It consists of more than a dozen of regular markets, with some of the most famous happening in Camden Lock, a legendary area in Camden Town. The Camden markets draw in 250, 000 tourists every week. But believe it or not, the Camden markets are a relatively new addition to London, as the area surrounding Camden Lock was used primarily for agricultural and industrial purposes since before the 1800s. Camden Market Highlights Camden Lock Village Out of all the markets located in Camden, it is perhaps the most famous. These covered markets are full packed full of all sorts of unique and handmade items. Camden Lock Market Not just limited to clothing, here you can also find food stalls offering food from all over the world, as well as handmade jewellery, second-hand clothing, books, and other random household items you won't find anywhere else in the city.

Camden High Street It is a highly popular shopping area, and is packed full of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, many of which feature some interesting designs and logos on their facades (正面) that are worth taking a photo of. As a matter of fact, no Camden Town photo collection would be complete without a shot of the massive dragon at Camden High Street.

(这是一个非常受欢迎的购物区，到处都是独立的商店、酒吧和餐馆，其中许多都有一些有趣的设计和标志，值得拍照留念。事实上，没有卡姆登高街巨龙的照片，卡姆登镇的摄影集就不完整。)” 可知Camden High Street有很多值得拍照的有趣设计和标志，还有巨龙，很可能受到摄影爱好者喜爱，故选A。 B Finns love to read. It’s their favorite thing to do in their time off. The country is a little smaller than Montana, but its library network is extensive, with hundreds of central libraries, branch libraries and mobile libraries. I was two years old when my family settled in Porvoo, a small city of around 50,000 people about an hour away from the capital, Helsinki. One thing it didn’t have were books in my family’s language — my first language, Albanian. I can’t say that I was ever encouraged to pick up a book. We didn’t do that in my family. But once I learned how to read Finnish, I never stopped, becoming a frequent sight at the small school library. I was 10 years old when the new building of the main library of Porvoo opened its doors to the public. When I visited for the first time, I was so in awe that I cried. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen: endless shelves carrying tens of thousands of books, records, movies, magazines and newspapers. And the best part was that everything was free. I rarely, however, borrowed a book, and if I did, I kept it hidden. To this day, I don’t know why that was, exactly — why it felt wrong and scary somehow to bring books home with me. Maybe I wanted to keep books to myself, a secret of some kind. Or perhaps I was just scared that something would happen to the books if they were somewhere they didn’t seem to belong. But unlike the real world, books never distressed me — even crime, horror and thriller titles — and I read everything. I would pick up a book from the shelf, sit down at a table, read, then return the book to its place and continue the next day from where I’d left off. I spent as much time as I could in the new library — falling in love with books and stories and the Finnish language, gaining confidence as a speaker and as a child of immigrant parents, and dreaming of writing a book of my own one day, slowly growing from a reader to a writer. 4. What problem did the author meet with arriving in Finland? A. He had few friends to make with. B. He couldn’t read books in Finnish. C. He felt discouraged to read a book. D. He couldn’t find available libraries. 5. What can be inferred about the newly-built library of Porvoo? A. It never failed to impress. B. It took a decade to build. C. It received the most readers. D. It aroused readers’ creativity. 6. Which is closest in meaning to “distressed” in paragraph 4? A. dressed. B. surprised. C. satisfied. D. upset. 7. What’s the best title for the text? A. Read My Way Through Porvoo B. Experience Cultures of Finland C. Pursue My Dreams in Helsinki D. Recall Old Days in Albania 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一家来到波尔沃定居，作者通过阅读来融入当地的生活的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One thing it didn’t have were books in my family’s language — my first language, Albanian. I can’t say that I was ever encouraged to pick up a book. We didn’t do that in my family. But once I learned how to read Finnish, I never stopped, becoming a frequent sight at the small school library.