W:Good morning,everyone!I'm Judy,the new manager of the Clark Sports Center.Our sports center was due to open on May 5th,but we had a problem with the roof.So it will actually open on May 12th.I do hope as many people's as possible will come and join our party on the same day.The party starts at 10 o'clock.We offer a variety of sports here.You can pay for membership for a week,a month or a year.For a year's membership it costs £ 450,monthly membership is £ 40 and if you pay weekly,it will cost you £ 10.So you save money by paying for a whole year.You need to wear training shoes and suitable clothes,but you don't need to bring a towel.That saves carrying a huge bag around with you.We are very lucky to have Sonia Smith joining us,who is going to give dance classes daily at 5:30.We will also have Tai Chi,Yoga and Pilates.You'd better check on our website to get more information about these classes.So that's all I have to say for the moment.

Quick,what's seven times seven plus ten? If you can tell Ahmed “Medy” Alwan,a cashier at the Lucky Candy bodega in the Bronx,you could get all the snacks your heart desires.For the past couple weeks,the 20-year-old has been quizzing customers on basic math equations.When a customer gets one right,they get five(well,more like ten)seconds to grab whatever they want in the deli.
For Ahmed“Medy”Alwan,23,joy is as essential as breakfast—and customers at his family's corner store sometimes struggle for both.So he came up with a clever way to brighten his customers' days.“I've always helped out people in the neighborhood,”he says.“They've known me since I was a little kid.I know half of them by name.And,you know,sometimes they need credit.”
Lucky Candy is located on a busy street in the Bronx,which is what's known as a food desert,where affordable,healthy food is scarce.Many residents rely on neighborhood shops like Lucky Candy for their daily needs.
Enter the bodega challenge on the social media.Whenever a resident gets an answer right,one of two things usually happens.Some kids dart for the candy,and who could blame them? Others grab things like rice,oranges,and potatoes,clearly thinking of the family at home.
“They're doing something good,”Berto,a student who stopped in after school,told Inside Edition.“Here,we see a lot of people who don't even have anything.”
Alwan covers the sprees with his paycheck.But his boss,as known as his father,Saleh Aobad,doesn't mind chipping in too.A Yemeni immigrant,Aobad knows that in one of the toughest,most competitive places in the U.S.,a bit of help goes a long way.
“This changed our relationship with the community big time,”says Alwan.“They're showing so much love,and they're lining up at the store for a chance to play.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Ahmed“Medy”Alwan在布朗克斯区的一个店中开展的挑战活动。
24.What inspired Ahmed“Medy”Alwan to come up with the bodega challenge?
A.His love for math.
B.His kindness and generosity.
C.His passion for healthy food.
D.His interest in food deserts.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中“If you can tell Ahmed ‘Medy’Alwan,a cashier at the Lucky Candy bodega in the Bronx,you could get all the snacks your heart desires.”、第二段中“‘I've always helped out people in the neighborhood,’he says.”及“And,you know,sometimes they need credit.”可知,他的善良和慷慨启发了Alwan提出了杂货店挑战。故选B项。
25.Why do the residents in the Bronx neighborhood rely on shops like Lucky Candy?
A.For their daily math challenges.
B.For family groceries.
C.For organizing community events.
D.For providing credit services.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中“Many residents rely on neighborhood shops like Lucky Candy for their daily needs.”可知,布朗克斯区被称为食物荒漠,居民们往往依赖像Lucky Candy 这样的社区杂货店满足他们的日常需求。故选B项。
26.Who usually participate in the bodega challenge at Lucky Candy?
A.Adults from the neighborhood.
B.Students who perform well in mathematics.
C.Customers needing food for families.
D.Candy enthusiasts.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中“Some kids dart for the candy,and who could blame them? Others grab things like rice,oranges,and potatoes,clearly thinking of the family at home.”可知,当顾客回答正确时,一些孩子会冲向糖果,而其他人则拿一些食物,例如大米、橙子和土豆,显然是为了家人。由此可知,经常参加幸运糖果杂货店挑战的人就是需要家庭食物的顾客。故选C项。
27.How has the bodega challenge impacted Ahmed“Medy”Alwan's relationship with the community?
A.It has created competition among community members.
B.It has strained his relationship with his father.
C.It has increased affection and support from the community.
D.It has led to financial difficulties for the store.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“‘This changed our relationship with the community big time,’ says Alwan.‘They're showing so much love,and they're lining up at the store for a chance to play.’”可知,这个挑战改变了Alwan与社区的关系,并且社区给予了他们更多的爱与支持。故选C项。

