Visit in the spring, and you’ll see waterfalls; come in the summer, and you’ll enjoy wildflowers; or arrive in the fall when the leaves put on a colorful show. Joshua Tree National Park Named for the trees native to the park, 1,200-square-mile Joshua Tree National Park in California is slightly larger than the state of Rhode Island. Much of the park is wilderness and includes parts of two deserts, the higher Mojave Desert and the lower Colorado Desert. There are 12 self-guided nature trails (小径), some as short as a half-mile, perfect for young children. Bryce Canyon (峡谷) National Park Despite its name, Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah is not a canyon at all. Instead, it is a collection of giant natural rocks up to 150 feet high. The red, orange and white colors of the rocks make for breathtaking views throughout the park. You can explore the rock formations on a scenic drive or up close and personally on a hike. Grand Teton National Park Located in Wyoming, Grand Teton National Park is home to various wildlife like bears, moose, otters and elk. There are several stand-out hiking trails. This park is connected to Yellowstone National Park by the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway, so it’s incredibly easy to visit both parks in one trip. 1. Where is Joshua Tree National Park? A. In California. B. In Washington. C. In Wyoming. D. In Utah. 2. What is Bryce Canyon National Park famous for? A. Huge waterfalls. B. Various wildlife. C. Unique rocks. D. Mojave Desert. 3. Which of the following is closest to Yellowstone National Park? A. Joshua Tree National Park. B. Grand Teton National Park. C. Bryce Canyon National Park. D. Mount Rainier National Park. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了美国四个最受欢迎的国家公园。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Joshua Tree National Park部分的“Named for the trees native to the park, 1,200-square-mile Joshua Tree National Park in California is slightly larger than the state of Rhode Island. Much of the park is wilderness and includes parts of two deserts, the higher Mojave Desert and the lower Colorado Desert.(加利福尼亚州的Joshua Tree国家公园占地1200平方英里，以公园内的树木命名，略大于罗德岛州。公园的大部分是荒野，包括两个沙漠的一部分，较高的莫哈韦沙漠和较低的科罗拉多沙漠)”可知，Joshua Tree国家公园位于美国加州。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Bryce Canyon (峡谷) National Park部分“Instead, it is a collection of giant natural rocks up to 150 feet high. The red, orange and white colors of the rocks make for breathtaking views throughout the park.(相反，它是高达150英尺的巨型天然岩石的集合。岩石的红色、橙色和白色使整个公园的景色令人叹为观止)”可知，Bryce Canyon国家公园以独特的岩石而闻名。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Grand Teton National Park部分“This park is connected to Yellowstone National Park by the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway, so it’s incredibly easy to visit both parks in one trip.(这个公园通过约翰·D·洛克菲勒纪念风景道与黄石国家公园相连，因此在一个行程中同时游览这两个公园非常方便)”可知，Grand Teton国家公园离黄石国家公园最近。故选B。 B Diego Cardenosa has loved sharks ever since he was a child. The Colombia native was never afraid of them when he visited his beloved beach. Instead, he was fascinated with how sharks moved through water using their fins (鳍). It’s no surprise that he became a marine (海洋的) biologist. Concern grew as Cardenosa learned about the serious state of sharks worldwide. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature reports a shocking rise in the extinction threat to shark species, now affecting 35%, up nearly 50% in a decade. Overfishing stands as the main cause, driven by demand for shark meat and fins. “They are being killed at a rate that cannot survive in the future,” said Cardenosa. “As soon as I realized they were going through a conservation crisis, I wanted to help what I love the most.” Scientists worry the sharks’ dropping numbers could bring ecological disaster as they play a number of key roles in the ocean. Unlike many fish, sharks take a long time to reproduce. Fisheries kill about 100 million sharks a year, according to the non-profit Save Our Seas. Many sharks end up as