But at Omora Ethnobotanical Park on Tierra del Fuego, visitors are encouraged to think small. Tierra del Fuego, a remote island at the tip of South America, might offer little in terms of animals and trees, but when it comes to bryophytes (苔藓植物), it is among the richest corners of the planet. In the area that covers less than 0.01% of the Earth’s land surface, more than 5% of the world’s bryophyte species is found. On entering the park, you’re given a magnifying lens (放大镜). Guided by plant experts, you are invited to get down on your hands and knees to explore the little-known world of Tierra del Fuego’s “miniature forests” — the bryophytes that cover the rocks and trees. Focus is key: as you tiptoe through the park, it is easy to miss or even step on them. I wondered how interesting mosses could be. But when I got up close, they started to come to life. Shapes and colours appeared that were not visible to the naked eye. One plant was bright yellow, while another was green with a bright red tip like a little hat. One of the strangest plants is Old Man’s Beard, which looks like thin noodles and hangs off the trees in webs. According to my guide Lily Lewis, it plays an important role in the growth of the forest, capturing nutrients (营养) and salts blown in on the ocean wind. Old Man’s Beard is extremely vulnerable to pollution, and has all but disappeared across much of the planet. But in Tierra del Fuego, where the air and rain are among the cleanest on the planet, it grows wildly. “The hand lens is your entry point into the world of the miniature forests,” Lewis said. “Looking through a lens reminds you that there are other viewpoints from which we can see the world.” 1. Which title best describes Tierra del Fuego? A.A wonderland for tiny plants. B.A unique place for rare species. C.A top destination for hiking lovers. D.A remote land with different landscapes. 2.

A.Eco-tourism in Tierra del Fuego B.An Encounter with Old Man’s Beard C.A Tiny Forest on the Tip of the World D.Start Your Journey of Discovery, Now! 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. A 4. C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了火地岛的奥莫拉民族植物公园里的苔藓植物组成了一个微型森林世界。 1. 推理判断题。根据第二段“Tierra del Fuego, a remote island at the tip of South America, might offer little in terms of animals and trees, but when it comes to bryophytes (苔藓植物), it is among the richest corners of the planet. In the area that covers less than 0.01% of the Earth’s land surface, more than 5% of the world’s bryophyte species is found.(火地岛是南美洲的一个偏远岛屿,在动物和树木方面可能很少,但说到苔藓植物,它是地球上最丰富的角落之一。在地球陆地面积不到0.01%的地区,发现了世界上超过5%的苔藓植物物种)”可知,火地岛虽小,但拥有世界上超过5%的苔藓植物物种,“火地岛是小植物的仙境”适合做标题。故选A。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“Focus is key: as you tiptoe through the park, it is easy to miss or even step on them.(集中注意力是关键:当你蹑手蹑脚地穿过公园时,很容易错过甚至踩到它们)”可知,在探索奥莫拉民族植物公园时,冷静和专注是最重要的。故选C。 3. 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“But in Tierra del Fuego, where the air and rain are among the cleanest on the planet, it grows wildly.(但在火地岛,那里的空气和雨水是地球上最干净的,它疯狂地生长)”以及划线词句“Old Man’s Beard is extremely vulnerable to pollution, and has all but disappeared across much of the planet.(Old Man’s Beard对污染极其vulnerable,几乎在地球的大部分地区都消失了)”可知,火地岛环境非常好,Old Man’s Beard在火地岛生长得很好,说明对污染很敏感,在地球上的大部分地区几乎都消失了。故划线词意思是“敏感的”。故选A。 4. 主旨大意题。根据第三段“On entering the park, you’re given a magnifying lens (放大镜). Guided by plant experts, you are invited to get down on your hands and knees to explore the little-known world of Tierra del Fuego’s “miniature forests” — the bryophytes that cover the rocks and trees.(一进入公园,你就会得到一个放大镜。在植物专家的指导下,您将被邀请跪下来探索火地岛鲜为人知的“微型森林”世界——覆盖在岩石和树木上的苔藓植物)”结合文章主要介绍了火地岛的奥莫拉民族植物公园里的苔藓植物组成了一个微型森林世界。可知,C选项“世界之巅的小森林”最符合文章标题。故选C。 Passage 7 (23-24高一下·辽宁本溪·期末)For thousands of years, humans have raced to be the first to climb a peak, cross a frontier, or document a new species or landscape. Now in some cases, people are racing to be the last. In recent years, a growing industry has been stimulated by climate change — last-chance tourism. According to Eco Sustainable Solutions, a UK-based organic recycling and waste processing company last-chance tourism is a kind of tourism geared toward seeing the last of something due to climate change. As temperatures and water levels rise, this could mean seizing the last chance to see the Great Barrier Reef, an Arctic glacier and a remote island that is sinking. As millions of tourists rush to imperiled destinations, some are taking advantage of the increasing demand to spread environmental awareness. One tourist spot, the Sea of Ice in France, opened an exhibit in 2021 to educate visitors on glaciers and climate change. This educational push seems to be having an impact, as a 2023 survey showed that 80% of the visitors would try to learn more about the environment and how to protect it while 77% said that they would reduce their water and energy use. However, the last-chance tourism industry may become kind of our concern. As more and more people flood into these areas in a panic to see them before they are gone, they in fact contribute to the increased greenhouse gas emissions and over-tourism, leading to their destruction. Just as many scholars put it, last-chance tourism is a paradox (悖论). Although tourists may acknowledge the broader risks and importance of climate change, it’s even more important to connect the responsibility of the individual tourism to the future of our planet. It’s not just about understanding the need to stop climate change; it’s even more important to avoid making it worse. 1. What is last-chance tourism primarily driven by? A.Adventure seeking. B.Cultural exploration. C.Environmental awareness. D.Historical preservation. 2. What does the underlined word “imperiled” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A.Developed. B.Endangered. C.Deserted. D.Preserved. 3. What is suggested in addressing the negative impacts of last-chance tourism? A.Promoting cultural preservation efforts. B.Spreading awareness about climate change. C.Reducing individual contributions to climate change. D.Encouraging more tourists to visit imperiled destinations. 4. Which of the following can best describe last-chance tourism? A.It’s a stone to kill two birds. B.It’s a double-edged sword. C.It’s a life jacket in the stormy sea. D.It’s a solution once and for all. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. C 4. B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了由于气候变化引发的“最后机会旅游”现象。这种旅游形式旨在让人们抓住最后的机会去参观那些因气候变化而面临消失的自然景观。然而,这种旅游方式也带来了负面影响,如增加了温室气体排放和过度旅游,加剧了这些地区的破坏。文章通过分析这一现象,呼吁人们在旅游时意识到个人责任,避免加剧气候变化。 1. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“last-chance tourism is a kind of tourism geared toward seeing the last of something due to climate change(最后机会旅游是一种针对因气候变化而即将消失的景点的旅游)”可知,最后机会旅游主要是由环境意识驱动的,人们希望抓住最后的机会去参观那些因气候变化而面临消失的地方。故选C项。 2. 词义猜测题。第二段中“last-chance tourism is a kind of tourism geared toward seeing the last of something due to climate change. As temperatures and water levels rise, this could mean seizing the last chance to see the Great Barrier Reef, an Arctic glacier and a remote island that is sinking.(‘最后一次旅游’是一种旨在看到气候变化导致的最后一幕的旅游。随着气温和水位的上升,这可能意味着抓住最后的机会去看大堡礁,一个北极冰川和一个正在下沉的偏远岛屿)”提到“最后一次旅游”是去那些即将消失、濒危的目的地,根据文章第三段中的“As millions of tourists rush to … destinations, some are taking advantage of the increasing demand to spread environmental awareness(数百万游客涌向这些……目的地,一些人利用这种增长的需求来传播环境意识)”可知,数百万游客涌向这些处于危险中的目的地,一些人利用这种增长的需求来传播环境意识。由此可推测,“imperiled”意味着“处于危险中的”。故选B项。 3. