A Poster Competition Inspired by Chimpanzee
Chimpanzee is set deep in the forests of Africa and it tells the true story of Oscar, a young chimp (黑猩猩) who is naturally curious and playful. Now Film Education invites students aged 5 — 11 to make their own Earth Day poster inspired by the film.
About the Competition
This activity gives students the chance to celebrate Earth Day in an unusual way — by creating a poster that shows the amazing settings and wildlife of their local area.

·Start by looking carefully at the Chimpanzee poster available here for ideas.
·Draw or create pictures of your local natural environment to be included in your poster — this could be your school grounds or the local park or beauty spot. It could even be your favourite tree.
·Collect a selection of these images.
·Create a “rough edit” by placing your chosen images on a blank piece of paper. Decide on the most impactful design.
·Once you’re happy with your poster, create your final version for submission (提交).

·You can use anything you like to create your poster: drawings, paintings, digitally created images or photographs of your local natural area.
·The size of your poster can be A4 or A3.

Miniatures (微缩模型) of the television and film sets that you love are so detailed that you think you are looking at photos of Monica’s living room from Friends, the comic store from The Big Bang Theory, or Flourish and Blotts bookshop from Harry Potter. They are the creations of Los Angeles artist Bridget McCarty whose attention to detail is absolutely amazing.
McCarty has not only recreated the sets, according to My Modern Met, she has also included tiny items (小物品) of what made the sets memorable. The miniatures are so detailed that it can take up to a month to complete one.
McCarty was inspired by the miniatures her grandmother collected. As a child, she was never allowed to touch those fine items, which made her even more attracted to them.
McCarty began making miniatures as a hobby while she was studying animation (动画) in school but she soon started going to exhibitions and set up a small online shop. People were so fascinated by her work that it became a full-time job when she was 22.
“Other artists bought my pieces and that motivated me to keep it up,” said McCarty.
McCarty makes them from what she described as “anything you can imagine”. “When I go to the craft store, watch my favorite TV shows and movies, and visit theme parks or other places, my mind will be blown by ideas,” she said.
The miniature sets are doll-sized rooms that are made from wooden boxes and are dimensionally 50 cm or less. The scale (比例) is perfect even to the food being cooked in a kitchen and the tiny bag of chips being poured into an equally tiny bowl.
“Though each work takes a lot of time and energy, I love having a finished piece and knowing I used my best skills to create it,” she said. “It can really take you away to another world and inspire many more people.”
24. Why are the television and film sets mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To show how amazing McCarty’s creations are.
B. To prove the popularity of McCarty’s art pieces.
C. To highlight the significance of art appreciation.
D. To illustrate the procedure of creating miniatures.
25. What caused McCarty to fall in love with miniatures?
A. Her college major. B. Her grandmother’s collections.
C. Other artists’ recognition. D. Frequent visits to exhibitions.
26. What does McCarty do to create her work?
A. Complete each piece within a few days. B. Take up many roles in the film industry.
C. Draw inspiration from daily experiences. D. Copy designs from other miniature artists.
27. What does McCarty think of creating miniatures?
A. Useless but relaxing. B. Effortless and inspiring.
C. Challenging but meaningful. D. Time-consuming and uninteresting.
C
According to NASA, wildfires have doubled worldwide because of climate change. Throughout the globe, governments and environmentalists have been trying to find ways to curb the fires. One particular national park in Spain has found a solution that has been keeping it fire-free for over ten years: donkeys (驴).
Since 2014, the Firefighting Donkey Battalion made up of 18 donkeys has been preventing wildfires in Doñana National Park in Doñana, Spain. The mission of these donkeys is simple: to eat the dry brush that usually causes and strengthens wildfires. The donkeys spend up to seven hours a day grazing (吃草) and clearing a 130 by 50 feet area of dried grass, scrub, and other vegetation (植被).
While humans can do this type of dry brush clearing, using donkeys for this work is arguably more effective. Donkeys are able to quietly walk in areas that vehicles can’t reach. In exchange for finishing the meal, the donkeys get lots of water and rest. No money or other supplies needed. The donkeys’ bodies are also built for this kind of environmental work, too. Their stomachs can eat dry grass repeatedly without issues. These daily grazings slowly but surely remove possible sources of fires.
Having donkeys or other animals graze in such areas was once more common in agriculture before modern farming. Some argue that the mechanization of farming and urbanization have reduced the number of grazing animals. This in turn leads to more vegetation growth, which creates dry spots where more wildfires can occur.
This method has been so successful that other areas of Spain have adopted it. In 2020, Tivissa started the Burros Bomberos project with three donkeys, and now they have 40 donkeys grazing and clearing nearly 400 hectares of land. The Andrea Association in Allariz uses a team of donkeys to clear and maintain nearly 1,000 hectares of a biosphere reserve. According to the GPS used to monitor the donkeys’ activity, the group of grazers travel 19 kilometers per day to feed.
