Last year I wasn’t sure what to get my mom for Christmas. Nothing I saw in the stores seemed good enough, and I was tired of getting her some general decorations every year. Christmas presents should be more meaningful, I thought. I wanted my present to come from the heart.
The idea came to me one day while I scrolled through Facebook. I saw a photo series where people used old pictures from their childhood and recreated them as adults: I loved the idea. That would be perfect for Mom. I looked through our old family photos and picked one from 16 years ago. It. was the day, we brought my little sister. Vivian home from the hospital. My siblings and I sat in front of the apartment building we used to live in. I was 10 and held Vivian in my arms. My sister Zoe, who was 8 at the time, had her arms around me and our 4-year-old brother, Thomas. Now I just needed to get them together for the remake.

Thomas had to kneel down because now he was taller than us all. Zoe put her arms around us both. Vivian, wrapped in the same blanket, even managed to make a funny baby face. Click! We compared the photos and giggled like kids again.
We presented the photo to Mom on Christmas day. She loved it so much she framed it and put it on the shelf next/ to the original. This year, if you aren’t sure what to get your friends or family, try doing a recreated photo. It’s fun, cheap, and comes from the heart.

In case you haven’t heard, the methane (甲烷) in cow burps (打嗝) is a major source of greenhouse gases. There may be a new way of addressing that problem, however, as a recent study shows that feeding cows clay (黏土) reduces their methane emissions by over 30%.
Cows produce methane as a byproduct of digesting their high-fiber diet, and burp, the gas out on a continuous basis. According to the United Nations Environment Programme, that burped-out methane-from cows and other livestock animals — makes up about 40% of total global methane emissions and can contribute approximately 25 times more to global warming than carbon dioxide.
In order to reduce the methane in cow burps, scientists have experimented with cattle feed supplements such as fish oil, seaweed, tropical leaves, and even baby kangaroo poop. Now, halloysite clay is showing promising results.
In a pilot study conducted by Dr. Bhaba Biswas and colleagues at Australia’s University of Newcastle, it was found that adding a highly-processed form of the natural clay to regular cattle feed reduced the animals’ methane emissions by more than 30% over a 24-hour period.
According to Biswas, the clay limits the activity of gut microbes (肠胃微生物) which produce the methane. The material appears to be harmless to the cattle—after all, they regularly take in soil when farming — and in fact could even have health benefits such as reduced gut acidity. It is ultimately passed with the wastes.
The additives certainly don’t solve the whole problem. More research still needs to be conducted. But methane-cutting supplements increasingly look like a promising way to solve a big part of a very big problem. It is hoped that the highly-processed clay could eventually be sold in the form of inexpensive clay or a misty spray (喷雾).
