Yosemite National Park
Yosemite National Park is located in California, USA.It is surrounded by Sierra National Forest to the southeast and Stanislaus National Forest to the northwest. The National Park Service manages this park, which covers 759,620 acres in four counties: Tuolumne, Mariposa, Mono, and Madera. In 1984, it was recognized as a World Heritage Site because of its granite cliffs (花岗岩峭壁), waterfalls, clear streams, thick forest, lakes, mountains, and bio-diversity. About 95 percent of the park is wild and untouched, making it one of the largest natural habitats in the Sierra Nevada.
Geography
The park’s landscape is mostly made of granite and older rocks. Around 10 million years ago, the Sierra Nevada mountains rose and tilted, which increased the steepness of stream and river beds, forming deep, narrow canyons. One million years ago, glaciers (冰川) formed in higher areas and moved down, carving the U-shaped Yosemite Valley.
History
European American settlers first entered the valley in 1851.Other travelers entered earlier, but James D.Savage is credited with discovering the area that became Yosemite National Park. Native Americans had lived in the area for nearly 4,000 years, although humans may have first visited as long as 8,000 to 10,000 years ago.
Yosemite played an important role in the idea of national parks. Galen Clark and others worked hard to protect Yosemite Valley, leading to President Abraham Lincoln signing the Yosemite Grant in 1864, which preserved the land. In 1890, John Muir led a successful movement, helping to establish Yosemite Valley and its surrounding areas as a National Park. Yosemite draws about four million visitors each year. Most visitors spend the majority of their time in the valley’s seven square miles.
21.What makes Yosemite National Park listed as a World Heritage Site
A.Its exploration history. B.Its extremely large area.
C.Its convenient location. D.Its rich natural resources.
22.What is the percentage of Yosemite National Park remaining a wilderness
A.About 50%. B.About 75%.
C.About 85%. D.About 95%.
23.Who discovered Yosemite Valley according to the text
A.John Muir. B.Galen Clark.
C.James D.Savage. D.Abraham Lincoln.

Here on the side of Mount Everest, Kaji Bista has spent a decade keeping a lonely watch over a largely abandoned scientific laboratory.He expects the world’s highest research station to once again come to life.
The laboratory opened in 1990 and for more than 2 decades, it served as a special spot for scientists seeking to keep an eye on changing conditions on Earth’s tallest mountain. In 2015, shifting scientific priorities (优先考虑的事) cost the lab most of its funding, and its 15-person staff were reduced to just Bista. Now, the tall, soft-spoken man spends 10 months a year working to keep the aging facility functioning. “My emotional attachment to the lab... keeps me going,” he said.
Bista began working at the station in 2006.He states that it was originally established to settle a disagreement between Italian and U.S. mountaineers over whether Everest or K2 was the world’s tallest. Researchers used GPS measurements to prove Everest was taller, as the Italian climbers insisted. That work finally evolved into a plan, supported by the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) and the Nepal Academy of Science and Technology (NAST), to develop a facility that could do much more.
Climate scientist Sudeep Thakuri says that he is grateful the lab has played an important role in not only his own studies of the region’s glaciers (冰川), but also in studies of regional biodiversity, the long-range transport of pollutants, etc. In response to the appeal of scientists, Suresh Kumar Dhungel a senior scientist at NAST, reports discussions with CNR officials have recently resulted in moves to resume laboratory operations. And Agostino Da Polenza, president of Ev-K2-CNR, says he is working to regenerate lab programs. And his group plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign later to raise more money.
Bista does his best to repair those aging instruments. “When I face any problem, I turn to experts in Italy and then act accordingly,” he said. But sometimes it can take months for spare parts to arrive. “I am helpless in this case,” he said. Yet, Bista hasn’t lost hope. “This laboratory will soon be renovated (整修),” he said. “This is my belief.”
24.What can we infer about the research station
A.It has set off a disagreement.
B.It has been lightly regarded for years.
C.It involves high repair costs.
D.It has been fully functioning for years.
25.What was the station originally intended for
A.Conducting a geographic survey.
B.Providing accommodation for mountain climbers.
C.Studying the effect of human activities on Everest.
D.Establishing a harmonious relationship between Italy and America.
26.What does the underlined word “resume” in paragraph 4 mean
A.Prevent. B.Restore.
C.Stop. D.Abandon.
27.What challenge is Bista facing in his work
A.Delays in transporting the repair parts.
B.Conflicts between research team members.
C.Pressure from administrative management.
D.Lack of timely guidance from professionals.

