B. Spending time together makes little difference to their kids.
C. It’s worthwhile to do small yet special things with their kids.
【答案】17. A 18. A 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】M: Special family bonds are not created by big ship vacations, new toys, bicycles, or expensive clothes. Great families are formed by making time for each other, and by listening and caring. The good news is that it costs nothing to do these things. Last weekend, as my two little daughters and I were sitting outside the front steps of our house enjoying the sunshine, I had an idea that I and my two daughters, Sandra and Tina, would have a picnic in the park on the coming Wednesday noon instead of the regular lunch. Both Sandra and Tina lit up with surprise. “Great! Then we would put up a tent in the park just like a picnic in the mountain!” They shouted. That’s our little plan for a simple Wednesday. I’m sure it will become another example that small things contribute to special family moments. A picnic is something that works for us. It’s up to you to find out what those things are and do them. When your kids grow up, they won’t remember the iPad or toys you bought them. They will remember the time you spend with them.

From unexpected colour to making clever environmental choices, Joanna Plant, an interiors specialist and tastemaker, shares her design intentions for the year ahead.
·What is your New Year design resolution
I’d like to get out and look at things. The aim is to visit lots of houses and gardens for inspiration and see more exhibitions abroad. I love a house tour and try to find somewhere to go and look about whenever I travel outside London or abroad. I really appreciate seeing things first-hand these days.
·What was a highlight of 2023
Selling my house of 22 years and having the improvement of a new property — very exciting to be doing a project for myself! What’s fantastic is to work with suppliers who have amazing collections to discover and those who allow us to change the colours or make changes to existing designs.
·What design ideas do you have that you hope to bring to fruition
Happily, clients seem to be more responsive to having bolder paint plans and using more colours. We have been asking them to see how layering pattern can make a room more quiet and relaxing. I think that we are making our rooms look very nice by using a lot of decorative trims and accessories.
21. Where will Joanna prefer to go to get design ideas
A. Houses in America. B. Gardens in London.
C. Tastemakers’ houses. D. Gardening exhibitions.
22. What will Joanna probably agree with
A. That improving her old house is exciting. B. That working with suppliers is very fantastic.
C. That clients are willing to paint more colours. D. That layering pattern can make a room detailed.

B
It was meant to connect us, make us smarter and our lives easier. And it has. But there’s at least one comer of life where the Internet has made things so much more difficult: gift giving.
Once upon a time, if you were struggling to find a present for a loved one, there were easy options to fall back on-DVDs, CDs, video games and other physical media. This wasn’t even that long ago, but now it’s been snatched from our grasp by the Internet offering us the chance, at a relatively low cost, to watch, listen to or read whatever we want, whenever we want. With everything already watched, listened to, or read, buying a present has become near impossible.
Therefore, we all have to work at becoming perfect gift givers, taking all factors into consideration and searching high and low to seek out the ideal present. If we go the extra mile, there’s less chance that the person we have in mind has already bought what we’re considering online.
But as I now consider this exact plan of action, I’m thinking perhaps it’s not all that bad. Maybe the Internet is delivering us a lesson, firm but fair: the era of half-baked present purchasing is over and it’s time to go hard or go home.
In this era of immediate satisfaction, if you want to give someone a useful present, you do have to actually go to the effort of sourcing something nice for them. Perhaps that’s making for a more rewarding gift experience for all involved. And perhaps it also means fewer gifts that are given as an excuse and end up being unused.
