Maggie Doyne is caring for and educating helpless children and orphans in rural Nepal. What started with a plot of land that she purchased with her babysitting money has become a global model for poverty relief and development through her nonprofit, BlinkNow Foundation.
After high school, Doyne began her work after meeting a young girl in Surkhet, Nepal, whose life was ruined during the country’s decades-long civil conflict. Today, Doyne cares for 93 children, addressing their immediate needs and supporting them for long-term growth and self-sufficiency.
The organization also has a separate home for at-risk girls who have been victims of harm, human trafficking (贩卖) and violence, a food and farming program that trains women and farmers, and a full-service medical clinic. Doyne and a team of 175 caregivers, teachers, and professionals work together to offer comprehensive services that address the roots of poverty.
Her Kopila Valley School, once a small “bamboo shack (棚屋)”, has now served 1,000 students with state-of-the-art facilities, modern technology, and diverse course offerings. Students participate in gardening, farming, and conservation classes and are provided healthy meals to address poor nutrition. There is a daycare, as well as a readiness program called “Futures” to launch students toward college and job training programs.
At a speaking engagement in Los Angeles, Doyne connected with a filmmaker who shared a passion for humanitarian causes and storytelling. He started documenting Doyne’s work and life story. And the two began a journey together, professionally and personally. Now married, they raise their children in Nepal among their 93 siblings (兄弟姊妹).
Hope and action are ideas that Doyne made a reality two decades ago. And today, her message remains: “Keep doing what you can, no matter where you are. Keep showing up, keep loving, and keep going with your acts of kindness. It all matters.”
24. Where did Doyne’s early fund for charity land come from?
A. Donations from a filmmaker. B. Income from school students.
C. Earnings from her former job. D. Support from medical workers.
25. What inspired Doyne to start charity work in Nepal?
A. A speech about global poverty relief. B. An encounter with a girl in Surkhet.
C. A bamboo school built by local farmers. D. A medical clinic for homeless children.
26. What is the “Futures” program designed for?
A. Training local women in farming skills. B. Offering medical treatment for poor girls.
C. Building modern classrooms for rural children. D. Preparing teenagers for further study and career.
27. Which of the following can best describe Doyne’s approach to poverty relief?
A. Systematic and sustainable. B. All-sided and imaginary.
C. Personalized and traditional. D. Accidental and immoral.
C
Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.
Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result).
But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital.
The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise.
The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,” Chowdhury said.
28. What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize?
A. Its service level.
B. Its design philosophy.
C. Its long history.
D. Its hard construction.
29. How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater?
A. It collects rainwater for hospital use.
B. It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation.
C. It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking.
D. It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries.
30. What message does Chowdhury mainly convey?
A. Be in awe of nature.
B. Man can overcome nature.
C. Be at one with nature.
D. Inspiration springs from nature.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh
B. A Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change
C. A Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World
D. A Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment
D
When fly larvae (幼虫) attack cowpea plants, the plants release chemicals from their roots into the soil. These chemicals sustain a helpful community of microbes (微生物). In turn, those microbes stimulate the plants to release a smell that attracts parasitoid wasps (寄生蜂) — natural enemies of the flies, researchers from Zhejiang University, China, reported in Cell Reports recently.
The American serpentine leafminer, a fly native to the southeastern United States, now threatens crops in Asia, Europe and Canada. Its larvae tunnel through leaves, destroying plants like cowpeas, eggplants and beans. Without control measures, they can ruin entire fields. One effective method is to bring in parasitoid wasps, which can consume the young flies.
Some plants release chemical signals to call for help when being eaten. Such above-ground defenses are thought to be short-lived, dissipating once the insect stops feeding. But previous studies suggest that plants can shape which microbes live around their roots. The researchers wondered if soil microbes could help plants achieve longer-lasting protection.
In the experiment, they grew cowpea plants and allowed fly larvae to feed on them. Then they removed the original plants and used the same soil to grow new cowpeas. The results were striking: the new plants attracted far more wasps than those growing in healthy soil with no insect attack history. Further analysis showed that the larvae had caused the plants to release root chemicals that fed certain bacteria. These bacteria then directed new cowpeas to release a smell that draws in wasps, even when no pests were present. This result points towards a durable protection, showing that root microbes keep the memory of an attack, ensuring that defensive mechanisms don’t have to be rebuilt every time.
