it？ 96 days. She is actually a graduate of our college， the class of 2012.
W：Oh， really？ So， Jonathan， what amazing thing have you done？
M：Well ... I just went cycling across South America.
W：You didn’t！
M：I did. Just last year before I entered the graduate school. It was such a
brilliant time. 4 months on the road enjoying wonderful scenery in the
country， in towns and in cities all along the way. I got a bit tired，
though.
W：Sounds great！ Hmm ... maybe I should think seriously about my
big life adventure， like taking a long walk across a national park.
M：Wow！Let me know if you need someone to go with you.
（Text 9）

er ... for rental of the tennis court and balls， about 50 dollars. I do
spend some on things like reading material. And the rest I save.
W：What about clothes？
M：My mother buys them for me.
W：Thanks a lot， Matt！
M：You’re welcome.
（Text 10）
W：A group of 17-year-old schoolboys decided to break the world
basketball marathon record. They wanted to play for 90 hours and add 6
hours to the record. Each team had 9 players， with 5 at a time. The boys
decided each person would play 21.5 hours and then rest for 2 hours.
Then they started at 6 o’clock in the evening.
The first night was very hard for the players. When it was their turn to
rest， they were too excited to fall asleep at once. After sleeping for a
short time， they had to play again. On the second night， they fell asleep
as soon as they stopped. Some of them had trouble with their feet and
hands， but the only serious problem was the mental one. Each boy was
thinking： Why am I doing this？ How can I play any longer？ After the
third night， the players knew they could finish the 90 hours. The
basketball on the fourth night was very slow. But in the final hours， the
players got better. For the last few minutes， the players looked as fresh
as when they started.

　　When Hurricane Ian hit Florida， Karen Lauder refused to leave her
home because she was wrong about the intensity （强度） of the
storm.Karen is 84 years old and depends on a wheelchair to get around
because she is missing a leg.Her son， Johnny Lauder， tried repeatedly
to get her to leave， but she refused.
　　Johnny and his whole family live within a few blocks of one
another.They kept in touch with Karen as the storm continued violently
outside， watching the water rising dangerously all around them.When
Karen reported that the water in her house had reached her bottom，
Johnny knew he had to take action.
　　First， Johnny ensured his sons and their pets were taken care
of.Then， he jumped out of a window and began to swim.Johnny used to
work as a rescue swimmer.He is obviously a strong swimmer， but the
flood water was filled with dangerous materials.There was also a strong
current， and he had to swim against it for most of his trip to Karen’s.As
he made his way through the water， Johnny stopped periodically to snap
selfies （拍自拍） to show his worried family that he was okay.
　　Johnny was racing against the clock.He knew he only had a short
period of time to get there before the water rose above Karen’s head.It
took him 40 minutes to swim four blocks.The sound of Karen’s shouting
inside was music to his ears！
　　“If it would’ve been 20 minutes later， she wouldn’t be here，”
Johnny said.“She’s never been happier to see me.”
　　Karen is now safe， although she is in the hospital being treated for
infections （感染） she got in the water.The family have all lost
everything they owned， including their houses， but they’re grateful
just to be here.

came？（　　）
A. She had nowhere to go.
B. She was too old to move.

D. She lost her wheelchair and was unable to leave.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第一段首句中Karen Lauder refused to

认为飓风的强度没那么大，所以拒绝离开她的房子。

C
　　Great efforts have been made to close the gender （性别） pay
gap.But not all fields of work are created equal.
　　Alexandra Light， who has been doing ballet since she was two years
old， says even the dance world is dominated （主宰） by men at the
top.“A lot of people on the outside of the dance world still don’t
realize，” she said， “in the industry， it’s still very much a boys’
game.”
　　Tracey Rockett， who teaches management practice at Texas
Christian University， says she can point to any number of studies that
show the wide gulf （鸿沟） between women and management.That gulf
persists even in fields dominated by women.
　　“In public schools， for example， men are in the minority， but to
keep them， very often， they will be offered promotion opportunities
much earlier than women are，” Rockett said.“You see that in the
restaurant industry， in education， in healthcare， and in dance.”
　　According to the Dance Data Project， among the largest 150 ballet
companies in America， only a quarter of works produced last year were
choreographed （编舞） by women.
　　Light is a lead dancer.She knows the difficulties in reaching the
position where she is now.“You know， there’s a choreographic
workshop， and you don’t sign up for that because you’re like，
‘Well， I need to， I need to dance，’” Light said.
　　During the pandemic， women quit the workforce in larger
numbers.They reported larger rates of burnout while taking on the extra
burden of childcare.At companies where women often take the lead on
efforts of diversity and equity， they typically don’t get additional pay.
　　But Rockett sees hope in Light’s generation， Gen Z （used to
describe Americans born during the late 1990s and early 2000s）.“That
is one thing we are seeing in particular with Gen Z. They will leave
without a backup job.If they’re dissatisfied， they’re going to take
off，” Rockett said.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。一些在传统上由女性主导的领域，
实质上还是由男性主宰。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。一些在传统上由女性主导的领域，
实质上还是由男性主宰。
28. What does Light reveal about the dance world in Paragraph 2？
（　　）
A. There are many boys dancing.
B. Men take up senior positions.
C. Many girls give up dancing in the end.
D. Women are not necessarily good dancers.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第二段中Light 所说的even the dance
world is dominated （主宰）by men at the top和in the industry，
it’s still very much a boys’ game可知，Light 认为，舞蹈领域的
主宰者是男性。
29. What does the underlined word “persists” in Paragraph 3 mean？
（　　）
A. Varies. B. Revives.
C. Balances. D. Continues.
解析：　词义猜测题。根据第四段Rockett所说的话可知，在公
立学校、餐饮业、教育、医疗保健、舞蹈等领域，男性被提拔为
上层管理者的机会更多。由此推断，Rockett说女性要想成为管理
者需要跨过巨大的鸿沟，即使是在女性主导的领域里，这一鸿沟
依然存在。
30. What feeling does Light express in Paragraph 6？（　　）
A. Confusion. B. Relief.
C. Helplessness. D. Eagerness.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第六段中Light所说there’s a
choreographic workshop， and you don’t sign up for that because
you’re like， “Well， I need to， I need to dance，”可知，Light
没报名参加舞蹈工作坊，因为她需要跳舞，以保住她领舞的位
置，她的话中满是无奈。
31. What does Rockett see in Gen Z？（　　）
A. They are unwilling to do just one job.
B. They are brave to say no to unfairness.
C. They always do what they have planned.
D. They choose to ignore the gender pay gap.
解析：　推理判断题。倒数第二段提到了在一些公司里，女性
在多元化和公平方面发挥着领导作用，但她们通常不会获得额外
的薪酬。根据最后一段中Rockett所说They will leave without a
backup job.If they’re dissatisfied， they’re going to take off可
知，Rockett从Z世代人身上看到了他们敢向不公平待遇说“不”
的勇气。
D
　　Every day at sunrise on the small French Polynesian island of
Rimatara， Tiraha Mooroa goes for a run with Koha， the dog.Koha has
an important job： to sniff out （嗅出） and kill any black rats he can
find.Koha is the island’s only defense against the invasive rats.Keeping
the island rat-free is vital： the rats， which arrive via boats and cargo
ships （货船）， are the single biggest threat to native birds of the Pacific
Islands， including the Rimatara lorikeet.The beautiful bird is critically
endangered — only 1，500 remain in the wild， and a third of the entire
population lives on tiny Rimatara island.Now， of the 118 islands in
French Polynesia， Rimatara is one of only three without the rats.
　　The lorikeet was once widespread in the South Pacific.By the 18th
century， however， it had already been hunted to near extinction by the
Polynesians， who prized the bird’s red feathers for making
headdresses.By 1900， the island’s queen， Temaeva V， banned
hunting of the birds， effectively preserving the remaining
population.Since the 1990s， however， the lorikeets have faced rising
threats.
　　Socio-environmental researcher Samuel Ravatua-Smith heads up a
nest observation program， launched by the conservation association Rima
Ura， to better understand the lorikeet and its population decline.The
program monitors all lorikeet nests on the island with Bluetooth-enabled
cameras.Ravatua-Smith’s face falls as he watches the footage （镜
头）.“The videos confirm that after the visit of a white-tailed
tropicbird， the two hatchlings are no longer in the nest.The while-tailed
tropicbird may be targeting and taking over lorikeet nests because of its
own habitat loss，” Ravatua-Smith says.
　　It’s an important finding that brings Rima Ura another step closer to
saving the lorikeet.This year， close to 100 new houses are set to be built
to provide housing for residents in need.The clearing and construction
may end up encompassing （涉及） more than half of the island.Rima
Ura works to educate residents of Rimatara about how they can help
protect the lorikeet， for instance encouraging locals to plant more fruit
trees around their houses.Members of Rima Ura who live on the island
also mark nesting trees and participate in reforestation initiatives.

