Students from a jewellery school once came to Brush’s studio, a loft in mid-Manhattan, awed to be meeting a figure who, to them, was a worker of miracles.For 45 years in that loft, he had pursued his calling. His wife Olivia was the only company. He produced hundreds of objects of all sorts, most of them exquisite and many astonishingly small. Rather than use electricity, he laboured alone in a forest of antique machines and when tools frustrated him, he made his own, displaying them in cupboards as art in themselves.Above all else, he worked in gold. His obsession took fire when at 13 he saw an Etruscan gold bowl in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The ancient technique of applying gold beads as fine assand-grains to a curved gold surface without solder (焊接), was stunning, but so was the lightness of spirit.He resolved then that he would make such a bowl, and gold became the study of his life. Simply to watch it melt, turn to red-hot and white-hot, then glow purple, was magical. To hold pure gold grain and let it move slowly through his fingers restored his calm of spirit. His chief motivation, he said, was to understand the material and, through that, himself. He wondered why his heart had beaten so fast in the museum that day. Gold in particular had a message for him. His contact with this glorious metal might focus all his attention and help him to hear it.He developed delicate craftsmanship, with each object virtually a museum piece. For Daniel Brush, he loved the idea that one might take a piece made by Brush out of a pocket, let its beauty pass from mind to mind, and smile. That too was what its maker was after.24. What can we learn about Daniel Brush?A. Students visited him regularly.B. He began to live in his loft in 1975.C. He tended to use ancient crafts to produce objects.D. Most objects he produced were of a surprisingly small size.25. What is the main reason for his lifelong study of gold?A. He wanted to learn more about both gold and himself.B. He wondered why his heart had beat fast in the museum.C. His calm was restored when gold grain moved through fingers.D. Gold had a particular message for him and he was eager to hear it.26. Which of the following can best describe Daniel Brush?A. Stubborn.B. Wealthy.C. Dedicated.D. Lonely.27. What does the author try to emphasize in the last paragraph?A. Brush’s valuable works.B. The admirers Brush expected.C. Brush’s desire for fame.D. The artistic ideal Brush pursued.CWe all know that unpleasant feeling when we’re talking about something interesting and halfway through our sentence we’re interrupted. But was that really an interruption? The answer depends on whom you ask, according to new research led by Katherine Hilton from Stanford University.Using a set of controlled audio clips (录音片段), Hilton surveyed 5,000 American English speakers to better understand what affects people’s perceptions of interruptions. She had participants listen to audio clips and then answer questions about whether the speakers seemed to be friendly and engaged, listening to one another, or trying to interrupt.Hilton found that American English speakers have different conversational styles. She identified two distinct groups: high and low intensity speakers. High intensity speakers are generally uncomfortable with moments of silence in conversation and consider talking at the same time a sign of engagement. Low intensity speakers find it rude to talk at the same time and prefer people speak one after another in conversation.The differences in conversational styles became evident when participants listened to audio clips in which two people spoke at the same time but were agreeing with each other and stayed on topic, Hilton said. The high intensity group reported that conversations where people spoke at the same time when expressing agreement were not interruptive but engaged and friendlier than the conversations with moments of silence in between speaking turns. In contrast, the low intensity group perceived any amount of simultaneous (同时) chat as a rude interruption, regardless of what the speakers were saying.“People care about being interrupted, and those small interruptions can have a massive effect on the overall communicatio n,” Hilton said. “Breaking apart what an interruption means is essential if we want to understand how humans interact with each other.”28. What does Hilton’s research focus on?A. What interruptions mean to people.B. Whether interruption is good or not.C. How to avoid getting interrupted.D. Why speakers interrupt each other.29. What do participants of the study need to do?A. Record an audio clip.B. Answer some questions.C. Listen to one another.D. Have a chat with a friend.30. What do low intensity speakers think of simultaneous chat?A. It’s important.B. It’s interesting.C. It’s inefficient.D. It’s impolite.31. What can we learn from Hilton’s research?A. Human interaction is complex.B. Communication is the basis of life.C. Interruptions promote thinking.D. Language barriers will always exist.DSwot satellite is scheduled to be launched Thursday morning to conduct a comprehensive surveyof Earth’s vital resource. By using advanced microwave radar technology it will collect