That creature is gone forever. Many people are worried about this happening to a large number of wild animals. They spend time campaigning to help preserve wildlife. One of the best- known preservationists is Caroline Smith. She is an attractive young woman who works for the National Grand Zoo. Caroline Smith’s vast knowledge of animals makes her a frequent guest on TV talk shows. She has been on the “Kyrie Belle Show” over forty times. She explains common errors in thinking about wildlife. For example, gorillas aren’t the violent, cruel and rude animals they appear to be. They are really quite shy. Monkeys that smile aren’t as happy as they seem. In fact, a monkey’s ear- to- ear smile means “watch out”. Snakes really help nature by eating harmful insects. So people should try to protect them. Caroline Smith hopes that once people understand animals better, they will do their best to preserve them. How lucky animals are to have a friend like Caroline Smith! 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Below are stories of kids who saw a need in the world and set out to fix it. Hearing the stories will inspire generosity and charity in your own kids. Janine Licare and Aislin Livingstone — Kids Saving the Rainforest: Janine and Aislin were 9 when they saw the rainforest disappearing in Costa Rica. Being dissatisfied with how their donations were being spent with other rainforest charities, they began their own organization—Kids Saving the Rainforest. Austin Gutwein — Hoops of Hope: At 10, Austin watched a video of children who had lost their parents due to AIDS. Austin decided to organize a charity called Hoops of Hope. Through sponsorships, participants have raised over $2.5 million to provide those kids access to food, clothing and shelter. However, Hoops of Hope is now closed. Mackenzie Bearup — Sheltering Books: Mackenzie was 13 when she began collecting children’s books for shelters in and around Alpharetta, Georgia. It soon became a family project with her 2 brothers working alongside her. In total, they have collected and donated over 360,000 books for shelters across the world. Annie Wignall — Care Bags 4 Kids: At 11, Annie began the Care Bags 4 Kids when she discovered there were many kids in crisis situations who had to leave their homes.

Being dissatisfied with how their donations were being spent with other rainforest charities, they began their own organization—Kids Saving the Rainforest.”（珍妮和艾斯林9岁时看到哥斯达黎加的雨林正在消失。由于不满意自己的捐款被其他热带雨林慈善机构使用，他们成立了自己的组织——儿童拯救热带雨林。）可知，Kids Saving the Rainforest 关注的是雨林保护。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, Hoops of Hope is now closed.”（然而，Hoops of Hope现在关闭了）可知，奥斯汀·古特温的慈善组织的特别之处是现在无法进入。故选A项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Hearing the stories will inspire generosity and charity in your own kids.”（听这些故事会激发你孩子的慷慨和慈善）可推知，文章的目的是通过这些孩子的故事来激发读者自己孩子的慷慨和慈善行为，因此目标读者是父母，故选B。 B Growing up, Maitri Wadher, a left-hander, has struggled to cope in a world made for right-handed people. From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age. “My mother used to tie my left hand and make me eat with my right until a doctor warned that this could significantly affect my growth and confidence,” Maitri says. This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people. Starting The Left Out Store wasn’t in the cards for Maitri for a very long time. The idea for The Left Out Store came to Maitri in just 20 minutes during a festival at St. Joseph’s Institute of Management, where she was a post-graduate student. She presented the rough idea to judges who later became sponsors, and they enthusiastically supported it. This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market. Initially, Maitri faced a few hiccups. It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products. With everything in place, Maitri went through a tough time reaching customers. The first time she made a proper sale was at an exhibition at Lalit Ashok. “People were surprised at first, but gradually more left-handed people began approaching me, and said they relate to my struggles.” Since then, she has been regularly marketing her products at exhibitions, and keeps The Left Out Store active on social media. 