Michelle Afkhami, an American ecologist not involved in the study, noted that soil microbes can maintain what would normally be short-lived protection for the next generation. It remains unclear how long this microbial protection lasts or whether other plants use similar strategies. But uncovering how the protection works could help researchers use wasps as a biological control tool.
32. What is cowpea plants’ initial reaction when fly larvae attack them?
A. They release a smell to attract wasps. B. They produce chemicals from their roots.
C. They send out signals through their leaves. D. They support the community of soil microbes.
33. What does the underlined word “dissipating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Generating. B. Strengthening. C. Disappearing. D. Spreading.
34. What can be concluded from the experiment result?
A. Healthy soil contains more microbes. B. Fly larvae feed on bacteria in the soil.
C. New cowpeas can hardly resist pests. D. Soil defense still works after pest attacks.
35. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To warn farmers against leafminer damage. B. To compare different pest control methods.
C. To introduce a fly that harms crops worldwide. D. To explain how plants use soil microbes for help.
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。
Heart disease has long been pictured as a problem of the old, the overweight and the inactive. ___36___ Actually, research shows that quite a few heart attack patients have none of the traditional risk factors.
Linda Marsh, a 60-year-old medical journalist, learned this lesson the hard way. She watched her diet, exercised regularly, and had healthy blood pressure. Since cancer had claimed several of her relatives, she was proactive about screening for it. ___37___ When a strange tightness in her chest came and went over a weekend, she talked herself into believing it was nothing more than indigestion. Only a blood test revealed the truth that several of her heart’s blood vessels were almost completely blocked.
Doctors could find nothing in her lifestyle to explain the attack. ___38___ Her father underwent heart surgery in his 70s, and there was, she later discovered, more heart disease on her mother’s side of the family. That is, genes can quietly raise the odds even when a lifestyle looks perfect — a risk no scan predicts and no lifestyle erases, but one the body may signal in subtle ways.
___39___ In women especially, red flags, like discomfort in the jaw, back or arms, shortness of breath, or a cold sweat, are often easily missed. Because such symptoms appear and disappear, they are frequently mistaken for minor complaints and brushed aside.
None of this, however, should suggest that healthy habits are pointless. They lower the risk of heart disease and speed recovery after it. ___40___ The wisest response to a suspicious symptom, as Marsh now tells her readers, is therefore not to reason it away but to get checked immediately.
A. What they cannot do is promise total protection.
B. That belief, however, is dangerously incomplete.
C. It turned out that the answer lay in her family history.
D. By contrast, heart disease simply never crossed her mind.
E. She drove herself to the hospital without telling her family.
F. Thanks to modern medicine, heart attacks today are far less dangerous.
G. Despite inborn factors, knowing the warning signs can save people’s lives.

Scientists believe such behavior ____47____ curiosity — a specific attempt to ____48____ the species divide. During those profound minutes, the whale felt like a conscious being choosing to ____49____. This common attentiveness, especially that moment of silent eye contact, transformed the encounter into a(n) _____50_____ beyond words, changing my understanding of interspecies ____51____.
To me, the whale’s graceful ____52____ felt like a silent prayer for coexistence, ____53____ me that we are part of nature.

67. 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。
Leo had always been an active teenager who loved outdoor adventures (冒险). On a sunny Saturday morning in October, the weather was perfect for a hike, so he decided to explore Oak Hill Forest Park, a famous national park near his hometown.
Before Leo walked out of the door, his father stopped him and gave him a serious warning: “Leo, remember to stay on the marked tourist paths. The forest is extremely huge and it is easy to get lost if you go deep.”
Leo nodded quickly, giving his father a reassuring (使人放心的) smile, but in his heart, he did not take the advice seriously at all. He believed he was experienced and strong enough to solve any unexpected situation.
The autumn scenery in the park was breathtaking. As Leo hiked along the main path, he felt a sense of boredom. He wanted a real adventure. Suddenly, he noticed a narrow, overgrown dirt path leading away from the main path into the deeper woods. “This must be a secret shortcut to the top of the mountain,” he thought excitedly. Forgetting his father’s words, he stepped onto the quiet, wild path, eager to explore the unknown.
Two hours passed quickly as he walked deeper and deeper. Gradually, the tall pine trees grew much thicker, completely blocking out the warm autumn sunlight. The temperature began to drop rapidly. It was then that Leo realized he could no longer find the path he had been following. He looked around, but every direction seemed exactly the same. Alarm started to wash over him. He quickly pulled out his smartphone, but to make things worse, the screen flashed and went black — the battery was dead.
