11.Malaria,the world's most widespread parasitic (寄生蟲引起的) disease,kills as many as three million people every year,almost all of whom are under five,very poor,and African.In most years,more than five hundred million cases of illness result from the disease,although exact numbers are difficult to assess(評估) because many people don't (or can't) search for care.It is not unusual for a family earning less than two hundred dollars a year to spend a quarter of its income on malaria treatment,and what they often get no longer works.In countries like Tanzania,Mozambique,and the Gambia,no family,village,hospital,or workplace can remain unaffected for long.
Malaria starts suddenly,with violent chills,which are soon followed by an intense (強烈的)fever and,often,headaches.As the parasites multiply(增加),they take over the entire body.Malaria parasites live by eating the red blood cells they infect (感染).They can also go into blood vessels in the brain.If it doesn't kill you,malaria can happen again and again for years.The disease passed on to humans by female mosquitoes(蚊子) infected with one of four species of parasite.Together,the mosquito and the parasite are the most dangerous couple in the history of the earth.Malaria has five thousand genes,and its ability to change rapidly to protect itself from attack and resist(抵抗) new drugs has made it nearly impossible to control.Studies show that mosquitoes are passing on the virus more frequently,and there are more outbreaks in cities with large populations.Some of the disease's spread is due to global warming.
For decades,the first-choice treatment for malaria parasites in Africa has been chloroquine,a chemical which is very cheap and easy to make.Unfortunately,in most parts of the world,malaria parasites have become resistant to it.Effective medicines that help prevent resistance are already available,but they have been in short supply and are very expensive.If these drugs should fail,nobody knows what would come next.
(1)According to paragraph 1,many people don't search for care because
A.they are too poor
B.it is unusual to seek care
C.they can remain unaffected for long
D.there are too many people suffering from the disease
(2)People suffering from malaria
A.have to kill female mosquitoes
B.have their red blood cells infected
C.have ability to defend parasites
D.have sudden fever,followed by chills
(3)Which of the following may be the reason for the wide spread of the disease?
A.Its resistance to global warming.
B.Its ability to pass on the virus frequently.
C.Its ability to protect itself from attack and resist new drugs.
D.Its outbreaks in cities with large populations.
(4)It can be inferred from the passage that
A.the effective drugs are not easily available to most people
B.no drugs have been found to treat the disease
C.malaria has developed its ability to resist parasites
D.nobody knows what will be the drug to treat the disease組卷:2引用:1難度:0.6 -
12.MacArthur's love for sailing dates back to when she was just four years of age,when she first got the opportunity to have a try. "I'll never forget that feeling as a kid of setting foot on a boat for the first time," MacArthur said. "It's kind of struck me that this boat had everything we needed to take us anywhere in the world.And as a child,that opened up everything," she explained how it felt like the "greatest sense of freedom".
This experience lighted a passion within MacArthur.She knew then that she wanted to sail around the world.She had no idea how to achieve it - growing up in the countryside,it wasn't the most obvious career path - but she knew that was what she wanted to do at some stage.So,she acquired knowledge and saved up for years to seek a career in sailing.She would have potato and beans every day for eight years so that she could save up to buy the right equipment.By reaching certain financial goals and asking technical questions about sailing,MacArthur felt as though she was getting closer to her ambitions.
"When you know where you're going,you can actually get there - even if it seems impossible.The impossible could be possible and aiming high is not necessarily such a crazy thing to do." And it seems that MacArthur's drive to become a sailor went beyond her expectations.At the age of 24,she started to receive media attention after participating in the Vendee Globe,a single-handed non-stop yacht(游艇) race that goes around the world.She came in second place.Some three to four years later,MacArthur chose to sail for 71 days and 14 hours,covering more than 26,000 miles during the course of her journey.This led to MacArthur scoring a new world record in 2005,as the fastest person to sail around the globe single-handedly.While this record has since been surpassed,MacArthur is still considered as Britain's most successful off shore racer.
(1)What happened to MacArthur when she was four?
A.She was given a chance to sail.
B.She saw a boat for the first time.
C.She sailed around the world.
D.She got stuck in a boat.
(2)What do we know about MacArthur from paragraph 2?
A.She worked as a technician to earn money.
B.She got financial support for her ambitions.
