一、阅读理解
As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification (沙漠化). “Within10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable (可持续的) crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers (肥料) rather than chemicals.
In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”
By September2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant l million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.
1．How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her
A. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They made her decide to leave the country.
D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
2．What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
3．Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia
A. To create job opportunities for young people.
B. To promote the protection of their farmland.
C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
D. To help the children obtain a basic education.
4．Which of the following can be the best title to the text
A. Saving Water in Africa B. Fighting Poverty in North Africa
C. Holding back the Sahara D. Planting Trees in Tunisia
We go through life assuming we’re in charge of our own minds — until temptation (诱惑) strikes. Few things better illustrate how little control we really have. You can know exactly what you should do (decline the second slice of cake or the third cocktail), but that hardly seems to matter when the urge arises. More self-discipline is rarely the answer, though. Instead, if you can understand what’s going on inside your head when temptation comes, you’ll be far better placed to make a healthier choice.
Sometimes, you need to push yourself, the idea behind which, in psychology, is to make the better choice the easier choice. (School pupils eat more healthily, it’s been shown, when the salads are within easier reach than the chips.) So, instead of relying on willpower, stop keeping ice creams in your freezer! Use StayFocused or similar apps to block distracting websites. Change your environment, and temptation will be a non-issue.
For every person, behind every bad habit, there's a reasonable desire: some people eat or drink too much because they're lonely, or smoke to get a break from a busy schedule. Once you’ve uncovered this underlying need, find a different way to meet it: call a friend; take a coffee break instead of a cigarette break. There’s nothing wrong with the need — only with the way you’re currently meeting it.
It’s a strange truth that we’ll break all sorts of promises to ourselves — yet most of us would never fail to show up at a prearranged meeting with a friend. Involve others in your temptation-resistance efforts, whether it's asking someone to check in weekly to see if you’re sticking to your plan, or never going shopping alone if you’re subject to impulse purchases. Best of all, launch a joint plan, in which two of you decide to give up a bad habit. That turns a challenge into a fun game.
5．What does “that” mean in paragraph 1
A. Temptation. B. Self-awareness.
C. Choice. D. Self-motivation.
6．Which should be a good choice if you feel worn out from a packed timetable
A. Exercise strong willpower over it.
B. Keep ice creams within easy reach.
C. Use StayFocused to refresh yourself.
D. Chat with a friend over a cup of coffee.
7．What does the author suggest you do according to paragraph 4
A. Seek partners’ support. B. Leave challenges behind.
C. Keep your promises. D. Say no to playing games.
8．What is the text mainly about
A. What causes temptation. B. How to keep temptation at bay.
C. Why urges set in. D. How to keep life under control.
Volunteering is one of the major wealth of any American city or town. People get together to help others less fortunate than themselves, or victims of a natural or man-made disaster. Since the start of our country, this has been one of the noticeable features of our society.
Beginning in the Colonial Period and continuing down to today, our country’s history is full of examples of people helping each other. Requiring high school students to take part in voluntary community service projects introduces them to this important part of our society. And while many students complain about this program at first, a large number of them find great individual satisfaction when they look back at the things they achieved.
Our son, who graduated in 2005, found that he enjoyed the time he spent with primary school students helping them with their reading. In some ways, he became a hero to the young boys and girls he was spending time with, simply because he was a high school student and took the time to get to know them. By the end of his first year in the program he was looking forward to the next school year and a new group of kids. It was particularly satisfying when a child he had helped saw him some place in the community and remembered him.
Having high school students take part in required community service activities helps give them an important sense of belonging to the adult world. It also gives them first-hand experience in activities and situations they might not otherwise experience. And it shows them that they can make a valuable contribution towards the society with just a little effort and a few hours of their time.
9．The underlined “complain about”in Paragraph 2 has the same meaning as _____.
A．Think highly of B．Jump at
C．Look forward to D．Think little of
10．What do we know about the author’s son
A．He has been a volunteer for about one year.
B．He won much respect for his voluntary work.
C．He hoped the children he helped would remember him.
D．He felt pleased when he was recognized by other volunteers.
11．In paragraph 4, the author mainly discusses_____.
A．The benefits of required volunteering
B．The importance of first-hand experience
C．The requirements for being a volunteer
D．The responsibility of contributing to society
Four Best Books for Teens
Just as You Are
In this book, psychologist Michelle Skeen and her daughter, Kelly Skeen, offer simple tips to help you overcome feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness, stop comparing yourself to others, and be more open and accepting of all aspects of who you are. You’ll also learn how to be more aware of your thoughts and feelings in the moment using powerful mindfulness tools, and build a plan of action for the future based on your values.
