It is a story which began in 2009 in the remote valleys of Papua New
Guinea's(PNG)Huon Peninsula and is being heard around Caffe Vita's stores
in Seattle,Los Angeles and New York City,USA.Here,500g bags of this
high-quality coffee are available for purchase,alongside freshly made cups for
in-store enjoyment.
The limited harvest is grown under native shade at elevations(海拔)
ranging from 1200 to 1500 metres by farmers who have committed to
conserving 180,000 acres(英亩)of land for the preservation of Matschie's tree
kangaroos.And according to Caffe Vita,it is the story behind the coffee as
much as the quality of the product that attracts customers.
Deforestation to make way for rice farming,combined with over-hunting,
was threatening the only tree-living kangaroo.Thus in consultation with
communities of Yopno,Uruwa,and Som(YUS),Woodland Park Zoo helped
create PNG's first conservation area.
This was a significant achievement given that 95%of PNG land is owned
by local people and the 15,000-strong population of the YUS region was
geographically separated.Out of these strictures arose the opportunity to make
use of existing skill sets in agriculture for communities to develop in harmony
with national policy.
Setting aside land to grow high value coffee was so appealing that some
people walked for two days to participate in the consultation meetings.Karau
Kuna from the Tree Kangaroo Conservation Program(TKCP)explained“in
reality,all the planning was done by the people;we the facilitators just
introduced the concept and provided the technical support” .
But going beyond coffee growing was key to the project's longevity.
Community members also learned about processing and will eventually take on
marketing the product to new and existing buyers.As with any new project
there are challenges,but Lisa Dabek,Director of the TKCP,is confident.She
explains“the coffee project continues to grow and strengthen despite the
challenge of transport in this remote region.SOS(Save Our Species)funding
has allowed us to provide further technical assistance for the coffee project
while it is still at a critical stage” .
24.For what reason do the buyers purchase the PNG coffee?
A.Its rarity. B.Its cheap price.
C.Its convenience. D.Its ecological background.
25.What does the underlined word“strictures”in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Advantages. B.Restrictions. C.Disagreements.D.Flexibilities.
26.What is local people's attitude toward the coffee project?
A.Unclear. B.Dismissive. C.Approving. D.Doubtful.
27.What can we infer about the coffee project from the last paragraph?
A.It is in urgent need of funding.
B.It is progressing despite difficulties.
C.It has achieved the expected victory.
D.It has improved local transportation.

Picture this:you are running late to drop your kids off at school in the
morning.On top of this,it is pouring rain outside.While you are driving down
the highway,another car cuts you off.You begin to think they must be a rude
person who is also a terrible driver.A couple of minutes later,you,yourself
accidentally cut off someone.You inform yourself your action is a result of the
fact that you are late for your child's drop-off and you cannot see well because
of the rain.Why is it that we automatically assume others'negative actions are
a result of who they are as a person while giving ourselves excuses?The actor-
observer bias(偏差)is an explanation for this confusing phenomenon.
When you explain someone's behavior based on internal factors,like
assuming the person who cuts you off is a rude person,but attributing(把……
归因于)your own behavior to external situational factors,you are engaging in
the actor-observer bias.
So why does the actor-observer effect occur?The general explanation is
that it occurs as a defense mechanism for maintaining high personal dignity.We
would rather believe that our faults come from factors we cannot control because
then we cannot change them and it is easier for us to accept the outcome.
The actor-observer bias is the cause of many arguments between the actor
and the observer as a result of a misunderstanding of the effect of external and
internal factors.How can we stop thinking this way and become more
sympathetic to the people around us?This is where it gets tricky because the
observer's internal attributions are an automatic process which means they
occur almost immediately and unconsciously(无意识地).
In order to become more sympathetic towards surrounding people in
situations,we must make the attributions a controlled process.A controlled
process is when the observer purposely focuses attention on something and is
consciously aware of the process,unlike an automatic process.Knowing what the
actor-observer effect is and how it can influence your own attributions is a good step
toward becoming more sympathetic and kinder to people you interact with.
28.How would we define the other driver's behavior in Paragraph 1?
A.An emotional outburst.
B.A display of bad manners.
C.A moment of carelessness.
D.An unavoidable circumstance.
29.Why do we fall for the actor-observer bias?
A.To safeguard our self-image.
B.To avoid arguments with others.
C.To promote sympathy towards others.
D.To ensure fairness in interpersonal interactions.
英语试题 第5页(共10页)
30.How might an observer be more considerate to an actor's actions?
A.By focusing on the situational factors.
B.By making the attribution process automatic.
C.By attributing these actions to internal factors.
D.By imagining themselves in the same situations.
31.What is the best title for the text?
A.Why we repeat our mistakes
B.How we can stop blaming others
C.What is the science of social justice
D.Why we always ignore our own faults
D
Solar power is helping bring about a future of cleaner energy,but there are
limits to where rigid solar panels can go.A new kind of solar cell made with a
mineral called perovskite(钙钛矿)can go almost anywhere,says physicist Olga
Malinkiewicz.We can use perovskite cells on the surfaces of the building,on
the roofs of the buildings,on the roofs of the cars and on the electronic devices.
We can use it on the sails.We can use it in the balls,tents and unlimited
applications.Malinkiewicz says perovskite has become a favorite among solar
panel researchers.Because it can be printed,everyone can use it on every
surface.
Malinkiewicz developed a way to print perovskite panels like an inkjet
printer.She co-founded a company to produce them,called Soleil Technologies,
after the Baltic sun goddess.Construction company Skanska is testing the
panels at their Warsaw headquarters.Adam Targowski is sustainable(可持续
的)development manager for Skanska.They work perfectly,even when they
are not well exposed to sunlight.So we can use them in all surfaces of the
building.Soleil calculates that about one square meter of panel can supply a
day's worth of power for one worker's computer and lights.And they keep
getting better as research continues,says the company's scientific director
Konrad Wojciechowski.
For other technologies,it took decades to really enter markets.Perovskite
has been around only for few years in scientific research,so there is still a lot to
be done,but potential is basically pretty much unlimited,I think.There are
still durability and other problems to work out,but several companies expect to
have perovskite panels on the market this year.
32.What do we know about perovskite solar cell from the first paragraph?
A.It's delicate. B.It's complex. (C.It's flexible. D.It's expensive.
33.What does the underlined word“they”in the second paragraph refer to?
A.Perovskite panels.
B.Soleil Technologies.
C.Malinkiewicz and Skanska.
D.Skanska and Adam Targowski.
英语试题 第6页(共10页)
34.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.It needs years to put perovskite panels into markets.
B.Scientists think perovskite panels are ready for markets.
C.Perovskite has been studied for decades.
D.Perovskite panels may soon be seen in the market.
35.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To explain how to use perovskite panels.
B.To introduce perovskite panels.
C.To advertise a new solar power cell.
D.To propose scientists to further study perovskiet cells.

