Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share with you a PE class we had indoors last Wednesday.
Due to the bad weather, our usual outdoor PE activities were transformed into a lively indoor sports session. We started with a game of “Simon Says”, which requires attention and quick reaction. We really enjoyed it. Then came a dance workout, where we learned a few simple dance moves to upbeat music.
Throughout the class, I couldn’t help but appreciate the ingenuity of our teacher in turning a potentially dull indoor session into something enjoyable, impressive and memorable. I hope you’re also having fun and staying active in your daily routine.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节 （满分25分）
Last Friday, a storm was getting close when school was out. Of course I was scared, yet I had this strong sense of “I have to walk home”. So I made a dash for my house. However, fate seemed determined to test my resolve. The rain was absolutely pouring down. What should have been a twelve-minute walk took about thirty, each minute marked by the rhythmic drumming of raindrops against my body with the occasional rumble of thunder in the distance. Finally, I burst through the front door with pride. I called out breathlessly, “Hi, Mom! Hi, Dad! I’m home!”
“How did you get home ” Mom asked, shocked. “I walked,” I replied proudly. “Why not call home for emergencies ” Her voice was filled with worry. She was drying me off when Dad approached. “Well done, that’s my boy!” he patted me kindly, adding “Storms make trees take deeper roots.” I gave a nod and said, “I see.” On Saturday he took me out, treating me to a special day. We watched two movies together. That noon, he also surprised me with a large pepperoni pizza, my favourite. It was the most delicious food that I had ever had.

M: Do you know Robert Frost
W: Yes, I love his poem The Road Not Taken. It’s so beautiful. If you’d like to learn more, I have a copy of the collection of his poems and you can borrow it. (1)
M: Great! I’m about to write an article about him.
Text 2
M: I saw you volunteering with your friends in the community recently. I remember you’re not good at socializing. So why
W: Well, I enjoy helping the elderly and offering support to the food drives. It has strengthened my connection with the community and made me a more caring person. (2)
Text 3
M: You’ve seemed a lot calmer recently, Helen. Have you changed your daily schedule or started playing music
W: Neither. I took up a new hobby these days. I enjoy painting in the garden and it makes me relaxed. (3)
Text 4
M: How was your weekend, Amy
W: It was really busy! My aunt and uncle were visiting and we had a big family meal. (4) What about you
M: I just read some books at home because of the bad weather. I was planning to hang out with my friends.
Text 5
M: Have you done the history project, Sarah
W: Yes, I finished it yesterday. Who knew the 12th century could be so interesting
M: Well, I’m a bit behind on it. I didn’t find it as exciting as you did. And I need some extra help as well.(5)
Text 6（第6题为推断题）
W: Excuse me, I accidentally dropped some coffee on my dress. Do you think you can manage it
M: Let me see... Yes, it’s not a big problem.
W: You’re a great help, I must say! It’s a gift from my mother and I’m going to a huge birthday party wearing it the day after tomorrow. When can I collect it
M: Well, today is too late, and I intend to head out for dinner with my friends in a few minutes. (7) So could you come back tomorrow to pick it up
W: Sure. Thanks a lot.
Text 7（第8题为推断题）
M: So, Claire, you’ve been using our new language learning app for a month now. (9) What do you think
W: It’s fine, but there’s definitely room for improvement.
M: Like what
W: For example, there is no night mode. I do a lot of learning in the evening, so I’d prefer not to be
staring at a bright white screen for hours.
M: We’re working on it now, and it can be solved shortly. Anything else
W: Yes! Well, some of the voices sound a little bit robotic and the pronunciation is not that correct and clear. (9) I’d suggest finding professionals to do the recording.
M: I’ll consider that. Thank you. Your feedback is really helpful.
Text 8（第10题为推断题）
M: Hey, Kate. (11)(12)(13) You’re down the whole day. Is something wrong (11)
W: Melissa and I had a fight yesterday. (11) She’s not saying a word to me now.
M: What happened
W: She’s angry because I applied to a different university from her.
M: What do you mean
W: She wants to study computing at Oxford. I prefer fashion, so I chose the University of the Arts in London. (12) She got mad at me for not going to the same university.
M: It’s natural that friends go on different paths after high school. You can still keep in touch with one another.
W: That’s what I said to her, but she just ignored me.
M: Dear, just give her a couple of days to calm down. I’m sure she’ll soon figure it out. (13)
W: I hope so. I don’t want to lose her as a good friend.
Text 9（第14题为总结题）
M: Today on the show, we’ll be talking about something about the universe and its elements. And we’re honored to have Dr. Jane Scope with us. (15)
W: Thanks for having me. (15)
M: I know you’ve written a book about the universe and dark matter. Could you explain that to our viewers
W: Well, no one really knows what dark matter is. It’s called so because we think it is a type of matter that doesn’t react to light. (16)
M: So how do we know it exists
W: It’s just a theory at the moment, but there’s strong evidence for it.
M: What’s that
W: In the universe, we can see how planets and stars act and influence each other, but sometimes they don’t react how we believe they should. That means something else is affecting their actions.
M: So how much of the universe is dark matter
W: Well, the current popular model suggests the universe is made up of about 5% matter, 26% dark matter, and the rest is what we term dark energy. (17)

