Lu Sheng learned grape planting and wine­making from her grandmother's sister.Since they retired, the couple have moved to Lhasa from the village of Yakhadi.Though the fact that the region's capital, which is 3,600 meters above sea level, is considered unfit for growing grapes, Lu Sheng and Hua Sheng began an ambitious project in 2015, planting grapes in Tsalna, a town in the suburb of Lhasa. They received support from the local government, which is committed to developing business and the economy.The couple's project provides jobs for rural residents, and, as a result, the government has considered the project part of its poverty relief program. “Lhasa is an ideal place for planting French grape varieties that are resistant to cold, drought and disease, and adaptable to high­altitude and open­air planting,” Lu Sheng said. “Thanks to the plateau's sunshine and organic planting, our grapes grow very well here in Lhasa.The grapes are a bit sour and sweet, and they have a high anthocyanin(花青素)content,”she said.Anthocyanins, which are in grape cells and contribute rich color to wine, are water­soluble(水溶的). In 2018, Hua Sheng and Lu Sheng expanded their project, planting on nearly 6.67 hectares.In order to familiarize Tibetan farmers with grape planting and wine­making, they taught the skills to local villagers. “We have successfully taught the local farmers how to grow grapes and make wine over the three years.They now have a new source of income besides traditional farming and herding,” Hua Sheng said. Yudron, a resident of Nam, said she was grateful to the grape planting project in her village, which has contributed to her income and quality of life.“After working in the vineyards for years, now we know how to make wine.We drink both barley and grape wine now.We love grape wine more, though, as it is healthier.” [语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。一对退休的西藏夫妇在晚年搬到拉萨城郊,他们在那里种葡萄和酿制葡萄酒,并为农村居民提供工作,促进了当地经济的发展。 4.What did the couple do after their retirement?

Maybe—but maybe not.It might well be the story of someone whose never­ending chase for more and more success leaves them unsatisfied and incapable of happiness. Though it isn't a conventional medical addiction, for many people success has addictive properties.Obviously, success goes with praise.To a certain extent, praise stimulates the neurotransmitter (神经递质) dopamine (多巴胺),which contributes to all addictive behaviors. The desire for success may be born to human nature, but specialness doesn't come cheap.Success is tough work, and it requires bearing the cost of losing.In the 1980s, the physician Robert Goldman famously found that more than half of ambitious athletes would be willing to take a drug that would kill them in five years in exchange for winning every competition they entered. Unfortunately, success is endless.The goal can't be satisfied; most people never feel “successful” enough.The high only lasts a day or two, and then it's on to the next goal.Psychologists call this the hedonic treadmill (快乐跑步机现象),in which satisfaction wears off almost immediately and we must run on to the next reward to avoid the feeling of falling behind. People should get off the treadmill.But quitting isn't easy for addicts.For people hooked on substances, withdrawal can be a painful experience, both physically and psychologically, research finds that depression and anxiety are common among outstanding athletes after their careers end.Olympic athletes, in particular, suffer from the “post­Olympic blues”. Just like wine, success in and of itself is not a bad thing.Both can bring fun and sweetness to life.But both become bossy when they are a substitute for—instead of a complement (补充物)to—the relationships and love that should be at the center of our lives. [语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了成功对人们的影响,对许多人来说,成功有上瘾的特性。但成功是艰苦的工作,它要求人们承担失败的代价。成功是无止境的,但它带来的快乐却很短暂。对此,作者建议人们应该思考自己生活中真正重要的东西是什么。 8.What does praise function as when going with success? A.It has nothing to do with success addiction. B.It may indirectly cause success addiction. C.It always brings positive results of success. D.It results in all addictive behaviors except success. 解析:选B。细节理解题。