I became bald (秃头的) at two due to a condition. At school I was bullied (欺凌) for it. Sports became my escape, and I was fortunate to have born athletic ability. I would race home every day and shoot basketball for hours. I put all my time and energy in basketball to become the best player I could be.
I had a great high-school career, breaking countless school records, and received a scholarship to play in college. It was a dream come true. However, I sill rarely talked about my condition. I continued to wear my wig (假发) all the time, no matter the weather or what I was doing.
In my senior year of college, I wanted to run the marathon. During that 26.2-mile run, I felt strong, truly like Superwoman. I will never forget the feeling of crossing the finish line, and the way everyone celebrated me. I began running marathons all over the country. I loved the feeling I got from running and training. I looked forward to my runs in the morning when the rest of the world was still sleeping. This training, I looked forward to my runs in the morning when the rest of the world was sill sleeping. This was my chance to reflect, dream big, and enjoy the sound of my feet on the pavement. The more I ran, the stronger and more confident I felt. I slowly started to talk about my condition to close friends.
Then one day, on a hot training run, I threw off my wig while tears welled up in my eyes. For the first time, I felt strong, beautiful, and brave. Getting home that day, I looked at myself in the mirror and saw someone kind, caring and full of joy. Two weeks later, I ran my first marathon wigless and was celebrated and loved during that entire race weekend. I was surrounded by such positivity and support that I didn’t even think of my wigless head. Tears welled in my eyes as I crossed that finish line in San Diego.

Two climate activists made for a beautiful Monet painting exhibited at the National Museum in Sweden on a recent Wednesday morning, gluing (粘) a hand to the artwork’s protective glass and putting it in red paint. Similar scenes have unfolded at more than a dozen museums over the last year, leaving cultural workers at a loss for how to prevent climate activists from targeting delicate artworks. Meanwhile, the costs for security, conservation and insurance are growing, according to cultural institutions that have experienced attacks.
Cultural institutions are attempting to be active when their budgets allow. At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, more security has been added to certain exhibitions. Returning a painting to its former glory after attacks can require hours of careful conservation work, and expensive glass cannot prevent liquids from getting through the protective barrier.
The number of workers required to clean a painting like the Monet is big, with about 10 people working for a couple of days. But there are limited options for a state-run museum to prevent an attack. “An extreme consequence would be to close the museum,” said Hedstrom from the National Museum, though that was unrealistic, since the collection belongs to the Swedish public.
Last month, Joanna and Tim were charged for damaging an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, after they put paint on the case surrounding the fragile sculpture of “Little Dancer” in April. Each charge carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and fines of up to $250,000. It was seen as a turning point, while climate activists have called the sentence unjust. “We didn’t mean to rampage anything in the museums but call for people to think about what they value on Earth,” Joanna said. Kaywin, the National Gallery’s director, said she appreciated the work done by the authorities to bring these serious charges. “What on earth does Degas’s ‘Little Dancer’ have to do with climate change Of course, the answer is nothing,” she said.
8. What accounts for the activists’ actions at the museum
A. Destroying the valueless paintings.
B. Exposing paintings to the public.
C. Expressing their climate concern.
D. Testing the security of the museums.
9. What can be inferred from Hedstrom’s words
A. Further actions will include losing the museums.
B. It’s not practical to close the museums for safety.
C. The museums aren’t to blame for the climate crisis.
D. The government should cover the cost of the repair.
10. What does the underlined word “rampage” mean in Para. 4
A. Ear. B. Avoid. C. Promote. D. Destroy
11. What does Kaywin think about the activists’ deed
A. The artwork has nothing to do with climate crisis.
B. The activists shouldn’t be punished for their action.
C. The activists should protect the valuable artworks.
D. Activists and museums can join hands in protection.
D
Regarding the increasing rate of childhood obesity in the U.S., the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended that doctors put obese kids as young as two on intensive, family-based lifestyle and behavior plans. It also suggested giving weight-loss drugs and surgery to children. Yet the recommended lifestyle programs are expensive and hard to maintain.
Rather than that, we need to invest in more and safer places for children to play. Studies show clearly that moving more helps both physical and mental health. In 2020 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found, unsurprisingly, that kids’ sports participation increases with their parents’ incomes.
