Tiny forests were first pioneered as a concept in the 1970s by Dr Miyawaki, a Japanese botanist. As he went on to share his concept with others, the idea soon took off in India and other countries before eventually reaching Europe, where it became popular in places like France, Belgium and the Netherlands.
In a Tiny Forest, there must be a minimum of 600 trees, and the trees are planted much closer together and without chemicals or fertilisers (肥料). There are usually around 30 different kinds of all-native tree species (物种). This variety, coupled with the fact that tiny forests grow up to ten times faster than standard forests, means they attract a rich abundance of wildlife. It’s also thought that these places could help reduce the risk of flooding, remove carbon from the atmosphere and fight climate change, as well as improving the mental health of those living locally.

I mean to make an actual phone call — not to shelter from the rain. Ages ago, right? The last time I used a phone box for its intended purpose was…2006. I was conducting auditions (试演) for my play in my tiny old shared house in London. Hoping to impress some talented actors to come and work for me for nothing, I spread some throws over the sofas and lit candles to make it seem a bit more ”young professional”.As I rushed outdoors to empty the wastepaper baskets, the door swung shut behind me. Suddenly I was lockedoutside. My mobile phone was inside, but luckily there was a telephone box across the street. So, I called Directory Assistance, got put through to our landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent to me with just enough time to get back in before the actors arrived.As it has been many years since I last used one, I should hardly be surprised that then are no longer any public telephones near my house. The last one standing has just been turn into a “mini community library”: any passer-by can “borrow” a book from its shelves return it later, or replace it with another title from their own collection.For a few months after the “library” opened, I didn’t bother taking a look, as I had assumed that it would be stuffed full of cheese love stories. Then I noticed fork conducting spring cleans dropping boxes of voluminous books on various subjects there. And these books were free. This unbeatable price-point encouraged me to experiment with dozens of titles that I would never normally consider buying. And I’ve discovered some great books!If I ever get trapped outside my house again, my local telephone box will, sadly no longer be able to connect me with my keys. But it can certainly keep me entertained while I wait for my wife to rescue me.4.What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?A.The play.B.The shared house.C.The sofa.D.The telephone box.5.Why did the author use the telephone box in 2006?A.To place an urgent call.B.To put up a notice.C.To shelter from the rain.D.To hold an audition.6.What do we know about the “mini community library”?A.It provides phone service for free.B.Anyone can contribute to its collection.C.It is popular among young readers.D.Books must be returned within a month.7.Why did the author start to use the “library”?A.He wanted to borrow some love stories.B.He was encouraged by a close neighbour.C.He found there were excellent free books.D.He thought it was an ideal place for reading.On September 7, 1991, the costliest hailstorm (雹暴) in Canadian history hit Calgary’s southern suburbs. As a result, since 1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about $2 million per year on the Alberta Hail Suppression Project. Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain before they can grow into dangerous hailstones. But farmers in east-central Alberta — downwind of the hail project flights — worry that precious moisture (水分) is being stolen from their thirsty land by the cloud seeding.Norman Stienwand, who farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings on this issue for years. “Basically, the provincial government is letting the insurance companies protect the Calgary-Edmonton urban area from hail,” Mr.Stienwand says, “but they’re increasing drought risk as far east as Saskatchewan.”The Alberta hail project is managed by Terry Krauss, a cloud physicist who works for Weather Modification Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota. “We affect only a very small percentage of the total moisture in the air, so we cannot be causing drought.” Dr. Krauss says. “In fact, we may be helping increase the moisture downwind by creating wetter ground.”One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas,” Dr. Doswell says. “Does cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind? No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “It would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice, doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.8.What does the project aim to do?A.Conserve moisture in the soil.B.Forecast disastrous hailstorms.C.Prevent the formation of hailstones.D.Investigate chemical use in farming.9.Who are opposed to the project?A.Managers of insurance companies.B.Farmers in east-central Alberta.C.Provincial government officials.D.Residents of Calgary and Edmonton.10.Why does Dr. Doswell mention the tornadoes he saw in 1999?A.To compare different kinds of seeding methods.B.To illustrate the development of big hailstorms.C.To show the link between storms and moisture.D.To indicate a possible danger of cloud seeding.11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Scientific studies have proved Stienwand right.B.Cloud-seeding companies will continue to exist.C.The doubt about cloud seeding has disappeared.D.Private climate engineering is illegal in Canada.The Stanford marshmallow (棉花糖) test was originally conducted by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a nursery school were placed in a room. A single sugary treat, selected by the child, was placed on a table. Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat, they would be given a second treat. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies with the children later in life showed a connection between an ability to wait long enough to obtain a second treat and various forms of success.As adults we face a version of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted by sugary treats, but by our computers, phones, and tablets — all the devices that connect us to the global delivery system for various types of information that do to us what marshmallows do to preschoolers.We are tempted by sugary treats because our ancestors lived in a calorie-poor world, and our brains developed a response mechanism to these treats that reflected their value — a feeling of reward and satisfaction. But as we’ve reshapedthe world around us, dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories, we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago, and this mismatch is at the heart of why so many of us struggle to resist tempting foods that we know we shouldn’t eat.A similar process is at work in our response to information. Our formative environment as a species was information-poor, so our brains developed a mechanism that prized new information. But global connectivity has greatly changed our information environment. We are now ceaselessly bombarded (轰炸) with new information. Therefore, just as we need to be more thoughtful about our caloric consumption, we also need to be more thoughtful about our information consumption, resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food” in order to manage our time most effectively.12.What did the children need to do to get a second treat in Mischel’s test?A.Take an examination alone.B.Share their treats with others.C.Delay eating for fifteen minutes.D.Show respect for the researchers.13.According to Paragraph 3, there is a mismatch between_______.A.the calorie-poor world and our good appetites B.the shortage of sugar and our nutritional needsC.the tempting foods and our efforts to keep fit D.the rich food supply and our unchanged brains14.What does the author suggest readers do?A.Be selective information consumers.B.Absorb new information readily.C.Use diverse information sources.D.Protect the information environment.15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Eat Less, Read More B.The Later, the BetterC.The Marshmallow Test for Grownups D.The Bitter Truth about Early HumansIn the past few years, online learning has become a significant part of the university and college experience. 16 But are all online courses created equal? How can you be sure that digital learning is right for you? 17 We interviewed students and professors to get their advice about online courses, The most obvious advantage of online learning is that you can study anywhere and anytime. 18 “I think a point that many people lose sight of is how easy it can be to fall behind schedule,” says graduate student Amanda Bindman. Before choosing to study online, consider whether you’re a self-motivated learner and if the material seems interesting enough to keep you going.The tip that comes up most often is simple: build online courses into your weekly schedule, just like what you would do with in person courses. 19 He noted that his online students usually end up with lower grades. It is so easy to let an online course slide, but your grades will suffer as a result. Be sure to schedule set times to watch your lectures, read materials and contribute to online discussion boards.20 A social connection is often a big part of learning. There are things you can do to ease this problem. Jessica Pink, an undergraduate student, suggests taking online courses with a friend, so you can motivate each other to stay on track. You can also find students on the class discussion board to organize a study group, or schedule in-person meeting swith your professor to discuss course concepts.A.But that doesn’t mean there aren’t deadlines.B.Your motivation should be your main concern.C.Do you know that online courses are also part of your education?D.Professor Alex Davidson teaches the same course in person and online.E.The chief complain t about online courses is that they lack human interaction.F.If you take an online course, what can you do to ensure the best possible grade?G.A survey found that 29 percent of college students registered for online courses.二、完形填空While taking a 20-hour train ride along the edge of the Taklimakan Desert in northwestern China, I had the kind of humbling, educational, and above all else, wonderful 21 with a local that all travelers long for. A young Chinese man 22 me on the train.

