So I took out a wide-mouthed mug (大杯) and placed the stub into it, gave it a little water, and placed it by the window. On a snowy morning, I noticed the first sign. A first small leaf from its heart spread out. A tiny green flag of hope. Beaten, but not defeated. Within days, it was impossible to see the cuts where I had removed the leaves. The growth was explosive. And when I lifted the blossoming head out of the mug, tiny root threads fell down, seeking for the earth. What is growing here? Lettuce or hope? If I were a lettuce in a similar condition, I’d want to doubtfully assess where I found myself before being devoted to full growth. Yet for this lettuce, my inadequate offering of water and a place by a window was enough for it to decide to reclaim itself again. It grew in a mug of water, in faith. This is the heart of this lettuce: alive, strong and fearless. It deserved a name. I decided to call it Monty. Monty wanted to grow, as we all do. I think I gave him a little love and freedom. Those two ingredients were all he needed to return to himself. I see joy in this lettuce. The return to self is always an expression of joy, which is life itself. With the right ingredients, this is the tendency of all living things. Monty still lives in a mug, but I’m going to transplant him outside. He deserves to become his full self. The only problem I see now is my capacity to support Monty. I hope I have enough of a green finger. I’m surprised to find myself where I am. Maybe Monty is, too. I have the same choice as he does: give in, or start again. The prospect of starting again is discouraging. But my lettuce-friend, Monty, leads the way. I can only hope to be as brave. 4. Why did the author put the stub in water? A. To hope that it would grow. B. To decorate the nice mug. C. To play a game. D. To remove his bad mood. 5. What is the first sign of life in the author’s eyes? A. The remaining stub. B. The small leaf. C. The disappearing cuts. D. The tiny root threads. 6. How would the author feel if in the lettuce’s situation? A. Hesitant. B. Fearless. C. Confident. D. Annoyed. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Enjoy your own life to the fullest B. Believe in yourself when in trouble C. Never be afraid to restart yourself D. Give freedom to the heart in a way 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者将生菜残余部分放在水中，生菜努力生长的故事。故事启发作者要勇于重新开始。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I was cutting up lettuce(生菜) in the kitchen when I suddenly remembered watching a video about putting the lettuce stub(残余部分) in water to grow a whole new vegetable. So I took out a wide-mouthed mug(大杯) and placed the stub into it, gave it a little water, and placed it by the window. (我正在厨房切莴苣，突然想起看过一个视频，讲的是把生菜残余部分放在水里种出一种全新的蔬菜。于是我拿出一个宽口马克杯，把烟头放进去，浇了一点水，放在窗边。)”可知，作者把生菜残余部分放进杯子里是希望它能生长。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“On a snowy morning, I noticed the first sign. A first small leaf from its heart spread out. A tiny green flag of hope. (在一个下雪的早晨，我注意到了第一个迹象。从在它中心冒出来第一片小叶子。一面小小的充满希望的绿色旗子。)”可知，作者眼里的生命的第一个迹象是一片小叶子。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“If I were a lettuce in a similar condition, I’d want to doubtfully assess where I found myself before being devoted to full growth. (如果我是一棵处于类似状况的生菜，我会在全身心投入到全面成长之前，怀疑地评估一下自己所处的位置。)”可知，作者如果是一棵处于类似状况的生菜，会怀疑自己的状况，会感到犹豫。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据最后一段中“I have the same choice as he does: give in, or start again. The prospect of starting again is discouraging. But my lettuce-friend, Monty, leads the way. I can only hope to be as brave. (我和他有同样的选择：要么放弃，要么重新开始。