Longji Rice Terraces
Imagine mountains wrapped in silver water, shining in the spring sun. Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with growing rice. During autumn, these same mountains are gold, and in winter they are covered in sheets of white frost. These are the colours of the Longji Rice Terraces.
These terraces were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people, to whom Guangxi is home. Starting in the Yuan Dynasty, work on the terraces took hundreds of years, until its completion in the early Qing Dynasty. Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces cover tall mountains, often from the bottom to the very top.
So why did these people go to so much trouble to turn the entire mountains into terraces? Firstly, there are few large, flat areas of land in the region. Building the terraces therefore meant that they could increase the areas in which they could grow rice. Secondly, although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are steep and the soil is shallow.The flat terraces catch the rainwater and prevent the soil from being washed away.
But perhaps what is most significant is the way in which people have worked in harmony with nature to make these terraces and grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed, with hundreds of waterways that connect with each other. During the rainy season, it is along these waterways that rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces. The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour.This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again. These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on insects that can harm the rice crops.
Although modern technology could help produce more crops, these terraces still mean a lot to the local people for whom traditions hold much value. This knowledge is passed down through families, which means that new generations continue to use ancient methods of agriculture to maintain the terraces. Today, the Longji Rice Terraces attract thousands of visitors who come to admire this great wonder created by people and nature working together.

When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems.A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived.When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions.Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria(细菌)? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did.He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge(污泥).First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other.Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals.He placed them in the tanks and waited.Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem.After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results.The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs.He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington.He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
“Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does.“Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says.“You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening.Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”

If you're in the market for a new food or water dish for your cat, you might want to check out Free the Ocean's Bamboo Cat Bowls.These are made of bamboo fibers and rice husks(稻壳)and are more eco-friendly than traditional plastic.
The presence of bamboo used as a renewable filler is part of what makes the bowl greener.Bamboo, which is technically a grass, grows 30% faster than trees and as much as 1.5 inches per hour! Not surprisingly, it produces 30% more oxygen and absorbs 35% more carbon dioxide than trees, according to Mimi Ausland, founder of Free the Ocean.“It's a cut-and-come-again plant, which means it can be cropped without disrupting the root ball, reducing carbon giving off when it's harvested.”
Rice husk is a by -product of rice production that is a challenge to farmers because it is hard to break down and of no great value.Its use as a filler provides a purpose for an otherwise useless material and, along with the bamboo,contributes to the durability of the product.
Ausland said, “Plastic cat dishes harbor bacteria(细菌), which can put your cat's health at risk.Even if pet owners clean them regularly, they cannot be fully sanitized.Plastic bowls are the main cause of cat diseases.”
However, the bamboo cat bowl will not leach(渗入)harmful chemicals into your pet's water the way that traditional plastic can and it is naturally free of bacteria.
Cats will like the bowls, as they have low edges.With an easy-to-pick-up handle, they come in four colors.
One customer commented, “My cats prefer these cat food bowls just like me.The cats like the low lip that makes it easy to eat out of.And the fact that they're made of bamboo and that buying them makes a difference to the environment is amazing! And it is easy to wash in the dishwasher.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新研制的竹制猫碗,相比传统的塑料来说更环保、安全。
28.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?
A.The importance of bamboo in nature.
B.The advantages of bamboo over grass.
C.The benefits of using bamboo as material.
D.The role of bamboo in reducing pollution.
√
段落大意题。根据第二段内容可知,竹子被用作可再生的填充物,这是使碗更环保的部分原因。竹子的生长速度比树木快30%,且比树木多产生30%的氧气,多吸收35%的二氧化碳。故第二段主要讨论了用竹子作材料的好处。故选C。
29.What does the underlined word “sanitized” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A.Replaced. B.Removed.
C.Found. D.Used.
词义猜测题。根据第四段中“Plastic cat dishes harbor bacteria(细菌), which can put your cat's health at risk.”以及画线单词所在句中“Even if pet owners clean them regularly”可知,塑料猫碗会藏有细菌,即使定期清洗也不会被清洗干净,由此推断画线词 sanitized意为“清除掉”。故选B。
√
30.What can we infer from the customer's words?
A.Cats have low lips.
B.Cats are easy to satisfy.
C.He is fond of the new bowl.
D.He doesn't like doing housework.
√
推理判断题。根据最后一段顾客对猫碗的积极评价可知,从顾客的话中我们可以推断出他喜欢那个新碗。故选C。
31.What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To promote a new product.
B.To give pet owners some advice.
C.To introduce the functions of bamboo.
D.To point out the link between material and health.
写作意图题。通读全文可知,文章开篇介绍了竹制的猫碗,下文进一步分析了这种猫碗的使用材料以及特点等,由此判断文章的目的是推荐新产品。故选A。

