But not all schools are fashion deserts. Colorful sports shoes, school bags, T-shirts and even drink containers are breathing life into campuses."The uniform makes us look like a bunch of clones, especially when we are doing morning exercises on the playground," said Qing Pei, a Senior 2 from Shanghai Qibao High School. "But the boys wear different sports shoes and girls have different decorations in their hair. These are the areas where you can express yourself," said Qing.Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school, especially shoes, according to Qing. "Nike and Adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must-have items for many of my friends, are becoming out-of-date," Qing added. He explained that "Since some famous athletes like Liu Xiang,Subingtian etc. ran so fast in running competitions, running shoes are becoming popular these years. ""Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with random English words printed on them," said Qing. "The accuracy of the written message is not important. Often, the words are not spelt correctly. Sometimes they do not even make sense, "Qing said with a smile.Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colors of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion. Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls.Other fashionable items are the colorful drink containers which are now popular among girls this term."Some teachers are surprised to see a teenager sucking a bottle like this atschool and criticize it as a childish regression (退化). But some girls just love it," said Yang Rui, a Senior 3. from High School attached to Xi’an Jiaotong University.4.Which is NOT the way girls show their personality in school?A.They wear different sports shoes and T-shirts.B.They take stylish and colorful school bags.C.They have different decorations in their hair.D.They always bring special drinks with them.5.According to Qing Pei, what can be inferred on why students dislike wearing uniforms in school?A.They ma y look similar to each other so that they can’t show their own personalitiesB.They want to become fashionable and be a film star in the future.C.The uniforms are of bad quality and can’t keep warm in Autumn and winter.D.They were forbidden to wear other clothes by their parents.6.What does the underlined word “make sense” in paragraph 5 mean ______.A.misunderstand somethingB.have reasonable meaningsC.have some special feelingsD.be suitable for teenagers to wear7.Which conclusion of the following is WRONG?A.Students also like to follow fashion trends.B.Students nowadays like to be more individual.C.Teachers in school think students behavior are absolutely understandable .D.Students don’t care much whether the words printed on caps or T-shirts are right or not.CCan you imagine what 680,000 tons of food look like? That's the amount of food wasted in Britain in the year 2024 to 2024, and at the top of the list of wasted food is bread. In the British diet, bread appears in every meal. It is eaten for breakfast, used for sandwiches for lunch and put in soups at dinner. Almost everyone in Britain buys bread.Bread is so important to the British that they use the word “bread” to mean “money” and the word “loaf”to mean “head”. So let's use our “loaves” to understand why so much “bread” is wasted!Even though bread is still sold in such a popular way and in such a large amount, that doesn't mean it's made full use of. It seems people are simply buying much more than they need, so they throw away the bread that they don't need. Baker Chris Young explains that the British aren't valuing their bread because bread is no longer respected. “None of the bread that is thrown away is ‘real’ bread—homemade or carefully made bread, but is bought from thebread shop.”Another baker Mark Boyle agrees. “If you make something by yourself, you don't want to waste it because you know how much energy you've put into it. But although home baking is a nice idea, for many it's out of their ability because they have to work such long hours every day that they don't have time to make bread by themselves at home. So they simply buy bread and just bring it home to eat.”Perhaps the British should try to bake bread by themselves, which can probably make their dustbins lighter.8.What can we infer from the passage?A.Bread plays an important part in British diet.B.Different British people like different foods.C.Bread will become less popular in Britain.D.Bread is the favorite food for the British.9.If a British boss says to his workers “Please bring your loaves here,” he ________.A.wants his workers to eat healthilyB.advises his workers to buy more breadC.asks his workers to work more cleverlyD.promises to give his workers more money10.Mark Boyle believes that the British throw away much bread mainly because ________.A.they are tired of eating breadB.they are too rich to value breadC.they don't like the taste of breadD.they don't put any energy into making bread11.Many British people fail to make bread by themselves at home because ________.A.they are very busyB.they don't earn much moneyC.they become lazier than beforeD.they don't know how to bake breadDTablets are useful devices, but their big screens always make them as a burden to carry around without a bag. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a phone with the powers of a tablet that could be folded up and fit neatly into the hand? Now something like a tablet-shaped but foldable（可折叠的） phone is about to become available. In February, Samsung and Huawei both introduced foldable phones, the Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X separately, to the public for the first time. Mobile phone use has entered the “foldable future”, the Verge noted.The technology could change our lives in significant ways. These devices, due to their bendable screens, give us the larger screens we want but still fit easily into the pocket. The technology could change other devices too. For example, we could make TVs that stick to walls like posters, or fold up easily to hide away in drawers, which could help increase available space to the maximum. In a keynote address, Justin Denison, Samsung’s senior vice president, called the foldable screen “the basisfor the smartphone of tomorrow”. “It’s a blank canvas (画布) for us to do something beautiful together,” he said.So is there nothing to stand in the way of the foldable future? According to tech news website Android Authority, the necessary displays were difficult to produce. In 2012, nine out of ten foldable screens produced were defective or unusable. Today, that 10 percent rate has been improved to almost 90 percent. However, at present these foldable devices are expensive. For example, the price of Huawei Mate X is 17, 500 RMB. That's a price that few people will be able to afford.But if the foldable device isn’t going to change the world overnight, there is no doubt that it is coming. Patrick Moorhea d, an industry expert told The Verge, “Few are debating if foldable mobile displays are the future of smartphones; the only question is when and by whom.”12. What do we know about foldable devices?A. They are too big to fit into the pocket.B. They could bring us much convenience.C. They have become available in January.D. They are a burden to carry around without a bag.13. What can we learn from Denison’s words?A. The foldable screen has great potential.B. The technology could change other devices too.C. There must be many problems with the technology.D. The production of foldable phones will soon decrease.14. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean?A. criticalB. negativeC. imperfectD. abnormal15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Types of foldable phones.B. The coming of foldable devices.C. Popular devices on the market.D. Difficulties in producing foldable phones.二、七选五依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

