The sandy beach, which is almost completely exposed at low tide, is a very rich feeding ground, attracting a wide variety of bird species to the area. The visitor centre at the basin has telescopes to help you spot some of the wildlife that visits the area, including ducks, geese, kingfishers, and otters. Staffa The island, which can be reached by a number of boat tours, is a superb spot to grab a photo of puffins during their breeding season. Puffins are by no means the only wildlife to keep an eye out for on any trip to the island. As well as other birds, the nearby sea is also home to dolphins, seals, minke whales and even basking sharks at certain times of the year. Burghead The coastal cliffs (悬崖) of Burghead in Moray are a popular location for a bit of whale spotting. Pilot whales, minke, orca and even the odd humpback can be seen in the waters of the Moray Firth if you are lucky. The cliffs near John O’ Groats in Caithness are another popular spot too. Highland Wildlife Park Located near Kingussie in the Cairngorms National Park, the Highland Wildlife Park may be a large open-air zoo, but it has a wide range of animals, including iconic Highland species like the wildcat, which you will have great difficulty spotting in the wild, the red squirrel and the wolf. The park is also home to a number of more foreign species, from polar bears and tigers to snow leopards and wolverines. 1. What is the main attraction of Montrose Basin? A. Feeding the wild birds. B. Taking pictures of tides. C. Observing migratory birds. D. Enjoying the sandy beach. 2. Which place offers you an opportunity to see non-native animals? A. Montrose Basin. B. Staffa. C. Burghead. D. Highland Wildlife Park. 3. What do the four places have in common? A. They are of similar historical value. B. They provide various facilities for tourists. C. They attract a variety of seabirds to breed there. D. They offer opportunities for wildlife observation. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了观察野生动物的几个地点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Montrose Basin中的“This huge tidal (受潮汐影响的) basin, which sits right next to the town of Montrose in Angus, is a hugely important site for migratory birds (候鸟)(这个巨大的潮汐盆地坐落在安格斯的蒙特罗斯镇旁边，是候鸟的一个非常重要的地方。)”以及“The visitor centre at the basin has telescopes to help you spot some of the wildlife that visits the area, including ducks, geese, kingfishers, and otters.(盆地的游客中心有望远镜，可以帮助你发现一些来到该地区的野生动物，包括鸭子、鹅、翠鸟和水獭。)”可知，蒙特罗斯盆地最吸引人的地方是观察候鸟。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Highland Wildlife Park中的“The park is also home to a number of more foreign species, from polar bears and tigers to snow leopards and wolverines.(该公园也是许多外来物种的家园，从北极熊和老虎到雪豹和狼獾。)”可知，在Highland Wildlife Park.可以看见非本地动物。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据Montrose Basin中的“The visitor centre at the basin has telescopes to help you spot some of the wildlife that visits the area, including ducks, geese, kingfishers, and otters.(盆地的游客中心有望远镜，可以帮助你发现一些来到该地区的野生动物，包括鸭子、鹅、翠鸟和水獭。)”、Staffa中的“The island, which can be reached by a number of boat tours, is a superb spot to grab a photo of puffins during their breeding season.(这个岛可以乘船游览，是在繁殖季节拍摄海雀照片的绝佳地点。)”、Burghead中的“The coastal cliffs (悬崖) of Burghead in Moray are a popular location for a bit of whale spotting.(马里的伯黑德海岸悬崖是观赏鲸鱼的好地方。)”、Highland Wildlife Park中的“The park is also home to a number of more foreign species, from polar bears and tigers to snow leopards and wolverines.(该公园也是许多外来物种的家园，从北极熊和老虎到雪豹和狼獾。)”可知，这四个地方的共同之处在于提供了观察野生动物的机会。故选D项。 B Anand Malligavad, known as the “Lake Man of India”, is very motivating since he has transformed many places and environments in India by conserving them. It is a story of passion, determination, and the importance of personal actions in making a difference. Anand's adventure began at his birthplace of Sirsi, Karnataka, where he saw how pollution and carelessness had led to damage to some nearby ponds. Anand decided to save the dry lakes in his region with perseverance and a sense of duty to which he felt deeply attached. Anand united those who were willing to participate in the volunteer work, and came up with means through which they could remove people’s trash and pollutant wastes along the lake. The news about Anand's activities spread wide, which inspired several people including students, the locals and some high-ranking officials to join his team. Anand's method was comprehensive in that he combined bottom-up activism with inductive (归纳的) reasoning. To fill up aquifers (含水层) that had run dry, he suggested methods of rainwater harvesting. In order to check for any additional sources