(这里还有一些令人惊叹的风景，包括伊图里河和埃普卢河上的瀑布。)”可知，Okapi Wildlife Reserve的特色是有一些迷人的自然风光。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“The following properties which the World Heritage Committee has decided to include on the List of World Heritage are in danger according to Article 11 (4) of the Convention. (根据《公约》第11条第（4）款的规定，世界遗产委员会已决定将以下遗产地列入《世界遗产名录》，但它们目前处于危险之中。)”可知，这四个遗产地的共同点是都处于濒危状态。故选A。 B Each year at Girl Scout summer camp, I, as a kid, expected most was the closing campfire, a few hours of silliness that marked our final evening together. All week, my teammates and I had been addicted to our skit (滑稽短剧) performance, editing lines and practicing scenes. Skits and songs are deeply rooted in the camp experience. The days might be all about sports or nature, but nighttime entertainment is a kid’s dream. Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential. In the camp, social rule disappears and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let their hair down. They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to show at school or at home. It’s a decade ago when I performed as a camp member, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building view. But I now realize this rich camp tradition has left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖). Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer. camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in the improvising (即兴创作). And remember, “The more funny noises and childlike humor, the better.” 4. What can we know about skit performances from Paragraph 1 and 2? A. They are to educate the audience. B. They are to show students’ talent and skills. C. They are to make students compete with each other. D. They are mainly to entertain and engage the audience. 5. Which word has the similar meaning to the underlined phrase “let their hair down”? A. Relax. B. Defend. C. Ignore. D. Refuse. 6. What can be learned about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She learned a variety of skit skills in the camp. B. She understood social rules better in the camp. C. She became broad-minded because of camp skits. D. She developed a competitive spirit through camp skits. 7. What does the author advise us to do at last? A. To gain more childlike humor. B. Try to step out of the comfort zone. C. To accept everyone’s imperfection. D. To participate in more competitions. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者童年时在夏令营中通过篝火晚会上的滑稽短剧表演，培养幽默感、建立自信并学会接受他人怪癖的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential.(类似于一场才艺表演，一些表演有教育意义，但大多数时候，它们只是让人发笑。天赋并不重要，通过互动让观众参与其中才是至关重要的。)”可知，短剧表演主要是为了娱乐观众并让观众参与进来。故选D项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语前的“Shy kids come out of their shells(害羞的孩子会走出他们的壳)”可知，此处讲述的是夏令营活动的给孩子们带来的影响，结合and可知，划线短语部分应是对冷酷的孩子的影响；结合划线短语后的“They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to show at school or at home.(他们可以打开这扇门，让自己看到在学校或家里他们觉得不安全的那一部分。)”可知，这些冷酷的孩子打开这山门，看到学校或家里觉得不安全的部分，也就是这些孩子们打开心扉，放下戒备，由此可知，划线短语的意思应与“放松、放下戒备”意义相近。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks.(通过营地短剧，我培养了幽默感，在众人面前建立了自信，还学会了接受他人的怪癖。)”可知，作者因为营地短剧变得更加豁达包容。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in the improvising.(接受这种不适感，邀请你所爱的人一起参与即兴创作。)”可知，作者提议我们尝试接受原本不愿接受的事，建议我们走出舒适区。故选B项。 C China is betting on its successful hybrid rice varieties to fight food shortage in Africa. “We’re no longer suffering from hunger,” said 55-year-old Georges Ranaivomanana, a Madagascan farmer who took the lead in planting Chinese hybrid rice in his town of Mahitsy. Georges told Xinhua that he hoped that all Madagascan farmers would use the seeds to raise their living standards. China has been helping African countries develop productive rice farming for years with its hybrid rice. For farmers on the continent like Ranaivomanana, they are “very grateful” to the Chinese as the hybrid rice is the key to better food security and higher incomes. In May, the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Centre opened a research centre in Madagascar to select hybrid rice varieties based on the island nation’s diverse ecological environment, in an effort to find more productive crops for a continent long troubled by insufficient grain output. In the northwestern Nigerian state of Kebbi, Chinese expert Wang Xuemin stood in a rice field, surrounded by green rice plants. “This