There are several things to know before tourists visit. Give yourself plenty of time Georgia appears small on a map，leading some first-time visitors to assume it can be seen in just a few days.But due to a combination of mountainous situation and infrastructural (基础设施的) shortcomings，that’s not the case—travel times between regions are significant. Pack clothes for all climates The summer can be extremely hot in the lowlands，but as soon as you reach any height，let alone the High Caucasus themselves，the temperature falls fast and you’ll need a jacket，even in July. Keep an eye out for sheepdogs Sheepdogs in the Caucasus are raised to be fierce and can potentially be dangerous，so give them a wide distance when hiking in the mountains and carry a stick if possible. Don’t toast with beer Georgians only toast their enemies with beer，so make sure you have a glass of wine or chacha (the national drink) to hand if you’re lucky enough to attend a traditional Georgian feast or dinner party. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了格鲁吉亚的地理位置、气候特点、风俗习惯以及旅游注意事项。 1.Which behavior of the following is not suitable when in Georgia？ A.Taking enough clothes.

My brother and I made the two-hour hike one winter morning.As we came around the mountain，we saw lots of trees.We continued on and reached Wilfred’s home in an area surrounded by a wonder：a garden with peach and pear trees. I was amazed at what Wilfred had achieved，but he said most of the work was done by his father，Mr Pitso.I felt great admiration for Mr Pitso.He mentioned that he started planting peach trees 20 years earlier.At first，people were resentful，and several times others removed his trees because they felt it was unfair for him to have something they didn’t have. To solve the problem，Mr Pitso gave his trees away freely to his neighbors.He also organized tree-planting days at the primary school where he worked and started a tree-buying cooperative to get funds from the government.He showed people how they could make tree-growing profitable by selling fruit and firewood.In times of drought，although he was in his sixties，he carried buckets of water from the small stream to his trees. As we left，Mr Pitso told us that before he died，he hoped to see the barren (贫瘠的) valley around his home covered with trees.When faced with challenges in my life，I remember Mr Pitso’s dream.The poor primary school teacher living in the mountains of Lesotho gives me hope. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了在莱索托的山区，一位小学教师通过不懈的努力带动社区植树造林，以此保护自然环境的故事。 4.Why did the author decide to visit Wilfred’s home？ A.To help Wilfred plant peach trees. B.To get some firewood for the winter. C.To see Wilfred’s tree-planting efforts.

B.Annoyed. C.Careless. D.Helpless. 答案：B 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后“several times others removed his trees because they felt it was unfair for him to have something they didn’t have”可知，人们嫉妒Pitso先生所拥有的树，所以把树移走了，由此可推知，这些人的情绪和态度是不满的。所以画线词意为“不满的，恼怒的”，与B项意思相近。故选B。 6.Which of the following words can best describe Mr Pitso？ A.Caring and strong-willed. B.Demanding and high-spirited. C.Creative and self-centered. D.Determined and good-humored. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段“To solve the problem，Mr Pitso gave his trees away freely to his neighbors.”以及“In times of drought，although he was in his sixties，he carried buckets of water from the small stream to his trees.”可推知，这两件事体现了Pitso先生是一个乐于助人且意志坚强的人。故选A。 7.What is the main purpose of the author in writing the text？ A.To introduce the geography of Lesotho. B.To explain the importance of tree-planting. C.To discuss the challenges of teaching abroad. D.To share a hopeful story about protecting nature. 答案：D 解析：写作目的题。根据最后一段内容可知，本文讲述了Pitso通过植树保护自然环境的故事，由此可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是分享一个充满希望的保护自然的故事。故选D。 C 　　Scientists in Israel are creating a gene(基因) bank from the seeds(种子) of local wild crops，some of which have survived for thousands of years since the birth of agriculture. In a wood located between an industrial area and a new railroad under construction，scientist Alon Singer collected seeds from a number of recently discovered plants.They will be frozen and stored at the Israel Plant Gene Bank at the Volcani Institute，the national agricultural R&D center.Singer is combing the country along with other people in search of varieties of wheat，barley(大麦) and countless other wild crops so their genetic makeup can be saved and studied before they are lost due to climate change. “The plants here are very unique.They are the ancestors of many of the domesticated plants used today，” he said.Resilient(适应力强的) characteristics can be used to genetically change farmed crops so they better bear drought or disease.Sometimes，the scientists cannot reach the plant in time，and it gets destroyed by a new road before it can flower again. Tens of thousands of types of seeds are stored in the gene bank.It may be smaller than some collections elsewhere in the world，but the gene pool here is unique，coming from an area that was part of the Fertile Crescent region known as the birthplace of crop cultivation.“This is where agriculture started about 10，000 years ago，” said Einav Mayzlish-Gati，director of the gene bank.“Species that were domesticated here are still in the wild adapting along the years to changes in the environment.” The research has already been paying off.For example，the institute has engineered a variety of wheat with an ultra-short lifecycle.It may not be able to compete today，but it could be a lifeline in a hotter climate with reduced growing seasons. The World Bank warns that global agriculture is extremely weak in the face of climate change.Destructive effects，it said，are already being felt with hotter temperatures，more frequent extreme weather events，and invasive(入侵的) crops. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。以色列的一些研究人员通过搜集植物种子来做研究，并为将来的农业生产做准备。 8.What makes the gene pool in Israel unique？ A.Having resilient characteristics. B.Having the biggest number of crops. C.Having genes found nowhere in the wild. D.Having the ancestor plants of today’s crops. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The plants here are very unique...plants used today”以及第四段内容可知，在以色列建立的种子基因库的特别之处在于这里所收藏的植物有很多是现在仍在种植的农作物的原始祖先。 9.What does the author want to show by mentioning wheat with an ultra-short lifecycle？ A.Scientists have confidence in modern farming. B.Some seeds should be collected in advance. C.Scientists are preparing for the future. D.Today’s wheat isn’t very competitive. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“For example，the institute has engineered a variety of wheat with an ultra-short lifecycle...reduced growing seasons.”可推知，作者提到超短生命周期的小麦是为了说明科学家正在为未来做准备。 10.What is implied in the last paragraph？ A.Global agriculture is at risk from climate change. B.Climate change will affect every stage of our life. C.Invasive crops may benefit agriculture in the future. D.Scientists are making great efforts to reduce environmental effects. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，全球变暖会给农作物带来非常大的负面影响。 11.What would be the best title for the text？ A.Fighting Against Climate Change in Israel B.Studying Ancient Crops for Global Agriculture C.Creating Gene Pools Worldwide to Save the Poor D.Creating a Gene Bank for a Stronger Agriculture 答案：D 解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要围绕以色列的研究人员通过搜集植物种子来建立种子基因库展开，他们这么做是为了让农业能够更好地发展，故D项最适合作文章标题。 D (2025·河北省邢台市高二上期末) 　　Westside Farmers Market held its annual (每年的) College Night on Tuesday，Sept.3 to engage students with the summer market.This event allowed college students to explore local farming and small businesses.

