Four Top Ski Resorts (旅游胜地) in Michigan, USA
Ski Brule
In Michigan’s Upper Peninsula region sits Ski Brule, a family-friendly mountain resort offering skiing and snowboarding for all ages and abilities. The resort offers 17 ski runs and 11 lifts; the property sees 150 inches of snow each year, with snowmaking abilities as well. Ski Brule typically opens for the season in late November and remains open as long as there are good snow conditions (typically until mid-April).
Mount Bohemia
Mount Bohemia is a Michigan ski resort reserved for advanced skiers only, with steep slopes (斜坡) and exposed rock formations. There are 585 skiable acres (英亩), featuring two chairlifts and a 900-foot drop. The Keweenaw Peninsula region receives an average of 273 inches of snow each year due to the area’s lake effect.
Marquette Mountain Resort
Marquette Mountain is a four-season day resort with views of Lake Superior. Unusual for a ski resort is its focus on art, demonstrated through installations like the “Guardians of the Hill”: giant sculptures positioned at the base of the mountain, made from old railroad parts and collectively weighing in at 5 tons.
Shanty Creek Resort
Set across 5,500 acres, Shanty Creek Resort includes four distinct villages open year-round for enjoyment in northern Michigan. If you’re competitive, Schuss Mountain hosts a variety of annual ski race events; Shanty Creek also hosts the White Pine Stampede, Michigan’s oldest and longest cross-country skiing race.

Adaptive clothing brand Befree was founded by Nikki Puzzo and Joanne DiCamillo, two Massachusetts mothers who saw a need for clothing for individuals with disabilities. The inspiration for the brand came from Puzzo’s daughter, Stella. She is an eighth-grader and leads an active lifestyle, participating in activities like swimming, gymnastics, and working out with a trainer.
When Stella had a surgery at the age of 5, she was left with casts on both legs and a bar between them, making it impossible for her to wear traditional pants. Stella had to wear dresses or long T-shirts during her three month recovery period, which was unbearable for her. Wanting to find a solution that would allow her daughter to wear pants, Puzzo took apart a pair of brightly colored pajama bottoms and sewed them in Velcro. This simple fix turned out to be a “game changer” for Stella.
Impressed by the pants, the doctor at Boston Children’s Hospital encouraged Puzzo to mass-produce them, as many parents often struggle with dressing their children with disabilities. This feedback from the doctor motivated Puzzo and DiCamillo to start Befree.
Their goal is for adaptive clothes to be commonly found in stores and sold alongside traditional clothing within the next five years. While Befree did raise funds through a crowdfunding campaign, the company is primarily self-funded. They have not sought outside investment yet.
DiCamillo emphasized that the market for adaptive clothing extended beyond children with disabilities and includes adults with disabilities and individuals recovering from surgeries. The team is currently working on expanding their product range to include leggings, shorts, joggers and even jeans. They have already received numerous requests for adult sizes.
Overall, Befree is a company founded by mothers who saw a need for adaptive clothing and took action to meet this demand. Their determination and innovation have resulted in a brand that aims to make dressing easier and more inclusive for individuals with disabilities. With their focus on expanding their product range and making adaptive clothing mainstream, Befree is prepared to have a significant impact on the fashion industry.

