In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let's say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately: is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods?
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide(CO2)from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the “secondary footprint” group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances(设备)that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
4. What is the text mainly about?
A. What appliances to buy to save energy.
B. What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C. How to identify different carbon footprints.
D. How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
5. What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint?
A. It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B. It is made when we are buying the products.
C. It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D. It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
6. Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author?
A. Using second-hand textbooks. B. Using old and expensive cars.
C. Buying new but cheap clothes. D. Buying new wooden furniture.
7. "The footprint" underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in _________.
A. using the product B. recycling the product
C. making the product D. transporting the product
C
What is the place of art in a culture of inattention? Recent visitors to the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on. Much of that time, for some of them, is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background.
One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve travelled to see.In this society, experience becomes goods like any other. There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous paintings. Thus, leisure is considered as hard labour rather than relaxation.
In the rapidly developing society, what gets lost is the quality of looking.Consider an extreme example, the late philosopher Richard Wollheim. When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting. The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today, but it is still possible to organise. Even in the busiest museums there are many rooms and many pictures worth hours of thinking which the crowds largely ignore.
Marcel Proust, another lover of the Louvre, wrote: “It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon.” If any art remains worth seeing, it must lead us to such escapes. But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried, harried crowd won’t do that.
8. What do we know about recent visitors to the Louvre?
A. They are becoming impatient.
B. They are inattentive to others.
C. They focus wholly on themselves.
D. They lack thoughtful engagement with art.
9. Which statement might Richard Wollheim agree with?
A. People should ignore their misunderstanding of paintings.
B Modern society makes quality viewing impossible.
C. True appreciation of art takes time.
D. Labor and relaxation go hand in hand.
10. What role does art play in our life according to Marcel Proust?
A. Art is of help for us to accept ourselves better.
B. Art makes our life more colourful and meaningful.
C. Art allows us to know the world in the view of others.
D. Art pushes us away from ourselves and explores the moon.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Into art attentively.
B. Escape from ourselves.
C. Beyond art completely.
D. Go to the museums often.
D
Do I think the sky is falling? Sort of.
My husband and I were recently in Egypt, where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny princess self. So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family craziness...
The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt.
I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.
Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively (踌躇地) and picked up small items into a small cloth bag.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.”
I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow (麻雀) lying on its back with its feet in the air, eyes tightly shut with effort. The horse asks it what it’s doing.
“I’m trying to help hold back the darkness.”
The horse laughs loudly, “That is so funny. What do you weigh?”
And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.”
This is what older age means. We do what we can.
We continued our walk. Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip, but I caught her and we laughed. We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. We can take it, as long as we feel and give love, and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart. We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich.
12. What does the author say about her present life?
A. She leads a balanced life. B. She enjoys meeting old friends.
C. She is really into movies. D. She struggles with family crises.
13. Why did the author mention the sparrow?
A. To confirm Neshama’s fear. B. To offer her comfort.
C. To change Neshama’s mind. D. To show her approval.
14. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Physical weakness. B. The great lie.
C. The rowing machine. D. The broken soul.
15. What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author?
A. Achieving important life goals. B. Enjoying life as you can.
C. Living a life of love and service. D. Loving what is being done.

Jenson went to the swimming pool quite early this morning. He was hoping that there would be another swimmer, but not his annoying neighbor Mr. Jostice. However, when he got to the pool, Mr. Jostice was the only swimmer there, floating on his back in the deep end.
Jenson waved at him half-heartedly before diving in and doing a few freestyle laps. When he stopped, Mr. Jostice said, “Great job if you were doing the breaststroke (蛙泳). You have to keep your hands cupped the whole time for the freestyle stroke. And you’re not dropping your head enough to breathe properly. You should see how my grandson Little Swedan swims ...”
“Grrr ...!” Jenson thought. He dived underwater and swam away. After a few strokes, just out of curiosity, he cupped his hands the way Mr. Jostice had advised. His stroke did seem smoother. He tried lowering his head a bit, which seemed to make him faster.
