Fascinating Facts About London’s Parks
Did you know that 47 percent of London consists of green space Take away the private gardens and that leaves 37% of the capital’s green land given over to Royal Parks, gardens, and public green spaces. It’s the third greenest capital city in the world. Now let’s take a look at the most fascinating facts about London’s parks.
Handing out flowers in Green Park
Nobody is totally sure how Green Park got its name. There are a few different theories. One tale says that the name originates from the time of Charles Ⅱ. The King was walking through the park with his wife and courtiers when he picked a flower. Instead of handing it to Queen Catherine, he handed it to another woman that was said to be his mistress (情妇). Extremely angry, the Queen ordered that all the flowers in the park be dug out, leaving only grass.
Counting trees in the Royal Parks
When counted together, the Royal Parks contain over 170,000 trees, with the oldest being the 400-year-old chestnut trees in Greenwich Park. These are young trees, though, compared to London’s oldest tree — a great elm in High Barnet that is said to be over 2,000 years old. London has more than 8 million trees: nearly as many as people there.
Underground secrets in Greenwich
Greenwich Park shows more fascinating features. Deep under the surface are buried a series of secret tunnels that are tall enough for a person to walk. It’s been claimed that the tunnels were built as secret escape routes for King Henry Ⅷ. Their real purpose is a little less exciting, and the tunnels were actually built as waterways to allow groundwater from the hillsides to escape.
Walking is the best way to explore London’s beautiful green spaces. We hope you will enjoy these fun facts.
21. How might Green Park get its name according to the text
A. There were so many green trees in it.
B. The King Charles Ⅱ gave the park its name.
C. The grass in the park was well protected by the Queen.
D. Its flowers were removed and only grass was left.
22. Where is the oldest tree in London
A. In Green Park. B. In Royal parks.
C. In High Barnet. D. In Greenwich Park.
23. What will you see if you go to Greenwich Park
A. Tunnels under its surface. B. The hillsides with waterways.
C. The oldest tree of London. D. The statue of King Henry Ⅷ.
B
When I was in my early 20s, I first discovered the poem Desiderata. It was a grey rainy weekend in a shop in Australia. On the wall was a poster with a text, and the first two words were “Go placidly (平静地)”.
Curious, I stepped up to the poster. My eyes were drawn to the poem: Go placidly amid the noise and haste (匆忙), and remember what peace there may be in silence... Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others.
Desiderata is a 1920s poem by the almost-forgotten American poet Max Ehrmann. It’s basically an instruction on how to live a happy life. It first caught public attention 20 years after Ehrmann’s death in the 1960s, when peace and love suddenly seemed quite attractive. By the 1970s copies of the text hung in classrooms and living rooms all over America. However, most people today don’t know the poem anymore.
I have several poems memorized and they have been a great help in their own different ways. But Desiderata still seems the most helpful one. Go placidly through life. Not gently or quietly, but with calm and confidence, even when in the middle of “noise and haste”. And I don’t know if you’ve looked out the window recently, but there’s an awful lot of noise and haste going around.
It has been more than 10 years since I first read Desiderata. I’m a little older, none the wiser. I now have a two-year-old kid, which means our house is usually like a space in a war. But among the tears and the painful joy of parenthood, I think of those words — go placidly — and I can almost feel my blood pressure dropping. It’s like a cool light wind on a hot day, and tells me that the solution to chaos isn’t necessarily order — its attitude.
24. What do we know about the poem Desiderata
A. Its message has changed over time. B. It was written for students.
C. There has been a rise and a drop in its popularity. D. Its aim was to cheer up people in the 1960s.
25. How does the poem Desiderata benefit the author
A. It teaches him how to act in chaos. B. It helps him to build up confidence.
C. It interested him in reading. D. It made him treasure life more.
26. How is the author’s life as a new parent
A. Looking after a kid makes him wiser. B. His house is most often in a mess.
C. He feels perfectly content with his family. D. Parenting brings him more pain than joy.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To tell us a poem’s influence on him. B. To show us how to live a peaceful life.
