陕西省延安中学2023-2024学年高一下学期第二次月考英语试卷

陕西省延安中学2023-2024学年高一下学期第二次月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Four Places to Listen to Free Music OnlinePandoraPandora is a popular Internet radio service that lets users create personalized stations and listen to music. To use Pandora, you will have to create an account using your email address and a password. As you find music you like, you can save songs to your collection. However, you can’t download any specific tracks to your computer or phone.LiveOneOn LiveOne, you’ll mostly find big artists, bands and songs along with interviews and news. While you won’t be able to stream all songs on demand for free due to licensing restrictions (限制), you will be able to create a station of similar tracks/artists from nearly any song. There’s a tab (标签) named “My Library” where you can save and share your favourite music.iHeartRadioiHeartRadio is a great website or app for listening to live radio stations. You can find local stations or check out stations from around the country. You won’t have to create an account to begin listening on iHeartRadio. but you can make one for free to save stations and playlists. Whether you decide to create an account or not. you won’t be able to download music from iHeartRadio.SpotifyIf you’re looking for free music online, you’ve most likely come across Spotify already. This resource is great for streaming popular hits while discovering new favourites. You can keep track of what you’ve recently played, and “favourite” songs. In addition to music. Spotify offers playlists of its most-played songs and information on local upcoming concerts.1．Which is a must before using Pandora?A．Saving some songs.B．Creating an account.C．Calling other users.D．Sending a private email.2．What can you do on “My Library” of LiveOne?A．Download popular songs.B．Make new friends online.C．Share your favourite music.D．Discover radio stations.3．What is special about Spotify?A．It offers news on local upcoming concerts.B．It requires no membership card.C．It allows users to download music for free.D．It features a station of similar artists.Binge-watching (刷剧) is when a person watches more than one episode of a show in a row. With developments in the speed and connectivity of the Internet, increases in technology and the rise of on-demand entertainment companies, people can now have their favorite shows stream (流播) directly to their television at their convenience.This behavior is nothing new. In fact, binge-watching has been officially listed in dictionaries since 2015. The entertainment companies recognize this behavior and many take steps to encourage it. Often, instead of releasing each episode on a week-by-week basis, an entire series will become available concurrently. Once the episode finishes, many platforms will display pop-ups with “you might like” suggestions, or will automatically play the next episode.However, recent research suggests that out of the more than half of British adults who watch more than one episode of a show back-to-back (一集接一集地), almost a third have admitted missing sleep or becoming tired as a result; and 25% have neglected their household chores (家务活). Next we’ll be missing work!Bingeing has other connections — binge eating, binge drinking and binge smoking. All of them are often associated with a lack of control and a possible route to addiction. Lindsey Fussell, consumer group director, said, “The days of waiting a week for the next episode are largely gone, with people finding it hard to resist (抗拒) watching multiple episodes around the house or on the move.” If people find binge-watching hard to resist, are we witnessing the birth of a new type of addiction?The countless number of information and entertainment that television and online media can bring us is, many would say, a good thing. However, when the activity begins to bleed into other areas, causing us to stop functioning, then it becomes a problem. So, what’s the answer? Moderation! Neither a tiny amount, nor too much. After all, as the old proverb says, “A little ofwhat you fancy does you good.”4．How did the writer develop the first paragraph?A．By giving a definition.B．By telling a story.C．By listing some examples.D．By analyzing the cause and effect. 5．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “concurrently” in Paragraph2?A．For convenience.B．At the same time.C．In detail.D．Free of charge.6．What Lindsey said in Paragraph 4 implies that ______.A．people can’t control their feelings B．people can’t resist the temptation of Bingeing C．people have no patience to do work D．people are addicted to waiting for a new episode7．What advice did the writer give at last?A．To keep online media from stopping functioning.B．To enjoy entertainment as much as possible.C．To learn life lessons from the episodes.D．To watch episodes in a moderate way.This week, Google researchers published a paper describing results from an AI tool built to create music. The tool, called MusicLM, is not the first AI music tool to be launched. But the examples Google provided demonstrate musical creative ability based on a limited set of descriptive words.Several different music examples produced by MusicLM were published online. Some of the generated music came from just one-or two-word descriptions, such as “jazz”, “rock” or “techno (高科技舞曲)”. The tool also created other examples from more detailed descriptions containing whole sentences.In one example, Google researchers included these instructions to MusicLM, “It is a soundtrack of a game. It is fast-paced and upbeat, with a catchy electric guitar riff (反复乐节). The music is repetitive and easy to remember, but with unexpected sounds ...” In the resulting recording, the music seemed to keep very close to the description. The team said the more detailed the description was, the better the system could attempt to produce it.The MusicLM model operates similarly to the machine-learning systems used by ChatGPT. ChatGPT and MusicLM both require powerful computers to operate complex machine-learning models. The San Francisco-based company OpenAI launched ChatGPT late last year. ChatGPT has recently received a lot of attention because of its ability to generate complex writings and other content from just a simple description in natural languages. Such tools can produce human-like results because they are trained on huge amounts of data. Many different materials are fed into the systems to permit them to learn complex skills to create realistic works.However, the MusicLM researchers said there were some risks linked to the new tool. One of the biggest issues the researchers identified was biases (偏好) present in the training data. A bias might be including too much of one side and not enough of the other. The researchers said this raised a question about appropriateness for music generation for cultures underrepresented in the training data.8．What can we learn about MusicLM?A．It is the first AI music tool to be launched.B．It requires detailed descriptions of full sentences.C．It creates music based on simple descriptive words.D．It generates complex writings from a simple description.9．What is the similarity between ChatGPT and MusicLM?A．They can take the place of musicians.B．They have gained commercial success.C．They don't have any practical use in life.D．They are based on huge amounts of data. 10．Which of the following is an issue of the MusicLM model?A．Creating music with strong biases.B．Requiring too much training data.C．Being difficult for some people to use.D．Producing music works with no creativity. 11．What would be the best title for the text?A．The future of humans with AI B．A new AI tool to make musicC．Music created by some AI tools D．AI and its function in culture developmentCyber-bullying (网络欺凌) may take place in the online world, but it is no less damaging than in the real world. The Internet has become a kindness desert, a place where few flowers bloom. Bullying is pretty common. 12 According to those bullied, they’re usually seen asbeing different from the crowd. They are unique.Being bullied is a frustrating and painful experience. Online bullying can really hurt others, and it can have serious consequences. 13 Some people have even committed suicide because they were harassed (侵扰) online and didn’t think it would ever stop. Here are some valuable tips to help you address a bully and protect yourself in a safe way.Don’t blame yourself. 14 It’s only the bully’s fault, so don’t blame yourself for his or her shortcomings.Stay away from bullies. Bullies hope you interact with them so that they have an excuse to keep picking on you. When the bully starts orally attacking you, remove yourself from the situation if you can, simply by walking away.15 Try as you might to ignore the bullies when they are saying ugly things about you. Remind yourself that you are a great person and that nothing the bullies say matters.Speak out. Nobody has the right to make you feel unsafe, uncomfortable or unhappy. Find someone you can talk to, your teacher or your parent and tell them what’s going on. 16 Follow these tips and you should feel well-equipped to deal with your bullies the next time they attack.A．Keep track of bullies.B．Be sure you’re wonderful.C．Adults can offer help if they know about the problem.D．Being bullied can make you feel alone, scared, and hopeless.E．Your parents are willing to help you when recognizing your problem.F．If you are being bullied, it’s essential to know that it is never your fault.G．Studies have found that nearly one-third of all students are bullied each year.二、完形填空The caring employees at a Costco store near Cleveland, Ohio, are being honoured as heroes.