of pollution at them, he started carrying out sewage (污物) treatment programs at these water bodies. Multiple lakes in the Sirsi region were brought back to life by Anand through his firm dedication and cooperative work, hence changing them into lively ecological systems. These transformed lakes not only provided pure drinking water and irrigation water, but also served as recreation centers and tourist attractions, thereby contributing positively to the economy of the area. Anand didn't stop there. He went on to broaden his conservation activities motivating Indian society to guard the environment in the same way. He has been honored nationally for his accomplishments and has become an influential person, speaking at conferences and interacting with decision-makers about how they can ensure they are acting in a sustainable way while still advocating for environmental protection. 4. What inspired Anand to transform the lakes? A. The harm to local water bodies. B. The development of local tourism. C. The beautiful views of local lakes. D. The local government’s encouragement. 5. How did Anand restore the lakes? A. By planting more trees. B. By collecting rainwater. C. By introducing new species. D. By using chemical treatments. 6. How did Anand’s work influence the local region? A. It boosted the local economy. B. It promoted the local education. C. It led to an increase in agricultural output. D. It attracted a lot of government investment. 7. Which of the following can best describe Anand? A. Patient. B. Generous. C. Dedicated. D. Humble. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。短文介绍了被称为“印度湖人”的阿南德·马利加瓦德治理湖泊的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Anand's adventure began at his birthplace of Sirsi, Karnataka, where he saw how pollution and carelessness had led to damage to some nearby ponds.(阿南德的冒险始于他的出生地卡纳塔克邦的西尔西，在那里他看到了污染和粗心是如何导致附近一些池塘遭到破坏的。)”可知，对当地水体的危害激发了阿南德改造这些湖泊。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“To fill up aquifers (含水层) that had run dry, he suggested methods of rainwater harvesting.(为了填满已经干涸的含水层，他提出了收集雨水的方法。)”可知，阿南德是通过收集雨水恢复湖泊的。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“These transformed lakes not only provided pure drinking water and irrigation water, but also served as recreation centers and tourist attractions, thereby contributing positively to the economy of the area.(这些改造后的湖泊不仅提供了纯净的饮用水和灌溉用水，而且还作为娱乐中心和旅游景点，从而为该地区的经济做出了积极的贡献。)”可知，阿南德的工作促进了当地经济。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Anand decided to save the dry lakes in his region with perseverance and a sense of duty to which he felt deeply attached(阿南德决定拯救他所在地区干涸的湖泊，他坚持不懈，并有一种深深的责任感。)”可知，阿南德具有奉献精神。故选C项。 C Le’ Ann Solmonson, a professional counselor (顾问) in Nacogdoches, Texas , has seen many families fall into a pattern as children reach adolescence: The youth want more autonomy (自主权) and begin to push against their parents’ rules. In response, the parents tighten their control or give punishment, only to have the adolescent push back harder and break more rules, leading to more conflicts. “Adolescents’ goal is to figure out’ Who am I? Where do I fit in?’ and they begin the separation from their parents. Some of that development leads the adolescent to think differently than their parents,” says Solmonson. “These are natural things that can fuel disagreements.” In counseling, Solmonson often asks a teen and his or her parents to name a small conflict they struggle with. She invites the teen to explain his or her perspective (观点) about the disagreement. Then, she encourages the parents to give their perspective and repeat what their child said. Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen’s opinion is wrong. If this happens, Solmonson will remind them that she wants to hear what they think their child's perspective is, not whether it’s right or wrong. She also gives the adolescent the same assignment. The aim, she explains, is to develop understanding between them. Parents often need to work on how they respond to their teens when what they see as a mistake occurs. Instead of responding in anger, she coaches parents to use supportive statements like “That must have been so stressful. How can we prevent that from happening again?” Moreover, Solmonson often stresses to parents that if they want respect during disagreements from their child, they’ll need to show it themselves. If a teen answers disrespectfully, Solmonson coaches parents to respond by saying, “I’m going to give you another chance. Do you need a minute to think about how to say that?” 8. For Solmonson, what’s the cause of parent-adolescent conflicts? A Parental strictness. B. Too frequent arguments. C. Many stressful situations. D. Adolescent development. 