Dragon Day(原创新题)
Dragon Day is one of the best-known traditions at Cornell University, with a history of more than a century. Every year, first-year architecture students create a large dragon and parade it across campus. Dressed in imaginative costumes, they lead the dragon to the Arts Quad, where it symbolically battles a phoenix built by engineering students. This ceremony of spring is one of Cornell’s best-known traditions..
The tradition can be dated back to Willard Dickerman Straight(1901), who believed the College of Architecture should have its own special day. Initially, the celebration was held on St. Patrick’s Day. Students decorated Lincoln Hall with orange and green banners, shamrocks, and other themed items. Over time, the idea of St. Patrick driving serpents out of Ireland became part of the celebration, helping shape later developments.
Although the exact evolution (演变) of the parade is unclear, the modern version of Dragon Day began to take shape in the 1950s. Earlier serpent figures gradually developed into the large dragon seen today. Around the same time, the name “Dragon Day” likely came into use, replacing the earlier focus on College of Architecture Day. In the past, the celebration ended with the burning of the dragon, though this practice has since been abandoned (弃置).
The rivalry between architecture and engineering students also grew naturally over time. It is now expressed through the symbolic battle between the dragon and the phoenix, adding excitement and creativity to the event.
For several decades, Dragon Day was celebrated either on St. Patrick’s Day or immediately before Spring Break—whichever date happened first. When a new academic calendar was introduced in 2013, Spring Break moved later into the month of March, and Dragon Day is now routinely celebrated the day before students leave campus for a weeklong break.
21. What was the original purpose of Dragon Day?
A. To unite all the departments. B. To celebrate west European culture.
C. To mark the arrival of spring. D. To establish an architecture festival.
22. What changed in Dragon Day in the 1950s?
A. Professors led the event. B. A new location was chosen.
C. A dragon became central. D. Indoor shows replaced parades.
23. Why is Dragon Day now held before Spring Break?
A. To extend the holiday. B. To follow old tradition.
C. To fit the new calendar. D. To attract more visitors.
B (原创新题)
In June 2024, McFarland, Brune and a group of Penn State meteorology and atmospheric science researchers set out to drive on a road trip along the East Coast of Florida. The van was outfitted with a custom-built telescopic weather instrument extending from the roof. Their goal was to track down Florida’s near-daily summer thunderstorms and observe a phenomenon that had never been confirmed outside a laboratory.
That phenomenon, known as corona (日冕) discharge, involves tiny bursts of electricity forming at the tips of leaves. These slight electrical pulses can cause treetops to send out a subtle glow in the ultraviolet (UV) range. Scientists had suspected for more than 70 years that forests might produce these effects during storms because of unusual electric field activity, but direct evidence in nature had remained elusive. Their objective was to document corona discharges occurring naturally for the first time.
Florida was chosen because of its frequent thunderstorms, which seemed ideal for the study. However, the weather did not cooperate as expected. For three weeks, McFarland and Brune followed short-lived storms that disappeared quickly, leaving them without useful data.
As the team began heading back to Pennsylvania, conditions changed. Large, long-lasting storms developed just west of Interstate 95. Seizing the opportunity, the researchers stopped at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and set up their equipment in a parking lot. They aimed their instruments at the upper branches of a sweetgum tree about 100 feet from their van.
A thunderstorm persisted for nearly two hours, bringing heavy rain and frequent lightning. During this time, the team recorded corona discharges on the sweetgum tree and also observed similar activity on a nearby long needle loblolly pine as the storm weakened. These observations marked the first confirmed detection of corona discharges in a natural setting.
24. What drove the researchers to Florida?
A. Testing their custom vehicle. B. Forecasting local thunderstorms.
C. Examining native tree species. D. Catching a hidden electrical glow.
25. What does the underlined word “elusive” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Hard to find. B. Easy to prove. C. Widely known. D. Clearly shown.
26. What can we infer from the text?
A. The team failed their mission. B. Corona discharge is dangerous.
C. Nature studies often face luck. D. The instrument was badly built.
27. How is the text mainly developed?
A. In order of time. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. Through cause and effect.
C (原创新题)
Beavers may be far more important to the climate than previously thought. A new international study led by researchers at the University of Birmingham suggests these animals can turn river systems into powerful carbon dioxide (CO2) sinks by reshaping wetlands and waterways.
