When I bught a huse in Prtland fur years ag, I immediately began designing my dream garden, intending t remve the weeds and plant sme vegetables r lng-lasting flwers. I sn discvered, hwever, that the sil was unprductive, clay-heavy and littered with stnes. In previus, much tinier gardens, I’d fix it with a few bags f high-quality sil frm the nursery. Replacing this vastly greater quantity f dirt was neither practical nr financially pssible. Instead, I decided t remediate (补救) what I already had.
The challenge befre me was t revitalize the sil. Tw cre principles f mdern agriculture can guide this shift: minimizing sil disturbance and emphasizing bidiversity. In practice, grwing crps by turns, priritizing rganic inputs ver chemical fertilizers, integrating crps, trees and livestck, and shielding sil frm being washed away with cver crps, ften wrk.
I tried t apply such methds in my garden. Where nce there was nly grass, I created a pnd, a rck garden, a wildflwer field and raised beds fr vegetables. I let plants grw and decmpse by themselves in a natural way. I als intrduced different plants and revived its eclgical cmmunities.
In May, I decided t relcate a flwering plant. As I dug the plant ut, all manner f life emerged. Earthwrms swung frm the rts. A daddy lnglegs hurried fr shelter. Belw the plant I even nticed the fine white lattice f a fungal mycelium.
Running my fingers thrugh the sil, I understd, mre clearly than ever befre, that I transfrmed much mre than my yard — it cmpletely changed the way I think abut sil. It’s nt simply as a medium fr life, but as a living entity (个体) in its wn right. Althugh science still lacks an agreed definitin f life, textbks highlight criteria widely cnsidered t differentiate the living and nnliving. Sil meets many f them: It has a highly rganized structure. It has a capacity fr active self-preservatin. It grws. It breathes. And it can die.
4. Hw did the authr use t imprve the sil?
A. By adding rich sil.B. By cvering it with bags.
C. By remving the weeds.D. By applying chemical fertilizer.
5. What des the underlined wrd “shielding” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Expsing.B. Separating.C. Sheltering.D. Mnitring.
6. What is the purpse f paragraph 4?
A. T explain the prcess f transplanting.B. T illustrate the preventin f insect attacks.
C. T stress the cmpetitin f different species.D. T state the frmatin f multi-species cmmunities.
7 What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The Sul f SilB. The Vitality f the Wild
C. The Art f GardeningD. The Whisper f Flwers

Overseeing the develpment f a literary culture, which is part f a critic’s jb, is a prcess f fits and starts. Critics play a rle in determining which bks published tday shuld be labeled “instant classics”, which bks are best described as “little-knwn” and which bks published in past decades r centuries deserve re-examinatin. Beginning in the early 20th century, reissues cmplicated thse categries. Older bks like “The Dud Avcad” and “Stner” — and even “Mby-Dick” and “The Great Gatsby” — became mre famus upn reprinting than they had been when riginally published.
The cann (文学经典) itself is in a cnstant, nging prcess f being shaped by bk lvers wh are ften in disagreement nt nly abut what qualifies as literature but als abut the purpse f reading literature. A reissue, mre ften than nt published after the authr is dead, rebalances the purpse f literature away frm writer intent and mre tward reader intent.
Early last year, the small magazine n+1 restated a lngstanding plicy: N dead peple. Reading wrk frm dead authrs may be unavidable, but as literary critics tasked with creating and shaping the cnversatin, writing abut dead peple was cnsidered unacceptable — because it was unfair t expect that cntemprary writers, already struggling t secure attentin fr their wrk, cmpete with dead writers. We need, n+1 argued, t “refcus the public’s attentin n the under-read wrk f the living.”
It’s true that the literary wrld — perhaps egged n by editrs, publishers and critics alike — frequently talks abut reviving unjustly ignred vices frm the depths f histry, trying t ensure they are rescued frm being frgtten. We dn’t reissue the wrk f dead authrs in rder t d right by them, but because their wrk is a piece f histry. We need t understand literature in its wn right and as an expressin f its wn time and cntext, even if that cntext is hrrifying r uninviting r prblematic. Reading well — and writing gd criticism — brings a sense f wnder t histry, and despite the emtinal influences that may smetimes inspire reissues, they uniquely cnnect us t the past, which will always be imprtant.