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Although tourists may acknowledge the broader risks and importance of climate change, it’s even more important to connect the responsibility of the individual tourism to the future of our planet. It’s not just about understanding the need to stop climate change; it's even more important to avoid making it worse(尽管游客可能认识到气候变化的广泛风险和重要性,但将个人旅游的责任与地球的未来联系起来更为重要。这不仅仅是理解停止气候变化的需要,更重要的是避免使其变得更糟)”可推理出,解决最后机会旅游的负面影响应该减少个人对气候变化的作用。 故选C项。 4. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“However, the last-chance tourism industry may become kind of our concern. As more and more people flood into these areas in a panic to see them before they are gone, they in fact contribute to the increased greenhouse gas emissions and over-tourism, leading to their destruction. Just as many scholars put it, last-chance tourism is a paradox (悖论).( 最后机会旅游产业可能成为我们关注的问题。随着越来越多的人涌入这些地区,希望在它们消失之前看到它们,实际上他们增加了温室气体排放和过度旅游,导致这些地方的破坏。正如许多学者所说,最后机会旅游是一个悖论)”可知,最后机会旅游可以被描述为一把双刃剑,既有积极的一面,也有消极的一面。 故选B项。 Passage 8 (23-24高一下·宁夏银川·期末)The sun is about to set when we reach our destination, the home of a nomadic (游牧的) herder (牧民) family. My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travelers in Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don’t knock on the door: when you approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly “Hold your dog.”, even if you don’t see a dog. We feast at the family home on one of the country’s most distinct and tasty dishes: khorkhog, or mutton cooked using hot rocks. This comes served with onions, a variety of berries, and milk-besides more plates of meat, all from the family’s own livestock (家畜). Mongolia is home to one of the world’s few remaining truly nomadic cultures. About a fifth of the population are herders, and nomadism is complexly woven into the country’s spirit. But modern life is catching up with the people on the grassland at rapid speed. This is in large part what my book is about: an outsider’s exploration of a society undergoing modernization while trying to hold fast to its deeply rooted traditional values. Many of the livestock here, especially the more valuable breeds such as horses, camels and cattle, are implanted with microchips that can be monitored via satellite-based services. “I would like to use the Internet more because it’s fun and useful; but the animals like it here. This is a good place for them,” Batbayer says when I ask if better Internet connectivity might influence where to move his livestock next. “I would never choose Facebook over the well-being of the animals.” 1. Which aspect of the herders does the author focus on in paragraph 1? A.Living conditions. B.Pet preference. C.Reading habits. D.Friendliness. 2. What do we know about nomadic culture? A.Herders have no access to fruits and vegetables. B.It is the world’s dominant culture. C.The majority of Mongolians are herders. D.Herders’ life is being modernized. 3. What can we infer from Batbayer’s words in the last paragraph? A.He refuses to use social media. B.He will no longer employ microchips. C.He puts the welfare of livestock at first. D.He will introduce more valuable breeds. 4. What is the text? A.A book review. B.A folk tale. C.a field report. D.A travel journal. 【答案】1. D 2. D 3. C 4. D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者拜访蒙古游牧民族家庭,体验了当地独特的饮食和文化的经历。 1. 推理判断题。根据第一段的“My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travelers in Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don’t knock on the door: when you approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly “Hold your dog.”, even if you don’t see a dog.(我造访的男主人巴特拜尔有一张愉快的面容,皱纹很深,长时间在户外工作后的肤色,让他看起来像欧内斯特·海明威小说中的水手。我们已经提前安排了行程,但是在蒙古的游客可以开车到几乎任何蒙古包,并感到很受欢迎。你不用敲门:当你走近一个游牧家庭时,习惯上的问候是亲切地说一句“抱一下你们的狗”,即使你没有看到狗。)”可知,游客可以自由地造访牧民的家,无拘无束,因此作者强调了牧民的友好。故选D。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Mongolia is home to one of the world’s few remaining truly nomadic cultures. About a fifth of the population are herders, and nomadism is complexly woven into the country’s spirit. But modern life is catching up with the people on the grassland at rapid speed. This is in large part what my book is about: an outsider’s exploration of a society undergoing modernization while trying to hold fast to its deeply rooted traditional values.(蒙古是世界上仅存的少数真正的游牧文化之一。大约五分之一的人口是牧民,游牧精神已经复杂地融入了这个国家的精神。但现代生活正以极快的速度追赶着草原上的人们。这在很大程度上是我这本书的主题:一个局外人对一个正在经历现代化的社会的探索,同时试图坚持其根深蒂固的传统价值观。) ”可知,牧民的传统生活与现代生活融合在一起,牧民的生活正走向现代化。故选D。 3. 推理判断题。根据最后一段的““I would like to use the Internet more because it’s fun and useful; but the animals like it here. This is a good place for them,” Batbayer says when I ask if better Internet connectivity might influence where to move his livestock next. “I would never choose Facebook over the well-being of the animals.”(“我想更多地使用互联网,因为它既有趣又有用;但是动物们喜欢这里。这对他们来说是一个好地方,”当我问到更好的互联网连接是否会影响下一步将他的牲畜转移到哪里时,巴特拜尔说。“我永远不会为了Facebook而放弃动物的福祉。”)”可知,巴特拜尔优先考虑的是牲畜的福利,要为牲畜选择适合它们生活的地方。故选C。 4. 推理判断题。根据第一段的“The sun is about to set when we reach our destination, the home of a nomadic herder family. My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travelers in Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don’t knock on the door: when you approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly “Hold your dog.”, even if you don’t see a dog.(当我们到达目的地时,太阳即将落山,这是一个游牧牧民的家。我造访的男主人巴特拜尔有一张愉快的面容,皱纹很深,长时间在户外工作后的肤色,让他看起来像欧内斯特·海明威小说中的水手。我们已经提前安排了行程,但是在蒙古的游客可以开车到几乎任何蒙古包,并感到很受欢迎。你不用敲门:当你走近一个游牧家庭时,习惯上的问候是亲切地说一句“抱一下你们的狗”,即使你没有看到狗。)”可知,这篇文章作者是以第一人称的角度写的,描述的是作者去蒙古的所见所闻所感,所以这是一篇旅游日志。故选D。 Passage 9 (23-24高一下·山西朔州·阶段练习)Forget about “military-style travel” during which people tend to visit as many places as possible in the least amount of time. A more relaxing and leisurely alternative, such as “Citywalk”, is becoming the norm among urban youngsters. Unlike military-style travel, Citywalk is about wandering around a city on foot, feeling the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. It can be a special event where people start a journey led by tour guides or simply explore the streets. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the city’s history and culture. Citywalkers have shared their carefully planned routes on social media platforms, generating thousands of followers. Their posts usually include the time of the walk, and interesting places and restaurants along the way. Some posts are more like a food tour. Nan Xi, who recently moved from Beijing to Shanghai, said “I think Shanghai is a city perfect for Citywalk. There are big trees along the streets and shops selling different products, which is ideal for couples and friends to walk together and take photos.” After several Citywalk experiences, she signed up for a two-and-a-half-hour Citywalk priced at 88 yuan per person. A tour guide told the history of the buildings and streets along the way. “If it were me walking alone, I would simply find the streets artistic, but the tour that day helped me gain a better understanding of how Western culture blends in with (融入) the local culture in Shanghai,” she said. Another surprising benefit of the walk was that she has made friends with two of her fellow walkers. Lin Yi, a manager for an online platform for self-guided tours, thought Citywalk can help travelers learn about local culture and live as local people do, feeling the vibes of a city. “People who participate in Citywalks usually have similar tastes, and can have in-depth discussions with each other,” he said. 1. What is the main difference between military-style travel and Citywalk? A.The transport. B.The cost. C.The purpose. D.The equipment. 