由第二段中的“Obviously, success goes with praise.To a certain extent, praise stimulates the neurotransmitter (神经递质) dopamine (多巴胺),which contributes to all addictive behaviors.”可知,表扬与成功相伴,会刺激神经递质多巴胺,它可能间接地导致成功成瘾。故选B项。 9.Why did the author mention the research findings of Robert Goldman? A.To show success is a tough and cruel job. B.To stress the key to success lies in efforts. C.To argue that athletes deserve more rewards. D.To describe the routine training of an ordinary athlete. 解析:选A。推理判断题。由第三段中的“Success is tough work, and it requires bearing the cost of losing.In the 1980s, the physician Robert Goldman...”可推知本段列举Robert Goldman的研究是为了说明成功是一项艰巨而残酷的工作。故选A项。 10.What can success bring to a success addict according to psychologists? A.Satisfaction and a sense of pride. B.Anxiety and short­lived happiness. C.Relaxation and endless motivation. D.Confidence and permanent happiness. 解析:选B。细节理解题。由第四段中的“The goal can't be satisfied; most people never feel ‘successful’ enough.The high only lasts a day or two...”和倒数第二段中的“For people hooked on substances, withdrawal can be a painful experience...”可知成功者永远感觉不到满足,他们的满足感/幸福感是短暂的,一些优秀运动员职业生涯结束后,会抑郁和焦虑,说明成功能给成功成瘾者带来短暂的幸福和焦虑。故选B项。 11.What does the author suggest people do about pursuing success? A.Stop chasing success. B.Chase success at any cost. C.Reflect on what matters in life. D.Give up love and relationships. 解析:选C。推理判断题。由最后一段“Just like wine, success in and of itself is not a bad thing.Both can bring fun and sweetness to life.But both become bossy when...”可知作者认为成功本身并不是坏事,但当成功取代了我们生活中最核心的关系和爱时,成功就会变成坏事。由此推知,作者建议读者思考生活中最重要的事情。故选C项。 D Childhood days on the beach or messing around in rivers can have significant lasting benefits for our wellbeing (幸福) in adulthood, according to a study.It found that exposure (暴露) to blue spaces—such as coasts, rivers and lakes—as a child made revisiting blue spaces in adulthood more likely, as these adults showed greater familiarity with and placed greater value on natural settings. More than 15,000 participants in 18 different countries were surveyed for the study, published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology.“Water settings can be dangerous for children, and parents are right to be watchful,” said Dr Leanne Martin, co­author of the study.“The research suggests that encouraging children to feel comfortable in these settings and developing skills such as swimming at an early age can have previously unrecognised life­long benefits.” There has been a growing body of research over the last ten years about the specific beneficial effects of blue spaces on mental health.A review published in the International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health suggested visits to blue spaces could increase people's physical activity levels and lower stress, while improving their mood and psychological wellbeing.Another review published by the Environment Agency, found that blue spaces were related to the improvement of mood and feelings of restoration to a greater degree than green spaces. The study's lead author Valeria Vitale said, “We recognise that both green and blue spaces have a positive impact on people's mental and physical health.Also, previous studies examining childhood nature exposure and adulthood outcomes have largely focused on green spaces, or natural spaces in general.However, as we highlighted in our paper, blue spaces have unique sensory qualities (感官特质) (light reflection, wave motion, sounds, etc) and encourage a distinct range of leisure activities (swimming, fishing, water sports).” Another co­author Dr Mathew White added:“If our findings are supported by long­term research that tracks people's exposure over the entire life course, it would suggest that further work, strategies and plans encouraging more blue space experiences during childhood may be a viable way to support the mental health of future generations.” [语篇解读]本文是说明文。一项研究表明,童年时期在水域附近活动的时间越多,对成年后的生活越容易产生积极的影响。 12.What is a finding of the new study? A.Adults placed a high value on natural environments. B.Children showed great familiarity with water settings. C.Time spent in blue spaces benefits children in later life. D.Blue spaces and green spaces have equal effects on mental health. 解析:选C。细节理解题。由第一段中的“Childhood days on...in adulthood”可知,研究表明,童年时期在近水区域的活动对成年后的幸福会产生重要而持久的积极影响。 