Several art projects are on show to warn people of the climate change happening around us.
Video on the walls
Photographer Camille Seaman has traveled to both the North Pole and the South Pole, where she has captured the disappearing ice in photographs and video. Camille Seaman made a video with some of her most powerful photos of melting ice for people in four coastal cities to display on their buildings. The video ends with a prediction that sea level will rise by 2050 without relative action.
Mural （壁画） changing color
Temperatures in Austin, Texas, are on the rise, and climate change will put the city at higher risk of extended drought, wildfires, intense rain and flooding. Artist Lope Gutiérrez-Ruiz designed a unique mural that changes color as it gets hotter. This art work calls for people to change the world and change climate change, underlining the importance of individual actions to the collective future.
Public billboard （广告牌）
Artist Christine Sun Kim released a public billboard on the 710 Freeway called The Sound of Temperature Rising.

The illustration features a graph（图表） of music notes that get progressively longer and redder.
Anti-Extinction Library
Globally, species are disappearing at an unheard-of rate. In response, architect Mitchell Joachim created The Anti-Extinction Library in New York. The sculptural piece is not only beautiful but also functional. Their unique egg-shaped library has a special freezer storing test tubes with the frozen cells and DNA of rare animals and plants.

With amazing Christmas lights and some very special guests, Pallion Action Group kicked off the festive season in style after another year of giving much-needed support to the Sunderland community.
"We've got wreath making, our singers and dancers and, of course, a visit from Santa. This event brings out so much enthusiasm in the community," said organizer Karen Noble. "We'll also go and surprise anyone we know who's going to be lonely at Christmas."
Pallion has been at the heart of the community here since 1993, but the past couple of years have seen people increasingly struggling financially and feeling lonely. "This time last year, people were in great poverty," said Karen. "But if we've done our job properly, they've become more financially resilient（可迅速恢复的） or less lonely and we should be helping different people this year. And a lot of those who were helped last year are volunteering for us now. People are so kind—we get loads of homemade thank-you cards. But I think the biggest thanks we get is knowing we've helped somebody to the point where they're independent and getting on with life."
Karen and the team organize a wide range of activities, from after-school clubs and cookery sessions to line dancing and computer classes to keep older people connected. But all this wouldn't be possible without funding from People's Health Trust, with money raised through The Health Lottery（彩票）. Every time you play The Health Lottery, not only could you win up to 100,000, but you're also helping to raise much-needed funds that go straight to the heart of the community. "So playing The Health Lottery is not just the chance to win a prize. You could be making a real difference," said Karen.
24． What can we know about Pallion Action Group from the first two paragraphs
A．It needs much support.
B．Its main task is holding festivals.
C．It cares for the community.
D．It offers a chance to visit Santa.
25．What does Karen think of their job
A．It is of no use. B．It has paid off.
C．It needs improving. D．It is not satisfactory.
26． How does Pallion Action Group get the fund
A．By funding from an organization.
B．By raising money themselves.
C．By receiving donations from different people.
D．By receiving money from the government.
27． Which words can best describe Karen
A．Sensitive and skeptical. B．Ambitious and energetic.
C．Talented and intelligent. D．Caring and enthusiastic.
（2024高二下·阳朔期中）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Is there any such thing as a salt tooth We are familiar with a sweet tooth, along with the negative effects of sugar. We are broadly aware of the disadvantages of too much salt, including high blood pressure, which puts pressure on the blood vessels（血管）, the heart and the kidneys. It can also lead to water retention（水肿）. But we don't tend to police how much salt we eat—at least, not as rigorously as with sugar—or question whether we are just paying attention to our bodies, which require some salt for muscles to work properly, or we are being controlled by a strong urge.
A salt tooth is quite unlike a sweet tooth. It doesn't create an appetite for itself at the hormone level. But salt does make our taste buds（味蕾） get used to it, so that the more you eat, the more you need to get the same salty hit. This is why chefs can get heavy-handed with it.
As Sam Bloom, a nutritional therapist, explains, "What is generally more concerning is the fat that is used together with salt, like salty crisps, fries and fast food. Ready meals are often the worst for hidden salts. Anything that adds flavor that isn't a spice or herb will probably have salt added to it and can make you want to eat more because it tastes good. The salt and fat combination in these foods is what causes problems with cholesterol（胆固醇）. The salt that people add to a meal is much less concerning."
Nutritionists' suggestion is convincing: When the desire for salt hits, avoid going straight for salty snack foods such as crisps and instead ensure you are well hydrated. Seek out whole foods, such as olives and leafy greens. These foods will help you alleviate the desire for salt, which may often be due to a desire for nutrient-rich food.
28． What does the underlined word "rigorously" in paragraph 1 mean
A．Generally. B．Strictly. C．Largely. D．Pleasantly.
29． Why is salt different from sugar according to paragraph 2
A．Salt attracts chefs.
B．Salt can change hormone level.
C．Salt gets people adapted.
D．Salt generates a special appetite.
30．What is Sam Bloom's attitude towards ready meals
A．Objective. B．Negative. C．Approving. D．Ambiguous.
31．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A．Ways of seeking out whole food.
B．Reasons for getting the desire for salt.
C．Attitudes towards seeking for nutrient food.
D．Approaches to relieving the eagerness for salt.
（2024高二下·阳朔期中）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Italian diver and gardener Sergio Gamberini decided to see if he could grow vegetables in a plastic balloon underwater. The experiment was a success—so he decided to dive deeper into the world of underwater agriculture.
Today, Gamberini is the founder of a company using "biospheres" off the coast of Italy to grow a variety of plants, introducing the world to a new type of agriculture. The company's six "biospheres" are air-filled plastic balloons about two meters wide. Each is fixed to the seabed by chains so that it sits between 15 and 36 feet below sea level. The biospheres are equipped with cameras and sensors that allow researchers in the company to monitor CO2 levels, humidity, temperature, and more from a control tower on the shoreline. There's also a device to communicate with divers in the biospheres.
Solar panels（太阳能电池板） on the roof of the control tower power the fans that create airflow inside the biospheres, and because the temperature inside and outside the biospheres is consistent, there's no need to expend energy on the heating or cooling systems needed for traditional greenhouses.
The underwater garden doesn't require pesticides（杀虫剂） since bugs can't reach the plants, and though more research is needed, the company notes on its website that the higher-pressure conditions underwater appear to help plants grow more quickly.
The company is now ready to shift from the research phase of development to optimizing （优化） its biospheres for industrialization, with the goal of expanding them off coastlines around the world. To achieve the aim, the startup is now taking advantage of"digital twin"technology to precisely simulate（模仿） every aspect of its underwater garden.
Even with all the optimization potential offered by technology, Gamberini admits it's hard to imagine the produce grown in his startup's biospheres ever competing financially with traditionally grown crops. Still, he hopes the system's sustainability will be enough to draw customers.
32． What does Gamberini's company use "biospheres" mainly for
A．Doing scientific research on marine life.
B．Creating a habitat for underwater animals.
C．Growing different types of plants through underwater agriculture.
D．Monitoring climate change effects on coastal regions.
33．How is the temperature maintained inside the biospheres
A．By temperature regulation by divers.
B．By advanced heating and cooling systems.
C．By natural climate conditions of underwater environment.
D．By solar panels on the roof of the control tower.
34． What can we infer about Gamberini's company
A．It has little negative influence on the environment.
B．It negatively affects ocean biodiversity.
C．It leads to much use of pesticides.
D．It contributes to climate change.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．Grow Plants Under the Sea
B．The Creative World of Keeping Animals
C．Explore the Depths of Underwater Farming
D．The Challenge of Growing Greens Underwater

