Summer presents a collection of festivals that combine fun, charity, and awareness. Here are four special celebrations happening in June:
National Go Barefoot Day (June 1)
Established after the 2004 tsunami, this day promotes barefoot walking for health benefits like stronger muscles while supporting Soles4Souls, a non-profit that has provided 19 million shoes globally. You can join barefoot activities or organize shoe collections. By simply taking off your shoes, you can improve your own health while helping children get the shoes they need.
World Oceans Day (June 8)
Oceans cover 66% of Earth and provide 50% of our oxygen, yet 8 million tons of plastic waste pollute them yearly. This day honors the ocean’s irreplaceable roles while inspiring worldwide participation. People can get involved by cleaning beaches, reducing single-use plastics, and watching educational films — turning awareness into action for a healthier planet.
Be a Kid Again Day (June 12)
This lighthearted day encourages adults to relive childhood joys — whether sliding down playground slides, building sandcastles, or rewatching classic kids’ movies. Beyond personal enjoyment, the celebration also supports meaningful causes like A Kid Again, a US non-profit organization that provides fun-filled adventures for children with life-threatening illnesses.
Helen Keller Day (June 27)
Held every year on June 27, this day honors Helen Keller (1880-1968) who became the first person with her disabilities to earn a college degree and wrote 12 books. While celebrating her amazing life, the day also recognizes all those who support the blind and deaf community through events like charity fashion shows and public readings of Keller’s inspirational works.
1. Which festival combines physical health with caring for children?
A. Be a Kid Again Day. B. Helen Keller Day.
C. National Go Barefoot Day. D. World Oceans Day.
2. Who benefit most from the organization A Kid Again?
A. The young seeking adventures. B. Parents facing health challenges.

【答案】1. C 2. D 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍六月的四个结合趣味、慈善与意识的特别节日。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据National Go Barefoot Day (June 1)部分中的“Established after the 2004 tsunami, this day promotes barefoot walking for health benefits like stronger muscles while supporting Soles4Souls, a non-profit that has provided 19 million shoes globally. You can join barefoot activities or organize shoe collections. By simply taking off your shoes, you can improve your own health while helping children get the shoes they need.(该节日于2004年海啸后设立,这一天提倡光脚行走,以获得更强壮肌肉等健康益处,同时支持Soles4Souls——一家已在全球提供1900万双鞋子的非营利组织。你可以参加光脚活动或组织鞋子收集活动。只需脱下鞋子,你就能改善自己的健康,同时帮助孩子们获得所需的鞋子)”可知,“全国光脚日”将身体健康与关爱儿童相结合。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Be a Kid Again Day (June 12)部分中的“Beyond personal enjoyment, the celebration also supports meaningful causes like A Kid Again, a US non-profit organization that provides fun-filled adventures for children with life-threatening illnesses.(除了个人享受之外,这个庆祝活动还支持有意义的事业,比如A Kid Again,这是美国一家非营利组织,为患有危及生命疾病的儿童提供充满乐趣的冒险活动)”可知,A Kid Again组织的主要受益者是与严重疾病作斗争的儿童。故选D项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据首段“Summer presents a collection of festivals that combine fun, charity, and awareness. Here are four special celebrations happening in June(夏季有一系列融合趣味、慈善与社会意识的节日。以下是六月将举办的四个特别庆典)”以及下文介绍的四个结合趣味、慈善与意识的特别节日可知,这四个节日的共同之处在于都是为社会公益而举办的庆祝活动。故选D项。
We find the owl at the very edge of our woods the morning after the storm. Wings flight-frozen and round eyes glassy. I touch its feathers lightly with my fingertip and I’m surprised because they still feel real even though the owl has slipped away somewhere else and Dad is already digging a hole for it in the rain-soaked earth.
I lift its body and it’s huge in my hands but the hollow bones do most of the work for me and I almost think the owl might shake the stiffness from its feathers and fly away. I really don’t think this one should go into a hole in the ground. I say that to Dad and he says that it’s the circle of life and that now the owl will become part of nature again. Feeding the soil with its flesh and growing the roots of plants from its feathers.
Dad shifts the last of the dirt with his spade and sits down at the base of a tree with a huff of air that smokes around him. I put the bird in the hole and mark it with a smooth pebble (鹅卵石) so I’ll always know.
