Jessica Watkins is the first Black woman to live and work on the International Space Station (ISS). After a program at Sally Ride elementary School, young Jessica Watkins realized what she wanted to do when she grew up: study the geology (地质学) of other planets. Then, at 33 years old, Watkins trained for a mission to do just that.
This April, Watkins became the first Black woman to live and work on the ISS for an extended task. She arrived there onboard a SpaceX capsule (太空舱) and then would spend six months on the ISS as part of a program called Artemis, a multi-billion-dollar effort designed to return humans to the surface of the moon in 2025.
Watkins would cover a lot of ground on her mission: earth and space science, biological science and human research into things like the effects of long spaceflight for humans. Over the course of her six-month mission, Watkins would also observe and photograph geological changes on Earth. Before her journey, Watkins said she had done training on the systems of the International Space Station and how to fix anything if it isn’t working properly. She had also practiced walking in space by wearing a large white suit in an underwater ISS model that’s housed in a giant pool.
Watkins said the journey to space has wide-ranging significance on everything from medical research “with direct impacts (影响) into our daily lives,” to international cooperation. “We are all coming together to accomplish this really hard thing that none of us would be able to do on our own,” Watkins said, “I think that is just such a beautiful picture of what we can all do if we come together and put all of our resources and skill sets together.”
4. What was Jessica Watkins’ dream at school?
A. Researching the space. B. Starting a program about space.
C. Studying the geology of the earth. D. Living and working on the ISS.
5. What’s the purpose of Artemis?
A. To help Watkins realize her dream. B. To bring humans back to the moon.
C. To train Watkins to work on the ISS. D. To spend the multi-billion dollars properly.
6. How did Watkins prepare for her task?
A. She covered a lot of ground like space science.
B. She observed and photographed changes on Earth.
C. She learned how to fix anything that might go wrong.
D. She practiced walking in space by walking in a giant pool.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Watkins will finish her task on her own.
B. The journey to space is too hard to achieve.
C. Watkins thinks highly of the journey to space.
D. The cooperation of countries means little to the task.
C
For those who care about the future of elephants on the African continent the decision to allow the importation (进口) of elephant products is the right one. Although the controversy may still exist, allowing these imports is the very best thing we can do to save elephants.
Africa is an amazing place, and all those who visit the continent come away truly inspired by its endless beauty, its diverse people, and the remarkable wildlife. In some areas of the continent, however, the African elephant is in trouble. Driven largely by international ivory trade, illegal hunting has reduced the population of the elephants in some countries, especially those where well-regulated hunting has not been accepted. In other countries, where hunting has provided the incentive (激励) for protecting the herd, the population is healthy.
In Zimbabwe and Zambia, for example, government wildlife biologists have determined that hunting is a necessary part of their management plan, and have successfully carried out such programs to maintain a healthy population.
In addition to illegal hunting, elephants are seen by many residents as a trouble to crops, and in some cases, a dangerous threat to individuals and their families. These are the challenges elephants face every day.
In fact, when one understands how hunting contributes to preservation, just the opposite is true: allowing imports actually protects elephants.
Hunting provides the financial resources that allow game managers in Africa to carry out anti-poaching (反偷猎) programs, to protect elephant herds. Hunting dollars also provide a clear incentive for local residents to accept elephant preservation, instead of viewing them as direct competitors or a trouble. Having local residents on board is critical to elephant protection, and it is only with local help that illegal hunting can be stopped. In short, when well-regulated hunting is accepted, the full protection of elephants is possible.
8. Why is the African elephant in trouble in some countries?
A. They are losing their habitats. B. They are hunted for ivory.
C. They lack enough food and water. D. They are killed for meat and skin.
9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Some locals see elephants as a trouble to their lives.
B. Importing elephant products may threaten African elephants.
C. Elephant population has been decreasing in all African countries.
D. Hunting elephants is totally forbidden by Zimbabwe and Zambia governments.
10. What’s the author’s attitude toward well-regulated hunting elephants in Africa?
A. Uncertain. B. Critical. C. Favourable. D. Dissatisfied.
11. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. Travel guide. B. Foreign literature. C. Online post. D. A science report.
