A 【解析】 【原文】W: Good evening, everyone. I recently learnt Arabic in Cairo as part of my degree. My interest in the language was due to the passion of our Arabic lecturer and as the course progressed, my interest in the culture also grew with it. I considered studying in the Middle East, but ultimately decided on Cairo due to its energetic cultural scene. However, in the city, we faced some challenges, including difficulties finding a hotel and accommodation as we were a group of unmarried individuals. Once settled, the culture shock was intense for some of us. One member of our group returned home within the first week. Luckily I became accustomed to the life in Cairo gradually. The biggest challenge of learning Arabic is the disconnection between the written and the spoken forms. Despite these challenges, learning Arabic has been a rewarding experience, including absorbing myself in the culture and getting to know the locals and even negotiating at a local market. Highlights were being invited to a traditional Arabic meal at one of the locals’ home and being able to confidently communicate. Overall, this experience was outside of my comfort zone and allowed me to learn and grow in interesting ways. I encourage others to consider involving themselves in new cultures and languages. Thanks for listening. 第二部分: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 In the Commonwealth Games England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have separate Olympics teams, unlike the Olympics where they compete together as Britain.

The classroom programme is being launched by Scholastic Book Clubs with a donation of $1.5 million from the writer James Patterson. Scholastic announced the programme recently, aiming to bring books to 32,000 poor children who are in kindergarten to eighth grade. Judy Newman, president of Scholastic Book Clubs, said that in many communities people don’t have enough money to buy books. So her company “needed to come up with an alternative to our tried-and-true model, because every child needs to be able to choose and own books, and see themselves as a reader!” Scholastic is a large publisher of books for children and educational materials. Its goal is to get books into schools to increase literacy. The company has publishing rights in the U.S. for books like the Harry Potter and Hunger Games series. A gift from Patterson helped start the new programme. He is credited with selling millions of books. He has already donated more than $10 million to teachers and students through Scholastic. He said that he has supported literacy for many years. He believes reading skills are important for the country. “In many cases, kids simply need access to books— and especially books they want to read— to fall in love with reading, characters, and stories.” Patterson added that the programme “will bring books to those schools and communities that need them the most, and ones that we haven’t served before.” Scholastic describes the programme on its website. It says the United States of Reader programme targets children in schools serving poor communities. The company said it has chosen a limited number of schools to take part this year but hopes to expand the programme in the coming years. 24. Who of the following is the target of the United States of Readers? A. Teenagers who like literature very much. B. Children from less developed countries. C. Schools and communities that have worked together before. D. Children in urgent need of books in lower grades in backward areas. 25. In Judy Newman’s opinion, what is the main problem to be solved by the future model? A. Attacting more donated books. B. Expanding the number of books. C. Meeting children’s personalized needs. D. Developing students’ reading ability. 26. What is the goal of Scholastic Book Clubs? A. To translate foreign works. B. To help students promote literacy. C. To explore new reading patterns. D. To recommend excellent children’s writers. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To entertain poor children. B. To advertise for new books. C. To introduce a new reading programme. D. To criticize the traditional teaching model. 【答案】24 D 25. C 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章的主要内容是：一位著名作家的一笔捐款启动了一项名为“美国读者”的活动，以帮助贫困儿童阅读更多书籍。