But if you're most worried about safety,a new study by Forbes Advisor that ranks the safest vacation destinations in Europe may help you decide.The list ranks 25 European Union(EU) countries, plus the UK, Switzerland and Albania—but not including the EU's Latvia and Luxembourg.It's based on data including crime rates, air quality, quality of health care,as well as the quality of each country's bathing waters.Each destination was given a safety score out of 100. And with a score of 88.3, Switzerland was found to be the safest country to visit in Europe. According to data from the Euro Health Consumer Index, Switzerland had the best health care out of the 28 countries included in the research. It also had the fourth lowest murder rate—and tied with Portugal for the sixth cleanest bathing waters, according to data from the European Environment Agency.Second on the list was Slovenia,scoring 82.3 with its low crime rate,including the lowest murder rate among the included countries. Portugal was in third place, scoring 82.1 and ranking fourth for air quality. The UK had the worst result, with a safety score of just 41.2—including the highest rate of theft, and the worst bathing waters. The best bathing waters were in Cyprus.21.In which aspect are Switzerland and Portugal of the same rank?A.Air quality.                           B.Health care. C.Bathing waters.                        D.Murder rate.22.

BLast year,Karen Wooldridge and his friend Laura Hogan had an idea: Take unsold flowers which will be thrown away and send them to old people.“We started working on our kitchen island, and we were really proud of sending flowers,"Wooldridge said. Soon, Hogan added,“We developed.”Now, they send a thousand unsold bunches of flowers a month, with 150 volunteers working five days a week. Their organization,Bluebirds &. Blooms,is named after their childhood youth troupe（剧团）The Bluebirds.Their flowers brighten 30 communities—mostly homes for seniors who are losing their memories.Vellie Larson has lost some of her memories, but her daughter Karen Schwartz was in the same Bluebirds troupe as Wooldridge and Hogan, and Larson taught them all music.“When they send flowers to her,”Schwartz said,“She'll describe them to me and give me a flower report every day.”“The flowers are also a hint that someone cares,”said Sheryl Hassan, the center's director.“They're sad, and just having such a simple thing as a bunch of flowers brightens their days,”Hassan said.“Families will come in, and they'll say,'Oh who got you flowers?This is beautiful.’And it says‘Thinking of you.'The seniors can just say,'Oh,somebody was thinking of me!'”For Wooldridge,the act of kindness brings back great memories of her father,who had Alzheimer's（老年痴呆）.“I know he would have loved visits from these women，”Wooldridge said. And while some might find it difficult to work so closely with those fighting with memory loss, Hogan said,“It makes us happy. We're doing something good."24. What idea did Wooldridge and Hogan have last year?A.Making profits by recycling unsold flowers. B.Turning unsold flowers into gifts for seniors. C.Aiding seniors by selling flowers for a living.

C.It has grown into a national organization. D.It mainly serves the old with memory loss.26.What does the underlined word“hint”in Paragraph 4 mean？A.Reminder.        B.Commitment.        C.Responsibility.        D.Routine.27.How do the flowers influence the receivers?A.They promote family harmony.            B.They make their life worthwhile. C.They cure them of their diseases.           D.They create a sense of well-being.CThe United Nations has estimated that the world's population will reach 8 billion by November 15,2022.According to the World Population Prospects 2022 report released on July 11, the world's population is currently 7.942 billion. The UN said it could grow to around 8.5 billion in 2030,9.7 billion in 2050 and peak at around10.4 billion during the 2080s. It's forecast to remain at that level until 2100. More than half the predicted increase in population up to 2050 will happen in just eight countries: Congo, Egypt,Ethiopia,India,Nigeria,Pakistan,the Philippines and Tanzania.The report also predicts that India,with a current population of 1.412 billion,could have more population than China in 2023. The UN predicts that in 2050 the United States will remain the third most populous country in the world,behind India and China.Nigeria is predicted to be fourth,followed by Pakistan, Indonesia, Brazil, Congo, Ethiopia and Bangladesh.As for gender balance, the report says 50.3% of the world's population are men while 49.7% are women, but it predicts numbers will be more equal by 2050. In another trend, the report said,“the population above age 65 is growing more rapidly than the population below that age.”John Wilmoth,director of the UN Population Division, said high life expectancy （寿命）and very low levels of birth ratesin European countries，Japan，North America，Australia and New Zealand are driving the tendency toward rapid population aging, and eventually potential population declines.As a result，over the next few decades，international migration（移民）“will be the only driver of population growth in high-income countries," the report said, while a higher number of births over deaths will continue to drive population increase in low-income and lower-middle income countries.28.What can we learn about the world population from Paragraph 2?A.It will reach the top by the year 2080. B.It will come to a turning point in the year 2030. C.It may be relatively stable between 2080 and 2100. D.It is forecast to rise only in eight countries up to 2050. 29.Which country has the largest population currently?A.India.            B.China.            C.America.            D.Nigeria.30.What does John Wilmoth probably agree with?A.Population aging may result from high life expectancy. B.Low life expectancy contributes to population decrease. C.Low levels of birth rates could lead to population increase. D.The world population may strike a gender balance in the future.31.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.Possibilities of population decline. B.Factors of future population growth. C.Drivers of global population exchange. D.Advantages of higher births over deaths.DDutch company Light year has designed an electric car that can travel up to 70 kilometers a day on solar power alone. The company hopes the car can provide an efficient alternative for environmentally friendly travel with less need to rely on special charging facilities.The car has been named Light year 0, after the company's goal to have the world drive the distance of one light-year on solar power by 2035. It will be the world's first production-ready car powered partly by the sun.With five square meters of solar panels on the roof and cover of the vehicle,the car's battery can charge ten kilometers of range for every hour of sunshine while parked or driving. The car can also be charged from a regular home power socket just like any electric vehicle. However, to charge more quickly, electric vehicles need special charging facilities. And Light year CEO Lex Hoefsloot believes that current charging facilities won't be able to keep up with the growing demand for electric cars. So Light year 0 steps in.Using the sun as a power source means the Light year 0 can be driven for weeks or months without needing to charge the battery—depending on the distance you drive each day. For a daily commute（通勤）of 35 kilometers in a sunny country， the car won't need charging for up to seven months,according to the developers.In cloudy climates like in the Netherlands,the car would need charging an average of every two months, they say. Without solar power, the range of the battery alone is estimated at about 625 kilometers.Although saving money on fuel is a long-term benefit of the Light year 0, the immediate costs are pretty high. With the first models costing $ 262,000, the car is four times more expensive than the Tesla Model 3 Long Range, which can drive about 575 kilometers on a single charge. Light year says it aims to release a cheaper model by 2025,which it hopes will cost around $31,000.32.What do we know about Light year 0 from the first two paragraphs?A.It can only be powered by the sun. B.It can drive the distance of one light-year. C.It will be further tested before mass production. D.It reduces the dependency on charging facilities. 33.Why is Light year 0 designed according to Lex Hoefsloot?A.To cut down the cost of current cars. B. To market more advanced electric cars. C.To ease the shortage of charging devices. D.To ensure the driving safety of electric cars.34.What is an advantage of Light year 0 according to Paragraph 4?A.It can avoid frequent recharging. B.It is best for long-distance travel. C.Its battery doesn't need charging. D.It can reach the speed of 625 km/h.35.What is the best title for the text?A.Vehicles Designed to Save Money B.Tesla Model 3 Aiming to Be Cheaper C.Electric Cars Powered on Solar Energy D.Vehicles Needing Special Charging Facilities 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Have you ever thought about what sand means to our lives？___36___，but we are always ignoring its contributions to our lives.