Make Your Bed
According to Admiral William H. McRaven, changing the world can begin with one step: making your bed. In this book, Admiral McRaven shares tales from his life, including his time devoted to the military, providing practical advice, wisdom and words of encouragement to readers of all ages.
Shoot Your Shot
It’s written by Vernon Brundage Jr. in the context of basketball and divided into “quarters”, similar to a basketball game. Throughout the book, readers learn life lessons gained and practiced by some of the greatest athletes, including Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Stephen Curry. Shoot Your Shot aims to encourage readers to find success in anything they do in life, whether it’s athletics, academics, the arts, or something in between.
Never Fight Alone
Sometimes, teens just want to be heard by someone who understands, like some one of their own age. Written by Shelomo Solson, Never Fight Alone consists of 51 inspiring interviews with people—from former professional athletes to authors and teen entrepreneurs—who have faced various life problems, like anxiety, depression, and more. These interviewees detail how they overcame life challenges and provide tips for readers to do the same.
12．Which book refers to military life

Wildlife biologist Purnima Devi Barman remembers the first time she ever saw the nest of a greater adjutant stork (秃鹳) in a tree near her grandmother’s home. Her grandmother would tell her stories about birds and animals under the tree. The love for the natural world developed in those years led Barman to devote her life to saving the endangered greater adjutant stork.
Known as the Hargila in Assam, the greater adjutant stork is the second-rarest stork in the world. Unlike pandas or lions, whose attractive appearances help gain widespread support for their protection, these tall, bald, clumsy birds meet with bias in conservation campaigns.
“Hargilas also bear a reputation of bringing bad luck,” says Barman. “What was the point of writing my paper on them if there was no way of actually saving these birds I had to start with changing the misconception.”
Not one to shy away from a challenge, Barman put her PhD on hold and set to work. “I started engaging with the women in the village. In our experience, educating and securing the participation of women ensures that the learning passes on to the next generation,” Barman says.
Today, around 400 women have been trained to work on conserving this rare bird. The group’s activities include awareness-building in schools and plantation drives in which 45,000 trees were planted to support the stork’s future populations.
A key component allowing Barman to successfully integrate conservation efforts into the village cultural life was her idea of building related livelihoods. Weaving (纺织) is a long-standing craft in Assam, so Barman created a self-help group employing women to weave stork patterns on textiles. This innovative idea was highlighted at the UN Champion of the Earth Awards she won in 2022.
Currently the number of greater adjutant nests in Assam’s Kamrup district has grown from 28 in 2010 to more than 250. The once unlucky stork is now a symbol of community pride, its pictures appearing on bags, blankets and celebration decorations.
15． What motivated Barman to save the greater adjutant stork
A. Her interest in observing nests.
B. Her passion for doing research.
C. Her love for nature from childhood.
D. Her grandmother’s encouragement.
16． What does the underlined word “bias” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Prejudice. B. Support.
C. Danger. D. Success.
17． What was a major challenge Barman faced in conserving the greater adjutant stork