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A donation by a famous writer has helped start an effort, called the United States of Readers, to help poor children read more books.(一位著名作家的捐赠帮助启动了一项名为美国读者的活动，以帮助贫困儿童阅读更多的书籍)”和第三段“Scholastic announced the programme recently, aiming to bring books to 32,000 poor children who are in kindergarten to eighth grade.(Scholastic最近宣布了这一计划，旨在为3.2万名从幼儿园到八年级的贫困儿童提供书籍)”以及最后一段的句子“It says the United States of Reader programme targets children in schools serving poor communities.(Scholastic表示，美国阅读项目针对的是贫困社区学校的儿童)”可知，United States of Readers目标是针对落后地区低年级急需书籍的儿童。故选D项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Judy Newman, president of Scholastic Book Clubs, said that in many communities people don’t have enough money to buy books. So her company ‘needed to come up with an alternative to our tried-and-true model, because every child needs to be able to choose and own books, and see themselves as a reader!’(Scholastic读书俱乐部主席朱迪·纽曼表示，在许多社区，人们没有足够的钱买书。因此，她的公司‘需要拿出一种替代我们久经考验的模式，因为每个孩子都需要能够选择和拥有书籍，并将自己视为读者!’)”可知，未来模型需要解决的主要问题是满足孩子的个性化需求。故选C项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段的句子“Scholastic is a large publisher of books for children and educational materials. Its goal is to get books into schools to increase literacy.(Scholastic是一家大型儿童图书和教育材料出版商。它的目标是让书籍进入学校，以提高读写能力)”可知，Scholastic Book Clubs的目标是帮助学生提高读写能力。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。文章介绍了一位著名作家的一笔捐款启动了一项名为“美国读者”的活动，以帮助贫困儿童阅读更多书籍。所以这篇文章的目的是给读者介绍一个新的阅读计划。故选C项。 C Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化). A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy. Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future. There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change. 28. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory. 29. What caused the coral bleaching? A. The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae. C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship. 30. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs? A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn. C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems. 31. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts? A. Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了弗罗里达州的珊瑚礁因受高温天气影响而出现白化现象以及专家们为保护珊瑚礁所采取的措施。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中划线词所在句的下文“The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. (藻类从太阳获得能量，并在内部与珊瑚分享。珊瑚形成了一个岩石状的结构，构成了大部分的珊瑚礁，为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物。)”可知，珊瑚分享藻类从太阳获得能量，珊瑚礁为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物；因此，藻类与珊瑚之间是相互依存的共生关系；由此可知，划线词所在句子意为“珊瑚是一种动物，它与一种微小的藻类有共生关系”，因此划线词symbiotic表达的意思是“共生的，相互依赖的”，与reliable表达的意思一致。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).(创纪录的高温给珊瑚礁创造了一个极其紧张的环境，它们目前也在经历严重的珊瑚白化。)”可知，高温引起了珊瑚礁的白化现象。故选C。 【30题详解】 理解细节题。根据第三段中“Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.(许多实验室、机构和其他组织都在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁。这包括努力了解是什么在困扰珊瑚礁，从疾病爆发到沿海发展的影响。它还包括收获珊瑚卵，或种植珊瑚枝节。在这次海洋热浪中，科学家们将许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中。他们正在深入研究珊瑚的DNA，以发现哪些物种在未来存活得最好。)”可知，科学家们在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁，他们研究困扰珊瑚礁的因素、孵化珊瑚卵、种植珊瑚枝节、高温中把许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中以及深入研究珊瑚的DNA以发现未来存活最好的物种；B选项“Growing and planting coral spawn.(种植珊瑚卵)”不是科学家所采取的保护措施。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. (然而，这个故事也有一些亮点。一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化)”可知,经过科学家的努力，一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化；由此可知，科学家们的努力有了成效。故选D。 D Human innovation (创新) has allowed people to explore space for decades. Within a space station, astronauts have enough air, food and water to complete missions of a year or longer without a resupply. But missions to further reaches of space are a different matter. Establishing a base on the moon or sending humans to Mars seems just on the horizon. That can only happen if innovative and foolproof ways are developed to supply humans with enough air, water and food. One company, Interstellar Labs, has developed an advanced, closed loop system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. They call their AI managed greenhouses BioPods and they are