Passage 1
(2023·江西名校高三10月期中联考) Humans have lng knwn that being in nature is gd fr the mind and bdy. Frm indigenus(本土的) adlescents cmpleting the adult ceremny in the wild t mdern East Asian cultures taking “frest baths”， many have lked t nature as a place fr healing and persnal grwth. But the questin still remains. Hw can nature make it?
There is n dubt that being in nature reduces the physilgical symptms f stress in ur bdies. What this means is that we are less likely t be anxius and fearful in nature, and therefre we can be mre pen t ther peple and creative patterns f thught. Als, nature ften leads t awe, wnder and respect, all these emtins facilitating everything frm physical t mental health. There is als sme evidence that expsure t nature impacts the brain. Viewing natural beauty makes specific reward circuits in the brain assciated with dpamine release, a chemical that gives us a sense f purpse, jy and energy t pursue ur gals.
But, regrettably, peple seem t be spending less time utdrs and less time in nature than befre. It is als clear that, in the past 30 years, peple's levels f stress and sense f “busyness” have risen dramatically. These jint frces have led envirnmental writer Richard Luv t cin the term “NatureDeficit Disrder”—a frm f suffering that cmes frm a sense f discnnectin frm nature and its pwers.
Perhaps we shuld take nte and try a curse crrective. The 19thcentury philspher Ralph Wald Emersn nce wrte abut nature, “There I feel that nthing can befall me in life—n disgrace, n calamity.” The science speaks t Emersn's intuitin. It's time t realise that nature is mre than just a material resurce. It's als a pathway t human health and happiness.

Passage 3
(2023·江西名校高三10月期中联考) Nash equilibrium(纳什均衡) is named after Jhn Nash, an American mathematician. It is a kind f cncept, which attempts t determine mathematically and lgically the actins that participants f a game shuld take t secure the best utcmes fr themselves.
T find it in a game, ne wuld have t mdel ut each f the pssible scenaris t determine the results and then chse what the mst satisfactry strategy wuld be. In a twpersn game, this wuld take int cnsideratin the pssible strategies that bth players culd chse. If neither player changes their strategy knwing all f the infrmatin, a Nash equilibrium has ccurred.
Imagine a game between Tm and Sam. In this simple game, bth players can chse strategy A t receive $1, r strategy B t lse $1． Lgically, bth players chse strategy A and receive a payff f $1． If yu revealed Sam's strategy t Tm and vice versa(反之亦然), yu see that n player's chice is different frm the riginal ne. Knwing the ther player's mve means little and desn't change either player's behaviur. Outcme A represents the Nash equilibrium.
Nash equilibrium helps a player determine the best payff in a situatin based n nt nly their decisins but als the decisins f ther parties invlved. It can als be used in many aspects f life, frm ecnmics t scial behaviural sciences, frm business strategies t a huse sale and s n.
Unlike dminant strategy, Nash equilibrium desn't always lead t the mst satisfactry utcme. In mst cases, such as in war, whether that is a military war r a bidding war, an individual rarely knws the ppnent's strategy r what they want the utcme t be. It just means that an individual chses the best strategy based n the infrmatin they have. Nash equilibrium can nly ccur if a player chses t remain with their current strategy if they knw their ppnent's strategy. Furthermre, in multiple games played with the same ppnents, it des nt take int cnsideratin past behaviur, which ften predicts future behaviur.
5．Which kind f cncept des Nash equilibrium belng t?
A．Game thery.
B．Secrecy strategies.
C．Player infrmatin.
D．Participatin qualificatins.
6．Hw des the authr explain Nash equilibrium in Paragraph 3?
A．By quting sayings.
B．By drawing a parallel.
C．By summarising reasns.
D．By giving an illustratin.
7．What des Paragraph 4 mainly tell us abut Nash equilibrium?
A．Its elements.
B．Its drawbacks.
C．Its applicatins.
D．Its backgrunds.
8．What is the authr's attitude t Nash equilibrium?
A．Objective. B．Resistant.