江苏省南通市区2024-2025学年高二10月月考英语试卷

江苏省南通市区2024-2025学年高二10月月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Looking to inspire curious young minds? These are some of the best popular science books for children, which should keep the young minds full of ideas long into the future.Amazing JellyfishThis book includes plenty of impressive facts. The first-person style of the author helps to keep the attention of young readers, by including personal stories and avoiding all pages of words. Each part is divided into detailed drawings and valuable information. The book has fun jokes about jellyfish, a maze (迷宫) with sea trash, and more.A Brief History of StuffDK has chosen a mix of many different things for this unique book. From baby bottles to pens, there isn’t much of a logical (合乎逻辑的) path or timeline, making it a great book for kids of all ages. Seeing a list of everyday items such as a pot or a fridge, you realize how little you know about the stories behind them. This book has all the information you need about their beginnings and impact on society.A Kid’s Guide to the Night SkyThe night sky is filled with countless astronomical objects to explore and this book does its best to introduce a wide variety of them to children. The life cycle of stars and light pollution are just a few of the topics that the book introduces to its audience. It also takes a deep div e into each of the solar system’s planets and some of the amazing technology that’s working to find out more about them.Radar (雷达) and the RaftThe story of radar, along with the inventors and contributing scientists, comes together in this book about the technology’s development and lifesaving uses. By connecting the story of the Bell family’s near-death experience at sea with the story of radar’s discovery, the author has produced an interesting and informative storyline.1．What is a main feature of Amazing Jellyfish?A．Using a strictly scientific style.B．Presenting a clear timeline of events.C．Focusing on fun games about sea life.D．Matching the text and the picture well. 2．How do readers probably perceive A Brief History of Steff?A．A collection of famous speeches.B．An introduction to historical heroes.C．A guide to exploring common objects.D．A handbook on starting interest clubs. 3．Which book best suits young enthusiasts for astronomy?A．Amazing Jellyfish.B．Radar and the Raft.C．A Brief History of Stuff.D．A Kid’s Guide to the Night Sky.How would you feel if your child were being tutored by a robot? It’s believed that social robots could become as common as paper and whiteboards in schools. Those robots have been used to read stories to preschool students in Singapore, help 12-year-olds in Iran learn English and improve handwriting among young children in Switzerland.As a professor of education, I study the different ways that teachers worldwide do their jobs. To understand how social robots could affect teaching, I introduced a robot called “Pepper” into a public elementary and middle school in the U. S. and found many problems with the current generation of social robots.To get the robot to perform, our students had to master the directions that came with the robot. Some students quickly figured out that the robot could respond only to certain basic routines. They kept trying to interact with the robot as if it were a person but got very frustrated with its nonhuman responses. When a robot failed to answer a question, or responded in the wrong way, students realized the robot wasn’t really understanding them and that the robot’s dialogue was preprogrammed.Also, I have found that these are not limited to school settings. Service robots in some health care facilities have been programmed to deliver medicine, but this requires special sensors and programming. Stores and restaurants are experimenting with delivery and cleaning robots. But when a grocery store in Scotland tried to use “Pepper” for customer interactions, the robot was fired after a week.While the social robots currently used in schools are limited in functions, they can still provide useful learning experiences. Students can use them to learn more about robotics and artificial intelligence. Struggling with a robot’s limitations gives students real insights into thecomplicated nature of human social interaction. The opportunity to do hands-on work with a social robot shows students how difficult it is to program robots to copy human behavior. As AI becomes a bigger part of our work and lives, we need to teach students to think critically about what it means to live and work with social machines.4．What phenomenon is described at the beginning of the text?A．The global differences in educational approachesB．The transformative impact of robots on education.C．The adoption of social robots in classrooms worldwide.D．The innovative achievements in science and technology.5．How do students find their interaction with social robots?A．Amusing and engagıng.B．Challenging but beneficial.C．Ineffective and disappointing.D．Satisfying but time-consuming.6．What does the author want to show by mentioning the examples in paragraph 4?A．Robotics still has room for improvement.B．Technology has changed the way we workC．Many fields are open to experimenting with robots.D．Robots might pose a threat to people’s employment.7．What can students learn by interacting with limited-function social robots in schools?A．To master communication skills.B．To get some hands-on experience.C．To strengthen the sense of mission.D．To improve critical thinking ability.For many of us, online shopping has made the process of purchasing goods a far simpler and more convenient process. No longer do we have to head to shops to browse through various objects, wandering round endless shelves, before finally setting for the first thing we saw. These days, we find the item we want or need online, click on it, and check out its description and, most importantly, its user reviews. If it fits the bill, we send it to our basket and pay.There seems to be a wealth of options at our fingertips. But how do we know the options that pop up in front of us really are the best deals, and how might algorithms (算法) help or hold us back?Algorithms, simply put, are mathematical instructions which tell a computer how to solveproblems. When shopping is involved, what is the problem they solve? Well, they instruct a computer which advertisements to show and which products a user is most likely to buy. By analyzing the things we bought or looked at previously algorithms can predict what goods we’re most likely to be attracted by.For some people, the idea of something guessing your preferences could sound a bit worrying. But first, let’s look at the positives. By telling a computer to show us what we are interested in, it can not only save us a lot of time, but also help us find the best deals. However, there are some people who have concerns about the impact of algorithms on our shopping experience. It is possible that algorithms may only select options from a limited number of brands, or may favour products from certain companies. There are also concerns that we aren’t always shown the cheapest or best deal, even though that’s what we’re searching for.So, the takeaway from this is that algorithms are here to stay, and it’s wise to know they exist. Whenever you are shopping, be it online or off, make sure you shop around for the best deals. The first thing you see might not always be the best for you.8．What is the main factor that leads you to buy the product online immediately?A．The reasonable price.B．Salesgirls’ description.C．Customers’ comments.D．The convenient delivery.9．How do algorithms help customers find their favourite goods?A．The previous consuming records.B．The most advertisements they see.C．The frequency of visiting the store.D．The amount of money they spend. 10．What does the author think of algorithms used for online shopping?A．Doubtful.B．Beneficial.C．Negative.D．Worrying. 11．Which message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A．Many hands make light work.B．Actions speak louder than words.C．Only the feet tell if the shoes fit.D．Only comparing can see the gap.At a park in one of the world’s most polluted cities, a filtration (过滤) “tower” has been quietly cleaning the surrounding air since last summer. Called Verto, the device filters 600,000 cubic meters of air a day in New Delhi’s Sunder Nursery.Filtration towers were designed by architecture firm Studio Symbiosis. The firm’sco-founders, Amit Gupta and Britta Knobel Gupta, say their fan-powered devices can clean the air within a radius (半径) of 200 to 500 meters in some spaces, depending on wind speed and how open the surroundings are. “I think the towers can also be installed in public parks and squares, where people spend quality outdoor time,” Britta said, adding that installing (安装) the towers in spots where homeless people sleep might also be very beneficial.In 2019 alone, air pollution is thought to have caused nearly 1.6 million deaths in India, according to a study in medical journal The Lancet. New Delhi is regularly covered with smog, with vehicle emissions, crop-burning, and coal-fired power plants all contributing to the city’s bad air quality.In addition to the direct impact of pollution, the resulting climate change has caused heat waves that have killed more than 24,000 people in the country since 1992, according to a study published by the University of Cambridge.Amit estimated that maybe 100 of the towers would be required to filter the air across central New Delhi, though further research and a “full-scale model” would be required to calculate more figures. The devices are also designed to be easily transported, with the hope that they can be adopted on a larger scale.The filters, which need to be changed every three to nine months, are partly recyclable. Noise generated by the towers is, at a maximum of 75 decibels, similar to that of a standard kitchen exhaust fan (排风扇). To reduce Verto’s environmental impact, Studio Symbıosis installed energy-efficient smart fans that vary according to local conditions, slowing down when pollution is low, or when strong winds provide natural air flow.12．Which factor can improve the work efficiency of filtration tower?A．The height of tower.B．The surrounding people.C．The design of fans.D．The strength of wind.13．What is mainly discussed in Paragraphs 3 and 4?A．The death number in India since 1992.B．The consequence of climate change.C．The cause and effect of air pollution.D．The process of heat wave generation. 14．What is the striking feature of Verto?A．Cost-effective.B．Uniquely-designed.C．Eco-friendly.D．Completely-recycled15．What is the best title for the text?A．The air cleaning tower in India B．The bad air quality in New DelhiC．The filtration tower’s global trend D．Smart fans’ environmental purposeAppreciating art can be a rewarding experience. But it can also be confusing if you’re not sure where to start. Here are a few tips to help you get the most out of your art appreciation journey.One of the most important things to remember when looking at art is to approach it with an open mind. 16 Instead, allow yourself to experience the art work on its own terms and see what emotions or thoughts it awakens in you.When you first encounter a piece of art, take a few moments to look at it. Notice the colors, lines, shapes, and materials. 17 If you’re looking at a painting, try to identify the brushwork and how it contributes to the artistic effect of the piece.18 Thinking about the situation in which a piece was created can help you better understand and appreciate the work. For example, if you’re looking at a piece of art from the 19th century, it can be helpful to learn about the artistic movements and social issues that were common at the time.The medium in which a piece of art is created can have a significant impact on the final product. 19 Understanding the properties and limitations of different mediums can help you appreciate the technical skills and choices of the artist.If you’re looking at art in a museum or gallery, there may be a staff member available to answer your questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for more information. If you’re looking at art online or in a book, try to find out more about the work through research. 20A．Many works of art convey a deeper meaning.B．You can also turn to a professional about the subject.C．Try not to assume what the artist was trying to express.D．The key to appreciating art is to approach it with curiosity.E．Observe how the various elements of the artwork are arranged.F．Art is often created within a specific historical, or cultural context.G．A sculpture made of metal has a different feel from an oil painting.二、完形填空The town of North Rustico is a homey sort of place. Neighbors there are always sure to 21 one another as they go about their day. And that 22 of friendliness is apparently infectious.One day, local resident Lisa Sandoval was walking near the waterfront when she realized somebody was 23 to her. “I heard ‘Hello! Hello!’” Sandoval said. “I turned around and there wasn’t even a 24 . Then I heard the 25 again. I got a little 26 , and thought I must be hearing things.”It was then that Sandoval noticed only a crow (乌鸦) nearby. “I stopped and said, ‘Hello?’”27 , he answered me back, “Hello!”Sandoval later came to learn that she wasn’t the only one in town to have 28 the talking crow. The story goes that years earlier the bird had been found injured as a baby and 29 by an elderly man living nearby, who often spoke to him during his 30 . “That bird had learned to say hello and had been let go free after regaining his health,” Sandoval said. A few months after their 31 meeting, Sandoval ran into the talking crow again.Crows, much like parrots, are indeed 32 of learning to mimic human language. So, if the story of his 33 is true, his vocalizations (说出的话) may very well 34 the voice of the elderly man who’d saved him. “He passed away years ago,” Sandoval said, but his legacy (遗产) 35 in the friendly, feathered bird. 21．A．understand B．greet C．attract D．remember 22．A．chance B．principle C．sense D．demand 23．A．pointing B．speaking C．responding D．appealing 24．A．soul B．signal C．choice D．change 25．A．answer B．rhythm C．warning D．voice 26．A．confused B．bored C．messy D．guilty 27．A．Gradually B．Carelessly C．Incredibly D．Accidentally 28．A．attended B．adopted C．encountered D．expected 29．A．introduced B．nursed C．grabbed D．accepted30．A．residence B．flight C．absence D．recovery 31．A．initial B．regular C．casual D．private 32．A．aware B．proud C．capable D．ignorant 33．A．origin B．talent C．injury D．departure 34．A．raise B．reflect C．protect D．replace 35．A．sets off B．gives up C．backs down D．lives on三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Remember at all times to keep your back straight. Put your hand under the thing that is in front of you, between y our knees.To lift the thing, you should stand up slowly.

