Some of the World Heritage Sites have been attracting tourists for hundreds of years and are as fascinating now as they were when they were first uncovered.
Cappadocia Turkey
Designated a World Heritage Site in 1985, Cappadocia is a place of flowing rock formations and stone-capped chimneys (狭缝) Consider taking one of the many hiking trails to get up close. Nearby, in the village of Uchisar are the ancient cave homes built by the people of the Bronze Age.
Borobudur, Indonesia
Borobudur is one of Indonesia’s most famous landmarks, included in the list of World Heritage Sites in 1991. Located on the island of Java, this massive temple complex was constructed in the 700s, but two to three hundred years later, it was abandoned, possibly due to volcanic eruptions in the area, and went relatively undisturbed for centuries. The site was uncovered in the 1800s and later restored.
Mesa Verde U.S.A.
Mesa Verde is home to some of the most well-preserved Indian ruins in North America. It has been on the list of World Heritage Sites since 1978. The most impressive sites are the cliff dwellings (住所) where the Ancestral Puebloans lived between the 12th century and the late 13th century. You can drive up to the top of the mesa to see pit houses and other ruins.
Petra, Jordan
Inscribed (在……上写) into the list of World Heritage Sites in 1985, this ancient capital city of the Nabataeans is a stone city with dwellings carved into sandstone walls. It has roots that trace back to as early as the 4th or 5th century B.C. Discovered in the early 1800s, it has been referred to as “the rose city” for the color of the rock. Situated in a mountainous area with limited access, it held a strategic position on the trade route in the region: Today, Petra is the most important tourist attraction in Jordan.
21. What can you enjoy in Cappadocia, Turkey?
A. Temple complexes. B. Cave homes.
C. Cliff dwellings. D. Rose-colored rocks.

Duncan Jurman became interested in butterflies when he was around 5 years old. He noticed a couple of caterpillars (毛虫) in his backyard and was attracted by the different ways that caterpillars can disguise (伪装) themselves to stay safe in potentially dangerous surroundings. From there, he started to learn more about caterpillars and butterflies.
Jurman believes that butterflies play a crucial role in our ecosystems. They’re very low on the food web, so they support a lot of different species that rely on them. They’re an indicator species for the health of the environment. Once they disappear, everything else is soon to follow.
Jurman’s goal is to transform the landscape of Florida’s Broward County by turning a weedy suburb into a lively butterfly reserve at a time when insect populations are decreasing quickly worldwide. Jurman believes that every flower planted is a potential home and source of food for caterpillars and butterflies. He eventually developed a butterfly-friendly garden in his backyard by researching the different plants that butterflies prefer. He has already raised and released more than 5,000 butterflies from his garden.
Jurman also launched the Bring Butterflies Back campaign to educate people about butterflies and invite them to join his cause of protecting butterflies. He said that a lot of people are surprised to learn that insects are declining at such an alarming rate, largely because the decline has been so gradual. This phenomenon helps to explain why people are unwilling to take meaningful actions to save the environment.
In 2018, Jurman helped to build a butterfly garden at his high school. The garden has had a regenerative effect on the surrounding environment-birds, native lizards, and other insects have returned in great numbers. Other schools have been inspired to start gardens. “I don’t know if we can ever reach the point that we were once at with butterflies, but I think that if everyone gets involved and starts their own garden, they can make their own impact,” Jurman said.
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. The food chain of insects. B. The competition between species.
C. The potential danger to butterflies. D. The vital role of butterflies in nature.
25. Why did Jurman create a butterfly-friendly garden?
A. To teach people about butterflies. B. To study butterflies’ favorite plants.
C. To increase the number of butterflies. D. To improve the beauty of his backyard.
26. Which shows the phenomenon mentioned in the text?
A. People’s unawareness of environmental changes.
B. The impact of human activities on insect habitats.
C. The rapid decline of butterfly populations worldwide.
D. The process of transforming natural landscapes into reserves.
27. What can be inferred from Jurman’s words in the last paragraph?
A. More gardens are built to increase the number of other insects.
B. Jurman is pessimistic about the future of the butterfly population.
C. It’s impossible to restore the butterfly population to their previous levels.
D. People’s joint efforts can have a great impact on the butterfly population.
C
Whether chasing the perfect body or working toward being as fast, strong or capable as possible, fitness cannot stand as an all-round solution for the challenges many of young people face. Especially because it often amplifies (放大) insecurities and limits personal growth, we need to reconsider how much we prioritize it in our lives.
