213267. （2024•西安八十五中•高一下期中）     A father who wants to help make a city one of the most autism （孤独症）-friendly places in the UK is creating a network of signs to help non-verbal （非言语的） children communicate in public spaces.
    Dan Harris，from Peterborough，whose son Joshie is autistic，has gained funding for 100 picture boards in the city.They help people communicate through images.He said， "We no longer want autism to be hidden."The communication boards include symbols representing common words and phrases that allow non-verbal people to communicate how they are feeling and what they want to do.
    The idea for the picture boards came from Mr Harris' son，Joshie，who points to pictures on an electronic tablet （平板电脑） to communicate.Mr Harris said， "He is a very clever little boy，but because he is non-verbal，he has to communicate using different methods.This communication board truly gives him a voice."
    Mr Harris got funding for the first communication board last year.Now government money has been secured through Peterborough City Council to create a network across the city and Mr Harris would like it to go further. "This is a proof of concept.There are about 3，000 autistic people in Peterborough and it's important that the needs of that community are met." He said he wanted to see the boards introduced across Britain and in other countries.The boards cost ￡6，000 and are funded through a combination （结合） of charity donations and local government funding.
    Mr Harris，who is also the founder of the charity Neurodiversity in Business，which works to raise more awareness，said， "This board is extremely important because it doesn't just help non-verbal people communicate，but it also promotes discussions." He also said that autism acceptance can only come after autism awareness.

201940. （2023•西安四十八中•一模） Horseback riding might not seem like a typical New York City activity，but one program has several horse farms throughout the city's busy districts.GallopNYC provides lessons to veterans（老兵） and people with disabilities — horseback riding is their therapy（疗法）.
   Olivia Diver visits the GallopNYC location in the Howard Beach neighborhood in Queens.Diver has only been riding horses for a few months，but saye's already felt the benefits. "It helped me come out of my comfort zone and be lesy and less in my shell，" she said.Trying something new shows her she can accomplish other things as well.

"The horse sees the world in the way somebody with post-traumatic stress disor-der （PTSD） might see the world，in a really guarded，sort of anxious way，" he explained. "So，somebody with PTSD and a horse can sort of partner together and see the world in the same way and kind of take care of each other." Horses can also help with physical disabilities.After two years of therapeutic riding，a teenager，who had so little core strength that his mother had to be in the bathtub with him，had enough core strength that he could be in the shower by himself.Wilson said， "The movement of the horse will loosen up muscles that might be really tight.And the movement helps stimulate other body parts and other muscles that you might not use. "
   "CallopNYC has about 1，000 people on is waitlist for lessons，but prioritizes people with disabilities and veterans.We believe that everybody benefits from the time on a horse，so if you want to ride a horse，come on，let's go，" Wilson said.Lessons are ﹩ 55，but the non-profit fundraises to help cover or lower the cost for customers who may need support.

22266. （2016•新课标•ll卷） A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.
Frank Hurley's pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week.In fact,they were shot from 1914through 1916，most of them after a disastrous shipwreck（海难），by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored in an ice chest,under freezing water,in the damaged wooden ship.
The ship was the Endurance,a small,tight,Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists,27men in all,to the southernmost shore of Antarctica's Weddell Sea.From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled（雪橇） across the continent.The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912but had died with his four companions on the march back.
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance,adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort.Scott's last journey,completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger,caught the world's imagination,and a film made in his honor drew crowds.Shackleton,a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley,a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic,was hired to make the images,most of which have never before been published.

33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley？
A．They were made last week
B．They showed undersea sceneries
C．They were found by a cameraman
D．They recorded a disastrous adventure
34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text？
A．Frank Hurley
B．Ernest Shackleton
C．Robert Falcon Scott
D．Caroline Alexander
35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914voyage？
A．Artistic creation
B．Scientific research
C．Money making
D．Treasure hunting.

