Try Making Them into Treats
It’s fine to shop at farmers’ markets and grocery stores for recipe ingredients(原料). But what if you could gather some of them by yourselves, and at the same time, help rid your region of non-native plant species that are harming the ecosystems
According to the National Wildlife Federation, about 42 percent of today’s threatened or endangered species are at risk because of invasive(有侵略性的)species. Here are four invasive plants and ideas for serving them up.
KUDZU
Brought to the US from Japan, the kudau vine can grow a foot a day, robbing other plants of sunlight. Its beautiful flowers bloom from July to September, but its leaves, roots, and vine tips are more readily available. Pick flowers to use in making drinks.
HIMALAYAN BLACKBERRY
Native to Armenia, the plant has threatened other species. It blocks access through woods and affects livestock. Its fruit starts to ripen in midsummer and the berries can be added to hake goods such as muffins.
SOW THISTLE
Its roots crowd out useful crops and suck water and nitrogen from the soil. Native to Europe and western Asia, it grows all over North America in spring and summer. Try coking the leaves in olive oil and adding them to a cake.
WATERCRESS
European settlers brought this leafy green to the Colonies. It spreads along waterways, crowding out native plants.
Harvest it from the edge of a running stream in spring and fall to make sandwiches.
Which species will you choose if you want to make drinks
KUDZU. B. SOW THISTLE.
C. WATERCRESS. D. HIMALAYAN BLACKBERRY.
What do the listed species have in common
They are harvested in autumn. B. They are all invasive species.
C. They can grow a foot per day. D. They are picked to make sandwiches.
What is the purpose of the text
To introduce the harms of the four species.
To advertise some recipe ingredients for readers.
To prove the findings of National Wildlife Federation.
To provide ideas to make the invasive species into treats.

The Mogao Grottoes were a center of Buddhist life and some of the world’s great cultures for hundreds of years. However, by the late Qing Dynasty they had been abandoned and nearly forgotten and many of the caves had become damaged by the elements. Around 1900, with the discovery of a library of thousands of ancient documents, the caves received new interest from Chinese and foreign researchers. Unfortunately, this resulted in tens of thousands of items from the caves being taken to foreign museums
In the 1940s, many researchers and artists visited the area to study traditional Chinese art. Copies of some of the artwork painted by respected artists such as Zhang Daqian and GuanShanyue helped people all over the country learn about Dunhuang. These artists were also inspired by the artwork they saw in the caves and it began to influence their painting styles. Others stayed in the desert for much longer, Chang Shuhong stayed for the rest of his life — struggling to record the cultural treasures and protect them from the weather. As a result of their efforts the Dunhuang Academy was formed to protect and study the Mogao Grottoes.
In 1987, the Mogao Grottoes were named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. While the caves are open to the public, access is now limited in order to protect the artwork. However, the caves can be seen online in digital form so that people around the world can study and enjoy them.
Despite its remoteness, the Mogao Grottoes continue to draw visitors. And just as the sand and desert have survived largely unchanged through the centuries, this small art gallery in the desert has also survived largely unchanged providing an amazing look at a world long ago past.
When did the Mogao Grottoes regain the world’s attention
Hundreds of years ago. B. In the late Qing Dynasty.
C. In the late eighties of the 20th century. D. Around the beginning of the 20th century.
What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the artists in the 1940s
To learn about their works. B. To show how hard they worked.
C. To compare their different styles. D. To appreciate their contributions.
When people have no access to visiting the caves, .
they can do researches online B. they can enjoy the digital versions