D
It isn’t just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can find awe (敬畏) in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.
In the study 52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the “awe group” were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked. “We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower, for example,” Sturm says. For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy (嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace (拥抱) their expanding world. However, people in the other group were less focused on the world around them. One participant wrote, “I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”
In addition, participants were asked to take selfies in the beginning, middle, and end of each walk. Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in which they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe, our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us,” Sturm says. “Awe affects our social relationships because it helps us to feel more connected with the world, universe, and other people.” Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the degrees of their smiles in the selfies, and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater positive emotions in general, including more joy and gratitude.”
Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.
12. What were participants in the “awe group” required to do in Paragraph 2?
A. To take a walk each week. B. To focus on their inner world.
C. To collect leaves after the rain. D. To explore with childlike curiosity.
13. What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?
A. Close-up images with wide smiles. B. More attention to themselves.
C. Merely the background scenery. D. Small figures with bigger smiles.
14. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Experiencing awe matters. B. More walks, more joy.
C. Exercises can benefit us. D. Awe comes with walking.
15. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness. B. Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone.
C. Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions. D. Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health.

On a cold winter day, Li Ming found an injured puppy on his way home from school. The puppy was curled (蜷缩) up beside a snow pile, shaking, with its hind leg seemingly hurt and its tiny body shaking from the cold. Li Ming bent down and gently touched the puppy’s head, noticing the fear and helplessness in its eyes. He felt a burst of sadness and knew he couldn’t leave the little creature there. Immediately, he took off his scarf (围巾), carefully covered the puppy, and held it in his arms.
“Don’t be afraid, I’ll help you,” Li Ming said softly, trying to comfort the shaking puppy. He decided to take the puppy home, even though he knew his parents might not agree to keep a pet. As he walked, he thought about how to convince his parents. “Maybe if I show them how much I care, they’ll understand,” he said to himself.
When he arrived home, Li Ming quietly carried the puppy to his room. He dried its body with a towel (毛巾), making sure to be extra gentle around the injured leg. Then, he found some old clothes and made a plain bed for the puppy in the corner of his room. The puppy seemed to relax a little, its shaking dying. Li Ming also gave it some water and a small piece of bread, which the puppy ate eagerly, wagging its tail (摇尾巴) weakly.
That night, Li Ming lay in bed, staring at the ceiling (天花板), filled with worry. He didn’t know how serious the puppy’s injury was or how his parents would react. He imagined different situations — some where his parents criticized him, others where they allowed him to keep the puppy. But no matter what, he knew he couldn’t give up this poor little life. As he dropped off to sleep, he dreamed of the puppy running happily in a sunny field, its tail wagging joyfully.
Para 1. The next morning, Li Ming woke up to find the puppy missing from its bed.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2. A few days later, the puppy’s condition gradually improved.

After a program at Sally Ride elementary School, young Jessica Watkins realized what she wanted to do when she grew up: study the geology (地质学) of other planets. Then, at 33 years old, Watkins trained for a mission to do just that.
This April Watkins became the first Black woman to live and work on the ISS for an extended task. She arrived there onboard a SpaceX capsule (太空舱) and then would spend six months on the ISS as part of a program called Artemis, a multi-billion-dollar effort designed to return humans to the surface of the moon in 2025.
Watkins would cover a lot of ground on her mission: earth and space science, biological science and human research into things like the effects of long spaceflight for humans. Over the course of her six-month mission, Watkins would also observe and photograph geological changes on Earth. Before her journey, Watkins said she had done training on the systems of the International Space Station and how to fix anything if it isn’t working properly. She had also practiced walking in space by wearing a large white suit in an underwater ISS model that’s housed in a giant pool.
Watkins said the journey to space has wide-ranging significance on everything from medical research “with direct impacts (影响) into our daily lives,” to international cooperation. “We are all coming together to accomplish this really hard thing that none of us would be able to do on our own,” Watkins said, “I think that is just such a beautiful picture of what we can all do if we come together and put all of our resources and skill sets together.”

For those who care about the future of elephants on the African continent, the decision to allow the importation (进口) of elephant products is the right one. Although the controversy may still exist, allowing these imports is the very best thing we can do to save elephants.
