(晚春或初秋是游览Zion National Park的最佳时间，因为大多数设施都在这段时间开放)”可知游览该公园的最佳时期是晚春或初秋。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Canyonlands National Park”部分中“Although it’s the 23rd largest National Park in the US, Canyonlands is the largest out of the four national parks in Utah. (虽然Canyonlands是美国第23大国家公园，但它是犹他州四个国家公园中最大的一个)”可知Canyonlands National Park是犹他州最大的国家公园。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Arches National Park”部分中“Known as a red-rock wonderland, Arches National Park is popular for its stone arches (石拱).The park has over 2,000 stone arches, with Landscape Arch the largest. (Arches National Park因其石拱而闻名于世，被称为红岩仙境) ”可知，游客可以在Arches National Park欣赏红岩。故选D。 B By the time Joy Ryan, a US grandma, turned 85, she had never seen the ocean or mountains. For Joy, trips to the local fishing area with her husband were about the farthest place she had ever gone, even if she loved watching the Travel Channel. But one day Joy’s grandson, Brad Ryan, discovered that he and his grandma had a common interest in their love for traveling, when they began to visit the American great outdoors together. Brad said, “When I learned my grandma had never seen the great wildernesses of America—deserts, mountains and oceans, I thought there was something I needed to do.” It was after taking his grandma out of Ohio on a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park that he came up with the idea of visiting all the 63 US national parks with her to create inspiring memories. Going to all the 63 US National Parks is a huge achievement even for a much younger adventurer (冒险家). Brad said his grandmother’s physical strength (体力) grew with their trips. For example, his grandma went water rafting (漂流) at 91, with class three rapids and when walking at the New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia, she broke the record by almost a decade! It wasn’t always like this, however. Joy was so wobbly (不稳的) on her first trip, challenged by her balance. A group of college students clapped their hands when she reached the top of a path they were following. Joy broke her age limitation (限制) and at the age of 93, she made history as the oldest living person to visit every US National Park. Joy believes it’s the mix of hopefulness, willpower, and the good health that gives her strength. 4. With whom did Joy Ryan visit all the 63 US national parks? A. Her grandson. B. Her husband. C. Her daughter. D. Her student. 5. What does Brad want to show by mentioning Joy Ryan’s water rafting at 91? A. She had a love for traveling. B. Water rafting is dangerous for the old. C. There is no age limitation for water rafting. D. She had developed a strong body from traveling. 6. What is Joy Ryan’s challenge on her first trip? A. Her memory. B. Her balance. C. Her physical strength. D. Her sense of direction. 7. Which of the following can best describe Joy Ryan? A. Brave and hopeful. B. Humorous and outgoing. C. Hard-working and helpful. D. Thoughtful and self-confident. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了美国老奶奶Joy Ryan，在孙子的陪伴下游览美国全部63个国家公园的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It was after taking his grandma out of Ohio on a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park that he came up with the idea of visiting all the 63 US national parks with her to create inspiring memories. (在带着奶奶离开俄亥俄州参观大烟山国家公园后，他萌生了和奶奶一起游览美国全部63个国家公园的想法，以创造激动人心的回忆。)”可知，Joy Ryan和她的孙子一起参观了美国所有63个国家公园。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Brad said his grandmother’s physical strength (体力) grew with their trips. For example, his grandma went water rafting (漂流) at 91, with class three rapids and when walking at the New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia, she broke the record by almost a decade! (Brad说他奶奶的体力随着他们的旅行而增长。例如，他的祖母在91岁时去泛舟，在三级急流中行走，当她在西弗吉尼亚州的新河峡国家公园行走时，她打破了将近十年的记录！)”可知，Brad是通过例子证明旅行使奶奶Joy Ryan锻炼出了强壮的身体。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Joy was so wobbly (不稳的) on her first trip, challenged by her balance. (Joy第一次旅行时身体摇摇晃晃，平衡受到了挑战。)”可知，Joy Ryan 第一次旅行的挑战是平衡性。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据最后一段“Joy broke her age limitation(限制) and at the age of 93, she made history as the oldest living person to visit every US National Park. Joy believes it’s the mix of hopefulness, willpower, and the good health that gives her strength. (Joy打破了她的年龄限制，在93岁高龄，她创造了历史作为最长寿的人参观每一个美国国家公园。Joy相信是希望、意志力和健康的结合给了她力量。)”可知，Joy Ryan是勇敢且满怀希望的。故选A项。 