Karachi has a hot climate,and its concrete buildings and paved roads make it even hotter.Offshore,there are islands where mangroves grow.They could be the key to slowing climate change.Mangrove forests pull carbon dioxide out of the air,holding four times as much of the planet-warming gas as other forests can.They support diverse ecosystems.As sea levels rise with global warming,the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding.Karachi’s mangroves are disappearing.But its numbers are rising in other parts of Pakistan.With replanting efforts,the country has tripled (成为三倍) its mangrove coverage over the past 30 years. Qaiser’s work may have worked.Recently,a court in Karachi declared Bundal Island’s mangroves to be protected forests.But unforested parts of the island remain unprotected,and developers want to build there.City officials say this could provide much-needed housing and bring in billions of dollars.They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan. Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates Qaiser’s “extraordinary work” educating the public about mangroves.But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture.“Only 7% of Pakistan’s mangroves are in Karachi,” Haq says.He thinks it’s wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the country while ignoring the success in 93% of it.But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了巴基斯坦建筑师Tariq Qaiser为保护红树林而奔走,并取得了一定的效果,因为红树林可以保护像卡拉奇这样的城市免于遭受自然灾害。 1 2 3 4 1．What do we know about Karachi’s mangroves?(　　) A．They occupy the building land. B．They’re home to various birds. C．They’re primarily being used as firewood. D．They protect the city from climate catastrophes. D 解析：细节理解题。 根据第一段中的“The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi,sitting on the Arabian Sea,from natural disasters.”可知,红树林可以保护卡拉奇免于遭受自然灾害。故选D。 1 2 3 4 2．Why are efforts made to conserve the mangrove trees?(　　) A．Their birthplaces meet crisis. B．They boast huge diversity. C．Their bonds with nature are close. D．They grow at a rapid speed. C 解析：推理判断题。 根据第二段中的“the key to slowing climate change...pull carbon dioxide out of the air...support diverse ecosystems...the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding”可知,红树林可以减缓气候变化、吸收空气中的二氧化碳、支持多样化的生态系统、并保护海滨城市免遭洪灾。据此可以推断,保护它们是因为它们与自然的关系非常密切。故选C。 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 3．What does the Karachi government plan to do?(　　) A．Grow mangroves in other areas. B．Destroy buildings to grow mangroves. C．Build more mangrove reserves. D．Use mangroves to make profit. A 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan.”可知,政府官员宣称他们会用Bundal Island建筑用地中获利的资金去巴基斯坦的其他区域种植红树林。故选A。 1 2 3 4 4．What does Haq think of Qaiser’s work on Karachi’s mangroves?(　　) A．Challenging. B．Effective. C．Insignificant. D．Partial. D 解析：观点态度题。 根据最后一段中的“But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture...But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit.”可知,Haq希望Qaiser可以看到更大的图景,他说巴基斯坦只有7%的红树林在卡拉奇。他认为只关注全国7%的损失,而忽视93%的成功是错误的。但是Qaiser认为保护每一处都很重要。由此可推知,Haq认为Qaiser对于卡拉奇红树林工作成果的认识是片面的,不全面的,故选D项。 1 2 3 4 B (2024·吉林地区四模)Dror Angel,a marine ecologist,seeks to fight climate change by purposefully sinking waste wood to the sea floor,where carbon that the trees stored up while living can remain locked away for centuries.This initiative,led by the company Rewind,is part of a growing trend in carbon capture technologies seeking to draw carbon out of the atmosphere. Whereas some carbon capture schemes require expensive machines and complex chemistry,burying terrestrial biomass (地球生物量) at sea is extremely simple：All it takes are tugboats,barges,and woody waste from forestry and agriculture.The approach is favoured over another ocean-based carbon capture