Unhealthy and unrealistic expectations around the social value of physical fitness have long driven us to exercise and carry many harmful side effects. Focusing on exercising to improve physical appearance has been shown to quickly fall into anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. These issues have been significantly more prevalent for younger people than in the past, and have been primarily linked to the increased role of social media in how we sense ourselves compared to others. Worst of all, body dysmorphia (畸形恐惧症) is a deep psychological disorder that arises when people are aware of their flaws (缺陷) in their physical appearance and resolving those flaws.
As body dysmorphia continues to rise, awareness of its negative effects has spread rapidly. In order to develop better health and avoid eating disorders and anxiety, many are turning to new fitness movements focused on performance progress rather than improving physical traits. However, obsessing over improvement and results can often be as problematic as fixation on appearance. Attentiveness toward exercise goals and personal fitness often becomes obsessive, and worsens issues like anxiety and depression while risking overtraining.
Exercise has also been a more widely popular mode of response for young people to improve quality of life and resolve mental health issues. Though research has proven that fitness and exercise make us feel happier, add fulfillment to our lives and relieve stress, experts also caution that exercise cannot be a complete aid to the emotional, social and psychological challenges we face. We must be aware of this fact, and avoid always turning to exercise and fitness as the sole response to such challenges.
If we continue to let ourselves be driven by the belief that completed performance goals, a more capable body, or a slimmer figure are necessary to feel satisfaction in our lives, we will never be able to completely accept ourselves. Yet it is exactly this self-acceptance even if we have glaring issues — that is essential to lasting personal growth, long-term happiness and healthy relationships.
28. How does fitness affect young people according to Paragraph 1?
A. It can solve their life challenges. B. It helps reduce the cost of exercise
C. It improves their social relationships. D. It may make them feel more insecure.
29. What does Paragraph 2 mainly discuss?
A. Bad diet habits harm young people’s health. B. Exercise for looks brings harmful results.
C. Young people’s interest in training declines. D. Social media spreads the influence of fitness
30. How is the passage organized?
A. Claim — Reason — Warning — Conclusion B. Concept — Background — Comparison — Prediction
C. Question — Experiment — Data — result D. Description — Dialogue — Story — Ending
31. What can we know from the passage?
A. Self-acceptance serves as the foundation for well-being.
B. Fitness alone always ensures joy and success.
C. Training goals can remove all possible risks.
D. Modern youth care little about body image.
D
The increasing frequency of rocket launches is crowding the region of space closest to Earth, known as low-Earth orbit — a zone that is already peppered with tens of thousands of bits of decades-old hardware. Experts warn that the danger posed by all this space junk is rising sharply. In recent years, debris has fallen on countries across the globe. Aside from falling to Earth, objects may also smash into each other in orbit, generating even more debris (碎片). Scientists also point to the potential danger to commercial aviation, as well as the pollution caused by debris burning up in the atmosphere.
To tackle the growing problem, various strategies have been put forward for cleaning up low-Earth orbit. A Japanese company recently debuted a prototype for a kind of “space garbage truck” that it hopes can retrieve (取回) inactive satellites from orbit. A Swiss company cooperating with the European Space Agency is planning similar retrieval missions. Another solution, in the short term at least, is to boost objects to higher orbits, where they lead to less of a danger. In 2022, a Chinese mission boosted an inactive BeiDou navigation satellite into a higher and less crowded zone.
A longer-term solution would involve recycling such objects—and some of that recycling can happen in orbit, astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell says. “At some point we’re going to have to move from disposing of old satellites in the atmosphere to taking them to recycling stations where their parts get reused for new satellites, and we actually do some of the manufacturing (制造) in orbit.” Moriba Jah, a space scientist, calls this the “circular space economy”, and the European Space Agency suggests it can be achieved by 2050.