In the last decade, scientists have been going back and forth on one question: does recycling really help the environment? The conclusion at which they have arrived seems to be:yes,it does.However,experts warn that our efforts should not stop there.While recycling is an important part of the solution, it is not necessarily the most important factor.Therefore, I disagree that recycling is the key to a sustainable future.
Compared to other methods to save the Earth, recycling is a much smaller player.According to a recent study, the twenty top petrochemical(石化)companies in the world are responsible for 55% of the world's single-use plastics, most of which are practically impossible to recycle.This means that asking these major polluters to take responsibility for their harm to the environment would do much more than if every one of us recycled our waste.In addition, a dependence on recycling can take attention away from reducing and reusing, which are more effective in lowering emissions(排放)and in turn helping to create a sustainable future.Therefore, it would do us a lot of good if we focus on these other high-priority solutions rather than simply recycling.
Recycling supporters may argue that recycling is indeed the key to a sustainable future because it helps save a lot of energy by taking what already exists and changing it into something new.While it is true that recycling is a valuable tool in the fight against climate change, it is not the key.Regrettably, it alone is not sufficient.So, while we should continue recycling, we need to go further by taking other actions for our planet.
To conclude, I disagree that recycling is the key to a sustainable future. Having said that, recycling is still beneficial.It is but a small part of an interconnected web of solutions, which on its own can not accomplish much, but together with other efforts, can truly create a sustainable future for us all.
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了回收利用虽然对于可持续未来是解决方案的重要组成部分,但不一定是最重要的因素。
32.Which of the following belongs to “other actions” in Paragraph 3?
A.Stopping using plastics.
B.Individuals recycling their waste.
C.Using fewer high-emission cars.
D.Changing used things into something new.
√
细节理解题。根据第三段的“So, while we should continue recycling, we need to go further by taking other actions for our planet.”可知,“other actions”应该指“recycling”之外的方式,B项和D项都指的是“回收”,文中未讲到完全停止使用塑料,故排除A项。故选C。
33.Why is recycling not that important according to the author?
A.It can only save 45% of the energy people need.
B.It does not help with protecting the environment.
C.It stops major polluters from taking responsibility.
D.It plays a small and limited part in sustaining the Earth.
√
推理判断题。根据第一段的“While recycling is an important part of the solution, it is not necessarily the most important factor.”,第二段的“Compared to other methods to save the Earth, recycling is a much smaller player.”,倒数第二段的“While it is true that recycling is a valuable tool in the fight against climate change, it is not the key.”和最后一段的“It is but a small part of an interconnected web of solutions...”可知,作者认为回收在维持地球稳定中起着有限的作用。故选D。
34.What is the key to a sustainable future according to the author?
A.Combined efforts of all the solutions.
B.More and more people joining in recycling.
C.Reducing and reusing of single-use plastics.
D.Asking petrochemical companies to be responsible.
√
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,作者认为可持续未来的关键是所有解决方案的共同努力。故选A。
35.Why does the author write this article?
A.To raise a question.
B.To express an idea.
C.To explain a rule.
D.To present a solution.
写作意图题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要论述了作者认为虽然回收利用对于可持续未来是解决方案的重要组成部分,但它不一定是最重要的因素,即作者通过文章表达自己的想法。故选B。

