江苏省徐州市2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题

江苏省徐州市2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题

江苏省徐州市2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解If you’re feeling in the mood for grilled food but don’t have a barbecue, then deciding what product to purchase can be a bit difficult. So to help you get a better understanding of just some of the choices available, here’s our guide to buying a new BBQ.Charcoal vs GasThe first decision is how your BBQ is going to be powered. There are essentially two main choices: the traditional way with charcoal, or the quick and convenient way with gas. For those who get frustrated with the process of lighting coals and waiting for them to reach the desired temperature, then gas is the easy option. It’s clean and gets up to temperature in an instant. But for many, the main fun of a barbecue lies in the back-to-basics cooking that hot coal brings natural barbecue fire. You’ll also find a far greater range of charcoal barbecues. SizeFor anyone who likes to throw a garden party with a busy barbecue at the centre of the action, there are some vast grills (烤架) available. But unless you’re regularly feeding the masses, then these BBQ beasts can be impractical. Smaller meals are better suited to smaller equipment, so be realistic about the size that best suits you.Open grill or lidWhile facing the barbecue selection of your nearest retailer, you’ll notice that some of them have lids. These will usually be round and will make you pay more than the lidless options. But if you want the benefit of being able to cook larger items over a longer period of time, such as a whole chicken, then a lid will be essential.1.Which BBQ is suitable for Jack, who likes back-to-basics cooking and often invites friends to the garden party?A.Gas barbecue in small size.B.Gas barbecue in big size.C.Charcoal barbecue with big grills.D.Charcoal barbecue with small grills. 2.What is the difference between the open grill and the one with a lid?A.The open grill costs more.B.The open grill looks superior.C.The open grill is more reliable.D.The open grill is less suitable for larger items.3.Which column of the magazine is the passage most likely selected from?A.Lifestyle.B.Business.C.Culture.D.Sports.In recent years, wooden buildings have reached new heights, with soaring(高耸的)wooden skyscrapers completed or underway in countries like Norway, Switzerland and AustraliA.Sweden, likewise, has come up with a plan—building the world’s biggest wooden city. As the world’s largest urban construction project in wood, Stockholm Wood City will be built in Sweden’s capital, Stockholm in 2025.“By using wood, the project is expected to reduce carbon footprint by up to 40%,compared with building in concrete and steel,” says Annica Anäs, CEO of Atrium Ljungberg, a Swedish urban development company. Some people may have concerns over fire risks posed by wooden buildings, but experts say engineered timber(木材)can resist fire as well. As with other modern construction projects using wood, Wood City will still use some concrete and steel in places like the foundations, but the overall amounts will be greatly reduced.“The construction will not be as noisy as it is built from concrete and bricks,” adds Ms Anäs. This makes wooden buildings particularly suitable for urban redevelopment in general, since putting them up is less likely to annoy the neighbours. It should also be profitable. Ms Anäs is looking for a return on investment of 20% or better.The world’s largest wooden city is supposed to make commute (通勤) easier and shorter, decreasing emissions from transportation. The website for the project describes Stockholm Wood City as a “five minute city”. As Anäs concluded, “We want to create an environment where our customers, who will live and work here, can participate in the development and design of the city district of the future. ”4.The project mentioned in the passage is about__________.A.making a modern city B.creating wooden skyscrapersC.building the highest wooden building D.constructing the largest wooden city 5.What advantage do wooden buildings have over concrete and steel buildings?A.Resisting fires.B.Lasting long.C.Being environmentally friendly.D.Being comfortable.6.Wooden buildings are suitable for urban redevelopment mainly because__________.A.they are profitable for investors B.they cause less noise when builtC.they have a short construction period D.they are less costly to maintain and repair 7.What is Anäs’ attitude to the future of wood construction?A.Optimistic.B.Critical.C.Concerned.D.doubtful.Since 2001, robotic tools have caused great changes in the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.One example is “keyhole surgery”, or minimally invasive (微创) surgery, which normally requires surgeons to stand at awkward angles and make difficult movements with their hands to make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgeon James Ansell used 3D glasses and two joysticks(操纵杆) to control four robotic arms to perform a procedure to remove a cancerous tumor (肿瘤). “My colleague said… that this feels like cheating,” Ansell said to The Guardian.Another area of surgery that has had major technological breakthroughs in recent years is telesurgery. Telesurgery, or remote surgery, is the use of technology that allows a surgeon to perform a procedure on a patient not in the same physical location.Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient if a wireless connection should drop during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons at the Hainan Eye Hospital successfully completed remote micron–level eye surgery via a 5G robot on rabbits located at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, reported China Daily.Some people even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass(超过)human surgeons. But given current technological limitations and the high costs of these robots, the complete robot takeover of surgery may still be a while off.8.The underlined part in paragraph 2 indicates the procedure may___________.A.be illegal B.be difficult to controlC.cheat the patient D.be conducted unknowingly9.What significant achievement did China make in the field of telesurgery?A.Removing a cancerous tumor using 3D glasses.B.Achieving remote surgery using a wired connection.C.Doing the first 5G-based eye remote operation on humans.D.Performing the first wireless brain surgery with 5G technology.10.What can we infer about robots in the medical field according to the passage?A.They still need further development.B.They have been widely adopted.C.They are currently in high demand.D.They have surpassed human surgeons. 11.What is the article mainly about?A.The benefits of robotic surgery.B.The future of robotic surgery.C.The advancements in medical robotics.D.The achievements of China’s medicine.I’m a recovering addict. I was addicted to YouTube.My addiction started several years ago. My first experience was on the recommendation of a friend to check out Susan Boyle’s amazing singing on Britain’s Got Talent. I didn’t think much about it and got on with my life.But soon I found myself spending a lot of time staring at the screen and discovered onscreen offerings were truly endless. From one YouTuber I learned how to plant my own vegetable garden. Someone else gave wise sayings from philosophers. Down the rabbit hole I went, for hours and hours, watching other people living their lives and giving me advice on how to live mine.As the months rolled by, checking in every day with people who were talking to me personally (or so it seemed) became an addiction. I subscribed to (订阅) many channels and waited anxiously for new weekly offerings. I found all this calming and therapeutic.At some point, though, I got annoyed by these artistic and seemingly perfect lives. Who are filming them? Do they happen to live in a meadow (草地)? The questions started to disturb me while forcing comparisons with my own somewhat more ordinary existence.Regardless of my growing anxiety, I continued to click on the YouTube icon on my phone whenever I had a spare five minutes. I compared my life constantly with the images onscreen. I started to hate the endless rules presented for good health, financial stability and mental contentment. In a moment of clarity (清晰), I realized that I had a full and happy life myself, which suited me perfectly although it wouldn’t win awards for perfection onscreen. I put my phone away and started paying attention to my own life, instead of watching other people live theirs. I still like checking in once in a while for some entertainment andinspiration, but I’ve limited my exposure. I am content in the knowledge that my addiction to life onscreen has been replaced by life itself.12.What led the author to use YouTube for the first time?A.Her search for gardening tips.B.Her friend’s recommendation.C.Her curiosity about the platform.D.Her admiration for a famous singer. 13.What did the author think of YouTube videos at first?A.Informative and relaxing.B.Dull and discouraging.C.Creative and puzzling.D.Addictive and useless.14.What happened after the author became addicted to YouTube?A.She gradually lost purpose in life.B.She tried to copy others’ lifestyle.C.She sought for the peace of country life.D.She kept making comparisons withothers.15.What kind of life does the author live now?A.Stop surfing online.B.Upload videos about her life.C.Appreciate real-life experiences more.D.Spend more time on her social life.