height-surface measurements of oceans, lakes and rivers in high-definition detail over 90% of the globe. It’s really the first time to observe nearly all water on the planet’s surface.The major mission is to explore how oceans help to minimize climate change by absorbing atmospheric heat and carbon dioxide in a natural process. Oceans are estimated to have absorbed more than 90% of the extra heat trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere by human-caused greenhouse gases. Swot will scan the seas from the orbit and precisely measure fine differences in surface elevations (高度) around smaller currents and eddies (漩涡), where much of the oceans’ decrease of heat and carbon is believed to occur. “Studying the mechanism will help climate scientists answer a key question: What is the turning point at which oceans start releasing, rather than absorbing, huge amounts of heat back into the atmosphere and speed up global warming, rather than limiting it,” said Nadya Shiffer, Swot’s program scientist.By comparison, earlier studies of water bodies relied on data of rivers or oceans taken at specific points, or from satellites that can only track measurements along a one-dimensional line, requiring scientists to fill in data gaps through extrapolation (外推法). Thanks to the radar instrument, Swot can scan through cloud cover and darkness over wide ranges of the Earth. This enables scientists to accurately map their observations in two dimensions regardless of weather or time of day and to cover large geographic areas far more quickly than was previously possible.“Rather than giving us a line of elevations, it’s giving us a map of elevations, and that’s just a total game changer,” said Tamlin Pavelsky, Swot freshwater sc ience leader.32．What does the underlined expression “vital resource” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Technology.B. Climate.C. Oceans.D. Water.33．What is the major mission of Swot?A. To explore the influences of greenhouse gases.B. To explain the consequence of global warming.C. To identify the causes of water absorbing heat and CO2.D. To study the mechanism of oceans influencing climate.34．What makes it possible for Swot to measure precisely?A. The high-definition computer.B. Advanced radar technology.C. The three-dimensional image.D. An accurate map of elevations.35．Which is the most suitable title for the text?A. A Solution to Climate ChangeB. A Breakthrough in Space TravelC. First Global Water Survey from SpaceD. The Successful Launch of Swot Satellite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。

Below, she recommends other novels shaped by place.The MeadowJames Galvin (1992).Galvin narrows his novel’s focus to a river in south-eastern Wyoming, the site of three generations’ struggle and achievements. “I often find myself reading each sentence twice, just to enjoy the unexpected twists of Galvin’s prose (散文). ”What Is Not Yours Is Not Y oursHelen Oyeyemi (2016).Everything about this story collection delights and puzzles the soul, in a way of experiencing the terrifying fairy tale for the first time. Each story feels like working around you in a kind of harmony you can’t even begin to comprehend until the final line.Orange WorldKaren Russell (2019).“Every new book of Russell’s instantly takes its previous book’s place as my favorite.” Place, in each of these time-jumping, world-warping stories — which unfold a map of place both real and imagined — provides physical, social, and emotional pressures on both character and reader.The Bluest EyeToni Morrison (1970).“Morrison’s novel remains my favorite, possibly owing to the particular feelings produced by its place and personhood, and its suggestion that how you experience the world is governed by age, race, and whether or not one grows up loved.”36．What do the four novels have in common?A．They have similar plots.B．They are shaped by place.C．They have the same background.D．They are written by Téa Obreht.37．Which of the statements is true about What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours?A．It fills the reader’s heart with terror.B．It’s a story collection without harmony in each story.C．It’s a prose authored by Helen Oyeyemi.D．The harmony in it can not be understood until the end.38．How does Téa Obreht evaluate Karen Russell and her Orange World ?A．It takes on a dynamic and mysterious atmosphere.B．The reader feels their pressures taken off when they read it.C．Téa always likes Karen’s new book better than her previous one.D．It presents social conflicts in different times and worlds.39．What do you know about The Bluest Eye from the last paragraph?A．Its place and personhood impress Téa Obreht a lot.B．It advocates ecological balance in nature.C．It suggests a connection between love and success.D．