HANDSTITCHED WORLDS: THE CARTOGRAPHY OF QUILTS
Quilts(床罩) are a narrative art; with themes that are political, spiritual, munal, or memorative, they are infused with history and memory, mapping out intimate stories and legacies through a handcrafted language of design. Handstitched Worlds: The Cartography of Quilts is an invitation to read quilts as maps, tracing the paths of individual histories that illuminate larger historic events and cultural trends.
Spanning the nineteenth to twentyfirst centuries, this insightful and engaging exhibition brings together 18 quilts from the collection of the American Folk Art Museum, New York, representing a range of materials, motifs, and techniques from traditional earlyAmerican quilts to more contemporary sculptural assemblages. The quilts in Handstitched Worlds show us how this toooften overlooked medium balances creativity with tradition, individuality with collective zeitgeist. Like a road map, these unique works offer a path to a deeper understanding of the American cultural fabric.

黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题

黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解BEST BODY FITNESSAbout usYou don’t want just a gym membership. You want a membership that means something. And that means you need support, expert help and a community.Best Body Fitness isn’t just a gym: it’s full-service fitness membership made for you. Here’s how it works:STEP ONE: Your assessmentWe begin with an assessment session. This is a chance for you to see what we do at Best Body. Our assessment plans are no-cost and no-risk. We’ll also make a training plan specifically for you.STEP TWO: Your trainingWhen you decide to become a Best Body member, we show you what to do, how to do it and why you are doing it. After a few sessions with an expert private trainer you will feel comfortable working out on your own.STEP THREE: Your membershipMembership works on a month-to-month basis. There are no sign-up fees and no cancellation fees. Start and stop whenever you want. And the best part? Our fees are the most competitive in the whole downtown area.STEP FOUR: Your communityAt Best Body Fitness, we see everyone as part of a big team. And when you work with a team, you can do great things. Join any of our specialized classes, led by expert trainers. Come to our nutrition classes. Participate in our regular social events. Everything is included in your fee.Finally, we want to share with you some reasons why our members say that they have chosen us over any other fitness centre in the city.It’s so EASYEasy to start, stop, cancel or refund a membership.Easy to access ― we’re open 24/7, we never close.Easy results ― our trainers and equipment give you success, fast.Come and visit us for a personal tour!1.What can one do in the second step?A.Have a full assessment.B.Work with a team.C.Learn from the private trainer.D.Make a training plan.2.If you become a member of this gym, you can ________.A.get refund when you cancel your membershipB.get expert training but you need to pay extra feeC.go to the gym only from 6:00 am to 10:00 pmD.go to the gym only from Monday to Saturday3.What do you think the above passage is?A.A story book.B.A science magazine.C.A TV show.D.An advertisement.When it came time for me to look at options for postgraduate study, I decided to go abroad, initially looking at options in both Australia and the United States.I decided on Australia finally after I spoke with friends, who had experience of studying at the University of Melbourne and living in the city. The people I knew described to me as a place where there were lots of people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds, and where everyone was open-minded and there were discussions happening everywhere. I’m happy to say that ended up being my experience as well.I joined Lion, one of Australasia’s largest food and drink companies, as part of their graduate program, which was a fantastic opportunity, because it gave me the opportunity to work in a variety of roles, and gain experience across a variety of functions. But the thing with Lion was that they were already a very established business; they already had their processes and structures in place.When the opportunity came for me to join Culture Amp, I realized it was an opportunity to see a business grow and be part of that evolution. It was just what I wanted. That comes with its own challenges, as new problems appear you might be solving them from the very beginning, rather than having a framework to fall back on, but it also means there’s room to learn and experiment. It made me realize where my interests lie. Here in Australia, there’s areally high tolerance for change in your careers. I think it’s really easy for graduates to fee1 like they have to “jump” into a role, and then that’s it, forever. But the truth is, your career is a marathon. You can expect to change courses along the way, and allow your interests to open new doors.4.Why did the author choose to study in Australia?A.Her friends lived there.B.She decided to work there.C.She liked the culture there.D.She wanted to meet new people.5.Which can best describe the author’s work in Lion?A.Facing various opportunities.B.Lacking challenges.C.Demanding new structures.D.Offering limited roles.6.What did the author want to get from Culture Amp?A.Learning how to do experiments.B.Having a framework to turn to.C.Dealing with problems in wise ways.D.Experiencing a company’s development.7.What is the author’s attitude towards changing jobs?A.Uncertain.B.Objective.C.Supportive.D.Contradictory.Like most nerds who read science fiction, I’ve kept wondering how society will greet true artificial intelligence, if and when it arrives. Will we panic? Ignore it and go about our daily lives? Hence, it’s been fascinating to watch the Twittersphere try to make sense of ChatGPT, a new cutting-edge A.I. chatbot opened for testing at the end of 2022. ChatGPT — which stands for “generative pre-trained transformer”— landed with a splash. In five days, more than a million people signed up to test it.In recent years, though a few A.I. tools have gotten good at doing narrow and well-defined tasks, like writing marketing copy, they still tend to be weak when taken outside their comfort zones. But ChatGPT feels different. Smarter. More flexible. It can write jokesand college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, and even seems good at answering the types of open-ended analytical questions which frequently appear on school assignments.The technology that powers ChatGPT isn’t, strictly speaking, new. It’s based on what the company calls “GPT-3.5,” an upgraded version of GPT-3 in 2020. While the existence of a highly capable linguistic superbrain might be old news to A.I. researchers, it’s the first time such a powerful tool has been made available to the general public through a free, easy-to-use web interface.Unlike Google, ChatGPT doesn’t crawl the web for information on current events, and its knowledge is restricted to things it learned before 2021. Since ChatGPT training data includes billions of examples of human opinion, representing every reasonable view, it’s also, in some sense, moderate by design. Without specific prompting, for example, it’s hard to coax (诱导) a strong opinion out of ChatGPT about political debates. Usually, you’ll get a fair summary of what each side believes.8.How did the public initially respond to ChatGPT?A.People worried about this new technology.B.Many