（2023秋·山东威海·高二统考期末）How to Survive a Human Stampede (踩踏)
In 2010, a tragic human stampede occurred during a festival in Phnom Penh. When thousands attempted to cross a bridge, it began to sway (摇摆), panic set in, and a rush to get off the bridge began. 347 people died in the rush.
What happened in Phnom Penh is an extreme example. ____1____. Getting caught in a stampede can be deadly if you don’t know what to do. With a little preparation and some strategies, you can avoid being one of the people who doesn’t make it out.
☆____2____
The best way to survive a human stampede is to evaluate your surroundings long before the stampede begins. For example, if you’re attending a large event, make sure you know where all the available exits are. In addition to identifying exit doors, be aware of alternative exits, like accessible windows.
☆Keep moving
Resisting the force of the crowd will only tire you out and conserving energy is critical to surviving a stampede. ____3____. Moving diagonally (斜形) with the flow of the crowd will bring you to the edge of the stampede where it’s less likely that you’ll end up stuck at a choke point.
☆Avoid choke points
Choke points are any space that restricts the flow of the stampede. Doorways, hallways, and bridges are all examples. While those narrow spaces lead to exits, they also represent the most dangerous places in a stampede. ____4____.
☆Look for non-obvious exits
Humans are creatures of habit. In most cases, people will rush for the same doorway or gate that they used to enter the venue. Thus, looking for non-obvious exits when you arrive somewhere is really important. ____5____. If you’re at an outdoor event, don’t hesitate to go over temporary barriers if it means you can escape the main flow of the stampede.
A．Be prepared
B．Identify exit doors
C．Remember to keep moving right after the crowd
D．However, human stampedes are by no means uncommon
E．If at all possible, avoid getting trapped near a choke point
F．But this doesn’t mean you should go in the exact direction of the crowd
G．Windows and fire exits are good things to look for when you’re inside a building

（2023秋·黑龙江哈尔滨·高二哈师大附中校考期末）Most of us learn how to ride a bike during childhood. But as we grow older, many of us stop riding and put those once-beloved bikes in storage. Years later, when we discover these relics and hop on, it’s as if we had never stopped biking.
____6____ For example, we often cannot remember the name of a place or a person we once knew or where we put our keys. So how is it that we can still successfully ride a bicycle when we haven’t done so in years?
As it turns out, ____7____ Long-term memory is divided into two types: declarative and procedural.
There are two types of declarative memory. Recollections of experiences such as the day we started school and our first kiss are called episodic memory. ____8____ Factual knowledge, on the other hand, such as the capital of France, is part of semantic (语义) memory. These two types of declarative memory content have one thing in common — you are aware of the knowledge and can communicate these memories to others.
Skills such as playing an instrument or riding a bicycle are, however, placed in a separate system. These types of memories are called procedural memories. ____9____
Is procedural knowledge then fundamentally more stable than declarative knowledge? The answer is that the former is indeed more resistant to both loss and injury.
Even in the case of brain injury the procedural memory system is hardly ever damaged. That’s because the structures responsible for processing non-declarative memory are relatively protected in the brain’s center. However, it’s not clear, beyond brain damage, why procedural memory contents are not as easily forgotten as declarative ones are. According to one idea, in the regions where movement patterns are based, ____10____ Without this continuous remodeling in those regions, it’s less likely for those memories to get erased.
One thing we know for sure, however, is that the simple sequences of movement that we have internalized at one time or another, even if long ago, are typically preserved fora lifetime. Or as the saying goes, it’s “just like riding a bicycle.”
A．fewer new nerve cells may be formed in adults.
B．In a way, this part of your brain stores it as a memory.
C．They are responsible for our performance of certain actions.
D．This type of recall is our interpretation of an event that occurred.
E．We tend to forget some sports we learn.as we don’t practice them.
F．different types of memories are stored in distinct regions of our brains.
G．This is surprising because our memories let us down in so many other cases.

（2023秋·山东潍坊·高二统考期末）Fake (假的) news is all around us and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the amount of information out there. Here are some tips for avoiding misinformation.
____11____ In the 18th century, for example, fake news was spread about King George Ⅱ being ill in order to damage his public image. Today, fake news remains a problem. Over 80 percent of people in the UK regularly come across fake news online.
So what can you do to avoid being caught out by misinformation?
The first step to responding to any potential fake news is easy: Google it. When Googling a claim, look for supporting evidence from credible news websites.

