They love traveling. Though they usually plan carefully, unexpected things still happen. Last summer, while flying from Vancouver to Beijing, they experienced an unforgettable journey. After passing through different security (安检) lines, the family cheerfully headed to their gate, discussing their first hotpot meal back home. Sitting down in the waiting area, Mrs. Johnson said, “Let’s get our jackets-the flight will be freezing!” She suddenly remembered their red suitcase. But when they looked around, the suitcase was gone. For a moment, they froze. Then, they started laughing. “We left it at security checkpoint! ” cried 12-year-old Tom. Rushing back, they found the airport workers smiling. After thanking them, they took the suitcase and hurried off, because their names were being called over the loudspeaker. On the plane, Mr. Johnson joked, “We should thank Mom! If we’d lost the suitcase, we’d just collect it next trip!” The family laughed again, turning worry into joy. Some called the Johnsons “careless”, but their relaxed attitude (态度) prevented blame (责备). Tom recalled learning chess with his dad years ago. Instead of complicated (复杂的) rules, his father taught him to stay calm. “If you keep worrying about doing everything perfectly, ” Dad had said, “one mistake will make you feel terrible. It’s OK to lose a game, but never let yourself give up.” By trusting each other and accepting imperfections, the Johnson family turned silly moments into shared jokes. The red suitcase became a symbol not of forgetfulness, but of their bond-a reminder that love and laughter matter more than ideal plans. Life’s journey isn’t about avoiding mistakes, but facing them with humor and unity. When we choose understanding over anger, ordinary moments become extraordinary memories. 31.

This exciting launch not only added the 22nd “family member” to China’s famous Long March rocket series but also marked the first mission at a brand-new launch site designed for commercial (商业的) space adventures. The Long March-12 lifted off from the Hainan International Commercial Launch Center, China’s first base built specially for private spare projects. Standing tall at 62.6 meters—almost as high as a 20-storey building—it’s now the second-longest rocket in China, just behind the Long March-5. What makes it unique? Its “wide body” design! With a diameter of 3.8 meters (most rockets are only 3.35 meters), it’s like the “big brother” of China’s rocket family. The extra space allows it to carry more fuel (燃料) and engines, making it super strong—it can lift 12 tons of cargo (货物), equal to about six small cars, into low-Earth orbit! Developed by Shanghai space scientists, this rocket is built for speed and efficiency. Its mission? To help China launch satellites faster and cheaper. On its first trip, it carried two experimental satellites, but future plans are even bigger. The Long March-12 will join other rockets to build a “space internet highway”—a network of over 14,000 satellites! This could bring internet to faraway villages and maybe even challenge SpaceX’s Starlink one day. Why does this matter? As China’s private space companies grow, rockets like the Long March-12 will make launches as common as airplane flights. Who knows? Soon, ordering a satellite launch might be as easy as booking a pizza! 36. Why is Hainan’s launch center special? A. It’s the oldest space base in China. B. It’s the highest rocket launch platform. C. It’s the first launch center for private space tasks. D. It’s the largest satellite testing center for business space. 37. How is the Long March-12 physically unique? A. It is 20 storeys tall. B. It has a “wide body” design. C. It can lift six cars. D. It gets into low-Earth orbit. 38. What is the future plan for the Long March-12 Rocket? A. To test new engine types. B. To replace Starlink soon. C. To build a satellite network. D. To launch faster and cheaper. 39. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 4? A. Pizza shops will help with satellite launches. B Ordering a satellite launch will be easy in the future. C. Designing a satellite will cost as much as buying a pizza. D. Launching a satellite will take the same time as getting a pizza. 40. What does the text mainly explain? A. How rockets launch safely. B. The history of private space companies. C. Why China develops satellite networks. D. China’s new achievements in space industry. 【答案】36. C 37. B 38. C 39. B 40.