bycatch when long lines and net s unintentionally catch them. Today, Cardeñosa fights against the illegal shark trade as a Distinguished Postdoctoral Scholar at Florida International University. His innovation — a portable DNA kit like a small red box — plays a key role in identifying shark species and their origins in major ports globally. This breakthrough has greatly improved law enforcement (实施) efforts in ports like Hong Kong, where the amount of seized shark fins has risen from five to a hundred tons annually since the kit’s introduction. Cardeñosa’s efforts extend beyond sharks, aiding authorities in stopping trafficking of other endangered species like European eels and South America’s matamata turtles. His commitment earned him recognition from international criminal police organization. 4. What led to Diego Cardeñosa’s profession? A. His great interest in sharks. B. His surprise at sharks’ value. C. His concern for shark extinction. D. His childhood love for oceans. 5. What is the main reason for shark species being threatened to extinction? A. Climate change. B. City construction. C. Natural disasters. D. Business fishing. 6. What could happen if sharks continue to decrease in numbers? A. There will be fewer attacks on tourists. B. More fish species might become endangered. C. Marine ecological balance could be destroyed. D. Fishing industries would face less competition. 7. What is the function of Diego’s DNA kit? A. It reduces shark fin sales. B. It aids in species identification. C. It changes law enforcement. D. It meets demand for shark products. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了Diego Cardeñosa从小热爱鲨鱼，长大后成为海洋生物学家，致力于保护鲨鱼和其他濒危物种的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Diego Cardenosa has loved sharks ever since he was a child.( Diego Cardenosa从小就喜欢鲨鱼)”和“It’s no surprise that he became a marine biologist.(他成为一名海洋生物学家并不奇怪)”可知，Diego Cardeñosa的职业是由他对鲨鱼的极大兴趣导致的，故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Overfishing stands as the main cause, driven by demand for shark meat and fins.(由于对鲨鱼肉和鱼翅的需求，过度捕捞是主要原因)”可知，鲨鱼物种面临灭绝威胁的主要原因是商业捕鱼，故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Scientists worry the sharks’ dropping numbers could bring ecological disaster as they play a number of key roles in the ocean.(科学家担心鲨鱼数量的下降可能会带来生态灾难，因为它们在海洋中扮演着许多关键角色)”可知，如果鲨鱼的数量继续减少，海洋生态平衡可能会被破坏，故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“His innovation — a portable DNA kit like a small red box — plays a key role in identifying shark species and their origins in major ports globally.(他的发明——一种像小红盒子一样的便携式DNA试剂盒——在全球主要港口识别鲨鱼种类及其来源方面发挥了关键作用)”可知，Diego的DNA试剂盒的功能是有助于物种鉴定，故选B。 C We all have good days and bad days with our health, and it can be difficult when our bodies are not performing the way we want them to or need them to. But our health is not out of our power to control. As a matter of fact, we all do have a super powerful tool right in our own heads. It’s our amazing brain. Researchers that study the brain-body connection have shown in numerous experiments how the brain can be tricked into believing it is getting better. A simple sugar pill (药片) can relieve pain or even cure an illness if the person believes that the pill being taken is genuine medicine. That’s how powerful our brains are. They can make physical changes in our bodies beyond what we would normally give them credit for. There is a book I reread regularly called Super Brain. The authors, Deepak Chopra and Rudolph E. Tanzi, point out that any of us can, if we choose, set up or create our own placebo (安慰剂) effect at any time without any kind of pill. What’s super interesting, as Chopra and Tanzi explain, is that “the effect isn’t limited to drugs, which is important to remember: anything you believe in can act as a placebo”. They also ask where the relief comes from when the placebos are not actually doing anything themselves. They explain that it is simply “the mind telling the body to get well”. The body really believes what it was being told and then it relieves the pain or heals (治愈) the sickness because it believes it can. In other words, your mind can and does influence healing of all kinds including pain, disease and wounds that our bodies deal with from time to time. That is certainly worth trying for most, if not all of us, whenever we want to cure our pain, problems or disease. These kinds of things are probably very helpful to do on a regular basis even. 8. What does the author think of the role of the brain in health? A. It’s strange. B. It’s powerless. C. It’s fantastic. D. It’s uncertain. 