(23-24高一下·江苏连云港·期中)Do you really need a new phone every 2 years
If you’re looking to replace or upgrade your smartphone in the coming year, think it over. 1 Do you simply have the desire to get the new, shiny tech There are some issues to consider besides the new device’s affordability.
Our desire to always have the newest smartphone comes at a high environmental cost. According to Swappie, which repairs and resells iPhones, 1.4 billion new smartphones forecast to be shipped this year will generate 146 million tons of planet-warming emissions. 2
What can you do
Resist the desire to upgrade. If your phone still works, get as much life as you can out of it. “The greenest smart-phone is the one you already own,” Stratton said.
Get it fixed. If your phone breaks, get it repaired directly by the manufacturer or take it to a store to repair your phone brand. 3
Sell it instead of throwing it. You can sell your used smartphone to specialized repairing companies like Swappie to give it a second life. 4 This is because of the materials used to produce them.
5 If your phone is completely broken and cannot be sold, you can still recycle it. You just need to do a little bit of research into how and where to correctly recycle it.
A.Make it functioned.
B.Recycle it properly.
C.Do you really need a new phone
D.Broken phones can still be valuable.
E.Where can you get a new smartphone
F.83% of them come from producing, shipping and first-year usage.
G.A broken or out-of-order phone can often be fixed through easy repairs.
(23-24高一下·江苏镇江·期中)In many ways, life has become far more comfortable and convenient in the past few decades. 1 Here, we look at three of the most serious environmental problems we are currently facing.
Air Pollution
The main cause of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels by vehicles and power plants. Other human activities, such as construction and the burning of waste, also contribute to air pollution. The effects on our health can be very serious.
You can easily contribute to reducing air pollution by only using a car to make journeys when it’s absolutely necessary. 2
Global Warming
Global warming is the increase in the temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air and oceans. It’s caused by the build-up of carbon dioxide and other pollutants in the atmosphere. These trap the Sun’s heat and warm up the planet.
Global warming has already caused a wide range of problems. 3 Countries around the world have faced extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, floods and heat waves.
Overflowing Landfills
Landfills are used for waste disposal (处理) in many countries around the world. However, these landfills are now nearing their limit. When this happens, the chances of dangerous chemicals in the waste entering our water supply increase.
The amount of waste in landfills in China has risen sharply over the last ten years. 4 Some cities, such as Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, among others, are leading the way and have promised to send “zero waste to landfill!”.
5 They believe that, although recycling waste is effective, the most effective way of solving the problem of overflowing landfills is to encourage people to take responsibility for reducing the waste they produce themselves.
A.If it isn’t, try using public transport instead.
B.Sea levels are rising due to the melting of polar ice sheets.
C.However, this has come at a huge cost to the environment.
D.This resulted in the flooding of the River Po near Turin in Italy.
E.For instance, that in Hong Kong is likely to reduce within a few years.
F.Thus, the government is now trying to find alternative waste disposal methods.
G.Apart from the three Rs, some experts have called for the fourth R—Responsibility.
(23-24高一下·江苏泰州·期中)Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes. If you grow your own food, the last thing you want is to let your hard work go to waste. 1 It begins with the plants you choose, and goes right through to preservation (保存) of your harvests. Here are some tips for you.
When planning a food-producing garden, it’s very important to choose the right plants for the right places. Waste is far more likely to happen if you are growing plants that are not suited to the climate, soil, and growing conditions. 2 Make sure they do not just provide food today, but can also adapt to the changing climate. If you make the right plant choices, you are likely to get a good harvest.
Sometimes cooperation is key. People may often have more seeds (种子) than they really need, particularly in small gardens. However, seeds are usually only viable (能存活的) for a certain length of time. 3 And you can also share skills and knowledge with each other.
4 You might, for example, grow some strawberries inside a greenhouse, with others outdoors. Those grown under cover will typically be ready to harvest a little earlier. Or you can grow different varieties of plants.
Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved. This can happen in a range of different ways. You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce. 5
A.Communities can come together to harvest crops.
B.Many common weeds or flowers can be sources of food.
C.Preventing food waste in the garden is a long term process.
D.So think about how you can create good systems in your garden.
E.Sharing them between households can avoid wasting their potential.
F.Make sure you know how to do so properly when harvest time comes.
G.Scheduling different harvest periods for certain crops can help avoid waste.
(23-24高一下·江苏南京·期中)On an Arctic island, an enormous vault(保险库)has been built deep underground. Like any bank vault, it holds treasures. 1 This vault holds seeds from food crops around the world.
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is in Norway. It is a seed bank, a place to store and protect seeds. More than 800 thousand different seed samples rest here. All are dried and kept in temperature- and moisture-controlled conditions. 2
Many nations have their own seed banks, too. One main purpose is to make sure that even if crops fail, there will still be seeds for farmers to plant.
3 Loss of diversity can cause problems. That was made clear in Ireland in the 1840s. People grew and ate just one kind of potato, which had no defense when a disease struck. The potato crops failed, and one million people died as a result.
Seeds hold information for scientists. 4 They might grow into plants that can resist pests and disease. They might grow where other plants can't. Even the seeds of an invasive plant like kudzu are saved in seed banks. Perhaps scientists will find out their use someday.
A nation commonly has more than one seed bank. Still, a backup plan is a good idea. Floods, fires, war, and other disasters can destroy storehouses of precious seeds. 5 The seeds come from all over the world, and they belong to everyone, not just one nation.
A.But you won't find precious jewels or metals here.
B.That's why the Svalbard Global Seed Vault was created.
C.Another main purpose of seed banks is to protect diversity.
D.The seeds of plants that are no longer farmed may be useful.
E.They will still have seeds to plant, crops to grow, and food to eat.
F.The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is nicknamed the Doomsday Vault.
G.This means the air in the vault stays dry and the temperature is always the same.
(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)How to Be a Successful Team Leader
Every well-organized team needs to have an outstanding leader with specific skills. Sometimes the leader’s abilities can come to affect the whole team. Although you students are still young, it’s never too early to cultivate leadership skills.
A team consists of both leaders and followers. 1 What is essential to the role of leader is the ability to unite the whole team. A great leader enables their team to achieve a common goal through the giving of clear directions and support. Meanwhile, everyone on a team also desires personal success, so a balance can be hard to strike. A leader should have fierce determination. 2
What’s more, a successful and charming leader ought to be able to handle interpersonal relationships well. They should be honest, fair, objective and impartial(公正的)when it comes to both rewards and punishments. 3 And in so being, the working atmosphere will only come to be improved.
4 Good communication skills allow people to build good relationships, which is an essential part of being a good leader. If you find it hard to express your ideas clearly to those who you cooperate with, it may be rather difficult for you to be a good leader. Positive thinking will make it easier for leaders to become effective speakers and communicators. Listening and observing carefully is also of great importance, and a good leader knows how to listen effectively when communicating with others.
It’s a well-known fact that, whatever field you wish to work in, leadership skills are necessary for anyone who desires to have a successful career. 5
A.These kinds of leaders are trustworthy.
B.Followers, are different from leaders, though
C.Leaders still-need someone to guide them along the way.
D.So it’s never too early to train yourselves as promising future leaders.
E.Neither side can exist and work effectively without the other.
F.Otherwise the followers will lose their confidence and things will not be done well.
G.To be a leader you should take the initiative in connecting with your followers.
(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)A lot of health care are connected with being around trees. 1 According to one 2015 study, a walk in the woods can make you feel seven years younger.
They also do a great deal of good for the environment by reducing air pollution and taking in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 2 A new study by researchers at University College London found that the trees in the London Borough (自治市) of Camden store as much carbon per hectare (公顷) as rainforests.
A tree’s ability to take in carbon dioxide is especially useful when the tree.is in cities or towns, where there are too many industrial activities. For the study, the researchers used laser scanning methods to take their own carbon readings of trees from the ground as well as the air. 3 They were able to know there are about 85,000 trees in Camden, where the university is based.
They determined that Camden had a median carton density (浓度) of around 55 tons of carbon per hectare (t/ha). Greener areas of the borough, like Highgate Cemetery, had a carbon density of 380 t/ha — levels that are typically seen in rainforests. 4
So what exactly does this mean Trees could help cool the atmosphere by removing carbon dioxide from the air. However, some climate scientists argue that it’s more complicated (复杂的) than that. 5 Still, with all of the other benefits trees offer, planting a seed or two couldn’t hurt.
A.We need to protect the ones we already have.
B.Global warming is happening at a faster rate than ever.
C.These benefits aren’t just felt in the countryside, either.
D.For comparison, major cities in the US have a carbon density of 7.7.
E.They have been known to reduce people’s stress and improve overall mental health.
F.Then they compared their findings with the data from the UK Environment Agency.
G.They think the impact of tree-planting activities today may not be seen for many years.
(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)As humans, we’re meant to be social creatures. Being socially connected is key to our mental and emotional health. 1 When it comes to shyness and social awkwardness, the things we tell ourselves make a huge difference.
People aren’t thinking about you — at least not to the degree that you think. 2 Just like you’re spending their time judging you, so stop wasting time worrying about what others think of you.
3 When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is outgoing and confident. 4 Some people are better at hiding it than others, but there are many people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are. The next person you speak to is just as likely to be worried about what you think of him or her!
People are much more tolerant than you think. In your mind, the very idea of doing or saying something embarrassing in public is frightening. You’re sure that everyone will judge you. But in reality, it’s very unlikely that people are going to make a big deal over a social faux pas (失礼). 5
A.But that’s not the case.
B.We should learn to self-evaluate (自我评估) our social awkwardness.
C.Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human.
D.Yet many of us are shy and socially introverted (内向的).
E.Most people are caught up in their own lives and concerns.
F.Many other people feel just as awkward and nervous as you do.
G.Everyone has done it at some point so most will just ignore it and move on.
(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)It’s normal to wake briefly during the night. 1 But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.
Stay out of your head. The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake, because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake. 2
3 If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization (想象), or deep breathing, which can be done without even getting out of bed. Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body.
Do a quiet, non-stimulating activity. If you’ve been awake for more than 15minutes, try getting out of bed and doing a quiet, non-stimulating activity, such as reading a book. Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up. 4 What’s more, a light snack might relax you, but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day.
5 If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something, make a brief note of it on paper and delay worrying about it until the next day when you are fresh and it will be easier to resolve.
A.Put off worries and troubles.
B.Make relaxation your goal, not sleep.
C.In fact, a good sleeper won’t even remember it.
D.Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night.
E.You should also be much more productive and creative after a good night’s rest.
F.Also avoid screens of any kind-computers, TVs, cell phones, iPads.
G.A good way to stay out of your head is to focus on the feeling in your body.
(22-23高一下·江苏·期末)Whether you’re trying to lose weight or simply feel better,a good fitness routine is key. 1 How many times have you committed to a program only to find yourself drifting back into your old habits Fortunately, there are some easy methods for keeping yourself on track toward your health and fitness goals.
Clear Your Head
The first step is to fine-tune your mindset. It’s not enough to simply want something. 2 Some people mistakenly believe that this type of mental toughness can only be achieved by people with natural self-control and willpower. Luckily, you can train yourself to be mentally strong by practicing some key behaviors daily.
Write It Down
Another effective tool is to put them in writing. Set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound targets for yourself. For example, instead of saying, “I want to start running,” you might define your goal as, “Within six months, I will be able to run a 5K.” 3
Phone a Friend
4 Tell this person what you’re aiming for. When you’re feeling unmotivated, give them a call and ask them to remind you why you started down this path. If the person you share your home with can work toward similar health goals, all the better.
Make It Fun
Getting fit and healthy shouldn’t feel like punishment. Find activities and foods that you actually enjoy. If you hate carrot, don’t force yourself to eat it. Find an alternative like potato, let go of the guilt, and enjoy. 5 If you hate running, step off it and into something more enjoyable like dancing or cycling.
Taking responsibility for your own physical fitness is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. Set goals that are right for you, hold yourself responsible for achieving them, and celebrate each small victory along the way to success.
A.The same goes for exercise.
B.Record your daily progress you make.
C.But sticking to one can be a challenge.
D.If you miss a workout, it doesn’t mean all is lost.
E.You have to focus your mental energies on success.
F.To keep yourself responsible for the goals you set, have a partner.
G.Note down the milestones you’ll meet on the road to achieving your goal.

