. “It ignores the fact that technology improves learning,” said Neil Selwyn, a professor of education.
28. How does digital technology influence schools in Sweden?
A. They act as a role model. B. They tend to depend on it.
C. They center on written tests. D. They value students’ talents.
29. What does the underlined word “reverse” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Acquire. B. Change. C. Recover. D. Follow.
30. What does Neil Selwyn think of Sweden’s move?
A. It is an ill-considered step. B. It achieves great results.
C. It is easy to be carried out. D. It opens children’s mind.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. The Advantage of Traditional Skills
B. Recent Advances in Electronic Technology
C. Sweden Starts to Control Digital Products in Schools
D. Students in Europe Gave an Impressive Performance
D
Antarctica (南极洲) is a great, icy land, surrounded by the huge Southern Ocean. The ice in Antarctica doesn’t just cover the land. There’s also a large area of sea ice, which floats (漂浮) on the ocean’s surface.
Scientists have been measuring the area of the sea ice in Antarctica since 1979. For most of this time, Antarctica has seemed to be almost not influenced by the changing weather conditions experienced in other parts of the planet. In fact, until recent years, Antartica’s sea ice area mainly set records for growing.
That began to change around 2016. Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot.
The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France.
Scientists are still trying to understand what is driving the change in Antarctica. Ted Scambos, a research scientist at the University of Colorado, says, “Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”
The new low record has scientists worried. The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat.
32. What did NSIDC find about the sea ice in Antarctica this year?
A. It protected the wildlife in the ocean. B. It grew and covered a wider area.
C. It turned out to be difficult to observe. D. It reached a new record low level.
33. Why does the author mention France in paragraph 4?
A. To present the total area of the country.
B. To introduce a new topic for discussion.
C. To show the sharp loss of Antarctica’s sea ice.
D. To explain the position of the wonderful land.
34. What causes the change in Antarctica according to Ted Scambos?
A. Low rainfall. B. Rising temperatures.
C. Cold weather. D. Short summer months.
35. What can we know about Antarctica’s sea ice?
A. It’s key to the earth’s cooling system. B. It’s just a short-term problem.
C. It reminds us to find water resources. D. It offers humans a bright future.

原文】M: It is 7:30 and here is radio JPD’s weather and traffic information. Traveling will be difficult today because of the heavy snow last night. Traffic is moving slowly on the M16 and M30 freeways and the police say the M43 will stay closed for more than an hour, until a quarter to nine. In the city, an accident at North Street means that it is closed to all cars, and drivers must use New Street or Lake Street. Because of this, some journeys by bus are taking longer. The No.16 bus to the city center is really late. There are also problems for railway passengers because of the thick snow on the tracks. All trains to Oxford are late and there will be no trains to London until lunchtime. Passengers should phone 0722-3691 for the latest information about trains. This afternoon it is going to be very windy, with snow this evening. So wear some warm clothes if you have to go out!

At 104 years old, Dorothy Hoffner fell. Then she kept falling, and falling. When the lifelong Chicagoan finally touched the ground last Sunday, she landed in the history books and became the oldest person to ever sky-dive (跳伞).
As Hoffner prepared to board, she pushed her red walker out and walked slowly to the plane, where two expert instructors helped her up the steps into the hold. “Let’s go!” she said, finally seated. The plane quickly rose, Hoffner looking calm and confident all the while.
When the aft (机尾) door opened to show the crop fields far below, she and the instructor were ready to stand up. When Hoffner first sky-dived at 100 years old, she was pushed out, she said. This time, she wanted to lead the jump.
Seven minutes after her jump, she moved slowly in the air for her historic landing. The wind pushed back her white hair. A look of excitement and wonder spread across her face. She picked up her legs as the ground approached. And finally, she managed to land on the ground.
The crowd gathered along the landing area. Friends rushed to share the moment. Someone brought over Hoffner’s red walker. She rose fast, and a reporter asked how it felt to be back on the ground. “The whole thing was wonderful, and couldn’t have been better,” she said.
The Guinness World Record for oldest skydiver was set in May 2022 by 103-year-oldLinnéa Ingegard Larsson from Sweden. When asked how it felt like to break the record, Hoffner replied quickly, “Like I’m old.” But the record didn’t seem to interest Hoffner before the jump. Instead, she focused on the peaceful falling through the sky. Hoffner strongly encouraged others to sky-dive like her. “It’s surprisingly affordable and so amazing,” she said.
24. What did Hoffner do last Sunday?
A. She reported a sports event. B. She managed to sky-dive.
C. She celebrated her birthday. D. She wrote a history book.
25. How did Hoffner feel after landing on the ground?
A. Surprised. B. Anxious. C. Excited. D. Hopeless.
26. Which probably attracted Hoffner most before her jump?
A. The falling in the air. B. Her family’s help.
C. The low cost of the jump. D. Her friends’ support.
27. What can we learn from Hoffner’s story?
A. To see is to believe. B. Time tells everything.
C. Hard work pays off. D. Age is just a number.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. D

As children returned to school in Sweden last month, many of their teachers were putting a new importance on some traditional skills. These included reading printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice. Teachers were spending less time on digital products, online research and typing skills.
