ordinary man,I have a special habit to confess.Whenever I walk down the street,I offer to pour a bottle of 学科网（北京）股份有限公司water from the nearby river into the dirt of a street tree.Its just my personal habit,and I think it doesnt make a difference,but Id like to do it.I mention this in light of a campaign launched by the Arboricultural Association to call on the public to water new street trees.The UK government has committed to planting millions of trees to help meet climate targets and aims to increase tree cover from 14.5%to 16.5%by 2050.However,as John Parker,chief executive of the Arboricultural Association,says,“Planting a tree is just the start of the story.The health and survival of new urban trees is threatened by increasingly dry weather.It is recommended that the newly planted trees be given about 50 litres of water per week for the first three years.”While in rural settings,the newly planted trees and woods can take care of themselves and adapt,the challenging conditions mean trees in the urban areas need a bit more care.Long ago,I assumed that the good of street trees was to soften the hard edges of urban environments.But,what an underestimation of tree power that was!A study from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities illustrates they can provide inspiration or a calming atmosphere in an otherwise crowded city.Trees are responsible for easing urban heat island effects and air and pollutant filtration.And I think they provide the habitat for wildlife,especially birds.Trees cant run away.Unfortunately for them and fortunately for urban residents,city trees are stuck with us.If we want to continue enjoying all the good they do,we should try to understand their needs and do all that we can to support them.A bottle of water wont do much,but next time you all together have a bucket of water to pour,you know what big effect will happen.24.What does the author think of his personal habit?A.It is of little effect.B.It is enforced.C.It is of much significance.D.It is common.25.What does John Parker say about urban trees?A.They have started to be watered regularly.B.More work needs to be done for their living.C.They are threatened by the increasing flood.D.The newly planted ones cant look after themselves.26.What can we learn about street trees from paragraph 3?A.Their usage is overrated.B.Their value is thought highly of by the public.C.They benefit residents physically and mentally.D.They can thoroughly solve environmental problems.27.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A.When in need,ask for it.B.Tall trees catch much wind.C.Many hands make light work.D.Misfortunes seldom come alone.CUNESCO has added Italian opera singing,along with more than 50 other practices from around the world,to its list of Intangible(无形的)Cultural Heritage.The agency created the list in 2008 to help safeguard traditions,festivals,rites of passage,art forms and other practices across the globe.It also recognizes culturally and historically significant buildings,structures and properties with its well-known list of World Heritage Sites.It originates from the 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage,which is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2023.With UNESCOs decision,opera singing joins several other Italian traditions on the list,like pizza making.学科网（北京）股份有限公司“Performed by people of all genders,Italian opera singing is associated with specific facial expressions and body gestures and involves a combination of music,drama,acting and staging,”writes UNESCO.The practice dates back to the Medici family in Florence in the late 16th and early 17th centuries.Jacopo Peris Dafne,which was performed for the Medicis in 1598,is considered the first Italian opera.“This is a confirmation of what weve already known:Opera singing is a world excellence,”says Gennaro Sangiuliano,Italys culture minister,in a statement.A wide variety of cultural practices,food dishes and festivals also made the list at UNESCOs Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage meeting in Botswana.The committee narrowed down nominations submitted by 72nations,ultimately selecting 55 to add to the list.The full list now includes 730 practices from 145 countries.Six of the new additions are“in need of urgent safeguarding”,according to UNESCO.These include Syrian glassblowing,olive cultivation in Trkiye and a traditional Malaysian performance called Mek Mulung.The non-urgent additions include several annual events,such as the Rotterdam Summer Carnival in the Netherlands,the Sango Festival of Oyo in Nigeria,the Junkanoo in the Bahamas and the Shuwalid festival in Ethiopia.28.Why was Italian opera singing added to the UNESCOs list?A.To prove its perfection.To preserve this art form.C.To strengthen its competitiveness.D.To celebrate this arts 20th anniversary.29.What does UNESCO mention about Italian opera singing in paragraph 2?A.Its features.B.Its prospects.C.Its origin.D.Its cost.30.What can we infer about Italian opera singing from Gennaro Sangiulianos words?A.It has a long history.B.It awaits confirmation.C.It has received high recognition.D.It comes from a well-known performance.31.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.The Art Forms in ItalyB.The Introduction to UNESCOC.730 Practices Are Ready to Be Added to the UNESCOs ListD.The UNESCOs List Welcomes Italian Opera Singing&.Other PracticesDThe Great Wall in China is an iconic cultural landmark that has stood for a long time.But the long structure is also at risk of disappearing because of natural erosion.Now,scientists have discovered that some parts of the wall are better conserved from the elements than others.Some plants have created a layer of biocrusts(生物外壳)on some sections of the wall,according to a study published in a journal.In addition to strengthening the wall,the biocrusts shield it from wind and water.The researchers report the“living cover”also insulates the wall from temperature changes.The Great Wall was constructed and connected over thousands of years ago to help create a“united defense system”for Chinas northern border.Some sections were built using rammed earth(夯土),a process that involves compacting natural materials like stones and soil to create firm structures.Those materials also provided an ideal habitat for organisms to growand over time,they created a biocrust layer atop the rammed earth.学科网（北京）股份有限公司Scientists in China wanted to better understand the walls biocrusts,so they took samples from a roughly 300-mile-long section.When they analyzed the samples,they found that 67%of the area they studied was covered in biocrusts.They also conducted a series of experiments to compare the bare and biocrust-covered samples.The biocrust-covered sections held up better in tests measuring their strength and stability.Some biocrust samples were three times stronger than the bare rammed earth samples.The new research could help info rm conservation strategies for the Great Wall and other heritage structures created from rammed earth.Some conservationists have supposed that biocrusts may cause historic structures to worsen more quickly,but this study suggests otherwise.Instead,biocrusts helpfully combine the functions of several conventional measures into one nature-based,eco-friendly and long-lasting strategy.32.What does the underlined word“insulates”in paragraph 1 mean?A.Protects.B.Takes.C.Removes.D.Creates.33.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.How the Great Wall was built.B.What rammed earth once was like.C.What role the Great Wall played in history.D.How biocrusts were formed on the Great Wall.34.What can the findings be used to do?A.Conserve plant samples.B.Stop the formation of biocrusts.C.Help keep rammed earth heritage structures.D.Replace conventional building protection measures.35.How is the text mainly organized?A.By analyzing the methods of wall restoration.B.By comparing different sections of the Great Wall.C.By tracking the historical significance of the Great Wall.D.By explaining a new scientific discovery and its impacts.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts.We exercise and take calcium to
