At these popular beaches, you’ll feel as if you're in paradise. Here are four of the best beaches there. Tanjong Beach The white-sandy beach is man-made and it’s the perfect place to relax in the sun, read a book away from the crowds, or go for a swim in the ocean. Especially, the Tanjong Beach Club is a top nightlife spot for drinking cocktails (鸡尾酒) and enjoying water sports like surfing. Pulau Hantu This island has a quiet beach far from busy tourist spots. The island consists of two small islands that join at low tide. There’s soft white sand and clear blue-green water here, teeming with colorful corals and marine life. People often camp overnight on the island, as it is only accessible by boat. St. John's Island Beach You can enjoy a quiet beach on St. John’s Island. This pretty place has a beach that’s great for sunbathing, swimming in clear water, and having picnics away from the city. Visitors can also spot unique marine life, go fishing, and even rent cabins or bungalows to stay on the island. Make sure to bring everything you need — there are no shops on the island. Coney Island Coney Island beach is the perfect place to relax away from the crowds. This hidden destination offers a couple of sandy spots to relax — whether you’re walking or cycling around Coney Island. It is definitely one of the best beaches to visit alone for a therapeutic (治愈的) experience. Enjoyed this? Click here: The Best Island Getaways In and Around Singapore. 1.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了新加坡四个各具特色的美丽海滩，包括它们的位置、特点及适合的活动。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“People often camp overnight on the island, as it is only accessible by boat. (人们经常在岛上露营过夜，因为只能乘船抵达。)”可知，Pulau Hantu 岛交通不便，需乘船前往，且常需过夜，因此一天内难以往返。故选D。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一个海滩中“The white-sandy beach is man-made and it’s the perfect place to relax in the sun, read a book away from the crowds (这座白色的沙滩是人工建造的，是沐浴阳光、远离喧嚣安静读书的绝佳去处)”；第二个海滩中“This island has a quiet beach far from busy tourist spots. (这座岛屿拥有一处远离繁忙旅游景点的宁静海滩。)”；第三个海滩中“You can enjoy a quiet beach on St. John’s Island. (您可以在圣约翰岛上享受一片宁静的海滩。)”；第四个海滩“ Coney Island beach is the perfect place to relax away from the crowds. (科尼岛海滩是远离人群、放松身心的绝佳去处。)”可知，四个海滩强调其宁静、远离喧嚣的氛围；而其他选项如夜生活、渔网租赁、骑行热门等均只适用于个别海滩，并非共同点。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章结尾“Enjoyed this? Click here: The Best Island Getaways In and Around Singapore. (喜欢这篇文章吗？点击此处查看：《新加坡及周边最佳岛屿度假指南》。)”可推知，文本结尾带有互动引导和超链接提示，符合网页文章的常见特征。故选C。 B Jim Fullan is often mistaken as a player’s dad. Sometimes people even think he’s a coach. But the 57-year-old man is actually just part of the team. His return to the baseball field has been a long time coming. Fullan retired (退休) last year to reach his goal of playing college baseball. “I never took the opportunity to play in college or continue to try,” he says. “It was always on my mind.” Fullan applied to several Pennsylvania community colleges to get his degree and spoke to a couple of baseball coaches to learn about the programs. But they refused him. It wasn’t until he went to a few of the Montgomery County Community College Mustangs’ games last spring that he felt he found support. He introduced himself to the coaches and they accepted the idea of him becoming a special student and an athlete. Fullan showed up for the tryout (试训) last fall. The tryout made him anxious, particularly because he didn’t know how he was going to be received by his much younger teammates. There is truly a big age gap (差距). But he immediately caught the attention of the young who admired his determination (决心). With 25 players trying out, only 18 made the cut. That total included Fullan. When not attending class, Fullan is putting in work on the field. He’s not using age as an excuse. He attends all of the daily three-hour practices from Monday to Friday. Fullan says it is a daily challenge to keep up with his younger teammates so he has to get to practice early before they arrive. Actually, Fullan is able to pass along his wealth of knowledge from years of life experience to his teammates. This enables him to develop good relationships with the team. His story has been an inspiration to many away from the baseball field, including Kelly Dunbar, director of athletics at Montgomery County Community College. “I admire his courage to keep his dream alive,” she says, “because many people don’t do that these days.” 4. What can be learned about Fullan from the first two paragraphs? A. He hoped to re-experience college life. B. He tried to achieve a long-held dream. C. He coached young players after retirement. D. He surprised others with his athletic abilities. 5. What made Fullan worried during his tryout? A. The difficulty of keeping focused. B. Serious competition among players. C. The thought of making simple mistakes. D. Doubts about how teammates feel. 6. How does Fullan benefit his teammates with his being there? A. By sharing his life wisdom. B. By providing job opportunities. C. By driving detailed training plans. D. By offering practical baseball skills. 