浙江省杭州2022-2023学年高二下学期3月月考英语试题含解析

12.Ensuring every chilห้องสมุดไป่ตู้ equal rights to education is _____the key to the elimination of inequality across the world lies.
A.thatB.whatC.whetherD.where
【答案】D
【答案】infectious##nfectious
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：笑是最具感染力的表达方式之一。根据句意和首字母提示可知，此处填形容词infectious“感染的”，放在expressions前作定语，故填infectious。
3.S________nothing, he walked right into the trap.（根据首字母单词拼写）
【点睛】名词性从句考查的关键是连接词的选用和语序，因此，我们首先要搞清从句的性质，掌握各连接词的用法，在此基础上判断．此外，关注名词性从句用陈述语序．题干中is being accepted 是谓语动词，前面是主语从句，第一个空用that引导，因为主语从句中不缺少成分，也不需要翻译，第二个空是be动词后面的表语从句的引导词，表示"职业"，用whatever，去掉逗号中间插入的部分可知，is前的主语从句"girls can be whatever they would like to be"从意思到成分都是完整的，故选择在名词性从句中不担任成分，无意义的that，
14.________leaves the classroom last should turn off the lights.
A.WhichB.WhoC.WhicheverD.Whoever

四川省蓬溪中学校2023-2024学年高二下学期3月月考英语试卷(含答案)

I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices and truly communicate with others.On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule — no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti－technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think thereideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion.I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversations and challenges, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for t he change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.4．Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______.A.discussion topicsB.the course materialC.the author’s class ruleD.others’ misuse of technology5．What does the underlined word “engage” in Paragraph 4 probably mean？A. Accept.B. Explore.C. Change.D. Reject.6．According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______.A.affect students’ concentration on cou rse evaluationsB.encourage students to have in—depth conversationsC.help students to better understand complex themesD.keep students from doing independent thinking7．What can be inferred from the last paragraph？A.The author is quite stubborn.B.The author will give up teaching history.C.The author will change his teaching plan soon.D.The author values technology-free dialogue in his class.With the improvement of privacy protection awareness, everyone has questions about the telephone address, ID card information and so on. This visible privacy has been particularly concerned, but for chat photos and original pictures, it has not attracted enough attention. The topic “How much privacy can a photo reveal” has been trending on Sina Weibo, sparking concern and heated discussion about privacy awareness. In group chats, some people may post their original photos. But that may give away their home address and other information.Images often contain a lot of information and various traces left by digital cameras or photo manipulation (处理) software. This data, called Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF), is a key tool for many professionals. It can detail whether the photographer used a flash, which digital effects were applied to a picture and when the photo was taken. EXIF can also contain the precise GPS coordinates (坐标) of the location where a photo was taken, according to CNN. If you take a landscape picture from your window and send the original picture to a group chat, it means that you are releasing your location data to all strangers in the group. They may even accurately infer your house number by analyzing the shooting time and angle.Not just in a group chat, sending an image in a text message, email, or other delivery tools will also include the accompanying information. So how do we protect our privacy when sending photos? The most effective way is to avoid sending original photos in group chats. If it’s necessary, try not to tap the “original picture”. However, photos sent by WeChatMoments are automatically pressed by the system, and they travel without location and other information. To solve the problem at its root, we can delete and remove a picture’s EXIF data on a computer. If you are using an iOS smartphone, you can turn off location services for the camera in the privacy settings. If you’re using an Android device, the settings vary. Typically, you can go to the setting menu and switch the services off for the camera, according to CTV News. There is one more thing you can do — photoshop your photos before you share them. What comes with your edited images is photos without stored location data.8．What is the function of the first paragraph？A.To explain the meaning of privacy protection.B.To lead to the topic of privacy protection.C.To describe people’s concern about privacy.D.To tell the readers the importance of privacy.9．Why is EXIF so important？A.It can be used as a flash for the photographer.B.It may apply digital effects to a picture.C.It includes the home address of the viewers.D.It provides a photo’s shooting time and place.10．How can we protect privacy when sharing photos？A.By switching off location services for Wechat.B.By sending out their EXIF data on our phone.C.By editing the photos with photo editing apps.D.By turning off Internet connection when taking photos.11．What is probably the best title for the passage？A.Photo Privacy ProtectionB.The Importance of Protecting PhotosC.The Privacy a Photo RevealsD.Getting Information from PhotosA new report from the U.K. says more than 1 in 5 teens there spends five hours or more per day on social media. And the heavier users of social media get to bed later and get poorer sleep quality. The new study was based on self-reported survey data from nearly 12,000 teenage p articipants in the U. K.’s Millennium Cohort Study.Megan Moreno, a researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, says social media is too often described as either entirely good or bad, when the reality is more complicated for teens. "Social media may have its problems, but it is the way that they stay in touch with each other," she says.Perhaps unsurprisingly, the study found a link between high social media usage and poor sleep patterns. Especially teens who are heavier users of social media go to sleep later. And the researchers note late bedtime is linked with poorer academic and mental health consequences.Holly Scott, a researcher at the University of Glasgow, isn't sounding the alarm. She says, "It's easy to look at the results of this and think, 'We should just get teenagers to spend less time on social media.' I think that's an understandable response, but what I really encourage people to do is look beyond that." She says people should pay attention to the important emotional, cognitive(认知的) and social factors when teenagers are using social media.Scott stresses that the study is pointing to a connection between social media and poor sleep, but not necessarily explaining cause and effect."Certainly some teens do say they struggle to get away from social media at night—they might be worried about missing out on fun, or affecting their friends by not answering messages—and they stay up late for that," she says. "As for some of those young people, they have a naturally later body clock and they are passing their free time at night on social media until they're ready to fall asleep."12．What's the new study intended to do in the U.K.?A. To find the benefits of using social media.B. To know the effects of using social media.C. To promote the development of social media.D. To prove the growing popularity of social media.13．What's Megan Moreno's attitude towards social media?A. Positive.B. Doubtful.C. Objective.D. Confused.14．What does Holly Scott encourage people to do?A. Make better use of social media.B. Spend less time on social media.C. Study how social media influences teens.D. Understand why teens like using social media.15．In which section of a newspaper does this passage most probably appear?A.Health.cation.C. Science.D.Entertainment,二、七选五16．Building up your confidence not only helps feel good about yourself but also helpsyou leave a good impression on others. ①______ Here are some tips that may help you achieve it.Make sure to present yourself well. ②______Shower daily, brush your teeth, fix your hair and dress for confidence. You don’t have to buy a whole new wardrobe to feel better. As long as you’re clean, comfortable and feel good, you’ve set up for confidence!Perfect your posture.

