It also warns that the way humans use land is causing the Earth to warm faster and could harm food production. About 30 percent of the Earth’s surface is land, but the land is warming two times faster than the planet as a whole. While greenhouse gases are causing global (全球的) warming, land has been less talked about as a part of climate change. In-fact, the way we use land is both part of the problem and part of the solution. Climate change has caused serious harm to the land. It has caused deserts to spread and made forests more easily harmed by fire, disease and shortage of water. Meanwhile, farming and forestry together account for about 23 percent of the greenhouse gases. Scientists have long believed that one of the few good things about higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) is that plants grow well in such conditions. But many studies show that the high levels of carbon dioxide reduce protein (蛋白质) and nutrients (营养物) in many crops. For example, they cause wheat to have 6 to 13 percent less protein, 4 to 7 percent less zinc (Zn) and 8 percent less iron (Fe). The report also warns of more harmful effects of climate change on the global food supply (供应). It predicts a rise of 7.6 percent in cereal (谷物) prices by 2050. Higher food prices will lead to an increased risk of hunger. The report suggests that we can change the way we farm and eat to slow down the temperature rise. It notes that better, smarter farming methods can reduce carbon levels by up to 18 percent of present emission (排放) levels by 2050. Carbon emissions can be reduced further if we eat less red meat and more plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables and seeds. That will also free up several million square kilometres of land by 2050. Reducing food waste is also an important part of fighting climate change. The report notes that almost one-third of food produced is lost or wasted. Reducing food waste would reduce emissions and help feed more people. However, the report warns that “the window for making these changes is closing fast.” 27. According to the report, what is one cause of climate change? A. Forest fires. B. Improper land use. C. Low rainfalls. D. Large areas of deserts. 28. What does the example of wheat in Paragraph 4 show? A. The reason for the increase of food prices. B. The disadvantage of wheat as a cereal crop. C. The effect of climate change on food quality. D. The importance of wheat in crop production. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A Smarter farming will increase carbon emissions. B. Worldwide hunger is mainly caused by food waste. C. Cereal production mostly depends on farming methods. D. Eating less red meat can slow down the temperature rise. 【答案】27. B 28. C 29. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了人类活动导致的气候变化正在加速土地退化，并对粮食安全和生态系统造成严重影响，但通过改进土地利用方式、调整饮食结构和减少浪费，可以缓解这一问题。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It also warns that the way humans use land is causing the Earth to warm faster and could harm food production.”可知，人类对土地的使用方式是导致地球变暖更快的原因之一，也就是气候变化的一个原因是土地使用不当。故选B。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据“many studies show that the high levels of carbon dioxide reduce protein (蛋白质) and nutrients (营养物) in many crops. For example, they cause wheat to have 6 to 13 percent less protein, 4 to 7 percent less zinc (Zn) and 8 percent less iron (Fe).”可知，以小麦为例是为了说明二氧化碳含量高会降低许多作物的蛋白质和营养物质，即展示了气候变化对食物质量的影响。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Carbon emissions can be reduced further if we eat less red meat and more plant - based foods like fruits, vegetables and seeds.”可知，少吃红肉可以进一步减少碳排放，从而减缓气温上升。故选D。 D Does this sound familiar? A workmate asks, “What are you up to this weekend?” You tell her you’re not sure. She replies with her own exciting plan. “I’m going to my lake house to have a big party.” I call this “boomerasking”. Like a boomerang, boomeraskers ask a question, let their partner answer and then immediately bring the focus of the conversation back to themselves. They try to both show interest in their partner and disclose something about themselves, but they fail to achieve either goal. We know it is good to show interest in our partners during conversations in many ways—by asking questions, supporting a different opinion, or saying something that relates to what the other person just said. However, self-centredness is tricky to outrun. As humans, we mostly think about our own viewpoint. Between 40% and 60% of what people say in conversations is about themselves—their feelings, opinions, and personal experiences. On social media, it’s even worse—80% of communication is self-related. For many people, self-disclosure simply feels great. A willingness to open up to others is an important sign of liking and closeness: it shows that you trust someone to know things about you. It’s also the primary way people shape how others think of them. By carefully choosing what to share, we try to seem kind, smart, confident and interesting in our partners’ eyes. And we show off or complain, hoping to receive admiration or understanding. Still, we recognise that social rules discourage overly self-centred behaviour and try to deal with this problem with some indirect habits. People who want others to admire them might pretend (假装) to complain while actually showing off, like saying, “I’m tired from all the interviews about my new book.” Others wanting to seem higher position might give mixed praise, like “Your ideas were pretty good, for a beginner.” But compared with these ways we try to hide our self-centredness, boomerasking may be worse because it reduces the benefits of asking questions. Asking heartfelt questions, listening to others’ answers and following up on those answers may be the easiest and most powerful pathway to shared understanding and interpersonal connection. Boomerasking breaks the magic. Failing to follow up on your partner’s answer, and answering the question yourself instead, makes others feel like you don’t care about them. So don’t boomerask! When another person shares their views, focus on them. We should all aim to be more interested in our partners before we go back to proving how interesting we are ourselves. 