32. What can we infer from Paragraph 1？（　　）
A. Koha’s efforts have worked.
B. Mooroa works on a cargo ship.
C. More dogs are needed on Rimatara island.
D. The Rimatara lorikeet’s threats are under control.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第一段前三句和最后一句可知，负
责清理外来老鼠的Koha的工作有了成效。
33. What was the main reason for the decline of the lorikeet’s number
during the 18th century？（　　）
A. Invasion of black rats.
B. Habitat destruction.
C. Food competition.
D. Human hunting.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第二段中的The lorikeet was once
widespread in the South Pacific.By the 18th century，
however， it had already been hunted to near extinction by the
Polynesians可知，十八世纪时，由于人们的捕猎导致孔氏吸蜜
鹦鹉的数量大量减少。
34. What does Ravatua-Smith discover？（　　）
A. The survival rate of the lorikeet’s newborns is increasing.
B. The lorikeet’s newborns are tended by other birds.
C. The lorikeets lose their habitat to other birds.
D. The lorikeets often stay in their nests.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第三段中Samuel Ravatua-Smith heads
up a nest observation program ...to better understand the lorikeet and
its population decline ...“The videos confirm that ...The white-
tailed tropicbird may be targeting and taking over lorikeet nests
because of its own habitat loss，”可知，Ravatua-Smith发现孔氏吸
蜜鹦鹉的巢穴被其他鸟类侵占。
35. Which measure is adopted by Rima Ura to save the Rimatara
lorikeet？（　　）
A. Limiting the number of tourists on the island.
B. Building man-made nests for the birds on the island.
C. Calling on people to stop building houses on the island.
D. Uniting residents on the island to plant lorikeet-friendly trees.
解析：　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Rima Ura works to
educate residents of Rimatara about how they can help protect the
lorikeet， for instance encouraging locals to plant more fruit trees
around their houses.可知，Rima Ura组织当地岛民种植对孔氏吸蜜
鹦鹉有益的树来保护它们。

success.The list below describes several important activities that you and
your study group or learning team can collaborate （合作） on：
37. （　　）
　　After completing each week’s readings， team up with other
students to compare your highlighting and margin （页边）
notes.See if you all agree on what the author’s major points were
and what information in the chapter you should study for exams.
Sharing class notes.
　　Team up with other students immediately after class to share and
compare notes.38.（　　）
Doing library research.
　　39. （　　） Forming library research teams is an effective way to
develop a social support group for reducing this fear and for locating and
sharing information.
Meeting with the instructor.
　　Having your team visit the instructor during office hours to seek
additional assistance in preparing for exams is an effective team learning
strategy for several reasons.40.（　　） Your team visit also sends a
message to the instructor that you are serious about learning.
A. Working through homework together.
B. Comparing ideas about assigned readings.
C. This can be particularly helpful if you are shy.
D. It is a great way to review your understanding of it.
E. Studies show that many students are unfamiliar with library research
and sometimes experience “library anxiety”.
F. One teammate might have noticed something you missed， and the
same can also happen the other way around.
G. When students work effectively in a supportive group， the experience
can be helpful in improving academic achievement.

语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。短剧《逃出大英博物馆》掀起号
召文物返还的热潮。
56. to be returned　考查非谓语动词。“for＋n./pron.＋动词不定式”
是固定搭配。return和treasures之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，且动作发生
在将来，故用动词不定式的被动语态to be returned。
57. taking　考查非谓语动词。coming和taking并列作后置定语，修饰
teapot。
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。短剧《逃出大英博物馆》掀起号
召文物返还的热潮。
58. addition　考查词形转换。设空处作表语，其前由a recent修饰，故
填名词形式addition。
59. who/that　考查关系代词。设空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行
词artist，且在从句中作主语。故填who/that。
60. to　考查介词。unique to sb/sth表示“某人、某地或某物独具的、
特有的”。
61. released　考查非谓语动词。设空处作状语，the series和release之
间是逻辑上的动宾关系，且动作已发生。故填released。
62. times　考查名词复数。根据语境可知，time在此处表示“次
数”，为可数名词，且前面由270 million修饰。故填times。
63. strongly　考查词形转换。设空处作状语，修饰谓语，故填副词形
式strongly。
64. pleased　考查词形转换。设空处作表语，且根据主语We可知，此
处表示“高兴的”。故填pleased。
65. and　考查连词。history和tradition之间是并列关系，共同作about
的宾语。故填and。

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。
　　It was a cloudy fall morning in our North Carolina town， and a fine
mist dampened the fallen leaves.I was angry.My mother had slighted me
somehow， although I can’t recall what caused my anger now.I was
upset， and I would run away.
　　“Goodbye， Mom.” I stood outside the kitchen door， firmly
holding onto my suitcase.I wore my worn-out red windbreaker （风衣）
and a gray ski cap， looking the part.“Goodbye， Mom，” I repeated
twice more， pushing open the door with my foot one final time， to
make sure she’d heard.
　　At last， Mom emerged， wiping her hands on a dish towel.She
gave me the once-over.I lifted the suitcase a little just to make sure she
didn’t miss it.“I’m leaving，” I said.
　　“Did you pack a lunch？” Mom’s question knocked me off
balance.Where were the tears？The pleas （恳求）？ “I said I’m
leaving，” I said.“I’m running away.For ...ever.” I uttered the
feared word slowly， and convinced it would weaken her
determination.Instead， she smiled.
　　“Well， would you like me to fix you something？ A sandwich？
Bag of chips？ I just made chocolate chip cookies.”
　　“I’m really going，” I said.
　　“I can see that.”
　　“Maybe a cookie.”And then， “All right， I’m off.”
　　The misty rain lent drama to my journey.As I stepped onto the front
walk， fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies in my coat pocket， I looked
back at our big yellow house.I stared at the front door， waiting for it to
open.I observed the curtains in the living room window， but there was no
sign of any motion， not even a slight movement.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
　　And so I had no choice but to continue.

参考范文：
　　And so I had no choice but to continue.I got to the sidewalk and made
my way along the street.I paused at a street corner and looked back at our
house.I was uncertain about what lay ahead.I took a bite of the cookie，
and decided that my mother deserved one last chance to convince me
otherwise.I turned around and casually strolled back towards the
house.Nothing.Not even a flicker of a curtain.My mother didn’t care if I
ran away.Had she ever loved me at all？
　　A moment later， I was back in our home.“Lucy？” My
mother’s voice came softly from the darkened living room.She was on
the couch， sitting in a way I’d never seen her sit before.She perched on
a pillow， positioned just right for a view through a large window.“I’m
happy you’re home，” she said.She’d been crying.She managed a
smile when I stepped over to her， and my anger and disappointment
faded away.I knew she loved me.My mother loved me enough to let me
find my own way back home.(共36张PPT)

代词的后面，作后置定语（如句 ）；
（2）动词不定式作结果状语时，通常指出乎意料的结果（如句
），其前常用only。

一、动词不定式的时态和语态
时态 主动语态 被动语态
一般式 to do to be done
进行式 to be doing —
完成式 to have done to have been done
完成进行式 to have been doing —
二、动词不定式作定语
动词不定式作定语，一般置于被修饰的名词或代词后面，与名词或代
词之间是主谓关系、动宾关系、同位关系或修饰关系。
1. 主谓关系
被修饰的名词或代词是动词不定式的逻辑主语。序数词、形容词最
高级或the last/the only/the next等后常用动词不定式作定语，与被修
饰的名词或代词之间有逻辑上的主谓关系。
Who was the first man to climb Mount Qomolangma？
谁是第一个登上珠穆朗玛峰的人？
He is the only person to know the truth.
他是唯一了解真相的人。
2. 动宾关系
被修饰的名词或代词是动词不定式的逻辑宾语。若动词不定式是不
及物动词，需加介词才能与名词或代词之间构成动宾关系。
Tommy left us a lot of problems to solve.
汤米给我们留下了很多问题要解决。
He wanted to find a new house to live in.
他想找一所新房子住。
There is nothing to worry about.
没有什么可担心的。
名师点津
当动词不定式修饰的名词是time、 place或way时，动词不定式中的介
词一般可以省去。
He had no money and no place to live.
他没有钱，也没有地方住。
3. 同位关系
名词与动词不定式之间是同位关系。动词不定式是所修饰的名词的
具体内容，抽象名词wish、 ability、 chance、 ambition、 anxiety、
reply、 attempt、 plan等后常用动词不定式作定语，与被修饰的名
词之间为逻辑上的同位关系。
He broke his promise to write to his parents regularly.
他违背了定期给父母写信的诺言。
He has a wish to travel round the whole country.
他有一个周游全国的愿望。
4. 修饰关系
动词不定式是所修饰的词的具体内容。
I need some space to place my luggage.
我需要一些空间放行李。
Now it is time to take a rest.
现在是休息时间。
The house to be built next year will be for the homeless.
明年要建造的这所房子是给那些无家可归的人的。
5. 动词不定式作定语，有被动形式。
当动词不定式所修饰的名词是动词不定式动作的承受者时，动词不
定式既可以用主动形式，也可以用被动形式，但其含义有所不同。
比如：Do you have anything to send？意为“你有需要寄的东西
吗？”，“寄东西”的执行者是“你”；而Do you have anything to
be sent？意为“你有什么需要我（或别人）去寄的东西吗？”，动
作的执行者是问话者或其他人。

三、动词不定式作结果状语
动词不定式作结果状语往往表示其动作发生在谓语动作之后，并且总
是在句末，而不能置于句首。
1. 动词不定式作结果状语，常用于以下结构：
（1）too＋形容词/副词＋to ...“太……而不能……”

这个老妇人太虚弱而搬不动这个沉重的箱子。
（2）...enough to ...“……足够……”

（5）在never to ...结构中
His son left home on a cold morning， never to return.
他的儿子在一个寒冷的早上离开了家，再也没有回来。
2. 在特殊结构only to ...中，动词不定式常表示没有预料到的结果，
其前经常有only或just修饰。
He hurried to the station， only to find the train had left.
他匆忙赶到车站，却发现火车已经开走了。
He picked up a stone， just to have it dropped on his own feet.

