(2024·济南模拟)
When Josephine Cooper was growing up, she learned the importance of charity from her parents. Although they made a modest living for their family of 10, they insisted on sharing with those less fortunate.
Half a century later, Mrs. Cooper became a beloved volunteer at the San Diego Food Bank, where she devoted herself to helping others. She organized and ran a distribution center of a church, helping it become the organization’s largest emergency food distribution center in San Diego. She was one of the 25 outstanding senior volunteers in the nation selected and invited to Washington D. C. to receive an award.
“She was the main person who helped us make that program grow, ”said Mike Doody, former director of the Food Bank, “She had a way of getting people to work together and to work hard. She was determined and stubborn, but in a good way. She had a good heart. ”People knew her as “Grandma” because of her selflessness and her devotion to helping hungry children and families. “She reminded people of their Grandma, ” Doody said.
As a widow with a young child in 1979, Mrs. Cooper was helped through a difficult financial time when the Food Bank provided her with groceries. “She devoted her life to giving back, ”said her daughter, Monica Cooper. It wasn’t unusual for a local church to call Mrs. Cooper to ask her to aid a needy family. “She would give people food out of her cupboard. Sometimes we would cook a meal for a family living in their car, ”Cooper said.
Although Mrs. Cooper was honoured to receive the national award for her volunteer work, she said being able to help others was her reward. She died of liver disease and kidney failure, aged 93. (295W)

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。
The War Against Sand
Imagine living on the edge of a vast desert, which is moving quietly closer to your village every day and covering your fields. The desert is on the move. This is called desertification.
Desertification occurs in regions close to an already existing desert. 1 The first is over-use of water in the area. There is not enough water in any case, and if it is not carefully used, disaster can follow. As time goes on, water shortages make farming more and more difficult. In some places, locals can remember local lakes and marshes which were once the homes for all kinds of fish and birds. 2 Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.
The second cause is misuse or over-use of the land. 3 Ploughing(耕)large fields and removing bushes and trees mean that the wind will blow away the soil. Once the soil is lost, it is hard to replace, and if there is rain, it has nowhere to go, and brings no benefit.
4 Every spring, the skies over some of eastern cities, thousands of kilometers away from the deserts, can be darkened by sandstorms. Dust from deserts can have a great effect on weather systems. While desertification is perhaps being partly caused by global warming, these sandstorms can make global warming worse by adding to what is known as the greenhouse effect.
What can be done to slow down or stop the process of desertification? A great deal of work is already under way. Obviously the first step is to find new water sources. 5 Some types of grass also hold the soil together, and stop the wind taking it. Without these efforts, it will be harder and harder to stop the world’s deserts in their tracks, and more and more farmers will give up and head for cities. The lesson to be learnt lies beneath the sand.
A. It generally arises from two related causes.
B. It is not only the farmers and villagers who suffer.
C. They have been completely buried by the sand now.
D. Scientists are doing the research on the cause of desertification.
E. They destroy the land, as the soil dries out and is then blown away.
F. Tree planting can help, by providing barriers between deserts and rich fields.
G. This means that the wrong crops are planted, and need more water than is available.

12.【解析】选A。考查with的复合结构。snow和cover之间是逻辑上的主谓关系, 且表示一种状态, 应用“with+名词+现在分词”结构, 因此选A。
【知识拓展】
小议“with的复合结构”
“with+宾语+宾语补足语”构成with的复合结构。宾语可以是名词或是代词, 宾语补足语可以是介词短语、过去分词、现在分词、形容词、动词不定式、副词。该结构在句子中作状语, 表示原因、时间、条件、伴随、方式等。其后接非谓语动词作宾语补足语时, 其形式取决于动作是否发生以及宾语和宾语补足语之间的关系。例如:
(1)With a lot of work to do, I have no time to go out with you. (不定式表将来动作)
有许多工作要做, 我没时间和你一起出去。
(2)We found the house easily with the little boy leading the way. (现在分词表示主动动作, 即分词所表示的动作是由with后的宾语发出来的)
由那个小男孩领路, 我们很容易地找到了那座房子。
(3)With all the things she needed bought, she went home happily. (过去分词表示被动, with后面的宾语与过去分词之间是被动关系)
由于需要的东西都买到了, 她高兴地回家了。
13.【解析】选C。句意: 新的交通法规已经生效, 它肯定会对这个国家的交通产生影响。come into effect开始实施, 生效; have an effect on对……有影响, 是固定结构。
14.【解析】选A。根据句子的意思及主从句之间的关系, 应该是: 我们正在湖中游泳, 这时突然下起了暴雨。while不能用于此句型, until和before都不与suddenly连用。
15.【解析】选B。考查动词-ing形式作伴随状语。句中listen和try not to miss为同时进行的动作, 故用现在分词的一般式作伴随状语。又动词不定式的否定式要在其前加not。故选B。
Ⅱ.