13.What does Dr Leanne Martin mainly suggest? A.Water settings are dangerous for children. B.Children should start water activities early. C.Swimming is a necessary skill for children. D.Parents' protection makes children feel more comfortable. 解析:选B。细节理解题。由第二段中的“The research suggests...life­long benefits”可推知,Leanne Martin认为应当让孩子从幼年时期便开始在近水区域活动并培养水上运动技巧,因为这会让他们终身受益。 14.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed? A.By giving examples. B.By analysing causes. C.By making comparisons. D.By following time order. 解析:选A。段落结构题。第三段第一句为本段中心句,后面的“A review...”及“Another review...”为具体的例子,由此可推知,本段主要通过举例子说明在过去的十年中,关于蓝色空间会对心理健康产生有益影响的研究越来越多。 15.What does the underlined word “viable” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Fun and cheap. B.Quick and special. C.Sound and workable. D.Easy and convenient. 解析:选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可推知,Mathew White认为如果该发现得到长期跟踪研究的支持,鼓励人们在童年时期接触更多蓝色空间将是提升后代精神健康的切实可行的方法。 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。 (2024·长春外国语学校高二上期末) How to Feel Connected It's easy to feel disconnected from what is going on around you in today's fast­paced world.16( )You can get in touch and feel connected, however, by following the tips below: Consider why you feel disconnected.

Memories of how Grandpa taught her to make potatoes rose in her mind.She sighed and missed Grandpa so much. Alexis cut the potatoes and mixed the boiled potatoes, some sauces and a little salt and peppers in a bowl.But it didn't taste right.Alexis tried a bite of the salad mixture, wondering what was missing.Seeing her frown, Mom suggested,“What about something spicy? Your Grandpa loved spicy things.” “You're right! Maybe he put a jalapeno pepper in it,” Alexis said, cutting up a bright green jalapeno and adding it to the bowl. It was closer, but it still didn't taste right.Alexis was drooping her head, disappointed.“Should we look in a cookbook?” “Grandpa was never one to follow a recipe,” Dad entered the kitchen and said. It was true.People loved Grandpa's potato salad because it was one of a kind.Alexis remembered posing with Grandpa for a photo while they were making the salad. Photo! That gave her an idea.Alexis hurried to the bookcase and found an old photo album.She immediately flipped it open, expecting to find clues in the photos there.Lots of photos showed Grandpa and Grandma cooking together.Dad laughed,“He and Grandma loved to tease each other but he always called her Honey.” “Do you think he put honey in the potato salad?” Mum asked. “It is worth a try,”said Alexis.She stirred some honey into the bowl. But it still wasn't quite right.Alexis's heart sank, on the verge of giving up.Dad kept flipping the album.At the end of the album was the picture of Grandpa and Alexis making the salad together. 注意:1.续写词数应为 150 左右; 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 It looked like Grandpa was crying in the photo.                                                                          With hesitation, the family tasted the potato salad with onions in it.                                                                          [参考范文] It looked like Grandpa was crying in the photo. Crying! Yes, the secret was about crying! Grandpa once said with wet eyes that the potato salad definitely brought tears to his eyes.It seemed that Alexis found out the final secret ingredient.Full of hope in her eyes, she quickly rushed to the cabinet and grabbed an onion.Then, delighted and expected, she cut the onion with tears in her eyes.Finally, adding the onions into the salad and mixed it, Alexis's palms getting sweaty.Feeling uneasy, she held the salad to her family and waited for their try. With hesitation, the family tasted the potato salad with onions in it.Nodding their heads at the same time, they eventually figured out Grandpa's recipe.Finally, Alexis completed the salad and took part in the contest.As the result that Alexis's potato salad won was announced, Alexis was thinking about Grandpa, her tears welling up uncontrollably.She hugged the Golden Potato to her chest and wore a shining smile, saying“Just because of the onions.”It's not only a recipe for delicious food but also a recipe for a happy family.
