More than one billion pounds of pumpkins are grown in the U.S. every year, and after they’ve been used for Halloween decorations, millions of them—large, mini, orange, white—will end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场).
“Driving around after Halloween, you see people with pumpkins on top of their garbage bins. All of that will go to a landfill and become methane gas which warms the atmosphere in a shorter amount of time than carbon dioxide,” says Kay McKeen, the director of an environmental education organization based in State of Illinois. “And landfills—where we send as much as 40 percent of the food we produce—contribute to 14 percent of U.S. methane emissions every year.” That’s why, in 2014, McKeen began Pumpkin Smash.
For this collection event, local people can bring their used pumpkins to 69 different locations to send them off to trash bins, and of course smash them to pieces. Though the event is currently limited to several towns, but by their own calculations, the event has saved 538 tons of pumpkins from the landfill. “It puts nutrients (营养物) back in our soil, it saves water, and it doesn’t make methane gas,” says McKeen.
Baking and cooking offers an easier solution. Pureed (糊状的) pumpkin is a common ingredient in baked goods like breads and pies. Actually, pumpkins are full of vitamins and fiber, making it a great source of human nutrition. And according to the American Kennel Club, pumpkin mixed into dog food can even help settle a dog’s upset stomach. “They love it mixed with their dry dog food, and it’s very good for them,” says Anne Meier, president of the club.
24. Out of what did McKeen start Pumpkin Smash
A. Company profit. B. Educational purpose.
C. Food saving. D. Environmental concern.
25. What can we learn about Pumpkin Smash from Paragraph 3
A. It is widely accepted nationwide. B. It reduces the use of pumpkins.
C. It needs further improvement. D. It creates a win-win result.
26. What’s advised in the last paragraph
A. Place more smashing bins around. B. Use pureed pumpkins in baking.
C. Treat dog diseases with pumpkins. D. Expand the source of nutrition.
27. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A local newspaper. B. A story collection.
C. A biology textbook. D. An academic article.
C
Emotions, thoughts and ideas. We use language to transform abstract ideas into concrete ( 具体的) communication tools. How could we go ahead as a culture unless we shared a common understanding for popular words in the English language, such as book, friend or laugh, or uncommon words like biblioklept or hirquiticke
But that doesn’t mean words don’t fall out of fashion. In 2021, nine words were decided as “historical” and removed from dictionaries. Aerodrome, for example, was determined to be deleted from the Merriam-Webster dictionary because nowadays we usually call airplane landing fields “airports.”
So who, exactly, makes the decision to remove a word from a dictionary
The removal of dictionary words is left to lexicographers (词典编撰者), who not only decide which words to remove but also add new words and update changing definitions. Lexicographers also are responsible for adding new words. In 2022, for example, “demisexual” and “vaxxed” were added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
Truth is, it’s actually quite difficult for a word to lose its place in a dictionary. Lexicographers don’t take word-removal lightly. When a word comes into question, dictionary editors will first do series of online surveys among dictionary users. Editors then will examine its meaning, usage and popularity across many large language databases that cover a variety of frequently-used examples. Based on the survey results and collected information, lexicographers will hold rounds of formal discussions and vote for the final decision. Often, words that are removed from printed dictionaries are allowed to remain part of online dictionaries.
Despite the careful word addition and removal process, dictionaries aren’t immune to mistakes. For a time, “redripening” appeared in most dictionaries as one word, when it actually should have been “red-ripening.”
28. Why was “aerodrome” removed from the Merriam-Webster dictionary
A. Its definition was wrong. B. It was invented long time ago.
C. It was decided by the editors. D. It wasn’t applicable to modern life.
29. Which of the following best describes the word-removal process
A. Strict. B. Creative. C. Painful. D. Natural.
30 Why is “redrippening” mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To introduce a newly-removed word.
B. To stress the huge popularity of this word.
C. To show dictionaries sometimes make mistakes.
D. To reveal the disadvantage of the removal process.
31. What’s the suitable title for the text
A. Who Are Lexicographers B. Why Does a Dictionary Become Outdated
C. What Caused Words to Change D. How Are Words Removed from a Dictionary
D
One bird may not make a summer but seeing or hearing birds does improve mental wellbeing, a ground-breaking study in the journal Scientific Reports has found.