9. What is the key to making teens and their parents understand each other better? A. Giving each other strict rules to follow. B. Reducing their worries about conflicts. C. Making them listen to each other’s viewpoints. D. Allowing them to point out each other’s mistakes. 10. How should parents handle disrespectful responses from their teens? A. By respecting their teens first. B. By telling their teens to stop talking. C. By understanding their teens’ moods. D. By analyzing their teens’ responses wisely. 11. What does Solmonson usually focus on in counseling? A. Good qualities developing. B. Negative emotions removing. C. Communication skills building. D. Stress and conflict managing. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了父母与处于青少年时期的孩子发生矛盾的原因和解决措施。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Le’ Ann Solmonson, a professional counselor (顾问) in Nacogdoches, Texas , has seen many families fall into a pattern as children reach adolescence: The youth want more autonomy (自主权) and begin to push against their parents’ rules(德克萨斯州纳科多奇斯（Nacogdoches）的专业咨询师勒安·索尔蒙森（Le’Ann Solmonson）发现，许多家庭在孩子进入青春期后都陷入了一种模式：孩子们想要更多的自主权，开始反抗父母的规定。)”可知，青少年发展导致了亲子冲突。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“She invites the teen to explain his or her perspective (观点) about the disagreement. Then, she encourages the parents to give their perspective and repeat what their child said. Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen's opinion is wrong. If this happens, Solmonson will remind them that she wants to hear what they think their child's perspective is, not whether it's right or wrong. She also gives the adolescent the same assignment. The aim, she explains, is to develop understanding between them.(她邀请青少年解释他或她对分歧的看法（观点）。然后，她鼓励父母给出自己的观点，重复孩子说过的话。通常，父母会立即跳到为什么青少年的观点是错误的。如果发生这种情况，索尔蒙森会提醒他们，她想听的是他们对孩子观点的看法，而不是对或错。她也给了青少年同样的任务。她解释说，这样做的目的是增进他们之间的理解。)”可知，让青少年和他们的父母更好地相互理解的关键是.让他们倾听彼此的观点。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Moreover, Solmonson often stresses to parents that if they want respect during disagreements from their child, they’ll need to show it themselves.(此外，索尔蒙森经常向父母强调，如果他们希望孩子在意见分歧时得到尊重，他们需要自己表现出尊重。)”可知，父母应该首先尊重他们的青少年才能获得孩子的尊重。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Parents often need to work on how they respond to their teens when what they see as a mistake occurs. Instead of responding in anger, she coaches parents to use supportive statements like “That must have been so stressful. How can we prevent that from happening again?”(父母通常需要思考，当他们认为孩子犯了错误时，他们该如何应对。她指导父母不要愤怒地回应，而是使用支持性的话，比如“那一定压力很大。我们怎样才能防止这种情况再次发生呢？)”可知，索尔蒙森通常在咨询中关注沟通技巧的培养。故选C项。 D Many studies have shown a rising trend for greater body and weight dissatisfaction among the youth who are heavy or frequent users of social media. However, these studies are largely correlational (相关性的) rather than causal in nature. Simply put, they did not determine if frequent use of social media created poorer body image among the users, or whether those suffering from body image concerns spent more time on social media. This lack of clarity led my students and me to start a study to better understand the causal effects of social media on body image and mental health. We recruited (招募) a group of Canadian youths aged 17-24 years who were using social media for more than two hours per day and also experiencing higher levels of emotional problems. We tracked their social media use for one week by having them send daily screenshots (屏幕截图) of their usage. These youth spent about two and a half hours per day on social media. During this same period, we also assessed their body image and other mental health measures. Participants were then divided into two groups. The intervention group reduced their daily social media use to one hour per day. The control group continued to have unlimited use of social media. After the three-week intervention period ended, those who reduced daily social media use reported significantly greater improvements in appearance satisfaction and weight satisfaction compared to those who had not reduced their social media use. The results of this study suggest that reducing social media use to more moderate levels – about one hour per day-is a good place to start. Replacing social media use with more mental health- improving activities such as physical activity, time in nature, pursuing hobbies, and spending quality time with friends and family can bring even greater mental benefits. 