26、Maybe you’re trying to cheer up a friend on a bad day, Or maybe you’re trying to strengthen your friendship. Whatever the case, making your friend feel extra special is an easy and effective way.

Greet your friend with a smile, and smile often while you are with him without faking(伪装) it.

【1】 Besides, smiling will make you sound happier and more positive. It will also let him know that you’re happy to see him, and that you’re interested in what he’s saying.

Paying attention to what the friend is going on in his life, like his hobbies and what he does at work or in school. Take note of people he frequently mentions; these people are probably important to him in one way or another. Give the friend your full attention; don’t play on your phone or computer. 【2】

Call him when you have some free time. If you’re both busy and it’s difficult for you both to make time, schedule a time to talk. 【3】 Send him articles that you think he might enjoy, or things that remind you of him.

【4】 However, it can be an even better gesture to show him he’s special. Think about the things your friend is proud of and strengthen that idea. If your friend is trying something new, like a new outfit or accessory, that is a great opportunity to say something nice.

Whether it’s tomorrow or next month, setting time aside in advance will show it is a priority for you to see him.

【5】 Ask him what he wants to do, and suggest things that you know he’ll like. If you know his good friends, try to include them on the plan. This is an easy way to show him that you’re paying attention to the important person in his life.

A．It makes him feel more heard and appreciated.

B．You should contact each other.

C．It will make you feel happier.

D．Giving praise can be a little difficult.

E．It will finally give you a sense of achievement.

F．You can also stay in touch via text or email.

G．Plan actively with sincerity and thoughtfulness.

27、In the past decade the popularity of rock climbing has greatly increased, and so has the number of injuries. It has been estimated that rock climbing is now enjoyed by more than 9 million people in the US each year. Study findings revealed a 65% increase in the number of patients that were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991 and 2012.

The study, published in the online issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, found that about 40,000 patients were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991 and 2012. The most common types of rock climbing –related injuries were fractures(骨折) and sprains （扭伤）。The ankle was the most common body part to be injured (40%). Climbers in the study ranged in age from 2 to 74, with an average age of 26. The study also found that women took up a quarter of the injuries.

Falls were the primary reason for injury with over three-quarters of the injuries occurring as the result of a fall. The severity of fall-related injuries had a lot to do with the height of the fall. Patients who were injured after falling from a height over 20 feet were 10 times more likely to be treated than patients who were injured falling from 20 feet or lower.

“We found that the climbers who fell from heights higher than 20 feet took up 70 percent of the patients treated for a rock climbing-related injury,” explained the study author Lara McKenzie, PhD, director at the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Hospital. “This trend, combined with the fact that rock climbers have a higher hospitalization rate than other sports and recreational injuries,demonstratesthe need to increase injury prevention efforts for climbers.”

【1】Which body part is most likely to get injured for a climber ?

A. The arm   B. The knee

C. The ankle   D. The hand

【2】How many women climbers in American got injured while climbing a rock between 1991 and 2012 ？

A. About 40,000   B. About 30,000

C. About 20,000   D. About 10,000

【3】The severity of climbers’ fall-related injures is mainly related to ______.

A. the height of the fall.

B. the climber’s age.

C. the climber’s health condition

D. the climber’s climbing experience.

【4】The underlined word “demonstrates” in the last paragraph can be replaced by ________.

A. denies   B. proves   C. prevents   D. describes

My 15-year-old son is refusing to take responsibility for anything and, although he's capable, he does not show any interest in his education. I am worried about him and his future.

Sometimes, I feel bad and tell him that he's trying his best, but soon I start feeling concerned again. At other times, I feel angry with him for the way he is behaving. I try to encourage him by amplifying (放大) every little good thing he does, particularly in school, and have tried speaking to him like an adult. I am also worried that his younger siblings, who are doing well, will follow in his footsteps. Do you have any tips on how I can inspire him to change?

An anxious mother

We have two older teenaged boys who have both come through it and are doing grand now. I think the ages 14 to 16 are the hardest to navigate with boys, so there may be some comfort in knowing this is likely to be the nadir(worst moment) that you are coming through, and it should hopefully improve soon. Honestly their brains are soup at this age! The single most important thing to actually worry about is this — is he happy in himself? If he is, then the worry is not necessary. A small amount of nagging (抱怨) imbued with love and support should be sufficient, so at least they have been advised correctly, even if they choose not to follow the advice at this time.