2. Why does Nan Xi think Shanghai is a city perfect for Citywalk? A.Because it is a perfect place to run shops. B.Because it provides great experiences in many ways. C.Because there are great things to do at weekends. D.Because ideal couples and friends often gather there. 3. What can be inferred from Nan Xi’s two-and-a-half-hour Citywalk? A.She thought it well worth a try. B.She went on the tour without company. C.She wouldn’t have found the artistic streets by herself. D.She knew how Western culture differed from the local culture in Shanghai. 4. What is the main idea of the article? A.Citywalk is a new trend in urban tourism. B.Citywalk can help travelers make new friends. C.Military-style travel is becoming more popular. D.Military-style travel has an advantage over Citywalk. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A 4. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了当前的旅游新趋势——城市漫步,越来越多的人选择这种更轻松悠闲的方式来体验城市生活。 1. 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Forget about “military-style travel” during which people tend to visit as many places as possible in the least amount of time. (忘记“特种兵式旅行”吧,在这种旅行中,人们倾向于在最短的时间内游览尽可能多的地方)”和第二段中“Unlike military-style travel, Citywalk is about wandering around a city on foot, feeling the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. (与特种兵式旅行不同,城市漫步是指在一个城市里漫步,感受那里的氛围,发现一些即使是城市居民以前也可能没有注意到的不寻常的东西)”可知,特种兵式旅行追求旅行的效率,城市漫步是为了感受城市的氛围,发现城市的细微之处。因此,两者的主要区别在于目的不同。故选C项。 2. 细节理解题。根据第五段中Nan Xi所说的话“I think Shanghai is a city perfect for Citywalk. There are big trees along the streets and shops selling different products, which is ideal for couples and friends to walk together and take photos.

(另一个令人惊讶的好处是,她和两个同行的人成为了朋友)”可知,通过这次的城市漫步,她更好地理解了两种文化的融合,还交到了朋友。由此可知,她认为这种漫步值得一试。故选A项。 4. 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“A more relaxing and leisurely alternative, such as “Citywalk”, is becoming the norm among urban youngsters.

These relics of various forms and history are treasures for future generations. However, hundreds of relics are severely damaged due to the negative influence of time, war and human activities. Vietnamese cultural departments and activists have tried to preserve the historical and cultural relics in the country. Head of Hanoi Relics Management Board, Nguyen DoanTuan, says rescue work must preserve the relics’ soul: “We cannot replace ruined construction with new materials. We must preserve its shape, size and style. We need to pay attention to every brick replaced so that it looks exactly like the original.” Most relics have to rely on tourist fee for repair and rescue work. Director of Van Mieu Cultural and Science Center, Dang Kim Ngoc, says that the relics must be promoted widely to attract more visitors and bring in more income for repair and preservation: “We provide constant guide services for visitors so that they understand more about our relics. At the same time, a natural surrounding of the relic has been ensured, including the grass field and garden to improve its scenic value.” The local government agreed that the relics must be turned to the community for shared efforts in the preservation work. Director of Vietnam Revolution Museum DangQuoc Quan, said that the community must be guided in the preservation and protection, “The UNESCO aims to let local community take part in the preservation of relics. We have seen limitations in the preservation of relics, especially festival related groups of buildings. This requires management and guidance by the government.” Nguyen ThiMinh Ly from the Department of Heritage says the community should be guided in proper behaviors towards relics: “This will ensure the protection of cultural relics in later generations. Creative restoration must be based on previous values.” Experts have called for a systematic guidance by the state in local level preservation while promoting creative thinking in restoration for each relic. 1. Where is the passage most probably taken from? A.A government report. B.A history research paper. C.A newspaper report. D.A travel guide. 2. According to Nguyen Doan Tuan, what is the key aspect of rescuing relics? A.Replacing ruined constructions with new materials. B.Preserving the relics’ shape, size and style.

With 27 sections and 58 historical sites, it was placed on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2014. Running from Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province in the south to Beijing in the north and connecting different river systems, the Grand Canal contributed greatly to ensuring that the Chinese primary economy thrived in past dynasties. The Grand Canal we see today was built section by section in different areas and dynasties before it was linked together by the Sui Dynasty (581 — 618). In 604 CE, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty toured Luoyang. The following year, he moved the capital to Luoyang and ordered a large-scale expansion of the canal. Due to the primitive building techniques, it took over six years to complete the project. About half the peasant builders (about 3,000,000) died of hard labor and hunger before it was finished. This project was thought to have been a waste of manpower and money, which resulted in the downfall of the Sui Dynasty. As a major transportation hub (枢纽), the Grand Canal connected the Yangtze, Yellow, Huaihe, Haihe, and Qiantang Rivers and flowed through Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with Hangzhou as its southernmost end. The Grand Canal, which joined the river systems from different directions, provided a good way to transport foods and goods from south to north. Just as importantly, it greatly improved the administration and defense of China as a whole and strengthened economic and cultural connections between north and south. Boating on the old Canal is one of the best ways to get a panoramic (全景的) view of the landscape of typical river towns in southern China, which include ancient dwellings, stone bridges of traditional designs and historical relics. Experiencing some of the local customs offers much delight to travelers. Tourists also have an opportunity to enjoy good food while appreciating the surrounding scenery. 1. What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph? A.A brief history of the Grand Canal. B.The whole system of the Grand Canal. C.A general introduction to the Grand Canal. D.The impact the Grand Canal had on the economy. 2. What is the credit of Emperor Yang according to the text? A.The establishment of the Sui Dynasty. B.The movement to build the canal. C.The economic prosperity in the Sui Dynasty. D.The connection of the sections of the Grand Canal. 3. What can we infer from the Grand Canal as an important transportation hub? A.It improved building techniques. B.It helped develop the nation steadily as a whole. C.It brought people convenience to travel around. D.It sped up China’s development in agriculture. 4. Why does the writer write the last paragraph? A.To suggest traveling along the old Grand Canal. B.To introduce the good food along the old Grand Canal. C.To show the historical relics tourists will enjoy in southern China. D.To paint a typical landscape of southern China. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B 4. A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国古代伟大的工程——京杭大运河的历史、作用和旅游资源。 1. 主旨大意题。由第一段“The Grand Canal (京杭大运河) is the longest and greatest man-made waterway in ancient China.

