B Back in 2003,Erica Hernandez was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach.They overheard a plan to build a processing station for natural gas 14 miles offthe coast of Oxnard.The plant would send over 200 tons of air pollution per year to Erica's community.Not only that,the station would take in millions of gallons of seawater per day to cool its generators,and discharge the water more than 15 degrees centigrade hotter than the surrounding ocean.This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem,killing tiny creatures and small fish critical to the survival ofmarine mammals and fisheries. 0, Erica cared too much to stay silent.She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company.Prospects of stopping the project did not look good.The governor was in favor of it,and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it."The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do." Behind the scenes,however,opposition was growing,so Erica became the spokesperson for the youth of the town.She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipelie,using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses.She talked to the media,and stories about the dangers ofthe proposed facility began appearing in the press."We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea."In July 2007,the governor made an unexpected move: He turned down the project.Erica and her friends won! As only the second person in her family to go to college,Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities.She wants other young people to speak out when they 3 CS扫描全能王 可3亿人都在用的扫描App see something wrong,even if they feel shy about it at first.She likes to quote the words of her role model,Cesar Chavez:"We are the future.The future is ours." 24.What can be learned about the to-be-built processing station?

D.Environmental protection should come before economic development. ○ Can music help you concentrate at work?Researchers from the University of Wales Institute in Cardiff conducted a new study,and it has some interesting results. The research examined the ability of 25 people,aged 18 to 30,to remember information while listerring to various sounds.In one task they had to remember a list ofeight consonant (letters,which were dictated to them Participants in the study were tested under three different conditions:in a quiet environment,while listening to music they liked,and while listening to music they didn't like.The participants generally did better when they were working in silence.The background music seemed to make memorization and recall more difficult.However, scientists also found that listening to music before doing the tests seemed to help concentration. "Despite describing their self-selected music as more pleasant,their performance was poor,just as it was when they listened to music they disliked,"explained one of the researchers.So,even if you're listening to music you like, it'll still interfere with your work. This would appear to eontradict the findings of scientists who have researched what is popularly known as the "Mozart Effect".This concept was invented by French scientist Dr.Alfred A.Tomatitis in 1991.Tomatitis published a book,Why Mozart?,which described what he believed were the healing powers of listening to Mozart's music. He also suggested that Mozart's music could aid brain development.Later studies indicated it might enhance children's spatial intelligence,leading to a widespread belief that classical music could boost a child's IQ. The governor of the state of Georgia even once advocated allocating over $100,000 annually to supply classical CDs to every newborn in the state. Another study seemed to furher contradict the idea that music could help with concentration.The researchers found that surveyed university students mostly preferred studying in silence.Those listening to music preferred instrumental songs,saying that lyrics are distracting. So,if you're studying for an exam,turn off your music. 28.Under whioh condition did participants perform best in the University of Wales studyi A.Prior exposure to music. B.Listening to disliked music. C.Working in silence. D.Listening to favorite music. 4 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App 29.What is suggested about the impact of "Mozart Effect"? A.It has led to some real-world practices. B.It has been proven to enhance adult intelligence. C.It mainly promotes the enjoyment of classical music. D.It originates from governmental edudational policies. 30.What is paragraph 7 mainly about? A.Lyrics distract more than tunes B Instrumental music aids concentration. C.Students'music tastes vary widely D.Quiet is often preferred for study. 31.What can be inferred about background music? A.It best aids creative work. B.Its effects are inconsistent across studies. C.It improves performance in concentration tasks. D.It affects people differently based on preference. D Being an information technology,or IT,worker is not ajob I envy.They are the ones expeeted to instantly fix a projector that stops working.even right in the middle of a critical meeting.They have to tolerate the bad mood of colleagues who are upset after calling the help desk repeatedly for the same issue:They also know,there are better, more reliable and faster systems available,but their employer simply will not provide the funds to buy them. According to a recent survey,employees reliant on IT support often consider it a major source of job dissatisfaction.Through no fault of their own,they can suddenly find their productivity deteriorating()or quality control non-existent.And there's little they can do about it. The experience of using IT affects almost every aspect of the workplace.It has become a crucial part of employees'overall work