第一节(共 15 小题,每小题 2.5 分,满分 37.5 分)
This has been a year full f natural disasters, like hurricanes, wildfires and flds. Behind many f them, thugh, is an unflding event that shws n sign f stpping: climate change. Here we meet sme students wh have been using science t help peple deal with the effects f the changing climate. Their research places them amng 30 finalists at the 10th Bradcm MASTERS, a research prgram pen t middle-schl investigatrs.
Ryan Hnary, a 12-year-ld student in Califrnia, has persnal experience with wildfires. One day, he was with his father at a tennis turnament when he saw wildfires raging acrss his hme state n TV. “I called my mm and asked if she was kay.” Ryan recalls. Once he knew that she was, he asked his dad why wildfires gt ut f cntrl s ften. “We’re planning t send peple t Mars but we can’t detect wildfires,” Ryan says.
That’s when Ryan decided t create a way t detect wildfires early — befre they get ut f cntrl. He linked tgether a series f mini cmputers that had sensrs t detect smke. When smke was detected, data was transferred wirelessly t anther cmputer, which served as a mini meterlgical(气象的) statin.
Ryan brught his entire system t a park and tested it by hlding the flame frm a lighter in frnt f each sensr. When they sensed a fire, they infrmed the detectr. It then alerted an app that Ryan built fr his phne. While creating that app, Ryan talked with Mhammed Kachuee, a graduate student at the University f Califrnia. He helped Ryan use machine learning t train his app with data frm 2018 Camp Fire, the mst destructive fire in Califrnia histry. The app tk lessns frm hw this fire had traveled ver time. Using thse data, the app “learned” t tell hw flames at future events might spread.
Smeday, Ryan hpes his sensrs might be used thrughut his state. “Five f the wrst fires in Califrnia just happened in the last three mnths,” he ntes.
21.What is the functin f the app Ryan built fr his phne?
A.T transfer data abut campfires.B.T detect smke frm wildfires.
C.T predict hw a fire might spread.D.T shw hw we can prevent a fire.
22.Which f the fllwing best describes Ryan?
A.Caring and creative.B.Brave and ptimistic.
C.Ambitius and demanding.D.Hardwrking and intelligent.
23.What is the text mainly abut?
A.The effects f changing climate.
B.A by’s experience with wildfires.
C.A research prgram pen t students.
D.A student’s scientific research n wildfires.

The pprtunity arse ne mrning when Mr. Oven was called t the ffice fr a certain reasn. While Mr. Oven left, my cmpany Billy and I grabbed Mr. Oven’s lunch bag frm under his desk. I pened his sandwich and placed a bug in between the tw slices f bread. We put it back and clsed it. T keep it in memry, Billy tk phts f the whle prcess. We laughed fr weeks ver this.
Well, it all went suth during Thanksgiving break. Billy’s Mther fund the pictures in his rm, and demanded that he shuld tell her where these pictures were frm. Billy tld his mther the whle stry, and Mr. Oven was infrmed. Nt nly was I punished frm schl fr tw weeks, but als I was kicked ff the ftball and basketball team. Befre I culd return t schl, I had t turn in a 1000-wrd essay n what I did and why I did that. I really felt embarrassing every time I saw Mr. Oven in the hallway fr the rest f the schl year. I felt a little regret that Mr. Oven left ur schl the next year.

