My excitement, though, was soon cut short when my professor asked me to write a research paper on the project. My body tensed. Writing was the last thing I wanted to do; it’s one reason why I pursued science in the first place. I had hated writing since I was a little boy. But I couldn’t avoid it: writing classes were required in high school. For hours, I stared at blank pages, trying to turn my disorganised thoughts into fluent sentences. My teachers would return my papers littered with red, showing my paragraphs were out of order. I was frustrated to no end. How could I know what was good if there was no objectively right answer? Maybe I wasn’t cut out for writing. I studied engineering in college. A few years later, I joined a research lab. The professor assigned me an initial project to improve the efficiency of an inductor (电路感应器). I spent weeks setting up a test for a new design. When I got the results, though, the numbers weren’t good. I kept trying new designs, using the results to brainstorm ideas with a team of researchers. Finally, after dozens of designs, we had one that could work. I was overjoyed — until my professor told me to write that research paper. In panic, I asked a graduate student in my lab for help. I carefully wrote an outline. But when I asked him for feedback, I soon found the paper full of red marks. Before I could quit in defeat, though, the graduate student explained, “Red doesn’t mean you’re a bad writer. Writing isn’t a one-and-done thing. It requires revising your work, often several times.” Suddenly it occurred to me, “Hadn’t I done the same thing when I was designing my research project?” I kept improving my outline, eventually turning it into sentences and paragraphs, guided by feedback from others. Finally, I made it, and surprisingly, I was having fun. From then on, writing became one of my favourite parts of research, and it still is today. It’s a future I never could have imagined during my early struggles with writing classes.But I came around. 24. What was the author’s initial reaction when asked to write a research paper? A. He felt excited and motivated. B. He was nervous and reluctant. C. He decided to change his research topic. D. He immediately sought help from classmates. 25. What do we know about the author’s final research design from paragraph 3? A. It’s hard-earned. B. It’s well-known. C. It’s poorly-made. D. It’s independently-finished. 26. Which of the following word can replace the underlined phrase “cut out”? A. Grateful. B. Born. C. Responsible. D. Famous. 27. What did the author learn from the graduate student’s words? A. A good beginning is half done. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. A bad workman always blames his tools. D. Trial and error opens the door to progress. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者从最初对写作的抵触和恐惧，到通过设计研究项目的过程领悟到写作与设计的相似性，并最终爱上写作的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“My excitement, though, was soon cut short when my professor asked me to write a research paper on the project. My body tensed. Writing was the last thing I wanted to do; it’s one reason why I pursued science in the first place. (然而，当我的教授让我写一篇关于这个项目的研究论文时，我的兴奋感很快就消失了。我的身体紧张起来。写作是我最不想做的事情；这也是我一开始追求科学的原因之一)”可知，当作者被要求写研究论文时，他感到紧张且不情愿。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“I kept trying new designs, using the results to brainstorm ideas with a team of researchers. Finally, after dozens of designs, we had one that could work. (我不断尝试新的设计，利用结果与一组研究人员进行头脑风暴。最后，经过几十次设计，我们找到了一个可行的方案)”可知，作者最终的研究设计是经过多次尝试和努力才得到的，因此是来之不易的。故选A项。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“I had hated writing since I was a little boy. (我从小就讨厌写作)”以及“How could I know what was good if there was no objectively right answer? Maybe I wasn’t cut out for writing. (如果没有客观正确的答案，我怎么知道什么是好的？也许我不cut out写作)”可知，作者从小就讨厌写作，且认为写作没有客观正确的答案，因此怀疑自己是否适合写作。由此可推知，“cut out”在此处意为“适合，天生具有……的才能”，与“Born (天生适合)”意思相近。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Before I could quit in defeat, though, the graduate student explained, “Red doesn’t mean you’re a bad writer. Writing isn’t a one-and-done thing. It requires revising your work, often several times.” Suddenly it occurred to me, “Hadn’t I done the same thing when I was designing my research project?” (然而，在我认输放弃之前，这位研究生解释说：“红色并不意味着你是个糟糕的作家。写作不是一次就能完成的事情。它需要多次修改你的作品。”我突然想到，“我在设计研究项目时不是也做了同样的事情吗？”)”可知，研究生的话让作者意识到写作和设计研究项目一样，都需要经过多次尝试和修改才能取得进步。由此可推知，作者从研究生的话中学到了“试错打开进步之门”的道理。故选D项。 