Age and gender impact how you experience the world.I’ve worked in the factories surrounding my hometown every summer since I graduated from high school. But making the transition between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. For a student like me who considers any class beforenever seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation.There are few people as self-confident as a college student who has never been out in the real world. People of my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. In fact, all the classes did not prepare me for my battles with the machine I ran in the plant, which would jam whenever I absent-mindedly put in a part backward or upside down.The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear overnight. Issues like downsizing and overseas relocation had always seemed distant to me until my co-workers told me that the unit I was working in would shut down within six months and move to Mexico, where people would work for 60 cents an hour.After working 12-hour shifts in a factory, the other options have become only too clear.When I’m back at the university, skipping classes and turning in lazy re-writes seems too irresponsible after seeing what I would be doing without school. All the advice and public-service announcements about the value of an education that used to sound stale now ring true.These lessons I’m learning, however precious, are always tinged (带有) with a sense of guilt. Many people pass their lives in the places I briefly work, spending 30 years where I spend only two months at a time. “This job pays well, but it’s hell on the body,” said one co-worker. “Study hard and keep reading,” she added.My experiences in the factories have inspired me to make the most of my college years before I enter the real world for good.40．How did the author look back on his summer days while at college?A．They brought him nothing but torture.B．They were no holiday for him at all.C．They were a relief from his hard work at school.D．They offered him a chance to know more people.41．Which of the following is closest to the underlined word “torture” in the first paragraph?A．Misery.B．Fortune.C．Anxiety.D．Availability. 42．What does the author say about college students?A．They expect too much from the real world.B．They have little interest in blue-collar life.C．They think too highly of themselves.D．They are confident about their future.43．What, according to the author, is most frustrating for blue-collar workers?A．They do not get decent pay.B．They do not have job security.C．They have to work 12-hour shifts.D．They have to move from place to place.44．Why does the author feel somewhat guilty?A．He realizes there is a great divide between his life and that of blue-collar workers.B．He looks down upon the mechanical work at the assembly line.C．He has not done much to help his co-workers at the factory.D．He has stayed at school just for the purpose of escaping from the real world.45．In what important way has the author’s work experience changed him?A．He learned to be more practical.B．He acquired a sense of urgency.C．He came to respect blue-collar workers.D．He came to appreciate his college education.Dreams, according to Carl Jung, reveal a certain amount of reality hidden during waking consciousness. In Jungian philosophy, the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring order to our lives. While Jung’s mystical theories are debatable, he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming. A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways.This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic systems, let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patterns, which has long-term consequences on our memory system. One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, the stage in which we dream, the mice couldn’t strengthen memories.You might think this is just a sleep problem, but dreaming is inseparable from our nighttime rest. We sleep in cycles, each lasting about 90 minutes; in a sleep cycle, we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM. As the night progresses, REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep (one of the stages of non-REM sleep) decreases. The longer we sleep, the more time we spend in REM, which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning. If we sleep less than seven hours, however, it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM.The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer. We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly. However, we’re not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant (抗抑郁剂) — dreams. Instead, we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep, which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM.We’re paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways. For example, a 2021 study stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep, REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration of unassociated information. V olunteers thatexperienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring innovative solutions.Rowan Hooper, the managing editor at New Scientist, writes that dreams that include an “emotional core” appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we do diet and exercise habits.46．What’s Carl Jung’s view about dreams?A．They cause chaos.B．They damage immunity.C．They reveal secrets.D．They mirror reality.47．Why is the sleep process explained in Paragraph 3?A．To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep.B．To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours.C．To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached.D．