West Highland Railway Line is one of the “greatest hits” of the landscapes Scotland offers.The line can be enjoyed through the comfortable Caledonian Sleeper might train from London to Fort William, with the last stretch of the journey accompanied by breakfast. Remember to keep an eye out for stags(雄鹿)as they survey their kingdom. The Ghan, Australia Widely regarded as one of the world’s greatest rail journeys, it runs weekly over a 2,979-kilometer route crossing the length of Australia from Adelaide in the south to Darwin in the Northern Territory. Each trip takes more than 53 hours, including extended stops in remote towns such as Coober Pedy for passengers to experience the Outback during off-train tours. Qinghai-Xizang Railway, China For centuries, known as “The Roof of the World”, Xizang was visited only by the hardiest travelers and explorers, but the opening of the remarkable Qinghai-Xizang Railway in 2006 created a permanent connection with the Chinese rail network. The 1,956 kilometer route from Xining to Lhasa tops out at the Tanggula Pass, 5,068 meters above sea level. With its opening, direct trains run to Lhasa from Beijing in 40 hours and Shanghai 47 hours. The TranzAlpine, New Zealand The TranzAlpine takes four and a half hours to cover just 224 kilometers. Its famous “open-air carriage(客车厢)” is the real highlight. This open-sided car allows passengers to experience the fresh mountain air first-hand and take amazing landscape photos. Passengers can also now listen to a GPS-based audio commentary in English, enjoying stories about places along the route, the country and its culture. 1.

There are more than 600 climbing areas across this East Asian country of about 51.6 million people. More than 500,000 fans have taken up the sport. Why is climbing so popular in Korea? Let’s find out. Rock climbing started to catch on in South Korea in the early 1990s. The sport includes a variety of events, each with its own challenges and excitements. Bouldering is about climbing short but difficult paths without ropes. This kind of climbing requires strength, agility (灵活), and problem-solving skills. Lead climbing includes longer paths, where climbers climb onto fixed points. This tests both their physical strength and mental focus. Speed climbing is a race against the clock to climb a pre-determined path as quickly as possible. One reason for the rise in the sport’s popularity is its presence in popular culture. For example, a 2019 Korean movie called Exit has several rock-climbing scenes. The movie scenes have resulted in a lot of interest and curiosity among viewers. Many have been inspired to try climbing for themselves. I recently talked with two young rock climbers about their interest in the sport. “I took up climbing because I wanted to quit Taekwondo (跆拳道),” said Shin Hyeon-gyu, 12. “I got addicted after watching the Asian Games and seeing climbers in action.” Kim Ji-eun, who is also 12, said that rock climbing is a natural fit for her. “I enjoyed climbing things when I was little,” she said. “So climbing seemed like the perfect sport for me.” Both climbers expressed similar opinions about why they love the sport. “It’s fun to hang on the wall and use the strength in my arms,” Hyeon-gyu said. “Climbing feels like playing,” Ji-eun added, “or being on a ride at an amusement park.” 4. What does the underlined phrase “catch on” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Get ready. B. Be familiar. C. Make sense. D. Become popular. 5. What does the author want to tell us in paragraph 3? A. Fun of climbing. B. Benefits of climbing. C. Types of climbing. D. Training of climbing. 6. Why do many people start practicing climbing in Korea? A. Because it appears in a movie. B. Because it is a better way to keep healthy. C Because it makes people feel cool. D. Because it is regarded as an amusement sport. 7. Why did Shin Hyeon-gyu begin climbing? A. To win a prize. B. To change her sport. C. To realize her childhood dream. D. To develop cultural traditions. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了攀岩运动在韩国越来越受欢迎的现象，并阐述了攀岩运动在韩国流行的几个原因，包括攀岩在流行文化中的出现激发了人们的兴趣，以及攀岩本身的乐趣吸引了年轻人参与。 【4题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“More than 500,000 fans have taken up the sport. Why is climbing so popular in Korea? Let’s find out.( 超过50万的球迷参与了这项运动。为什么攀岩在韩国如此受欢迎？让我们来看看。)”可知，此处强调攀岩在韩国如此的受欢迎，后文应该解释其受欢迎的原因。根据第二段中“Rock climbing started to catch on in South Korea in the early 1990s.(攀岩在20世纪90年代初开始在韩国……。)”