Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts (烟头) and plastic bags.
A group of European scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica (南极洲). Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.
However, in the end, human rubbish may only cause more damage to birds. The toxic (有毒的) chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.
To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap (捕捉) birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt.
Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. To help them, we can recycle, reduce and reuse the products we use every day. Don’t let our products find their way into the natural world.
43. What did European scientists find?
A. Some people help birds build their nests.
B. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.
C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica.
D. The rubbish is not helpful to birds at all.
44. What does the underlined word “damage” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. hurt B. attention C. sadness D. convenience
45. What are people advised to do according to the last paragraph?
A. To use more products. B. To help our bird friends.
C. To pollute the environment. D. To throw litter in nature.
46. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. The Good Influence of Rubbish on Birds.
B. The Bad Influence of Rubbish on Birds.
C. The Pollution Brought by Human Activities.
D. Human Rubbish—the New Nest Material for Birds.
D
A Long March 5 rocket took off from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan Province on May 3, 2024. After flying for about 37 minutes, it successfully placed the Chang’e 6 robotic lunar probe (月球探测器) into an Earth-moon transfer trajectory (转移轨道). Several days later, the probe was programmed to land on the moon’s far side and started its tasks, which would last about 53 days.
This is the world’s first try to bring samples (样本) from the moon’s far side. For China, it’s the second sample-return moon journey. Chang’e 5 successfully brought samples from the moon in the winter of 2020. Up to now, 10 moon sample-return tasks have been carried out by the United States, the former Soviet Union (前苏联) and China, but all these samples were collected from the moon’s near side.
The moon’s far side has always been a subject of scientific wonder because of its many mysteries. It’s facing away from Earth and it can never be seen from Earth. It was once called the “dark side of the moon” even though it receives just as much sunlight as the near side.
Chinese researchers have found that the soil on the far side is much thicker than that on the near side, but they haven’t found out the reason. Samples brought back by Chang’e 5 have helped scientists find that there were volcanic (火山的) activities on the near side around 2 billion years ago. Some scientists thought maybe volcanoes became inactive (不活跃的) on the far side about 4 billion years ago. Is it true? Samples from the far side helped them to know the answer.
“Comparing the make-up of the far side samples from Chang’e 6 with those collected from the near side will be of great scientific value to the international community,” said Martin Sweeting, a famous professor of space engineering.
47. When did Chang’e 6 begin to work on the moon?
A. On May 3 2024. B. Before flying for about 37 minutes.
C. In the winter of 2020. D. After landing on the moon’s far side.
48. How many times has China got samples from the moon’s near side?
A. Once. B. Twice. C. Five times. D. Ten times.
49. According to the passage, the moon’s far side ________.
A. receives less sunlight than the near side
B. has thicker soil compared with the near side
C. can be seen from Earth with powerful cameras
D. has more recent volcanic activities than the near side
50. What may Martin Sweeting think of the task of Chang’e 6?
A. It’s very difficult. B. It’s valuable for the world.
C. It’s a big step for humans. D. It’s useless for the world.
根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Every one of us has a chance to try new things. ____51____ The risk is that we will not be satisfied with our choice.
For example, we may try a food we have never had before. ____52____ It can be too sour, too salty or too spicy (辣的) . We may try a new style of music and get a headache. We may try a new sport like skating and end up falling down a lot. We may see a different kind of art and be completely disappointed. We may try to speak or write a different language and end up embarrassing ourselves.
It sounds risky (有风险的) to us. ____53____ For example, we can try a new food. And we fall in love with it finally. It can be sweet or tastes very good. We may try a new sport and fall down but we get back up and finally experience pleasure, even for a minute. We may see why people love that sport so much.
If we try a new kind of music, we may regret we didn’t find it sooner. ____54____ We can try to write or speak a different language, and we may be a little embarrassed at first, but we know that the only way to improve is to make mistakes and keep on trying.
____55____ Then you will have chances to get rewards (回报) .
A. But it is not so bad to take risks.
B. And we don’t like the food finally.
C. All in all, keep trying something new.
D. When we try something new, there’s always the risk.
E. We can see a new kind of art and may be surprised at its beauty.

[1] For only 20 yuan, Fang Wenjing could buy her lunch at a community canteen (社区食堂) in Hangzhou. She had a meat dish, a vegetable dish and a bowl of rice—all very healthy. “The dishes have a home-cooked taste.” said Fang.
[2] Community canteens have become more and more popular in China recently. They were made for the old people at first. It can be difficult for some old people to ① on their own, so the canteens offer help. They can have lunch and dinner within a 10-minute walk, or community workers can bring the dishes to them.

[4] This also encourages community canteens to think of creative ways to serve food and make things easier for people. A canteen in Beijing’s Lugu Community brings out buffet-style (自助模式)dishes. The dishes are ③ at 2.48 Yuan per 100 grams. The price is lower than those of restaurants close by.
[5] There wouldn’t be so many community canteens without the work of local governments. They give subsidies (补贴) for building the canteens as well as the dining cost of the old people. There are now more than 6 700 community canteens in China, according to Tianyancha.

Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts (烟头) and plastic bags.
A group of European scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica (南极洲). Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.
However, in the end, human rubbish may only cause more damage to birds. The toxic (有毒的) chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.
To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap (捕捉) birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt.
Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. To help them, we can recycle, reduce and reuse the products we use every day. Don’t let our products find their way into the natural world.
43. What did European scientists find?
A. Some people help birds build their nests.
B. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.
C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica.
D. The rubbish is not helpful to birds at all.
44. What does the underlined word “damage” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. hurt B. attention C. sadness D. convenience
45. What are people advised to do according to the last paragraph?
A. To use more products. B. To help our bird friends.
C. To pollute the environment. D. To throw litter in nature.
46. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. The Good Influence of Rubbish on Birds.
B. The Bad Influence of Rubbish on Birds.
C. The Pollution Brought by Human Activities.
D. Human Rubbish—the New Nest Material for Birds.
【答案】43. B 44. A 45. B 46. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了鸟类近年来开始使用人类垃圾 (如烟头和塑料袋) 筑巢的现象,并分析了这一行为对鸟类的利弊及人类应采取的措施。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第2段“They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica”可知,科学家发现鸟类在全球 (除南极洲外) 的巢中使用了人造物品 (即垃圾)。选项B“许多鸟类的巢中有垃圾”与此一致。故选B。
【44题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第3段“The toxic chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds...they may get sick or have shorter lives”可知,香烟中的有毒化学物质会伤害幼鸟,导致其生病或寿命缩短。因此“damage”应与“伤害”相关,选项A“hurt”最符合语境。故选A。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“To help them, we can recycle, reduce and reuse the products we use every day”可知,作者建议通过回收、减量和重复使用日常用品来帮助鸟类。选项B“帮助我们的鸟类朋友”概括了这一建议。故选B。
【46题详解】
最佳标题题。全文围绕鸟类使用人类垃圾筑巢的现象展开,既提到垃圾的短期益处 (如驱虫、保暖),也强调其长期危害 (如中毒、火灾)。选项D“人类垃圾——鸟类的新巢材料”最能全面概括主题。A、B仅侧重利弊之一,C偏离核心话题。故选D。
D
A Long March 5 rocket took off from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan Province on May 3, 2024. After flying for about 37 minutes, it successfully placed the Chang’e 6 robotic lunar probe (月球探测器) into an Earth-moon transfer trajectory (转移轨道). Several days later, the probe was programmed to land on the moon’s far side and started its tasks, which would last about 53 days.
This is the world’s first try to bring samples (样本) from the moon’s far side. For China, it’s the second sample-return moon journey. Chang’e 5 successfully brought samples from the moon in the winter of 2020. Up to now, 10 moon sample-return tasks have been carried out by the United States, the former Soviet Union (前苏联) and China, but all these samples were collected from the moon’s near side.
The moon’s far side has always been a subject of scientific wonder because of its many mysteries. It’s facing away from Earth and it can never be seen from Earth. It was once called the “dark side of the moon” even though it receives just as much sunlight as the near side.
Chinese researchers have found that the soil on the far side is much thicker than that on the near side, but they haven’t found out the reason. Samples brought back by Chang’e 5 have helped scientists find that there were volcanic (火山的) activities on the near side around 2 billion years ago. Some scientists thought maybe volcanoes became inactive (不活跃的) on the far side about 4 billion years ago. Is it true? Samples from the far side helped them to know the answer.
“Comparing the make-up of the far side samples from Chang’e 6 with those collected from the near side will be of great scientific value to the international community,” said Martin Sweeting, a famous professor of space engineering.
47. When did Chang’e 6 begin to work on the moon?
A. On May 3, 2024. B. Before flying for about 37 minutes.
C. In the winter of 2020. D. After landing on the moon’s far side.
48. How many times has China got samples from the moon’s near side?
A. Once. B. Twice. C. Five times. D. Ten times.
49. According to the passage, the moon’s far side ________.
A. receives less sunlight than the near side
B. has thicker soil compared with the near side
C. can be seen from Earth with powerful cameras
D. has more recent volcanic activities than the near side
50. What may Martin Sweeting think of the task of Chang’e 6?
A. It’s very difficult. B. It’s valuable for the world.
C. It’s a big step for humans. D. It’s useless for the world.
【答案】47. D 48. A 49. B 50. B
【解析】

【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Chinese researchers have found that the soil on the far side is much thicker than that on the near side,”可知,中国研究人员发现,月球背面的土壤比正面的土壤厚得多。故选B。
【50题详解】
观点态度题。根据最后一段“Comparing the make-up of the far side samples from Chang’e 6 with those collected from the near side will be of great scientific value to the international community,”可知,将嫦娥六号采集的月球背面样本成分与月球正面样本进行对比,对国际科学界具有重大价值;因此,他认为嫦娥六号任务对全球具有重要价值。故选B。

句意:在植物的顶端有一只眼神平静的鸟。根据“with peaceful...”以及前文提到画作要体现和平可知,此处描述鸟的眼神平静,eye“眼睛”符合语境,鸟有两只眼睛,要用复数eyes。故填eyes。
【70题详解】
句意:平静的生活不是由像安静的环境这样的外部事物引起的。根据“life”以及前文国王选择体现和平的画作可知,此处说的是平静的生活,peaceful“平静的”是形容词,修饰名词life,故填peaceful。

[5] There wouldn’t be so many community canteens without the work of local governments. They give subsidies (补贴) for building the canteens as well as the dining cost of the old people. There are now more than 6, 700 community canteens in China, according to Tianyancha.

【答案】例文
My Favorite Traditional Chinese Festival
My favorite traditional Chinese festival is the Spring Festival. It’s the most important festival in China.
Before the festival, people are busy preparing. Families clean their houses to sweep away bad luck. They also buy new clothes and delicious food, especially dumplings and fish.
On that day, people usually get up early to put on new clothes. They visit relatives and friends, saying “Happy New Year” to each other. Children are happy because they can get red envelopes with money from elders. In the evening, families have a big dinner together and watch the Spring Festival Gala.
I like it best because it’s a time for family reunion. No matter how far people are, they try to go home. The warm atmosphere and love between family members make me feel happy and lucky.
