预测1(2024·湖南长郡中学模拟)
Growing up in Kenya, Lesein Mutunkei, together with his family, always celebrated significant occasions by planting trees, which motivated him to protect the environment. It’s what the now 18-year-old soccer player treasures, especially since Kenya has an ongoing problem with deforestation.
Mutunkei follows in the footsteps of the late Kenyan Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai who founded the Green Belt Movement in 1977. This initiative has resulted in the planting of over 51 million trees to date.
In 2018, Lesein decided to start a movement of his own. He started by planting one tree for every goal he
scored during a football match. He called it Trees4Goals, and it has grown so much that he now plants 11 trees, one for each member of his team, every time he scores. Through this, he wants to inspire young people, specifically his fellow athletes, to follow in his footsteps, take nature conservation seriously, and promise to plant trees every time they score. As a result, some of them have adapted this practice for their sports. “Seeing that they’re taking that responsibility because of the project I started, for me, that is the biggest achievement,” he said.
1.What made Lesein get interested in environmental protection
A.The influence of his family.
B.Wangari Maathai’s huge assistances.

(他希望借此激励年轻人,特别是他的运动员同伴,跟随他的脚步,认真对待自然保护,并承诺每次得分都要植树)”可知,Lesein发起“一球一树运动”是作出表率来激励他人保护环境。故选B。

Sweat slips down my cheek as I glide (滑动) my fingers through the cool water. I’ve reached the turnaround point of the day’s kayaking (皮划艇) trip. I attempt a shoulder stretch and look around. It’s just me, a couple of seabirds, and shining freshwater to the horizon. This, I whisper to myself, is awesome.
Solo (独自的) outings had never crossed my mind before because I always had a friend with me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city was tough.
In October 2020, I decided to take adventure on a solo hiking trip. I went to Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) to admire the autumn leaves. Four miles in, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so alive. I was more
aware of my surroundings than I’d ever been while hiking that day. I studied the markings of trees, focused my ears on each forest sound and did something I almost never made time for: I listened to my own thoughts. Every word bubble in my mind pointed to a newfound truth-solo hiking is my happy place.
When spring arrived, I decided to check off another solo sport: kayaking. My chest, initially tightened by nerves, was bursting with happiness when I finally reached the middle of the river that I’d long admired back on shore.
Since that first solo hiking, adventuring alone has become like medicine for me. It has also pushed me to go beyond my comfort zone and to meet new people. Through meetups and social media, my adventure-friend circle has ballooned. But at least once per month, I schedule time to hit nature with my favorite friend: me.
1.What pushed the author to start going on solo outings
A.A longing for a peaceful life.
B.A desire to challenge herself.
C.Living close to a national park.
D.Difficulty in finding companions.
2.What did the author do during her first solo hiking trip in CVNP
A.She explored a new route for hiking.
B.She paid attention to her inner voice.
C.She collected a variety of autumn leaves.
D.She recorded the forest sounds on her phone.
3.How did the author feel after her first kayaking trip
A.Surprised. B.Delighted. C.Nervous. D.Lonely.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.B
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者以前从未尝试过独自出门旅行,因为总有人陪伴她。后来作者决定独自去徒步旅行。第一次独自徒步旅行给作者带来了极大的快乐,她学会了享受个人时光,并且从中获得勇气去结识新朋友。
细节理解题。由第二段“Solo (独自的) outings had never crossed my mind before because I always had a friend with me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city was tough. (我以前从来没有想过独自出游,因为我总是有一个朋友和我在一起。但三年前,我搬到了克利夫兰。在一个新城市与朋友见面很艰难)”可知,作者以前从未尝试过独自出游,因为总有人陪伴她,搬家后,因为难以找到(一起出游的)同伴,作者决定独自出游。故选D项。
细节理解题。由第三段中“I studied the markings of trees, focused my ears on each forest sound and did something I almost never made time for: I listened to my own thoughts. (我研究了树木的标记,把耳朵集中在每
一个森林的声音上,做了一件我几乎从来没有抽出时间的事情:我倾听自己的想法)”可知,作者在CVNP的第一次独自徒步旅行中,注意(或倾听)了自己内心的声音。故选B项。