After we’ve buried the owl, we walk all around the woods and clear the worst of the damage from the winds and the rain. The damage isn’t as bad as it’s been before and it feels like the storm has cleaned everything back to being new and fresh. I use my hawk eyes and search the ground in flicks and sweeps and I find treasures in the rain-raked earth just like always. Pieces of pottery and something that could be a Roman coin. I slip them into my pocket and they bump against each other to tell their stories to me, but I’ll listen later.
I help Dad load the best of the fallen branches on to the trailer so we can cut them for fire wood or maybe a bonfire, and then we drive over the muddy paths and back to our house.
4. What do we know about the owl when the author finds it?
A. It is already dead. B. It is hidden in a hole.
C. It is to stiff to fly away. D. It is trying to flee the woods.
5. Why does the author mark the hole with a pebble?
A. To make future visits convenient. B. To show sympathy for the owl.
C. To keep the site clear of plants. D. To draw the attention of passers-by.
6. What message does the author want to convey by mentioning the owl?
A. Storms make trees take deeper roots. B. In nature’s embrace, time stands still.
C. The darkest hour has only sixty minutes. D. With every leaf’s fall, a new life rises.
7. What does “I’ll listen later” in paragraph 4 reveal about the author?
A. Money-driven. B. Wonder-seeking.
C. Artistically talented. D. Emotionally sound.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和父亲在暴风雨后埋葬了一只死去的猫头鹰,并在树林里清理暴风雨造成的破坏,同时发现了一些“宝藏”的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Wings flight - frozen and round eyes glassy. I touch its feathers lightly with my fingertip and I'm surprised because they still feel real even though the owl has slipped away somewhere else and Dad is already digging a hole for it in the rain - soaked earth.(猫头鹰的翅膀展开,双眼圆睁,目光呆滞。我用指尖轻轻触碰它的羽毛,心中满是讶异,因为它们摸起来仍然是那么真实,尽管这只猫头鹰的生命已消逝,而父亲已在被雨水浸湿的土地上为它挖好了墓穴)”可知,猫头鹰的翅膀僵硬,眼睛无神,已经死去,所以作者的父亲才会为它挖洞埋葬,故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“I put the bird in the hole and mark it with a smooth pebble (鹅卵石) so I’ll always know.(我把那只鸟放进洞里,然后用一块光滑的鹅卵石做标记,这样我就永远知道它埋在哪里了)”可知,作者用鹅卵石标记这个洞是为了自己总能知道猫头鹰埋葬的位置,方便日后再来。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Dad says that it’s the circle of life and that now the owl will become part of nature again. Feeding the soil with its flesh and growing the roots of plants from its feathers.(爸爸说这就是生命的循环,这只猫头鹰现在又将成为大自然的一部分。它的肉身滋养着土壤,它的羽毛中会长出植物的根须)”可知,父亲说这是生命的循环,猫头鹰的身体会滋养土壤,它的羽毛会让植物生根发芽,意味着旧的生命逝去,新的生命会随之升起。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段 “I use my hawk eyes and search the ground in flicks and sweeps and I find treasures in the rain-raked earth just like always. Pieces of pottery and something that could be a Roman coin. I slip them into my pocket and they bump against each other to tell their stories to me.(我像鹰眼一样扫视着地面,不断搜寻着,而且总能在被雨水冲刷过的泥土里发现宝贝。有一片片的陶器,还有一个可能是古罗马硬币的东西。我把它们放进口袋,它们相互碰撞着,向我诉说着它们的故事)”可知,作者把在地上发现的 “宝藏”放进兜里,说稍后再听它们的故事,体现了作者充满好奇心,喜欢探索奇妙事物。故选B。
It is no surprise that the English language contains such a wide variety of expressions and phrases including dogs, which have been constant partners with people for thousands of years. The observations of dog behaviors have inspired us to take their individual characteristics into our language.
Did your roommates make a terrible mess of the dorm room while you were gone? You could describe this terrible state as “a dog’s breakfast”. This British phrase means a disorganized state of things or a bad mix of different things. It appeared during a time when people would feed their dogs leftovers from last night’s dinner or other food items they happened to have on hand for breakfast. The phrase creates such a powerful scene showing a complete mess if you truly picture it. Interestingly, the phrase “dressed like a dog’s dinner” is quite different — “someone who is overdressed or improperly dressed”.
