anymore.

B.To make remarks on Beijing's unique scenes.
C.To chart the changes of Beijing's air quality.

Nowadays,children spend less time in the fresh air.Many of them are addicted to a screen either on
a computer or a TV-they seem to be living in a virtual world.They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK,from playgroups to the National Health Service,are
encouraging children to have some"wild time".They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching
TV or playing computer games for time playing outside.Activities such as building dens,climbing trees,
rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kid can do.Even if they live
in a city,they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from Mum and Dad.They need to be shown what to do and where
to go.Andy Simpson from National Health Service says,"We want parents to see what this magical
wonder product does for their kids'development,independence and creativity,by giving wild time a go."
So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now,it seems that going back to
basics and experiencing"nature's playground"is what modern children need.David Bond from Project
Wild Thing says,"We need to make more space for wild time in children's daily routine,freeing this
generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted."
This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe,like me,it's made you think about sticking on
your boots,getting outdoors and reliving your childhood.There's no age limit on enjoying yourself!
28.Which of the following activities is not encouraged for children?
A.Building dens.
B.Climbing trees.
C.Playing hide and seek.
D.Watching TV.
29.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.Adults value outdoor activities.
B.Modern children need wild time.
C.The present world is complicated.
D.This generation of kids has no freedom.
30.What does the last paragraph try to express?
A.People at any age can enjoy wild time.
B.It is out of date to go outdoors.
C.It is too late for adults to enjoy nature.
D.People like recalling the past.
31.What does the text primarily call for?
A.More space for children.
B.Benefits of wild time.
C.Wild time for children.
D.Adventures of children.

The summer reading season is here.Some people will opt for paperbacks because they're easy to
borrow and share.Others will go for e-readers.But which is the more environmentally sustainable option?
According to 2023 data from the literary industry research group Words Rated,when it comes to
pulp()and paper,print book publishing is the world's third-largest industrial greenhouse gas
producer,and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the United States to make paper for books.So
many publishers are switching to on-demand printing.For example,Chronicle Books,are reducing their
initial print runs to see how well the titles sell before they print more."We felt that it was better to have a
higher cost and have less waste,"said Chronic le Books president,Tyrrell Mahoney.
Publishers are also rethinking book design.It might be a surprise,but certain fonts (can be

It was an ordinary weekend.The supermarket was crowded with shoppers grabbing their weekly
groceries.I was no exception,purchasing fresh produce and a few comfor food items,and then I reached
the checkout line.As the cashier scanned my items and I reached for my wallet,my heart sank.It was
missing.No cash,no cards,just an empty pocket and a growing sense of panic.
“I'm so sor四y,”I stammered(结结巴巴地说),my face buming red as I began to gather my
groceries,ready to make my embarrassed retreat.

"Are you sure?"I asked,my voice filled with a mix of gratitude and disbelief.

"Anything,"I said,ready to do whatever it took to repay her kindness.
"Promise me you'll pay it forward,"she said,her gaze()meeting mine with a sincerity that

Months later,I found myself driving through a quiet countryside,the scenery passing by peacefully.

参考范文:
Dear Editor,
Recently our class has had a heated discussion about whether sea exploration should be carried out.
Some of the students subscribe to the view that sea needs to be explored fully.That's because it will
make it possible for people to discover new sources of food and energy.In addition,it might help improve
our understanding of the life on the earth.However,others are against it,because they believe it might
bring about marine pollution,which finally leads the ocean creatures to death.Worse still,it also might do
damage to the ecosystem.
Personally,sea exploration should be balanced with economic needs.Hopefully,as technology improves,
we may have more options for managing this balance.
Yours,
Li Hua

I slowed down and pulled over."Need a lift?"I asked,rolling down the window.Her face lit up with
relief and gratitude."Yes,please,"she said,climbing into my car.We chatted as we drove.She told me
that she had waited there for hours.She was about to give up when I stopped.And she told me her stories
of adventure and excitement.When she mentioned she was short on funds and needed to get home,I
knew what I had to do.
As we parted,.I handed her some cash and said,“For your bus ticket home..”“Ican't take this,”
she refused,her eyes wide with surprise."You can,"I insisted."And one day,when you can,pay it
forward."Then we parted.As I continued my drive,I was filled with a renewed sense of purpose and a
heart full of hope.I know I choose to pay it forward,not for recognition or reward,but because I believe
in the power of kindness to change lives,one small act at a time.

Dear Editor,
Recently our class has had a heated discussion about whether sea exploration should be carried out.
Some of the students subscribe to the view that sea needs to be explored fully.That's because it will
make it possible for people to discover new sources of food and energy.In addition,it might help improve
our understanding of the life on the earth.However,others are against it,because they believe it might
bring about marine pollution,which finally leads the ocean creatures to death.Worse still,it also might do
临渭区高二英语期末试题-答案-7-(共10页)
damage to the ecosystem.
Personally,sea exploration should be balanced with economic needs.Hopefully,as technology improves,
we may have more options for managing this balance.
Yours,
Li Hua

Once there was a pianist in a bar.People came just to hear him play.But one night,a lady was tired
of listening to the piano and asked him to sing a song.So he did.He had never sung in public before.Now
he was singing for the very first time!Nobody had expected he could sing so beautifully!All the people
present had a good time and the pianist was also very happy because he found that he could sing well.
He may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name pianist in a no-name bar.Now he found,by
accident,his ability to sing,so he went on working hard on singing.Later,the pianist became one of the
best-known singers in the US.His name was Nat King Cole.You,too,have skills and abilities that you
haven't found.You may not feel that your talent is great,but it may be better than you think.With hard
work,most skills can be improved.Besides,you may have no success at all if you do nothing about your
talent.
