It has made history in Mexico. Having studied in the institution’s law school for five years, she received her law degree from Universidad Autonoma de Zacatecas.In Mexico, there is no bar exam—getting a law degree is enough to be a lawyer. However, rather than defending people in the court of law, Espino aims to use her legal knowledge to improve conditions for people with disabilities.For Espino, becoming a lawyer was a long-time dream. Espino grew up with a strong family network including her parents and three siblings (兄弟姐妹), which has been the foundation of her educational and professional careers. In the classroom, she also received helpful accommodations to enter high school like being able to study independently for the entrance exam.After graduating, Espino applied for a university and stood out in the admission exam. However, the school’s headmaster refused her application despite her excellent grades in the exam, because the school lacked the conditions for a person with Down syndrome.Moved by her determined spirit, a professor offered to help Espino. Throughout her five years of college, the teacher accompanied Espino to all of her classes, helped her study, and prepared her for exams.Espino’s career as an advocate for people with disabilities predates (早于) her pursuing a degree. She often shares her story to bring light to people with disabilities. She is also a talented artist, holding several exhibitions.As for the future, Espino has a very clear image of what she wants to achieve. She said, “I am fanatical about the law and I want to ensure all people who live with a disability can occupy decision-making spaces to contribute to improving their conditions.”4．What does Espino expect to do in the future?A．To give a hand to the disabled.B．To cure people of Down syndrome.C．To attach importance to human’s equal rights.D．To inspire the disabled to learn legal knowledge.5．What happened to Espino when applying for a university at first?A．She moved the headmaster.B．She lost her parents’ support.C．She was turned down by the school.D．She did badly in the admission exam. 6．What does the underlined word “fanatical” in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Uncertain.B．Annoyed.C．Passionate.D．Curious. 7．Which words can best describe Espino?A．Humble and wise.B．Generous and brave.C．Humorous and hard-working.D．Strong-willed and caring.In 1973, the National Hurricane Center introduced the Saffir-Simpson scale (created by Herbert Saffir and Robert Simpson), a five-category rating system that classified hurricanes by wind intensity. At the bottom of the scale was Category 1, for storms with sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph. At the top was Category 5, for disasters with winds of 157 mph or more.In the half-century since the scale first appeared, land and ocean temperatures have steadily risen as a result of greenhouse gas emissions (排放). Hurricanes have become more intense, with stronger winds and heavier rainfall.With disastrous storms regularly blowing past 157 mph, some scientists argue, the Saffir-Simpson scale no longer conveys the threat the biggest hurricanes present. The strongest hurricane recorded over the Pacific Ocean has a sustained wind of 215 mph. “That’s faster than a racing car. It’s a new and dangerous world,” said Michael F. Wehner, a co-author of a Category 6 paper.“The Saffir-Simpson scale is not all that good for warning the public of the danger of a storm,” Wehner said. The category scale measures only sustained wind speeds, which is just one of the threats a major storm presents. The rest are storm surges (风暴潮), flooding and big tides.But the National Hurricane Center has no plans to introduce a Category 6, primarily because it is already trying “to not emphasize the scale very much,” said Brennan, the National Hurricane Center director. Other meteorologists said that’s the right call. “I don’t see the value init at this time.”Simplistic as they are, Herbert Saffir and Robert Simpson’s categories are the first things many people think of when they try to grasp the scale of a storm. In that sense, the scale’s persistence (持续存在) over the years helps people understand how much the climate has changed since its introduction. “What the Saffir-Simpson scale is good for is quantifying, showing that the most intense storms are becoming more intense because of climate change,” Wehner said. “It’s not like it used to be.”8．Why does Wehner suggest a new rating system?A．To describe more intense hurricanes.B．To control greenhouse gas emissions.C．To avoid the threat of hurricanes timely.D．To better understand the nature of hurricanes.9．What does Brennan think of the Category 6?A．Primary.B．Needless.C．Valuable.D．Incomplete. 10．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the Saffir-Simpson scale?A．Its simplicity.B．Its long history.C．Its positive role.D．Its great change. 11．What can be the best title for this text?A．A New Rating System Is ApprovedB．Climate Change Caused More HurricanesC．Extreme Weather Has Become a New NormD．