B. She went through an operation.
C. She choked while learning to swim.
D. She got hurt when doing gymnastics.

C. Its products are in great demand. D. It was founded by two doctors.
7．What is the best title for the text!
A. Joanne DiCamillo: A Great Partner
B. Nikki Puzzo: A Wonderful Mother
C. Stella: A Girl Suffering From an illness
D. Befree: A Company Making Adaptive Clothing
When wildfire smoke from huge fires in Canada blanketed the US in the summer of 2023, emergency rooms saw an increase in admissions for lung problems, heart attacks and other health issues.
Burning fossil fuels has driven climate change, and now climate change is costing people their health and increasingly their lives, says a new report from the medical journal The Lancet. The eighth annual Lancet Countdown, an international analysis that tracks nearly 50 different health-focused issues affected by climate change, calls for an immediate wind-down of fossil fuel use.
Those with the least historical responsibility for causing climate change are feeling the worst effects. Pakistan—a country responsible for roughly 0.3% of all climate-change-causing carbon emissions, suffered huge floods in 2022 that displaced more than 30 million people and killed at least 1,700. However, wealthier countries cannot be spared. In the US, wildfire smoke this summer sent people to the emergency room from New York to Georgia. In Europe, a 2022 summer heat wave resulted in over 60,000 deaths.
About one fifth of all US residents work outdoors; the percentages are even higher in many other countries. When it gets too hot, it gets harder and harder to work. Last year, the report says, outdoor workers lost more than 140 hours each — or several weeks of pay — because of the intense heat.
The human and economic costs are forecast to grow with every tenth of a degree hotter the planet gets. Heat-related deaths, for example, could increase by nearly five times by the middle of the century, if without immediate reductions to carbon emissions.
“I have a young patient who presents with uncontrollable asthma. She lives right next to a highway and is breathing in harmful air from cars burning gas,” Renee Salas, a doctor at Harvard’s Chan School of Public Health says. “So the treatment she needs is electric vehicles, home weatherization and air purification. These are prescriptions I can’t write.”
8．What can be learned from paragraph 3
A. The wildfire has burned large areas of forest.
B. Pakistan is largely responsible for climate change.
C. Climate change has caused a lot of human deaths.
D. People in wealthier countries have good health care.
9．Which statement will the author probably agree with
A. American residents worked very hard last year.
B. There is nothing people can do about climate change.
C. The economy has also been affected by climate change.
D. Heat-related deaths will double by the middle of the century.
10．What docs Renee Salas imply in the last paragraph
A. She advocates green lifestyle.
B. She prefers to drive an electric car to work.
C. Young people are more likely to get asthma.
D. Hospitals are short of medicines to treat asthma.
11．What is the text mainly about
A. The advantage of living in the US. B. The cause of climate change.
C. The stress of working outdoors. D. The harm of climate change.
Social media can lead to mental exhaustion (疲惫). And when mentally exhausted, you are more likely to be influenced by a high number of likes on posts—even to the point of clicking on ads for products you don't need or want.
As a professor of advertising, I have studied social media behaviors for years. In late 2022, my colleague Eric Haley and I conducted three online studies on Americans aged 18—65 to test how people under various mental loads respond to ads differently.
The control group in each study were given no introductory task—we just had them look at an ad. A second group had to memorize a nine-digit number and then look at the ad. The third group looked through the Internet for 30 seconds and then looked at the ad. Participants randomly saw an ad with a few hundred likes or tens of thousands of likes. After viewing the ad, each participant rated how willing they would be to buy the product, and how much mental effort it took to think about the information.
The group that used the Internet first were the most likely to want to buy the featured product when there were lots of likes or comments, and they also reported using the most mental effort to assess the ad. Researchers refer to this mentally exhausted state as “cognitive (认知的) overload”. Using social media puts them in this state because they are constantly evaluating different types of texts, photos and video posts from so many different people. In the span of several seconds, they can see a text from their husband or wife, a photo from a co-worker, a video from a celebrity and an emoji from their brother. All of this evaluating leaves them feeling frazzled.
Imagine asking your roommate if they want to go get pizza. Under normal conditions, the roommate might consider several factors such as cost, hunger, timing or their schedule. Now imagine asking your roommate the same question while they are on the phone with a sick relative. They no longer have the mental energy to logically consider whether pizza for dinner is a good idea.
By understanding how social media influences them, consumers can be more thoughtful in regulating their use—and hopefully not buy yet another water bottle they don’t need.
12．Why did the author conduct three online studies on Americans aged 18-65
A. To investigate their online habits.
B. To test their reactions to advertisements.
C. To research what kind of advertising is effective.
D. To discover why people suffer great mental stress.
13．What docs paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the study
A. Its purpose. B. Its process.
C. Its finding. D. Its significance.
14．What does the underlined word “frazzled” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Interested. B. Depressed. C. Annoyed. D. Tired.
15．Why does the author mention “your roommate” in paragraph 5
A. To further explain cognitive overload.
B. To stress the importance of. relationships.
C. To strongly call on people to eat healthily.
D. To remind people not to rely on mobile phones.