24 How is the topic of gift giving introduced in Paragraph 1
A. By demonstrating the prospect of the Internet.
B. By showing the difficulty in using the Internet.
C. By pointing out the shortcoming of the Internet.
D. By arguing about the possible benefits of the Internet.
25. What might be a reason for gift giving being difficult according to Paragraph 2
A. Numerous gift options. B. Relative high cost for presents.
C. Limited offer from digital giants. D. Easy access to the Internet versions.
26. What does the author suggest readers do
A. Purchase satisfactory gifts. B. Try to select a present.
C. Buy fewer gifts as an excuse. D. Make more valuable presents.
27. What might be the author’s attitude towards nowadays gift giving
A. Confused. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Acceptable.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如今送礼物困难的问题,解释了背后的的原因以及给出了建议。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“It was meant to connect us, make us smarter and our lives easier. And it has. But there’s at least one comer of life where the Internet has made things so much more difficult: gift giving.(它的目的是连接我们,让我们更聪明,让我们的生活更轻松。它确实做到了。但至少在生活的一个方面,互联网让事情变得更加困难:送礼物)”可知,第一段通过指出互联网的缺点引入送礼的主题。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This wasn’t even that long ago, but now it’s been snatched from our grasp by the Internet offering us the chance, at a relatively low cost, to watch, listen to or read whatever we want, whenever we want. With everything already watched, listened to, or read, buying a present has become near impossible.(这是不久以前的事了,但现在它已经被互联网抢走了。互联网给我们提供了一个机会,以相对较低的成本,我们可以随时随地观看、收听或阅读我们想要的任何东西。人们已经看过、听过、读过所有的东西,买礼物几乎是不可能的)”可知,送礼困难的原因是容易在互联网上看到这些东西。故选D。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“In this era of immediate satisfaction, if you want to give someone a useful present, you do have to actually go to the effort of sourcing something nice for them. Perhaps that’s making for a more rewarding gift experience for all involved.(在这个即时满足的时代,如果你想给某人一份有用的礼物,你确实必须努力为他们寻找一些好东西。也许这对所有参与的人来说都是一个更有意义的礼物体验)”可知,作者建议读者试着选一份礼物。故选B。
27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Therefore, we all have to work at becoming perfect gift givers, taking all factors into consideration and searching high and low to seek out the ideal present. If we go the extra mile, there’s less chance that the person we have in mind has already bought what we’re considering online.(因此,我们都必须努力成为完美的送礼者,考虑所有因素,上下求全,寻找理想的礼物。如果我们加倍努力,我们心目中的人已经在网上买过我们想要的东西的可能性就会更小)”以及最后一段“Perhaps that’s making for a more rewarding gift experience for all involved. And perhaps it also means fewer gifts that are given as an excuse and end up being unused.(也许这对所有参与的人来说都是一个更有意义的礼物体验。也许这也意味着作为借口而送出的礼物少了,而这些礼物最终被闲置了)”可知,作者对现在送礼的态度是认为是可以接受的。故选D。
C
Growing up on a farm, Tori James spent much of her early years outdoors, building shelters and playing in muddy streams. She describes herself as an ambitious, adventurous child who went to bed reading the survival guides that lived on her bedside table. Even so, James says she could never have predicted that, one day, she might be the youngest British woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest.
Today, James is a professional adventurer. Yet ahead of her first expedition at the age of 18, which she spent mapping the cracks of Iceland’s Vatnaj kull glacier with the British Exploring Society, James recalls doubting her ability to last a month out in the cold without the comfort of a hot bath. “It’s only by stepping out of our comfort zone that we understand our true potential,”she explains. “That’s when the magic happens.”
Although James has spent a significant part of her life exploring some of the most remote landscapes in the world, when it comes to traveling, she believes that there are numerous ways for everyone to push their boundaries, other than by undertaking physical challenges. James also encourages would-be adventurers not to be put off by the stereotypical image of the rugged, hardy explorer. “I am such a believer that, with the right support and skills, everyone can bring something to an expedition,” she says.
Sometimes, she adds, it’s only out in the field that someone’s hidden talents emerge. A diverse team can be key to a successful trip, particularly given the role of exploration in today’s world. “Historically, exploration has been about people finding nature’s hardest obstacles and trying to either overcome them, or beat them,” says James. “But now, for me at least, exploration is about connecting, not conquering. It’s about our connection to the living world around us, it’s about sharing its importance once we’ve returned and it’s about figuring out how to do adventure sustainably.”