C It happens in every disaster (灾难): For those in need, people often donate (捐赠) things that turn out to be more of a trouble. Juanita Rilling remembers it happened in 1988 when she was a disaster expert trying to help people suffering from a hurricane (飓风) in Honduras. “One morning I received a call from one of our logistic operators (物流运营商), and he explained to me that there was a plane carrying medical supplies that needed to land,” says Rilling. “But the ground was full, with lots of donations that no one had required. The plane—full of needed supplies—had to find someplace else to go. And it ended up stopping everyone’s plans by about 48 hours, which is important time in a disaster.” Rilling now runs the Center for International Disaster Information, which is trying to make sure things like that don’t happen again. So when Superstorm Sandy hit, Rilling’s group started a project to encourage money donation. “Even a small donation can make a big difference and can quickly become exactly what people affected by a disaster need most,” Rilling says. But despite this, donators do that over and over. About 60% of the things donated after a disaster couldn’t be used. Often it’s old clothing or food. Meghan Hara, who deals with kind donations for the American Red Cross, says she knows that some people are careful with giving money. And she doesn’t think that the need to give something concrete (实物) should be completely stopped. “Part of what people are doing is that they’re helping, and they’re trying to help. What we need to work out is how to effectively deal with that,” Hara says. 8. What caused needed supplies to be put off after the hurricane in 1988? A. Workers on the plane. B. A weather report. C. Useless donations on the ground. D. The call from the operator. 9. What did Rilling’s group suggest donating when Superstorm Sandy hit? A. Clothing. B. Money. C. Medicine. D. Food. 10. What is Meghan Hara’s attitude towards donating concrete things? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Worried. 11. What might the author continue talking about? A. Studies on natural disasters. B. The benefits of helping others. C. Tips on choosing useful donations. D. The ways of managing people’s donations. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章谈论了在救灾时，如何进行有效的捐赠。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But the ground was full, with lots of donations that no one had required. The plane—full of needed supplies—had to find someplace else to go. And it ended up stopping everyone’s plans by about 48 hours, which is important time in a disaster. (但是场地是满的，有很多没有人需要的捐款。这架满载所需物资的飞机不得不找其他地方去。结果导致每个人的计划延迟了大约48小时，这在灾难中是非常重要的时间。)”可知，场地上的没用的捐赠物造成装载有应急物资的飞机无法降落，导致所需供应被推迟。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“So when Superstorm Sandy hit, Rilling’s group started a project to encourage money donation. (因此，当飓风Sandy来袭时，Rilling的团队启动了一个鼓励捐款的项目。)”可知，当飓风来袭时，Rilling的团队建议人们捐赠钱。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“And she doesn’t think that the need to give something concrete(实物) should be completely stopped. (她认为需要给予具体的东西不应该完全停止。)”可知，Meghan Hara对人们捐赠实物是支持的。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“What we need to work out is how to effectively deal with that. (我们需要解决的是如何有效地处理这个问题。)”可知，作者可能继续讨论管理人们捐赠的方式。故选D项。 D Ritz has been teaching for nearly 10 years in a high school where the early graduation rate of the students was just 17%. He discovered a way to connect and intrigue these students, especially the ones who seemed the hardest to reach. Once, he received a package of flower bulbs (球茎) which he mistakenly thought were onions. He was afraid that they might become weapons (武器) in a classroom fight, so he hid them behind a radiator (暖气片) and forgot about them. Six weeks later, an angry girl ran after a boy who always made troubles. As usual, Ritz rushed towards them to break up what he thought was about to become a disaster. He saw the boy reach towards the radiator and thought he might have hidden a weapon there. To his surprise, the boy suddenly pulled out a bunch of yellow flowers and gave them to the girl as a peace offering. The girl decided to take the flowers home to her mother and peace came back. The forgotten bulbs were actually daffodils (黄水仙). The steam from the radiator had forced them into flowers. From such an experience, Ritz realized that if there was power in plants to stop a classroom fight, there must be power in plants to change students’ lives. He turned the moment of growing plants into a green course, a movement that would change his life and the lives of his students. He designed vegetable gardens into part of the school ground and on top of a building. Ritz’s students now have near-perfect attendance and graduation rates. His efforts have led him to be a great teacher who uses the power of a plant to give a voice to children. 