This beautiful art—known in China as “cixiu”—uses a needle and colourful threads to create amazing pictures on cloth. It is one of China’s oldest and most beautiful traditions, with a history of over 2,000 years. Embroidery was not just an art; it was an important part of daily life in ancient China. It was a 1 way for people, especially women, to decorate their clothes and homes. They embroidered flowers, birds, and dragons on dresses, shoes, and even wall hangings to show their 2 for a beautiful life. The four most famous styles—Su, Xiang, Yue, and Shu—come from different parts of China and each has its own special look. Learning embroidery takes a lot of patience and practice. 3 , the basic skills are not too hard to start. You only need a needle, some thread, and a piece of cloth. Many people find the process of stitching very relaxing. It helps them to slow down and 4 on creating something beautiful. Today, this traditional art is not disappearing. 5 , it is becoming more popular. Young fashion designers are using embroidery in their modern designs.

In the past, people needed to save fresh food for times when it was 1 to find, such as the winter. The problem is that all food can grow bacteria (细菌) and it makes food go bad. To store food, you have to stop the bacteria from growing. Drying Drying is the oldest 2 of food storage. Without water in the food, the bacteria can’t grow. In ancient times in hot countries, people simply left fruit and meat outside in the sun and the wind until all its natural water was gone. Drying fruit sometimes produces a completely new kind of food. 3 , grapes turn into raisins (葡萄干). Salting Bacteria cannot grow in a very salty environment. In many countries, salted fish or meat has become a traditional food and people still eat it today. For example, in Portugal the national dish is salted cod fish (鳕鱼), and although people could buy fresh fish, they 4 to eat the salty fish. Canning In 1809, an inventor named Nicolas Appert discovered a more modern way to make food last longer. He found that heating food and then sealing (密封) it makes the food last for months. This is because the bacteria are killed at high 5 and cannot grow again without air. Freezing In the 1900s a scientist called Clarence Birdseye went to the Arctic. He noticed that fish froze quickly after he caught it. Months later, when he cooked the fish, it still tasted fresh. He realised that freezing food 6 the growth of bacteria. He invented a way of fast-freezing food. Frozen food was first sold in 1930 and was very popular, especially in North America. 1．A．convenient B．possible C．difficult D．cheap 2．A．type B．result C．reason D．chance 3．A．After all B．For example C．In addition D．At first 4．A．prefer B．forget C．prepare D．require 5．A．degrees B．speeds C．temperatures D．levels 6．A．let down B．turned down C．put down D．slowed down DeepSeek is China’s new AI star, and it has become an influential AI model. DeepSeek-R1 performs well in tasks such as natural language reasoning, matching the performance of 1 models from major companies like OpenAI. But it’s much cheaper and uses much less computing power. Here are some terms about DeepSeek in daily life. 1. DeepSeek moment People are using the term “DeepSeek moment” (DS) to talk about big, quick changes. For example, Investing.com used it for China’s fast development in solid-state batteries. A businessman said China’s chip technology is also growing 2 and might have a “DeepSeek moment” in 2026 or 2027. 2. Teacher D People call DeepSeek “Teacher D” on the internet. They say things like, “Can Teacher D 3 a draft for me?” or “Let Teacher D fix the report,” or “Teacher D worked some magic for me again.” This nickname is popular 4 the AI model is really good at many tasks. Some roles DeepSeek has played throughout 2025: —Art reviewer China.com Shandong launched a section called “DeepSeek Art Talks”. It is to bring a new understanding about the traditional art world. — 35 At the 2025 Quanzhou Lantern Festival, DeepSeek took about five seconds to finish a news article. The piece also included three lantern poems. —Exhibit guide In an exhibition hall in Shaanxi, a DeepSeek eco-science “digital guide” can chat and interact with visitors, and offer personalized science content based on their 5 . —Competitive mathematician DeepSeek’s model, DeepSeekMath-V2, achieved a gold medal-level performance at the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad. 1．A．spare B．leading C．ancient D．responsible 2．A．quickly B．independently C．peacefully D．quietly 3．A．copy B．print C．write D．imagine 4．A．because B．if C．so D．until 5．A．Detective B．Doctor C．Engineer D．Journalist 6．A．positions B．interests C．memberships D．