A tree-planting initiative in Kenya has seen over 30,000 trees being planted. The Green
Generation Initiative is a Kenyan charity that has been planting trees to counter climate change and
the reduction in forest in the East African nation since 2016.
Founded by climate activist Elizabeth Wathuti when she was fifteen years old, the initiative’s
primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools
and addressing food insecurity in the region through planting fruit trees. Since its foundation, over
30,000 trees have been planted in Kenya, while thousands of school children have not just planted
trees but adopted them to ensure that young people learn the importance of acting as a guardian over
学科网（北京）股份有限公司the health of the environment. The trees have recorded a survival rate of over 98 percent, as they
remain tended to from young trees to maturity.
Speaking to world leaders at the recent United Nations Climate Conference in Glasgow
(COP26), Elizabeth issued a serious warning on the threat of climate change. Over two million of
Kenyans are facing climate related starvation. In 2025, half of the world’s population will be facing
water shortage. The climate crisis will displace 80 million people in sub-Saharan Africa alone.
Elizabeth said, “I have been doing what I can. Inspired by the great Wangari Maathai, I founded
a tree growing initiative that enhances food security for young Kenyans.” So far, they have grown
30,000 fruit trees to maturity, providing desperately needed nutrition for thousands of children.
“Every day we see that when we look after the trees, they look after us. We are the adults on this
Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water,” she
added.
24. What is the initiative intended for?
A. Making policies. B. Raising money.
C. Educating adults. D. Fighting climate change.
25. What crisis are Kenyans encountering at present?
A. Sickness. B. Hunger. C. Water shortage. D. Economic risks.
26. What has been achieved since 2016?
A. 3,000 trees have been planted. B. 80 million people have been saved.
C. Green awareness has been raised. D. School education has been guaranteed.
27. Which of the following can best describe Elizabeth Wathuti?
A. Friendly and talented. B. Caring and responsible.
C. Honest and determined. D. Ambitious and humorous.
C
Few people can refuse a delicious ice cream, especially on a hot day. The only thing that stops
the fun is that the treat is hard to enjoy slowly, ending up with a sticky, melted mess. Now,
researchers from Colombia’s Pontifical Bolivarian University may have found an unlikely thing to
help solve this age-old problem — a kind of fibre from banana plant waste.
Bananas as you probably know, grow in groups on a tree-like plant. Each group is connected to a
central rachis (叶轴), which is thrown once the fruit has been gathered. The team, which was led by
Dr. Robin Zuluaga Gallego, began by abstracting /drawing out cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) from the
powdered rachis. The tasteless fiber, thousands of times smaller than the width of a human hair, was
then added to 100 grams of ice cream mix.
With the right amount of CNFs mixed in the dessert lasted longer in its frozen state than the
traditional ice cream, extending the amount of time that the treat can be enjoyed. What was even
more exciting was that the fibre increased the stickiness of the low-fat ice cream to levels higher than
the full-fat one. Since this is what determines the frozen treat’s creaminess and taste, CNFs could
help create the healthier ice cream without influencing the taste of it.
The researchers, who presented their findings at the American Chemical Society( ACS) meeting
in New Orleans in March, 2018, next plan to study how different types of fat, such as coconut oil,
influence the behaviour of CNFs in other frozen treats.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司The Colombian researchers are not the only ones working on creating a slower-melting ice
cream. In 2015, scientists at the University of Dundee in Scotland found that a natural protein called
BsIA was very effective in keeping the treat frozen for longer periods of time. With both teams
fighting to be the first to get to the market, the future of everyone’s favorite dessert certainly looks
bright.
28. What prevents people enjoying an ice cream slowly?
A. A kind of fibre from bananas. B. The fat in the ice cream.
C. The ice cream’s stickiness. D. The ice cream’s quick melting.
29. Why were CNFs added to ice cream mix?
A. To improve its taste. B. To increase its stickiness.
C. To reduce its fat content. D. To make it melt more slowly.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The ice cream. B. The fiber. C. The fat. D. The stickiness.
31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. BsIA is popular in the market.
B. CNFs are more useful and expensive than BsIA.
C. Slowly enjoying an ice cream will soon become a reality.
D. Ice creams with CNFs have been on sale at the market.
D
The AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing and advertising practice. It outlines the
four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creating
attention (A), decorating interest (I), and building desire (D) for the product, before the fourth step
— the “call to action” (A) — tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel the
customer’s feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.
