湖南省湖南师范大学附属中学2023-2024学年高三上学期第三次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Cannes(戛纳)is a place that offers lots of different ways to spoil yourself. During the Cannes Film Festival in May, nothing changes, except that there are more people doing this, and that they talk about film. Here’s a guide to what you should do during the festival, both film-related and not.Hotel Intercontinental CarltonThe film festival is a busy time for Cannes. The best way to appreciate the crowds might be having a dinner on a terrace(露天平台). Head to the Hotel Intercontinental Carlton and wander the lobby to take it all in. If you’re lucky you might be able to secure a table in the restaurant. Dress to impress or you won’t stand a chance of getting in.Cinema de la PlageThroughout the Cannes Film Festival, one of the best places to soak up some of the wonderful atmosphere is the open-air Cinema de la Plage at Mace beach. If you haven’t secured a ticket in advance for a seat, there’s no need to worry. You can spread a blanket out on the ground, open up your pre-prepared picnic, and enjoy the movie.Marché ForvilleThe Marché Forville is a must-see for any visitor to Cannes and a foodie’．s delight. On most days, vendors sell home-made fruits and vegetables as well as local specialties to eat for lunch. But don’t go on Mondays, unless you want to browse for bargains, as that’s when the flea market is on instead.La CroisetteLa Croisette is the most famous walk in Cannes and is listed under the cultural inventory of France itself. Stroll the whole length, stop for a coffee, and end your walk by sitting on one of the free blue chairs along the way while taking in the view. It is also a great place to admire Cannes’ sculptures.1．What is probably the intention of the text?A．To introduce French culture.B．To present dining locations.C．To publicize a film festival.D．To suggest tourism activities.2．Which place best suits people who enjoy shopping?A．Hotel Intercontinental Carlton.B．Cinema de la Plage.C．Marché Forville.D．La Croisette.3．What can be expected in Cannes during the festival?A．Attending fashion shows.B．Watching movies outdoors.C．Tasting imported farm produce.D．Experiencing sculpture production.Coming into the freshman year at Paul College, Sansa was concerned about her ability as an individual to make an impact on such a large community, for it was never hard for her to stand out from peers in high school. Luckily, each first-year student in Paul College takes part in what is called the First-year Innovation and Research Experience, commonly referred to as the FIRE Program, an extracurricular project assigned by the institution. She was able to forge invaluable connections with her fellow students and their peer advisor who had so much first-hand experience with what they all were going through.The biggest highlight of her freshman year was working alongside her FIRE team on a Grand Challenge Project, in which every FIRE team competed against one another in the Undergraduate Research Conference. Each team had to create a unique product that tackled one of the five following real-world problems: “Water is Life”, “Food”, “Threats from Cyberspace”, “Medical Breakthroughs”, and “Addictive Society”. Her team addressed the growing issue of “Addictive Society”. Doing research, collecting facts and organizing discussions or even debates were a huge amount of work before they went to vie with other teams.After weeks of tireless preparation, their collective efforts bore fruit at the Undergraduate Research Conference. They earned a spot in the final round of the conference, where they competed against the top team from each of the other Grand Challenge groups. They were so overcome with pride when they were finally announced as the overall first-place team at the college!If it hadn’t been for her group’s determination, excellent teamwork and their awesome peer advisor Hayley, they would not have been able to accomplish everything they did. This experience would be instrumental in her future.4．What do we know about Sansa from paragraph 1?A．She performed quite well in high school.B．She was much more experienced than her college schoolmates.C．She applied for the FIRE Program.D．She had trouble with her freshman year.5．How did each team compete against one another?A．By providing facts.B．By creating products.C．By organizing debates.D．By challenging each other.6．What does the underlined phrase “vie with” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Contest against.B．Give way to.C．Break up with.D．Make up with.7．What is probably Sansa’s biggest gain from the FIRE Program?A．Financial benefits.B．Academic reputation.C．Good relationships.D．Competitive opponents.When Jason Allen submitted his “Th éâtre D’．opéra Spatial” into the Colorado StateFair’s fine arts competition, the print was an immediate hit, defeating 20 other artists in the “digitally manipulated photography” category to win the first-place blue ribbon and a $ 300 prize.Allen’s piece offers a clear example of how rapidly AI-generated art has advanced. Trained on billions of internet images, the systems have decisively pushed the boundaries of what computers can create.But it has also sparked a massive debate over the meaning of art, with Allen facing accusations that he had been deceiving with something he asked a machine to create.Text-to-image tools like DALL-E 2 and Midjourney have quickly increased in sophistication and have become one of the hottest topics in AI. They can generate not just fake people, objects and locations but mimic entire visual styles.But AI-generated art has been criticized as automated plagiarism (剽窃), because it relies on millions of ingested art pieces that are then parroted (机械地重复) together. It has also fueled deeper fears: blurring the boundaries of reality or interfering with human art.Allen said his art piece shows people need to “get past their denial and fear” of a technology that could give rise to new inventions and reshape our world. “The AI,” he said,“is a tool, just like the paintbrush is a tool. Without the person, there is no creative force.”Jessica Hair, a 25-year-old receptionist at a doctor’s office who won third place in the competition, said she did not feel as if Allen had acted unfairly and had no hard feelings about his win.Hair said her “Judge, Jury, Executioner”, which depicts a tuxedoed skeleton on a golden throne surrounded by skulls, took 15 hours to create with a stylus (触屏笔) on an iPad Pro. But Allen’s piece took time, effort and subjective judgment, too, and “how do we qualify what is and isn’t art?” she said.8．