A practical thing you can do to help self-esteem (自尊) and passion is to give them some different experiences outside of school. We took ours climbing, biking and to music gigs. One boy couldn't deal with the strictness of school and after a horrific year of failure and challenging behaviour, went to college. He loves college because he is in control of his own time and studying the subjects he likes best and now plans to go to university in a couple more years. After failing to get to school on time for over a year, he now gets himself up at 6 am for the hour long bus journey to college.       

The other perfected the art of laziness and non-effort, until he found music at 15, and wanted a music course at university so much. He finally did some work to get the required grades.

Our third teen boy is 13, even lazier than his big brother, and has not found any kind of interest or passion as yet despite having tried a few things, so it’s not clear what shape he will take, but we will not try and force him into a mold he doesn't want to be in. There is plenty of time to learn — he doesn't need to be the finished article in the next four years. As long as he is happy and has been advised of the importance of education and finding a fulfilling career eventually — then we haven't done too badly.

【1】Where might this passage come from?

A．A newspaper.

B．A website.

C．A magazine.

D．A school brochure.

【2】Which of the following is NOT the reason for the mother's concern?

A．Her son is not interested in study.

B．Her son will set a bad example to her other children.

C．Her son's future might be negatively influenced.

D．Her son doesn't behave like an adult.

【3】What measures does Jogi take to educate his two older sons?

A．He just leaves them alone and lets them develop at their own pace.

B．He complains about them and forces them to follow his advice.

C．He takes them to participate in some out-of-school activities.

D．He orders them to get up early to make preparations for college.

【4】Which of the following might Jogi agree with?

A．Parents don't need to do anything as long as their children are happy.

B．Children will naturally find their interest sometime in their life.

C．Parents should be helpful and patient during their children's growth.

D．All the children will eventually find a satisfying career whatever their attitude.

29、

On a recent late fall afternoon at Teddington, the white branches of trees overhung the banks of the Thames, leaves slowly turning yellow. Green walnuts covered the ground. The shallow water ran fast and cold over the rocky bottom, but it was littered with the white shells of dead mussels.

Mussel populations in the river Thames in the UK dropped by as much as 99 per cent between 1964 and 2022. The reason isn’t clear, but the researchers involved suspect it is down to the effects of pollution, habitat loss and climate change.

To shed light on the long-erm trend, Isobel Ollard and David Aldridge at the University of Cambridge found the earliest study available on these mussel populations, a survey on the Thames in Reading, Berkshire, dating from 1964.

In 2022, the pair collected samples and found that the number of duck mussels per given area had decreased to just 1.1 per cent of 1964 levels. The painter mussels had fallen to 3.2 per cent of 1964 levels, and they found no living samples of the depressed river mussels at all. Mussels collected in 2022 were also smaller, reaching between 65 per cent and 90 percent of the length they would have been in 1964 at the same age.

Ollard says this will be having an impact on the ecosystem, because mussels provide important functions in freshwater environments. They can filter (过滤) around 8-10 gallons of river water each day, making the whole river a better environment for fish, plants and bugs. Mussels also benefit the people who use their rivers as a source of drinking water.

While no zebra mussels and Asian clams were found in the 1964 survey, she saw the populations of both rose in the latest survey, but still not enough to make up for the drop in shellfish numbers. “Pollution may be to blame for the overall fall,” Ollard says.

【1】Why does the author describe the scene on the Thames in Paragraph 1?

A．To present a fact.

B．To clarify a concept.

C．To introduce the topic.

D．To make a prediction.

【2】How did the researchers carry out the study?

A．They carried out a survey of mussels’ habitat.

B．They analyzed the historical data of climate change.

C．They recorded how mussels changed from year to year.

D．They compared mussel populations to those of the past.

【3】What Ollard’s attitude to the drop in mussel numbers?

A．Cautious.

B．Worried.

C．Unclear.

D．Optimistic.

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To introduce the function of mussels.

B．To explain the extinction of mussels.

C．To propose new methods of protecting mussels.

D．To reveal the dramatic decline in mussel numbers.

31、根据课文内容填空

We have known about climate change for d【1】. There is little d【2】 that Earth is getting warmer and warmer (see the graph). A warming ocean and atmosphere along with m【3】 ice and rising sea levels provide evidence of a dramatic change in the global climate.

A【5】 to the scientists who found its dead body, all that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones”. An expert who has studied polar bears for many years said that from the【6】of its dead body, the bear appeared to have s【7】 and died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice levels c【8】 by climate change meant the bear could not hunt seals as before, so it had to travel greater distances in order to find food. This alarming case s【9】 how the increase in temperature had an i【10】 on Earth’s ecology.
