A[2024·福建省高三诊断性练习]Today's modern travelers are journeying further to explore Europe off the beaten track, and bringing home new skills and experience. Here are 4 ideas for an unusual holiday in Europe.Volunteer in TransylvaniaTransylvania is a top choice for an unusual European city break, with wonderfully preserved medieval (中世纪的) towns and castles that inspired the famous novel Dracula. In addition, you can take your unusual holiday experience even further by volunteering in Eastern Europe's largest bear reserve and working with bears.Teach skiing in AustriaAustria is one of Europe's top skiing destinations. If you're looking for a more unusual way to spend a winter holiday, why not consider training to be a ski instructor there? You'll gain a qualification that is recognized worldwide, and this programme includes a guaranteed paid instructor job at a ski resort (旅游胜地) once you have finished your training.Go diving in SpainFor a European holiday with a difference, take part in a plastic cleanup project based in Barcelona, help to empty plastic waste in the Mediterranean Sea and make a difference as you travel. This volunteer project combines diving with collecting plastic or other waste from the water, alongside giving you the chance to explore the city.Explore Tuscany on horsebackTuscany, one of the best places in Europe to explore on horseback, has witnesseda sharp increase in travelers. There are various activities that combine sightseeing with basic horse riding lessons and you can stay in Renaissance villas (文艺复兴风格的别墅) and farmhouses. You don't need to have any experience for horse riding holidays, and they are a brilliant alternative to your typical guided tour.1．What does the author suggest doing in Transylvania?A.Helping to care for bears.B．Finding a job in the castle.C．Reading the novel Dracula.D．Visiting its modern buildings.2．Where can you earn money while traveling?A．Transylvania. B．Tuscany.C．Spain. D．Austria.3．What do we know about horse riding holidays in Tuscany?A．They suit experienced riders.B．They are unique to Tuscany.C．They are growing in popularity.D．They feature a typical guided tour.B[2024·广东七校联考试卷]Overlooking the Davis­Gant Varsity Soccer Field, a bed of overturned soil waits for further development. In a few years, this area will become a natural habitat and a playground for animals and residents. This peaceful area didn't appear naturally, but through planning and action taken by Catlin Gabel's Tiny Forest project launched by teacher Patrick Walsh.Forests typically take hundreds of years to mature, with four stages of growth. “Tiny forests flatten out time through the plant ing of all four layers (层)，” Walsh explained. The end result is a fast­growing, native forest in about 20 years. Over 600 plants from 43 species will be planted in the tiny forest, the first one in Oregon.Walsh was inspired to build a tiny forest after hearing about this idea, which emerged in Japan and has taken hold in North America. He shared his vision withseniors in his class. The seniors researched tiny forests and made a proposal resulting in Clean Water Services donating 60 trees and $5，000 from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Armed with these resources, Walsh and the students started working. “Something I didn't really expect was the outpouring of students' enthusiasm. Seeing students from all grades volunteered to contribute to the ‘dirty work’ really blew me away，” Walsh said.Senior Megan Cover has been at the school since the first grade. “I'll graduate after working on this project, which is surely sad, but it's really rewarding and great to be a part of this project and to do my bit. We're creating this educational space for many young kids，” Cover said.Walsh summed up his goal of the project, which is to build a place where students can enjoy and learn about nature. “The forest will obviously not solve climate change, but it would deserve the efforts if the kids think about climate change and remember the importance of reforestation and trees when they look outside at the forest.”4．What is special about tiny forests?A．They originated in North America.B．They are usually planted in schools.C．They contain various types of trees.D．They become mature in a shorter time.5．What surprised Walsh in the process of planting the tiny forest?A．The abundance of native tree species.B. Public concern about the environment.C．The active participation of students.D．Support from local organizations.6．How does Megan Cover feel about the project?A.Proud. B．Hopeful.C．Excited. D．Grateful.7．What does Walsh want the forest to function as for the students?A．A source of enjoyment.B．A reminder.C．A source of inspiration.D．