7. What message does the author mainly convey (传递) in the text? A. There are challenges for older athletes. B. Opportunities lie in proper preparation. C. It’s never too late to follow your dreams. D. Attention should be given to physical fitness. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是57岁的Jim Fullan退休后追逐大学棒球梦想，克服困难成功加入大学棒球队，用坚持实现梦想，激励了许多人。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Fullan retired (退休) last year to reach his goal of playing college baseball. “I never took the opportunity to play in college or continue to try,” he says. “It was always on my mind.”(富兰去年退休，为了实现打大学棒球的目标。“我当年从未抓住机会在大学打球，也没能继续尝试，” 他说，“这件事一直萦绕在我心头。”)”可知，他重返球场是为了试图实现一个长久以来的梦想。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The tryout made him anxious, particularly because he didn’t know how he was going to be received by his much younger teammates.(试训让他十分焦虑，尤其是他不知道比自己年轻很多的队友会如何看待他。)”可知，他担心队友们对他的看法和感受。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Actually, Fullan is able to pass along his wealth of knowledge from years of life experience to his teammates.(事实上，富兰能够把多年人生阅历沉淀的丰富经验分享给队友。)”可知，他通过分享自己的人生智慧让队友受益。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Jim Fullan is often mistaken as a player’s dad. Sometimes people even think he’s a coach. But the 57-year-old man is actually just part of the team. His return to the baseball field has been a long time coming. Fullan retired (退休) last year to reach his goal of playing college baseball. “I never took the opportunity to play in college or continue to try,” he says. “It was always on my mind.”(吉姆・富兰经常被误认为是球员的父亲。有时人们甚至以为他是教练。但这位 57 岁的男子实际上只是球队一员。他重返棒球场，这个愿望盼了很久。富兰去年退休，为了实现打大学棒球的目标。“我当年没有机会在大学打球，也没能继续尝试，” 他说，“这件事一直萦绕在我心头。”)”可知，文章主要讲述了57岁的Fullan在退休后为了实现自己打大学棒球的梦想，克服年龄差距和重重困难，最终成功加入球队并激励了他人的故事。因此，作者主要想传达的信息是“追随梦想永远不晚”。 C A recent fireworks (烟花) show, held in the Himalayas by a well-known outdoor brand (品牌) working with a famous artist, has drawn widespread attention and heated discussions. The event, wanting to put art and nature together, has raised worries about its possible influence on the local ecosystem. The brand said that the event was designed to celebrate the beauty of nature through art. However, many people have expressed worries about the environmental results of setting off fireworks in such an ecologically sensitive region. Environmental experts point out that the Himalayas are home to unique wildlife and plants that could be disturbed by the loud noises and bright lights of fireworks. Moreover, the remains (残留物) of fireworks might pollute the soil and water sources, which are extremely important for the local environment. Although the brand stated that they had found ways to reduce the environmental impact, such as using biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials and cleaning up after the event, the public remains unsure. Some people believe that no fireworks show should be held in such a fragile (脆弱的) natural habitat (栖息地). Local authorities (管理部门) have also begun to look into the event. They stressed the importance of balancing artistic activities with environmental protection, especially in areas as fragile as the Himalayas. This event has caused a broader discussion about the responsibility of artists and brands to protect nature when expressing art. It reminds us that while art is valuable, it should not come at the cost of harming the environment. Up to now, the brand has not yet given a detailed follow-up plan about the show. All eyes are on the brand, and the public is eagerly waiting to see how the brand will reply to these concerns. 8. What is the purpose of the show? A. To attract more tourists. B. To draw attention to the brand. C. To test new firework materials. D. To express the beauty of nature with art. 9. Which might be a direct result of the show? A. Attracting more tourists. B. Polluting local resources. C. Killing wildlife and plants. D. Improving the brand’s image. 10. Which is the key focus of the local authorities on this event? A. Supporting more artistic events. B. Stopping all fireworks in the area. C. Making rules on artistic activities. D. Keeping nature and art hand in hand. 11. Which word can explain the underlined word in the last paragraph? A. opportunities B. worries C. rules D. plans 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了某户外品牌联合艺术家在喜马拉雅举办烟花秀，旨在用艺术赞美自然，却引发生态担忧。专家指出其危害，官方介入调查，公众等待品牌对相关顾虑作出详细回应。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The brand said that the event was designed to celebrate the beauty of nature through art.(该品牌表示，这场活动旨在通过艺术赞颂自然之美)”可知，这场烟花秀的目的是用艺术展现自然之美。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Moreover, the remains (残留物) of fireworks might pollute the soil and water sources, which are extremely important for the local environment.(此外，烟花残留物可能污染土壤和水源，而这些对当地环境至关重要)”可知，该活动的一个直接后果是污染当地资源。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“They stressed the importance of balancing artistic activities with environmental protection, especially in areas as fragile as the Himalayas.