重新开始的前景令人沮丧。但是我的生菜朋友Monty在前面带路。我只希望能像你一样勇敢。)”可知，本文主要讲述了作者将生菜残余部分放在水中，生菜努力生长的故事。故事启发作者要勇于重新开始。C“永远不要害怕重新开始自己”符合主题，故选C项。 C Coral reefs(珊瑚礁) are a unique ocean ecosystem consisting of rocky structures mainly formed by coral animals and some other ocean life. Despite only covering 0. 2 percent of the ocean floor, coral reefs support at least 25 percent of marine species, as well as providing food and economic security for hundreds of millions of people. However, coral reefs across the world are under threat. Warmer oceans can cause the coral bleaching(漂白). It happens when the corals lose colored algae(海藻) living in their bodies and turn completely white. Without the algae, the corals lose their main food source and can die. In addition, as oceans become more acidic(酸性的) from absorbing CO₂, corals in acidic conditions become weak in forming reefs. In 2021, the United Nations reported a 14 percent loss of corals across the world largely from rising sea temperatures in the previous 13 years. Australia declared mass bleaching events in 2022 across large parts of the Great Barrier Reef, four times since 2016. Data from the Philippines showed higher than usual ocean temperatures between 2015 and 2017 had caused a serious three-year bleaching events in reefs across the planet. Scientists have been cooperating to see how coral reefs can be protected. Thankfully they find those coral reefs in the hot parts of the globe are the worst affected. They contain corals with better heat resistance. So their research focus on finding genes(基因) for heat tolerance so that they can be passed on to future generations. Biologists also mix corals that are more resilient to higher temperatures with those that are not and the resulting generation has a better chance of survival. Ultimately, scientists add that without a serious decline in greenhouse gas, 99 percent of the world’s coral reefs will be gone by the end of the century. There is a limit to how quickly corals can adapt warm climate, but if temperatures rise rapidly, then extinction is certain. 8. Which is the main threat to coral reefs? A. Declining ocean acidification. B. Loss of colored algae. C. Increasing sea temperatures. D. Lack of food source. 9. What do we know from paragraph 3? A. No actions are taken to protect coral reefs. B. Coral bleaching is the worst in Australia. C. Coral reefs have grown rapidly for years. D. Coral reefs receive impacts globally. 10 What can be the basic way to protect coral reefs? A. Reducing greenhouse gas emission. B. Transplanting them to the hot parts. C. Relying on genes science. D. Limiting their spread. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Where Are Coral Reefs Spread? B. How Can Coral Reefs Survive? C. Coral Reefs, A New Threat To Ocean Life D. Coral Reefs, A Busy Underwater Community 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了珊瑚礁的重要性，以及目前面临气温上升的危险处境，强调了减少温室气体的排放的必要性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“ However, coral reefs across the world are under threat. Warmer oceans can cause the coral bleaching.”（然而，世界各地的珊瑚礁正受到威胁。海洋变暖会导致珊瑚漂白。）可知海洋温度上升是珊瑚礁的主要威胁。故选C项。 【9题详解】 段落大意题。根据第三段中“ In 2021, the United Nations reported a 14 percent loss of corals across the world largely from rising sea temperatures in the previous 13 years.”（2021 年，联合国报告称，全球珊瑚减少了 14%，主要原因是过去 13 年海水温度上升。）