It was a Sunday and I was with my mom in a mall. Mom is short. It is easy to overlook her in a crowd because she is nothing extraordinary to see.

We walked down the mall, glancing at windows briefly because we both knew we wouldn't buy much, like always. I remember I was looking up at the people we passed - at first indifferently, but then attentively. Ladies wore five-inch heels and bright clothing. Men strode(阔步行走）by smelling of perfume.

An uneasy feeling started to settle in my chest. I tried to push it out, but once it took root it refused to be tossed away. I could not deny it; I was ashamed of my mother.

We were in a high-class neighborhood, I knew that. We lived in a small,overpriced apartment building that mom chose to move to because she knew the schools were good. But as I scrutinized the passers-by and then turned accusing eyes on Mom,I realized for the first time that we didn't belong there.

I could see the heavy lines around Mom's eyes and mouth. She wore cheap, ragged clothes.Her eyes were tired from working long hours to make ends meet and her hair too gray for her age.

I looked at her, and I was ashamed. My mom is nothing extraordinary, yet at that moment she stood out because she was just so plain.

I didn't want to be seen with her. Just then, pointing to a sweater in a high-end store, mom said, “This will look good on you. Do you want it?” I almost agreed, thoughtlessly. Then I took a closer look at the small,weary woman and my words died in my throat. Her clothes were old because she spent money buying me new ones. She looked tired because she was busy working to provide for me. She didn't wear jewelry because she was just content with me.

Suddenly, Mother was beautiful and extraordinarily wonderful in my eyes.

I was no longer ashamed of her, but of myself.

“No, thanks.” I said.

24. What was beneath the author's uneasy feeling?

A. A financial burden.     B. Her plain appearance.

C. A feeling of inferiority.    D. Her mother's status.

25. What does the underlined word “scrutinized” in paragraph 4 mean?

A. Completely ignored.    B. Carefully examined.

C. Directly contacted.     D. Secretly avoided.

26. Why did the author finally refuse her mother's offer?

A. She wanted to make up for her loss.

B. She was moved by her mother's words.

C. She intended to save money for the future.

D. She understood her mother's devotion to her.

27. What can be the best title of the text?

A. A Poor Mother     B.Nothing Extraordinary

C. An Unwanted Sweater    D. Something Different

C

Record-breaking heatwaves seen across the world this summer are set to repeat themselves due to human-caused climate change - even if we reached net zero today.

The summer of 2022 has set thousands of new temperature records across the United States alone, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The mechanisms(机制） behind these heatwaves may vary by region, but, as with the “heat dome（热穹顶）” that broke temperature records in the Pacific northwest in 2021, air pressure systems are key.

“Partly, it's the large-scale weather patterns,” said Craig Clements, professor at San José State University.“Here in the California Bay Area, we have this high pressure ridge(高压脊），which is a big buildup of air, and that air tends to be still. Thus, there's no sea breeze that usually cools off San Francisco,and that really is triggering the extensive heat. We can just continue to heat it with the sun's input because there's no cloud cover.”

It's natural for these air pressure systems to change over time. On the West coast of the U.S.,low pressure systems bring rain and cooler temperatures due to air from the north, with high pressure systems

following behind.

However, Clements notes that these weather patterns are becoming more pronounced and lasting longer. They're also becoming less “natural”.

“At this stage,the 'natural cycle' no longer applies." said Chris E.Forest,professor at Pennsylvania State University.“Across the globe,the likelihood of breaking weather extremes is directly related to the impact of climate change related to multiple causes, but primarily, increasing heat-trapping gases like CO2 and changes in landscape and landcover.”

Brian Hoskins,professor at the University of Reading in the U. K. , echoed the point. “ We know of no natural cycles that would lead to such records," he said. “I consider that it is virtually impossible that they would have happened without human-caused climate change.”

In the long term, even if we got to net zero emissions today, it will take the next 30 to 50 years until we start to see 'stabilized' global temperatures and the future extremes will be worsened by each degree of warming.

28.What do we know about the mechanisms behind heatwaves?

A. They show little regional differences.   B. The heat dome in 2021 created them.

C.They were controlled by the sun's input.   D. Air pressure systems are critical to them.