year, we are using a new technology,” he said, adding that “it can significantly reduce labor and other costs.” “The land, climate and rice farming methods in Nigeria are very different from those in China. We had a lot of problems at the beginning,” said the 51-year-old who has already been in Nigeria for 16 years. In 2006, after Wang and his colleagues had sown the seeds, their field management techniques and large-scale farming equipment could not adapt to the operating environment, and hundreds of hectares of rice fields were almost completely taken over by weeds. “At that time, we came to realize that blindly copying the Chinese model was not feasible (可行的). It was necessary to constantly innovate our techniques to fit the local situation in Africa,” Wang said. After more than ten years of research and innovation, the Nigerian farm now becomes a major training and mechanized production centre in the country, training more than 1,000 farmers and agricultural machinery management staff. 8. What’s African farmers’ attitude towards Chinese hybrid rice? A Skeptical. B. Uncaring. C. Appreciative. D. Disappointed. 9. When did Wang Xuemin come to Nigeria? A. At the age of 35. B. At the age of 51. C. At the age of 55. D. At the age of 67. 10. What do Wang Xuemin’s words imply? A. Chinese technology of hybrid rice can’t be applied in Africa. B. Different technologies should be applied to different areas. C. Chinese experts contribute to raising African living standards. D. Chinese technology of hybrid rice wastes more labor and costs. 11. Which is the proper title for this passage? A. Why China’s Hybrid Rice Is Suitable for Africa B. The Sowing of Hybrid Rice Varies from Climate C. How Africans Develop Food Import D. China’s Hybrid Rice Sows Hope for Africa 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本文主要讲述了中国利用杂交水稻技术帮助非洲解决粮食短缺的问题。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“China has been helping African countries develop productive rice farming for years with its hybrid rice. For farmers on the continent like Ranaivomanana, they are “very grateful” to the Chinese as the hybrid rice is the key to better food security and higher incomes.(多年来，中国一直在用杂交水稻帮助非洲国家发展高产水稻种植。对于像Ranaivomanana这样的非洲大陆农民来说，他们“非常感谢”中国人，因为杂交水稻是改善粮食安全和提高收入的关键)”可知，非洲农民对中国杂交水稻的态度是充满感激的。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中““The land, climate and rice farming methods in Nigeria are very different from those in China. We had a lot of problems at the beginning,” said the 51-year-old who has already been in Nigeria for 16 years.(“尼日利亚的土地、气候和水稻种植方式与中国非常不同。一开始我们遇到了很多问题，”这位51岁的老人说，他已经在尼日利亚待了16年)”可知，王学民51岁时已经在尼日利亚待了16年了，由此可知，他是35岁时来尼日利亚的。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““At that time, we came to realize that blindly copying the Chinese model was not feasible (可行的). It was necessary to constantly innovate our techniques to fit the local situation in Africa,” Wang said. (那时，我们逐渐认识到，盲目照搬中国模式是不可行的。有必要不断创新我们的技术，以适应非洲的当地情况)可知，王学民认为非洲和中国的情况不同，盲目照搬中国模式是不可行的，应该不断创新技术，以适应非洲的当地情况，由此可知，从王学民的话中我们可以推知，不同的地域应该采用不同的技术。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段内容“China is betting on its successful hybrid rice varieties to fight food shortage in Africa.(中国正押注于其成功的杂交水稻品种来应对非洲的粮食短缺)”和第三段中“For farmers on the continent like Ranaivomanana, they are “very grateful” to the Chinese as the hybrid rice is the key to better food security and higher incomes. (对于像Ranaivomanana这样的非洲大陆农民来说，他们“非常感谢”中国人，因为杂交水稻是改善粮食安全和提高收入的关键)”可知，本文主要讲述了中国利用杂交水稻技术帮助非洲解决粮食短缺的问题，杂交水稻成为非洲农民改善粮食安全和提高收入的关键，“China’s Hybrid Rice Sows Hope for Africa”意为“中国杂交水稻为非洲播下希望”，选项能够概括文章主要内容。故选D项。 D About 900 miles off the coast of Chile, scientists have discovered an underwater mountain home to primitive ecosystems that they believe host at least 20 previously unknown species. The team mapped a 1.9-mile tall seamount, which is part of the Nazca Ridge (NR), an underwater mountain range in the southeast Pacific Ocean. The potentially new species that have yet to be officially confirmed include a sea urchin, starfish and a squat lobster. The findings will be submitted to the Ocean Census, which promotes the discovery of new sea species for the confirmation. The team also documented rare sightings of the delightfully named Casper octopus and recorded a live squid, a creature that had only previously been studied from a