Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China’s Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds walking through the water. “I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings,” Ma recalls. He was later told that the birds were flamingos (火烈鸟), which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature’s red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife. “The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometres and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began paying more attention to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development centre was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. “The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was paid by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. “The lake’s ecology is getting better,” Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. “Some of them are my old friends,” he says.
4. Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day?
A. To observe the flamingos closely. B. To come across the flamingos again.
C. To serve as a keeper of the lake. D. To admire the scenery around the lake.
5. What does the underlined phrase “interfering with” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Sharing space with. B. Causing problems to.
C. Bringing benefits to. D. Losing control of.
6. What can be inferred about Yuncheng Salt Lake from Paragraph 3?
A. It is still used as a salt production base.
B. Its restoration will be carried out soon.
C. It’s home to 292 types of endangered wildlife.
D. The protection of its ecology is of great importance.
7. Which word can best describe Ma?
A. Responsible. B. Creative. C. Honest. D. Humorous.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一个运城盐湖的守卫者和生态保护的重要性。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”(马说:“这些鸟被这里良好的环境所吸引。我会尽最大努力保护这片湖泊,以便让鸟儿每年都能来到这里。”)”可知,他每天巡逻盐湖是为了保护生态,守卫盐湖。故选C。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”(马说:“这些鸟被这里良好的环境所吸引。我会尽最大努力保护这片湖泊,以便让鸟儿每年都能来到这里。”)”可知,马为了保护这个湖,让鸟儿每年都能来这里而开始巡逻盐湖,所以是为了阻止人类活动对野生动物造成不好的影响,推知interfering with 意为“干扰”。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city.(“盐湖最大的价值在于其生态,应当对其进行妥善的恢复和保护。”该市市长储祥好说道)”可知,盐湖的最重要价值在于它的生态,需要正确地恢复和保护,所以保护盐湖的生态是非常重要的。故选D。
【7题详解】

A new Digital Matching Platform (平台) has been started in Kenya. It hopes to connect Kenyan women and young people with green job chances, and also give them digital skill training and career guidance. The platform links job hunters directly with employers in important green fields, such as renewable energy, sustainable farming, waste handling and ecotourism. It’s a necessary way to solve Kenya’s serious youth employment problem — about one million young people join the job market every year.
Women in Kenya are the group that faces the most difficulties in the green job market. They can’t get the chances in the new green fields because they can’t get relevant information. They have few social connections and face unfair job-hiring rules. Many young people, especially women, can’t take the green job chances just because they don’t know where to begin. The platform will offer them proper training and guidance to make sure the jobs provided meet the market’s needs and can last for a long time.
Made for mobile phones first, the platform serves users who have little digital access. It provides job hunters with personalized job notices, skill tests, learning materials and career advice. And for employers, it offers them tools to choose workers based on their ability and fair recruitment (招聘), which can help companies hire more women and young people in an efficient and fair way.
Thomas Jaeschke, head of a training programme, points out that women’s full participation is the key to green development. He also argues that the platform not only makes the quality of jobs better, but also encourages companies to use fair practices for women. By keeping an eye on the results all the time, the platform will make its services better and spread in more places. It will help more Kenyan women and young people get stable and meaningful green jobs for a long time.
8. Why is the new platform established?
A. To train people to work on different jobs.
B. To solve the youth’s economic problems.
C. To connect job hunters to working opportunities.
D. To help job hunters contact employers in person.
9. What can be known about the women in Kenya from paragraph 2?
A. They have little green job access.
B. They are treated unfairly in their families.
C. They don’t know where to begin when hired.
D. They have been offered training and guidance.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The benefits for job hunters.