C．Cnfused. D．Curius.
Passage 4
(2024·山东青岛质检)On 22 January 2023, a massive iceberg brke ff frm Antarctica's Brunt Ice Shelf. Scientists say the iceberg was expected t break ff and the event isn't cnnected t climate change. But the size f the iceberg is hard t imagine.
The iceberg, knwn as “A81”， is extremely large. It cvers an area f abut 600 square miles (1，550 square kilmetres).
Antarctica, the wrld's fifth largest cntinent, is cvered with a layer f ice and snw that's rughly 1．2 miles (1．9 kilmetres) thick. As snw falls, it piles up in the centre f Antarctica in a huge layer f ice. Over time, the weight f this ice and snw creates slwly mving rivers f ice called glaciers, which push ut twards the seA．
When the glaciers reach the sea, they slwly push ut beynd the edge f the land, frming huge “ice shelves”. These are massive sectins f ice that spread ut ver the sea, flating n the water belw. Antarctica's largest ice shelf, the Rss Ice Shelf, is abut the size f France.
Frm time t time, the edges f the ice shelves break ff. This is a natural prcess, called “calving”. Thugh calving events are a nrmal part f the ice shelf in Antarctica, ne expert describes huge calving events like this ne as “spectacular”．
Unlike an ice shelf, sea ice isn't attached t Antarctica's land. It's a layer f ice that flats n the surface f the seA． The sea ice is there yearrund. It grws larger in the cld winters, and smaller as it begins t melt in the summers.
It's nw summer in Antarctica, and scientists say the sea ice is disappearing “unusually” rapidly. Last year, with temperatures warmer than nrmal, Antarctica set a recrd fr the lwest amunt f sea ice ever recrded. Scientists say Antarctica's sea ice culd set a new recrd lw again this year.
5．Why have a lt f icebergs brken ff frm Antarctica in recent years?
A．Because f climate change.
B．Because f human activities.
C．Because f their extremely big size.
D．Because f the amunt f iceberg.
6．What des the underlined wrd “calving” prbably refer t in Paragraph 5?
A．Giving birth.
B．Breaking ff.
C．Cming tgether.
D．Cutting dwn.
7．What is the scientists' attitude twards the changes f sea ice in Antarctica?
A．Dubtful.
B．Objective.
C．Optimistic.
D．Wrried.
8．What is prbably the best title f this text?
A．The Massive Iceberg Breaks frm Antarctica
B．Scientists Say the Iceberg Was t Break Off
C．Antarctica's Sea Ice Culd Set a New Recrd
D．The Sea Ice Disappears “Unusually” Rapidly
Passage 5
(2023·河南部分名校核心模拟卷)What cuntry des English belng t? The answer seems bvius: Britain. But there are abut 180 millin r 40% f peple in the Eurpean Unin speaking English—much mre than the cmbined ppulatin f thse cre Englishspeaking cuntries, such as Britain, Canada and AustraliA．
T make things mre cmplex, the number f Englishspeakers brn utside the traditinal Englishspeaking cuntries grws every day and it is becming nt just a useful secnd language, but a native ne there. Already it is easy t find children in nrthern Eurpe wh speak as thugh they cme frm America because they have been watching Hllywd films and TV prgrammes, alng with music gaming and scial mediA．
Tday, many learners still aim fr an American r British standard. Textbks instruct Indian Englishspeakers t avid Indianisms such as “What is yur gd name？” fr “What is yur first name？”， r “I am wrking here fr years.” instead f “I have been wrking here fr years.” A guide t aviding Eurpeanisms has lng existed in Eurpean Unin institutins t keep Germanspeakers frm using “actual” t mean “current”， as it des in their language.
Given enugh time, new generatins f freign language speakers cntribute nt just wrds but their wn grammar t the language they learn. “I am wrking here fr years.” is a mistake tday, but it is nt hard t imagine it becming standard in the future in IndiA． If this disturbs yu, remember that this text is written in a language that was a mixture f French, Latin and thers until it became an unrecgnisably different tngue.