few dead samples. The discoveries are the result of a 28-day expedition (考察) to the understudied NR, led by Schmidt Ocean Institute. Before this mission, the height and the exact location of the mountain range weren’t known, researchers said. New technology allowed researchers to study the complex depth with greater accuracy than previously possible. Researchers used a remotely operated vehicle named Su Bastian to gather images to map the sea floor. Only 26% of the seafloor has been mapped with such high resolution, said Schmidt Ocean Institute’s director Jyotika Virmani. Through the map, each expedition “let us have a better understanding of the unknown seabed and made us focus more on the lives on our home planet,” she said. The Institute’s two prior expeditions to the NR and the neighboring Salasy Gómez Ridge (SyGR), in January and February, 2024, led to the discovery of 150 new species. Both mountain ranges are in the high seas and lie outside of any country. They’ re being threatened since there are the effects of climate change, plastic pollution, overfishing and potential deep-sea mining. We hope the region containing the NR and the SyGR is a candidate to become a sea protected area that could protect sea life from activities such as commercial fishing or oil drilling. We hope the data gathered from these expeditions will help inform future policies, safeguarding these undeveloped environments for future generations. 12. What will the team do for the potentially new species? A. Find a sea floor for them. B. Help do species identification. C. Return them to the NR. D. Document them for dead samples. 13. What can be inferred about the NR? A. It had been well-studied before the expedition. B. Researchers had known its rare species before. C. Researchers touched its every corner in person. D. New technology helped explore it fruitfully. 14. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the NR and the SyGR? A. Their ecosystems are a great concern. B. They both became sea protected areas. C. They are free from deep-sea mining activities. D. Their locations promote commercial fishing. 15. In which column of a magazine can we probably read this passage? A. Tourism and culture. B. Sports and Fitness. C. Nature and Biodiversity. D. History and Traditions. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家在距离智利海岸约900英里地方发现了一座水下山脉，在这里有许多未知物种，这次考察提供的信息将有助于未来的政策制定，以保护这些未开发的环境。   【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The potentially new species that have yet to be officially confirmed include a sea urchin, starfish and a squat lobster. The findings will be submitted to the Ocean Census, which promotes the discovery of new sea species for the confirmation. (尚未得到官方确认的潜在新物种包括海胆、海星和矮脚龙虾。这些发现将提交给海洋普查，以确认新海洋物种的发现)”可知，对于潜在的新物种，研究小组将帮助进行物种鉴定。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Before this mission, the height and the exact location of the mountain range weren’t known, researchers said. New technology allowed researchers to study the complex depth with greater accuracy than previously possible. Researchers used a remotely operated vehicle named Su Bastian to gather images to map the sea floor.(研究人员说，在这次任务之前，我们不知道山脉的高度和确切位置。新技术使研究人员能够比以前更准确地研究复杂的深度。研究人员使用名为SuBastian的远程操作车辆收集图像以绘制海底地图。)”可知，这次任务之前，研究人员不知道山脉的高度和确切位置，而新技术可以帮助人们收集图像以绘制海底地图，对纳斯卡海岭进行卓有成效的探索。故选D项。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“They’re being threatened since there are the effects of climate change, plastic pollution, overfishing and potential deep-sea mining. We hope the region containing the NR and the SyGR is a candidate to become a sea protected area that could protect sea life from activities such as commercial fishing or oil drilling. (由于气候变化、塑料污染、过度捕捞和潜在的深海采矿的影响，它们正受到威胁。我们希望包含NR和SyGR的区域成为海洋保护区的候选区域，以保护海洋生物免受商业捕鱼或石油钻探等活动的影响。)”可知，NR和SyGR的生态系统受到诸多威胁，是个令人担忧的问题。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其第一段“About 900 miles off the coast of Chile, scientists have discovered an underwater mountain home to primitive ecosystems that they believe host at least 20 previously unknown species.(在距离智利海岸约900英里的地方，科学家们发现了一座水下山脉，那里是原始生态系统的家园，他们认为那里至少有20种以前未知的物种。)”可知，文章主要讲述了在智利海岸外约 900 英里处的水下山脉发现了许多原始生态系统和潜在新物种，以及山脉受到的威胁等，围绕自然和生物多样性展开。因此，可以推测这篇文章可能出现在杂志的“自然与生物多样性”栏目。故选C项。 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever forgotten to lock the door of your house?

