Volunteering during the pandemic at a food shelter when she was just 14, she felt that something was missing from the donated groceries: fresh vegetables. “I thought it would be great to change that,” Lauren told the Washington Post, making a plan to grow and donate homegrown produce. This kind-hearted teen then told her parents of her wish to start a garden on part of their family farm in Dixon, Iowa, in order to supply local families in need with fresh produce including lettuce, carrots, tomatoes and zucchini. Lauren researched plants online, checking which species needed more shade, how much water was required, and about the best time to harvest each crop. This year, Lauren doubled the size of her garden to an acre, adding ten more plant varieties including herbs and cauliflower. In the past two years, this admirable high school junior has donated more than 3,175 kilograms of homegrown produce, with a value of $15,000 as reported on Inside Edition. She has also won the admiration of her community. Jenna Kingsley, a Future Farmers of America advisor at Lauren’s high school tells MSN that, “Her self-confidence and generous hand to help those in need has left an impact larger than she could have imagined.” 4. Why did Lauren start a garden on her family farm? A. To develop her personal hobby. B. To increase her family income. C. To run a food store in her community. D. To provide fresh produce for needy families. 5. What plant varieties did Lauren add to her garden this year? A. Herbs and zucchini. B. Herbs and cauliflower. C. Tomatoes and zucchini. D. Lettuce and cauliflower. 6. Which of the following can best describe Lauren? A. Brave and self-confident. B. Curious and hard-working. C. Generous and kind-hearted. D. Outgoing and open-minded. 7. Which of the following would be the best title for this article? A. A Teen Offers Tips to Grow a Family Garden B. A Teen Brings Fresh Vegetables to the Needy C. A Teen Sells Healthy Produce to the Community D. A Teen Learns to Plant Vegetables on Family Farm C Scientists are worried about the future of the axolotl, an unusual Mexican salamander (蝾螈), and they’re asking for help. A new program lets people “adopt” an axolotl to raise money to support efforts to save the endangered animal. The axolotl is a strange, but amazing animal, with a long body, short legs, and a long tail. Its body is covered with smooth, slimy skin. Axolotls are famous for their ability to cure themselves. If an axolotl loses a leg, or even part of its heart, brain, or lungs, it can regrow them. Scientists have long been interested in how the axolotl does this. Some people think the information could help solve some human medical problems. Sadly, axolotls are in trouble. The number of axolotls in Mexico has dropped 99.5% in less than 20 years. There are a number of reasons for the drop in axolotls. One is that the water in the lakes has become more and more polluted. Another is that there are invasive (入侵的) fish in the lakes which are eating the axolotls’ food, and even their babies. Scientists at Mexico’s National Autonomous University (UNAM) have been working for years to try to protect the axolotls. Last year, the UNAM scientists started a program they called “AdoptAxolotl”. They asked people to donate money to help pay for efforts to save the axolotls. The program was a big hit, and raised more than $26,000. The money was used to help clean up some of Mexican lakes and for a program to raise axolotls in a safe environment. Besides, people were encouraged to pay $30 to virtually (虚拟的) “adopt” one of the animals for a month or pay for food for an axolotl. 8 What do we know about the axolotls from paragraph 2? A. They can live without hearts or lungs. B. They have short bodies and long legs. C. They can solve some human problems. D. They have the ability to cure themselves. 9. What has caused the drop of the axolotls’ population? A. Water pollution. B. Habitat loss. C. Invasive disease. D. Serious overfishing. 10. What do the underlined words “a big hit” most probably mean? A A great success. B. A big mistake. C. A complete failure. D. A total imagination. 11. Why did the UNAM scientists start the “AdoptAxolotl” program? A. To let people clean up Mexican lakes. B. To get money for scientists’ own projects. C. To raise money to help axolotls live better. D. To encourage people to take axolotls home. D Civita, the dying town Some 120 kilometers north of Rome, street signs along the road tell drivers they’re bound for “the dying town” Civita di Bagnoregio. The village stands on a declining plateau(高原). It has gone through landslides(泥石流), earthquakes, and erosion (腐蚀) since humans’ first settlement about 2, 500 years ago. Nowadays Civita has been reduced to only 90 by 150 meters. In the Middle Ages, the size of the plateau was three times its size nowadays, and the population was over 3, 000, yet the river surrounding Civita gradually made the town collapse from the bottom up. Since 1695, when a destructive earthquake took place in Civita, many people were forced to escape from their hometown, and the population there has never recovered. By the 1920s, there were merely 600 residents in the town. Currently, there are only about 10 residents. What a small population it has! The survival of Civita is uncertain. However, as the news that the town was about to disappear started to widely spread, more and more people wanted to visit it. Now up to 10,000 people visit Civita per