二、七选五meat by growing cells obtained from an animal’s body.Lab-grown meat, also called “cell–cultivated” or “cultured” meat, is made by feeding a mix of nutrients to animal cells in steel tanks in labs. The idea is to create an alternative to agriculturally raised meat. And unlike other meat substitutes which are made from plant proteins and other ingredients, lab-grown meat is real meat. 17Recently, the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has given two companies approval to sell lab–grown chicken. 18 It’s aimed at eliminating (消除) harm to animals, and reducing the environmental impacts of grazing(放牧) and growing feed for animals.“Everything we know about how meat can be made is going to change. But don’t expect to see cultivated meat in grocery stores just yet,” said Uma Vaieti, CEO of UPSIDE Foods.19 That’s because it cannot yet be produced on the scale of traditional meat.“To make cultivated meat, we need much more energy,” said Bruce Friedrich, presidentand founder of the Good Food Institute. However, those high energy needs will be offset(补偿)by the reduction in land and water use and other benefits. It’s thought that cultured meat will be probably produced on a large scale. 20A.Lab-grown meat is much more expensive now.B.When ready, lab-grown meat is formed into shapes.C.The approval launches a new era of meat production.D.It looks, smells and tastes like any other grocery store version.E.But scientists behind lab-grown meat say that’s no longer necessary.F.That could also offer a solution to feeding the world’s growing population.G.The typical way meat is produced now is a risk factor for the emergence of diseases.三、完形填空Yue–Sai Kan’ s autobiography, Be a Pioneer, was released after three years’making. Her23.A.race B.game C.chance D.medal 24.A.beginning B.middle C.end D.peak 25.A.absorbed B.committed C.engaged D.lost 26.A.watched B.created C.participated D.appreciated 27.A.food B.people C.cultures D.politics 28.A.brands B.patents C.awards D.rewards 29.A.build B.restrict C.separate D.connect 30.A.adjusted to B.returned to C.withdrew from D.came from 31.A.English B.American C.French D.Chinese 32.A.include B.conclude C.deny D.monitor 33.A.hear B.witness C.miss D.catch 34.A.rare B.common C.normal D.strange 35.A.harm B.restore C.fund D.benefit四、用单词的适当形式完成短文五、邀请信46.假如你是李华,你校广播站新增英语频道,你负责英语播音员的招募工作,请你给外教Josh写一封邮件邀请他担任面试官。

A piece of newspaper.C. A science magazine.D. A bulletin.BSpecialists say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. "Culture shock" is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment.There are three stages of culture shock,say the specialists.In the first stage,the newcomers like their new environment.Then,when the fresh experience dies,they begin to hate the city,the country,the people,and everything else.In the last stage,the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and,as a result,enjoy their life more.There are some obvious factors in culture shock.The weather may be unpleasant.The customs may be different.The public service systems-the telephone,post office,or transportation-may be difficult to work out.The most simple things seem to be big problems.The language may bedifficult.Who feels culture shock?Everyone does in this way or that.But culture shock surprises most people.Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their ing to a new country,these people find they do not have the same established positions.They find themselves without a role,almost without an identity.They have to build a new self-image.Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation(迷惘).This feeling may be homesickness.When homesick,people feel like staying inside all the time.They want to protect themselves from the strange environment,and create and escape inside their room for a sense of security.This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term,but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture.Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience-these are the long term solutions to the problem of culture shock.15.When people move to a new country,they ______ .A. will get used to their new surroundings with difficultyB. have well prepared for the new surroundingsC. will get used to the culture of the country quicklyD. will never be familiar with culture of the country16.According to the passage,factors causing culture shock include all of the followingEXCEPT ______ .A. language communicationB. weather conditions and customsC. public service systemsD. homesickness17.According to the passage,the more successful you are at home, ______ .A. the fewer difficulties you may have abroadB. the more difficulties you may have abroadC. the more money you will earn abroadD. the less homesick you will feel abroad18.The