But Shanya Gill, a middle schooler from San Jose, California, won the top award in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge for designing a fire detection system that is superior to existing ones, as stated in the press release. “The top winners have exhibited boundless curiosity,” Maya Ajmera president and CEO of Society for Science, said in the press release. “Their remarkable research not only reflects their talent but also paves the way for an exciting new future.” Shanya’s inspiration came after a fire destroyed a restaurant in her neighborhood during the summer of 2022, reported The Washington Post. “I had never really experienced something like that before,” she told The Washington Post about the early morning fire at Holder’s Country Inn, which started in the kitchen. “They had smoke detectors. and yet it still burned down,” she added. After she studied fire statistics, Shaya spent over a year developing a fire detection system that she believes could have prevented the fire. Unlike traditional smoke detectors that sense active fires from the smoke in the air, Shanya’s thermal (热的) imaging device is designed to stop fires from occurring. With a thermal camera and a Raspberry Pi, a tiny computer the device detects when a heat source has been left unattended for ten minutes and sends a text message warning. Creating the prototype(原型) was difficult and the hardest part was the programming, “I had two designs, and my first design completely failed. It was a really big challenge I had to go through.” she said. The final device outperforms smoke detectors in speed and accuracy. Shanya wants to bring the costs down to make it even more common than hardwired smoke detectors. “Shanya saw a problem, went after it and tried to solve it, and that’s what we need to encourage with all young people,” said Ajmera. She also highlighted the significance of supporting individuals, especially girls and kids of color, in STEM fields, as research indicates that many young people drop out of these areas. 24. What can we learn about Shanya from the first two paragraphs? A. She gained a lot of money in the award. B. She showed a curious nature as a schooler. C. She set a big stage for young people her age. D. She was junior to other winners in performance. 25. What motivated Shanya to develop her fire detection system? A. Her desire to win the science award. B. Her experience of a destructive fire. C. Her interest in computer programming. D. Her goal to improve STEM education for girls. 26 What is an advantage of Shanya’s invention? A. It consists of two parts that are easier to conduct. B. It can send out a warning against a potential fire. C. It can detect active fires from the smoke in the air. D. It functions when a fire breaks out within 10 minutes. 27. Which of the following can best describe Shanya? A. Reliable. B. Cooperative. C. Innovative. D. Generous. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了来自加州圣何塞的中学生Shanya Gill在赛默飞世尔科学少年创新者挑战赛中获得了最高奖项，因为她设计了一种优于现有系统的火灾探测系统。文章介绍了这种系统开发背后的灵感来源以及优点。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The top winners have exhibited boundless curiosity(顶级获奖者表现出了无限的好奇心)”可知，Shanya表现出学者好奇的天性。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Shanya’s inspiration came after a fire destroyed a restaurant in her neighborhood during the summer of 2022, reported The Washington Post.(据《华盛顿邮报》报道，Shanya的灵感来自于2022年夏天一场大火烧毁了她家附近的一家餐馆)”可知，经历了一场毁灭性的火灾促使Shanya开发她的火灾探测系统。故选B。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“With a thermal camera and a Raspberry Pi, a tiny computer the device detects when a heat source has been left unattended for ten minutes and sends a text message warning.(该设备配有热像仪和Raspberry Pi，配有一台微型计算机，当热源无人看管超过10分钟时，它就会检测到，并发出短信警告)”可知，Shanya的发明优点在于可以发出潜在火灾的警告。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“But Shanya Gill, a middle schooler from San Jose, California, won the top award in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge for designing a fire detection system that is superior to existing ones, as stated in the press release.(但是，来自加州圣何塞的中学生Shanya Gill在赛默飞世尔科学少年创新者挑战赛中获得了最高奖项，因为她设计了一种优于现有系统的火灾探测系统)”可推知，Shanya发明了一种优于现有系统的火灾探测系统，说明她很有创新精神。