A
lf you are longing for a hike in Alaska and aren't sure where to start，here are our favorites. There's something for all levels of skills and ambitions.
The Kenai River Trail
A half mile down this trail are wonderful views of the Kenai River Canyon. There are really two trailheads(小道的起点); the main“upper" trail starts at mile 0.6 of Skilak Lake Rd，and the other at mile 2.3.
Turnagain Arm Trail
This 11-mile hike begins at Potter Trailhead (Mile 115). Initially used by AlaskaNatives, the trail，can also be accessible to points along the way: McHugh Creck(Mile 112)，Rainbow(Mile 108) and Windy(Mile 107).
lditarod National Historic Trail
The National Historic Iditarod Trail is a 24-mile hike used by gold miners and sled-dog teams until 1918，when the Alaska Railroad was finished. It's a two-to-three day hike through superb mountain scenery to Girdwood( where it's known as the Crow Pass Trail)，and is the region's best backpack adventure.
put up a tent at Echo Bend(Mile 3), or rent one of two yurts(毡房)($65 per night) close by. For a shorter outing you can turn around at the Perch，then return to the Dew Mound Trail at Echo Bend and then to the Nature Center，making this a scenic 8-mile trip.
Reed Lakes Trail
Two alpine lakes，waterfalls，glaciers and towering granite(花岗岩) walls: the7-to-9-mile Reed Lakes Trail is one of the most wonderful hikes in the region, and worth the climb. Once you reach upper Reed Lake，continue 1 mile to Bomber Glacier，where the ruin of a B-29 bomber lies in memorial to six men who died in a 1957 crash.
21. Which of the following was originally used by Alaska Natives?
A. The Kenai River Trail.
B. Turnagain Arm Trail.