(有一样东西是没有的，那就是用我的母语阿尔巴尼亚语写的书。我不能说我曾经被鼓励去拿起一本书。我们家没有这样做。但是，一旦我学会了如何阅读芬兰语，我就再也没有停下来，成为学校小图书馆的常客)”可知，作者到达芬兰时看不懂芬兰语的书。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen: endless shelves carrying tens of thousands of books, records, movies, magazines and newspapers. And the best part was that everything was free. (这是我见过的最美的东西：无尽的架子上放着成千上万的书籍、唱片、电影、杂志和报纸。最棒的是一切都是免费的)”可知，波尔沃新建的图书馆总是给人留下深刻的印象。故选A。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Or perhaps I was just scared that something would happen to the books if they were somewhere they didn’t seem to belong.(或许我只是害怕如果这些书被放到了它们似乎不属于的地方，会发生什么事)”以及后文“even crime, horror and thriller titles — and I read everything(甚至是犯罪、恐怖和惊悚小说——我什么都读)”可知，上文提到了作者担心书籍出现在不属于它们的地方会发生什么事情，结合“But unlike the real world”中but表示转折，说明但与现实世界不同的是，书从来不会让作者沮丧——即使是犯罪、恐怖和惊悚类的书——作者什么书都读。故划线词意思是“沮丧的”。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“I was 10 years old when the new building of the main library of Porvoo opened its doors to the public. When I visited for the first time, I was so in awe that I cried.(当波尔沃主图书馆的新楼向公众开放时，我才10岁。当我第一次去参观的时候，我被吓哭了)”结合文章主要讲述了作者一家来到波尔沃定居，作者通过阅读来融入当地的生活的经历。从而推知，A选项“在波尔沃一路阅读”最符合文章标题。故选A。 C By the end of this decade, countries and private companies might start mining the Moon. Now is the time to create the rules and regulations that will protect humanity’s shared future in space and ensure the Moon remains a symbol and inspiration for generations to come. This has started a new race to the Moon. Right now, all supplies for space exploration come from Earth, which makes things like water and fuel very expensive. By the time a single litre of water gets to the Moon, it costs more than gold. But if we can turn the water ice on the Moon into hydrogen and oxygen, we can refuel spacecraft there. This could make trips to farther places in space, like Mars, much easier. When we take things from the Moon, dust gets kicked up. Since the Moon has no atmosphere, the dust can go very far. The surface material is “space weathered” and not as bright as the material underneath. If we disturb the dust, some parts of the Moon might look brighter, while others might look duller. Managing the dust will be important for making sure mining is sustainable and doesn’t cause too much disruption. On the moon, you all wish you could find a job with good safety standards, fair pay, and reasonable hours. But you can’t. You are stuck in space. British astrobiologist Charles S. Cockell says this could lead to similar problems on the earth. Powerful people might be able to take advantage of workers who have nowhere else to go. There are some other possible dangers of starting Moon mining without thinking about the risks to workers. Working in low gravity can cause health problems. Lunar miners might have bone and muscle loss, kidney and heart damage, and weak immune systems. Besides, lunar miners will also be alone for a long time and face a lot of psychological stress. The Moon could be a great place for human exploration and a source of resources to help life on Earth and beyond. But we need to learn from history and avoid uncontrolled exploitation (开采). Before we start mining the Moon, we must make strong regulations that focus on fairness, safety, and human rights. 8. What is the main purpose of establishing rules and regulations for lunar mining? A. To ensure that lunar mining is profitable for private companies. B. To prevent any country from claiming ownership of the Moon. C. To facilitate the transportation of supplies from Earth to the Moon. D To protect the shared future in space and preserve the Moon as a symbol of inspiration. 9. What is a potential benefit of turning water ice on the Moon into hydrogen and oxygen? A. It will rocket the cost of space exploration. B. It will create new jobs for people on Earth. C. It will make the Moon the second Earth. D. It will allow spacecraft to make deeper space travel easier. 