层级二 主题阅读训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A__体裁:记叙文__主题语境:人物故事__难度:★★☆☆☆
As a mushroom scientist, you are vastly outnumbered, with estimates suggesting that there are between 2.2 million and 3.8 million species of fungi (真菌), the majority of which are yet to be identified. However, professionals in the field are not alone in their efforts to uncover new species. An enthusiastic community of amateurs has emerged, bridging the gap between professionals and non-professionals.
These amateurs have even made significant discoveries. One such amateur is Taylor Lockwood, a 74-year-old mushroom enthusiast and professional photographer.
In 1984, while living on the Mendocino coast of California, Taylor Lockwood developed a fascination with mushrooms. “Outside my cottage were these amazing mushrooms,” he says. “And it was as if these mushrooms looked at me and said, ‘Taylor, go out and tell the world how pretty we are.’” Lockwood answered their call and purchased camera equipment to capture their true nature.
His passion for photographing mushrooms was so intense that he would even dig holes next to the mushrooms to get the perfect angle for his shots.
In the Monongahela National Forest, Taylor Lockwood discovered an unusual mushroom that looked like tiny fingers wearing off-white gloves. Upon deeper investigation, fungi researcher Amy Rossman confirmed that it was a “hazel glove” mushroom, which is a rare find. “Mushrooms are not like plants,” Rossman says. “They don't come up at the same time every year, and so sometimes it can be decades between when a fungus fruits.” Rossman says that's why it's so valuable to have people like Taylor Lockwood searching through the forest with a trained eye.
A few years ago, Taylor Lockwood realized that still photos weren't sufficient, so he chose to create time-lapse (延时拍摄的) videos of mushrooms. “When I do time-lapse, I see so much life happening around the mushrooms—insects, worms and other small creatures interacting with them,” he says. Lockwood's love for art is evident in his approach to filming mushrooms over time. Although he appreciates the scientific aspect of his work, he identifies himself as an artist at heart.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了Taylor Lockwood,一名蘑菇爱好者和摄影师,在真菌学领域做出了重大贡献。

B__体裁:说明文__主题语境:太阳能帽子__难度:★★★★☆__
[2024·昆明高二下期末]When working outside, there's a constant battle of wearing a hat to get shade over your face, but then having a sweaty head whenever your hat is on. With the evolving technology, hats have stepped forward as well. Now, there is a brilliant new invention to take care of this problem. It's called the Kool Breeze Solar Hat.
It's a solar-powered straw hat that has an integrated fan right on the front, which blows fresh air inside the hat right onto the top of your head. A hole in the rear of the hat keeps air constantly flowing from front to back. This way, you'll have shade over your neck and face from UV rays, while keeping your head and hair inside the hat from getting too hot and sweaty. Since it's completely solar-powered using a solar panel (太阳能板) right on the top of the hat, there is no need for batteries, but the fan will only run while in direct sunlight.
If you are outside or sweating a lot in hot weather, it's a perfect piece of head wear to use. Whether you are working on the yard, fishing on the boat, or kayaking, it provides great sun protection and allows you to enjoy outdoor activities.
It has become the best-seller on many websites where customers have a larger selection of sizes and designs. The solar-powered fan straw hat comes in 4 different sizes to accommodate most sized heads, from small to extra-large.
Here are some highly praised comments from users: “The solar-powered straw hat is truly outstanding. It combines functionality and fashion perfectly, and I can't imagine going outdoors without it.” “This hat is a game-changer! It's efficient, lightweight, and gives me the freedom to charge my devices on the go. It's a must-have!”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的太阳能帽子,可以提供阴凉并保持头部凉爽其工作原理以及评价。

A.It possesses constant battery power.
B.It looks stylish on various occasions.
C.It has an advanced fan that can warm air.
D.It provides shade and keeps the head cool.
答案:D 
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“This way, you'll have shade over your neck and face from UV rays, while keeping your head and hair inside the hat from getting too hot and sweaty.”可知,Kool Breeze太阳能帽的特点是提供阴凉并保持头部凉爽。故选D。
6.How does the hat function
A.By absorbing the sunlight.
