江苏省重点高级中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月考试英语试卷(含答案)
江苏省重点高级中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月考试英语试卷（含答案）江苏省南菁高级中学高二英语10月考试卷I 阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共37.5分）ADubai's Museum of the Future, named as one of the 14 most beautiful museums on the planet in a list by National Geographic magazine this July, opened in February 2023. It promises visitors an immersive (沉浸式的) experience that uses technology to represent art and encourages guests to imagine what the future could be like.What are the exhibitions insideFive of the seven floors are main exhibition spaces, each designed to look like a futuristic film set. The museum takes visitors on a journey to the year 2071 and creates scenes of what the future could be like in topics such as outer space resource development, ecosystems and bioengineering, health, wellness and spirituality.How to get ticketsEntry to the museum costs Dh150, but is free for pre-school children, persons with disabilities and citizens aged 60 and over. Half price for students.The tickets are on sale on the museum's website www.motf.ae.General rules of the museum● Visitors are allowed to take photos and videos for personal use, except in the exhibitions that are labeled as the “special exhibition galleries”. Flash photography is not allowed.● Selfie (自拍) sticks are not permitted.● Guests can bring their own food that can be eaten in garden areas. No food or drink is allowed in any exhibition.● There are restrooms on each floor of the museum.● Free Wi-Fi is available.1. Which topic is covered in the exhibitions inside the museumA. Magazines.B. Film.C. Travelling.D. Fitness.2. How much should a young couple with a primary school kid pay for their ticketsA. Dh150.B. Dh300.C. Dh375.D.Dh450.3. What is forbidden in the museumA. Accessing the Internet of the museum.B. Having some bread in the garden areas.C. Taking selfies in the special exhibition galleriesD. Videoing the regular exhibition to share with friends.BThey talk about the straw that broke the camel’s back, but really it should be the password that wiped out my memory bank.I was going along fine with instant recall of my bank PIN (密码)，my mobile phone number and the date of my cousin's birthday before I downloaded a gas station payment app for its new customer discount. It asked me to create a password. When I typed in “gas 1”, it was rejected for not being complex enough. I tried again: “IHateHearlessOilCompanies@”. But that was too long and didn’t include “at least one number”. But here is the thing: as soon as I added the fresh password into my memory, I instantly forgot all the others. My brain had hit its limit for passwords. I now know nothing.I had entered some passwords in a notebook. Of course, I didn't write down the actual passwords, in case it fell into the wrong hands. Instead, I masked them in a way that only a family member could figure them out. For example, I combined my bank PIN with our postal code, then added it to a list of phone numbers. It would fool even Albert Einstein.Maybe we need a system like the one we use to remember people’s names. You know, you form an association between a person's characteristics and their name by whispering “Skinny George, Skinny George” in heart after meeting them. The risk is that, upon seeing him, you’ll burst out the phrase. “Skinny George” might not mind, but it's possible “Boring Betty” will. As for remembering passwords as you change them, you could simply use the first and last letters of your favorite singer's greatest hits, together with the year of their release.Maybe I’ll try that one out--but only after describing the system in the notebook. Then I'll hide it in a place so secret that I’ll never remember where it is.4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphsA. He fell for a marketing trick.B. He was driven mad by passwords.C. He had a serious memory disorder.D. He was rejected by the gas station.5. By mentioning Albert Einstein in paragraph 3, the author intends to ______.A. show how secure his passwords wereB. challenge the intelligence of scientistsC. prove the uselessness of his passwordsD. promote a more scientific password system6. What is the author’s purpose in writing the textA. To encourage readers to use password notebooks.B. To recommend a password-remembering method.C. To complain about the trouble caused by passwords.D. To point out the importance of using complex passwords.7. What is the tone of the textA. Inspiring.B. Indifferent.C. Humorous.D. Serious.CNo one likes interruption. We are born to seek balance and order. No matter what it is that you are doing, being interrupted involves a forceful stop midway and then having to re-enter your previous state, sometimes with great difficulty.Popular belief has it that interruption breaks the flow of your thinking and affects productivity negatively, and so it is advisable that you have an uninterrupted session of intensive work before your next break. However, a Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, might tell you otherwise.The connection between interruption and memory came to her attention when she was dining in a restaurant. She noticed how the waitresses had an amazing memory of the detailed orders yet to be paid for, but scarce memory of the orders that were already completed.Back in her laboratory, she conducted studies in which subjects were required to complete various puzzles. Some of the subjects were interrupted during the tasks. All the subjects were then asked to describe what tasks they had done. It turns out that adults remembered the interrupted tasks 90% better than the completed tasks, and that children were even more likely to recall the uncompleted tasks. In other words, uncompleted tasks will stay on your mind until you finish them!In comparison to tasks that were already finished and ones that we haven’t even started, half-done projects are given the priority in themental to-do list our brains sketch out for us. Zeigarnik described this finding in her doctoral thesis (论文) in the late 1920s, which was later called Zeigarnik effect.One possible explanation is that with interrupted tasks, we are desperate for their closure to reclaim a sense of balance. Finishing them also means that we can finally clear up the mental backlog (积压的工作) and give the space to more upcoming tasks.Zeigarnik’s effect can be found everywhere, especially used in media and advertising. Have you ever wondered why cliffhangers work so well or why you just can’t get yourself to stop watching that series on Netflix Ernest Hemingway once said about writing a novel, “It is the wait until the next day that is hard