10. What environmental challenge is mentioned in the article regarding lunar mining? A. The risk of running out of the Moon’s water ice reserves. B. The possibility of causing sandstorms and earthquakes on the Moon. C. The potential for lunar dust to travel far and change the Moon’s appearance. D. The threat of introducing Earth’s pollution to the Moon by the spaceships. 11. What can be inferred about the potential risks to lunar miners from the article? A. Lunar miners will face significant financial risks due to market fluctuations. B. There is a high risk of accidents due to the unfamiliar lunar environment. C. The lack of safety standards and isolation could cause health and mind issues. D. Miners will have limited access to advanced medical care in case of emergencies. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了了月球采矿的相关情况，包括其带来的好处、面临的环境挑战以及对矿工的潜在风险等，强调在开始月球采矿之前需要制定强有力的规则和规定，以保障公平、安全和人权。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Now is the time to create the rules and regulations that will protect humanity’s shared future in space and ensure the Moon remains a symbol and inspiration for generations to come.( 在是制定规章制度的时候了，这些规章制度将保护人类在太空中的共同未来，并确保月球仍然是后代的象征和灵感。)”可知，制定月球采矿规则和规定的主要目的是保护人类在太空的共同未来，并确保月球仍然是激励后代的象征。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But if we can turn the water ice on the Moon into hydrogen and oxygen, we can refuel spacecraft there. This could make trips to farther places in space, like Mars, much easier.( 但如果我们能把月球上的水冰变成氢和氧，我们就能给月球上的航天器加油了。这将使前往太空中更远的地方，如火星，变得更加容易。)”可知，将月球上的水冰转化为氢和氧的潜在好处是可以让航天器在那里加油，从而使前往更远的太空地方（如火星）的旅行变得更容易，即让航天器进行更深入的太空旅行变得更容易。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When we take things from the Moon, dust gets kicked up. Since the Moon has no atmosphere, the dust can go very far. The surface material is “space weathered” and not as bright as the material underneath. If we disturb the dust, some parts of the Moon might look brighter, while others might look duller.( 当我们从月球上取东西时，灰尘会被踢起。由于月球没有大气层，尘埃可以飞得很远。表面材料是“太空风化”的，不像下面的材料那么明亮。如果我们扰乱了尘埃，月球的某些部分可能看起来更亮，而其他部分可能看起来更暗。)”可知，关于月球采矿提到的环境挑战是月球上的尘埃可能会传播得很远，并改变月球的外观。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“On the moon, you all wish you could find a job with good safety standards, fair pay, and reasonable hours. But you can’t. You are stuck in space.( 在月球上，你们都希望能找到一份安全标准高、报酬公平、工作时间合理的工作。但是你不能。你被困在太空中。)”以及第五段在“Working in low gravity can cause health problems. Lunar miners might have bone and muscle loss, kidney and heart damage, and weak immune systems. Besides, lunar miners will also be alone for a long time and face a lot of psychological stress.( 在低重力下工作可能会导致健康问题。月球矿工可能有骨质和肌肉损失，肾脏和心脏损伤，免疫系统较弱。此外，月球矿工也将长期独自一人，面临很大的心理压力。)”可推知，月球矿工面临的潜在风险是缺乏安全标准以及长期的孤立状态可能会导致健康和心理问题。故选C项。 D Flower gardens can be planted near paths by your house or in a separate fenced area for cutting flowers. Mixing marigolds (万寿菊) with your vegetable garden can help keep pests away, and it really works. Line your garden with lavender or peppermint to keep pests away. Did you know that deer are less likely to eat flowers with strong smells? Choose cut flower varieties with scents, such as roses and peonies (牡丹). Flower gardens can also have pests, so you’ll want to test what works in your area. In some regions, like the Pacific Northwest, slugs (蛞蝓) can eat your entire dahlia patch. In Michigan, roses struggle to survive extreme temperature changes from summer to winter, so be sure to choose flower varieties that are suitable for your growing zone and sun exposure. This is just a starting point but we hope we’ve given you some ideas to explore as you begin your sustainable garden. The great thing is, sustainable gardening is easier than farming with pesticides if you learn to manage your land properly. You can skip the weed killer, the chemical fertilizers, and the pest control chores if you just keep an eye on your plants or cut off diseased stems to prevent rot or mold from spreading. One final note: drip irrigation is very popular in warmer climates for saving water, but these systems can block with dirt and be difficult to set up. You could try running a pipe from your faucet and splitting it with a timer into zones with wobbler (摇摆器) sprinklers. Set up the timer to run each sprinkler zone for about half an hour every morning in succession, and never water right before sunset if you’re in a mold-prone (容易发霉的) climate. If you remove mold from roses and pest rot from stems and never plant a diseased dahlia to avoid spreading problems to other plants, you’ll become a skilled sustainable gardener in no time. 12. What is one method suggested to keep pests away from your vegetable garden? A. Planting roses around the edges. B. Planting marigolds along vegetables. C. Using chemical fertilizers if needed. D. Applying weed killer regularly. 