(他们强调平衡艺术活动与环境保护的重要性，尤其是在喜马拉雅山这类脆弱地区)”可知，当地管理部门关注的重点是让自然与艺术携手共存。 【11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“All eyes are on the brand, and the public is eagerly waiting to see how the brand will reply to these concerns.(所有人都关注该品牌，公众迫切等待品牌将如何回应这些concerns)”可知，所有人都关注该品牌，公众迫切等待品牌将如何回应这些担忧，concerns此处意为担忧，与worries同义。 D Taking in dirty air does great harm to our health. Air pollution lowers the average life spans by a year worldwide and in more polluted parts of Asia and Africa, dirty air shortens lives up to twice that much. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters. The study used data gathered in 2016 as part of a project known as the Global Burden of Disease and was the first major country-by-country look at the connection between the length of life and what’s known as fine PM. Air pollution has been linked to many health problems. Most earlier studies had looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. Joshua Apte is an environmental scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. By looking at life expectancy (预期寿命), his team had hoped to make the threat easier to understand. PM2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM2.5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average length of life. This analysis shows how pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air. Apte’s group calculated how holding pollution to this low level would help people. In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen people’s lives. However, in countries whose air already meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard won’t reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks. Meanwhile, the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe. 12. What is special about the study? A. It won recognition from a professional journal. B. It discussed health problems caused by air pollution. C. It gathered lots of data for the Global Burden of Disease. D. It analyzed the link between life spans and PM by country. 13. What is Joshua Apte’s team trying to do? A. Help people better understand air pollution. B. Study life expectancy in different countries. C. Know how small air pollutants affect health. D. Deal with different kinds of health problems. 14. What will happen if a country limits PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air? A. People’s life spans will surely increase. B. It will guarantee people clean air. C. People’s health may not be much improved. D. It will be awarded by the WHO. 15. What might be discussed in the following paragraphs? A. How other threats shorten life expectancy. B. How cleaning up the air can lengthen lives. C. How air pollution shortens lives by country. D. How all the countries deal with severe pollution. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究表明，空气污染威胁人类的健康，缩短了人类的寿命。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段关键句“The study used data gathered in 2016 as part of a project known as the Global Burden of Disease and was the first major country-by-country look at the connection between the length of life and what’s known as fine PM.”（这项研究使用了2016年收集的数据，作为一个名为“Global Burden of Disease”项目的一部分，是第一次对寿命长短和所谓的“精细PM”之间的关系进行国别研究。）可知，这项研究是第一次对寿命长短和PM之间的关系按照不同国家的不同情况进行了研究，由此可知，这项研究的特别之处在于它按国家分析了寿命长短和PM之间的联系。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“Joshua Apte is an environmental scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. By looking at life expectancy (预期寿命), his team had hoped to make the threat easier to understand. PM2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM2.5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average length of life.”（Joshua Apte是得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的环境科学家。通过观察预期寿命，他的团队希望让人们更容易理解这种威胁。PM2.5被科学家称之为空气中的微小污染颗粒。更高水平的PM2.5会导致健康问题，并缩短平均寿命的几个月，如果不是几年的话。）可知，Joshua Apte和团队告诉人们什么是PM2.5，并告诉人们PM2.5对人的健康和生命会造成威胁，由此可知，Joshua Apte的团队想要帮助人们更好地了解空气污染。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air.”（世界卫生组织建议将PM2.5限制在每立方米空气中10微克。）和“In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen people’s lives. However, in countries whose air already meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard won’t reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks.”（在空气污染严重的国家，达到这一标准将延长人们的寿命。然而，在空气质量已经达到这一标准的国家，这项研究表明预期寿命没有增加。换句话说，达到世卫组织的标准不会降低因空气污染而产生的健康成本，因为即使低于每立方米10微克，污染仍然会造成严重风险。）可知，将PM2.5限制在每立方米空气中10微克不一定能延长人们的寿命，因为即使低于每立方米10微克，污染仍然会造成严重风险，由此可知，如果一个国家将PM2.5限制在每立方米空气中10微克，人们的健康可能没有多大改善。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“Meanwhile, the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe.”（同时，科学家们比较了包括吸烟和癌症在内的其他威胁是如何缩短全球人口的寿命的。）可知，文章最后一段提到科学家们也研究了包括吸烟和癌症在内的其他威胁是如何缩短人类寿命的，由此可推断出，接下来的段落中可能会讨论其他威胁是如何缩短预期寿命的。故选A项。 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，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 （注意：E涂AB；F涂AC；G涂AD） Quick tips for better time management Are you a good time manager?

