When a baby sees a ball, the baby may reach out for it. If the baby is very young, and you 21 the ball behind a pillow (枕头), then the ball 22 exists for the child. As the child grows older, the child will move the pillow to get the ball. Even though the child cannot see the ball, the ball still exists. This is an early example of “learning to see the 23 ”.Just about all of us have 24 , so we all think we can see. But, in 25 we are all blind to probably 99% of the world. Because 26 people realize this, few people make the attempt to learn more in order to see more. Just like a child, what we don’t see doesn’t exist.27 , because most of us are blind to 99% of the world, we rely on others to give us the answers. We willingly allow doctors, lawyers, priests, and politicians to tell us what to do or think, but they take no responsibility when the results go wrong. Commercial（商业的）television, radio, newspapers, and magazines are largely corporate (法人的) owned, profit driven, and focus more on distraction（娱乐）and misinformation than on education. Yet, we continue reading, watching and listening to commercial media under the illusion（错觉）that we are learning. Corporate media is education with blinders. They only show you the 28 picture, and, in this way, they control public opinion. 29 needs to turn to noncommercial television, radio, and Internet world news to get the big picture.

广东省高一下学期期末英语试卷(附答案)
广东省高一下学期期末英语试卷(附答案）学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________一、阅读理解There’s a day for just about everything, and the United Nations has designated May 20 as World Bee Day to celebrate the pollinators (传粉昆虫) dwelling in hives, fields and gardens around the globe since 2015. It draws much concern on bees and there’s a good reason to pay attention to them.“There are 20,000 species of bees around the world and a lot of these bees are in decline,” says Hien Ngo, a pollinator expert from the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. That includes honeybees, of course, but Ngo says they only make up a minority of all the kinds of bees in the world. Climate change, pesticides and habitat loss are putting many of those species a risk.“Bees really provide for us in many ways, like food and human well-being. They’re also important to our culture, dating back thousands of years in terms of heritage, inspiration of art,” Ngo says. They even provide inspiration for TikTok, where Erika Thompson，a professional beekeeper in Austin,Texas, shares her work.“The landlord wanted to call an exterminator (根除者), but the family who lived here wanted to save the bees, so they called me,” she says in her video.Her fans watch with happiness — and sometimes a little horror-as she picks up mounds (成堆) of bees with her bare hands and then moves them somewhere safer.“I’ve removed bees from a lot of crazy places,” Thompson says. “You know, I’ve removed bees from homes, RVs, tires, speakers and even a toilet.”Thompson’s work is about more than getting millions of views per video. “Bees are just a key factor in creating diverse and healthy ecosystems,” she notes. 1．What can we know about World Bee Day?A．It has a long history of hundreds of years.B．It is celebrated on May 22 every year.C．It is designated by the United Kingdom.D．People pay more attention to bees because of it.2．Which factor that makes many bees in danger is NOT mentioned?A．The change of climate. B．The shortage of food.C．The damage to their habitat. D．The application of pesticides. 3．What’s Ngo’s attitude towards celebrating World Bee Day? A．Unconcerned. B．Neutral (中立的).C．Negative. D．Supportive.4．What’s the best title for the text?A．A Video-on BeesB．How to Celebrate World Bee Day?C．Why Should We Celebrate World Bee Day?D．How Can We Human Beings Protect Bees?I live in central London. It’s crowded. I see tons of people every day. The Uber driver. The office workers at rush hour. The cashiers at Sainsbury’s ... Deep in my thoughts, I encounter and interact with people mindlessly like a robot sometimes, without giving it much thought. It’s becoming rare for me to make spontaneous (自发的) friendships.My mom was and still is the queen of spontaneous friendships. She is the kind of person who will talk to a cashier and know her life story, talk to a sales assistant and become her friend, and talk to a man sitting nearby, get his number and have me visiting his workplace to get advice on job hunting. These mindless chats have brought her many friends, and they have also solved many problems. I can’t remember how many times she did her magic and pulled herself out of a bad situation. Sometimes I wish I could be more like her. But on reflection, it’s something I can practice and you can too.For me to change, I had to make a habit of some sort. Here are the three affirmations (肯定) I tell myself every day to be more open to people.We are all fellow humans. We are all in this world together so we might as well be friendly and make a connection with a fellow human.Today is going to be a great day. Maybe I’ll meet someone who will make my day.I might be saved by a stranger. I might even meet my future employer before evenapplying.Opportunities are created by people. Whether it is a job or anything else, opportunities come from people talking to each other.So next time you get your coffee, ride with a driver, wait in line or even sit in the underground, don’t be afraid to interact with a stranger. It will affect their day; it will affect yours and you might get to that opportunity or solution that was lying in them, waiting to be found.5．Why does the author say that he is like a robot?A．He has to work hard.B．He is as smart as a robot.C．He has little time to enjoy his life.D．He seldom makes a connection with strangers.6．What do we know about the author’s mother?A．She has good people skills. B．She is fond of giving advice. C．She has strong belief in magic. D．She is unaware of her privacy concerns. 7．What did the author think about what his mother did?A．It was helpful to her. B．It was none of her business.C．It should be more spontaneous. D．It failed to solve any problems. 8．What does the author suggest?A．Staying away from strangers.B．Keeping in touch with your old friends.C．Communicating with those you encounter.D．Avoiding sharing personal information with others.On James Owen’s 70th birthday, he saw a video of himself bending the top of his body forward and raising his shoulders and back and walking slowly up to the platform where he was giving a talk. “I looked like an old man,”says Owen,who builta successful career on Wall Street. Even worse, he felt like an old man. He was about25 pounds overweight and had trouble with his back, knees and shoulders.Later, instead of giving in to age, Owen decided to set an ambitious five-yeargoal.He wanted to be pain-free, and he decided the way to get there was through exercise-even though at the time he couldn’t do a single push-up. Owen began walking though he was out of breath after five minutes. But that didn’t discourage him. He kept at the walks every day, along with some stretching. Once he had those basics down,he started lifting weights and hired a personal trainer to teach him and design a routine he could follow on his own. The last piece was finding other activities he enjoyed,which turned out to be cycling and swimming.In less than five years, Owen was able to do three sets of 50 push-ups each and walk for miles each day. And yes,he was free of aches and pains“Aging is only about 25% genes, and the rest is lifestyle,“he says.“As long as you’re still mobile, it’s never too late to become more healthy.”Owen used his experience to write a book called Just Move! A New Approach to Fitness After 50,in which he details how older adults can safely get off the couch and add more movement to their lives. He says,“Think of it as movement not exercise.Get started even if you walk just three blocks, which was all I could manage at first.”He adds,“The key is slow and steady progress. Not every investment pays off,but it is the best investment I’ve ever made in my life.”9．What can we learn about Owen from the video?A．He was a tough guy.B．He was in bad physical condition.C．He was overweight but straight in shape.D．He was wealthy and enthusiastic about exercise.10．Why did Owen decide to set a five-year goal?A．To relieve pain.B．To lose weight.C．To write a book.D．To encourage investment.11．Which of the following does Owen agree with?A．It’s better to get started earlier.B．Genes play a key role in anti-aging.C．Healthy lifestyle is vital in delaying aging.D．Exercise quickly promotes physical recovery.12．What can be concluded from the text?A．Bad news has wings. B．A good medicine tastes bitter. C．Don’t judge a book by its cover. D．It is never too old to work out.It appears that language can have a fascinating effect on the way we think about time and space. A growing number of experts believe language can influence how we think just as our thoughts and culture can shape how language develops.Cognitive scientist Lera Boroditsky, one of the pioneers of research into how language manipulates our thoughts, has shown that English speakers typically view time as a horizontal (平的) line. They tend to view time as travelling from left to right, most likely in line with how you are reading the text on this page.Languages also encode (编码) time in their grammar. In English, the future is one of three simple tenses, along with the past and the present — we say “it rained”, “it rains” and “it will rain”. But in German, you can say Morgen regnet, which means “it rains tomorrow”— you don’t need to build the future into the grammar.But does this affect how we think? In 2013, Keith Chen, a behavioral economist at the University of California, set out to test whether people who speak languages that are “futureless” might feel closer to the future than those who speak other languages. For example, German, Chinese, and Japanese have no linguistic barrier between the present and the future, while “futured languages” , such as English, French, Italian and Spanish, encourage speakers to view the future as something separate from the present.He discovered that speakers of futureless languages were more likely to engage in future-focused activities. They were 31% more likely to have put money into savings in any given year and had gained 39% more wealth by retirement. They were also 24% less likely to smoke and 29% more likely to be physically active.It is becoming increasingly clear that language is influencing how we think about the world around us, which is not to say that any one language is “better” thananother. But being aware of how languages differ can help you think, navigate and communicate better. And while being multilingual (多语的) won’t necessarily make you a genius, we all can gain a more flexible understanding of the world by learning a new language.13．What does the underlined word “manipulates” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Weakens. B．Shapes. C．Impacts. D．Deepens. 14．How does the author organize paragraph 3?A．By listing figures. B．By giving examples.C．By giving definitions. D．By explaining the reasons.15．What were speakers of futureless languages likely to do?A．Smoke and drink.B．Be mentally active.C．Spend money without restriction.D．Take part in future-focused activities.16．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?A．One language is much better than another.B．Being multilingual can help you become a genius.C．Learning a new language can change your way of life.D．Language has an impact on how we think about the world.二、七选五Now I live in Paris. Actually, I don’t mind the food or the people, but I do care about the land that is extraordinarily lack of characteristics of hiking. I enjoy being outdoors and hiking, but Paris’s natural resources don’t hold much potential for my bent. So when my dad asked if I wanted to go hiking with him, I was overjoyed. 17 . It turned out that I was too optimistic.We started our main hike up Flattop Mountain. As we hiked it was much more challenging than I expected. 18 . The path is winding and we saw mountains towering over the green valleys and cliffs that seemed endless. What amazed me most was that thick clouds enveloped the mountainsides. 19 .I stared up at the top to see how much farther we had to go and I began to worrythat I wouldn’t finish it. 20 . It made me doubtful about my persistence (坚持). But when we looked back at the path that faded in the distance, I was filled with fulfillment with seeing how much we had done.As I was hiking, I started to reflect on how hiking was similar to other aspects of my life. 21 . It reminded me of my struggles in my classes and the difficulties I had to overcome. I spotted that the process of learning isn’t always the most fun, but the fulfillment after seeing how much I had finished just increases the thirst for knowledge, causing me to long for more learning. Looking down at the mountain I was content but never fully satisfied. Having considered a lot, I was determined to pursue the summit (山顶).A．Hiking could make me fly.B．Hiking gave time for my mind to wander.C．I thought I would finish the journey with ease.D．But I was shocked at the beauty surrounding me.E．I was satisfied with the landscape along the way.F．It was unlike anything I had ever witnessed before.G．A recent ankle injury had left me unsure of my physical capabilities.三、完形填空A seven-year-old boy has become one of the youngest people to cycle from Londonto him.Rupert’s life was 32 forever when his Dad passed away in 2019.

