第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Esmeralda
This Portuguese ship sank off the coast of Oman in 1503. First discovered in 1998 and then extensively excavated (发掘) by a team led by David Mearns between 2013 and 2015, it is the oldest shipwreck (沉船) recovered from Europe’s Age of Exploration.
Black Sea Shipwreck
Discovered in 2018 by a team from the Black Sea Maritime Archaeology Project, the ship sank more than 2,400 years ago. It is the oldest undamaged shipwreck ever found. “A ship in such good condition from the classical world, is something I would never have believed possible,” said Professor Jon Adams, the principal investigator of the team that found the wreck.
Gribshunden
The flagship of John, King of Denmark, caught fire and sank in the Baltic Sea in 1495. There, it lay undiscovered until members of a local dive club came across it in the 1970s; unaware of its significance, they did not report it to archaeologists until 2000, and not until 2013 was the wreck’s identity confirmed. Considered one of the best-preserved shipwrecks of the period, it has slowly been revealing its secrets.
Black Swan
In May 2007, a Florida-based company announced that, using underwater robots, it had discovered a shipwreck in the Atlantic, code-named (代号为) “Black Swan”. However, the government of Spain claimed that the wreck was the Nuestra Senora de las Mercedes, a Spanish ship that sank off the coast of Portugal in 1804 following a battle with four British navy ships. After a long legal battle, the treasure was returned to Spain in 2012.
1. Which shipwreck is the latest discovery?
A. Esmeralda. B. Black Sea Shipwreck.
C. Gribshunden. D. Black Swan.
2. What do Black Sea Shipwreck and Gribshunden have in common?
A. They were discovered in the same area.
B. They were first noticed by local people.
C. They were in good shape when discovered.
D. They were in the possession of a royal family.
3. How did Spain get Black Swan returned?
A. By going to the court.
B. By contacting the Portugal government.
C. By joining a battle against British navy.
D. By offering another treasure as an exchange.
B
I used to want to be a zookeeper, but after becoming a wildlife rescue worker, I found that this work is even more valuable than I thought. Not only can I help injured wild animals, but I can also facilitate their return to the wild. We make every effort to accomplish this goal: hiding food under rocks and fallen leaves to simulate (模拟) a natural environment, or doing our best to maintain some distance from the animals and prevent them from bonding with humans.
I am often asked whether I feel at all sad when it’s time to release the animals — to tell you the truth, I’m always pretty willing to let them go. All of my efforts have been toward allowing them to return to the wild, and the wild is where they belong, so there’s no reason for reluctance on my part. But it is true that sometimes there is no way for an animal to go back to the wild, or to keep it from bonding with humans.
Last year, I rescued a light-vented bulbul (白头鹎). The bird, initially lacking feathers, recovered under our care. It was scheduled for release during its adolescent period, during which it’s relatively easy to socialize. But an injury to its flight feathers delayed its return to the wild. The bird imprinted on humans during the following two months, which was a critical cognitive (认知的) development period, leading it to return to us after being released.
When we engage in wildlife rescue, we have to teach animals how to maintain a high degree of caution around humans. If they become too trusting of humans, it is very likely that way, our success depends not on the animals, or on our work here, but more so on the attitude humans would not be a bad thing, and our release attempt could then be successful.
4. What do we know about the author’s job?
A. It was his initial career choice.
B. It forbids close interaction with animals.
C. It mainly aims to cure the injured animals.
D. It involves both rescue and release efforts.
5. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling to release the rescued animals?
A. Ambitious. B. Cheerful. C. Sorrowful. D. Anxious.
6. Which is closest in meaning to “imprinted on” in paragraph 3?
A. Was attached to. B. Was aware of.
C. Was sensitive to. D. Was cautious of.
7. What is the key to the success of wildlife rescue work?
A. Animals’ faith in humans.
B. Human’s knowledge in the work.
C. Human’s attitude towards animals.
D Animals’ ability to survive in the wild.
C
Tourists come in flocks from all parts of China to Rongjiang, a small county in a remote mountainous area, which has recently become popular for its “Village Super League”, creating a spectacular sports carnival in China.
During a match in May, Wu Chuguo, a decoration worker from Liubaitang village, Rongjiang County, scored a spectacular 40-meter goal that ignited (点燃) the crowd. Wu said he was influenced by elders in his village and fell in love with the sport. In the county, rural soccer matches have taken place regularly since the 1990s. When there was a lack of facilities, soccer players used barren land as a field and wooden stakes for the posts. The boundaries were marked out with lime powder. When they couldn't gather enough players, they played futsal, a soccer-based game played on a smaller hard court.
In recent years, the county has focused on gymnastics, soccer, rock climbing and other sports. What sets the Village Super League apart from other sports events are the vivid displays of ethnic cultures and traditions at the tournament. As players of both teams walk on the field for a game, they are accompanied by their cheering squads (啦啦队) dressed in traditional ethnic costumes and carrying local specialties. The halftime break features folk songs and dance performances, while ethnic costumes are also on display.
“hope that more and more tourists will come to Rongjiang to watch the matches, enjoy the folk customs and local cuisine, and have fun,” said Xiong Zhuqing, a melon grower who is also a cheerleader. She says she has sold over 10,000 kilograms of watermelons since the start of the tournament. As of June 27, a total of 654 new businesses were established, including 91 in the catering sector, 188 in retail, and 195 in agriculture and food processing, the local government said.
8. What can we know about the rural soccer match?
A It has been held since 1990. B. It lacks facilities for players.
C It was invented by Wu Chuguo. D. It has taken place since the 1990s.
9. Why is the Village Super League different from other sports events?
A. Because it has cheering squads.
B. Because it focuses on various sports.
C. Because it develops a top-level talent.
D. Because it reflects ethnic cultures and traditions.
10. What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A. Xiong Zhuqing has helped farmers to sell watermelons.
B. The Village Super League stimulates the local economic growth.
C. The local government invested a lot of money in new businesses.
D. The Village Super League attracts a lot of merchants from other places.
11. Who are most likely to be interested in this article?
A. Painting lovers. B. Shopkeepers.
C. Sports enthusiasts. D. News reporters.
D
A “spark bird” is the species that inspires someone to start birdwatching, namely birding. For Trish Kane, that bird was the cardinal (红衣凤头鸟). Hearing cardinals’ calls was an initial step toward over 1,960 hours of birding, 33 field notebooks and a career change. In her book, Birding to Change the World, Kane charts her transformation from a journalist to an environmentalist.
In 2005, a terrible hurricane hit Kane’s hometown. After it, she had to cope with the loss of her home. In watching the cardinals and other birds, she found relief. Soon she started bringing her students along. “My students stared at me in disbelief when I told them I had never cared about birds before,” Kane writes. “I suddenly wondered how many creatures would die because of the way we lived.” She decided to pursue an environmentally-conscious career. In 2007, she took a course to study environmental science.
Most of the book focuses on Kane’s efforts to preserve Warner Park, an ideal location satisfying birding requirements for her class. She successfully campaigned to stop the construction of a parking lot. Her activism snowballed into a local bird watching and protecting organization. It eventually became part of Kane’s doctoral research, and launched a birding class that pairs middle school students with college-student advisors.
The book shows readers that a good knowledge of nature doesn’t require a degree. Take Jeremy, a seemingly uninterested boy in Kane’s birding class. When reporters joined an outing, the normally quiet Jeremy started talking excitedly about the bunting, a small blue bird. Kane soon learned that he had secretly taken to studying the field guide given to him by his advisor.
At its core, Birding to Change the World is about how people and birds today depend on one another. “For birds, that dependence is concrete. For thousands of years, our species has seen birds as a symbol of liberation,” Kane writes. In her case, it is liberation from the grief and depression that the hurricane brought. “Bird by bird, they carve a new pathway in my life, a joyful pathway.”
12. What made Kane pursue an environmentalist career?
A. Her guilt about the serious harm to birds. B. The desire to guide students to go birding.
C. The comfort from birding after the disaster. D. Her students’ disbelief in her ignorance of birds.
13. What can we learn about Kane from paragraph 3?
A. She worked hard on her latest book. B. She protected Warner Park on her own.
C. Her birding class consisted of advisors. D. Her activism led to positive chain effects.
14 What does Jeremy’s experience suggest?
A. Interest in nature differs between kids and adults.
B. Children learn more from nature than from books.
C. Children are born curious about outdoor activities.
D. Potential in kids can be released with proper guide.
15. Which is the best title for the text?
A. A Joyful Experience of Birding B. The Transformative Power of Birding
C. A Life Journey of an Environmentalist D. The Self-appreciation of a Book Writer

Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.___16___Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.
People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public”at the expense of the “speaking. ” ___17___ Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.___18___
Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.___19___And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
___20___It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.
A. Do the opposite.
B. You want to be an effective public speaker.
C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.
D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.
E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience
F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I taught English as a Second Language (ESL) at a school. One particular sixth grader, Pablo, was struggling with fluency in reading, so after class I suggested that he get extra practice by reading aloud to his mom while she prepared dinner each evening. This was something I routinely encouraged my struggling students to do. Imagine my surprise when Pablo responded by starting to cry. He said, “My mom can’t cook dinner!” Then he cried harder. Eventually, he calmed down enough to tell me that his mom was only able to “cry in her bed” when he got home every afternoon. He said that he was caring for his six-month-old baby brother by himself from the time he got home each day. His mother, it seemed, had a bad tooth and was in extreme pain. He said that his father didn’t have enough money to get it fixed, and that there was no way for her to go to a dentist. This child’s heart was broken for his mom.
I was speechless! He was still crying when he left me that day, and I promised him I would try to help. I kept asking myself how I could help this student. How could I help his mother when we didn’t even speak the same language?
The next day, I sent a note, which a friend helped me translate, to Pablo’s mother asking if she would like me to find someone to help her. The following day, Pablo brought me a note from his mom accepting my offer to help.
Meanwhile, I had been doing some networking among my friends asking if anyone knew a dentist who might do some free work for this lady. At the time, I was not able to pay for the work to be done myself. Several friends suggested a dental office that had recently opened up in the area, thinking that they might be willing to provide the services. I didn’t want to waste a lot of time going to several dentists, so I prayed that this would be the one.
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。
Stopping by the dental office, I went to the reception desk.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Pablo’s mother came to meet the dentist at the appointed time.