best way to overcome culture shock might be ______ .A. to escape unfamiliar environmentB. to overcome the feeling of homesicknessC. to stay inside all the timeD. to get familiar with the new cultureCBears eat human food when they can get some.But in a new study,the more human food 30 female black bears ate,the less time those bears were likely to spend hibernating(冬眠).In turn,bears that hibernated less were likely to score worse in a test for aging.The new research grew out of an earlier project to see what wild black bears across Colorado were eating,says Jonathan Pauli,a researcher from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Another researcher Rebecca Kirby checked diets of hundreds of bears across the state when she was a Ph.D.student.She found that hunters there were not allowed to set out bear bait(诱饵).That means the animals' way to get human food is mostly through finding human food themselves.When bears eat more human food,their bodies pick up higher levels of a form of carbon known as carbon-13.It comes from plants such as corn.The researcher found the telltale(报警的)form of carbon in an earlier study.They found bears in some places ate a large share of people's leftovers(剩饭).Sometimes,these leftovers could make up more than 30 percent of a bear's diets,Pauli note.In the new study,Kirby looked at the effect of diet on hibernation.Bears usually sleep for four to six months,during which female bears give birth.Kirby and her colleagues focused on 30 female bears around Durango,Colo.These bears were watched over by the state's parks and wildlife department.The team first tested bears for carbon-13.They found the ones that ate more human-related food tended to hibernate for shorter periods.Studies on smaller animals show that hibernation may slow the aging process.If true,shortening the seasonal sleep may have an ill effect on bears.To test it,the researchers tested for relative changes in the length of telomeres(染色体端粒).In the new study,bears that hibernated for shorter periods tended to have telomeres that shortened more quickly than those of other bears.This suggests the animals were aging faster,the team says.The bears didn't always meet Kirby's needs for several kinds of data,so she can't say there is a direct and "certain" connection between what bears eat and aging.So far,Kirby calls the evidence "suggestive".19.What does the new study show about bears?______A. They have much difficulty in getting food.B. Hibernating is their best way to stay young.C. Eating human food might cause fast aging.D. They hibernate for shorter periods than before.20.What can be learned from Paragraphs 3-4?______A. Hunters usually use human food as bear bait.B. Carbon-13 levels will fall if bears eat human food.C. Bears seem to be able to find human food on their own.D. Many bears only eat people's leftovers as their diets.21.What might cause a bear's telomeres to shorten more quickly?______A. Hibernating for enough time.B. Being weak with hunger.C. Eating much human food.D. Slowing the aging process.DLike a lot of people,I've always wanted to be self-employed,but I was afraid to make the leap.Everything I had read about starting a small business suggested I should have a whole lot of money in the bank before I even considered striking out on my own.Three kids,my own college loans,and several medical mishaps(灾祸)over the years had certainly not allowed for that.I'd had jobs I liked,but somehow I'd never been satisfied.Teaching school had been satisfying for about ten years,but then the brightness had faded.Jobs as a college instructor and corporate training designer had begun to become boring,too.One boring day at the office,I made a list of all the skills I'd got over the years in my jobs and as a freelancer(自由职业人).The list was long.But I considered my dreams of self-employment an unlikely project,and the list went back in my drawer,only to appear the next time I met with difficulties in my job.As I continued to work at various tasks and learn new things on the job,my list grew.Finally,the little list stopped growing and developed instead into a business plan.One autumn evening,I showed the plan to my husband while we were out having dinner."It looks practical," he said."Maybe someday."I swallowed my disappointment.What did I think he would say?"Sure,hon,go ahead.We have no money saved,but just quit your job and give this a try.The worst thing that can happen is we'll lose the house."The next day I went back to work,and the list went back in my drawer.And then it happened:I got greedy.I had a perfectly good job at a perfectly good company.A good salary.A great boss.But another perfectly good company offered me more money,more vacation time,more everything.I took on a role for which I was