(该公园毗邻一家电影制片厂，游客可以参观制片厂，在那里可以看到《世界大战》《金刚》等多部著名电影的拍摄场景。)”可知，游客在好莱坞环球影城可以参观制片厂。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Disneyland Park部分“The amusement facilities are rich and diverse, suitable for the whole family.(游乐设施丰富多样，适合全家人游玩。)”以及Lego land California部分 “It is built with 60 million Lego bricks and suitable for the whole family.(它由 6000 万块乐高积木建成，适合全家人游玩。)”可知，迪士尼乐园和加州乐高乐园的共同点是适合全家游玩。故选C项。 When industrial engineer Abel Cruz was a boy, his weekly work was to struggle through a rocky valley in the foothills of the Peruvian Andes to fetch the family’s water from a spring. “It was downhill from the house, far away and rough,” he recalls. This challenging task left a lasting impression on Cruz, who began dreaming up innovative ways to collect water more efficiently. He observed that the special plants have evolved to capture rain and must with their broad and wide leaves. This observation sparked the inspiration for a revolutionary idea: a fog net. Over the years, Cruz has improved this concept and eventually shared it with communities around the world. The fog net consists of vertical sections, each covering an area of about 215 square feet. As fog comes from the Pacific Ocean, micro drops of water concentrate on the net and then drip down into collection tanks below. Remarkably, a single net can gather between 50 and 100 gallons of water per day! In joint efforts with the Creating Water Foundation, Cruz has fixed over 3,600 of these nets on the bare hillsides surrounding Lima, Peru. This initiative has been crucial in providing a sustainable water source for the city, which is home to more than 9 million residents. Lima experiences minimal rainfall and struggles with frequent water shortages, making Cruz’s work more critical. “The planet has less and less fresh water,” Cruz emphasizes, highlighting the importance of his work. “Glaciers, which act as natural resources, are disappearing, so we must find innovative ways to accumulate and save water for periods of drought.” His efforts not only change lives but also emphasize the urgent need for sustainable solutions in a world facing increasing water shortage. 4. Why is Cruz’s childhood experience of fetching water mentioned? A. To show what a tough boy Cruz was. B. To explain his motivation for innovation. C. To recall his terrible sufferings in the past. D. To prove how short water was in his hometown. 5. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The wide spread of Cruz’s concept. B. The significance of observing nature. C. The working principle of Cruz’s innovation. D. The source of the water collected in the net. 6. What function does Cruz’s innovation serve? A. To capture rain and mist. B. To draw fog from the Pacific. C. To collect tiny drops of water. D. To occupy the bare hillsides. 7. What can we infer about Cruz from the last paragraph? A. He overlooks the need to immediately conserve water. B. He believes technology can solve all water-related issues. C. He thinks that water shortage is just a temporary problem. D. He is firmly determined to find ways against water shortage. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了工业工程师Abel Cruz受童年取水经历启发，发明雾网收集水，为缺水的秘鲁利马市提供可持续水源。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“When industrial engineer Abel Cruz was a boy, his weekly work was to struggle through a rocky valley in the foothills of the Peruvian Andes to fetch the family’s water from a spring.(当工业工程师阿贝尔·克鲁兹还是个孩子的时候，他每周的工作就是艰难地穿过秘鲁安第斯山脉山麓的一个岩石山谷，从一个泉里取家里的水)”和“This challenging task left a lasting impression on Cruz, who began dreaming up innovative ways to collect water more efficiently. (这项具有挑战性的任务给克鲁兹留下了深刻的印象，他开始想出更有效地收集水的创新方法)”可知，Cruz童年取水的经历让他开始思考创新取水方法，这经历解释了他创新的动机。故选B项。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“The fog net consists of vertical sections, each covering an area of about 215 square feet. As fog comes from the Pacific Ocean, micro drops of water concentrate on the net and then drip down into collection tanks below.

