Across the world, humans purchase around 1.3 billion single-use plastic water bottles a day. Because only about 9% of plastic is recycled, the vast majority of those bottles wind up in landfills, the ocean, or elsewhere in nature.
When beach-loving Madison noticed those plastic bottles during her family’s trips to California, the 12-year-old “just felt like this needed to change,” she told Smithsonian Magazine.
So as she began thinking about what to do for her school science fair back in 2021, the idea of a project centered on reducing plastic pollution quickly came to her mind: she would design an eatable water bottle called the Eco-Hero.
“One of my biggest ambitions for my project was wanting to help the world,” the confident young inventor said in a video on the website.
To bring her idea to life, Madison built upon the already established method by experimenting with common food materials. She also took inspiration from previous versions of eatable water bottles, though she focused on making hers bigger and more durable. She found that the combination of water, lemon juice, natural gum, and Alginic acid (褐藻酸) resulted in a gel pouch that wouldn’t break, could hold up to 3/4 cup of water, and would last in the fridge for three weeks.
Though she’d like to improve the Eco-Hero by making it able to hold more water, she believes her current version would work well as a replacement for the paper cups used by runners in races. All one needs to do is bite a hole in the water ball, drink the water, and then eat the pouch or throw it away to biodegrade.
Madison hopes the Eco-Hero inspires others to take better care of the planet. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be in a big way,” she told Smithsonian. “People can still make a difference in the world, even if it’s just in a small way.”
24. What inspired Madison’s design of an eatable water bottle
A. Her school’s task. B. Her family’s urge.
C. Her love for ecology. D. Her trips to the beach.
25. What can we know about the Eco-Hero
A. It is a copy of the previous versions.
B. It is made from unbreakable materials.
C. It is an improvement in size and durability.
D. It has a hole and should be disposed once used.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Madison
A. Ambitious and creative. B. Talented and determined.
C. Courageous and confident. D. Cooperative and committed.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. A good beginning is half done. B. Small people make big moves.
C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. God helps those who help themselves.
B【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了12岁的女孩Madison为了解决塑料瓶污染的问题,发明了可食用的水瓶。
24. 细节理解题。根据第二段“When beach-loving Madison noticed those plastic bottles during her family’s trips to California, the 12-year-old ‘just felt like this needed to change,’ she told Smithsonian Magazine.(当热爱海滩的Madison在加利福尼亚的家庭旅行中注意到这些塑料瓶时,这位12岁的女孩‘觉得这需要改变’,她告诉《史密森尼杂志》)”可知,Madison在加利福尼亚的家庭旅行中发现海滩上有塑料瓶,这让她产生了设计可食用水瓶的想法。故选D。
25. 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“She also took inspiration from previous versions of eatable water bottles, though she focused on making hers bigger and more durable.(她还从以前的可食水瓶中获得了灵感,不过她专注于让自己的水瓶更大、更耐用)”可知,她设计的水瓶在体积和耐用性上有了改善。故选C。
26. 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“To bring her idea to life, Madison built upon the already established method by experimenting with common food materials. She also took inspiration from previous versions of eatable water bottles, though she focused on making hers bigger and more durable.(为了将她的想法付诸实践,Madison在已经建立的方法的基础上,对常见的食物材料进行了实验。她还从以前的可食水瓶中获得了灵感,不过她专注于让自己的水瓶更大、更耐用)”可推测出,Madison根据已经建立的方法和从以前的可食用水瓶中获得的灵感,通过实验设计出了更大、更耐用的水瓶,由此可推测出,她是一个有创造力的(creative)人。根据第四段“‘One of my biggest ambitions for my project was wanting to help the world,’ the confident young inventor said in a video on the website.(这位自信的年轻发明家在网站上的一段视频中说:‘我对这个项目最大的抱负之一是想帮助世界。’)”可知,她有帮助世界的抱负,由此可推测出,她是一个有抱负的(ambitious)人。故选A。
27. 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段中Madison的话“It doesn’t necessarily have to be in a big way(这不一定要很大)”和“People can still make a difference in the world, even if it’s just in a small way.(人们仍然可以在世界上有所作为,即使只是在很小的方面)”可知,年仅12岁的女孩Madison设计出了可食用的水瓶,用自己的方式帮助保护环境,她认为人们不一定要做出非常大的成就,小事情也能有重要影响,所以B项“小人物也能有大成就”适合作本文标题。故选B。
C
There’s an enormous amount of personal health information people now feed or tap into digital monitors, health apps, search engines and other online tools. If the same information were provided in your doctor’s office, your privacy would be safeguarded. But that’s not how the digitized health world works.