(22-23高一下·江苏宿迁·期中)Taking an online course for the first time Based on research and best practices from our community, here are some tips for learning online.
Set daily goals for studying
Ask yourself what you hope to accomplish in your course each day. Setting a clear goal can help you stay focused. 1 And don’t forget to praise yourself when you make progress towards your goal!
Have your learning space
It’s easier to recall information if you’ re in the same place where you first learned it, so having your learning space at home to take online courses can make your learning more effective. 2 If possible, make it separate from your bed or sofa. A clear distinction between where you study and where you take breaks can help you focus.
Join the discussion
Course discussion forums are a great place to ask questions about tasks, discuss topics, share resources, and make friends. Our research shows that learners who take part in the discussion forums are 37% more likely to complete a course. 3
Do one thing at a time
Doing several things at the same time is less efficient than focusing on a single task at a time. Researchers found that people who multitask all the time cannot pay attention, recall information, or switch from one job to another as well as those who complete one task at a time. 4 You’ll absorb more information and complete tasks with greater ease than if you were trying to do many things at once.
Take breaks
5 If you find yourself working on a challenging problem without much progress for an hour, take a break. Walking outside, taking a shower, or talking with a friend can lift your spirits and even give you new ideas on how to deal with that problem.
A.So make a post today!
B.Stay focused on one thing at a time.
C.So take action to prepare for the course.
D.It should be specific and easy to measure.
E.Resting your brain is key to good performance.
F.It is necessary to keep your brain active all the way.
G.Remove anything that takes your attention away from the space.
(22-23高一下·江苏扬州·期中)Food waste contributes to ever-growing landfills (垃圾堆). 1 If you want to help the environment in your own way, you can start by reducing, or better yet, completely erasing food waste in your home. To give you an idea of where to start, here are some tips:
Don’t buy too much food whenever you go grocery shopping. 2 However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste. Taking several short grocery shopping trips every week instead of one long trip may help keep you from buying too much food, thereby cutting back on food waste.
Always make a shopping list. 3 That’s because you already know what things you need. Moreover, a list will prevent you from buying food items that you already have at home, which can help reduce the amount of potential food waste.
4 For meats, you have to keep them in the freezer while fruits and vegetables should be stored in the crisper compartment (保鲜室). Although these tips may seem simple, they can help greatly reduce the amount of food waste that your family produces.
Use the “First-In-First-Out” method. For example, placing the newly bought foods at the back of the fridge or cupboard will encourage people to use the ones that are in the front row. This will ensure that you know what you have and reduce food waste. 5
A.It can help keep your grocery trips short.
B.Having a fully filled fridge may look nice.
C.Your fridge may be too crowded to function well.
D.It is a waste of your money, as well as your effort.
E.Some people like to store up food for emergencies.
F.Foods need proper storage to prevent them going bad.
G.If you can’t see what foods you have, you’ll forget them.
(22-23高一下·江苏泰州·期中)Flash fiction is a fictional short story. If you are willing to write flash fiction on your own, here are some tips.
Select a genre(体裁)for your writing.
To begin with, decide your genre first. 1 Your genre can be science fiction, horror,thriller(惊险小说), or romance, depending on what you like and on readers’demand.
Choose an interesting name for your title.
A title is something that attracts readers. 2 Therefore, as a writer, you should know how to play with words and create unique titles. The title should hold the attention of a more significant number of people.
3
With flash fiction, you don’t have time for lengthy explanations, character introductions, and setting descriptions. You need to go straight into what is happening in order to get everything you want in the story.
Be closely related.
When writing flash fiction, you should know what you’re writing about. Understand what your characters are feeling and experiencing. Pretend you’re a director and see each of your scenes slowly.
Focus on one moment at a time.
Describing one moment at a time. Don’t rush into a new character or scene. 4 This way, with the limited word count, you get to bring light to every aspect of flash fiction.
Use strong imagery.
Using strong imagery can help readers better form a picture in their minds. It’ll bring alive the scenes and the characters. 5 Good flash fiction has vivid(逼真的)imagery described in every part of the story
Create a surprise.

