Ben,the friend I made in the new city,volunteered to teach me to skate.Even though he was very patient,I was so embarrassed by my clumsiness that I began to make up excuses for not skating. One day I discovered a faster route home.It took me past a large frozen pond.I noticed a woman teaching a young girl to skate.The girl was attempting to jump and spin in the air. Over and over,she pushed off the ground with the toe of her skate.And over and over,she landed hard on the ice. After I had been watching the girl practice for about a week,one afternoon she suddenly lifted off the ground,spun in the air,and landed on her feet! The next day I bought myself some brand new skates.Every day on the way home I stopped at the pond and wobbled onto the ice,right next to the girl who had landed her jump.As she perfected her twists and tricks,I taught myself to glide and turn.It was hard being a beginner,and when I fell I had to fight the urge to simply give up.Insueaa,every time I went down,I just picked myself up and started over again.Soon I was able to keep my balance and skate more confidently.In just a few weeks,I was actually ready to practice the speed skating,fast stops,and quick turns needed for ice hockey.When I was finally ready to show Ben my newfound skating ability,he told me I should join the local hockey league.I tried out and was chosen for a team.By the end of the season,I was part of a winning team. 24.What can we learn about the author?

A.All roads lead to Rome. B.One is never too old to learn. C.One good turn deserves another. D.Success is not always under control. Once small farmers in Masii,a remote village in Kenya,have picked their crops,all they can do is wait until a buyer trucks through.The system works fairly well for beans and corn,out mangoes-the 第4页共8页 area's other main crop-spoil (more quickly.If the trader is late,they rot. Obadiah Kisaingu,a farmer in Masii,estimates 40%of the village's mango crop is lost to spoilage. But a simple coating could change that.A company,SmartTech,has created a product that doubles the shelf life of fresh produce,enabling farmers like Kisaingu to access far-off 9 larger markets.More time for fresh produce on grocers'shelves also means less food waste-a $2.6 trillion problem,according to the United Nations5 Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). James Rogers,CEO of SmartTech,who has a Ph.D in materials science,wanted to solve the problem for food much in the same way that oxide barriers preventing rust ()have achieved for steel Fortunately,researchers have found when plants made the jump from water to land hundreds of millions of years ago,they developed cutin,a barrier which is made of fatty acids that link together to form a sea around the plant,helping keep water in. The cutin was such a grand strategy that today you'll still find it across the plant kingdom.Not tha it's exactly the same solution across the board:An orange can last longer than a strawberry not so muck because of the thickness of its skin,but because of the difference in the arrangement of those cutir molecules (on the surface.SmartTech's challenge was first identifying the key components o: cutin.After extensive trials,Rogers and his team developed a natural and tasteless protective coating from plant material-stems,leaves and skins.The product extends the sweet spot between ripening anc rot.And best of all,the treated produce doesn't require refrigeration. SmartTech traveled a long road to get here.It was six years from launch before products applie with the substance were in stores.SmartTech-treated fruits and vegetables are already in large grocer chains in Europe and the U.S.and the company recently gained regulatory approval in several les developed countries in South America. "SmartTech has huge potential to turn poor farmers in Africa into commercial farmers,"say Rogers."That means more money in pockets,and more food in stomachs."But whether the compan can cost-effectively reach small farmers in far-off areas still remains a challenge. 28.The author mentions the small farmers in Kenya to A.stress their need for preserving produce B.show their difficulty in harvesting crops C.evaluate their loss caused by slow transport D.help express their wish to reach larger markets 29.What can we learn about SmartTech's product? A.It is financially supported by FAO. B.It is intended to replace refrigeration. C.It is designed to thicken produce's skin. D.It is based on plants'own defence system. 30.What does James Rogers expect? A.To earn more money. B.To profit farmers. C.To produce more food. D.To expand grocery chains. 第5页共8页 D Do the endless stream of messages and the thought of replying to unopened texts give you anxiety? Can the group chat feel so overwnelming that you want to throw your phone out of the window?Texting anxiety is a real thing,and more common than you'd think. In the last 25 years,texting has changed the way we communicate greatly.And many would argue. not for the better.The average person in 2022 checks their phone 262 times a day,up trom a dary average of 80 in 2016.Overwhelmed,many ena up conscrously or unconsciously opting out,stopping cesponding to loved ones and friends.Unfortunately,not everyone will be understanding. Leah Aguirre,a psychotherapist explains that text conversations are usually a source of anxiety as they come with a lot of uncertamty."We can't predict how someone will respond,if they will respond, or how quickly they will respond.We can't control other people's actions or behavior or how they think and interpret()things,and for people that are already prone to anxiety this can be hard to cope with.” Aguirre says this is reflected in a physical reaction,tighuess in the chest,tensions.or increased heart rate.You also may feel a little more on edge or short with others,compulsively check your phone or have obsessive and intrusive thouguts about the text conversation.Simpry hearing a notification )if our phone is out of reach,causes the brain chemicals associated with stress to spike. As weh as the personal effects,text anxiety can put a strain on your relationships with friends and loved ones.A 2018 study found that romantic partnerships and