You would be “barking up the wrong tree” if you are following a mistaken or misguided thought or action. This term dates back to the hunt of raccoon (浣熊) with the help of dogs. From time to time, a raccoon fools the dogs, which crowd around a tree, barking loudly, not realizing the quarry has taken a different way.
Many people even describe the weather by using the image of dogs. The “dog days”, dating back to ancient Rome, refers to the hottest days of the year in which we feel lazy or unable to make great efforts. It was the Romans who first noticed that the burning heat of the summer seemed to come with the appearance of Sirius, the so-called “dog star”, which was a part of the Canis Major (“big dog”) constellation (星座). But even the coldest nights have interesting idioms (习惯用语) and history with them. One Australian idiom describes the practice of sleeping alongside a dog for warmth during cold evenings — a very cold night might need more than one dog, so it is a “three-dog night”.
While dog-related idioms are common in use in many people’s everyday language today, the stories and history behind the idioms may lead us onto a new exciting journey of exploration.
8. Why are there a large number of dog-related idioms in English?
A. People summarized the ways dogs cooperate with humans.
B. People’s constant observation of dogs inspired the idioms.
C. Dogs are animals with special features favored by humans.
D. Dogs’ characteristics are the main source of English idioms.
9. Which of the following may be described as “a dog’s breakfast”?
A. A delicious meal. B. A messy kitchen.
C. An unsatisfactory ending. D. An improperly-dressed person.
10. What does the underlined word “quarry” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The raccoon. B. The tree. C. The hunter. D. The master.
11. What was the origin of the idiom “dog days”?
A. Dogs liked to hang out in summer.
B. The heat in summer got dogs barking.
C. Dogs were Romans’ favourite animal partners.
D. A star with “dog” in its name appeared at this time.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英语中存在大量与狗相关的习语,以及这些习语背后的故事和历史,展现了人们对狗行为的观察如何启发了这些习语的产生。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The observations of dog behaviors have inspired us to take their individual characteristics into our language. (对狗行为的观察启发我们将它们的个性特征融入我们的语言中。)”可知,人们对狗的不断观察启发了这些与狗相关的习语。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Did your roommates make a terrible mess of the dorm room while you were gone? You could describe this terrible state as “a dog’s breakfast”. This British phrase means a disorganized state of things or a bad mix of different things. (你不在的时候,你的室友把宿舍弄得一团糟吗?你可以把这种糟糕的状态描述为“狗的早餐”。这个英国短语意思是事情杂乱无章,或者不同事物的糟糕混合。)”可知,“a dog’s breakfast”指的是杂乱无章的状态,选项B“一个杂乱的厨房”符合这一描述。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“You would be “barking up the wrong tree” if you are following a mistaken or misguided thought or action. This term dates back to the hunt of raccoon (浣熊) with the help of dogs. From time to time, a raccoon fools the dogs, which crowd around a tree, barking loudly, not realizing the quarry has taken a different way. (如果你遵循错误或误导性的想法或行动,那你就是“找错对象了”。这个术语可以追溯到在狗的帮助下猎浣熊。时不时地,浣熊会愚弄狗,狗会围着一棵树大声吠叫,却没有意识到 已经走了另一条路。)”可知,此处在描述猎浣熊的场景,狗围着树叫,却没意识到猎物走了另一条路,这里的“quarry”指的就是被猎捕的“浣熊”。故选A项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The “dog days”, dating back to ancient Rome, refers to the hottest days of the year in which we feel lazy or unable to make great efforts. It was the Romans who first noticed that the burning heat of the summer seemed to come with the appearance of Sirius, the so-called “dog star”, which was a part of the Canis Major (“big dog”) constellation (星座). (“三伏天”可以追溯到古罗马,指的是一年中最热的日子,在这些日子里我们会感到懒惰或无法付出很大的努力。是罗马人首先注意到,夏天的酷热似乎随着天狼星的出现而到来,天狼星被称为“狗星”,是大犬座(“大狗”)星座的一部分。)”可知,“三伏天”这个习语的起源是一颗名字中有“狗”的星星在这个时候出现。故选D项。
Sargassum is a kind of floating seaweed (海草) that has been growing in size every year. It looks pretty in the ocean. However, sargassum can almost completely block out sunlight. Important kinds of seagrass suffer when light is blocked by seaweed. As sargassum piles up on beaches, it makes it hard for mother sea turtles to lay eggs, and nearly impossible for baby turtles to return to the sea.
