It's one of the biggest challenges in higher education today: What do you do with the nearly one in five working-age adults who have some college experience, but no degree
Sokeo Ros was one of them. "I just hated community college," he says. "I made up my mind: I'm never going back to school. I have all these debts, and I don't want to waste my time." Ros,34, was born in Thailand. He dropped out of two colleges, switching majors several times. Meanwhile, he taught dance in Providence, R. I. , struggling to raise his daughter. But in 2012, he found College Unbound that accepts adults, like Ros.
College Unbound is the creation of educator Dennis Littky He is devoted to helping adults make their own path to a degree through College Unbound. Nearly all the students can get scholarship. They are paired one-on-one with advisers who help them make a plan that combines a job with online classes and independent research. Students create online works and show their live exhibitions.
Right now,College Unbound has about 75 students. It makes a great effort to keep the total cost per student under $10,000 per year. So far, the approach seems to be working:85 percent of its students have returned for a second year;60 percent of graduates take less than two years to complete their bachelor's degrees. And nearly nine of 10 College Unbound alumni (校友) are employed full-time.
Littky says College Unbound's goal is to create a new learning experience giving students more than just job training or qualifications. At last it lets adults understand lifelong learning is important for them.
Sokeo Ros experienced that. "At first, I just wanted to get a degree. But I kind of fell in love with the idea that learning is a lifelong experience."
4．What do we know about Sokeo Ros
A．He always wants to continue his study.
B．He didn't like the life at community college.
C．He was once a popular dance teacher.
D．He graduated from his community college.
5．How does College Unbound help adults
A．By looking for jobs suitable for adults.
B．By designing classes different from others.
C．By teaching adults for free online.
D．By offering professional guidance.
6．What is the aim of College Unbound
A．To advise adults to attend the college.
B．To create a new study experience beyond career training.
C．To improve adults' competitive ability in the society.
D．To expect adults to get their bachelor's degrees timely.
7．What's Sokeo Ros' attitude towards College Unbound at last
A．Supportive. B．Disappointed. C．Indifferent. D．Worried.
（2024高二下·河池期末）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。
Last year, I baked biscuits for complete strangers to say "thank you". I'd had to call 999 because I found my husband unconscious on the floor. Within minutes, a police car arrived and soon my husband received medical care in hospital.
A week later, when I dropped off still-warm biscuits and presented a thank-you note at the police station, the policemen thanked me for delivering gifts.
I drove away feeling light and happy. Later, I realized that my natural high might have been more than it seemed. Research has shown that sharing gratitude has positive effects on health. People who express gratitude will increase their happiness levels, lower their blood pressure and get better sleep.
What about people who receive gratitude Research has confirmed that when people receive thanks, they experience positive emotions. "Those are happy surprises," says Jo-Ann Tsang, a professor of psychology. When someone is thanked, he's more likely to return the favouror pass kindness on, and his chances of being helpful again doubles, probably because he enjoys feeling socially valued.
The give-and-take of gratitude also deepens relationships. Studies show that when your loved ones regularly express gratitude, making you feel appreciated, you're more likely to return appreciative feelings, which leads to more satisfactory in your relationships.
Nowadays, however, many people don't express gratitude. Our modern lifestyle may be to blame. With commercial and social media, everything is speeding the younger generation to feel they're the centre of the world. If it's all about them, why thank others
Why not thank others Just take a look at how many positive effects can saying "thank you" have on personal health—and the well-being of others.
If you aren't particularly grateful, I strongly suggest you learn to be. People who are instructed to keep gratitude journals, in which they write down positive things that happen to them, cultivate（培养） gratitude over time.
8．What's the purpose of mentioning the author's own experience
A．To make readers excited.
B．To introduce the topic of the text.
C．To share the way to bake biscuits.
D．To sing high praise for the policemen.
9．What benefit can people gain from expressing gratitude according to the text
A．They will sleep longer.
B．Their blood pressure may be lowered.
C．They will be more beautiful.