D. Reed Lakes Trail.
22. At which place can hikers set up a tent?

D. Turnagain Arm.
23. What will visitors see at Bomber Glacier?
A.A memorial to six heroes.

B
Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.
Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.
But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him，not even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics，somebody stole his shoes. Thorpe improvised(临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.
He still went on to win two gold medals—winning each event he competed in except for one，the javelin(标枪). The javelin was the only event he didn't win，probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time，he didn't know that he could throw it with a running start. He threw it standing still and was placed second.
At the Olympics，he also took part in the decathlon(十项全能运动). He finished first in two events，third in four events，and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a dominating force that couldn't be stopped and just kept on going.
l think Paul Dughi said it best, "It's hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn't matter what kind he wore.”
24. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.
B. Thorpe's success was no guarantee of a better life.
C. Thorpe's career brought him both gains and losses.
D. Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.
25. Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot?
A. To prevent the foot from injury.
B. To make the shoe fit the foot.
C. To stop the shoe from being stolen.
D. To show his problem-solving skills.
26. What most likely led to Thorpe's failure to win the javelin?
A. Loss of his own sports shoes.
B. A casual attitude towards the event.
C. Lack of experience in the event.
D. A shortage of talent for the event.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe?
A. Loyal and enthusiastic.
B. Genuine and creative.
C. Tough and strong-minded.
D. Selfless and good-tempered.
C
Hundreds of native North American plants，often dismissed as weeds，deserve a lot more respect，according to a new study. These plants，distant cousins of foods like sunflowers and lettuce(莴苣)，actually represent a botanical treasure now facing increased threats from climate change and habitat loss. The crops that the human race now depends on, including grains like wheat and tree fruit like peaches，originally were selected or bred(培育)from plants that grew wild hundreds or thousands of years ago. In the U.S.，there are wild ancestors of blueberries，sweet potatoes，onions，potatoes，and many other food crops. "Some of them are quite common,” says Colin Khoury，a research scientist at the International Center for Tropical Agriculture. “Wild lettuce plants grow along sidewalks，or in backyards，but go unrecognized.”
Other crop relatives are rare and threatened. One of Khoury's favorites is the paradoxical sun flower." It grows just in wetlands of the deserts of New Mexico and Texas. Little salty areas where there's a little bit of water beneath the soil,” he says. So plant growers crossbred it with commercial sunflowers and created new varieties that can grow in places where the soil contains more salt. Other wild relatives may be hiding similarly remarkable gifts，Khoury says，such as genes that could help their domesticated relatives survive diseases, or deal with pests.
Khoury and some of his colleagues just finished a survey of about 600 wild crop relatives that grow in North America，and they found that most of these plants are threatened by things like fires，farming and development. The scientists argue that they deserve more protection. For one thing，“gene banks”should collect and preserve them. In addition，these plants need more protection in their natural habitat.
According to Khoury，that doesn't necessarily mean setting aside land for them. In many cases，the plants already are growing on public land that's managed by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) or the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). “It's more about just being aware that these plants actually exist,” he says.
28. What did the new study mainly focus on?
A. Endangered plant species.
B. Wild relatives of food crops.
C. The impacts of climate change.
D. The threats from plant habitat loss.
29. What do we know about the paradoxical sunflower?
A. It needs much water to grow well.
B. It grows along sidewalks or in backyards.
C. It seems capable of surviving various diseases.
D. It helps commercial sunflowers adapt to salty soil.
30. How might the scientists feel about their survey results?
A. Relieved. B. Concerned. C. Annoyed. D. Critical.
31. What might Khoury suggest the BLM do?
A. Join hands with the USFS.
B. Set aside land for wild plants.
C. Collect genes of threatened crop species.
D. Learn about plants on its managed land.
D
lt isn't just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can find awe in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “"awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.
In the study，52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the“awe group”were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked. "We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower，for example,”Sturm says. For example，one participant from the awe group wrote about“the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy(嘎吱响)underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace their expanding world. However，people in the other group were less focused on the world around them. One participant wrote，“I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”
In addition，participants were asked to take selfies(自拍) in the beginning, middle，and end of each walk. Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a "small self”，in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe，our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us, "Sturm says." Awe affects our social relationships because it helps us to feel more connected with the world，universe，and other people.”Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the intensity of their smiles in the selfies，and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater positive emotions in general，including more joy and gratitude.”
Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group，the researchers discovered. But walking more didn't result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe，and not just in spending time exercising.
32. What were participants in the “awe group" required to do in Paragraph 2?
A. To take a walk each week.
B. To focus on their inner world.
C. To collect leaves after the rain.
D. To explore with childlike curiosity.
33. What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?
A. Close-up images with wide smiles.
B. More attention on themselves.
C. Simply the background scenery.
D. Small figures with bigger smiles.
34. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Experiencing awe counts.
B. More walks, more joy.
C. Exercises can benefit us.
D. Awe comes with walking.
35. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness
B. Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone
C. Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions
D. Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health

There are many friends that will come into your life-some will gradually lose touch，some will be getting closer，and some you will actively choose not to be friends with. 36 But your old friends seem to stick around，and no matter how near or far they are，they continue to be a part of your life.
From old friends we learn how much we grow. 37 They encourage us to do better and even they force us to do better. We know that if we're happy with who we've become，they may play a role in that process.
The sense of freedom that comes with old friends is new friends failing to bring. You don't need to make a good impression with people who know you well. 38 The youth is often filled with many playful moments and careless choices. There is a vivid recollection of difficult periods that you have been through.
With old friends，you realize true friendships are difficult to create，to cultivate，and to hold onto. 39
Old friends hold a mirror in front of us and allow us to see how far we've gone, and how far we still have to go to achieve our goals. 40 Old friends remind us that the past is both good and bad，and that the future is something to look forward to. No matter how time goes by，when we're with our old friends，we will feel at home----where we can be stupid and happy with people who love us.
A. When you're a child，making friends does not require too much effort.
B. With old friends there is often great laughter when you share your past.
C. They are the people who have similar experience and simple innocence.
D. This fact not only exists in our schooldays, but also will continue to the years to come.
E. The gratefulness that you have for having a friend long enough to call them an “old friend” feels wonderful.
F. Old friends show us all the parts that we still need to change，and some of the parts we may never change.
G. They're the people who've usually witnessed everything from our major accomplishments to our small mistakes.

