It’s also one of the highest paid part－time jobs for college students.Proofreader (校对员)Hourly rate：$17．84Proofreaders must be able to find the errors and correct them of course. If you think you can do that, then this is a great opportunity to earn more than $17 per hour.

They went to Beijing, Xi’an and Chengdu.In a speech at Peking University, Mrs Obama encouraged students to study abroad. “It’s not enough to get good grades in school,” she said in the speech. “It is better to travel 10,000 miles than to read 10,000 books. The experiences in other countries help make our life succ essful. By learning each other’s languages and by showing such curiosity (好奇) and respect (尊重) for each other’s cultures, you are building bridges of understanding and bonds of friendship,” she said. The US is the top destination (目的地) for Chinese students. More than 200,000 Chinese students are now studying in the US. In 2009, US President Barack Obama announced (宣布) his goal of sending100,000 students to China. Since then, more than 68,000 US students have come to China.

2023-2024学年浙江省温州市高二下学期期中英语检测试卷(附答案)
2023-2024学年浙江省温州市高二下学期期中英语检测试卷一、阅读理解1、 A AConsidering studying in the US? Concerned about expense? Let's explore strategies for reducing economic pressure.Finding scholarships, as many US institutions offer scholarships to international students. Make use of search engines like Fastweb or for comprehensive scholarship searches. Scholarships can be competitive due to high demand. However, a large number of opportunities exist. Tips for securing scholarships. •Academic excellence: Strong academic performance is highly regarded by universities. •Extracurricular involvement: Participation in sports, music or community service distinguishes applicants. •Seek guidance: Teachers or advisers can offer valuable advice.Alternative cost-reduction measures •On-campus employment: International students can work on campus, providing both income and networking opportunities. •Community colleges: Start studies at a community college, which is often more affordable, before transferring to a university for degree completion. Host family accommodation: Living with a US family can be a cost-effective alternative to university housingFinancial options: leans and aid Loans（贷款）: Some financial institutions loans to international students. Financial aid: Certain universities provide financial assistance to international students.Practical budgeting Home cooking: Preparing meals at home is more economical than dining out. •Second-hand purchases: Choose used books and fumiture to save on expenses •Public transportation: Take buses and trains instead of owning a car for more cost-effective travel.(1) What is an advantage in guaranteeing scholarships?A. A great gift in art.B. Excellent academic performance.C. Active participation in class activities.D. A good command of using search engines.(2) Based on the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. Community college fees are relatively high.B. Owning a car is the cheapest way to get around.C. International students have access to financial aid in some universities.D. On-campus accommodation costs much less than living with a host family.(3) Which section of a newper may the text come from?A. Education.B. Economy.C. Transportation.D. Travel.2、 B Are you an "I person" or an "E person"? These two personality labels in particular are widely discussed online. They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. There are 16 personalities in all, of which "I" and "E" refer to "introverted" and "extroverted", respectively. Even if someone is typically quiet, many online discussions suggest that an "I person" can still act outgoing at times. For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an "E" person. According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called "masking". That is hiding your true personality in specific situations. "Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so, " wrote the MasterClass website. Thinking on this, I may actually be the kind of person that these people are discussing. Most times, I just wish to make the atmosphere more interesting and exciting and show people that I'm easy to get along with. But deep down, I mostly enjoy being alone and quiet Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone's personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that a "P person" doesn't like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, "You don't seem like a "Pperson'". "Why? " she asked back. "Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do? " It was then that I realized that I'd taken the result too seriously. The MBTI personality test may show something you don't know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that's all it is-for fun. Knowing someone's MBTI result doesn't mean you really know this person.