Jane Austen (1775-1817) She wrote about what life was like during the late 1700s and early 1800s through the books Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma. These books were released within just four years of each other. Two other books, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, were published after she died. Her face is now on the new £10 note, reminding us every day how much her books have affected us all. Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) She was born into a wealthy family, which disapproved of her entering the nursing profession. After receiving a letter from the Secretary of War who asked her to put together a team and look after British soldiers during the Crimen War, she moved to London. This was the first time that women were allowed to serve in the army. She went home as a hero and even received a thank-you letter from Queen Victoria. She left a legacy in healthcare in the war. Marie Curie (1867-1934) One of the most famous scientists of all time comes in the form of Marie Curie. Together with her fellow scientist and husband Pierre, she made amazing work on their discoveries. In1903, they received a Nobel Prize. She won another Nobel Prize in 1911, the first woman to do so. The Curies were the pair who made discoveries on radioactivity, which paved the way for the creation of X-rays. Mother Teresa (1910-1997) In September 2016, Mother Teresa was announced to be named as a Saint, which she deserves after her devotion to helping people in poverty. In 1929, she traveled to India and dedicated her whole life to helping poor people, especially in the Indian city of Kolkata. She received the Nobel Prize in 1979 and canceled the big dinner celebration. She then suggested giving all of the money to the poor people in Kolkata. 1. Why is the £10 note mentioned in the text?

After receiving a letter from the Secretary of War who asked her to put together a team and look after British soldiers during the Crimen War, she moved to London. This was the first time that women were allowed to serve in the army. She went home as a hero and even received a thank-you letter from Queen Victoria. She left a legacy in healthcare in the war.(她出生在一个富裕的家庭，这个家庭不赞成她从事护理工作。在收到一封来自战争部长的信，信中要求她组建一个团队，在克里米亚战争期间照顾英国士兵，之后她搬到了伦敦。这是妇女第一次被允许在军队服役。她以英雄的身份回家了，甚至还收到了维多利亚女王的感谢信。她在战争期间为医疗保健事业留下了宝贵的遗产)”可知，弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔在护理方面做出了贡献，故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“She won another Nobel Prize in 1911, the first woman to do so.(1911年，她再次获得诺贝尔奖，这是第一位获得诺贝尔奖的女性)”以及第五段“She received the Nobel Prize in 1979 and canceled the big dinner celebration.(她在1979年获得诺贝尔奖，并取消了盛大的晚宴庆祝活动)”可知，玛丽·居里和特蕾莎修女都获得了诺贝尔奖，故选A。 B Juleus Ghunta is a published children’s author and award-winning poet. But growing up, he could barely read. Ghunta’s family lived in a rural part of Western Jamaica. His mother often had to make tough choices about how to use their limited resources, including a decision to send his oldest sister to school. When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books. By the time he entered the sixth grade, he could spell his name, but he still couldn’t make out words or read with understanding. When Ghunta was about 12, a young teacher decided to start a special reading program for struggling students. Ghunta was the first student to sign up. The teacher was incredibly kind to him. She did not ask anything of Ghunta, except that he worked hard and believed in himself. Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction. He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry. Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.” 4. What caused Ghunta’s poor reading ability? A. Limited family resources. B. Early disinterest in reading. C. Lacking enough attention. D. Terrible memory. 5. Who inspired Ghunta greatly in his study? A. His mother. B. His sister. C. A young teacher. D. Other struggling students. 6. What does paragraph 5 mainly say about Ghunta? A. His future life. B. His achievements. C. His family background. D. His self-taught experience. 7. Which of the following can best describe Ghunta’s story? A. Reading helps people find happiness. B. Direction is the key to success. C. Poverty contributes to a person’s success. D. A teacher’s belief lights a student’s path. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述Ghunta的成长经历，特别是他从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书作家和获奖诗人的转变过程，展现了个人奋斗和老师的帮助对他人生路径的深刻影响。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books.(他不仅小时候被关在家里不去上学，而且也没有机会接触到书)”可知，家庭环境的原因造成了Ghunta较差的阅读能力。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction.(在她的指导下，Ghunta的阅读能力终于开始提高。他开始觉得更自信了。“她给我留下了识字的礼物，”他说，“以及作为人的价值。”他的生活有了新的方向)”可知，一位年轻老师的激励使Ghunta阅读水平提高，生活也有了新方向。故选C。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry.(他从小学毕业时获得了许多学术奖项，其中包括“阅读进步最大”奖。他上了大学。如今，他是两本关于克服童年困难经历的儿童书籍的作者。他现在正在写他的第一部长篇诗集)”可知，第五段主要概括了Ghunta的成就。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.”(Ghunta说：“我希望她能看到她对我的生活产生的重大影响，以及我如何将对她的记忆——希望和光明——带在身边，以及它如何继续成为我快乐的源泉。”)”结合本文叙述了Ghunta从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书作家和获奖诗人的转变过程。在此期间一个年轻老师的出现改变了Ghunta的人生方向，由此可见，教师的信念照亮学生成长之路。故选D。 C Sensory-based food education given to 3 — 5-year-old children in the kindergarten increases their willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, according to a new study from the University of Eastern Finland. The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things. In the Sapere method, children are given an active role around food, and they are encouraged to share their sensory experiences. For example, kindergartens can introduce different vegetables and fruit to children. They can involve children in baking and cooking, and they can offer children opportunities to grow their own vegetables in the kindergarten backyard. Food-related themes can also be included in books and games. The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups. Some were offered sensory-based food education, while others weren’t. Children were offered a snack buffet containing different vegetables and fruit to choose from, and the researchers took photos of their plates to analyse their willingness to choose and eat these food items. The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit. This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help even out the dietary gap between families. “Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. Positive and personal food-related experiences gained in the kindergarten can help adjust dietary preferences in a direction that is beneficial to health. Dietary preferences learned in early childhood often stick with a person all the way to adolescence and adulthood. 8. What is the main focus of the new study? A. The relation between diet and health. B. The impact of family on food choices. C. The role of kindergartens in food education. D. The effectiveness of Sapere in food education. 9. How did the researchers conduct their research? A. By making a comparison. B. By analyzing the previous cases. C. By interviewing some children. D. By collecting the relevant data. 10. What do the underlined words “even out” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Measure. B. Narrow. C. Analyze. D. Update. 11. What’s Kähkönen’s attitude towards the Sapere method? A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Favorable. D. Unclear. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。一项新研究显示，在幼儿园对3到5岁的孩子进行以感官为基础的食物教育会增强他们选择蔬菜和水果的意愿。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things.(研究人员使用了基于感官的食物教育方法Sapere，该方法利用了儿童在学习新事物时依赖所有五种感官的自然方式)”可知，这项新研究的主要焦点是Sapere在食品教育中的有效性。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups.(研究人员比较了不同幼儿园组的孩子)”可知，研究者使用对比的方式进行研究。故选A。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit.(研究结果表明，以感官为基础的食物教育增加了孩子们选择蔬菜和水果的意愿，尤其是在父母受教育程度较低的孩子中。平均而言，父母受教育程度较低的孩子往往吃较少的蔬菜和水果)”以及划线词上文“ This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help(这就是幼儿园的饮食教育如何帮助……)”可知，食物教育在提高儿童选择蔬菜和水果的意愿上起着重要的作用。所以幼儿园的食物教育可以帮助缩小不同家庭间孩子在饮食习惯上的差异。故画线词与Narrow意思最为接近，表示“缩小”。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. (“另一个有趣的发现是，Sapere食品教育方法似乎也改善了幼儿园群体的饮食氛围。这鼓励孩子们在他们的盘子里选择更多样化的食物，”健康专家Kähkönen解释说)”可推断，Kähkönen对Sapere方法持“支持”的态度。故选C。 D Red pandas live in high-altitude, mild forests where they prefer to be near water and have access to bamboo. They are mostly active at dusk and dawn, and they sleep during most of the day. They rely on the trees for shelter, to escape from predators (捕食者), and to sunbathe in the winter. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. They need a lot of it to survive — around 2 kilograms each day. However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. When people move into the red panda’s area, they clear forests for housing and commercial development, farming and mining. Natural disasters such as landslides, floods; heavy snow and rainfall have also destroyed their habitats. Forest fires, invasive (侵入的) plant species, and issues with bamboo flowering (including the death of the plant) have similarly had effects on the red panda’s habitat. Species of bamboo are affected by forest fires and other environmental changes. As people move into the area, they often collect bamboo, leaving less for red pandas to eat. Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. According to the IUCN, China has 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitat in the country. There are at least 19 protected areas in India, five in Bhutan and three in Myanmar. The Red Panda Network is a nonprofit organization that protects red pandas and their habitat. They work with local community groups to establish wildlife feeding centers, train forest protectors to raise awareness about red pandas, and work with villagers to establish protected areas. The WWF is also working to protect red pandas and their habitats. Because more than a third of the potential habitat is in Nepal, the group works with yak herders (牦牛牧民) and other groups there to lower their effect on the red panda’s habitat. 12. Why is it challenging for red pandas to find enough food? A. Bamboo is not good enough. B. They are not active hunters. C. Their habitats are becoming smaller. D. There is a lack of water in their habitat. 13. What do the data in paragraph 4 mainly show? A. Global efforts to protect red pandas. B. Serious situations faced by red pandas. C. India’s deep protection of rare wildlife. D. China’s advantage in keeping red pandas. 14. What does the Red Panda Network do to protect red pandas? A. Force yak herders to move away. B. Advocate people to adopt them. C. Cooperate with local experts to do research. D. Work with communities to build wildlife feeding centers. 15. What’s a suitable title for this text? A. The Key Points of Red Pandas’ Survival. B. The Influence of Natural Disasters on Bamboo. C. The Threat and Protection of Red Pandas. D. The Reason for the Disappearance of Bamboo. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍的是红熊猫面对的严峻形式以及各个国家和组织对它的保护 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. They need a lot of it to survive — around 2 kilograms each day. However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. (大约98%的红熊猫的食物是竹子。它们需要大量的水才能生存——每天大约2公斤。然而，由于红熊猫的栖息地越来越小，找到足够的竹子变得很困难。)”可知，由于红熊猫的栖息地越来越小，使得它们找到竹子变得很困难。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. (虽然红熊猫濒临灭绝，但人们正在采取措施拯救这个物种及其栖息地。)”可知，人们现在正在采取措施拯救濒临灭绝的红熊猫及其栖息地，结合下文的“According to the IUCN, China has 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitat in the country. There are at least 19 protected areas in India, five in Bhutan and three in Myanmar. (据世界自然保护联盟称，中国有46个保护区，覆盖了该国约65%的物种栖息地。印度至少有19个保护区，不丹有5个，缅甸有3个。)”可知，此处列举的数据显示了世界各地为保护红熊猫所付出的努力。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据尾段中的“They work with local community groups to establish wildlife feeding centers, train forest protectors to raise awareness about red pandas, and work with villagers to establish protected areas. (他们与当地社区团体合作建立野生动物喂养中心，培训森林保护者提高对红熊猫的认识，并与村民合作建立保护区。)”可知，Red Panda Network通过与当地社群合作建立野生动物饲养中心来保护红熊猫。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. When people move into the red panda’s area, they clear forests for housing and commercial development, farming and mining. (然而，由于红熊猫的栖息地越来越小，找到足够的竹子变得很困难。当人们搬到红熊猫的栖息地时，他们会为了住房、商业开发、农业和采矿而砍伐森林。)”以及第三段中的“Natural disasters such as landslides, floods; heavy snow and rainfall have also destroyed their habitats. ( 山体滑坡、洪水等自然灾害；大雪和暴雨也破坏了它们的栖息地。)”可知，由于人类的行为和自然灾害导致了红熊猫的栖息地减少，使得它们找到足够的竹子都很难；结合第四段中的“Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. ( 虽然红熊猫濒临灭绝，但人们正在采取措施拯救这个物种及其栖息地。)”以及下文中列举的数据和尾段中的“The Red Panda Network is a nonprofit organization that protects red pandas and their habitat. (红熊猫网络是一个保护红熊猫及其栖息地的非营利组织。)”可知，针对人类行为和自然灾难导致红熊猫栖息地减少的情况，世界各地以及一些非营利性组织为保护红熊猫开始采取措施，综合以上信息可知，本文主要介绍的是红熊猫面对的严峻形式以及各个国家和组织对它的保护，所以题目“红熊猫的威胁及保护”概括了本文的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选C项。 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。 Anyone with a story to tell can write a book, either for their own enjoyment or to publish for all to see.

