When a group of college students put their sorrows into action, they never imagined the project would fuel a
nationwide movement to help deal with hunger and control on food waste.
But that's exactly what the Farmlink Project has done since 2020, bringing together hundreds of young
volunteers to rescue nearly 77 million pounds of excess food and deliver it to those in need. The organization's
efforts help farmers, the environment, and people struggling to feed their families all at once.
广西2023年10月高中毕业班摸底测试·英语 第3页(共8页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司“In the United States,40 million Americans don't have enough food to eat. They don't know where their next
meal is going to come from,"said Aidan Reilly,who co-founded Farmlink.“Meanwhile,in the United States, we're
throwing out over 100 billion pounds of food every year.”
Back in 2020,Reilly and his childhood friend James Kanoff were reading and watching news about food
shortages, and they learned that area farms were forced to destroy excess produce that they couldn't sell,especially
with restaurants, schools and hotels closed. Reilly, Kanoff and a core group of friends worked together over
Zoom,texted and e-mailed to contact farms coast to coast."We didn't really set out to start a nonprofit,"Reilly said.
“We just thought,'There're so many people suffering,if we can figure out one way to help,then that'll be great.""
In California, they found a farmer who had 13,000 eggs that could be donated, and Reilly offered to do the
pickup and delivery himself. That was the first of many more deliveries. With “we'll come to you”as their
catchphrase(标语),the group rented U-Haul trucks and attempted to do all the food pickup and deliveries
themselves.
"We had a lot of small problems in the beginning,"Reilly said.“We broke axles(车轴),loaded in 40,000
pounds of potatoes in a wrong way and had to try to drag them out by using another truck and a rope. But we
made it work."
“Farmlink has worked with more than 100 farms and 300 communities in the US, rescuing and moving enough
food to distribute more than 64 million meals,"Reilly said.
24.What can we learn about Farmlink Project from the text?
A.It was launched by some college students. B.It helps relieve American poverty.
C. It cooperated with the farms worldwide. D.It is supported by the government.
25.Why did some farms waste the produce left?
A.The produce was of poor quality.
B. Nobody came to purchase the produce.
C.The farmers refused to sell it at a low price.
D.Food shortages were no longer a problem globally.
26.What difficulty did the students encounter in the start-up phase?
A.They were lacking in experience. B.They overloaded the supply.
C.Their navigation aids didn't work. D.The vehicles were inadequate.
27.What is the text mainly about?
A.Americans faced a food shortage crisis.
B.Farmers in poor areas worried about food waste.
C.Volunteers delivered farm produce to those in need.
D.Students took action to tackle hunger and food waste.

Tariq Qaiser,an architect, is trying to protect mangroves(红树林).The trees could save Pakistan's largest
city Karachi,sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster. He comes to Bundal Island several times a week to
document the illegal cutting of mangrove trees. Very often,“You can't hear a single bird because the chain saws are
so loud. The trees are cut down illegally for firewood,”he says,shaking his head. Besides,developers clear the
mangroves to make room for construction.
Karachi has a hot climate, and its concrete buildings and paved roads make it even hotter.Offshore,there are
islands where mangroves grow. They could be the key to slowing climate change.Mangrove forests pull carbon
学科网(北京)股份有限公司dioxide out of the air, holding four times as much of the planet-warming gas as other forests can. They support
diverse ecosystems. As sea levels rise with global warming,the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities
like Karachi from flooding. Karachi's mangroves are disappearing. But its numbers are rising in other parts of
Pakistan. With replanting efforts,the
广西2023年10月高中毕业班摸底测试·英语 第4页(共8页)
C.To sunport environmental conservation.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司country has tripled(三倍于)its mangrove coverage over the past 30 years.
Qaiser's work may have worked. Recently, a court in Karachi declared Bundal Island's
mangroves to be protected forests. But unforested parts of the island remain unprotected, and
developers want to build there. City officials say this could provide much-needed housing and bring
in billions of dollars. They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other
parts of Pakistan.
Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates Qaiser's “ extraordinary work” educating the public about
mangroves. But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture. “ Only 7% of Pakistan's
mangroves are in Karachi,”Haq says. He thinks it's wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the
country while ignoring the success in 93% of it. But Qaiser believes it's important to protect every
bit.
28.What do we know about Karachi's mangroves?
A.They occupy the building land.
B.They're home to various birds.
C.They're primarily being used as firewood.
D.They protect the city from climate catastrophe.
29.Why are efforts made to conserve the mangrove trees?
A. Their birthplaces meet crisis.
B.They boast huge diversity.
C.Their bonds with nature are close.
D.They grow at a rapid speed.
30.What does the Karachi government plan to do?
A.Grow mangroves in other areas.
B.Destroy buildings to grow mangroves.
C.Build more mangrove reserves.
D.Use mangroves to make profit.
31.What does Haq think of Qaiser's work on Karachi's mangroves?
A.Challenging.
B.Effective.
C.Insignificant.
D.Partial.