To show people often dream when waking up in the morning.48．Which of the following statements is true according to the author?A．Deep sleep is one of the stages of REM sleep.B．Adequate REM sleep contributes to a better memory.C．A sound sleep without dreams brings about stable emotions.D．The longer we sleep, the less time we spend in REM.49．What conclusion can be inferred from Paragraph 5?A．Dreaming promotes creativity.B．Dreaming helps fight depression.C．The brain still receives new information during REM sleep.D．The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep.50．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．The importance of sleep lies in dreams.B．The absence of dreams is terrible for us.C．Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize.D．Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories.Many years ago, I bumped into an old friend of mine. He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful. In his middle age, he seemed defeated and sad.I thought of his dogged perseverance. Was it smart or foolish? What could he haveachieved? Had he quit his dream of acting and moved on? Our culture does not look kindly upon quitting. Failure is perfectly acceptable as long as it eventually results in success.We chant “Winners never quit” and “If at first you don’t succeed, try again.” We lap up stories of persistence, of the author who submitted stories for years before her novels were published or of the athlete who trained since childhood to win gold at the Olympics.Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person. For every JK Rowling, there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published. For every Olympic athlete, there are innumerable others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.We all agree that doing the same things and expecting a different result is unwise. So why do we believe that persevering through failure after failure is a good idea? We consider quitting in the face of failure to be weak. We believe that perseverance is the key to success. Perseverance is only one part of success. You need talent or skill, as well as passion and drive. Luck and timing are also key to any great success.Our society believes that anything is possible, as long as you “believe”. But not everyone can make it. Quitting when you’ re not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do. Obviously, if you enjoy a pursuit, regardless of its outcome, you should continue. If you knew your novel would never be published, would you want to write? If you could never be a champion swimmer, would you still train? Sometimes, it is wise to put your energy into something else.Failure is not always the path to success. Sometimes, failure is the door to something new.51．What do we know about the author’s old friend?A．He was dissatisfied with his acting performance.B．He switched his dream of acting to something else.C．He failed in acting because of a lack of persistence.D．He failed in all attempts to become a successful actor.52．The author mentioned JK Rowling mainly to ______.A．explain how she achieved success in writingB．show that success doesn’t happen to everyoneC．prove that success favors those who are perseverantD．encourage readers to pursue their dream until they succeed53．What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 4?A．Held on to their dreams.B．Met the required standard.C．Improved their performances.D．Promised to be good players.54．What does the author advise us to do if we’ve failed many times?A．Make an effort to try new things.B．Stick to your goal until we succeed.C．Wait for the right time and good luck.D．Ask friends or family members for help.55．Which of the following do you think is the best title for the passage?A．Stick to your dream--anything is possibleB．Perseverance: the secret to successC．Flexibility vs. PerseveranceD．Perseverance-the only access to success?四、阅读表达阅读表达Why are so many people unhappy in their jobs? There are two primary reasons. First, some people are convinced that earning a living is wasting time that they could spend enjoying themselves or uncovering their true talents.If this is the case with you, recall your last long vacation. Was it two weeks of complete enjoyment? More likely it was a week and a half of fun in the sun, with another half a week of “Boy, I can’t wait to get back to work.” If you didn’t feel such vacation blues, then imagine taking a leave of absence. You could use it to work on a novel, attend classes or just sit around watching TV. At the end of three months, in all likelihood, your self-respect would be at an all-time low. While all work and no play are not good, all play and no work are disastrous. We need to feel we are accomplishing something. We also need some form of order in our lives.The second and perhaps more common reason for people not to like their work is that they feel trapped. Once you’ve been at a company for five years and get married, have amortgage and a child, you often feel you have very little choice about jumping ship if things aren’t turning out as you’d planned. A steady paycheck can be the biggest restrict of all. People hate having to do something because they have no other choice.If you find yourself hating your job, your option takes the form of an up-to-date resume. You might also take a weekly glance through the help-wanted section, and make some visits to industry functions where low-key networking can take place. You’re not giving up on your current job. Rather, you are providing yourself with an option. If things get unbearable at work, you could jump ship.At the core of adopting a positive attitude to your workplace is, above all, assuming responsibility for your own situation. Most people feel controlled by their environment, but they really aren’t. They have to learn to manage that environment so they can get from it what they need.56．