(当雾气从太平洋飘来时，微小的水滴聚集在网上，然后滴落到下面的收集罐中)”可知，Cruz的发明雾网的功能是收集微小的水滴。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘The planet has less and less fresh water,’ Cruz emphasizes, highlighting the importance of his work. ‘Glaciers, which act as natural resources, are disappearing, so we must find innovative ways to accumulate and save water for periods of drought.’ (“地球上的淡水越来越少，”克鲁兹强调说，突出了他工作的重要性。“作为自然资源的冰川正在消失，所以我们必须找到创新的方法来积累和储存水，以应对干旱时期。”)”可推知，Cruz意识到缺水问题的严重性，坚定地要寻找应对缺水的方法。故选D项。 Actor Alicia Silverstone worried fans on social media recently. While on a trip to England, she posted a TikTok video of herself tasting a kind of poisonous berries she found along a sidewalk. Silverstone, who appeared in the 1995 movie Clueless, said she thought the fruit was a tomato. But when she bit into it and found that it had an unusual taste, she realized that it was not the common food. Plant expert, Jessica Damiano, recently wrote about poisonous plants that look like common foods for the Associated Press. She said the fruit that looked like a tomato appears to have been a Jerusalem cherry. Often sold as a houseplant, all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous.The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says the plant is not only harmful to humans but also to dogs, cats and horses.Eating large amounts can be deadly. Silverstone was lucky because she did not swallow the berries. She was also lucky because the berries were reddish orange, which meant they were ripe. While all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous, the plant’s unripe berries can be especially dangerous. They can cause problems with the central nervous and gastrointestinal (肠胃的) systems. The Jerusalem cherry is not the only toxic plant that looks like a safe one. The poisonous Carolina horsenettle fruit also looks like a tomato. It is also known as devil’s potato to add to the confusion.The Virginia creeper fruit also looks like blueberries, and it can be deadly if eaten.Wild parsnip has flowers like a carrot and leaves like parsley (欧芹). Simply touching it can cause a skin problem. Creeping buttercup looks like flat-leaf parsley. It can cause severe stomach pain,vomiting (呕吐) and heart problems. And Canadian moonseed can be confused with wild grape. However, its taste is so bitter that you would likely spit it out before swallowing it. This is a good thing because eating it can lead to death. If you think you have swallowed a toxic plant by mistake, contact a poison control center in your area or your doctor immediately. There is additional information on the website poison.org. Damiano advises using common sense with plants you find in the wild. If you are not completely sure that something is food, do not eat it. 8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To present the author’s argument. B. To introduce the topic of the article. C. To raise the public’s attention of wild plants. D. To popularize the knowledge of medical science. 9. Why was Silverstone thought to be fortunate? A. The berries she had a bite were ripe. B. She found the fruit she ate was a tomato. C. She had a good knowledge of wild plants. D. The amount of the berries she consumed was large. 10. According to the description,what plants can be most harmful to people? A. Carolina horsenettle and wild parsnip. B. Virginia creeper and creeping buttercup. C. Wild parsnip and Canadian moonseed. D. Canadian moonseed and Virginia creeper. 11. What may be the suitable measure if someone mistakenly swallows a poisonous plant? A. Spitting it out as quickly as possible. B. Making an appointment with their doctor. C. Getting in touch with the local authority instantly. D. Searching for the relevant information on the Internet. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了误食有毒植物的风险及可能混淆的植物。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Actor Alicia Silverstone worried fans on social media recently.While on a trip to England, she posted a TikTok video of herself tasting a kind of poisonous berries she found along a sidewalk. Silverstone, who appeared in the 1995 movie Clueless , said she thought the fruit was a tomato. But when she bit into it and found that it had an unusual taste, she realized that it was not the common food.(演员艾丽西亚·西尔弗斯通最近在社交媒体上让粉丝们感到担忧。在英国旅行期间，她发布了一段TikTok视频，视频中她品尝了在人行道上发现的一种有毒浆果。Silverstone曾出演1995年的电影《独领风骚》，她说她认为这种水果是番茄。