Another seemingly simple idea is to make satellites more durable. “The message that I keep trying to deliver to anybody who will listen is: We need to have fewer satellites with longer operational lifetimes,” says astronomer Samantha Lawler. “Anything that you can do to make your satellites last longer and to use fewer of them — that is the engineering challenge that we are now facing, and I don’t see anyone really taking that up.”
32. The word “peppered with” in the first paragraph probably means ______.
A. separated with B. protected with C. filled with D. cleaned of
33. What solution is mentioned as a short-term measure to deal with space junk?
A. Developing “space garbage trucks”. B. Launching objects to higher orbits.
C. Recycling old space objects. D. Reduce rocket launches.
34. What is Samantha Lawler’s suggestion about ______.
A. Potential application of satellites. B. Choice of new launching technology.
C. Possible direction for further cooperation D. Need to improve engineering.
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A The causes of space junk and its effects on earth.
B. Different strategies to solve the problem of crowded low-Earth orbit.
C. The development of space technology in different countries.
D. The importance of international cooperation in space exploration.

A young woman was waiting for her flight at an airport. She was leaving for London because she got a new job there. It was said that her new boss was a typical English gentleman — polite, modest, humorous and considerate. She was excited as well as a little nervous about her new life.
With several long hours before her flight, the woman hunted for a book in the airport shops, bought a packet of cookies and found a place to sit. She took out a book and started to read. Although she was absorbed in her book, she happened to see that the man sitting beside her, as bold as he could be, grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between them. Educated to be well-mannered, she tried to ignore it to avoid an argument. But to show that she was the owner, she started to take cookies from that bag too. Unfortunately, the man didn’t get that hint, since he didn’t stop grabbing the cookies.
“How annoying!” she thought. As the greedy cookie thief kept eating, the woman munched (用力咀嚼) some cookies and watched the clock.
She was getting angrier as the minutes went by, thinking, “If I weren’t so nice, I would blacken his eyes.” With each cookie she took, he took one, too; when only one was left, she wondered what he would do.
With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her a half, and ate the other. She grabbed it from him, glared at him and thought, “Oh, brother. This guy has some nerve and he is so rude! Why didn’t he even show any gratefulness?”
She had never known when she had been so angry, and sighed in relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate quickly, refusing to look back at the rude thief. She boarded the plane, sank in her seat, and looked for her book, which was almost complete.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

As she reached in her baggage, she gasped (喘气) with surprise.

Surprisingly, she found the man sitting just behind her.

Understanding the population size, structure and growth trends is crucial. For example, a city with rapidly increasing population such as dubai needs to plan for sufficient housing and schools, in contrast, in aging population like in tokyo calls for more nursing homes, senior friendly public spaces and accessible health care services. Another important factor in urban planning is sustainable transportation. In mid modern cities like london, the overreliance on private cars has LED the traffic jams and environmental pollution. To deal with this, more and more cities are investing in public transportation systems. However, simply building more public transportation isn't enough. We also need to improve the last mile problem. This refers to the difficulty of getting from the public transportation stop to the final destination solutions like bike sharing programs and the electric bike riddle are emerging to address this issue. Additionally, social facilities such as schools and public spaces are essential to enhance the quality of life for residents and contribute to the overall well being of the community. In conclusion, urban planning is a complex process that requires a comprehensive consideration of population, transportation and economic, environmental and social factors.

Some of the World Heritage Sites have been attracting tourists for hundreds of years and are as fascinating now as they were when they were first uncovered.
Cappadocia, Turkey
Designated a World Heritage Site in 1985, Cappadocia is a place of flowing rock formations and stone-capped chimneys (狭缝) Consider taking one of the many hiking trails to get up close. Nearby, in the village of Uchisar are the ancient cave homes built by the people of the Bronze Age.