to get through.” So next time, when you are interrupted, appreciate it and take advantage of it to promote your productivity.What is a common practice to finish a taskA. Working in a focused period.B. Working with occasional breaks.C. Working with a stop midway.D. Working in an interrupted session. What is the finding of the Zeigarnik’s experimentA. Interruption recalls details.B. Interruption betters memory.C. Interruption disturbs balance.D. Interruption reduces productivity.10. Which of the following is an example of the application of Zeigarnik’s effectA. Fashion shows.B. Online news.C. Talk shows.D. TV series.11.What is the possible reason behind Zeigarnik’s effectA. The desire for balance.B. The physical backlog.C. The outside pressure.D. The upcoming tasks.DMosquitoes carry malaria (疟疾), which kills thousands of people each year. Now some researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into partners in the fight against the disease. For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling mosquito populations. “But that approach is temporary,” says Anthony James, a professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, “Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound.”Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria.To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It’s passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. “If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease,” he says. But makingmosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR. They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria, engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host. James’ team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be conducted on an island or in another isolated location.But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists. “There’s no need to engineer a mosquito,” says Dana Perls, senior program manager for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗) against the disease. “Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can’t be recalled once it’s released into the wild ” she asks.What can we know from the second and third paragraphsMosquitoes reproduce quickly.Mosquitoes depart from malaria.Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.Mosquitoes’ populations are under control.According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria pathogenMice. B. Parasites. C. Mosquitoes. D. Gene-edited mosquitoes. What is environmentalists’ attitude toward this new approach Tolerant. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Disapproving.What is the best title for the textLimiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito PopulationsControlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes’ genesCuring Malaria with Gene-edited MosquitoesPreventing Malaria with a new vaccineII 七选五（每小题2.5分，共12.5分）Does your cat or dog suddenly get a burst of energy and perform athletic features around the house Welcome to the world of zoomies—intense periods of high-energy activity including running, jumping and rolling. You might see post-bath zoomies, midnight zoomies and out of-nowhere zoomies. They have a lot in common with play. 16 If the zoomies are occurring as part of your animal’s regular play routine, this implies your animal is enjoying themselves. We don't yet know if zoomies are more likely to occur at certain times of the day, or more in some than others. 17Zoomies are mentioned a lot, but there is also little scientific research onwhat causes them, or how often they occur. Yet some conclusions can be drawn from experience. 18 In dogs, this is commonly a play bow- where the dog appears to “bow” to another to signal it is eager to play. In cats, an invitation may include repeatedly rolling over. If this is the case, your animal is likely experiencing excitement and a desire to interact with you.19 Context is key. You should consult with your vet (兽医) if your dog or cat is displaying the behaviour (in particular, circling) for too long. It might be a sign of a repetitive behaviour disorder. If you struggle to distract or stop the behaviour, or if it is resulting in injuries, seek professional assistance.Even if you don't get the call of the zoomies yourself, take a moment to enjoy and even join your dog or cat in having fun. 20A. Sometimes we all need to run wild.B. This makes zoomies a whole load of fun.C. It is our duty to figure out what they want exactly.D. Nothing is more annoying than a midnight zoomie.E. However, we do consider them evidence of a pretty good mood.F. Sometimes, however, zoomies may be a sign of a medical condition.G. In dogs and cat, zoomies can include an invitation for others to join.III 完形填空（每小题1分，共15分）Rebecka Peterson, a high school math teacher, is the nation’s 2023Teacher of the Year.

offers great views of beaches.D.It's not well-known to foreigners.BIs the end of homework near?As new powerful artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT take the Internet by storm, teachers concerned with AI-driven cheating are questioning their teaching and assessment methods.ChatGPT,the most powerful AI language model ever developed by the company OpenAI,remembers the thread of your dialogue,using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses.Deriving its answers from huge volumes of information on the Internet,it is fine-tuned using both supervised and reinforcement learning.It is capable of generating natural-sounding text on demand in just a few seconds.The quality of the copy it produces is sufficient to impress teachers in secondary and higher education,and even researchers.The use of AI tools in copy-writing has sparked an outcry around the world.In the United States,public schools in New York and Seattle have decided to block ChatGPT from their devices and WiFi networks.In France,the prestigious Sciences Po university in Paris has also just announced a strict ban on its use.But experts question whether bans like these are really effective.On one hand,students will always be able to access tools like ChatGPT through other means than school devices.On the other hand,some question the relevance of blocking access to a digital tool whose use is likely togrow in the professional world in the coming years.Amelie Cordier,a lecturer in artificial intelligence at Lyon University,notes that students haven’t waited for ChatGPT to try to escape the chore of homework—whether by photocopying the library encyclopedia,copy-pasting content from Wikipedia or enlisting their parents’help.