六、读后续写
34．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。
The day I started working out with my personal trainer, Teresa, I told her that overall, I wanted to get in shape and get stronger. More specifically, I wanted to lose 10 pounds by swimsuit season.
“Good, you have both long-term and short-term goals,” Teresa said. “That will help keep you motivated.” Then she warned, “I’m going to push you pretty hard, Sue. And you’re going to have to push yourself, too.”
She had. And so had I. Yet here I was at the gym, months later, the same old Sue with the same weight. I looked in the mirror and said, “I’m still so fat. It’s too hard for me to lose 10 pounds.” 1 wasn’t feeling very motivated. “Let’s start with something different today,” Teresa said.
I thought she was going to show me a new exercise. Instead, she took something small and green out of her pocket. A rubber band（橡皮筋）. Teresa took my right arm and placed the band onto my wrist, a determined look on her face. “This will solve your problem,” she assured me. I didn’t mean to be rude, but I had to ask, “How is this rubber band going to help me get in shape ”
“Your weight is not your biggest problem,” Teresa said. “What’s really holding you back is that you’re always putting yourself down.” I knew that better.1 had grown up constantly comparing myself to others, and I fell short every time.
Teresa said she was tired of hearing all the negative words I directed at myself. “Your negative thinking is a bad habit, and it’s time to break it,” she declared. The plan was simple. Every time I thought or said something that put myself down, I was supposed to pull the rubber band—hard—and break free from that negative mindset.
I agreed to try the rubber band. Then I left the gym and drove home. A pile of mail was waiting. I looked through it. There was an official-looking letter from my bank, 1 tore open the envelope. It was an overdraft（透支的） notice. One of my checks had bounced because I’d been late putting money into the account. My cheeks burned when I saw it was the birthday check I had sent to my niece. I really messed up now! How could I be so stupid
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。
That was when I remembered what Teresa said I needed to do.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Seven days after trying the rubber band, I got ready for my appointment with my trainer.

②考查形容词。句意：厚手套可能是一个不错的选择，但有时戴上它并不方便，尤其是当人们想要用手做某事的时候。根据“is not”可知，空处需填形容词作表语，convenient作形容词，表示“方便的”，符合句意。故填convenient。
③考查定语从句。句意：然而，这对古代中国人来说不是问题，他们有一种工具可以让他们的手保持温暖：暖手炉。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，从句缺主语，先行词是“ancient Chinese people”，指人，故用关系代词who引导。故填who。

⑨考查非谓语动词。句意：这一时期的许多诗歌和书籍都记录了人们使用暖手器。分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语动词“recorded”，故空处需填非谓语动词，“people”和“use”之间是主动关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。故填using。
⑩考查冠词。句意：清代曹雪芹的经典小说《红楼梦》中，有一章里也有女仆给林黛玉送暖手炉的情节。根据“hand warmer”可知，空处需填冠词修饰名词，此处泛指“一个暖手炉”，用不定冠词，“hand”以辅音音素开头。故填a。
33．答案：
The Importance of Using Body Language Properly
A year ago, I participated in a speech competition organized by my school, and I consciously paid attention to my body language. For example, I demonstrated my confidence with firm steps while going on stage. During the speech, I used the posture of my arms and rich facial expressions to express the content vividly. After the speech, I bowed to express my deep gratitude.
My performance was praised by the judges, especially my proper body language. From this experience, I have realized the meaning conveyed by body language is sometimes much more than that conveyed by oral language.