During the 1960s, while researching the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen encountered a mystery that, surprisingly, had never bothered anyone before: he was unable to locate the park’s volcano. It had been well-established for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in nature—that’s what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.
Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, only think of the classic cone (圆锥体) shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting lava (岩浆) piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, with a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known sort of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These volcanoes are so powerful that they explode in one large crack, leaving a huge hole called a caldera. Yellowstone clearly belonged to this second sort, but Christiansen couldn’t find the caldera anywhere.
Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice enlargement for one of the visitors’ centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park—2.2 million acres—was a caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across—much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.
28.What confused Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone
A.Its steamy features.
B.Its geographic diversity.
C.The mystery of its history.
D.The location of its volcano.
29.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.The types of volcanoes.
B.The process of lava eruption.
C.The impact of volcano forming.
D.The experience of a Mexican farmer.
30.What made it difficult for people to find the caldera
A.The caldera’s size. B.NASA’s equipment.
C.Visitors’ carelessness. D.Yellowstone’s history.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Yellowstone’s Hidden Treasure.
B.The Magical Birth of Yellowstone’s Volcano.
C.Yellowstone’s Hidden Caldera Revealed by NASA.
D.The Discovery of Yellowstone’s Missing Mountain.

Danakil Depression is an extremely hot,bone-dry,lava-spewing hellhole with lakes of acid.Somehow,there’s still life.
It’s nicknamed the “Gateway to Hell”,and it’s the hottest place on Earth,with temperatures recorded as high as 131 degrees Fahrenheit,and that’s not even taking into account the heat coming from the ground and lava-spewing volcanoes.　36　 Oh,and the lakes are filled with acid.
　37　 Right
Unbelievably,researchers looking for life in this barren hellscape(地狱) have found evidence that two extremophile types of bacteria have made their home in the Danakil Depression,reports the BBC.　38　
It was no small feat(功绩) for researchers to make the discovery.There’s the extreme heat and the threat of slipping into a hot pool of acid,sure.But spending any time in Danakil also requires wearing gas masks due to the clouds of harmful gas.　39　
Organisms(生物) were found in two separate locations,one of which was an acidic pool with a zero pH,a new extremophile record.It’s the most acidic place where life has been found anywhere on Earth.In fact,it’s such an extreme place that only referring to these organisms as “extremophiles” doesn’t go far enough.
　40　 You could make the case that Danakil is a harder place to live than on Mars or Jupiter’s moon Europa,for instance.Scientists hope that by studying extremophiles here on Earth,we might get a glimpse at how life looks elsewhere in the solar system.
A.Surely,nothing survives here.
B.Somehow,life has found a way.
C.To make matters worse,it rarely rains.
D.It is also one of the lowest places on the planet.
E.The discovery shows well for the prospect (前景) of finding life on other worlds.
F.It took years of planning before researchers felt it was safe enough to brave sample collection.
G.It has developed as a result of Africa and Asia moving apart,causing rifting and volcanic activity.