“What is ultimately very important in the learning process is not so much the subject on which you learn,it’s the methodology that you learn to develop around that subject,”Cordier said.24.Why does the author raise a question in paragraph1?A.To arouse the readers’interest.B.To show the popularity of ChatGPT.C.To present the creativity of artificial intelligence.D.To reveal the negative effects of artificial intelligence.25.What does paragraph2mainly tell us about ChatGPT?A.Its language model.B.Its working theory.C.Its design inspiration.D.Its development process.26.Which of the following is probably the reason for the experts’question?A.Students can always employ AI tools in other ways.B.Teachers and researchers are impressed by ChatGPT.C.The bans have been announced only in the US and France.D.AI tools have already been widely applied in professional fields.27.What plays a critical role in learning according to Cordier?A.Parents’help.B.The system of methods.C.The library encyclopedia.D.The content from Wikipedia.COne school night this month I quietly approached Alexander,my15-year-old son,and patted him on the cheek in a manner I hoped would seem casual.Alex knew better,sensing by my touch,which remained just a moment too long,that I was sneaking(偷偷地做)a touch of the beard that had begun to grow near his ears.Suddenly he went stormily to his computer screen.That,and an angry look of his eyes,told me more forcefully than words:Mom,you are seen through!I realized I committed a silly behavior:not showing respect for my teenager’s personal space.“The average teenager has strong feelings about his privacy,”said two young women experts.Ms.Frankel and Ms.Fox,both17,are the authors of Breaking the Code,a new book that seeks to bridge the generational divide between parents and adolescents.It is being promoted by its publisher as the first self-help guide by teenagers for their parents,a kind of Kids Are From Mars,Parents Are From Venus that de-mystifies the language and actions of teenagers.Personally,I welcomed insights teenagers from any qualified experts,and that included the authors.The most common missteps in interacting with teenagers,they instructed me,result from the conflict between parents maintaining their right to know what goes on under their roof and teenagers striving to guard their privacy.When a child is younger, they write,every decision centers around the parents.But now,as Ms.Fox told me,“often your teenager is in this circle that doesn’t include you.”Ms.Fox and Ms.Frankel acknowledge that teenagers can be quick to interpret their parents’remarks as negative or authoritative and respond with aggressiveness that masks their defenselessness.“What we want above all is your approval,”they write.“Don’t forget,no matter how much we act as if we don’t care what you say,we believe the things you say about us.”28.In the second paragraph,Kids Are From Mars,Parents Are From Venus is mentioned because______.A.it disapproves of opinions in Breaking the CodeB.it shares the same theme with Breaking the CodeC.it employs the same language style as Breaking the CodeD.it ranks right after Breaking the Code among self-help guides29.With their book,Ms.Frankel and Ms.Fox______.A.declare teenagers’rightsB.remind parents of teenagers’misstepsC.help parents know teenagers betterD.arouse much disagreement from the public30.What often leads to conflicts between parents and teenagers based on the passage?A.Teenagers’defense of their privacy.B.Parents’striving to instruct teenagers.C.Teenagers’refusal to follow experts’advice.D.Parents’dislike in teenagers’attitudes to life.31.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.Teenagers always rush to judgement on others.B.Parents often seek to create an authoritative image.C.Parents’opinions about teenagers matter much to them.D.Teenagers feature good comprehension and defenselessness.DIt’s2076and the skies are looking decidedly milky.On windy plains and in parts of the seas that have been turned over to wind farms,a different kind of tower has been built alongside the turbines(涡轮).They take in CO2out of the atmosphere.Vast parcels of land have been given over to forest.Trees are grown,harvested and burned for energy in power plants that don’t let CO2escape to the atmosphere.Instead,emissions are captured and driven underground.Powdered minerals are put into the water to absorb CO2and reduce ocean acidification.All these technologies are a desperate action to reverse more than two centuries of greenhouse gas emissions.But they are not entirely up to the task and,anyway,we are still releasing greenhouse gases.“I think it’s very likely that in60years we’ll be using both technologies,”says John Shepherd of the University of Southampton,UK.He is referring to the two flavors of geoengineering:absorbing CO2out of the air and using a sunshade to reflect some of the sun’s rays back out into space.There is no denying that climate talks are going too slowly and not so smoothly.Even if industrial emissions were to drop rapidly—a big if—some sections pose an intractable problem.We have no real replacement for aeroplane fuel and feeding people demands intensive agriculture,which accounts for a quarter of global emissions.Computer models suggest there will be winners and losers.While a sunshade could lower global average temperatures to pre-industrial levels,there would be regional differences.Northern Europe,Canada,Siberia and the poles would remain warmer than they were,and temperatures over the oceans would be cooler.Global warming is predicted to make wet regions wetter and dry ones drier.Models suggest a sunshade would correct this,but,again,not in a uniform way.Shepherd fears all this will feed into international arguments.He imagines some kind of global council where governments seek a climate that meets their needs.Some might prefer a slightly warmer temperature,for tourism or agriculture.But nations whose coral reefs(珊瑚礁)draw in visitors will probably want more CO2absorbing technologies.In spite of all these concerns,most scientists hold that revolutionary technology and people’s awakening can shine a light on solutions in ways that are impossible now.There is undoubtedly a long way to go when we address problems facing mankind,but we can always anticipate something.25.What is described in the first paragraph?A.Future scenery and farming methods.B.The development of transport technology.C.The serious pollution problem in the very near future.D.Future technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.26.The word“intractable”in paragraph4most probably means“______”.A.solvableB.untypicalC.trickyD.existing27.It can be inferred from the passage that______.A.climate talks haven’t achieved the expected resultsB.industrial emissions will decrease greatly in60yearsC.technologies to reduce CO2emission aren’t used properly for nowD.sunshades outshine intensive agriculture at capturing CO2emissions28.