____13____ If the article comes from a reputable news source, it’s likely that it was written by a professional journalist who practiced due diligence when sourcing their information. If the article is not from an official news website, where is it from? Check if it has been written by a credible expert on the topic, or if it has been written for a trusted organization.
After, all your sleuthing (侦查), you come to the conclusion that you have found some fake news. ____14____ If it is a post or message from someone you know, you can reach out to them and let them know it’s not entirely accurate. It’s better to do this by politely messaging them privately rather than leaving a public comment if it’s a post on social media.
Studies suggest that fake news spreads faster than real news. ____15____
A．Don’t share it.
B．Fake news is not new.
C．Delete it immediately.
D．Make sure to check who wrote the news piece.

（2023秋·江苏苏州·高二统考期末）How we garden

For instance, you might want to create a tropical (热带) feel but if you’ve got next-door’s oak tree (橡树) as the major background then it could look slightly odd. ____47____ If your garden is north-facing and you use black or grey-colored material, everything could become dark and depressing.

Think about keeping your home clean the minute you walk in.____52____ A University of Arizona study found that the average shoe harbors nearly 421,000 different bacteria and cleaning chemicals can also get tracked into your home via your shoes. Leave a pair of slippers by the front door. It also makes sense to use some alcohol to freshen your sheets and smelly gym clothes.
Even if you think you’ve disinfected everything, you might have overlooked some small items like the toothbrush holder .____53____Another thing you should pay attention to is the kitchen sponges (海绵).As they may carry large quantities of bacteria, they’ve been banned from restaurant kitchens.
____54____The gold standard is a high-efficiency air filter. The Department of Energy requires that they remove 99.97 percent of pollutants and particles in the air.

Indoor air can have two to five times more pollutants than outdoor air.
Many viruses don’t spread as well in wet air as they do in the cold, dry months.____55____However, cool-mist humidifiers (增湿器) can harbor bacteria if they aren’t cleaned regularly.

Some of us like to keep some things private-maybe we don’t want people to know about our relationship status, our age or where we live — because these details are personal.____56____
On our social medial accounts, we often display things like our opinions, connections and holiday photos.____57____? Maybe we don’t want a random stranger to know our favorite type of coffee.

Many social media platforms allow everything to be visible by default, and the responsibility is on you to set your boundaries. And limiting the amount you share isn’t only confined to social media.

What’s more, you can travel by train across Canada and along the coasts, which is one of the most cost-friendly ways to see the country.

（2023秋·广东惠州·高二统考期末）Were the walls of your teenage bedroom decorated with countless posters? When it comes to home decoration, one of the first opportunities we get to express ourselves is by choosing which posters to stick on our teenage bedroom walls. ____71____
The simplest argument is that it allows children and teens to match their bedroom to their personality. Youth is a time when we are eager for independence and a voice. ____72____ The bedroom is a sacred space away from the pressures of school, annoying siblings (兄弟姐妹) and parents. We all want the spaces we spend time to be comfortable and personalized.
____73____ Buying magazines with posters of your favourite celebrities is a more affordable and less time-consuming alternative to decorating a bedroom and, once a trend passes, posters can easily be taken down.
Posters also allow you to welcome multiple aspects of your personality. ____74____ But with posters you can choose to place a sports legend next to a Hollywood actor or a cute puppy next to a pop-star. They can be switched around so the flavour of the month gets pride of place (next to the bed, obviously) and changing one or all of them can change the style of the room.
Research showed just 7 per cent of teens have poster on their walls compared to 78 per cent in the 1990s. It’s sad to think young people are missing something. ____75____ But times have moved on. And who knows, if the love of all things retro continues influenced by Strange Things, perhaps the poster will regain its popularity?
A．And posters allow that freedom.
B．Paints and wallpapers can be limiting.
C．Posters are a unique art form for teenagers.
D．Here are what we can express through posters.
E．So why was the ordinary poster so popular?
F．They once played such a big part of youth culture.
G．Another advantage of posters as a first choice is their being altered easily.