Africa is an amazing place, and all those who visit the continent come away truly inspired by its endless beauty, its diverse people, and the remarkable wildlife. In some areas of the continent, however, the African elephant is in trouble. Driven largely by international ivory trade, illegal hunting has reduced the population of the elephants in some countries, especially those where well-regulated hunting has not been accepted. In other countries, where hunting has provided the incentive (激励) for protecting the herd, the population is healthy.
In Zimbabwe and Zambia, for example, government wildlife biologists have determined that hunting is a necessary part of their management plan, and have successfully carried out such programs to maintain a healthy population.
In addition to illegal hunting, elephants are seen by many residents as a trouble to crops, and in some cases, a dangerous threat to individuals and their families. These are the challenges elephants face every day.
In fact, when one understands how hunting contributes to preservation, just the opposite is true: allowing imports actually protects elephants.
Hunting provides the financial resources that allow game managers in Africa to carry out anti-poaching (反偷猎) programs, to protect elephant herds. Hunting dollars also provide a clear incentive for local residents to accept elephant preservation, instead of viewing them as direct competitors or a trouble. Having local residents on board is critical to elephant protection, and it is only with local help that illegal hunting can be stopped. In short, when well-regulated hunting is accepted, the full protection of elephants is possible.
8. Why is the African elephant in trouble in some countries?
A. They are losing their habitats. B. They are hunted for ivory.
C. They lack enough food and water. D. They are killed for meat and skin.
9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Some locals see elephants as a trouble to their lives.
B. Importing elephant products may threaten African elephants.
C. Elephant population has been decreasing in all African countries.
D. Hunting elephants is totally forbidden by Zimbabwe and Zambia governments.
10. What’s the author’s attitude toward well-regulated hunting elephants in Africa?
A. Uncertain. B. Critical. C. Favourable. D. Dissatisfied.
11. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. Travel guide. B. Foreign literature. C. Online post. D. A science report.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述了作者认为允许进口大象制品、在非洲实施规范的大象狩猎行为,实则能为大象保护提供资金和当地居民的支持,是保护非洲大象的有效方式,反驳了对此行为的争议。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Driven largely by international ivory trade, illegal hunting has reduced the population of the elephants in some countries, especially those where well-regulated hunting has not been accepted.(在很大程度上受国际象牙贸易的驱使,非法捕猎已经使一些国家的大象数量减少,特别是在那些不接受规范狩猎的国家)”可知,非洲大象在一些国家陷入困境的原因是因象牙贸易引发的非法猎杀。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“In addition to illegal hunting, elephants are seen by many residents as a trouble to crops, and in some cases, a dangerous threat to individuals and their families.(除了非法捕猎之外,许多居民还将大象视为破坏庄稼的祸源,在某些情况下,大象还会对个人及其家庭构成危险威胁)”可知,一些当地人将大象视为生活中的麻烦。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段中的“In short, when well-regulated hunting is accepted, the full protection of elephants is possible.(简而言之,当规范的狩猎活动被认可时,全面保护大象是有可能的)”可推断,作者支持在非洲规范管理的猎象活动。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段“Hunting provides the financial resources that allow game managers in Africa to carry out anti-poaching programs, to protect elephant herds. Hunting dollars also provide a clear incentive for local residents to accept elephant preservation, instead of viewing them as direct competitors or a trouble. Having local residents on board is critical to elephant protection, and it is only with local help that illegal hunting can be stopped. In short, when well-regulated hunting is accepted, the full protection of elephants is possible.(狩猎提供了资金来源,使非洲的野生动物管理者能够开展反偷猎项目,以保护象群。狩猎所得的资金也为当地居民接受大象保护提供了明确的激励,让他们不再将大象视为直接的竞争对手或麻烦。获得当地居民的支持对于大象保护至关重要,只有在当地的帮助下,非法狩猎才能被制止。简而言之,当规范的狩猎活动得到认可时,全面保护大象才有可能)”可知,本文强调了在非洲实施规范的大象狩猎行为,可推断文章属于动物保护类热点话题,而非旅游,外国文学以及科学报道。故选C。
D
It isn’t just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can find awe (敬畏) in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.