C.She knew clearly about her career path.
D.She prepared herself for her goal.
(3)What happened to MacArthur in 2005?
A.She became the fastest person to sail around the world alone.
B.She began to gain a lot of media attention.
C.She took second place in a yacht race.
D.She had her record broken.
(4)What does the story mainly tell?
A.Follow your own course,and let people talk.
B.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C.Failure is the mother of success.
D.Doing is better than saying.組卷:1引用:2難度:0.6 -
13.The latest data from the Office for National Statistics shows that one in every 12 kids is living in homes where no one has worked for at least a year.That may be due to unemployment or issues such as sickness or disability that mean they can't work,and aren't required to.This is known as being in a "long term workless" family.
The issues faced by children in workless families have very bad influence on their development and education,limiting their future employment prospects,and reducing their opportunities to succeed throughout their lives.
Not only does worklessness reduce family income,it can also damage families' health and stability,and thus destroy children's development.This is because many workless families are held back by disadvantages such as debt,drug and alcohol dependency,and by homelessness.Suffering from the family problems,many children face a greater and greater possibility of repeating the poor outcomes of their parents.Government research has shown that children in workless families are almost twice as likely not to reach the expected level at all stages of their education.For example,three-quarters of children from families where no one works failed to reach the expected level at General Certificate of Secondary Education(GCSE),compared to around half of children in lower-income working families.
So attention should be paid to children in out-of-work homes.Having working parents means a child is more likely to do better at school,to have better health,education and development,and also means they are less likely to fall into crime.
But for some families,worklessness,or not employment,is the norm.They just choose not to work.These families often face huge barriers to getting on with their lives but they take the opportunities offered by the society.Parents' ability to work is frustrated by issues like low skills or poor mental or physical health,or drug and alcohol dependency,leaving children without the stability they need.
We all want to help workless families with complex problems so that their children can take advantage of the opportunities in Britain.We all want parents to have the chance to go out to earn a living and to enjoy the pleasure of work,so that their children can benefit from the good examples of working parents.In doing so,we should know the need to understand the complex issues that some families face and to develop a new approach to deal with poverty.Because the root causes are not financial.It is about helping families overcome the problems they face so that they can go as far as their talents and hard work will take them.We shouldn't retreat from acting to deal with disadvantages,because we know the costs of inaction to individuals,communities and society.
(1)According to the author,children in workless families may
A.have better performance at school
B.take chances to go out to earn a living
C.be more able to deal with their problems
D.live the same lifestyles that their parents had
(2)The underlined word "norm" in the fifth paragraph probably means
A.a huge barrier
B.a turning point
C.a typical standard
D.an unusual event
(3)In the last paragraph the author mainly talked about
A.raising of social welfare
B.solutions to the problems
C.development of the society
D.reforming of the government
(4)The main purpose of the passage is to
A.introduce a study on children in workless families
B.appeal to the readers to help children in workless families
C.present a new approach to deal with poverty of workless families
D.compare children's performances in workless families and low-income ones組卷:10引用:2難度:0.5 -
14.A new app promises to help Barcelona residents find the shadiest route between two places to avoid extreme heat.Cool Walks,a routing tool for people first developed at a data visualization contest,aims to show users a variety of walking routs to take for their intended destinations.
Users can choose the most direct route,a shady route that may take a little longer,or they can set the app to a special mode,which avoids direct sunlight at all costs.Users can also use the app to find drinking fountains,or places to shelter from the sun.
The app uses a tool called Lidar to create high-resolution models of ground,accurate to within 10 cm.This information is combined with data on the sun's path to work out where is in shade at any given time of day.
Barcelona is looking to use green spaces and trees as part of its efforts to mitigate the effects of global heating.The city's 20-year tree master plan aims to increase the proportion(比例) of land covered by trees from 25%to 30%.Although the tool only maps one neighborhood of Barcelona,it is hoped the research will provide information on how the city can adapt to extreme heat to protect its citizens and economy.
Heatwaves kill more people than any other climate risk.According to C40,a climatè leadership group made up of 97 cities around the world,extreme heat events in cities can cause death increase of up to 14%,as well as lower workforce productivity and damage infrastructure(基礎設施) such as roads and rail lines.
