D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，讲述了纪录片《重返狼群》走红后带来的意外问题——大量游客涌入保护区寻找“狼王”格林，破坏了当地环境和牧民生活。文章呼吁真正的动物保护是保持距离、尊重自然，而非将保护变成获取流量的工具。 【9题详解】 句意：她意识到他属于大自然，于是帮助他回归野外。 上文提到Li把狼带到了城市，下文说帮助它回归野外。狼是野生动物，不属于城市，belong to nature意为“属于大自然”，与后文“return to the wild”直接呼应。 【10题详解】 句意：在克服了许多困难之后，Green成功加入了一个狼群，找到了他真正的家。 一只被人类养大的狼要重新回归野外生活，必然会遇到很多困难和挑战。overcoming意为“克服”，描述Green战胜困难的过程，符合“成功加入狼群”的结果。 【11题详解】 句意：他们的故事感动了数百万人，表明人类和动物可以成为真正的朋友。 这是一个感人的故事——人类救助动物并帮助它回归自然。moved意为“感动”，描述观众的情感反应，与后文“popular”受欢迎的结果一致。 【12题详解】 句意：然而，这种人气带来了一些意想不到的问题。 上文说纪录片很受欢迎，下文说游客涌入带来了问题。前后语义转折，However意为“然而”，引出与受欢迎相反的问题。 【13题详解】 句意：为了在网上获得更多的“点赞”和关注，许多游客涌入保护区。 游客涌入保护区的目的是为了在网上获得关注。attention意为“关注”，与“likes”（点赞）并列，都是社交媒体上的流量指标。 【14题详解】 句意：他们中的一些人甚至未经许可进入森林深处。 前文提到“many tourists”，此处some of them指代这些游客中的一部分。them是代词，指代前文的tourists，保持人称一致。 【15题详解】 句意：他们架起摄像机，开始用嘈杂的音乐直播，希望能看到“狼王”格林。 游客们涌入保护区直播，目的是亲眼看到“狼王”格林。“catch sight of”为固定搭配，意为“看见、看到”。 【16题详解】 句意：这些行为严重影响了当地环境。 上文描述的游客进入森林、架设备、直播等一系列行为，actions意为“行为”，概括指代这些具体做法。 【17题详解】 句意：巨大的噪音和夜晚的亮光常常使野生动物感到害怕。 游客制造的噪音和灯光让动物感到恐惧。make sb. afraid为固定搭配，意为“使某人害怕”，描述外部因素对动物产生的影响。 【18题详解】 句意：当地牧民也不高兴，因为人群打破了他们生活的宁静。 牧民生活在草原上，习惯了安静的环境。游客涌入打破了这种平静。peace意为“宁静、平静”，符合牧民对生活状态的描述。 【19题详解】 句意：一位当地工人生气地说：“格林已经回归自然，但有些人却试图把自然拉入嘈杂的网络世界。” 这位工人对游客破坏自然的行为感到愤怒。angrily意为“生气地”，符合说话内容中对“把自然拉入嘈杂网络世界”的批评语气。 【20题详解】 句意：真正的爱动物不是近距离观察或拍照，而是保护它们的安全。 文章强调不打扰动物，保持距离。保护动物的安全才是真正的爱护。safety意为“安全”，与后文“keep a safe distance”呼应。 【21题详解】 句意：野生动物保护绝不应成为获取名气的工具。 游客为了流量和关注涌入保护区，把保护变成了出名的手段。famous意为“出名的”，getting famous意为“出名”，符合对这类行为的批评。 【22题详解】 句意：我们必须让我们的脚远离它们安静的家。 keep away from为固定搭配，意为“远离”。from表示“从……离开”，符合“保持距离、不打扰”的主题。 【23题详解】 句意：它要求我们保持安全的距离。 保护自然需要我们做到保持距离，这是一种责任和要求。requires意为“要求”，语气较强，符合环保呼吁的严肃性。 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后用方框中所给词的适当形式填空。每个词限用一次。 history invent picture symbol early free especially I popular as cost In China, it’s common to see people on the street using their fans (扇子) in summer.

At the Milan Winter Olympics, she won the gold medal in the women’s aerials (自由式滑雪) final, successfully continuing to be the champion (冠军). She became the first athlete ever to achieve this feat in the event, adding another wonderful time to Chinese winter sports. Xu’s journey to success was long and hard. She first competed in the Winter Olympics in 2010 at the age of 20. Over the years, she won a silver medal, faced painful failures, and even thought about giving up. However, her love for the sport and strong will to win never changed. After 12 years of hard work, she finally completed the “Grand Slam” of her career, including all major international titles. After the competition, Xu spoke to the media. “As a child, I planted a seed in my heart—to become a world champion and represent my country proudly.” “Today, I have proved: a 35-year-old woman still has many possibilities. At any time, we can choose to stand up bravely and welcome our own success.” When asked about her secret, Xu smiled, “Age is never a problem,” she said. “No matter how old we are, we can still be the best. We can still stand on the top of the world at 35.” Xu Mengtao’s story teaches us something important. Dreams never end. Challenges and pain are real, but so is the power of perseverance (毅力). Whether on the ski slope or in the classroom, with passion and hard work, anything is possible. 38. How old was Xu Mengtao when she first took part in the Winter Olympics? A. 20. B. 25. C. 31.