And to top it off, having confident body language has been linked to lower levels of stress, too.④______You will be surprised how even the smallest of smiles can disarm many a social situation and make everyone feel more comfortable.

Our eyes are windows to the soul, and our gaze (凝视) showcases our attention and feelings. Eye contact is a subtle change, but it can work wonders on how other people perceive you.

Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩).In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive.Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种)known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months.It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!26. Which of the following best explains the underlined word “A border collie”?A. a parrot which is betterB. a dog which is foolishC. a dog which is smarterD. a dog which is better27. From paragraph 2 we know that __ .A. animals are as clever as human beingsB. dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzeesC. dogs have similar 'learning abilities as 3-year-old childrenD. chimpanzees have very good word-learning skills28. Both experiments show that .A. Rico is smart enough to get all commands rightB. Rico can recognize different things including toysC. Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematicsD. Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them29. Which of the following statements is true?A. The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities.B. The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects.C. Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training.D. Rico is born to understand its owner's commands.30. What does the writer want to tell us?A. To be friendly to your dog.B. To train your dog.C. To talk to your dog.D. To be careful with your dog.BIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to knowit. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to thinkthat he is. That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about, Itis the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American calledArthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He gotmarried and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outsideNew York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand wenthorseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants,Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for theirnew neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish this race becauseone was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wifewhen they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved backto an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things justto keep up with rich life--style of their neighbours. He saw the funnyside of it and started to write a series of short stories, He calledit ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common nam e in the United States.’ Keeping up with the Joneses’ came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.31. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ______.A. want others to know or to think that they are richB. want to be as rich as their neighboursC. don’t want others to know they are richD. want to be happy32. It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to ________.A. live outside New York CityB. live in New York CityC. live in apartmentsD. have many neighbours33. The underlined word “neighbourhood” in the second paragraph means ________.A. a person who lives near anotherB. people living in an areaC. an area in another town or cityD. an area near the place referred to 34. Arthur Momand used the name ‘Jones’ in his series of short stories because’ Jones’ is ________.A. an important nameB. a popular name in the United StatesC. his neighbour’s nameD. not a good name35. According to the writer, it is to keep up with the Joneses.A. correctB. impossibleC. interestingD. goodCThe way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment , self - improvement.Ask a bachelor(单身汉) why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishingfeatures.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three - day vacation. I d on’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.36．According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _______ .A. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleB. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageC. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitementD. he is unwilling to take on family responsibilities 37．Raising children, in the author’s opinion is ____________ .A. a moral dutyB. a rewarding taskC. a thankless jobD. a source of inevitable pain38. From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from __________ .A. hatredB. prejudiceC. misunderstandingD. ignorance39．To understand what true happiness is one must ____________ .A. have as much fun as possible during one’s lifetimeB. be able to distinguish happiness from funC. make every effort to liberate oneself from painD. put up with pain under all circumstances40．What is the author trying to tell us?A. attaining happiness is necessary for everyone.B. It is important to make commitments.C. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain．D. It is pain that leads to happiness.DBoys’ schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance andmusic.Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity (男子气概), the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to be consistent to a stereotype, a US study says.Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their abilities to express their emotions, rather than feeling they had to obey to the “boy code” of hiding their emotions to be a “real man”.The findings of the study are against the received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.Tony Little, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being ignored by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.