Passage 2(2021·宁夏银川市·银川一中高三月考)
As children, many f us dreamed f being treasure hunters when we grew up. Few f us grw up t d this wrk, and thse wh d are ften prfessinal archelgists (考古学家). And then there’s Lara Maiklem, an editr, wh has taken up the hbby f mudlarking, which is a kind f treasure finding, dne alng the banks f rivers.
Maiklem’s idea f “treasure” is self-defined. She says she was blessed with a mther wh really taught her t lk, and t take pleasure in the small things arund her. S fr her, treasure is anything extrardinary. “Finding dry snakeskin in the lng grass, r brken china in the garden bed is like finding treasure t me,” she says.
Abut 20 years ag, Maiklem mved t Lndn, but having grwn up n a farm, she missed the peace f the cuntryside.

Maiklem says after she’s phtgraphed and researched what she finds, she ften takes bjects back t the freshre f the river. “What I d keep is limited t things I dn’t already have, r better examples f things I already have,” she says.
In tday’s busy, stressful wrld, arguably the best thing treasure mudlarkers take hme is the relaxatin and peace f mind fund in the wrk f mudlarking. “Yu’ re ding a search, yet nt really ding anything s yu can let yur brain wander. I mudlark fr 5-6 hurs, which sunds like a lng time, but the time flies. By the time I leave the freshre the river has taken away my prblems, and that’s mre valuable than treasure,” says Maiklem.

Passage 3(2021·江苏高三一模)
An afternn nap(午睡)is ne f the jys f life, althugh t much napping culd signal all is nt well. In sme cultures, peple will have a daily nap — this is fine. The warning cmes when peple start sleeping during the daytime, when they did nt befre. There is certainly a gd reasn t believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker f an underlying cnditin.
Fr mst peple, napping during the day is mainly a sign that yu are nt getting enugh sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If yu feel sleepy during the day, yu shuld think abut taking a nap. That is what the bdy needs — it desn't need t be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling t ntice is "sleepiness", he says, nt "tiredness", which culd be mre psychlgical and linked t stress.
S hw d yu nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is hw lng yur nap lasts. Chse either a 20-r 90-minute nap. "When yu fall asleep, yu'll quickly g thrugh the lighter stages f sleep int yur first perid f deep sleep. Yu dn't want t wake up in deep sleep because that's when yu wake and feel wrse than yu did befre. "Napping fr 20 minutes means yu will wake up befre yu g int deep sleep; napping fr 90 minutes means yu'll cmplete a sleep cycle.
Once yu factr in the time it takes t fall asleep — sme peple are better at napping than thers but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — yu can set an alarm, allwing a 30- t 40-minute perid fr a shrt nap, and up t tw hurs fr a lnger ne.
A gd time t nap is during the bdy's natural dip in the afternn, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "Yu dn't really want t be napping much past that because then yu are ging t be eating int yur night-time sleep," Stanley says. The pint, he stresses, is t get gd night-time sleep, which wuld ensure yu prbably dn't need t nap at all.

Passage 4(2021·吉林延边朝鲜族自治州·高三一模)
Music is the ne incrpreal (无形的) entrance int the higher wrld f knwledge which cmprehends mankind but which mankind cannt cmprehend mankind but which mankind cannt cmprehend,” said famus German pianist and cmpser Ludwig van Beethven. This year marks the 251th anniversary f Beethven's birth n Dec 17,1770 As ne f the fathers f classical music, Beethven was revlutinary, breaking the rules and stretching musical frms t unleash (释放) emtin.
Althugh sme may claim that classical is a dying art nly fr the elites (精英人士),it is actually alive and well in the mdern era. It's nt uncmmn fr tday's musicians t have grwn up playing classical instruments such as the vilin r pian. Even thse wh dn't play r listen t classical music are likely t have been intrduced t it thrugh mvies and even vide games.