Children between 6 and 17 should get at least an hour of physical activity every day. Yet only 21% to 28% of U.S. kids meet this target, surveys found. Why is it so hard to get kids moving In addition to fewer opportunities at school, researchers list increased screen time, changing norms around letting kids play outdoors, and a lack of safe places for them to play outside. Lower-income neighborhoods tend to have the fewest public play spaces. And although rural areas have more undeveloped outdoor space, they often lack playgrounds, tracks and exercise facilities.
Kids everywhere need more places to play: trails, skate parks and climbing walls, gardens and ball fields, bike paths and basketball courts. Public funding to build and keep up these areas is crucial, but other options such as shared-use agreements can make unused spaces available to the public. Only 10 percent of U.S. schools let people into their playgrounds when school is out, the Trust for Public Land (TPL) found, and opening up these spaces would give 5.2 million more children access. “Play streets”— residential streets or parking lots that are temporarily closed for activities — are another affordable way to give kids more chances to run around.
These opportunities aren’t about changing children’s waistlines — they’re how we keep childhood healthy and fun.
12. What does AAP suggest about dealing with obese children
A. Training them on the basis of the family.
B. Providing more safe playgrounds for them.
C. Setting aside regular school time for sports.
D. Finding ways to increase their parents’ incomes.
13. Whys it hard for American children to exercise
A. Their studies take up most of their normal lives.
B. They spend more time on mobiles or computers.
C. They have drugs as an alternative to stay healthy.
D. They’re not admitted to undeveloped outdoor space.
14. What did the TPL find about playgrounds in public schools
A. They are a necessary part of sports facilities.
B. They are all lent to the public on agreements.
C. They can’t run smoothly for lack of public fund.
D. They’re mostly inaccessible when school is off.
15. How does the author view the suggestions
A. They’re set to reduce childhood obesity.
B. They call for government’s joined efforts.
C. They’ll make children’s life full of fun.
D. They work best with kids in “play streets”.

47. 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。
“Animal Rescue Center. How can I help you ” a deep voice came through the phone receiver.
“I’d like to report a wounded animal,” I replied. I continued to explain approximately where I saw the animal. I was promised someone would go out that day to investigate what animal it was and remove the animal if needed.
Earlier that morning, I’d been on my way to meet a friend for breakfast. Driving down the road that connected two neighborhoods, there was nothing but tall trees and grassy areas on both sides of the road for a few miles. Then, I caught sight of a brown, black and white tail swaying (摇动) at the side of the road. Throughout breakfast, I couldn’t get the animal off my mind. I named him Furry. Perhaps it was someone’s loving cat or dog. Maybe a fox I wasn’t sure.
After I called Animal Rescue Center, I decided to look on social media to see if anyone was missing a dog or cat in the surrounding neighborhoods where I had spotted Furry. There weren’t any listed missing pets that matched the description of what I saw, so I wrote a post describing Furry’s coloring and asked if anyone was missing a pet in that area By the end of the day, I didn’t get any replies to my post, so I came to the conclusion it must have been an animal in the wild.
The next morning, on my way to work driving on the same route I started singing along at the top of my lungs, until I saw Furry! There he was, far down the road, half behind some brush. Now, I was worried he would go onto the road. So I called Animal Rescue Center again, hoping they could catch and put him to safety or bring him to a wildlife center.
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。
About ten minute later, two men arrived in the Animal Rescue Center truck.

I became bald (秃头的) at two due to a condition. At school I was bullied (欺凌) for it. Sports became my escape, and I was fortunate to have born athletic ability. I would race home every day and shoot basketball for hours. I put all my time and energy in basketball to become the best player I could be.
I had a great high-school career, breaking countless school records, and received a scholarship to play in college. It was a dream come true. However, I sill rarely talked about my condition. I continued to wear my wig (假发) all the time, no matter the weather or what I was doing.
In my senior year of college, I wanted to run the marathon. During that 26.2-mile run, I felt strong, truly like Superwoman. I will never forget the feeling of crossing the finish line, and the way everyone celebrated me. I began running marathons all over the country. I loved the feeling I got from running and training. I looked forward to my runs in the morning when the rest of the world was still sleeping. This training, I looked forward to my runs in the morning when the rest of the world was sill sleeping. This was my chance to reflect, dream big, and enjoy the sound of my feet on the pavement. The more I ran, the stronger and more confident I felt. I slowly started to talk about my condition to close friends.
