Is it because they are lazy? Of course not. In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758 — 1843). He was a teacher who reformed (改革) English to make American identity (特征) stronger. Linguists (语言学家) celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.After the Revolutionary War (1775 — 1783), Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary, rather than rely on British dictionaries. He dropped the British “u” in some words. And he changed “centre” into “center” for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded. He used “subway” instead of British word “underground”. Some other examples are “soccer” and “football”, “fall” and “autumn”.Webster wasn’t shy about expressing his opinions. In defining (定义) preposterous(unreasonable), he wrote: “A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous.” Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000-word dictionary with his American-style spelling in 1828. He also added local words.His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity (统一) and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.“He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity,” said Joshua Kendall, who is working on a book about Webster. “He at last brought us together through our language.”4．Which is NOT true about Webster’s dictionary?A．It has local words in it.B．It is a 70,000-word dictionary.C．All the words are spelled without “u”.D．Its words are in American-style spelling.5．What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Depend on.B．Trust in.C．Put up with.D．Give up. 6．What do people think of Webster’s dictionary?A．It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.B．It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.C．It has no influence on the development of American English.D．It helped to make American English more useful than British English.7．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．The development of the British English.B．American English is better than British English.C．Noah Webster added local words to the dictionary.D．Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.COne August afternoon, Richard Allen dropped off his last passenger, Mrs. Carey. Lifting two grocery bags, he followed her across the yard and stood on the step of her house. Glancing up, he saw a large wasp (黄蜂) nest under the roof. Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting (蜇) in summer. He mentioned this to Mrs. Carey, who had opened the door.“Oh, they don’t bother me,” she said lightly. “I go in and out all the time.”Anxiously, Allen looked at the nest again—— to see the wasps flying straight at him. “Hurry!” he shouted to Mrs. Carey. “Get in!”She stepped quickly inside. Allen ran for his mini-bus. Too late; they were upon him. Just as he jumped aboard, half a dozen red spots showed on his arm, and he felt more on his back and shoulders.As he was driving down the road, Allen felt as if something was burning at the back of his neck, and the “fire” was spreading forward toward his face. And immediate anxiety took hold of him.Allen knew that stings could cause some persons to die. But he had been stung the previous summer and the after-effects soon passed. However, what he didn’t know what that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.Miles from the nearest medical assistance, Allen began to feel his tongue thick and heavy and his heartbeat louder. Most frightening, he felt his breathing more and more difficult. He reached for the radio mike (话筒), trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable. Signals were also poor that far out. He knew a rescue team was on 24-hour duty at the Amherst Fire Department’s north station. So his best chance was to make a run for it.Rushing down the mountain, Allen tried not to panic, focusing his mind on each sharp turn. He was almost through the last of them when he felt sure he was going into shock (休克). Just then he reached for the radio mike again.“Call fire station,” he shouted, concentrating to form the words. “Emergency. Bee sting. Emergency. There in ten minutes.”“Five-ten,” the center replied.Hold on, Allen thought. Keep your eyes open. Breathe. Keep awake.At last he reached the station. Two firemen ran out. Allen felt their hands grasp him before he hit the ground. You made it, he thought.8．It is mentioned in the passage that wasps are more likely to attack when _______.A．there are huge noisesB．strangers are approachingC．the air is filled with food smellD．the hottest season comes around9．Allen didn’t know that if stung by wasps again, he would _______.A．have no after-effectsB．suffer from sharper painC．surely lose his lifeD．become more sensitive10．Allen failed at his first attempt to send his message to the mini-bus center because _______.A．he was unable to speak clearlyB．his radio equipment was poorC．he was in a state of shockD．no one was on duty11．Which would be the best title for the passage?A．Allen, A Helpless DriverB．Wasps, Bloody KillersC．A Race Against DeathD．War Against WaspsDArmy ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.Christopher Reid of the University of Sydney’s Insect Behaviour and Ecology Laboratory, said that when studying the ant bridge, he initially assumed that once the ant bridge was built the two end positions of the bridge would be fixed, and the bridge itself would be relatively stationary (不动的).However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes. In this way, it can continuously compress the distance to the target area.Meanwhile, the researchers have also found that the changing ant bridge does not always achieve the shortest distance. When the bridge is extended to a certain extent, the number of ants involved in the construction of the ant bridge will not continue to increase, and the length of the bridge will stop growing.Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.12．What is mainly introduced about army ants in paragraph 1?A．Their migration.B．Their distribution.C．Their living habits.D．Their hunting targets.13．What did the research find about the bridge built by army ants ?A．It becomes longer constantly.B．It keeps unchanged once built.C．It achieves the shortest distance.D．It is adjusted according to the needs.14．What does the underlined word “compress” mean in paragraph 3?A．Reduce.B．Calculate.C．Neglect.D．Judge.15．What is the writing purpose of the text ?A．To stress the importance of cooperation.B．To explain army ants’ incredible strength.C．To show army ants’ collective intelligence.D．To indicate the harmony between nature and human.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2023-2024学年上海师大附中高三上期中英语试卷II.Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections:After reading the passage below,fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word,fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each blank.How to future-proof your career against the threat of AIEver since the industrial revolution,people have feared that technology would take away their jobs.While some jobs and tasks have indeed been replaced by machines,(21)_________ have emerged.The fear that jobs might disappear or be replaced through automation is understandable.Recent research found that a quarter of tasks that humans currently do in the US and Europe could be automated in the coming years.The future of work is a popular topic of discussion,with countless books(22)_________ (publish)each year on the topic.These books speak to the human need to understand how to future might be shaped.A strong theme of concern is found in these books about technology enabling certain tasks to be automated,(23)_________(make)many people out of jobs.Specifically,(24)_________worries people is that knowledge-based jobs--like those in accounting or law--that have long been regarded as being exclusive（专属的、专有的）to well-educated professionals are now under threat of replacement by machines.But there is another, (25)_________(ambitious)way to think about this.Some books stress the potential of humans collaborating with AI,to enhance each other's skills.