not fully prepared.For more than thirty years,I had been the quick learner,the independent worker,the self-starter.And here I was,in my early fifties at a new job,not able to catch on or fit in.Now what?Looking back,I realize it wasn't that I couldn't still learn just as fast as I ever had;it was that I had entered a business environment where lifelong employees had developed a climate so particular to their company and industry that newcomers felt more like outsiders than part of the team. If I had done my homework,I would have known this was a poor move.Still,I now had to make a decision.Stay put and pretend that I "got it"?Financial common sense would suggest that I do just that,no matter how much pain it gave me.But I've never had a lot of common sense when it comes to following my heart or my head.My heart always wins.And this time my heart won in more ways than one:when I again brought out my little business plan during dinner,I was reminded just how much my husband of over thirty years loves me."I believe in you," he said.More powerful words were never spoken.I began my small business,which provides editorial and design services,a few weeks later.It hasn't been easy.I found out quickly that self-employment is not equal to "flexible lifestyle".I work many more hours now than I did when in the employ of others.And money changes often.Some days are good,and some days I still search the want ads and question the wisdom of my decision.No guarantees(担保)exist that my business will continue to grow.But no guarantees exist either that another employer wouldn't fire me or that I wouldn't find myself in a bad job situation again.I made the choice to believe in myself.And that's a risk worth taking.22.What can we learn from paragraph 2?______A. The author was not satisfied-with her present job.B. The three kids' misbehavior has already worn the author out.C. Teaching school is still attractive to the author.D. Being a college instructor is satisfying.23.That the author repeated the sentence "The list went back in my drawer" probably means______ .A. the author was not satisfied with the list of the technical skillsB. the author gave up her dream more than onceC. the author is determined to work at more jobs and learn more things on the jobD. the author was disappointed about her husband's response24.From the last but one paragraph,we know the author ______ .A. took advantage of her abilities got on her former jobs and started her own businessB. was positive that she would make a profit for her family though it was not easyC. stuck to her dream despite no guaranteesD. finally made up her mind because she was stuck in a miserable position at her work25.What does the underlined sentence "If I had done my homework,I would have known thiswas a poor move." mean?______A. If I had already known about this,I would not have taken the job.B. If I had done the homework,I would not have moved to a new place.C. If I could learn just as fast as I ever had,I would be able to fit in my new job.D. If I had known that newcomers would be outsiders rather than part of the team,I wouldquit my job.26.From the story,we can conclude that the author is ______ .A. generousB. humorousC. sensitiveD. independent三、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)What makes a book a good read?It is a great question,but there's no easy answer!(1) There are so many styles and types of books.This is because people have different likes.For fun,go and read the 1-star Amazon reviews of your favorite popular book.Many people hate it and can't finish it! (2) Maybe,it depends on your preferences.Art is highly subjective.There are certainly many good books on writing and story structure,but they're more general guides than step-by-step guides.Since books have no hidden parts(all the words are there on the page),it's necessary to study the books you and others think are good reads and ask," (3) " Most serious writers have early readers who read drafts and provide their opinions. (4) They learn which parts aren't as good as they think.And then they rewrite the drafts.A good read isusually the result of many improvements of a bad one.One difficulty in writing is that it is hard to find people who can give useful opinions beyond "I like it" or "I hate it." (5) .And you have to try to be willing to listen to things that you don't want to hear.At the same time,be glad to make changes to a draft based on what you learned.A.Why do people like reading books?B.Does this mean the book is actually terrible?C.Why does this work the way that it does?D.You have to try to find good advice givers.E.They don't know how to produce good books.F.These writers are learning from actual readers.G.What interests one person may not work for another.27.