Respected artists — Protectors of the Mogao Grottoes
An Amazing Tourist Attraction — The Mogao Grottoes
C
Scientists have uncovered a series of 3,000-year-old items at Sanxingdui in China’s Sichuan province since 2019 and identified that the creators belonged to the Shu state, a highly developed civilization united by the neighboring state of Qin in 316 BC.
One of the major finds is a 0. 6-pound gold mask that may have been worn by a churchman during religious ceremonies. About 84% pure gold, the whole piece likely weighed close to one pound in its entirety, making it one of the heaviest gold masks from that time period discovered in China to date.
Other discoveries made at the site included two kinds of silk. Silk has played an important role in China’s history. As the researchers point out, the ancient people of Sanxingdui probably wore silk clothes during religious ceremonies. The silk was thought to serve as a means of communication between heaven, earth, man and god. Besides these religious ceremonies, silk was also used to make fine clothing, fans and wall hangings. Civilizations across the ancient world, from Rome, Persia, Egypt to Greece, similarly treasured Chinese silk. Traders were sent along the Silk Road to China to obtain the highly sought-after material. The presence of silk at Sanxingdui indicates that the ancient Shu state was one of the important origins of silk in ancient China.
Other important discoveries included bronze animals and carvings that bear distinct similarities to objects found along the Yangtze River and in Southeast Asia, suggesting that the Shu civilization engaged in broad exchanges with many areas.
Since 1929 when a local farmer accidentally found Sanxingdui, researchers have uncovered more than 50,000 ancient items at the site. For example, more than 1,000 items, including well-kept bronze masks, were unearthed in 1986 alone.
What can we say about the gold mask found at Sanxingdui
It is not made of pure gold. B. It is the heaviest ever uncovered.
C. It weighs close to one pound. D. It might be used during festivals.
What can the presence of silk at Sanxingdui probably tell us
The Shu people used silk just for decoration.
The Shu people brought silk to the other countries.
The Shu state was far more developed than Europe.
The Shu state might be one of the earliest silk producers.
What is the last paragraph mainly about
The discoverer of Sanxingdui. B. The timeline of the discoveries at Sanxingdui.
C. The long history of Sanxingdui. D. The achievements of Sanxingdui unearthing.
What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
To promote an attraction in Sichuan province.
To report the important discoveries at Sanxingdui.
To explore the relationship between Shu and Qin.
To evaluate the ancient civilizations in the world.
D
Earth’s oceans are changing color and climate breakdown is probably to blame, according to a research. The deep blue sea is actually becoming steadily greener over time, according to the study, with areas in the low latitudes(纬度)near the equator especially affected.
“The reason why we care about this is not that we care about the color, but that the color is a reflection of the changes in the state of the ecosystem,” said BB Cael, a scientist and author of the study published in Nature.
The previous research focused on changes in the greenness of the ocean to learn about trends in the changing climate. But Cael’s team pored over 20 years of observations by NASA’s Modis-Aqua satellite, a comprehensive database, and looked for patterns of change in the ocean’s color through a
fuller color spectrum(色谱)including red and blue.
The changes have been detected in over 56% of the world’s oceans. In most areas there’s a clear “greening effect”, Cael said, but he added that there are also places where red or blue colorings are rising or falling. “These are not massive ecosystem-destroying changes. They may be mild,” said Cael. “But this gives us an additional piece of evidence that human activity is likely affecting large parts of the global biosphere(生物圈)in a way that we haven’t been able to understand. ”
Although this discovery firmly documents another consequence of a changing climate, what is not yet clear is how strong these changes are and what is happening inside the ocean to cause them, according to Michael J Behrenfeld, a researcher of ocean productivity, who was not involved in the research.
NASA will be launching an advanced satellite mission in January 2024 called Pace which will also measure hundreds of colors in the ocean instead of a handful, progressing studies like these further. “Making more meaningful inferences about what the changes actually are is definitely a big next step,” said Cael.
Why should attention be drawn to the changing color of oceans
It reflects ecosystem changes. B. It causes climate breakdown.
C. Human activities are affected. D. Low latitude areas are influenced.
What does the underlined phrase “pored over” in paragraph 3 probably mean
Copied. B. Covered. C. Studied. D. Borrowed.
What is Michael’s attitude towards the discovery
Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Objective. D. Indifferent.
What is the last paragraph mainly about
Pace’s function. B. Cael’s suggestions.
Meaningful inferences. D. NASA’s further research plans.