C Imagine you are playing in a tennis match, and your performance will determine your team’s success. Your heart races and your skin is damp with sweat — all common signs of anxiety. However, the human body’s consistent response to anxiety actually masks two different psychological phenomena. The first — “growth anxiety” — occurs in response to challenges that are uncomfortable but manageable. The second — “toxic anxiety” — arises from situations that are beyond one’s ability to cope with. Toxic anxiety can be harmful to both body and mind, while growth anxiety can promote health and resilience, much in the way that exercise can make us fitter. In general, one’s performance under pressure follows an inverted-U curve (倒“U”曲线). As stress goes up, performance rises to a peak, and then drops off. This relationship, called the Yerkes-Dodson Law, was first described in 1908. Since then, dozens of studies have shown that there is an optimum level of stress that can produce the best performance, which is the sweet spot of anxiety. Growth anxiety can improve resilience in both mind and body. That’s likely because sudden anxiety leads to a short-term increase in two stress hormones (激素): cortisol (皮质醇) and norepinephrine (去甲肾上腺素). Cortisol prompts the body to release glucose (葡萄糖) to fuel the body and boost immune function. Additionally, brief exposure to cortisol can enhance brain’s capabilities in memory and learning. Meanwhile, norepinephrine increases your heart rate and blood pressure, preparing you for fight or flight, and helps you stay focused. Although a racing heart is uncomfortable at the moment, it can be beneficial as long as it doesn’t last too long. Everyone has a different sensitivity to stress. The same challenge could be terrifying for one person but exciting for another. But regardless of your stress tolerance, even small actions — like getting sufficient sleep and exercise — can help prevent you from sliding down the inverted-U curve. We shouldn’t fear growth anxiety any more than we do the muscle ache from a healthy workout. Both can be uncomfortable but make us stronger in the long run. 28. What can we know about “growth anxiety” from the passage? A. It can do harm to our body and mind. B. It can promote resilience only in mind. C. It occurs when we face controllable challenges. D. It arises when we can't deal with some situations. 29. According to the Yerkes-Dodson Law, what happens to performance as stress increases? A. Performance decreases steadily. B. Performance remains unchanged. C Performance improves continuously. D. Performance first rises to a peak and then declines. 30. How does cortisol help the body during growth anxiety? A. It slows the heart rate. B. It reduces blood pressure. C. It makes the body release glucose for energy. D. It makes the body feel relaxed and sleepy. 31. What suggestion does the text give to manage stress effectively? A. Tolerating the stress. B. Ignoring physical signs of anxiety. C. Getting enough sleep and exercise. D. Avoiding all challenging situations. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了成长焦虑和压力对人的影响及应对建议。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The first — “growth anxiety” — occurs in response to challenges that are uncomfortable but manageable.（第一种——“成长焦虑”——出现在应对令人不适但可管理的挑战时)”可知，“成长焦虑”发生在我们面对可控的挑战时。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“As stress goes up, performance rises to a peak, and then drops off. This relationship, called the Yerkes-Dodson Law, was first described in 1908.(随着压力的增加，表现会达到顶峰，然后下降。这种关系被称为耶克斯-多德森定律，最早是在1908年提出的)”可知，根据耶克斯-多德森定律，随着压力的增加，表现先上升到顶峰，然后下降。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Cortisol prompts the body to release glucose (葡萄糖) to fuel the body and boost immune function.(皮质醇促使身体释放葡萄糖为身体提供能量并增强免疫功能)”可知，皮质醇在成长焦虑期间通过促使身体释放葡萄糖来提供能量从而帮助身体。故选C。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But regardless of your stress tolerance, even small actions — like getting sufficient sleep and exercise — can help prevent you from sliding down the inverted-U curve.(但无论你对压力的承受能力如何，即使是像保证充足的睡眠和锻炼这样的小行动，也能帮助你防止沿着倒U型曲线下滑)”可知，文本给出的有效管理压力的建议是保证充足的睡眠和锻炼。故选C。 