(2024·山东高二上联考)
Carol-Anne O’Callaghan，a former teacher from Great Missenden，Buckinghamshire，has fought hard to protect ancient oaks near her home，which she says are home to rare bats.
In February 2021，O’Callaghan was walking her dogs when she spotted yellow dots stuck on some of the 99 oak trees in a narrow country lane close to her home.The dots indicated trees marked for destruction.After she learned the trees would be felled as part of the HS2 high-speed railway works，she called the HS2 helpline and was told there was nothing that could be done as an over-road would be built.She gets choked up remembering the moment she realized many of them were to be cut down.
O’Callaghan loves that ancient line of oaks.They were planted in the 19th century.“My family and I would picnic under them，” she says，“climb them，have rope swings on them.The trees are amazing and beautiful and mean so much to us.” One of the last photos of her mother，taken shortly before she died，was of her sitting in a swing in their branches.
She noticed that on the other side of the lane，to the north，there were no ancient oaks.So she began campaigning to save the trees.With the help of her daughter，Blaize，she started a petition(请愿书)，which went on to get nearly 43,000 signatures.“I saw someone passionate about giving a voice to those who don’t have one，someone not afraid of asking questions and calling out large，daunting businesses for doing the wrong thing，” says her neighbour Victoria.
Buckinghamshire Council has got involved，and the felling is paused.A final decision has yet to be made about the proposed over-road.“We’re optimistic that they’ll hear our argument and take the ecology of the lane into account，” says O’Callaghan.“We want them to put in a green crossing in the gaps between trees，for the bats，and we’d like the place to become a conservation area.For the trees and the bats—this is what we are fighting for！”
语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了白金汉郡的Carol Anne O’Callaghan为保护家附近的古橡树和橡树上的稀有蝙蝠而努力奔走，最终白金汉郡议会涉入此事，砍伐行动被暂停了。
24．What did the yellow dots on the oaks indicate
A．These oaks would be cut down.
B．The narrow lane would be widened.
C．Rare bats would get protected.
D．A railway station would be built.
答案　A
解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The dots indicated trees marked for destruction.After she learned the trees would be felled...”可知，橡树上的黄色圆点表示这些橡树将被砍伐。故选A。
25．Why does O’Callaghan have deep feelings for the oaks
A．Due to the oaks’ long history.
B．Due to the natural beauty.
C．Due to the precious memories.
D．Due to the diverse wildlife.
答案　C

(2024·湖北荆州高二上期末)
More than 3/4 of the Southeast Asia population is agriculture-based.Twice as much fish is consumed in this area compared to other forms of animal protein，reflecting the long coastlines and river environments of Southeast Asia.The staple food(主粮) throughout the area is rice，which has been planted for thousands of years.Rice serves as the basic staple food for more than half of the world’s population today.
In Asia，there are different styles of eating food.In India and the Middle East，as well as Southeast Asia，people eat food with their hands.It is a very direct way to experience the texture(口感) of the food，and people normally wash their hands before and after each meal.Normally，only the right hand is used，so that one knows to keep it especially clean.Generally，the foods to be eaten are placed on plates in the center of the mat or table，and people take food in small portions(一份) as they eat.
The exception to this pattern is Vietnam，where the influence of China was much stronger than anywhere else in Southeast Asia.Here，each person has chopsticks，and food is served and divided among people onto individual plates or into individual bowls.A similar pattern is found in other Asian countries where Chinese influence was especially strong，e.g.Japan，Korea and so on.
The influence of Western cultures is found not only in the use of tables and chairs in many modern Southeast Asian households，but also in the use of spoons and forks.Knives are not necessary，since meat and vegetables are cut into smaller portions before cooking or serving.A large spoon is held in the right hand，while the left hand is used to shovel food into the spoon.
28．What can be known from the first two paragraphs
A．Most of the Asians live in the cities.
B．Most people eat food with their hands throughout Asia.
C．Rice serves as the non-staple food in most areas in Southeast.
D．Southeast Asians eat more fish than other forms of animal protein.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中“Twice as much fish is consumed in this area compared to other forms of animal protein，reflecting the long coastlines and river environments of Southeast Asia.”可知，相对于其他形式的动物蛋白质，东南亚人吃更多的鱼。故选D。
29．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The food.
