It was first published in the year 1904, authored by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but it still connects to today’s world where we forget to live in the present.It tells of the adventures of Anne Shirley, an 11-year-old orphan (孤儿)girl who is mistakenly sent to Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a middle-aged brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm in the fictional town of Avonlea. The novel describes how Anne makes her way with the Cuthberts, in school, and within the town.The book teaches me a lot of things, the most important being — to be who you are. Why do we need to pretend to be somebody else and project a false image of ourselves to look better? We need to realize that we are all different in our own way and accept ourselves first. As is described in the book, Anne is a colorful and ever-growing character. She “has as many shades as a rainbow and every shade is the prettiest while it lasts.” Each aspect of her personality is beautiful, which makes her unique and interesting.Another important concept that is illustrated remarkably well is the importance of taking joy in the world around us. Anne’s obvious wonder-struck appreciation of life made me truly appreciate the small things. Here is my favourite quote (引言) from Chapter 19:I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.Anne’s influence has deeply shaped who I am today. This classic novel truly highlights the importance of self-love and gratitude. With its uplifting and refreshing story, it is a wonderful read for people of all ages seeking a joyful and enriching literary journey.24．What do we know about Anne of Green Gables?A．It is a recent release.B．It covers real events.C．It is a timeless classic.D．It features world history.25．What can we learn about Anne from paragraph 3?A．She is true to herself.B．She achieves her goal.C．She is talented in drawing.D．She cares about others.26．Which of the following best matches the quote from Chapter 19?A．Time waits for no man.B．Do one thing at a time.C．Fortune favours the brave.D．Stop and smell the roses.27．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To tell a story.B．To remember a writer.C．To teach a lesson.D．To recommend a book.Theo works days, nights, and weekends in the tulip (郁金香) fields in the Netherlands and never complains about tired muscles. How is this possible? Theo, named after a retired farmer, is a high-tech robot in the battle to root out disease from the fields.The robot rolls along rows of yellow and red tulips, checking each plant and, when necessary, killing diseased bulbs (鳞茎) to prevent the spread of the tulip-breaking virus (病毒). The virus weakens the bulb, leaving them unable to flower. The dead bulbs are removed from healthy ones in a sorting center after they have been harvested. There are 45 robots like Theo working in the tulip fields of the Netherlands. Their job becomes important as the winter turns to spring and peak season nears, when people come from around the world to admire the colorful flowers.In the past, this work was carried out by knowledgeable farmers. Allan Visser is a third-generation tulip farmer who is using the robot. “You could buy a very nice sports car for the price of the robot,” Visser said. The robot costs 185,000 euros. “It’s a lot slower than a sports car, rolling on caterpillar tracks through fields,” he added. “But I choose the robot because a sports car doesn’t see the sick tulips. Now there are fewer and fewer people who can really do that.”The robots have been trained to detect sick plants. They have cameras and take thousands of photos of the tulips. Their AI model examines the photos, hunting out signs on sick plants, and decides which ones need to be killed. The engineer explains the robots use GPS to be sure they are destroying the correct tulips. The heart of the machine is the knowledge put into the AI model, which comes from experienced tulip farmers like Theo van der Voort, who gave his name to the robot.Van der Voort retired after 52 years of looking for sick flowers in his fields. “It’s fantastic,” he said. “It sees just as much as I see.”28．What does the robot do?A．Plant new tulips.B．Clear troubled bulbs.C．Kill deadly virus.D．Harvest grown flowers.29．What can we infer from Visser’s words?A．He dreams of a sports car.B．Tulip fields are low in production.C．The robot is worth the cost.D．Farmers lack technical knowledge. 30．What is the key to making the robots work effectively?A．GPS systems.B．High-tech cameras.C．Daily training.D．Human knowledge.31．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Theo’s Watch: An Advance in Tulip FarmingB．Al Robots: A Replacement for Aging FarmersC．Tulip Seasons: An Attraction of the NetherlandsD．