people found it hard to understand ChatGPT.C.A number of people couldn’t wait to register for a try.D.Millions of people were ignorant of this new A.I. chatbot.9.What can we learn from paragraph 2?A.ChatGPT is a typical A.I. tool used for specified tasks.B.A.I. apps provide perfect answers to analytical questions.C.ChatGPT helps doctors with serious medical diagnoses.D.Homework might not be a problem for ChatGPT users.10.In which aspect is ChatGPT different from the GPT-3?A.People can gain access to it free of charge.B.Linguistic researchers speak highly of it.C.It is welcomed by A.I. researchers with enthusiasm.D.It is the first powerful tool open to the general public.11.What’s the text mainly about?A.The future of ChatGPT.B.The brilliance of ChatGPT.C.The development of ChatGPT.D.The arguments about ChatGPT.The world’s forests may hold more secrets than previously thought: a new global estimate of tree biodiversity suggests that there are about 9,200 tree species remaining undocumented. Most are likely in the tropics, according to the new research.The new research drew on the efforts of hundreds of contributors, who have categorized trees in two huge data sets: One, the Global Forest Biodiversity Initiative, records every species found in extensively documented forest plots worldwide. The other, TREECHANGE, puts together sightings of individual species. Together they suggest there are approximately 64,100 recorded tree species on the planet — up from previous estimates of around 60,000.The researchers reached their estimate of an additional 9,200 yet undocumented species on the basis of the number of rare ones already in the databases. Most unknown species are likely to be defined as rare, found in limited numbers in small geographical areas, says the quantitative forest ecologist Jingjing Liang. The team’s result is “a rather conservative estimate,” Liang says, “because scientists know less about the preponderance of uncommon trees in places such as the Amazon, where out-of-the-way spots could host pockets of unusual species found nowhere else.” “If we can focus the resources on those rain forests in the Amazon,” Liang adds, “then we would be able to estimate it with higher confidence.”Silman, a conservation biologist, who was not involved in the new study agrees that the study result is likely an underestimate. His and his colleagues’ local surveys suggest there are at least 3,000 and possibly more than 6,000 unknown tree species in the Amazon basin alone. Tree species often get grouped together based on appearance, he notes, so new genetic analysis techniques will likely lead to the discovery of even more biodiversity. Sliman wonders how many species will go extinct before scientists describe them. “How many are already known to native peoples in the Amazon — or were known to peoples or cultures who have themselves been made extinct through colonization, disease, or absorption? How many “species” already have dried samples sitting in a cabinet?” he says.Searching for the new species will inform not only conservation but the basic evolutionary science of how and why species diversify and die out, Silman says. “Just the fact that there are thousands of species of something as common as trees out there that are still left to be discovered,” he adds, “I find pretty inspirational.”12.What is the finding of the new research?A.About nine thousand new tree species have been identified.B.Thousands of tree species remain unknown to science.C.Maintaining tree diversity has become a global challenge.D.Human activities have led to the reduced number of trees.13.What can be learned about the research method?A.The researchers adopted quality method to analyze data.B.The researchers did extensive field study in out-of-the-way spots.C.Inferring from the existing dada is the main research method.D.Doing surveys and interviews is the main research method.14.What does the underlined word “preponderane” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A.majority B.evolution C.cultivation D.capability 15.According to Silman, one of the reasons for the underestimate of the tree species may be that ________.A.genetic analysis technique failed to produce accurate informationB.trees of similar sizes in the Amazon basin are grouped togetherC.too many rare trees were made into dried samples before being documentedD.the local peoples or the local cultures are not fully aware of the tree species.二、七选五When you feel down, you are expecting to receive support or comfort from your friends. Your friends feel the same way. However, it may be not easy to cheer up your friends when you can’t be by their side. 16Ask if there’s anything you can do to help. Different people prefer to be comforted in different ways. Ask if there’s anything specific you can do to help your friends. 17 While you’re talking on the phone, say something like, "What can I do to help? I’m always here if you need anything.18 This simple gesture can really brighten your friends’ day. If your friends are in need of comfort, send them frequent reminders that you’re thinking of them. Share something that reminded you of them. It will let your friends know that they’re still important in your life even if they’re far away.List why you think they’re special. 19 Send them a list of all the reasons why you think they’re amazing. Whether it be their kind and compassionate (富有同情心的) nature, their sense of style, or their ability to find the coolest music, tell them why you are so grateful to know them. After reading what you have listed, they will feel encouraged.Send them a gift. Surprise them with something special to make their day. Arrange for flowers to be delivered to their apartment or mail them one of their favorite albums. 20 A homemade gift, like a knitted (针织的) scarf or a piece of artwork, will lift their spirits all the same.A.Send a gift to them to celebrate their success.B.Thankfully, there are many ways you can help.C.Therefore, you can visit them to cheer them up.D.Text them to let them know they’re on your mind.E.You don’t have to go all out in terms of spending.F.If they’ve been down on themselves lately, they may need a reminder.G.The question alone will show you care, and they will appreciate your kind offer.三、完形填空Isabel Navarro has proved that hard work and a love for learning can help you achievethree obtained her General Equivalency Diploma (GED), which was extremely 32 for her as English is her second language.Navarro 33 Spring Valley Elementary School Principal Kappy Edwards. “I’m very proud of Isabel’s 34 and commitment to furthering her education, obtaining her GED and transforming into a new role within Spring Valley,” Edwards said. “This 35 shows her admirable devotion and serves as an inspiring example for others.”21.A.reserved B.abandoned C.presented D.set 22.A.joined B.respected C.admired D.become 23.A.struggled B.wanted C.declined D.managed 24.A.take advantage of B.make up of C.drop out ofD.lose sight of25.A.preparing B.providing C.accounting D.applying 26.A.withdrawing B.offering C.introducing D.finding 27.A.clean B.design C.watch D.use 28.A.decision B.impact C.choice D.effort 29.A.previously B.barely C.suddenly D.badly 30.A.serve B.accompany C.help D.attend 31.A.punctual B.dependent C.working D.suffering 32.A.essential B.tough C.unique D.urgent 33.A.impressed B.disturbed C.occupied D.benefited 34.A.caution B.kindness C.determination D.intelligence 35.A.discovery B.movement C.treasure D.achievement四、根据中英文提示填写单词quarrel.