Grammar （16’）Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, used one word that best fits each blank.AAlbert Einstein completely changed scientific thought. After he developed the Theory of Relativity, Einstein opened the door for the creation of the atomic bomb. Although Einstein was not famous in his lifetime, he later became 21__________ (famous) scientist of the 20th century.Although nowadays Einstein 22____________( consider) the best example of genius, in the first two decades of his life, many people thought Einstein was the exact opposite. When Einstein didn’t talk until he was three years old, his parents worried something was wrong with him. Einstein also failed 23__________ (impress) his teachers. From elementary school through college, his teachers and professors thought him lazy, sloppy, and insubordinate(不屈服的). Many of his teachers thought he would never amount to anything.24__________ appeared to be laziness in class was really boredom. 25__________ __________ just memorizing facts and dates, Einstein preferred to consider questions 26__________ __________ what makes the needle of a compass point in one direction? Why is the sky blue? What would it be like to travel at the speed of light?Unfortunately for Einstein, these were not the types of topics he was taught in school. 27__________ his excellent grades, Einstein found regular schooling to be strict and unfair. Things changed for Einstein when he treated Max Talmud friendly, the 21-year-old medical student who ate dinner at the Einstein’s once a week. Although Einstein was only eleven years old, Max introduced Einstein to numerous science and philosophy books and then discussed their content with him. Einstein flourished in this learning environment and it wasn’t long 28__________ Einstein surpassed (超过) what Max could teach him.BA son in many developing countries means insurance, __29___will inherit his father's property and help support the family. However, to parents, a daughter is just another expense. Her place is in the home, not in the world of men. A girl can't help but___30___(feel) inferior when everything around her tells her that she is worth less than a boy. Her future is, to some extent, shaped 31____ ______ ______ her family limits her opportunities and treat her as second-rater, which explains why women in developing countries perform much worse than men both in study and career.Deep discrimination against women creates a firm force that keeps girls from living up to their full potential. It also leaves them victims to severe physical and emotional harm. These "servants of the household" come to accept that life will never be any different. What’s most harmful, it results not only in millions of individual tragedies, but also in the lost potential for ___32__ entire country.Studies show there is a direct link between a country's attitude toward women and its social and economic progress. The status of women is central to the health of a society. If one part suffers, so does the whole.To deal with the situation, many women turn to education. Educated women are essential to ___33____ (end) sex discrimination, starting by reducing the poverty. The most basic skills in literacy and Maths open up opportunities for better-paying jobs for women. Uneducated women in rural areas of Zambia, for instance, are twice as likely to live in poverty as those who have had eight or more years of education.Women who have had some schooling are more likely to get married later, survive childbirth, have fewer and healthier children, and make sure their own children ____34____(complete) school. Understanding the importance of hygiene (卫生) and nutrition，they are more likely to stay in physical wellness.Nevertheless, the comprehensive change for a society speaks for the more far-reachingmeaning of women education.As women get the opportunity to go to school and obtain higher-level jobs, they gain status in their communities, which ____35___(translate) into the power to influence their families and societies.Such power___36___, together with other forces of outside interference, make even bigger changes possible and gradually lighten up women’s fates in these countries.III.Vocabulary( 20’)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.violent change in the education of young people. More and more young girls are signing up for the classes previously 37 only for boys. And, conversely, a good number of boys are finding that classes in cooking and sewing are extremely useful to their own 38 .A growing number of college students are choosing to take the classes which are meaningful and useful rather than 39 . I find it encouraging that some women are pursuing training as mechanics and electricians. Within ten years or so, the number of women in the mechanical field may be nearly 40 to the number of men.It is becoming more and more 41 th at women are not “mechanically dumb”. They just never got the 42 to learn the basics of mechanics. It doesn’t require a man’s hand to turn a screw or tighten a bolt. The tools are 43 for anyone’s hand. I know several women who have rebuilt and maintain their own cars, and they are no brawnier than an average secretary.Slowly, bit by bit, I am learning how the engine in my car works and what is required to keep it running. It’s dirty work and requires some 44 , but I am gaining independence because of the notion that it is “man’s work” and I won’t have to take it to a mechanic who would be happy to over-charge an “45 ” woman.Someday, perhaps, when women have been given the chance to allow their talents to blossom, we may find that lady mechanics will be 46 over males. Now won’t that be a switch?Many of the problems facing today’s world aren’t news to us. The environment is in dire need of help because it’s being damaged, hunger is 47 throughout the world, and workers in third world countries are continuously being exploited. Therefore, 48 across the globe need to join together for a cause and use their collective efforts to make all the difference in the world.For instance, one person recycling a can or a bottle doesn’t seem like much. But if every household in a given city were to recycle and conserve energy, that city could make a huge positive49 on environmental damage. 50 , there are countless ways to help fight world hunger—whether it’s to donate money to a dedicated worldwide charity, donate canned goods to your local charity, or even make 51 changes like going vegetarian. World hunger is a massive problem—but it doesn’t mean individuals themselves can’t make a difference.Worker exploitation is another huge problem. All across the world—particularly in third world countries—workers are forced to 52 long hours, with close to no pay. Yet these workers continue to show up to such a way of life, because they have no other 53 .So, how can people like us help fight such a big problem? 54 raising awareness of the products you buy in stores—from clothing to food—is a massive start. For example, if you see two similar products side by side in a food shop, but one of them is 55 “fair trade”, you’ll know immediately that the workers who labored to produce that product were given a 56 price for their goods. And true, fair trade products might cost a little bit more, but buying them is a significant start to help fight worker exploitation.IV. Reading ComprehensionSection A (15’)Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live, we must communicate with other people.

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 you have just read.AWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.72．According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.A．diseases and aging B．accidents and warC．accidents and aging D．heart disease and war73．In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in ________. A．medicine B．the Internet C．brain cells D．human organs74．Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A．heart disease will be far away from usB．human brains can decide the final deathC．the basic materials of cells will last foreverD．human organs can be repaired by new medicine75．How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A．Over 100 years. B．More than 120 years.C．About 150 years. D．The passage doesn’t tell us.B(You may read the questions first.)Mini Book ExcerptsBiographyWhen Salinger learned that a car park was to be built on the land, themiddle-aged writer was shocked and quickly bought the neighboring areato protect it… The townspeople never forgot the rescue and came to helptheir most famous neighbor.J.