202424. （2021•西安中学•七模） My doctor took me for a walk around the farm where she lives.I was physically and emotionally exhausted and discouraged by anxiety and depression.
   The place was full of life.There were insects，horses，rabbits and a cat.She told me to focus on my body in the environment.
   When I was ill，I tended to retreat into my mind and disconnect from here and now.So，when I met a horse named Fira，I expected nothing.
   As I got closer to Fira，she nuzzled her nose into my chest，putting a gentle pressure over my heart.Something happened inside me：I felt as if I had reached a wellspring of past hurts，fears and failings.I began to melt emotionally.
   I patted Fira's nose and breathed in her smell.I found I didn't have to concentrate on feeling better；Fira helped me feel loved and safe.
   I worked with Fira often，learning basic communication and leading methods to work together with her.Initially，I wasn't sure exactly what one would do with a horse except riding it.But I knew that Fira had touched me in an uncommon way and had made me feel better.She connected with me by responding to my emotional state and reflecting it back to me in an open，affectionate way.
   In my meetings with Fira，I found that I lost my usual self-consciousness，and I would focus entirely on communicating.
   I learned to live in the present，to focus on what was happening this day，in this moment，in this place.I learned to forget the past，with all its hurts.I learned to forget the future，which hasn't happened yet.When you stand beside a horse，you exist completely in the moment.
   With Fira by my side，I saw into a life in which trust comes first，and compassion follows.
   I found a deep peace in leading her along a path，by using my own power of intention to indicate whether to start，stop，turn left or turn right.I felt an inner quiet and even joy.My work with this horse was part of a journey out of a very dark night in my soul.

202224. （2022•临潼区•一模） Camelli's duty was simple：to give back to the community where she was raised.Warren，Ohio lies just thirteen miles north of Youngstown，the former center of steel production，and now one of the neediest cities in the country.Both cities' populations and its finance have been on the decline each year，with unemployment rates surpassing both the state and national average.
   But it wasn't always this way.Thirty years ago，when Camelli was a student at Howland High School，the school where she now teaches Advanced Placement Psychology，"The poorness level was around 6%，" she says.Today，it is closer to 40%.
   This financial condition influences everything from the way students learn，to their ability to deal with social and emotional issues.Knowing this，Camelli created Paw Pantry.Whether it's for food，clothes，school supplies or personal hygiene（卫生）products，students and their parents can go on the district's website and fill out a request form for Paw Pantry products.They can choose to pick their items up-or have them delivered-at school.
   Camelli mentioned Paw Pantry when she attended her high school activity in 2017.It made her former classmates aware of how their hometown has changed over the years. "soon，money started pouring in from all over the country，all over the world，" she says.
   In just a year and a half since the Paw Pantry began，Camelli has received plenty of non-perishable （不易变质的）food，clothing，lunch boxes，backpacks，school supplies-even home goods，including a refrigerator，a washer and dryer，and a stove.
   Camelli actively shows her students the power of connection. "I'm definitely kinder because of Ms.Camelli.Ms.Camelli is a mother，but she's also a mother figure for all of us".Blake says，"Ms.Camelli，you will never understand how happy this act of your caring had made me，" she added.
   Camelli is a community activist，a mental heath supporter，and by many people's standards，she's most certainly a hero，but she doesn't see herself that way.And that's what she as a teacher should do.

（1）What does the underlined word "neediest" in the first paragraph mean？
A．Liveliest.
B．Riskiest.
C．Remotest.
D．Poorest.
（2）What can we infer from the passage？
A．Paw Pantry didn't go well.
B．Paw Pantry gained much support.
C．Camelli was hopeful about Paw Pantry's future.
D．Many people treated Paw Pantry with doubt.
（3）How does Blake feel about Ms.Camelli？
A．Grateful.
B．Annoyed.
C．Unconcerned.
D．Confused.
（4）What can we learn about Camelli from the last paragraph？
A．She feels great about herself.
B．She won't continue her teaching career.
C．She thinks that she just does what a teacher does.
D．She doesn't think she has done enough.

202300. （2022•西工大附中•六模） Having worked for more than a decade in finance in the oil industry in Canada，Tori Fahey found herself wanting more from life.But it wasn't through desperation that her circumstances changed： "I didn't get fed up and storm off，nothing like that；it was curiosity about other interests and wanting to experience something new."
   Fahey left her job and completed an MBA before setting up her departure to New York to begin a degree.However，the opportunity for an open year between the MBA and the degree came up，and as a keen touring cyclist，Fahey realized that a dreamed-about adventure was now becoming a possibility： "The ride in Africa had been on my fantasy list.It was a moment when I realized that I could do anything，so I should."

   After gaining the degree，Fahey worked on projects with the UNDP （United Nations Development Program） in Montenegro with the aim of bringing investment to rural communities.
   It was while she was working on these projects that the seeds of the next new investment were sown. "It was through my trip across Africa that I discovered pannier and rack systems inconvenient and I was never going to use them again." Little did she know this would lead her to start up her own company.
   In 2013，Apidura was born，producing storage solutions for people looking to travel the world by bike，race across continents and carry all they need to do so.It's now a successfulglobal brand，but Fahey remains reflective，curious about what else the company can do for people.