“But in single-sex schools teachers can adjust lessons to boys’ learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom”, wrote the study’s author, Abigail James of the University of Virginia.Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with “boy-foc used” approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have sharper vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given “hands-on” lessons where they are allowed to walk around. “Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine (女性的) and prefer the modern type in which violence and sexism are major themes,” James wrote.Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to give in to a stereotype(陈词滥调) that men should be “masterful and in charge” in relationships. “In mixed schools boys feel pressed to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means,” the study reported.41. The author believes that a single-sex school would ____ .A. encourage boys to express their emotions more freelyB. force boys to hide their emotions to be “real men”C. help to form masculine aggressiveness in boysD. naturally place emphasis on the traditional image of a man to boys42. What does Tony Little say about the British education system?A. It fails more boys than girls academically.B. It focuses more on mixed school education.C. It places more pressure on boys than on girls.D. It fails to give boys the attention they need.43. It is commonly believed that in a mixed school boys _____ .A. grow up more healthilyB. perform relatively betterC. behave more responsiblyD. receive a better education44. According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is _____.A. boys can focus on their lessons without being absent-mindedB. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested inC. teaching can be designed to promote boys’ team spiritD. teaching can be adapted to suit the characteristics of boys45. Which of the following is the characteristic of boys according toAbigail James’ report?A. They have sharper vision.B. They enjoy being in charge.C. They act the same to stereotypes.D. They are violent and sexist.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请根据下面需要志愿帮助的信息，找出能够为他们提供帮助的援助者。

AThe orderly came back in a few minutes with a rifle（）and some Burmans （缅甸人）. He told us that the elephant was in the rice fields below, only a few hundred yards away. As I started forward practically the whole population of the quarter flocked out of the houses and followed me. They had seen the rifle and were all shouting excitedly that I was going to shoot the elephant. It was fun to them, as it would be to an English crowd; besides, they wanted the meat. It made me a little uneasy. I had no intention of shooting the elephant—I had merely sent for the rifle to defend myself—and it is always uneasy to have a crowd following you.I marched down the hill, looking and feeling a fool, with the rifle over my shoulder and an ever-growing army of people knocking and pushing at my heels. Beyond the huts（小木屋）there was a rice field a thousand yards across, muddy from the first rains. The elephant was standing eight yards from the road. He took not the slightest notice of the crowd. He was tearing up bunches of grass, beating them against his knees to clean them and feeding them into his mouth.As soon as I saw the elephant I knew with perfect certainty that I ought not to shoot him. It is a serious matter to shoot a working elephant — it is comparable to destroying a huge and costly piece of machinery. There, peacefully eating, the elephant looked no more dangerous than a cow. I thought then and I think now that his attack of “must” was already passing off; in which case he would merely wander harmlessly about. Moreover, I did not in the least want to shoot him.But at that moment I glanced round at the crowd that had followed me. It was a huge crowd, two thousand at least and growing every minute.I looked at the sea of the faces above the colorful clothes—faces all happy and excited over this bit of fun, all certain that the elephant was going to be shot. They were watching me as they would watch a magician about to perform a trick. They did not like me. But with the magical rifle in my hands I was momentarily worth watching. And suddenly I realized that I should have to shoot the elephant after all. The people expected it of me and I had got to do it; I could feel their two thousand wills pressing me forward. And it was at this moment that I first felt the hollowness（空洞）, the uselessness of the white man's control in the East. Here was I, standing in front of the unarmed crowds—seemingly the leading actor; but in reality only a puppet (傀儡). I understood in this moment that when the white man turns ruler of complete power it is his own freedom that he destroys.21. The people were glad to think the elephant was to be shot mainly because ______.A.it had damaged their homes and cropsB.it would provide them with meatC.it would make them feel entertainedD.it was spoiling their rice fields22. When the writer saw the elephant he felt_____________. .A.foolishB.afraidC.pitifulD.confident23. The writer realized that he had to shoot the elephantbecause___________.A. shooting elephants is a serious problemB. everybody expected it of himC. he did not wish to disappoint the rulersD. he had to show how guns are fired24. What does the writer intend to tells us when he tells the story?A. Leading actors are sometimes foolish puppets.B. Governments for white people are useless.C. Power can sometimes turn people imprisoned (监禁).D. Unarmed crowds are in control of everything.BCONGRATULATIONSWe’ve organized the following information to help you prepare for your arrival at Boston College.