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。
Christmas Day was coming. I was just a kid then, and my big sister told me there was no Santa Claus. I fled to my Grandma because she would be straight with me. l knew Grandma always told me the truth. Grandma was home，and I told her everything. She was ready for me. “No Santa Claus!” She shouted. “Ridiculous! Don't believe it. That rumor has been going around for years，and it makes me mad, plain mad.”
“Now，put on your coat，and let's go.”
“Go where, Grandma?” l asked. "Where" turned out to be Kerby's General Store. the one store in town that had a little bit of just about everything. As we walked through its doors，Grandma handed me ten dollars.“Take this money.”she said，"and buy something for someone who needs it. I'll wait for you in the car.” Then she turned and walked out of Kerby's.
l was only eight years old. I'd often gone shopping with my mother，but never had I shopped for anything all by myself. The store seemed big and crowded，full of people competing to finish their Christmas shopping. For a few moments I just stood there，confused，holding that ten-dollar bill，wondering what to buy and who to buy it for. I suddenly thought of Bobby Decker，who was a kid with bad breath and messy hair. He sat right behind me in Mrs. Pollock's grade-two class.
Bobby Decker didn't have a coat. l knew that because he never went out for recess(休息) during the winter. His mother always wrote a note，telling the teacher that he had a cough，but we kids knew that Bobby Decker didn't have a cough，and he didn't have a coat. I fingered the ten dollar bill with growing excitement. I would buy Bobby Decker a coat! I settled on a red one，which looked really warm，and he would like that.
“Is this a Christmas present for someone?”the lady behind the counter asked kindly，as I laid my ten dollars down.“Yes.”
The nice lady smiled at me，put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.
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。
That evening，Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper.
Grandma and I waited breathlessly in the bush for Bobby Decker's front door to open.

阅读理解
A篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些去阿拉斯加远足时所建议去的地方。
21.B。细节理解题。根据Turnagain Arm Trail中的"“Initially used by Alaska Natives，the trail，can also be accessible
to points along the way:McHugh Creek(Mile 112)，Rainbow (Mile 108) and Windy (Mile 107).(这条小道最初由阿拉斯加原住民使用……)”可知,Turnagain Arm Trail最初是阿拉斯加原住民使用的。故选B。
22.C。细节理解题。根据Iditarod National Historic Trail 中的“Put up a tent at Echo Bend (Mile 3)，or rent one of two yurts(毡房)($ 65 per night) close by.”可知,徒步旅行者可以在Echo Bend搭帐篷。故选C。
23.C。细节理解题。根据Reed Lakes Trail中的“Once you reach upper Reed Lake，continue 1 mile to Bomber Glacier， where the ruin of a B-29 bomber lies in memorial to six men who died in a 1957 crash.”可知,游客们将在伯默冰川看到B-29轰炸机的残骸,这句话中的“in memorial to”的意思是“是对……的纪念”。故选C。
B篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。介绍了美国印第安人吉姆·索普坎坷的人生经历和他作为运动员所取得的骄人成绩。
24.D。推理判断题。根据第二段可知,吉姆·索普经历了很多苦难,幼年时双胞胎兄弟过世,随后父母双亡,青年时又困扰于种族偏见带来的磨难;以及划线句前面的yet表转折意义,可知,划线部分的意思是虽然索普后来有所成就，但却经历了很多苦难。
25.B。细节理解题。根据第三段的“The shoes were two different sizes.He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.”可知,两只鞋大小不一,因此索普多穿袜子就是为了让鞋合脚。
26.C。细节理解题。根据第四段的“because he had never competed in that event before"可知,他没有参加过标枪比赛,因此比赛经验不足最可能是他失利的原因。
27.C。推理判断题。根据第二段的叙述可知,吉姆·索普成长过程中经历过很多苦难,这很大程度上塑造了他坚韧不 拔的性格,第三段的“But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him.…"正是对他坚韧不拔性格的刻画,由此可知, tough(坚韧的)和strong-minded(意志坚定的)是对他最准确的描述。
C篇
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。我们现在所食用的多种植物都是从远古时期就存在的野生植物嫁接或育种而来。然而,这些植物的“野生远亲”现在却被人们弃之如草芥,没有得到应有的保护和尊重。研究人员认为,这些野生植物在帮助我们现存的植物应对气候变化、病虫害及栖息地丧失方面可以发挥巨大的作用,我们应该对其加大保护力度。
28.B。细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知,这项新研究的研究对象是可食用植物的“野生远亲”。答案选项“Wild relatives of food crops”是原文中的“native North American plants"和“distant cousins of foods”的同义替换表达。
29.D。细节理解题。根据第三段中的".. the paradoxical sunflower...crossbred it with commercial sunflowers and created new varieties that can grow in places where the soil contains more salt"可知," the paradoxical sunflower”与商用向日葵杂交产生的向日葵可适应含盐高的土壤。
30.B。推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Khoury and some of his colleagues .. found that most of these plants are threatened by things like fires，farming and development."可知,科学家们对约600种野生植物进行了调研后发现,其中绝大多数的生存状况不容乐观,受到了诸如火灾、农耕及社会发展的威胁。由此可推知,科学家们对其发现会感到“忧心忡忡”。
31.D。推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知, Khoury认为,保护这些野生植物不是要专门辟出一块地方以供其生 长。在美国林业局(USFS)和美国内政部土地管理局(BLM)的管辖范围内可以发现很多野生植物的踪迹。Khoury进一步表示,保护这些植物的关键在于意识到这些植物的存在。由此可推知,Khoury可能会建议美国内政部土地管理局去了解其管辖范围内的植物,从而保护这些野生植物。
D篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,研究表明怀敬畏之心行路有利于产生积极的情绪。
32.D。细节理解题。根据第二段的第五句(比如,敬畏步行组的一名参与者描写了“秋天美丽的颜色，下雨后,脚下的树叶不再被踩得嘎吱响。”----这种惊奇像孩子们拥抱他们不断延伸的世界时所感受到的那样。)可知,研究人员要求敬畏步行组怀着孩子般的好奇心探索路程。故选D项。
33.D。细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句“Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a ‘small self , in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery.”和倒数第三句“Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study."可知,敬畏步行组的自拍照中,自己的身体只占一小部分,而且面带灿烂的微笑。所以他们的自拍照中,可能显示的是小身形,但是面带灿烂微笑。故选D项。
34.A。推理判断题。最后一段的最后两句提到积极健康情绪产生于心怀敬畏,而非只是简单地花时间锻炼。由此可知,作者在最后一段想传达的是,心怀敬畏才是真正产生影响的。故选A项。
35.C。主旨大意题。结合全文,文章主要介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,尤其是根据第一段的“A new research published in the journal Emotion，found that older adults who took ‘ awe walks’felt more positiveemotions in their daily lives.”和最后一段“Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than thosepeople in the awe group，the researchers discovered. But walking more didn't result in positive change: in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe， and not just in spending time exercising."可知 ,敬畏步行有利于促进积极健康情绪。所以C项“敬畏步行能促进积极的情绪”最适合作为本文标题。故选C项。