B．The right hand.
C．The meal.
D．The texture of the food.
答案　B
解析　代词指代题。根据画线词前面的内容“Normally，only the right hand is used”可知，通常情况下，只使用右手，故保持右手是干净的。故画线词指代前文的“右手”。故选B。
30．In what aspect is Vietnam an exception
A．People there eat with their hands.
B．People take food from plates with chopsticks.
C．Food is served and shared into a large plate or bowl.
D．Japanese influence is seen more than Chinese influence.
答案　B
解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Here，each person has chopsticks，and food is served and divided among people onto individual plates or into individual bowls.”可知，越南与其他亚洲国家不同的是用餐使用筷子而不是手。故选B。
31．What is mainly discussed in the last paragraph
A．Changes caused by Western cultures.
B．The adoption of metal eating tools.
C．The introduction of seating furniture.
D．Food culture in Western countries.
答案　A
解析　段落大意题。根据最后一段中“The influence of Western cultures is found not only in the use of tables and chairs in many modern Southeast Asian households，but also in the use of spoons and forks.”可知，最后一段介绍的是西方文化对东南亚饮食文化带来的影响，这种影响不仅体现在许多现代东南亚家庭对桌椅的使用上，也体现在对勺子和叉子的使用上。故选A。
D
A large amount of great scientific discoveries is not actually discovered but borrowed.That was the case when scientists discovered proteins from an unlikely lender：green algae(绿藻)，whose cells are modified with proteins that can sense light.
The light-sensing protein promised the power to control neurons(神经元) by providing a way to turn them on and off.Such ability，first noticed in 2002，quickly caught the attention of brain scientists：Nerve cells which were genetically engineered to produce such proteins become light-controlled.A flash of light could cause a quiet neuron to send signals or force an active neuron to fall silent.“This is the light sensor that we needed，” says Zhuo-Hua Pan，a scientist searching for a way to control vision cells in mice’s eyes.The method is now called optogenetics(光遗传学)．
In Pan’s lab，light-responsive proteins restored vision in mice with damaged eyesight，a finding that has now led to a medical test on people.Optogenetics’ promise wasn’t clear in early days，as scientists were first learning how to use these proteins in neurons.“At that time，no one expected that this optogenetic work would have such a huge impact，” Pan says.
The algae’s light sensors have been adopted for use in countless brain research fields.Talia，another scientist，uses optogenetics to study connections between cells in the mouse brain.The method allows her to comb the relationships between cells that produce and respond to dopamine(多巴胺)，which might help uncover details about motivation and learning.
So far，optogenetics research has taken place mostly in mice.But findings into more complex brains like human brain may soon be confirmed.“We are definitely on the tip of uncovering some fascinating principles of the human brain，such as how the brain transforms signals from the eyes into perceptions，” says Yasmine of Columbia University.
No matter what happens next in this swiftly moving field，one thing is certain：Brain scientists will be forever in the algae’s debt.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了科学家们如何从绿藻中发现能感知光的蛋白质，并利用这些蛋白质进行神经元的控制。
32．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A．The origin of neurons.
B．The varieties of neurons.
C．The discovery of green algae.
D．The inspiration from green algae.
答案　D
解析　段落大意题。根据第二段“The light-sensing protein promised the power to control neurons(神经元) by providing a way to turn them on and off...A flash of light could cause a quiet neuron to send signals or force an active neuron to fall silent.‘This is the light sensor that we needed，’says Zhuo-Hua Pan，a scientist searching for a way to control vision cells in mice’s eyes.The method is now called optogenetics(光遗传学)．”可知，第二段主要讲来自绿藻的启发。故选D。
33．What can we learn from Pan’s research
A．The findings are used to cure brain diseases.
B．Relationships between cells have been found.
C．Impaired eyesight is likely to be restored.
D．The light-sensing protein is the key to the brain.