Borobudur, Indonesia
Borobudur is one of Indonesia’s most famous landmarks, included in the list of World Heritage Sites in 1991. Located on the island of Java, this massive temple complex was constructed in the 700s, but two to three hundred years later, it was abandoned, possibly due to volcanic eruptions in the area, and went relatively undisturbed for centuries. The site was uncovered in the 1800s and later restored.
Mesa Verde, U.S.A.
Mesa Verde is home to some of the most well-preserved Indian ruins in North America. It has been on the list of World Heritage Sites since 1978.

Duncan Jurman became interested in butterflies when he was around 5 years old. He noticed a couple of caterpillars (毛虫) in his backyard and was attracted by the different ways that caterpillars can disguise (伪装) themselves to stay safe in potentially dangerous surroundings. From there, he started to learn more about caterpillars and butterflies.
Jurman believes that butterflies play a crucial role in our ecosystems. They’re very low on the food web, so they support a lot of different species that rely on them. They’re an indicator species for the health of the environment. Once they disappear, everything else is soon to follow.
Jurman’s goal is to transform the landscape of Florida’s Broward County by turning a weedy suburb into a lively butterfly reserve at a time when insect populations are decreasing quickly worldwide. Jurman believes that every flower planted is a potential home and source of food for caterpillars and butterflies. He eventually developed a butterfly-friendly garden in his backyard by researching the different plants that butterflies prefer. He has already raised and released more than 5,000 butterflies from his garden.
Jurman also launched the Bring Butterflies Back campaign to educate people about butterflies and invite them to join his cause of protecting butterflies. He said that a lot of people are surprised to learn that insects are declining at such an alarming rate, largely because the decline has been so gradual. This phenomenon helps to explain why people are unwilling to take meaningful actions to save the environment.
In 2018, Jurman helped to build a butterfly garden at his high school. The garden has had a regenerative effect on the surrounding environment-birds, native lizards, and other insects have returned in great numbers. Other schools have been inspired to start gardens. “I don’t know if we can ever reach the point that we were once at with butterflies, but I think that if everyone gets involved and starts their own garden, they can make their own impact,” Jurman said.
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. The food chain of insects. B. The competition between species.