designed to be very efficient. In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. That is not an impossible claim. BioPods don’t use any soil to grow plants, and the vast majority of water is recycled and recirculated. Plants are grown inside BioPods using aeroponics, the practice of hanging plants in the air and spraying a mist of nutrient-rich water on their roots. By using aeroponics, the BioPod system carefully conserves water with amazing results. According to Interstellar labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water. The conditions inside of a BioPod are controlled by AI, which can change anything from the lighting to the temperature and humidity to maximize growth. This optimizes (使最优化) growing conditions no matter what the environment is outside, including the emptiness of space. The BioPods themselves can be built in almost any environment, too. The pod’s structure is made with a 3D printer using raw materials in liquid form. The inside part is sealed with an inflatable membrane (充气膜) that is also 3D-printed. This means that a BioPod could be built right on the surface of the moon or Mars, making transporting a large structure unnecessary. Like most technology developed for space exploration, BioPods can also be used on Earth to provide highly efficient food production systems even in the harshest environments. 32. In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to____________. A. propose a definition B. introduce a topic C. make a comparison D. reach a conclusion 33. Which of the following best describes Biopods? A. They are deigned to be used in harsh environments on Earth. B. They are easy to operate without need for soil or water. C. They are highly productive and efficient greenhouses. D. They are widely used for space exploration. 34. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Space Exploration with BioPods B. Growing Food in the Space Pods C. Food Consumption in Space Station D. 3D Printers Used in Space Lab 35. What is the writer’s attitude to the BioPod? A. Cautious. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Ambiguous. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一家公司开发了一种先进的闭环系统BioPods，可以在太空舱里种植植物，为宇航员提供食物。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Establishing a base on the moon or sending humans to Mars seems just on the horizon. That can only happen if innovative and foolproof ways are developed to supply humans with enough air, water and food. (在月球上建立基地或将人类送上火星似乎就在眼前。只有开发出创新的、万无一失的方法来为人类提供足够的空气、水和食物，这才有可能实现。)”和第二段“One company, Interstellar Labs, has developed an advanced, closed loop system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. (一家名为星际实验室(Interstellar Labs)的公司开发了一种先进的闭环系统，可以在任何地方种植植物，甚至在太空中。)”以及下文对这个系统的介绍，可知第一段是为了引出本文的话题，故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They call their AI managed greenhouses BioPods and they are designed to be very efficient. (他们把人工智能管理的温室称为BioPods，它们被设计得非常高效。)”和第三段“According to Interstellar labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water. (根据星际实验室的说法，biopod种植的植物的产量比传统种植的植物高300倍，只需要少量的水。)”可知Biopods是高效和高产的温室，故选C。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“One company, Interstellar Labs, has developed an advanced, closed loop system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. (一家公司，星际实验室开发了一种先进的闭环系统，可以在任何地方种植植物，甚至在太空中。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了一家公司开发了一种先进的闭环系统，可以在太空舱里种植植物，为宇航员提供食物。所以B选项“Growing Food in the Space Pods(在太空舱里种植食物) ”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They call their AI managed greenhouses BioPods and they are designed to be very efficient. (他们把人工智能管理的温室称为BioPods，它们被设计得非常高效。)”和第三段“According to Interstellar labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water. (根据星际实验室的说法，biopod种植的植物的产量比传统种植的植物高300倍，只需要少量的水。)”以及最后一段“Like most technology developed for space exploration, BioPods can also be used on Earth to provide highly efficient food production systems even in the harshest environments. (与大多数为太空探索而开发的技术一样，BioPods也可以在地球上使用，即使在最恶劣的环境中也能提供高效的粮食生产系统。)”可知BioPods有很多优点，所以作者的态度应该是积极的，故选C。 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山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Practice Gratitude (感激) in Your Daily Life Gratitude is a positive emotion.