A. The stork is common in appearance.
B. The stork was believed to be unlucky.
C. She had not finished her paper for PhD.
D. She lacked experience in wildlife conservation.
18． How did Barman make conservation efforts part of the village cultural life
A. By creating related jobs.
B. By teaching women to weave.
C. By planting trees in the village.
D. By advertising local products.

3．答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段 In 2012，Toumi consolidated her dream to fight the desert.She moved to Tunisia，and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action（2012年，Toumi坚定了与沙漠作战的梦想。她搬到突尼斯，设立了一个名为"AcaciasforAll"的项目，将她的可持续农业理念付诸行动。）以及最后一段Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia's farmland.（ Toumi估计，为了保护突尼斯的农田，大约需要300万棵金合槐。）可知，Toumi设立这个项目是为了更好加强对当地农田的保护。故选B。
4．答案：C
解析：标题判断题。根据文章第二段 Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification"Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off，and in 10 years from now they will be poor wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks."（Toumi亲眼目睹了沙漠化的破坏性影响："10年内，富裕的农民变得更穷了，再过10年，他们将变得更穷，想要阻止撒哈拉沙漠的发展。"）可知，Toumi亲眼目睹了沙漠化的破坏性；再根据第三段Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change she is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops，using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers（肥料） rather than chemicals.（Toumi认识到耕作方式需要改变，她相信，如果农民能够通过种植可持续作物、使用新技术进行水处理并专注于天然产品和肥料而不是化学品来适应这种变化，小面积土地也能带来巨大回报。）可知，Toumi认为可以通过改变耕作方式来适应这种改变；而第四段In 2012，Toumi consolidated her dream to fight the desert.She moved to Tunisia，and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action（2012年，图米坚定了与沙漠作战的梦想。她搬到突尼斯，设立了一个名为"Acacias for All"的项目，将她的可持续农业理念付诸行动。）。因此可以推断，本文主要讲述的是一个小女孩通过可持续农耕来对抗沙漠化。所以Sustainable Farming against Deserts（沙漠可持续农业）作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。
5．答案：B
解析：词句猜测题。根据第一段“You can know exactly what you should do (decline the second slice of cake or the third cocktail), but that hardly seems to matter when the urge arises.”(你可以确切地知道你应该做什么(拒绝第二块蛋糕或第三杯鸡尾酒)，但当冲动出现时，that似乎并不重要。)可知，当冲动出现时，所有的自我意识都不重要了。that指代上文的“自我意识”。故选B项。

9．答案：D
解析：词义猜测题。画线短语所在句为“while”引导的让步状语从句，根据句中“a large number of them find great individual satisfaction when they look back at the things they achieved”（当他们回顾自己所取得的成就时，他们中的许多人都会有极大的个人满足感）可知，这些学生在参加完志愿者活动后，会有极大的满足感，根据语境可推断出，他们起初对志愿者活动是不看好的，画线单词所在句表示的是“虽然许多学生一开始抱怨这个项目”，“Think little of”意为“不重视”，符合学生起初对志愿者活动的态度。故选D项。
10．答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段关键句“In some ways, he became a hero to the young boys and girls he was spending time with, simply because he was a high school student and took the time to get to know them. By the end of his first year in the program he was looking forward to the next school year and a new group of kids.”（在某些方面，他成为了与他共度时光的年轻男孩女孩的英雄，仅仅因为他是一名高中生并愿意花时间去了解他们。在项目的第一年结束时，他期待着下一学年和新的一群孩子见面。）可知，作者的儿子通过志愿者工作成为年轻男孩女孩的英雄，获得了他们的尊重，所以他才期待着下一年的活动。由此可知，作者儿子的志愿工作帮他赢得了很多尊重。故选B项。
11．答案：A