以及“ Data from the Philippines showed higher than usual ocean temperatures between 2015 and 2017 had caused a serious three-year bleaching events in reefs across the planet.”（来自菲律宾的数据显示，2015年至2017年期间海洋温度高于平常，导致全球珊瑚礁发生了长达三年的严重白化事件。）可知第三段主要讲述的是珊瑚礁受到的影响是全球性的。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“ Ultimately, scientists add that without a serious decline in greenhouse gas, 99 percent of the world’s coral reefs will be gone by the end of the century.”（最终，科学家补充说，如果温室气体排放量不大幅减少，到本世纪末，世界上 99% 的珊瑚礁将消失。）可推知减少温室气体的排放是保护珊瑚礁的根本办法。故选A项。 【11题详解】 标题归纳题。根据第二段中“ However, coral reefs across the world are under threat. Warmer oceans can cause the coral bleaching.”（然而，世界各地的珊瑚礁正受到威胁。海洋变暖会导致珊瑚漂白。）以及最后一段中“There is a limit to how quickly corals can adapt warm climate, but if temperatures rise rapidly, then extinction is certain.”（珊瑚礁适应温暖气候的速度是有限的，但如果温度迅速上升，那么灭绝是肯定的。）并结合全文理解可知，这篇文章讲述了珊瑚礁的现状和处境，只有减少温室气体排放才可以让珊瑚存活。B项How Can Coral Reefs Survive?（如何让珊瑚礁存活？）符合主旨。故选B项。 【点睛】 D Recently, I accidentally found a set of Hanfu I only wore once from the bottom of the cupboard. I remember buying them simply to match the ancient-style hair accessories (配饰) a friend gave me. It occurred to me that I had been trapped in the “birdcage effect”. “Birdcage effect” means that when you get an item one day, you will prepare more things to match it. Weeks ago, I was in the company of friends engaged in shopping. One said that she wanted to buy a good writing pen to match the delicate notebook that her sister gave her, so that she would fall in love with taking notes on reading, and thus love reading, not just reading. I joked that she must have fallen for the “birdcage effect”. But the friend said with a smile: “Why not use the ‘birdcage effect’ instead?” For the first time, I heard that the “birdcage effect” can be used in reverse (逆向). However, this can’t help but remind me of middle school, and I seem to have used the “birdcage effect”. Passing by a bookstore one day, I purchased a magazine and saw the call for contributions published in the magazine, so I started writing with eager hands, and then I fell in love with writing. After shopping with my friends that time, I began to proceed to use the “birdcage effect”. I bought a small fresh tablecloth to decorate my desk, and a beautiful notebook to record my inspiration. When everything was ready, I started writing again. But how can we get rid of the “birdcage effect” in many things, and even use the “birdcage effect” in the opposite way? Various “birdcages” unavoidably appear in life, but we can distinguish them. If it is not in line with the actual situation, it is a “negative birdcage”, then we must learn to stop losses in time and maintain a heart of abandonment and separation. If it is a “positive birdcage” that motivates us to develop upward, we can clarify our goals, shop or decorate appropriately, and motivate ourselves to move towards our goals. At this time, you will find that the “birdcage effect” is actually not so terrible! 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The application of the “birdcage effect” in life. B. The necessity of using the “birdcage effect” in life. C. The turning point of the author’s idea on the “birdcage effect”. D. The author’s conflict with her friend over the “birdcage effect”. 13. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning her middle school experience? A. To recall her delightful days at school. B. To explain the reason for her love with writing. C. To confirm the positive of the “birdcage effect”. D. To prove her knowledge of the “birdcage effect”. 