You fight your way into New York City. It isn’t easy. It isn’t cheap. It isn’t so friendly. So when I got to Helsinki, the capital of Finland, I was surprised at how easy it was. People were friendly and nice. They are curious about what I thought of Finland.Except the coffee and the cost of living, Helsinki and New York don’t have much in common, but I was born in the US Midwest, which was heavily influenced by North Europe. So thelife of Finland seemed familiar to that of the US.Still, I missed New York, I visited it last year, and I went to my old coffee room, still in the same place. Although it was 2023, my mind insisted that it was 2007 and I had never left. The waiter looked at me silently, reaching for the same size cup and pouring the same type of coffee I always got. Same corner, same waiter, same coffee.To the waiter, he guessed maybe I moved to another neighborhood. He wouldn’t guess from my appearance that I haven’t even been in the country. He didn’t find that there was anything different until I opened my mouth. It was something I said, I’m sure. He mistook me for one of the tourists who got lost on their way from Times Square.In my mind, this is my home. It was the place when I dreamed of my childhood, long after I left it; and now I am the same as the other tourists with the packbag.( ) 36. Helsinki is in __________.A. FinlandB. AmericaC. New YorkD. China( ) 37. Compared with Helsinki, the life in New York City is _________.A. easyB. cheapC. difficultD. nice( ) 38. The writer’s real place of birth is _________.A. New York CityB. HelsinkiC. FinlandD. the USMidwest( ) 39. How long had the writer been away from New York before he visited it last year?A. 5B. 7C.9D. 10( ) 40. What made the coffee guy think the writer to be a tourist?A. What he looked.B. What he wore.C. What he said.D. What he did.CMark began to introduce the guest speaker to the listeners, but then stopped for a while. He had forgotten her name.Barbara hid her valuable things when she went on vacation. When she came back, she couldn’t remember where she’d put them.Perhaps you’ve had such experiences like these. Most people have. But most of them haven’t realized that they have a memory problem. Neither do they know a simple but important fact: Memory can be improved. If you’ll just accept that, the following will show you how.First, relax. If you are over worried about remembering something, you’ll forget it. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad, your mind will come to believe it and you won’t remember things. When you forget something, don’t follow up with sayings like “Oh, my God! I always forget things!”Such words will have a bad result on you and your memory.But relaxing isn’t enough. To improve your memory, you’ll need to take an active role. Like your body, your memory can be made strong through exercise. Look for opportunities to exercise your memory. For example, if you’re learning a language, try to actively remember a lot of new words.If you don’t take notice of things actively, you won’tremember them. So, you can make pictures of what you see in your mind every day. For example, don’t just put your keys down! If you want to find them again, make a mind picture of the place where you’re putting them.( ) 41. The first two paragraphs just tell us ________.A. Barbara was a very rich personB. Mark often forgot his friends’namesC. examples of memory problemsD. language problems of two persons( ) 42. When you forget things, you ________.A. must be too carelessB. shouldn’t lose heart about your memoryC. must accept the factD. shouldn’t take notice of the result( ) 43. The word “opportunities”in the fifth paragraph means “________”.A. placesB. activitiesC. positionsD. chances( ) 44. According to the passage, ________ can make your memory better.A. realizing your memory problemsB. talking to your friendsC. making mind pictures of what you seeD. doing sports every day( ) 45. The purpose of the passage is to help you ________.A. to improve your memoryB. to introduce the guestC. to remember new wordsD. to forget unhappy things第二部分非选择题（共60分）四、阅读表达（每题2分，共10分）Your smartphone may seem like the centre of your entertainment, but a KentStateUniversity study shows that too much phone use is taking the fun right out of our spare time.Researchers watched a group of nearly 500 students and recorded their daily smartphone use. Those who were considered in the “high-use”group experienced more stress during their spare time than the other group.So what can we do in order to really take advantage of our spare time? We have collected the following activities that also take a few hours to complete, but best part of all, you’llimprove your health in the process（过程）.Whether you’re at home or on holiday, it’s important to disconnect from the Wi-Fi. Walking in a nature can do good to your health. As a professional（职业的）traveler. Samantha Brown put it in a recent passage, “I put my map in my back pocket, put down my phones and take a good, long walk. Just walk around.”Go to bed earlier. What can help improve your mood? Extra sleep, naturally. Getting the right number of sleep is very important to our health and studies show that we don’t get enough of it.Read a book. And let yourself get lost in a good story. Research shows that reading can reduce stress, keep your brain sharp and can even help you sleep better. Everyone should spend at least 30 minutes reading every day.Putting pen to paper is a good exercise. Try writing down your thoughts. Writing has a lot of health advantages. Besides, writing down your thoughts may even help clear your mind.