Instead, we have an ecosystem of abuse in which health technology companies operate largely outside the law that requires doctors and other medical personnel, hospitals and insurers to protect an individual’s health information.
That means technology companies can—and do—dig your digital data for clues about your health status, accessing information like prescriptions you have purchased and other health services you might have sought, and potentially link this information to your name, address, email address and other personally identifying information. The data can then be used by platforms including Facebook and Google to help advertisers target promotions or other communications to you.
It’s a gaping hole in health privacy protections that comes from the privacy law, which protects interactions between patients, medical professionals and insurers but does not, in most cases, protect patient health data that is recorded on new technologies.
Closing the patient privacy gap can—and should—be a priority for lawmakers. The consequences of digital exposure for those seeking reproductive services have drawn significant concern and attention. These worries are reasonable. But reproductive care is only one area of health services where private patient information is digitally disclosed.
Therefore, lawmakers must take action to protect the privacy of people who are now online for all manners of personal, professional and other reasons. Until then, a narrowly targeted approach that protects health privacy may be politically easier to come into effect. The explosion of digital health technology and the dramatic increase in its use in the past few years require it greatly.
28. What can we learn about the present situation of the digitized health world
A. Personal health data is used for other purposes.
B. Personal health information is difficult to identify.
C. Targeted promotions are used to improve people’s health.
D. Medical personnel protect the personal health information well.
29. What’s the author’s attitude towards the present privacy law
A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Cautious. D. Ambiguous.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to
A. The spread of health service. B. People’s privacy.
C. A narrowly targeted approach. D. The explosion of digital technology.
31. What is the purpose of the text
A. To advocate improvement in the privacy law.
B. To report cases of illegal information exposure.
C. To explain how the digitized health world works.
D. To introduce a debate on the effect of technology.
C【答案】 ABCA
导语: 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕数字化健康世界中个人隐私保护的问题展开论述,分析了当前健康技术公司在处理个人健康信息时存在的法律漏洞和滥用现象,并强调了立法者需要采取行动来保护个人隐私的重要性。
28.细节理解题。根据文章第二段"Instead, we have an ecosystem of abuse in which health technology companies operate largely outside the law that requires doctors and other medical personnel,hospitals and insurers to protect an individual's health information.(相反,我们有一个滥用的生态系统,在这个生态系统中,医疗技术公司在很大程度上违反了要求医生和其他医务人员、医院和保险公司保护个人健康信息的法律)”以及第三段“That means technology companies can - and do —dig your digital data for clues about your health status, accessing information like prescriptions you have purchased and other health services you might have sought, and potentially link this information to your name, address and email address。1 other personally identifying information. The data can then be used by platforms including Facebook and Google to help advertisers target promotions or other communications to you.(这意味着科技公司可以——
也确实做到了——挖掘你的数字数据,寻找你健康状况的线索,获取你购买的处方和你可能寻求的其他健康服务等信息,并可能将这些信息与你的姓名、地址、电子邮件地址和其他个人身份信息联系起来。然后,这些数据可以被包括Facebook和谷歌在内的平台使用,以帮助广告商向你定向促销或其他通信)"可知,现在我们的个人健康信息没有得到应有的保护,反而这些数据被包括Facebook和谷歌在内的平台使用,以帮助广告商向你定向促销或其他通信。故选A。
29.推理判断题。根据文章第四段“It's a gaping hole in health privacy protections that comes from the privacy law,which protects interactions between patients, medical professionals and insurers but does not, in most cases, protect patient health data that is recorded on new technologies.(这是来自隐私法的健康隐私保护的一个巨大漏洞,隐私法保护患者,医疗专业人员和保险公司之间的互动,但在大多数情况下,不保护记录在新技术上的患者健康数据)"可知,作者认为现行的隐私法存在巨大漏洞。由此推知,他对现行隐私法是批评的。故选B。