(26)_________being replaced,lawyers would then be empowered by technology.In reality,automation and empowerment co-exist,both of which(27)_________(concern)with your future career.In light of this,the key to future-proofing your job is continued learning,(28)_________is a valuable skill to develop in any career.Also,critical thinking and analytical skills are going to be particularly central for how humans and machines(29)_________empower one another.Above all,choose a job that you enjoy and keep learning(30)_________if you do need to change course in the future,you know how to.Section BDirections:Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.advanceB.appealC.associationD.differsE.diligentlyF.entirelyG.frustrationH.produceI.uncooperativeJ.vagueK.worthyThe garden pathImagine a plate holding two strawberries,identical in appearance.One came out of a supermarket box.By the time it reached the plate it may have been off the vine for two weeks.The other strawberry was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten.The first one will probably taste like a slightly sour cucumber,with a(n)__31__hint of berry taste.The second is likely to be sweet and floral（花的、花卉的）.Supermarket strawberries are not __32__without advantages:they are convenient and available in the northern hemisphere（地球的半球）in February.But the two berries are distinct from each other in the same way that hearing music in a concert hall__33__from listening to it on a worn-out cassette.The home-grown fruit is an edible（可食用的、能吃的）case for cultivating a home garden.Those who long dismissed gardening as a waste of time__34__this argument with great passion.They think a garden can yield peas that taste like the vibrant,green essence of spring; tomatoes and carrots of incomparable sweetness;and lettuces and herbs that taste like themselves rather than the plastic they are usually packaged in.Growing your own vegetables ensures a reliable supply,offering virtuous seasonal__35__.That attitude misrepresents the ultimate__36__of gardening;it mistakes the product for the purpose.On the other hand,a garden,especially in the early years,can also yield little but__37__. New gardeners may plant the wrong crops for their soil.And even expert gardeners can lose a season's harvest to__38__weather.No matter.The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it.The deepest pleasure--as with cooking,writing,bringing up children or almost anything worthwhile--is in the work itself.A gardener's memories centre not on the food produced,but on long summer afternoons with hands in the dirt,surrounded by family,if the garden is at home,or deepening__39__with friendsand neighbours in a community garden.To garden is to__40__help life thrive（兴隆、兴旺、繁荣）with love and patience,in the ground and above it.III.Reading ComprehensionsSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage,there are four words or phrases marked A,B, C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Traveler's dilemmaAn airline loses two suitcases belonging to two different travelers,Lucy and Pete.Both suitcases happen to be the same and also contain__41__antiques.An airline manager tasked to settle their claims figures that simply asking the travelers for the price is hopeless,for they may __42__it.Instead,he asks them to write down the price of the antique as any dollar between2and 100__43__so that they can't negotiate with each other.If both write the same number,he will pay each of them that amount.But if they write different numbers,he will assume that the lower one is the actual price and that the person writing the higher number is__44__.In that case,he will pay both of them the lower number along with a(n)__45__and a punishment--the person who wrote the lower number will get$2more as a reward for honesty and the one who wrote the higher number will get$2less instead.__46__,if Lucy writes46and Pete writes100,Lucy will get$48 and Pete will get$44.What numbers will Lucy and Pete write?In1994,economist Kaushik Basu crafted the"Traveler's Dilemma"(TD)to challenge the narrow view of__47__.TD serves the purpose because the game's logic dictates that2is the logical option.Admittedly,Lucy's first idea is that she should write the largest possible number, which will earn her$100if Pete is similarly__48__.Soon,however,it strikes her that if she wrote 99instead,she would make a little more money,because in that case she would get$101.But surely this__49__will also occur to Pete,who will choose99as well.Continuing with this line of reasoning would send the travelers down to the smallest permissible number,namely,2-this is where the__50__leads us.In experimental studies,contrary to the predictions,most people pick$100or a number close to it,either without thinking the problem through or while fully aware they are__51__the reasonable choice.So,while most people instinctively feel that they would select a much highernumber than$2,this instinct seems to__52__the predicted logical outcome,$2.By rejecting the logical choice and acting illogically by writing a higher number,people end up getting a substantially bigger__53__.Based on these studies,researchers have proposed that people appear to have a natural,positive attitude in favor of__54__.This attitude leads to a cooperative model that favors the seemingly unreasonable but__55__strategies.41.A.precious B.identical C.controversial D.fake42.A.assess B.highlight C.neglect D.overstate43.A.intentionally B.precisely

marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Do Your Employees suffer from Friday-Itis?Have you heard about Friday-itis,the significant drop in motivation and concentration seen on Fridays among may workers who look forward to their weekend days off but a day in advance?Almost every employee has at some point experienced the need to take an unplanned day offfor rest,for the sake of his physical or mental health.Defined by the Labour Standards Act and most collective agreements and employment contracts,a sick day is a one-time day of leave taken by an employee due to the inability,whether psychological and physical,to be present at his workplace to adequately carry out his professional functions.Short and occasional,this involuntary absence is easily accepted and absorbed by the company.But when it is repeated and almost invariably falls on the eve of a weekend,absence for last minute sickness can quickly give an employer a headache.When it becomes avoidable,systematic and based on a false motive,this"Friday Sickness" syndrome falls into the category of unreasonable and abusive absenteeism.This has significant impact on a company's organizational efficiency,productivity and competitiveness.So much so that many managers avoid setting up important meetings on Fridays,knowing the higher likelihood that their staff will all be at work the rest of the week.Despite the high cost of absenteeism,a study published in2012by the Conference Board of Canada found that only46%of Canadian companies report that they monitor their employees' absences and the reasons given.To properly assess absenteeism means beginning to understand it and not letting it pass.Although abusive in form and use,Friday sick leave can also be explained by other factors that need to be taken seriously.An employee can take a break in the wrong way that he might reasonably need,in connection with factors specific to the company--having a clearly excessive, workload,for example.Focusing on suspicious monitoring or the threat of fines is not a solution for employers. Indirectly forcing presenteeism on an employee,in other words to come in and stay at work even when he has serious reasons not to do so,can be even more damaging for everyone.Statistics Canada estimates that loss of productivity associated with presenteeism is7.5times higher than that caused by absenteeism.56.What is Friday-itis?A.A decrease in motivation on Fridays due to employees anticipating the weekend.B.A medical condition that specifically affects employees on Fridays.C.A term used to describe excessive absenteeism on Fridays.D.A syndrome where employees refuse to work on Fridays.57.According to the passage,what kind of absence does the company easily accept?A.Absence for last minute sickness.B.Repeated absence before weekends.C.Short and occasional absence.D.Avoidable and systematic absence.58.What impact does repeated last-minute sickness absences on Fridays have on employers?A.It leads to increased productivity and competitiveness.B.It causes employees to prioritize rest and their overall well-being.C.It has a negative impact on organizational efficiency and productivity.D.It provides employers with a headache due to the need for more meetings.59.What is the potential consequence of forcing presenteeism on employees?A.It leads to a decrease in overall productivity.B.It results in a decrease in absenteeism rates.C.It helps in improving employees'motivation and concentration.D.It causes employees to take unplanned days off more frequently.(B)Memberships Sun City OV Resident Public Single Couple Single Couple18Hole PlayCurrent

