Great painter Salvador Dali once said, “A true artist is not one who is inspired, but one who inspires others.” These words perfectly describe Umapathy, an art teacher from Puducherry, who plants the seeds of creativity in his students’ minds through arts and crafts.
Umapathy makes beautiful crafts out of biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials like bamboo, dried leaves, seeds, roots, branches, vegetable waste, and so on. This way, he integrates sustainability into his creations, leaving a continuing impact on his students.
While growing up, Umapathy was inspired by his father, a government school teacher and expert weaver (编织者). “He spent most of his evenings engaging in weaving. I would observe him and eventually developed an interest in the colours, designs and the art,” recalls Umapathy.
While working at the government school, it took Umapathy some time to excite the interest of the students. He experimented with different arts and crafts using a variety of materials. “That’s when a big realization struck me. Most of the students at my school weren’t able to afford the materials or equipment to create craftwork. I decided to choose to take natural materials, which are available for free,” he says.
This move made the students more interested in the craft than before. With his guidance, they were convinced that they could make wonders even out of waste materials. Now the school exhibits over 300 pieces of artwork, all created by the students over the years, on its walls. “I’m only giving wings to their imagination,” says Umapathy with a smile.
The craft has also aided several students from poor families to support their financial and educational needs. The students, with the help of Umapathy, have saved their earned income for their education. Several students have pursued their studies in fine arts with the income. One such student, Tamilselvan, completed his graduation in arts and has followed the path of his master to become an art teacher.
4. Which word best describes Umapathy’s craftwork?
A. Cheap. B. Traditional.
C. Environment-friendly. D. Fashionable.
5. What did Umapathy usually do when he was young?
A. Received art training. B. Watched his father weaving.
C. Collected natural waste. D. Learned weaving from his father.
6. Why does Umapathy choose natural materials for his students?
A. They can be found everywhere.
B. They are perfect for arts and crafts.
C. They can fire students’ imagination.
D. They are easily accessible at no cost.
7. What did Tamilselvan gain from Umapathy’s practice?
A. He made money to pursue his studies.
B. He got inspiration for his own exhibitions.
C. He achieved his dream to be an art teacher.
D. He received financial aid from an art school.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述Umathy带领学生们利用免费的天然材料制作工艺品，给他的学生留下了持续的影响。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Umapathy makes beautiful crafts out of biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials like bamboo, dried leaves, seeds, roots, branches, vegetable waste, and so on. This way, he integrates sustainability into his creations, leaving a continuing impact on his students. (Umathy用竹子、干树叶、种子、根、树枝、蔬菜废料等可生物降解的材料制作出美丽的工艺品。通过这种方式，他将可持续性融入了自己的创作中，给他的学生留下了持续的影响。)”可知，Umathy制作出的工艺品都是很环保的。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“He spent most of his evenings engaging in weaving. I would observe him (他晚上大部分时间都在编织。我会观察他的)”可知，Umathy小时候经常观看父亲编织。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Most of the students at my school weren’t able to afford the materials or equipment to create craftwork. I decided to choose to take natural materials, which are available for free (我学校的大多数学生都买不起制作工艺品的材料或设备。我决定选择免费的天然材料)”可知，Umathy选择天然材料给学生们用，因为它们是免费的。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The craft has also aided several students from poor families to support their financial and educational needs. The students, with the help of Umapathy, have saved their earned income for their education. Several students have pursued their studies in fine arts with the income. One such student, Tamilselvan, completed his graduation in arts and has followed the path of his master to become an art teacher. (该工艺还帮助了几名来自贫困家庭的学生，以满足他们的经济和教育需求。在Umathy的帮助下，学生们把挣来的收入存起来用于教育。几个学生带着收入继续学习美术。塔米尔塞尔万就是这样一位学生，他完成了艺术专业的毕业，并沿着硕士的道路成为了一名艺术老师。)”可知，塔米尔塞尔万在Umathy的帮助下，把挣来的收入存起来用于学习。故选A。
C
The Greek historian Herodotus is said to have made one of the earliest lists of Seven Wonders of the World. These were man-made structures, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. More recent times saw natural alternatives to these wonders of classical architecture proposed: waterfalls, mountains, canyons, reefs. Dramatic landscapes, features and wildlife, and the pleasure and excitement they offer to visitors, are basics of tourism.