答案　C
解析　推理判断题。根据第三段中“In Pan’s lab，light-responsive proteins restored vision in mice with damaged eyesight，a finding that has now led to a medical test on people.”可知，根据Pan的研究，受损的视力有可能得到恢复。故选C。
34．What’s Yasmine’s attitude towards the future of her research
A．Critical. B．Cautious.
C．Confident. D．Unclear.
答案　C
解析　观点态度题。根据倒数第二段中“‘We are definitely on the tip of uncovering some fascinating principles of the human brain...’ says Yasmine of Columbia University.”可知，Yasmine对她研究的未来充满信心。故选C。
35．Which section is this text most probably taken from
A．Health. B．Botany.
C．Figure. D．Invention.
答案　A
解析　文章出处题。通读全文，尤其根据最后一段“No matter what happens next in this swiftly moving field，one thing is certain：Brain scientists will be forever in the algae’s debt.”可知，文章主要讲述了科学家们如何从绿藻中发现能感知光的蛋白质，并利用这些蛋白质进行神经元的控制，这与生命健康有关。由此推知，短文来自健康专栏。故选A。
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。
Minor Cold：A Sugary Feast to Get Through the Freezing Winter
Minor Cold，or “Xiaohan” in Chinese，is the 23rd of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar. 36 We’ve outlined below how people deal with the Minor Cold and its significance in Chinese culture.
Why do people eat eight treasures rice pudding
Eight treasures rice pudding or “babaofan” in Mandarin is a special sweet rice dish enjoyed during Minor Cold and Chinese New Year dinner.In Chinese，the number eight is pronounced as “ba”，which is similar to another Chinese word “fa”． 37 Because of its pronunciation，this traditional Chinese dim sum is regarded as a symbol of wealth and health.
What else do people eat
38 Different regions in China have different eating habits.People in Nanjing and Shanghai usually cook vegetable rice while in Guangzhou，it is a tradition to eat sticky rice on the morning of Minor Cold.
Nationwide：Preparing for the Spring Festival
For Chinese people，this time of year also sees preparation for the most important festival of the year：the Spring Festival. 39 In the old days，Chinese families would usually start to purchase the necessities for the Spring Festival，write couplets and make paper cuts by themselves.
Forecasts from animals
The ancient Chinese noticed the slight changes in seasons by observing the movements of the birds.Wild geese would usually start to fly back to the north while the magpies(喜鹊) make their nests.These animals remind people of the beginning of the suitable farming and life for Minor Cold. 40 Therefore，more attention should be paid to domestic animals’ warmth.
A．It means getting rich or booming in business.
B．However，“babaofan” is not the only traditional food for Minor Cold.
C．For most areas of China，Minor Cold is the beginning of the coldest period.
D．Even though temperatures drop suddenly at this time，spring is not far away.
E．The last lunar month，known as “Layue”，usually begins around Minor Cold.
F．Cabbage is easy to preserve in the winter and tastes better after being preserved.
G．With each solar term，there comes a set of customs that are related to the time of a year.
36．答案　G
解析　根据上文“Minor Cold，or ‘Xiaohan’ in Chinese，is the 23rd of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar.”以及下文“We’ve outlined below how people deal with the Minor Cold and its significance in Chinese culture.”可知，上文提到了节气，下文提到了如何应对小寒和其在中国文化中的意义，故本句是在说明与节气有关的活动或者习俗。故G选项“每一个节气都有一套与节气时间相关的习俗”符合语境，故选G。
37．答案　A
解析　根据上文“In Chinese，the number eight is pronounced as ‘ba’，which is similar to another Chinese word ‘fa’．”可知，本句承接上文说明数字8的具体寓意。故A选项“它的意思是变得富有或生意兴隆”符合语境，故选A。
38．答案　B
解析　根据第二段提到了八宝饭，以及下文“Different regions in China have different eating habits...on the morning of Minor Cold.”可知，本句与上文形成转折，说明除了八宝饭以外还有其他要吃的传统食物，故B选项“然而，‘八宝饭’并不是小寒唯一的传统食物”符合语境，故选B。
39．答案　E
解析　根据下文“In the old days，Chinese families would usually start to purchase the necessities for the Spring Festival，write couplets and make paper cuts by themselves.”可知，本句是在说明中国家庭开始准备春节用品的时间，故E选项“农历的最后一个月，被称为‘腊月’，通常在小寒前后开始”符合语境，故选E。
40．答案　C
解析　根据下文“Therefore，more attention should be paid to domestic animals’ warmth.”提到了重视家畜保暖，说明小寒与天气变冷有关。故C选项“对中国大部分地区来说，小寒是最冷时期的开始”符合语境，故选C。
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 never thought that I had to move to another state at 14.I was doubly 41 for I had just lost my father.