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Esmeralda”部分中的“First discovered in 1998 and then extensively excavated (发掘) by a team led by David Mearns between 2013 and 2015, it is the oldest shipwreck (沉船) recovered from Europe’s Age of Exploration.(它于1998年首次被发现,并在2013年至2015年期间由大卫·米恩斯领导的团队进行了广泛的挖掘,是欧洲大航海时代发现的最古老的沉船。)”可知,该沉船是在1998年首次被发现的;根据“Black Sea Shipwreck”部分中的“Discovered in 2018 by a team from the Black Sea Maritime Archaeology Project, the ship sank more than 2,400 years ago.(这艘船于2018年被黑海海上考古项目的一个团队发现,沉没于2400多年前。)”可知,Black Sea Shipwreck是在2018年被发现的;根据“Gribshunden”部分中的“There, it lay undiscovered until members of a local dive club came across it in the 1970s; unaware of its significance, they did not report it to archaeologists until 2000, and not until 2013 was the wreck’s identity confirmed.(直到20世纪70年代,当地一家潜水俱乐部的成员发现了它,它才被人发现;由于不知道它的重要性,他们直到2000年才向考古学家报告,直到2013年才确认了沉船的身份。)”可知,Gribshunden沉船是在20世纪70年代被一家潜水俱乐部的成员发现;根据“Black Swan”部分中的“In May 2007, a Florida-based company announced that, using underwater robots, it had discovered a shipwreck in the Atlantic, code-named (代号为) “Black Swan”.(2007年5月,一家总部位于佛罗里达州的公司宣布,他们使用水下机器人在大西洋发现了一艘代号为 ‘黑天鹅’的沉船。)”可知,Black Swan沉船是在2007年5月被发现的,对比以上沉船被发现的时间可知,Black Sea Shipwreck被发现的时间是最新的。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Black Sea Shipwreck”部分中的“It is the oldest undamaged shipwreck ever found. “A ship in such good condition from the classical world, is something I would never have believed possible,” said Professor Jon Adams, the principal investigator of the team that found the wreck.(这是迄今为止发现的最古老的完好无损的沉船。‘一艘古典世界的船保存得如此完好,这是我从未相信过的事情,’发现这艘沉船的团队的首席研究员Jon Adams教授说。)”可知,这是迄今为止被发现的最古老的完好无损的沉船;结合“Gribshunden”部分中的“Considered one of the best-preserved shipwrecks of the period, it has slowly been revealing its secrets.(它被认为是那个时期保存最完好的沉船之一,它慢慢地揭示了它的秘密。)”可知,Gribshunden沉船被认为是那个时期保存最完好的沉船;综合以上信息可知,这两艘沉船的共同之处是它们被发现时保存完好。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Black Swan”部分中的“After a long legal battle, the treasure was returned to Spain in 2012.(经过长期的法律斗争,这些宝藏于2012年被归还给西班牙。)”可知,在经过长期的法律斗争后,Black Swan才得以回归西班牙;由此可知,西班牙是诉诸于法律才得以让Black Swan回归。故选A项。
B
I used to want to be a zookeeper, but after becoming a wildlife rescue worker, I found that this work is even more valuable than I thought. Not only can I help injured wild animals, but I can also facilitate their return to the wild.

