B In Hazelwood,a group called Seedlings for Tomorrow gives every child three plants to grow in their own garden.Unlike a public park,these plants are theirs to keep forever.Kids"check out"at the city's greenhouse not with money,but by joining the group's Garden Buddy project.This project pairs each young gardener with an adult guide.They have a45-minute yirtual meeting each week to learn about gardening and nature."Every kid should feel the joy of growing something with their own hands,"said Orson Pike,the project director. Orson started the non-profit organization Seedlings for Tomorrow in 2022.Soon he realized that just giving away plants wasn't enough."Some groups think dropping off bupplies is helping.But if people don't know how to use them,it's like giving them a stone,"he explained.That's why the program focuses on teaching skills-like how to water plants properly,what seasons are best for planting,and how to protect flowers from msects At the greenhouse,children can pick from sunflowers,strawberries,lavender,and even small vegetable kits.There are guidebooks in both English and Welsh. Orson is already 70,but he's always been enthusiastic about the growth of the next generation.He believes that by letting kids choose what they love,they'll grow into passionate gardeners.Many kids even share their progress with classmates,making gardening a social activity. To attract more families,Seedlings for Tomorrow visits local primary schools and community centers. Orson also hopes to build small green stations around town where people can exchange seeds and gardening tips.The project has received $20,000 from the UK-based Ecology Fund.The fund manager Elara Vane said, "Such programs are essential-they teach patience,responsibility and love for the environment,which helps kids both in and out of school,"adding that parents have noticed their children becoming more confident since joining the project. 24.What can a kid do by joining Garden Buddy project?

Scientists from the University of Florida have recently reported on the world's largest nesting site for freshwater turtles(海龟). Giant South American River Turtles are large turtles that live in rivers in South America.They get their name from the size of the adults,which can weigh over 135 pounds.These turtles are imperiled since they have to face people engaged in unlawful hunting of them for the sale of their meat and eggs,and the loss of their habitats.In July and August each year,female turtles gather in large numbers to nest in the sandbanks of the Guapore River. Scientists use drones()to count turtles by taking pictures from above,which are combined into a large,detailed image called orthomosaic.Counting the animals shown in an orthomosaic disturbs the animals less than having researchers walk through the area.However,the turtles often move around,so some may be counted more than once.Scientists marked1,187 gathering turtles,did 4 daily full-coverage drone surveys (1,500 images each)forl2 days.Studying the marked turtles revealed 20%of walking turtles repeated in images.Then they built a mathematical model based on the new orthomosaic analysis to accurately estimate the sandbank's turtle population. Ground observers counted roughly 16,000 turtles.Orthomosaic reviewers (not accounting for animal movement or markings)counted about 79,000.With the new statistical models applied,the site's turtle population was estimated at around 41,000."These numbers vary greatly-a problem for conservationists," UF researcher Ismael:Brack said."If scientists are unable to establish a precise count of individuals of a species,how will they know if the population is in decline or the protection works?" The team plans to spend more to perfect their monitoring methods by.conducting more drone flights. They.detail ways to adapt and apply this technique to conservation efforts with other species that are monitored and surveyed using drone-obtained orthomosaics."By combining information from multiple surveys,we can detect population trends,and we'll know where to invest in conservation actions,"Brack said. 28.What does the underlined word"imperiled"in paragraph 2 mean? A.Threatened. B.Appreciated. C.Blamed. D.Identified. 29.What is the disadvantage of the previous orthomosaic? A.It produced unclear images. B.It caused a double count. C.It required too much time. D.It disturbed the turtles greatly. 30.What does Brack emphasize in paragraph 4? A.The importance of accurate figures. B.The problem caused by varied data C.The failure of protection efforts. D.The equipment needed for observers. 31.What do the scientists think of their mathematical model? A.It's quite trendy B.It's easy to operate. C.It's too expensive. D.It's worth promoting. D Dreams,according to Carl Jung,reveal a certain amount ofreality hidden during waking consciousness. in Jungian philosophy,the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring orden to our lives.While Jung's mystical theories are debatable,he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming.A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways. This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic(新陈代谢的)systems,let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patters,which has long-term consequences on our memory system.One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM(Rapid Eye Movement)sleep,the stage in which we dream,the mice couldn't strengthen memories You might think this is just a sleep problem,but dreaming is inseparable from our.nighttime rest.We sleep in cycles,each lasting about 90minutes;in a sleep cycle,we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM.As the night progresses,REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep(one of the stages of non-REM sleep)decreases.The longer we sleep,the more time we spend in REM,which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning.If we sleep less than seven hours,however,it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM. The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer.We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly.However,we're not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant ()--dreams.Instead,we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep,which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM. We're paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways.For example,a 2021 study stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep,REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration of unassociated information.Volunteers that experienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring creative solutions. Rowan Hooper,the managing editor at New Scientist,writes that dreams that include an"emotional core" appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we do diet and exercise habits 32.What's Carl Jung's view about dreams? A.They cause chaos. B.They damage immunity. C.They reveal secrets. D.They mirror reality. 33.Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3? A.To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep. B.To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours. C.To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached. D.To show people often dream when waking up in the morning. 34.What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5? A.REM sleep promotes creativity. B REM sleep helps fight depression. C.The brain still receives new information during REM sleep. D.The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep. 35.What's the main idea of the passage? A.The importance of sleep lies in dreams. B.The absence of dreams is terrible for us. C Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize. D.Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Professional Organizer Breaks Down Her Unusual Job In 2014,Kayleen Kelly took her professional organizing business full-time.She thought she was starting a business that would consist mostly of making messy homes into "beautiful homes"and taking before and after photos.36 You often think primarily of the type of professional organizer who focuses directly on arranging a beautiful and pleasing space-even one that looks good on Instagram.However,many people who seek out Kelly's service are struggling with mental health issues,injuries,illness,or are experiencing the death of a loved one.37 They might not have the mental energy for the projects.

One Friday afternoon,I went with my friend Rocky to his home.As soon as the door opened,a pet dog jumped on Rocky and started licking his face.I asked Rocky,"Why is your pet doing this?"Rocky replied, "My doggy loves me so much.This is the way he shows his love.Animals can't speak,but they too have feelings."His reply was so touching that it made me think about keeping a pet dog. After going back home,I shared the whole incident with my mother and sister and expressed my desire. My mother said,"It is up to you,but if you keep a dog,it will be entirely your responsibility to look after it." My sister thought it wonderful to have a pet dog in the house,and she supported me.Now the real task for me was my father.We were pure vegetarians,and my father knew that animals needed non-vegetarian food for proper nutrition and growth.Therefore,my father was strictly against having a pet. That evening when my father came back home,I asked him for a pet dog.After listening to my request, he said a clear no.Several days later,while I was walking in a park near my house,I saw a homeless puppy who was in pain because of an injured ear.He looked weak and sad.Out of pity,I decided to take the little dog home. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 From that day on,I took good care of the puppy,who I named Deedo.
