Hot Springs National Park This national park is unique because itˈs more of an urban park than a distant wilderness. Located right next to the city of Hot Springs, this is also the countryˈs smallest national park, covering 5,550 acres. The main attractions here are the historic bathhouses and hot springs that the park was established to protect. Acadia National Park This park on the Maine Coast is home to various plants and animals and the tallest mountain on the Atlantic Coast. Today visitors come to Acadia to hike rock peaks, bike historic carriage roads, or relax and enjoy the coastal scenery. Shenandoah National Park Occupied by settlers for at least 100 years, it covers 200,000 acres of Virginia wilderness. The 105-mile Skyline Drive traces the Blue Ridge Mountains and offers many jumping-off points to see the beauty of this park. Beyond the scenic drive, you can explore the parkˈs many offerings through hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Indiana Dunes National Park Stretching along 15 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline and covering more than 15,000 acres, this Midwestern park is ideal for relaxing on a beach, hiking the 50 miles of trails, and exploring the diverse ecosystem. The sands are the main attraction with rare plants, and various birds. The national park is free to visit. 21.What is typical of Hot Springs National Park? （） A. It seems like a city park. B.

B In today’s digital age when you can get information in a blink of an eye, there is a concern about children developing an appreciation for reading printed books. That’s why communities in Australia have come up with a way to spread a love of books in the younger generations. Communities have dealt with this problem by bringing libraries to where the kids are, in the streets. The little libraries are made of weatherproof boxes that are set up outside of houses or public spaces and are filled with books. People can take books they haven’t read and donate ones they have to the libraries. Street Library Australia, nonprofit, was started by Nick Lowe after he saw a Little Free Library in a trip to the US. In 2015 it planned to build 30 libraries, the idea mushroomed and now there are 4,500 registered street libraries in Australia. "It just grew and grew," Lowe said. The libraries come in all shapes and sizes from reformed doll houses to old kitchen cupboards. They are completely voluntary and anyone can start one. Pamela Zielke who runs a library called Pam’s Pantry gives out toys and craft supplies along with books. As an early childhood educator, she started her library with the goal of stopping books from ending up becoming waste. But the libraries are doing much more than just providing books and other donated items to people. The street libraries are also building community. "It’s a little stopping place outside your house," Lowe said. "It’s a great way to meet people in your neighborhood who are also booklovers, recycle books and find new books. But even more importantly, the libraries are bringing communities closer together." 24.How do communities in Australia develop children’s love for books? A. By borrowing good books from the libraries. B. By providing book appreciation classes. C. By exchanging books with one another. D. By building libraries close to their homes. 25.What does the underlined word "mushroomed" mean in Paragraph 3? A. Became acceptable. B. Grew fast. C. Stayed current. D. Changed slowly. 26.What can we know about the street libraries? A. They are set up voluntarily. B. They have the same size and shape. C. They bring owners many profits. D. They sell recycled toys and books. 27.What does Lowe think of the street libraries? A. They connect communities together. B. They improve education of residents. C. They save money on buying books. D. They promote economic development. C Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In fact, many people never read a poem once they get out of high school. It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the nineteenth century, a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at that time, nor movie theatres, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversions. However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self - education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life. How did things change? Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems? There are, I believe, three factors: poets, teachers, and we ourselves. Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the poem. Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions unfavourable to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night, and that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged. Poets failed the reader, so did teachers. They want their students to know something about the skills of a poem; they want their students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles. 28.Why is reading poems thought to be a social act in the nineteenth century? A. It built a link among people. B. It helped unite a community. C. It was a source of self-education. D. It was a source of pleasure. 29.What does the underlined word "diversions" in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Stories. B. Changes. C. Amusements. D. Concentrations. 