ACoach your favourite sports to poor children in schools. Help these children to get a structured sporting education and see their joy as they pick up new skills. If that’s not enough sport for you, you can even get involved in playing with local teams in your evenings and at weekends.DescriptionAs a volunteer sports coach, you and your group will head to 3 schools each day to coach your chosen sport or a variety of them. Sports coaching volunteering involves not just teaching the kids, but also acting as a good role model. Children are aged about 10–13 and are often new to playing sport in a structured environment. You don’t need to be a top player to take part (though any champions are welcome!) — it’s your patience and drive that will make the biggest effects.Which sports to coach?Sports coaching volunteers can choose to specialize in coaching just one sport, but often we find that it is best to combine several sports for more variety. The freedom to choose between different sports makes the weeks even more diverse. Follow the links to find out more about each sport.Accommodation·The accommodation is located in a leafy suburb 10 minutes’ drive from the city centre and the seafront.·Sports volunteers share accommodation with childcare and teaching volunteers.FoodAll dietary requirements can be catered for, as long as we know about them in advance. Coaching children in sport will make you hungry — many volunteers choose to supplement (补充) their meals with snacks bought in the local shops, just 10 minutes’ walk away. There is a volunteer kitchen where participants can do any cooking they wish outside of mealtimes.Want to go travelling afterwards?We can arrange a week-long Garden Route tour after your time on the project. Follow the link to find out more about the Garden Route Tour.1. What can a volunteer do in the evenings if he wants to do more sports?A. Drive to the supermarket.B. Pay a visit to 3 schools.C. Match with local teams.D. Have a Garden Route tour.2. Which is the most important as sports coaching volunteers?A. Being a top player.B. Being skilled in various sports.C. Being able to cook well.D. Being motivated and patient.3. Where is the text probably from?A. A web page.B. A news magazine.C. A travel guide.D. An education paper.BInstead of escaping the summer heat in air-conditioning indoors, Mustafa Furkan Ozgener prefers the sunshine in an experimental seed field of over 200 kinds of melons in Pingluo County, Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. Picking melons, weighing them, observing their growth, tasting, recording and taking pictures, the 31-year-old Turkish man runs his tests on up to 50 kinds of melons every day. “I love working in the field. Melons are favored in Turkey in the hot summers and my job here is to choose the best kinds for Turkish customers,” he said.Influenced by his father who used to do business in China, Ozgener majored in Chinese at university and therefore expected a journey to China one day. The young man visited China for the first time as an exchange student in Beijing. Two years later, Ozgener applied for a master’s degree in tourism management at China’s Sun Yat-sen University. Since then, he’s traveled around the country to learn about the colorful Chinese culture and enjoy different dishes. “The more I learn about China, the more I want to stay here,” said Ozgener. He worked as a translator in Ningxia after graduation.The company Ozgener works for now is a scientific and technological enterprise engaged in vegetable planting, production, promotion, import and export. It has bred over 70 new varieties of seeds and exported seeds to 27 countries and regions in Asia and Africa, including the Middle East.Before the outbreak of COVID-19, Ozgener would spend two months in Hainan and another four months in Ningxia to help foreign clients select seeds. Then he would go back to Turkey. But due to the epidemic (流行病), he has stayed in Ningxia for more than a year, observing and selecting target seeds in the field every day.“I used to do translation work only, but now I’m also responsible for all the stuff related to the seeds. It’s tiring but rewarding, because I can learn a lot. I will continue to pursue my dream here,” said Ozgener.4. Why does Ozgener work in the melon field in Ningxia?A. He likes the hot weather there.B. He prefers eating melons there.C. He loves working in the field there.D. His father wants him to work there.5. What do we know about Ozgener?A. He learned Chinese in Beijing as an exchange student.B. He worked in the field in Hainan after graduation.C. He traveled around China the first time he came there.D. He had a greater interest in China as time went by.6. What kind of person is Ozgener?A. Hard-working and determined.B. Energetic and patient.C. Kind and devoted.D. Ambitious and confident.7. What is the text mainly about?A. A man’s wonderful journey to China.B. Planting and selling melons in Turkey.C. A tiring job in the field in a hot summer.D. Going after a dream of planting seeds in Ningxia.CNow, a study proves that gardens are more than just a pretty place. The study, by researchers at Illinois State University, demonstrates that such constructed gardens can have a measurable and positive impact on water quality.Floating gardens are essentially platforms built and wrapped in coconut husks (椰子壳), and filled in with native plantings. As plants grow, they extend