(2023·湖北·华中师大一附中校考模拟预测)For most graduating students, the college-admission season, usually in July and August, is a nervous time that is often described as a life-changing moment.
An anxious 18-year-old Peng Lanxi got his admission letter from Hunan University of Science and Technology on July 26, bringing his dream closer-making prosthetic limbs (假肢) more advanced and accessible to people like him. His mother Wang Chunmei couldn’t hold back her tears because she knew how her son had overcome the difficulties.
Peng Lanxi lost his legs in a car accident in 2005, when he was a baby. Having learned to walk using just his hands, he enjoys life as much as the teenagers around him. On his wheelchair, he plays basketball and badminton. Once a week, he goes for a 40-minute swim, and his best time for 100 meters is one minute and 15 seconds.
“I believe that obstacles (障碍) are there to be conquered. Someone says that life is like a mirror, and we get the best results when we smile at it,” Peng Lanxi says.
His story has gone viral (在网上快速传播的) on social media platform Sina Weibo, which has been viewed more than 19 million times and he won admiration from its users for his courage, determination and hard work. A user named Shuangpi comments that Peng lost his legs, but he doesn’t let that get in his way.
The official account of Hunan University of Science and Technology on the platform has even commented, “Welcome Peng to the university.” Lu Ming says that the school will help Peng to pursue his dream—to be a prosthetics engineer, a career that will change lives. Peng is not alone, as authorities have improved the presence of disabled people on mainstream campuses in recent years. 14,559 students facing physical challenges entered college last year. From 2016 to 2020, about 57,500 special needs students were admitted into universities, a more than 50 percent increase compared with the 2011-2015 period. 24.Why did Wang Chunmei burst into tears?
A.Her son can act like a healthy person.
B.Her son’s achievement was a shock to her.
D.$63.00.
C.Her son succeeded after too much difficulty. D.She hoped to put on prosthetic limbs for her son. 25.What can we know about Peng Lanxi from the third paragraph?
A.His bitter childhood. C.His positive attitude to life. 26.What caused Peng Lanxi to be popular?
A.His mother.
B.His talents.
B.His game experience.
D.His preference for various sports.
C.His hard work. D.Shuangpi’s comment.
27.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Lu Ming was once in charge of admission. B.Prosthetics engineers can find jobs much easier. C.Disabled people at universities are looked down on.
D.Being admitted into the university will contribute to Peng Lanxi’s future.

(2023·福建泉州·统考一模)After being driven to near extinction, wolves are back in Washington state. Wolf 32M, called The Old Guy by wolf specialist Ben Maletzke, lived some 12 years as the patriarch (族长) of the Teanaway Pack, kicking off the recovery of wolves in Washington. The pack’s territory was roasted by wildfire in 2014. But wolf 32M and his family remained in existence, bringing the call of the wild back for the first time in a century. These wolves are what Maletzke calls stepping stones in recovery — the animals that could help lead the way to new territory not yet repopulated by wolves.
Wolves spread to new territory to find mates and begin packs of their own. It is this pack dynamic that wildlife biologists are counting on, in time, to urge wolves into areas where they do not presently live. “We just need a couple to pick up and go,” Maletzke says.
All along, the Teanaway pack has stayed mostly out of trouble probably, helped by a lot of range riding (牧区巡逻) intended to help reduce conflicts over wolf recovery by keeping wolves away from cattle. “He is an example of wolves living and doing what they do, even around people,” Maletzke says of wolf 32M.
Story Warren, a student at the University of Montana, was just a girl when she first saw 32M’s tracks in the Teanaway River Valley — an exciting encounter that helped generate a serious interest in wildlife that now fuels her studies. To her, the return of the wolf is about more than the species; it is about recovering something even bigger: hope.
“Growing up in my generation, there is so much bad ecological news, a lot of hopelessness about climate change and loss of biodiversity and extinctions,” Warren says, “To have something as wild as wolves coming back to Washington is very encouraging for me — just to know such an amazing and powerful creature exists.” 28.Why does Maletzke call Wolf 32M family “stepping stones”?
A.They are nearly dying out. C.They are worth protection. 29.What function does paragraph 3 serve?
A.To present a result. C.To offer an explanation.
B.To clarify a concept. D.To make a prediction B.They are victims of wildfire. D.They are pioneers in wolf recovery.
30.What can be learned from the example of the Teanaway pack?
A.Wolves face a lot of trouble.
B.Wolf recovery counts on its population.
C.Certain measures to ensure cattle safety are required. D.Wolves should be forbidden from human residence. 31.What does Warren think of the coming back of wolves?
A.It fuels more studies on wildlife. C.It worsens climate change.
B.It clears up bad ecological news. D.It excites hope for the ecosystem.