D．Their level of production is increased.
10．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．The ways to return the favour.
B．The chances of being helpful again.
C．The positive emotions when expressing gratitude.
D．People's feelings and reaction after being thanked.
11．What can we learn from the text
A．Writing gratitude diaries is a good way to cultivate gratitude.
B．Social media is the key reason why we forget gratitude.
C．Modern lifestyle have no effect on expressing gratitude.
D．All the younger generation feel they're the centre of the world.

Some people often wonder whether they are fighting a battle with their genes to maintain a healthy weight. In fact, researchers have provided plenty of evidence that people are born with tendencies to be lighter or heavier. For example, studies of identical twins have revealed great similarity in their overall weight. Part of this similarity may be explained by the finding that some people are born to burn a lot of calories just through ordinary day-to-day activities while others are not. Those who are not are more at risk for weight gain.
Researchers have discovered some of the actual genetic mechanisms (机制) that may make some individuals more likely to be obese. For example, a gene has been found that appears to control signals to the brain that enough fat has been stored in the body in the course of a meal—so the individual should stop eating. The gene influences the production of leptin (瘦蛋白), which keeps appetite under control. If leptin doesn't work well, it is likely that individuals will continue to eat. Thus the gene that controls leptin appears to have a critical influence on the potential for obesity.
The confirmation that leptin plays a role in weight control has encouraged researchers to identify and understand other weight-related genes. Recent attention has focused on a gene called GAD2. GAD2 helps control the amount of the neurotransmitter (神经递质) GABA. In general, when more GABA is available, appetite is increased. For that reason, people who have a form of GAD2 that allows more GABA to be available may be at risk for overeating. You can see that GAD2 is not directly an obesity gene. Rather it has an indirect influence on obesity through its direct influence on GABA.
Genetic research holds out the promise of innovative solutions to obesity. Researchers hope that an understanding of the link between genus and weight control will enable them to provide new drug treatments. Nonetheless, even the most optimistic researchers provide a warning: "Innovative drugs will be effective only when they are used along with lifestyle changes."
12．How does the author develop Paragraph 1
A．By giving an example. B．By making an assumption.
C．By asking questions. D．By reasoning and analyzing.
13．What does the underlined word "obese" in Paragraph 2mean
A．Powerful. B．Fat. C．Active. D．Outgoing.
14．What do researchers suggest doing in the last paragraph
A．Taking new drugs. B．Understanding genetic effects.
C．Keeping a healthy lifestyle. D．Trying to adjust GAD2.
15．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．The Sorts of Genus Helping You Keep Thin
B．The Reason Why You Become Too Heavy
C．How Does Genetics Contribute to Obesity
D．What Influence Does Food Have on Weight

How to Limit Your Environmental Impact While Travelling
Travelling unlocks a world of endless possibilities and adventures, allowing us to hike through breathtaking landscapes, encounter kangaroos and deer in their natural habitat, and witness the power of volcanoes. However, tourism can also be harmful to the environment. Increased plastic waste and noise pollution can damage ecosystems. 16． .
Try to travel by land instead of air.
17． , it is typically one of the most polluting forms of transport. Taking the train or driving in some countries may be better options. For example, if you're heading to Las Vegas from Los Angeles, driving for around four hours emits (排放) around 75% less CO2 compared to the one-hour flight (provided you have several friends with you).
Be a responsible hotel guest.
A typical hotel uses about 73,000 gallons of water per year. Laundering towels (洗熨毛巾) is an energy-and-water-consuming process. 18． . By doing so, you'll reduce your environmental impact.
Make the most of safe tap water (自来水).
Drinking tap water may come as a shock to many travellers. 19． , avoid bottled options. Not only are they more expensive, but they have a higher level of pollution compared to treated tap water. Instead, carry a bottle and refill it wherever you can.
20． . When visiting different destinations, we should recognize the importance of protecting the natural beauty. We mustn't throw rubbish everywhere. And we should avoid activities that may harm wildlife. Additionally, supporting local conservation efforts, such as participating in community-led clean-up projects, can make a positive impact on the local environment.