budgets The “lipstick effect” is an interesting economic phenomenon (现象). During economic downturns, people buy fewer expensive things, such as cars or houses. They stop spending much money on costly products. However, they still buy small, cheap but nice things like lipsticks, skin care products, and small beauty items. These small luxuries (奢侈品) make them feel happy and confident 1 costing too much. Economists first found this trend in the 1930s during the Great Depression (经济大萧条时期). At that time, many people had little money and lived a hard life. But 2 , sales of cosmetics and small beauty products went up. People could not pay for expensive things, so they chose something cheaper to keep a good mood and 3 their everyday life.     In recent years, this trend has become very common. Because of economic 4 , many families choose “downgraded consumption (消费降级).” They cut down on big costs but still enjoy small, affordable purchases (可承受的购买). A lipstick costing around 200 yuan brings great 5 , maybe greater than a smartphone priced 8,000—9,000 yuan. For example, from March 1 to 5 this year, sales of show tickets rose by 60%, compared to last year. Many shops and companies have noticed this change. They make more cheap but nice products and tell customers that these items offer good value. During difficult economic times, cosmetics usually sell well, while sales of luxuries drop quickly. The lipstick effect shows 6 people change their spending habits in a smart way. It reflects a balance between financial practicality (实用性) and the human need for enjoyment and self-expression. 1．A．by B．after C．since D．without 2．A．totally B．surprisingly C．hopefully D．seriously 3．A．improve B．imagine C．complete D．waste 4．A．growth B．development C．uncertainty D．failure 5．A．fashion B．pleasure C．sales D．interest 6．A．what B．when C．how D．where Choose the best words and complete the passage (选择恰当的单词或词组完成短文) Shops have all kinds of tricks to get you to buy. They are like traps to catch you. If you know what those traps are, you can avoid falling into them. Loss leaders (亏本促销商品) Step one is to get you into the shop. The 1 that they do this is by advertising a product that you need at a crazy low price. The price might even be below cost. They 2 lose money when you buy that milk or those diapers, but you come in for that. Once in the shop you are sure to get the other things that you want and need, aren’t you? Those are called loss leaders. The expensive one makes yours seem reasonable You’re looking for a pair of cheap shoes. The ones you want cost more than you 3 , but right next to it is a very expensive one. Suddenly yours seems pretty reasonable. You decide to buy it 4 some people are spending even more money on jackets. You’ve been caught out! The placing of products is very important. They give you a place to rest You are tired from shopping and are looking for a place to sit. The shop has a nice place to get a cheap coffee or cake. You take a break and then you are 5 to shop again. That is just what all shops want. They even provide places for your children to play so that parents can shop more easily. That “99” really 6 people to buy You probably don’t believe that just changing a price from $100 to $99.99 can make a difference. But studies have proven that it is serious. So be careful when you shop.

It is not just about clothes; it is about culture, art, and ideas. Today, international fashion is becoming more and more global. This means styles from one country 1 quickly become popular in another. For example, a type of hat from Korea might be seen on the streets of London, or a bag from France might be loved by teenagers in New York. The Internet and social media help these styles 2 around the world  fast. Young people especially enjoy 3 different fashion trends and creating their own unique look. However, some people are also thinking about the 4 of “fast fashion”. Fast fashion means producing cheap clothes quickly to follow new trends. But this can be bad for the environment. 5 , many designers  and companies are now trying to make clothes in a more sustainable way. They use recycled materials and make sure the workers are treated fairly. So, when we choose what to wear, we are not just making a fashion statement. We are also making a choice about the kind of world we want to live in. It’s important to remember that real style isn’t just about looking good—it’s about  feeling good and 6 good, too. 1．A．can B．should C．must D．need 2．A．walk B．jump C．travel D．run 3．A．making B．buying C．selling D．mixing 4．A．price B．problem C．time D．size 5．A．Because B．So C．But D．Then 6．A．doing B．eating C．seeing D．tasting The Dong people (侗族人) and their indigo cloth (靛蓝色布) Yang Xiuying, 74, sits at a wooden loom (织布机).

