江苏省苏州市2024-2025学年高二上学期11月期中英语试题一、阅读理解When you volunteer through United Way, you’ re joining 1.5 million people who are giving back so others can get ahead. Use your time and talent to create social change where you work or live — join our community of game changers.If you are accepted to become a United Way volunteer, you will be required to complete the series of immunization (免疫) requirements listed below. It is requested that you complete all of your immunization requirements through your own healthcare provider. However, if this presents a financial hardship for you, Employee Health or Occupational Health may be able to assist with these requirements.V olunteer duties vary, but may include visiting and socializing with patients, helping withlight tasks such as sorting or filing, and assisting patients/visitors with wayfinding.V olunteers cannot perform any “hand-on” or clinical duties, perform the same job as staff members, or shadow or observe medical staff.We do not offer any research or internship opportunities.1.What is the purpose of the United Way?A.To inform volunteers to take the vaccines.B.To attract volunteers to make a difference.C.To create social change in the community.D.To provide an opportunity of internship. 2.What can be learned about immunization requirements?A.Two doses of MMR are necessary for Measles.B.TDaP should be shot at the age of 17 immediately.C.2 negative TB tests are given in prior 12 months.D.Hepatitis B Vaccine is only for regional volunteers.3.What are the volunteers expected to do?A.Assist dying patients file their wills.B.Direct the way for patients and visitors.C.Take medical workers’ place in case.D.Observe doctors in a clinical setting.In 2015, Brian Peterson, a car designer for Kia Motors, moved to Santa Ana, California, with his wife, Vanessa. There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris.In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project.So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs.However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent.Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless.4.What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris?A.He saw Faris had artistic talent.B.He read a book about love in action.C.He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting.D.He intended to found a nonprofitorganization.5.How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits?A.He donates it to charities.B.He uses it to expand his project.C.He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies.D.He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects.6.What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3?A.He believes in giving without accepting.B.He prefers to decide how the money should be spent.C.He helps people based on their personal needs.D.He funds them to develop art-related projects.7.What would be the best title for this passage?A.Painting for Homeless B.Art Can Cure HomelessnessC.The Story of Matt Faris D.Selling Portraits for CharityScientists from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HIPS) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences have designed a wristwatch that can measure essential chemicals in body sweat. Theirfindings were published in the journal ACS Nano.Sweat contains electrolytes (电解质), primarily potassium, sodium and calcium. The balance of these essential minerals is crucial for supporting muscle function, nerve health and regular heartbeat. The wristwatch collects sweat from the skin and analyzes it in real time using a sensor chip with sensitive membrane. When sweat enters the device, it will come into contact with the membrane that contains three tubes capable of measuring sodium, potassium and calcium levels respectively.Although they are not the first to invent sweat sensors, the Chinese researchers emphasized the wrist watch’s solid interface for long-term reliability. “It surpasses the stability of many other sensors by consistently monitoring human sweat for over six months,” said the lead researcher Huang Xingjiu.Since athletes use electrolyte drinks to counteract (抵制) the loss of energy and refill it, researchers in the study measured the sweat composition of these chemicals in athletes running long distances. The accuracy reached about 95 percent when compared to the standard detection method.“When there are electrolyte abnormalities, the device will remind users to supplement (补充) them quickly. The aim of developing this device is to provide warnings for electrolyte loss and reduce exercise-related injury risks.”For ordinary people, the traditional electrolyte test requires samples of body fluids taken in hospitals. The new wristwatch has the potential to serve as an alternative to needles for measuring electrolytes.The next goal of the research team is to design various sensitive membrane materials for monitoring more information. The researchers noted that compared to popular fitness watches on the market, the device they designed is larger and heavier, making it less comfortable to wear. However, they expect to develop wearable sweat sensors suitable for market applications in the next five years. The team of researchers also aims to adapt the device for environmental monitoring.8.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The working principle of the device.B.The composition of sweat.C.The function of a particular sensor.D.The balance of the minerals.9.Which of the following is the advantage of the wristwatch?A.accurate and popular.B.large and wearable.C.convenient and comfortable.D.reliable and stable.10.What does the author imply in the last paragraph?A.The wristwatch has no equal now.B.The product hasn’t hit the market yet.C.The researchers are content with the product.D.The device will be definitely put into extensive use.11.