One day, I was taking a summer class in American literature on the campus of The State University of New York at Oneonta. Professor James walked into the classroom and announced that he had invited a special guest to class, but his guest had been delayed. The class stirred with curiosity and anticipation.
"Who is coming " someone asked. "All I will tell you is that he is the author of one of the books you have read for this class," he said. "I need a volunteer to meet him and guide him here."
To my amazement, my right hand shot up. I never volunteer for anything. I'm introverted（内向的）, shy, and uncomfortable meeting new people. In fact, I'm absolutely the wrong person for the job. Realizing my mistake, I put my hand down quickly, but it was too late.
"Thank you, David," said Professor James. "You'd better leave now. He will be arriving any minute." Seeing no way to back out, I reluctantly got out of my seat and headed for the classroom door. When I reached it, I stopped. "Umm," I said. "If I don't know who this person is, how will I recognize him I would hate to bring back the wrong guy." Professor James laughed. "Good point," he said. He pulled me aside and whispered a name in my ear. "Alex Haley," he said. "Really " I said.
I regretted for volunteering. Why me Alex Haley is one of the authors of The Autobiography of Malcolm X : As Told to Alex Haley. He is so famous. As I walked across the campus, my anxiety grew. I feared that I was about to embarrass myself in front of the famous gentleman by asking stupid questions, or worse, by guiding him in painful silence.
But at the moment I realized why I instinctively raised my hand to volunteer for this job. The man was what I wanted to be: a writer. I could learn from him.
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。
I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase（公文包） entered the building.
Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing.