Here are some tips for you to stay healthy within your budget.
Don’t sleep on a full stomach
36 . Well, give enough time to your body to clean, process, and restore tissue for another day of work. If you sleep on an empty stomach, you will make the best of this rest. Therefore, eat your last meal at least 3 hours before you go to bed.
Eat green and nutty
When measured on a cost per serving, per weight, or per nutrition basis, fruits and vegetables beat out meat and junk food. 37 , as they will be the most appropriate for the climate, richer in nutrients, and at the best price. In addition, replace vegetable oils with nut oils for cooking. Research shows that 2 tablespoons of oil made from nuts per day can reduce the risk of heart disease.
Exercise throughout the week
Exercise is one of the healthiest investments of your time and should happen at least 3~5 times a week, spaced out no more than two days apart. 38 .
Create your support network
Humans are not like trees and can grow all by ourselves. 39 . Make an effort to meet and talk to people that are sincere and trying to be better every day, those that inspire you and make you want to be a better human being.
40
Make time for what you like to do. As your body relaxes and is happy, all the organs and systems work at their best.
Try to buy in season
Do what you enjoy doing
Do meaningful things with friends
As an old saying goes, “Time is health”
Add nuts to your diet at least twice a week
Even if you are very busy, make sure you exercise throughout the week
We are social beings and need the interaction that the community provides

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
In a letter to his daughter, Franklin questioned the choice of the eagle as the symbol of the US. He said that the selected design looked more like a(n) 41 . He then explained the respectability and morality of each animal.
For my own part, I wish the eagle has not been chosen as the 42 of our country. He
is a bird of 43 moral character. He is too 44 and does not get his living honestly. You may have seen him waiting on some dead tree near the river and watching the other fishing birds work. When they have caught a fish 45 , the eagle 46 them and takes the fish to his mate and babies. With all this injustice, he is never a good example but like those men who live by 47 the poor. Besides, he is a coward(懦夫). The little King Bird, which is not 48 than a sparrow(麻雀), attacks him bravely and drives him out of its area. 49 , he is by no means a(n) 50 symbol for the brave and honest Americans who have 51 all the British from our country.

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。
Molly and her husband Rex ran a used bookstore in a small town. People, mostly kids, came here to read books, sell books and buy books. The morning had been full of rain, and passers-by were walking with narrow eyes under umbrellas. Molly rested both her hands on the counter and leaned(倾
斜 ) forward to watch the world outside in the rain while Rex was busy sorting out books on the bookshelves. Rick, who sat on the floor burying himself in reading a hardback illustrated book, was the only customer in such a rainy day. Rick was a regular customer to the bookstore and he never sold a book or bought a book. He just read books.
“Can you keep this book for me ” Molly heard a shy voice and looked down to find it was little Rick that stood before the counter, holding the illustrated book and asked.
“Sure!” Molly nodded encouragingly. But the uncertainty remained on Rick’s face. “I’ll be back really soon. Promise. Tomorrow if I can.” Molly nodded to him as seriously as she was treating an adult. Molly wanted to ask him if there was anything difficult, but she kept silent. Anyway, she put the illustrated book in a drawer in case anyone else would take it. Most of the secondhand books in her store were unique. If it was sold, she would fail to keep her promise.
Rick didn’t return the following day, or the day after that. Molly was somehow disappointed. Rex suggested placing the illustrated book on the bookshelf so that others could read it or take it. In Rex’s opinion, children made promises all the time and they promised all kinds of things. When they came to a store and was attracted by something, they promised to come back and they asked the shopkeeper not to let anyone else take the things they wanted away. It happened all the time.
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。
But Molly insisted that they should wait and keep the book.
Rick pushed the door open and rushed to the counter holding his money box.