In the study, 52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the “awe group” were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked. “We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower, for example,” Sturm says. For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy (嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace (拥抱) their expanding world. However, people in the other group were less focused on the world around them. One participant wrote, “I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”
In addition, participants were asked to take selfies in the beginning, middle, and end of each walk. Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in which they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe, our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us,” Sturm says. “Awe affects our social relationships because it helps us to feel more connected with the world, universe, and other people.” Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the degrees of their smiles in the selfies, and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater positive emotions in general, including more joy and gratitude.”
Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.
12. What were participants in the “awe group” required to do in Paragraph 2?
A. To take a walk each week. B. To focus on their inner world.
C. To collect leaves after the rain. D. To explore with childlike curiosity.
13. What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?
A. Close-up images with wide smiles. B. More attention to themselves.
C. Merely the background scenery. D. Small figures with bigger smiles.
14. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Experiencing awe matters. B. More walks, more joy.
C. Exercises can benefit us. D. Awe comes with walking.
15. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness. B. Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone.
C. Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions. D. Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,研究表明怀敬畏之心行路有利于产生积极的情绪。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy (嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace their expanding world. (比如,敬畏步行组的一名参与者描写了“秋天美丽的颜色,下雨后,脚下的树叶不再被踩得嘎吱响。”——这种惊奇像孩子们拥抱他们不断延伸的世界时所感受到的那样)”可知,研究人员要求敬畏步行组怀着孩子般的好奇心探索路程。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in which they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery.(研究人员发现,敬畏步行的参与者表现出一种“小我”,因为他们用自己的图像填充的照片较少,而更多地用背景风景填充)”和倒数第三句“Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study.(研究结束时,他们的笑容也变得更加灿烂)”可知,敬畏步行组的自拍照中,自己的身体只占一小部分,而且面带灿烂的微笑。所以他们的自拍照中,可能显示的是小身形,但是面带灿烂微笑。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.(但是多走路并不会对情绪健康或者自拍方式产生积极的影响。这表明,结果主要是由于体验敬畏,而不只是在花时间锻炼)”提到积极健康情绪产生于心怀敬畏,而非只是简单地花时间锻炼。由此可知,作者在最后一段想传达的是,心怀敬畏才是真正产生影响的。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。结合全文,文章主要介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,尤其是根据第一段的“A new research published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took ‘ awe walks’ felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.(发表在《情感》杂志上的一项新研究发现,那些“敬畏步行”的老年人在日常生活中感受到更多的积极情绪)”和最后一段“Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive change: in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.(研究人员发现,控制组的参与者比敬畏组的参与者更频繁地散步。但是多走路并不会对情绪健康或者自拍方式产生积极的影响。这表明,结果主要是由于体验敬畏,而不只是在花时间锻炼)”可知,敬畏步行有利于促进积极健康情绪。所以C项“敬畏步行能促进积极的情绪”最适合作为本文标题。故选C项。

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。
Urban Wildlife
Cities are diverse ecosystems. In addition to visitors from the wild, a large number of species share our urban areas. As our cities spread, we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbours.
Cities are built for humans. ___16___ For example, most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. But when we cut grass or plant flowers, we destroy natural habitats.
___17___. When a bridge in Austin, Texas was repaired, engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom. This made a good home for bats and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats. ___18___ Now, they have come to value their winged neighbours. The bats are a tourist attraction, and they eat lots of bugs every night.
There are also structures built with the aim of bringing wildlife into the city. The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is a good example. The park used native plants and created open, natural spaces for wildlife. The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds. In many ways, the park is the opposite of a zoo. ___19___
If we learn to share our space, we can become better neighbours to the wildlife around us. ___20___ Our own future will be endangered too.