24. What challenge did Maitri face as a left-hander while growing up? A. Unfair judgement. B. Lack of parents’ love. C. Limited access to education. D. Struggle with school tools. 25. How did Maitri turn her idea into a reality? A. By seeking student sponsors. B. By conducting market research. C. By expanding the potential market. D. By carrying out her long-thought plan. 26. What does the underlined word “hiccups” probably mean? A. Barriers. B. Threats C. Complaints. D. Oppositions. 27. What might be a suitable title for the passage? A. A Left-Hander’s Struggles B. Maitri’s Marketing Strategies C. Maitri: A Social Media Celebrity D. The Left Out Store: Maitri’s Journey 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Maitri因为是左撇子，从小在学校遇到了很多困难。于是后来她萌生了创办“左手商店”的想法，并通过努力付诸实践。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age.(从学校的课桌到阻止书写自然流畅的螺旋笔记本，Maitri从小就面临着严峻的挑战)”可知，作为一名左撇子，Maitri在成长过程中遇到的挑战是与学校工具作斗争。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market.(这种鼓励促使她把它变成一个市场研究项目，以试水和探索潜在市场)”可知，Maitri通过开展市场研究项目把她的想法变成现实。故选B。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products.(她花了很长时间才找到供应商，并让他们了解如何制作产品)”可知，她花了很长时间才找到供应商，并让他们了解如何制作产品，说明一开始遇到了障碍。故划线词意思是“障碍”。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people.(这段童年经历一直在她的脑海里挥之不去，促使她做些事情来缓解其他左撇子的生活。2018年9月，她创办了“左手商店”，生产从左撇子书写工具、剪刀到左撇子厨房工具等日常用品)”结合文章主要讲述了Maitri因为是左撇子，从小在学校遇到了很多困难。于是后来她萌生了创办“左手商店”的想法，并通过努力付诸实践。可知，D选项“左手商店：Maitri的旅程”最符合文章标题。故选D。 C Should humans kill members of one bird species to help protect another? That’s the question scientists and conservationists are struggling with right now in the Pacific Northwest. In a bid to save northern spotted owls from extinction, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has suggested shooting more than 470,000 barred owls over the next 30 years. The proposal — which is still a draft and will remain open for public comment — has drawn criticism from some wildlife conservationists and highlights the difficulties land managers face while trying to maintain the delicate balance of ecosystems. Spotted owls and barred owls are closely related. But only spotted owls are native to the Pacific Northwest. Barred owls, an alien species, have slowly come to dominate the region over the last century. Their larger size, more generalist nature and faster reproduction rate have prepared them to out compete spotted owls, whose numbers have dropped by roughly 75 percent over the last 20 years, according to the USFWS. Biologists have long wondered how to keep the barred owl population in check. In 2021, scientists published the results of an experiment that involved killing 2,485 barred owls in five study areas. Over five years, spotted owl survival rates increased by an average of 10 percent at the sites. But to truly recover, spotted owls might need more than five years, because they are slow to reproduce. That’s the driving factor behind the agency’s recently proposed long-term management plan. Conservationists have mixed feelings about the plan. While they understand that science may support killing barred owls, they worry about the moral inference of killing off members of one species to save another. Bob Sallinger, executive director of the nonprofit Bird Conservation Oregon, says, “We don’t think it’s moral because they are currently doing better in the existing environment.” He describes it as a no-win situation that humans have created for ourselves. “Rather than choosing to conserve one bird over the other, this is about conserving two species,” says Kessina Lee, supervisor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service office in Oregon. “Spotted owls are fighting for their existence right now. However, even if the service was able to remove that number of barred owls over the next 30 years, that would represent less than 1 percent of the global population of barred owls.” 28. Why is the USFWS proposing the long-term plan? A. To do biography research on owls. B. To recover spotted owl’s population. C. To balance the birth rates of two owls. D. To improve spotted owl’s reproductive ability. 