(这家餐厅有四位年轻店主，其中两人在厨房工作，两人在餐厅大堂服务)”可知，负责该餐厅厨房的是四位年轻老板中的两位。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Moments部分“Its themed menu takes guests on a journey across the Iberian Peninsula following the route of the “La Vuelta” cycling race (它的主题菜单沿着La Vuelta自行车赛路线，带食客开启一场穿越伊比利亚半岛的美食之旅)”可知，这家餐厅菜单的特别之处是以自行车赛路线为蓝本设计。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ola Martin Berasategui部分“Lying alongside the beautiful river on the first floor of the Tayko Hotel (位于Tayko酒店一楼，紧邻秀美的河流)”可知，Ola Martin Berasategui这家餐厅可以欣赏美丽的河景。 B For the creatively minded, snow represents a large blank canvas (空白画布) for art. But often, it’s limited to snowmen or other snow statues. Simon Beck had a different idea, and over the course of a decade he has carved a path for himself in the snow art world. He creates large land art by walking across soccer-field-sized areas covered in untouched snow. Combined with light and shadow, his artistic designs can only be fully appreciated when viewed from above. Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist, thanks to his decision late in life to pursue his hobby. “It started just as a joke one day really,” Beck explained. “After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to seek pleasure…” “I really had no idea how good it would look when I made that first drawing, but it really went beyond my expectation,” he said of his first ever creation that he looked down on from a ski lift. To create this work, Beck stepped his way through the snow using only snowshoes and a ski pole for measurement with nothing else but the image of a design idea in his head. It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. But as his designs developed and became more complex, Beck said he began to start drawing them on paper first. Beck’s paintings have become a huge hit since his work was first shared. “Most of the time I had been doing failed careers, and people around me are asking what’s the quickest way of getting rid of this person,” Beck said. “And for the first time, I felt people actually wanted me. I felt like a more valued member of society.” 4. Where does Simon Beck create art? A. On maps. B. On snow fields. C. On canvas. D. On soccer fields. 5. Why did Beck create his first drawing? A. To have fun. B. To prove his talent. C. To entertain the skiers. D. To develop a new hobby. 6. What contributed to Beck’s art creation? A. His passion for skiing. B. His competitive nature. C. His dream to be an artist. D. His experience of making maps. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. The Fun of Making Snow Statues B. How to Use a Ski Lift for Art C. From Nobody to a Snow Artist D. Why Did Beck’s Careers Succeed 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Simon Beck在雪地创作大型地景艺术的故事，介绍了他的创作方式、起源以及这份艺术带给他的价值感。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“He creates large land art by walking across soccer-field-sized areas covered in untouched snow. (他在大片未经踩踏的雪地上行走，创作大型地景艺术。)”可知，Simon Beck在雪地进行艺术创作。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to seek pleasure (有一天滑完雪，我决定在雪地上作画来寻乐)”可知，他创作第一幅雪地画作的初衷是为了获得乐趣。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist (59岁的Beck，曾经是地图绘制员，后来成为雪地艺术家)”以及第五段“It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. (得益于之前的工作经历，这件事对他来说一点不难。)”可知，制图的过往经验为他的雪地艺术创作打下了基础并提供了帮助。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Most of the time I had been doing failed careers...I felt like a more valued member of society. (我大部分时间都在经历失败的职业生涯……我第一次觉得自己是一个更有价值的社会成员。)”以及通读全文可知，本文讲述了Simon Beck从一个事业失败、不被重视的普通人蜕变成一位广受欢迎的雪地艺术家的故事，选项C“From Nobody to a Snow Artist (从无名之辈到雪地艺术家)”最适合作为文章标题。 C What’s the purpose of your study? It’s the question many basic-science researchers fear. And it’s the question that Carly Anne York received 10 years ago from a volunteer. At that time, York was a Ph.D. student studying squid (鱿鱼). When asked why money should be spent on what the volunteer called “silly science,” York could only respond by stressing the essential value of knowledge. Today, York, an animal physiologist, still doesn’t know how her doctoral research can directly benefit humankind. But after a decade of studying how animals interact with their environments, York has come to realize that the focus on immediate applications is not the goal of basic science. Rather, it seeks to deeply understand natural events. That