With private cars increasing, the traffic jams in our city have become more and more serious, so l, on behalf of the Students' Union, am writing to appeal to everyone to go green.
Through green travel, we can not only contribute to a sustainable environment by saving resources but also have a healthy lifestyle. To achieve that, I suggest that we should first further raise awareness of the importance of green travel. Besides, it's significant for us to ride bicycles or choose public transport instead of private vehicles as much as possible，which can avoid traffic jams and improve our health.
lt is high time that we should travel in a green way. A small act makes a great difference. Let's act now and enjoy a green life!

That evening, Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper. She wrote “To Bobby，From Santa Claus" on it, after which she drove me over to Bobby Decker's house，explaining l was officially one of Santa's helpers. Grandma parked down the street from Bobby's house, and l took a deep breath，and dashed for his front door. Seeing no other people notice us, l put the Christmas present down，pounded his doorbell and then Grandma and l hid in the car.
Grandma and l waited breathlessly in the bush for Bobby Decker's front door to open. Out went Bobby Decker. Seeing the coat in the bag, he looked very astonished and then called his mother to go out. After hearing them say “Thanks”to Santa Claus，I felt very proud of what l had done. At that time, I decided to be Santa's helper forever. It was on that night that l realized the truth that he who has no Christmas in his heart will never find Christmas under a tree.

