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.

Furthermore, the connection got stronger as trees aged and grew: The reduction in mortality rate connected with trees planted 11 to 15 years before was double that observed with trees planted in the past 1 to 5 years. This means that older trees are connected with larger decreases in mortality, and that protecting existing grown trees may be particularly important for public health. This study doesn’t provide a direct opinion into how trees improv e health. However, the result that larger trees have a greater health effect than smaller ones is telling, because larger trees are better at absorbing air pollution, moderating temperatures, and reducing noise.

“We observed the effect both in green and l ess green neighborhoods, which suggests that street tree planting benefits both,” said Geoffrey H. Donovan, first author of the study. “Be-sides, the benefits of tree planting greatly outweigh (大于) the cost. Our results provide an important evidence-base f or clear measures (e. g. planting trees) to increase the lifetime of urban people.”；

8. How long did it take Friends of Trees to plant 49,246 street trees?

A．5 years. B．10 years. C．15 years. D．30 years.；

9. What do we know about the study from paragraph 3?

A．Women gain no benefit from trees.

B．Tree planting can cure respiratory diseases.

C．Older trees contribute more to public health.

D．Newly planted trees can better improve public health.；

10. What does Donovan suggest doing?

A．Protecting trees in forests. B．Planting more street trees.

C．Joining Friends of Trees. D．Getting more benefits from nature.；

11. How does the author mainly develop the topic of the text?

A．By listing numbers. B．By stating results.

C．By describing processes. D．By raising questions.

Is it time to ditch sugar?

It’s no secret that sugar can cause issues if you’re indulging (放任) in a little too much of the sweet stuff. Still, most Americans are eating too much sugar. The harmful effects it can have on your physical health are well studied. 12 .

Sugar can affect your mood

You probably turn to a doughnut (甜甜圈) or soda for an extra boost during a long day. Yet sugar may not be such a positive pick-me-up after all. Recent research indicates that sugary treats have no positive effect on mood. 13 .

One study published in 2017 found that consuming a diet high in sugar can increase the chances of mood disorders. A more recent 2019 study found that regular consumption of saturated fats (饱和脂肪) and added sugars were related to higher feelings of anxiety in adults over age 60.

14

It’s hard to avoid reaching for comfort foods, especially after a difficult day. But the cycle of consuming sugar to manage your emotions may only make your feelings of sadness, tiredness, or hopelessness worse. Multiple studies have found a link between diets high in sugar and depression.

15 . These can lead to depression and may even increase the long-term risk of developing a mental health disorder in some people.

Sugar destroys your brain power

Emerging research has found that diets high in sugar can damage cognitive functioning, even in the absence of extreme weight gain or too much energy intake. A 2015 study found that consuming high levels of sugar-sweetened drinks made neurocognitive functions like decision making and memory worse. 16 . But a more recent study found that healthy volunteers in their 20s scored worse on memory tests and had poorer appetite control after just 7 days of eating a diet high in saturated fat and added sugars.

Although more studies are needed to solidify the effects on mental health of sugar consumption, it’s important to consider how diet can affect your well-being.

A．Sugar can weaken your ability to deal with stress

B．Granted, the research was done on rats

C．Overconsumption of sugar triggers imbalances in certain brain chemicals

D．Sugar can increase your risk for developing depression

E．In fact, sugar may have the opposite effect over time

F．However, the effect on mental health is worth taking a second look

G．If you’re dying for sweets, here’s what to eat instead

三、语法填空

A Win-Win Experience

I was a shy person and always doubted my ability. Two years ago, I went through a training program and became a volunteer. The job was to help those who cannot read and write. When I began to teach, I discovered what other people’s lives were like because they could not read.

My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn’t know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn’t always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could n ot write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label (标签), she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.

After learning about Marie’s situation, I decided to teach her names of daily necessities first. I would start my lessons by encouraging her to give each item in her kitchen a sticker with its name on it. She would hesitate for a while before sticking the right name during the first periods. I knew learning vocabulary can be difficult, especially for a middle-aged woman, so I came up with the idea of making up stories with the new words she learnt and wrote them down in the notebook.

As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie’s self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue in her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt.

27. Dear Jack,

How are you recently? I’m going to participate in an English speech competition themed My Dream University. With time going by, I’m getting increasingly nervous, so I’m writing to ask for your advice.

Knowing that you have taken part in many competitions, I’d appreciate it if you could give me some practical suggestions. For example, how can I adjust my mindset, improve my contents and hold the attention from audience?

I truly believe that with your help, I’ll have a better performance. Thanks a lot from the b ottom

of my heart. Looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua 28. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, with his reading. She told me she was inspired by my teaching and taught her Tony word recognition via daily life. For instance, she had him learn words from store signs, posters, book dialogue, cartons and so on. What she did all paid off. I could vividly remember Tony read a story to me, which really impressed me a lot.

As she, full of confidence, described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I, secretly, assumed that I played an important role in educating the cute little boy. Moreover, I was positively impressed by Marie’s story and wanted to help more people in badly need of it——reading. I hold the firm belief that if we help others to read, their life will definitely be more colorful. So let’s volunteer to help others to read, in a brilliant way and try to spread good deeds as much as we can!

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高效练 学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________ 一、阅读理解 A My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world. We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits. Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks. The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free. We changed our daily routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging. It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada. Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed?； 1. Why did the author do pet sitting? A．To raise fund. B．To protect the environment. C．To cover travel expenses. D．To shoot beautiful beaches.； 2. What does the author intend to convey through her story? A．Pet sitting is a new type of occupation. B．The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination. C．Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity. D．Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution.； 3. How did the author find her experience in the Caribbean? A．Significant. B．Challenging. C．Adventurous. D．Dreadful.； 4. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A．Changing Lifestyles by Pet Sitting

高三英语晚自习限时高效练 学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________ 一、阅读理解 A My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world. We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits. Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks. The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free. We changed our daily routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging. It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada. Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed?； 1. Why did the author do pet sitting?