12. What does the underlined word “intrigue” mean in paragraph 1? A. Interest. B. Protect. C. Punish. D. Challenge. 13. What stopped the fight between the boy and the girl? A. The radiator. B. A tasty dish. C. Some yellow flowers. D. The teacher’s words. 14. How are Ritz’s students affected by his green course? A. They have low attendance. B. They become the hardest to reach. C. They know how to make weapons. D. They fall in love with learning. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. What a Classroom Needs for a Fight B. Why a Plant Has an Effect on Students C. How a Teacher Changes His Students D. How a Teacher Becomes Popular 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了被Ritz遗忘的黄水仙花平息了学生间的冲突，由此Ritz想到了开设绿色种植课程，这门课提高了学生的学习兴趣，增加了其出勤率和毕业率。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线词前“He discovered a way to connect...(他发现了一种关联和……这些学生)”可知，Ritz发现了一种方法可以把这些学生关联起来，结合画线词后的 “...especially the ones who seemed the hardest to reach.(……尤其是那些看起来最难接触的学生。)”可知，他找到的方法应该是可以把这些学生关联起来，尤其是那些不易接触的学生，分析句子结构可知，划线单词与“关联”为并列关系，结合尾段中的“Ritz’s students now have near-perfect attendance and graduation rates. (Ritz的学生现在有近乎完美的出勤率和毕业率。)”可知，Ritz的学生出勤率和毕业率近乎完美，由此可推断，Ritz应该是找到了方法能够让学生喜欢上了学习，所以画线单词与“interest(使感兴趣)”的意思最为接近。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To his surprise, the boy suddenly pulled out a bunch of yellow flowers and gave them to the girl as a peace offering. The girl decided to take the flowers home to her mother and peace came back. (令他惊讶的是，男孩突然抽出一束黄色的花，送给女孩作为和平的礼物。女孩决定把花带回家给妈妈，平静又回来了。)”可知，男孩抽出一束花送给女孩作为和平的礼物，战争结束，由此可知，男孩和女孩之间的打闹是被Ritz遗忘的黄水仙花平息的。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ritz’s students now have near-perfect attendance and graduation rates. His efforts have led him to be a great teacher who uses the power of a plant to give a voice to children. (Ritz的学生现在有近乎完美的出勤率和毕业率。他的努力使他成为一名伟大的老师，他利用植物的力量为孩子们发声。)”可知，Ritz开设的绿色种植课程使得他的学生出勤率和毕业率近乎完美，由此可知，他的绿色种植课程提高了学生的学习兴趣。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段中的“He discovered a way to connect and intrigue these students, especially the ones who seemed the hardest to reach. (他发现了一种关联和吸引这些学生的方法，尤其是那些看起来最难接触的学生。)”可知，Ritz找到了一种可以关联和吸引学生的方法，结合下文中介绍的Ritz是如何发现的这种方法以及这种方法是什么，以及尾段“Ritz’s students now have near-perfect attendance and graduation rates. (Ritz的学生现在有近乎完美的出勤率和毕业率。)”可知，Ritz所发现的方法改变了学生，综合以上信息，本文主要讲述了被Ritz遗忘的黄水仙花平息了学生间的冲突，由此Ritz想到了开设绿色种植课程，这门课提高了学生的学习兴趣，增加了其出勤率和毕业率，所以题目“老师如何改变他的学生”与本文的内容一致，且可以概括全文的主题，可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选C项。 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12,5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法)is a powerful method that you can use to learn anything faster because it forces you to actively think about the problem instead of passively reading or listening to someone else talk about it. You can take the following five simple steps to study better. ·Find out the topic you want to learn. ___16___ Otherwise, you'll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them. ·Explain the topic as if teaching a sixth-grader. This step is the heart of the Feynman Technique—___17___.This requires you to meet the child at their level of understanding by using the simplest way. .Identify areas of improvement in your explanation. You’ll need to critically(批判性地)review the explanation you came up with in Step Two ___18___. Try to find any knowledge gaps, together with any areas where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply. ·Improve and optimize(优化) your explanation. Think about all the knowledge gaps and other areas of improvement you found before. ___19___ · Repeat the steps until you’ve achieved mastery of the topic. Keep going through each step until you're fully satisfied with your explanation.___20___, and that is why going through all the prior steps just once is usually not enough to achieve topic mastery. A. Use those to improve your explanation B. To do so, take a critical look at your explanation C. Make sure that your explanation is interest-based D. Your explanations need to be short and to the point E. The Feynman Technique works best with a repeat F. It’s important that you clearly know the topics you’re trying to learn G. Explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. B 19. A 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是五步更好学习的费曼学习法。 【16题详解】 根据空前“Find out the topic you want to learn.（找出你想学的主题。）”可知，本段建议找出想学的主题；以及空后“Otherwise, you’ll end up jumping between topics withoutdeveloping a deeper understanding of any of them.