During the 2020-2021 schl year, due t a special event, I was ne f tw fully remte furth-grade teachers in my schl. We each taught the required disciplines: English language arts, math, scial studies, and science. Given the reduced distributin time n camera with students, the flexibility f fcusing n additinal tpics was almst impssible. Yet, while I was virtually teaching a life sciences unit, a “teachable mment” n news literacy came up.
The skill being taught was suppsed t be t cmpare and cntrast, a requirement in fictin and nnfictin texts — a lessn that all literacy educatrs are familiar with and have tls in their tlbxes t address. My students were intrigued by a sidebar (侧边栏) that said the crabs have a plant-based diet, eating such items as leaves, fruits, and flwers. One f the kids — an experienced scial media user — then said smething wild: crabs eat their babies.
They all perked up (活跃起来). Suddenly it seemed everyne was interested in the lessn. I hadn’t planned n teaching news literacy skills, but it became clear that we needed t take that detur (绕道而行). It was almst time fr a break, s I asked my students t see if they culd figure ut what red crabs eat.
When we returned, we started a list f what we’d fund. The first few students said it was true: red crabs d eat their babies. One especially thughtful student fund a vide with ver 600,000 views that seemed t crrbrate the ntin that crabs eat their babies. During the break, hwever, I fund a website disagreeing with the exact vide my student had shared. Like s much misinfrmatin, there was sme truth t the vide, but it was highly misleading.
Rather than teach anther lessn n cmparing and cntrasting, I engaged my students in a discussin abut surcing and hw t knw what t trust. We fcused n famus news rganizatins and hw t spt signs f bias. We engaged in “lateral reading”: a methd f ging t ther sites t learn abut thse surces that we weren’t sure abut.
8. Hw did the special event have an effect n the authr’s teaching?
A. He was the nly ne t teach disciplines nline in the schl.
B. The length f an nline curse was reduced.
C. He was nt allwed t talk abut additinal tpics.
D. The disciplines he taught became fewer.
9. Which wrds can be used t describe the atmsphere f the lessn?
A. Interesting and pen.B. Relaxing and nisy.
C. Serius and quiet.D. Lively and cmpetitive.
10. What des the underlined wrd in the furth paragraph prbably mean?
A. Oppse.B. Dubt.C. Ignre.D. Prve.
11. What des the passage want t teach us?
A. The ability t cmpare and cntrast is valuable.
B. A teacher shuld be knwledgeable enugh t answer questins frm students.
C. Gather mre infrmatin when we have n idea f what t trust.
D. Critical thinking and the curage t questin are key t finding the truth.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位四年级教师在线授课时引导学生进行信息辨别和批判性思维训练。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Given the reduced distributin time n camera with students, the flexibility f fcusing n additinal tpics was almst impssible. (考虑到与学生在镜头前的分配时间减少，专注于其他主题的灵活性几乎是不可能的)”可知，这个特殊事件对作者的教学带来的影响是在线课程的时长被缩短了。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“They all perked up. Suddenly it seemed everyne was interested in the lessn.(他们都活跃起来。突然间，似乎每个人都对这堂课感兴趣了)”和最后一段的“I engaged my students in a discussin abut surcing and hw t knw what t trust. (我让他们参与了一场关于资源来源以及如何知道什么是值得信任的讨论)”可推知，课堂气氛有趣又开放。故选A。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段的“One especially thughtful student fund a vide with ver 600,000 views that seemed t crrbrate the ntin that crabs eat their babies.”可知，一位特别有思想的学生发现了一段观看次数超过60万的视频，该视频似乎crrbrate了螃蟹吃蟹宝宝的说法。结合前文的“When we returned, we started a list f what we’d fund. The first few students said it was true: red crabs d eat their babies.(当我们回来的时候，我们开始列出我们发现的东西。前几个学生说这是真的：红蟹确实会吃它们的宝宝)”可知，那名学生寻找视频就是为了证实他们的发现。由此可知，划线词与prve“证明”意思一致。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Rather than teach anther lessn n cmparing and cntrasting, I engaged my students in a discussin abut surcing and hw t knw what t trust. We fcused n famus news rganizatins and hw t spt signs f bias. We engaged in “lateral reading”: a methd f ging t ther sites t learn abut thse surces that we weren’t sure abut.(我没有再给学生上一节关于比较和对比的课，而是让他们参与了一场关于资源来源以及如何知道什么是值得信任的讨论。我们专注于著名的新闻机构，以及如何发现偏见的迹象。我们进行了“横向阅读”：一种去其他网站了解那些我们不确定的资源的方法)”可推知，这篇文章想要告诉我们批判性思维和质疑的勇气是找到真相的关键。故选D。