He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible. “Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get full marks. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for the test.” Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have the test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently. “The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said. “So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary scored 100 percent in the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary — the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought. After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribusion” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. He had spelled it wrong. “What should I do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master of spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back.” Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written on his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him — we ought to be an honest person. 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。 Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Slowly, Peter raised his hand. “Mr. White, I didn’t score 100 percent in the test. I misspelled a word.” He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper. “I spelled ‘contribution’ with ‘s-i’ instead of ‘t-i’. Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk. Mr. White held up Peter’s test paper. “Class,” he said, “Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly in a test.” Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.” Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. “Peter, I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example to all of us. We are all proud of you, and you deserve this prize,” Mr. White said. Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Peter为了英语拼写测试努力准备，最终获得满分并得到奖品，但他发现自己有一个单词拼写错误，在经过一番思想斗争后，他决定向老师坦白。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“慢慢地，Peter举起了手。”可知，第一段可描写Peter向老师承认自己拼写错误并归还奖品，同学们感到惊讶，老师表扬了他的诚实。 ②由第二段首句内容“Mr. White对Peter微笑着。‘他给我们所有人上了一堂关于诚实的课。’”可知，第二段可描写Peter得到同学们的认可，老师再次肯定他并将字典作为奖品送给他，Peter感到开心并想与母亲分享。 2. 续写线索：Peter举手承认错误——归还奖品——老师表扬诚实——同学们认可——老师再次送字典——Peter开心想分享 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①递给：hand/pass ②走回：walk back to/return to ③举起：hold up/lift 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②为……感到自豪：be proud of/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1] Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk.(运用了as引导时间状语从句) [高分句型2] Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him.(运用了省略that的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年上学期高一（2029届）10月阶段练习 英 语 试 卷 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

At these popular beaches, you’ll feel as if you're in paradise. Here are four of the best beaches there. Tanjong Beach The white-sandy beach is man-made and it’s the perfect place to relax in the sun, read a book away from the crowds, or go for a swim in the ocean. Especially, the Tanjong Beach Club is a top nightlife spot for drinking cocktails (鸡尾酒) and enjoying water sports like surfing. Pulau Hantu This island has a quiet beach far from busy tourist spots. The island consists of two small islands that join at low tide. There’s soft white sand and clear blue-green water here, teeming with colorful corals and marine life. People often camp overnight on the island, as it is only accessible by boat. St. John's Island Beach You can enjoy a quiet beach on St. John’s Island. This pretty place has a beach that’s great for sunbathing, swimming in clear water, and having picnics away from the city. Visitors can also spot unique marine life, go fishing, and even rent cabins or bungalows to stay on the island. Make sure to bring everything you need — there are no shops on the island. Coney Island Coney Island beach is the perfect place to relax away from the crowds. This hidden destination offers a couple of sandy spots to relax — whether you’re walking or cycling around Coney Island.