Researchers tracked 1, 292 participants’ everyday encounters with birds last year via a smartphone app called Urban Mind. Over the course of two weeks, the participants, from the UK, Europe, the US, China and Australia, were asked every two hours to document how they were feeling, including whether they were happy or stressed.
The researchers found that participants’ average mental wellbeing scores increased when they saw or heard birds, including among those who said they had been diagnosed (诊断) with depression.
Andrea Mechelli professor of early intervention (干涉) in mental health at King’s College London, said that the positive effect of bird encounters on people with depression was significant because many “interventions that help so-called ‘healthy people’ don’t work for individuals with mental health issues”. Mechelli said, “We know exercise makes everyone feel better. But it’s so challenging to motivate someone with depression to exercise, while contact with bird life is something that, perhaps, is feasible.”
Adrian Thomas, the author of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds’ Guide to Birdsong, said the report’s findings came as no surprise as most people described their reaction to birdsong as joy. He added, “Birdsong would have once been the natural soundtrack to all human lives, and I do think that it is rooted somewhere deep within us. It is related with spring and good times coming, which is just one of the reasons why we need to appreciate the role of birds in our life and ensure that nature.”
32. What were the participants asked to do
A. To keep track of birds. B. To keep record of moods.
C. To report health issues. D. To analyze feeling changes.
33. What does the underline word “feasible” mean in paragraph 4
A. Practicable. B. Inspiring. C. Measurable. D. Effective.
34. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Potential application of the research results. B. A reasonable doubt to the research question.
C. Detailed descriptions of the research process. D. A further explanation of the research findings.
35. Which of the following may the research contribute to
A. Bird watching activity. B. Stress relief methods.
C. Bird protection campaign. D. Mental health treatment.

Alexis and Zoe were sitting at the kitchen table doing homework. They were having a hard time concentrating on their assignment because the radio station was playing music from their favorite band, the Shape Shifters.
“I can’t believe the Shifters are going to be playing here and we can’t go!” Alexis complained. “I know,” complained Zoe. “Tickets were sold out in five minutes, and even if we could get some, they are so expensive!”
“It’s totally unfair,” said Alexis. “They should give the tickets to their biggest fans first!” “You mean us, right ” “Obviously,” laughed Alexis. “Everyone knows we’re their number one fans.”
Zoe turned the radio up a little louder. Their favorite song was on, and using a pencil and a banana as microphones (麦克风), they sang loudly as if they were at the concert.
As the song ended, the host started talking about the concert. “The Shape Shifters are playing in town this weekend,” he announced loudly. “And we’re giving away two tickets to Saturday’s sold-out show, right now! We’re looking for the 10th caller who can correctly answer this question: Who is the oldest member of the Shape Shifters ”
Alexis and Zoe looked at each other. They couldn’t believe how easy the question was. “It’s Georgie!” said Alexis. “No, it’s Natasha,” answered Zoe.
“What do you mean ” asked Alexis. “Everyone knows Georgie is 29, he’s much older than the rest of the band.” “Yeah, I know he’s the oldest person, but the question was who the oldest member of the band is. Natasha started the band when she was just 15. The others joined the group after her.” explained Zoe. ” “But…” Alexis wasn’t convinced.
As they listened, they heard the host taking calls from excited fans. “Caller Number Three, you’re up! What’s your answer ” “Georgie,” said the nervous voice. “Wrong again,” boomed the host. “Nobody seems to know the answer! Next caller!”
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右；

【解析】
【原文】Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to give you some ideas about how life at an American university might be different from that in your own country. To be sure, the body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U. S. campus come from a wide variety of social and economic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time, to pay for the student loan. The number of foreign students is large. They come from Canada, China, Germany, India and so on, but the largest population is Chinese. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U. S. college or university campus. As a new-comer, my advice for such a difference is to respect. Now that you have some general idea of the different university life here, I’d like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.