The map was made by Wu Yunjie, who was born in the 1990s. Wu has a deep interest in cultural relics and history. When he was in college, he would often make use of his spare time to travel around the country, exploring and documenting ancient sites. In 2020, he started collecting information on cultural relic protection units and uploaded the data to the mapping software. As some of the information is not fully disclosed and many historical sites in far areas cannot be located specifically, Wu spent a lot of time on research and carrying out on-site visits. Now, the map includes nearly 10,000 historical landmarks with different colors standing for different kinds: Red signs show the cultural relic sites under state protection or the national-level museums, while green signs stand for the provincially protected historical sites. A lot of ancient temples, bridges and other architecture in the far areas are also marked on the map. A netizen posted, “I actually found the ancient tower around my house on the map!” However, in Wu’s eyes, the map is not perfect, as it recorded less than two percent of the over 760,000 immovable cultural relics registered in the country’s third national survey of cultural relics. But Wu has been working on improving it. “If possible, I’d also like to document the cultural relics that have been lost overseas. Those treasures may not be able to return to their homeland for the time being, but the stories that they carry are what we need to see.” 1. What can we learn about Wu Yunjie? A.He worked as a software engineer. B.He developed a mapping software. C.He had a deep interest in travelling. D.He was a young responsible netizen. 2.

A.To show the convenience of the map. B.To introduce how to use the map properly. C.To prove the map is believable and informative. D.To explain the meaning of different colors on the map. 4. What does Wu Yunjie plan to do? A.Include cultural relics lost overseas in his map. B.Bring cultural treasures back to China from abroad. C.Make the map perfect by adding dots of other colors. D.Solve technical problems and make money with the map. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C 4. A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。本文介绍了中国90后网民吴云杰利用业余时间绘制了一张包含大量国内历史遗迹和文化遗址的地图,旨在让更多人了解和关注中国的文化遗产。尽管这张地图仍有许多不足,但吴云杰已经计划继续完善它,并希望能将海外流失的文化遗产也纳入其中。 1. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Chinese netizens recently expressed amazement at a map filled with thickly dotted signs clearly marking the country’s historic sites and cultural relics. The map was made by Wu Yunjie, who was born in the 1990s.(最近,中国网民对一幅地图表示惊讶,地图上布满了点状的标志,清楚地标出了中国的历史遗迹和文化遗迹。该地图由90后吴云杰绘制。)”可知,他开发了一个地图软件。故选B。 2. 词义猜测题。根据划线词后面的内容“many historical sites in far areas cannot be located specifically, Wu spent a lot of time on research and carrying out on-site visits.(许多偏远地区的历史遗迹无法具体定位,吴花了大量时间进行研究和实地考察。)”可知,许多偏远地区的历史遗迹无法具体定位,吴花了大量时间进行研究和实地考察,由此揭露了一些没有被完全发现的信息。故划线词与C选项“Discovered.(发现)”为同义词。故选C。 3. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“A netizen posted, “I actually found the ancient tower around my house on the map!”(一位网友发帖称:“我竟然在地图上找到了我家附近的古塔!”)”可知,文中引用网民的话是为了证明这张地图的准确性和信息量,并能帮助人们找到附近的古迹,由此证明这张地图是可信和富有信息的。故选C。 4. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“ “If possible, I’d also like to document the cultural relics that have been lost overseas. Those treasures may not be able to return to their homeland for the time being, but the stories that they carry are what we need to see.”(“如果可能的话,我还想记录那些在海外丢失的文物。这些宝藏可能暂时无法回到它们的祖国,但它们所承载的故事是我们需要看到的。”)”可知,文中最后一段提到吴云杰的计划,他表示如果可能的话,他还想记录那些流失海外的文化遗产。这表明他计划将海外文化遗产也纳入他的地图中。故选A。 Passage 13 (23-24高一下·广东广州·期末)Puffins are adorable birds with big, colorful beaks (喙) that live in grassy cliffs in the Far North. One summer day, my husband and I boarded the boat to Flatey Island, eager to catch a glimpse of these charming creatures. As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick. By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours. We huddled under the shelter of a warehouse, wondering what to do. Then a woman wearing mittens (手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. “Would you like to come to our house for lunch?” It was a small yellow house at the edge of the village. It was full of people, young and old. They made room for us at the table. We ate and drank a lot, and they told us all about the puffins and the other birds on the island. It was almost time for the boat to leave, our new friend Sigrid walked in the rain with us to the puffins’ cliffs. We sat still on the wet rocks, watching the birds fly right toward us, cocking their heads as if wondering what we were doing on their island. They made us laugh. When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said. It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day. 1. What was unexpected for the couple at first? A.Remote living place of the puffins. B.The peaceful boat ride. C.Delay in getting on board. D.The cold rainy weather. 2. What does the underlined word “huddled” mean in paragraph 3? A.Walked. B.Crowded. C.Chatted. D.Relaxed. 3. Which word can best describe the couple’s trip on Flatey Island? A.Disappointing. B.Struggling. C.Exciting. D.Heart-warming. 4. What is the best title for the text? A.Puffins and Mittens B.A Close Puffin Watching C.A Magical Trip to Flatey Island D.Surviving a Day with Sigrid 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. D 4. A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在一个夏日里前往Flatey岛观赏海鹦(一种可爱的鸟类)的经历。在遭遇恶劣天气和身体不适的情况下,他们遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid对其进行帮助。这些经历让作者深深感受到了人与人之间的温暖和善意。 1. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick.(船一离开港口,就下起了倾盆大雨。风起了,船开始颠簸。我开始觉得晕船了。)”可知,当船离开港口时,突然下起了大雨,风也大了起来,船开始颠簸,作者开始感到晕船。这表明最初这对夫妇没有预料到会遇到如此寒冷的雨天。故选D。 2. 词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词前面的句子“By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours.(当我们到达小岛时,我的手指都发青了。这艘船要四个小时才能返航。)”以及后文“Then a woman wearing mittens(手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. (然后一个戴着手套的女人走近我们。“你看起来很冷,”她说。)”可知,当作者和丈夫到达岛屿时,手指都冻青了,船还需要四个小时后才会返回。因此,他们在仓库的庇护下挤成一团(缩在一起抵御寒冷),想知道接下来该做什么。故划线词与B选项“Crowded.(拥挤的)”为同义词。故选B。 3. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said.( 船鸣笛时,Sigrid拉着我的手说再见。“你的手好冷啊!”她脱下手套,递给我。“乘船时你需要戴上连指手套,”她说。)”以及最后一段中“It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day.( 十七年过去了,我还留着Sigrid的连指手套。它们不像海雀的嘴那样华丽明亮。尽管我很喜欢那些有趣的小鸟,但当我想起那个岛时,我想到的却是那副连指手套。多年来,我一直努力像西格丽德那天对我那样善待别人。)”可知,尽管这对夫妇最初遇到了不利的天气条件和困难,但他们遇到了善良的Sigrid,她的热情和善良给他们的旅程带来了温暖。特别是她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷,这一行为让作者印象深刻,并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此,这次旅行可以被描述为“暖心的”。故选D。 4. 主旨大意题。通读全文,文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在前往Flatey岛观看海鹦的过程中遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid,并讲述了她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷的温暖故事,这一温暖的行为让作者印象深刻,并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此,选项A“Puffins and Mittens(海鹦和手套)”既包含了文章的主题元素——海鹦,也反映了文章的核心情感——手套所代表的善良和温暖,因此是最佳标题。故选A。 