Many r the mst recgnizable names in the music industry have drawn inspiratin frm classical music. UK legendary rck band The Beatles is ne f them. Jhn Lemn, while lying n his cuch listening t his wife play Beethven's Mnlight Snata n the pian, asked her t play it backward and was immediately inspired t write the sng Because. The sng itself is similar t Mnlight Snata with simple, straightfrward lyrics.
This is just ne example. Cuntless musicians have been influenced by Beethven,and classical music as a whle. Recrd prducer Gerge Marin nce said: “They always had enrmus cnfidence that the wrld was theirs fr the taking.” This qute seems t sum up nt nly the mentality f mre mdem era musicians,but that f thse classical artists wh frmed the building blcks f music tday. They were making a bld,grandise (浮夸的) and very innvative statement, nt hlding anything back.
Whether yu're a music schlar r a passive listener, yu can't deny that classical musicians' influence remains strng centuries after the artists have passed. Musicians like Beethven cntinue illustrate their impact n the unifying frce that is music.
13.What is the main idea f the secnd paragraph?
A.Classical music is nt a dying art. B.Classical music becmes less ppular.
C.Tday's musicians still play classical music. D.The classical music audience grws sharply.
14.The authr mentins The Beatles in rder t _______.
A.intrduce the sng Because B.express his lve fr Jhn Lennn
C.shw the charm f Mnlight Snata D.prve the great influence f classical music
15.What des “that” in Paragraph 4 refer t?
A.The quteB.The mentalityC.The cnfidenceD.The mdern era
16.What can we infer abut the writer?
A.He is an elite. B.He is a musician. C.He hates mdem music. D.He thinks highly f classical music.
Passage 5(2021·云南昆明市·昆明一中高三月考)
Mst f the effrts aimed at reducing climate change centering n reducing the use f fssil fuels. But a new study warns that pllutin caused by the wrld’s fd prductin system is als a majr driver f rising temperatures n the planet. The study fund that if the wrld fd system stays n its current grwth path, it will prduce nearly 1.4 trillin tns f greenhuse gases ver the next 80 years. That pllutin is expected t cme frm chemical fertilizers used in agriculture, mismanaged sil, fd waste and methane (甲烷) gas released frm cws and ther animals.
Researchers frm the University f Minnesta and the University f Oxfrd in Britain led the study, which recently appeared in the publicatin Science. The researchers predict that even if fssil fuel emissins (排放) were halted nw, emissins frm the wrld fd system wuld make it impssible t reach current internatinal climate change targets. They say that emissins frm fd prductin alne culd push wrld temperatures past 1.5 degrees Celsius by the middle f this century and abve 2 degrees Celsius by the end f the century.
A main gal f the 2015 United Natins Paris Agreement n climate change is t keep rises in the Earth’s temperature during this century t between 1.5 t 2 degrees Celsius. The U. N. has said that in rder t stay belw the 1.5 Celsius level, emissins must fall at least 7.6 percent each year thrugh 2030.
The new study calls fr immediate imprvements in farming practices, as well as changes in what we eat and hw much fd we waste t help reach the Paris Agreement gals.
17.Which is the pllutin f fd prductin system?

Passage 6(2021·湖南永州市·高三二模)
A calrie deficit is a state in which yu burn mre calries than yu cnsume. As ne f the mst ppular appraches f lsing weight, hw des it wrk? Fr example, if yu burn 2,500 calries per day but nly eat 2,000,yu have created a deficit f 500 calries per day. There is mathematical certainty. But, this by n means tells the whle stry abut hw calries deficit affects ur lives.
Befre wndering what a calrie deficit is, it’s prbably best t learn what a calrie is. A calrie is a unit that we use t track ur bdy’s energy expenditure (消耗) and strage. In rder t just stay alive, human beings (and animals) burn calries. This means, even befre we perfrm any activity, ur bdies are already using energy (measured in calries) t keep us alive. Arund 70% f the calries we cnsume are spent n just keeping ur vital rgans running. Thus, if a persn cnsumes calries far mre less than needed t lk thin,it may have negative effects n the bdy.