The cloth has to be put in the dye for many rounds to gain the rich colour. The process of colouring usually takes two weeks.

These animals eat dry plants in forests and fields to help stop wildfires in California. Wildfires are a big danger to parks, communities and open land. They spread fast and burn for weeks or even months. The 1 has become worse in recent years. Goats eat the dry brush that easily catches fire. Targeted grazing (定向放牧) is a smart way to 2 fires before they start. Carl McCosker watches over the goats. He began with only four goats to clear neighbor’s land. Now, his herd (羊群) has grown because many places need their help. Why are there more fires now? Scientists say summers are hotter and winters are 3 . Rain is less common than in the past. Green plants make it hard for fire to start, but dry plants help fires spread. That’s why clearing brush is so important. Carl and his team use movable pens (围栏) called sets to guide the goats. Each set is a certain area that needs clearing. The goats eat the dry plants while the team sets up the next pen. Once the goats finish eating in one set, they 4 the next until the whole area is clear. Carl’s 120 goats work for six months each year. The goats eat from morning until night, like little eating machines. This continuous 5 to eat helps clear land quickly. A group of 100 goats can clear an entire acre—the size of a football field—in just one day. During the rainy season, the goats stay in barns. In spring, new baby goats are born and soon join the work. Carl believes targeted grazing is a natural and low-cost method. What’s more, it is better than using big machines that pollute the air. He works with family, friends, and dogs to protect the goats from wild animals. “There’s no better feeling than knowing you’re making a real difference,” Carl says with a smile. He is 6 to help keep forests and people safe from wildfires. 1．A．attention B．solution C．situation D．position 2．A．prevent B．pretend C．protect D．keep 3．A．wetter B．drier C．colder D．warmer 4．A．look forward to B．go back to C．come up with D．move on to 5．A．arrangement B．amusement C．requirement D．development 6．A．confident B．proud C．excited D．satisfied 选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文。 Los Angeles, a beautiful city between mountains and the ocean, has always faced risks from natural disasters like wildfires. Recently, climate change has made these fires even worse. Scientists explain that extreme weather patterns—such as heavy rains followed by long droughts (干旱)—create 1 conditions for fires. The rains help plants grow wildly, and the droughts turn them into dry fuel. Strong Santa Ana winds then 2 the fire to spread rapidly. Human activities also increase the danger. Many old houses are built with wood, a material that catches fire easily. Although environmental laws aim to protect nature, people are sometimes unwilling to remove the dry plants near their homes. Worse still, people continue building houses in risky foothill areas surrounded by bushes that are burnt 3 . By January 16th, the wildfires had killed 25 people and destroyed over 12,000 buildings. The damage cost over $50 billion, making it the most expensive wildfire disaster in U.S. history. Thick smoke filled the air, forcing schools to close and leaving many locals 4 with difficulty. The fires also harmed wildlife and turned green forests into black wastelands. Rescue teams worked day and night, but the fire remained uncontrollable for weeks. Experts say we need some preparation to prevent future disasters. 5 , building fireproof (防火的) houses using materials like metal or concrete (混凝土) is essential. Governments should support people to avoid building in high-risk zones and update city plans to create firebreaks. Clearing dry plants regularly and replanting fireproof trees can also help. Most importantly, this disaster teaches us that humans must learn to live in harmony (和谐) with 6 instead of refusing to pay attention to its power. Though Los Angeles will always be a popular place to live, its story warns the world: getting used to climate change is not just important—it is necessary for survival. 1．A．common B．direct C．perfect D．possible 2．A．reduce B．encourage C．hide D．fight 3．A．easily B．slowly C．exactly D．thoroughly 4．A．sleeping B．learning C．coughing D．breathing 5．A．At first B．For example C．As a result D．In fact 6．A．nature B．technology C．customs D．society 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 One morning, Tom’s teacher begins the day with welcoming a new student called Anita.