their roots into the water. On the North Branch of the Chicago River, non-profit Urban Rivers and its partners are developing a mile-long floating eco-park called the Wild Mile. The re-development of this former industrial canal is Urban Rivers’ important project. As part of the park, floating gardens, attached to shore, are being fixed.The primary aim of the floating gardens is beautification. But the Illinois State team, from the University’s Department of Geology, Geography, and the Environment, saw an ideal setup for a controlled experiment. “We joined it because it’s the perfect opportunity to see if there’s an influence on water quality,” explains lead author Abigail Heath.The study is novel: previous studies have explored floating gardens’ influence on water quality over time, primarily in wastewater treatment ponds, but not over space, in moving water. The project also matches well with Urban Rivers’ broader goals. “The city is interested in bettering water quality,” says Phil Nicodemus, Urban Rivers’ Director of Research. “Happily, Illinois State took part in it later.”Could this small human-made park improve water quality? An average of data collected over the course of the study shows middle but definitive improvement. For example, nitrogen (氮) dropped from 4.69 milligrams per liter in surface water to 4.43 milligrams per liter, a drop of about 1 percent.“Despite how small this garden was, there was measurable improvement in water quality from upstream to downstream,” notes Heath. She and her colleagues see this as a model for how large floating gardens should be to help improve water in similar settings. “Even this tiny garden makes a difference,” she says.8. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. The floating gardens are environmentally friendly.B. The floating gardens are fixed everywhere in the eco-park.C. The floating gardens can help fix the former parks.D. The Urban Rivers were once industrial canals.9. What is the main reason to build the floating gardens?A. To reduce waste water.B. To attract more visitors to the park.C. To make the surroundings brilliant.D. To help researchers do the experiment.A. The floating garden.B. The project.C. The treatment of ponds.D. The quality of water.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. Floating Gardens: More than PrettyB. The Best Way to Better Water QualityC. A Practical Method of Improving ParksD. Floating Gardens Beautify the CityDStressed at work and feeling your blood pressure rise? People all over the world are told by their doctors to try for a low-sodium (钠) diet to treat high blood pressure or other diseases, but there’s no denying that salt makes food taste good. Fortunately, Japanese researchers at Tokyo’s Meiji University and the manufacturer Kirin have developed high-tech chopsticks that enhance salty tastes, potentially helping those who need to reduce sodium in their diets.These wired-up chopsticks are actually part of a device that the researchers say can enhance the salty flavor of low-sodium foods. And when they were tested on participants for the first time, results showed that the high-tech chopsticks increase perceived (察觉到) saltiness in foods by about 1.5 times.According to the research team, the basic principle is that the extra salty flavor is perceived due to extremely weak electric currents conveyed directly into the mouth through the tip of one of the chopsticks. Scientists have apparently been using this kind of weak electricity to play with flavors in the lab for years, but these chopsticks in particular are set to adjust the activity of ions (离子) in sodium chloride (table salt), which enhances salty flavor.And do these chopsticks work as expected? To verify the effect of the new chopsticks, the researchers conducted an experiment on a total of 36 participants aged 40 to 65, all of whom were eating a low-sodium diet. If nothing else, one thing was clear: participants using the chopsticks tasted more salt than they did without. Results show that they even thought that low-sodium food eaten with the high-tech chopsticks tasted saltier than regular food made with an average amount of sodium, and eaten with normal chopsticks.The chopsticks aren’t on store shelves quite yet, but with promising results, people around the world who are unhappily devoted to a low-sodium diet might just be excited for any updates to come!12. What is the main function of the future high-tech chopsticks?A. To treat blood pressure.B. To test how salty a dish is.C. To increase the saltiness of food.D. To help reduce salt intake.13. How do the high-tech chopsticks work?A. By sending warning information to the brain.B. By changing the saltiness of food with electric shocks.C. By using electricity to transport ions between chopsticks.D. By tricking our brains into tasting extra salt.A. Confirm.B. Improve.C. Change.D. Strengthen.15. What is the writer’s attitude toward the future of the chopsticks?A. Doubtful.B. Optimistic.C. Uncertain.D. Pessimistic.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。

Superstar singer,songwriter, actress and pop-culture icon Miley Cyrus takes a red chair on Season 13 alongside the show’s returning coaches Adam Levine and Blake Shelton and the host Carson Daly◎Saturday Night LiveSaturday Night Live, the Emmy Award-winning late-night comedyshow, enters its 45th season for another year of laughs, surprises and great performances.