Then one day, on a hot training run, I threw off my wig while tears welled up in my eyes. For the first time, I felt strong, beautiful, and brave. Getting home that day, I looked at myself in the mirror and saw someone kind, caring and full of joy. Two weeks later, I ran my first marathon wigless and was celebrated and loved during that entire race weekend. I was surrounded by such positivity and support that I didn’t even think of my wigless head. Tears welled in my eyes as I crossed that finish line in San Diego.

Two climate activists made for a beautiful Monet painting exhibited at the National Museum in Sweden on a recent Wednesday morning, gluing (粘) a hand to the artwork’s protective glass and putting it in red paint. Similar scenes have unfolded at more than a dozen museums over the last year, leaving cultural workers at a loss for how to prevent climate activists from targeting delicate artworks. Meanwhile, the costs for security, conservation and insurance are growing, according to cultural institutions that have experienced attacks.
Cultural institutions are attempting to be active when their budgets allow. At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, more security has been added to certain exhibitions. Returning a painting to its former glory after attacks can require hours of careful conservation work, and expensive glass cannot prevent liquids from getting through the protective barrier.
The number of workers required to clean a painting like the Monet is big, with about 10 people working for a couple of days. But there are limited options for a state-run museum to prevent an attack. “An extreme consequence would be to close the museum,” said Hedstrom from the National Museum, though that was unrealistic, since the collection belongs to the Swedish public.
Last month, Joanna and Tim were charged for damaging an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, after they put paint on the case surrounding the fragile sculpture of “Little Dancer” in April. Each charge carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and fines of up to $250,000. It was seen as a turning point, while climate activists have called the sentence unjust. “We didn’t mean to rampage anything in the museums but call for people to think about what they value on Earth,” Joanna said. Kaywin, the National Gallery’s director, said she appreciated the work done by the authorities to bring these serious charges. “What on earth does Degas’s ‘Little Dancer’ have to do with climate change Of course, the answer is nothing,” she said.
8. What accounts for the activists’ actions at the museum
A. Destroying the valueless paintings.
B. Exposing paintings to the public.
C. Expressing their climate concern.
D. Testing the security of the museums.
9. What can be inferred from Hedstrom’s words
A. Further actions will include losing the museums.
B. It’s not practical to close the museums for safety.
C. The museums aren’t to blame for the climate crisis.
D. The government should cover the cost of the repair.
10. What does the underlined word “rampage” mean in Para. 4
A. Ear. B. Avoid. C. Promote. D. Destroy
11. What does Kaywin think about the activists’ deed
A. The artwork has nothing to do with climate crisis.
B. The activists shouldn’t be punished for their action.
C. The activists should protect the valuable artworks.