的结果”。

Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　As cities balloon with growth， access to nature for people living in
urban areas is becoming harder to find.If you’re lucky， there might be
a pocket park near where you live， but it’s unusual to find places in a
city that are relatively wild.
　　Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for
humans， but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely
important for human well-being.
　　The research team focused on a large urban park.They surveyed
several hundred park-goers， asking them to submit a written summary
online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park.The
researchers then examined these submissions， coding （编码）
experiences into different categories.For example， one participant’s
experience of “We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a
while” was assigned the categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”
　　Across the 320 submissions， a pattern of categories the researchers
call a “nature language” began to emerge.After the coding of all
submissions， half a dozen categories were noted most often as important
to visitors.These include encountering wildlife， walking along the edge
of water， and following an established trail.
　　Naming each nature experience creates a usable language， which
helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most
satisfying and meaningful to them.For example， the experience of
walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young
　　“We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-
nature interactions back into our daily lives.And for that to happen， we
also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it，” said Peter
Kahn， a senior author of the study.

text？（　　）
A. Pocket parks are now popular.
B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.
C. Many cities are overpopulated.
D. People enjoy living close to nature.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第一段中access to nature for people
living in urban areas is becoming harder to find以及it’s unusual to
find places in a city that are relatively wild可知，在城市里很难找到
野生自然。
2. Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories？
（　　）
A. To compare different types of park-goers.
B. To explain why the park attracts tourists.
C. To analyze the main features of the park.
D. To find patterns in the visitors’ summaries.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第三段第一句及第四段可知，研究人
员之所以进行编码分类是为了从公园游客提交的总结材料中找到他
们与自然交流行为的类别模式。
3. What can we learn from the example given in Paragraph 5？（　　）
A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.
B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.
C. The same nature experience takes different forms.
D. The nature language enhances work performance.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第五段所举的例子可知，年轻的职业

同的形式。
4. What should be done before we can interact with nature according to
Kahn？（　　）
A. Language study.
B. Environmental conservation.
C. Public education.
D. Intercultural communication.

　　Official figures show that 101 people were killed in road accidents on
the streets of London last year.The city wants to reduce the number of
deaths and serious injuries on the capital’s roads to zero.It seems
impossible.But it focuses minds on an important question： What can help reduce accidents in a big city？ Transport for London （TfL）， the
capital’s road and rail authority， has some answers： safe speeds， safe vehicles， and so on.
　　A safety standard for Heavy Goods Vehicles （HGVs）， which
harnesses blind-spot cameras and close-proximity sensors （近距离传感
器）， is pioneering.These cameras and sensors are widely placed where
they are needed.The European Commission has followed it.TfL has also
helpfully identified London’s most dangerous places.Half of Britain’s
most dangerous roads run through the capital.Around three-quarters of
accidents that cause deaths or serious injuries happen at crossings；the Holborn gyratory， near the British Museum， has been the site of the most deaths since 2012.Westminster is the most dangerous area for walkers and cyclists， so it introduced 20 mph speed limits on all its roads in 2021.
　　“Vision Zero” was launched in 2018.Deaths and serious injuries on London’s roads have fallen — by 53% and 40% respectively in 2022.But movement is not one-way.Deaths were record-breakingly low in 2020 and 2021.But in 2022 the deaths rose again.“We are moving in the right direction，” says Will Norman， London’s walking and cycling commissioner.
　　A funding crisis for TfL has put off improving the riskiest spots.Only
a few parts of the 1010 Avenue have bike lanes with guardrails.Safety is
the biggest barrier to people taking up cycling or letting their children walk
or cycle.But greener vehicles may be unsafe themselves.E-scooters （电
动踏板车） are the latest thing to confuse planners.“One of those doing
50 mph down the road is not good for anybody，” said Mr Norman.

采取了一系列措施以及“Vision Zero”计划。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了伦敦为了减少交通事故
采取了一系列措施以及“Vision Zero”计划。
5. What is the author’s purpose in writing Paragraph 1？（　　）
A. To make the article interesting.
B. To stress the importance of TfL.
C. To call on scientists to study the question.
D. To give some background information.
解析：　目的意图题。根据第一段内容可知，去年伦敦街头有
101人死于交通事故。为了避免更多类似事故发生，伦敦交通局给
出了一些方法：保持安全的速度、保持车辆安全等。因此，第一段
的目的是给出背景信息。
6. What does the underlined word “harnesses” in Paragraph 2 mean？
（　　）
A. Compares. B. Removes.
C. Uses. D. Replaces.
解析：　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的These cameras and sensors
are widely placed where they are needed.可知，盲点摄像头和近距离
传感器被广泛安装在需要的地方。结合画线词所在句可知，一项针
对重型货车的安全标准使用了盲点摄像头和近距离传感器。由此猜
测，画线词意为“使用，利用”，与use意思相近。
7. What is Will Norman’s attitude to the “Vision Zero”？（　　）
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive.
C. Puzzled. D. Unclear.
解析：　观点态度题。根据第三段中威尔·诺曼所说“We are
moving in the right direction”可知，威尔·诺曼对这项计划是
支持的。
8. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph？（　　）
A. Bike lanes are not safe anymore for riders on roads.
B. Children should think twice when taking up cycling.
C. Safety has been a problem for some eco-friendly vehicles.
D. E-scooters have become the biggest confusion for planners.
解析：　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Safety is the biggest barrier
to people taking up cycling or letting their children walk or cycle.But
greener vehicles may be unsafe themselves.可知，作者想告诉我们，
一些环保的交通工具本身就存在安全隐患。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
　　Unlike hurricanes or floods， earthquakes happen without warning
and are usually followed by similar aftershocks， although the aftershocks
are usually less powerful than the quake.If you find yourself in the middle
of an earthquake， there’s often only a short time to decide what to
do.9.（　　）
　　 Drop to the ground.The drop， cover， and hold on technique is the
cousin of the famous “stop，drop and roll” for fires.While it’s not the
only method of protecting yourself indoors during an earthquake， it is the
preferred method of the Red Cross.Big earthquakes occur without much，
if any， warning.10.（　　） A small earthquake could turn into a big
earthquake in a split second； it’s better to be safe than sorry.
　　 Take cover.Get under a firm table or other piece of furniture.11.
（　　） If there isn’t a table or desk near you， cover your face and
head with your arms and crouch （蜷缩） in an inside corner of the building.
　　 Hold on.12.（　　） Hold on to whatever surface or platform
you’ve gotten under and wait for the shaking to stop.If you were unable
to find a surface to hide under， continue to keep your head protected by
your arms and tucked （躲藏，隐藏） down low.
　　 13.（　　） Researchers have shown that most injuries happen
when people try to change the place of hiding or when the place is crowded
and everyone has a goal to get outside safe.
A. Stay inside until it’s safe to get out.
B. In that case， move to the nearest safe place.
C. Stairs are dangerous places to walk during an earthquake.
D. So it’s recommended that you drop to the floor as soon as it hits.
E. If possible， stay away from windows and anything that could fall.
F. The ground maybe shaking and pieces of wood or brick could be
falling.
G. Studying the following advice could be the difference between life and
death.

如何反应的建议。
9. G　上句说明身处地震中，决定该做什么的时间很短。G项（考虑
以下建议可能是生与死的区别）承接上文，并引出下文提出的建议。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要给出了四条发生地震时该
如何反应的建议。
10. D　本段主旨句Drop to the ground.说明本段给出的建议是卧倒在
地。根据空格上下文可知，大地震发生时不会有太多预警，而小地震
在一刹那也可能会变成大地震。D项（所以建议地震一发生你就卧倒
在地）符合本段主旨，且与上下文语义一致。
11. E　本段主旨句Take cover.说明本段给出的建议是躲起来。上句说
明躲起来时应注意的事项。E项（如果可能的话，远离窗户和任何可
能坠落的物体）继续介绍躲起来时的注意事项。
12. F　下句说明要待在相对安全的平面或平台下面，等待震动停
止。F项（地面可能会晃动，木块或砖块可能会掉落）解释下文动
作的原因。
13. A　空格位于段首，为本段主旨句。下文说明大多数伤害发生在
人们试图改变躲藏的地点或者地方太拥挤并且每个人都想出去时。A
项（待在里面，直到出去是安全的）能够概括下文内容。

The Last Days of Pompeii

　　Edward Bulwer-Lytton （1803－1873） was a talented British writer who left his mark on① the English language.[1]His classic novel The Last Days of Pompeii imagines life in the ancient Roman② city of Pompeii in the year 79③， when Mount Vesuvius erupted④.[2]This terrible natural disaster destroyed Pompeii completely， but it also kept the ancient city as it was for future ages.Since 1748， Pompeii has been systematically⑤ unearthed⑥.Today it is an international tourist destination⑦.
　　
　　[1]句中when引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the year 79，
when在从句中作时间状语。

　　Pompeii was a typical Roman city.In its little shops， its tiny
palaces， its forum⑧， its wine bars⑨， its theatre—in the energy and
skill⑩ of its people， you saw a model of the whole Roman
Empire.[3]Trading ships bringing imports to the city or carrying
exports overseas， along with golden pleasure boats for the rich， were
crowded together in the glassy water of the port .The boats of the
fishermen moved rapidly in all directions .Above all ， the cloud-
capped top of Mount Vesuvius appeared.[4] Its ashy rocks， now
dark， now light， told a story of past eruptions that might have warned
the city what was to come！
　　[3]along with连接并列主语Trading ships和golden pleasure boats，
谓语是were crowded together，与前面的主语Trading ships保持数的一
致；动词-ing形式短语bringing imports to the city or carrying exports
overseas作后置定语，修饰Trading ships。
　　[4]now dark， now light作伴随状语； that引导定语从句，修饰
先行词a story； what was to come 作 warned 的宾语，其中be to do结
构表示将来；might have done 表示“过去本可以做但实际并没有
做”。