C. The potential danger to butterflies. D. The vital role of butterflies in nature.
25. Why did Jurman create a butterfly-friendly garden?
A. To teach people about butterflies. B. To study butterflies’ favorite plants.
C. To increase the number of butterflies. D. To improve the beauty of his backyard.
26. Which shows the phenomenon mentioned in the text?
A. People’s unawareness of environmental changes.
B. The impact of human activities on insect habitats.
C. The rapid decline of butterfly populations worldwide.
D. The process of transforming natural landscapes into reserves.
27. What can be inferred from Jurman’s words in the last paragraph?
A. More gardens are built to increase the number of other insects.
B. Jurman is pessimistic about the future of the butterfly population.
C. It’s impossible to restore the butterfly population to their previous levels.
D. People’s joint efforts can have a great impact on the butterfly population.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Duncan Jurman从小对蝴蝶产生兴趣,并通过创建蝴蝶友好型花园、发起保护蝴蝶运动,努力增加蝴蝶数量并提高人们对环境保护的意识。
【24题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Jurman believes that butterflies play a crucial role in our ecosystems. They’re very low on the food web, so they support a lot of different species that rely on them. They’re an indicator species for the health of the environment. Once they disappear, everything else is soon to follow. (Jurman认为蝴蝶在我们的生态系统中扮演着关键角色。它们在食物链中处于很低的位置,因此它们支持许多依赖它们的不同物种。它们是环境健康的指示物种。一旦它们消失,其他物种也将很快随之消失)”可知,这一段主要讲述了蝴蝶在自然中的重要作用,故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Jurman believes that every flower planted is a potential home and source of food for caterpillars and butterflies. He eventually developed a butterfly-friendly garden in his backyard by researching the different plants that butterflies prefer. He has already raised and released more than 5,000 butterflies from his garden. (Jurman认为每一朵种植的花都是毛虫和蝴蝶的潜在栖息地和食物来源。他通过研究蝴蝶偏好的不同植物,在后院开发了一个蝴蝶友好型花园。他已经在花园中养育并释放了超过5000只蝴蝶)”可知,他创建蝴蝶友好型花园的目的是增加蝴蝶的数量,故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“He said that a lot of people are surprised to learn that insects are declining at such an alarming rate, largely because the decline has been so gradual. This phenomenon helps to explain why people are unwilling to take meaningful actions to save the environment. (他说,许多人惊讶地发现昆虫数量以如此惊人的速度下降,主要是因为这种下降是逐渐发生的。这种现象有助于解释为什么人们不愿意采取有意义的行动来拯救环境)”可知,文中提到的现象是人们对环境变化缺乏意识,故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I don’t know if we can ever reach the point that we were once at with butterflies, but I think that if everyone gets involved and starts their own garden, they can make their own impact (我不知道我们是否能够再次达到曾经的蝴蝶数量水平,但我认为如果每个人都能参与进来并开始自己的花园,他们可以产生自己的影响。)”可知,Jurman认为人们的共同努力可以对蝴蝶的数量产生重大影响,故选D项。
C
Whether chasing the perfect body or working toward being as fast, strong or capable as possible, fitness cannot stand as an all-round solution for the challenges many of young people face. Especially because it often amplifies (放大) insecurities and limits personal growth, we need to reconsider how much we prioritize it in our lives.
Unhealthy and unrealistic expectations around the social value of physical fitness have long driven us to exercise and carry many harmful side effects. Focusing on exercising to improve physical appearance has been shown to quickly fall into anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. These issues have been significantly more prevalent for younger people than in the past, and have been primarily linked to the increased role of social media in how we sense ourselves compared to others. Worst of all, body dysmorphia (畸形恐惧症) is a deep psychological disorder that arises when people are aware of their flaws (缺陷) in their physical appearance and resolving those flaws.
As body dysmorphia continues to rise, awareness of its negative effects has spread rapidly. In order to develop better health and avoid eating disorders and anxiety, many are turning to new fitness movements focused on performance progress rather than improving physical traits. However, obsessing over improvement and results can often be as problematic as fixation on appearance. Attentiveness toward exercise goals and personal fitness often becomes obsessive, and worsens issues like anxiety and depression while risking overtraining.
Exercise has also been a more widely popular mode of response for young people to improve quality of life and resolve mental health issues. Though research has proven that fitness and exercise make us feel happier, add fulfillment to our lives and relieve stress, experts also caution that exercise cannot be a complete aid to the emotional, social and psychological challenges we face. We must be aware of this fact, and avoid always turning to exercise and fitness as the sole response to such challenges.
If we continue to let ourselves be driven by the belief that completed performance goals, a more capable body, or a slimmer figure are necessary to feel satisfaction in our lives, we will never be able to completely accept ourselves. Yet it is exactly this self-acceptance even if we have glaring issues — that is essential to lasting personal growth, long-term happiness and healthy relationships.
28. How does fitness affect young people according to Paragraph 1?
A. It can solve their life challenges. B. It helps reduce the cost of exercise
C. It improves their social relationships. D. It may make them feel more insecure.
29. What does Paragraph 2 mainly discuss?
A. Bad diet habits harm young people’s health. B. Exercise for looks brings harmful results.
C. Young people’s interest in training declines. D. Social media spreads the influence of fitness
30. How is the passage organized?
A. Claim — Reason — Warning — Conclusion B. Concept — Background — Comparison — Prediction
C. Question — Experiment — Data — result D. Description — Dialogue — Story — Ending
31. What can we know from the passage?
A. Self-acceptance serves as the foundation for well-being.
B. Fitness alone always ensures joy and success.
C. Training goals can remove all possible risks.
D. Modern youth care little about body image.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出健身无法解决年轻人所有挑战,还可能放大不安全感,警示其不能作为应对心理问题的唯一手段,强调自我接纳对个人成长与幸福至关重要。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Especially because it often amplifies (放大) insecurities and limits personal growth, we need to reconsider how much we prioritize it in our lives.(尤其是因为它往往会加剧不安情绪,并限制个人的成长,所以我们需要重新审视我们在生活中对其的重视程度)”可知,健康状况可能会让年轻人感到更加不安。故选D。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Unhealthy and unrealistic expectations around the social value of physical fitness have long driven us to exercise and carry many harmful side effects.

