During the COP27 climate conference (会议) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, an important deal on “loss and damage” was reached. This was a big step forward because at COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, there were no talks on loss and damage at all. The plan is that richer countries will pay money into a special fund that will be used to help poor countries.

Loss and damage means the damaging impact of climate change on developing countries. For nearly 30 years, poorer countries have been asking richer countries for

money to help to protect communities from the effects of climate change. Richer countries have produced the most greenhouse gases, but poorer countries are often the worst affected by extreme weather conditions because they are less well equipped to face extreme climate events.

Brazil’s newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made a speech about preserving the largest rainforest on Earth, the Amazon. During the last 50 years, more than 17% of the Amazon rainforest has been destroyed to make way for farms and towns. However, in his speech, Lula promised that there would be zero deforestation (伐树) in the Amazon by 2030. The conference didn’t just focus on world leaders. It brought together more than 45,000 people to discuss how climate change is affecting their lives. Climate refugees (难民) also had their voices heard. Tshilombo from the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya said, “Refugees don’t only flee becaus e of war or conflict. It’s also about drought, the effects of climate change.”

Some countries weren’t happy with the overall outcome of COP27 because decisions weren’t made on cutting the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, gas and oil, etc. The UK Governme nt’s Alok Sharma said, “I’m incredibly disappointed.”

However, this deal was a great achievement for developing countries. Sherry Rehman, the climate minister for Pakistan, said, “I am confident we have tuned a comer in how we work together to achieve clim ate goals.”；

（三）

What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.

Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.

Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.

These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.

8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph me an? A．Relaxed. B．Started. C．Appeared suddenly. D．Stopped. 9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?

A．People became more inventive.

B．People worked fewer hours per day.

C．People worked fewer hours overall.

D．People found employment in leisure industries.

10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that A．he could produce more cars.

B．they could spend money on cars.

C．he didn’t have to pay them to drive.

D．they would enjoy working with him.

11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now? A．Because we start work later than we used to

B．Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.

C．Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time. D．Because people are out control of their working week.

二、七选五阅读

Mondays are kind of annoying. 12 A recent survey says that most people get the pre-work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.

The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women’s health expert Marsha Hudnall. 13

Do some meal preparations.

Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressf ul. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 14 Or finally attempt a di fferent diet you’ve been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you’ll have a week’s worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.

Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.

“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,” says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. 15 Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing－a practice known as shinrin-yoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hik e in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.

16

Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday? Studies show that what you wear can have a significant effect on your mood. So make Monday the day you wear your favorite clothes or show the latest addition to your wardrobe (衣橱). It’s also a good idea to get some nice coffee or music ready, which will give you something to look forward to on your Monday commute.

A．Give yourself something to look forward on Monday.

B．Even Sunday afternoons turn sour as we think of the workweek ahead.

C．Then all you have to do is heat and plate when you come home from work. D．Therefore, starting a Sunday stress-relieving habit can begin a week feeling strong and focused.

E．Try creating a relaxing and winding down Sunday night so that you can recharge and get ready for Monday.

F．Taking on just a few of these simple tips every Sunday will help you launch a productive, less stressful week.

G．Wailing until the last moment to do weekend chores like paying bills or doing laundry can leave you anxious and stressed on Sunday.

I am speaking to you at what I know is an increasingly challenging time. A time of disruption in the life of our country; a disruption that has brought grief to some, financial difficulties to many, and enormous changes to the daily lives of us all.

I want to thank everyone on the NHS front liens, 32 care workers and those carrying out essential rules, who selflessly continue 33 day-to-day duties outside the home in support of as all.

I am sure the nation will join me in assuring you that what you do 34 (appreciate) and every hour of your hard work brings us 35 (close) to a return to more normal times.

I also want to thank these of you who are staying at home, thereby helping to protect the vulnerable and sparting many family the pain already 36 (feel) by those who have lost loved ones.

Together we are tackling this disease, and I want to reassure you that if we remain united and resolute, we will overcome it.

I hope in the years to come everyone will be able to take pride in 37 they responded to this challenge. And those who come after us will say the Britons of this generation were as strong as any.

The moments when the United Kingdom has come together to applaud its care and essential workers will be remembered 38 an expression of our national spirit; and its symbol will be the rainbows drawn by children.

Across the Commonwealth and around the world, we have seen heart-warming stories of people 39 (come) together to help others, be it through delivering food parcels and medicines, checking on neighbours, or converting businesses to help with the relief effort.

And though self-isolating at times 40 be hard, many people of all faiths, and of none, are discovering that it presents an opportunity to slow down, pause and reflect, in prayer or meditation.

But now, as then, we know, deep down, that it is the right thing to do.

We will succeed - and that success will belong to every one of us.