One important thing to remember is that everyone has their own opinions.Their views are often influenced by their own experiences and emotions.　2　 For example，if someone says you’re not good at a sport just because you had one bad game，it doesn’t mean you’re actually bad at it. 　3　 If we base our self-respect entirely on what others say，we’ll be on an emotional roller coaster (过山车).Instead，we should focus on our inner sense of self.When we know our own value，we can better pay attention to the useful feedback (反馈) and ignore the unhelpful or mean-spirited comments. Moreover，some people tend to give their opinions without truly learning about the full story or understanding all the relevant details.They might hurriedly jump to conclusions based on incomplete information or hold biases (偏见) that cloud their judgment.That means，not all opinions are created equal.　4　 Another aspect is that we can learn from some types of feedback.Certain criticism holds the potential for personal growth if we approach it with the right attitude.　5　 Only in this way can it be used as stepping stones to better ourselves rather than let it bring us down. A.We also need to be aware of our own self-worth. B.It’s not easy to deal with all these different voices. C.So it’s important not to take every comment at face value. D.We should have a clear understanding of our own disadvantages. E.We can’t control how others react，but we can control what we say. F.What one person thinks might not be an exact reflection of who you are. G.We should reflect on the feedback carefully and see if there’s something to gain from it. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在日常生活中，我们会面对他人对我们的各种评价，并介绍了应如何正确对待这些评价。 1.答案：B 解析：上文“Their comments can range from praise to criticism，which have the power to significantly impact our feelings and self-perception (自我认知).”表明他人对我们的评价从赞扬到批评会极大影响我们的感受和自我认知，下文又举例“Some people might feel extremely happy when they receive praise，while others might be deeply hurt by critical words.”说明不同人面对赞扬和批评的不同感受，B项“处理所有这些不同的声音并不容易。”符合语境，承上启下，故选B。 2.答案：F 解析：上文“...everyone has their own opinions.Their views are often influenced by their own experiences and emotions.”指出每个人都有自己的观点，且受自身经历和情感的影响；下文“For example，if someone says you’re not good at a sport just because you had one bad game，it doesn’t mean you’re actually bad at it.”举例说明他人片面评价不能代表真实的我们，F项“一个人的想法可能并非准确反映你是谁。”承接上文论述，引出下文的例子，符合语境。故选F。 3.答案：A 解析：下文“Instead，we should focus on our inner sense of self.When we know our own value，we can better pay attention to the useful feedback (反馈)”表明我们应该关注内心的自我认知，强调要了解自身价值，A项“我们也需要意识到自己的自我价值。”概括下文内容，是本段的主旨句。故选A。 4.答案：C 解析：上文“Moreover，some people tend to...are created equal.”说明有些人在不了解全部情况或相关细节时就匆忙下结论，带着偏见，所以并非所有观点都一样有价值，不能轻信所有评论，C项 “所以不要只看表面意思就接受每一条评论，这很重要。”承接上文，符合语境。故选C。 5.答案：G 解析：上文“Certain criticism holds the potential for personal growth if we approach it with the right attitude.”表明某些批评若以正确态度对待，有个人成长的潜力；下文“Only in this way can it be used as stepping stones to better ourselves rather than let it bring us down.”表明只有这样才能利用批评提升自己而非被其打倒，G项“我们应该仔细思考这些反馈，看看是否能从中有所收获。”符合语境。故选G。 学生用书⬇第105页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