12. What is the aim of the study conducted by the author? A. To explore how often youths use social media. B. To determine the overall effects of social media on mental health. C. To measure the level of body dissatisfaction among social media users. D. To study whether frequent social media use brings body image dissatisfaction. 13. What is the function of screenshots in the study? A. Showing the time spent on social media. B. Showing the social media platforms used. C. Showing the emotional responses to social media. D. Showing the types of social media content viewed. 14. What is the reported result from the intervention group? A. More attention on physical health. B. Lower appearance satisfaction. C. More concern about emotional problems. D. Higher level of self-satisfaction. 15. What does the author think of social media use according to the last paragraph? A. It should be limited for mental health. B. It has no impact on mental well-being. C. It should be forbidden for physical health. D. It is a common cause of family conflict. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了频繁使用社交媒体是否会带来对身体形象的不满。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Simply put, they did not determine if frequent use of social media created poorer body image among the users, or whether those suffering from body image concerns spent more time on social media. This lack of clarity led my students and me to start a study to better understand the causal effects of social media on body image and mental health.( 简而言之，他们并没有确定频繁使用社交媒体是否会让用户的身体形象更差，或者那些担心身体形象的人是否会花更多的时间在社交媒体上。这种不清晰导致我和我的学生们开始了一项研究，以更好地了解社交媒体对身体形象和心理健康的因果影响)”可知，作者进行这项研究的目的是研究频繁使用社交媒体是否会带来对身体形象的不满。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“We tracked their social media use for one week by having them send daily screenshots (屏幕截图) of their usage. These youth spent about two and a half hours per day on social media.(我们通过让他们每天发送使用社交媒体的截图来跟踪他们一周的社交媒体使用情况。这些年轻人每天花在社交媒体上的时间约为两个半小时)”可知，屏幕截图在研究中的作用显示花在社交媒体上的时间。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“After the three-week intervention period ended, those who reduced daily social media use reported significantly greater improvements in appearance satisfaction and weight satisfaction compared to those who had not reduced their social media use.(在为期三周的干预期结束后，那些减少日常社交媒体使用的人在外表满意度和体重满意度方面的改善明显大于那些没有减少社交媒体使用的人)”可知，干预组报告的结果是更高的自我满意度。故选D项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Replacing social media use with more mental health- improving activities such as physical activity, time in nature, pursuing hobbies, and spending quality time with friends and family can bring even greater mental benefits.(用更多的心理健康活动来取代社交媒体的使用—如体育活动，大自然，追求爱好，与朋友和家人共度美好时光，可以带来更大的心理好处)”可知，处于心理健康的考虑，社交媒体的应用应该被减少。故选A。 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 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。 Confidence is the ability to express your thoughts, feelings, and needs directly and respectfully.

For example, instead of saying, “You never listen to me,” you can say, “I feel unheard when my opinions are refused.” This approach personalizes your feelings and clearly states that you are expressing your own idea, which can reduce defensiveness (防御) and promote a more constructive dialogue. ●Take others into consideration. It is necessary to express your own needs in a dialogue. ____20____. First of all, people are more likely to listen to you and take your idea seriously if they feel valued and understood.

This not only helps you stay calm but also ensures that your message is understood clearly. (练习用平稳、均匀的语调说话，尤其是在压力大的情况下。这不仅可以帮助你保持冷静，还可以确保你的信息被清楚地理解。)”指出说话语调的重要性，C项“避免提高声音或声音过小。”进一步建议避免提高嗓门或声音太小，承上启下，符合语境。故选C项。 【19题详解】 下文“A powerful way to communicate confidently is to use statements that focus on your feelings and experiences without blaming others. For example, instead of saying, “You never listen to me,” you can say, “I feel unheard when my opinions are refused.” This approach personalizes your feelings and clearly states that you are expressing your own idea, which can reduce defensiveness and promote a more constructive dialogue. (自信沟通的一种有力方式是使用专注于你自己的感受和经历的陈述，而不是责备他人。例如，不要说“你从不听我说话”，而是可以说“当我的意见被拒绝时，我感到被忽视”。这种方法使你的感受个性化，并明确表明你在表达自己的想法，这可以减少对方的防御心理，促进更有建设性的对话。)”指出自信沟通要专注于自己的感受，空处作为本段的小标题，应概括本段内容，A项“使用“我”陈述。”直接引出了增强沟通效果的具体方法，符合语境。故选A项。 【20题详解】 上文“·Take others into consideration. It is necessary to express your own needs in a dialogue. (·考虑他人的感受。在对话中表达自己的需求是必要的。)”指出在对话中表达个人需求的重要性，F项“但也要考虑他人的感受和观点。”强调了在沟通中要考虑他人的感受，与上文形成了良好的衔接，与本段小标题相呼应，符合语境。故选F项。 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。 When Miranda Turner graduated from law school in May, she, along with her older brother and sister, had a special surprise for their beloved mom.