B. The services of the platform.
C. The development of the platform.
D. The requirements for the platform’s users.
11. What do Thomas Jaeschke’s words show in the last paragraph?
A. The platform helps improve job quality.
B. He will keep an eye on the hiring results.
C. Women can be treated fairly in companies.
D. All women should participate in green jobs.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是肯尼亚新推出的数字匹配平台,该平台旨在帮助女性和年轻人获得绿色就业机会,并提供数字技能培训和职业指导。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A new Digital Matching Platform has been started in Kenya. It hopes to connect Kenyan women and young people with green job chances, and also give them digital skill training and career guidance. (肯尼亚启动了一个新的数字匹配平台。它希望将肯尼亚的女性和年轻人与绿色就业机会联系起来,并为他们提供数字技能培训和职业指导。)”可知,该平台建立的目的是将求职者和绿色就业机会联系起来。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Women in Kenya are the group that faces the most difficulties in the green job market. They can’t get the chances in the new green fields because they can’t get relevant information. (肯尼亚的女性是在绿色就业市场中面临最多困难的群体。她们无法获得新绿色领域的机会,因为她们无法获取相关信息。)”可知,肯尼亚女性在绿色就业市场中机会很少。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“It provides job hunters with personalized job notices, skill tests, learning materials and career advice. And for employers, it offers them tools to choose workers based on their ability and fair recruitment (招聘), which can help companies hire more women and young people in an efficient and fair way. (它为求职者提供个性化的职位通知、技能测试、学习材料和职业建议。对于雇主,它提供基于能力和公平招聘的选工工具,这可以帮助公司以高效和公平的方式雇用更多女性和年轻人)”可知,本段主要介绍平台为求职者和雇主提供的各项服务。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“He also argues that the platform not only makes the quality of jobs better, but also encourages companies to use fair practices for women. (他还认为,该平台不仅提高了工作质量,还鼓励公司对女性采用公平的用工方式。)”可知,Thomas Jaeschke的话表明该平台有助于提高工作质量。
D
As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. However, a recent study suggests that wild nature within cities plays a crucial role in our daily lives, offering benefits that beautifully landscaped parks cannot fully replace.
Researchers from the University of Washington studied visitors to Seward Park in Seattle, an area that contains both landscaped sections and wilder, unmaintained forest patches. They found that people who spent time in the wilder portions of the park reported feeling a deeper sense of peace and renewal compared to those who stayed in the manicured (修剪整齐的) areas. The researchers noted that wild nature provides an environment where people can escape the strict order of city life.
Interestingly, the study also revealed that interacting with wild nature can improve our mental function. In the wild forest, people are forced to be more observant — navigating uneven paths and noticing the subtle movements of birds and insects. This active engagement stimulates (刺激) the brain in ways that simply walking along a paved path does not. Furthermore, natural sounds and sights, such as the rustling of leaves or the flowing of a stream, have been proven to lower stress hormones and restore our focus.
Despite these findings, urban wild spaces are rapidly disappearing. Many city planners view these untidy areas as useless or even unsafe, preferring to replace them with orderly parks or commercial developments. However, the researchers argue that we must recognize the unique value of urban wildness. It is not just about preserving biodiversity; it is about preserving our own well-being. Protecting these wild pockets within our cities is essential for maintaining a healthy human-nature relationship. After all, we are not separate from nature; we are part of it, and our minds and bodies thrive when we allow nature to exist alongside us in its wildest forms.