　　[5]The awful night rolled slowly away， and the dawn greyly
broke on THE LAST DAY OF POMPEII！ [6]The crowd looked
upwards， and saw， with unspeakable fear， a huge cloud shooting from
the top of the volcano.It took the form of a huge tree： the trunk，
blackness， the branches， fire！ This fire moved and changed in colour
with every moment： now it was wildly bright， now of a pale and dying
red， and now again it burnt with an unbearable light！
　　[5]字母全部大写，起强调作用；同时与文章标题相呼应，突出
悲剧式的主题，给读者以视觉上的震撼。
　　[6]and连接两个并列谓语looked和saw； saw ...a huge cloud
shooting ...是“感官动词＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构；介词短语

　　The cries of women broke out ； the men looked at each other，
but were silent.At that moment， they felt the earth shaking beneath their
feet； beyond in the distance ， they heard the crash of falling roofs.A
moment later， the mountain-cloud seemed to roll towards them， dark
and rapid， like a river； at the same time， it threw out a shower of
ashes and huge pieces of burning stone！[7]Over the empty streets—over
the forum—far and wide —with many a noisy crash in the stormy sea—
fell that awful shower！
　　[7]本句是完全倒装句。该句最重要的信息 fell that awful shower
以主句形式出现在最后，次要的信息出现在句首， 通常，这样的句
式称为“圆周句”或者“掉尾句”。这种句式可以营造一种悬念，
抓住读者的注意力， 随着句子一步步展开， 一层层深入， 在末尾形
成高潮， 有力地表达了重要的信息。
break out 突然开始，爆发
beyond adv.在（或向）较远处；在另一边 prep.在（或向）更远
处；超出；晚于；无法；超出……之外
distance n.遥远，久远；距离；差异；疏远

　　Each turned to fly—each running， pressing， pushing against the
other.If， in the darkness， wife was separated from husband， or
parent from child， there was no hope of their meeting again.Each hurried
blindly and fearfully on.[8]So came the earthquake ...and so ended life
in Pompeii.
　　[8]本句是and连接的并列句，两个分句都是完全倒装句。
　
be separated from 与……分离
　be divided into 被分成……
　　Nearly seventeen centuries had rolled away before the city of Pompeii
was dug from its silent resting place.[9] Its walls were fresh as if painted
yesterday； not a single colour changed on the rich pattern of its
floors.In its forum， the half-finished columns seemed as if just left by
the workman’s hand.[10]Long after fire and ash came for the people of
Pompeii， the remains of their beautiful city survive to remind us that
human lives burn bright and short .
　　[9]as if引导方式状语从句，as if painted yesterday为状语从句的
省略，完整的句子应该是as if they were painted yesterday。
　　[10]Long after引导时间状语从句；主句是主谓结构，其中to
remind us ...是动词不定式短语作结果状语，后面that human
lives ...中的that引导的是宾语从句。
pattern n.图案，花样；模式；范例；模型
column n.柱，圆柱；柱状物；栏；专栏；队，列
remains n.遗址，遗迹；剩余物
lives burn bright and short 生命灿烂而短暂
【参考译文】
庞贝城的末日
（节选）
　　爱德华·布尔沃-利顿（1803－1873）是一位才华横溢的英国作
家，对英语语言产生了深远的影响。在其经典小说《庞贝城的末日》
中，他对公元79年维苏威火山爆发时，古罗马城市庞贝的生活场景展
开了想象。这场骇人天灾将庞贝城彻底摧毁，却又为后世保存了这座
古城的原貌。从1748年起，庞贝城开始得到系统发掘，如今这里已成
为国际旅游胜地。
　　庞贝是一座典型的罗马城市。从它的一个个小商铺，一座座小殿
宇、广场、酒馆、剧场中——从庞贝人的活力和技艺中，你能看到整
个古罗马帝国的缩影。进口货物到城内、出口货物到海外的商船，以
及富贵人家金灿灿的游船，齐聚在港口波光粼粼的水面上。条条渔船
向着四面八方疾行。在这一切的上方，云雾笼罩的维苏威火山山顶若
隐若现。火山岩忽明忽暗，讲述着过去火山几度喷发的故事，这本来
可以警告这座城市里的人们，灾难即将降临！
　　可怕的夜晚缓缓退去，晦暗的晨光开启了庞贝城的末日！人们抬
头仰望，眼前景象让他们感到莫名恐惧，只见一团庞大的云正从火山
口喷薄而出。它的形状像一棵大树：树干呈黑色，树枝是烈火！火焰
翻腾着，颜色变幻不定，时而极明亮，时而又变得微弱，呈现熄灭之
前的暗红，时而又烧起来，放出刺眼的强光！
　　女人们开始尖叫，男人们面面相觑，却都一言不发。那一刻，他
们感到大地在脚下晃动，他们听到远处屋顶坍塌的巨响。过了片刻，
山上的云团似乎正向他们滚滚而来，阴沉迅猛，如汹涌的江水，与此
同时，云团中抛洒下阵阵雨似的火山灰和大块大块燃烧着的石头。可
怕的熔岩雨砸下来了，落在空荡荡的街道上、广场上，到处都是，落
在波涛汹涌的大海里，发出阵阵巨响！
　　所有人都赶忙飞奔——他们奔跑，拥挤，你推我搡。黑暗中，一
旦妻离子散，就绝不可能重逢了。每个人都惊慌失措地盲目奔逃。这
时，地震来了……庞贝城的生活就此终结。
　　时间流过了近十七个世纪，庞贝城终于从它寂静的长眠之地被发
掘出来。它的墙壁依然新得像昨天刚刚刷完；地板上繁复的图案，一
点都没有褪色。广场上，那些尚未完工的石柱看起来就像刚刚离开工
匠之手。在大火和火山灰吞噬庞贝城的人们很久很久之后，他们美丽
城市的遗迹幸存下来，提醒我们人类的生命灿烂而短暂。

滚滚浓烟比作汹涌的江水，使读者能够身临其境地感受到火
山喷发时的恐怖场面。

【教材原句】　This terrible natural disaster destroyed Pompeii
completely， but it also kept the ancient city as it was for future ages.
这场骇人天灾将庞贝城彻底摧毁，却又为后世保存了这座古城的
原貌。
【用法】
as作连词的主要用法：
（1）as在本句中引导方式状语从句，意为“如同，按照……的方式
（样子、方法）”。常用于（just） as ...as ...和as＋动词-ed形式
的省略结构中。
（2）as引导时间状语从句，意为“随着；一边……一边……”。
（3）as引导原因状语从句，意为“因为；由于”。
（4）as引导比较状语从句，意为“像……一样”。
（5）as引导让步状语从句，意为“尽管，虽然”，从句通常用倒装句式，即“名词/形容词/副词/分词/动词＋as＋系动词be/助动词”结构。
【品悟】　When in Rome， do as Romans do.入乡随俗。

Young as he is　
⑤Although they were tired， they stayed up preparing the report.
→ ， they stayed up preparing the report.（用as升
级句子）
⑥As time went by， they saw less and less of each other.
→ ， they saw less and less of each other.（用
with升级句子）
Tired as they were　
With time going by　
句型公式：be to do结构
【教材原句】　Its ashy rocks， now dark， now light， told a story of
past eruptions that might have warned the city what was to come！
火山岩忽明忽暗，讲述着过去火山几度喷发的故事，这本来可以警告
这座城市里的人们，灾难即将降临！
【用法】
be to do结构表示将来，主要有以下几个方面的含义：
（1）表示不可避免地将要发生或命中注定的事情，常译为“注定
会……，一定会……”。
（2）表示预先安排好的计划或约定。
（3）表示“必须……”，相当于must或have to。
（4）表示“想；打算”，相当于intend或want。
（5）用于if或even if/though引导的从句中，表示对未来的假设。
【品悟】　 His invention was to bring a sharp increase to the rice
production of the world.
他的发明注定要大幅度提高世界水稻的产量。
【点津】　在be to do结构中，若do与句子的主语构成逻辑上的动宾关

are to have reported　
are to be there　
You are to succeed　
句型公式：状语从句的省略
【教材原句】　Its walls were fresh as if painted yesterday ...它的墙壁
依然新得像昨天刚刚刷完……
【用法】
句中as if引导方式状语从句，as if 后省略了they were。
（1）as if/though引导的从句中的主语和主句主语一致，且含有be动
词时，从句中的主语和be动词常常可以省略。
（2）引导状语从句时，可以省略从句中的主语和be动词的连词还有
while、 once、 as、 when、 unless、 until、 even if、 though、 if等。
【品悟】　Then she was just staring at me as if （she was） trying to
figure me out.
当时她就一直盯着我，好像想弄明白我是谁。