doesn’t mean the research is worthless. As York details in her new book, The Salmon Cannon and the Levitating Frog, projects that could be considered silly or useless can lead to scientific advances that better our lives. Take the study of sea fireflies. The tiny creature’s glow (发光) had puzzled scientists for decades. Researchers knew that something produced the shine, but many avoided studying it because it was considered challenging and probably useless to humans. That was until Japanese chemist Osamu Shimomura found it in 1956. Based on this work, Shimomura and his team did further research on jellyfish, and identified two of the proteins (蛋白质) responsible for its glow, which transformed biological research and medicine. For instance, doctors now use the proteins to better see and avoid nerves (神经) during surgery, as well as to track the spread of cancer cells in the body. The discovery earned Shimomura the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry. Skillfully using her wisdom, York reminds us in her book that it’s nearly impossible for a science project to follow a direct path that results in an immediately applicable outcome. This book is a timely reminder especially when the U.S. government cuts science funding today. “I am also appreciative of the scientists who built the path to advance basic research,” York writes. “I hope that after reading this book you will be as well?” 8. What can we infer from the question in the first paragraph? A. The value of York’s work was doubted. B. Much money was wasted on York’s study. C. Researchers feared the failure of their work. D. Most research work lacked specific purposes 9. What is the goal of basic science according to York? A. To have immediate applications. B. To create life-changing inventions. C. To understand the natural world. D. To build human-nature relationship. 10. Which of the following best describes the study of sea fireflies? A. Costly and worthless. B. Important but fruitless. C. Practical but outdated. D. Inspiring and rewarding 11. What would York probably suggest about basic-science research? A. Promoting the outcome. B. Shortening the process. C. Supporting the funding. D. Improving the application. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要围绕基础科学研究展开，通过讲述Carly Anne York的研究经历以及海萤研究的例子，探讨了基础科学研究的价值，强调基础科学研究虽不一定有立竿见影的应用成果，但对人类生活有着重要意义，同时呼吁支持基础科学研究的资金投入。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“When asked why money should be spent on what the volunteer called “silly science,” York could only respond by stressing the essential value of knowledge. (当被问及为什么要把钱花在这位志愿者所说的“愚蠢的科学”上时，York只能强调知识的根本价值作为回应。)”可知，志愿者认为York研究的是“愚蠢的科学”，质疑为什么要在这上面花钱，由此可推断出York工作的价值受到了质疑。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But after a decade of studying how animals interact with their environments, York has come to realize that the focus on immediate applications is not the goal of basic science. Rather, it seeks to deeply understand natural events. (但在花了十年时间研究动物如何与环境互动之后，York开始意识到，关注即时应用并非基础科学的目标。相反，基础科学旨在深入理解自然现象。)”可知，York认为基础科学的目的是深入了解自然事件，即了解自然世界。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Take the study of sea fireflies. The tiny creature’s glow (发光) had puzzled scientists for decades. Researchers knew that something produced the shine, but many avoided studying it because it was considered challenging and probably useless to humans. That was until Japanese chemist Osamu Shimomura found it in 1956. Based on this work, Shimomura and his team did further research on jellyfish, and identified two of the proteins (蛋白质) responsible for its glow, which transformed biological research and medicine. For instance, doctors now use the proteins to better see and avoid nerves (神经) during surgery, as well as to track the spread of cancer cells in the body. The discovery earned Shimomura the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry. (以对海萤的研究为例。这种微小生物的发光现象几十年来一直困扰着科学家。研究人员知道有某种物质产生了这种光亮，但许多人都避免研究它，因为这被认为具有挑战性，而且可能对人类无用。直到1956年日本化学家下村修发现了它。基于这项工作，下村修和他的团队对水母进行了进一步研究，并确定了两种导致其发光的蛋白质，这彻底改变了生物学研究和医学。例如，医生现在利用这些蛋白质在手术中更好地观察并避开神经，同时追踪癌细胞在体内的扩散。这一发现为下村修赢得了2008年诺贝尔化学奖。)”可知，起初该研究被认为具有挑战性且可能对人类无用，但后来基于此研究，科学家们有了重要发现，这些发现改变了生物研究和医学，相关研究者还获得了诺贝尔奖。由此可推知，对海萤的研究是富有启发性且有回报的。