9. What does Super Brain suggest about placebo effects? A. They need pills. B. They’re limited to drugs. C. They’re always temporary. D. They can be created mentally. 10. What is the key for a placebo to work according to the text? A. The degree of pain. B. The person’s belief. C. The type of illness. D. The doctor’s advice. 11. What does the author want to say in the text? A. Placebo s are ineffective in medicine. B. Medicine is the best way to treat illness. C. Pain cannot be relieved without medicine. D. The mind influences the healing of the body. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述大脑对于健康而言是一种神奇的工具，它可以创造出“安慰剂效果”，从而减轻疼痛或治愈疾病。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But our health is not out of our power to control. As a matter of fact, we all do have a super powerful tool right in our own heads. It’s our amazing brain.(但是我们的健康并不是我们无法控制的。事实上，我们每个人的大脑里都有一个超级强大的工具。这是我们神奇的大脑)”可知，作者认为大脑对于健康有神奇的作用，故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“There is a book I reread regularly called Super Brain. The authors, Deepak Chopra and Rudolph E. Tanzi, point out that any of us can, if we choose, set up or create our own placebo (安慰剂) effect at any time without any kind of pill.(有一本我经常重读的书叫做《超级大脑》。作者Deepak Chopra和Rudolph E. Tanzi指出，如果我们愿意，任何人都可以在任何时候建立或创造自己的安慰剂效果，而不需要任何药物)”和第四段“What’s super interesting, as Chopra and Tanzi explain, is that “the effect isn’t limited to drugs, which is important to remember: anything you believe in can act as a placebo”.(超级有趣的是，正如Chopra和Tanzi解释的那样，“这种效果并不局限于药物，重要的是要记住：任何你相信的东西都可以作为安慰剂”)”可知，《超级大脑》这本书表明，安慰剂效果并不局限于药物，可以从思想上被创造出来，故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“They explain that it is simply “the mind telling the body to get well”. The body really believes what it was being told and then it relieves the pain or heals (治愈) the sickness because it believes it can. In other words, your mind can and does influence healing of all kinds including pain, disease and wounds that our bodies deal with from time to time.(他们解释说，这只是“大脑告诉身体要好起来”。身体真的相信它被告知的，然后它减轻疼痛或治愈疾病，因为它相信它可以。换句话说，你的大脑可以而且确实影响着各种各样的治疗，包括我们身体不时处理的疼痛、疾病和伤口)”可知，安慰剂起作用的关键是人们的信念，故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第三段中“That’s how powerful our brains are. They can make physical changes in our bodies beyond what we would normally give them credit for.(我们的大脑就是这么强大。它们可以使我们的身体发生超出我们通常认为的生理变化)”和第五段中“In other words, your mind can and does influence healing of all kinds including pain, disease and wounds that our bodies deal with from time to time.(换句话说，你的大脑可以而且确实影响着各种各样的治疗，包括我们身体不时处理的疼痛、疾病和伤口)”可知，本文主要讲述大脑对于健康而言是一种神奇的工具，它可以创造出“安慰剂效果”，从而减轻疼痛或治愈疾病，故作者在本文主要想说的是大脑影响身体的治愈，故选D。 D The world’s largest capital cities are seeing more extremely hot days than ever, according to a new study, which says the dangerous trend (趋势) is being driven by scorching temperatures across Asia as the climate problem worsens. The world’s 20 largest cities — together home to more than 300 million people — have seen a 52% jump in the number of days surpassing 35℃ over the past three decades, according to an analysis by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED). “Climate change is not just a future threat — it’s already happening and getting worse,” IIED senior researcher Tucker Landesman said. “In just one generation, there’s been an alarming increase in the number of days of extreme heat affecting some of the world’s biggest capital cities — made worse by the urban heat island effect, which