37.根据“There are plenty of ways to title your subfolders for projects,but one of the most intuitive(使用简便的)is to have folders for stages of your project.(有很多方法可以为项目的子文件夹命名，但最直观的方法之一是为项目的各个阶段设置文件夹）”可知，空处总结前面给出的方法所带来的好处，为项目的各个阶段设置文件夹最终能够让你随时知道要获取的文件是哪个。C项“这样，您就可以随时知道要获取的最终项目文件是哪个。”符合语境。C项中的this way指代前文中的“one of the most intuitive”这种最简便的方法之一。故选C。

39. 根据“It's near impossible to find a photo quickly when you have thousands of photos all named something like"20211108_0978234.jpg."

40.根据大标题“Use tags.(使用标记)”以及“In addition to creating a folder structure that works for you, consider tagging files.(除了创建适合您的文件夹结构外，还可以考虑标记文件）”可知，本段所给建议为标记文件。空处表明使用标记的好处。A项“使用标记，可以跨文件夹连接多个文件。”符合语境。A项中的With tags和前文中的consider tagging files想呼应。故选A.

Getting to Know the Plants Around Us
Aiming to encourage us to get close to nature, our school launched an activity —Getting to Know the Plants around Us last Sunday.
As scheduled, we gathered at the school gate at 8 am, and then took a coach to the local botanical garden. Upon arriving there, we were fascinated by the beauty and diversity of the plants, ranging from unique local plants to rare ones, which really feasted our eyes.
The activity greatly won our favor. Apart from providing a chance to relax us physically and mentally, it also helped us deepen our insight into the plant world.
She explained she used to escape her realities by doing the same thing. “Then one day,” Sarah explained, “I started to think about why I wanted to be like the people in the movies.” And then it occurred to me that they had their scripts already written out for them. However, I had the ability to write my own script. “If I had the power to determine the plot of my life movie,then why wouldn't I make it an inspiring one, a movie with a happy ending ” she said. “You are the star of your own movie.Now all you need is your story.” she added.
Inspired by her words, I decided that I would produce my own life story. No other actress could fill my role. It was up to me to produce, direct and edit my life. I would set my own goals I was capable of achieving from now on. There can be no success without the possibility of failure. The only sure way of failing is by refusing to try. I looked over at Sarah, and said “Thank you”, squeezing her hand. The curtain rose, and my film began.
【导语】本文以作者对电影的喜爱为线索展开。作者是一名高中生，在面对生活和学业中各种压力和挫折时，不能积极应对，而是选择沉溺于电影中人物的完美结局来逃避现实。最后在好朋友的开导下，作者认识到自己的人生电影应该由自己主导，剧本应该由自己撰写，与其逃避现实，不如直面人生，勇于尝试，做自己电影中的主角。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“她解释说，她过去常常通过做同样的事情来逃避现实。”可知，优秀的Sarah 曾经也做了同样的事情来逃避现实。故续写内容可围绕 Sarah如何转变态度和做法，并以自身经历开导启发作者展开。
②由第二段首句内容“受她的启发，我决定创作自己的人生故事。”可知，作者深受 Sarah 话语的鼓舞和激励。故续写内容可围绕作者心态的转变和立志做自己人生电影的主角展开。
2.续写线索
解释——谈及自己的经历——受到启发——心态转变——立志

Good evening, everyone. It's your trusted weather reporter, James Powers. As you've noticed, there's been 10 inches of rainfall since this afternoon. Starting at around 2: 00 p.m., this storm has shown itself to be much stronger than we thought. (18) We expect an additional six inches of rain by tomorrow noon.
Luckily, this storm hasn't caused significant ocean waves to flood the streets. So, coastal neighborhoods and suburban(郊区的) towns aren't in danger.But, unluckily, the flooding and rain will hit us right here in the city. That means this city's downtown areas are most at risk. (18)
Now, our city's emergency rescue team has offered valuable advice. I'll share some of these suggestions now. First, for people living in ground-level apartments, try to stay with friends or family elsewhere. Besides, for anyone with large glass windows, do whatever possible to protect the exposed glass. Finally, to all viewers, do not attempt to drive anywhere. (19) Panic from this storm has caused heavy traffic on all roads leaving Manhattan.
We'll be here giving you advice every step of the way. But first, here's Julia. She's here to provide us with more information about this city's blocked roads. (20)长沙市雨花区名校2023-2024学年高三上学期入学考试

The service was fast but not supper attentive, which we didn't mind at all. For $20 each with tip and feeling full and happy, this is a spot I'd definitely recommend!