67．【答案】I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase（公文包） entered the building. I approached him, asking if he was Alex Haley. He nodded politely. I introduced myself to him. My heart pounded. However, after talking with him briefly, I was struck by how approachable he was. My fear was replaced by curiosity and admiration. I told him I wanted to be a writer, but I didn't know if I had the talent. He laughed and said, "There is no magical gift. Put in the work. Write every day, and don't give up until you succeed."
Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing. Instead, I started accumulating writing materials and practised writing every day. Whatever happened, I stuck to my initial aspiration and kept in the right track. Within two years, I published three stories in national children's magazines. I have been writing and publishing ever since. Had I not volunteered to meet this extraordinary man, I would never have received the benefit of his wise advice and the rewards that followed.

【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，讲述了作者在纽约州立大学奥尼昂塔分校的校园里上美国文学暑期班时，作者自愿接见大作家亚历克斯·哈利的经历让他走上了梦寐以求的作家之路。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"我来回踱步，直到一个拿着公文包的人进入大楼。"可知，第一段可描写作者见到了大作家亚历克斯·哈利并告诉他自己也想成为作家，他得到了亚历克斯·哈利的支持与鼓励。②由第二段首句内容"在哈利先生的鼓励下，我不再担心自己是否有写作天赋。"可知，第二段可描写作者认真写作终于成为了一名作家。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。

With amazing Christmas lights and some very special guests, Pallion Action Group kicked off the festive season in style after another year of giving much-needed support to the Sunderland community.
"We've got wreath making, our singers and dancers and, of course, a visit from Santa. This event brings out so much enthusiasm in the community," said organizer Karen Noble. "We'll also go and surprise anyone we know who's going to be lonely at Christmas."
Pallion has been at the heart of the community here since 1993, but the past couple of years have seen people increasingly struggling financially and feeling lonely. "This time last year, people were in great poverty," said Karen. "But if we've done our job properly, they've become more financially resilient（可迅速恢复的） or less lonely and we should be helping different people this year. And a lot of those who were helped last year are volunteering for us now. People are so kind—we get loads of homemade thank-you cards. But I think the biggest thanks we get is knowing we've helped somebody to the point where they're independent and getting on with life."
Karen and the team organize a wide range of activities, from after-school clubs and cookery sessions to line dancing and computer classes to keep older people connected. But all this wouldn't be possible without funding from People's Health Trust, with money raised through The Health Lottery（彩票）. Every time you play The Health Lottery, not only could you win up to 100,000, but you're also helping to raise much-needed funds that go straight to the heart of the community. "So playing The Health Lottery is not just the chance to win a prize. You could be making a real difference," said Karen.
24． What can we know about Pallion Action Group from the first two paragraphs
A．It needs much support.
B．Its main task is holding festivals.

D．It offers a chance to visit Santa.
25．What does Karen think of their job
A．It is of no use. B．It has paid off.
C．It needs improving. D．It is not satisfactory.
26． How does Pallion Action Group get the fund
A．By funding from an organization.
B．By raising money themselves.
C．By receiving donations from different people.
D．By receiving money from the government.
27． Which words can best describe Karen

Is there any such thing as a salt tooth We are familiar with a sweet tooth, along with the negative effects of sugar. We are broadly aware of the disadvantages of too much salt, including high blood pressure, which puts pressure on the blood vessels（血管）, the heart and the kidneys. It can also lead to water retention（水肿）. But we don't tend to police how much salt we eat—at least, not as rigorously as with sugar—or question whether we are just paying attention to our bodies, which require some salt for muscles to work properly, or we are being controlled by a strong urge.
A salt tooth is quite unlike a sweet tooth. It doesn't create an appetite for itself at the hormone level. But salt does make our taste buds（味蕾） get used to it, so that the more you eat, the more you need to get the same salty hit. This is why chefs can get heavy-handed with it.
As Sam Bloom, a nutritional therapist, explains, "What is generally more concerning is the fat that is used together with salt, like salty crisps, fries and fast food. Ready meals are often the worst for hidden salts. Anything that adds flavor that isn't a spice or herb will probably have salt added to it and can make you want to eat more because it tastes good. The salt and fat combination in these foods is what causes problems with cholesterol（胆固醇）. The salt that people add to a meal is much less concerning."
Nutritionists' suggestion is convincing: When the desire for salt hits, avoid going straight for salty snack foods such as crisps and instead ensure you are well hydrated. Seek out whole foods, such as olives and leafy greens. These foods will help you alleviate the desire for salt, which may often be due to a desire for nutrient-rich food.
28． What does the underlined word "rigorously" in paragraph 1 mean
A．Generally. B．Strictly. C．Largely. D．Pleasantly.
29． Why is salt different from sugar according to paragraph 2
A．Salt attracts chefs.
B．Salt can change hormone level.
C．Salt gets people adapted.
D．Salt generates a special appetite.
30．What is Sam Bloom's attitude towards ready meals
A．Objective. B．Negative. C．Approving. D．Ambiguous.
31．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A．Ways of seeking out whole food.
B．Reasons for getting the desire for salt.
C．Attitudes towards seeking for nutrient food.
D．Approaches to relieving the eagerness for salt.
【答案】28．B
29．C
30．B

