It’s what the now 18-year-old soccer playertreasures, especially since Kenya has an ongoing problem with deforestation.Mutunkei follows in the footsteps of the late Kenyan Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai who foundedthe Green Belt Movement in 1977. This initiative has resulted in the planting of over 51 million trees to date.In 2018, Lesein decided to start a movement of his own. He started by planting one tree for every goal hescored during a football match. He called it Trees4Goals, and it has grown so much that he now plants 11 trees, onefor each member of his team, every time he scores. Through this, he wants to inspire young people, specifically hisfellow athletes, to follow in his footsteps, take nature conservation seriously, and promise to plant trees every timethey score. As a result, some of them have adapted this practice for their sports. “Seeing that they’re taking thatresponsibility because of the project I started, for me, that is the biggest achievement,” he said.The initiative has caught the attention of English football club Arsenal and Kenya’s Ministry of Environmentand Forestry, which he now works with regularly and gets advice from.Like Green Belt Movement, Trees4Goals, which has planted 5,500 trees so far, has made it. While Lesein hasreceived some recognition for his initiative, he sets his sights on making it a worldwide phenomenon. “Football is auniversal game, and climate change is a universal problem,” he explains. “It has the power to unite, educate andinspire my generation to create a safer and greener future.” This is why he wants to work with the world’s biggestfootball federation FIFA.As for what others can do to fight deforestation or other environmental concerns, the teenager says it’simportant to just get involved in some way, no matter how small.24.

The country also has one of the highest life expectancies in the world; in2020, nearly one in 1,500 people in Japan were age 100 or older, according to government data.These trends have driven a growing population problem, with a rapidly aging society, a shrinking workforceand not enough young people to fill the gaps in the stagnating(停滞)economy. The country’s high cost of living,limited space and lack of child care support in cities make it difficult to raise children, meaning fewer couples arehaving kids. Experts point to the pessimism young people in Japan hold towards the future, many frustrated withwork pressure and economic stagnation.How about other parts of East Asia South Korea recently broke its own record for the world’s lowest birthrate, with data from November 2023 showing a South Korean woman will have an average of 0.79 children in herlifetime — far below the 2.1 needed to maintain a stable population. Japan’s birth rate stands at 1.3, while theUnited States is at 1.6. Meanwhile, China’s population shrank in 2022 for the first time, adding pressure to itseconomic growth.28. How does the Japanese government feel about the falling birth rate A. Surprised. B. Confused.C. Embarrassed. D. Worried.29. Which of the following has led the birth rate in Japan to decline A. The rapidly aging society.B. The high life expectancies.C. The shortage of workforce.D. The various stresses of life.30. What are the statistics in the last paragraph used to show A. Ignorance of the birth rate.B. Serious population crisis.C. Weak care services for children.D. Potential harm to women’s health.31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear A. Society. B. Health.C. Education. D. Science.DScientists have found a new way to break down a group of harmful chemicals very hard to get rid of. Thediscovery could help solve a dangerous and growing problem — how to clean up the pollution of “foreverchemicals”.The group of chemicals known as PFAS(全氟烷基物)are pretty amazing. They’re non-stick, waterproof,and oil proof. They don’t burn easily or dissolve(溶解)in water. So scientists got really excited when they werediscovered. Businesses started putting PFAS in all sorts of products, from non-stick pans to waterproof clothes, andfrom fire-fighting spray to carpets that resist stains. Even things like food wrappers and floss for cleaning your teethcontain PFAS chemicals.But after a while, scientists realized the same things that made the chemicals useful also caused a real problem— PFAS doesn’t break down in nature. It doesn’t dissolve in water or bum. Not even bacteria can break PFASdown. No wonder these chemicals are known as “forever chemicals”.As a result, PFAS chemicals surge in the environment. The chemicals are found in air, water, and dirt aroundthe world — and in animals and people. In the US, 97% of humans have PFAS in their blood.Luckily, scientists in the US have now found a way to break down some PFAS chemicals. Their solutionrequires boiling PFAS with two other very common chemicals. These chemicals can be found in just about anylaboratory.Dr. Brittany Trang, one of