Peple wh seek cmfrt by puring their hearts ut in Curtney’s ffice dn’t get rewarded with an Xanax r Przac prescriptin (处方). Instead, they walk away with a reading list f sme fictins.
Such fictins as T Kill a Mckingbird and The Clr Purple teach yu cmplicated tpics like racism, pverty, bullying and ther issues. They culd als help yu knw yur wn heart and thers’. Keith Oatley, a psychlgy prfessr at Trnt University, recmmends nvels that help us understand the characters frm the inside rather than plt-driven nvels. We can learn frm a literary masterpiece, such as Virginia Wlf’s Mrs. Dallway, r frm ppular fictins such as Harry Ptter. Spending quality time with these characters as yu relax n the beach r sit prpped up n bed pillws may enhance yur EQ (emtinal intelligence).
Lab tests seem t shw this. Brain scans f peple wh have been reading fictins shw the area that crrespnds with emtin lights up. Even if yu are nt a keen reader, there’s still hpe. Past studies have shwn serial TV prgrams that are character driven such as The West Wing r The Gd Wife als help yu better understand what we human beings are up t. Other studies have shwn watching character-driven sitcms can lessen a viewer’s prejudice.
Yu can be as witty as Sherlck, but t get alng well in this life, yu really d need t understand peple emtinally. And yu can’t be as emtinally unavailable as Mr. Darcy thrughut much f Pride and Prejudice. Yu have t learn the lessn Jane Austen is trying t teach with that bk. Kieth said, “T lve peple, yu really have t knw them.” Peple say yu nly get ne life, but I say read fictins and yu can live many lives in ne.
28.Which statement is true accrding t the passage?
A.Reading nvels cures diseases.
B.Plt-driven nvels are nt beneficial.
C.Wlf stands ut as a nvelist.
D.Brain scans influence peple’s EQ.
29.Hw is the third paragraph mainly develped?
A.By listing numbers and data.
B.By fllwing time rder.
C.By prviding sme evidence.
D.By using gd cmparisns.
30.What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A.Sherlck gets alng well in life.
B.Darcy is nt very emtinally intelligent.
C.Keith lves reading Austen’s nvels.
D.Reading fictins can lengthen ur life.
31.What is the best title fr the text?
A.The Cllapse f Traditinal PrescriptinB.Ways t bst EQ
C.Suggestins n Chsing Right NvelsD.Reading Fictins Benefits EQ
Researchers have develped a wearable device (设备). It is stretchy (有弹性的) enugh that yu can wear it like a ring, a bracelet r any ther accessry that tuches yur skin. It als changes the bdy’s temperature int electricity, abut 1 vlt f energy fr every square centimeter f skin space — less vltage per area than what mst existing batteries prvide but still enugh t pwer electrnics like watches r fitness trackers. It can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable, making it a cleaner alternative (替代品) t traditinal electrnics. “In the future, we want t be able t pwer yur wearable electrnics withut having t include a battery,” said Jianliang Xia, senir authr f the new paper and an assciate prfessr in the Paul M. Rady Department f Mechanical Engineering at CU Bulder.
The innvatin (创新) begins with a base made ut f a stretchy material called plyamine. The scientists then stick a series f thin heating chips int that base, cnnecting them all with liquid metal wires. The final prduct lks like a Crss between a plastic watch and a minicmputer mtherbard r maybe a diamnd ring.
Just pretend that yu’re ut fr a jg. As yu exercise, yur bdy heats up, and that heat will radiate ut t the cl air arund yu. The device catches that flw f energy instead f letting it g t waste. “The thermelectric generatrs are in clse cntact with the human bdy, and they can use the heat that wuld nrmally be dissipated (消散) int the envirnment,” said Jianliang Xia. A persn taking a quick walk culd use a device the size f a typical sprts wristband t prduce abut 5 vlts f electricity, which is mre than what many watch batteries can hld.
The new devices are as stretchy as bilgical tissue. If yur device tears, fr example, yu can put tgether the brken ends, and they’ll seal back up in just a few minutes.
Researchers are trying t make their devices as cheap and reliable as pssible, while als having as clse t zer effect n the envirnment as pssible. While there are still prblems t wrk ut in the design, they think that the devices culd appear n the market in a few years.
32.Which f the fllwing statements is false abut the device?
A.It can repair itself.B.It can be recycled.
C.It can update itself.D.It can transfrm energy.
33.Hw can a wearer make the device prduce electricity?
A.By shaking it fast.B.By leaving it in the cl air.
C.By cnnecting it with watch batteries.D.By giving ut heat.
34.What d the researchers think abut the devices?
A.They will have a bright future.
B.They will be expensive.
C.They can nt be damaged by frce.
D.They are cmpletely envirnment-friendly.
35.What is the best title fr the text?
A.An Innvatin in wearable Devices
B.A Great Exercise Cmpanin
C.A New Functin f Traditinal Electrnics
D.A Bilgical Battery in the Human Bdy

As we dive int the New Year with fresh reslutins, a big questin is: Hw lng are we ging t stick with them? 36 But there is a strategy knwn as SMART can help bth in setting gals and sticking with them.
Specific. In daily life, we’re driven by ur habits, which cme easily. We can drive, listen t the radi and chew gum at the same time. 37 We need t get rid f distractins and stay fcused. Mastering a new skill is slw ging, s it’s best t be clear n ur aim.
Measurable. When it cmes t gals, there’s ften a divide between intentin and actin. One way t bridge this gap is t track what we’ve achieved each day. 38 S, if yu’re learning t play the pian, lg yur practice. If yur aim is t eat better, jurnal yur meals.
Achievable. 39 It’s a reality check n hw much time and resurces yu have t devte t it. And, it smetimes begs a bigger questin: Why shuld I cmmit t this gal?
Relevant. Gals and values shuld be cnnected. We may spend years living ut ther peple’s dreams fr us. If yu’re extrinsically (外在地) mtivated, yu may pwer thrugh. But yu may nt be happy with the utcme, even if yu’re very successful. 40
Time-bund. It’s imprtant t set gals that have clear time frames. Map ut an actin plan, and thrughut the year yu can refer back t the plan.
Set cncrete gals and plan a pain frward. When yu’re filling yur days with tasks and activities in line with yur gals, it’s time well spent.
A.But wrking tward a new gal can require a lt f brain pwer.
B.We knw it matters t eat healthier, but it is hard t fllw thrugh.
C.Break yur gal dwn int smaller pieces and think whether it’s dable.
D.Peple wh regularly mnitr their prgress are mre likely t succeed.
E.If yu pick a gal yu really care abut, yu’ll get it dne and feel better.
F.We ften start with determinatin and quickly find ur passin decreasing.
G.T keep yu n track, write dwn yur gals and share them with yur teachers.