28. What do we know about James
A. She was once doubted to be a professional adventurer.
B. She enjoys reading thrilling adventure survival stories.
C. She was a child with big dreams and a desire for exploration.
D. She might be the youngest woman to conquer Mount Everest.
29. What would James probably agree with according to Paragraph 3
A. Few ways are there for us to push our boundaries.
B. Future explorers are supposed to venture bravely.
C. Exploring remote landscapes in the world is of significance.
D. Support and skills are sure to bring out the best of explorers.
30. What might be the value of exploration nowadays
A. To make the most of people’s hidden talent.
B. To overcome the possible hardest obstacles.
C. To figure out how to have a successful adventure.
D. To engage in sustainable interactions with nature.
31. What might be the best title of this text
A. Born to Be Adventurers. B. Connecting the Living World.
C. James’s Amazing Expeditions. D. Adventurer James’s Travel Insights.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了托里·詹姆斯从小喜欢探险,长大后成为专业的探险家,从而也形成了自己对探险旅行的独特见解。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“She describes herself as an ambitious, adventurous child who went to bed reading the survival guides that lived on her bedside table.(她把自己描述为一个有着雄心壮志、喜欢冒险的孩子,经常在床上阅读放在床头柜上的求生指南书籍)”可知,她是个怀揣远大梦想且热衷于探索的孩子。故选C项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“James also encourages would-be adventurers not to be put off by the stereotypical image of the rugged, hardy explorer.(詹姆斯还鼓励那些有志于探险的人们,不要被传统观念中那种粗犷顽强的探险家形象所吓倒)”可知,詹姆斯认为未来的探险家应该勇敢地冒险。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But now, for me at least, exploration is about connecting, not conquering. It’s about our connection to the living world around us, it’s about sharing its importance once we’ve returned and it’s about figuring out how to do adventure sustainably.(但现在,至少对我而言,探索更多是关于连接而非征服。它是关于我们与周围生机盎然的世界之间的联系,是关于我们返回后分享这些重要意义,以及如何可持续地进行探险活动的问题)”可知,与自然进行可持续的互动可能是当今探索的价值所在。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。结合全文及文章第三段“when it comes to traveling, she believes that there are numerous ways for everyone to push their boundaries, other than by undertaking physical challenges. James also encourages would-be adventurers not to be put off by the stereotypical image of the rugged, hardy explorer. “I am such a believer that, with the right support and skills, everyone can bring something to an expedition,” she says.(当谈到旅行时,她相信除了身体挑战之外,每个人都有很多方法来突破自己的极限。詹姆斯还鼓励那些有志于探险的人们,不要被传统观念中那种粗犷顽强的探险家形象所吓倒。她说:“我坚信,有了正确的支持和技能,每个人都能为探险贡献自己的一份力量”)”及最后一段““Historically, exploration has been about people finding nature’s hardest obstacles and trying to either overcome them, or beat them,” says James. “But now, for me at least, exploration is about connecting, not conquering. It’s about our connection to the living world around us, it’s about sharing its importance once we’ve returned and it’s about figuring out how to do adventure sustainably.”(詹姆斯表示,“历史上,探索一直是人们寻找自然界中最艰巨的障碍,并试图克服或战胜它们的过程。”但她补充道,“但现在,至少对我而言,探索更多是关于连接而非征服。它是关于我们与周围生机盎然的世界之间的联系,是关于我们返回后分享这些重要意义,以及如何可持续地进行探险活动的问题”)”可知,文章主要讲述了詹姆斯对探险旅行的独特见解。故“探险家詹姆斯的旅行见解”适合作为文章的标题。故选D项。

The polar research vessel (船舰) RRS Sir David Attenborough, which will always be thought of by some as Boaty McBoatface, is currently on an Antarctic task to find out how sea ice influences the cycle of nutrients and carbon in the world’s oceans.
The 12 researchers on board are using autonomous underwater vehicles to explore huge areas of free-floating sea ice. This will help us better understand how climate change is impacting organisms from microscopic plankton (浮游生物) to penguins and orcas. .
Last week, the vessel collected samples from around the A23a mega iceberg (a scientific term) . The largest iceberg in existence is almost 4, 000 sq km, equal to an area twice the size of Greater London, weighing close to a trillion metric tonnes and towering up to 1, 312 feet above the sea.
It originally broke away from a main ice shelf connected to Antarctica in 1986, but had remained stuck against the seabed ever since. Until last month. Now, A23a is drifting into the Southern Ocean.
Of course, one iceberg floating into warmer waters and melting is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the climate crisis. At COP28, billions and billions were promised to fund global I climate solutions, especially in developing nations. More than 130 countries agreed to deal with emissions in agriculture, with 118 promising to triple renewables too.
But more needs to be done. Forget the A23a iceberg being a threat to shipping, it’s a sign we may be all sunk.
