The story of the Forest of Immortal Stories begins in 2019, when Cojocaru lost his wife to cancer.
Cojocaru suffered constant depression; as a solution, his doctor told him to walk in the countryside, 6,
000 or more steps a day.
Cojocaru had grown up in Nucsoara, but only as he walked the hills did he notice the trees: giant
beeches(山毛榉), some as old as 500 years. Their beauty and strength revived him, and he felt as if
they had adopted him.
Indeed, generations of villagers gathered firewood from the trees, trimming(修剪) the branches.
Where the trees were trimmed, new shoots appeared, branched, grew and were trimmed again, year
after year for centuries. The practice allowed the trees to continue bearing nuts, which the villagers fed
to their pigs to fatten them up. “The power of these trees is mindblowing, ” said Cojocaru. 5, 000
beeches still grow around Nucsoara, the highest concentration in Europe. But logging and changing
uses of the land pose a threat. Bark beetles(蠹虫) are moving in, too.
Together with a conservation organization, Cojocaru began the plan to protect the beeches and
draw ecotourism to Nucsoara. 2, 544 trees were identified and each was given a number plate,
photographed through the seasons and marked on a digital map. The trees are offered for adoption on a
website—although as Cojocaru insists, the tree adopts the person, not the other way around.
So began the project—the Forest of Immortal Stories. For a modest fee, people can attach their
own stories to a tree. When visited in person, the tree reads the narrative back through a QR code. For
example, No. 44 is Ana Branza, a Romanian fencing champion who won her first national title at age
15.
No. 2, 544 is Cojocaru. “I learn from them. I get a sense that they are old men who are very wise
and want me to do good. ” Cojocaru said of the trees.
24. Cojocaru’s walk in the beech forest can be described as _________.
A. Demanding B. Healing C. Adventurous D. romantic
25. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Beeches are posing a threat to the land.
B. Beeches are at risk of extinction in Europe.
C. The villagers benefited from the beeches a lot.
D. The villagers kept the beeches under protection.
26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Efforts made to preserve the beeches.
B. Introduction to a conservation organization.
C. The development of ecotourism in Nucsoara.
十校高三英语试卷—4(共10页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司D. Advanced technologies used to protect the beeches.
27. What can people do in the Forest of Immortal Stories?

Last winter I enjoyed a brief adventure in Guatemala. Over a period of 12 days, I explored through
the jungle to watch the sunrise and danced in the street during the holiday parade. But looking back on
that trip, what I remember most vividly is a New Year’s Eve in Guatemala City, at a lifeless hotel.
Rather than a countdown to midnight, I counted down the hours until my departure.
Nothing special happened during that night. Rather, the big role this hotel plays in my memories
can be explained by a psychological principle called the recency effect. “The recency effect helps to
account for our tendency to remember the ending part of a sequence of events with far more clarity
than the rest, ” said Dr. Mary Poffenroth, a biopsychologist. She says it arises from our short-term
memory’s inability to hold on to more than a small amount of information at once. So while there is no
magic formula to create lovely travel memories, employing the recency effect can turn a good trip into
an unforgettable one.
Dr. Stephanie, a Neuroscientist, says that while you can strategically set off the recency effect at a
trip’s end, you may have multiple opportunities to create lasting memories all along the way by
breaking it up into smaller chunks.
Keep in mind that the recency effect can also backfire. “Ending an amazing trip with stressful
flight delays, lost luggage or feeling unwell might be enough to overshadow the entire experience,
resulting in remembering the trip as awful instead of joyful, ” Stephanie said.
To avoid disproportionately(不成比例地) spotlighting the final days, Poffenroth has created a
trick: She amplifies(增强) earlier days in a trip to keep her memories well-rounded. “I collect little bits
that will remind me of that day: a subway ticket, a seashell, a cardboard drink with a pub’ s logo on it. ”
Then, as she is packing on the last day, “I go through all my little found treasures and spend a few
moments recalling each one, ” she said. “This gives me a sense of closure for that chapter of travel and
makes the experience memorable. ”
28. How did the author feel about the New Year’s Eve in Guatemala City?
A. It was boring. B. It was eventful.
C. It was relaxing. D. It was cheerful.
29. What do we know about the recency effect from paragraph 2?
A. It is based on a psychological principle.
B. It is widely used to create lovely memories.
C. It highlights the final part of a series of events.
十校高三英语试卷—5(共10页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司D. It makes up for the inability of short-term memory.
30. What does the underlined word “backfire” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Be avoided to some extent. B. Be applied extensively.
C. Produce undesirable consequences. D. Pose unexpected challenges.
31. According to Poffenroth, which of the following may help travelers have good memories?
A. Share travel experiences. B. Recall the final days of a journey.
C. Purchase as many souvenirs as possible. D. Purposely gather reminders of a journey. C.
D
In the video game Space Invaders Extreme 2, a player has to fire weapons to destroy aliens(外星
人) attacking Earth. These aliens move fast, raining down from the top of the screen and claiming a
player’s “life” if they reach the bottom.
A study in Nature suggests that while destroying digital aliens might seem unrelated to
distinguishing between words, such action video games may help children at risk for developmental
dyslexia—a genetic(遗传的,基因的) language disorder that makes processing words difficult—by
improving their ability to perceive spoken words and sounds.
In the study, 79 prereading children with family histories of dyslexia took several language tests,
including listening for differences in made-up words—a task that can be challenging for dyslexic
people. The kids were then split into four groups. One played Space Invaders Extreme 2, a second
played a non-action video game, a third attended speech therapy (疗法), and a fourth received no
intervention. Gamers played four times a week for45 minutes each over a month and a half, and those
in speech therapy attended 45-minute sessions twice weekly over about four months.
By the end of the trial more than 80 percent of the Space Invaders players were significantly better
at the word-identification task than before, and they showed greater improvements than any of the
other three groups. The researchers aren’t sure why scores on the other language tests did not improve
notably—but they say that this finding could be valuable. “If we can target these small cognitive(认知
的) functions before children are older and lose some brain plasticity, then perhaps we can treat aspects
of dyslexia before they’ve fully formed, ” says Simone Gori, co-author of the study.
Dyslexia often goes untreated in Italy’s overburdened public health and school systems, says
Marilu Tempini, a behavioral neurologist at the University of California. She hopes to see larger future
studies conducted in other languages as well. “Eyes are an extension of the brain, ” she says, “so when
we play video games, it’s directly connected to our cognitive function—and there is so much research
potential there. ”
32. The author describes Space Invaders Extreme 2 in paragraph 1 to show the game is ________.
十校高三英语试卷—6(共10页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司A. violent B. skill-based C. action-packed D. entertaining
33. According to Simone Gori, what is the significance of the finding?
A. It proves that children with dyslexia can be cured.
B. It offers hope that the public health system in Italy will be improved.
C. It suggests that video games can replace the traditional speech therapy.
D. It indicates that action video games can be used for early intervention of dyslexia.
34. What is Marilu Tempini’s attitude towards the study?
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Dismissive. D. Conserved.
35. Which of the following might be a suitable title for the text?
A. Secrets Behind Dyslexia Revealed
B. Action Video Games Advance Word Awareness
C. The Most Effective Coping Strategy for Dyslexia
D. Video Games Designed to Improve Cognitive Function