Really?’’’ he told People. “It was nice - an ego (自我) boost for sure.”The reason that Elba needed an “ego boost” is probably that even though he’s famous now, having starred (主演) in many famous films, Elba hasn’t always been a confident person. He went through an awkward phase growing up, not feeling good about his look. And living in London as a child of an African immigrant (移民) family wasn’t easy for him either. “I was very tall and skinny. And my name was Idrissa Akuna Elba, okay? I got picked on a little bit,” he said. However, for the rest of us, the news of his award for being the “Sexiest Man Alive” was no surprise at all.Elba is far more than just an actor. He is the voice behind the versatile (多才多艺的) chief of police in Disney’s Zootopia. He is the director of crime drama film Yardie. He designs clothes, DJs and produces his own music. He also learned to fly a stunt (特技) plane. It was probably all these experiences that gave Elba theconfidence that he has today. But still, Elba managed to keep a humble (谦逊的) attitude toward life and people around him. “I love being confident, but also I know when to contain it and just stay humble and rational,” Elba told Entertainment Weekly.These “complicated contradictions” in Elba, as US movie producer Amy Pascal told The New York Times, “make every character he plays fascinating”. And it is this ability to fascinate that got Elba an Officer of the British Empire medal in 2016, for his “services to drama”. And it’s perhaps also these “complicated contradictions” that makes Elba charming.4.How did Elba feel on hearing the news in the first paragraph?A.Proud.B.Confident.C.Confused.D.Unexpected.5.What can we know about Elba’s life?A.He was satisfied with his appearance.B.He has always showed confidence in life.C.He acquired ego boost by starring in famous films.D.He was probably looked down upon in his childhood.6.Elba can be described as _________.A.demanding B.versatile C.rigid D.aggressive7.What is the root cause of Elba being highly recognized?A.His humble attitude.B.The ability to fascinate.C.Complex contradictions in him.D.His confidence.Climate breakdown is already changing the taste and quality of beer, scientists have warned. The quantity and quality of hops (啤酒花), a key ingredient in most beers, is being affected by global heating, according to a study. As a result, beer may become more expensive and producers will have to adapt their methods.Researchers forecast that hop yields in European growing regions will fall by 4 — 18% by 2050 if farmers do not adapt to hotter and drier weather, while the content of aloha acids in the hops, which gives beers their unique taste and smell, will fall by 20 — 31%.“Beer drinkers will definitely see the climate change, either in the price tag or the quality,” said Miroslav Trnka, a scientist at the Global Change Research Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences and co-author of the study, published in the journal Nature Communications. “That seems to be inevitable from our data.”Beer, the third-most popular drink in the world after water and tea, is made by fermenting (发酵) maltedgrains like barley with yeast. It is usually flavored with sweet-smelling hops grown mostly in the middle latitudes (纬度) that are sensitive to changes in light, heat and water.In recent years, demand for high-quality hops has been pushed up by a boom in craft beers with stronger flavors. But releases of planet-heating gases are putting the plant at risk, the study found.The researchers compared the average annual yield of aroma hops during the periods 1971 — 1994 and 1995 —2018 and found “a significant production decrease” of 0.13 — 0.27 tons per hectare. Celje, in Slovenia, had the greatest fall in average annual hop yield, at 19.4%. In Germany, the second biggest hop producer in the world, average hop yields have fallen 19.1% in Spalt, 13.7% in Hallertau, and 9.5% in Tettnang, the study found.Andreas AUernhammer, a hop farmer in Spalt in southern Germany, said the total rainfall in his fields had changed little but that now “the rain does not come at the right time”.8.Due to climate change, beer lovers may find beer _________.A.more affordable B.less tasty C.more adaptable D.less sensitive9.What does the underlined word “inevitable” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.unimaginable B.unbearable C.unavoidable D.unusual10.What can we infer from Andreas’s words?A.Rainfall has little to do with beer making.B.There is little production decrease in his area.C.More rain is needed to improve the situation.D.Rainfall pattern affects hop production.11.How did the researchers mainly carry out the research?A.Analyzing data.B.Conducting a survey.C.Doing experiments.D.Using logic thinking.