A Bigger Number Might Be Needed for HurricanesThe small hobby of chocolate is becoming a more costly one. Rapidly increasing prices for cocoa beans recently hit a record $12,000 a tonne: roughly four times last year’s price. Many think they will go higher. That may put small specialist producers out of business. Yet it is bringing little reward to struggling growers.The immediate cause is a bad harvest in West Africa—which produces 70% of the world’s beans—reflecting El Niño-linked weather patterns and disease. Major processing plants in Ghana and Ivory Coast, the main growers, have stopped or reduced operations because they cannot afford the beans. But underlying the crisis are longer-term issues including the climate crisis and theinability of farmers to invest in production due to their low incomes.Many West African growers are being forced out of the business after years of punishingly low returns for their work and—as trees come to the end of their life cycle—often selling land to gold miners, resulting in severe environmental degradation (恶化). Latin American farmers are rushing to plant cocoa due to the higher prices, abandoning other crops and deforesting new areas. But the likelihood, if production booms and the system does not change, is that by the time their new trees bear fruit, prices may be falling again.As serious as the situation looks, the attention demanded by the rocketing price of cocoa, and the introduction of EU Deforestation Regulation offer an opportunity. Faced with global heating, increasing conflict and energy price instability, depending on the free market is a poor bet. Treating food issues as financial instruments hurts farmers, destroys forests and worsens the instability of supply.The solution in this case is a commitment to stable minimum prices for cocoa farmers and long-term contracts. This would help to lift growers out of poverty and, in doing so, tackle other problems. Sustainable production is essential, and will even benefit consumers in the long run. It can’t be achieved by letting the free market run its course.12．What might be the consequence of rising cocoa prices?A．Some small producers will fail.B．Cocoa farmers will benefit greatly.C．Fewer people will eat chocolate.D．Cocoa production will increase.13．What will happen if more Latin American farmers plant cocoa?A．Other crops will boost production.B．Cocoa prices will go down.C．The environment will be improved.D．Old cocoa trees will be abandoned. 14．What is the author’s attitude towards the free market approach to cocoa problems?A．Defensive.B．Concerned.C．Optimistic.D．Indifferent. 15．What does the author suggest in order to solve the coco a problem?A．Allowing the free market to work.B．Giving cocoa farmers more freedom.C．Helping cocoa growers out of poverty.D．Promising a steady guaranteed price.Want your flower garden to look like those at the Botanical Garden? Here are some tips.How do you arrange a flower garden?Like most things, your best bet is to keep it simple. Use large blocks of color in your home flower garden. Keep in mind that annuals require care and even the hardiest need to be watered and fertilized. 16How often do you need to water a flower garden?Water your flower garden immediately after planting annuals, and keep an eye on them for the next week or so. 17 If it rains, you may still need to water them because sometimes it doesn’t soak (浸透) the ground. If you’re unsure, stick your finger in the soil at the base of the plant, and feel if it is wet or dry.18Visit your local garden store that sells well-grown annuals that are in either flats or 4-inch pots. Most of the time the vigorous (茁壮的) plants that do well are in 4-inch pots. Growing from seed can be fun in the back of the garden, but when you are really counting on color, buy plants.How do you prepare the soil before planting flowers?19 You may have to apply some efforts to get the dirt in good enough shape to plant annuals. The most important tip is to dig up your soil with a shovel (铲) to make sure it’s loose and soft. Try for 6 to 8 inches deep. 20 If you have to chip away at the soil to plant your flowers, you are in for an uphill battle in which you will not win.A．What flowers are best for a flower garden?B．So your flower bed should be near water outlets.C．If you can’t dig with your hands, the soil is not ready.D．Once the annuals are established, water two times a week.E．Should you plant seeds or use potted plants for a flower garden?F．Soil preparation starts with knowing the soil type that’s native to your area.G．If you add organic matter occasionally, your garden should be in good condition.二、完形填空Going into my Ph.D．program, I loved to communicate science to the public. But 21 consumed most of my time. I often worked past nightfall, and my weekends were 22 absorbed by preparing experiments, gathering data, or catching up on the seemingly 23scientific papers.I desperately needed a 24 , so I jumped at an opportunity to spend a weekend with friends.