day. And there is doubt as to whether it is dying. The flood of people and money leads to natives longing for the rescue of the town. Yet the actual situation in Civita is that there are no grocery stores, hardware, or convenience stores. People living there can only have access to a handful of restaurants and tourist shops. Besides, they have to get supplies through a narrow, 300-meter-long bridge that connects them to the outside world. Today, Civita is pursuing a UNESCO World Heritage designation, in order to earn official recognition of its landscape and adaptability to nature. Recently, the town presented a 242-page document to the UNESCO, hoping that it will help strengthen Civita’s role as a site of historical and cultural significance. Also, Civitas UNESCO team plans to create tourist attractions in the surrounding towns. If Civita recovers successfully, other towns in the same situation could find a direction based on its experience. 12. What has made Civita become smaller? A. The inconvenient transport. B. The natural conditions. C The settlement of humans. D. The decrease of the population. 13. Why do so many visitors flood in Civita every day? A. Because they want to rescue it. B. Because they are attracted by its scenery. C. Because they are interested in its natives. D. Because they want to catch the last chance to see it. 14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The stores in the town. B. The daily activities of local people. C. The appearance of the town. D. The living conditions in the town. 15. Which word can best describe the possible future of Civita? A. Unchangeable. B. Hopeful. C. Disappointing. D. Doubtful. 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。 Many campers (露营者) love to plan their trips during autumn season.

David was afraid of being made fun of, but his parents encouraged him to face everything bravely. When he began school, other kids didn’t want to be his friends because of his scars. Luckily, a girl named Angel offered to sit with him and helped him go through that difficult time. They became good friends, chatting happily and sharing what they were interested in. As time went by, David’s excellent learning ability and kind behavior made him popular with the students. Since David was good at science, his classmates would turn to him for help whenever they had problems with their studies. David was always glad to help them. On Halloween, a variety of holiday activities were held on campus. Everyone wore costumes (化装服) they liked. David wore a mask (面具), and no one could tell it was him. Unrecognized, David was walking through the classroom backdoor when he overheard his classmate Tom’s comment, “David’s face is the ugliest one I have ever seen.” Hearing this, David felt upset and depressed.

A new program lets people “adopt” an axolotl to raise money to support efforts to save the endangered animal. The axolotl is a strange, but amazing animal, with a long body, short legs, and a long tail. Its body is covered with smooth, slimy skin. Axolotls are famous for their ability to cure themselves. If an axolotl loses a leg, or even part of its heart, brain, or lungs, it can regrow them. Scientists have long been interested in how the axolotl does this. Some people think the information could help solve some human medical problems. Sadly, axolotls are in trouble. The number of axolotls in Mexico has dropped 99.5% in less than 20 years. There are a number of reasons for the drop in axolotls. One is that the water in the lakes has become more and more polluted. Another is that there are invasive (入侵) fish in the lakes which are eating the axolotls’ food, and even their babies. Scientists at Mexico’s National Autonomous University (UNAM) have been working for years to try to protect the axolotls. Last year, the UNAM scientists started a program they called “AdoptAxolotl”. They asked people to donate money to help pay for efforts to save the axolotls. The program was a big hit, and raised more than $26,000. The money was used to help clean up some of Mexican lakes and for a program to raise axolotls in a safe environment. Besides, people were encouraged to pay $30 to virtually (虚拟的) “adopt” one of the animals for a month or pay for food for an axolotl. 8. What do we know about the axolotls from paragraph 2? A. They can live without hearts or lungs. B. They have short bodies and long legs. C. They can solve some human problems. D. They have the ability to cure themselves. 9. What has caused the drop of the axolotls’ population? A. Water pollution. B. Habitat loss. C. Invasive disease. D. Serious overfishing. 10. What do the underlined words “a big hit” most probably mean? A. A great success. B. A big mistake. C. A complete failure. D. A total imagination. 11. Why did the UNAM scientists start the “AdoptAxolotl” program? A. To let people clean up Mexican lakes. B. To get money for scientists’ own projects. C. To raise money to help axolotls live better. D. To encourage people to take axolotls home. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了墨西哥蝾螈具有很高的科学研究价值，但是目前处于濒危状态，墨西哥国立自治大学的科学家们启动计划筹集资金拯救蝾螈。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“If an axolotl loses a leg, or even part of its heart, brain, or lungs, it can regrow them.”（如果蝾螈失去了一条腿，甚至是心脏、大脑或肺的一部分，它们都可以重新长出来。）可知，蝾螈有自愈功能。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“ There are a number of reasons for the drop in axolotls. One is that the water in the lakes has become more and more polluted.”