【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了为什么要控盐，以及控盐的方法。
【点评】考查阅读理解。涉及推理判断题，细节理解题，词义猜测题和主旨大意题。解答推理判断题要根据原文中的信息与选项信息结合起来进行正确推断，得出答案；解答细节理解题要完全符合原文，不能主观臆断；解答词义猜测题和主旨大意题时需要根据文章的内容和选项来判断出正确答案。
28．词义猜测题。根据But we don't tend to police how much salt we eat但我们往往不会去监督我们吃了多少盐以及上文 We are familiar with a sweet tooth, along with the negative effects of sugar
. 我们都很熟悉爱吃甜食的人，以及糖的负面影响。可知人们知道糖对人的危害，它们会严格控糖；但是人们没有意识到盐对人的危害也很大，这里rigorously的意思为： 严格地，严厉地；故答案为 B。
29．细节理解题。根据A salt tooth is quite unlike a sweet tooth. It doesn't create an appetite for
itself at the hormone level. But salt does make our taste buds（味蕾） get used to it, so that
the more you eat, the more you need to get the same salty hit. 爱吃盐的人跟爱吃甜食的人很不一样。在激素水平上，它不会对自己产生食欲。但盐确实会让我们的味蕾适应它(味蕾)，所以你吃得越多，你就越需要得到同样的咸味。可知盐和糖不同在于盐能让人适应；故答案为 C。
30．推理判断题。根据Ready meals are often the worst for hidden salts. Anything that adds flavor
that isn't a spice or herb will probably have salt added to it and can make you want to eat more because it tastes good. The salt and fat combination in these foods is what causes problems with cholesterol（胆固醇）. 即食食品通常是含隐性盐最多的食物。任何不是香料或草药的调味料都可能会添加盐，这会让你想吃得更多，因为它尝起来很好吃。这些食物中的盐和脂肪组合是导致胆固醇问题的原因。可知山姆·布鲁姆对即食食品是否定的；故答案为 B。
31．主旨大意题。根据 Nutritionists' suggestion is convincing: When the desire for salt hits, avoid
going straight for salty snack foods such as crisps and instead ensure you are well hydrated. Seek out whole foods, such as olives and leafy greens. These foods will help you alleviate the desire for salt, which may often be due to a desire for nutrient-rich food.营养学家的建议很有说服力:当你想吃盐的时候，不要直接吃含盐的零食，比如薯片，而是要保证你的水分充足。选择天然食物，比如橄榄和绿叶蔬菜。这些食物将帮助你减轻对盐的渴望，这可能通常是由于对营养丰富的食物的渴望。可知这一段主要讲缓解对盐的渴望的方法；故答案为D 。
（2024高二下·阳朔期中）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Italian diver and gardener Sergio Gamberini decided to see if he could grow vegetables in a plastic balloon underwater. The experiment was a success—so he decided to dive deeper into the world of underwater agriculture.
Today, Gamberini is the founder of a company using "biospheres" off the coast of Italy to grow a variety of plants, introducing the world to a new type of agriculture. The company's six "biospheres" are air-filled plastic balloons about two meters wide. Each is fixed to the seabed by chains so that it sits between 15 and 36 feet below sea level. The biospheres are equipped with cameras and sensors that allow researchers in the company to monitor CO2 levels, humidity, temperature, and more from a control tower on the shoreline. There's also a device to communicate with divers in the biospheres.
Solar panels（太阳能电池板） on the roof of the control tower power the fans that create airflow inside the biospheres, and because the temperature inside and outside the biospheres is consistent, there's no need to expend energy on the heating or cooling systems needed for traditional greenhouses.
The underwater garden doesn't require pesticides（杀虫剂） since bugs can't reach the plants, and though more research is needed, the company notes on its website that the higher-pressure conditions underwater appear to help plants grow more quickly.
The company is now ready to shift from the research phase of development to optimizing （优化） its biospheres for industrialization, with the goal of expanding them off coastlines around the world. To achieve the aim, the startup is now taking advantage of"digital twin"technology to precisely simulate（模仿） every aspect of its underwater garden.
Even with all the optimization potential offered by technology, Gamberini admits it's hard to imagine the produce grown in his startup's biospheres ever competing financially with traditionally grown crops. Still, he hopes the system's sustainability will be enough to draw customers.
32． What does Gamberini's company use "biospheres" mainly for
A．Doing scientific research on marine life.
B．Creating a habitat for underwater animals.
C．Growing different types of plants through underwater agriculture.
D．Monitoring climate change effects on coastal regions.
33．How is the temperature maintained inside the biospheres
A．By temperature regulation by divers.
B．By advanced heating and cooling systems.
C．By natural climate conditions of underwater environment.
D．By solar panels on the roof of the control tower.
34． What can we infer about Gamberini's company
A．It has little negative influence on the environment.
B．It negatively affects ocean biodiversity.
C．It leads to much use of pesticides.
D．It contributes to climate change.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．Grow Plants Under the Sea
B．The Creative World of Keeping Animals
C．Explore the Depths of Underwater Farming
D．The Challenge of Growing Greens Underwater
【答案】32．C