Well, that is where my job as an instrument operations enginecr comes in. My job consists of planning,generating, and operating scientific instruments in-flight. I am grateful for having worked on missions at Saturn, the Moon, and our own planet Earth.When I was a high-schooler, I was unsure of what college I wanted to attend, or what major I wanted to choose. After recciving an email from a college called Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), I decided to apply to a summer program they were offering will the encouragement of my mom. After participating in that program, I knew that MIT was the right university for me. The passionate students and boundless opportunities developed a feeling of belonging in me that in me to apply and eventually get accepted.The most exciting and fulfilling part of being an engineer is that I am able to work on projects that benefit humanity. When people think of the space industry, they picture the outer reaches of our solar system. What they may not imagine is the great body of work being done to study our own home — Earth. I am thankful to have a career that allows me to commit myself to that responsibility.The highlight of my career has been witnessing the end of the Cassini mission to Saturn. Some of the people on the team had been working on the mission for longer than I had been alive, but they still treated me as one of their own. I was given the opportunity to operate the cameras that would catch breathtaking images of the planet. And when the Cassini spacecraft had run out of fuel, I quickly learned that it was not just the end of the mission, but the end of a team. The night we watched with bittersweet longing as its signal faded to nothing is something that 1 will always keep in my memories. And while Cassini will be remembered for its historic contributions, what I will remember it for is the team it brought together.My friends often ask why a girl could achieve all these. I always grew up a big fan of fiction.1 read the Harry Potter books and loved anything fantasy. I realized that a common theme of hero stories is that the hero must always make a choice to start their adventure. If you don’t pick up the sword in your own story because you are afraid of what may happen next, you risk not having a story at all.4．Why did the author apply to MIT?A．The majors in MIT interested her.B．Her mother urged her to go to MIT.C．She set this goal as a high-schooler,D．A summer program made her love MIT.5．What does the author think about her occupation?A．Her job can be be finished easily.B．It’s hard for a girl to have such a career.C．She is proud to work for human well-being.D．The Hany Potter books contribute to her work.6．What does the author value most in the Cassini mission?A．Its historic contributions.B．Breathtaking images of the planet.C．The teammates that work alongside.D．The opportunity to operate the cameras. 7．What does this text probably come from?A．A science magazine.B．A biography.C．A memoir.D．A profile.The California sea otter (海獭), once hunted to the edge of extinction, has staged a thrilling comeback in the last century. Now, scientists have discovered that the otters’ success story has led to something just as remarkable: the restoration of their declining coastal marsh (沼泽) habitat.Elkhorn Slough, a coastal marsh within Monterey Bay, had been experiencing severe damage. The root cause was a growing population of shore crabs, which fed heavily on the marsh plants, weakening the structural integrity of the habitat. Coastal marshes like these are not only natural defenses against storm waves but also serve as important carbon storage areas and water-cleaning systems.The conservation-driven comeback of the sea otter has been crucial. California’s coastlines were once alive with sea otters. Sadly, they were nearly wiped out at the hands of fur traders. In the 1980s, conservation efforts aided these otters in re-occupying large areas of their former range. Now, Elkhorn Slough has the highest concentration of sea otters in California, with a population of about 100. By naturally feasting on crabs, the otters have helped a significant regrowth of plant life. Brent Hughes, a scientist working alongside Angelini, led a three-year study. Their findings were clear: in areas with sea otters, crab numbers fell markedly. This led to a resurgence in plant growth, which in turn stabilized the soil and lowered the rate of soil washing away.As the sea otter population continues to restore, their positive impact on coastal ecosystems is likely to increase. It not only showcases the sea otter as a central species—a species that has asignificant effect on its natural environment—but also highlights the essential nature of top predators (捕食者) in preserving ecological harmony. “My honest reaction was—this could become a classic in the literature,” says scientist Lekelia Jenkins. She reveals marsh restoration also helps people by reducing flooding. “Suddenly, sea otters go from just cute things we like to something that can protect our livelihoods and our properties.”8．What change did the disappearance of sea otters bring about?A．Fewer predatory crabs.B．More coastal plant life.C．Better water-cleaning effect.D．Worse coastal ecological balance.9．What does the underlined word “resurgence” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Barrier.B．Advancement.C．Expansion.D．Revival. 10．What is the author’s purpose in quoting Lekelia Jenkins?A．To highlight the importance of coastal marshes.B．To introduce a new research study on sea otters.C．To demonstrate the practical benefits of sea otters.D．To emphasize the need for increased conservation efforts.11．What message is conveyed from sea otters’ impact?A．The necessity for controlled hunting.B．The interconnectedness of the ecosystem.C．The drawbacks of wildlife reintroduction.D．