B.$125.C.$127. D.$134.【解析】选B。细微环节理解题。依据Pricing中Package1:Exhibitspluschoiceofoneexperience$11可知,10个学生的费用是11×10=110美元;再依据Onefreeadultgeneral...thestudentadmissionrate.每10名付费学生可免费获得一次成人一般入场券。免费成人门票不包括IMAX纪录片。这些成年人将收取4美元的IMAX纪录片门票。超出这一比例的成人将按学生入场价格收费。可知,两名老师的费用是4+11=15美元。因此全部价格是110+15=125美元。23.Whencanwereserveafieldtripbyphone?A.Onweekends.B.AnyMondayorTuesday.C.Twoworkdaysaheadofthevisittime.D.Atleast14daysbeforetheactualvisit.【解析】选D。细微环节理解题。依据ScheduleYourFieldTrip中...orcall(206)443-2925Monday—Fridayfrom8:30a.m.to4:30p.m.notlessthantwoweeksaheadofyourvisitdate.请在访问日期前不少于两周,在周一至周五上午8:30至下午4:30,可以打电话(206)443-2925预订你的实地考察。可知,至少在实地考察前2周,也就是至少14天前打电话预订。B(2024·天水高一检测)Onthedaythetornadohit,therewasnosignsevereweatherwasonitsway—theskywasblueandthesunhadbeenout.MyhusbandJimmyandIwerewatchingTVupstairs.Nosoonerhadwegotthecoverageofthetornadothanitwasontopofus.ItwastheloudestthingIhaveeverheard.Thebonesofthehouseshook,andthepowerwentout.Wehadthreeflightsofstepstogetthroughtogettotherelativesafetyofthefirstfloor.Aswestruggledtoreachthelastflightofstepsourfrontdoorblewout.Piecesofglassthatlookedlikecrushedicefleweverywhere.Suddenly,athree-foot-longtreebranchflewoverourheads,missingusbyinches.Hadwebeenonestepup,itwouldhaveimpaledus.BythetimeIreachedthecloset,Jimmypushedmedowntotheclosetfloor,buthecouldn'tgetinsidehimselfbecauseofthewind.IgraspedJimmy'sarmandtriedtobringJimmywithit.Mykneesandheadwerefullofglass,butinthatmoment,Ifeltnopain.IfIhadletgo,Jimmywouldhaveflownrightoutthebackofthehouseandintothebay.“Holdon!Holdon!”heyelled.Buttherewasnothinginthisclosettoholdonto.Allofasudden,Jimmyliftedoffhisfeetlikepeopleintornadoesdointhemovies.Ithoughthewasgone.Andtheneverythingstopped.Helandedonhisfeet.Inthosefirstquietmoments,Icouldn'tbelieveitwasover.Jimmysaidhe'dgooutsidetocheck.“No,”Isaid.“Don'tleaveme.Don'tleaveme.”Ourneighborsaysthestormlastedfourminutes.Inthattime,fourofthetwelvetownhousesinourunitwerecompletelydestroyed.Ofthehousesleftstanding,ourssufferedthemostdamage.Amazingly,noneofuswereseverelyinjured.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。故事讲解并描述了作者和丈夫经验了一场龙卷风的攻击,他们在这场灾难中相互支撑、相互扶持,最终幸存了下来。24.WhichofthefollowingsentencesisNOTtheevidencetoshowthetornadoisviolent?A.ItwastheloudestthingIhaveeverheard.B.Thebonesofthehouseshook,andthepowerwentout.C.Ourneighborsaysthestormlastedfourminutes.D.Piecesofglassthatlookedlikecrushedicefleweverywhere.【解析】选C。细微环节理解题。依据文章其次段这是作者听到过的最大的声音。房子的骨架在晃动,停电了,风咆哮着从吹走门框的窗户里吹进来。依据第三段可知尖利的玻璃碎片从四面八方飞来。因此,从A、B、D三个方面可以推断出龙卷风特别猛烈,而C选项错误。故选C。25.Fromthepassage,wecaninferthat.