N language has ever reached mre speakers than English. It is hard t predict hw they will change it, but it is easy t rule ut the pssibility that they will nt change it at all. But yu can take cmfrt in the fact that such changes usually happen t slwly t affect cmprehensin in a single lifetime.
5．What phenmenn is described in the first tw paragraphs?
A．The influence f the Englishspeaking cuntries.
B．The widespread use f English utside Britain.
C．The ppularity f Hllywd films and TV prgrammes.

6．What is the authr's predictin abut the Indianisms?
A．They will be fficially replaced by standard English.
B．They will be accepted as standards by ther cuntries.
C．They will be cnsidered grammatically crrect in IndiA．
D．They will becme a different language in the near future.
7．What des the authr mst likely want t tell us in the last paragraph?
A．It is unavidable fr English t change ver time.
B．English has been influenced by different languages.
C．English might be unrecgnisable in ne generatin.
D．It is imprtant t keep English frm freign influences.
8．What is the authr's purpse in writing the text?
A．T argue against the necessity f standard English.
B．T shw his pinin n the changes f English.
C．T explain the causes behind language changes.
D．T call fr mre strict standards fr English teaching.
Passage 6
(2023·湖北部分重点中学高三10月大联考)Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements: spiritual wellbeing (meaning and purpse), physical wellbeing (nutritin, exercise), intellectual wellbeing (curisity, deep learning), relatinal wellbeing (kindness and genersity), and emtinal wellbeing (cultivating psitive emtins). As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE, happiness is abut much mre than experiencing pleasure.
As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. Even peple wh are tirelessly wrking fr an imprtant cause, fr example, t get rid f wrld hunger, are ding it because they find their wrk meaningful. Meaning is an element f happiness.
One barrier t happiness has t d with the expectatin that happiness is an unbrken chain f psitive emtins. This expectatin, hwever, prevents peple frm experiencing happiness because painful emtins dn't g away but grw strnger when we reject them.
The secnd barrier has t d with equating happiness with success. It's a cmmnly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain gals, like mney r fame. Peple tend t think if they finally find success, they will autmatically becme happy.
The third barrier has t d with the way peple pursue happiness. We want t be happy fr many reasns. After all, we are cnstantly tld that happiness is gd fr ur health, relatinships, and wrk utcmes. Yet, if I wake up in the mrning and decide t pursue happiness straight, I will becme less happy.
But hw? Indirectly. As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu'll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu'll enjy the clurs f a rainbw. Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur wellbeing. Starting a meditatin practice, exercising, perfrming acts f kindness, learning smething new, r expressing gratitude fr what we have are all indirect ways f pursuing happiness.
5．What des the underlined wrd “aggregate” prbably mean in the first paragraph?
A．Cmbinatin. B．Cnclusin.
C．Accumulatin. D．Assciatin.
6．What's the authr's attitude twards hw we spend ur daily lives?
A．Favurable.
B．Suspicius.
C．Objective.
D．Indifferent.
7．What can we knw frm the text?
A．Being a success leads ne t happiness.
B．Refusing negative feelings helps us btain happiness.
C．Ging after happiness directly makes ne feel happy.
D．Pursuing ne aspect f SPIRE can bst ur wellbeing.
8．Why is the sun mentined in the last paragraph?
A．T make a cntrast.
B．T make an analgy.
C．T cnclude the argumentatin.
D．T answer the previus questin.

Passage 7
(2023·广东高三10月联考)Brynn Schulte nearly died tw times when she was a baby. At ne pint she needed emergency surgery fr bleeding in her brain. N ne knew what was wrng. Then, a test that lked at her full genetic details fund a rare bleeding disrder. Catching the disrder early saved her life. “Yu have this hpeless feeling when yu dn't really knw what's ging n，” said her father, Mike Schulte. He nted that the test made a difference in finding the cause and “getting her the right care that she needed almst immediately”．
Brynn, nw 4, gt the genetic testing as part f a clinical trial, the results f which were published recently in The Jurnal f the American Medical Assciatin. Testing all f the details f a persn's genes is called “whle genme” testing. Whle genme tests are much better than narrwly targeted tests when it cmes t finding genetic differences, called abnrmalities, which can cause disease. The study fund 49 percent f these abnrmalities, cmpared t 27 percent with mre cmmnly used tests targeting nly sme genetic diseases.