So much sargassum piles up on beaches, and it breaks down slowly, giving out a bad smell like rotten eggs. “Even when governments clear the seaweed from beaches, they face problems of getting rid of it. Heavy machines can put turtle nests in danger. Some people have thought about using sargassum as a fertilizer (肥料), but it contains harmful heavy metals. So far, removing these harmful metal s costs too much to make it worth doing,” said the scientist Steven Kelley.
Sargassum grows faster in warming oceans, so climate change is definitely part of the problem. But scientists believe the unusual growth of the seawood is also caused by huge quantities of fertilizers washed into the ocean from farmlands.
Scientists and students are working hard to figure out how to deal with sargassum. Some suggest using sargassum as a building material, or possibly a fuel. One unusual solution is to drop it deep in the sea by using robots. Sargassum takes in huge amounts of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) as it grows. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is one important part of fighting the climate crisis. Sargassum could deal with this carbon dioxide in the deep ocean. Scientists are still testing this idea to see if it will work.
For now, scientists say the quickest solution is to stop filling the ocean with fertilizers. It is wise for farmers to change the way they farm. Moreover, the seaweed’s growth can have serious effects on islands that depend heavily on tourism and fishing. Island communities play a role in cleaning up the seaweed and promoting responsible tourism. At the same time, officials have to work towards changing policies to solve the issues.
12. What can we know about sargassum according to the first paragraph?
A. It affects the ecosystem negatively.
B. It adds to the variety of life in the ocean.
C. It causes a shortage of food for sea animals.
D. It creates a good living environment for seagrass.
13. What does Steven Kelley mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Reusing metal s from sargassum is a wise choice.
B. Fertilizers can help sargarrum break down quickly.
C. Dealing with sargassum safely is challenging work.
D. Practical ways have been developed to remove sargassum.
14. How can the unusual solution mentioned in Paragraph 4 do good to the environment?
A. By spreading sargassum widely to increase sunlight.
B. By changing sargassum into a renewable energy source.
C. By employing sargassum as a cleaner for ocean pollution.
D. By making use of sargassum’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Public attempts to recycle seaside sargassum.
B. The change in sargassum’s living environment.
C. Challenges and approaches concerning sargassum.
D. The influence of sargassum’s growth on climate change.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,本文主要说明了处理马尾藻的一些建议和方法以及所面临的困难和挑战等。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Important kinds of seagrass suffer when light is blocked by seaweed. As sargassum piles up on beaches, it makes it hard for mother sea turtles to lay eggs, and nearly impossible for baby turtles to return to the sea. (当光线被海藻遮挡时,重要种类的海草会受到影响。由于马尾藻堆积在海滩上,海龟妈妈很难产卵,而小海龟几乎不可能返回大海。)”可知,马尾藻对生态系统有负面影响,故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Even when governments clear the seaweed from beaches, they face problems of getting rid of it. Heavy machines can put turtle nests in danger. Some people have thought about using sargassum as a fertilizer (肥料), but it contains harmful heavy metals. So far, removing these harmful metals costs too much to make it worth doing (即使政府清除了海滩上的海藻,他们也面临着摆脱海藻的问题。重型机器会使海龟巢处于危险之中。有些人考虑过用马尾藻作为肥料,但它含有有害的重金属。到目前为止,去除这些有害金属的成本太高,不值得去做)”可知,安全处理马尾藻是一项具有挑战性的工作。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Sargassum takes in huge amounts of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) as it grows. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is one important part of fighting the climate crisis. Sargassum could deal with this carbon dioxide in the deep ocean. (马尾藻在生长过程中会吸收大量的二氧化碳。从大气中去除二氧化碳是应对气候危机的一个重要组成部分。马尾藻可以处理深海中的二氧化碳。)”可知,本段提到的不寻常的解决方案通过利用马尾藻吸收二氧化碳的能力从而对环境有益,故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第四段中“Scientists and students are working hard to figure out how to deal with sargassum. (科学家和学生们正在努力研究如何处理马尾藻。)”可知,本文主要说明了处理马尾藻的一些建议和方法以及所面临的困难和挑战等,故选C。

1. 你的建议;
2. 说明理由。
注意:
1. 词数100-120左右;
2. 可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

【答案】One Possible Version:
Dear Chris,
I’m thrilled to hear about your upcoming winter trip to Hangzhou! For your first visit, I highly recommend a self-organized tour though package tours offer convenience.
