It’s not just a wall; it’s a symbol of architectural brilliance. Winding over 13,000 miles, it’s a great wonder that has stood the test of time. The view from the wall is breathtaking, with the mountains rolling out beneath you like a vast, ancient sea. It’s a place where you can almost hear the echoes (回响) of history, and it never fails to inspire admiration. Ben: The Terracotta Army — A Brief Look at Imperial China From a British historian’s viewpoint, the Terracotta Army (兵马俑) in Xi’an is a wealth of historical understanding. The life-sized soldiers, horses and chariots are an impressive display of the first emperor’s power and thorough attention to detail of ancient Chinese skilled workers. Each figure is unique, with different facial expressions and clothing, offering a window into the magnificence of the Qin Dynasty. It’s a place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Dylan: The Li River — A Painter’s Wonderland As a French artist, I am fascinated by the graceful beauty of the Li River in Guilin. The river winds through limestone karsts, creating scenery that seems to have been from a Chinese painting. The reflections of the mountains on the calm water’s surface are charming. It’s a place that inspires quietness and creativity, a perfect spot to set up a painting stand and capture the essence (精髓) of China’s natural beauty. Clara: The Giant Pandas — A Success Story of Protecting Wildlife From an Australian environmental protector’s standpoint the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a light of hope. The sight of these cute pandas in their semi-wild environments is heartwarming. It’s incredible to see the efforts made to protect and breed (繁殖) these adorable creatures, which are not only a symbol of China but also evidence of global efforts to protect wildlife. It’s a place that reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect our planet’s biodiversity. 1. What do both Alice and Ben want to convey? A. A sense of wonder and respect for history. B. Admiration for ancient skilled workers C. A serious concern about the war and peace. D. Regret for the long-lost soldiers. 2. What does Dylan think of the Li River? A. Its water is shallow enough for a cool bath. B. Mountains around it are the most attractive C. Its beauty might encourage painters’ inspiration D. Its popularity comes from ancient poems and paintings. 3. Why does the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding stand for hope? A. It appeals to people to resist pollution. B. It collects money for environmental protection. C. It contributes to better education globally. D. It raises people’s awareness of wildlife. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3.

The view from the wall is breathtaking, with the mountains rolling out beneath you like a vast, ancient sea. It’s a place where you can almost hear the echoes (回响) of history, and it never fails to inspire admiration.(作为一名美国历史爱好者，每当我想到中国时，首先浮现在我脑海中的就是长城。它不仅仅是一堵墙；它是建筑辉煌的象征。它蜿蜒超过13000英里，是一个经得起时间考验的伟大奇迹。站在城墙上的景色令人叹为观止，群山在你脚下绵延起伏，就像一片浩瀚而古老的海洋。在这里，你几乎可以听到历史的回声，它总是让人赞叹不已)”以及第二段“From a British historian’s viewpoint, the Terracotta Army (兵马俑) in Xi’an is a wealth of historical understanding. The life-sized soldiers, horses and chariots are an impressive display of the first emperor’s power and thorough attention to detail of ancient Chinese skilled workers. Each figure is unique, with different facial expressions and clothing, offering a window into the magnificence of the Qin Dynasty. It’s a place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.(从英国历史学家的角度来看，西安兵马俑是一个丰富的历史认识。真人大小的士兵、马匹和战车令人印象深刻地展示了第一位皇帝的权力和对古代中国熟练工人细节的彻底关注。每个人物都是独一无二的，有不同的面部表情和服装，提供了一个窗口进入辉煌的秦朝。这个地方会让你感觉时光倒流)”可知，爱丽丝和本都想传达一种惊奇感和对历史的尊重。故选A。 2题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“It’s a place that inspires quietness and creativity, a perfect spot to set up a painting stand and capture the essence (精髓) of China’s natural beauty.(这是一个激发宁静和创造力的地方，是一个建立绘画展台和捕捉中国自然美景精髓的完美场所)”可知，迪伦认为漓江的美可能会激发画家的灵感。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“It’s incredible to see the efforts made to protect and breed (繁殖) these adorable creatures, which are not only a symbol of China but also evidence of global efforts to protect wildlife. It’s a place that reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect our planet’s biodiversity.(人们为保护和繁殖这些可爱的动物所做的努力令人难以置信，它们不仅是中国的象征，也是全球保护野生动物努力的证据。这是一个提醒我们保护地球生物多样性的共同责任的地方)”可知，成都大熊猫繁育研究基地代表着希望因为它提高了人们对野生动物的认识。故选D。 