Hello, everyone. Thank you for coming. On behalf of the town office, I’m here to share some tips on what to do if your area is hit by a flood.(18) First, always stay informed.(19) Listen to the news or weather reports to find out if a flood is likely to happen. If there’s a flood warning, take it seriously and follow any instructions given by us local leaders. Next, make sure you have an emergency bag ready. This should include things like water, food, batteries, and medicine. Keep this in a place where you can get it quickly. If your home is flooded and you need to leave, do so immediately. And I’ d like to remind you that you should never drive through flooded roads. (20) Just six inches of water can knock you down, and one foot of water can sweep away a car. If you can’t leave, move to the highest floor and wait for help. Lastly, stay calm and help others if you can. Thank you, and stay safe!济宁市实验中学2022级高三上学期12月月考

You can visit the exhibition near Kids Block, Friday-Sunday at the festival.
YOUNG COLLECTORS GALLERY
Each year, our artists have the option to donate a piece to the gallery, offering children the chance to purchase and bring home their very own piece. We encourage young collectors to shop on their own, learning freedom in what they like. Volunteers will be in place to assist children. The Young Collectors section will be open on Saturday and Sunday of the festival.

Last year, my husband and I decided to make our 12-storey building more of a community. We live in a small rented apartment in Park Merced, a large housing development. I would call us lower-middle-class. A lot of nurses, bus drivers, and tradesmen live here, many of them 1st or 2nd generation immigrants (移民).
We’re all renters. Renters come and go and tend not to see the buildings they live in as their home. But it can be done. We started with a monthly two-hour social in the building lobby (前厅) on the second Fridays of each month. Some people came, between 15-30 each time. The events lasted two hours, but there wasn’t much to do besides talking, eating snacks and drinking juice. The socials were nice, but most residents gave them a miss.
Then one day I was on the nearby campus of San Francisco State University. A young man from a social club for students had a big sign about “Building Community”. I asked him, “How do you do that ” He said they tried to get people to share something about themselves with at least one other person. That made a lot of sense to me.
I bought a large world map. At the social, I taped it on the lobby walls with signs that said “Where We’re From. Put a green sticker where you were born and yellow stickers where your grandparents were born.” People put up their stickers and looked where other people came from. We left the map up overnight, and the next day, Saturday, more people played. I planned to leave the map and stickers up for a month or more. They certainly made the lobby more interesting than the housing project look it usually has.
I see that there will be challenges, but I also know that a strong community will help us live good lives. I have the time and energy to do this work.
24.What trouble did the author have building a community

B．She lacked enough money.

C．Admit experienced locals. D．Ask some students for support.
27.Which of the following best describes the author
A．Responsible and strict. B．Demanding and ambitious.
C．Insightful and determined. D．Knowledgeable and modest.