中有两项为多余选项。
Attitudes toward small talk can vary,but there are a few reasons why
some people may dislike small talk.
36 People who value deep connections may find small talk insufficient
for building meaningful relationships.But it needn't be.If the goal is to use
small talk to deepen connections with others,consider the kind of information
you are sharing.Communication research differentiates three levels of
conversation:factual,personal,and relational.
At the most superficial level of conversation,we share facts.We talk
about things and their place in time and space,exchange news and facts,and
report on our experiences factually and objectively(e.g.,“It was warm outside
today.”“I work as a computer analyst.”).Almost all these are factual
information. 37
The next is the personal level,where we talk about how we feel about the
content at the informational level.(e.g.,“I loved the warm weather today.”
38 ”).The personal level is defined by sharing emotions about something
or someone beyond the current time and space.Sharing from the personal level
invites the other person to connect with you at this deeper level.
39 Think:What's happening now?How am I feeling at this moment?
How do you feel being here with me?When we bring our attention to the
present moment,we often experience greater engagement and connection with
others. 40 This brings our attention to the many aspects of our present-
moment experience and lets another person into our inner world.
You can get a sense of how the experience of intimate(亲密的)connection
with another deepens as we move through the levels.
A.I just came from London.
B.I find my work rewarding.
C.It has nothing to do with oversharing.
D.It can be quite useful,but it lacks emotional content.
E.Small talk is often seen as shallow and lacking depth.
F.One way we can do this is to start sentences with“I notice...”.
G.The relational level involves sharing in the present moment and space.

The ancient proverb“Plants,trees and forests are a nation's wealth”has
its origins in the text Guan Zi written by philosopher and statesman Guan
Zhong some 2,700 years ago.It expresses 56 idea that a good ecological
environment has both economic and social value in its own right.
China has exerted significant efforts to advance an ecological civilization.
The belief that“green is gold”reflects the 57 (share)understanding that
prioritizing environmental harmony is crucial for both nature and humanity.
Take Yucun Village in Zhejiang for example.Once a major limestone-
mining(石灰石开采) area,the village has transformed 58 (it)into a
picturesque community featuring a sea of bamboo,in turn becoming a highly
sought-after tourist destination.Once troubled by droughts,Youyu County in
Shanxi 59 (witness)a remarkable increase in forest coverage,rising 60
(violent)from less than 0.3 percent 70 years ago 61 a current 57 percent.
The once poor land is now a lush oasis(绿洲),with an eco-farm and agro-
tourism 62 (emerge)as major sources of local income.
63 (harmonize)the preservation and restoration of ecosystems in
mountains,rivers,forests,farmlands,lakes,grasslands and sandy lands,the
Chinese Government has launched the Shan-Shui Initiative,under 64 it has
thus far carried out dozens of massive projects to restore vital ecosystems.The
efforts to translate these environmental benefits into 65 (found)for
ecological agriculture,industry and tourism continue to be a priority
throughout China.

Most people think that procrastination(拖延症)is a negative habit.But people
like me who routinely put off doing assignments,are likely to defend our
“slower”approach to getting tasks done.
I'm the only procrastination in my family.My parents and sister were all born
with the“do it right now”gift.They are always in a rush,as if closely rushed by an
invisible deadline.Personally,I prefer a more relaxed pace.When my parents voiced
their concern about my tendencies,saying“Don't put off until tomorrow what you
can do today!”“No way!”I responded,confidently presenting my research as a
defense.It said people procrastinated when they need to solve a problem or commit to
a topic or project.In these cases,delaying a decision can be beneficial.This was because
our minds continue to reflect on problems even when we were not actively thinking
about them,which could
lead to more creative solutions.My findings filled me with satisfaction and
pride.My method of getting things done was just as good as my sister's...or so I
thought.
At school we'd been talking about architecture and design.As part of the final
assessment my teacher Mr.Smith announced an exciting project that each student
would have a month to complete.We were expected to choose our
materials,construct a small building and make use of things we had learned in
class.Not only would the winners receive extra credit,but the winning
constructions would be proudly displayed in the cafeteria.“I have no clue how I could
get it done,”my friend Nate sighed in despair.I didn't say anything.Not because I
shared his anxiety—but because I was not nervous at all.I loved hands-on
projects!Picturing my brilliant work exhibited in the cafeteria,I was fully convinced
that I would definitely produce something that could impress everyone.So relaxed was
I that I didn't give it a second thought for weeks.
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。
Before I knew it,I had only one day left for the project.
That taught me a great lesson.