C. To explain why he likes poems. D. To encourage us to read poems.
C
Last year, an estimated one in seven Americans participated in Dry January, a challenge to avoid alcohol for a month. The idea is to keep away from holiday excess and start the new year on a healthier note. The annual 31-day practice began as a public health campaign in the United Kingdom about eight years ago and has been growing ever since.
Dry January is a great strategy for improving your relationship with alcohol, says Keith Heinzerling, MD, an internist (内科医生) and addiction medicine specialist. “Doing a ‘trial quit’ for a short period of time is easier for many people than going straight to total abstinence,” he says. “Taking time away from drinking, even just for a few weeks, gives you a fresh perspective and the opportunity to break bad habits you may have with alcohol.”
It doesn’t take long to start to see positive changes, according to Dr. Heinzerling. “Within just a few days of not drinking, your blood pressure and heart rate will be lower, and you’ll have improved blood sugar regulation, better sleep, and less anxiety and depression,” he says. Another bonus: Quitting alcohol often makes other good habits — exercise and healthy eating, for example — easier to start and maintain, which in turn leads to even more health benefits.
For those who might not be able to handle a month of not drinking, Dr. Heinzerling says, “People who wake up with withdrawal symptoms (症状) , sweating, tremors, and a strong need for a drink should not do Dry January.”
For everyone — social drinkers and possible problem drinkers — one key to a positive Dry January is to see it not as a month of gritting (咬紧) your teeth and getting through it until you can drink again, but rather the start of a healthier lifestyle overall. What better way to start the new year
28. What can we learn about Dry January
A. It is a campaign in which participants can learn more about alcohol.
B. Participants are advised to cut out alcohol for a month in January.
C. Participants are advised to take holidays and keep healthy in January.
D. It is a challenge which aims to introduce the harm of drinking alcohol.
29. What does the underlined phrase “total abstinence” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Absolutely no drinking. B. Short-time trial quit.
C. Long-time relationship. D. Total alcohol addiction.
30. Which of the following statements is NOT the benefit of Dry January
A. It can help reduce some mental pressure and improve sleeping quality.
B. It has some positive effects on your blood pressure and heart rate.
C. You are likely to form other good habits in sports and diets after Dry January.
D. It will definitely help you get rid of the bad habit with alcohol addiction.
31. Which of the following would the author agree with
A. Let me get drunk with friends after the month!
B. For a brand-new start and healthier life, keep it up.
C. It is a small piece of cake to stop drinking for a month.
D. Dry January will be followed by a Drunk February.
D
Extreme land use combined with warming temperatures is pushing insect ecosystems towards collapse in some parts of the world, scientists reported Wednesday. The study, published in the journal Nature, identified for the first time a clear and alarming link between the climate crisis and high-intensity agriculture and showed that, in places where those impacts are particularly high, insect abundance (丰富) has already dropped by nearly 50%, while the number of species has been reduced by 27%.
These findings cause huge concerns, according to Charlotte Outhwaite, the lead author on the study and researcher at the University College London, given the important role of insects in local ecosystems, pollination (授粉) and food production, and note that losing insects could threaten human health and food security. “Three quarters of our crops depend on insect pollinators,” Dave Goulson, a professor of biology at the University of Sussex in the UK, previously told CNN. “Without insects, crops will begin to fail. We won’t have things like strawberries. We can’t feed 8 billion people.”
Scientists say, extreme land use has a link with the climate crisis. Clearing natural habitats for agriculture can dramatically change the area’s local climate and cause temperature extremes. Researchers found evident declines in insect populations in warmer areas, particularly in the tropics (热带). They concluded that in areas with less agriculture, less climate warming, and a nearby natural habitat, insects only declined by 7%, compared to the 63% decrease in areas with less natural habitat cover.
