【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了金门国家休闲区(GGNRA)。
1.考查非谓语动词。句意:金门国家休闲区(Golden Gate National Recreation Area,简称GGNRA)成立于1972年,旨在将“公园带给人民”,其近76,000英亩的土地和水域从金门大桥北侧延伸至马林县的托马莱斯湾(Tomales Bay),南侧则延伸至圣马特奥县。空处需填非谓语动词作状语,GGNRA和establish为逻辑动宾关系,需用过去分词形式,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Established。
2.考查介词。句意同上。stretch to为固定搭配,意为“延伸至……”。故填to。
3.考查非谓语动词。句意:这些土地是美国最大的海岸保护区之一,每年吸引1600万游客,使金门国家休闲区成为国家公园管理局下辖游客量最高的景区之一。空处需填非谓语动词作状语,make与逻辑主语These lands之间是主动关系,且表示自然而然的结果,因此用现在分词making。故填making。
4.考查副词。句意同上。修饰动词visited,需用副词highly作状语。故填highly。
5.考查动词时态。句意:在过去的四十年里,公众对阿尔卡特拉斯岛(Alcatraz Island)的兴趣持续增长。根据时间状语“Over the last forty years”可知,此处为现在完成时,主语为public interest,助动词用has。故填has continued。

8.考查名词。句意:海鸟的数量不断增多,自然学家们仔细记录着长达8个月的筑巢季节中产下的鸟蛋数量。此处in greater numbers是固定短语,表示“更大数量地”,因此需要用名词复数形式numbers。故填numbers。
9.考查定语从句。句意:这些工作大部分都由热心奉献的阿尔卡特拉斯“公园志愿者”(VIPs)完成,他们带领游客参观、进行鸟类普查、帮助恢复长期被忽视的花园,并维护岛上的历史建筑,不过,还有更多工作需要完成,公园管理局一直在寻找更多的志愿者和捐赠者。空处引导定语从句,先行词“Volunteers In Parks” (VIPs),指人,关系词指代先行词在定语从句中作主语,需用关系代词who/that引导。故填who/that。
10.考查连词。句意同上。lead guided walks,carry out bird census,help restore long-neglected gardens和preserve historic structures around the Island是并列的谓语动词短语,表示VIPs所做的多项工作,因此用连词and连接。故填and。
四、阅读理解
(24-25高二下·江苏连云港·期末)In 1945, scientist Maisie Carr stood a fence around 5 hectares of peatland on Victoria’s Bogong High Plains.
That fence would form the first of Maisie’s Plots, two sites where things were watched. They are still used by scientists today and have recently been added to the Victorian Heritage Register. It’s one of Australia’s longest-running ecological experiments (生态实验), and it began with a true pioneer who had to learn to ride a horse to carry out her work.
Born in 1912 in Footscray, Melbourne, Maisie showed her scientific ability as a student and was awarded scholarships to Melbourne High School and the University of Melbourne. In 1941 she was employed by the university to research soil erosion (土壤侵蚀) in Victoria’s High Country.
She set up Maisie’s Plots — one at Rocky Valley and one at Pretty Valley — to see how cattle influenced the plant life on peatland and grassland. At each site, Maisie fenced off one area to keep cattle out, and marked another nearby area. The fenced and unfenced areas were regularly checked for types and amounts of plants, to assess the influence of cattle. This led to stricter controls on cattle eating in the area, and finally it was cancelled altogether.
Dr Manifold, Maisie’s nephew, said Maisie’s many letters showed her ability to adapt to a new and challenging environment. “She made many cattlemen friends, but some cattlemen were concerned that the agreements that allow them to use the High Plains land were at risk because of her, so there were disagreements too, which she managed quite well, I think.”
John Morgan, from La Trobe University, has been watching over Maisie’s Plots since 1989. He said Maisie’s experiment showed what would later happen when cattle were not allowed to eat the plants on the High Plains after the 2003 bush fires.
The next generation of scientists have continued to watch over the sites’ recovery since the cattle were taken away. And they do it using the same method Maisie used back in the 1940s, to make sure the data is comparable. “No one thought 75 years ago we’d still be doing this,” Dr Morgan said. “Generations of students and researchers have been educated at Maisie’s Plots.”
1.Why did Maisie set up the fence?
A.To raise animals. B.To do her research.
C.To learn horse riding. D.To divide the locals’ fields.
2.What did Maisie do on the two sites of Maisie’s Plots?
A.She planted several types of grass. B.She kept animals away from them.
C.She tried to prevent water and soil loss. D.She examined the effects of cattle on them.
3.What did Dr Manifold say about Maisie?
A.She met with some troubles. B.She suffered from homesickness.
C.She couldn’t get on with the locals. D.She couldn’t adapt to new environments.
4.What does Dr Morgan think of Maisie’s Plots?
A.They hold great cultural value. B.They should be protected and spread.