He noticed that fish froze quickly after he caught it. Months later, when he cooked the fish, it still tasted fresh. He realised that freezing food 6 the growth of bacteria. He invented a way of fast-freezing food. Frozen food was first sold in 1930 and was very popular, especially in North America. 1．A．convenient B．possible C．difficult D．cheap 2．A．type B．result C．reason D．chance 3．A．After all B．For example C．In addition D．At first 4．A．prefer B．forget C．prepare D．require 5．A．degrees B．speeds C．temperatures D．levels 6．A．let down B．turned down C．put down D．slowed down 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．A 5．C 6．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了从古至今为延长食物保质期，发展出的四种主要食物储存方法（干燥、腌制、罐装、冷冻），并解释了每种方法抑制细菌生长、防止食物变质的原理，展现了人们在食物保存技术上的探索与进步。 1．句意：在过去，人们需要保存新鲜食物，以备像冬天这样难以获取食物的时候。 根据上下文，保存食物是为了应对食物短缺的时期，因此difficult“困难的”最符合语境。 2．句意：干燥是最古老的食物储存方式 。 “type of food storing”表示 “食物储存的方式/类型”，符合段落主题。 3．句意：例如，葡萄会变成葡萄干。 前文提到“干燥水果有时会变成一种全新的食物”，后文用葡萄干的例子来证明，因此用For example”例如”。 4．句意：尽管人们可以买到新鲜鱼，但他们更喜欢吃咸鱼。 根据“salt fish has become a traditional food” 可知，咸鱼是传统食物，人们有食用的偏好，因此用prefer“更喜欢”。 5．句意：这是因为细菌在高温下会被杀死，没有空气就无法再次生长。 罐头的原理是高温灭菌，high temperatures”高温” 是固定搭配。 6．句意：他意识到冷冻食物会减缓细菌的生长。 根据常识，低温会抑制细菌繁殖，slowed down“减缓” 符合这一逻辑。 DeepSeek is China’s new AI star, and it has become an influential AI model. DeepSeek-R1 performs well in tasks such as natural language reasoning, matching the performance of 1 models from major companies like OpenAI. But it’s much cheaper and uses much less computing power. Here are some terms about DeepSeek in daily life. 1. DeepSeek moment People are using the term “DeepSeek moment” (DS) to talk about big, quick changes. For example, Investing.com used it for China’s fast development in solid-state batteries. A businessman said China’s chip technology is also growing 2 and might have a “DeepSeek moment” in 2026 or 2027. 2. Teacher D People call DeepSeek “Teacher D” on the internet. They say things like, “Can Teacher D 3 a draft for me?” or “Let Teacher D fix the report,” or “Teacher D worked some magic for me again.” This nickname is popular 4 the AI model is really good at many tasks. Some roles DeepSeek has played throughout 2025: —Art reviewer China.com Shandong launched a section called “DeepSeek Art Talks”. It is to bring a new understanding about the traditional art world. — 35 At the 2025 Quanzhou Lantern Festival, DeepSeek took about five seconds to finish a news article. The piece also included three lantern poems. —Exhibit guide In an exhibition hall in Shaanxi, a DeepSeek eco-science “digital guide” can chat and interact with visitors, and offer personalized science content based on their 5 . —Competitive mathematician DeepSeek’s model, DeepSeekMath-V2, achieved a gold medal-level performance at the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad. 1．A．spare B．leading C．ancient D．responsible 2．A．quickly B．independently C．peacefully D．quietly 3．A．copy B．print C．write D．imagine 4．A．because B．if C．so D．until 5．A．Detective B．Doctor C．Engineer D．Journalist 6．A．positions B．interests C．memberships D．budgets 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．A 5．D 6．B 【导语】本文介绍了中国AI模型DeepSeek的特点、相关术语及其在2025年扮演的多种角色。 1．句意：DeepSeek-R1在自然语言推理等任务上表现出色，性能与主要公司（如OpenAI）的顶尖模型相当。 上文对比DeepSeek与主要公司的模型，leading“领先的”符合。spare“空闲的”、ancient“古老的”、responsible“负责的”均与顶尖模型不符。 2．句意：一位商人表示，中国的芯片技术也在快速发展，并可能在2026或2027年迎来“DeepSeek时刻”。 上文提到“big, quick changes”，说明发展“快速地”，quickly“快速地”符合。