the scientists involved, said she didn’t even want to test the idea at first. “I thoughtit was too simple,” she said. But the process worked.The research involved 10 types of PFAS, including two of the most common kinds. That’s a big step. Butthere are over 12,000 different kinds of PFAS. It’s important to note that the new method can only break downPFAS chemicals that have already been collected. Figuring out how to remove PFAS chemicals from theenvironment and collect them remains a huge challenge.32. What can we infer about PFAS chemicals from paragraph 2 A. Scientists were so excited to invent them.B. They were environmentally friendly at first.C. They are really widely used in our daily life.D. They have more advantages than disadvantages.33. What does the underlined word “surge” in paragraph 4 refer to A. Increase fast. B. Float everywhere.C. Extend fully. D. React quickly.34. What does the author think of dealing with PFAS chemicals A. It’s already too late to get rid of them.B. There’s still a long way to go about it.C. The new method is too simple to work well.D. It’s impossible to get them removed from the environment.35. Which is the best title for the text A. Say Goodbye to Forever ChemicalsB. PFAS Chemicals Are a Two-edged SwordC. PFAS Chemicals Will Remain a Challenge for LongD. Scientists Find a Way to Break down Forever Chemicals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。Is going alone in an unknown area the right way to go, or do you want a tour guide to show you the highlights I think that you can combine the two ways in one trip and have the best of both worlds. 36 The bestpurchase we made was for a bus tour that would take us around the capital and point out all the main sites. Thatallowed us the next day to travel on foot to the ones we especially wanted to see.Let’s look at the San Francisco Bay Area which is another one of my favorite vacation spots. Some areas areso familiar to tourists that it’s possible to view the attractions on your own. 37 Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier39 are good examples. Just by walking a few blocks, you can tour Aquarium of the Bay and the Riptide Arcade onPier 39.38 If you go to Alcatraz Island, you have a choice of going alone, having a live tour guide or beingguided by earphones. I would recommend the live tour guides. I went all three ways, and I received moreenjoyment by someone telling me items interest I know I had missed on previous tours. 39 It gives you abehind-the-scenes look of colorful Chinatown. The tour covers history, traditions of the local people and culturethat you probably wouldn’t know or see by travelling alone.You can go alone to attractions or take a guided tour. It’s your choice and you can choose whichever wouldgive you the most memorable experience. 40A. I recommend both.B. It’s possible to drive to the area and go alone.C. One trip we recently took was to Washington DC.D. Some attractions are worth having a tour guide for.E. Chinatown Walking Tours are a tour-guided must-see.F. That allows you to take your time and go at your own pace.G. The tour guides know what we have never found out on our own.第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 30 分)★第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I was then in my early twenties.

It’s Pi Day, a holidayhonoring one of math’s most famous constants(常量): pi.The number pi, or , is equal to the circumference(圆周长)of a circle 57 (divide)by the circle’sdiameter(直径). That comes out to about 3.14159. This is true for circles of all sizes, from 58 (penny)to pizzas to planets. Pi’s value is often rounded to 3.14. That’s why Pi Day 59 (celebrate)on March 14.It’s also why one Earth-sized planet orbiting another star every 3.14 days is nicknamed “Pi Earth.”But the exact value of pi is 60 (actual)impossible to write out. Last year, a 61 (power)computer calculated pi to record-breaking 62.8 trillion(万亿)figures. And in2005, one 23-year-old used clevermental tricks to recite nearly 68,000 of those figures from memory. No one, though, will ever get to 62 endof pi.Historians aren’t sure when people first 63 (discover)the concept of pi. But it’s been known in someform 64 almost 4,000 years. Ancient Greeks and Babylonians knew estimates of it. The Egyptians mayhave used pi 65 (build)the pyramids. And still today, pi is used in just about all math involving circles.第四部分 写作(共两节,满分 40 分)第一节(满分 15 分)你班“英语角”准备出一期有关“中小学生周末做家务劳动情况”调查的板报,请根据以下表格调查结果为板报写一篇稿件。内容包括:1. 情况介绍;2. 你的评论;3. 你的建议。总体情况 利用周末做家务的中小学生占 91.50%打扫卫生 洗碗 烹调 做农活技能比例85.50% 81.60% 36.80% 22.2%注意:1. 写作词数应为 80 左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________第二节(满分 25 分)阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。What should have been a regular Sunday at the YMCA turned into a day one teenage lifeguard will neverforget!Eighteen-year-old Natalie Lucas has been working as a lifeguard at the YMCA in Longmont, Colorado, for thepast three years.