但当她咬了一口，发现它有一种不同寻常的味道时，她意识到这不是普通的食物)”以及第二段“Plant expert, Jessica Damiano, recently wrote about poisonous plants that look like common foods for the Associated Press. She said the fruit that looked like a tomato appears to have been a Jerusalem cherry.(植物专家Jessica Damiano最近为美联社写了一篇关于看起来像普通食物的有毒植物的文章。她说，看起来像番茄的水果似乎是耶路撒冷樱桃)”可推知，第一段介绍了Silverstone与毒莓的事件，旨在引入文章主题，即谈论有毒植物与看似无害植物的相似性。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Silverstone was lucky because she did not swallow the berries. She was also lucky because the berries were reddish orange, which meant they were ripe. While all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous, the plant’s unripe berries can be especially dangerous.(Silverstone很幸运，因为她没有吞下那些浆果。她也很幸运，因为那些浆果是红橙色的，这意味着它们已经成熟了。虽然夹竹桃的所有部分都有毒，但这种植物的未成熟浆果尤其危险)”可知，Silverstone幸运是因为浆果已经成熟，所以毒性就变小了。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“The poisonous Carolina horsenettle fruit also looks like a tomato. It is also known as devil’s potato to add to the confusion.The Virginia creeper fruit also looks like blueberries, and it can be deadly if eaten.Wild parsnip has flowers like a carrot and leaves like parsley (欧芹). Simply touching it can cause a skin problem.Creeping buttercup looks like flat-leaf parsley. It can cause severe stomach pain,vomiting (呕吐) and heart problems. And Canadian moonseed can be confused with wild grape. However, its taste is so bitter that you would likely spit it out before swallowing it. This is a good thing because eating it can lead to death.(有毒的卡罗莱纳马铃薯茄果实看起来像番茄。它也被称作魔鬼土豆，增加了辨认的难度。弗吉尼亚爬山虎的果实看起来像蓝莓，如果食用的话可能是致命的。野生欧防风有像胡萝卜的花和像欧芹的叶子。仅仅是接触它就会引起皮肤问题。匍匐黄水仙看起来像扁叶欧芹。它会引起剧烈的胃痛、呕吐和心脏问题。加拿大月籽藤容易被误认为是野生葡萄。然而，它的味道非常苦，你会在吞咽之前把它吐出来。这是件好事，因为食用它会导致死亡)”可知，弗吉尼亚爬山虎和加拿大月籽藤都有可能致命。由此可推知，这两种植物会对人类造成最大的伤害。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“If you think you have swallowed a toxic plant by mistake, contact a poison control center in your area or your doctor immediately. There is additional information on the website poison.org(如果你认为自己误吞了有毒植物，请立即联系你所在地区的毒物控制中心或医生。网站poison.org上有更多信息)”可知，如果有人误吞有毒植物，最适合的措施是立即联系当地权威机构。故选C。 Most of us are familiar with Groundhog Day, wherein a large groundhog checks to see its shadow on February 2 and helps to predict when winter will end. But have you ever heard about how a mountain town in North Carolina uses a caterpillar (毛毛虫) known as the Woolly Worm to make similar predictions? According to the folklore (民间传说), the amount of black on the woolly worm in autumn predicts the severity of the upcoming winter. The longer the woolly worm’s black bands (带) are, the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the winter will be. Similarly, a wider middle brown band is associated with a milder upcoming winter. The position of the longest dark bands supposedly indicates which part of winter will be coldest or hardest. If the head end of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold. In addition, the woolly worm caterpillar has 13 segments to its body, which traditional forecasters say correspond to the 13 weeks of winter. Scientific studies on worm forecasting are few and far between. The most often cited is a small trial that American Museum of Natural History entomologist Howard Curran conducted in 1948. Having heard about the caterpillar folklore, Curran traveled to Bear Mountain State Park to collect woolly worms each fall for eight years. He found that if the worms had brown markings on more than a third of their body, winters tended to be milder. Most scientists discount the folklore of caterpillar predictions as just a folklore. “It’s a wonderful story, but I do think it was a playful trial,” says Joe Boggs, an entomologist at Ohio State University Extension who has studied woolly worms. “Curran was a real scientist. He had a bunch of papers published, but he never published this one—probably because he knew it wouldn’t stand up to peer review.” Mike Peters, an entomologist at the University of Massachusetts, doesn’t disagree, but he says there could be a link between the band of a woolly worm and the severity of winter. Peters suggests that the timing of their growth and environmental conditions, such as temperature, moisture levels, and food sources, can impact the appearance of woolly worms, including their size, coloration, and band patterns. By analyzing these characteristics, researchers can potentially infer information about the weather conditions. “The band does say something about a heavy winter,” he says. “The only thing is that it’s telling you about the previous year.” 12. How do people predict the weather through woolly worms? A. By analyzing their living habits. B. By measuring the change of their size. C. By studying color bands on their bodies. D. By calculating the number of their segments. 