Global warming is one of the most pressing environmental issues of our time. It refers to the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system, primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. As the climate warms, it leads to a variety of environmental impacts including the melting of ice caps, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events.
One significant consequence of global warming is the melting of glacier ice. This not only causes sea levels to rise but also threatens coastal communities with flooding and erosion. For instance, islands in the Pacific Ocean are already experiencing the effects as their land slowly disappears beneath the waves.
Moreover, global warming is responsible for more frequent and severe weather events. Increased temperatures can lead to more intense storms, floods, and droughts, disrupting ecosystems and human societies. In the United States, hurricanes have become more powerful with greater rainfall, leading to significant damage and loss of life.
Addressing global warming requires international cooperation and individual efforts. Countries worldwide need to work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and develop sustainable energy sources. Meanwhile, individuals can make a difference by reducing energy consumption, supporting green initiatives, and raising awareness about climate issues.
To combat global warming effectively, it’s essential for everyone to acknowledge the problem and take action before it’s too late.
12.Which causes the global warming in the article
A.Deforestation and burning fossil fuels.
B.Much use of chemicals in agriculture.
C.Nuclear energy production.
D.Overfishing in the oceans.
13.What is one effect of glacier melting mentioned in the passage
A.Rise-in agricultural productivity.
B.Creation of new land habitats.
C.Threats to coastal communities.
D.Decrease in desert areas.
14.How has global warming affected weather patterns
A.It has made winters milder.
B.It has made summers cooler.
C.Bad weather events happened more often.
D.It has decreased the number of sunny days.
15.What action is suggested in the article as part of addressing global warming
A.Relocating coastal residents. B.Constructing more sea barriers.
C.Increasing nuclear energy production. D.Developing sustainable energy sources.
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。
With each book you read, your mind expands, your vocabulary grows, and your imagination gets a good exercise. But many people find themselves reading fewer books than they want. 16
Keep a book on you.
One of the best ways to make sure you’re reading as much as possible is to have a book on you at most (or all!) times. 17 Maybe it’s while you wait in line to get a coffee. Or while you wait for your bus. Basically, any time you would pull your phone out and scroll, you can pull your book out and read it.
18
How much you should read a day is up to you, but giving yourself a small daily goal will help you keep your reading habit, especially during busier days. I suggest a sweet-spot of 20minutes per day. Sure, if you are able to read more during a day, just go for it.
Don’t be afraid to quit.
It happens to most of us. We pick up a book with the intention of finishing it in no time, but the story is just not for us. The main character may be unlikable. 19 Whatever the reason, we just don’t want to keep reading it. And that’s okay. When you just aren’t into a book, you should 100% quit reading it.
Find a reading community.
20 They allow you a space to dive deeper into what you’re reading about. Finding a reading community is easier than you think. Aside from the countless reading groups on the internet, many local bookstores and libraries host book clubs of their own. It’s really nice to meet people who enjoy the same hobbies as you.
A.Set a daily goal.
B.Read as much as possible.
C.It’s of great importance to choose a good book.
D.Here are a few tips to help you read more books.
E.Or the language may be too difficult to understand.
F.There are many occasions when you have the opportunity to read.
G.Things like book clubs are a great way to encourage you to keep reading.

My parents came to the US from India in the 1960s, along with other immigrants from India. Back then, there were few Indians anywhere around the US. My father came to Kansas,where he would get his Ph.D.Six months later, my mother came with the three of us kids — my sister, my brother, and me. We were just six,five and three years old then.
It was the very first winter when we were in Kansas. It was so cold,but we didn’t have heavy coats or warm clothes. We didn’t have a concept of how cold it really could be in the Midwest, and there was a new surprise every day. We didn’t have a car or anything like that, and my dad didn’t have a US driver’s license. But anyway, my father was studying for his Ph.D., and he would walk up and down a big hill to and from the campus on a regular basis.
Since I was three years old, I didn’t go to school, but my sister and brother were in school. My father had to walk down the big hill to take them to school every day and then walk back up the hill to go to university.After about three weeks of living like this, a woman called Valerie,whose son John was in the same class as my brother, started noticing them. On a very cold snowy morning,when they went to school as usual,Valerie passed by. She pulled up and said, “I see you on the way every day. Don’t you feel cold without coats ”My father responded,“We didn’t expect the weather would be so cold in Kansas.”Valerie said,“Maybe I can take your daughter and son to school. Would you like a ride ”
Paragraph 1:
Hearing that, my dad nodded with great joy.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Later, Valerie and her family became so dear to my family.