8. What des the authr indicate by mentining the lder bks in paragraph 1?
A. Reissues make srting harder.B. Reissues never bst ppularity.
C. New editins shw mre changes.D. Critics shuld recategrize reissues.
9. What can we say abut a reissue frm paragraph 2?
A. It is made t a cnsistent standard.B. It causes disagreements amng readers.
C. It breathes life int frgtten literary wrks.D. It shifts the literary fcus tward readers’ needs.
10. What effect did n+1 expect frm its plicy?
A. Inspiring living writers t learn frm dead writers.B. Bridging the divide between critics and writers.
C. Making mre living writers’ vices heard.D. Making critics less hard n living writers.
11. Hw des the authr lk at reissuing dead authrs’ wrks?
A. A way t crrect past injustices against authrs.B. A methd t celebrate authrs’ cntributins.
C. A means t btain insights int the histry.D. A strategy t maintain literary traditins.

A technlgy with rts ging back t the Brnze Age may ffer a fast and inexpensive apprach t helping achieve the United Natins climate gal f net zer emissins by 2050, accrding t recent Stanfrd-led research.
The technlgy invlves fitting heat-absrbing bricks in an insulated (隔热的) cntainer, where they can stre heat generated by slar r wind pwer fr later use in industrial prcesses. The heat can then be released when needed by passing air thrugh channels in the piles f “firebricks”, thus allwing cement, steel, glass, and paper factries t run n renewable energy even when wind and sunshine are unavailable. These systems are a frm f thermal energy (热能) strage. The bricks are made frm the same materials as the bricks that lined primitive kilns (窑) thusands f years ag.
Batteries can stre electricity and prvide it t generate heat n demand. “The differences between firebrick strage and battery strage are that the firebricks stre heat rather than electricity and that their cst is ne-tenth the cst f batteries,” said lead study authr Mark Z. Jacbsn, a prfessr at Stanfrd University. “The materials are basically just the cmpnents f dirt. ”
The researchers adpted cmputer mdels t cmpare csts, land needs, health impacts, and emissins invlved in tw scenaris fr an imagined future where 149 cuntries in 2050 are using renewable surces fr all energy purpses. In ne scenari, firebricks prvide 90% f industrial prcess heat. In the ther, there’s zer adptin f firebricks r ther frms f thermal energy strage. The researchers fund the scenari with firebricks culd cut csts by $1.27 trillin acrss the 149 cuntries, while reducing the demand fr electrical energy and energy strage capacity frm batteries.
Jacbsn’s fcus n firebricks is relatively new, inspired by a desire t identify effective slutins that culd be adpted quickly. “Here I can see a substantial benefits at lw cst frm multiple angles, frm helping reduce air pllutin deaths t making it easier t turn the wrld t clean energy,” he said.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. Hw firebrick strage technlgy wrks.B. Hw firebricks are prduced sustainably.
C. What thermal energy means scientifically.D. What thermal energy strage is used t d.
13. What advantages d firebrick have ver battery?
A. Firebrick can stre heat and cst less.B. Firebrick can generate mre electricity.
C. Firebrick can prvide heat mre quickly.D. Firebrick is made f mre advanced materials.
14. Why are the cmputer mdels adpted?
A. T test the durability f firebricks.B. T cut the csts f firebricks.
C. T explre the effectiveness f firebricks.D. T test energy strage capacity f firebricks.
15. What might be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The usage f firebricks can replace batteries.
B. Embracing renewable electricity becmes pssible.
C. Innvative systems turn heat int electricity cheaply.
D. An ld technlgy can aid the switch t clean energy.

B
When I bught a huse in Prtland fur years ag, I immediately began designing my dream garden, intending t remve the weeds and plant sme vegetables r lng-lasting flwers. I sn discvered, hwever, that the sil was unprductive, clay-heavy and littered with stnes. In previus, much tinier gardens, I’d fix it with a few bags f high-quality sil frm the nursery. Replacing this vastly greater quantity f dirt was neither practical nr financially pssible. Instead, I decided t remediate (补救) what I already had.