(22-23高一下·江苏扬州·期中)Humans like exploring the world. Throughout history, we have gone to afar- off places to see how people in other areas leave. That urge (欲望) hasn’t disappeared, despite increasing awareness of the carbon footprint associated with travel. Nor should it—there’re great benefits from seeing the broader world. 1 Consider the following tips to reduce your influence when traveling.
● 2
Not only does it save money, but travelers will avoid lines and crowds. And the damage to the sites is less. The climate benefit is real, too. Traveling during this time means better options for direct flights, which are more fuel-efficient. Planes burn up to 25% of their fuel supply when taking off and climbing, so fewer stopovers (中途停留) mean less fuel used.
● Use public transport
Instead of hiring a private vehicle, you can consider using public means of transport. Carrying lots of people, they cut down the carbon emissions (排放) that would otherwise be given out by many private vehicles. 3
● Pack a “Capsule Travel Bag”
The heavier a plane is, the more fuel it requires to fly. Therefore, packing little is one simple way to reduce your impact. 4 Finnair, Finland’s biggest airline, has calculated that if each passenger were to cut down the weight of their luggage by 5 kilograms, the total reduction could save almost 17,000 toms of CO2 emissions.
● Bring your waste-free tools
A zero-waste routine or creating as little waste as possible is also important when you’re away. To often, though, people use as an excuse to let their waste-reduction efforts fail. 5 In order to reduce your impact on the environment, you need to carry reusable items. For instance, carry reusable shopping bags or reusable water bottles.
A.Travel during the off-season.
B.Explore the less well-known destinations.
C.In case you’re doubtful, there’re related statistics to prove it.
D.That is unfair to the locals of whatever place you are visiting.
E.The pressure on the environment could then be reduced greatly.
F.The popularity of traveling by air makes it hard to cut down the carbon footprint.
G.Fortunately, some aspects of travel can be done in ways gentler to the planet.
(22-23高一下·江苏盐城·期中)Chou doufu is a fermented (发酵的) tofu with a strong smell but good flavour. The street snack is usually sold at night, served out of a small bowl and toothpicks (牙签) to pick it up. 1 .
Chou dou fu was invented by a man named Wang Zhihe during the Qing Dynasty. He studied to become a local officer, but tried and failed many times. Every time he left his hometown to take the exam in the capital city, he would end up using all of his money for travelling and be left with nothing to buy food. 2 , Wang Zhihe decided to make a living in the capital city while preparing for the next year’s exam.
His family back home was wealthy from their tofu factory business. 3 . He bought some simple tools to make it in order to sell it on the street. During that time, the summer heat was causing the fresh tofu that he didn’t sell to become moldy (发霉). 4 . He decided to cut the tofu into smaller pieces, dry them in the sun and then pickle (腌渍) them with salt. They were stored in a jar until autumn came. The moment he opened the jar, he was hit with the special smell of fermented tofu that had become grey. 5 , so he sent them to the neighbors who found that they enjoyed the dish, too.

