一、阅读理解
Passage A
For centuries,the Swiss have been famous for their harmonious relationship with the alpine environment
This is not merely a romantic notion,it is a practical reality born of necessity and ingenuity.Living in a
landscape of towering mountains,deep valleys,and formidable winters,the Swiss leamed early on that
survival depended on a deep understanding and respect for the forces of nature.
One of the most remarkable examples of this is the Swiss system of avalanche protection.Avalanches are
a constant threat in the Alps,capable of destroying entire villages in seconds.Rather than tying to
conquer the mountains,the Swiss have developed a sophisticated,multi-layered approach to living with
this danger.This begins with meticulous land-use planning.For centuries,village layouts and building
codes have been shaped by an understanding of avalanche paths.Trees are not just a part of the
landscape,they are a critical defense.The forests ofSwitzerland,especially on slopes above settlements,
are carefully managed.Known as Schutzwald (protection forests),they are legally protected and actively
maintained to act as a natural barrier.Foresters selectively cut trees to ensure the forest remains healthy
and strong enough to hold back snow.
Beyond natural defenses,Swiss engineers have constructed an extensive network of structural defenses.
These include massive earth dams,steel snow bridges,and snow sheds that cover sections of roads and
railways.These structures are not eyesores;they are often built with aesthetic consideration,blending into
the mountain landscape.The knowledge behind this infrastructure is equally impressive.The Swiss
Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research (SLF)in Davos is a global leader in the field.
Researchers there constantly monitor snow conditions,issue avalanche warnings,and conduct
experiments
However,the most crucial component is the attitude of the people.In Switzerland,respect for nature is
taught from a young age.An awareness of the dangers of the mountains is woven into the fabric of daily
life.Hiking trails are clearly marked with difficulty levels and potential hazards.The concept of personal
responsibility is paramount.When an avalanche warning is high,people are expected to stay away from
high-risk areas,not because a law forces them to,but because a collective understanding dictates it.This
combination of advanced science,traditional knowledge,strict planning,and a deep-seated cultural
respect allows the Swiss to thive in a landscape that could easily be hostile.It is a powerful model for
how humanity can live "at one with nature,"not by dominating it,but by understanding its rhythms and
respecting its power.
()1.What is the main purpose of the Swiss system of avalanche protection?
A.To completely remove the threat of avalanches.
B.To show the advanced technology ofSwiss engineers.
C.To demonstrate how to live in harmony with natural dangers.
D.To attract more tourists to the Swiss Alps.
()2.The word "Schutzwald"in Paragraph 2 refers to forests that are
A.untouched by humans
B.specifically grown for timber
C.managed to protect settlements from avalanches
D.planted by foresters to increase biodiversity
()3.What can be inferred from the article about the Swiss attitude towards nature?
A.They believe nature must be conquered for survival.
B.They view nature as an obstacle to be overcome.
C.They foster a culture of responsibility and respect for natural forces.
D.They rely solely on technology to manage natural risks.
()4.Which of the following best summarizes the Swiss approach to living in the Alps?
A.A strict system oflaws and punishment.
B.A model that relies exclusively on advanced technology.
C.An integration of science,traditional practice,and cultural respect.
D.A focus on developing the economy,even at the expense of the environment.
Passage B
The idea that spending time in nature is good for us isn't new.However,a growing body of scientific
evidence is now quantifying these benefits,revealing that a"green prescription"could be as vital as a
healthy diet and exercise.This research goes beyond the simple feeling of relaxation to explore profound
impacts on our physical and mental well-being.
One key area of study is the effect of nature on stress reduction.Scientists have long known that modem,
urban environments,with their constant noise,crowds,and visual clutter,can elevate levels of cortisol,the
stress hormone.A groundbreaking study from Japan,known as "Shinin-yoku"or "forest bathing,"has
provided compelling data.Researchers found that participants who walked in a forest for a few hours had
significantly lower cortisol levels,reduced blood pressure,and improved immune function compared to
those who walked in a city environment.The effect was attributed not just to the physical activity,but to
the sensory experience of the forest:the sight of green,the sound of rustling leaves and birdsong,and the
smell of phytoncides-antimicrobial compounds released by trees.
The benefits extend to cognitive function.Our brains have a limited capacity for focused attention,which
can be depleted by the demands of daily life,leading to mental fatigue.Attention Restoration Theory
(ART)proposes that natural environments,nich with "soft fascination"-like the flow of a river or the
movement of clouds in the sky-allow our directed attention to rest and replenish.A study at the
University of Michigan demonstrated that a simple 50-minute walk in a natural setting improved memory
and attention spans by 20%compared to a walk in an urban setting.This restorative effect is increasingly
recognized as crucial for students and workers who face high cognitive demands.
Furthermore,access to nature is linked to greater social cohesion.Studies have shown that neighborhoods
with more green spaces,like parks and community gardens,have lower crime rates and stronger
community bonds.These spaces provide neutral ground for social interaction,encouraging residents to
know their neighbors.For children,playing in nature is linked to increased creativity,better problem-
solving skills,and a greater sense of wonder.
The challenge for the 21st century is to integrate this knowledge into our rapidly urbanizing world.
Architects are designing buildings with more greenery and biophilic elements.City planners are creating
"green conidors"to connect parks and wilderness areas.The message is clear:integrating nature into our
daily lives is not a luxury but a necessity for our health and survival.We must see ourselves not as
separate from nature,but as an integral part of it
()1.What does the term "green prescription"(Paragraph 1)most probably refer to?
A.A medication made from plants.
B.A doctor's recommendation to spend time in nature.
C.A plan for reducing carbon emissions.
D.A law requiring cities to plant more trees
()2.According to the Japanese study on "forest bathing,"what is one of the key causes of the health
benefits?
A.The physical challenge of hiking
B.The absence of all human-made sounds
C.The sensory stimuli of the forest environment
D.The higher concentration of oxygen in the air.
()3.Attention Restoration Theory (ART)suggests that natural environments help us because they
A.require our full and constant focus
B.provide a complete escape from mental work
C.use "soft fascination"to allow our attention to rest
D.are quiet and free from all distractions
()4.What is the main conclusion the author draws for the 21st century?
A.We should move out of cities to live in nature.
B.We must consciously incorporate nature into our modern urban life
C.Urbanization is a threat that cannot be reversed.
D.Technology can solve all problems related to urban stress.
()5.Where is this passage most likely to be found?
A.A travel brochure.
B.A scientific joural.
C.A fictional novel.
D.A history textbook.
二、完形填空
My grandmother was a woman of the soil.Her hands,rough and calloused,were a map of a life lived in
close(1)
with the land.Every spring,she would turn the earth in her small garden,a ritual that
felt as ancient as the seasons themselves.To me,a child of the digital age,this(2)
seemed like
a dull chore,a slow and pointless struggle against nature.
One summer,a terrible drought(3)
our region.The local news was filled with stories of
withered crops and desperate farmers.The lively greens of the fields transformed into a uniform,dusty
brown.For weeks,no rain fell.Our own garden,which my grandmother had planted with such(4)
began to wilt.The tomato plants drooped,their leaves curling inward,(5)