以及“The sport includes a variety of events, each with its own challenges and excitements.( 这项运动包括各种各样的项目，每个项目都有自己的挑战和刺激。)”可知，因为攀岩这项运动包括各种各样的项目，每个项目都有自己的挑战和刺激，同时承接前文，此处强调的是攀岩在20世纪90年代初开始在韩国。故划线词组catch on指的是“流行起来”，与D选项“Become popular.(变得流行起来)”意思相同。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Bouldering is about climbing short but difficult paths without ropes. (抱石运动就是在没有绳索的情况下爬短而难走的小路。)”以及“ Lead climbing includes longer paths, where climbers climb onto fixed points. (引线攀登包括较长的路径，登山者爬到固定的点上。)”以及“Speed climbing is a race against the clock to climb a pre-determined path as quickly as possible.(速度攀爬是一种与时间赛跑的运动，要尽可能快地爬上预定的路线。)”可知，本段详细描述了三种不同类型的攀岩：抱石运动、引线攀登和速度攀爬，这三种都是攀岩的不同类型。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“One reason for the rise in the sport’s popularity is its presence in popular culture. For example, a 2019 Korean movie called Exit has several rock-climbing scenes. The movie scenes have resulted in a lot of interest and curiosity among viewers. Many have been inspired to try climbing for themselves.( 这项运动越来越受欢迎的一个原因是它在流行文化中的存在。例如，2019年上映的韩国电影《极限逃生》中就有几个攀岩的场景。电影场景引起了观众的极大兴趣和好奇心。许多人受到启发，想要自己尝试攀岩。)”可知，电影中攀岩场景的出现是许多人开始练习攀岩的原因之一。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“ “I took up climbing because I wanted to quit Taekwondo (跆拳道),” said Shin Hyeon-gyu, 12. (12岁的Shin Hyeon-gyu说：“我开始攀岩是因为我想放弃跆拳道。”)可知，Shin Hyeon-gyu开始攀岩是为了改变她的运动项目即因为其想要放弃跆拳道，转向攀岩。故选B。 C Every year on April 22,Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970.It gave a voice to an emerging public consciousness about the state of our planet.The founder was Gaylord Nelson. What moved Gaylord Nelson to action was the1969massive oil spill（溢出）in California,the largest oil spill in the United States at that time.The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a strong impact on marine life,killing an estimated3,500sea birds,as well as marine animals such as dolphins,elephant seals and sea lions.Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time,Nelson found it was a right time to channel the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection.He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment.Thus,Earth Day was born in1970,and public environmental consciousness took centre stage. On 22nd April 1970,millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a healthy,sustainable environment and thousands of students marched in protest of the terrible situation of the environment.Businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.The year1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more countries around the world.It helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro,bringing together many nations,for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.In 2009,the United Nations decided to officially set April 22 as Earth Day. For his role as founder of Earth Day,Gaylord Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom（1995）,the highest honour given to civilians in the United States.We honor the man,as the fight for a cleaner environment continues. 8.

B 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文，主要介绍了4月22日的“地球日”（Earth Day）创立者盖洛德·纳尔逊是如何创立地球日的以及地球日的历史。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Every year on April 22,Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970.It gave a voice to an emerging public consciousness about the state of our planet.The founder was Gaylord Nelson.” （每年的4月22日，地球日是1970年现代环保运动诞生的纪念日。它表达了公众对我们星球状况的新意识。创始人是盖洛德·纳尔逊。）可知，它唤起了公众的环境意识。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据 第二段“Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time,Nelson found it was a right time to channel the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection.He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment.Thus,Earth Day was born in1970,and public environmental consciousness took centre stage.” （受到当时学生反战运动的启发，纳尔逊发现，现在正是将学生的精力引导到为环境保护而战的好时机。他认为是时候教育美国人保护环境的必要性了。于是，1970年地球日诞生了，公众的环境意识成为了焦点。）”可知，他让更多人参与到环境问题中来。故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“On 22nd April 1970,millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a healthy,sustainable environment and thousands of students marched in protest of the terrible situation of the environment.Businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.The year1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more countries around the world.It helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro,bringing together many nations,for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.In 2009,the United Nations decided to officially set April 22 as Earth Day. ”（1970年4月22日，数百万美国人走上街头，为一个健康、可持续环境而游行，数千名学生游行抗议环境的糟糕状况。