Here are four starting points to launch your own travel plan. Dodecanese Islands, Greece Waves of conquerors-Romans, Ottomans, Italians-left their fingerprints on everything from the architecture to the food on these Greek islands. Today’s invaders come not for fortune but for selfies (自拍). Now less visited parts of the isles, like Karpathos, hope to balance the economic need for tourism with the environmental stresses caused by it. Tuli Block, Botswana Travelers to Botswana have become more interested in seeing more craft-based tours and village homestays since COVID. A National Geographic explorer Mookod, is establishing an education program in 10 remote villages, which shows the village teachers how to weave the environment and local culture into their lessons. Louangphabang, Laos The pandemic closed the borders of many tourism-dependent countries like Laos. But the Southeast Asian nation hopes the Chinese-constructed bullet train will boost domestic travel. Its 260-mile route within Laos starts at the border town of Boten, crosses more than 70 tunnels and 160 bridges, runs through Louangphabang, and ends in the capital, Vientiane. Choquequirao, Peru Choquequirao is one of the most remote Inca sites in the Peruvian Andes. Numerous temples, terraces (梯田), and squares are yet to be fully unearthed. But new infrastructure plans are expected to boost visits to Machu Picchu’s sister city. 1. What would travelers like to do most on Dodecanese Islands? A. Admire ancient buildings. B. Enjoy tasty food. C. Make a fortune. D. Take beautiful photos. 2. Which travel destination best suits people who prefer railway journeys? A. Dodecanese Islands. B. Tuli Block. C. Louangphabang. D. Choquequirao. 3. What do Tuli Block and Choquequirao have in common? A. They both have a sister city. B. They both have an education program. C. They both offer experiences in rural areas. D. They both offer accommodation in local families. B Africa-bound! And only seven hours left of a 19-hour flight before I would arrive in South Africa for my third volunteer trip in three years. But this time it was different. I’d be there alone for a whole year, without friends or family. Plus, I had one challenge other volunteers fighting AIDS in Africa didn’t have — I was in a wheelchair. At eight years old, I was paralyzed (瘫痪的) from the waist down in a car accident. I spent months in a hospital, learning how to use a wheelchair, how to get up from the floor and how to dress myself. Basically how to live my life as independently as possible. After graduation from college, I made a year- long commitment to Lily of the Valley Children’s Village, outside Mophela, South Africa, where 90 percent of the children are infected with HIV. I would see to the kids’ medical needs and teach math and English. Those first few weeks were hard, harder than anything I had done before. I forced myself to keep trying. I needed to prove myself. But how could I tell if I was doing any good? One night, a big storm hit. I rolled out of my cottage the next morning and my chair lurched (突然倾斜), the wheels sinking into mud. I grasped the wheels tight and pushed hard. The chair wouldn’t move. All of my worst worries seemed to be coming true. I was stuck, hopelessly stuck. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw children running toward me. Two of the oldest grabbed the handlebars and the others pushed me forward.The wheels came free. The kids shouted with delight. When I said “Thank you!”, they laughed, “You help us. We help you.” That echoed in my ears all day. The next morning, the kids were waiting to push me through the mud to homework club. And the day after that, it became our little routine. The more they helped me, the easier it got to help them. The kids and I bonded. I wasn’t alone during my year in Africa. Not at all. I had reached out to the people I was assisting, and they, in turn, became my support. I was aware, more than ever, that anyone, even in a wheelchair, can make a difference. 4. What was the author’s unique challenge during this volunteer experience? A. Overcoming physical limitations. B. Adapting to a new cultural environment. C. Managing a long-term solo commitment. D. Dealing with the harsh weather conditions. 