Whle genme tests culd slve the prblem f ding several narrwly targeted tests n babies, which still might nt find the disrder. Experts warn there are sme prblems because labs vary in hw they understand results. Als, whle genme tests are mre expensive and less likely t be cvered by insurance.
But researchers hpe that whle genme tests will at sme pint be used fr millins f hspitalised babies with rare and difficult cnditins. The US Natinal Human Genme Research Institute has fund that arund 350 millin peple arund the wrld live with rare disrders. And it fund that abut 80 percent f the mre than 7，000 cnditins are genetic.

Passage 8
[2023·河南豫北名校联考(二)]While sme critics claim that histry curricula(课程) teach unnecessary cntent, thers argue that these curricula need t be mre cmprehensive. Despite nging debates abut cntent, ne universal truth remains: strng histry curricula are necessary fr develping the prductive citizens f tmrrw.
The greatest academic value that histry curricula prvide is nt the recall f imprtant dates and names. Rather, understanding the histrical enquiry prcess is the mst imprtant cmpnent. This prcess teaches students hw t becme critical thinkers and understand the dynamic nature f the telling f histry.
Thrugh strng histry curricula, students are shwn bth a variety f primary and secndary surces and are taught t critique them. This is where the histrical enquiry prcess begins. Students nt nly begin t analyse and ask questins abut the cntent, but they als learn abut the authr's credibility and ptential bias(偏见). Students are then able t cntextualise the infrmatin they learn and can think mre critically abut histrical cntext and thse wh tell it.
With this framewrk, students can then understand the causal relatinship between human nature, values, philsphy, actins, and their cnsequences. It teaches students t recgnise recurrent themes and lessns that are necessary t understand mdern sciety. Mst imprtantly, it teaches students t develp a healthy skepticism(怀疑论) when presented with infrmatin tday because ur actins are histry in the making.
Frty years ag, renwned schlar James Fitzgerald argued that n educatin is cmplete withut the teaching f histrical enquiry. He believed that the nly way t mve frward in life is t understand what's behind us.
Tday, this principle still hlds true. Students take bth the factual knwledge and the histrical enquiry skills they learn in the classrm and apply them t real wrld circumstances. Thrughut their lives, students wh are taught with strng histry curricula will take the lessns they learn frm ur predecessrs and becme invlved, active, prductive citizens wh want t create a histry that tmrrw's students will be prud t learn abut.
1．What is the biggest academic significance f histry learning?
A．Passing dwn Chinese culture.
B．Grasping histrical enquiry skills.
C．Making peple mre knwledgeable.
D．Enriching peple's everyday life.
2．What des the underlined wrd “critique” in Paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A．Prtect.
B．Cmbine.
C．Cmment.
D．Remember.
3．Why is James Fitzgerald mentined in the text?
A．T stress the imprtance f histry.
B．T pint ut the essence f educatin.
C．T indicate famus peple learn frm histry.
D．T shw histry cntributes t peple's achievements.

Passage 9
（2024·北京朝阳·二模）When I was nine, my best friend nearly chked t death n a gbstpper, a type f hard candy. After several attempts, she cughed up the candy. I haven’t had a gbstpper since and I have carried with me a fear f seeing that scene again. Sadly, as I discvered this week, lightning can strike twice.
I was getting ff a tube train in Lndn when I nticed a wman cughing. I slwed dwn, watching her carefully. I had learned that cughing is rarely a sign that smething is terribly wrng. Suddenly, the wman stpped cughing, her eyes widened and she bent ver.