如果企业想要继续经营，就必须遵循环境标准。1990年，地球日向世界上更多的国家延伸。它为1992年在里约热内卢举行的联合国地球峰会铺平了道路，许多国家聚集在一起，共同努力保护环境。2009年，联合国决定正式将4月22日定为“地球日”。）可知，这是地球日的发展。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段地球日的创始人是盖洛德·纳尔逊。以及第四段“For his role as founder of Earth Day,Gaylord Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom（1995）,the highest honour given to civilians in the United States.We honor the man,as the fight for a cleaner environment continues ”（盖洛德·纳尔逊作为地球日的创立者，被授予总统自由勋章(1995年)，这是授予美国平民的最高荣誉。）可知，盖洛德·纳尔逊是一个负责任的人。故选B。 D Lonely? You’re hardly alone. That’s the finding of a new study. And that appears throughout industrial nations across the globe. The study linked rising loneliness to a greater use of smartphones and the Internet over the same years. Jean Twenge, a psychologist, took part in the study. Her team has found that since 2012, US teens have been spending less time together face to face. “Smartphones can help keep us connected with friends,” says Twenge. “But they can also make people feel excluded (隔离).” Girls, especially, may feel this way. One reason may be that they like to post more photos and selfies than boys. Studies have shown that if those images don’t get a lot of “likes”, it can affect a teen’s mental health. And there’s “phubbing”, a mixture of “phone” and “snubbing (冷落)”. It’s that moment in which a friend or family member takes out a phone and keeps looking at it，paying no attention to everybody else, including you. Phubbing is one way that technology can affect you, even when you’re not the one using it. The new study pulled its data from a survey. Some 1 million 15-and 16-year-old students from 37 countries took this survey in 2000, 2003, 2012, 2015 and 2018. Its questions mostly dealt with education. But they also included six statements about loneliness, such as “I feel awkward and out of place in my school”. Students could strongly disagree, disagree, agree or strongly agree with each statement. If technology causes loneliness, should we stop using it? “No, not at all,” argues Twenge. “Everybody of all ages is trying to figure out how we can best use these technologies and stay mentally healthy.” Her advice is to “use your smartphone for what it’s good for. Then put it away.” That includes putting it away overnight—ideally in another room. 12. How do girls differ from boys in smartphone use? A. They prefer to post pictures with it. B. They depend on it to keep in touch. C. They use it as a learning tool. D. They need it to stay in style. 13. Why does the author discuss “phubbing” in paragraph 4? A. To introduce a new term of the smartphone. B. To give an example of communication. C. To introduce an embarrassing situation. D. To show the harm of the smartphone. 14. Which of the following would Twenge probably agree with? A. Smart phones only do harm to teenagers. B. Parents should buy phones for their kids. C. Boys are in greater need of phones than girls. D. We can use our smartphones to benefit ourselves. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Smartphone—the Focus of a Study B. The Smartphone—a Friend of Teenagers C. The Smartphone—a Source of Loneliness D. The Smartphone—a Communication Tool 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项新的研究，研究表明：近些年来由于智能手机和网络的普及，越来越多的青少年感到孤独。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“One reason may be that they like to post more photos and selfies (自拍) than boys.(其中一个原因可能是，她们比男孩子更喜欢上传照片和自拍)”可知，女孩子更喜欢利用手机上传照片。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“Phubbing is one way technology can affect you, even when you’re not the one using it.(低头族是科技影响你的一种方式，即使你不是那个使用者)”推知，本段中讲到低头族是想要讲述智能手机的危害。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“ “No, not at all,” argues Twenge. “Everybody of all ages is trying to figure out how we can best use these technologies and stay mentally healthy.” Her advice is to “use your smartphone for what it’s good for. Then put it away.” (‘不，一点也不，’Twenge说。‘所有年龄段的人都在试图找出如何最好地利用这些技术并保持心理健康。’她的建议是‘用你的智能手机做有益的事情，然后把它收起来。’)”推知，Twenge认为我们可以利用手机来做对自己有益的事情。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段“The study linked rising loneliness to a greater use of smartphones and the internet over the same years.(这项研究将这么多年来日益增长的孤独感与更多地使用智能手机和网络联系起来)”可知，这篇文章主要讲述智能手机是孤独感的来源之一。C项“智能手机——孤独的源泉”可以作为本文最佳标题。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最佳选项。选项中有两个为多余选项。 Bullying(霸凌) is a big problem.