5. How did the author feel in the first few weeks in South Africa? A. Disappointed and wanting to give up. B. Satisfied with the progress made. C. Uncertain about the effectiveness of his help. D. Frustrated by the children’s lack of cooperation. 6. What was the turning point in the author’s relationship with the children? A. The children’s voluntary assistance. B. The author’s initial arrival in the village. C. The author’s first teaching session. D. The author’s struggle with the wheelchair. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The struggle of adapting to a new environment. B. The transformative power of mutual support. C. The challenges of living with a physical disability. D. The impact of education on poor children. C The concepts of delayed satisfaction, self-control, and self-regulation are often used interchangeably and inconsistently. The ability to delay an impulse (冲动) for an immediate reward to receive a more favorable reward at a later time is the standard definition of delayed satisfaction. Studies show that delayed satisfaction is one of the most effective personal characteristics of successful people. People who learn how to manage their need to be satisfied in the moment develop more in their careers, relationships, health, and finances than people who give in to it. Being able to delay satisfaction isn’t the easiest skill to acquire. It involves feeling dissatisfied, which is why it seems impossible for people who haven’t learned to control their impulses. Choosing to have something now might feel good, but making the effort to have discipline and manage your impulses can result in bigger or better rewards in the future. Over time, delayed satisfaction will improve your self-control and ultimately help you achieve your long-term goals faster. The Seinfeld Strategy is one of several helpful self-satisfaction techniques you can use to put off satisfaction for longer periods of time. Every day that you delay satisfaction and avoid temptation (诱惑) , you cross it off your calendar. After a few days, this creates a chain. This strategy works well for people who enjoy gamification (游戏化). If you find it satisfying to keep the chain going, you’re less likely to give in to temptation. Do you find yourself going back to your temptations without thinking about it?If this is the case, you can practice mindfulness to become more aware of what you do. When you notice yourself doing something out of habit, stop for a moment. Ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing. Take some time to analyze how you’re feeling. Pay attention to the details. Take a moment of mindulness to interrupt your autopilot every time this happens. The more you practice this, the more you’ll break the habit of going for instant satisfaction. 8. What is delayed satisfaction? A. Making quick decisions. B. Giving in to desires instantly. C. Immediate rewards for impulses. D. Postponing rewards for better outcomes. 9. Why is delayed satisfaction hard to attain? A. It can lead to missed opportunities B. It’s bad for achieving long-term goals. C. It’s impossible to resist the inner needs D. It’s a comfort to possess something at once. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The complexity of the Seinfeld Strategy B. An example of self-discipline techniques. C. A method of practicing delayed satisfaction. D. The effectiveness of keeping the chain going. 11. What does the author suggest people do for returning temptations? A. Ignore useless details. B. Get rid of old bad habits. C. Concentrate on true inner wants. D. Cancel temptations from the calendar. D It seems obvious that forests would provide better habitat for forest- living wildlife than farms. Yet, in one of the longest- running studies of tropical wildlife populations in the world, Stanford researchers found that over 18 years, smaller farms with varying crop types-mixed with patches or ribbons of forest — sustain many forest- dependent bird populations in Costa Rica, even as populations decline in forests. In a paper published on Sept.4 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Nicholas Hendershot and colleagues compared trends in specific bird populations across three landscape types in Costa Rica: forests, diversified farms, and intensive agriculture. The steepest declines were found in forests, then in intensive agriculture