28. What does the underlined word “curb” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Forecast. B. Survive. C. Monitor. D. Control.
29. What are the 18 donkeys expected to do?
A. Figure out signs of wildfires. B. Remove possible sources of fires.
C. Eat fresh grass in several parks. D. Help firefighters put out wildfires.
30. What does paragraph 3 focus on concerning donkeys?
A. Their advantages. B. Their responsibilities.
C. Their survival strategies. D. Their incredible achievements.
31. What can be known about the method?
A. It is widely accepted. B. It is limited to farmland.
C. It threatens donkeys’ lives. D. It was uncommon in the past.
D
More than a generation ago, email was an exciting novelty. When the magic words “you’ve got mail” popped on the screen, people raced to their computers to view their messages. Email ended the wait for the postman along with the need to search for paper and stamps to respond.
Now, change is in the air. As Gen Z embraces a lifestyle that values slower and more intentional ways of connecting, old-fashioned “snail mail” is regaining its popularity.
“Physical mail creates a pause (暂停),” Atlanta-based artist and graphic design student Jaylan Birdsong tells Dazed. “It asks you to slow down, touch paper, sit with an image, tape it to a wall, or place it into a journal.”
Birdsong said sharing her work online with her fans often made it feel as though it was disappearing into a void (空白). That feeling helped inspire the Perch Post, a mail club that sends a themed monthly envelope filled with her printed creations. What started as 25 fans has grown into a community of 1,600 and the number continues to rise.
People are also longing for connection, and pen pal services offer that free of charge, The Guardian reports. Writer Rachel Symes may be the fairy godmother of modern pen pals. As a health crisis hit in spring, 2020, Symes started the pen-pal matching service Penpalooza to connect people through physical letters. Today, more than 15,000 people have signed up for the service.
Symes tells The Guardian that as an outgoing person, hearing from people brings her joy. She also believes the positive impact goes both ways. “Know that your letter will be met with absolute excitement,” she says. “Whatever you put in the mail, even if it does not rise to the great letter-writing heights that you someday hope to reach, it is still a surprise on its way to enliven someone’s mailbox.”
Unlike email, which gets removed in a flash or lost in an overloaded inbox, letters can be stored in a carefully decorated box, treasured and reread over and over. When it comes to sparking joy, there is nothing like a letter in the mailbox.
32. What phenomenon is described in paragraph 1?
A. Email was highly popular. B. Computers were hardly seen.
C. People were closely connected. D. Various lifestyles were exchanged.
33. Why did Birdsong set up the Perch Post?
A. To battle loneliness. B. To collect others’ creations.
C. To live a rich and pressure-free life. D. To connect with her fans on a deeper level.
34. What does Symes say about writing letters to others?
A. It is beneficial to both sides. B. It can cause health problems.
C. It must be perfectly completed. D. It is a short-lived form of communication.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Mail Clubs Are Spreading Faster B. Letters Strengthen Connections
C. Email Has Yet to Become Popular D. Snail Mail is Making a Comeback

Participating in an adventurous physical activity can lead to higher levels of what experts call self-efficacy, or a belief in your abilities.

Adventurous people tend to have stronger feelings of satisfaction about how they’re living their lives. “____39____,” says Frank Farley, a professor at Temple University. “That is because participating in something challenging is associated with pleasure — even when the activity itself is difficult, completing it brings joy.”
You will feel a sense of flow.
When you’re in the zone, meaning highly focused and engaged, everything else except what you’re concentrating on falls away, and a general sense of well-being takes over. This feel-good state is known as the flow, and research shows that participants in adventure sports are able to achieve it. If your brain is in the flow state, rhythmic spikes of dopamine, which is associated with engagement and pleasure, are likely to occur. ____40____.

77. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My parents and I were on vacation at a Florida hotel. It was the first Easter we had ever spent away from home. Being an anxious and sensitive six-year-old, I had asked my mom several times if the Easter Bunny would be able to find us. She assured me there would be eggs.
On Easter morning, we found the Easter Bunny had left eggs on the hotel’s main lawn (草地) for all the kids. As I joined the other kids, I found they were much bigger than me. The hotel staff member in charge of the hunt explained the rules — only kids could pick up the eggs and adults could just provide help or encouragement. My heart raced as I watched the other kids get into a pose to start.
When the staff member yelled (大叫) “GO!”, the other kids ran from tree to tree looking for the plastic Easter eggs filled with candy. I ran to the closest tree but found nothing. My dad waved me on encouragingly as my mom walked behind me. When I looked across the lawn and saw others holding up eggs, I knew my chances were becoming slimmer.