With no one in sight, despair (绝望) flooded over Leo. He sat down under a tree, shaking with both cold and fear, deeply regretting his decision. Just as he was about to lose hope, a friendly voice called out, “Is anyone there?” It was a forest ranger (护林员).
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。
Hearing that, Leo shouted at the top of his voice.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
An hour later, Leo’s parents arrived at the ranger station.

Maggie Doyne is caring for and educating helpless children and orphans in rural Nepal. What started with a plot of land that she purchased with her babysitting money has become a global model for poverty relief and development through her nonprofit, BlinkNow Foundation.
After high school, Doyne began her work after meeting a young girl in Surkhet, Nepal, whose life was ruined during the country’s decades-long civil conflict. Today, Doyne cares for 93 children, addressing their immediate needs and supporting them for long-term growth and self-sufficiency.
The organization also has a separate home for at-risk girls who have been victims of harm, human trafficking (贩卖) and violence, a food and farming program that trains women and farmers, and a full-service medical clinic. Doyne and a team of 175 caregivers, teachers, and professionals work together to offer comprehensive services that address the roots of poverty.
Her Kopila Valley School, once a small “bamboo shack (棚屋)”, has now served 1,000 students with state-of-the-art facilities, modern technology, and diverse course offerings. Students participate in gardening, farming, and conservation classes and are provided healthy meals to address poor nutrition. There is a daycare, as well as a readiness program called “Futures” to launch students toward college and job training programs.
At a speaking engagement in Los Angeles, Doyne connected with a filmmaker who shared a passion for humanitarian causes and storytelling. He started documenting Doyne’s work and life story. And the two began a journey together, professionally and personally. Now married, they raise their children in Nepal among their 93 siblings (兄弟姊妹).
Hope and action are ideas that Doyne made a reality two decades ago. And today, her message remains: “Keep doing what you can, no matter where you are. Keep showing up, keep loving, and keep going with your acts of kindness. It all matters.”
24. Where did Doyne’s early fund for charity land come from?
A. Donations from a filmmaker. B. Income from school students.
C. Earnings from her former job. D. Support from medical workers.
25. What inspired Doyne to start charity work in Nepal?
A. A speech about global poverty relief. B. An encounter with a girl in Surkhet.
C. A bamboo school built by local farmers. D. A medical clinic for homeless children.
26. What is the “Futures” program designed for?
A. Training local women in farming skills. B. Offering medical treatment for poor girls.
C. Building modern classrooms for rural children. D. Preparing teenagers for further study and career.
27. Which of the following can best describe Doyne’s approach to poverty relief?

Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.
Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result).
But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital.
The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise.
The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,” Chowdhury said.
28. What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize?
A. Its service level.
B. Its design philosophy.
C. Its long history.
D. Its hard construction.
29. How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater?
A. It collects rainwater for hospital use.
B. It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation.
C. It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking.
D. It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries.
30. What message does Chowdhury mainly convey?
A. Be in awe of nature.
B. Man can overcome nature.
C. Be at one with nature.
D. Inspiration springs from nature.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh
B. A Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change
C. A Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World
D. A Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】

【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital. (这个排水渠收集现场的雨水,然后储存在水箱中,以便医院使用。)”可知,友谊医院收集雨水供医院使用。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,’ Chowdhury said. (‘我感到鼓舞的是,这可能会激励我们更多人投入其中,不是不顾资源和手段的限制,而正是因为这些限制,去致力于一种既关怀人类又关怀自然的建筑,共同应对我们今天在地球范围内面临的紧迫问题,’Chowdhury 说。)”可知,Chowdhury主要传达的是与自然和谐共处的理念。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是第一段“Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. (大多数医院都没有收集雨水的排水渠。这正是孟加拉国友谊医院(一家拥有80张床位的乡村社区医院)荣获2021年RIBA国际大奖这一重要建筑荣誉的诸多独特之处之一。)”以及第二段“Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. (友谊医院位于孟加拉国南部的沙姆纳加尔(Shyamnagar),其设计旨在与当地多水的环境融为一体——那里遍布养虾场,河流纵横交错。)”可知,本文主要介绍的是一家获奖医院如何与多水环境相适应,因此最佳标题是“一家获奖医院:融入水环境”。
D
When fly larvae (幼虫) attack cowpea plants, the plants release chemicals from their roots into the soil. These chemicals sustain a helpful community of microbes (微生物). In turn, those microbes stimulate the plants to release a smell that attracts parasitoid wasps (寄生蜂) — natural enemies of the flies, researchers from Zhejiang University, China, reported in Cell Reports recently.