30. What will boomeraskers do after they ask a question about your hobbies? A. Stay quiet and give you space to talk freely. B. Stop you when you talk and discuss a different topic. C. Listen to your answer carefully and ask follow-up questions. D. Pay little attention to your answer and talk about their hobbies. 31. The words “tricky to outrun” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “________”. A. hard to shake off B. unusual to see C. pleasant to accept D. simple to deal with 32. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. boomerasking balances caring about others and opening up B. self-centredness is unwelcome even when expressed indirectly C. mixed praise is a straight and honest way to express admiration D. it’s wise to shape others’ opinions by sharing a lot about yourself 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To guide people in building interesting conversations. B. To prove the effect of self-centredness in conversations. C. To encourage better listening and replying in conversations. D. To explore the reasons for people’s showing off in conversations. 【答案】30. D 31. A 32. B 33. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了“boomerang”这种交流现象，并在文中列举了例子解释其含义。呼吁人们通过真诚倾听和回应建立更好的人际连接。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Like a boomerang, boomeraskers ask a question, let their partner answer and then immediately bring the focus of the conversation back to themselves.”可知，当被问起爱好时，他们不会关注你的回答，而是转而谈论自己的爱好。故选D。 【31题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“As humans, we mostly think about our own viewpoint. Between 40% and 60% of what people say in conversations is about themselves”可知，解释人类大多关注自身观点，对话中40%-60% 的内容与自身相关。由此推断，“tricky to outrun”意为“难以摆脱”，与“hard to shake off难以摆脱”语义一致。故选A。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段指出，人们通过“假装抱怨式炫耀” 或 “混合式赞美” 等间接方式掩盖自我中心，但作者认为“boomerasking 比这些方式更糟糕”，暗示任何形式的自我中心行为都不受欢迎，故选B。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文通过分析“boomerasking”现象，揭示了对话中自我中心的问题，呼吁人们通过真诚倾听和回应建立更好的人际连接。故选C。 第二部分 本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达（第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Growing Awareness Andrea Carter was about 10 years old when she decided to spend her life growing food. Her family travelled each summer to rural (乡村的) Vermont, where she spent many hours working in a neighbour’s fields. “We weeded (除草) and picked tomatoes and green beans,” she recalled. “Looking back, it was a gift to experience farming and to see where food comes from.” When Carter grew up, she followed her interest in plants by studying at the University of Arizona in Tucson, which is in the Sonoran Desert. Today, Carter is a crop scientist focusing on plants that grow in deserts. She works at a nonprofit (非营利性的) organization called Native Seeds in Tucson. The organization aims to protect seeds (种子) that can survive in the dry climates and to share knowledge about how to grow them. These seeds, including corns, beans, and other crops, have been grown by native farmers for centuries. But they’re at risk of disappearing if not grown properly or not grown at all. To prevent that from happening, the organization works with farmers to grow these crops, harvest their seeds, and then store them in a seed bank for future use. As the director of Native Seeds, Carter says strong communication skills are very important. She leads workshops about dryland farming in the American Southwest and educates others about the importance of protecting local seeds. One of Carter’s favorite parts of her job is visıting farms “I enjoy communicating with farmers, who are interested in growing and care for their community’ and the Earth,” she says. Carter and her husband also run their vegetable farm near Tucson. She says being a farmer herself helps her to form stronger connections with other farmers and understand the challenges they face. “I am better at my job because I am a farmer too,” she says. Carter advises young people interested in crop science to visit or volunteer at the nearest garden or farm to help decide if this is the right career (职业) path for them. “Find out if you really like being with plants and being outside and growing things,” she says. 34. What did Carter spend many hours doing in Vermont each summer? ________________________________________________ 35. What does the organization Native Seeds aim to do? ________________________________________________ 36. How does being a farmer help Carter with her job? ________________________________________________ 37. What can you learn from Carter’s story to help you choose your future career? Please list two points and explain them with information from the passage. ________________________________________________ 【答案】34. Working in a neighbour’s fields. 35. It aims to protect seeds that can survive in the dry climates and to share knowledge about how to grow them. 36. It helps to form stronger connections with other farmers and understand the challenges they face. 37. We can learn two points from Carter’s story. First, we should try and experience the career we are interested in, just like Carter advised young people interested in crop science to visit or volunteer at the nearest garden or farm.