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This book is a timely reminder especially when the U.S. government cuts science funding today. “I am also appreciative of the scientists who built the path to advance basic research,” York writes. “I hope that after reading this book you will be as well?” (这本书是一个及时的提醒，尤其是在如今美国政府削减科学资金的情况下。“我也感激那些为推动基础研究开辟道路的科学家们，” 约克写道。“我希望读完这本书后，你也会如此？”)”可推知，York可能会建议支持基础科学研究的资金投入。故选C项。 D Flaming Mountain is in China’s Xinjiang. In summer, the surface temperature there can be as high as 70℃. The burning heat makes the area extremely dry and desolate all year round. The red rock mountains look like fireballs under the hot sun, so its name comes into being. Flaming Mountain is located at the low point of the Turpan Basin (盆地). The hot air in the basin can’t easily disappear. As a result, it becomes one of the hottest places in China. There is neither grass nor birds or other animals there. Flaming Mountain is a famous tourist attraction with its special natural conditions and rich cultural heritage. It also enjoys great renown thanks to the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. However, there are many valleys hiding behind the rock mountains. The natural conditions of them are quite different. The most famous one is Grape Valley, which is known for producing the best grapes across the country. Grape Valley is 8 kilometres long and 500 metres wide. Blessed with mild climate and enough water, it forms a sharp contrast to the barren Flaming Mountain. On either side of the valley are thick trees of different kinds. Almost every family here grows grapes. Grapes are sent to shade houses after being picked. There are many holes in the walls of the shade houses which not only let the wind blow in but also help avoid direct sunlight on grapes. It takes just 40 days for the fresh grapes to be dried by the hot air. Here a modern grape wine factory has been built. White grape wine produced here is very popular with both Chinese and foreign guests. Deep inside the valley a grape park was built. After experiencing the heat of Flaming Mountain, visitors can take a rest here to enjoy the peaceful natural environment. While tasting sweet fresh local grapes along the quiet paths, they can feel the attractive local lifestyle deeply and appreciate its unique charm. 12. What causes Flaming Mountain’s extreme heat? A. Its red rock cover. B. Its basin position. C. Its lack of plants. D. Its strong sunlight. 13. What does the underlined word “renown” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Reality. B. Reputation. C. Region. D. Resource. 14. Why are holes designed in shade house walls? A. To make the wind blow out quickly. B. To increase direct sunlight on grapes. C. To allow grapes to be picked easily. D. To create proper drying conditions. 15. What does the valley strongly reflect? A. Culture and scenery mixed. B. Modern tourism fashion. C. Growing and drying skills. D. Special wine production. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了新疆吐鲁番的火焰山，这里酷热干旱，因《西游记》闻名；山后的葡萄沟气候宜人，盛产葡萄，兼具自然风光与特色人文。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Flaming Mountain is located at the low point of the Turpan Basin (盆地). The hot air in the basin can’t easily disappear. (火焰山地处吐鲁番盆地低处，盆地里的热空气不容易散去。)”可知，盆地的地理位置造成了火焰山的极端高温。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Flaming Mountain is a famous tourist attraction with its special natural conditions and rich cultural heritage. It also enjoys great renown thanks to the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. (火焰山凭借独特自然条件和丰富文化遗产成为著名景点，也因古典名著《西游记》而享有很高renown。)”可知，句中also提示前后语义并列，前面提到famous，再结合常识，《西游记》让火焰山名气大增，由此可知，renown是指名声、声誉，和reputation意义相近。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There are many holes in the walls of the shade houses which not only let the wind blow in but also help avoid direct sunlight on grapes. It takes just 40 days for the fresh grapes to be dried by the hot air. (荫房的墙上有很多孔洞，既能通风，又避免阳光直射葡萄，新鲜葡萄被热空气风干只需40天)”可知，设计这些洞是为了通风和避光，从而利用热空气将葡萄风干，即创造合适的干燥条件。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“enjoy the peaceful natural environment. While tasting sweet fresh local grapes...feel the attractive local lifestyle deeply and appreciate its unique charm. (享受宁静的自然环境。一边品尝香甜鲜美的本地葡萄……一边深切感受迷人的当地风土人情，领略它独有的魅力)”可知，游客在葡萄沟既能欣赏自然风光，又能体验当地的生活方式和独特魅力，这强烈反映了文化与风景的完美融合。 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。 Artificial intelligence (AI) can really help with first-aid training in high schools.