The need for human intervention in nature.We are a social animal. Indeed, it is our sociality — such as the ability to make sense of each other, to communicate, to work cooperatively and, finally, to create culture — that marks us off from other animal species.But then why are we everywhere striving to increase our isolation and limit our contact with others? As musician David Byrne argues in an essay published last month, it is a striking fact about the new technologies that have so come to shape our lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit our need for human contact. Online shopping? Check. Automated checkout? Check. Ride hail apps? Check.Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, known as“autonomous operation”. This is perhaps even more pronounced with new technologies on the horizon. Take the MOOC, the teacher less virtual classroom. As Byrne notes, this is meant to deliver the values of a learning environment without, well, without the environment — you get to stay at home — no teacher, but also, no fellow students.Byrne isn’t claiming we are consciously choosing to isolate ourselves. We shop online because it is convenient. The absence of contact with others is a side-effect. Maybe even an unavoidable one, as one of the things that makes online shopping so easy is precisely the absence of contact with other people.But Bryne’s thought is that whatever our intention, the tendency of our tech to isolate us may be a feature, not a bug. His hypothesis is that we actually, at some level, crave (渴望) the increased isolation and we are actually making technologies to satisfy impulses that, in some way, go beyond — or against — our social nature. But I wonder, is this really new?Even if we are social by nature, and do everything we can to embed ourselves socially, the need to find ways to be alone is, well, nothing new. It’s also striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the old days, books, newspapers, TV: nowadays, the latest apps — also connect us. We read about each other. What we read gives us information to share with each other.I am well aware of the data that shows the more time you spend on social media, the sadder and more isolated and envious you feel of others. But how novel is the isolating effect of social media? Being there reminds me a lot of what it was like to be social in high school — you have a vivid sense of your status and your standing in relation to others, and you have to deal with that.This may be isolating, sure. But it’s the isolating face of the social lives we’ve always had. It is isolating because of the ways technology brings us into real contact with others, not because it removes that contact.I wonder whether more isolation is a real option, after all.12．How does musician David Byme think of new technologies?A．New technologies facilitate our lives.B．New technologies weaken our sociality.C．New technologies distinguish humans from other species.D．New technologies enhance cooperation between humans.13．Which of the following best reflects “autonomous operation?A．Getting a toothbrush via a hotel delivery robot.B．Teaching mom how to establish a smart home.C．Seeking help by calling human customer services.D．Having an online meeting at home with colleagues.14．Which of the following might the author agree?A．Technology offers fresh insights into our social status.B．Actions seemingly isolating can bond people.C．Social platforms help bring people closer.D．Social media has come to define our life.15．What would be the best title for the passage?A．What Technologies Do to Human Nature?B．Do Technologies Shape Our Lives?C．How Isolation Changes with Connection?D．Can We Erase Human Element?Once people finish reading a book, they are likely to have an impulse to write about it. Those who read and write a lot may want to become book reviewers. 16 . But most have at least a high school diploma and, in many cases, they have a college degree in literature or a related field. For professional book reviewers, an English or writing degree is also a popular choice.It generally takes much patience to become a book reviewer. Also, it’s important to learn much about book reviewing ahead of time. Read as many book reviews as possible to get an idea of the tone and content of the reviews. And remember book reviews are a little different from book critiques. 17 .If you want to become a book reviewer, it’s necessary to determine what type of book you wish to review. Most book reviewers specialize in one specific type. 18 . Whichever type you want to review, you should truly enjoy reading it and be relatively knowledgeable about common themes and plot methods.19 . Even if the reviews are never published, it’s important to have pieces of book reviews. Most editors won’t hire a reviewer without any pieces of book reviews. It may be easier to start writing for a university newspaper or a local newspaper while you’re still in college.Another option is to write reviews and post them on a blog. Thus, you prepare yourself for becoming a book reviewer.Most book reviewers do not work for one particular medium and are paid per piece.20 . In exchange, they will receive free books to review, sometimes ahead of their publication dates. It can be difficult to get started, as with any freelance writing career, but for someone who enjoys reading and writing about books, it is an excellent choice.A．And the salary can be highB．Some simply write book reviews on a voluntary basisC．