However, we are so often absorbed in conversation that we lose sight of its true purpose and value.One important aspect of a good conversation is the words used to express thoughts and feelings. We are full of deep thoughts and strong emotions, yet our vocabularies are not enough for this expression, and many make little effort to expand that. Perhaps you see a movie that touches you deeply, yet you have the following conversation: “So, what did you think of the film?” “Oh, my God, it was so sad. I swear, I went through using up a box of tissues. I was in tears.”This dialogue is hardly an effective way of expressing feelings. It gives no sign of how or why the movie truly affected you. Such commonly-used phrases are certainly not enough to describe a deeply moving experience. However, not only must you try to avoid overused words, you must also be careful in your selection. The purpose of expanding vocabulary is not to use the largest or most impressive words, but to find those best suited.What is lacking in many conversations is the ability to talk toanother rather than just talking with that person. A thoughtful person will find that even in the most ordinary of conversations, there are a thousand questions waiting to be asked if you have courage and a desire for change, in order to seek out the person behind the mask. Good conversations should not be made up of nonsense, but of a meeting of two sharing the human condition. It should bring a purer understanding of others and offer a release of emotions more than drive away unpleasant thoughts or kill time. If we want,we can reach beyond the superficiality （肤浅）of talking into the vast kingdom of wisdom.28. The author used a movie as an example to show that ____________.A. overused words can’t fully express feelings of a speakerB. how and why a moving movie can deeply affect a speakerC. only expanding vocabulary can describe moving experiencesD. the largest or most impressive words should he used by speakers29. “Seek out the person behind the mask” in the last paragraph means___________.A. remove the mask of othersB. distrust the othe rs’ appearanceC. feel doubtful about the othersD. get the hidden truth beyond words30. According to the author, a good conversation is___________ .A. a way to free the unpleasant or pass timeB. a desire to raise more questionsC. an exchange of emotions and experiencesD. a route to the kingdom of wisdom31. The best title of the passage could be ___________.A. Vocabulary in ConversationsB. Art of ConversationsC. Ability in ConversationsD. Importance of Conversations DMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money). The purpose is to let the children learn from experiences at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly.The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.The object is to show young people that a budget demands a choice between spending and saving.Older children may be responsible enough tosave money for larger costs like clothing or electronics. Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance.A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest.Compounding works by paying interest on interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up.32. Giving an allowance, parents should consider all the following EXCEPT_______.A. how much the child should get each timeB. whether the child has made a budgetC. where the money really goesD. how often a child can get it33. The author of the passage holds the opinion that________.A. what children learn by handling allowances may be beneficial in the futureB. children can learn to set up their own business with their allowancesC. keeping allowances in the bank is the best choice for childrenD. it is not a good idea to pay children for housework at home34. The underlined words “compound interest” in the passage probably means ________.A. increasing curiosity to learn how to make more moneyB. stronger power to hold one’s attention to saving moneyC. money paid by the bank on your original money and the gain from itD. the sum of money that you earn from keeping your money in the bank35. What is the best title for the passage?A. Be Generous to Pay Your Children.B. Be Wise to Avoid Financial Mistakes.C.Saving Allowances Does Good to Children.D.Allowances Help Children Learn about Money.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

浙江省四校联考2023-2024学年高二下学期3月月考英语试卷(含答案)

