Back in 2020: One day, I was scheduling appointments in the office; the next, I broke
my leg and had to stay in bed. Over time, I grew sick of video conferencing and TV
marathons, and started searching for something new to fill the long and restless days.
A headline on a website caught my eyes: “This Weaving Loom (织布机) Saved Me
When All My Previous Hobbies Disappeared.” This was the universe speaking to me. I
immediately bought all the things recommended — a small loom, a few colors of threads
(线) and a weaving book.
My first weaving looked ... not great. I skipped the book and free-styled a
pink-and-white cloth to hang on my apartment door. It started off OK; I strung the loom
successfully and figured out how to slide the threaded needle over and under the backbone
of the cloth.
Then, mistake after mistake, I pulled the thread way too tight, making the sides curve
in. There were lots of gaps, where I could see the white threads underneath the colored
ones. I couldn’t make the long fringe (穗) at the bottom. In a fit of frustration, I left it a
mess.
Humbled by my pride, I opened the weaving book. I learned how to get my edges
straight and my ends neat. I figured out how to sew backs onto cloths, stuff them with
cotton and make colorful pillows to display on my sofa. Soon I started making some for
my families and friends. I even saved up money to buy a 4-by-4-foot loom, where I
worked on bigger objects.
I was officially taken with it. Actually, I’ve never been good at anything that requires
hand-eye-brain cooperation. But weaving, somehow, feels different. It requires the same
steps repeated over again and encourages you to lose yourself in the process. Every time I
pick up my loom, my brain quiets down; as my needle slips between threads, I ground
myself. I’ve never loved a hobby like this.
24.Why did the author buy a loom?
A. To try out an idea. B.To pass the time.
高三英语 第 3 页 共 12 页
C. To afford a budget-friendly ticket. D. To buy a free city guidebook.
25. What did the author think of her first weaving?
A. Boring. B. Pleasing. C. Encouraging. D. Disappointing.
26. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.The value of the weaving book.
B. The advice for weaving beginners.
C. The process of growing love for weaving.
D. The attitude towards previous mistakes.
27. What does the author seem to love about weaving?
A. It is a craft with calming quality.
B. It is a means to make a living.
C. It is a way to keep traditions alive.
D. It is a practice for human connection.

Tree-planting, intended to help draw down carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, has
become a synonym ( 同义词) for climate action. In our constant focus on trees, we’ve
developed a fixed understanding: Trees absorb carbon dioxide, end of story. The reality is
that trees don’t grow well alone. They exist within complex communities, helped along by
each other as well as the animals they coexist with. The woodland isn’t nature’s only carbon
sink: Grasslands and oceans also help reduce the carbon level and rely on a healthy amount
of biodiversity.
That’s what the paper, published in Nature, wants to get across. Co-author Oswald J.
Schmitz, a professor of ecology at Yale University, said trees might not be able to do their
carbon-uptake job efficiently without the right animals in their ecosystem. That’s because
animals animate the carbon cycle through their behavior and roles in the ecosystem. He
added that the very presence of wild animals could cause feedback effects that change the
ecosystem’s capacity to absorb, release, or transport carbon.
In Serengeti, for instance, the sharp decline in wildebeest (角马) populations during the
mid-20th century allowed grass to grow wildly, eventually promoting wildfires that
consumed 80 percent of the ecosystem annually and led to a net release of carbon dioxide
into the atmosphere. When disease management and bans on illegal hunting helped animal
populations recover, a greater share of the carbon stored in plants was consumed by
wildebeest and released as waste, keeping it in the system and restoring the grassland as a
carbon sink.
Researchers rarely consider wildlife conservation as a strategy to increase an
ecosystem’s carbon storage capacity, said Schmitz. “They think that animals either aren’t
important enough or that you can’t take up carbon and conserve animals at the same time,”
he said. “Our message is that you can and should. It can be a win-win for both biodiversity
conservation and carbon uptake.” We need a full picture -- with both trees and animals -- to
explore nature’s full potential.
28. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Actions are needed to reduce carbon dioxide.
B. Trees are a quick solution to the climate crisis.
C. Grasslands and oceans help maintain biodiversity.
D. People are not thinking through trees properly.
高三英语 第 4 页 共 12 页
29. What does the underlined word “animate” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Restart. B. Activate. C. Disturb. D. Break.
30. What does the author want to say by mentioning wildebeest?
A. Animals can change the ecosystem’s capacity to store carbon.
B. The conservation of animals is still a serious issue.
C. Human impacts bring about the reduction in wildlife populations.
D. The increase in animal species causes a decrease in carbon uptake.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Animals Adjust Themselves to Climate Change
B. Woodland Isn’t the Only Carbon Sink on the Earth
C. Trees May Fail to Fulfil Their Duties without Animals
D. The Serengeti Ecosystem Needs Urgent Improvement
D
In the 1950s, British historian Northeaster Parkinson came up with a concept which
was later known as Parkinson’s Law of Triviality. It states that the amount of time spent
discussing an issue in an organization is oppositely associated with its actual importance.
Parkinson’s Law of Triviality is also known as “bike-shedding (车棚)”, after the story
Parkinson uses to illustrate it. He asks readers to imagine a financial committee meeting to
discuss a three-point agenda. The points are as follows: A proposal for a f 10 million
nuclear power plant; A proposal for a f350 bike shed; A proposal for a f21 annual coffee
budget.
What happens? The committee ends up running through the nuclear power plant
proposal in little time. It’s too advanced for anyone to really dig into the details. The
discussion soon moves to the bike shed. Here, everyone’s an expert. In the end, the
committee runs out of time and decides to meet again to complete their analysis.
Bike-shedding happens because the smaller a matter is, the more people will have an
opinion on it, even when there is no genuine value to add. When something is outside of
our circle of competence, like a nuclear power plant, we don’t even try to express an
opinion. But when something is comprehensible, everyone wants to show that they know
about the topic at hand.
How can we avoid bike-shedding? The main thing you can do is to have a clear
purpose. Priya Parker, the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It
Matters, says that any successful gathering needs to have a focused purpose. “Specificity,”
she says, “is a crucial element.”
When it comes to choosing your list of invitees, Parker writes, “if the purpose of your
meeting is to make a decision, you may want to consider having fewer cooks in the
kitchen.” Getting the result you want -- a thoughtful, educated discussion about that power
plant -- depends on having the right people in the room.
32. What is Parkinson's purpose of presenting the imaginary meeting?
A. To state a fact. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To make a prediction. D. To make a comparison.
33. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. The more you know, the less you speak.
B. What is simple for you may be tough for others.
C. What requires more work may get less attention.
高三英语 第 5 页 共 12 页
D. The more you put in, the better your result will be.
34. Which is the author's suggestion for a successful meeting?
A. Planning before the meeting.
B. Getting the right people to the table.
C. Spending less time on the minor issues.
D. Taking different opinions into account.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Purpose: The Key to an Effective Meeting
B. Talent: A Crucial Element in Organizations
C. The Bike Shed Effect: Avoiding Small Matters
D. Nuclear Power Plant: The Less-known Proposal

