We just got back from a weeklong trip through New Mexico where we traveled through desert landscapes, hiked up mountains, and walked through dry creek beds. We experienced nature and wildlife that was vastly distinct from what I’ve seen before.
We’ve lived in Atlanta for 25 years so it was quite a change from our “city in a forest”. My husband and I were joined by our adult so n who now lives in San Diego and is a little more familiar with the west. We like to visit national parks and explore interesting ecosystems.
In New Mexico, everything seemed striking and amazing. Starting in Albuquerque, we took a tram up the Sandia Peak in the Sandia Mountains, where we had fantastic views as we watched parasailers float off into the unending sky. We then drove to Abiquiu, the town where artist Georgia O’Keeffe was so inspired. We stayed at a lovely home pretty much in the middle of nowhere. First, we noticed the breathtaking setting. Then we noticed the ants: billions of tiny ants were marching all over the outside of the property. They were carrying off a few of the native bees that had fallen to the ground near the house.
Once we were awakened in the middle of the night by howling (嚎叫) that was both strange and musical. We were told about the coyotes (郊狼) that share the area, so we weren’t surprised when we woke up the next morning to some pretty impressive pawprints right outside the back door. On our final morning hike before heading south in the state, we even spotted a large snake curled up on the path, enjoying the warm morning sun. We stayed far out of its way but certainly watched our steps a little more carefully.
We talked about sustainability throughout the trip. In the past several decades, there’s been so much noticeable change in our travel adventures. That will be great to keep the skies cleaner and save energy. And the coyotes and
snakes can be left to dance and enjoy in peace.
4. What was the family’s first impression of the trip to New Mexico
A. It was familiar to them in many aspects.
B. It was dangerous but totally fresh for them.
C. It was simple and plain with little to explore.
D. It was quite different from their previous experiences.
5. Which of the following best describes the author’s experience in New Mexico
A. Romantic. B. Eventful. C. Conventional. D. Regretful.
6. What message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. It’s beneficial for us to take an adventure tour.
B. It’s threatening to live with wildlife around.
C. It’s necessary to boost sustainable tourism.
D. It’s difficult to keep the balance of ecosystem.
7. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A reflection in a travel journal. B. An essay about the plans for traveling.
C. A guidebook to a new destination. D. An introduction of a new type of traveling.
【答案】4. D5. B6. C7. A

推理判断题。根据第三段“Starting in Albuquerque, we took a tram up the Sandia Peak in the Sandia Mountains, where we had fantastic views as we watched parasailers float off into the unending sky.(从阿尔伯克基出发，我们乘坐有轨电车登上桑迪亚山脉的桑迪亚峰，在那里我们看到了奇妙的景色，我们看着滑翔伞漂浮在无边无际的天空中)”，“Then we noticed the ants: billions of tiny ants were marching all over the outside of the property.(然后，我们注意到了蚂蚁：数十亿只小蚂蚁在院子外面到处移动)”，第四段“Once we were awakened in the middle of the night by howling (嚎叫) that was both strange and musical. We were told about the coyotes (郊狼) that share the area, so we weren’t surprised when we woke up the next morning to
some pretty impressive pawprints right outside the back door.(有一次，我们在半夜被既奇怪又悦耳的嚎叫惊醒。我们被告知这片区域有郊狼，所以当我们第二天早上醒来时，发现后门外面有一些令人印象深刻的爪印时，我们并不感到惊讶)”和“On our final morning hike before heading south in the state, we even spotted a large snake curled up on the path, enjoying the warm morning sun.(在我们向南出发前的最后一次早晨徒步旅行中，我们甚至发现一条大蛇蜷缩在小路上，享受着早晨温暖的阳光)”可知，他们欣赏了美丽的风景，看到了蚂蚁结队，听到了郊狼的嚎叫还看到了蛇，这次旅行对他们来说那是经历很丰富的，eventful符合题意。故选B。