30.词义猜测题。根据划线单词上一句"Until then, a narrowly targeted approach that protects health privacy may be politically easier to come into effect.(在此之前,保护健康隐私的针对性较窄的方法在政治上可能更容易生效)"”以及划线单词上文“The explosion of digital health technology and the dramatic increase in its use in the past few years require it greatly.(数字医疗技术的爆炸式增长及其使用在过去几年中急剧增加,对它提出了极大的要求)"'可推测,划线词it指的是上文提到的“targeted approach”。故选C。
31.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Therefore, lawmakers must take action to protect the privacy of people who are now online for all manners of personal, professional and other reasons. Until then, a narrowly targeted approach that protects health privacy may be politically easier to come into effect. The explosion of digital health technology and the dramatic increase in its use in the past few years require it greatly.(因此,立法者必须采取行动,保护那些出于个人、职业和其他原因上网的人的隐私。在此之前,保护健康隐私的针对性较窄的方法在政治上可能更容易生效。数字医疗技术的爆炸式增长及其使用在过去几年中急剧增加,对它提出了极大的要求)"”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讨论了数字化健康世界中个人隐私保护的问题,特别指出了当前隐私法存在的漏洞以及健康技术公司如何滥用个人健康信息。作者强调了这一问题的严重性,并呼吁立法者采取行动来弥补这一漏洞,保护个人隐私。由此推知,文章的目的是倡导改进隐私法,以确保个人健康信息得到妥善保护。故选A。

Scientists have discovered how plants manage to live alongside each other in places that are dark and shady. Plants in the deep darkness of a thick forest, where natural supplies are not very great in amount, won’t attempt to top their neighbors in growth as those in moderate shade do. In deep shade conditions, it would be a waste of energy and harmful to survival because green shoots would never be able to top their larger neighbors in growth.
So how do plants prevent such growth in deep shade conditions The secret lies in the clocks inside them, say scientists from the John Innes Centre and the University of Bristol.
They have discovered that when plants notice deep shade, this changes the expression of genes in certain parts of the circadian clock (昼夜节律时钟) — the internal daily timer found in plants and other living things. These clock components perform an additional role in preventing plants from lengthening and over topping neighbors.
The work identifies a previously unknown role of the circadian clock in controlling plant development, and the findings may have possible effects on both natural plant populations and crops. Professor Antony Dodd of the John Innes Centre said, “The biological clock of plants plays a big part in their development and fitness. This work casts new light on a new role of the circadian clock in adapting plants to competition with other plants in their environments.” “It also gives us new insights into how plants adapt to very deep shade, where resources are very limited,” said Professor Kerry Franklin at the University of Bristol.
This work provides evidence for the stability of the circadian clock in stressful environments, and information that may be useful in developing new generations of crops in a challenging climate.
32. What do plants normally do in moderate shade
A. Struggle to preserve energy. B. Compete for very limited resources.
C. Try to outgrow their neighbors. D. Depend on each other to survive.
33. How does the circadian clock affect plants
A. By changing their gene expression.
B. By making them realize light change.
C. By helping them adapt to the darkness.
D. By controlling their growth in deep shade.
34. According to Professor Antony Dodd, which statement is TRUE
A. The circadian clock’s role in plant development remains unknown.
B. Plants’ living environments are very competitive.
C. The circadian clock affects plants’ adaptability to survival competition.
D. Plants can adapt to very deep shade where resources are very limited.
35. Why does the author write the text
A. To share a new discovery about plants.
B. To introduce the role of the circadian clock.
C. To compare plants living in certain conditions.
D. To explain plants’ secret of living in forests.

第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most of the time, we human beings are so unwilling to change that we completely ignore its beauty. I don’t get it, why 36 I believe change is the most beautiful thing an individual can seek after.