and the species succeeding in intensive agriculture were often invasive (侵入的). But on diversified farms, a significant subset of bird species typically found in forests, including some of conservation concern, actually increased over time. While this research implies that diversified farming could be key for biodiversity, the relationship goes both ways: biodiversity is key for food security. In this case, that means having a variety of types of birds feeding on insects and helping to pollinate (对……授粉) crops. “Identity does seem to matter a lot for pest control and other ecosystem services birds provide. These species are not interchangeable,” said Hendershot. It has become increasingly apparent around the world that while protected areas remain critical, they are too few and far between to provide the ecosystem services people and nature need to boom. Working landscapes are crucial now for preserving biodiversity and its benefits. “People, including scientists, had the idea that farmland would not support a meaningful amount of biodiversity,” said Gretchen Daily. In this case, not only are diversified farms themselves providing habitat, they connect otherwise fragmented forested areas. “We believe the findings of our research are new to science, but in a sense, it merely confirms what indigenous (土著的) communities around the world have already known for a long time, which is that humans can and should have mutually (相互地) beneficial relationships with the rest of the local ecological community they are part of,” said Tadashi Fukami, a professor of biology in H&S and of Earth system science in the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability and a co- author of the paper. 12. What is known from the Stanford study about bird populations in Costa Rica? A. Diversified farms support forest bird species. B. Forests are the best habitat for all bird species. C. Intensive farms have no impact on bird populations. D. Bird species increase only in undisturbed forests. 13. What is the core message conveyed in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4? A. Diversified farms enhance bird diversity. B. Food security depends on crop pollination. C. Bird diversity is crucial for food security. D. Pest control doesn’t require diverse bird species. 14. What can the underlined word “fragmented” in paragraph 5 be replaced by? A. Separated. B. Enriched. C. Expanded. D. Transformed. 15. What does Tadashi Fukami say about the research findings? A. Indigenous wisdom is not needed for new science. B. The research is a proof of indigenous knowledge. C. New findings challenge traditional ecological views. D. The study reveals humans are superior to nature. 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。 Establishing healthy boundaries with yourself will help you stay within your range of control and prioritize what matters most.

One day, an old woman got on the bus with an anxious look on her face. She fished in her pocket but failed to take anything out. She explained something to the driver in a low voice, and then the driver signed to her to take a seat. Right behind me, I heard a man's whisper,“ Why didn't she pay for her fare(车费)?”A woman responded,“ Maybe she always expects a free ride, and she gets it.” I heard all those words and it was only then that I noticed the sign saying what wasn't allowed on the bus. No free rides. No spitting. No playing music. I glanced around my seat, and saw the woman duck her head down. Her face turned red with embarrassment as she attempted to avoid making eye contact with anyone. It remained unknown why she didn't pay, but I felt sorry for her. I reached deep into my schoolbag for the wallet that contained the change I had earned from housework and returning bottles and wastepaper to the recycling center. I rose from my seat, came to the front and put a shiny coin into the fa re box. I whispered to the driver,“ For the lady,” my heart filled with pride. The driver gave me an approving smile. And then the machine beeped (哔哔声), saying an adult's fare had been paid. I saw a relaxed smile spreading across her face. Two weeks later, it was raining fit to drown the town. After school, I dashed out of the school gate and hurried to the bus stop. By the time the bus pulled up, I was wet through. I caught sight of the familiar face of the driver when I stood at the fare box. I dug in my schoolbag for the wallet. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 But I was at a loss when I opened it. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was about to get off when the driver stopped me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 泉州科技中学2024-2025学年度 第一学期高三年期中试卷英语试卷 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个登上了年度榜单的旅游目的地。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Dodecanese Islands, Greece部分中“Today’s invaders come not for fortune but for selfies (自拍).(今天来的旅游者不是为了财富，而是为了自拍)”可知，游客到多德卡尼斯群岛最喜欢的是拍照，故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Louangphabang, Laos部分的“But the Southeast Asian nation hopes the Chinese-constructed bullet train will boost domestic travel. Its 260-mile route within Laos starts at the border town of Boten, crosses more than 70 tunnels and 160 bridges, runs through Louangphabang, and ends in the capital, Vientiane.(但这个东南亚国家希望中国建造的子弹头列车能促进国内旅行。其在老挝境内的260英里路线始于边境城镇磨丁，穿过70多条隧道和160多座桥梁，穿过琅勃拉邦，终点为首都万象)”可知，琅勃拉邦省最适合乘坐火车旅行的人，故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Tuli Block部分的“A National Geographic explorer, Mookod, is establishing an education program in 10 remote villages, which shows the village teachers how to weave the environment and local culture into their lessons.(国家地理探险家穆克德正在10个偏远村庄建立一个教育项目，向乡村教师展示如何将环境和当地文化融入他们的课程)”以及Choquequirao部分的“Choquequirao is one of the most remote Inca sites in the Peruvian Andes. Numerous temples, terraces (梯田), and squares are yet to be fully unearthed.(乔奎拉奥是秘鲁安第斯山脉中最偏远的印加遗址之一。许多寺庙、梯田和广场尚未完全出土)”可知，Tuli Block 和Choquequirao两个地区的共同之处是能给游客提供乡村旅行的体验，故选C项。 B Africa-bound! And only seven hours left of a 19-hour flight before I would arrive in South Africa for my third volunteer trip in three years. But this time it was different. I’d be there alone for a whole year, without friends or family. Plus, I had one challenge other volunteers fighting AIDS in Africa didn’t have — I was in a wheelchair. At eight years old, I was paralyzed (瘫痪的) from the waist down in a car accident. I spent months in a hospital, learning how to use a wheelchair, how to get up from the floor and how to dress myself. Basically how to live my life as independently as possible. After graduation from college, I made a year- long commitment to Lily of the Valley Children’s Village, outside Mophela, South Africa, where 90 percent of the children are infected with HIV. I would see to the kids’ medical needs and teach math and English. Those first few weeks were hard, harder than anything I had done before. I forced myself to keep trying. I needed to prove myself. But how could I tell if I was doing any good? One night, a big storm hit. I rolled out of my cottage the next morning and my chair lurched (突然倾斜), the wheels sinking into mud. I grasped the wheels tight and pushed hard. The chair wouldn’t move. All of my worst worries seemed to be coming true. I was stuck, hopelessly stuck. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw children running toward me. Two of the oldest grabbed the handlebars and the others pushed me forward.The wheels came free. The kids shouted with delight. When I said “Thank you!”, they laughed, “You help us. We help you.” That echoed in my ears all day. The next morning, the kids were waiting to push me through the mud to homework club. And the day after that, it became our little routine. The more they helped me, the easier it got to help them. The kids and I bonded. I wasn’t alone during my year in Africa. Not at all. I had reached out to the people I was assisting, and they, in turn, became my support. I was aware, more than ever, that anyone, even in a wheelchair, can make a difference. 4. What was the author’s unique challenge during this volunteer experience? A. Overcoming physical limitations. B. Adapting to a new cultural environment. C. Managing a long-term solo commitment. D. Dealing with the harsh weather conditions. 5. How did the author feel in the first few weeks in South Africa? A. Disappointed and wanting to give up. B. Satisfied with the progress made. C. Uncertain about the effectiveness of his help. D. Frustrated by the children’s lack of cooperation. 