Just then, my mom pointed to a small tree. “Look! There’s one!” A shiny blue egg was resting on the ground against the base. I looked up at her with excitement. But instead of smiling back, she was staring to the left, at a bigger kid. My mom said to me, “Run after me!”
I had never seen my petite (娇小的) mom run before. She had been born with weak knees and had worn special shoes to correct a foot problem. To be honest, I sometimes felt embarrassed for my mom’s “strange” figure. I still remembered the school fair where other kids pointed at her and whispered. From then on, I always begged her to stay behind me in crowded places. She never complained — she would just smile and take a step back.
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。
Desiring to get the egg, I followed my mom’s advice.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I held up the shiny blue egg and smiled at my mom.

Miniatures (微缩模型) of the television and film sets that you love are so detailed that you think you are looking at photos of Monica’s living room from Friends, the comic store from The Big Bang Theory, or Flourish and Blotts bookshop from Harry Potter. They are the creations of Los Angeles artist Bridget McCarty whose attention to detail is absolutely amazing.
McCarty has not only recreated the sets, according to My Modern Met, she has also included tiny items (小物品) of what made the sets memorable. The miniatures are so detailed that it can take up to a month to complete one.
McCarty was inspired by the miniatures her grandmother collected. As a child, she was never allowed to touch those fine items, which made her even more attracted to them.
McCarty began making miniatures as a hobby while she was studying animation (动画) in school but she soon started going to exhibitions and set up a small online shop. People were so fascinated by her work that it became a full-time job when she was 22.
“Other artists bought my pieces and that motivated me to keep it up,” said McCarty.
McCarty makes them from what she described as “anything you can imagine”. “When I go to the craft store, watch my favorite TV shows and movies, and visit theme parks or other places, my mind will be blown by ideas,” she said.
The miniature sets are doll-sized rooms that are made from wooden boxes and are dimensionally 50 cm or less. The scale (比例) is perfect even to the food being cooked in a kitchen and the tiny bag of chips being poured into an equally tiny bowl.
“Though each work takes a lot of time and energy, I love having a finished piece and knowing I used my best skills to create it,” she said. “It can really take you away to another world and inspire many more people.”
24. Why are the television and film sets mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To show how amazing McCarty’s creations are.
B. To prove the popularity of McCarty’s art pieces.
C. To highlight the significance of art appreciation.
D. To illustrate the procedure of creating miniatures.
25. What caused McCarty to fall in love with miniatures?
A. Her college major. B. Her grandmother’s collections.
C. Other artists’ recognition. D. Frequent visits to exhibitions.
26. What does McCarty do to create her work?
A. Complete each piece within a few days. B. Take up many roles in the film industry.
C. Draw inspiration from daily experiences. D. Copy designs from other miniature artists.
27. What does McCarty think of creating miniatures?
A. Useless but relaxing. B. Effortless and inspiring.
C. Challenging but meaningful. D. Time-consuming and uninteresting.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. C

【导语】本文主要介绍了洛杉矶艺术家Bridget McCarty受祖母收藏启发,制作出细节惊人的影视微缩模型,并分享了她的创作灵感与感受。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Miniatures (微缩模型) of the television and film sets that you love are so detailed that you think you are looking at photos of Monica’s living room from Friends, the comic store from The Big Bang Theory, or Flourish and Blotts bookshop from Harry Potter. They are the creations of Los Angeles artist Bridget McCarty whose attention to detail is absolutely amazing.(你喜爱的电视剧和电影场景的微缩模型如此精细,以至于你会以为自己看到的是《老友记》中莫妮卡客厅、《生活大爆炸》中漫画书店或《哈利·波特》中丽痕书店的照片。它们是洛杉矶艺术家Bridget McCarty的作品,她对细节的关注绝对令人惊叹)”可知,列举《老友记》《生活大爆炸》《哈利·波特》等经典场景,旨在说明这些微缩模型极其逼真,从而突出McCarty作品的惊人细节和艺术水准。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“McCarty was inspired by the miniatures her grandmother collected. As a child, she was never allowed to touch those fine items, which made her even more attracted to them.(麦卡蒂的灵感来源于她祖母收藏的微缩模型。小时候,她从不被允许触碰那些精美的物品,这反而让她对它们更加着迷)”可知,是祖母的收藏让麦卡蒂爱上了微缩模型。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“When I go to the craft store, watch my favorite TV shows and movies, and visit theme parks or other places, my mind will be blown by ideas, (当我去工艺品店、看我最喜欢的电视节目和电影、参观主题公园或其他地方时,我的脑海中会涌现出无数灵感)”可知,麦卡蒂从日常经历中汲取创作灵感。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Though each work takes a lot of time and energy, I love having a finished piece and knowing I used my best skills to create it,” she said. “It can really take you away to another world and inspire many more people.”(她说:“虽然每件作品都需要花费大量的时间和精力,但我喜欢完成一件作品,并且知道我用了我最好的技能来创作它。”。“它真的可以把你带到另一个世界,并激励更多的人)”可推知,McCarty认为制作微缩模型虽然耗时耗力,但充满意义。

According to NASA, wildfires have doubled worldwide because of climate change. Throughout the globe, governments and environmentalists have been trying to find ways to curb the fires. One particular national park in Spain has found a solution that has been keeping it fire-free for over ten years: donkeys (驴).