moisture.I was convinced that our little patch of green would not survive.
Yet,my grandmother's reaction was not one of panic.Each moming,before the sun became too harsh,
she would go out with a bucket,(6)
a precious ration of water to each plant.She didn't just
pour it,she poured it at the base,(7)
the roots.When I asked her why she didn't just hose
everything down,she simply said,"We must be helpers of nature,not its masters.We give what is
needed,not what is wanted."
Then,one scorching afternoon,the sky darkened.A low rumble of (8)
echoed across the
valley,followed by a spectacular flash of(9).The air grew heavy and electric.And then it
came-not a hard,destructive downpour,but a gentle,steady(10)
that soaked into the parched
ground.The rain fell for more than a day.
When the sun finally reappeared,the transformation was breathtaking.The world seemed to have been
washed clean.The garden,which I had been so sure was dying,was(11)
The leaves were
uncurled,standing tall and proud.Tiny droplets of water(12)
on the petals of the flowers like
jewels.My grandmother stood on the porch,a gentle smile on her face."Nature takes care of its own,"
she said,her voice full of a quiet (13)
In that moment,I understood something profound.Her work in the garden was not a fight against nature;
it was a(14)
with it.She understood the (15)
of the land,its needs and its cycles
She didn't try to control the rain or force growth.She simply created the conditions for life to flourish,
working with the earth,not against it.It was,I realized,an act of deep love and communion.