B.By integrating with the air-conditioner.
C.By blowing fresh air inside.

A.Be typical of.
B.Be unique to.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A__体裁:记叙文__主题语境:旅行__难度:★★☆☆☆
[2024·安徽蚌埠高二下期末]My parents had purchased an Island Packet 445 ten months prior, and the day to board this boat had finally come. I was 11 years old and knew absolutely nothing about this cruising (海上航游) lifestyle my father had been speaking so highly of for the previous five years. The only thing I knew for sure was that I didn't want to leave my home. My father was excited, my mother nervous, my brother disinterested, and I sullen. I was not at all eager about this change in my lifestyle.
The first three months on the boat had not been very easy. What my dad called an adjustment period I called a nightmare. But, after three months of traveling, we had a lucky break. In La Paz, there was another cruising boat with a 13-year-old boy aboard. Two weeks later, Glen and I could be seen endlessly boogie boarding (趴板冲浪) the crashing waves to the beach. After meeting Glen, cruising for me began to get better and better. At some point during these months, I decided to give this cruising idea a chance.
One year later, we continued touring through the South Pacific. I was learning new skills and learning how to work independently. I often took a five-hour watch during the dark hours of long passages. This was quite a bit of responsibility to hand over to a 13-year-old, especially considering I was in charge of adjusting sails as the conditions changed, and keeping an eye and ear out for any problems. Almost everybody in the cruising community treated me as an adult while still understanding I was a child, thereby giving me the flexibility to make childish mistakes.
As of this writing, my family has now been aboard for three years. We have plans to return to Canada in 12 months and, similar to how I opposed moving onto the boat,I am now completely opposed to moving off it. I have so much fun and learn so many things on this boat that I can't imagine ever returning “home”, a place I hardly even remember.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了在作者11岁的时候,他的父母购买了一个海岛巡游套餐,全家登上了一艘游船开始了新的生活。起初作者对这种生活方式感到不安和抗拒,但通过与一位同龄的男孩Glen的相识,他开始逐渐适应并享受起这种新的生活。在旅行中,男孩学习了许多新的技能,承担了责任,并被当作成年人对待,最后作者变得舍不得下船回家了。
1.What does the underlined word “sullen” in the first paragraph probably mean
A.Upset. B.Calm.
C.Confused. D.Astonished.
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词的下文“I was not at all eager about this change in my lifestyle.”可知,作者不想在船上生活,因此此时他会不高兴,sullen意思应该是“不高兴的”。故选A。
答案:A 
2.What made the author start to embrace the cruising idea
A.Overcoming the fear of nightmares.
B.Having fun with someone of his age.
C.Learning how to work independently.
D.Making a breakthrough in boarding skills.
答案:B 
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“In La Paz, there was another cruising boat with a 13-year-old boy aboard. Two weeks later, Glen and I could be seen endlessly boogie boarding (趴板冲浪) the crashing waves to the beach. After meeting Glen, cruising for me began to get better and better. At some point during these months, I decided to give this cruising idea a chance.”可知,和同龄的Glen玩得开心让作者开始接受乘船游览的想法。故选B。
3.Which of the following words can best describe the author
A.Stubborn but reliable.
B.Childish but adaptable.
C.Inconsiderate but flexible.
D.Dependent but responsible.