Recognized 39. Traditionally 40. the 41. to experience 42. has received 43. were born 44. who 45. ensuring 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了秦腔作为一种可追溯至明朝的中国传统艺术形式，近年来通过线上和线下平台重新受到欢迎。 【36题详解】 考查介词。句意：作为一种可以追溯到明朝的中国传统艺术形式，秦腔最近通过线上和线下平台重新受到欢迎。“date back to”是固定搭配，意为“追溯到”。故填to。 【37题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：甘肃省兰州市的安万秦腔剧团的演出吸引了成千上万的粉丝，证明了它跨越时代的永恒魅力。“tens of thousands of”（成千上万的）后接可数名词复数形式，“fan”（粉丝）为可数名词。故填fans。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：秦腔在 2006 年被认定为国家级非物质文化遗产，其特点是节奏强烈，用陕西方言进行高音演唱。“recognize”与“Qinqiang Opera”之间是被动关系，即 “秦腔被认定为……”，所以用过去分词形式作状语，首字母大写，故填Recognized。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：传统上，它由鼓和钹等打击乐器伴奏，通过鲜艳的服装和夸张的妆容呈现历史和传奇故事。“accompanied”是动词，需要用副词来修饰，“traditional”是形容词，其副词形式为“traditionally”，首字母大写，故填Traditionally。 【40题详解】 考查冠词。句意：虽然秦腔曾经主要在年长观众中流行，但现在这种艺术形式吸引了更年轻的爱好者。此处“art form” 特指上文提到的“Qinqiang Opera”（秦腔）这一艺术形式，所以要用定冠词the来表示特指。故填the。 【41题详解】 考查的非谓语动词。句意：一位姓李的父亲带着他五年级的儿子来体验这一文化瑰宝，他说：“我想让他了解我们的文化遗产。”动词不定式作目的状语。故填to experience。 【42题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：到目前为止，他们 1 月 8 日的演出在快手上已经获得了超过 200 万的浏览量。根据时间状语 “So far”（到目前为止），常与现在完成时连用，现在完成时的结构是 “have/has + 过去分词”，主语“their January 8 performance”是第三人称单数，所以助动词用 has，“receive”的过去分词是“received”。故填has received。 【43题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：社交媒体统计数据显示，他们 120 万粉丝中有 30 万是 90 后。“be born” 表示 “出生”，是固定用法，且“出生” 这个动作发生在过去，主语“300,000 of their 1.2 million followers” 是复数，所以用一般过去时的被动语态were born。故填were born。 【44题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：剧团团长安万对看到越来越多的年轻人对秦腔感兴趣感到很高兴。“An Wan” 是先行词，“9 is the troupe leader” 是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中作主语，指人，所以用关系代词who。故填who。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这种文化复兴展示了传统艺术如何在适应现代平台的同时保持其本质，确保它们在数字时代的延续。“This cultural revival”和“ensure”之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词形式表示自然而然的结果。故填ensuring。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是校英语公众号Young Voice的编辑李华，公众号近期将举办“校园意外事故急救知识英语海报设计”活动，请你为该公众号撰写一则征稿启事。内容包括： （1）征稿目的和作品要求； （2）提交方式及奖励说明。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Call for First Aid Poster Designs __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Young Voice 【答案】参考答案： Call for First Aid Poster Designs To enhance campus safety awareness, our school is launching an English poster campaign on first aid for common school accidents.

The banks were lined with old trees. We waded (涉水) through the cold water, our backpacks balanced on our heads. We set up camp on a sandy flat beside a pool. What a swimming hole! My brother and I swam, diving and playing in the clear water. We hiked upstream, against little rapids. Suddenly we heard a roaring sound, and as we came around a bend, we saw what was causing it. A huge waterfall! It rose high above us. “Wow!” I said. “Let’s climb it!” “No way,” said Dad. “End of the road.” We turned back but I couldn’t stop thinking about the waterfall and how much I’d like to climb it. Later, lying in my bag, I thought of the waterfall, wondering what was on the top...then finally I fell asleep. The sun was hot as a bonfire. We cut leaves as wide as elephants’ ears, and tied them on our heads to keep us cool. Then we waded against the little rapids deep into the stream. I was the first one to the waterfall. “Let’s go up. I think there must be something unique out there,” I said. My brother smiled. “If you go, I will,” he said. I found a way alongside the falls, and then we climbed like mountain goats. Mom shouted, “Be careful!” And we inched our way up and up. Sometimes rocks were unstable, but we clung (粘住) like glue. We had to. The waterfall roared by our ears. “I’m scared,” said my brother. I said, “Just don’t look down.” Near the top, a tree grew out of the rock. It was just what we needed. When we stood at the top, we clapped our hands and shouted down, “Hey Mom, Dad! It’s like a whole other world up here! Come on up! You can do it!” And I did a little dance. 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。 Mom looked at Dad and Dad looked at Mom. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “We did it!” Mom shouted, breathing hard. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考答案： Mom looked at Dad and Dad looked at Mom. Then Mom started climbing, and Dad followed — I couldn’t believe my eyes! I lay on my stomach and shouted directions. “No, not that ledge — try the one up to your right!” I never felt more anxious — seeing my parents clinging to that smooth rock — or more proud, either. Then I heard a shout and my heart jumped into my mouth. But it was a shout of victory! My parents pulled themselves up, up, and over the top. “We did it!” Mom shouted, breathing hard. “You did it!” I also shouted excitedly. “Dad, I thought you said it couldn’t be done!” “It can’t,” he said. Together we burst out laughing. Then after a short rest, we continued upstream. Along the way we saw special scenery up there, which gave us great joy and left us an unforgettable impression. This experience made my heart feel big and wild, and I believe that success belongs to the brave. 