F 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了霸凌的危害、现状，霸凌者欺负他人的原因以及解决措施。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Bullies might hit, kick, or push to hurt kids, or use words to call names, tease, or scare them.(霸凌者可能会打、踢或推人来伤害孩子，或者用言语辱骂、戏弄或恐吓他们)”可知，根据前一句说的是霸凌者会做的行为，而E选项也在描述霸凌者做的事，并且E选项中的even表递进。故E选项“有些霸凌者甚至威胁孩子或试图让他们做他们不想做的事情”符合语境，故选E。 【17题详解】 根据上文“It is a big problem that affects lots of kids.(这是一个影响很多孩子的大问题)”以及后文“Being bullied can make kids feel really bad, and the stress of dealing with it can make them feel sick.(被欺负会让孩子们感觉非常糟糕，而处理这种事情的压力会让他们感到恶心)”可知，上文提到霸凌是一个大问题，影响到很多孩子，后文讲述了其给被欺负者带来的负面影响，可知本句是在说明被欺负着的人数，C选项中they have been bullied or teased可与后文中Being bullied相对应。故C选项“四分之三的孩子说他们曾被欺负或戏弄”符合语境，故选C。 【18题详解】 本空为本段小标题，根据本段内容“Some bullies are looking for attention. They might think bullying is a way to be popular or to get what they want. Most bullies are trying to make themselves feel more important. When they pick on someone else, it can make them feel big and powerful. Some bullies come from families where everyone is angry and shouting all the time.(一些霸凌者在寻求关注。他们可能认为欺凌是一种受欢迎或得到他们想要的东西的方式。大多数霸凌者都试图让自己觉得自己更重要。当他们欺负别人时，会让他们觉得自己很强大。有些恃强凌弱者的家庭里，每个人都很愤怒，总是大喊大叫)”可知，本段主要围绕着霸凌者会为什么霸凌别人进行分析，故B选项“为什么霸凌者会那样做？”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据后文“As much as you can, avoid the bully. You can't go into hiding or skip class, of course. But if you can take a different route and avoid the mean kid, do so. Stand tall and be brave. When you're scared of another person, you're probably not feeling you are brave. But sometimes just acting bravely is enough to stop a bully.(尽你所能，避免霸凌者。当然，你不能躲起来或逃课。但如果你能选择不同的路线，避开坏孩子，那就去做吧。抬头挺胸，要勇敢。当你害怕另一个人时，你可能并不觉得自己勇敢。但有时只要勇敢地行动，就足以阻止一个恶霸)”可知，后文主要说明要勇敢地行动，不要给霸凌者欺负你的机会，故G选项“不要给霸凌者机会”符合语境，故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Talk to someone you trust if you are bothered by a bully.(如果你被欺负了，和你信任的人谈谈)”以及后文“Make a plan to walk with a friend or two on the way to school, recess, lunch, or wherever you think you might meet the bully.(制定一个计划，和一两个朋友一起在上学、课间休息、午餐或任何你认为可能会遇到霸凌者的地方散步)”可知，上文假定了情境是你遭受了霸凌，后文提到建议做好计划以和朋友同行去任何可能遭受霸凌的地方，即借助朋友的力量来避免被霸凌。故F选项“如果你想避免被霸凌，两个人比一个人更好”符合语境，故选F。 第二部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Peyton Thorby was only 8 years old, but this cheerleader proved to already be a star when she performed by herself.

I lived on that phone all summer with my face buried in its screen. I ignored my family and my surroundings. Being connected was more important than being present. So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year. “This year,” my dad said, “we’ll be doing something special. We’re going camping!” His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh. It wasn’t my dream vacation because mind was on my phone. I was so buried in the screen, in fact, that the first time I can remember truly looking up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite. I stared out the window and saw redwoods towering above us, their branches threatening to pierce (刺破) the blue sky. I saw a roaring river, with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing white rapids. The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot. But none of that mattered to me. The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious: my phone no longer had service. The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense. My dad announced that he had chosen a campsite that had no cell service, and that my phone would be useless until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world! I went through the full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip. I raged. I bargained. I begged. I flip-flopped (转变) from a depressive state to anger and back. I went to bed angrily that night. But when I awoke in the morning, something had changed. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Instead of burying myself in my phone, I focused on something else: my surroundings. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next four days passed in a flash with many fun activities. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Instead of burying myself in my phone, l focused on something else: my surroundings. I let the noise of the wilderness wash over me, animals and bugs creating a ruckus that was both loud and serene at the same time. My anger turned to peace, then little interest and, finally, excitement. Standing on the high campsite, I felt the weight of stress melt from my shoulders as I viewed the vast expanse that unfolded below me. The sight that met my startled eyes nearly took my breath away. For the first time, I thought camping in a place that had no cell service might not be so bad. The next four days passed in a flash with many fun activities. I hiked. I swam. I fished. My dad and I learned how to start a fire together after several false starts. We cooked together and I ate the sweetest marshmallows I had ever tasted. Dad told me stories of his life, stories I had never heard or perhaps I hadn’t been listening. When the weekend came to an end, I realized I hadn’t thought of my phone once. I hadn’t felt the need to be connected to anywhere else. It dawned on me that what mattered most were the moments I was sharing with just my father and nature. 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在上高中之前，爸爸送他一部手机，于是他就完全沉迷其中。为了改善这种情况，爸爸带全家去户外野营。因没有信号而无法玩手机的作者大发脾气，但却逐渐发现了自然的美丽和家人的陪伴是更加美好的事情。 【详解】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在作者上高中的前几个月，父母送给他一部手机，整个夏天作者都沉迷于用手机与朋友们发消息，忽略了家人和周围的环境。当父亲宣布假期要去野营时，作者感到很失望，那意味着他不能玩手机了，最终，父亲选择了一个没有手机服务的露营地，这意味着在露营期间，作者无法与外界联系，他感到很生气，但当他第二天早上醒来时，一些事情已经改变了。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我没有沉迷于我的手机，而是专注于别的事情：我周围的环境。”可知，第一段可描写作者周围的环境及作者情绪上的变化。 ②由第二段首句内容“接下来的四天在许多有趣的活动中转瞬即逝。”可知，第二段可描写四天中作者经历了哪些有趣的活动及通过这次野营作者领悟到的道理。 2.续写线索：欣赏周围的环境——愤怒转为兴奋——没有手机没那么糟糕——野营中有趣的活动——作者的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.结束：come to an end/draw to an end ②.想起：think of/call to mind 情绪类 ①.愤怒：anger/wrath/ indignation ②.坏的：bad/terrible/awful 【点睛】[高分句型1].

West Highland Railway Line is one of the “greatest hits” of the landscapes Scotland offers.The line can be enjoyed through the comfortable Caledonian Sleeper might train from London to Fort William, with the last stretch of the journey accompanied by breakfast. Remember to keep an eye out for stags(雄鹿)as they survey their kingdom. The Ghan, Australia Widely regarded as one of the world’s greatest rail journeys, it runs weekly over a 2,979-kilometer route crossing the length of Australia from Adelaide in the south to Darwin in the Northern Territory. Each trip takes more than 53 hours, including extended stops in remote towns such as Coober Pedy for passengers to experience the Outback during off-train tours. Qinghai-Xizang Railway, China For centuries, known as “The Roof of the World”, Xizang was visited only by the hardiest travelers and explorers, but the opening of the remarkable Qinghai-Xizang Railway in 2006 created a permanent connection with the Chinese rail network. The 1,956 kilometer route from Xining to Lhasa tops out at the Tanggula Pass, 5,068 meters above sea level. With its opening, direct trains run to Lhasa from Beijing in 40 hours and Shanghai 47 hours. The TranzAlpine, New Zealand The TranzAlpine takes four and a half hours to cover just 224 kilometers. Its famous “open-air carriage(客车厢)” is the real highlight. This open-sided car allows passengers to experience the fresh mountain air first-hand and take amazing landscape photos. Passengers can also now listen to a GPS-based audio commentary in English, enjoying stories about places along the route, the country and its culture. 1.