He became one of the most recognized gallery managers of the 21st century. He made Hong Kong his base in 2010. Today, with one gallery he re and another in Beijing, he’s clearly fallen in love with art.By Philippe DovaWhat made you decide to based in Asia?I have been coming to Asia since 1981, doing business first in Japan and Korea, then in the early 90s in Taiwan, China and Southeast Asia. Half of my business was in Asia and I quickly started spending two weeks of every month in his area. I made many friends with new collectors who were interested in both Western and Eastern art. In 2010, staying in Asia and opening a gallery in Hong Kong seemed like the natural thing to do.Why Hong Kong?There was nothing to indicate that Hong Kong would become the center of the Asian art market. However, there were the wonderful location, the tax(税)advantages and so on---everything just came together.Art Basel came to Hong Kong shortly after you didThere was already Art HK, but after careful research of the market. I believed it was reasonable for Art Basel to take over Art UK.What will you be exhibiting at Art Basel this year?We’ll be showing only postwar Asian artists and new-generation Beijing artists. At the same time, we’ll be opening our new gallery in Wong Chuk Hang on the south side of Hong Kong Island.【1】When did Pascal de Sarthe first come to China for business?A．In 1981B．In the 1990sC．In 2010D．In the 2010s【2】Why did Pascal de Sarthe make Hong Kong his base in 2010?A．Hong Kong was the center of the Asian art marketB．There were many advantages in Hong KongC．Art Basel was better than Art HKD．He had two galleries in China【3】What will Pascal de Sarthe do this year?A．He will show interest in art exhibitionB．He will care more about Beijing artistsC．He will open another gallery in Hong KongD．He will move to the south of Hong Kong Island【4】Where is this passage probably form?A．A novel B．A business reportC．A poster D．A newspaper4.How many times a day do you check your email? When you wake up? Before bed? A dozen times in between? The technology that was supposed to make our lives simple has taken up too much time. The average young man spends more than seven hours a day using technological devices(设备), with an additional hour just text-messaging friends.The advantage of technological devices is connectedness: email lets us respond on the go, and we are in touch with more people during more hours of the day than at any other time in history. But is it possible that we’re lonelier than ever, too? That’s what MIT professor Sherry Turkle observes in her newbook, Alone Together, which clearly describes our changing relationship with technology.For Turkle, the biggest worry is the effec t the weak connections have on our development. Technology isn’t offering us the lives we want to live. “We’re texting people at a distance,” says Turkle, “We’re using lifeless objects to convince ourselves that even when we’re alone, we feel together. And then when we’re with each other, we put ourselves in situations where we are alone—always on our mobile devices. It’s what I call a perfect storm of confusion about what’s important in our human connections.”Moreover, communicating online is not equal to face-to-face communication. Online, you can ignore others’ feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact. A number of studies have found that this generation of young people is less sympathetic(有同情心的)than ever. “That doesn’t lead to disaster,” says Turkle, “but the disadvantages still cannot be ignored.”【1】From the first paragraph we can learn that_________.A．email checking helps people wake up earlyB．people communicate mainly by text-messaging nowC．technological device production has been simplifiedD．using technological devices costs young men much time【2】What is Sherry Turkle’s biggest worry?A．Technology may make human connections confusingB．Technology can’t help people remove lonelinessC．Technology may make people’s lives hardD．Technology keeps people together【3】What is the author’s attitude to the influence of technology on people’s life?A．Positive B．NegativeC．Hopeless D．Uncertain【4】What is the passage mainly about?A．Technology brings many conveniences to people’s livesB．Young men spend too much time on technological devicesC．Technology also brings people some disadvantagesD．Sherry Turkle observes people’s changing relationship with technology二、其他Tips for Upcoming Senior TwoPeople often describe Senior Two as a year with “much more homework, more frequent exams and more fierce competitions”. 【1】1. Manage your time carefully and make full use of it.Try to study not hard but efficiently. Make a to-do-list for your time after school. Don’t just spend quite a long time on only one subject.【2】Remember to take breaks when you feel exhausted.2. Treat Competition in Class in a right way.Don’t treat your classmates as potential(潜在的)enemies. Competition cannot be avoided, but everyone wants to study and live in a friendly environment.【3】By helping others solve problems, you inspire others, enrich your own knowledge and gain lasting friendship.3.【4】Don’t let your former rankings limit you. What really mat ters is how you treat exams and ranking. Forget the class ranking or grade rankings, but compete with yourself. In a while, you will see yourself climbing in scores and rankings.All in all, the coming new school year is sure to be full of challenges. Too much worry only adds to your difficulties in your development.【5】Wish you the best of luck in the new academic year!A．Learn for yourself, not for others.B．Have a right attitude towards your rankings.C．Good time management skills are very important.D．Instead, divide the hours into small periods for different subjectsE. When you prepare for the battle, some advice from me may be of helpF. So when they turned to you for help, just share your wisdom immediatelyG.