This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—— the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But ourneed for water is becoming larger and larger quickly —— almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world wide water shortage (缺少 ) later on.We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most l arge cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道 ). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places.But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.16.The world is thirsty for water because.A. man hasn't got enough food to eatB. we haven't got enough fresh waterC. only 70% of the earth's surface is waterD. more water is sent into sewer systems17.The underlined word valuable means.A. much and saltyB.fresh and enoughC. dear and usefulD. clean and helpful18.What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water?(a)Make full use of the sea water.(b)Carry salt water into lakes or rivers.(c)Try to save the fresh water as much as possible.(d)Do our best to use the water again.(e)Drink and use all the water on the earth's surface.A.(c)and(e)B.(a)and(d)C.(a),(c)and(d)D.(b),(d)and(e)19.The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决 ) the water problem of theworld is to.A. remove the salt from sea waterB.make the water in cities cleanC. take water from undergroundD.make the need for water smaller20.What's the best title (标题 ) for this passage?A. The Importance of the WaterB. The World's Water ProblemC. The Thirsty WorldD.

高二一月月考(英语)试题含答案

高二一月月考（英语）（考试总分：120 分）一、阅读理解（本题共计3小题，总分25分）1.（7.5分）As a marathon runner and regular gym fan, physical fitness was my life. All that changed in May 1997 when I survived a near-deadly car accident. After several weeks in unconsciousness, I woke up with a raspy(沙哑的) voice and no balance. I had to relearn how to sit, stand, walk and move about. Seven years of physical treatment later, I began walking on my own, though slowly and haltingly(跛). I keep a walker around for when I need to move quickly.During all these years of recovery, I remained a gym fan. As I watched the personal trainers working with their customers, I knew I was as fit as they were. So I decided this would be my new purpose. I started studying for the personal training certification exam immediately. Once I did, my health club immediately hired me.However, if you don’t obtain customers, you don’t work. Who was going to choose me with a health club full of able-bodied trainers? A medical consultant suggested I teach group exercise classes in senior homes. Over time, I’ve been able to add more classes, such as balance exercises. Balance work is so important for older people. And for me too! Now the exercises I teach are helping me as much as they do my class. The years as a physical treatment patient have given me lots of cues to use as I teach my classes.A personal trainer —on a walker? It’s not something you see every day. While my students aren’t athletes or body builders, working with seniors gives me an audience that appreciates what I have overcome through regular exercise. I’m able to encourage them beyond what they thought they could do. No longer do my disabilities embarrass me or make me feel ashamed. They have led me to a new purpose in life: inspiring and encouraging thoseI serve.21. What new career would the author take up?A. A gym athlete.B. A marathon runner.C. A physical fitness instructor.D. A physical treatment consultant.22. What inspired the author to work again?A. His audience.B. Others’advice.C. His disabilities.D. The love for gym.23. Why did the author serve the old people?A. He was also a senior with disabilities.B. He couldn’t obtain young customers.C. He had much experience in the senior health.D. He was not as professional as the other personal trainers.2.（10分）As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆).”According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories: that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.24. The passage begins with two questions to _________.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author’s attitudeC. describe how to use the InternetD. explain how to store information25. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to understand the information.D. The second group did not understand the information.26. In transactive memory, people _________.A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD.remember how to find the information27. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.3.（7.5分）From July to October every year, about a quarter of the world’s blue whales feed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. But the whales currently face a major threat in their favorite feeding area. Ships carrying cargo (货物）sail in the same area at the same time. All too often, the whales’ paths and the ships’ travel lines overlap (重叠), and a ship will hit a whale.According to a new study, these ship strikes have become a serious threat to the overall population of the world’s blue whales. Only about 10,000 of the creatures still exist worldwide. Blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on Earth. Even so, if hit by a container ship, a blue whale will likely die from its injuries.In 2007 alone, large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says that because there are so few whales already, losing three to five from the California whale population every year is a significant loss. “The estimated population of blue whalesin this part of the Pacific is 2,500”, says Sean Hastings, a NOAA analyst. “So every whale counts toward this species moving off the endangered-species list.”Now, marine scientists must figure out how to protect the whales from the giant container ships. One very simple program is already under way in the Santa Barbara Channel, a waterway that separates mainland California from the nearby Channel Islands.The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to voluntarily slow down. Sailing slower will allow the ships crew (船员）more time to change course before hitting a whale.Several of the world’s largest shipping lines are set to participate in the new program. For every ship that passes through the Santa Barbara Channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots (海里/小时）, the company that owns the ship will be paid $2,500.28. From Paragraph 1, we can know that_____.A. people intend to illegally hunt blue whales for moneyB. large ships often carrying goods may pollute the seaC. the container ships may hit the blue whales frequentlyD. there is fewer fish in blue whales favorite feeding area29. According to Sean Hastings, it’s inferred that .A. the number of the blue whales is decreasing sharply.B. the blue whales are still on the endangered-species list.C. most of the world’s blue whales live in the Pacific Ocean.D. blue whales are often disturbed by other endangered creatures.30. What are the last three paragraphs mainly about?A. The basic responsibility of a sailor.B. Measures to protect the blue whales.C. The world’s largest shipping lines.D. Ways to slow down the speed of the ships.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）4.（10分）How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. 31. _______ Yes, evenstudents of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here are some tips for you:1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. 32._______ It’s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have enough time for both work and play.2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.3. 33._______ Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. 34._______ Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about.

Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide more than grades. 35. _______A. Be volunteer to raise questions.B. Make good use of your time in class.C. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.D. Those who make the best of their time study with more ease.E. They also let you know what you need to spend more time studying on.F. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule.G. This is not necessary the case, however.

湖南省长沙市长郡中学2024-2025学年高三上学期月考试卷（一）英语试卷一、阅读理解As Pakistan and China are marking 2023 as a Year of Tourism, Pakistan’s breathtaking natural beauty, diverse cultural heritage and historical landmarks are all set to catch the attentionof tourists.Balochistan: Nature’s Bounty UnveiledStretching across vast expanses, Balochistan is Pakistan’s largest province, boasting not only abundant mineral resources but unique natural beauty. Its mountain ranges, mines and extensive coastal belt, which is home to the prosperous Gwadar Port, attract adventurers.Punjab: A Tapestry of History and HeritageIn the heart of Pakistan lies Punjab province, a land of green agricultural fields, intricate (交错的) river networks, ancient forts and charming Mughal-era gardens. Over two millennia (千年) ago, the Gandhara Buddhist civilization thrived in northern Pakistan, with Taxil a serving as its primary center of learning.Sindh: A Tapestry of History and CultureSindh, in Pakistan’s southern region, weaves together a tale of history and natural beauty. Itis home to the ancient city of Mohenjo-Daro, a relic of the Indus Valley Civilization, along with the modern city of Karachi and its picturesque coastline.Northern Pakistan: Nature’s MasterpieceSpread over 72,496 square kilometers, Pakistan’s northern regions are a masterpiece of nature. Among towering peaks, including numerous summits over 8,000 meters, peaceful valleys like Gilgit, Hunza and Skardu offer a brief escape.As Pakistan invites the world to explore its diverse and fascinating landscapes, it also extends a warm invitation to discovery the history, spirituality and natural wonders that define this remarkable nation.1．As a Buddhist, your favorite destination in Pakistan might be __________.A．Balochistan B．Punjab C．Sindh D．Gilgit2．What do the four parts have in common?A．Natural beauty.B．Historical origin.C．Cultural relics.D．Diverse resources.3．The passage serves as a(n) __________.A．guidance B．introduction C．commercial D．noticeThere comes a time when the old must give way to the new, and it is not possible to preserve everything from our past as we move towards the future. Finding and keeping the right balance between progress and the protection of cultural sites can be a big challenge.Big challenges, however, can sometimes lead to great solutions. In the 1950s, the Egyptian government wanted to build a new dam across the Nile in order to control floods, produce electricity, and supply water to more farmers in the area. But the proposal led to protests. Water from the dam would likely damage a number of temples and destroy cultural relics that were an important part of Egypt’s cultural heritage. After listening to different voices, the government turned to the United Nations for help in 1959.A committee was established to limit damage to the Egyptian buildings and prevent the loss of cultural relics. The group asked for contributions from different departments and raised funds within the international community. Experts investigated the issue, conducted several tests, and then made a proposal for how the buildings could be saved. Finally, a document was signed, and the work began in 1960.The project brought together governments and environmentalists from around the world. Temples and other cultural sites were taken down piece by piece, and then moved and put back together again in a place where they were safe from the water. In 1961, German engineers moved the first temple. Over the next 20 years, thousands of engineers and workers rescue d 22 temples and countless cultural relics. Fifty countries donated nearly $80 million to the project. When the project ended in 1980, it was considered a great success. Not only had the countries found a path to the future that did not run over the relics of the past, but they had also learnt that it was possible for countries to work together to build a better tomorrow.The spirit of the Aswan Dam project is still alive today. If a problem seems too difficult for a single nation, the global community can sometimes provide a solution.4．What was the major concern regarding the construction of the new dam?A．The damage to local farms.B．The high cost of the construction.C．The disapproval of local communities.D．The potential harm to cultural remains.5．How were the cultural sites rescued?A．By rebuilding similar cultural sites.B．By building fences around them.C．By taking them down into pieces.D．By removing and piecing them together again.6．Which of the following best describes the Aswan Dam project?A．International cooperation is not necessary for large-scale projects.B．It is possible to achieve progress without sacrificing cultural heritage.C．The opinions of experts should be ignored in favor of popular opinion.D．Countries should always prioritize their own interests over global concerns.7．What is the key to the success of the Aswan Dam project?A．Trial and error.B．Adequate investment.C．Global cooperation.D．Careful investigation.Since the last ice age, humans have cleared nearly half of the earth’s forests and grasslands for agriculture. With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland.A recent study from the University of California, however, shows how farmers may soon harvest crops and energy together. One researcher, Majdi Abou Najm, explains that visible light spectrum (光谱) can be separated into blue and red light waves, and their photons (光子) have different properties. Blue ones have higher energy than red ones. While that gives blue light what is needed to generate power, it also results in higher temperatures. “From a plant angle, redphotons are the efficient ones,” says Abou Najm. “They don’t make the plant feel hot.”A goal of the study is to create a new generation of solar panels. He sees potential in the organic solar cells, which come from carbon-based materials. Thin and transparent, the cells are applied like a film onto various surfaces. This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below. These panels could also provide shade for heat-sensitive fruits during the hottest part of the day.By 2050, we’ll have two billion more people, and we’ll need more food and more energy. By maximizing the solar spectrum, “we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,” says Abou Najm. “If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.”8．What problem does the first paragraph focus on?A．Losing cropland to solar panels.B．Distribution of the world population.C．Reduction in forests and grasslands.D．Competing for land between farmers.9．What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?A．Generation of solar power.B．Hot weather increasing efficiency.C．Blue photons having higher energy.D．Separation of visible light spectrum.10．What do we know about the organic solar cells?A．They make fruits heat-sensitive.B．They can cool down in hot days,C．They allow red light to pass through.D．They can store carbon-based materials.11．What does Abou Najm think of the future of the new solar panels?A．Limited.B．Promising.C．Uncertain.D．Challenging.While Industry 5.0 is believed to have started in 2020, the rise of AI in recent years has led experts to say it is now coming. Imagine AI-powered robots that see, hear, touch and more, pooling fresh data from across those groups of sensors to create that data with the vast ranges of digital data stored elsewhere online. The age is a major leap from the First Industrial Revolution, when steam engine started to achieve widespread commercial use.Professor John Nosta says, “The integration of sensory capabilities into AI models is not merely a technological leap. It represents a shift in our philosophical understanding of artificial and human intelligence.”He has also referred to the new era as “the Cognitive (认知) Age,” which will completely change how humans live, work, and think about themselves. According to Nosta, humans don’t typically think of computers as “experiencing” the world themselves. But that assumption will be challenged as more advanced AI systems are hooked up to ever more and ever greater sensors. The machines won’t just be logic boxes that humans input data and commands for processing. The AI will collect that data more and more on its own, experiencing the world for itself.“This is not just about understanding words, but also about grasping the tone, pitch (音高), and emphasis, which add layers of meaning often absent in written text. Image recognition adds another layer of complexity,” he added. “For example, it can analyze photographs, identify objects, and even understand the emotional content of facial expressions.”The Johannesburg-based business school is just one of many college-level programs attempting to investigate and teach its students about the still-emerging IR 5.0. Seton Hall in New Jersey offers a three-credit course on this latest age in human technology and trade; MIT has brought in guest speakers to lecture on the concept, and many other research institutions are following suit.12．Where does IR 5.0 differ from previous industrial revolution?A．It processes data and commands.B．It interacts with humans through texts.C．It enhances human sensory capabilities.D．It employs more senses in its application. 13．Why is IR 5. 0 called the Cognitive age?A．AI collects and interprets data itself.B．AI turns written texts into voice.C．AI understands written language well.D．AI has an ability of expressing emotions 14．How do some colleges address IR 5.0?A．By offering related courses.B．By expecting more industrial revolution.C．By applying AI to the technological trade.D．By preparing for the rapid economic changes.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Al Is Approaching Us Gradually B．A New IR Is About Machine LearningC．AI Has Developed Its Own Senses D．We Are Entering IR 5.0 NowPursue Y our Dreams Today, Not TomorrowHave you caught yourself daydreaming about your dreams? We often postpone our dreams, trapped in a cycle of delay. But why wait? 16 You don’t have to take a huge, life-changing step. You can take minute steps toward a brighter future. And start right now.17 If you never try, you’re going to be weighed down by your regrets. You’re always going to wonder how your life would’ve turned out if you actually took a chance on yourself. Don’t let your future self be disappointed by your present self.It doesn’t matter how old you are or how many people have warned you that you’re never going to succeed. Even the most successful people have had their hesitations about whether they had what it took to make it in their field. 18 Embrace a mindset of determination, knowing that success is within your reach.At the end of the day, you need to carve out a path for yourself that will lead to the most satisfaction. If you allow your fear to get the best of you, you’re never going to forgive yourself.19 . It’s what you would encourage your friends to do, so why aren’t you giving yourself that same push?Sometimes, following your passion means spending a lot of your time each day. It may require making slight adjustments to your schedule, but you don’t have to sacrifice everything to follow your hearts. Try to strike a balance between your current life and your dreams. 20 Pursue your dreams now, even though that means you might need to break out of your comfort zone, and even though it means entering the unknown.A．Ask yourself what would be worse.B．Starting small is completely acceptable.C．You owe it to yourself to go after your dreams.D．New opportunities may lead to personal growth.E．If things go well, you can gradually make further shifts.F．You need to move past your insecurities and explore your full potential.G．Hard as it is, it’s crucial to wave off the doubts in the back of your mind.二、完形填空As a first-generation Asian immigrant(移民)who had grown up in poverty, I knew I was beyond 21 to be admitted into Harvard.