14. How can we make use of the “birdcage effect” positively? A. By realizing this effect has two sides. B. By promoting our personal consumption. C. By recognizing this effect is not so terrible. D. By guiding our acts to go with reasonable goals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Getting Rid of the Birdcage Effect Confidently B Motivating Ourselves to Move Towards Our Goals C. The Birdcage Effect: Influence on Consumer Behavior D. The Birdcage Effect: How to Use It to Your Advantage 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者对“鸟笼效应”的理解和看法，以及如何利用这一效应来激励自己朝着目标前进。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段““Birdcage effect” means that when you get an item one day, you will prepare more things to match it. Weeks ago, I was in the company of friends engaged in shopping. One said that she wanted to buy a good writing pen to match the delicate notebook that her sister gave her, so that she would fall in love with taking notes on reading, and thus love reading, not just reading. I joked that she must have fallen for the “birdcage effect”. But the friend said with a smile: “Why not use the ‘birdcage effect’ instead?”(“鸟笼效应”指的是当你某天得到一件物品时，你会添置更多东西去搭配它。几周前，我和朋友们一起逛街。其中一位朋友说，她想买一支好用的钢笔，来搭配姐姐送她的精致笔记本，这样她就能爱上做读书笔记，进而爱上阅读，而不只是单纯地读书。我开玩笑说她肯定是中了“鸟笼效应”的圈套。但这位朋友却笑着说：“那何不反过来利用‘鸟笼效应’呢？”)”可知，第二段主要讲的是作者对“鸟笼效应”看法的转折点。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, this can’t help but remind me of middle school, and I seem to have used the “birdcage effect”. Passing by a bookstore one day, I purchased a magazine and saw the call for contributions published in the magazine, so I started writing with eager hands, and then I fell in love with writing.(不过，这不禁让我想起了中学时代，我似乎运用了“鸟笼效应”。有一天路过一家书店，我买了一本杂志，看到杂志上刊登的征稿启事，我就开始急切地开始写作，从此我就爱上了写作)”可知，作者运用了“鸟笼效应”的结果是自己爱上了写作，这是“鸟笼效应”给作者带来的积极影响，由此可推知，作者提到她的中学经历的是为了证实“鸟笼效应”的积极作用。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“If it is a “positive birdcage” that motivates us to develop upward, we can clarify our goals, shop or decorate appropriately, and motivate ourselves to move towards our goals.(如果是一个激励我们向上发展的“积极的鸟笼”，我们可以明确自己的目标，适当地购物或装饰，激励自己朝着目标前进。)”可知，我们可以通过引导我们的行为与合理的目标相一致来积极利用“鸟笼效应”。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中““Birdcage effect” means that when you get an item one day, you will prepare more things to match it. (“鸟笼效应”是指当你有一天得到一件物品时，你会准备更多的东西来搭配它。)”，第三段中“For the first time, I heard that the “birdcage effect” can be used in reverse (逆向). (第一次听说“鸟笼效应”可以反向使用)”和最后一段“But how can we get rid of the “birdcage effect” in many things, and even use the “birdcage effect” in the opposite way? Various “birdcages” unavoidably appear in life, but we can distinguish them. If it is not in line with the actual situation, it is a “negative birdcage”, then we must learn to stop losses in time and maintain a heart of abandonment and separation. If it is a “positive birdcage” that motivates us to develop upward, we can clarify our goals, shop or decorate appropriately, and motivate ourselves to move towards our goals. At this time, you will find that the “birdcage effect” is actually not so terrible!(但如何才能在很多事情上摆脱“鸟笼效应”，甚至反过来利用“鸟笼效应”呢？生活中难免会出现各种各样的“鸟笼”，但我们可以区分它们。如果不符合实际情况，就是“负面鸟笼”，那么我们就要学会及时止损，保持一颗抛弃、分离的心。如果是一个激励我们向上发展的“积极的鸟笼”，我们可以明确自己的目标，适当的购物或装饰，激励自己朝着目标前进。这时候你就会发现“鸟笼效应”其实并没有那么可怕！)”可知，文章主要介绍了“鸟笼效应”以及我们该如何在生活中恰当地利用它，D项“鸟笼效应：如何利用它来对你有利”适合作文章标题，故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Remember What You Read Reading is important.