As environmental consciousness has risen, attitudes to such sightseeing have changed. Yes, it is exciting to visit remote forests or spot rare species. But travelling to distant destinations is carbon-intensive (碳密集的) when flights or long road journeys are involved, and conservation can be made more difficult as well as assisted by sightseers. There is a balance to be struck, and some governments and businesses around the world try to increase the benefits while reducing the harm. Colombia, for example, recently introduced laws aimed at promoting sustainable tourism. Based on this, its economy got prosperous (繁荣的) as well as the tourism.
Most of us understand better than ever that there are costs as well as benefits associated with exploring. One of the commitments made by an environmental campaign launched last month, “The Jump”, is to “holiday local”, taking short flights once every 3 years and long flights very rarely. Fortunately, the UK’s 15 national parks, 86 areas of outstanding natural beauty, and countless other landscapes that are without formal status, but still beloved, mean that there is no shortage of special places for domestic nature tourists to visit, while a lot of European beauty spots are accessible by rail.
One recent survey found that Windsor Great Park and Kew have become Britain’s most popular attractions. Visitor numbers at wildlife trusts are high, with waiting lists for beaver-spotting. Some companies that formerly ran foreign trips have adapted to the pandemic by taking people to watch dolphins and other marine life off British coasts instead.
As we face an environmental emergency that grows ever more dangerous, it is essential to develop appreciation for nature that surrounds us. In a small way, holiday outings to watch dragonflies, kingfishers or seals, or be surrounded by trees that are coming into leaf, could help us to focus on what matters.
8. Why are the lists of Seven Wonders mentioned?
A. To bring natural wonders into focus.
B. To show changes in architectural styles.
C. To reveal the rising popularity of tourism.
D. To compare historic and modern structures.
9. What did Colombia recently do?
A. It made efforts to conserve rare species.
B. It banned sightseers from going to remote forests.
C. It introduced laws to increase the income of tourism.
D. It tried to make its tourism develop healthily and stably.
10. What is the author’s attitude to the goal of “The Jump”?
A. Relaxed. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Optimistic.
11. What can be the best title for this passage?
A. Nature tourism: “travel local”
B. Discovery of European beauty spots
C. International tourism: wait before setting out
D Sightseeing leads to environmental emergency
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍并提倡人们假期短途旅行或者就欣赏本地的大自然，可以起到保护环境的作用。

Dramatic landscapes, features and wildlife, and the pleasure and excitement they offer to visitors, are basics of tourism.(据说希腊历史学家希罗多德列出了世界七大奇迹中最早的一个。这些都是人造建筑，包括巴比伦空中花园。最近，人们提出了这些古典建筑奇观的自然替代方案：瀑布、山脉、峡谷、珊瑚礁。戏剧性的景观、特色和野生动物，以及它们给游客带来的快乐和兴奋，是旅游业的基础。)”可知，文中提到世界七大奇迹是为了引出自然奇迹。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“There is a balance to be struck, and some governments and businesses around the world try to increase the benefits while reducing the harm. Colombia, for example, recently introduced laws aimed at promoting sustainable tourism. Based on this, its economy got prosperous (繁荣的) as well as the tourism. (需要取得平衡，世界各地的一些政府和企业试图在减少危害的同时增加收益。例如，哥伦比亚最近出台了旨在促进可持续旅游业的法律。