2.My neighbors across the street take pride in one of the most striking trees in the neighborhood—a towering oak that is over 75 years old.This year,after a wet,warm summer,leaves were a bit different in my Massachusetts town.And through some combination of events,that glorious oak seemed to have dropped all of its uncountable leaves on a single windy day.I arrived at home that afternoon to find our front walkway,driveway and sidewalk completely blanketed.
My son and I had a great time making a leaf pile for jumping and enjoying pillowy fun.The whole time,I was fascinated by the speed of this year's leaf drop.Even though I was aware that it was an accident of wind patterns that left all the leaves in our yard,I kept looking up and feeling a rush of awe at the suddenly bare branches that watched quietly over our neighborhood,starting its restful season before setting spring leaf buds.
And I felt thankful for those fallen leaves as I was reminded of my favorite quote from the author and naturalist Hal Borland.He wrote it referencing October,but this year's later drop had me change the month: "November is the fallen leaf,but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen.It is the distant hills once more in sight,and the enduring constellations(星座) above them once again. "
When I lay in that pile of dry,crisp leaves and looked up into the oak tree across the street,I felt a clarity and peace that comes along with the inconveniently early sunsets and chilly temperatures of the transition from fall into winter.I could still admire the tree as I had in spring and summer,but I could also see through it,beyond it,to the big sky that blankets us all.
(1)What's unusual this year?
A.Outdoor activities are limited due to heavy winds.
B.A series of special events happened in the neighborhood.
C.The weather is especially cold in winter in Massachusetts.
D.The neighbors' big tree almost dropped all its leaves within a day.

A.Anxious.
B.Sorrowful.
C.Comfortable.
D.Amazed.
(3)Why are Hal Borland's lines quoted in Paragraph 3?
A.To express the author's admiration for the naturalist.
B.To emphasize the importance of getting close to nature.
C.To express the author's feelings about the leaf-falling season.
D.To emphasize the beauty of the author's childhood memories.
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.The Sky Far Beyond
B.The Fall of Massachusetts
C.The Beauty of a Newly-bare Tree
D.The Memories of Peace and Beauty組卷:9引用:3難度:0.3 -
3. Official figures show that 101 people were killed in road accidents on the streets of London last year.The city wants to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries on the capital's roads to zero.It seems impossible.But it focuses more minds on an important question:What can help reduce accidents in a big city?Transport for London (TfL),the capital's road and rail authority,has some answers:safe speeds,safe vehicles and so on.
A safety standard for Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs),which harnesses blind area cameras and sensors (傳感器),is pioneering.Blind area cameras and sensors are widely placed where they are needed.The European Commission has followed it.TfL has also helpfully identified London's most dangerous places.Half of Britain's most dangerous roads run through the capital.Around three-quarters of accidents that cause deaths or serious injuries happen at crossing near the British Museum,which has been the site of the most deaths since 2012.Westminster is the most dangerous area for walkers and cyclists,so it introduced 20 mph speed limits on all its roads in 2021.
"Vision Zero" was launched in 2018.Deaths and serious injuries on London's roads have fallen — by 53% and 40% respectively in 2022.But movement is not one-way.Deaths were record breakingly low in 2020 and 2021.But in 2022 the deaths rose again. "We are moving in the right direction," says Will Norman,London's walking and cycling commissioner.
Lack of funds for TfL has put off improving the riskiest areas.Only a few parts of the1010 Avenue have bike paths with guardrails (護(hù)欄).Safety is the biggest problem to people taking up cycling or letting their children walk or cycle.But greener vehicles may be unsafe themselves.Electric scooters (滑板車) are the latest ones to confuse planners. "One of those doing 50 mph down the road is not good for anybody," said Mr Norman.
(1)What is the author's purpose in writing paragraph 1?
A.To make the article interesting.
B.To stress the importance of TfL.
C.To call on scientists to study the question.
D.To give some background information.
(2)What does the underlined word "harnesses" mean in paragraph 2?
A.Compares.
B.Removes.
C.Uses.
D.Replaces.
(3)What is the Will Norman's attitude to the "Vision Zero"?
A.Doubtful.
B.Supportive.
C.Puzzled.
D.Unclear.
(4)What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Bike lanes are not safe anymore for riders on roads.
B.Children should think twice when taking up cycling.
C.Safety has been a problem for some eco-friendly vehicles.
D.Electric scooters have become the biggest confusion for planners.組卷:4引用:6難度:0.2

9. The M1 highway was closed down in both directions due to flooding,leaving thousands of vehicles stuck on the spot.Several hundred had been stuck for at least 30 hours since the road was cut at about 7.30 am on Monday.
Unluckily,I was one of the people who were waiting for help.There are almost 100 vehicles trapped on the road about 800 meters long.And one benefit was that there was a short road tunnel(隧道) that had provided shelter from the pouring rain as well as some lighting after nightfall.So how people have felt depended on how well they stored food.I was totally in trouble because of lacking food.I heard someone knocking on my window while I was worrying about my situation.
A man,who was driving a truck full of raw (生的) chicken leaving for downtown,opened his truck's door and shared the chicken around by dinner time on Monday.This was a thriving community of shared resources and resourcefulness,where the truck driver dished out food that had been ordered for supermarkets.And others helped to cook the raw chicken by the tool which were found in their cars.
I took the chicken from the truck driver and,after expressing my thanks,I lost in thought:how do I cook this chicken?Just as I was looking around in confusion,a girl not far away waved to me,"Come over here,we have cooked meat.""No,thanks,"I replied casually.But I was so hungry that I couldn't help but walk over to her with the chicken.She took the chicken from my hand,cleaned it and put it on the grill (燒烤架).I was impressed by her masterful way.After a while,some meat was cooked and I took the meat she handed to me.
注意:
(1)續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
(2)請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
As I got the hot chicken,I was filled with gratitude.
I carefully wrote down the phone number of Catherine,the girl who had helped me so much during the wait.組卷:1引用:3難度:0.5