Mike’s father had died two years before, so Sheila worked hard to provide for herself and Mike. One day, Mike saw four construction workers when he was on the way home with his mother. The men were repairing a portion of the road near Mike’s house. It was terribly hot, and Mike’s heart went out to the tired workers. That’s when Mike had an idea. He rushed inside, opened the fridge, and grabbed some bottles of lemonade (柠檬水) made by themselves. Then he hurried up to the workers. “Excuse me, sir,” he said in a loud voice. “You look very tired. Please have the lemonade. You will feel better!” The workers paused from their work and exchanged looks, smiling and delighted that the young boy was so kind to them. “Thank you very much, young man,” one of them replied as he accepted the lemonade. “It’s okay,” Mike said with a smile and then waved goodbye to them. From that day on, Mike brought lemonade or water to the workers every day. Soon enough, he became familiar with all of them. One day, when Mike went to offer them water, the workers observed he wasn’t as cheerful as before. They were worried and asked him why he seemed upset. Pouting (嘴) his lips, the boy replied, “My birthday is only two days away and my mother will be caught up with some work that day. We are new here, so I don’t have any friends. I will be alone.” The workers felt bad for Mike, thinking he didn’t deserve to be sad ever — particularly not on his special day-so they came up with a plan. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next day, the construction workers decided to wait for Sheila on her way to work. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mike’s birthday came and he was at home alone when suddenly the doorbell rang. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day, the construction workers decided to wait for Sheila on her way to work. When they walked to Sheila, she was confused. They explained everything to her, including how Mike would bring them water daily. Sheila was incredibly proud of her son and couldn’t believe he had been so kind to the workers. “Actually, we want to celebrate his birthday with him. We know he really doesn’t want to be left alone on his birthday. We hope you don’t mind,” the workers said. Sheila was more than grateful to them for being so thoughtful and kind to her son and she accepted their plan. Mike’s birthday came and he was at home alone when suddenly the doorbell rang. Mike wondered who it could be. When he opened the door, he was surprised to find a group of four men — construction workers — in front of him. “We’re here for your birthday, Mike!” When Mike, almost crying about being alone, saw the workers, his face lit up. Surprised and excited, he welcomed them to come in. The construction workers not only bought Mike a birthday cake, but also helped decorate the living room with balloons and a happy birthday banner. In the following time, they enjoyed the celebration to the fullest. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Mike和母亲Sheila因工作调动搬到新家，Mike的父亲两年前去世，Sheila努力工作抚养Mike。一天Mike看到修路工人在炎热天气下工作很辛苦，便每天给他们送柠檬水或水。后来工人发现Mike因生日当天母亲要工作且自己在新地方没朋友，担心生日会孤单而不开心，于是工人们想出了一个计划。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，建筑工人们决定在希拉上班的路上等她。”可知，第一段可描写工人们拦住Sheila，向她解释Mike每天给他们送水的事；工人们表达想为Mike庆祝生日，不想让他在生日孤单；Sheila对工人们的想法表示感激并接受计划 ②由第二段首句内容“迈克的生日到了，他独自在家，突然门铃响了”可知，第二段可描写Mike听到门铃响，开门看到工人很惊讶；工人表明来为他庆祝生日，Mike由难过变得惊喜，邀请他们进屋；工人带来生日蛋糕并帮忙装饰客厅，大家一起尽情庆祝生日。 2.续写线索：工人等Sheila解释情况——提出庆祝生日——Sheila感激并接受——门铃响 —— Mike看到工人惊讶——工人表明来意——Mike邀请进屋——一起庆祝生日 3.词汇激活 行为类 行为类： ①解释：explain/account for ②装饰：decorate/adorn ③欢迎：welcome/greet 情感类： ①感激：grateful/thankful ②惊喜：surprised/amazed ③开心：happy/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] They explained everything to her, including how Mike would bring them water daily.（运用了how引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] When Mike, almost crying about being alone, saw the workers, his face lit up.（运用了when 引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 阆中中学校2025秋高2024级期中学习质量检测 英语试题 （考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