八、第二节 （满分25分）
67．（2024高二下·阳朔期中）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。
One day, I was taking a summer class in American literature on the campus of The State University of New York at Oneonta. Professor James walked into the classroom and announced that he had invited a special guest to class, but his guest had been delayed. The class stirred with curiosity and anticipation.
"Who is coming " someone asked. "All I will tell you is that he is the author of one of the books you have read for this class," he said. "I need a volunteer to meet him and guide him here."
To my amazement, my right hand shot up. I never volunteer for anything. I'm introverted（内向的）, shy, and uncomfortable meeting new people. In fact, I'm absolutely the wrong person for the job. Realizing my mistake, I put my hand down quickly, but it was too late.
"Thank you, David," said Professor James. "You'd better leave now. He will be arriving any minute." Seeing no way to back out, I reluctantly got out of my seat and headed for the classroom door. When I reached it, I stopped. "Umm," I said. "If I don't know who this person is, how will I recognize him I would hate to bring back the wrong guy." Professor James laughed. "Good point," he said. He pulled me aside and whispered a name in my ear. "Alex Haley," he said. "Really " I said.
I regretted for volunteering. Why me Alex Haley is one of the authors of The Autobiography of Malcolm X : As Told to Alex Haley. He is so famous. As I walked across the campus, my anxiety grew. I feared that I was about to embarrass myself in front of the famous gentleman by asking stupid questions, or worse, by guiding him in painful silence.
But at the moment I realized why I instinctively raised my hand to volunteer for this job. The man was what I wanted to be: a writer. I could learn from him.
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。
I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase（公文包） entered the building.
Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing.
【答案】I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase（公文包） entered the building. I approached him, asking if he was Alex Haley. He nodded politely. I introduced myself to him. My heart pounded. However, after talking with him briefly, I was struck by how approachable he was. My fear was replaced by curiosity and admiration. I told him I wanted to be a writer, but I didn't know if I had the talent. He laughed and said, "There is no magical gift. Put in the work. Write every day, and don't give up until you succeed."
Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing. Instead, I started accumulating writing materials and practised writing every day. Whatever happened, I stuck to my initial aspiration and kept in the right track. Within two years, I published three stories in national children's magazines. I have been writing and publishing ever since. Had I not volunteered to meet this extraordinary man, I would never have received the benefit of his wise advice and the rewards that followed.
【知识点】读后续写；日常生活类；故事阅读类；学习教育类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，讲述了作者在纽约州立大学奥尼昂塔分校的校园里上美国文学暑期班时，作者自愿接见大作家亚历克斯·哈利的经历让他走上了梦寐以求的作家之路。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"我来回踱步，直到一个拿着公文包的人进入大楼。"可知，第一段可描写作者见到了大作家亚历克斯·哈利并告诉他自己也想成为作家，他得到了亚历克斯·哈利的支持与鼓励。②由第二段首句内容"在哈利先生的鼓励下，我不再担心自己是否有写作天赋。"可知，第二段可描写作者认真写作终于成为了一名作家。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【点评】本书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如：
I approached him, asking if he was Alex Haley. 运用了宾语从句；运用了时间状语从句； I told
him I wanted to be a writer, but I didn't know if I had the talent. 运用了宾语从句，并列句；Put in the work. Write every day, and don't give up until you succeed.运用了祈使句；Whatever happened, I stuck to my initial aspiration and kept in the right track.运用了让步状语从句；Had I not volunteered to meet this extraordinary man, I would never have received the