34．答案： That was when I remembered what Teresa said I needed to do. I reached for that rubber band dangling from my wrist, pulled it back and let it fly. “Owwww!” I cried. That hurt. But didn’t my negative self-talk hurt even more I wondered just how much damage it had done over the years. An uncomfortable awareness settled over me. I decided to replace each negative thought with a positive one. I wrote out a new check for my niece and thought she would be happy that I remembered her birthday.
Seven days after trying the rubber band, I got ready for my appointment with my trainer. I looked in the mirror, and for the first time in ages, I was happy with the woman I saw looking back at me-she was holding her head high, and there was a sparkle in her eyes. She looked confident and strong. I smiled at my reflection. “Well done!” I said to myself and grabbed my gym bag. I couldn’t wait to see Teresa and tell her the good news-I’d lost three pounds this week, and more importantly, I’d gained a whole new outlook.

一、阅读理解
Four Top Ski Resorts (旅游胜地) in Michigan, USA
Ski Brule
In Michigan’s Upper Peninsula region sits Ski Brule, a family-friendly mountain resort offering skiing and snowboarding for all ages and abilities. The resort offers 17 ski runs and 11 lifts; the property sees 150 inches of snow each year, with snowmaking abilities as well. Ski Brule typically opens for the season in late November and remains open as long as there are good snow conditions (typically until mid-April).

Mount Bohemia is a Michigan ski resort reserved for advanced skiers only, with steep slopes (斜坡) and exposed rock formations. There are 585 skiable acres (英亩), featuring two chairlifts and a 900-foot drop. The Keweenaw Peninsula region receives an average of 273 inches of snow each year due to the area’s lake effect.
Marquette Mountain Resort
Marquette Mountain is a four-season day resort with views of Lake Superior. Unusual for a ski resort is its focus on art, demonstrated through installations like the “Guardians of the Hill”: giant sculptures positioned at the base of the mountain, made from old railroad parts and collectively weighing in at 5 tons.
Shanty Creek Resort
Set across 5,500 acres, Shanty Creek Resort includes four distinct villages open year-round for enjoyment in northern Michigan. If you’re competitive, Schuss Mountain hosts a variety of annual ski race events; Shanty Creek also hosts the White Pine Stampede, Michigan’s oldest and longest cross-country skiing race.

Adaptive clothing brand Befree was founded by Nikki Puzzo and Joanne DiCamillo, two Massachusetts mothers who saw a need for clothing for individuals with disabilities. The inspiration for the brand came from Puzzo’s daughter, Stella. She is an eighth-grader and leads an active lifestyle, participating in activities like swimming, gymnastics, and working out with a trainer.
When Stella had a surgery at the age of 5, she was left with casts on both legs and a bar between them, making it impossible for her to wear traditional pants. Stella had to wear dresses or long T-shirts during her three month recovery period, which was unbearable for her. Wanting to find a solution that would allow her daughter to wear pants, Puzzo took apart a pair of brightly colored pajama bottoms and sewed them in Velcro. This simple fix turned out to be a “game changer” for Stella.
Impressed by the pants, the doctor at Boston Children’s Hospital encouraged Puzzo to mass-produce them, as many parents often struggle with dressing their children with disabilities. This feedback from the doctor motivated Puzzo and DiCamillo to start Befree.
Their goal is for adaptive clothes to be commonly found in stores and sold alongside traditional clothing within the next five years. While Befree did raise funds through a crowdfunding campaign, the company is primarily self-funded. They have not sought outside investment yet.
DiCamillo emphasized that the market for adaptive clothing extended beyond children with disabilities and includes adults with disabilities and individuals recovering from surgeries. The team is currently working on expanding their product range to include leggings, shorts, joggers and even jeans. They have already received numerous requests for adult sizes.
Overall, Befree is a company founded by mothers who saw a need for adaptive clothing and took action to meet this demand. Their determination and innovation have resulted in a brand that aims to make dressing easier and more inclusive for individuals with disabilities. With their focus on expanding their product range and making adaptive clothing mainstream, Befree is prepared to have a significant impact on the fashion industry.