D Painting rooftops white or covering them with a reflective coating is the most effective method of keeping the air temperature down in a city like London during a heatwave. These "cool roofs” should perform better than solar panels, green roofs or adding more trees at ground level. Oscar Brousse at University College London and his colleagues ran climate simulations (模拟) to see how London's temperature during the two hottest days of summer in 2018 would have changed if the city had made widespread use of cooling measures, from cool roofs to air conditioning, along with solar panels, which have a cooling effect. Temperatures that summer peaked at 35.6℃. Cool roofs outperformed all the other interventions, the team found, lowering average outdoor temperatures in the city over the two-day period by 1.2℃, and by as much as 2℃ in certain locations with roofs painted white. By comparison, additional tree cover only curbed air temperatures by about 0.3℃, while solar panels cut them by 0.5℃. The study also found that widespread use of air conditioning might keep internal temperatures cool, but would boost outdoor air temperatures by up to 1℃ in parts of central London. “For London, what worked the most for reducing outdoor temperatures at a pedestrian level was the cool roofs,” says Brousse. Although the study uses only two days of data for the simulations, Brousse says it is broadly in line with similar published research. Placing reflective coatings or lightening roof surfaces across London would be a relatively easy and low-cost climate adaptation, he says. “I see barely any reason not to start doing it wisely.” There are reasons beyond cooling to apply other technologies too, though, he says. Trees and green roofs can boost biodiversity and resident well-being, for example, while solar panels provide clean power. A 2023 report by the Greater London Authority suggested that cool roofs may become an increasing policy focus for city officials as summer temperatures rise because of climate change. “With temperatures in London projected to increase, and with more occurrences of heatwaves, reflective roofs are likely to be a key component of climate adaptation strategy,” the report says. 32. Which is the best way to cool the temperature in the city during the hottest days? A. Cool roofs. B. Air conditioning. C. Solar panels. D. More trees. 33. What does the underlined word “curb” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Add. B. Decrease. C. Increase. D. Remove. 34. What is the feature of cool roofs? A. They are cost-efficient. B. They can boost biodiversity. C. They can produce clean energy. D. They can completely lower the temperatures. 35. Which word can best describe the future of cool roofs in London? A. Uncertain. B. Limited. C. Promising. D. Hopeless. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了凉爽屋顶是城市降温最有效方法及相关研究和前景。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Painting rooftops white or covering them with a reflective coating is the most effective method of keeping the air temperature down in a city like London during a heatwave.(在热浪期间，将屋顶涂成白色或用反光涂层覆盖屋顶是降低伦敦等城市气温的最有效方法)”以及第三段中“Cool roofs outperformed all the other interventions, the team found, lowering average outdoor temperatures in the city over the two-day period by 1.2℃, and by as much as 2℃ in certain locations with roofs painted white.(研究团队发现，冷却屋顶的表现优于所有其他干预措施，在为期两天的监测期内，该市平均室外气温降低了1.2℃，而在一些屋顶被漆成白色的地方，气温降幅更是高达2℃)”可知，在热浪期间，冷却屋顶是给城市降温的最佳方式。故选A。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Cool roofs outperformed all the other interventions, the team found, lowering average outdoor temperatures in the city over the two-day period by 1.2℃, and by as much as 2℃ in certain locations with roofs painted white. By comparison, additional tree cover only curbed air temperatures by about 0.3℃.(研究小组发现，冷却屋顶的表现优于所有其他干预措施，在两天的时间里，该市平均室外温度降低了1.2℃，而在一些屋顶被漆成白色的地方，室外温度降低了2℃。相比之下，额外的树木覆盖仅使气温curbed约0.3℃)”可知，冷却屋顶降温效果更好，此处是将冷却屋顶和增加树木覆盖的降温效果进行对比，由此可推测出，增加树木覆盖只能使气温“降低”约0.3℃，curbed意为“降低”，与Decrease意思相近。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Placing reflective coatings or lightening roof surfaces across London would be a relatively easy and low-cost climate adaptation, he says.(他说，在整个伦敦放置反光涂层或减轻屋顶表面将是一种相对简单且低成本的气候适应方式)”可知，冷却屋顶的特点是成本效益高。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““With temperatures in London projected to increase, and with more occurrences of heatwaves, reflective roofs are likely to be a key component of climate adaptation strategy,” the report says.(该报告称：“随着伦敦气温预计将上升，且热浪天气愈发频繁，反光屋顶很可能成为气候适应战略的关键组成部分。”)”可知，随着伦敦气温预计上升，热浪发生频率增加，反光屋顶很可能成为气候适应战略的关键组成部分，由此可推测出，冷却屋顶在伦敦的未来是“有希望的”。故选C。 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。 When it comes to warm-weather activities good for your health, you probably think of walking, hiking or running. ____36____.