The challenge befre me was t revitalize the sil. Tw cre principles f mdern agriculture can guide this shift: minimizing sil disturbance and emphasizing bidiversity. In practice, grwing crps by turns, priritizing rganic inputs ver chemical fertilizers, integrating crps, trees and livestck, and shielding sil frm being washed away with cver crps, ften wrk.
I tried t apply such methds in my garden. Where nce there was nly grass, I created a pnd, a rck garden, a wildflwer field and raised beds fr vegetables. I let plants grw and decmpse by themselves in a natural way. I als intrduced different plants and revived its eclgical cmmunities.
In May, I decided t relcate a flwering plant. As I dug the plant ut, all manner f life emerged. Earthwrms swung frm the rts. A daddy lnglegs hurried fr shelter. Belw the plant I even nticed the fine white lattice f a fungal mycelium.
Running my fingers thrugh the sil, I understd, mre clearly than ever befre, that I transfrmed much mre than my yard — it cmpletely changed the way I think abut sil. It’s nt simply as a medium fr life, but as a living entity (个体) in its wn right. Althugh science still lacks an agreed definitin f life, textbks highlight criteria widely cnsidered t differentiate the living and nnliving. Sil meets many f them: It has a highly rganized structure. It has a capacity fr active self-preservatin. It grws. It breathes. And it can die.
4. Hw did the authr use t imprve the sil?
A. By adding rich sil.B. By cvering it with bags.
C. By remving the weeds.D. By applying chemical fertilizer.
5. What des the underlined wrd “shielding” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Expsing.B. Separating.C. Sheltering.D. Mnitring.
6. What is the purpse f paragraph 4?
A. T explain the prcess f transplanting.B. T illustrate the preventin f insect attacks.
C. T stress the cmpetitin f different species.D. T state the frmatin f multi-species cmmunities.
7. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The Sul f SilB. The Vitality f the Wild
C. The Art f GardeningD. The Whisper f Flwers
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文 。文章讲述作者四年前在波特兰买房后打理花园，面对贫瘠土壤，采用现代农业方法改良，最终对土壤有全新认知的过程。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In previus, much tinier gardens, I’d fix it with a few bags f high-quality sil frm the nursery.(以前，在那些小得多的花园里，我会用从苗圃买来的几袋优质土壤来改良土壤)”可知，作者过去是通过添加优质土壤来改善土壤的，也就是添加肥沃的土壤。故选A项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Tw cre principles f mdern agriculture can guide this shift: minimizing sil disturbance and emphasizing bidiversity. In practice, grwing crps by turns, priritizing rganic inputs ver chemical fertilizers, integrating crps, trees and livestck(现代农业的两个核心原则可以指导这一转变：尽量减少土壤扰动和强调生物多样性。在实践中，轮流种植作物；优先使用有机肥料而非化肥；将农作物、树木以及家畜进行整合)”和划线词后面“…sil frm being washed away with cver crps (用覆盖作物来……土壤被冲走)”可知，这里说的是一些现代农业的原则及实践方法，提到用覆盖作物来防止土壤被冲走，划线词在此处应是“保护、防护”的意思，与“Sheltering”意思相近。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In May, I decided t relcate a flwering plant. As I dug the plant ut, all manner f life emerged. Earthwrms swung frm the rts. A daddy lnglegs hurried fr shelter. Belw the plant I even nticed the fine white lattice f a fungal mycelium.(五月的时候，我决定移栽一株开花植物。当我把这株植物挖出来时，各种各样的生物都冒了出来。蚯蚓在根部扭动着，一只长脚蜘蛛匆匆寻找藏身之处。在这株植物的下方，我甚至还看到了真菌菌丝体那细密的白色网状结构)”可知，本段描述了作者在移栽开花植物时，看到了蚯蚓、长脚蜘蛛以及真菌菌丝体等各种各样的生物出现，展现了多种生物共存的情况，目的是说明形成了多物种的群落。故选D项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“The challenge befre me was t revitalize the sil. (摆在我面前的挑战是重振土壤)”和最后一段“Running my fingers thrugh the sil, I understd, mre clearly than ever befre, that I transfrmed much mre than my yard — it cmpletely changed the way I think abut sil. It’s nt simply as a medium fr life, but as a living entity (个体) in its wn right.(我用手指穿过土壤，比以往任何时候都更清楚地意识到，我改变的不仅仅是我的院子——它完全改变了我对土壤的看法。它不仅仅是作为生命的媒介，而且本身就是一个有生命的实体)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者打理花园改造土壤的过程，通过实践对土壤有了新的认识，认为土壤不仅仅是生命的介质，它本身就是一个有生命的个体，强调了土壤的重要性及独特“生命力”，因此，A选项“土壤的灵魂”作为标题最为合适，能够概括文章的主旨。故选A项。
C
Overseeing the develpment f a literary culture, which is part f a critic’s jb, is a prcess f fits and starts. Critics play a rle in determining which bks published tday shuld be labeled “instant classics”, which bks are best described as “little-knwn” and which bks published in past decades r centuries deserve re-examinatin. Beginning in the early 20th century, reissues cmplicated thse categries. Older bks like “The Dud Avcad” and “Stner” — and even “Mby-Dick” and “The Great Gatsby” — became mre famus upn reprinting than they had been when riginally published.