Interestingly, there are different types of book reviewersD．It can be popular fiction, historical fiction or anything elseE．They are traditionally less formal compared with the latterF．It’s impossible to become a reviewer without writing some reviewsG．There are no specific educational requirements for becoming book reviewers二、完形填空In Favour of Simple WritingDo you edit text messages carefully before sending them? If so, you may be the kind of person who takes pride in 21 even the simplest message. If you do not, you may see yourself as a go-getter, one who values excitement and speed over22 : get it done decently now rather than perfectly later.People are constantly receiving messages, from the mailbox to the inbox to the text-message alert. What to read, what to skim (略读) and what to ignore are decisions that nearly everyone has to make dozens of times a day. A new book titled All Readers are Busy Nowadays makes the argument for being the careful kind of 23 , even in informal lines. The authors also present well-established 24 that have long been prized in guides to writing.Take “less is more”. Most books on writing well advocate the advice to 25 needless words. The authors, however, have 26 the idea. In an email to thousands of school-board members asking them to take a survey, cutting the count from127 to 49 words almost 27 the response rate.Keeping messages to a 28 idea—or as few as absolutely needed—helps ensure that they will be read, remembered and acted on. 29 the number of the available options has the same effect, too. A link in an email, 30 , attracted 50% more clicks when presented alone than when it was sent alongside a second additional link.Syntax (句法) and 31 matter, too. It is more 32 to adopt short and active sentences, with common words familiar to everyone. From Facebook posts to online-travel reviews, even brief, informal pieces of writing that follow these rules get more likes and shares.If everyone is a busy reader, everyone is a busy writer, too. That may make it tempting to sent as many messages as 33 as possible and hope for the best. But from essays to text messages organizing dinner plans, devoting time to the needs of readers has provable 34 . If you are so busy that you write an undisciplined message which readers scan, ignore and delete, then you might as well have not 35 it at all.21．A．conveying B．understanding C．crafting D．sending 22．A．care B．quantity C．simplicity D．technology 23．A．reader B．poster C．learner D．writer 24．A．structures B．principles C．aims D．alternatives 25．A．remove B．ignore C．reconsider D．interpret 26．A．conveyed B．translated C．tested D．shaped 27．A．lowered B．affected C．doubled D．maintained 28．A．basic B．positive C．definite D．single 29．A．Recording B．Reducing C．Counting D．Estimating 30．A．in comparison B．after all C．for instance D．in particular 31．A．word-choice B．pattern-design C．target-setting D．platform-selection 32．A．difficult B．suitable C．challenging D．common 33．A．carefully B．often C．politely D．quickly 34．A．outcomes B．points C．figures D．benefits 35．A．received B．written C．read D．answered三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

山东省潍坊市大联考2024-2025学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Mathematics for Computer ScienceThis subject offers an introduction to discrete mathematics(离散数学)oriented toward computer science and engineering.Course Meeting TimesLectures:3 sessions/week, 1. 5 hour/session Problem Sets (psets)Problem sets account for 20% of the final grade. Making a reasonable effort on the problem sets is, for most students, crucial for mastering the course material. Problem sets are designed to be completed in at most 3 hours; the time is monitored through student reports. Online Feedback ProblemsOnline problems to be completed before most class meetings are posted on the class website. These consist of straightforward questions that provide useful feedback about the assigned material. Some students prefer to try the online problems before reading the text or watching videos as an advance guide to going over the material; that’s fine. Watching designated videos, or at least looking at the lecture-slide handouts, is generally helpful but optional.Like team problem-solving in class, online problems are graded only on participation: Students receive full credit as long as they try the problem, even if their answer is wrong. Online feedback problems account for 10% of the final grade. Midterm ExamsThree 80-minute midterm exams will be given. The midterm exams each account for 15%of the final grade.Midterm questions will typically be variations of prior problems from class and psets, and the best way to prepare is to review on the published solutions to these problems. The first exam covers all previous weeks’ material;subsequent exams focus on the material after the previous exam. Final ExamThere will be a three-hour final exam. This exam is worth 25% of the final class grade. The final exam will cover the entire subject with somewhat greater emphasis on material from after Midterm 3. Most exam questions will be variants of problems assigned during the term(psets,class, midterm, and online). It may include a few questions which combine topics that were originally covered separately.1．What determines students’ grade in Online Feedback Problems?A．Active involvement.B．Submission time.C．Accuracy of answers.D．