Learning how to practice it is an effort to remind yourself of the good in life and to show an internal appreciation for yourself and others. (感恩是一种积极的情感。学习如何实施感恩是提醒自己生活中的美好，并对自己和他人表现出内在的感激之情的一种努力)”可知作者认为感恩是一种积极的情感，有其好处，我们需要学会如何实施感恩，再结合标题“How to Practice Gratitude (感激) in Your Daily Life (如何在日常生活中实施感恩)”和下文“Whichever exercise you do, it’s vital to remember the elements of gratitude: the awareness of the good things, expressing gratitude to yourself and giving thanks to people you’re grateful for. (无论你做什么练习，都必须记住感恩的要素：对美好事物的意识，对自己表达感激之情，以及对你感激的人表示感谢)”及下文讲实施感恩的策略可知，作者应该在该空讲有方法能帮助人实施感恩，C选项“有一些感恩活动和练习”切合语境。故选C项。 【37题详解】 由小标题“Create a gratitude list. (创建一个感恩清单)”可知作者建议通过写感恩清单来实施感恩，下文“It can also help you picture the biggest and smallest moments that make your day. (它还可以帮助你描绘一天中最重要和最微小的时刻)”讲写感恩清单的另一好处，结合下文中“also”可知该空应该讲写感恩清单的第一个好处，G选项“写下积极的时刻有助于更好地看待生活”切合语境，选项中“the positive moments”呼应上文“The intense stress of life can get you so caught up that we may fail to recognize the positive events or interactions we encounter on a daily basis. (生活中的巨大压力会让你陷入困境，以至于我们可能无法识别我们每天遇到的积极事件或互动)”中的“the positive events or interactions”。故选G项。 【38题详解】 该空选取小标题，需总结下文，由下文“Expressing your gratitude to those you’re grateful for strengthens your relationship with them. Plus, bonding with family and friends is a simple act that can help you feel gratitude for these relationships. Sharing kindness will make you feel happier and healthier. (向那些你感激的人表达你的感激之情可以加强你与他们的关系。此外，与家人和朋友建立联系是一种简单的行为，可以帮助你对这些关系感到感激。分享善意会让你感到更快乐、更健康)”可知，作者建议通过向他人表达你的感激之情来实施感激，A选项“与他人分享你的感激之情”切合语境。故选A项。 【39题详解】 由上文“Make a gratitude jar (罐). Make the jar fun and personable by decorating it and placing it where you can always see it. Every day, write down what you’re grateful for on a slip of paper and put it in the jar. (做一个感恩的罐子。把罐子装饰好，放在你能看到的地方，让它变得有趣和有风度。每天，把你感激的东西写在一张纸上，然后放进罐子里)”可知，作者建议通过制作一个放感激字条的感恩罐子来实施感激，该空应该讲这样做的好处（才能说服读者认同这个方法的作用），D选项“当你填满它时，它能很好地提醒你美好的时光”切合语境，选项中“it”指代上文中的“a gratitude jar”。故选D项。 【40题详解】 由上文“In conclusion, engaging in daily gratitude exercises can make a great difference. Showing gratitude helps you connect with positive emotions, focus on acknowledging the good, and shift your focus to positive aspects of life. (总之，每天进行感恩练习会有很大的不同。表达感激之情有助于你与积极的情绪建立联系，专注于承认美好，并将注意力转移到生活的积极方面)”可知，本段是总结段落，作者再次强调了实施感恩练习的诸多好处，该空是全文尾句，应起到总结全文的作用，再结合全文讲日常生活中有关练习感恩的策略可知，作者应在该空呼吁读者要在生活中一直实施感恩，使其成为习惯，F选项“当它成为一种习惯时，你也会收获最大的回报”切合语境。故选F项。 第三部分:语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空內处的最佳选项。 Battling with cancer at the point of becoming a teenager was painful, but I chose to help and encourage those less fortunate children to build up confidence.

