His love for football and art began at a young age. When he was four, he saw the floodlights of Park Avenue ground for the first time from the window of a bus going up Canterbury Avenue on a visit to his grandparents. The moment remained with him and by the time he was 10, it had developed into a firm belief that one day he would paint football grounds! However, Paul's journey to becoming a full-time artist took time. For many years,he worked as a builder, developed a construction business, and raised two daughters with his wife,Lindsay. While construction work provided a good living, Paul always felt that it was not his true calling. In his early forties, after receiving a box of acrylic paints from his parents, Paul picked up his brushes again, rediscovering his love for art. His breakthrough came in 2013, when he sold a painting of the old Vetch Field ground to a Swansea City supporter at the League Cup Final at Wembley. From that moment, Paul's career as a football artist took off. He has since been commissioned（委托）many times to paint Park Avenue, the club his grandfather supported. Park Avenue holds a special place in his heart， and he has painted it many times， capturing（刻画）its unique design and history. Paul's work is not just aboutfootball; it's about capturing the spirit and history of the game. His paintings celebrate special moments, like matches and famous victories, bringing the excitement of football to life. It's his love that has led him to travel the length and breadth of the country to explore grounds-and his paintings now hang in countless homes and club boardrooms. 24. What excited Paul's interest in art when he was young? A.A flood of football fans. B.The scene he saw on a bus. C.A narrow crowded street. D.His grandparents' support. 25.Which of the following best describes Paul's journey to painting? A.Successful. B.Unpleasant. C.Dangerous. D.Expectable. 26.What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refer to? A.Wembley. B.Vetch Field. C.Park Avenue. D.Swansea City. 27.What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A.To recommend a football club. B.To reflect on his love for football. C. To remember a football player. D. To introduce a fine football artist. C For years, Canada has been one of the few wealthy countries without a national school food program. Instead, we have small,local programs that depend on piecemeal funding,and volunteers. That＇s set to change. This past April， the government of Canada dedicated（拨付）$1 billion over five years to create the National School Food Program, which will offer meals to hundreds of thousands of kids annually starting this year. Poor diet is a widespread issue in Canada， affecting children from all income（收入）levels. Many children eat too many processed foods like granola bars and candy, while not getting enough fruits and vegetables. Even my kids don't eat well during the school day. Providing healthy meals at school, where children spend much of their time, is a great way to improve their diets and reduce health problems. Students who use these programs get better grades and don't miss school as much. For excample, in one study of a morning meal program in the Toronto District School Board, students who ate a morning meal most days in a school week did better in areas like independent academic work, class participation and problem-solving. Right now, school food programs are often aimed at needy kids. Some students who could benefit from school food programs may not participate because they don't want to be seen as poor. But the study from the U. S. tells us that when all kids are invited to participate, the shame related to the program vanishes. I expect we will gradually see universal programs like that roll out. Under a national policy, school food programs will continue to vary. Different places have different needs. The government could host a meeting of international experts to help us learn from the best school food programs around the world. If we're going to put the money in, we need to makse sure that the programs are the best they can be. 28.What is the problem facing Canada according to the text? A. There are sudden rises in food prices. B.Many families can't afford housing costs. C. There are no food programs for all students. D.Teachers don't support school food programs. 【高一期末考试·英语 第3页（共8页）】 【高一期末考试·英语 第4页（共8页）】 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 29.Why does the author mention the study in paragraph 3?题内 A. To show the benefits of school food programs. B. To explain why children must eat a tasty meal. C. To stress the students' ability to solve problems. D.To honour these respected teachers in the school. 30.What does the underlined word "vanishes" in paragraph 4 mean? A.Happens. B.Recovers. C.Advances. D.Disappears. 31.What is the author's suggestion for the government about the programs? A.Manage them based on the same needs. B.Seek professional advice for the planning. C. Encourage parents to put the money in. D.Host a work conference on a daily basis. D The American burying beetle（葬甲）has seen its population notably fall due to habitat（栖息地）loss and a drop in wildlife species. Once widespread in 35 U. S. states and three Canadian provinces, it is now found only in small pockets in 10 states. However, recent data show a positive change. In southwestern Nebraska's Loess Canyons, the beetle population has increased over the last decade. This is the first regional growth since the beetle was listed as endangered in 1989. Researchers report this finding in the January Biological Conservation. Caleb Roberts, a research ecologist, calls this success the best result in protecting nature. "The increase in beetle numbers is a hopeful sign for the health of the surrounding grassland ecosystems," he says. American burying beetles clean up dead bodies， which helps recycle nutrients（营养物）in the environment. The beetles need carcasses that weigh between 100 to 200 grams, roughly the size of a small rabbit, to feed themselves and their young. However, the number of suitable carcasses has dropped as many species that once provided food, such as prairie dogs and passenger pigeons,have disappeared. From 2007 to 2019, researchers studied beetle populations in the Loess Canyons by using dead laboratory rats as bait. The data showed an increase of 17% in beetle numbers, from 168to 196 beetles across all traps. The beetles strongly prefer Nebraska's native grasslands,especially when these areas are free from invasive trees like eastern red cedar. If grasslands cover about 75% of the area, beetle populations are expected to double. However, when tree cover increases, beetle numbers drop a lot. The positive trend in the Loess Canyons is due to efforts by over 100 private landowners who have worked to restore their grasslands by reintroducing fire to control cedar tree growth. This has helped reduce tree cover and created a more diverse habitat, which supports more wildlife, including the beetles. 32.What can be learned about American burying beetles? A. They used to have a large population. B.They caused damage to wildlife habitat. C. They are the best hunter in North America. D.They are found only in Canadian provinces. 33.What can we infer from paragraph 4? A.Dead bodies harm natural environment. B.The growth of grassland lies in the beetle. C. It's good practice to get close to nature. D.The beetles play a key role in ecosystems. 34.American burying beetles prefer to live A.in the rainforest B.in the grassland C.on the farmland D.on the leafy island 35.Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. The Past Years See a Change in Weather B.A Farm Was Built for the Burying Beetle C.A Threatened Insect Is Making a Comeback D. The Loess Canyons Are Home to All Beetles 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 All kinds of pollution and waste are doing harm to the earth. 36.