But in Mary Fields’ case, these features wereoutmatched by a heart of gold that made her legendary(传奇的).Born into slavery in Tennessee in 1832 or 1833, Mary had nothing, noteven a date of birth. However, in her early years, she found something of trulylasting value—a friend named Dolly. In addition to friendship, Dolly also mayhave taught Mary to read and write, an invaluable advantage for slaves. At the end of America’s Civil War, Mary finally received her freedom and made her own way out into the world.Mary was employed on a steamboat as a maid when she received word from Dolly, now a nun （修女）in Ohio called Mother Amadeus. Mary arrived in Ohio in 1878 and worked at Amadeus’ girls’ school, managing the kitchen and garden. She became known as a gun-carrying, cigar-smoking woman, but also as an example of kindness and reliability. After a few years, though, Amadeus was sent to another school out West in Montana, becoming the first black woman to settle in central Montana.When Mary was in her 50s, a sick Mother Amadeus called her West. So Mary made her way to the small town of Cascade, Montana, to nurse Amadeus to health. She did this and more, running supplies and visitors to St. Peter’s Mission where Amadeus lived. Once when her wagon(四轮马车) overturned, she guarded the delivery from wolves through the night.But Mary's rough edges caused the local bishop (主教) to prohibit her from working at the mission. Mother Amadeus then set her up as the first African-American female employee of the U.S. Postal Service. Though in her 60s, Mary was such a dependable mail carrier that she earned the name “tagecoach” Mary. She became a beloved figure in Cascade. She was the only woman allowed in the saloon (酒馆), was the baseball team’s biggest fan and was given free meals in thetown hotel.Nearly 70, Mary quit delivering the mail but remained in Cascade. The town’s school closed to celebrate her unknown birthday twice a year. When she passed away in 1914, a simple cross was placed to mark her grave and her legend in the Wild West.80. What about Mary Fields impressed people most?A. Her tall and fat figure.B. Her reputation as an educated slave.C. Her friendliness and responsibility.D. Her habit of carrying a gun and smoking.81.

Thisdifference hasn’t been more pronounced since the start of the start of the novel coronavirus epidemic—when a great number of people are falling ill at all the same time.The conditions in the US are getting worse quickly, which is largely due to the fact that there is no universal healthcare system. According to the 2019 US Census, 28 million people are not covered or do not have adequate health insurance, meaning that they would probably avoid getting tested for the virus, for fear of the cost of being hospitalized.“__________85___________So many people have no alternative but to try to keep working and caring for children so as to keep life going, and by consequence, they are spreading the virus simply because they have no other choice,” wrote reporter James Hamblin on the Atlantic.Germany, on the contrary, has one of the world’s best-developed and most expensive public healthcare systems that covers every citizen. People in Germany—who have “high levels of job security”, according to the Los Angeles Times—are also more likely to follow the quarantine measures and stay at home without having to worry about losing their jobs._______86________.“The conditions to deal with the virus in Germany are among the best in the world,” said German Chancellor Angela Merkel, according to the Los Angeles Times.Japan also has universal public healthcare, but it brings another kind of problem: People tend to seek more medical care than necessary. According to Yusuke Tsugawa, a physician at Harvard University, Japan has three times more outpatient visits than the US, and patients also stay in hospital for three times longer than in the US.__________87__________________.“It isn’t good to do tests just to ease public anxiety,” Kentaro Iwata, an infectious disease expert at Kobe University. Japan , told Reuters. “If they test every one with light symptoms, the medical system will puncture(破损).”Indeed, a country’s healthcare system is the key to keeping its people safe---it’s also the key to whether a country can survive a crisis like the novel coronavirus pandemic.V.

But for Andrew, a herder at a farm in Zimbabwe, it's not a problem. Once he spo ts Toro, he knows the rest of the herd is nearby. That’s because Toro isn’t an ordinary member of the herd. He's a giraffe. In hot weather, cattle rest in the shade under his belly. And because of his height, Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd.Toro's unusual situation came about after his mother was killed by lions. Toro survived the attack, but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk. About two days later, some herders spotted and rescued him. With the permission of the Department of Wildlife, the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm. Since giraffes and cattle are both plant-eating animals that live in groups, their behaviors are much the same. Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass.Toro doesn't always behave like the other members of his new herd. Like many kinds of animals, cattle compete for dominance (支配). Standing more than 13 feet tall, Toro is more than three times taller than the biggest bull, But Toro never tries to be ''the boss. ''He is very used to their company, '' Andrew said. When the herd enters the kraal (家畜栏), the cows and bulls push each other. ''But thanks to his height, Toro does not need to join the mess, '' said Andrew.When asked if Toro would ever be returned to the wild, Munetsi, an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no. ''In the wild, he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators (猎食者),'' he added. ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle.''21. What was Toro like when the herders found him?A. He was left alone.B. He was seriously ill.C. He was lost in the bush.D. He was fighting with lions.22. What do we know about Toro in the cattle herd?A. He has fought to be the leader.B. He gets along well with the herd.C. He is pushed around by the bulls.D. He stays away from the herd most of the time23. What will happen to Toro according to Munetsi?A. He will be sent back to the wild.B. He will be put into another herd of giraffes.C. He will continue to live together with Andrew.D. He will be trained to fight with the big animals.24. What may be the best title for the text?A. Giraffes under threat in the wildB. A surprising new family for a giraffeC. A new way of herding appearing in AfricaD. Moments showing friendship between animalsBWhen Faith Wanjiku graduated from the Technical University of Kenya last year, she immediately enrolled (注册) at the Confucius Institute in Kenyatta University. She wanted to learn Chinese, as she believed that it would help her land a good job.She has just completed the hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) 3 exam. HSK is a test of Chinese language level fornon-native speakers, organized by the Confucius Institute Headquarters.However, this level isn’t enough for Wanjiku, who plans to pass HSK 6. She wanted to increase her level of Chinese and improve her spoken Chinese. And Wanjiku isn’t alone. The number of people taking the HSK reached 6.8 million in 2018 and went up 4.6 percent from a year earlier, the Ministry of Education said on May 31.Chinese is becoming an increasingly popular choice of language to study around the world. Currently, middle school students in Russia can take Chinese as an elective language test in the country’s national colleg e entrance exam, Sputnik News reported.In May, Zambia became the fourth country in Africa-after Kenya, Uganda and South Africa—to introduce Chinese language to its schools.And many English-speaking countries have shown an interest in allowing their students to learn Chinese. The US government announced the launch of “1 Million Strong” in 2015, a plan that aims to bring the total number of learners of Chinese to l million by 2020.Behind the growing popularity of Chinese language learning is the internatio nal community’s positive attitude toward Chinas future development, as well as the people’s longing to learn about Chinese civilization and culture.Indeed, it’s as the former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela put it, “if you talk to a man in a lang uage he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”25. What did Wanjiku do after graduating from university?A. She went abroad.B. She learned Chinese.C. She found a job.D. She travelled to China.26. HSK is a test for ______.A. non-native speakersB. native speakersC. middle school studentsD. college students27. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. Wangjiku has lots of friends.B. Lots of people want to pass HSK6 exam.C. Wangjiku has passed HSK3 exam.D. Many people want to live in China.28. What may be the best title for the text?A. Chinese Language Study Takes OffB. Chinese Play an Important Role in EconomyC.People Share the Experience of Learning ChineseD. Different Opinions about the Function of Chinese C Australia and New Zealand’s health organizations have given their advice on when to use sunscreen (防晒霜),suggesting Australians apply it every day to avoid bad health effects.A Sunscreen Summit took place in the Australian State of Queensland. During the summit, representatives from some of Australia’s leading research, medical and public health organizations examined the evidence on sunscreen use and determined that in most parts of the country it is beneficial to apply sunscreen every day.“Up until now, public health organizations have recommended applying sunscreen ahead of planned outdoor activities but haven t recommended applying it every day as part of a morning routine (惯例),” professor Rachel Neale from QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute said. “In recent years, it has become clear that the DNA damage causes skin cancer and melanoma(黑色素瘤), which is caused by repeated small exposure to sunlight over a period of time,” Neale said. “In Australia, we get a lot of sun exposure from everyday activities such as alking to the bus stop or train station,” Neale said.A study showed that one in two Australians believed it was unhealthy and potentially dangerous to use sunscreen every day. However, Terry Slevin from the Public Health Association of Australia says it is wrong. “There is consistent and compelling evidence that sunscreens are safe,” Slevin said. “Importantly, medical trials have found that people who use sunscreen daily have the same levels of vitamin d as those w ho don’t,” Slevin added.Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world which is made worse by the country’s close to Antarctica where there is a hole in the ozone layer (臭氧层), letting in higher numbers of UV rays.29. What made Australian health organizations advise Australians to use sunscreen?A. The makers of sunscreen.B. Australian government.C.The Sunscreen Summit.D. New Zealand’s researchers.30. What is not recommended before the Sunscreen Summit? A. Using sunscreen before outdoor activities. B. Using sunscreen as a morning routine. C. Reducing the use of sunscreen. D. Reducing outdoor activities.31. What is the misunderstanding of many Australians?A. People using sunscreen won’t have skin cancer.B.Sunscreen will never take effect.C. People using sunscreen have the same levels of vitaminD. D. Sunscreen is bad for people’s health.32. Which of the following best explains “compelling” underlined in paragraph 4?A.Interesting. B. Disappointing. C. Boring. D. Convincing. D Scientists blame greenhouse gases for being a major cause of climate change around the world. This is becausegreenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere and make the planet warmer.Now, a team of researchers has announced a successful experiment that turned carbon dioxide into useful liquid fuel. The researchers created a device, called a reactor, which changes bon dioxide into a pure form of formic acid(甲酸). Formic acid is a substance (物质) found in ants and some other insects, as well as in many plants. It is used as an antibacterial material and in the processing of some kinds of clothing.Haotian Wang led the research team. He said in a statement that the results of the experiment were important because formic acid is a major carrier of energy. So, the substance can provide a way to reuse carbon dioxide and prevent it from being released into the atmosphere. “It’s a fuel-cell fuel that can generate electricity and send out carbon dioxide which you can grab and recycle again,” Wang said.“Other methods for turning carbon dioxide into formic acid require intense purification processes,” Wang said. Such methods are very costly and require a lot of energy. The Rice University team said it was able to reduce the number of steps in the traditional process to create a low-cost, energy-saving method.The researchers reported the reactor device performed with a conversion rate (转化率) of 42 percent. This means that nearly half of the electrical energy can be stored in formic acid as liquid fuel. The team said the reactor was able to create formic acid continuously for 100 hours with little degradation (退化) of the device’s parts.Wang said the reactor could easily be used to produce other high-value products, including alcohol-based fuels. The researchers noted that the technology could also be a big help in solving another major energy problem—how to store large amounts of power in small places.33. What factor is the main cause of climate change?A. Greenhouse gases.B. Chemistry waste.C. Formic acid.D. Liquid fuel.34. What do we know about formic acid?A. It is a large amount of power.B. It can be found in ants.C. It is high- value equipment.D. It is a substance in clothing.35. What is Wang’s attitude towards his own research?A. Doubtful.B. Aggressive.C. Optimistic.D. Uncaring.36. In what magazine can you read this text?A. A travel magazine.B. A sports magazine.C. A music magazine.D. A science magazine.EThe 2016 Rio Olympic Games have come to an end. Without doubt, many Chinese sports fans sat in front of the TV and cheered our athletes on, hoping that they would get as many gold medals as possible.But sometimes our desire for gold medals can result in the sadness of failure. When Liu Xiang, China’s track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier Chinese attitude towards the sports people, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.China didn’t win any gold medals o n the first day. But, instead of criticizing(批评) the athletes who failed to win, most of the fans were happy with their efforts. “Looking at the results in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity(成熟) of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans’ hearts, even if she only won the third place in the 100m backstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo have increased 100,000 to over 6 million. Many sports fans appreciated her straightforward character and attitude towards competitions.“The warm support from Internet users shows that public attitude towards competitive sports and the Olympics has gotten to a higher level”, said an article in the People’s Daily.37. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. Gold medals can also cause sadness.B. Liu Xiang always disappoints his fans.C. Fans have high expectations of Liu Xiang.D. Liu Xiang got injured before the Olympics.38. What is people’s attitu de now towards the athletes who failed?A. Interested.B. Understanding.C. Angry.D. Disappointed.39. What makes people like Fu Yuanhui?A. Her Sina Weibo.B. Her kindness to the fans.C. Her attitude to competitions.D. Her winning a gold medal.40. What does the author mainly want to tell us in this passage?A. Winning gold medals is important.B. Changing attitude to athletes is a must.C. Results are not important in the competition.D. Peoples’ attitude towards competitive sports is healthier.三、七选五（共5小题，每道题2分，共10分）After a long day at work, coming home is a breath of fresh air. ____41____ However, is it as healthy as it can be?