We should take comfort that while we may have more still 41 (endure), better days will return: we will be with our friends again: we will be with our families again: we will meet again.

But for now, I send my thanks and warmest good wishes to you all.

42. Cultural Relics Protection

As we all know, cultural relics can help us know a period of history, and contribute to cultural research. Besides, cultural relics are precious wealth left by our ancestors, which play an important role in official history. In addition, they can deepen the love for our motherland. So it's very important for us to protect cultural relics. First, we should make relevant laws and increase the punishment of illegal acts. Second, we should raise awareness of the protection of cultural relics and actively fight with crimes against cultural relics. As students, we should be civilized tourists and not destroy cultural relics.

高三英语晚自习限时训练 一、阅读理解 A Icehouse and ice ticket As early as Pre-Qin Dynasty, people used natural ice to keep food fresh and make cold drinks. The Zhou royal court had a specialized department called “ice administration”. They collected natural ice blocks each December to store in the icehouse. During th e Qing Dynasty, “ice tickets” were used and they were available only to officials and the rich. Ice container The most commonly used cooling tool is called “Jian”, which is a big container filled with ice. It was made of clay in early Chinese history, and was later made of copper (铜). The “Jian” can be seen as an ancient refrigerator, which can be used to make cold drinks. Hiding food in the well During the Qin and Han dynasties, for common people, the most common way to cool off is by using their wells. Some families put a pot in the well as a cold closet, or put food in a basket and lowered the basket into the well with a rope. Herbal drinks During the Qing Dynasty, taking Chinese herbal medicine was popular in Beijing. In hot summer, some people preferred to drink ice water, some boiled perilla leaves, and liquorice as summer soup to keep off the heat. Ancient people also loved to make lotus seed soup in summer for the benefit of strengthening the body. 1. What does “Jian” have the same function as? A．Container. B．Refrigerator. C．Clay. D．Copper. 2. Which of the following is unavailable to common people? A．Ice tickets. B．Ice container. C．Hiding food in the well. D．Herbal drinks. 3. What’s the common purpose of the above four ways?

B Walk into any waiting area and you will see people of all ages on the phone. It is rare to see people sitting and simply thinking while waiting for the next part of the day or night. We have also observed people playing with their mobile phones while having dinner with others or in the presence of their families. It seems that everyone is experiencing FOMO (fear of missing out) or a strong addiction to electronic devices. Why do adults, middle school students, and even young children turn to electronics while waiting? A recent study by Hatano et al. (2022) found that in different cultures people underestimate how enjoyable and attractive simply thinking might be. In a series of studies on university students in both Japan and the United Kingdom, the participants rated their level of expected enjoyment and engagement in simply thinking and then rated their actual level of enjoyment and participation in thinking after the waiting period. During the waiting period, the participants only had the option to think. They were not allowed to take electronics into the waiting area. The participants were not necessarily happy about thinking. Instead, they underestimated the benefits related to thinking and thought that thinking was aversive before the waiting period, which only allowed thinking without electronic products. After this waiting period, they admitted that thinking was more interesting and easier than expected. Thinking can include problem-solving, goal-setting, and a variety of other creative tasks. These outcomes can be extremely productive and satisfying. Perhaps it is time for parents and educators to teach chil dren about the importance of paying attention to one’s thoughts. We need to be better role models and put down our own phones when there is an opportunity to simply wait and think. We need to provide these opportunities for both ourselves and our children.； 4. What’s the purpose of the author describing the scene about people’s using electronics? A．To introduce the importance of electronics. B．To tell what bad influences electronics have. C．To voice his views on thinking while waiting. D．To explain why we should have better ways of communication.； 5. What does the underlined word “aversive” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Satisfactory. B．Boring. C．Worried. D．Meaningful.； 6. What should parents and educators do according to the text? A．Provide opportunities for children. B．Pick up the phones while waiting. C．Underestimate the benefits of thinking. D．Tell children about the significance of thinking.； 7. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A．Why should we put our phones down? B．How can electronic products affect us? C．How do we think freely by using phones? D．Why does thinking while waiting make people smart? C In the past 30 years, the non-profit organization Friends of Trees planted trees along the streets of Portland, Oregon. Now, a new study shows that each tree planted was connected with significant reductions in non-accidental and cardiovascular (心血管的) mortality (死亡率). Evidence pointing to a connection between exposure to nature and lower mortality is obvious. Between 1990 and 2019, Friends of Trees planted 49,246 street trees. The research team looked at the number of trees planted in a given area in the past 5, 10 or 15 years. They connected this information with mortality due to cardiovascular, respiratory (呼吸的) or non-accidental causes in that same area, using data from the Oregon Health Authority. The results showed that in neighborhoods in which more trees had been planted, mortality rates were lower. This connection was significant for cardiovascular and non-accidental mortality, particularly for males and people over the age of 65.