When wildfire smoke from huge fires in Canada blanketed the US in the summer of 2023, emergency rooms saw an increase in admissions for lung problems, heart attacks and other health issues.
Burning fossil fuels has driven climate change, and now climate change is costing people their health and increasingly their lives, says a new report from the medical journal The Lancet. The eighth annual Lancet Countdown, an international analysis that tracks nearly 50 different health-focused issues affected by climate change, calls for an immediate wind-down of fossil fuel use.
Those with the least historical responsibility for causing climate change are feeling the worst effects. Pakistan—a country responsible for roughly 0.3% of all climate-change-causing carbon emissions, suffered huge floods in 2022 that displaced more than 30 million people and killed at least 1,700. However, wealthier countries cannot be spared. In the US, wildfire smoke this summer sent people to the emergency room from New York to Georgia. In Europe, a 2022 summer heat wave resulted in over 60,000 deaths.
About one fifth of all US residents work outdoors; the percentages are even higher in many other countries. When it gets too hot, it gets harder and harder to work. Last year, the report says, outdoor workers lost more than 140 hours each — or several weeks of pay — because of the intense heat.
The human and economic costs are forecast to grow with every tenth of a degree hotter the planet gets. Heat-related deaths, for example, could increase by nearly five times by the middle of the century, if without immediate reductions to carbon emissions.
“I have a young patient who presents with uncontrollable asthma. She lives right next to a highway and is breathing in harmful air from cars burning gas,” Renee Salas, a doctor at Harvard’s Chan School of Public Health says. “So the treatment she needs is electric vehicles, home weatherization and air purification. These are prescriptions I can’t write.”
8．What can be learned from paragraph 3
A. The wildfire has burned large areas of forest.
B. Pakistan is largely responsible for climate change.
C. Climate change has caused a lot of human deaths.
D. People in wealthier countries have good health care.
9．Which statement will the author probably agree with
A. American residents worked very hard last year.
B. There is nothing people can do about climate change.
C. The economy has also been affected by climate change.
D. Heat-related deaths will double by the middle of the century.
10．What docs Renee Salas imply in the last paragraph
A. She advocates green lifestyle.
B. She prefers to drive an electric car to work.
C. Young people are more likely to get asthma.
D. Hospitals are short of medicines to treat asthma.
11．What is the text mainly about
A. The advantage of living in the US. B. The cause of climate change.
C. The stress of working outdoors. D. The harm of climate change.
Social media can lead to mental exhaustion (疲惫). And when mentally exhausted, you are more likely to be influenced by a high number of likes on posts—even to the point of clicking on ads for products you don't need or want.
As a professor of advertising, I have studied social media behaviors for years. In late 2022, my colleague Eric Haley and I conducted three online studies on Americans aged 18—65 to test how people under various mental loads respond to ads differently.
The control group in each study were given no introductory task—we just had them look at an ad. A second group had to memorize a nine-digit number and then look at the ad. The third group looked through the Internet for 30 seconds and then looked at the ad. Participants randomly saw an ad with a few hundred likes or tens of thousands of likes. After viewing the ad, each participant rated how willing they would be to buy the product, and how much mental effort it took to think about the information.
The group that used the Internet first were the most likely to want to buy the featured product when there were lots of likes or comments, and they also reported using the most mental effort to assess the ad. Researchers refer to this mentally exhausted state as “cognitive (认知的) overload”. Using social media puts them in this state because they are constantly evaluating different types of texts, photos and video posts from so many different people. In the span of several seconds, they can see a text from their husband or wife, a photo from a co-worker, a video from a celebrity and an emoji from their brother. All of this evaluating leaves them feeling frazzled.
Imagine asking your roommate if they want to go get pizza. Under normal conditions, the roommate might consider several factors such as cost, hunger, timing or their schedule. Now imagine asking your roommate the same question while they are on the phone with a sick relative. They no longer have the mental energy to logically consider whether pizza for dinner is a good idea.
By understanding how social media influences them, consumers can be more thoughtful in regulating their use—and hopefully not buy yet another water bottle they don’t need.
12．Why did the author conduct three online studies on Americans aged 18-65
A. To investigate their online habits.
B. To test their reactions to advertisements.
C. To research what kind of advertising is effective.
D. To discover why people suffer great mental stress.
13．What docs paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the study
A. Its purpose. B. Its process.
C. Its finding. D. Its significance.
14．What does the underlined word “frazzled” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Interested. B. Depressed. C. Annoyed. D. Tired.
15．Why does the author mention “your roommate” in paragraph 5
A. To further explain cognitive overload.
B. To stress the importance of. relationships.
C. To strongly call on people to eat healthily.
D. To remind people not to rely on mobile phones.