What are people likely to do after a long vacation according to the author? (No more than 10 words)57．What can people get from work according to the second paragraph? (No more than 10 words)58．How do you interpret the underlined word in the last paragraph? (One word)59．What do you think is the main idea of the passage? (No more than 15 words)60．What will you do if you hate your job one day in the future? (No more than 20 words)五、其他应用文61．假设你是李津，10月26日中午12:30你校在校园举办了“凉山义卖”活动，为四川凉山的贫困孩子们筹款。

江苏省丹阳高级中学2024届高三下学期2月月考英语试卷(含答案)
江苏省丹阳高级中学2024届高三下学期2月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解The Self-Portrait ChallengeHave you ever done a self-portrait in an art lesson at school? Today, we’re challenging you to write self-portrait poems. It’s not uncommon to feel like the way people see you on the outside doesn’t quite match up with how you feel on the inside. So creating a self-portrait can be a good opportunity to address those differences and present the realest, truest version of yourself.Your challenge is to create a self-portrait in lines, using words instead of paint. Read on for some more inspiration.Writing Tips● Have a go at writing a list of metaphors exploring your physical appearance, starting from your head and working your way down towards your feet.● Instead of representing yourself directly, take on another character, such as a fictional character, a historical figure, or even a different version of yourself.● Play around with personification, by taking on the voice of a physica l object in your poem. Think about what a self-portrait from the point of view of a mirror, or a bowl of your favourite food would look like?How to enterThis challenge is for writers aged up to 25 based anywhere in the world. The deadline is 23:59 GMT, 17 March 2024. You can send a poem, or poems, written down, or as video orto make a free Submittable account to submit in this way. Using Submittable helps our team to administrate and process entries more quickly. Selected poets will be published on Young Poets Network.1．What does the Self-portrait Challenge encourage participants to do?A. Explore true selves.B. Convey positive emotions.C. Illustrate personal profiles.D. Compare different personalities.2．What is suggested to better handle the challenge?A. Using simple language.B. Presenting yourself directly.C.

An online platform.In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest; a competition she won last year.As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the con test again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.An enligh tenment came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into mine without even realizing it.Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting (借用) my daughter’s experience.While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.4．What do we learn from the first paragraph?A. Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activities.B. Rebecca draws on a lot of online materials for her writing.C. Rebecca is much too occupied to enjoy her leisure time.D. A lot of distractions compete for children’s time nowadays.5．What does the author say about her own writing experience?A. She does not quite live up to her reputation as a writer.B. Her way to success is full of pains and frustrations.C. She is constantly under pressure of writing more.D. Most of her stories are rejected by publishers.6．Why does Rebecca wan t to enter this year’s writing contest?A. She wants to share her story with readers.B. She believes she possesses real talent for writing.C. She is sure of winning with her mother’s help.D. She has won a prize in the previous contest.7．What’s the author’s advice for parents?A. A writing career is not for every child to pursue.B. Children should be allowed room to grow through experiences.C. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.D. Children should be given every chance to voice their options.Andrea Lankford quit her job after spending 12 years as a National Park Service forester specializing in search and rescue missions in scenic and remote American landscapes. However, decades later, three young hikers went missing on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). She found herself unable to turn away from the three separate cases despite challenges in the inquiry into them.Trail of the Lost was her answer.It’s an absorbing nonfiction narrative (叙事) about the three hikers, including their lives and those of the people looking for them. It also explores the history of the PCT and the rich subculture, practices and even literature that surround