lf you are longing for a hike in Alaska and aren't sure where to start，here are our favorites. There's something for all levels of skills and ambitions.
The Kenai River Trail
A half mile down this trail are wonderful views of the Kenai River Canyon. There are really two trailheads(小道的起点); the main“upper" trail starts at mile 0.6 of Skilak Lake Rd，and the other at mile 2.3.
Turnagain Arm Trail
This 11-mile hike begins at Potter Trailhead (Mile 115). Initially used by AlaskaNatives, the trail，can also be accessible to points along the way: McHugh Creck(Mile 112)，Rainbow(Mile 108) and Windy(Mile 107).
lditarod National Historic Trail
The National Historic Iditarod Trail is a 24-mile hike used by gold miners and sled-dog teams until 1918，when the Alaska Railroad was finished. It's a two-to-three day hike through superb mountain scenery to Girdwood( where it's known as the Crow Pass Trail)，and is the region's best backpack adventure.
put up a tent at Echo Bend(Mile 3), or rent one of two yurts(毡房)($65 per night) close by. For a shorter outing you can turn around at the Perch，then return to the Dew Mound Trail at Echo Bend and then to the Nature Center，making this a scenic 8-mile trip.
Reed Lakes Trail
Two alpine lakes，waterfalls，glaciers and towering granite(花岗岩) walls: the7-to-9-mile Reed Lakes Trail is one of the most wonderful hikes in the region, and worth the climb. Once you reach upper Reed Lake，continue 1 mile to Bomber Glacier，where the ruin of a B-29 bomber lies in memorial to six men who died in a 1957 crash.
21. Which of the following was originally used by Alaska Natives?
A. The Kenai River Trail.
B. Turnagain Arm Trail.
C. Iditarod National Historic Trail.
D. Reed Lakes Trail.
22. At which place can hikers set up a tent?

Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.
Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.
But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him，not even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics，somebody stole his shoes. Thorpe improvised(临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.
He still went on to win two gold medals—winning each event he competed in except for one，the javelin(标枪). The javelin was the only event he didn't win，probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time，he didn't know that he could throw it with a running start. He threw it standing still and was placed second.
At the Olympics，he also took part in the decathlon(十项全能运动). He finished first in two events，third in four events，and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a dominating force that couldn't be stopped and just kept on going.
l think Paul Dughi said it best, "It's hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn't matter what kind he wore.”
24. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.
B. Thorpe's success was no guarantee of a better life.
C. Thorpe's career brought him both gains and losses.
D. Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.
25. Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot?
A. To prevent the foot from injury.
B. To make the shoe fit the foot.
C. To stop the shoe from being stolen.
D. To show his problem-solving skills.
26. What most likely led to Thorpe's failure to win the javelin?
A. Loss of his own sports shoes.
B. A casual attitude towards the event.
C. Lack of experience in the event.
D. A shortage of talent for the event.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe?
A. Loyal and enthusiastic.
B. Genuine and creative.
C. Tough and strong-minded.
D. Selfless and good-tempered.
C
Hundreds of native North American plants，often dismissed as weeds，deserve a lot more respect，according to a new study. These plants，distant cousins of foods like sunflowers and lettuce(莴苣)，actually represent a botanical treasure now facing increased threats from climate change and habitat loss. The crops that the human race now depends on, including grains like wheat and tree fruit like peaches，originally were selected or bred(培育)from plants that grew wild hundreds or thousands of years ago. In the U.S.，there are wild ancestors of blueberries，sweet potatoes，onions，potatoes，and many other food crops. "Some of them are quite common,” says Colin Khoury，a research scientist at the International Center for Tropical Agriculture. “Wild lettuce plants grow along sidewalks，or in backyards，but go unrecognized.”
Other crop relatives are rare and threatened. One of Khoury's favorites is the paradoxical sun flower." It grows just in wetlands of the deserts of New Mexico and Texas. Little salty areas where there's a little bit of water beneath the soil,” he says. So plant growers crossbred it with commercial sunflowers and created new varieties that can grow in places where the soil contains more salt. Other wild relatives may be hiding similarly remarkable gifts，Khoury says，such as genes that could help their domesticated relatives survive diseases, or deal with pests.
Khoury and some of his colleagues just finished a survey of about 600 wild crop relatives that grow in North America，and they found that most of these plants are threatened by things like fires，farming and development. The scientists argue that they deserve more protection. For one thing，“gene banks”should collect and preserve them. In addition，these plants need more protection in their natural habitat.
According to Khoury，that doesn't necessarily mean setting aside land for them. In many cases，the plants already are growing on public land that's managed by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) or the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). “It's more about just being aware that these plants actually exist,” he says.
28. What did the new study mainly focus on?
A. Endangered plant species.
B. Wild relatives of food crops.
C. The impacts of climate change.
D. The threats from plant habitat loss.
29. What do we know about the paradoxical sunflower?
A. It needs much water to grow well.
B. It grows along sidewalks or in backyards.
C. It seems capable of surviving various diseases.
D. It helps commercial sunflowers adapt to salty soil.
30. How might the scientists feel about their survey results?
A. Relieved. B. Concerned. C. Annoyed. D. Critical.
31. What might Khoury suggest the BLM do?
A. Join hands with the USFS.
B. Set aside land for wild plants.
C. Collect genes of threatened crop species.
D. Learn about plants on its managed land.
D
lt isn't just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can find awe in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “"awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.
In the study，52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the“awe group”were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked. "We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower，for example,”Sturm says. For example，one participant from the awe group wrote about“the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy(嘎吱响)underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace their expanding world. However，people in the other group were less focused on the world around them. One participant wrote，“I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”
In addition，participants were asked to take selfies(自拍) in the beginning, middle，and end of each walk. Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a "small self”，in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe，our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us, "Sturm says." Awe affects our social relationships because it helps us to feel more connected with the world，universe，and other people.”Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the intensity of their smiles in the selfies，and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater positive emotions in general，including more joy and gratitude.”
Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group，the researchers discovered. But walking more didn't result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe，and not just in spending time exercising.
32. What were participants in the “awe group" required to do in Paragraph 2?
A. To take a walk each week.
B. To focus on their inner world.
C. To collect leaves after the rain.
D. To explore with childlike curiosity.
33. What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?
A. Close-up images with wide smiles.
B. More attention on themselves.
C. Simply the background scenery.
D. Small figures with bigger smiles.
34. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Experiencing awe counts.
B. More walks, more joy.
C. Exercises can benefit us.
D. Awe comes with walking.
35. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness
B. Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone
C. Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions
D. Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health