13. What is a common challenge for roses in Michigan as mentioned in the passage? A. Extreme temperature changes. B. Insect infestations in summer. C. Lack of sunlight and water. D. Poor soil quality and pests. 14. What can be inferred about the author’s view on sustainable gardening? A. Sustainable gardening is more difficult than using pesticides. B. Sustainable gardening is easier with proper land management. C. The author thinks all gardens should use drip irrigation systems. D. The sustainable gardening is not suitable for all climates. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The benefits of using pesticides in gardening. B. The challenges of growing vegetables in a garden. C. The tips for creating and maintaining a sustainable flower garden. D. The importance of choosing the right flower varieties for different climates. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了创建和维护可持续花园的一些方法和建议，包括种植花卉的位置、防止害虫的方法、选择适合当地气候的花卉品种，以及可持续园艺的相关要点等。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Mixing marigolds (万寿菊) with your vegetable garden can help keep pests away, and it really works.(把万寿菊和你的菜园混在一起可以帮助赶走害虫，而且真的很有效。)”可知，在蔬菜园里混种万寿菊可以帮助驱赶害虫，所以一种使害虫远离蔬菜园的方法是在蔬菜旁边种植万寿菊。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In Michigan, roses struggle to survive extreme temperature changes from summer to winter, so be sure to choose flower varieties that are suitable for your growing zone and sun exposure.(在密歇根州，玫瑰在夏季到冬季的极端温度变化中挣扎着生存，所以一定要选择适合你生长区域和阳光照射的花卉品种。)”可知，在密歇根州，玫瑰难以在从夏天到冬天的极端温度变化中生存，所以在密歇根州玫瑰面临的常见挑战是极端的温度变化。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The great thing is, sustainable gardening is easier than farming with pesticides if you learn to manage your land properly.(最重要的是，如果你学会正确管理你的土地，可持续园艺比使用杀虫剂的农业更容易。)” 可推知，作者认为如果学会正确管理土地，可持续园艺比使用杀虫剂的园艺更容易。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章第一段介绍了种植花卉的位置和防害虫的方法，第二段提到选择适合当地气候的花卉品种，第三段强调可持续园艺的好处和要点，第四段介绍了灌溉系统及相关注意事项，所以文章的主要内容是关于创建和维护可持续花园的建议。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are all kinds of things that can affect air quality, including wildfire smoke.

He smiled, relieved that the shop had not permanently closed. Two days ago, when Evan was passing by her store, he saw a closed sign on the store’s door and a post-it note that read Mrs. Carter was sick. When the shop remained closed for not just two days but a whole week, Evan was worried he’d never be able to get his “dream job.” 85-year-old Mrs. Carter was a pretty woman who sold flowers for a living and he had befriended her when she helped him cross the street one day. While Evan stood by the curb smiling, Mrs. Carter turned around and saw him looking in her shop’s direction. She waved hello to him, and he ran up to her and greeted her. “Can I help you today, young man? Do you want flowers?” Mrs. Carter asked. Evan smiled, “I’m looking for a job! Can you please hire me?” “A job?” the elderly lady laughed, thinking Evan was too little for that. But Evan proudly replied he knew many things, like making sandwiches and helping his mom get grocery bags from the car. Mrs. Carter laughed and asked Evan how much money she would have to pay him if she hired him. Evan shook his head “All I want is a big bouquet (花束) for my mom. Her name is Stacey and her birthday is one week away. Mom says we should work hard for what we want. I want to work hard for that bouquet. Can you hire me?” Evan asked. Mrs. Carter was impressed and nodded. After he was hired, Evan’s happiness knew no bounds. For a whole week, he would come to Mrs. Carter’s store in the evenings and help her, and having Evan around relieved Mrs. Carter’s boredom while working. Some customers thought Evan was lovely and