More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy’s, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company’s co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women’s feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe’s outer part, called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothy’s shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “We’re not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think thatis a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.4.What does the underlined word knitted in the third paragraph mean?A.attached B.combinedC.fixed D.repaired5.Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy’s shoes?A.The design and color.B.The reasonable price.C.The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.D.The company’s advertisement.6.What is the purpose of the text?A.To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.B.To describe the process of making shoes.C.To advertise a new kind of shoes.D.To stress the importance of environmental protection.3.(8分)CThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers,he used two buckets(水桶).One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled. The old bucket felt very ashamed(惭愧的)because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏)along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!"And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I am not very useful,but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me ,at least.’’One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual,he said,"You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back,and I want you to look carefully along the path."Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.7.What was the old bucket ashamed of?A.Its past.B.Its aging.C.Its manner.D.Its leaking. 8.What does the underlined word "dilapidated" probably mean?A.Dirty.B.Dark.C.Worn out.D.Ordinary-looking.9.The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________.A.take pity on the old one B.laugh at the old oneC.show off its good look D.praise the gardener's kindness10.Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A.Because it was used to keep a balance.B.Because it stayed in its best condition.C.Because it had its own advantage.D.Because it was thought of as a treasure.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)4.(10分)二:七选五(每小题2分,满分10分)When the winter comes, millions of Americans realize they don’t feel as happy as usual, and may be depressed If you’re one of them, you may be suffering from “seasonal affective disorder” or SAD, whose symptoms include exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, body aches and pains, and a loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy. 11.Take extra Vitamin D.Researchers at the University of Georgia analyzed more than 100 articles that examined the link between Vitamin D and depression. They found that a lack of Vitamin D appeared to be a major factor in the development of SAD.12.13.Most researchers agree that the people who fall victim to SAD most often are particularlysensitive to the lack of light. Weather permitting, go for a walk. In your home or office, try sitting close to a window that faces south.Increase exercise.Although exercising may be about the last thing you want to do and would rather curl up with a book or watch a DVD, studies have shown that upping your exercise routine can counteract SAD.And experts advise exercising at least 20 minutes a day at least three times a week. 14.The benefits are also long lasting. The longer you do it, the more benefit you’ll get.Eat more fish.15.Studies have found that people who have low levels of two chemicals found in fish, EPA and DHA, are at increased risk for depression. Either eat more fish—at least three times a week—or take fish oil capsules to combat SAD.Although dark winter days got you down, don’t worry because nature is always waiting to help. Just enjoy the winter days and benefit from the nature!A.Take medicine.B. Get more light.C. If the weather permits, take a walk.D. Any type of exercise offers benefits.E. Fatty fish contain omega-3 fatty acids.F. To fight SAD, here are some easy, natural ways.G.

高二12月月考(英语)试题含答案

高二12月月考(英语)(考试总分:120 分)一、阅读理解(本题共计4小题,总分30分)1.(6分)AA famous magazine, Amusement Today, does a survey among parks lovers every year both in the US and overseas, based on which, “Top 5 List of the Best Amusement Parks in the World” has come out as follows:Disneyland, CaliforniaDisneyland is a theme park in Anaheim, California, the US. More than 515 million guests have traveled to this American landmark from around the world since the park first opened to guests on July 17, 1955. The park consists of many world-famous sections, such as Main Street, Adventure land, New Orleans Square, and so on.Magic Kingdom, Disney World, FloridaMagic Kingdom is a theme park within the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, near Orlando opened on October 1, 1971. It is the most famous theme park in Florida. The park’s design and attractions don’t make much difference from Disneyland Park in Anaheim.EPCOT, Disney World, FloridaEPCOT is the second theme park built at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida. The park opened on October 1, 1982, and was named EPCOT Center from 1982 to 1993. It was the largest Disney theme park in the world until 1998, when Disney’s Animal Kingdom opened.Disney-MGM Studios, FloridaMGM’s streets are the home for some great movie-themed attractions with a history of less than 30years. With the addition of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and the Rock and Roller Coaster, the park is now home to Disney World’s most thrilling rides.Universal Studios, FloridaGo behind the scenes, beyond the screen and jump right into the action of your favoritemovies at Universal Studios, the number one movie and TV theme park in the world. 1.What’s the purpose of the passage?A.To attract tourists to these theme parks.B.To introduce world’s best amusement parks.C.To increase the sales of Amusement Today.D.To compare attractions in different theme parks.2.Which of the following theme parks have similar attractions?A.Disneyland & Universal Studios.B.EPCOT & Disney-MGM Studios.C.Disneyland & Magic Kingdom.D.Magic Kingdom & Universal Studios.3.Which park has the longest history?A.Disneyland, California.B.Magic Kingdom, Disney World, Florida.C.EPCOT, Disney World, Florida.D.Disney-MGM Studios, Florida.2.(8分)BIf you thought pilots dimmed(调暗)the lights before takeoff to give you some shuteye, think again. Believe it or not, the dim lighting could actually help save your life in case of a plane emergency.The dimmed lights before taking off the runway and landing are a flight precaution used to help passengers’ eyes adjust quicker during an emergency escape. “Going from a brightly lit environment to one that’s completely dark would require some time for our eyes to focus and see the escape slide,” Alice Theriault, service director for Air Canada wrote in a press statement. “Since we need to have all the seconds on our side in the event of an emergency, dimming the lights is one of many steps we take to ensure the safety of our customers.”The phenomenon that your eyes see those strange speckles (小斑点) as your sight adjusts toa dark place after being in a light place is called dark adaptation. It normally takes our eyes about20 to 30 seconds to see best in a dark room. The brighter the lights, the longer it takes for our eyes to adjust, which is why dimming the plane lights could shorten your “dark adaptation” timesince you haven’t been sitting under fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯) all flight.Not only does dimming lights add