He swam to the shallow end of the pool. Maybe having Mr. Jostice around wasn’t so bad. He wondered how Mr. Jostice knew so much about swimming techniques. He glanced at where he had been floating, but he was no longer there. Suddenly he noticed a large, bright mass on the bottom of the pool. He stared at it. Not it — him — Mr. Jostice. He wasn’t moving! “Oh no!” Jenson cried. Mr. Jostice looked like he was unconscious ... or worse!
“Help! Help! Someone is drowning!” Jenson yelled. He didn’t know whether anyone heard him. It was only a few minutes past six o’clock. Nobody seemed to be awake or outside.
He’d have to rescue Mr. Jostice himself. He dived under the water and swam toward him as fast as he could. But when he got closer to his still body, he wasn’t sure what to do. Mr. Jostice was so large. How could he possibly lift him? Jenson wrapped one arm around his neck, paddling up through the water and kicking with all his strength to the top.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He finally managed to push Mr. Jostice out of water.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mr. Jostice lay still, and Jenson kept pressing.

In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let's say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately: is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods?
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide(CO2)from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the “secondary footprint” group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances(设备)that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
4. What is the text mainly about?
A. What appliances to buy to save energy.
B. What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C. How to identify different carbon footprints.
D. How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
5. What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint?
A. It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B. It is made when we are buying the products.
C. It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D. It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
6. Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author?
A. Using second-hand textbooks. B. Using old and expensive cars.
C. Buying new but cheap clothes. D. Buying new wooden furniture.
7. "The footprint" underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in _________.
A. using the product B. recycling the product
C. making the product D. transporting the product
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者一直努力减少生活中的碳足迹,但是新型环保产品和使用过的传统生产的产品,哪一种更能减少碳足迹呢?作者通过研究和对比给我们找到了答案:他们各有千秋。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段中“Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices(幸运的是,现在更容易选择环保的生活方式)”以及困扰作者的一个问题“is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced ones?(新型环保产品,使用过的传统生产的产品,选择哪一种更好?) ”再根据第二段一整段的内容,作者通过研究得出答案,有些时候是新型环保产品好,有时候是另一种更好。文章接下来的段落就是分析了作者这个答案是怎样找到的。由此可知,文章主要是关于怎样选择更环保的生活方式的。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown.(第二种足迹是表示我们使用的产品在整个生命周期中间接排放的二氧化碳,这些是和他们的生产和排放有关的) ”可知,第二种碳足迹虽然不是我们直接产生的,但是也是我们使用的产品释放出来的,也是要归结到我们身上的。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the “secondary footprint” group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production.”可知,像盘子,衣服和家具这样物品是属于 “第二类型的足迹”,所以是越少越好,我们应该注重寻找用过的物品来避免额外的生产。二手书是属于和衣服等可以二次使用的物品,符合题意。故选A。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you. (主要的问题是这些投入在制造新产品时的能源以及这种额外的碳是否值得它到你手里以后,所产生的碳足迹) ”可知,footprint在其后定语从句the product will make once it gets to you充当make的宾语,意思是“这种碳足迹就是产品到你手里之后,你使用中所产生的”。由此推知,划线词组the footprint指的是“产品使用过程中产生的二氧化碳”。故选A。
C
What is the place of art in a culture of inattention? Recent visitors to the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on. Much of that time, for some of them, is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background.
One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve travelled to see.In this society, experience becomes goods like any other. There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous paintings. Thus, leisure is considered as hard labour rather than relaxation.
In the rapidly developing society, what gets lost is the quality of looking.Consider an extreme example, the late philosopher Richard Wollheim. When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting. The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today, but it is still possible to organise. Even in the busiest museums there are many rooms and many pictures worth hours of thinking which the crowds largely ignore.
Marcel Proust, another lover of the Louvre, wrote: “It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon.” If any art remains worth seeing, it must lead us to such escapes. But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried, harried crowd won’t do that.
