The men of influence in our lives are our fathers, brothers, grandfathers, uncles, and friends and they play an important role in our lives. They lead by example, teaching us how to move physically through our world, how to be strong in the face of adversity, how to be wise, and how to provide for ourselves and our families.
My dad taught me how to have natural fun, playing baseball in the middle of the street, in his stocking feet. Today my dad continues to influence me in positive ways. He has faced a challenging health problem over the past few months and has carried on with his life in much the same way as he did before his illness, going about his daily business a bit slower and needing to take more rests but still living his life the way he wishes to.
My grandfather taught me the value of being trusted. My father-in-law influenced my life in a different way. He was quiet, loving and a man of power. When he spoke, I listened, as he did not speak unless he had something to say.
My loving husband has encouraged me to be strong and independent, to think for myself, and not to look to him for permission. My husband has also taught me to adapt with him to the ever-changing reality of his journey with illness, and he has met each one with courage and dignity. I have learned much from the men who have had an influence on my life. For all that I have learned and for the role they played and continue to play in my life I am forever thankful.

After high school English teacher Larry Abrams started his teaching career in a far suburb outside of Philadelphia, he found he taught in a book desert (荒漠). Many of the kids in school simply struggled (挣扎) with reading and then writing .
In 2017, when one of his students told him she had no book to read to her 2-year-old daughter, Abrams took action. He put forward a call to friends and family asking for gently used children’s books, and in no time, he had more than 1, 000 of them. He began handing out the books to young moms and local elementary schools. That was the start of his nonprofit, BookSmiles, which has since collected, sorted, and handed out hundreds of thousands of books throughout New Jersey and the Philadelphia area — and will soon reach 1 million.
BookSmiles calls on people to help collect books and drop them off in the group’s large collection boxes, which are painted with literary-themed artwork and put outside local businesses, houses of worship, schools, and people’s homes. Books are often handed out through teachers, who come to the book bank and choose as many books as they want.
Larry Abrams thinks children should be read to because it’s something joyful that creates a bond (纽带) between the parent and the child in such an important way. Reading books creates a moment that will never die off and always stay with the child. And what’s more, reading books to kids gives them power. The most important tool that they get is words. There are some kids who grow up hearing lots of words because they’re read to every single night. They are used to hearing sentences connected together when they’re babies. And then there are other kids who never get that. Reading and books help level that playing field. It gives words, millions of words, to these babies who really, really need them.
8. What did Larry Abrams find about his working environment
A. He had to live a hard life in a desert.
B. His students were very short of books.
C. His students couldn’t read or write at all.
D. His school was struggling to make ends meet.
9. What caused Larry Abrams to set up BookSmiles
A. His student’s trouble. B. His school’s requirement.
C. His daughter’s need for books. D. His close friend’s request.
10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. What books BookSmiles hands out. B. Where BookSmiles’s boxes are.
C. How busy BookSmiles’s workers are. D. How BookSmiles works.
11. What does Larry Abrams think of reading to children
A. It helps parents and children to kill time.
B. It makes children depend more on their parents.
C. It puts children far ahead of those without being read to.
D. It develops children’s language skills by parent-child behavior.
D
The giant African land snail (an animal) has returned to Florida for a third time. The foreign species (物种) was first found in the state in 1969. It took seven years and $1 million to get rid of (清除) them . They reappeared in 2011 and were wiped out in 2021 at a cost of $23 million. On June 23 2022, Florida officials reported that the snails had been found in the New Port Richey area of Pasco County.
To stop the snails from spreading to other areas, officials have asked Pasco County people to avoid moving any soil or yard waste and to report any sightings to a special hotline. Specially- trained dogs have also been brought in to find the snails. The areas where the snails have been found will be treated with special chemicals for 18 months. Florida officials also intend to monitor (监测) the sites for two years after the last snail has been found .
The various measures to get rid of the snails may seem too strict for most people. However, the giant African land snails are one of the most dangerous snails in the world. Without these measures, the result will be serious. The fist-sized snails are native to East Africa but can also be found in Hawaii and the Caribbean. They eat over 500 plant and tree species. While they prefer to eat fruits and vegetables, the animals are not picky. They will eat any plant! The animals also bring a serious health risk to humans by carrying the parasite rat lungworm, known to cause brain damage. The snails produce about 1, 200 eggs in a single year. This makes it stiff to control their population.
The officials are not sure how the snails got here this time, but they are confident the state will eventually get rid of them, because agriculture is such an important part of the economy in the state.
12. What are locals of Pasco County required to do with the snails
A. Kill the snails they find. B. Keep dogs off the snails.
C. Report if finding the snails. D. Put the snails into earth.
13. How may the author like the measures to get rid of the snails
A. Simple. B. Cost-saving. C. Necessary D. Out-of-date
14. What does the underlined word “stiff” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Possible. B. Hard. C. Interesting. D. Dangerous
15. What can be learned about the giant African land snail in Florida
A. It can’t be easily dealt with. B. It is one of the native species.
C. It came with some tourists. D. It will spread all over the US.