Without music, I was shy, very quiet and the type of person that would only talk when asked to. As a little kid, I would hear my parents sing me to sleep and I loved to sing when I grew up. Music allowed me to express myself. It made me happy. There was nothing that could keep me away from my passion, until high school. Every ninth grader who wanted to be in the show choir (歌舞合唱团) (dancing and singing) during high school could audition (试镜) for the program. On the day the audition was held, I waited with the other students. We were called in one by one. It was my turn to enter the room. I walked in. I was a little nervous, and my throat was dry. The room was small with a piano in the middle of it. The singing audition went like this, introduction, a song of our choice and matching a note (调) the director played on the piano. Before I knew it, the audition was over. I hit every note in the song. I took a breath of relief. A week later, there was a dance audition for the show choir. I felt that I had done an amazing job, changing my facial expressions to match the turns. Weeks passed and the list of who had made it into the show choir was posted. “Have you seen the list? I got in!” one of my friends said. “No,” I replied looking at the web page for the results. I moved the page down and found my name. “Angelica H. — alternate (替补)” An alternate? Was my audition that bad? My movements were graceful. Maybe it was the singing. Did I not hit the right notes? I thought to myself. After I saw this, my confidence disappeared. I had no intention of joining the show choir. I was torn from something that I thought made me different from others. A year passed, I realized that it was not smart of me to give up on what I loved. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 I was at a restaurant with my family, which had a karaoke machine. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I realized not getting into the program did not mean that I had to give up all hope. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I was at a restaurant with my family, which had a karaoke machine. My parents encouraged me to go up and sing. I rejected their proposal. At their repeated request, I got enough courage to go up finally. It took me back to the moment when I was auditioning for the show choir in the ninth grade. I chose a song and began to sweat. I started off my song and gained more confidence as I continued. While I hit the high notes the people eating there cheered for me. I determined to sing from that day on. I realized not getting into the program did not mean that I had to give up all hope. I still loved to sing. I still had that passion. The lesson I learned was if you are turned down or do not get the result you want, and it is something you’re in love with, don’t give up. I never did try out for any show choirs again but I knew I had taken back my passion. For the future I know that I won’t always get the result I want but I will continue to work just as hard. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者喜欢音乐，作者在高中时想加入合唱团，在试镜时，作者觉得表现还不错，但是结果没有被合唱团录取，作者很失望。一年过去了，作者意识到放弃自己所热爱的东西是不明智的。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我和家人在一家餐厅，那里有一台卡拉ok机。”可知，第一段可描写作者鼓起勇气上上台唱歌，想起了年级参加合唱团试镜的那一刻以及获得了在场人的喝彩，作者决定唱歌。 ②由第二段首句内容“我意识到没有参加这个项目并不意味着我必须放弃所有的希望。”可知，第二段可描写作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：上台唱歌——想起参加合唱团试镜——获得信息——决定唱歌——学到的教训——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓励：encourage /motivate ②拒绝：reject/refuse ③选择：choose /select ④决定：determine/decide 情绪类 ①热情：passion/enthusiasm 【点睛】[高分句型1] It took me back to the moment when I was auditioning for the show choir in the ninth grade.

