【2题详解】
句意:当Marco看到许多可回收的塑料、纸张和金属物品时,他想到了一个主意。
前后句为时间先后关系,“When”意为“当……时”,引导时间状语从句,符合语境,If“如果”、Unless“除非”、Although“虽然”均不符合逻辑。

In Gansu province, three generations of workers have worked hard to stop desertification.
Babusha, a big sand dune (沙丘) at the edge (边缘) of the Tengger Desert, was a big cause of sandstorms in the 1980s. The desert destroyed farmland and villages in its south, and affected more than 30,000 people. However, with the effort of “the six old men” and their children and grandchildren, now, a green belt, which is 10 kilometers long and 8 kilometers wide, has been built.
This project is time-consuming. Guo Chaoming and five other villagers first had the idea of renting 5,000 hectares (公顷) of sandy land to plant trees in 1981. Their original goal was to prevent sandstorms from destroying their crops. At the time, Guo, the oldest of the six, was already 61, while Zhang Runyuan, the youngest, was not yet 50.
At first, they planted 667 hectares of saplings (幼苗). However, after the first sandstorm, no more than 30 percent survived. After countless failures, they successfully thought of the idea of burying wheat straw (埋麦秸) around trees to hold the sand.
Planting trees in the desert is difficult, but taking care of them was even more challenging. To protect the trees, they chose to live there for years, in a simple shelter they made from wooden poles and straw (木杆和稻草). They used bricks (砖头) to support a cooking pot (灶台), drank boiled water and ate steamed buns when hungry.
In the eyes of the six men, the Babusha forest farm became their most valuable possession. Even in the 1990s, when they lacked money, they didn’t cut down a single tree or grass to sell. Time passed by and four of the six passed away. But their children and grandchildren took up the torch and continued their work.
Now, the desert has changed into grassland and forest. The amount of plants has increased from less than 3% to more than 75%. In 2019, “the six old men” and their families were honored “Model of the Times” and “Most Beautiful Fighters” for their hard work.
16. In paragraph 1, “three generations of workers” refers to ________.
A. “The six old men”
B. Six scientists including Guo Chaoming, Zhang Runyuan and so on
C. “The six old men” and their children and grandchildren
D. More than 30,000 people in the villages
17. What was the original purpose of the six old men in renting the sandy land?
A. To contribute to the society.
B. To protect their own crops from sandstorms.
C. To improve their own skills by planting trees.
D. To deal with the environmental problem.
18. How did the six old men manage to increase the survival rate (比率) of saplings in the desert?
A. By planting fewer saplings.
B. By taking good care of saplings and watering them several times a day.
C. By keeping testing and failing several times.
D. By burying wheat straw to hold the sand.
19. Which of the following words best describe the six old men’s qualities?
A. Brave, determined and wealthy. B. Persistent, tough and principled.
C. Adventurous, open-minded and selfish. D. Positive, confident and curious.
20. The underline phrases “took up the torch” in paragraph 6 could be replaced by ________.
A. push their limits B. shoulder the responsibility
C. take the lead D. break new ground
【答案】16. C 17. B 18. D 19. B 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文的主旨是讲述在中国甘肃省,以六老汉及其子孙三代人为代表的工人们,通过长期艰苦的努力,成功地在腾格里沙漠边缘治理荒漠化,将沙漠变成了草原和森林,并因此获得了时代的楷模和最美奋斗者等荣誉称号。
【16题详解】
第二段明确指出:“with the effort of ‘the six old men’ and their children and grandchildren”,说明三代人包括“六老汉”及其子孙后代。
【17题详解】
第三段明确指出:“Their original goal was to prevent sandstorms from destroying their crops”,说明初衷是保护自己的庄稼免受沙尘暴破坏。
【18题详解】
第四段指出:“After countless failures, they successfully thought of the idea of burying wheat straw around trees to hold the sand”,说明他们通过埋麦秸固沙来提高成活率。
【19题详解】
第四段“After countless failures”体现“Persistent(坚持不懈的)”;第五段“live there for years”体现“tough(艰苦卓绝的)”;第六段“didn’t cut down a single tree or grass to sell”体现“principled(有原则的)”。
【20题详解】
第六段中“their children and grandchildren took up the torch and continued their work”表明子孙接替了老人的工作,因此“shoulder the responsibility”表示“承担责任”,符合语境。
阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
We all have experienced the strong link between smell and memory. A whiff of chlorine (一股氯气) probably reminds you of summer pool parties, while the scent of flowers may bring back memories of your grandma’s garden. Now, researchers from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) have found that breathing in pleasant smell could even help improve memory and learning.