Passage 14 (23-24高一下·广东深圳·期中)From the deserts of Southern California to the forests of Alaska, the U. S. possesses a diversity (多样性) of nature. For most of her life, Joy Ryan never saw the scenery beyond her home state of Ohio. Then, when she was in her mid-eighties, her grandson Brad Ryan decided to take her on a journey to all of the U. S. National Parks, which took eight years to complete. At the age of 93, Grandma Joy has finally seen all 63 parks, ending her journey in the National Park of American Samoa. “When I learned she had never seen the great wildernesses of America-deserts, mountains, oceans, I decided to intervene (干预) in some way,” Brad says. This idea inspired their first trip to the Great Smoky Mountains. However, once they were on the road, Brad realized that they could visit more parks that were nearby. Over the years, they managed to see all of the famous sights at Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods, and so on. But Brad values the time spent with his grandmother just as much as the amazing places they were able to visit. Despite Grandma Joy’s older age, she was able to hike mountains. Brad regards her love for life as the key to her good health. She is grateful for each new day and is always excited for the next journey. Finally, their long journey across the U.S. came to an end with American Samoa. “I am thankful every morning for giving me another day,” Grandma Joy shares. “And you’re your choice whether you’re going to have a rainy day or a sunny day. So, smile at everybody, and let everybody know you’re having a whale of a time.” While her tour of the U. S. has come to a close, she and her grandson are not done traveling.

A month after our trip, I went to Las Vegas for my birthday. I had a lot on my plate and was under a lot of stress; I just wanted to get away and relax for a while. While I was sitting by the pool, an idea suddenly came to me. I’d always wanted to see the Greek island of Santorini, its white houses and buildings, and the blue water surrounding it. Therefore, the idea of a two-week European vacation alone was born. It was something I never thought I’d be planning this soon in my life. I had always thought, if it did ever happen, it would be when I was retired and old. I would lie if I said I wasn’t scared. I’d driven alone across the US before, from California to New Jersey, but traveling to other countries whose languages weren’t the same as mine terrified me. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to communicate with anyone, especially if I got lost somewhere. But I soon realized that if I wanted to follow my dreams, I had to step out of my comfort zone. And it dawned on me that I was scared, and if I let fear take control of me, I’d never get anywhere. As I searched for other places to visit on my trip, I found Mykonos, Greece, which I realized I liked just as much as I liked Santorini. When I arrived in Europe, it was like I was inside a dream. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and what I was experiencing. The best part was the bus ride to Venice. As I rode on the bus and gazed at every new thing I saw, I was having the time of my life. It was nice to see people, young and old, riding their bikes to wherever they needed to go. I thought the architecture of the houses and the buildings was so charming, but seeing people doing their routine was the best part for me. Some people might say, “It’s not a big deal; it’s just Venice. Thousands of people go there every day.” But it was more than that to me. It was about having a dream and when it was time for it to come true, not to be afraid to let it happen. When I did, the reward was more than I could have possibly imagined. 1. What do the underlined words “an idea” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.Visiting Europe alone. B.Having a vacation in Los Angeles. C.Going to Las Vegas for a birthday trip. D.Taking a two-week vacation in Venice. 2. Why was the author terrified when she planned her trip? A.She had never traveled alone before. B.She was feeling very stressed because of her job. C.She got lost in a foreign country before. D.She wasn’t sure whether she would be able to communicate with foreigners. 3. Which of the following is true? A.The best part was the bus ride to Mykonos. B.The author liked Santorini as much as Mykonos. C.The architecture and the buildings were the best part for the author. D.The author felt like she was inside a dream when she was driving across the US. 4. Why was the trip to Venice a big deal to the author? A.She realized the importance of her family. B.She learned more about herself during the trip. C.She figured out how to live a positive life. D.She stepped out of her comfort zone to realize her dreams. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B 4. D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在压力下萌生独自前往欧洲度假的想法,作者克服恐惧,最终体验了如梦似幻的欧洲之旅,尤其是威尼斯之行带来的无尽喜悦和深刻感悟。 1. 词句猜测题。根据第三段“While I was sitting by the pool, an idea suddenly came to me. I’d always wanted to see the Greek island of Santorini, its white houses and buildings, and the blue water surrounding it. Therefore, the idea of a two-week European vacation alone was born.(当我坐在游泳池边时,我突然想到了一个主意。我一直想看看希腊的圣托里尼岛,它的白色房屋和建筑,以及周围的蓝色海水。因此,独自度过两周欧洲假期的想法就诞生了)”可知,划线部分an idea指的是作者独自度过两周欧洲假期的想法。故选A。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“I would lie if I said I wasn’t scared. I’d driven alone across the US before, from California to New Jersey, but traveling to other countries whose languages weren’t the same as mine terrified me. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to communicate with anyone, especially if I got lost somewhere.(如果我说我不害怕,我在撒谎。我以前曾独自开车穿越美国,从加利福尼亚州到新泽西州,但去其他语言与我不同的国家旅行让我感到害怕。我担心自己无法与任何人交流,尤其是如果我在某个地方迷路了)”可知,作者在计划旅行时感到害怕,这是因为作者担心去语言与自己不同的国家,自己会无法与外国人交流。故选D。 3. 细节理解题。根据第六段“As I searched for other places to visit on my trip, I found Mykonos, Greece, which I realized I liked just as much as I liked Santorini.(当我在寻找旅行中可以去的其他地方时,我发现了希腊的米科诺斯,我意识到我喜欢它就像我喜欢圣托里尼一样)”可知,作者像喜欢圣托里尼岛一样喜欢希腊的米科诺斯岛。故选B。 4. 推理判断题。根据第五段“But I soon realized that if I wanted to follow my dreams, I had to step out of my comfort zone. And it dawned on me that I was scared, and if I let fear take control of me, I’d never get anywhere.(但我很快意识到,如果我想追随我的梦想,我必须走出我的舒适区。我突然意识到我很害怕,如果我让恐惧控制我,我就永远不会有任何进展)”以及最后一段“Some people might say, “It’s not a big deal; it’s just Venice. Thousands of people go there every day.” But it was more than that to me. It was about having a dream and when it was time for it to come true, not to be afraid to let it happen. When I did, the reward was more than I could have possibly imagined.(有些人可能会说,“这没什么大不了的;这只是威尼斯。每天都有成千上万的人去那里。”但对我来说,这是关于有一个梦想,当梦想成真的时候,不要害怕让它发生。当我这样做的时候,回报超出了我的想象)”可知,威尼斯之旅对作者来说很重要,这是因为作者走出舒适区,实现了自己的梦想。故选D。 高一下学期 单元话题 梯度训练 29 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$专题-S241阅读理解 人教版必修二 题型特训 UNIT 4:History and Traditions 学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________ 一、 初阶练手 Passage 1 - 5 二、 进阶练习 Passage 6 -10 三、 高阶提升 Passage 11-15 一、 初阶练手 Passage 1 (23-24高一下·云南昭通·阶段练习)The Best Places to Camp in Olympic National Park With more than 2.5 million visitors annually, Olympic National Park is one of the most popular parks in the US.