(22-23高一下·江苏泰州·期中)When my children haven’t played outside enough, I can tell their energy levels will go up and the noise will increase in the house. I feel upset, so I tell them it’s time to go outside. Usually, they complain and come up with reasons why staying in is better, but I insist. Within minutes, they’re out and running around. Sometimes I give them a minimum time limit, say 20 minutes, before they could come back inside. 1
Kids need consistent outdoor play. There are many benefits, and I’d like to share some of them.
Outdoor play is good for kids’ physical health. 2 Movements like rolling and jumping also stimulate a child’s vestibular system. It’s the organizer for other senses and affects things like balance and space awareness. Children need to stimulate it regularly, and outdoor play allows this to happen naturally.
Outdoor play is beneficial mentally. It makes kids happy. You will see it when they come inside, tired but satisfied. It also gives children a chance to be in a space without fixed rules. There are no requirements to be quiet or stay clean. 3 It helps result in imaginative play and a creative flow state.
4 There’s so much active learning that goes on outdoors. When kids get outdoors, they take the information they’ve heard in the classroom and apply it to real life. For example, building a bridge across a hole that will support the weight or getting the right consistency of mud by mixing dirt and water. They’ll also do better in school after spending more time outside.
Outdoor play is of great importance, so encourage your kids to take part in it. 5 You can also take them to beautiful parks and forests on weekends. Your kids will get hours of enjoyment, and the benefits are far-reaching.
A.It also has educational value.
B.Make your yard more interesting for them.
C.Don’t ask them to follow too many restrictions.
D.It connects physical exercise with better education, too.
E.So kids are free to do almost anything that entertains them.
F.But often they forget about it once they’re wrapped up in a game.
G.It helps build up strength and reduces the likelihood of overweight.期中复习之七选五15篇

(23-24高一下·江苏镇江·期中)In many ways, life has become far more comfortable and convenient in the past few decades. 1 Here, we look at three of the most serious environmental problems we are currently facing.
Air Pollution
The main cause of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels by vehicles and power plants. Other human activities, such as construction and the burning of waste, also contribute to air pollution. The effects on our health can be very serious.
You can easily contribute to reducing air pollution by only using a car to make journeys when it’s absolutely necessary. 2
Global Warming
Global warming is the increase in the temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air and oceans. It’s caused by the build-up of carbon dioxide and other pollutants in the atmosphere. These trap the Sun’s heat and warm up the planet.
Global warming has already caused a wide range of problems. 3 Countries around the world have faced extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, floods and heat waves.
Overflowing Landfills
Landfills are used for waste disposal (处理) in many countries around the world. However, these landfills are now nearing their limit. When this happens, the chances of dangerous chemicals in the waste entering our water supply increase.
The amount of waste in landfills in China has risen sharply over the last ten years. 4 Some cities, such as Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, among others, are leading the way and have promised to send “zero waste to landfill!”.
5 They believe that, although recycling waste is effective, the most effective way of solving the problem of overflowing landfills is to encourage people to take responsibility for reducing the waste they produce themselves.
A.If it isn’t, try using public transport instead.
B.Sea levels are rising due to the melting of polar ice sheets.
C.However, this has come at a huge cost to the environment.
D.This resulted in the flooding of the River Po near Turin in Italy.
E.For instance, that in Hong Kong is likely to reduce within a few years.
F.Thus, the government is now trying to find alternative waste disposal methods.
G.Apart from the three Rs, some experts have called for the fourth R—Responsibility.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.F 5.G