She walked out of the door to a classic Midwestern winter scene — the cloudy sky projecting a gray color on the already gray-white snow covering her car. After cleaning her windshield (挡风玻璃), Clevey got into her car and drove to a nearby gas station, where she fueled up, bought herself a cup of coffee, and set back off in the direction of the highway. But as she pulled out of the gas station, she crashed into another car. “The car was silver gray, so it blended (融入) into the skyline. But I also knew it was my fault. I was not being careful about it,” Clevey later recalled. “I was really scared because the driver’s side was damaged. This was frightening because I knew the driver was sitting there and that meant she was probably hurt.” Clevey, who had already been crying, got out of the car and started making her way to the car she hit, which was about 30 feet away. To her surprise, the driver, a woman a bit older than Clevey, looked completely unharmed. “I was 19 years old. This was such a scary thing that had happened, and I was the one who did it. I was very apologetic, but I was also just like a baby in that moment,” Clevey remembered. “And this woman, instead of shouting at me, comforted me in that moment, which I really needed.” After her tears stopped, Clevey asked the driver if she was OK. When the woman responded that she was fine, Clevey could hardly believe it. “I ran into your driver’s side. How could you be OK?” Clevey asked. The woman said that she had a prosthetic (假体的) arm made of metal. 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。 It turned out that the prosthetic arm protected her from the impact of the crash. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a while, the ambulance arrived at the scene. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 It turned out that the prosthetic arm protected her from the impact of the crash. Just as Clevey didn’t know what to say, the woman offered to share her prosthetic story with Clevey. In fact, it was caused by a serious car accident several years ago resulting from her carelessness. She was much regretful for it and since then safety awareness while driving has been rooted in her mind. After hearing her story, Clevey felt shocked, mixed with a slight relief. However, in case there would be something wrong with the woman, Clevey insisted on calling the emergency services. After a while, the ambulance arrived at the scene. Clevey accompanied the woman to the hospital for a thorough examination and felt relieved when she was told that the woman was fine. The two exchanged contact information and Clevey left the hospital with a heart of gratefulness. After such an unexpected accident, Clevey learned a lesson that one can never be too careful while driving. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Lilah Clevey的一次驾车经历，包括她在途中发生的车祸、与受伤司机的互动以及从中汲取的教训，来讲述一个具有教育意义和情感色彩的故事 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“事实证明，正是这只假肢保护了她免受撞击的影响。”以及第二段首句内容“过了一会儿，救护车赶到了现场。”可知，第一段可描写这位女士告诉Clevey自己这只假肢的缘由，而Clevey则坚持拨打了急救电话。 ②由第二段首句内容“过了一会儿，救护车赶到了现场。”可知，第二段可描写经过检查，这位女士并无大碍。而Clevey也吸取了教训，明白开车时再怎么小心也不为过。 2.续写线索：事实证明，正是这只假肢保护了她免受撞击的影响——Clevey非常内疚，这时这位女士和Clevey分享了自己假肢的故事——原来这位女士也曾经开车粗心大意，所以发生了事故，这才有了假肢——Clevey深有感触，同时坚持拨打了急救电话——救护车赶到后，Clevey陪同这位女士前往医院进行检查——得知安然无恙时，Clevey才放下了心——从此，Clevey吸取了教训，开车时非常小心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①源自于：result from/arise from ②陪伴：accompany/keep … company ③非常小心：can never be too careful/can not be careful enough 情绪类 ①震惊：shocked/astonished/stunned ②感激：gratefulness/thankfulness 【点睛】【高分句型1】Just as Clevey didn’t know what to say, the woman offered to share her prosthetic story with Clevey.（运用了as引导的状语从句） 【高分句型2】After such an unexpected accident, Clevey learned a lesson that one can never be too careful while driving.（运用了that引导的同位语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 洛阳强基联盟高二12月联考 英语 第一部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Women are such amazing beings and if you need a bit of inspiration to keep going, here are stories of inspiring women who made a mark on history! Jane Austen (1775-1817) She wrote about what life was like during the late 1700s and early 1800s through the books Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma. These books were released within just four years of each other. Two other books, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, were published after she died. Her face is now on the new £10 note, reminding us every day how much her books have affected us all. Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) She was born into a wealthy family, which disapproved of her entering the nursing profession. After receiving a letter from the Secretary of War who asked her to put together a team and look after British soldiers during the Crimen War, she moved to London. This was the first time that women were allowed to serve in the army. She went home as a hero and even received a thank-you letter from Queen Victoria. She left a legacy in healthcare in the war. Marie Curie (1867-1934) One of the most famous scientists of all time comes in the form of Marie Curie. Together with her fellow scientist and husband Pierre, she made amazing work on their discoveries. In1903, they received a Nobel Prize. She won another Nobel Prize in 1911, the first woman to do so. The Curies were the pair who made discoveries on radioactivity, which paved the way for the creation of X-rays. Mother Teresa (1910-1997) In September 2016, Mother Teresa was announced to be named as a Saint, which she deserves after her devotion to helping people in poverty. In 1929, she traveled to India and dedicated her whole life to helping poor people, especially in the Indian city of Kolkata.

B Juleus Ghunta is a published children’s author and award-winning poet. But growing up, he could barely read. Ghunta’s family lived in a rural part of Western Jamaica. His mother often had to make tough choices about how to use their limited resources, including a decision to send his oldest sister to school. When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books. By the time he entered the sixth grade, he could spell his name, but he still couldn’t make out words or read with understanding. When Ghunta was about 12, a young teacher decided to start a special reading program for struggling students. Ghunta was the first student to sign up. The teacher was incredibly kind to him. She did not ask anything of Ghunta, except that he worked hard and believed in himself. Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction. He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry. Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.” 4. What caused Ghunta’s poor reading ability? A. Limited family resources. B. Early disinterest in reading. C. Lacking enough attention. D. Terrible memory. 5. Who inspired Ghunta greatly in his study?

His self-taught experience. 7. Which of the following can best describe Ghunta’s story? A. Reading helps people find happiness. B. Direction is the key to success. C. Poverty contributes to a person’s success. D. A teacher’s belief lights a student’s path. C Sensory-based food education given to 3 — 5-year-old children in the kindergarten increases their willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, according to a new study from the University of Eastern Finland. The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things. In the Sapere method, children are given an active role around food, and they are encouraged to share their sensory experiences. For example, kindergartens can introduce different vegetables and fruit to children. They can involve children in baking and cooking, and they can offer children opportunities to grow their own vegetables in the kindergarten backyard. Food-related themes can also be included in books and games. The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups. Some were offered sensory-based food education, while others weren’t. Children were offered a snack buffet containing different vegetables and fruit to choose from, and the researchers took photos of their plates to analyse their willingness to choose and eat these food items. The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit. This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help even out the dietary gap between families. “Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. Positive and personal food-related experiences gained in the kindergarten can help adjust dietary preferences in a direction that is beneficial to health. Dietary preferences learned in early childhood often stick with a person all the way to adolescence and adulthood. 8. What is the main focus of the new study? A. The relation between diet and health. B. The impact of family on food choices. C. The role of kindergartens in food education. D. The effectiveness of Sapere in food education. 9. How did the researchers conduct their research? A. By making a comparison. B. By analyzing the previous cases. C. By interviewing some children. D. By collecting the relevant data. 10. What do the underlined words “even out” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Measure. B. Narrow. C. Analyze. D. Update. 