When she was just 9 years old, Hilde Lysiak became famous across the United States for reporting on difficult news stories. Now Hilde has written a book telling her own story and sharing some of the challenges she faced.
Hilde’s father was a reporter for New York Daily News. When she was young, he often took her to work with him, and she developed a strong interest in news stories and reporting. When she was 8, Hilde started her own newspaper called Orange Street News (OSN) and she did the writing, her sister took pictures, and her father helped her organize and print the newspaper.
Following the rules taught by her father, she researched and reported stories of her town in the newspaper. In 2016, OSN suddenly became famous when a murder happened in town, and 9-year-old Hilde was the first person to report it.
However, some people criticized her parents for allowing her to report on something as unpleasant as a murder. Others criticized Hilde for “pretending to be a reporter”. Hilde was upset by the complaints, so she responded with a YouTube video. She said, “I want to be taken seriously. I’m sure other kids do, too.”
In 2019, she made the news again when a law enforcement (执行) officer threatened to arrest her for filming him. Hilde knew her rights as a reporter were protected under the Constitution. Later, the town apologized to Hilde for the officer’s actions. Hilde’s activities as a reporter have made her famous and she has earned several awards.
In April, the book Hilde on the Record came out, in which Hilde tells her own story, both the good parts and the sad parts. She talks honestly about the challenges she’s faced and some of those challenges came from other people, but the others came from herself, struggling to figure out who she was as she grew older.
4. What made Hilde’s newspaper famous overnight?
A. Reporting some news on New York Daily News.
B. Being the first to cover a murder case in town.
C. Refusing to accept criticism from different people.
D. Reporting stories about herself as a young reporter.
5. Which of the following best describes Hilde according to the passage?
A. Patient. B. Humorous. C. Common. D. Brave.
6. What does Hilde’s book Hilde on the Record mainly focus on?
A. Personal growth. B. Inner honesty.
C. Career success. D. Other people’s challenges.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?

细节理解题。根据第三段“In 2016, OSN suddenly became famous when a murder happened in town, and 9-year-old Hilde was the first person to report it.( 2016年,OSN突然出名,因为镇上发生了一起谋杀案,9岁的希尔德是第一个报道谋杀案的人)”可知,使得希尔德一夜成名的原因是她是镇上第一个报道谋杀案的人,故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In 2016, OSN suddenly became famous when a murder happened in town, and 9-year-old Hilde was the first person to report it.( 2016年,OSN突然出名,因为镇上发生了一起谋杀案,9岁的希尔德是第一个报道谋杀案的人)”可知,希尔德第一个到现场报道谋杀案,可推理出希尔德是一个很勇敢的人,故选D项。

Now, a study proves that gardens are more than just a pretty place. The study, by researchers at Illinois State University, demonstrates that such constructed gardens can have a measurable and positive impact on water quality.
Floating gardens are essentially platforms built and wrapped in coconut husks (椰子壳), and filled in with native plantings. As plants grow, they extend their roots into the water. On the North Branch of the Chicago River, non-profit Urban Rivers and its partners are developing a mile-long floating eco-park called the Wild Mile. The re-development of this former industrial canal is Urban Rivers’ important project. As part of the park, floating gardens, attached to shore, are being fixed.
The primary aim of the floating gardens is beautification. But the Illinois State team, from the University’s Department of Geology, Geography, and the Environment, saw an ideal setup for a controlled experiment. “We joined it because it’s the perfect opportunity to see if there’s an influence on water quality,” explains lead author Abigail Heath.
The study is novel: previous studies have explored floating gardens’ influence on water quality over time, primarily in wastewater treatment ponds, but not over space, in moving water. The project also matches well with Urban Rivers’ broader goals. “The city is interested in bettering water quality,” says Phil Nicodemus, Urban Rivers’ Director of Research. “Happily, Illinois State took part in it later.”
Could this small human-made park improve water quality? An average of data collected over the course of the study shows middle but definitive improvement. For example, nitrogen (氮) dropped from 4.69 milligrams per liter in surface water to 4.43 milligrams per liter, a drop of about 1 percent.
“Despite how small this garden was, there was measurable improvement in water quality from upstream to downstream,” notes Heath. She and her colleagues see this as a model for how large floating gardens should be to help improve water in similar settings. “Even this tiny garden makes a difference,” she says.
8. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?