故选C。 C Since the last ice age, humans have cleared nearly half of the earth’s forests and grasslands for agriculture. With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland. A recent study from the University of California, however, shows how farmers may soon harvest crops and energy together. One researcher, Majdi Abou Najm, explains that visible light spectrum (光谱) can be separated into blue and red light waves, and their photons (光子) have different properties. Blue ones have higher energy than red ones. While that gives blue light what is needed to generate power, it also results in higher temperatures. “From a plant angle, red photons are the efficient ones,” says Abou Najm. “They don’t make the plant feel hot.” A goal of the study is to create a new generation of solar panels. He sees potential in the organic solar cells, which come from carbon-based materials. Thin and transparent, the cells are applied like a film onto various surfaces. This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below. These panels could also provide shade for heat-sensitive fruits during the hottest part of the day. By 2050, we’ll have two billion more people, and we’ll need more food and more energy. By maximizing the solar spectrum, “we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,” says Abou Najm. “If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.” 28. What problem does the first paragraph focus on? A. Losing cropland to solar panels. B. Distribution of the world population. C. Reduction in forests and grasslands. D. Competing for land between farmers. 29. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Generation of solar power. B. Hot weather increasing efficiency. C. Blue photons having higher energy. D. Separation of visible light spectrum. 30. What do we know about the organic solar cells? A. They make fruits heat-sensitive. B. They can cool down in hot days, C. They allow red light to pass through. D. They can store carbon-based materials. 31. What does Abou Najm think of the future of the new solar panels? A. Limited. B. Promising. C. Uncertain. D. Challenging. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了一项研究表明，可以通过开发新一代太阳能电池板来收获红色和蓝色的光波，分别满足农业和发电的需要，最大限度地利用太阳能。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland.(随着世界人口的增长，农田不仅要生产更多的粮食，还要生产清洁能源，农田的压力越来越大。在华盛顿州亚基马县等地，由于需要土地的太阳能电池板消耗了可用的田地，这就造成了空间竞争。上个月，该州批准了用太阳能电池板覆盖1700英亩农田的计划，这加剧了人们对失去农田的长期影响的担忧。)”可知，第一段主要讲述了太阳能电池板占据农田，导致农田空间减少。故选A。 【29题详解】 代词指代题。that为指示代词，常用来指代上文提到的事物。根据画线词前一句“Blue ones have higher energy than red ones.(蓝色的光子比红色的光子能量高。)”可知，that指代的是蓝色光子有更高的能量，更高的能量给予了产生电所需的蓝光。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below.(这项新技术可以用于开发特殊的太阳能电池板，该电池板可以阻挡蓝光发电，同时让红光传给正下方种植的作物。)”可知，这种有机太阳能电池板能够阻挡蓝光，让红光通过。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“By maximizing the solar spectrum, ‘we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,’ says Abou Najm. ‘If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.’(Abou Najm说，通过最大限度地利用太阳能光谱，‘我们正在充分利用无尽的可持续资源。’‘如能够开发出这些面板的果一项技术生效，那么我们的效率就是无限的。’)”可知，Abou Najm认为有机太阳能电池板能够最大限度地利用无尽的太阳能资源，让人类的效率变得无限，由此可推测出，他认为有机太阳能电池板非常有前景。故选B。 D “Anxiety.” The very word invites discomfort. Its effects—shortness of breath, pounding heart, muscle tension—are outright upsetting. But, as a clinician, I find that we tend to miss out on many valuable opportunities presented by this human emotion. In and of itself, anxiety is not deadly, nor is it a disease. Quite the contrary: it is an indicator of brain and sensory health. Once we accept that it is a normal, though uncomfortable, part of life, we can use it to help us. We all know working out at the gym is hard. By nature, a “good workout” is uncomfortable, since it involves pushing our physical strength past what we can easily do. The sweet spot of exercise is always a somewhat challenging experience. Similarly, if you want to be emotionally stronger, you need to face some tension. For example, one effective treatment for fear is exposure therapy (疗法), which involves gradually encountering things that make one anxious, reducing fear over