I love digging in the back garden. Sometimes, I’d dig for pottery and stuff, but I’ve always wanted to find a fossil (化石). I like finding out about the past. At school, my favourite subject is history. I’ve been watching Andy’s Prehistoric Adventures since I was three. I knew I had a good chance of finding a fossil, because my house was built on a muddy, limestone substrate (石灰岩基质), in Walsall, which means millions of years ago, my garden wasn’t my garden at all—it was a coral reef (珊瑚礁).
On 22 March, it was a sunny day. I came back from school. I asked Dad if I could dig in my favourite spot by the yellow bush near our house, where we had planted potatoes and onions, but he told me not to, because he’d just moved a tree there and it was establishing roots. I went to the back garden instead, taking Dad’s old brown wooden garden tools. I dug a big hole, about a foot deep, which didn’t take very long, where I found a ball of mud with something pointy sticking out the top. I ran into the kitchen screaming. I was so excited. I knew it was a fossil.
At first, I thought it might be a deer’s tooth or a goat’s claw. When Dad washed the mud off, we saw that it had lots of bumpy, wavy lines; we both thought it looked like one of the sea anemones, from the fish tank in his office, but with a horn(触角). Dad sent a video to the Fossil Finds UK Facebook group. A man calling himself an archaeologist (考古学家) replied saying it had the markings of a horn coral from the Palaeozoic era, which is the very beginnings of life on Earth. I had found one of the oldest fossils in England.
We looked in my books and online for more information. We typed our postcode into a British Geology Survey search where you can find out what you’re standing on—ours is the oldest substrate in the area, with lots of clay and limestone, but it’s unusual to find anything so close to the surface. Experts told us that my horn coral lived between 415 million and 480 million years ago. There weren’t even proper fish or sharks then.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Before the horn coral, the only fossils I was familiar with were shark teeth that Dad got me.　　　　　　　　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　When I grow up, I want to be an archaeologist.

W:Good morning,sir.What can I do for you
M:Can you tell me something about your Hz-2023
W:Certainly.(12) Hz-2023 is one of the new types of cars we produce this year.(10) Compared with Hz-2022,it burns 30% less gas,but can go 20 miles faster per hour.
M:That’s interesting.How about the space in it
W:Well,by using new material,(11) we have managed to make the seats thinner but stronger and more comfortable.Though it’s the same size as Hz-2022,you will feel there is more space in it.
M:That’s fine.I heard you have changed the height of the car.Why have you done that
W:It’s like this,sir.We have made a new type which is made of less material but it’s of better quality.It’s about one centimeter thinner than the old one and that leads to the change of the height.
M:I see.Thank you for this information,madam.

In Hebei Province lies a vast forest.This Green Great Wall reduces sandstorms greatly.But more than half a century ago,it was nothing but wildness.Thanks to a tree,called “a tree of merit”,we have this Green Great Wall today.Half a century ago,there was only one tree in this desert.Without it,there would have been no Saihanba.Saihanba is a combination of Chinese and Mongolian,meaning “beautiful highlands”.(17) Until the Qing Dynasty,it was a royal hunting land because of its cool weather in summer.However,(18) the area turned into a desert by the end of the Qing Dynasty due to forest fires,deforestation and constant wars.Over 350 foresters were first sent to this area to fight with the desert as early as the 1960s.Their duty was to rebuild a forest in Saihanba,but nobody knew if the goal was realistic.(19) It was not until they found a 200-year-old tree swaying alone in the wind that their hope was raised.If one tree can survive here,so can millions of trees.After decades of hard work,the wasteland is now a vast forest covering about 93,000 hectares.(20)In 2017,the foresters working the land received a UN environment award for their great contributions to a greener world.

Yosemite National Park
Yosemite National Park is located in California, USA.It is surrounded by Sierra National Forest to the southeast and Stanislaus National Forest to the northwest. The National Park Service manages this park, which covers 759,620 acres in four counties: Tuolumne, Mariposa, Mono, and Madera. In 1984, it was recognized as a World Heritage Site because of its granite cliffs (花岗岩峭壁), waterfalls, clear streams, thick forest, lakes, mountains, and bio-diversity. About 95 percent of the park is wild and untouched, making it one of the largest natural habitats in the Sierra Nevada.
Geography
The park’s landscape is mostly made of granite and older rocks. Around 10 million years ago, the Sierra Nevada mountains rose and tilted, which increased the steepness of stream and river beds, forming deep, narrow canyons. One million years ago, glaciers (冰川) formed in higher areas and moved down, carving the U-shaped Yosemite Valley.
History
European American settlers first entered the valley in 1851.Other travelers entered earlier, but James D.Savage is credited with discovering the area that became Yosemite National Park. Native Americans had lived in the area for nearly 4,000 years, although humans may have first visited as long as 8,000 to 10,000 years ago.
Yosemite played an important role in the idea of national parks. Galen Clark and others worked hard to protect Yosemite Valley, leading to President Abraham Lincoln signing the Yosemite Grant in 1864, which preserved the land. In 1890, John Muir led a successful movement, helping to establish Yosemite Valley and its surrounding areas as a National Park. Yosemite draws about four million visitors each year. Most visitors spend the majority of their time in the valley’s seven square miles.