6. What was the turning point in the author’s relationship with the children? A. The children’s voluntary assistance. B. The author’s initial arrival in the village. C. The author’s first teaching session. D. The author’s struggle with the wheelchair. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The struggle of adapting to a new environment. B. The transformative power of mutual support. C. The challenges of living with a physical disability. D. The impact of education on poor children. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述的是作者虽然身有残疾，需要坐轮椅，但是在南非的志愿服务中通过与孩子们的互助，实现了自我价值并深刻体会到了人与人之间相互支持的力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Plus, I had one challenge other volunteers fighting AIDS in Africa didn’t have — I was in a wheelchair. (此外，我还有一个其他在非洲抗击艾滋病的志愿者没有的挑战——我坐在轮椅上)”可知，作者在南非的志愿者经历中，特殊的挑战是他的身体残疾，这与其他人相比是一个独特的挑战，需要克服身体局限性。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Those first few weeks were hard, harder than anything I had done before. I forced myself to keep trying. I needed to prove myself. But how could I tell if I was doing any good? (最初的几个星期非常艰难，比我以前做过的任何事情都要艰难。我强迫自己继续尝试。我需要证明自己。但我怎么知道自己做得好不好呢?)”可知，作者在南非的最初几周非常艰难，他强迫自己继续试，并且想知道自己是否真的做得好，这表明他不确定自己的帮助是否有效果。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Out of the corner of my eye, I saw children running toward me. Two of the oldest grabbed the handlebars and the others pushed me forward. (我从眼角看到孩子们向我跑来。两个年纪最大的抓住车把，其他人推着我往前走)”和第八段的“That echoed in my ears all day.(那些话在我耳边回响了一整天。)”以及最后一段的“And the day after that, it became our little routine. The more they helped me, the easier it got to help them. The kids and I bonded. I wasn’t alone during my year in Africa.( 第二天，这就成了我们的日常。他们帮我越多，我就越容易帮到他们。孩子们和我很亲密。我在非洲的那一年并不孤单。)”可知，孩子们自发的帮助是作者与南非孩子们关系转变的关键时刻。作者的轮椅陷入泥潭，孩子们跑来帮助他时，他们之间的关系开始有了质的变化。孩子们的行动不仅帮助作者摆脱了困境，也象征着他们之间互助的开始。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The more they helped me, the easier it got to help them. The kids and I bonded. I wasn’t alone during my year in Africa. Not at all. I had reached out to the people I was assisting, and they, in turn, became my support. I was aware, more than ever, that anyone, even in a wheelchair, can make a difference. (他们帮我越多，我就越容易帮到他们。孩子们和我很亲密。我在非洲的那一年并不孤单。一点也不。我主动联系了我正在帮助的人，而他们反过来又成为了我的支持。我比以往任何时候都更加意识到，任何人，即使是坐在轮椅上，都可以带来改变)”可知，这篇文章的中心主题是互助的变革力量。作者通过自己的经历展示了即使在面临身体障碍和孤立无援的情况下，通过与他人的相互支持，也能实现个人成长和共同发展。故选B。 C The concepts of delayed satisfaction, self-control, and self-regulation are often used interchangeably and inconsistently. The ability to delay an impulse (冲动) for an immediate reward to receive a more favorable reward at a later time is the standard definition of delayed satisfaction. Studies show that delayed satisfaction is one of the most effective personal characteristics of successful people. People who learn how to manage their need to be satisfied in the moment develop more in their careers, relationships, health, and finances than people who give in to it. Being able to delay satisfaction isn’t the easiest skill to acquire. It involves feeling dissatisfied, which is why it seems impossible for people who haven’t learned to control their impulses. Choosing to have something now might feel good, but making the effort to have discipline and manage your impulses can result in bigger or better rewards in the future. Over time, delayed satisfaction will improve your self-control and ultimately help you achieve your long-term goals faster. The Seinfeld Strategy is one of several helpful self-satisfaction techniques you can use to put off satisfaction for longer periods of time. Every day that you delay satisfaction and avoid temptation (诱惑) , you cross it off your calendar. After a few days, this creates a chain. This strategy works well for people who enjoy gamification (游戏化). If you find it satisfying to keep the chain going, you’re less likely to give in to temptation. Do you find yourself going back to your temptations without thinking about it?If this is the case, you can practice mindfulness to become more aware of what you do. When you notice yourself doing something out of habit, stop for a moment. Ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing. Take some time to analyze how you’re feeling. Pay attention to the details. Take a moment of mindulness to interrupt your autopilot every time this happens. The more you practice this, the more you’ll break the habit of going for instant satisfaction. 