He wanted his sons not to judge (判断) things too quickly. So he sent them each in turn on a journey to go and look at a pear tree that was far away. He sent the first son in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in the summer, and the youngest in autumn. When they all came back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly and weak. The second son said, “No, it was covered with green leaves and full of promise.” The third son disagreed, saying it was filled with flowers that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, and it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. The youngest son said it was full of fruit, full of life and achievement. The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree’s life. He told them that you cannot determine a tree, or a person, by only one season. He also told them who they are — and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life — can only be judged at the end, when all the seasons are up. If you give up when it’s winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, the achievement of your autumn. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. Don’t judge life by one difficult season. Hold on through the difficult times and then better times are sure to come. 43. Why did the man send his four sons to look at the pear tree in four seasons? A. Because the man knew the pear tree completely. B. Because the sons didn’t get on well with each other. C. Because the sons wanted to enjoy the different sights. D. Because the man wanted his sons to think twice before judgement. 44. What does the underlined word “determine” mean according to the passage? A. Prepare. B. Judge. C. Think. D. Believe. 45. Which season does “the pain of one season” refer to in the last paragraph? A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter. 46. What can we infer from the passage? A. The pear tree was only beautiful in summer B. The four sons were not honest with their father. C. Difficult times will pass and better times will come. D. The youngest son was the cleverest of the four brothers. 47. What is the passage mainly about? A. The pear tree had four seasons. B. The man loved his sons very much. C. The youngest son is the cleverest man. D. Don’t judge life by one difficult season. 【答案】43. D 44. B 45. D 46. C 47. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇寓言故事，讲述了一位父亲让四个儿子在不同季节观察同一棵梨树，从而教导他们不要仅凭一个季节就判断事物的整体。 【43题详解】 根据第一段“He wanted his sons not to judge things too quickly.”可知，父亲让儿子们在四个季节观察梨树，是为了让他们在判断之前三思。 【44题详解】 根据第三段“You cannot determine a tree, or a person, by only one season.”并结合上文儿子们只看到梨树一个季节的样子就下结论，可推知determine意为“判断”。 【45题详解】 根据上文，第一个儿子在冬天看到梨树丑陋、弱小，父亲教导不要因为一个困难的季节（冬天）的痛苦而毁掉其余季节的快乐，因此“the pain of one season”指的是冬天。 【46题详解】 根据最后一段“Hold on through the difficult times and then better times are sure to come.”可知，困难时期会过去，更好的时期会到来。 【47题详解】 全文围绕“不要仅凭一个困难的季节就判断人生”这一主题展开，因此主旨是“不要用一个困难的季节来判断人生”。 D Short videos have quickly become a daily habit for most teenagers. But behind their enjoyment value lie lots of dangers that can influence your life in unexpected ways. One major problem is the loss of attention. Short videos are created to catch your attention in seconds. Your brain gets used to this non-stop stimulation (刺激), making it harder to pay attention to tasks that require patience—like reading a textbook, solving math problems, or listening to a teacher’s lesson. Studies show that teens who spend over 2 hours daily on short videos are 3 times more likely to have trouble with lasting attention in class. Another problem is the weakening (减弱) of critical (批判的) thinking. Most short videos offer simple, one-sided messages instead of encouraging deep thinking. For example, a 10-second clip about “how to be successful” might make hard life skills too simple. When you’re used to getting quick answers, you’ll find it difficult to judge information carefully or form your own opinions. Wasting time is also a serious problem. The average teen spends 1.5 hours daily on short videos, which adds up to over 500 hours a year. That’s time you could have spent practicing a sport, learning an instrument, or communicating with family. Worse, the “infinite (无限的) scroll” feature makes it easy to forget the time, leaving you tired when you finally put your phone down. Perhaps the most harmful effect is on confidence. Many short videos show a lot of unrealistic (不切实际的) lifestyles—perfect bodies, expensive tools, and non-stop fun. Comparing your common life to these short pieces can make you feel poor. Scientists believe that heavy users often report feelings of anxiety or worries, especially when they can’t “keep up” with what they see online. However, short videos aren’t all bad—they can connect you with new ideas or brighten an unlucky day. The key is balance (平衡). Set a time limit, choose materials that teach you something, and remember: what you see on screen is seldom real life. Put activities that help you grow first, and you’ll avoid the hidden dangers. 48. Why do students have trouble with attention in class after watching short videos? A. They feel tired from staying up late. B. They lose interest in school subjects completely. C. Their brains get used to strong continuous stimulation. D. Short videos make them avoid difficult learning tasks. 49. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Short videos are popular among all teenagers. B. All the lifestyles shown in short videos are real. C. Watching short videos can improve teenagers’ critical thinking. D. The average teen spends 1.5 hours every day on short videos. 50.