(2023·南京市重点中学高二期中联考)
Once upon a time,science fiction was just a style among other styles.There were crime stories,there were horror stories,there was literary fiction,and there was science fiction.But today science themes dominate other styles.It's difficult to think of much modern crime,horror or“serious”fiction that doesn't involve science.
And it's not just books.With every second movie and computer game having a sci-fi element,science fiction seems to have controlled our entire entertainment culture.It's clear that if we want to define science fiction,we should relate it to the role that science plays in our lives.
Although some experts have claimed to be able to trace sci-fi back to ancient times,it is more reasonable to find it in initial form in the 19th century,when industrial societies arose.One of the features that set industrial societies apart from other kinds was the increasing part that science played in everyday life.Factories with vast machines turned out huge quantities of goods,which were transported by trains,motor vehicles and ships all over the world.Cities were built on the back of technology,with electricity in homes and hospitals helping everyone to lead healthier,more convenient lives.All of these changes had great effects not only on people's real lives,but on their imaginative ones.
Writers began to describe these changing physical and mental landscapes,eventually giving science fiction a large and devoted fan base of especially young readers,who found that it spoke to their curiosity about the future that science would create.
But sci-fiction reflected fears for science rather than hopes.These typical early science fiction novels might be a UK novel like H.G.Wells' The War of the Worlds(1897).With great skill,Wells played upon the fears of technology by imagining Earth under threat by a civilization—that of men from Mars.
The science fiction of today expresses the impact of the computing revolution,robotics and our environmental challenges,while it is less concerned with“little green men from Mar”and other themes of past sci-fiction.
Given that science,technology and polities are always intertwined,contemporary science fiction often has a great deal to say about power.Many recent novels—like American Cory Doctorow's Little Brother (2008 )—are concerned with government and security service“conspiracies(阴谋)”against the people,particularly as the revelations of whistle blowers like Edward Snowden sink in.This can give sci-fi writing a“skeptical (怀疑的)”feel.
This underlines one of the features that remains constant between the beginnings of the empire of science fiction and its state today.
As then,so now: We want to read about how fearful the future will be,not how it will be a paradise.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科幻小说对其他文体的影响,并介绍了其起源以及现代科幻小说与以前的不同。
28.What can we know according to the first paragraph?
A.Science fiction used to take the leadership in literature.
B.Horror stories and literary fiction have initiated science fiction.
C.Modern fiction reflects the influence of science.
D.Science fiction is the dominant literature style at the present time.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“But today science themes dominate other styles.It's difficult to think of much modern crime,horror or ‘serious’ fiction that doesn't involve science.”可知,现代小说受到了科学的影响。
29.What caused science fiction to appear in the 19th century?
A.The curiosity of young readers about the future.
B.The changes that the industrial revolution brought about.
C.People's stretched imagination affected by their real life.
D.People's fears for science rather than hopes.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Although some experts have claimed to be able to trace sci-fi back ...when industrial societies arose.”和“All of these changes had great effects not only on people's real lives,but on their imaginative ones.”可知,工业革命带来的变化促使科幻小说出现在19世纪。
30.According to the passage,what do we know about the early science fiction?
A.It aroused people's curiosity about science in daily life.
B.It intensified people's worries about the social problems.
C.It promoted people's understanding of the true value of science.
D.It conveyed an atmosphere of imaginary anxieties to people.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的“But sci-fiction reflected...that of men from Mars.”可知,早期的科幻小说向人们传达了一种假想的焦虑气氛。
31.What's the main idea of the passage?
A.The impact of science fiction.
B.The development of science fiction.
C.The content of science fiction.
D.The characteristic of science fiction.
答案:B
解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章介绍了科幻小说对其他文体的影响,并介绍了其起源以及现代科幻小说与以前的不同,因此本文主要介绍了科幻小说的发展。

(2024·北京通州期末)
Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流).Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment.However,ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way—studying movements of random floating garbage (垃圾).As a scientist with many years' experience,he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States.There were so many shoes that people were setting up trading markets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.
Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes—about 60,000 in total—fell into the ocean in a shipping accident.He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.As expected,the company told him that they didn't.Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment.If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed,he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.
The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻) because winds and currents join here,and as a result,there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area.Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in amassing information about where the shoes landed.In a year he gathered reliable information on 1,600 shoes.With this data,he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents,and publish the findings of their study.
As the result of his work,Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean.He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts,with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand.They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了海洋专家 Curtis Ebbesmeyer通过追踪随机漂浮垃圾的运动轨迹这种特殊的方式来研究洋流。
32.What did Ebbesmeyer phone the shoe company to find out?
A.How much they lost in the shipping accident.
B.Whether it was all right to use their shoes.
C.When and where the shoes went missing.
D.What caused the shipping accident.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段可知,Ebbesmeyer打电话给该公司想弄清他们是否想要回这些鞋子,得到“不想要回”的答复之后, Ebbesmeyer决定利用这些鞋子做实验。因此Ebbesmeyer 打电话的目的是确定自己是否有权使用这些鞋子。故选B。
33.What does the underlined word“amassing”mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Collecting. B.Offering.
C.Creating. D.Using.
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词前后文的内容可知, Ebbesmeyer认识了海滩拾荒者中的很多人,并请求他们帮助收集有关鞋子落在哪里的信息。在一年的时间里,他收集了1 600双鞋子的可靠信息。由此可知,amassing的意思是“收集”,与 collecting意思相近。故选A。
34.How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?
A.By searching the web for models of ocean currents.
B.By studying the shoes found by beachcombers.
C.By researching data of ocean currents in the library.
D.By collecting information from beachcombers.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,在一年内,他收集了1 600双鞋子的可靠信息。有了这些数据,他和一位同事能够测试和改进一个用于模拟洋流的计算机程序,并发表了他们的研究结果。由此可推知,Ebbesmeyer是通过收集这些来自海滩拾荒者关于鞋子的信息来验证并得到研究结果的。故选D。
35.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A.To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.
B.To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.
C.To call people's attention to ocean pollution.
D.To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.
答案:B
解析:写作目的题。根据第一段中的内容“今天,科学家们正在努力研究洋流。大多数人使用卫星和其他高科技设备。然而,海洋专家Curtis Ebbesmeyer采用追踪随机漂浮垃圾的运动轨迹这种特殊的方式来研究洋流。”可知,作者写这篇文章的目的是阐述一种特殊的研究洋流的方式。故选B。

