Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了新研究揭示古玛雅农业并非文明衰落主因,复杂灌溉和梯田系统表明某些玛雅王国在公元350至900年间食物供应充足,生活舒适,为现代可持续农业提供了灵感。
1.B 推理判断题。第一段“‘There’s an explanation that describes the Maya as people who devoted themselves to unchecked (不加约束的) agricultural development,’ said Andrew Scherer, a professor at Brown University.‘The explanation goes: the population grew too large, the agriculture expanded, and then everything fell apart.’”展示了一种玛雅文明衰落的解释,由此可知,作者在本段想要展示的是一个关于玛雅文明衰落的长期存在的理论。故选B项。
2.C 细节理解题。根据第三段“The findings indicated that between AD 350—900, some Maya kingdoms were living comfortably, with no proven food insecurity.”以及第五段“…suggesting that these kingdoms were not only prepared for population growth but also likely harvested much more food than they could consume every year.”可知,研究人员通过研究发现玛雅王国社会中有足够的食物供应。故选C项。
3.A 细节理解题。根据第四段“When the team set about the survey, their primary motivation was to learn more about the infrastructure (基础设施) of regions that are unknown, owing to the thick forest that has long hidden ancient communities from view.”可推知,因为茂密的森林里长期以来一直隐藏着古老的社区,所以三个研究对象以前很少被研究。故选A项。
4.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段以及文章内容可知,古玛雅人可能为现代农业领域提供灵感,即古玛雅人实际上践行了可持续的耕种方法。故选C项。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。全球变暖不仅带来了海平面上升和极端天气事件,还在全球范围内引发了越来越多的气候焦虑,文章提供了一些处理自己相关情绪的方法。
1.G 根据前文“Global warming is not only bringing rising sea level and extreme weather events but also causing a growing wave of climate anxiety around the world. An international study found nearly six in ten people were very worried about climate change, while the young appeared to be particularly badly influenced.”和后文“Here are some effective ways to help deal with your feelings.”可知,此处是指要关心自己有关气候变化的情绪问题,所以选项G(因此,如果你正在与这个问题做斗争,请考虑照顾好你的心理健康。)切合文意。故选G。
2.D 根据后文“Not all information on the Internet is true, and you could be receiving misinformation.”可知,此处是指避免在网上接收不实信息,所以选项D(减少你上网的时间,尤其是花费在不值得信赖的资源上的那些。)切合文意。故选D。
3.A 根据后文“Joining a group of like-minded people to make a difference is a good way to get started and help you feel better.”可知,此处是指找到积极做贡献的方法,和前文“You alone can’t stop or undo climate change, so you needn’t place the responsibility on yourself.”构成转折关系,所以选项A(然而,你总能找到积极贡献的方法。)切合文意。故选A。
4.F 根据前文“A good therapist will address your negative emotions and thoughts about the environment in your conversations.”可知,此处是指好的治疗师能够起到的作用,所以选项F(这样的专业人士会认清你的感受,并与你一起管理它们。)切合文意。故选F。
5.C 根据前文“You can discover means to influence others with your own positive attitude.”可知,此处是对如何影响他人进行举例,所以选项C(例如,组织相关活动来教育你周围的人。)切合文意。故选C。
Ⅶ.【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了《孙子兵法》一书的价值及其对现代生活的启示。
1.written 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,works和write之间为逻辑上的被动关系,需用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填written。
2.to approach 考查非谓语动词。“how+不定式”结构作介词on的宾语,表示“如何得理这种冲突”。故填to approach。
3.is recommended/has been recommended 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,在why引导的表语从句中,it为主语,recommend为谓语动词,且根据句意可知,此处描述的是一般事实,也可理解成对现在造成的影响,用一般现在时或现在完成时,且it和recommend之间为被动关系,需用一般现在时或现在完成时的被动语态,且主语it表示单数意义,助动词用第三人称单数形式。故填is recommended/has been recommended。
4.that/which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,lessons为先行词,设空处需填关系词引导定语从句,且关系词在从句中作learn的宾语,需用关系代词that或which引导。故填that/which。
5.argument(s) 考查名词。分析句子结构,any后需接名词作宾语。故填argument(s)。
6.to 考查介词。此处表示“适用于……”,需用介词to。故填to。
7.equally 考查副词。设空处为状语修饰形容词important,应用副词作状语。故填equally。
8.the 考查冠词。根据句意可知,设空处应用the修饰形容词最高级表示“最大的错误”。故填the。
9.valuable 考查形容词。设空处需填形容词作定语修饰名词。故填valuable。
10.it 考查代词。分析句子结构可知,makes为定语从句中的谓语动词,后缺宾语,需用代词指代主句主语The Art Of War,这是一本书,需用it代替。故填it。Unit 11 CONFLICT AND COMPROMISE
Two people, father and son, who had lived in total isolation (隔离) from society for 40 years in a remote jungle in central Vietnam, have been brought back to normal life. To survive, they ate fruits, corn and only had clothes made of tree bark. They even built a tree house.