D. Activists and museums can join hands in protection.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一些环保分子跑到博物馆捣乱，试图破坏艺术大师的作品，以唤起人们的环保意识，然而这种行为受到法律的谴责。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Two climate activists made for a beautiful Monet painting exhibited at the National Museum in Sweden on a recent Wednesday morning, gluing (粘) a hand to the artwork’s protective glass and putting it in red paint. Similar scenes have unfolded at more than a dozen museums over the last year, leaving cultural workers at a loss for how to prevent climate activists from targeting delicate artworks.(最近的一个周三上午，两名气候活动家为瑞典国家博物馆展出的一幅美丽的莫奈画作做了准备，他们将一只手粘在艺术品的保护玻璃上，并将其涂上红色颜料。去年，十几家博物馆发生了类似的场景，让文化工作者不知所措，不知道如何防止气候活动人士把精美的艺术品作为攻击目标。)”根据第四段“We didn’t mean to rampage anything in the museums but call for people to think about what they value on Earth”（我们并不是要在博物馆里乱撞，而是呼吁人们思考他们在地球上的价值）可知，环保分子到十几家博物馆捣乱，甚至破坏一些艺术大师的作品，文章提到这些人是环保分子，由此推断他们这样做的目的是引起人们对环保的关注。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的““An extreme consequence would be to close the museum,” said Hedstrom from the National Museum, though that was unrealistic, since the collection belongs to the Swedish public.(“极端的后果是关闭博物馆，”国家博物馆的赫德斯特罗姆说，尽管这是不现实的，因为这些藏品属于瑞典公众。)”可知，Hedstrom认为，面对这些破坏分子的极端行为而关闭博物馆是不现实的，因为这些藏品是属于大众的，由此推断，他认为出于安全而关闭博物馆是不现实的。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据尾段中的“Last month, Joanna and Tim were charged for damaging an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, after they put paint on the case surrounding the fragile sculpture of “Little Dancer” in April.(上个月，乔安娜和蒂姆被指控破坏了华盛顿国家美术馆的一场展览，他们在四月份给脆弱的《小舞者》雕塑周围涂了油漆。)”可知，很多环保分子因破坏了美术馆的展品而被指控，结合划线单词后的“but call for people to think about what they value on Earth.(而是呼吁人们思考他们在地球上的价值。)”可知，捣乱分子Joanna说他们不是要“毁坏”博物馆中的东西，而是要唤醒人们反思什么才是地球上最宝贵的东西，所以该单词的意思与“destroy”以及相近。故选D项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的““What on earth does Degas’s ‘Little Dancer’ have to do with climate change Of course, the answer is nothing,” she said.(“德加的《小舞者》到底和气候变化有什么关系 ”当然，答案是什么都没有。”。)”可知，Kaywin认为，博物馆收藏的这些艺术品与气候变化没有任何关系。故选A项。
D
Regarding the increasing rate of childhood obesity in the U.S., the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended that doctors put obese kids as young as two on intensive, family-based lifestyle and behavior plans. It also suggested giving weight-loss drugs and surgery to children. Yet the recommended lifestyle programs are expensive and hard to maintain.
Rather than that, we need to invest in more and safer places for children to play. Studies show clearly that moving more helps both physical and mental health. In 2020 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found, unsurprisingly, that kids’ sports participation increases with their parents’ incomes.
Children between 6 and 17 should get at least an hour of physical activity every day. Yet only 21% to 28% of U.S. kids meet this target, surveys found. Why is it so hard to get kids moving In addition to fewer opportunities at school, researchers list increased screen time, changing norms around letting kids play outdoors, and a lack of safe places for them to play outside. Lower-income neighborhoods tend to have the fewest public play spaces. And although rural areas have more undeveloped outdoor space, they often lack playgrounds, tracks and exercise facilities.
Kids everywhere need more places to play: trails, skate parks and climbing walls, gardens and ball fields, bike paths and basketball courts. Public funding to build and keep up these areas is crucial, but other options such as shared-use agreements can make unused spaces available to the public. Only 10 percent of U.S. schools let people into their playgrounds when school is out, the Trust for Public Land (TPL) found, and opening up these spaces would give 5.2 million more children access. “Play streets”— residential streets or parking lots that are temporarily closed for activities — are another affordable way to give kids more chances to run around.
These opportunities aren’t about changing children’s waistlines — they’re how we keep childhood healthy and fun.