(1) An “I person" tends to ___.A. reflect on problems aloneB. enjoy gatherings with friendsC. be active in social situationsD. try to chat with complete strangers(2) Why does an "I person" act like an "E person" sometimes?A. Because he/she wants to be like others.B. Because he/she needs a sense of belonging.C. Because he/she dislikes to embarrass others.D. Because he/she is actually an "person" deep inside.(3) What does the writer mean by saying "I went too far" in paragraph 5?A. She pushed her sister too much.B. She failed to help her sister follow her plan.C. She believed blindly the result of the personality test.D. She discouraged her sister to make a detailed travel plan.(4) What does the writer think about the MBTI?A. It is supposed to be strictly followed.B. It tells you everything about your personality.C. It's an interesting way to start a chat with a stranger.D. It's a reliable approach to telling what type of people a person belongs to.3、 C When opening certain mobile apps, users often find disruptive （有干扰性的） open-app advertisements that impact their experience. Open-app advertisements are advertisements that appear in between contents or during transition screens, such as when an app is loading the next page. Some ofthese advertisements can redirect users to another app if the phone is shaken, causing a lot of frustration for consumers. These open-app advertisements function as gateways and become more common during online shopping festivals, redirecting users to shopping platforms such as Taobao and JD. Most smartphones have a gyroscope sensor （陀螺仪传感器） to detect shaking, leading to unintentional redirection. Many users not only find it annoying to find themselves on an advertisements page, but also have trouble disabling the gyroscope feature since sometimes their phones lack the choice to do so to avoid this issue. In response, authorities have introduced detailed regulations on shaking advertisements gateways. A regulation published in December 2022 outlines specific rules for the design of "shake-to-open" advertisements. It says that these advertisements can only be "clicked through" if the phone's rotation angle exceeds 35 degrees, with an action time longer than three seconds. Additionally, in February, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology emphasized that pop-up or open-app advertisements should not disrupt users' experiences. A regulation introduced in May states that advertisements must include a clear button for users to close them. Government enforcement of these regulations presents challenges, as the number of apps and developers is great. However, this should not be an exeuse for internet platforms to break the rules, as this behavior causes far more harm than good. A survey by the Jiangsu Consumer Council showed that over 90 percent of users strongly dislike open-app advertisements, feeling that their rights are being threatened. While these advertisements might lead to more clicks, the fact is that the advertisements may harm the credibility of the platforms that the advertisements lead to and weaken the users' willingness to use the platforms. Platforms can achieve a mutually beneficial （互惠互利） solution only if they respect users' choices and provide suitable advertisements that users are wiling to accept.(1) What does the first paragraph mainly talk about concerning open-app ads?A. The benefits of open-app ads for online shopping platforms.B. The lack of regulations governing traditional advertising methods.C. The effectiveness of open-app ads in increasing users' engagement.D. The negative impact of disruptive open-app ads on users' experience.(2) What was regulated in December 2022 about "shake-to-open" ads?A. They can be clicked through without any restrictions.B. They can only be clicked through on certain conditions.C. They should have a clear button for users to close them.D. They should appear for only three seconds on the screen.(3) How can platforms reach a win-win solution as mentioned in the last paragraph?A. By ignoring users' choices.B. By respecting users' preferences.C. By presenting more irrelevant ads.D. By flooding users with more profitable ads.(4) What is the best title of the passage?A. The Preferences of Shopping Platforms.B. The Challenges of Online Shopping Festivals.C. The Role of Advertisements in Improving Users' Experience.D. The Battle against Disruptive Advertisements on Mobile Apps.4、D Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD, 创伤后应激障碍) is a mental disorder that develops among people who have experienced or observed traumatic things such as wars, disasters or other violent events. At the heart of PTSD is a memory that can not be controlled. It can affect the everyday lives of its sufferers in forms such as flashbacks, nightmares and anxiety. A new study done by researchers from Yale University and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City suggests that patients with PTSD process their traumatic memories differently than regular memories. The researchers did brain scans of 28 PTSD patients. They