Here are some key mistakes and some tips.■Sitting for a long timeSo much homework and many computer games make students sit for several hours without standing or walking around. Because of long time sitting, some students have got diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease (疾病).Tips: ·Get up and out of your chair for about five minutes every hour.·Walk over to a person instead of sending e-mails or text messages.■Eating irregularlySome students develop unhealthy eating habits. Fast food becomes more often. Heavy studying and stress keep students from eating meals regularly.Tips: ·Eat breakfast with eggs at the start of every day.·Never buy unhealthy food like fast food, sweets and candies.·Have three meals a day at the right time.■Sleeping lessIf some students don’t get enough sleep, the smooth cycle of our biological clock (生物钟) is broken.

Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don't have a yard,” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said. Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof (屋顸). When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.“What a wonderful garden! “ said Maria.Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside. You just have to be creative ! "28.

What is the best title for this passage?A. A Creative LadyB. A Rooftop GardenC. An Empty RoofD. A Special BuildingCDo you have brown hair? Are you taller than other kids your age? These characteristics were decided before you were born. You got your traits from your parents. They passed their traits on to you through genes (基因).Genes carry codes (代码) for blue eyes or brown eyes. Genes say how tall you will get and what color hair you will have. You got half of your genes from your mother. You got half of your genes from your father. So you have your own set of genes. Each person gets different genes for each body part. That is why you look like but not exactly like your brother or sister.A dominant (显性的) gene shows up most of the time. Brown eyes are dominant over bluc eyes. A recessive (降性的) gene shows up less often. Light hair comes from a recessive gene. Dark hair is more common. Look at the eye color and hair color of the people around you. You will see that this is true.Genes help to make you who you are. But they don't tell the whole story. Your genes may help you to be fast and strong. But you still need to learn how to run or swim or skate wel.31. The underlined word “traits” in Paragraph 1 means________.A. charactcristicsB. expericncesC. achievementsD. possibilities32.

Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth, sometimes you can’t fly at all.We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we’d be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weatherIt turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7. But even when we were in the air, there was still a chance we wouldn’t be able to fly the whole day.Day 4: Wednesday December 3After waking up in the Antarctic for the first time today I can understand why everybody who comes here falls in love with the place. It is really beautiful.We’re staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around. It s about minus 20C today, which for me is very cold, but the regulars(常客) here are often seen walking around in T-shirts !Day 5: Thursday December 4I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic. I’m told it’s a bit colder today, about minus 50C , but it’s not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the bas have to do a spccial training course before we're allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.Day 7: Saturday December 6Not a cloud in the sky and it’s warm enough to sit outside (in a jacket).The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery (凤景) changes every day.At first I thought I was going mad. I’d step outside in the morning and think, “I’m sure that big mountain of ice wasn’t there yesterday.” It’s because the sea ice is always moving—slowly thankfully !34. Lizzie sat outside wearing a jacket on_______.A. TuesdayB. WednesdayC. ThursdayD. Saturday35. What could stop Lizzie from leaving Stanley for Rothera?A. Strong winds.B. Thick clouds.C. Mountains of ice.D. Low temperatures.36. How did Lizzie feel during her stay in the Antarctic?A. Afraid.B. Nervous.C. Amazed.D. Bored.37. What impressed Lizzie most about Rothera was that _______.A. people walked around in T-shirtsB. there was a special training courseC. the weather was sometimes warmD. the scenery changed every day笫四部分词汇检测根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。

Everyone knows that water is very important for keeping healthy. But how much water should you drink each day?