Visser’s Practice: A Tradition in Tulip BusinessesParents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with distrust, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something foolish or even dangerous. Their worries hold water. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.In the following years, Steinberg examined why teens were more likely to take risks in the company of other teenagers. In a later study, by scanning (扫描) the brains of 40 teens and adults, Steinberg found the brains of teenagers, but not adults, showed greater activity in two regions associated with rewards when they were being observed by same-age peers. The reward systems of the brain are activated whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which make them feel satisfied. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which motivates them to seek higher-risk experiences.But Steinberg thought peer pressure might also have its positive side. In the latest study, Steinberg’s team used a card game to research how peers affect the way young people gather and apply information. It involved 101 teenage boys who played either alone or with three peers. They chose cards from four decks (牌堆): two decks had “good” cards, and two “bad” ones. Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them towin. The results showed that teens playing with their peers engage in more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.Now some experts are proposing that we should take advantage of the teens’ keen sensitivity (敏感) to the presence of friends to improve education. “Risk taking in an educational context is a vital skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.32．What do the underlined words “hold water” in paragraph 1 mean?A．Make sense.B．Face doubts.C．Bring relief.D．Start debates.33．What is the reason behind teens’ dangerous behavior?A．Inability to tell right from wrong.B．A sense of satisfaction.C．Eagerness to follow their friends.D．Lack of social experience.34．How does risk-taking affect teens in the latest study?A．It starts fights between them.B．It inspires them to question.C．It weakens their independence.D．It helps them to learn better.35．What would Blakemore suggest teachers do in the classroom?A．Conduct group discussion.B．Improve time management.C．Encourage personal opinions.D．Develop decision-making skills.Standing at the top of a staircase in the Louvre in Paris, the Nike, or the Winged Victory (胜利女神), looks down over her admiring crowds. This statue is one of the most famous artworks of Greek art. 36 Later it was brought to Paris and has been on display in the Louvre since 1866.The Nike consists of two parts: a large ship’s front part, and a standing statue with a totalheight of more than eighteen feet. It looks like the Winged Victory has just flown down from the sky. 37 The wind blows her dress across her body, gathering it in heavy folds, and streaming behind her. When viewers look at her, they can almost feel the wind from the sea.38The statue, as it stands today in the Louvre, has been partly repaired. The right wing is a modern copy, but the missing feet, arms, and head have not been recovered, giving viewers much to imagine. For instance, did the Nike hold objects in her hands? In fact, people found her right hand in 1950, whose fingers are spread out. 39 She must have simply raised her right arm in greeting. Her head may have looked straight ahead, and viewers can only guess about the features of her face.40 As one of the few existing examples of original Greek sculpture, it will continue to attract viewers, just as it undoubtedly did before.A．This means that she cannot have held any object.B．The Nike is in charge of victory in ancient Greek stories.C．It was found on a Greek island in the Aegean sea in 1863.D．This statue was made by artists who left no names in history.E．It’s hard for them to believe such a lifelike statue is made of stone.F．Landing on top of the ship, she celebrates the victory of an ancient battle.G．Despite its incomplete survival, the Winged Victory is truly a masterpiece.三、完形填空Jason Smith is a published children’s author and award-winning poet. But growing up, he could 41 read.Jason and his three sisters were raised by a single mother, and she often had to make 42 choices about how to use their limited resources—including a 43 to send his oldest sister to school, and to keep Jason at home.Years later, when Jason finally went to school, he couldn’t spell his name and 44 to read simple words, which made him feel 45 .

山东省日照市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题
山东省日照市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题一、阅读理解A river cruise (乘船游览) is an ideal opportunity to explore cities and landscapes beyond the ocean’s reach, while you are enjoying fine dining and exceptional service of waterways.

