Most Atlantic hurricanes make landfall (before reaching their full sirength.But under the right conditions.a storm can grow stronger quickly.There is plenty of proof that these storms are getting stronger as climate change heats up the oceans.More heat means more cnergy for these storms. One result is thet the peak strength of storms has risen.A 2020 study shows that from 1979 to 2017, the strength of storms increased by about six percent every ten years.Not all storms develop into hurricanes, typhoons or tropical cyclones.But now they are 25 percent more likely to reach that level than they were forty years ago. While storms now have stronger and faster winds,they move more slowly.Hurricanes near the U.S. have slowed by around 17 percent since the early 20h century.Tropical cyclones in the western North Pacific have slowed down by 20 percent.This change is partly due to (the narrowing temperature gap (between the Arctic and the tropics.The Arctic is warming nearly four times faster than the rest of the world. Slow-moving storms can pour more rain in one location.For example,Hurricane Debby brought 50 centimeters of rain to some towns in Florida this August. The damage from strong winds is also increasing.The longer the winds blow,the more destruction happens.Typhoons like Bebinca and Pulasan knocked down countless trees this September. To deal with stronger storms,we can use new technologies like early-waming systems to save lives. Meanwhile we must prepare our homes and neighborhoods for these disasters.After all,we can't tum off climate change and retum to the past. 43.What does the underlined word"flatten"most likely mean in Paragraph 1? A.To completely destroy.B.To make smoother.C.To rebuild. D.To clean. 44.Why are storms moving more slowly than before according to the passage? A.Because climate change is causing oceans to cool in certain areas. B.Because hurricanes are more likely to happen near urban areas. C.Because the peak strength of storms has decreased over time. D.Because the temperature gap is reducing and the Arctic is warming faster. 第4贞共8项 15.What can we know about different storms from the passage? A.Slower storms are less harmful due to lower wind speeds. B.Slower storms are more damaging because they stay longer in one area. C.Faster-moving storms cause more flooding than slower ones. D.Slower storms are becoming less common due to climate change. B The three days of Mr.Eamshaw's absence seemed a long time to us all.Mrs.Eamshaw expected him ysupper-time on the third evening.She put off the meal hour after hour.There were no signs of his :oming. However,about eleven o'clock the door opened and in stepped the master.He threw himself intoa :hair,laughing and groaning ()and toid them all to stand back,for he was nearly killed.He would ever again have another such walk for whatever reason.Opening his great coat,which he held bundled up n his arms.he said,"See here.wife.I was never so beaten with anything in my life.But you must take it as tgift of God though it is almost so dark that it seems as if it came from the devil." We walked around him.Over Miss Cathy's head,I had a look at a dirty,black-haired child,big enough oth to walk and talk.Yet.when it was set on its feet.it only stared around,and repeated over and over igain some strange words that nobody could understand.I was frightened,and Mrs.Eamnshaw was ready to hrow it out of doors.She did get angry,asking why he should have brought that child into the house when hey had their own kids to look after. The master tried to explain the matter though he was really half dead with tiredness.All I could make ut was a story of his seeing it starving(挨饿)，and homeless,.and almost dumb(哑的)in the streets of Liverpool where he picked it up and asked for its owner.But not a person knew to whom it belonged.He aid that as both his money and time were limited,he thought it better to take it home with him at once. Anyway he was determined he would not leave it as he had found it. Well,finally Mrs.Earnshaw calmed down.and Mr.Earnshaw told me to wash it.give it clean things. nd let it slecp with the children. From WVuthering Heights 16.When did Mr.Earnshaw return home from Liverpool? A.Not until it was nearly midnight. B.By supper time. C.When it was getting dark. D.An hour later after the meal time. 17.What was the most likely thing Mr.Eamshaw brought home? A.An abandoned(枝遗弃的)pet with a strange appearance. B.A child he found while looking for a lost item in Liverpool. C.A mysterious item wrapped in his great coat which tumed out to be a child. D.A gift he bought during his long absence,which was actually a homeless child. 18.When Mrs.Eamshaw first laid eyes on the child,her initial raction (was mainly driven by A.pity for the child's pitiful appearance B.concern over (her ability to support another child C.fear of the unknown origin and condition of the child D.anger at Mr.Earnshaw's sudden decision to bring an outsider home 19.What can be inferred about the society at that time based on the story? A.People were all indifferent (to the homeless. B.Family values were very different from what they are today. 第5页共8项 C.It was common for pcople to bring homeless children home. D.There were no proper social welfare (systems to take care of the homeless. c When we see blooming flowers.we usually expect them to smell nice.But as they say,there's an exception to every rule.Some plants give off smells like sulfur(疏a磺).bad eggs or rotten(腐栏的)mcat. "Remember that plants can't walk,"says Paul Nicholson,a horticulturist in Sydney."They can't move to reproduce or escape from predators ()That's why some of them smell so awful.They need to stand out to attract pollinators (or drive away those who want to eat them." How smelly can these plants get?Let's sniff two of the stinkiest (up close! The corpse(死P)flower It's hard to miss these plants-their leaves can shoot up to three meters tall.But the real show doesn't start until they are old enough to bloom. "The flowers smell like a mix of week-old football socks and cat food left out in the sun."says Nicholson.To make matters worse,"the flowers produce heat,making the smell even stronger." But to the flies they rely on for pollination.the smell is great.The flowers bloom just once every few years and for just 24 to 36 hours each time.That's why they must attract flies from far away to ensure their survival. The stink bean These beans are also called petai.They grow in green pods (up to 90 centimeters long.They should be quite familiar to those living in Singapore.Malaysia and Thailand.That's because they can be caten even though they smell like sulfur."Many people believe they're good for kidney (health,"says Lilian Kwok,a horticulturist in Singapore. Their strong smell is meant to attract animals,not people.In forests,chewed up and left behind seed pods can grow into new trees.The pods fall during heavy rains,and farmers-or rather.collectors-must act quickly as animals eat them so fast that humans can be left empty-handed."It's quite an expensive vegetable.It sells for about six Singapore dollars (about 33 Chinese yuan)per 200 grams!"adds Kwok. 50.Why do corpse flowers produce heat during blooming? A.To make their smell stronger. B.To help the plants grow taller. C.To attract human collectors. D.To protect their seeds from rain. 51.The stink beans give off a strong sulfur-like smell A.to refuse human collectors. B.to help them grow faster. C.to attract animals to spread seeds. D.to improve people's kidney health. 