月考试卷语文

一、阅读（60分）（一）阅读下文，完成第1-7题。

（19分）烂漫花事曹积三①寒冷的冬季，我最心仪的花是菊花。

父亲在世时，每年冬天，我家都要养菊。

父亲是养菊的高手。

他不是让那枝干肆意滋长，花儿随意开放，而是巧有设计。

在一根粗壮的主干上，养出三条斜枝，又让每一枝上生发三杈，这就是他的一干三枝九杈的菊花。

为了让每一杈上，只开一朵硕大的花，他会小心翼翼，极为精细地剔除多余的花苞，留下一个壮实的花骨朵。

如此这般，每棵菊，正好开出九朵花来。

他笑说：“这菊呀，到了数九天开花，花瓣才能更厚实，味道才能闻着香。

”不知道他使的是什么招法，能控制花期，让花进了“九”，才次第开放。

②父亲侍弄月季，也有一套绝技。

花，不仅这茬落了那茬开；而且朵大花香。

他利用嫁接的方法，能让一棵月季开出两种颜色的花朵，颇为神奇。

我曾蹲在花前，傻傻地观看那些花，从花朵，到花枝、花叶、花的筋脉，瞧得入了迷，竟鬼使神差般地拿笔描画它们，开始用铅笔，继之用钢笔，随后用毛笔……我半辈子对丹青的喜爱，就始于对月季花的痴迷。

③花开总有花落时，父亲和母亲总是把那落在地上的月季花瓣捡拾起来，积攒着，送给邻居姐姐和嫂子们。

母亲说，这花瓣，是能治妇科病的。

④父亲一年四季都种花，所以我家的院子里花香不断。

春天，最早绽开花瓣的是又香又艳的红芍药和紫芍药，接着，是枝头缀着一串串粉色小荷包的荷包花。

到了夏天，龙头花、大烟花、胭粉豆儿、“不等高”、三劈莲、芨芨草……缤纷如霞，灿烂满眼。

秋天里，鸡冠花、熟薏花、扫帚梅和西粉莲……开得更是热闹一片。

⑤有趣的是，那缀满红花的芨芨草，花还没落，就结了籽儿。

那籽儿，像个微型的橄榄，用手轻轻一捏，便会裂开几瓣儿。

每一瓣儿，会弓成一个环，女孩子将它夹在耳垂上，颇像大人佩戴的绿耳环。

将芨芨草花捣碎，用矾和了，还可以染红指甲，是爱臭美的女孩子们最喜欢的玩意儿。

⑥父亲告诉我，芨芨草有个大用场。

在香瓜地里，种上它，那瓜秧上就不会生害虫。

可我当时没有追问个中缘由，至今，后悔莫及。

It was a pretty usual question.Simon shook his head, smiling He hardly listened or tried hard in class. Talking was so much fun. He wanted to be heard rather than listen.“Listen, and you'll learn something.” Mrs. Jacobs tried every day, but Simon never paid attention.That evening, his throat really hurt. The next morning, when he opened his mouth to say “Good morning”, nothing came out but a croak.Simon's mother looked at him. “Honey, you've lost your voice.”“Can I stay home?” He tried to ask, but words didn't come out. Instead, his mother checked him for a fever and decided it was good for him to go to school, even if he couldn't talk.When he got to school, Mrs. Jacobs said “Hello” to him, and he just nodded. When his friends asked him what TV shows he watched last night, he just shrugged. By the time the bell rang for class, almost everyone was looking at him as if he'd grown a third eye.Penny raised her hand. “Mrs. Jacobs, why isn't Simon talking?”“He never stops talking.” Richard said worriedly.Everyone started talking at once. They were excited, worried, and surprised.Simon sat in class bored. He watched them talk to each other as if the teacher wasn't there, but he couldn't even do that.