Which of the following statements can be inferred from the text?A．It is the first time in history that an AI-generated work has won an arts competition.B．Advances made in computer art are not as rapid as the public believes them to be.C．Computer-produced works have more success in some art forms than in others.D．People’s acceptance of computer-produced art pieces can vary considerably. 9．According to the text, why is AI-generated art facing severe criticism?A．Because it will ultimately overtake human art in the future.B．Because it will lead to a sharp decrease in human creativity.C．Because it purely uses existing art pieces as its subject matter.D．Because the technical standard of its output is extremely low.10．What was Allen’s reaction to people’s criticism?A．He fought back like a soldier.B．He kept silent like a victim.C．He persuaded like a promoter.D．He lost heart like a failure.11．What is Jessica Hair’s attitude towards Allen’s award-winning piece?A．Supportive.B．Critical.C．Cautious.D．Skeptical.The streets, sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day, making some urban areas across the United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day—and 22 degrees F hotter at night. These “urban heat islands”can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms.According to a new study of downtown Chicago, underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat in the first place. Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract (收缩) enough to cause potential damage. “Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming,” says the study’s author Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University.The findings, published in Communications Engineering, expose a “silent hazard (危险)” to civil infrastructure in cities with soft er ground — especially those near water — Rotta Loria says. “There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change.Similar to climate change above the surface, these underground changes occur over long periods of time. “These effects took decades, a century, to develop,” Rotta Loria says, adding that elevated underground temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (逐渐消失) on their own.But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy.12．What can we learn about the “urban heat islands”?A．They can develop underground structures.B．They are impacted by global warming.C．They can destroy the ground around.D．They only exist in the United States.13．Why does Alessandro F. Rotta Loria mention “silent hazard” in paragraph 3?A．To discuss structural issues.B．To categorize climate change.C．To explain underground heat.D．To emphasize the neglected reality.14．What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows?A．The future of tunnels and basements.B．The reusing approaches of heat energy.C．The cost of maintaining structures.D．The evolution of underground environment.15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Warming Underground, Weakening SurfaceB．A Silver Lining of Global WarmingC．Urban Silent Islands in the MakingD．A Silent Crisis in Downtown Chicago二、七选五Including children in the farming lifestyle has many benefits. Sure, it is nice to have the additional help with chores, but it also fosters so much growth, sending our kids down a good path towards who they will someday become. It is possible that our children will grow up to lead lives that do not include farming. 16Through caring for farm animals, kids learn that in life others often come before self.17 It doesn’t matter if we don’t feel like it or if we are sick and tired. What matters is that we take care of the animals that take care of us and do so in a timely manner.18 If the work on a farm does not get done, the operation fails. It takes discipline and commitment to get down to business every day, and seeing this in action will give kids a good work attitude. They will know and understand that nothing good comes easy and that they have to work to survive. 19 Functioning as part of a productive team will surely be playing a crucial role sooner or later in all walks of life.Additionally, farming teaches patience. 20 It’s especially true for the animals. Cattle will be difficult to control. Horses will run away when you try to catch them. Goats will kick over that bucket of hard-earned milk. A rooster will decide you got too close to his hens and give you a run for your money. In spite of all that, kids will learn to be patient and take things easy.There may not be any instant reward, but in the long-term kids will see the benefit of all their efforts during those hard days.A．Fairly often, things do not go your way.B．Kids also learn to be grateful to animals.C．In the meantime, they learn to work with others.D．Teamwork is no longer a significant skill to develop and use.E．Animals need to be fed and cared for before we get to sit down and relax.F．Kids are also able to comprehend the value of hard work through farm life.G．What they learn on a farm, however, can be instrumental in their future lives.三、完形填空27．A．could B．should C．would D．might 28．A．also B．again C．only D．instead 29．A．responded B．claimed C．updated D．expressed 30．A．odd B．general C．novel D．complicated 31．