The first week of September was a week that I had been expecting all summer. I didn’t want summer to end, but I was excited about going to high school for my first week.
When I got to school in the morning on the first day I realized how large the school was, and how many students went there. I ended up in the wrong classroom because of the size of the school. Luckily, a kind senior showed up and guided me to my homeroom before I was late. I was happy to see that in a class of unfamiliar (不熟悉的) faces, the only open seat was next to my good friend, Casey. My science teacher seemed like a good teacher. She was exciting and fun.
After finishing four periods without too much of a challenge, I didn’t feel too bad about ninth grade. However, the fifth period changed everything. I didn’t feel ready after all. My teacher’s name is Mr. Valassidis but he told us to call him Mr. V. Mr. V. told us that we would have to write 40 essays (文章) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. I love reading and writing, but come on, 40 ESSAYS? AP-level books? Now I was afraid.
The courses in high school seem like they’re going to get much harder, but they haven’t yet. Even though my classes look hard, they look really exciting too.
The first week passed quickly. Although a lot of things were overwhelming (令人不知所措的): the size of the campus, the crowds and the seniors, having a totally different experience than I had ever had before was really exciting. Now, I’m really happy about high school. I have lots of friends in my classes, I really like my teachers and I’m meeting new people.

A. The strict rules in classes.
B. How his science teacher behaved.

D. What he was expected to do with his studies.

Morocco’s national women’s soccer team is set to make its first appearance at the FIFA Women’s World Cup. After years of being largely hidden, Moroccan women’s soccer is getting new growth at home and around the world.
During one game in May, the audience was not very big. The game was between a Moroccan national women’s professional league team and the armed forces team called ASFAR. ASFAR, a strong women’s team in Morocco, won 7 to 0.
Dressed in a shirt reading “Morocco” in Arabic, Aliae Benazzouza went to the field to meet the players. “I was very happy,” the young girl said. Idriss Benazzouza is Aliae’s father. “I teach my daughters confidence, not fear,” he said. “There is no difference between men and women in physical exercise.”
The national women’s team is known as the Lionesses. Benazzouza said the Lionesses shows “how women’s soccer has progressed” in the North African country. He said the team has filed him with joy.
Morocco hosted the 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations. The event drew large numbers of fans and augmented interest in this year’s worldwide women’s championship.
Hiba Karami plays for a local team called Fath Union Sport. The development in women’s soccer has made a dream of hers a reality. Last year, Karami was one of the players playing for Morocco in the FIFA under-17 Women’s World Cup. “Some kids or men would say that women belonged (属于) in the kitchen and weren’t made for soccer,” she said. “I knew that I loved the game and that I would play. Boys in my neighborhood accepted me because I played better than they did and they thought of me as a role model.”
Nouhaila Benzina also plays for the national team and for ASFAR. She said her soccer career (职业) opened up new chances for her. The 25-year-old never saw soccer going against her clothing. Many look up to her. “This makes me want to work harder to show girls that they can achieve great things,” Benzina said.
8. Which matches Aliae’s father’s opinion?
A. Women athletes are more popular. B. Women should work for happiness.

A new study in the journal of Tourism Analysis shows frequent travelers are happier with their lives than people who don’t travel at all.
Chun-Chu Chen, an assistant professor at Washington State University, conducted a survey to find out why some individuals travel more frequently than others and whether or not travel and tourism experiences have a lasting effect on happiness and wellness.
Additionally, participants in the survey who reported regularly traveling at least 75 miles away from home also reported being about 7% happier when asked about their overall well-being than those who reported traveling very rarely or not at all. The results of his analysis show individuals who pay more attention to tourism-related information and frequently discuss their travel plans with friends are more likely to go on regular vacations than those who aren’t constantly thinking about their next trip.
“While things like work, family life and friends play a bigger role in overall reports of well-being, the accumulation (积累) of travel experiences does appear to have a small yet noticeable effect on self-reported life satisfaction,” Chen said.
Participants in the study were asked about the importance of travel in their lives, how much time they spent looking into and planning future vacations, and how many trips they went on over a year. They were also asked about their life satisfaction. Out of the 500 survey participants, a little over half reported going on more than four pleasure trips a year. Only 7% of respondents did not take any vacations.
As travel restriction (限制) due to COVID-19 pandemic begin to relax in the future, the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry. Based on the results of the study, Chen said travel companies, resorts and even airlines, could launch social media campaigns, such as creating signs about the scientific benefits of vacation, to spark people’s interest in discussing their opinions about travel.
12. What is the benefit of frequent travelling according to the study?
A. Getting more tourism information. B. Making more friends.
C. Bettering tourism industry. D. Improving one’s well-being.
13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A. Why the professor carried out the study.
B. How the participants felt about the survey.
C. What the participants were interviewed about.
D. What the participants planned to do in the future.
14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Tourism industry should improve their service.
B. The results of the study will benefit tourism industry.
C. COVID-19 pandemic will be more serious in the future.
D. People will live a happier life after COVID-19 pandemic.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Travel more and be happier
B. Make good use of travelling
C. Prepare for the tourism development
D. Make travel plans with friends