a problem unique to animals.But a new study by Ali Akbar has revealed that plants suffer too.That plants can be damaged indirectly by noise pollution has never been in doubt.Since most flowering species depend upon pollinators（授粉者）and most fruit-bearing species need animals to spread around their seeds,it is obvious that if these animal partners are harmed by noise then their botanical counterparts（同类者、极其相似的人或物）will do badly,too.What has remained unknown is whether or not plants themselves suffer directly from noise pollution.Scientists have previously assumed that plants may be able to sense sound waves as they are struck by them.A number of experiments have confirmed this in recent years--plants heavily exposed to ultrasound（超声）in the lab have shown a range of negative responses including the expression of stress-related genes,slowed growth and reduced development of seeds.Yet attacking plants with ultrasound is not the same as growing them in the presence of actual traffic noise.To this end,Ali Akbar decid'ed to set up an experiment to study precisely this question.Working with a team of colleagues,he grew marigolds and sage in his lab that are commonly found in urban environments.The plants were divided into two groups after getting mature.One group was exposed to73decibels（分贝）of traffic noise.The other group was left to grow in silence.After15days had passed,samples were taken from the youngest fully expanded leaves on every plant in the experiment and studied.None of the plants exposed to the traffic noise did well.Analysis of their leaves revealed that all of them were suffering.The team found that a range of hormones（荷尔蒙）normally associated with healthy growth and development in plants were present at significantly reduced levels in the plants exposed to the noise.Two stress hormones,which are normally produced to prevent insect attacks and deal with salty soil or very cold temperatures,were elevated.Ali Akbar's findings make it clear that though plants lack ears,the noise of traffic still bothers them enough to trigger dramatic stress responses that are not much different to those that would befound in plants exposed to drought,highly concentrated salt or heavy metals in their soil.The next question is whether all noise pollution affects all species in the same way.The natural world is by no means silent.Whether some plant species have evolved coping mechanisms, which might one day be collected and transferred into urban-living species,is a mystery worth exploring.63.What did scientists believe in the past?A.Noise is a problem facing both animals and plants.B.Plants can be affected by noise in an indirect way.C.Animal partners can do harm to their botanical partners.D.Sound waves can damage plants they strike.64.What did Ali Akbar want to confirm in their experiment?A.Ultrasound is similar to traffic noise in that it doesn't harm plants.B.Plants exposed to ultrasound exhibit negative signs of growth.C.Traffic noise causes plants to grow unhealthfully and slowly.D.Plant leaves contain hormones dealing with a harsh environment.65.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Plants growing is silence have a reduced level of hormones.B.Plants exposed to noise respond differently from those in drought.C.Different noise pollution has the same effect on all species.D.An increases in stress hormones in plants means they are in hardship.66.What can we infer from the passage?A.Some plants may not necessarily be harmed by the sound in nature.B.Some plants have surely developed a method to cope with traffic noise.C.Unban-living species can be engineered to grow well in the natural world.D.The silence in nature promotes the development of noise coping mechanisms.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.So people feel like they are getting more done.B.If you do these or similar things,then you are one of many multitaskers.C.People are less able to filter out their knowledge of the previous task and look at things afresh.D.Some psychologists say that the human brain just isn't good at concentrating on two things at the same time.E.Recent studies,however,show that Melissa and others like her are perhaps getting less done than they think they are.F.Now,with numerous studies to refer to,the answer could not be more clear-multitasking isn't all it's supposed to be.Are you a multitasker?Do you watch TV and cook dinner at the same time?Do you often interrupt your work to check your email?Do you talk on your phone while you're driving?_________67_________ According to a survey by the magazine Scientific American MIND,90percent of American adults multitask regularly.Most people say they multitask because they are too busy,and multitasking saves time. Popular electronic devices like tablets and smart phones make it convenient to do several tasks at once._________68_________Melissa Brown of Evanston,Illinois,says she has no trouble listening to music,surfing the Internet,and sending text messages to friends while she does her homework._________69_________That's because with multitasking,there are actually many "micro-interruptions"in which people stop one task,start another,and eventually return to the first one.These stops and starts make it difficult to concentrate,and so multitaskers actually waste time, according to a study at Microsoft Corporation.In the study,workers who interrupted their work to answer an email or text message took an average of15minutes to return to the work they were doing before the interruption._________70_________This doesn't matter if you're only preparing a salad and listening to the radio,they say.But if you're doing a difficult task that requires thinking,like writing a report, then multitasking can slow you down and cause mistakes.It can even be dangerous,as in the case of people who talk on the phone,eat,or even apply makeup while driving.IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following three passages.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.Brain HungerDo you ever feel like no matter how much you eat,you are still not full?You may be suffering from a condition known as"brain hunger".This occurs when the dopamine（多巴胺）signaling in your brain is damaged,making it difficult for your body to recognize when it has had enough food.What are the underlying causes of brain hunger?Genetics can play a role.Research has shown that the dopamine receptor D4gene may be responsible for regulating cognitive functions related to eating behavior and body weight.Some people have this gene variation that does not allow for a normal dopamine release in response to things that typically would bring joy and pleasure,including food.This means that those individuals won't get the same"high"feeling they would normally experience when eating. Obesity is also linked to brain hunger.Brain scans of obese individuals show changes in dopamine signaling pathways which can lead to less recognition of the feeling of being full even after a meal.While it is still unclear whether obesity or genetics is the primary contributor to brain hunger, one thing is certain losing weight alone is not enough for those affected.Studies show that certain areas of the brain responsible for sensing fullness do not change even with weight loss,which could lead to continued hunger and weight regain.So,what came first:genetics or obesity that cause this brain signaling change?It is possible that if someone has a genetic tendency to be affected by this abnormal dopamine signaling,an environmental trigger can start a series of brain hunger which brings about overeating.It is also important to practice mindful eating and pay attention to hunger cues to begin perceiving the feeling of being full.Brain hunger can be an uncomfortable and frustrating condition,but it is possible to manage through a combination of treatments.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in thebrackets.72.要不了多久这款新产品就会被推向市场。