Right then and there, before the eyes of all the people present, the train collided with the truck heavily and struck it dozens of metres away.When Randolph Bruce, the driver , was helped out of the damaged truck, he was badly wounded just as the young woman had foretold (预言) on the phone.

You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink maybe just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.【1】Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the following EXCEPT that ______.A．they have beautiful colors and cool namesB．they have lots of caffeineC．they can keep them awake and better at sportsD．they are said to be helpful to health【2】The main reason for people not to drink too much energy drinks is that they may cause ______.A．heart problems B．nervousnessC．sleeping difficulty D．possible health dangers【3】The underlined word “discouraged” can be replaced(替换) with ______.A．encouraged B．stopped C．helped D．disliked【4】From the passage we can know that ______.A．advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB．energy drinks are h elpful to teenagers’ studyC．sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD．energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers【5】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? ______A．What’s the Use of Energy Drinks?B．Who Can Drink Energy Drinks?C．What’s That in Energy Drinks?D．Why Can’t We Buy Energy Drinks?2.“Some day, there’ll be no Americans left in the NBA,” said 12-year-old Xing Tao, who joined his school team two weeks ago after watching Yao Ming in a te levised NBA game, “The players will all be Chinese, like Yao.”To China, Yao is a home-grown superstar who helped make the world’s first basketball league closer to Chinese players. To the NBA, the 2.23-meter center offers an opening of a different sort in to the world’s largest new market. Yao’s NBA first appearance against the Indiana Pacers in October reached 287 million families in the US. That game might have been a bit of a letdown to Yao’s fans: He played just 11 of the 48 minutes, had two rebounds(篮板) and got no points. Comparing that with his performance on December 19, also against Indiana, Yao won 29 points and 10 rebounds. “This was one of the most exciting games I’ve had,” Yao said after Houston’s 95-83 victory. The NBA has to be excited about his on-count success. In all his games, he’s averaging 12.7 points and 7.7 rebounds, quite good for a new star. “Yao Ming has brought the NBA closer to the Chinese,” said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching, “That makes the dream seem practical for other people in China and proud to be Chinese.”The 22-year-old Yao is not the country’s first player in the NBA: Wang Zhizhi broke down the Dallas Mavericks in November 2003. But Yao’s combination of modesty and skills make him a favorite back home.【1】What’s the dir ect reason for Xing Tao to join the school basketball team?A. He watched an NBA gameB. He liked basketball.C. He hoped to play for the NBA.D. He had dream that he would become a basketball star.【2】How many points did Yao Ming win in his first game in the NBA?A．zero B．two C．29D．10【3】What does the word “letdown” in line 4, Paragraph 2 mean?A．failure B．surprise C．disappointment D．sadness.【4】Why does Yao Ming win more popularity than Wang Zhizhi at home?A．He is modest and performs excellently.B．He is too kind to others.C．More and more Chinese people like to watch his games.D．He is very modest but proud.【5】What’s the main idea of this passage?A. Middle school students want to play basketballB. Yao Ming makes NBA closer to China.C. There’ll be no Americans left in the NBAD. There are many new stars from China in the NBA.3.American is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they d on’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine (常规). They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!【1】The writer of this passage must be ___________.A．an American B．a Chinese C．a professor D．a student【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their family.B．Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C．Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D．Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.【3】From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be _________________.A．warmly welcomed at the airport B．offered a ride to his homeC．treated hospitably at his home D．treated to dinner in a restaurant【4】From the underlined sentence, we can know the Chinese people __________.A．are strict with time B．don’t take time seriouslyC．don’t know how to use time D．are willing to spend time for friends【5】A suitable title for this passage would probably be “________________”.A．Friendships between ChineseB．Friendships between AmericansC．Americans’hospitalityD．Americans’and Chinese’s views of friendship4.A.

For example, the tomato is a kind of very delicious vegetable. It is one of useful plants that can be prepared in many ways. It has rich nutrition and vitamin in it. But in the 18th century, Americans never ate tomatoes. They grew them in their gard ens because tomato plants are so pretty. But they thought the vegetable was poisonous (有毒的). They called tomatoes “poison apples.”Preside nt Thomas Jefferson, however, knew that tomatoes were good to eat. He was a learned man. He had been to Paris, where he learned to love the taste of tomatoes. He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden. The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup. This beautiful pink soup was served at the President’s party. The guests thought the soup tasted really good. They never thought the ir president would serve his honored guests poison apples. Jefferson never spoke to his honored (忠实的) guests about the fact.26. After you read the passage, which of the following do you think is true?A.

None of the guests knew that their president would serve his honored guests poison apples.BHundreds of years ago, Native-American tribes lived in Mexico. The Aztecs built beautiful cities. They had a calendar (历法) and a written language. However, theSpanish destroyed the Aztecs inl521. For the next 300 years, Spain ruled overMexico.That’s why Mexicans speak Spanish. Every September l6 the Mexican people hold a celebration in Mexico City, their country’s capital. It is their Independence Day. On that date in 1821 they told Spain they would no longer be ruled. Breaking free from Spain caused a war. When it was over, the Mexicanshavetheir own government. They made their own laws.Today America and Mexico are friends, but it wasn’t always that way. President James Polk wanted America to reach from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. He tried to buy what is now the American southwest from Mexico. Mexico would not sell. So from l846 to 1848 Mexico and America fought a war to ascertain where their borders would be. When the war ended, Mexico had lost a lot of land. Now the Rio Grande River forms the border between the two nations. America is on the north side of the river. Mexico is on the south side.Mexico has mountains and a hot, dry climate. Crops can grow on only a small part of the land. Still, Mexicans grow much of the coffee, oranges, and sugar used in the US. Mexicans have influenced building styles in southwestern US and added words such as patio and canton toAme rican English. Americans also enjoy eating many Mexican foods like burritos, tacos, tortillas, and tamales.31. According to the passage, what happened second on historical timeline?A. The Spanish ruled Mexico.B.

