Hannah Bullen-Ryner is an artist who not only takes the time to "smell the roses",but she uses them
as a medium to craft stunning portraits of birds.Bullen-Ryner,a photographer by trade.began her artistic
hobby shortly after her twin daughters were born.The young mother suffered from depression and anxiety
To seek a solution,she turned to nature.
Bullen-Ryner started spending time alone in the woods,foraging for materials:flowers,branches,
leaves,and grass.On an impulse ()she started forming a portrait of a bird with the items she had
gathered.When her picture was finished,Bullen-Ryner realized that she felt calm and hopeful.The
process had been healing and therapeutic(有疗效的)
Bullen-Ryner tells My Modern Met,"Finding the medium of land art has allowed my art and soul to
connect to the earth.As a full-time Mama of nearly three-year-old twin girls,and someone who suffers
from anxiety,my art is my quiet time,my peace."
When Bullen-Ryner creates her artwork on the forest floor,she never uses glues or any other material
to bond the foraged items.This means that a single breeze is able to carry away or scatter her portrait.
"People often ask me why don't I make something more permanent or they say it's such a shame that
it's temporary,"Bullen-Ryner explains."But for me."she continues,"it is the short-lived nature of what I
do that has become therapy for my soul.I get to put down all my anxieties,my fears,and all the chaos
from my brain and turn it into something beautiful to honor Mother Nature.I take some photos and then
walk or cycle away,leaving it all behind and feeling calmer,more connected,and truly lighter."

Tardigrades(水熊虫),with nicknames like"water bear'”,may be the toughest animals on Earth.They
have evolved to live almost anywhere and survive almost anything.Some tardigrades can escape
conditions that would kill most living beings,including extremes far beyond anything found on Earth.
Tardigrades have been around for at least 500 million years or so,possibly sharing a common
ancestor with arthropods ()Over 1,000 species are known today,including marine,freshwater,
and terrestrial tardigrades.Tardigrades are near the edge of visibility for most human eyes.A typical
tardigrade is about 0.5 mm long,and even the largest ones are less than 2 mm in length.
Perhaps the most famous thing about tardigrades is their strange and mysterious durability.
Tardigrades are not immortal,but they have a powerful adaptation that allows them to survive for decades
in extreme conditions.
To endure environmental stress,tardigrades suspend their metabolism (through a process
called cryptobiosis.They curl up and enter a death-like state known as a tun.Their metabolism slows to
0.01%of normal,and their water content drops to less than 1%.They survive in this state by replacing the
water in their cells with a protective sugar called trehalose(),which preserves all the cellular
machinery until water is available again.
Some tardigrades in a tun can handle pressure as high as 600 megapascals(MPa).That's nearly 6,000
atmospheres,or 6,000 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere at sea level,and it's about six times higher
than the pressure found in the planet's deepest ocean trenches.Even half as much pressure,300 MPa,
would kill most multicellular life and bacteria.
Two tardigrade species flew into low-Earth orbit on the FOTON-M3 mission in 2007,becoming the
first animals known to survive direct exposure to space.The 12-day mission proved that exposure to the
vacuum (was no probiem for them,and the lack of gravity had little effect,either.Some
tardigrades even laid eggs during the mission.Research has shown tardigrades can survive roughly 1,000
times more radiation than a human.
Chinese scientists have decoded the key mechanisms that make tardigrades radiation-resistant,which
could shed light on how to make human beings stronger against radiation and how to increase the stress
tolerance of human cells in the future,according to a study published in the journal Science in October
2024.
28.How does the author introduce the features of tardigrades in Paragraph 2?
A.By making comparisons.
B.By analyzing cause and effect.
C.By showing examples.
D.By listing figures.
29.Why can tardigrades possibly survive in extreme conditions according to this passage?
A.Because they are immortal.
B.Because they can change extreme conditions.
C.Because they slow down their metabolism.
D.Because they can regain life from death for many times
30.When tardigrades face pressure or space,what is a possible condition?
A.They can't handle pressure more than 500 Mpa.
B.They will be killed by the pressure about 300 Mpa.
C.They can only survive indirect exposure to space.
高二英语试题第4页共8页
D.They are almost not affected by the lack of gravity.
What is the importance of the study of Chinese scientists?
A.Their findings can be applied to help human beings.
B.They focuses on the reproduction of tardigrades
C.Their study can promote to study the dietary habits of tardigrades.
D.They proved tardigrades radiant-resistant.