选项。
The average American generates five pounds of trash per day, according to the U. S.
Environmental Protection Agency. Some of it gets recycled but most of it ends up in landfills. 36
Do a trash examination. Check what you’ re throwing away by writing a list of the trash you
produce. 37 You might write “used wipes and paper towels” under “nursery” or “food waste and
metal cans” under “cooking”. This will help you grasp the extent of the trash you create and find ways
to cut it,
Save what you can. See if there’s anything you can save before throwing it in the trash. Maybe
you can mend an old pair of jeans instead of buying a new pair. Or maybe you can cut up old T-shirts
into rag. 38 If you have a bunch of overripe bananas, put it in the freezer to make banana bread
later.
Rely less on pre-packaged foods. Often, food comes in wasteful packaging. Usually, some drinks
come in plastic containers that may not be easy to recycle. So source your food in ways that don’t
require you to get it from a package. 39 Instead of buying oat milk in a non-recyclable container,
make it at home and store it in a jar, removing the packaging waste.
40 Once you start noticing how much trash you produce at home, you’ ll start to cut down
on trash elsewhere. Bring your own reusable fork to a restaurant that uses single-use plastic tools, Or

阅读下面的材料,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。
Knock-knock-knock. “Hello? ” I called timidly through my cousin Anita’ s bedroom door. No
answer. There’s no way she forgot I was moving in today, right? I thought. “Anita? It’s me, Norah! ” I
called again.
I had only met my cousin once a couple of years ago when Anita and Aunt Sonam had flown to
California to visit. Mom had hoped Anita and I would be friends. But all Anita wanted to talk about
was soccer, which was practically a foreign language to me. Secretly, I had felt relieved when the visit
was over.
Now, I was standing in my aunt’s tiny apartment in New York City, and there was still no answer
from Anita. I knocked again, a little louder this time. Finally, Anita opened the door. She apologized,
saying she had been listening to music. But instead of inviting me in, Anita frowned at my massive
suitcase.
Behind her, I could see a blue beanbag chair crowded next to a bunk bed(上下铺). In my old room
in California, I’d had a double bed all to myself, and my original artwork had covered all the walls.
Anita’s walls, on the other hand, were covered with posters of the U. S. women’s soccer team. I didn’t
see any free space to hang anything else.
“C-can I come in? ” I asked, blushing. Anita nodded, but she barely moved. I had no choice but to
squeeze by her into the room. I put my stuff against the wall and Anita started bouncing the soccer ball
from her foot to her knee and back again. Suddenly, her foot kicked the ball at an odd angle, and it
accidentally flew toward me. “Whoops! ” Anita called. “Think fast! ”
十校高三英语试卷—10(共10页)
学科网(北京)股份有限公司But I was still taking in the surroundings, so the ball caught me off guard and bounced off my
shoulder. Forcing a smile, I pretended it didn’t bother me. Unsure of what to do, I took out my
sketchbook(素描本) and colored pencils and sat down. Just holding my sketchbook made me feel more
at ease. I started sketching aimlessly while Anita went back to bounce her ball.
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I could draw Anita in action.
Anita studied the drawing carefully.