细节理解题。根据第二段“Our cultural workshops are the perfect way to experience an exciting range of Chinese cultural activities.(我们的文化工作坊是体验一系列令人兴奋的中国文化活动的完美方式)”以及第三段“We offer a selection of workshops designed to introduce China.(我们提供一系列旨在介绍中国的工作坊)”可知，研讨会的主题是中国文化元素。故选A。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Workshop requirements部分中“If you are booking calligraphy sessions, which is considered quite difficult to learn, we ask that one single space is provided for the day, as the setup can take quite a lot of time.(如果您预订书法课程，这被认为是相当困难的学习，我们要求一天提供一个单独的空间，因为设置可能会花费相当多的时间)”可知，书法课要预留一个单独的地方来上课是因为准备工作很耗时。故选C。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据Fees部分中“We charge ?40 for each individual workshop session. If you’d like to have more than two workshop sessions, we would offer a 30 percent discount.(我们每节课收费40欧元。如果您想参加两次以上的研讨会，我们可以提供30%的折扣)”可知，如果你申请3个工作坊，费用是（40+40+40）×（100-30%）=?84。故选B。

More than one billion pounds of pumpkins are grown in the U.S. every year, and after they’ve been used for Halloween decorations, millions of them—large, mini, orange, white—will end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场).
“Driving around after Halloween, you see people with pumpkins on top of their garbage bins. All of that will go to a landfill and become methane gas which warms the atmosphere in a shorter amount of time than carbon dioxide,” says Kay McKeen, the director of an environmental education organization based in State of Illinois. “And landfills—where we send as much as 40 percent of the food we produce—contribute to 14 percent of U.S. methane emissions every year.” That’s why, in 2014, McKeen began Pumpkin Smash.
For this collection event local people can bring their used pumpkins to 69 different locations to send them off to trash bins, and of course smash them to pieces. Though the event is currently limited to several towns, but by their own calculations, the event has saved 538 tons of pumpkins from the landfill. “It puts nutrients (营养物) back in our soil, it saves water, and it doesn’t make methane gas,” says McKeen.
Baking and cooking offers an easier solution. Pureed (糊状的) pumpkin is a common ingredient in baked goods like breads and pies. Actually, pumpkins are full of vitamins and fiber, making it a great source of human nutrition. And according to the American Kennel Club, pumpkin mixed into dog food can even help settle a dog’s upset stomach. “They love it mixed with their dry dog food, and it’s very good for them,” says Anne Meier, president of the club.
24. Out of what did McKeen start Pumpkin Smash
A. Company profit. B. Educational purpose.
C. Food saving. D. Environmental concern.
25. What can we learn about Pumpkin Smash from Paragraph 3
A. It is widely accepted nationwide. B. It reduces the use of pumpkins.
C. It needs further improvement. D. It creates a win-win result.
26. What’s advised in the last paragraph
A. Place more smashing bins around. B. Use pureed pumpkins in baking.
C Treat dog diseases with pumpkins. D. Expand the source of nutrition.
27. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A local newspaper. B. A story collection.