8. What is delayed satisfaction? A. Making quick decisions. B. Giving in to desires instantly. C. Immediate rewards for impulses. D. Postponing rewards for better outcomes. 9. Why is delayed satisfaction hard to attain? A. It can lead to missed opportunities B. It’s bad for achieving long-term goals. C. It’s impossible to resist the inner needs D. It’s a comfort to possess something at once. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The complexity of the Seinfeld Strategy B. An example of self-discipline techniques. C. A method of practicing delayed satisfaction. D. The effectiveness of keeping the chain going. 11. What does the author suggest people do for returning temptations? A. Ignore useless details. B. Get rid of old bad habits. C. Concentrate on true inner wants. D. Cancel temptations from the calendar. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了延迟满足的重要性以及如何练习延迟满。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“ The ability to delay an impulse (冲动) for an immediate reward to receive a more favorable reward at a later time is the standard definition of delayed satisfaction.(延迟满足的标准定义是延迟立即获得奖励的冲动，以便稍后获得更有利的奖励的能力。)”可知延迟满足是推迟奖励以获得更好的结果。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Being able to delay satisfaction isn’t the easiest skill to acquire. It involves feeling dissatisfied, which is why it seems impossible for people who haven’t learned to control their impulses. Choosing to have something now might feel good, but making the effort to have discipline and manage your impulses can result in bigger or better rewards in the future.(能够延迟满足并不是最容易获得的技能。它涉及到不满意的感觉，这就是为什么对于那些还没有学会控制自己的冲动的人来说似乎是不可能的。选择现在拥有某些东西可能会感觉很好，但努力遵守纪律并控制自己的冲动可能会在未来带来更大或更好的回报。)”可知，延迟满足很难获得是因为选择现在拥有某些东西可能会感觉很好，是舒适的，故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The Seinfeld Strategy is one of several helpful self-satisfaction techniques you can use to put off satisfaction for longer periods of time. Every day that you delay satisfaction and avoid temptation ( 诱惑) , you cross it off your calendar. After a few days, this creates a chain. This strategy works well for people who enjoy gamification (游戏化). If you find it satisfying to keep the chain going, you’re less likely to give in to temptation.(《宋飞传》策略是几种有用的自我满足技巧之一，你可以用它来推迟更长时间的满足感。每一天你推迟满足感并避免诱惑，你就会把它从你的日历上划掉。几天后，这就形成了一条链。这种策略对于喜欢游戏化的人来说很有效。如果你发现维持链条运转很令人满意，你就不太可能屈服于诱惑。)”可知，第四段主要讲述了一种练习延迟满足的方法。故选C。 11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Do you find yourself going back to your temptations without thinking about it?If this is the case, you can practice mindfulness to become more aware of what you do.  When you notice yourself doing something out of habit, stop for a moment. Ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing. Take some time to analyze how you’re feeling. Pay attention to the details. Take a moment of mindulness to interrupt your autopilot every time this happens.(您是否发现自己不假思索地又回到了诱惑之中？如果是这种情况，您可以练习正念以更加了解自己所做的事情。当你发现自己在做一些不习惯的事情时，停下来一会儿。问问自己为什么要做你正在做的事情。花一些时间来分析您的感受。注意细节。每次发生这种情况时，花点时间保持正念，打断你的自动驾驶)”可知，作者建议人们练习正念来抵御诱惑，即问自己为什么要做正在做的事，分析自己的感受，由此可推知，作者建议人们专注于真正的内心需求以此来抵御诱惑，故选C。 D It seems obvious that forests would provide better habitat for forest- living wildlife than farms. Yet, in one of the longest- running studies of tropical wildlife populations in the world, Stanford researchers found that over 18 years, smaller farms with varying crop types-mixed with patches or ribbons of forest — sustain many forest- dependent bird populations in Costa Rica, even as populations decline in forests. In a paper published on Sept.4 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Nicholas Hendershot and colleagues compared trends in specific bird populations across three landscape types in Costa Rica: forests, diversified farms, and intensive agriculture. The steepest declines were found in forests, then in intensive agriculture and the species succeeding in intensive agriculture were often invasive (侵入的). But on diversified farms, a significant subset of bird species typically found in forests, including some of conservation concern, actually increased over time. While this research implies that diversified farming could be key for biodiversity, the relationship goes both ways: biodiversity is key for food