it and those who undertake the 2,650-mile journey.The book is a rich multilayered narrative that works on three different levels. The first is the story of each of the three hikers. Lankford offers a biography (传记) of each of the missing men and shows them through the eyes of those who knew them well and those who joined the search.Right underneath the narratives about the three hikers are the stories of everyone looking for them. Lankford played a role in each search but she allowed friends, family and even strangers to occupy center stage throughout most of the narrative. The story looks at the role of missing person Facebook groups in the searches and how crucial word of mouth can be. Many warm-hearted individuals came forth and became instrumental in the searches orprovided valuable information. But Lankford also writes of the many who lied for no apparent reason and confused the investigations.The narrative also shines a light on diverse aspects of the PCT. Lankford, who has hiked the entire Appalachian Trail and was the first person to mountain bike the 800-mile Arizona Trail, knows just how the PCT is physically and mentally demanding. Besides, the book explores threats from mountain lions to people with bad intentions who don’t observe the PCT’s unspoken moral rules, serving as a revelation of the well-known, hidden or ignored dangers of the PCT.Written with a clear, fast-paced, straightforward style, Trail of the Lost is as full of hope and humanity as it is packed with pain, sorrow, danger and tension. Read it and you’ll find more than you seek.8．What led Lankford to write Trail of the Lost?A. Her love for her prior career.B. Her strong attachment to the PCT.C. The stress from the missing families.D. Her investigation into hikers’ disappearance.9．What is presented on the second level of the book?A. Efforts by different people in searches.B. A string of wilderness survival tips.C. Approaches to information classification.D. Respective stories of the three hikers.10．What’s the purpose of mentioning Lankford’s previous adventures?A. To promote her book.B. To make her a celebrity.C. To motivate hikers to challenge themselves.D. To stress the difficulty of hiking the PCT.11．What can we say about the book?A. It targets single youth.B. It’s a romantic novel.C. It’s based on actual events.D. It’s a detailed account of a journey.The idea that we need to eat meat to get enough protein and iron is a common misconception. It ignores the abundance of protein and iron in many plant-based foods. Likewise, while we typically associate omega-3 fatty acids with fish, fish themselves absorb these into their tissue by eating seaweed, which we can consume directly without theconcerns of exposure to microplastics in fish flesh.Indeed, a whole-food, plant-based diet can provide all essential nutrients except for vitamin B12. While modern sanitation (卫生) allows humans to consume clean produce unpolluted by dirt, we can easily and cheaply obtain oral B12 supplements (补充).Obviously, significantly reducing our consumption of meat would carry vast benefits. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death around the world. Eating highly processed foods and red meat has been repeatedly demonstrated to promote underlying mechanisms of cancer and cardiovascular disease, such as inflammation(炎症)and damage to the lining of blood vessels (血管).Mounting evidence points to the benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet. Studies from 2017found that a vegetarian diet is associated with a 25 percent relative risk reduction for coronary heart disease and an 8 percent relative risk reduction for cancer, with a vegan diet related to a 15 percent relative risk reduction for cancer.Besides harming ourselves, eating meat harms others. Factory farming practices oftenOvercrowding of livestock and workers promotes the spread of disease among both people and animals, putting us all at risk for future pandemics. The overuse of antibiotics (抗生素) to accelerate animal growth and precautiously treat the infections anticipated as a result of living in unclean and overcrowded conditions can promote antibiotic resistance.While national and international action is undoubtedly needed to fight immoral factory farming practices, educators and policy makers should consider the importance of acting as role models for healthy behaviors themselves as well as advocating for policies that ensure better nutritional access and education for others. All of these should not be excuses for individuals to resist changes in their own lives and communities. Societies change only when enough individuals within them alter their behavior.12．The author writes the first two paragraphs mainly to ______.A. introduce a false belief in nutrition sourceB. compare the differences between two dietsC. highlight the importance of nutrition intakeD. show the concerns of healthy diet advocates13．Which of the following logic chains is reasonable according to the passage?A.B.C.D.14．What does the underline d word “entail” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. escape.B. involve.C. balance.D. overcome. 15．