B What will you do when one of the few bookstores in your neighborhood shuts down? If you’re Latanya DeVaughn, you will make a new and improved one! As a mom and writer, she had always dreamed of opening her own bookstore, so after watching another close its doors for good, she saw her chance. While Latanya said every neighborhood deserved a bookstore, actually making it happen simply wasn’t possible. What she came up with instead was to turn a bus into a bookmobile! With the help of her community, she raised money for her dream and, at the end of 2021, it came true! Bronx Bound Books rolled out in style as a bus with orange cube bookshelves. “People love the way it smells,” Latanya added. “One woman said the wood smell makes her feel like she’s at home.” Although the bookstore on wheels carries around 30,000 new and used books, it has more room than you might expect! Latanya also makes sure to prepare books with a variety of characters, so all readers can see themselves in the pages. Of course, her collection also features works of noted Black authors like James Baldwin and Alice Walker. “It’s meant to be that way,” she explained, “because I remember going to bookstores and having to look through books just to find someone I felt I could identify with.” Setting up her bookstore in a new spot each day, Latanya is doing her part to make sure that everyone in the neighborhood has books to read. That’s what Bronx Bound Books is for. “I can’t open up a bookstore on every corner, but I can probably pop up on tons of different corners,” she said. Thanks to Latanya and her Bronx Bound Books, the town is becoming a heaven for book lovers day by day. I’m sure that the little bookstore will continue to develop quickly! 4. How did Latanga DeVoughn respond to the shutdown of bookstores? A She took over and reopened them soon. B. She set up her own special bookstore. C. She opened bookstores on every block. D. She called on neighbors to open a new one. 5. James Baldwin and Alice Walker are mentioned in paragraph 3 to show that________. A. it’s hard to store books with various characters. B. all readers can identify with Black authors. C. Latanya cares for individual readers’ need. D. Bronx Bound Books has limited room. 6. Why is Bronx Bound Books open? A. To recycle old books around the neighborhood. B. To raise money for Latanya DeVaughn’s dream. C. To make reading accessible to everyone in the neighborhood. D. To open up a bookstore on every comer across the world. 7. What does the author think of Bronx Bound Books? A. Alarming. B. Affordable. C. Creative. D. Promising. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Latanya DeVaughn设法开了一家特殊的书店——Bronx Bound Books，尽自己的一份力量确保附近的每个人都有书读。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“While Latanya said every neighborhood deserved a bookstore, actually making it happen simply wasn’t possible. What she came up with instead was to turn a bus into a bookmobile!(虽然Latanya说每个社区都应该有一家书店，但实际上这是不可能的。她想到的是把一辆公共汽车变成一辆流动图书车!)”可知，面对实体书店的关闭，Latanya创办了自己特殊的书店——流动图书车。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“Latanya also makes sure to prepare books with a variety of characters, so all readers can see themselves in the pages. Of course, her collection also features works of noted Black authors like James Baldwin and Alice Walker. ‘It’s meant to be that way,’ she explained, ‘because I remember going to bookstores and having to look through books just to find someone I felt I could identify with.’(Latanya还确保有各种人物角色的书，这样所有读者都能在书中看到自己。当然，她的作品集也收录了詹姆斯·鲍德温和爱丽丝·沃克等著名黑人作家的作品。‘本来就是这样的，’她解释道，‘因为我记得我去书店，不得不翻阅书籍，只是为了找到一个我觉得可以认同的书’)”推知，第三段中提到詹姆斯·鲍德温和爱丽丝·沃克是为了表明Latanya关心每个读者的需求。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Setting up her bookstore in a new spot each day, Latanya is doing her part to make sure that everyone in the neighborhood has books to read. That’s what Bronx Bound Books is for.(Latanya每天在一个新的地方开设书店，尽自己的一份力量，确保社区里的每个人都有书可读。这就是Bronx Bound Books的目的)”可知，Bronx Bound Books的目的是确保社区里的每个人都有书可读。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段“Thanks to Latanya and her Bronx Bound Books, the town is becoming a heaven for book lovers day by day. I’m sure that the-little bookstore will continue to develop quickly!(多亏了Latanya和她的Bronx Bound Books，这个小镇正一天天成为图书爱好者的天堂。我相信小书店会继续快速发展!)”推知，作者认为Bronx Bound Books的前景很好。故选D项。 