29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The relationship between two owls. B. The outcomes caused by alien species. C. The alarming situation of spotted owls. D. The physical advantages of barred owls. 30. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. The agency’s proposal. B. Existing environment. C. Conservationists’ concern. D. The co- existence of two owls. 31. What’s Kessina Lee’s attitude to the plan? A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Favourable. D. Doubtful. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）提议在未来30年里扑杀横纹猫头鹰来拯救北方本土斑点猫头鹰，这引起了野生动物保护者的强烈反对。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In a bid to save northern spotted owls from extinction, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service(USFWS) has suggested shooting more than 470,000 barred owls over the next 30 years.(为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）建议在未来30年内射杀47万只横纹猫头鹰。)”可知，USFWS提出这项猎杀计划是为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，恢复其数量。故选B。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Barred owls, an alien species, have slowly come to dominate the region over the last century. Their larger size, more generalist nature and faster reproduction rate have prepared them to out compete spotted owls, whose numbers have dropped by roughly 75 percent over the last 20 years, according to the USFWS.(在过去的一个世纪里，一种外来物种——横纹猫头鹰已经慢慢主导了该地区。根据美国鱼类和野生动物管理局的数据，它们更大的体型、更多面手的天性和更快的繁殖率使它们能够战胜斑点猫头鹰，斑点猫头鹰的数量在过去20年里下降了约75%。)”可知，本段主要讲述了横纹猫头鹰的生理优势使其占据了优势地位。故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“Conservationists have mixed feelings about the plan.(环保主义者对这项计划有着复杂的感情。)”和“He describes it as a no-win situation that humans have created for ourselves.(他将其描述为人类为自己创造的一种注定失败的局面。)”可知，it指代前面所说的the plan，再结合第二段中的“In a bid to save northern spotted owls from extinction, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service(USFWS) has suggested shooting more than 470,000 barred owls over the next 30 years.(为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）建议在未来30年内射杀47万只横纹猫头鹰。)”可知，the plan指的是USFWS的提议。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Rather than choosing to conserve one bird over the other, this is about conserving two species,” says Kessina Lee, supervisor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service office in Oregon. “Spotted owls are fighting for their existence right now. However, even if the service was able to remove that number of barred owls over the next 30 years, that would represent less than 1 percent of the global population of barred owls.”(俄勒冈州美国鱼类和野生动物管理局办公室主管Kessina Lee说：“不是选择保护一种鸟类放弃另一种，这是在保护两种鸟类。斑点猫头鹰现在正在为生存而战。然而，即使该服务能够在未来30年内清除如此数量的横纹猫头鹰，这也只占全球横纹猫头鹰种群的不到1%。”)”可知，Kessina Lee认为这个计划是在保护两种鸟类，即便猎杀了这么多数量的横纹猫头鹰，也只是占全球横纹猫头鹰种群的不到1%，不会对横纹猫头鹰造成种群灭绝危机，由此可推测出，他支持该项计划。故选C。 D A team decided to perform an experiment inspired by their collective passion for Kung-fu. The group was made up of Michael Feld, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, undergraduates Ronald McNair and Stephen Wilk. They wanted to know: How can a bare hand break a solid block of wood or concrete without injury? What’s the trick? Feld, McNair, and Wilk placed wood and concrete in a machine to determine the amount of stress needed to break the underside of the objects. A wood block can bend by about one centimetre before it breaks, which requires a force of 500 newtons. Concrete