Imagine being able to use energy from the sun all the time, even when it’s night. That’s the idea that scientists at Caltech（California Institute of Technology）are exploring. They’re working on collecting sunlight in space and sending its energy to Earth.
Caltech’s scientists have created a special tool for this project. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and two other devices are part of a project that was sent into space in January, 2023. MAPLE’s job is to test the idea of sending energy wirelessly from space to Earth. We’re used to using wires to move electrical energy from one place to another.
But sending energy without wires is a lot trickier.
The method used by Caltech’s scientists depends on the way waves act when they meet. Imagine two waves coming together as they travel in the same direction. If the tops of the waves line up, they combine to make a bigger wave. But if the top of one wave lines up with the low point of the other, the waves cancel each other out. The Caltech team has found a way to control the timing of lots of microwaves so that they can combine their power, and focus the energy in one direction. It’s a little like using a magnifying（放大的）glass to focus sunlight into a small, hot point of light.
To prove that the system could work, MAPLE sent energy to two devices just 30 centimeters away in space. This energy was then turned into electricity, which made two small lights light up. Next, MAPLE sent energy all the way down to a lab at Caltech. The scientists were able to detect the energy, proving that it’s possible to send solar energy to Earth from space.
Dr. Hajimiri, one of the project’s leaders, thinks that one day, the system could be extremely useful, bringing energy to places that need it, all over the world. He believes that in the future, we’ll be able to send energy to remote regions and areas destroyed by war or natural disaster.
8. What is the challenge in Caltech’s project with MAPLE
A. Solar energy detection.
B. Wireless energy delivery.
C. Sending devices into space.
D. Using wires to move electricity.
9. How does the Caltech team concentrate solar power
A. By changing the way microwaves act.
B. By magnifying waves coming together.
C. By controlling the timing of microwaves.
D. By lining up the waves in opposite directions.
10. What potential benefit could the system bring in the future according to Dr. Hajimiri
A. Warning people of natural disasters.
B. Turning solar energy into electricity.
C. Providing a solution to energy shortages.
D. Sending energy to regions in urgent need.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Use of Solar Energy in Space Exploration
B. The Challenges of Generating Energy Without Wires
C. The Development of a New Tool for Collecting Electricity
D. The Possibility of Sending Energy Wirelessly from Space to Earth
【答案】8. B9. C10. D11. D
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Caltech’s scientists have created a special tool for this project. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and two other devices are part of a project that was sent into space in January, 2023. MAPLE’s job is to test the idea of sending energy wirelessly from space to Earth. We’re used to using wires to move electrical energy from one place to another. But sending energy without wires is a lot trickier.(加州理工学院的科学家们为这个项目创造了一个特殊的工具。他们称之为MAPLE。MAPLE和另外两个设备是2023年1月送入太空的一个项目的一部分。MAPLE的任务是测试从太空向地球无线发送能量的想法。我们习惯于用电线把电能从一个地方传输到另一个地方。但是在没有电线的情况下传输能量要棘手得多)”可知，MAPLE的挑战是无线能量传输。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The Caltech team has found a way to control the timing of lots of microwaves so that they can combine their power, and focus the energy in one direction. It’s a little like using a magnifying（放大的）glass to focus sunlight into a small, hot point of light.(加州理工学院的研究小组已经找到了一种方法来控制大量微波的时间，这样它们就可以结合它们的能量，并将能量集中在一个方向上。这有点像用放大镜把太阳光聚焦成一个小的热点)”可知，加州理工学院的团队通过控制微波的时间来集中太阳能。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Dr. Hajimiri, one of the project’s leaders, thinks that one day, the system could be extremely useful, bringing energy to places that need it, all over the world. He believes that in the future, we’ll be able to send energy to remote regions and areas destroyed by war or natural disaster.(Hajimiri博士是该项目的领导者之一，他认为有一天，这个系统会非常有用，把能源带到世界各地需要它的地方。他相信，在未来，我们将能够向偏远地区和被战争或自然灾害摧毁的地区输送能源)”可知，根据Hajimiri博士的说法，这个系统在未来会向急需能源的地区输送能源。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Imagine being able to use energy from the sun all the time, even when it’s night. That’s the idea that scientists at Caltech（California Institute of Technology）are exploring. They’re working on collecting sunlight in space and sending its energy to Earth.(想象一下，可以一直使用太阳能，即使是在晚上。这就是加州理工学院(Caltech)的科学家们正在探索的想法。他们正致力于在太空中收集阳光并将其能量发送到地球)”以及纵观全文可知，主要讨论了使用Caltech科学家创造的特殊工具MAPLE从太空向地球无线传输能源的可能性，所以D项“The Possibility of Sending Energy Wirelessly from Space to Earth(从太空向地球无线传输能量的可能性)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。
D
On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D. C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks in Paris, ginkgo (银杏) trees are losing their leaves in reaction to the first gust of cold winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with golden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change. But the story of ginkgos is not the familiar one of human carelessness with nature.
Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170 million years to the Jurassic Period. “It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It’s such a great evolutionary (进化) and cultural story,” says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert.
One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.
Ginkgo trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed through their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.
Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says.
12. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo’s leaf drop
A. The colder weather in winter.
B. The protection from city councils.
C. The global warming phenomenon.
D. The careless interaction with humans.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The reasons why ginkgos almost died out.
B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants.
C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos.
D. The competition between various flowering plants.
14. What might have contributed to ginkgos’ survival
A. Their eatable seeds. B. Their unpleasant smell.
C. The natural evolution. D. The careful planting.
15. How does Crane feel about ginkgos’ future
A. Worried. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeless.
【答案】12. C13. A14. A15. B