参考答案：
1．D    2．A    3．F    4．E    5．G
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助人们在遭遇踩踏事故时幸存下来。
1．空前“What happened in Phnom Penh is an extreme example.(在金边发生的事情就是一个极端的例子。)和空后“Getting caught in a stampede can be deadly if you don’t know what to do.(如果你不知道该怎么做，被困在踩踏中可能是致命的。)”讲述的是虽然金边的惨剧是一个极端的例子，但是困在踩踏事故中是很危险的。选项D“However, human stampedes are by no means uncommon(然而，踩踏事件并不罕见)”承上启下，符合上下文内容。故选D。
2．空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文“The best way to survive a human stampede is to evaluate your surroundings long before the stampede begins. For example, if you’re attending a large event, make sure you know where all the available exits are. In addition to identifying exit doors, be aware of alternative exits, like accessible windows.(在人潮中生存的最好方法是在人潮开始之前评估你周围的环境。例如，如果你要参加一个大型活动，确保你知道所有可用的出口在哪里。除了确定出口门之外，还要注意其他出口，比如可接近的窗户。)”可知，在本段中，作者认为当我们参加一个大型活动时，必须在人潮来临之前做好对周围环境的评估。也就是要提前做好准备。选项A“Be prepared(做好准备)”与下文内容一致。故选A。
3．根据空后内容“Moving diagonally (斜形) with the flow of the crowd will bring you to the edge of the stampede where it’s less likely that you’ll end up stuck at a choke point.(随着人群的流动斜形移动会把你带到踩踏的边缘，在那里你不太可能被困在一个咽喉点。)”可知，作者在本段中建议我们不要随着人流的方向流动，反而应该斜行移动到人流的边缘。选项F“But this doesn’t mean you should go in the exact direction of the crowd(但这并不意味着你应该和人群的方向完全一致)”与下文内容一致。故选F。

57．根据上文“On our social medial accounts, we often display things like our opinions, connections and holiday photos.(在我们的社交媒体账户上，我们经常展示自己的观点、人际关系和度假照片)”以及后文“Maybe we don’t want a random stranger to know our favorite type of coffee.(也许我们不想让一个陌生人知道我们最喜欢的咖啡类型)”可知，上文提到我们喜欢在社交媒体分享一些东西，后文提到我们不想让一个陌生人知道我们最喜欢的咖啡类型，可见存在的问题是不想让不认识的人了解我们发布在网上的信息。故D选项“问题是，我们如何阻止每个人看到所有的东西”符合语境，故选D。
58．根据后文“First, on your social media accounts, check your privacy settings.Many social media platforms allow everything to be visible by default, and the responsibility is on you to set your boundaries. And limiting the amount you share isn’t only confined to social media. There are many sites out there that help you to share documents — so a good tip may be to not put anything too private, like passwords, on there. One errant click may send it to the wrong person.(首先，在你的社交媒体账户上，检查你的隐私设置。许多社交媒体平台默认允许所有内容都是可见的，你有责任设定你的界限。限制分享的数量并不仅限于社交媒体。有很多网站可以帮助你分享文件，所以一个好的建议是不要在上面放任何太私人的东西，比如密码。一个错误的点击可能会把它发送给错误的人)”可知，后文提到了一些保护隐私的步骤。本句总起下文，提出有可以采取的步骤。故选B项“你可以采取一些步骤”符合语境，故选B。
59．根据上文“Finally, cookies are designed to improve your browsing experience by tracking and saving information about your visits to a site, helping to personalize your sessions. Deleting your browsing history may help(最后，cookie旨在通过跟踪和保存您访问网站的信息来改善您的浏览体验，帮助个性化您的会话。删除你的浏览记录可能会有所帮助)”可知，上文提到了cookie的作用，且前半句提到了删除浏览记录，可知本句是在说明不想让cookie跟踪和保存网址信息的情况。故E选项“但如果你觉得不舒服，有些应用程序可以阻止它们”符合语境，故选E。
60．根据上文“So if you want to maintain your privacy online, maybe only share things you’d be happy with a stranger seeing — and if you don’t feel comfortable with cookies, you might decide to invest in some tech to block them(因此，如果你想在网上保护自己的隐私，可能只分享你愿意让陌生人看到的东西——如果你对cookie感到不舒服，你可能会决定投资一些技术来屏蔽它们)”以及后文“just don’t accept them and visit another site — and why not have a yummy cookie to eat instead?(不要接受他们，访问其他地点——为什么不吃一块美味的饼干呢？)”可知，本句属于过渡句，指出上文的做法如果无效的话，可以采取访问其它地点的做法。故A选项“如果这还不够的话”符合语境，故选A。