blocks only need to be bent one millimeter before breaking, but since the material is hardly bendable, that displacement requires 2,500 to 3,000 newtons. And because some energy is lost upon collision (碰撞), the fist needs to apply even more force than that in order to actually break the blocks. Thankfully, the human hand is capable of generating a very high degree of force in a very short time. The team discovered that within this brief time, “the hand of the Kung-fu master can apply a force of more than 3,000 newtons.” The team’s model indicates that the hand must reach a speed of 6.1 meters per second to break wood and 10.6 meters per second to break concrete. They write, “the former speed is within range of the beginner, but the latter one calls for training.” The obvious follow-up question: “How is it that the hand of the Kung-fu master is not hurt by the force of the strike?” Here, it’s science to the rescue: Human bone is five times firmer than concrete and fifty times harder to break. Of course, it’s technique, not strength, that provides the real power. “The precision to hit the center of the board makes kung-fu not only an excellent physical discipline but also a mental one.” 32. What is the motivation of the team’s experiment? A. To explore the mechanics of barehanded strikes. B. To assess durability of different materials. C. To demonstrate their passion for Kung-fu. D. To manage the trick of breaking concrete. 33. What can be inferred about barehanded breaking? A. Bendability is a contributing factor. B. Kung-fu masters can break all objects. C. Concrete bends more before breaking. D. More energy is lost when breaking concrete. 34. What do Kung-fu beginners need to successfully break concrete without injury? A. A hand speed of 6.1 meters per second. B. Excellent academic discipline. C. A large amount of practice. D. The precise measurements. 35. What is the last paragraph mainly talking about concerning the strike? A. Its follow-up experiments. B. Its influence on human bones. C. The trick of avoiding bone injury. D. Ways to improve its effectiveness. 【答案】32. A 33. A 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一支团队为了探究空手劈断木块或混凝土块的现象，进行了科学实验，分析了这种现象背后的科学原理，并解释了为什么功夫大师的手不会因用力劈块而受伤。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“They wanted to know: How can a bare hand break a solid block of wood or concrete without injury? What’s the trick? (他们想知道:徒手如何能打碎一块实心的木头或混凝土而不受伤?诀窍是什么?)”可知，他们的实验目的是探究这一现象背后的力学原理，故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“A wood block can bend by about one centimetre before it breaks, which requires a force of 500 newtons. Concrete blocks only need to be bent one millimeter before breaking, but since the material is hardly bendable, that displacement requires 2,500 to 3,000 newtons.(一块木块在断裂之前可以弯曲约1厘米，这需要500牛顿的力。混凝土块只需要弯曲1毫米就会断裂，但由于这种材料很难弯曲，因此力学位移需要2500到3000牛顿。)”可知，不同材料的可弯曲性会影响所需的力，故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The team’s model indicates that the hand must reach a speed of 6.1 meters per second to break wood and 10.6 meters per second to break concrete. They writethe former speed is within range of the beginner, the latter one calls for training(该团队模型表明，手必须达到每秒6.1米的速度才能折断木头，10.6米的速度才能折断混凝土。他们写到：前者的速度在初学者的能力范围内，后者需要训练)”可知，功夫初学者要成功劈断混凝土而不受伤，需要大量的练习。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Here, it’s science to the rescue: Human bone is five times firmer than concrete and fifty times harder to break. Of course, it’s technique, not strength, that provides the real power. “The precision to hit the center of the board makes kung-fu not only an excellent physical discipline but also a mental one.”(现在，科学来解释:人骨的硬度是混凝土的5倍，而断裂的难度是混凝土的50倍。当然，提供真正力量的是技术，而不是力量。“精准击中板的中心使功夫不仅是一项优秀的身体训练，也是一项精神训练。”)”可知，文章主要讲述了功夫大师如何在不伤手的情况下劈断混凝土块的科学的诀窍。故选C。 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。 