押题2 直接信息题
Adolescence (青春期) is a stressful time. From friends to families, from home to school, stressful situations become common. Now, a new study shows an unexpected factor (因素) might cause teens to respond strongly to stress.
Jonas Miller, a psychologist at Stanford University, wanted to know whether air pollution might affect teens’ response to stress. his team recruited (招募) 144 tweens and teens for the study, most of whom lived in or near San Francisco, which ranks among the ten U.S. cities having the worst air quality. The researchers used data on air pollution collected by the city to see how polluted the air was near each recruit’s home. They then collected physical. and social information about the students and invited them to participate in a stressfuf.test.
Before the test, the researchers used sensors to record participants’ heart rate and sweat levels for five minutes-as they rested. Then the test began. A researcher read aloud the beginning of a story and told each participant to make up an exciting ending, which they would have to memorize and present aloud to a judge. After finishing this task, the judge had the participant do math problems. If they made a mistake, they had to start over. The whole time, sensors recorded heart rate and sweat levels.
At rest, all the students had similar heart rates and sweat levels, Miller found. But as the test got tough, kids from neighborhoods with more air pollution reacted more strongly to stress. Their heartbeats became irregular. They sweated more than teens who lived in cleaner places.
Miller looked at other possible causes of those strong reactions in the students. including their height and weight, stage of adolescence, family income and neighborhood. None of them explained the stronger stress response. Such responses are linked to negative feelings, Miller notes. Over time, these responses can “contribute to problems with both physical and mental health”.
“This is an interesting study,” says Anjum Hajat, an epidemiologist who studies the causes of disease. Miller’s study “provides unique evidence of the negative health impacts of air pollution among adolescents,” Hajat says.

5. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Miller looked at other possible causes of those strong reactions in the students, including their height and weight, stage of adolescence, family income and neighborhood”可知,Miller还研究了其他可能导致青少年强烈反应的因素,包括他们的身高和体重、处于青春期的哪个阶段、家庭收入和邻里关系。A项“Parents’ income.(父母收入)”属于家庭收入。故选A。
押题3 间接信息题
I’m a walker, logging an average of 9000 steps a day several times a week around my neighborhood. On recent trips to Copenhagen and Stockholm, I noticed tall, fit Scandinavians (斯堪法尼亚人) walking along on city streets with poles, as if they were cross-country skiing without any snow.
It was a surprise to learn that the addition of the poles makes it a more vigorous, full-body exercise than simply walking – and, as a 76-year-old looking to stay healthy while enjoying the outdoors, I decided to give it a try.
There’s plenty of help online for the new Nordic (北 欧的 ) walker: stand tall, swing your arms out as if to shake hands, and plant your poles with vigour. Then there’s the little matter of the strap (带子) on the pole. This allows the walker to grip the pole when thrusting forward and then relax that hand as the other hand pushes forward – a skill of coordination that builds stronger muscles.
For a warm-up, I started slow: Nordic walking down the hall that extends from my front door to the deck. Keeping balance wasn’t my only problem. The novel use of my arms and upper body was surprisingly demanding. After half an hour, my heart was pounding and I was sweating, but I still wasn’t much good.
6.What inspired the writer to try Nordic walking