In fact, 94 percent of the world’s 400 species are harmless to humans.A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium (水族馆) in Baltimore, US proves this. Visitors can touch young sharks, see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species(种类) swim smoothly around a huge tank.Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don't happen very often. Humans are more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark.And to make this point clear, the museum has set up a special touching pool for children. There, kids can learn, from an early age, not to fear sharks. They can watch them develop inside the eggs and feel the skin of the older swimmers."People fear what they don't know," said Nancy Hotchkiss, an organizer of the exhibition, which runs till December. "Sharks have been round for 400 million years and play an important role in the ocean's food chain. We want people to dis cover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection."A shocking 100 million sharks are killed every year by humans around the world. A study, publishe d in January in the US magazine Science, found that almost all recorded sharks species have fallen by half in the past eight to fifteen years.Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods, such as shark fin (鱼翅) soup. And many others get caught in nets, while fishermen are hunting other fish. More than half of all sharks are smaller than one meter long."Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean," said Dave Schofield, the manager of the aquarium's ocean health program. "The fishermen threw them away like rubbish."It is a worrying situation and some areas hav e put measures in place to protect these species of fish.41. Which of the following is the aim of the writer?A. It is not true that sharks are always dangerous.B. Sharks have been around for about 400 million years.C. Sharks actually always hurt or even kill people.D. Most of the world's species don't hurt people.42.

In the last but one paragraph the underlined word "them" refers toA. fishing netsB. fishing boatsC. small sharksD. fishing methods44.

Large sharks cannot be caught by someB.Too many sharks are being killed by some fishing methods.C. The ocean is being made cleaner by some fishing methods.D.

Many great men of the world have a wonderful memory.A good memory is greatly helpful in learning a language.

If you don't want to pay money to buy them, you'll have to bring your own shopping bag.What kind of bags will be the best to bring? Students in Kunming Xinying Middle School have some good ideas. Recently 54 students of the school held an activity in which they made their own environmentally-friendly shopping bags.Most students used old clothes to make their bags. They painted pictures like the Olympic rings on them.But Wang Shuncheng, a Junior 2 boy, chose a different material (材料). He made his bag with old newspaper. Is a newspaper bag strong enough to hold shopping? Wang says it is, "No problem. I put six bottles of water in the bag," he said. "It's strong enough!"Chen Lisi, a girl, had a more traditional way to make her bag – she weaved (编织) a bamboo basket. It was not an easy job. With her grandfather's help, Chen spent a whole afternoon making it. She also weaved wool (毛线) flowers on the basket.Making bags was not all the students did. They had another job: to persuade their parents and relatives to use environmentally-friendly shopping bags instead of plastic ones.

He was frail and moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note reading, “Drink your juice.” Such a gesture, I knew, was as far as Dad had ever been able to go in expressing his love. In fact, I remember, as a kid I had questioned Mom“ Why doesn't Dad love me!” Mom frowned. “Who said he doesn't love you!” “Well, he never tells me,” I complained. “He never tells me either,” she said, smiling. “But look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for this house. That's how your father tells us he loves us.” Then Mom held me by the shoulders and asked, “Do you understand?’’ I nodded slowly. I understood in my head, but not in my heart. I still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. Dad owned and operated a small scrap（片）metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. I always hoped he'd ask me to help and then praise me for what I did. He never asked. His tasks were too dangerous for a young boy to attempt, and Mom was already worried enough that he'd hurt himself. Dad hand fed scrap steel into a device that chopped it as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. The machine looked like a giant pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my father's body. If he didn't feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. “Why don't you hire someone to do that for you?” Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. “Why don't you hire a cook? ”Dad asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me, I walked over, hugged him and said, “I love you, Dad.” From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.【1】What would be the best title for the passage?A．I just couldn’t understand my fatherB．My father never loved meC．Silent fatherly loveD．My hard-working father【2】The author’s father always prepared a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for him because _______ A．that was the author’s favoriteB．he was sure the author would be thirstyC．the author was always complainingD．that was a gesture of love【3】T he author’s father didn’t hire a helper because________A．his job was too dangerousB．his job required high skillsC．he wanted to save moneyD．he was not good at communicating with others【4】We can infer from the passage that_______A．the author’s father lacked a sense of humorB．the author quite understand his father as time went onC．the author’s father didn’t love him very muchD．the author’s father was too strict with him2. Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal (信号). Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship. Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries -- like the UK or France -- people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or café’s rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment (多元文化环境) will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.【1】In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to _______.A．develop closer relations B．share the same cultureC．get to know each other D．keep each other company【2】The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _________.A．the English prefer to make long speechesB．too many words are of no useC．people from Thailand are quiet and shy by natureD．even talk and silence can be culturally different【3】According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?A．By sharing different ways of life.B．By accepting different habits.C．By recognizing different values.D．By speaking each other' s languages.【4】What would be the best title for the text?A．Multicultural Environment.B．Cross-Cultural Differences.C．How to Understand Each Other.D．How to Build Up a Relationship.3. After ten years, the world' s largest music festival, Rock in Rio, returned to its hometown Rio de Janeiro for seven days of concerts from Friday, September 23rd, attracting 700,000 people over the whole week．It is the 10th edition of the Rock in Rio festival, but only the 4th to be held in Rio as the organizers exported the festival to Lisbon and Madrid ten years ago．The first edition of the festival was in 1985 and the most recent edition in Rio was held in January, 2001．A total of 700,000 tickets were sold out for this year' s festival．The festival consists of four stages with the participation of International stars including Elton John, Katy Perry, and bands Metallica, Evanescence and System of a Down．Several stars which performed in previous editions are also on the list this year．．In addition, a number of local singers and bands will also join this year．The performance site, named as Rock City, is a 150,000-square-meter area．Besides the concert area, the site also has a giant Ferns wheel, a roller coaster, and a small shopping mall．After the festival, the Rock City area will be converted into a leisure area to athletes in the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro According to Rio' s tourism company Riotur, out of the 700,000 people expected in the festival, some 315,000will be tourists, who raised the hotels' occupation rate to 98 percent．Riotur estimated that the Rock in Rio festival will bring 419 million U．S．dollars for the city and create 10,000 jobs．The creator of the festival, Brazilian businessmen Roberto Medina, insisted on opening the Rock City gates himself, in the early afternoon, and greeted the first fans to enter the site．"We come to the gate because the Brazilian audience is even more important than the bands．We applaud them．They make the greatest show," he said．【1】The first edition of the festival may be held in ____．A．Rio de Janeiro B．LisbonC．Madrid D．a place not mentioned【2】Up to now, the festival has been held in Rio for at least _____．A．ten times B．four timesC．three times D．twice【3】The number of native people to attend the festival is probably ____．A．700,000B．315,000C．10,000D．385,000【4】From the passage, we can know ____．A．Rock City is a great theatreB．Only rock bands are invited to the festival?C．the festival will improve the employment of RioD．The gate of Rock City was opened by the Brazilian audience4.High-tech machines have made life easier for millions around the world．However, some people still prefer low-tech ways of doing things．Here’s an example of why this is happening．You can microwave a frozen hamburger in 60 seconds．However, it won’t taste as good as one you cook on the stove．And if you’re in that much of a hurry, you probably won’t take time to toast the bun．High-tech cooking saves time, but it doesn’t make for better-tasting meals．Most people get their news from high-tech sources like television or the Internet．This has many advantages．For example, electronic news is more up to date than newspapers or magazines．It’s also more exciting to see live and videotaped news events than photographs．However, newspapers and magazines have some important advantages．They give more background and details．They also let you read the parts that are important to you and skip the rest．Other high-tech timesavers have similar disadvantages．For example, most people use the phone or e-mail to stay in touch with friends and family members who live in other places．But when you use the Internet or the phone, you won’t always think carefully about what you are saying, and sometimes you forget the important things you want to communicate．Similarly, when you word-process a homework assignment instead of handwriting it, you can check your spelling electronically and put in fancy headings．However, some students are so busy with the computer that they don’t pay enough attention to the actual words they are writing．【1】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?A．The writer likes high-tech cookingB．Low-tech cooking produces better-tasting meals．C．High-tech news programs always keeps you reading what is important to you．D．Handwritten homework is better than word-processed homework．【2】How does the writer feel about high-tech tools?A．Better late than never．B．Easy come, easy go．C．Every coin has two sides．D．Learn to walk before you run．【3】What is the main subject discussed in the text?A．High-tech vs low-tech．B．Advantages vs disadvantages．C．Newspapers and magazines vs television and the Internet．D．Word-processing vs handwriting．【4】How is the text organized?A．Main idea-Argument-ExplanationB．Opinion-Discussion-DescriptionC．Topic-Comparison-Supporting examples．D．Introduction-Supporting examples-Discussion．5.Sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water,you need large, flat, black surfaces. One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them run from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the groun.When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes itunderground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer(蓄水层) into which heat several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warming the ground-water, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.【1】Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A．Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.B．Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.C．The Dutch engineer's system has been widely used.D．Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.【2】 For what purpose are the diving pipes used?A．To absorb heat from the sun.B．To store heat for future use.C．To turn solar energy into heat energy.D．To carry heat down below the surface.【3】From the last paragraph we can learn that __A．some pipes have to be re-arranged in winterB．the system can do more than warming up the buildingC．the exchangers will pick up heat from the street surfaceD．less heat may be collected in winter than in summer【4】What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A．What we shall do if the system goes wrong .B．What shall we do if there are no asphalt roadsC．How the system cools the building in summer .D．How the system collects heat in spring and autumn.三、书面表达水是生命之源，而在现实生活中，浪费水的现象屡见不鲜。