Anyone who has left that spark of joy when a favourite song comes on the radio at just the right
moment-or wept along with a singer who is expressing heartache-will understand the emotional
resonance of music.But now,a growing body of scientific evidence is actuall demonstrating that
music can be medicine,too.
In a review of 400 research papers looking into the neurochemistry of music,Daniel Levitin,a
psychologist and neuroscientist in Montreal.found that playing and listening to music had clear mental
and physical health benefits.
One 2007 study from a team of Spanish researchers found that listening to music before surgery had
the same effect in reducing pre-operative anxiety as taking diazepam ()-an important finding,as
anxiety before a major surgery can affect post-operative pain and recovery time.Another Spanish study,
conducted in 2018,found that patients participating in a music-therapy (programme experienced
significant decreases in tiredness,anxiety and breathing difficulties.as well as an increase in feelings of
well-being.
The Centre for Music and Medicine in Baltimor is taking music into the "precision medicine"(
field.The Center is the brainchild of Dr Alexander Pantelyat,who specialises in movement
disorders like Parkinson's.Applying this kind of treatment to movement disorders is relatively new;
previously,it was mainly the field of cancer therapies.Pantelyat explains,"Amazingly there is an
understanding in the field of music medicine that there can be tailored interventions using music that a
person actually likes,that speaks to them culturally,personally or autobiographically."
Kerry Devlin,the Centre's senior music therapist,says there can be folks experiencing intensive
symptoms,like a decline in their ability to verbally communicate.Music,she notes,can sometimes help
such patients find ways to respond again."I've had the honour of making music with people and all of a
sudden they're coming up with new words.It turns into this beautiful unexpected moment.It's a powerful
thing to witness someone find themselves again for a moment,and a song is the vehicle for that shift."
32.What can be learnt about music from paragraph 1?
A.It can indeed serve as a form of therapy.
B.It merely brings happiness to people.
C.It is mainly used for entertainment purposes
D.Its emotional resonance isn't supported scientifically.
33.How does listening to music affect patients according to researchers?
A.They can soon recover as well as before.
B.They don't need to take medicine before an operation.
C.They feel less energetic,anxious and breathless.
D.They have their worry greatly reduced before an operation.
34.What is special about music therapy according to Pantelyat?
A.It is a brand new therapy method.
B.It can be flexibly personalized.
C.It applies to movement disorders all along
D.It plays a main role in cancer treatment.
35.What can be inferred from Kerry Devlin's words?

A.Everyone can benefit from music.
B.The music moment is powerful.
C.Music may help improve the weakened speech.
D.Songs can guarantee the speech recovery.

Pain is an unavoidable part of life that we all experience at some point in our lives.It comes in
various forms:physical,emotional,psychological or spiritual,and it can be annoying and miserable.
36 This step-by-step guide will show you how to haress the power of pain for personal growth.
Step 1:Acknowledge Your Pain
The first step towards hamessing the power of pain is acknowledging it.If you deny your pain or
pretend that it does not exist,you will never be able to learn from it.You must embrace your pain and
accept the hurt and discomfort that comes with it.Do not shy away from your feelings or numb them with
alcohol or other distractions.
Step 2:Understand the Source of Your Pain
37Identify what brings about your negative emotions and understand why they do so.Ask
yourself questions like"What makes me feel hurt?""What do I fear losing?""What are my insecurities?".
By understanding what contributes to our negative emotions,we can begin working on letting go and find
meaning in our suffering.
Step 3:Learn from Your Pain
Each painful event we encounter has lessons within them that can help us grow as individuals.38
Make sure you take notes so as not to forget these lessons when times are lighter because fall back to old
patterns is very easy to do.
Step 4:39
Holding onto pain can be mentally and physically exhausting.Therefore,it is crucial to seek support
from friends,family or a trusted therapist if necessary.Having a support system in place can help you
process your pain better and facilitate personal development.
40 Others prefer sharing with
friends who have gone through similar experiences or seeking community groups.
By following these steps above consistently over time,you will start seeing significant progress in
your personal growth while also understanding and appreciating virtually everything that comes your way
-both positive and negative-as an opportunity to learn more about yourself.
A.Change your perspective and see challenges as opportunities rather than obstacles.
B.Some prefer professional help through therapy or coaching.
C.However,pain is a powerful tool that can be used for personal development.
D.Remember always to come back to step one,if something has been challenging.
E.It is essential to identify the source of your pain before moving on to any further steps.
F.Seek Support
G.Hold onto pain.

I was backpacking and planned to climb a volcano called Baru Volcano.At 3,474 meters,it is the
only place on Earth from where you can see the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans at the same time.
I set off before sunrise.It was a little cold,so I had pulled on tights under my trousers.I intended to
reach the top by midday,and then returned before dark to get a lift to my hotel.I always felt safe
travelling as a woman on my own,which I'd done since my 20s.I love the freedom.When I got to the
base of the volcano at 7 in the morning,the ranger()disagreed to let me go alone,but said OK
because an American couple were behind me.
The first part of the climb was beautiful.It was not dry as you might imagine a volcano might
be---there were trees and flowers all around,and a dirt road for the farmers who worked around there.I
walked for an hour and reached-a fair height.The views were impressive,so I stopped to take a
photograph.
Suddenly I heard violent barking behind me.I turned and saw two dogs running aggressively
towards me.I expected them to stop,but they didn't.As they got closer,I could see their teeth looked
sharp,and that they looked angry.There was nowhere for me to run.I tried to keep calm,but my heart
was racing.I'd never been bitten by a dog,and I couldn't help but fear what would happen.They stopped
a dozen feet from where I stood and kept barking.I knew they could move fast,so I didn't want to try to
outrun them.
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。
Terrified,I slowly kept walking,saying,"Come on,good dogs!"
Just at this critical moment,a pickup appeared,driven by the ranger.
