I remember the day during our first week of class when we were informed about our semester(学期) project of volunteering at a non-profit organization.When the teacher introduced us to the different organizations that needed our help，my last choice was Operation Iraqi Children (OIC).My first impression of the organization was that it was not going to make enough of a difference with the plans I had in mind.
Then，an OIC representative gave us some details，which somewhat interested me.After doing some research， I believed that we could really do something for those kids.When I went online to the OIC website，I saw pictures of the Iraqi children.Their faces were so powerful in sending a message of their despair(绝望) and need that I joined this project without hesitation.We decided to collect as many school supplies as possible，and make them into kits——one kit，one child.
The most rewarding day for our group was project day，when all the efforts we put into collecting the items finally came together.When I saw the various supplies we had collected，it hit me that every kit we were to build that day would eventually be in the hands of an Iraqi child.Over the past four months，I had never imagined how I would feel once our project was completed.While making the kits，I realized that I had lost sight of the true meaning behind it.I had only focused on the fact that it was another school project and one I wanted to get a good grade on.When the kits were completed，and ready to be sent overseas，the warm feeling I had was one I would never forget.
In the beginning，I dared myself to make a difference in the life of another person.Now that our project is over，I realize that I have affected not only one life，but ten.With our efforts，ten young boys and girls will now be able to further their education.
24.How did the author feel about joining the OIC project in the beginning?
A. It would affect his/her initial plans.
B. It would involve traveling overseas.
C. It would not bring him/her a good grade.
D. It would not live up to his/her expectations.
25. What mainly helped the author change his/her attitude toward the project?
A. Images of Iraqi children. B. Research by his/her classmates.
C. A teacher's introduction. D. A representative's comments.
26. The author's OIC project group would help ten Iraqi children to__________..
A. become OIC volunteers B. further their education
C. study in foreign countries D. influence other children
27. What can we conclude from this passage?
A. One's potential cannot always be underrated.
B. First impression cannot always be trusted.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. He who hesitates is lost.
C
Hundreds of scientists，writers and academics sounded a warning to humanity in an open letter published last December：Policymakers and the rest of us must engage openly with the risk of global collapse.Researchers in many areas have projected the widespread collapse as“a credible scenario(情景) this century”.
A survey of scientists found that extreme weather events，food insecurity，and freshwater shortages might create global collapse.Of course，if you are a non-human species，collapse is well underway.
The call for public engagement with the unthinkable is especially germane in this moment of still-uncontrolled pandemic and economic crises in the world's most technologically advanced nations.Not very long ago，it was also unthinkable that a virus would shut down nations and that safety nets would be proven so disastrously lacking in flexibility.
The international scholars' warning letter doesn't say exactly what collapse will look like or when it might happen.Collapseology，the study of collapse，is more concerned with identifying trends and with them the dangers of everyday civilization.Among the signatories(签署者)of the warning was Bob Johnson，the originator of the“ecological footprint”concept，which measures the total amount of environmental input needed to maintain a given lifestyle.With the current footprint of humanity，“it seems that global collapse is certain to happen in some form，possibly within a decade，certainly within this century，”Johnson said in an email.
Only if we discuss the consequences of our biophysical limits, the December warning letter says，can we have the hope to reduce their“speed，severity and harm”.And yet messengers of the coming disturbance are likely to be ignored.We all want to hope things will turn out fine.As a poet wrote，
Man is a victim of dope (麻醉品)
In the incurable form of hope.
The hundreds of scholars who signed the letter are intent(执着) on quieting hope that ignores preparedness.“Let's look directly into the issue of collapse，”hey say，“and deal with the terrible possibilities of what we see there to make the best of a troubling future.”
28. What does the underlined word“germane”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Scientific. B. Credible.
C. Original. D. Relevant.
29. As for the public awareness of global collapse，the author is__________.
A. worried B. puzzled
C. surprised D. scared
30. What can we learn from this passage?
A. The signatories may change the biophysical limits.
B. The author agrees with the message of the poem.
C. The issue of collapse is being prioritized.
D. The global collapse is well underway.
D
Early fifth-century philosopher St.Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was unless someone asked him.Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time varies depending on where you measure it.Today's state-of-the-art atomic(原子的) clocks have proven Einstein right.Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you're asking.