A. Respect the local environment
B. Explore with big tour companies
C. While air travel can often be quicker
D. The airlines still have 2,100 new planes on order
E. But when you're in countries where tap water is safe to consume
F. Thankfully, there are ways to limit our impact on the environment
G. Thus many hotels often put up signs asking you to re-use your towels

He gritted his teeth (咬紧牙关), his face pressed against the rough surface and reached for the next, hold. "Done!" he called down from the top. "Now let go of the rock and walk down as I showed you," said Rick. "It's perfectly safe." Stevie did as instructed, and Rick started to let him down slowly. "Well done," said Rick when Stevie got to the bottom.
Then someone pointed out that Mr Taylor hadn't done any climbing himself." I plan to, "said Mr Taylor." But I'll need a partner, someone I can really trust.

It's one of the biggest challenges in higher education today: What do you do with the nearly one in five working-age adults who have some college experience, but no degree
Sokeo Ros was one of them. "I just hated community college," he says. "I made up my mind: I'm never going back to school. I have all these debts, and I don't want to waste my time." Ros,34, was born in Thailand. He dropped out of two colleges, switching majors several times. Meanwhile, he taught dance in Providence, R. I. , struggling to raise his daughter. But in 2012, he found College Unbound that accepts adults, like Ros.
College Unbound is the creation of educator Dennis Littky He is devoted to helping adults make their own path to a degree through College Unbound. Nearly all the students can get scholarship. They are paired one-on-one with advisers who help them make a plan that combines a job with online classes and independent research. Students create online works and show their live exhibitions.
Right now,College Unbound has about 75 students. It makes a great effort to keep the total cost per student under $10,000 per year. So far, the approach seems to be working:85 percent of its students have returned for a second year;60 percent of graduates take less than two years to complete their bachelor's degrees. And nearly nine of 10 College Unbound alumni (校友) are employed full-time.
Littky says College Unbound's goal is to create a new learning experience giving students more than just job training or qualifications. At last it lets adults understand lifelong learning is important for them.
Sokeo Ros experienced that. "At first, I just wanted to get a degree. But I kind of fell in love with the idea that learning is a lifelong experience."
4．What do we know about Sokeo Ros
A．He always wants to continue his study.

Last year, I baked biscuits for complete strangers to say "thank you". I'd had to call 999 because I found my husband unconscious on the floor. Within minutes, a police car arrived and soon my husband received medical care in hospital.
A week later, when I dropped off still-warm biscuits and presented a thank-you note at the police station, the policemen thanked me for delivering gifts.
I drove away feeling light and happy. Later, I realized that my natural high might have been more than it seemed. Research has shown that sharing gratitude has positive effects on health. People who express gratitude will increase their happiness levels, lower their blood pressure and get better sleep.
What about people who receive gratitude Research has confirmed that when people receive thanks, they experience positive emotions. "Those are happy surprises," says Jo-Ann Tsang, a professor of psychology. When someone is thanked, he's more likely to return the favouror pass kindness on, and his chances of being helpful again doubles, probably because he enjoys feeling socially valued.
The give-and-take of gratitude also deepens relationships. Studies show that when your loved ones regularly express gratitude, making you feel appreciated, you're more likely to return appreciative feelings, which leads to more satisfactory in your relationships.
Nowadays, however, many people don't express gratitude. Our modern lifestyle may be to blame. With commercial and social media, everything is speeding the younger generation to feel they're the centre of the world. If it's all about them, why thank others
Why not thank others Just take a look at how many positive effects can saying "thank you" have on personal health—and the well-being of others.
If you aren't particularly grateful, I strongly suggest you learn to be. People who are instructed to keep gratitude journals, in which they write down positive things that happen to them, cultivate（培养） gratitude over time.
8．What's the purpose of mentioning the author's own experience
A．To make readers excited.
B．To introduce the topic of the text.