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To provide warnings for readers to reduce risks.B.To introduce a new product on monitoring health.C.To inform the readers of the importance of eletrolytes.D.To analyze the relationship between sweat and health.Victories are temporary in China’s fast-changing economy. Earlier this month Colin Huang, the founder of Pinduoduo, became China’s richest man. The company, founded in 2015, today is China’s third-largest e-commerce firm by sales, behind only JD.com and Alibaba.Mr Huang’s time atop China’s rich list was, however, brief. On August 26th Pinduoduo’s share price decreased by nearly 30% after it reported sales for the quarter from April to June fell short of the market’s high expectations and gave warning that a long-run decline in profitability was “unavoidable”.Pinduoduo’s misfortunes are set against a backdrop of weakening consumer spending in China. In June sales from the “618” shopping festival fell for the first time, despite a number of platforms extending their sales periods this year. A fierce price war is adding to the trouble. Visit any Chinese e-commerce site and you will be impressed by signs advertising huge discounts and promising the cheapest deals online. Competition has grown more intense because of attacks into e-commerce by short-video apps such as Douyin and Xiaohongshu. Some merchants are piling yet more pressure on the industry. Some Chinese e-commerce companies juice their sales by fining merchants for late deliveries or product mismatches. Last month hundreds of suppliers surrounded the offices of Temu, Pinduoduo’s foreign branch, in the southern city of Guangzhou to protest against such punishment.Pinduoduo may be hoping that international expansion will rescue it from deteriorating conditions at home. That will not be straightforward. Although the number of people using Temu, which launched in America in 2022, has rocketed, owing in no small part to the vast amounts it has spent on advertising, turning that into profit has proved trickier.What is more, America’s e-commerce Amazon is fighting back against the Chinese upstart. During its Prime Day sale in July it offered discounts of up to 70% on some products. It is also reportedly planning to launch a discount section on its site which will feature cheap items. 12.Why did Pinduoduo’s share price decrease sharply?A.China is experiencing a major economic boom.B.Colin Huang failed to run the company well.C.Sales for the second quarter didn’t meet the expectations.D.Consumers were unwilling to spend money on the platform.13.What difficulty is Pinduoduo faced with?A.The rapid rise of JD.com and Alibaba.B.The pressure from consumers and suppliers.C.The invasion of many overseas e-commerce giants.D.The intense price competition and weak purchasing power.14.What does the underlined word “deteriorating” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Declining.B.Alarming.C.Increasing.D.Changing. 15.How does the author find Pinduoduo’s expansion of international market?A.Hopeful.B.Cautious.C.Unclear.D.Favourable.People are constantly bombarded (轰炸) with unrealistic and potentially harmful images of “ideal” body types. 16 It’s also important to learn what your body can physically do and become comfortable. In order to accept your body, it’s important to get in touch with both of these aspects of your body on their own terms.17 This means not trying to change who you are or focus on qualities you don’t like. Learn to enjoy your body —— how you move, feel, and get around. Let go of how you used to look, especially if your body has undergone changes from injuries, or medical conditions. Be kind to your body as it is right now.Replace negative thoughts with positive ones. As soon as you notice yourself starting to have a negative thought, replace it with something positive about yourself. Give yourself time to get into the habit of thinking positively. Try starting each day by thinking a few positive thoughts.18Compare yourself only to yourself. 19 There’s no point in comparing yourself to others, regardless of whether the person is a celebrity or classmate sitting next to you. Instead, compare yourself in terms of how you’ ve progressed over time, now that you’ve created your own realistic goals. For example, you might think to yourself that you’ve improved your appearance compared to a few years ago.Know when to seek help. Understand that nearly everyone struggles to maintain positive body image all the time and it’s normal to have ups and downs. 20 There are various signs that your body issues are severe and require professional help.A.Accept your body as it is.B.Identify what you like about your body and appearance.C.Negative thoughts do nothing to improve your self-image.D.The world would be a pretty boring place if we all looked the same.E.But you should also honestly consider if you need to speak with a counselor, or specialist. F.This can make it difficult to accept, love, and feel confident in your own body, which is critical. G.Remind yourself of these thoughts throughout the day when you start feeling critical of yourself.二、完形填空Ever since I was little, the doctors told my parents that someday I would need hearing aids. Of all my 21 my ears are the ones I hate the most. Although my hearing was getting22 I hadn’t told anyone.