The return to traditional ways of learning might be the answer to questions raised by experts. They have questioned the country’s dependence on electronic technology in education. For example, schools in Sweden have introduced tablets (平板电脑) in preschools.
Lotta Edholm, Swedish Minister for Schools, was one of the biggest critics (反对者) of the level of technology in schools. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said. “Physical books are important for student learning.” Edholm said last month that the government wants to reverse the decision made by the National Agency for Education to make digital products required in preschools. The ministry plans to stop digital learning for children under the age of six.
Sweden’s students score above the European average (平均分) for reading ability. But an international test of fourth grade reading levels showed Sweden’s children had lost ground between 2016 and 2021. “An overuse of electronic products during school lessons may cause kids to fall behind,” education experts said.
Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a medical school centered on research, said in a statement last month, “It has been proved that digital tools harm rather than benefit student learning.” It added that schools should instead center on teaching using printed textbooks.
Not all experts think Sweden’s move away from digital technology is only about what is best for students. “It ignores the fact that technology improves learning,” said Neil Selwyn, a professor of education.
28. How does digital technology influence schools in Sweden?
A. They act as a role model. B. They tend to depend on it.
C. They center on written tests. D. They value students’ talents.
29. What does the underlined word “reverse” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Acquire. B. Change. C. Recover. D. Follow.
30. What does Neil Selwyn think of Sweden’s move?
A. It is an ill-considered step. B. It achieves great results.
C. It is easy to be carried out. D. It opens children’s mind.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. The Advantage of Traditional Skills
B. Recent Advances in Electronic Technology
C. Sweden Starts to Control Digital Products in Schools
D. Students in Europe Gave an Impressive Performance
【答案】28. B 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要叙述了瑞典小学提倡重拾书本和纸笔,提高学习能力,减少对电子科技的依赖。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They have questioned the country’s dependence on electronic technology in education. (他们质疑该国在教育上对电子技术的依赖)”可知,瑞典学校依赖于电子科技是其影响。故选B。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“The ministry plans to stop digital learning for children under the age of six. (教育部计划停止6岁以下儿童的数字化学习)”可知瑞典教育部计划停止幼儿园儿童进行数字化学习,结合划线词所在句子decision的具体内容“to make digital products required in preschools (将数字设备设为幼儿园必需用品)”可知,此处划线词“reverse”表示“推翻,改变”的意思,即反对将数字设备设为幼儿园必需品。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Not all experts think Sweden’s move away from digital technology is only about what is best for students. (并不是所有的专家都认为瑞典远离数字技术只是为了对学生最好)”和Neil Selwyn所说的““It ignores the fact that technology improves learning,” said Neil Selwyn, a professor of education. (教育学教授Neil Selwyn说,“它忽略了技术改善学习的事实。”)”可知Neil Selwyn并不认同瑞典远离电子技术的举动,因为技术确实改善了学习,所以她对这一行动持负面态度,A选项“It is an ill-considered step. (这是一个考虑不周的手段)”符合题意。故选A。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“As children returned to school in Sweden last month, many of their teachers were putting a new importance on some traditional skills. These included reading printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice. Teachers were spending less time on digital products, online research and typing skills.(上个月,当瑞典的孩子们重返校园时,他们的许多老师重新重视了一些传统技能。这些包括阅读印刷书籍,安静的阅读时间和手写练习。教师花在数字产品、在线研究和打字技能上的时间减少了)”可知文章首段介绍了瑞典学校开始回归传统的学习技能去减少对电子科技的依赖。后续段落进一步解释了该举动的原因以及专家对此的态度。所以C选项“Sweden Starts to Control Digital Products in Schools (瑞典开始控制学校的数字产品)”符合本篇文章标题。故选C。
D
Antarctica (南极洲) is a great, icy land, surrounded by the huge Southern Ocean. The ice in Antarctica doesn’t just cover the land. There’s also a large area of sea ice, which floats (漂浮) on the ocean’s surface.
Scientists have been measuring the area of the sea ice in Antarctica since 1979. For most of this time, Antarctica has seemed to be almost not influenced by the changing weather conditions experienced in other parts of the planet. In fact, until recent years, Antartica’s sea ice area mainly set records for growing.
That began to change around 2016. Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot.
The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France.
Scientists are still trying to understand what is driving the change in Antarctica. Ted Scambos, a research scientist at the University of Colorado, says, “Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”
The new low record has scientists worried. The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat.