推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change.(科学家们正在记录这一事件发生得越来越晚的证据，这可能是气候变化的一个迹象)”可推知，全球变暖现象可能是导致银杏落叶时间进一步推迟的原因。故选C项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.(关于银杏物种衰落的一种理论始于1.3亿年前，当时开花植物开始传播。它们的生长速度比银杏快，吸引了更多的传粉者。“有可能银杏被挤出了生存的道路，”克雷恩说。已经在为生存而竞争的银杏，在全球变冷时期开始消失，这一时期大约始于6600万年前。到最后一个冰河时代结束前的11000年，剩下的幸存者在中国被发现)”可知，本段主要讲述了银杏树几乎灭绝的原因，包括与其他植物的竞争以及全球变冷等因素。因此，本段的主要内容是关
于银杏树几乎灭绝的原因。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.(同样的种子可能在1000年前帮助银杏赢得了人类的青睐。一旦去掉外层，银杏种子就可以安全食用。然后，当这些树在其他地方早已消失的时候，中国人可能已经开始种植它们并食用它们的种子。然后银杏逐渐传播到世界各地。现在它似乎对昆虫和高水平的空气污染具有天然的抵抗力)”可知，银杏树能够生存下来，部分原因是因为它们的种子可以被人类食用。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says.(不过，克雷恩并不担心它的未来：这个物种的受欢迎程度将有助于它的生存。“尽管它在野外的地位可能难以评估，但它是一种不太可能灭绝的植物，”他说)”可知，专家Crane对银杏树的未来并不担心，认为这个物种的受欢迎程度将有助于它的生存。由此推知，Crane对银杏的未来是乐观的。故选B想。

【36题详解】
考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：自从茶树在几千年前被发现以来，这种饮料已经与日常生活紧密结合，并发展成为一种独特的文化。茶树是被发现，由thousands of years ago可知，时态是一般过去时，因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态，主语trees是复数，因此空格处是were discovered。故填were discovered。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：自从茶树在几千年前被发现以来，这种饮料已经与日常生活紧密结合，并发展成为一种独特的文化。culture是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，unique是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：一个正在进行的以茶文化为主题的展览试图通过为游客提供一个全面的饮料视图来探索答案。句中谓语是manages，空格处用非谓语动词，exhibition和focus之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，作定语。故填focusing。
39题详解】

【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它展示了555件与茶文化有关的物品，其中许多是国内外30家文化机构和博物馆的代表性藏品。句中谓语是displays，空格处用非谓语动词，items和attach之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，作定语。故填attached。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：它展示了555件与茶文化有关的物品，其中许多是国内外30家文化机构和博物馆的代表性藏品。空格处是“介词+which/whom”引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词items是物，因此空格处用which，故填which。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意：此外，它还提供了一种文化现象的起源、演变和显著成就的见解，同时强调了它如何成为连接不同地区和促进各民族融合的统一线索。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词achievements，remark的形容词是remarkable，意为“引人注目的，非凡的”，故填remarkable。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：它以茶为媒介，展示了中国茶文化的精髓，也体现了中国天人合一的哲学追求。philosophical是形容词，修饰名词，pursue的名词是pursuit，意为“追求”，是不可数名词，作宾语。故填pursuit。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：我们希望通过设置互动空间，让观众完全沉浸在展览中。空格处用副词修饰动词lose，complete的副词是completely，意为“完全地”，故填completely。
【45题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：我们希望通过设置互动空间，让观众完全沉浸在展览中。根据语境可知，句子表示“我们希望通过设置互动空间，让观众完全沉浸在展览中”，set up是固定短语，意为“设置”，因此空格处是up，故填up。