【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“Although this discovery firmly documents another consequence of a changing climate, what is not yet clear is how strong these changes are and what is happening inside the ocean to cause them,according to Michael J Behrenfeld, a researcher of ocean productivity, who was not involved in the research.”(尽管这一发现有力地证明了气候变化的另一个后果,但尚不清楚这些变化有多强烈,以及海洋内部发生了什么导致了这些变化,没有参与这项研究的海洋生产力研究员迈克尔·J·贝伦菲尔德说)可推知,Michael同时提出了这一发现的影响和不足,对此发现持客观态度。故选C。
【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“NASA will be launching an advanced satellite mission in January 2024 called Pace which will also measure hundreds of colors in the ocean instead of a handful, progressing studies like these further. “Making more meaningful inferences about what the changes actually are is definitely a big next step,” said Cael.”(美国宇航局将于2024年1月发射一颗名为“佩斯”的先进卫星,该卫星还将测量海洋中的数百种颜色,而不是少数几种颜色,从而进一步推进这类研究。Cael说:“对这些变化做出更有意义的推断绝对是下一步的重要工作。”)可知,最后一段主要介绍了NASA的进一步的研究计划。故选D。

Dear Glen,
I am Li Hua, monitor of Class 1, Senior 3. I am writing to invite you to join us to climb mountain next Monday, which is the Double Ninth Festival. Mountain climbing serves as a traditional activity on that day. Standing on the top of the mountain, we can enjoy a broader horizon.
We will gather at the school gate at 4:00 p.m. on that day. The school bus will take us to the Qingyun Mountain. Bottled water and snacks will be offered. And there are stone steps up to the mountain top, so it won’t be so challenging and tiring.
We’ll really appreciate it if you join us.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
One possible answer
But Molly insisted that they should wait and keep the book. She didn’t place the illustrated book on the bookshelf, hoping Rick would show up soon. A kid might make all kinds of promises and fail to keep them. But Rick was so sincere and eager that Molly believed he wouldn’t break his promise. A kid’s promise is more valuable than the cost of the book. The book would rest in the drawer still until Rick showed up. Then on one sunny morning, Molly found a little boy running all the way towards her bookstore holding something. The little boy was exactly Rick.
Rick pushed the door open and rushed to the counter holding his money box. Molly excitedly pulled the drawer open, took out the illustrated book and walked out from the counter immediately. She knelt with one leg and smiled at Rick, handing the book to Rick. Rick’s eyes were shining looking at the book, and he put the box on the floor and held the book,“I think you guys’d better make your deal here at the coffee table,” said Rex. Molly winked at him delightedly. The sunlight came through the glass window and cast on the little customer and the nice lady.
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开。Molly和她的丈夫Rex经营一家二手书店。在这个书店里,来的顾客多数是小孩。他们来这里读书,卖书,买书。这天上午一直下雨,街上的路人打着伞,慵懒的走着。Molly双手放在柜台上,身体前倾,看着外面雨中的世界;丈夫Rex则忙着整理书架上的书。店里的一位常客,也是今天唯一的顾客Rick正在看着书。突然,Rick带着一本图画书走到Molly跟前,告诉她让她给他保管好,承诺他明天回来还会看。Molly答应了他,但时间过去了,Rick并没有如约出现。
【详解】1. 段落续写
①根据第一段首句“但是Molly坚持要他们等一等,把书留下。”可知,第一段接下来的内容可以描述Molly猜想这个男孩不会违背自己的诺言,他会回到书店,而自己则会一直把这本书给他保留Rick的出现。最终男孩出现在她的视野里。
②根据第二段首句“Rick推开门,拿着他的钱箱冲向柜台。”可知,接下来的内容可以描述Molly把书递给男孩,男孩高兴地接过书。外面的阳光透过玻璃,照在小顾客和体贴的女店主的身上。
2. 续写线索
等待——希望——男孩出现——兴奋——递还男孩书本——男孩接书——和谐画面出现——阳光出现在两人身上