Reading Comprehension - Section AFirst QuestionPassage:The Importance of SleepIn today’s fast-paced world, it is easy to overlook the importance of sleep. Sleep is not just a time when the body rests; it is a crucial period during which the brain processes new information and memories. According to recent studies, getting adequate sleep is essential for cognitive function and overall health.Researchers have found that sleep plays a key role in learning and memory consolidation. During deep sleep, the brain strengthens connections between neurons, which helps encode new information into long-term memory. Furthermore, a good night’s rest can improve problem-solving skills and creativity. Sleep deprivation, on the other hand, can lead to decreased cognitive performance, irritability, and an increased risk of accidents.For optimal health benefits, experts recommend that adults aim for seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Adolescents require even more, as their growingbodies need additional rest to support physical development and mental health. Establishing a regular sleep schedule and creating a sleep-conducive environment can help individuals achieve better quality sleep.Despite these findings, many people still sacrifice sleep for work, social activities, or screen time. It is important to prioritize sleep and recognize its value in maintaining overall well-being. By making sleep a priority, individuals can enhance their ability to learn, think creatively, and stay healthy.Questions:1、What does the passage primarily discuss?2、According to the passage, what happens during deep sleep?3、How many hours of sleep do experts recommend for adults per night?4、What might be the consequence of not prioritizing sleep according to the text?Answers:1、The importance of sleep for cognitive function and overall health.2、The brain strengthens connections between neurons, helping encode new information into long-term memory.3、Seven to nine hours of sleep per night.4、Decreased cognitive performance, irritability, and an increased risk of accidents.第二题Reading PassageIn the small coastal town of Seaview, the annual Sea Festival was a grand event that brought together residents and tourists from all over the country.

The advent of e-books and online databases has not diminished their importance but rather reshaped it.The physical space of libraries now includes quiet study areas, computer labs equipped with internet access, and multimedia zones where patrons can explore resources beyond the printed page. Libraries have become a place for community engagement, offering workshops on various topics such as digital literacy, job skills, and even arts and crafts.Moreover, librarians have taken on new roles as facilitators of learning and knowledge. They assist patrons in navigating vast amounts of information available both offline and online, ensuring that the community is well-informed and digitally literate. In this evolving landscape, libraries remain crucial not only for personal development but also for fostering a sense of community and shared learning.Questions1. What change has occurred in the role of libraries due to the rapid advancement of digital technology?A. Libraries have become less important.B. Libraries have stopped providing books.C.

The rise of the internet has revolutionized our lives, making it easier than ever to connect with others and to find the information we need. However, these changes have also brought about challenges, such as information overload and privacy concerns.The following passage discusses the impact of the internet on our lives and the steps we can take to navigate these challenges.Passage:The internet has become an integral part of our daily lives. We use it for everything from checking the weather to ordering groceries. This has made it possible for us to access information and communicate with others from anywhere in the world. However, this convenience comes with a price. We are now bombarded with more information than ever before, and it can be difficult to separate the useful from the useless.One of the biggest challenges of the internet is information overload. With so much information available, it can be hard to know where to start. This can lead to confusion and frustration. Additionally, the ease of sharing informationonline has made it easier for false information to spread. This can have serious consequences, such as influencing elections and causing panic.Another challenge is privacy. The internet has made it possible for companies to collect vast amounts of personal data. This can be used to target us with advertisements and to manipulate our behavior. We must be vigilant about protecting our personal information online.Despite these challenges, the internet offers many benefits. It has made it easier to connect with friends and family, to learn new things, and to access information that was previously unavailable. To navigate these challenges, we can take several steps. We can use tools to filter out the noise and focus on the information that is most important to us. We can also be more careful about the information we share online and the websites we visit.Questions:1、What is the main idea of the passage?A. The internet has made our lives easier.B. The internet has brought about both benefits and challenges.C. We should avoid using the internet.D. The internet is only useful for shopping.2、What is the main challenge mentioned in the passage regarding the internet?A. Lack of information.B. Information overload.C. No privacy.D. Too many advertisements.3、According to the passage, what can be done to address information overload?A. Stop using the internet.B. Use tools to filter out the noise.C. Share more information online.D. Ignore the information that is not important.4、What is the author’s attitude towards the internet?