friendships are far more successful when you and the other person have a similar texting style.If both parties are quick responders,the relationship is less likely to hit the rocks.Simiarry,ir all parties are happy to go hours,days,even weeks between responses,then everyone is happy. Establishing a texting scneduie with people you interact with frequently is one way of reducing some of the stress if you have different texting styles.Aguirre suggests limiting the amount of time you are on your phone also helps with the anxietv."By cancelling or reducing how much contact you have with the source of anxiety,you'll feel some reliet,"she says. "You can give yourself a pep talk,tell yourself that you are okay and that you have no control over another person's response or behavior.Remind yourself that this is just a phone or a text message and that,big picture,you are okay and will be okay." 31.The purpose of Paragraph 2 is to A.demonstrate the level of texting anxiety B.stress the importance of communication C.analyze the cause of troubled relationships D.introduce the increasing use of cell phones 32.What does the underlined phrase "on edge"in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Frightened. B.Interested. C.Excited. D.Nervous. 33.What can we infer from the passage? 第6页共8页 A.Putting phones on"silence"mode increases anxiety. B.We should ask our partners to change their texting styles. C.Creating a texting plan with others helps reduce text anxiety. D.Texting anxiety is often caused by the time taken to answer the texts. 34.What would be the best title for the passage? A.A texting schedule:The final way out B.Texting anxiety:Problems and solutions C.Text conversations:Strengths and weaknesses D.A new perspective:How much texting is too much 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 What is your recovery rate?How long does it take you to recover from actions and behaviors that upset you?Minutes?Hours?Days?Weeks?Briefly,the longer it takes you to recover,the more influence that incident has on your actions,and the less able you are to perform to your personal best. 35 You are well aware that you need to exercise to keep the body fit and,no doubt,accept that a reasonable measure of health is the speed in which your heart and respiratory system(呼吸系统) recovers after exercise.Likewise the faster you let go of an issue that upsets you,the faster you return to calm,the healthier you will be.36They know that the faster they can forget an incident or missed opportunity and get on with the game,the better their performance. Similarly,imagine yourself to be an actor in a play on the stage.37You have been given a script and at the end of each sentence is a fut stop.Each time you get to the end of the sentence you start a new one.Although the next sentence is related to the last it is not affected by it.Your job is to deliver each sentence to the best of your ability. So,it is unnecessary to live your life in the past.38Thoughts of the past shouldn't be allowed to reduce your personal best.Being present is a gateway to recover quickly. 39 Reflect on your recovery rate each day.Every day before you go to bed,look at your progress.When you are lying in bed,you shouldn't blame yourself for having done this wrong or not having done that better,but look at your day and note when you made an effort to place a full stop after an incident.In this way,you are taking control of your life and achieve the aim:reduce the time spent in recovery. A.You're undertaking real changes here. B.Remember:Rome wasn't built in a day. C.Here are some cases where you can learn about it. D.Your aim is to play vour part to the best of your ability. 第7页共8页 E.Instead of the past,it is the present that you have to focus on. F.The best example of this behavior is found with professional sportspeople. G.It's said that the average time for sportspeople to win the game is 30 minutes. 第三部分书面表达（共两节，满分32分） 第一节（共4小题：第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Is it possible to improve your brain function?The answer is"yes" Information in your brain is collected,stored and recalled by neural pathways.These pathways are responsible for your abilities to solve problems,remember familiar faces and tasks,without paying a ton of efforts.Millions of these neural pathways begin developing from the time when you are growing into a baby.To keep our memory healthy,we need to create new pathways continually. As we age,our lifestyles often change,stopping those pathways from being developed.Two frequent changes are a decrease in exercise and less attention to our diet,which have a negative effect on our brain and memory.Our brain requires consistent stimulation,regardless of our age,and looking for ways to excite the production of new pathways is critical.Just like your physical muscles need to be used in different ways to make them stronger,our brain needs change to help challenge its abilities. One simple way to stimulate the production of new pathways is trying something new.Challenge your brain with puzzles,a new language or learning how to play an instrument.Anything different and new can stimulate your brain and memory,The best activities are the ones outsiae of your comfort zone. They push you as you develop new neural pathways Ine effort involved in learning and committing to memory a new skill,with new terms and language,is a great way to exercise your brain. Another way to stimulate the production of new pathways is doing exercise.When you exercise your body,you are also working out your mind,because regular activity helps to improve the chemicals in your brain and to protect brain cells. 40.According to the passage,what can negatively affect our brain and memory? 41.Why are the best activities the ones outside of your comfort zone? 42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. The two ways mentioned in the passage to help create new pathways are trying something new and exercising your brain by challenging your brain with different tasks. 43.What else can you do to improve your brain function?(In about 40 words) 第二节作文(20分) 假设你是红星中学高二学生会坐席李华，你们学校将要举办英语戏剧大赛（English Drama Contest),请你给外教Jim写一封邮件，邀请他担任此次比赛评委，内容包括： 1、介绍活动安排，评委职责 2、其他相关事项 第8页共8页