B．The VoiceC．America’s Got Talent D．Saturday Night LiveAccording to CBS Minnesota, the golden retriever (寻回犬) named Marvel was the only one in her litter born without a front right paw (爪子). She’s since been taken in by the Williams family in Waconia, whose 7-year-old son, Paxton Williams, had his right leg cut away three years ago.Rolling Oaks Goldens breeder Barb Felt found the Williams family through a friend, Paxton’s doctor. “When she was born, we knew right away she had a special purpose,” Felt said. “We wanted her to go in a home with someone who had a limb (肢体) differen ce.”Paxton was born before the time was enough, which caused the boy to develop a serious problem in his right leg, which stunted the limb’s growth. Three years ago, Paxton’s parents made the difficult decision to have the boy’s right leg amputated andre placed with an artificial limb. Paxton’s mother, Stephanie, appreciates how their new pet addition helps her son normalize his physical differences.“It gives him the opportunity to tell the kids, ‘Oh, she’s missing a paw, she’s like me,’” the mom explained. “Just like it gives him that voice to advocate for himself.”Blaine, Paxton’s father, has also been moved by seeing Paxton andMarvel enjoy walks together on trails near their house. “It’s like they knew they were special,” Blaine said. “The amount of e motions was running through me at the time,” he continued. “It was just awesome because she was in the perfect place at the perfect time.”Marvel might need a wheelchair or an artificial paw of her own as she grows larger and gets older. The family hopes that Paxton will someday be able to run with his artificial leg and that Marvel will be there to run beside him.4．When did Paxton lose one of his limbsA．When he was born.

It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food. Some parents and pet owners pay up to 200 percent more for organic food while some people think organic food is a waste of money. There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). This makes sure that the products are natural. Some people think “organic” means “locally grown”. In the beginning, this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren’t enough organic materials. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious ( 有营养的) This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers (消费者) believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems, such as cancer. Many health experts disagree. Few studies prove that organic food prevents health problems. Health experts worry more about bacteria (细菌). These can come into contact with organic and non-organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce verycarefully.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money This is a matter of opinion.

Those two countries have not suffered like this in a quarter-century, destroying farmland and threatening the area with serious hunger.“Even cows are wondering what is happening,” said NdundaMakanga, who spent hours Friday trying to run after the locusts from his farm. “Corn, sorgh um, cowpeas, they have eaten everything.”“Even a small group of the insects can eat enough food for 35, 000 people in a single day,” said Jens Laerke of the UN humanitarian office in Geneva.About 70. 000 hectares(172, 973 acres)of land in Kenya are attacked. A single swarm can contain up to 150 million locusts per square kilometer of farmland, an area the size of almost 250 football fields, the officials say.“We must act immediately,” said David Phiri of the UN Food and Agricultural Organization.About $70 million is needed to apply aerial pesticide (杀虫剂), the only effective way to fight them, the UN says. That won’t be easy, especially in Somalia.Shocked by the finger-length insects, children run here and there, waving blankets (毛毯)to shake the locusts free. Farmers are afraid to let their cattle out, and their crops are in danger, but there is little they can do.One especially large group in northeastern Kenya measured 60 kilometers long by 40 kilometers wide(37 miles long by 25 miles wide).“The locals are really frightened because they can eat everything,” said Francis Kitoo, deputy director of agriculture in southeastern Kenya’s Kitui County. “I’ve never seen such a big number. They will lay eggs and start another generation,” he said.12．How does the author describe the outbreak of desert locusts A．By telling a story. B．By explaining causes.C．By listing numbers. D．By reporting comments.13．What helps control the locusts bestA．Staying indoors B．Letting their cattle out.C．Using pesticide. D．Waving blankets.14．What’s Francis Kitoo’s attitude towards the future A．Concerned. B．Confused.C．Confident D．Hopeful.15．What is mainly talked about in the passageA．Hunger threatening East Africa.B．The causes of the locusts outbreak.C．An overall impression of East AfricaD．A disaster brought by locusts in East Africa.二、七选五Many hear endlessly how good exercise is for our health, but you might be surprised to know just how good. ____16____It helps you breathe better.Frequent exercise improves the volume of oxygen you can use in your body.