【解析】 【导语】本文以一家人山间徒步、攀登瀑布为线索展开，讲述了作者和哥哥在山间营地发现一处大瀑布，勇敢沿岩壁登顶，随后呼喊父母上来一同挑战瀑布的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写父母对视之后，下定决心尝试攀登瀑布。作者趴在山顶为他们指引路线，紧张又骄傲地看着他们紧紧抓牢岩石，一点点向上攀爬，最终成功登上瀑布顶端。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写登顶后一家人开怀大笑，短暂休整后继续往上游探索，欣赏山顶独有的风光。这次攀爬经历让作者内心充满力量，感悟到成功属于勇敢的人。 2. 续写线索： 父母对视下定决心→作者在山顶指引路线→父母艰难向上攀登→成功登顶→一家人欢笑休整，继续前行→感悟勇敢方能收获成功 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①攀爬：climb/scale/mount ②紧紧抓住：cling to/hold fast to ③呼喊：shout/yell/exclaim 情绪类 ①焦虑不安的：anxious/tense/uneasy ②自豪的：proud/triumphant 【点睛】【高分句型1】Along the way we saw special scenery up there, which gave us great joy and left us an unforgettable impression.

Simon Beck had a different idea, and over the course of a decade he has carved a path for himself in the snow art world. He creates large land art by walking across soccer-field-sized areas covered in untouched snow. Combined with light and shadow, his artistic designs can only be fully appreciated when viewed from above. Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist, thanks to his decision late in life to pursue his hobby. “It started just as a joke one day really,” Beck explained. “After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to seek pleasure…” “I really had no idea how good it would look when I made that first drawing, but it really went beyond my expectation,” he said of his first ever creation that he looked down on from a ski lift. To create this work, Beck stepped his way through the snow using only snowshoes and a ski pole for measurement with nothing else but the image of a design idea in his head. It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. But as his designs developed and became more complex, Beck said he began to start drawing them on paper first. Beck’s paintings have become a huge hit since his work was first shared. “Most of the time I had been doing failed careers, and people around me are asking what’s the quickest way of getting rid of this person,” Beck said. “And for the first time, I felt people actually wanted me. I felt like a more valued member of society.” 4. Where does Simon Beck create art? A. On maps. B. On snow fields. C. On canvas. D. On soccer fields. 5. Why did Beck create his first drawing? A. To have fun. B. To prove his talent. C. To entertain the skiers. D. To develop a new hobby. 6. What contributed to Beck’s art creation? A. His passion for skiing. B. His competitive nature. C. His dream to be an artist. D. His experience of making maps. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. The Fun of Making Snow Statues B. How to Use a Ski Lift for Art C. From Nobody to a Snow Artist D. Why Did Beck’s Careers Succeed C What’s the purpose of your study? It’s the question many basic-science researchers fear. And it’s the question that Carly Anne York received 10 years ago from a volunteer. At that time, York was a Ph.D. student studying squid (鱿鱼). When asked why money should be spent on what the volunteer called “silly science,” York could only respond by stressing the essential value of knowledge. Today, York, an animal physiologist, still doesn’t know how her doctoral research can directly benefit humankind. But after a decade of studying how animals interact with their environments, York has come to realize that the focus on immediate applications is not the goal of basic science. Rather, it seeks to deeply understand natural events. That doesn’t mean the research is worthless. As York details in her new book, The Salmon Cannon and the Levitating Frog, projects that could be considered silly or useless can lead to scientific advances that better our lives. Take the study of sea fireflies. The tiny creature’s glow (发光) had puzzled scientists for decades. Researchers knew that something produced the shine, but many avoided studying it because it was considered challenging and probably useless to humans. That was until Japanese chemist Osamu Shimomura found it in 1956. Based on this work, Shimomura and his team did further research on jellyfish, and identified two of the proteins (蛋白质) responsible for its glow, which transformed biological research and medicine. For instance, doctors now use the proteins to better see and avoid nerves (神经) during surgery, as well as to track the spread of cancer cells in the body. The discovery earned Shimomura the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry. Skillfully using her wisdom, York