When she started dance classes last year, she didn’t know about the solo. She heard people talk about it but didn’t know what it was. The solo was a chance for all of the parents and grandparents to see the dance that students danced. It was held at the high school every year, and Sophie was going to dance on stage in front of everyone. She disliked the thought of that as it scared her, and she didn’t know how to deal with it. Yesterday she practiced her dance for the first time on stage. There were only a few moms watching, so it wasn’t too bad. But the thought of dancing in front of lots of people tonight was really scary. “Ready to go?” Mom asked. “Yes. I guess so,” answered Sophie. But Mom noticed the nervousness in Sophie’s voice and asked what was wrong. Sophie said, “I don’t know, not feeling good and kind of afraid.” Mom then sat on the edge of Sophie’s bed and reminded her of yesterday’s practice when she was in the front row and Sophie did just fine. Sophie worried that there would be so many people today. Mom told her that when she went on stage, she should look right where Mom was sitting yesterday as Mom would be in the same seat, and-it would be just like yesterday. Sophie nodded hesitantly, then got up and prepared to set off. Sophie thought about her mom’s words all the way to the high school. Mom was always right, but Sophie wasn’t sure about it this time. She still hated the thought of dancing in front of all those people. When it was her turn to dance, Sophie thought about what Mom had told her. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sophie ran happily to Mom in the hall of the school. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version When it was her turn to dance. Sophie thought about what Mom had told her. She took a deep breath, stepped onto the stage, and looked straight at the front row where Mom sat. As the music started, she blocked out the rest of the audience and focused only on that one spot. At first, her legs trembled a little, but as she moved to the rhythm, memories of yesterday’s smooth practice came back. Slowly, she relaxed and let the dance take over. By the end, she was completely lost in the joy of dancing. The applause that followed made her heart swell with pride. Sophie ran happily to Mom in the hall of the school. “Mom! I did it!” she shouted, jumping up and down with excitement. Mom opened her arms and gave her a big hug, saying, “I knew you could! You were amazing out there!” Sophie beamed and said, “It was all because of your advice. Looking at you made me feel like I was just dancing for one person, not the whole crowd.” Mom gently stroked her hair and replied, “You’ve just overcome your biggest fear, and I’m so proud of you.” Holding Mom’s hand tightly, Sophie couldn’t wait for the next dance performance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小女孩Sophie第一次要在很多人面前进行独舞表演，她非常紧张害怕，在妈妈的安慰和建议下，她鼓起勇气完成了表演并获得了成功的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句“当轮到她跳舞时，Sophie想起了妈妈告诉她的话。”可知，第一段可描写Sophie按照妈妈说的建议，把注意力集中在妈妈坐的位置，克服紧张和恐惧，顺利完成舞蹈表演的过程。 ②由第二段首句“Sophie高兴地跑到学校大厅里的妈妈的身边。”可知，第二段可描写Sophie兴奋地告诉妈妈自己成功了，妈妈给予她肯定和鼓励，两人之间温馨的互动以及Sophie对未来表演的期待。 2.续写线索： Sophie上台——想起妈妈的话——专注表演——克服恐惧——完成表演——跑向妈妈——分享喜悦——妈妈鼓励肯定——期待下次表演 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①深呼吸：take a deep breath/inhale deeply ②专注：focus on/concentrate on ③颤抖：tremble/shake ④沉浸在：be lost in/be absorbed in ⑤紧紧握住：hold tightly/grip firmly 情感类： ①紧张：nervousness/anxiety ②兴奋：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型 1] She took a deep breath, stepped onto the stage, and looked straight at the front row where Mom sat.（运用了where引导的定语从句） [高分句型 2] Holding Mom’s hand tightly, Sophie couldn’t wait for the next dance performance.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$雅安市2024至2025学年下期期末教学质量检测高二年级英语试题。第一部分听力做题时，先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的abc三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。Text one, I hope you will have fun had Alice is party tonight.