8. Why is methane in cow burps considered a serious issue?
A. It is more harmful than carbon dioxide. B. It is the only source of greenhouse gases.
C. It is hard to reduce methane in cow burps. D. It is likely to speed up the global warming.
9. How does halloysite clay limit the methane emissions in cattle?
A. By improving the nutritional value of their feed.
B. By killing the gut microbes that produce methane.
C. By reducing the activity of methane-producing microbes.
D. By replacing methane with other gases in the gut.
10. What can be inferred about the potential use of halloysite clay from the passage?
A. It is already widely used in cattle farming.
B. It may be developed into an affordable product for farmers.
C. It has been proven to completely solve the methane problem.
D. It is only effective when used in combination with other additives.
11 What is the best title of the text?
A. The Environmental Impact of Cow Burps. B. Reducing Cow Burp Methane With Clay.
C. The Role of Methane in Global Warming. D. Innovative Solutions for Livestock Farming.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了黏土可以减少奶牛打嗝产生的甲烷排放。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to the United Nations Environment Programme, that burped-out methane-from cows and other livestock animals — makes up about 40% of total global methane emissions and can contribute approximately 25 times more to global warming than carbon dioxide. (根据联合国环境规划署的数据,奶牛和其他家畜打嗝产生的甲烷约占全球甲烷排放总量的40%,对全球变暖的影响大约是二氧化碳的25倍。)”可知,奶牛打嗝产生的甲烷之所以被认为是一个严重的问题,是因为它可能会加速全球变暖。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“According to Biswas, the clay limits the activity of gut microbes (肠胃微生物) which produce the methane. (Biswas表示,这种黏土会限制产生甲烷的肠道微生物的活动。)”可知,埃洛石黏土通过减少产甲烷微生物的活性来限制奶牛的甲烷排放。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It is hoped that the highly-processed clay could eventually be sold in the form of inexpensive clay or a misty spray (喷雾). (人们希望这种经过高度加工的黏土最终能够以廉价黏土或喷雾的形式出售。)”可推知,埃洛石黏土可能会被开发成农民负担得起的产品。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“There may be a new way of addressing that problem, however, as a recent study shows that feeding cows clay (黏土) reduces their methane emissions by over 30%. (然而,最近的一项研究表明,给奶牛喂黏土可以减少30%以上的甲烷排放,这或许是一种解决该问题的新方法。)”可知,文章说明了奶牛打嗝产生的甲烷被认为是全球变暖的一个重要因素,而最近的研究表明,给奶牛喂黏土可以减少它们的甲烷排放量。文章介绍了这种黏土发挥作用的方式以及人们对这种黏土使用的潜在看法。可知,B选项“Reducing Cow Burp Methane With Clay (用黏土减少奶牛打嗝产生的甲烷)”最符合文章标题。故选B。
D
Signing your kids up for soccer in the fall and lacrosse in the spring may do more for them than build social skills or turn them into athletes. A study by researchers at Michigan State University shows that playing sports can also lead to improved academic performance, particularly for college students.
The study found that playing sports in college improved the grade point averages (GPA) of students and increased the likelihood for them to return for another term.
The researchers did research on almost 1,800 freshmen at MSU. The students who played sports averaged a 3.25 GPA at the end of their first year, compared to a 3.07 GPA for freshmen who didn’t play sports.
The findings also showed that playing sports was linked to lower odds of students dropping or failing classes their first year. In fact, those who played sports were 40% more likely to return for their sophomore year, and 2.5 times more likely to come back to the university overall.
“At the end of the year, students who played sports dropped or failed a total average of six credits compared to 7.7 credits among non-playing students,” says lead author Kerri Vasold in a university release. The nearly-two credit difference per year for those who play sports has a large effect on the time it takes to graduate.
As for the ideal number of sports and extracurricular activities that seemed to be most beneficial, researchers say the “sweet spot” ranges from four to seven activities over a school year.
“Don’t go crazy. Don’t join 20 teams,” says co-author Jim Pivarnik. “Grab some friends, find a moderate number of activities and get involved in something different. The four-to-seven range seems to be effective and is linked to a higher GPA.”
Adds Vasold: “There are so many different ways to participate. And the best part is you don’t have to be an all-star basketball player. You can still join a team. It’s an inclusive-environment-and helps students do better and creates a new home.”
12. What do Michigan State University researchers find about playing sports?
A. It helps college students build social skills.
B. It is linked to college students’ better grade.
C. It can turn kids into professional athletes!
D. It has no effect on academic performance.
13. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. By analyzing the data of the freshmen at MSU.