A. The floating gardens are environmentally friendly.
B. The floating gardens are fixed everywhere in the eco-park.
C. The floating gardens can help fix the former parks.
D. The Urban Rivers were once industrial canals.
9. What is the main reason to build the floating gardens?
A. To reduce waste water. B. To attract more visitors to the park.
C. To make the surroundings brilliant. D. To help researchers do the experiment.
10. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A. The floating garden. B. The project.
C. The treatment of ponds. D. The quality of water.
11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Floating Gardens: More than Pretty
B. The Best Way to Better Water Quality
C. A Practical Method of Improving Parks
D. Floating Gardens Beautify the City
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究指出,美国伊利诺伊州的漂浮花园不但起到了美观的作用,而且能够有效改善水质。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Floating gardens are essentially platforms built and wrapped in coconut husks (椰子壳), and filled in with native plantings. As plants grow, they extend their roots into the water. On the North Branch of the Chicago River, non-profit Urban Rivers and its partners are developing a mile-long floating eco-park called the Wild Mile.(漂浮花园本质上是用椰子壳包裹起来的平台,里面种满了本地植物。当植物生长时,它们的根会伸入水中。在芝加哥河的北支流,非营利组织“城市河流”及其合作伙伴正在开发一个长达一英里的漂浮生态公园,名为“野生一英里”。)”可知,漂浮花园的用材是椰子壳,其功能是作为生态公园。由此推知,漂浮花园是环保的。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The primary aim of the floating gardens is beautification.(漂浮花园的主要目的是美化。)”可知,建造漂浮花园的主要目的是让周边环境更加美观。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The project also matches well with Urban Rivers’ broader goals. “The city is interested in bettering water quality,” says Phil Nicodemus, Urban Rivers’ Director of Research. “Happily, Illinois State took part in it later.”(该项目也与“城市河流”更大的目标相匹配。“城市河流”研究主任Phil Nicodemus说:“这座城市对改善水质很感兴趣,令人高兴的是,伊利诺伊州立大学后来也加入了。”)”可知,Phil Nicodemus很高兴伊利诺伊州立大学参与了这个项目,it指代的是上文中提到的The project。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了一项研究指出,美国伊利诺伊州的漂浮花园不但起到了美观的作用,而且能够有效改善水质。因此,A项“漂浮花园:不止于美丽”可概括文章大意,适合作为文章标题。故选A。
D
Stressed at work and feeling your blood pressure rise? People all over the world are told by their doctors to try for a low-sodium (钠) diet to treat high blood pressure or other diseases, but there’s no denying that salt makes food taste good. Fortunately, Japanese researchers at Tokyo’s Meiji University and the manufacturer Kirin have developed high-tech chopsticks that enhance salty tastes, potentially helping those who need to reduce sodium in their diets.
These wired-up chopsticks are actually part of a device that the researchers say can enhance the salty flavor of low-sodium foods. And when they were tested on participants for the first time, results showed that the high-tech chopsticks increase perceived (察觉到) saltiness in foods by about 1.5 times.
According to the research team, the basic principle is that the extra salty flavor is perceived due to extremely weak electric currents conveyed directly into the mouth through the tip of one of the chopsticks. Scientists have apparently been using this kind of weak electricity to play with flavors in the lab for years, but these chopsticks in particular are set to adjust the activity of ions (离子) in sodium chloride (table salt), which enhances salty flavor.
And do these chopsticks work as expected? To verify the effect of the new chopsticks, the researchers conducted an experiment on a total of 36 participants aged 40 to 65, all of whom were eating a low-sodium diet. If nothing else, one thing was clear: participants using the chopsticks tasted more salt than they did without. Results show that they even thought that low-sodium food eaten with the high-tech chopsticks tasted saltier than regular food made with an average amount of sodium, and eaten with normal chopsticks.
The chopsticks aren’t on store shelves quite yet, but with promising results, people around the world who are unhappily devoted to a low-sodium diet might just be excited for any updates to come!
