In her spare time, she volunteers at Richmond Animal Care & Control (RACC), and she recently found a way to he
18、lpthe animals find their way home just a little bit faster. Kensey spoke with Christie Peters, director of RACC, who also happens to be the mother of one of her students. They cooked up an idea to introduce the class to a rescue dog named Snow, then give them the task of writing persuasive stories a
19、nd making drawings from the dogs perspectives（角度）. These works would then be placed on the shelter animals cage. “Im a very cute dog, ” one child wrote for a dog called Famous Amos. “Dont you love my name? Do you love me? I hope you do because then you can adopt me!”Each of the drawings is 100 perce
20、nt unique as well as being incredibly cute. Christie knew the project would be a hit as soon as she heard Kenseys idea. “The class was working on persuasive writing, and they wrote pieces as if they were speaking on behalf of the shelter dog trying to get adopted, ” she said. “I said, Lets do it. ”“
21、Im so proud to see my students write amazing persuasive paragraphs through the eyes of one of their RACC dogs, ” Kensey explained. After meeting Snow, the kids were allowed to choose an adoptable dog from the list of those available at RACC. The kids were then told of the dogs unique personalities,
22、likes, and dislikes. In the end, the students wrote about 24 stories!So far, eight animals have gone home after their new owners read their letters!

Do You Love Animals?CVostok Station is a Russian weather station in Antarctica, which is widely known for having the coldest temperature ever recorded on Earth: -89. 2. But last Friday, Vostok set another record, this time for its warmest
26、March temperature ever: -18, 15 warmer than average. Other areas in Antarctica were even hotter. A nearby weather station was 37 higher than average. Some places here were expected to be as much as 50 warmer than normal. Scientists said, “At this time of year, Antarctica is losing 25 minutes of dayl
27、ight every day, and should be getting colder instead of warmer. ” But an “atmospheric river” of warm, wet air hit Antarctica last Tuesday. This kind of weather pattern isnt that unusual. But once it got to Antarctica, it was blocked from leaving by a high pressure system called a “pressure dome”. Sc
28、ientists say its too early to say if this event was caused by climate change. But they say theyre watching carefully to see if this is a one-time event or part of a new pattern. On the other hand, winter is just now ending at the North Pole, which means the sun hasnt been shining there for about six
29、 months. But that hasnt stopped the Arctic from having a heat wave. Temperatures in the Arctic are about 14 higher than normal. Some areas have seen temperatures as much as 28 above average. Scientists are paying great attention to the weather here. In fact, the Arctic is warming two to three times
30、faster than the rest of the planet, and warming events seem increasingly common in recent years. There are concerns that this pattern will continue and that the melting（融化） of ice here will increase. Scientists explained, this time, the very specific cause for the Arctic heat wave:a“bomb cyclone”, a
31、 storm that gathers great strength very quickly. This one formed over the east coast of North America, and headed north. The pressure inside this storm system fell sharply, pulling an atmospheric river of wet war air toward the North Pole. 28. What has Vostok Station done lately?A. It has moved to t
32、he coldest place in the world. B. It has teamed up with a nearby weather station. C. Its monitored an extremely abnormal temperature. D. Its finished the temperature records for Antarctica. 29.

33、mate system. B. Their impression of the Antarctic seasons. C. Their ideas of forming a pressure dome. D. Their attitude toward climate change. 30. Why are scientists watching the weather in the Arctic closely?A. Its winter ends earlier than usual. B. Warming events occur more frequently. C. The melt
34、ing of ice is more serious this year. D. The temperature is higher than that in Antarctica. 31. What did scientists think of the Arctic heat wave this time?A. Controllable. B. Predictable. C. Adaptable. D. Understandable. DBefore Starlink, a new satellite Internet system from the company SpaceX, mos
35、t satellite Internet service was based on satellites that constantly remained above one point on Earth-over Chicago, for example, which means that signals from farther away need to travel a long distance, causing delays. Starlink has a web of satellites moving constantly in a low orbit around the Ea
36、rth. Because the satellites are closer, the speeds are faster, which makes the service better for things that need to happen without delays, like holding meetings over the Internet. To get on the Internet with Starlink, users need a terminal（终端）. The terminal tracks the web of satellites and communi
37、cates with them to provide Internet service. The service works as long as the terminal is placed where it can “see” the sky. Starlink currently works in 31 countries, but SpaceX plans to expand the service to cover the whole world. The clearest need for this kind of service is in remote areas. Starl
38、ink terminals also work from moving objects, so SpaceX is also planning to offer service on transportation, like planes, trains, and boats. Starlink currently has over 2, 100 satellites in orbit around Earth. SpaceX has permission from the US government to launch 12, 000 satellites, and it has asked
39、 for permission to launch as many as 30, 000 more. Astronomers have complained that Starlink satellites are causing light pollution. This makes it harder to study things in space with satellites getting in the way. SpaceX has worked to abate the light from Starlink satellites. But scientists say the
40、 satellites still make their work harder. This will get worse as more satellites fill the skies. There are also concerns about Starlink satellites crashing into other satellites or spacecraft. In 2019, a European satellite had to move to avoid coming close to Starlink satellites. Still, Starlink has
41、 been useful in emergencies. When the island nation of Tonga lost Internet service after a volcanoerupted in January, 2022, SpaceX was able to provide temporary service using Starlink. 32. What does paragraph 1 focus on about Starlink?A. Its developments. B. Its history. C. Its advantages. D. Its or
42、igin. 33. Which word best describes SpaceX when it comes to Starlink?A. Cautious. B. Ambitious. C. Generous. D. Controversial. 34. What does the underlined word “abate” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Ignore. B. Protect. C. Discover. D. Reduce. 35. Why is Tongas volcanic eruption mentioned?A. To prove Starli
43、nks usefulness. B. To show its damge to Starlink. C. To explain why Starlink is developed. D. To analyze how Starlink is improved. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。There is a lot to learn about the unusual habits and characteristics of the British people whenyou visit