They call this their “Qomolangma selfie”. To get it, more than a few people have risked everything and tragically, many have died during the climb, with their precious images still locked in their cameras.But as a professional climber who’s spent the past. two decades pursuing summits(顶峰) all over the world, I had refused the idea of an expedition(探险) to Mount Qomolangma. The mountain seemed to represent the opposite of everything that I loved and respected about climbing.The first mountain I attempted to climb was just a 500-foot cliff. I, together with a friend managed to make our way a couple hundred feet up the nearly vertical(垂直) wall to the. safety of a small ledge. Sitting side by side, we watched the sun dip toward the horizon, amazed by what we had done and wondered how we were going to get down. The thrill of doing something most people wouldn’t consider, the discovery of the view at the top and the bond my friend and I shared all came to define the meaning of what I have been seeking in the mountain s ever since.I would have never changed my mind, were it not for an old friend and his devotion to one of mountaineering’s greatest mysteries—whether Mallory, a legendary British climber, might have reached the top in 1924—nearly 30 years before Edmund Hillary and Tensing Norgay. The camera he likely carried had never been found. That’s how I found myself searching for a long-lost climber and, just maybe, history’s first highest point selfie.My expedition didn’t find the camera, but it did cause me to reconsider Mount Qomolangma. As I packed for Xizang, I expected that our state-of-the-art equipment and bottled oxygen would make the climb manageable, perhaps easy. Actually, when the top photo was taken,I was more exhausted than I’d ever been on any expedition. Along the way, I continuously tipped my hat, not just to Mallory, but to anyone who had the drive to push themselves up this route. 4．What are most climbers’ understanding of “Oomolangma selfie”?A．It comes at a big cost.B．It shows their respect for nature.C．It is inspired by passion.D．It brings a sense of achievement.5．Why did the author mention his first climbing experience?A．To stress the difficulty in climbing the cliff.B．To explain his focus on mountain climbing.C．To express his thoughts on “Oomolangma selfie”.D．To meet his desire to climb Mount Qomolangma.6．Which word can best describe the author’s expedition to Mount Qomolangma?A．Respectable.B．Challenging.C．Enjoyable.D．Charming. 7．What does the author seem to convey in the text?A．Not all expeditions are worth the effort.B．The meaning of climbing varies greatly.C．Perseverance lies behind “Qomolangma selfie”.D．Think twice before climbing Mount Qomolangma.I think it all started with microwaves. A typical microwave can cook an entire chicken in 16minutes. That’s 3 times faster than the best convection oven (对流烤箱). We still stand in front of microwaves, impatiently tapping our feet, waiting for popcorn to pop.Modern consumer technology and the Internet have only amplified that convenience impatience. We have emails that literally travel around the world in seconds, and yet we still ask the recipient: Did you get it? Where is it? It should be there. A file that takes more than 10 seconds to download is considered a crime.And we’re suddenly faced with a digital queue. The system can’t serve us all at once and asks us to wait. But waiting is a chain in our DNA that is breaking up. This leads to the toe tapping, fingers pianoing on the desk, pen chewing, and eventually hair-pulling as if the thought of waiting a few minutes will drive us mad.Millennials and Gen Z are products of an instant-response childhood. They’ve long lived ina world where their every thought is met with instant response in texts and social media. In real life, these same people have no idea how to wait for a response. The assumption (设想) is that real world works exactly the same as digital. But the system in a company or government doesn’t move at anything near digital speed. In fact, it often moves as slowly as it did in the pre-Internet age. There’s a disconnect between these waits and most of our lives lived through technology.We are biology living in a digital space, enjoying the benefits of instant answers and access, but unable to change our own programming to match its speed. Operating at digital and Internet speed is a great benefit, but we forget that somewhere in the instant access path is often a comparatively slow-moving and slow-thinking human, who can only do so much, and only at a certain pace.When people say slow down, take a breath, they usually mean that you should step back from a busy moment. But this should also include stepping back from your instant-access existence to see that not everything can happen right away. Most of the time, it just doesn’t need to.8．What does the underlined word “amplified” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Balanced.B．Worsened.C．Maintained.D．Weakened. 9．What is people’s reaction towards a digital queue?A．They lose patience to wait.B．They get embarrassed.C．They enjoy waiting to be served.D．They consider it as normal.10．What do we know about Millennials and Gen Z?A．They are lacking in social experience.B．They desire for immediate responses.C．They are deeply influenced by the social media.D．They have a good understanding of the real word.11．What can be concluded from the text?A．Accept things happen at their own pace.B．Go for instant response at any time.C．Make sure everything happens right away.D．