Whenever something didn’t go his way, Jimmy would shout, stamp his feet, and say some mean words to people. For example, one day at school, Jimmy’s classmate accidentally knocked over his lunch tray (托盘). Jimmy yelled at his classmate, ignoring the tray that had fallen to the floor, and stomped (迈着重重的步子走) angrily to the corner of the canteen. Another time, his little brother borrowed one of his favorite books without asking. When Jimmy found out, he screamed at his brother, seized the book back, and threw it across the room, which made his brother cry. Such behavior worried his parents, who wanted to help Jimmy learn to control his temper (脾气). One night, they sat him down and handed him a special notebook and a set of colorful pens. “Jimmy,” his mother said, “every time you feel angry, I want you to write about it in this notebook. Write down what happened, how you felt, and what you did.” Jimmy thought this was a strange request. He looked at the notebook and pens. “Writing about my anger?” he thought. But he agreed. The next day, when Jimmy was at school, his friend accidentally bumped (撞) into him, causing him to drop his books. Jimmy felt the familiar increase of anger rising inside him. He was just about to shout when he remembered the notebook in his backpack. He took it out, sat down, and began to write. He wrote about the bump, how it made him feel, and what he wanted to do. By the time he finished writing, he felt much calmer. This continued every day. At first, his notebook filled up quickly with annoying incidents. But as the days passed, the notebook saw fewer and fewer intense stories. Jimmy found that writing down his feelings helped him to control his temper. By the end of the month, Jimmy noticed he was writing in his notebook less and less. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One day, Jimmy realized he hadn’t written anything in the notebook all week and told it to his parents. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jimmy was surprised to be asked to write something positive in his notebook. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One day, Jimmy realized he hadn’t written anything in the notebook all week and told it to his parents. They smiled warmly, proud of the progress he had made. His father said, “That’s great, Jimmy! It means you’re learning to manage your anger.” Jimmy felt a sense of accomplishment, realizing how much he had grown. “Dear Jimmy, since you have no anger to write, why not write something positive in your notebook?” his mother said. Jimmy was surprised to be asked to write something positive in his notebook. “Why?” he asked curiously. “Because,” his mother explained, “it’s important to celebrate the good times too. Write about things that make you happy or proud of yourself. It’ll help you focus on the positive aspects of life.” Jimmy nodded, understanding the wisdom in her words. From then on, his notebook became a place where he recorded both his struggles and his victories, helping him navigate through life with a balanced perspective. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小男孩吉米易怒，常因小事发脾气。父母担忧，给他一本特殊笔记本和彩色笔，建议他每次生气时写下事发经过、感受和行动。吉米照做，逐渐发现记录情绪有助于控制脾气。随着时间推移，笔记本里记录的事情越来越少，吉米也发现自己发脾气的次数减少了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“有一天，吉米意识到他整个星期都没有在笔记本上写任何东西，就把这件事告诉了他的父母。”可知，第一段可描写吉米学会了控制自己的愤怒，妈妈提出了新的要求。 ②由第二段首句内容“吉米被要求在他的笔记本上写一些积极的东西，这让他很惊讶。”可知，第二段可描写吉米理解了妈妈的用意，明白了她话语中的智慧，笔记本就成了记录他的挣扎和胜利的地方。 2.续写线索：父母为吉米的成就感到骄傲——妈妈提出了新的要求——理解了妈妈的用意——笔记本有了新的用途 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①控制你的愤怒：manage your anger/control your anger ②要求：ask/demand/request ③专注于：focus on/concentrate on 情绪类 ①热情地：warmly/passionately ②高兴的：happy/pleased 【点睛】[高分句型1] One day, Jimmy realized he hadn’t written anything in the notebook all week and told it to his parents. (运用了省略连接词that的宾语从句) [高分句型2] Jimmy felt a sense of accomplishment, realizing how much he had grown.(运用了现在分词作伴随状语和how引导宾语从句) [高分句型3] Write about things that make you happy or proud of yourself.(运用了关系代词that引导限制性定语从句) 听力1.

