for energy loss by runner Bryan Crnkovic and anotheryet unknown man just a few hundred yards from the finish line.The pair caught her before she fell and with the help of Joseph McGinty,carried her to the finish line.“Its just what we do,said McGinty.“You just see someone who needs help and you just want to help.We were just under that two hour mark,and most people came here for that,and 1 thought she probably trained hard so why shouldnt she hit it,you know?Crnkovic and the other man were the first to find the woman.They put her arms over their shoulders and helped her down towards the finish line,but it became clear that she was too tired to continue.That was when McGinty doubled back to help finish the job.He lifted the woman up and carried her to the finish line so that she could cross it on her own two feet.The pair then handed her over to doctors,who took her away in a wheelchair.The scene,caught by Fox 29,went viral as the pairs warm-hearted actions won over the crowds.“I got a call from my cousin Bill,saying Youre on Facebook,youre on the news,said Crnkovic.He wasnt the only one looking-the scene earned much praise online,with one user,Mari Cross Johnson saying,“Their parents have to be proud for raising men like this.Theyre the types of people I want to have my back.11.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A.The importance of helping others.B.How the three men helped the woman.C.Why the three men helped the woman to the finish line.D.The high expectation the three men had for the marathon.12.Why did the woman nearly fall over?A.Because she lost her way.B.Because she was too tired to run.C.Because she was caught by an unknown man.D.Because she was found by runner Bryan Crnkovic and another unknown man.单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明

really well-educated.D.The three men set others a good example.B There are so many rabbits across Australia that it may be surprising to learn that they are a non-native species.A few rabbits arrived with British settlers in 1788,but it was not until 1859,when a British-born farmer named Thomas Austin brought 24 European rabbits to his land for hunting,that they began to live there.They are an excellent example of an invasive species,a non-native species that does harm to its new environment.Rabbits have lived well in many different environments within Australia,such as grasslands,coastal areas,farmland,and even in towns or cities.Their activities have destroyed crops and plants.They compete directly with other wildlife for food and shelter，including taking over burrows(地洞)of other animals.They have led to dangerously reduced populations of many plant and animal species.Efforts to control the rabbit population have had mixed success.The first main effort was the Rabbit-Proof Fence.In 1901,the government started building a knee in the state of Western Australia to protect farmland from rabbits.By the time it was finished in 1907,the Rabbit-Proof Fence ran some 2,000 miles from north to south.The Acting Chief Inspector of Rabbits,Alexander Crawford,headed a team whose job was to go around keeping the fence in working order.But over time,the fence proved to be no match for the rabbits.Other main efforts have included programs to destroy rabbit burrows or use viruses that sicken and kill rabbits.Again,these efforts have been less than successful.The big problem to any efforts to control the rabbit population is simply that their population grows so quickly.One female can have 30 young in a year.If Thomas Austin had known the damage that the rabbits would cause across the country,he might have had second thoughts about bringing rabbits to Australia.14.Why did rabbits begin to live in Australia?A.They travelled there by chance.B.They were brought in by Thomas Austin.C.They were introduced by the government.D.They moved there to escape bad environment.15.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.Some activities of rabbits.B.Rabbits ability to live in the wild.C.How fast the population of rabbits grows.D.The damage rabbits have caused to Australia.16.How successful was the Rabbit-Proof Fence?A.It failed in the beginning.B.It didnt live up to expectations.C.It was unfinished for lack of money.D.It failed later for nobody protected it.17.What would be the best title for the text?A.Rabbits and farming B.Efforts to control rabbits C.Rabbits:experts in burrowing D.Rabbits:unwelcomed newcomers C Imagine you are on a beautiful tropical beach.The blue water shines in the sun,and the sand is warm under your feet.You notice a small fruit in the sand.It looks like a little green apple.You pick it up and smell it it smells sweet.But whatever you do.Dont take a bite!This is the fruit of the manchineel tree.It is the most poisonous tree in America.You can find it in Florida,as well as in the Caribbean,Mexico,and Central America.If you were to eat the fruit,it would taste delicious.But then your mouth would start to burn.Your throat would tighten and make it difficult to breathe.You could even die.The fruit isnt the only risky part of the manchineel tree.The tree is full of milky white sap.Sap is a liquid that flows through a plant,like blood flows through a person.The manchineels sap is hazardous.If it gets on your skin,it will cause painful blisters.So dont try to cut down these trees,because you could get sap all over you!And if you try to burn manchineel wood,the smoke will choke and blind you.Manchineel trees are dangerous,but theyre also an important part of the environments where they grow.Manchineels protect beaches with their strong roots.The roots help stop sand and soil from washing away.This is good for 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 the plants,animals,and people living nearby.There arent many manchineel trees left in the world.So even though theyre harmful,people are trying to protect them.Still,if you see one,stay away!18.What do we know about the manchineel tree?A.It looks ugly.B.Its fruit is dangerous.C.Its fruit tastes terrible.D.It grows in cool places.19.What does the underlined word“hazardous in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Clear.B.Smelly.C.Sweet.D.Unsafe.20.What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A.To help people choose fruit.B.To introduce the manchineel tree.C.To improve peoples sense of safety.D.To attract people to tropical beaches.第二节一共 5 题；每一小题 2 分，满分是 10 分 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能入空白处的最正确选项。选项里面有两项为多余选项。Faces of Stone Easter Island is just a dot in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Chile.21 And it is volcanic,which is probably why it has no trees.Each of the islands three corners has an extinct volcano.Easter Island was relatively unknown until 1722,when Dutch Admiral Roggeveen arrived with the first Europeans ever to set foot on the island.To their great surprise,they were greeted by hundreds of extremely large stone statues lining the shores.22 All were“figures of men with short square bodies and strangely oversized heads,many balancing red stone hats on their heads.They were very similar to one another.23 Each face was taller than a human being,and many were as tall as a four-story building.For an early society to have made these huge figures with only stone tools was an amazing achievement in itself.24 The discovery of a large stone quarry(采石场)unlocked the secrets.It was obvious that this was the site where the statues had been carved before being moved to their final resting places.Some statues appeared to be complete,while others had barely been started.When work on these statues suddenly stopped,some were in the process of being moved.It was obvious that the statue builders had cut down the islands trees to make rolling logs and wooden scaffolds(支架).25 A.The history of Easter Island is rich.B.It is a relatively small island with a total area of only 63 square miles.C.For centuries,scientists have tried to measure the weight of the statues.D.Each had a large nose and long ears,but they were not exactly the same.E.To the Europeans,the unusually large legless creatures appeared strange indeed.F.Then they used these tools to carry the huge statues from the quarry to the islands coast.G.What was even more mysterious was how the people moved the creations,some of which weighed many tons.III.语言知识运用一共两节，满分是 35 分 第一节一共 20 题；每一小题 1 分，满分是 20 分