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Indifferent.D. Critical but hopeful.Answers:1、B2、B3、B4、D四、阅读第二节(12.5分)Part IV Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.The Power of KindnessIn a world where competition and success are highly valued, it is easy to overlook the power of kindness. Kindness is more than just an act of goodwill; it can have a profound impact on individuals and communities alike. Research has shown that kindness not only improves our health and well-being but also helps create stronger bonds between people.In a study conducted by the University of California, researchers found that when people perform acts of kindness, their brains release endorphins, creating a positive feeling known as the “helper’s high.” This means that not only do the recipients of kind acts benefit from them, but also those who perform them.Moreover, kindness can be contagious. When we see someone else performing a kind act, we are more likely to do the same, which leads to a ripple effect of positive actions. This was evident in a viral video where a man helped an elderly woman cross the street, inspiring others to offer assistance to those in need.However, kindness should not be confused with naivety or weakness. It requires strength and courage to be kind, especially when it is not reciprocated. True kindness comes from the heart and does not expect anything in return. It is about making a difference in the lives of others without seeking recognitionor reward.In conclusion, kindness is a powerful force that can transform lives and communities. Whether it is through small gestures like smiling at a stranger or larger acts such as volunteering, every act of kindness counts. As the saying goes, “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.”Questions:1.According to the passage, what positive feeling do people experience after performing acts of kindness?2.How does the author describe the effect of witnessing kind acts on others?3.What does the passage suggest about the misconception of kindness?4.Can you identify one example provided in the text that illustrates the contagious nature of kindness?5.What is the main message conveyed by the passage?Answers:1.People experience the “helper’s high.”2.Witnessing kind acts can inspire others to perform similar deeds.3.Kindness should not be mistaken for naivety or weakness; it requires strength and courage.4.A viral video showed a man helping an elderly woman cross the street, which inspired others to assist those in need.5.The main message is that kindness is a powerful force capable of transforming lives and communities.以上是一个模拟题,用于演示“英语高考试卷”中的“四、阅读第二节”。

2023年1月浙江高考英语试卷(含答案详解及解题技巧)

2023年1月普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(浙江卷)英语第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

AExplorers Camp●Full day camp for kids aged5-13.●Monday‒Friday,July8‒26,9am‒4pm.Week1|July8‒12Week2|July15‒19Week3|July22‒26●Register for a single week or multiple weeks.●Fees:$365per week.●Thelastday to cancel registration and receive a full refund(退款)is June15.Camp StructureThe day is divided into two thematic sessions per age group.Campers have a three-hour morning class engaging with a morning theme(9am to12noon)and a one-hour lunch break, followed by another three-hour class engaging with an afternoon theme(1pm to4pm).Snack periods are held throughout the day.Allcampersshould bring their own bagged lunch and snacks. Camp ContentExplorers Camp organizes engaging arts,history and science-related activities in every class,and focuses on a range of topics that emphasize active learning,exploration and,most of all,fun!All camp sessions are created with age-appropriate activities that are tailored to the multiple ways that kids learn.Camp StaffCampers enjoy a staff-to-child ratio ranging from1:4to1:7depending on the age group. Instructors are passionate educators who are experts in their fields and have undergone training and a background check.21.On which of the following dates can you cancel your registration with a full refund?A.June12.B.June22.C.July19.D.July26.22.How are campers divided into different groups?A.By gender.B.By nationality.C.By interest.D.By age.23.How many hours of class will you have altogether if you register for a single week?A.15.B.21.C.30.D.42.BLivewithroommates?Have friends and family around you?Chances are that if you're looking to liveamoresustainable lifestyle,not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago,as I was living with my parents,and I continue to experience this with my husband,as he is not completely zero waste like me.I've learned a few things along the way though,which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doingyourbesttofigure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back.I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson,sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash!A few days later,I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries,and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere.It came off as a bit discouraging.Yet as the months of reducing waste continued,I did what I could that was within my own reach.I had my own bedroom,so I worked on removing things I didn't need.Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品),I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable.I also offered to cook every so often,so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries.Perhaps your household won't entirely make the switch,but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make thechanges you desire.Asyou make your lifestyle changes,you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you're doing,which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board,your words probably won't do much and can often leave you feeling morediscouraged.Sohere is my advice:Lead by action.24.Whatdotheunderlined words“jumponthatbandwagon”meaninthefirstparagraph?A.Share an apartment with you.B.Join you in what you're doing.C.Transform your way of living.D.Help you to make the decision.25.What was the attitude of the author's father toward buying groceries with jars?A.He disapproved of it.B.He was favorable to it.C.He was tolerant of it.D.He didn't care about it.26.What can we infer about the author?A.She is quite good at cooking.B.She respects others'privacy.C.She enjoys being a housewife.D.She is a determined person.27.What is the text mainly about?A.How to get on well with other family members.B.How tohave one's own personalspace at home.C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.D.Howtocontrol the budget when buying groceries.CA