Eradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution to two of her country’s
problems: garbage and poverty. It’s called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old
student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather
than throw your empty chip bags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them into
sleeping bags for the homeless.
Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lays, and other favorites at two
locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer
helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in soapy hot water, they slice them
open, lay them flat, and iron them together. They use padding (衬垫) and liners(衬里)
from old coats to line the insides.
It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each takes around 150 to 300
chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size. The result is a
sleeping bag that is “waterproof, lightweight, and easy to carry around”, Oleita told the
Detroit News.
高三英语试题 第4页 (共12页)Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800,000 chip
bags and, as of last December, created 110 sleeping bags. Sure, it would be simpler to
raise the money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita—whose
family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a
better life —and her fellow volunteers. “We are devoted to making an impact not only
socially, but environmentally,” she says.
And, of course, there’s the symbolism of rescuing bags that would otherwise land in
the trash and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that
environmental problem and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita told hourdetroit.
com:“ I think it’s time to show connections between all of these issues.”
24. What did Oleita ask the snack lovers to do with their empty chip bags?
A. To give them away to her.
B. To turn them into sleeping bags.
C. To throw them into the trash.
D. To donate them to the homeless directly.
25. Which of the following is true about the sleeping bags?
A. They can be made with ease.
B. They can be different in size.
C. They are far from overweight.
D. They are made by machines in the workshop.
26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Oleita started the project mainly to raise money.
B. Poverty results from environmental problems.
C. Oleita’s project made 110 sleeping bags per month.
D. The aim of the project is more than social issues.
27. Which words can best describe Oleita?
A. Responsible and creative.
B. Talented and social.
C. Hardworking and loyal.
D. Selfless and modest.
C
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 80 million
American adults are constantly sleep deprived(睡眠不足), meaning they sleep less
than the recommended minimum of seven hours a night. If you’re one of those people
who are proud of being able to fall asleep quickly just about anywhere, it’s too early to
gloat—it’s a distinct sign, especially if you’re less than 40 years old, that you’re severely
sleep deprived.
During our lifetimes, about a third of us will suffer from at least one diagnosable
高三英语试题 第5页 (共12页)sleep disorder,ranging from constant insomnia(失眠) to restless leg syndrome to
much rarer and stranger conditions.
Insomnia is by far the most common problem, the main reason 4 percent of U.S.
adults take sleeping pills in any given month. Insomniacs generally take longer to fall
asleep, wake up for long periods during the night, or both. They have a high risk of
depression, psychosis, and stroke. Lack of sleep is also directly tied to obesity: Without
enough sleep, the stomach and other organs overproduce the hunger hormone(荷尔
蒙), causing us to eat more. If sleep is such a natural phenomenon, why do so many of
us have such trouble with it?
The problem is that in the modern world our ancient, inborn wake-up call is
constantly set off by non-life-threatening situations like anxiety before an exam,
worries about finances, or every car alarm in the neighborhood. Before the industrial
revolution, which brought us alarm clocks and fixed work schedules, we could often
handle insomnia simply by sleeping in. No longer, now.
Power naps don’t solve the problem; nor does sleeping medicine. “Sleep is not a
single issue.” says Jeffrey Ellenbogen, a sleep scientist at Johns Hopkins University who
directs the Sound Sleep Project, “It’s a thousand different things. It’s fascinating to
regulate sleep with drugs or devices, but we don’t yet understand sleep enough to
artificially intervene in it.”
28. What does the underlined word “gloat” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Be worried. B. Be delighted. C. Be concerned. D. Be surprised.
29. What can we learn about insomniacs in paragraph 3?
A. They take sleeping pills on a daily basis.
B. They fall asleep faster than others.
C. They will become underweight.
D. They probably come down with mental diseases.
30. Why are so many people suffering sleep deprivation nowadays?
A. Because of the long-standing pressure of survival.
B. Due to the continuously existing threats to life.
C. Because of the loss of the natural wake-up call.
D. Due to the disturbance to the natural sleeping patterns.
31. What do Jefferey Ellenbogen’s words suggest?
A. Taking some sleeping pills works perfectly.
B. Artificial intervention can’t tackle insomnia thoroughly.
C. Devices help people get enough sleep undoubtedly.
D. Sleeping during the day should be conducted carefully.