A．closed B．black C．plain D．blank 32．A．lesson B．blame C．curse D．ban 33．A．open B．click C．use D．function 34．A．refreshing B．crashing C．connecting D．running 35．A．advocate B．tolerate C．appreciate D．understand四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Although September's job 36 was stronger than most economists were expecting, it is still not growing fast enough for the millions of Americans 37 for work.In many U.S. cities, frustration over the scarcity（供不应求）of jobs is spilling out into the streets in the 38 of protests, like the "Jobs Not Cuts" rally in Washington.Many, including rapper Godfrey James, say lawmakers are not doing enough to help 39 Americans.Experts say hiring is likely to remain weak for the remainder of the year as companies wait for the economy to 40In New York, where the "Occupy Wall Street" movement appears to be gaining momentum（势头）, activists say the richest one percent own most of the country's wealth."I feel like the middle class has been almost completely 41 now. Now, you have got the bottom class and the top class," said one protester.42 , about 14 million Americans are unemployed, nearly 40 percent have been out of work for more than six months.President Barack Obama, who is running for re-election next year, is pressuring Congress to pass a $450 billion job creation plan. Republicans, who see the economy as the 43 weakness, have blocked many of his initiatives（提案）and are 44 to approve the package of tax cuts and public spending.But small business owner Dave Finnegan says Americans need to remind politicians who's 45 in charge."This is how things get done," said Finnegan. "That building, the Capitol building is only a place where they vote on stuff, it's not a place where things originate. Things 46 with people in the street. This is a democracy and it has to start here."While better than expected job numbers last month have helped calm fears of a new recession（不景气）, the nation's chronic high unemployment is expected to be a major issue in 2012.

By making computers personal 50. putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun. And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups 51. . Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like 52. was his last. 53. he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.The world has lost a visionary. And there may be 54. greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that 55. of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.Part ⅢReading Comprehension （30 marks）Directions：Read the following passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage．AWhen their parents were children, they imagined a future standing in front of a class of pupils or doing the rounds as a doctor．But today's British teenagers, a survey suggests, seem to have set their sights only on becoming the next Leona Lewis or Wayne Rooney．Researchers questioned 3,000 teenagers about their ambitions and also asked parents about their youthful career hopes．According to the survey, youngsters dream of a celebrity lifestyle, perhaps after finding fame through shows such as the X Factor, and of being actors or sports stars．Copying the likes of Rooney and David Beckham was the top career ambition of today's teenagers, cited by 12 percent．Almost as many, 11 percent, wanted to be pop stars, and the same proportion dreamed of being actors．The success of celebrity chefs such as Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay is likely to explain why becoming a chef is now the dream of 5 percent, a career ambition which did not figure in the list of 25years ago．A quarter of a century back teaching was the top career choice, cited by 15 percent．These days the job is chosen by only 4 percent．Of the traditional professions, only law has risen in popularity．The survey also suggests that more girls dream of becoming doctors and boys want careers as astronauts or firefighters．Child psychologist Laverne Antrobus said the findings reflect today's celebrity culture and warned children against unrealistic dreams．"Children see footballers, pop stars and actors on TV and their lives look exciting, glamorous and fun," she said．"It is hard for them to realize that they are the end product of a lot of ingredients including talent, determination and years of hard work．Wayne Rooney is not on the pitch by chance．"As Antrobus pointed out, there is absolutely nothing wrong with children having big dreams, but "these have to be based on reality," she said．56．The study suggests that today's British teenagers want to ______ sports stars, pop stars and actors．A．have the talent of B．work as hard asC．enjoy the celebrity lifestyles of D．become successful by chance like57．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．12 percent of British teenagers surveyed wanted to become chefs．B．22 percent of British teenagers surveyed wanted to be pop stars or actors．C．None of the traditional professions are favored by today's British teenagers, the survey suggests．D．Teaching, though less popular, seems to remain one of the top career choices on the list．58．According to child psychologist Laverne Antrobus, the change in career ambitions suggested by the study .A．represents progress B．mirrors today’s celebrity cultureC．shows how materialistic youngsters are D．suggests British teenagers watch too much TV 59．What does the underlined sentence "Wayne Rooney is not on the pitch by chance．" mean?A．Wayne Rooney does not get to play much today．B．Wayne Rooney didn't get into sport by chance．C．Wayne Rooney doesn't believe in luck when he is playing．D．Wayne Rooney didn't become successful by luck．60．The expert quoted in the article believes ______．A．there's no point in teenagers having dreamsB．it is wrong to desire to live the life of a celebrityC．young Britons have the same ambitions as their parentsD．