B. By comparing the GPAs of athletes and students.
C. By following students, throughout their college years.
D. By interviewing students about their sports experiences.
14. What does the underlined phrase “sweet spot” in paragraph 6 refer to?
A. The best way to balance sports and academic study.
B. The ideal place for students to play sports on campus.
C. The most suitable time to play sports during a school year.
D. The perfect number of sports and extracurricular activities.
15. Which of the following best describes the overall tone of the passage?
A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Encouraging. D. Skeptical.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现体育对学业成绩的积极影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A study by researchers at Michigan State University shows that playing sports can also lead to improved academic performance, particularly for college students. (密歇根州立大学的研究人员进行的一项研究表明,体育运动也可以提高学习成绩,尤其是对大学生来说。)”可知,密歇根州立大学的研究人员发现,体育运动与大学生的好成绩有关。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers did research on almost 1,800 freshmen at MSU. The students who played sports averaged a 3.25 GPA at the end of their first year, compared to a 3.07 GPA for freshmen who didn’t play sports. (研究人员对密歇根州立大学近1800名新生进行了调查。参加体育运动的学生在第一年结束时的平均GPA为3.25,而不参加体育运动的学生的平均GPA为3.07。)”和第四段“The findings also showed that playing sports was linked to lower odds of students dropping or failing classes their first year. In fact, those who played sports were 40% more likely to return for their sophomore year, and 2.5 times more likely to come back to the university overall. (研究结果还表明,参加体育运动可以降低学生第一年辍学或不及格的几率。事实上,那些参加体育运动的学生在二年级返校的可能性要高出40%,总体来说,返校的可能性要高出2.5倍。)”可知,研究通过学生的数据分析进行。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第六段“As for the ideal number of sports and extracurricular activities that seemed to be most beneficial (至于最有益的运动和课外活动的理想数量)”可知,“sweet spot”指的是完美的运动和课外活动数量。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Signing your kids up for soccer in the fall and lacrosse in the spring may do more for them than build social skills or turn them into athletes. (在秋天给你的孩子报名踢足球,在春天给他们报名长曲棍球,这可能比培养他们的社交技能或把他们培养成运动员更有帮助。)”以及文章强调了体育对学业成绩的积极影响,并鼓励学生参与娱乐活动。语气是支持和鼓舞人心的。故选C。

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。
It was a sunny yet windy day in early spring. Lily, an enthusiastic high-school senior, had been looking forward to this day for weeks. She was finally going to participate in the regional kite-flying competition, an event she had dreamed of joining since she was a little girl.
With her handmade kite in hand, Lily arrived at the competition site full of excitement. The large field was already crowded with participants of all ages, each holding their uniquely designed kites. Lily’s kite was a beautiful creation. She had spent countless hours painting it with delicate floral patterns, using the finest watercolors she could find. As she assembled her kite, she noticed a group of boys nearby snickering. One of them, a tall boy named Jake, loudly commented, “Look at that kite! It’s so old-fashioned. There’s no way it can compete with our high-tech ones.” Lily felt a pang of self-doubt but quickly brushed it off, reminding herself that the beauty of her kite lay in its handmade charm.
As the competition began, kites were launched one by one. Many of the high-tech kites soared quickly and smoothly into the sky, reaching great heights with ease. When it was Lily’s turn, she took a deep breath and ran forward, releasing the kite. At first, it seemed to be doing well, climbing steadily. However, suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew in an unexpected direction. Lily’s kite wobbled violently, and then, to her horror, the string snapped. The kite drifted away, carried by the wind.
Lily stood there, frozen in shock. All her hard work and dreams seemed to have crashed down in an instant. The other competitors continued to fly their kites, paying little attention to her misfortune. Just as she was about to give up and leave, an old man who had been watching the competition approached her. He had a kind smile on his weather-beaten face. “Don’t be too sad, young lady,” he said gently. “I’ve got an idea that might just save your day.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
The old man led Lily to his car, which was parked nearby.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the new kite in the air, Lily’s heart was filled with hope and determination.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The old man led Lily to his car, which was parked nearby. He opened the trunk and took out a neatly folded kite. “This was my granddaughter’s,” he explained, handing it to Lily. “She loved flying it, but she’s moved to college now. I think it would make her happy to see someone else enjoy it.” The kite was a vibrant blue with a dragon pattern. Lily noticed the careful stitching and the strong string, which gave her confidence. “Thank you so much,” she said, touched by his kindness. The old man smiled and replied, “Go on, give it a try.”