C Instant noodles are a favorite quick meal when people don’t want to cook. Picture eating them while watching TV on a stormy night — pure comfort! But many believe they’re just junk food that harms health. The truth is, whether they’re unhealthy depends entirely on how you prepare them. The main issue isn’t the noodles themselves, but the common way people make them: pouring boiling water over dried noodles and adding all the salty seasoning packets. These flavor packets contain high levels of salt and artificial additives (人工添加剂), making this version unbalanced and unhealthy. Actually, plain instant noodles aren’t terrible. They’re fried during production (which adds some oil and calories), but they fill you up well and provide quick energy when you’re hungry. To make them healthier, cook them properly: boil the noodles first, drain excess starchy (含有淀粉的) water, then use fresh water or broth (肉汤). Crucially, use only half the seasoning packet to reduce salt. Add vegetables like spinach or carrots and protein like an egg or tofu while cooking. This boosts vitamins and protein while cutting sodium (钠). This transforms them into a balanced meal! So, are instant noodles junk food? If prepared lazily with all the seasoning and no extras, yes. But when cooked with less seasoning plus veggies and protein, they become a decent occasional meal. Remember: the secret is variety. Enjoy them once or twice a week as part of a diverse diet, and they won’t harm your health. They’re far less scary than people think — just upgrade your cooking method! 8. What determines if instant noodles are unhealthy? A. Their quick cooking time. B. The time of eating. C. The preparation method. D. The junk food label. 9. What is the major cause of unhealthy instant noodles? A. The dried noodles. B. The flavor packets. C. Using boiling water. D. People avoiding cooking. 10. What is the main purpose of the third paragraph? A. Warn about health dangers. B. Give cooking instructions. C. Argue noodles are harmless. D. List harmful additives. 11. What is the suitable title for the passage? A. Instant Noodles: Not All Waste. B. Instant Noodles: How to Cook? C. Instant Noodles: Eat Sometimes. D. Instant Noodles: What we know? 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了方便面是否属于不健康食品的争议，指出其健康性取决于烹饪方式。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The truth is, whether they’re unhealthy depends entirely on how you prepare them.(事实上，它们是否不健康完全取决于你如何制备它们。)”可知，方便面是否不健康取决于制备方式。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The main issue isn’t the noodles themselves, but the common way people make them: pouring boiling water over dried noodles and adding all the salty seasoning packets. These flavor packets contain high levels of salt and artificial additives (人工添加剂), making this version unbalanced and unhealthy.(主要问题不在于面条本身，而在于人们制作面条的常见方式：将沸水倒在干面条上，并加入所有咸味调料包。这些调味包含有高含量的盐和人工添加剂，使这种版本不平衡和不健康。)”可知，方便面健康风险的核心诱因在于调味包中过量的钠盐与人工合成添加剂。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“To make them healthier, cook them properly: boil the noodles first, drain excess starchy (含有淀粉的) water, then use fresh water or broth (肉汤). Crucially, use only half the seasoning packet to reduce salt. Add vegetables like spinach or carrots and protein like an egg or tofu while cooking. This boosts vitamins and protein while cutting sodium (钠). This transforms them into a balanced meal!为了使它们更健康，请正确烹饪：先煮面条，沥干多余的淀粉水，然后用淡水或肉汤。至关重要的是，只使用一半的调味料包来减少盐的摄入。烹饪时加入菠菜或胡萝卜等蔬菜和鸡蛋或豆腐等蛋白质。这可以增加维生素和蛋白质，同时减少钠的摄入。这使它们变成了一顿均衡的饭菜！)”可知，作者通过分步说明详细解释了如何通过调整烹饪方式使其更均衡，所以本段目的是给出正确的烹饪指导。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据文章第一段“Instant noodles are a favorite quick meal when people don’t want to cook. Picture eating them while watching TV on a stormy night — pure comfort! But many believe they’re just junk food that harms health. The truth is, whether they’re unhealthy depends entirely on how you prepare them.(方便面是人们不想做饭时最喜欢的快餐。想象一下在暴风雨的夜晚边看电视边吃它们的情景——纯粹的安慰！但许多人认为它们只是危害健康的垃圾食品。事实上，它们是否不健康完全取决于你如何制备它们。)”等内容可知。文章主要讨论了方便面是否属于不健康食品的争议，指出其健康性取决于烹饪方式。所以选项A. Instant Noodles: Not All Waste.(方便面：并非全无是处)最能概括文意，适合用作标题。故选A。 D California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor (因素). The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent. Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources (资源). But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development. The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt (融雪). Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season. 12. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The increasing variety of California big trees. B. The seriousness of big-tree loss in California. C. The distribution of big trees in California forests. D. The influence of farming on big trees in California. 13. Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees? A. Ecological studies of forests. B. Banning woodcutting. C. Fire control measures. D. Limiting housing development. 14. What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre? A. Inadequate snowmelt. B. A longer dry season. C. Dampness of the air. D. A warmer climate. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests? B. Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon C. California’s Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone? D. Patrick McIntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。根据一项研究显示，自20世纪30年代以来，加州已经损失了一半的大树，而气候变化似乎是其主要因素。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.(新的研究发现，在超过46000平方英里的加州森林中，直径超过两英尺的树木数量减少了50%。从雾蒙蒙的北部海岸到内华达山脉，再到洛杉矶上空的圣加布里埃尔山脉，没有一个地区幸免或未受影响。在塞拉高原地区，大树的数量减少了55%以上；在南加州的部分地区，下降了近75%。)”可知，本段主要说明加利福尼亚州大树损失的严重性。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources.(积极的野火控制使得加利福尼亚的森林里到处都是小树，它们与大树争夺资源)”可知，对野火的控制使得加利福尼亚的森林里挤满了小树，与大树争夺资源，也就是对野火的控制是善意的，但对大树产生了不利的影响。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.(McIntyre说，自20世纪30年代以来，导致该州水资源压力加剧的最大因素是气温上升，这导致树木向空气中流失更多的水分，以及雪融化的提前，这减少了旱季树木可获得的水供应)”可知，造成加州水资源短缺的最大因素是温度升高。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor.(根据周二发表的一项研究，自20世纪30年代以来，加州已经失去了一半的大树，气候变化似乎是一个主要因素)”可知，本文主要介绍了加利福尼亚州森林地区大树数量减少的现状，随后分析了大树总量减少的原因。C项“加州的森林：所有的大树都去了哪里？”最适合作为标题，故选C。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Grocery shopping is something everyone has to do.

Mr. Smith praised her for the great work. After Mrs. Smith had pressed the money into her hand, Anna didn’t even look at the money and then walked out of the house. She’d expected ten dollars. Now she saw that it was a one-hundred-dollar bill! Anna imagined her parents’ faces when she handed them the one hundred dollars. Things hadn’t been easy for Anna’s family since Anna’s dad had lost his engineering job a year ago. There had been no new clothes or movies in the last year. They no longer went out to eat on Fridays. Anna didn’t really mind, as long as her family was together. But now she could help. One hundred dollars! That was enough to fill the car with gas or to buy a bag of groceries. Her excitement faded as she wondered if Mrs. Smith realized how much money she had given her. Could she have made a mistake? Anna felt bad as she remembered that Mrs. Smith had simply pulled the money from her purse without looking at it. Anna thought, “Maybe Mrs. Smith meant to give me the one-hundred-dollar bill. Baby-sitting three children is a lot of work.” Soon Anna remembered that the Smiths didn’t seem to have much money, either. But, she silently argued with herself. “They gave me the money. I didn’t steal it.” She found her parents in the living room. Anna took a deep breath and told them what had happened. “I wanted to give the money to you to help out the family, but I think Mrs. Smith made a mistake.” She continued. “I’m going to give it back to her.” Dad settled his big hand on her shoulder. “You just gave us the best gift, Anna.” Mom kissed her. “We’re proud of you, sweetheart.” 注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右: 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Anna went to Mrs. Smith’s house again. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Smith opened her purse and counted out ten dollars. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The next morning, Anna went to Mrs. Smith’s house again. “I think you overpaid me last night,” she said and handed the one-hundred-dollar bill to her. Mrs. Smith looked surprised. “I didn’t know where that money had gone! I knew that I had put it in my purse. Then this morning, I couldn’t find it.” She started to cry. “It’s the last payment for something my husband needed. I made a mistake of giving you the one hundred dollars, but you are such an honest and kind girl that you did not keep it.” Mrs. Smith opened her purse and counted out ten dollars. “I hope you’ll baby-sit for us again. Our children think you’re the best baby-sitter they’ve ever had, and so do I. I think they will be proud of having such a great sister to baby-sit them!” Anna said yes and went back home happily. When she gave her mother the ten dollars, the best gift for her, she felt very proud because she thought she did a great a job. 【解析】 【分析】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述安娜在给史密斯夫妇看孩子之后史密斯太太给了她一百块钱报酬。回家之后她很矛盾，一方面在想是否是史密斯太太拿错了，一方面又想可能是她的劳动应该值这么多，并且这些钱能帮助家里改善一下生活，但她最终还是跟父母讲了这件事，说她觉得是史密斯太太给多了报酬，她要还给人家，她的父母听完之后很为她骄傲。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上，安娜又去了史密斯太太家。”可知，第一段可描写安娜说完来意之后史密斯太太的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“史密斯太太打开钱包，数了十美元。”可知，第二段可描写史密斯太太为安娜的诚实所感动，付了报酬并且决定继续让她帮忙看孩子。 2.续写线索：询问——事实——感动——继续雇用——开心——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①开始：start to do/begin to do ②回家：go back home/return home ③需要：need/want 情绪类 ①吃惊：surprised/amazed ②对……感到骄傲：be proud of/take pride in 【点睛】 [高分句型1]. I didn’t know where that money had gone!（由where引导的宾语从句作know的宾语） [高分句型2]. I made a mistake of giving you the one hundred dollars, but you are such an honest and kind girl that you did not keep it.（such…that结构的结果状语从句） [高分句型3].