valuable time to the escape process, but it reduces the tension on your eyes if you need to look outside, or see the emergency lighting along the passage. “It helps keep you in the right direction.” Patrick Smith, an airline pilot and author of Cockpit Confidential told The Telegraph. “It also makes it easier for flight attendants to assess any outside risks, such as fire or debris, that might affect an escape.” So next time a pilot dims the lights, just know it’s for your safety, even though it creates a gentle atmosphere for your takeoff into the sky. 4.The lights are turned down before takeoff to help passengers_______.A.escape in time of emergencyB.take a short breakC.create a comfortable atmosphereD.enjoy themselves5.Which of the following is true according to Paragragh 2 and 3?A.Dimming lights is required when accidents happen.B.Our eyes need some time to adapt to the change of light.C.Speckles are caused by the use of dimmed lights.D.It is required for pilots to turn off lights during the flight.6.What is the function of shortening “dark adaptation” time?A.Slowing down the landing.B.Adjusting the plane lights.C.Keeping passengers calm.D.Helping the crew judge outside risks.7.What is the text mainly about?A.A tip to make air travel safer.B.An emergency event happening on a plane.C.An explanation of an airline safety measure.D.A warning message from the pilot.3.(8分)CHundreds of villagers took matters into their own hands by digging miles of trenches(沟壕)to install their own cables(电缆). The tiny village in Michaelston-y-Fedw, with a populationof 300, clubbed together after being unable to download films, stream music or connect to online banking. Farmers, teachers and even the village pub owners put in thousands of hours of volunteering to dig miles of trenches and now have super fast broadband(宽带).The project cost around £250,000 with villagers paying£150,000 of their own money to secure their super fast connection speed. They were also able to obtain£100,000 from EU funding and the Welsh Government Access Broadband Cymru scheme.The idea was produced in the local pub when villagers were complaining about their Wi-Fi connections. Ben Longman, owner of the Cefn Mably Arms, said, “We were in the pub and we were all complaining about how bad the Wi-Fi was. I had just paid for high speed broadband and realized it would not work.”One of the organizers, Carina Dunk, 61, said it was fantastic what the village had achieved. She said, “It used to take a few days to download a film; now it takes less than a minute. Communities have tended to be more distant and separated but not here anymore. Sometimes we have to take a step back and achieve something.”A year after the project, most of the 300 villagers are now united in a 1,000mps broadband connection.However, Richard Raybould, 59, is still waiting for his house to be connected on the edge of the village and said he cannot wait. He said, “It is amazing what skills people in the community have. There are experts and farmers who dig trenches. I have met at least 30 people who I had never spoken to before.”8.What can we learn about the villagers?A.They had no access to the Internet.B.They usually didn’t have much free time.C.They didn’t know how to use the Internet correctly.D.They considered their Internet connection disappointing.9.To have their own cables, the villagers had to_______.A.partly cover the costB.employ workers to dig trenchesC.donate £100,000 to EU fundingD.get the local government’s permission10.What does the author intend to do by mentioning Carina Dunk’s words?A.Explain the cause of the project.B.Explain the process of the project.C.Show the benefits from the project.D.Show the villagers’ attitudes toward the project.11.What would be the best title for the text?A.Villagers obtain access to the InternetB.Villagers dream of super fast broadbandC.Villagers volunteer to install super fast broadbandD.Villagers are suffering from bad Wi-Fi connections4.(8分)DWhy are photos and videos of cats high-fiving suddenly popping up on social media?Ask Jackson Galaxy, who launched Cat Pawsitive last year, a program that encourages animal shelters to teach cats how to do tricks to make them more attractive for adoption.The idea is simple. A kitty that can sit on command or give a high five shows that it can listen to instructions and connect with others. A high five can make a shy cat open up, Galaxy said.“Big life changes can lead to cats losing their confidence, and we help those cats to feel more confident and to feel safe interacting with new people.” Christie Rogero, program manager for Cat Pawsitive, said.And Stephen Holdeman, training manager at the KC Pet Project, added: “All we need to train a cat to do tricks is the right amount of patience, timing and motivation.” He uses a technique called “operant conditioning (操作性条件反射)”, which associates a cat’s action with getting a reward such as a favorite food or treat.He also uses a clicker—a training device that makes a clicking noise. “In the initial stage, we get the cat used to the idea that when it hears the sound of the clicker, one of its favorite treats appears. After we have bridged these two ideas together we can use the clicker to reinforce different actions the cat does to let it know that if it repeats the action, it will get a treat.”After several repetitions, the cat starts to link everything together. Now all you need to do is let your extended hand be the target, and we’ve got a high five.12.According to the text, how can learning tricks benefit cats at animal shelters?A.It is a good way for shelters to raise money.B.It allows them to pick up skills to stay safe.C.It helps them interact more with each other.D.It helps them build confidence and get adopted.13.According to the text, what should be done from the start to train cats to learn tricks? A.Teaching them different actions.B.Teaching them how to use a clicker.C.Making them patient enough to repeat actions.D.Helping them connect the sound of a clicker with treats.14.What does the underlined word “reinforce” in paragraph 6 probably mean?A.record B.strengthenC.ignore D.reward15.What is the main purpose of the article?A.To explain how to train cats to perform tricks.B.To show how cats are treated at animal shelters.C.To describe the popularity of cats on social media.D.To inform us of a program that trains cats to do tricks.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的A-G选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

四川省成都市成华区某校2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题

四川省成都市成华区某校2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择When you stand in the starlight under the Milky Way, the night sky is one of the most incredible wonders many of us have not seen, which is under threat due to the constant march of human progress and consequent light pollution. Below are some of my favorite dark sky destinations around the world.The Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve, New ZealandThe Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve is one of the best places in the country to view the night sky. Comprised of Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park and the Mackenzie Basin of Aotearoa New Zealand’s South Island, the Dark Sky Reserve was certified in 2012 to continue protecting the dark skies in the area.Stargazing (天体观察) enthusiasts should plan a visit to Mt John Observatory, tours of which must be booked in advance.The Wild Atlantic Way, IrelandMost visitors go to Ireland’s western Wild Atlantic Way to explore beyond hot spots like Dublin and Cork, but the route is also fast becoming a great region for stargazing, thanks to the efforts of local communities along the Way.If planning a