答案:B 
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中“I was not at all eager about this change in my lifestyle.”和最后一段中“similar to how I opposed moving onto the boat, I am now completely opposed to moving off it ”可知,作者一开始很反感乘船游览,最后又变得舍不得下船,因此是有些孩子气的。再结合第二段中“After meeting Glen, cruising for me began to get better and better. At some point during these months, I decided to give this cruising idea a chance.”和第三段中“I was learning new skills and learning how to work independently.”可知,作者开始逐渐接受在船上生活的方式,还主动学习船上生活的技能。由此推知,他适应能力很强。故选B。
4.What can be the best title for the text
A.Benefits of the Cruising Lifestyle
B.First Day aboard Island Packet 445
C.What Motivates a Teenager to Change HisLifestyle
D.How a Young Sailor Learns to Love the Cruising Life
答案:D 
解析:标题归纳题。根据第一段中“I was not at all eager about this change in my lifestyle.”、第二段中“At some point during these months, I decided to give this cruising idea a chance.”、第三段中“I was learning new skills and learning how to work independently. I often took a five-hour watch during the dark hours of long passages.”和最后一段中“I have so much fun and learn so many things on this boat that I can't imagine ever returning ‘home’, a place I hardly even remember.”可知,作者主要叙述了自己的海岛巡游经历,起初作者对这种生活方式感到不安和抗拒,但通过与一位同龄的男孩Glen的相识,他开始逐渐适应并享受起这种新的生活。在旅行中,男孩学习了许多新的技能,承担了责任,并被当作成年人对待,最后作者变得舍不得下船回家了。故选D。
B__体裁:说明文__主题语境:海洋保护__难度:★★★☆☆__
Government agencies and volunteer groups in many places are using sea creatures to protect coastal areas from storms and rising sea levels. The idea is that large groups of oysters (牡蛎) known as colonies, can help reduce the power of waves. Powerful waves can damage lands along the edge of ocean waters.
Oysters may play an important part in dealing with the problem. Oysters are central to a project that is taking place near Vaccaro's rebuilt house. The project is being carried out by the Littoral Society. It received $1 million from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. The group has been building steel wire containers, filling them with rocks and whelk (海螺) shells and positioning them along the shoreline of Barnegat Bay.
Tiny baby oysters are attached to whelk shells and placed in the existing cages to further strengthen the shoreline. The shoreline in Vaccaro's neighborhood has lost 46 meters of beach since 1995, the Littoral Society says.
The oysters appear to be doing their job. One recent day, a strong east wind blew across the bay. But between the oysters and the shoreline, the water was much calmer, and waves gently went onto the shoreline instead of hitting it with force.
As an added benefit, the oysters help improve water quality in the bay. The Associated Press reports that a single oyster can filter (过滤) up to 190 liters of water a day.
A few kilometers south, a group called ReClam the Bay is building an oyster reef to protect the shoreline of Mordecai Island. People do not live on the island, but it protects the shoreline of Beach Haven, a town on Long Beach Island.
Volunteers fill bags with 16 kilograms of whelk shells, to which millions of baby oysters have been attached. Then volunteers move them out to the reef a few hundred yards into the ocean. They have placed 10,000 bags of oysters and whelk shells there since 2015.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们利用牡蛎保护沿海地区免受强大海浪的破坏。
5.Where do the baby oysters grow
A.On the sea rocks.
B.In steel wire cages.
C.In shallow calm water.
D.In the fishermen's houses.
答案:B 
解析:细节理解题。由第二段最后一句(该组织一直在建造钢丝容器,里面装满岩石和海螺壳,并将它们放置在巴尼加特湾海岸上)和第三段第一句(小牡蛎宝宝附着在海螺壳上,放在现有的笼子里,以进一步加强海岸线)可知,牡蛎宝宝生长在钢丝笼中。故选B。
6.What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 4
A.The sea life project works.
B.The baby oysters grow well.
C.The beach stops missing.
D.The sea pollution is dropping.
答案:A 
解析:推理判断题。第四段提到,在阻止强大的海浪破坏海水边缘陆地方面,牡蛎发挥了作用。因此,作者在第四段想告诉我们,海洋生物项目起作用了。故选A。
7.What do we know about ReClam the Bay
A.It cooperates with the Littoral Society.
B.It offers baby oysters to the Littoral Society.
C.It has the same aim as the Littoral Society.
D.It has made more progress than the Littoral Society.