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Effective CO2absorbing technologies have come into wide use.B.With greenhouse gas reduced,global warming can be addressed.C.Future climate will improve with human efforts but threats still remain.D.Future climate will restore to a normal state with advanced technology.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)The Adoption OptionAdopting a pet is rapidly becoming the preferred option for many people who want to add an animal companion. ____36____An affordable choice.It’s true that many people are happy to part with thousands of dollars for purebred and“designer”crossbred dogs and cats,but rescue pets have a lot going for them and can be more affordable to purchase.Homeless animals can make wonderful pets.People often assume that dogs and cats end up in shelters because they’re unwanted or badly behaved.There are many reasons owners may need to rehome their pet—divorce,lack of suitable accommodation,or the time and money needed to care for a dog.____37____Adult animals have benefits.Generally,if you decide to buy a pet from breeders,only very young animals are available.____38____And there are many benefits from adopting a more mature dog or cat.They will already be desexed, microchipped and vaccinated,so you will have fewer start-up costs.Most importantly what you see is what you get-a young animal’s behavior may still be developing,whereas an older animal’s personality and behavior should be evident,so no surprises.____39____You should only adopt a dog or cat from a reputable shelter or rescue group.A behavioral trainer will assess the temperament(脾气)of every dog and cat before they’re put up for adoption.The staff should ask you lots of questions about your lifestyle so they can advise which dogs and cats will best suit your family.Ongoing behavior and training advice should be available,and you should be able to return the pet if things don’t work out.To keep in mind.____40____For example,you need to think carefully about how you will care for it—there’s a lot of responsibility associated with managing rescue animals appropriately.The costs,the necessary space and the age of people in your home are also important factors you should consider.A.Choose an appropriate animal from a reliable source.B.But shelters have a wide range of pets for you to choose from.C.Thus,some dogs and cats become lost,are not identified and are never claimed.D.Similar to many things,the price of owning a pet has been increasing.E.There are lots of online searches for possible pet adopters to choose an ideal pet.F.It’s important for you to only select a pet that will suit your lifestyle.G.You should take into account the amount of exercise your pet will need.第三部分语言运用第一节完形填空Traveling with a toddler(幼儿)can

江苏省靖江高级中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
江苏省靖江高级中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The daughter of a romantic poet and occasional freedom fighter, Ada Lovelace had a famous but absent father. She never knew Lord Byron, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divorced her mother Isabella Milbanke Byron and left to fight in the Greek War of Independence. In an effort to prevent Ada from developing her father’s unpredictable temper, Isabella decided that her daughter should devote her life to study.Ada studied hard despite the fact that society did not encourage women pursuing interests in science. Her life changed when she met inventor Charles Babbage at a party. As he demonstrated a working section of his mechanical calculator, Ada was taken in by how it worked and wanted to know more. Impressed by the 17-year-old’s obvious passion, Babbage became her tutor. Ada married in 1835 and became a mother, but she continued to take an active interest in study, socialising in intellectual circles with the likes of Charles Dickens and Michael Faraday.Ada stayed in contact with Babbage, who in 1837 had proposed a new machine, the analytical engine. In 1843, Ada was asked to translate a French text written by engineer Luigi Menabrea about Babbage’s new design. After completing the translation, Ada was encouraged by Babbage to write her own notes on his work.After nine months of hard work, Ada presented Babbage with a detailed list of notes that was three times longer than the original article. In her calculations, Ada wrote what are considered the first ever computer algorithms to be used in a new type of machine. She essentially provided the first ideas for computer programming in what was a groundbreaking proposal on the potential of computers.Ada died of cancer aged only 36 and her work was largely recognised until the 1950s when her notes were republished. In 1979 the US Department of Defence named a programming language ‘Ada’ in her honour.1．What can we learn about Ada from the first paragraph?A．She had a devoted father.B．Her mother raised her up alone.C．She had an unpredictable temper.D．Her parents divorced before her birth.2．Who aroused her interest in mathematics and computer engineering?A．Charles Dickens.B．Michael Faraday.C．Luigi Menabrea.D．Charles Babbage.3．Which words can best describe Ada?A．Modest and outgoing.B．Talented and diligent.C．Generous and considerate.D．Determined and independent. 4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Ada’s notes were published only once.B．Ada named a programming language after herself.C．Ada earned a reputation nearly a century after her death.D．Ada’s work was largely recognized when she was alive.The sales advertisements tempt (诱惑): Blue-light-blocking glasses are supposed to protect eyes from the effects of short-wave length light emitting from our smartphones, computer screens and LED lights. Given how much time we spend on our devices, this sounds like a smart investment, right? After all, eye strain (疲劳) is a real issue and can lead to poor sleep and even eye diseases. The glasses can cost $15 all the way up to several hundred dollars. But do they work?Elizabeth Esparaz, an ophthalmologist (眼科专家) based in Cleveland, Ohio, says the science that manufacturers share as they promote these glasses can be confusing. For starters, blue light is not just about tech devices, and it’s not always bad. “The sun emits a much higher intensity of blue light than human-made devices, which helps our mood, alertness and sleep-wake cycle,” says Dr. Esparaz.The problem is blue light at night: It contains the release of melatonin. “Melatonin helps regulate our circadian rhythms (生理节奏) and makes us sleepy,” says Dr. Esparaz.So, in theory, wearing blue-light-blocking glasses should help people who watch movies in bed or read from a tablet at night avoid sleeplessness. A review study from the University of Oklahoma that looked al 24 previous studies found that people affected by sleep disorders, jet lag and shift work fell asleep faster after using these glasses.As for eye strain, a 2021 Australian study showed that those wearing the glasses did not experience less eye strain than those using clear glasses. And a 2018 review study, also by Australian researchers found insufficient evidence that they prevent certain eye diseases.