was hit by a car.在遛狗的时候，他不小心松了手，结果狗被一辆汽车

Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　Can you survive an unannounced storm？ Although there is expert
broadcasting and we are equipped with cellphones， there are still some
examples when the violent weather takes us by surprise.
　　While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the coast of Africa giving
plenty of early warning， sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico
hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day’s time，
endangering everyone and everything in their path.
　　There have been oil workers trapped off the coast when sudden storms
appeared.Field archaeologists have been stuck in seaside areas without
storm warnings.A few decades ago， a Texas National Guard group was
trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and had to ride out a major
hurricane during a training exercise.There’ve been a few cases where
travelers were trapped on an island or in a seaside area and unable to
escape in time.
　　Escaping from the storm-threatened areas is generally a choice for
most of us — but not for all.Each year thousands of islanders across the
Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without a public shelter to hide
in.Most ride out the storm in their homes.
　　But there’re a few things you can do to prepare yourself for some
unexpected emergencies.Being prepared for the unexpected may be your
best and only defense.If you’re headed outdoors for a few days or
weeks， you should always carry a flashlight （手电筒） with extra
batteries， a GPS device （装置） ， and a basic medical box.If you’re
traveling in your car， remember you may suffer from high winds.You’d
better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your
car.Keeping your head and your courage up is crucial to survival in any
type of danger.Let common sense guide you and always be prepared for
the worst.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
　　While today’s roads are safer than ever before， accidents still
happen.5.（　　） This practice involves anticipating potential risks and
driving in a way that keeps you safe and secure based on road
conditions.Here are some specific tips that could help you.
　　Observe， anticipate and plan.
　　Defensive driving is all about being observant， anticipating
problems and planning ahead.So， what can you see？ What does that
mean to you？ And what will you do about it to stay safe？ 6.（　　）
This means you can anticipate that there might be a garbage truck around
the next corner， so you should slow down on the bend just in case.
　　Be cautious about turn signals.
　　Just because the car in front of you is indicating left doesn’t mean it
will actually turn that way.7.（　　） Wait and see what the driver does
rather than presuming （推测） he or she realizes that the turn signals are
on.Don’t do anything until you know for sure.
　　Create a safety bubble.
　　8. （　　） In this way， you will have room to maneuver （移动
车辆） when others make mistakes.Always remember that however hard
you are concentrating on the road， the person coming toward you might
be messing with their phone or just generally distracted.You can never be
sure they’ll do the right thing.
　　9. （　　）
　If the person behind you is driving erratically （摇晃不定地） or too
close， when it’s safe to do so， pull over and let him or her
pass.Driving is not a race.It’s best to play it safe and avoid putting
yourself in a dangerous position.
A. If in doubt， pull over.
B. Look in your mirrors frequently.
C. Keep a close eye on the road ahead.
D. For example， you might notice some garbage cans are out on the
street.
E. Keep as much space around your car as possible when you’re on the
road.
F. One of the best ways to stay safe on roads is by practicing defensive
driving.
G. Unless you can physically see the vehicle turning， that action hasn’t
been confirmed.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章提出了几点关于防御性驾驶的
建议。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章提出了几点关于防御性驾驶的
建议。
5. F　设空处前一句说明虽然如今的道路比以往任何时候都更安全，
但事故仍在发生；设空处后一句提到这种做法涉及预测潜在风险以及
根据路况安全驾驶。设空处后一句的This practice指代F项中的
defensive driving。
6. D　上文指出防御性驾驶就是要作出观察、预测和计划。下文说明
这就意味着你能预见到下一个拐角处可能会有一辆垃圾车，所以你应
该在弯道减速，以防万一。D项对上文进行举例说明，其中的garbage
cans与下文中的a garbage truck相呼应。
7. G　设空处前一句说明即便你前面的车开启了左转向灯，也不意味
着它真的会左转。设空处后一句指出：观望一下前车的驾驶员会怎么
做，而不是假定这位驾驶员知道自己开启了转向灯。G项中的turning
与小标题中的turn signals以及下文中的turn signals相呼应。
8. E　下文指出：这样一来，当别人犯错时，你就有回旋的余地。E
项中的Keep as much space around your car as possible 与设空处后一句
中的have room to maneuver相呼应。
9. A　通读设空处下面一段可知，如果你后车的驾驶员开车摇晃不定
或者离得太近，在安全的情况下靠边停车，为其让路。开车不是比
赛，安全最重要。因此，A项概括了本段主旨，适合作小标题，其中
的pull over与下文中的pull over构成原词复现。
Ⅲ.完形填空
　　Moe Hunter was struck down by a serious brain disease many years
ago， and he spent more than a month in a coma （昏迷）.He 　10　
brain surgery and recovered much more quickly than expected： “My
doctor said it was a 　11　.”
　　Not only that， he soon amazed his friends and family with
the 　12　 he showed.The 38-year-old 　13　 had a talent for drawing，
painting， and model building — despite “being rubbish” at art in
school.
　　Hunter said， “ When I 　14　 all of my stuff， I had no idea how
it had happened.When I spoke to the doctor， he just said ‘ 　15　
it， ’ and said there’s so much about the brain they still can’t 　16　
and this is just a phenomenon （现象）.Nobody has really given a
medical explanation for it.”
　　The 　17　 thing he drew was a character in a video game， and his
mother immediately asked， “When did you learn how to 　18　？”
　　“It was 　19　.I haven’t stopped since then.I just 　20　 I had
this passion which never existed in me before，” Hunter said.
　　He used his 　21　 skills to work for himself as a carpenter （木工）
and began 　22　 models of his favourite superheroes and film
characters.The father-of-one has since sold pieces of his artwork.
　　“After being given this second chance at life and a new 　23　， I
wanted to 　24　 it， and it was nice.I’m just doing what my doctor
told me to do and trying to enjoy it，” said Hunter.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。一位男士在接受脑部手术后，意外
获得了从未有过的艺术才能。
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。一位男士在接受脑部手术后，意外
获得了从未有过的艺术才能。
10. A. awoke from B. counted on
C. gave up D. prepared for
解析：　根据上句的he spent more than a month in a coma可知，
Hunter昏迷了一个多月；结合本句中的recovered much more
quickly than expected可知，Hunter接受脑部手术后醒了过来，并
恢复得比预期快得多。
11. A. miss B. warning
C. mistake D. wonder
解析：　根据语境可知，空前的it指代上文中Hunter恢复得很快
这件事，结合文章首句中的a serious brain disease和a month in a
coma可知，能在重病后恢复得这么快是一个奇迹。
12. A. generosity B. creativity
C. curiosity D. honesty
解析：　根据空前的he soon amazed his friends and family以及下
句中的had a talent for drawing， painting， and model building和
“being rubbish” at art in school可知，Hunter上学时并不擅长艺
术，因此他是突然拥有绘画和模型制作等才能的；而进行艺术类
活动是在创作，因此是他所展示出的创造力令他的朋友和家人大
为惊讶。第五段中Hunter所说which never existed in me before也是
提示。
13. A. suddenly B. probably
C. finally D. nearly
解析：　参见上题解析。
14. A. tried out B. handed in
C. looked at D. took over
解析：　根据语境可知，后半句中的it指代all of my stuff，即
Hunter创作出的作品；结合上文中他突然拥有艺术才能可知，他
看着自己创作出来的东西时，都不知道自己是怎么做到的。
15. A. forget B. stop C. prove D. enjoy
解析：　最后一段中的I’m just doing what my doctor told me to
do and trying to enjoy it提示本空选择enjoy，属于原词复现。
16. A. imagine B. cure
C. understand D. change
解析：　根据空后的this is just a phenomenon及下句可知，医生
表示，有很多关于大脑的事情他们仍然无法了解。
17. A. same B. only C. best D. first
解析：　根据后半句his mother immediately asked， “When did
you learn how to 　18　？”和下段中I haven’t stopped since then.
可知，此处介绍的是Hunter所画的第一幅图。
18. A. drive B. draw C. dance D. design
解析：　上半句中的drew提示本空选draw，属于原词复现。
19. A. crazy B. hopeless
C. wrong D. different
解析：　根据上段中母亲的提问可知，Hunter的画令母亲感到惊
讶。由此推断，此处是Hunter对自己突然具备绘画才能的事实感
到不可思议。故选crazy。
20. A. remembered B. believed
C. found D. accepted
解析：　根据上句I haven’t stopped since then.可知，空后的I
had this passion which never existed in me before是Hunter所发现的
事情。
21. A. medical B. unique
C. social D. new
解析：　根据空后的work for himself as a carpenter可知，Hunter
利用的是他的艺术才能；结合上文内容可知，他的艺术才能是手
术后意外得到的，即新获得的，故选new。下段首句中的new也是
提示。
22. A. building B. following
C. testing D. exploring
解析：　根据空前的work for himself as a carpenter和下句The
father-of-one has since sold pieces of his artwork.可知，Hunter开始
制作并出售他最喜欢的超级英雄和电影角色的模型。
23. A. job B. meaning
C. talent D. identity
解析：　根据下句中Hunter所说I’m just doing what my doctor
told me to do and trying to enjoy it并结合文章内容可知，Hunter术
后重生并获得了新才能，而他决定好好利用和享受这一才能。
24. A. take place of B. take advantage of
C. take care of D. take charge of
解析：　参见上题解析。
Ⅳ.读后续写
　　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。
　　Steven James Squeak was a student in Lincoln Elementary
School.When Squeak entered the fifth grade， he was already a wizard
（奇才） at riding a skateboard （滑板）.He also kept his grades up，
proving he was really a great role model for other students.
　　Squeak loved skateboarding， but he wanted to give something new a
try.After seeing a video of some amazing surfers on the Internet， he
knew what challenge he wanted to take on next.
　　“Surfing is perfect for me，” he told his parents one evening，
while trying to get them to pay for lessons.“Besides， it’s just like
skateboarding！”
　　Squeak’s parents agreed to pay for some surfing lessons for their
son.They invited a man named Troy Mason to teach him.Troy had been in
international competitions when he was young and was rather famous in
the surfing world.
　　Squeak soon found out that surfing was quite different from
skateboarding.After forty-five minutes of his first lesson with Troy， he
failed to balance himself on his new surfboard for more than a second or
two.While on top of the surfboard， unlike the pavement （路面） under
his skateboard that never moved， the water never stopped moving，
causing him to fall time and time again.
　　“You’ll get it， kid，” Troy said to him， trying to encourage
Squeak.“Don’t worry about it.You just need to keep coming out here
into the water with me to practice， the same as what you did with your
skateboard.”
　　Squeak thanked Troy and showed up for each of his lessons.
Throughout his fourth lesson with Troy， Squeak was finally making some progress.He could stand on the board and direct it a little bit to the left and a little bit to the right.
　　“Keep up the good work！” said Troy.“Let’s head back to the
beach.”
　　Troy turned around and swam in the direction of the beach.Squeak
wanted to keep on surfing and try staying on his board a little longer.
Suddenly， he heard someone yelling “Help！ Help！” Squeak saw a man struggling in the water， and that there was no one else nearby.The lifeguard （救生员） must have just switched spots.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Squeak concentrated as hard as he could and hopped （跳） on his
board.