答案:C 
解析:推理判断题。由第二段中的“Oysters are central to a project that is taking place near Vaccaro's rebuilt house.The project is being carried out by the Littoral Society.(牡蛎是瓦卡罗重建的房屋附近的一个项目的中心。该项目由Littoral Society实施。)”和倒数第二段第一句(向南几千米,一个名为ReClam the Bay的组织正在建造牡蛎礁,以保护Mordecai岛的海岸线)可知,ReClam the Bay和Littoral Society的目标是一样的——用牡蛎保护海岸线。故选C。
8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Oyster Farming Has Great Benefits
B.Volunteer Ocean Protection Is in Action
C.Worldwide Beaches Are Disappearing Fast
D.Little Sea Creatures Could Save Coastal Land
解析:标题归纳题。文章讲述了人们利用牡蛎保护沿海地区免受强大海浪的破坏,D项“小海洋生物可以拯救沿海土地”符合文意,适合作本文的标题。故选D。
答案:D

Two teenagers are being hailed as heroes for saving a man from an oncoming train just seconds before it arrived. Freddie Corbett, 15, and Harley Hollingworth, 16, acted swiftly when they saw a distressed man jump onto the tracks at Bolton train station in South Yorkshire over the weekend.
The friends, waiting for the last train home on Saturday night as their 11 p.m. curfew (宵禁) approached, noticed the man and heard him express his intention to end his life.
“Freddie shouted out loud to stop the man from doing such silly things. Without hesitation, he jumped onto the tracks despite the oncoming train,” Freddie's mother, Jill Corbett, told Sky News.
Harley, who also leapt onto the tracks to help, said, “I wasn't worried about the train. I just wanted to make sure Freddie got him off the tracks. We could see the train's headlights approaching. It's not a very long bend.”
“The train arrived about 45 seconds after we got off,” the man kept saying. “You're good lads. You could tell the man was struggling.” While awaiting help, Freddie and Harley had a heartfelt conversation with the man, learning about his troubles.
Gary Robinson of Network Rail praised the teenagers for their lifesaving actions. In a social media post, Gary wrote. “Tonight a male with intent to self-harm on the railway... these two lads were his angels. They dragged him off the railway and talked with him until I arrived. They undoubtedly saved his life! Kids often get a bad press, but with humanity like what these lads showed tonight, we are in safe hands! These two lads are a credit to their parents, and I can't speak highly enough about them.”
Freddie's father, Billy, from Goldthorpe, expressed his pride, saying both parents felt it was “about time we had some good news and good press about our kids.” Harley's father, Dale, added, “I was buzzing. I'm bursting with pride. He's just a typical grumpy teenager, but clearly, he has a heart of gold.”

My fingers flew across the keyboard as I typed the final sentence of my essay. I watched the sun rise from the window as I pulled yet another all-nighter. I was a hardworking “A” student pursuing two degrees. I was successful, continuously earning awards, scholarships, and recognition. However, underneath it all, I was often stressed to the bone.
If you have ever found yourself in the middle of a library feeling totally exhausted and overwhelmed, I see you. Stanford University calls it duck__syndrome,__a phenomenon commonly found in college students. Like ducks, students appear calm on the surface, yet paddle (划水) desperately underneath just to stay afloat.
Duck syndrome can lead students to feel anxious, depressed, and inadequate among their peers. Besides the stress of a college environment, these struggles may be especially common for students whose families overly stress achievement.
Like the hot tea kettles (壶) ready to burst, many college students are dealing with similar challenges, even if their calm behaviors suggest otherwise. While there is no direct cure for duck syndrome, leaning into community can be a powerful tool for reminding us that we are not alone.
When I reflect on my undergraduate experience with duck syndrome, I remember how every all-nighter brought me closer to fulfilling a task, but pushed me further away from my desirable well-being. Whenever I encounter a college student today, I share the same advice I wish I would have listened to years ago: Slow down. Take a nap. Don't forget to eat. Breathe. College goes by in the blink (眨) of an eye, and you won't remember much if you don't learn to take care of yourself.
After all, ducks need their rest, too.