The cann (文学经典) itself is in a cnstant, nging prcess f being shaped by bk lvers wh are ften in disagreement nt nly abut what qualifies as literature but als abut the purpse f reading literature. A reissue, mre ften than nt published after the authr is dead, rebalances the purpse f literature away frm writer intent and mre tward reader intent.
Early last year, the small magazine n+1 restated a lngstanding plicy: N dead peple. Reading wrk frm dead authrs may be unavidable, but as literary critics tasked with creating and shaping the cnversatin, writing abut dead peple was cnsidered unacceptable — because it was unfair t expect that cntemprary writers, already struggling t secure attentin fr their wrk, cmpete with dead writers. We need, n+1 argued, t “refcus the public’s attentin n the under-read wrk f the living.”
It’s true that the literary wrld — perhaps egged n by editrs, publishers and critics alike — frequently talks abut reviving unjustly ignred vices frm the depths f histry, trying t ensure they are rescued frm being frgtten. We dn’t reissue the wrk f dead authrs in rder t d right by them, but because their wrk is a piece f histry. We need t understand literature in its wn right and as an expressin f its wn time and cntext, even if that cntext is hrrifying r uninviting r prblematic. Reading well — and writing gd criticism — brings a sense f wnder t histry, and despite the emtinal influences that may smetimes inspire reissues, they uniquely cnnect us t the past, which will always be imprtant.