children should set practical goals when they think of their careerBThe past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists （人类学家）．Descriptions like "Palaeolithic（旧石器时代的）Man" ．"Neolithic（新石器时代的）Man" ,etc．，neatly sum up whole periods．When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label" Legless Man"．Histories of the time will go something like this: "in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs．Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age．There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking．And the surprising thing is that they didn't use their legs even when they went on holiday．"The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes．In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way．Air travel gives you a bird's-eye view of the world．When you travel by car or train, an unclear picture of the countryside constantly smears the windows．Car drivers, especially, are mixed with the urge to go on and on: they never want to stop．The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says" I've been there．"You mention the remotest, and someone is bound to say "I've been there"—meaning, "I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else．"When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place．But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless．You want to move on again．By traveling like this, you suspend all experience．The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present．For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes．He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body．At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness．He knows that sound, satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers．61．Anthropologists label man nowadays "Legless" because______．A．people forget how to use their legs B．people prefer cars, buses and trainsC．lifts prevent people from walking D．there are a lot of transportation devices 62．Travelling at high speed means______．A．people’s focus on the futureB．a pleasureC．satisfying drivers’ great thrillD．a necessity of life63．Why does the author say ―we are deprived of the use of our eyes‖?A．People won’t use their eyes.B．In traveling at high speed, eyes become useless.C．People can’t see anything on their way of travel.D．People want to sleep during traveling.64．What does ―a bird’s-eye view‖ mean?A．See view with bird’s eyes.B．A bird looks at a beautiful view.C．It is a general view from a high position looking down.D．A scenic place.65．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A．Legs become weaker.B．Modern means of transportation make the world a small place.C．There is no need to use eyes.D．The best way to travel is on foot.CIf you see someone touched on the cheek, and feel as if your own cheek has been touched, then you have mirror-touch synesthesia (共感觉), a condition that causes people to feel the touches that they see others receive.As the name implies, a mirror effect is involved. If a mirror-touch synesthete is standing opposite someone and the non-synesthete is hit in the right arm, the synesthete will feel the blow in his or h er left arm. If the two are standing next to each other, contact with the non-synesthete’s right arm will be felt in the synesthete’s right arm.People with mirror-touch synesthesia have very active mirror neurons(神经细胞) that can produce intense sensations of emotional empathy(同情). Such people can not only imagine the pain of others, but often feel as if it were their own.Besides feeling what others feel, mirror-touch synesthetes are often morally extremely sensitive; many claim to be unable to understand how people can laugh at the misfortunes of others, and to find action and horror movies unbearable to watch.In 2003, Sarah Jane-Blak9emore, a neuroscientist(神经科学家) at University College London, net a 39-year-old woman who confirmed that she could feel contact that she only observed, such as a pinch(掐). She had thought all people were that way; it had never occurred to her that mirror-touch synesthesia was unusual. Researchers later discovered that 11 of the woman’s relatives had another type of synesthesia, known as color-grapheme synesthesia.Recent studies have shed more light on the phenomenon. Researchers have used brain scans, touch tests, and questionnaires to look for mirror-touch synesthesia in 10 subjects. Brain scans have shown that certain areas of the brain are extremely active when mirror-touch synesthetes see someone being touched, while in touch tests they often mistook an observed touch for the one applied to themselves.Learning why some people are highly sensitive to the emotions of others could teach us more about those who aren’t.66．If you’re a mirror-touch synesthete, which of the following best shows the function of the mirror effect in you?A．When you see someone with the broken leg, you try to help.B．When someone hits you on the head, you feel pain.C．When someone touches your left arm, your right arm feels it.D．When someone hits his left leg, your right leg feels it.67．According to the text, what causes mirror-touch synesthesia?A．Mirror neurons. B．A mirror effect. C．emotional empathy. D．Genes.68．All the following of another person can be sensed by a mirror-touch synesthete EXCEPT .A．being touched B．inner feelings C．knowledge D．pain69．Why is the 39-year-old woman mentioned in Paragraph 5?A．Because 11 of her relatives have synesthesia as well.B．Because she can feel pinch she only observes.C．Because Sarah Jane-Blakemore knew her well.D．Because she had never realized she had synesthesia.70．Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the text?A．We still know little about mirror-touch synesthesia.B．A mirror-touch synesthete is created by horror films.C．Brain scans show the crain is active when touched.D．