Here on the side of Mount Everest, Kaji Bista has spent a decade keeping a lonely watch over a largely abandoned scientific laboratory.He expects the world’s highest research station to once again come to life.
The laboratory opened in 1990 and for more than 2 decades, it served as a special spot for scientists seeking to keep an eye on changing conditions on Earth’s tallest mountain. In 2015, shifting scientific priorities (优先考虑的事) cost the lab most of its funding, and its 15-person staff were reduced to just Bista. Now, the tall, soft-spoken man spends 10 months a year working to keep the aging facility functioning. “My emotional attachment to the lab... keeps me going,” he said.
Bista began working at the station in 2006.He states that it was originally established to settle a disagreement between Italian and U.S. mountaineers over whether Everest or K2 was the world’s tallest. Researchers used GPS measurements to prove Everest was taller, as the Italian climbers insisted. That work finally evolved into a plan, supported by the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) and the Nepal Academy of Science and Technology (NAST), to develop a facility that could do much more.
Climate scientist Sudeep Thakuri says that he is grateful the lab has played an important role in not only his own studies of the region’s glaciers (冰川), but also in studies of regional biodiversity, the long-range transport of pollutants, etc. In response to the appeal of scientists, Suresh Kumar Dhungel a senior scientist at NAST, reports discussions with CNR officials have recently resulted in moves to resume laboratory operations. And Agostino Da Polenza, president of Ev-K2-CNR, says he is working to regenerate lab programs. And his group plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign later to raise more money.
Bista does his best to repair those aging instruments. “When I face any problem, I turn to experts in Italy and then act accordingly,” he said. But sometimes it can take months for spare parts to arrive. “I am helpless in this case,” he said. Yet, Bista hasn’t lost hope. “This laboratory will soon be renovated (整修),” he said. “This is my belief.”

During the 1960s, while researching the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen encountered a mystery that, surprisingly, had never bothered anyone before: he was unable to locate the park’s volcano. It had been well-established for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in nature—that’s what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.
Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, only think of the classic cone (圆锥体) shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting lava (岩浆) piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, with a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known sort of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These volcanoes are so powerful that they explode in one large crack, leaving a huge hole called a caldera. Yellowstone clearly belonged to this second sort, but Christiansen couldn’t find the caldera anywhere.
Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice enlargement for one of the visitors’ centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park—2.2 million acres—was a caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across—much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了二十世纪六十年代Bob Christiansen在研究黄石公园的火山历史时,奇怪地发现到处看不到火山的影子,原来,这儿的火山并不是像我们大部分人想象的那种圆锥体形状的高耸的样子,而是一个巨大的洞,这个洞太大了以至于从地面上的任何地方都看不见。

Danakil Depression is an extremely hot,bone-dry,lava-spewing hellhole with lakes of acid.Somehow,there’s still life.
It’s nicknamed the “Gateway to Hell”,and it’s the hottest place on Earth,with temperatures recorded as high as 131 degrees Fahrenheit,and that’s not even taking into account the heat coming from the ground and lava-spewing volcanoes.　36　 Oh,and the lakes are filled with acid.
　37　 Right
Unbelievably,researchers looking for life in this barren hellscape(地狱) have found evidence that two extremophile types of bacteria have made their home in the Danakil Depression,reports the BBC.　38　
It was no small feat(功绩) for researchers to make the discovery.There’s the extreme heat and the threat of slipping into a hot pool of acid,sure.But spending any time in Danakil also requires wearing gas masks due to the clouds of harmful gas.　39　
Organisms(生物) were found in two separate locations,one of which was an acidic pool with a zero pH,a new extremophile record.It’s the most acidic place where life has been found anywhere on Earth.In fact,it’s such an extreme place that only referring to these organisms as “extremophiles” doesn’t go far enough.
　40　 You could make the case that Danakil is a harder place to live than on Mars or Jupiter’s moon Europa,for instance.Scientists hope that by studying extremophiles here on Earth,we might get a glimpse at how life looks elsewhere in the solar system.
A.Surely,nothing survives here.
B.Somehow,life has found a way.
C.To make matters worse,it rarely rains.
D.It is also one of the lowest places on the planet.
E.The discovery shows well for the prospect (前景) of finding life on other worlds.
F.It took years of planning before researchers felt it was safe enough to brave sample collection.
G.It has developed as a result of Africa and Asia moving apart,causing rifting and volcanic activity.

