Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
On a visit to Japan, Wangari Maathai learned the story of the hummingbird () and the
forest fire. While the other animals run in fear, the hummingbird flies above the fire time and
again, leaving a few drops of water from its beak.
“Why do you bother？” the other animals shout at the hummingbird. “I'm doing the best that
I can，” the hummingbird replies.
“It's such a beautiful story，” Ms. Maathai says, thinking of the world's environmental problems.
“There's always something we can do with our little beak like the little hummingbird.”
In 2004 Maathai was honored with a Nobel Peace Prize for her work founding the Green Belt
Movement (GBM), which hires villagers, especially women, to improve the environment. Since
then, she's realized that people's values are what inspire them. If the values are good ones, good
actions will follow.
?If you don't have good values, you'll develop vices (恶劣行径)，” says Maathai. “And if we give
in to the vice, we destroy ourselves. We destroy the environment.” That's the message of her
new book.
In 1971, Maathai received a doctor's degree from the University of Nairobi, the largest
university in Kenya. She's now back in her homeland beginning work on the Wangari Maathai
Institute for Peace and Environmental Studies (WMI) at the University of Nairobi. “They want to
call it after me，” she says.
WMI will pay more attention to “learning by doing” and use knowledge to deal with real
problems. “What Africa needs is people who are willing to get their fingers dirty and work with
the people，” says Maathai.
Planting trees is one way people connect with the natural world. She continues to inspire
others. “There is no lasting peace until we have peace with the earth itself，” she says.

(2024·江西省九校联合考试)If you have an allergy to some food, even a very tiny bit of food can make you sick. Lots of kids have food allergies — about 3 million in the United States alone.
The foods that cause the most food allergies include peanuts and other nuts; seafood, such as shrimp; milk, particularly cow's milk; eggs; wheat.
What Is a Food Allergy?
Food allergies occur when your immune system makes a mistake. Usually, your immune system protects you from germs and disease. It does this by making antibodies that help you fight off bacteria, viruses, and other tiny organisms that can make you sick. But if you have a food allergy, your immune system mistakenly treats something in a certain food as if it's really dangerous to you.
What's a Reaction Like?
In the most serious cases, a food allergy can cause anaphylaxis (过敏症). This is a sudden, severe allergic reaction in which several problems occur all at once and can involve the skin, breathing, digestion, the heart and blood vessels. A person's blood pressure can drop, breathing tubes can narrow and the tongue can swell. People at risk for this kind of reaction have to be very careful and need a plan for handling emergencies, when they might need to get special medicine to stop these symptoms from getting worse.
What Will the Doctor Do?
If you think you may be allergic to a certain food, let your parents know. They will take you to the doctor to get it checked out. If your doctor thinks you might have a food allergy, he or she will probably send you to see a doctor who specializes in allergies. The allergy specialist will ask you about past reactions and how long it takes between eating the food and getting the symptom, such as hives. The allergist also may ask about whether anyone else in your family has allergies or other allergyrelated conditions. The allergist may also want to do a skin test. This is a way of seeing how your body reacts to a very small amount of the food that is giving you trouble.
1.According to the passage, you will have a food allergy when
your immune system ________.
A.recognizes tiny organisms in a certain food
B.mistakenly makes antibodies to help fight off something in a certain food
C.prevents something harmful in the food from entering your digestive system
D.releases chemicals to remove harmful things in a certain food
2.In the sudden and severe allergic reaction, which of the following may happen?
A.Blood pressure rising.
B.Lips swelling.
C.Breathing difficulty.
D.Heart beating becoming slow.
3.Which of the following suggestions is given to those at risk of severe allergic reaction?
A.Taking medicine as soon as an allergic reaction appears.
B.Avoiding eating any food when going outside.
C.Always carrying with special medicine for possible symptoms.
D.Preparing a plan for dealing with emergencies ahead of time.
4.What will an allergist do to check your food allergy out?