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两
项为多余选项。
Going on holiday doesn’t have to be bad for the environment, and there are still plenty of
ways you can have a much-deserved break without harming the environment.
Forget planes. While most forms of transport produce carbon dioxide, planes have a
massive carbon footprint because of the huge number of miles they travel. 36
Many of us ignore the endless beautiful scenery around us. There’s the unparalleled beauty
of the Mississippi River. Alternatively, you can drive your car to the Grand Canyon to see
its splendor.
Pack with care. 37 All of their bottles, from shampoo and conditioner to
body wash and moisturizer, are now made from recycled plastic that can be repurposed
again and again so no new plastic is produced. And their iconic soap bars now also come in
plastic-free packaging.
38 Hotels can be huge producers of greenhouse gases. Think about the
water that’s wasted and all the buffet food that goes uneaten. So choose an eco-friendly
option instead. Camping and a home stay - where you live with a family in their own home
- are two of the best options. But if you insist on staying in the hotel, pick one made from
sustainable materials. 39
Buy gifts responsibly. Bringing back gifts for friends and loved ones is part of the fun
of a holiday. 40 Avoid anything plastic or if it is plastic, make sure it is 100%
,
recyclable, and make sure your friends will love whatever you give them so it isn’t just
thrown in the bin headed for landfill.
A. But make sure you choose items carefully.
B. Consider living in an eco-friendly hotel.
C. Think about green accommodation.
D. It’s also acceptable to live in a hotel using new energy.
E. Take brand-name beauty and bath products with you.
F. So why do planes consume so much fuel compared with other transport?
G. So why not skip flying in favor of a holiday closer to home?

文。
Though his father, grandmother, uncles, aunts and cousins were all going to be there, it
would be the first time for Hasan, a thoroughly spoiled child, to be without the constant
mothering of his helicopter mother.
At first Hasan tried to emotionally threaten his mother into not going, but after she
promised to bring back his favourite toys and candies, he unwillingly let her go.
When he went to drop off his mother at the airport, he had teary eyes as he wondered
how he was going to survive without her for the next two weeks. Although he felt like
crying like a baby, he was too embarrassed to cry out loud. But when his father hugged
him, Hasan couldn’t stop crying in his arms. When they returned home, Hasan, who had
always been told by his mother what to do, now had no one to tell him to wash his hands
or finish his dinner. Though he was very upset about his mother’s leaving, suddenly he
also realized the potential for partying, away from his mother’s discipline. There would be
no checks or balances. He could stay up late, eat junk food and use the Internet to his
heart’s content.
Back from school, he would think, “Homework? I’ll make the most of my freedom
and have some fun instead!” Hasan started to stay up till he could no longer stay awake
and then woke up with a lot of difficulty at seven in the morning, barely making it to
school on time. But after a few days, his partying started catching up with him. In school,
he was barely managing to stay awake. Things started getting out of control. His
homework remained undone. He failed his tests. He felt weak from eating only junk food.

Dear Ryan,
I’m really excited to be informed that we are going to start an English official account,
which is definitely a wonderful idea. As for proposals, I’d like to recommend “Students’
Voice” as a distinctive column.
As studying is always students’ top priority, we students are under great pressure and
lack opportunities to be listened to. Why not help students express their inner feelings and
have a good mood to embrace the tough yet bright future? This column, I promise, is bound
to be a precious outlet and a stepping stone to communicating fluently in English.
That’s all for my advice! Thank you!
Yours

W: I think the blue shirt really suits you. I also like the white one and the green one, but they don’t fit you as well.
M: I agree with you. It’s a really nice style, isn’t it? (3)
Text 4
W: Oh, listen to my stomach. I haven’t had a thing since breakfast.

M: When I get home, I think I’ll sleep for about two days. (6)
W: It’s been a long journey, hasn’t it? (6) But I’ve enjoyed it.
M: Me too. But if I go again, I think I will go by air.
W: I agree. But it isn’t the driver’s fault. He’s tried to keep us entertained. (7)
M: He’s been great. I think buses are fine for shorter journeys, but this was just a bit too far. (7)
W: What’s the first thing you’ll do when you get home?