8. What des the authr indicate by mentining the lder bks in paragraph 1?
A. Reissues make srting harder.B. Reissues never bst ppularity.
C. New editins shw mre changes.D. Critics shuld recategrize reissues.
9. What can we say abut a reissue frm paragraph 2?
A. It is made t a cnsistent standard.B. It causes disagreements amng readers.
C. It breathes life int frgtten literary wrks.D. It shifts the literary fcus tward readers’ needs.
10. What effect did n+1 expect frm its plicy?
A. Inspiring living writers t learn frm dead writers.B. Bridging the divide between critics and writers.
C. Making mre living writers’ vices heard.D. Making critics less hard n living writers.
11. Hw des the authr lk at reissuing dead authrs’ wrks?
A. A way t crrect past injustices against authrs.B. A methd t celebrate authrs’ cntributins.
C. A means t btain insights int the histry.D. A strategy t maintain literary traditins.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了监督文学文化的发展。评论家们在决定今天出版的哪些书应该被贴上“即时经典”的标签，哪些书最适合被描述为“鲜为人知”，哪些书在过去几十年或几个世纪里出版，值得重新审视。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Beginning in the early 20th century, reissues cmplicated thse categries. Older bks like “The Dud Avcad” and “Stner” — and even “Mby-Dick” and “The Great Gatsby” — became mre famus upn reprinting than they had been when riginally published.(从20世纪初开始，重新发行使这些分类变得复杂。像《烂鳄梨》和《斯通纳》这样的老书，甚至《白鲸》和《了不起的盖茨比》，在重印后比最初出版时更出名。)”可知，作者提到老书在重新分类发行后更出名，是为了说明重新发行会加大分类难度。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“A reissue, mre ften than nt published after the authr is dead, rebalances the purpse f literature away frm writer intent and mre tward reader intent.(重新发行往往是在作者死后才出版，它重新平衡了文学的目的，使其远离作者的意图，更倾向于读者的意图。)”可知，重新发行把文学的焦点转向了读者的需要。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Early last year, the small magazine n+1 restated a lngstanding plicy: N dead peple.(去年年初，小型杂志《n+1》重申了一项长期政策：不接受死人。) ”和“We need, n+1 argued, t “refcus the public’s attentin n the under-read wrk f the living.”(《n+1》认为，我们需要“把公众的注意力重新集中到那些被忽视的活着的人的作品上”。)”可知，《n+1》期望从其政策中让更多在世作家的声音被听到。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We dn’t reissue the wrk f dead authrs in rder t d right by them, but because their wrk is a piece f histry.(我们重新发行已故作者的作品不是为了对他们做正确的事，而是因为他们的作品是一段历史。)”可知，作者认为重新发行已故作者的作品意味着获得对历史的洞察。故选C项。

Scrates, the renwned ancient Greek philspher, famusly stated, “The unexamined life is nt wrth living.”___16___ He believed true wisdm and persnal grwth culdn’t be achieved in an unexamined life.
The Scratic Methd, named after Scrates himself, is a frm f cperative dialgue where ne asks a series f pen-ended questins t guide anther tward insight and understanding. Fr example, imagine a teacher discussing mralities with students. The teacher may nt explain what is “right” r “wrng”. ___17___ And fllw up with questins like, “Why d we cnsider sme actins fair and thers unfair?” Thrugh this questining, students are led t think mre critically and examine their wn values and assumptins rather than just accepting the predetermined answers.
___18___When yu ask yurself, fr instance, “Why d yu believe this?” r “What evidence supprts yur thinking?”, yu are encuraged t cnsider whether yur beliefs are truly yur wn r influenced by external factrs. This prcess f questining leads t self-reflectin, helping individuals better understand the underlying mtivatins behind their thughts and actins.
Self-reflectin is like hitting the pause buttn n life. ___19___And it als lks clsely at yur wn thughts, feelings, and experiences. An unexamined life, hwever, is ne where peple g thrugh the mtins withut ever questining.