If you aren’t sure1．Which combines news and stories to reflect American culture?A．The Writer’s Voice.B．This American Life.C．The Joe Rogan Experience.D．Overheard at National Geographic. 2．Why is the Joe Rogan Experience a great learning device?A．Due to its education in cultural exchange.B．On account of its great number of episodes.C．Owing to its concentration on one subject.D．Because of its funny talks hosted by Rogan.3．What can be learned from the podcast — Overheard at National Geographic?A．It has accounts from specific professionals.B．It is about the discussions to break off work.C．Its subjects cover comedy, science and sports.D．It is full of cultural references and local idioms.My husband and I recently went on a package holiday. Eyebrows (眉毛) were raised. I am a travel writer, you see, and so people expect me to be doing things such as backpacking between hand-selected fincas (庄园) in Spain or carefully planning an independent Italian food tour.I don’t want to check every airline for the cheapest flights or research local taxi fares to avoid being cheated at the airport. My time, like yours, is valuable. Honestly, I just want somebody else to do the boring things for me. This is where the good old package holiday comes in. Reliable and extremely easy to book, a package holiday takes care of all the details for you. My goodness, I want that — and I am not alone.Even better, a package holiday comes with support. Sunvil, for example, has 60enthusiastic travel experts in its London office, as well as numerous representatives around the world. All are ready to offer proper, in-the-know (消息灵通的) advice on everything from the best restaurants to the must-visit spots. There are short trips that Sunvil’s own travel experts have enjoyed, and when it comes to finding a place to stay, the majority of Sunvil accommodation is locally owned and has been checked out thoroughly.This sort of expert knowledge is invaluable. On my package holiday earlier this year, I was determined to try the local restaurant, and my representative told me how to hire a car for a day’s exploration and which sights were worth making time for. I may have been on a package holiday, but my experience was entirely personal.And so, when I returned from my holiday, I told my friends that I had become a fan of package holidays. I love the peace of mind that comes with knowing there is a support system in place. I love the expert knowledge that can lead me to the freshest fish and sunniest beach. And above all, I don’t have to do any of the boring things. This is truly the way to travel. 4．What can we infer about travelling from the second paragraph?A．Most tourists choose the cheapest flights.B．We should learn to avoid getting cheated.C．Package holidays area brand-new concept.D．The author prefers to have others arrange her tour.5．What do we know about Sunvil from the third paragraph?A．It has checked all the offered hotels.B．Its staff give suitable suggestions.C．It tends to recommend short trips.D．It has 60 travel agencies in London.6．What does the author enjoy doing?A．Taking care of all her details.B．Hiring a bike for exploration. C．Tasting the freshest fish.D．Leading people to the beach.7．What is the theme of the text?A．How to choose a travel route.B．What a package holiday lacks. C．Why I go for a package holiday.D．When to take a package holiday.Nobel prize-winners, well-known authors, and famous scientists — you might think all these people were born to be creative. However, that’s not always the case.While well-known figures like Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein did their most significant work in their youth, famous American poet Robert Frost and English-born natural scientist Charles Darwin were known as “late bloomers” — people whose talents were not noticeable until later in life.This idea of “peaking” at different times inspired new research from the United States. “Many people believe that creativity is exclusively (独有地) associated with youth, but it really depends on what kind of creativity you’re talking about,” said Bruce Weinburg, a professor of economics at the University of Chicago and co-author of the study.According to the study, published earlier this month in the journal De Economis t, there are two types of people: conceptual (概念的) and experimental thinkers.To reach this conclusion, researchers took the 31 previous winners of the Nobel Prize in economics and arranged them according to when they did their most significant work, to identify their creative peaks.Some peaked from ages 25 — 29. Classified as conceptual thinkers, these people think outside of the box, coming up with new ideas before they become used to the conventional way of doing things.The second creative peak came with economists in their 50s. These are experimental thinkers who have been in their fields for a long time. This allows them to learn from errors and experiment with different processes, before eventually finding new solutions.“Whether you hit your creative peak early or late in your career depends on whether you have a conceptual or experimental approach,” said Weinburg. He added that their study isn’t limited to economics, saying it can apply to other creative subjects. So if you’re struggling to come up with new ideas, don’t panic. Your creative peak maybe yet to arrive.8．What does the author indicate by mentioning Robert Frost in Paragraph 2?A．Some people stand out in their later life.B．Robert Frost is a famous natural scientist.C．It’s better to be late bloomers in literature.D．Creativity makes a difference to success.9．How did the researchers draw the conclusion: there are two types of creative people? A．By referring to some data.B．By doing some experiments.C．By interviewing some creative people.D．By adopting the means of logic reasoning.10．What can we learn about conceptual thinkers?A．They owe their success to life experience.B．They adopt common scientific approaches.C．They follow a new pattern of thinking.D．They learn from errors and experiments.11．What does Weinburg probably agree with?A．Creative peaks never come for some.B．The older, the less likely to succeed.C．Most people prefer conceptual thinking.D．