A.Enjoying the outdoor skiing. B.Observing Scandinavians walking.
C.Getting tired of simple walking. D.Fancying a healthy lifestyle.
7.What was the main challenge for the author during the initial stages of Nordic walking
A.Building strong muscle in the arms.
B.Using arms and upper body harmoniously.
C.Sweating with heart pounding.
D.Feeling discouraged for lack of progress.
【答案】6.B 7.B
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者尝试新健身活动——北欧式健走的体验以及其益处。
6.细节理解题。由文章一段中“On recent trips to Copenhagen and Stockholm, I noticed tall, fit Scandinavians (斯堪法尼亚人) walking along on city streets with poles, as if they were cross-country skiing without any snow. (在最近的哥本哈根和斯德哥尔摩之行中,我注意到高大、健康的斯堪法尼亚人拄着杆子走在城市的街道上,就好像他们在进行没有雪的越野滑雪。)”以及第二段“It was a surprise to learn that the addition of the poles makes it a more vigorous, full-body exercise than simply walking – and, as a 76-year-old looking to stay healthy while enjoying the outdoors, I decided to give it a try.(令人惊讶的是,杆的加入使它成为一种比简单步行更有力的全身运动——作为一个76岁的老人,我希望在享受户外活动的同时保持健康,我决定试一试。)”可知,观察斯堪法尼亚人拄着两根手杖行走激发了作者尝试这种新健身活动的灵感。故选B。
7.细节理解题。由文章第四段中“The novel use of my arms and upper body was surprisingly demanding. (我的手臂和上半身的新颖运用要求很高。)”可知,在行走的最初阶段,作者面临的主要挑战是手臂与上身协调使用。故选B。
押题4 间接信息题
Camping tips: Which overnight wilderness experience is right for you
If you’re an experienced backpacker, read no further. This article is for camping rookies, those who have never slept beneath the stars or haven’t pitched (搭建) a tent since their youth but are seriously thinking about overnighting in the wilderness.
Car camping
At its most basic, car camping involves packing a tent, sleeping bag, fold-up chair, cooler and camp stove into your vehicle and staying at a drive-up campground. Nearly every national park, and many state and county parks and private facilities, offer drive-up campgrounds with restrooms, potable water, fire rings or pits, and maybe even hot showers. So there are lots of choices.
The downside of car camping is the fact that these campgrounds are often packed with other campers. Not a lot of privacy, they can be noisy, and possibly hinder (阻碍) your quest of communing with nature.
Backpacking
No vehicle required; just your feet and a good pair of hiking boots or shoes to get you to the next overnight spot. A multi-day hiking trip is without doubt the most immersive way to experience the great outdoors.
Different from maybe car camping, it requires the least expense and equipment. All you really need are a backpack, sleeping bag, water bottle, small first-aid kit, enough food to last the entire travel. It can be done just about anywhere on the planet.
Boat Camping
While this does involve owning or renting a watercraft or using a ferry or water taxi service to reach the overnight site, camping via canoe, kayak, raft or boat offers a similar get-away-from-it-all adventure as backpacking.
Experienced paddlers and boaters usually prefer to camp on their own along a quiet shoreline. But many adventure or wilderness outfitters offer guided trips that can last anywhere from a couple of days to two or three weeks. With a boat, you can sometimes camp places that not even backpackers can reach.
8.What can you learn from the passage
A.Boat camping offers the same adventures as backpacking.
B.Backpacking allows you to communicate with nature deeply.
C.Car camping is the most economical way to experience nature.
D.The drive-up campgrounds provide people with private environment.
【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据“Backpacking”下文介绍第一段中的“A multi-day hiking trip is without doubt the most immersive way to experience the great outdoors. (多日徒步旅行无疑是体验户外美景的最身临其境的方式。)”可知,背包旅行可以让你以身临其境的方式去体验户外美景;由此可知,背包旅行可以亲身体验户外美景,与大自然进行深入的交流。故选B项。