在此基础上，它的经济和旅游业都得到了繁荣。)”可知，哥伦比亚最近出台了法律，旨在促进旅游业的可持续发展，努力使旅游业健康稳定地发展。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Fortunately, the UK’s 15 national parks, 86 areas of outstanding natural beauty, and countless other landscapes that are without formal status, but still beloved, mean that there is no shortage of special places for domestic nature tourists to visit, while a lot of European beauty spots are accessible by rail. (幸运的是，英国有15个国家公园，86个自然美景出众的地区，以及无数其他没有正式身份但仍然备受喜爱的景观，这意味着国内自然游客不乏可以参观的特殊场所，而许多欧洲景点都可以通过铁路到达。)”可知，作者对The Jump持积极的态度。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Greek historian Herodotus is said to have made one of the earliest lists of Seven Wonders of the World. These were man-made structures, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

(当我们面临越来越危险的环境紧急情况时，培养对周围自然的欣赏是至关重要的。在某种程度上，假期外出观看蜻蜓、翠鸟或海豹，或者被正在落叶的树木包围，可以帮助我们专注于重要的事情。)”可知，这篇文章主要是介绍并提倡人们假期短途旅行或者就欣赏本地的大自然，可以起到保护环境的作用，A项“自然旅游：‘本地旅游’”符合文意。故选A。
D
Across the gardens of Britain, in cities and suburbs, people are building sheds (工棚). “We have never seen such an increase in orders,” says Paul Deary of the Garden Shed Company, whose family has been in the business for 35 years. “People have gone shed crazy.” The Timber Trade Federation reports that last October imports of softwood were 34% higher than a year earlier. With stocks (存货) running low, whatever wood is available is quickly sold out.
“A garden shed used to be mostly a place to store farm tools, or a place to discuss plants and drink tea when the rain fell outside,” said Michael Rand, an expert gardener. But the creative brainworker has long put it to more productive use. Roald Dahl and Dylan Thomas wrote in sheds. George Bernard Shaw had one in his garden that faced the sun.
The structures now being built are also often intended for work, although they are grander than the ones those pioneer shed-writers used. Green Retreats, which mostly builds garden offices but also garden gyms and the like, says that overall sales grew by 113% between 2021 and 2022. Larger, fancier structures with things like white walls are especially popular.
This has an important effect on cities. Urban scholars like Richard Florida and Edward Glaeser are busy trying to work out whether the rise in home-working that has occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic will continue when the virus begins to ebb. If it does, many service jobs in cities, from waiters to taxi drivers, will disappear. Public transport systems will struggle. The value of city-centre property will drop.
The shed boom makes that outcome more likely. A white-collar worker who has tried to work from the kitchen table for the past 9 months might be keen to return to the office. A worker who has a pretty garden shed with Wi-Fi will be less so. Joel Bird who builds personalized sheds, is certain that his clients imagine a long-term change in their working habits. “They don’t consider it to be temporary,” he says. “They’re spending too much money.”
12. Why did Britain import more softwood from abroad?
A. Softwood was cheaper this year.
B. Demands for sheds were on the rise.
C. Britons prefer softwood in making sheds.
D. Softwood suppliers were fewer than before.
13. What do Paragraphs 2-3 mainly talk about?
A. Famous shed-writers. B. Development of shed-offices.
C. Different functions of sheds. D. Improvement on shed-building.
14. What does the underlined word “ebb” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Spread. B. Continue. C. Strike. D. Decline.
