Driving has always been my escape.And then I have kids.Kids change the “whole freedom of the road” experience.They arrive in your back seat one day，like some crying VIPs that you need to carry around，and nothing is ever quite the same again.
These days，with three kids between the ages of 1 and 6 lined up in the back seat，I find that driving my car has become more about predicting what might erupt at any moment.So，for those of you about to become parents，here are some types of kids you'll have in your car.
The Complainers
“Are we there yet？”
“Why is it taking so long？”
“I'm so bored that I hate your fat face，Dad！”
When kids are tired or feel a little annoyed，they complain.And nothing can make a car ride worse than a steady stream of complaint coming from the back seat.
The Boxers
Once you have two kids back there who've reached the age of 3 or 4，you can be absolutely certain that，if they are within even a long arm stretch of one another，they will hit each other in the face more frequently than most parents ever want to admit.
The Hungry Vikings
My kids attack the snack and let it fall anywhere they may.I don't know why I continue to let my kids eat in the car.Maybe it's because we're on the go a lot Maybe it's because I'm a complete idiot Regardless of the real reason，the fact of the matter is that kids under，say 15，seem to eat food in a moving vehicle much the same way that I imagine hungry Vikings used to tear a barely-cooked turkey leg whenever they set foot on shore after a long period at sea.
The Conversationalists
Kids are really great travelling companions a lot of the time—especially when they're fast asleep.But when they're just sitting back there talking to you，listening to you，and smiling at you in the rear-view mirror，those are the best times in the world.
1．What has changed the author's driving experience
A．Getting married.
B．Dealing with VIPs.
C．Carrying kids in the car.
D．Having naughty kids in the family.
2．Why does the author call little kids boxers

B．They usually fight each other like boxers.
C．They always pretend to be boxers.
D．They always watch boxing matches in the car.
3．When the author describes kids in the car as vikings，he really means ________．
A．they are always hungry
B．they have little food to eat in the car
C．they throw food everywhere
D．they behave wildly like stealing things

Sitting in the garden for my friend's birthday，I felt a buzz in my pocket.My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name.The email started off，“Dear Mr Green，thank you for your interest” and “the review process took longer than expected”. It ended with “We are sorry to inform you...” and my vision blurred.I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying for the programme，and I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.
So I was shocked when，not long after the email，Professor Mary Devon invited me to observe the work being done in her lab.I jumped at the chance，and a few weeks later I was equally shocked—and overjoyed—when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab.I got it and decided I was going to give it my all.
I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely.That project，which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert，not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn't.In the end，I had a new scientific interest to pursue.
When I applied to graduate school，I found three programmes promising to allow me to follow my desired research direction.This time I had the perspective to keep it from sending me into panic due to my being rejected.It helped that in the end I was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.
Rather than setting plans in stone，I've learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered，even if they don't sound perfect at the time，and make the most of them.