浙江省四校联考2023-2024学年高二下学期3月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) supports a wide variety of programs to ensure that all youth have the skills and training they need to successfully make the switch to adulthood and careers. These programs include: ApprenticeshipApprenticeship is a combination of on-the-job training and related classroom instruction in which workers learn the practical and theoretical aspects of a highly skilled occupation. Applicants for apprenticeship programs must be at least 16 years old and meet the program sponsor's qualifications.YouthBuildYouthBuild programs give at-risk youth ages 16-24 the opportunity to transform their lives by earning their high school certificate of graduation or an equally state-recognized degree, learning to be community leaders, and preparing for college and other post-secondary training opportunities.Job CorpsJob Corps is the nation's largest and most comprehensive residential, education, and job training program for at-risk youth, ages 16 through 24. Private companies, state agencies, federal agencies, and unions recruit(招募) young people to participate in Job Corps, where they can train for and be placed in jobs.Youth ConnectionsThe Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014 is carrying out a comprehensive youth employment program for serving qualified youth, ages 14-24, who face barriers to education , training, and employment.For more information about youth programs, visit ETA's Division of Youth Services page. 1．What can participants do in the YouthBuild?A. Lead the state communities.B. Study theories of skilled work.C. Obtain a graduation certificate.D. Prepare for secondary training.2．Which program is suitable for teenagers aged 15?A. Apprenticeship.B. YouthBuild.C. Job Corps.D. Youth Connections.3．What is the author's purpose of writing the text?A. To improve youth training.B.To advertise for youth services.C. To transform youth development.D. To introduce ETA youth programs.In 2016, when I was on the graduate scheme (计划) at Deutsche Bank, Marie Inafidon, chief executive of Stemettes, who encourages girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) , was also working there. I didn't meet her at the time, but I did read an article about her and her career.Learning at 21 years old about the career of a young black woman' succeeding in a traditionally white male-dominated industry was one of the most influential things that ever happened to me. It gave me confidence that it was possible to do well in the office and work on personal external project at the same time.Role models can play a central role in shaping a young professional's career. They are especially important if you belong to an under-represented group for whom a lack of representation in the workplace can lead to feeling isolated and lacking in confidence. They can help those just starting out, whether or not they are a graduate as I was, to believe in their own abilities.There's a growing need to have accessible role models. Given the tendency to exaggerate (夸大) success stories, hearing from women who talk honestly about the challenges they have faced, either when starting a business or forming a new career path, is much more effective. A study revealed that 70 per cent of girls say they think differently about their futures after hearing from women role models.I'm frequently asked about what businesses could be doing to increase racial diversity in the workplace. A good starting point is to actively promote and support the voices of the people in the organisation that are leading positive change and inspiring others. This makes a real difference. Unlike the tokenism (装样子) I still come across, which results in individuals being made the lone representative for a group without real support from the organisation.Things came full circle for me when I interviewed Ms. Inafidon for my book in 2019. I was able to tell her of the incredible impact her passion and confidence had had on me as a graduate trainee and how grateful I would always be for that.4．What do we learn about Marie Inafidon?A. She became successful at 21.B. She was a trainee at Deutsche Bank.C. She encouraged girls to take up STEM-related work.D. She helped the author with her external project personally.5．Who can benefit most from role models in the work place according to the third paragraph?A. Experienced professionals.B. A graduate eager to succeed.C. People without special abilities.D. The young from an under-represented group. 6．What is effective in changing girls' mindset?A. Taking on challenging projects.B. Reading more made-up success stories.C. Starting their own business as early as possible.D. Listening to women role models share their experiences.7．What should businesses do to increase racial diversity in the workplace according to the author?A. Encourage positive opinions.B. Make more colored people authorities.C. Include more people of different races.D. Understand the true meaning of tokenism.New York University (NYU) surgeons have performed the world's first transplant of an entire human eye, an extraordinary addition to a face transplant, although it's far too soon to know if the man will ever see through his new left eye.An accident had destroyed most of Aaron James' face and one eye. His right eye still works. But the surgeons hoped replacing the missing one would produce better cosmetic (整容的) results for his new face. The NYU team is doing just that. James is recovering well from the dual (双重的) transplant last May and the donated eye looks remarkably healthy.Today, transplants of the cornea(眼角膜) are common to treat certain types of vision loss. But transplanting the whole eye—the eyeball, its blood supply, and the critical optic nerve(视神经) that must connect it to the brain-is considered a moonshot in the search to cure blindness.Whatever will happen next, James' surgery offers scientists a window into how the human eye tries to heal. "We're not claiming that we are going to restore sight," said Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez, who led the transplant. "But there's no doubt that we are one step closer."Some specialists had feared the eye would quickly become dry and wrinkled. However, when Rodriguez opened James' left eyelid, the donated eye was fat and full of liquid. Doctors see good blood flow and no sign of rejection.Now researchers have begun analyzing scans (扫描结果) of James' brain that detected some puzzling signals from that all-important but injured optic nerve. Dr. Jeffrey Goldberg, who has long studied how to make eye transplants a reality, called the surgery exciting. "It's an amazing confirmation of animal experiments that have kept transplanted eyes alive," he said.