The sandy beach, which is almost completely exposed at low tide, is a very rich feeding ground, attracting a wide variety of bird species to the area. The visitor centre at the basin has telescopes to help you spot some of the wildlife that visits the area, including ducks, geese, kingfishers, and otters. Staffa The island, which can be reached by a number of boat tours, is a superb spot to grab a photo of puffins during their breeding season. Puffins are by no means the only wildlife to keep an eye out for on any trip to the island. As well as other birds, the nearby sea is also home to dolphins, seals, minke whales and even basking sharks at certain times of the year. Burghead The coastal cliffs (悬崖) of Burghead in Moray are a popular location for a bit of whale spotting. Pilot whales, minke, orca and even the odd humpback can be seen in the waters of the Moray Firth if you are lucky. The cliffs near John O’ Groats in Caithness are another popular spot too. Highland Wildlife Park Located near Kingussie in the Cairngorms National Park, the Highland Wildlife Park may be a large open-air zoo, but it has a wide range of animals, including iconic Highland species like the wildcat, which you will have great difficulty spotting in the wild, the red squirrel and the wolf. The park is also home to a number of more foreign species, from polar bears and tigers to snow leopards and wolverines. 1. What is the main attraction of Montrose Basin? A. Feeding the wild birds. B. Taking pictures of tides. C. Observing migratory birds. D. Enjoying the sandy beach. 2. Which place offers you an opportunity to see non-native animals? A. Montrose Basin. B. Staffa. C. Burghead. D. Highland Wildlife Park. 3. What do the four places have in common? A. They are of similar historical value. B. They provide various facilities for tourists. C. They attract a variety of seabirds to breed there. D. They offer opportunities for wildlife observation. B Anand Malligavad, known as the “Lake Man of India”, is very motivating since he has transformed many places and environments in India by conserving them. It is a story of passion, determination, and the importance of personal actions in making a difference. Anand's adventure began at his birthplace of Sirsi, Karnataka, where he saw how pollution and carelessness had led to damage to some nearby ponds. Anand decided to save the dry lakes in his region with perseverance and a sense of duty to which he felt deeply attached. Anand united those who were willing to participate in the volunteer work, and came up with means through which they could remove people’s trash and pollutant wastes along the lake. The news about Anand's activities spread wide, which inspired several people including students, the locals and some high-ranking officials to join his team. Anand's method was comprehensive in that he combined bottom-up activism with inductive (归纳的) reasoning. To fill up aquifers (含水层) that had run dry, he suggested methods of rainwater harvesting. In order to check for any additional sources of pollution at them, he started carrying out sewage (污物) treatment programs at these water bodies. Multiple lakes in the Sirsi region were brought back to life by Anand through his firm dedication and cooperative work, hence changing them into lively ecological systems. These transformed lakes not only provided pure drinking water and irrigation water, but also served as recreation centers and tourist attractions, thereby contributing positively to the economy of the area. Anand didn't stop there. He went on to broaden his conservation activities, motivating Indian society to guard the environment in the same way. He has been honored nationally for his accomplishments and has become an influential person, speaking at conferences and interacting with decision-makers about how they can ensure they are acting in a sustainable way while still advocating for environmental protection. 4. What inspired Anand to transform the lakes? A. The harm to local water bodies. B. The development of local tourism. C. The beautiful views of local lakes. D. The local government’s encouragement. 5. How did Anand restore the lakes? A. By planting more trees. B. By collecting rainwater. C. By introducing new species. D. By using chemical treatments. 6. How did Anand’s work influence the local region? A. It boosted the local economy. B. It promoted the local education. C. It led to an increase in agricultural output. D. It attracted a lot of government investment. 7. Which of the following can best describe Anand? A. Patient. B. Generous. C. Dedicated. D. Humble. C Le’ Ann Solmonson, a professional counselor (顾问) in Nacogdoches, Texas , has seen many families fall into a pattern as children reach adolescence: The youth want more autonomy (自主权) and begin to push against their parents’ rules. In response, the parents tighten their control or give punishment, only to have the adolescent push back harder and break more rules, leading to more conflicts. “Adolescents’ goal is to figure out’ Who am I? Where do I fit in?’ and they begin the separation from their parents. Some of that development leads the adolescent to think differently than their parents,” says Solmonson. “These are natural things that can fuel disagreements.” In counseling, Solmonson often asks a teen and his or her parents to name a small conflict they struggle with. She invites the teen to explain his or her perspective (观点) about the disagreement. Then, she encourages the parents to give their perspective and repeat what their child said. Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen’s opinion is wrong. If this happens, Solmonson will remind them that she wants to hear what they think their child's perspective is, not whether it’s right or wrong. She also gives the adolescent the same assignment. The aim, she explains, is to develop understanding between them. Parents often need to work on how they respond to their teens when what they see as a mistake occurs. Instead of responding in anger, she coaches parents to use supportive statements like “That must have been so stressful. How can we prevent that from happening again?” Moreover, Solmonson often stresses to parents that if they want respect during disagreements from their child, they’ll need to show it themselves. If a teen answers disrespectfully, Solmonson coaches parents to respond by saying, “I’m going to give you another chance. Do you need a minute to think about how to say that?” 8. For Solmonson, what’s the cause of parent-adolescent conflicts? A. Parental strictness. B. Too frequent arguments. C. Many stressful situations. D. Adolescent development. 9. What is the key to making teens and their parents understand each other better? A. Giving each other strict rules to follow. B. Reducing their worries about conflicts. C. Making them listen to each other’s viewpoints. D. Allowing them to point out each other’s mistakes. 10. How should parents handle disrespectful responses from their teens? A. By respecting their teens first. B. By telling their teens to stop talking. C. By understanding their teens’ moods. D. By analyzing their teens’ responses wisely. 11. What does Solmonson usually focus on in counseling? A. Good qualities developing. B. Negative emotions removing. C. Communication skills building. D. Stress and conflict managing. D Many studies have shown a rising trend for greater body and weight dissatisfaction among the youth who are heavy or frequent users of social media. However, these studies are largely correlational (相关性的) rather than causal in nature. Simply put, they did not determine if frequent use of social media created poorer body image among the users, or whether those suffering from body image concerns spent more time on social media. This lack of clarity led my students and me to start a study to better understand the causal effects of social media on body image and mental health. We recruited (招募) a group of Canadian youths aged 17-24 years who were using social media for more than two hours per day and also experiencing higher levels of emotional problems. We tracked their social media use for one week by having them send daily screenshots (屏幕截图) of their usage. These youth spent about two and a half hours per day on social media. During this same period, we also assessed their body image and other mental health measures. Participants were then divided into two groups. The intervention group reduced their daily social media use to one hour per day. The control group continued to have unlimited use of social media. After the three-week intervention period ended, those who reduced daily social media use reported significantly greater improvements in appearance satisfaction and weight satisfaction compared to those who had not reduced their social media use. The results of this study suggest that reducing social media use to more moderate levels – about one hour per day-is a good place to start. Replacing social media use with more mental health- improving activities such as physical activity, time in nature, pursuing hobbies, and spending quality time with friends and family can bring even greater mental benefits. 12. What is the aim of the study conducted by the author? A. To explore how often youths use social media. B. To determine the overall effects of social media on mental health. C. To measure the level of body dissatisfaction among social media users. D. To study whether frequent social media use brings body image dissatisfaction. 13. What is the function of screenshots in the study? A. Showing the time spent on social media. B. Showing the social media platforms used. C. Showing the emotional responses to social media. D. Showing the types of social media content viewed. 14. What is the reported result from the intervention group? A More attention on physical health. B. Lower appearance satisfaction. C.

Without music, I was shy, very quiet and the type of person that would only talk when asked to. As a little kid, I would hear my parents sing me to sleep and I loved to sing when I grew up. Music allowed me to express myself. It made me happy. There was nothing that could keep me away from my passion, until high school. Every ninth grader who wanted to be in the show choir (歌舞合唱团) (dancing and singing) during high school could audition (试镜) for the program. On the day the audition was held, I waited with the other students. We were called in one by one. It was my turn to enter the room. I walked in. I was a little nervous, and my throat was dry. The room was small with a piano in the middle of it. The singing audition went like this, introduction, a song of our choice and matching a note (调) the director played on the piano. Before I knew it, the audition was over. I hit every note in the song. I took a breath of relief. A week later, there was a dance audition for the show choir. I felt that I had done an amazing job, changing my facial expressions to match the turns. Weeks passed and the list of who had made it into the show choir was posted. “Have you seen the list? I got in!” one of my friends said. “No,” I replied looking at the web page for the results. I moved the page down and found my name. “Angelica H. — alternate (替补)” An alternate? Was my audition that bad? My movements were graceful. Maybe it was the singing. Did I not hit the right notes? I thought to myself. After I saw this, my confidence disappeared. I had no intention of joining the show choir. I was torn from something that I thought made me different from others. A year passed I realized that it was not smart of me to give up on what I loved. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 I was at a restaurant with my family, which had a karaoke machine. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I realized not getting into the program did not mean that I had to give up all hope. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1—5 CBBCC 6—10 BACBB 11—15 BCABC 16—20 CACAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