Left in poor conditions with no food or water, they have little hope as they live out their days without the mercy they deserve. Some are found and rescued, given the chance to experience how great life and humans can be; others aren't so lucky. To grow as a nation, we must fight for these abused(受虐待的) animals’ rights and seriously punish heartless owners.One of the first steps in protecting animals and creating effective cruelty laws is to know what animal cruelty actually is. There are two categories: passive cruelty and active cruelty. The first involves acts of omission, meaning the abuse happens as a result of ignorance or lack of action. Passive cruelty might seem less serious, but that is not the case; it can lead to terrible pain and suffering, and finally death. Examples include starvation, inadequate shelter in extreme weather conditions, and the failure to get medical care. Passive cruelty is sometimes due to the owner's ignorance, so many animal control officers will first try to educate ignorant owners on how to properly care for animals before giving them a citation(传票) or putting them in prison.Active cruelty, on the other hand, is more well-known and disturbing. Sometimes referred to as non-accidental injury, this type of abuse involves purposeful harm on an animal in order to feel more powerful or gain control. Active cruelty against animals should be taken very seriously, since it can be a sign that a person hasserious psychological issues and may commit more acts of violence---possibly against humans.It is hard to tell just what drives people to harm innocent animals. Most animal abusers find some sort of achievement or power in torturing a victim that they know can't fight back. While not all animal abusers become serial killers, it is important to take every case seriously.As a nation we need to make it our right to come together and ensure the safety of our beloved pets. As Margaret Mead once said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”4. What is the first step to do with the passive cruelty abusers?A. To throw them into prison.B. To bring the case to the court.C. To teach them how to treat animals.D. To give them a strong warning.5. We can learn from Para.3 that active cruelty ______.A. is actually a sign of power or controlB. has been taken seriously in the nationC. may lead to serious psychological problemsD. may cause acts of violence against humans6. What is the author’s attitude towards animal cruelty?A. Uncertain.B. Doubtful.C. Concerned.D. Pessimistic.7. The author wrote this passage to ______.A. warn those heartless pet ownersB. tell people the harm of animal crueltyC. explain the reasons why people harm animalsD. call on people to fight for the abused animalsCYou must have read "The Tortoise and the Hare(《龟兔赛跑》)" when you were younger. So which animal are you? The tortoise or the hare? Do you rush around trying to do things as quickly as possible? Or do you deal your work at a slow , but steady(稳定的)pace? Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.Some will say that you should avoid being like the hare. After all. he was overconfident and finally lost the race. You mayalso have heard teachers say from time to time that "haste makes waste”. But what does that mean?Most people think it meant that the faster you do something,the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches wantyouto approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.But does haste always make waste? Not necessarily ! Some people are able to work quickly while also maintaining(保持)a high level of quality in all that they do. Recent research, however, is making the idea of haste making waste seem more believableResearchers found that the brain changes into a special mode(模式)when forced to make rapid decisions. Overall, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and correctness. As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.When you approach things like the tortoise. you methodically and steadily work towards your goal. You might not arrive there first, but then again you might! In any case, you're likely to make fewer mistakes and you might just enjoy the journey more than the bare.Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. In the end, the most meaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on , not the destination we reached. So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that the slow and steady journey is what you’ll remember and treasure the most.8. Why does the author mention the story in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic.B. To show its popularity.C. To suggest its importance.D. To advise readers to read it.9. For what purpose do teachers often say “haste makes waste to students?A. To ask them not to waste their time.B. To tell them it is OK to make mistakes.C. To ask them to avoid making silly mistakes.D. To tell them they should check their schoolwork.10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How the brain collects the information it needs.B. When the decision made by the brain is correct.C. Why the quickly-made decision is often unwise.D. What the relationship between lime and results is.11. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Finishing the race is often a victory for everyone.B. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.C. The journey to every destination starts with a small step.D. A destination is important because it guides us on the journey.DSome years ago a young man applied to a large United States optical firm for a job as a lens designer. He apologized for lack of training, but on announcing that he owned two copies of the classic Conrady's Applied Optics and Optical Design, one for his office and a second for his bedside table, he was hired on the spot. Perhaps the story will be repeated some day with Buchdahl's Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics as a similar certificate of qualification.Hamiltonian theory describes with powerful generality the overall properties of optical systems considered as ‘black boxes’, although it does not describe the detailed structure needed to construct the systems and achieve these properties. Buchdahl's book is therefore on the subject of geometrical optics, but it is not about how to design lenses. It is, however a compact comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory written with the lens designer's needs very much in mind. Every lens designer worth his salt has at some time in his career attempted to apply the broad concepts of Hamiltonian optics to the solutions of practical problems. Success has been sufficiently rare that the theory, as such, has made little direct contribution to techniques for optical instrument design. The failures have been frustrating because of the obvious fundamental power of the theory and because of its conceptual elegance. The indirect effects have been large, however, both in contributing to an understanding of fundamental principles that govern the overall behavior of optical systems and in pointing the way to other, more practical, theoretical approaches.Buchdahl approaches the subject not only as a capable mathematical physicist, but as one who with a knowledge of practical optics has made a significant contribution to geometrical optical theory. Buchdahl's approach has, over the last decade, had a major impact on modern lens design with computers. Thus, he brings to this exposition of Hamiltonian optics a familiarity with practical optics not usually found in authors on this subject.The author claims his book to be non-mathematical, and indeed it might be so viewed by a professional mathematician. From the point of view of many physicists and engineers, it will appear to be quite mathematical. Moreover, this is a tightly written book. The subject matter is developed with precision, and the author expects the reader, at very point, to be master of the preceding exposition.12. Hamiltonian theory met with failures as a result of ______.A. newer finding related to the wave particle nature of lightB. very complicated concepts too difficult to understand by most lens designersC. too much mathematical detail in the theoryD. not enough practical information offered by the theory to allow for use by lens crafters13. The author of this passage implies that Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics is necessary to ______.A. the students who are major in mathematical geometryB. those who want to grasp the basic principles of optical systemsC. the lens designers who look for instructions on practical designsD. those who are interested in physics14. The article points out that the great benefits of Hamiltonian optics have been found is ______.A. indirect ways of learning mathematicsB. a fundamental power within the theoryC. the conceptual elegance of the theoryD. the practical applications of the theory in finding new approaches to old problems15. This passage is probably excerpted from ______.A. a review of a bookB. a chemistry textbookC. an optician's essayD. a general science text第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

"We basically noticed that some of the extra food from the dining hall was going to waste at the end of the day. And we met with the dining services and asked them whether it would be okay if instead of throwing out the food we could donate it. And they were on board." he said.So 18 months ago, the students began what they call the Food Recovery Network. Each night, volunteers would show up at a campus dining hall to pick up leftovers and deliver them to area shelters and food banks. So far, they have donated more than 23,000 kilos of food that would otherwise have been thrown out.Nationwide, $165 billion worth of food is wasted each year, according to the National Resources Defense Council. Spokesman Bob Keefe says that is about 40% of the country's entire food production. 4t If we can reduce our waste in this country by 15%, we can feed 25 million hungry Americans. That is a hugebenefit. That is what programs like this Food Recovery Network are doing. " he said.Christian Life Center is one of the beneficiaries of the students' efforts. Ben SI ye, the senior pastor （牧师）,said, 44It has been just amazing to see these students take their own time, their own vehicles and own gas money and be able to make an effort like this. Each week we are able with this food probably to feed over hundred people.”The University of Maryland's Food Recovery Network now has 200 volunteers and the program has expanded to 18 schools across the country. 4t I want to grow 18 chapters to a thousand chapters within five years. And once vve get to the Food Recovery Nation being at every college campus in America, wc want to expand to restaurants and fhrms."

Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at so-called critical moments. These include after using the Loilet, after cleaning a baby and before .touching food.Global Hand Washing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Hand Washing with Soap. The goal, they say, is to create a culture of hand washing with soap. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germs （病菌）.They say the correct way to wash hands is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Then, rinse well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth.The Partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soapalso helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell, which increases the likelihood that people will wash again.It also says washing with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than an.y medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea （痢疾），which is the second leading cause of child deaths, killing more than one and a half million children a year, by almost half.26.The Partnership creates Global Hand Washing Day to.A.call on people to wash handsB.help the developing countriesC.make a culture of hand washing in the third worldD.promote the importance of soap in hand washing27.The following facts can explain why soap is important EXCEPT thatA.soap gets people into the habit of washing handsB.soap helps to get rid of more germs off handsC.soap attracts people to do more hand washingD.soap gives people a longer hand washing time28.According to the last paragraph, diarrhea is a disease that.A.kills half of the kids in developing countriesB.can be prevented by washing hands with soapC.causes the greatest number of child deathsD.makes soap stand out in hand washing第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分一）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

B.A traveler's journal.C.A news report.D.A trip guide.BThere are 195 countries in the world today but almost none of them have purple on their national flag. So what’s wrong with purple? It’s such a popular color1 today. Why would no country use it in their flag? The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just for too expensive.The color1 purple has been associated with royalty power and wealth for centuries. Queen Elizabeth I forbade anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it. Purple’s high status comes from the rarity and cost of the dye (染料)originally used to produce it. Fabric traders got the dye from a small sea snail (海螺)that was only found in the Tyre region of the Mediterranean. More than 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of purple; not to mention a lot of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive.Since only wealthy rulers could afford to buy and wear the color1 , it became associated with the royal family. Sometimes, however, the dye was too expensive even for royalty. Third century Roman Emperor Aurelio famously wouldn’t allow his wife to buy a scarf made from purple silk because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today. Therefore, even the richest countries couldn’t spend that much having purple on their flags.The dye became more accessible to lower-class about a century and a half ago. In 1856, 18-year-old English chemist William Henry Perkin accidentally created a man-made purple compound (化合物)while attemptingto produce an anti-malaria drug. He noticed that the compound could be used to dye fabrics, so he patented the dye, manufactured it and got rich. Purple dye was then mass-produced so everybody could afford it.Till now, a handful of new national flags have been designed and a few of them have chosen to use purple in their flag. So don’t be making any bets just yet.4. Why was color1 purple expensive in the past?A. Because only royal families were allowed to wear purple.B. Because it took a long time to get purple dye from gold.C. Because purple was worth as much as its weight in gold.D. Because purple dye used to be rare and hard to produce.5. Why did Roman Emperor Aurelio forbid his wife to buy a purple scarf?A. Because of poor quality.B. Because of long tradition.C. Because of bad taste.D. Because of high price.6. What is purple's situation now?A. Purple has been widely used on national flags.B. Purple dye is now affordable to ordinary people.C. Royal family stop using purple because it’s toocommon.D. Fewer snails are used to produce purple dye than before.7. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. No Purple Flags?B. Purple vs GoldC. How to Produce Purple Dye?D. The Birth of Purple ColorCSome of the oldest art in human history is being damaged, scientists say. And climate change may be speeding up its loss. Newresearch reports that ancient rock art in Indonesian caves is degrading over time, as bits of rock slowly break off from the walls. It's a huge loss for human history.Salt crystals（结晶）building up on the walls are a key part of the problem, the study suggests. These salt crystals go into the cave walls, changing sizes as temperatures rise and fall. This process causes the rock to slowly break down.Salt crystals may become larger when exposed to repeated changes between wet conditions and periods of drought. These kinds of changes are expected to become more obvious as the climate continues to warm.In particular, the researchers say, climate change may cause more intense El Nino（厄尔尼诺）events in the future. These events can strengthen the kinds of conditions that help salt crystals form Scientists are still debating the exact influence of climate change on El Nino, a natural climate cycle that drives changing patterns of warming and cooling in thePacific Ocean.The new study, led by Jillian Huntley, examined 11 ancient cave art sites in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The researchers found evidence of salt formation at all 11 sites. It's merely a small part There are more than 300 known eave art sites around the region. The researchers note that salt crystals may indeed be part of the problem,adding that climate change is a growing threat, one that deserves more attention.8. What is the main cause of the rocks breaking off from the wall?A. Weather patterns.B. Salt crystals.C. Wet conditions.D. Drought Periods.9. Which of the following may researchers agree with?A. El Nino events prevent salt crystals forming.B. Climate change makes little difference to El Nino.C.Salt crystals may become much larger in wet conditions.D. Constant warm weather may cause salt crystals to change size.10. Which word best describes Huntley's attitude to climate change?A. Worried.B. Curious.C. Doubtful.D. Positive.11. What can we learn from thelast paragraph?A. The formation and patterns of salt crystals.B. The impact of climate change on ancient rock arts.C. The historical value of ancient rock art in cave sites.D. The threats of human activities to ancient eave art sites.DFor years, Zach Ault, a father of three, enjoyed being physically active. He was even training for a half-marathon. But in 2017, he took time off to recover from an infection. After recovering, he tried to continue his runs but could not complete them. He was not able to spend time with his children. He had to cut back his job. Even sleeping as much as 16 hours a day made no difference in his condition.“His body had literally hijacked him and it wasn't going to allow him to push through, ” said Anne Ault, his wife. After months of testing, doctors announced their result-chronic fatigue syndrome, a disease that makes an individual feel extremely tired.This fatigue lasts more than six months and becomes worse after any kind of physical exertion (费力活动). Patients may have difficulty standing upright. They also may have trouble thinking, often described as a “brain fog”. There are no approvedtreatments, or even tests to help with diagnosis. There is no way to predict who will recover and who will have a severe case that lasts for years.Now the doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are conducting a unique study to learn more about the condition. Zach Ault is one of the subjects in the study. When Ault rides an exercise bicycle, scientists measurehow his leg muscles use oxygen. Afterward, doctors fit a special cap on Ault's head to measure electrical activity in his brain. They then send him to spend the night in an air-tight room where air has been removed with pipe for additional study. Scientists measure oxygen and carbon dioxide levels to tell how much energy Ault is using, minute by minute. “We're figuring out how his body adjusts to an exercise load, or a stress load.”“It's hard not knowing if or when I'm going to recover, ” he said. But Ault says the study did help him learn about the disease. And it gave him ideas about how to save up his energy.12. What was Zach Ault's life like before 2017?A. He was fond of exercising.B. He won several half-marathons.C. He spent much time lying in bed.D. He was busy looking after his children.13. How did the infection affect Zach Ault?A. He lost his job.B. He was unable to sleep.C. He became too weak to do sports.D. He was tired of running a half-marathon.14. What can we learn about chronic fatigue syndrome?A. It usually lasts no more than months.B. It is likely to cause thinking disorders.C. Patients with it need to stay in bed all day long.D. Patients with it should avoid any kind of exercise.15. What does Zach Ault think of the study?A. It helped him cure his illness.B. It helped him recover and stay fit.C. It taught him how to enjoy cycling.D. It brought him new ideas about fighting diseases.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