B Each year at Girl Scout summer camp, I, as a kid, expected most was the closing campfire, a few hours of silliness that marked our final evening together. All week, my teammates and I had been addicted to our skit (滑稽短剧) performance, editing lines and practicing scenes. Skits and songs are deeply rooted in the camp experience. The days might be all about sports or nature, but nighttime entertainment is a kid’s dream. Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential. In the camp, social rule disappears and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let their hair down. They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to show at school or at home. It’s a decade ago when I performed as a camp member, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building view. But I now realize this rich camp tradition has left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖). Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer. camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in the improvising (即兴创作). And remember, “The more funny noises and childlike humor, the better.” 4. What can we know about skit performances from Paragraph 1 and 2? A. They are to educate the audience. B. They are to show students’ talent and skills. C. They are to make students compete with each other. D. They are mainly to entertain and engage the audience. 5. Which word has the similar meaning to the underlined phrase “let their hair down”? A. Relax. B. Defend. C. Ignore. D. Refuse. 6. What can be learned about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She learned a variety of skit skills in the camp. B. She understood social rules better in the camp. C. She became broad-minded because of camp skits. D. She developed a competitive spirit through camp skits. 7. What does the author advise us to do at last? A. To gain more childlike humor. B. Try to step out of the comfort zone. C. To accept everyone’s imperfection. D. To participate in more competitions. C China is betting on its successful hybrid rice varieties to fight food shortage in Africa. “We’re no longer suffering from hunger,” said 55-year-old Georges Ranaivomanana, a Madagascan farmer who took the lead in planting Chinese hybrid rice in his town of Mahitsy. Georges told Xinhua that he hoped that all Madagascan farmers would use the seeds to raise their living standards. China has been helping African countries develop productive rice farming for years with its hybrid rice. For farmers on the continent like Ranaivomanana, they are “very grateful” to the Chinese as the hybrid rice is the key to better food security and higher incomes. In May, the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Centre opened a research centre in Madagascar to select hybrid rice varieties based on the island nation’s diverse ecological environment, in an effort to find more productive crops for a continent long troubled by insufficient grain output. In the northwestern Nigerian state of Kebbi, Chinese expert Wang Xuemin stood in a rice field, surrounded by green rice plants. “This year, we are using a new technology,” he said, adding that “it can significantly reduce labor and other costs.” “The land, climate and rice farming methods in Nigeria are very different from those in China. We had a lot of problems at the beginning,” said the 51-year-old who has already been in Nigeria for 16 years. In 2006, after Wang and his colleagues had sown the seeds, their field management techniques and large-scale farming equipment could not adapt to the operating environment, and hundreds of hectares of rice fields were almost completely taken over by weeds. “At that time, we came to realize that blindly copying the Chinese model was not feasible (可行的). It was necessary to constantly innovate our techniques to fit the local situation in Africa,” Wang said. After more than ten years of research and innovation, the Nigerian farm now becomes a major training and mechanized production centre in the country, training more than 1,000 farmers and agricultural machinery management staff. 8. What’s African farmers’ attitude towards Chinese hybrid rice? A. Skeptical. B. Uncaring. C. Appreciative. D. Disappointed. 9. When did Wang Xuemin come to Nigeria? A. At the age of 35. B. At the age of 51. C. At the age of 55. D. At the age of 67. 10. What do Wang Xuemin’s words imply? A. Chinese technology of hybrid rice can’t be applied in Africa. B. Different technologies should be applied to different areas. C. Chinese experts contribute to raising African living standards. D. Chinese technology of hybrid rice wastes more labor and costs. 