trip, keep in mind that Ireland does have wet months where overcast skies are more likely to affect your stargazing prospects.Wadi Rum, JordanWadi Rum is also sometimes called “The Valley of the Moon”, though you’re more likely to compare it to Mars if you visit it. Famous for its otherworldly landscapes in movies like Prometheus, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and The Martian, Wadi Rum’s towering red rock formations are extremely interesting to explore by day, and offer protection from any distant light pollution once the sun sets.Stargazing in Wadi Rum is a breathtaking experience and reminds us how our ancestors have experienced the night sky for thousands of years.1.What might be a disadvantage of stargazing in Ireland?A.Conservation efforts.B.Heavy tourism.C.Customer service.D.Local climate.2.What sets Wadi Rum apart from the other dark sky destinations?A.Unusual landscapes.B.Ancestors’ experiences.C.Its geographical location.D.Its local film studios.3.What is the purpose of the text?A.To compare things.B.To inform readers.C.To warn readers.D.To announce something.Lee hyun-seok grew up in South Korea addicted to Japanese manga (漫画) series such as “Dragon Ball” and “Slam Dunk”. As soon as he could, he migrated to Tokyo to build a successful career as a manga artist and editor. Then in the early 2000s came “webtoons” (网络漫画), a South Korean cartoon innovation optimized for smartphones. Mr. Lee was at first unimpressed. Compared with manga’s inventive graphic styles and profound plots, he found webtoons just the opposite.Yet Japanese manga is being eclipsed (黯然失色) by Korean webtoons. Last year the manga print market shrank by 2.3% to ¥265bn ($1.9bn). The size of the global webtoons market was meanwhile valued at $3.7bn. Manga is going digital slowly, in part because it is still designed for print, so awkward to read on smartphones. Seeing which way the wind was blowing, Mr. Lee abandoned manga for the webtoon industry in 2014.Though webtoons such as “Itaewon Class” and “Solo Levelling” have become popular among Japanese consumers, most Japanese publishers have stuck stubbornly to manga. “The Japanese industry is very conservative,” sighs Mr. Lee. The manga industry’s business model, in which stories are first published in weekly magazines and then in books, has hardly changed since the 1960s. Webtoons have grown so fast, in part because they can be read more easily. Other recent South Korean exports, such as the Netflix sensation “Squid Game” and BTS, a boy band, have taken the world by storm thanks to the same combination of innovation and smart marketing behind webtoons.Some are concerned about the future. Japan’s manga fans are, like all its population, aging. The average reader of the Weekly Shonen Magazine, a manga for children launched in 1989, is now over 30. “Manga could end up as old people’s culture,” warns Mr Lee. “Children these days are viewing through webtoons on their smartphones. Why not make something that suits their taste?”4.What did Mr Lee think of “webtoons” in the early 2000s?A.He considered it as inventive.B.He considered it as attractive.C.He considered it as original.D.He considered it as shallow.5.Why does the author mention numbers in paragraphs 2 ?A.To confirm the advantages of smartphones.B.To share the popularity of Japanese manga.C.To introduce the influence of webtoons industry on Japanese manga.D.To compare Mr. Lee’s career as an artist and an editor.6.What can we learn from Japanese manga?A.Japanese manga can be read more easily.B.Since the 1960s, the manga has grown so fast.C.The manga industry is unwilling to transform.D.“Squid Game” was adopted from Japanese manga.7.What is Mr. Lee’s attitude towards manga’s future?A.Worried.B.Aggressive.C.Confident.D.Annoyed.As athletes get stronger and faster, the pace of play continues to increase. The burden of making sure games are played according to the rules and that the officiating (裁判) is accurate is now being taken out of human hands and falling more and more into the lap of technology. It’s called the video replay.The National Football League is expanding its replay system this upcoming season to include pass interference (传球干扰). Major League Baseball now relies on it for safe-or-out and home run calls. If you’ve been watching the FIFA World Cup, you may have noticed that the Video Assistant Referee (V AR) played a key role in almost every game. And in the Kentucky Derby, a horse was disqualified for knocking another horse. No one knew why until a video replay confirmed the call and controversy was avoided.However, many purists—those who want people to follow rules carefully and do things in the traditional way—especially in soccer, argue it’s not the way the game was invented, and that the video replay is tainting the sport. But don’t you want to see the proper application of the rules throughout the games? I know I do. Yes, it can slow the game down, but I feel it is worth it. If technological advancements allow fans watching from home to spot mistakes instantly, those same views need to be available to the officiating crews. Another exampleoccurred in the most recent National Football Conference (NFC) Championship Game between the Los Angeles Rams and the New Orleans Saints. When obvious pass interference was committed by the Los Angeles Rams player Nickell Robey-Coleman, with just 109 seconds to play, no flag was raised on the field. It weakened the New Orleans Saints spirits. The Los Angeles Rams won a 26-23 overtime victory. The no-call deeply angered the public. The video replay showed the referees had just missed one of the most apparent pass interference calls.There are no easy answers regarding replay technology and whether it is a curse (魔咒). But for me, keeping the officiating honest and on task is the right step in limiting controversy. 8.What trend in sports can be observed in paragraph 2?A.The video replay has been widely used.B.League games have become competitive.C.Rules of professional games are becoming stricter.D.People are showing more interest in sports than before.9.What does the underlined word “tainting” in paragraph 3 mean?A.Tricking.B.Promoting.C.Damaging.D.Restoring. 10.What might the New Orleans Saints think of the referees in the NFC Championship Game?A.They relied a lot on the video replay.B.They cared too much about details.C.They were definitely stressed out.D.They were terribly disqualified.11.What would be the best title for the text?A.Video replays: high-end technology in sportsB.Is technology like V AR a blessing in sports?C.Officiating: a duty that requires honestyD.What do qualified referees really mean?One key element of human language is semantics (语义). Scientists had long thought that unlike our words, animal vocalizations (发声) were involuntary, renecting the emotional state of the animal without conveying any other information. But over the last four decades, numerous studies have shown that various animals have distinct calls with specific meanings.Many bird species use different alarm calls. Japanese tits, which nest in tree holes, have one call that causes their baby birds to get down to avoid being pulled out of the nest by crows, and another call for tree snakes that sends them jumping out of the nest entirely. Siberian jays vary their calls depending on whether an enemy is seen looking for food or actively attacking — and each call gets a different response from other nearby birds.Two recent studies suggest that the order of some birds’ vocalizations may impact their meaning. Though the idea is still controversial, this could represent a basic form of the rules governing the order and combination of words and elements in human language known as syntax (句法), as illustrated by the classic “dog bites man” vs. “man bites dog” example.Even if some birds share basic aspects of human language, we still know very little about what’s actually going on in their minds. Most animal communication research has focused on describing signals and behavior, which on the surface can look a lot like human behavior. Determining if the underlying cognitive (认知的) processes driving the behavior are also similar is much more challenging, as at the heart of this question is intentionality: Are animals merely reacting to their environment, or do they intend to convey information to one another?12.What was scientists’ long-held belief about animal vocalizations?A.They conveyed no emotion.B.They were semantically related.C.They varied greatly with species.D.They expressed no intended meaning. 