Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
(2024·湖北省荆州市高二上期末)
When most kids go to the beach,they’re too focused on making sandcastles
and splashing around to notice litter,but several years ago,for 7-year-old Cash Daniels,noticing a plastic straw sparked a lifelong passion for saving the planet.
Cash,who is now known as the “conservation kid”,has always loved nature.He grew up fishing along the Chattanooga River,after all! But once he learned that 80 percent of all trash from land and rivers ends up in the ocean,he couldn’t sit back.
He started with cleanups along the river,something that quickly went from a family affair to a community effort with volunteers and neighbors.In 2019,Cash,together with a Canadian conservationist,Ella Galaski-Rossen,started a nonprofit called the Cleanup Kids.Despite living in different countries,they managed to create educational videos on their YouTube channel.“We hope to be a really big nonprofit that eliminates plastic in the U.S. and Canada,” Cash said.“We want to inform kids and adults in the landlocked states on how their actions are connected to the water and the ocean,” Cash said.
Cash was selected as one of America’s top 10 youth volunteers of 2021 by the Prudential Spirit of Community Awards.He also earned the title of National
Honoree,where he received a $5,000 grant to go to a nonprofit of his choice,and he became the first person to win the Youth Conservationist Award two years in a row from the Tennessee Wildlife Federation.
“I want to travel the world,teach others,and help them feel connected to the ocean.Because if you are connected to the ocean—if you love it and what lives in it—you’ll want to protect it,”he said.“This is my fun,and it becomes
more fun with every new discovery.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是Cash Daniels热爱大自然,他从7岁开始就对保护地球充满了热情,他先从清理河流沿岸开始,并将此发展成一项人们可以广泛参与的活动。他被评选为2021年美国十大青年志愿者之一。
词义猜测题。根据文章第二段画线词之前“He grew up fishing along the Chattanooga River,after all! But once he learned that 80 percent of all trash from land and rivers ends up in the ocean,he couldn’t”以及第三段开头 “He started with cleanups along the river,something that quickly went from a family affair to a community effort with volunteers and neighbors.”可知当Cash Daniels看到并了解到80%来自陆地和河流的垃圾最终都进入了海洋以后,他开始对河流岸边的垃圾进行了清理,最终这件事成为了人们可以广泛参与的活动,由此可以推测Cash Daniels对于最终都进入了海洋的垃圾没有置之不理,而是采取了积极的行动。故选C项。
1.Which can replace the underlined words “sit back” in Paragraph 2?
A.Fall asleep. B.Lose heart.
C.Turn a blind eye. D.Lend a hand.
√
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“‘We want to inform kids and adults in the landlocked states on how their actions are connected to the water and the ocean,’Cash said.”可知the Cleanup Kids的目的是让内陆各州的孩子和成年人了解他们的行为与水和海洋的关系,即呼吁人们保护海洋。故选D项。
2.What is the purpose of starting the Cleanup Kids?
A.To recycle waste plastics.
B.To make instructive videos.
C.To spread marine knowledge.
D.To appeal for ocean protection.
√
推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知Cash热爱大自然,关心环境,所以他是富有同情心的。根据文章最后一段内容可知Cash想要环游世界,教育别人,帮助他们感受到与海洋的联系,所以他是有奉献精神的。故选A项。
3.Which of the following best describes Cash Daniels?
A.Sympathetic and devoted.
B.Initiative and talented.
C.Ambitious and humorous.
D.Determined and modest.
√
推理判断题。根据文章内容可知一根塑料吸管激发了Cash拯救地球的热情而这种热情进而转化成了他的梦想,所以Cash 的故事暗示了激情可以点燃梦想。故选A项。
4.What does Cash Daniels’ story imply?
A.Passion fuels dreams.
B.Great minds think alike.
C.Helping others is of great fun.
D.Actions speak louder than words.

(2024·山东省枣庄市高二上期末)
Laughter has long been known as a universal language that can bring people closer together.However,not many people know that it can also cause physical pain.“Hah! I’ve been fooled!” said Bob as he realized he had fallen victim to one of Alice’s practical jokes.Bob’s upper back is in pain where Alice patted and a burning sensation shoots up to his head.
Is laughter always good for our health? A new study suggests that while laughing does cause the release of “happy hormones” in the brain,it can also lead to discomfort in the upper body.The study,led by Professor Wang from the Beijing-based Center for Cognitive Neuroscience,involved 300 healthy
participants,aged between 20 and 45 years old.Half of them were exposed to laughter,while the other half were not.