occurs when cities replace natural land with roads and buildings that keep more heat.” Extreme heat can be deadly, especially for groups at risk who have weaker physiological regulatory (调节) abilities. Higher risk during heat waves can also have a very damaging impact on informal and hourly workers, who may face work stoppages or a choice between staying home unpaid or working in dangerous conditions. Heat also hurts economies, damaging crops and animals and reducing labor productivity. According to a 2022 Dartmouth College study, extreme heat has cost the global economy large amounts of dollars since the early 1990s, with the world’s poorest countries bearing the force of the impact. “Responding to the challenge of extreme heat will require decisive action from policymakers, including serious investment to adapt to this new reality,” said Landesman. “For many cities, it’s not a lack of knowledge or capacity or resources that’s preventing large-scale action to address climate change, rather it’s a lack of political will and governing tools.” 12. Which can best explain the underlined word “scorching” in paragraph 1? A. Slightly mild. B. Extremely hot. C. Rarely cold. D. Fairly pleasant. 13 How does the author show the extremes of heat in big cities? A. By giving an example. B. By conducting a research. C. By listing figures. D. By comparing temperatures. 14. Which of the following are most likely at risk during heat waves according to the text? A. Healthy adults. B. Tourists in a museum. C. Young children and the elderly. D. Urban planners and policymakers. 15. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A. The various harms caused by extreme heat. B. The effects of extreme heat on human health. C. The increasing trend of extremely hot days globally. D. The pressing need for political action on climate change. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。这是一篇关于全球大城市极端高温现象的研究报告。文章主要介绍了全球最大城市极端高温天数的增加，以及极端高温对人类社会和经济的影响，并呼吁政策制定者采取决定性行动来应对这一挑战。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“The world’s largest capital cities are seeing more extremely hot days than ever, according to a new study(根据一项新的研究，世界上最大的首都城市的极端炎热天气比以往任何时候都要多)”以及划线词后文“temperatures across Asia as the climate problem worsens”可知，随着气候问题的加剧，亚洲各地的高温天气正在加剧这一危险趋势。即“dangerous trend”指的是极端高温的加剧，因此“scorching”应该表示“极其炎热的”。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The world’s 20 largest cities — together home to more than 300 million people — have seen a 52% jump in the number of days surpassing 35℃ over the past three decades, according to an analysis by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED).(根据国际环境与发展研究所（IIED）的一项分析，在过去30年里，全球20个最大的城市（总人口超过3亿）气温超过35℃的天数增加了52%)”可知，作者通过列举具体的数字来展示大城市高温极端的严重性。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Extreme heat can be deadly, especially for groups at risk who have weaker physiological regulatory (调节) abilities.(极端高温可能是致命的，尤其是对生理调节能力较弱的高危人群)”可知，幼儿和老年人在热浪中最有可能处于危险之中。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Extreme heat can be deadly, especially for groups at risk who have weaker physiological regulatory (调节) abilities. Higher risk during heat waves can also have a very damaging impact on informal and hourly workers, who may face work stoppages or a choice between staying home unpaid or working in dangerous conditions. Heat also hurts economies, damaging crops and animals and reducing labor productivity. According to a 2022 Dartmouth College study, extreme heat has cost the global economy large amounts of dollars since the early 1990s, with the world’s poorest countries bearing the force of the impact.(极端高温可能是致命的，特别是对于生理调节能力较弱的高危人群。热浪期间更高的风险也可能对非正式工人和小时工产生非常破坏性的影响，他们可能面临停工或在无薪在家或在危险条件下工作之间做出选择。高温还会损害经济，破坏农作物和动物，降低劳动生产率。根据2022年达特茅斯学院的一项研究，自20世纪90年代初以来，极端高温已经使全球经济损失了大量美元，世界上最贫穷的国家承受了这种影响)”可知，该段详细列举了极端高温对不同群体和经济造成的各种危害。故选A。 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。 Drawing is a great way to express yourself and share your creativity with others. ___16___ That’s because you need only simple supplies.