several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)It's bad,but its not all bad.During the lockdown,to be confined in your home with the people you love most against an invisible disease may be,at times,uncomfortable.But it can also be like living inside a poem.For me,especially early in the pandemic,it was also more than a little like living in a war zone again.The danger is real but also in some ways random.You assess risk constantly.In the first days of New York's lockdown,at the market closest to my house,the handle of the shopping cart stared up at me.It was a bluish-purple strand of plastic that seemed to hold death.I had left the house without wipes.My son was climbing on everything.People said it felt like living in a horror movie.That was not the sensation.A horror movie moves between fear and the delighted anticipation of fear.The feeling in the market was theleaden tug of dread.It was steady,and pressed you down,the way a survivor of a bombing says a blast wave does.It was also a kind of gift.Against this backdrop,what you value in life is more vivid.You can't call it a silver lining,but there is a quality of light involved,a lining that lights up edges.As a friend said after receiving a stage4cancer diagnosis,"A mirror doesn't work without backing.You need the black."That is the value in these days.Ordinarily,to experience what much of the country was experiencing in kitchens and family rooms,you would have had to get yourself to join the army.I once was a war correspondent and ran a news center for a while in a war zone.The danger was real but also in some ways random. We assessed risk constantly.And it was understood that any one of us would die for the other: "The truth of war,"David Finkel wrote in Thank You For Your Service,"is that it's always about loving the guy next to you."And if you're already in love with that person?Think of a man in bed,his family asleep down the hall as he dreams of faraway places.I was in faraway places,dreaming of a family asleep down the hall.After we left the market I kept telling my son not to touch his face.So of course he reached for his cheek.Then he walked down a sidewalk that was all but empty.Knowing what's important, people were staying home.56.Living in a war zone is similar to living in a locked down city in that_________.A.people are confined to their homes against invisible dangers.B.people constantly evaluate risks of real but random dangersC.people delightedly anticipate sliver linings lighting up their livesD.people have to join certain organizations to have same experience57.By saying"the leaden tug of dread"in Paragraph3,the author means that_________.A.the market was a horrible place in a thrillerB.the fear was deeply depressing and frustratingC.the horror movie offered long-lasting sensationD.the fearful survivor often recalls blast waves58.According to the author,what gift does the lockdown afford us?A.We are clearer about what we value in life.B.We know our images better against the backdrop.C.We start to be in love with the person next to us.D.We increasingly miss our family in faraway places.59.We can learn from the passage that_________.A.the handle of the shopping cart is poisonous.B.the author's friend likes wearing black clothesC.the author revealed the truth of war in a bookD.the author's son didn't realize the danger at all(B)Superb Spring GardensSunshine on your face,the scent of blossom in the air,the dreamy song of a blackbird.What better way to while away a spring day than in a country garden filled with flowers like magnolia, rhododendron,primula,iris,daffodils or bluebells?Here are a four of the best.LONDONThe Savili GardenEgham,Surrey.Open daily.Part of the Windsor Great Park estate,with one of the country's finest plant collections.Aptly named Spring Wood is planted with magnolia and rhododendron,including many Loderi hybrids,the flowers of which are deliciously scented,while the Azalea Walk is at its peak in mid to late May.Brilliant for families with a great cafe,too. /en YORKSHIREThe Hirnalayan Garden Grewelthorpe,North Yorkshire.Open daily from12April.Set in a valley between Harrogate and Ripon, this garden features hundreds of native Himalayan plants in a setting that is perhaps as close as you can get to being in an actual Himalayan valley-especially on a misty morning.Many of the rhododendrons are wild species,collected and grown from seed and now in their mature prime. 01765658009, SCOTLANDArduaine GardenNear Oban,Argyll.Open daily from1April. Set on Scotland's west coast amid stunning scenery,this beautiful garden benefits from the influence of the Gulf Stream.Now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland,the historic garden featured over200rhododendrons by the 1920s,which are still spring highlights,as are stands of primula and iris.But the real stars are the stretches of colourful and jaw-droppingly beautiful Himalayan plants. 01852200366,/arduain-garden WALESBodnant GardenNear Colwyn Bay,Clwyd.Open daily. Rightly considered one of the UK's finest gardens,Bodnant springs to life with pools of daffodils in Old Park Meadow,along with national collections of magnolia and rhododendron.Extensive plantings of cherry fill the garden with sweet scent in mid-spring, alongside plentiful bluebells.For these weeks from mid-May,thefamous Laburnum Arch,a long walkway with golden-yellow flowers, alone is worth a

National Trust takes care of two of the four gardens.D.Tourists can call to know more about the four gardens.(C)One question I get a lot is around the topic of professional certifications.People want to know if they're worth it.After all,professional certifications cost hundreds--if not thousands--of dollars.And most require a significant investment of time and energy on top of it.So,do professional certifications actually have a measurable career payoff?The simple answer is this:I am a firm believer in the importance of lifelong learning.The payoffs are not always immediate and they're often difficult to attribute directly to any one particular certification.Many people think of professional certifications as a tool for financial gain.Sometimes,yes, but not necessarily.For example,a recent Office-Team survey of the administrative profession found that employers pay up to8%-more on average in the U.S.for employees who hold the MS Office Specialist certification.That's a pretty clear and significant benefit!But it's important to remember a few things when you hear that.First,MS Office is a very heavily used software suite and people in the administrative field are deeply reliant on it in many organizations.The MS certification is well-known and highly reputable.Possessing it demonstrates expert-level mastery of the skills required to take advantage of systems like Excel,Word,and PowerPoint.It makes sense that employers are willing to pay a bit more for administrative professionals who have already proven their advanced mastery in these areas.However,what they are really paying for is not the certificate itself--it's the value a person can bring to the organization when they have these skills.The certificate just helps the organization identify those people who can deliver greater value,but you also have to show evidence of that value.It's not realistic to think that you can go get a certificate and immediately demand moremoney.You have to use those skills to achieve more,and you have to be a vocal advocate for yourself and your accomplishments.That's how you earn the rewards.It's also not realistic to expect that all certifications will have the same powerful impact.Not all are created equal.Some are not as well-known and some do not teach you the kinds of skills that result in measurable value to the organization.That's not to say that other certifications don't matter.Sometimes,it's not about the organization at all.Some people enjoy the process of certification because it enhances their confidence and allows them to connect with other like-minded professionals.Some people like learning purely for the sake of personal growth.These things might not yield a direct financial benefit,but they are indeed valuable to you and your career.Over time,that will pay off in more