The study found that those who were exposed to laughter reported feeling more social connection and happiness than those who were not.However,the laughing group also reported experiencing more discomfort in their upper backs and heads.“Laughter can bring people closer together,but it can also activate the stretch receptors (伸展感受器) in the diaphragm (横膈膜),causing discomfort,” said Wang in an interview.
Previous research has linked laughter to improved immunity (免疫力),lower blood pressure,and overall well-being.Laughter has also been shown to improve the function of mitochondria (线粒体),which are the energy factories
inside cells.However,like any other physical activity,laughing too much can also cause tiredness and shortness of breath.“Moderation (适度) is key,that is,you can’t laugh too much.” said Professor Xu from Shanghai Jiao Tong University,who was not involved in the study.“While laughter is good for us,we should also be mindful of how much we laugh.”
The findings of the study suggest that the health benefits of laughter are not automatic;rather,they require a balance between enjoyment and awareness of discomfort.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明笑也会给人类的身体健康带来负面作用,我们要找到笑与舒适之间的平衡点。
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“However,not many people know that... burning sensation shoots up to his head.”和第二段首句可知,第一段描述Bob的经历是为了引出笑也会给人类的身体健康带来负面作用这个话题。故选B项。
5.What’s the function of Bob’s experience in Paragraph 1?
A.To explain a concept.
B.To introduce the topic.
C.To show a public concern.
D.To describe a vivid story.
√
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However,the laughing group also reported experiencing more discomfort in their upper backs and heads.”可知,人们在笑的时候更可能会感觉不舒服。故选B项。
6.What can we learn from Professor Wang’s study?
A.People are too happy to be exposed to laughter.
B.People are likely to feel discomfort while laughing.
C.Laughing more is beneficial to improving our health.
D.Laughing is the best way to become socially connected.
√
段落大意题。根据第四段中的“However,like any other physical activity...who was not involved in the study.”可知,本段的主旨大意为“适度笑的重要性”。故选C项。
7.What does Paragraph 4 mainly discuss?
A.The health benefits of laughter.
B.The side effects of never laughing.
C.The importance of moderation in laughing.
D.The connection between laughter and discomfort.
√
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,笑带来的健康益处不是自动的,而是需要在愉快和意识到不舒服之间找一个平衡点,可知,我们有必要在欢笑和安慰之间取得平衡。故选D项。
8.What does the last paragraph suggest?
A.Laughter can help us stay healthy automatically.
B.Laughter definitely goes hand in hand with discomfort.
C.We should laugh more to keep ourselves joyful and healthy.
D.It’s necessary for us to strike a balance between laughter and comfort.

Live Long and Prosper
You can’t avoid getting old.But the decisions you make now about how you spend your day will have a great impact on the quality of your life.
We collected the latest research and talked to health,financial,and wellness experts to uncover the most important things you can do to keep the spring in your step and a healthy balance in your bank account through the years. 1 .
Be grateful
Write down three things you’re grateful for each day. 2 Studies show that people who are grateful report better sleep,stronger relationships,fewer aches and pains,and lower blood pressure.Shawn Achor and Michelle Gielan,happiness researchers who are married to each other,share positive things about their days with one another.“It’s a simple two-minute habit that allows us to learn about high moments and feel more connected,” Gielan says.
3 .
Going outside,especially into a green space,is an easy way to improve your well-being and mental state,says Lori Gottlieb,a psychotherapist and the author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone.“I actually make it a point to go outside every day,” she says.“I’ll walk around the block,breathe,and look at the sky.It’s like pushing the reset button.” 4 Researchers from University of Alabama found that spending just 20 minutes in a park led to a 64 percent increase in life satisfaction—even if you just sit on a bench.
Get moving
Yes,you’ve heard it before,but decades of research show that exercise improves your health,lifts your mood,and lengthens your life.In fact,Harvard researchers found that as little as 15 minutes of moderate physical activity a day can increase your life span by three years. 5 Ball State University researchers found that people in their 70s who were lifelong exercisers were indistinguishable in many ways from healthy people 30 years younger.
Simple as these tips are,they have proven to be very useful if carried out on a regular basis.To live long and prosper,you always have a choice.
A.This simple practice helps rewire your brain for greater happiness.
B.Do some indoor activities.
C.Read on for some great advice.
D.It also appears to keep your body young.
E.Be grateful to those who have been there for you through thick and thin.
F.Get fresh air every day
G.Spending time in nature has been proved to lower stress and blood pressure.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何长寿提出了一些建议。