According to a new USDA(the U．S Department of Agriculture) report，U．S.forests could worsen global warming because they are being destroyed by natural disasters and are losing their ability to absorb planet-warming gases as they get older.The report predicts that the ability of forests to absorb carbon will start declining after 2025 and that forests could release up to 100 million metric tons of carbon a year as their emissions from decaying(腐爛)trees go above their carbon absorption.Forests could become a “substantial carbon source” by 2070，the USDA report says.
The loss of carbon absorption is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires，tornadoes and hurricanes，which are increasing in frequency and strength as global temperatures rise.The disasters destroy forestland，destroying its ecosystem and decreasing its ability to absorb carbon，according to Lynn Riley，a senior manager of climate science at the American Forest Foundation.Aging forests also contribute.The report found that older，mature trees absorb less carbon than younger trees of the same species，and U．S.forests are rapidly aging.
This trend is likely to continue，as forests come under increasing threat from climate change and exploitation.The typical tropical forest may become a carbon source by the 2060s，according to Simon Lewis，a professor in the school of geography at Leeds University.“Humans have been lucky so far，as tropical forests are cleaning up lots of our pollution，but they can't keep doing that indefinitely，” he said.“We need to cut down fossil fuel emissions before the global carbon cycle starts working against us.”
U．S.forests currently absorb 11 percent of U．S.carbon emissions，or 150 million metric tons of carbon a year，equal to the combined emissions from 40 coal power plants，according to the report.The loss of forests as natural carbon absorbers will require the U．S.to cut emissions more rapidly to reach net zero.“As we work to decarbonize(碳減排)，forests are one of the greatest tools.If we were to lose that tool，it means we will contribute that much more in emissions，” Riley said.
8．What is the main finding of the report
A．Forests are suffering from decaying trees.
B．Forests could contribute to global warming.
C．Forests are being destroyed by natural disasters.
D．Forests have become substantial carbon absorbers.
9．What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A．The key role of forests in the ecosystem.
B．The consequences of frequent natural disasters.
C．The impact of rising global temperatures on forests.
D．The reasons for forests' declining ability to absorb carbon.
10．What is Simon Lewis' suggestion on addressing the problem
A．Reducing fossil fuel emissions.
B．Cleaning up decaying trees in time.
C．Planting trees on a large scale.
D．Limiting the exploitation of forests.
11．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A．To offer suggestions on forest management.
B．To stress the significance of forest protection.
C．To present the efforts made to reach net zero.
D．To show the carbon emissions from coal power plants.
D
Plenty of scientific work proves that children，and even adults，who learn sign language，gain the benefits not only in the ability to communicate with other sign language users，but also in the wider academic world.
Deaf children who learn sign language at an early age tend to perform better academically.This is partly due to their increased ability to communicate with those around them.However，it is also because sign language is not，as many people mistakenly think，a system of gestures representing words，but a complete and complex language system.Thus，children who learn sign language have already learnt about the way language works，which will help in future studies.
Again，for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language，the academic advantages spill over into social and cultural ones.Firstly，learning sign language allows the speaker to communicate with a whole new community of people and gain an understanding of how they communicate within their community.Secondly，learning a language gives rise to greater confidence for that person，as he is able to communicate with someone who may struggle to do so.And the skills of language learning can easily be applied to learning other languages but also to other academic pursuits.
There can be no doubt that learning sign language is a useful endeavour for anyone—whether they are deaf themselves and live in a house with other deaf people or whether they are non-deaf and do not know anyone who is.The social，cultural and academic advantages of learning this complex language are diverse and should not be taken lightly.And，especially with children，learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage them in the future to do more—volunteering and other such work.This means that the non-deaf child can be given a sense of social responsibility at an early age and taught to embrace all people—not in spite of their differences but because of them.
12．What is sign language according to the author
A．It is a creative way of expressing ideas.
B．It is a complete and complex language system.
C．It is a primary language of disabled people.
D．It is a system of gestures representing words.
13．What does the underlined word “endeavour” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Attempt. 　 B．Experiment.
C．Incident. 　 D．Feedback.
14．What quality can a non-deaf child who learns sign language acquire
A．Being competitive.
B．Being courageous.
C．Being responsible.
D．Being positive.
15．What conclusion can we draw from the text
A.Learning sign language brings people an advantage of finding a future job.
B.The numerous advantages of learning sign language should be taken seriously.
C.Non-deaf children should learn sign language due to the differences of the deaf people.
D.It's unnecessary for non-deaf person who doesn't know any deaf people to learn sign language.

Trudy was a child of the British Columbia Care System.
In our home，we already had a child of our own，Margaret，who was thirteen.Our friends thought we were mad to take on another teenage child.
That afternoon，Trudy arrived. She stepped into the front hall and clung to the wall.The first thing that came to my mind was that she looked like a hunted animal.Margaret grabbed her hand and said proudly: “Come and see your room.I helped make your bed.” Trudy pulled back，but didn't let go of her hand.
At this point，I stepped towards her and said，“Welcome to our home，Trudy.” Her eyes darted back and forth like a creature looking for a way out.This had been her fifth foster home since she was eleven.No wonder she was afraid.I put my arms around her and told her she would be safe with us.
Trudy was very quiet but pleasant and the two kids got on along well. One day，I took Margaret shopping for a new winter coat，and Trudy came too.Trudy had picked out a jacket that she liked. She walked up to Margaret，modelling the jacket，and sighed，“Isn't it beautiful？” Margaret agreed as they both looked in the mirror.Replacing the jacket on the rack，she rejoined Margaret.
While they were busy，I quietly asked the salesperson to wrap up the jacket that Trudy had tried on.We bought the coat that Margaret had loved，and the salesperson had placed the parcel containing Trudy's coat where the girls couldn't see it.
When we arrived home，Margaret proudly modelled her new coat.Trudy was complimenting on her choice.I chose that moment to say，“Trudy，would you please go out and bring in the parcel I left in the car？”