Since 2014, the Firefighting Donkey Battalion made up of 18 donkeys has been preventing wildfires in Doñana National Park in Doñana, Spain. The mission of these donkeys is simple: to eat the dry brush that usually causes and strengthens wildfires. The donkeys spend up to seven hours a day grazing (吃草) and clearing a 130 by 50 feet area of dried grass, scrub, and other vegetation (植被).
While humans can do this type of dry brush clearing, using donkeys for this work is arguably more effective. Donkeys are able to quietly walk in areas that vehicles can’t reach. In exchange for finishing the meal, the donkeys get lots of water and rest. No money or other supplies needed. The donkeys’ bodies are also built for this kind of environmental work, too. Their stomachs can eat dry grass repeatedly without issues. These daily grazings slowly but surely remove possible sources of fires.
Having donkeys or other animals graze in such areas was once more common in agriculture before modern farming. Some argue that the mechanization of farming and urbanization have reduced the number of grazing animals. This in turn leads to more vegetation growth, which creates dry spots where more wildfires can occur.
This method has been so successful that other areas of Spain have adopted it. In 2020, Tivissa started the Burros Bomberos project with three donkeys, and now they have 40 donkeys grazing and clearing nearly 400 hectares of land. The Andrea Association in Allariz uses a team of donkeys to clear and maintain nearly 1,000 hectares of a biosphere reserve. According to the GPS used to monitor the donkeys’ activity, the group of grazers travel 19 kilometers per day to feed.
28. What does the underlined word “curb” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Forecast. B. Survive. C. Monitor. D. Control.
29. What are the 18 donkeys expected to do?
A. Figure out signs of wildfires. B. Remove possible sources of fires.
C. Eat fresh grass in several parks. D. Help firefighters put out wildfires.
30. What does paragraph 3 focus on concerning donkeys?
A. Their advantages. B. Their responsibilities.
C. Their survival strategies. D. Their incredible achievements.
31. What can be known about the method?
A. It is widely accepted. B. It is limited to farmland.
C. It threatens donkeys’ lives. D. It was uncommon in the past.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了西班牙多尼亚纳国家公园利用驴群吃草清除干燥植被以预防野火的方法,该方式成效显著并在多地推广。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“According to NASA, wildfires have doubled worldwide because of climate change. Throughout the globe, governments and environmentalists have been trying to find ways to curb the fires. (据美国国家航空航天局称,由于气候变化,全球野火数量翻了一番。在全球范围内,政府和环保主义者一直在努力寻找curb火灾的方法)”可知,野火数量增加,所以政府和环保主义者会寻找控制火灾的方法,curb意为“控制”,与Control意义相近。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The mission of these donkeys is simple: to eat the dry brush that usually causes and strengthens wildfires. (这些驴的任务很简单:吃掉通常引发和加剧野火的干燥灌木)”以及第三段“These daily grazings slowly but surely remove possible sources of fires. (这些日常的吃草行为缓慢但确实地消除了可能的火源)”可知,18头驴的任务是吃掉干燥的灌木,这些灌木通常会引发并加剧野火。因此,它们被期望清除可能的火源。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“While humans can do this type of dry brush clearing, using donkeys for this work is arguably more effective. (虽然人类也可以做这种干燥灌木的清理工作,但使用驴来做这项工作可以说更有效)”及全段围绕驴能进入车辆难达区域、无须报酬、肠胃适应干草等内容的阐述可知,本段强调了驴子在这项工作中的优势。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This method has been so successful that other areas of Spain have adopted it. (这种方法非常成功,以至于西班牙的其他地区也采用了它)”可推知,该方法已得到广泛认可和应用。

More than a generation ago, email was an exciting novelty. When the magic words “you’ve got mail” popped on the screen, people raced to their computers to view their messages. Email ended the wait for the postman along with the need to search for paper and stamps to respond.
Now, change is in the air. As Gen Z embraces a lifestyle that values slower and more intentional ways of connecting, old-fashioned “snail mail” is regaining its popularity.
