Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分)

难度:☆☆
Colorado's Grays Peak rises 14,278 feet above sea level,high enough that trees can't grow towards the top,though there are plenty of bushes,rocks,etc.It was in this unforgiving place that Bev Wedelstedt was unlucky enough to have a bitter experience.
It was August 2018,and Wedelstedt,56,was on her way back down the trail (小路) with three friends.A storm was upon,and they were anxious to get off the mountain.When they approached a rocky drop of a couple of feet,Wedelstedt decided that instead of shaking down on her hip—the safe way to go—she would leap.Then she landed on her left leg and heard a snap (劈啪声).
Every step after that was painful.Before long,she had to stop.As one friend ran down to get help,a number of other hikers,all strangers,attempted to help her down the narrow trail by walking on either side of her to support her weight,but that proved slow and dangerous.
Finally,one hiker,Matt,asked her,“How do you feel about a fireman's carry?” Before she knew it,he lifted her over his shoulder.Matt clearly couldn't carry her all the way down by himself.So six hikers and one of her friends followed.Three hours and two mountainous miles later,this human conveyor belt finally met the ambulance men,who took Wedelstedt to the hospital.
Now Wedelstedt has mostly recovered from her ill-fated hike,but she knows she'll never shake one thing from that day: the memory of the band of strangers who came to her rescue.“I told them I wanted to meet a lot of guys,but this isn't the way I wanted to do it.I'm still in awe now,” she said.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Wedelstedt在下山时不幸伤到了她的左腿,得到一群陌生人的帮助的故事,这使得Wedelstedt终生难忘。

2.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?( )
A.Walking down the rocky mountain.
B.Supporting Wedelstedt to walk.

D.Keeping Wedelstedt on the trail.
解析:B 代词指代题。由第三段中“As one friend ran down to get help ...but that proved slow and dangerous.”可知,that指代上文已提到的内容,上文讲到其他人试图搀扶着她下山,可得出that指代“支撑Wedelstedt行走”。故选B。
3.How did strangers help Wedelstedt?( )
A.By giving her encouragement.
B.By supporting her on both sides.
C.By following her all the way.

难度:☆☆☆☆
In a policy address to lawmakers,Japan's Prime Minister,Fumio Kishida,said the country's population problem was a case of solving the issue “now or never”,and that it “simply cannot wait any longer because it can affect social functions”.
“In thinking of the sustainability and inclusiveness of our nation's economy and society,we place child care support as our most important policy,” he said,adding that he wants the government to double its spending on child-related programs,and that a new government agency would be set up in April to focus on the issue.
Japan has one of the lowest birth rates in the world,and it recorded fewer than 800,000 births in 2022 for the first time since records began in 1899.The country also has one of the highest life expectancies in the world; in 2020,nearly one in 1,500 people in Japan were age 100 or older,according to government data.
These trends have driven a growing population problem,with a rapidly aging society,a shrinking workforce and not enough young people to fill the gaps in the stagnating (停滞) economy.The country's high cost of living,limited space and lack of child care support in cities make it difficult to raise children,meaning fewer couples are having kids.Experts point to the pessimism young people in Japan hold towards the future,many frustrated with work pressure and economic stagnation.
How about other parts of East Asia? South Korea recently broke its own record for the world's lowest birth rate,with data from November 2023 showing a South Korean woman will have an average of 0.79 children in her lifetime—far below the 2.1 needed to maintain a stable population.Japan's birth rate stands at 1.3,while the United States is at 1.6. Meanwhile,China's population shrank in 2022 for the first time,adding pressure to its economic growth.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇新闻报道。日本政府就本国人口危机发出了严重警告,称由于出生率不断下降,人口问题可能影响社会运转。
5.How does the Japanese government feel about the falling birth rate?( )
A.Surprised. B.Confused.
C.Embarrassed. D.Worried.
解析:D 推理判断题。根据第一段再结合第二段谈到的日本政府对出生率下降所采取的行动,可推知,日本政府对此感到很担忧。故选D。
6.Which of the following has led the birth rate in Japan to decline?( )
A.The rapidly aging society.
B.The high life expectancies.
C.The shortage of workforce.
D.The various stresses of life.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据第四段“The country's high cost of living ...meaning fewer couples are having kids.”可知,各种生活压力导致年轻人觉得抚养孩子很困难,于是出现出生率下降的情况。故选D。
7.What are the statistics in the last paragraph used to show?( )
A.Ignorance of the birth rate.
B.Serious population crisis.
C.Weak care services for children.
D.Potential harm to women's health.
解析:B 推理判断题。根据最后一段可推知,最后一段的统计数据用来说明严重的人口危机。故选B。
8.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?( )
A.Society. B.Health.
C.Education. D.Science.
解析:A 推理判断题。根据第一段及全文可知,本文主要在谈:日本政府由于人口出生率下降,采取了相应措施,并分析了出现人口危机的原因,最后一段还指出在东亚存在的人口危机问题。人口以及出生率属于社会主题。故选A。