202330. （2022•交大附中•七模） If you enjoy American stories，you'll have noticed that many of them take place on the road.Many famous American novels are about stories that occur while their characters are traveling along highways.These novels are often celebrations of American life.
   Jesmyn Ward's National Book Award winner Sing，Unburied，Sing is a road novel，but not a celebration.The road journey here is through Mississippi，as an African-American mother and her two children travel to collect her white husband as he's released from jail.
   Neither the mother，Leonie，nor the father，Michael，are ideal parents.Leonie in particular is so full of anger and regret that she takes out her unhappiness on her children，the 13-year-old Jojo and his little sister Kayla.
   The telling of the story is divided between various narrators.Jojo，the boy，is the most sympathetic of them.But it is worrying to read about how he experiences the world.Even though he's young，he's already experienced the dark side of life.The opening sentence of the book gives a sense of Jojo's unnatural maturity-"I like to think I know what death is.I like to think that I could look at it straight."
   But who，or what，is to blame for these sad circumstances？For Ward，it's clearly the past.She admires the work of fellow novelist William Faulkner.When she thinks about the past，she's of the same mind as him.
   Faulkner famously wrote， "The past is never dead.It's not even past." At one point，Ward says that her characters are "pulling the past with them." like a too-heavy trailer（拖车） coupled to the car，as they journey on through Mississippi to the jailhouse.The biggest part of this past，of course，is racism—the remains of slavery-which is always there，and ruining life.
   This is probably why The Washington Post listed Sing，Unburied，Sing as one of its 10 choices of 2017's Best Books. "The misery of this one family is tied to crimes that stretch over decades，" wrote the newspaper.

（1）What can we learn about Sing，Unburied，Sing from the text？
A．It was recently adapted as a film.
B．It's a celebration of American life.
C．It is a story of a road trip through Mississippi.
D．It's one of 2017's best-selling American novels.
（2）According to the text，the character Jojo        .
A．is the main narrator of the novel
B．is unusually mature for his age
C．presents less sympathy than others
D．is the youngest child in the family
（3）What is the root cause of the family's difficulty according to the text？
A．The unhappy marriage of the parents.
B．The experience of being in prison.
C．The lack of financial support.
D．The existence of racism.
（4）Why is William Faulkner's line mentioned in the text？
A．To prove Ward shares a similar opinion of the past with him.
B．To show Ward has drawn a lot of inspiration from him.
C．To show Ward is as great a novelist as he is.
D．To compare Ward's writing style with his.

202348. （2021•西安中学•五模） Unless your parent is a head chef or bento box（便当盒）master，school lunch is usually nothing to write home about.For artist and father Dominick Cabalo，however，his son Nicholas' lunches are an oil painting cloth for creativity.Cabalo makes carefully designed drawings on each of 12-year-old Nicholas' paper lunch bags，usually representing popular lively characters and colorful superheroes.
   Cabalo began drawing on the bags about three years ago to help Nicholas make new friends in elementary school. "I noticed he was a bit shy when it came to talking to others，" he said. "So by creating a piece of artwork to 'break the ice'，kids would come up to him and start talking and hopefully a conversation，or better yet，a new friendship，would start."
   Though Nicholas is in middle school now，he still asks his dad to draw on the lunch bags，and will make requests for characters or drawings that he'd like to see on the next bag.Cabalo has drawn about 400 lunch bags in the past three years.He explained that the bags had really helped his son become more confident at school. "He's broken out of hiell because of this，and I like to think that I had a hand in helping him do this with these bags." he wrote.
   Nicholas keeps most of the bags. "Some come back in better condition than others，" Cabalo said. "We may lose one due to the occasional wet sandwich or leaky drink，but that's to be expected." As for the bags that make it home undamaged，Cabalo posts their photos to social media.His favorites are the more time-consuming series of bags that can be joined up to create a larger image，such as the "Finding Nemo" triptych（三联画）.

（1）What special feature makes Nicholas' lunch bags distinguished？
A．Delicious food cooked by a head chef.
B．Beautiful oil paintings produced by artists.