asked the patients to listen to recorded narrations of their own memories. Some of the recorded memories were neutral, some were simply "sad", and some were traumatic. They found that when the patients listened to the "sad" memories, the hippocampus （海马体）, which is responsible for forming memories, was activated. But when they listened to the traumatic memories, a different area, called the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC, 后扣带回皮质), was engaged The PCC is not a memory region. Instead, it regulates internal experiences, such as daydreaming. The more severe PTSD symptoms are, the more active the PCC is. "The brain doesn't look like it is in a state of memory, it looks like it is in a state of present experience, " Daniela Schiller, one of the authors of the study, told The New York Times. That means people with PTSD feel as though they're experiencing the traumatic event again in the present moment, rather than thinking back on it like a typical memory. The new finding might hold hope for new PTSD therapies （治疗）. Future therapies are expected to focus on helping PTSD patients returm their traumatic memories to the hippocampus so that they can treat them as regular and non-disruptive （非破坏性的） memories. Changing the ways of thinking could help the brain reduce the feeling of immediate threat caused by trauma, according to llan Harpaz-Rotem, one of the paper's authors.(1) What does the underlined word "flashbacks" in paragraph I mean?A. Rapid movements of eyes.B. Loud sound in the distance.C. Repeated upsetting memories.D. Bright lights suddenly appearing.(2) How do people with PTSD recall traumatic events according to Daniela Schiller?A. They treat them as regular memories.B. They can easily control these memories.C. They struggle to remember traumatic events clearly.D. They vividly relive traumatic events as if they are happening at present.(3) What is the author's attitude towards the new finding?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Unclear.D. Doubtful.(4) What is the purpose of the passage?A. To analyze the reasons for traumatic events.B. To inform readers of the symptoms of PTSD patients.C. To advocate patients' participation in future therapies.D. To present a research finding and its potential application.二、七选五5、 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。

Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However,I didn‟t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.When I first studied English, I was told to say, ”I am fine” when people say “How are you?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good” or “I‟m tired”. One day, someone greeted me with “What‟s up?” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn‟t know what to say.Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan(晒黑). However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter”.I was also surprised by how hardworking US students are.In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that‟s it.

My Friends in the US4You may have known several kinds of police, traffic police, and street police. But have you ever heard of energy-saving(节能) policemen ?A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of their aims is to make sure that these sites have set their air conditioning(空调) no cooler than 26℃.They also set up a special phone line so that people can tell them whichbuildings fail to follow the rule.“If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26 ℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in one s ummer. That‟s one-third of all the usage of the city in the season,” said a TV advertisement.Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiangsu Province, are going to follow Beijing‟s steps in setting up a similar police team.As one of the fastest developing countries, China is using a lot of energy. This has a great effect on the country‟s environment and limited energy.From 1986 to 2005, the country experienced 20 warm winters continuously. Numbers show that Chinese cities have to spend billion of yuan solving(解决) environmental problems every year.At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution. It aims to reduce energy usage by 20％and increase renewable energy up to 10％from 7％by 2010.To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy-saving technology and productions. Environment-friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps collect used bottles, have attracted lots of attention.“We w ant to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find effective ways to do it in our daily lives,” said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.14. The job of the energy-saving policemen is ______________ .A. to set the air conditioning coolerB. to check the use of energy in public placesC. to set up a special phone lineD. to make sure that more energy will be produced15. Beijing will use ________ million kilowatt-hours electricity in one summer.A. 1200B. 800C. 400D. 13316.