Passage 2 (23-24高一下·四川成都·期末)You are allowed to bring your pets to Yellowstone National Park. There are specific rules that pet owners must be aware of for the protection and safety of their pets, themselves and wildlife. These rules have been developed over the years from experiences with pets, wildlife and accidents in the park. Yellowstone National Park is a natural area where wildlife is free to wander undisturbed. Park visitors should be able to enjoy native wildlife in their natural environment without the disruption (干扰) of other people’s pets. For this reason, pets are banned in the backcountry and on trails and boardwalks or thermal areas (温泉区). Some additional reasons why pets are prohibited in the backcountry and on trails and boardwalks: * Pets occasionally escape from their owners. Pet animals generally lack the ability to survive in the wild. * There is a strong possibility that your pet could become prey for a bear, coyote, owl or other predators. * There is a possibility of exchange of diseases between pet animals and wildlife. Pets may accompany you in the front country areas of the park. This includes any area within 100 feet/30.5meters of roads, parking areas and campgrounds. Pets must be kept under physical control at all times — caged, crated or on a leash not to exceed six feet in length. There is no kennel facility within Yellowstone National Park. Remember: Pets leave traces other than footprints. The owner is responsible for cleanup and disposal of all pet body wastes. Please be thoughtful of other visitors as well as your pet. 1.

Passage 5 (23-24高一下·河南周口·阶段练习)The world is full of fascinating destinations. We are here for you, providing a private tour to suit your particular needs and help you enjoy a great travel around Austria. Time June to August is the busiest time of the year with crowds of tourists and lower room availability. If you want to avoid the crowded tourists, the best time to visit Austria lasts from April to May and from September to October.

Cities Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck are three must-see cities that shouldn’t be missed in your Austria tour packages. Vienna, the capital city of Austria, is famous for its lively art. Salzburg is also a great region where you can enjoy amazing views of the Eastern Alps. It’s also the birthplace of the famous composer Mozart and the film setting for the Sound of Music.

But at Omora Ethnobotanical Park on Tierra del Fuego, visitors are encouraged to think small. Tierra del Fuego, a remote island at the tip of South America, might offer little in terms of animals and trees, but when it comes to bryophytes (苔藓植物), it is among the richest corners of the planet. In the area that covers less than 0.01% of the Earth’s land surface, more than 5% of the world’s bryophyte species is found. On entering the park, you’re given a magnifying lens (放大镜). Guided by plant experts, you are invited to get down on your hands and knees to explore the little-known world of Tierra del Fuego’s “miniature forests” — the bryophytes that cover the rocks and trees. Focus is key: as you tiptoe through the park, it is easy to miss or even step on them. I wondered how interesting mosses could be. But when I got up close, they started to come to life. Shapes and colours appeared that were not visible to the naked eye. One plant was bright yellow, while another was green with a bright red tip like a little hat. One of the strangest plants is Old Man’s Beard, which looks like thin noodles and hangs off the trees in webs. According to my guide Lily Lewis, it plays an important role in the growth of the forest, capturing nutrients (营养) and salts blown in on the ocean wind. Old Man’s Beard is extremely vulnerable to pollution, and has all but disappeared across much of the planet. But in Tierra del Fuego, where the air and rain are among the cleanest on the planet, it grows wildly. “The hand lens is your entry point into the world of the miniature forests,” Lewis said. “Looking through a lens reminds you that there are other viewpoints from which we can see the world.” 1. Which title best describes Tierra del Fuego? A.A wonderland for tiny plants. B.A unique place for rare species. C.A top destination for hiking lovers. D.A remote land with different landscapes. 2. What quality is highly valued while exploring Omora Ethnobotanical Park? A.Curiosity and creativity. B.Quickness and confidence. C.Calmness and attentiveness. D.Determination and courage. 3. Which can best replace the underlined word “vulnerable”? A.Sensitive. B.Adaptable. C.Beneficial. D.Resistant. 4. What is the best title for the text? A.Eco-tourism in Tierra del Fuego B.An Encounter with Old Man’s Beard C.A Tiny Forest on the Tip of the World D.Start Your Journey of Discovery, Now! Passage 7 (23-24高一下·辽宁本溪·期末)For thousands of years, humans have raced to be the first to climb a peak, cross a frontier, or document a new species or landscape. Now in some cases, people are racing to be the last. In recent years, a growing industry has been stimulated by climate change — last-chance tourism. According to Eco Sustainable Solutions, a UK-based organic recycling and waste processing company last-chance tourism is a kind of tourism geared toward seeing the last of something due to climate change. As temperatures and water levels rise, this could mean seizing the last chance to see the Great Barrier Reef, an Arctic glacier and a remote island that is sinking. As millions of tourists rush to imperiled destinations, some are taking advantage of the increasing demand to spread environmental awareness. One tourist spot, the Sea of Ice in France, opened an exhibit in 2021 to educate visitors on glaciers and climate change. This educational push seems to be having an impact, as a 2023 survey showed that 80% of the visitors would try to learn more about the environment and how to protect it while 77% said that they would reduce their water and energy use. However, the last-chance tourism industry may become kind of our concern. As more and more people flood into these areas in a panic to see them before they are gone, they in fact contribute to the increased greenhouse gas emissions and over-tourism, leading to their destruction. Just as many scholars put it, last-chance tourism is a paradox (悖论). Although tourists may acknowledge the broader risks and importance of climate change, it’s even more important to connect the responsibility of the individual tourism to the future of our planet. It’s not just about understanding the need to stop climate change; it’s even more important to avoid making it worse. 1. What is last-chance tourism primarily driven by? A.Adventure seeking. B.Cultural exploration. C.Environmental awareness. D.Historical preservation. 2. What does the underlined word “imperiled” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A.Developed. B.Endangered. C.Deserted. D.Preserved. 3. What is suggested in addressing the negative impacts of last-chance tourism? A.Promoting cultural preservation efforts. B.Spreading awareness about climate change. C.Reducing individual contributions to climate change. D.Encouraging more tourists to visit imperiled destinations. 