Dr. Joseph Dituri, also known as “Dr. Deep Sea”, had an amazing adventure. For 100 days, the University of South Florida teacher lived underwater. He set a new world record, beating the old record of 73 days.
Dr. Dituri began the project on March 1, 2023. His goal was to stay for 100 days at a special underwater hotel called Jules’s Undersea Lodge. The hotel is 22 feet (6.7 meters) under the ocean surface in a protected area in Key Largo, Florida, US.
The farther you go below the ocean’s surface, the greater the pressure. Dr. Dituri wanted to learn how this pressure affects the human body over time. In his undersea room, Dr. Dituri was living with pressure that was about 66 percent greater than the pressure on the surface.
Dr. Dituri believes that high pressure could help people live longer and stay healthier as they get older. It could also help doctors treat different medical problems, including brain injuries. Dr. Dituri’s room was only 100 square feet (9.3 square meters). But it had somewhere to sleep, a small living room and a kitchen.
While underwater, Dr. Dituri stayed busy. He often exercised in the morning. He taught his college classes and had online chats with over 5,500 students from 15 different countries and regions.
On June 9, 2023, Dr. Dituri returned to the surface where he could finally see the sun again. Doctors quickly checked that he was okay. “The human body has never been underwater that long,” Dr. Dituri said. “This experience has changed me in an important way.”

D. He is the owner of the underwater hotel.

Many Canadian kids woke up to the smell of wildfire smoke last summer. Some are wondering: Is it dangerous How can I protect myself CBC Kids News talked to two children’s lung specialists, Tom Kovesi and Dan Hughes, to find out how kids can stay safe.
Is wildfire smoke dangerous
For most people, the impact of wildfire smoke is only short-lived. Effects can include irritation (刺激) of the eyes, nose and throat; coughing and shortness of breath. They will get worse the more time you spend outdoors, especially if you’re active outside—doing sports and other exercise,
I spend my summers around a campfire. _____▲_____
The difference between campfire smoke and wildfire smoke is that wildfire smoke is harder to avoid, Hughes said. “When you’re camping, you typically don’t stay in front of a fire for too long,” he said. “And if it’s really smoky, you’d probably sit upwind from the smoke or take a break.” Wildfire smoke, on the other hand, is everywhere. Therefore, the effects can be more long-term and dangerous.
The key to staying safe Stay inside.
Both Kovesi and Hughes agree that the best thing for kids to do is stay inside when wildfire smoke is in the air.
“It’s especially important for kids who are super active to stop those activities. This is not the time to go jogging, play soccer and other sports, ” Hughes said. “Those activities require you to breathe harder and deeper, which gives you a greater exposure (暴露) to the smoke and the particles (微粒) the smoke carries.” Other steps you can take.
It’s best to close your windows and doors when inside. You can also use an air conditioner, if you have one, to filter (过滤) the air more. Kovesi said that masks can also help lower the risk a little, particularly N95 masks. But they need to be worn correctly.
12. Wildfire smoke can make people ___________.
A. die young B. be super active C. stop coughing D. feel breathless
13. What sentence should be put into the _____▲_____
A. Where is campfire smoke from
B. How is it different from wildfire smoke
C. What causes wildfire smoke
D. How can we stop them
14. Which of the following can we do to stay safe from wildfire smoke
a. b. c. d.
A. ac B. ad C. bc D. cd

七、阅读表达(共5小题, 满分10分)
阅读短文，根据要求完成1—5题。
In an NBA game on March 2, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James made history in the world of basketball. He became the first player in NBA history to score 40,000 career points (职业积分).
Starting to play basketball at age 18, James was a record-breaker from the start. He got many records for being the youngest player to reach different milestones (里程碑). The earliest one was in 2004 when he became the youngest player to reach 1,000 points.
Now, the 39-year-old has already played over 21 seasons. But he is as strong and hard-working as ever. “I come to work every night when it’s time to play, and I just try to go out and contribute (贡献),” he said to Associated Press. “I’m still able to do the things that I was doing 10 years ago, and even some things 20 years ago.”
James’ record of 40,000 points will be very difficult to break. In NBA history, the player best at scoring is Michael Jordan. He got 30.12 points per game on average (平均地). However, even with this scoring average, it would take Jordan at least another 1,329 games to reach 40,000 points, noted Beijing News. Besides, he stopped playing many years ago.
Still, James feels a bit of regret. The Lakers often loses when he shines. This time, again, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets.
On March 2 after the game, James said that being the first to do something is cool. “But for me, the main thing is to win, and I hated that my record-breaking moment had to happen in a defeat(失败),” he added.

【答案】例文：
A choice I made
There is no doubt that it is important for us to make reasonable choices in life.
Last year, I fell in love with volleyball. Then I chose to be a member of the school volleyball club. However, my parents wanted me to spend more time on schoolwork. I had a long talk with them calmly. After that, I trained hard in the club. Meanwhile, I reviewed my schoolwork as long as I finished training. To my joy, I got satisfying results not only in the matches but also in the tests.
All in all, no matter what the choice is, if it is reasonable, just follow your heart. Only in this way can it bring out the best in you.