AIf you’d like to go sightseeing,the following World Heritage sites(世界遗产保护地)may be your best choices.Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest AreaJiuzhaigou Valley,which lies in the northern part of Sichuan Province,China,reaches a height of more than4,800m,with a series of different forest ecosystems(生态系统).It’s particularly famous for its narrow landforms and excellent waterfalls.Some140kinds of birds also live in the valley,as well as a number of endangered plants and animals,including the giant panda.Jiuzhaigou Valley was recognized as a World Heritage site by UNESCO in1992.Khami Ruins National MonumentThe city of Khami,which developed after the capital of Great Zimbabwe had been given up in the mid-16th century,is of great archaeological(考古的)interest.The discovery of objects from Europe and China shows that Khami was a major centre for trade over a long period of time.It joined the World Heritage List in1986.Henderson IslandHenderson Island,which lies in the eastern South Pacific,is one of the few atolls(环礁)in the world whose ecology(生态)has been untouched by humans.It is particularly famous for the10 plants and4birds that can only be seen on the island.It was recorded in the World Heritage List in 1988.Old City of JerusalemAs a holy(神圣的)city for three different religions in the Middle East,Jerusalem has always been of great religious importance.It was given a World Heritage Status in1981and placed on the“World Heritage in Danger List”the following year.1.Which of the following is TRUE about Jiuzhaigou Valley?A.Wonderful waterfalls can be seen there.B.It is famous for many ancient objects.C.It has been untouched by human beings.D.It lies in the eastern South Pacific.2.From the passage,we can learn that Jerusalem.A.was ruined in the mid-16th centuryB.was once business center for tradeC.is a holy city for three major religionsD.has over140kinds of birds living there3.According to the passage,which World Heritage site was most recently set?A.Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area.B.Henderson Island.C.Khami Ruins National Monument.D.Old City of Jerusalem.4.In which part of a newspaper can we read the passage?A.Industry.B.Travel.C.Science.D.Business.BI was once invited to speak at a high school.Before the speech,I saw David.He sat in his wheelchair barely able to move.As soon as he saw me he started smiling.He could not talk but I pretended the sharks were eating his cereal and his laugh melted the hearts of everyone walking by.One of the teachers told me that he was actually very smart,and that he just could not control his muscles due to a childhood disease.He was happy and very popular at his school—his parents'love and encouragement made all the difference.On the contrary—at a book signing session,I met a girl by the name of Anne.She walked up with her mum with a bright smile.Anne asked about my book with a slur(含糊地说)in her speech indicating a slight head injury.I told her about it and she smiled the whole time and asked me to sign one for her.I did.Five minutes later,I heard a voice from Anne’s father,“You know you will not understand the book.You can’t read well enough.”You aren’t smart enough."He said it so loudly that people were staring in their direction.She was absolutely crushed and her bright smile was now replaced with a look of total despair.He took the book from her and brought it back to me and asked me to take it back.I asked him if he would allow me to purchase the book for Anne.He said no with a heartless response.I thought back to David.He could not speak,walk,run or play but was actually very happy and even doing well in school because of the love and encouragement of his parents.Anne on the other hand had a slight learning problem and may never know the happiness of success because of a stern(苛刻的)father.What kind of parent are you?The truth is that what you are telling your kids makes the difference between their success and failure in life.5.What is David’s problem?A.He has a mental block.B.He suffers a muscles'disease.C.He can’t speak or read.D.He isn’t smart enough.6.What’s Anne’s feeling when hearing her father’s words?A.Light-hearted.B.Heart-broken.C.Cautious.D.Doubtful.7.The author is probably___________.A.a writerB.a doctorC.a teacherD.a lawyerCSmartphones,tablets and smart watches are banned at school for all children under15in France.Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours,including meal breaks.“I think it’s a good thing.School is not about being on your phone,”Paris mum Marie-Caroline Madeleine told AFP.“It's hard with kids.You can't control what they see and that’s one of the things that worries me as a parent.”There is no law like this in Australia,but some Australian schools have banned phones. McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day learning but they're not allowed to use social media.Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned(抱怨),”but now they’re seeing the positives(优势).“They come to school and they're not allowed to use phones at all during the school day,including lunch breaks,”she said.“It’s been wonderful as for students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen,”Ms Binnion said.She also leads by example and doesn't use her mobile phone in school.“I think anyone can do it if we’ve done it.”Not everyone agrees with the bans.Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it’s important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.“A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn,communicate and work with ideas,”she wrote.“Banning students from using smartphones is a1950s response to a 2020state-of-play.”8.Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A.Teachers find it hard to control kids.B.Kids behave badly nowadays.C.Her kids depend too much on phones.D.School is for studying.9.What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A.Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.B.Some teachers were against it at first.C.Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.D.Students can now see the good of the ban.10.What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A.It will disconnect parents and kids.B.It will cause kids to communicate less.C.It will make education go back60years.D.It will prevent kids being tech-minded.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

He loved to annoy me and I wanted to boss him around. I am five years older so we didn’t really share friends or activities but we always got along well. That all changed in 2013 when my mom died.Sorrow does strange things to people. My brother and I dealt with it differently. He was 18 then and put his feelings into finishing his final year of high school.I turned to drug. I’d been using a painkiller for years to help with my kidney disease and I’d never abused it. But that changed in a moment. My mother’s death took over my life. I remember swallowing a handful of painkillers and then calling a local drug dealer to bring me more pills.My addiction progressed and I became even more irresponsible. I even risked losing my son when child protective services became concerned enough about my ability to be a good parent. I’ll never forget the fear on my brother’s face when he came to the police station. My brother was confused by my decisions. He didn’t realize addiction was a mental illness. I could see the anger and hopelessness in his eyes. Seeing him walk away from me was one of the worst feelings I’ve ever experienced.I started treatment. As my brother saw the work I put into my recovery, he began to let go of his anger. Little by little, we repaired our relationship. I know our mother would be proud. I remember someone telling me that my mother’s death would either destroy our family or bring us closer. At first, it tore our family apart but, from ashes to beauty, I firmly believe her death and all of the hardship along the way have made us closer than ever. I am forever grateful.4．How did the bro ther react to their mother’s death?A．He lost hope for life. B．He started to take drugs.C．He quit school immediately.