47. 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。
Fifty years ago, we saw a house in the South Farmingdale, North Massapequa area. The house is located on the ground floor. It is not only well lit, but also has a small garden. My husband and I fell in love with the house. The price was within our reach. Without hesitation we made our decision to buy it.
But there was one problem. It was a corner property. We both agreed there had to be a fence. So after moving in, my husband put up a fence and I painted it white.
How times flies! There have been many changes in our lives since that fence went up. My four children often enjoyed themselves in the garden. Our family had a happy family life in the garden. Now my four children have grown up and moved out. Most of the old neighbours have been replaced with new ones. It was last week that a young couple moved in next door to me. They have three children. Some of them go to school. Sometimes they play in the yard. When I saw their happy family, I felt as if I had gone through decades ago.
However, the fence remains, and at the moment, so do I. The fence has been repaired more often than I can remember. Most times a broken board or two was suddenly repaired. During the past ten years, it has been repainted professionally.
But more seriously, the white fence had turned green with mildew (霉菌). The boards were too old to paint. So this spring I had it rebuilt and repainted. I was satisfied with the rebuilt and repainted fence because it brought me back to my happy memory.
In a week, however, I was shocked to discover that a part of it was destroyed. A post (桩) was broken and some boards were left lying on the ground.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I didn’t know who or what did this.

My grandfather taught me the value of being trusted. My father-in-law influenced my life in a different way. He was quiet, loving and a man of power. When he spoke, I listened, as he did not speak unless he had something to say.
My loving husband has encouraged me to be strong and independent, to think for myself, and not to look to him for permission. My husband has also taught me to adapt with him to the ever-changing reality of his journey with illness, and he has met each one with courage and dignity. I have learned much from the men who have had an influence on my life. For all that I have learned and for the role they played and continue to play in my life I am forever thankful.

After high school English teacher Larry Abrams started his teaching career in a far suburb outside of Philadelphia, he found he taught in a book desert (荒漠). Many of the kids in school simply struggled (挣扎) with reading and then writing .
In 2017, when one of his students told him she had no book to read to her 2-year-old daughter, Abrams took action. He put forward a call to friends and family asking for gently used children’s books, and in no time, he had more than 1, 000 of them. He began handing out the books to young moms and local elementary schools. That was the start of his nonprofit, BookSmiles, which has since collected, sorted, and handed out hundreds of thousands of books throughout New Jersey and the Philadelphia area — and will soon reach 1 million.
BookSmiles calls on people to help collect books and drop them off in the group’s large collection boxes, which are painted with literary-themed artwork and put outside local businesses, houses of worship, schools, and people’s homes. Books are often handed out through teachers, who come to the book bank and choose as many books as they want.
Larry Abrams thinks children should be read to because it’s something joyful that creates a bond (纽带) between the parent and the child in such an important way. Reading books creates a moment that will never die off and always stay with the child. And what’s more, reading books to kids gives them power. The most important tool that they get is words. There are some kids who grow up hearing lots of words because they’re read to every single night. They are used to hearing sentences connected together when they’re babies. And then there are other kids who never get that. Reading and books help level that playing field. It gives words, millions of words, to these babies who really, really need them.
8. What did Larry Abrams find about his working environment
A. He had to live a hard life in a desert.
B. His students were very short of books.
C. His students couldn’t read or write at all.
D. His school was struggling to make ends meet.
9. What caused Larry Abrams to set up BookSmiles
A. His student’s trouble. B. His school’s requirement.
C. His daughter’s need for books. D. His close friend’s request.
10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. What books BookSmiles hands out. B. Where BookSmiles’s boxes are.
C. How busy BookSmiles’s workers are. D. How BookSmiles works.
11. What does Larry Abrams think of reading to children
A. It helps parents and children to kill time.
B. It makes children depend more on their parents.
C. It puts children far ahead of those without being read to.
D. It develops children’s language skills by parent-child behavior.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了高中英语老师拉里·艾布拉姆斯在费城郊外开始他的教学生涯后，他发现自己在一个“书荒”中教书。于是，他给朋友和家人打电话，希望他们能买到用过的儿童读物，他开始把这些书分发给年轻的妈妈和当地的小学。后来，他成立了非营利组织BookSmiles。 拉里·艾布拉姆斯认为阅读和书籍对孩子的成长非常重要。