In a potato field in Netherlands, farmer Jacob van den Borne is monitoring two
高三英语试题 第6页 (共12页)drones( 无 人 机 ) that provide detailed readings on soil chemistry, water content,
nutrients, and growth of every plant in real time. Van den Borne’s production numbers
prove the power of this “precision farming”, achieving a potato yield that’s more than
double the global average.
That abundant output is made all the more remarkable by the other side of the
balance sheet: inputs. Almost two decades ago, the Dutch committed to producing “Twice
as much food using half the resources.” Since 2000, water dependency for key crops has
been reduced by 90%, and greenhouse chemical pesticides nearly vanished(消失).
More surprisingly, the Netherlands, despite lacking typical resources for vast
agriculture, is the world’s second-largest food exporter by value, second only to the U.S,
which is 270 times its size in land area. How on earth have the Dutch done it?
A bird’s-eye view of the Netherlands shows a unique combination of urban and
rural landscapes, with over 50 percent of its land devoted to agriculture. What stands out
are the enormous mirror-like greenhouse complexes (建筑群)dotting the Dutch
landscape. These climate-controlled farms enable a country located less than a thousand
miles from the Arctic Circle to be a global leader in exports of a fair-weather fruit: the
tomato. The Dutch are also the world’s top exporter of potatoes and onions and the
second largest exporter of vegetables overall in terms of value. More than a third of all
global trade in vegetable seeds originates in the Netherlands.
The BRAIN TRUST behind these astonishing numbers is centered at Wageningen
University & Research (WUR) —the Dutch agritechnique version of Silicon Valley, for its
agricultural innovation. Ernst van den Ende, a WUR leader, emphasizes that only
combining scientific and market approaches can meet upcoming challenges. He
says the planet must produce“more food in the next four decades than in the
past 8,000 years.”By 2050, with a predicted global population of 10 billion, novel
farming methods are vital. WUR, with its 1000+ projects worldwide and global
partnerships, believes solutions exist to prevent future famine(饥饿).
32. What does “precision farming” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Modern farming with traditional tools.
B. A method focusing on maximum land use.
C. Farming practices employing advanced technology.
D. Agriculture with an emphasis on exports.
33. According to the passage, what is remarkable about Dutch agriculture?
A. It uses more resources than other countries.
B. It significantly reduces the use of water and chemicals.
C. It focuses merely on potato farming.
D. It relies on traditional farming methods.
34. What does the author imply about the future of agriculture?
A. Traditional farming will make a comeback.
高三英语试题 第7页 (共12页)B. Novel farming methods are essential for future food production.
C. Agricultural innovations will only benefit developed countries.
D. The role of universities in agriculture will disappear.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. The Historical Development of Europe Agriculture
B. The Promising Future of Global Food Security
C. The Great Challenges Faced by Global Agriculture
D. A Tiny Country with Big Agricultural Achievements

Being resilient isn’t about avoiding misfortune, but rather how we respond to it.
According to the commonly held view, resilience means doing well in the face of risk or
hardship.
3 6 We all get exhausted from time to time, and the pandemic has made it even
harder for most people to bounce back from challenges. Even if you consider yourself
resilient, you may need an extra boost in especially difficult times. To build resilience,
experts suggest the following:
Form relationships. During challenging times, establish and maintain a support
net-work before you need it, as emphasized by Michael Ungar, PhD, author of
Change Your World. When hardship strikes, a supportive friend with good listening
skills can make a big difference. 3 7
Find a sense of purpose. When somebody needs you, you can deal with stress much
better, Ungar says. Your sense of purpose doesn’t necessarily have to come from school or
work. 38 So why not grow a backyard vegetable garden or clean up litter in a
neighborhood park?
Don’t try to remove misfortune completely. Resilience usually refers to how we
handle serious hardship. 3 9 “Everyday stress probably helps us learn how to handle
bigger challenges and gradually improve our adaptive systems,” says Suniya Luthar, co-
author of Authentic Connections.
Keep in mind that building resilience is an ongoing process requiring effort and
practice. 40 While we may not be able to control the misfortune that comes our way,
we can control how we respond to them.
A. So, building a network that cares matters.
B. This is crucial, especially when facing tough times.
C. It can also arise from hobbies or volunteer projects.
D. Taking care of yourself is vital for building resilience.
E. Be flexible in your thinking and open to adjusting your plans.
F. Recently, we’ve found ourselves relying on our resilience more than ever.
高三英语试题 第8页 (共12页)G. However, our reactions to significant problems may be influenced partly by minor
failures.

Role Change
It was a Friday night, and I was just picked up from school by my uncle. He told me
that my mother had been in a terrible car crash and had been taken to a nearby hospital.
When we got to the hospital, my grandmother pulled me aside and said whatever I did, I
mustn’t cry in front of my mother.
My mother’s room was right next to the nurses’ station. As I turned into the room, I
saw her lying on her side, with her tiny back to me and a pillow between her bandaged
legs. She struggled to turn around but couldn’t. I slowly inched to the other side of the
bed and said “hi” in a calm voice, containing my urge to cry out.
Gently holding my mother’s cold swollen hands, I tried to keep calm. She kept
looking straight into my eyes as if trying to tell me how much pain she was in. I turned
my face away from her, trying to hide the tears that were rolling down my face.
Eventually I had to leave her for a moment because I couldn’t take it anymore. That was
when it struck me that I really might lose my mother. Then I went home and cried myself
to sleep.
From that night on, my life completely changed. Up to that point, I’d had the luxury
of just being a kid, having to deal with my “messy” teenage life and enjoying my
mother’s care. My concept of crisis was now forever changed. As my mother struggled
first to stay alive and then to relearn to walk, my sense of priorities in life changed
completely. My mother needed me. The trials and hardships of my daily life at school,
which had seemed so important before, now appeared insignificant. My mother and I
had faced death together, and life took on new meaning for both of us.
I visited my mother in the hospital as often as I could for the next two months.
高三英语试题 第11页 (共12页)Finally, a sort-of hospital suite(房间) was set up in our family room, and to my relief and
joy, she was allowed to come home.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Her returning home was a blessing, but it meant some unfamiliar duties for me.____