“These glasses aren’t going to be harmful,” says Dr. Esparaz, But, she adds, a lack of standardization in the industry means there’s no way to know if one pair is better than another.A more reliable solution: Turn on the blue-light-filtering function on your devices and limit screen time before bed. To help with eye strain, Dr. Esparaz suggests taking breaks and using lubricating eye drops.5．What is Dr. Esparaz’s attitude toward business publicity?A．Unclear.B．Tolerant.C．Approving.D．Doubtful. 6．What can we learn about blue light from the first two paragraphs?A．It can be beneficial.B．It may improve sleep.C．It actually causes health issues.D．It merely comes from digital devices. 7．Australian studies found that wearing blue-light-blocking glasses ________.A．helps prevent eye disease B．are not harmful to eyesightC．contributes to no less eye strain D．benefits those with sleep disorders 8．What might be the best title of this passage?A．Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Your Best Choice B．Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Good or BadC．Blue-light-blocking Glasses: A Good Business D．Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Smart and CoolIn the 1950s, British historian Northeaster Parkinson came up with a concept which was later known as Parkinson’s Law of Triviality. It states that the amount of time spent discussing an issue in an organization is oppositely associated with its actual importance.Parkinson’s Law of Triviality is also known as “bike-shedding (车棚)”, after the story Parkinson uses to illustrate it. He asks readers to imagine a financial committee meeting to discuss a three-point agenda. The points are as follows: A proposal for a f10 million nuclear power plant; A proposal for a f350 bike shed; A proposal for a f21 annual coffee budget.What happens? The committee ends up running through the nuclear power plant proposal in little time. It’s too advanced for anyone to really dig into the details. The discussion soon moves to the bike shed. Here, everyone’s an expert. In the end, the committee runs out of time and decides to meet again to complete their analysis.Bike-shedding happens because the smaller a matter is, the more people will have an opinion on it, even when there is no real value to add. When something is outside of ourcircle of competence, like a nuclear power plant, we don’t even try to express an opinion. But when something is understandable everyone wants to show that they know about the topic at hand.How can we avoid bike-shedding? The main thing you can do is to have a clear purpose. Priya Parker, the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, says that any successful gathering needs to have a focused purpose. “Specificity,” she says, “is a key element.”When it comes to choosing your list of invitees, Parker writes, “if the purpose of your meeting is to make a decision, you may want to consider having fewer cooks in the kitchen.” Getting the result you want—a thoughtful, educated discussion about that power plant—depends on having the right people in the room.9．What is Parkinson’s purpose of presenting the imaginary meeting?A．To state a fact.B．To clarify a concept.C．To make a prediction.D．Tointroduce a new point.10．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A．The more you know, the less you speak.B．What is simple for you may be tough for others.C．What requires more work may get less attention.D．The more you put in, the better your result will be.11．Which is the author’s suggestion for a successful meeting?A．Planning before the meeting.B．Getting the right people to the table.C．Spending less time on the minor issues.D．Taking different opinions into account. 12．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Purpose: The Key to an Effective MeetingB．Talent: A Crucial Element in OrganizationsC．The Bike Shed Effect: Avoiding Small MattersD．Nuclear Power Plant: The Less-known Proposal二、七选五Consumers in the United States spent nearly $3.7 million on dish washing soap in 2018 to get their dishes clean. That sets the question: Do we really need dish washing soap to getour dishes clean? The short answer is: No. 13How can we get our dishes clean without using dish washing soap? Hot water is an effective and time-tested method. A lot of what we eat is water-soluble and can simply be washed away with very hot water. 14 They need an alkali (碱) to break them down. So, if you’re out of dish soap and have a thick oily pan to wash, you’ll need to make your own soap by adding an alkali to hot water.You can also run your dishwasher using only the rinse (漂洗) cycle. Simply remove the remains thoroughly by hand and load as usual in the machine. Add white vinegar, a sharp-tasting liquid used in cooking, to the cleaning cup. 15 Set your dishwasher on the rinse cycle and you will get clean, shim dishes.If you’re a camper or a farmer, plant and wood ashes—remains of burnt plants and wood—are readily available in the remains of your campfire, which have served as dish washing soap for a long time. Gather some ashes from your campfire and put them in a pot. In a separate pot boil some water. Slowly pour hot water over the ashes, just enough to make a mixture. 16While wood ashes may not win the good housekeeping seal of approval, they’ll clean your pan and get it ready for air drying.17 Whether you find yourself down to the last drop of your dish washing soap at home, forget to bring it along on your camping trip or just want to try an eco-friendly, natural alternative, turn to these things to help you.A．We can get along without it.B．An eco-friendly cleaning solution is created.C．Animal fats and proteins, however, are the opposite.D．People used unusual things in the natural world around them.E．Dish washing soap has been around since the mid-20th century.F．It’s good to know that there’re alternatives to make your dishes clean.G．The acid will wipe out the harmful things and keep the dishes from spotting.三、完形填空In San Antonio, a theme park called Morgan’s Wonderland has welcomed visitors acrossbegan with one dad who wanted to make his daughter Morgan Hartman 19 .Morgan Hartman was born with 20 .