What Best Represents China
When it comes to the best representative of China, in my opinion, the Great Wall is the most iconic landscape of China.
It represents the country's ancient history, rich culture, and strong spirit.This engineering marvel extends across vast mountains and deserts, a testament to the resilience and determination of the Chinese people.It stands as a symbol of unity and defense, representing the country's strength and unity.The Great Wall, with its magnificent scenery and profound historical significance, best represents China.

[參考范文]　
She happily headed for the parcel and when she returned, laid it on the table. “Would you please open the parcel and rip paper for me？” Trudy reached out to touch the jacket.Her hand recoiled as if she had touched something
hostile.I walked over to her, putting my arms around her.I took Trudy's face in my hands, asking, “Isn't this the jacket you were trying on？” At that, Trudy started sobbing.“In all my life, no one has ever bought me a beautiful jacket like this.Why did you do this？” She held the jacket and stared at it with disbelief.My voice shook as I managed to say, “Because you deserve it.”
I left and went to my room so she would not see my watery eyes. My heart ached for this child who didn't feel she was worthy of a coat.As I was sitting there deep in thought, Margaret stepped forward, saying “Mum, thank you for bringing Trudy into our home.We hope we can keep her forever.” My eyes welled up with tears.As I gathered my children to me, they began to say, “We love you, Mum.” I looked at the faces of my treasures and whispered, “I love you too.Guess who's the luckiest mother in the world.”

第一節(jié)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
Driving has always been my escape.And then I have kids.Kids change the “whole freedom of the road”experience.They arrive in your back seat one day，like some crying VIPs that you need to carry around，and nothing is ever quite the same again.
These days，with three kids between the ages of 1 and 6 lined up in the back seat，I find that driving my car has become more about predicting what might erupt at any moment.So，for those of you about to become parents，here are some types of kids you'll have in your car.
The Complainers
“Are we there yet？”
“Why is it taking so long？”
“I'm so bored that I hate your fat face，Dad！”
When kids are tired or feel a little annoyed，they complain.And nothing can make a car ride worse than a steady stream of complaint coming from the back seat.
The Boxers
Once you have two kids back there who've reached the age of 3 or 4，you can be absolutely certain that，if they are within even a long arm stretch of one another，they will hit each other in the face more frequently than most parents ever want to admit.
The Hungry Vikings
My kids attack the snack and let it fall anywhere they may.I don't know why I continue to let my kids eat in the car.Maybe it's because we're on the go a lot Maybe it's because I'm a complete idiot Regardless of the real reason，the fact of the matter is that kids under，say 15，seem to eat food in a moving vehicle much the same way that I imagine hungry Vikings used to tear a barely-cooked turkey leg whenever they set foot on shore after a long period at sea.
The Conversationalists
Kids are really great travelling companions a lot of the time—especially when they're fast asleep.But when they're just sitting back there talking to you，listening to you，and smiling at you in the rear-view mirror，those are the best times in the world.

Sitting in the garden for my friend's birthday，I felt a buzz in my pocket.My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name.The email started off，“Dear Mr Green，thank you for your interest”and “the review process took longer than expected”. It ended with “We are sorry to inform you...”and my vision blurred.I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying for the programme，and I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.
So I was shocked when，not long after the email，Professor Mary Devon invited me to observe the work being done in her lab.I jumped at the chance，and a few weeks later I was equally shocked—and overjoyed—when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab.I got it and decided I was going to give it my all.
I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely.That project，which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert，not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn't.In the end，I had a new scientific interest to pursue.
When I applied to graduate school，I found three programmes promising to allow me to follow my desired research direction.This time I had the perspective to keep it from sending me into panic due to my being rejected.It helped that in the end I was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.
Rather than setting plans in stone，I've learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered，even if they don't sound perfect at the time，and make the most of them.

