Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books. Stuttgart City Library Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings. Library of Parliament Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings. Rampur Raza Library Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957. 1. Of the following libraries, which is the oldest? A. Trinity College Library. B. Library of Parliament. C. Stuttgart City Library. D. Rampur Raza Library. 2. Who designed the library appearing on the ten-dollar bill? A. Eun Young Yi. B. Thomas Burgh. C. Nawab Hamid Ali Khan. D. Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones. 3. What do the four libraries have in common? A. They house the rarest books. B. They were unusually designed. C. They were expanded as needed. D. They overlook surrounding buildings. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是应用文。文章介绍了四个设计独特的图书馆的相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years.(长厅是图书馆65米长的主厅，始建于1712年，历时20年)”；第二段中“Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi.( 2011年开放的德国图书馆是由李恩英设计的玻璃块组成的华丽的浅灰色立方体)”；第三段中“Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill.(1876年的国会图书馆是加拿大最珍贵的建筑瑰宝之一，它被印在10美元纸币上，它的外形是维多利亚哥特式的教堂，有16个飞扶壁)”以及最后一段中“Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects.(印度图书馆建于18世纪晚期，收藏了大量的伊斯兰和亚洲文献和物品)”比较可知，Trinity College Library历史最悠久，故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三部分中“Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings.(建筑师Thomas Fuller和Chilion Jones从大英博物馆阅览室获得了结构的灵感，在中央大厅里排列着精致的木架和木雕)”可知，加拿大的国会图书馆印在了面值10加元的钞票上，设计灵感来自大英博物馆的阅览室，设计者为Thomas Fuller和Chilion Jones。故选D。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了四家图书馆独特的建筑风格。藏书、扩建及凌驾于周围建筑物之上，只是部分或个别图书馆有所涉及，故选B项。 B Half a year ago, Lacey Scott was shopping for supplies at a local pet store in Kansas City, Missouri. When she was in that location, a bored face of a little goldfish attracted her attention, and she didn’t stop staring at it the entire time she was there. Lying at the bottom of a dark fish tank, the sad fish didn’t appear to have much of a wish to survive. Lacey learned from a store clerk that the fish was ten years old and had spent a long time in that depressing tank. “I couldn’t take my mind off him. I couldn’t bear the thought of a fish who had wasted so much of its life and would end up dying in a pet store,” Lacey said. Lacey approached the store owner and asked if she could take the small fish home with her. What no one realized was that the small fish’s best days were still to come: all it needed was a second chance. Lacey returned home and built a pond out of various materials for the fish she named “Monstro”. She changed his water every day to keep it clean and fresh, and fed him with only the fish food. Monstro, on the other hand, did not appear to be enjoying his new living environment, not even moving to have his meal. Despite this, Lacey did not give up on him and continued to provide him with specialized care. “I found him swimming for small amounts of time after a month,” Lacey said. “And it was at that point that I realized things began to change.” Monstro’s body began to change as well. The gray scales (鱼鳞) that made him seem unwell began to change colors. His small body began to shine, showing that his condition had improved greatly. Lacey put Monstro into a much larger tank once he had fully recovered, where he continues to live in the greatest possible way. 4. Why did the goldfish at the pet store catch Lacey Scott’s attention? A. He was a rare type of goldfish. B. He looked sad and was tired of life. C. He looked energetic, colorful and lovely. D. He was so old that he could hardly move. 5. How was the fish when he just arrived at Lacey’s home? A. He tried to jump out of the pond. B. He adapted to his new life very quickly. C. He seemed not to be fond of his new home. D. He appeared to be dead and floated on the surface. 6. When did Lacey start to find Monstro’s change? A. The fish began to swim in the pond. B. The fish started to eat a lot of food. C. The fish’s scales began to change colors. D. The fish came to the surface to breathe. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A goldfish bought by a woman recovers from his injury. B. A woman builds a new pond for an active goldfish. C. A kind woman saves a goldfish from being killed. D. A goldfish adopted by a woman starts a new life. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Lacey把偶遇的孤独落寞的小金鱼带回家仔细照料，赋予金鱼新的生命。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“When she was in that location, a bored face of a little goldfish attracted her attention, and she didn’t stop staring at it the entire time she was there.” （当她在那个地方的时候，一张无聊的小金鱼的脸吸引了她的注意，她在那里的整个时间都在盯着它看。）及第二段第一句“Lying at the bottom of a dark fish tank, the sad fish didn’t appear to have much of a wish to survive.”（这条悲伤的鱼躺在一个黑暗的鱼缸底部，似乎没有多大的生存愿望。）及第三段第一句“I couldn’t take my mind off him”（我没法不去想他。）可知，金鱼看起来很悲伤，对生活感到厌倦，因此吸引了Lacey Scott的注意力。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段最后一句“Monstro, on the other hand, did not appear to be enjoying his new living environment, not even moving to have his meal.”（另一方面，Monstro似乎并不喜欢他的新生活环境，甚至不去吃饭。）可知，金鱼似乎不喜欢他的新家。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段最后两句““I found him swimming for small amounts of time after a month,” Lacey said. “And it was at that point that I realized things began to change.””（“一个月后，我发现他开始慢慢游泳了，”Lacey说。“就在那时，我意识到事情开始发生变化。”）可知，当金鱼开始在水里游来游去时，Lacey意识到了金鱼的变化。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Lacey approached the store owner and asked if she could take the small fish home with her.”（Lacey找到店主，问她是否可以把小鱼带回家。） 及第五段“What no one realized was that the small fish’s best days were still to come: all it needed was a second chance.”（没有人意识到的是，这条小鱼的好日子还在后面：它所需要的只是第二次机会。）及最后一段“Lacey put Monstro into a much larger tank once he had fully recovered, where he continues to live in the greatest possible way.”（在Monstro完全康复后，Lacey把他放进了一个更大的水箱里，在那里他继续以可能最好的方式生活。）并结合文章内容可知，本文主要讲述了Lacey把偶遇的孤独落寞的小金鱼带回家仔细照料，赋予金鱼新的生命。故选D项。 C Scientists estimate there are millions of trees on earth. I couldn’t believe that those trees can have a healing(治愈的)effect on people. According to World Health Organization, 40 percent of American adults have at least two chronic(慢性病的)diseases, which include high blood pressure, mood disorders, heart problems and diabetes. According to the International Association of Applied Psychology, lower stress, better moods, better brain activity and even happiness can all be linked to spending time in the great outdoors. That’s why there are dozens of programs that prescribe nature as a potential form of healing. Nature is everywhere. There are two major theories as to why nature is so good for our brains. The first one is called attention restoration theory. When we spend time in busy urban environments, all the hard edges, traffic, lights and people everywhere really make us have to constantly focus our attention on these things. Whereas when you spend time in nature, it helps restore your powers of attention and reduce that tiredness and bad-temper. The second major theory is called stress reduction theory. So basically, when we spend time in nature after stressful events, it helps us feel better and recover faster. When I recommended nature for the first time to a patient of mine, he actually just nodded his head and said, “You’re absolutely right. When I spend more time in nature, I feel better.” And so, I think healthcare providers have to get over our own traditional mental views against this new sort of lifestyle, and prescribe something evidence-based, like nature time more often. This is worth the effort to do. You need to get out of doors and just be surrounded by the greenery and by nature. You’ll feel calmer. You’ll feel less depressed and less anxious. It’s just a great way to deal with the stress of modern life. 8. Which word can replace the underlined word “prescribe”? A. Practice. B. Provide. C. Suggest. D. Explore. 9. What is the function of paragraph 2? A. To clarify a concept. B. To lead in the topic. C. To make a conclusion. D. To provide evidence. 10. How does nature help people according to the two major theories? A. Refresh oneself. B. Live a better life. C. Improve urban environments. D. Deal with stressful issues. 11. What can be inferred according to paragraph 4? A. It is not easy to get in nature. B. Nature treatment is still unpopular. C. Most patients prefer nature treatment. D. Doctors usually recommend nature to patients. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型的大自然疗法，帮助病人通过接近大自然，远离城市的喧嚣，减少压力，从而恢复身体健康。