I just stopped and decided to observe its walking.Behind me there was a family going up the same way and they also noticed the tarantula. Without doubting it, a kid shouted, ''Quick, Dad, kill it. '' His brother also encouraged their dad to do that. Then I stopped their dad. ''Wait. This is the last place the tarantula has to live in. Do you really want to kill it? ''''Well, it's dangerous and we have kids here…''''Why not stand still and let it cross safely? Then you can go and admire the rest of the park. ''After some discussions I persuaded them to stand still and watch. Soon, the tarantula crossed and hid into the bushes.Their dad thanked me and said, ''You're right. I was about to make a mistake. '' The children even said good bye to the tarantula and they learned something too.4. What did the family want to do on seeing the tarantula?A．To watch it. B．To kill it.C．To stand by. D．To hide away.5. What did the dad think of the tarantula?A．Dangerous. B．Interesting.C．Powerful. D．Beautiful.6. What is the author's advice on how to deal with the tarantula?A．To stop it quickly. B．To greet it politely.C．To let it cross safely. D．To drive it into the bushes.7. What may the kids learn from the experience?A．Stay calm in time of danger.B．Enjoy the beauty of nature.C．Stay away from animals.D．Treat the wildlife kindly.Sooner or later, many families will face the situation of moving. The experience can be very bad for kids, who may not be a part of the decision to move and may not understand it. You can take steps to make the whole process (过程) easier for everyone.Many kids like to stay in familiar places. So as you consider a move, weigh the benefits of that change against the comfort that neighborhood, school, and social life give your kids. If your familyhas recently dealt with a big life change, such as death, you may want to put off a move to give your children time to accept the fact.The decision to move may be out of your hands, perhaps because of a new job or money problems. Even if you're not happy about the move, try to keep a positive attitude to it. During the move, parents' attitude can greatly influence kids.No matter what the results are, the most important way to prepare kids to move is to talk about it. Try to give your children as much information about the move as possible. You can ask kids to join in the planning such as house hunting or the search for a new school. This can make the change feel less like it's being forced on them. If you're moving across town, try to take your children to visit the new house and the new neighborhood.A move can have many problems, but good things also come from this kind of change. Your family might grow closer and you may learn more about each other by going through it together.8. According to the passage kids may feel a move is a bad experience because ________.A．they don't like the moving processB．they may feel they're forced to do soC．they think their parents don't care about themD．they often feel lonely in a new school9. In which situation does the writer advise to put off a move?A．The new neighborhood isn't safe. B．The parents have money problems.C．A family member has just died. D．The kid's birthday is coming.10. When making the move easier for kids, ________is most important.A．letting them choose a schoolB．trying not to show them the bad parts of a moveC．telling them as much information as possibleD．promising to choose a new house with them11. The writer wrote this passage mainly to tell us ________.A．why parents should talk with kids often B．how to prepare children for a moveC．how a move can change the family D．what we should do before a move Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website Book turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register (登记) the books they own and would like to share. Book Crossing provides an identification number (识别码) to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of Bo ok Crossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. Book Crossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E— mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.Book Crossing is part of a trend (趋势) among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual (虚拟).The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty—five countries.12. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A．To explain what they are. B．To introduce Book Crossing.C．To stress the importance of reading. D．To encourage readers to share their ideas.13. Wh at does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．An adventure. B．A public place.C．The book. D．The identification number.14. What will a Book Crosser do with a book after reading it?A．Keep it safe in his bookcase. B．Mail it back to its owner.C．Meet other readers to discuss it. D．Pass it on to another reader.15. What is the best title for the text?A．Online Reading: A Virtual Tour B．Electronic Books: A New TrendC．A Book Group Brings Tradition Back D．A Website Links People through Books No one will be surprised to hear that the arts are under fire in this day and age. We view the arts as something of a hobby, something that’s fun but certainly can’t pay the rent. Do we really need art in our lives?It seems as though the loss of art in daily life is a sad fact of life, but it doesn’t have to be. 16 For example, art therapy has helped people with a range of illnesses, both mental and physical, cope with their symptoms. Art is found almost anywhere you look in your home. Practical items, such as bedspreads, furniture or clothing, are all art forms in themselves and arouse emotions in the people interacting with them.17 History tells us what happened and when it happened, but it can’t tell us how the population at large felt about it, which is where art steps in. We know a lot about how people in the past lived and worked, because their art has given us such a deep insight into their daily lives.Most of all, we need art in our lives as it gives us a form of self-expression. 18 You may not think you talk about your feelings, but you may express them in other ways. Some like to cook or bake, some like to work on machinery, and others may like to paint or draw. 19 .So, do we need art in our lives? Many people would say no, but the art th ey’re thinking of is the art you see in galleries. 20 It helps those in need, gives people in the future an idea of what life was like, and is a vital form of self-expression.One of the greatest things about getting out of the city is heading into nature and really communing with (与……融为一体) the Earth and wildlife. But sometimes, the ___________ finds its way into the city.A man named Tom Bell lives in London. When he went up to his rooftop to take a break one day, he realized he wasn’t alone . But don’t worry. His _________ was of the fuzzy (毛茸茸的) variety. A wild fox had made its way up to the roof just in time to ___________ the sunset. It was getting_________ and cold, but fortunately, there was a blanket laid out and ready for it! The tired fox just wanted to have a sleep.Tom quickly _________ the event online with the world and received many likes. People were obviously _______________ by the truly unbothered fox. _____________ the lucky man, the fox got up there through the fire escape.

It is supposed that there’s a population of about 33,000 urban foxes in total in the country.Once Tom shared his __________________ house guest, others around London also started__________________ photos of their urban foxes! Well, it’s probably safe to say that we’re a little envious (羡慕的) of these lucky persons and their fuzzy visitors.