　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　Troy was waiting along with a crowd of people.
　　　　　 　　　　　　 　　　　　　 　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　 　
　　 　　
　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　 　
参考范文：
　　Squeak concentrated as hard as he could and hopped （跳） on his
board.He took a wave right over to the man who called for help.It was the
longest time Squeak had spent balancing on his surfboard yet！ Squeak got
over to him in a moment and put his arm under the man’s. They used his
board to float to the beach where a crowd had gathered.Finally， the
lifeguard saw what was happening and jumped in to help， too.
Troy was waiting along with a crowd of people.As soon as Squeak
and the man he’d helped got back to the beach， he ran up to
Squeak.“Troy！” Squeak said excitedly.“Did you see me？ I
surfed！ I really surfed！” Troy nodded happily and hugged him.He’d
seen Squeak help the man， and felt proud of him.“Squeak， you are a
hero！” He said aloud.He was even surprised that Squeak could surf！
From then on， Squeak was known more for his surfing than his
skateboarding.(共114张PPT)

[1]Pupils’ lives spared① during Falmont earthquake
　　 By Raymond Tran
　　 18 March
　　[2]FALMONT—On 17 March， 476 students and 36 teachers at
Falmont Primary School escaped an earthquake that hit② the county at 2：
27 p.m.Only 5 students suffered slight injuries， despite the current
figures of 7 killed and over 200 injured③ in the disaster④ area at large⑤.
　　[1]英语报刊的新闻标题一般不用过去时态，通常采用现在时
态，以达到使动词既传神达意又具有时间感的目的，这种用法被称
作“新闻现在时”。 该标题省略了be动词are； 标题中的spared 是对
新闻核心内容的提炼；后置的介词短语during Falmont earthquake点明
事件发生的情境。
　　[2]句中that 引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词an earthquake，
that 在从句中作主语。
【读文清障】
①spare [生义]vt. 使幸免；使逃脱
②hit vi.& vt.攻击，袭击；打击，危害 n.打，击；受欢迎的人
（或事物）
③injure vt.伤害，使受伤；损害
injured adj.受伤的
injury n.伤害；损害
④disaster n.灾难，灾害；彻底失败
disastrous adj.灾难性的
⑤at large 整个，全部
　　[3]Alice Brown， head teacher at Falmont Primary School， was
teaching when the floor began to shake. Her students’ reaction⑥ was
quick and correct — they moved under their desks， head first， and held
on to⑦ the legs of the desks.[4]At the same time， Miss Brown quickly
opened the classroom door， in case⑧ it became damaged during the
shaking and could not open.[5]There were loud crashes⑨ of glass
breaking and things falling to the ground， but the students remained still
and waited calmly and quietly.
　　[3]本句为sb was doing ... when ...句型，表示“某人正在
做……，这时（突然）……”，when用作并列连词，when后的分句
用一般过去时。其中head teacher at Falmont Primary School作Alice
Brown的同位语。
　　[4]句中in case引导目的状语从句，意为“以防，以免”。
　　[5]本句是but连接的并列句。前一个分句中of glass breaking and
things falling to the ground是介词短语作后置定语；glass breaking和
things falling to the ground是动词-ing形式的复合结构。

Girl saves 100 from tsunami
　　 By Jessie Cable
　　 21 December
　　[8]NEWDALE—On 20 December， a series of huge waves
caused by an undersea earthquake raced across the ocean near Goldshore
and left thousands dead.[9]Goldshore Beach was the only local beach to
survive the disaster without any loss of life.A 10-year-old girl， Sabrina
Andron， helped around 100 people escape danger with her knowledge of
tsunamis.
　　[8]过去分词短语caused by ...earthquake作后置定语，修饰名词
短语a series of huge waves；left thousands dead是“leave＋宾语＋宾语
补足语”结构。
　　[9]句中beach由the only修饰，故其后用动词不定式短语to
survive ...of life作后置定语。
tsunami n.海啸
a series of 一系列
[同义]a range of
race vt.& vi.赛跑；比赛；快速移动；快速运转
race across 急速横渡，急速穿越
　　The day began like any other on Goldshore Beach.[10]People were
walking， running or simply sitting on the sandy beach， enjoying the
warm sea air and the soft wind that brushed their hair.Sabrina was one of
the happy tourists until she noticed something odd .[11]“The water was
like the bubbles on the top of a beer，” she later explained.“It
wasn’t calm and it wasn’t going in and then out.It was just coming in
and in and in.” Sabrina had just learnt about tsunamis in a Geography
lesson.[12] It immediately occurred to her that these were signs of an
approaching tsunami .
　　[10]本句用并列结构walking， running or simply sitting ...描写
了平常的一天游客们在海边悠闲、舒适的状态，与下文中海啸来临
前的不平常形成强烈对比；enjoying ...their hair 为动词-ing形式短语
作伴随状语；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词the soft wind。
　　[11]本句使用了明喻的修辞手法，将海水（water）的状态比喻
成（like）啤酒表面的泡沫（the bubbles on the top of a beer），生动
形象。
　　[12]It occurred to sb that ...表示“某人突然想到……”，其
中，It 为形式主语，真正的主语是that引导的从句。
odd adj.奇怪的，怪异的；偶尔的；不成对的
[同义]strange， unusual
[反义]normal， regular
bubble n.泡沫，泡，气泡
occur vi.发生，出现；存在于
occur to 被想到，浮现在脑中
it occurs to sb that ...某人突然意识到……
an approaching tsunami 一场即将到来的海啸
　　Sabrina was frightened， but she soon kept her head .She warned
her parents of the danger， though at first they just thought she was
joking.[13]However， Sabrina was certain that a terrible disaster was on
its way and kept asking her parents to talk to a safety officer.To her great
relief ， the officer immediately realized the coming danger.The beach
was rapidly cleared of people， just before the huge waves crashed into
the coast.
　　[13]句中was certain that ...和kept asking ...是并列谓语；that a
terrible disaster was on its way是that引导的宾语从句。
keep one’s head （在困境中）保持冷静
relief n.宽慰，轻松；减轻，消除；救济
to one’s great relief 使某人大为宽慰的是
clear ...of sb 使某人离开
be cleared of 被清除；撤走；清空
clear up 清理；消除；（天气）放晴

弗尔蒙特发生地震　小学生成功逃生
　　 雷蒙德·特兰
　　 3月18日
　　弗尔蒙特——3月17日下午2：27，一场地震袭击了弗尔蒙特县，
弗尔蒙特小学476名学生和36名教师成功逃生。尽管目前整个灾区的
伤亡数字是7人死亡，200多人受伤，但（在这所学校）只有5名学生
受了轻伤。
　　弗尔蒙特小学校长艾丽斯·布朗当时正在授课，突然地面开始晃
动。她的学生们反应迅速、正确——他们头朝里， 爬到课桌下面，并
紧紧抓住桌腿。与此同时，布朗女士立刻打开教室门，以防门在震动
中损坏打不开。尽管玻璃破碎和物体落地发出阵阵巨响，但是学生们
仍然一动不动，沉着安静地等待着。
　　晃动一停止，布朗女士立即意识到这是全班逃生的最好时机。她
示意学生们抱着头，排好队，有序离开教室。1分20秒内，全班下楼
梯，跑到了操场上。很快，其他班的学生也赶到了。点名确认所有人
都安然无恙后，他们才放松下来，笑啊，哭啊，互相拥抱着。
　　“我们每年进行两次地震安全程序演练，”布朗女士说，“因此
在地震时，孩子们都十分镇定，能够保护好自己。”
女孩拯救百人免遭海啸袭击
　　杰西·凯布尔
12月21日
　　纽代尔——12月20日，由海底地震引起的一排排巨浪急速冲过金
海岸附近的海面，造成数千人死亡。金海岸海滩是当地唯一一个在此
次灾难中没有任何人员损失的海滩。一个10岁的女孩，萨布丽娜·安
德龙，利用自己掌握的海啸知识帮助大约100人脱险。
　　那天刚开始，金海岸海滩上与往常一样。人们在散步、晨跑，或
者就是坐在沙滩上，享受着温暖的海边空气和拂过发际的微风。萨布
丽娜是这些快乐的游客中的一个，直到她注意到了一些奇怪的现象。
“海水像啤酒表面的泡沫一样，” 她后来解释说，“不平静，也没有
潮来潮去。海水只是一个劲儿地涌过来，涌过来，再涌过来。”萨布
丽娜刚在一节地理课上学习了有关海啸的知识。她立刻意识到这些是
海啸来临的征兆。
　　 萨布丽娜吓坏了，不过她很快冷静下来。她提醒父母有危险，但
一开始他们只当她是在开玩笑。不过，萨布丽娜确信，一场可怕的灾
难正在逼近，于是便不停地让父母去和安全员谈一谈。使她大为宽慰
的是，这名安全员立即意识到了即将到来的危险。就在巨浪拍岸的前
一刻，海滩上的人迅速疏散一空。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
　　（2024·江苏徐州高一期中）Earthquake forecasting is one of the
most ancient skills known to mankind.From ancient Greece to the present
day， countless scientists have tried to develop tools to predict
earthquakes.Their attempts usually focused on searching for reliable
forerunners of forthcoming quakes.
　　However， there are many reasons why predicting quakes is so
hard.“We don’t understand some basic physics of earthquakes，” said
Egill， a research professor at the California Institute of Technology.
Scientists have also attempted to create mathematical models of movement， but precisely predicting earthquakes would require great mapping and analysis of the Earth’s crust.Other challenges include a lack of data on the early warning signs， given that these warning signs are not yet entirely understood.Actually， real earthquake prediction is very similar to the diagnosis of potential human illnesses based on observing and analyzing each patient’s signs and symptoms.As it turns out， quake prediction is extremely difficult.
　　Many sources show that earthquake forecasting was a recognized
science in ancient Greece.Ancient Greeks lived very close to nature and
were able to detect unusual phenomena and forecast earthquakes.The first
known forecast was made by Pherecydes of Syros about 2，500 years
ago： He made it as he scooped water from a well and noticed that usually
very clean water had suddenly become muddy.Indeed， an earthquake
occurred two days later， making Pherecydes famous.Nowadays，
seismic （地震的） and remote-sensing methods are considered to have
the greatest potential in terms of solving the earthquake prediction
problem.
　　Currently， Terra Seismic， an earthquake forecasting company，
can identify a forthcoming earthquake with a high level of confidence.
Generally， Terra Seismic does not promise to predict a quake if the earthquake’s epicentre is located beyond a depth of 40km.Fortunately， such quakes are almost always harmless， since the quake’s energy reduces before reaching the Earth’s surface.“Scientists have tried every possible method to try to predict earthquakes，” Bruneau， an expert in earthquake engineering， said.“Nobody has been able to crack it and make a believable prediction.”