As he approached the First National Bank this morning, he saw a young man trying to start his car. The young man tried again and again but still failed to get the car moving. “It looks like you’ve got a problem,” Derby said. “I’m afraid so,” replied the young man, who looked very worried. “I’m in a big hurry, but I can’t start my car!” “Is there anything I can do to help?” Derby asked. The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said, “Thanks. If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble, you could help me get these suitcases to the taxi stop. I have called for a taxi and it is coming.” “No trouble at all. I’d be glad to help,” Derby said. The young man took the suitcases from the back seat and handed them to Derby. After Derby walked about 100 meters, the air was suddenly filled with gun shots and sharp sounds from police cars across the streets. “Bank robbery (抢劫)!” one bystander shouted and the crowds on the street started running in all directions. Still carrying the suitcases, Derby joined the crowds and started running, too. Distracted (分心) by the gun shots, Derby ran right into a young woman in front of him. She turned around and looked at the suitcases with a very strange expression on the face. “Why is she looking at me like that?” Derby wondered. “The suitcases! She thinks I’m one of the thieves!” His doubt was confirmed immediately when the woman started yelling, “The thief! The thief!” Suddenly, the crowds turned toward Derby. Feeling threatened, Derby ran even faster. To make things worse, the young man also shouted, “Stop! Stop!” “Why is he shouting? Are these suitcases full of the stolen money?” Derby thought. “I would be killed by the crowds if I were caught now while the young man refused to tell the truth!” 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。 Having considered all the possibilities, Derby decided to run to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But after the policemen unlocked the suitcases, they appeared very confused. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Having considered all the possibilities, Derby decided to run to the police station. Since he knew the neighborhood very well, he rushed into a narrow street. It was the shortest way to the station. Most important of all, it could help him escape from the crowds. Driven by the fear of death, Derby ran even faster than a superman. In a few minutes, he arrived at the station with the suitcases and reported that he had taken control of the stolen money. But after the policemen unlocked the suitcases, they appeared very confused. Derby stepped forward and looked inside the suitcases. There was no cash at all! At that moment, the young man rushed in and was shocked to see Derby and the policemen standing beside his suitcases. “Why are you here? ” the young man asked. “What has happened to my suitcases?” After Derby told him what had been on his mind, the young man and the police burst into laughter! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了德比上班路上偶遇求助青年，帮忙拎行李箱却遭银行抢劫误会，被当作劫匪追赶，最后决定跑向警局的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“考虑了所有的可能性之后，德比决定跑到警察局去。”可知，第一段可描写德比熟悉周围环境，选择了一条通往警局的小路，并快速奔向警局，向警察报告自己控制了被抢的钱。 ②由第二段首句内容“但当警察打开行李箱后，他们显得很困惑。”可知，第二段可描写警察打开行李箱后的困惑，以及青年赶来后的解释，最终误会解除，众人大笑。 2.续写线索：德比决定去警局——选择小路快速奔跑——到达警局报告情况——警察打开行李箱感到困惑——青年赶来解释——误会解除众人大笑 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①冲：rush/dash/hurry ②逃跑：escape/flee/run away ③到达：arrive at/reach 情绪类： ①困惑：confused/puzzled/bemused ②震惊：shocked/surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] Since he knew the neighborhood very well, he rushed into a narrow street.(运用了从属连词since引导原因状语从句) [高分句型2] Driven by the fear of death, Derby ran even faster than a superman.(运用了过去分词短语作状语) [高分句型3] After Derby told him what had been on his mind the young man and the police burst into laughter!(运用了连接代词what引导宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024～2025学年高二2月开学收心考试 英语 考生注意： 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围：选择性必修第一册～选择性必修第二册Unit4。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A,B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Visit in the spring, and you’ll see waterfalls; come in the summer, and you’ll enjoy wildflowers; or arrive in the fall when the leaves put on a colorful show. Joshua Tree National Park Named for the trees native to the park, 1,200-square-mile Joshua Tree National Park in California is slightly larger than the state of Rhode Island. Much of the park is wilderness and includes parts of two deserts, the higher Mojave Desert and the lower Colorado Desert. There are 12 self-guided nature trails (小径), some as short as a half-mile, perfect for young children. Bryce Canyon (峡谷) National Park Despite its name, Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah is not a canyon at all. Instead, it is a collection of giant natural rocks up to 150 feet high. The red, orange and white colors of the rocks make for breathtaking views throughout the park. You can explore the rock formations on a scenic drive or up close and personally on a hike. Grand Teton National Park Located in Wyoming, Grand Teton National Park is home to various wildlife like bears, moose, otters and elk. There are several stand-out hiking trails. This park is connected to Yellowstone National Park by the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway, so it’s incredibly easy to visit both parks in one trip. 1. Where is Joshua Tree National Park? A.