We can learn about normal people by studying mirror-touch synesthesia.Part IV Writing（45 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions：Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NOMORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Stage FrightStage fright is not commonly thought of as a phobia. Officially, it can be recognized as a subset of glossophobia, or fear of public speaking, which is itself a type of social phobia. Many people who perform on a public stage, from kids in school to professional actors, are potentially at risk for stage fright. Even Hollywood lore is filled with tales of performers who have battled with this phobia.People suffering from stage fright have probably dealt with endless questions from family and friends as to why they put themselves through the torment. Two reasons, according to some experts, can account for this phenomenon. First, most performers haven’t had much practice at it. Any unfamiliar activity creates some stress. Second, none of them likes to be evaluated and they dislike the thought of having others examine them too closely.Then, if one suffers from stage fright, what symptoms can be experienced? The phobia generally begins weeks or months before the performance; they may begin to feel jumpy. As the date of the performance draws closer, the symptoms worsen. A few hours before the time when the performers participate in the show, they may meet some problems such as diarrhea(腹泻), and heart palpitations. Both during and after a show, one may even suffer from dry mouth, which is a very annoying problem to have. What’s worse, their hands may shake so much that they can’t read their own notes.It is important to find healthy ways to cope with stage fright. Many performers turn to self-medication, in an effort to dull the pain. This is never a good choice for anyone, because it can turn into a dangerous cycle for those who perform regularly. Like any phobia, stage fright is highly treatable. Many people with stage fright think that their performance will not be ―good enough‖, thereby disappointing their audience and ruining their own careers. Therapy can help you learn to replace these negative messages with more rational thoughts and with the help of some therapists you will also be taught relaxation exercises that you can do when the anxiety becomes overwhelming.Stage fright is remarkably common, and many performers never seek help. Treated properly, however, the condition can be successfully managed.Directions：Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the informationgiven in the passage．Forty-three years seems like a long time to remember the name of a mere acquaintance．I have forgotten the name of an old lady, who was a customer on the paper route in my home town when I was a twelve-year-old boy．Yet it dwells in my memory that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness that I shall never forget．On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the slanted roof of the old lady's house from a spot near her backyard．The object of our play was to observe how the stones changed to missiles as they rolled to the roof’s edge and shot out into the yard like comets(彗星) falling from the sky．I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out．The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady's back porch．At the sound of fractured glass, we knew we were in trouble．We turned tail8）and ran faster than any of our missiles flew off her roof．I was too scared about getting caught that first night to be concerned about the old lady with the broken window in winter．However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune．She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence．I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I calculated would cover the cost of her window．I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it．I waited until it was dark, snuck up to the old lady's house, and put the letter I didn't sign through the letter slot in her door．My soul felt redeemed and I could have the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old lady's kind eyes．The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was receiving from her．She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself．I thanked her and proceeded to eat the cookies as I continued my route．After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag．When I opened the envelope, I was stunned．Inside were the seven dollars and a short note that said, "I'm proud of you．"81.

point, my husband and I decided to 37 from our New York apartment to a new home in New Jersey．After we were there a while, our neighbor, whose cat had recently had kittens, asked us if we would like one．We were a little worried about Sam's 38 and how he would handle his turf （地盘）being invaded, but we decided to risk it and agreed to take a kitten．We picked a little, gray．playful ball of fur．It was like having a roadrunner in the house．-She raced around 39 imaginary mice and squirrels and vaulted from table to chair in the blink of an eye, so we named her Lightning．At first, Sam and Lightning were very cautious with each other and _40_ their distance．But slowly, as the days went on．Lightning started following Sam—up the stairs, down the stairs- into the kitchen to watch him eat．into the living room to watch him sleep．As time passed, they became inseparable．When they slept, it was always together; when they ate, it was always next to each other．When I played with one．the other 41 ．If Sam barked at something．Lightning ran to see what it was．When I took either one out of the house, the other was always waiting by the door when we returned．That was the way it was for years．Then, without any warning．Sam began suffering from convulsions（抽搐）and was diagnosed as having a weak heart．I had no other choice but to have him put down．The pain of making that 42 , however, was nothing compared with what I experienced when I had to leave Sam at the vet （兽医诊所）and walk into our house alone．This time, there was no Sam for Lightning to greet and no way to 43 why she would never see her friend again．In the days that followed．Lightning seemed 44 She could not tell me in words that she was suffering, but I could see the pain and disappointment in her eyes whenever anyone opened the front door, or the hope whenever she heard a dog 45 ．The weeks wore on and the cat's 46 seemed to be, lifting．One day as I walked into our living room, I happened to glance down on the