concrete ways.You have to first know what you're looking to gain to know whether or not it's worth it,and you have to be insightful in your selection of certification programs.63.Which statements is NOT true about professional certifications?A.Gaining professional certifications requires much money and energy.B.Employers will pay more for employees holding certain certifications.C.They indicate recognition of the mastery of skills for complex systems.D.Certifications help organizations identify people who may bring value.64.The author may probably agree that_________.A.lifelong learning has nothing to do with gaining certificationsB.the investment in gaining certifications will immediately pay offC.certifications help employees employ and advocate their skillsD.people can gain personal growth in the process of certification65.What suggestion does the author put forward in terms of professional certifications?A.Know what you want and choose certification programs carefully.B.Be a lifelong learner and care less about measurable career payoffsC.The MS Office Specialist certification is reliable and worth a try.D.Choose famous certification programs offering long-term gains.66.Which in the following can be the best title?A.Do Certifications Equal Lifelong Learning?B.Do Certifications Guarantee Financial Gain?C.Are Professional Certifications Worth it?D.Be Insightful in Selecting Certification ProgramsSection CDirections:Read the passage carefully.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.Mr Sigaty was also the first to admit there was lots of work to be done to ensure the sportcontinued to grow.B.The popularity of e-sports is surprising.anized competitive gaming has become a billion-dollar industry.D.Even the US government grants professional athlete visas to top e-sports players.E.E-sports doesn't fit neatly into any of the existing definitions of a sport.F.With the launch of video streaming services,e-sports became the mainstream.E-sports:the world's biggest performance you've never heard of Whoever said you're wasting your life away playing video games obviously had no idea how big e-sports were going to get.E-sports has become huge business over the past five years,with professional video gaming tournaments offering more prize money than some of sport's biggest events.(67)_________The League of Legends championship last year was watched by more than27million people when broadcast on ESPN,eclipsing the audiences for last year's baseball World Series(23.5million viewers)and NBA Finals(18million).With big popularity and big money involved these days, more and more people across the world are considering professional gaming as a genuine career.While some gamers have been making a living off their skills since the late1990s,it wasn't until2010's Star-craft II that things really changed.One of the first games built with e-sports squarely as its focus,Star-craft Ii became a true spectator sport.(68)_________"We knew we were building an e-sport and the competitive nature combined with streaming coming into its own really helped catch viewership in Europe and North America."the game's executive producer Chris Sigaty told an Australian news agency.(69)_________In Australia,the biggest challenge is basic facilities.Countries like South Korea and the USA have high-speed broadband that allows competitors to play and practice without the limitations of Australia's relatively slow connection speeds.As more money is brought into the sport,it's hoped traditional media companies and sponsors will invest money to help bring world class facilities to Australia's shores.But even if that does happen--will e-sports be able to truly claim it is a"sport"?Fans argue that e-sports have all the excitement,skill and competition of a basketball game. On top of that,e-sports have teams,star players,sponsors and millions of dedicated fans across the world.(70)_________But e-sports cannot escape the argument that it lacks the athletic aspects of other professional sports.IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following three passages.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.71.Is It Bad to Sleep With Wet Hair?If you shower before bed,you've probably wondered whether sleeping with damp hair is a problem.Maybe you've heard it could make you sick,or that it can damage your hair.What's thetruth?Let's address the"it can make you sick"myth first.This idea seems to fit into the old bit of folklore that getting yourself chilled and wet will cause you to come down with a cold.However, it was long ago disproved.It's true that you're much more likely to catch a common cold during the winter months.But this has to do with viruses.Another wet-hair rumor is the idea that harmful things will colonize your pillow.Some research has shown that pillows can harbor allergy-causing mircoorganisms.They tend to do well in damp environments.Scientifically,there's no evidence that people who sleep with wet hair experience more allergy symptoms.But if you wake up with a stuffy nose,itchy（痒的）or watery eyes,breathing problems or other allergy symptoms,you should wash your pillow cases in hot water at least once a week.When it comes to the health of your hair,generally,it's thought that sleeping with hair wet may damage your hair,leading to breakages and a loss of shine.But it's worth noting that almost anything you do to your hair--from brushing and blow-drying it to coloring it or exposing it to the sun--can damage ing conditioner can help restore it.There may be some mild risks associated with going to bed with wet hair.But of all the health concerns you could worry about,this one shouldn't keep you up at night.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.这名店员自从晋升为经理之后，更加卖力工作了。

2023-2024学年上海位育中学高三上期中试卷Ⅱ.Grammar and VocabularySection A GrammarBehaviour contracts for teenagersThe conflict between you and your son or daughter is a problem,maybe it’s time you thought about setting up a‘home rules contract’.This is an idea that’s being used more and more often, especially in families with rebellious teenage children.We interviewed Dr Amy Barker,a psychologist,who is in favour of the idea.What is a home rules contract?Dr Barker:It’s a formal agreement about the rules of behavior that teenagers____21____(expect)to follow at home.It should state clearly what the rules are,what privileges the teens will get if they obey the rules and what punishments will follow if they don’t. The contract is signed by everyone___2_2____(involve),just like a legal document.Who____23____________write the contract?Dr Barker:All the adults who have a parental role should be engaged.It’s important that they all agree and stick to the rules themselves.At the same time,the teenagers should also contribute their ideas.___2_4____they take part in making the rules,they’ll be more likely to follow them.The final contract should be the result of discussion,____25____(respect)everyone’s point of view,and all the people who have signed should get a copy.What are the advantages of a contract?Dr Barker:It makes it very clear to teens what they are and aren’t allowed____26____(do), and they can see what the consequences of their actions will be.So they learn to control their behaviour.For parents,the contract strengthens their authority and helps them to be fair and reliable.What areas should be covered in a contract?Dr Barker:That depends.You can’t make rules for everything,so you have to decide what’s most important and____27____the main problems mon topics include the hours___28____teenagers ought to be home,the spending money they receive,the housework they need to do at home and their use of phones or networking sites.For older teens,rules about driving a car may also be important.Do contracts solve____29____?Dr Barker:No,of course not!There will always be conflicts and disagreements_____30_____people in a family.But a contract that everyone respects can help to keep the peace.Section BDirections:Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.maximizeB.subsequentC.potentialD.personalizeE.misrepresentedF.limitedG.marketingH.predictivemercialJ.speedK.absenceNo child or young athlete should be subjected to genetic testing to find sporting talent or improve performance,conclude the experts in a statement published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.The