Great creativity can arrive at different stages.The beautiful city of Montreal, Canada, is these days receiving negotiators, scientists, environmentalists and political leaders from all corners of the world to agree on a framework to halt and reverse nature loss by the end of this decade. One of the heated discussions in Montreal is about conserving 30 percent of the world’s land, freshwater and oceans by 2030.The history of mankind as of the end of the 20th century has been a story of development at the expense of nature. Now, in order to restore nature, we need to mobilize the citizens of the world for win-win solutions to the crisis.First suggestion, if we want to create harmony between man and nature, we need to win the hearts and minds of the local people. One of the shining examples is Rwanda, which, though a small, landlocked (内陆的) country in Africa, has one of the most immensely beautiful landscapes I have seen anywhere in the world. It has been incredibly successful in increasing the number of previously threatened gorillas. If you’re a tourist, you pay a significant amount of money to see Rwanda’s gorillas. And that creates a fantastic economy for the taxi drivers, the hotel staff, the teachers and the tourist guides in the neighborhood of Volcanoes National Park. That means that no one in the neighborhood will kill a gorilla for bush meat (野味). The local residents there are the first line of defense for the gorillas, because it is a crucial source of income and a big job creator in the region. It’s a win-win solution.Second suggestion, we need to ask businesses to participate. In the past, business was a force of destruction for nature. Jobs came from destroying the beautiful landscapes on Earth.In other words, we created economic development by destroying nature. Now, in the 21st century, we can create economic growth and restore nature at the same time. Indonesia stopped deforestation last year, thanks to a combination of good government policy and good business practice. RGE, a paper, pulp (纸浆) and palm oil company, develops huge harvests.Third suggestion, we need to work with citizens at large. In India, the chief minister of conservation a reason the island of Sumatra and protects as much of the green trees as it the big state of Madhya Pradesh is planting one tree every day to inspire 80 million people in his state to do likewise.12．How do local residents in Rwanda try to earn their income?A．By attracting tourists there.B．By treating tourists with bushmeat.C．By raising and selling wild animals.D．By replacing forests with a lot of farmland.13．What does the underlined word “reverse” in paragraph 1mean?A．Stop believing in something.B．Change something to the opposite trend.C．Consider something in order to make a judgment.D．Describe something so that it can be understood.14．What does the second suggestion in paragraph 4 imply?A．Business has a negative effect on economy.B．Business suffers from nature conservation.C．Business can contribute to the protection of nature.D．Business has the potential to improve people’s health.15．Which can serve as the best title for the news report?A．Every Effort Counts to Preserve NatureB．How to Conserve 30 Percent of the World’s LandC．Ways to Create Harmony between Man and AnimalsD．Man’s Story of Development at the Expense of Nature二、七选五Unforgettable Book Throws Light on Racism (种族歧视)Today, I would like to recommend a book to you, which taught me an important lesson about prejudice and racism. ____16____ The story is set in Alabama in the southern US, where the author grew up.The main character in this novel is a lawyer named Atticus Finch from the American South. The American South in the 1960s was known to be a place where many white people looked down upon black people, except for Finch. When the local judge asked him to defend a black man named Tom Robinson, who was wrongly accused of raping a white woman, Finch agreed. ____17____ Still, Finch fought to discover the truth, even though he was under threat. He proved that Robinson is innocent (清白的). As Finch’s son Jem and daughter Scout grew up, they started to see more racial prejudice around them. ____18____ The author Lee was born in Monroeville, Alabama in 1926. In her childhood, she, like Scout and Jem, learned about racial prejudice and the damage it could do. To Kill a Mockingbird was her first and only novel published. ____19____For me, the most memorable quotes in the book are “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but… sing their hearts out for us. ____20____” The description of childhood innocence in the story through Scout and Jem is connected with the dark evils of prejudice in the town, which provides a dramatic contrast and enables you to understand how dangerous racism and prejudice are. I want to recommend this book because it contains slightly complex and interesting sentence structures. It is a book that you will never forget.A．It took her seven years to complete.B．Racism exists at all levels of society.C．People worked for the rights of black people.D．But many people tried to stop Finch from doing his job.E．That’s why it is morally and totally wrong to kill a mockingbird.F．To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel published in1960 by American author Harper Lee. G．And they finally understood the importance of looking at the world with an unprejudiced mind.三、完形填空When 48-year-old Lamont Thomas became an empty-nester (空巢者), it was the end of养的) kid named Michael Perez.“He was a good young man and I just hated to see him in the welfare system,” Lamont said.

It became totally gray in his right eye and he couldn’t see anything. After finally seeing the doctor, he was told that he had suffered a retinal detachment（视网眼脱离）.Eric had two surgeries in the following fifteen days, both unsuccessful. He lost the vision in his right eye permanently.He spent the next eight years adjusting to living with one eye while pursuing his passion for movies. He got an entry-level job with Harkins Theatres and worked his way up with on巳goal in mind, which was to be a gene1划manager and run his own Harkins. Unfortunately, he developed myopic degeneration（近视性恶化）in his left eye, which caused damage to the retina. The disease progressed quickly over the next three years, leaving him almost blind. He could s巳巳shadows of peopl巳and objects, but he couldn’t make out details. Eric was forced to quit the job, going on his long-term disability.Instead of despairing, he charted a new course for his life. And he found inspiration in an activity that one might not associat巳with people who have visual impairments（缺陷）running. Three years on, he was training for the New York City Marathon, With the help of a sighted guide, he was hoping to finish the race in four hours.”I want to run it for those people that were denied because they were different or because they woke up one day and had a dramatic loss or whatever it was，”Eric said.”And I also want to run to prove to myself that I can run it in four hours.”His eyesight faded.