Attracting the customer’s attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an
attracting phrase or picture. Once someone’s attention has been clutched, it must be turned into real
interest. This is best done by providing a brief description of the product’s benefits to the consumer
rather than simply listing the product’s main features or problem-solving claims.
Now, it is time to transform that interest into a desire for a product or service. This is where
consumers need to believe their lives could be better by possessing the product. It could be a vital
step towards turning a potential into a real customer.
“Call-to-action” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a
potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the
services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them
all along.
And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing
campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie
without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully
designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of
dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the
movie’s release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司32. What is the purpose of practising AIDA?
A. To increase sales. B. To create jobs.
C. To research markets. D. To introduce products.
33. What does the underlined word “clutched” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Seized. B. Freed. C. Cheated. D. Affected.
34. In which stage of the AIDA model may a customer call to try the service?
A. Attention .B. Interest. C. Desire. D. Action.
35. Why does the author mention the movie industry in the last paragraph?
A. To design an AIDA model. B. To display how AIDA works.
C. To show how to make a movie. D. To advertise the movie industry.
第二节（共 5小题；每小题 2.5分，满分 12.5分）
根据短文内容，从短文后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。
Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people, choice gives birth to
anxiety. Interested in the idea “too many choices are dizzy”, I have been conducting an experiment.
__36__
When presented with a menu in a restaurant, I’ll only consider the first few options on each page.
I know, it sounds crazy. __37__ I used to read the menu a long time instead of sitting back and talking
to my dining companion. These days I quickly select the best-sounding dishes and then chat and eat. In
doing so, I find myself trying new things. The other night, for example, I ordered a smoked chicken
salad. If I had permitted myself to glance further down the list, this would never have happened. But
guess what? It was delicious. So limiting my choices can sometimes lead me to a wider range of
experiences.
___38___I can now access many films and TV series, yet after ten minutes of looking through
apps and menus, I will more often than not find myself watching whatever Channel 4 has scheduled at
9 pm. So before I even turn on the TV, I ask myself: what do I want to watch? I think of a program.
___39___
This devotion to a simpler set of possibilities came in handy when our summer holiday to America
was COVID-canceled. I didn’t go through a million TripAdvisor reviews for the best replacements. I
simply went on Airbnb, saw what in England was still available and immediately booked the one I
could afford. __40__ And now I can actually focus on enjoying our holiday.
A. Then I just watch it.
B. It never proved worth a try.
C. But it’s actually quite liberating.
D. It interprets a lifestyle: less is more.
E. The same applies to home entertainment.
F. By doing so, I saved myself days of travel anxiety.
G. I’ve been expanding the choices I allow myself to have.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was cool and bright and just right for running. I was in the first few miles of a 10-mile race
through some hills. Birds were singing on the trees. The soft wind was brushing my cheeks. I felt
rested and springy. Despite the hills, I thought it was going to be a fine run.
Ahead was Blake, a student from Burke High School. He was running easily, too, moving along
efficiently. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where he was; why bother concentrating on
pace when Blake was such a nice pacesetter for me? I would overtake Blake later on when he used up
energy.
So I ran closely behind him. The course headed north for five miles, wandered west for a mile, and
then turned south again. The race was getting tougher. With three miles to go, it was beginning to be
real hard work. My lungs were on fire, and legs felt like stone.
Blake overtook the boy in front of him. Apparently he knew the boy, for they exchanged a few
words. Their brief communication worried me. Runners don’t chat during a race unless they feel really
good, and Blake plainly was. There was still a noticeable bounce in his steps, but the springiness I had
once possessed was gone.
Still, I was close enough to overtake Blake if he was tired, so I didn’t give up hope completely. We
were approaching a hill, a mile from the finish line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost
certainly determine who crossed it first.
As I moved up the hill, my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Blake was
moving away, first five yards, then ten, then more. There was no hope of catching Blake.
注意：1. 续写词数不应少于150；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly Blake slowed and sat onto the ground

续追赶他。

from the deserts of Australia, and this is one of several species that survive in that climate. Today,
beardies like this one are fed here in the US. First, you need to have the right supplies: a cage or
something like that, a UV bulb, branches and rocks to climb on and rest on, a food or water dish, and
something to line the bottom of the cage. You can even take them outside three times a week in the
direct sunlight. Then it comes to the dietary needs of a bearded dragon.They mainly eat insects,
vegetables and the leaves of plants. Well, since bearded dragons traditionally live in dry regions, they
obtain most of their water naturally from what they eat. You have to be sure to feed them plenty of
vegetables that serve as good carriers of water.