The study, led by Cynthia Woo, invited 43 healthy adults aged between 60 and 85. The scientists divided them into two groups. The test group (实验组) was provided with some natural oils with different fragrances (芳香). They included orange, eucalyptus (桉树), lemon, peppermint (薄荷), rosemary (迷迭香), and lavender (熏衣草). However, the control group (对照组) only received fewer types of natural oils with different fragrances.
The participants were asked to use one of the scented oils (香精油) to perfume (使……充满香味) their homes for two hours every night for six months. They were also asked to change the fragrances every night.
At the end of the six months, all volunteers took a memory test. The test group outperformed the control group by a shocking 226 percent!
Woo and her team thought that it does not matter when the scents are taken in. However, varying the fragrances is the key. The scientists believe the changes of different smells helps activate (激活) the memory centers of human brains.
A new study has found that certain fragrances may help prevent memory loss in adults. The findings were published in the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience on July 24, 2023. The study also showed that certain fragrance could probably also help improve memory in younger people.
The UCI team’s next plans are to carry out a similar study on older people who already suffering from memory loss. They are eager to learn if pleasant smells can help reverse (逆转) the memory loss.
21. Which of the following sentence best summarizes the first paragraph?
A. Smell has something to do with one’s memory.
B. Taking in unpleasant smells may do good to our memory.
C. Smells can remind people of the past memories.
D. Pleasant smells help with people’s memory and learning.
22. What is the result of the study carried out by Cynthia Woo?
A. People from the control group had a better memory than people from the test group.
B. People who used more types of natural oils per night had poor memory.
C. The test group’s memory test results outstand the control group’s.
D. The changes of the smell do not affect people’s memory.
23. Which of the following factors (因素) influences our memory most?
A. When we breathe in the scents.
B. How long people take in the scents.
C. The total times that people take in the scents.
D. The varieties of the scents.
24. What will The UCI team probably do in the future?
A. They are going to test if certain fragrances can help the grown-ups to prevent memory loss.
B. They want to find out if certain fragrances help the young to improve their memory.
C. They are dying to find if certain fragrances help with the elderly’s memory loss.
D. They are longing for the reasons of the memory loss.
25. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Pleasant smells may help you remember things better
B. Fragrances are good for our health
C. Strong smells help people of all ages
D. Fragrances prevent memory loss
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. D 24. C 25. A

【答案】例文:
Recently, some social media platform (社交媒体平台) began to report the fact that some schools are limiting their students during the 10-minute break between classes. As a reporter from the School Daily, I think the reason why some schools ban students from leaving the classroom during the break time is that schools are worried about students’ safety. They are afraid that some students may hurt themselves while chasing in high speed.
In my opinion, schools should set students free by allowing them to do some beneficial activities as the break plays an important role in students’ physical and mental health. Take myself as an example, I prefer to hang out with some close friends and spend most of the time socializing with them, which helps me gain a sense of belonging within school. Meanwhile, it provides an outlet for me to express myself and seek emotional support from friends. What’s more, it is also a good choice to do some exercise during the break time. I show great interest in skipping as it helps to refresh my mind after a long periods of classes. Taking a ten-minute break enables me to step away from my studies, clear my thoughts and prepare myself for the next class.
All in all, 10-minute breaks are of great value. School should make better use of it for the benefit of students’ well-being and happiness.

阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
In Gansu province, three generations of workers have worked hard to stop desertification.
Babusha, a big sand dune (沙丘) at the edge (边缘) of the Tengger Desert, was a big cause of sandstorms in the 1980s. The desert destroyed farmland and villages in its south, and affected more than 30,000 people. However, with the effort of “the six old men” and their children and grandchildren, now, a green belt, which is 10 kilometers long and 8 kilometers wide, has been built.
This project is time-consuming. Guo Chaoming and five other villagers first had the idea of renting 5,000 hectares (公顷) of sandy land to plant trees in 1981. Their original goal was to prevent sandstorms from destroying their crops. At the time, Guo, the oldest of the six, was already 61, while Zhang Runyuan, the youngest, was not yet 50.
At first, they planted 667 hectares of saplings (幼苗). However, after the first sandstorm, no more than 30 percent survived. After countless failures, they successfully thought of the idea of burying wheat straw (埋麦秸) around trees to hold the sand.