29. What does the underlined phrase “these weather patterns” in paragraph 6 refer to?

A. The weather patterns unique to the U.S.

B. The weather patterns following nature's rules.

C.The weather patterns contributing to heatwaves.

D. The weather patterns with low pressure systems.

30. What do Chris E. Forest and Brian Hoskins both agree with?

A. More extreme weathers are to come.   B. Climate problems are hard to address.

C. Humans are to blame for the heatwaves.   D.Causes of heatwaves are to be determined.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. The arrival of an unnatural cycle.    B. The role of human activities.

C. The unpredictability of a natural disaster.   D. The effects of extreme heatwaves.

D

The word paradigm comes from the Greek. It was originally a scientific term, and is more commonly used today to mean a model or theory. In the more general sense, it's the way we“see” the world - not in terms of our visual sense of sight, but in terms of perceiving, understanding, and interpreting.

A simple way to understand paradigms is to see them as maps. We all know that “the map is not the

territory.” A map is simply an explanation of certain aspects of the territory. That's exactly what a paradigm is. It is a theory, an explanation, or model of something else. You can never arrive at a specific location in a new city with a wrong map.

Each of us has many maps in our head, which can be divided into two main categories:maps of the way things are, or realities, and maps of the way things should be, or values. We interpret everything we experience through these mental maps. We seldom question their accuracy; we're usually even unaware that we have them. We simply assume that the way we see things is the way they really are or the way they should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow out of those assumptions. The way we see things is the source of the way we think and the way we act.

We see the world, not as it is, but as we are -or, as we are conditioned to see it. Clearheaded people see things differently, each looking through the unique lens of experience. But this does not mean that there are no facts. Instead,each person's interpretation of these facts represents prior experiences.

The more aware we are of our basic paradigms, maps, or assumptions,and the extent to which we have been influenced by our experience,the more we can take responsibility for those paradigms, examine them, test them against reality, listen to others and be open to their perceptions,thereby getting a larger picture and a far more objective view.

32. How does the author illustrate the concept of “paradigm”？

A. By comparing it to an everyday object.   B. By sorting it into different categories.

C. By presenting personal examples.    D. By highlighting a sharp contrast.

33. What can be concluded about the mental maps mentioned in paragraph 3?

A.They fail to escape our attention.    B. They may be lacking in accuracy.

C. They prove wrong and unreliable.    D. They have little influence on behavior.

34. Which of the following echoes the main idea of paragraph 4?

A. Great minds think alike.     B.All men have opinions, but few think.

C. Where we stand depends on where we sit.   D. The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinions.

35. What does the author advocate in the last paragraph?

A. A better understanding of our paradigms.   B. A stronger sense of responsibility for others.

C. A more objective view of others' perceptions.  D. A more positive attitude toward life experience.

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。

I am very delighted to enter my ideal school. For most freshmen, August is the month for military training, which serves as a good chance to get familiar with new classmates and adapt to campus life.

Our school's training took place from Aug 23 to 29. One of the challenges was to make a blackboard presentation in the new classroom. When I found out that I was in charge of this project, I had butterflies in my stomach. After all, this was the first activity in our school life.

“Would other top students alienate(疏远） me? Could I manage to both complete this project and rehearse for the closing concert? What if my classmates wouldn't follow instructions under my leadership? I was thinking of these tricky questions by myself.

The project began on Aug 24. The group of blackboard presentation was composed of four girls. The three other girls in the group were flexible. We gave up our lunch break hour and returned to the dormitory later at night so as to work longer on the project. One girl questioned my design, saying that we should abridge (删减） the text and leave more space for pictures. The disagreements between us upset me from time to time, but whenever there was a conflict, I tried to stay calm, decide whether to take her suggestions and then make adjustments accordingly. Gradually, I found her to be a person of strong opinion and organizational capabilities. Sometimes I was absent for a rehearsal, and I felt relieved to leave the project in her care. Other classmates turned out to be amazingly warm-hearted. Every day, five or six students came to ask me if they could help out with the decorations. Then came the big day.

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Two hours before our presentation, we were in need of paper flowers.
