The Future Leaders is a year-round leadership development programme that is changing
lives for a diverse range of young people in New Zealand. It is part-time, designed for young
people aged 16-25. You’ll meet amazing people, and attend the national event Festival for
the Future. You’ll get access to coaching and mentoring （指导）, workshops to help you develop
ideas and skills for the future, and make a difference in your community.
Are you aged 16-25? Do you want to be inspired, build your connections and skills for
the future? Apply now. Two great ways you can apply to take part.
Option 1 — applying as a Catalyst (a person that causes a change) is the best way to boost
your capability. The key difference between this and the wider ‘Future Leaders’ option, is
that you’ll attend all three national hui (including Festival for the Future), get access to one-
on-one support through mentoring and coaching, and take more of a leadership role working
with other Catalysts to develop and lead a project in your community.
Whilst there’s no cost to you, if you’re offered a place as a Catalyst it’s the equivalent

1高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
of receiving a $5,000 scholarship to support your training and development. Spaces are
strictly limited to 4 Catalysts per community.
Option 2 — applying as a Future Leader is the lighter way to experience the programme.
Whilst you won’t attend all three national hui or get one-on-one coaching and mentoring,
you’ll still make awesome connections, be inspired and build your leadership skills. You’ll
get the chance to attend Festival for the Future in Wellington, attend local events and
workshops, and get involved in the project in your community.
Whilst there’s no cost to you, if you’re offered a place as a Future Leaders, it’s the
equivalent of receiving a $1,000 scholarship to support your training and development.
Spaces are limited.

Myles Kerr knew that being a Marine （水兵） comes with a lot of responsibility, but despite
the huge weight he has on his shoulders, he has not forgotten the essence of being a public
servant — that of being human.
Seven years ago, a photo of a Marine and a young boy running a marathon immediately
went viral after it was shared on social media. But what seemed like a simple image packed a
2高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
much deeper backstory. This story happened in 2013, but its relevance is still as powerful as
ever.
The pair were running The Jeff Drench Memorial 5K in Charlevoix, Michigan when
Myles Kerr came across Brandon Fuchs, a 9-year old boy struggling to keep up with the rest
of his group. Brandon, exhausted and out of breath, asked the Marine: “Will you run with
me?”
People who had their eyes on the prize would have refused, but the 19-year-old was
different. Being a Marine, he knew exactly what he should do. Kerr put aside his goal of
beating his mates and instead slowed down to accompany the struggling boy to the finish line.
Because he chose to help the boy, the Marine ended up with the slowest time in his age
group, according to the 5K results online.
Though he might have lost the race, the Marine won over people’s hearts. His act of
kindness was celebrated on social media.
Kerr didn’t expect that his simple gesture would attract so much attention. He
responded to a tweet praising his actions saying,“I was just doing what any man would do,
but thank you! ” He also tweeted that he received gifts from the Fuchs family for helping out
Brandon.
To Kerr, being a Marine was more than just being trained for combat — it also required
learning how to be kind and compassionate towards the citizens they serve.
4. What was Myles Kerr seven years ago?
A. A marine. B. A public servant.
C. A marathon runner. D. A Michigan citizen.
5. What is Myles Kerr’s original goal to participate in the marathon?
A. To win over people’s hearts. B. To accompany the boy.
C. To get the best score in his age group. D. To build up his body.
6. Which of the following best describe Myles Kerr?
A. Kind and unselfish. B. Enthusiastic and generous.
C. Responsible and proud. D. Stubborn and helpful.
7. What does the story mainly convey?
A. Being a Marine bears a lot.
B. Kindness matters more than prizes.
C. Being a Marine means a public servant.
D. Good actions spread quickly.