11. Which is the proper title for this passage? A. Why China’s Hybrid Rice Is Suitable for Africa B. The Sowing of Hybrid Rice Varies from Climate C. How Africans Develop Food Import D. China’s Hybrid Rice Sows Hope for Africa D About 900 miles off the coast of Chile, scientists have discovered an underwater mountain home to primitive ecosystems that they believe host at least 20 previously unknown species. The team mapped a 1.9-mile tall seamount, which is part of the Nazca Ridge (NR), an underwater mountain range in the southeast Pacific Ocean. The potentially new species that have yet to be officially confirmed include a sea urchin, starfish and a squat lobster. The findings will be submitted to the Ocean Census, which promotes the discovery of new sea species for the confirmation. The team also documented rare sightings of the delightfully named Casper octopus and recorded a live squid, a creature that had only previously been studied from a few dead samples. The discoveries are the result of a 28-day expedition (考察) to the understudied NR, led by Schmidt Ocean Institute. Before this mission, the height and the exact location of the mountain range weren’t known, researchers said. New technology allowed researchers to study the complex depth with greater accuracy than previously possible. Researchers used a remotely operated vehicle named Su Bastian to gather images to map the sea floor. Only 26% of the seafloor has been mapped with such high resolution, said Schmidt Ocean Institute’s director Jyotika Virmani. Through the map, each expedition “let us have a better understanding of the unknown seabed and made us focus more on the lives on our home planet,” she said. The Institute’s two prior expeditions to the NR and the neighboring Salasy Gómez Ridge (SyGR), in January and February, 2024, led to the discovery of 150 new species. Both mountain ranges are in the high seas and lie outside of any country. They’ re being threatened since there are the effects of climate change, plastic pollution, overfishing and potential deep-sea mining. We hope the region containing the NR and the SyGR is a candidate to become a sea protected area that could protect sea life from activities such as commercial fishing or oil drilling. We hope the data gathered from these expeditions will help inform future policies, safeguarding these undeveloped environments for future generations. 12. What will the team do for the potentially new species? A. Find a sea floor for them. B. Help do species identification. C. Return them to the NR. D. Document them for dead samples. 13. What can be inferred about the NR? A. It had been well-studied before the expedition. B. Researchers had known its rare species before. C Researchers touched its every corner in person. D. New technology helped explore it fruitfully. 14. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the NR and the SyGR? A. Their ecosystems are a great concern. B. They both became sea protected areas. C. They are free from deep-sea mining activities. D. Their locations promote commercial fishing. 15. In which column of a magazine can we probably read this passage? A. Tourism and culture. B. Sports and Fitness. C. Nature and Biodiversity. D. History and Traditions. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever forgotten to lock the door of your house?

He got angry very easily. Whenever something didn’t go his way, Jimmy would shout, stamp his feet, and say some mean words to people. For example, one day at school, Jimmy’s classmate accidentally knocked over his lunch tray (托盘). Jimmy yelled at his classmate, ignoring the tray that had fallen to the floor, and stomped (迈着重重的步子走) angrily to the corner of the canteen. Another time, his little brother borrowed one of his favorite books without asking. When Jimmy found out, he screamed at his brother, seized the book back, and threw it across the room, which made his brother cry. Such behavior worried his parents, who wanted to help Jimmy learn to control his temper (脾气). One night, they sat him down and handed him a special notebook and a set of colorful pens. “Jimmy,” his mother said, “every time you feel angry, I want you to write about it in this notebook. Write down what happened, how you felt, and what you did.” Jimmy thought this was a strange request. He looked at the notebook and pens. “Writing about my anger?” he thought. But he agreed. The next day, when Jimmy was at school, his friend accidentally bumped (撞) into him, causing him to drop his books. Jimmy felt the familiar increase of anger rising inside him. He was just about to shout when he remembered the notebook in his backpack. He took it out, sat down, and began to write. He wrote about the bump, how it made him feel, and what he wanted to do. By the time he finished writing, he felt much calmer. This continued every day. At first his notebook filled up quickly with annoying incidents. But as the days passed, the notebook saw fewer and fewer intense stories. Jimmy found that writing down his feelings helped him to control his temper. By the end of the month, Jimmy noticed he was writing in his notebook less and less. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One day, Jimmy realized he hadn’t written anything in the notebook all week and told it to his parents. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jimmy was surprised to be asked to write something positive in his notebook. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1.