time. Humans are social creatures. When my patients learn to open up to their partners about their anxieties, they almost always report a greater sense of emotional closeness. Also, as international relationship expert Sue Johnson teaches, when we express our need for connection during challenging moments (e.g., “I’m having a hard time right now and could really use your support”), it creates greater connection and turns our anxiety into love. From time to time, we find ourselves at the end of our rope. Our responsibilities pile up, our resources break down, and we feel uncomfortably anxious—what we’re experiencing is called stress. Simply put, the demands placed upon us outweigh our available resources, just like a set of scales (天平) going out of balance. Focusing on work and pretending everything is OK only leads to disastrous results. Medical treatment for stress may function for a while, but it tends to make things worse in the long run. The only solution to deal with stress is to do the mathematics to balance the scales. 32. What does the author say about anxiety? A. It is an invitation to diseases. B. It indicates stable mental health. C. It costs us many valuable chances. D. It is a natural emotional expression. 33. Why does the author mention “good workout” in paragraph 2? A. To prove how exercise influences emotions. B. To suggest an effective way to challenge limits. C. To explain how anxiety builds emotional strength. D. To show a positive connection between mind and body. 34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The key to closeness is partners’ support. B. Sharing anxieties improves relationships. C. Humans are defined by their social nature. D. Expressing feelings keeps us off anxieties. 35. According to the last paragraph, how can we deal with stress? A. Devote more energy to our work. B. Increase resources available to us. C. Seek professional medical treatment. D Master advanced mathematical skills. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了焦虑虽然令人不舒服，但接受它对我们有帮助。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Quite the contrary: it is an indicator of brain and sensory health. Once we accept that it is a normal, though uncomfortable, part of life, we can use it to help us.(恰恰相反：它是大脑和感官健康的指标。一旦我们接受这是生活中正常的一部分，尽管不舒服，我们就可以用它来帮助我们。)”可知，焦虑是一种正常的情感表露。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“By nature, a ‘good workout’ is uncomfortable, since it involves pushing our physical strength past what we can easily do.(从本质上讲，‘好的锻炼’是不舒服的，因为它涉及到将我们的体力推过我们可以轻松完成的事情。)”和“Similarly, if you want to be emotionally stronger, you need to face some tension.(同样，如果你想在情感上更坚强，你需要面对一些紧张。)”可知，好的锻炼需要挑战身体的舒适区，同样，要想在情感上更坚强，有必要面对一些紧张，由此可推测出，提到“好的锻炼”是为了说明焦虑是如何帮助增强情感力量的。故选C。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Humans are social creatures. When my patients learn to open up to their partners about their anxieties, they almost always report a greater sense of emotional closeness. Also, as international relationship expert Sue Johnson teaches, when we express our need for connection during challenging moments (e.g., ‘I’m having a hard time right now and could really use your support’), it creates greater connection and turns our anxiety into love.(人类是社会生物。当我的病人学会向他们的伴侣敞开心扉表达他们的焦虑时，他们几乎总是报告说有更大的情感亲密感。此外，正如国际关系专家Sue Johnson所教导的那样，当我们在充满挑战的时刻表达我们对联系的需求时（例如，‘我现在很难过，真的需要你的支持’），这会产生更大的联系，并将我们的焦虑转化为爱。)”可推出，本段主要讲述了分享焦虑有助于改善人际关系。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Simply put, the demands placed upon us outweigh our available resources, just like a set of scales (天平) going out of balance.(简单地说，对我们的要求超过了我们现有的资源，就像一组天平失去平衡一样。)”和“The only solution to deal with stress is to do the mathematics to balance the scales.(处理压力的唯一解决方案是通过数学来平衡天平。)”可知，对我们的要求超过了我们现有的资源，所以天平失去了平衡，而唯一的方法是通过数学来平衡天平，由此可推测出，要增加可用的资源，以便达到平衡。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5) 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。 Questions You Must Answer to Find Your True Path in Life Walking the path of life is no more different than exploring uncharted territories, many of us stop occasionally and ask ourselves questions such as: “Am I doing this right?