The study is the first to measure both the carbon released and captured by beavers in wetlands. It focused on a stream in northern Switzerland where beavers have lived for more than ten years. Researchers found that wetlands made by beavers stored carbon at a much higher rate than nearby areas without beavers. In thirteen years, the wetland collected about 1,194 tonnes of carbon, equal to 10.1 tonnes of CO2 per hectare each year.
Beavers build dams (水坝) that slow down water, trap soil, and create new wet areas. These changes help streams store more carbon. Dr. Joshua Larsen, the main author, said that beavers not only change the land but also control how CO2 moves in these areas. This study shows a new way nature itself can help fight climate change.
Over recent decades, beavers have returned to rivers across Europe. By making dams, they flood stream sides, create wetlands, change the flow of water, and trap both natural and human materials, including carbon. This reshapes the ecosystem and increases the carbon stored in the land.
The study also looked at seasonal changes. In summer, low water levels can expose (暴露) soil and release more CO2 temporarily. However, over the whole year, the wetland stores a large amount of carbon in soil, plants, and deadwood. Deadwood alone accounts for almost half of all carbon stored in the area.
Researchers estimate (估计) that if beavers return to all suitable floodplains in Switzerland, their wetlands could reduce 1.2–1.8% of the country’s yearly carbon emissions. As beaver populations grow, more research will help us understand how these animals can affect future ecosystems and long-term carbon storage.
28. What did the study in Switzerland show about beavers?
A. They can help rivers store more carbon.
B. They increase the number of fish in rivers.
C. They reduce rainfall in surrounding areas.
D. They change the temperature of the water.
29. How do beavers affect the amount of carbon in wetlands?
A. They prevent floods from reaching forests.
B. They change water flow and block materials.
C. They remove plants to let more carbon escape.
D. They reduce soil in wetlands to lower carbon.
30. What can be inferred about beavers from the text?
A. They are in need of human help. B. They benefit the local ecosystem.
C. They mostly harms other animals. D. They have a side effect on the land.
31. Which would be the most suitable title for the text?
A. How Beavers Build Dams and Wetlands
B. How Seasonal Changes Happen in Swiss
C. The Life and Habits of European Beavers
D. Beavers and Carbon Storage in Wetlands
D
Sorry exercise addicts--all those intense (剧烈的) workouts might not be helping you lose as much weight as you thought. People who are the most physically active seem to become more efficient (高效的) at using energy, according to a recent study.
“This isn’t an argument for not exercising,” says David Stensel, a professor who studies exercise at Loughborough University in the UK. “Exercise is still good for you in a host of other ways. But it helps us understand why not everyone gets the weight loss they expect with exercise.”
In the study, researchers used wearable tracking devices to measure the activity levels of 332 people with a wide range of lifestyles. They also measured how much energy people used each day by having them drink special water that can be traced. As expected, those who were moderately active burned more energy than those who were inactive. However, those who were the most active burned the same amount of calories as those who were moderately active.
This suggests that someone who already walks to work and runs a bit may not burn more calories by doing longer runs, says Herman Pontzer, one of the authors of the study. Pontzer explains that we might adjust to exercise in two ways. One is that we start moving around less. The other is that lowering our resting metabolic rate (代谢率) by cutting energy use in a range of bodily functions.
Earlier studies that suggested exercise increases people’s resting metabolic rate may have been wrong by testing people too soon after exercise, when their metabolism had not fully settled.
“Even though gym machines show how many calories you burn during a workout, active people make up for it by burning fewer calories during the rest of the day,” says Pontzer, pointing out that even with intense exercise, most of the calories burned during the day come from our bodies maintaining basic physiological functions.