202367. （2021•西安中学•四模） Learning to say "yes，and"
When I first heard about the improvisation （即兴交流） class，I was hesitating.As a quiet and shy girl，I feared improvising in front of strangers.However，I knew I wanted to work as a science communicator after finishing my Ph.D.，so it seemed like a perfect opportunity to learn how to speak and communicate with others effectively.I signed up，knowing the experience would give me help.
   During our first class，we learned an important concept of improvisation："yes，and." It means that，as improvisers，we'd better accept what fellow performers say.If someone says that rhinos（犀牛）are librarians，for example，then rhinos are librarians.We do not question the logic；we say "yes" and then continue with the scene as if nothing is wrong.
   The first few scenes were hard，but as weeks turned into months，I became more comfortable and even started to enjoy our classes.I became better at listening，relating to my conversation partners，and communicating clearly in the moment.Once when I was giving a presentation about my science，an audience member surprised me with a question that didn't grow out of the information I'd presented.Instead of getting confused and nervous，I took the "yes，and" approach-accepting the question and letting my mind focus on why it was asked.That helped me find an appropriate answer.I got pretty excited about it.
   The benefits of improvisation go beyond communication.Before attending the class，I would get stuck when my experiments produced unexpected data，thinking that I had made a mistake.But now，instead of getting discouraged，I will stay open to the possibility that the results are real，keep exploring the data and end up identifying a new type of cell-one that isn't behaving as expected.
   I think all scientists can benefit from this lesson.If the data say rhinos are librarians，then it's worth finding out whether rhinos are，in fact，librarians.As scientists，our job isn't to challenge data that support a preconceived （先入为主的）story，but to say "yes，and."

（1）Why did the author attend the improvisation class？
A．To get a different experience.
B．To finish her Ph.D.at university.
C．To give up her job as a science communicator.
D．To improve her speaking and communicating ability.
（2）What was the author's change after attending the improvisation class？
A．She formed her own idea quickly.
B．She came up with lots of creative responses.
C．She paid more attention to the logic of answers.
D．She became a good listener before giving an opinion.
（3）The author mentions applying the "yes，and" approach to her scientific experiments to        .
A．explain the process of using the method
B．prove the benefits of the improvisation class
C．share her own research experiences with readers
D．attract fellow scientists to attend the improvisation class
（4）What can be inferred about scientists from the last paragraph？
A．They should attend the improvisation class.
B．They should question all preconceived ideas.
C．They should carry on research by admitting earlier data.
D．They should try to improve their professional knowledge.

202369. （2021•西安中学•四模） One day，gardeners might not just hear the buzz of bees among their flowers，but the whirr of robots，too.Scientists have managed to turn an unassuming drone （无人机） into a remote-controlled pollinator （授粉媒介） by attaching horsehairs coated with a special，sticky gel to its underbelly.
   Animal pollinators are needed for the reproduction of 90% of flowering plants and one third of human food crops.Chief among those are bees - but many bee populations in the United States have been in steep decline in recent decades.Thus，the decline of bees isn't just worrisome because it could disrupt ecosystems，but also because it could disrupt agriculture and economy.People have been trying to come up with replacement techniques，but none of them are especially effective yet.
   Scientists have thought about using drones，but they haven't figured out how to make free-flying robot insects that can rely on their own power source without being attached to a wire. "It's very tough work，" said senior author Eijiro Miyako，a chemist at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology.His particular contribution to the field involves a gel，one he'd considered a mistake 10 years before and stuck in a storage cabinet.When it was rediscovered a decade later，it hadn't dried up or degraded at all. "I was so surprised because it still had high viscosity，" Miyako said.
   The chemist noticed that when dropped，the gel absorbed an impressive amount of dust from the floor.Miyako realized this material could be very useful for picking up pollen （花粉）.He and his colleagues chose a drone and attached horsehairs to its smooth surface to mimic a bee's fuzzy body.They coated those horsehairs in the gel，and then controlled the drones over lilies，where they would pick up the pollen from one flower and then deposit the pollen at another one，thus fertilizing it.
   The scientists looked at the hairs under a scanning electron microscope and counted up the pollen grains attached to the surface and found that the drones whose horsehairs had been coated with the gel had about 10 times more pollen than those that had not been coated with the gel.
   Miyako does not think such drones would replace bees altogether，but could simply help bees with their pollinating duties.There's a lot of work to be done before that's a reality，however.Small drones will need to become more controllable and energy efficient，as well as smarter，with better GPS and artificial intelligence.