C. A biology textbook. D. An academic article.
【答案】24. D 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了每年万圣节后，会有许多南瓜被浪费，所以Kay McKeen创办《南瓜粉碎》来保护环境。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““Driving around after Halloween, you see people with pumpkins on top of their garbage bins. All of that will go to a landfill and become methane gas which warms the atmosphere in a shorter amount of time than carbon dioxide,” says Kay McKeen, the director of an environmental education organization based in State of Illinois. “And landfills—where we send as much as 40 percent of the food we produce—contribute to 14 percent of U.S. methane emissions every year.” That’s why, in 2014, McKeen began Pumpkin Smash.(“万圣节过后开车四处转转，你会看到人们在垃圾桶上放南瓜。所有这些都将进入垃圾填埋场，变成甲烷气体，在比二氧化碳更短的时间内使大气变暖，”伊利诺斯州一家环境教育组织的负责人凯·麦基恩说。“而垃圾填埋场——我们生产的40%的食物都被送到那里——每年占美国甲烷排放量的14%。”这就是为什么麦基恩在2014年创办了《南瓜粉碎》)”可知，麦基恩出于环境问题开始《南瓜粉碎》。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Though the event is currently limited to several towns, but by their own calculations, the event has saved 538 tons of pumpkins from the landfill. “It puts nutrients (营养物) back in our soil, it saves water, and it doesn’t make methane gas,” says McKeen.(虽然这项活动目前仅限于几个城镇，但据他们自己的计算，这项活动已经从垃圾填埋场中节省了538吨南瓜。麦基恩说：“它把营养物质放回土壤中，它节约了水，而且它不会产生甲烷气体。”)”可知，《南瓜粉碎》创造了一个双赢的结果。故选D。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Pureed (糊状的) pumpkin is a common ingredient in baked goods like breads and pies.(南瓜泥是面包和馅饼等烘焙食品的常见成分)”可知，最后一段的建议是在烘焙时使用南瓜泥。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“More than one billion pounds of pumpkins are grown in the U.S. every year, and after they’ve been used for Halloween decorations, millions of them—large, mini, orange, white—will end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场).(美国每年种植超过10亿磅的南瓜，在它们被用作万圣节装饰之后，数百万的南瓜——大的、小的、橙色的、白色的——最终会被扔进垃圾填埋场)”结合文章主要说明了每年万圣节后，会有许多南瓜被浪费，所以Kay McKeen创办《南瓜粉碎》来保护环境。可推知，文章选自当地报纸，故选A。
C
Emotions, thoughts and ideas. We use language to transform abstract ideas into concrete ( 具体的) communication tools. How could we go ahead as a culture unless we shared a common understanding for popular words in the English language, such as book, friend or laugh, or uncommon words like biblioklept or hirquiticke
But that doesn’t mean words don’t fall out of fashion. In 2021, nine words were decided as “historical” and removed from dictionaries. Aerodrome, for example, was determined to be deleted from the Merriam-Webster dictionary because nowadays we usually call airplane landing fields “airports.”
So who, exactly, makes the decision to remove a word from a dictionary
The removal of dictionary words is left to lexicographers (词典编撰者), who not only decide which words to remove but also add new words and update changing definitions. Lexicographers also are responsible for adding new words. In 2022, for example, “demisexual” and “vaxxed” were added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
Truth is, it’s actually quite difficult for a word to lose its place in a dictionary. Lexicographers don’t take word-removal lightly. When a word comes into question, dictionary editors will first do series of online surveys among dictionary users. Editors then will examine its meaning, usage and popularity across many large language databases that cover a variety of frequently-used examples. Based on the survey results and collected information, lexicographers will hold rounds of formal discussions and vote for the final decision. Often, words that are removed from printed dictionaries are allowed to remain part of online dictionaries.
Despite the careful word addition and removal process, dictionaries aren’t immune to mistakes. For a time, “redripening” appeared in most dictionaries as one word, when it actually should have been “red-ripening.”
28. Why was “aerodrome” removed from the Merriam-Webster dictionary
A. Its definition was wrong. B. It was invented long time ago.
C. It was decided by the editors. D. It wasn’t applicable to modern life.
29. Which of the following best describes the word-removal process
A. Strict. B. Creative. C. Painful. D. Natural.
30. Why is “redrippening” mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To introduce a newly-removed word.
B. To stress the huge popularity of this word.
C. To show dictionaries sometimes make mistakes.
D. To reveal the disadvantage of the removal process.
31. What’s the suitable title for the text
A. Who Are Lexicographers B. Why Does a Dictionary Become Outdated
C. What Caused Words to Change D. How Are Words Removed from a Dictionary
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述单词是如何从字典中被删除的。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But that doesn’t mean words don’t fall out of fashion. In 2021, nine words were decided as ‘historical’ and removed from dictionaries. Aerodrome, for example, was determined to be deleted from the Merriam-Webster dictionary because nowadays we usually call airplane landing fields ‘airports.’(但这并不意味着词汇不会过时。2021年，有9个单词被认定为‘历史词汇’，并被从词典中删除。例如，Aerodrome这个词被决定从韦氏词典中删除，因为现在我们通常把飞机降落场称为‘airports’)”可知，Aerodrome这个词被删除是因为它过时了，被认定是“历史词汇”，不适用于现代生活。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段内容，尤其是前两句“Truth is, it’s actually quite difficult for a word to lose its place in a dictionary. Lexicographers don’t take word-removal lightly.(事实上，一个单词很难在字典中失去它的位置。词典编纂者不会轻易删除单词)”和最后一段中“Despite the careful word addition and removal proces(尽管词典在添加和删除单词的过程中小心翼翼)”可知，从字典中删除单词的过程非常严格。故选A。
30题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中“Despite the careful word addition and removal process, dictionaries aren’t immune to mistakes.(尽管词典在添加和删除单词的过程中小心翼翼，但也难免会出现错误)”提到字典中难免会出现错误，接着下句“For a time, ‘redripening’ appeared in most dictionaries as one word, when it actually should have been ‘red-ripening.’(有一段时间，‘redripening’作为一个单词出现在大多数词典中，而实际上它应该是‘red-ripening’)”以“redrippening”为例，表明字典有时也会犯错。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第三段“So who, exactly, makes the decision to remove a word from a dictionary (那么，究竟是谁决定从字典中删除一个单词呢)”可知，文章主要讲述字典删除单词的过程，D项“单词是如何从字典中被删除的？”为最佳标题。故选D。
D
One bird may not make a summer but seeing or hearing birds does improve mental wellbeing, a ground-breaking study in the journal Scientific Reports has found.
Researchers tracked 1, 292 participants’ everyday encounters with birds last year via a smartphone app called Urban Mind. Over the course of two weeks, the participants, from the UK, Europe, the US, China and Australia, were asked every two hours to document how they were feeling, including whether they were happy or stressed.
The researchers found that participants’ average mental wellbeing scores increased when they saw or heard birds, including among those who said they had been diagnosed (诊断) with depression.
Andrea Mechelli, professor of early intervention (干涉) in mental health at King’s College London, said that the positive effect of bird encounters on people with depression was significant because many “interventions that help so-called ‘healthy people’ don’t work for individuals with mental health issues”. Mechelli said, “We know exercise makes everyone feel better. But it’s so challenging to motivate someone with depression to exercise, while contact with bird life is something that, perhaps, is feasible.”
Adrian Thomas, the author of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds’ Guide to Birdsong, said the report’s findings came as no surprise as most people described their reaction to birdsong as joy. He added, “Birdsong would have once been the natural soundtrack to all human lives, and I do think that it is rooted somewhere deep within us. It is related with spring and good times coming, which is just one of the reasons why we need to appreciate the role of birds in our life and ensure that nature.”
32. What were the participants asked to do
A. To keep track of birds. B. To keep record of moods.
C. To report health issues. D. To analyze feeling changes.
33. What does the underline word “feasible” mean in paragraph 4
A. Practicable. B. Inspiring. C. Measurable. D. Effective.
34. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Potential application of the research results. B. A reasonable doubt to the research question.
C. Detailed descriptions of the research process. D. A further explanation of the research findings.
35. Which of the following may the research contribute to
A. Bird watching activity. B. Stress relief methods.
C. Bird protection campaign. D. Mental health treatment.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了发表在《科学报告》杂志上的一项突破性研究发现，看到或听到鸟的声音确实能改善心理健康。文章解释了研究的经过以及发现。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Over the course of two weeks, the participants, from the UK, Europe, the US, China and Australia, were asked every two hours to document how they were feeling, including whether they were happy or stressed.(在两周的时间里，来自英国、欧洲、美国、中国和澳大利亚的参与者被要求每两小时记录一次他们的感受，包括他们是快乐还是有压力)”可知，参与者被要求记录心情。故选B。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“But it’s so challenging to motivate someone with depression to exercise, while contact with bird life is something that, perhaps, is”中while表示前后对比，可知激励抑郁症患者锻炼身体是非常具有挑战性的，而与鸟类接触也许是可行的。故划线词意思是“可行的”。故选A。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Adrian Thomas, the author of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds’ Guide to Birdsong, said the report’s findings came as no surprise as most people described their reaction to birdsong as joy. He added, “Birdsong would have once been the natural soundtrack to all human lives, and I do think that it is rooted somewhere deep within us. It is related with spring and good times coming, which is just one of the reasons why we need to appreciate the role of birds in our life and ensure that nature.”(《鸟类保护皇家学会鸟鸣指南》的作者阿德里安·托马斯说，该报告的发现并不令人惊讶，因为大多数人将他们对鸟鸣的反应描述为喜悦。他补充说：“鸟鸣曾经是所有人类生命的自然配乐，我确实认为它植根于我们内心深处的某个地方。它与春天和美好时光的到来有关，这只是我们需要欣赏鸟类在我们生活中的作用并确保自然的原因之一。”)”可知，最后一段主要讲对研究结果的进一步解释。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“One bird may not make a summer but seeing or hearing birds does improve mental wellbeing, a ground-breaking study in the journal Scientific Reports has found.”（发表在《科学报告》杂志上的一项突破性研究发现，一只鸟可能不会构成一个夏天，但看到或听到鸟的声音确实能改善心理健康）根据倒数第二段“Andrea Mechelli, professor of early intervention (干涉) in mental health at King’s College London, said that the positive effect of bird encounters on people with depression was significant .(伦敦国王学院心理健康早期干预教授Andrea Mechelli说，鸟类相遇对抑郁症患者的积极影响是显著的。)”可知，该研究可能有助于心理健康治疗。故选D。

【39题详解】
根据上文“I apologize.(我道歉。)”可知，McCarthy为自己的行为道歉，E项“I didn’t think the photo would cause such great offence.(我没想到这张照片会引起这么大的冒犯。)”承接上文，是道歉的内容，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为Orange和Washington县的中学生设计的一个徒步项目及其好处。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：奥兰治县和华盛顿县的居民们注意了：如果你想让你的中学生放下手机，到树林里散步，我们为你准备了一个课后项目。program是可数名词，此处泛指“一个课后项目”，应用不定冠词，且“afterschool”是以元音音素开头，故填an。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意：从2022年9月1日开始，该项目允许奥兰治县和华盛顿县的中学生在每个工作日的下午花三个小时在圣人山植物保护区。空后的“September 1, 2022”是指具体某一天，应用介词on，故填on。
【58题详解】
考查连词。句意：从下午2点半到5点半，户外教育工作者将带领他们徒步旅行，研究动物的足迹，帮助他们学习搭建庇护所，教他们生火。结合句意可知，“study animal tracks, help them learn shelter building”和空后的“each them to make a fire”是并列关系，应用连词and连接，故填and。
【59题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：该项目由一家慈善机构赞助，专为青少年设计，否则他们可能无法获得以自然为基础的丰富课程。固定短语be designed for“为了……而设计，目的是”，句子是描述一个一般性事实，应用一般现在时，主语“program”是名词单数，故填is designed。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：该保护区于1987年由医生兼作家Rosemary Gladstar资助，30年来一直在开展青少年项目，包括夏令营和学校实地考察，尽管这是它第一次提供课后活动。动词“fund”和“The reserve”之间是动宾关系，应用过去分词作状语，表示被动，故填funded。
【61题详解】
考查序数词。句意同上。结合句意可知，此处指“这是它第一次提供课后活动”，应用序数词，故填first。
【62题详解】
考查形容词。句意：主任Emily Ruff说，该项目采用了华盛顿州荒野意识学校的教育理念，并补充说，该项目可以创造一个安全的环境，让孩子们可以玩耍和探索他们的世界，并发现他们独特的天赋。空处应填形容词作定语，修饰名词“philosophy”，educational“教育的”，形容词，故填educational。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词是“environment”，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词where引导，故填where。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它还可以帮助孩子们发展解决问题的能力，从而建立更深层次的学习，并与自己和自然世界建立联系。结合句意可知，此处表示目的，应用动词不定式，作目的状语，故填to build。
【65题详解】
考查反身代词。句意同上。结合句意可知，此处指“帮助孩子们与他们自身建立联系”，应用反身代词，作介词with的宾语，故填themselves。

67. 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。
Alexis and Zoe were sitting at the kitchen table doing homework. They were having a hard time concentrating on their assignment because the radio station was playing music from their favorite band, the Shape Shifters.