【16题详解】

One individual, discvered in 2012, is estimated t be mre than 5,060 years ld, making it the ldest knwn nn-clnal tree in the wrld! (在我们这个非凡的星球上，一些最古老的生物是树木。纪录保持者是美国西部的狐尾松，其中相当一部分的树龄已经超过3000年。2012年发现的一棵树估计有5060多岁，是世界上已知最古老的非克隆树！)”和后文“but als abut being a gd listener (许多其他树种的个体也已经存在了数千年)”可知，本句要表不是只有狐尾松古老，故C选项“Hwever, bristlecnes are certainly nt alne in terms f the ldest creatures (然而，就最古老的生物而言，狐尾松肯定不是唯一的)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选C。
【17题详解】
由下文“Undubtedly, part f the answer lies in luck. Ancient trees have bviusly nt submitted t deadly diseases, pests, fires, drughts, windstrms, landslides, r the human axe in the centuries and centuries that they have quietly endured. (毫无疑问，部分原因在于运气。古树显然没有屈服于致命的疾病，害虫，火灾，干旱，风暴，山体滑坡，或人类的斧头在他们默默地忍受了一个又一个世纪。)”可知，本空要说跟“运气”有关的话题，故B选项“This is a questin that has smething t d with the gd luck f trees (这个问题与树木的好运有关)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选B。
【18题详解】
由上文“The ther part f the answer has t d with hw trees age. (答案的另一部分与树木如何老化有关。)”可知，本空要说跟“如何老化”有关的话题，和上文“We may never knw the answer t that, but, at the very least(我们可能永远不会知道答案，但至少)”可知，前文说不知道的事情，本空说至少知道的一件事，且与“如何老化”有关，故G选项“we knw that ancient trees age in ways that are dramatically different frm the ways that mst animals and even ther plants age (我们知道，古树的衰老方式与大多数动物甚至其他植物的衰老方式截然不同)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选G。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，主要介绍了近年来在上海市郊区出现的共享菜园现象，城市居民在城市郊区租用共享菜园进行种植活动，以缓解城市生活的压力。
【36题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：近年来，随着越来越多的白领转向务农以逃避城市生活的压力，上海郊区出现了共享菜地。根据“In recent years”，谓语动词使用现在完成时。主语shared vegetable plts为复数意义，并且承受find的动作，因此find应该变为现在完成时的被动语态，故填have been fund。
【37题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：近年来，随着越来越多的白领转向务农以逃避城市生活的压力，上海郊区出现了共享菜地。空格处及之后表示“目的”，因此使用动词不定式作目的状语，故填t escape。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：当他们不在身边的时候，专业人士会接手工作。prfessinal为可数名词，应该使用复数形式，故填prfessinals。
【39题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：该共享农场由陈友贵于2022年10月创立，占地约13.33公顷，包括共享菜地、烧烤场和休闲区。分析句子结构可知，fund在句子中不作为谓语动词使用，句子主语the shared farm承受fund的动作，因此使用过去分词作状语，空格位于句首，故填Funded。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：该共享农场由陈友贵于2022年10月创立，占地约13.33公顷，包括共享菜地、烧烤场和休闲区。在某个月份使用介词in，故填in。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：据陈说，监控系统覆盖了整个农田，允许会员通过手机远程查看他们的蔬菜和田地。前文提到了“the shared farm”，因此此处为特指意义，应该使用定冠词，故填the。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这个农场有大约200名成员，其中一些人甚至在田地里饲养鸡和鸭。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导非限制性定语从句，200 members是先行词，它在从句中作f的宾语，指人，因此使用whm引导定语从句，故填whm。
【43题详解】
考查连词。句意：农场还使用技术来确保鸡鸭不会失踪或跑到别人的农场。此处应该填入连词，需要的词义为“或”，故填r。
【44题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：那些希望积极参与作物种植的人，主要来自老一辈，可以自己选择种植的包装。使用副词作状语修饰动词participate，需要的词义为“积极地”，故填actively。
【45题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：那些希望积极参与作物种植的人，主要来自老一辈，可以自己选择种植的包装。固定搭配by neself意为“靠某人自己”，故填themselves。

The extent f my swimming career was purely recreatinal, while the cmpetitive swimmers nearby thught nthing f the seemingly simple task f a 500-meter swim test. Pushing myself t finish what I had started, I culd nly think: why nt take the easy way ut?

“Well, lifeguarding demands mre respnsibility, strength and respect. Thus the psitin pays $2 mre per hur. Yur swimming skills are strng enugh. All yu need t d is cmplete a certificatin class.”
Inside I was unsure f myself, but his wrds inspired me-Yu never knw what yu are capable f until yu frce yurself t d it.
Sn I passed the swim test. All left was t practice and learn first aid, CPR(心肺复苏), and prcedures fr different land and water-based emergencies.
Wrk started sn. A well- intentined yet anxius feeling in me sn passed. Days, weeks, and mnths went by withut incident; emergencies were rare. The skills and training I had s carefully studied and acquired seemed unnecessary.
Tday appeared t be anther uneventful day. Hwever, shrtly after the ther guards signaled t the children t exit the pl, I nticed ne by was still in the middle while the thers had climbed up.