本文是一篇说明文,作者通过讲述自己的经历,阐述了大学生们经历的“鸭子综合征”,即表面平静,内心压力过大,并给出了建议,慢下来,建立轻松的生活方式。

D
Over 70% of the earth's surface is covered in water, but it's undrinkable. Scientists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) have modeled a system that can collect water vapor (水蒸气) from above the ocean surface and freeze it into fresh drinking water at a large scale.
Water shortage is an issue that's projected to get worse, as climate change makes dry areas even drier. The oceans, home to over 96% of water on Earth, represent a huge potential reservoir (a place to store water), but desalination (海水淡化) is a challenging and complex prospect to scale up because of the poisonous wastewater it produces.
But nature already has a pretty good desalination system—the sun is heating up the surface of the ocean and evaporating water out of it, which of course goes on to become rain. In a new study, the UIUC team came up with a method to use this resource. The team proposes that structures could be built several kilometers offshore to obtain air rich in water vapor from above the ocean surface. That air can then be piped back to land and turned into water. This fresh water could then be used for drinking, agriculture, or whatever else a region needs it for. The whole system could be powered by offshore wind farms and land-based solar panels.
The researchers evaluated 14 cities around the world, analyzing how much water could be collected based on the offshore air in those locations. Based on their models, the scientists estimated that these structures could collect between 37.6 billion and 78.3 billion liters of water per year, depending on the conditions in a specific location.
The team says that the solution is pretty good, since it works like the natural water cycle except that the vapor is guided to where it's needed. “The system we are proposing will be useful under climate change. This provides a much needed approach for adaptation to climate change, particularly to populations living in dry and semi-dry regions of the world,” said Afeefa Rahman, the co-author of the study.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文,科学家建立了一个系统模型,该系统可以从海洋表面上方收集水蒸气,并将其大规模冻结成新鲜的饮用水。文章介绍了该系统的工作方式以及未来的应用。
32.Why do scientists design this vapor-collecting system
A.To improve water quality.
B.To relieve the water shortages.
C.To approach climate change.
D.To reduce the pollution of water.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段可知,随着气候变化使干旱地区更加干燥,缺水问题预计将变得更加严重。科学家设计这种蒸汽收集系统是为了缓解水资源短缺。
33.What do we know about the vapor-collecting system from the text
A.It's mainly powered by batteries.
B.The water collected by it is rich in mineral.
C.It makes full use of the natural water cycle.
D.It should be built as close to the ocean as possible.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段可知,太阳加热海洋表面,蒸发其中的水并变成雨。UIUC 团队提出了一种利用这种资源的方法:在离岸几公里处建造一些结构体,以从海面上获取富含水蒸气的空气。然后,这些空气可以通过管道输送回陆地,变成水。由此推断,蒸汽收集系统充分利用自然水循环。
34.What can be learned from the fourth Paragraph
A.The system could be applied around the world.
B.More and more cities would bring in the system.
C.The researchers have built structures in 14 cities to collect water.
D.The researchers made great efforts before introducing the system.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段,研究人员评估了世界上14个城市的近海空气可以收集多少水。根据他们的模型,科学家们估计这些结构体每年可以收集376亿到783亿升水,具体取决于特定地点的条件。由此可知,研究人员在引入该系统之前做了大量的努力。
35.What is Afeefa Rahman's attitude towards the system
A.Negative. B.Concerned.
C.Skeptical. D.Optimistic.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,这为适应气候变化,特别是生活在世界干旱和半干旱地区的人口,提供了一种急需的方法。由此推知,Afeefa对这个系统持乐观的态度。
答案:D
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。
Every living thing depends on the ocean. So when we hear the ocean is in trouble from the effects of overfishing, climate change, and pollution, it's easy to feel powerless. __36__ But there are plenty of actions you can take that will make a big difference for the ocean.
__37__
The more you learn about the ocean, the better prepared you'll be to inspire change—and help others do the same. Thankfully, there are many ways to educate yourself about the ocean and the challenges it faces, from books and documentaries to websites, museums, art exhibits, and more.