independently“独立地”、peacefully“和平地”、quietly“安静地”均与快速发展不符。 3．句意：人们会说：“D老师能帮我写个草稿吗？” 下文举例“Let Teacher D fix the report”，说明需要AI“写”草稿或修改报告，write“写”符合。copy“复制”、print“打印”、imagine“想象”均与撰写草稿不符。 4．句意：这个昵称很受欢迎，因为这个AI模型在很多任务上都非常出色。 前后句为因果关系，受欢迎“因为”模型擅长很多任务，because“因为”符合。if“如果”表条件，so“所以”表结果，until“直到”表时间，均与因果逻辑不符。 5．句意：记者。 下文提到DeepSeek在元宵节完成新闻稿、包含诗歌，说明它扮演了“记者”角色，Journalist“记者”符合。Detective“侦探”、Doctor“医生”、Engineer“工程师”均与写新闻稿不符。 6．句意：在陕西的一处展馆内，一款 DeepSeek 生态科普数字向导能够与游客聊天互动，并根据游客的兴趣推送个性化科普内容。 上文AI导览与访客互动，提供个性化内容应基于访客的“兴趣”，interests“兴趣”符合。positions“职位”、memberships“会员资格”、budgets“预算”均与个性化推荐不符。 The “lipstick effect” is an interesting economic phenomenon (现象). During economic downturns, people buy fewer expensive things, such as cars or houses. They stop spending much money on costly products. However, they still buy small, cheap but nice things like lipsticks, skin care products, and small beauty items. These small luxuries (奢侈品) make them feel happy and confident 1 costing too much. Economists first found this trend in the 1930s during the Great Depression (经济大萧条时期). At that time, many people had little money and lived a hard life. But 2 , sales of cosmetics and small beauty products went up. People could not pay for expensive things, so they chose something cheaper to keep a good mood and 3 their everyday life.     In recent years, this trend has become very common. Because of economic 4 , many families choose “downgraded consumption (消费降级).” They cut down on big costs but still enjoy small, affordable purchases (可承受的购买). A lipstick costing around 200 yuan brings great 5 , maybe greater than a smartphone priced 8,000—9,000 yuan. For example, from March 1 to 5 this year, sales of show tickets rose by 60%, compared to last year. Many shops and companies have noticed this change. They make more cheap but nice products and tell customers that these items offer good value. During difficult economic times, cosmetics usually sell well, while sales of luxuries drop quickly. The lipstick effect shows 6 people change their spending habits in a smart way. It reflects a balance between financial practicality (实用性) and the human need for enjoyment and self-expression. 1．A．by B．after C．since D．without 2．A．totally B．surprisingly C．hopefully D．seriously 3．A．improve B．imagine C．complete D．waste 4．A．growth B．development C．uncertainty D．failure 5．A．fashion B．pleasure C．sales D．interest 6．A．what B．when C．how D．where 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．B 6．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了经济学中的“口红效应”，说明经济下行时人们减少大额消费，转而购买廉价小物来获得愉悦感的现象。 1．句意：这些小小的奢侈品能让他们感到快乐和自信，而不用花太多钱。 根据上文，“small, cheap but nice things”表明物品价格实惠，此处表示“不用花太多钱”，应用without“没有”。 2．句意：但令人惊讶的是，化妆品和小型美容产品的销量却上升了。 根据上文，“many people had little money and lived a hard life”表明人们没钱，生活艰难，但是美容产品的销量上升了，这是出人意料的情况，应用surprisingly“令人惊讶地”。 3．句意：人们买不起昂贵的东西，所以他们选择更便宜的东西来保持好心情，改善生活。 前文提到“keep a good mood”，说明这些小物件能让人们开心，让生活变得更好，应用improve“改善”。imagine“想象”、complete“完成”以及waste“浪费”均不符合语境。 4．句意：由于经济不确定性，许多家庭选择“消费降级”。 后文提到“downgraded consumption (消费降级)”，说明经济形势不稳定，“economic uncertainty”是标准术语，指前景不明导致消费保守。应用uncertainty“不确定性”。 5．句意：一支约200元的口红能带来巨大的愉悦感，可能比一部售价8000至9000元的智能手机带来的还多。 前文提到这些小物能让他们开心，此处与“happy”呼应，应用pleasure“愉悦，快乐”。 6．句意：“口红效应”展示了人们如何以一种明智的方式改变他们的消费习惯。 show后接宾语从句，空处为方式状语，用how引导。what引导名词性从句，表“什么的事物/东西”；when表时间，where表地点，均不符合语法逻辑。 Choose the best words and complete the passage (选择恰当的单词或词组完成短文) Shops have all kinds of tricks to get you to buy.