“Physical mail creates a pause (暂停),” Atlanta-based artist and graphic design student Jaylan Birdsong tells Dazed. “It asks you to slow down, touch paper, sit with an image, tape it to a wall, or place it into a journal.”
Birdsong said sharing her work online with her fans often made it feel as though it was disappearing into a void (空白). That feeling helped inspire the Perch Post, a mail club that sends a themed monthly envelope filled with her printed creations. What started as 25 fans has grown into a community of 1,600 and the number continues to rise.
People are also longing for connection, and pen pal services offer that free of charge, The Guardian reports. Writer Rachel Symes may be the fairy godmother of modern pen pals. As a health crisis hit in spring, 2020, Symes started the pen-pal matching service Penpalooza to connect people through physical letters. Today, more than 15,000 people have signed up for the service.
Symes tells The Guardian that as an outgoing person, hearing from people brings her joy. She also believes the positive impact goes both ways. “Know that your letter will be met with absolute excitement,” she says. “Whatever you put in the mail, even if it does not rise to the great letter-writing heights that you someday hope to reach, it is still a surprise on its way to enliven someone’s mailbox.”
Unlike email, which gets removed in a flash or lost in an overloaded inbox, letters can be stored in a carefully decorated box, treasured and reread over and over. When it comes to sparking joy, there is nothing like a letter in the mailbox.
32. What phenomenon is described in paragraph 1?
A. Email was highly popular. B. Computers were hardly seen.
C. People were closely connected. D. Various lifestyles were exchanged.
33. Why did Birdsong set up the Perch Post?
A. To battle loneliness. B. To collect others’ creations.
C. To live a rich and pressure-free life. D. To connect with her fans on a deeper level.
34. What does Symes say about writing letters to others?
A. It is beneficial to both sides. B. It can cause health problems.
C. It must be perfectly completed. D. It is a short-lived form of communication.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Mail Clubs Are Spreading Faster B. Letters Strengthen Connections
C. Email Has Yet to Become Popular D. Snail Mail is Making a Comeback
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述传统纸质书信再度流行,举例两个书信项目,说明手写信能带来深度情感联结,可长久珍藏,拥有电子邮件无法替代的独特魅力。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“More than a generation ago, email was an exciting novelty. When the magic words “you’ve got mail” popped on the screen, people raced to their computers to view their messages.(30多年以前,电子邮件还是一种令人兴奋的新奇事物。当屏幕上弹出“你有邮件”的神奇字样时,人们争先恐后地赶往电脑前查看自己的消息)”可知,当时电子邮件非常受欢迎。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Birdsong said sharing her work online with her fans often made it feel as though it was disappearing into a void (空白). That feeling helped inspire the Perch Post, a mail club that sends a themed monthly envelope filled with her printed creations.(Birdsong表示,她在网上与粉丝分享自己的作品,常常感觉这些作品仿佛正消失在虚空中。这种感受促使她创办了“Perch Post”——一个邮件俱乐部,每月发送一个主题信封,里面装满了她的印刷作品)”可知,线上分享作品仿佛消失于虚空,因此创办该项目,与粉丝建立更深层次联结。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“She also believes the positive impact goes both ways.(她还认为,这种积极影响是双向的)”可知,Symes认为写信带来的积极影响是双向的,对双方都有益。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Now, change is in the air. As Gen Z embraces a lifestyle that values slower and more intentional ways of connecting, old-fashioned “snail mail” is regaining its popularity.(如今,风潮正在转变。Z 世代推崇更慢节奏、更走心的交往方式,老式的“蜗牛邮件(纸质平信)”再度走红)”以及全文内容可知,本文围绕Z世代重新流行传统信件,并举例说明其回归趋势。D选项“蜗牛邮件再度走红”最符合文章标题。
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。
Trying new things and taking on challenges can make your brain sharper. ____36____. Here are four more benefits of being an adventure seeker.
You will adapt to change more easily.
____37____. They enjoy engaging with unfamiliar things, are naturally curious about the world, and creatively adapt to change instead of being fearful of it.
____38____.
Participating in an adventurous physical activity can lead to higher levels of what experts call self-efficacy, or a belief in your abilities. Other types of adventure — running for public office, doing improv (即兴表演) at your local comedy club, or taking virtual singing lessons — build your confidence, too. The more you push past your comfort zone and feel proud of yourself for doing so, the more confident you’ll become.
You will feel more content with life.
Adventurous people tend to have stronger feelings of satisfaction about how they’re living their lives. “____39____,” says Frank Farley, a professor at Temple University. “That is because participating in something challenging is associated with pleasure — even when the activity itself is difficult, completing it brings joy.”
You will feel a sense of flow.