12. What does AAP suggest about dealing with obese children
A. Training them on the basis of the family.
B. Providing more safe playgrounds for them.
C. Setting aside regular school time for sports.
D. Finding ways to increase their parents’ incomes.
13. Whys it hard for American children to exercise
A. Their studies take up most of their normal lives.
B. They spend more time on mobiles or computers.
C. They have drugs as an alternative to stay healthy.
D. They’re not admitted to undeveloped outdoor space.
14. What did the TPL find about playgrounds in public schools
A. They are a necessary part of sports facilities.
B. They are all lent to the public on agreements.
C. They can’t run smoothly for lack of public fund.
D. They’re mostly inaccessible when school is off.
15. How does the author view the suggestions
A. They’re set to reduce childhood obesity.
B. They call for government’s joined efforts.
C. They’ll make children’s life full of fun.
D. They work best with kids in “play streets”.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国的学生肥胖率居高不下，专家对此提出一些解决的办法，比如开放安全的户外活动空间，给学生更多机会锻炼。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Regarding the increasing rate of childhood obesity in the U.S., the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended that doctors put obese kids as young as two on intensive, family-based lifestyle and behavior plans.(针对美国儿童肥胖率的上升，美国儿科学会(AAP)建议医生让肥胖儿童在两岁时就进行密集的、以家庭为基础的生活方式和行为计划)”可知，美国儿科学会对处理肥胖儿童的建议是以家庭为基础对他们进行培训。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Why is it so hard to get kids moving In addition to fewer opportunities at school, researchers list increased screen time, changing norms around letting kids play outdoors, and a lack of safe places for them to play outside.(为什么让孩子动起来这么难？除了在学校的机会减少之外，研究人员还列出了屏幕时间增加，让孩子在户外玩耍的规范改变，以及缺乏安全的户外玩耍场所)”可知，第三段谈到了对谈到美国的学生为什么没有足够的锻炼时间，其中提到看屏幕的时间增加了。由此可知，美国儿童很难锻炼是因为他们花更多的时间在手机上或电脑上。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Only 10 percent of U.S. schools let people into their playgrounds when school is out, the Trust for Public Land (TPL) found, and opening up these spaces would give 5.2 million more children access.(公共土地信托基金(TPL)发现，只有10%的美国学校允许学生在放学时进入操场，而开放这些空间将使520万儿童能够进入操场)”可推知，TPL发现当学校放假时，他们大多无法进入公立学校的操场。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Kids everywhere need more places to play: trails, skate parks and climbing walls, gardens and ball fields, bike paths and basketball courts. Public funding to build and keep up these areas is crucial, but other options such as shared-use agreements can make unused spaces available to the public.(世界各地的孩子都需要更多玩耍的地方:小路、滑板公园和攀岩墙、花园和球场、自行车道和篮球场。建设和维护这些区域的公共资金至关重要，但其他选择，如共享使用协议，可以使未使用的空间向公众开放)”以及最后一段“These opportunities aren’t about changing children’s waistlines — they’re how we keep childhood healthy and fun.(这些机会不是为了改变孩子们的腰围，而是为了让我们的童年保持健康和快乐)”可推知，作者认为这些建议会让孩子们的生活充满乐趣。故选C项。

47. 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。
“Animal Rescue Center. How can I help you ” a deep voice came through the phone receiver.
“I’d like to report a wounded animal,” I replied. I continued to explain approximately where I saw the animal. I was promised someone would go out that day to investigate what animal it was and remove the animal if needed.
Earlier that morning, I’d been on my way to meet a friend for breakfast. Driving down the road that connected two neighborhoods, there was nothing but tall trees and grassy areas on both sides of the road for a few miles. Then, I caught sight of a brown, black and white tail swaying (摇动) at the side of the road. Throughout breakfast, I couldn’t get the animal off my mind. I named him Furry. Perhaps it was someone’s loving cat or dog. Maybe a fox I wasn’t sure.
After I called Animal Rescue Center, I decided to look on social media to see if anyone was missing a dog or cat in the surrounding neighborhoods where I had spotted Furry. There weren’t any listed missing pets that matched the description of what I saw, so I wrote a post describing Furry’s coloring and asked if anyone was missing a pet in that area By the end of the day, I didn’t get any replies to my post, so I came to the conclusion it must have been an animal in the wild.
The next morning, on my way to work driving on the same route I started singing along at the top of my lungs, until I saw Furry! There he was, far down the road, half behind some brush. Now, I was worried he would go onto the road. So I called Animal Rescue Center again, hoping they could catch and put him to safety or bring him to a wildlife center.

【答案】范文
About ten minutes later, two men arrived in the Animal Rescue Center truck. Seeing them coming, I felt a sense of relief, knowing that they would catch the animal and take it to the wildlife center, which meant safety for it. The two men approached Furry cautiously, and then caught it. It was a dog, wounded in one leg. Furry was sent to the center, where it received good treatment. Under the professional care of the workers, it was recovering fast, and now it could run about, bringing fun and entertainment to the workers at the center.
A few days later, I went to the center to visit the dog Furry after its recovery. The moment I approached the center, the dog seemed to have recognized me and welcomed me, wagging its tail. After learning that it would stay in the center until it was adopted, I was excited. It was at this very moment that it occurred to me that I could take Furry home for company. From then on, we have been good friends for each other.