But those seeds on any given dandelion have different fates. Some are to float north wh巳n the wind blows them, while others are fated to fly east, south, w巳st or some direction in between.“How do dandelion seeds respond to the wind depends on where th巳y sit on th巳dandelion head？”says Jena Shields, a biophysicist at Cornell University in Ithaca.One day, Jena happened to watch her little child play with dandelions. She noticed that the dandelion seeds didn’t all fall o仔the same. Some came [oos巳mor巳easily than others, but it d巳pended on how the child blew on the se巳d h巳ads.Jena got the inspiration for the research f r om it. So Jena set out to study what was going on.She measured th巳force it takes to blow dandelion seeds away. T o start with, she glued（幸占贴）a wire to the different seeds. Then she pulled them at various angles. T his seed-by-seed study旦旦监旦what happens when the wind pushes them over.The findings show that each seed falls off most easily in the wind from one direction, and seeds from on巳head don’t go the same way. The feathery seeds on the side facing th巳wind will fall off most easily. The oth巳rs hold on more tightly until the wind shifts. Besides, once blown off a dandelion, a seed’s umbrella-like feather carries it on the wind that pulled it away. And it helps explain why the plants are so successful in spreading.However, Jena also found an exception. A sudden strong blow was still able to blow all the seeds away in the same direction. So when a strong wind blows or excit巳d children try their best to blow, all the seeds could be blown off at once.8、Why did Jena do research on dandelion seeds?A. To correct p巳ople’s misconception of dandelions.B.To satisfy her child’s curiosity about dandelions.C. To explain why dandelions fly far without wind.D. To figure out how dandelion seeds react to wind.9、What does the underlin巳d word”mimicked”in paragraph 3 mean?A.Predicted.B.Copied.C.Explored.D.Proved.10、What did Jena Shields' research prove about dandelion seeds?A. They tend to fly in one direction.B.Th巳y fly for the similar distance.C.They come off easier in the wind f r om one direction.D.They break free from feathers to fly once coming off.11、What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A.To make up for the research. C.To make a summary of the text.B.To stress the point of the text.D. To provide examples f o r the research.Plastic waste is choking our planet. P巳ople are trying to help fix it by recycling, but their巳fforts aren’t going far enough. Ev巳n when plastic producers are held responsible and attempt to solve the problem, it do巳sn't always go smoothly. Such has b巳en the case for the company Torus Pak, which produces novel packaging for frozen meals on a large scale.Like many other black plastic products, the Torus Pak packages used a carbon-based pigment（颜料）.This pigment troubles the sorting technology which is used by many recycling facilities, so black plastic usually巳nds up being thrown away because the machines can’t identify it. Now the company is midway through the complex process of phasing out that pigment and switching由at pigment to one由at doesn’t use carbon.But that doesn't mean the problem is solved, for the recycling rate at the waste facility it­self is not encouraging. Your discarded plastic may end up in a land tll even if you send it to be 1毛cycled.Worldwide, only about nine p巳rcent of all the plastic waste has been recycled, which amounts to less than 600 million tons out of over 6 billion. W hile one might assume the proportion of plastic being recycled is on the increase due to improv巳d tech and increased public awareness of environmental protection, it’s actually become even lower in many places in r巳cent years.”The world wasn’t always flooded with single-use plastic products，”said Lisa Ramsden, senior plastic campaigner for Gree叩eace USA.”We know how to live without them. We’ve just got used to a convenience culture that relies so heavily on them.”The solution is obvious. To get out of this habit, we should stop using so much plastic, starting with many of th巳items we use just onc巳for a few minutes. Companies need to shift toward using more refillable and reusable container飞and packaging made from materials that are less harmful to the environment. Governments must mandate（强制执行）such changes-a goal we’re now finally inching closer to every day.12、What is the problem with Torus Pak packages?A.They are expensive f o r customers.B.They are hard to de白ne recyclable.C.Their pigment is hardly appealing.D.Their production process is complex.13、What does the author mainly stress in paragraph 3?A. The reason for recycling plastic waste.B. The potential of recycling plastic waste.C.The outcome of recycling plastic waste.D.The objective of recycling plastic waste.14、What is advised to solve the plastic pollution in the text?A.Advancing recycling t巳chnology.B.Making som巳stricter relevant laws.C.Setting higher environmental goals.D.Reducing th巳use of plastic products.15、Which can b巳the best tit！巳for the text?A.Recycling fails to solve plastic pollutionB.A company contributes a lot to re地yclingC.Great changes happen in r巳，cycling plasticD.Plastic pollution is increasingly worsening二、七选五16、Friction（摩擦力）is a very familiar force in everyday life. It always acts to slow things down. Sometimes we may mistake f r iction for traction（拉力）.Friction is the force feltb巳tween two surfaces, while衍action is the action that results.①一一.But衍action can be increased when things like that change.The material a surface is made from affects how much friction it creates. We can see how it works by thinking of everyday o均ects.If we rub our fingers along a pi巳ce of sandpap巳r,we can feel how rough it脱②一＿.lt’s much smoother than the sandpap巳r,but it still feels a bit rough.