As people connect changes with something beneficial, we all claim to believe in change being good, yet so many of us aggressively oppose it. And why Because of familiarity. 37 Even for those of us who say we love change, it’s hard to accept and adapt.
However, sometimes change can be a frightening thing. There’s no denying that life is unpredictable and more often than not, we’re forced to make a change we didn’t really prepare for or expect. We lose jobs, we lose people, we move to another country or we find ourselves in unfavorable circumstances that we weren’t taught how to handle. 38
Life is full of unavoidable changes. How can you develop personally and expect to stay in the same place 39 When you start growing, you’ll notice changes in your surroundings. You’ll notice changes in your friends’ group. You’ll notice changes even in your preferences. Nothing stays the same if you want to grow as an individual.
Even though change may be painful and so hard sometimes, it’s still better than the pain of feeling powerless as you watch your dreams pass you by. Don’t be afraid of change. Embrace it with open arms. 40 I genuinely believe that life is too short to stay in the same place or in the same rigid mindset!
A. Not everyone can accompany you.
B. Where there’s growth, there’s change.
C. Change can be scary but it can also be beautiful.
D. That’s not the only reasons you embrace changes.
E. Look forward to new experiences and learn from those new stories.
F. These things force you to change what you weren’t ready to change.
G. Sometimes we’re convinced that knowing something well means it’s right.

I don’t get it, why (大多数时候,我们人类是如此不愿意改变,以至于我们完全忽略了它的美丽。我不明白,为什么?)”及下文“I believe change is the most beautiful thing an individual can seek after.(我相信改变是一个人所能追求的最美好的东西)”可知,C项“Change can be scary but it can also be beautiful.(改变可能是可怕的,但也可能是美好的)”能够承上启下,其中scary与上文的unwilling相呼应,而beautiful又与下文的the most beautiful thing相呼应。故选C项。
【37题详解】根据前文“As people connect changes with something beneficial, we all claim to believe in change being good, yet so many of us aggressively oppose it. And why Because of familiarity.(当人们将变化与有益的事物联系起来时,我们都声称相信变化是好的,然而我们中的许多人却强烈地反对它。为什么?因为熟悉)”可知,G项“Sometimes we’re convinced that knowing something well means it’s right.(有时候,我们相信了解一些事情就意味着它是正确的)”是对前文的进一步解释,符合文意。故选G项。
【38题详解】分析设空,位于段尾,是对前文的总结,根据前文“However, sometimes change can be a frightening thing. There’s no denying that life is unpredictable and more often than not, we’re forced to make a change we didn’t really prepare for or expect. We lose jobs, we lose people, we move to another country or we find ourselves in unfavorable circumstances that we weren’t taught how to handle.(然而,有时改变可能是一件可怕的事情。不可否认,生活是不可预测的,而且往往我们被迫做出一些我们没有真正准备或期望的改变。我们失去工作,我们失去员工,我们搬到另一个国家,或者我们发现自己处于不利的环境中,我们没有被教导如何处理)”可知,F项“These things force you to change what you weren’t ready to change.(这些事情迫使你改变你还没有准备好改变的东西)”是对前文的总结。故选F项。

【40题详解】根据前文“Don’t be afraid of change. Embrace (拥抱) it with open arms.(不要害怕改变。张开双臂拥抱它)”以及后文“I genuinely believe that life is too short to stay in the same place or in the same rigid mindset!(我真诚地相信,生命太短暂,不能停留在同一个地方或一成不变的心态!)”可知,此处是对前文进行总结,所以E项“Look forward to new experiences and learn from those new stories.(期待新的经历,从新的故事中学习)”是总结性的句子,且承接上文,符合文意。故选E项。

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。
Emily White was born seventeen years ago with so many birth problems in her body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it but with her strange body figure, everyone could recognize her, even from a distance.
In Emily White’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (大礼堂). It had been performed for so many years and actually had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the town’s people.
Many people tried out each year for it, but so many were turned away. It can only include the most excellent people in the field.
Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year she went to Mrs. Owens – her music teacher to ask to join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Amy’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable, too.”