15. What may the shed boom bring about?
A. Refusal of office jobs. B. Shifts in working habits.
C. Poor qualities of services. D. Development of public transport.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章主要介绍英国棚屋市场的繁荣并改变了人们的工作习惯。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Across the gardens of Britain, in cities and suburbs, people are building sheds (工棚). “We have never seen such an increase in orders,” says Paul Deary of the Garden Shed Company, whose family has been in the business for 35 years. “People have gone shed crazy.” The Timber Trade Federation reports that last October imports of softwood were 34% higher than a year earlier. (在英国的花园里，在城市和郊区，人们都在建造棚屋。花园棚屋公司的Paul Deary说：“我们从未见过订单如此增加。”他的家族已经做了35年的生意。木材贸易联合会报告称，去年10月软木进口量比去年同期增长34%)”可知，英国软木进口量增长是因为越来越多的人都在建造棚屋。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段““A garden shed used to be mostly a place to store farm tools, or a place to discuss plants and drink tea when the rain fell outside,” said Michael Rand, an expert gardener. But the creative brainworker has long put it to more productive use. Roald Dahl and Dylan Thomas wrote in sheds. George Bernard Shaw had one in his garden that faced the sun. (园艺专家迈克尔·兰德说：“花园棚屋过去主要是存放农具的地方，或者是在外面下雨时讨论植物和喝茶的地方。”。但这位富有创造力的脑力劳动者长期以来一直将其用于更高效的用途。罗尔德·达尔和迪伦·托马斯在棚屋里写作。萧伯纳的花园里有一个面朝太阳的。)”和第三段“The structures now being built are also often intended for work, although they are grander than the ones those pioneer shed-writers used. Green Retreats, which mostly builds garden offices but also garden gyms and the like, says that overall sales grew by 113% between 2021 and 2022. Larger, fancier structures with things like white walls are especially popular. (现在正在建造的建筑通常也用于工作，尽管它们比那些先锋作家使用的建筑更宏伟。Green Retreats主要建造花园办公室，也建造花园健身房等。该公司表示，2021年至2022年间，总销售额增长了113%。像白墙这样更大、更华丽的建筑尤其受欢迎)”可知，这两段主要介绍棚屋的作用。故选C。
14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“This has an important effect on cities. Urban scholars like Richard Florida and Edward Glaeser are busy trying to work out whether the rise in home-working that has occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic will continue when the virus begins to ebb. If it does, many service jobs in cities, from waiters to taxi drivers, will disappear. Public transport systems will struggle. The value of city-centre property will drop. (这对城市有着重要的影响。Richard Florida和Edward Glaeser等城市学者正忙于研究新冠肺炎大流行期间在家工作的增加是否会在病毒开始ebb时继续。如果真的这样，从服务员到出租车司机，城市里的许多服务性工作都将消失。公共交通系统将举步维艰。市中心房产的价值将会下降)”可知，城市里的许多服务性工作都将消失，公共交通系统将举步维艰，市中心房产的价值将会下降，应该是病毒消退后，人们仍然在家工作所导致的后果。所以ebb的意思应该是“消退”，和选项D意思一致。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The shed boom makes that outcome more likely. A white-collar worker who has tried to work from the kitchen table for the past 9 months might be keen to return to the office. A worker who has a pretty garden shed with Wi-Fi will be less so. Joel Bird who builds personalized sheds, is certain that his clients imagine a long-term change in their working habits. “They don’t consider it to be temporary,” he says. “They’re spending too much money.”(棚屋市场的繁荣使得这种结果更有可能出现。一个在过去9个月里一直尝试在厨房餐桌上工作的白领可能会渴望回到办公室。拥有一个带Wi-Fi的漂亮花园棚屋的工人就不那么容易了。乔尔·伯德（Joel Bird）建造了个性化的棚屋，他确信他的客户会想象他们的工作习惯会发生长期变化。“他们不认为这是暂时的，”他说。“他们花的钱太多了。”)”可知，棚屋市场的繁荣会改变人们的工作习惯。故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
At Bamfield, a coastal community in British Columbia, Canada, 84-year-old Louis Druehl is guiding the Kelp Express along the shore. For 51 years, the boat has taken him to Kelp Bay. There, ropes of seaweed are growing beneath the water’s surface. Seaweed is Druehl’s life. ____16____ Over the years, Druehl has seen interest in seaweed rise and fall. But as climate change affects the planet, the world is turning to seaweed as a possible way to solve that. “People have discovered seaweed,” he said. “They have discovered us.”
People think of forests as the best protection against climate change. ____17____ Unlike trees, seaweed doesn’t need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees and doesn’t require any land. It helps balance ocean ecosystems (生态系统). And it absorbs carbon from the environment.
____18____ Many worry about the environmental influence of eating meat. Can seaweed farms provide enough protein for the world? Carlos Duarte, a professor of marine ecology, thinks so. “When you look at how we are going to feed the world population by 2050 in a way that doesn’t harm the environment, there is only one pathway,” he says. “Seaweed farming.” ____19____ In British Columbia, there is a long line of seaweed farmers waiting to learn from Louis Druehl.