Completion of assignments2．What is the main focus of the final exam?A．Variants of problem sets.B．Combined topics in class.C．The content after midterm exams.D．The whole-term course materials. 3．Which of the following weighs the most in the final grade?A．Final Exam.B．Midterm Exams.C．Problem Sets.D．Online Feedback ProblemsIt all started with a simple question;“Can I paint your portrait (肖像)?”In the summer of 2015, Brian Peterson was reading the book Love Does, about the power of love in action, when his quiet was disturbed by a homeless man. Inspired by the book, Peterson made an unexpected decision: He was going to introduce himself. In that first conversation, Peterson learned that the man’s name was Matt Faris who failed to pursue a career in music and ended up being homeless.“I saw beauty on the face of a man who hadn’t shaved in probably a year, had overgrown fingernails, and probably hadn’t had a shower in close to a year. ”Even though Peterson hadn’t pioked up a paintbrush in about eight years, he asked if he could paint Faris’s portrait. Faris said yes.Peterson’s connection with Faris led him to form Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization focused on befriending and painting portraits of members of the community who are unhoused. Working from a black-and-white photo of the subject, Peterson chooses colors inspired by the subject’s personality and life story, creating an impressive portrait.Peterson sells the striking artwork, signed by both subject and artist, dividing the proceeds and putting half into what he calls a“love account”for his model. He then helps people use the money to get back on their feet. Many of Peterson’s new friends use the donations to secure immediate necessities. But Peterson has learned not to make assumptions about what a personneeds most. “I’ve made a mistake thinking I knew what people wanted, ” he says, “but why don’t we just ask them?”Peterson has discovered that there’s more to the finished products than the money they bring to someone who’s down and out. The buyers tend to connect to the story of the person in the painting, finding similarities and often friendship with someone they might have otherwise overlooked. “People often tell me, ‘I was the one that would cross the street. But I see homeless people differently now, ’ ”Peterson says.4．What brought Peterson and Faris together?A．Beauty on Faris’ face.B．Inspiration from a book.C．Peterson’s passion for art.D．Faris’ suffering in his life.5．What does the underlined word “mistake” in paragraph 5 refer to?A．Selling the homeless’ portraits for profits.B．Giving instant necessities to the homeless.C．Asking the homeless for their needs directly.D．Taking what the homeless want for granted.6．What does Peterson imply in the last paragraph?A．The homeless are gaining more concern.B．The life of the homeless is different now.C．Buyers value friendship with the homeless.D．Figures in Peterson’s paintings are popular.7．What can we learn from this text?A．A good model is key to a fine artwork.B．An expected decision makes a great artist.C．A picture really is worth a thousand words.D．Each unfortunate person has his own misfortune.The Malagasy baobab tree, whose thick trunks and tiny branches dot Madagascar’s landscape, should not, by rights, have survived to the present day. Scientists believe that its large seeds were once spread by the giant tortoises and lemur monkeys that wandered the island. When these species went extinct over one thousand years ago owing to human activity, the baobab treeshould have disappeared too. It did not. Seheno Andriantsaralaza at the University of Antananarivo and Onja Razafindratsima at the University of California, now think they may know the reason why.Together with their colleagues, the scientists monitored 15 tree canopies (树冠) in a western region of Madagascar, to identify any animals that might have claimed the role of baobab-seed spread. The researchers also set up camera traps around seed-containing fruits lying on the ground, and searched any faeces (粪便) that they encountered along the way for the presence of seeds.They report in the journal Biotropica that a native rodent (啮齿动物) known as the western bunch-tailed rat was caught on camera handling whole fruits on four occasions. Although there was no footage of the rat breaking the fruits open, the team did chance upon 13 fruits that had been chewed into and had their seeds removed. Though the bite marks were not clear enough to identify an initiator, this was clear evidence that a seed- distributing animal was out there. They then found the ecological equivalent of a smoking gun:baobab seeds in seven different piles of bush-pig faces.While the finding is important in its own right, it also provides valuable evidence that introduced species may not be entirely harmful. Madagascar’s pigs, for example, though not native, have made themselves essential to the survival of truly native species. Similar relationships are suspected to hold in South America between rabbits native to Europe and plants with no seed distributors. For Dr Andriantsaralaza, that suggests the full ecological role of introduced species should be considered before talk of extinction begins.8．What made scientists think the baobab tree should have disappeared?A．The extinction of its seed spreader.B．The destruction of human activitiesC．