Each session is worse than the last.”I couldn't believe it. This young man had been going through chemo treatments, attending school and attending football practice every day. I asked him what his football coaches said to him about his cancer. He said,“No one knows,except for a few close friends. I don't want people to treat me differently or look at me as a cancer kid.”Then Griffin missed school again. I went and met him for lunch. He told me he just wanted to reach his sixteenth birthday, but it wasn't going to happen anymore because he'd decided to stop the chemo and give up. It was just too painful. I remember hugging him as we parted, not wanting to let go, as I did not know if I would see him again.Two days later, to my surprise, Griffin was at his desk. He asked if we could talk after school. When the final bell of the afternoon rang, the door opened and Griffin walked in with a smile on his face.“Yesterday morning,I woke up in so much pain that I couldn't get out of bed,”he said. “I just wanted to die, to be with my mother again. But then I saw her in the room with me. She looked like an angel. I heard her shout,‘Get up! Get up!'I knew she wanted me to keep going. I got out of bed and decided to start treatment again."Griffin and I talked much that day.On Griffin's graduation day,I had to give a speech to accept the Teacher of the Year award. I asked Griffin if I could talk about him and his story,and he agreed as long as I didn't mention his name because he still didn't want to be known as a cancer kid. 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。    湖北省部分市州 2023年元月高三年级联合调研考试·英语参考答案第一部分 听力（共20小题，满分30分）1—5  ACCCB  6—10  ABCBA  11—15  CBAAB  16—20  CBAAB 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，20小题，满分50分）21—23  CAB  24—27  BDAD  28—31  CBAB  32—35  DCAC  36—40  DAFBE 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节41—45 BCADC   46—50 ADABB   51—55 DCDCA 第二节56.companies  57.receiving  58.on/upon  59.which    60.were done  61.conducted  62.or        63.a        64.extremely  65.choseA【语篇解读】本文为一篇旅游指南，第一节One possible version:Ladies and gentlemen,Good afternoon! Welcome to the speech contest! Let's extend our warmest welcome to the guests and judges! Firstly let me introduce the procedures/arrangements of this contest.There are ten contestants in total, who will deliver their speeches entitled“Promoting Traditional Chinese Culture”one by one. Following each speech, judges are supposed to grade it.   At the end of the contest, our headmaster will announce the final winners. What excites us most must be the prize-awarding session when the top three will be granted certificates. Let's wait and see who will be the winners! Are you ready for their wonderful performances?Now let's welcome contestant No. 1!第二节One possible version:Tears fell from my face during my speech as I looked at Griffin. In my speech, I mentioned a student whom we almost lost but was still here. By using Griffin's example,I spoke to the audience about courage and how it allowed us to "Get Up" when life's pains pinned us to the ground. During my speech, many in the audience were moved to tears, Griffin included. My speech was greeted with thunderous applause,my heart swelling with pride.It's been some years since then,and Griffin and I still meet up. What didn't kill him eventually made him stronger. He did set all of us a good example,whose inspiring story even has helped a lot of people get up and keep going in face of difficulties. When I express my gratitude and admiration for his story, he says simply,“It will mean all the pain I have endured is worth it. Don't give up before the miracle happens."附：听力录音原稿Text 1W: I'm a nurse at the children's hospital on Banker Street. What about you, Henry?M: I'm a sales clerk at the local department store.
