Passage 1
(2023安徽淮南二模)
From the time I was a young girl,all I wanted was to play outside.I used the ferns (蕨类植物) in my childhood backyard to raise myself up muddy Pacific Northwest slopes (斜坡),sat by the edge of the property’s wooded stream and imagined it was a winding river.
Hours were spent on horseback,prepared with bags and snacks to ride the same path over and over,always dreaming up a new experience.As an adult,my interests are consistent,though the landscape has shifted.For the last four years,I have had the opportunity to explore our Earth’s most remote cold water locations as an underwater videographer and ocean-focused naturalist,developing an appreciation and understanding for challenging corners of the globe.Though my travels have taken me from Antarctica to the Arctic,it’s the temperate in-between that captivates me.During the last four years,Southeast Alaska,particularly the Inian Islands in its incredible wildness and productivity,has stolen my attention.My name is Alyssa Adler,I am the Inian Islands Institute’s 2019 Scientist in Residence and National Geographic grant recipient for project Tall Trees in Cold Seas.
The natural beauty of the Inians is pure,but the environment works for it.Massive rushing tides (潮水) flood the Hobbit Hole twice daily,like an angry river.Sometimes I learn some meaningful and useful lessons the hard way.Transportation of extensive dive equipment required the help of people in Ketchikan,Gustavus and other places.These lessons only allow my respect for this region to the full,teaching me how to be successful.I need to learn and understand the power and network of Southeast Alaska,both in the water and out.It’s all worth it to roll into the salty Pacific Ocean,turn on my cameras as I sink to the seafloor,and shine my lights on early spring in the Inian Islands.

Passage 2
(2023广东湛江二模)
As you walk around the UK in March,you might notice that some people are wearing a daffodil(水仙花) on their coats.The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities:the Marie Curie Cancer Care.
The Marie Curie Cancer Care tries to ensure everyone diagnosed with cancer is cared for in the best possible way.It also helps fund research into possible cures through other organizations.Founded in 1948,it has been continuing with its goal ever since.
The charity was named after Marie Curie,a renowned scientist.She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity.Unfortunately,over-exposure to the radioactive elements made her develop a disease and die in 1934.Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in two different fields.Because of her pioneering work which led to chemotherapy (化学疗法),the charity shared the name of Marie Curie.
The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK,which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter.Because of this,the charity uses the daffodil as a metaphor for bringing life to other people through charitable giving.
Everyone you see wearing a daffodil has donated money to the charity,but each daffodil is worth only what you want to pay for it.The charity does ask that you stick to a minimum amount of £1.
The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March,when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” kicks off.But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March.People are sometimes seen walking around with daffodils on their clothes all year round.

A.They support a charity.
B.They are recovering from cancer.
C.They’ve been helped by a charity.

C.Famous. D.Humorous.
7.Why was the charity named after Marie Curie
A.Because patients required that.
B.Because it was launched by her.
C.Because she greatly supported it.
D.Because it could show respect for her.
8.What can we learn about the daffodil from the text
A.It can be used as medicine.
B.It’s thought to stand for hope.
C.It’s widely worn worldwide.
D.It’s sold to the wearers at a high price.
Passage 3
(2023陕西渭南一模)
Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect.Students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying.But why does teaching help
Researchers did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher’s learning because it forces the teacher to find back what they’ve learned.They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them.They told the students they could take notes while studying,but would teach the material afterwards without notes.After studying the text,the students were divided into four groups.In one group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes.The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic(算术) problems,teaching with a script(讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice.A week later,all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.
The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.
The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice;that is,the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling the taught materials.
The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education.In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material,they should internalize(内化) the material before presenting it to others,rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.
9.Why does the author give a question in paragraph 1
A.To look for readers’ answer.
B.To introduce the topic.
C.To keep a sense of mystery.
D.To show off his knowledge.
10.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.Why the study started.
B.How the study was done.
C.How many people joined in the study.
D.What conclusion the researchers made.
11.What should be stressed in school education according to the author
A.Previewing-by-teaching.
B.Note-taking.
C.Learning-by-teaching.
D.Mind-mapping.
12.Where is the text probably from
A.A history textbook. B.A newspaper.
C.A guideline. D.A detective novel.

分析:本句为复合句。who spend time teaching what they’ve learned为定语从句,修饰先行词Students;其中what引导宾语从句,what在从句中作learned的宾语;and为并列连词,连接并列的宾语better understanding和ability;to remember knowledge为动词不定式作定语,修饰ability;who simply spend the same time re-studying为定语从句,修饰先行词students。
句意:花时间教授他们所学知识的学生比那些只花同样时间重新学习的学生表现出更好的理解和记忆能力。