（否则，你最终会在各个主题之间跳来跳去，而对其中任何一个都没有深入的了解。）”可知，前面强调找出主题的重要性。F项“It’s important that you clearly know the topics you’re trying to learn（对自己要学习的主题做到心里有数是很重要的）”符合语境。故选F。 【17题详解】 根据空前“Explain the topic as if teaching a sixth-grader. This step is the heart of the FeynmanTechnique（像教六年级学生一样解释这个话题。这一步是费曼技巧的核心）”其中sixth-grader和选项中照应词sixth-grade student；以及空后“This requires you to meet the child at their levelof understanding by using the simplest way.（这就要求你用最简单的方式满足孩子的理解水平。）”可知，满足孩子理解水平需要简洁解释，故G项“Explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student.（简洁明了地解释这个主题，足以让一个六年级的学生理解）”符合语境。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据空前 “You’ll need to critically(批判性地)review the explanation you came up with in Step Two.（您需要批判性地回顾您在第二步中提出的解释。）”可知，下面介绍了如何批判性回顾这个解释，B项“To do so, take a critical look at your explanation.（要做到这一点，你需要批判性地看看你的解释）”符合语境。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据空前“Improve and optimize(优化) your explanation. Think about all the knowledge gaps and otherareas of improvement you found before.（改进和优化你的解释。想想你之前发现的所有知识差距和其他需要改进的地方。）”可知，其中出现和选项中照应词improve your explanation，并给出了如何改进优化的方法，故A项“Use those to improve your explanation（用这些来改进你的解释）”符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据空前“Repeat the steps until you've achieved mastery of the topic.

She was the most hardworking girl at her school. Her marks were higher than the others. She was the best, but nobody wanted to be her friend. Her classmates didn’t want to play with her and some even laughed at her. Cary’s teacher Jared didn’t know that. One day, Jared set an exam and Robert, a boy who was the king of all the students, signed his exam paper using Cary’s name, and changed Cary’s name for Robert’s quickly after Cary handed in her paper. It wasn’t noticed by anybody. When Jared returned all the exam Papers, everybody was shocked. Cary failed the exam, but the others seemed to be happy with that. The next day, when Cary arrived at school, all the children wanted to be with her and invited her to play with them. Although Cary was surprised, she was happy to play with the other children. During their fun time, Jared suddenly appeared to inform Cary that there had been a mistake, and she hadn’t failed. Jared explained to the students what had happened and punished Robert. After that, they all stopped playing with Cary again. Cary couldn’t stop crying this time and ran to ask her teacher why she couldn’t make friends with good school performance. 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。 Jared was sorry to know what had happened to Cary. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After hearing Jared’s story, all the children decided to change themselves. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Jared was sorry to know what had happened to Cary. He asked Cary to sit down in the office, handing her some tissues, and then asked Cary to tell all the unpleasant things that had happened at school. After Cary poured out her unhappiness, Jared comforted, “You should never keep silent when unhappy things happen at school, and since your academic performance is excellent, why not choose to help the students who are not good at study? I believe you can make good friends with them gradually. ” After that, Jared led Cary into the classroom and told his students a story about his own childhood that was similar to Cary’s. After hearing Jared’s story, all the children decided to change themselves. They apologized to Cary and followed Cary’s example. After class, Cary offered to help her classmates with their study. All the children began to work hard and their marks got improved. They loved being with Cary, studying, playing and laughing together. They were proud to have a friend who got such good marks and made such a big effort at school. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Cary是学校里最勤奋的女孩，她的成绩是最好的，但没人愿意和她做朋友。一天，Jared老师准备了一场考试，一个叫做Robert的学生，用Cary的名字在自己试卷上签了名，并且在Cary交卷后把她的名字改成了自己的名字。当试卷发下来后，Cary考试不及格，但其他人似乎对此很高兴，所有的孩子都想和她在一起玩。虽然Cary很惊讶，但她很高兴和其他孩子一起玩。在玩乐的时候，Jared老师突然出现告诉Cary所发生的事情。从那以后，同学不和Cary玩了。Cary很伤心，哭着跑去问她的老师为什么她不能用好的学习成绩交朋友。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Jared对Cary的遭遇感到很遗憾。”和第二段首句“听了Jared的故事后，所有的孩子都决定改变自己。”可知，第一段可描写老师安慰Cary，并告诉她用自己的好成绩去帮助他人，之后带着Cary走进教室给同学们讲了一个自己的童年故事。 ②由第二段首句内容“听了Jared的故事后，所有的孩子都决定改变自己。”可知，第二段可描写同学们意识到自己错了，向Cary道歉，Cary也利用课余时间帮助其他同学，随后他们一起学习一起玩耍。 2.