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“According to the International Association of Applied Psychology, lower stress, better moods, better brain activity and even happiness can all be linked to spending time in the great outdoors. (根据国际应用心理学协会的说法，更低的压力，更好的情绪，更好的大脑活动，甚至快乐都可以与花时间在户外有关。)”以及划线单词所在句子的主谓部分“That’s why(这是……的原因)”可知，前一句中所说的减轻压力与在户外有关系，与后一句有因果关系，因为自然疗法对身体有好处，因此很多项目才会建议把自然作为潜在的治疗方法。A.practice练习；B.provide提供；C.suggest建议；D.explore探讨。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Scientists estimate there are millions of trees on earth. I couldn’t believe that those trees can have a healing(治愈的)effect on people. (科学家估计地球上有数百万棵树。我不敢相信这些树能对人有治疗作用。)”引出话题。第二段“According to World Health Organization, 40 percent of American adults have at least two chronic(慢性病的)diseases, which include high blood pressure, mood disorders, heart problems and diabetes. According to the International Association of Applied Psychology, lower stress, better moods, better brain activity and even happiness can all be linked to spending time in the great outdoors. That’s why there are dozens of programs that prescribe nature as a potential form of healing. Nature is everywhere. (根据世界卫生组织的数据，40%的美国成年人患有至少两种慢性疾病，包括高血压、情绪障碍、心脏问题和糖尿病。根据国际应用心理学协会的说法，更低的压力，更好的情绪，更好的大脑活动，甚至快乐都可以与花时间在户外有关。这就是为什么有几十个项目把自然作为一种潜在的治疗形式。大自然无处不在。)”可知，第二段在第一段的基础上进一步举例论证说明大自然对身体疾病有帮助，因此第二段是提供证据，故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The first one is called attention restoration theory. (第一个是注意力恢复理论。)”以及“The second major theory is called stress reduction theory. (第二个主要理论叫做压力减少理论。)”可知，大自然疗法主要采取的方式是减少压力，是人体基本认知恢复。A项“Refresh oneself.(清醒头脑)”符合题意，故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“When I recommended nature for the first time to a patient of mine, he actually just nodded his head and said, “You’re absolutely right. When I spend more time in nature, I feel better.” And so, I think healthcare providers have to get over our own traditional mental views against this new sort of lifestyle, and prescribe something evidence-based, like nature time more often. (当我第一次向我的一位病人推荐大自然时，他实际上只是点了点头，说：‘你说得完全正确。当我花更多的时间在大自然中，我感觉更好。’因此，我认为医疗保健提供者必须克服我们对这种新型生活方式的传统观念，并开出一些基于证据的处方，比如更多地享受自然时光。)”可知，作者在推荐自然疗法的时候，病人并不是非常一开始就接受的，最开始只是“点点头”，而下一句还提到了要克服的问题，说明目前这种疗法大众接受度不高。故选B项。 D Last summer, I went on a trip to Ireland, a place full of mystery and charm (魅力). As soon as I arrived on the beautiful island, I felt the fresh sea wind and saw the green landscapes that seemed to go on forever. In Dublin, I walked through the narrow streets of Temple Bar. The locals were very friendly and always willing to help. They shared their stories and traditions with me, making me feel like I was part of their community. I visited a local market where I saw all kinds of handmade crafts (手艺) and tasted delicious traditional food. The vendors (小贩) were so kind and told me about the history behind their products. I also explored the beautiful parks and gardens, where I saw many people enjoying the sunshine and the natural beauty. I also visited a small village in the west of Ireland. There, I experienced the simple and real countryside life. The people in the village were warm and welcome. I stayed with a local family, and the grandmother taught me how to make traditional Irish soda bread. The kitchen was full of the smell of the freshly baked bread, and when I ate, I felt it was as delicious as I had never tasted. I also helped them with some farm work, like feeding the animals and collecting eggs. It was a great way to experience the Irish way of life. The Irish culture, with its old traditions and the spirit of togetherness, left a lasting mark on me. It made me understand the importance of protecting our own cultural heritage and the value of friendship. This trip to Ireland was not just a journey to a beautiful country, but a journey into the heart of a culture that will always be special in my memory. 12. What was the author’s immediate impression on her first arrival in Ireland? A. Natural beauty. B. Friendly locals. C. Crowded streets. D. Historical buildings. 13. What can we learn about the author’s experience in Dublin? A. She felt like an outsider. B. She was treated differently. C She enjoyed the sense of community. D. She found the locals live a rich life. 14. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The effect of tourism on Irish villages. B. A comparison between new and old farming ways. C. The role of traditional Irish soda bread in local food. D. A personal experience of rural life and cultural traditions. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Tasting Irish Delicious Food B. Getting to Know Irish Culture C. Seeing Ireland’s Beautiful Views D. Old Ways and New Life in Ireland 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者通过爱尔兰之旅体验自然美景与传统文化，深刻感受到文化传承和人文温暖。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As soon as I arrived on the beautiful island, I felt the fresh sea wind and saw the green landscapes that seemed to go on forever. (一到达这个美丽的小岛，我就感受到了清新的海风，看到了绿色的风景，似乎永远不会结束。)”可知，作者第一次到达爱尔兰时，美丽的自然风光，即自然美是作者对爱尔兰的第一印象。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The locals were very friendly and always willing to help. They shared their stories and traditions with me, making me feel like I was part of their community. (当地人非常友好，总是愿意帮助我。他们和我分享他们的故事和传统，让我觉得我是他们社区的一部分。)”可知，都柏林的当地人热情分享故事与传统，让作者感到自己是社区的一部分，由此可知，她喜欢社区的感觉。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“I also visited a small village in the west of Ireland. There, I experienced the simple and real countryside life. The people in the village were warm and welcome. I stayed with a local family, and the grandmother taught me how to make traditional Irish soda bread. The kitchen was full of the smell of the freshly baked bread, and when I ate, I felt it was as delicious as I had never tasted. I also helped them with some farm work, like feeding the animals and collecting eggs. (我还参观了爱尔兰西部的一个小村庄。在那里，我体验了简单而真实的乡村生活。村里的人热情好客。我住在当地的一户人家，奶奶教我如何制作传统的爱尔兰苏打面包。厨房里充满了刚烤好的面包的香味，我吃的时候，觉得这是我从未尝过的美味。我还帮助他们做一些农活，比如喂动物和收集鸡蛋。)”可知，第三段主要讲述作者在西爱尔兰村庄与当地家庭共同生活、学习制作传统食物和参与农活的经历，即作者对乡村生活和文化传统的体验。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The Irish culture, with its old traditions and the spirit of togetherness, left a lasting mark on me. It made me understand the importance of protecting our own cultural heritage and the value of friendship. (爱尔兰文化的古老传统和团结精神给我留下了深刻的印象。这让我明白了保护我们自己的文化遗产的重要性和友谊的价值。)”可知，全文围绕作者体验的爱尔兰的文化之旅展开，这次旅行深化了作者对文化传承的理解，选项B“Getting to Know Irish Culture (了解爱尔兰文化)” 突出了解爱尔兰文化之旅，适合作标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Plan a Friendsgiving meal A Friendsgiyving is when friends gather together to celebrate their friendships.____16____ Hosting a Friendsgiving can be a wonderful way to show thanks to their friends.

Suddenly a crow(乌鸦)landed on their window. The father asked his son, “What is that?” The son replied. “That is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.” After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for third time, “What is this?” This time, the son was irritated(生气地)and said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.” After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?” This time his son shouted in his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?” A minute later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered(破旧的)diary, which had been kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When he read it, the following words were written in the diary: “Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel irritated, but instead felt a deep love for my innocent son.” 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。 After reading the diary, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 After reading the diary, the son was completely struck dumb. His face turned red with guilt as he realized how impatient and disrespectful he had been to his father. The contrast between his father’s boundless patience when he was a child and his own irritability just now was too obvious to ignore. He couldn’t help but reflect on his behavior, deeply regretting his rudeness. Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. With tears streaming down his face, he said, “Father, I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have been so impatient with you. You showed me so much love and patience when I was a child, but I failed to return the same. Please forgive me.” The father gently stroked his son’s head, saying, “Son, it’s okay. I understand. Love is all about understanding and patience.” From then on, the son treated his father with more care and respect, always remembering this lesson about love. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个80岁的父亲和45岁的儿子之间关于一只乌鸦的对话，以及随后父亲通过一本旧日记揭示出的过去对儿子无限耐心的故事，展现了父子之间情感交流和成长。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“读完日记后，”以及第二段首句内容“儿子感到羞愧万分，在父亲面前跪了下来。”可知，第一段可描写儿子意识到刚刚自己对父亲是多么不耐烦，他感到很羞愧。 ②由第二段首句内容“儿子感到羞愧万分，在父亲面前跪了下来。”可知，第二段可描写父亲却并没有责怪儿子，从此，父子之间更加亲密。 2.续写线索：读完日记后，儿子非常愧疚——他意识到刚刚自己对父亲是多么不耐烦——而父亲对自己则是有着无尽的耐心——儿子为自己的无礼深感懊悔——于是，他在父亲面前跪了下来，泪流满面——父亲并没有责备儿子——此后父子二人关系更加亲密 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①忽视：ignore/ neglect ②未能：fail to/ be unable to ③反思：reflect on/ think back to 情绪类 ①无礼的：disrespectful/ irreverent/ discourteous ②小心地：with care/ carefully 【点睛】【高分句型1】His face turned red with guilt as he realized how impatient and disrespectful he had been to his father.（运用了as引导的状语从句和how引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】The contrast between his father’s boundless patience when he was a child and his own irritability just now was too obvious to ignore.（运用了when引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高一年级下学期第二次月考 英语试题 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books. Stuttgart City Library Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings. Library of Parliament Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings. Rampur Raza Library Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957. 1.

B Half a year ago, Lacey Scott was shopping for supplies at a local pet store in Kansas City, Missouri. When she was in that location, a bored face of a little goldfish attracted her attention, and she didn’t stop staring at it the entire time she was there. Lying at the bottom of a dark fish tank, the sad fish didn’t appear to have much of a wish to survive. Lacey learned from a store clerk that the fish was ten years old and had spent a long time in that depressing tank. “I couldn’t take my mind off him. I couldn’t bear the thought of a fish who had wasted so much of its life and would end up dying in a pet store,” Lacey said. Lacey approached the store owner and asked if she could take the small fish home with her. What no one realized was that the small fish’s best days were still to come: all it needed was a second chance. Lacey returned home and built a pond out of various materials for the fish she named “Monstro”. She changed his water every day to keep it clean and fresh, and fed him with only the fish food. Monstro, on the other hand, did not appear to be enjoying his new living environment, not even moving to have his meal. Despite this, Lacey did not give up on him and continued to provide him with specialized care. “I found him swimming for small amounts of time after a month,” Lacey said. “And it was at that point that I realized things began to change.” Monstro’s body began to change as well. The gray scales (鱼鳞) that made him seem unwell began to change colors. His small body began to shine, showing that his condition had improved greatly. Lacey put Monstro into a much larger tank once he had fully recovered, where he continues to live in the greatest possible way. 4. Why did the goldfish at the pet store catch Lacey Scott’s attention? A. He was a rare type of goldfish. B. He looked sad and was tired of life. C. He looked energetic, colorful and lovely. D. He was so old that he could hardly move. 5. How was the fish when he just arrived at Lacey’s home? A. He tried to jump out of the pond. B. He adapted to his new life very quickly. C. He seemed not to be fond of his new home. D. He appeared to be dead and floated on the surface. 6. When did Lacey start to find Monstro’s change? A The fish began to swim in the pond. B. The fish started to eat a lot of food. C. The fish’s scales began to change colors. D. The fish came to the surface to breathe. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A goldfish bought by a woman recovers from his injury. B. A woman builds a new pond for an active goldfish. C. A kind woman saves a goldfish from being killed. D. A goldfish adopted by a woman starts a new life. C Scientists estimate there are millions of trees on earth. I couldn’t believe that those trees can have a healing(治愈的)effect on people. According to World Health Organization, 40 percent of American adults have at least two chronic(慢性病的)diseases, which include high blood pressure, mood disorders, heart problems and diabetes. According to the International Association of Applied Psychology, lower stress, better moods, better brain activity and even happiness can all be linked to spending time in the great outdoors. That’s why there are dozens of programs that prescribe nature as a potential form of healing. Nature is everywhere. There are two major theories as to why nature is so good for our brains. The first one is called attention restoration theory. When we spend time in busy urban environments, all the hard edges, traffic, lights and people everywhere really make us have to constantly focus our attention on these things. Whereas when you spend time in nature, it helps restore your powers of attention and reduce that tiredness and bad-temper. The second major theory is called stress reduction theory. So basically, when we spend time in nature after stressful events, it helps us feel better and recover faster. When I recommended nature for the first time to a patient of mine, he actually just nodded his head and said, “You’re absolutely right. When I spend more time in nature, I feel better.” And so, I think healthcare providers have to get over our own traditional mental views against this new sort of lifestyle, and prescribe something evidence-based, like nature time more often. This is worth the effort to do. You need to get out of doors and just be surrounded by the greenery and by nature. You’ll feel calmer. You’ll feel less depressed and less anxious. It’s just a great way to deal with the stress of modern life. 8. Which word can replace the underlined word “prescribe”? A. Practice. B. Provide. C. Suggest. D. Explore. 9. What is the function of paragraph 2? A. To clarify a concept. B. To lead in the topic. C. To make a conclusion. D. To provide evidence. 10. How does nature help people according to the two major theories? A. Refresh oneself. B. Live a better life. C. Improve urban environments. D. Deal with stressful issues. 11. What can be inferred according to paragraph 4? A. It is not easy to get in nature. B. Nature treatment is still unpopular. C. Most patients prefer nature treatment. D. Doctors usually recommend nature to patients. D Last summer, I went on a trip to Ireland, a place full of mystery and charm (魅力). As soon as I arrived on the beautiful island, I felt the fresh sea wind and saw the green landscapes that seemed to go on forever. In Dublin, I walked through the narrow streets of Temple Bar. The locals were very friendly and always willing to help. They shared their stories and traditions with me, making me feel like I was part of their community. I visited a local market where I saw all kinds of handmade crafts (手艺) and tasted delicious traditional food. The vendors (小贩) were so kind and told me about the history behind their products. I also explored the beautiful parks and gardens, where I saw many people enjoying the sunshine and the natural beauty. I also visited a small village in the west of Ireland. There, I experienced the simple and real countryside life. The people in the village were warm and welcome. I stayed with a local family, and the grandmother taught me how to make traditional Irish soda bread. The kitchen was full of the smell of the freshly baked bread, and when I ate, I felt it was as delicious as I had never tasted. I also helped them with some farm work, like feeding the animals and collecting eggs. It was a great way to experience the Irish way of life. The Irish culture, with its old traditions and the spirit of togetherness, left a lasting mark on me. It made me understand the importance of protecting our own cultural heritage and the value of friendship. This trip to Ireland was not just a journey to a beautiful country, but a journey into the heart of a culture that will always be special in my memory. 12. What was the author’s immediate impression on her first arrival in Ireland? A. Natural beauty. B. Friendly locals. C. Crowded streets. D. Historical buildings. 13. What can we learn about the author’s experience in Dublin? A. She felt like an outsider. B. She was treated differently. C. She enjoyed the sense of community. D.