After mama Robin and her babies finally took off,the blackout was lifted,but the village's extraordinary protection efforts for the sake of one lone bird and her babies didn't go unnoticed.A bird in the hand may be worth two in the bush,but a bird in the switchboard has earned Potthakudi a reputation for kindness that's likely to light up smiles for quite some time to come.4.What can we know about Karuppu Raja？______A. He does his job carelessly.B. He loves birds all the time.C. He argues with his villagers.D. He is the leader of the village.5.Which can replace the underlined word "ousted" in Paragraph 6？______A.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.D. A bird is known by its note and a man by his talk.CIn a time when many people around the globe are in lockdown（封锁）and unable to attend the gym,home exercising is becoming important.Fears of piling on the pounds are forcing many to find novel ways to move the body.You don't need to pump iron or have expensive equipment like rowing and cycling machines to help you stay fit.Exercising is not just important for your body,but also your mind.A study by Dr.Andrea Dunn at the Cooper Research Institute in Dallas,Texas found patients who did daily 35-minute walks per week experienced a 47% reduction in their depression（抑郁）levels. Cardiovascular（心血管的）exercise,often simply called cardio,is designed to keep your heart rates up,which in turn will strengthen your heart and improve your general fitness.Many of us are turning to activities like skipping with an old rope,or watching one of the many "fitness experts" who produce exercise videos online.Walking is another great activity to help you increase your blood circulation.There are manyaffordable pedometers which can be worn like a watch and used to track your steps,heart rates and sleeping patterns.You don't even have to step outside,with many people simply doing some power walking or running round their gardens or up and down their hallways.Practicing yoga or Tai Chi can help to increase our body flexibility,which in turn can lower joint pain and help to protect us from injury.Finally,strength and resistance training can be done at home by simply lifting bags of rice or boxes instead of heavy weights in the gym.There are many ways to help us stay active,and indeed these exercise habits can be carried over in our lives long after lockdown is lifted.For those of us who complain about our busy lives stopping us from hitting the gym,ten minutes a day with a rope or a bag of rice may not only help our fitness,but our mental health too.8.What may encourage us to find new ways to exercise according to Paragraph1？______A. Living a boring life.B. Gaining weight.C. Being mentally ill.D. Losing connection.9.Which is the most suitable for maintaining the heart rate？______A. Rope skipping.B. Pumping iron.C. Power walking.D. Lifting bags.10.What are the possible benefits of yoga and Tai Chi？______A. Losing weight quickly.B. Making our bodies stay flexible.C. Letting us recover from injury slowly.D. Reducing your depression levels efficiently.11.What's the best title of the text？______A. How to Exercise at HomeB. What to Do in LockdownC. Different Ways to Keep HealthyD. The Importance of StayingDFit Sweden and its Nordic neighbors have some of the highest literacy rates（识字率）in the world.The Swedes view equal access to knowledge as important to an individual's future success.This is true regardless of economic background and,clearly,geographic location. Sweden has a floating library-the bokbaten-that brings thousands of books to people on dozens of remote islands in the Stockholm archipelago twice a year.Every spring and fall since 1953，the Stockholm Library Service rents a boat for a week,loads it with books,and charts a course for about 23 inhabited（有人居住的）islands.When the boat pulls in,people climb aboard to return books they borrowed during the last visit and check out the library's newest offerings.The boat carries about 3，000 books,and people can put in requests ahead of time.The three or four volunteer librarians who take turns working on the ship say that,as you might expect,the latest best-sellers are in high demand.There are picture books for children,popular thrillers,texts about history and science,cookbooks,and audiobooks,etc.In addition to a library boat,Sweden also has library buses that bring books to people in rural communities.They also develop temporary（临时的）libraries in places such as stores and social gathering spots.The boat starts as a service for fishermen and island workers but expands to serve people who prefer to read hard copies of books over e-books or audiobooks.Since island people can order copies in advance,boxes of books are piled up in the boat waiting to be delivered.The book boat is of great positive value for children and adults because they can in this way take part in the modern public library.The book boat has an important function as good public relations for the library's services and has the effect of promoting reading not only in the archipelago but else-where.Even in a nation of book lovers,the future of the floating library remains uncertain.If the Regional Library cuts funding for the boat,the bokbaten will be no more.12.What is the key to a person's future success according to the Swedes？______A. Equal access to knowledge.B. Economic background.C. Geographic location.D. Personal effort.13.What can we know about the book boat？______A. It has a promising future.B. It is run by several official librarians.C. It brings books to people many times a year.D. It is popular among people of remote islands.14.What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the book boat？______A. Its positive role.B. Its uncertain future.C. Its great effect on kids.D. Its difference from public libraries.15.In which section of a newspaper can we probably read the text？______A. Travel.B. Lifestyle.C. Business.D. Art.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Life can get pretty hard sometimes and there is nothing worse than seeing a friend or a loved one in pain.Follow one or two of these easy tips on how to cheer someone up and make someone's day better.Listen UpWhen life gets difficult it helps to have someone willing to listen.Sometimes,a person just needs to pour out（倾诉）.Allow the person you know to air out their problem.