He looked around, but seemed really out of it. Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the light. This was really strange. Cait didn't know what to do. Just then, Cait's father appeared and explained Doug was sleepwalking.Not all seep is the same every night. We experience some deep, quiet sleep and some active sleep, which is when dreams happen. You might think sleepwalking would happen during active sleep but a person isn't physically active during active sleep. It usually happens in the first few hours of sleep in the period called deep sleep.The truth is that not all sleepwalkers walk. Some simply sit up or stand in bed or act like they're awake when, in fact, they're asleep! Most, however, do get up and walk around for a few seconds or for as long as half an hour.Sleepwalkers' eyes are open, but they don't see the same way they do when they're awake They tend to go back to bed on their own and won’t remember it in the morning.You also might have heard that sleepwalkers can get frightened if you wake them up. That's true, so what do you do if you see someone sleepwalking? You should call for a grown-up who can lead the person back to bed. And once the sleepwalker is tucked back in bed, it's time for you to get some sleep, too!1. What does “out of it” most probably mean in Chinese?A. 茫然不觉B. 心满意足C. 垂头丧气D. 悠然自得2. When does sleepwalking usually happen?A. During active seep.B. In the first few hours of sleep.C. When dreams begin.D. When we're trying to fall asleep.3. What should we do if we see people sleepwalking?A. Wake them up.B. Walk around with them.C. Do nothing and get your own seep.D. Ask grown-ups to lead them to bed.4. Who is the text written for?A. Teachers.B. Doctors.C. Parents.D. Children.4.（8分）Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork—everything from taking tests to researching a paper. But unfortunately, most schools don’t have classes that teach you how to take notes. So here are some tips.Write down key facts. If you have a teacher who writes notes on the board, that’s good: You can copy them down. If not, write down the most important points from class. Does your history teacher mention the date of a key Civil War battle? Does your English teacher give examples of Shakespeare’s use of irony(讽刺)? Write them down!Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may mention lots of dates and facts in class but only write the key ones on the board. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat a certain date or a piece of information. After a while, you’ll get to know a teacher’s style.Don’t overdo it. Don’t go crazy taking notes. You’ll be frantic(慌乱的) if you try to write down every word that’s said in class. And if you focus too much on getting your notes right, you might miss important points. Some people actually learn better by listening, writing down a few key points, and then going over the material after class.Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask the teacher to repeat something you miss. If the teacher is going too fast, your classmates will also be happy to hear the information again. If you don’t want to ask in class, see your teacher afterwards. It’s much easier than wondering if you got the notes right as you study.Compare. Keep your notes handy when you’re doing your reading homework. Compare what you wrote with what the reading says—you may even want to add to your notes as you read.1. What’s an advantage of note-taking according to the writer?A. It helps you to get good marks in tests.B. It’s a basic skill in researching a paper.C. It helps fix your mind on what the teacher says.D. It gives you a better understanding of key facts.2. Why is Shakespeare mentioned in the passage?A. To introduce the topic of note-taking.B. To compare writing styles in different times.C. To give an example of forming good habits.D. To explain what a key fact is in a teacher’s class.3. What is suggested in the third paragraph?A. Teachers encourage their students to be active in class.B. It’s helpful for teachers to learn from each other in styles.C. It’s not always possible to note down all information in class.D. A teacher’s style should be taken into consideration when taking notes.4. What’s the writer’s opinion according to the passage?A. Students must try to take correct and detailed notes in class.B. Students should put down only key points while listening carefully.C. Students must not interrupt the teacher by asking questions in class.D. Students should put down as much information as possible in class.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（10分）How to prepare for an exam is a big question that you always ask yourself. Here are some tips that may help you.Never fear or hate an exam and be confident.Some students study well but still may be much afraid of exams and due to this reason they get upset and won’t be able to get marks. 1.You have to be confident and it is of great help for you to gain success.Prepare a good timetable.Prepare a timetable before starting the study. 2Difficult subjects can be given more time and easier ones less, but most importantly you should spare some time for rest.Choose a proper atmosphere(氛围) for studying.Studying atmosphere plays a very important role. 3So pick a place where you feel comfortable. That is where you feel relaxed and can pay attention to what you are doing. Make sure that while you are studying a subject you are focusing on it only. So keep the books of other subjects away from your eyesight so that you won’t be upset about all the things you have to learn.Make notes while studying.This is a very important point. While studying,make small notes. The note should be short and clear to make the review easier. 4Yet don’t try to cover everything in it.5On the night before an exam you have to sleep well,at least 6 hours and not more than 8 hours. Remember this will have a great effect on your exam.And have your food as in your daily diet.A.Sleep well and eat well.B.So try to present answers in points.C.This should include all the subjects.D.Can anyone study well while others around are watching TV?E.A good note shall include the most important points.F.This will be of great use to your coming exams.G.So leave all your fears and free your mind before starting the study.三、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）6.（30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白的最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

山西省忻州市2024-2025学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题

山西省忻州市2024-2025学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解La Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Bunol close to Valencia in Spain. It is claimed to be the biggest food fight in the world.What Happens at La TomatinaAt around 11 am, many trucks carry more than one hundred tons of over- ripe tomatoes into the centre of the town, Plaza del Pueblo. Technically the festival does not begin until one brave soul has climbed to the top of a two-story-high wooden pole and reached the ham at the top. In practice this process takes a long time and the festival starts despite no one reaching the prize. The signal for the beginning of the fight is the firing of a water gun. After one hour the fighting ends and the cleaning process begins.The Rules of La TomatinaDo not bring bottles or hard objects as they can cause accidents and hurt other participants;Do not tear other people’s T-shirts;You must squeeze (捏碎) the tomatoes before throwing them;As soon as you hear the second shot of the water gun, you must stop throwing tomatoes.Useful AdviceWear old shoes and clothes that you do not mind throwing away afterwards. They will most likely end up damaged or incredibly dirty;Don’t wear slippers. You may get hurt, or you could lose them easily during the battle;If you are not from Bunol, and you want to stay overnight, don’t forget to look for and secure accommodation in advance.Stay safe and enjoy the festivities as much as possible!1．What can we learn about La Tomatina?A．It is an annual event.B．It takes place in Valencia.C．It lasts for a whole day.D．It hands out hams as prizes.2．Which of the following signals the beginning of the fight in practice?A．The arrival of the tomatoes.B．The takedown of the ham.C．The firing of a water gun.D．The set up of the wooden pole.3．What should participants avoid doing during the fight?A．Touching each other.B．Taking soft objects with them.C．Wearing shoes and T- shirts.D．Throwing unsqueezed tomatoes.This is my fourth mission to space, my second to the International Space Station (ISS), and I’ve been here for three weeks now. I’m getting better at knowing where I am when I first wake up.My bedroom is just big enough for me and my sleeping bag, two laptops, some clothes, photos of my wife and daughters, a few books. Getting dressed is a little bit difficult when I can’t “sit” or “stand”, but I’ve gotten used to it. The most challenging thing is putting on my socks. It’s not a challenge to figure out what to wear, since I wear the same thing every day. However, without gravity to help me bend over, it is very difficult to pull my legs up to my chest.At present, we have three Americans living at the station: Samantha, Terry and me. Samantha is one of the few women to have served as a fighter pilot in the Italian Air Force, and she is competent in everything technical. She is also friendly and quick to laugh. She is especially gifted for language. She has native-level fluency in English and Russian (the two official languages of the ISS) as well as French, German, and her native Italian. She is also working on learning Chinese.For some people who hope to fly in space, language can be a challenge. We all have to be able to speak a second language (I’ve been studying Russian for years), but the European and Japanese astronauts have the added burden of learning two languages if they don’t already speak English or Russian.Terry was a test pilot before joining NASA．He has all the positive qualities of a leader — optimism, enthusiasm, friendliness — and none of the negative ones. I’ve found him to be consistently competent, and I appreciate that as a leader he is a consensus builder rather than a bossy commander. Since I’ve been up here, he has always been respectful of my previous experience, always open to suggestions about how to do things better rather than getting defensive or competitive.4．Why does the author find it challenging to put on his socks at the ISS?A．He has too many choices.B．It is uneasy to pull his legs up.C．The bedroom is too small.D．He can’t find a chair to sit on. 5．Samantha has left the deepest impression on the author probably because of her _______.A．good humor B．technical skillsC．language talent D．loud laughing6．What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A．Speaking English or Russian is a must for the ISS astronauts.B．All the ISS astronauts have to be able to speak three languages.C．European and Japanese astronauts are not good at communication.D．There are language workshops on the International Space Station.7．Which of the following can best describe Terry?A．He is competitive and defensive.B．He is a perfect leader.C．He is the most experienced man at the ISS.D．He is just a little bit bossy.On September 9, 2024, Apple released its latest iPhone 16 series at an event called “It’s Glowtime”. At the event, Tim Cook, the company’s CEO, played up the promise of the phones’ AI features in a pre-recorded video.Indeed, the demonstration seemed impressive. When Cook pointed the camera at a restaurant, the AI assistant Siri could tell him what was on the menu. It also could answer his questions fairly well and learn about the users from their interactions with their devices. For instance, Siri could know if a user’s mother was calling and acted appropriately.Apple is one of many firms that want to take AI beyond huge data centres, known as the cloud, and run it on smaller devices, known as the edge. Samsung, Apple’s major competitor, launched its Galaxy S24 with some AI features earlier this year. So did Microsoft, which has launched Windows PCs designed for AI. But their efforts have shown that it is not easy to shift cloud-based AI models to the edge devices.At present, cloud-based AI models are mostly trained on graphics processing units (GPUs) that consume so much energy that it can take a nuclear-power plant to fuel them. They also need huge amounts of memory and data. All these can cost hundreds of millions of dollars. Even once they are trained, running these AI models is costly. According to one estimate, it costs OpenAI, themaker of ChatGPT, 36 cents every time someone asks its AI model a question.Companies are experimenting with various solutions to these problems. Apple will offer on-device AI to deal with the easiest tasks, but send trickier problems to the firm’s private cloud. The service will direct the most difficult requests to third-party models such as ChatGPT. But even such smaller on-device AI models require a lot of computing power to run, which puts huge stress on the edge devices’ batteries.“Making the technology work could not only start a supercycle in device sales, but also create new opportunities for apps and digital advertising,” says Neil Shah of Counterpoint, a research firm. “But for the moment, edge devices are barely ready for basic functions, let alone Glowtime.”8．What is the second paragraph mainly about?A．The Glowtime event.B．iPhone 16’s AI features.C．Tim Cook’s performance.D．The future of AI phones.9．Why are Samsung and Microsoft mentioned in the text?A．To tell readers how bad competition can be.B．To warn Apple of the potential consequences.C．To compare their newly released edge devices.D．To show how hard it is to apply AI to edge devices.10．What is the problem with cloud-based AI models?A．OpenAI charges too much money.B．All of them have to be trained on GPUs.C．It is too expensive to train and run them.D．They can only deal with the easiest tasks.11．What does Neil Shah most probably imply?A．iPhone 16 is bound to disappoint its users.B．AI phones’ success will depend on new apps.C．Sales of AI phones will increase greatly soon.D．Tim Cook was not honest with the AI features.The Greek philosopher Heraclitus taught that you can’t step into the same river twice, foryou aren’t the same person at each visit, and the water is ever flowing. It is a powerful way to represent the reality that everything is always changing.Yet so many of us have difficulty adapting to change. We deny it, resist it or attempt to control it, the result of which is almost always some combination of stress, anxiety and burnout.It doesn’t have to be that way. No doubt, change can, and often does, hurt. But with the right mind- set, it can also be a force for growth. It’s not as if we have any choice in the matter. Like it or not, life is change. We’d be wise to shift our position from useless resistance to being in conversation with change instead.A concept called allostasis can help. Developed in the late 1980s by Peter Sterling and Joseph Eyer, allostasis is defined as “stability through change”. In other words, the way to stay stable through the process of change is by changing, at least to some extent.From neuroscience to pain science and psychology, allostasis has become the standard model for understanding change in the scientific community. The brain is at its best when it is constantly making new connections. Overcoming pain, be it physical or psychological, is not about resistance (which often worsens the experience) or trying to get back to where you were before a distressing event or situation. It’s about balancing acceptance with problem-solving and moving forward to a new normal.Yet this concept is still little known to ordinary people and it is time to start practicing it now. Over the past few years, the river of change has been flowing mercilessly, and it shows no signs of letting up. Hardly a decade after the widespread adoption of social media, a new technology that may be far more powerful, artificial intelligence, is being widely used.It’s like what our friend Heraclitus advised: Take part in change by focusing on what we can control and trying to let go of what we can’t.