It’s not just a wall; it’s a symbol of architectural brilliance. Winding over 13,000 miles, it’s a great wonder that has stood the test of time. The view from the wall is breathtaking, with the mountains rolling out beneath you like a vast, ancient sea. It’s a place where you can almost hear the echoes (回响) of history, and it never fails to inspire admiration. Ben: The Terracotta Army — A Brief Look at Imperial China From a British historian’s viewpoint, the Terracotta Army (兵马俑) in Xi’an is a wealth of historical understanding. The life-sized soldiers, horses and chariots are an impressive display of the first emperor’s power and thorough attention to detail of ancient Chinese skilled workers. Each figure is unique, with different facial expressions and clothing, offering a window into the magnificence of the Qin Dynasty. It’s a place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Dylan: The Li River — A Painter’s Wonderland As a French artist I am fascinated by the graceful beauty of the Li River in Guilin. The river winds through limestone karsts, creating scenery that seems to have been from a Chinese painting. The reflections of the mountains on the calm water’s surface are charming. It’s a place that inspires quietness and creativity, a perfect spot to set up a painting stand and capture the essence (精髓) of China’s natural beauty. Clara: The Giant Pandas — A Success Story of Protecting Wildlife From an Australian environmental protector’s standpoint, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a light of hope. The sight of these cute pandas in their semi-wild environments is heartwarming. It’s incredible to see the efforts made to protect and breed (繁殖) these adorable creatures, which are not only a symbol of China but also evidence of global efforts to protect wildlife. It’s a place that reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect our planet’s biodiversity. 1. What do both Alice and Ben want to convey? A. A sense of wonder and respect for history. B. Admiration for ancient skilled workers C A serious concern about the war and peace. D. Regret for the long-lost soldiers. 2. What does Dylan think of the Li River? A. Its water is shallow enough for a cool bath. B. Mountains around it are the most attractive C. Its beauty might encourage painters’ inspiration D. Its popularity comes from ancient poems and paintings. 3. Why does the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding stand for hope? A. It appeals to people to resist pollution. B. It collects money for environmental protection. C. It contributes to better education globally. D. It raises people’s awareness of wildlife. B What will you do when one of the few bookstores in your neighborhood shuts down? If you’re Latanya DeVaughn, you will make a new and improved one! As a mom and writer, she had always dreamed of opening her own bookstore, so after watching another close its doors for good, she saw her chance. While Latanya said every neighborhood deserved a bookstore, actually making it happen simply wasn’t possible. What she came up with instead was to turn a bus into a bookmobile! With the help of her community, she raised money for her dream and, at the end of 2021, it came true! Bronx Bound Books rolled out in style as a bus with orange cube bookshelves. “People love the way it smells,” Latanya added. “One woman said the wood smell makes her feel like she’s at home.” Although the bookstore on wheels carries around 30,000 new and used books, it has more room than you might expect! Latanya also makes sure to prepare books with a variety of characters, so all readers can see themselves in the pages. Of course, her collection also features works of noted Black authors like James Baldwin and Alice Walker. “It’s meant to be that way,” she explained, “because I remember going to bookstores and having to look through books just to find someone I felt I could identify with.” Setting up her bookstore in a new spot each day, Latanya is doing her part to make sure that everyone in the neighborhood has books to read. That’s what Bronx Bound Books is for. “I can’t open up a bookstore on every corner, but I can probably pop up on tons of different corners,” she said. Thanks to Latanya and her Bronx Bound Books, the town is becoming a heaven for book lovers day by day. I’m sure that the little bookstore will continue to develop quickly! 4. How did Latanga DeVoughn respond to the shutdown of bookstores? A. She took over and reopened them soon. B. She set up her own special bookstore. C. She opened bookstores on every block. D. She called on neighbors to open a new one. 5. James Baldwin and Alice Walker are mentioned in paragraph 3 to show that________. A. it’s hard to store books with various characters. B. all readers can identify with Black authors. C. Latanya cares for individual readers’ need. D. Bronx Bound Books has limited room. 6. Why is Bronx Bound Books open? A. To recycle old books around the neighborhood. B. To raise money for Latanya DeVaughn’s dream. C. To make reading accessible to everyone in the neighborhood. D. To open up a bookstore on every comer across the world. 