There are many friends that will come into your life-some will gradually lose touch，some will be getting closer，and some you will actively choose not to be friends with. 36 But your old friends seem to stick around，and no matter how near or far they are，they continue to be a part of your life.
From old friends we learn how much we grow. 37 They encourage us to do better and even they force us to do better. We know that if we're happy with who we've become，they may play a role in that process.
The sense of freedom that comes with old friends is new friends failing to bring. You don't need to make a good impression with people who know you well. 38 The youth is often filled with many playful moments and careless choices. There is a vivid recollection of difficult periods that you have been through.
With old friends，you realize true friendships are difficult to create，to cultivate，and to hold onto. 39
Old friends hold a mirror in front of us and allow us to see how far we've gone, and how far we still have to go to achieve our goals. 40 Old friends remind us that the past is both good and bad，and that the future is something to look forward to. No matter how time goes by，when we're with our old friends，we will feel at home----where we can be stupid and happy with people who love us.
A. When you're a child，making friends does not require too much effort.
B. With old friends there is often great laughter when you share your past.
C. They are the people who have similar experience and simple innocence.
D. This fact not only exists in our schooldays, but also will continue to the years to come.
E. The gratefulness that you have for having a friend long enough to call them an “old friend” feels wonderful.
F. Old friends show us all the parts that we still need to change，and some of the parts we may never change.
G. They're the people who've usually witnessed everything from our major accomplishments to our small mistakes.