Step back to see what has happened.Over the years, many scientists have attempted to explain why spending time in green spaces can reduce feelings of stress and anxiety, from their supposed ability to clean the air to theirmysterious effects on our brains.The most common saying I tend to hear is that plants, particularly houseplants, clean the air. The latest research now suggests that in indoor spaces you would need a lot of them before you see any noticeable benefit. How many? Well, several hundred per square meter of living space to achieve the same benefit of simply opening a window.What we do know, however, is that there is something unusual about the color green that seems to affect how our brains function. Researchers investigating the effect of exercise on psychological well-being have found that seeing views of the natural world on screens had additional benefits over and above the workout alone. However, when they changed the screens to show the same views in black and white or in shades of red, the effect was markedly reduced compared to the original green. This may mean that having evergreen species in your garden or even something as simple as painting your fence green might contribute to its effect.Similarly, designing your garden to require higher maintenance (维护) so that it is not simply somewhere to sunbathe in summer may improve the beneficial effect by encouraging gentle workouts. Low-impact, prolonged exercise, such as gardening, can burn more calories (卡路里) than a hard-hitting gym session, despite feeling easier. It is a way of being active that may appeal to far more people.Gardening is also a classic form of practicing mindfulness, which can help to focus our thoughts on the here and now, distracting us from any worries or stresses. Mindfulness exercises are well-documented to have a positive impact on psychological well-being. So act now, embrace (接受) the power of greenery and turn your garden into a welcoming space.12．Which factor determines houseplants’ effect on cleaning the air?A．Their quantity.B．Their colors.C．Their varieties.D．Their placement.13．What is a benefit of seeing the color green during exercise?A．Promoting sports technique.B．Burning more calories.C．Increasing intelligence level.D．Improving mental health.14．What contributes to the popularity of gardening?A．It is accessible and effective.B．It is affordable and appealing.C．It requires higher maintenance.D．It offers a connection with nature.15．Why is gardening a form of mindfulness?A．It helps develop a sense of success.B．It frees us from our daily matters.C．It directs our attention to the present.D．It encourages learning and creativity.Creativity is the skill of thinking up new and different ideas and solutions. 16 It comes out in the way we do all sorts of-things, such as solving riddles, playing games or dreaming up new ideas.Neuroscientists describe creativity as the brain’s way of coming up with an idea that is original, new or different. Some people make art, music or paintings. 17 You can be creative in anything you enjoy, such as baking, inventing games or playing with numbers. “The best thing about creativity is that there’s no right or wrong way to do it — it’s about finding ways to have fun,” says Rakhee Jasani, a writer who helps people discover their creativity.18 It can relieve stress, give you energy and help you feel calm. “It’s like taking a deep breath when we’re feeling stressed,”Jasani explains. “Doing something creative that we enjoy is sometimes just for ourselves — it helps us to express how we’re feeling so that we feel stronger and prouder. ”Exercising can make your body strong. 19 Think of a time when you’ve solved a problem, finished a jigsaw puzzle — this is your creative brain at work.Neuroscientists say that being creative means your brain has to mix up different “mental representations” in order to come up with something new or different.

Andrea Peterson was 5 when she and her mother were trapped in a burning building. It was a threatening situation in which no one could get close to them. The hope for survival didn’t come until the firefighters arrived.“Throw the kid down!” said one of the firemen below, and little Andrea leaped into lifesaving arms and a lifelong ambition（抱负）: She wanted to fight fires like her rescuers did. She told that to the men who had saved her, and they laughed good-naturedly the way grown-ups do when a kid says they want to be an astronaut or a sports star. But this was back in a time when little girls weren’t even allowed to fantasize about such grand goals. “You’ll be a good mommy,” the firemen told her. “You’ll be a good teacher, maybe you’ll be a nurse, but you can never be a fireman.”However, life sidelined her dreams. She met her husband, Dennis, who was diagnosed（诊断）with cancer later. Peterson spent 31 years caring for the man she loved. At 61, she went on an ambulance ride-along and Peterson felt that long-ago childhood calling. She earned her emergency medical technician license and responded to fire calls with the ambulance. She found that her years of tending to Dennis had prepared her for dealing with a variety of hurts and ills. After a year, she told her boss she wanted to be a firefighter.The fact that everyone else in her training unit didn’t stop her. She passed the written test, and physical examination. Finally, that little girl’s dream became a reality.Peterson i s realistic. “I worry a little when I get too old.” She knows that the window on her physical abilities won’t stay open forever. “Fortunately, I did get my dream.” She laughed.4. What happened to Andrea Peterson when she was five?A．No one came to her rescue in the fire.B．She dreamed about becoming a firefighter.C．The firemen failed to find her.D．She was stuck in the burning building alone.5. What can be inferred from the firemen’s words?A．Big dreams were too far away from girls.B．People thought girls should put family first.C．Andrea’s goal to be an astronaut was realistic.D．They believed Andrea could be a good parent.6. What did Andrea benefit from caring for her husband?A．Becoming brave to face death. B．Learning to drive an ambulance.C．Being able to treat various injuries. D．Obtaining the medical technician license.7. Which of the following words best describe Andrea?A．Considerate and hard-working. B．Honest and modest.C．Creative and adventurous. D．