They listen to each other. They read each other’s emotions. However, they tend to hide their true feelings in their late teenage because society expects them to be tough. 17 .Don’t blame yourself. You are a product of a society that expects very particular things of masculinity. So stop blaming yourself. 18 . If you accept your own desire for close relationship in your life, you will find the friendship.Get involved at tough moments. Boys sometimes are worried whether they might appear too curious about their friends’ private matters. 19 . But if you get involved at such moments, you will open the door to all kinds of growth in your relationship. So take the opportunity to show them that they matter by following up.20 . Researchers say that the No.1 thing that helps children(especially boys)grow up to have enriching friendships is to be close with adult relatives who are not afraid to express their emotions.

He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford to buy any more chocolate.It all began a year ago when Albert Hall returned home one evening and found a large dog in front of his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its paws (爪子) and received another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend "Bingo". He never found out the dog's real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he liked chocolate more than bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large piece a day. If at any time Albert couldn't give it, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the gate.

"Out to the hoghouse（猪舍）," replied Mrs. Arable. "Some pigs were born last night.""I don't see why he needs an ax," continued Fern, who was only eight."Well," said her mother," one of the pigs is a runt.（发育不全的）. It's very small and weak, so your father has decided to do away with it.""Do away with it?" shrieked(尖叫) Fern. "You mean kill it? Just because it's smaller than the others?""Don't yell, Fern!"she said. "Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway."Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. Soon she caught up with her father."Please don't kill it!" she cried. "It's unfair."Mr. Arable stopped walking."Fern," he said gently, "you will have to learn to control yourself.""Control myself?" yelled Fern. "This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself." Tears ran down her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father's hand."Fern," said Mr. Arable, "I know more about raising a litter of pigs than you do. It makes trouble. Now run along!""But it's unfair," cried Fern. "The pig couldn't help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?"Mr. Arable smiled. "Certainly not," he said, looking down at his daughter with love. "But this is different. A little girl is one thing, a little runty pig is another.""I see no difference," replied Fern, still hanging on to the ax.

A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on (信赖) a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with.A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience (经验) and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默), too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!( ) 65. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A. Understanding.B. Honesty.C. Reliability.D. A sense of humor.( ) 66. If you have fair weather friends, ______.A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends( ) 67.. Good friends need to ______.A. always point out each other's mistakesB. be helped with moneyC. understand each other's feelingsD. have money or luck.( ) 68. This passage mainly discuss ______ .A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friend( ) 69. What does the underlined phrase “in short” mean?A. 缺点B. 优点C. 简言之D. 尤其重要的是。

So they were able to change its weight(重量).It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying some bags of sand.After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 metres, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they climbed to get away from the snow.

A scientific statement published by the AHA in the medical journal Circulation said screen time from smart phones, tablet computers and other devices can lead kids to a sedentary(惯于久坐不动的) lifestyle ,increasing the possibility that they grow up as overweight or obese(肥胖的).The AHA is the latest organization urging parents to limit how much time their kids spend in front of screens. It recommends children get one to two hours of screen time each day. Although television viewing among children and teens has dropped, the use of smart phones and tablet computers has surged.“Although the mechanisms(机制) linking screen time to obesity are not entirely clear, there are real concerns that screens influence eating behaviors, mainly because children don’t notice when they are full when eating in front of a screen,” said Tracie Barnett, a researcher at the INRS-Institute Armand-Frappier Research Centre, in a statement.Barnett, one of the authors of the statement, also urges parents to keep screens out of kids’ bedrooms, raising the fear that too much screen time can affect sleep.Many studies have warned about the potential (潜在的) negative effects of too much screen time. Last year, a study from researchers at San Diego State University(SDSU) found nearly half of teens who spent five or more hours in front of screens every day experienced long periods of hopelessness or sadness.Apple, who makes the iOS mobile platform, plans to introduce new tools to devices to help users cut back on screen time. As for iOS 12,iPhones will include a screen time feature where users can control and review how they spend time on their mobile devices. Another company that makes the Android platform will introduce “digital well-being” tools such as screen time limits and a “wind down” (逐渐关闭) option to encourage users to put down their phones before bed.1. Which can replace the underlined word “surged” in paragraph 2?A. Increased suddenlyB. Decreased slowly.C. Stayed the same.D. Lost the balance.2. How do screens influence children’s eating behavior?A. By changing the time they eat.B. By changing their taste for food.C. By influencing how fast they eat.D. By influencing their feeling of fullness.3. What effect did too much screen time have in SDSU’ s study?A. It affected children’s sleep.B. It led to children’s obesity.C. It resulted in diet problems.D. It negatively influenced moods.4. What will Apple do to deal with the screen time problem?A. Reduce its products’ battery life.B. Provide a screen time feature.C. Introduce “digital well-being” tools.D. Add a “wind down” option to its products.5. What is the text type of the passage?A. Narration（记叙文）B. Argumentative Essay.（议论文）C. Expository Writing. (说明文)D. Practical Writing.二、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）2.（30分）Jason, our son, was born with cerebral palsy (脑瘫).