This is because it can apply to every aspect of your life G. Don’t worry if you are unable to answer these questions right this very moment. 【答案】36. E 37. D 38. A 39. C 40. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。作者提供了一系列问题和反思，以引导读者探寻和发现自己人生中的真正道路。 【36题详解】 根据前文“Walking the path of life is no more different than exploring uncharted territories, many of us stop occasionally and ask ourselves questions such as: “Am I doing this right? How do I know this is what has to be done?(走在人生的道路上和探索未知的领域没有什么不同，我们中的许多人偶尔会停下来问自己这样的问题：“我这样做对吗？我怎么知道这是必须要做的？”)”可知，此处是在列举许多人问自己的问题，所以E项“If not, is there a guide I can read and memorize?(如果没有，有没有我可以阅读和记忆的指南？)”符合，也是在列举问题，且承接前句。故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据前文“Being honest about why you want to achieve that can provide you with a powerful incentive (激励) that will drive you towards your goals. Write down the things that cross your mind when you think of your whys.(诚实地说出你想要实现目标的原因可以为你提供强大的动力，推动你朝着目标前进。当你想到为什么的时候，写下你脑海中闪过的东西。)”可知，本段讲述了为什么找到自己真正的人生道路的原因，根据后文“You are a unique person with unique needs and wishes.(你是一个独特的人，有着独特的需求和愿望)”可知，每个人的原因不同，所以D项“Your reasons should be important only for you.(你的理由应该只对你自己重要)”符合此处主题。故选D项。 【38题详解】 分析设空，为本段小标题，根据后文“Is this your authentic (真正的) need or is it something that is trendy and you want to try it out? Ask yourself this question whenever you catch that . ”I’m a little bit bored right now“ thought. Maybe you don’t need to bring radical changes into your life. Remember that how we approach certain obstacles can define how we feel when trying to overcome them.(这是你真正的需求，还是只是一种潮流，你想尝试一下？每当你陷入“我现在有点无聊”的想法时，问自己这个问题。也许你不需要给你的生活带来彻底的改变。记住，我们如何处理某些障碍，可以决定我们在克服它们时的感受。)”可知，文中提到了问自己这个问题，但是前文未有提及，所以应是小标题为一个问题，，所以A项“Is this my choice?(这是我的选择吗？)”符合，且和本段内容切合。故选A项。 【39题详解】 根据前文“You can start by writing down what is important to you.(你可以从写下对你重要的事情开始。)”以及后文“Take your time.(慢慢来。)”可知，此处主要讲述列出对你重要的事情，所以C项“Don’t make your list in just one sitting.(不要一次就列出你的清单。)”符合此处主题，且引出下文。故选C项。 【40题详解】 根据后文“Finding your true path in life is a slow process. Finally, let me finish by a quote, “To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others.”(找到人生真正的道路是一个缓慢的过程。最后，让我用一句话来结束，“征服自己比征服别人更艰巨。”)”可知，本段是本文的总结段，是对本文的总结，所以G项“Don’t worry if you are unable to answer these questions right this very moment.(如果你现在不能回答这些问题，也不要担心。)”符合本段主题，是对前文的总结，且和后文构成顺承关系。故选G项。 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At 13, I resolved to be an amazing teacher, overwhelmingly driven by a ____41____ desire for superpowers, which some of my gorgeous teachers had.

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） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高三年级英语期中考试卷 第I卷(选择题) 第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分) 做题时,先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后,你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分) 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Why does the woman intend to go to Rome?

B Winning a remarkable science award is really a big deal, especially if you are 12 years old. But Shanya Gill, a middle schooler from San Jose, California, won the top award in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge for designing a fire detection system that is superior to existing ones, as stated in the press release. “The top winners have exhibited boundless curiosity,” Maya Ajmera president and CEO of Society for Science, said in the press release. “Their remarkable research not only reflects their talent but also paves the way for an exciting new future.” Shanya’s inspiration came after a fire destroyed a restaurant in her neighborhood during the summer of 2022, reported The Washington Post. “I had never really experienced something like that before,” she told The Washington Post about the early morning fire at Holder’s Country Inn, which started in the kitchen. “They had smoke detectors. and yet it still burned down,” she added. After she studied fire statistics, Shaya spent over a year developing a fire detection system that she believes could have prevented the fire. Unlike traditional smoke detectors that sense active fires from the smoke in the air, Shanya’s thermal (热的) imaging device is designed to stop fires from occurring. With a thermal camera and a Raspberry Pi, a tiny computer the device detects when a heat source has been left unattended for ten minutes and sends a text message warning. Creating the prototype(原型) was difficult and the hardest part was the programming, “I had two designs, and my first design completely failed. It was a really big challenge I had to go through.” she said. The final device outperforms smoke detectors in speed and accuracy. Shanya wants to bring the costs down to make it even more common than hardwired smoke detectors. “Shanya saw a problem, went after it and tried to solve it, and that’s what we need to encourage with all young people,” said Ajmera. She also highlighted the significance of supporting individuals, especially girls and kids of color, in STEM fields, as research indicates that many young people drop out of these areas. 24. What can we learn about Shanya from the first two paragraphs? A. She gained a lot of money in the award. B. She showed a curious nature as a schooler. C. She set a big stage for young people her age. D. She was junior to other winners in performance. 25. What motivated Shanya to develop her fire detection system? A. Her desire to win the science award. B. Her experience of a destructive fire. C. Her interest in computer programming. D. Her goal to improve STEM education for girls. 26. What is an advantage of Shanya’s invention? A. It consists of two parts that are easier to conduct. B. It can send out a warning against a potential fire. C. It can detect active fires from the smoke in the air. D. It functions when a fire breaks out within 10 minutes. 