I n fact, we are not sliding across th巳ice but liquid waterE.

ACoding(编码)apps and programming apps for kids are becoming increasingly popular.Here are some of the best apps for teaching kids to code.ScratchScratch is by far the most popular coding app for kids,and it is now used in many schools all over the world. It is available for free on the web as well as for Android and iOS,which is why it is so popular.Created in2003 by MIT students and staff,its coding language is designed for children aged7to16.The language employs visual blocks or bricks that can be dragged and dropped on a workspace to construct logical chains.As a result,the child will have a better understanding of the fundamental principles of coding.Daisy the DinosaurDaisy the Dinosaur is a free iPad and iPhone programming app.What distinguishes it from the rest is that it is designed specifically for children aged4to7.The app was developed by the same team that created the Hopscotch coding app for kids.If you’ve ever used that app,Daisy the Dinosaur has a similar user-friendly interface with limited features that is best for beginners.Cargo-BotCargo-Bot is a free coding app that is available for both Android and iOS devices.It is appropriate for children aged10and up.This app specialises in puzzle challenges involving a robotic arm that must be programmed to perform various tasks,most notably moving coloured boxes to create a specific design or pattern.Kodable试卷第1页，共9页Another relatively well-known coding app for kids is Kodable.’It is free for:both the iPhone and iPad,but there is no option for Android or the web.Kodable is appropriate for both younger children and older teenagers(from8years old and up).It is also remarkable for guiding users from a basic to a complex level of coding.The approach is very game-like,with users able to select a character to guide them through the levels. 1．Why is Scratch so popular?A．It can be adjusted by students in school.B．It was developed at the earliest time.C．It is free to use on several platforms.D．It helps children understand coding principles.2．Which app is suitable for learners of5years old?A．Scratch,B．Daisy the Dinosaur.C．Cargo Bot.D．Kodable.3．What can be known about Kodable?A．It has different levels.B．It has many difficult puzzles.C．It uses visual blocks or bricks to perform tasks.D．Its development team created the Hopscotch coding app.BEveryone deserves to love where he or she live.That’s why Tash Frootko,a property developer in Gloucester, England,began the Rainbow Street project in her quiet town four years ago.Frootko brought a new life to her properties by brightening the outside of each home,transforming her neighborhood into a colorful place.Now,she is partnering with local street artists to take her project a step further and turn Gloucester’s city center into a Rainbow Square.“We didn’t get recognition from local people at first.But later,an unexpected outcome happened,”said Frootko.“It has brought the community together really well,“Michelle,a local citizen said.“If it wasn’t for Frootko, then none of us would have come out and spoken to each other.”“I actively seek out areas that can’t receive enough attention and turn them into huge attractive colors for everyone to enjoy and add a much-needed cultural boost for the city,”Frootko said.The new Rainbow Square includes an even more special design.Frootko convinced two street artists to get on board and contribute large murals to two buildings on the Square.Power,a street artist and printmaker,has worked on community art projects across the UK.She said,“This was truly a labour of love.With a uniquely试卷第2页，共9页designed typeface,shadows and gold leaf,I hope that this mural becomes a much-loved landmark of the city and makes the city attractive.”The final result of the project was a huge hit,turning a once sleepy collection of streets into a place that celebrates joy and culture.Every local citizen and visitor who walks by is sure to have their day brightened by the art of the Rainbow Square.And all of this is related to Frootko’s strong willpower.4．Why did Frootko set up the Rainbow Street project?A．To find talented street artists.B．To brighten everyone’s day.C．To beautify where she lived.D．To make a profit for her company.5．What is the local people’s attitude to Frootko’s Rainbow Square initially?A．Supportive.B．Suspicious.C．Cautious.D．Tolerant.6．What does Power think of the mural on the Rainbow Square?A．It helps improve her skills.B．It is fit to promote culture.C．It shows her talent for art.D．It adds to Gloucester’s charm.7．Which word can best describe Frootko?A．Determined.B．Courageous.C．Humorous.D．