method：growing and sinking seaweed.The advantage lies in the fact that the plant material is grown on land,reducing the risk of robbing the surrounding waters of nutrients.Additionally,the existing infrastructure (基础结构) for terrestrial biomass production makes it more practical at scale.And because woody plants are tough and unlikely to degrade (降解),they can effectively store carbon. In the Black Sea,Rewind has one of the world’s great carbon burial sites.The sea is much saltier at the bottom than at the top,so the two layers don’t mix much at all—one reason why very little oxygen makes it to the sea floor.And because the layers don’t mix,any greenhouse gases that are produced will be locked in the depths for hundreds or thousands of years. However,critics raise concerns about potential drawbacks.The transportation of biomass on earth globally may not be environmentally practicable.And removing terrestrial biomass from land could steal soil nutrients over time.Additionally,as new uses for terrestrial biomass emerge,such as sustainable building materials or biochar (生物炭),the most environmentally friendly approach must be considered. Ning Zeng,a climate scientist,agrees that sinking terrestrial biomass has its limitations and challenges.But the urgency of carbon removal demands that every possible scheme be explored thoroughly,and he says,“I think every idea deserves $1 billion of support to test it out.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项旨在通过将废弃木材沉入海底来对抗气候变化的碳封存技术。 5 6 7 8 5．What is the purpose of Rewind’s project?(　　) A．To develop new marine ecosystems. B．To explore unknown marine species. C．To trap carbon at sea. D．To store carbon for future use. C 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,海洋生态学家Dror Angel试图通过将废弃木材沉入海底来应对气候变化,这些树木在活着的时候储存的碳可以被锁在海底数百年。寻求从大气中吸收碳的碳捕获技术的趋势日益增长,由Rewind公司牵头的这项计划就是这一趋势的一部分。据此可知,Rewind的项目的目的是将碳储存在海里。故选C项。 5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 6．Which of the following advantages of the wooden-sinking method is not mentioned?(　　) A．A decreased impact on marine ecology. B．A slim chance of breaking down. C．Increased absorption of carbon. D．Great practice on a large scale. C 解析：细节理解题。 根据第二段中的“the plant material is grown on land,reducing the risk of robbing the surrounding waters of nutrients”可知,这种植物材料是在陆地上生长的,减少了掠夺周围水域营养物质的风险,也就减小了对海洋生态的影响(A项)。由第二段中的“the existing infrastructure for terrestrial biomass production makes it more practical at scale”可知,地球生物量生产的现有基础结构使其在规模上更加实用(D项);再由“because woody plants are tough and unlikely to degrade,they can effectively store carbon”可知,木本植物坚韧且不太可能降解(B项),它们可以有效地储存碳。因此只有C项“增加碳吸收”没有被提及。 5 6 7 8 7．What can be inferred from paragraph 4?(　　) A．The transportation of terrestrial biomass is harmless to the environment. B．Carbon capture efforts need to be balanced with other environmental goals. C．Terrestrial biomass has no significant use other than carbon capture. D．Burying terrestrial biomass is the best way to keep carbon. 5 6 7 8 B 5 6 7 8 解析：推理判断题。分析第四段可知,第一句为该段主旨句,表示“但批评人士对潜在的不利因素表示担忧”。所以本段介绍的是沉木存碳这一方法的缺点,即下文提到的“全球范围内的运输可能对环境不友好”“从土地上移除地球生物量可能会慢慢地窃取土壤的养分”。再根据下文中的“Additionally,as new uses for terrestrial biomass emerge...the most environmentally friendly approach must be considered.”可知,随着地球生物量新用途的出现,例如可持续建筑材料或生物炭,必须考虑最有利于环境的办法。据此可推知,碳捕获所作出的努力需要与其他环境目标保持平衡。故选B项。 5 6 7 8 B 8．What is the article’s tone towards the initiative led by Dror Angel and Rewind?(　　) A．Skeptical. B．Objective. C．Ambiguous. D．Indifferent. 解析：观点态度题。 通读全文可知,文章第二段提到了Rewind的项目的优势,第四段提到了批评者对其潜在缺点的担忧,最后一段提到一气候科学家认为这一项目有局限性和挑战,但鉴于碳去除的紧迫性,每一种可能的方法都应该得到充分探索。所以文章对该计划的叙述既非完全怀疑,也非全然赞同,而是呈现了客观全面的信息。故选B项。skeptical“怀疑的”;ambiguous“模棱两可的”;indifferent“漠不关心的”。 5 6 7 8 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分) [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了过度训练的危害、恢复方式和预防措施。 (2024·山东济南一模) Risks of Overtraining Getting into shape and training for an event such as a marathon requires long-lasting and intense physical commitment.1( ) But the truth is, sometimes the very acts we do to get healthy can actually push us past our physical limits. A．It’s easy to measure and track. B．Allowing time for recovery is also essential. C．The problem is that they show up very gradually. D．Below are the signs and symptoms of overtraining. E．Listening to your body will assure you of your fitness goals. F．If far beyond, it’ll take longer to adapt and may cause injury. G．We generally assume regular intense exercise is good for our health. 解析：空前讲到了“为马拉松这样的项目强身健体和训练需要长期和高强度的身体投入”,而空后则是转折“但是事实上,有时候我们为获得健康而做的事情实际上会推动我们超越身体的极限”。由此可知,空处讲到的应该是“长期和高强度的身体投入”是可取的,故G项“我们通常认为定期的高强度运动对我们的健康有益”符合语境,且G项中的“We generally assume”和空后的“the truth is”形成了明显的转折。 1．答案：G　 Specifically, overtraining is a set of signs that occur when your body is not able to recover sufficiently before going into your next workout.2( ) People tend to ignore them. Over time, the cycle of starting the next training session before allowing recovery causes breakdown of the very parts of the body that you work so hard to build up. A．It’s easy to measure and track. B．Allowing time for recovery is also essential. C．The problem is that they show up very gradually. D．Below are the signs and symptoms of overtraining. E．Listening to your body will assure you of your fitness goals. F．If far beyond, it’ll take longer to adapt and may cause injury. G．We generally assume regular intense exercise is good for our health. 解析：空前讲到了“过度训练是指你的身体在下一次锻炼前不能充分恢复的一系列迹象”,而空后讲到了“人们往往会忽略它们”。由此可知,“一系列迹象”是不容易被人发现的, C项“问题是它们是逐渐出现的”说明了不易被人发现的原因,且C项中的they指代上文中的“a set of signs”,故选C。 2．答案：C　 The structures and systems of your body adapt to the demands you have placed on them before the rest time. If your workout slightly goes beyond your current ability, it will adapt to what you did in a positive way.3( ) A．It’s easy to measure and track. B．Allowing time for recovery is also essential. C．The problem is that they show up very gradually. D．Below are the signs and symptoms of overtraining. E．Listening to your body will assure you of your fitness goals. F．If far beyond, it’ll take longer to adapt and may cause injury. G．We generally assume regular intense exercise is good for our health. 解析：空前讲到了“如果你的锻炼稍微超出了你目前的能力,它将以一种积极的方式适应你的锻炼”,F项“如果远远超过(你目前的能力),它将需要更长的时间来适应,而且可能造成伤害”与上文形成了递进关系,故F项符合语境。 3．答案：F　 Two main factors are necessary in recovery: nutrition and rest. Good nutrition, including water and protein intake, is extremely important, especially within 40 minutes of your workout.4( )Your body uses the nutrients you have given it during the rest time, especially sleep, to strengthen. A．It’s easy to measure and track. B．Allowing time for recovery is also essential. C．The problem is that they show up very gradually. D．Below are the signs and symptoms of overtraining. E．Listening to your body will assure you of your fitness goals. F．If far beyond, it’ll take longer to adapt and may cause injury. G．We generally assume regular intense exercise is good for our health. 解析：本段主旨句为“Two main factors are necessary in recovery: nutrition and rest.”,空前已经讲到了“nutrition”,因此,空处应该会讲到“rest”。B项“允许恢复的时间也是必要的”符合语境,且其中的“also”表明了空处与空前的递进关系。 4．答案：B One of the best ways to prevent overtraining is to focus on your morning resting heart rate.5( ) Generally, you will detect an increase in your heart rate before the other signs show up. Tracking it in a log can be a great way to monitor your recovery. A．It’s easy to measure and track. B．Allowing time for recovery is also essential. C．The problem is that they show up very gradually. D．