11. What’s Kähkönen’s attitude towards the Sapere method? A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Favorable. D. Unclear. D Red pandas live in high-altitude mild forests where they prefer to be near water and have access to bamboo. They are mostly active at dusk and dawn, and they sleep during most of the day. They rely on the trees for shelter, to escape from predators (捕食者), and to sunbathe in the winter. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. They need a lot of it to survive — around 2 kilograms each day. However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. When people move into the red panda’s area, they clear forests for housing and commercial development, farming and mining. Natural disasters such as landslides, floods; heavy snow and rainfall have also destroyed their habitats. Forest fires, invasive (侵入的) plant species, and issues with bamboo flowering (including the death of the plant) have similarly had effects on the red panda’s habitat. Species of bamboo are affected by forest fires and other environmental changes. As people move into the area, they often collect bamboo, leaving less for red pandas to eat. Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. According to the IUCN, China has 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitat in the country. There are at least 19 protected areas in India, five in Bhutan and three in Myanmar. The Red Panda Network is a nonprofit organization that protects red pandas and their habitat. They work with local community groups to establish wildlife feeding centers, train forest protectors to raise awareness about red pandas, and work with villagers to establish protected areas. The WWF is also working to protect red pandas and their habitats. Because more than a third of the potential habitat is in Nepal, the group works with yak herders (牦牛牧民) and other groups there to lower their effect on the red panda’s habitat. 12. Why is it challenging for red pandas to find enough food? A. Bamboo is not good enough. B. They are not active hunters. C. Their habitats are becoming smaller. D. There is a lack of water in their habitat. 13. What do the data in paragraph 4 mainly show? A. Global efforts to protect red pandas. B. Serious situations faced by red pandas. C. India’s deep protection of rare wildlife. D. China’s advantage in keeping red pandas. 14. What does the Red Panda Network do to protect red pandas? A. Force yak herders to move away. B. Advocate people to adopt them. C. Cooperate with local experts to do research. D. Work with communities to build wildlife feeding centers. 15. What’s a suitable title for this text? A The Key Points of Red Pandas’ Survival. B. The Influence of Natural Disasters on Bamboo. C. The Threat and Protection of Red Pandas. D. The Reason for the Disappearance of Bamboo. 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。 Anyone with a story to tell can write a book, either for their own enjoyment or to publish for all to see.

She walked out of the door to a classic Midwestern winter scene — the cloudy sky projecting a gray color on the already gray-white snow covering her car. After cleaning her windshield (挡风玻璃), Clevey got into her car and drove to a nearby gas station, where she fueled up, bought herself a cup of coffee, and set back off in the direction of the highway. But as she pulled out of the gas station, she crashed into another car. “The car was silver gray, so it blended (融入) into the skyline. But I also knew it was my fault. I was not being careful about it,” Clevey later recalled. “I was really scared because the driver’s side was damaged. This was frightening because I knew the driver was sitting there and that meant she was probably hurt.” Clevey, who had already been crying, got out of the car and started making her way to the car she hit, which was about 30 feet away. To her surprise, the driver, a woman a bit older than Clevey, looked completely unharmed. “I was 19 years old. This was such a scary thing that had happened, and I was the one who did it. I was very apologetic, but I was also just like a baby in that moment,” Clevey remembered. “And this woman, instead of shouting at me, comforted me in that moment, which I really needed.” After her tears stopped, Clevey asked the driver if she was OK. When the woman responded that she was fine, Clevey could hardly believe it. “I ran into your driver’s side. How could you be OK?” Clevey asked. The woman said that she had a prosthetic (假体的) arm made of metal. 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。 It turned out that the prosthetic arm protected her from the impact of the crash. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a while, the ambulance arrived at the scene. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