续写线索：遗憾——安慰——走进教室——讲述自己的故事——道歉——互相学习，互相玩耍 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①递给：hand/give ②发生：happen/take place ③帮助某人：help sb./do sb. a favor 情绪类 ①令人不快的：unpleasant /unhappy/disagreeable 【点睛】[高分句型1] He asked Cary to sit down in the office, handing her some tissues, and then asked Cary to tell all the unpleasant things that had happened at school. （由that引导的定语从句） [高分句型2]You should never keep silent when unhappy things happen at school, and since your academic performance is excellent, why not choose to help the students who are not good at study?（由when引导的状语从句和who引导的限制性定语从句） [高分句型3]After that, Jared led Cary into the classroom and told his students a story about his own childhood that was similar to Cary’s.（由that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 榆林市第十四中学2024年高一秋季学期期中 英语试题 考生注意: 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分, 考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前, 考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时, 请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑; 非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答, 超出答题区域书写的答案无效, 在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围: 人教版必修第一册至Unit 3。 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.

One of the park highlights is the Zion Canyons, which offers different hiking (远足) opportunities. Late spring or early fall is the best time to visit Zion National Park, since most facilities are open during this time. However, if you don’t mind cold weather, visit during the late fall and winter. Bryce Canyon National Park It’s home to the greatest number of hoodoos (石林) on earth, which are one of the natural wonders of the world. You can see most of Bryce Canyon’s highlights in one day by taking the scenic drive and making stops at various views. Most people visit the park between May and September since the weather is warmer. Canyonlands National Park Although it’s the 23rd largest National Park in the US, Canyonlands is the largest out of the four national parks in Utah. The best time of the year to visit is when the weather is pleasant in the spring and fall. The park has four main parts: The Maze, Island in the Sky, The Needles, and Horseshoe Canyon. If you plan to visit every part, you can go on a boat tour to explore it. Arches National Park Known as a red-rock wonderland, Arches National Park is popular for its stone arches (石拱).The park has over 2,000 stone arches, with Landscape Arch the largest.

For Joy, trips to the local fishing area with her husband were about the farthest place she had ever gone, even if she loved watching the Travel Channel. But one day Joy’s grandson, Brad Ryan, discovered that he and his grandma had a common interest in their love for traveling, when they began to visit the American great outdoors together. Brad said, “When I learned my grandma had never seen the great wildernesses of America—deserts, mountains and oceans, I thought there was something I needed to do.” It was after taking his grandma out of Ohio on a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park that he came up with the idea of visiting all the 63 US national parks with her to create inspiring memories. Going to all the 63 US National Parks is a huge achievement even for a much younger adventurer (冒险家). Brad said his grandmother’s physical strength (体力) grew with their trips. For example, his grandma went water rafting (漂流) at 91, with class three rapids and when walking at the New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia, she broke the record by almost a decade! It wasn’t always like this, however. Joy was so wobbly (不稳的) on her first trip, challenged by her balance. A group of college students clapped their hands when she reached the top of a path they were following. Joy broke her age limitation (限制) and at the age of 93, she made history as the oldest living person to visit every US National Park. Joy believes it’s the mix of hopefulness, willpower, and the good health that gives her strength. 4. With whom did Joy Ryan visit all the 63 US national parks? A. Her grandson. B. Her husband. C. Her daughter. D. Her student. 5. What does Brad want to show by mentioning Joy Ryan’s water rafting at 91? A. She had a love for traveling. B. Water rafting is dangerous for the old. C. There is no age limitation for water rafting. D. She had developed a strong body from traveling. 6. What is Joy Ryan’s challenge on her first trip? A. Her memory. B. Her balance. C. Her physical strength. D. Her sense of direction. 