When peple pick up a calrie deficit, they ften merely nte that the calrie math is irrefutable (无可辩驳的). The questin here is that nt all calries are the same. If yu eat a few bags f ptat chip wrth f calries t supprt the calrie intake needed t maintain r cut dwn n yur weight, it will wrk. But, this desn’t have the same effect n yur bdy and verall health as a balanced nutritinal meal cntaining the same amunt f calries.
It seems like a simple unit f energy has becme an bject f ur sciety’s bsessin. It needn't be that way. Remember, calrie deficits are just a tl, which serves a purpse in lsing sme weight and keeping track f yur calrie intake seems simple enugh.
21.What d we knw abut the calrie deficit?
A.It helps peple lse weight. B.It is a way f ding exercises.
C.It affects peple's lives psitively. D.It means the calries peple cnsume.
22.Which f the fllwing statements can be learned in Paragraph 2?
A.A calrie is a unit t stre daily energy. B.Peple need t burn calries t be alive.
C.Calrie intake is t keep ur rgans perating. D.Living animals nly burn calries after activities.
23.What is suggested fr peple t lse weight healthily?
A.Fcusing n the calrie math when eating.
B.Fcusing n different calries when eating.
C.Having bags f ptat chips cntaining enugh calries.
D.Having balanced nutritinal diets cntaining prper calries.
24.What is the text mainly abut?
A.Influences f calrie deficits.B.Appraches t lse weight.
C.Distinctins between calries.D.Ways t track calrie intake.
Passage 7 (2021·湖南永州市·高三二模)
When it cmes t understanding hw anther persn thinks and feels, it might be best t clse yur eyes and listen. A study by Michael Kraus, a scial psychlgist at Yale University, suggests that peple are better able t pick up n the emtins f thers when simply fcusing n their vice, cmpared with bth watching and listening t them, r just watching them.
The study was published in the jurnal American Psychlgist. It described a series f five experiments invlving mre than 1,770 participants wh were asked t rate hw anther persn felt using a series f scenes reflecting different emtins. Amng the experiments, 266 strangers were paired up. They were asked t discuss film and TV then fd and drink in bth a lighted rm and a rm with the lights ff. In each case, participants then rated their wn emtins and thse f their partner n a series f scenes. The results revealed that participants were better able t accurately estimate their partner’s feelings when the lights were ff.
Ray Wilkinsn, prfessr f human cmmunicatin at the University f Sheffield, said that the study was interesting. But he nted that the findings were based an experimental situatins that might nt reflect “real life” interactins, Wilkinsn added, “While the cntent f a persn's speech is, unsurprisingly, imprtant, ther researches have fund that gestures can help t get a pint acrss.”
Wilkinsn cntinued with the idea that the “true” emtin is prblematic. As verbal and facial cues (暗示) might ffer a different message, which thus leads t a different emtin, the s-called “true” emtin can be part f what we are wanting t cnvey. In ther wrds, it depends what the ‘true’ emtin is, fr that in itself can be a rather cntrversial cncept.
25.Hw can peple better understand thers' emtins?
A.By just watching them. B.By simply listening t them.
C.By just crrespnding t them. D.By bth watching and listening t them.
26.What's the secnd paragraph mainly abut?
A.Lights influencing participants' emtins.
B.Participants rating partners’ different emtins.
C.A study describing five experiments cncerning emtins.
D.Experiments discussing film and TV and fd in the rm.
27.What is Ray Wilkinsn's attitude twards the research?
A.Tlerant.B.Ambiguus.
C.Favrable.D.Skeptical.
28.What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A.The true emtin can be easily judged. B.Facial cues will cnvey the true emtin.
C.Verbal cues can definitely shw the true emtin. D.The true emtin may nt be reflected thrughly.
Passage 8(2021·辽宁高三月考)
Many studies have shwn that getting mre exercise is gd fr ur brain. But can it happen the ther way arund? Can wrking n elevating md help us t exercise mre? The answer t this questin is psitive.
A study cnducted by Emmns and McCullugh frmed three grups. One grup was tld t jurnal nce a week and list 5 things that happened during the week that they were grateful fr. Anther grup was tld t jurnal nce a week and list 5 things that had been a prblem fr them. A third grup was tld t jurnal nce a week abut 5 things that affected them, but were nt given instructin as t whether they shuld be psitive r negative.