When you’re in the zone, meaning highly focused and engaged, everything else except what you’re concentrating on falls away, and a general sense of well-being takes over. This feel-good state is known as the flow, and research shows that participants in adventure sports are able to achieve it. If your brain is in the flow state, rhythmic spikes of dopamine, which is associated with engagement and pleasure, are likely to occur. ____40____.
A. You will gain more confidence
B. They always have a sense of happiness
C. You will step out of your comfort zone
D. And that’s just one of the many things adventure does for you
E. Over time, adventurous activities may actually improve your health
F. Even better, those positive feelings can last beyond the activity itself
G. People who are drawn to thrill-seeking activities tend to accept uncertainty more easily
【答案】36. D 37. G 38. A 39. B 40. F
【解析】
【导语】文章主要说明了冒险尝试新事物益处颇多,能让人适应变化、增强自信、提升生活满足感,还可以进入心流状态,大脑分泌多巴胺,收获愉悦与良好的身心体验。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Trying new things and taking on challenges can make your brain sharper.(尝试新事物并迎接挑战可以让你的大脑变得更敏锐)”以及后文“Here are four more benefits of being an adventure seeker.(以下是成为探险者带来的另外四个好处)”可知,空前提到尝试新事物、迎接挑战能让大脑更敏锐,空后引出还有四个冒险的益处,D项“而这只是冒险能给你带来的众多好处之一”起到承上启下的作用,符合语境。
【37题详解】
根据后文“They enjoy engaging with unfamiliar things, are naturally curious about the world, and creatively adapt to change instead of being fearful of it.(他们喜欢接触陌生的事物,天生对世界充满好奇,并且能够创造性地适应变化,而不是害怕改变)”以及标题“You will adapt to change more easily.(你将更容易适应变化)”可知,本段主旨是你会更容易适应变化,空后描述这类人的特点是乐于接触陌生事物、主动适应变化而非恐惧,G项“喜欢追求刺激活动的人往往更容易接受不确定性”契合段落主题,衔接后文。
【38题详解】
根据后文“Participating in an adventurous physical activity can lead to higher levels of what experts call self-efficacy, or a belief in your abilities. Other types of adventure — running for public office, doing improv (即兴表演) at your local comedy club, or taking virtual singing lessons — build your confidence, too. The more you push past your comfort zone and feel proud of yourself for doing so, the more confident you’ll become.(参与充满挑战的体育活动可以提升专家所说的自我效能感,即对自己能力的信心。其他类型的冒险活动——比如竞选公职、在本地喜剧俱乐部进行即兴表演,或参加线上唱歌课程——同样有助于增强你的自信心。你越能突破舒适区,并为自己所取得的成就感到自豪,就越会变得自信)”可知,空处是本段小标题,本段内容讲述各类冒险活动能提升自我效能感、帮你建立自信,A项“你会获得更多自信”准确概括段落核心内容。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Adventurous people tend to have stronger feelings of satisfaction about how they’re living their lives.(冒险的人往往对自己的生活状态感到更加满足)”以及后文“That is because participating in something challenging is associated with pleasure — even when the activity itself is difficult, completing it brings joy.(这是因为参与一项具有挑战性的活动会带来愉悦感——即使活动本身很困难,完成它也会让人感到快乐)”可知,前文提到爱冒险的人对生活的满足感更强,空后教授解释参与有挑战性的事哪怕过程艰难,完成后也会带来快乐,B项“他们总是有幸福感”呼应上下文关于满足、愉悦的表述。
【40题详解】
根据上文“When you’re in the zone, meaning highly focused and engaged, everything else except what you’re concentrating on falls away, and a general sense of well-being takes over. This feel-good state is known as the flow, and research shows that participants in adventure sports are able to achieve it. If your brain is in the flow state, rhythmic spikes of dopamine, which is associated with engagement and pleasure, are likely to occur.(当你处于“心流”状态时,即高度专注且全神贯注,其他一切事物都会被抛在脑后,取而代之的是一种普遍的愉悦感。这种令人感到愉快的状态被称为“心流”,研究表明,参与冒险运动的人能够达到这种状态。当你的大脑进入心流状态时,与专注和愉悦相关的多巴胺会呈现出规律性的爆发)”可知,前文介绍心流状态下大脑会产生和投入、愉悦相关的多巴胺,F项“更棒的是,这些积极的感受甚至在活动结束后依然会延续”承接前文的愉悦状态,语义递进。

第二节 单句填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
56. All of ________ sudden, people voiced their opinions and I didn’t know who I should listen to. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】a
【解析】
【详解】句意:突然之间,人们都表达了自己的意见,我不知道该听谁的。固定搭配all of a sudden意为“突然,猛地一下”,sudden是辅音音素开头的单词,所以空处应用不定冠词a。
57. Keep quiet! The girl holding a few books ________ (question) by the police at the moment. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】is being questioned
【解析】
【详解】句意:安静点!那个拿着几本书的女孩正被警察盘问。根据“at the moment(此刻)”可知,此处表示动作正在进行,主语The girl和提示词question之间是被动关系,即女孩正被警察询问,因此需要使用现在进行时的被动语态,结构为am/is/are+being+过去分词,主语The girl是单数名词,be动词用is,question的过去分词为questioned。