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。
Christmas Day was coming. I was just a kid then, and my big sister told me there was no Santa Claus. I fled to my Grandma because she would be straight with me. l knew Grandma always told me the truth. Grandma was home，and I told her everything. She was ready for me. “No Santa Claus!” She shouted. “Ridiculous! Don't believe it. That rumor has been going around for years，and it makes me mad, plain mad.”
“Now，put on your coat，and let's go.”
“Go where, Grandma?” l asked. "Where" turned out to be Kerby's General Store. the one store in town that had a little bit of just about everything. As we walked through its doors，Grandma handed me ten dollars.“Take this money.”she said，"and buy something for someone who needs it. I'll wait for you in the car.” Then she turned and walked out of Kerby's.
l was only eight years old. I'd often gone shopping with my mother，but never had I shopped for anything all by myself. The store seemed big and crowded，full of people competing to finish their Christmas shopping. For a few moments I just stood there，confused，holding that ten-dollar bill，wondering what to buy and who to buy it for. I suddenly thought of Bobby Decker，who was a kid with bad breath and messy hair. He sat right behind me in Mrs. Pollock's grade-two class.
Bobby Decker didn't have a coat. l knew that because he never went out for recess(休息) during the winter. His mother always wrote a note，telling the teacher that he had a cough，but we kids knew that Bobby Decker didn't have a cough，and he didn't have a coat. I fingered the ten dollar bill with growing excitement. I would buy Bobby Decker a coat! I settled on a red one，which looked really warm，and he would like that.
“Is this a Christmas present for someone?”the lady behind the counter asked kindly，as I laid my ten dollars down.“Yes.”
The nice lady smiled at me，put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.
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。
That evening，Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper.
Grandma and I waited breathlessly in the bush for Bobby Decker's front door to open.

阅读理解
A篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些去阿拉斯加远足时所建议去的地方。
21.B。细节理解题。根据Turnagain Arm Trail中的"“Initially used by Alaska Natives，the trail，can also be accessible
to points along the way:McHugh Creek(Mile 112)，Rainbow (Mile 108) and Windy (Mile 107).(这条小道最初由阿拉斯加原住民使用……)”可知,Turnagain Arm Trail最初是阿拉斯加原住民使用的。故选B。
22.C。细节理解题。根据Iditarod National Historic Trail 中的“Put up a tent at Echo Bend (Mile 3)，or rent one of two yurts(毡房)($ 65 per night) close by.”可知,徒步旅行者可以在Echo Bend搭帐篷。故选C。
23.C。细节理解题。根据Reed Lakes Trail中的“Once you reach upper Reed Lake，continue 1 mile to Bomber Glacier， where the ruin of a B-29 bomber lies in memorial to six men who died in a 1957 crash.”可知,游客们将在伯默冰川看到B-29轰炸机的残骸,这句话中的“in memorial to”的意思是“是对……的纪念”。故选C。
B篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。介绍了美国印第安人吉姆·索普坎坷的人生经历和他作为运动员所取得的骄人成绩。
24.D。推理判断题。根据第二段可知,吉姆·索普经历了很多苦难,幼年时双胞胎兄弟过世,随后父母双亡,青年时又困扰于种族偏见带来的磨难;以及划线句前面的yet表转折意义,可知,划线部分的意思是虽然索普后来有所成就，但却经历了很多苦难。
25.B。细节理解题。根据第三段的“The shoes were two different sizes.He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.”可知,两只鞋大小不一,因此索普多穿袜子就是为了让鞋合脚。
26.C。细节理解题。根据第四段的“because he had never competed in that event before"可知,他没有参加过标枪比赛,因此比赛经验不足最可能是他失利的原因。
27.C。推理判断题。根据第二段的叙述可知,吉姆·索普成长过程中经历过很多苦难,这很大程度上塑造了他坚韧不 拔的性格,第三段的“But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him.…"正是对他坚韧不拔性格的刻画,由此可知, tough(坚韧的)和strong-minded(意志坚定的)是对他最准确的描述。
C篇
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。我们现在所食用的多种植物都是从远古时期就存在的野生植物嫁接或育种而来。然而,这些植物的“野生远亲”现在却被人们弃之如草芥,没有得到应有的保护和尊重。研究人员认为,这些野生植物在帮助我们现存的植物应对气候变化、病虫害及栖息地丧失方面可以发挥巨大的作用,我们应该对其加大保护力度。
28.B。细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知,这项新研究的研究对象是可食用植物的“野生远亲”。答案选项“Wild relatives of food crops”是原文中的“native North American plants"和“distant cousins of foods”的同义替换表达。
29.D。细节理解题。根据第三段中的".. the paradoxical sunflower...crossbred it with commercial sunflowers and created new varieties that can grow in places where the soil contains more salt"可知," the paradoxical sunflower”与商用向日葵杂交产生的向日葵可适应含盐高的土壤。
30.B。推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Khoury and some of his colleagues .. found that most of these plants are threatened by things like fires，farming and development."可知,科学家们对约600种野生植物进行了调研后发现,其中绝大多数的生存状况不容乐观,受到了诸如火灾、农耕及社会发展的威胁。由此可推知,科学家们对其发现会感到“忧心忡忡”。
31.D。推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知, Khoury认为,保护这些野生植物不是要专门辟出一块地方以供其生 长。在美国林业局(USFS)和美国内政部土地管理局(BLM)的管辖范围内可以发现很多野生植物的踪迹。Khoury进一步表示,保护这些植物的关键在于意识到这些植物的存在。由此可推知,Khoury可能会建议美国内政部土地管理局去了解其管辖范围内的植物,从而保护这些野生植物。
D篇
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,研究表明怀敬畏之心行路有利于产生积极的情绪。
32.D。细节理解题。根据第二段的第五句(比如,敬畏步行组的一名参与者描写了“秋天美丽的颜色，下雨后,脚下的树叶不再被踩得嘎吱响。”----这种惊奇像孩子们拥抱他们不断延伸的世界时所感受到的那样。)可知,研究人员要求敬畏步行组怀着孩子般的好奇心探索路程。故选D项。
33.D。细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句“Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a ‘small self , in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery.”和倒数第三句“Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study."可知,敬畏步行组的自拍照中,自己的身体只占一小部分,而且面带灿烂的微笑。所以他们的自拍照中,可能显示的是小身形,但是面带灿烂微笑。故选D项。
34.A。推理判断题。最后一段的最后两句提到积极健康情绪产生于心怀敬畏,而非只是简单地花时间锻炼。由此可知,作者在最后一段想传达的是,心怀敬畏才是真正产生影响的。故选A项。
35.C。主旨大意题。结合全文,文章主要介绍一项有关awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究,尤其是根据第一段的“A new research published in the journal Emotion，found that older adults who took ‘ awe walks’felt more positiveemotions in their daily lives.”和最后一段“Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than thosepeople in the awe group，the researchers discovered. But walking more didn't result in positive change: in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe， and not just in spending time exercising."可知 ,敬畏步行有利于促进积极健康情绪。所以C项“敬畏步行能促进积极的情绪”最适合作为本文标题。故选C项。
七选五阅读