B Diego Cardenosa has loved sharks ever since he was a child. The Colombia native was never afraid of them when he visited his beloved beach. Instead, he was fascinated with how sharks moved through water using their fins (鳍). It’s no surprise that he became a marine (海洋的) biologist. Concern grew as Cardenosa learned about the serious state of sharks worldwide. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature reports a shocking rise in the extinction threat to shark species, now affecting 35%, up nearly 50% in a decade. Overfishing stands as the main cause, driven by demand for shark meat and fins. “They are being killed at a rate that cannot survive in the future,” said Cardenosa. “As soon as I realized they were going through a conservation crisis, I wanted to help what I love the most.” Scientists worry the sharks’ dropping numbers could bring ecological disaster as they play a number of key roles in the ocean. Unlike many fish, sharks take a long time to reproduce. Fisheries kill about 100 million sharks a year, according to the non-profit Save Our Seas. Many sharks end up as bycatch when long lines and net s unintentionally catch them. Today, Cardeñosa fights against the illegal shark trade as a Distinguished Postdoctoral Scholar at Florida International University. His innovation — a portable DNA kit like a small red box — plays a key role in identifying shark species and their origins in major ports globally. This breakthrough has greatly improved law enforcement (实施) efforts in ports like Hong Kong, where the amount of seized shark fins has risen from five to a hundred tons annually since the kit’s introduction. Cardeñosa’s efforts extend beyond sharks, aiding authorities in stopping trafficking of other endangered species like European eels and South America’s matamata turtles. His commitment earned him recognition from international criminal police organization. 4. What led to Diego Cardeñosa’s profession? A. His great interest in sharks. B. His surprise at sharks’ value. C. His concern for shark extinction. D. His childhood love for oceans. 5. What is the main reason for shark species being threatened to extinction? A. Climate change. B. City construction. C Natural disasters. D. Business fishing. 6. What could happen if sharks continue to decrease in numbers? A. There will be fewer attacks on tourists. B. More fish species might become endangered. C. Marine ecological balance could be destroyed. D. Fishing industries would face less competition. 7. What is the function of Diego’s DNA kit? A. It reduces shark fin sales. B. It aids in species identification. C. It changes law enforcement. D. It meets demand for shark products. C We all have good days and bad days with our health, and it can be difficult when our bodies are not performing the way we want them to or need them to. But our health is not out of our power to control. As a matter of fact, we all do have a super powerful tool right in our own heads. It’s our amazing brain. Researchers that study the brain-body connection have shown in numerous experiments how the brain can be tricked into believing it is getting better. A simple sugar pill (药片) can relieve pain or even cure an illness if the person believes that the pill being taken is genuine medicine. That’s how powerful our brains are. They can make physical changes in our bodies beyond what we would normally give them credit for. There is a book I reread regularly called Super Brain. The authors Deepak Chopra and Rudolph E. Tanzi, point out that any of us can, if we choose, set up or create our own placebo (安慰剂) effect at any time without any kind of pill. What’s super interesting, as Chopra and Tanzi explain, is that “the effect isn’t limited to drugs, which is important to remember: anything you believe in can act as a placebo”. They also ask where the relief comes from when the placebos are not actually doing anything themselves. They explain that it is simply “the mind telling the body to get well”. The body really believes what it was being told and then it relieves the pain or heals (治愈) the sickness because it believes it can. In other words, your mind can and does influence healing of all kinds including pain, disease and wounds that our bodies deal with from time to time. That is certainly worth trying for most, if not all of us, whenever we want to cure our pain, problems or disease. These kinds of things are probably very helpful to do on a regular basis even. 8. What does the author think of the role of the brain in health? A. It’s strange. B. It’s powerless. C. It’s fantastic. D. It’s uncertain. 