58. Poorly ________ (fund), the hospital struggled to maintain basic services last year. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】funded
【解析】
【详解】句意:由于资金匮乏,这家医院去年难以维持基础服务。此处考查非谓语,主语the hospital与fund之间是被动关系,再由语境可知,应用过去分词funded作原因状语。
59. So far, the relationship between the two issues ________ (confirm) scientifically. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】has been confirmed
【解析】
【详解】句意:到目前为止,这两个问题之间的关联已经得到科学层面的证实。根据So far可知,这里用现在完成时,强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。句子主语 the relationship和confirm之间是被动关系,因此需要使用被动语态,助动词用has。
60. Undoubtedly, you have made great ________ (contribution) to the success of the project. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】contributions
【解析】
【详解】句意:毫无疑问,你对这个项目的成功做出了巨大贡献。空处作动词made的宾语,应用名词形式contribution,作“贡献”讲时为可数名词,此处表示泛指且前面无不定冠词修饰,应用复数形式contributions;make contributions to为固定搭配,意为“为……做出贡献”。
61. In art criticism, you must assume the artist has a secret message ____________ (hide) within the work. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】hidden
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:在艺术评论中,你必须假设艺术家在作品中隐藏着一种秘密信息。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰message,message和hide为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式。故填hidden。
62. The farmer was confident that the chickens would ________ (rescue) in the end. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】be rescued
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个农夫确信这些鸡最终会被救下来。从句主语the chickens和rescue之间是逻辑上的被动关系,需要使用被动语态。 再判断时态和形式,空格前有情态动词would,被动语态用be done的形式。
63. Sales rose after the announcement, ________ (demonstrate) consumers’ confidence in the new leader. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】demonstrating
【解析】
【详解】句意:公告发布后销量上升,显示出消费者对新领导的信心。句中已有谓语rose,空处作非谓语动词,demonstrate与逻辑主语Sales rose after the announcement之间为主动关系,空处应用现在分词demonstrating作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果。
64. They doubted the ________ (accurate) of the information in the file. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】accuracy
【解析】
【详解】句意:他们怀疑文件中信息的准确性。空处位于定冠词the之后,介词of之前,应用名词accuracy,作动词doubted的宾语。
65. ________ (frank) speaking, I prefer to stay at home rather than travel in the hot summer. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Frankly
【解析】
【详解】句意:坦白说,在炎热的夏天我宁愿待在家里也不愿去旅行。空处修饰speaking,应用副词frankly作状语,构成固定表达frankly speaking,意为“坦白说,老实说”,且空处位于句首,首字母需大写。
第三节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
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。
Two drones (无人机) capable of flying with loads of 400 kilograms have been playing a big part in rescue work after recent flooding in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region.
Upon their arrival on Wednesday from Guangzhou, Guangdong province, the drones were ____66____ (immediate) put to work airlifting emergency supplies to people trapped by floodwaters. Guangzhou Yunxiang UAV Co, the drone producer, sent a ____67____ (profession) rescue team of 10 certified pilots to the disaster area on Wednesday.
“We kept an eye on many villages. We saw them ____68____ (flood) by waters more than 2 meters deep, and that made ____69____ difficult for ground rescue teams to go in,” said Chen Gang, the chairman of the company.
The drones are also being used ____70____ (capture) photographs of the area. Their quick patrol surveys of affected villages ____71____ damaged roads are providing precise firsthand data that authorities can make use of to design evacuation (撤离) routes and make emergency repair plans. Repair materials can ____72____ (deliver) directly to the broken road sections, significantly improving the efficiency of post-disaster restoration.
“A ____73____ (two) team of drone operators, together with several drones, will soon be sent to the stricken areas in Guangxi for reinforcement,” Chen said.
“____74____ (look) ahead, the company hopes to cooperate with authorities on a regular low-altitude emergency response agreement ____75____ plans to expand (拓展) drone missions to include landslide surveys and forest fire prevention and control are laid out,” he added.