Check the label
Help keep fisheries healthy by choosing sustainable seafood when you at grocery shop or dine out. __38__ Look for the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) labels. Their blue and green fish logos (标识) on your seafood ensure your fish can be traced back to sustainably-managed fisheries and farms.
Reduce your carbon emissions
__39__ Decrease the effects of climate change on the ocean by cutting your carbon footprint at home: turn off lights when you're not using them, walk or ride your bike to work, and demand renewable energy options in your community.
Travel smarter
Consider booking your next trip through a responsible travel company that's committed to protecting wildlife and using guides who are aware of rules and best practices. Once you arrive at your destination, be respectful of marine life and habitats. And be careful about your purchases. __40__
A.Increase your ocean IQ.
B.Skip the single-use plastics.
C.What should be done to travel responsibly
D.What's the easiest way to make sure your seafood is sustainable
E.Many of these issues will require leadership from governments and businesses.
F.In the last decades, the ocean has absorbed 90% of the extra heat created by burning fossil fuels.
G.Purchasing items like shark products damages delicate ecosystems and threatens endangered species.

38.答案:D
解析:设空处承上启下,起过渡作用。设空处上文指出去食品杂货店购物或者外出就餐时要选择可持续海鲜食品,设空处下文具体介绍如何通过标识挑选绿色海鲜,由此可推知,设空处应当提出如何挑选海鲜的问题,D项符合语境。D项中的sustainable与上文中的sustainable构成原词复现,且D项中的the easiest way指代下文中的内容。
39.答案:F
解析:设空处位于段首,起引出话题的作用。根据该段小标题可知,本段主要介绍在生活中要减少碳排放,F项符合语境。F项中的the extra heat created by burning fossil fuels与小标题中的carbon emissions相呼应。
40.答案:G
解析:设空处位于段末,起承接上文、呼应本段主题的作用。设空处上文指出在旅行中要注意自己的采购行为,设空处应当在此基础上进一步解释说明,与主题呼应,G项符合语境。G项中的Purchasing与上文中的purchases构成原词复现,且G项中的damages delicate ecosystems and threatens endangered species与上文中的protecting wildlife构成同现关系。

假定你是李华,你校英语周计划举办一场主题为“The protection of sea creatures”的演讲比赛。请你就此写一篇演讲稿,内容包括:
1.简述海洋生物的现状;
2.分析危害海洋生物的因素;
3.呼吁大家保护海洋生物。
注意:1.写作词数应为80个左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
Hello, everyone,
It's a great honor for me to make a speech about the protection of sea creatures. The past few years have witnessed a rapid reduction in the number of sea creatures, some even being in danger of extinction. There are various reasons behind this. To begin with, people are not aware of the importance of protecting the marine environment, so large quantities of pollutants have been poured into the ocean. Besides, some people hunt illegally for profit, which results in a decrease in the types of sea creatures. Therefore, it's high time we took some effective measures to protect them.
That's all. Thanks for listening!
第二节(满分25分)
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。
Caitlyn stepped into the warm and wet sands. The white waves raced over her feet and up her legs and then pulled back again. Caitlyn was on vacation with her family in a nearby coastal town, and she loved playing in the ocean water.
“Ouch!” cried the girl, as her foot stepped on something hard. She looked down and it was a large shell (贝壳). Caitlyn bent down to pick it up. It was a pretty pink shell with points and an opening that looked like a horn (号). She held it up to her ear, hoping to hear the whooshing sound (呼啸声). Instead, she heard something quite different.
“Hey kid! Want to hear a joke?”
Caitlyn nearly dropped the shell. Holding it back up to her ear, she tried again.
“Why don't fish play basketball?” the shell asked.
“I... I don't know,” Caitlyn whispered.
“Because they are afraid of the net! Ha, ha!” laughed the shell. Caitlyn looked around to see if anyone was looking at her. Nobody was.
“That's, uh, funny,” she replied. She didn't really know what was going on.
“Why don't oysters (蚌) share their pearls?” It seemed to be waiting for a reply.
“Uh, I'm not sure.” Caitlyn said. Was she dreaming
The shell answered its own joke. “Because they're ‘shellfish’! Ha, ha!”