12. According to the study, what is the advantage of wild nature over landscaped parks?
A. It offers more space for physical exercise.
B. It brings a deeper feeling of peace and renewal.
C. It provides cleaner air and water for citizens.
D. It attracts a wider variety of wild animals.
13. How does interacting with wild nature improve mental function according to paragraph 3?
A. By encouraging active observation and engagement.
B. By providing perfectly paved paths for walking.
C. By offering quiet places for deep thinking.
D. By teaching people how to survive in the wild.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards replacing urban wild spaces with orderly parks?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Opposed. D. Ambiguous.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Decline of Urban Green Spaces
B. City Planning: Order Over Wildness
C. How to Design Better City Parks
D. Urban Wild Nature: A Cure for City Life
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍城市野生自然的独特价值与保护必要性。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They found that people who spent time in the wilder portions of the park reported feeling a deeper sense of peace and renewal compared to those who stayed in the manicured (修剪整齐的) areas.(他们发现,与待在修剪整齐区域的人相比,在公园更原生态区域停留的人表示感受到了更深层的平静与焕新感。)”可知,野生自然相比景观公园的优势是能带来更深层的平静与焕新感。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“In the wild forest, people are forced to be more observant — navigating uneven paths and noticing the subtle movements of birds and insects. This active engagement stimulates (刺激) the brain in ways that simply walking along a paved path does not.(在野生森林里,人们会被迫变得更具观察力——穿行在不平坦的小径上,留意鸟类和昆虫的细微动静。这种主动参与的方式能以仅沿铺装步道行走无法实现的方式刺激大脑。)”可知,亲近野生自然通过促进主动观察与投入改善大脑机能。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, the researchers argue that we must recognize the unique value of urban wildness. It is not just about preserving biodiversity; it is about preserving our own well-being. Protecting these wild pockets within our cities is essential for maintaining a healthy human-nature relationship. After all, we are not separate from nature; we are part of it, and our minds and bodies thrive when we allow nature to exist alongside us in its wildest forms.(但研究人员提出,我们必须认识到城市野生环境的独特价值:这不仅关乎保护生物多样性,更关乎守护我们自身的福祉。保护城市里这些零散的野生片区,对于维系健康的人与自然关系至关重要。毕竟,我们并非与自然割裂,而是自然的一部分;当我们允许自然以最原生的形态与我们共存时,我们的身心都能得到充分滋养。)”可知,作者反对用规整公园取代城市野生空间的做法。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。全文围绕城市里的野生自然展开,阐述了它对城市居民的精神疗愈、心智提升等独特作用,D选项“Urban Wild Nature: A Cure for City Life(城市野生自然:城市生活的一剂良方)”最贴合文章核心主题。
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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Never Over-Study
When you spend too much time studying, you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become “junk time”. You think you’re studying but you’re just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and you’re not getting anywhere. ___16___ Taking breaks will make you energetic again and refresh your mind. Besides, it will give your mind sometime to take in what you have been doing.
● Plan your plan.
___17___ They actually plan what they are going to do. They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan, a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit. ___18___
● Front up to the toughest work first.
Many of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. That’s fair enough. The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy, your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then? ___19___ We all do it. We really shouldn’t, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.
● ___20___.
Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour. We promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Don’t text your friends, don’t chat while doing memory activities, don’t make phone calls, just focus on what you’re doing. Even if you focus on work for 15 minutes followed by 5 minutes of chatting, it’s better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting! You get that right?
A. Instead, take regular breaks.
B. You get tired and impatient and just give up.
C. Get off social networking sites and turn off the phone.
D. Top students don’t just randomly sit down and complete work.
E. Positive habits decide future success.
F. They make plans ahead.
G. Taking breaks can make you get everywhere.
【答案】16. A 17. D 18. E 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了五条科学的学习方法。
【16题详解】
上文“When you spend too much time studying, you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become “junk time”. (当你花费过多时间学习时,你会很快注意力涣散,投入的学习时间也会变成“低效时间”。)”指出长时间学习效率低下,下文提到“Taking breaks will make you energetic again.(休息能让你重新充满活力。)”说明休息的好处,上下文形成转折,A选项“Instead, take regular breaks.(相反,要定期休息。)”承接上文低效学习的问题,引出休息的好处。故选A。
【17题详解】
本段小标题为“Plan your plan.(对计划进行规划。)”,下文“They actually plan what they are going to do. They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. (他们确实会规划自己要做的事情。他们切实会规划学习时间,还会为要达成的目标设定计划。)”中they指代上文的群体,D选项“Top students don’t just randomly sit down and complete work.(优等生不会随意坐下来完成学习任务。)”引出优等生的学习方式,与下文他们擅长规划形成对应。故选D。
【18题详解】
上文“Set a plan, a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit.(制定计划与目标并坚持执行,这会形成固定规律,而规律是养成习惯的第一步。)”核心话题为习惯,E选项“Positive habits decide future success.(积极的习惯决定未来的成功。)”承接习惯这一话题,升华段落主旨。故选E。
【19题详解】
上文“The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy, your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then?(但这种方法唯一的问题是,在任何一段学习时间的开始,你都会耗尽自己的主要精力。因此,如果你用最佳精力去处理简单的部分,等到需要应对困难部分时,你的精力就会不足。那么接下来会发生什么呢?)”提出先做简单任务会导致精力耗尽,面对难题时陷入困境,询问后果,B选项“You get tired and impatient and just give up.(你会疲惫、不耐烦,最终放弃。)”精准回答了上文的问题,符合语境。故选B。
【20题详解】
根据下文“Just turn them off for an hour. We promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Don’t text your friends, don’t chat while doing memory activities, don’t make phone calls, just focus on what you’re doing. Even if you focus on work for 15 minutes followed by 5 minutes of chatting, it’s better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting!(把它们关闭一小时就好。我们保证,当你重新登录时,一切都不会改变。不要给朋友发信息,不要在进行记忆类学习时聊天,不要打电话,专注于手头的事情。即便专注学习15分钟后再聊天5分钟,也比边聊天边学习 30 分钟效果更好!)”可知,本段核心建议是关闭社交工具、专注学习,提到关掉设备、不发短信聊天。C选项“Get off social networking sites and turn off the phone.(远离社交网站,关掉手机)”精准概括本段主旨,适合作为段落小标题。故选C。

47. 读后续写
I was a volunteer for an organisation at the beginning of this year. The organisation is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event.
Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organisation, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.
Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today. ”
“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left,” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.
While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.
After a while, he asked, “What is cancer?”
I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it. ”
“Do children suffer from cancer, too?” asked the boy.
“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help. ” Lisa said and I nodded.
Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected?”
Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much. ”
The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one-dollar and five-dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children?”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Both Lisa and I were deeply touched.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children?” Lisa and I looked at each other. We couldn’t believe such a little boy would care. Though we didn’t believe it, we said “yes”. The boy put his hand in his pocket and took out some fivedollar bills. He said, “I just asked for them from my mother. I really want to help the children suffering from cancer. ”
Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. We thanked the boy, but he left soon. Looking at his back, both Lisa and I were greatly encouraged. We wanted to try harder to raise money. So instead of just standing there, we went to people and told them about our programme. At the end of the day, we raised over three thousand dollars, a lot more than Lisa and I had expected in the beginning.

Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China’s Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds walking through the water. “I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings,” Ma recalls. He was later told that the birds were flamingos (火烈鸟), which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature’s red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife. “The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometres and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began paying more attention to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development centre was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. “The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was paid by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. “The lake’s ecology is getting better,” Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. “Some of them are my old friends,” he says.
4. Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day?
A. To observe the flamingos closely. B. To come across the flamingos again.
C. To serve as a keeper of the lake. D. To admire the scenery around the lake.
5. What does the underlined phrase “interfering with” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Sharing space with. B. Causing problems to.
C. Bringing benefits to. D. Losing control of.

B. Its restoration will be carried out soon.
C. It’s home to 292 types of endangered wildlife.

A new Digital Matching Platform (平台) has been started in Kenya. It hopes to connect Kenyan women and young people with green job chances, and also give them digital skill training and career guidance. The platform links job hunters directly with employers in important green fields, such as renewable energy, sustainable farming, waste handling and ecotourism. It’s a necessary way to solve Kenya’s serious youth employment problem — about one million young people join the job market every year.
Women in Kenya are the group that faces the most difficulties in the green job market. They can’t get the chances in the new green fields because they can’t get relevant information. They have few social connections and face unfair job-hiring rules. Many young people, especially women, can’t take the green job chances just because they don’t know where to begin. The platform will offer them proper training and guidance to make sure the jobs provided meet the market’s needs and can last for a long time.
Made for mobile phones first, the platform serves users who have little digital access. It provides job hunters with personalized job notices, skill tests, learning materials and career advice. And for employers, it offers them tools to choose workers based on their ability and fair recruitment (招聘), which can help companies hire more women and young people in an efficient and fair way.
Thomas Jaeschke, head of a training programme, points out that women’s full participation is the key to green development. He also argues that the platform not only makes the quality of jobs better, but also encourages companies to use fair practices for women. By keeping an eye on the results all the time, the platform will make its services better and spread in more places. It will help more Kenyan women and young people get stable and meaningful green jobs for a long time.