（造成美西螈数量减少的原因有很多。一个是湖泊中的水已经变得越来越污染。”可知，湖泊中的水污染是造成蝾螈数量减少的原因之一。故选A项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段划线短语后“raised more than $26,000”（筹集了26000多美元）推断出筹款项目很成功，A项“一次巨大的成功”和短语a big hit意思相近，符合句意。故选A项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Last year, the UNAM scientists started a program they called “AdoptAxolotl”. They asked people to donate money to help pay for efforts to save the axolotls.”（去年，墨西哥国立自治大学的科学家们启动了一个名为“AdoptAxolotl”的项目。他们要求人们捐款来帮助拯救蝾螈。）可知，墨西哥国立自治大学的科学家们启动计划是为了筹集资金拯救蝾螈。故选C项。 D Civita, the dying town Some 120 kilometers north of Rome, street signs along the road tell drivers they’re bound for “the dying town” Civita di Bagnoregio. The village stands on a declining plateau(高原). It has gone through landslides(泥石流), earthquakes, and erosion (腐蚀) since humans’ first settlement about 2, 500 years ago. Nowadays Civita has been reduced to only 90 by 150 meters. In the Middle Ages, the size of the plateau was three times its size nowadays, and the population was over 3, 000, yet the river surrounding Civita gradually made the town collapse from the bottom up. Since 1695, when a destructive earthquake took place in Civita, many people were forced to escape from their hometown, and the population there has never recovered. By the 1920s, there were merely 600 residents in the town. Currently, there are only about 10 residents. What a small population it has! The survival of Civita is uncertain. However, as the news that the town was about to disappear started to widely spread, more and more people wanted to visit it. Now up to 10,000 people visit Civita per day. And there is doubt as to whether it is dying. The flood of people and money leads to natives longing for the rescue of the town. Yet the actual situation in Civita is that there are no grocery stores, hardware, or convenience stores. People living there can only have access to a handful of restaurants and tourist shops. Besides, they have to get supplies through a narrow, 300-meter-long bridge that connects them to the outside world. Today, Civita is pursuing a UNESCO World Heritage designation, in order to earn official recognition of its landscape and adaptability to nature. Recently, the town presented a 242-page document to the UNESCO, hoping that it will help strengthen Civita’s role as a site of historical and cultural significance. Also, Civitas UNESCO team plans to create tourist attractions in the surrounding towns. If Civita recovers successfully, other towns in the same situation could find a direction based on its experience. 12. What has made Civita become smaller? A. The inconvenient transport. B. The natural conditions. C. The settlement of humans. D. The decrease of the population. 13. Why do so many visitors flood in Civita every day? A. Because they want to rescue it. B. Because they are attracted by its scenery. C. Because they are interested in its natives. D. Because they want to catch the last chance to see it. 14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The stores in the town. B. The daily activities of local people. C. The appearance of the town. D. The living conditions in the town. 15. Which word can best describe the possible future of Civita? A. Unchangeable. B. Hopeful. C. Disappointing. D. Doubtful. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述是一个快要消失的城镇——Civita。文中叙述了城镇消失的主要原因、城里的生活状况以及Civita正在寻求联合国教科文组织的世界遗产认定，以获得官方对其景观和自然适应性的认可。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The village stands on a declining plateau(高原). It has gone through landslides(泥石流), earthquakes, and erosion (腐蚀) since humans’ first settlement about 2, 500 years ago. Nowadays Civita has been reduced to only 90 by 150 meters.”（这个村庄坐落在一个逐渐下降的高原上。自2500年前人类第一次定居以来，这里经历了山体滑坡、地震和侵蚀。现在Civita已经缩小到只有90乘150米。）由此可知，“自然条件”让Civita变得更小。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The survival of Civita is uncertain. However, as the news that the town was about to disappear started to widely spread, more and more people wanted to visit it. Now up to 10,000 people visit Civita per day. And there is doubt as to whether it is dying.”（Civita的生存是不确定的。然而，随着小镇即将消失的消息开始广泛传播，越来越多的人想去参观它。现在，每天有多达1万人访问Civita。人们怀疑它是否正在消失。）由此可知，每天之所以都有这么多游客涌入Civita，是因为他们想抓住最后的机会去看。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Yet the actual situation in Civita is that there are no grocery stores, hardware, or convenience stores. People living there can only have access to a handful of restaurants and tourist shops. Besides, they have to get supplies through a narrow, 300-meter-long bridge that connects them to the outside world.”（然而Civita的实际情况是没有杂货店、五金店或便利店。住在那里的人只能去几家餐馆和旅游商店。此外，他们还必须通过一座连接他们与外部世界的300米长的狭窄桥梁来获取物资。）由此可知，第四段讲述的是“城里的生活状况”。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Today, Civita is pursuing a UNESCO World Heritage designation, in order to earn official recognition of its landscape and adaptability to nature. Recently, the town presented a 242-page document to the UNESCO, hoping that it will help strengthen Civita’s role as a site of historical and cultural significance. Also, Civitas UNESCO team plans to create tourist attractions in the surrounding towns.”（今天，Civita正在寻求联合国教科文组织的世界遗产认定，以获得官方对其景观和自然适应性的认可。最近，该镇向联合国教科文组织提交了一份242页的文件，希望它能帮助加强Civita作为一个具有历史和文化意义的遗址的作用。此外，Civitas的联合国教科文组织团队计划在周边城镇创建旅游景点。）由此可知， Civita的未来是“充满希望的”。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。 Many campers (露营者) love to plan their trips during autumn season.