B When I got my first research project to work, I was so excited.Seeing research in action was enjoyable. My excitement, though, was soon cut short when my professor asked me to write a research paper on the project. My body tensed. Writing was the last thing I wanted to do; it’s one reason why I pursued science in the first place. I had hated writing since I was a little boy. But I couldn’t avoid it: writing classes were required in high school. For hours, I stared at blank pages, trying to turn my disorganised thoughts into fluent sentences. My teachers would return my papers littered with red, showing my paragraphs were out of order. I was frustrated to no end. How could I know what was good if there was no objectively right answer? Maybe I wasn’t cut out for writing. I studied engineering in college. A few years later, I joined a research lab. The professor assigned me an initial project to improve the efficiency of an inductor (电路感应器). I spent weeks setting up a test for a new design. When I got the results, though, the numbers weren’t good. I kept trying new designs, using the results to brainstorm ideas with a team of researchers. Finally, after dozens of designs, we had one that could work. I was overjoyed — until my professor told me to write that research paper. In panic, I asked a graduate student in my lab for help. I carefully wrote an outline. But when I asked him for feedback, I soon found the paper full of red marks. Before I could quit in defeat, though, the graduate student explained, “Red doesn’t mean you’re a bad writer. Writing isn’t a one-and-done thing. It requires revising your work, often several times.” Suddenly it occurred to me, “Hadn’t I done the same thing when I was designing my research project?” I kept improving my outline, eventually turning it into sentences and paragraphs, guided by feedback from others. Finally, I made it, and surprisingly, I was having fun. From then on, writing became one of my favourite parts of research, and it still is today. It’s a future I never could have imagined during my early struggles with writing classes.But I came around. 24. What was the author’s initial reaction when asked to write a research paper? A. He felt excited and motivated. B. He was nervous and reluctant. C. He decided to change his research topic. D He immediately sought help from classmates. 25. What do we know about the author’s final research design from paragraph 3? A. It’s hard-earned. B. It’s well-known. C. It’s poorly-made. D. It’s independently-finished. 26. Which of the following word can replace the underlined phrase “cut out”? A. Grateful. B. Born. C. Responsible. D. Famous. 27. What did the author learn from the graduate student’s words? A. A good beginning is half done. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. A bad workman always blames his tools. D. Trial and error opens the door to progress. C Imagine you are playing in a tennis match, and your performance will determine your team’s success. Your heart races and your skin is damp with sweat — all common signs of anxiety. However, the human body’s consistent response to anxiety actually masks two different psychological phenomena. The first — “growth anxiety” — occurs in response to challenges that are uncomfortable but manageable. The second — “toxic anxiety” — arises from situations that are beyond one’s ability to cope with. Toxic anxiety can be harmful to both body and mind, while growth anxiety can promote health and resilience, much in the way that exercise can make us fitter. In general, one’s performance under pressure follows an inverted-U curve (倒“U”曲线). As stress goes up, performance rises to a peak, and then drops off. This relationship, called the Yerkes-Dodson Law, was first described in 1908. Since then, dozens of studies have shown that there is an optimum level of stress that can produce the best performance, which is the sweet spot of anxiety. Growth anxiety can improve resilience in both mind and body. That’s likely because sudden anxiety leads to a short-term increase in two stress hormones (激素): cortisol (皮质醇) and norepinephrine (去甲肾上腺素). Cortisol prompts the body to release glucose (葡萄糖) to fuel the body and boost immune function. Additionally, brief exposure to cortisol can enhance brain’s capabilities in memory and learning. Meanwhile, norepinephrine increases your heart rate and blood pressure, preparing you for fight or flight, and helps you stay focused. Although a racing heart is uncomfortable at the moment, it can be beneficial as long as it doesn’t last too long. Everyone has a different sensitivity to stress. The same challenge could be terrifying for one person but exciting for another. But regardless of your stress tolerance, even small actions — like getting sufficient sleep and exercise — can help prevent you from sliding down the inverted-U curve. We shouldn’t fear growth anxiety any more than we do the muscle ache from a healthy workout. Both can be uncomfortable but make us stronger in the long run. 28. What can we know about “growth anxiety” from the passage? A. It can do harm to our body and mind. B. It can promote resilience only in mind. C. It occurs when we face controllable challenges. D. It arises when we can't deal with some situations. 