Writer Andrew Leland started losing his sight 20 years ago, when he was in high school, as a result of a progressive eye disease called retinitis pigmentosa(色素性视网膜炎). His first experience of loss of sight happened temporarily at night, in which he was confused that everyone else seemed to see in the dark so much better than he did. Over the years, his disease has progressed gradually. He's now legally blind, although he still has a narrow field of vision, which allows him to see about 6% of what a fully sighted person sees.
Leland analogized his vision to the view you might get by looking through a toilet paper tube or a keyhole. He said, “Imagine having that toilet paper tube tied to your head and trying to walk down
the street; there's a whole bunch of things you don't see but that you really ought to, like dogs.”
In his new book, The Country of the Blind, Leland writes about losing his vision and preparing for blindness, how his condition impacts his identity, how the world sees him and his marriage, and something valuable he has learned.
He said he was not going to try to tell people that having vision was not an unbelievably useful thing for a human being for many reasons. When talking about the experience of being alive and being conscious, he referred to James Joyce —Joyce believed that he was only losing one world among many, and that vision was only a tiny part of experiences when he was going blind.
He thought if you looked at the things that blind people were capable of imagining, like John Milton writing Paradise Lost as a blind person, there was this unbelievable richness in humans’ consciousness that vision had nothing to do with. Other realms (领域) such as the mental and emotional realms were all so rich that they could also help unfold things on earth before you.
24. What do we know about Leland
A. He went totally blind in high school.
B. He was born with a narrow field of vision.
C. He experienced night blindness at first.
D. He was aware of his condition throughout.
25. Which is closest in meaning to “analogized” underlined in paragraph 2
A. Connected. B. Compared. C. Reduced. D. Exposed.
26. Why is James Joyce mentioned
A. To show the inconvenience of blindness. B. To stress the value of good vision.
C. To state his considerable influence. D. To help explain an opinion.
27. What message is conveyed in the last paragraph
A. Vision is not the only window in the world.
B. The blind have more vivid imagination.
C. Things are not set in concrete.
D. Practice is the best teacher.