An old farmer was driving his horses to the barn (牲口棚) when he heard a voice saying, “Excuse me, sir. May I sleep in your barn tonight?” It was from a young soldier called Jack. Quietly standing there, tired and cold, he was waiting for an answer. But the old farmer said rudely, “No, I don’t want anybody like you to stay in my barn. You had better go away.”Jack sadly turned away, wondering where he would go next. Suddenly he felt a light tap on his shoulder. It was the young boy who had been working for the old farmer. The boy said, “I know where you can get help. Just go down this road to the first little cabin you come to. There lives Mrs. Smith, who is very kind and is always willing to help those who need it.” Oh, what warmth filled Jack’s heart, “Thank you very much!” There was at least somebody who cared about him. He quickly reached the cabin and gently knocked on the door. The door opened and the lady inside said, “Good evening. Were you looking for me?”Jack answered, “Are you Mrs. S mith? I was told that you might offer a place to a homeless poor soldier for a night’s stay.” She said, “Sure! Do come in! You look as though you are nearly frozen.” Mrs. Smith shared her simple meal with Jack in the warm room.

Produced by Mango TV, the show invites female celebrities (名人), mostly over the age of 30, to stage performances that challenge showbiz (娱乐界) age stereotypes in China.Jonathan says that her foray (初次尝试) into Chinese reality shows is driven by her love of Chinese culture and wish to“ show a possible bridge between French and Chinese cultures”.“I haven’t participated in reality shows back in France,” she says. “I accepted this invitation because it is a huge challenge, and because I want to learn more Chinese and learn to sing in Chinese.”Jonathan’s parents both have a love of Chinese culture, and her mother runs a travel agency that began promoting tours to China in the 1990s. She visited China with her mother for the first time when she was 10 and has since formed a lasting bond with the country.As a child, Johnathan was given her first scooter and guitar in Beijing. As she grew up, she was attracted to Chinese philosophies like Taoism and Confucianism. Since her first album (专辑) was released in 2010, she has translated several songs into Chinese and has returned to Chinaregularly to perform.Jonathan already had a sizable following among Chinese students of French before the show, but broader Chinese audiences have since been pleased with her performance.“France and China have a lot in common,” she says, remarking on the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic (外交的) relations between China and France. “The 60-year friendship between China and France is just the beginning for a new wave of mutual (相互的) learning.”4．What do we know about Ride the Wind 2024 music competition?A．It is open to participants of different genders.B．It focuses on celebrities under the age of 30.C．It refuses showbiz age stereotypes.D．It is unpopular with Chinese audiences.5．Why did Jonathan decide to take part in the Chinese reality shows?A．She is curious about China since she hasn’t been China before.B．She is addicted to Chinese philosophies like Taoism and Confucianism.C．She has participated in reality shows back in France.D．She wants to build a bridge between French and Chinese cultures.6．What can be inferred(推断)about Joyce Jonathan?A．Her parents have little interest in Chinese culture.B．She wins more popularity in China after the show.C．She got a bad impression of China when she was 10.D．She had her first-time performance in China in 2024.7．What is Jonathan’s attitude towards relations between China and France?A．Positive.B．Doubtful.C．Unclear.D．Negative.A casual walk along the Beijing Central Axis, connecting the Drum Tower and the impressive Forbidden City — this was Zhao’s first city-walking journey in the spring of last year. Since then, the 21-year-old student from Beijing Foreign Studies University has remained a city-walk fan, believing it to be the best way to “rediscover a city”.“I visited Beijing before the start of my college life here, and it was a typical package tourduring which going to scenic spots and taking photos was a big thing. The crowded tourist attractions gave me the impression that Beijing was a noisy place,” Zhao said.With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every part of the city in a more immersive (沉浸式的) way.Compared with tightly scheduled routes (路线) and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free, casual and spontaneous (自发的) experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms.On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with 72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks increased 30-fold from the previous year. “The route offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the culture and landscape in different historical stages, as well as its beautiful natural scenery,” it said.Following his experience in Beijing, Zhao has also explored Wuhan in Hubei province, Hangzhou in Zhejiang province and other cities through city-walking tours. “City-walking is all about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much,” he said.8．Why do Zhao call city-walking the best way to “rediscover a city”?A．The variety of travel choices is limited.B．Traditional group tour totally satisfies people’s need.C．It is a more enjoyable and personal way to explore the city.D．Common tour wastes much time in taking pictures.9．What do we know about city-walk culture?A．It refers to a 30-minute walk on the video-sharing app Douyin.B．It encourages the experience of free urban life without transportation.C．It offers practical travel tips through social media platforms.D．It shows historical moments of life-sharing platform Xiaohongshu.10．What can we learn in the last but one paragraph?A．City-walk has gained popularity on the Internet.B．City-walk is only loved by young people.C．City-walk recommends the shortest route from one city to another.D．City-walk has both advantages and disadvantages.11．What is the best title of the passage?A．Walking Out from Home B．Culture of Walking Catching on in Cities C．A Popular Social Platform D．Going Free to Explore the WorldTeachers play an important part in helping students develop intellectual humility (智性谦逊) , both in how they respond to being wrong or challenge themselves and in the tone and structure they set for classroom discussions.Students develop more openness and resilience (适应力) in classes where teachers readily admit to their own mistakes and maintain a class environment encouraging students to react respectfully when peers disagree or make mistakes.And research suggests it’s worth it for teachers to give students more chances to deal with challenging conversations in respectful ways.In one set of experiments at Columbia University’s Difficult Conversations Lab, pairs of adults were told they would spend 20 minutes trying to find agreement on debatable topics. For some, researchers lead them to think about the topic complicatedly: They provided background information in which opposite views were given, and the pairs were clearly told to “consider different perspectives (观点) .” For others, researchers simply contrasted (对比) opposing views and told the pairs, “ It is important to have a clear perspective.” A third group was given no directions.While the pairs who took a complex approach were able to write a joint (共同的) statement on their topic, less than half of the pairs who took a simplistic approach came to an agreement. Moreover, the pairs engaged in more complex discussions acted less defensively (防御性地), asked more questions of each other, and felt more positive during the discussions than those who had more black- and- white arguments or no direction at all.“Dealing with difficult issues has always been uncomfortable, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s something we should shy away from,” McQueen said. “Creating space to analyzenuance (细微差别) and to let young people experience nuance is difficult when there’s so much curriculum content to get through,” McQueen said. “But it’s trying to flesh out (充实) complexity and nuance that’s going to lead to a far greater willingness for people to just look for the areas of gray in life, rather than racing to judgments that are really easy and lazy.”12．What does “peers” underlined in the second paragraph mean?A．Roommates.B．Playmates.C．Workmates.D．Classmates. 13．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A．A doubt about the research methods.B．An explanation of the research results.C．An introduction to the research process.D．The application of the research findings. 14．What does McQueen suggest in the last paragraph?A．It’s meaningful for students to deal with difficult issues.B．Students should shy away from uncomfortable things.C．It’s useless for students to learn curriculum content.D．Students prefer easy and lazy judgments.15．Who might be the target readers of the passage?A．Editors.B．Educators.C．Doctors.D．Students.How to Do Better in SchoolThe start of a new school year is a great opportunity to improve your grades and experience at school, but you can choose to do better at any point during the year! 16 .