According to a new USDA(the U．S Department of Agriculture) report，U．S.forests could worsen global warming because they are being destroyed by natural disasters and are losing their ability to absorb planet-warming gases as they get older.The report predicts that the ability of forests to absorb carbon will start declining after 2025 and that forests could release up to 100 million metric tons of carbon a year as their emissions from decaying(腐爛)trees go above their carbon absorption.Forests could become a “substantial carbon source”by 2070，the USDA report says.
The loss of carbon absorption is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires，tornadoes and hurricanes，which are increasing in frequency and strength as global temperatures rise.The disasters destroy forestland，destroying its ecosystem and decreasing its ability to absorb carbon，according to Lynn Riley，a senior manager of climate science at the American Forest Foundation.Aging forests also contribute.The report found that older，mature trees absorb less carbon than younger trees of the same species，and U．S.forests are rapidly aging.
This trend is likely to continue，as forests come under increasing threat from climate change and exploitation.The typical tropical forest may become a carbon source by the 2060s，according to Simon Lewis，a professor in the school of geography at Leeds University.“Humans have been lucky so far，as tropical forests are cleaning up lots of our pollution，but they can't keep doing that indefinitely，”he said.“We need to cut down fossil fuel emissions before the global carbon cycle starts working against us.”
U．S.forests currently absorb 11 percent of U．S.carbon emissions，or 150 million metric tons of carbon a year，equal to the combined emissions from 40 coal power plants，according to the report.The loss of forests as natural carbon absorbers will require the U．S.to cut emissions more rapidly to reach net zero.“As we work to decarbonize(碳減排)，forests are one of the greatest tools.If we were to lose that tool，it means we will contribute that much more in emissions，”Riley said.
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。美國農(nóng)業(yè)部的一份新報告稱森林在未來可能會加劇全球變暖，而非緩解全球變暖，到2070年，森林甚至可能會成為主要的碳排放者。

Plenty of scientific work proves that children，and even adults，who learn sign language，gain the benefits not only in the ability to communicate with other sign language users，but also in the wider academic world.
Deaf children who learn sign language at an early age tend to perform better academically.This is partly due to their increased ability to communicate with those around them.However，it is also because sign language is not，as many people mistakenly think，a system of gestures representing words，but a complete and complex language system.Thus，children who learn sign language have already learnt about the way language works，which will help in future studies.
Again，for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language，the academic advantages spill over into social and cultural ones.Firstly，learning sign language allows the speaker to communicate with a whole new community of people and gain an understanding of how they communicate within their community.Secondly，learning a language gives rise to greater confidence for that person，as he is able to communicate with someone who may struggle to do so.And the skills of language learning can easily be applied to learning other languages but also to other academic pursuits.
There can be no doubt that learning sign language is a useful endeavour for anyone—whether they are deaf themselves and live in a house with other deaf people or whether they are non-deaf and do not know anyone who is.The social，cultural and academic advantages of learning this complex language are diverse and should not be taken lightly.And，especially with children，learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage them in the future to do more—volunteering and other such work.This means that the non-deaf child can be given a sense of social responsibility at an early age and taught to embrace all people—not in spite of their differences but because of them.
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了學習手語的眾多優(yōu)勢。學習手語可以為人們帶來學術(shù)優(yōu)勢，無論他們是否可以聽到，這種優(yōu)勢還會蔓延到社會和文化領(lǐng)域。
B　[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“However，it is also because sign language is not，as many people mistakenly think，a system of gestures representing words，but a complete and complex language system.”可知，作者認為手語是一個完整的復雜的語言系統(tǒng)。故選B。]
√
12．What is sign language according to the author
A．It is a creative way of expressing ideas.
B．It is a complete and complex language system.
C．It is a primary language of disabled people.
D．It is a system of gestures representing words.
13．What does the underlined word “endeavour”in paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Attempt. 　 B．Experiment.
C．Incident. 　 D．Feedback.
√
A　[詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞下文可知，學習手語對任何人來說都是有好處的，因此是一項有益的努力。由此可知，畫線詞endeavour與attempt“努力，嘗試”意思一致。故選A。]
14．What quality can a non-deaf child who learns sign language acquire
A．Being competitive.
B．Being courageous.
C．Being responsible.
D．Being positive.
√
C　[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“This means that the non-deaf child can be given a sense of social responsibility at an early age and taught to embrace all people—not in spite of their differences but because of them.”可推知，學習手語使得不耳聾的兒童可以在很小的時候就被賦予社會責任感。故選C。]
15．What conclusion can we draw from the text
A．Learning sign language brings people an advantage of finding a future job.
B．The numerous advantages of learning sign language should be taken seriously.
C．Non-deaf children should learn sign language due to the differences of the deaf people.
D．It's unnecessary for non-deaf person who doesn't know any deaf people to learn sign language.
√
B　[推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段以及下文內(nèi)容可知，文章論述了學習手語的優(yōu)勢，從學術(shù)優(yōu)勢蔓延到社會和文化領(lǐng)域，對聾啞人和非聾啞人，孩子及成年人來說，學習手語都是有益的。由此推知，學習手語的許多好處應(yīng)該被認真對待。故選B。]