32. What is a misunderstanding of exercise according to the text?
A. It helps us lose weight. B. It requires a high-calorie diet.
C. It leads to intense pain. D. It must be done on a daily basis.
33. What can be learned about the finding from David Stensel’s words?
A. It shows weight loss is achievable. B. It gives us new insights into workouts.
C. It is an argument for not exercising. D. It proves exercise is harmful to the old.
34. What is the main purpose of the new study?
A. To determine the impact of diet on exercise.
B. To find the best exercise habit for weight loss.
C. To measure the weight loss effects of running.
D. To understand how exercise affects calorie burn.
35. What does Pontzer think of highly active people?
A. They lose weight more easily than others.
B. They eat more to maintain bodily functions.
C. They burn fewer calories outside of exercise.
D. They should have a rest shortly after exercise.

The key to encouraging kids to read at home is to make it an enjoyable experience, not a task. 36 . Here are some helpful tips to share with your students’ families to make reading more exciting.
• 37 . Giving children the freedom to pick books that match their interests and reading levels can make a huge difference. Whether it’s a story about adventure, animals, or superheroes, letting them pick what they want to read keeps them engaged (参与) and motivated to read more.
• Incorporate (融合) technology. Many kids today are drawn to digital reading platforms like e-books and audiobooks. 38 . These tools offer a wide range of books that can be read on a phone, tablet, or computer. For kids who struggle with reading, these platforms can be particularly helpful, as they often provide features like text-to-speech or adjustable settings.
• Read together as a family. Make reading a family activity by setting aside time each day to read together. Not only does this help children improve their reading skills, but it also strengthens family bonds. Parents can model good reading habits, and children can share their thoughts on what they are reading. 39 .
• Celebrate reading milestones. 40 . You can give them a small reward or simply acknowledge their hard work. Positive reinforcement (强化) helps build their confidence and encourages them to continue reading.
A. Let children choose their own books
B. They make it easy to find like-minded people
C. Invite family members to engage in reading activities
D. Using apps and websites can make reading interactive and fun
E. It’s a great way to make reading a social activity that everyone enjoys
F. Whether children finish a book or learn a new word, praise their effort
G. When reading is fun, they are likely to develop a lifelong love for books

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In one of 56 earliest texts written in Marathi, a language 57 (speak) by millions in India, a 13th-century poet named Cakradhara used an acacia tree 58 (represent) the cycle of life and death. He could not have expected that this image would later help scientists study the environmental history of India.
Today, researchers believe that ancient stories and texts can offer an 59 (origin) description of how India’s large grasslands developed. These ecosystems cover nearly 10% of India. Scientists now argue that grasslands are not just the remains of destroyed forests. Recognizing this is important for deciding where tree planting 60 forest restoration (修复) efforts should take place in the future.
Researchers studied traditional songs and stories from western India, which describe the plants that once 61 (grow) there. By analyzing these texts, they were able to learn about the types of vegetation that existed in the past.
Ashish Nerlekar, one of the researchers, was surprised by how 62 (close) the plants described in these ancient texts matched those found today. He said, “It’s 63 (amaze) that something written hundreds of years ago can be so similar 64 what we see now, yet so different from the way people imagine the past.”
The idea for the study first came from a casual (随意的) conversation among researchers 65 were discussing their different areas of work.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成篇完整的短文。
The final class of the day was PE, and Eliza was having a great time skipping rope on the sports field. Her classmates gathered around, cheering her on. Skipping rope was her best sport, and she was fast. The rope spun quickly as she jumped, and when the timer went off, the counter showed 201 skips. Smiling, Eliza raised her hand in a victory sign to the crowd. Just then, the school bell rang, signaling the end of the day.
Eliza packed up her skipping rope, but her mind was focused on something else—she had to make a decision. That morning, Ms. White had asked her if she would take charge of the class bulletin board (布告栏) for an upcoming competition. Anna, the student who usually did it, was sick, and someone needed to step in. Eliza was surprised that Ms. White had chosen her. She was nervous and said that her handwriting wasn’t good enough. But Ms. White encouraged her to think it over and promised to let her make the final decision by the end of the day.
Now, as Eliza walked toward the teachers’ office, her heart raced. The thought of her handwriting being displayed on the bulletin board for everyone to see made her stomach turn. She had already decided she would say no. With that decision in mind, she quickened her pace (步伐), almost running across the sports field.