A.Thecouplehadpredictedthearrivalofthetornadoinadvance.B.Jimmyflewrightoutthebackofthehouseandintothebayduringthetornado.C.Thethree-foot-longtreebranchflewoverthecouple'sheadsandinjuredthembadly.D.Theauthorstillfeltscaredwhenthetornadowassuddenlyover.【解析】选D。推理推断题。依据整篇文章作者对这次经验的描述,尤其第三段Hadwebeenonestepup,itwouldhaveimpaledus.我们往上多走一步就会把我们刺穿了。可知作者在龙卷风之后仍心有余悸。26.Whydidtheauthorfeel“nopain”inParagraph4?A.Shedidn'thurtbadlyenoughtosensethepain.B.Shewasseverelyinjuredandfailedtosensethepain.C.Herattentionwasfullyfocusedonherhusband.D.Shehadletherhusbandgoawayfromherhand.【解析】选C。细微环节理解题。依据第四段中的“IfIhadletgo,Jimmywouldhaveflownrightoutthebackofthehouseandintothebay.”可知,作者一松手,丈夫就会被龙卷风从房子后面吹到海里去,可见她专注于抓住丈夫而感觉不到难受。27.Whichofthefollowingphrasesbestdescribesthecouple'sexperienceinthistornado?A.AthrillingadventureB.AnarrowescapeC.AriskyattemptD.Aseriousaccident【解析】选B。推理推断题。作者讲解并描述了自己与丈夫经验了一场突如其来的龙卷风的故事。龙卷风特别猛烈。作者的丈夫因风力强劲,差点被吹走。龙卷风平静后,作者感慨自己劫后余生的幸运。依据文章大意可知“Anarrowescape九死一生”更适合于描述作者的经验。C(2024·徐州高一检测)Naturecalmsourstressed-outsoul.Natureisthebestmedicine,butnewresearchisshowinghowlittletimeweneedtosetasidetoharvestthebenefits.Inonenewstudy,researcherstriedtofindthemosteffective“dose”(药剂)ofnaturewithinthecontextofnormaldailylife.Asmoredoctorsprescribe(开药方)natureexperiencesforstressreliefandotherhealthbenefits—sometimesreferredtoasa“naturepill”—thestudy'sauthorshopedtomakethedetailsofthesetreatmentsclear.“Weknowthatspendingtimeinnaturereducesstress,butuntilnowitisunclearhowmuchisenough,howoftentodoit,orevenwhatkindofnatureexperiencewillbenefitus,”saysleadauthorMaryCarolHunterinastatement.“Ourstudyshowsthatforthegreatestpayoff,intermsofefficientlyloweringlevelsofthestresshormonecortisone(压力荷尔蒙激素),youshouldspend20to30minutessittingorwalkinginaplacethatprovidesyouwithasenseofnature.”Anaturepillcanbealow-cost,low-riskwaytocurbthenegativeeffectsofurbanizationandindoorlifestyle.Tofindthemostefficientdosage,Hunterandherco-authorsasked36citycitizenstohavenatureexperiencesofatleast10minutesthreetimesperweekovereightweeks.Everytwoweeks,theresearcherscollectedsaliva(唾液)samplestomeasurelevelsofthestresshormonecortisone,bothbeforeandaftertheparticipantstookanaturepill.Thedatashowedthatjusta20-minutenatureexperiencewasenoughtosignificantlyreducecortisonelevels.Theeffectwasmoreefficientbetween20and30minutes,afterwhichbenefitscontinuedtoincreasebutataslowerrate.Thatfitswiththefindingsofanotherrecentstudy,whichfoundthatspending20minutesinanurbanparkcanmakeyouhappier,nomatterwhetheryouusethattimetoexercise.Forthisstudy,94adultsvisited3urbanparksinMountainBrook,Alabama,completingaquestionnaireabouttheirsubjectivewell-beingbeforeandaftertheirvisit.Anaccelerometer(加速计)trackedtheirphysicalactivity.Avisitlasting20to25minutesshowedthebestresults,witharoughly64%increaseintheparticipants’self-reportedwell-being,eveniftheydidn'tmoveagreatdealinthepark.Thatlastpointisparticularlypositive,sinceitmeansanyonecanbenefitfromvisitinganearbypark,whateverhisorherageorphysicalability.“Thereisincreasingpressureongreenspacewithinurbansettings,”saidaUABprofessorGavinJenkins.“Plannersanddeveloperslooktoreplacegreenspacewithresidential(住宅的)andcommercialproperty.Thechallengefacingcitiesisthatthereisincreasingevidenceaboutthevalueofcityparksbutwecontinuetoseethedisappearanceofthesespaces.”【文章大意】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了“自然药丸”对人的作用,并说明白适度地接触大自然可以使人获益,提升人的华蜜感,最终强调了城市公园的重要性。28.Theauthorsofthestudyexpectedto.

