He knows exactly what to look for, as he was trained as a child by his grandfather on how to locate the animals and their eggs. Back then, his family traded or ate them. It wasn’t about getting rich. It was just a part of life.But Manlugay has since turned over a new leaf. Now, he uses his tracking skills to protect the sea turtles that visit the beaches he lives by. “I’ve learned to love this work,” Manlugay acknowledged in an interview. “We didn’t know poaching (偷猎) was illegal and that we should not eat turtle eggs and meat.”Manlugay carefully moved each egg into a bucket he brought with him, as well as some sand from the turtle nests, so as to hand them over to Coastal Underwater Resource Management Actions(CURMA)— the group leading the conservation program on the beaches.The conservation effort established in 2009 has transformed sea turtle poachers into helpers, offering training to help save thousands of turtles and keep their eggs from ending up in markets and on plates. “We talked to the poachers, and it turned out poaching was just another means for them to earn a living,” explained Carlos Tamayo, the director of operations. “They had no choices.”Once collected, the eggs are then reburied in protected areas to ensure the hatch. Another former poacher, Jessie Cabagbag, who grew up eating turtle meat and eggs, takes care of one of the protected areas now. “I stopped poaching when we underwent training and were taught that what we have been doing was illegal and that these species of turtles are endangered,” he explained. Now, he admits, “I am truly proud. I am happy that I can contribute to the conservation of the turtles.”24. Why did Johnny Manlugay hunt turtles as a child?A. To make a living. B. To make a fortune.C. To protect them. D. To locate them.25. How does Johnny Manlugay deal with the turtle eggs nowadays?A. He sells them and gets profits.B. He collects and hatches them carefully.C. He buries them under sand near the turtle nests.D. He hands them over to a conservation organization.26. What does CURMA do according to the text?A. Hide sea turtle eggs in the markets.B. Help former poachers earn a living.C. Persuade poachers to protect sea turtles.D. Protect all kinds of endangered animals.27. What’s the best title for this passage?A. Local Philippinos Search for Sea Turtle Eggs.B. Former Turtle Egg Poachers Turn into Protectors.C. Sea Turtles are Well Protected in the Philippines.D. The Conservation Program Saves Endangered Turtles.CDo you often compare yourself to other people? Comparisons can help to make decisions and motivate you but they can also pull you into a comparison trap.Whether it’s the number of goals you’ve scored at football or how many books you’ve read, it’s easy to compare yourself to someone else. Scientists say it’s a natural behaviour that helps humans learn from each other, live happily together and achieve more. Although comparing can be good for you, it’s not always helpful and you can find yourself stuck in a comparison trap. This is when you always measure yourself against others and base your feelings on how well others seem to be doing.Becky Goddard-Hill is a child psychologist and author of Create Your Own Confidence. She says that comparisons can make us feel good and bad about ourselves. “Comparing up” means seeing someone doing better than you and using that to inspire yourself to aim higher and try harder. However, Goddard-Hill says, “Sometimes it can make you feel rubbish about yourself and knock your confidence.” “Comparing down” is when you see someone who seems like they’re not doing as well as you. This might make you feel you’re doing well, says Goddard-Hill, but it can also stop you wanting to improve.“If your feelings depend on what other people are doing, surround yourself with cheerleaders,” suggests Goddard-Hill. Notice how people make you feel and spend time with friends who celebrate your strengths rather than compare themselves to you.If you follow social media accounts that make you feel you are failing in any way, unfollow them. “Find ones that make you laugh or show you lovely places instead,” she says. Finally, focus on your own achievements and how you can improve. “The best person you can compete with is yourself,” says Goddard-Hill.28. How does a comparison trap affect us?A. It helps us focus on our own behaviour.B. It stops us from learning from each other.C. It prevents us from living happily together.D. It makes us care little about our true feelings.29. What’s true about “Comparing up” and “Comparing down”?A. The latter may encourage us to appreciate others.B. The former may help us try harder and gain confidence.C. The latter may fail to help us make self-improvement.D. The former may stop us from learning from role models.30. What does Goddard-Hill suggest?A. Aiming to be our best.B. Trying to be the best.C. Trying to be a cheerleader.D. Valuing others’ achievements.31. In which section of the magazine can you find the passage?A. Politics. C. Science. B. Health. D. Entertainment.DBad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails, Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative, but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website. He and a pen colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch On.”32. What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to?A. News reports. B. Research papers.C. Private e-mails. D. Daily conversations.33. What can we infer about people like Debbie Downer?A. They’re socially inactive.  B. They’re good at telling stories.C. They’re inconsiderate of others. D. They’re careful with their words.34. Which tended to be the most e-mailed according to Dr. Berger’s research?A. Sports news. B. Science articles.C. Personal accounts. D. Financial reviews.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Sad Stories Travel Far and WideB. Online News Attracts More PeopleC. Reading Habits Change with the TimesD. Good News Beats Bad on Social Networks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。Hilde’s father was a reporter.

I woke up on time, ate breakfast and did some last minute studying for my first hour math test. I was confident of getting good grades. Then I left my house. Ten minutes later, I sat by my friends on the bus. We were busily chatting about how we spend our weekend when, THUMP! Ryan tripped over(被...绊倒) someone’s foot and fell onto the floor between the two rows of seats.Everyone on the bus laughed crazily. Ryan picked himself up and made his way to an empty seat. He tried to laugh with us, but his face was red with embarrassment. The rest of the morning flew by. I did well in my math test. I read two more chapters of To Kill a Mokingbird in English class. It wasn’t long before the lunch bell sounded.I met my friends from the cheerleading team in the dining hall. Then I couldn’t help but notice Ryan is a few tables over, sitting alone. He caught me looking. I smiled at him quickly and turned away.When we finished eating, we headed out to the courtyard to practice a cheer we wanted to do at that night’s football game. After a little practice, we nailed(敲定) the cheer, so we decided we only needed to go through it one last time. Again, just like the rest of my day so far, the cheer was going great. I raised my leg for one last toe(脚趾) touch. RIIIPPP! I felt my jeans split(裂开) down the middle of my backside.I froze. I didn’t know what to do but stayed still. Then I heard people laughing, and I saw them pointing. Trying to cover myself with my hands, I tried to laugh too, but I felt tears began to escape from my eyes.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。Then I saw Ryan walking towards me.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________But Ryan didn’t laugh._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________   华附南海实验高中2023届强化考（二）英语答案第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 50分）21-23 BCA 24-27 ADCB 28-31 DCAB 32-35 ACBD 36-40：DFBAC第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题 1分，满分 15分）41-45 BACDA 46-50 DACDC 51-55 BCABD第二节语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）56. its 57. from 58. application（s） 59. be used60. while/but 61. requires  62. written  63. growing64. which 65. safer第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分）第一节应用文写作（共1小题；满分15分）Dear Jim,I’m so glad to hear your future education plan in Beijing in your last letter.

I remembered he fell on the floor of bus and was laughed at by all of us. I shouldn’t have laughed at him when he was trapped in such an embarrassing situation. With this in mind, I was desperately regretful, afraid that he would tease me in front of so many people. Standing rooted to the ground, I was waiting for him to laugh at me in revenge.But Ryan didn’t laugh. Instead, he stepped forward to me, took off his coat and covered my jeans with it. I was surprised beyond words, feeling a warm current welling up in my heart. How I regretted having made fun of him on the bus. I apologised for what I had done this morning. Ryan said nothing, just responded with a smile. That was the most unforgettable day in my life. Our friendship was born from that Monday on.