Ida smashed into Louisiana as a Category 4 hurricane, ripping off roofs, knocking out transmission lines, flooding roads, and reducing some brick buildings in downtown New Orleans to rubble. At least eight people died in the storm and the toll is expected to rise as emergency workers search wrecked homes and businesses. One of the most powerful hurricanes to ever hit the U.S. mainland, Ida brought a 5 to 12-foot storm surge that covered low-lying communities in southeastern Louisiana. Grand Isle is now “uninhabitable,” said Parish President Cynthia Lee Sheng, with 3 feet of sand covering the entire barrier island and 40 percent of the buildings completely destroyed. The storm caused a citywide blackout in New Orleans, but a Hurricane Katrina-level disaster was avoided there, thanks in part to the $ 14.5 billion spent on new levees, seawalls, and pumps after the 2005 storm. Experts are warning that Ida could worsen the Covid crisis in the Gulf Coast, as residents crowd together in homes and emergency shelters without immediate access to testing or medical care. ICUs in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama hospitals were already near capacity be- fore the storm hit. Nearly 1 million people are still without power across Louisiana, and authorities waned it could be weeks before electricity is restored. “If you have already evacuated,” said Gov. John Bel Edwands, “do not return here.”； 10. Which of the following best describes Hurricane Ida? A．Mild. B．Destructive. C．Uncontrollable. D．Impressive.； 11. What does the underlined words “the toll” mean in Paragraph 1? A．The death number. B．The heat wave.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练 【3月30日晚，限时：不超过65-70分钟】 一、阅读理解 （一） Located in the tropical forests in Xishuangbanna, southwest China’s Yunnan province, the Asian Elephant Breeding and Rescue Center (AEBRC) is dedicated to giving careful and effective protection to wild elephants. Though the jungles provide rich sources of food and water for the elephants, they can also pose a threat to them if they become ill or injured, making it difficult for them to survive in the wild. In August 2015, a baby elephant that was less than one month old was abandoned by her herd at the d oorway of a farmer’s house in Simiao, Pu’er city. Vets from the AEBRC came and took the animal to their center for treatment. She was found to have intra-abdominal infections and heart failure. She was also at risk of blood poisoning. The baby elephant finally recovered after proper treatment by the keepers at the center. However, without the presence of her mother, she became malnourished (营养不良) due to a lack of breast milk. At that time, she weighed only 76 kilograms, much smaller than an average newborn elephant. The vets decided to feed her goat milk, and as she was born in the Chinese Year of the Goat, the elephant was named Yang Niu (“Yang” is Chinese for goat, and Niu means girl). The elephant is now about 6 years old, 1.8 meters tall and weighs 1.3 tonnes. Currently, there are 11 rescued Asian elephants living at the center and being cared for by 27 keepers, who spend more than 10 hours with them each day. Thanks to these efforts, the population of Asian wild elephants in the province has reached 300 from 150 over the past 30 years.

高三英语晚自习限时训练 【3月31日晚限制：不超过65-70分钟】 【六选四阅读＋语法填空+选词填空+阅读理解+小作文+读后续写】 姓名：__________ 班级：___________ 一、六选四阅读 1．Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A. The animals, to some extent, become tools to us. B. Although violence against zoo animals is often reported, the issue of animal welfare has aroused little attention recently. C. By taking a selfie, you show that you're part of that experience. D. The comparison between caged animals and wild ones are appealing to people. E. Similar incidents are a regular occurrence in natural settings. F. The common factor is that some people are not respecting animal. of a Jaguar (美洲虎) enclosure at Wildlife World Zoo, Arizona. The jaguar ripped into her arm. Bystanders pulled her away before the animal could injure her further. She's fine-so is the jaguar. This isn't the first time a story of a person acting rudely to get close to a wild animal made headlines. Last year, a man jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo for a close-up photo. Multiple tourists in Yellowstone National Park have been attacked by bison (野牛) when they've gotten too close for a photo. It's common sense not to get close to wild animals that can hurt you. It's why zoos have barriers -sometimes multiple walls-to keep people separated from animals. Signs posted everywhere state the obvious warning. Keep your hands off the cage. "Yet animals have become less real to us," says an environmentalist. We see exotic animals most frequently in managed settings like zoos. People are trying to take advantage of their rarity to show off on social media and ignore their fierceness. Media often normalize interaction with dangerous animals. Seeing a man like "Lion Whisperer" Kevin Richardson regularly play-fight with lions on TV, may send the message that these animals aren't so dangerous after all. Social media are also perfectly positioned to contribute to the rise of animal selfies.