When the ear doctor first pulled thehearing aids out for me, I groaned.Normal aids usually have a part that wraps around the outer ear to hold the inner bud 27 . But since I didn’t have outer ears, they had to put the earbuds on this heavy-duty headband to wrap around the back of my 28 . I could imagine how strange I’d look — my classmates would laugh at me, and even my teachers, my friends would be 29 at me!“Can’t wear that, Mom; I’ll look like Lobot!” I complained.“Lobot?” The ear doctor smiled as he looked at the headphones and made some 30 . “The Empire Strikes Back? The bald guy?”“You know Star Wars stuff?” I asked. “Hey, Lobot’s cool,” said he, 31 the earphones on my head carefully. “There you go. So how’s that?”“It’s so quiet in my ears and I don’t hear that noise anymore! Thanks so much, Dr. James!”I answered 32 .The first day I showed up at school with the hearing aids, I thought kids would make a big 33 about it. But no one did. Now that I look back, I don’t know why I was so 34 about it all this time.

Some take over-the- counter (非非非非) medicines such as aspirin while others try popular home remedies (非非) like herbal tea or chicken soup. Yet here is the tough truth about the common cold: nothing really cures it.So why do people sometimes believe that their remedies work? According to James Taylor, professor at the University of Washington, colds usually go away on their own in about a week, improving a little each day after symptoms peak, so it’s easy to believe it’s medicine rather than time that deserves the credit, USA Today reported.It still seems hard to believe that we can deal with more serious diseases yet are powerless against something so common as a cold. Recently, scientists came closer to figuring out why. To understand it, you first need to know how antiviral (非非非非) drugs work. They attack the virus by attaching to and changing the surface structures of the virus. To do that, the drug must fit and lock into the virus like the right piece of a jigsaw (非非), which means scientists have to identify the virus and build a 3-D model to study its surface before they can design an antiviral drug that is effective enough.The two cold viruses that scientists had long known about were rhinovirus (非非非) A and B. But they didn’t find out about the existence of a third virus, rhinovirus C, until 2006. All three of them contribute to the common cold, but drugs that work well against rhinovirus A and B have little effect when used against C.“This explains most of the previous failures of drug trials against rhinovirus,” study leader Professor Ann Palmenberg at University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, told Science Daily.Now, more than 10 years after the discovery of rhinovirus C, scientists have finally built a highly-detailed 3-D model of the virus, showing that the surface of the virus is, as expected, different from that of other cold viruses.With the model in hand, hopefully a real cure for a common cold is on its way. Soon, we may no longer have to waste our money on medicines that don’t really work.(1)What does the author think of popular remedies for a common cold?A.They are quite effective.B.They are slightly helpful.C.They still need to be improved.D.They actually have no effect.(2)How do antiviral drugs work?A.By breaking up cold viruses directly.B.By changing the surface structures of the cold viruses.C.By preventing colds from developing into serious diseases.D.By absorbing different kinds of cold viruses at the same time.(3)What can we infer from the passage?A.The surface of cold viruses looks quite similar.B.Scientists have already found a cure for the common cold.C.Scientists were not aware of the existence of rhinovirus C until recently.D.Knowing the structure of cold viruses is the key to developing an effective cure.(4)What is the best title for this passage?A.Drugs against cold virusesB.Helpful home remediesC.No current cure for common coldD.Research on cold viruses13.(6分)Wood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material.It is cheap,durable,easily available,and most importantly,environmentally sustainable.The one thing it is not,is transparent! Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology the material may even be able to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher rs Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The team began by pulling out the wood’s lignin(木质素).The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物)and baked at a temperature of 158°F for four hours.The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also,almost transparent.The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips,the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications.The researchers,who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11,picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light,or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light withoutsacrificing privacy.Wood that allows light to pass through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings. Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels.The semitransparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor,thus resulting in better solar efficiency.Additionally,substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturers improve their carbon footprint and lower the cost.They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective to make and easy to use.1.What does the underlined part“that feature”in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Cheap.B.Durable.C.Sustainable.D.Transparent.2.Which of the following is true according to the text?A.Berglund got the idea of transparent wood while making paper.B.Varying the amount of the polymer changes the wood’s hardness.C.The transparent wood would be used only for homes and buildings.D.The cost of making the transparent wood still needs to be cut down.3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.The bright future of the transparent wood.B.The wood’s role in the design of solar panels.C.The disadvantages of the currently used glass.D.Solar energy manufacturers’ carbon footprint.三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)14.(10分)When big news breaks,it's easy to get caught up in following the story online.The Internet can be a place to find useful information. 1 Helping kids understand the news and how to separate fact from fiction is an important job for parents and educators.Here’s some advice that parents can offer kids to help them be quicker to judge as they consume news online.2 In the rush to cover stories,reporters make mistakes,officials don't always have correct information and tidbits(八卦新闻)that sound reasonable often get passed around before anyone has checked them for accuracy.Use social media wisely.Some say Twitter is a great source of news in the first few minutes of a tragedy. 3 On the other hand,Facebook can be a great way to connect with friends affected by events in the news and to spread personal news within a more limited circle.Be skeptical. 4 After the Boston Marathon bombing,NBC Sports reported that some runners kept running all the way to the hospital to donate blood for the victims.Not true.There are plenty of websites devoted to exposing false news stories.The Washington Post also has a Fact Checker column that delivers claims made by public officials and politicians.Visit them to find out if a story is true.Keep it age-appropriate.Kids aren’t always ready to digest big tragic news--especially if the news is about kids,such as school shootings or abuses.The constant repetition of information can be confusing for younger kids,and at the beginning of a news event,parents might not be able to offer any correct answers. 5A.Remember,breaking news is often wrong.B.It also can be the source of misinformation.C.If something sounds too good to be true,it probably is.D.The government should take measures to prevent false news.E.However,after that it just becomes messy and largely inaccurate.F.With social media at your fingertips,it's convenient to express your opinion.G.Kids who are eager to learn more about certain events can check kid-guided news sources.四、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分20分)15.(20分)In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the Animals at Night.

Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm.26 by miles of winding stone walls,the house provided endless hours of 27 for a city kid.I can still remember one afternoon 28 I was eight years old.I’d wanted more than anything to be29 to climb the walls surrounding the property.The walls were old;some stones were 30 ,others loose.Still,my yearning(向往)to scramble(攀登)across those walls 31 so strong that finally,one spring afternoon,I took all my 32 and entered the living room,where the 33 had gathered after Sunday dinner.“I,I want to climb the stone walls,”I said hesitantly(犹豫地).34 a chorus(异口同声) went up from the women in the room.“Heavens,no!”they cried,“You’ll hurt yourself!”I wasn’t too 35 ;the 36 was just as I’d expected.Just 37 I would leave the room,I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice.“Now wait a minute.”I heard him say,“Let the boy climb the stone walls.He has to learn to do things 38 ”.For the next two hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life.Later I told my grandfather about my 39 .I’ll never forget what he said.“Fred,”he said,smiling,“you made this day a (an) 40 day just by being yourself.Always remember,there’s only one person in this whole world like you,and I like you 41 as you are.”Many years have passed 42 then,and today I’m a computer(主持人)in the television program 43 “Miste r Rogers’ Neighborhood”,seen by millions of children.There have been 44 over the years,but one thing remains the same:my 45 left to children at the end of almost every visit.“There’s only one person in this whole world like you,”The kids can hear me say,“and people would like you exactly as you are.”26.A.Covered B.Surrounded C.Extended D.Spread27.A.fruit B.richness C.fun D.wonder28.A.that B.when C.as D.which29.A.allowed B.regretted