8. Why is the new platform established?
A. To train people to work on different jobs.
B. To solve the youth’s economic problems.
C. To connect job hunters to working opportunities.
D. To help job hunters contact employers in person.
9. What can be known about the women in Kenya from paragraph 2?
A. They have little green job access.
B. They are treated unfairly in their families.
C. They don’t know where to begin when hired.
D. They have been offered training and guidance.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The benefits for job hunters.
B. The services of the platform.
C. The development of the platform.
D. The requirements for the platform’s users.
11. What do Thomas Jaeschke’s words show in the last paragraph?
A. The platform helps improve job quality.
B. He will keep an eye on the hiring results.
C. Women can be treated fairly in companies.
D. All women should participate in green jobs.
D
As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. However, a recent study suggests that wild nature within cities plays a crucial role in our daily lives, offering benefits that beautifully landscaped parks cannot fully replace.
Researchers from the University of Washington studied visitors to Seward Park in Seattle, an area that contains both landscaped sections and wilder, unmaintained forest patches. They found that people who spent time in the wilder portions of the park reported feeling a deeper sense of peace and renewal compared to those who stayed in the manicured (修剪整齐的) areas. The researchers noted that wild nature provides an environment where people can escape the strict order of city life.
Interestingly, the study also revealed that interacting with wild nature can improve our mental function. In the wild forest, people are forced to be more observant — navigating uneven paths and noticing the subtle movements of birds and insects. This active engagement stimulates (刺激) the brain in ways that simply walking along a paved path does not. Furthermore, natural sounds and sights, such as the rustling of leaves or the flowing of a stream, have been proven to lower stress hormones and restore our focus.
Despite these findings, urban wild spaces are rapidly disappearing. Many city planners view these untidy areas as useless or even unsafe, preferring to replace them with orderly parks or commercial developments. However, the researchers argue that we must recognize the unique value of urban wildness. It is not just about preserving biodiversity; it is about preserving our own well-being. Protecting these wild pockets within our cities is essential for maintaining a healthy human-nature relationship. After all, we are not separate from nature; we are part of it, and our minds and bodies thrive when we allow nature to exist alongside us in its wildest forms.
12. According to the study, what is the advantage of wild nature over landscaped parks?
A. It offers more space for physical exercise.
B. It brings a deeper feeling of peace and renewal.
C. It provides cleaner air and water for citizens.
D. It attracts a wider variety of wild animals.
13. How does interacting with wild nature improve mental function according to paragraph 3?
A. By encouraging active observation and engagement.
B. By providing perfectly paved paths for walking.
C. By offering quiet places for deep thinking.
D. By teaching people how to survive in the wild.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards replacing urban wild spaces with orderly parks?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Opposed. D. Ambiguous.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Decline of Urban Green Spaces

Never Over-Study
When you spend too much time studying, you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become “junk time”. You think you’re studying but you’re just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and you’re not getting anywhere. ___16___ Taking breaks will make you energetic again and refresh your mind. Besides, it will give your mind sometime to take in what you have been doing.
● Plan your plan.
___17___ They actually plan what they are going to do. They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan, a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit. ___18___
● Front up to the toughest work first.
Many of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. That’s fair enough. The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy, your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then? ___19___ We all do it. We really shouldn’t, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.
● ___20___.
Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour. We promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Don’t text your friends, don’t chat while doing memory activities, don’t make phone calls, just focus on what you’re doing. Even if you focus on work for 15 minutes followed by 5 minutes of chatting, it’s better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting! You get that right?
A. Instead, take regular breaks.
B. You get tired and impatient and just give up.
C. Get off social networking sites and turn off the phone.
D. Top students don’t just randomly sit down and complete work.
E. Positive habits decide future success.

47. 读后续写
I was a volunteer for an organisation at the beginning of this year. The organisation is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event.
Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organisation, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.
Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today. ”
“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left,” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.
While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.
After a while, he asked, “What is cancer?”
I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it. ”
“Do children suffer from cancer, too?” asked the boy.
“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help. ” Lisa said and I nodded.
Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected?”
Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much. ”
The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one-dollar and five-dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children?”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Both Lisa and I were deeply touched.