The inadaptation of the baobab tree.D．The increase of its natural enemies. 9．What are camera traps used for?A．Seeking seed-containing fruits.B．Tracking the footprints of seeds.C．Recording the animals’ activities.D．Monitoring the baobab tree canopies. 10．Which is most probably the seed-eater according to the report?A．The giant tortoise B．The bunch-tailed rat.C．The European rabbit.D．The bush-pig.11．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To introduce a new way to protect the baobab tree.B．To show non-native species are not always harmful.C．To compare different kinds of seed-distributing methods.D．To explain the importance of protecting endangered species.The concepts of delayed satisfaction, self-control, and self-regulation are often used interchangeably and inconsistently. The ability to delay an impulse (冲动) for an immediate reward to receive a more favorable reward at a later time is the standard definition of delayed satisfaction.Studies show that delayed satisfaction is one of the most effective personal characteristics of successful people. People who learn how to manage their need to be satisfied in the moment develop more in their careers, relationships, health, and finances than people who give in to it.Being able to delay satisfaction isn’t the easiest skill to acquire. It involves feeling dissatisfied, which is why it seems impossible for people who haven’t learned to control their impulses. Choosing to have something now might feel good, but making the effort to have discipline and manage your impulses can result in bigger or better rewards in the future. Over time, delayed satisfaction will improve your self-control and ultimately help you achieve your long-term goals faster.The Seinfeld Strategy is one of several helpful self-satisfaction techniques you can use to put off satisfaction for longer periods of time. Every day that you delay satisfaction and avoid temptation (诱惑) , you cross it off your calendar. After a few days, this creates a chain. This strategy works well for people who enjoy gamification (游戏化). If you find it satisfying to keep the chain going, you’re less likely to give in to temptation.Do you find yourself going back to your temptations without thinking about it?If this is the case, you can practice mindfulness to become more aware of what you do. When you notice yourself doing something out of habit, stop for a moment. Ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing. Take some time to analyze how you’re feeling. Pay attention to the details. Take a moment of mindulness to interrupt your autopilot every time this happens. The more you practice this, the more you’ll break the habit of going for instant satisfaction.12．What is delayed satisfaction?A．Making quick decisions.B．Giving in to desires instantly.C．Immediate rewards for impulses.D．Postponing rewards for better outcomes. 13．Why is delayed satisfaction hard to attain?A．It can lead to missed opportunities B．It’s bad for achieving long-term goals.C．It’s impossible to resist the inner needs D．It’s a comfort to possess something at once. 14．What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A．The complexity of the Seinfeld Strategy B．An example of self-discipline techniques.C．A method of practicing delayed satisfaction.D．The effectiveness of keeping the chain going.15．What does the author suggest people do for returning temptations?A．Ignore useless details.B．Get rid of old bad habits.C．Concentrate on true inner wants.D．Cancel temptations from the calendar.Facing hard things is, well, hard. Sometimes we are forced to simply shift, such as with a loss or failure; however, much of the time, we may recognize the difficulties underneath that need attention but feel too overwhelmed to address them. 16 The difficulties might be an outdated habit, a troubling memory or a long- ignored conflict.Some individuals fool themselves into thinking there really is not a problem. It’s like someone trying to hold active mice under a blanket by holding down the edges of the moving blanket. Pulling back the blanket to let the mice out is needed, despite being terrifying. Once the mice are released, there may be further challenges to get them out of the house. 17 People often encounter similar problems. Avoiding or leaving the situation appears to fix the problem but fails to tackle the underlying cause. Rather than repeatedly cutting weeds, getting down on the ground and pulling the roots is more effective. Facing issues is like uncovering roots for new beginnings to blossom. 1819 It feels like a balled-up mess of wires. Pulling hard at only one wire actually tightens the knot. We have to take a calmer look and pull apart each wire one at a time. We can’t expect the wires to loosen or unwind themselves. 20 Nevertheless, once they have been freed, they can sometimes be separated, put aside, and used as needed. A．They are just there and part of the chaos.B．And humans are masters of avoidance and denial.C．The overall benefits from tough work enable growthD．Making changes in one’s life is hard and complicated.E．Sadly, it often worsens when we approach it with anger.F．However, problems cannot be faced if they are not first recognized.G．Quick fixes might provide relief in the short term but often not in the long term.二、完形填空Madeline sat on her bed and tried to write.