The American serpentine leafminer, a fly native to the southeastern United States, now threatens crops in Asia, Europe and Canada. Its larvae tunnel through leaves, destroying plants like cowpeas, eggplants and beans. Without control measures, they can ruin entire fields. One effective method is to bring in parasitoid wasps, which can consume the young flies.
Some plants release chemical signals to call for help when being eaten. Such above-ground defenses are thought to be short-lived, dissipating once the insect stops feeding. But previous studies suggest that plants can shape which microbes live around their roots. The researchers wondered if soil microbes could help plants achieve longer-lasting protection.
In the experiment, they grew cowpea plants and allowed fly larvae to feed on them. Then they removed the original plants and used the same soil to grow new cowpeas. The results were striking: the new plants attracted far more wasps than those growing in healthy soil with no insect attack history. Further analysis showed that the larvae had caused the plants to release root chemicals that fed certain bacteria. These bacteria then directed new cowpeas to release a smell that draws in wasps, even when no pests were present. This result points towards a durable protection, showing that root microbes keep the memory of an attack, ensuring that defensive mechanisms don’t have to be rebuilt every time.
Michelle Afkhami, an American ecologist not involved in the study, noted that soil microbes can maintain what would normally be short-lived protection for the next generation. It remains unclear how long this microbial protection lasts or whether other plants use similar strategies. But uncovering how the protection works could help researchers use wasps as a biological control tool.
32. What is cowpea plants’ initial reaction when fly larvae attack them?
A. They release a smell to attract wasps. B. They produce chemicals from their roots.
C. They send out signals through their leaves. D. They support the community of soil microbes.
33. What does the underlined word “dissipating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Generating. B. Strengthening. C. Disappearing. D. Spreading.
34. What can be concluded from the experiment result?
A. Healthy soil contains more microbes. B. Fly larvae feed on bacteria in the soil.
C. New cowpeas can hardly resist pests. D. Soil defense still works after pest attacks.
35. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To warn farmers against leafminer damage. B. To compare different pest control methods.
C. To introduce a fly that harms crops worldwide. D. To explain how plants use soil microbes for help.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍一项研究,当豇豆受到蝇幼虫侵害时,会通过根系释放化学物质,借助土壤微生物实现长效防御,吸引寄生蜂来消灭害虫,这是植物独特的虫害防御机制。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When fly larvae(幼虫) attack cowpea plants, the plants release chemicals from their roots into the soil.(当蝇幼虫侵害豇豆植株时,植株会从根部向土壤释放化学物质)”可知,蝇幼虫袭击豇豆植株时,植株最初的反应是从根部产生化学物质。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Such above-ground defenses are thought to be short-lived, dissipating once the insect stops feeding.(这类地上防御被认为是短暂的,一旦昆虫停止取食就会dissipating)”可知,这类地上防御被认为是短暂的,昆虫停止取食后这种防御信号就会消失,short-lived表示短暂的,由此可推划线词含义为“消失”,与Disappearing意思相同。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The results were striking: the new plants attracted far more wasps than those growing in healthy soil with no insect attack history.(结果很惊人:新植株比生长在没有遭受虫害的健康土壤里的植株吸引更多寄生蜂)”可知,实验表明遭受过虫害之后,土壤的防御作用依旧有效。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,并根据第一段“When fly larvae (幼虫) attack cowpea plants, the plants release chemicals from their roots into the soil. These chemicals sustain a helpful community of microbes (微生物). In turn, those microbes stimulate the plants to release a smell that attracts parasitoid wasps (寄生蜂)(当蝇蛆攻击豇豆植株时,植株会从根部向土壤中释放化学物质。这些化学物质会维持一个有益的微生物群落。反过来,这些微生物会刺激植株释放一种气味,吸引寄生蜂)”可知,全文主要解释植物如何利用土壤微生物获得帮助、抵御害虫。
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。
Heart disease has long been pictured as a problem of the old, the overweight and the inactive. ___36___ Actually, research shows that quite a few heart attack patients have none of the traditional risk factors.