Ambitious and determined.In February 2015, a photograph of a dress raised heated debate around the world. The disagreement centred on the dress’s colour: some people were convinced it was blue and black while others white and gold. People couldn’t understand how, faced with exactl y the same photograph of exactly the same dress, they could reach such different conclusions.For a long time, people believed that colours were objective, physical features of objects or of the light that was reflected off them. But this theory isn’t rea lly true. Different wavelengths of light do exist independently of us but they only become colours inside our bodies. Every person's visual system is unique and so are their perceptions（感知）. This is why no two people will ever see exactly the same colours.Another cause of the problem is language. People generally name only the colours they consider socially or culturally important. In English we divide colour space into 11 basic terms—black, white, red, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, grey, orange and pink—but other languages do things differently. At least one Indigenous community has no specific words for any colours, only “light” and “dark”. The Aztecs, who were enthusiastic farmers, used more than a dozen words for green.A single colour can mean completely different things in different places and at different times. In the west white is the colour of light, life and purity, but in parts of Asia it is the colour of death. Many people today think of blue as masculine（男性的）and pink as feminine（女性的）, but only a hundred years ago baby boys were dressed in pink and girls in blue.All of this taken together, it becomes rather difficult to reach a conclusion different from that of the 18th-century philosopher David Hume: colour is merely a phantasm of the senses.8. What caused a world-wide discussion?A．The exact colour of the dress. B．The colorful design of the dress.C．The changing colour of the dress. D．The number of the dress's colours.9. What was a common misunderstanding of colour?A．Wavelengths of light became colours.B．Colours existed objectively and physically.C．Everyone’s visual system worked uniquely.D．Colours could be reflections of different light.10. What does the author want to tell by the example of the colour “blue” and “pink”?A．Colour meanings may vary in places.B．Colour can have special gender meanings.C．Colour may mean differently in different cultures.D．Colour can have various meanings at different times.11. What does the underlined words in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Colour doesn’t exist in reality.B．Colour doesn’t make any sense.C．Colour is an imagination in mind. D．Colour is independent from senses. Over the last two decades, American technology companies and policymakers warned of a “digital di vide” in which poor children could fall behind their richer peers without equal access to technology. Today, with widespread internet access and smartphone ownership, the gap has narrowed sharply in America. But gradually a different division has appeared: Across the country, poor children and teenagers are taking part far less in sports and fitness activities than richer youngsters are. Call it the physical divide.Data from different sources show a significant gap in sports participation（参与）by income level.A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study found that 70% of children from families with incomes above about $105,000—four times the poverty line—took part in sports in 2020. But participation was around 51% for families in a middle-income range, and just 31% for families at or below the poverty line.A 2021 study of Seattle-area students from fifth grade through high school found that youth were less likely to take part in sports than their richer peers. The study also found that middle schoolers from richer families were three times as likely to meet physical exercise guidelines as less wealthy students.Schools are not always filling the gap. A recent report from the Physical Activity Alliance, a nonprofit organization, gave schools nationwide a grade of D-for physical fitness. That is a downgrade from a C-in 2014, with the new grade reflecting even less access to regular physical education classes, gym time and equipment in schools. Ann Paulls-Neal, a track coach at Highland High, has noticed that richer students have more access to club sports. She thought about the reasons. Some families couldn’t afford private sports or didn’t have cars or time to ferry their children to practice while richer ones can afford for club-team fees, uniforms, equipment, travel to tournaments（锦标赛）and private coaching.12. Why is “digital divide” mentioned in paragraph 1?A．To give a definition. B．To introduce the topic.C．To draw attention to it. D．To offer background information.13. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show?A．Children have different exercise habits.B．Richer children are more likely to do sports.C．Poorer children are less interested in sports.D．Most middle-class children take part in sports.14. What did Ann think was the main reason for private sports divide?A．Coaching. B．Transport. C．Money. D．Equipment.15. What is the best title of the the text?A．Schools try to fill physical divide. B．Physical divide troubles teenagers.C．Digital divide has sharply narrowed. D．Income gap leads to physical divide. With the approach of summer vacation, if you ever had a thought that biking might be for you, July might be the perfect month to try it out. Regular biking is beneficial to your mental and physical health. 16 So here are some tips that can guide the new cyclists along.Prepare essential necessities. You don’t need a ton of equipment to get started. Once you’ve got your bike and helmet, consider how to carry all your belongings. That could be a simple backpack, but it could also be a basket on your bike. 17 In the summer, athletic shorts and a T-shirt are often good choices.18 Don’t try biking somewhere for the first time when you’re in a hurry or have an important meeting. Bike somewhere closer and low-risk, like a quick run to the store or to a friend's backyard. Work your way up to more farther destinations.Adopt a relaxed mindset（心态）and seek help. It`s admitted that mentality, of taking it easy, can be extended to the route itself. Try out different routes to find the one yo u’re most comfortable with. Visit a bike shop to get maps of your city’s bike paths. Ask friends who bikes for suggestions or to ride with you. 19Use a bike lane if possible. The League of American Bicyxclists says bikers should try to give cars 3 feet of space. But cyclists shouldn`t ride in the gutter（排水沟）to keep their distance. 20 Don`t make drivers try to squeeze（挤压）past you. It`s about maintaining a balance for safety, and that’s not always easy.My father, Michael, led me through the outside cottage he’d filled with his paintings. “When I have an exhibition...” he began, pointing to the ______ he’d created. Poor Pa, I thought.In 1994 he`d been diagnosed with Parkinson`s Disease（帕金森症）, which had ______ the whole family as he was only in his forties.