8. What do we know about recent visitors to the Louvre?
A. They are becoming impatient.
B. They are inattentive to others.
C. They focus wholly on themselves.
D. They lack thoughtful engagement with art.
9. Which statement might Richard Wollheim agree with?
A. People should ignore their misunderstanding of paintings.
B. Modern society makes quality viewing impossible.
C. True appreciation of art takes time.
D. Labor and relaxation go hand in hand.
10. What role does art play in our life according to Marcel Proust?
A. Art is of help for us to accept ourselves better.
B. Art makes our life more colourful and meaningful.
C. Art allows us to know the world in the view of others.
D. Art pushes us away from ourselves and explores the moon.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Into art attentively.
B. Escape from ourselves.
C. Beyond art completely.
D. Go to the museums often.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章探讨注意力分散文化中艺术的地位,指出卢浮宫游客对艺术缺乏深入欣赏,而真正的艺术欣赏需要时间,能让我们了解他人眼中的世界。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Recent visitors to the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on. Much of that time, for some of them, is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background.( 最近参观卢浮宫的游客报告说,游客现在只能在蒙娜丽莎面前呆上一分钟,然后就会被要求离开。对他们中的一些人来说,大部分时间都花在拍照上,甚至不是为这幅画拍照,而是以这幅画为背景给自己拍照。)”以及第二段中“One view is that we have made tourism and gallery - going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve travelled to see.( 一种观点是,我们让旅游和参观画廊变得如此容易,以至于我们实际上不可能欣赏我们旅行所看到的东西。)”可知,最近去卢浮宫的游客在艺术品前停留时间短,很多时间用于自拍而非欣赏画作,缺乏对艺术深入、认真的欣赏。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting. The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself.( 当他参观卢浮宫时,他可以在一幅画前坐上四个小时之久。他说,第一个小时是消除错误印象所必需的。只有到那时,情况才开始显露出来。)”可知,Richard Wollheim 在卢浮宫一幅画前能坐上四个小时,他认为第一个小时用于去除错误印象,之后画才开始展现自身。这表明他认为真正欣赏艺术是需要时间的。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Marcel Proust 所说“It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon.( 只有通过艺术,我们才能逃离自我,才能知道另一个人是如何看待一个与我们自己不同的宇宙的,如果没有艺术,这个宇宙的风景就会像月球上的风景一样未知。)”可推知,通过艺术我们能跳出自我,了解他人眼中与我们不同的世界。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了现在人们参观博物馆等艺术场所时很匆忙,缺乏对艺术的认真欣赏,通过 Richard Wollheim 和 Marcel Proust 的例子强调真正欣赏艺术需要时间和专注。A 选项“专注于艺术”符合文章主旨,适合作为文章的标题。故选A项。
D
Do I think the sky is falling? Sort of.
My husband and I were recently in Egypt, where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny princess self. So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family craziness...
The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt.
I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.
Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively (踌躇地) and picked up small items into a small cloth bag.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.”
I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow (麻雀) lying on its back with its feet in the air, eyes tightly shut with effort. The horse asks it what it’s doing.
“I’m trying to help hold back the darkness.”
The horse laughs loudly, “That is so funny. What do you weigh?”
And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.”
This is what older age means. We do what we can.
We continued our walk. Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip, but I caught her and we laughed. We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. We can take it, as long as we feel and give love, and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart. We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich.
12. What does the author say about her present life?
A. She leads a balanced life. B. She enjoys meeting old friends.
C. She is really into movies. D. She struggles with family crises.
13. Why did the author mention the sparrow?
A. To confirm Neshama’s fear. B. To offer her comfort.
C. To change Neshama’s mind. D. To show her approval.
14. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Physical weakness. B. The great lie.