I am often asked whether I feel at all sad when it’s time to release the animals — to tell you the truth, I’m always pretty willing to let them go. All of my efforts have been toward allowing them to return to the wild, and the wild is where they belong, so there’s no reason for reluctance on my part.

D. It involves both rescue and release efforts.
5. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling to release the rescued animals?

6. Which is closest in meaning to “imprinted on” in paragraph 3?

C. Was sensitive to. D. Was cautious of.
7. What is the key to the success of wildlife rescue work?
A. Animals’ faith in humans.
B. Human’s knowledge in the work.
C. Human’s attitude towards animals.
D. Animals’ ability to survive in the wild.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文体裁为记叙文。作者分享了自己作为野生动物救援工作者的亲身经历和感受,讲述了救助并放归野生动物的过程,以及对于这份工作的看法和情感。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I used to want to be a zookeeper, but after becoming a wildlife rescue worker, I found that this work is even more valuable than I thought. Not only can I help injured wild animals, but I can also facilitate their return to the wild. (我曾经想成为一名动物园管理员,但在成为一名野生动物救援人员后,我发现这份工作比我想象的更有价值。我不仅可以帮助受伤的野生动物,还可以帮助它们重返野外。)”可知,作者的工作既包括救助受伤的野生动物,也涉及帮助它们回归野外。 故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I am often asked whether I feel at all sad when it’s time to release the animals — to tell you the truth, I’m always pretty willing to let them go. (经常有人问我,当要放生动物的时候,我是否感到难过——说实话,我总是很愿意放生它们的。)”可知,当被问及放生动物时是否感到悲伤,作者表示自己总是很愿意放它们走。这表明作者对此是感到高兴的。故选B。