“I can’t believe the Shifters are going to be playing here and we can’t go!” Alexis complained. “I know,” complained Zoe. “Tickets were sold out in five minutes, and even if we could get some, they are so expensive!”
“It’s totally unfair,” said Alexis. “They should give the tickets to their biggest fans first!” “You mean us, right ” “Obviously,” laughed Alexis. “Everyone knows we’re their number one fans.”
Zoe turned the radio up a little louder. Their favorite song was on, and using a pencil and a banana as microphones (麦克风), they sang loudly as if they were at the concert.
As the song ended, the host started talking about the concert. “The Shape Shifters are playing in town this weekend,” he announced loudly. “And we’re giving away two tickets to Saturday’s sold-out show, right now! We’re looking for the 10th caller who can correctly answer this question: Who is the oldest member of the Shape Shifters ”
Alexis and Zoe looked at each other. They couldn’t believe how easy the question was. “It’s Georgie!” said Alexis. “No, it’s Natasha,” answered Zoe.
“What do you mean ” asked Alexis. “Everyone knows Georgie is 29, he’s much older than the rest of the band.” “Yeah, I know he’s the oldest person, but the question was who the oldest member of the band is. Natasha started the band when she was just 15. The others joined the group after her.” explained Zoe. ” “But…” Alexis wasn’t convinced.
As they listened, they heard the host taking calls from excited fans. “Caller Number Three, you’re up! What’s your answer ” “Georgie,” said the nervous voice. “Wrong again,” boomed the host. “Nobody seems to know the answer! Next caller!”
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。
“You’re right! CALL THE STATION NOW!” Alexis said.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“What are your names, ladies ” the host asked seriously.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
“You’re right! CALL THE STATION NOW!” Alexis said. Zoe dialed the numbers as fast as her fingers could fly, and they stood together, ears pressed to the phone. After what seemed like a century, a familiar voice answered. “Hello, lucky caller number 10! I hope you have the right answer.” said the host. “Okay,” Zoe said breathlessly. “We think people didn’t understand the question. You asked which ‘member’, not ‘person’, was the oldest—and that means who has been in the band the longest: that’s Natasha!” The girls waited, unable to move. The kitchen clocked ticked, stretching out each slow second. Were they wrong Were they going to miss out on their only chance to see their favorite band in the whole world
“What are your names, ladies ” the host asked seriously. “I’m Zoe, here with my best friend, Alexis!” “Well…” host drawled, making the girls tense up with anticipation. “Congratulations, Zoe and Alexis!” he shouted. “You’ve won two tickets to the Shape Shifters’ concert!” The girls screamed, dropping the telephone in their frenzy. They picked it hastily and could hear the announcer chuckling on the other end. “You sound a little excited about it,” he said. “You must be big fans of the band.” “The BIGGEST!” answered the girls, hugging each other happily.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alexis和Zoe在家里做作业，电台正在播放她们最喜欢的乐队的音乐，这个乐队即将在镇上演出，她们非常渴望去音乐会，但是买不到票，而且也非常昂贵。节目结束后，主持人提出问题“谁是乐队中年龄最大的成员？”并且宣布第十个能正确回答问题的人能赢得两张周六演出的门票，Alexis认为答案是Georgie，而Zoe认为是Natasha，她们听着主持人接听粉丝打来的电话，但是似乎没有人知道答案。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“‘你是对的！马上给电台打电话！’Alexis说。”可知，第一段可描写她们打通电话并回答问题。
②由第二段首句内容“‘女士们，你们叫什么名字？’主持人严肃地问。”可知，第二段可描写主持人宣布她们回答正确以及她们的反应。