Forget about time as an absolute.What if，instead of considering time in terms of astronomy, we related time to ecology?What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo(节奏) of human life?We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone，and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance.What if our definition of time reflected that?
Recently，I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that's connected to circumstances on our planet，conditions that might change as a result of global warming.We're now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers，which are sensitive to local and global environmental changes.We've programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate.If the rivers run faster in the future on average，the clock will get ahead of standard time.If they run slower，you'll see the opposite effect.
The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics.It's a sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame(时间框架)，and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones.Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet.Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies.
Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars，early agricultural societies also connected time to natural phenomena.In pre-Classical Greece，for instance，people“corrected”official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season.Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival.Likewise，river time and other timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness.
When St.Augustine admitted his inability to define time， he highlighted one of time 's most noticeable qualities：Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context.Any timekeeping system is valid，and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose.
31. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A. Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature.
B. Everyone can define time on their own terms.
C. The qualities of time vary with how you measure it.
D. Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists.
32. The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to__________.
A. present an assumption B. evaluate an argument
C. highlight an experiment D. introduce an approach
33. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life.
B. New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems..
C. Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower.
D. Modern technology may help to shape the rivers’ temporal frame.
34. What can we infer from this passage?
A. It is crucial to improve the definition of time.
B. A fixed frame will make time meaningless.
C. We should live in harmony with nature.
D. History is a mirror reflecting reality.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，共10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.选项中有两项为多余选项.
Music has long been considered to be an enjoyable pastime for many people. 35 The mental health benefits from music can't be argued.Music could also be helping you with many other health problems behind the scenes.
36 However, for the same reason, music can be very beneficial if one is in pain.By distracting (分心) the mind from the pain, music, people say, can lower stress and anxiety levels.This, of course, can lead to less pain.
Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed. 37 While the validity of the idea is still being assessed，the lowered stress can even be tied back to blood pressure.Similarly, according to researchers，listening to just 30 minutes of soft music every day may help with healthy blood sugar levels， through the lowering of stress and anxiety.
When it comes to heart health，there is speculation (推测) that it's not the style of music， but rather the tempo that makes it so good for your heart health.In one European study，participants listened to music as the researchers monitored their heart rates and blood pressure. 38 On the other hand，when the music slowed，the participants' stress and anxiety levels became lower and the effects on heart rates appeared to follow suit.
39 But there is a whole range of other health issues that turning up the radio could be beneficial for，which is what makes music so valuable.
A. This feeling can also result in many other health problems.
B. Some experts say that music can be harmful if it is too loud.
C. This idea is a little off-the-wall but still has scientific backing.
D. They say it can play a big role in calming the brain enough to sleep.
E. The implications of music on overall well-being are really impressive.
F. It is also highly popular due to the individualized effects on stress and anxiety.
G. Interestingly，the more cheerful the music was，the faster their heart rates were.
第三部分 书面表达(共两节，32分)
第一节(共4小题;第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分)
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题.请在答题卡指定区域作答.
Recent research suggests that if an argument gets resolved，the emotional response tied to it is significantly reduced or almost completely erased.Thus，it may be worth bringing up issues with your friends， family members，or classmates rather than holding them back.
There is a difference between arguing and fighting.Arguing is that you and your opponent present your concerns and discuss the feelings and issues related to those concerns.You can engage in an argument respectfully without stirring up(激起) anger.Fighting，however，usually involves personal attacks，raising of voices， and storming out.Discussing your issues and resolving them instead of stuffing them down can improve your emotional health.In a study，2.000 people were asked to record their feelings and experiences for eight days in a row.When people had an argument that they considered resolved， they had half the reactivity (情绪反应) of those who avoided an argument.Reactivity is an increase in negative emotions or a decrease in positive emotions.In other words，resolving an argument cuts your negative feelings by half.One day later， people who had a resolved argument reported no increase of negative emotions compared with those who avoided an argument. This means that resolving an argument can feel like you have reached a state of resolution—and you are less likely to be annoyed.