Soon I got 46 with the new schedule of school，adjusting to the new city.Times fled quickly until I 47 the news of Sara’s marriage.My thoughts wandered about her and our good 48 in the native town of Kerala.
I happened to 49 the town after 20 years.What a(n) 50 —Sara’s daughter was sleeping in the very cradle from my mother.I also came to know Sara was 51 on her mother’s decision to donate this cradle and she refused.Sara，even today，treats this gift as a blessing and a sign of 52 from my mother to her.She now 53 the cradle to other babies and fetches it when they start walking.
“This is not just a material thing；this indicates our strong 54 .The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its 55 ，” Sara said.
语篇解读　本文是夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述作者一家要搬家，就把摇篮送给了她的好朋友Sara，而Sara把这个礼物视若珍宝，并强调这个礼物的卓越之处在于它的合适性，而不是它值多少钱。
41．A.guilty B．sad
C．nervous D．shameful

Agatha was in the library，reading the Girl Detective series，when she noticed something strange.Her best friends，Timmy and Florence，were talking to each other in whispers while keeping a good，safe distance from her! When she waved at them，they looked away.
Things only got stranger in art class.Timmy and Florence went to sit at a different table from Agatha busy painting and glanced at her when they thought she wasn’t looking.
Now，Agatha considered herself to be something of a detective.After all，she had read many detective stories for children and even had an old broken magnifying glass(放大镜) abandoned by her father.When the rest of the class went out for lunch，she slipped to Timmy and Florence’s table and examined it carefully with the magnifying glass.
There was paint，and red and pink construction paper.What could they be doing This was definitely a mystery that needed solving!
After lunch Timmy and Florence chatted to her as if nothing was going on，but they kept smiling at her in a slightly strange way.Of course，Agatha could have asked them what they were up to，and they might have told her—but she wouldn’t have a chance to become a detective!
On the way home from school，Florence and her mum happened to walk ahead of Agatha and her mum.Agatha saw them go into the bookshop.Strange，again.Florence didn’t read much—no matter how many detective stories Agatha recommended to her!
The next day at school，Agatha kept an eye on her friends and tried to work out their mystery，but they seemed determined to keep things secret.She asked them if they would like to play with her after school，but they said they couldn’t because they were busy.Even more mysterious...
When Agatha’s mum came to pick her up after school，she was so lost in the unsolved mystery that she hardly noticed her busy father was coming along，which was unusual.When they arrived home，her father said she could go into the living room.

Carol-Anne O’Callaghan，a former teacher from Great Missenden，Buckinghamshire，has fought hard to protect ancient oaks near her home，which she says are home to rare bats.
In February 2021，O’Callaghan was walking her dogs when she spotted yellow dots stuck on some of the 99 oak trees in a narrow country lane close to her home.The dots indicated trees marked for destruction.After she learned the trees would be felled as part of the HS2 high-speed railway works，she called the HS2 helpline and was told there was nothing that could be done as an over-road would be built.She gets choked up remembering the moment she realized many of them were to be cut down.
O’Callaghan loves that ancient line of oaks.They were planted in the 19th century.“My family and I would picnic under them，” she says，“climb them，have rope swings on them.The trees are amazing and beautiful and mean so much to us.” One of the last photos of her mother，taken shortly before she died，was of her sitting in a swing in their branches.
She noticed that on the other side of the lane，to the north，there were no ancient oaks.So she began campaigning to save the trees.With the help of her daughter，Blaize，she started a petition(请愿书)，which went on to get nearly 43,000 signatures.“I saw someone passionate about giving a voice to those who don’t have one，someone not afraid of asking questions and calling out large，daunting businesses for doing the wrong thing，” says her neighbour Victoria.
Buckinghamshire Council has got involved，and the felling is paused.A final decision has yet to be made about the proposed over-road.“We’re optimistic that they’ll hear our argument and take the ecology of the lane into account，” says O’Callaghan.“We want them to put in a green crossing in the gaps between trees，for the bats，and we’d like the place to become a conservation area.For the trees and the bats—this is what we are fighting for！”
24．What did the yellow dots on the oaks indicate
A．These oaks would be cut down.
B．The narrow lane would be widened.
C．Rare bats would get protected.
D．A railway station would be built.
25．Why does O’Callaghan have deep feelings for the oaks
A．Due to the oaks’ long history.
B．Due to the natural beauty.
C．Due to the precious memories.
D．Due to the diverse wildlife.
答案　C
26．What kind of person is O’Callaghan
A．Creative. B．Humorous.
C．Generous. D．Brave.
27．What is a direct result of O’Callaghan’s efforts
A．The ecology is being improved.
B．The felling has been put off.
C．The Council canceled the proposal.
D．The area becomes a reserve.

More than 3/4 of the Southeast Asia population is agriculture-based.Twice as much fish is consumed in this area compared to other forms of animal protein，reflecting the long coastlines and river environments of Southeast Asia.The staple food(主粮) throughout the area is rice，which has been planted for thousands of years.Rice serves as the basic staple food for more than half of the world’s population today.
In Asia，there are different styles of eating food.In India and the Middle East，as well as Southeast Asia，people eat food with their hands.It is a very direct way to experience the texture(口感) of the food，and people normally wash their hands before and after each meal.Normally，only the right hand is used，so that one knows to keep it especially clean.Generally，the foods to be eaten are placed on plates in the center of the mat or table，and people take food in small portions(一份) as they eat.
The exception to this pattern is Vietnam，where the influence of China was much stronger than anywhere else in Southeast Asia.Here，each person has chopsticks，and food is served and divided among people onto individual plates or into individual bowls.A similar pattern is found in other Asian countries where Chinese influence was especially strong，e.g.Japan，Korea and so on.
The influence of Western cultures is found not only in the use of tables and chairs in many modern Southeast Asian households，but also in the use of spoons and forks.Knives are not necessary，since meat and vegetables are cut into smaller portions before cooking or serving.A large spoon is held in the right hand，while the left hand is used to shovel food into the spoon.
28．What can be known from the first two paragraphs
A．Most of the Asians live in the cities.
B．Most people eat food with their hands throughout Asia.
C．Rice serves as the non-staple food in most areas in Southeast.
D．Southeast Asians eat more fish than other forms of animal protein.
29．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The food.
B．The right hand.
C．The meal.
D．The texture of the food.
30．In what aspect is Vietnam an exception
A．People there eat with their hands.
B．People take food from plates with chopsticks.
C．Food is served and shared into a large plate or bowl.
D．Japanese influence is seen more than Chinese influence.
31．What is mainly discussed in the last paragraph
A．Changes caused by Western cultures.
B．The adoption of metal eating tools.
C．The introduction of seating furniture.
D．Food culture in Western countries.

A large amount of great scientific discoveries is not actually discovered but borrowed.That was the case when scientists discovered proteins from an unlikely lender：green algae(绿藻)，whose cells are modified with proteins that can sense light.
The light-sensing protein promised the power to control neurons(神经元) by providing a way to turn them on and off.Such ability，first noticed in 2002，quickly caught the attention of brain scientists：Nerve cells which were genetically engineered to produce such proteins become light-controlled.A flash of light could cause a quiet neuron to send signals or force an active neuron to fall silent.“This is the light sensor that we needed，” says Zhuo-Hua Pan，a scientist searching for a way to control vision cells in mice’s eyes.The method is now called optogenetics(光遗传学)．
In Pan’s lab，light-responsive proteins restored vision in mice with damaged eyesight，a finding that has now led to a medical test on people.Optogenetics’ promise wasn’t clear in early days，as scientists were first learning how to use these proteins in neurons.“At that time，no one expected that this optogenetic work would have such a huge impact，” Pan says.
The algae’s light sensors have been adopted for use in countless brain research fields.Talia，another scientist，uses optogenetics to study connections between cells in the mouse brain.The method allows her to comb the relationships between cells that produce and respond to dopamine(多巴胺)，which might help uncover details about motivation and learning.
So far，optogenetics research has taken place mostly in mice.But findings into more complex brains like human brain may soon be confirmed.“We are definitely on the tip of uncovering some fascinating principles of the human brain，such as how the brain transforms signals from the eyes into perceptions，” says Yasmine of Columbia University.
No matter what happens next in this swiftly moving field，one thing is certain：Brain scientists will be forever in the algae’s debt.
32．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A．The origin of neurons.
B．The varieties of neurons.
C．The discovery of green algae.
D．The inspiration from green algae.
33．What can we learn from Pan’s research
A．The findings are used to cure brain diseases.
B．Relationships between cells have been found.
C．Impaired eyesight is likely to be restored.
D．The light-sensing protein is the key to the brain.
34．What’s Yasmine’s attitude towards the future of her research
A．Critical. B．Cautious.
C．Confident. D．Unclear.
35．Which section is this text most probably taken from
A．Health. B．Botany.
C．Figure. D．Invention.

Minor Cold：A Sugary Feast to Get Through the Freezing Winter
Minor Cold，or “Xiaohan” in Chinese，is the 23rd of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar. 36 We’ve outlined below how people deal with the Minor Cold and its significance in Chinese culture.
Why do people eat eight treasures rice pudding
Eight treasures rice pudding or “babaofan” in Mandarin is a special sweet rice dish enjoyed during Minor Cold and Chinese New Year dinner.In Chinese，the number eight is pronounced as “ba”，which is similar to another Chinese word “fa”． 37 Because of its pronunciation，this traditional Chinese dim sum is regarded as a symbol of wealth and health.
What else do people eat
38 Different regions in China have different eating habits.People in Nanjing and Shanghai usually cook vegetable rice while in Guangzhou，it is a tradition to eat sticky rice on the morning of Minor Cold.
Nationwide：Preparing for the Spring Festival
For Chinese people，this time of year also sees preparation for the most important festival of the year：the Spring Festival. 39 In the old days，Chinese families would usually start to purchase the necessities for the Spring Festival，write couplets and make paper cuts by themselves.
Forecasts from animals
The ancient Chinese noticed the slight changes in seasons by observing the movements of the birds.Wild geese would usually start to fly back to the north while the magpies(喜鹊) make their nests.These animals remind people of the beginning of the suitable farming and life for Minor Cold. 40 Therefore，more attention should be paid to domestic animals’ warmth.
A．It means getting rich or booming in business.
B．However，“babaofan” is not the only traditional food for Minor Cold.
C．For most areas of China，Minor Cold is the beginning of the coldest period.
D．Even though temperatures drop suddenly at this time，spring is not far away.
E．The last lunar month，known as “Layue”，usually begins around Minor Cold.
F．Cabbage is easy to preserve in the winter and tastes better after being preserved.
G．With each solar term，there comes a set of customs that are related to the time of a year.

(2024·山东高二上联考)
Carol-Anne O’Callaghan，a former teacher from Great Missenden，Buckinghamshire，has fought hard to protect ancient oaks near her home，which she says are home to rare bats.
语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了白金汉郡的Carol-Anne
O’ Callaghan为保护家附近的古橡树和橡树上的稀有蝙蝠而努力奔走，最终白金汉郡议会涉入此事，砍伐行动被暂停了。
In February 2021，O’Callaghan was walking her dogs when she spotted yellow dots stuck on some of the 99 oak trees in a narrow country lane close to her home.The dots indicated trees marked for destruction.After she learned the trees would be felled as part of the HS2 high-speed railway works，she called the HS2 helpline and was told there was nothing that could be done as an over-road would be built.She gets choked up remembering the moment she realized many of them were to be cut down.
O’Callaghan loves that ancient line of oaks.They were planted in the 19th century.“My family and I would picnic under them，” she says，“climb them，have rope swings on them.The trees are amazing and beautiful and mean so much to us.” One of the last photos of her mother，taken shortly before she died，was of her sitting in a swing in their branches.