出可信的预测。由此推断，在第四段中布鲁诺的意思是科学家没有
可靠的方法来预测地震。
4. What is the main idea of the passage？（　　）
A. The reasons for earthquake forecasting.
B. The history of earthquake forecasting.
C. The methods of earthquake forecasting.
D. The future of earthquake forecasting.

　　Rivers are very important.Humans rely on them for food and
water.But rivers can destroy things， too.They can flood， or rise over
their banks， making the water run into the nearby land.Floods can also
kill humans and wildlife.However， floods are not always bad.Some
ecosystems need them every once in a while.
　　Flooding can not only drown animals but also destroy habitats.For
example， a flood in India in 2012 killed many one-horned
rhinos.Floodwaters can pick up dirt from riverbanks， which makes the
water dirty.Too much dirt will clog rivers and streams， preventing the
river from flowing.Sometimes floodwaters can carry pollution to the sea
and harm marine life.In addition， floodwaters can carry disease，
including hepatitis A and cholera.
　　However， not everything about floods is bad.Sometimes they bring
new life to ecosystems.Floodwaters carry nutrients to the nearby
land.Over time， the water dries up and leaves behind particles （微粒）
of dirt and mud.The particles are called sediment （沉淀物） which can
be good due to its ability to improve the dirt and help plants grow.Floods
are important to some animals as well.For instance， some animals see
floods as a sign that it is time to mate or migrate.Floods leave sediment on
river beds where baby fish can grow and carry nutrients for small animals
in the water to eat.Moreover， in dry seasons， water might dry up， but
floods help refill the wetlands， keeping the ecosystem going.
　　Floods are a part of nature.They can destroy living things and the
environment.But some ecosystems need floods to survive.

系统既有坏处也有好处。
5. What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word “clog” in
Paragraph 2？（　　）
A. Become. B. Pollute.
C. Block. D. Develop.
解析：　词义猜测题。根据第二段中Floodwaters can pick up dirt
from riverbanks， which makes the water dirty.以及画线词后的
preventing the river from flowing可知，洪水会沿途吸收泥土，而太
多的泥土会堵塞河道，使河水无法流淌。由此可推测，画线词clog
意为“堵塞”，与block意思相近。
6. How do floods help ecosystems？（　　）
A. Nutrients carried by floods can make soil richer.
B. Floods make all the animals migrate more easily.
C. Tiny fish going with floods feed some animals.
D. Floods can improve the dirt and help plants grow.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第三段第三至五句可知，洪水沿途所
携带的营养物质可以使土壤更丰富，从而更好地改善生态系统。
7. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3？（　　）
A. The way in which floods feed animals.
B. The benefits of floods to ecosystems.
C. An effective means of improving soil.
D. The reason for people’s appreciating floods.
解析：　段落大意题。根据第三段主旨句However， not
everything about floods is bad.Sometimes they bring new life to
ecosystems.可知，第三段主要讲的是洪水对生态系统的好处。
8. What’s the best title for this article？（　　）
A. Many Effects of Flooding
B. The Secret of Flooding
C. Floods： Everything Is So Bad
D. Floods： A Part of Nature
解析：　标题归纳题。文章前两段主要讲洪水对生态系统不利的
方面，第三段主要讲洪水对生态系统的益处，最后一段总结全文，
点明主题——洪水是大自然的一部分。因此，D项（洪水：大自然
的一部分）为文章最佳标题。
C
　　For many of the servicemen and women who’ve bravely served in
war zones， leaving the horrors of the battlefield behind isn’t as simple
as just hanging up their uniforms when they get home.
　　Post-traumatic stress disorder （PTSD） includes a wide range of
symptoms （症状）.When Tyler Skluzacek， son of military veteran
（老兵） Patrick Skluzacek saw his father’s life unravel as the result of
repeated disabling nightmares， he knew he had to do something about it.
　　In 2015， when Tyler， then a senior at Macalester College，
learned of an upcoming computer programming “hackathon” event in
Washington， DC focused on developing apps to help people like his
dad， he was determined to participate.
　　Tyler and his team came up with the “anti-night-terror” smartwatch
app’s model.The program identifies night-time disturbances by
monitoring the wearer’s heart rate and movements.Before the nightmare
can take hold， the app delivers a gentle intervention （similar to a
comforting touch） to reset the wearer’s sleep pattern.
　　Adjusting the correct vibration （振动） level for the watch proved
to be a challenge.It had to deliver “just enough stimulus （刺激） to pull
them out of the deep REM cycle and allow the sleep to continue
unaffected，” Tyler told NPR.
　　With his dad serving as a volunteer guinea pig， Tyler continued to
improve his creation until it was pretty much perfect.Once the problems
were worked out and the app was performing as intended， both father and
son were floored by the immediate difference it made in Patrick’s
life.“It was night and day when I put that watch on and it started
working，” Patrick said.The vibrations worked like “little miracles”.
　　Tyler， now a graduate student in computer science at the University
of Chicago， realized the potential for the “little miracles” he’d
created to help other PTSD sufferers.To put his life-changing app into
widespread distribution， he sold the rights to an investor.
　　The technology （marketed under the brand name NightWare）
should be accessible with a doctor’s recommendation — transforming
nightmares into sweeter dreams and bringing hard-earned rest to deserving
military veterans everywhere — in the near future.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。在校大学生发明了可以改善睡眠
质量的APP，来帮助PTSD患者。

9. What does the underlined word “unravel” in Paragraph 2 mean？
（　　）
A. Continue.
B. Collapse.
C. Take a different direction.
D. Become more complicated.
解析：　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的as the result of repeated
disabling nightmares， he knew he had to do something about it以及下
文内容可知，Tyler的父亲睡眠不好，这导致他的生活变得混乱、
崩溃。故画线词unravel与collapse意思相近。
10. How does the smartwatch app help its users？（　　）
A. By making them sleep well.
B. By driving them to exercise regularly.
C. By helping them forget terrible experiences.
D. By reporting their health conditions to doctors.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第四段第一句和最后一句以及第五
段中It ...allow the sleep to continue unaffected可知，smartwatch
app帮助使用者有一个好的睡眠。
11. What contribution did Patrick make when Tyler developed the app？
（　　）
A. Convincing other veterans to participate in the research.
B. Assisting in recording and analyzing research data.
C. Providing financial support.
D. Serving as a test subject.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第六段可知，在开发和测试这个应
用程序时，Patrick担任了一个测试对象的角色。
12. What can we expect of Tyler’s invention in the future？（　　）
A. It’ll reach consumers soon.
B. It’ll be sold at a low price.
C. It’ll be donated to PTSD patients.
D. It’ll take the place of traditional watches.
解析：　细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，Tyler发明的应
用技术将可以通过处方获得，很快会被投入市场。

【即时演练】
　　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。
　　My best friend Lily and I met in high school.Ever since then， we
had spent New Year’s Eve together.We’d watch the New Year’s
celebration in Times Square together on TV， a world-renowned tradition
for millions to welcome the new year.Every year， thousands of people
will gather in Times Square in New York in person on New Year’s Eve
counting down to the new year， with celebrations and performances after
midnight.And we’d always say that one day we should go there ourselves.
　　Then we both went to college.Struggling through exams and
schoolwork， we had little time to meet up.We missed each other terribly
and decided it was time to finally go to New York ourselves， to be
present at the New Year’s celebration， and to do something fun together.
　　We worked out our schedule， bought tickets for everything and，
most importantly， planned how to survive the long hours of waiting in the
biting cold before the celebration—we wanted the best spot possible， and
there’s only so much space， so we had no choice but to get to the Times
Square early.
　　When the big day finally arrived， it became snowy and colder than
any cold we had ever experienced.Actually it was one of the coldest New
Year’s Eves on record.Everyone thought we were going to back out.
　　But we didn’t.We didn’t make it that far to back out.
　　We woke up and set off early.And， of course， we did freeze along
the way， but we kept cheering each other up.Once we got there， we
found our way to the line pretty quickly， considering everyone else was
pushing their way in the same direction.We got in line and waited to
finally get into our area in the Times Square， which thankfully was pretty
spacious and close to the stage.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Halfway through the day， my friend and I couldn’t feel our toes. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
“Three， two， one.Happy New Year！” we screamed the words as loud as possible. 　　　　　　
　　　 　 　　　　　　 　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　　 　
　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　　 　
　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　 　 　
参考范文：
　　Halfway through the day， my friend and I couldn’t feel our
toes.The icy wind started howling， cutting my face like a sharp
knife.We sat down on the ground in Times Square， took off each
other’s shoes， and shoved in some hand-warmers.We ate cheese sticks
covered in turkey， jumped up and down， and did pretty much anything
we could think of to stay warm.The temperature kept dropping， but our
spirits never did， at least not enough to make us actually want to
leave.We joked and laughed， waiting for the magic moment.
　　“Three， two， one.Happy New Year！” we screamed the words
as loud as possible.The clock struck midnight！ Before we knew it，
performers were singing， and we were singing along excitedly.With the
crowd cheering in a loud collective voice， we finally understood what it
felt like to be present at the celebration in person， in such a state of joy，
with tens of thousands of people from all over the world.Lily leaned on
my shoulder with happiness on her face.Whatever exhaustion and cold
we’d previously felt was forgotten， and we knew we had done
something amazing together.