27. Which of the following can best describe Shanya? A. Reliable. B. Cooperative. C. Innovative. D. Generous. C Since the last ice age, humans have cleared nearly half of the earth’s forests and grasslands for agriculture. With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland. A recent study from the University of California, however, shows how farmers may soon harvest crops and energy together. One researcher, Majdi Abou Najm, explains that visible light spectrum (光谱) can be separated into blue and red light waves, and their photons (光子) have different properties. Blue ones have higher energy than red ones. While that gives blue light what is needed to generate power, it also results in higher temperatures. “From a plant angle, red photons are the efficient ones,” says Abou Najm. “They don’t make the plant feel hot.” A goal of the study is to create a new generation of solar panels. He sees potential in the organic solar cells, which come from carbon-based materials. Thin and transparent, the cells are applied like a film onto various surfaces. This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below. These panels could also provide shade for heat-sensitive fruits during the hottest part of the day. By 2050, we’ll have two billion more people, and we’ll need more food and more energy. By maximizing the solar spectrum, “we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,” says Abou Najm. “If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.” 28. What problem does the first paragraph focus on? A. Losing cropland to solar panels. B. Distribution of the world population. C. Reduction in forests and grasslands. D. Competing for land between farmers. 29. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Generation of solar power. B. Hot weather increasing efficiency. C. Blue photons having higher energy. D. Separation of visible light spectrum. 30. What do we know about the organic solar cells? A. They make fruits heat-sensitive. B. They can cool down in hot days, C. They allow red light to pass through. D. They can store carbon-based materials. 31. What does Abou Najm think of the future of the new solar panels? A. Limited. B. Promising. C. Uncertain. D. Challenging. D “Anxiety.” The very word invites discomfort. Its effects—shortness of breath, pounding heart, muscle tension—are outright upsetting. But, as a clinician, I find that we tend to miss out on many valuable opportunities presented by this human emotion. In and of itself, anxiety is not deadly, nor is it a disease. Quite the contrary: it is an indicator of brain and sensory health. Once we accept that it is a normal, though uncomfortable, part of life, we can use it to help us. We all know working out at the gym is hard. By nature, a “good workout” is uncomfortable, since it involves pushing our physical strength past what we can easily do. The sweet spot of exercise is always a somewhat challenging experience. Similarly, if you want to be emotionally stronger, you need to face some tension. For example, one effective treatment for fear is exposure therapy (疗法), which involves gradually encountering things that make one anxious, reducing fear over time. Humans are social creatures. When my patients learn to open up to their partners about their anxieties, they almost always report a greater sense of emotional closeness. Also, as international relationship expert Sue Johnson teaches, when we express our need for connection during challenging moments (e.g., “I’m having a hard time right now and could really use your support”), it creates greater connection and turns our anxiety into love. From time to time, we find ourselves at the end of our rope. Our responsibilities pile up, our resources break down, and we feel uncomfortably anxious—what we’re experiencing is called stress. Simply put, the demands placed upon us outweigh our available resources, just like a set of scales (天平) going out of balance. Focusing on work and pretending everything is OK only leads to disastrous results. Medical treatment for stress may function for a while, but it tends to make things worse in the long run. The only solution to deal with stress is to do the mathematics to balance the scales. 32. What does the author say about anxiety? A. It is an invitation to diseases. B. It indicates stable mental health. C. It costs us many valuable chances. D. It is a natural emotional expression. 33. Why does the author mention “good workout” in paragraph 2? A. To prove how exercise influences emotions. B. To suggest an effective way to challenge limits. C. To explain how anxiety builds emotional strength. D To show a positive connection between mind and body. 34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The key to closeness is partners’ support. B. Sharing anxieties improves relationships. C. Humans are defined by their social nature. D. Expressing feelings keeps us off anxieties. 35. According to the last paragraph, how can we deal with stress? A. Devote more energy to our work. B. Increase resources available to us. C. Seek professional medical treatment. D. Master advanced mathematical skills. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5) 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。 Questions You Must Answer to Find Your True Path in Life Walking the path of life is no more different than exploring uncharted territories, many of us stop occasionally and ask ourselves questions such as: “Am I doing this right?

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. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