There are more than 600 climbing areas across this East Asian country of about 51.6 million people. More than 500,000 fans have taken up the sport. Why is climbing so popular in Korea? Let’s find out. Rock climbing started to catch on in South Korea in the early 1990s. The sport includes a variety of events, each with its own challenges and excitements. Bouldering is about climbing short but difficult paths without ropes. This kind of climbing requires strength, agility (灵活), and problem-solving skills. Lead climbing includes longer paths, where climbers climb onto fixed points. This tests both their physical strength and mental focus. Speed climbing is a race against the clock to climb a pre-determined path as quickly as possible. One reason for the rise in the sport’s popularity is its presence in popular culture. For example, a 2019 Korean movie called Exit has several rock-climbing scenes. The movie scenes have resulted in a lot of interest and curiosity among viewers. Many have been inspired to try climbing for themselves. I recently talked with two young rock climbers about their interest in the sport. “I took up climbing because I wanted to quit Taekwondo (跆拳道),” said Shin Hyeon-gyu, 12. “I got addicted after watching the Asian Games and seeing climbers in action.” Kim Ji-eun, who is also 12, said that rock climbing is a natural fit for her. “I enjoyed climbing things when I was little,” she said. “So climbing seemed like the perfect sport for me.” Both climbers expressed similar opinions about why they love the sport. “It’s fun to hang on the wall and use the strength in my arms,” Hyeon-gyu said. “Climbing feels like playing,” Ji-eun added, “or being on a ride at an amusement park.” 4. What does the underlined phrase “catch on” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Get ready. B. Be familiar. C. Make sense. D. Become popular. 5. What does the author want to tell us in paragraph 3? A. Fun of climbing. B. Benefits of climbing. C. Types of climbing. D. Training of climbing. 6. Why do many people start practicing climbing in Korea? A. Because it appears in a movie. B. Because it is a better way to keep healthy. C. Because it makes people feel cool. D. Because it is regarded as an amusement sport. 7. Why did Shin Hyeon-gyu begin climbing? A. To win a prize. B. To change her sport. C. To realize her childhood dream. D. To develop cultural traditions. C Every year on April 22,Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970.It gave a voice to an emerging public consciousness about the state of our planet.The founder was Gaylord Nelson. What moved Gaylord Nelson to action was the1969massive oil spill（溢出）in California,the largest oil spill in the United States at that time.The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a strong impact on marine life,killing an estimated3,500sea birds,as well as marine animals such as dolphins,elephant seals and sea lions.Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time,Nelson found it was a right time to channel the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection.He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment.Thus,Earth Day was born in1970,and public environmental consciousness took centre stage. On 22nd April 1970,millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a healthy,sustainable environment and thousands of students marched in protest of the terrible situation of the environment.Businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.The year1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more countries around the world.It helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro,bringing together many nations,for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.In 2009,the United Nations decided to officially set April 22 as Earth Day. For his role as founder of Earth Day,Gaylord Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom（1995）,the highest honour given to civilians in the United States.We honor the man,as the fight for a cleaner environment continues. 8. What can we learn about Earth Day? A. It was founded at the end of 1970s. B. It was first celebrated in Rio de Janeiro. C. People will march on the street on this day. D. It arouses public environmental awareness. 9 What did Gaylord Nelson do to make Earth Day possible? A. He reduced the loss of the oil spill. B. He participated in an antiwar movement. C. He set environmental standards for business. D. He involved more people in environmental issues. 10. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. The focus of Earth Day. B. The development of Earth Day. C. The world 's concern on the environment. D. The joint efforts of different countries. 11. Which of the following best describes Gaylord Nelson? A. Intelligent. B. Responsible. C. Considerate. D. Knowledgeable. D Lonely? You’re hardly alone. That’s the finding of a new study. And that appears throughout industrial nations across the globe. The study linked rising loneliness to a greater use of smartphones and the Internet over the same years. Jean Twenge, a psychologist, took part in the study. Her team has found that since 2012, US teens have been spending less time together face to face. “Smartphones can help keep us connected with friends,” says Twenge. “But they can also make people feel excluded (隔离).” Girls, especially, may feel this way. One reason may be that they like to post more photos and selfies than boys. Studies have shown that if those images don’t get a lot of “likes”, it can affect a teen’s mental health. And there’s “phubbing”, a mixture of “phone” and “snubbing (冷落)”. It’s that moment in which a friend or family member takes out a phone and keeps looking at it，paying no attention to everybody else, including you. Phubbing is one way that technology can affect you, even when you’re not the one using it. The new study pulled its data from a survey. Some 1 million 15-and 16-year-old students from 37 countries took this survey in 2000, 2003, 2012, 2015 and 2018. Its questions mostly dealt with education. But they also included six statements about loneliness, such as “I feel awkward and out of place in my school”. Students could strongly disagree, disagree, agree or strongly agree with each statement.

I lived on that phone all summer with my face buried in its screen. I ignored my family and my surroundings. Being connected was more important than being present. So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year. “This year,” my dad said, “we’ll be doing something special. We’re going camping!” His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh. It wasn’t my dream vacation because mind was on my phone. I was so buried in the screen, in fact, that the first time I can remember truly looking up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite. I stared out the window and saw redwoods towering above us, their branches threatening to pierce (刺破) the blue sky. I saw a roaring river, with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing white rapids. The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot. But none of that mattered to me. The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious: my phone no longer had service. The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense. My dad announced that he had chosen a campsite that had no cell service, and that my phone would be useless until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world! I went through the full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip. I raged. I bargained. I begged. I flip-flopped (转变) from a depressive state to anger and back. I went to bed angrily that night. But when I awoke in the morning, something had changed. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Instead of burying myself in my phone, I focused on something else: my surroundings. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next four days passed in a flash with many fun activities. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