(2023·福建泉州·福建省德化第一中学校联考一模)In a recent study, researchers burned scented candles (香薰蜡烛) in several rooms — ranging from a small bathroom measuring 6 by 6 by 9 feet to a living room measuring 15 by 15 by 9 feet — and then used special instruments to determine what was released into the air. They found that while some cancer-causing chemicals were produced, the highest levels measured after four hours of continuous burning were less than half as high as the recommended indoor air quality limits set by the World Health Organization.
This led the study authors to conclude that under normal conditions, scented candles won’t pose any health risks. It’s important to note that only a small number of studies have looked into the health effects of burning scented candles. And most, including this one, were conducted by researchers sponsored by the candle industry, but health authorities have claimed that the authors findings are solid.
“When candles burn, they release chemicals in relatively insignificant concentrations,” said Pamela Dalton, a researcher at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia. “The amount of unpleasant materials produced in general is on the order of a few parts per million or even parts per billion, which is like pouring a teaspoon’s worth of a chemical into an Olympic-sized swimming pool.”
“Exposure to chemicals released by scented candles is so low that they pose no significant risk to human health,” said Nikaeta Sadekar, an expert with the nonprofit Research Institute for Fragrance Materials.“Even the highest users of scented candles are not putting themselves at any considerable risk of harm.”
According to Dr. Dalton, humans can detect a pleasant smell at very low concentrations. “We’ve been told that we’re at the low end of the animal kingdom in terms of being able to detect various smells. That’s just not true,” she said. “Our nose can often smell things in the air even when they are barely there. When we smell something, it just smells strong. We tend to automatically assume that what we’re breathing represents a high concentration. And very often that’s not the case.”
32.What did researchers do after they burned scented candles?
A.They removed some cancer-causing chemicals. B.They used instruments to clean the air for hours. C.They checked to see which one lasted the longest. D.They measured air quality in rooms of various sizes 33.What does the author tell us about the study’s conclusion?
A.It has been supported by officials. B.It is based on unsponsored research. C.It may be misleading for the candle industry. D.It goes against findings from previous studies. 34.Which statement would Dalton and Sadekar agree with?
A.It is a bit risky to burn scented candles in small rooms B.Some new types of scented candles are cancer-causing C.It is quite safe to use scented candles on a regular basis. D.Burning scented candles won’t produce unpleasant materials 35.What did Dalton say about human sense of smell?
A.It needs to be improved. C.It has been generally poor.
B.It is very sensitive. D.It is often changeable.

(2024·浙江·模拟预测)A 2021 report from Habitat for Humanity International found that SDG 11.1 was actually regressing. We are seeing stagnation instead of progress toward the goal.
Governments must prioritize adequate housing, especially for those struggling to survive in today’s overcrowded settlements. 36
Here are three steps that governments — and leaders in both the public and private sectors — can take to alleviate this growing housing crisis:
1. Prioritize land tenure (占有) security
Ensure residents of informal settlements have secure rights to the land they inhabit.
This has already happened on a large scale in countries such as Honduras, where civil society organizations and governments came together to form diverse commissions that developed policy recommendations around housing and land, negotiating approval of the recommendations and then monitoring their implementation. 37 .
2. 38
For residents of Freetown’s informal settlements and countless other cities, traditional avenues of housing finance are simply not accessible. 39 They exhibit similar characteristics to traditional mortgage loans, but their smaller size helps make them more accessible to families with lower incomes.
3. Strengthen climate-resilient housing
40 .The public and private sectors can work together to support and invest in community start-ups specializing in low-cost, climate-resilient homes and locally sourced building materials. For example, an NGO based in Sierra Leone, Home Leone, has over the past 5 years been developing affordable housing utilizing low-cost construction techniques, and providing facilities to meet the basic needs of communities and an integrated approach to housing development for low-income communities.
We must act now to pave a stronger foundation for the more than 10 billion people expected to inhabit our cities by 2050. This starts with the urgent improvement of housing in rapidly expanding informal settlements worldwide. This long-overdue investment will more than pay for itself by building more prosperous and equitable communities for generations to come.
A.Expand finance for housing B.Revolutionize mortgage loans
C.Informal settlements are highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change
D.That means increasing financial commitments by an order of magnitude and making meaningful policy changes.
E.But the situation has changed a lot.
F.Through their technical assistance, more than 1 million people have improved access to their land rights G.Microloans offer hope by providing individuals with the means to access capital for housing improvements and upgrades.

At age 10, I stood in front of my new class, my new classmates looking at me with mild interest as my teacher introduced me. I joined in the middle of the school year. There were 41 students in my new class. I was the 42nd.
All my classmates sat in pairs except for this one girl, Kate. I went and sat down next to her and gave her a small, uncertain smile. She smiled in return. The class started and we didn’t talk until lunch time. At lunch time, I pulled out my lunch box, packed by my mother. It had fried rice with home-made cakes and a small box of fruits. Clearly my mom had spent time packing this yummy lunch. This girl took out a small box with bread butter inside. In India, it’s pretty rare for kids to just get bread butter for lunch. The only time I had bread butter for lunch was if my mom was unwell. So I thought that was what the problem here was. I offered her a small part of my lunch and forgot all about it. The next day, she again had bread butter. Well, I thought, her mother might have fallen ill, so she was taking time to recover. I again offered her a part of my lunch. This went on for a week. Then one day, I asked the one question that I shouldn’t have. “Is your mom not well?”
In fact, I wasn’t prepared for the answer. Later, I knew that her mother, who worked in a supermarket, was in poor health. She constantly stayed at home with no income. I didn’t know what to do. So I did the most obvious thing. I went home and told my mom that my lunch wasn’t enough and I still felt hungry after eating it. My mom started packing a bigger lunch. And in school, I’d tell Kate that my mom had packed me a lunch too big, so could she please help me finish it? Then I asked her what her favorite dish was. “Naan,” she whispered. 注意:
