In poor weather, I read about sports or practiced my trombone(长号). The summer before my eighth grade I was one of a group of boys that a neighboring farmer hired to work in his field. He explained our basic task, the tractor fired up and we were off, riding down the field looking for weeds to spray with chemicals. After a short way, the farmer stopped and pointed at a weed which we missed. Then we began again. This happened over and over, but we soon learned to identify different grasses like cockleburs, lamb's-quarters, foxtails, and the king of weeds, the pretty purple thistle. It was tiring work, but I looked forward to the pay, even though I wasn't sure how much it would amount to. At home, my dad said, "A job's a big step to growing up. I'm glad you will be contributing to the household. " My dad's words made me realize that my earnings might not be mine to do with as I wished. My labors lasted about two weeks, and the farmer said there might be more work, but I wasn't interested. I decided it was not fair that I had to contribute my money.

15、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When fireworks are lit in celebration of the New Year, wild birds often experience lasting harmful effects. An international team of researchers tracked Arctic migratory(迁移的) geese as they traveled in Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands over eight New Year periods to study the impacts of fireworks. Data from 347 geese showed that birds suddenly leave where they are sleeping on New Year's Eve and fly farther away from where people are.
Geese' lives were disturbed by the noise and flashes and these geese ended up resting two hours less and sometimes flying nonstop as far as 310 miles compared to the nights when there were no fireworks.
Geese spend their winter in Western Europe to escape extreme Arctic winters in their breeding grounds. Still, winters here are maybe not severely cold, but rather dark. As predators(食肉动物) are around in the dark, geese can only search for food in the light hours. During the night, they usually settle on small lakes to save energy and rest in relative safety. During New Year's Eve, geese are heavily scared, as the fireworks sounds and flashing lights are unexpected to them and they view them as a threat to their life.
But their changed behavior didn't end with the fireworks. The geese didn't return to their original sleeping locations and spent more time searching for food to store energy for days after the celebrations ended.
The researchers hope that the findings will be used to improve fireworks management. They want to provide decision makers with real numbers to support their discussions. As already stated above, they suggest that some measures should be taken for geese to escape fireworks' disturbance during New Year's Eve—nationwide regulations regarding nature reserve areas and some centralization of fireworks displays, as well as lighting public fireworks in urban areas away from where the geese live.
(1)、What may the author think of the situation of geese during the New Year?A、Worrying. B、Promising. C、Touching. D、Amusing.(2)、What can we know about geese from paragraph 3?A、They enjoy flying in the dark. B、They spend the winter in the Arctic. C、They are terrified of fireworks. D、They usually search for food at night.(3)、What is the researchers' advice on protecting geese?A、Setting up goose parks in the city. B、Banning fireworks during New Year's Eve. C、Persuading people into buying silent fireworks. D、Setting off fireworks far from geese' habitats.(4)、In which section can this text be found in a newspaper?A、Travel. B、Nature. C、Culture. D、Education. -
16、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Today, the world's diversity (多样性) of food crops is quickly decreasing. But scientists around the world are taking action. They are building seed banks. At seed banks, scientists store the seeds of many different crops.
There are now about 1,400 seed banks around the world. However, some banks are in warm countries. If the electricity fails, the seeds will get too hot and die. Other seed banks are in countries troubled by war. Sometimes people damage the seed banks. If this happens, valuable seeds can be lost forever!
The organisation Global Crop Diversity Trust decided they wanted to deal with this problem. So, they decided to build a global seed bank. This seed bank would contain a back-up, or extra copy, of all the world's seeds. Smaller seed banks would still collect and keep local seeds. But they would also send copies of their seeds to the global bank.
Scientists from the Global Crop Diversity Trust chose the cold, snowy mountains of Svalbard, Norway to build the global seed bank—the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (斯瓦尔巴全球种子库).Organisations,farmers, or local seed banks store their extra seeds there. And the people who place their seeds in the vault are the only people who can take them out. They pay to ship their seeds to Norway, but it does not cost them any money to store their seeds. The Global Crop Diversity Trust pays for this.
Cary Fowler is a scientist who heads the Global Crop Diversity Trust. He said, "If the Seed Vault simply supplies seed banks with copies of seeds that those banks lost by accident, the Seed Vault will be worth more than it cost. "
(1)、What is the purpose of building the seed banks?A、To research on seeds. B、To produce new seeds. C、To protect crop diversity. D、To increase the number of seeds.(2)、Compared with other seed banks,the global seed bank ____.A、was built by the government B、is more welcomed by farmers C、is mainly used by great scientists D、can provide a good environment for seeds(3)、What can we learn about the Svalbard Global Seed Vault?A、It helps to pay the shipping cost. B、No one can take seeds out of there. C、There are no fees to store seeds there. D、It mainly receives seeds from farmers.(4)、What is Cary Fowler's attitude towards the Seed Vault?A、He feels it is very important. B、He is surprised at it. C、He thinks it costs too much. D、He is uncertain about it. -
17、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
By my mid-20s, I'd finished my master in psychology, and I was working in Dublin as a health researcher. It was mostly data and statistics work staring at a screen. I was earning more than most of my friends, living the city life, going out at weekends. I had a good pension (养老金) and annual leave but it caused a lot of anxiety and worry. I was really unhappy.
I wanted to get back to feeling passionate about something so I started thinking about the things I used to love. As a child, I'd always been involved in the outdoors, and I used to love hiking but all that had stopped after secondary school. I decided to volunteer with a local youth group and within a month, I'd gone camping with them. I absolutely loved it. It was likes switching on a lightbulb. This was what I'd been missing.
I started taking courses in mountain skills and wilderness first aid, and by August I was working my usual job in the week, and I was a climbing club leader at weekends. I loved connecting with nature, connecting with other people.
Through all this, I learnt about the whole field of nature-based therapies (疗法). It was the perfect fit to combine my psychology background with my passion for the outdoors. I began taking courses in wild therapy, forest bathing and ecopsychology. I left my government job and in July 2020 I launched my business Nature Therapy Ireland, which is booming now.
I'd thought I'd always live in a city but last year, I moved to Tipperary to live at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by nature. If I'm feeling stressed, I can step outside in my bare feet and stand on the grass to ground myself. In Dublin, the front door felt like a barrier—I had to have my keys, my phone, my jacket before I could even go out and find a green space. My life now is leading nature connection hikes and forest bathing walks. My salary has halved for the moment but I've adjusted. I've never looked back.
(1)、What did the writer think of her job in Dublin?A、Stressful. B、Valueless. C、Insecure. D、Demanding.(2)、What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 2?A、She enjoyed her voluntary work. B、She realized what she really loved. C、Recalling the past made her happy. D、A bright future was in store for her.(3)、What drove the writer to launch her business Nature Therapy Ireland?A、Her adventurous experience. B、Her leadership and background. C、Her connection with other people. D、Her major and passion for nature.(4)、Why did the writer compare her life in Dublin with that in Tipperary?A、To highlight how boring city life was. B、To call on people to get back to nature. C、To show her satisfaction with her change. D、To indicate how successful her business was. -

19、 第二节阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
What does it mean to be a hero? I think a hero is someone who goes out of his way to make others happy. My hero is Mr. Wright, my chorus(合唱队) teacher.
When I was 12 years old, my grandparents passed away. I was really close to them, and losing them was the hardest thing I've ever had to go through. I couldn't eat, sleep, or think; I felt like I couldn't even breathe. It was as if my whole world had fallen down from under me, and I fell into this huge hole of depression(抑郁).
Although I was battling depression, I was determined to make my high school years the best of my life. It was difficult to be happy, but I had to try. I joined Women's Choir. Mr. Wright was the choral director and he was so funny that the first day, I just knew I had made the best decision of my life.
As the year progressed, I loved chorus more and more. I began to smile again and really enjoy life.
Then one day that all changed. My friends —or those that I thought were my friends —started talking about me behind my back. I was hurt, and I sat by myself. Mr. Wright came over and asked what was wrong. The look in his eyes told me that I could trust him. Trying hard to fight back tears, I told him the whole story. When I finished, he nodded and told me, "If you never learn anything from me, learn this: No one is worth stealing your joy."
Paragraph 1: What Mr. Wright said really struck a chord(心弦) in my heart.
Paragraph 2: Mr. Wright is a hero to everyone he meets.