reminds us in her book that it’s nearly impossible for a science project to follow a direct path that results in an immediately applicable outcome. This book is a timely reminder especially when the U.S. government cuts science funding today. “I am also appreciative of the scientists who built the path to advance basic research,” York writes. “I hope that after reading this book you will be as well?” 8. What can we infer from the question in the first paragraph? A. The value of York’s work was doubted. B. Much money was wasted on York’s study. C. Researchers feared the failure of their work. D. Most research work lacked specific purposes 9. What is the goal of basic science according to York? A. To have immediate applications. B. To create life-changing inventions. C. To understand the natural world. D. To build human-nature relationship. 10. Which of the following best describes the study of sea fireflies? A. Costly and worthless. B. Important but fruitless. C. Practical but outdated. D. Inspiring and rewarding 11. What would York probably suggest about basic-science research? A. Promoting the outcome. B. Shortening the process. C. Supporting the funding. D. Improving the application. D Flaming Mountain is in China’s Xinjiang. In summer, the surface temperature there can be as high as 70℃. The burning heat makes the area extremely dry and desolate all year round. The red rock mountains look like fireballs under the hot sun, so its name comes into being. Flaming Mountain is located at the low point of the Turpan Basin (盆地). The hot air in the basin can’t easily disappear. As a result, it becomes one of the hottest places in China. There is neither grass nor birds or other animals there. Flaming Mountain is a famous tourist attraction with its special natural conditions and rich cultural heritage. It also enjoys great renown thanks to the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. However, there are many valleys hiding behind the rock mountains. The natural conditions of them are quite different. The most famous one is Grape Valley, which is known for producing the best grapes across the country. Grape Valley is 8 kilometres long and 500 metres wide. Blessed with mild climate and enough water, it forms a sharp contrast to the barren Flaming Mountain. On either side of the valley are thick trees of different kinds. Almost every family here grows grapes. Grapes are sent to shade houses after being picked. There are many holes in the walls of the shade houses which not only let the wind blow in but also help avoid direct sunlight on grapes. It takes just 40 days for the fresh grapes to be dried by the hot air. Here a modern grape wine factory has been built. White grape wine produced here is very popular with both Chinese and foreign guests. Deep inside the valley a grape park was built. After experiencing the heat of Flaming Mountain, visitors can take a rest here to enjoy the peaceful natural environment.

The banks were lined with old trees. We waded (涉水) through the cold water, our backpacks balanced on our heads. We set up camp on a sandy flat beside a pool. What a swimming hole! My brother and I swam, diving and playing in the clear water. We hiked upstream, against little rapids. Suddenly we heard a roaring sound, and as we came around a bend, we saw what was causing it. A huge waterfall! It rose high above us. “Wow!” I said. “Let’s climb it!” “No way,” said Dad. “End of the road.” We turned back but I couldn’t stop thinking about the waterfall and how much I’d like to climb it. Later, lying in my bag, I thought of the waterfall, wondering what was on the top...then finally I fell asleep. The sun was hot as a bonfire. We cut leaves as wide as elephants’ ears, and tied them on our heads to keep us cool. Then we waded against the little rapids deep into the stream. I was the first one to the waterfall. “Let’s go up. I think there must be something unique out there,” I said. My brother smiled. “If you go, I will,” he said. I found a way alongside the falls, and then we climbed like mountain goats. Mom shouted, “Be careful!” And we inched our way up and up. Sometimes rocks were unstable, but we clung (粘住) like glue. We had to. The waterfall roared by our ears. “I’m scared,” said my brother. I said, “Just don’t look down.” Near the top, a tree grew out of the rock. It was just what we needed. When we stood at the top, we clapped our hands and shouted down, “Hey Mom, Dad! It’s like a whole other world up here! Come on up! You can do it!” And I did a little dance. 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。 Mom looked at Dad and Dad looked at Mom. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “We did it!” Mom shouted, breathing hard. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