entertaining, so they bought more flowers. Mrs. Carter’s business became better. A week later, on Evan’s last day on the job, Mrs. Carter was emotional. They had grown close for working together, and Evan had become like a grandchild to her. She was making a huge bouquet for his mother, and her eyes welled up. Mrs. Carter secretly placed one envelope into the bouquet. The envelope contained $1100. When handing him the bouquet, she said, “Will you come to see me someday, Evan? I’d be delighted to have you here.” “I will, Mrs. Carter! I will tell mom about you today! She’ll be so happy!” Evan smiled and waved goodbye to Mrs. Carter. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Carrying the flowers, Evan rushed home to surprise his mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then, Evan and his mom hurried to return the money to Mrs. Carter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Carrying the flowers, Evan rushed home to surprise his mom. “Happy birthday, Mom!” he cried, running up to her. Stacey was shocked at the huge bouquet. “Where did you get it?” she asked. When Evan told the whole story, Stacey was delighted and hugged her son closely. Evan smiled and was about to give her the bouquet when he suddenly noticed the envelope. He pulled it out and found the money in it. “But I told Mrs. Carter not to pay me! I think this got here by mistake!” said Evan. Then, Evan and his mom hurried to return the money to Mrs. Carter. When they reached her shop and were about to return the money, Mrs. Carter smiled and said, “It’s my pay for Evan. He did a very good job. Keep it. The flowers are my gift for you.” Stacey was grateful for Mrs. Carter’s kindness and invited her home for dinner that night to celebrate her birthday together. From then on, Stacey started to join Evan in helping Mrs. Carter in her shop and they became friends. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了8岁的Evan想要去卡特夫人的花店帮忙，卡特夫人觉得Evan太小了，不适合工作，但是在得知Evan只是想用工作换取一束鲜花送给妈妈当礼物时候，卡特夫人很感动，于是同意Evan在花店工作。工作一周后，卡特夫人为Evan的妈妈制作了一大束鲜花，并偷偷放在花里一个装有1100美元的信封，Evan同卡特夫人告别。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Evan捧着花冲回家，想给妈妈一个惊喜。”可知，第一段可描写Evan把花送给妈妈，妈妈得知事情经过后非常开心，并且发现1100美元的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后，Evan和他的妈妈赶紧把钱还给卡特夫人。”可知，第二段可Evan和他的妈妈去找卡特夫人还钱并且最后邀请卡特夫人一起回家并成为朋友的过程。 2. 续写线索：给妈妈惊喜——妈妈很开心——发现1100美元——去卡特夫人家还钱——卡特夫人拒绝拿回钱——邀请卡特夫人一起庆祝生日——成为朋友 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①得到：get/ obtain/ gain/ receive ②拥抱：hug/ hold in one’s arms/ embrace ③返还：return/ give back 情绪类 ①因……而感激：be grateful for/ be thankful for/ be appreciative of ②高兴的：delighted/ happy/ glad 【点睛】[高分句型1].

It consists of more than a dozen of regular markets, with some of the most famous happening in Camden Lock, a legendary area in Camden Town. The Camden markets draw in 250, 000 tourists every week. But believe it or not, the Camden markets are a relatively new addition to London, as the area surrounding Camden Lock was used primarily for agricultural and industrial purposes since before the 1800s. Camden Market Highlights Camden Lock Village Out of all the markets located in Camden, it is perhaps the most famous. These covered markets are full packed full of all sorts of unique and handmade items. Camden Lock Market Not just limited to clothing, here you can also find food stalls offering food from all over the world, as well as handmade jewellery, second-hand clothing, books, and other random household items you won't find anywhere else in the city. Inverness Street Market It may not be as big as the other Camden markets but don't let that stop you as here you will find a variety of different specialty shops, as well as countless bars and restaurants. It is also a popular hang-out among locals for its fruit and vegetable markets, which have been around since the early 1900s. Camden High Street It is a highly popular shopping area, and is packed full of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, many of which feature some interesting designs and logos on their facades (正面) that are worth taking a photo of. As a matter of fact, no Camden Town photo collection would be complete without a shot of the massive dragon at Camden High Street.