These animals eat dry plants in forests and fields to help stop wildfires in California. Wildfires are a big danger to parks, communities and open land. They spread fast and burn for weeks or even months. The 1 has become worse in recent years. Goats eat the dry brush that easily catches fire. Targeted grazing (定向放牧) is a smart way to 2 fires before they start. Carl McCosker watches over the goats. He began with only four goats to clear neighbor’s land. Now, his herd (羊群) has grown because many places need their help. Why are there more fires now? Scientists say summers are hotter and winters are 3 . Rain is less common than in the past. Green plants make it hard for fire to start, but dry plants help fires spread. That’s why clearing brush is so important. Carl and his team use movable pens (围栏) called sets to guide the goats. Each set is a certain area that needs clearing. The goats eat the dry plants while the team sets up the next pen. Once the goats finish eating in one set, they 4 the next until the whole area is clear. Carl’s 120 goats work for six months each year. The goats eat from morning until night, like little eating machines. This continuous 5 to eat helps clear land quickly. A group of 100 goats can clear an entire acre—the size of a football field—in just one day. During the rainy season, the goats stay in barns. In spring, new baby goats are born and soon join the work. Carl believes targeted grazing is a natural and low-cost method. What’s more, it is better than using big machines that pollute the air. He works with family, friends, and dogs to protect the goats from wild animals. “There’s no better feeling than knowing you’re making a real difference,” Carl says with a smile. He is 6 to help keep forests and people safe from wildfires. 1．A．attention B．solution C．situation D．position 2．A．prevent B．pretend C．protect D．keep 3．A．wetter B．drier C．colder D．warmer 4．A．look forward to B．go back to C．come up with D．move on to 5．A．arrangement B．amusement C．requirement D．development 6．A．confident B．proud C．excited D．satisfied 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．D 5．C 6．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了利用山羊进行定向放牧以预防加州野火的情况。山羊通过吃干植物来减少火灾风险，这种方法既自然又低成本，且比使用污染空气的大型机器更有效。 1．句意：近年来情况变得更糟了。 attention注意；solution解决办法；situation情况；position位置。根据前文“Wildfires are a big danger to parks, communities and open land.”以及后文“Why are there more fires now?”可知，野火对公园、社区和开阔地构成巨大威胁，且现在火灾更多了，所以此处指的是情况变得更糟了。故选C。 2．句意：定向放牧是在火灾发生前预防火灾的一种明智方法。 prevent阻止；pretend假装；protect保护；keep保持。根据后文“That’s why clearing brush is so important.”可知，清除灌木很重要，结合常识可知，清除灌木可以预防火灾，所以此处指的是预防火灾。故选A。 3．句意：科学家表示，夏天更热，冬天更干燥。 wetter更潮湿的；drier更干燥的；colder更冷的；warmer更温暖的。根据后文“Rain is less common than in the past.”以及“but dry plants help fires spread”可知，雨水比过去少了，干植物有助于火势蔓延，所以此处指的是冬天更干燥。故选B。 4．句意：一旦山羊在一个区域吃完，它们就会转移到下一个区域，直到整个区域都被清理干净。 look forward to期待；go back to回到；come up with想出；move on to转移到。根据后文“until the whole area is clear”可知，直到整个区域都被清理干净，所以此处指的是山羊会转移到下一个区域。故选D。 5．句意：这种持续的进食需求有助于快速清理土地。 arrangement安排；amusement娱乐；requirement需求；development发展。根据前文“The goats eat from morning until night, like little eating machines.”可知，山羊从早吃到晚，就像小型的进食机器，所以此处指的是这种持续的进食需求。故选C。 6．句意：他为能帮助保护森林和人们免受野火侵袭而感到自豪。 confident自信的；proud自豪的；excited兴奋的；satisfied满意的。根据前文“Carl believes targeted grazing is a natural and low-cost method.