After 10 weeks, the grup that had fcused n gratitude ended up 25%happier than the ther tw grups. Astnishingly, the gratitude grup als exercised almst 1. 5 hurs lnger per week than the ther grups.
Daniel Amen, in his bk, Change Yur Brain, Change Yur Life, ntes that emtinal tagging f events is critical t survival. If we tag an event negatively, it can cause an avidance respnse. If we tag an event psitively, it can drive us t actin.
Apparently, ur survival is mre dependent n being able t perceive a threat t ur being, rather than ntice that smething gd is happening. Fcusing n the negative can cause us t lse sight f the big picture.
Jnathan Haidt, in his bk The Happiness Hypthesis, explains that nce we take a negative stance, we lk fr evidence that supprts it. If we find sme evidence-enugh s that ur psitin makes sense-we stp thinking. When this happens, ften peple will nt start a change f thinking fr themselves.
Jnathan Haidt ntes that gratitude increases ne's sense f cntrl ver a situatin. A sense f cntrl can bring abut an increase in actin, energy, and happiness. This can translate int sustained ptimism, the ability t cnsider new ptins, set new gals, and, yes, even exercise mre.
29.What were the three grups in Emmns and McCullugh's study asked t d?
A.Write five things dwnB.Take exercise regularly
C.Fcus n being thankfulD.Express their true feelings
30.Why is emtinal tagging significant?
A.It prtects us frm negative emtins.B.It allws us t think in a psitive way.
C.It tells us hw t manage ur feelings.D.It determines hw we respnd t events.
31.Hw can being grateful benefit us accrding t Jnathan Haidt?
A.It helps us t get rid f unrealistic gals.B.We feel situatins are mre cntrllable.
C.It is a great way t stp thinking t much.D.We will regard everything arund wnderful.
32.What is the best title fr the text?
A.Changing Thinking Mdel Is NecessaryB.Staying Optimistic Brings Active Thinking
C.Wrking Out Regularly Is Gd fr Our BrainD.Being Grateful Mtivates Us t Exercise Mre
Passage 9(2021·湖北武汉市·高三月考)
Killer whales, r rcas, are knwn fr their severe attacks n sea animals but they have never psed a threat t humans. Hwever, since late July, the nrmally scial animals have been intentinally attacking sailbats ff the casts f Spain and Prtugal.
The strange behavir first surfaced n July 29, 2020, when a 46-ft bat was repeatedly attacked fr almst an hur by nine rcas, causing the bat t rtate(旋转) 180 degrees and having its engine switched ff. Since then, ver 30 mre similar incidents have been reprted. On September 23, 2020, Spain's gvernment banned bats f less than 50 feet in length frm sailing in the 60-mile stretch f the Atlantic castline between Ferrl and the Estaca de Bares Cape, where the attacks have been ccurring.
Researchers acrss the wrld are trying t explain the rcas' behavir. Sme believe it culd be a result f the verfishing f the bluefish tuna - the rcas' primary fd surce -which has left the area's killer whales starving and unable t feed their babies. "I saw them lk at bats carrying fish. I think they knw humans are smehw related t fd shrtages, "says Ken Balcmb, senir scientist at the Center fr Whale Research in Washingtn, USA.The envirnmentalists believe the sudden increase in bat traffic and fishing activities, after mnths f absence due t restrictins n human activity last spring, culd als be cntributing t the agitatin.
Hwever, Alfred López, a bilgy prfessr in Galicia, Spain, thinks the attacks are defensive measures the rcas adpted t prtect themselves against bat injuries. The researcher came t this cnclusin after lking at the f the vides f a few incidents and nticing that tw f the yung killer whales invlved had serius injuries. Hpefully, the experts will be able t find a way t restre the harmny between the animals and the humans sn.
33.What d we knw abut rcas in paragraph 1?
A.They are friendly t humans.B.They have changed their behavir.