13. What is Howard Curran’s finding based on? A. A survey on the locals. B. His personal observations. C Studies by previous scientists. D. Statistics collected by the museum. 14. What does the underlined word “discount” in paragraph 4 mean? A. consider. B. believe. C. doubt. D. dismiss. 15. Which statement might Mike Peters agree with? A. The caterpillar forecasting needs long-term data to support it. B. The color band of caterpillars can be a mirror of past weather. C. The cold environment has a great impact on caterpillars’ growth. D. Woolly worms can help predict the severity of winter accurately. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讨论了“毛毛虫是否能”预测“冬季天气?”的问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“According to the folklore (民间传说), the amount of black on the woolly worm in autumn predicts the severity of the upcoming winter. The longer the woolly worm’s black bands (带) are, the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the winter will be. Similarly, a wider middle brown band is associated with a milder upcoming winter. The position of the longest dark bands supposedly indicates which part of winter will be coldest or hardest. If the head end of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold. In addition, the woolly worm caterpillar has 13 segments to its body, which traditional forecasters say correspond to the 13 weeks of winter.(根据民间传说，秋天毛茸茸的虫子身上的黑色数量预示着即将到来的冬天的严重程度。毛茸茸的蠕虫的黑色带越长，冬天就越长、越冷、越多雪，也就越严酷。同样，较宽的中间棕色带与即将到来的温和冬季有关。据推测，最长的暗带的位置表明冬天的哪个部分将是最冷或最硬的。如果毛毛虫的头端是黑色的，冬天的开始将是严重的。如果尾巴末端是黑色的，冬天结束时就会很冷。此外，毛虫的身体有13节，传统的预报员说，这与冬季的13周相对应)”可知，人们是通过研究毛毛虫身上的颜色来预测天气的。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Having heard about the caterpillar folklore, Curran traveled to Bear Mountain State Park to collect woolly worms each fall for eight years. He found that if the worms had brown markings on more than a third of their body, winters tended to be milder.(听说了毛毛虫的民间传说，柯伦每年秋天都去熊山州立公园收集毛茸茸的蠕虫，持续了八年。他发现，如果这些蠕虫身上有超过三分之一的褐色斑纹，冬天就会比较温和)”可知，Curran的发现是基于他自己的观察。故选B。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后文“It’s a wonderful story, but I do think it was a playful trial(这是一个精彩的故事，但我确实认为这是一个有趣的试验)”可知，Joe Boggs表示这确实是一个精彩的故事，但不是一个严肃的试验。说明大多数科学家没有考虑毛毛虫预言的民间传说，故划线词意思是“不予考虑; 对……不屑一提”。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Mike Peters, an entomologist at the University of Massachusetts, doesn’t disagree, but he says there could be a link between the band of a woolly worm and the severity of winter. Peters suggests that the timing of their growth and environmental conditions, such as temperature, moisture levels, and food sources, can impact the appearance of woolly worms, including their size, coloration, and band patterns. By analyzing these characteristics, researchers can potentially infer information about the weather conditions. “The band does say something about a heavy winter,” he says. “The only thing is that it’s telling you about the previous year.”(马萨诸塞州大学的昆虫学家迈克·彼得斯并不反对这种说法，但他表示，毛茸茸的蠕虫和严冬之间可能存在联系。彼得斯认为，它们的生长时间和环境条件，如温度、湿度水平和食物来源，都会影响毛茸茸的蠕虫的外观，包括它们的大小、颜色和条纹图案。通过分析这些特征，研究人员可以潜在地推断出有关天气状况的信息。他说：“色带确实表达了一些关于严冬的东西。唯一的问题是，它会告诉你前一年的情况。”)”可推知，Mike Peters认为毛毛虫身上的色带可以反映过去的天气情况。故选B。 Always the outsider? One of the things I used to fear was being the new girl in the office — in the kitchen making coffee while the in-crowd chatted about the weekend. I worried that I wasn’t good enough or smart enough. ___16___ I’d struggle for words while trying to look cool.

What fears are you projecting onto yourself? ●Practice self-acceptance. Remind yourself that it’s OK to have a different way of operating in the world. ●___20___ Sometimes, interactions with random strangers can help us feel more confident in all our relationships. For example, volunteering can make us feel connected and give us a sense of belonging. A. Don’t charge into friendships, though. B. Start noticing your patterns of mentality. C. If I was asked a question, panic would set in. D. No one can make you feel lower without your agreement. E. The feeling of being an outsider would force me to shut up. F.