（1）What does the underlined word "viscosity" in Para.3 probably mean？
A．Hardness.
B．Stickiness.
C．Flexibility.
D．Purity.
（2）We can learn from the passage that        .
A．bees disrupt both agriculture and economy
B．scientists have invented self-powered robot insects
C．bees in the United States are on the edge of extinction
D．Miyako found the special feature of the gel by chance
（3）A drone works best in picking up pollen when        .
A．its body is made like a bee's
B．its GPS works more efficiently
C．some flowers are coated with the gel
D．horsehairs with the gel are attached to it
（4）According to Eijiro Miyako，the drones        .
A．are not yet ready for practical use
B．may eventually replace bees in the future
C．are much more efficient than bee pollinators
D．can provide a solution to economic depression

202462. （2021•西安中学•九模） I'd done it before，and so I had no reason to believe that this time would be any different.I was sure that when I returned home from my mission trip.As always，I'd bring back nothing more than some mud on my boots.A hole or two in my jeans and，of course，a lot of great memories.
   The summer before my high school graduation，I went to West Virginia with others as volunteers to repair the homes of those in need.Arriving at our destination，my group was assigned the task of rebuilding sections of a home that had been damaged by fire.No sooner had we parked on the home's dirt driveway than we saw an excited little girl，no more than six years old，standing in the doorway of the family's temporary home.Shoeless and wearing dirty clothes and the biggest smile I'd ever seen，she yelled， "Ma，Ma，they really came!" I didn't know it then，but her name was Dakota，and four more days would pass before she'd say another word near me.
   Behind Dakota was a woman in a wheelchair - her grandmother，we'd soon learn.I also discovered that my job that week would be to help change a fire-damaged dining room into a bedroom for this little girl.Over the following days，I noticed Dakota peeking at us every now and then as we worked.A few times，I tried talking with her，but she remained shy and distant，always flying around us like a tiny butterfly but keeping to herself.
   By our fifth and final day，however，this was about to change.Before I went to work on her home on that last morning，I spoke for a moment or two with the grandmother.I was especially pleased when she told me how much Dakota loved her new room - so much.As we talked，I noticed something I hadn't seen before - Dakota was hiding behind her grandmother.
   Cautiously，she stepped into view，and I could see that just like her clothes，her face was still dirty.But no amount of soil could hide those bright blue eyes and the big smile.She was simply adorable.Slowly，she began walking toward me.It wasn't until she was just inches away that I noticed the folded piece of paper in her tiny hand.Silently，she reached up and handed it to me.Once unfolded，I looked at the drawing she'd made with her broken crayons on the back of an old coloring book cover.It was of two girls - one much taller than the other - and they were holding hands.She told me it was supposed to be me and her，and on the bottom of the paper were three little words that instantly broke my heart.Now almost in tears，I couldn't control myself anymore - I bent down and hugged her.She hugged me，too.And for the longest time，neither of us could let go.
   I left for home early the next morning.I was returning with muddy boots and holes in my jeans.But because of Dakota，I brought back something else，too - a greater appreciation for all or the blessings of my life.I'll never forget that barefoot little butterfly with the big smile and dirty face.I pray that she'll never forget me either.

202519. （2021•西安中学•二模） It was our last class before summer break.I was finishing the first year of an MFA program in poetry.I was tired and puzzled. "Was I good enough to be in the program？" When the professor asked about our summer plans，I panicked.I didn't want to appear idle. "Gardening，" I responded immediately.Actually I knew nothing about plants!My professor nodded and said，"What a good idea，Mary!Emily Dickinson loved gardening." Emily Dickinson lived in the countryside，studying plant as a child.I was in my late twenties，living in the city without gardening experience.
   A few days later，I bought a jalape?o seedling（青辣椒秧苗）.At least I could say I'd tried gardening.I watered and changed the dirt for my little plant.I even talked to it.And over the summer，it grew bigger and bigger.I was proud.Maybe I didn't have a black thumb after all.
   I started the second year of my MFA，and then it was almost December and my jalape?o was suffering.It was brown in some places；many of its leaves had fallen.Would my little guy make it？I prayed， "Please be okay，" as if its survival was closely linked to mine.
   I worked hard in school.Spring came.My jalape?o plant came back to life.It grew bigger，with new leaves.And then it flowered.I handed in my graduate paper，a book of poems，in May. "Your poems are strong，" my professor said.
   A huge weight lifted.I'd done it!At that time，I found the flowers on my jalape?o plant were gone.I watched closer.A tiny green fruit pushed through where a flower had been.I smiled.I had succeeded in my MFA program，and my jalape?o plant had grown right beside me，and I successfully did things I hadn't thought possible.
