1.Travelling as a father and daughter is more than sightseeing-it's about seeing the world from each other's point of view.
Colorado Springs,Colorado
If you and your dad are the outdoorsy types,Colorado Springs is ideal for dusting off those hiking shoes and hitting some of the most beautiful part of the Front Range.Explore the iconic Garden of the Gods,where red sandstone is sharpened into striking towers.Head to the famous Pike's Peak to test your courage and take in some of the best views in Colorado.
After the adventure,visit a pub to celebrate your successful trip as a perfect complement to a long day outdoors.
Las Vegas,Nevada
Whatever you fancy on a vacation,Las Vegas has it,making it a perfect destination for fathers and daughters looking for a place that will keep them busy until they board their flight home.Just visit the big-name casinos(賭場)like the Venetian and Caesar's Palace,or pop into one of the many A-list shows for world-class entertainment options.
Museum-goers will be spoiled for choice,too-dive into the history of organized crime at the Mob Museum,or walk among historic signs at the Neon Museum.

With a rich culture,Austin is great for a barbecue-appreciating,eclectic-music-loving father-daughter duo(搭檔).The"Live Music Capital of the World"has more than 250 music venues featuring everything from country and rock to electronica(電子樂).If you have wide-ranging music tastes,make your way to the Red River Cultural District,where institutions invite cutting-edge indie,rock,and hip hop artists to the stage.

2.When I was 13,I climbed my first mountain-a fairly gentle 3,900-foot peak.I was overweight at the lime and out of breath when I reached the summit.But I loved challenging myself.Soon I'd climbed nearly 100 peaks.My parents were happy I'd finally found a hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen.She and I drove to tackle 11,240-foot Mount Hood.It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack.That day,we started at3 a.m.Al around 9 a.m.,we reached an ice step.It was about three or four feet tall and sloped at a 75-degree angle.I volunteered to go first.I placed my left foot on the ice step.
I gained a sense of the ice when I stuck my ax and crampons (鞋底釘) into it,and it felt good.Confident I was safe,I put my full weight on it.Suddenly,I heard a crack,and as the snowpack became thinner,a whole piece of ice broke off the step,right under my foot.
In an instant,I fell backward,bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game.I remember thinking,"This is it.You're done."I stuck out my arms and legs,grabbing at anything.That stopped my rolling down the mountain,but I was still sliding.After a few seconds,I came to a stop on a shallow slope.
I asked myself:Where are you?Mount Hood.What's the date?December 30.Good.My brain was functioning.Then I checked my body to see where I was hurt.For the most part,I was fine,except that I was suffering from a sharp pain in my left leg.Later I'd learn that I'd broken my femur (大腿骨) and that the bone was slicing into my skin and muscle.
At the bottom of Mount Hood,I was loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital.The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again,but I was back on the trails within six months.

3.During the last few years we have lived through a series of worrying global events,from the COVID pandemic to devastating wildfires.Instead of feeling informed after watching the news,many people feel anxious,upset and sick.A new study published in Journal of Health Communication investigated into this problem.
According to the study,stress,anxiety,and poor health follow people who have a constant urge to check the news,F(xiàn)or these individuals,a vicious(惡性的)cycle can develop in which,rather than tuning out,they become drawn further in,checking for updates around the clock to relieve their emotional stress.But it doesn't help,and the more they check the news,the more it begins to interfere(干擾)with other aspects of their lives.
Of the 1,100 people surveyed for the study,16.5 percent became so absorbed in the news that it dominated their thoughts,limited the time they spent with family and friends and made it difficult to focus on school or work,Those are the very things-purposeful engagement and social connection-that help us cope with stress and mental health challenges.
According to Bryan MeLaughlin,one of the authors,the findings show that people should develop a healthier relationship with the news."For example,previous research has shown that individuals who became concerned about the bad effects that their constant attention to COVID-19 was having on their mental health reported making the conscious decision to tune out.This comes at the expense of an individual's access to important information for their health and safety.This is why a healthy relationship with news consumption is an ideal situation,"he said.
In addition,the study also calls out the need for a wider discussion about how the news industry may be fueling the problem.Journalists often focus on selecting"newsworthy"stories that would grab news consumers' attention because of the economic pressures."However,for certain types of people,news stories not only grab their attention and draw them in,but also can be harmful to individuals' health,"McLaughlin said.
(1)What does the underlined phrase"this problem"in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A.That news addiction may bring negative effects.
B.That COVID-19 affects people's mental health.
C.That people are exposed to too much information.
D.That journalists focus on terrifying stories to impress readers.
(2)Who may be easier to be affected by the news?
A.People with difficulty in socializing.
B.People with a burning thirst for news.
C.People who have trouble focusing on school or work.
D.People who love to share their feelings on the Internet.
(3)What might Bryan McLaughlin agree with?
A.The press is regarded as a booming industry.
B.People should avoid being engaged in the news.
C.Journalists should focus on newsworthy stories.
D.People should find balance between staying informed and maintaining health.
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.Healthy News Consumption Is Crucial
B.News Addiction Links to Poor Well-being
C.How News Industry Fuels News Addiction
D.Highly Informed Readers Suffer From Anxiety組卷:18引用:4難度:0.5

9.閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
I looked up from my desk to see the teacher writing on the board: "Battle of the Books!" She smiled and said, "This time it's a teamwork.You're going to be in teams of two,and set a reading goal.Every team that meets their goal by the end of the month will get a prize!" The lunch bell sounded before she could explain any more rules.
As I gathered my things,Liya passed my desk and said, "Teammates?" Since Liya and I shared the same interest in graphic novel(漫畫小說),and we took Hindi language class together,we teamed up automatically.I was both relieved and excited to have my team.Then we got to the cafeteria and quickly threw out a bunch of ideas of what to do at our table.
I looked to our third friend Kash,with whom the three of us always do stuff together, "Kash,do you have ideas for us?" "Why would I give you guys ideas?" he said gloomily(陰沉地). "I'll save that for my team...whoever that is.Now I see how I rank in the friendship lineup." Kash replied in an angry tone.
I knew he was mad for a reason.If I were him,not only would I think that I ranked last in that group,but I'd also be panicking about what team I could join.But now,I was on the inside and Kash wasn't.I felt like the only way to fix this would be three people on a team.So,as the teacher walked by our table,I asked for her permission.What surprised me was that she had intended to draw names to assign random groups,but didn't get a chance to say it before lunch.
Awkward and frustrated,we were stuck in this dilemma.Having first teamed up without Kash didn't mean we didn't like him.I knew we—especially I—wouldn't be able to enjoy any prize if our friend felt bad about being left out.So,I decided to do something to make it up for him and convince Kash he was an equal friend.
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。
That night,I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked.
The next day,I handed my pages of apology to Kash.