4. Which of the following can best describe last-chance tourism? A.It’s a stone to kill two birds. B.It’s a double-edged sword. C.It’s a life jacket in the stormy sea. D.It’s a solution once and for all. Passage 8 (23-24高一下·宁夏银川·期末)The sun is about to set when we reach our destination, the home of a nomadic (游牧的) herder (牧民) family. My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travelers in Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don’t knock on the door: when you approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly “Hold your dog.”, even if you don’t see a dog. We feast at the family home on one of the country’s most distinct and tasty dishes: khorkhog, or mutton cooked using hot rocks. This comes served with onions, a variety of berries, and milk-besides more plates of meat, all from the family’s own livestock (家畜). Mongolia is home to one of the world’s few remaining truly nomadic cultures. About a fifth of the population are herders, and nomadism is complexly woven into the country’s spirit. But modern life is catching up with the people on the grassland at rapid speed. This is in large part what my book is about: an outsider’s exploration of a society undergoing modernization while trying to hold fast to its deeply rooted traditional values. Many of the livestock here, especially the more valuable breeds such as horses, camels and cattle, are implanted with microchips that can be monitored via satellite-based services. “I would like to use the Internet more because it’s fun and useful; but the animals like it here. This is a good place for them,” Batbayer says when I ask if better Internet connectivity might influence where to move his livestock next. “I would never choose Facebook over the well-being of the animals.” 1. Which aspect of the herders does the author focus on in paragraph 1? A.Living conditions. B.Pet preference. C.Reading habits. D.Friendliness. 2. What do we know about nomadic culture? A.Herders have no access to fruits and vegetables. B.It is the world’s dominant culture. C.The majority of Mongolians are herders. D.Herders’ life is being modernized. 3. What can we infer from Batbayer’s words in the last paragraph? A.He refuses to use social media. B.He will no longer employ microchips. C.He puts the welfare of livestock at first. D.He will introduce more valuable breeds. 4. What is the text? A.A book review. B.A folk tale. C.a field report. D.A travel journal. Passage 9 (23-24高一下·山西朔州·阶段练习)Forget about “military-style travel” during which people tend to visit as many places as possible in the least amount of time. A more relaxing and leisurely alternative, such as “Citywalk”, is becoming the norm among urban youngsters. Unlike military-style travel, Citywalk is about wandering around a city on foot, feeling the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. It can be a special event where people start a journey led by tour guides or simply explore the streets. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the city’s history and culture. Citywalkers have shared their carefully planned routes on social media platforms, generating thousands of followers. Their posts usually include the time of the walk, and interesting places and restaurants along the way. Some posts are more like a food tour. Nan Xi, who recently moved from Beijing to Shanghai, said “I think Shanghai is a city perfect for Citywalk. There are big trees along the streets and shops selling different products, which is ideal for couples and friends to walk together and take photos.” After several Citywalk experiences, she signed up for a two-and-a-half-hour Citywalk priced at 88 yuan per person. A tour guide told the history of the buildings and streets along the way. “If it were me walking alone, I would simply find the streets artistic, but the tour that day helped me gain a better understanding of how Western culture blends in with (融入) the local culture in Shanghai,” she said. Another surprising benefit of the walk was that she has made friends with two of her fellow walkers. Lin Yi, a manager for an online platform for self-guided tours, thought Citywalk can help travelers learn about local culture and live as local people do, feeling the vibes of a city. “People who participate in Citywalks usually have similar tastes, and can have in-depth discussions with each other,” he said. 1. What is the main difference between military-style travel and Citywalk? A.The transport. B.The cost. C.The purpose. D.The equipment. 2. Why does Nan Xi think Shanghai is a city perfect for Citywalk? A.Because it is a perfect place to run shops. B.Because it provides great experiences in many ways. C.Because there are great things to do at weekends. D.Because ideal couples and friends often gather there. 3. What can be inferred from Nan Xi’s two-and-a-half-hour Citywalk? A.She thought it well worth a try. B.She went on the tour without company. C.She wouldn’t have found the artistic streets by herself. D.She knew how Western culture differed from the local culture in Shanghai. 4. What is the main idea of the article? A.Citywalk is a new trend in urban tourism. B.Citywalk can help travelers make new friends. C.Military-style travel is becoming more popular. D.Military-style travel has an advantage over Citywalk. Passage 10 (23-24高一下·福建莆田·期末)Vietnam now has more than 40,000 historical relics. These relics of various forms and history are treasures for future generations. However, hundreds of relics are severely damaged due to the negative influence of time, war and human activities. Vietnamese cultural departments and activists have tried to preserve the historical and cultural relics in the country. Head of Hanoi Relics Management Board, Nguyen DoanTuan, says rescue work must preserve the relics’ soul: “We cannot replace ruined construction with new materials. We must preserve its shape, size and style. We need to pay attention to every brick replaced so that it looks exactly like the original.” Most relics have to rely on tourist fee for repair and rescue work. Director of Van Mieu Cultural and Science Center, Dang Kim Ngoc, says that the relics must be promoted widely to attract more visitors and bring in more income for repair and preservation: “We provide constant guide services for visitors so that they understand more about our relics. At the same time, a natural surrounding of the relic has been ensured, including the grass field and garden to improve its scenic value.” The local government agreed that the relics must be turned to the community for shared efforts in the preservation work. Director of Vietnam Revolution Museum DangQuoc Quan, said that the community must be guided in the preservation and protection, “The UNESCO aims to let local community take part in the preservation of relics. We have seen limitations in the preservation of relics, especially festival related groups of buildings. This requires management and guidance by the government.” Nguyen ThiMinh Ly from the Department of Heritage says the community should be guided in proper behaviors towards relics: “This will ensure the protection of cultural relics in later generations. Creative restoration must be based on previous values.” Experts have called for a systematic guidance by the state in local level preservation while promoting creative thinking in restoration for each relic. 1.