Without singing a single note, Emily was sent back through the door of the choral room. Hurt and upset, she decided never to try out again. But Mrs. Owens then retired.
This year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Buttler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try.
Emily didn’t want to be rejected again, so she hesitated a little about it. As Emily struggled, the door was pushed open and Mr. Buttler called, “Emily, you’re next.” Although kind of nervous, Emily did as Mr. Buttler told her to do. Mr. Buttler sat by the piano to keep Emily company. When Emily finished her testing performance, she thanked Mr. Buttler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day.
Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was suffering from the feelings that she didn’t fit and the great need to be accepted. By the next morning, her stomach was even in pain because of stress.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段, 每段的开头语已为你写好。
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room.
Finally, the day of performance came.
续写范文:
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. Beyond her expectations, on top of the list was her name! Overjoyed but doubtful, she pinched her hand hard only to find she wasn’t daydreaming. Then out of the room walked Mr. Buttler, whose eyes brimmed with smiles. “Emily, we had another good news for you.” he said in a mysterious voice. The little girl looked at him in confusion. “We choose you to be the lead singer. Do you believe in yourself ” Mr. Buttler asked eagerly. Greatly encouraged, Emily nodded determinedly and promised to practice hard for the performance.
Finally, the day of performance came. Upon appearing on the stage, she was greeted with scornful eyes and even sneering. But as calm as a millpond, she began to sing her heart out. Who knew how many such situations she had come across She was really used to it. When she finished her song, there was a moment of silence, stillness, as if the world was holding its breath. Suddenly, thunderous applause broke out. Mr. Butter was so moved that he almost staggered to Emily and gave her a tight hug. It was then that he knew that Emily did survive from inferiority with her confidence.《2024年高考英语二轮复习增分必刷题》

A
Whether you are a fine art lover or history enthusiast, there are some museums that you should visit in your lifetime. Here’s a list of the best museums in the world.
LE LOUVRE, PARIS
A visit to the Louvre lets visitors discover ancient civilizations and Western art from the Middle Ages to 1848. The palace of the museum, dating back to the twelfth century and developed by architects from 1200 to 2011, is a lesson in architecture. The most famous art work is Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa”.
THE UFFIZI GALLERIES, FLORENCE
The museum occupies a large building constructed between 1560 and 1580. It’s famous for its outstanding collections of ancient sculptures and paintings from the Middle Ages to the Modern period, and mainly known for its paintings by Italian artists.
THE BRITISH MUSEUM, LONDON
As the first national museum to cover all fields of human knowledge, it was founded in 1753 and opened its doors in 1759. Its eight million objects allow us to explore the diversity of human cultures, and discover the expressions in human being’s life. It boasts the world’s second finest collection of Egyptian antiques.
THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART, NEW YORK
Also known as “the Met”, it’s the largest art museum in the America. Presenting over 5, 000 years of art from around the world, the museum lives in two sites in New York: The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Cloisters. Since its founding in 1870, it has been a treasury of rare and beautiful objects, ranging from European paintings, Egyptian collections to American paintings.
Which museum is best known for ancient statues in the Middle Ages
A. The Louvre. B. The Uffizi Galleries.
C. The British Museum. D. The Metropolitan Museum.
22. What can visitors enjoy in both the British Museum and the Met
A. Art works from Egypt. B. Expressions around the world.
C. Rare objects of human culture. D. Paintings from Europe and America.

A. An introduction to arts. B. An essay on architecture.
C. A guidebook to museums. D. A review of Egyptian paintings.
B
Across the world, humans purchase around 1.3 billion single-use plastic water bottles a day. Because only about 9% of plastic is recycled, the vast majority of those bottles wind up in landfills, the ocean, or elsewhere in nature.
When beach-loving Madison noticed those plastic bottles during her family’s trips to California, the 12-year-old “just felt like this needed to change,” she told Smithsonian Magazine.
So as she began thinking about what to do for her school science fair back in 2021, the idea of a project centered on reducing plastic pollution quickly came to her mind: she would design an eatable water bottle called the Eco-Hero.