It's well-known that humor can benefit us both physically and mentally. The idea that laughter is the best
medicine has been around since ancient times. In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious,
Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the highest of the psyche's defense mechanism (机制),capable of
turning anxiety into pleasure.
There are four humor styles. Affiliative humor refers to jokes about things that might be commonly
considered funny, which is usually employed to improve relationships or make others laugh. If you've ever
shared a funny picture with a coworker, you've used affiliative humor. Self-enhancing humor involves being able
to laugh at yourself, often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better as a result.
Aggressive humor is laughing at the expense of others,which often involves sarcasm(讽刺),teasing,and
criticism. Self-defeating humor is the art of putting yourself down to gain favor from your peers, which is
possibly used by someone who's targeted by bullies.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司Each style of humor actually carries a different influence,when it comes to mental health. Julie Aitken
Schermer,a psychological researcher at The University of Western Ontario,says people using self-enhancing
humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others. By contrast, both
aggressive and self-defeating humor styles can hint at trouble. “We find that self-defeating humor is the most
concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not mattering. Those with an aggressive
humor style may not experience loneliness as much, however, since they rely on group dynamics(群体动力)in
order to make fun of their peers,”says Schermer.
Even if you tend to favor more negative humor styles,there's no reason to lose heart. Schermer says
people can develop a positive, self-enhancing humor style byconcentrating on the lighter and more
广西2023年10月高中毕业班摸底测试·英语 第5页(共8页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司humorous aspects of life.As author Kurt Vonnegut once wrote,“Laughter and tears are both responses
to worries and anxieties. I prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”
32. Why is Sigmund Freud's book mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A. To show the importance of mental health. B.To stress the role of humor.
C.To persuade people to stay positive. D.To introduce ancient jokes to us.
33.According to thetext,which kind of humor may you use to relieve pressure?
A.Affiliative humor. B.Self-enhancing humor.
C.Aggressive humor. D.Self-defeating humor.
34.What does the underlined phrase “hint at" probably mean in the third paragraph?
A.Signal. B.Explain.
C.Prevent. D.Solve.
35. Which of the following will Kurt Vonnegut probably agree with?
A.Humor is difficult to control. B.Crying is a good way of relief.
C. Humor is a double-edged sword. D.Laughter is the best cure for stress.

Humanities departments(人文院系)in America are once again being cut down. Earlier this month,the State
University of New York(SUNY)StonyBrook announced a plan to abandon several of the college's well-known departments
for lack of fund. The University of Pittsburgh has cut its German and classics. 36. In the UK, Middlesex University
decided to gradually get rid of philosophy department. In June 2015, the Japanese minister of education sent a letter to
the presidents of the national universities of Japan,suggesting they close their graduate and undergraduate departments
in the humanities and social sciences and focus on something more practical.
These are hard times. Instead of Shakespeare or French, there will be(perhaps there already are)college classes in
how to cut corporate spending. 37. But the only opportunity has been lost if they are denied the opportunity to study
foreign languages, the classics, literature,philosophy,music,theater and art in the university. When else in their busy lives
will they get that chance?
38.Essays explain why we need these subjects, and what their loss will mean. These areas of learning provide
us with the ability to think critically and independently; to see both sides of an issue;to look beneath the surface of
what we are being told; to appreciate the ways in which language can help us understand one another more clearly.
I don't believe that the humanities can make you a decent person.39.Studying philosophy teaches us about those
who have gone before us. A foreign language brings us closer to those with whom we share the planet. The humanities
touch those aspects of awareness that we call intellect and heart.40.
A.These subjects are under attack
B.Students need practical skills to find jobs
C.Defenses of the humanities have appeared
D. This problem has also arisen internationally

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。
When I was little, I lived in a house with a beautiful garden full of all kinds of flowers. There was nothing I
enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother reading stories to me. When I was old enough to read, I
enjoyed reading stories aloud to her.
I would never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school
play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed(排练)my lines so hard with me. But however easily I acted at home,
the moment I stepped on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally,my teacher took me aside, explaining
that she had written a narrator's(解说员)part to the play,and asked me to change roles. Her word,kindly expressed,
still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain.
Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions (蒲公英)in the
grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red,yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by
one dandelion. “I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,”she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we'll have
only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions," I protested,“All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions.”“Yes,every flower is beautiful in its own
way, isn't it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded,pleased that I had won herover.“And that is true of people too,” she
added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.”Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started
to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled to me gently.