At the Milan Winter Olympics, she won the gold medal in the women’s aerials (自由式滑雪) final, successfully continuing to be the champion (冠军). She became the first athlete ever to achieve this feat in the event, adding another wonderful time to Chinese winter sports. Xu’s journey to success was long and hard. She first competed in the Winter Olympics in 2010 at the age of 20. Over the years, she won a silver medal, faced painful failures, and even thought about giving up. However, her love for the sport and strong will to win never changed. After 12 years of hard work, she finally completed the “Grand Slam” of her career, including all major international titles. After the competition, Xu spoke to the media. “As a child, I planted a seed in my heart—to become a world champion and represent my country proudly.” “Today, I have proved: a 35-year-old woman still has many possibilities. At any time, we can choose to stand up bravely and welcome our own success.” When asked about her secret, Xu smiled, “Age is never a problem,” she said. “No matter how old we are, we can still be the best. We can still stand on the top of the world at 35.” Xu Mengtao’s story teaches us something important. Dreams never end. Challenges and pain are real, but so is the power of perseverance (毅力).

Xu Mengtao: A Model of Perseverance. C A man had four sons. He wanted his sons not to judge (判断) things too quickly. So he sent them each in turn on a journey to go and look at a pear tree that was far away. He sent the first son in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in the summer, and the youngest in autumn. When they all came back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly and weak. The second son said, “No, it was covered with green leaves and full of promise.” The third son disagreed, saying it was filled with flowers that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, and it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. The youngest son said it was full of fruit, full of life and achievement. The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree’s life. He told them that you cannot determine a tree, or a person, by only one season. He also told them who they are — and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life — can only be judged at the end, when all the seasons are up. If you give up when it’s winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, the achievement of your autumn. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. Don’t judge life by one difficult season. Hold on through the difficult times and then better times are sure to come. 43. Why did the man send his four sons to look at the pear tree in four seasons? A. Because the man knew the pear tree completely. B. Because the sons didn’t get on well with each other. C. Because the sons wanted to enjoy the different sights. D. Because the man wanted his sons to think twice before judgement. 44. What does the underlined word “determine” mean according to the passage? A. Prepare. B. Judge. C. Think. D. Believe. 45. Which season does “the pain of one season” refer to in the last paragraph? A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter. 46. What can we infer from the passage? A. The pear tree was only beautiful in summer B. The four sons were not honest with their father. C. Difficult times will pass and better times will come. D. The youngest son was the cleverest of the four brothers. 47. What is the passage mainly about? A. The pear tree had four seasons. B. The man loved his sons very much. C. The youngest son is the cleverest man. D. Don’t judge life by one difficult season. D Short videos have quickly become a daily habit for most teenagers. But behind their enjoyment value lie lots of dangers that can influence your life in unexpected ways. One major problem is the loss of attention. Short videos are created to catch your attention in seconds. Your brain gets used to this non-stop stimulation (刺激), making it harder to pay attention to tasks that require patience—like reading a textbook, solving math problems, or listening to a teacher’s lesson. Studies show that teens who spend over 2 hours daily on short videos are 3 times more likely to have trouble with lasting attention in class. Another problem is the weakening (减弱) of critical (批判的) thinking. Most short videos offer simple, one-sided messages instead of encouraging deep thinking. For example, a 10-second clip about “how to be successful” might make hard life skills too simple. When you’re used to getting quick answers, you’ll find it difficult to judge information carefully or form your own opinions. Wasting time is also a serious problem. The average teen spends 1.5 hours daily on short videos, which adds up to over 500 hours a year. That’s time you could have spent practicing a sport, learning an instrument, or communicating with family. Worse, the “infinite (无限的) scroll” feature makes it easy to forget the time, leaving you tired when you finally put your phone down. Perhaps the most harmful effect is on confidence. Many short videos show a lot of unrealistic (不切实际的) lifestyles—perfect bodies, expensive tools, and non-stop fun. Comparing your common life to these short pieces can make you feel poor. Scientists believe that heavy users often report feelings of anxiety or worries, especially when they can’t “keep up” with what they see online. However, short videos aren’t all bad—they can connect you with new ideas or brighten an unlucky day. The key is balance (平衡). Set a time limit, choose materials that teach you something, and remember: what you see on screen is seldom real life. Put activities that help you grow first, and you’ll avoid the hidden dangers. 48. Why do students have trouble with attention in class after watching short videos? A. They feel tired from staying up late. B. They lose interest in school subjects completely. C. Their brains get used to strong continuous stimulation. D. Short videos make them avoid difficult learning tasks. 49. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Short videos are popular among all teenagers. B. All the lifestyles shown in short videos are real. C. Watching short videos can improve teenagers’ critical thinking. D. The average teen spends 1.5 hours every day on short videos. 50. In which part of a magazine can we most probably read the passage? A. Fashion. B. Teen Health. C. Sports News. D. School Life. 51. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Teenagers should never watch short videos. B. Teenagers have a new lifestyle on the Internet. C. Short videos help teenagers learn new ideas quickly. D. Short videos have dangers but can be used properly with balance. 52. What would be the best structure of the passage?