“One of my biggest ambitions for my project was wanting to help the world,” the confident young inventor said in a video on the website.
To bring her idea to life, Madison built upon the already established method by experimenting with common food materials. She also took inspiration from previous versions of eatable water bottles, though she focused on making hers bigger and more durable. She found that the combination of water, lemon juice, natural gum, and Alginic acid (褐藻酸) resulted in a gel pouch that wouldn’t break, could hold up to 3/4 cup of water, and would last in the fridge for three weeks.
Though she’d like to improve the Eco-Hero by making it able to hold more water, she believes her current version would work well as a replacement for the paper cups used by runners in races. All one needs to do is bite a hole in the water ball, drink the water, and then eat the pouch or throw it away to biodegrade.
Madison hopes the Eco-Hero inspires others to take better care of the planet. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be in a big way,” she told Smithsonian. “People can still make a difference in the world, even if it’s just in a small way.”
24. What inspired Madison’s design of an eatable water bottle
A. Her school’s task. B. Her family’s urge.
C. Her love for ecology. D. Her trips to the beach.
25. What can we know about the Eco-Hero
A. It is a copy of the previous versions.
B. It is made from unbreakable materials.
C. It is an improvement in size and durability.
D. It has a hole and should be disposed once used.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Madison
A. Ambitious and creative. B. Talented and determined.
C. Courageous and confident. D. Cooperative and committed.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. A good beginning is half done. B. Small people make big moves.
C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. God helps those who help themselves.

There’s an enormous amount of personal health information people now feed or tap into digital monitors, health apps, search engines and other online tools. If the same information were provided in your doctor’s office, your privacy would be safeguarded. But that’s not how the digitized health world works.
Instead, we have an ecosystem of abuse in which health technology companies operate largely outside the law that requires doctors and other medical personnel, hospitals and insurers to protect an individual’s health information.
That means technology companies can—and do—dig your digital data for clues about your health status, accessing information like prescriptions you have purchased and other health services you might have sought, and potentially link this information to your name, address, email address and other personally identifying information. The data can then be used by platforms including Facebook and Google to help advertisers target promotions or other communications to you.
It’s a gaping hole in health privacy protections that comes from the privacy law, which protects interactions between patients, medical professionals and insurers but does not, in most cases, protect patient health data that is recorded on new technologies.
Closing the patient privacy gap can—and should—be a priority for lawmakers. The consequences of digital exposure for those seeking reproductive services have drawn significant concern and attention. These worries are reasonable. But reproductive care is only one area of health services where private patient information is digitally disclosed.
Therefore, lawmakers must take action to protect the privacy of people who are now online for all manners of personal, professional and other reasons. Until then, a narrowly targeted approach that protects health privacy may be politically easier to come into effect. The explosion of digital health technology and the dramatic increase in its use in the past few years require it greatly.
28. What can we learn about the present situation of the digitized health world
A. Personal health data is used for other purposes.
B. Personal health information is difficult to identify.
C. Targeted promotions are used to improve people’s health.
D. Medical personnel protect the personal health information well.
29. What’s the author’s attitude towards the present privacy law
A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Cautious. D. Ambiguous.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to
A. The spread of health service. B. People’s privacy.
C. A narrowly targeted approach. D. The explosion of digital technology.
31. What is the purpose of the text
A. To advocate improvement in the privacy law.
B. To report cases of illegal information exposure.
C. To explain how the digitized health world works.
D. To introduce a debate on the effect of technology.
D
Scientists have discovered how plants manage to live alongside each other in places that are dark and shady. Plants in the deep darkness of a thick forest, where natural supplies are not very great in amount, won’t attempt to top their neighbors in growth as those in moderate shade do. In deep shade conditions, it would be a waste of energy and harmful to survival because green shoots would never be able to top their larger neighbors in growth.
So how do plants prevent such growth in deep shade conditions The secret lies in the clocks inside them, say scientists from the John Innes Centre and the University of Bristol.
They have discovered that when plants notice deep shade, this changes the expression of genes in certain parts of the circadian clock (昼夜节律时钟) — the internal daily timer found in plants and other living things. These clock components perform an additional role in preventing plants from lengthening and over topping neighbors.