A. Our actions sometimes help other species.
B. They are built to protect birds.
C. If we do not, more species will become extinct.
D. They would sit on it and their droppings would fall into the water.
E. Instead of being kept in cages wildlife can move about.
F. At first, people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them.
G. They do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.
【答案】16. G 17. A 18. F 19. E 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。在城市中人类应该考虑为野生动物提供和分享空间。
【16题详解】
由空格后的例子“For example, most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. But when we cut grass or plants, we destroy natural habitats, which leads to the imbalance of ecology.(例如,大多数城市公园保持整洁,这样人们就会发现它们很漂亮。但是当我们割草或植物时,我们破坏了自然栖息地,这导致了生态的不平衡)”可知,空格处的句子应该涉及到对野生动物栖息地的破坏。所以G项“They do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.(它们并不总是为野生动物提供合适的栖息地)”填入空格处,符合题意。故选G项。
【17题详解】
空格后的例子“When a bridge in Austin, Texas was repaired, engineers added small gaps running the length of its bottom. This made a good home for bats, and soon the bridge was home to thousands of bats.(当德克萨斯州奥斯汀市的一座桥被修复时,工程师们在桥的底部增加了一些小裂缝。这为蝙蝠提供了一个很好的栖息地,很快这座桥就成了成千上万只蝙蝠的家)”说明人类的行为对野生动物的帮助,这一例子肯定是为了证明空格处的句子,所以空格处的句子一定和人类帮助野生动物有关。所以A项“Our actions sometimes help other species.(我们的行为有时会帮助其他物种)”填入空格处,符合题意。故选A项。
【18题详解】
空格后的句子“Now, they have come to value their winged neighbors.(现在,它们开始重视它们长翅膀的邻居)”是说人们现在对待这些蝙蝠的态度。空格处的句子应该提到人们原来对待这些蝙蝠的态度,形成前后的对比。所以F项“At first, people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them.(起初,人们害怕蝙蝠,试图除掉它们)”填入空格处,符合题意。故选F项。
【19题详解】
空格前的句子“In many ways, the park is the opposite of a zoo.(在许多方面,这个公园和动物园是对立的)”是说这个公园和动物园是对立的。为什么这样说呢?E项“Instead of being kept in cages, wildlife can move more freely.(野生动物不再被关在笼子里,它们可以更自由地活动)”给出了答案。应该E项填入空格处,和上文是顺接关系,符合题意。故选E项。
【20题详解】
根据空格后的句子“Our own future will be endangered too.(我们自己的未来也将受到威胁)”可知,空格处的句子一定提到野生动物的危险处境。所以C项“If we do not, more species will become extinct.(如果我们不这样做,更多的物种将会灭绝)”填入空格处,符合题意。故选C项。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了常沙娜的生平经历以及她在艺术领域的贡献,重点讲述了她与敦煌艺术的深厚渊源。
【36题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:三年后,她前往美国进行深造。根据句意可知,此处表示“进一步的学习”,应用“far”的比较级“further”,“further studies”表示“深造,进修”。故填further。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:1953年,她在中央美术学院任教,之后在中央工艺美术学院任教。根据时间状语“In 1953”可知,句子描述的是过去发生的事情,要用一般过去时。故填taught。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:1943年初,她的母亲带着她和她的小弟弟来到敦煌,当时只有12岁的常沙娜从此就被敦煌艺术的魅力所吸引。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词是“Chang”,指人,在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词“who”引导。故填who。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:受父亲常书鸿的影响,小常沙娜对绘画产生了兴趣。句中已有谓语动词“developed”,所以“influence”需使用非谓语动词形式,“Chang Shana”与“influence”之间是被动关系,即“常沙娜被父亲影响”,所以用过去分词形式作状语,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Influenced。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:她的父亲鼓励她学习法语以及中西方艺术史。“encourage sb. to do sth.”是固定用法,意为“鼓励某人做某事”,所以此处用动词不定式作宾语补足语。故填to study。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:冬天,她的父亲还会在绘画技巧方面给她指导。“give sb. sth.”是固定结构,意为“给某人某物”,此处需要用“guide”的名词形式“guidance”作“give”的直接宾语,“guidance”是不可数名词。故填guidance。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:这些活动为她的艺术打下了良好的基础。“lay a foundation for ...”是固定短语,意为“为……打下基础”。故填for。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:1982年,常沙娜担任中央工艺美术学院副院长,1983年成为院长,并于1998年辞职。分析句子结构可知,“and”连接两个并列句,句中的谓语动词分别是“took up”和“became”,而设空处无连词连接,所以应用动词“quit”的非谓语动词形式,此处“quit”的逻辑主语是“she”,二者之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式作状语。故填quitting。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:除了是一名教育工作者,常沙娜还一直积极参与敦煌文化的研究和保护工作。“educator”是可数名词,此处表示泛指“一名教育工作者”,且“educator”发音以元音音素开头。故填an。
45题详解】
考查副词。句意:除了是一名教育工作者,常沙娜还一直积极参与敦煌文化的研究和保护工作。“engaged”是形容词,需要用“active”的副词形式来修饰。故填actively。

【答案】
Last Saturday, our school launched a “Green Future” environmental campaign on the campus lawn, drawing more than 150 participants including students and teachers.