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. A Meatless Diet Is Better for YouB. Food Problems Call for Joint EffortsC. Say No to Processed Meat ConsumptionD. Eatable Greens or Not? That Is a Question二、七选五16．We humans are comparison creatures. ①________ This quality may have evolved as a means of helping us fit into the social hierarchy (等级) of the cultures we inhabited. Regardless of the reasons, social comparison plays a significant role in how we view and evaluate ourselves, and how we interact with our world.It used to be that our primary reference of comparison was our local communities, primarily neighbors and co-workers. Because we tend to gather around those similar to ourselves in terms of educational level, work income, and shared interests, the range of differences when we compared ourselves to others was fairly small. Unfortunately, with the emergence of the Internet, we can now compare ourselves to literally anyone in the world. ②________ What had in previous generations been a small gap in our comparisons has now become so large and unattainable.③________ When so many people that are easily discoverable on the Internet seem to be so successful. famous, influential and beautiful, given our preference to compare, it is difficult not to have it influence how we view ourselves. Sadly, these comparisons usually result in our feeling inadequate and “less than”.These harmful comparisons also damage our emotional lives. When we feel lacking, we experience a variety of unpleasant and unhealthy emotions. We feel jealousy and envy for what others have and what we lack. ④________It’s one thing to realize that you compare yourself to others. It’s another thing to recognize that social comparison is often corrosive (逐步侵蚀的) to you in so many ways psychologically and emotionally. It’s an entirely other thing to stop yourself from comparing yourself to others. ⑤________A. We are constantly measuring ourselves against other people.B. Yet it is possible, and it is worth the effort for your mental health.C. Thus, we are now exposed to groups that are quite different from us.D. We believe that there is something wrong with us compared to others.E. We can even feel bitterness and anger at others for the unfairness of it all.F. Comparing ourselves to others has the potential to increase our life experience.G. This new level of comparison has huge implications for our psychological lives.三、完形填空（15空）“A new student is waiting in your room.” My principal announced. “Name’s Mary.

ANeed a fall fix? Try one from these great places.1. Mackinac Island, MichiganThe only way to reach this famed car-free island is by boat and ferry, and once visitors arrive, they are attracted by the history, scenery and fall colors. “It’s a throwback to years past, a little town, and there’s a big state park as well,〞Blackwell says. “ You’re allowed to have boats all around the island.〞2. Tellico Lake, TennesseeWith nearly 400 miles of shoreline, this waterway flowing out of the Great Smoky Mountains is largely unexploited, well-protected in its natural state.Fall visitors find a range of colors reflecting in the clean waters, says Blackwell, who vacationed in the area with his family as a child. “The thick forest there just allows you to see more greenery and wildlife."3. Dillon Reservoir, ColoradoWith an hour from Denver, this lake is home to what claims to be thenation's highest sailing club, at an altitude of more than 9,000 feet. Marinas in the towns of Dillon and Frisco make it easy to get out on he water and to see the bright yellows and golds of fall leaves. “ People are surprised thatthere's boating in Colorado, and you can see the mountains just before the snowball," Blackwell says.4. Lake Monroe, IndianaThe state’s largest lake is surrounded by more than 13,000 acres of protected forest and three recreation areas, making it an ideal place to seefall colors, particularly from oaks and the tulip poplar, the state tree.“ It’s a gem (宝石(bǎoshí)) in southern Indiana," says Blackwell, who grew up in the area. “There are lots of different activities: canoeing, kayaking and fishing.〞1. What is special about Mackinac Island?A. It’s like a modern city.B. Visitors can’t take a boa t around it.C. Visitors can see various wildlife there.D. Visitors can’t go there by cars.2. Which is suitable for someone looking for an undeveloped place for vacation?A. Mackinac Island, Michigan.B. Tellico Lake, Tennessee.C. Dillon Reservoir, Colorado.D. Lake Monroe, Indiana.3. What do the four places have in common?A. Blackwell once travelled there.B. They are all famous tourist destinations.C. They are surrounded by thick forests.D.

As a recently conducted survey indicates, the rate of students being shortsighted is increasing at a discouraging speed.According to the survey, about 14.3% of preschool kids are shortsighted. As for primary school students, the rate has climbed to 35.6%. However, that rate dramatically doubles after students attend junior high school, which accounts for 71.1% of the total. Astonishingly, nearly four fifths of senior high school students are suffering from a poor vision. From the survey, it is apparent that the age for the beginning of shortsightedness is getting younger. Meanwhile, there is a sharp progression of shortsightedness during the high school.。