三、阅读短文回答问题
Read the following passage and answer the questions in complete sentences
In the Sahel region of africa,a vast semi-arid belt stretching south of the Sahara Desert,a quiet revolution
is taking place.For decades,this area has been synonymous with desertification,drought,and famine
Overgrazing,deforestation,and poor farming practices had tumned once fertile lands into barren dust.
However,a farmer-led movement is reversing this trend,demonstrating a powerful model for landscape
restoration.
The key to this transformation is an indigenous technique called "farmer-managed natural regeneration"
(FMNR).The principle is elegantly simple.Instead of planting new trees-a costly and often futile effort
in such a harsh climate-farmers identify and protect the tree stumps and roots that are already present
underground.In the past,these stumps were cleared and bumned to make way for crops.Now,farmers
select the strongest shoots from these stumps and carefully prune them to encourage them to grow into
trees.This process,repeated over several years,allows a dense network of trees to regenerate across the
farmlands
The results have been dramatic.In countries like Niger,farmers practicing FMNR have successfully
regenerated millions ofhectares ofland.Trees are reappearing in the fields.This "re-greening"has
multiple benefits.The trees provide shade for crops and livestock,reducing water evaporation from the
soil.Their leaves fall and decompose,enriching the soil with organic matter.Their roots help hold the soil
together,preventing erosion from wind and rain.Crucially,the trees also provide a source of fuelwood,
animal fodder,and fiuits,diversifying farmers'income and improving their food security.
This is not a top-down project funded by large intemnational organizations.It is a grassroots movement
driven by the farmers themselves,who have seen its benefits with their own eyes.They work collectively,
sharing knowledge and techniques.They have developed local rules for managing the trees,ensuring that
no one cuts them down for short-term gain.The success of FMNR challenges the conventional wisdom
that large-scale reforestation requires massive investment in planting.It shows that sometimes the most
powerful solution is to work with nature's inherent capacity for regeneration,allowing it to heal itself.
1.According to the passage,what is the main consideration for freshmen when choosing elective
courses?
2.What was the primary problem in the Sahel region that the farmer-led movement aims to solve?
3.What is the core principle of the "farmer-managed natural regeneration"(FMNR)technique?
4.List three benefits that the regenerated trees bring to the farmlands and farmers.
5.Why is this movement described as a"grassroots movement"?
6.What main challenge to conventional reforestation does the success of FMNR present?
四、短文填空
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。
On our planet,some of the most breathtaking landscapes are also the most challenging for human life
Mountains,with their extreme weather and thin air,present a constant test of(1)
Yet,for

For many mountain communities,(3)knowledge is passed down through generations.They

where to seek shelter during a storm.A(7)

This wisdom is an invaluable resource (9)

that can cope with (10)
droughts.These traditional systems are not just artifacts of the past,
they are dynamic and adaptable,offering(11)
solutions for building a resilient future
However,this knowledge is at risk of being lost.As younger generations move to cities in search of
different opportunities,the chain of oral tradition is(12)
isk of breaking.It is therefore(13)

Dear Chris,
I'm so glad to hear that you're interested in the Chinese philosophy of"Heaven and Man as One."In
simple terms,it means humans should live in harmony with nature,recognizing we are part of it,not its
master.
This idea is reflected in my daily life.My grandfather,for example,has a vegetable garden in our
backyard.He never uses harmful chemicals to kill pests.Instead,he grows flowers that attract ladybugs to
eat the aphids.He says we must work with nature,not against it.I also try to follow this by separating
waste,riding my bike to school,and avoiding single-use plastics.
I believe this ancient wisdom is crucial today.It reminds us that our well-being depends on a healthy
planet.By respecting nature's cycles and limits,we can find sustainable solutions to climate change and
pollution.It teaches us that to protect our future,we must furst protect our shared home.
Best wishes,
LiHua