1.上文“In many ways, life has become far more comfortable and convenient in the past few decades. (在过去的几十年里,生活在许多方面变得更加舒适和方便)”讲随着世界的发展人们的生活在许多方面变得更加舒适和方便,下文“Here, we look at three of the most serious environmental problems we are currently facing. (在这里,我们来看一下我们目前面临的三个最严重的环境问题)”讲人类面临着三个最严重的环境问题,该空必须与上文形成转折关系,讲明生活的舒适和方便是以牺牲环境为代价实现的,才能顺理成章引出下文讲三个最严重的环境问题,C选项“然而,这对环境造成了巨大的损失。”切合语境。故选C项。
2.上文“You can easily contribute to reducing air pollution by only using a car to make journeys when it’s absolutely necessary. (只要在绝对必要的时候开车出行,你就可以很容易地为减少空气污染做出贡献)”讲为减少空气污染做出贡献的一种策略,本段就两句话,所表达内涵要一致,该空也应讲为减少空气污染做出贡献的另一种策略,A选项“如果没有,试着使用公共交通工具。”切合语境。故选A项。
3.该空应承接上文“Global warming has already caused a wide range of problems. (全球变暖已经造成了一系列问题)”讲全球变暖造成的问题,再结合下文“Countries around the world have faced extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, floods and heat waves. (世界各国都面临着飓风、洪水和热浪等极端天气条件)”和常识可知,海平面上升是全球变暖造成的问题之一,B选项“由于极地冰盖的融化,海平面正在上升。”切合语境。故选B项。
4.上文“The amount of waste in landfills in China has risen sharply over the last ten years. (在过去的十年里,中国垃圾填埋场的垃圾量急剧上升)”讲中国垃圾填埋场垃圾越来越多,下文“Some cities, such as Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, among others, are leading the way and have promised to send “zero waste to landfill!”. (北京、深圳和上海等一些城市正在引领潮流,并承诺“零垃圾填埋”)”讲中国一些一线城市正在采取措施应对垃圾过多的问题,F选项“因此,政府现正设法寻找其他废物处理方法。”正好与上文形成因果关系,上文现象的出现导致相关应对策略的产生,才能引出下文用具体实例讲垃圾应对策略——零垃圾填埋。故选F项。
5.由下文“They believe that, although recycling waste is effective, the most effective way of solving the problem of overflowing landfills is to encourage people to take responsibility for reducing the waste they produce themselves. (他们认为,尽管回收废物是有效的,但解决垃圾填埋场满溢问题的最有效方法是鼓励人们承担起减少自己产生的废物的责任)”可知,下文讲应对垃圾满溢的最有效方法是人们要承担减少自己产生垃圾的责任,G选项“除了三个R之外,一些专家还呼吁第四个R——责任。”中“Responsibility”与下文相呼应。故选G项。
(23-24高一下·江苏泰州·期中)Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes. If you grow your own food, the last thing you want is to let your hard work go to waste. 1 It begins with the plants you choose, and goes right through to preservation (保存) of your harvests. Here are some tips for you.
When planning a food-producing garden, it’s very important to choose the right plants for the right places. Waste is far more likely to happen if you are growing plants that are not suited to the climate, soil, and growing conditions. 2 Make sure they do not just provide food today, but can also adapt to the changing climate. If you make the right plant choices, you are likely to get a good harvest.
Sometimes cooperation is key. People may often have more seeds (种子) than they really need, particularly in small gardens. However, seeds are usually only viable (能存活的) for a certain length of time. 3 And you can also share skills and knowledge with each other.
4 You might, for example, grow some strawberries inside a greenhouse, with others outdoors. Those grown under cover will typically be ready to harvest a little earlier. Or you can grow different varieties of plants.
Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved. This can happen in a range of different ways. You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce. 5
A.Communities can come together to harvest crops.
B.Many common weeds or flowers can be sources of food.
C.Preventing food waste in the garden is a long term process.
D.So think about how you can create good systems in your garden.
E.Sharing them between households can avoid wasting their potential.
F.Make sure you know how to do so properly when harvest time comes.
G.Scheduling different harvest periods for certain crops can help avoid waste.

