"I saw a polluted beach," he said. "The adults are doing something about it. Why can't I?"
With the help of his mom, Miles then started an organization called Kids Saving Oceans. What started with $13 from his piggy bank as a 6-year-old boy has grown to $26,000 raised for ocean conservation (保护). He would sell things like hats, T-shirts and water bottles made out of recycled materials for a good cause. Before he turned
18, he wanted to raise $1million for ocean conservation organizations. Miles, now 12, is in the business of saving oceans.
Miles has even met with leaders in Washington, D. C. and helped co-write a book called Kids Saving Oceans: Olivia Makes a Difference. "It's about a kid named Olivia and she doesn't want to just help her dad in the kitchen. She wants to change the world a little bit so she does her research and finds out the oceans are in trouble. She starts with a basic beach cleanup and it rockets off from there," Miles said.
Madeline Stoddard, Miles' teacher, said other students in her classroom were inspired by Miles. "It shows that it doesn't matter how young you are. Everyone can do something to create change," Madeline said.
Miles lives in Florida now. He has loved the ocean for as long as he can remember. He said, "Getting into conservation was just kind of personal to me." But to other kids who want to do this kind of work, he said, "If you have an idea, go for it. The worst thing you can do is have it not work out. And that's not a loss."
(1)、Why was the Kids Saving Oceans established?A、To save animals. B、To make big money. C、To protect the oceans. D、To influence the adults.(2)、What can we learn from paragraph 3?A、Olivia was too busy to help her dad. B、Miles and Olivia have the same goal. C、The book is about recycled materials. D、Olivia failed to save the oceans at first.(3)、Which of the following can best describe Miles?A、Confident and active. B、Friendly and graceful. C、Inspiring and curious. D、Patient and successful.(4)、What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?A、Every cloud has a silver lining. B、The early bird catches the worm. C、Actions speak louder than words. D、Nothing risked, nothing gained.13. 阅读理解If you have been out and about in Atlanta, you have probably seen something very unusual—groups of people who are reading silently to themselves. These meet-ups are a way for people to read and socialize, which is part of a growing trend of Silent Book Club (SBC).
The global organization has over 1,000 branches where adults of all ages come to read. The first chapter was founded in San Francisco in 2012 by two women, and the idea really took off and is now fostering this love of reading and connection in 50 countries.
The Atlanta chapter usually has between 130 and 170 people attending. It is increasingly popular with the participants. "It is a space where I can quietly read with others," Danielle Clarke, a reader with SBC Atlanta, said.
Once the reading session ends, people can move around and socialize with one another, or not. "As a new reader, I thought it would be special to step into this space with my books and hopefully meet new people," said Spencer Bonner, another reader with SBC Atlanta.
SBC is part of a new resurgence (复苏) of the old-style book clubs, where everyone reads the same book and comes together to discuss it.
In this digital world where people work long days on computers, book clubs are a way to make genuine human offline connections.
"I want to connect with my friends in a context that doesn't rely on spending money and the book club offers at least one inexpensive social opportunity per month," one book club regular said.
Some book clubs focus on economic issues while others focus on literature. What they all have in common is that they give people a sense of belonging, something everyone needs.
(1)、What phenomenon will you see in Atlanta?A、People seldom read alone. B、People read quietly together. C、People like to get together. D、People spare no effort to socialize.(2)、What can be learned about SBC?A、It is female readers' favourite. B、It focuses on literary works. C、It is increasingly popular. D、It holds online reading events.(3)、What does SBC satisfy according to the last paragraph?A、Thirst for knowledge. B、Need to discussion. C、Search for partners. D、Desire to belong.(4)、What would be a suitable title for the text?A、SBC: An Old Social Tradition B、SBC: Bridging Digital Divides C、SBC: Redefining Literary Gatherings D、SBC: Mixing Reading And Socializing14. 阅读理解Climate change is a big problem for corals (珊瑚虫). I div e to find out. By keeping track of corals in French Polynesia, I hope to determine how much stress they're under.
Coral reefs are like underwater cities made up of tiny animals called corals. They are in symbiosis with tiny plants called algae (海藻). The algae make food for the corals using sunlight. This is called photosynthesis (光合作用). In return, corals produce carbon dioxide and waste, which can be used by the algae as raw materials for photosynthesis.
In French Polynesia, there's a place called Moorea where scientists study corals. My colleagues and I use special floating platforms to look at the corals from different angles. This helps us find problems, like when other plants try to take over.
Two types of coral, Acropora pulchra and Acropora cytherea, are being studied. The pulchra stays its usual dark yellow color, but the cytherea, which is usually light brown or purple, has turned white. This white color is not good. It happens when the water gets too warm for too long. The corals get stressed and push out the algae. Without the algae, the corals can't get food and they turn white, which can lead to them dying.
When my colleagues and I go diving, we use a plastic sheet to help us look at the corals and write down what we see. We check the water temperature, the color of the corals, and if we see any signs of the corals being in trouble.
Some corals seem to be stronger and can handle warmer water better than others. We want to find out why this is, so we can help protect corals. But the best way to help corals is to stop pollution and global warming, which are making the oceans too warm for them.
(1)、Why does the author keep track of corals?A、He loves sea animals. B、He is crazy about corals. C、He wants to study the survival condition of corals. D、He wants to be free of stress.(2)、What does the underlined word "symbiosis" in paragraph 2 refer to?A、Competition for resources. B、Living together in harmony. C、In support of the development. D、Improvement without providing benefit.(3)、What will happen when the water temperature rises above normal?A、The corals will lose the source of food. B、The coral will stay its purple color. C、Two kinds of coral will turn white. D、Some corals will become stronger.(4)、What is the key to protecting corals in the author's opinion?A、Protecting more sea plants. B、Putting more effort into coral research. C、Reducing pollution and stop global warming. D、Figuring out the relationship between corals and algae.四、第二部分,阅读,第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)

The Educational Value of Performing a Play
19. 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。"Never give up! Never give up!" chanted (吟诵) my two young children, Max and Charley, as they marched barefoot behind their grandmother Mia. They had just left the beach, where they had spent the day building sand castles and splashing in the waves. Now, Mia was leading Max and Charley on another adventure: They were seeking the ice-cream truck, which was always difficult to find.
Over the years, Mia had become our family's symbol of positivity. It was not a title she earned without effort, however. When my dad died, Mia was only forty years old and was left to raise me and my ten-year-old brother alone. She experienced a deeply sad event that could easily make anyone feel significantly less happy. She had been the one who had to make the decision to remove our dad from life support fourteen days after he died in a car accident.
My mom could have lived under a black cloud. Instead, she challenged herself to find joy every day. She was always up for a new challenge, whether that was hiking across the steep (陡峭的), rocky road of a mountaintop in Austria to get a better view of the breathtaking landscape, or signing up for tap-dancing classes at fifty. Leading by example, Mom taught us just how much one could achieve with a positive attitude.
She has taken the same approach in her relationship with her grandchildren. Before starting her adventure with Max and Charley on that hot July afternoon, Mia heard the familiar clang (叮当声) of the ice-cream man's bell from her beach chair. She turned and saw him briefly, spotting his green shirt and catching the gleam of his waving bell before he turned and disappeared over the dunes (沙丘). But you need to be fast because he doesn't stay for very long after you hear his bell.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Max and Charley were disappointed when they didn't catch the truck in time that day.
……
After about twenty minutes of walking, Max's faith in the mission began to waver(动摇).