C. The rowing machine. D. The broken soul.
15. What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author?
A. Achieving important life goals. B. Enjoying life as you can.
C. Living a life of love and service. D. Loving what is being done.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要描述了作者和丈夫在埃及的经历、与老朋友在海滩上散步的情景,以及通过讲述马和麻雀的故事来表达自己对生活、友情、年龄和努力的看法,强调友情、爱和服务的力量超越物质追求。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.(随着年龄的电梯慢慢到来,我们能做些什么呢?主要的解决办法是每天出去走走,最好是和朋友一起。老朋友——哪怕只是想起他们——都是我的安慰。)”可知,作者烦恼的时候就想和朋友一起。由此可知,作者喜欢和老朋友见面。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段“And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.”(麻雀回答说:“做自己能做的事。”)”以及倒数第二段“This is what older age means. We do what we can.(这就是老年的含义。我们做我们能做的。)”可推测出,作者提到麻雀的故事是为了表达作者对于麻雀行为的赞同,作者认为我们做自己能做的就可以了。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上一句“We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. (上了年纪,我们的身体是如此脆弱,但友谊使它成为灵魂的划船机。)”可知,划线单词“it”所指的是上了年纪后,我们的身体会脆弱。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich.(到了一定的年龄,我们就会知道生活中最大的谎言——如果你做到了或实现了这个或那个,你就会快乐和富有。不。爱和服务使我们富有。)”可知,作者认为幸福不是通过实现重要的人生目标获得的,而是通过爱和服务的生活方式来获得的。故选C。

On June25, she became the first Chinese winner of the Young Inventors’ Prize,awarded by the European Patent Office (EPO) ____36____ developing a carbon capture system that enables shipowners to reduce emissions without replacing their existing ships.
“Ships produce about three percent of global CO2 emissions. There are a lot of opportunities ____37____ (stop) ships from pumping CO2. The sea environment is much harsher than on land. We have to consider a lot of factors, like the weather and salt corrosion. So our materials need to be anti-corrosion and we need to develop ____38____ (equip) that can be seat-fastened so ____39____ it doesn’t move around as the ship rolls in the waves,” she said.
Wen captures CO2 by turning it into ____40____ solid using calcium-based materials. The captured CO2, transformed into solid limestone pellets, can either ____41____ (regenerate) for further use or repurposed for industrial applications such as construction materials. “We want to precisely raise awareness about the importance of these brilliant minds, each of ____42____ is actually looking for solutions for a better, safer, smarter, and of course, more sustainable world,” EPO spokesperson Luis Berenguer told XinhuaWednesday.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了2014 年毕业于福州一中的Wen Roujia,因研发船舶碳捕获系统获欧洲专利局青年发明家奖,该奖项表彰为可持续未来努力的青年。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:6月25日,她成为第一位获得欧洲专利局(EPO)颁发的“青年发明家奖”的中国人,该奖项旨在表彰她开发的碳捕获系统,该系统使船主能够在不更换现有船舶的情况下减少排放。根据句意可知,这里表示因为开发了碳捕获系统而获奖,介词for 表示“因为”,符合语境。故填for。
【37题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:有很多机会可以阻止船舶排放二氧化碳。“opportunities to do sth.” 是固定搭配,表示“做某事的机会”,所以这里用 动词不定式to stop作后置定语修饰opportunities。故填to stop。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:所以我们的材料需要防腐蚀,我们需要开发可以固定在座位上的设备,这样当船在波浪中翻滚时,它就不会移动。develop 是动词,后面需要接名词作宾语,equip的名词形式是 equipment,且 equipment 是不可数名词。故填equipment。
【39题详解】
考查目的状语从句。句意:所以我们的材料需要防腐蚀,我们需要开发可以固定在座位上的设备,这样当船在波浪中翻滚时,它就不会移动。“so that” 是固定短语,引导目的状语从句,表示 “以便,为了”,这里表示设备要能固定在船上以便船在海浪中摇晃时它不会移动。故填that。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:Wen Roujia通过使用钙基材料将二氧化碳转化为固体来捕获二氧化碳。“turn...into a solid”表示“把…… 变成一种固体”,solid 是可数名词单数,这里表示泛指,solid为首音节辅音单单词,用不定冠词a。故填a。
【41题详解】
考查语态。句意:捕获的二氧化碳转化为固体石灰石颗粒,可以再生供进一步使用,也可以重新用于工业应用,如建筑材料。根据句意可知,The captured CO₂与 regenerate 之间是被动关系,can 是情态动词,其后接动词原形,所以用 be regenerated。故填be regenerated。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:EPO发言人Luis Berenguer周三在接受新华社采访时表示:“我们希望提高人们对这些杰出人才重要性的认识,他们每个人都在为一个更美好、更安全、更智能、当然也更可持续的世界寻找解决方案。”分析句子可知, 这里是“介词 + 关系代词”引导的定语从句,先行词是 brilliant minds,指人,在介词 of 后用 whom。故填whom。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:青年发明家奖由欧洲专利局于2022年推出,专为30岁或以下的个人量身定制。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,launch和逻辑主语the Young Inventors’ Prize为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式。故填Launched。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:青年发明家奖由欧洲专利局于2022年推出,专为30岁或以下的个人量身定制。根据句意可知,此处为连词or表示“或者”,满足句意要求。故填or。