When 4 years old, David got his face burnt by hot water, leaving scars (伤疤) on his cheeks. David was home-schooled by his mother, but as he grew older, his parents decided to send him to a private school. David was afraid of being made fun of, but his parents encouraged him to face everything bravely. When he began school, other kids didn’t want to be his friends because of his scars. Luckily, a girl named Angel offered to sit with him and helped him go through that difficult time. They became good friends, chatting happily and sharing what they were interested in. As time went by, David’s excellent learning ability and kind behavior made him popular with the students. Since David was good at science, his classmates would turn to him for help whenever they had problems with their studies. David was always glad to help them. On Halloween, a variety of holiday activities were held on campus. Everyone wore costumes (化装服) they liked. David wore a mask (面具), and no one could tell it was him. Unrecognized, David was walking through the classroom backdoor when he overheard his classmate Tom’s comment, “David’s face is the ugliest one I have ever seen.” Hearing this, David felt upset and depressed. He ran away secretly. Angel happened to stand behind David and saw what happened, but it was too late to stop it. As David’s best friend at school, Angel thought David was a good boy who should be treated kindly. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After thinking for a while, Angel walked up to Tom. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tom decided to say sorry to David. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】After thinking for a while, Angel walked up to Tom. With a trembling voice, Angel told Tom his behavior was rude and did serious harm to David. However, Tom said that he was telling the truth. A wave of annoyance flooded over Angel. She reminded Tom how David helped him with his physics. “David is always helping us solve problems. We shouldn’t judge people by their appearance,” added Angel. Hearing Angel’s words, Tom remembered the scene where David helped him with his study patiently. Ashamed and guilty, he realized what he did was wrong. Tom decided to say sorry to David. He went to David and apologized for his rude and wrong behavior sincerely. With his head down, tears welled up his eyes. David accepted Tom’s apology, and hugged him tightly. At that time, Angel and other classmates also came. They expressed their gratitude and appreciation to David, hoping David would help them like before. So moved and excited was David that tears rolled down on his cheeks. David nodded with delight. What is beauty? The beauty of soul is the real beauty. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了David4岁时被热水烫伤了在脸颊上留下了疤痕，后来他去私立学校上学，当他开始上学时，因为他身上的伤疤，其他孩子都不想和他交朋友，但是有一个叫Angel的女孩和他成了好朋友，大卫擅长理科，很乐意帮助同学们，万圣节那天大卫无意中听到同学汤姆说他丑，Angel认为David是个好孩子，应该善待他。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“想了一会儿，安吉尔走向汤姆。”可知，第一段可描写安吉尔劝说汤姆，让汤姆意识到自己的错误。 ②由第二段首句内容“汤姆决定向大卫道歉。”可知，第二段可描写汤姆道歉和其他同学都接受了大卫。 2.续写线索：Angel指出汤姆的不对——Angel提醒汤姆大卫帮过他——汤姆意识到自己错了——汤姆道歉——大卫接受汤姆的道歉——同学们向大卫表示感激——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize.../be aware that... ②道歉：apologize for.../make an apology for ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①感动：moved/touched ②兴奋：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] Hearing Angel’s words, Tom remembered the scene where David helped him with his study patiently.