32. What is the purpose of RRS Sir David Attenborough’s exploration
A. To be thought highly of as Boaty McBoatface.
B. To study the impact of the sea ice in circulation.
C. To record the cycle of nutrients and carbon globally.
D. To stand out as one of the best research vessels in the world.
33. What was this exploration most concerned about
A. The width of warm waters.
B. The shape of main ice shelf.
C. The size of remaining iceberg.
D. The weight of free-floating iceberg.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 5
A. Joint efforts was made to fix the climate crisis.
B. COP 28 made a difference to the climate crisis.
C. The climate crisis will be solved in the near future.
D. The melting of iceberg is just the start of the climate crisis.
35. How can we describe the author’s attitude according to the text
A. It never rains but it pours.
B. Facts speak louder than words.
C. Where there is global community, there is a way.
D. When the exploring stops, the destroying can too.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了RRS Sir David Attenborough号极地科考船在南极的任务,即探索海冰如何影响全球海洋中营养物和碳的循环,以及研究人员使用自主水下航行器进行探索的情况。同时,文章还提到了A23a巨型冰山的漂移情况,以及冰山融化与气候危机之间的关系。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The polar research vessel (船舰) RRS Sir David Attenborough, which will always be thought of by some as Boaty McBoatface, is currently on an Antarctic task to find out how sea ice influences the cycle of nutrients and carbon in the world’s oceans.(极地科考船RRS Sir David Attenborough号,被一些人称为Boaty McBoatface号,目前正在南极执行任务,以发现海冰如何影响世界海洋中营养物质和碳的循环。)”可知,极地科考船RRS Sir David Attenborough号在南极执行任务是为了研究海冰如何影响世界海洋中营养物质和碳的循环。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Last week, the vessel collected samples from around the A23a mega iceberg (a scientific term) . The largest iceberg in existence is almost 4, 000 sq km, equal to an area twice the size of Greater London, weighing close to a trillion metric tonnes and towering up to 1, 312 feet above the sea.(上周,这艘船从A23a巨型冰山(一个科学术语)周围采集了样本。现存最大的冰山面积近4000平方公里,相当于大伦敦的两倍,重达近一万亿公吨,高出海面1312英尺。)”可推测,本次探险科学家们最关心的是剩下的冰山还有多大。故选C。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第五段“Of course, one iceberg floating into warmer waters and melting is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the climate crisis. At COP28, billions and billions were promised to fund global I climate solutions, especially in developing nations. More than 130 countries agreed to deal with emissions in agriculture, with 118 promising to triple renewables too. (当然,当涉及到气候危机时,一座冰山漂浮到温暖的水域并融化只是冰山一角。在第28届联合国气候变化大会上,各国承诺为全球气候解决方案提供数十亿美元的资金,尤其是在发展中国家。130多个国家同意解决农业排放问题,其中118个国家承诺将可再生能源也增加两倍。)”可知,第五段讲述的是各个国家都承诺为全球气候解决方案提供数十亿美元的资金,也就是全世界人民都愿意共同努力以解决气候危机。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Of course, one iceberg floating into warmer waters and melting is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the climate crisis.(当然,当涉及到气候危机时,一座冰山漂浮到温暖的水域并融化只是冰山一角。)”以及第六段“But more needs to be done. Forget the A23a iceberg being a threat to shipping, it’s a sign we may be all sunk.(但需要做的还有很多。忘掉A23a冰山对航运的威胁吧,这是一个信号,表明我们可能都要沉没了。)”都暗示了作者认为威胁人类的危机还很多,冰山消融只是其中一个而已。所以“不雨则已,雨则倾盆”能说明作者的态度。故选A。

【56题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:19世纪中叶,世界被霍乱摧毁,数千人死于霍乱。考查本句谓语动词,根据时间状语“In the mid-19th century”可知,本句时态为一般过去时;主语为“the world”,单数,和动词“destroy”之间为被动关系,所以用被动语态。故填was destroyed。

【59题详解】
考查同位语从句。句意:他不相信当时普遍认为的霍乱是通过恶劣的空气传播的。这里为同位语从句的引导词,同位语从句中不缺少成分,用that连接。故填that。
【60题详解】
考查状语从句。句意:当他注意到大多数案件都集中在Soho区的一个水泵附近时/后,他的怀疑就产生了。这里为状语从句的引导词,根据句意可知,可以指的是“当……时”,用连词when引导;也可以指的是“在……之后”,用连词“after”引导。故填when或after。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他进行了更深入的调查,绘制了这些泵的分布图,并将它们与霍乱病例联系起来。非谓语动词担当状语,主语“he”和动词“associate”之间为主动关系,用现在分词形式。故填associating。
【62题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:通过详细的观察和大胆的实验,约翰·斯诺认定受污染的水是疫情背后的“罪犯”。固定搭配:identify…as…,意为“将……视作”,符合句意。故填as。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:他说服当局拆除了水泵的把手,有效地阻止了霍乱的传播。分析句子成分可知,空处为副词修饰动词“stop”,意为“有效地”。故填effectively。
【64题详解】
考查形容词。句意:他的行动挽救了无数人的生命,标志着公共卫生史上的一个重大转折点。分析句子成分可知,空处为形容词修饰空后的名词“lives”,意为“无数的”。故填countless。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Dion was having a running race. This race would stretch in six stages over seven days and cover almost 155 miles. Gobi, a little she-dog happened to join him. It was their third day.