7. What does the author think of Bronx Bound Books? A. Alarming. B. Affordable. C. Creative. D. Promising. C Instant noodles are a favorite quick meal when people don’t want to cook. Picture eating them while watching TV on a stormy night — pure comfort! But many believe they’re just junk food that harms health. The truth is, whether they’re unhealthy depends entirely on how you prepare them. The main issue isn’t the noodles themselves, but the common way people make them: pouring boiling water over dried noodles and adding all the salty seasoning packets. These flavor packets contain high levels of salt and artificial additives (人工添加剂), making this version unbalanced and unhealthy. Actually, plain instant noodles aren’t terrible. They’re fried during production (which adds some oil and calories), but they fill you up well and provide quick energy when you’re hungry. To make them healthier, cook them properly: boil the noodles first, drain excess starchy (含有淀粉的) water, then use fresh water or broth (肉汤). Crucially, use only half the seasoning packet to reduce salt. Add vegetables like spinach or carrots and protein like an egg or tofu while cooking. This boosts vitamins and protein while cutting sodium (钠). This transforms them into a balanced meal! So, are instant noodles junk food? If prepared lazily with all the seasoning and no extras, yes. But when cooked with less seasoning plus veggies and protein, they become a decent occasional meal. Remember: the secret is variety. Enjoy them once or twice a week as part of a diverse diet, and they won’t harm your health. They’re far less scary than people think — just upgrade your cooking method! 8. What determines if instant noodles are unhealthy? A. Their quick cooking time. B. The time of eating. C. The preparation method. D. The junk food label. 9. What is the major cause of unhealthy instant noodles? A. The dried noodles. B. The flavor packets. C. Using boiling water. D. People avoiding cooking. 10. What is the main purpose of the third paragraph? A. Warn about health dangers. B. Give cooking instructions. C. Argue noodles are harmless. D. List harmful additives. 11. What is the suitable title for the passage? A Instant Noodles: Not All Waste. B. Instant Noodles: How to Cook? C. Instant Noodles: Eat Sometimes. D. Instant Noodles: What we know? D California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor (因素). The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent. Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources (资源). But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development. The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt (融雪). Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season. 12.

Mr. Smith praised her for the great work. After Mrs. Smith had pressed the money into her hand, Anna didn’t even look at the money and then walked out of the house. She’d expected ten dollars. Now she saw that it was a one-hundred-dollar bill! Anna imagined her parents’ faces when she handed them the one hundred dollars. Things hadn’t been easy for Anna’s family since Anna’s dad had lost his engineering job a year ago. There had been no new clothes or movies in the last year. They no longer went out to eat on Fridays. Anna didn’t really mind, as long as her family was together. But now she could help. One hundred dollars! That was enough to fill the car with gas or to buy a bag of groceries. Her excitement faded as she wondered if Mrs. Smith realized how much money she had given her. Could she have made a mistake? Anna felt bad as she remembered that Mrs. Smith had simply pulled the money from her purse without looking at it. Anna thought, “Maybe Mrs. Smith meant to give me the one-hundred-dollar bill. Baby-sitting three children is a lot of work.” Soon Anna remembered that the Smiths didn’t seem to have much money, either. But, she silently argued with herself. “They gave me the money. I didn’t steal it.” She found her parents in the living room. Anna took a deep breath and told them what had happened. “I wanted to give the money to you to help out the family, but I think Mrs. Smith made a mistake.” She continued. “I’m going to give it back to her.” Dad settled his big hand on her shoulder. “You just gave us the best gift, Anna.” Mom kissed her. “We’re proud of you, sweetheart.” 注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右: 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Anna went to Mrs. Smith’s house again. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Smith opened her purse and counted out ten dollars. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