With the new kite in the air, Lily’s heart was filled with hope and determination. She ran gently, feeling the wind catch the dragon’s wings. Lily heard cheers from the crowd, including Jake, who shouted, “Wow, that’s amazing!” As she watched the kite soar, she realized that competitions weren’t just about winning. They were about the joy of creating, the courage to try, and the kindness of strangers who turned a bad day around. She had gained something more valuable: a beautiful memory and a new friend in the old man.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。初春晴朗多风日,Lily带着手工风筝参加地区风筝赛,却遭男孩嘲笑。比赛时风筝线断,她沮丧之际,一位老人送她风筝,让她重燃希望。

Last year I wasn’t sure what to get my mom for Christmas. Nothing I saw in the stores seemed good enough, and I was tired of getting her some general decorations every year. Christmas presents should be more meaningful, I thought. I wanted my present to come from the heart.
The idea came to me one day while I scrolled through Facebook. I saw a photo series where people used old pictures from their childhood and recreated them as adults: I loved the idea. That would be perfect for Mom. I looked through our old family photos and picked one from 16 years ago. It. was the day, we brought my little sister. Vivian home from the hospital. My siblings and I sat in front of the apartment building we used to live in. I was 10 and held Vivian in my arms. My sister Zoe, who was 8 at the time, had her arms around me and our 4-year-old brother, Thomas. Now I just needed to get them together for the remake.
I messaged them in our sibling group chat. “I love it!” Zoe replied. “Yes!” Thomas said. “We still have that blanket I’m wrapped in!” Vivian said. When I went back home for Christmas, our dad drove us to the old apartment, and we all got in position. I wore a red shirt and tilted my head like in the original photo. Thomas had to kneel down because now he was taller than us all. Zoe put her arms around us both. Vivian, wrapped in the same blanket, even managed to make a funny baby face. Click! We compared the photos and giggled like kids again.
We presented the photo to Mom on Christmas day. She loved it so much she framed it and put it on the shelf next/ to the original. This year, if you aren’t sure what to get your friends or family, try doing a recreated photo. It’s fun, cheap, and comes from the heart.
4. How did the author come up with the idea of recreating an old family photo?
A. By remembering a past experience. B. By seeing a similar idea on social media.
C. By discussing with his siblings. D. By looking through old family albums.
5. What can we infer from the process of recreating the photo?
A. The siblings had a hard time finding the old apartment.
B. The siblings all cooperated well and had a great time.
C. Vivian was not willing to make a funny baby face at first.
D. Thomas refused to slouch down because he didn’t like the idea.
6. What was the mother’s reaction to the recreated photo?
A. She was indifferent to the gift. B. She preferred the original photo.
C. She was disappointed with the quality. D. She was touched by the thoughtfulness.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. A happy family. B. An old family photo.
C. A gift from the heart. D. An initiative idea for Christmas.

In case you haven’t heard, the methane (甲烷) in cow burps (打嗝) is a major source of greenhouse gases. There may be a new way of addressing that problem, however, as a recent study shows that feeding cows clay (黏土) reduces their methane emissions by over 30%.
Cows produce methane as a byproduct of digesting their high-fiber diet, and burp, the gas out on a continuous basis. According to the United Nations Environment Programme, that burped-out methane-from cows and other livestock animals — makes up about 40% of total global methane emissions and can contribute approximately 25 times more to global warming than carbon dioxide.
In order to reduce the methane in cow burps, scientists have experimented with cattle feed supplements such as fish oil, seaweed, tropical leaves, and even baby kangaroo poop. Now, halloysite clay is showing promising results.
In a pilot study conducted by Dr. Bhaba Biswas and colleagues at Australia’s University of Newcastle, it was found that adding a highly-processed form of the natural clay to regular cattle feed reduced the animals’ methane emissions by more than 30% over a 24-hour period.
According to Biswas, the clay limits the activity of gut microbes (肠胃微生物) which produce the methane. The material appears to be harmless to the cattle—after all, they regularly take in soil when farming — and in fact could even have health benefits such as reduced gut acidity.