I‟d like to give you a wish. It‟s my pleasure to satisfy you,” said the Luck Fairy. “A wish?” Fred and Doris asked, standing hand in hand and smiling at each other. Then Fred answered, “Thanks, Luck Fai ry. We‟re living a happy life.”We are no longer young, but we still work in the field from morning to night every day. We enjoy ourselves,” said Doris.“You work very hard but you make so little money. Would you like some gold coins to buy a comfortable house?” asked the Luck Fairy. “Oh no, my dear Luck Fairy. We love our small old house. We have lived here for a long time,” answered Fred, without a moment‟s hesitation (犹豫). “We are happy to work and live together all the time. That‟s enough,” Doris agreed.The couple (夫妇) were quite different from other people the Luck Fairy had ever met. She appreciated(欣赏) th em very much. She disappeared, saying, “I wish you a happy life forever.”Many years later, the couple lived happily as usual It seemed to others that they were the happiest in the world.Satisfaction is a kind of feeling that needs to be experienced from inside. It…s very important to be satisfied with what you‟ve got If you enjoy the pleasure of the simple life, good luck will follow you.根据短文内容判断正、误。
大学的意义(英语作文)
Some people think studyingin a university is worthwhile only because you canget a degree. There is no denying that we will get a degree or diploma which may help us satisfy some companies' interview qualification. But is it the degree thatmakes studying in a university worthwhile? I think what we obtain from our university is far more than it.In the first place, we go to the university for the purpose that we will get further development by studying skills which meet the need of our career in thefuture. After almost one year's study, I realize that studyingin a university is totallydifferent from senior high. More free time, more choices of courses, less pressure. Study skills are strengthened by arranging time reasonably and make wise decisions. It is not what we have learned but the way we learn that matters. Welearn how to learn in a university, which will benefit us in the future.In the second place, as most of us all, entering into university means a start of living independently. Far away from home, without the care of parents, we are forced to live in dormitory with 3 strange faces. Faced with problems, difficulties, depression andfrustration in life, we must learn todeal with themon our own. The experience of collective life teaches us how to communicate, understand and tolerate with each other. These things are needed in our whole life.In the last place, the university, a place where brilliant students gather from all over the country, provides us with more opportunities to show ourselves. Cooperating with other people and learning from each other help to reinforce our cohesion and leadership. These things are valued by our society. And in that process, we harvest friendships and even first love. They are worth treasuring forever. Maybe after dozens of years, the diploma will become yellow and old, but these happy days we spent together in a university will be still clear enough to let us never forget.In a word, studying in a university not only brings us a degree but also a experience, through which we obtain a lot and benefit a lot. Based on the abovepoints, I disagree that studying in a university is worthwhile only because you can get a degree...。

Studying in the US: Four Kinds of Financial Aid
This is the VOA Special English Education Report.
This week in our Foreign Student Series, we look at financial aid that comes in ships. Scholarships, fellowships and assistantships.
But first we talk about financial aid of another kind: grants. A grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid.
One of our examples this week is the
University of Missouri-Columbia, known as
Mizzou (pronounced mah-ZOO). Mizzou is a
public university with more than one thousand
five hundred international students this
school year. The total student population is
more than thirty thousand.
Mizzou has a grant program for international
Memorial Stadium at Mizzou students. The Curator's Grant-in-Aid program
is for those who get good grades and take part in university activities. Graduate students who receive a grant get nine free credits to take courses. Undergraduates receive between one thousand and five thousand dollars in support.
Students must have attended Mizzou for a year before they can receive a grant. And they must reapply for the awards each semester.
Some grants are called scholarships or fellowships. Scholarships are for undergraduates; fellowships are for graduate students. Awards may be based on financial need or on grades, talents or other requirements. The Global Heritage Scholarship at Mizzou, for example, is only for international undergraduates whose mother or father graduated from there. The scholarship pays seven thousand five hundred dollars a year for tuition. Full tuition is currently almost nineteen thousand dollars. Tuition is about the same at another public university, the University of Arizona in Tucson. It offers an undergraduate scholarship for international students who earned high marks in high school. The program is open to all foreign students who have been admitted to the university. Winners receive between two thousand and ten thousand dollars a year to help pay tuition.
Seventy international students are currently receiving the scholarship. The University of Arizona has more than two thousand international students this academic year. The school had close to forty thousand students during the fall term.
Assistantships are jobs paid with money or free classes. Graduate assistants help professors for about twenty hours a week. They may teach undergraduates, grade papers and tests, and assist with research.
And that's the VOA Special English Education Report, written by Nancy Steinbach. The earlier reports in our Foreign Student Series are at . I'm Steve Ember.。