Linda Marsh, a 60-year-old medical journalist, learned this lesson the hard way. She watched her diet, exercised regularly, and had healthy blood pressure. Since cancer had claimed several of her relatives, she was proactive about screening for it. ___37___ When a strange tightness in her chest came and went over a weekend, she talked herself into believing it was nothing more than indigestion. Only a blood test revealed the truth that several of her heart’s blood vessels were almost completely blocked.
Doctors could find nothing in her lifestyle to explain the attack. ___38___ Her father underwent heart surgery in his 70s, and there was, she later discovered, more heart disease on her mother’s side of the family. That is, genes can quietly raise the odds even when a lifestyle looks perfect — a risk no scan predicts and no lifestyle erases, but one the body may signal in subtle ways.
___39___ In women especially, red flags, like discomfort in the jaw, back or arms, shortness of breath, or a cold sweat, are often easily missed. Because such symptoms appear and disappear, they are frequently mistaken for minor complaints and brushed aside.
None of this, however, should suggest that healthy habits are pointless. They lower the risk of heart disease and speed recovery after it. ___40___ The wisest response to a suspicious symptom, as Marsh now tells her readers, is therefore not to reason it away but to get checked immediately.
A. What they cannot do is promise total protection.
B. That belief, however, is dangerously incomplete.
C. It turned out that the answer lay in her family history.
D. By contrast, heart disease simply never crossed her mind.
E. She drove herself to the hospital without telling her family.
F. Thanks to modern medicine, heart attacks today are far less dangerous.
G. Despite inborn factors, knowing the warning signs can save people’s lives.
【答案】36. B 37. D 38. C 39. G 40. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了心脏病并非仅与不良生活习惯相关,遗传因素和易被忽视的症状同样危险,强调警惕身体信号并及时就医的重要性。
【36题详解】
上文“Heart disease has long been pictured as a problem of the old, the overweight and the inactive.(长期以来,心脏病一直被认为是老年人、超重者和缺乏运动者的问题)”说明人们对心脏病的传统认知。空处和前文为转折关系,引出这种认知的局限性。下文“Actually, research shows that quite a few heart attack patients have none of the traditional risk factors.(事实上,研究表明,相当多的心脏病发作患者没有传统的危险因素)”进一步说明传统认知的不足。所以B项“然而,这种认知是极其片面且危险的”符合语境。B项中的“That belief”与前文的传统认知相呼应。
【37题详解】
上文“Since cancer had claimed several of her relatives, she was proactive about screening for it.(由于癌症夺去了她几位亲人的生命,她很主动地进行癌症筛查)”说明Linda Marsh对癌症很警惕。空处和前文为对比关系,说明她对心脏病毫无防备。下文“When a strange tightness in her chest came and went over a weekend, she talked herself into believing it was nothing more than indigestion.(整个周末,她的胸口反复出现莫名的紧缩感,她说服自己相信那不过是消化不良)”进一步说明她未重视心脏问题。所以D项“相比之下,她根本没想到心脏病”符合语境。
【38题详解】
上文“Doctors could find nothing in her lifestyle to explain the attack.(医生从她的生活方式中找不到任何可以解释这次心脏病发作的原因)”说明生活方式不是病因。空处和前文为顺接关系,引出真正的病因。下文“Her father underwent heart surgery in his 70s, and there was, she later discovered, more heart disease on her mother’s side of the family.(她的父亲在70多岁时接受了心脏手术,后来她发现,她母亲那边的家族中有更多的心脏病)”具体说明家族病史。所以C项“事实证明,答案在于她的家族病史”符合语境。C项中的“family history”与下文内容相呼应。
【39题详解】
下文“In women especially, red flags, like discomfort in the jaw, back or arms, shortness of breath, or a cold sweat, are often easily missed.(尤其是在女性中,危险信号,如下颌、背部或手臂不适,呼吸急促或出冷汗,往往很容易被忽视)”说明心脏病症状易被忽略。空处和下文为顺接关系,说明了解这些症状的重要性。所以G项“尽管有先天因素,但了解警告信号可以挽救人们的生命”符合语境。G项中的“warning signs”与下文中的“red flags”相呼应。
【40题详解】
上文“None of this, however, should suggest that healthy habits are pointless. They lower the risk of heart disease and speed recovery after it.(然而,这些都不应表明健康的习惯毫无意义。它们降低心脏病风险并加速病后康复)”说明健康习惯的作用。空处和前文为转折关系,说明健康习惯的局限性。下文“The wisest response to a suspicious symptom, as Marsh now tells her readers, is therefore not to reason it away but to get checked immediately.(因此,正如Marsh现在告诉她的读者的那样,对可疑症状最明智的反应不是自我说服不当回事,而是立即去检查)”进一步说明仅靠健康习惯不够,还需警惕症状。所以A项“它们不能做的是保证完全的保护”符合语境。A项中的they指代前文“healthy habits”。

67. 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。
Leo had always been an active teenager who loved outdoor adventures (冒险). On a sunny Saturday morning in October, the weather was perfect for a hike, so he decided to explore Oak Hill Forest Park, a famous national park near his hometown.