　　Somalia， Kenya， and now Ethiopia are warning of a serious
drought that affects millions of people in Eastern Africa.In Ethiopia’s
Somali area， people have seen the failures of what should have been
three straight rainy seasons.Droughts do come and go over the
years.However， the lack of rainfall has led to the driest conditions in 40
years in parts of Somalia and Ethiopia.
　　UNICEF is the United Nations’ children’s agency.Local Zaynab
Wali told a visiting team with UNICEF that she and her seven children had
never seen a drought like this.She said the government gave out food for
animals during the last drought five years ago.“This time， we even
don’t have enough food for our family.”
　　Children walk among the bodies of dead animals，which died from
lack of food and energy.Somalia Consortium works to improve
international aid for Somalia.It said in a separate statement that in
Somalia， more than 7 million people need emergency help.It is asking
international organizations to give much more to the country.
　　“We are just one month into the long dry season， and I have
already lost 25 goats and sheep，” Hafsa Bedel in Ethiopia’s Somali
area told UNICEF. She also lost four camels， a large desert animal， as
well.She said there was nowhere for her animals to eat.She added that
there was not enough food for her own family， including her six
children.
　　UNICEF thinks that more than 150，000 children in such areas of
Ethiopia have dropped out of school.They are needed to help find the
limited amount of water and help their families with other work.
　　One young boy was seen supporting an animal，a donkey.The
donkey was once important for carrying goods.But now， it had become
too weak to walk on its own.

Wali提到在上次的干旱中，政府甚至为动物分发食物，而在这
次干旱中她和家人的食物都短缺，言外之意是政府这次的安排
与上次相比是很不妥的。由此推断，她是想表达她对于这次干
旱政府的安排的失望。

解析：　段落大意题。根据最后一段可知，驴现在虚弱得都不能
自己走路了，更别谈运货了，结合上文可知，这是因干旱而导致动
物没有食物吃所造成的。故本段主要想告诉我们干旱的严重性。
4. Which is the most suitable title for the text？（　　）
A. Drought in Eastern Africa Leaves Animals in Danger
B. UN Officials Care for Children Affected by Drought
C. Millions Face Risk as Drought Affects Eastern Africa
D. Drought Makes People of Eastern Africa Leave Their Home
解析：　标题归纳题。根据文章第一句可知，索马里、肯尼亚和
埃塞俄比亚都警告说，东非出现严重干旱，影响数百万人，后面段
落对这次干旱的情况作了具体介绍。由此可知，本文是围绕“干旱
影响东非，使数百万人面临风险”这一话题进行阐述的。因此，C
项最适合作文章标题。

　　It was 8 June 1816 and it was early summer in Vermont， US. Yet，
a wild winter snow-storm was going on.Nearly a foot of snow covered the
fields which had been planted crops only weeks before.This storm would
kill all of the crops.At the time， people struggled to understand what had
caused the weather to change so wildly.It is only now，more than 200
years later， that scientists have finally solved the mystery.The cause of
the extreme weather was an event that took place a year earlier and 10，
000 miles away.It all started with a volcano called Mount Tambora.
　　Mount Tambora sits on the island of Sumbawa， a beautiful land with
rushing streams， gentle hills， and thick jungles， in Indonesia.Nobody
had any reason to think the peaceful mountain was in fact a volcano.It had
been asleep for centuries， but on 5 April 1815， Tambora woke up.
　　The first eruption shook the island and sent up streams of fire and
ash.But that was nothing compared with what would come five days
later， on 10 April.The volcano exploded with a huge cloud of gas， fire
and ash shot high into the sky.The day turned midnight black， but the
mountain turned red as rivers of lava （岩浆） flowed down the
mountain.
　　The eruption went on for more than three days，which instantly
killed at least 12，000 people living on and around Mount Tambora.Ash
and lava ruined the island’s soil and poisoned its rivers and streams.Rice
fields were destroyed.No fruits or vegetables would grow.
　　There were no fish to catch； almost every animal had been
killed.The eruption of Tambora in 1815 was the deadliest and most
powerful volcanic eruption in human history.

　　Some of the most attractive pictures to come out of the Alaska
earthquake are the photos that show slope （斜坡） failures， in which
parts of formerly solid hills caved in， tore or let loose.And if there
happened to be a road or building on top of the slopes that failed， the
result was horrible.
　　Slopes can fail without earthquakes， as the result of pouring rain or
weathering.But the shaking caused by a quake — particularly a large one
like what occurred near Anchorage on Friday — can either speed up the
process or create entirely new failures that wouldn’t have other-wise
happened.
　　Several slope failures were documented in the Anchorage area in the
hours after the earthquake on Friday， the most interesting of which was
on Vine Road southwest of Wasilla.It’s as if someone came along with a
large destroying ball and dropped it on Vine Road， which wrinkled like a
broken egg.
　　Scientists seemed surprised at how many slope failures occurred as a
result of the 7.0-magnitude （震级） quake.The center of the quake was
deep， at 27 miles below the surface — a key reason why the damage in
Anchorage was relatively light.Such an earthquake would be expected to
produce shaking over a large area， but probably with reasonably modest
top ground accelerations， Friday’s earthquake would certainly be felt，
but the surface of Earth wouldn’t be moving badly enough to produce
widespread landslides.
　　Photos from Alaska show a lot of lateral （横向的） spread， in
which the ground tears open.Whatever is on top of the ground at the place
it tears in half is also torn in half afterwards， like highways or
buildings.The buildings surrounding the spread are also at risk of damage
because of the force of the ground spreading out away from the
tear.There’s also documentation of block spread，in which part of the
ground breaks off a hill and slides away mostly perfect.

　　The European Space Agency （ESA） is working with NASA to
create a shared time system for the moon.
　　There hasn’t been a need for the moon to have its own time.Each
country that sent a mission （太空飞行任务） to the moon simply used
its own time system.But now， lots of lunar missions from different
countries are planned for the coming years.These missions will need to
communicate with each other.
　　On Earth， most countries base their times on Coordinated Universal Time （UTC）.For example， the eastern United States is five hours behind UTC. Much of Europe and Africa is one hour ahead.To keep things simple and fair， the International Space Station （ISS） also uses UTC. Using UTC on the moon is one option.Space agencies could send a UTC time signal to the moon， just like they do with the ISS.
　　But there are some problems with the idea.If the UTC time signal
failed， systems that depended on it could also fail.Another problem with
using UTC is that the moon’s days are very different from Earth
days.One full day on the moon lasts about 29.5 Earth days.What makes
the problem especially tricky is that moon time really is different.Gravity
affects how quickly time passes.Because the moon has about 1/6 of the
Earth’s gravity， clocks there would run faster.
　　One of the main reasons ESA and NASA want to decide on a moon
time isn’t just for people， but for machines.The space agencies will be
sending lots of satellites to the moon over the next few years.The goal is to
use the satellites to create a lunar GPS， so that astronauts and rovers （探
测器） can figure out where they are instantly.But for a GPS system to
work， the satellites must have very precise （精确的） timing.

12. Why does the moon need to have its own time？（　　）
A. To complete different lunar missions smoothly.
B. To help people know the time when on the moon.
C. To make satellites sent to the moon work well.
D. To help people explore other planets.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第二段中的But now， lots of lunar
missions from different countries are planned for the coming
years.These missions will need to communicate with each other.可
知，创建月球共享时间系统的目的是让不同国家的月球任务能顺
利地沟通交流。
13. What can we learn about UTC？（　　）
A. Italy is five hours behind UTC.
B. The clocks on the ISS are set to UTC.
C. The western US is one hour ahead of UTC.
D. Most countries use UTC while doing lunar missions.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第三段中的the International Space
Station （ISS） also uses UTC ...Space agencies could send a UTC
time signal to the moon， just like they do with the ISS. 可知，在国
际空间站（ISS）中，人们使用协调世界时（UTC）。
14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about？（　　）
A. The necessity of studying gravity on the moon.
B. How a shared system on Earth is developed.
C. Why UTC may not be used on the moon.
D. The ways to improve UTC.
解析：　段落大意题。第四段中指出，在月球上使用UTC难点
有二：一是UTC信号可能会接收不成功，导致整个系统瘫痪；二
是月球上的一天与地球上的一天时间长短不同，受重力影响，月
球上的时间流逝速度比地球上的快。故本段主要说明了为何UTC
在月球上可能不可行。
15. The author mentions satellites in the last paragraph to 　　　　.
（　　）
A. show the importance of lunar time
B. describe the history of lunar missions
C. discuss the future of lunar exploration
D. stress the necessity to create a lunar GPS
解析：　推理判断题。最后一段首先指出欧洲航天局和美国航
空航天局想要创建月球时间不仅是为了人，也是为了机器；随后
指出航天局未来几年会向月球发射大量人造卫星，旨在建立月球
定位系统，来帮助航天员和探测器确定位置；最后指出该定位系
统的运转需要人造卫星有非常精确的定时。由此推知，最后一段
提及人造卫星是为了表明月球时间的重要性。