广东省中山市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末统考英语试题
广东省中山市2023-2024学年高一下学期期末统考英语试题一、阅读理解Beijing is a city of opposites, with one foot in the past and another in the present. Nowhere is this contrast more visible than in its architecture, where traditional and modern styles coexist. Here are three spots to enjoy the ancient architecture as well as spring flowers in Beijing.Longevity HillSitting at the back of Longevity Hill, the Flower Pavilion and Glass Tower are hidden spots in the Summer Palace where you can breathe in the colorful spring in quietude. The Flower Pavilion was constructed in 1754, and the Glass Tower in the pavilion was a gift from Emperor Qianlong to celebrate his mother’s 60th birthday.The pavilion was destroyed by British and French soldiers in 1860 while the colorful tower survived. The original Flower Pavilion is in ruins but the flowers in the garden still blossom (开花) every spring.The Imperial GardenThe Imperial Garden in the Forbidden City was only enjoyed by members of the royal (皇家的) family, but now its beauty can be appreciated by the public. The pink apricot flowers in front of the palaces have viewed the change of history.Drum Tower and Bell TowerBeijing’s Bell and Drum Towers lie on the northern end of the central line of the inner city. Looking at each other for hundreds of years, the two towers are surrounded by hutongs and trees.The best place to enjoy the spring views of the old city is to find a coffee shop or a restaurant in the hutong, where you can see the spring flowers blossoming against the towers. 1．What gift did Emperor Qianlong present to his mother for her 60th birthday?A．The Glass Tower.B．The Western Hills.C．The Imperial Garden.D．Drum Tower and Bell Tower.2．What do we know about the Imperial Garden?A．It includes two towers.B．It was destroyed in 1860.C．It was meant for the royalty.D．It features spring flowers.3．Which is the best spot to admire the sights of Beijing in spring?A．A shopping center.B．A hutong cafe.C．The roof of the towers.D．The north of the city.As a mother, I can’t imagine how heartbroken a mother would be if she is told that she can’t afford the treatment for her baby who suffers from cancer. And Cupcakes of Hope is a non-profit organization which raises funds to help families of children who are battling cancer.Despite my poor health, I volunteered for this worthy cause. I’m not a good baker, but I am good at selling stuff, so I signed up to help turn all the beautiful, delicious cupcakes donated by others into money for these families in need. Our stand was set up in the Canal Walk Shopping Centre at 8 a. m. so that volunteers were ready to sell from 9 a. m. My shift started at 2 p. m. Before I got there, I expected to find a pretty empty table. I could not have been more mistaken!Four big tables were full of beautiful cupcakes of every colour and flavour and there were3 shopping carts full of boxes of cupcakes which had not even been unpacked yet! The generosity and creativity of every single baker really were beyond my expectation.The best moment of the day came when a sweet, blue-eyed toddler arrived at the stand. He was about 18 months old, happily sucking on a pacifier (安抚奶嘴) in his mom’s arms. I told his parents that all cupcakes were free gifts and all money raised would help families. His dad donated, and I picked out a Cookie Monster cupcake for the boy. As soon as I showed it to him he smiled from ear to ear, dropped his pacifier, and grabbed the cupcake. It made me feel happy and warm to see his bright eyes and joyful smile!We kept turning cupcakes into cash until the last possible minute and still had enough cupcakes left over to donate to the needy! The time just flew by. I’m really grateful to have had the opportunity to do my small part for this very worthy cause.4．What made the author decide to volunteer for Cupcakes of Hope?A．She was good at baking.B．She was seeking a job opportunity.C．She wanted to do something meaningful.D．She wanted to help her baby fight against cancer.5．What surprised the author when she arrived at the stand?A．The tables were not clean.B．There were few customers.C．There were still a lot of cupcakes.D．V olunteers hadn’t packed the cupcakes. 6．What was the author’s favorite part of the event?A．A big donation.B．A baby’s happy reaction.C．Selling lots of cupcakes.D．The generosity of bakers.7．What is the best title for the text?A．A Meaningful Charity Project B．A Beautiful Story about CupcakesC．A Determined and Generous Mother D．A Rewarding V olunteering ExperienceTechnology and the Psychology of Second Language Learners and Users is a collection of studies that focuses on second language (L2) teaching and learning. This book, made up of 23parts, presents research on how technology affects the learning psychology (心理) of L2learners.One of the main contributions of the book is that it is more than just a descriptive account of current research regarding technology and the psychological side of L2 learners. A key view is that technology does not necessarily lead to positive psychological effects. In fact, some learners may feel anxious or uncomfortable using technology for language learning, which can hinder their performance. What’s more, learner psychology still requires closer examination, as learners’ attitudes towards technology-assisted learning do not always match their actual practices.Another important contribution of this book is that it presents the connection and interplay between language learners’ online identity and offline identity. As studies in the book have shown, positive online identities may support language learning and can potentially apply to offline situations. Also, individuals have different identities in the off line environment, which may influence how they experience online.A third contribution of the book is that it provides various cases in detail to tell readers how to conduct research. Technology has created different online learning contexts for researchers to investigate, such as blogs and online social networks, to name a few. Thus, researchers are offered a lot of choices and have various studies to refer to when they do future research.As illustrated above, this book provides both theoretical and practical value. It familiarizes researchers with the interplay of technology, psychology, and L2 learning, while also reminding teachers of the importance of integrating(结合) technology thoughtfully, considering individuallearner differences. Adding instructions and steps on how to apply research findings to real teaching and learning contexts at the end of each part could further strengthen the book’s usefulness for language instructors.8．What does the underlined word “hinder” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Predict.B．Prevent.C．Analyze.D．Improve. 9．What can we learn about the book?A．It indicates the benefits of positive online identities.B．It illustrates the technology for positive psychology.C．It develops offline learning contexts for researchers.D．It provides detailed instructions for language teachers.10．What's the author's attitude towards the book?A．Neutral.B．Negative.C．Unclear.D．Positive. 11．What is the text?A．A book review.B．A news report.C．A research paper.D．A learning guide.If talking near a busy road is tough, think how hard it is to raise a baby bird in that place. Anew experiment on growing birds shows traffic noise has a negative influence on their growth and leads to lifelong harm.Researchers already knew too much noise can disturb breeding birds, making it more difficult for parents to communicate with and care for their nestlings. But it wasn't clear whether the noise itself could directly harm young birds.Mariette, a behavioral ecologist at Deakin University, and her team set out to answer that question with zebra finches held in an aviary (鸟舍) on campus in Melbourne, Australia. For 5nights they played eggs either road noise or zebra finch songs for several hours. The sounds were kept at a moderate volume of 65 decibel. Other eggs were left in silence. After the eggs hatched, the baby birds received one of two treatments —— road noise or zebra finch songs ——for another 9 nights. The nestlings heard the sounds in a separate room and then were returned to their nests.Eggs that heard traffic noise hatched 19% less often than those that heard bird songs. As thebaby birds developed, they also showed worrying development signs. Those exposed to noise grew slower, and had health problems. Their blood had fewer red blood cells, and their cells were under stress. When they became adults, they had half as many babies as the birds that heard songs when they were young. “I’ve never had such clear results in any experiments before,” Mariette says.How exactly traffic noise harms the young birds remains a mystery. Auditory (听觉的) parts of the brain connect to areas important for development and the regulation of emotion and learning, so it’s likely that noise could disrupt healthy growth. Mariette says she would like to conduct other experiments to learn what aspects of noise are harmful. For example, it could be that hearing constant sound without any rhythm —— unlike song—is somehow stressful.12．What does the underlined word “nestlings” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Baby birds.B．Sick birds.C．Mother birds.D．Birds’ eggs. 13．Why did Mariette and her team conduct the experiment?A．To test the volume of noises on campus.B．To answer a question about zebra finches.C．To compare road noise with zebra finch songs.D．To examine the influence of noise on little birds.14．How did the noise affect the birds’ growth according to the experiment?A．It made them less stressful.B．It prevented the birds having babies.C．It led to the slow growth of the birds.D．It reduced parent birds 'red blood cells.15．What is Mariette most likely to study next?A．Functions of the auditory parts of birds’ brains.B．The harmful parts of noise to young birds' growth.C．The impact of rhythmic sounds on birds' development.D．The impact of traffic noise on birds' emotion and learning.Challenging and fun hobbies have the power to make us happier and healthier. And they also enable us to have a closer connect ion with others. 16 . Here experts will tell you how todiscover the hobbies you don’t know you’ll love.Ask yourself how you want to feelHobbies present an escape—they can help you get out of your head and calm down. It is necessary to ask yourself how you want an activity to make you feel. Mentally engaged? Relaxed? Socially connected? Recognize that you have different needs at different moments, and that’s OK.17 .Keep an open mindKeeping an open mind and not ignoring potential hobbies is the key. Human beings are born to be curious and open, which is usually forgotten in this burned-out world. 18 It could introduce you to something you never guessed you’d love.19Don’t spend a ton of time and money on a new hobby immediately. Ease in to figure out if it’s right for you, and you can always do more later. Try out a free online course or join a beginner’s group, for example, to get a feel of the hobby before committing heavily.Take a trip back in timeWhen you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? 20 If you wanted to be a football player, join a football team or coach some neighborhood kids. Childhood joys can easily develop into adult hobbies.A．Start smallB．Make a short listC．Everyone has some hobbiesD．But it isn’t easy to find your hobbyE．There is no such thing as one perfect hobbyF．The answer could point you toward an attractive hobbyG．So if someone invites you to join in an event, catch the opportunity二、完形填空I clearly remember that night many years ago.