Jon Burke,a former consultant for Hackney in London,who was responsible for a massive expansion of tree planting in the district,said:"I think we should view this particular kind of app as a temporary measure to reduce the impacts of extreme heat…while cities rapidly invest in urban canopy(樹冠層) cover and broader green infrastructure."
(1)What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.The designer of the app.
B.The function of the app.
C.The potential users of the app.
D.The working principle of the app.
(2)What does the underlined word "mitigate" in 'Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.relieve
B.feel
C.consider
D.predict
(3)What is the purpose of paragraph 5?
A.To stress the importance of road construction.
B.To raise awareness of protecting the environment.
C.To indicate the background for designing the app.
D.To give warnings of more upcoming disasters.
(4)What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Jon Burke has a great sense of duty.
B.The district needs to be expanded.
C.Investment in tree planting is a wise choice.
D.The app is powerful enough to cope with heatwaves.組卷:1引用:3難度:0.5

15.The Spotlight Effect Have you ever felt as if the entire world was watching while you made a mistake?Well,here's some good news:it's likely that no one even noticed.
(1)
The spotlight effect exists because we all get used to seeing things through our own eyes.Every person is the main character in his or her story,and the events of our lives seem to have great importance.(3)
The spotlight effect is a very common part of the human experience.However,in some cases,it can lead to extreme social anxiety and nervousness around other people.Everyone suffers some degree of social anxiety.We all care about what others think,and we all want to be liked.It's normal to wonder about what effect we have on other people.(4)
Learning about the spotlight effect is important because it can help us reduce our anxiety.Next time you feel like everyone is staring at you,remind yourself that it's just your mind playing tricks on you.(5)
A.However,this can be a problem when the anxiety is too much to handle.
B.That's why fewer people notice the embarrassing circumstances they encounter.
C.Another good exercise is to make an effort to notice the people around you,rather than focusing on yourself.
D.The spotlight effect is a trick of the mind that makes us believe that people notice us more often than they really do.
E.What you can do at this moment is to ignore them.
F.We are so busy examining ourselves that we actually observe very little about everyone around us.
G.It can also appear when we score a big goal,ask someone on a date,or do a good deed.組卷:21引用:6難度:0.6

28.閱讀下面短文,根據所給情節進行續寫,使之構成一個完整的故事。
A friend is best found in adversity.
Since my school had shut down for COVID-19,I was expected to study at home.Unfortunately,I had little motivation to do any schoolwork.Whenever I sat down,my mind would wander off to other things.I had no focus but the final exams were coming up.
How could I possibly get myself prepared in one week?My hands started trembling and it was hard to breathe.My heart was pounding and tears were rolling down my face.My head felt heavier and heavier,dragging my body down to the ground as I started swaying back and forth and then plummeted(墜落) towards the floor.I couldn't see and I felt like I was slipping in and out of consciousness.
When I came to myself,I got up,took some medicine and never told anyone.I knew exactly what had happened—I had just had a panic attack.I'd battled anxiety since I was twelve,and,because of the increasing isolation due to COVID-19,my symptoms were worsening.I had experienced panic attacks before,though never as extreme as this one.
I convinced myself that if I just got some rest,things would be better in the morning.The new term was approaching and it stimulated my social anxiety.I wasn't ready to step into a room full of people who I didn't know.The first day of in-person class wasn't any better,as my heart pounded every time I spoke.Every day was a new day for anxiety to have a bad effect on my physical and mental health.
I remembered when the first real panic attack struck me,I ran to the bathroom and isolated myself in a stall(小隔間) for the whole period without anyone helping me.Although I powered through it,I still felt so lonely.I even got to the point where I had to stay home from school for a week so that I felt I could focus more.However,when Monday came again,I had to go back.
The first hour or so back at school was okay,I had to come up with excuses to explain my absence and re-assess any missing work I had.But then a hurricane of anxiety came crashing into me,destroying any hope of having a good day.I ran through the bustling(熙熙攘攘的) halls to the bathroom and closed myself into the last stall,hoping this attack would pass quickly.
注意:
(1)續寫詞數應為150左右;
(2)請按如下格式在相應位置作答。
But this time something was different;this time I wasn't alone.
Seeing Morgan,I forced a smile.