To Karanth, everyone in every part of the world is born with a fundamental connection to nature. Growing up in Karnataka, she began accompanying her father into the wild at just two years old. But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals.
In 2017, a conversation with her friend Gabby shifted her mindset towards education. Within half a year, Karanth and Gabby had the first version of “Wild Shaale” on their hands. A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning.
While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have electricity — forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything.”
Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions and hopefully, behaviors. “It comes down to the same things: we need food; we need water; we need space. Then they start to understand why situations of conflict arise,” Karanth says. “But then how do you convince them not to get angry, not to act in a way that leads to harm That’s something we’re trying to work on. It’s not easy.”
28. What problem might Karanth’s hometown have faced
A. Loss of wildlife habitats.
B. Human-wildlife conflict.
C. Overpopulation of elephants.
D. Disregard for wildlife balance.
29. Why did Karanth launch the program Wild Shaale
A. To help students identify animals.
B. To fill a gap in local education.
C. To change how students perceive wildlife.
D. To publicize wildlife diversity.
30. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The support to the plan.
B. The schools’ conditions.
C. The curriculum arrangement.
D. The barrier to the program.
31. What is Karanth trying to achieve in the program
A. A shift in humans’ attitudes and behavior.
B. A breakthrough in environmental studies.
C. Appropriate ways to end local conflicts.
D. Approaches to changing animals’ behavior.
D
There’s so much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and protecting forests won’t solve the problem. When plants and trees die, the carbon they’ve stored gets released again. Moreover, the CO2 in the atmosphere is much more dilute than in, for example, waste gas from a power station or a steel plant. Capturing CO2 from the air is the most expensive application of carbon capture.
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is one type of technological carbon removal, which obtains CO2 directly from the atmosphere at any location, unlike carbon capture which is generally carried out at the point of emissions. The CO2 can be permanently stored in deep geological formations or used for a variety of applications.
Graphyte is a US company working on DA C．The company claims its carbon capture method is cheap, mainly because it lets plants do the work. The company collects unwanted wood products from farmers and furniture companies. It dries this “biomass” completely so that it can’t break down. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants into small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep underground.
Graphyte says its process doesn’t use much energy and can work anywhere. The plant and tree material the process uses would release carbon if it wasn’t treated. And the cost is less than$ 100 to capture a ton of CO2. The company is building a factory, but it’s not running yet.
Not everyone is excited about this carbon removal. Some people worry that it will take too long for DAC technology to become powerful enough to make a difference. Others worry that focusing on removing carbon could take attention away from more important climate actions, like switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. But experts say the decision isn’t to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air.
32.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A．Trees can purify the air in the sky.
B．Plants release more carbon dioxide.
C．CO2 emission reduction is urgently needed.
D．Removing carbon from air is challenging.
33.What does the underlined word “dilute” in Paragraph 1 mean
A．Beneficial. B．Harmful. C．Thin. D．Concentrated.
34.What can we know about Graphyte’s DAC project
A．Its cost is relatively low.
B．It is in good operation now.
C．Its working condition is demanding.
D．It turns carbon into building materials.
35.What is the experts’ opinion about DAC technology
A．It will make a great difference soon.
B．It can work together with other climate measures.
C．It will result in more environmental concerns.
D．It can take the replace of renewable energy in time.

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。
When I was an eleven-year-old boy finishing my last year of elementary school, my mom got a new job and we would need to move. It meant moving away from my friends and going to a completely different middle school than the one I thought I’d be going to.
In August, my parents and I got to take a tour of the school. That was when we learned that there weren’t any buses that passed our new neighbourhood. It was actually close to the school, so that meant I would be walking to and from school every day. At the time, both of my parents worked five days a week, so they found a babysitter (保姆) to be there when my two-year-old brother and I got home and watch us until my parents returned home.
The school year started, and in early September, we got a massive heatwave. The middle school was an old building and most of it was not air-conditioned. At the end of those days, I was tired and not in any mood to walk an additional twenty minutes in the heat, so I used snack money to call the babysitter. The babysitter, thinking he should not let me suffer in the heat, came to pick me up.