One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes (龙卷风) form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas,” Dr. Doswell says. “Does cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”
Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice,
doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Scientific studies have proved Stienwand right.
B. Private climate engineering is illegal in Canada.
C. The doubt about cloud seeding has disappeared.
D. Cloud-seeding companies will continue to exist.
【答案】 D
【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice, doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.(考虑到质疑的程度,斯廷旺德建议,“停止人工降雨是明智的。”在实践中,怀疑产生了相反的效果。由于缺乏有关其影响的科学证据,没有人成功地赢得了对人工降雨公司的诉讼。因此,私人气候工程可以在相对合法的安全条件下进行)”可推知,从最后一段我们能推断出人工降雨公司将继续存在。故选D项。

From time to time, we find ourselves at the end of our rope. Our responsibilities pile up, our resources break down, and we feel uncomfortably anxious—what we’re experiencing is called stress. Simply put, the demands placed upon us outweigh our available resources, just like a set of scales (天平) going out of balance. Focusing on work and pretending everything is OK only leads to disastrous results. Medical treatment for stress may function for a while, but it tends to make things worse in the long run. The only solution to deal with stress is to do the mathematics to balance the scales.
12.According to the last paragraph, how can we deal with stress
A.Devote more energy to our work.
B.Increase resources available to us.
C.Seek professional medical treatment.
D.Master advanced mathematical skills.
【答案】 B
【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Simply put, the demands placed upon us outweigh our available resources, just like a set of scales (天平) going out of balance.(简单地说,对我们的要求超过了我们现有的资源,就像一组天平失去平衡一样。)”和“The only solution to deal with stress is to do the mathematics to balance the scales.(处理压力的唯一解决方案是通过数学来平衡天平。)”可知,对我们的要求超过了我们现有的资源,所以天平失去了平衡,而唯一的方法是通过数学来平衡天平,由此可推测出,要增加可用的资源,以便达到平衡。故选B。
预测3(23-24高三下·江苏扬州·开学考试)
Are you frequently overwhelmed by the feeling that life is leaving you behind, particularly when you look through social media sites and see all the exciting things your friends are up to If so, you are not alone.
FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out, refers to the perception that other people’s lives are superior to our own, whether this concerns socializing, accomplishing professional goals or generally having a more deeply fulfilling life. It shows itself as a deep sense of envy, and constant exposure to it can have a weakening effect on our self-respect. The feeling that we are always being left out of fundamentally important events, or that our lives are not living up to the image pictured by others, can have long-term damaging psychological consequences.
While feelings of envy and inadequacy seem to be naturally human, social media seems to have added fuel to the fire in several ways. The reason why social media has such a triggering effect is tied to the appeal of social media in the first place: these are platforms which allow us to share only the most glowing presentations of our accomplishments, while leaving out the boring aspects of life. While this kind of misrepresentation could be characterized as dishonest, it is what the polished atmosphere of social media seems to demand.
......
26.What does the author suggest in the third paragraph
A.The primary reason for FOMO is deeply rooted in social media.
B.Our own social media posts help us feel much more confident.
C.People who don’t share posts on social media are more bored.
D.Social media’s nature enhances envious feelings and self-doubt.
【答案】 D
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段“While feelings of envy and inadequacy seem to be naturally human, social media seems to have added fuel to the fire in several ways.(虽然嫉妒和缺乏信心的感觉似乎是人类的天性,但社交媒体似乎在几个方面给这种情绪火上浇油)”可知,作者在第三段表明媒体的本质增强了嫉妒感和自我怀疑。故选D。

典例1 【2024年浙江1月高考C篇】
On September 7, 1991, the costliest hailstorm (花暴) in Canadian history hit Calgary’s southern suburbs. As a result, since 1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about $2million per year on the Alberta Hail Suppression Project. Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain before they can grow into dangerous hailstones. But farmers in east-central Alberta — downwind of the hail project flights — worry that precious moisture (水分) is being stolen from their thirsty land by the cloud seeding.
Norman Stienwand, who farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings on this issue for years “Basically, the provincial government is letting the insurance companies protect the Calgary-Edmonton urban area from hail,” Mr. Stienwan d says, “but they’re increasing drought risk as far east as Saskatchewan.”
The Alberta hail project is managed by Terry Krauss, a cloud physicist who works for Weather Modification Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota. “We affect only a very small percentage of the total moisture in the air, so we cannot
be cousing drought.” Dr. Krauss says. “In fact, we may be helping increase the moisture downwind by creating wetter ground.”
One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes (龙卷风) form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas,” Dr. Doswell says. “Does cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”
Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice, doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.
10. Why does Dr. Doswell mention the tornadoes he saw in 1999
A. To compare different kinds of seeding methods.
B. To illustrate the development of big hailstorms.
C. To indicate a possible danger of cloud seeding.
D. To show the link between storms and moisture.
【答案】 C
【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes (龙卷风) form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas,” Dr. Doswell says. “Does cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”(查克·多斯韦尔是一位刚刚从俄克拉何马大学退休的研究科学家,他对人工降雨的安全性持怀疑态度。“1999年,我在堪萨斯州亲眼目睹了由种子风暴细胞形成的重大龙卷风,”多斯韦尔博士说。“人工降雨会制造致命风暴还是减少顺风处的水分?当然,没有人真正知道,但是播种还在继续。”)”可推知,多斯韦尔博士提到他在1999年看到的龙卷风是为了提示人工降雨可能带来的危险。故选C项。