【知识点】电影与戏剧
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文主要介绍了中国文学中哪吒这一传奇人物,以《哪吒 2》为例,介绍了该电影的成功、故事内容、所探讨的主题,还提及了导演杨宇从医学背景转行做动画的经历以及他希望《哪吒 2》能带给人们的激励。
36.考查非谓语动词。句意:他们的故事,创作于明朝时期,展现了他们如何凭借自身魔力与不公的命运作斗争。“Their stories”是句子的主语,“show”是谓语动词。“written during the Ming Dynasty”是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰“stories”。因为 “stories”和“write”之间是被动关系,即故事是被创作的,所以用过去分词形式。故填 written。
37.考查非谓语动词。句意:《哪吒 2》是热门电影《哪吒之魔童降世》(2019 年)的续集。它取得了巨大成功,打破了中国票房纪录并且在全球获得了超过 13.7 亿美元的票房。“break” 和 “earn” 的逻辑主语都是“It(指代《哪吒 2》)”,且与主语之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式来表示电影成功所带来的结果。故填breaking。
38.考查副词。句意:与孙悟空不同,哪吒的故事更具悲剧色彩,但同样鼓舞人心。inspiring是形容词,需要用副词来修饰。“equally” 是副词,意为 “同样地;相等地”。故填equally。
39.考查名词。句意:在《哪吒 2》中,导演杨宇,也被称为饺子,探讨了个人成长以及与命运抗争的主题。of是介词,后面需要接名词。“grow” 是动词,其名词形式“growth”表示“成长;发展”。故填growth。
40.考查介词。句意:哪吒被描绘成一个打破刻板印象的男孩,而其他角色,比如龙王三太子敖丙和反派申公豹,也有着他们自己的挣扎。“the Dragon Prince Ao Bing and the villain Shen Gongbao”是对“other characters”的举例说明,“like”作为介词,有“像;例如” 的意思,用于引出例子。故填like。
41.考查形容词性物主代词。句意:哪吒被描绘成一个打破刻板印象的男孩,而其他角色,比如龙王三太子敖丙和反派申公豹,也有着他们自己的挣扎。struggles” 是名词,前面需要用形容词性物主代词来修饰。“they” 是主格形式,其形容词性物主代词“their”表示 “他们的”。故填their。
42.考查连词。句意;这部电影表明善与恶并非总是界限分明的。“good”和 “evil”是两个并列的名词,需要用连词and来连接。故填and。
43.考查定语从句。句意:与此同时,它强调了家庭支持和爱的重要性,这帮助哪吒改变了他的命运。“it focuses on the importance of family support and love” 是句子的主干部分。“which helps Nezha change his fate” 是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是 “the importance of family support and love”,关系代词“which”在从句中作主语,指代先行词。故填 which。
44.考查介词。句意:有医学背景的杨宇,尽管面临着来自他人的质疑,还是转行进入了动画行业。“doubts from others”是名词短语,“Yang Yu, who has a medical background, switched to animation”是句子的主干部分。设空处需要一个介词来表示让步关系,“despite”是介词,意为“尽管;不管”,后面接名词或名词短语。故填 despite。
45.考查非谓语动词。句意:他希望《哪吒 2》能激励人们像哪吒那样为他们的梦想继续奋斗。“inspire sb. to do sth.”是固定搭配,意为“激励某人做某事”,所以这里用动词不定式 “to keep”作宾语补足语。故填to keep。

Paragraph 1:
Hearing that, my dad nodded with great joy. He said, “That would be great. That’s very kind of you.” Then my sister and brother got into Valerie’s car on the freezing cold day. After expressing their thanks to Valerie, they greeted John with a smile. After a while, a faint flush rose to my brother’s cheeks because of the warm wind in the car, and my sister had a broad smile on her face. Seeing that, Valerie decided to continue the act from then on.
Paragraph 2:
Later, Valerie and her family became so dear to my family. It just started with this small act of offering a ride, and afterwards the relationship between the two families gradually deepened. We kids have been close friends with John. Valerie and my mother also became very close. Valerie and her family tried to help us in other aspects, such as offering us warm clothes we were in urgent need of at that time. And my mother loved to cook Indian food for Valerie’s family. We all believed that our friendship would last forever.