7. Which of the following can best describe Joy Ryan? A. Brave and hopeful. B. Humorous and outgoing. C. Hard-working and helpful. D. Thoughtful and self-confident. C It happens in every disaster (灾难): For those in need, people often donate (捐赠) things that turn out to be more of a trouble. Juanita Rilling remembers it happened in 1988 when she was a disaster expert trying to help people suffering from a hurricane (飓风) in Honduras. “One morning I received a call from one of our logistic operators (物流运营商), and he explained to me that there was a plane carrying medical supplies that needed to land,” says Rilling. “But the ground was full, with lots of donations that no one had required. The plane—full of needed supplies—had to find someplace else to go. And it ended up stopping everyone’s plans by about 48 hours, which is important time in a disaster.” Rilling now runs the Center for International Disaster Information, which is trying to make sure things like that don’t happen again. So when Superstorm Sandy hit, Rilling’s group started a project to encourage money donation. “Even a small donation can make a big difference and can quickly become exactly what people affected by a disaster need most,” Rilling says. But despite this, donators do that over and over. About 60% of the things donated after a disaster couldn’t be used. Often it’s old clothing or food. Meghan Hara, who deals with kind donations for the American Red Cross, says she knows that some people are careful with giving money. And she doesn’t think that the need to give something concrete (实物) should be completely stopped. “Part of what people are doing is that they’re helping, and they’re trying to help. What we need to work out is how to effectively deal with that,” Hara says. 8. What caused needed supplies to be put off after the hurricane in 1988? A. Workers on the plane. B. A weather report. C. Useless donations on the ground. D. The call from the operator. 9. What did Rilling’s group suggest donating when Superstorm Sandy hit? A. Clothing. B. Money. C. Medicine. D. Food. 10. What is Meghan Hara’s attitude towards donating concrete things? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Worried. 11. What might the author continue talking about? A. Studies on natural disasters. B. The benefits of helping others. C. Tips on choosing useful donations. D. The ways of managing people’s donations. D Ritz has been teaching for nearly 10 years in a high school where the early graduation rate of the students was just 17%. He discovered a way to connect and intrigue these students, especially the ones who seemed the hardest to reach. Once, he received a package of flower bulbs (球茎) which he mistakenly thought were onions. He was afraid that they might become weapons (武器) in a classroom fight, so he hid them behind a radiator (暖气片) and forgot about them. Six weeks later, an angry girl ran after a boy who always made troubles. As usual, Ritz rushed towards them to break up what he thought was about to become a disaster. He saw the boy reach towards the radiator and thought he might have hidden a weapon there. To his surprise, the boy suddenly pulled out a bunch of yellow flowers and gave them to the girl as a peace offering. The girl decided to take the flowers home to her mother and peace came back. The forgotten bulbs were actually daffodils (黄水仙). The steam from the radiator had forced them into flowers. From such an experience, Ritz realized that if there was power in plants to stop a classroom fight, there must be power in plants to change students’ lives. He turned the moment of growing plants into a green course, a movement that would change his life and the lives of his students. He designed vegetable gardens into part of the school ground and on top of a building. Ritz’s students now have near-perfect attendance and graduation rates. His efforts have led him to be a great teacher who uses the power of a plant to give a voice to children. 12. What does the underlined word “intrigue” mean in paragraph 1? A. Interest. B. Protect. C. Punish. D. Challenge. 13. What stopped the fight between the boy and the girl? A. The radiator. B. A tasty dish. C. Some yellow flowers. D. The teacher’s words. 14. How are Ritz’s students affected by his green course? A. They have low attendance. B. They become the hardest to reach. C. They know how to make weapons. D. They fall in love with learning. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. What a Classroom Needs for a Fight B. Why a Plant Has an Effect on Students C. How a Teacher Changes His Students D. How a Teacher Becomes Popular 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12,5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法)is a powerful method that you can use to learn anything faster because it forces you to actively think about the problem instead of passively reading or listening to someone else talk about it.