better．Harry Potter actors, who are now saying their final goodbyes to their roles, have all become fully-fledged grown-ups, worlds apart from the little kids who began the Hogwarts' adventures in 2001．While many fans feel sad that the magical franchise is coining to an end, some feel even sadder to seehow much the actors have changed over the years．"Daniel Radcliffe （who plays Harry Potter）went from being a really cute kid to a thin, pale-looking guy," said Filipino Internet User lealuvy2j．26．"I kind of wish he stayed a kid forever．''Radcliffe himself doesn't seem to be bothered by his change of appearance．In an interview with GQ magazine last week, he teased himself: "If people find me sexy or cool, it's because they like short, little, nerdy guys．And we do have our niche．"Meanwhile, actors growing up to be handsome have their headaches．Harry Melling, who played Potter's cousin Dudley Dursley, told The Telegraph that he was almost recast for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when producers discovered he' d lost a lot of weight he had as a kid．He was too thin for the part．"They （the producers）did this double take, 'Oh my God, we are going to have to do

were considering replacing Cyrus with a more clean-cut teen star．Cyrus finally kept her role after public apologies．But some parents banned their children watching the show．"My daughter has been

Here are some scenarios: things to come, things to go．Zero wasteWaste disposal is one of the biggest headaches for cities．Apart from recyclable waste, everything is buried or incinerated, only to pollute the environment．Plastic waste remains underground for several decades．The world produces much more garbage that it can dispose of．Now at the Expo, all waste is delivered to a compression station where the waste is sorted, filtered, decontaminated, deodorized and compressed before finally being disposed of at designated spots．In Beijing, people living in the Asuwei area turn their household waste into organic fertilizers which are used to grow plants at residence communities．No more transportation problems during Spring FestivalThe Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese．More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making obtaining travel tickets and the journey difficult．But in 28 years．Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all．China plans to have more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a rapid transportation network that will serve 90 percent of the population by 2020．And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so migration will no longer be so large-scale．Newspapers to disappearAmerican scholar Philip Meyer predicts that newspaper will come to an end in 2043．Utagawa Reizou, former editor-in-chief of The Mainichi Daily News．believes that the newspaper will be gone in 2030．This kind of prediction may worry those in print news business．In the U．K．, the circulations of national newspapers are declining．Major Japanese newspapers have gone intodebt．In the U．S．, decliningcirculations and ad revenues have forced several newspapers to stop printing paper editions．Media tycoon Rupert Murdoch thinks the future of media relies on interaction through the Internet．In the future, digital newspapers will be sent to portal web terminals through wirelessly．Readers can discuss issues with journalists and editors．Information will move faster．Oil to run outIn August 2009, Fatih Birol, chief economist of the International Energy Agency, said that oil is running out faster than expected and that the world will likely feel the tightness in supply in the next five years．Scientists have found substitutes for oil as fuel．Coal．natural gas．solar power, nuclear power and even water can replace oil as sources of energy．Flammable ice reserves alone can support humans for the next 1,000 years．66．By now, the world population in cities has grown to about _____．A．6．9 billion B．0．75 billion 'C．3．5 billion D．1．3 billion67．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Everything buried or incinerated, besides recyclable waste, pollutes the environment．B．People deal with their household waste in an environmental-friendly way in the Asuwei area, Beijing．C．More than 2 billion people suffer from headaches during the Spring Festival in China．D．By 2020,90 percent of the population will have to go to other places to find a job．68．According to the American predictor Philip Meyer, what will happen in 2043?A．Newspaper will disappear．B．Japan has to stop printing newspaper．C．Digital newspaper will be sent to portal web terminals．D．Information will move faster．69．_____ can replace oil as sources of energy in the future．A．Coal and natural gas B．Solar power and nuclear powerC．Water and flammable ice reserves D．All the above70．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A．The Shanghai 2010 World Expo B．What will city life be like in 28 yearsC．A rapidly urbanizing world D．Things to come, things to goPart IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.A bicycle helmet is a helmet intended to be worn while riding a bicycle．They are designed to reduce impacts to the skull of a cyclist in falls．However, there is a debate on whether helmets are useful for road cyclists．The World Health Organization promote the use of helmets as a strategy for preventing people' s heads from being injured by bicycle crashes or falls．Use of cycling helmets is supported by numerous groups in the United States．