A witness.C[2024·唐山市模拟]Math anxiety is far from uncommon, but too often, those who fear the subject simply avoid it. Research from The University of Chicago offers evidence for the link between math anxiety and avoidance.Studying nearly 500 adults through a computer program called the Choose­And­Solve Task (CAST), the researchers gave participants a choice between math and word problems labeled “easy” and “hard”. The easy problems were always worth two cents, while the hard problems were worth up to six cents. They also informed participants the computer task would modify the questions in the process of testing based on their abilities, enabling them to handle about 70% of the hard problems.Although participants attempted hard word problems when promised higher monetary prizes, they rarely chose to do the same for math problems. “We found we couldn't even pay math­anxious individuals to do difficult math problems，” researcher Rozek says.The findings also contradict a widely held belief that feeling anxious about math and avoiding math­related problems is rooted in being bad at math. “If you take two students good at math, the math­anxious one will do worse at math than the one that isn't anxious.”Such a mentality does more than stopping people from taking calculus courses or pursuing a career in STEM. It can affect everyday interactions with math—like leaving a tip in a restaurant. But all is not lost. Reframing their anxiety from negative to positive cou ld help math­anxious people re­engage. Giving those anxious about siting exams guidance may lead them to perform better. “Telling them if you're anxious, this is your body getting you ready to perform and focus，” Rozek says. Another path may be to create early positive experiences around math. For example, telling stories featuring math and tackling problems around the story may be helpful.8．What does the underlined word “modify” mean in Paragraph 2?A．Adjust. B．Design.C．Solve. D．Add.9．What does the study find?A.Math anxiety interacts with math avoidance.B.Word problems are often regarded as easier.C.Fear of math can outweigh higher rewards.D．People underrate their mathematical ability.10．What is a common misunderstanding about math anxiety?A．It is the cause of math avoidance.B．It causes people to be bored of math.C．It is a complex phenomenon in life.D．It results from poor math performance.11．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．Consequences of math avoidance.B．Ways to break the anx iety­avoidance link.C．Explanations for math anxiety.D.Mental barriers to mathematical achievements.D[2024·厦门市高三质量检测]The burning of coal may be falling out of favor as a means of generating heat and electricity, but that doesn't mean it no longer has valuable uses. The team of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is using coal for a new economy.The project is led by Associate Professor Andrea Fratalocchi. While reading about challenges of ending the use of coal in power generation, Fratalocchi was struck by a novel possible use for coal. “Why don't we use coal for seawater desalination (脱盐)？” Fratalocchi recalls, still excited. Capable of taking in sunlight, the black mineral adds to the list of substances in dark colors serving t he purpose, which the team is on a long­standing hunt for.Fratalocchi and his team began to explore the use of a material known ascarbonized compressed powder (压缩粉末), also CCP, which is created by breaking coal into powder, and then pressing that powder back into a solid that has more tiny holes—it can also be made into a desired shape. The team combined CCP with natural cotton fibers, producing a block which was then placed within a seawater­ containing container, with its bottom touching water surface. While sunlight heated the black surface of the block, the inside fibers helped water flow in and through the block from the bottom. When that liquid water reached the hot surface, it turned into steam which rose and condensed (冷凝) on the inside of a specially shaped cover. That condensation then flew down the cover and was collected as fresh, drinkable water. The seawater's salt content remained behind within the CCP. A simple wash was enough to remove most of it, so the material could be reused multiple times.KAUST has partnered with the Dutch start­up PERA Complexity to promote the technology. The material will see its first use in a pilot plant in Brazil. “CCP is abundant in nature and reasonable to use, besides being lightweight and highly changeable，” says team member Marcella Bonifazi. “The device's desalination rate per unit of raw material is two to three times higher than that of any other solar desalination system, but it produces fresh water at around one­third the expense of current state­of­the­art technologies.”12．What is Fratalocchi's team seeking for?A．Fibers functioning well with CCP.B．Green ways to desalinate seawater.C．Novel industrial applications of coal.D．Dark­colored materials for desalination.13．How did the team get water into the CCP device?A．By placing cotton fibers inside.B．By heating its black surface.C．By making the powder into a block.D．By installing a special cover.14．Which feature of CCP does Marcella Bonifazi stress?A．Being eco­friendly. B．Being low­cost.C．Being efficient. D．Being flexible.15．What does the text mainly talk about?A．Scientists have made a breakthrough in desalination.B．Coal finds new use in desalination technology.P is expected to be in real­life use soon.D．Drinkable water will be got from the sea.其次节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