If you’ve ever been on a long-haul (长途的) flight, you’ll know that it can be challenging to keep yourself rested and occupied for that many hours, especially if you’re not flying first-class. ____36____. Check out these 5 tips on how to make your flight more bearable. Start by dressing for comfort. Since you’ll be in those clothes for over 24 hours — from the time you leave your home till you reach your destination — you’ll want to make sure that you’re wearing comfortably. Pick out casual clothes with loose-fitting tops and bottoms. ____37____. They also don’t restrict blood flow, which could be an issue when you’re sitting for so long. ____38____. These include a travel pillow, an eye mask and ear plugs to help you sleep. Also bring along your own earphones as the ones provided by the airline may not fit comfortably or have great sound. Once you board, monitor the time at your destination and adjust your sleep-wake cycle accordingly, even if it means resisting the temptation of in-flight entertainment to sleep during the night. ____39____. It will help with the jetlag that will surely come after you touch down. Lastly, drink plenty of water to counteract the dry cabin air — shoot for a glass every hour. Bring a big empty water bottle with you on the plane and once you’re comfortably seated and before the plane takes off, ask a flight attendant to get it full. ____40____. A. They aren’t only for your comfort B. Next, pack some creature comforts C. Then, bring about the most advanced device D. Sticking to this new routine will pay off later E. To calm your nerves, do it at the start of the flight F. This way, you don’t have to keep asking for refilling throughout the flight G. Try to avoid looking like you’ve just wrestled a bear when stepping off the flight 【答案】36. G 37. A 38. B 39. D 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在长途飞行中保持舒适和打发时间的五个小建议 ，包括穿着舒适的衣物、携带个人舒适物品、调整生物钟、保持充足的水分和使用大水瓶等。 【36题详解】 根据后文的“Check out these 5 tips on how to make your flight more bearable.(看看这5个小贴士，让你的飞行更容易忍受)”可知，本句为引入五条建议的地方。G选项提到的“Try to avoid looking like you’ve just wrestled a bear when stepping off the flight(下飞机的时候，尽量避免看起来像刚和熊搏斗过一样)”是对如何改善长途飞行体验的建议的引入。故选G。 【37题详解】 根据上文提到的“Start by dressing for comfort.(首先要穿得舒适)”和“Pick out casual clothes with loose-fitting tops and bottoms.(选择宽松的上装和下装)”以及下文“They also don’t restrict blood flow, which could be an issue when you’re sitting for so long.(它们也不会限制血液流动，当你长时间坐着时，这可能是一个问题。)”可知，此处描述穿着舒适的好处。A选项中的“They aren’t only for your comfort(它们不仅仅是为了你的舒适)”说明了穿着舒适的衣物不仅仅是为了舒适，也有其他好处，符合语境。故选A。 【38题详解】 设空处为本段主旨句；根据后文“These include a travel pillow, an eye mask and ear plugs to help you sleep. Also bring along your own earphones as the ones provided by the airline may not fit comfortably or have great sound.(这些东西包括一个旅行枕头，一个眼罩和耳塞来帮助你入睡。带上自己的耳机，因为航空公司提供的耳机可能不太舒服，或者声音不好)”可知，本段主要介绍了带一些个人舒适物品，如旅行枕、眼罩和耳塞。B选项中的“Next, pack some creature comforts(接下来，带上一些舒适的东西)”符合本段主旨，引领下文。故选B。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Once you board, monitor the time at your destination and adjust your sleep-wake cycle accordingly, even if it means resisting the temptation of in-flight entertainment to sleep during the night.(登机后，要监控目的地的时间，并相应地调整你的睡眠—觉醒周期，即使这意味着要抵制飞机上娱乐节目的诱惑，在晚上睡觉)”以及下文“It will help with the jetlag that will surely come after you touch down.(这将有助于缓解你降落后肯定会出现的时差。)”可知，要调整睡眠—觉醒周期有助于帮助解决时差问题。D选项中的“Sticking to this new routine will pay off later(坚持这个新习惯以后会有好结果的)”承上启下，指出坚持新的作息习惯会奏效，符合语境。故选D。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Bring a big empty water bottle with you on the plane and once you’re comfortably seated and before the plane takes off, ask a flight attendant to get it full.(带上一个大的空水瓶，在飞机起飞前，当你舒适地坐好后，让空乘人员把它装满)”可知，这里是建议乘客带上一个大水瓶，并在起飞前装满水。F选项中的“This way, you don’t have to keep asking for refilling throughout the flight (这样，你就不必在整个飞行过程中一直要求加满了)”承接上文，阐述带上大水瓶的好处，符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One day, as usual, Don Powell was pulling envelopes from his large mailbox.

Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries. Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair. But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother’ S love and others’ help. After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet (小号) and joined the school’s band. He served as one of the band’s trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom. As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin. However, there was one obvious problem. Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time. The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches. Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,“ Tom said to their director secretly. From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music. To help Justin, Tom sacrificed (牺牲) far beyond expectation. Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times. All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can’t meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom’s chance. It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home. His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him. 注意: 1.续写司数立カ150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相座位置作答。 He turned around to ask his mother for help. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version He turned around to ask his mother for help. “Mom, could you please push me in the Thanksgiving Day Parade instead of Tom? He gave up his chance of performing to assist me.” Justin looked up at his mother, eagerly awaiting her reply. “Sure, my dear!” Mom bent and kissed his forehead. “I’m happy to join you and witness every moment of your growth.” Justin grinned from ear to ear with the huge load off his mind. With Mom’s participation, the practice went smoothly and joyfully, every member, Justin and Tom included, having a place in the performance and playing their part intently in preparation for the big day. Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. Dressed in the same performing suit, mom pushed Justin proudly with a bright smile on her face as Justin threw himself heart and soul into the performance. Joyful music floating in the air, the mother and son were indeed a perfect match in the parade, which soon became the center of attention. The entire audience broke into thunderous applause, not only for the whole band’s performance, but also for the love between Justin and his mother. Sometimes one person may not walk, but love and assistance can help go anywhere. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了贾斯汀从小得了疾病，必须做轮椅，有一次他想参加感恩节的游行演奏，但是他没办法一边演奏一边控制轮椅，他的朋友汤姆愿意放弃自己演奏的机会来帮助贾斯汀，但是贾斯汀觉得汤姆为自己牺牲太多，最后他请母亲帮他推轮椅，这样最后贾斯汀和汤姆都能参加游行演奏。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他转身向母亲求助。”可知，第一段可描写贾斯汀向母亲求助，请他帮自己推轮椅，母亲欣然答应。 ②由第二段首句内容“感恩节终于来了，贾斯汀和妈妈的表演也来了。”可知，第二段可描写贾斯汀和妈妈的配合很完美，赢得大家的赞美。 2. 续写线索：贾斯汀从小坐轮椅——感恩节游行演奏即将到来——汤姆牺牲自己成全贾斯汀——贾斯汀感到内疚——请求妈妈帮助——完美演出 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：assist/help/support ②放弃：give up/abandon ③见证：witness/see/observe ④变成：become/turn into/develop into 情绪类 ①热切地：eagerly/ardently/fervently ②高兴：happy/glad/pleasant 【点睛】[高分句型1]Dressed in the same performing suit, mom pushed Justin proudly with a bright smile on her face as Justin threw himself heart and soul into the performance.

From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age. “My mother used to tie my left hand and make me eat with my right until a doctor warned that this could significantly affect my growth and confidence,” Maitri says. This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people. Starting The Left Out Store wasn’t in the cards for Maitri for a very long time. The idea for The Left Out Store came to Maitri in just 20 minutes during a festival at St. Joseph’s Institute of Management, where she was a post-graduate student. She presented the rough idea to judges who later became sponsors, and they enthusiastically supported it. This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market. Initially, Maitri faced a few hiccups. It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products. With everything in place, Maitri went through a tough time reaching customers. The first time she made a proper sale was at an exhibition at Lalit Ashok. “People were surprised at first, but gradually more left-handed people began approaching me, and said they relate to my struggles.” Since then, she has been regularly marketing her products at exhibitions, and keeps The Left Out Store active on social media. 24. What challenge did Maitri face as a left-hander while growing up? A. Unfair judgement. B. Lack of parents’ love. C. Limited access to education. D. Struggle with school tools. 25. How did Maitri turn her idea into a reality? A. By seeking student sponsors. B. By conducting market research. C. By expanding the potential market. D. By carrying out her long-thought plan. 26. What does the underlined word “hiccups” probably mean? A. Barriers. B. Threats C. Complaints. D. Oppositions. 27. What might be a suitable title for the passage? A. A Left-Hander’s Struggles B. Maitri’s Marketing Strategies C. Maitri: A Social Media Celebrity D. The Left Out Store: Maitri’s Journey C Should humans kill members of one bird species to help protect another? That’s the question scientists and conservationists are struggling with right now in the Pacific Northwest. In a bid to save northern spotted owls from extinction, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has suggested shooting more than 470,000 barred owls over the next 30 years. The proposal — which is still a draft and will remain open for public comment — has drawn criticism from some wildlife conservationists and highlights the difficulties land managers face while trying to maintain the delicate balance of ecosystems. Spotted owls and barred owls are closely related. But only spotted owls are native to the Pacific Northwest. Barred owls, an alien species, have slowly come to dominate the region over the last century. Their larger size, more generalist nature and faster reproduction rate have prepared them to out compete spotted owls, whose numbers have dropped by roughly 75 percent over the last 20 years, according to the USFWS. Biologists have long wondered how to keep the barred owl population in check. In 