A.Ask you about the allergyassociated information.
B.Give you some medicine right away.
C.Enquire about your present feeling towards the food.
D.Give you a shot of liquid extract of food.

Life can be so wonderful，full of adventure and joy.It can also be full of challenges，setbacks(挫折) and heartbreaks.Whatever our circumstances，we generally still have dreams，hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones.Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem，because when we go to change the way we do things，up come the old patterns and pitfalls(陷阱) that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.
This tension between what we feel we can have and what we're seemingly able to have is the niggling(烦人的) suffering，the anxiety we feel.This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up.But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more.The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us.It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities.If you drop that，you begin to feel a little “dead” inside because you're dropping “you”．
So，if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck，how do we break these patterns?
Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time.This is good advice for a new adventure or just getting through today's challenges.
While，deep down，we know we can do it，our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't.That isn't a reason to stop; it's just the mind，that little man or woman on your shoulder，trying to talk you out of something again.It has done it many times before.It's all about starting simple and doing it now.
Decide and act before overthinking.When you do this you may feel a little，or large，release_from_the_jail_of_your_mind and you'll be on your way.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，作者介绍了在我们想要放弃的时候改变这种模式的一种方法就是重新选择目标并且迅速做出决定。
．It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should ________.
A．slow down and live a simple life
B．be careful when we choose to change
C．stick to our dreams under any circumstances
D．be content with what we already have
答案：C 细节理解题。文章第一段第三句Whatever our circumstances，we generally still have dreams，hopes and desires说不管在什么情况下，我们仍然有着梦想、希望和欲望。以及第二段最后一句If you drop that，you begin to feel a little “dead”inside because you're dropping “you”．如果你放弃了，你的内心会变得了无生机，因为你放下了你自己。故选C。
．What is the key to breaking the old patterns?
A．To focus on every detail.
B．To decide and take immediate action.
C．To listen to those close to us.
D．To think twice before we act.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段第一句Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time.可以知道为了打破旧格局需要决定一个新目标并且立刻做出决定。故选B。
3．Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?
A．Escape from your punishment.
B．Realization of your dreams.
C．Freedom from your tension.
D．Reduction of your expectations.
答案：C 推理判断题。根据画线句子可知其本意是逃出你内心的牢笼。结合上文中在过多思考之前快速决定和行动可以推测这个画线句子是指要从过多考虑的焦虑中解放自己。故选C。
．What does the author intend to tell us?
A．It's easier than we think to get what we want.
B．It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.
C．It's impractical to change our way of thinking.
D．It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.
答案：A 写作意图题。从全文来看，作者主要是想要强调果断的行动而不是空想来实现自己的梦想和欲望，比起想要成功，行动更加容易。故选A。
.任务型阅读(2024·石家庄市复习教学质量检测)You want your essay to be the one that is passed around the admissions office or not? It's a little bit like the difference between being famous and infamous. Here are some basic tips to avoid that infamous essay：● Don't write the “safe” essay.
1.________
It could be something that others have also experienced, but make sure to say how it affected you. Something personal and unique never fails to stand out.
● Avoid the generic and get specific.
Never write that you're “well rounded” or that “many people have influenced” you. 2.________ Real and specific experiences are a lot more convincing than something you copy from the Internet.
●3.________
There is no need to share your participation level (hours per week and weeks per year) because colleges ask for that information on your activity list. It is important for the students to use every opportunity to show who they are and impress the admissions office.
● Don't talk about rankings.
Many students love focusing on the numbers when they are writing their “why this college” essay. They believe they are flattering (讨好) the college by saying the reason why they want to attend is that the college is highly ranked in US News & World Report. Obviously schools are aware of their rankings. 4.________
● Don't complain.
If you have gone through difficult circumstances, you should share your story. Don't point fingers. 5.________
A better essay will talk about how you have dealt with, and hopefully overcome the obstacles you came across.