security. In this case, that means having a variety of types of birds feeding on insects and helping to pollinate (对……授粉) crops. “Identity does seem to matter a lot for pest control and other ecosystem services birds provide. These species are not interchangeable,” said Hendershot. It has become increasingly apparent around the world that while protected areas remain critical, they are too few and far between to provide the ecosystem services people and nature need to boom. Working landscapes are crucial now for preserving biodiversity and its benefits. “People, including scientists, had the idea that farmland would not support a meaningful amount of biodiversity,” said Gretchen Daily. In this case, not only are diversified farms themselves providing habitat, they connect otherwise fragmented forested areas. “We believe the findings of our research are new to science, but in a sense, it merely confirms what indigenous (土著的) communities around the world have already known for a long time, which is that humans can and should have mutually (相互地) beneficial relationships with the rest of the local ecological community they are part of,” said Tadashi Fukami, a professor of biology in H&S and of Earth system science in the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability and a co- author of the paper. 12. What is known from the Stanford study about bird populations in Costa Rica? A. Diversified farms support forest bird species. B. Forests are the best habitat for all bird species. C. Intensive farms have no impact on bird populations. D. Bird species increase only in undisturbed forests. 13. What is the core message conveyed in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4? A. Diversified farms enhance bird diversity. B. Food security depends on crop pollination. C. Bird diversity is crucial for food security. D. Pest control doesn’t require diverse bird species. 14. What can the underlined word “fragmented” in paragraph 5 be replaced by? A. Separated. B. Enriched. C. Expanded. D. Transformed. 15. What does Tadashi Fukami say about the research findings? A. Indigenous wisdom is not needed for new science. B. The research is a proof of indigenous knowledge. C. New findings challenge traditional ecological views. D. The study reveals humans are superior to nature. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了斯坦福大学的研究发现——多样化农场与鸟类种群数量的关系。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Yet, in one of the longest- running studies of tropical wildlife populations in the world, Stanford researchers found that over 18 years, smaller farms with varying crop types - mixed with patches or ribbons of forest — sustain many forest- dependent bird populations in Costa Rica, even as populations decline in forests.(然而，在世界上持续时间最长的热带野生动物种群研究之一中，斯坦福大学的研究人员发现，在18年多的时间里，尽管森林中的鸟类种群数量减少，但种植不同作物类型的小型农场——与成片或成带的森林混合在一起——维持着哥斯达黎加许多依赖森林的鸟类种群)”可知，斯坦福大学关于哥斯达黎加鸟类种群的研究表明种植不同作物类型的小型农场维持着许多依赖森林的鸟类种群，即多样化的农场支持森林鸟类。故选A。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“While this research implies that diversified farming could be key for biodiversity, the relationship goes both ways: biodiversity is key for food security. In this case, that means having a variety of types of birds feeding on insects and helping to pollinate crops.(虽然这项研究表明，多样化的农业可能是生物多样性的关键，但这种关系是双向的：生物多样性是粮食安全的关键。这意味着有各种类型的鸟类捕食昆虫并帮助授粉作物。)”以及第四段““Identity does seem to matter a lot for pest control and other ecosystem services birds provide. These species are not interchangeable,” said Hendershot.(亨德森肖特说：“身份似乎对害虫控制和鸟类提供的其他生态系统服务非常重要。这些物种是不可互换的。”)”可知，生物多样性与粮食安全之间存在着相互关系，这意味着有各种类型的鸟类捕食昆虫并帮助授粉作物，鸟类在害虫控制和其他生态系统服务中非常重要，即鸟类多样性对粮食安全至关重要。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“Working landscapes are crucial now for preserving biodiversity and its benefits. “People, including scientists, had the idea that farmland would not support a meaningful amount of biodiversity,” said Gretchen Daily. In this case, not only are diversified farms themselves providing habitat, they connect otherwise fragmented forested areas.(现在，工作景观对于保护生物多样性及其益处至关重要。《格雷琴日报》说：“人们，包括科学家，都认为农田不会支持大量的生物多样性。”。在这种情况下，多样化的农场不仅本身提供了栖息地，还连接了否则会fragmented森林地区)”可知，划线词汇描述森林区域被分割成小块，不再连续，推测划线单词表示“破碎的，分离的”，与Separated意义相近。