Sri Nihal Tammana,aged 13,of Edison,New Jersey,was named a winner of the 2022 Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes.The Barron Prize annually honors 25 outstanding young leaders who have made a significant positive impact on people,their communities,and the environment. Nihal set up Recycle My Battery to promote and facilitate the recycling of used batteries.His nonprofit places free battery recycling bins()and educates young people and adults about battery recycling.In just three years he has built a team of more than 250 student volunteers across the globe who have recycled nearly 200,000 batteries and educated millions of people.Nihal learned at age 10 that 15 billion batteries are thrown away each year and that most end up in landfills where they pollute groundwater,harm the ecosystem,and can cause terrible fires. Inspired to solve the problem,he began collecting used batteries from his community.He put them in free recycling bins at stores like Staples until he was told he was bringing too many and had to stop. Undeterred,he reached out for help from Call2Recycle,the largest battery recycling nonprofit in North America.Call2Recycle agreed to assist and provided recycling bins for free,which were placed in schools,libraries, and other public places.Nihal's organization now operates across the US and is expanding to other countries including Canada,Switzerland,and India."Earth gives us so much-oxygen,food,water-everything!So it's important that we give something back when we can,"says Nihal. The Barron Prize was founded in 2001 by author T.A.Barron."Nothing is more inspiring than stories about heroic people who have truly made a difference to the world,"says T.A.Barron."And we need our heroes today more than ever.Not celebrities,but heroes-people whose character can inspire us all.That is the purpose of the Barron Prize:to shine the spotlight on these amazing young people so that their stories will inspire others. 24.What does Recycle My Battery intend to do? A.Make money by collecting used batteries.B.Promote used batterie across the globe. C.Protect the earth from used batteries.

C.The achievements of the Barron Prize winners. D.The inspiring story of a young environmentalist. c An upcoming wearable device (for the blind could help them move around public and outdoor spaces on their own,acting as "glasses"that guide them.The glasses are actually a headset,similar to the ones you might wear for VR(Virtual Reality)experiences.Unlike those headsets,this one doesn't show any pictures.Instead,it delivers soft shakes on your forehead,along with sound from built-in speakers,to guide you through public areas. The device is obvious in design.It has a sizeable sensor tixed on the forehead,a camera set in the front,and a large battery group at the back.It supports up to two hours of use on a single charge,and the whole package weighs lkg.The AI-powered system works out sensor readings(传感器读数)over 100 times a second.It helps the device understand where you're walking and what's in front of you,so you can avoid things that block the way. You can use your voice to ask for guidance to specific places.You can set locations like "home"or "work"in advance,and the device will understand simple instructions like "take me to my office",then lead you all the way to the right building. The device may take the place of a guide dog,which is perhaps the best possible choice for blind people to find their way around.But an application for a guide dog means a long wait and requires the blind to take on the big responsibility of caring for the dog over several years. So far,the company has invited more than 400 blind users in over 40 countries to test the glasses in real environments.If the device can deliver on its promise,it will provide a new level of personal freedom to people around the world living with blindness. 28.What does the device depend on to guide the blind through public areas? A.A VR headphone.B.Shakes and sound. C.A separate speaker. D.Pictures and videos. 29.What can we learn about the device from paragraph 2? A.Its design is quite ordinary. B.It can sense walking speed. C.It can check road conditions. D.Its battery can last very long. 30.Why does the author mention a guide dog? A.To promote the use of a guide dog. B.To tell the difficulty in raising a guide dog. C.To show a possible future of the device. D.To stress the weakness of the device. 