With 27 sections and 58 historical sites, it was placed on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2014. Running from Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province in the south to Beijing in the north and connecting different river systems, the Grand Canal contributed greatly to ensuring that the Chinese primary economy thrived in past dynasties. The Grand Canal we see today was built section by section in different areas and dynasties before it was linked together by the Sui Dynasty (581 — 618). In 604 CE, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty toured Luoyang. The following year, he moved the capital to Luoyang and ordered a large-scale expansion of the canal. Due to the primitive building techniques, it took over six years to complete the project. About half the peasant builders (about 3,000,000) died of hard labor and hunger before it was finished. This project was thought to have been a waste of manpower and money, which resulted in the downfall of the Sui Dynasty. As a major transportation hub (枢纽), the Grand Canal connected the Yangtze, Yellow, Huaihe, Haihe, and Qiantang Rivers and flowed through Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with Hangzhou as its southernmost end. The Grand Canal, which joined the river systems from different directions, provided a good way to transport foods and goods from south to north. Just as importantly, it greatly improved the administration and defense of China as a whole and strengthened economic and cultural connections between north and south. Boating on the old Canal is one of the best ways to get a panoramic (全景的) view of the landscape of typical river towns in southern China, which include ancient dwellings, stone bridges of traditional designs and historical relics. Experiencing some of the local customs offers much delight to travelers. Tourists also have an opportunity to enjoy good food while appreciating the surrounding scenery. 1. What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph? A.A brief history of the Grand Canal. B.The whole system of the Grand Canal. C.A general introduction to the Grand Canal. D.The impact the Grand Canal had on the economy. 2. What is the credit of Emperor Yang according to the text? A.The establishment of the Sui Dynasty. B.The movement to build the canal. C.The economic prosperity in the Sui Dynasty. D.The connection of the sections of the Grand Canal. 3. What can we infer from the Grand Canal as an important transportation hub? A.It improved building techniques. B.It helped develop the nation steadily as a whole. C.It brought people convenience to travel around. D.It sped up China’s development in agriculture. 4. Why does the writer write the last paragraph? A.To suggest traveling along the old Grand Canal. B.To introduce the good food along the old Grand Canal. C.To show the historical relics tourists will enjoy in southern China. D.To paint a typical landscape of southern China. Passage 12 (23-24高一下·云南大理·期末)Chinese netizens recently expressed amazement at a map filled with thickly dotted signs clearly marking the country’s historic sites and cultural relics. The map was made by Wu Yunjie, who was born in the 1990s. Wu has a deep interest in cultural relics and history. When he was in college, he would often make use of his spare time to travel around the country, exploring and documenting ancient sites. In 2020, he started collecting information on cultural relic protection units and uploaded the data to the mapping software. As some of the information is not fully disclosed and many historical sites in far areas cannot be located specifically, Wu spent a lot of time on research and carrying out on-site visits. Now, the map includes nearly 10,000 historical landmarks with different colors standing for different kinds: Red signs show the cultural relic sites under state protection or the national-level museums, while green signs stand for the provincially protected historical sites. A lot of ancient temples, bridges and other architecture in the far areas are also marked on the map. A netizen posted, “I actually found the ancient tower around my house on the map!” However, in Wu’s eyes, the map is not perfect, as it recorded less than two percent of the over 760,000 immovable cultural relics registered in the country’s third national survey of cultural relics. But Wu has been working on improving it. “If possible, I’d also like to document the cultural relics that have been lost overseas. Those treasures may not be able to return to their homeland for the time being, but the stories that they carry are what we need to see.” 1. What can we learn about Wu Yunjie? A.He worked as a software engineer. B.He developed a mapping software. C.He had a deep interest in travelling. D.He was a young responsible netizen. 2. What does the underlined word “disclosed” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Applied B.Spread. C.Discovered. D.Understood. 3. Why are a netizen’s words quoted in paragraph 4? A.To show the convenience of the map. B.To introduce how to use the map properly. C.To prove the map is believable and informative. D.To explain the meaning of different colors on the map. 4. What does Wu Yunjie plan to do? A.Include cultural relics lost overseas in his map. B.Bring cultural treasures back to China from abroad. C.Make the map perfect by adding dots of other colors. D.Solve technical problems and make money with the map. Passage 13 (23-24高一下·广东广州·期末)Puffins are adorable birds with big, colorful beaks (喙) that live in grassy cliffs in the Far North. One summer day, my husband and I boarded the boat to Flatey Island, eager to catch a glimpse of these charming creatures. As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick. By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours. We huddled under the shelter of a warehouse, wondering what to do. Then a woman wearing mittens (手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. “Would you like to come to our house for lunch?” It was a small yellow house at the edge of the village. It was full of people, young and old. They made room for us at the table. We ate and drank a lot, and they told us all about the puffins and the other birds on the island. It was almost time for the boat to leave, our new friend Sigrid walked in the rain with us to the puffins’ cliffs. We sat still on the wet rocks, watching the birds fly right toward us, cocking their heads as if wondering what we were doing on their island. They made us laugh. When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said. It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day. 1.

S. possesses a diversity (多样性) of nature. For most of her life, Joy Ryan never saw the scenery beyond her home state of Ohio. Then, when she was in her mid-eighties, her grandson Brad Ryan decided to take her on a journey to all of the U. S. National Parks, which took eight years to complete. At the age of 93, Grandma Joy has finally seen all 63 parks, ending her journey in the National Park of American Samoa. “When I learned she had never seen the great wildernesses of America-deserts, mountains, oceans, I decided to intervene (干预) in some way,” Brad says. This idea inspired their first trip to the Great Smoky Mountains. However, once they were on the road, Brad realized that they could visit more parks that were nearby. Over the years, they managed to see all of the famous sights at Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods, and so on. But Brad values the time spent with his grandmother just as much as the amazing places they were able to visit. Despite Grandma Joy’s older age, she was able to hike mountains. Brad regards her love for life as the key to her good health. She is grateful for each new day and is always excited for the next journey. Finally, their long journey across the U.S. came to an end with American Samoa. “I am thankful every morning for giving me another day,” Grandma Joy shares. “And you’re your choice whether you’re going to have a rainy day or a sunny day. So, smile at everybody, and let everybody know you’re having a whale of a time.” While her tour of the U. S. has come to a close, she and her grandson are not done traveling.

A month after our trip, I went to Las Vegas for my birthday. I had a lot on my plate and was under a lot of stress; I just wanted to get away and relax for a while. While I was sitting by the pool, an idea suddenly came to me. I’d always wanted to see the Greek island of Santorini, its white houses and buildings, and the blue water surrounding it. Therefore, the idea of a two-week European vacation alone was born. It was something I never thought I’d be planning this soon in my life. I had always thought, if it did ever happen, it would be when I was retired and old. I would lie if I said I wasn’t scared. I’d driven alone across the US before, from California to New Jersey, but traveling to other countries whose languages weren’t the same as mine terrified me. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to communicate with anyone, especially if I got lost somewhere. But I soon realized that if I wanted to follow my dreams, I had to step out of my comfort zone. And it dawned on me that I was scared, and if I let fear take control of me, I’d never get anywhere. As I searched for other places to visit on my trip, I found Mykonos, Greece, which I realized I liked just as much as I liked Santorini. When I arrived in Europe, it was like I was inside a dream. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and what I was experiencing. The best part was the bus ride to Venice. As I rode on the bus and gazed at every new thing I saw, I was having the time of my life. It was nice to see people, young and old, riding their bikes to wherever they needed to go. I thought the architecture of the houses and the buildings was so charming, but seeing people doing their routine was the best part for me. Some people might say, “It’s not a big deal; it’s just Venice. Thousands of people go there every day.” But it was more than that to me. It was about having a dream and when it was time for it to come true, not to be afraid to let it happen. When I did, the reward was more than I could have possibly imagined. 1. What do the underlined words “an idea” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.Visiting Europe alone. B.Having a vacation in Los Angeles. C.Going to Las Vegas for a birthday trip. D.Taking a two-week vacation in Venice. 2. Why was the author terrified when she planned her trip? A.She had never traveled alone before. B.She was feeling very stressed because of her job. C.She got lost in a foreign country before. D.She wasn’t sure whether she would be able to communicate with foreigners. 3. Which of the following is true? A.The best part was the bus ride to Mykonos. B.The author liked Santorini as much as Mykonos. C.The architecture and the buildings were the best part for the author. D.The author felt like she was inside a dream when she was driving across the US. 4. Why was the trip to Venice a big deal to the author? A.She realized the importance of her family. B.She learned more about herself during the trip. C.She figured out how to live a positive life. D.She stepped out of her comfort zone to realize her dreams. 高一下学期 单元话题 梯度训练 15 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