Before Leo walked out of the door, his father stopped him and gave him a serious warning: “Leo, remember to stay on the marked tourist paths. The forest is extremely huge and it is easy to get lost if you go deep.”
Leo nodded quickly, giving his father a reassuring (使人放心的) smile, but in his heart, he did not take the advice seriously at all. He believed he was experienced and strong enough to solve any unexpected situation.
The autumn scenery in the park was breathtaking. As Leo hiked along the main path, he felt a sense of boredom. He wanted a real adventure. Suddenly, he noticed a narrow, overgrown dirt path leading away from the main path into the deeper woods. “This must be a secret shortcut to the top of the mountain,” he thought excitedly. Forgetting his father’s words, he stepped onto the quiet, wild path, eager to explore the unknown.
Two hours passed quickly as he walked deeper and deeper. Gradually, the tall pine trees grew much thicker, completely blocking out the warm autumn sunlight. The temperature began to drop rapidly. It was then that Leo realized he could no longer find the path he had been following. He looked around, but every direction seemed exactly the same. Alarm started to wash over him. He quickly pulled out his smartphone, but to make things worse, the screen flashed and went black — the battery was dead.
With no one in sight, despair (绝望) flooded over Leo. He sat down under a tree, shaking with both cold and fear, deeply regretting his decision. Just as he was about to lose hope, a friendly voice called out, “Is anyone there?” It was a forest ranger (护林员).
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。
Hearing that, Leo shouted at the top of his voice.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
An hour later, Leo’s parents arrived at the ranger station.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Hearing that, Leo shouted at the top of his voice. Then the ranger approached Leo. He smiled warmly, handed Leo a bottle of warm water, and comforted him. “Drink this, young man. You are safe now,” the ranger said softly. After taking a few sips of the warm water, Leo felt a wave of relief wash over him, and his shaking slowly stopped. The ranger then led him back to the station, using a thick blanket to keep him warm on the way. Once inside, the ranger plugged Leo’s dead phone into a charger and helped him contact his anxious family. Hearing his mother’s voice on the line, Leo’s eyes filled with tears of regret.
An hour later, Leo’s parents arrived at the ranger station. The moment his mother rushed through the door, she wrapped Leo in a tight, breathless hug, her face pale with worry. His father stood nearby. His eyes filled with relief rather than anger. Leo looked at his parents, his voice trembling as he said, “Mom, Dad, I am so sorry. I should have listened to your advice.” He sincerely apologized to his parents and thanked the ranger for saving his life. Looking at the dark forest outside, Leo secretly promised himself that he would always respect safety rules and never go on blind adventures again.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索,讲述了热爱户外探险的Leo不顾父亲进山需沿正规步道行走的叮嘱,自以为是、擅自闯入森林深处野路,最终他迷失方向、手机没电,在寒冷与恐惧中陷入绝望,濒临崩溃时幸运遇见巡逻的森林护林员,迎来获救的希望的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由首句可知,第一段续写描写Leo大声回应护林员,暖心的护林员送来温水、温柔安抚,帮助他平复颤抖的身体。随后护林员护送他返回护林站,为他充电、联系家人,Leo满心懊悔。
②由首句可知,第二段续写描写焦急的父母赶来,母亲紧紧拥抱Leo,父亲满心释然并未责怪。Leo诚恳道歉,深刻认识到自己的鲁莽,承诺今后严守安全规则,不再盲目冒险。
2.续写线索:大声呼救回应——护林员赶来安抚救助——平复情绪、保暖返程——充电联系家人——满心懊悔——父母匆忙赶来——家人温情相拥——诚恳认错道歉——吸取教训、坚守安全准则
3.词汇激活