32. What did NSIDC find about the sea ice in Antarctica this year?
A. It protected the wildlife in the ocean. B. It grew and covered a wider area.
C. It turned out to be difficult to observe. D. It reached a new record low level.
33. Why does the author mention France in paragraph 4?
A. To present the total area of the country.
B. To introduce a new topic for discussion.
C. To show the sharp loss of Antarctica’s sea ice.
D. To explain the position of the wonderful land.
34. What causes the change in Antarctica according to Ted Scambos?
A. Low rainfall. B. Rising temperatures.
C. Cold weather. D. Short summer months.
35. What can we know about Antarctica’s sea ice?
A. It’s key to the earth’s cooling system. B. It’s just a short-term problem.
C. It reminds us to find water resources. D. It offers humans a bright future.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了,今年南极洲的海冰面积创下历史新低,引发科学家担忧。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“Now, for several years, the area of Antartica’s sea ice has been getting smaller. This year, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reported that Antartica’s sea ice reached its maximum on September 10 — almost two weeks earlier than normal. And the sea ice was at a new record low — not just by a little bit, but by a lot. (现在,几年来,南极洲的海冰面积一直在变小。今年,美国国家冰雪数据中心(NSIDC)报告称,南极洲的海冰在9月10日达到最大值,比正常情况早了近两周。海冰也创下了历史新低——不仅少一点点,而且少很多)”可知,NSIDC今年对南极洲海冰的检测,发现南极洲的海冰面积达到了历史新低。故选D项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段“The last time Antartica’s low sea ice set a record at the end of winter was in 1986. And this year, there’s about 1.03 million square kilometers less sea ice than in 1986. It’s hard to picture such a large area, but it’s around 1.6 times the size of France. (上一次南极洲在1986年冬季结束时创下海冰面积少纪录。今年的海冰面积比1986年减少了约103万平方公里。很难想象这么大的面积,但它的面积大约是法国的1.6倍)”可知,30多年的时间,南极洲海冰消失的面积相当于法国国土面积,这是很大的面积,提到法国是为了显示南极洲海冰的急剧减少。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。由倒数第二段中Ted Scambos说的话“Antarctica’s ice levels have always changed some, but the situation this year is pointing towards warmer ocean conditions around the area.”(南极洲的冰平面总是有一些变化,但今年的情况表明,该地区周围的海洋条件更加温暖)”可知,Ted Scambos认为气温上升导致了南极洲的变化。故选B项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段中“The sea ice is important, because it helps cool the planet. When it’s frozen, sea ice reflects sunlight back out into space. But when the sea ice melts (融化), the water left behind is darker, and takes in and keeps more heat. (海冰很重要,因为它有助于冷却地球。当海冰结冰时,它会将阳光反射回太空。但当海冰融化时,留下的水会变黑,吸收并保持更多的热量)”可知,海冰对地球有冷却作用,说明南极洲的海冰是地球冷却系统的关键。故选A项。

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。
Every Sunday, June, a six-year-old girl, tied her sports shoes and walked to Grandpa’s house. Grandpa lived around the block(街区), and June was allowed to walk there by herself. Grandpa often told her stories. They also ate ice cream together while they talked. Sunday was June’s favorite day.
This Sunday, June got dressed. She put on one sports shoe, but she could not find the other shoe. “Mommy, where’s my shoe?”
“I’m sure it’s in your room. Look carefully until you find it. You can’t go until you have both shoes on,” June’s mother said.
June sat on her bed and looked around. Her room was quite messy. There were clothes on the floor and papers on the desk. She wasn’t sure where to start.
Then June remembered a story Grandpa told her. When he was little, he lost a coin that he planned to use to buy his mother a candy. He walked back over every place he had been to that day until he found it. He had to go in order so he wouldn’t miss anything.
June stood up. “I’ll start in the corner and go around the room in order,” she thought. “That way I won’t miss anything.”
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。
June began in the corner where her desk was.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
June quickly put on her shoe and ran out of the door to Grandpa’s house.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
June began in the corner where her desk was. Her shoe was not in the pile of papers on the desk, so she looked under her desk. Instead of finding her shoe, she found her lost class photo. Next, June walked along the wall. No shoe. She turned along the next wall. There were lots of clothes, but no shoe. Along the third wall was June's bed. She looked under her bed. There she found something behind a dust-covered book. She pulled the book toward her, and reached as far as she could to catch it. “My shoe!” she shouted excitedly.
June quickly put on her shoe and ran out of the door to Grandpa’s house. “This time I have a story to tell,” June thought happily. When she arrived at her grandpa’s house, Grandpa handed her an ice cream and was about to tell a story. “Stop,” June mysteriously said. Then, she whispered to her grandpa’s ear, and said she would tell Grandpa a story today. Grandpa enjoyed the moment of June’s story which happened this morning and the sweetness of ice cream. After June's story, Grandpa smiled and said, “You will do a greater job, if you can keep your room in order.” June promised to do so later.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了主人公June在一个星期天找不到另一只运动鞋了。然后June想起爷爷给她讲的他小时候找到丢失的硬币的故事。于是,她从角落开始,按顺序在房间里转一圈,终于找到另一只运动鞋的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“June从她桌子所在的角落开始。”可知,第一段可描写June按顺序找遍整个房间终于找到鞋子。
②由第二段首句内容“June很快穿上鞋子,跑出门去爷爷家。”可知,第二段可描写June跟爷爷分享自己找鞋的故事,爷爷告诉她要把房间整理好。
2.续写线索:角落找——无果——其它地方——找到——告诉爷爷——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①递:hand/pass