Curtis Whitson knew Arroyo Seco very well. He had been to the camping site across the river many times with his friends.
But this time, it was different. Now he was with family: his wife and his 13-year-old son. And as they approached the river late in the afternoon, he found that the usually quiet river had turned wild due to a heavy rain two days before. It was impossible for them to cross the river to reach the camping site or return because it was too late.
“We cannot camp in the wildness and I have to send out a message for rescue,” Whitson thought.
He looked around and found a stick. He pulled out his pocketknife and carved “Help” in it. Then he tied a red rope to catch people's attention. He threw it into the river, but it did not float far and got stuck.
“Why not try our luck with our green Nalgene water bottle and put a note in it?” suggested his wife,
Whitson did as he was told and carved the word “help” on it before he threw the bottle into the river. This time, it worked perfectly.
“All right, we have tried our best to get help,” Whitson said, “But we should not just wait in this dangerous wildness in case…”
They walked up and down along the river bank for about 30 minutes and found a flat place to set up their tents. They collected enough dead branches and wood to keep a campfire going on all night. As the darkness closed in, they placed on the top of the camp a headlamp with its flashing light on. They waited until 10: 30 pm. But nothing happened. So they went to bed. Before turning in, Whitson added more wood to the fire to keep the dangerous animals away.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Shortly after midnight, they heard a helicopter circling above their tents.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the officers dropped them back at the rescue center, the family learned more about the whole story.

The first week of September was a week that I had been expecting all summer. I didn’t want summer to end, but I was excited about going to high school for my first week.
When I got to school in the morning on the first day I realized how large the school was, and how many students went there. I ended up in the wrong classroom because of the size of the school. Luckily, a kind senior showed up and guided me to my homeroom before I was late. I was happy to see that in a class of unfamiliar (不熟悉的) faces, the only open seat was next to my good friend, Casey. My science teacher seemed like a good teacher. She was exciting and fun.
After finishing four periods without too much of a challenge, I didn’t feel too bad about ninth grade. However, the fifth period changed everything. I didn’t feel ready after all. My teacher’s name is Mr. Valassidis but he told us to call him Mr. V. Mr. V. told us that we would have to write 40 essays (文章) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. I love reading and writing, but come on, 40 ESSAYS? AP-level books? Now I was afraid.
The courses in high school seem like they’re going to get much harder, but they haven’t yet. Even though my classes look hard, they look really exciting too.
The first week passed quickly. Although a lot of things were overwhelming (令人不知所措的): the size of the campus, the crowds and the seniors, having a totally different experience than I had ever had before was really exciting. Now, I’m really happy about high school. I have lots of friends in my classes, I really like my teachers and I’m meeting new people.