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can now regulate (控制) e-cigarettes that contain artificial nicotine (尼古丁), a shift that could reduce the number of vaping (电子烟的) products available in America. A spending bill, which the U.S. passed, expanded the definition of an FDA-regulated “tobacco product” to include those that use lab-made nicotine, as well as traditional tobacco-originated nicotine. That update — while small on paper — could dramatically change the U.S. vaping industry.In addition to the smaller companies likely to be affected by the change, Puff Bar, a popular brand of disposable (一次性的) e-cigarette, could be hit tremendously. “With artificial nicotine no longer an alternative, the company’s future is once again uncertain”, said the Amy Willson, manager of the company.Reactions to the FDA’s new power have been predictably divided. Some in the vaping industry criticized theFDA for reducing the number of cigarette-alternatives (替代物) available in the U.S. “This bill ought to be called the Cigarette Protection Act, because the final result will be countless more Americans pushed away from nicotine vaping and back into traditional tobacco smoking,” Amanda Wheeler, president of the American Vapor Manufacturers Association, told Filter.But some large e-cigarette companies, including Juul, support the regulation of brands making artificial nicotine products. In a previous statement, a Juul spokesperson said that unlawful products designed to escape federal and state supervision (监督) would make harm reduction and a responsible e-vapor category difficult. The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids applauded taking steps to decrease youth vaping — a habit 11 percent of high school students reported in 2021, down from a high of 27.5 percent in 2019. “By stopping producers from using artificial nicotine to escape FDA regulation, Congress is taking a critical step to end this youth addiction crisis once and for all,” a spokesperson said in a statement.12.What can we learn about the policy issued by FDA?A.It is to reduce products with tobacco-originated nicotine.B.It may lead to the reduction of vaping products.C.It will bring great profits to big and popular companies.D.Most small companies have disappeared due to it.13.What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?A.The reasons for the regulation.B.The benefits of the regulation.C.The impacts of the regulation.D.The purposes of the regulation.14.Who may share a similar view with Amanda Wheeler?A.Amy Willson.B.Juul’s spokesperson.C.Organizers from The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.D.Regulators from FDA.15.What’s the best title of this passage?A.Regulating Man-made NicotineB.Stopping making Vaping ProductsC.Expanding the definition of nicotineD.Stopping smoking Traditional Cigarettes二、七选五The Millennials are next in line to run this crazy, messed-up world. There is, however, a serious problem with our generation that needs to be addressed, and that is our intense laziness. 16One of the most common reasons why our generation is lazy is because we grew up in an era when technology was starting to be linked to every aspect of our lives. 17 Computers, electronic players and many other technological advances are all examples. All of these technologies have aided our way of life, but they also have dulled our ability to think of answers for ourselves.Another common reason why our generation is lazy is due to the fact that some of us were not taught with proper work ethics (道德准则) and values as children. Parents, as well as teachers, taught us as children to use technology as much as possible because they themselves did not possess it when they were our age. However, doing this made us lazy. Our generation has had an incredibly hard time holding down simple jobs just because we are constantly on our phones and are ignoring our responsibilities. I understand the need to cure boredom with something, but technology is not the answer. 18 If our generation had better communication skills, then maybe our work ethic would be better as well.The biggest reason our generation is considered lazy is because many of us act very entitled (有资格的). Many of us act like we deserve everything without working for it. We were raised in a time when discipline (纪律) was starting to ease up and things were just handed to us. This has created many problems for our generation because we do not like it when something does not go our way or when we do not get something we desperately want. 19 Everyone has to have the latest and greatest piece of tech on the market (i.e., smartphones).20 I just want to point out some things I believe that we, the generation to next inherit (继承) this world, need to improve upon and revise. We are a lazy generation and that is partially our own fault for not exploring other possibilities of ways to handle the world as we grew up. I would like us to acknowledge these problems and try to find solutions if possible – and I do believe this is possible.A.We need to be able to work and communicate with each other more.B.These devices are incredibly expensive in our daily lives.C.It arises from many factors that existed when we were brought up.D.I am not attempting to criticize our generation.E.These problems mainly lie in our generation’s consistent desire for technology.F.It was to allow us to have a harder way of life.G.Thinking back, we can see how technology became widely used during our generation.三、完形填空My daughter Pat had been driving me everywhere since I moved back to Vermont after 20 years in Canada.30.A.unless B.after C.as D.until31.A.annoyance B.depression C.disappointment D.surprise32.A.quiet B.noisy C.awful D.stressful33.A.withdrew B.hesitated C.doubted D.complained34.A.sessions B.priorities C.cares D.favors35.A.lifespan B.career C.friendship D.purchase四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