【答案】66. immediately
67. professional
68. flooded
69. it 70. to capture
71. and 72. be delivered
73. second 74. Looking
75. where
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了两架载重400公斤的无人机在广西洪灾救援中发挥重要作用,用于空运物资、勘测灾情,助力灾后恢复与应急响应。
【66题详解】
考查副词。句意:周三,无人机从广东省广州市抵达后,立即投入工作,向被洪水围困的人们空运应急物资。空处修饰动词短语put to work,应用副词immediately作状语,表示“立即;马上”。
【67题详解】
考查形容词。句意:周三,无人机生产商广州云翔无人机有限公司向灾区派遣了一支由10名持证飞行员组成的专业救援队。空处用于名词短语rescue team之前,应用形容词professional作定语,表示“专业的”。
【68题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:该公司董事长陈刚表示:“我们密切关注着许多村庄。我们看到它们被2米多深的水淹没,这使得地面救援队很难进入。”空处考查“see+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,宾语them与动词flood之间为逻辑上的被动关系,且表示动作已完成,应用过去分词flooded作宾语补足语。
【69题详解】
考查代词。句意同上。空处考查“make it +形容词+for sb. to do sth.”固定句型,其中it作形式宾语,真正的宾语为后面的不定式短语to go in。
【70题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些无人机还被用于拍摄该地区的照片。be used to do sth.表示“被用来做某事”,所以空处应用动词不定式to capture。
【71题详解】
考查连词。句意:它们对受影响村庄和受损道路的快速巡逻勘测提供了精确的第一手数据,当局可以利用这些数据来设计疏散路线和制订紧急维修计划。空处连接并列的名词短语affected villages与damaged roads,表示“和”,应用并列连词and。
【72题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:修复材料可以直接运送到损坏的路段,大大提高了灾后恢复的效率。主语Repair materials与动词deliver之间为被动关系,且空前有情态动词can,应用be delivered,构成含有情态动词的被动语态。
【73题详解】
考查数词。句意:陈说:“另一批无人机操作员和几架无人机将很快被派往广西灾区增援。”空处修饰名词team,表示“又一;再一”,这里为“不定冠词+序数词”结构,所以应用second。
【74题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他补充道:“展望未来,公司希望与当局合作,制定一项定期的低空应急响应协议,在该协议中,拓展无人机任务以包括山体滑坡调查和森林火灾预防与控制的计划被制订出来。”空处已有谓语hopes,空处作非谓语动词,主语the company与动词look之间为主动关系,且表示伴随的动作,应用现在分词looking,句首单词首字母大写。
【75题详解】
考查定语从句。句意同上。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词agreement,从句中缺少地点状语,表示“在该协议中”,应用关系副词where引导。

77. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My parents and I were on vacation at a Florida hotel. It was the first Easter we had ever spent away from home. Being an anxious and sensitive six-year-old, I had asked my mom several times if the Easter Bunny would be able to find us. She assured me there would be eggs.
On Easter morning, we found the Easter Bunny had left eggs on the hotel’s main lawn (草地) for all the kids. As I joined the other kids, I found they were much bigger than me. The hotel staff member in charge of the hunt explained the rules — only kids could pick up the eggs and adults could just provide help or encouragement. My heart raced as I watched the other kids get into a pose to start.
When the staff member yelled (大叫) “GO!”, the other kids ran from tree to tree looking for the plastic Easter eggs filled with candy. I ran to the closest tree but found nothing. My dad waved me on encouragingly as my mom walked behind me. When I looked across the lawn and saw others holding up eggs, I knew my chances were becoming slimmer.
Just then, my mom pointed to a small tree. “Look! There’s one!” A shiny blue egg was resting on the ground against the base. I looked up at her with excitement. But instead of smiling back, she was staring to the left, at a bigger kid. My mom said to me, “Run after me!”
I had never seen my petite (娇小的) mom run before. She had been born with weak knees and had worn special shoes to correct a foot problem. To be honest, I sometimes felt embarrassed for my mom’s “strange” figure. I still remembered the school fair where other kids pointed at her and whispered. From then on, I always begged her to stay behind me in crowded places. She never complained — she would just smile and take a step back.
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。
Desiring to get the egg, I followed my mom’s advice.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I held up the shiny blue egg and smiled at my mom.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Desiring to get the egg, I followed my mom’s advice. I chased her as fast as I could. Watching her from behind, I noticed her running was awkward — her knees bent oddly and her steps were uneven. Yet she never slowed down — neither did I. She reached the tree first, turned around, and waved her arms wildly. “Over here! Quick,” she shouted, standing right in front of the egg. I ran harder, my heart pounding. When I finally got there, I bent down and picked up the shiny blue egg before the other kid arrived.
I held up the shiny blue egg and smiled at my mom. She was out of breath, her face red, but her eyes were full of joy and pride. I suddenly remembered all the times I had felt ashamed of her petite figure. But at that time, I saw her differently. She had run, for the first time, for me — with her weak knees — so that I would not leave empty-handed and disappointed. From that day on, I never felt ashamed of my mom again. Her love made her the greatest person in my world.