The country is a little smaller than Montana, but its library network is extensive, with hundreds of central libraries, branch libraries and mobile libraries. I was two years old when my family settled in Porvoo, a small city of around 50,000 people about an hour away from the capital, Helsinki. One thing it didn’t have were books in my family’s language — my first language, Albanian. I can’t say that I was ever encouraged to pick up a book. We didn’t do that in my family. But once I learned how to read Finnish, I never stopped, becoming a frequent sight at the small school library. I was 10 years old when the new building of the main library of Porvoo opened its doors to the public. When I visited for the first time, I was so in awe that I cried. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen: endless shelves carrying tens of thousands of books, records, movies, magazines and newspapers. And the best part was that everything was free. I rarely, however, borrowed a book, and if I did, I kept it hidden. To this day, I don’t know why that was, exactly — why it felt wrong and scary somehow to bring books home with me. Maybe I wanted to keep books to myself, a secret of some kind. Or perhaps I was just scared that something would happen to the books if they were somewhere they didn’t seem to belong. But unlike the real world, books never distressed me — even crime, horror and thriller titles — and I read everything. I would pick up a book from the shelf, sit down at a table, read, then return the book to its place and continue the next day from where I’d left off. I spent as much time as I could in the new library — falling in love with books and stories and the Finnish language, gaining confidence as a speaker and as a child of immigrant parents, and dreaming of writing a book of my own one day, slowly growing from a reader to a writer. 4. What problem did the author meet with arriving in Finland? A. He had few friends to make with. B. He couldn’t read books in Finnish. C. He felt discouraged to read a book. D. He couldn’t find available libraries. 5. What can be inferred about the newly-built library of Porvoo? A. It never failed to impress. B. It took a decade to build. C. It received the most readers. D. It aroused readers’ creativity. 6. Which is closest in meaning to “distressed” in paragraph 4? A. dressed. B. surprised. C. satisfied. D. upset. 7. What’s the best title for the text? A. Read My Way Through Porvoo B. Experience Cultures of Finland C. Pursue My Dreams in Helsinki D. Recall Old Days in Albania C By the end of this decade, countries and private companies might start mining the Moon. Now is the time to create the rules and regulations that will protect humanity’s shared future in space and ensure the Moon remains a symbol and inspiration for generations to come. This has started a new race to the Moon. Right now, all supplies for space exploration come from Earth, which makes things like water and fuel very expensive. By the time a single litre of water gets to the Moon, it costs more than gold. But if we can turn the water ice on the Moon into hydrogen and oxygen, we can refuel spacecraft there. This could make trips to farther places in space, like Mars, much easier. When we take things from the Moon, dust gets kicked up. Since the Moon has no atmosphere, the dust can go very far. The surface material is “space weathered” and not as bright as the material underneath. If we disturb the dust, some parts of the Moon might look brighter, while others might look duller. Managing the dust will be important for making sure mining is sustainable and doesn’t cause too much disruption. On the moon, you all wish you could find a job with good safety standards, fair pay, and reasonable hours. But you can’t. You are stuck in space. British astrobiologist Charles S. Cockell says this could lead to similar problems on the earth. Powerful people might be able to take advantage of workers who have nowhere else to go. There are some other possible dangers of starting Moon mining without thinking about the risks to workers. Working in low gravity can cause health problems. Lunar miners might have bone and muscle loss, kidney and heart damage, and weak immune systems. Besides, lunar miners will also be alone for a long time and face a lot of psychological stress. The Moon could be a great place for human exploration and a source of resources to help life on Earth and beyond. But we need to learn from history and avoid uncontrolled exploitation (开采). Before we start mining the Moon, we must make strong regulations that focus on fairness, safety, and human rights. 8. What is the main purpose of establishing rules and regulations for lunar mining? A. To ensure that lunar mining is profitable for private companies. B. To prevent any country from claiming ownership of the Moon. C. To facilitate the transportation of supplies from Earth to the Moon. D. To protect the shared future in space and preserve the Moon as a symbol of inspiration. 