At present, the take-out industry has become a popular consumption pattern.

64.were destroyed　[考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:多年来,考古学家不断在庞贝和赫库兰尼姆发现了许多热食摊,这两个城镇被维苏威火山的喷发摧毁。destroy在从句中充当谓语,根据主句,应该使用一般过去时,且主语two towns与destroy之间是被动关系,故填were destroyed。]
65.certainly　[考查词性转换。句意:在一个热食摊中,发现了装有一千多枚硬币的布袋,这无疑显示了该场所的受欢迎程度。certain是形容词,需要将其变成副词修饰动词showing,充当状语,故填certainly。]

Dear Peter,
It’s great to hear from you. I feel proud knowing you are interested in Chinese historical figures and you will take part in a character short video production competition to be held in your school. I’d like to recommend a Chinese figure I like.
As for my favourite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty.He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi (Illustrated Treatise on the Maritime Kingdoms), introduced modern technologies and ideas to China, which opened our eyes to the world. In fact, he inspires me to major in English in college to be a bridge between China and the world.
Interested in knowing more I can find you some books! Just let me know. Wish you get a good result in the competition.
Yours,
Li Hua

(2025·镇江高二测试)
I love digging in the back garden. Sometimes, I’d dig for pottery and stuff, but I’ve always wanted to find a fossil (化石). I like finding out about the past. At school, my favourite subject is history. I’ve been watching Andy’s Prehistoric Adventures since I was three. I knew I had a good chance of finding a fossil, because my house was built on a muddy, limestone substrate (石灰岩基质), in Walsall, which means millions of years ago, my garden wasn’t my garden at all—it was a coral reef (珊瑚礁).
On 22 March, it was a sunny day. I came back from school. I asked Dad if I could dig in my favourite spot by the yellow bush near our house, where we had planted potatoes and onions, but he told me not to, because he’d just moved a tree there and it was establishing roots. I went to the back garden instead, taking Dad’s old brown wooden garden tools. I dug a big hole, about a foot deep, which didn’t take very long, where I found a ball of mud with something pointy sticking out the top. I ran into the kitchen screaming. I was so excited. I knew it was a fossil.
At first, I thought it might be a deer’s tooth or a goat’s claw. When Dad washed the mud off, we saw that it had lots of bumpy, wavy lines; we both thought it looked like one of the sea anemones, from the fish tank in his office, but with a horn(触角). Dad sent a video to the Fossil Finds UK Facebook group. A man calling himself an archaeologist (考古学家) replied saying it had the markings of a horn coral from the Palaeozoic era, which is the very beginnings of life on Earth. I had found one of the oldest fossils in England.
We looked in my books and online for more information. We typed our postcode into a British Geology Survey search where you can find out what you’re standing on—ours is the oldest substrate in the area, with lots of clay and limestone, but it’s unusual to find anything so close to the surface. Experts told us that my horn coral lived between 415 million and 480 million years ago. There weren’t even proper fish or sharks then.

Before the horn coral, the only fossils I was familiar with were shark teeth that Dad got me. Since our find, Dad and I have been doing more digging in the garden. We have moved from the flowerbeds to the lawn. We’ve found stone blocks with hundreds of tiny traces from coral. We’ve got 11 pieces in total, but the horn coral is our biggest. The more fossils I found, the more obsessed I became with them.
When I grow up, I want to be an archaeologist.In this case, I will be able to study rocks and find out where they came from. I will make a display case for my finds and, one day, I hope to turn my fossils into a mini museum and make it free for people to visit. In addition, I want to spread stories of each fossil across the world.