Signing your kids up for soccer in the fall and lacrosse in the spring may do more for them than build social skills or turn them into athletes. A study by researchers at Michigan State University shows that playing sports can also lead to improved academic performance, particularly for college students.
The study found that playing sports in college improved the grade point averages (GPA) of students and increased the likelihood for them to return for another term.
The researchers did research on almost 1,800 freshmen at MSU. The students who played sports averaged a 3.25 GPA at the end of their first year, compared to a 3.07 GPA for freshmen who didn’t play sports.
The findings also showed that playing sports was linked to lower odds of students dropping or failing classes their first year. In fact, those who played sports were 40% more likely to return for their sophomore year, and 2.5 times more likely to come back to the university overall.
“At the end of the year, students who played sports dropped or failed a total average of six credits compared to 7.7 credits among non-playing students,” says lead author Kerri Vasold in a university release. The nearly-two credit difference per year for those who play sports has a large effect on the time it takes to graduate.
As for the ideal number of sports and extracurricular activities that seemed to be most beneficial, researchers say the “sweet spot” ranges from four to seven activities over a school year.
“Don’t go crazy. Don’t join 20 teams,” says co-author Jim Pivarnik. “Grab some friends, find a moderate number of activities and get involved in something different. The four-to-seven range seems to be effective and is linked to a higher GPA.”
Adds Vasold: “There are so many different ways to participate. And the best part is you don’t have to be an all-star basketball player. You can still join a team. It’s an inclusive-environment-and helps students do better and creates a new home.”
12. What do Michigan State University researchers find about playing sports?
A. It helps college students build social skills.
B. It is linked to college students’ better grade.
C. It can turn kids into professional athletes!
D. It has no effect on academic performance.
13. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. By analyzing the data of the freshmen at MSU.
B. By comparing the GPAs of athletes and students.
C. By following students, throughout their college years.
D. By interviewing students about their sports experiences.
14. What does the underlined phrase “sweet spot” in paragraph 6 refer to?
A. The best way to balance sports and academic study.
B. The ideal place for students to play sports on campus.
C. The most suitable time to play sports during a school year.
D. The perfect number of sports and extracurricular activities.
15. Which of the following best describes the overall tone of the passage?
A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Encouraging. D. Skeptical.

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。
It was a sunny yet windy day in early spring. Lily, an enthusiastic high-school senior, had been looking forward to this day for weeks. She was finally going to participate in the regional kite-flying competition, an event she had dreamed of joining since she was a little girl.
With her handmade kite in hand, Lily arrived at the competition site full of excitement. The large field was already crowded with participants of all ages, each holding their uniquely designed kites. Lily’s kite was a beautiful creation. She had spent countless hours painting it with delicate floral patterns, using the finest watercolors she could find. As she assembled her kite, she noticed a group of boys nearby snickering. One of them, a tall boy named Jake, loudly commented, “Look at that kite! It’s so old-fashioned. There’s no way it can compete with our high-tech ones.” Lily felt a pang of self-doubt but quickly brushed it off, reminding herself that the beauty of her kite lay in its handmade charm.
As the competition began, kites were launched one by one. Many of the high-tech kites soared quickly and smoothly into the sky, reaching great heights with ease. When it was Lily’s turn, she took a deep breath and ran forward, releasing the kite. At first, it seemed to be doing well, climbing steadily. However, suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew in an unexpected direction. Lily’s kite wobbled violently, and then, to her horror, the string snapped. The kite drifted away, carried by the wind.
Lily stood there, frozen in shock. All her hard work and dreams seemed to have crashed down in an instant. The other competitors continued to fly their kites, paying little attention to her misfortune. Just as she was about to give up and leave, an old man who had been watching the competition approached her. He had a kind smile on his weather-beaten face. “Don’t be too sad, young lady,” he said gently. “I’ve got an idea that might just save your day.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
The old man led Lily to his car, which was parked nearby.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the new kite in the air, Lily’s heart was filled with hope and determination.