The sky was clear, the weather was warm: the ground was firm beneath Gobi’s feet. From time to time, Dion would look over at her and smile. The warmth of that smile was even brighter than the sun beating down on them, but in a good way. It filled Gobi up.
As they progressed, a broad river popped into their sight, lying right in front. Dion had no idea how deep it was, but the race markers led right across, so he had to assume he’d be able to make it across as well.
Taking a deep breath, he took a careful step into the water. It was surprisingly cold considering how warm the day was, and he sank down up to his waist, but that was it. At least the riverbed seemed solid. He could make his way across; he just had to go slowly. One wrong step and he’d get completely wet. Plus, he could hurt himself since he couldn’t see where he was putting his feet. This was going to take a while.
Gobi watched as the man jumped into the water. She wagged her tail, but he didn’t look her way. He was clearly busy concentrating. She sat down just before the water and watched. Surely, he would turn around and notice that she wasn’t with him. But several minutes passed, and he got farther and farther away. Finally, Gobi couldn’t take it any longer. She began anxiously running up and down the riverbank. Was the man going to leave her
At the sound of her bark, Dion stopped. He always made a point of facing forward, always forward, during a race. But this time he did glance back. Gobi was sitting at the river’s edge, barking fiercely. There was no way the little dog could cross that on her own. These days, he’d fed her, given her water, and named her. He had to admit that he liked having her with him. She lifted his spirits.
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。
Paragraph 1: Right now, listening to her barking as he left her behind nearly broke his heart.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: This became tougher for Dion to cross the broad river.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Right now, listening to her barking as he left her behind nearly broke his heart. “Oh, fine!” Dion declared at last. Turning carefully, he started to make his way back. The second she saw him turn around, Gobi was on her feet, tail wagging furiously, her whimpers changing to happy barks. When he was close enough, Dion reached out one long arm and scooped Gobi up off the ground. Then he hugged her to his chest. The little dog lifted her head and licked his cheek, which tickled. Dion laughed. “Yeah, yeah, you’re welcome,” he told her.
This became tougher for Dion to cross the broad river. Before, Dion had kept his arms out for balance. Now one of them was holding Gobi instead. That meant he had only one arm free. He had to go even more slowly and more carefully. Through it all, Gobi was amazingly good. She didn’t struggle. She didn’t bark. She didn’t whimper. She just snuggled up against his chest and watched as they slowly inched their way across the river. Once they reached the other side, Dion set her down. She quickly circled him, barking and wagging her tail.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Dion参加了为期超7天的户外越野赛,偶遇一条狗Gobi的加入。赛事进入第三天,他们遇到了大河阻碍,一心比赛,Dion只身过河,但是Gobi在河边急切的召唤令他心碎。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“此刻,当他把戈壁抛在身后,听到她在他身后的吠叫声,几乎让他心碎。”可知,第一段可描写Dion又返回到河边,去接Gobi。
②由第二段首句内容“这对Dion来说,穿越这条宽阔的河流变得更加艰难了。”可知,第二段可描写Dion克服重重困难,带着Gobi顺利地渡过了这条河流。
2.续写线索:参加比赛——偶遇小狗——遇到阻碍——只身渡河——返回接狗——克服困难——成功过河

From unexpected colour to making clever environmental choices, Joanna Plant, an interiors specialist and tastemaker, shares her design intentions for the year ahead.