Food waste contributes to ever-growing landfills (垃圾填埋场). 36 If you want to help the environment in your own way, you can start by reducing, or better yet, completely erasing food waste in your home.To give you an idea of where to start, here are some tips:
Don't buy too much food whenever you go grocery shopping. 37 However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste.Taking several short grocery shopping trips every week instead of one long trip may help keep you from buying too much food, thereby cutting back on food waste.
Always make a shopping list. 38 That's because you already know what things you need.Moreover, a list will prevent you from buying food items that you already have at home, which can help reduce the amount of potential food waste.
39 For meats, you have to keep them in the freezer while fruits and vegetables should be stored in the crisper compartment(保鲜室).Although these tips may seem simple, they can help greatly reduce the amount of food waste that your family produces.
Use the“First-In-First-Out” method.For example, placing the newly bought foods at the back of the fridge or cupboard will encourage people to use the ones that are in the front row.This will ensure that you know what you have and reduce food waste. 40
A.It can help keep your grocery trips short.
B.Having a fully filled fridge may look nice.
C.Your fridge may be too crowded to function well.
D.It is a waste of your money, as well as your effort.
E.Some people like to store up food for emergencies.
F.Foods need proper storage to prevent them going bad.
G.If you can't see what foods you have, you'll forget them.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何减少或者完全消除家里的食物浪费提了几条建议。
Food waste contributes to ever-growing landfills (垃圾填埋场). 1_______
_________________________________________ If you want to help the environment in your own way, you can start by reducing, or better yet, completely erasing food waste in your home.To give you an idea of where to start, here are some tips:
设空处前提到食物浪费导致垃圾填埋场不断增加,结合选项可知,D项“这是在浪费你的钱,也是在浪费你的精力。”符合语境,和上一句是顺承关系。选项中的It指代上一句中的Food waste。故选D项。
D.It is a waste of your money, as well as your effort.
Don't buy too much food whenever you go grocery shopping. 2___________
_____________________________ However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste.Taking several short grocery shopping trips every week instead of one long trip may help keep you from buying too much food, thereby cutting back on food waste.
根据空后的“However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste.”可知,空后表示转折,设空处表达的意思应与空后相反。空后表达如果你的家人不能在食物变质之前吃完所有的食物,那么这只会增加食物浪费,B项“有一个装满食物的冰箱可能看起来不错。”符合语境,与下文形成转折,且B项中的 fully filled 与空后的all the food 呼应。故选B项。
B.Having a fully filled fridge may look nice.
Always make a shopping list.3___________________________________ That's because you already know what things you need.Moreover, a list will prevent you from buying food items that you already have at home, which can help reduce the amount of potential food waste.
根据本段的主旨句“Always make a shopping list.”可知, 本段主要介绍了列购物清单这一方法,空后的because 提示,空后一句是原因,故设空处应是结果,A项“它可以帮助你缩短购物之旅。”符合语境,空后的That指代“列购物清单有助于缩短购物之旅”这个结果,同时A项中的It指代上一句中的a shopping list。故选A项。
A.It can help keep your grocery trips short.
4__________________________________________________ For meats, you have to keep them in the freezer while fruits and vegetables should be stored in the crisper compartment(保鲜室).Although these tips may seem simple, they can help greatly reduce the amount of food waste that your family produces.
设空处是本段的主旨句。根据设空处后的内容可知,本段主要讲了不同的食物要用不同的储存方式,并以肉和蔬菜举例。F项“食物需要妥善储存以防止变质。”符合语境,能够概括本段内容。故选F项。
F.Foods need proper storage to prevent them going bad.
Use the“First-In-First-Out” method.For example, placing the newly bought foods at the back of the fridge or cupboard will encourage people to use the ones that are in the front row.This will ensure that you know what you have and reduce food waste.5____________________________________________
____________
设空处前解释为什么应该把新买的食物放在冰箱或橱柜里靠后的位置,设空处应该承接上文。G项“如果你看不到你有什么食物,你就会忘记它们。”符合语境,介绍如果不采取上文做法的弊端。故选G项。
G.If you can't see what foods you have, you'll forget them.
第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了现在正在发生的全球气候变化的问题。
severity
the
56.答案:from
57.答案:assessed
than引导比较状语从句,设空处作从句的谓语,根据previously 可知,此处表示过去发生的事,从句应用一般过去时。故填assessed。
result from...为固定搭配,意为“因……发生;起因于”,后接原因。故填 from。
58.答案:which
59.答案:to recover
分析句子结构可知,第二个逗号前面已有一个完整的句子,some of ______引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是changes,指物,关系词在从句中作 of 的宾语,关系词应用which。
be unable to do sth为固定搭配,意为“不能做某事”。故填to recover。
60.答案:highly
61.答案:produced
设空处修饰形容词confident,作状语,应用副词,故填highly,在此意为“很;非常”。
that引导的宾语从句中已有谓语will rise,且无连词使其与设空处连接,设空处应用非谓语形式;根据空后的by可知,produce与greenhouse gases之间为逻辑上的被动关系,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填produced。
62.答案:is reported
63.答案:worse
it is reported that...为固定句型,意为“据报道……”;此处描述客观事实,应用一般现在时。故填is reported。
to make matters worse为固定短语,意为“更糟糕的是”,含有比较意义。故填 worse。
64.答案:severity
65.答案:the
设空处为句子主语中心词,其前有定冠词The修饰,应用名词severity,意为“严重性”,为不可数名词。故填severity。
根据句意和介词短语of future human activities可知,此处表特指, the path of意为“……的路径”。故填the。

第二节(满分25分)
(2024·江苏南京金陵中学高一期末)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city.The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim at their local beach after school.But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters.More often than not, they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach.Worse still, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend, Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean up the waste.Sweat streamed down their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags.To their disappointment, after a day's hard work, there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water.Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently.Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down.What happened?” Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice, “It's those annoying plastic bags.We tried to clean them up but it was just impossible.” Understanding the pair's disappointment,their father patted them on the back and comforted, “Well, it's really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.” “Just two of us,” complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other. Suddenly, an idea flashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement. “Yes, that's the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and started planning. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of the Internet.“Maybe we can write an article to raise public awareness of marine pollution,” Maria proposed.“Good idea! We can also make a video!” Peter added.The next few hours witnessed their heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and beautiful coast.The next day, they went to the beach and filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach and floating in the sea.Peter, who was good at writing, wrote an article talking about the current condition of the beach and asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous, they posted the video and article on the Internet. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
To their amazement, their post went viral online immediately.Countless comments flooded in saying how heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and ocean.What amazed Maria and Peter more was that numerous people in their community, encouraged by their efforts, offered to join in their clean-up.More and more people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags.A year later, with their joint and continuous efforts, the coast regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-awaited pleasure.