(24-25高二下·江苏连云港·期末)In 1945, scientist Maisie Carr stood a fence around 5 hectares of peatland on Victoria’s Bogong High Plains.
That fence would form the first of Maisie’s Plots, two sites where things were watched. They are still used by scientists today and have recently been added to the Victorian Heritage Register. It’s one of Australia’s longest-running ecological experiments (生态实验), and it began with a true pioneer who had to learn to ride a horse to carry out her work.
Born in 1912 in Footscray, Melbourne, Maisie showed her scientific ability as a student and was awarded scholarships to Melbourne High School and the University of Melbourne. In 1941 she was employed by the university to research soil erosion (土壤侵蚀) in Victoria’s High Country.
She set up Maisie’s Plots — one at Rocky Valley and one at Pretty Valley — to see how cattle influenced the plant life on peatland and grassland. At each site, Maisie fenced off one area to keep cattle out, and marked another nearby area. The fenced and unfenced areas were regularly checked for types and amounts of plants, to assess the influence of cattle. This led to stricter controls on cattle eating in the area, and finally it was cancelled altogether.
Dr Manifold, Maisie’s nephew, said Maisie’s many letters showed her ability to adapt to a new and challenging environment. “She made many cattlemen friends, but some cattlemen were concerned that the agreements that allow them to use the High Plains land were at risk because of her, so there were disagreements too, which she managed quite well, I think.”
John Morgan, from La Trobe University, has been watching over Maisie’s Plots since 1989. He said Maisie’s experiment showed what would later happen when cattle were not allowed to eat the plants on the High Plains after the 2003 bush fires.
The next generation of scientists have continued to watch over the sites’ recovery since the cattle were taken away. And they do it using the same method Maisie used back in the 1940s, to make sure the data is comparable. “No one thought 75 years ago we’d still be doing this,” Dr Morgan said. “Generations of students and researchers have been educated at Maisie’s Plots.”
1.Why did Maisie set up the fence?
A.To raise animals. B.To do her research.
C.To learn horse riding. D.To divide the locals’ fields.
2.What did Maisie do on the two sites of Maisie’s Plots?
A.She planted several types of grass. B.She kept animals away from them.
C.She tried to prevent water and soil loss. D.She examined the effects of cattle on them.
3.What did Dr Manifold say about Maisie?
A.She met with some troubles. B.She suffered from homesickness.
C.She couldn’t get on with the locals. D.She couldn’t adapt to new environments.
4.What does Dr Morgan think of Maisie’s Plots?
A.They hold great cultural value. B.They should be protected and spread.
C.They serve as models for scientists today. D.They contribute greatly to wildfire prevention.

In Glasgow, Thomson 2 the first physics laboratory in Britain. He was a pioneer in many different 3 , particularly electromagnetism (电磁学) and thermodynamics (热力学). 4 Faraday (法拉第), he was responsible for the introduction of the 5 of an electromagnetic field where Thomson developed the work of the 6 of the subject, Nicolas Carnot and James Joule. One of the most 7 results of his work was his idea of an absolute zero of temperature — the scale based on this is named 8 him.
Throughout his work Thomson’s main goal was the practical use of science. He achieved 9 through his work on submarine telegraphy, a major practical problem of the day. He was 10 as a scientific adviser in the laying of the Atlantic telegraph cables in 1857 — 1858 and 1865 — 1866,for which he was knighted in 1866. His 11 in marine issues also inspired him to develop a mariners’ compass and 12 a tide machine and depth-measuring equipment. He invented many electrical instruments and his house in Glasgow was the first to be 13 by electric light.
Thomson was raised to the noblemen with the 14 of Baron Kelvin of Largs in 1892. The Kelvin was a small river that flowed near Glasgow University and he was president of the royal Society from 1890 to 1895. He died on 17 December, 1907, in Ayrshire, Scotland and was 15 in Westminster Abbey.