In the late 1990s, a family visited the public elementary school where I taught deaf students. They said they would be moving to the district and planned to enroll (报名) their deaf daughter as a first grader. They were upset that their child's kindergarten teacher Jane cautioned them not to have high hopes for her academically. Based upon assessment results, the teacher painted a discouraging picture for their little girl's future. Standing behind them was Fiona, a beautiful five-year -old with long shiny brown hair and dark flashing eyes. The whole time her parents were there she didn't make a sound or use sign language, even when her parents encouraged her.
After a few weeks with Fiona, I discovered I was dealing with a very bright, very strong-willed child. Although I was able to engage her in a variety of learning activities, writing was a continual struggle. I tried all kinds of ways to interest her in writing. Every time the pencils came out, she would shut down and refuse to participate.
One day Fiona got off her bus and stood in front of the school, weeping. The staff members present did not know enough sign language to ask her why she was crying. Finally they took her into the office where they handed her a pen and notepad. Fiona wrote: "PACBAK". Immediately the office staff realized she left her backpack on the bus. They asked the bus to come back to school and soon Fiona was reunited with her backpack.
That day Fiona discovered the power of the pen. From then on, she had a new appreciation for writing. She is a young woman now and has become an excellent writer, public speaker and student leader. During her senior year in high school, Fiona became the Douglas County Rodeo Queen and the following year she enrolled at the University of Northern Colorado, determined to become a teacher. In the summer of 2008, I traveled to the National Association of the Deaf Conference in New Orleans and watched her perform competitively as Miss Deaf Colorado. Fiona keeps in touch and I especially treasure her e-mails with term papers attached. This young lady has a very powerful pen!

What is the purpose of lightning The new study published at the end of April in Science found that lightning may play a bigger role in global climate change than was previously known by the scientific community.
Many are familiar with the potentially deadly dangers posed by lightning, which is blamed for an average of 43 deaths in the United States each year, based on data from 1989 to 2018. Although the odds of being struck are quite low-1 in 1, 222, 000 in a given year and 1 in 15, 300 in a lifetime many in the weather community have long urged people to take proper precautions to stay safe in storms. However, the researchers recently uncovered a surprising and beneficial impact of lightning.
The study, which included contributions from nine atmospheric researchers across a dozen universities, was based on an airborne research flight conducted by a NASA DC-8 storm-chasing plane in 2012. Researchers initially thought there was a problem with the equipment on the plane, which was being used to measure the hydroxyl radicals (羟基自由基) in the atmosphere until they realized increases they observed corresponded with lightning flashes. ABC News reported.
Hydroxyl radicals,described as a “chemical scavenger (清洗剂) “by Science Direct, are important chemical compounds found in the atmosphere due to the reactive nature with other organic molecules (分子). Researchers previously understood that lightning could help to clean the atmosphere, but there was no evidence that it could generate compounds like these radicals. "No one has seen that much in the atmosphere from natural processes, ever," Brune said. As a result, the study estimates that somewhere between 2% and 16% of the oxidizing (氧化),or cleaning that happens naturally in the Earth's atmosphere, is done by lightning.
Why is this significant The oxidation process helps to reduce chemicals like carbon monoxide and methane in the atmosphere. These chemicals, known for being greenhouse gases, have been proven to contribute to rising temperatures associated with climate change. Researchers say that more studies will need to be conducted to verify the degree to which lightning contributes to the fight against global climate change.
28. What do the statistics in Para 2 tell us about lightning
A. It threatens human lives. B.It can only harm people.
C. It is a strange phenomenon. D. It happens quite frequently.
29. What led to the new discovery in the text
A. The equipment failure on the storm-chasing plane.
B. The lightning flashes observed by the research team.
C. The airborne research conducted by NASA scientists.
D. The increase of Hydroxyl radicals during lightning.
30. How does Brune feel about the finding
A. Doubtful. B. Frustrated. C. Amazed. D. Ambiguous.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Hydroxyl radicals clean the atmosphere.
B. Oxidizing is a natural result of lightning.
C. Lightning may help address climate change.
D. Greenhouse gases contribute to rising temperature.