Below are the signs and symptoms of overtraining. E．Listening to your body will assure you of your fitness goals. F．If far beyond, it’ll take longer to adapt and may cause injury. G．We generally assume regular intense exercise is good for our health. 解析：空前讲到了“focus on your morning resting heart rate”,空后讲到了“you will detect an increase in your heart rate”,因此,空处讲到的应该也是与关注和检测心率相关的内容,A项“它很容易被测量和记录”承上启下。A项中的“It”指的是上文中的“morning resting heart rate”。 5．答案：A　 Ⅲ.语法填空(每小题1.5分,共15分) Incense (香) boasts a long history,1 its roots in many cultures—ancient China, ancient Egypt, ancient Babylon and beyond.

The temperature was below zero so I ducked into the subway station, hoping to get warm. Warmth came to my body as I settled onto a bench with a cup of hot coffee. Now I was ready to relax and do some serious people-watching. I noticed a homeless man seated nearby. The pleasant smell of delicious food from the subway food court (餐饮区) was tempting me to consider an early dinner. From the longing look in my neighbor’s eyes, it was obvious that he also noticed the good smell. I wondered how long it had been since he had eaten anything, expecting he would approach me for a handout (施舍物). But he never did. My head and heart were battling it out: the former telling me to mind my own business, and the latter urging me to make an immediate trip to the food court for him. While this inner debate was fierce, a well-dressed young couple suddenly approached. “Excuse me, sir,” began the husband. “We just finished eating and our appetite wasn’t as big as we thought. We hate to waste food. Can you help us out and put this to good use?” The kind stranger handed a large container with food. “Thank you,” came the grateful reply.Feeling good about what I had seen, but disappointed by my own lack of action, I observed my neighbor’s response to his sudden good fortune. He lifted the soup, cupping his hands around the steaming bowl. It was obvious that he was going to enjoy this miracle meal. He opened his mouth and suddenly, he stopped. The reason for this unexpected behavior soon became clear. Entering the hall was a new arrival, in his seventies, hatless and gloveless. His lightweight jacket was a poor protection against the cold. His face and hands were red and damaged. People around focused on him with pity and whispered at this sad sight. 注意：续写词数应为150个左右。 My neighbor was the only one taking action. ________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tears blurred my vision when I went to buy food at the food court. ______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ [参考范文] My neighbor was the only one taking action.Quickly pulling aside his miracle meal,my neighbor leaped to his feet and guided the elderly man to share the seat.Numb with cold,the old man didn’t expect the invitation,moving clumsily.Hardly had he seated himself when my neighbor tenderly put his down jacket over the older man’s shoulders,slipping his arms into sleeves.Finally,he said, “Can you help me out?”,pointing to the meal and placing the steaming cup of soup in the stranger’s hands.Seeing this,my head and heart stopped battling and I had my decision. Tears blurred my vision when I went to buy food at the food court.What my neighbor said exactly spoke my mind.With regret,I felt obliged to do the same.Respectfully and cautiously,I approached them with steaming soup and a sandwich.People around cast an approving smile in my direction.“Can you help me out?” I asked.“Why not?” he added jokingly.“But only if you go halfway with me on that sandwich,which is too much for a man of my age.” It wasn’t until that day that I truly learned the meaning of sharing.I left the subway station feeling warmer than I had ever thought possible. $$