34．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。
The day I started working out with my personal trainer, Teresa, I told her that overall, I wanted to get in shape and get stronger. More specifically, I wanted to lose 10 pounds by swimsuit season.
“Good, you have both long-term and short-term goals,” Teresa said. “That will help keep you motivated.” Then she warned, “I’m going to push you pretty hard, Sue. And you’re going to have to push yourself, too.”
She had. And so had I. Yet here I was at the gym, months later, the same old Sue with the same weight. I looked in the mirror and said, “I’m still so fat. It’s too hard for me to lose 10 pounds.” 1 wasn’t feeling very motivated. “Let’s start with something different today,” Teresa said.
I thought she was going to show me a new exercise. Instead, she took something small and green out of her pocket. A rubber band（橡皮筋）. Teresa took my right arm and placed the band onto my wrist, a determined look on her face. “This will solve your problem,” she assured me. I didn’t mean to be rude, but I had to ask, “How is this rubber band going to help me get in shape ”
“Your weight is not your biggest problem,” Teresa said. “What’s really holding you back is that you’re always putting yourself down.” I knew that better.1 had grown up constantly comparing myself to others, and I fell short every time.
Teresa said she was tired of hearing all the negative words I directed at myself. “Your negative thinking is a bad habit, and it’s time to break it,” she declared. The plan was simple. Every time I thought or said something that put myself down, I was supposed to pull the rubber band—hard—and break free from that negative mindset.
I agreed to try the rubber band. Then I left the gym and drove home. A pile of mail was waiting. I looked through it. There was an official-looking letter from my bank, 1 tore open the envelope. It was an overdraft（透支的） notice. One of my checks had bounced because I’d been late putting money into the account. My cheeks burned when I saw it was the birthday check I had sent to my niece. I really messed up now! How could I be so stupid

33．答案：
The Importance of Using Body Language Properly
A year ago, I participated in a speech competition organized by my school, and I consciously paid attention to my body language. For example, I demonstrated my confidence with firm steps while going on stage. During the speech, I used the posture of my arms and rich facial expressions to express the content vividly. After the speech, I bowed to express my deep gratitude.
My performance was praised by the judges, especially my proper body language. From this experience, I have realized the meaning conveyed by body language is sometimes much more than that conveyed by oral language.

34．答案： That was when I remembered what Teresa said I needed to do. I reached for that rubber band dangling from my wrist, pulled it back and let it fly. “Owwww!” I cried. That hurt. But didn’t my negative self-talk hurt even more I wondered just how much damage it had done over the years. An uncomfortable awareness settled over me. I decided to replace each negative thought with a positive one. I wrote out a new check for my niece and thought she would be happy that I remembered her birthday.
Seven days after trying the rubber band, I got ready for my appointment with my trainer. I looked in the mirror, and for the first time in ages, I was happy with the woman I saw looking back at me-she was holding her head high, and there was a sparkle in her eyes. She looked confident and strong. I smiled at my reflection. “Well done!” I said to myself and grabbed my gym bag. I couldn’t wait to see Teresa and tell her the good news-I’d lost three pounds this week, and more importantly, I’d gained a whole new outlook.