Scientists have observed a planet being swallowed(吞噬) by its host star for the first time. They believe this could be a pre view of what could one day happen to Earth — but don't worry, that won't be for about another five billion years.
The US astronomers said that when the sun finally does swallow Earth, it will cause only a “tiny change” compared to the cosmic(宇宙的) explosion they just witnessed. Most planets are believed
to meet their end when their host star runs out of energy, turning into a red giant that massively expands, destroying anything unlucky enough to be in its path.
Astronomers had previously seen the before-and-after effects of this process, but had never caught a planet in the act of being consumed. Lead researcher Kishalay De said the accidental discovery unfolded like a “detective story”.
“It all started about three years ago when I was looking at data from the Zwicky Transient Facility survey, which took images of the sky every night, ”Dr. De said.
He came across a star that had suddenly increased in brightness by more than 100 times over a 10-day period. The star is in the Milky Way galaxy(银河系), around 12,000 light years from Earth near the Aquila constellation(天鹰座). Dr. De had been searching for binary star(双星) systems, in which the larger star takes bites out of its companion, creating incredibly bright explosions called outbursts. But data showed that this outburst was surrounded by cold gas, suggesting it was not a binary star system.
And NASA's infra-red space telescope NEOWISE showed that dust had started to shoot out of the area months before the outburst. More puzzling still was that the outburst produced around 1,000 times less energy than previously observed mergers(合并) between stars.
28. What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. A prediction made by US astronomers about Earth.
B. The harm the cosmic explosion may bring.
C. Practice is the best teacher.
D. Harmony between the Earth and the Sun is of great importance.
29. What can be learned from what Kishalay De said
A. His efforts paid off at last. B. He loves detective stories.
C. The survey made him suffer. D. He took pride in his discovery.
30. What is the feature of the star newly found by Dr. De
A. It causes explosions constantly. B. It has the strongest brightness.
C. It can swallow other host stars. D. It is near the Aquila constellation.
31. In which section of a website can you read the text
A. Literature. B.8cience.
C. Documentary. D. Education.
D
Since the Endangered Species Act (ESA) was passed in 1973, it has helped hundreds of species avoid extinction in the United States. The strong conservation policy has been used as a model in
other countries. But it's not as successful as it could be, a new study finds.
Researchers have discovered most species are not being protected until their numbers have become so low that their chance of recovery is slim.
“The ESA is an incredibly powerful, ambitious law for protecting our endangered wildlife. Yet, for decades, the agency primarily responsible for operating the ESA — the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)——has been starved of resources,” lead author Erich Eberhard says.
“As a result, we are very slow to give species the protection that they deserve. We typically wait until species are extremely rare and thus at extreme risk of extinction, and then, when a species is finally listed, the USFWS is straining(竭力使用) its resources to try to recover it.”
In 1993, a study found that few species received protection under the ESA until their populations became very small. For the new study, researchers repeated the methods used in the earlier research to see whether protections have become better since the problem was first noted. They also looked at trends in “wait times”—— the amount of time between when a species is identified as potentially needing protection and when it actually receives protection under the ESA.
“Our analysis suggests that, in the nearly 30 years since attention was first brought to this problem, we have not become more active in protecting endangered species,” says Eberhard.
The researchers found that the population sizes of species when they first became protected under the ESA are not statistically different from those in the 1993 study. They also discovered that there are long wait times between when a species is identified as likely needing protection and when they actually receive them.
“I can say that our study paints the current state of the ESA as a bit of cautionary(告诫的)tale for the strong conservation policy,” says Eberhard.
32. What problem does the USFWS have protecting endangered species
A. It takes ineffective measures. B. It can't get timely information.
C. It is lacking in resources. D. It is an irresponsible organization.
33. What is the purpose of the new study
A. To try out new ways to protect endangered species.
B. To see if endangered species have been better protected.
C. To check the time needed to save endangered species.
D. To find out the exact number of endangered species.
34. How can the study help with animal conservation
A. It pointed out the direction for the USFWS to act on.
B. It found out many more endangered species.
C. It proved the role of the public in conservation.
D. It showed some effective ways to protect animals.
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The USFWS Needs Stronger Laws
B. The ESA Has Achieved Great Success
C. Endangered Species Act Isn't Working Well
D. New Conservation Laws Are on the Way.

A great skill to have is the ability to solve problems effectively, specifically interpersonal and behavioral problems. In order to achieve this, you need to follow a few key requirements.36
First, you should understand “why” the problem exists. 37 If you know something about why the problem exists, you'll have a better time to resolve the problem. Let's take the example of a child who doesn't want to come to school. Before you can reach a solution, it is important to find out why the child doesn't want to come to school.
Once you have clearly identified the problem, you need to understand what you have control over and what don’t. 38 You may not control whether a child comes to school, but you are able to deal with the barrier to the child not wanting to attend school.
Don't jump to conclusions. Once you have all of your information, analyze it carefully and look at it from various viewpoints. Be as objective as possible and don't be quick to judge. 39 This is a time for you to use your critical thinking skills.
40 Have you weighed the pro s and cons(事物的利与弊) of your options Are there any limitations our options Are there any options better than others and why Are there advantages and disadvantages you need to take into consideration
A. Your efforts must be within the areas where you are in the driver's seat.
B. Now determine your options for solutions.
C. Read on to find how to become a more effective problem solver.
D. Remain judgment-free as much as possible.
E. The strategies in problem-solving are good lifelong skills to have.