Moreover，the older you are，the more likely you will come to a resolution after an argument.This may be because more life experience usually leads to more defined priorities.You are more likely to distinguish between what matters and what does not.
It is easier to avoid a discussion，but risking talking about it may eventually lead to a better outcome.
40. According to this passage，what is arguing?
41. Why is it that“the older you are， the more likely you will come to a resolution after an argument”?
42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement，then underline it and explain why.
Resolving arguments can improve your emotional health，because it increases your reactivity and reduces the chance of you getting angry.
43. In addition to improving emotional health，what do you think are some other benefits of resolving an argument? (In about 40 words)

高考英语各题型的难点是什么
一、听力：
英语听力的难点在于第一节只放一遍听力材料，只有一次机会抓取关键信息;同时，听力第二节会存在陷阱，一定要在听完整段材料以后再选答案，不能只听一半就想当然。
二、阅读：
英语阅读的难点主要在于主旨大意题非常考察学生的总结归纳能力，其混淆选项也是考生失分的重灾区;英语阅读的细节理解题也非常考察学生的信息定位和查找能力，考生需要注意用时和定位的准确性。
三、七选五：
七选五非常考察考生的英语快速归纳和信息甄辨能力，回顾检查的难度也较大，而且一道题错的话就至少会有两道题错。
四、英语完形填空：
综合能力要求较高，考察词汇量和语法知识较多，需要从语境中推断关键信息
五、语法填空：
考察的英语语法知识较多，需要考生自己从上下文找到相关的线索，同时，短文填空需要自己填写单词/单词变体，考察考生的单词拼写
六、英语写作：
近年新高考改革，作文变成了两道题，题量变大，同时增加了话题的灵活性，增加了续写的新题型，英语写作难度提升。
高考英语应该怎样学习
1、每天早读课背单词，背笔记，以及相关单词的词组。高三英语其实主要是背单词，首先把高考的三千五百词全看一遍，然后再分首字母记忆。估计想要记住这些单词，可能需要花二个月的早读课。记住这些单词的最低标准是看到这个单词你就能说出它的中文意思。只要有了一些单词的积累，立马就能做阅读理解题了。
2、重视英语写作能力的训练。为了提高作文水平，高三的同学应该记熟词英语汇短语，掌握写作的基本句型，包括简单句的五种基本句型。当能够较好地掌握这几种简单句之后应适当地强化并列句，复合句。为了更好地给文章润色，还可以适当地运用英语高级词汇，非谓语动词，with结构，强调句，感叹句等。
3、制定英语学习计划。制定英语学习计划要注意四点：要有切实可行的目标、要把时间充分利用起来、遵循“要事第一”原则，要落实到行动上，锲而舍之，朽木不折;锲而不舍，金石可镂。只有把好的计划坚持执行下去，才能在学习中有所体现。
高考英语听力学习策略
1、听力工具与听力训练方法
对于英语听力，再好的方法，再好的工具如自己不多去听，都起不到作用;听力工具，我们可以选择复读机或电脑上的一些听力软件。
2、英语单词是听力的基础
词汇的积累是提高英语听力水平的基础，提到背单词很多同学都很反感。经常会听到同学说“我每天都背单词，可是我当时记住了，过不了多久就忘了，我忘了一遍又一遍，也记了一遍又一遍，反反复复，但是考试时效果还是不好，这个问题有解吗?”这个问题最直接的解决办法就是不断的重复记忆，只有不断重复记忆，才能加深印象不容易忘记。
3、英语阅读与听力练习比重相同
阅读应与听力练习同时，同比重的进行。很多人为提高英语听力把所有时间都集中在听力材料的练习上。我肯定的说，这是个错误。我们不是生活在国外，你无论怎样营造，都不能有一个真正的外国的文化氛围在你身边，这一个已经可以说明只注重单一的听力练习是错误的。
另外在练习英语听力的同时，要提高阅读量，这样才能相互促进。词汇量和语法是阅读的关键，阅读量的多少以及阅读能力的好坏决定听说能力的高低，而我们学习语言，又必须从听说开始。