Dr. Joseph Dituri, also known as “Dr. Deep Sea”, had an amazing adventure. For 100 days, the University of South Florida teacher lived underwater. He set a new world record, beating the old record of 73 days.
Dr. Dituri began the project on March 1, 2023. His goal was to stay for 100 days at a special underwater hotel called Jules’s Undersea Lodge. The hotel is 22 feet (6.7 meters) under the ocean surface in a protected area in Key Largo, Florida, US.
The farther you go below the ocean’s surface, the greater the pressure. Dr. Dituri wanted to learn how this pressure affects the human body over time. In his undersea room, Dr. Dituri was living with pressure that was about 66 percent greater than the pressure on the surface.
Dr. Dituri believes that high pressure could help people live longer and stay healthier as they get older. It could also help doctors treat different medical problems, including brain injuries. Dr. Dituri’s room was only 100 square feet (9.3 square meters). But it had somewhere to sleep, a small living room and a kitchen.
While underwater, Dr. Dituri stayed busy. He often exercised in the morning. He taught his college classes and had online chats with over 5,500 students from 15 different countries and regions.
On June 9, 2023, Dr. Dituri returned to the surface where he could finally see the sun again. Doctors quickly checked that he was okay. “The human body has never been underwater that long,” Dr. Dituri said. “This experience has changed me in an important way.”
8. Which of the following is TRUE about Dr. Dituri
A. He is an American university teacher.
B. He is good at swimming and diving.
C. He was not in a good health condition.
D. He is the owner of the underwater hotel.

Many Canadian kids woke up to the smell of wildfire smoke last summer. Some are wondering: Is it dangerous How can I protect myself CBC Kids News talked to two children’s lung specialists, Tom Kovesi and Dan Hughes, to find out how kids can stay safe.
Is wildfire smoke dangerous
For most people, the impact of wildfire smoke is only short-lived. Effects can include irritation (刺激) of the eyes, nose and throat; coughing and shortness of breath. They will get worse the more time you spend outdoors, especially if you’re active outside—doing sports and other exercise,
I spend my summers around a campfire _____▲_____
The difference between campfire smoke and wildfire smoke is that wildfire smoke is harder to avoid, Hughes said. “When you’re camping, you typically don’t stay in front of a fire for too long,” he said. “And if it’s really smoky, you’d probably sit upwind from the smoke or take a break.” Wildfire smoke, on the other hand, is everywhere. Therefore, the effects can be more long-term and dangerous.
The key to staying safe Stay inside.
Both Kovesi and Hughes agree that the best thing for kids to do is stay inside when wildfire smoke is in the air.
“It’s especially important for kids who are super active to stop those activities. This is not the time to go jogging, play soccer and other sports, ” Hughes said. “Those activities require you to breathe harder and deeper, which gives you a greater exposure (暴露) to the smoke and the particles (微粒) the smoke carries.” Other steps you can take.
It’s best to close your windows and doors when inside. You can also use an air conditioner, if you have one, to filter (过滤) the air more. Kovesi said that masks can also help lower the risk a little, particularly N95 masks. But they need to be worn correctly.
12. Wildfire smoke can make people ___________.
A. die young B. be super active C. stop coughing D. feel breathless
13. What sentence should be put into the _____▲_____
A. Where is campfire smoke from
B How is it different from wildfire smoke
C. What causes wildfire smoke
D. How can we stop them
14. Which of the following can we do to stay safe from wildfire smoke
a. b. c. d.
A. ac B. ad C. bc D. cd
15. In which section of a magazine could you read the passage
A. Opinion. B. Tech. C. Health. D. Travel.

In an NBA game on March 2, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James made history in the world of basketball. He became the first player in NBA history to score 40,000 career points (职业积分).
Starting to play basketball at age 18, James was a record-breaker from the start. He got many records for being the youngest player to reach different milestones (里程碑). The earliest one was in 2004 when he became the youngest player to reach 1,000 points.
Now, the 39-year-old has already played over 21 seasons. But he is as strong and hard-working as ever. “I come to work every night when it’s time to play, and I just try to go out and contribute (贡献),” he said to Associated Press. “I’m still able to do the things that I was doing 10 years ago, and even some things 20 years ago.”
James’ record of 40,000 points will be very difficult to break. In NBA history, the player best at scoring is Michael Jordan. He got 30.12 points per game on average (平均地). However, even with this scoring average, it would take Jordan at least another 1,329 games to reach 40,000 points, noted Beijing News. Besides, he stopped playing many years ago.
Still, James feels a bit of regret. The Lakers often loses when he shines. This time, again, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets.
On March 2 after the game, James said that being the first to do something is cool. “But for me, the main thing is to win, and I hated that my record-breaking moment had to happen in a defeat(失败),” he added.