13.How does the author develop paragraph 2?A.By listing data.B.By giving examples.C.By providing definition.D.By making comparisons.14.What does the underlined word ”this” in paragraph 3 refer to?A.What birds’ vocalizations mean.B.How rules govern human language.C.What the two recent studies indicate.D.How bird’s vocalizations are combined. 15.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A.Shared aspects of human and birds’ languages.B.Focus of most animal communication research.C.Underlying, cognitive processes of birds’ vocalizations.D.Insufficient knowledge about birds’ communication intentionality.Revenge bedtime procrastination (报复性睡眠拖延症) refers to the decision to delaysleep in response to stress or a lack of free time earlier in the day. The addition of the word “revenge”, by the Chinese, to the concept of bedtime procrastination became popular on social media. 16Both language versions reflect frustration tied to long, stressful work hours that left little time for personal enjoyment.People who engage in bedtime procrastination know and generally want to receive enough sleep. 17 This is known as an intention-behavior gap.Bedtime procrastination can cause sleep deprivation (缺乏). 18 Not getting enough sleep affects thinking, memory, and decision-making. Sleep deprivation also raises the risk of daytime sleepiness, which can harm productivity and academic achievement while increasing the risks of sleeping driving.19 It causes difficulties in regulating emotions. It’s also been connected to mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety. It is also discovered that sleep deprivation worsens physical health, making people more easily to suffer from illnesses. Ongoing sleep loss consequences can build up over time. Therefore, it contributes to significant long-term health problems.The best solution for bedtime procrastination is creating good sleep patterns and a good sleeping environment. 20A.But they fail to actually do so.B.The Chinese are noted for working long hours.C.A lack of sleep is tied to mental and physical health.D.But remember that it will take more than one night to truly get into good sleep habits.E.We struggle to stay productive during the day to make up for the loss.F.Without enough hours of sleep, the mind and body can’t properly recharge.G.The English term “revenge bedtime procrastination” appeared from a translation of this expression.二、完形填空received.While having a colonoscopy (结肠镜检查) without sedation (镇静剂) I was working hard to keep myself 23 by using techniques learned to 24 panic attacks. As the camera 25 the twists and turns of my bowel, the specialist 26 I was quietly humming a tune to myself.

According to a study whichwas published on March 16 in the journal PLOS Genetics, people who live in a placewith warm and moist conditions commonly have wider noses while those that live in cold and dry locations have narrower noses.Mark Shriver, a geneticist and anthropologist(人类学家)at Pennsylvania State University, together with his team of international researchers from the United States,Ireland and Belgium, measured and compared noses across populations using 3D facial imaging.The study is not the first one to identify the relationship between nose shape and air temperature and moisture content. However, it is the first one to use nose measurement from actual people.“Many people have tested the question with measurements of the skull, but no one had done measurements on live people, " said lead author Mark Shriver from Pennsylvania State University.As reported by Science Recorder, all in all, faces of 476 from four geographical locations —West Africa, East Asia, South Asia and Northern Europe were used in the study. However, their ancestry genetic measurements were also taken into consideration.The researchers concluded that while the differences in nose shape were indeed inluenced by genetie drift, which refers to the change in frequency of certain genes due to deaths and movement of people across borders,natural selection also played its role.Narrower nasalpassages assist in increasing the moisture content of air and warm it.Since peopl e with narrower ones adapted better,they survived more and therefore produced more offspring. As such,there is a gradual decrease in people with wider nose in the area.24.People in the South of China generally tend to________.A.have wider noseB.have narrower noseC.be more easygoingD.enjoy dry and cold weather25.How did Marker's researchers do their research?A.By studying the skulls.B.By doing research online.C.By measuring noses of the people.D.By offering more moisture for people26.Which of the following can influence nose shapes?A.Body height.B.Local tradition.C.Local climateD.Body weight.27.What are people with narrow nose able to do?A.Raise more of their children.B.Adapt to cold weather better.C.Survive in hot weather conditionsD.Keep their ancestry from their parents.8.(8分) CKannisto and her six sons visited a local barber' s shop to have their hair cut and donatedit to an organization that provides hair replaeements for kids with medically related hair loss.Kannisto has a l0-year-old son, Andre, 8-year-old twin sons, 5-year old triplets and a 2-year-old daughter.Kannisto said the motivation behind the haircuts was personal for the whole family.“Three years ago, my friend lost her son to cancer, " she said.“He was a twin and very close in age to my twins. On the first anniversary of his passing. my three oldest boys donated theirhair in his memory. Since their donation two years ago, our lives have continued to be touched by cancer. It's everywhere. My boys want to help, and donating their hair is how they do it.”Her three oldest sons participated in donating for the first time in 2015.The donation afew days ago marked the first time her triplets were able to contribute. Kannisto said they waited until everyone’s hair reached the minimum length for donations before they all got their haircuts. It took quite some time for everyone to be ready.Andre grew his hair out for a year, the twins grew their hair for almost two years and the triplets grew their hair for five years. They're already planning their next donation, too, since their little sister wants to participate.Her hair wasn't long enough to donate this time.She said her sons had been teased a lot for their long hair since they decided to grow it outand donate it. They explain the process of hair donation to their peers, but some of them just don't get it. Luckily, her sons have developed “a thick skin” and ignore the criticism,knowing they 're helping others in need.Kannisto is “so proud” of her boys and thinks that their mission is“amazing.”28. What does the underlined word “triplets”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Three sons.B.Many relatives.C. Kids with hair loss.D. Children with caneer.29.What is the reason for Kannisto's sons donating their hair?A.Both fame and wealth.B. Their personal cure to cancer.C. Their memory of a lost friend.D. Modeling themselves on their parents.30.Why did the Kannistos have to wait before the donation?A. The little sister's hair was too short.B. Every child's hair grows at different rates.C. It's long before somebody wants their hair.D. They must find a right barber to have their hair cut.31. What is Kannisto's children's attitude towards others'tease?A. Inspired.B. Annoyed.C. Desperate.D. Indifferent.9.