The girl laughed. On and on the shell went, being silly and making jokes. Caitlyn sat in the shallow water and listened for an hour. When her mother called to her, saying it was time to go, the girl laid the shell gently on the sands. She promised to come back the next day. And she did.
On the last day of her vacation, Caitlyn decided she couldn't leave the shell behind.
“You're coming home with me,” she said to the pretty shell. She thought it would be happy.
“My home is in the ocean,” it replied, without any laughter in its voice.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
But Caitlyn couldn't bear to go home without it.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Gently, she lowered it back under the water.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But Caitlyn couldn't bear to go home without it. Despite the shell's protest, she carefully wrapped it in a soft cloth and placed it in her bag, determined to find a way to make it happy. As they drove back home, Caitlyn brainstormed ideas on how to create a suitable environment for her new friend. She imagined a large aquarium filled with saltwater and colorful coral, where the shell could feel at home.
Gently, she lowered it back under the water. As they arrived at the beach on the last day of their vacation, Caitlyn realized that taking the shell away was not the right thing to do. With a heavy heart, she walked back to the spot where she had found it and knelt down. The shell seemed to sense her intention, and its voice was filled with a sense of relief when it spoke again. “Thank you for understanding,” it said softly. Caitlyn carefully placed the shell back in the shallow water, watching as it settled into the sand. As she turned to leave, she felt a sense of peace knowing that she had made the right decision.

4.作定语
动词不定式作定语,通常位于所修饰的词之后,即作后置定语,说明被修饰词的特征。
(1)抽象名词ability, attempt, chance, courage, decision, effort, failure, promise, way, wish等后常接动词不定式作定语。
(2)序数词、形容词最高级或the only/the last/the next等词后或被这些词修饰的名词后,也常接动词不定式作定语。
Can you think up a good way to deal with the ever increasing prices
你们能想出一个对付日益上涨的物价的好办法吗?
I've got my wife and son to look after.
我还有妻子和儿子需要照顾。
But she gave up the chance to go abroad.
但是她放弃了出国的机会。
Who was the last one to leave the classroom last night
昨晚谁是最后一个离开教室的?
[名师点津] 
(1)如果动词不定式和被修饰词之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,则动词不定式多半表示未来的动作,翻译时常需在动词不定式前加“要”字。
(2)在处于动宾关系的情况下,如果动词不定式是不及物动词,其后要加一个结构上或含义上所需的介词。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A__体裁:记叙文__主题语境:海豹救助__难度:★★★☆☆
[2024·河北邯郸高二下期末]Lynda Doughty, a marine biologist, developed a passion for marine wildlife during her childhood. Growing up along the coast of Maine, she witnessed the impact of human activity on marine mammals and she made it her life's work to protect them. “I feel this intense responsibility to help these animals,” Lynda said. “And, really, this is what I was put on this Earth to do.”
Harbor seals are among the most common mammals found along the East Coast, and they face various threats to their well-being, including fishing nets and illegal feeding, chemical pollutants, as well as boat and propeller (螺旋桨) injuries.
Earlier in her career, she worked for a marine mammal emergency response organization that eventually closed due to lack of funding. To fill the gap left by the group, Lynda started her own non-profit organization—Marine Mammals of Maine in 2011. It has since provided response and medical care for more than 3,000 marine mammals.
Lynda's team operates a 24-hour hotline that responds to calls regarding marine mammals in danger. Their permit allows them to respond to mammals stranded (搁浅) within 2,500 miles of the coastline, and her team only offers help if the mammal is in critical condition. Critically ill mammals are transported to Lynda's center and nursed back to health. Seals typically require three or more months of professional care treatment before they are released back into the ocean.
In addition to mammal rescues, Marine Mammals of Maine conducts important research to learn about marine mammal habitats and human impacts. Marine mammals can give us clues about the ocean's health, which ultimately affects human well-being as well. The organization also helps promote marine conservation among youth and the local community. In addition, they instruct the public on what to do, and what not to do, when encountering wild species like harbor seals.