When Eliza reached the office, she still felt nervous. She stood outside the door for a moment, trying to calm herself. The idea of saying no to Ms. White made her feel guilty (愧疚). Ms. White had been so kind, and now she was putting all her trust in Eliza. But the thought of her messy handwriting being on display weighed on her. She wasn’t sure if she was ready for such a big responsibility.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

(Text 4)
W: Tomorrow evening is Tony’s birthday party. What should I take?
M: He likes science very much. You’re supposed to take something about science.
(Text 5)
W: It’s raining again. It is always raining these days.
M: Oh, it won’t last long. The weather report says we will have fine weather this afternoon.
(Text 6)
W: What a pity that our city team was only one point behind the winning team! They nearly won.
M: Yes, but they did a great job and tried their best in the baseball final today.
W: If the third baseman had rushed into the home base, it could have been a draw. In that case, there could have been extra innings. The result might change.
M: Anything may happen during a game. It’s not an easy job. We should take their feelings into consideration.
W: You’re right. What also impressed me was the snacks in the stadium. The chicken nuggets were so delicious. I really wanted to have more.
M: They were a good match for the beer and welcomed by the crowd.
(Text 7)
W: Hi. My name’s Alex.
M: Alex. Oh, you’re Jim’s friend.
W: Yeah. We worked in the same office until he moved to Hawaii. You look a lot like Jim. Are you related?
M: Yeah, we’re cousins. His mum and my mum are sisters.
W: Do you live here? Around here?
M: No, I live in San Francisco. I just came for the wedding.
W: San Francisco? Me, too. I just came for the wedding, too.
M: Oh, great! What do you do in San Francisco?
W: I’m an art director in a fashion magazine. How about you?
M: Well, I’m sort of an artist, too. I make films.

W: Colin, you got the highest score on the English exam again. How I envy you!
M: You did make progress this time, especially in reading and writing parts.
W: But I’m still dissatisfied with my spoken English. It’s my biggest problem.
M: Cheer up, Tina. Let me help you find the right way to learn English. When you’re studying a language, the keyword is patience. It’s of the greatest importance, because nobody can master a language all at once.
W: Oh, yeah. But what am I supposed to do? Find some foreign friends or go abroad to learn it?
M: Not exactly. You can just make full use of every morning to practice English.
W: Should I get up earlier every day?
M: You don’t have to do so. Actually, there are indeed many chances in the morning that you can grasp to learn English. For example, you can listen to English news while you are dressing and washing. At the same time, you can imitate and speak English loudly. You need to take every opportunity to learn.
W: Practice makes perfect, right?
M: You said it.
(Text 9)
W: Why don’t we first visit the art museum in the morning?
M: OK. I like that idea. And where do you want to eat lunch?
W: How about going to an Indian restaurant?
M: Hmm.
W: The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.
M: That sounds great. After that, how about visiting the zoo? It says here that there are some very unique animals not found anywhere else.
W: Well, to tell you the truth, I’m not really interested in going there.
M: Really?
W: Yeah. Why don’t we go shopping instead? There are supposed to be some really nice places to pick up souvenirs.
M: Nah, I don’t think that’s a good idea. We only have few traveler’s checks left, and I only have 50 dollars left in cash.
W: Oh well. Let’s take the subway down to the seashore and walk along the beach.
M: Sounds like a wonderful plan.
(Text 10)
W: Get ready to say good bye to today’s warm, sunny weather. Just when millions of people are getting ready for the Christmas holiday, three storms are expected to make problems for holiday travelers. None of the storms will be strong, but the cold air will make travelling difficult. The first storm will arrive on this weekend. It will bring rain to the northeast, but warm air in New York city might cause some fog and low clouds. It will be hard for drivers to see the road clearly. Later in the week, snow will come to the northwest states. With three inches falling in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and a few days later, just when the new year’s celebrations are scheduled, Boston will be covered with freezing rain. The ice will cause problems for anyone trying to travel on foot, with one inch of ice expected on city roads. New Years will be cold in Chicago, too, with a strong wind blowing water from the river on to any one hoping to celebrate by the water.