Hangzhou is a city with excellent public transport, including metro and bike-sharing systems, making it easy to explore independently. Key attractions like West Lake and Hefang Street are well-connected, so you can linger at places you love at your own pace — whether it’s sipping tea by the lake or strolling through ancient streets — without the rush of a package tour. With your adventurous spirit, a DIY approach will allow you to fully immerse yourself in the city’s beauty.
I’d be happy to help you plan a detailed route. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Yours,
Li Hua

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was a cold, snowy evening. Tommy was running as fast as he could, focused on nothing but his destination----the shop on the street corner. Two weeks ago he saw figurines(小塑像) of Marvel superheroes on the shelves and felt he had to have one. He’s been walking the neighbor’s dog ever since then to earn money to fulfil his little dream. He was so excited and barely noticing the world around him. Maybe that’s why he tripped over the legs of a homeless woman, who was sitting on the pavement, her back against the wall. He murmured(低语) "sorry" and moved on to his destination.
Once he entered the shop, he went straight to the shelves with figurines. Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, and many more----all of his admired heroes. With his heart pounding like crazy he reached for Spiderman.
“You like these, true believer?”
Tommy turned around. An old man was standing behind him with a wide smile on his face.
“Y-yes, …Yes, they’re awesome!” answered Tommy. “They’re strong and fast and help other people a lot ...”the boy looked at figurines in admiration. “I wish I could be a superhero too.”
“Then become one!” said the old man.
“How?” Tommy asked in surprise. “I don’t have any superpowers.”
“And why would you need them?” the old man smiled. Seeing the confusion on the boy's face, he squatted(蹲下) and put his hands on Tommy's arms. “Did you know that shopkeeper lady over there has a disabled husband? She’s been working hard and taking care of him for years. I’ve never heard a word of complaint from her. And this person ---” he pointed at a redhead man, who just entered the shop. “He’s a firefighter; he’s saved countless lives. He never gives up, no matter how dangerous the situation seems to be.”
The old man looked Tommy in the eyes and smiled. “You don’t need a superpower to be a hero for someone else. The path of a superhero starts not in the mind, not in the muscles, but in the heart.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely. Finally he raised his head. "So I am supposed to...” he stopped mid-sentence when he realized that he was alone. He turned his head left and right, but the old man was nowhere to be seen. His eyes lit up---- he already had an idea of what he should do. He looked at figurines for the last time and moved towards the counter. "Two sandwiches and a cup of tea please, "he said, and then returned, food in hand.
The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time. Tommy came closer and carefully gave the woman his buys. Her eyes opened wide in surprise, then filled with tears. “Thank you," she whispered. Tommy bowed his head, turned around and went back home. He was moving faster and faster and finally he started to run. Strange energy filling his body made him feel like he could fly. When he finally stopped, he was breathing heavily, but he didn’t feel tired. He smiled happily --- it was a wonderful feeling. And nothing could stop it.
【解析】

Summer presents a collection of festivals that combine fun, charity, and awareness. Here are four special celebrations happening in June:
National Go Barefoot Day (June 1)
Established after the 2004 tsunami, this day promotes barefoot walking for health benefits like stronger muscles while supporting Soles4Souls, a non-profit that has provided 19 million shoes globally. You can join barefoot activities or organize shoe collections. By simply taking off your shoes, you can improve your own health while helping children get the shoes they need.
World Oceans Day (June 8)
Oceans cover 66% of Earth and provide 50% of our oxygen, yet 8 million tons of plastic waste pollute them yearly. This day honors the ocean’s irreplaceable roles while inspiring worldwide participation. People can get involved by cleaning beaches, reducing single-use plastics, and watching educational films — turning awareness into action for a healthier planet.
Be a Kid Again Day (June 12)
This lighthearted day encourages adults to relive childhood joys — whether sliding down playground slides, building sandcastles, or rewatching classic kids’ movies. Beyond personal enjoyment, the celebration also supports meaningful causes like A Kid Again, a US non-profit organization that provides fun-filled adventures for children with life-threatening illnesses.
Helen Keller Day (June 27)
Held every year on June 27, this day honors Helen Keller (1880-1968) who became the first person with her disabilities to earn a college degree and wrote 12 books. While celebrating her amazing life, the day also recognizes all those who support the blind and deaf community through events like charity fashion shows and public readings of Keller’s inspirational works.

We find the owl at the very edge of our woods the morning after the storm. Wings flight-frozen and round eyes glassy. I touch its feathers lightly with my fingertip and I’m surprised because they still feel real even though the owl has slipped away somewhere else and Dad is already digging a hole for it in the rain-soaked earth.
I lift its body and it’s huge in my hands but the hollow bones do most of the work for me and I almost think the owl might shake the stiffness from its feathers and fly away. I really don’t think this one should go into a hole in the ground. I say that to Dad and he says that it’s the circle of life and that now the owl will become part of nature again. Feeding the soil with its flesh and growing the roots of plants from its feathers.
Dad shifts the last of the dirt with his spade and sits down at the base of a tree with a huff of air that smokes around him. I put the bird in the hole and mark it with a smooth pebble (鹅卵石) so I’ll always know.
After we’ve buried the owl, we walk all around the woods and clear the worst of the damage from the winds and the rain. The damage isn’t as bad as it’s been before and it feels like the storm has cleaned everything back to being new and fresh. I use my hawk eyes and search the ground in flicks and sweeps and I find treasures in the rain-raked earth just like always. Pieces of pottery and something that could be a Roman coin. I slip them into my pocket and they bump against each other to tell their stories to me, but I’ll listen later.
I help Dad load the best of the fallen branches on to the trailer so we can cut them for fire wood or maybe a bonfire, and then we drive over the muddy paths and back to our house.
4. What do we know about the owl when the author finds it?
A. It is already dead. B. It is hidden in a hole.
C. It is to stiff to fly away. D. It is trying to flee the woods.
5. Why does the author mark the hole with a pebble?
A. To make future visits convenient. B. To show sympathy for the owl.
C. To keep the site clear of plants. D. To draw the attention of passers-by.
6. What message does the author want to convey by mentioning the owl?
A. Storms make trees take deeper roots. B. In nature’s embrace, time stands still.
C. The darkest hour has only sixty minutes. D. With every leaf’s fall, a new life rises.
7. What does “I’ll listen later” in paragraph 4 reveal about the author?
A. Money-driven. B. Wonder-seeking.
C. Artistically talented. D. Emotionally sound.
It is no surprise that the English language contains such a wide variety of expressions and phrases including dogs, which have been constant partners with people for thousands of years. The observations of dog behaviors have inspired us to take their individual characteristics into our language.
Did your roommates make a terrible mess of the dorm room while you were gone? You could describe this terrible state as “a dog’s breakfast”. This British phrase means a disorganized state of things or a bad mix of different things. It appeared during a time when people would feed their dogs leftovers from last night’s dinner or other food items they happened to have on hand for breakfast. The phrase creates such a powerful scene showing a complete mess if you truly picture it. Interestingly, the phrase “dressed like a dog’s dinner” is quite different — “someone who is overdressed or improperly dressed”.
You would be “barking up the wrong tree” if you are following a mistaken or misguided thought or action. This term dates back to the hunt of raccoon (浣熊) with the help of dogs. From time to time, a raccoon fools the dogs, which crowd around a tree, barking loudly, not realizing the quarry has taken a different way.
Many people even describe the weather by using the image of dogs. The “dog days”, dating back to ancient Rome, refers to the hottest days of the year in which we feel lazy or unable to make great efforts. It was the Romans who first noticed that the burning heat of the summer seemed to come with the appearance of Sirius, the so-called “dog star”, which was a part of the Canis Major (“big dog”) constellation (星座). But even the coldest nights have interesting idioms (习惯用语) and history with them. One Australian idiom describes the practice of sleeping alongside a dog for warmth during cold evenings — a very cold night might need more than one dog, so it is a “three-dog night”.
While dog-related idioms are common in use in many people’s everyday language today, the stories and history behind the idioms may lead us onto a new exciting journey of exploration.
8. Why are there a large number of dog-related idioms in English?
A. People summarized the ways dogs cooperate with humans.
B. People’s constant observation of dogs inspired the idioms.
C. Dogs are animals with special features favored by humans.
D. Dogs’ characteristics are the main source of English idioms.
9. Which of the following may be described as “a dog’s breakfast”?
A. A delicious meal. B. A messy kitchen.
C. An unsatisfactory ending. D. An improperly-dressed person.
10. What does the underlined word “quarry” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The raccoon. B. The tree. C. The hunter. D. The master.