1.What do Lynda's words mean
A.She was born along the coast of Maine.
B.She ignored the impact of human activity.
C.She did her work with a sense of mission.

3.What can we learn about Lynda's team from Paragraph 4
A.It only treats critically ill seals.
B.It rescues marine mammals in danger.
C.It protects all endangered marine mammals.
D.It stops people from fishing marine mammals.
答案:B

A.To state younger generations need to be instructed.
B.To stress the severe situations that marine life faces.
C.To mention other social contributions of Lynda's team.

B__体裁:说明文__主题语境:海洋探索__难度:★★★☆☆
One of humanity's greatest achievements has been mastering routes across the world's munities separated by thousands of miles have been brought into contact. Customs have been decisively changed by the movement of ships across the oceans. No one drank tea in medieval (中世纪的) Europe, but once contact had been made with the tea-drinking Chinese, tea became the favorite of millions of people from Sweden to the United States.
We tend to think that the opening of the oceans was the work of great explorers like Christopher Columbus, especially the 15th-century pioneers who edged__their__way through uncharted waters to southern Africa, the Indian Ocean and the spice lands of the Indies. But while these men did give the Age of Discovery its name, they didn't start the exploration of the world's oceans.
There were scores of merchants who developed trade links across the world and started modern globalization. These were the people who really mastered the oceans and brought the continents into contact. Already around 2500 BCE, merchants were setting out from what is now Iraq, the seat of the ancient Sumerian civilization, carrying silver ingots (银锭) to India. On the way, they got copper (铜) from Oman and brought precious objects such as carnelian (红玛瑙) from India. The Indian Ocean became one of the great channels of trade between nations.
By 1500 CE, the Portuguese had begun to show interest in what the Atlantic might offer. That interest had resulted in the settlement of unoccupied islands. When European sailors started entering the Pacific and the Indian Ocean in the 16th century, they found a lively maritime world that they could never truly dominate. Since then, the oceans have only continued to tie the world together.
In the 21st century, however, new factors have changed entirely the way goods are carried across the seas. The great port cities of the world have been replaced by automated docks. Container ships carry many thousands of containers. Business today operates on a much larger level than it did just two decades ago. And yet, through trade and cultural exchange, the seas continue to connect even the most distant lands.
5.Why does the author mention tea drinking in the first paragraph
A.To discuss the health benefits of drinking tea.
B.To emphasize the popularity of tea in medieval Europe.
C.To show how Europeans started to adopt Chinese customs.
D.To highlight the spread of cultural practices through ocean contact.
答案:D 
解析:写作目的题。根据第一段中的“Customs have been...the United States.”可知,作者提到喝茶是为了强调日益紧密的海洋联系使得各地的文化习俗得以传播。
6.What does the underlined part “edged their way” in Paragraph 2 mean
A.Dominated the maritime world.
B.Settled on unoccupied islands quickly.
C.Successfully established a convenient route.
D.Carefully moved forward under challenging situations.
答案:D 
解析:词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“the opening of the oceans was the work of ... uncharted waters to... the Indies”可知,人们倾向于认为海洋探索起源于15世纪一些伟大的探险家,他们穿过未知的水域抵达遥远的地方,由此可推知,他们的航海之路并不容易,edged their way在此意为“在充满挑战的情况下徐图前进”。
7.Who are the pioneers of ocean exploration according to the text
A.The Portuguese settlers of remote islands.
B.The great explorers during the Age of Discovery.
C.The merchants from the ancient Sumerian civilization.
D.The European sailors who entered the Pacific and the Indian Ocean.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,在公元前2500年苏美尔商人就开始将银锭海运到古印度,由此可推知,他们才是海洋探索的先驱。
答案:C 
8.What is a suitable title for the text
A.The Impact of Tea on Global Trade
B.Ocean Exploration Changed Human History
C.Merchants Advanced the Development of Capitalism
D.The Transformation of Ocean Shipping in the 21st Century

答案:B