Outhwaite told CNN there are things we can do to help prevent this crisis, like planting more native species and wildflowers, and reducing chemicals used in gardens. “It’s also probably a good idea to think about where the foods that we are buying are being sourced from,” Outhwaite said. “So if they’re being sourced from tropical countries, there’s probably going to be a high impact on biodiversity there.”
32. Why does the author quote Dave Goulson’s words in Paragraph 2
A. To provide evidence for the decline in insect populations.
B. To emphasize the significance of insects to human life.
C. To show the importance of preserving natural habitats for animals.
D. To suggest potential solutions to prevent the decline of insects.
33. Which of the following may contribute to the largest decline in insect population
A. Preserving habitats cover in colder areas. B. Making full use of land in colder areas.
C. Expanding agriculture production in tropics. D. Planting more native species in warmer areas.
34. What does Outhwaite’s words mainly focus on in the last paragraph
A. The suggestions on how to protect the diversity of insects.
B. The efforts that have been made to protect insects.
C. The advice on what kind of products to buy to avoid insect crisis.
D. The reasons why we should preserve the diversity of insects.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Reasons for Endangered Insect Ecosystems B. Agriculture Harms Ecosystems
C. Efforts Made to Save Insect Ecosystems D. Insect Ecosystems Need Help

67. 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 parents do a lot of embarrassing things! Usually, it’s my dad who sings silly songs or tells jokes around my friends. But a few weeks ago, it was my mother who played the embarrassing-parent role.
While my mom and I were shopping, we ran into my teacher, who mentioned the school didn’t have a music teacher to help our class put together a performance for Winter Fair. And, then my mom said, “I know the perfect song and dance. I’ll teach it to the kids!”
Before I could say “Please don’t”, my mom had agreed to come to my class every morning at 9:30 for a week. Oh, and just to be clear, it’s not as if she’s a professional entertainer. My parents run a small grocery store, and the only singing my mom does is in the shower.
“Mom,” I said on our way home, “Are you sure this is such a good idea ” “Of course!” she said. “If we want your school Winter Fair to happen, people need to step up and volunteer.” She laughed, “We will have fun!”
“OK, kids!” my teacher said at 9:28 on Monday. “We’re going to stop silent reading a little early today because a special guest is here to help us with a performance for Winter Fair. Let’s all welcome Arizona’s mother.”
I looked up to discover my mom standing in the front of the room wearing the world’s silliest hat. “I’m super excited to be here with you!” my mom said, “I’m going to teach you a fun little song-and-dance performance I learned a few years ago. Here goes!” Oh please, oh please, I said over and over in my head, let there be a fire drill, or a power failure, or anything to stop my mom from completely embarrassing herself-and me!
But apparently, my mom was not at all concerned about looking silly. She turned on some background music and started singing and dancing away.

Learning English poetry, yes or no
In my opinion, learning English poetry is a resounding yes! It’s crucial as it enriches vocabulary, hones language skills, and offers insights into Western culture. The rhythm and rhyme also enhance our sense of language.
Personally, I’ve had an amazing experience. Reading English poems is like stepping into a world of beauty and emotion. The vivid imagery and profound meanings touch my heart. It’s not just learning but a journey of feeling the power and charm of the English language.
【答案】One Possible Version
“I can’t believe this is happening” was all I could think. I closed my eyes, covered my ears and shrank as low as I possibly could in my chair. After a few seconds, though. I gathered courage to uncover one ear and peek through a half-open eye. That’s when I saw the expression of pure joy on my mom’s face. She was having so much fun that I couldn’t help smiling. My classmates clapped and cheered, and I heard someone say, “Wow! Arizona’s mother is pretty talented!”
My mom turned out to be very good at performing. She was also good at teaching us the song and the dance steps. too. We learned quickly. By the time of the fair, I was actually proud of her for putting herself out there for us kids. Our performance at the Winter Fair was a huge success. As we drove home, I said to my mom, “I’m really glad you volunteered to help my class with the performance.” My mom reached back and squeezed my hand. “Thanks for saying that. I can see why you might have been embarrassed, but I had such a great time.”
