【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了超加工食品（UPF）的普及程度、其对健康的负面影响以及对环境造成的严重影响。
【8题详解】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The mst serius envirnmental impacts f UPF-rich diets mainly cme frm the pst-farm stages, especially frm the final prduct creatin and packaging prcesses.(富含超加工食品的饮食对环境最严重的影响主要来自农场后的加工阶段，尤其是最终产品的制作和包装过程。)”可知，富含超加工食品的饮食对环境最严重的影响主要来自农场后的加工阶段，尤其是最终产品的制作和包装过程。故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“The massive waste generated by ver-packaged UPF is anther factr t cnsider. Their plastic packaging desn’t degrade (降解) in landfills r in nature and has a dramatic impact n sil health and life in the sea.(过度包装的超加工食品产生的大量垃圾是另一个需要考虑的因素。它们的塑料包装在……或自然界中都不会降解，这对土壤健康和海洋生物有着巨大的影响。)”可知，这里在讨论超加工食品过度包装产生的大量垃圾，尤其是塑料包装的问题，提到塑料包装在“landfills”或者在自然界中都不会降解，并且对土壤健康和海洋生物有巨大影响。根据“在自然界中”可推测，“landfills”的意思“垃圾可被埋的地方”相关。选项A“Places where waste is buried undergrund.(垃圾被埋在地下的地方)”与此相符。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The envirnmental impact f ultra-prcessed fds cannt be ignred any lnger. As we becme mre and mre cnscius abut what we buy and hw it is prduced, we hld the respnsibility t advcate fr change.(超加工食品对环境的影响再也不容忽视了。随着我们对所购买的东西以及其生产方式越来越关注，我们有责任倡导改变。)”可知，作者认为超加工食品对环境的影响不能再被忽视了，并且我们有责任倡导改变，这表明作者对超加工食品对环境的影响持否定态度。故选B。

【16题详解】
根据空前“The fact was that I was far away frm my cuntry with a ttally new culture and new peple and I became nervus because I had n experience f getting adjusted with a whle new place, language and culture.(事实上，我远离自己的国家，置身于一个有着全新文化和陌生人群的环境中，我变得紧张起来，因为我没有适应一个全新的地方、语言和文化的经验。)”以及空后“Speaking English fluently and maintaining my cnfidence when chatting with each persn here psed anther significant challenge fr me.(流利地说英语以及在这里与每个人交谈时保持自信，对我来说是另一个巨大的挑战。)”可知，此处强调适应新环境、语言和文化对作者来说是一个很大的挑战。选项A“This was a big challenge fr me.(这对我来说是一个很大的挑战。)”符合语境，其中的“a big challenge”和空后的“anther significant challenge”逻辑一致。故选A。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Since I landed in Canada, I’ve started facing a lt f prblems that I knew I wuld face.(自从我抵达加拿大，我就开始面临许多我知道自己会遇到的问题。)”可知，作者一到达加拿大，就做好了面对很多问题的准备。选项C“Hwever, I was still at a lss smetimes.(然而，我有时仍然会感到茫然不知所措。)”与上文形成转折，指出即便有心理准备，作者有时候还是感到茫然不知所措。同时引出下文“It happened especially when it came t figuring ut hw t fix it r make the necessary adjustments here.(尤其是当涉及到如何解决这些问题或在这里做出必要的调整时)”即，作者在需要做出调整或者需要解决问题的时候，会感到不知所措。故选C。
【18题详解】
根据上文“I wasn’t able t cmmunicate with peple s easily because the accent here in Canada wasn’t familiar t me. Canadians use different intnatin and stress.(我不能很容易地与人交流，因为加拿大这里的口音我不熟悉。加拿大人使用不同的语调，并且对单词有不同的重音。)”可知，作者不熟悉加拿大的口音。选项G“That directly cntributed t my hesitatin in talking with peple arund me.(这直接导致我在与周围的人交谈时犹豫不决。)”延续上文内容，指出由于作者不熟悉加拿大的口音，所以作者在与周围的人交谈时会犹豫不决。故选G。
【19题详解】
根据空后“Thse lng cnversatins were grwing up my cnfidence level.(那些长时间的交谈增强了我的自信心。)”可推测，空处和长时间的交谈相关。选项D“I als started t talk with my friends in English.(我也开始用英语和我的朋友们交谈。)”提及作者开始用英语和朋友们交谈，而这些交谈增加了作者的自信。故选D。
【20题详解】

I used t be a lnely girl sitting at the back f the classrm. Having failed the cllege entrance exams and changed schls twice, I seldm smiled. Every day I wuld sit at the desk, staring int textbks and exercises, mtinless and heavy-hearted. Hwever, my classmates were in a different picture. They were playing, laughing and chatting delightedly. Besides, I hated it when they were always answering the teachers’ questins, ludly and cnfidently. Obviusly, I had n friends in this fiercely cmpetitive class.
Life is harder fr senir students. Hardly des a day g by withut exercises r tests. Every time when the scres came ut mine wuldn’t be the first r secnd but last. I was especially tired f the endless exercises and exams, which I seemingly wuld never d well in. I was under a lt f pressure, feeling like a fish being fried in a pan.
Hanging ver me was a dark clud. The nly dim light came frm Mr. Smith. Every time I stepped int the classrm, he welcmed me with a warm smile; every time my gaze began t wander ver the classrm r stare ut f the windw, his caring eyes wuld draw me back t his class. Besides, he was the nly teacher wh invited me t the ffice, talking abut my studies and scres. I remembered when I came ut f his ffice, I felt refreshed believing that I culd wrk harder.
I was feeling everything was changing fr the better. I prepared hard fr the final exam f the first semester, desiring t prve that I was nt the last ne. S befre Mr. Smith tld us the test result, I was expecting smething gd in stre fr me.
But I was still the last ne in the class. A burst f sadness and shame cnsuming me, I was heartbrken.

【参考范文】
Right at that mment, Mr. Smith invited me t his ffice. Hesitantly, I walked int the ffice. Mr. Smith greeted me with a smile. As he began talking, nt abut my grades r mistakes, but abut my ptential and perseverance, it became apparent that this talk was ttally a different ne. He didn’t blame me. Instead, he praised my resilience and determinatin. He encuraged me t embrace my struggles, reminding me that success was never a straight path. In his eyes, I culd see his belief in me, and I knew I shuld never quit.
Finally, the cllege admissin letter came. I held it in my shaking hands, dubting whether I was in a wrld f fantasy. But as I pened the envelpe, I culdn’t believe my eyes. Despite all the dds, I gt admitted! I stared at the letter in disbelief fr a lng time. It felt like the dawn after a seemingly endless night, a reward fr the perseverance I didn’t knw I had until Mr. Smith shwed me. Tears welling up in my eyes. Mr. Smith might never knw hw much his encuragement might mean t me in my tughest time.