Recently, climate change has made these fires even worse. Scientists explain that extreme weather patterns—such as heavy rains followed by long droughts (干旱)—create 1 conditions for fires. The rains help plants grow wildly, and the droughts turn them into dry fuel. Strong Santa Ana winds then 2 the fire to spread rapidly. Human activities also increase the danger. Many old houses are built with wood, a material that catches fire easily. Although environmental laws aim to protect nature, people are sometimes unwilling to remove the dry plants near their homes. Worse still, people continue building houses in risky foothill areas surrounded by bushes that are burnt 3 . By January 16th, the wildfires had killed 25 people and destroyed over 12,000 buildings. The damage cost over $50 billion, making it the most expensive wildfire disaster in U.S. history. Thick smoke filled the air, forcing schools to close and leaving many locals 4 with difficulty. The fires also harmed wildlife and turned green forests into black wastelands. Rescue teams worked day and night, but the fire remained uncontrollable for weeks. Experts say we need some preparation to prevent future disasters. 5 , building fireproof (防火的) houses using materials like metal or concrete (混凝土) is essential. Governments should support people to avoid building in high-risk zones and update city plans to create firebreaks. Clearing dry plants regularly and replanting fireproof trees can also help. Most importantly, this disaster teaches us that humans must learn to live in harmony (和谐) with 6 instead of refusing to pay attention to its power. Though Los Angeles will always be a popular place to live, its story warns the world: getting used to climate change is not just important—it is necessary for survival. 1．A．common B．direct C．perfect D．possible 2．A．reduce B．encourage C．hide D．fight 3．A．easily B．slowly C．exactly D．thoroughly 4．A．sleeping B．learning C．coughing D．breathing 5．A．At first B．For example C．As a result D．In fact 6．A．nature B．technology C．customs D．society 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 5．B 6．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了洛杉矶面临野火等自然灾害风险，分析气候变化、人类活动对野火加剧的影响，介绍野火造成的破坏，以及专家提出的防灾准备建议，强调人类需与自然和谐共处。 1．句意：科学家们解释，极端的天气模式——比如暴雨之后的长期干旱——为火灾创造了完美的条件。 common常见的；direct直接的；perfect完美的；possible可能的。根据“The rains help plants grow wildly, and the droughts turn them into dry fuel.”可知，大雨使植物疯狂生长，干旱又将其变为干燥的燃料，这种极端天气组合为火灾创造了完美的条件。故选C。 2．句意：强劲的圣安娜风随后促使火势迅速蔓延。 reduce减少；encourage促使；hide隐藏；fight战斗。根据“spread rapidly”可知，此处应指强风促使火势快速蔓延。故选B。 3．句意：更糟糕的是，人们继续在危险的山麓地区建造房屋，周围是容易被烧毁的灌木丛。 easily容易地；slowly缓慢地；exactly确切地；thoroughly彻底地。根据“bushes that are burnt ...”和常识可知，灌木丛是易燃物，所以很容易被烧毁。故选A。 4．句意：空气中弥漫着浓烟，学校被迫关闭，许多当地人呼吸困难。 sleeping睡觉；learning学习；coughing咳嗽；breathing呼吸。根据“Thick smoke filled the air”和常识可知，浓烟弥漫在空气中，会影响人们呼吸，此处应指浓烟让许多当地人呼吸困难。故选D。 5．句意：例如，使用金属或混凝土等材料建造防火房屋是必不可少的。 At first起初；For example例如；As a result结果；In fact事实上。根据“we need some preparation to prevent future disasters”和“building fireproof (防火的) houses using materials like metal or concrete (混凝土) is essential”可知，前文说需要防灾准备，此处是举例说明，用For example最符合语境。故选B。 6．句意：最重要的是，这场灾难告诉我们，人类必须学会与自然和谐相处，而不是拒绝关注自然的力量。 nature自然；technology科技；customs习俗；society社会。根据“this disaster teaches us ...”可知，这场灾难指的是洛杉矶野火，野火属于自然灾害，此处应强调人类要学会与自然和谐相处。故选A。 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 One morning, Tom’s teacher begins the day with welcoming a new student called Anita.