广东省茂名市2023-2024学年高一下学期7月期末英语试题
广东省茂名市2023-2024学年高一下学期7月期末英语试题一、阅读理解Wan Zuocheng, 70, starts his day at 4 a. m. He boils a large amount of water every day to help the families of cancer patients with their cooking. He also prepares many pots of porridge (粥). His wife, 68-year-old Xion g Gengxiang, handles rice cooking. She cooks more than 10 pots of rice a day. They also have a special kitchen, which is a shared kitchen. Wan and Xiong buy more kitchen tools, so more people can cook in the kitchen at the same time.The special kitchen is located right next to Jiangxi Cancer Hospital. Over the past 20 years, it has become widely known as the “anti-cancer kitchen” for providing patients and their families with a convenient place to cook meals. The couple provides the use of their kitchen to the public at a very low price — only 1 yuan once.The kitchen was originally a breakfast stall (小摊). They used to cook youtiao, which was well-known in the neighborhood. One day in 2003, a young couple walked by and asked if they could cook food for their son in the kitchen. Their boy was suffering from bone cancer. He wanted to eat his mother’s cooking. Wan and Xion g let the young mother use their kitchen for free. Later, they had an idea that they could offer the kitchen to other families who wanted to make meals for their hospitalized relatives.In February 2021, Wan and Xiong received the Touching China Award 2020, which is an annual award that recognizes the country’s most inspiring role models in different aspects. Later that year, in November, they were also named “National Moral Models”. When asked why doing this, Wan said, “I want to help. I am willing to do it, and I’ll keep doing it as long as I can.”1．Why are there more kitchen tools in the special kitchen?A．To decorate the kitchen.B．To boil water while cooking meals.C．To cook a large amount of porridge.D．To enable more people to use them at once. 2．What can we learn about the “anti-cancer kitchen” from the second paragraph?A．It sells breakfast at a low price.B．It belongs to Jiangxi Cancer Hospital.C．It provides free service for cancer patients.D．It offers a place for those who need to cook.3．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning a young couple?A．To show how helpless they were.B．To compare with Wan and Xiong.C．To admire the young mother’s love.D．To tell the inspiration for the kitchen. 4．Which words can best describe Wan and Xiong?A．Kind and generous.B．Careful and wealthy.C．Independent and brave.D．Creative and intelligent.Recently, I had the opportunity to spend a few days at “Dongfeng Space City” near the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, where I was sent by the national newspaper to cover the launch (发射) of the Shenzhou-18 manned spacecraft. This experience provided me with a chance to learn about China’s space-themed tourism.The Space City is where the Chinese aerospace dream begins. In 1970, China’s first man-made satellite “Dongfanghong-1” was launched from the Dongfangho ng satellite launch site. In 2018, the Dongfanghong satellite launch site became a patriotic (爱国的) education base. The current launch site is called the “Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center”, and it is famous for being China’s only manned space launch site.For visitors, the quickest way to travel from Beijing to Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center is by flying to Jiayuguan Jiuquan Airport and then taking a four-hour drive to the city. The view through the car window reveals the vast Gobi Desert, with the sun casting its rays upon the “lonely” road. It is a landscape with little greenery and few buildings or other signs of human life.However, inside the Space City, you’ll find a whole new world: a park, a cinema, a clinic, a supermarket, hotels, restaurants, bakeries and clothing stores. There’s even a farmers’ market and a popular milk tea stand. Visitors to the Space City are often recommended to taste the “Aerospace Milk” and “Acrospace Yogurt”. Visitors can also taste grapes, watermelons, tomatoes, and other fruits and vegetables from the greenhouse at the launch site.Visitors have the impression that they’re in an ordinary Chinese town. It is only when you come across roads named after “Taikong” and “Yuzhou” that you truly understand the unique identity of this area. Local people have even designed the streetlights in the shape of rockets launching spacecraft. There is also a souvenir (纪念品) shop in the Space City where you can buy various models of rockets, satellites and astronauts.5．What may the author be?A．A news reporter.B．A tourist guide.C．A space scientist.D．A local governor.6．What does paragraph 2 tell us about the Space City?A．Its education base.B．Its origin of the name.C．Its location and tourism.D．Its history and present situation.7．What can visitors do inside the Space City?A．Enjoy sunset.B．Visit Gobi Desert.C．Taste local products.D．Buy streetlight models.8．From which section is the text probably taken?A．Education.B．Tourism.C．Sports.D．Culture.The world is familiar with artificial intelligence (AI) models such as ChatGPT. These models have raised global excitement and interest in AI. A next step in this journey is to design specific AI models for specific industries. For example, creating models to address development challenges such as climate change.Such specific AI models can be particularly useful for Asia and the Pacific region, which is easily affected by extreme weather events due to climate change. Users can create a model that apprises them of the chances of flooding or drought in a specific area at a given time. In the context of climate change, specific AI models can be used to speed up progress on climate action. They also can help adapt to the changing climate and reflect the overall impact of climate change across the planet. An Al model can be built through a series of steps that include defining its scope and purpose to establish clear objectives, and then preparing the training data and breaking it into smaller units.The advantage offered by specific models is that they have fewer requirements than other tools. They don’t require millions of dollars of initial funding, human resources and government support. It is possible to build a specific model regardless of whether you are going to develop it as an individual or on behalf of an organization. You can build a simple one using a laptop and a small dataset to train the model.AI, like other forms of technology, has weaknesses and risks. Users who develop their ownspecific model need to be aware that AI models are heavily dependent on data. Poor-quality data will result in poor-quality analyses.9．Which word can best replace the underlined word “apprises” in paragraph 2?A．Robs.B．Rids.C．Tells.D．Persuades. 10．Why are specific models better than other tools?A．They function better.B．They are smaller.C．They are smarter.D．They require less.11．What is the author’s attitude towards AI?A．Careful.B．Unclear.C．Doubtful.D．Content. 12．Which of the following could be a suitable title for the text?A．A New AI model — ChatGPT B．Specific AI Models in FutureC．The Impact of Artificial Intelligence D．The Advantage and Disadvantage of AIWater-splashing FestivalWater-splashing Festival (泼水节) is the most important festival for the Dai people in Yunnan Province.