二、相关背景： 1、关于作者： 欧阳斌，湖南耒阳人，1954年出生。
作品有散文随笔录《青春絮语》《远方的诱惑》《哲人的乐园》等。
周素姗，笔名毕璞，原籍广东中山，岭南大学中文系毕业，1938年来台湾，曾任大华晚报及前中国时报家庭版主编，公论报副刊主编，妇友月刊总编辑等职，现已退休专心从事创作。
周素姗的笔龄将届五十年，在漫长的写作生涯中，周素姗的笔路甚广，她写散文、小说、儿童故事、杂文、评论、传记，也翻译过英美的文学作品。
不过近年她已减少产量，只写散文和短篇小说。
周素姗作品产量虽多，但是她一向只为兴趣以及有所感而写，“以我笔写我心”是她的写作信条。
她的文章清新雅丽，在平淡中蕴含著哲理，言之有物，非一般花拳绣腿者可比。
周素姗已出版的著作有《故国梦重归》、《风雨故人来》、《寂寞黄昏后》、《心灯集》、《秋夜宴》、《绿萍姊妹》、《无言歌》、《清音》、《春花与春树》、《明日又天涯》、《毕璞自选集》、《老树春深更著花》、《有情世界》等39种。
她一篇早期的散文《第一次真好》，曾选入国文课本中。
2、相关知识： 《走，看云去》：云的变化千姿百态，心情也是千变万化，当我们的思想有点慵倦时，就让我们的目光投向苍穹，欣赏这宇宙永恒不朽的风景。
周素姗的《第一次真好》写了第一次的感觉是生命中难得的宝贵经验。
作者第一次看柚子树而引了的喜悦与新奇以及第一次看见“十姊妹”的雏鸟时并不喜欢，因为“它们的样子很难看”，作者甚至“竟因此而吃不下饭”，但后来“等到它们渐渐长大，羽毛渐丰，一切都具体而微”的时候，作者“喜爱它们又甚于那些老鸟”。

Yet so few of us realize them. Often, a dream dies as quickly as it is born 36 we lack the confidence to keep it. When I was old enough to understand the realities of life, I realized that society puts a high 37 on youth, beauty and academic achievement. This discovery gave me some idea to develop my dream although I was 38 .My dream was 39 .I just dreamed of becoming a 40 when I was in secondary school. The employment field was a highly 41 place. It gave not only fierce competition to a disabled job-seeker but also the unfriendly treatment from the42 strong and healthy. They see the disabled as the back row of society.43 , I refused to sit in the back row. I decided to 44 a course in typing run by the government. When I 45 over the application form to the interviewer, she looked at me, then moved her eyes to my body. She advised me to 46 my choice from typing. But I was 47 to stay with it. “I will be a really good typist,”I told her. She 48 me.On the fifth month of the sixth-month course, five students were 49 to do some copy typing. I was one of them. I was very efficient and finished half of the work given to us all.50 work came to me after this test. I could see quite clearly the way to51 my dream. I was taken on as one of the typists in one of the offices immediately after my graduation. I did not 52 starting at the bottom of the ladder. Being a typist was just the beginning of the 53 . Having achieved one dream, I set out to achieve others. I worked and studied at the same time, which was no easy task.

Or have you ever received a telephone call from a retailer asking you whether an item you purchased a month before was meeting your needs？No doubt you noticed these gracious acts．Business firms in this highly competitive decade are quick to institute programs designed to ensure product and service quality．But it's often the ''little things'' that help build a permanent tie between seller and buyer．If you want to make those ''little things'' a high customer service priority，here are a few tips for you to follow．Make a list of the simple, but gracious acts you can perform for your customers．It might include handing out key chains or other small gifts to customers after a purchase, or extending delivery service to elderly customers．Just be sure every item is realistic，economical and easy to carry out．Training in the ''little things'' helps your people learn skills and attitudes．If you want your people to hand out small gifts of your business, be sure they're kept in stock．If you want your people to take extra time with customers, be sure you schedule enough staffing during peak business hours．If you want your people to follow up with customers on the telephone at the end of each month, be sure you drop the sales load a bit at that time．Training in the ''little things'' doesn't end with a single activity．It must become part of everyday life in your business．Emphasize the importance of the ''little things'' by word and deed．Be sure everyone visibly practices the art of customer courtesy each day．Announce the power of the ''little things'' through every possible means. The more cheer leading you do about this topic, the more it will become deeply fixed in the workplace．56. The underlined word ''gracious'' can most likely be replaced by _______．A．surprising B．warmhearted C．interesting D．kind57. If you want your people to accompany customers much longer,_______．A．be sure little things are kept in stockB．be sure enough assistants are available during rush business hoursC．be sure you drop the sales load a bit at that timeD．be sure to let them follow up with you58. The main idea of this passage is ________A．how to train the employees in the business firmB．the importance of ''little things'' in today's businessC．the necessity of giving away little thingsD．praising employees who show courtesy to customersBApparently, we are safe neither at home nor in the business office. We use water in both places，but the research shows that chemicals added to our local water supply to kill harmful bacteria can have unwanted side effects. These chemicals can cause potential harm through drinking and in seemingly harmless activities as cleaning one’s house. They are released from water by daily actions like water running out of tap, spraying from garden pipes, or splashing in dishwashers and washing machines. As the water is moving, these chemicals are released into the air and then breathed in. Once inside our bodies, they start to affect our health.Does this mean we should stop bathing? No, say the scientists, but we should put all pollution into perspective. Activities at home such as the burning of coal, cooking oil, or even candles release carbon monoxide and particulates such as cigarette ashes which have been proven as harmful to health as working or living near heavy traffic. New tugs, bedding, and even clothing give off that “new smell”, which is a sure sign of chemicals. In the office, newly applied paint, newly purchased telephones and other telecommunications equipment, and computers release polluting chemicals, too. As offices and homes often have inadequate ventilation (通风), these chemicals can build up to become health problems. Their poisonous effects are only now being slowly recognized.These facts suggest that, at a minimum, proper airing of newly purchased goods with an obvious chemical smell is a wise warning. Home and office windows should be opened during good weather. Even one’s car needs to be ventilated as well while in the garage.We need further research to understand better other potential health dangers, too. For example, the effects of overcrowding of schools (carbon dioxide build-up ), the factory work environment ( an endless list of potentially dangerous substances), and even home heating and cooling (the air conditioner may be our enemies, not our friends) have only recently started to come to light. Until we understand the effects of our new technological environment better, we can only hope that “there is no place like home.”59. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. The air we breathe in is harmful.B. Chemicals are released in the running water.C. Chemicals are added to the drinking water.D. The water in everyday use is unsafe.60. In Paragraph 2, the underlined sentence means that ___________________________.A. homes and offices should be aired oftenB. any pollution should be taken into considerationC. bathing should be done with cautionD. we should prevent any pollution from doing harm to us61. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To call on us to guard our water.B. To show us that no place is like home.C. To make us aware of the pollution around us.D. To argue that neither homes nor offices are safe.CTOKYO --- The number of domestic infections cases of influenza A/H1N1 in Japan hits 42 on Sunday after a total of 34 people in Osaka and Hyogo counties were confirmed to have been infected, local media reported.The total number of the infection in the country now stands at 46, including the first four cases contracted abroad. The country is now facing the risk of grass-root outbreak which could lead the WHO to raise its new flu pandemic alert（传染病预警）to the highest level of 6 from the current 5, experts has warned.The 34 newly confirmed domestic cases, 11 in Osaka and 23 in Hyogo, included high school students, college students and teachers, the health ministry and local governments said on Sunday. Japan on Saturday confirmed the first eight cases of domestic infection on students of a Kobe high school. The later confirmed cases in Osaka are said to have contacted the Kobe students in a volleyball match. Osaka and Hyogo are neighboring in the Kansai region.All of the 42 people had no record of overseas travel. Meanwhile, a total of 143 students at the Kansai Okura Senior High School where many infections in Osaka were found, have shown symptoms of influenza since around Monday, according to local media reports. The privately run school said it will be closed from Monday through Saturday. More than 1,000 educational facilities -- kindergartens, and elementary, junior and senior high schools -- in Osaka and Hyogo counties have decided to suspend classes for certain periods following the confirmation of new flu infections in the counties, Kyodo News reported.The two counties have requested private schools to follow suit. Osaka Governor Toru Hashimoto held a meeting of a new flu task force on Sunday and decided to ask facilities such as movie theaters to suspend operations to prevent the spread of the flu. TV clips showed people in Kansai region started to wear masks in public spaces and rushed to drug stores for buying medicines.The Japanese government on Saturday shifted the stage of its new-flu action program from “a period of overseas outbreak” to “a period of domestic outbreak” and called for companies and schools in the areas concerned to allow individuals to avoid commuting(出行)during rush hours.The Kyodo News quoted Masato Tashiro, a member of the World Health Organization's emergency committee, as saying that several hundred people in Japan already may have been infected with the new flu.62.

Now a new study dispels a common belief about why they quit. It’s much more basic than flunking out（不及格）.Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’t cut it. They are lazy, and perhaps not too bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who’d quit school about why they left.“The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.” John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic（美籍西班牙的）students will receive a diploma, and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So, if failing grades don’t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again, John Bridgeland: "The most dependable finding was that they were bored.” “They found classes uninteresting; they weren’t inspired or motivated. They didn’t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspirations.”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US, only one state, New Mexico, has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions. Another researcher says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school．“As these dropouts look back, they realize they’ve made a mis take. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and stick it through to the end, is probably helpful measure.”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point－the need for reform. It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant. And to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.67. Most high school students drop out of school because＿＿．A. they have failing gradesB. they take no interest in classesC. they are discriminated againstD. they are lazy and not intelligent68. According to the passage, which state has a law requiring school attendance untilthey graduate?A. New Hampshire.B. Utah.C. New Mexico.D. The District of Columbia.69. The underlined words “stick it out” probably means“___________”．plete schoolingB.solve the problemC.love having classesD.believe inthemselves70. In the last paragraph, the writer is trying to____________.A. analyze the reason why students quit schoolB. suggest raising the compulsory attendance ageC. raise awareness of reforming high school educationD. wish to make laws to guarantee no educationII卷（共35分）第一节任务型阅读（共10小题，满分5分）The latest scientific studies show that the sun and the oceans have far more important influences on the world's climate than human activity.The head of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC), Professor Fred Singer, put forward a suggestion to the UN-sponsored IPCC. He said, “We donated our time and best efforts to produce this report out of concern that the IPCC gave us an incorrect reason for global-warming based on incomplete and faulty science.”“Global-warming news has led to the demand for unrealistic efficiency standards for cars, the construction of uneconomic wind and solar energy stations, the establishment of large production facilities for uneconomic fuels such as ethanol(乙醇) from corn, requirements that electric companies buy expensive power from so-called‘renewable’energy sources, and plans to reduce, at considerable expense, carbon dioxide from power plants.“While it is absolutely nothing wrong to increase energy efficiency, they cannot be regarded as a realistic means to control climate. In addition, policies have been developed that try to hide the huge cost of greenhouse gas controls.“Seeing science clearly misused t o shape public policies that have the potential to cause serious economic harm, particularly on low-income groups, we choose to speak up for science at a time when too few people outside the scientific community know what is happening, and too few scientists who know the truth have to speak out against the IPCC.”NIPCC is what its name suggests: an international organization of non-governmental scientists and scholars who have come together to understand the causes and consequences of climate change.“Becau se we don't believe climate change is caused by human greenhouse gas, we are able to look at evidence the IPCC ignores. Because we do not work for any governments, we can make our research more scientific and fairer.”第二节单词拼写(共10小题,满分5分)1. The event did not live up to e___________________________.2.