Or you can grow different varieties of plants.(例如,你可以在温室里种一些草莓,在室外种一些。那些在掩蔽下生长的植物通常会提前一点准备好收获。或者你可以种植不同种类的植物)”可知,本段主要讲想办法让植物的收获时间不一样,通过这样的方式来避免浪费,G项“为某些作物安排不同的收获期可以帮助避免浪费”符合语境,故选G。
5.根据本段首句“Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved.(一旦你种植了作物,重要的是要准备好保存需要保存的东西)”以及空前“You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce.(你可以冷冻,腌制,或者可以制作各种各样的菜园产品)”可知,本段是说收获后要好好保存,空前提到了一些保存的方法,F项“当收获季节到来的时候,确保你知道如何正确地这样做”符合语境,故选F。
(23-24高一下·江苏南京·期中)On an Arctic island, an enormous vault(保险库)has been built deep underground. Like any bank vault, it holds treasures. 1 This vault holds seeds from food crops around the world.
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is in Norway. It is a seed bank, a place to store and protect seeds. More than 800 thousand different seed samples rest here. All are dried and kept in temperature- and moisture-controlled conditions. 2
Many nations have their own seed banks, too. One main purpose is to make sure that even if crops fail, there will still be seeds for farmers to plant.
3 Loss of diversity can cause problems. That was made clear in Ireland in the 1840s. People grew and ate just one kind of potato, which had no defense when a disease struck. The potato crops failed, and one million people died as a result.
Seeds hold information for scientists. 4 They might grow into plants that can resist pests and disease. They might grow where other plants can't. Even the seeds of an invasive plant like kudzu are saved in seed banks. Perhaps scientists will find out their use someday.
A nation commonly has more than one seed bank. Still, a backup plan is a good idea. Floods, fires, war, and other disasters can destroy storehouses of precious seeds. 5 The seeds come from all over the world, and they belong to everyone, not just one nation.
A.But you won't find precious jewels or metals here.
B.That's why the Svalbard Global Seed Vault was created.
C.Another main purpose of seed banks is to protect diversity.
D.The seeds of plants that are no longer farmed may be useful.
E.They will still have seeds to plant, crops to grow, and food to eat.
F.The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is nicknamed the Doomsday Vault.
G.This means the air in the vault stays dry and the temperature is always the same.
【答案】1.A 2.G 3.C 4.D 5.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了在北极的一个岛屿上的保险库中存放着世界各地粮食作物的种子。
1.根据上文“Like any bank vault, it holds treasures”( 就像任何银行保险库一样,这里存放着宝藏)根据下文“This vault holds seeds from food crops around the world. ”(这个地窖存放着世界各地粮食作物的种子)可知,保险库里没有珍贵的珠宝或金属,而是种子。故A选项“但你不会在这里找到珍贵的珠宝或金属”切题。故选A项。
2.根据上文“All are dried and kept in temperature- and moisture-controlled conditions.”( 所有的都被干燥并保存在温度和湿度控制的条件下)可知,选项承接上文说明温度和湿度的问题,进一步解释上文。故G选项“这意味着地窖里的空气保持干燥,温度始终保持不变”切题。故选G项。
3.根据下文“Loss of diversity can cause problems.”(多样性的丧失会带来问题)可知,保险库的目的之一就是保护种子的多样性。故C选项“种子库的另一个主要目的是保护多样性”切题。故选C项。
4.根据下文“They might grow into plants that can resist pests and disease. They might grow where other plants can't.”( 它们可能会长成能够抵抗病虫害的植物。它们可以生长在其他植物不能生长的地方。)可知,选项承接下文说明不再耕种的种子的作用。故D选项“不再耕种的植物的种子可能有用”切题。故选D项。
5.根据上文“Floods, fires, war, and other disasters can destroy storehouses of precious seeds.”( 洪水、火灾、战争和其他灾难会摧毁储存珍贵种子的仓库)可知,这就是斯瓦尔巴群岛全球种子库建立的原因。故B选项“这就是斯瓦尔巴群岛全球种子库建立的原因”切题。故选B项。

(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)A lot of health care are connected with being around trees. 1 According to one 2015 study, a walk in the woods can make you feel seven years younger.
They also do a great deal of good for the environment by reducing air pollution and taking in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 2 A new study by researchers at University College London found that the trees in the London Borough (自治市) of Camden store as much carbon per hectare (公顷) as rainforests.
A tree’s ability to take in carbon dioxide is especially useful when the tree.is in cities or towns, where there are too many industrial activities. For the study, the researchers used laser scanning methods to take their own carbon readings of trees from the ground as well as the air. 3 They were able to know there are about 85,000 trees in Camden, where the university is based.
They determined that Camden had a median carton density (浓度) of around 55 tons of carbon per hectare (t/ha). Greener areas of the borough, like Highgate Cemetery, had a carbon density of 380 t/ha — levels that are typically seen in rainforests. 4
So what exactly does this mean Trees could help cool the atmosphere by removing carbon dioxide from the air. However, some climate scientists argue that it’s more complicated (复杂的) than that. 5 Still, with all of the other benefits trees offer, planting a seed or two couldn’t hurt.
A.We need to protect the ones we already have.
B.Global warming is happening at a faster rate than ever.

People aren’t thinking about you — at least not to the degree that you think. 2 Just like you’re spending their time judging you, so stop wasting time worrying about what others think of you.
3 When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is outgoing and confident. 4 Some people are better at hiding it than others, but there are many people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are. The next person you speak to is just as likely to be worried about what you think of him or her!
People are much more tolerant than you think. In your mind, the very idea of doing or saying something embarrassing in public is frightening. You’re sure that everyone will judge you. But in reality, it’s very unlikely that people are going to make a big deal over a social faux pas (失礼). 5

(21-22高一下·江苏南京·期中)It’s normal to wake briefly during the night. 1 But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.
Stay out of your head. The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake, because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake. 2
3 If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization (想象), or deep breathing, which can be done without even getting out of bed. Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body.
Do a quiet, non-stimulating activity. If you’ve been awake for more than 15minutes, try getting out of bed and doing a quiet, non-stimulating activity, such as reading a book. Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up. 4 What’s more, a light snack might relax you, but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day.
5 If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something, make a brief note of it on paper and delay worrying about it until the next day when you are fresh and it will be easier to resolve.
A.Put off worries and troubles.
B.Make relaxation your goal, not sleep.
C.In fact, a good sleeper won’t even remember it.
D.Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night.
E.You should also be much more productive and creative after a good night’s rest.