·What is your New Year design resolution
I’d like to get out and look at things. The aim is to visit lots of houses and gardens for inspiration and see more exhibitions abroad. I love a house tour and try to find somewhere to go and look about whenever I travel outside London or abroad. I really appreciate seeing things first-hand these days.
·What was a highlight of 2023
Selling my house of 22 years and having the improvement of a new property — very exciting to be doing a project for myself! What’s fantastic is to work with suppliers who have amazing collections to discover and those who allow us to change the colours or make changes to existing designs.
·What design ideas do you have that you hope to bring to fruition
Happily, clients seem to be more responsive to having bolder paint plans and using more colours. We have been asking them to see how layering pattern can make a room more quiet and relaxing. I think that we are making our rooms look very nice by using a lot of decorative trims and accessories.
21. Where will Joanna prefer to go to get design ideas

It was meant to connect us, make us smarter and our lives easier. And it has. But there’s at least one comer of life where the Internet has made things so much more difficult: gift giving.
Once upon a time, if you were struggling to find a present for a loved one, there were easy options to fall back on-DVDs, CDs, video games and other physical media. This wasn’t even that long ago, but now it’s been snatched from our grasp by the Internet offering us the chance, at a relatively low cost, to watch, listen to or read whatever we want, whenever we want. With everything already watched, listened to, or read, buying a present has become near impossible.
Therefore, we all have to work at becoming perfect gift givers, taking all factors into consideration and searching high and low to seek out the ideal present. If we go the extra mile, there’s less chance that the person we have in mind has already bought what we’re considering online.
But as I now consider this exact plan of action, I’m thinking perhaps it’s not all that bad. Maybe the Internet is delivering us a lesson, firm but fair: the era of half-baked present purchasing is over and it’s time to go hard or go home.
In this era of immediate satisfaction, if you want to give someone a useful present, you do have to actually go to the effort of sourcing something nice for them. Perhaps that’s making for a more rewarding gift experience for all involved. And perhaps it also means fewer gifts that are given as an excuse and end up being unused.
24. How is the topic of gift giving introduced in Paragraph 1
A. By demonstrating the prospect of the Internet.
B. By showing the difficulty in using the Internet.
C. By pointing out the shortcoming of the Internet.
D. By arguing about the possible benefits of the Internet.
25. What might be a reason for gift giving being difficult according to Paragraph 2
A. Numerous gift options. B. Relative high cost for presents.
C. Limited offer from digital giants. D. Easy access to the Internet versions.
26. What does the author suggest readers do
A. Purchase satisfactory gifts. B. Try to select a present.
C. Buy fewer gifts as an excuse. D. Make more valuable presents.
27. What might be the author’s attitude towards nowadays gift giving
A. Confused. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Acceptable.
C
Growing up on a farm, Tori James spent much of her early years outdoors, building shelters and playing in muddy streams. She describes herself as an ambitious, adventurous child who went to bed reading the survival guides that lived on her bedside table. Even so, James says she could never have predicted that, one day, she might be the youngest British woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest.
Today, James is a professional adventurer. Yet ahead of her first expedition at the age of 18, which she spent mapping the cracks of Iceland’s Vatnaj kull glacier with the British Exploring Society, James recalls doubting her ability to last a month out in the cold without the comfort of a hot bath. “It’s only by stepping out of our comfort zone that we understand our true potential,”she explains. “That’s when the magic happens.”
Although James has spent a significant part of her life exploring some of the most remote landscapes in the world, when it comes to traveling, she believes that there are numerous ways for everyone to push their boundaries, other than by undertaking physical challenges. James also encourages would-be adventurers not to be put off by the stereotypical image of the rugged, hardy explorer. “I am such a believer that, with the right support and skills, everyone can bring something to an expedition,” she says.
Sometimes, she adds, it’s only out in the field that someone’s hidden talents emerge. A diverse team can be key to a successful trip, particularly given the role of exploration in today’s world. “Historically, exploration has been about people finding nature’s hardest obstacles and trying to either overcome them, or beat them,” says James. “But now, for me at least, exploration is about connecting, not conquering. It’s about our connection to the living world around us, it’s about sharing its importance once we’ve returned and it’s about figuring out how to do adventure sustainably.”