Mike was a big fan of football. When he was ten years old, he was admitted to join his first football team. As soon as he got home that day, he put on his uniform and admired himself in front of the mirror.
“I’m a real football player!” He said to himself and pretended to practise football.
“What are you doing, silly boy ” asked his older sister.
“I’m practising football,” said Mike.
“When people practise football, they usually use a ball,” his sister laughed.
Mike then found a football in the basement and hurried back to his room, posing with the ball in front of the mirror, again.
The next day, Mike met his teammates on the playground. The coach taught them how to kick and run after the ball. He taught them how to throw the ball in from the sidelines, using two hands while keeping both feet on the ground. Finally, they had a practice game.
It turned out that playing football was a lot harder than it looked. Every time Mike was about to kick the ball, someone else kicked it away from him. When Mike threw the ball in from the sideline, he forgot to keep both feet on the ground. The only thing that Mike was good at was cheering. Whoever scored, he would jump up and cheer for them.
On the weekend, Mike’s team was invited to take part in its first real competition with the Sun. Mike’s family all came to watch. Mike chased the ball up and down, with excitement. It came as no surprise that their team lost the match. Even so, he kept cheering for anyone who scored.
After the game, his sister came over and reminded Mike that he needed to be a real football player, not just a cheerleader. Meanwhile, his coach told Mike that if he tried to do more practice and cooperate with his teammates, he could be a better football player, too.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

Finally, the day for the match between his team and the Sun came.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Motivated by their words, Mike started to take the training more seriously. Day after day, he spared no effort to practice, regardless of wind or rain. Every time he felt too tired to continue, their words lifted his spirits and pushed him to rise to his feet again. With the coach’s guidance and his dedicated training, Mike found himself making steady progress. The whole team also became more confident and was looking forward to the next match against the Sun.
Finally, the day for the match between his team and the Sun came. Thinking of all the effort he had made for the game, Mike, fully-prepared and confident, took a deep breath and stepped onto the football field. Instead of chasing the ball up and down aimlessly, he kept passing the ball right to his teammates who were better at scoring. At length, his team won the game and all the teammates ran to him and threw him into the air with deafening cheers.

We just got back from a weeklong trip through New Mexico where we traveled through desert landscapes, hiked up mountains, and walked through dry creek beds. We experienced nature and wildlife that was vastly distinct from what I’ve seen before.
We’ve lived in Atlanta for 25 years so it was quite a change from our “city in a forest”. My husband and I were joined by our adult so n who now lives in San Diego and is a little more familiar with the west. We like to visit national parks and explore interesting ecosystems.
In New Mexico, everything seemed striking and amazing. Starting in Albuquerque, we took a tram up the Sandia Peak in the Sandia Mountains, where we had fantastic views as we watched parasailers float off into the unending sky. We then drove to Abiquiu, the town where artist Georgia O’Keeffe was so inspired. We stayed at a lovely home pretty much in the middle of nowhere. First, we noticed the breathtaking setting. Then we noticed the ants: billions of tiny ants were marching all over the outside of the property. They were carrying off a few of the native bees that had fallen
to the ground near the house.
Once we were awakened in the middle of the night by howling (嚎叫) that was both strange and musical. We were told about the coyotes (郊狼) that share the area, so we weren’t surprised when we woke up the next morning to some pretty impressive pawprints right outside the back door. On our final morning hike before heading south in the state, we even spotted a large snake curled up on the path, enjoying the warm morning sun. We stayed far out of its way but certainly watched our steps a little more carefully.
We talked about sustainability throughout the trip. In the past several decades, there’s been so much noticeable change in our travel adventures. That will be great to keep the skies cleaner and save energy. And the coyotes and snakes can be left to dance and enjoy in peace.
4. What was the family’s first impression of the trip to New Mexico
A. It was familiar to them in many aspects.
B. It was dangerous but totally fresh for them.
C. It was simple and plain with little to explore.
D. It was quite different from their previous experiences.
5. Which of the following best describes the author’s experience in New Mexico
A. Romantic. B. Eventful. C. Conventional. D. Regretful.
6. What message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. It’s beneficial for us to take an adventure tour.
B. It’s threatening to live with wildlife around.
C. It’s necessary to boost sustainable tourism.
D. It’s difficult to keep the balance of ecosystem.
7. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A reflection in a travel journal. B. An essay about the plans for traveling.
C. A guidebook to a new destination. D. An introduction of a new type of traveling.

