A(基础题)
(2026·衢州高一期中)Steve Wells is a British man who loves looking at trees.He spends most of his weekends doing so, plus evenings sometimes, alongside his day job.“I like giving my time to something worthwhile,” he says.“If I can help to protect our beautiful trees and woodlands, then I have spent my time well.”
In spring 2024, Steve joined Observatree, which is a non-profit project between several organisations and charities.It is run with 200 volunteers who have been trained to recognise new diseases and pest threats to UK trees.
He visits trees, whether individually in woodlands or in parks, to look for symptoms affecting their health.Also, he keeps reports on his findings and hands them in to the Woodland Trust where the information is added to a database for the use of professional researchers.“One of the good things about this project is that it is really flexible,” he explains.“The minimum contribution required is 12 surveys a year but it is easily achievable.Last year, I actually handed in 40 reports.”
Sometimes his work involves more than just looking at trees, with reports followed up with the collection of samples, which are sent to Forest Research for testing.“There are 22 main pests and diseases that need special attention, including ash dieback, sweet chestnut blight and the oak processionary moth,” explains Steve.
The Woodland Trust recently asked him to become a lead volunteer to help and support other volunteers, and he is excited about what his second year of surveying will bring.“If the trees could talk, I imagine the stories they could tell me about what has happened around them over the years.I really like surveying at places of historic interest for that reason, where some of the trees have been around for hundreds of years,” says Steve.
1.What makes Steve Wells think his time is “well-spent”?
A.He learns about tree-planting skills.
B.He helps protect trees and woodlands.
C.He earns extra money from volunteering.
D.He gets a chance to travel to different parks.
2.What extra work does Steve Wells sometimes do besides looking at trees?
A.Selling tree samples to Forest Research.
B.Managing the Woodland Trust's database.
C.Providing follow-up reports and tree samples.
D.Teaching local people how to prevent tree diseases.
3.What makes Steve like surveying trees at historic sites?
A.Better working conditions. B.Need for site protection.
C.More rewards for surveying. D.Curiosity about old trees' stories.
4.Which of the following words can best describe Steve Wells?
A.Determined and brave. B.Talented and patient.
C.Warm-hearted and devoted. D.Hard-working and traditional.
B(提升题)
(2026·开封高一期中)Recent winter storms have brought heavy rain and snow to California.This increase in snowpack has delayed the start of the wildfire season.Experts believe the fire season may be milder than usual, but conditions could change by July.
For now, fire activity in Southern California is expected to be below normal in May and June, while Northern California is likely to have an average fire season.Statewide, the wet season has been longer than usual, and more rain and snow may continue into April or early May.Lower elevations (海拔) are green and wet, while higher elevations are covered in snow.
The deeper the snowpack, the longer it takes to melt.This slows down the drying of vegetation and delays warm weather.In years with above-average snowpack, Northern California has seen fewer acres burned.However, climate change is affecting fire patterns.Fires are now reaching higher elevations where snow once prevented them.Some areas have fewer trees to protect snow from the sun, causing faster melting and shifting the risk from floods to droughts.
Rising temperatures are also pushing the snow line higher, making forests more likely to burn in summer.Some desert regions, which received extra rain, have grown more grass.Once these dry out by late spring, they could fuel wildfires, like the York Fire—the state's largest fire in 2023.
Additionally, winds play a key role in spreading wildfires.Forecasters expect fewer strong offshore winds, partly due to El Nino.However, sudden weather changes could still lead to major fires.Dry lightning, unexpected heat or rapid shifts in rainfall can turn a mild fire season into a severe one.
Within this long-term change, research suggests that burned areas in California could grow by 50% from 2031 to 2050 due to climate change.While some years may see fewer fires, overall, rising temperatures and drier conditions are making wildfires more common.
5.What does the underlined word“delayed” in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Referred to. B.Sped up.
C.Put off. D.Longed for.
6.What can we know from paragraph 2?
A.Forest fires always hit California in early May.
B.The wet season is likely to last for a short time.
C.It has been years since California saw heavy rain.
D.California expects a late start to the wildfire season.
7.Why does the author mention the York Fire in 2023?
A.To remind us to stop human error.
B.To show the danger of the dry grass.
C.To explain why it hardly rains in the desert.
D.To sound the alarm about global warming.
8.What does research suggest about California wildfires?
A.Their likelihood will largely increase.
B.They will probably drop by 50% in 2031.
C.It takes time to put them under control.
D.They are mainly caused by human activities.