【语篇导读】
本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了康奈尔大学(Cornell University)著名的传统活动Dragon Day(龙日)。
【答案解析】
21. D 细节理解题。根据第二段“The tradition can be dated back to Willard Dickerman Straight(1901), who believed the College of Architecture should have its own special day.”可知,Dragon Day最初是由Willard Dickerman Straight于1901年发起的,他认为建筑学院应该拥有自己的特别节日。因此,其初衷是为建筑学院建立一个专属节日。
22. C 细节理解题。根据第三段“Earlier serpent figures gradually developed into the large dragon seen today. Around the same time, the name ‘Dragon Day’ likely came into use...”可知,20世纪50年代早期蛇形形象逐渐发展为今天的大型龙,同时Dragon Day这一名称也开始使用。这表明龙成为活动的核心形象。
23. C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When a new academic calendar was introduced in 2013, Spring Break moved later into the month of March, and Dragon Day is now routinely celebrated the day before students leave campus for a weeklong break.”可知,2013年新的学年日历实施后,春假时间延后,Dragon Day也随之调整为春假前一天举行。因此,现在安排在春假前是为了适应新的学年日历。

本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍宾夕法尼亚州立大学研究团队历经波折,最终在北卡罗来纳州首次于自然环境中观测并证实了树冠电晕放电现象。
【答案解析】
24. D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Their goal was to track down Florida’s near-daily summer thunderstorms and observe a phenomenon that had never been confirmed outside a laboratory.”以及第二段对该现象的具体说明“These slight electrical pulses can cause treetops to send out a subtle glow in the ultraviolet (UV) range.”可知,研究团队前往佛罗里达是为了追踪并观测一种从未在实验室外被证实的现象——树冠电晕放电产生的微弱紫外光晕。
25. A 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Scientists had suspected for more than 70 years that forests might produce these effects... but direct evidence in nature had remained elusive.(科学家们怀疑森林可能产生这种效应已有70多年,但自然界中的直接证据仍然elusive。)”可知,转折连词but表示,尽管怀疑已久,但直接证据仍未获得,即“难以找到”。
26. C 推理判断题。根据第三、四段,研究团队特意选择佛罗里达因其频繁的雷暴,但“the weather did not cooperate as expected”,三周内追踪的风暴都迅速消散;然而在返程途中,意外出现了持久的风暴,最终成功观测。这一经历表明自然科学研究往往受到天气等不可控因素影响,成功与否带有一定偶然性,即“需要运气”。
27. A 推理判断题。本文按照时间顺序展开叙述:2024年6月研究团队出发→前往佛罗里达→三周内追踪失败→开始返回宾夕法尼亚→返程途中遭遇风暴→在北卡罗来纳大学停车场架设设备→近两小时雷暴期间成功观测。全文以时间为线索推进事件发展,属于典型的顺叙结构。
【语篇导读】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了伯明翰大学研究人员主导的一项国际研究,该研究发现河狸通过修建水坝重塑湿地和水道,能够将河流系统转化为强大的二氧化碳吸收汇,从而在应对气候变化方面发挥重要作用。
【答案解析】
28. A 细节理解题。根据第二段“Researchers found that wetlands made by beavers stored carbon at a much higher rate than nearby areas without beavers. In thirteen years, the wetland collected about 1,194 tonnes of carbon, equal to 10.1 tonnes of CO2 per hectare each year.”可知,研究发现河狸建造的湿地储碳速率远高于无河狸区域,13年间该湿地收集了约1,194吨碳。这说明河狸能够帮助河流储存更多碳。
29. B 细节理解题。根据第四段“By making dams, they flood stream sides, create wetlands, change the flow of water, and trap both natural and human materials, including carbon.”可知,河狸通过改变水流并阻挡物质来影响湿地中的碳含量。
30. B 推理判断题。根据第三段“Beavers build dams (水坝) that slow down water, trap soil, and create new wet areas. These changes help streams store more carbon.”及第四段“This reshapes the ecosystem and increases the carbon stored in the land.”可推断,河狸对当地生态系统有益。
31. D 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,根据文章主要内容,尤其是第一段“A new international study... suggests these animals can turn river systems into powerful carbon dioxide (CO2) sinks by reshaping wetlands and waterways.”可在,本文主要介绍河狸如何通过建造水坝和湿地来促进碳储存,从而帮助应对气候变化。由此可推断,D项最能概括全文主旨大意,适合做本文标题。