B I was cutting up lettuce (生菜) in the kitchen when I suddenly remembered watching a video about putting the lettuce stub (残余部分) in water to grow a whole new vegetable. So I took out a wide-mouthed mug (大杯) and placed the stub into it, gave it a little water, and placed it by the window. On a snowy morning, I noticed the first sign. A first small leaf from its heart spread out. A tiny green flag of hope. Beaten, but not defeated. Within days, it was impossible to see the cuts where I had removed the leaves. The growth was explosive. And when I lifted the blossoming head out of the mug, tiny root threads fell down, seeking for the earth. What is growing here? Lettuce or hope? If I were a lettuce in a similar condition, I’d want to doubtfully assess where I found myself before being devoted to full growth. Yet for this lettuce, my inadequate offering of water and a place by a window was enough for it to decide to reclaim itself again. It grew in a mug of water, in faith. This is the heart of this lettuce: alive, strong and fearless. It deserved a name. I decided to call it Monty. Monty wanted to grow, as we all do. I think I gave him a little love and freedom. Those two ingredients were all he needed to return to himself. I see joy in this lettuce. The return to self is always an expression of joy, which is life itself. With the right ingredients, this is the tendency of all living things. Monty still lives in a mug, but I’m going to transplant him outside. He deserves to become his full self. The only problem I see now is my capacity to support Monty. I hope I have enough of a green finger. I’m surprised to find myself where I am. Maybe Monty is, too. I have the same choice as he does: give in, or start again. The prospect of starting again is discouraging. But my lettuce-friend, Monty, leads the way. I can only hope to be as brave. 4. Why did the author put the stub in water? A. To hope that it would grow. B. To decorate the nice mug. C. To play a game. D. To remove his bad mood. 5. What is the first sign of life in the author’s eyes? A. The remaining stub. B. The small leaf. C. The disappearing cuts. D. The tiny root threads. 6. How would the author feel if in the lettuce’s situation? A. Hesitant. B. Fearless. C. Confident. D. Annoyed. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Enjoy your own life to the fullest B. Believe in yourself when in trouble C. Never be afraid to restart yourself D. Give freedom to the heart in a way C Coral reefs(珊瑚礁) are a unique ocean ecosystem consisting of rocky structures mainly formed by coral animals and some other ocean life. Despite only covering 0. 2 percent of the ocean floor, coral reefs support at least 25 percent of marine species, as well as providing food and economic security for hundreds of millions of people. However, coral reefs across the world are under threat. Warmer oceans can cause the coral bleaching(漂白). It happens when the corals lose colored algae(海藻) living in their bodies and turn completely white. Without the algae, the corals lose their main food source and can die. In addition, as oceans become more acidic(酸性) from absorbing CO₂, corals in acidic conditions become weak in forming reefs. In 2021, the United Nations reported a 14 percent loss of corals across the world largely from rising sea temperatures in the previous 13 years. Australia declared mass bleaching events in 2022 across large parts of the Great Barrier Reef, four times since 2016. Data from the Philippines showed higher than usual ocean temperatures between 2015 and 2017 had caused a serious three-year bleaching events in reefs across the planet. Scientists have been cooperating to see how coral reefs can be protected. Thankfully, they find those coral reefs in the hot parts of the globe are the worst affected. They contain corals with better heat resistance. So their research focus on finding genes(基因) for heat tolerance so that they can be passed on to future generations. Biologists also mix corals that are more resilient to higher temperatures with those that are not and the resulting generation has a better chance of survival. Ultimately, scientists add that without a serious decline in greenhouse gas, 99 percent of the world’s coral reefs will be gone by the end of the century. There is a limit to how quickly corals can adapt warm climate, but if temperatures rise rapidly, then extinction is certain. 8. Which is the main threat to coral reefs? A. Declining ocean acidification. B. Loss of colored algae. C. Increasing sea temperatures. D. Lack of food source. 9. What do we know from paragraph 3? A. No actions are taken to protect coral reefs. B. Coral bleaching is the worst in Australia. C. Coral reefs have grown rapidly for years. D. Coral reefs receive impacts globally. 10. What can be the basic way to protect coral reefs? A. Reducing greenhouse gas emission. B. Transplanting them to the hot parts. C. Relying on genes science. D. Limiting their spread. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Where Are Coral Reefs Spread? B. How Can Coral Reefs Survive? C. Coral Reefs, A New Threat To Ocean Life D. Coral Reefs, A Busy Underwater Community D Recently, I accidentally found a set of Hanfu I only wore once from the bottom of the cupboard. I remember buying them simply to match the ancient-style hair accessories (配饰) a friend gave me. It occurred to me that I had been trapped in the “birdcage effect”. “Birdcage effect” means that when you get an item one day, you will prepare more things to match it. Weeks ago, I was in the company of friends engaged in shopping. One said that she wanted to buy a good writing pen to match the delicate notebook that her sister gave her, so that she would fall in love with taking notes on reading, and thus love reading, not just reading. I joked that she must have fallen for the “birdcage effect”. But the friend said with a smile: “Why not use the ‘birdcage effect’ instead?” For the first time, I heard that the “birdcage effect” can be used in reverse (逆向). However, this can’t help but remind me of middle school, and I seem to have used the “birdcage effect”. Passing by a bookstore one day, I purchased a magazine and saw the call for contributions published in the magazine, so I started writing with eager hands, and then I fell in love with writing. After shopping with my friends that time, I began to proceed to use the “birdcage effect”. I bought a small fresh tablecloth to decorate my desk, and a beautiful notebook to record my inspiration. When everything was ready, I started writing again. But how can we get rid of the “birdcage effect” in many things, and even use the “birdcage effect” in the opposite way? Various “birdcages” unavoidably appear in life, but we can distinguish them. If it is not in line with the actual situation, it is a “negative birdcage”, then we must learn to stop losses in time and maintain a heart of abandonment and separation. If it is a “positive birdcage” that motivates us to develop upward, we can clarify our goals, shop or decorate appropriately, and motivate ourselves to move towards our goals. At this time, you will find that the “birdcage effect” is actually not so terrible! 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The application of the “birdcage effect” in life. B. The necessity of using the “birdcage effect” in life. C. The turning point of the author’s idea on the “birdcage effect”. D. The author’s conflict with her friend over the “birdcage effect”. 13. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning her middle school experience? A. To recall her delightful days at school. B. To explain the reason for her love with writing. C. To confirm the positive of the “birdcage effect”. D. To prove her knowledge of the “birdcage effect”. 14. How can we make use of the “birdcage effect” positively? A. By realizing this effect has two sides. B. By promoting our personal consumption. C. By recognizing this effect is not so terrible. D. By guiding our acts to go with reasonable goals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Getting Rid of the Birdcage Effect Confidently B. Motivating Ourselves to Move Towards Our Goals C. The Birdcage Effect: Influence on Consumer Behavior D. The Birdcage Effect: How to Use It to Your Advantage 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Remember What You Read Reading is important.

Mike’s father had died two years before, so Sheila worked hard to provide for herself and Mike. One day, Mike saw four construction workers when he was on the way home with his mother. The men were repairing a portion of the road near Mike’s house. It was terribly hot, and Mike’s heart went out to the tired workers. That’s when Mike had an idea. He rushed inside, opened the fridge, and grabbed some bottles of lemonade (柠檬水) made by themselves. Then he hurried up to the workers. “Excuse me, sir,” he said in a loud voice. “You look very tired. Please have the lemonade. You will feel better!” The workers paused from their work and exchanged looks, smiling and delighted that the young boy was so kind to them. “Thank you very much, young man,” one of them replied as he accepted the lemonade. “It’s okay,” Mike said with a smile and then waved goodbye to them. From that day on, Mike brought lemonade or water to the workers every day. Soon enough, he became familiar with all of them. One day, when Mike went to offer them water, the workers observed he wasn’t as cheerful as before. They were worried and asked him why he seemed upset. Pouting (嘴) his lips, the boy replied, “My birthday is only two days away and my mother will be caught up with some work that day. We are new here, so I don’t have any friends. I will be alone.” The workers felt bad for Mike, thinking he didn’t deserve to be sad ever — particularly not on his special day-so they came up with a plan. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next day, the construction workers decided to wait for Sheila on her way to work. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mike’s birthday came and he was at home alone when suddenly the doorbell rang. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