52.Which of the following statements is True? A.It's difficult for people to harvest pods because of their smell. B.Animals eat most of the pods before humans can harvest them. C.The corpse flower attract pollinators by giving off a sweet smell. D.The corpse flower attract pollinators by blooming often throughout the year. 53.What can we know from the article? A.Stinky plants are more common in urban areas. B.Animals avoid smelly plants to protect themselves. C.Plants with strong smells can be harmful to humans. D.Some plants use bad smells to survive and reproduce. 五、信息还原（共4小题：每小题1.5分，满分6分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 第6贺共8贞 A new survey has found that AI is quickly changing the way children in China use the Internet. 54 Over4s%of minors(未成年人)reported having used an Al-powered product at least once.And 20.5%of minors in urban (areas said they used Al-enabled devices.Just 8.1%of minors in rural(乡村)China said the same thing.. 55 This is especially true in rural China.About 75%of children in the countryside reported using their phones to go ontine. But things are changing in the cities.Smartwatches have grown in popularity.It is now the third most popular device minors use to go online.The top two are phones and tablets. 56 As a result.parents buy their children smartwatches to stay in touch during the day.These devices often come with Al chatbots. The report suggests more should be done to teach children how to use Al safely. Only 19%said they had taken a proper course. The report calls for more cfforts to deal with the "Al gap"in China.At present.most Al-related activities take place in schools in big cities.such as Beijing.Shanghai and Guangzhou.according to the researchers. There are also other worries over the use of Al among minors.In some cases.for example,chatbots are giving children answers that are incorrect or unsuitable. A.Smartwatches are more advanced in teaching and learning. B.So far,most minors learn about Al through online sources C.There are differences in Al usage between urban and rural areas. D.This is likely because many schools stop students from using phones at school. E.The report also noted that most minors use smartphones to surf the internet.

The team spent several years talking with farmers to see what problems they were having and how these problems might be fixed.This led to the invention of“Plant Buggy(值物车)"，a special kind of robot that collects information about crops in detail. At first,the Buggies were very simple.They were built on bicyeles and took pictures with phones. Over the years,they've been greatly improved.Now,they move on four big wheels that are high enough to run over rows of plants.The wheels are also strong.allowing them to move through muddy fields.The robots are covered with solar panels (to save energy.They can take pictures of each plant. remember each plant's location and measure (its size.Studying the plants one by one can save time and moneyfor farme For example,if Plant Buggies tell which plants have diseases,farmers can quickly get rid of them before the diseased plants ruin (other crops. From strawbery fields in Caiforia to soybean fields in inois,Plant Buggies are leaming about crops from sprout (to harvest.so scientists can find new ways to help understand how plants grow and interact with their environment. 58.Why will more food be produced? 59.What is Mineral? 60.How can "Plant Buggy"get energy? 第7页共8功 61.What can"Plant Buggy"do? 62.What can farmers do with diseased plants found by Plant Buggies? 七、综合填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 When I was a little kid,I would lie on the grass in my backyard,looking up at the starry sky.That's when my love for space exploration began.I dreamed of becoming63 astronaut,flying among the stars and planets. However,space exploration is a difficult task.Astronauts need64 (master)multiple disciplines like math,physics.and engineering.They also have to be brave and strong to deal with all the challenges in space. Thanks to spacecraft,we can now learn more about the universe.For example,the Mars rovers we sent to Mars analyze the Martian soil.65(important),finding water on Mars matters for looking for life and future settlement.The data these missions send back helps scientists understand the solar system66(good). The Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969 was a historic moment for humanity.When Armstrong and Aldrin stepped on the moon.it showed what67(hutnan)could achieve in space. In recent years.China68(make)great progress in space exploration.The Shenzhou series are significant milestones.69,we have built our own space siation.Tiangong.Tiangong serves as a multi-functional platforin for scientific research.70(include)studies on microgravity physics, life sciences,and space astronomy.It helps Chinese astronauts do long-term space missions and aids the world in understanding space.This remarkable achievement makes me extremely_71(pride)of my country. I hope to join the space exploration team one day.By studying aerospacerelated fields,I believe my dream will come true.The future72space exploration is full of possibilities,and I can't wait to be part of it. 八、书面表达（共1颤；满分15分） 白驹过隙，岁月如流，转瞬之间，三年的初中学习生活即将落下雏幕。问首这段充头而类好的 初中时光，我们有幸超近了许多优秀的老师。其中谁会是你最难忘的老师呢？请你根据问题提示， 以The Most Unforgettable Teacher"为题。用英语写一篇短文，讲述你和她（他）之间的放事. 1.Who is your most unforgettable teacher? 2.Why do you admire her(him)? 3.How did the teacher help you? 4.What is your feeling about her(him)? 注意：1文中不得出现你的真实姓名和学校名称： 2.词数100左右：文常的开头已为你写好，不计入总词数。 The Most Unforgettable Teacher How time flies!My three-year junior high school life is about to come to an end.During these three years,I have encountered many excellent teachers.Among them, 第8负共8贞