40.F。上文"Old friends hold a mirror in front of us and allow us to see how far we've gone， and how far we still have to go to achieve our goals."说明老朋友像我们的一面镜子;后文“Old friends remind us that the past is both good and bad，and that the future is something to look forward to.”说明老朋友会告诉我们过去的好与不好,F项承上启下,他们可以告诉我们所有需要改变的地方,即使有些地方我们可能永远不会改变。故选F项。

应用文写作：
With private cars increasing, the traffic jams in our city have become more and more serious, so l, on behalf of the Students' Union, am writing to appeal to everyone to go green.
Through green travel, we can not only contribute to a sustainable environment by saving resources but also have a healthy lifestyle. To achieve that, I suggest that we should first further raise awareness of the importance of green travel. Besides, it's significant for us to ride bicycles or choose public transport instead of private vehicles as much as possible，which can avoid traffic jams and improve our health.
lt is high time that we should travel in a green way. A small act makes a great difference. Let's act now and enjoy a green life!

读后续写:
That evening, Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper. She wrote “To Bobby，From Santa Claus" on it, after which she drove me over to Bobby Decker's house，explaining l was officially one of Santa's helpers. Grandma parked down the street from Bobby's house, and l took a deep breath，and dashed for his front door. Seeing no other people notice us, l put the Christmas present down，pounded his doorbell and then Grandma and l hid in the car.
Grandma and l waited breathlessly in the bush for Bobby Decker's front door to open. Out went Bobby Decker. Seeing the coat in the bag, he looked very astonished and then called his mother to go out. After hearing them say “Thanks”to Santa Claus，I felt very proud of what l had done. At that time, I decided to be Santa's helper forever. It was on that night that l realized the truth that he who has no Christmas in his heart will never find Christmas under a tree.