life happen to you,goals allow you to make your life happen.Successful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeed.By setting goals you are taking control of your life.It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go.Think of it this way.There are two drivers.One has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a map.She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns.The other driver has no goal or destination or map.She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver,but she drives without an aim around,never getting anywhere,just using up gas and oil.Which driver do you want to be?Winners in life set goals and follow through on them.Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals.Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident.Goals are n’t difficult to set―and they aren’t difficult to reach.It’s up to you to find out what your goals and ideals (理想)really are.Research tells us that when we write a goal down,we are more likely to achieve.Written goals can be reviewed regularly,and have more power.Like a contract with yourself,they are harder to neglect(忽视)or forget.Also when you write your goals in a particular way,you are able to make yourself be continuously alert(警觉)to situations that will further your goals.46.The writer gave the example of two drivers to show .A.how stupid the first driver wasB.the importance of having a map and right directionC.how stupid the second driver wasD.the importance of setting goals47.According to the passage,successful people are different from unsuccessful ones because.A.the successful people set goals for everything and can get help from othersB.the unsuccessful people always set unrealistic plans for themselvesC.the successful people set goals in their lives and make plans to carry it outD.the unsuccessful people make plans for everything but can not work hard48.According to the passage,the most important thing in realizing one’s ideal is to.A.try to be realistic about one’s abilityB.let others help him or her to make his or her dream come trueC.let others understand him or her first,then work together with themD.have a clear mind of what he or she wants in life49.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Goals can make you gain everything you want in lifeB.Only successful people can be happyC.If you want to succeed,you need a set long―term goals instead of short―term GoalsD.When we put our goal down on papers,we are more likely to succeed50.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Goals help you succeed B.How to succeedC.Why we always failed D.A research on setting goalsBAre the British people Europeans?This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians,who tend to think of all white men as Europeans.But the British,when they are in Britain,do not regard themselves as Europeans.The Europeans,to them,are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of English Channel,who have never learnt how to speak English.Europe is “the Continent”:a place full of interests for English tourists,but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved.Thus,although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe,yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very,very insular(孤立的).They feel,in many ways,different from therest of Europe,and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them,or even to understand them,in time of need.Where did the British people come from?This is quite interesting question,since they are a mixture of many different races(种族),and all these races invaded(入侵)Britain at various times from Europe.Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B.C.,but there had been at least three invasions before that.The first of these was by a dark―haired Mediterranean race called Iberians.The other two were by Celtic tribes(部落):first the Gaels,whose descendants(后裔)are the modern Scots and Irish,some of whom still speak the Gaelic language;secondly the Britons,who gave their name to the whole island of Britain.These were the people whom the Romans conquered.The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of civilization,but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers,so the British race survived until the overthrow(颠覆)of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”―the numerous Germanic tribes which overran(侵占)the whole of Western Europe.51.The purpose of the passage is to .A.talk about EuropeansB.discuss the origin of British peopleC.argue for the superiority of British peopleD.compare the Europeans with Africans and Asians52.It can be known from the passage that .A.all the people think white people are EuropeansB.there are many Africans and Asians living in EuropeC.white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and AsiansD.the British people think of themselves as Europeans53.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.Europeans are those who are unable to speak EnglishB.those who invaded Britain came from the other side of the English ChannelC.Britain is a place full of interests for those excitable foreignersD.Britain is the source of almost all the wars in Europe54.Why do the Britain people feel insular?A.Because they are different from those people in the ContinentB.Because they sometimes fail to support the continent countries in time of needC.Because they are separated geographically from the ContinentD.Because they are considered different to understand55.Which of the following is most likely to be discussed after this passage?A.The Germanic tribes which invaded BritainB.The civilization the Romans brought to BritainC.The Romans who did not settle in BritainD.The survival of the British people in the first century B.C.CSouth Korean filmsBeijing audience can view five South Korean films,all with Chinese

Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me."Soon the water rose to Smith's waist. At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck. "Grab the rope, "shouted the pilot. "I'll pull you up.""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me. "But after hours of struggling with water, poor exhausted Smith drowned and went to his reward. As he arrived at the Pearly Gates, Smith met God and complained about this.

Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.63. You can see the book because_______.A. your eyes are close to itB. it reflects some of the sunlightC. it has light of its ownD. your eyesight can get to it64. The underlined word “luminous” means_______.A. visibleB. all colorsC. giving off lightD. sunlight65. ________ have light of their own.A. The sun and the moonB. The stars and the earthC. The sun and the starsD. The moon and the earth66. Which of the following is true?A. All the things you can see give off light.B. Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.C. Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.D. The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.DMost of us know about the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Peace Prize, but few of us know anything about the man who set them up. His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize?Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund. He wanted the interest from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from.Alfred Nobel had given his whole life to his studies and work and to the benefits of mankind. He made money all by his own efforts, but he left the world share his wealth. His inventions and wealth stay with the world for ever.67. Alfred’s business was _____.A. making and selling explosivesB. not making and selling weaponsC. making explosives and selling weaponsD. making weapons and selling explosives68. Nobel wanted to set up the Nobel Peace Prize because _____.A. he made enough moneyB. he liked to live in a peaceful worldC. he hated warD. he wanted to get more interest from the fund69.

Among the various renewable energy sources, solar power has gained significant attention. Solar power is generated by converting sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. This clean and sustainable energy source has numerous advantages, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, providing energy security, and promoting economic growth.Solar power systems can be installed on residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. The most common type of solar power system is the photovoltaic (PV) system, which consists of solar panels, inverters, and batteries. Solar panels convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted into alternating current (AC) electricity by the inverter. Batteries are used to store excess electricity for use during periods when sunlight is not available.However, there are also challenges associated with the widespread adoption of solar power. One of the main challenges is the high initial cost of installing solar panels. Another challenge is the intermittency of solar power, as it is dependent on sunlight availability. Additionally, the disposal of solar panels at the end of their lifespan can pose environmental risks.Despite these challenges, the potential benefits of solar power make it a promising solution to our energy needs. As technology advances and costs decrease, the future of solar power looks bright.16. The passage mainly discusses:A. The advantages of solar power.B. The challenges of solar power.C. The history of solar power.D. The installation of solar power systems.17. What is the main function of solar panels in a solar power system?A. To store electricity.B.