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以苏格拉底的名言“未经审视的生活是不值得过的”为切入点，介绍了苏格拉底方法，并阐述了自我反思的重要性以及未经审视的生活的弊端。
【16题详解】
上文“Scrates, the renwned ancient Greek philspher, famusly stated, ‘The unexamined life is nt wrth living.’(著名的古希腊哲学家苏格拉底有句名言：‘未经审视的生活是不值得过的’)”引出了苏格拉底的这句名言。G选项“This pwerful declaratin serves as a call t dig deeper int ne’s wn thughts.(这句有力的宣言呼吁人们更深入地挖掘自己的思想)”对这句名言进行了进一步解读，说明其作用是引导人们深入思考自己的思想，与上文逻辑紧密。故选G项。
【17题详解】
上文“The teacher may nt explain what is ‘right’ r ‘wrng’.(老师可能不会解释什么是‘对’或‘错’)”表明老师不会直接给出对错的定义。F选项“Instead, he r she might ask ‘What des it mean t act mrally?’(相反，他或她可能会问 ‘道德行事意味着什么? ’)”与上文形成转折，说明老师会通过提问的方式引导学生思考，符合苏格拉底方法中通过提问引导他人思考的特点，上下文衔接自然。故选F项。
【18题详解】
下文“When yu ask yurself, fr instance, ‘Why d yu believe this?’ r ‘What evidence supprts yur thinking?’(例如，当你问自己‘你为什么相信这个?’或‘有什么证据支持你的想法?’)”具体说明了自我审视时的提问方式。E选项“The Scratic Methd is a pwerful tl fr self-examinatin.(苏格拉底方法是一种强大的自我审视工具)”起到了承上启下的作用，既承接上文对苏格拉底方法的介绍，又引出下文关于自我审视的具体内容。故选E项。
【19题详解】
上文“Self-reflectin is like hitting the pause buttn n life.(自我反思就像按下生活的暂停键)”将自我反思比喻为暂停键。A选项“It gives yu a mment t step back.(它给你一个退后一步思考的时刻)”进一步解释了按下暂停键的意义，即让人有时间退后一步思考，与上文逻辑一致。故选A项。
【20题详解】
上文“Living an unexamined life is similar t casting n autmatic pilt, where ne simply accepts scial standards withut critically evaluating them. In this kind f life, yu’re swept alng by sciety’s expectatins.(过一种未经审视的生活就像在自动驾驶状态下滑行，人们只是简单地接受社会标准而不进行批判性评估。在这种生活中，你会被社会的期望所裹挟)”描述了未经审视的生活的状态。B选项“Yu are barely aware f yur wn desires.(你几乎意识不到自己的欲望)”进一步说明了在这种生活状态下的结果，即人们会忽略自己的欲望，上下文语意连贯。故选B项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国南方的甜品“糖水”，以海椰子为例说明其制作不易，还指出市场上的海椰子并非真正的海椰子，以及真正海椰子的保护情况。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：尽管听起来可能含糖量过高，但糖水并非糖浆沼泽，而是一种甜度适中的汤品，因其营养而备受赞誉。as引导让步状语从句时，结构为“形容词/副词/名词+as+主语+谓语”，提示词作表语，表明主语it(即“糖水”)的性质，用形容词sugary作表语，意为“含糖的；甜的”。故填sugary。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意：尽管听起来可能含糖量过高，但糖水并非糖浆沼泽，而是一种甜度适中的汤品，因其营养而备受赞誉。(be) celebrated fr是固定短语，意为“因……而闻名/备受赞誉”。故填fr。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：糖水通常是各种复杂的菜肴，以木瓜和燕窝等多种食材为特色，但尤其是海椰子，需要母亲般的关爱才能端上餐桌。“___3___ feature multiple ingredients as varied as papaya and bird’s nest”是限制性定语从句，修饰先行词dishes，指物，关系词将其代入从句中作主语，用关系代词that或which引导从句。故填that/which。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：首先，很少有市场摊位出售新鲜水果，因为它在热带高温下很快就会变酸。动词sur(变酸)作从句谓语，根据语境可知，这里描述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，主语it是第三人称单数代词，谓语动词用单数形式。故填surs。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：有趣的是，到目前为止我一直在谈论的海椰子并不是真正的海椰子，而且每个亚洲餐厅的菜单和每个罐装水果标签上所声称的也不是真的。提示词修饰整个句子，用副词interestingly作评注性状语，意为“有趣的是”；句首单词首字母大写。故填Interestingly。
【41题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：有趣是，到目前为止我一直在谈论的海椰子并不是真正的海椰子，而且每个亚洲餐厅的菜单和每个罐装水果标签上所声称的也不是真的。“___6___ every Asian restaurant menu and every canned fruit label claims”是主语从句，从句中缺少宾语，表示“(每个亚洲餐厅的菜单和每个罐装水果标签上所声称的)东西”，用连接代词what引导从句。故填what。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：真正的海椰子是一种受保护的物种，其出口受到严格控制，每个果实都带有政府颁发的序列标签。可数名词species表示“一种物种”，泛指，且prtected是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：真正的海椰子是一种受保护的物种，其出口受到严格控制，每个果实都带有政府颁发的序列标签。提示词作with复合结构中宾语补足语，bear(带有)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语each fruit之间是主动关系，用现在分词表主动。故填bearing。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：曾经人们认为海椰子生长在海底的一棵神话般的树上，16世纪时，欧洲贵族用无价的宝石装饰海椰子壳。“Once (believe) t grw frm a mythical (神话的) tree n the bttm f the sea”作原因状语，believe(认为)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语sea ccnut shells之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动。故填believed。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意：曾经人们认为海椰子生长在海底的一棵神话般的树上，16世纪时，欧洲贵族用无价的宝石装饰海椰子壳。提示词作宾语，根据语境可知，这里指欧洲的“贵族们”，用可数名词nble(贵族)的复数形式。故填nbles。