Turtles may be cute, but they are also slow and clumsy, which doesn’t really help them
when they are trying to cross train tracks. Luckily, for the turtles in Japan’s Hyōgo
Prefecture, railway operators and a local aquarium teamed up to find a solution.
Between 2002 and 2014, disruptions （中断） of train operation caused by turtles were
reported 13 times, with many more probably going unreported. That is why, in 2015, West
Japan Railway Co. and Suma Aqualife Park in Kobe joint forces to prevent tragic turtle
deaths on the tracks and unnecessary train delay. After running a series of tests and
experiments, they came up with a U-shaped ditch （沟渠） that collects the turtles, preventing
them from getting stuck between the metal tracks and getting crushed to death.
Tests showed that turtles trying to cross the train tracks often fall into the space between
them, which leaves them with no other option than to walk between them. Sadly, this causes
some of them to get stuck between the metal tracks at junctions （ 交 叉 口 ）, and they
unavoidably get crushed to death when the points blades （叶片） move.
“The turtles are basically just going about their daily business and have to cross the
lines to get to a pond,” a railway spokesperson said. “When the points blades move,
unfortunately they get squashed between them and die. They can cause long delays to
operations so we consulted with a turtle specialist to find the best way to help them.”
The U-shaped concrete ditches installed at several critical points along the train lines
near the city of Kobe catch the turtles at danger of getting stuck between the tracks. They
allow the turtles to get past the junctions safely. 10 turtles were reportedly saved in the first
month since the U-shaped ditch was put to use in November 2015.
8. What’s the best title of the text?
A. An Important Invention in Japan
B. The U-shaped Concrete Ditches
C. Turtles Crossing Train Tracks in Danger
D. Japan’s Clever Solution to Help Turtles Cross Train Tracks
9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Why the U-shaped ditch is invented.
B. The turtles’ terrible conditions.
C. The train delay caused by turtles.
D. How the turtles go through the tracks.
10. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The turtles. B. The trains.
C. The train tracks. D. The points blades.
4高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
11. What can we infer about the ditches?
A. They are installed on the railway tracks.
B. They can prevent turtles from escaping.
C. They are easy to trap the turtles.
D. They are helpful for turtles to cross train tracks.
D
The ocean covers over 70 percent of the surface of Earth today, but over 3 billion years
ago the entire planet may have been covered in water. To investigate what our planet was like
billions of years ago, a team of researchers turned to indirect methods of analysis at a
geological site in the Australian Outback known as Panorama （全景画） in the Pilbara Craton.
Today, the region is 100 kilometers inland, but 3.2 billion years ago, it was deep underwater.
In fact, there were also once ancient hydrothermal vents （热水口） there where seawater
bubbled up through the ocean floor. “There are no samples of really ancient ocean water
lying around, but we do have rocks that interacted with that seawater and remembered that
interaction,” lead author Benjamin Johnson, an assistant professor at Iowa State University,
said in a statement.
The researchers collected over 100 of these rock samples and found something peculiar
in them: a slightly higher amount of a particular isotope （同位素） of oxygen. The vast majority
of oxygen on Earth is Oxygen-16 and contains eight protons （质子） and eight neutrons. However,
about 0.20 percent is Oxygen-18.
Samples from Australia show the region’s ancient water contained more Oxygen-18 than
present times. Since continents are covered in clay-rich soil that is efficient at trapping
Oxygen-18, the team suggests that without continents covered in soil, more Oxygen-18 would
have been present in the ocean. Their discovery indeed suggests there wasn’t much dry land
available 3.24 billion years ago.
“There’s nothing in what we’ve done that says you can’t have tiny, micro-continents
sticking out of the oceans,” added co-author Boswell Wing. “We just don’t think there were
global-scale formations of continental soils like we have today.” The researchers don’t know
when and how continents began to emerge out of the ocean but they plan to investigate
“younger” rock formations to piece together a more precise timeline.
5高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
12. Where is the research site?
A. In a region deep underwater.
B. In a region off Australia.
C. In a region inland Australia.
D. In a region outside the Pilbara Craton.
13. What do the underlined words “interact with” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Have an effect on each other.
B. Have a one-way effect.
C. Have a mysterious effect.
D. Have a negative effect.
14. What’s the researchers’ conclusion after analyzing samples from Australia?
A. Modern earth must have been a water world.
B. Modern earth must have been a continental world.
C. Ancient earth may have been a water world.
D. Ancient earth may have been a continental world.
15. What’s the researchers’ next focus of the study?
A. To research continental soils’ formations.
B. To research the ocean’s formations.
C. To research “older” rock formations.
D. To research “younger” rock formations.

