When Merle was a child, she was often sick. To get stronger, she took up swimming. Soon, she was taking part in open-water swimming competition. Merle moved to Florida 13 years ago, but she continued to swim in the ocean. One day during training, she almost swallowed (吞) some floating plastic waste. This made her think of the sea animals. She decided to do something to let people see this serious problem.
Merle had an idea of swimming like an ocean animal. She began to swim with rubbery fin (脚蹼) on her feet. Instead of using her arms, she swam forward by kicking her legs together. In 2019, Merle set a world record for the first time for swimming with a rubbery fin. She swam 10 kilometers. In 2021, she broke the record by swimming 30 kilometers. But Merle believed she could go farther. Every day, she got up at 4 a.m., put on her fin and went swimming.
Finally, on May 7, 2022, Merle managed to break the record again. She swam 42.2 kilometers. It took her nearly 12 hours! Along the way, she picked up all the trash and put it in kayak (皮划艇). She got three full bags of the trash in the end.

Every Wednesday evening, a group of runners in Shanghai get together and have their 5-to-8-kilometer run in the city. This is not an ordinary (普通的) run. The runners take trash (垃圾) bags with them and pick up trash when they run.
“Make running more than just running,” Kate Sogor, one of the runners, says. She wears a blue T-shirt with “WE RUN FOR TRASH” on the back. Besides (除……以外) the weekly runs, the group also has family runs once a month. Children and even pets can take part in the activity.
Sogor says there are more than 200 trash runners from all walks of life in the city, such as office workers, yoga teachers and restaurant owners. Over 90 percent of the group members are Chinese. The oldest are in their 40s, and the youngest is just 5.
“I feel great to make the Earth cleaner,” says an 8-year-old boy. He joined the group last month with his parents. The boy broke his left arm, but he keeps running and picks up trash with his right hand.

Many people are active in fighting against unfair treatment to animals. Today I am talking about fighting for looking after our environment. Though the environment doesn’t have a mouth to cry what people have done to her, she does through action.
In the early years some people cut down some trees, leading to the disappearance of big forests and terrible floods(洪水). Another example was many factories, freeing gas without clearing it. Many cities were covered with so much bad gas that people were killed by the air. It’s a terrible scene!
If we don’t take action to show honor to the environment, we will have to face an increasingly awful situation. First, governments should keep rivers, lakes, oceans... Second, voices should be made to the public of the importance of protecting the environment. Third, plants should pay special attention to the effect they have on the environment and work out solutions for the problems.
Only by changing the way we treat the environment can we have a nice home. Only by saving the environment can we save ourselves.
31．The writer is talking about fighting for respect to ________.
A．Environment. B．Animals C．Factories.
32．Which is TRUE according to the passage
A．The environment doesn’t have a mouth to cry, but she does through action.
B．All people are active in fighting for fair treatment to green trees.
C．Many cities are full of bad gas that is good for people.
33．What can we know from the passage
A．You can’t see the disappearance of terrible floods.
B．If we show honor to the environment, we have a nice home.
C．Some factories are giving off clean gas.
34．How many tips does the writer give us
A．One. B．Two. C．Three.
35．On which website can we probably read this passage
A．www.dongman./
B．www..cn/ food
C．www./

I finally stopped fighting my lifelong love of traveling. I left my job to do it full time. I’ve been traveling the world on my own since 2018. In the past years, I’ve been to 25 countries (if not for COVID-19, it would have been at least 10 more!). Now I’d like to talk about my experience in New Zealand.
Of the two islands in New Zealand, I liked the North Island better. It was my first stop. When I was in Wellington, I stayed in Karori. It only needs a 10-minute bus ride to the center. I got a beautiful view of the city and went to a free museum. I learned about the city’s past there. Rotorua is also a good place. It is known for its hot springs and mudbaths (泥浴). I had never heard of an acidic (酸性的) pool, but I found that it did help with aches and pains. Then I spent half a day learning about Maori customs and starting with a village tour. After a walk around the shops, I enjoyed a lot of corn cooked in their thermal baths (温泉浴).
After visiting the North Island, I went to the South Island. Lake Tekapo might be the most beautiful lake I have ever seen. Its color in the sun forced me to sit down and enjoy. The night sky was wonderful, with a small church for perfect photos. I had to say that the mutton here was really delicious. It was a pity that I ate it only when I was about to leave the island.
All in all, I was lucky to experience the wonders of both islands and the culture. I started my blog, Heather Begins. You can find some advice on a journey in New Zealand there.
36．When did the writer start travelling the world by himself
37．Did the writer stay near the center of New Zealand
38．What can the springs and mudbaths at Rotorua help people with
39．Why did the writer think it was a pity to have the delicious mutton
40．According to the passage, which place of interest in New Zealand will you recommend (推荐) to others

第一节 语篇翻译 阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。（共5小题，计10分）
How do you keep your journeys alive With the Internet, you can post your journey on social media. Your online posts usually show your best sides. 1. 写旅游日志与那不一样。In a personal travel journal, you record a more authentic version of events. After all, your target reader is just you yourself. That's why travel journals are making a comeback. 2. 我从九岁开始就已经写旅游日志了。It helps me remember those good old days on the road.
With a travel journal, you keep much more than a photo and a few words. 3. You record your thoughts, your feelings and anything else during your travel. With your pen and paper, you can keep the most important parts of your trip.
Before you hit the road, the first step to journal success is packing the right things. You can take easy things to go with you. And you can also make time for you to sit down and write down things on your journey. Some questions may help you remember what to write: What did I do or see What can I hear or smell right now in this place What was the hardest thing about today 4. How did I deal with it
Also, one thing to remember: 5. Enjoying your travel is always more important than writing travel journals. When you feel a sense of wonder, just take the time to experience that feeling!

51．例文：
Recently, we have discussed the ways to go traveling. Here is the result. Some students choose to travel with a group. With a guide’s help, they won’t get lost and they don’t need to look for hotels by themselves. Besides, they can make friends and help each other while traveling.
However, other students prefer to travel alone. That’s because they can arrange their time freely and choose to visit their favorite sights. What’s more, it’s a chance for them to look after themselves.
For me, I’d like to travel alone. I want to spend enough time visiting the places I like. In this way, I can enjoy my vacation better.