36．when　[考查定語從句。句意：從字面上看，“霜降”指的是由于天氣寒冷，中國霜凍開始下降的時間。定語從句修飾先行詞time，在從句中作時間狀語。故填when。]
37．done　[考查非謂語動詞。句意：在北方，大片的農(nóng)田在這個季節(jié)已經(jīng)完成收割，農(nóng)民們可以休息一下了。此處field與do構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作賓補。故填done。]

What Best Represents China
When it comes to the best representative of China，in my opinion，the Great Wall is the most iconic landscape of China.
It represents the country's ancient history，rich culture，and strong spirit.This engineering marvel extends across vast mountains and deserts，a testament to the resilience and determination of the Chinese people. It stands as a symbol of unity and defense，representing the country's strength and unity. The Great Wall，with its magnificent scenery and profound historical significance，best represents China.
第二節(jié)
閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
Trudy was a child of the British Columbia Care System.
In our home，we already had a child of our own，Margaret，who was thirteen.Our friends thought we were mad to take on another teenage child.
That afternoon，Trudy arrived. She stepped into the front hall and clung to the wall.The first thing that came to my mind was that she looked like a hunted animal.Margaret grabbed her hand and said proudly: “Come and see your room.I helped make your bed.”Trudy pulled back，but didn't let go of her hand.
At this point，I stepped towards her and said，“Welcome to our home，Trudy.”Her eyes darted back and forth like a creature looking for a way out.This had been her fifth foster home since she was eleven.No wonder she was afraid.I put my arms around her and told her she would be safe with us.
Trudy was very quiet but pleasant and the two kids got on along well. One day，I took Margaret shopping for a new winter coat，and Trudy came too.Trudy had picked out a jacket that she liked. She walked up to Margaret，modelling the jacket，and sighed，“Isn't it beautiful？”Margaret agreed as they both looked in the mirror.Replacing the jacket on the rack，she rejoined Margaret.
While they were busy，I quietly asked the salesperson to wrap up the jacket that Trudy had tried on.We bought the coat that Margaret had loved，and the salesperson had placed the parcel containing Trudy's coat where the girls couldn't see it.
When we arrived home，Margaret proudly modelled her new coat.Trudy was complimenting on her choice.I chose that moment to say，“Trudy，would you please go out and bring in the parcel I left in the car？”
注意：1．續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2．請按如下格式作答。
She happily headed for the parcel and when she returned，laid it on the table._________________________________________________

She happily headed for the parcel and when she returned，laid it on the table. “Would you please open the parcel and rip paper for me？”Trudy reached out to touch the jacket.Her hand recoiled as if she had touched something hostile.I walked over to her，putting my arms around her.I took Trudy's face in my hands，asking，“Isn't this the jacket you were trying on？”At that，Trudy started sobbing.“In all my life，no one has ever bought me a beautiful jacket like this.Why did you do this？”She held the jacket and stared at it with disbelief.My voice shook as I managed to say，“Because you deserve it.”
I left and went to my room so she would not see my watery eyes. My heart ached for this child who didn't feel she was worthy of a coat. As I was sitting there deep in thought，Margaret stepped forward，saying “Mum，thank you for bringing Trudy into our home.We hope we can keep her forever.”My eyes welled up with tears.As I gathered my children to me，they began to say，“We love you，Mum.”I looked at the faces of my treasures and whispered，“I love you too.Guess who's the luckiest mother in the world.”