预测1(2024·江苏省姜堰中学模拟)
Omar Vazquez grew up in poverty on Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula. He watched his single mother struggle to put food on the table, and today the memory inspires him to help those in need. When an invasive (入侵的) seaweed called sargassum showed up on Mexico’s Caribbean beaches, Omar looked past the matter of it all and saw an opportunity to help others.
Sargassum is not dangerous, but it has an unpleasant smell and can become so thick that it keeps people from entering the water. Mexico has experienced record-setting amounts of the seaweed in recent years, and it has made
its way to Florida’s beaches as well. Experts say there could be as much as 100 tons of sargassum blocking Mexican shorelines in 2023.
With tourism dollars at risk, officials and locals alike were eager to remove the seaweed, but only Omar saw its true potential. The professional gardener organized a beach cleanup that provided jobs for about 300 local families, but he knew there was more to do. Since people’s attitude towards the seaweed reminded him of his own life experiences, he decided to become an agent (推动者) for change.
When sargassum started arriving, everyone was complaining. “I wanted to make something good out of something everyone saw as bad,” Omar explained.
In 2018, Omar found a way to turn sargassum into building blocks that he calls Sargablock. He creates these blocks by mixing 40% sargassum with other materials like clay, then putting them in a block-forming machine and baking them in the sun for days. The end result is an organic, sustainable, and ecologically friendly building material that experts say could last for 120 years.
To date, Omar’s company, Bluegreen Mexico, has used 700 tons of sargassum to build low-income housing for those in need. Omar said he would take on more projects, and donate more houses to single mothers like his own mom.
8.What does the author mainly want to tell us through Omar’s success
A.It’s never too old to learn. B.Love shines every dark corner.
C.Solutions can be obtained from problems. D.Heroes arise from humble beginnings.

预测2 (23-24高三·江苏连云港·名校联考)
A narrow region of the eastern Pacific Ocean has been getting colder for the past 30 years, challenging global trends and confusing many scientists. Over at least three decades, the region has cooled by roughly half a degree, which has been causing scientists to wonder how long that will hold.
The unusual phenomenon, known as the “cold tongue” is affecting a vast area of ocean west of South America. Scientists are not entirely certain what is keeping the “cold tongue” cool. Richard Seager, from the Earth Observatory at Columbia University, said one factor appears to be trade winds in the equatorial (赤道) region, which carry warm water away from the surface, stimulating cooler water to rise. “The trade winds blow from east to west across the tropical Pacific Ocean,” Seager said. “As the waters are driven away from the surface, water flows up from below. And since the waters below the surface are cold, this creates the ‘cold tongue’.”
Yet despite the effect of these winds, the “cold tongue” has puzzled scientists, because advanced climate
computer models suggest that the waters should have been warming for decades at a faster rate than the rest of the Pacific due to rising greenhouse gas emissions (排放).
Pedro DiNezio of the University of Colorado Boulder, considers “It’s the most important unanswered question in climate science”. Scientists can’t predict when it will end or start warming since the cause is unknown. According to New Scientist, this has huge worldwide implications, including determining California’s permanent drought and Australia’s wildfires. More profoundly still, “it could even alter the extent of climate change globally”, the site said, “by understanding how sensitive Earth’s atmosphere is to rising greenhouse gas production”.
Despite this, the overall ocean temperatures are rising. Solving the puzzle of the “cold tongue” isn’t about proving climate models wrong. Rather, the “cold tongue” is the last big piece of the puzzle. Fit that in and we can build a more accurate picture of how life will change in a warming world-and how best to prepare for that future.
16.What is the purpose of the text
A.To stress the effect of climate change.
B.To introduce an unusual phenomenon.
C.To explain reasons for strange natural disasters.
D.To appeal to people to pay more attention to the ocean.
【答案】B

A recent study, led by Professor Andrew Barron, Dr. HaDi MaBouDi, and Professor James Marshall, illustrates how evolution has fine-tuned honey bees to make quick judgments while minimizing danger.
“Animal lives are full of decisions,” says Professor Barron. “A honey bee has a brain smaller than a sesame (芝麻) seed. And yet it can make decisions faster and more accurately than’ we can. A robot programmed to do a bee’s job would need the backup of a supercomputer.”
......
21.Why does Professor Andrew Barron mention “a supercomputer”
A.To illustrate how a honey bee’s brain resemble each other.
B.To explain how animals arrive at informed decisions fast.
C.To demonstrate how a robot could finish a honey bee’s job.
D.To emphasize how honey bees make decisions remarkably.
【答案】 D
【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段中安德鲁·巴伦教授的话“A honey bee has a brain smaller than a sesame (芝麻) seed. And yet it can make decisions faster and more accurately than’ we can. A robot programmed to do a bee’s job would need the backup of a supercomputer.(蜜蜂的大脑比芝麻还小。然而,它可以比我们更快、更准确地做出决定。一个被编程来做蜜蜂工作的机器人需要超级计算机的支持)”可知,被编程来做蜜蜂工作的机器人需要超级计算机的支持才能完成工作。由此推知,安德鲁·巴伦教授提到“超级计算机”是为了通过比较来强调蜜蜂卓越的决策能力。故选D项。