【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Especially because it often amplifies (放大) insecurities and limits personal growth, we need to reconsider how much we prioritize it in our lives.(尤其是因为它往往会加剧不安情绪,并限制个人的成长,所以我们需要重新审视我们在生活中对其的重视程度)”可知,首段提出“健身不能解决年轻人所有挑战,还可能放大不安全感”的核心观点(Claim);第二、三段分析健身带来负面影响的原因(Reason),如为外貌健身的危害、过度关注健身目标的问题;第四段警示“健身不能作为应对心理等挑战的唯一手段”(Warning);末段总结“自我接纳对个人成长和幸福至关重要”(Conclusion),可知,文章结构是:声明—原因—警告—结论。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Yet it is exactly this self-acceptance even if we have glaring issues — that is essential to lasting personal growth, long-term happiness and healthy relationships.(然而,正是这种自我接纳(即便我们存在明显的缺陷)——这对于实现个人的长期成长、获得长久的幸福以及维持健康的人际关系而言,是至关重要的)”可知,自我接纳是实现幸福的基石。故选A。
D
The increasing frequency of rocket launches is crowding the region of space closest to Earth, known as low-Earth orbit — a zone that is already peppered with tens of thousands of bits of decades-old hardware. Experts warn that the danger posed by all this space junk is rising sharply. In recent years, debris has fallen on countries across the globe. Aside from falling to Earth, objects may also smash into each other in orbit, generating even more debris (碎片). Scientists also point to the potential danger to commercial aviation, as well as the pollution caused by debris burning up in the atmosphere.
To tackle the growing problem, various strategies have been put forward for cleaning up low-Earth orbit. A Japanese company recently debuted a prototype for a kind of “space garbage truck” that it hopes can retrieve (取回) inactive satellites from orbit. A Swiss company cooperating with the European Space Agency is planning similar retrieval missions. Another solution, in the short term at least, is to boost objects to higher orbits, where they lead to less of a danger. In 2022, a Chinese mission boosted an inactive BeiDou navigation satellite into a higher and less crowded zone.
A longer-term solution would involve recycling such objects—and some of that recycling can happen in orbit, astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell says. “At some point we’re going to have to move from disposing of old satellites in the atmosphere to taking them to recycling stations where their parts get reused for new satellites, and we actually do some of the manufacturing (制造) in orbit.” Moriba Jah, a space scientist, calls this the “circular space economy”, and the European Space Agency suggests it can be achieved by 2050.
Another seemingly simple idea is to make satellites more durable. “The message that I keep trying to deliver to anybody who will listen is: We need to have fewer satellites with longer operational lifetimes,” says astronomer Samantha Lawler. “Anything that you can do to make your satellites last longer and to use fewer of them — that is the engineering challenge that we are now facing, and I don’t see anyone really taking that up.”
32. The word “peppered with” in the first paragraph probably means ______.
A. separated with B. protected with C. filled with D. cleaned of
33. What solution is mentioned as a short-term measure to deal with space junk?
A. Developing “space garbage trucks”. B. Launching objects to higher orbits.
C. Recycling old space objects. D. Reduce rocket launches.
34. What is Samantha Lawler’s suggestion about ______.
A. Potential application of satellites. B. Choice of new launching technology.
C. Possible direction for further cooperation D. Need to improve engineering.
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The causes of space junk and its effects on earth.