Which of the following is NOT a challenge associated with the widespread adoption of solar power?A. High initial cost.B. Intermittency of solar power.C. Environmental risks.D. Lack of sunlight.19. What is the author's attitude towards the future of solar power?A. SkepticalB. OptimisticC. IndifferentD. Critical20. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To inform the reader about solar power.B. To persuade the reader to use solar power.C. To compare solar power with other renewable energy sources.D. To encourage the reader to install solar panels.。

Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm.26 by miles of winding stone walls,the house provided endless hours of 27 for a city kid.I can still remember one afternoon 28 I was eight years old.I’d wanted more than anything to be 29 to climb the walls surrounding the property.The walls were old;some stones were 30 ,others loose.Still,my yearning (向往)to scramble(攀登)across those walls 31 so strong that finally,one spring afternoon,I took all my 32 and entered the living room,where the 33 had gathered after Sunday dinner.“I,I want to climb the stone walls,”I said hesitantly(犹豫地).34 a chorus(异口同声) went up from the women in the room.“Heavens,no!”they cried,“You’ll hurt yourself!”I wasn’t too 35 ;the 36 was just as I’d expected.Just 37 I would leave the room,I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice.“Now wait a minute.”I heard him say,“Let the boy climb the stone walls.He has to learn to do things 38 ”.For the next two hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life.Later I told my grandfather about my 39 .I’ll never forget what he said.“Fred,”he said,smiling,“you made this day a (an) 40 day just by being yourself.Always remember,there’s only one person in this whole world like you,and I like you 41 as you are.”Many years have passed 42 then,and today I’m a computer(主持人)in the television program 43 “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood”,seen by millions of children.There have been 44 over the years,but one thing remains the same:my 45 left to children at the end of almost every visit.“There’s only one person in this whole world like you,”The kids can hear me say,“and people would like you exactly as you are.”26.A.Covered B.Surrounded C.Extended D.Spread27.A.fruit B.richness C.fun D.wonder28.A.that B.when C.as D.which29.A.allowed B.regretted

life happen to you,goals allow you to make your life happen.Successful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeed.By setting goals you are taking control of your life.It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go.Think of it this way.There are two drivers.One has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a map.She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns.The other driver has no goal or destination or map.She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver,but she drives without an aim around,never getting anywhere,just using up gas and oil.Which driver do you want to be?Winners in life set goals and follow through on them.Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals.Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident.Goals are n’t difficult to set―and they aren’t difficult to reach.It’s up to you to find out what your goals and ideals(理想)really are.Research tells us that when we write a goal down,we are more likely to achieve.Written goals can be reviewedregularly,and have more power.Like a contract with yourself,they are harder to neglect(忽视)or forget.Also when you write your goals in a particular way,you are able to make yourself be continuously alert(警觉)to situations that will further your goals.46.The writer gave the example of two drivers to show .A.how stupid the first driver wasB.the importance of having a map and right directionC.how stupid the second driver wasD.the importance of

a strange question to Africans and Asians,who tend to think of all white men as Europeans.But the British,when they are in Britain,do not regard themselves as Europeans.TheEuropeans,to them,are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of English Channel,who have never learnt how to speak English.Europe is “the Continent”:a place full of interests for English tourists,but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved.Thus,although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe,yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very,very insular(孤立的).They feel,in many ways,different from the rest of Europe,and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them,or even to understand them,in time of need.Where did the British people come from?This is quite interesting question,since they are a mixture of many different races(种族),and all these races invaded(入侵)Britain at various times from Europe.Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B.C.,but there had been at least three invasions before that.The first of these was by a dark―haired Mediterranean race called Iberians.The other two were by Celtic tribes(部落):first the Gaels,whose descendants(后裔)are the modern Scots and Irish,some of whom still speak the Gaelic language;secondly the Britons,who gave their name to the whole island of Britain.These were the people whom the Romans conquered.The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of civilization,but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers,so the British race survived until the overthrow(颠覆)of the Roman Empire by the“barbarians”―the numerous Germanic tribes which overran(侵占)the whole of Western Europe.51.The purpose

different from those people in the ContinentB.Because they sometimes fail to support the continent countries in time of needC.Because they are separated geographically from the ContinentD.Because they are considered different to understand55.Which of the following is most likely to be discussed after this passage?A.The Germanic tribes which invaded BritainB.The civilization the Romans brought to