C．To share the way to bake biscuits.
D．To sing high praise for the policemen.
9．What benefit can people gain from expressing gratitude according to the text
A．They will sleep longer.
B．Their blood pressure may be lowered.
C．They will be more beautiful.
D．Their level of production is increased.
10．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．The ways to return the favour.
B．The chances of being helpful again.
C．The positive emotions when expressing gratitude.
D．People's feelings and reaction after being thanked.
11．What can we learn from the text
A．Writing gratitude diaries is a good way to cultivate gratitude.
B．Social media is the key reason why we forget gratitude.
C．Modern lifestyle have no effect on expressing gratitude.
D．All the younger generation feel they're the centre of the world.

Some people often wonder whether they are fighting a battle with their genes to maintain a healthy weight. In fact, researchers have provided plenty of evidence that people are born with tendencies to be lighter or heavier. For example, studies of identical twins have revealed great similarity in their overall weight. Part of this similarity may be explained by the finding that some people are born to burn a lot of calories just through ordinary day-to-day activities while others are not. Those who are not are more at risk for weight gain.
Researchers have discovered some of the actual genetic mechanisms (机制) that may make some individuals more likely to be obese. For example, a gene has been found that appears to control signals to the brain that enough fat has been stored in the body in the course of a meal—so the individual should stop eating. The gene influences the production of leptin (瘦蛋白), which keeps appetite under control. If leptin doesn't work well, it is likely that individuals will continue to eat. Thus the gene that controls leptin appears to have a critical influence on the potential for obesity.
The confirmation that leptin plays a role in weight control has encouraged researchers to identify and understand other weight-related genes. Recent attention has focused on a gene called GAD2. GAD2 helps control the amount of the neurotransmitter (神经递质) GABA. In general, when more GABA is available, appetite is increased. For that reason, people who have a form of GAD2 that allows more GABA to be available may be at risk for overeating. You can see that GAD2 is not directly an obesity gene. Rather it has an indirect influence on obesity through its direct influence on GABA.
Genetic research holds out the promise of innovative solutions to obesity. Researchers hope that an understanding of the link between genus and weight control will enable them to provide new drug treatments. Nonetheless, even the most optimistic researchers provide a warning: "Innovative drugs will be effective only when they are used along with lifestyle changes."

【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；科普类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，研究人员发现了一些可能使某些人更容易肥胖的实际遗传机制。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和标题归纳四个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
12．考查推理判断。根据第一段"Some people often wonder whether they are fighting a battle with their genes to maintain a healthy weight. In fact, researchers have provided plenty of evidence that people are born with tendencies to be lighter or heavier. For example, studies of identical twins have revealed great similarity in their overall weight. Part of this similarity may be explained by the finding that some people are born to burn a lot of calories just through ordinary day-to-day activities while others are not. Those who are not are more at risk for weight gain."有些人常常想知道，他们是否在与自己的基因进行一场战斗，以保持健康的体重。事实上，研究人员已经提供了大量证据，证明人们天生就有更轻或更重的倾向。例如，对同卵双胞胎的研究表明，他们的总体体重非常相似。研究发现，有些人天生就能通过日常活动燃烧大量卡路里，而另一些人则不然，这可以部分解释这种相似性。那些不这样做的人体重增加的风险更大。可知，作者举例说明展开第一段。故选A。