They swam right into the cove next to our town and stayed there for days. You could see them splashing their tails and looking at everyone on the beach. People came from far away to see those huge and amazing creatures. The whales seemed to like the attention. They would dive and spout water almost as if they were performing for us. I couldn’t imagine feeling so comfortable with all those people watching me. Just the idea of performing made me freeze up like a block of ice. I loved spending time at the cove when no one else was around. I felt too shy to sing in front of people, but the whales were a great audience! They swam and jumped in the cove while I sang. They seemed to like my songs, and I knew they would never let out my secret. I hadn’t told my family or friends about my songs. I wasn’t ready to share my music yet. While I was walking along the rocks one day, I spotted an unusual shape in the water next to the beach. It was a whale! The whale wasn’t moving at all, and much of it was out of the water. I realized that it must have swum too close to the shore and gotten stuck. I knew I wasn’t big enough to push the whale out to deeper water. Still, I had to do something, so I turned and ran back down the beach for help. I spotted my sister Rosa coming toward me. “Rosa!” I shouted loudly. “Quick, go home and get help—a whale is stuck!” Rosa hesitated for a second, then turned and ran toward home. I went back to keep watch. Soon, my mom and dad came rushing and I showed them where the whale was. “We need to get this whale back in the sea!” Dad said. “Tomas, you and Rosa keep the whale wet while we run and get help.” Rosa and I waded(涉水)into the water next to the whale and began to water it. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.开头已给出，不计入词数。 Paragraph 1: Even though Rosa and I were keeping it wet, the whale was trembling with fear. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I continued singing to keep the whale calm and a while later, the entire town came. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Even though Rosa and I were keeping it wet, the whale was trembling with fear. Watching its shaking body, I was on the verge of tears. Then, an idea took shape in my head. “I’ll sing to it!” I said to Rosa. “You sing?” Rosa asked, puzzled. Nodding my head, I tried to use my music to comfort the huge creature. “Sing louder, the whale is relaxing!” Rosa exclaimed. So I sang louder. The whale did seem more relaxed. It wasn’t trembling as much anymore. I continued singing to keep the whale calm and a while later, the entire town came. They immediately joined us in watering the whale, though they seemed to be astonished at my singing aloud. At last, the tide reached its highest point and our whale struggled out into the sea with everyone’s push. Breathing a sigh of relief, everyone began to clap and cheer, not only for the whale’s safety but also for my music. I had thought it would be rather embarrassing to share my song, but now it made me feel good and great. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者发现了一条搁浅的鲸鱼，找来了家人想要帮助鲸鱼回到海里。作者看到鲸鱼很害怕，于是通过唱歌来安抚鲸鱼，最终鲸在大家的推动下挣扎着游到海里去了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“尽管罗莎和我一直把它弄湿，鲸鱼还是害怕得发抖。”可知，第一段可描写作者对鲸鱼唱歌来安抚鲸鱼。 ②由第二段首句内容“我继续唱歌让鲸鱼冷静下来，过了一会儿，整个小镇的人都来了”可知，第二段可描写大家帮助鲸鱼回到海里的经过。 2.续写线索：害怕发抖——唱歌安抚——放松——更多人来帮助——回到海里——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①安抚：comfort /relieve ②尝试：try/attempt ③努力：struggle /strive 情绪类 ①困惑的：puzzled /confused ②惊讶的：astonished /surprised 【点睛】[高分句型1] Watching its shaking body, I was on the verge of tears.

B A donation by a famous writer has helped start an effort, called the United States of Readers, to help poor children read more books. The classroom programme is being launched by Scholastic Book Clubs with a donation of $1.5 million from the writer James Patterson. Scholastic announced the programme recently, aiming to bring books to 32,000 poor children who are in kindergarten to eighth grade. Judy Newman, president of Scholastic Book Clubs, said that in many communities people don’t have enough money to buy books. So her company “needed to come up with an alternative to our tried-and-true model, because every child needs to be able to choose and own books, and see themselves as a reader!” Scholastic is a large publisher of books for children and educational materials. Its goal is to get books into schools to increase literacy. The company has publishing rights in the U.S. for books like the Harry Potter and Hunger Games series. A gift from Patterson helped start the new programme. He is credited with selling millions of books. He has already donated more than $10 million to teachers and students through Scholastic. He said that he has supported literacy for many years. He believes reading skills are important for the country. “In many cases, kids simply need access to books— and especially books they want to read— to fall in love with reading, characters, and stories.” Patterson added that the programme “will bring books to those schools and communities that need them the most and ones that we haven’t served before.” Scholastic describes the programme on its website. It says the United States of Reader programme targets children in schools serving poor communities. The company said it has chosen a limited number of schools to take part this year but hopes to expand the programme in the coming years. 24. Who of the following is the target of the United States of Readers? A. Teenagers who like literature very much. B. Children from less developed countries. C. Schools and communities that have worked together before. D. Children in urgent need of books in lower grades in backward areas. 25. In Judy Newman’s opinion, what is the main problem to be solved by the future model? A. Attacting more donated books. B. Expanding the number of books. C. Meeting children’s personalized needs. D. Developing students’ reading ability. 26. What is the goal of Scholastic Book Clubs? A. To translate foreign works. B. To help students promote literacy. C. To explore new reading patterns. D. To recommend excellent children’s writers. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To entertain poor children. B. To advertise for new books. C. To introduce a new reading programme. D. To criticize the traditional teaching model. C Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化). A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy. Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future. There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change. 28. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory. 29. What caused the coral bleaching? A. The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae. C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship. 30. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs? A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn. C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems. 31. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts? A. Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective. D Human innovation (创新) has allowed people to explore space for decades. Within a space station astronauts have enough air, food and water to complete missions of a year or longer without a resupply. But missions to further reaches of space are a different matter. Establishing a base on the moon or sending humans to Mars seems just on the horizon. That can only happen if innovative and foolproof ways are developed to supply humans with enough air, water and food. One company, Interstellar Labs, has developed an advanced, closed loop system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. They call their AI managed greenhouses BioPods and they are designed to be very efficient. In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. That is not an impossible claim. BioPods don’t use any soil to grow plants, and the vast majority of water is recycled and recirculated. Plants are grown inside BioPods using aeroponics, the practice of hanging plants in the air and spraying a mist of nutrient-rich water on their roots. By using aeroponics, the BioPod system carefully conserves water with amazing results. According to Interstellar labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water. The conditions inside of a BioPod are controlled by AI, which can change anything from the lighting to the temperature and humidity to maximize growth. This optimizes (使最优化) growing conditions no matter what the environment is outside, including the emptiness of space. The BioPods themselves can be built in almost any environment, too. The pod’s structure is made with a 3D printer using raw materials in liquid form. The inside part is sealed with an inflatable membrane (充气膜) that is also 3D-printed. This means that a BioPod could be built right on the surface of the moon or Mars, making transporting a large structure unnecessary. Like most technology developed for space exploration, BioPods can also be used on Earth to provide highly efficient food production systems even in the harshest environments. 32. In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to____________. A. propose a definition B. introduce a topic C. make a comparison D. reach a conclusion 33. Which of the following best describes Biopods? A. They are deigned to be used in harsh environments on Earth. B. They are easy to operate without need for soil or water. C. They are highly productive and efficient greenhouses. D. They are widely used for space exploration. 34. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Space Exploration with BioPods B. Growing Food in the Space Pods C. Food Consumption in Space Station D. 3D Printers Used in Space Lab 35. What is the writer’s attitude to the BioPod? A. Cautious. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Ambiguous. 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山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Practice Gratitude (感激) in Your Daily Life Gratitude is a positive emotion.

They swam right into the cove next to our town and stayed there for days. You could see them splashing their tails and looking at everyone on the beach. People came from far away to see those huge and amazing creatures. The whales seemed to like the attention. They would dive and spout water almost as if they were performing for us. I couldn’t imagine feeling so comfortable with all those people watching me. Just the idea of performing made me freeze up like a block of ice. I loved spending time at the cove when no one else was around. I felt too shy to sing in front of people, but the whales were a great audience! They swam and jumped in the cove while I sang. They seemed to like my songs, and I knew they would never let out my secret. I hadn’t told my family or friends about my songs. I wasn’t ready to share my music yet. While I was walking along the rocks one day, I spotted an unusual shape in the water next to the beach. It was a whale! The whale wasn’t moving at all, and much of it was out of the water. I realized that it must have swum too close to the shore and gotten stuck. I knew I wasn’t big enough to push the whale out to deeper water. Still, I had to do something, so I turned and ran back down the beach for help. I spotted my sister Rosa coming toward me. “Rosa!” I shouted loudly. “Quick, go home and get help—a whale is stuck!” Rosa hesitated for a second, then turned and ran toward home. I went back to keep watch. Soon, my mom and dad came rushing and I showed them where the whale was. “We need to get this whale back in the sea!” Dad said. “Tomas, you and Rosa keep the whale wet while we run and get help.” Rosa and I waded(涉水)into the water next to the whale and began to water it. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.开头已给出，不计入词数。 Paragraph 1: Even though Rosa and I were keeping it wet, the whale was trembling with fear. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I continued singing to keep the whale calm and a while later, the entire town came. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