9. What does Super Brain suggest about placebo effects? A. They need pills. B. They’re limited to drugs. C. They’re always temporary. D. They can be created mentally. 10. What is the key for a placebo to work according to the text? A. The degree of pain. B. The person’s belief. C. The type of illness. D. The doctor’s advice. 11. What does the author want to say in the text? A. Placebo s are ineffective in medicine. B. Medicine is the best way to treat illness. C. Pain cannot be relieved without medicine. D. The mind influences the healing of the body. D The world’s largest capital cities are seeing more extremely hot days than ever, according to a new study, which says the dangerous trend (趋势) is being driven by scorching temperatures across Asia as the climate problem worsens. The world’s 20 largest cities — together home to more than 300 million people — have seen a 52% jump in the number of days surpassing 35℃ over the past three decades, according to an analysis by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED). “Climate change is not just a future threat — it’s already happening and getting worse,” IIED senior researcher Tucker Landesman said. “In just one generation, there’s been an alarming increase in the number of days of extreme heat affecting some of the world’s biggest capital cities — made worse by the urban heat island effect, which occurs when cities replace natural land with roads and buildings that keep more heat.” Extreme heat can be deadly, especially for groups at risk who have weaker physiological regulatory (调节) abilities. Higher risk during heat waves can also have a very damaging impact on informal and hourly workers, who may face work stoppages or a choice between staying home unpaid or working in dangerous conditions. Heat also hurts economies, damaging crops and animals and reducing labor productivity. According to a 2022 Dartmouth College study, extreme heat has cost the global economy large amounts of dollars since the early 1990s, with the world’s poorest countries bearing the force of the impact. “Responding to the challenge of extreme heat will require decisive action from policymakers, including serious investment to adapt to this new reality,” said Landesman. “For many cities, it’s not a lack of knowledge or capacity or resources that’s preventing large-scale action to address climate change, rather it’s a lack of political will and governing tools.” 12.

As he approached the First National Bank this morning, he saw a young man trying to start his car. The young man tried again and again but still failed to get the car moving. “It looks like you’ve got a problem,” Derby said. “I’m afraid so,” replied the young man, who looked very worried. “I’m in a big hurry, but I can’t start my car!” “Is there anything I can do to help?” Derby asked. The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said, “Thanks. If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble, you could help me get these suitcases to the taxi stop. I have called for a taxi and it is coming.” “No trouble at all. I’d be glad to help,” Derby said. The young man took the suitcases from the back seat and handed them to Derby. After Derby walked about 100 meters, the air was suddenly filled with gun shots and sharp sounds from police cars across the streets. “Bank robbery (抢劫)!” one bystander shouted and the crowds on the street started running in all directions. Still carrying the suitcases, Derby joined the crowds and started running, too. Distracted (分心) by the gun shots, Derby ran right into a young woman in front of him. She turned around and looked at the suitcases with a very strange expression on the face. “Why is she looking at me like that?” Derby wondered. “The suitcases! She thinks I’m one of the thieves!” His doubt was confirmed immediately when the woman started yelling, “The thief! The thief!” Suddenly, the crowds turned toward Derby. Feeling threatened, Derby ran even faster. To make things worse, the young man also shouted, “Stop! Stop!” “Why is he shouting? Are these suitcases full of the stolen money?” Derby thought. “I would be killed by the crowds if I were caught now while the young man refused to tell the truth!” 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。 Having considered all the possibilities, Derby decided to run to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But after the policemen unlocked the suitcases, they appeared very confused. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