A new study in the journal of Tourism Analysis shows frequent travelers are happier with their lives than people who don’t travel at all.
Chun-Chu Chen, an assistant professor at Washington State University, conducted a survey to find out why some individuals travel more frequently than others and whether or not travel and tourism experiences have a lasting effect on happiness and wellness.
Additionally, participants in the survey who reported regularly traveling at least 75 miles away from home also reported being about 7% happier when asked about their overall well-being than those who reported traveling very rarely or not at all. The results of his analysis show individuals who pay more attention to tourism-related information and frequently discuss their travel plans with friends are more likely to go on regular vacations than those who aren’t constantly thinking about their next trip.
“While things like work, family life and friends play a bigger role in overall reports of well-being, the accumulation (积累) of travel experiences does appear to have a small yet noticeable effect on self-reported life satisfaction,” Chen said.
Participants in the study were asked about the importance of travel in their lives, how much time they spent looking into and planning future vacations, and how many trips they went on over a year. They were also asked about their life satisfaction. Out of the 500 survey participants, a little over half reported going on more than four pleasure trips a year. Only 7% of respondents did not take any vacations.
As travel restriction (限制) due to COVID-19 pandemic begin to relax in the future, the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry. Based on the results of the study, Chen said travel companies, resorts and even airlines, could launch social media campaigns, such as creating signs about the scientific benefits of vacation, to spark people’s interest in discussing their opinions about travel.
12. What is the benefit of frequent travelling according to the study?
A. Getting more tourism information. B. Making more friends.
C. Bettering tourism industry. D. Improving one’s well-being.
13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A. Why the professor carried out the study.
B. How the participants felt about the survey.
C. What the participants were interviewed about.
D. What the participants planned to do in the future.
14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Tourism industry should improve their service.
B. The results of the study will benefit tourism industry.
C. COVID-19 pandemic will be more serious in the future.
D. People will live a happier life after COVID-19 pandemic.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A Travel more and be happier
B. Make good use of travelling
C. Prepare for the tourism development
D. Make travel plans with friends
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A

47. 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。
Curtis Whitson knew Arroyo Seco very well. He had been to the camping site across the river many times with his friends.
But this time, it was different. Now he was with family: his wife and his 13-year-old son. And as they approached the river late in the afternoon, he found that the usually quiet river had turned wild due to a heavy rain two days before. It was impossible for them to cross the river to reach the camping site or return because it was too late.
“We cannot camp in the wildness and I have to send out a message for rescue,” Whitson thought.
He looked around and found a stick. He pulled out his pocketknife and carved “Help” in it. Then he tied a red rope to catch people's attention. He threw it into the river, but it did not float far and got stuck.
“Why not try our luck with our green Nalgene water bottle and put a note in it?” suggested his wife,
Whitson did as he was told and carved the word “help” on it before he threw the bottle into the river. This time, it worked perfectly.
“All right, we have tried our best to get help,” Whitson said, “But we should not just wait in this dangerous wildness in case…”
They walked up and down along the river bank for about 30 minutes and found a flat place to set up their tents. They collected enough dead branches and wood to keep a campfire going on all night. As the darkness closed in, they placed on the top of the camp a headlamp with its flashing light on. They waited until 10: 30 pm. But nothing happened. So they went to bed. Before turning in, Whitson added more wood to the fire to keep the dangerous animals away.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Shortly after midnight, they heard a helicopter circling above their tents.

【答案】Shortly after midnight, they heard a helicopter circling above their tents. Whitson jumped out of his sleeping bag excitedly and ran out to get the headlamp. While flashing the light at the helicopter, they kept waving theirs and shouting until they heard the magic words, “This is Search and Rescue. You have been found. We are looking for a good place to land. Please stay where you are.
When the officers dropped them back at the rescue center, the family learned more about the whole story. It turned out that a man living downstream saw the water bottle when he was fishing in the river. It was trapped in his fishing net. He picked it up and saw the word “Help!” on it. Immediately, he sent it to the rescuers, who found the note inside the water bottle. On hearing the story, Whitson's wife jumped up and hugged his husband and son, whispering to them, “What a romantic adventure!”
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Curtis Whitson和家人要去河边露营,但发现河水猛烈上涨,既无法到达露营地,也不可能回去,危险重重,在妻子的建议下他在一个漂流瓶上写上求救信息,把瓶子扔向水中,他们找到一个平坦的地方搭帐篷,做好准备,以期得救。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“午夜过后不久,他们听到一架直升机在帐篷上空盘旋。”可知,第一段可描写Whitson发现直升机来营救他们了。
②由第二段首句内容“当警察把他们送回救援中心时,他们一家对整个事件有了更多的了解。”可知,第二段可描写Whitson了解到,是因为有人捡到了漂流瓶并把纸条寄给了救援人员,他们才得救的,他们觉得这是一次浪漫的冒险。
2.续写线索:直升机来了——Whitson一家被找到——了解缘由——捡到瓶子——发现信息——救援成功——感悟