Generous.CTomatoes are common in daily life.Cat hie Martin,British scientist,has been working on developing purple tomatoes for years.Though the color is unusual,now this special kind of tomatoes has very high levels of antioxidants(AOS,抗氧化剂).AOS are found naturally in plants like blueberries and red cabbage.Scientists believe AOS may help prevent heart disease and help fight against diseases like diabetes(糖尿病).But tomatoes naturally only have a small amount of AOS in them.Martin wanted to see if she could create tomatoes with lots of AOS by changing the DNA of a tomato plant.A plant developed from specially created DNA is known as a GMO(转基因生物).Martin added two genes(基因)from a plant called snapdragon.Soon her plants were producing small purple tomatoes with lots of AOS.Even better,the tomatoes remained fresh almost twice as long as normal tomatoes.Martin and other scientists further tested the tomatoes on mice that were likely to get cancer.The mice that were fed the purple tomatoes lived about30%longer than those fed normal tomatoes.Though that’s good news,experiments on mice don’t always predict what effects on humans will be the same.We need to see more experiments about it.GMOs were first allowed in America in the late1990s.But GMO products weren’t popular with customers. Many people were scared by the idea that the foods weren’t natural or safe.There’re still questions about the effects of GMO crops on the environment.However,scientists deny these claims.试卷第3页，共9页Even so,many people have concerns about them.Because of these concerns,most GMO products created over the last20years have focused on helping farmers rather than attracting customers.Anyway,on September7,2022,the US approved the purple tomatoes,which is the first time it has approved a GMO plant designed to target human health.8．Why did Martin experiment on purple tomatoes?A．They are available easily.B．They have a special color.C．They don’t have enough AOS.D．They can stop some diseases.9．What’s the author s attitude to the test on the mice?A．Favorable.B．Unclear.C．Unsupportive.D．Doubtful.10．What does the underlined word“so”in Paragraph5refer to?A．The environment affects GMO foods.B．The customers do not like GMO foods.C．GMO products are used to help farmers.D．Scientists think GMO products are safe.11．What’s the suitable title for the text?A．Different DNA Can Benefit Plant GrowthB．Scientists Are Changing DNA of TomatoesC．Tomatoes with Changed DNA Are ApprovedD．Human Health Depends on Changed DNADWhen my two boys have free time,they want to go to the mall.No,they aren’t shop-a-holics(购物狂).They want to go to gaze at sneakers.These aren’t the sneakers you find in Foot Locker.They are limited editions—usually Nikes—that range in price from$250-$900or more.There’s the Chunky Dunkys,a collaboration between Nike and ice cream maker Ben and Jerry’s.And the Space Jam Jordans.And dozens of other pairs of shoes,all of which they know by name and all of which are very,very expensive.That made me wonder:How did this sneaker culture develop?After all,when I was a kid,I wanted Jordan brand shoes too.But they cost$100and I would wear them until they fell apart.Now,my boys long for shoes that cost ten times that and if they got them,they would never even think of scuffing them up by wearing them.It all started during the Industrial Revolution,when the very wealthy began to find they had leisure time on their hands,Elizabeth Semmelhack,who runs the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto,told me.“These’nouveau riche(暴发户)’industrialists wanted to show that they had arrived.And so,the ancient试卷第4页，共9页game of tennis was revived.”explained Semmelhack,“But the problem with lawn tennis—one,the lawns of lawn tennis are extremely expensive,so they didn’t want people to run around in leather shoes.And two,when you play on lawn,you can get your feet wet.So rubber soled shoes,the sneaker,was invented as something that the wealthy could wear as they pursued these wealthy pleasures.Besides,rubber was,at the time,quite expensive,so having shoes with rubber soles was seen as a status symbol.”But for most of us,sneakers were something you wore—not something you collected.With the development of internet,older versions of shoes could be purchased and collected.And sneaker companies,Nike especially, leaned into the trend.12．What is the Chunky Dunkys?A．It’s a company’s name.B．It’s a kind of ice cream.C．It’s a kind of limited edition sneaker.D．It’s one of the author’s kids’name.13．Why did the author mention his experience as a kid?A．To show he was poor when he was a kid.B．To encourage his children to wear cheap shoes.C．To give an example about the development of sneaker culture.D．To show Jordan brand shoes have been popular for a long time.14．What can we know from Semmelhack’s words?A．Rubber soled shoes could prevent feet from wetting.B．These‘nouveau riche’industrialists created lawn tennis.C．Leather shoes were more expensive than rubber soled shoes.D．The very wealthy were busy with their work during Industrial Revolution.15．What does the author’s attitude towards collecting sneakers?A．Objective.B．Critical.C．Favourable.D．Unconcerned.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。