Seaweed might fight climate change. But it isn’t without its risks. If it isn’t harvested, it can rot and put carbon back into the air or water. Growing too much of it can also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. ____20____ Halley Froehlich, a professor at the University of California, says, “Seaweed can be a part of the solution to climate change, but it’s not a perfect solution on its own.”
A. But some researchers say seaweed is a better way.
B. That will be dangerous for underwater ecosystems.
C. Seaweed can also become a key global food source.
D. When the seaweed plants die, they will be burned for fuel.
E. In the past 10 years, global seaweed production has doubled.
F. He has studied, farmed, cooked it, and written a book about it.
G. Trees make a big difference to the improvement of the environment.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. C 19. E 20. B

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Many organ transplants (器官移植) come from those who are blood relatives or close friends. It’s rare for a person to make a living organ donation to a stranger. Not surprising when you consider the operative risks and other potential problems.
That’s what Paul Wagner thought until he read an article about matchingdonors.com, a website that connects people who need transplants with those willing to be donors (捐赠者), Paul grew up in a poor family and admits to making many mistakes in his youth, including using drugs. “But I always got another chance,” he said. Paul said help came when he needed it most, and because of that, he wanted to give someone else a chance.
That someone turned out to be former opera singer Gail Tomas, who was suffering from kidney (肾) failure and badly needed a new kidney. But her hopes for a donor were so slight because of her O+ blood type. Paul, also type O+, emailed Gail, offering to donate his kidney to her. He said, “It would be wrong of me not to help.” That attitude, however, was not shared by most surgeons, who refused to participate. The surgeon who agreed only did so after long interviews with Paul to be certain about his motivation. The transplant finally took place on National Donor Day.
Afraid that Gail and her family would feel tied to him merely out of appreciation, Paul made it clear to Gail that he didn’t want to get to know her. But Gail insisted on making friends with him and was trying to find an opportunity to break down the barriers to their friendship.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then Gail’s first birthday after the transplant was approaching and she got an idea.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Their friendship started after the birthday party.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Then Gail’s first birthday after the transplant was approaching and she got an idea. She called Paul and invited him to her birthday party. When he refused, she was very angry. “You’ve given me a second life. How can you refuse to come to my birthday party? It would be meaningless without you,” she said to Paul. Amazingly, Gail’s words did work! Paul knew she was talking to him from the bottom of her heart. So he accepted the invitation and they finally met at Gail’s birthday party.
Their friendship started after the birthday party. Now they meet every few weeks, sharing each other’s concerns, feelings and experiences. And they spare no effort to offer help whenever one of them is in trouble. “I found someone I didn’t know who was willing to give the priceless gift. How could I not be his friend?” said Gail. “I lost a kidney, but I’ve gained a true friend. It’s worth it,” said Paul, smiling at the memory. There’s no doubt that it’s great love and kindness that create the true friendship between the two strangers.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了Paul将自己的活体器官捐赠给患有肾衰竭的陌生人Gail。Paul害怕Gail和她的家人仅仅因为感激而和他联系在一起，所以他向Gail明确表示，他不想了解她。但Gail坚持和他做朋友，并试图找到一个机会来打破他们友谊的障碍。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“移植手术后盖尔的第一个生日快到了，她有了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写Gail邀请Paul来参加她的生日聚会，但被拒绝了。在跟她交流过后，Paul最终接受了邀请。
②由第二段首句内容“他们的友谊是在生日聚会之后开始的。”可知，第二段可描写Gail和Paul两个人在聚会之后经常见面，两个人建立起了深厚的友谊。
2.续写线索：邀请参加聚会——拒绝——生气——参加聚会——成为好朋友——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①拒绝：refuse/decline
②不遗余力：spare no effort to/make every endeavor to
③值得：be worth/deserve
情绪类
①生气：angry/annoyed
②惊讶地：amazingly/surprisingly/in amazement/in surprise

【点睛】【高分句型1】Now they meet every few weeks, sharing each other’s concerns, feelings and experiences. （运用了现在分词作状语）