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““We believe the findings of our research are new to science, but in a sense, it merely confirms what indigenous communities around the world have already known for a long time, which is that humans can and should have mutually beneficial relationships with the rest of the local ecological community they are part of,” said Tadashi Fukami, a professor of biology in H&S and of Earth system science in the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability and a co- author of the paper.(“我们相信我们的研究结果对科学来说是新的，但从某种意义上说，它只是证实了世界各地的土著社区长期以来已经知道的事情，即人类可以而且应该与他们所属的其他当地生态社区建立互惠互利的关系，”健康与安全学院生物学教授、斯坦福大学多尔可持续发展学院地球系统科学教授、该论文的合著者Tadashi Fukami说)”可知，Fukami 教授指出，尽管研究结果对科学界来说是新的，但它实际上只是证实了世界各地原住民社区早已知道的事情，即人类可以并且应该与他们所在的当地生态社区建立互利的关系。故选B。 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。 Establishing healthy boundaries with yourself will help you stay within your range of control and prioritize what matters most.

One day, an old woman got on the bus with an anxious look on her face. She fished in her pocket but failed to take anything out. She explained something to the driver in a low voice, and then the driver signed to her to take a seat. Right behind me, I heard a man's whisper,“ Why didn't she pay for her fare(车费)?”A woman responded,“ Maybe she always expects a free ride, and she gets it.” I heard all those words and it was only then that I noticed the sign saying what wasn't allowed on the bus. No free rides. No spitting. No playing music. I glanced around my seat, and saw the woman duck her head down. Her face turned red with embarrassment as she attempted to avoid making eye contact with anyone. It remained unknown why she didn't pay, but I felt sorry for her. I reached deep into my schoolbag for the wallet that contained the change I had earned from housework and returning bottles and wastepaper to the recycling center. I rose from my seat, came to the front and put a shiny coin into the fa re box. I whispered to the driver,“ For the lady,” my heart filled with pride. The driver gave me an approving smile. And then the machine beeped (哔哔声), saying an adult's fare had been paid. I saw a relaxed smile spreading across her face. Two weeks later, it was raining fit to drown the town. After school, I dashed out of the school gate and hurried to the bus stop. By the time the bus pulled up, I was wet through. I caught sight of the familiar face of the driver when I stood at the fare box. I dug in my schoolbag for the wallet. 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。 But I was at a loss when I opened it. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was about to get off when the driver stopped me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】But I was at a loss when I opened it. My wallet was gone! I must have left it at home. I felt my face turn red with embarrassment, just like the old woman from before. I looked up at the driver, unsure of what to do. The driver recognized me and gave me a reassuring smile. “It’s okay, kid,” he said, “Just take a seat.” I nodded gratefully and found an empty seat near the back. I couldn’t help but think about how the old woman must have felt that day. Now, I was in her shoes, and it didn’t feel good at all. I was about to get off when the driver stopped me. “Wait a minute,” he said, reaching into his pocket. He handed me a small, shiny coin. “Here, take this. It’s for your fare tomorrow.” I was stunned. “But why?” I asked. The driver smiled warmly. “Because kindness always comes back around,” he said. I took the coin, my heart swelling with gratitude. As I stepped off the bus, I realized that a simple act of kindness could make a big difference in someone’s day. And from that moment on, I promised myself to always pay it forward whenever I could. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，本文讲述了我在公交车上帮助了一位没有钱支付车费的老女人，两周后自己也遇到了同样的困境，最终得到了司机的帮助。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“但是当我打开它的时候，我不知所措。”可知，第一段可描写我发现自己忘记带钱包，感到尴尬，但司机认出了我让我免费乘车。 ②由第二段首句内容“我正要下车，这时司机拦住了我。”可知，第二段可描写司机在我下车前给了我一枚硬币，告诉我“善意总会回报”，我感到非常感激，并决心以后也要帮助别人。 2.续写线索：忘记带钱包——感到尴尬——司机认出了我并让我免费乘车——感激—决心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①给与：offer /give ②帮助：help/assist ③承诺：promise /commit ④意识到：realize /be aware of 情绪类 ①惊讶的：stunned/amazed ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] I took the coin, my heart swelling with gratitude.