His return to the baseball field has been a long time coming. Fullan retired (退休) last year to reach his goal of playing college baseball. “I never took the opportunity to play in college or continue to try,” he says. “It was always on my mind.” Fullan applied to several Pennsylvania community colleges to get his degree and spoke to a couple of baseball coaches to learn about the programs. But they refused him. It wasn’t until he went to a few of the Montgomery County Community College Mustangs’ games last spring that he felt he found support. He introduced himself to the coaches and they accepted the idea of him becoming a special student and an athlete. Fullan showed up for the tryout (试训) last fall. The tryout made him anxious, particularly because he didn’t know how he was going to be received by his much younger teammates. There is truly a big age gap (差距). But he immediately caught the attention of the young who admired his determination (决心). With 25 players trying out, only 18 made the cut. That total included Fullan. When not attending class, Fullan is putting in work on the field. He’s not using age as an excuse. He attends all of the daily three-hour practices from Monday to Friday. Fullan says it is a daily challenge to keep up with his younger teammates so he has to get to practice early before they arrive. Actually, Fullan is able to pass along his wealth of knowledge from years of life experience to his teammates. This enables him to develop good relationships with the team. His story has been an inspiration to many away from the baseball field, including Kelly Dunbar, director of athletics at Montgomery County Community College. “I admire his courage to keep his dream alive,” she says, “because many people don’t do that these days.” 4. What can be learned about Fullan from the first two paragraphs? A. He hoped to re-experience college life. B. He tried to achieve a long-held dream. C. He coached young players after retirement. D. He surprised others with his athletic abilities. 5. What made Fullan worried during his tryout? A. The difficulty of keeping focused. B. Serious competition among players. C. The thought of making simple mistakes. D. Doubts about how teammates feel. 6. How does Fullan benefit his teammates with his being there? A. By sharing his life wisdom. B. By providing job opportunities. C. By driving detailed training plans. D. By offering practical baseball skills. 7. What message does the author mainly convey (传递) in the text? A. There are challenges for older athletes. B. Opportunities lie in proper preparation. C. It’s never too late to follow your dreams. D. Attention should be given to physical fitness. C A recent fireworks (烟花) show, held in the Himalayas by a well-known outdoor brand (品牌) working with a famous artist, has drawn widespread attention and heated discussions. The event, wanting to put art and nature together, has raised worries about its possible influence on the local ecosystem. The brand said that the event was designed to celebrate the beauty of nature through art. However, many people have expressed worries about the environmental results of setting off fireworks in such an ecologically sensitive region. Environmental experts point out that the Himalayas are home to unique wildlife and plants that could be disturbed by the loud noises and bright lights of fireworks. Moreover, the remains (残留物) of fireworks might pollute the soil and water sources, which are extremely important for the local environment. Although the brand stated that they had found ways to reduce the environmental impact, such as using biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials and cleaning up after the event, the public remains unsure. Some people believe that no fireworks show should be held in such a fragile (脆弱的) natural habitat (栖息地). Local authorities (管理部门) have also begun to look into the event. They stressed the importance of balancing artistic activities with environmental protection, especially in areas as fragile as the Himalayas. This event has caused a broader discussion about the responsibility of artists and brands to protect nature when expressing art. It reminds us that while art is valuable, it should not come at the cost of harming the environment. Up to now, the brand has not yet given a detailed follow-up plan about the show. All eyes are on the brand, and the public is eagerly waiting to see how the brand will reply to these concerns. 8. What is the purpose of the show? A. To attract more tourists. B. To draw attention to the brand. C. To test new firework materials. D. To express the beauty of nature with art. 9. Which might be a direct result of the show? A. Attracting more tourists. B. Polluting local resources. C. Killing wildlife and plants. D. Improving the brand’s image. 10. Which is the key focus of the local authorities on this event? A. Supporting more artistic events. B. Stopping all fireworks in the area. C. Making rules on artistic activities. D. Keeping nature and art hand in hand. 11. Which word can explain the underlined word in the last paragraph? A. opportunities B. worries C. rules D. plans D Taking in dirty air does great harm to our health. Air pollution lowers the average life spans by a year worldwide and in more polluted parts of Asia and Africa, dirty air shortens lives up to twice that much. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters. The study used data gathered in 2016 as part of a project known as the Global Burden of Disease and was the first major country-by-country look at the connection between the length of life and what’s known as fine PM. Air pollution has been linked to many health problems. Most earlier studies had looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. Joshua Apte is an environmental scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. By looking at life expectancy (预期寿命), his team had hoped to make the threat easier to understand. PM2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM2.5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average length of life. This analysis shows how pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air. Apte’s group calculated how holding pollution to this low level would help people. In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen people’s lives. However, in countries whose air already meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard won’t reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks. Meanwhile, the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe. 12. What is special about the study? A. It won recognition from a professional journal. B. It discussed health problems caused by air pollution. C. It gathered lots of data for the Global Burden of Disease. D. It analyzed the link between life spans and PM by country. 13. What is Joshua Apte’s team trying to do? A. Help people better understand air pollution. B. Study life expectancy in different countries. C. Know how small air pollutants affect health. D. Deal with different kinds of health problems. 14. What will happen if a country limits PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air? A. People’s life spans will surely increase. B. It will guarantee people clean air. C. People’s health may not be much improved. D. It will be awarded by the WHO. 15. What might be discussed in the following paragraphs? A. How other threats shorten life expectancy. B. How cleaning up the air can lengthen lives. C. How air pollution shortens lives by country. D. How all the countries deal with severe pollution. 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，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 （注意：E涂AB；F涂AC；G涂AD） Quick tips for better time management Are you a good time manager?

He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible. “Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get full marks. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for the test.” Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have the test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently. “The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said. “So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary scored 100 percent in the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary — the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought. After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribusion” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. He had spelled it wrong. “What should I do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master of spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back.” Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written on his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him — we ought to be an honest person. 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。 Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