That's exactly what the actress Selena Gomez has done in a bid to improve her mental health.She has spoken extensively about the relationship between her social media usage and mental well-being, recalling feeling like "an addict" as to becoming Instagram's most followed user in 2016. "Indeed, I regret quitting from social media that late", says she. "The unnecessary hate and comparisons went away once I put my phone down.”However, the increasing digitization (数字化) means that everything from paying a bill to even making a phone call is at the mercy of the internet. Actively opting (选择) out of the internet becomes a matter of privilege. Ms Gomez's multi-millionaire status has allowed her to take the "social” out of social media. The fact that she's still the second most-followed woman on Instagram suggests it's entirely possible to maintain a significant web profile to promote various projects by way of a dedicated team—without being exposed to the cruel comments.It goes without saying that this is fundamentally different from how the rest of us without beauty deals and films to publicize use the likes of Instagram and Twitter, but even the concept of a digital detox (戒瘾) requires having a device and connectivity to choose to disconnect from.The UK's digital divide has worsened over the past two years, leaving poorer families without broadband connections in their homes. Digital exclusion (数字隔绝) is a major threat to wider societal equality in the UK.Consequently, it's worth bearing in mind that while deleting all social media accounts will undoubtedly make some feel infinitely better, many other people benefit from the strong sense of community that sharing platforms can develop. Greater resources and initiatives are needed to provide the underprivileged with the connectivity they desperately need to learn, work and live. It's crucial that people feeling social media is harmful to their mental health are allowed to switch off and for those living in digital exclusion to be able to switch on primarily.12．What do we learn about the actress Selena Gomez in the past four and a half years?A. She has withdrawn from social media.B. She has won Instagram's most followers.C. She has had worsening mental problems.D. She has succeeded in a bid on the internet.13．Why does actively opting out of using the internet become a matter of privilege?A. Most people think that digital exclusion promotes societal equality in the UK.B. Most people can hardly abandon the web while avoiding hate and comparisons.C. Most people can hardly get by without the internet due to growing digitization.D. Most people have been seriously addicted to the web without being aware of it. 14．What is stressed concerning social media platforms in the last paragraph?A. They are beneficial to people's mental health.B. They create a virtual community on the internet.C. They help many people feel connected with others.D. They provide a necessary device for a digital detox.15．What is the author's attitude towards social media platforms?A. Subjective.B. Objective.C. Disapproving.D. Favorable.二、七选五16．In our fast-paced world, where speed and instant results often steal the spotlight, there's a quiet but great virtue that often goes unnoticed—the courage to go slow. It may sound abnormal, but instead of rushing to implement (实施), we need to slow down. This is particularly relevant when we start the journey of developing instructional strategies. ①_____●Start, add and abandon habits. Understand that habit formation takes time and requires testing, reflecting, and adapting. Set systems that focus you and your team and organization on the implementation and impact on a few key practices. ②_____●Push consistency over intensity. Focus on maintaining consistent effort rather than pushing for rapid, unsustainable changes. ③_____ This occurs because the lasting habits that are selected are implemented every day and reflected upon routinely.●④_____ Celebrate each little victory along the way. These moments of success, no matter how minor, are the building blocks of lasting change.●Seek support. Surround yourself with individuals who support your journey and value the importance of patience. Lean on their encouragement during challenging times.Admittedly, it takes courage to welcome the wisdom of going slow in this competitive world. ⑤_____ Taking it slow with patience enables individuals to travel along this journey with determination, as can be illustrated by the well-known story of the tortoise and the hare.A. Ask for suggestions.B. Applaud small wins.C. It's the slow and steady progress that leads to lasting habits.D. As we slow down, patience becomes our greatest companion.E. Protect these few practices by giving up other unsuitable ones.F. However, is it right for us common people to do so in such a way?G. The question then is, how do we go slow and develop and sustain a new habit?三、完形填空（15空）Adrienne Tully, an amateur photographer, went to the coast of a beach in Belmar, Newwhat he did.17．A. wildlife B. city C. fight D. sunrise18．A. launch B. anticipate C. shoot D. report19．A. cooperating B. forming C. arguing D. encountering20．A. hope B. charge C. absence D. face21．A. confused B. desperate C. anxious D. depressed22．A. fortunately B. however C. otherwise D. therefore23．A. defeated B. deserted C. stuck D. seated24．A. routines B. attempts C. excuses D. routes25．A. ruined B. interrupted C. canceled D. postponed26．A. purposely B. randomly C. elegantly D. heroically27．A. onlooker B. tourist C. surfer D. guide28．A. going B. washing C. thundering D. struggling29．A. ashamed B. mad C. amazed D. expert30．A. went off B. turned up C. settled down D. set out31．A. appreciated B. understood C. awarded D. supported四、短文填空32． The Qinghai Lake National Nature Reserve in northwest China's Qinghai Province has updated ①_____(it) list of protected wildlife, adding 10 species ②_____ the previoustotal of 72, according to a report by the Xinhua News Agency.