解析：主旨大意题。根据第四段关键句“Having high school students take part in required community service activities helps give them an important sense of belonging to the adult world.”（让高中生参加必要的社区服务活动有助于让他们对成人世界产生重要的归属感。）和“It also gives them first-hand experience in activities and situations they might not otherwise experience.”（它还为他们提供了在其他情况下可能不会经历的活动和情况的第一手经验。）可知，在文章第四段中，作者主要讨论了必要的志愿服务给高中生带来的好处，例如让他们更加了解成人世界和积累生活经验等。故选A项。

16．答案：A
解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段画线单词所在句“Unlike pandas or lions, whose attractive appearances help gain widespread support for their protection, these tall, bald, clumsy birds meet with bias in conservation campaigns.”可知，熊猫或狮子迷人的外表有助于它们获得广泛的支持，与此形成对比的是，这些高大、秃顶、笨拙的鸟类在保护运动中会遇到偏见。由语境可推知，bias表示“偏见”，和prejudice意思相同。故选A。
17．答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段尤其是第一句“Hargilas also bear a reputation of bringing bad luck”可推知，Barman在试图拯救和保护大秃鹳的过程中，遇到的最大障碍就是，人们认为大秃鹳是一种不吉利的鸟类。故选B。
18．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。通读倒数第二段可知，Barman成功地将保护大秃鹳的工作融入村庄文化生活，她成立了一个自助团体，雇佣女性在纺织品上编织鹳图案。故选A。
19．答案：FEDAB
解析：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助我们走出失去朋友的痛苦。
①根据空前内容“Some are with us for decades.(有些已经伴随了我们几十年。）”可知，空前讲述的是有的朋友已 经在我们身边多年。选项F“But not all of them can stand the test of time.(但并不是所有的朋友都能经受住时间的考验。)”延续上文内容，指的是有的朋友会陪伴我们很久，有些朋友却不能经受时间的考验。故选F。
②根据空后内容“In fact，people，on average，lose about half of their friends every seven years.(事实上，人们平 均每七年就会失去一半的朋友。）”可知，人们每七年就会失去一半的朋友。选项E“Losing friends is a regular part of life.(失去朋友是生活中很正常的一部分。)”与下文内容保持一致，指的是失去朋友很正常。故选E。
③根据空后内容“And because they’re never directly addressed，people get to a point where they want to end the friendship before actually addressing the problem.(因为这些问题从来没有被直接解决过，所以人们会在真正解决 问题之前就想结束友谊。)”可知，下文讲述的是因为这些问题没有解决，所以人们想要结束友谊。选项D“Small things can kind of accumulate.(小事情会累积起来。)”中的“small things”正是下文提到的“they”，内容上也与下文 保持一致，指的是小事慢慢堆积成为问题，问题不被解决使人们想要结束友谊。故选D。
④根据空前内容“I lost someone I’m very close to. Of course I’m upset.(我失去了一个很亲近的人。我当然难过。)”可知，选项A“That means I love them deeply.(那意味着我深深地爱着他。)”是上文内容的自然延续。故 选A。
⑤空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文内容“It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully.(重要的是不要因为没有从失去友谊中走出来而责怪自己，也不要对自己刻薄。仅仅因为这样的事情发生了并不意味着会有更多这样的友谊会这样发展。当你开始一段新的友谊时，让自己有一个 新的视角。你不想害怕地进入一段新的关系。)”可知，本段主要讲述的是不要苛责自己。选项B“Be kind to yourself along the way.(—路走来，要善待自己。)”与本段内容相符，指的是善待自己。故选B。
20．答案：GCEBF
解析：①根据下文“From the freedom to explore new horizons to fostering a minimalist mindset, here are some captivating advantages of embracing van life.(从探索新视野的自由到培养极简主义的心态，这是一些拥抱房车生活的迷人优势)”可知，拥有房车的好处不仅仅是可以开着它们去旅行欣赏沿途的风景。G项“The concept of van life offers benefits beyond just a change of scenery.(房车生活的概念提供的好处不仅仅是改变风景)”符合题意，引出下文。故选G。
②根据下文“With minimal monthly expenses, such as parking fees and fuel costs, van dwellers can allocate resources to experiences rather than high rent or house payments. (由于每月的停车费和燃油费等开支很少，住房车的人可以将资源分配到体验上，而不是支付高昂的租金或住房费用)”可知，住房车更划算，可以节省不少开支用于体验。C项“Living in a van can often be more cost-effective.(住在房车里通常更划算)”符合题意，开启下文。故选C。
③空处位于段末，应承接上文。根据上文“You can choose to wake up at dawn over the ocean one day and find yourself in a forested mountainside the next. Living in a van frequently involves being close to the outdoors surrounded by the beauty of nature.(你可以选择在某天的黎明在大海上醒来，第二天发现自己在森林茂密的山腰上。住在一辆房车里，经常可以接近户外，被大自然的美景所包围)”可知，每天在大自然中醒来，被自然的美景所包围，那么大自然便成为了你日常生活的一部分。E项“The natural world becomes an essential part of your daily life(自然世界成为你日常生活中必不可少的一部分)”符合题意，nature和natural是关键词。故选E。