U．S．-based cycling activist John Forester suggests that helmet wearing could prevent 300 deaths a year in the U．S．out of a total of 1530 preventable deaths．Public Health Law Research reports that there is enough evidence to establish that bicycle helmet laws are an effective public health intervention（干涉）aimed to reduce the number ofhead-related deaths．Received opinion in some countries is that bicycle helmets are useful and that every cyclist should wear one．Professional bodies elsewhere have agreed, such as the Swiss Council for Accident Prevention．Mayer Hillman, a transport and road safety analyst from the UK, does not support the use of helmets, reasoning that they are of very limited value in the event of a collision with a car．He compares it to drawing conclusions on whether it is worthwhile to buy lottery tickets．Cyclists' representative groups complain that focus on helmets diverts attention from other issues which are much more important for improving bicycle safety, such as road danger reduction．The UK's largest cyclists' organization, the CTC, believes that the "overall health effects of compulsory helmets are negative．" The same report estimated that universal helmet use would save the life of one child aged 0 to 15 each year．Up to now, the debate is with no consensus, but an organization has published a review of studies in 2011, saying there is a good deal of evidence that those wearing a helmet are more likely to crash than bareheaded cyclists．Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.I've seen people do all kinds of things to relieve anxiety．Some have a glass of wine at dinner．Others shop or eat．But these are troubling times ?with hurricanes, tsunamis, war, and acts of terrorism —and if drinking, eating, or hitting the mall is your way offending off anxiety over the state of the world, you should know that the bill will eventually come due．And I don't mean just the credit card statement．Such coping methods do nothing to build your inner strength and resiliency （ability to recover quickly from difficult conditions）．Fortunately, there are ways to nurture （encourage the growth or development of）true inner peace when outer peace isn't an option．A few months ago, a woman I'll call Nancy attended one of my seminars．Nancy had been through hard times; Three years earlier her house had burned down; then her husband's National Guard unit shipped out to Iraq, and when he returned he was angry, depressed, and shocked．The couple got treatment yet grew further apart until, finally, her husband asked for a divorce．Nancy realizedshe had a choice: She could drown in self-pity or move forward．After seeing how the trauma （emotional shock）of war had torn up her husband, she wanted to make a difference with her life．So, at 35, she enrolled （officially register as amember）in nursing school．I think even Nancy was surprised by her resilience．But her leap into a life of greater meaning came from a simple change in outlook．She shifted her focus from her own problems to the difficulties of others．And that one change brought her clarity and peace．This time of global uncertainty challenges each of us to create our own sense of security．That doesn't mean you need to follow Nancy's lead into a nursing career, but keeping an eye on what really matters will help you maintain your balance when things around you seem to fall apart．81．List at least three common coping methods when people come down with anxiety．（No more than 7 words）________________________________82．How did Nancy's husband feel when he returned? （No more than 6 words）________________________________83．What choice did Nancy make after her husband asked for a divorce? （No more than 13 words）________________________________84．How should we relieve our anxiety according to the writer? （No more than 15 words）________________________________Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.请按如下要求完成一篇短文。

AThe Virgin Islands National Park is a tropical(热带的)paradise on the island of St. John,which covers more than half of the small island.It is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the north and the Caribbean Sea to the south,where the climate is warm all year.The island's white sand beaches and clear blue seas are considered to be among the most beautiful in the Caribbean,gaining reputation and popularity among visitors across the world.How the national park was formedLaurence Rockefeller was an American millionaire,businessman and conservationist.He visited St.John in the 1950s. He quickly fell in love with the island's clean,pure beauty.He first purchased a small resort there, Caneel Bay. He also purchased more than 2,000 hectares of the island and donated it to the government.That donation created the U.S.Virgin Islands National Park.It was officially opened as a national park on December 1,1956.How to get to the parkThe only way to reach the park is by boat.Some people arrive on their own sailboats.Others come in on large cruise ships.Visitors also arrive on water taxis from the island of St.Thomas.What to do at the parkFrom the tropical hills to the blue waters there are many things to do at the Virgin Islands National,Park.Visitors enjoy fishing,camping,sailing,scuba diving, snorkeling (浮潜),and bird watching.Of all of the park's beaches,Trunk Bay Beach is said to be the most striking.Below the clear blue water is a 200-meter snorkeling path. Hawksnest Beach is also a popular place for snorkeling.Near the shore are three small reefs of Elkhorn Coral.The Elkhorn Coral gets its name from its shape.The reef looks similar to the huge horns(角)of an animal called elk.It is a very rare kind of reef.Scientists say it is in danger of becoming extinct.The Virgin Islands National Park is often called America's paradise.It protects St. John's pristine nature,and preserves the record of human history in the Caribbean.Don't hesitate!