Computer games have seriously caught the attention of Mass Media. The increasing amount of games with violent scenes socks the society and makes it very aware of them. The fact that violent games cause violence in people is not even doubted by most people. Some say that the reason lies in games being too close to reality. But is it justified only according to the external similarity of these two worlds
Games originally are entertainment. Contemporary games are very realistic and for this reason they are a source of great experience for the player and develop the imagination. Games are more than entertainment. The research of the New York University led by Green and Bavelier claims that the player preferring active games get an improvement of some types of brain activity, related to processing of visual information. In particular, game players cope with problems of simultaneously (同时地) tracking several moving objects at the average level of 30% better than people who do not play active computer video games. A game is an abstraction. A player gets abstract tasks and acts according to abstract rules. Games are also the possibility to be whoever a person wants to be and to rest from the outside world for some time.
But what if a person gets so much excited with the game scenes that he becomes violent in reality Then, it proves that the games cause people to become violent. A psychologically healthy person will never confuse or connect these two different worlds. A game is a virtual world with visual images very similar to human. These images represent by themselves nothing but simple playing obstacles. A game may potentially give the opportunity to "destroy the obstacles" that may not be destroyed according to the rules, but it is more about personal choice whether to do it or not. This leads us to the conclusion that violence is not a consequence but the cause. People who originally tend to violence may get annoyed by games and perform violence in the "real world". In this case violence in games is a simple justification of the violent nature of the player.
32. Which of the following best explains “sock” underlined in Para. 1
A. Transform. B. Strike. C. Interest. D. Confuse.
33. What can we learn from the research carried out by Green and Bavelier
A. Games can promote some kinds of brain activity.
B. Games can give people space to be themselves.
C. Games can be a source of great experience.
D. Games can help players solve problems.
34. Which of the following accounts for violence in real life
A. Abstract violent tasks. B. Violent visual images.
C. Realistic computer games. D. Individuals' violent nature.
35.What is the best title for the text
A. Violence: Not a Consequence of Games
B. Violence: Not a Justification of Players
C. Games: The Violent Virtual Reality
D. Games: The Cause of Violence

How to Organize Your Digital Files
Searching for a file on your computer is a whole lot easier than digging through a pile of papers, yet it's far from being a perfect system. Lately, it's been hit-or-miss for me. ___36___ I hope some of these tips will help you.
Use “resources”, “in progress”, “final”, and “scrap” folders for projects.
There are plenty of ways to title your subfolders for projects,but one of the most intuitive (使用简便的) is to have folders for stages of your project. ___37___
The “resources” folder is for things like images, documents, and other items that are needed to complete your project. ___38___ “Final,” as you might imagine, is for the project files once the project has been approved and is done. "Scrap" is for anything you want to save from the project that doesn't belong in the "final" folder.
___39___
It's near impossible to find a photo quickly when you have thousands of photos all named something like “20211108_0978234.jpg.” So for photos, I like to have a date structure and folders for key events or categories, such as: 2021 >01 (for the month) >2021-01 Mom and Dad 50 Anniversary LA. This way, you can either browse your photos by year and month or search for folders that include “Mom”, “Dad”, “Anniversary”, or “LA. ”
Use tags.
In addition to creating a folder structure that works for you, consider tagging files. ___40____ Say, for example, you want to see all of your photos for all of your holiday celebrations. You can set up a tag for “holidays.” And then to narrow down the results, you can search using the tag.
A.With tags, you can connect multiple files across folders. B.For photos, use a date structure and keywords for your folders. C.This way,you can always know which is the final project file to grab. D.The standards will keep files organized and make them easier on the eye. E.“In progress” is for the current working version or versions of the project. F.To find files more efficiently, I've been rearranging my digital filing system. G.Move your photos to a more specific folder or back them up on an external storage device.

Be a Star of Your Own Movie
I always loved the movies. It didn't even matter if I went to see them alone. In the movies, nothing seemed impossible: I became the star of the cheerleading team who leads her team to victory, or the teenager who bridges the gap between the races at her high school, or even the young woman who falls in love with a handsome nobleman from the nineteenth century. And I would always live happily ever after.
In fact, I liked to pretend what was happening on-screen was happening in my own life as well. I liked the happy endings, the perfect happy endings. I wanted my life to be like that, happy and wonderful. I wanted to escape the stress of family and friends and school. My only escape from the reality that trapped me was heading for a movie theatre.
I hadn't always been this way. As a young girl I was outgoing and friendly, and even involved in after-school activities. High school was different, though. I became quiet and withdrawn.
My parents were worried about me. They urged me to call old friends or get more involved with school. After promising my parents a thousand times that I would call one of my old friends, I finally agreed. The only number I knew by heart was Sarah's, so I called her. Sarah herself was pretty close to perfect: straight-A student, class president, off to Yale in the fall, beautiful, sweet, brilliant. We decided to meet for a pizza lunch.
We ate and talked and caught up on old times. I told her how difficult it had been for me in the past few years and how unbearable the pressure had been. “I wish my life was the way it is in the movies, ” I sighed, “I would be so much easier.” I looked down through my fingers, face in my hands. “I understand,” she said. I looked up at her, questioning her with my eyes.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
She explained she used to escape her realities by doing the same thing.
Inspired by her words, I decided that I would produce my own life story.