Dabba is Indian word for ‘box,’ but it refers to all manner of containers, too. Dabbas are saved and reused again and again most of the time.When I was a kid, my mother cut no corners when it came to food, sparing no effort to cook the meals—after a full day at the office. The leftovers would inevitably(必然地) find their way into yoghurt dabbas.But just as every auntie cherished her dabbas, every uncle hated them. My own father, a generally easy-going man, carefully avoided the drawer of dabbas. When he felt annoyed at the dabbas, my mother would shoot him a look that would surely have killed a weaker man and place her dabba carefully back in its drawer. Occasionally my father would get fed up with the overflowing drawer and clear all the dabbas. But my mother would simply start the process of collecting them again.When I went away to university, my mom used to cook food and send it back with me with strict instructions to wash the dabbas and bring them home. But when I did so, I felt embarrassed with the eyes of my roommates on me. Eventually, I found my way to a big company and had a family of my own. Like my mother before me, I’m also the proud owner of an extensive dabba collection.They truly are the most useful of objects, with uses ranging from food storage to toys for my children. It is a source of a strange and indescribable comfort. When I married my husband, my mother was concerned. “You know, you come from very different backgrounds,” she said. Dealing with cultural differences is surely an adventure. But the other night, I heard my husband yelling in the kitchen, and the next morning, I found my dabbas in the recyclingbin. I narrowed my eyes a little as I fished them out, washed them up and replaced them in their drawer. I was practising my mother’s death stare.4．What did the the author’s mother mainly use her dabbas for?A．Making boxes.B．Cooking meals.C．Storing food.D．Collecting yoghurt.5．What can we infer from the author’s father’s attitude towards dabbas?A．The author’s mother was cruel to his father.B．Not everyone understands the meaning of dabbas.C．The author’s parents were annoyed with each other.D．The author’s father always threw away the mother’s dabbas.6．What did the author do after marriage?A．She followed in her mother’s footsteps.B．She washed the dabbas for her mother.C．She felt embarrassed when washing the dabbas.D．She brought the dabbas back home for her mother.7．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Dabbas—a Way of Recycling.B．Dabbas—a Source of Cultural Differences.C．Dabbas—an Approach to Cherishing Food.D．Dabbas—a Container to Share Food and Love.COVID-19 is just one example of a disease that has jumped from a wild animal to people. In hopes of preventing future outbreaks, scientists are working to understand what led to the jump, also known as a spillover event. A group working in Australia thinks it may have one answer: Keep wildlife well-fed.All animals carry germs. Some viruses don’t harm the animals in which they are typically found. That’s because the host species has encountered this virus so often that its immune system(免疫系统) has developed a way to keep the germ under control. But if this virus later finds its way into a new species, it may cause serious disease.From 1996 to 2020, Peel and her group tracked where bats spent their time. For the first six years, there were no spillover events. But starting in 2003, the team noticed the bats’ ecosystem was changing. Soon after, spillovers started to show up. Peel’s group linked theseevents to periods when the bats couldn’t find enough food.This happened in years that followed strong El Niño events. This climate event causes trees that normally flower in spring may now fail to do so. Hungry bats will then leave their forests in search of food. Some may end up near farms where they can infect horses and they may stay there until the following winter.But some spillovers happened even during non-El Niño years. The researchers suspect this might be due to changes in tree cover. Over the course of the study, large sections of forest were cut down for farming and housing. This reduced the number of trees that flower in winter. Without their main food source, hungry flying foxes shifted their behavior. Just as they did after El Niño years, they now spent more time near farms in search of food. It was after this shift that spillover events occurred.8．What makes the viruses relatively safe to the host animals?A．They are not affected by all viruses.B．They are more experienced.C．They are able to control the viruses.D．They always have enough food. 9．Apart from El Niño, which of the following factors is more likely to cause spillover events?A．Widespread forest clearing.B．Serious pollution in the air.C．Increase in food and water.D．Genetic changes in animals.A．Ignored B．Experienced C．Avoided D．Changed 11．What is more likely to be talked about next?A．Relationship between spillovers and El Niño.B．Impact of climate change on bat behavior.C．How to ensure enough food supply for wildlife.D．The history of spillover events in Australia.Organic farming(有机耕作) is a farming method that uses the natural techniques to grow crops and raise farm animals. This approach avoids the use of synthetic(合成的) chemicals, pesticides, and fertilizers, and instead relies on natural methods to promote healthy soil and crop growth.One of the key benefits of organic farming is its sustainability(可持续性). By avoiding the use of harmful substances, organic farmers are able to reduce their impact on theenvironment and protect the health of both the soil and local ecosystems. This also means that organic farming has a smaller carbon footprint than traditional farming methods, making it a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly option.In addition to its environmental benefits, organic farming also has important health benefits. By avoiding the use of pesticides and fertilizers, organic farmers are able to produce crops that are free from harmful chemicals. This can lead to a healthier diet and reduced risk of exposure to harmful substances.Moreover, organic farming can also have positive economic impacts. By supporting local farmers and promoting sustainable agriculture, organic farming can help to create more jobs and support local communities. Additionally, organic produce (农产品) is often sold at a higher price, which can provide financial benefits for farmers and help to promote sustainable agriculture as a good business model.However, there are also challenges associated with organic farming. Because organic farming relies on natural methods to control pests and promote growth, it requires more workers and demand more time than traditional farming methods. Additionally, organic farming may not always be as productive or efficient as traditional farming methods, which can make it more difficult for farmers to meet demand.Despite these challenges, many farmers and consumers are using organic farming as a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly way. As more people become aware of the environmental and health benefits of organic farming, it is likely that demand for organic produce will continue to grow. This, in turn, may help to promote the growth of sustainable agriculture and support the health of both people and the planet.12．What do we know about organic farming?A．It makes crops grow better.B．It produce lower quality crops.C．It uses natural techniques in farming.D．It uses fertilizers to promote healthy soil. 13．How do the farmers reduce footprint through organic farming?A．By avoiding the use of harmful substances.B．By using more sustainable synthetic chemicals.C．By increasing their impact on the environment.D．By studying both the soil and local ecosystems.14．Which of the following is the economic benefit brought to farmers by organic farming?A．Healthier diet to farmers.B．High demand for traditional produce.C．More job chances in other fields.D．Higher prices for organic produce. 15．What challenge does organic farming face?A．It is impossible to control pests.B．It needs more workers and time.C．The farmland cannot meet farmers’ demand.D．It has a negative impact on local ecosystems.二、七选五Like most people, you probably spend a lot of time sitting and gain weight.