Then he walked to his younger brother Jason. “Boys, please take more water. Two bottles each isn’t going to be enough. Remember, I used to volunteer to help hikers here, and the temperatures by late morning in July…” Mark cut in saying, “Dad, we’ll be fine. We hiked in Big Bend when we lived here, remember? We’ll only be gone for a few hours, and I have my cell phone.” He sounded confident. But David Saldivar was worried. Five years ago, he hiked in Big Bend National Park with his sons. Today he had to call in to a meeting at work, so they were on their own. David watched his sons head out towards the canyon trail (小路), which offered beautiful views of the mountains, but was short of shade (阴凉处). The brothers made good progress in their first few hours of hiking. The air was cool and Mark managed to take some amazing wildlife pictures. In early afternoon, the brothers were down to a bottle of water each, but Mark was sure it was enough for the time left. They continued along the trail. The sun beat down harder with every step they took. The boys stopped to drink water. Jason quickly emptied his bottle but he was still thirsty. Mark handed Jason his bottle. At that point, Mark realized he did not know as much about hiking in the canyon as he had thought he did. He decided it was time to call their dad. The boys sat under a rock ledge (突出的岩石) and waited for help. Within an hour, their dad appeared with more water. “Are you OK?” their dad asked. “We’re just fine,” Mark replied, smiling weakly. As they slowly made their way back Mark said, “You were right, Dad. We didn’t pay as much attention to what you said as we should have! I’ll be sure to take all your hiking advice in the future.” His dad replied with a smile, “Son, I’m just glad you learned a lesson. Hiking is fun, but you always need to be prepared.” 24. How did Mark feel about hiking in Big Bend before they started? A. Bored. B. Confident. C. Surprised. D. Afraid. 25. What problem did the brothers meet in the afternoon? A. They felt hot and thirsty. B. They got lost in the canyon. C Their cell phone didn’t work. D. Taking photos wasted their time 26. Mark learned from the experience that it is important ________. A. to go hiking with his parents B. to be very careful while hiking C. to choose the right time for hiking D. to get fully prepared before hiking C A United Nations scientific report states that human-caused climate change is greatly reducing land quality worldwide. It also warns that the way humans use land is causing the Earth to warm faster and could harm food production. About 30 percent of the Earth’s surface is land, but the land is warming two times faster than the planet as a whole. While greenhouse gases are causing global (全球的) warming, land has been less talked about as a part of climate change. In-fact, the way we use land is both part of the problem and part of the solution. Climate change has caused serious harm to the land. It has caused deserts to spread and made forests more easily harmed by fire, disease and shortage of water. Meanwhile, farming and forestry together account for about 23 percent of the greenhouse gases. Scientists have long believed that one of the few good things about higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) is that plants grow well in such conditions. But many studies show that the high levels of carbon dioxide reduce protein (蛋白质) and nutrients (营养物) in many crops. For example, they cause wheat to have 6 to 13 percent less protein, 4 to 7 percent less zinc (Zn) and 8 percent less iron (Fe). The report also warns of more harmful effects of climate change on the global food supply (供应). It predicts a rise of 7.6 percent in cereal (谷物) prices by 2050. Higher food prices will lead to an increased risk of hunger. The report suggests that we can change the way we farm and eat to slow down the temperature rise. It notes that better, smarter farming methods can reduce carbon levels by up to 18 percent of present emission (排放) levels by 2050. Carbon emissions can be reduced further if we eat less red meat and more plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables and seeds. That will also free up several million square kilometres of land by 2050. Reducing food waste is also an important part of fighting climate change. The report notes that almost one-third of food produced is lost or wasted. Reducing food waste would reduce emissions and help feed more people. However, the report warns that “the window for making these changes is closing fast.” 27. According to the report, what is one cause of climate change? A. Forest fires. B. Improper land use. C. Low rainfalls. D. Large areas of deserts. 28. What does the example of wheat in Paragraph 4 show? A. The reason for the increase of food prices. B. The disadvantage of wheat as a cereal crop. C. The effect of climate change on food quality. D. The importance of wheat in crop production. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. Smarter farming will increase carbon emissions. B. Worldwide hunger is mainly caused by food waste. C. Cereal production mostly depends on farming methods. D. Eating less red meat can slow down the temperature rise. D Does this sound familiar? A workmate asks, “What are you up to this weekend?” You tell her you’re not sure. She replies with her own exciting plan. “I’m going to my lake house to have a big party.” I call this “boomerasking”. Like a boomerang, boomeraskers ask a question, let their partner answer and then immediately bring the focus of the conversation back to themselves. They try to both show interest in their partner and disclose something about themselves, but they fail to achieve either goal. We know it is good to show interest in our partners during conversations in many ways—by asking questions, supporting a different opinion, or saying something that relates to what the other person just said. However, self-centredness is tricky to outrun. As humans, we mostly think about our own viewpoint. Between 40% and 60% of what people say in conversations is about themselves—their feelings, opinions, and personal experiences. On social media, it’s even worse—80% of communication is self-related. For many