(8分)DWhether a single parent or otherwise, bringing up a child can be quite a discouraging experience as well as being a lot of fun. As a parent myself, I wanted my child to have the lifeI never had, so I enrolled my daughter in all types of activities such as dancing, piano lessons,theatre groups and sports acti vities. I had her privately tutored for maths and even looked into private schooling. While all of this is good for developing a child's confidence, it's no guarantee that the child will grow to fit your expectations in later life.In some cases a child may inwardly resent(憎恶)the pressure of being involved in so many things all at once, and become bored over a period of time. One of the best ways toreally encourage your child to do well in life is to be the example for them. Children usually follow in the footsteps of their parents or at least one of them.This is how family businesses are handed down through generations.Believe it or not, the parent is the greatest mentor(导师)and influence in the life of a child. It's interesting to note that they judge their own measure by that of their parents even if they don't get along with them, it takes place unconsciouslyYoung minds will follow their mentors such as parents and teachers. So it's not surprising that if you sign yourself into adult education classes.chances are your child will be keen to follow you even if it' s later in their life.Leading by example is the best way to educatechildren of all ages.It's not difficult when children get to know your movements.Children will almost always judge themselves on what their parents do. The strongest influences are in and around what you do in the home and even outside of it, so make sure your ticking all the right boxes yourself and it's a win situation.32 According to the text, what the author had done for her daughter ________.A. proved to be of little valueB. resulted in great suecessC. greatly influenced her later lifeD. cost the author too much money33. How are some family businesses handed down from parents to children?A. Children are interested in the businesses.B. Children follow in the parents'footsteps.C. Parents allow the children to run the businesses.D. Children have received enough education.34. How should we educate our children?A.Read to them successful storiesB. Set good examples to them.C. Find them qualified mentorsD. Let them gain different experienees35. Why should parents behave themselves well?A. Children hate too much pressures on them.B. Children can never believe themselves easily.C. Children know little about their movements.D.Children will follow their examples.三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)10.(10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项。

Her family was very poor. She decided to help her family even when she was very young, so she learned to use a gun, and began hunting (打猎) animals for food. She could shoot them without losing the important parts of the meat.Soon her shooting ability became well known. When she was sixteen, she was invited to a competition with a famous marksman (神枪手), Frank Butler. Annie surprised everyone by winning the competition. Later that year she and Frank married.In 1882, Annie Oakley and Frank Butler started putting on shows together. Frank Butler was the star of the show and she was his assistant. The famous Native American leader, Sitting Bull, thought so highly of her shooting ability that he called her “Little Sure Shot”. Later Annie Oakley became the star of the show and Frank Butler was her assistant. Posters (海报) for the show called her the “Champion Markswoman”.During World War One, Annie Oakley wanted to train a group of women volunteers for the army, but the United States did not accept it. She gave American soldiers shooting lessons, and traveled across the country visiting many training camps. She gave shooting performances and raised money to support the American soldiers.Annie Oakley died on November 3, 1926.Eighteen days later, Frank Butler died too.9.According to the passage, Annie Oakley ______.A.lived a hard life as a childB.often went hunting with her familyC.joined the army during World War OneD.trained women soldiers during the war10.Which of the following shows best that Annie was skilled at shooting?A.She put on shows as her husband’s assistant.B.She raised money to support the American soldiers.C.She offered to help the army by training women to be soldiers.D.She could shoot animals without harming the important parts of the meat.11.Which of the following is in the RIGHT order about Annie?a.She took part in a shooting competition.b.She gave shooting demonstrations and raised money.c.She hunted animals for food.d.She put on shows with Frank Butler.e.She was called the "Champion Markswoman".f.She married Frank Butler.A.a, c, d, f, b, e B.a, c, b, e, f, dC.c, a, d, f, e, b D.c, a, f, d, e, b12.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Annie Oakley—Markswomen.B.Frank Butler—Champion Marksman.C.A Couple of Marksmen.D.Trained Woman Soldier.4.(6分)DIf English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater, the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt asecond language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference."Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language," said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link betweenbilingualism and maths skills."Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的), "he said."You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34.Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better."Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world," explained the scientists.13.The main subject talked about in this passage is ______ .A.science on learning a second languageB.man’s ability of learning a second languageC.1anguage can help brain powerD.1anguage learning and maths study14.In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to ______ .A.say language is also a kind of physical laborB.prove that one needs more practice when he(she) is learning a languageC.to show the importance of using the language when you learn the languageD.make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well15.The underlined word “bilingual” probably means ______ .A.a researcher on language learningB.a person who is good at learning foreign languagesC.a person who can speak two languagesD.an active language learner二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(10分)第二节七选五(共5小题,每题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

So he pulled up in front her Mercedes and got out.Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt.He said, “I am here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for ing to her aid.Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened, had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were many people who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.56. This story most probably took place____.A.in a garage B.on a highway C.in a busy street D.near a gas station57. When the man approached the old lady, the first thing he did was to____.A.ask what was wrong with her car B.get the old lady out of her carC.change her tire as soon as possible D.make her know he wanted to help her58.