scientific evidence on the effectiveness of these__31__tests is simply far too weak to back their use,says the experts in the fields of genomics,exercise,sports performance,etc.While the science of genomics has advanced rapidly over the past decade,the ability to interpret the meaning of genetic test results is still at a relatively early stage.But that has not stopped the growth of the"direct to consumer"genetic tests,which claim to be able to spot children's athletic talents or tailor training to__32__performance.This fast-growing market has caused fears that the still limited level of knowledge on the genetics of sports performance is being__33__for commercial gain.To inform the statement,the panel looked at the availability of DIY genetic tests.It found39 companies__34__tests associated with sport or exercise performance or injury--almost twice as many as in2018.The claims included:"__35__your training based on your sports genetics,""Give parents and coaches early information on their child's genetic__36__for success for sports,"and"We use your DNA results to help you lose fat,build muscle,get fitter."But the__37__of any good scientific data to guide selection of which variants to test weakens the value of multiple testing.Besides,while there is some evidence to suggest a link with enhanced physical performance,it is very weak,making the__38__value of these tests"actually zero,"says the statement.The statement emphasizes the__39__of change in gene sequencing technology has got much faster than regulation.And it points out the importance of counselling before any genetic test is taken."While further evidence will undoubtedly emerge around the genetics of sport performance in the future,the data are currently very__40__.Therefore,in this stage of limited knowledge,no child or young athlete should be exposed to genetic testing to define or alter training or for talent identification aimed at selecting gifted children or adolescents,"it concludes.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Climate experts have warned about the many ways a warming planet can negatively affect human health.___41____global temperatures are predicted to increase by1.4℃by the2040s, that risk is becoming increasingly real.One long-held prediction that appears to be coming true—according to the results of a study recently published in Nature Scientific Reports—is how climate change might enhance ____42____of bacteria that thrive and spread through warm sea waters and cause an infection with a particularly high____43____rate.Vibrio vulnificus(创伤弧菌)flourishes in salty or brackish waters above68℉.Infections are currently rare in the U.S.,but that’s likely to

infections as waters become warmer.“We’re seeing the core____44____of infections extending to areas that traditionally have very few and very rare cases,”says Elizabeth Archer,a Ph.D.researcher and____46____author of the study.“But these areas are now coming into the main area of infections.”Based on the latest data on how much the world’s water and air temperatures will rise,the scientists predict that by2081,Vibrio vulnificus infections could reach every state along the U.S. East Coast.Currently,only about80cases are reported in the U.S.each year;by2081,that could go up to over three-fold,the authors say.Such a proliferation could have serious health consequences.Vibrio vulnificus kills approximately20%of the healthy people it infects,and40%of those with weakened immune systems.There is little evidence that antibiotics can____47____the infection,but doctors may prescribe them in some cases.People can get infected either by eating raw shellfish like oysters or by exposing small____48____to waters where the bacteria live,which can lead to serious skin infections.Warming sea temperatures aren’t the only reasons behind the rise of Vibrio vulnificus.Hotter air also draws more people to the coasts and bays,bringing them into closer contact with the bacteria.“The bacteria are part of the natural marine environment,so I don’t think we can____49____ it from the environment,”says Archer.“It’s more about mitigating infections by increasing ___50____of the risk.”To alert people to the growing threat,___51____systems are needed to track when concentrations of bacteria start to rise,similar to currently available pollen and pollution alarm.Vbrio vulnificus is so___52____to temperature changes that concentrations could bloom after even a day of warmer

followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)At14,Fraser Doherty was busy making jam after his grandparents taught him a family recipe. He started selling jars of his jam door to door near his parents’home in Edinburgh.As interest grew,his hobby stated to turn into a business.He now makes40,000jars of jam a month and is well on his way to making his first million.Doherty,who has been chosen to represent Britain in the Global Students Entrepreneurs Awards in Chicago next month,said there are several advantages to having started young:“As a young person you have a different view of the world.You have a naivety and an optimism and are willing to give things a shot.The downside for me isn’t particularly scary.I don’t have a mortgageor kids to worry about so I didn’t have a huge amount to lose if my idea had not worked.”Duncan Cheatle,founder of The Supper Club,a forum for established entrepreneurs in London,agreed that becoming an entrepreneur at a young age has a lot to recommend it.“For young people there is no concept of thinking outside the box because there isn’t a box. There is capacity in young people to see things in a different way that older people lose.And often not being an expert in something can be helpful because if you don’t understand why something works in a certain way you will decide to do it differently.”Emma Jones,founder of Enterprise Nation,the home business website,said that young people were much more confident about using technology as a base for their business than the older generation.“Whole sectors that didn’t exist ten years ago are coming up now because young entrepreneurs are challenging all previous rules and saying technology means that we can do things like this.They have an open capacity to think of new ideas and as a result they are starting very interesting businesses.”56.According to Doherty,is the competitive edge of young people starting business compared with the older generation?A.ignorance of the realityB.naïve pursuit of a hobbyC.readiness to try things outD.parents shouldering the financial burden57.The underlined sentence in Paragraph4means young people.A.are reluctant to obey the existing rulesB.are not bound by established ways of doing thingsC.have superior ideas to those of the older generationD.will not fall into traps that old people set up for them58.Which of the following statements will Emma Jones most likely agree with?A.Abandoning all previous rules is a must to establish new sectors.B.As people grow older,they are less able to take a fresh approach.C.Those lacking confidence are less able to start creative businesses.D.The use of technology contributes to the creation of new businesses.59.The purpose of this passage is to.rm readers of success stories of young entrepreneursB.introduce opinions on the advantages of being young entrepreneursC.convince young people to follow the trend and start their own businessesD.provide specific guidance on how to become successful young entrepreneurs(B)How to make a resume?1.Format your text.The first thing that a possible employer will see on your resume is the text.For that reasons, it is very important that you make the right first impression.Choose a professional font in size11or12.Times New Roman is the classic serif font（衬现字体）,while Arial and Calibria are two of the better choices for sans-serif（无衬线字体）.Even though sans serif fonts are more popular for resume,Yahoo cites Helvetica as the best font to use for your resume.●Many individuals find that Times New Roman is a little hard to read on a screen.If you areemailing your resume,consider using Georgia instead for a more readable serif font.●You can use multiple fonts for different parts of your resume,but try to limit it to two.Insteadof changing between fonts,try emboldening or italicizing specific selections of text instead.