【语篇导读】
本文是一篇说明文。最新研究表明,运动强度并非越高越减肥,因为身体会通过降低静息代谢等方式减少额外能量消耗。
【答案解析】
32. A 细节理解题。根据第一段可知,文中要澄清的误解正是“运动有助减肥”。
33. B 推理判断题。根据第二段“...says David Stensel...‘Exercise is still good for you in a host of other ways. But it helps us understand why not everyone gets the weight loss they expect with exercise.’”可推断,该发现让我们对锻炼与减肥的关系有了新的认识。
34. D 推理判断题。根据第三段研究过程和结果可推断,整个研究的核心目的就是探究运动如何影响全天热量消耗。
35. C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“‘Even though gym machines show how many calories you burn during a workout, active people make up for it by burning fewer calories during the rest of the day,’ says Pontzer...”可知,Pontzer认为高运动量者在非运动时段消耗的热量更少。
【语篇导读】
本文是一篇说明文。文章向家长提供四条实用建议,倡导把阅读变成轻松愉快的家庭活动,从而激发孩子终身阅读的兴趣。
【答案解析】
36. G 根据空前“The key to encouraging kids to read at home is to make it an enjoyable experience, not a task.”及空后“Here are some helpful tips to share with your students’ families to make reading more exciting.”可知,空缺处需补一句说明“愉快体验”带来的积极结果,而G项“当阅读变得有趣时,孩子们就可能养成终身热爱阅读的习惯”恰好阐释结果,与后文的建议形成“因果—对策”逻辑。
37. A 根据本节主要内容,尤其是“Giving children the freedom to pick books that match their interests and reading levels can make a huge difference”可知,本节主要强调“让孩子自己选书”。
A项与后文同义复现,是对本节主要内容的精准概括。
38. D 根据空前“Many kids today are drawn to digital reading platforms like e-books and audiobooks.”及空后“These tools offer a wide range of books...”可知,空缺处需补一句说明“科技带来的好处”,D项既承接本节主题句,又引出后文具体功能,逻辑连贯。
39. E 根据空前“Not only does this help children improve their reading skills, but it also strengthens family bonds. Parents can model good reading habits, and children can share their thoughts on what they are reading.”可知,空缺处需一句总结性评价,E项把“家庭共读”上升为“人人享受的社交活动”,且与上文“share their thoughts”和“strengthens family bonds”呼应。
40. F根据本节主题句及空后“You can give them a small reward or simply acknowledge their hard work.”可知,F项直接点出“表扬”这一主旨,与后文形成总分关系。
【语篇导读】
本文是一篇记叙文。22岁的Holly Cooke因移居伦敦深感孤独,遂创立“伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部”,五年间将线上社群扩展至3.5万人,帮助众多女性建立友谊并摆脱孤独。
【答案解析】
41. A 根据空后“having no one to spend her free time with.”可知,Cooke倍感孤独(loneliness)。
42. C 根据空前“she moved from Stoke-on-Trent to London,”及空后“but she didn’t know anyone.”可知,Cooke移居伦敦,想开启崭新(fresh)生活。
43. A 根据空后“as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do these things alone.”可知,Cooke原本憧憬着像以前那样生活。此处“had high hopes of”意为“满怀希望”。
44. B 根据第二段“but she didn’t want to do these things alone.”、根据空前“As the weekends passed,”及空后“She even searched online for...”可知,Cooke愈发渴望(eager)陪伴。
45. D 根据空前上网搜索及空后“on how to make friends in London, but didn’t find much help.”可知,Cooke想搜索在伦敦如何交友的建议(tips)。
46. C 根据第45题解析及空后“on social media”可知,Cooke在社交媒体上偶然碰到(came across)几位同样孤单的女孩。
47. A 根据第46题解析及倒数第二段“Slowly, the group grew. Now, five years later, the club has over 35,000 members.”可知,Cooke创建(found)了“伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部”。
48. B 根据第47题解析、空前“invited the women she had met online”及空后“She then planned a brunch for them to meet in person.”可知,Cooke邀请自己的网友加入(participate)。
49. C 根据空前“‘I was so nervous,’”及空后“‘I even asked a friend from out of town to come.’”可知,Cooke担心没人露面(turn up)。stand down意为“辞职、退出竞选”。