【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“BookSmiles calls on people to help collect books and drop them off in the group’s large collection boxes, which are painted with literary-themed artwork and put outside local businesses, houses of worship, schools, and people’s homes.

The giant African land snail (an animal) has returned to Florida for a third time. The foreign species (物种) was first found in the state in 1969. It took seven years and $1 million to get rid of (清除) them . They reappeared in 2011 and were wiped out in 2021 at a cost of $23 million. On June 23, 2022, Florida officials reported that the snails had been found in the New Port Richey area of Pasco County.
To stop the snails from spreading to other areas, officials have asked Pasco County people to avoid moving any soil or yard waste and to report any sightings to a special hotline. Specially- trained dogs have also been brought in to find the snails. The areas where the snails have been found will be treated with special chemicals for 18 months. Florida officials also intend to monitor (监测) the sites for two years after the last snail has been found .
The various measures to get rid of the snails may seem too strict for most people. However, the giant African land snails are one of the most dangerous snails in the world. Without these measures, the result will be serious. The fist-sized snails are native to East Africa but can also be found in Hawaii and the Caribbean. They eat over 500 plant and tree species. While they prefer to eat fruits and vegetables, the animals are not picky. They will eat any plant! The animals also bring a serious health risk to humans by carrying the parasite rat lungworm, known to cause brain damage. The snails produce about 1, 200 eggs in a single year. This makes it stiff to control their population.
The officials are not sure how the snails got here this time, but they are confident the state will eventually get rid of them, because agriculture is such an important part of the economy in the state.
12. What are locals of Pasco County required to do with the snails
A. Kill the snails they find. B. Keep dogs off the snails.
C. Report if finding the snails. D. Put the snails into earth.
13. How may the author like the measures to get rid of the snails
A. Simple. B. Cost-saving. C. Necessary D. Out-of-date
14. What does the underlined word “stiff” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Possible. B. Hard. C. Interesting. D. Dangerous
15. What can be learned about the giant African land snail in Florida
A It can’t be easily dealt with. B. It is one of the native species.
C. It came with some tourists. D. It will spread all over the US.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍佛罗里达州的巨型非洲陆地蜗牛。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To stop the snails from spreading to other areas, officials have asked Pasco County people to avoid moving any soil or yard waste and to report any sightings to a special hotline. (为了阻止蜗牛蔓延到其他地区，官员们要求帕斯科郡的居民避免移动任何土壤或庭院垃圾，并要求人们向专门热线报告任何新发现。)”可知，帕斯科郡的当地人在发现蜗牛时需要及时报告情况。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“However, the giant African land snails are one of the most dangerous snails in the world. Without these measures, the result will be serious. (然而，巨型非洲陆地蜗牛是世界上最危险的蜗牛之一。如果不采取这些措施，后果将是严重的。)”可知，如果不采取措施清除蜗牛，后果很严重。故推知，作者认为清除蜗牛的措施是必要的。故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“The snails produce about 1, 200 eggs in a single year. (蜗牛一年产卵约1200个。)”可知，蜗牛产卵数量很大，可见很难控制蜗牛的数量。故推知stiff表示“困难的”，与hard意义一致，故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“They eat over 500 plant and tree species. While they prefer to eat fruits and vegetables, the animals are not picky. They will eat any plant! The animals also bring a serious health risk to humans by carrying the parasite rat lungworm, known to cause brain damage. The snails produce about 1, 200 eggs in a single year. (它们吃500多种植物和树木。虽然它们更喜欢吃水果和蔬菜，但这些动物并不挑食。它们会吃任何植物！这些动物还携带鼠肺线虫寄生虫。众所周知，这会导致脑损伤，从而给人类带来严重的健康风险。蜗牛一年产卵约1200个。)”可知，佛罗里达州的巨型蜗牛吃植物和水果，携带导致脑损伤的寄生虫，繁殖迅速。故推知佛罗里达州的巨型蜗牛不易被控制和处理。故选A。

____19____The key is not to put pressure on yourself and give up if you can’t meditate(冥想) for longer than 5 minutes.

Put yourself first.
If you are constantly putting everyone else before yourself, it can lead to low self-respect and deep unhappiness. ____20____, as you start placing value on yourself and put your own needs in the first place.