12. What is the main function of the future high-tech chopsticks?
A. To treat blood pressure. B. To test how salty a dish is.
C. To increase the saltiness of food. D. To help reduce salt intake.
13. How do the high-tech chopsticks work?
A. By sending warning information to the brain.
B. By changing the saltiness of food with electric shocks.
C. By using electricity to transport ions between chopsticks.
D. By tricking our brains into tasting extra salt.
14. What does the underlined word “verify” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Confirm. B. Improve.
C. Change. D. Strengthen.
15 What is the writer’s attitude toward the future of the chopsticks?
A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Pessimistic.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。日本研究人员开发出一种可以让人感觉咸味增强的筷子,从而帮助人们减少食盐的摄入量。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句“Fortunately, Japanese researchers at Tokyo’s Meiji University and the manufacturer Kirin have developed high-tech chopsticks that enhance salty tastes, potentially helping those who need to reduce sodium in their diets. (幸运的是,日本东京明治大学的研究人员和制造商麒麟开发出了一种高科技筷子,可以增强咸味,可能会帮助那些需要减少饮食中钠含量的人。)”可知,这种高科技筷子的功能是帮助减少食盐摄入量。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“According to the research team, the basic principle is that the extra salty flavor is perceived due to extremely weak electric currents conveyed directly into the mouth through the tip of one of the chopsticks. (据研究小组介绍,其基本原理是,通过其中一根筷子的尖端直接进入口腔的极弱电流会让人感受到额外的咸味。)”可知,这种高科技筷子是通过让大脑感受额外的咸味来发挥其功能的。故选D。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段前两句“And do these chopsticks work as expected? To verify the effect of the new chopsticks, the researchers conducted an experiment on a total of 36 participants aged 40 to 65, all of whom were eating a low-sodium diet. (这些筷子像预期的那样好用吗?为了 新筷子的效果,研究人员对36名年龄在40到65岁之间的参与者进行了一项实验,他们都在吃低钠饮食。)”可知,画线词所在句前一句是对筷子的效果提出疑问,而后面是对实验结果的描述,故可推知,划线词是“证明,证实”的意思。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段“The chopsticks aren’t on store shelves quite yet, but with promising results, people around the world who are unhappily devoted to a low-sodium diet might just be excited for any updates to come! (这种筷子还没有在商店货架上销售,但由于效果很好,世界各地那些不快乐地致力于低钠饮食人可能会对即将到来的任何更新感到兴奋!)”可知,作者对这种高科技筷子的未来持乐观态度。故选B。

47. 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。
It was the Easter holidays, and school was closed for two weeks. For me, the Easter holidays were so boring that it was impossible to find something fun to do. My mom had suggested that I do some studies since the promotion test was coming up. However, I didn’t follow my mother’s suggestion. Instead, I went outside to seek out my friends to play with. When I had successfully contacted some of my friends, none of them seemed to be much in a playful mood, but one friend Jimmy agreed to play with me. He suggested we go down to the river and just relax there. The river was not far from my home, and we arrived there quickly.
Just relaxing on the river bank with nothing but some waste logs, it wasn’t fun for us at first. Clearly what was on our minds was to jump into the river and just take a swim in the clear cool water. So we took off our clothes down to our underwear and walked into the shallow part of the water. The water was truly cool and refreshing and we were starting to have fun then, playing and laughing, as we splashed the cool water onto each other’s faces.
Then we started to chase each other around on the river bank and then we ran straight into the river. We were having so much fun that we didn’t notice danger was around the corner. Before Jimmy could know it, and before he could do anything to keep his balance, he lost his footing on a tree branch, which was in the shallow part of the water, and slipped, bringing his whole entire body into the deep water. He tried to resurface from the water but found it extremely hard to keep his head above the water.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

I was scared to see him struggling in the water but I knew I must rescue him.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was scared to see him struggling in the water but I knew I must rescue him. I took a deep breath to keep calm. Looking around, I found a waste log, I threw it to him immediately and asked him to hold it and not to give up. At the same time I yelled for help, hoping someone could come to our rescue. Luckily, my mom heard my cries, rushed out of the house and raced towards us. She jumped into the water and reached out her hands to pull him. Several neighbors also quickly joined the rescue. They managed to get Jimmy out of the water. Finally, Jimmy was saved, pale and shivering.
After a while, Jimmy recovered from panic and thanked my mom and the neighbors. We hugged each other in tears. I thought my mom would scold me. But she just held us in her arms tightly. She warned us it was dangerous to swim in the river. Both of us felt ashamed and promised never to do that again. This was really a special Easter, one I would never forget. For Jimmy, he had a narrow escape from drowning. For me, I felt the kindness of my neighbors.