It can be inferred from the last paragraph that____.A.the man was happy after helping the old lady B.the man received a lot of money from the old ladyC.the man made the old lady feel cold and depressedD.the man felt extremely frustrated all the way homeBSure it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because in general it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life."But really there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do learning bursts right open " says Evelyn Vuko a longtime teacher who writes an education column(专栏) called "Teacher Says" for the Washington Post newspaper.In fact, kids, who get along with their teachers not only learn more but they're more fortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do yourbest on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher he or she can be someone to turn to with problems such as problems with learning or school life such as bullying.As a kid in a primary or middle school you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're like a sponge (海绵) able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that in most cases is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember teachers are people too and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place-to teach!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher and if things aren't going well they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.61. In the passage the author mainly talks about _______.A. how to get along well with othersB. the importance of a good relation with teachersC. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersD. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant62. "Learning bursts right open" in the third paragraph really means _______.A. learning bees easier for you at onceB. you find an opening to learningC. there'll be more problems with learningD. there'll be no problems at all with learning63. According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?A. If you get on well with your teachers you must have a good result in examsB. The more questions you ask the higher marks you will get.C. If you have a good relationship with your teacher you can turn to him when in trouble.D. Many kids can do well without a good relationship with teachers.64. Which of the ments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?A. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn't like to accept their teaching.B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.C. Though few there are still some students who can learn even if they don't like the teacher.D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.COne evening at a busy Broadway crossroad, I noticed a sister struggling to keep her little kid under control while she talked on the pay phone. She wanted him to stay still next to her, but he wanted to run and play at the curb(路边), close to rushing buses and taxis. One could sense the woman’s frustration (挫败), that she was pulled in too many directions: She was angry at the person on the telephone and shouting at the y ounger that she would “snap(打断)his leg” if he moved again. As I waited for the traffic light to change, the child began to plain and struggle to free himself from the woman’s grip. She dropped the phone, seized the neck of his tiny T-shirt and gave him a back-hand blow across the face that I know made his little head spin.The light changed, and passersby continued on their way. But I stood there, fixed to the pavement.I knew this extremely upset woman would follow through on her threat of violence to the child. Before, I had wanted to approach her and offer to watch the youngster while she dealt with the distressing situation on the phone. Now I wanted to fort the little boy. I also wanted to speak to the sister to calm her and to caution her, as I wish someone had cautioned me when I was passing my pain on to my daughter and causing her emotional suffering. But I was chicken(胆小鬼). I thought, she may think I’m out of line, or I may be her next target.Often I’ve thought about that child and the many others abused(虐待,辱骂)by adults. I wonder how they will internalize (使……藏在心底) their pain, if it will crush their spirits. Will this little boy grow up to be an abusive man? Will he be gloomy and withdrawn? Will he find it hard to municate with women, with other men? Or will he survive and be sensitive, caring and determined not to continue the cycle?There is too much cruelty in the world, too much cruelty between people. I tremble at the increasing verbal bitterness and violence among Black girls, and among young mothers trying to discipline their children. This behavior isn’t class- or age- related: I hear sharp words from Black women from all walks of life who are overworked and stressed out and have grown impatient. At times I, too, bee short with others, or, like the sister on the phone, strike out at(抨击)those closest to me.Often we’re tired because we’ve made the wrong choices. Young girls who still need mothering are loaded with children. We, sisters easily get hurt and annoyed when we don’t promise(妥协)with our own sense of self. Our personal fulfillment requires knowing what is best for us, setting oar boundaries and keeping them undamaged. We will always be asked to do more than we are fortabledoing. When we know our boundaries, we can decline fortably. People — and we ourselves — will act in ways we don’t like. But they, like us,are still worthy of love.Whatever irritates (激怒) us about a person should be examined. Is the person reflecting behavior in us that needs to be changed? Often, when I find people irritating, I find they mirror something about me that I need to correct.What we people of African root must do to thrive begins with love, sensitivity and our ability to work together. We Black women have these spiritual resources in abundance(充裕). Now we must draw on them to create a peaceful place — for ourselves, our children, our men.65. The scene the author described in the passage probably happened .A. in a phone boothB. on the streetC. near a taxi standD. at a bus stop66. We can learn from the passage the mother of the little kid must be .A. confused and quick-mindedB. cruel and talkativeC. disappointed and hot-temperedD. considerate and sensitive67. In paragraph 2, by saying “She may think I am out of line”, th e author meant the womanmight say . .A. “Walk away. It’s none of your business.”B. “You can watch and fort my kid.”C. “You’re not standing in the queue.”D. “You are walking in the wrong direction.”68. The wrong choices the author mentions in Paragraph 5 include .a. We sisters refuse to marry young.b. We aren’t satisfied with ourselves.c. We have our boundaries damaged. d. We decline others’ requests for help.A. a, bB. c, dC. a, dD. b, c69. According to the author, when we find a person irritating, we should .A. return to tenderness and toleranceB. avoid the hard words and sharp tonesC. reflect on our behavior that needs correctingD. examine if anything is wrong with him70. The tone of the last paragraph is .A. criticalB. optimisticC. pessimisticD. objective第II 卷(35分)第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章表格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