On a hot day, people need to drink more water than on a cold day. It also depends on the food we eat. Some food has a lot of water in it, such as fruit and vegetables. How much water do you need each day? It is hard to say. You should drink when you are thirsty.BThere is a new plan in England to teach children well.

Some are large and beautiful, and some are no more than tiny green or greyish green plants partly dried out, living on dead trees and fallen branches.All know that orchids need neither earth nor decayed leaves and look upon it as the most troublesome of all plants to grow. Many people fancy that orchids live only in hot, damp jungles and are ever green. But from the tropics (热带的) to the land of snow and ice, from sea level to high mountain top-orchids may be found in all conditions. Even as far north as Sweden and Norway, there are many kinds of wild orchids.The information that orchids can be grown in warm houses and glass houses is not new. The orchid house where the plants are grown has been specially made for them, with its temperature controlled by artificial heating. When in flower, these plants are a beautiful sight.It is said that there used to be an Englishman who grew orchids in the ice-house. He made the conditions suit the plants, just as the person who has an orchid room in the house.One kind of orchid has such a strong dislike for water that it likes to grow in a small basket so that the roots can get the air. Different kind of orchids have different temperature requirements. Some like it hot and some like it cold. Most of them like a certain amount of light throughout the year.52.

The water drops 3,212 feet from the top of the Auyantepui mountain into Devil's Canyon in Venezuela. In season, about two inches of water pour over the canyon walls every second.Angel Falls was discovered by accident in 1933. Jimmy Angel, a US pilot, was trying to find a gold mine in the area. He missed the site and crash-landed on top of Auyantepui. After his plane landed safely on top of the mountain, he and his crew members made their way down to civilization by foot, taking two weeks to find a small village. Three years later, when Jimmy Angel told people of the waterfall, it was named after him. Thousands of tourists visit this natural wonder each year.The longest falls in the world are Niagara Falls on the border of Canada and the United States. Hundreds of millions of visitors come to see the falls. No one knows how the falls were formed, but some people say the Niagara River changed course thousands of years ago.The biggest falls in the world is Canada's Montmorency Falls. The water drops 245 feet below the cliffs of Mont-morency, 10 miles northeast of Quebec City. The falls are wider than they are in height, with a 150-feet width.Waterfalls occur when rivers flow over cliffs and create sheer drops. Waterfalls formed this way are called true waterfalls. Not all waterfalls aretrue waterfalls. A terrace waterfall is a waterfall that spills over the side of the cliff into steps, like a staircase. Other waterfalls flow quietly down a slope and resemble a sheet of clear glass.57. What were Jimmy Angel and his crew members doing when they found Angel Falls？A.

Most autistic patients have difficulty talking with other people or doing things. However, some of the autistic people have amazing abilities. For example, some can memorize many things and some can do calculations really fast.Raymond Babbitt in the 1988 film Rain Man is an example. The character in the film was based on Kim Peek, a man from the USA．Peek couldn't switch on a light or put his clothes on by himself. But his memory was so amazing that he could remember almost anything. He could memorize every road, place and distance on maps. He could even remember almost every word in thousands of books. His way of reading was more amazing. Peek could read two pages at the same time in just eight to ten seconds. He read the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye.Scientists still don't know for sure why some autistic people have special talent after they have done a lot of research. There is one possible explanation. When certain parts of the brain are damaged! by autism, other parts of the brain might get stronger. Therefore special abilities were born.But not all people with autism have amazing abilities. In fact, autistic people with amazing abilities are rare (罕有的) and the abilities cannot be trained. According to research, only ten percent of autistic people show any signs of special talent.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填涂在答题卡相应位置。