【答案】1.C 2.G 3.B 4.F 5.A
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,介绍了几个解决夜里醒来后难以再入睡的小窍门。
1.由下文“But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.(但是,如果你在晚上醒来时难以入睡,以下提示可能会有所帮助。)”可知,这里主要介绍几个解决夜里醒来后难以再入睡的小窍门,而C项In fact, a good sleeper won’t even remember it.(事实上,一个好的睡眠者甚至不会记得它。)符合句意,其中it代指上文wake briefly during the night,而a good sleeper 与下文having trouble falling back asleep形成对比,所以C项有承上启下作用。故选C项。
2.由上文“Stay out of your head. The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake, because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake.(别胡思乱想。恢复睡眠的关键是继续为睡眠做好准备,所以要以放松的姿势躺在床上。尽管这可能很难,但尽量不要因为你醒着而感到压力,因为这种压力和焦虑会促使你的身体保持清醒。)”可知,这里主要讲睡觉时别胡思乱想,而G项A good way to stay out of your head is to focus on the feeling in your body.(一个别胡思乱想的好方法是专注于你身体的感觉。)符合语境,其中stay out of your head与段首呼应。故选G项。
3.由下文“If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization (想象), or deep breathing, which can be done without even getting out of bed. Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body.(如果你发现很难入睡,可以尝试一种放松技巧,如可视化或深呼吸,这甚至可以在不起床的情况下完成。提醒自己,尽管它们不能代替睡眠,但休息和放松仍然有助于提神醒脑。)”可知,这里主要讲通过放松的方式而不是睡眠的方式来提神醒脑,所以B项Make relaxation your goal, not sleep.(把放松作为你的目标,而不是睡觉。)符合语境,对下文有总括作用。故选B项。

(22-23高一下·江苏·期末)Whether you’re trying to lose weight or simply feel better,a good fitness routine is key. 1 How many times have you committed to a program only to find yourself drifting back into your old habits Fortunately, there are some easy methods for keeping yourself on track toward your health and fitness goals.
Clear Your Head
The first step is to fine-tune your mindset. It’s not enough to simply want something. 2 Some people mistakenly believe that this type of mental toughness can only be achieved by people with natural self-control and willpower. Luckily, you can train yourself to be mentally strong by practicing some key behaviors daily.
Write It Down
Another effective tool is to put them in writing. Set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound targets for yourself. For example, instead of saying, “I want to start running,” you might define your goal as, “Within six months, I will be able to run a 5K.” 3
Phone a Friend
4 Tell this person what you’re aiming for. When you’re feeling unmotivated, give them a call and ask them to remind you why you started down this path. If the person you share your home with can work toward similar health goals, all the better.
Make It Fun
Getting fit and healthy shouldn’t feel like punishment. Find activities and foods that you actually enjoy. If you hate carrot, don’t force yourself to eat it. Find an alternative like potato, let go of the guilt, and enjoy. 5 If you hate running, step off it and into something more enjoyable like dancing or cycling.
Taking responsibility for your own physical fitness is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. Set goals that are right for you, hold yourself responsible for achieving them, and celebrate each small victory along the way to success.
A.The same goes for exercise.
B.Record your daily progress you make.
C.But sticking to one can be a challenge.
D.If you miss a workout, it doesn’t mean all is lost.

(22-23高一下·江苏宿迁·期中)Taking an online course for the first time Based on research and best practices from our community, here are some tips for learning online.
Set daily goals for studying
Ask yourself what you hope to accomplish in your course each day. Setting a clear goal can help you stay focused. 1 And don’t forget to praise yourself when you make progress towards your goal!
Have your learning space
It’s easier to recall information if you’ re in the same place where you first learned it, so having your learning space at home to take online courses can make your learning more effective. 2 If possible, make it separate from your bed or sofa. A clear distinction between where you study and where you take breaks can help you focus.
Join the discussion
Course discussion forums are a great place to ask questions about tasks, discuss topics, share resources, and make friends. Our research shows that learners who take part in the discussion forums are 37% more likely to complete a course. 3
Do one thing at a time
Doing several things at the same time is less efficient than focusing on a single task at a time. Researchers found that people who multitask all the time cannot pay attention, recall information, or switch from one job to another as well as those who complete one task at a time. 4 You’ll absorb more information and complete tasks with greater ease than if you were trying to do many things at once.
Take breaks
5 If you find yourself working on a challenging problem without much progress for an hour, take a break. Walking outside, taking a shower, or talking with a friend can lift your spirits and even give you new ideas on how to deal with that problem.
A.So make a post today!
B.Stay focused on one thing at a time.
C.So take action to prepare for the course.
D.It should be specific and easy to measure.
E.Resting your brain is key to good performance.

