Theyre members of the Fayette County Livestock (FCL) Club, which showcases skills as varied as cutting wool. The barn is where they look after the animals. “A lot of Lexington kids dont know anything about farm life，” said Adria Meier, 17, who has looked after goats and sheep for three years.“There is so much to learn.”The dozen or so children who take care of their goats and sheep at the little red barn must do a sixhour class before they get an animal. They pay for their own animals but get special club programs, such as one that provides vet(兽医) care.Mahan lets the group use the barn for free, and the kids spend up to three hours a day there during the summer.But as his land gets sold, he doesnt know whether the club can continue. What makes the FCL Club special is that most of the kids cant just walk out their doors and take care of their animals. Most are driven to the barn by their mothers, who usually hang around and chat as their kids feed and exercise the animals. There are valuable lessons learned along the way. For instance, dont cut wool off your goat when there is wind, and sheep are social animals and will cry loudly when separated. “Tending to animals helps teach us responsibility. Unlike learning to shoot an arrow, caring for an animal isnt something you can simply abandon，” said Carly Playforth, 16, of Lexington.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文， 向我们讲述了一群城里的孩子来到乡间农场体验不同的生活，照顾农场动物的故事。1What is the requirement for kids before they get animals?AAttend a class.BPay certain money.CHave varied skills.DGet special club programs.A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“must do a sixhour class before they get an animal”可知， 得到动物之前， 孩子们必须上一节六小时的课程， 这个课程可能是培训孩子们如何照顾动物的。2What do we know about the club?AIt offers services unconditionally.BIt pays for their use of the barn.CIt lets mothers care for animals.DIt allows mothers to push kids.D推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Most are driven to the barn by their mothers”可推知， 该俱乐部让孩子的妈妈督促孩子参与农场活动， 故选D项。3How does Carly Playforth feel about the experience?ASuspicious.BMoved.CAppreciative.DOpposed.C观点态度题。最后一段首句是段落主旨句，作者引用Carly Playforth的话是为了进一步说明照顾动物教会孩子们的珍贵东西， 比如责任。 由此可知， Carly Playforth对这种经历是赞赏的(appreciative)。4What is the passage mainly about?

They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century. Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had, on average, 13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein(蛋白质). The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc than rice grown under normal conditions. However, vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average.The researchers said the effects of planetwarming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries. These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets. That includes about 600 million people in Indonesia, Cambodia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Laos and other nations, mainly in Southeast Asia.Other studies have shown that higher temperatures from climate change and weather extremes will reduce food production. And scientists are finding that rising levels of carbon dioxide and other planetwarming gases threaten food quality.Earlier studies showed that wheat, rice, field peas and soybeans grown under high carbon dioxide conditions all had lower levels of protein and minerals. Scientists predicted that almost 150 million people might be at risk of having too little protein or zinc in their diet by 2050.The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change. That is to grow different forms of rice that can adapt to higher carbon dioxide levels.【语篇解读】本文介绍了温室气体如何减少粮食作物中的营养物质以及降低气候变化对营养物的损害的方法。5Growing rice under high carbon dioxide conditions may Aincrease iron in the riceBmake it less nutritiousCcause losses of vitamin EDmake it more deliciousB细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had, on average, 13 to 30 percent lower levels.less protein(蛋白质)”可知， B项为正确答案。A、C、D三项的表述均与原文表述不符。6How can people reduce the nutritional harm of climate change?ABy importing rice from China and Japan.BBy taking other kinds of food instead of rice.CBy avoiding eating rice from Southeast Asia.DBy growing rice suitable for the environment.D细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“That is to grow different forms of rice that can adapt to higher carbon dioxide levels.”可知， D项为正确答案。7Whats the authors purpose of writing the text?ATo inform readers what nutrients food crops contain.BTo call on people to care for the planet they live on.CTo share the results of some studies on peoples diets.DTo tell readers where food crops are mainly produced.B写作意图题。通读全文可知， 本文通过介绍温室气体增加对粮食作物的影响来唤起人们对人类赖以生存的地球家园的保护。故选B。8In which part of a magazine can you read the text?AAdvertisements.

However, some people dont do it enough, while some people overthink everything. If youre an overthinker, it can be exhausting running through all the possibilities of everything. Its not good that the whatifs run your life and you are trapped. 1 Here are some signs that you are an overthinker, even if you dont feel you are. 2 Why didnt the girl look at me？And why did Peter look away so fast？What does it all mean？When youre an overthinker, you tend to find meaning in the world around you. Its helpful to remind yourself that things mean the meaning you give them.You think more than you do.Sometimes you think so much that you dont end up doing anything. You weigh the choices, decide which is the best, and compare it with a new choice. You end up doing nothing. 3 You find it difficult to let things go.When youve invested a lot of time and energy into something, it can be hard to let it go when it isnt working. 4 The more you think about something, the more it can eat away at you.You want to get everything right.You might be a perfectionist. You always do your best. But when you dont get everything right, you seriously blame yourself. By recognizing that this can be a strength as well as a Weakness, you should know that you simply cant get everything right, despite your best efforts. 5 Remind yourself that you can balance your level of overthinking with more doing. You can even teach someone else who underthinks!AYou may continue thinking about it even when you believe you have already let it go.BYou assume that others know what youre thinking about.CRemember that, instead of just thinking，its equally important to act.DYoure proud of the act that youre always thinking.EYou look for meaning in everything.FIts even worse when youre unaware that you are just like this.GCan any of the above signs be found on you?【语篇解读】本文主要对过度思虑的一些迹象进行了简要的说明。1F根据上文中的“Its not good that the whatifs run your life and you are trapped”可知，空处应是说明更深一层的坏处，所以选F项。2E根据文章结构及空处所在的位置可知，空处为本段的小标题，且根据本段的内容及关键词“meaning”可知，E项能概括本段内容。3C根据本段的小标题You think more than you do及空处前一句可推知，空处是作者针对该段描述的现象所给出的建议。故C项符合语境。4A根据本段的小标题You find it difficult to let things go 及空后一句“The more you think about something, the more it can eat away at you”可推知，A项符合语境。5G与上文“Here are some signs that you are an overthinker, even if you dont feel you are”呼应可知，G项符合语境。.语法填空(2019济南八市高三联考)Jin Yong(10 March 192430 October 2018) was a Chinese wuxia novelist，1. cofounded the Hong Kong daily newspaper Ming Bao in 1959 and served as 2. first editorinchief.He was one of the most famous writers in China.His wuxia has a widespread following in Chinese communities worldwide.His 15 works 3.