In the past, extreme weather mostly led to terrible floods, although in the last ten years, wildfires have spread and received considerable attention. But only during the past two years have extreme temperatures drawn global attention. Heat waves, or extreme temperatures, are based on a country’s temperature profile (概述). What is considered a heat wave in Western countries is often below common summer temperature in most of the developing countries. Extreme heat waves therefore have a more serious influence on developing countries while most of the developed countries are in the temperate areas, whose weather is neither too hot nor too cold. However, as the world warms, even countries in the temperate areas such as Canada and the United Kingdom are facing extreme heat waves, and their high temperature records, set in the past, are falling. Take Canada for example. Between June 25 and July 1, 2021, temperatures in some areas of British Columbia reached 49. 6℃, higher than that in Kuwait or Dubai. China, too, is experiencing intense heat waves. The summer of 2022 became the hottest in the history of weather records since 1961. Even the Arctic (北极的) town of Verkhoyansk in Siberia, Russia, reached 38 ℃ in June 2020. No part of the world is free from extreme heat. There are many direct and indirect influences of heat waves. Many of them are known; others are not. And since elderly people are the weakest to heat waves, they need to be especially protected against high temperatures. Yet heat waves not only harm human health, they also create other serious social dangers. For example, they can reduce crop (农作物) output by 20 to 30 percent, if not altogether harm the crops, causing food price rise, which influences the poor the most. 41. How does the writer lead in the text? A. By listing facts. B. By listing numbers. C. By explaining reasons. D. By telling stories. 42. Who will be the most influenced under extreme heat waves? A. People in Western countries. B. People in Canada and Russia. C. People in the temperate areas. D. People in developing countries. 43. What does the underlined word “intense” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Strong. B. Strange. C. Weak. D. Common. 44. Why is the Arctic town of Verkhoyansk mentioned? A. To describe possible changes in temperate areas. B. To show the differences between different countries. C. To explain why high temperature records are falling. D. To prove every part of the world experiences heat waves. 45. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Powerful influence of heat waves. B. Serious heat waves around the world. C. The reasons of the global warming. D. The measures taken to prevent heat waves. 【答案】41. A 42. D 43. A 44. D 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了全球变暖导致的极端高温现象及其影响，包括对发展中国家和发达国家的不同影响，以及对人类健康和社会经济的危害。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Global warming is producing all kinds of extreme (极端的) weather around the world”以及后续列举的洪水、野火、极端高温等现象可知，作者是通过列举事实引入主题。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Extreme heat waves therefore have a more serious influence on developing countries”可知，发展中国家受极端高温影响最严重。故选D。 【43题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“China, too, is experiencing intense heat waves”及后文“the hottest in the history of weather records”可推知，“intense”意为“强烈的”，与“strong”同义。故选A。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据“No part of the world is free from extreme heat”及北极小镇Verkhoyansk的例子可知，提及该小镇是为了证明全球各地均受极端高温影响。故选D。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“There are many direct and indirect influences of heat waves”及后续对健康、农业、物价等影响的描述可知，本段主要讨论极端高温的多重影响。故选A。 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 March 21 has already gone by.

Peanuts grow underground. Around 40 peanuts grow on one plant. Special machines dig up the plants and lay them upside down on the ground. The peanuts stay in the sun until they are dry. Next, stems (茎) and rocks are removed. After the peanuts are cleaned, they are shelled (去壳) and roasted. Then, they are cooled. The cooled peanuts are rubbed (揉擦) gently to remove their skins. Finally, the peanuts are ground into tiny pieces. Sometimes, sugar, salt, and oil are added. Groundnut crop calendar for most of the United States 26. How many peanuts do two peanut plants grow? A.

A science magazine. B The Johnson family lives in Beijing. They love traveling. Though they usually plan carefully, unexpected things still happen. Last summer, while flying from Vancouver to Beijing, they experienced an unforgettable journey. After passing through different security (安检) lines, the family cheerfully headed to their gate, discussing their first hotpot meal back home. Sitting down in the waiting area, Mrs. Johnson said, “Let’s get our jackets-the flight will be freezing!” She suddenly remembered their red suitcase. But when they looked around, the suitcase was gone. For a moment, they froze. Then, they started laughing. “We left it at security checkpoint! ” cried 12-year-old Tom. Rushing back, they found the airport workers smiling. After thanking them, they took the suitcase and hurried off, because their names were being called over the loudspeaker. On the plane, Mr. Johnson joked, “We should thank Mom! If we’d lost the suitcase, we’d just collect it next trip!” The family laughed again, turning worry into joy. Some called the Johnsons “careless”, but their relaxed attitude (态度) prevented blame (责备). Tom recalled learning chess with his dad years ago. Instead of complicated (复杂的) rules, his father taught him to stay calm. “If you keep worrying about doing everything perfectly, ” Dad had said, “one mistake will make you feel terrible. It’s OK to lose a game, but never let yourself give up.” By trusting each other and accepting imperfections, the Johnson family turned silly moments into shared jokes. The red suitcase became a symbol not of forgetfulness, but of their bond-a reminder that love and laughter matter more than ideal plans. Life’s journey isn’t about avoiding mistakes, but facing them with humor and unity. When we choose understanding over anger, ordinary moments become extraordinary memories. 31. What was left by the family? A. Their hotpot meal. B. Their red suitcase. C. Their loudspeaker. D. Their chess. 