It’s over a hundred years old. In the winter of 1891, a certain college was having some trouble with its boy students. The weather was bad and the students had to stay indoors. As they could not play outdoors, they were unhappy, and some even got into fights from time to time.Some of the teachers at the college asked Dr. Naismith to invent a game so that the students might have something to play with. It was not easy to invent such a game because it had to be played indoors, and the court was not very large.Dr. Naismith thought for a few days and invented a kind of ball game. It was a fast, wonderful game with much moving and passing of the ball, It played between two teams. To make a score, the ball had to be thrown into the basket ten feet above the floor on the wall. At each en of the court there was such a basket. At first, Dr. Naismith wanted to throw the ball into a box. As he could not find boxes of the right size, he had to use fruitbasket instead. That is how the game got its name.( )1、How long is it since basketball was invented?A 1,000 years.B Less than 100 years.C 1,100 years.D More than 100 years.( )2、The students felt unhappy because .A they could not play outdoorsB they often got into fightsC they had much homework to doD they had little time to study( )3、Who asked Dr. Naismith to invent a game?A Some students.B Some teachers.C Some students’ parents.D Some of his friends.( )4、When a student , he makes a score.A receives the ballB throws the ball to another studentC runs quickly with the ball in his handD throws the ball into the basket(B)Which of your hands do you use most? Very few of us use both of our hands well. Most of us use our right hands well. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. New –born babies can take things with either of their hands, but in about two years they like to use their right hands.Scientists don’t know why this happens. They have studied it. They think of our animal ancestors in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the other but it can be either hand. There are so man right-handed ones. Next time you visit the zoo, watch the monkeys carefully. You’ll see that some of them will swing from their right hands and the others will use their left hands. But most human beings use their right hands better and many tools are made for the right-handed people, and this makes life difficult for the left-handed ones. We live in a right-handed world.1、Very few of us can use both of our hands well. It means “”A many people can’t use hand as well as the otherB many people can’t use both handsC many people can use one hand as well as the otherD many people can use both hands2、New-born babies at first.A can only use their right hands.B can only use their left handsC can’t use both of their handsD can use both their hands3、Which of the following is true?A Monkeys are left-handed.B Monkeys are right-handed.C In a zoo you can see some of the monkeys are left-handed; the others re right-handed.D There are much more right-handed monkeys than left-handed monkeys.4、Man live in aA left-handed worldB right-handed worldC monkey worldD lifeless world(C)Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh, and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are just the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean that they nolonger like each other. Most of the time, they will make up and go on being friends.Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But when we call them and write to them? It could be that we would even see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women who have been friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could just know that someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.1、The first paragraph tells usA none need friendsB we always need friends around usC making friends is the need in people’s lifeD we need to be alone2、Which of the following doesn’t the writer say in the passage?A People are not happy when their friends leave them.B People will never see their friends after their friends move away.C People can know their friends in different ways.D People like their friends very much if they get to know them.3、Which of the following is most probably the place people name after friendly people?A A cityB A roomC A townD A library4、People who have friends live longer than people who don’t becauseA they feel happier and are healthyB they get a lot of help from their friendsC they take better care of themselvesD both A and C(D)What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist(悲观). At least, this is what psychologists(心理学家) tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference(偏爱), as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up-we are born with or preference.Colors do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(沮丧的，消沉的). A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀(者)) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted(重画) green. The number of suicide attempts(试图，企图) immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.1、If you like greys and blues, you are likelyA a person who enjoys lifeB a leader followed by othersC a follower leading othersD a person always expecting worst things will happen2、If you happen to love brown,A you did soB you learned to do soC psychologists said soD psychologists thought so3、There is no doubt thatA most people like yellow and redB yellow and red are better than black and blueC colors have an effect on our lifeD workers will work better with their machines painted grey or black五、短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

高二下学期第三次月考英语试题(原卷版)

This sweetener is produced by tapping maple trees to release and collect their sap. A tree's sap is the liquid that, much like blood in animals, carries water and food to different parts of the tree to keep itnourished. A mature maple produces about ten gallons of sap in a given season, after which the tree will wall off the channel that has been tapped, so that a new tap has to be drilled the next season. Maples are not tapped for syrup until they are at least 40 years old and have reached a certain size, to ensure that no harm comes to the tree through the tapping process .
Please don't misunderstand me. There is certainly a place for celebration foods such as cake and ice cream. But a regular serving of daily junk food robs me of the nutrition offered in the foods I eat.