She noticed that on the other side of the lane，to the north，there were no ancient oaks.So she began campaigning to save the trees.With the help of her daughter，Blaize，she started a petition(请愿书)，which went on to get nearly 43,000 signatures.“I saw someone passionate about giving a voice to those who don’t have one，someone not afraid of asking questions and calling out large，daunting businesses for doing the wrong thing，” says her neighbour Victoria.
Buckinghamshire Council has got involved，and the felling is paused.A final decision has yet to be made about the proposed over-road.“We’re optimistic that they’ll hear our argument and take the ecology of the lane into account，” says O’Callaghan.“We want them to put in a green crossing in the gaps between trees，for the bats，and we’d like the place to become a conservation area.For the trees and the bats—this is what we are fighting for！”
24.What did the yellow dots on the oaks indicate
A.These oaks would be cut down.
B.The narrow lane would be widened.
C.Rare bats would get protected.
D.A railway station would be built.
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The dots indicated trees marked for destruction.After she learned the trees would be felled...”可知，橡树上的黄色圆点表示这些橡树将被砍伐。故选A。
解析
√
25.Why does O’Callaghan have deep feelings for the oaks
A.Due to the oaks’ long history.
B.Due to the natural beauty.
C.Due to the precious memories.
D.Due to the diverse wildlife.
√
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“‘My family and I would picnic under them，’she says，‘climb them，have rope swings on them.The trees are amazing and beautiful and mean so much to us.’One of the last photos of her mother，taken shortly before she died，was of her sitting in a swing in their branches.”可知，O’Callaghan一家人在树下野餐、在树上攀爬、荡秋千，而且她有一张照片就是她母亲去世前坐在秋千上拍摄的。由此可推测出，O’Callaghan有许多与橡树有关的珍贵回忆，所以她对这些橡树有深刻的感情。故选C。
解析
26.What kind of person is O’Callaghan
A.Creative. B.Humorous.
C.Generous. D.Brave.
推理判断题。根据第四段中邻居Victoria的话“I saw someone passionate about giving a voice to those who don’t have one，someone not afraid of asking questions and calling out large，daunting businesses for doing the wrong thing”可知，邻居认为O’Callaghan敢于发声、敢于质疑和指责有错误的大企业，由此可推测出，她是一个勇敢无畏的人。故选D。
解析
√
27.What is a direct result of O’Callaghan’s efforts
A.The ecology is being improved.
B.The felling has been put off.
C.The Council canceled the proposal.

(2024·湖北荆州高二上期末)
More than 3/4 of the Southeast Asia population is agriculture-based.Twice as much fish is consumed in this area compared to other forms of animal protein，reflecting the long coastlines and river environments of Southeast Asia.The staple food(主粮) throughout the area is rice，which has been planted for thousands of years.Rice serves as the basic staple food for more than half of the world’s population today.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是东南亚国家的饮食文化。
In Asia，there are different styles of eating food.In India and the Middle East，as well as Southeast Asia，people eat food with their hands.It is a very direct way to experience the texture(口感) of the food，and people normally wash their hands before and after each meal.Normally，only the right hand is used，so that one knows to keep it especially clean.Generally，the foods to be eaten are placed on plates in the center of the mat or table，and people take food in small portions(一份) as they eat.
The exception to this pattern is Vietnam，where the influence of China was much stronger than anywhere else in Southeast Asia.Here，each person has chopsticks，and food is served and divided among people onto individual plates or into individual bowls.A similar pattern is found in other Asian countries where Chinese influence was especially strong，e.g.Japan，Korea and so on.
The influence of Western cultures is found not only in the use of tables and chairs in many modern Southeast Asian households，but also in the use of spoons and forks.Knives are not necessary，since meat and vegetables are cut into smaller portions before cooking or serving.A large spoon is held in the right hand，while the left hand is used to shovel food into the spoon.
28.What can be known from the first two paragraphs
A.Most of the Asians live in the cities.
B.Most people eat food with their hands throughout Asia.
C.Rice serves as the non-staple food in most areas in Southeast.