④根据小标题“Minimal Ecological Footprint(最小生态足迹)”推知，空处内容应与环保相关，结合下文“They adopt solar panels and efficient water systems , further minimizing their impact on the environment.(他们采用太阳能电池板和高效的供水系统，进一步减少对环境的影响)”中的they推知，空处提到的应是住房车的人都很环保。B项“Many van lifers tend to go green.(许多在房车里生活的人倾向于环保)”符合题意。故选B。
⑤空处位于段末，应承接上文。根据上文“Through the open road, the beauty of nature, and the friendship of fellow adventurers, van life presents a unique avenue for enriching the human experience. (通过开阔的道路，大自然的美丽，以及冒险者的友谊，房车生活为丰富人类体验提供了一条独特的途径)”推知，空处继续陈述这种生活带来的好处。F项“Better yet, it offers a way to reconnect with the essence of living.(更好的是，它提供了一种与生活本质重新联系的方式)”符合语境。故选F。
21．答案：F; G; D; B; E
解析：①第一段提到社会心理学中的“聚光灯效应”，F 项“It refers to our tendency to overestimate others' attention to us.”（它指的是我们倾向于高估别人对我们的关注）解释了“聚光灯效应”，承接上文，故 F 项正确。
②第二段提到不要让别人阻碍你的成功，G 项“There will be many people who will decide you can't do something.”（会有很多人决定你做不了某些事情）与后文“These people are everywhere”相呼应，故 G 项正确。
③第三段提到我们常对自己说“我做不到”等话，是因为害怕失败而选择稳妥，D 项“A lot of us tend to play it safe because we fear failing.”符合语境，故 D 项正确。
④第四段提到自信不是一蹴而就的，而是逐步学习的，B 项“It is slowly learned in small baby steps.”符合文意，故 B 项正确。

22．答案：to see; which; that; Encouraged; intelligence; have succeeded; plants; definitely; on; better
解析：①考查动词不定式。句意:一种选择就是探索其他星球,看看我们是否能在它们上面居住。由句意可知此处应用动词不定式表目的。
②考查定语从句。设空处无提示词,设空处前面内容意思完整,不缺成分,且设空处作主语(后面谓语为is),由此可知设空处引导非限制性定语从句。先行词为Mars,故应用关系代词 which 引导该从句。注意:不能用 that引导非限制性定语从句。
③考查代词。句意:此外,那里的环境不像其他星球上的那么不利。设空处指代前面的名词environment,故应用代词 that。
④考查过去分词。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词 are planning,所以设空处应用非谓语动词;encourage与句子的主语 space agencies 为逻辑上的被动关系。所以用过去分词作状语。故填 Encouraged。
⑤考查名词。设空处与skill, courage 并列,作require 的宾语,因此用名词形式。intelligent的名词形式是intelligence。
⑥考查时态和主谓一致。设空处为该句的谓语,此处表示“科学家最近已经在一种类似火星的环境里成功地种植了各种植物”。根据前面的时间状语 Lately并结合句意可以判断应用现在完成时,主语是scientists,故填 have succeeded。
⑦考查名词的数。a variety of 意为“各种各样的”,其后应跟可数名词的复数形式。
⑧考查副词。此处表示“毫无疑间,那肯定是向前迈进的一大步”。设空处作状语,应用副词形式。故填definitely。
⑨考在介词。have an influence on意为“对……有影响”。
⑩考在形容词的比较级。此处表示“我们需要更好地保护我们的星球”。根据设空处前面的much并结合句意可以判断此处应该用比较级形式。
23．答案：was announced；a；that/which；stretching；with；southern；remains；written；has undergone；provides
解析：①考查谓语动词。句意:“北京中轴线:展示中国首都理想秩序的建筑群”已被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录，成为中国第59个世界遗产，此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语on July 27可知，此处应为一般过去时，结合句意，announce与主语it之间为被动关系，所以此处使用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数。故填was announced。
②考查冠词。句意:北京中轴线的根源可以追溯到中国传统文化中理想的首都规划范式，它展示了一组建筑群和考古遗址，这些建筑群和考古遗址支配着北京旧城的整体布局。group为可数名词数，所以此处为冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一组”表示泛指，所以使用不定冠词，group的首个音素为辅音。故填a。
③考查定语从句。句意:北京中轴线的根源可以追溯到中国传统文化中理想的首都规划范式，它展示了一组建筑群和考古遗址，这些建筑群和考古遗址支配着北京旧城的整体布局。此处为关系词引导的定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词building complexes and archaeological sites指的是事物，所以此处使用关系代词that或which。故填that/which。