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8．What is the purpose of the public holiday?A．To increase economic income. B．To encourage people to plant trees.C．To allow people to get more rest. D．To remind people to get close to nature. 9．Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3?A．Increase.

B．No contribution is too small to leave animpact.C．Each animal is important to nature. D．It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11．What is the best title for the text?A．Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB．Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC．Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD．Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12．What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A．To introduce a phenomenon. B．To bring in the topic.C．To ask an interesting question. D．To provide background information. 13．How did the researchers conduct the study?A．By analyzing previous studies. B．By observing the behavior of birds.C．By gathering feelings of participants. D．By studying people’s effect on birds. 14．What does Hammoud think of the new study?A．Pioneering. B．Interesting. C．Conventional. D．Practical. 15．What is the main idea of the text?A．Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B．Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C．Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D．Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

He would 24 us to and from school. One day we had to take a detour(绕道) on the way to school and while we were 25 in traffic by a young street child, probably no more than 10 years old, he 26 with a friendly greeting, “Hi, John!”He approached the 27 and shook John’s hand. John then gave him a little bit of money and waved him off with a(n) 28 before we carried on our way to school.I had watched the whole incident from the back seat, 29 surprised. I knew that John worked very hard to make ends meet. He had a 30 family himself. We were always sending rice and fruit and other snacks and clothes for his 31 and I knew that he didn’t have any spare money. So, of course, at the age I couldn’t 32 why he would be giving money to the child.“Who was he?” I asked, “My friend,” he replied, “I 33 him every morning on my way to work and I give him a little bit of money.” Still 34 to comprehend, I asked, “Why do you have to give him money every morning?” John replied, “So he can use it to 35 some food.” It was probably in that moment that I understood what 36 really was.Someone who was in a difficult 37 themselves still found some money to spare for a child who need it.

It might understand more than you think.A border collie（边境牧羊犬）named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. 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 workedout 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!.44. From paragraph 2 we know that __ .A. animals are as clever as human beingsB. dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzeesC. chimpanzees have very good word-learning skillsD. dogs have similar 'learning abilities as 3-year-old children45. 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 them46. Which of the following statements is true?A. The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities.B. Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training.C. The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects.D. Rico is born to understand its owner's commands.47. What does the writer want to tell us?A. To train your dog.B. To talk to your dog.C. To be friendly to your dog.D. To be careful with your dog.CImagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there．Sounds unusual, doesn't it? But it's not that unrealistic, with the development of China’s high-speed railway system. And that’s not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe．China is negotiating(谈判) to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 1 0 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore．China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The thirdwould start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe．If China’s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could zip over from London to Beijing in under two days．The new system would still follow China’s high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes．China’s bullet train(高速列车), the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the World’s fastest average speed. It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours．Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge(轨距), maintenance(保养) of railway tracks. So, it’s important to pay attention to every detail. But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic(国内的) railway expansion（扩张; 扩大）．China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital（资本的）investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain（维持; 供养）development．It’ll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries．For China，such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would a lso help develop China’s far west．We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions，where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And they’ll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries．48. China’s new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because ．A.China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regionsB.China will develop its railway system and communication with othercountriesC.China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysD.the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation,business and tourism49. According to the passage，the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railwayplan is ．A. financial problemsB. safety of the systemC. technical issuesD. maintenance of railway tracks50. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. New Railway StandardsB. Big Railway DreamsC. High-speed Bullet TrainsD.