●The font size for your header and the introduction to a section may14or16,but otherwise,you should choose11or12.●Your text should always be printed in solid black ink.Make sure to deactivate any hyperlinks(like to your email,address,and phone number)so that they don't print in blue or another non-black color.2.Set up the page.Your page should have one-inch margins all the way around with1.5or2point line spacing. The body of your resume will be aligned to the left and your header should be centered at the top of your page.3.Create your heading.This is the section at the top of your resume which gives your contact information including your name,address,email,and phone number.Your name should be in a slightly larger size-either14or16point font.List your home and cell phone numbers.4.Decide on a layout.There are three general formats for creating a resume:chronological,functional,or combination.Your work history and the type of job you are applying for will determine the layout style you should use.●Chronological resumes are used for showing a steady growth in a particular career field.These are best used for someone applying for a job within their career-path to show an increase of responsibility over time.●Functional resumes are focused on skills and experience rather than job history.There arebest used for someone who may have holes in their work history or who have gained experience from being self-employed for a time.●Combination resumes are,as it sounds,a combination of both a chronological and afunctional resume.These are used to show off specific skills and how they were acquired.If you have developed a specific skill set from working in a variety of related fields,then this is the best resume option for you.60.Which font does the author suggest considering the readability of the resume when checked online?A.Georgia.B.Times New Roman.C.Calibri.D.Helvetica.61.What is the closest explanation of the word"chronological"?A.arranged according to how important each item isB.arranged according to when things happened or were madeC.be specific and concrete in the introduction of somethingD.state various items in a detailed and separate way62.Which statement is true according to the passage?A.The more colorful your resume is,the more appealing it will be.B.There is no need to tell employers where you obtain your specific skills.C.Your name should be a little bit larger in size,aligned to the left.D.Blue or other strange colors will appear on your printed resume if hyperlinks are activated.(C)Thanks to in-depth reporting by the Wall Street Journal,we now know that Facebook has long been aware its product Instagram has harmful effects on the mental health of many adolescent users.Young girls,in particular,struggle with their body image thanks to a constant stream of photos and videos showing beautiful bodies that users don't think they can attain.While the information the Journal covered is essential and instructive,it does not tell the whole story.Deep down,this is not an Instagram problem;it's a people problem.Understanding that distinction can make the difference between a failed attempt to contain a teen's interest in an addictive app and successfully addressing the underlying problem leading to mental distress induced（诱发）by Instagram.Critics were quick to shame Facebook for sitting on the data and not releasing it to researchers or academics who asked for it.Others criticize the social media giant for not using the research to create a safer experience for its teen users.The anger,while understandable,is misplaced.While I'm reluctant to defend Facebook,I'm not sure it's reasonable to blame the company for withholding data that would hurt its business.Have you ever binge-watched（狂看）a Netflix series?I assure you it wasn't a healthy endeavor.You were in active,likely did nothing productive, mindlessly snacked and didn't go outside for fresh air.It is an objectively harmful use of time to stare at a TV or laptop for a full weekend.Should we respond by shaming Netflix for not alerting us to how damaging an addictive product can be?While it's reasonable to say Instagram makes esteem issues worse,it strains credulity（夸张到难以置信）to believe it causes them in the first place.You create your own experiences on social media.For the most part,you choose which accounts to follow and engage.If you're already vulnerable to insecurities and self-sabotage（自损）--as many teens are--you will find accounts to obsess over.And this isn't a new phenomenon.Before social media,there were similar issues fueling self-esteem issues.Whether the target be magazines,movies or television shows depicting difficult-to-attain bodies,there has been a relatively steady chorus（异口同声）of experts nothing the damage new media could cause young viewers.Self-esteem issues have an underlying cause--one that's independent of social media use. Instagram merely enhances those feelings because it provides infinitely more access to triggers than older forms of media.It's more worthwhile to address those underlying factors rather than to attack Facebook.63.The author thinks the criticisms against Instagram_________.A.are successful attempts to change teens'interest in addictive appsB.address the Instagram-induced mental painC.are only based on the data released by FacebookD.are not directed at the fundamental problemflix is mentioned to_________.pare the criticisms against it and FacebookB.defend why Facebook is to blameC.suggest the critics'remarks are not to pointD.show Netflix does more harm to teens65.The Instagram problem is essentially a"people problem"in that_________.A.it is human nature to get addicted to social mediaers decide on their experiences on social mediaC.people have a tendency to feel insecure onlineD.people are keen on fabricating their self-profile66.What is the passage mainly about?A.the unprecedented criticism facing FacebookB.the alarming online habits of teenagers worldwideC.the root cause of Instagram-induced mental strainsD.the harmful impact of Instagram on teenagersSection CDirections:Read the passage carefully.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.If you are a gout sufferer,you are not alone.B.No one knows what's behind the phenomenon.C.Nor is it any longer exclusive to rich white men.D.The foot is red and swollen,pounding like a heart.E.We might dismiss gout as a ghost from a fable,which it was.F.The tubercular's hollow cheeks were considered desirable look for women.Gout（痛风）:The Disease of KingsGout,once the disease of geniuses,conquerors and kings,now is affecting the masses.But comes at night,first as a fevered dream,then pain in darkness,the body turned rude animals(67) ___________So strong is the sensitivity of this swollen big ton that the faintest footstep of a sympathetic visitor is a gunshot straight to the nerve.It will not help,at such as moment,to recallthat Alexander the Great,Leonardo da Vinci,Isaac Newton reportedly suffered.(68)___________In the words of the17th-century French poet,Gout falls onto a poor man and then,horrified by her host's ceaseless labor,did nothing in a building.Surely it's a time of a less enlightened,more hierarchical（等级制的）age.We can laugh at from the safe distance of the present day.But the American critic Susan Sontag warned us against illness as myth.Gout is not a punishment,certainly not an embarrassment and,it is highly curable,if good treatment is followed. And the disease has not been limited to the past.(69)___________From the1960s to the1990s, the number of sufferers doubled in the United States,and that's continued to rise.It is tempting to see gout as an annoying angel and come to punish greed.Mentioning the romantic aspect of tuberculosis（肺结核）in the19th century,Sontag argued that gout was contrary to tubercular.The gout-ridden were guilty of eating too much,while those dying of tubercular were themselves consumed from the inside.During that period,turning thinner from tubercular was taken as a sign of elegance,with poets considered unreliable if they weighed more than a hundred pounds,and so"it became rude to eat heartily".Sontag also highlighted a strange social phenomenon.(70)___________Great men"grew fat,wrote novels and conquered continents."IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following three passages.