29. According to the Yerkes-Dodson Law, what happens to performance as stress increases? A. Performance decreases steadily. B. Performance remains unchanged. C. Performance improves continuously. D. Performance first rises to a peak and then declines. 30. How does cortisol help the body during growth anxiety? A. It slows the heart rate. B. It reduces blood pressure. C. It makes the body release glucose for energy. D. It makes the body feel relaxed and sleepy. 31. What suggestion does the text give to manage stress effectively? A. Tolerating the stress. B. Ignoring physical signs of anxiety. C. Getting enough sleep and exercise. D. Avoiding all challenging situations. D Painting rooftops white or covering them with a reflective coating is the most effective method of keeping the air temperature down in a city like London during a heatwave. These "cool roofs” should perform better than solar panels, green roofs or adding more trees at ground level. Oscar Brousse at University College London and his colleagues ran climate simulations (模拟) to see how London's temperature during the two hottest days of summer in 2018 would have changed if the city had made widespread use of cooling measures, from cool roofs to air conditioning, along with solar panels, which have a cooling effect. Temperatures that summer peaked at 35.6℃. Cool roofs outperformed all the other interventions, the team found, lowering average outdoor temperatures in the city over the two-day period by 1.2℃, and by as much as 2℃ in certain locations with roofs painted white. By comparison, additional tree cover only curbed air temperatures by about 0.3℃, while solar panels cut them by 0.5℃. The study also found that widespread use of air conditioning might keep internal temperatures cool, but would boost outdoor air temperatures by up to 1℃ in parts of central London. “For London, what worked the most for reducing outdoor temperatures at a pedestrian level was the cool roofs,” says Brousse. Although the study uses only two days of data for the simulations, Brousse says it is broadly in line with similar published research. Placing reflective coatings or lightening roof surfaces across London would be a relatively easy and low-cost climate adaptation, he says. “I see barely any reason not to start doing it wisely.” There are reasons beyond cooling to apply other technologies too, though, he says. Trees and green roofs can boost biodiversity and resident well-being, for example, while solar panels provide clean power. A 2023 report by the Greater London Authority suggested that cool roofs may become an increasing policy focus for city officials as summer temperatures rise because of climate change. “With temperatures in London projected to increase, and with more occurrences of heatwaves, reflective roofs are likely to be a key component of climate adaptation strategy,” the report says. 32. Which is the best way to cool the temperature in the city during the hottest days? A. Cool roofs. B. Air conditioning. C. Solar panels. D. More trees. 33. What does the underlined word “curb” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Add. B. Decrease. C. Increase. D. Remove. 34. What is the feature of cool roofs? A. They are cost-efficient. B. They can boost biodiversity. C. They can produce clean energy. D. They can completely lower the temperatures. 35. Which word can best describe the future of cool roofs in London? A. Uncertain. B. Limited. C. Promising. D. Hopeless. 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。 When it comes to warm-weather activities good for your health, you probably think of walking, hiking or running. ____36____.

When she started dance classes last year, she didn’t know about the solo. She heard people talk about it but didn’t know what it was. The solo was a chance for all of the parents and grandparents to see the dance that students danced. It was held at the high school every year, and Sophie was going to dance on stage in front of everyone. She disliked the thought of that as it scared her, and she didn’t know how to deal with it. Yesterday she practiced her dance for the first time on stage. There were only a few moms watching, so it wasn’t too bad. But the thought of dancing in front of lots of people tonight was really scary. “Ready to go?” Mom asked. “Yes. I guess so,” answered Sophie. But Mom noticed the nervousness in Sophie’s voice and asked what was wrong. Sophie said, “I don’t know, not feeling good and kind of afraid.” Mom then sat on the edge of Sophie’s bed and reminded her of yesterday’s practice when she was in the front row and Sophie did just fine. Sophie worried that there would be so many people today. Mom told her that when she went on stage, she should look right where Mom was sitting yesterday as Mom would be in the same seat, and-it would be just like yesterday. Sophie nodded hesitantly, then got up and prepared to set off. Sophie thought about her mom’s words all the way to the high school. Mom was always right, but Sophie wasn’t sure about it this time. She still hated the thought of dancing in front of all those people. When it was her turn to dance, Sophie thought about what Mom had told her. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sophie ran happily to Mom in the hall of the school. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