Teenagers' fitness is now a major concern and physical exercise is very important. 36 Exercise makes your body strong and helps you to keep the right body weight.Sports scientists offer the following advice to teenagers:“ 37 Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier.”
38 “Overweight”means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem.“Inactive”means that the person does not join in many physical activities,but is not seriously overweight.“Active”refers to people who participate in sports and other physical activities,but do not have a high fitness level.
According to experts,overweight teenagers should work out to keep healthy.Ride a bike,play volleyball or basketball for a while,and go for a twenty-minute walk each day.All these will help to burn calories.Inactive teenagers should do similar activities,but add some bending and stretching exercises,such as push-ups and sit-ups,starting with twenty of each a day.Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger. 39
Experts also suggest one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercises,together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. 40 Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase people's strength and safety.
A.It's time to take part in sports.
B.It reduces stress and improves fitness.
C.Sports can make your life more colorful.
D.First,find out your present level of fitness.
E.The same rule is also suitable for active teenagers.

(2023·浙江省十二校月考)
My great-grandmother Eileen is fierce,loyal and strong and a bit of a legend in her own lifetime,which now stretches to 92 years.I should add that we're not allowed to call her Gran,because she says it makes her feel old.
That summer,I lost my job and felt hopeless.One day,I paid a visit to her.She picked up a box which she placed on the coffee table.“There you go,” she said.“You do know what you're doing with these things,don't you?”
It was a new phone.Her current mobile was pretty ancient.I was amazed it was still going.
“Yes,” I said.
“Good.That's why I ask you.You young people know more about such things than us oldies.You can take it home with you and get it all set up,” she went on.“Then,when you bring it back,you can show me how to use my new phone,such as getting on the Internet,sending e-mails and so on.” She smiled so sweetly that I felt a surge of love for her.
I grabbed the box and stood up.Setting up the phone would be easy.It was teaching her how to use it that may prove challenging.
The following day I headed back to my great-grandmother's with the phone.“Here's your phone.It's all ready to use.”
For the next hour,I was busy setting up her passcode and fingerprint recognition,which she said was like something out of James Bond.
She chose a picture for her screen and it was all going so well until I tried to show her how to swipe (滑动屏幕).“What do you mean,swipe?” she asked.She was 92;I reminded myself.This had been tiring for her.
She pressed at the up arrow and got angry when nothing happened.When I finally got her to swipe,she didn't put the right amount of pressure on and the menu slipped away.After what seemed like hours,she threw the phone across the room and it landed on the sofa.“Take it away!” she howled.“I want my old phone back!”
I picked up the phone and was about to leave to give her time to cool down when I realized I didn't want to go home when she was angry and upset.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
“Come on,Eileen.One more try.” I said.
I was not feeling so hopeless any more now.
[参考范文]
“Come on,Eileen.One more try.” I said.“This time I'll hold your finger and show you how much pressure to use.Guess what.It took me a while to get the hang of swiping.” added I.I held her finger gently and her face lit up when the menu appeared.“I want a selfie with you.Show me how to use the camera!” My heart sank a bit,but she didn't need a lot of help and we sent her friend Emily a photo of us both laughing.“I can't wait to show everyone my new phone,” she said happily.“Thank you for your patience,Tom.”
I was not feeling so hopeless any more now.Great-grandma's spirit inspired me greatly.It occurred to me that if a 92-year-old lady could learn new skills,then so could I.I had no doubt that I would find something I liked even more.There must be a job out there for me somewhere and I was sure to find it.I headed for home with a smile on my face and a whole lot of love for my amazing great-grandmother.My great-grandmother would always be a role model for me to learn from.