④考查现在分词。句意:这一铭文财产南北延伸7.8公里，穿过北京市中心，由15个部分组成，北端是钟鼓楼，南端是永定门。此处为非谓语动词作状语，stretch与逻辑主语the inscribed property之间为主动关系，所以此处使用现在分词短语作状语。故填Stretching。
⑤考查介词。句意:这一铭文财产南北延伸7.8公里，穿过北京市中心，由15个部分组成，北端是钟鼓楼，南端是永定门。此处为“with+宾语+宾补”结构，其中介词短语作宾语。故填with。
⑥考查形容词。句意:这一铭文财产南北延伸7.8公里，穿过北京市中心，由15个部分组成，北端是钟鼓楼，南端是永定门。此处为形容词作定语修饰end，south的形容词为southern意为“南方的”符合句意。故填southern。
⑦考查名词复数。句意:该建筑群包括皇家宫殿和花园、皇家祭祀建筑、古代城市管理设施和中轴线道路的遗迹。此处为名词作宾语，remain意为“遗迹”为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用名词复数形式。故填remains。
⑧考查过去分词。句意:清华大学国家遗产中心主任吕舟表示，这种城市规划模式可以追溯到公元前221年之前编写的《考工记》，它概述了首都规划的仪式和秩序。此处为非谓语动词作定语修饰“Kao gong ji”，两者之间为被动关系，所以此处使用过去分词形式。故填written。
⑨考查谓语动词。句意:在过去的七个世纪里，它经历了不断的完善，并继续影响着北京的城市发展。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语over the past seven centuries可知，此处应为现在完成时，undergo与主语it之间为主动关系，且主语为第三人称单数。故填has undergone。
⑩考查谓语动词。句意:北京中轴线为中国传统所珍视的“中和”哲学提供了一个特殊的物质证据。此处为谓语动词，结合句意，此处讲述的是客观事实，所以使用一般现在时，主语The Beijing Central Axis为第三人称单数。故填provides。
24．答案：①a②has become③consists④which⑤traditional⑥lifestyles⑦absolutely⑧to integrate⑨but/yet⑩allowing
解析：①冠词。分析句子结构可知,空处和空后的“new way of drinking tea”一起作“Stove-boiled tea”的同位语。结合语境可知,此处表泛指,且new的发音以辅音音素开头,所以空处填a。句意:“围炉煮茶”,一种新的饮茶方式,在中国变得流行。
②动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作谓语。结合时间状语so far可知,时态用现在完成时; ceremony与become之间是主动关系;且主语是第三人称单数,所以空处填has become。
③动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,此处考查谓语动词。此处陈述客观事实,时态用一般现在时;consist of意为“由……组成”,无被动形式;主语the process是第三人称单数,所以空处填consists。
④定语从句的关系词。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是表示物的名词process,关系词在从句中作主语,所以空处填which。
⑤形容词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰空后的名词Hanfu,应用形容词,所以空处填traditional。
⑥名词复数。lifestyle是可数名词,意为“生活方式”。根据空前的other和空后的举例可知,空处应用名词复数,所以空处填lifestyles。
⑦副词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰空后的形容词relaxing,应用副词,所以空处填absolutely。
⑧非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处是非谓语动词短语作后置定语。way后面常用动词不定式作后置定语,所以空处填to integrate。
⑨连词。空前空后都是完整的句子,空处应用连词。结合句意“你可能听说过拿铁咖啡,但是你听说过类似的技艺出现在一杯茶中吗 ”可知,空前空后构成了转折关系,所以空处填but/yet。
⑩非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,,空处在句中作非谓语。此处是非谓语动词短语作状语,表示自然而然的结果。所以空处填allowing。
25．答案：①competitions②an③to clear④which⑤improving⑥bigger⑦cleaned⑧Inspired⑨With⑩rapidly
解析：①考查名词复数。该空所填单词在句中作raced in的宾语，需用compete的名词形式。并且比赛不止一个，故用复数形式。
②考查冠词。该空表示泛指，important是以元音音素开头的单词，因此该空用an。
③考查非谓语动词。“to clear away rubbish”是不定式短语作目的状语。
④考查非限制性定语从句的关系词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰event，指物，且关系词在从句中作主语，故用关系代词which。
⑤考查非谓语动词。spend time doing sth.表示“某人花时间做某事”。
⑥考查形容词比较级。这里指的是活动规模一年比一年大，故用比较级。
⑦考查时态。“In 2002”是具体的过去时间状语，谓语动词用一般过去时。
⑧考查非谓语动词。“Inspired by the success of his project”是过去分词短语作状语，分词动作与其逻辑主语Kierman之间是动宾关系。
⑨考查固定搭配。with the help of ...表示“在……的帮助下”。
⑩考查词性转换。该空所填单词在句中修饰谓语动词，需用rapid的副词形式。

Dear friends,
Good morning, everyone. I am so honored to give a speech titled “Say No to Fast Food”(过去分词短语作后置定语).
As we know, fast food does great harm to(对……有极大的危害) our health. Not only does it lack nutrition that our body needs (部分倒装句,其中that引导定语从句), it can also cause obesity and related diseases, as fast food is generally high in sugar, salt, fat and calories(原因状语从句).