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。
In a small community located at a suburb of Exeter, a disappointing issue had been troubling the neighborhood for years. The once pleasant surroundings were ruined by piles of waste that seemed to increase greatly in amount with each passing day. Residents were growing tired of the worsening environment, leading many to leave their homes in search of cleaner neighborhoods. It was in this terrible situation that two young students, Emma and Mia, decided to take matters into their own hands.
Emma and Mia were classmates and best friends from Phillips Exeter Academy, both passionate about environmental preservation and deeply concerned about the pollution crisis their community was facing. Witnessing more and more neighbors' leaving, they knew they couldn't stand by any longer. Determined to bring about a change, they undertook a mission that would soon catch the attention of the entire community.
Their journey began with thorough research and planning. The two girls searched carefully on the Internet for information on environmental initiatives(计划; 措施) and connected with local environmentalists. They organized meetings with residents to understand the issues at hand, collecting data on the types of waste, the sources, and the areas most affected. Armed with this knowledge, Emma and Mia worked out a comprehensive plan and announced it to ask for opinions from the residents. Surprisingly it was strongly supported.
Their strategy was twofold. First, they started a waste classification and recycling program. They distributed recycling bins (回收箱) to every household and taught the community about the importance of responsible waste management. Soon, the streets began to show signs of improvement as the volume of garbage inappropriately thrown away decreased gradually.
The second part of their plan was more ambitious. Emma and Mia gathered volunteers from their school and the neighborhood to take part in a massive clean-up campaign. Armed with gloves and trash (垃圾) bags, they began systematically clearing the waste from the streets, parks, and even the local bodies of water. Their firm commitment and hard work inspired others to join the cause.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Half a year later, the changes were significant.
Emma and Mia received recognition and honors for their work.大庆四中2023～2024学年第二学期高二年级第三次检测

参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
Half a year later, the changes were significant. Gradually, the neighborhood regained its charm. The air grew cleaner, many kinds of birds were increasingly making their nests here again and the sound of laughter returned as children played in the park once littered with waste. Emma and Mia’s great efforts had not only cleaned up the environment but also promoted the community spirit. News of the remarkable change quickly spread beyond the community. Those who had left the community in earlier years began to return.
Paragraph 2:
Emma and Mia received recognition and honors for their work. The local community was full of praise for their efforts and gave them gift packs in praise of what they had done. Besides, awards from environmental organizations and praise from government officials poured in. But they knew that their work was far from finished. They would use their newfound fame to advocate for sustainable practices, hosting workshops and seminars on environmental protection, inspire the community to continue their eco-friendly efforts and encourage local businesses to adopt green initiatives to make their neighborhood more enjoyable.

M: Didn’t people use to smoke and salt their foods to keep them longer

M: You mean keeping foods in metal cans like those we have now
W: Yes, but that wasn’t invented until about 1810. In fact, the first commercial canning didn’t hit the market until about 100 years later.
M: That’s a long amount of time in between. Why do you think it took people that long to accept the process
W: I read that it was because the method wasn’t perfect enough at first. It still had many problems that needed to be worked out. Particularly, if the can wasn’t closed correctly, it could cause serious illnesses.

W: Hello, everybody. We know that animal documentaries (纪录片) are always fun to watch. Lions hunt smaller animals. Monkeys play with each other. But do you know how people film these videos Usually, a camera team goes into the wild. They use special cameras to film. However, the BBC wanted to get much closer. So they made “animal spies”! The animal spies are robots. They have cameras in their eyes. But they look and move like real animals. These spies worked in the wild. They tried to be part of real animal groups. The BBC used them to make a documentary called Spy in the Wild. To finish the documentary, the camera team made 34 robot animals. They made monkeys, birds and even worms. It could take about 40 days to 180 days to make one animal spy. And it took the team three years to shoot the documentary. The team traveled 530 kilometers. They went to the Arctic, the Antarctic and many places in between. They filmed more than 8,000 hours of material. Every hour-long episode (剧集) was made from 1,250 hours of material. To make good spies, the camera team needed to learn the living habits of real animals. Many funny things happened between the spies and the animals. Find out more by watching the documentary yourself.