But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar(声呐)signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. "What we've shown is that it's actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air，" says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT's Media Lab, who led the research.The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (振动)corresponding to the Is and Os of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane' s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.Right now the technology is low-resolution. The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions-high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction- air to water.If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect "texting while diving" to be the latest underwater fashion.8．What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1？A．The future of video chat underwater and in air.B．The difficulty of communication from water to air.C．The frustrations of developing underwater devices.D．The current situation of communicating with a submarine.9．What does the underlined word "feasible" mean？A．Changeable. B．Convenient. C．Achievable. D．Alternative. 10．What do we know about TARF？A．It is widely used to find downed planes.B．It can work well at great depths underwater.C．It is an underwater machine that sends signals.D．It can send, receive and read signals from underwater.11．What is the best title for the text？A．The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology.B．A Breakthrough in the Application of Video Chat.C．Full Water-to-air Communication Closer to Reality.D．TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication.DFemale scientists with PhDs earn substantially less than their male counterpart (职位相当的人). A survey tracked more than 55,700 people who earned PhDs between 2024 and 2024. Overall, about 35% of all PhD recipients reported having a permanent job lined up at graduation, among which men reported an average annual salary of $95,000. Women reported a salary of $72,500, a gap of $22,500. In a similar survey in 2024, the overall gender（性别） gap in salaries was $18,000.Men were over-represented in relatively high-paying fields such as computer science and engineering, but inequality continued to exist even within fields. Men with permanent jobs in the life sciences, for example, reported an expected median salary of $87,000, compared with $80,000 for women. In mathematics and computer science, men reported an expected median salary of $125,000; for women, that figure was $101,500.Salaries and career paths can vary greatly from one scientific discipline to another, says Michael Roach, an economist at Cornell University. Roach is looking closely into differences in career outcomes for US PhD holders. Roach says it’s clear that women, on average, earn less than men even when all other factors are taken into account. In industrial research and development, there are differences that can’t be explained by ability or degree or the status of a university.The root causes of those differences remain unclear, Roach says. One possibility is that men are more willing to negotiate for higher salaries. Roach notes that some women might have to make sacrifices to start families, but it would be a mistake to blame all income gaps on lifestyle decisions. “A lot of men want to spend mor e time with their families too,” he says.The report shows that a PhD improves overall career and salary prospects, but the actual value clearly depends on the field of study, the demands of the marketplace and, for reasons that still aren’t clear, the per son holding the degree. Researchers are still looking at the factors that might keep women from achieving the same level of success that equally qualified men are able to achieve.12．Which of the following is NOT a cause of the salary differences? A．Gender. B．Negotiation skills.C．The field of study. D．Earning a PhD．13．According to the second paragraph, which of the following is likely to earn the highest salary?A．A man working in mathematics.B．A woman working in computer science.C．A man working in the life sciences.D．A woman working in the life science.14．What does Roach probably agree with?A．The income gaps are mainly caused by lifestyle decisions.B．Lifestyle decisions may not be the only cause of income gaps.C．Men are more likely to spend time with their families than women.D．Women are more likely to spend time with their families than men.15．What is the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A．To discuss methods to prevent salary differences.B．To praise the researchers’ effort.C．To raise awareness of gender pay gap.D．To stress the importance of educational backgrounds.其次节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

And yes, it’s good to get along with your teacher because , in general, it’s smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.But really, there's one important reason why you should get along with your teacher. Kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but also they're more fortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best 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 learning or school issues.As a kid in elementary or middle school, you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're able to take in lots of new and exciting information. Apart from that, you’re ableto think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and, in most cases, he or she is excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they want to be teachers in the first place!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.24. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about_______.A. new material learned from teachersB. ways to develop relationship with teachersC. benefits in getting along with teachersD. avoiding problems happening around kids25. What’s the writer’s attitude towards getting along with teachers?A. Doubtful.B. Objective.C. Uncaring.D. Favorable26. What can we know from the passage?A. Kids are unable to understand lots of exciting information.B. Kids are bullied while municating with others in school.C. Most kids will leave the class when not doing quite well with their teachers.D. Most kids will leave the class when not satisfied with teacher’s teaching methods.27. The passage is most probably taken from ________.A. children’s literatureB. an education magazineC. a science reportD. an advertisementCWalt Whitman was born in 1819 in Long Island, New York. Whitman received most of his education outside of the classroom. At the age of eleven, he worked in a law office as an office boy where he became interested in reading. He was soon reading the works of famous authors like William Shakespeare and Homer, and was well on his way to being one of America’s most well-known poets.By the time Whitman was seventeen years old, he had already worked as a printer’s learner, a worker, and a teacher. Though he disliked teaching, he excelled in the profession, developing a friendly relationship with his students; he even allowed them to address him by his first name. He also developed fresh teaching techniques and learning games to help his students with spelling and maths. In his early twenties, however, he gave up teaching to pursue(追求) a full-time career as a journalist and poet.When Walt Whitman first appeared as a poet, his arrival onto the American literary scene was met with controversy(争议). His first collection of poems, Leaves of Grass, was so unusual that no mercial(商业的) publisher would print the work. In 1855 Whitman published, at his own expense, the first edition of his collection of twelve poems.Whitman’s poetic style was unmon in the sense that he wrote poems in a form called parallelism(对比法) , in which his goal was to copy the flow of the sea and the quickly-passing nature of human emotion. A mon theme in Whitman’s poetry is self-realization. In his work, Whitman moves from conventional patterns of rhyme to create a unique rhythm and a multi-layered, but truly American voice.“Although Whitman was considered a revolutionary by many, there is little doubt he loved his country deeply.” In his writing, he used slang(俚语)and various images, or voices, to create a sense of national unity.For Whitman, the “proof of a poet is that his country absorbs him as affectionately as he has absorbed it”. Whitman has undoubtedly bee a part of the cultural history and image of America.28. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about _______.A. Whitman’s educationB. Whitman’s early careerC. how Whitman became a poetD. why Whitman’s poems were not popular29. When Whitman first appeared as a poet, _______.A. he received a warm weleB. his literary road was not easyC. he became famous for his unusual styleD. his poetic style was copied by other people30. What was Whitman’s greatest literary contribution?A. He expressed human emotion in his writing.B. He showed the flow of the sea in his poems.C. He used slang to show his love for his country.D. He created a unique rhythm and an American voice.31. The last paragraph is written in a tone of ______.A. regretB. encouragementC. praiseD. disappointmentDWhen people reunite with their loved ones，it’s usually all extremely happy moment．But what is their most mon response to seeing them again It may seem strange，but most of the time they break down in tears．Now a group of psychologists from Yale University say they have found the reason why，and that crying tears of joy may well be the body’s way of keeping emotiona l balance．They seem to take place when people are overtaken by strong positive emotions，and people who do this seem to recover better from those strong emotions，”Oriana Aragon，the lead researcher said．Aragon and her fellow psychologists looked at hundreds of participants’ emotional responses to different things，including happy reunions and cute babies．Many participants said they would react in a negative or aggressive way to the positive things——to cry at happy moments and want to pinch(捏)a cute baby’s fac e or even tell them “I want to eat you up!”But then researchers found that these people were able to calm down from strong emotions more quickly．There are many other examples of times when people respond to a positive experience with a negative emotional reaction．At an exciting concert，fans scream at their idols(偶像)．People who have just had a big lottery win are often in floods of tears．“These findings advance our understanding of how people express and control their emotions，which is importantly related to mental and physical health，the quality of relationships with others，and even how well people work together．”said Aragon．32．What have professors from Yale University found in their research?A．The reason why people cry with tears．B．Strong negative feelings are useful to people．C．Crying tears of joy helps to balance emotions．D．People recover slowly from strong emotions．33．What does the underlined “they” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?A．Strong positive emotions． B. Times when people cry tears of joy．C．Participants’ emotional responses．D. Times when people reunite with friends．34．Which of the following agrees with the findings of the research?A．Kissing a cute baby．B．Crying at a failure．C．Crying at good news．D．Laughing at happy reunions．35．Where does the passage most likely e from?A．A science fiction novel．B．An adolescent literature book．C．A popular biology book．D．A psychological science journal．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
