On the way our group stopped in Chicago for a day. We were staying in a building on the south side of the city and were warned not to go out alone.It wasn't long, though, before I felt bored and I decided to go for a short walk. I was going down a street when I saw some people making a wide circle around a man sitting on the sidewalk. His clothes were worn out and I could smell him from several feet away. I stopped in my tracks. My mind flashed back and I realized I had seen a homeless person once before: Me.It was a summer night in my 11th year when the house I grew up in caught fire in the middle of the night. I can still remember the fire destroyed everything we owned. Thankfully, our small town community showered us with love and care. They fed us, brought us clothes, and within a few days helped us to rent a temporary house. A few months later they helped us to finance a new home. I could remember the feeling of being loved even after losing so much.The homeless man sitting in front of me, however, had no one to help him. I could see the sadness and desperation in his eyes. I only had a few dollars left in my wallet, but I went to him directly, bent down and handed them to him, talking with him, touching his hands and wishing him well before I left.He isn't the first one to get my help these years. Seeing the joy on their faces, I feel more than happy. I won't  stop and say no to those who are in need. Even though what I can do is really limited, I believe that the world will change if each of us gives a little.4．What happened when the author went out for a walk?A．He got his clothes torn.                    B．He lost his wallet carelessly.C．Some strangers stopped him.                D．A man reminded him of his past.5．What does the author say about the fire?A．It hurt some people.                     B．It happened during the day.C．It made him homeless.                    D．It didn't do much damage.6．How did the author react to the homeless man?A．He turned a blind eye to him.              B．He raised money for him.C．He shared his experience with him.        D．He helped and comforted him.7．What does the author convey in the last paragraph?A．Care makes the world warmer.              B．Man's nature at birth is good.C．You will never know till you have tried.     D．Everything comes to him who waits.C[2022·济南市高三学情诊断考试]We already know that eating too much salt can lead to heart disease. But could it also affect our mind? Scientists found that a high­salt diet could cause cognitive impairments (认知损伤) in mice, and it could produce the same effect on humans. Dr Costantino Iadecola, director of the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research Institute, said they fed the mice eight to sixteen times their normal salt intake and then tested the mice. After about three months, the mice had a big change in their behaviour. Mice are very curious, and they like to look for new things. However, the tested mice lost the ability to identify a normal object. When the mice were put in their cage and asked to find a quiet spot, they did not remember where the quiet spot was. Then when the mice were building a nest, which is something the mice do daily, they were unable to do so. The research suggested humans would experience a similar response. Studies have shown Australians eat around double the recommended amount of salt each day, most of it coming from processed food. Dr Iadecola said the estimated two teaspoons of salt the average Australian eats each day could affect the brain function in the long term. However, the decline might not be as obvious as in the mice, who were given extremely high levels of salt. “But probably over years and perhaps decades—as opposed to a few months for the mice—even lower levels of salt may have a terrible effect，” Dr Iadecola said.“High levels of salt cause serious immune (免疫的) changes in the organs in and around the stomach, resulting in an almost autoimmune effect on the brain. It is part of a growing body of evidence that we really are what we eat，” Bryce Vissel, director of the Centre for Neuroscience at the University of Technology Sydney, said. “Those changes in turn cause all sorts of responses in the body, which over time certainly contribute to cognitive impairments.”8．Which can describe the tested mice?A．They remained quiet all day.B．They became smarter than ever.C．They forgot some routine things.D．They were quick at finding objects.9．What do we know about Australians?A．They ignore health advice.B．They have a higher­salt diet.C．They dislike processed food.D．They value their brain health.10．What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?A．Studies carried out by Bryce Vissel.B．Immune changes brought about by salt.C．Effects of daily diets on human behaviour.D．Links between salt intake and brain damage.11．What does the text suggest?   A．Brain health counts much.   B．The body never tells a lie.   C．A low­salt diet is to be advocated.   D．Heart disease can be prevented.D[2022·贵阳市高三适应性考试一]On January 22nd, 2021, China said it has established a  new monitoring and research center for greenhouse gases and  carbon neutrality (碳中和) in order to contribute more to fighting  climate change. The official announcement of the Monitoring and  Assessment Center for GHGs and Carbon Neutrality (温室气体及碳中和监测评估中心), located in Beijing, was made by the China Meteorological Administration. It is expected to play a  vital role in providing both technical and scientific support for researchers. The center will gather top scientists in the field both at home and abroad. Apart from providing ways to achieve carbon neutrality,  it  will  also  be  helpful  to  make  technological breakthroughs in the next three to five years. The center is tasked with creating a system to evaluate the effectiveness of the country's efforts to fight climate change. The recruitment (招募) of staff members is expected to be finished in the next two months. A scientific steering committee will also be started in April to guide the center's operation. China is determined to make its carbon dioxide emissions (排放) peak (达到峰值) before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. One of the lessons from the COVID­19 pandemic is that humankind must pursue a green development path and green lifestyle.  China will lower its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by more than 65 percent from the 2005 level and increase its share of non­fossil fuels in primary energy consumption to around 25 percent.  By 2030, China will also increase its forest stock by 6 billion cubic meters from the 2005 level, and bring its total installed capacity (装机容量) of wind and solar power to over 1.2 billion kilowatts.  The establishment of the center proves China's determination to pursue a green development road. It's a concrete action that China has taken to fight the climate challenge. Carbon neutrality, or a net­zero carbon footprint, means reaching a balance between carbon emissions and removing pollutants through carbon sinks and other offsets (补偿).  China has sped up research and development of equipment to monitor greenhouse gases and carbon neutrality and achieved encouraging results. However, there is still a long way to go to reach the top world standard.12．Why did China start the Center?A．To produce more greenhouse gases.B．To gather more scientists worldwide.C．To contribute more to fighting climate change.D．To introduce top scientists in carbon neutrality.13．When will the recruitment of the staff probably finish?A．In January.             B．In March.C．In April.                D．In May.14．How soon will China achieve carbon neutrality according to the passage?A．In about 9 years.   B．In about 16 years.C．In about 38 years.  D．In about 65 years.15．What does this passage mainly talk about?A．China's new contribution to climate battle.B．China's carbon dioxide emissions peaking.C．The Center's recruiting new members.D．Installed capacity of wind and solar power.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。[2022·南昌市一模]How to Start a Habit of Making Art Making art can reduce stress and anxiety and improve your mood.