If you look around the streets of London, you’ll see the many methods people use to
move around. 16 Now there’s a new addition: electric, or e-scooters （滑板车）.
This traditional children’s vehicle has become more complicated over the years. And
now, with the addition of a small electric motor, it’s become a cheap and easy mode of
transport. Scooting around town can be fun and doesn’t involve much effort. 17 But
considering accidents involving an electric scooter in the UK, questions are being asked
about their safety and whether traffic laws should be changed.
Many e-scooter riders in the UK broke the law. Some have been seen on pavements;
6高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
others on the road jumping red traffic lights, adding to the frustration of motorists stuck in
jams. In the UK, the law states that riding one on the public highway or pavement is
forbidden. But, despite this, it seems the increasing popularity of e-scooters means they can
be seen everywhere. 18
The UK government is looking at how safely they can be used on the road and is
‘reviewing’ the law. But its transport minister, Michael Ellis, has told the BBC that:
“Micromobility products are appearing in countries across the globe and are an exciting
innovation for which we know there is demand. 19 ”
20 Despite the fact that some of them can exceed 30mph, they sometimes only have
one brake and no lights. However confident the rider may be, larger vehicles on the road
make them unprotected. So it seems more work needs to be done to give e-scooters a safe
and legal space to travel in.
A. The roads are already crowded.
B. We are mainly after economic benefits.
C. People seldom see e-scooter accidents in the UK.
D. However, safety must always be our top priority.
E. And now users are calling on regulations to be changed.
F. There’s no doubt there are dangers in riding a two-wheeled scooter.
G. It’s no wonder they’re becoming increasingly popular in cities around the world.

It was an ordinary day for Shawn Turner and his kids as they were driving home along
Military Trail on the morning of February 23. However, all this was about to change when his
9-year-old son Timmy suddenly yelled from the backseat. He alerted him that there was a
car floating in the canal they were passing by.
Shawn immediately pulled off onto the shoulder near the Boca Raton canal. The 33-
year-old dad rushed out of his vehicle and saw a woman behind the wheel in the sinking car.
Knowing that there was no time to waste, Shawn quickly took off his sweatpants and jumped
into the water.
He swam up to the window and confirmed that the woman, later identified as Molly
9高三第二轮复习质量检测英语试题 第 页（共 1０ 页）
Pedrone, was unconscious. She was still buckled (弯曲) in as her white Kia Soul filled with water.
A woman also jumped in to assist with the rescue.
He shot his hand through the cracked window to roll it all the way down and launched
his body halfway across the front seat. Shawn struggled to unbuckle Molly’s seatbelt. Just
then, a man later identified as Adam Gunn dived into the water and quickly swam towards
the driver’s side window.
By then, the car was close to being fully submerged. Shawn climbed inside to free Molly.
Shawn lifted Molly out of her seat so that Adam could pull her through the driver’s side
window. Because of his weight, the car started sinking faster. His 14-year-old son, who was
filming the rescue, yelled in panic,“Dad, jump out! Get out! ”
Just as the car’s entire front was underwater, Shawn’s head emerged from the surface.
He, the woman, and Adam carried Molly to the shore. As they were bringing her to the bank,
Molly opened her eyes, looking confused.
“I told her to relax, that she was in an accident and that her car went into the water,”
Shawn said.
However, Molly had no recollection of the whole rescue, it was when she got in the
hospital that she understood everything that had happened.

One possible version:
Para 1: The attack rendered her unconscious, and that’s when her car came crashing
into the canal. Molly started having the illness 13 years ago and started treating it with
medication. The drug helped her manage the attack, but its cost took a toll on her finances.
Even with insurance, the medicine cost her $500 a month. She couldn’t get help from her
doctor to find a more affordable alternative, so she weaned herself off — then came the
accident. (77)
Para 2: Molly and Shawn met on Tuesday, and she says she couldn’t thank him enough
and everyone involved in for what they did for her. “It was nice to meet him and thank him,
because I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for him,” Molly said. “He and Adam are the ones
that jumped in and saved me, and they deserve all the praise in the world as far as I’m
concerned.”(71)