(2024·九省联考)
Whenever you have to write a paper,a letter,or any other document for work or school,you probably head toward the computer.Now,most people reach for 1________(keyboard) faster than they pick up pens.In a Scottish primary school,however,Mr.Norman Lewis is taking a different approach.He feels that neat handwriting 2________(be) still an important skill,so he has his students write not only by hand but also 3________ old-fashioned fountain pens.
Fountain pens 4________ (use) in schools long ago and have been regaining popularity lately because they are refillable.Today,a writer 5________ (simple) throws an empty pen away and gets 6________ new one.
So far,Mr.Lewis is pleased with the results of his experiment.He reports that his students are taking more care with their work,and their self-confidence has improved as well.He is happy with the 7________ (improve) he sees in his students' writing 8________ in his own writing.He knows that computers are here 9________(stay) and that they will not disappear.However,he believes that the practice with fountain pens helps students to focus,to write faster,and they can feel proud of 10________ (they).
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了苏格兰的一位小学老师Norman Lewis鼓励学生用老式自来水笔写字,并取得了不错的效果。
1.解析:keyboards 考查名词的数。分析句子结构可知,空处作动词短语reach for的宾语,需要用名词;keyboard为可数名词,其前无限定词;且空处与空后的pens对应,所以填keyboards。
2.解析:is 考查时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,该空在宾语从句中作谓语。结合主句的时态可知,宾语从句的时态也用一般现在时;主语neat handwriting是第三人称单数,所以填is。
3.解析:with 考查介词。分析句子结构可知,此处是not only ...but also连接的并列项,结合not only后面的“by hand”可知,空处也需要填介词,且意为“用”;表示“使用工具”需要用with,所以填with。
4.解析:were used 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,use作主句的谓语动词。根据时间状语long ago可知,时态用一般过去时;主语Fountain pens与use之间形成了被动关系;主语是复数,所以填were used。
5.解析:simply 考查副词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰空后的动词throws,需要用副词,所以填simply。
6.解析:a 考查冠词。根据空后的“形容词+代词”结构可知,空处需要用到冠词;结合句意可知,此处表泛指,且new的发音以辅音音素开头,所以填a。
7.解析:improvement 考查名词。分析句子结构可知,空处与空前的the一起作with的宾语,空处需要用名词,所以填improvement。
8.解析:and 考查连词。分析句子结构可知,空前的“in his students' writing”和空后的“in his own writing”为并列关系,所以填and。
9.解析:to stay 考查固定结构。此处考查固定结构be here to stay,表示“某事物持续下去/被普遍接受”,所以填to stay。
10.解析:themselves 考查反身代词。分析句子结构可知,空处作介词的宾语,与句子的主语they指代相同,空处应用反身代词,所以填themselves。

Dear fellow students,
With Endangered Species Day approaching,I'm writing to appeal to all of you to protect wild animals and plants.
As we all know,we human beings could not live without wildlife,because they play an important role in keeping the balance of nature.Protecting them is actually protecting ourselves.We can put some relevant posters around the school and hand out some leaflets in the neighborhood.What's more,we can also attend some lectures to have a better understanding of wildlife and their situation.
We students can also do our part.Let's take action right now!
第二节(满分25分)
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。
“Daddy,I want to ask your permission to study abroad,” I said to my father a few months before my graduation from high school.But hardly before I finished,he shouted,“No!”
“But why?” I replied.“If you are worried about money,it will be OK since I have got a scholarship...”
But he refused to give in.At the moment,I didn't know what to say.For more than two years,I had been working very hard to pass all the necessary examinations.I had not told my father because I wanted to give him a pleasant surprise.I thought he would be very proud of me because it was many of my classmates' parents' dream to send their children to study abroad.
“Why do I have to get your permission? I am already 18 and I'm not a kid anymore.” I said angrily and rushed to my bedroom,shutting the door violently.Blinded by anger,I found that I could not stay at my hometown any longer.Late that night,I slipped out of the house and decided to take the bus to the railway station to start my own life as far away from my home as possible.
The bus stop was just two blocks away from my home.When I got there,I found that I forgot to take any money with me and missed the last bus.I did not want to go back home,so I sat down on the bench and closed my eyes to have a break.
Suddenly,I was woken up by my phone.I looked around and found the road was deserted and the street was so quiet that I regretted that I had left home in such a hurry.I picked up the phone and answered the phone even without checking the number.
“Have you had a good sleep? It's going to rain.Shall we go home now?”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
It was my father's voice!
I grabbed my bag and hurried toward him.
[参考范文]
It was my father's voice! I rubbed my sleepy eyes and looked around.There,about one hundred meters from the stop stood my father in the shadows.Then I realized that my father had been standing there all the time.Perhaps,he knew it would be useless to argue with his stubborn little child.What he could do was waiting for my anger to die away.At first,I wanted to ignore him,but his voice sounded so assuring in the frightening quietness of night!
I grabbed my bag and hurried toward him. On the way home,my father explained apologetically that he was caught off guard by the news and that he was very worried about my safety if I would go so far away alone.“Now I have realized that you have grown up and it is time for you to chase your dream.I will give my permission as long as you promise to live on campus and will not slip away when you are angry abroad,” my father said with resignation.