31.What does the underlined word "promise"in the last paragraph refer to? A.Test service. B.Real situations. C.Technology support. D.Expected functions. D Wildlife tourism can be a powerful supporter in protecting nature,but it can also harm it.The question of whether wildlife travel is,on balance,good for wildlife is a difficult one,and there's no simple answer.The World Travel Tourism Council reported in 2019 that wildlife tourism contributes $120.1 billion to the global GDP,yet tourism makes up about 8%of global greenhouse gases,a major driver of climate change and biodiversity 样性)loss. Visiting popular wildlife destinations such as the Great Barrier Reef or Galapagos Islands often includes air travel,which disturbs (animals and can lead to habitat loss.Studies have shown that tourists can disturb nesting seabirds and feeding sea lions,and that dolphins and whales may change their behavior to avoid areas frequented by boats.Over-development of resources,introduction of non-native species,and pollution are other 试卷第4页，共8页 issues caused by tourism. Despite these disadvantages,many believe that properly organized tourism can play an important role in conservation ()The World Wide Fund For Nature(WWF)stated that international tourism can aid in fighting against poverty,cultural understanding,and biodiversity conservation.Data show that over 47,000 species are threatened with extinction,stressing the need for biodiversity conservation efforts. Tourism can be an important contributor to protected-area management costs,especially in areas lacking funding sources.For example,in Galapagos Islands,marine-based tourism brings nearly $178million every year. However,depending on tourism for conservation funding raises concerns.While accommodation providers and tour operators are increasingly applying environmentally friendly practices,it's important to reflect on the impacts of our travel choices.We must consider the frequency of flights taken and the conservation,and community benefits of each trip.The first step to travel responsibly is being aware of these impacts and trying to maximize benefits while minimizing harm to wildlife and habitats. In conclusion,wildlife tourism can promote economic development and provide funding for nature protection but it requires careful planning to ensure the results.It's an issue that demands thoughtful consideration of our travel habits and their broader influence on the environment. 32.What is one concern regarding wildlife tourism according to the text? A.Economic loss. B.Cultural difference. C.Habitat disturbance. D.Crowded destinations. 33.What does the WWF statement show about travelling abroad? A.It's a threat to biodiversity. B.It's a source of climate change. C.It's the main conservation funder. D.It's a possible conservation tool. 34.What does the author think of the dependence on tourism? A.It's a risky method. B.It's an excellent idea. C.It's overrated. D.It's totally safe. 35.What might the author agree with? A.Wildlife won't be harmed by tourism. B.Managed tourism helps conservation. C.Biodiversity conservation lacks funding. D.Environmentally friendly tourism is impossible. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。 选项中有两项为多余选项。 Rural Revitalization(乡村振兴)：New Look of Chinese Villages China's rural revitalization strategy has greatly changed villages across the country.36.Nowadays, rural areas have achieved great progress in economy,living conditions,environment and culture,showing a brand-new and lively look. agricultural products such as fruits and tea are sold nationwide through online live-streaming.Many villages develop eco-tourism and farm stay projects.These new industries create plenty of jobs,attracting many young people to return home to start their own businesses.

One freezing winter momning,a heavy snowstorm swept across the town overnight.Strong winds blew fiercely and thick snow covered the ground,blocking roads and burying small paths.The theater manager had called Joey the night before,telling him to stay indoors.Yet the old man's memory let him down.Deeply influenced by his long-time habit,he quietly slipped out before dawn.He only wore a thin coat and light shoes,with no hat or gloves to fight the cold. He moved with difficulty in the snow and soon lost his way.After wandering about for almost two hours,his legs turned weak and icy.He could hardly move forward,so he stood still beside a big snow pile outside neighbor Mrs.Aughtry's house,shaking violently.Snow lay all over his hair and shoulders,and his fingers were frozen hard. He spoke in soft,unclear voices and stared blankly into the wind,too tired to call for help.Few people would walk on this quiet street in such terrible conditions. At about half past six,Mrs.Aughtry stayed warm upstairs and happened to glance through the balcony )window.She noticed a thin figure standing without any movement in deep snow.Great anxiety washed over her, so she called her husband immediately.The couple decided to step out into the freezing storm and find out what was wrong. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph1: Braving the sharp wind and heavy snow,the couple walked up to the old man gently.