D.Southeast Asians eat more fish than other forms of animal protein.

A large amount of great scientific discoveries is not actually discovered but borrowed.That was the case when scientists discovered proteins from an unlikely lender：green algae(绿藻)，whose cells are modified with proteins that can sense light.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了科学家们如何从绿藻中发现能感知光的蛋白质，并利用这些蛋白质进行神经元的控制。
The light-sensing protein promised the power to control neurons(神经元) by providing a way to turn them on and off.Such ability，first noticed in 2002，quickly caught the attention of brain scientists：Nerve cells which were genetically engineered to produce such proteins become light-controlled.A flash of light could cause a quiet neuron to send signals or force an active neuron to fall silent.“This is the light sensor that we needed，” says Zhuo-Hua Pan，a scientist searching for a way to control vision cells in mice’s eyes.The method is now called optogenetics(光遗传学).
In Pan’s lab，light-responsive proteins restored vision in mice with damaged eyesight，a finding that has now led to a medical test on people.Optogenetics’ promise wasn’t clear in early days，as scientists were first learning how to use these proteins in neurons.“At that time，no one expected that this optogenetic work would have such a huge impact，” Pan says.
The algae’s light sensors have been adopted for use in countless brain research fields.Talia，another scientist，uses optogenetics to study connections between cells in the mouse brain.The method allows her to comb the relationships between cells that produce and respond to dopamine(多巴胺)，which might help uncover details about motivation and learning.
So far，optogenetics research has taken place mostly in mice.But findings into more complex brains like human brain may soon be confirmed.“We are definitely on the tip of uncovering some fascinating principles of the human brain，such as how the brain transforms signals from the eyes into perceptions，” says Yasmine of Columbia University.
No matter what happens next in this swiftly moving field，one thing is certain：Brain scientists will be forever in the algae’s debt.
32.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A.The origin of neurons.
B.The varieties of neurons.
C.The discovery of green algae.
D.The inspiration from green algae.
√
段落大意题。根据第二段“The light-sensing protein promised the power to control neurons(神经元) by providing a way to turn them on and off...A flash of light could cause a quiet neuron to send signals or force an active neuron to fall silent.‘This is the light sensor that we needed，’says Zhuo-Hua Pan，a scientist searching for a way to control vision cells in mice’s eyes.The method is now called optogenetics(光遗传学).”可知，第二段主要讲来自绿藻的启发。故选D。
解析
33.What can we learn from Pan’s research
A.The findings are used to cure brain diseases.
B.Relationships between cells have been found.
C.Impaired eyesight is likely to be restored.

Agatha was in the library，reading the Girl Detective series，when she noticed something strange.Her best friends，Timmy and Florence，were talking to each other in whispers while keeping a good，safe distance from her! When she waved at them，they looked away.
Things only got stranger in art class.Timmy and Florence went to sit at a different table from Agatha busy painting and glanced at her when they thought she wasn’t looking.
Now，Agatha considered herself to be something of a detective.After all，she had read many detective stories for children and even had an old broken magnifying glass(放大镜) abandoned by her father.When the rest of the class went out for lunch，she slipped to Timmy and Florence’s table and examined it carefully with the magnifying glass.
There was paint，and red and pink construction paper.What could they be doing This was definitely a mystery that needed solving!
After lunch Timmy and Florence chatted to her as if nothing was going on，but they kept smiling at her in a slightly strange way.Of course，Agatha could have asked them what they were up to，and they might have told her—but she wouldn’t have a chance to become a detective!
On the way home from school，Florence and her mum happened to walk ahead of Agatha and her mum.Agatha saw them go into the bookshop.Strange，again.Florence didn’t read much—no matter how many detective stories Agatha recommended to her!
The next day at school，Agatha kept an eye on her friends and tried to work out their mystery，but they seemed determined to keep things secret.She asked them if they would like to play with her after school，but they said they couldn’t because they were busy.Even more mysterious...
When Agatha’s mum came to pick her up after school，she was so lost in the unsolved mystery that she hardly noticed her busy father was coming along，which was unusual.When they arrived home，her father said she could go into the living room.