people, self-disclosure simply feels great. A willingness to open up to others is an important sign of liking and closeness: it shows that you trust someone to know things about you. It’s also the primary way people shape how others think of them. By carefully choosing what to share, we try to seem kind, smart, confident and interesting in our partners’ eyes. And we show off or complain, hoping to receive admiration or understanding. Still, we recognise that social rules discourage overly self-centred behaviour and try to deal with this problem with some indirect habits. People who want others to admire them might pretend (假装) to complain while actually showing off, like saying, “I’m tired from all the interviews about my new book.” Others wanting to seem higher position might give mixed praise, like “Your ideas were pretty good, for a beginner.” But compared with these ways we try to hide our self-centredness, boomerasking may be worse because it reduces the benefits of asking questions. Asking heartfelt questions, listening to others’ answers and following up on those answers may be the easiest and most powerful pathway to shared understanding and interpersonal connection. Boomerasking breaks the magic. Failing to follow up on your partner’s answer, and answering the question yourself instead, makes others feel like you don’t care about them. So don’t boomerask! When another person shares their views, focus on them. We should all aim to be more interested in our partners before we go back to proving how interesting we are ourselves. 30. What will boomeraskers do after they ask a question about your hobbies? A. Stay quiet and give you space to talk freely. B. Stop you when you talk and discuss a different topic. C. Listen to your answer carefully and ask follow-up questions. D. Pay little attention to your answer and talk about their hobbies. 31. The words “tricky to outrun” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “________”. A. hard to shake off B. unusual to see C. pleasant to accept D. simple to deal with 32. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. boomerasking balances caring about others and opening up B. self-centredness is unwelcome even when expressed indirectly C. mixed praise is a straight and honest way to express admiration D. it’s wise to shape others’ opinions by sharing a lot about yourself 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To guide people in building interesting conversations. B To prove the effect of self-centredness in conversations. C. To encourage better listening and replying in conversations. D. To explore the reasons for people’s showing off in conversations. 第二部分 本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达（第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Growing Awareness Andrea Carter was about 10 years old when she decided to spend her life growing food. Her family travelled each summer to rural (乡村的) Vermont, where she spent many hours working in a neighbour’s fields. “We weeded (除草) and picked tomatoes and green beans,” she recalled. “Looking back, it was a gift to experience farming and to see where food comes from.” When Carter grew up, she followed her interest in plants by studying at the University of Arizona in Tucson, which is in the Sonoran Desert. Today, Carter is a crop scientist focusing on plants that grow in deserts. She works at a nonprofit (非营利性的) organization called Native Seeds in Tucson. The organization aims to protect seeds (种子) that can survive in the dry climates and to share knowledge about how to grow them. These seeds, including corns, beans, and other crops, have been grown by native farmers for centuries. But they’re at risk of disappearing if not grown properly or not grown at all. To prevent that from happening, the organization works with farmers to grow these crops, harvest their seeds, and then store them in a seed bank for future use. As the director of Native Seeds, Carter says strong communication skills are very important. She leads workshops about dryland farming in the American Southwest and educates others about the importance of protecting local seeds. One of Carter’s favorite parts of her job is visıting farms “I enjoy communicating with farmers, who are interested in growing and care for their community’ and the Earth,” she says. Carter and her husband also run their vegetable farm near Tucson. She says being a farmer herself helps her to form stronger connections with other farmers and understand the challenges they face. “I am better at my job because I am a farmer too,” she says. Carter advises young people interested in crop science to visit or volunteer at the nearest garden or farm to help decide if this is the right career (职业) path for them. “Find out if you really like being with plants and being outside and growing things,” she says. 34. What did Carter spend many hours doing in Vermont each summer? ________________________________________________ 35. What does the organization Native Seeds aim to do? ________________________________________________ 36. How does being a farmer help Carter with her job? ________________________________________________ 37. What can you learn from Carter’s story to help you choose your future career? Please list two points and explain them with information from the passage. ________________________________________________ 五、文段表达（10分） 38.从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据所给的中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的英语文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出真实的校名和姓名。 题目① 38. 假设你是李华，是学校学生会主席。来自英国的师生即将结束在你校的交流活动，学校将为他们举办欢送会（a farewell party）。请你给带队教师Chris写一封邮件，邀请他和交流生参加欢送会。请在邮件中告诉他欢送会的时间、地点、具体活动，并建议他和交流生可以做什么准备。 提示词语：hall, speech, video, perform, take photos 提示问题: ·When and where will the farewell party be held? ·What activities do you plan for the party? ·What do you think they can prepare for it?