They are Ho Van Thanh, 82, and his son, Ho Van Lang, 42, who were found by some local people while they were travelling in a deep forest. Very surprised by abnormal appearances, gestures and manners of the “jungle men”, these people reported their finding to the local government, who set up a team to look for them, and after five hours of search in the forest, they caught the father and son staying in a small hut built on some branches of a large tree.
Due to being isolated from social contact for a long time, both the father and the son could only speak a little of the language of the local place.
After carrying out an investigation into the men’s identity, they found that Thanh once lived a normal life with his family at a local village 40 years ago. But one day at that time, a bombing happened in the village, killing Thanh’s wife and two of his three children on the spot. It is suspected that due to the shock, Thanh took his remaining son, two years old at the time, and ran away into this jungle. He and the son, now Ho Van Lang, had since lived their lonely life, without contact with anyone. Their daily foods were fruits and manioc (木薯) they found in the forest. It is believed that they also planted corn for food.
The district government has asked the local health agency to make medical check-ups for the father and the son, the first step in a process to get them back to society.

●Ⅴ 阅读理解
For years, experts in climate science and ecology have presented the agricultural practices of the ancient Maya as primary examples of what not to do. “There’s an explanation that describes the Maya as people who devoted themselves to unchecked (不加约束的) agricultural development,” said Andrew Scherer, a professor at Brown University. “The explanation goes: the population grew too large, the agriculture expanded, and then everything fell apart.”
But a new study, led by Scherer, suggests that that explanation doesn’t tell the full story.
Using a remote sensing technology, the team surveyed an area in the western Maya lowlands. The results revealed extensive systems of complex irrigation (灌溉) and terracing (阶梯状坡地), but no huge population increases to match. The findings indicated that between AD 350—900, some Maya kingdoms were living comfortably, with no proven food insecurity.
When the team set about the survey, their primary motivation was to learn more about the infrastructure (基础设施) of regions that are unknown, owing to the thick forest that has long hidden ancient communities from view. Therefore, the team chose to survey three Maya sites: Piedras Negras, La Mar and Sak Tz’i’.
The survey revealed signs of what the researchers call “agricultural intensification”—the adjustment of land to increase the volume of crop productivity. Agricultural intensification methods in these Maya kingdoms included building terraces and creating water management systems, suggesting that these kingdoms were not only prepared for population growth but also likely harvested much more food than they could consume every year.
Scherer said he hopes the study provides researchers with a different view of the ancient Maya. And perhaps it even offers inspiration to the modern-day agricultural field where people are looking for sustainable ways to grow food for an ever-growing global population.
( )1.What does the author intend to show in the first paragraph
A.Agricultural achievements of the ancient Maya.
B.A long-standing theory about the downfall of Maya.
C.Ecological impacts of Mayan agricultural practices.
D.A conflict between city expansion and population growth.
( )2.What did the researchers discover through their study
A.The rapid development of big towns.
B.The struggles of some Maya kingdoms.
C.The sufficient supply of food in the society.
D.The population explosion between AD 350—900.
( )3.What can be inferred about the three study subjects
A.They have been rarely researched before.
B.They had relatively advanced city planning.
C.They had well-known ancient communities.
D.They were once abandoned by their citizens.
( )4.What conclusion about the ancient Maya will the team draw
A.They dealt well with natural risks.
B.They faced severe water shortages.
C.They actually practised sustainable farming.
D.They struggled to control population growth.

Global warming is not only bringing rising sea level and extreme weather events but also causing a growing wave of climate anxiety around the world. An international study found nearly six in ten people were very worried about climate change, while the young appeared to be particularly badly influenced. 1. Here are some effective ways to help deal with your feelings.
2. Not all information on the Internet is true, and you could be receiving misinformation. Even if you stick to trusted sources, too much information may only worsen your feelings. Try to set a time limit for checking climate related content to avoid making your anxiety worse.
It is important to be aware of your own limitations. You alone can’t stop or undo climate change, so you needn’t place the responsibility on yourself. 3. Joining a group of like-minded people to make a difference is a good way to get started and help you feel better.
Talk therapy (谈话疗法) provides you with a chance to discuss your anxiety about climate issues. A good therapist will address your negative emotions and thoughts about the environment in your conversations. 4.
Positive changes have taken place at personal, community, and worldwide levels. And there is no reason to believe that they won’t continue, especially with your help. You can discover means to influence others with your own positive attitude. 5. Take on whatever role you feel comfortable with and remember to focus on your mental health on whatever path you choose.
A.However, you can always find ways to contribute positively.
B.Staying in natural green spaces has been shown to reduce stress.
C.For example, organize related activities to educate people around you.
D.Reduce your time spent online, especially on sources that are not trustworthy.
E.The UN has made a list of blogs and other news resources about climate issues.
F.Such a professional will recognize your feelings and work with you to manage them.
G.So consider taking care of your mental well-being if you are struggling with the issue.