(22-23高一下·江苏扬州·期中)Food waste contributes to ever-growing landfills (垃圾堆). 1 If you want to help the environment in your own way, you can start by reducing, or better yet, completely erasing food waste in your home. To give you an idea of where to start, here are some tips:
Don’t buy too much food whenever you go grocery shopping. 2 However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste. Taking several short grocery shopping trips every week instead of one long trip may help keep you from buying too much food, thereby cutting back on food waste.
Always make a shopping list. 3 That’s because you already know what things you need. Moreover, a list will prevent you from buying food items that you already have at home, which can help reduce the amount of potential food waste.
4 For meats, you have to keep them in the freezer while fruits and vegetables should be stored in the crisper compartment (保鲜室). Although these tips may seem simple, they can help greatly reduce the amount of food waste that your family produces.
Use the “First-In-First-Out” method. For example, placing the newly bought foods at the back of the fridge or cupboard will encourage people to use the ones that are in the front row. This will ensure that you know what you have and reduce food waste. 5
A.It can help keep your grocery trips short.
B.Having a fully filled fridge may look nice.
C.Your fridge may be too crowded to function well.
D.It is a waste of your money, as well as your effort.
E.Some people like to store up food for emergencies.
F.Foods need proper storage to prevent them going bad.
G.If you can’t see what foods you have, you’ll forget them.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.A 4.F 5.G
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何减少或者完全消除家里的食物浪费提了几条建议。
1.根据空格前的句子“Food waste contributes to ever-growing landfills(食物浪费导致垃圾填埋场不断增加)”可知,浪费掉的食物都被扔进了垃圾场,购买这些食物同样需要花费金钱和精力,所以,这是金钱和精力的浪费。所以D项“It is a waste of your money, as well as your effort.(这是在浪费你的钱,也是在浪费你的精力)”符合题意,和上一句是顺接关系。故选D项。
2.根据空格后的句子“However, if your family cannot eat all the food before it goes bad, then it just adds to food waste.(然而,如果你的家人不能在食物变质之前吃完所有的食物,那么这只会增加食物浪费)”可知,空格处的句子一定提到家里储存大量的食物。所以B项“Having a fully filled fridge may look nice.(一个装满食物的冰箱看起来不错)”符合题意,与上文形成明显的转折关系。故选B项。
3.空格前的句子“Always make a shopping list.(总是列一个购物清单)”建议列购物清单。空格处的句子应该提到这样做的好处。所以A项“It can help keep your grocery trips short.(它可以帮助你缩短购物之旅)”符合题意,A项中的it就是指上一句中的a shopping list。故选A项。
4.空格处的句子是该部分的主题句。空格后的句子“For meats, you have to keep them in the freezer while fruits and vegetables should be stored in the crisper compartment (保鲜室). Although these tips may seem simple, they can help greatly reduce the amount of food waste that your family produces.(对于肉类,你必须把它们放在冰箱里,而水果和蔬菜应该存放在保鲜盒里。虽然这些建议看起来很简单,但它们可以帮助你大大减少家庭产生的食物浪费)”指出不同的食物要用不同的储存方式,所以空格处的句子一定是建议“妥善储存食物”,所以F项“Foods need proper storage to prevent them going bad.(食物需要妥善储存以防止变质)”符合题意。故选F项。
5.空格前的句子“For example, placing the newly bought foods at the back of the fridge or cupboard will encourage people to use the ones that are in the front row. This will ensure that you know what you have and reduce food waste.(例如,把新买的食物放在冰箱或橱柜的后面会鼓励人们使用前排的食物。这将确保你知道你有什么,减少食物浪费)”解释为什么应该把新买的食物放在冰箱或橱柜的后面,空格处的句子应该接着说如果不这样做的弊端。所以G项“If you can’t see what foods you have, you’ll forget them.(如果你看不到你有什么食物,你就会忘记它们)”符合题意。故选G项。

● Use public transport
Instead of hiring a private vehicle, you can consider using public means of transport. Carrying lots of people, they cut down the carbon emissions (排放) that would otherwise be given out by many private vehicles. 3
● Pack a “Capsule Travel Bag”
The heavier a plane is, the more fuel it requires to fly. Therefore, packing little is one simple way to reduce your impact. 4 Finnair, Finland’s biggest airline, has calculated that if each passenger were to cut down the weight of their luggage by 5 kilograms, the total reduction could save almost 17,000 toms of CO2 emissions.
● Bring your waste-free tools
A zero-waste routine or creating as little waste as possible is also important when you’re away.

I feel upset, so I tell them it’s time to go outside. Usually, they complain and come up with reasons why staying in is better, but I insist. Within minutes, they’re out and running around. Sometimes I give them a minimum time limit, say 20 minutes, before they could come back inside. 1
Kids need consistent outdoor play. There are many benefits, and I’d like to share some of them.
Outdoor play is good for kids’ physical health. 2 Movements like rolling and jumping also stimulate a child’s vestibular system. It’s the organizer for other senses and affects things like balance and space awareness. Children need to stimulate it regularly, and outdoor play allows this to happen naturally.
Outdoor play is beneficial mentally. It makes kids happy. You will see it when they come inside, tired but satisfied. It also gives children a chance to be in a space without fixed rules. There are no requirements to be quiet or stay clean. 3 It helps result in imaginative play and a creative flow state.
4 There’s so much active learning that goes on outdoors. When kids get outdoors, they take the information they’ve heard in the classroom and apply it to real life. For example, building a bridge across a hole that will support the weight or getting the right consistency of mud by mixing dirt and water. They’ll also do better in school after spending more time outside.
Outdoor play is of great importance, so encourage your kids to take part in it. 5 You can also take them to beautiful parks and forests on weekends. Your kids will get hours of enjoyment, and the benefits are far-reaching.
A.It also has educational value.
B.Make your yard more interesting for them.
C.Don’t ask them to follow too many restrictions.
D.It connects physical exercise with better education, too.
E.So kids are free to do almost anything that entertains them.
F.But often they forget about it once they’re wrapped up in a game.
G.It helps build up strength and reduces the likelihood of overweight.

【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了户外玩耍对孩子的好处。
1.根据空前“Sometimes I give them a minimum time limit, say 20 minutes, before they could come back inside.(有时我会给他们最低时间限制,比如说,20分钟之后才能进家里面去)”可知,空前提到作者将孩子们叫去户外玩耍,并给他们最低时间限制,故F项“但他们总是会因为玩一个游戏而忘记了时间限制”符合题意,F项的it指代空前的20 minutes,故选F项。
2.根据主旨句“Outdoor play is good for kids’ physical health.(户外玩耍对孩子的身体健康有好处)”可知,空处陈述内容与户外运动对身体有好处有关。G项“它有助于增强体力,并减少超重的可能性。”符合题意,是空前的顺义承接。故选G项。
3.根据空前“There are no requirements to be quiet or stay clean.(他们不需要保持安静或者整洁)”可知,空前提到孩子在户外玩耍不用顾忌安静或者保持整洁,故E项“他们可以自由地做任何他们喜欢做的事情”是前文的结果,与前文构成因果关系,故选E项。
4.空处为本段主旨句。根据空后“There’s so much active learning that goes on outdoors. When kids get outdoors, they take the information they’ve heard in the classroom an