machine can now not only beat you at chess,it can also outperform you in st week,in a public debate in San Francisco,a software program called Project Debater beat its human opponents,includingNoaOvadia,Israel's former national debating champion.Brilliant though it is,Project Debater has some weaknesses.It takes sentences from its library of documents and prebuilt arguments and strings them together.This can lead to the kinds of errors no human would make.Such wrinkles will no doubt be ironed out,yet they also point to a fundamental problem.As Kristian Hammond,professor of electrical engineering and computer science at Northwestern University,put it:“There's never a stage at which the system knows what it's talking about.”What Hammond is referring to is the question of meaning,and meaning is central to what distinguishes the least intelligent of humans from the most intelligent of machines.A computer works with symbols.Its program specifies a set of rules to transform one string of symbols into another.But it does not specify what those symbols mean.Indeed,to a computer, meaning is irrelevant.Humans,in thinking,talking,reading and writing,also work with symbols.But for humans,meaning is everything.When we communicate,we communicate meaning.What matters is not just the outside of a string of symbols,but the inside too,not just how theyare arrangedbut what theymean.Meaning emerges through a process of social interaction,not of computation,interaction that shapes the content of the symbols in our heads.The rules that assign meaning lie not just inside our heads,but also outside,in society,in social memory,social conventions and social relations.It is this that distinguishes humans from machines.And that's why,however astonishing Project Debater may seem,the tradition that began with Socrates and Confucius will not end with artificial intelligence.28.Why doesthe author mention Noa Ovadia in the first paragraph?A.To explain the use of a software program.B.To show the cleverness of Project Debater.C.To introduce the designerof Project Debater.D.To emphasize the fairness ofthe competition.29.What doestheunderlined word“wrinkles”inparagraph2referto?A.Arguments.B.Doubts.C.Errors.D.Differences.30.Whatis ProjectDebaterunable to do according to Hammond?A.Create rules.prehend meaning.C.Talk fluently.D.Identify difficult words.31.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Social interaction is key to understanding symbols.B.Thehuman brain has potential yet to be developed.C.Ancientphilosophersset good examples for debaters.D.Artificial intelligence ensures humans a bright future.DAccording to the Solar Energy Industry Association,the number of solar panels installed(安装)has grown rapidly in the past decade,and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals.But all of that growth will take up a lot of space,and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy,fewlike large solar panels to be installed near them.Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible,so they haven't given much thought to what they put under them.Often,they'll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds.The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions,see solarfarmsas destroyers of the soil.“Solarprojects needto be good neighbors,”says Jordan Macknick,the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE)project.“They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.”InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to“low-impact”solar development,which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land.One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators(传粉昆虫).Habitat loss,pesticide use,and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades,which has damaged the U.S.agricultural economy.Over28states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use.Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens,businesses,schools,cities—and nowthere are guidelines for solar farms.Over the past few years,many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators,resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction.“These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that's going on in the landscape,”saysMacknick.32.What do solar developers often ignore?A.Thedecline in the demand for solar energy.B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.D.The most recent advances in solar technology.33.What does InSPIRE aim to do?A.Improve the productivity of local farms.B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.34.What is the purpose ofthe laws mentioned in paragraph4?A.To conserve pollinators.B.To restrict solar development.C.To diversify the economy.D.To ensure the supply of energy.35.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Pollinators:To Leave or to StayB.Solar Energy:Hope for the FutureC.InSPIRE:A Leader in AgricultureD.Solar Farms:A New Development第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

A person is identified by their name or full name, and this usually consists of at least two words - the given name, which is also known as the first name, and the surname,which is also known as the family name or last name. The purpose of the surname or family name is to indicate that the person belongs to a specific family or clan. In many cultures , people are identified by a single name.Because of different naming conventions around the world,a person s name,while not unique,can tell a lot of the person s heritage and family history. For example,many societies in the world use patronymic names - at least one part of a person s name comes from the father s family. By following the chain of shared names back, one can find, if records exist,a lot about one s ancestors. Similarly,some cultures follow a matronymic tradition where part of a person s name comes from the mother s side of the family.In the US, there is even a Learn What Your Name Means Day on March 5th every year. Talk to your parents or family members about your name. Ask them why they gave you yourname and what it means. With a little bit of research you may be able to find out about the lives of your ancestors.32. What is a name usually made up of?A. The full name and the given name.B.