11. What was the origin of the idiom “dog days”?
A. Dogs liked to hang out in summer.
B. The heat in summer got dogs barking.

Sargassum is a kind of floating seaweed (海草) that has been growing in size every year. It looks pretty in the ocean. However, sargassum can almost completely block out sunlight. Important kinds of seagrass suffer when light is blocked by seaweed. As sargassum piles up on beaches, it makes it hard for mother sea turtles to lay eggs, and nearly impossible for baby turtles to return to the sea.
So much sargassum piles up on beaches, and it breaks down slowly, giving out a bad smell like rotten eggs. “Even when governments clear the seaweed from beaches, they face problems of getting rid of it. Heavy machines can put turtle nests in danger. Some people have thought about using sargassum as a fertilizer (肥料), but it contains harmful heavy metals. So far, removing these harmful metal s costs too much to make it worth doing,” said the scientist Steven Kelley.
Sargassum grows faster in warming oceans, so climate change is definitely part of the problem. But scientists believe the unusual growth of the seawood is also caused by huge quantities of fertilizers washed into the ocean from farmlands.
Scientists and students are working hard to figure out how to deal with sargassum. Some suggest using sargassum as a building material, or possibly a fuel. One unusual solution is to drop it deep in the sea by using robots. Sargassum takes in huge amounts of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) as it grows. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is one important part of fighting the climate crisis. Sargassum could deal with this carbon dioxide in the deep ocean. Scientists are still testing this idea to see if it will work.
For now, scientists say the quickest solution is to stop filling the ocean with fertilizers. It is wise for farmers to change the way they farm. Moreover, the seaweed’s growth can have serious effects on islands that depend heavily on tourism and fishing. Island communities play a role in cleaning up the seaweed and promoting responsible tourism. At the same time, officials have to work towards changing policies to solve the issues.
12. What can we know about sargassum according to the first paragraph?
A. It affects the ecosystem negatively.
B. It adds to the variety of life in the ocean.
C. It causes a shortage of food for sea animals.
D. It creates a good living environment for seagrass.
13. What does Steven Kelley mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Reusing metal s from sargassum is a wise choice.
B. Fertilizers can help sargarrum break down quickly.
C. Dealing with sargassum safely is challenging work.
D. Practical ways have been developed to remove sargassum.
14. How can the unusual solution mentioned in Paragraph 4 do good to the environment?
A. By spreading sargassum widely to increase sunlight.
B. By changing sargassum into a renewable energy source.
C. By employing sargassum as a cleaner for ocean pollution.
D. By making use of sargassum’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Public attempts to recycle seaside sargassum.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was a cold, snowy evening. Tommy was running as fast as he could, focused on nothing but his destination----the shop on the street corner. Two weeks ago he saw figurines(小塑像) of Marvel superheroes on the shelves and felt he had to have one. He’s been walking the neighbor’s dog ever since then to earn money to fulfil his little dream. He was so excited and barely noticing the world around him. Maybe that’s why he tripped over the legs of a homeless woman, who was sitting on the pavement, her back against the wall. He murmured(低语) "sorry" and moved on to his destination.
Once he entered the shop, he went straight to the shelves with figurines. Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, and many more----all of his admired heroes. With his heart pounding like crazy he reached for Spiderman.
“You like these, true believer?”
Tommy turned around. An old man was standing behind him with a wide smile on his face.
“Y-yes, …Yes, they’re awesome!” answered Tommy. “They’re strong and fast and help other people a lot ...”the boy looked at figurines in admiration. “I wish I could be a superhero too.”
“Then become one!” said the old man.
“How?” Tommy asked in surprise. “I don’t have any superpowers.”
“And why would you need them?” the old man smiled. Seeing the confusion on the boy's face, he squatted(蹲下) and put his hands on Tommy's arms. “Did you know that shopkeeper lady over there has a disabled husband? She’s been working hard and taking care of him for years. I’ve never heard a word of complaint from her. And this person ---” he pointed at a redhead man, who just entered the shop. “He’s a firefighter; he’s saved countless lives. He never gives up, no matter how dangerous the situation seems to be.”
The old man looked Tommy in the eyes and smiled. “You don’t need a superpower to be a hero for someone else. The path of a superhero starts not in the mind, not in the muscles, but in the heart.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely.

The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time.