A.studythetreatmentsofnatureindetailB.findaneffectivewaytotreatstressC.introducethebenefitsof“naturepill”D.sharesomerewardingnatureexperiences【解析】选A。细微环节理解题。依据其次段可知,随着越来越多的医生为了缓解压力和其他健康好处(有时被称为“自然药丸”)而开出自然体验处方,这项探讨的作者们希望这些治疗的细微环节能够更加清楚。由此可知,这项探讨的作者希望更加具体地探讨自然治疗法。29.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“curb”inParagraph4probablymean?A.experience B.realizeC.control D.produce【解析】选C。词义揣测题。依据第四段中画线词后的thenegativeeffectsofurbanizationandindoorlifestyle(城市化和室内生活方式的负面影响)可推知,自然药丸是一种低成本、低风险的方式来抑制或降低这种负面影响的方式。由此推断curb与control的意思最为接近。30.Whatdoesthefirststudymainlyshow?A.Weshouldstayinnatureaslongaspossible.B.Manyhealthproblemsarecausedbygreatpressure.C.Lackofexercisemaygreatlyincreasecortisonelevels.D.Ashortperiodoftimeinnatureisenoughtoreducestress.【解析】选D。细微环节理解题。依据第五段可知,数据显示,仅仅20分钟的自然体验就足以显著降低可的松水平。由此可知,短时间的与自然的接触就足够可以降低人们的压力。31.WhatdoesGavinJenkinswanttoexpressinthelastparagraph?A.Bigcitiesshouldprovidemoresportsfacilities(设施).B.Citydevelopersshouldsparemoregreenspaces.C.Visitingparksbenefitspeople'sphysicalhealth.D.Cityplannersshouldinvestmoreintheproperty.【解析】选B。推理推断题。依据最终一段可知,UAB的加文·詹金斯教授认为,城市环境对绿地的压力越来越大,越来越多的证据表明城市公园的价值,但我们接着看到这些空间的消逝。由此推断GavinJenkins呼吁城市建设者为城市留出更多的绿色空间。DWedon'tknowhowdifferentourlifewillbeinthefuture.Wecanonlytrytoimagineit.Atfirstwethinkabouthumanrelationships.Intheyear2050,wewillusecomputersalmosteveryday.WewillbemakingnewfriendsthroughtheInternet—evenourhusbandsorwiveswillbemetinthisway.Itwillbemuchfasterandeasierforus.Ontheotherhand,ourrelationshipswithotherpeoplewon'tbeasimportantastheyaretoday—wewillfeelalittlelonely.Computerswillalsohelpusinmanyotheractivitiesin2050.Forexample,theywillbeusedbychildrenatschooltomaketheirlearningeasier.Inaddition,therewillbemoreothermachineswhichwillplayasimilarroleascomputers,likerobotswhichwilldothehouseworkforus.Spendingholidayswillalsobecompletelydifferent.Travelingtootherplanetsortothemoonwillbeavailableforeveryone.Meansoftransportwill,ofcourse,change,too.Wewillbeusingsolar-poweredcars,whichwillbemuchenvironmentallyfriendly.Wecouldexpectthatthefastereconomicdevelopmentwouldleadtoamorepollutedenvironment.Butitisn'ttrue.Wewillpaymoreattentiontoprotectingtheenvironment.Scientistswillprobablyfindcuresformanydangerousdiseases,likecancerorAIDS.Therefore,oursurroundingsaswellashealthwillbeinabettercondition.Althoughwecannotpredicttheexactchangeswhichwillbemadeintheworld,weoftenthinkaboutthem.Weworryaboutourandourchildren'sfuture;wehaveexpectations,hopesaswellasfears.ButIthinkweshouldberathersanguineaboutourfuture.Weshouldbehappyandbelievegoodthingswillhappen.【文章大意】本文主要是对2050年的世界将会发生什么变更进行了简洁的想象,提到了人们将去其他星球旅行,以及电脑、机器人等能为人类做的各种事情等。32.Theunderlinedword“sanguine”inthelastparagraphmostprobablymeans.

A.disappointed B.surprisedC.curious D.optimistic【解析】选D。词义揣测题。依据最终一段的最终一句可知,作者认为我们应当对将来保持乐观的心态,信任美妙的事情将会发生。disappointed悲观的;surprised惊异的;curious新奇的;optimistic乐观的。故选D。33.Accordingtothepassage,whichofthefollowingwillhappenin2050?A.Itwillnotbedifficultforpeopletotraveltootherplanets.B.Ourenvironmentwillbemuchpollutedwithagrowingnumberofcars.C.Thewayofspendingholidayswillbethesameasthatoftoday.D.Therelationshipsbetweenpeoplewillbemoreimportant.【解析】选A。细微环节理解题。依据第四段第一、二句可知,在2050年,度假也将会变得不同,每个人都能去其他星球旅行。34.Thethirdparagraphmainlytells.

A.thatcomputerswilldoallthethingsforhumanbeingsB.howpeoplewilluserobotstodothehouseworkC.thatmachineslikecomputersandrobotswillhelppeoplealotD.howpeoplewillusecomputerstocommunicatewitheachother【解析】选C。段落大意题。第三段讲的是,到2050年,像电脑和机器人这样的机器将帮助人们做很多事情。35.Whatdoesthepassagemainlytalkabout?A.Whathightechnologywillappearintheyear2050.B.Whatourlifewillbelikeintheyear2050.C.Howpeoplewillcommunicateintheyear2050.D.Howpeoplewilltravelandspendtheirholidaysintheyear2050.【解析】选B。主旨大意题。依据文章第一段内容,及其后各段落的第一句可知,文章对2050年的生活进行了一些大胆的猜想,故选B。其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。InvestinginyourselfFiguringouthowtoinvestyourmoneycanbeadifficulttask.Thisissomethingthatyouwillwanttolearnhowtodo.36Thingsthatwillimproveyourknowledge,skillsorhealthareallgreatinvestments.However,beforeyoustart,youneedtobeclearaboutwhatyouwillgainoutofdoingallofthesethings.