When I went ver t ask if she was OK, she lked up at me, panicked, and pinted t her back. I started hitting her back and screaming fr help. Despite having watched a few vides, I was terrified that I wuldn’t be able t crrectly perfrm the Heimlich, a first-aid methd, and that I wuld have t walk away with guilt fr her death. But it was just the tw f us, alne at an undergrund statin; if I didn’t try t help, n ne wuld. Thankfully, much like with my friend, after a few sharp hits, whatever had been stuck in her thrat came lse. She thanked me, almst embarrassed, and walked up t the lift. I fllwed behind her, shaking, with tears in my eyes.
By the time we reached the lift, we had bth calmed dwn. She tk my hands and thanked me again, befre disappearing. She might have been fine withut my hurried hits n her back — I may nt have actually saved her life — but at least she knew that smene, a stranger whm she wuld never see again, cared.
This experience als taught me abut the bystander effect, where peple assume thers assumed t be available during an emergency, direct help frm thers is far less likely t will help, leading t inactin. I get it: the fear f making things wrse, especially if yu have n medical training, is real. Research suggests that when a “medically cmpetent” persn is assumed t be available during an emergency, direct help frm thers is far less likely t ccur. Smetimes, thugh, regardless f wh else culd be nearby, it may be useful t get invlved. S it was with the cughing wman n the tube.
17．Hw did the friend’s chking incident affect the authr?
A．She lived with a sense f guilt.
B．She realized the imprtance f first aid.
C．She develped a fear f witnessing similar events.
D．She deepened her understanding f the bystander effect.
18．What did the authr d t help the wman n the tube?
A．She relieved the wman’s cughing.
B．She walked the wman up t the lift.
C．She fund a “medically cmpetent” persn fr her.
D．She perfrmed first aid by hitting the wman’s back.
19．Which situatin can be described as the bystander effect?
A．Yu vlunteered t help an ld man carrying a heavy bag.
B．Yu asked yur brther wh is a dctr t save a dying wman.
C．Yu avided invlvement when seeing an injured lady n the rad.
D．Yu walked away after the rescue men asked yu t leave the scene.
20．What can we learn frm this passage?
A．A gd tun deserves anther.
B．Every clud has a silver lining.
C．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D．Actin speaks luder than inactin.

(2024·浙江1月卷)On September 7, 1991, the cstliest hailstrm(雹暴) in Canadian histry hit Calgary's suthern suburbs. As a result, since 1996 a grup f insurance cmpanies have spent abut $2 millin per year n the Alberta Hail Suppressin Prject. Airplanes seed threatening strm cells with a chemical t make small ice crystals fall as rain befre they can grw int dangerus hailstnes. But farmers in eastcentral Alberta—dwnwind f the hail prject flights—wrry that precius misture(水分) is being stlen frm their thirsty land by the clud seeding.
Nrman Stienwand, wh farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings n this issue fr years. “Basically, the prvincial gvernment is letting the insurance cmpanies prtect the CalgaryEdmntn urban area frm hail，” Mr. Stienwand says, “but they're increasing drught risk as far east as Saskatchewan.”
The Alberta hail prject is managed by Terry Krauss, a clud physicist wh wrks fr Weather Mdificatin Inc. f Farg, Nrth DaktA． “We affect nly a very small percentage f the ttal misture in the air, s we cannt be causing drught.” Dr. Krauss says. “In fact, we may be helping increase the misture dwnwind by creating wetter grund.”
One dubter abut the safety f clud seeding is Chuck Dswell, a research scientist wh just retired frm the University f OklahmA． “In 1999, I persnally saw significant trnades(龙卷风) frm frm a seeded strm cell in Kansas，” Dr. Dswell says. “Des clud seeding create killer strms r reduce misture dwnwind? N ne really knws, f curse, but the seeding ges n.”
Given the degree f dubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it wuld be wise t stp clud seeding.” In practice, dubt has had the ppsite effect. Due t the lack f scientific prf cncerning their impacts, n ne has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cludseeding cmpanies. Hence, private climate engineering can prceed in relative legal safety.