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.71.MindfulnessMindfulness typically refers to a state of in-the-moment awareness in which one avoids judging the thoughts and emotions of himself and others.It is often practiced in meditation（冥想）and some forms of therapy.Numerous findings from psychological research suggest practicing mindfulness can lead to many benefits,including stress reduction and increased psychological well-being.For example,in a study of cancer patients,cultivating mindfulness through meditation or other mindfulness-based training enabled people to be more selective about their emotional experiences,enabling them to reduce their stress and anxiety while increasing positive emotions.Similarly,studies show that mindfulness can also enhance information processing speed while reducing effort and negative thoughts and the meditators significantly outperformed the non-meditators on all measures of attention,suggestion that mindfulness improves one's ability to focus.It is apparent that mindfulness has many noteworthy benefits,which include everything,from psychological to physical improvements.However,research has also shown that in some cases mindfulness can also lead to negative outcomes.For example,one study found that following mindfulness meditation,participants were more likely to form take memories,demonstrating a potential unintended downside to mindfulness.In addition,another study suggested mindfulness researchers needed to be careful that they didn't learn participants by bringing about unpleasantmental,physical,or spiritual reactions through mindfulness.For example,mindfulness meditation may result in severe anxiety for those diagnosed with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD)（创伤后应激障碍）.Those with PTSD tend to avoid thoughts and feelings related to their trauma. However,mindfulness meditation encourages emotional openness,which could lead individuals with PTSD to experience the stressors that they previously avoided,potentially leading to re-traumatization.It can't be denied that mindfulness is an important tool in the managerial toolbox,but it is not a cure-all,and it must be applied thoughtfully to be effective.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.艺术品应该以人们能够承受的价格面向更多的人出售。

I always felt judged, real or not.As I get older, and obviously wiser, it doesn't get to me as much. There are some benefits of being short. I find airplane seats spacious. I am good at hide and seek. I rarely bump my head.Would I still want to be taller? Of course. But I wouldn't be me. I am me because I'm short. And Ilike who I am.It's such a part of me that I cheer on fellow short people. Lionel Messi is the greatest soccer player of all time (and even he gets mocked) Bruno Mars may be the original short king. Small victories.I don't remember when I became okay with being short. But at some point, like I have done my entire life, things started looking up.4．What did the writer's father advise him to do to, deal with height-related jokes?A．Ignore them and stay silent.B．Joke first to manage situations.C．Respond with calm and peace.D．Seek help from family and friends.5．Why did the writer dislike in-person job interview s before?A．He thought they'd waste too much time.B．He used to avoid the real challenges.C．He minded other interviewees' comments.D．He worried about being judged by his height.6．How does the writer like his height now?A．He accepts it readily.B．It has made him smart.C．It still poses challenges.D．He thinks he's tall enough.7．Why are Lionel Messi and Bruno Mars mentioned in paragraph 5?A．To convey admiration for their achievements.B．To show how short people handle their height.C．To demonstrate short people can achieve success.D．To introduce challenges short people may face.阅读理解The topic of China's"slash youth"has fueled heated debate on social media recently, drawing attention to the diverse pursuits of the younger generation.The slash youth, which could also be called slashers or slash-generation means those who refuse to be defined or bound by just one personal identity. They are keen to present themselves as multiple and sometimes distinct identities, such as a nurse and model, a teacher and stand-up comedian, and an engineer and band player. Rather than material comforts, they pursue meaningful achievements.A study on "slash youth"published in the China Youth Research magazine analyzes the background of this phenomenon: with part of modern society's structured organization and stability norms are broken, flexible labor markets and structural unemployment has emerged, eliminating the sense of job security of the young people in employment. Young people also face the dilemma of self-actualization, including the sense of powerlessness, lost sense of value and lack of self-identity in the profession.. which forces them to re-find the meaning of work."The‘slash life'shows that our society is becoming more and more diversified and inclusive,and it welcomes everyone's self fulfillment," said Shi Yanrong, an associate researcher fromTianjin Academy of Social Sciences. The researcher added that against the background that people have multiple interests and are willing to pay for these interests nowadays, the"slash life"of the youth would drive the growth of a new economy, just as animation culture affected the market.8．Which is true about the. slash youth?A．Tending to pursue meaningful achievements.B．Enjoying posting themselves on social media.C．Adjusting themselves to challenges in life.D．Refusing to undertake multiple careers.9．What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A．The significance of flexible labor markets.B．Reasons for the appearance of slash youth.C．Young people's interest in their profession.D．Causes of losing power among the youth.10．What does Shi Yanrong think of the slash life?A．It can gain people's independence.B．It inspires young people's creativity.C．It can pick up an economic growth.D．It enables young people to earn high.11．What is the purpose of the text?A．To provide latest career guidance.B．To introduce a social phenomenon.C．To analyze a new cultural difference.D．To highlight a unique life experience.阅读理解A study published in the journal Nature Geoscience last week revealed soil samples collected by China's Chang'e-5 lunar probe contained impact glass beads(珠子) that held water in the form of hydroxyl(氢), a molecule consisting of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom. Hydroxyl ion is one of the most common ions found in water.These glass beads are created when meteoroids(流星体) hit the moon's surface, throwing up hot molten droplets which then cool and turn solid. They function like a sponge, soaking up hydrogen atoms carried by the solar wind to form hydroxyl, thus playing a key role in the water cycle of the lunar surface.While each be ad only holds a tiny amount of water, these glass balls are so ubiquitous on the moon researchers estimated lunar soils could store as much as 270 billion metric tons of water. For decades, scientists thought the moon was bone dry until discoveries in recent years revealed its soil could hold water."The moon potentially holding 270 billion metric tons of water is quite substantial, though it pales in comparison to the amount of water in the Earth's oceans," said Hu Sen, a researcher from the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.These findings not only provide insight on the origins, storage, and transportation of water on celestial(天空的)bodies without atmospheres, but they also may prove helpful for planning and building a sustainable human habitat on these planets, he added.12．What do glass beads on the moon's surface function?A．As a sponge taking in hydrogen atoms.B．As meteoroids hitting the moon's surface.C．As hydroxyl beneath the lunar surface.D．As a source of energy for water cycle.13．What does the underlined word"ubiquitous"mean in paragraph.3?A．Rare.B．Common.C．Obvious.D．Energetic.14．What could be the potential sources of water on the lunar surface?A．Water from Earth.B．Water from the sun.C．Water from the stars.D．Water from meteoroids.15．What's the best title of this passage?A．The Key Role of Hydroxyl in LunarB．New Discoveries based on Moon'sC．Glass Beads Found on Moon's SurfaceD．Scientists Discover Water Reservoir二、第一部分阅读理解，第二节任务型阅读(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