9. What is a potential benefit of turning water ice on the Moon into hydrogen and oxygen? A. It will rocket the cost of space exploration. B It will create new jobs for people on Earth. C. It will make the Moon the second Earth. D. It will allow spacecraft to make deeper space travel easier. 10. What environmental challenge is mentioned in the article regarding lunar mining? A The risk of running out of the Moon’s water ice reserves. B. The possibility of causing sandstorms and earthquakes on the Moon. C. The potential for lunar dust to travel far and change the Moon’s appearance. D. The threat of introducing Earth’s pollution to the Moon by the spaceships. 11. What can be inferred about the potential risks to lunar miners from the article? A. Lunar miners will face significant financial risks due to market fluctuations. B. There is a high risk of accidents due to the unfamiliar lunar environment. C. The lack of safety standards and isolation could cause health and mind issues. D. Miners will have limited access to advanced medical care in case of emergencies. D Flower gardens can be planted near paths by your house or in a separate fenced area for cutting flowers. Mixing marigolds (万寿菊) with your vegetable garden can help keep pests away, and it really works. Line your garden with lavender or peppermint to keep pests away. Did you know that deer are less likely to eat flowers with strong smells? Choose cut flower varieties with scents, such as roses and peonies (牡丹). Flower gardens can also have pests, so you’ll want to test what works in your area. In some regions, like the Pacific Northwest, slugs (蛞蝓) can eat your entire dahlia patch. In Michigan, roses struggle to survive extreme temperature changes from summer to winter, so be sure to choose flower varieties that are suitable for your growing zone and sun exposure. This is just a starting point, but we hope we’ve given you some ideas to explore as you begin your sustainable garden. The great thing is, sustainable gardening is easier than farming with pesticides if you learn to manage your land properly. You can skip the weed killer, the chemical fertilizers, and the pest control chores if you just keep an eye on your plants or cut off diseased stems to prevent rot or mold from spreading. One final note: drip irrigation is very popular in warmer climates for saving water, but these systems can block with dirt and be difficult to set up.

He smiled, relieved that the shop had not permanently closed. Two days ago, when Evan was passing by her store, he saw a closed sign on the store’s door and a post-it note that read Mrs. Carter was sick. When the shop remained closed for not just two days but a whole week, Evan was worried he’d never be able to get his “dream job.” 85-year-old Mrs. Carter was a pretty woman who sold flowers for a living and he had befriended her when she helped him cross the street one day. While Evan stood by the curb, smiling, Mrs. Carter turned around and saw him looking in her shop’s direction. She waved hello to him, and he ran up to her and greeted her. “Can I help you today, young man? Do you want flowers?” Mrs. Carter asked. Evan smiled, “I’m looking for a job! Can you please hire me?” “A job?” the elderly lady laughed, thinking Evan was too little for that. But Evan proudly replied he knew many things, like making sandwiches and helping his mom get grocery bags from the car. Mrs. Carter laughed and asked Evan how much money she would have to pay him if she hired him. Evan shook his head. “All I want is a big bouquet (花束) for my mom. Her name is Stacey and her birthday is one week away. Mom says we should work hard for what we want. I want to work hard for that bouquet. Can you hire me?” Evan asked. Mrs. Carter was impressed and nodded. After he was hired, Evan’s happiness knew no bounds. For a whole week, he would come to Mrs. Carter’s store in the evenings and help her, and having Evan around relieved Mrs. Carter’s boredom while working. Some customers thought Evan was lovely and entertaining, so they bought more flowers. Mrs. Carter’s business became better. A week later, on Evan’s last day on the job, Mrs. Carter was emotional. They had grown close for working together, and Evan had become like a grandchild to her. She was making a huge bouquet for his mother, and her eyes welled up. Mrs. Carter secretly placed one envelope into the bouquet. The envelope contained $1100. When handing him the bouquet, she said, “Will you come to see me someday, Evan? I’d be delighted to have you here.” “I will, Mrs. Carter! I will tell mom about you today! She’ll be so happy!” Evan smiled and waved goodbye to Mrs. Carter. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Carrying the flowers, Evan rushed home to surprise his mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then, Evan and his mom hurried to return the money to Mrs. Carter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