The fields, hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination. I can remember once hiking to nearby lake and walking slowly around it. At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before. It was full of muddy type tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ears “turn around and head back home”, but I was stubborn and walked on. There was still neither a car nor a house in sight I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared I didn’t want to end up trapped on this road, and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me. My heart was pounding and my legs were aching. I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. It was still over a mile away, but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. Then I ended my adventure with a good night’s sleep.I often thought of that experience recently. Actually, in our life, all roads, no matter how they twist and turn, can lead us home again.

Some procedures require the consumption of large amounts of fossil fuels, such as the transportation and storage of food products. Other factors that cause great damage to our environment include the overuse of fresh water.The production of beef is more damaging to the environment than that of any other food we consume. Raising large numbers of cattle requires the production of large amounts of food for the animals. It’s estimated that producing one pound of beef requires seven pounds of feed.Land use is also a problem. If the cattle are free-range cattle, large areas of land are required for them to live on. This has led to disastrous forest cutting and the loss of rare plants and animal species, particularly in tropical rain forests in Central and South America.Another problem specific to beef production is methane emissions . Although many people are aware of the damaging effects of carbon dioxide, they don’t realize methane’s global warming potential is 25 times worse, making it a more dire problem.Unfortunately, beef consumption is growing rapidly. This is the result of simple supply and demand factors. Specifically, there are two main causes ofdemand that are encouraging the production of more supply. First, the increase in the world population means there are more people to consume meat. The second factor is socioeconomic advancement. As citizens in developing nations become financially stable, they can afford to buy more meat.Therefore, one way to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions is for people around the world to significantly cut down on the amount of beef they eat.（1）Which of the following is TRUE?A . Raising free-range cattle is eco-friendly.B . People cut down trees for animal habitats.C . Producing beef can damage the environment.D . Carbon dioxide causes far more harm than methane.（2）The underline d word “dire” in Para. 4 means _______.A . commonB . urgentC . beneficialD . avoidable（3）Beef production is growing rapidly because_______.A . more people are in demand of beefB . developing countries raise more cattleC . more land is available to raise cattleD . the cost of raising cattle is relatively low（4）The author writes this article to_______.A . describe the booming of the beef productionB . emphasize the advantages of beef productionC . criticize the cutting of the rain forestD . argue for a decrease in beef consumption5. 阅读理解It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human lifewhether in the United States or the Amazon Rain Forest. Without it we would not have grown into primates. Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat. Without competition, Columbus wouldn’t have discovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb.Friendship, like all relationship between two people, involves competition. It isn’t competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological definition—the simultaneous demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrients，living space, or light- better explain it.As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwin’s theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them, ranking and categorizingtake place. In high school, friendships learn to co-exist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstances, competition is too much of a burden for a friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student’s fate is determined not only by these achievem ents, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve a similar recognition.Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to school work. A healthy, friendly competition can have onlybenefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy can tear friendships apart. Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost.（1）What does the ecological definition mainly explain?A . How friends compete with each other.B . How to win the competition.C . What the result of competition is.D . What competition exactly is.（2）According to the writer, what causes the high school students to compete?A . The number of them is too large.B . Friendship is a burden for them.C . They know the laws of nature well.D . They are divided into different groups.（3）Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?A . Friendship is always based on competition.B . The degree of competition is vital to friendship.C . Competition is terribly harmful to friendship.D . Competition is a result of lost friendship.（4）What does the author think of “competition”?A . The results of competition are out of control.B . Competition becomes fiercer in high school.C . Competition is certain to happen at schools.D . Friendship is not as important as competition at schools.三、任务型阅读6. 任务型阅读There are so many things we do in our daily lives that have become a “habit”________How you answer the phone is a habit. The way you sit in the car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after you ve done it in a certain way for so long? It’s not very easyto do. The minute your mind drifts to something else, you go right back to the old way of doing things________it’s a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace.

Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start.After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, “Hey, I forgot to...” Keep using the notes if you have to________Some people say it will take over a month to solidify it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine.________A. What is a “habit” anyway?B. Forming a bad habit is easy.C. Brushing your teeth is a habit.D. Is doing things in an old way good?E. If you don’t, you will find a way to do everything but that.F. It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit.G. that’s something you won’t necessarily have to th ink about before you do it—habit.四、短文改错7. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。