Planting trees in the desert is difficult, but taking care of them was even more challenging. To protect the trees, they chose to live there for years, in a simple shelter they made from wooden poles and straw (木杆和稻草). They used bricks (砖头) to support a cooking pot (灶台), drank boiled water and ate steamed buns when hungry.
In the eyes of the six men, the Babusha forest farm became their most valuable possession. Even in the 1990s, when they lacked money, they didn’t cut down a single tree or grass to sell. Time passed by and four of the six passed away. But their children and grandchildren took up the torch and continued their work.
Now, the desert has changed into grassland and forest. The amount of plants has increased from less than 3% to more than 75%. In 2019, “the six old men” and their families were honored “Model of the Times” and “Most Beautiful Fighters” for their hard work.
16. In paragraph 1, “three generations of workers” refers to ________.
A. “The six old men”
B. Six scientists including Guo Chaoming, Zhang Runyuan and so on
C. “The six old men” and their children and grandchildren
D. More than 30,000 people in the villages
17. What was the original purpose of the six old men in renting the sandy land?
A. To contribute to the society.
B. To protect their own crops from sandstorms.
C. To improve their own skills by planting trees.
D. To deal with the environmental problem.
18. How did the six old men manage to increase the survival rate (比率) of saplings in the desert?
A. By planting fewer saplings.
B. By taking good care of saplings and watering them several times a day.
C. By keeping testing and failing several times.
D. By burying wheat straw to hold the sand.
19. Which of the following words best describe the six old men’s qualities?
A. Brave, determined and wealthy. B. Persistent, tough and principled.
C. Adventurous, open-minded and selfish. D. Positive, confident and curious.
20. The underline phrases “took up the torch” in paragraph 6 could be replaced by ________.
A. push their limits B. shoulder the responsibility
C. take the lead D. break new ground
阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
We all have experienced the strong link between smell and memory. A whiff of chlorine (一股氯气) probably reminds you of summer pool parties, while the scent of flowers may bring back memories of your grandma’s garden. Now, researchers from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) have found that breathing in pleasant smell could even help improve memory and learning.
The study, led by Cynthia Woo, invited 43 healthy adults aged between 60 and 85. The scientists divided them into two groups. The test group (实验组) was provided with some natural oils with different fragrances (芳香). They included orange, eucalyptus (桉树), lemon, peppermint (薄荷), rosemary (迷迭香), and lavender (熏衣草). However, the control group (对照组) only received fewer types of natural oils with different fragrances.
The participants were asked to use one of the scented oils (香精油) to perfume (使……充满香味) their homes for two hours every night for six months. They were also asked to change the fragrances every night.
At the end of the six months, all volunteers took a memory test. The test group outperformed the control group by a shocking 226 percent!
Woo and her team thought that it does not matter when the scents are taken in. However, varying the fragrances is the key. The scientists believe the changes of different smells helps activate (激活) the memory centers of human brains.
A new study has found that certain fragrances may help prevent memory loss in adults. The findings were published in the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience on July 24, 2023. The study also showed that certain fragrance could probably also help improve memory in younger people.
The UCI team’s next plans are to carry out a similar study on older people who already suffering from memory loss. They are eager to learn if pleasant smells can help reverse (逆转) the memory loss.
21. Which of the following sentence best summarizes the first paragraph?
A. Smell has something to do with one’s memory.
B. Taking in unpleasant smells may do good to our memory.
C. Smells can remind people of the past memories.
D. Pleasant smells help with people’s memory and learning.
22. What is the result of the study carried out by Cynthia Woo?
A. People from the control group had a better memory than people from the test group.
B. People who used more types of natural oils per night had poor memory.
C. The test group’s memory test results outstand the control group’s.
D. The changes of the smell do not affect people’s memory.
23. Which of the following factors (因素) influences our memory most?
A. When we breathe in the scents.
B. How long people take in the scents.
C. The total times that people take in the scents.
D. The varieties of the scents.
24. What will The UCI team probably do in the future?
A. They are going to test if certain fragrances can help the grown-ups to prevent memory loss.
B. They want to find out if certain fragrances help the young to improve their memory.
C. They are dying to find if certain fragrances help with the elderly’s memory loss.
D. They are longing for the reasons of the memory loss.
25. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Pleasant smells may help you remember things better
B. Fragrances are good for our health
C. Strong smells help people of all ages
D. Fragrances prevent memory loss