A. She was once doubted to be a professional adventurer.
B. She enjoys reading thrilling adventure survival stories.

B. Future explorers are supposed to venture bravely.
C. Exploring remote landscapes in the world is of significance.
D Support and skills are sure to bring out the best of explorers.
30. What might be the value of exploration nowadays
A. To make the most of people’s hidden talent.
B. To overcome the possible hardest obstacles.
C. To figure out how to have a successful adventure.
D. To engage in sustainable interactions with nature.

The polar research vessel (船舰) RRS Sir David Attenborough, which will always be thought of by some as Boaty McBoatface, is currently on an Antarctic task to find out how sea ice influences the cycle of nutrients and carbon in the world’s oceans.
The 12 researchers on board are using autonomous underwater vehicles to explore huge areas of free-floating sea ice. This will help us better understand how climate change is impacting organisms from microscopic plankton (浮游生物) to penguins and orcas. .
Last week, the vessel collected samples from around the A23a mega iceberg (a scientific term) . The largest iceberg in existence is almost 4, 000 sq km, equal to an area twice the size of Greater London, weighing close to a trillion metric tonnes and towering up to 1, 312 feet above the sea.
It originally broke away from a main ice shelf connected to Antarctica in 1986, but had remained stuck against the seabed ever since. Until last month. Now, A23a is drifting into the Southern Ocean.
Of course, one iceberg floating into warmer waters and melting is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the climate crisis. At COP28, billions and billions were promised to fund global I climate solutions, especially in developing nations. More than 130 countries agreed to deal with emissions in agriculture, with 118 promising to triple renewables too.
But more needs to be done. Forget the A23a iceberg being a threat to shipping, it’s a sign we may be all sunk.
32. What is the purpose of RRS Sir David Attenborough’s exploration
A. To be thought highly of as Boaty McBoatface.
B. To study the impact of the sea ice in circulation.
C. To record the cycle of nutrients and carbon globally.
D. To stand out as one of the best research vessels in the world.
33. What was this exploration most concerned about
A. The width of warm waters.
B. The shape of main ice shelf.
C. The size of remaining iceberg.
D. The weight of free-floating iceberg.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 5
A. Joint efforts was made to fix the climate crisis.
B. COP 28 made a difference to the climate crisis.
C. The climate crisis will be solved in the near future.
D. The melting of iceberg is just the start of the climate crisis.
35. How can we describe the author’s attitude according to the text
A. It never rains but it pours.
B. Facts speak louder than words.
C. Where there is global community, there is a way.
D. When the exploring stops, the destroying can too.

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。
Dion was having a running race. This race would stretch in six stages over seven days and cover almost 155 miles. Gobi, a little she-dog happened to join him. It was their third day.
The sky was clear, the weather was warm: the ground was firm beneath Gobi’s feet. From time to time, Dion would look over at her and smile. The warmth of that smile was even brighter than the sun beating down on them, but in a good way. It filled Gobi up.
As they progressed, a broad river popped into their sight, lying right in front. Dion had no idea how deep it was, but the race markers led right across, so he had to assume he’d be able to make it across as well.
Taking a deep breath, he took a careful step into the water. It was surprisingly cold considering how warm the day was, and he sank down up to his waist, but that was it. At least the riverbed seemed solid. He could make his way across; he just had to go slowly. One wrong step and he’d get completely wet. Plus, he could hurt himself since he couldn’t see where he was putting his feet. This was going to take a while.
Gobi watched as the man jumped into the water. She wagged her tail, but he didn’t look her way. He was clearly busy concentrating. She sat down just before the water and watched. Surely, he would turn around and notice that she wasn’t with him. But several minutes passed, and he got farther and farther away. Finally, Gobi couldn’t take it any longer. She began anxiously running up and down the riverbank. Was the man going to leave her
At the sound of her bark, Dion stopped. He always made a point of facing forward, always forward, during a race. But this time he did glance back. Gobi was sitting at the river’s edge, barking fiercely. There was no way the little dog could cross that on her own. These days, he’d fed her, given her water, and named her. He had to admit that he liked having her with him. She lifted his spirits.
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。
Paragraph 1: Right now, listening to her barking as he left her behind nearly broke his heart.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: This became tougher for Dion to cross the broad river.