Imagine being able to use energy from the sun all the time, even when it’s night. That’s the idea that scientists at Caltech（California Institute of Technology）are exploring. They’re working on collecting sunlight in space and sending its energy to Earth.
Caltech’s scientists have created a special tool for this project. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and two other devices are part of a project that was sent into space in January, 2023. MAPLE’s job is to test the idea of sending energy wirelessly from space to Earth. We’re used to using wires to move electrical energy from one place to another.
But sending energy without wires is a lot trickier.
The method used by Caltech’s scientists depends on the way waves act when they meet. Imagine two waves coming together as they travel in the same direction. If the tops of the waves line up, they combine to make a bigger wave. But if the top of one wave lines up with the low point of the other, the waves cancel each other out. The Caltech team has found a way to control the timing of lots of microwaves so that they can combine their power, and focus the energy in one direction. It’s a little like using a magnifying（放大的）glass to focus sunlight into a small, hot point of light.
To prove that the system could work, MAPLE sent energy to two devices just 30 centimeters away in space. This energy was then turned into electricity, which made two small lights light up. Next, MAPLE sent energy all the way down to a lab at Caltech. The scientists were able to detect the energy, proving that it’s possible to send solar energy to Earth from space.
Dr. Hajimiri, one of the project’s leaders, thinks that one day, the system could be extremely useful, bringing energy to places that need it, all over the world. He believes that in the future, we’ll be able to send energy to remote regions and areas destroyed by war or natural disaster.
8. What is the challenge in Caltech’s project with MAPLE
A. Solar energy detection.
B. Wireless energy delivery.
C. Sending devices into space.
D. Using wires to move electricity.
9. How does the Caltech team concentrate solar power
A. By changing the way microwaves act.
B. By magnifying waves coming together.
C. By controlling the timing of microwaves.
D. By lining up the waves in opposite directions.
10. What potential benefit could the system bring in the future according to Dr. Hajimiri
A. Warning people of natural disasters.
B. Turning solar energy into electricity.
C. Providing a solution to energy shortages.
D. Sending energy to regions in urgent need.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Use of Solar Energy in Space Exploration
B. The Challenges of Generating Energy Without Wires
C. The Development of a New Tool for Collecting Electricity
D. The Possibility of Sending Energy Wirelessly from Space to Earth
D
On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D. C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks in Paris, ginkgo (银杏) trees are losing their leaves in reaction to the first gust of cold winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with golden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change. But the story of ginkgos is not the familiar one of human carelessness with nature.
Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170 million years to the Jurassic Period. “It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It’s such a great evolutionary (进化) and cultural story,” says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert.
One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.
Ginkgo trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed through their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.
Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says.
12. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo’s leaf drop
A. The colder weather in winter.
B. The protection from city councils.
C. The global warming phenomenon.
D. The careless interaction with humans.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The reasons why ginkgos almost died out.
B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants.
C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos.
D. The competition between various flowering plants.
14. What might have contributed to ginkgos’ survival
A. Their eatable seeds. B. Their unpleasant smell.
C. The natural evolution. D. The careful planting.
15. How does Crane feel about ginkgos’ future
A. Worried. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeless.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mike was a big fan of football. When he was ten years old, he was admitted to join his first football team. As soon as he got home that day, he put on his uniform and admired himself in front of the mirror.
“I’m a real football player!” He said to himself and pretended to practise football.
“What are you doing, silly boy ” asked his older sister.
“I’m practising football,” said Mike.
“When people practise football, they usually use a ball,” his sister laughed.
Mike then found a football in the basement and hurried back to his room, posing with the ball in front of the mirror, again.
The next day, Mike met his teammates on the playground. The coach taught them how to kick and run after the ball. He taught them how to throw the ball in from the sidelines, using two hands while keeping both feet on the ground. Finally, they had a practice game.
It turned out that playing football was a lot harder than it looked. Every time Mike was about to kick the ball, someone else kicked it away from him. When Mike threw the ball in from the sideline, he forgot to keep both feet on the ground. The only thing that Mike was good at was cheering. Whoever scored, he would jump up and cheer for them.
On the weekend, Mike’s team was invited to take part in its first real competition with the Sun. Mike’s family all came to watch. Mike chased the ball up and down, with excitement. It came as no surprise that their team lost the match. Even so, he kept cheering for anyone who scored.
After the game, his sister came over and reminded Mike that he needed to be a real football player, not just a cheerleader. Meanwhile, his coach told Mike that if he tried to do more practice and cooperate with his teammates, he could be a better football player, too.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Motivated by their words, Mike started to take the training more seriously.