13．考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的"For example, a gene has been found that appears to control signals to the brain that enough fat has been stored in the body in the course of a meal—so the individual should stop eating. The gene influences the production of leptin (瘦蛋白), which keeps appetite under control. If leptin doesn't work well, it is likely that individuals will continue to eat. Thus the gene that controls leptin appears to have a critical influence on the potential for obesity."例如，已经发现一种基因似乎可以控制向大脑发出的信号，即在用餐过程中体内储存了足够的脂肪，因此个体应该停止进食。这种基因影响瘦素的产生，而瘦素能控制食欲。如果瘦素不起作用，人们很可能会继续吃。因此，控制瘦素的基因似乎对肥胖的可能性有关键影响；以及"Researchers have discovered some of the actual genetic mechanisms (机制) that may make some individuals more likely to be"研究人员已经发现了一些实际的遗传机制，这些机制可能使一些人更容易肥胖。划线词 obese 意思是"肥胖的"。故选B。
14．考查细节理解。根据最后一段"Nonetheless, even the most optimistic researchers provide a warning: ‘Innovative drugs will be effective only when they are used along with lifestyle changes.'"然而，即使是最乐观的研究人员也提出了警告："创新药物只有在与生活方式的改变一起使用时才会有效。"可知，研究人员建议保持健康的生活方式。故选C。
15．考查标题归纳。根据第二段"Researchers have discovered some of the actual genetic mechanisms (机制) that may make some individuals more likely to be obese."研究人员已经发现了一些实际的遗传机制，这些机制可能使一些人更容易肥胖；结合文章主要讲的是研究人员发现了一些可能使某些人更容易肥胖的实际遗传机制。可知，"基因是如何导致肥胖的？"适合做本文标题。故选C。

The boys at the back of the school bus were restless. Stevie did his best to ignore the others. ""Settled own!"Mr Taylor said. "We'll be there soon. Wait till you see the climbing walls. You'll be very happy." Stevie hadn't liked this "Boys Rulz" club from the start. They were troublemakers. Mom had made him join because she was worried that he didn't seem to be fitting in. It was n this fault, thought Stevie, school was boring. None of the teachers trusted him, and no special boy's group was to change that.
All the boys stared up in wonder at the huge climbing walls. Stevie looked down at his thin arms and wondered how he could climb up that. Mr Taylor and a man called Rick helped the boys get into their harnesses (保护带) and showed them how to climb up. "Now find a partner and get them to check all your straps (带子) and everything," said Mr Taylor. The boys quickly paired off, leaving Stevie standing there alone. "Cool, you're with me," said Rick, holding up his hand for a high-five. Stevie high-five d him back weakly. Stevie was on a tiny wall which the others had called the "baby wall". He gritted his teeth (咬紧牙关), his face pressed against the rough surface and reached for the next, hold. "Done!" he called down from the top. "Now let go of the rock and walk down as I showed you," said Rick. "It's perfectly safe." Stevie did as instructed, and Rick started to let him down slowly. "Well done," said Rick when Stevie got to the bottom.
Then someone pointed out that Mr Taylor hadn't done any climbing himself." I plan to, "said Mr Taylor." But I'll need a partner, someone I can really trust. "The boys volunteered actively, but Mr Taylor pretended he hadn't heard. He looked around the group. "How about you, Stevie " he said at last. "Fancy being my belayer " A be layer is somebody who controls how you come down, the one that stops you from falling.
要求：
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。
Stevie looked up, greatly surprised.
"Ready to let me down " Mr Taylor called down to Stevie.
【答案】Stevie looked up, greatly surprised. He thought he'd been invisible. "I'm not so sure," he smiled weakly. But Mr Taylor came up to him, patted him on the arm firmly and, before he could refuse, said "Let's do it." The boys gathered around. Then Stevie and Mr Taylor checked each other's straps—the way they had been taught. With everything ready, Mr Taylor began to make his way up. Watching carefully as the teacher climbed, Stevie could feel his heart pounding fast and his palms sweating. Finally, Mr Taylor reached the top, and the whole place burst into cheering.
"Ready to let me down " Mr Taylor called down to Stevie. Stevie took a deep breath and reviewed what Rick had taught them about how to use the belaying device. At last, he looked up and said loudly, "OK!" Then the teacher let go of the wall and began to walk down. Stevie let the rope slip through his hands bit-by-bit cautiously and watched the teacher's movement closely. He was so nervous that he could even hear his heart beating fast. Luckily, things went smoothly! Hearing the teacher say "You're really trustworthy!", Stevie smiled with relaxation and great joy.