The day was packed with eco-friendly activities: we divided into groups to pick up litter in the school garden and nearby community; a biology teacher gave a lecture on reducing plastic waste, showing us how to make cloth bags from old clothes; we also held a “green pledge” ceremony where everyone promised to save electricity and plant a tree annually.
The activity won warm feedback. It deepened our understanding of environmental protection and inspired us to take small but consistent steps. As a participant put it, “Every green choice brings us closer to a sustainable future.”

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使其构成一篇完整的短文。
On a cold winter day, Li Ming found an injured puppy on his way home from school. The puppy was curled (蜷缩) up beside a snow pile, shaking, with its hind leg seemingly hurt and its tiny body shaking from the cold. Li Ming bent down and gently touched the puppy’s head, noticing the fear and helplessness in its eyes. He felt a burst of sadness and knew he couldn’t leave the little creature there. Immediately, he took off his scarf (围巾), carefully covered the puppy, and held it in his arms.
“Don’t be afraid, I’ll help you,” Li Ming said softly, trying to comfort the shaking puppy. He decided to take the puppy home, even though he knew his parents might not agree to keep a pet. As he walked, he thought about how to convince his parents. “Maybe if I show them how much I care, they’ll understand,” he said to himself.
When he arrived home, Li Ming quietly carried the puppy to his room. He dried its body with a towel (毛巾), making sure to be extra gentle around the injured leg. Then, he found some old clothes and made a plain bed for the puppy in the corner of his room. The puppy seemed to relax a little, its shaking dying. Li Ming also gave it some water and a small piece of bread, which the puppy ate eagerly, wagging its tail (摇尾巴) weakly.
That night, Li Ming lay in bed, staring at the ceiling (天花板), filled with worry. He didn’t know how serious the puppy’s injury was or how his parents would react. He imagined different situations — some where his parents criticized him, others where they allowed him to keep the puppy. But no matter what, he knew he couldn’t give up this poor little life. As he dropped off to sleep, he dreamed of the puppy running happily in a sunny field, its tail wagging joyfully.
Para 1. The next morning, Li Ming woke up to find the puppy missing from its bed.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2. A few days later, the puppy’s condition gradually improved.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The next morning, Li Ming woke up to find the puppy missing from its bed. Panicked, he rushed out of his room, only to see his parents standing in the living room, their expressions unreadable. His heart sank as he noticed the puppy curled up on the couch, wrapped in a blanket. His father cleared his throat and said, “We found it this morning. Why didn’t you tell us?” Li Ming hesitated, then explained how he had found the puppy and couldn’t bear to leave it in the cold. To his surprise, his mother sighed and said, “We understand, but you should have told us sooner. We’ll take it to the vet today.” Relief washed over Li Ming as he realized his parents weren’t angry — they were concerned. Thanks to everyone’s care, the puppy began to regain its strength.
A few days later, the puppy’s condition gradually improved. Something unexpected happened that changed everything. The vet had confirmed the puppy’s leg was sprained but would heal with care. Li Ming’s parents, seeing how devoted he was to the little dog, started to warm up to the idea of keeping it. One evening, as the puppy playfully chased a ball in the living room, Li Ming’s father smiled and said, “Maybe having a pet isn’t such a bad idea after all.” From then on, the puppy became a beloved member of the family, bringing joy and laughter to their home. Li Ming couldn’t have been happier — his act of kindness had not only saved a life but also brought his family closer together.