An alert garbage man noticed the bag moving and used a metal rake (耙子) to tear open the bag to look inside. There was my shaking puppy dog. The rake damaged the nerves in his back so he limped a little, but he could run as fast as lightning. For my dog’s first birthday, I entered him in a fun run sponsored by our local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA). I’m not much of a runner, but the run was only 3 kilometers, so I thought it would be fun for both of us. We practiced for weeks. On our practice runs, he was always eager to go and usually dragged me along behind him. I worked on his leash (拴狗链) manners so that he wouldn’t trip me on the big day. I felt we were ready for anything. The fun run was downtown among the big buildings, so the noise of barking dogs all around us rose to a deafening pitch at the start of the race. My dog was frightened when the starting tone went off. He had trouble running in the right direction with all the confusion around us. Soon the runners began to thin out, and my dog was running straight and fast. We were passing people and making great time. I was dreaming of a gold-medal finish. However, when we were six blocks from the finish, my dog suddenly stopped and dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes. I almost dislocated my shoulder from the sudden stop as I was pulled backward by the leash. He was lying flat on his belly with his head down in the middle of the crossroads. At first I thought something bad had happened to him. He was shaking and sobbing. I did a quick check and couldn’t see anything wrong. I tried to get him up, but he refused. The police officer doing traffic control impatiently signed me to move away so he could release the cars. 注意： 1.续写词数应150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 But I couldn’t get my seventy-five-pound dog to get up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Another half-block of carrying him brought the answer—a moving garbage truck. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】But I couldn’t get my seventy-five-pound dog to get up. The harder I tried to scoop him up from the pavement, the more he fought me. The officer yelling and cars honking, I pulled him with all my might, but in vain. Finally, I got my arm under him and lifted him up in a fireman’s carry, throwing him over my shoulder. As I staggered to the roadside, people around were taking my dog’s side, laughing I was running him too hard. I was fuming. My dog would run all day long and he wasn’t the least bit tired. Another half-block of carrying him brought the answer — a moving garbage truck. Its sound must have hit my dog’s sensitive ears, so he cried louder and clawed at my back as we drew closer to it. I held on tighter and ran as fast as I could to get my sweet baby dog away from that scary garbage truck. I ran with him on my shoulder until I felt him relaxed, and then I set him down. He wagged his tail in gratitude for saving him from the garbage truck. Surely, we didn’t win any medals, but I won his trust forever. 【解析】 【导语】文章以作者和狗狗的故事为线索展开，讲述作者收养了一条被抛弃在路边垃圾车边的小狗，在狗一岁时报名参加了“快乐奔跑”比赛。比赛期间路边垃圾车的声音让狗狗回忆起被抛弃时的场景造成心理恐惧而不敢前行，最终作者得知了狗狗不跑的原因，帮助狗狗一起跑向终点。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“但我无法让我那只七十五磅重的狗起来。”可知，第一段可描写作者听到警察的驱赶后，试图让狗狗从地上站起来继续比赛，但是用尽方法都不成功。路人也开始责怪作者把狗狗逼得太紧。最终作者只能扛起狗狗，跑向终点。 ②由第二段首句内容“在扛它走过半个街区后找到了答案——一辆正在行驶的垃圾车。”可知，第二段可描写作者明白了狗狗弃赛的原因后，试图安慰狗狗，直到它放松下来。最后作者和狗狗一起跑到了终点虽然没有获得任何奖项，但是最终作者获得了狗狗的信任。 2.续写线索：帮狗站起来——失败——扛狗狗——知晓原因——安慰——获得信任 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抱起：scoop up /pick up ②蹒跚：stagger/totter ③靠近：draw closer to /approach 情绪类 ①生气：fume/angry/annoyed ②感激：gratitude /appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1]The harder I tried to scoop him up from the pavement, the more he fought me.（运用了“the+比较级，the+比较级”句型） [高分句型2]The officer yelling and cars honking, I pulled him with all my might, but in vain.（运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型3]As I staggered to the roadside, people around were taking my dog’s side, laughing I was running him too hard.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句以及现在分词作伴随状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $Jenny is really hot in here.