32. Why did Mr. Johnson suggest “thanking Mom”? A. Mrs. Jonson made a good plan. B. Mrs. Johnson found the checkpoint first. C. Mrs. Johnson reminded them of jackets. D. Mrs. Johnson managed to call the airport workers. 33. What does the writer think of the Johnson family? A. Strict and serious. B. Relaxed and blame-free. C. Quiet and cool-headed. D. Careless and disorganized. 34. What did Tom’s father value most when teaching him chess? A. Winning every game. B. Avoiding mistakes. C. Staying calm when needed. D. Memorizing perfect rules. 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. The Lost Suitcase in Vancouver B. A Family’s Perfect Travel Plan C. Help Over Hurry: Ways to Avoid Mistakes D. Laughter Over Blame: A Journey of Trust C On a special day in late November 2024, China’s space program welcomed a powerful new member-the Long March-12 rocket! This exciting launch not only added the 22nd “family member” to China’s famous Long March rocket series but also marked the first mission at a brand-new launch site designed for commercial (商业的) space adventures. The Long March-12 lifted off from the Hainan International Commercial Launch Center, China’s first base built specially for private spare projects. Standing tall at 62.6 meters—almost as high as a 20-storey building—it’s now the second-longest rocket in China, just behind the Long March-5. What makes it unique? Its “wide body” design! With a diameter of 3.8 meters (most rockets are only 3.35 meters), it’s like the “big brother” of China’s rocket family. The extra space allows it to carry more fuel (燃料) and engines, making it super strong—it can lift 12 tons of cargo (货物), equal to about six small cars, into low-Earth orbit! Developed by Shanghai space scientists, this rocket is built for speed and efficiency. Its mission? To help China launch satellites faster and cheaper. On its first trip, it carried two experimental satellites, but future plans are even bigger. The Long March-12 will join other rockets to build a “space internet highway”—a network of over 14,000 satellites! This could bring internet to faraway villages and maybe even challenge SpaceX’s Starlink one day. Why does this matter? As China’s private space companies grow, rockets like the Long March-12 will make launches as common as airplane flights. Who knows? Soon, ordering a satellite launch might be as easy as booking a pizza! 36. Why is Hainan’s launch center special? A. It’s the oldest space base in China. B It’s the highest rocket launch platform. C. It’s the first launch center for private space tasks. D. It’s the largest satellite testing center for business space. 37. How is the Long March-12 physically unique? A. It is 20 storeys tall. B. It has a “wide body” design. C. It can lift six cars. D. It gets into low-Earth orbit. 38. What is the future plan for the Long March-12 Rocket? A. To test new engine types. B. To replace Starlink soon. C. To build a satellite network. D. To launch faster and cheaper. 39. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 4? A Pizza shops will help with satellite launches. B. Ordering a satellite launch will be easy in the future. C. Designing a satellite will cost as much as buying a pizza. D. Launching a satellite will take the same time as getting a pizza. 40. What does the text mainly explain? A. How rockets launch safely. B. The history of private space companies. C. Why China develops satellite networks. D. China’s new achievements in space industry. D Global warming is producing all kinds of extreme (极端的) weather around the world. In the past, extreme weather mostly led to terrible floods, although in the last ten years, wildfires have spread and received considerable attention. But only during the past two years have extreme temperatures drawn global attention. Heat waves, or extreme temperatures, are based on a country’s temperature profile (概述). What is considered a heat wave in Western countries is often below common summer temperature in most of the developing countries. Extreme heat waves therefore have a more serious influence on developing countries while most of the developed countries are in the temperate areas, whose weather is neither too hot nor too cold. However, as the world warms, even countries in the temperate areas such as Canada and the United Kingdom are facing extreme heat waves, and their high temperature records, set in the past, are falling. Take Canada for example. Between June 25 and July 1, 2021, temperatures in some areas of British Columbia reached 49. 6℃, higher than that in Kuwait or Dubai. China, too, is experiencing intense heat waves. The summer of 2022 became the hottest in the history of weather records since 1961. Even the Arctic (北极的) town of Verkhoyansk in Siberia, Russia, reached 38 ℃ in June 2020. No part of the world is free from extreme heat. There are many direct and indirect influences of heat waves. Many of them are known; others are not. And since elderly people are the weakest to heat waves, they need to be especially protected against high temperatures. Yet heat waves not only harm human health, they also create other serious social dangers. For example, they can reduce crop (农作物) output by 20 to 30 percent, if not altogether harm the crops, causing food price rise, which influences the poor the most. 41. How does the writer lead in the text? A By listing facts. B. By listing numbers. C. By explaining reasons. D. By telling stories. 42. Who will be the most influenced under extreme heat waves? A. People in Western countries. B. People in Canada and Russia. C. People in the temperate areas. D. People in developing countries. 43. What does the underlined word “intense” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Strong. B. Strange. C. Weak. D. Common. 44. Why is the Arctic town of Verkhoyansk mentioned? A. To describe possible changes in temperate areas. B. To show the differences between different countries. C. To explain why high temperature records are falling. D. To prove every part of the world experiences heat waves. 45. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Powerful influence of heat waves. B. Serious heat waves around the world. C. The reasons of the global warming. D. The measures taken to prevent heat waves. 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 March 21 has already gone by.