【45题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:它突出了青年驱动的创新的变革力量,并表彰为更可持续的未来而努力的杰出青年。and 连接两个并列的谓语动词 highlights 和honors,主语 It 是第三人称单数,根据一般现在时的语法规则,honor 要用第三人称单数形式 honors。故填honors。

第四部分 写作 (满分25分)
56. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jenson went to the swimming pool quite early this morning. He was hoping that there would be another swimmer, but not his annoying neighbor Mr. Jostice. However, when he got to the pool, Mr. Jostice was the only swimmer there, floating on his back in the deep end.
Jenson waved at him half-heartedly before diving in and doing a few freestyle laps. When he stopped, Mr. Jostice said, “Great job if you were doing the breaststroke (蛙泳). You have to keep your hands cupped the whole time for the freestyle stroke. And you’re not dropping your head enough to breathe properly. You should see how my grandson Little Swedan swims ...”
“Grrr ...!” Jenson thought. He dived underwater and swam away. After a few strokes, just out of curiosity, he cupped his hands the way Mr. Jostice had advised. His stroke did seem smoother. He tried lowering his head a bit, which seemed to make him faster.
He swam to the shallow end of the pool. Maybe having Mr. Jostice around wasn’t so bad. He wondered how Mr. Jostice knew so much about swimming techniques. He glanced at where he had been floating, but he was no longer there. Suddenly he noticed a large, bright mass on the bottom of the pool. He stared at it. Not it — him — Mr. Jostice. He wasn’t moving! “Oh no!” Jenson cried. Mr. Jostice looked like he was unconscious ... or worse!
“Help! Help! Someone is drowning!” Jenson yelled. He didn’t know whether anyone heard him. It was only a few minutes past six o’clock. Nobody seemed to be awake or outside.
He’d have to rescue Mr. Jostice himself. He dived under the water and swam toward him as fast as he could. But when he got closer to his still body, he wasn’t sure what to do. Mr. Jostice was so large. How could he possibly lift him? Jenson wrapped one arm around his neck, paddling up through the water and kicking with all his strength to the top.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He finally managed to push Mr. Jostice out of water.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mr. Jostice lay still, and Jenson kept pressing.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
He finally managed to push Mr. Jostice out of water. The old man lay face up on the poolside, his chest not moving. Panic rushed through Jenson, but he remembered the first-aid lesson from school. He knelt beside Mr. Jostice, tilted his head back, and pinched his nose shut. Taking a deep breath, he covered Mr. Jostice’s mouth with his own and blew air into his lungs. He repeated this twice, then placed his hands on Mr. Jostice’s chest and pressed hard, counting rhythmically, “One, two, three…”
Mr. Jostice lay still, and Jenson kept pressing. His arms ached, but he didn’t stop. Suddenly, Mr. Jostice coughed violently, spitting out water. Jenson froze, then smiled with relief. “Are you okay?” he asked, patting the old man’s back. Mr. Jostice opened his eyes weakly. “Thanks, kid… You saved me,” he whispered. Just then, a lifeguard ran over. Jenson explained what happened, and Mr. Jostice squeezed his hand. “Guess I owe you a swimming lesson now,” he joked, making Jenson laugh.