50. B 根据第48题解析及空后“five women attended, and they all got along well.”可知,此处表示线下见面的结果。Eventually意为“最终、终于”,符合语境。
51. B 根据第50题解析、空前“This proved that she wasn’t the only one feeling lonely.”及下文介绍的后续活动可知,此次线下见面会让Cooke颇受鼓舞(Inspired)。

【语篇导读】
本文是一篇说明文。研究人员利用13世纪马拉地语(Marathi)诗人Cakradhara笔下的刺槐意象及古曲、传说,重建印度西部草原的历史植被,从而证明草原并非简单由森林破坏而来,并为未来的植被修复提供依据。
【答案解析】
56. the 考查冠词。根据空后“earliest texts written in Marathi”可知,形容词最高级前面需要加上定冠词the。
57. spoken 考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知,此处填非谓语动词;动词speak与其逻辑主语a language之间为动宾关系,故此处填speak的过去分词spoken作后置定语。
58. to represent 考查非谓语动词。“use sth. to do sth.”为固定结构,表示“用某物来做某事”,其中动词不定式作目的状语。
59. original 考查词形转换。该空位于不定冠词an和名词 description,故填origin的形容词形式original。an original description 在此意为“最早的描述”。
60. and 考查连词。此处tree planting与forest restoration为并列成分,故用并列连词and连接。
61. grew 考查动词时态。根据空前时间副词once可知,此处填grow的过去式grew。
62. closely 考查词形转换。此处填入的词需修饰其后的动词matched,故填close的副词形式closely,表示“紧密地、密切地”。注:虽然close也可用作副词,但表示“紧挨着、靠近”,与此处语境不合。
63. amazing 考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知,此处填入的单词作表语,描述“令人惊讶的事物”,故用amaze的现在分词amazing用作形容词;若用amazed则指人感到惊讶,与此处语境不合。
64. to 考查介词。“be similar to...”为固定搭配,表示“与……相似”。
65. who/that 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,该空引导一个限制性定语从句,且从句中缺少主语;先行词为researchers,指人,故此处填关系代词who或that。
One possible version:
My English Learning Journey
My journey with learning English began when I was a third-grader. In the beginning, I found it hard to understand the rules of grammar and remember vocabulary. However, with the help of teachers, books, and online resources, I’ve gradually improved. My reading and writing skills have developed significantly, but I still face challenges with listening and speaking.
Now, my goal is to become fluent in speaking and improve my listening skills. I hope to engage in conversations with confidence and understand native speakers better. In the future, I want to use English naturally and comfortably in various situations, both in school and beyond. (103 words)
One possible version:
Taking a deep breath, Eliza knocked on the door. “Come in,” Ms. White called from inside. “Ah, Eliza! Have you thought about the bulletin board?” Ms. White asked. Eliza expressed her concerns about her messy handwriting. Ms. White reassured her, saying it wasn’t about perfection but about doing her best. She encouraged Eliza to focus on her creativity and positive energy. Eliza hesitated, still unsure, but Ms. White reminded her that trying, even with doubts, was what mattered most. Eliza felt her nerves slowly calm down. After some thought, she nodded, “OK, I’ll do it. I’ll give it a try.” (91 words)
Ms. White’s face lit up with a big smile as Eliza nodded. “That’s the spirit, Eliza! I knew you’d come around. I’ll give you everything you need, and if you ever need help, I’m here.” “Thanks, Ms. White,” Eliza said, feeling much lighter. “I’ll do my best!” As she left the office, Eliza felt a new sense of pride. She wasn’t sure how the bulletin board would turn out, but she knew one thing for sure: she was going to give it her best effort. It wasn’t about being perfect. It was about learning, growing, and trying new things. (87 words)