Tourists come in flocks from all parts of China to Rongjiang, a small county in a remote mountainous area, which has recently become popular for its “Village Super League”, creating a spectacular sports carnival in China.
During a match in May, Wu Chuguo, a decoration worker from Liubaitang village, Rongjiang County, scored a spectacular 40-meter goal that ignited (点燃) the crowd. Wu said he was influenced by elders in his village and fell in love with the sport. In the county, rural soccer matches have taken place regularly since the 1990s. When there was a lack of facilities, soccer players used barren land as a field and wooden stakes for the posts. The boundaries were marked out with lime powder. When they couldn't gather enough players, they played futsal, a soccer-based game played on a smaller hard court.
In recent years, the county has focused on gymnastics, soccer, rock climbing and other sports. What sets the Village Super League apart from other sports events are the vivid displays of ethnic cultures and traditions at the tournament. As players of both teams walk on the field for a game, they are accompanied by their cheering squads (啦啦队) dressed in traditional ethnic costumes and carrying local specialties. The halftime break features folk songs and dance performances, while ethnic costumes are also on display.
“hope that more and more tourists will come to Rongjiang to watch the matches, enjoy the folk customs and local cuisine, and have fun,” said Xiong Zhuqing, a melon grower who is also a cheerleader. She says she has sold over 10,000 kilograms of watermelons since the start of the tournament. As of June 27, a total of 654 new businesses were established, including 91 in the catering sector, 188 in retail, and 195 in agriculture and food processing, the local government said.

A “spark bird” is the species that inspires someone to start birdwatching, namely birding. For Trish Kane, that bird was the cardinal (红衣凤头鸟). Hearing cardinals’ calls was an initial step toward over 1,960 hours of birding, 33 field notebooks and a career change. In her book, Birding to Change the World, Kane charts her transformation from a journalist to an environmentalist.
In 2005, a terrible hurricane hit Kane’s hometown. After it, she had to cope with the loss of her home. In watching the cardinals and other birds, she found relief. Soon she started bringing her students along. “My students stared at me in disbelief when I told them I had never cared about birds before,” Kane writes. “I suddenly wondered how many creatures would die because of the way we lived.” She decided to pursue an environmentally-conscious career. In 2007, she took a course to study environmental science.
Most of the book focuses on Kane’s efforts to preserve Warner Park, an ideal location satisfying birding requirements for her class. She successfully campaigned to stop the construction of a parking lot. Her activism snowballed into a local bird watching and protecting organization. It eventually became part of Kane’s doctoral research, and launched a birding class that pairs middle school students with college-student advisors.
The book shows readers that a good knowledge of nature doesn’t require a degree. Take Jeremy, a seemingly uninterested boy in Kane’s birding class. When reporters joined an outing, the normally quiet Jeremy started talking excitedly about the bunting, a small blue bird. Kane soon learned that he had secretly taken to studying the field guide given to him by his advisor.
At its core, Birding to Change the World is about how people and birds today depend on one another. “For birds, that dependence is concrete. For thousands of years, our species has seen birds as a symbol of liberation,” Kane writes. In her case, it is liberation from the grief and depression that the hurricane brought. “Bird by bird, they carve a new pathway in my life, a joyful pathway.”
12. What made Kane pursue an environmentalist career?
A. Her guilt about the serious harm to birds. B. The desire to guide students to go birding.
C. The comfort from birding after the disaster. D. Her students’ disbelief in her ignorance of birds.
13. What can we learn about Kane from paragraph 3?
A. She worked hard on her latest book. B. She protected Warner Park on her own.
C. Her birding class consisted of advisors. D. Her activism led to positive chain effects.
14. What does Jeremy’s experience suggest?
A. Interest in nature differs between kids and adults.
B. Children learn more from nature than from books.
C. Children are born curious about outdoor activities.
D. Potential in kids can be released with proper guide.
15. Which is the best title for the text?
A. A Joyful Experience of Birding B. The Transformative Power of Birding
C. A Life Journey of an Environmentalist D. The Self-appreciation of a Book Writer
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】