2021, scientists published the results of an experiment that involved killing 2,485 barred owls in five study areas. Over five years, spotted owl survival rates increased by an average of 10 percent at the sites. But to truly recover, spotted owls might need more than five years, because they are slow to reproduce. That’s the driving factor behind the agency’s recently proposed long-term management plan. Conservationists have mixed feelings about the plan. While they understand that science may support killing barred owls, they worry about the moral inference of killing off members of one species to save another. Bob Sallinger, executive director of the nonprofit Bird Conservation Oregon, says, “We don’t think it’s moral because they are currently doing better in the existing environment.” He describes it as a no-win situation that humans have created for ourselves. “Rather than choosing to conserve one bird over the other, this is about conserving two species,” says Kessina Lee, supervisor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service office in Oregon. “Spotted owls are fighting for their existence right now. However, even if the service was able to remove that number of barred owls over the next 30 years, that would represent less than 1 percent of the global population of barred owls.” 28. Why is the USFWS proposing the long-term plan? A To do biography research on owls. B. To recover spotted owl’s population. C. To balance the birth rates of two owls. D. To improve spotted owl’s reproductive ability. 29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The relationship between two owls. B. The outcomes caused by alien species. C. The alarming situation of spotted owls. D. The physical advantages of barred owls. 30. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. The agency’s proposal. B. Existing environment. C. Conservationists’ concern. D. The co- existence of two owls. 31. What’s Kessina Lee’s attitude to the plan? A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Favourable. D. Doubtful. D A team decided to perform an experiment inspired by their collective passion for Kung-fu. The group was made up of Michael Feld, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, undergraduates Ronald McNair and Stephen Wilk. They wanted to know: How can a bare hand break a solid block of wood or concrete without injury? What’s the trick? Feld, McNair, and Wilk placed wood and concrete in a machine to determine the amount of stress needed to break the underside of the objects. A wood block can bend by about one centimetre before it breaks, which requires a force of 500 newtons. Concrete blocks only need to be bent one millimeter before breaking, but since the material is hardly bendable, that displacement requires 2,500 to 3,000 newtons. And because some energy is lost upon collision (碰撞), the fist needs to apply even more force than that in order to actually break the blocks. Thankfully, the human hand is capable of generating a very high degree of force in a very short time. The team discovered that within this brief time, “the hand of the Kung-fu master can apply a force of more than 3,000 newtons.” The team’s model indicates that the hand must reach a speed of 6.1 meters per second to break wood and 10.6 meters per second to break concrete. They write, “the former speed is within range of the beginner, but the latter one calls for training.” The obvious follow-up question: “How is it that the hand of the Kung-fu master is not hurt by the force of the strike?” Here, it’s science to the rescue: Human bone is five times firmer than concrete and fifty times harder to break. Of course, it’s technique, not strength, that provides the real power. “The precision to hit the center of the board makes kung-fu not only an excellent physical discipline but also a mental one.” 32. What is the motivation of the team’s experiment? A. To explore the mechanics of barehanded strikes. B To assess durability of different materials. C. To demonstrate their passion for Kung-fu. D. To manage the trick of breaking concrete. 33. What can be inferred about barehanded breaking? A. Bendability is a contributing factor. B. Kung-fu masters can break all objects. C. Concrete bends more before breaking. D. More energy is lost when breaking concrete. 34. What do Kung-fu beginners need to successfully break concrete without injury? A. A hand speed of 6.1 meters per second. B. Excellent academic discipline. C. A large amount of practice. D. The precise measurements. 35. What is the last paragraph mainly talking about concerning the strike? A. Its follow-up experiments. B. Its influence on human bones. C The trick of avoiding bone injury. D. Ways to improve its effectiveness. 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。 If you’ve ever been on a long-haul (长途的) flight, you’ll know that it can be challenging to keep yourself rested and occupied for that many hours, especially if you’re not flying first-class. ____36____.

Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries. Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair. But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother’ S love and others’ help. After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet (小号) and joined the school’s band. He served as one of the band’s trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom. As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin. However, there was one obvious problem. Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time. The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches. Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,“ Tom said to their director secretly. From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music. To help Justin, Tom sacrificed (牺牲) far beyond expectation. Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times. All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can’t meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom’s chance. It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home. His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him. 注意: 1.续写司数立カ150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相座位置作答。 He turned around to ask his mother for help. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