Instead, they will remain at the International Space Station (ISS) for the rest of the year and will return in February aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.their empty seats and blue spacesuits along with some old station equipment.After Nasa’s space shuttles were retired more than a decade ago, Nasa hired Boeing and SpaceX for orbital (轨道的) taxi service. Boeing ran into so many problems on its first test flight with no one onboard in 2019 that it had to repeat it. The 2022 do-over uncovered even more flaws and the repair bill topped $1.5bn.The Starliner finally blasted into space on 5 June from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station after unsuccessful launches on 6 May and 1 June. On the first launch attempt,a problem was found with a valve (阀门) on the second stage,or upper portion, of the rocket. On the second,a computer tripped an automatic hold just three minutes and 50 seconds from liftoff. That was later attributed to a single ground power supply fault within one of the launch control computers.Even after it successfully launched,helium leaks continued to trouble the spacecraft. As the Starliner approached the ISS, two leaks were detected but Nasa determined the spacecraft remained stable. What started as an eight-day mission dragged on for three months after the leaks and faulty thrusters raised safety concerns.However, Nasa and Boeing officials insisted that the astronauts were not trapped and that the technical difficulties did not threaten the mission. “We’ll come home when we’re ready,” Steve Stich, Nasa’s commercial crew program manager, said in the press conference in July.4. What does the underlined word “marred” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Underwent.B. Stimulated.C. Facilitated.D. Blocked.5. What do we know about Boeing’s spacecraft launches?A. They were filled with delays and setbacks.B. Starliner’s initial launch went smoothly.C. The 2019 manned spaceflight was a failureD. Reasons of the problems were still unidentified.6. Why didn’t the two astronauts come back to Earth on time?A. Because the project went over the original budget.B. Because they were both in serious health conditions.C. Because it was dangerous to take the Starliner then.D. Because Nasa officials failed to reach an agreement.7. What can be implied according to the last two paragraphs?A. The two astronauts would come back soon.B. Officials considered the situation within control.C. Nasa officials were pessimistic and pressed.D. The mission would be completed in 3 months.CActor Alicia Silverstone worried fans on social media recently. While on a trip to England, she posted a TikTok video of herself tasting a kind of poisonous berries she found along a sidewalk. Silverstone, who appeared in the 1995 movie Clueless, said she thought the fruit was a tomato. But when she bit into it and found that it had an unusual taste, she realized that it was not the common food.Plant expert, Jessica Damiano, recently wrote about poisonous plants that look like common foods for the Associated Press. She said the fruit that looked like a tomato appears to have been a Jerusalem cherry.Often sold as a houseplant, all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous.The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says the plant is not only harmful to humans but also to dogs, cats and horses.Eating large amounts can be deadly. Silverstone was lucky because she did not swallow the berries. She was also lucky because the berries were reddish orange, which meant they were ripe. While all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous, the plant’s unripe berries can be especially dangerous.They can cause problems with the central nervous and gastrointestinal (肠胃的) systems.The Jerusalem cherry is not the only toxic plant that looks like a safe one.The poisonous Carolina horsenettle fruit also looks like a tomato. It is also known as devil’s potato to add to the confusion.The Virginia creeper fruit also looks like blueberries, and it can be deadly if eaten.Wild parsnip has flowers like a carrot and leaves like parsley (欧芹). Simply touching it can cause a skin problem. Creeping buttercup looks like flat-leaf parsley. It can cause severe stomach pain,vomiting (呕吐) and heart problems. And Canadian moonseed can be confused with wild grape. However, its taste is so bitter that you would likely spit it out before swallowing it. This is a good thing because eating it can lead to death.If you think you have swallowed a toxic plant by mistake, contact a poison control center in your area or your doctor immediately. There is additional information on the website .Damiano advises using common sense with plants you find in the wild. If you are not completely sure that something is food, do not eat it.8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To present the author’s argument.B. To introduce the topic of the article.C. To raise the public’s attention of wild plants.D. To popularize the knowledge of medical science.9. Why was Silverstone thought to be fortunate?A. The berries she had a bite were ripe.B. She found the fruit she ate was a tomato.C. She had a good knowledge of wild plants.D. The amount of the berries she consumed was large.10. According to the description,what plants can be most harmful to people?A. Carolina horsenettle and wild parsnip.B Virginia creeper and creeping buttercup..C. Wild parsnip and Canadian moonseed.D. Canadian moonseed and Virginia creeper.11. What may be the suitable measure if someone mistakenly swallows a poisonous plant?A. Spitting it out as quickly as possible.B. Making an appointment with their doctor.C. Getting in touch with the local authority instantly.D. Searching for the relevant information on the Internet.DSuperhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life. When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures, computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren’t close to mastering:mind reading.We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals,desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own.If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds.In psychology, the ability to infer another’s mental state is referred to as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity develops at a very young age. How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear, though.One of the main challenges is context. For instance, if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply “it’s raining”, they can quickly conclude the answer is no. But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running, weather and human preferences.Besides, whether humans or AI, the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one’s own learning process. Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind.In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think.But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind. Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas. While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI,plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with AI.It is important to remember, though, that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots. It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines.Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But along the way thinking about other people and other agents, we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.12. According to the passage,which of the following contexts can AI understand well?A. When asked where an object is, a naughty kid points in the wrong direction.B. When a teacher asks for a boy’s homework,he answers “my dog ate it” .C. When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner, you reply “a sore throat” .D. When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health, the kid drinks it up.13. Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind?A. Humans’ theory of mind is far from perfect.B. Humans limit AI’s theory of mind to an extent.C. AI’s theory of mind development has been totally decoded.D. Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI.14. What is the author’s attitude toward truly self-aware machines?A. AmbiguousB. Conservative.C. Skeptical.D. Approving.15. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. AI’s Theory of Mind Will Define Our FutureB. AI with Its Own Theory of Mind Is ExpectedC. AI’s Theory of Mind — a Blessing or Suffering to HumansD. Theory of Mind Bridges the Gap Between Humans and AI第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