When industrial engineer Abel Cruz was a boy, his weekly work was to struggle through a rocky valley in the foothills of the Peruvian Andes to fetch the family’s water from a spring. “It was downhill from the house, far away and rough,” he recalls. This challenging task left a lasting impression on Cruz, who began dreaming up innovative ways to collect water more efficiently. He observed that the special plants have evolved to capture rain and must with their broad and wide leaves. This observation sparked the inspiration for a revolutionary idea: a fog net. Over the years, Cruz has improved this concept and eventually shared it with communities around the world. The fog net consists of vertical sections, each covering an area of about 215 square feet. As fog comes from the Pacific Ocean, micro drops of water concentrate on the net and then drip down into collection tanks below. Remarkably, a single net can gather between 50 and 100 gallons of water per day! In joint efforts with the Creating Water Foundation, Cruz has fixed over 3,600 of these nets on the bare hillsides surrounding Lima, Peru. This initiative has been crucial in providing a sustainable water source for the city, which is home to more than 9 million residents. Lima experiences minimal rainfall and struggles with frequent water shortages, making Cruz’s work more critical. “The planet has less and less fresh water,” Cruz emphasizes, highlighting the importance of his work. “Glaciers, which act as natural resources, are disappearing, so we must find innovative ways to accumulate and save water for periods of drought.” His efforts not only change lives but also emphasize the urgent need for sustainable solutions in a world facing increasing water shortage. 4. Why is Cruz’s childhood experience of fetching water mentioned? A. To show what a tough boy Cruz was. B. To explain his motivation for innovation. C. To recall his terrible sufferings in the past. D. To prove how short water was in his hometown. 5. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The wide spread of Cruz’s concept. B. The significance of observing nature. C. The working principle of Cruz’s innovation. D. The source of the water collected in the net. 6. What function does Cruz’s innovation serve? A. To capture rain and mist. B. To draw fog from the Pacific. C. To collect tiny drops of water. D. To occupy the bare hillsides. 7. What can we infer about Cruz from the last paragraph? A. He overlooks the need to immediately conserve water. B. He believes technology can solve all water-related issues. C. He thinks that water shortage is just a temporary problem. D. He is firmly determined to find ways against water shortage. Actor Alicia Silverstone worried fans on social media recently. While on a trip to England, she posted a TikTok video of herself tasting a kind of poisonous berries she found along a sidewalk. Silverstone, who appeared in the 1995 movie Clueless, said she thought the fruit was a tomato. But when she bit into it and found that it had an unusual taste, she realized that it was not the common food. Plant expert, Jessica Damiano, recently wrote about poisonous plants that look like common foods for the Associated Press. She said the fruit that looked like a tomato appears to have been a Jerusalem cherry. Often sold as a houseplant, all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous.The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says the plant is not only harmful to humans but also to dogs, cats and horses.Eating large amounts can be deadly. Silverstone was lucky because she did not swallow the berries. She was also lucky because the berries were reddish orange, which meant they were ripe. While all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous, the plant’s unripe berries can be especially dangerous. They can cause problems with the central nervous and gastrointestinal (肠胃的) systems. The Jerusalem cherry is not the only toxic plant that looks like a safe one. The poisonous Carolina horsenettle fruit also looks like a tomato. It is also known as devil’s potato to add to the confusion.The Virginia creeper fruit also looks like blueberries, and it can be deadly if eaten.Wild parsnip has flowers like a carrot and leaves like parsley (欧芹). Simply touching it can cause a skin problem. Creeping buttercup looks like flat-leaf parsley. It can cause severe stomach pain,vomiting (呕吐) and heart problems. And Canadian moonseed can be confused with wild grape. However, its taste is so bitter that you would likely spit it out before swallowing it. This is a good thing because eating it can lead to death. If you think you have swallowed a toxic plant by mistake, contact a poison control center in your area or your doctor immediately. There is additional information on the website poison.org. Damiano advises using common sense with plants you find in the wild. If you are not completely sure that something is food, do not eat it. 8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To present the author’s argument. B. To introduce the topic of the article. C. To raise the public’s attention of wild plants. D. To popularize the knowledge of medical science. 9. Why was Silverstone thought to be fortunate? A. The berries she had a bite were ripe. B. She found the fruit she ate was a tomato. C. She had a good knowledge of wild plants. D. The amount of the berries she consumed was large. 10. According to the description,what plants can be most harmful to people? A. Carolina horsenettle and wild parsnip. B. Virginia creeper and creeping buttercup. C. Wild parsnip and Canadian moonseed. D. Canadian moonseed and Virginia creeper. 