A. Seek professional advice
B. Write in a diary
C. Learning to say no can fight against this
D. Write about an event that made you feel unhappy that day

Research has even shown it has similar benefits to asking professional advice from psychological doctors. But it needs to be done properly. Writing a journal isn’t about losing yourself in self-pity. (写个人日记是帮助你更好地看待事物的好办法。研究甚至表明，它和向心理医生咨询专业建议异曲同工)”可知，本段建议通过写个人日记来帮助自己更好地看待事物。B项“Write in a diary (写日记)”是本段内容的概括。故选B项。
【17题详解】
上文“Writing a journal isn’t about losing yourself in self-pity. (写日记不是让你在自怜中迷失自我)”提出对写日记不正确的认识，G项“It’s a tool to help you see optional ways of thinking, feeling and behaving.(它是一种帮助你看到可选择的思考、感觉和行为方式的工具)”承接上文，讲应该如何正确看待写日记，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
【18题详解】
上文“Next time you have an negative thought, shout very loudly in your head ‘STOP’ for at least three seconds.(下次当你有一个消极的想法时，在你的脑海里大声喊“停止”至少三秒钟)”提出即时“停止”消极的想法，E项“Imagine something that represents a stop, such as a red light (想象一个代表停止的东西，比如红灯)”给出具体的建议，句中“something that represents a stop”与上文“STOP”相照应，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。
【19题详解】

【20题详解】
上文“If you are constantly putting everyone else before yourself, it can lead to low self-respect and deep unhappiness.(如果你总是把别人看得比自己重要，这可能会导致自卑和深深的不快乐)”提出把别人看得比自己重要会导致自卑和不快乐，所以要“Learning to say no... (学会说不)”，下文“as you start placing value on yourself and put your own needs in the first place.(因为你开始重视自己，把自己的需求放在首位)”进一步解释这样做的原因，上下文语意连贯。故选C项。

47. 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。
Fifty years ago, we saw a house in the South Farmingdale, North Massapequa area. The house is located on the ground floor. It is not only well lit, but also has a small garden. My husband and I fell in love with the house. The price was within our reach. Without hesitation we made our decision to buy it.
But there was one problem. It was a corner property. We both agreed there had to be a fence. So after moving in, my husband put up a fence and I painted it white.
How times flies! There have been many changes in our lives since that fence went up. My four children often enjoyed themselves in the garden. Our family had a happy family life in the garden. Now my four children have grown up and moved out. Most of the old neighbours have been replaced with new ones. It was last week that a young couple moved in next door to me. They have three children. Some of them go to school. Sometimes they play in the yard. When I saw their happy family, I felt as if I had gone through decades ago.
However, the fence remains, and at the moment, so do I. The fence has been repaired more often than I can remember. Most times a broken board or two was suddenly repaired. During the past ten years, it has been repainted professionally.
But more seriously, the white fence had turned green with mildew (霉菌). The boards were too old to paint. So this spring I had it rebuilt and repainted. I was satisfied with the rebuilt and repainted fence because it brought me back to my happy memory.
In a week, however, I was shocked to discover that a part of it was destroyed. A post (桩) was broken and some boards were left lying on the ground.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文：
I don’t know who did this. Whatever the reason was, I decided to call the police and asked them to help me find out the truth. As I was taking a photo of the damage for a police report, a young man approached me. He introduced himself as the relatively new neighbor, and offered sympathy for the damage. He said he would help me as much as possible. I thought he was just talking and didn’t take it to heart.
The next evening as I ate my dinner, I heard a noise outside. When I walked into the yard, I realized the sounds came from my property. As I walked closer, I saw the neighbor I met yesterday repairing my fence. There were still warm-hearted people who loved our community and reached out to a stranger in my time of need. Sometimes, when the fence falls down, there is a bridge of communication. Suddenly, I felt there was a warm current in the cold early spring.