30.What is the main cause of the great gap between readers and poetry? A. Students are poorly educated in high school. B. Poems have become difficult to understand. C. Students are becoming less interested in poetry. D. TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry. 31.What does the author try to tell us by writing the text? A. The history and changes of poetry. B. The correct way for teachers to teach poetry. C. The failure of poet in people’s life nowadays. D. The reason why people aren’t keen on poetry today. D We have scenic beauty all around us, but looking around, much of it is covered with food packages, plastic bottles, and other rubbish. Despite warning signs and boards that constantly say "No littering here!", people are unwilling to understand the significance of keeping public places clean. However, Khao Yai National Park in Thailand has taken an unusual step to make sure tourists clean up their own trash. The park has begun sending trash back to the litterbugs (乱扔垃圾者) with a polite note saying "You forgot these things at Khao Yai National Park" to remind people that littering in public places is against the rules. Mr. Varawut Silpa-archa, minister of Natural Resources and Environment of Thailand, posted a series of pictures on his social media related with the new step. He posted a picture of a trash-filled box that was ready to be shipped with the words—"YOUR TRASH—WE’LL SEND IT BACK TO YOU." Varawut explained that throwing about trash could endanger wild animals, which might eat it by mistake when searching for food. He said littering in the park could carry a fine of up to 500,000 Thai baht, a prison sentence of up to five years, or both. And the offending (违法的) visitors will also be banned from returning to the park. The officials matched the trash to its owners by taking address details from the camping equipment rental forms. To make the process easier, people will be allowed to enter the park only after writing down their address. "We think Khao Yai National Park’s new step has made a great contribution to maintaining our country’s natural resources," Charinya Kiatlapnachai, director of the tourism authority of Thailand, told The Washington Post. " This gesture is an effective way to ensure we all do our part to help our country remain clean, safe and beautiful." 32.What is the new step of Khao Yai National Park to control littering? A. Reporting litterbugs to the police. B. Forcing litterbugs to clean up the park. C. Posting photos of litterbugs on social media. D. Warning and returning the litterbugs’ trash. 33.What punishment will litterbugs get if they litter in the park? A. Their behavior will be exposed in social media. B. They will not be allowed to visit the park again. C. They could be charged up to 500,000 U. S. dollars. D. They could be sentenced to over 5 years in prison. 34.How can officials find the owners of trash? A. By referring to their rental forms. B. By viewing cameras inside the park. C. By matching finger prints on the trash. D. By contacting them through email. 35.What does Charinya Kiatlapnachai think of Khao Yai National Park’s action? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Unclear. 三、阅读七选五：本题共5小题，共12.5分。 When the monthly electricity bill came home, parents always couldn’t believe their eyes, as the amount was much more than they needed.   (36)   Here are some tips for parents to educate their children on how to save energy.

It wasn’t anything fancy, just a sandwich and some salad, with a cup of tea to wash it all down. She seemed to be in her own little world, staring out the window every now and then, like she was waiting for something. After a bit, she got up, paid for her meal at the counter and left. Her table was still a mess, with bits of her meal left behind. I, a young boy, had a hard time, and had been watching her from the table around the corner. I was in rough shape. My clothes were too big. My hair was all over the place, and my face had streaks (条痕) of dirt on it. When the lady left, I saw my chance. I quickly sat down and started wolfing down the leftovers (吃剩的食物) like it was the best meal I’d ever had. But then, the waiter walked over. He was an older guy who’d probably seen everything. He didn’t say anything at first, just watched me for a second. I got scared, stopped eating, and tears started to fill my eyes. I thought the waiter would kick me out for sure. Instead, the waiter took away the half-eaten plate, and my heart sank. I got up to leave, but before I could get far, the waiter came back and asked me to wait for a moment. The waiter gave me a full and fresh meal. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式作答。 Seeing what was happening, all the people in the cafe smiled._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I couldn’t thank the waiter enough with a full stomach and a happy heart._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案 1.B2.B3.A4.B5.C6~7.CB8~9.CA10~12.BAC13~16.ACAB17~20.BCBC 21~23.ACD24~27.DBAA28~31.ACBD32~35.DBAB 36~40.GFEDA 41~55.DCAABDBADBCBACD 56. known 57. greatest 58. for 59. the 60. that /which 61. so 62. was published 63. theories 64. studying 65.are 66.Mental Health Awareness Month shines on campus Last month, our school launched a meaningful Mental Health Awareness Month to promote emotional well-being. Activities included expert-led workshops on stress management, mindfulness meditation sessions, and interactive art therapy classes where students created colourful artworks expressing their feelings. What was a highlight was the "Heart-to-heart Wall", where students anonymous shared worries and received supportive notes from peers. Over 500 students participated, with many praising the event for fostering openness about mental health. Meanwhile, Dr Ma shared encouraging data: "Peer-to-peer support sessions reached 85% satisfaction rate." Not only did this initiative raise awareness but also strengthened our supportive campus community, proving that mental health matters to everyone. 67.Seeing what was happening, all the people in the cafe smiled. Then, out of nowhere, people started clapping. It was like something from a movie. Everyone was smiling and looking at me enjoying my surprise meal. As I ate, the people in the cafe started walking up to the waiter and giving him some money. They were tipping him, but it wasn’t just a few coins; they were super generous. It was like the waiter’s kindness had the leading function, and now everyone wanted to offer him some money. I couldn’t thank the waiter enough with a full stomach and a happy heart. Perhaps this was the first time I had had such a delicious meal. At the same time, the waiter gave me all the money he received just now and encouraged me, "Everything will be OK. Never give up. "I was so moved that I couldn’t say any words. I knew that without the waiter’s kind act, I couldn’t have had a full meal. We didn’t talk much, but it didn’t matter. We were just two people sharing a quiet moment together, and it felt like we understood each other perfectly. 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