11 What may be the suitable measure if someone mistakenly swallows a poisonous plant? A. Spitting it out as quickly as possible. B. Making an appointment with their doctor. C. Getting in touch with the local authority instantly. D. Searching for the relevant information on the Internet. Most of us are familiar with Groundhog Day wherein a large groundhog checks to see its shadow on February 2 and helps to predict when winter will end. But have you ever heard about how a mountain town in North Carolina uses a caterpillar (毛毛虫) known as the Woolly Worm to make similar predictions? According to the folklore (民间传说), the amount of black on the woolly worm in autumn predicts the severity of the upcoming winter. The longer the woolly worm’s black bands (带) are, the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the winter will be. Similarly, a wider middle brown band is associated with a milder upcoming winter. The position of the longest dark bands supposedly indicates which part of winter will be coldest or hardest. If the head end of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold. In addition, the woolly worm caterpillar has 13 segments to its body, which traditional forecasters say correspond to the 13 weeks of winter. Scientific studies on worm forecasting are few and far between. The most often cited is a small trial that American Museum of Natural History entomologist Howard Curran conducted in 1948. Having heard about the caterpillar folklore, Curran traveled to Bear Mountain State Park to collect woolly worms each fall for eight years. He found that if the worms had brown markings on more than a third of their body, winters tended to be milder. Most scientists discount the folklore of caterpillar predictions as just a folklore. “It’s a wonderful story, but I do think it was a playful trial,” says Joe Boggs, an entomologist at Ohio State University Extension who has studied woolly worms. “Curran was a real scientist. He had a bunch of papers published, but he never published this one—probably because he knew it wouldn’t stand up to peer review.” Mike Peters an entomologist at the University of Massachusetts, doesn’t disagree, but he says there could be a link between the band of a woolly worm and the severity of winter. Peters suggests that the timing of their growth and environmental conditions, such as temperature, moisture levels, and food sources, can impact the appearance of woolly worms, including their size, coloration, and band patterns. By analyzing these characteristics, researchers can potentially infer information about the weather conditions. “The band does say something about a heavy winter,” he says. “The only thing is that it’s telling you about the previous year.” 12. How do people predict the weather through woolly worms? A. By analyzing their living habits. B. By measuring the change of their size. C. By studying color bands on their bodies. D. By calculating the number of their segments. 13. What is Howard Curran’s finding based on? A. A survey on the locals. B. His personal observations. C. Studies by previous scientists. D. Statistics collected by the museum. 14. What does the underlined word “discount” in paragraph 4 mean? A. consider. B. believe. C. doubt. D. dismiss. 15. Which statement might Mike Peters agree with? A. The caterpillar forecasting needs long-term data to support it. B. The color band of caterpillars can be a mirror of past weather. C. The cold environment has a great impact on caterpillars’ growth. D. Woolly worms can help predict the severity of winter accurately. Always the outsider?

What fears are you projecting onto yourself? ●Practice self-acceptance.

If I was asked a question, panic would set in. D. No one can make you feel lower without your agreement. E. The feeling of being an outsider would force me to shut up. F.

An alert garbage man noticed the bag moving and used a metal rake (耙子) to tear open the bag to look inside. There was my shaking puppy dog. The rake damaged the nerves in his back so he limped a little, but he could run as fast as lightning. For my dog’s first birthday, I entered him in a fun run sponsored by our local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA). I’m not much of a runner, but the run was only 3 kilometers, so I thought it would be fun for both of us. We practiced for weeks. On our practice runs, he was always eager to go and usually dragged me along behind him. I worked on his leash (拴狗链) manners so that he wouldn’t trip me on the big day. I felt we were ready for anything. The fun run was downtown among the big buildings, so the noise of barking dogs all around us rose to a deafening pitch at the start of the race. My dog was frightened when the starting tone went off. He had trouble running in the right direction with all the confusion around us. Soon the runners began to thin out, and my dog was running straight and fast. We were passing people and making great time. I was dreaming of a gold-medal finish. However, when we were six blocks from the finish, my dog suddenly stopped and dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes. I almost dislocated my shoulder from the sudden stop as I was pulled backward by the leash. He was lying flat on his belly with his head down in the middle of the crossroads. At first I thought something bad had happened to him. He was shaking and sobbing. I did a quick check and couldn’t see anything wrong. I tried to get him up, but he refused. The police officer doing traffic control impatiently signed me to move away so he could release the cars. 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。 But I couldn’t get my seventy-five-pound dog to get up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Another half-block of carrying him brought the answer—a moving garbage truck. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $Welcome to the flower store.