Soon she started bringing her students along. “My students stared at me in disbelief when I told them I had never cared about birds before,” Kane writes. “I suddenly wondered how many creatures would die because of the way we lived.” She decided to pursue an environmentally-conscious career.(在观察红雀和其他鸟类时,她找到了解脱。很快,她开始带着她的学生一起去。“当我告诉学生们我以前从未关心过鸟类时,他们难以置信地盯着我看,”凯恩写道。“我突然想知道,有多少生物会因为我们的生活方式而死去。”她决定从事环保事业)”可知,灾后观鸟带来的安慰促使凯恩从事环保事业。故选C。

It eventually became part of Kane’s doctoral research, and launched a birding class that pairs middle school students with college-student advisors.(这本书的大部分内容都集中在凯恩保护华纳公园的努力上,华纳公园是一个理想的地方,满足了她的班级观鸟的要求。她成功地发起运动,阻止了一个停车场的建设。她的行动如滚雪球般发展成了当地的一个鸟类观察和保护组织。它最终成为凯恩博士研究的一部分,并推出了一个观鸟班,让中学生和大学生顾问结成对子)”可知,凯恩的行动主义产生了积极的连锁效应。故选D。

When reporters joined an outing, the normally quiet Jeremy started talking excitedly about the bunting, a small blue bird. Kane soon learned that he had secretly taken to studying the field guide given to him by his advisor.(以杰里米为例,他似乎对凯恩的观鸟课不感兴趣。当记者们参加一次郊游时,平时安静的杰里米开始兴奋地谈论起狩猎一只蓝色的小鸟。凯恩很快就知道他已经秘密地开始研究他的导师给他的野外指南)”可知,杰里米的经历说明了孩子的潜能可以在适当的引导下释放出来。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“In her case, it is liberation from the grief and depression that the hurricane brought. “Bird by bird, they carve a new pathway in my life, a joyful pathway.”(对她来说,这是从飓风带来的悲伤和沮丧中解脱出来的。“一只又一只鸟,它们在我的生命中开辟了一条新的道路,一条快乐的道路。”)”结合文章主要说明了Kane通过观鸟缓解了失去家园的痛苦,于是她从事环保事业,并且引发了积极的连锁效应。可知,B选项“观鸟的变革力量”最符合文章标题。故选B。

Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.___18___
Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.___19___And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
___20___It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.
A. Do the opposite.
B. You want to be an effective public speaker.
C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.
D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.
E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience
F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners

【19题详解】
本段是说明练习的重要性。上句提到你的目标不是成为一个完美的演说家,下句应该说明目标是什么。B. You want to be an effective public speaker.与上句衔接,是我们演讲的真正目的。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是被称之为“微笑天使”的江豚及其现状。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:这个名字的含义分为两部分:“han”意味着它出生在湖北省武汉市,而“bao”在中文中的意思是小婴儿。分析句子结构可知,此处因为介词与前面的divid构成固定搭配,be divided into意为“被分成……”。故填into。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意:这个名字的含义分为两部分:“han”意味着它出生在湖北省武汉市,而“bao”在中文中的意思是小婴儿。分析句子结构可知,此处应为连词连接两个句子,结合句意可知,空前和空后的两个句子之间为并列关系。故填while/and。
【38题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:作为武汉当地百暨豚博物馆中最胖的江豚,汉宝重约70公斤。分析句子结构可知,此处应为谓语动词,结合语境可知,此处是在客观陈述现在的情况,所以使用一般现在时态,weigh意为“重达……”为不及物动词,所以与主语只能表示主动关系,且主语Hanbao为第三人称单数。故填weighs。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意:江豚,又称“微笑天使”,已成为长江生态系统健康的标志。分析句子结构可知,此空后为可数名词单数,需填冠词,结合句意可知,此处表示泛指,意为“一个标志”,且sign的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
【40题详解】
考查代词。句意:尽管40多年来一直在努力保护江豚,但其数量仍在继续下降。分析句子结构可知,此空处后为名词number,此处应为形容词性物主代词,it的形容词性物主代词形式为its。故填its。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,10月25日对长江江豚进行的一项科学调查表明,该物种已经恢复。分析句子结构可知,此处应为非谓语动词作定语修饰survey,carry out意为“执行”与survey之间为被动关系,且该动作已经发生,所以使用过去分词形式。故填carried。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这一变化是由于2021年1月1日开始的长达10年的长江禁渔令和两个月后生效的《长江保护法》。分析句子结构可知,此处应为连词引导的非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词是a 10-year fishing ban on the Yangtze River,应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:由于这些措施,长江沿岸地区搬迁了化工厂,恢复了湿地,重新组织了航行路线。分析句子结构可知,此处应为名词作主语,谓语动词have relocated为复数,所以主语也应为复数。故填regions。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:所有这些努力最终改善了江豚的生态环境,为江豚注入了活力。分析句子结构可知,此处应为副词作状语,ultimate的副词为ultimately。故填ultimately。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:所有这些努力最终改善了江豚的生态环境,为江豚注入了活力。分析句子结构可知,此处应为非谓语动词作状语,help与逻辑主语all the efforts之间为主动关系,所以使用现在分词形式。故填helping。

I taught English as a Second Language (ESL) at a school. One particular sixth grader, Pablo, was struggling with fluency in reading, so after class I suggested that he get extra practice by reading aloud to his mom while she prepared dinner each evening. This was something I routinely encouraged my struggling students to do. Imagine my surprise when Pablo responded by starting to cry. He said, “My mom can’t cook dinner!” Then he cried harder. Eventually, he calmed down enough to tell me that his mom was only able to “cry in her bed” when he got home every afternoon. He said that he was caring for his six-month-old baby brother by himself from the time he got home each day. His mother, it seemed, had a bad tooth and was in extreme pain. He said that his father didn’t have enough money to get it fixed, and that there was no way for her to go to a dentist. This child’s heart was broken for his mom.
I was speechless! He was still crying when he left me that day, and I promised him I would try to help. I kept asking myself how I could help this student. How could I help his mother when we didn’t even speak the same language?
The next day, I sent a note, which a friend helped me translate, to Pablo’s mother asking if she would like me to find someone to help her. The following day, Pablo brought me a note from his mom accepting my offer to help.
Meanwhile, I had been doing some networking among my friends asking if anyone knew a dentist who might do some free work for this lady. At the time, I was not able to pay for the work to be done myself. Several friends suggested a dental office that had recently opened up in the area, thinking that they might be willing to provide the services. I didn’t want to waste a lot of time going to several dentists, so I prayed that this would be the one.

【答案】Stopping by the dental office, I went to the reception desk. After explaining the situation and showing them Pablo’s mother’s note, I anxiously awaited their response. To my relief, they agreed to help without charging any fees. Overjoyed, I quickly contacted Pablo's mother to inform her of the good news. She was so grateful that she couldn’t stop thanking me through her tears.
Pablo’s mother came to meet the dentist at the appointed time. The dentist examined her tooth and successfully treated it, alleviating her pain. As a token of appreciation, she prepared some delicious homemade cookies for me. When I shared the good news with Pablo, he was over the moon and hugged me tightly, expressing his gratitude in his broken English. Seeing their happiness, I felt a sense of fulfillment and pride in being able to make a difference in their lives.

②由第二段首句内容“帕布罗的母亲在约定的时间去见牙医。”可知,第二段可描写牙医治好了帕布罗的母亲的牙,减轻了疼痛。当作者将消息告知帕布罗的时候,他很感激并用英语表达了他的感激。看到他们的幸福,作者感到了一种成就感。