The work identifies a previously unknown role of the circadian clock in controlling plant development, and the findings may have possible effects on both natural plant populations and crops. Professor Antony Dodd of the John Innes Centre said, “The biological clock of plants plays a big part in their development and fitness. This work casts new light on a new role of the circadian clock in adapting plants to competition with other plants in their environments.” “It also gives us new insights into how plants adapt to very deep shade, where resources are very limited,” said Professor Kerry Franklin at the University of Bristol.
This work provides evidence for the stability of the circadian clock in stressful environments, and information that may be useful in developing new generations of crops in a challenging climate.
32. What do plants normally do in moderate shade
A. Struggle to preserve energy. B. Compete for very limited resources.
C. Try to outgrow their neighbors. D. Depend on each other to survive.
33. How does the circadian clock affect plants
A. By changing their gene expression.
B. By making them realize light change.
C. By helping them adapt to the darkness.
D. By controlling their growth in deep shade.
34. According to Professor Antony Dodd, which statement is TRUE
A. The circadian clock’s role in plant development remains unknown.
B. Plants’ living environments are very competitive.
C. The circadian clock affects plants’ adaptability to survival competition.
D. Plants can adapt to very deep shade where resources are very limited.
35. Why does the author write the text
A. To share a new discovery about plants.
B. To introduce the role of the circadian clock.
C. To compare plants living in certain conditions.
D. To explain plants’ secret of living in forests.

Most of the time, we human beings are so unwilling to change that we completely ignore its beauty. I don’t get it, why 36 I believe change is the most beautiful thing an individual can seek after.
As people connect changes with something beneficial, we all claim to believe in change being good, yet so many of us aggressively oppose it. And why Because of familiarity. 37 Even for those of us who say we love change, it’s hard to accept and adapt.
However, sometimes change can be a frightening thing. There’s no denying that life is unpredictable and more often than not, we’re forced to make a change we didn’t really prepare for or expect. We lose jobs, we lose people, we move to another country or we find ourselves in unfavorable circumstances that we weren’t taught how to handle. 38
Life is full of unavoidable changes. How can you develop personally and expect to stay in the same place 39 When you start growing, you’ll notice changes in your surroundings. You’ll notice changes in your friends’ group. You’ll notice changes even in your preferences. Nothing stays the same if you want to grow as an individual.
Even though change may be painful and so hard sometimes, it’s still better than the pain of feeling powerless as you watch your dreams pass you by. Don’t be afraid of change. Embrace it with open arms. 40 I genuinely believe that life is too short to stay in the same place or in the same rigid mindset!
A. Not everyone can accompany you.
B. Where there’s growth, there’s change.
C. Change can be scary but it can also be beautiful.
D. That’s not the only reasons you embrace changes.
E. Look forward to new experiences and learn from those new stories.
F. These things force you to change what you weren’t ready to change.
G. Sometimes we’re convinced that knowing something well means it’s right.

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。
Emily White was born seventeen years ago with so many birth problems in her body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it but with her strange body figure, everyone could recognize her, even from a distance.
In Emily White’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (大礼堂). It had been performed for so many years and actually had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the town’s people.
Many people tried out each year for it, but so many were turned away. It can only include the most excellent people in the field.
Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year she went to Mrs. Owens – her music teacher to ask to join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Amy’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable, too.”
Without singing a single note, Emily was sent back through the door of the choral room. Hurt and upset, she decided never to try out again. But Mrs. Owens then retired.
This year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Buttler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try.
Emily didn’t want to be rejected again, so she hesitated a little about it. As Emily struggled, the door was pushed open and Mr. Buttler called, “Emily, you’re next.” Although kind of nervous, Emily did as Mr. Buttler told her to do. Mr. Buttler sat by the piano to keep Emily company. When Emily finished her testing performance, she thanked Mr. Buttler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day.
Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was suffering from the feelings that she didn’t fit and the great need to be accepted. By the next morning, her stomach was even in pain because of stress.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段, 每段的开头语已为你写好。
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room.
Finally, the day of performance came.