experience.When IT is operating as it should,employee self-confidence increases. Their job satisfaction,too,can surge when well-functioning machines relieve them of dull tasks or repetitive processes.But if there's one thing that triggers widespread frustration,it's a failed IT transformation project. In such cases,high expectations are dashed,and.a.long list of promised efficiencies fails to materialize.This occurs when business leaders implement IT initiatives with hittle consideration ofhow those changes will impact the end user. This is why managers should appreciate how influential the IT user experience is,and make a substantial effort to ensure their IT team fixes programming errors and application crashes.Adequate and timely IT support should also be available to help users resolve technological issues at work.More importantly,IT practitioners need to understand how employees feel when they use IT. Therefore,businesses need to design their IT infrastructure()to fit their employees'work,rather than force employees to work around the company's IT limitations. 32.What makes the amthor say IT work is not aob he envies? A.Fixing une.<pected project problems. B.Upgrading the present systems repeatedly. C.Resolving tensions among unhappy colleagues.D.Handling high-pressure tasks with poor support. 33.What is said about Information Technology's influence on employees? A.It mainly helps the tech-skilled. B.Its negatives may outweigh positives. C.It can hurt or improve work and well-being. D.It often lowers productivity and satisfaction. 34.What should managers and businesses do to improve the IT experience? A.Make IT training available to staff. B.Tailor technology to fit human work patterns. C.Upgrade systems regardless of cost for efficiency. D.Focus first on solving urgent technical breakdowns. CS扫描全能王 造延3亿人都在用的扫描App 35.Which would be the best title for the text? A.Employee Training in the Digital Age B.The Rising Cost of Business Technology C.Why IT Departments Need More Funding. D.Human-Centered IT:A Key to Productivity 第二节(：题：你小题？.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选顷中迭出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Learning a language is full of fulfilling steps,from the excitement ofyour first conversation with a fluent speaker to the intellectual challenge of mastering grammar rules.But at some point,you need to handle an unavoidable task. 36 Here are our top tips for absorbing new English words efficiently! Flashcards are a great tool,especially for beginners.However,make sure to practice the words you learn in different contexts.For example,if you learn food-related words,try reading an English recipe to see how they're used.3 This way,you can focus on words you've encountered in your studies,making them easier to remember. The saying "use it or lose it"applies perfectly to vocabulary.If you don't use new words,you'll forget them. 38 Ideally,practice it in conversation with an English speaker.For instance,after learning haircut-related vocabalary,visit an English-speaking barber to test your new words. Studies show that handwriting helps you remember information better than typing.The reason isn't entirely clear,but it could be because writing requires more time and intentional movement.This simple trick can make a big difference in remembering vocabulary. Another trick is to note down the new words whenever you encounter them.Each word you record comes with its own context,making it easier to remember.40_Eventually,your notebook will become a valuable resource for expanding your vocabulary. Over time,these small intentional efforts will build a strong foundation for fluency.With patience and persistence,you'll find yourself confidently using new words in conversations,reading,and writing,bringing you closer to your language goals. A.You have to memorize a bunch of words. B.Will typing replace handwriting one day? C.There is no need to worry about your language learning. D.When you learn a word,try to use it in real-life situations. E.Start small by writing down five new words per study time. F.You can also create your own flashcards instead ofusing pre-made ones. C Writing new words by hand may seem old-fashioned,but it's surprisingly effective. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 On a cold winter momning,Gelinne,60,was gazing out the back windows of his home at Beards Creek when he spotted something terrible.A small aircraft a few hundred yards away was losing 41_.As the plane 42 behind the trees,Gelinne realized it was going to fall in the creek().

"There's no good way to deliver bad news,"Mr.Trotta said when Henry stepped into his office.Hearing this, Henry's smile faded. "We're closing shop,Henry.Advertising is down.Television is how people get their news these days.Local papers are the first to close."Mr.Trotta-shrugged. Frozen to the spot,Henry couldn't believe his ears.He thought of all the people he had met on his route.They wouldn't get their neighborhood news anymore. "You are great,Henry-always dependable,"Mr.Trotta said.Henry forced himself to lift his head to say goodbye. As he rode past the houses he knew so well,he saw Mr.Grady on his porch,holding a broom )Henry led him to a chair and cleaned the porch.They sat for a while as Mr.Grady recalled how happy he'd been moving his family to 10 Oak Street.He sounded lonely. A week after making his last deliveries,Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out.He started out on his old route with a notebook. Henry stopped at Mrs.Burke's.She opened the door,holding the two babies.She asked him if he knew any neighbors who knew how to look after children. Mr.Simon was next door,carrying his violin and heading out."Hey,Henry.My band is playing a concert in the park this Friday.Tell your friends."