B. Different strategies to solve the problem of crowded low-Earth orbit.
C. The development of space technology in different countries.
D. The importance of international cooperation in space exploration.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. B

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Another solution, in the short term at least, is to boost objects to higher orbits, where they lead to less of a danger.(至少在短期内,另一个解决方案是将物体推到更高的轨道,在那里它们造成的危险更小)”可知,“将物体发射到更高轨道”是文中提到的短期应对措施。故选B项。

【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,第一段提出“近地轨道拥挤、空间垃圾危险加剧”的问题;第二段介绍“太空垃圾车”“推至更高轨道”等短期解决方案;第三段提及“轨道回收利用”的长期方案;第四段建议“提高卫星耐用性”。全文核心围绕“解决近地轨道拥挤问题的不同策略”展开。故选B项。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A young woman was waiting for her flight at an airport. She was leaving for London because she got a new job there. It was said that her new boss was a typical English gentleman — polite, modest, humorous and considerate. She was excited as well as a little nervous about her new life.
With several long hours before her flight, the woman hunted for a book in the airport shops, bought a packet of cookies and found a place to sit. She took out a book and started to read. Although she was absorbed in her book, she happened to see that the man sitting beside her, as bold as he could be, grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between them. Educated to be well-mannered, she tried to ignore it to avoid an argument. But to show that she was the owner, she started to take cookies from that bag too. Unfortunately, the man didn’t get that hint, since he didn’t stop grabbing the cookies.
“How annoying!” she thought. As the greedy cookie thief kept eating, the woman munched (用力咀嚼) some cookies and watched the clock.
She was getting angrier as the minutes went by, thinking, “If I weren’t so nice, I would blacken his eyes.” With each cookie she took, he took one, too; when only one was left, she wondered what he would do.
With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her a half, and ate the other. She grabbed it from him, glared at him and thought, “Oh, brother. This guy has some nerve and he is so rude! Why didn’t he even show any gratefulness?”
She had never known when she had been so angry, and sighed in relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate quickly, refusing to look back at the rude thief. She boarded the plane, sank in her seat, and looked for her book, which was almost complete.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
As she reached in her baggage, she gasped (喘气) with surprise.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Surprisingly, she found the man sitting just behind her.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
As she reached in her baggage, she gasped (喘气) with surprise. She took it out carefully and was surprised to see her own packet of cookies. At that moment the woman was so ashamed that she covered her face with her wide-open mouth, and for an instant she blushed. The plane seemed to stop there rooted to the spot. “Why had I ridiculously considered him a cookie thief? I owe him a sincere apology,” she thought. Just as she was blank in her head, suddenly, a soft and clear voice, “Excuse me, Lady,” woke her up to the real world. Instinctively she glanced back to see who he was.
Paragraph 2:
Surprisingly, she found the man sitting right behind her. It was the man who, she thought, was rude and ate her cookies, smiling at her. She lowered a bit of her body shamefully, hesitated for a moment and introduced herself nervously. After further communication, she was surprised to find that the gentleman was her new boss in London. She was struck dead with embarrassment with her heart beating painfully fast and banging against her ribs. All the air seemed to be frozen, and she felt as if the whole world were watching her. Seeing her embarrassment and nervousness, the considerate boss patiently calmed her down and asked her to discuss her new job in advance. “What a coincidence! What an unforgivable mistake!” she thought.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,一位年轻女士正要飞往伦敦开始新的工作,登机前她在看书的时候却发现自己被邻座的先生“偷吃”了饼干。于是她也开始拿袋子里的饼干吃,想以此提醒这位先生不要“偷吃”。但经过多次试探后,这位先生并没有“收敛”,因此她认为这位先生非常没有礼貌并且粗鲁。终于到了登机时间,她厌弃地离开这个“小偷”先生,上了飞机。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“当她把手伸进行李时,她惊讶地倒吸了一口气。”可知,第一段可描写她意识到那位先生并没有偷吃自己的饼干,自己才是偷吃饼干的那个人,以及她内心羞愧的心理活动。
②由第二段首句内容“令人惊讶的是,她发现那个男人就坐在她后面。”可知,第二段可描写她和这位先生开始交谈,发现他就是自己的新老板,以及她内心尴尬紧张的心理活动。
2. 续写线索:倒吸一口气——意识到自己的错误——内心羞愧——发现男人坐在后面——开始交谈——内心尴尬紧张
3. 词汇激活
