Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs to develop social and professional skills in a safe environment.The cafe was the idea of Pennsylvania mom Maureen Stanko, a teacher, fitness instructor, and musician, who was concerned about her son Nick, who has autism (孤独症) and food allergies, and what he would be able to do after graduation. In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about Nick’s future is what keeps Stanko up at night.Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who had dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together to make this a reality. Two years later, the So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe was born. It employed 63 people and 80 percent of them have some form of disability.The cafe is more than just a space to work; it’s also a place for people with disabilities and their families to dine. “We’d never even taken Nick to a restaurant before because we wouldn’t spend all this money to eat out to be completely stressed out,” Stanko said. “This cafe has taught Nick how to sit in a restaurant. And now we have a place to go, where if he stands up and starts hopping or clapping, nobody cares.”The inclusive cafe has made a real difference in people’s lives. One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, who is hearing impaired, said, “If you told me two years ago that I would be a server, I wouldn’t believe you. But now I have gained so much self-confidence. A lot of employees here have changed so much; it’s just mind-blowing.”4．Why did Stanko and Tyler Kammerle establish the cafe?A．To serve people with various abilities.B．To provide a place for family occasions.C．To instruct graduates in professional skills.D．To offer employment to youth with special needs.5．What was Stanko’s concern about taking Nick to a restaurant?A．The cost of dining out.B．The noisy customers in restaurants.C．The lack of an inclusive environment.D．The food allergies Nick is suffering from.6．How has working at the cafe affected Lauren Oppelts?A．She has taken to socializing.B．She has grown more positive.C．She has become experienced in cooking.D．She has recovered from her hearing disability.7．Which of the following best describes Stanko?A．Caring and responsible.B．Ambitious and devoted.C．Determined and sensitive.D．Tough and reliable.An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease — a condition where the heart’s arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood flow to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research.A study, published in the European Heart Journal, monitored everyday surroundings, including the quality of roads, buildings, and green spaces, and the role they play in determining heart health. Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. They found that these neighbourhood characteristics could account for 63% of the differences in heart disease risk from one community to another.The discovery stems from analysing more than half a million AI street view images across US cities, using computer vision to identify and interpret details that might go unnoticed by the human eye. The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods.“Undoubtedly, there is a vast amount of social, economic and environmental data set,” said one of the study's authors, Prof Sanjay Rajagopalan. “However, there still remain significant gap s in our knowledge regarding unique environmental aspects of data that are currently beyond human comprehension. This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable uniqueunderstanding of the physical and built environment.”By employing AI, researchers have been able to examine the details of neighbourhoods’ environment. The study employed computer vision technology, including applications used in medical imaging and autonomous driving, to identify details and then interpret them to make predictions or decisions.“We are getting to a place in human civilization where traditional approaches that have been used are rather limited and the use of AI to enhance human understanding is going to be critically important at solving complex problems,” Prof Rajagopalan said.8．What is the finding of the study?A．How people can prevent heart diseases.B．How environments affect heart health.C．How AI can reduce heart disease risks.D．How the heart's arteries are blocked. 9．What can the finding of the study help to do?A．Promote computer technology.B．Reduce air and water pollution.C．Design green neighbourhoods.D．Advertise for an AI company.10．Why was computer vision used in the study?A．The researchers had no environmental data.B．It had solved some environmentalproblems.C．People ignored the environment they live in.D．It helped people understand theenvironment.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．The development of AI for hospitals B．The medical use of a street view toolC．The insight into healthy neighbourhoods D．The link between the heart and environmentForests have been embraced as a natural climate solution, due to their ability to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots. But a new study confirms widespread doubts about the potential for most forests in the Western US to help control climate change.Published in Earth’s Future, the paper analyzed trends in carbon storage across the American West from 2005 to 2019. Led by Jazlynn Hall, a forest and landscape ecologist at Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the team found that throughout most of the region, climate changeand fires may be causing forests to store less carbon, not more.“There’s a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions,” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below 1.5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it’s changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets.”The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades. “These challenges have the potential to compromise carbon storage capacity and weaken our ability to mitigate climate change, Hah cautions.By providing a fire-new view of threats at landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site-specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复原力). They also identify the remaining areas with the lowest risk and highest potential to store carbon, such as the Pacific Northwest.“Our study develops new methods to carefully estimate forest-carbon storage at a regional level, track it over time, and find out the causes of changes over time,” said Hall. He expects the methods will be useful in monitoring carbon storage levels going forward, as well as assessing the carbon impacts of management efforts such as forest thinning and planned burning.12．What does the underlined phrase “soak up” in paragraph 1 mean?A．Put down.B．Take in.C．Bring up.D．Give out. 13．Why was the study conducted?A．To find the best forests for carbon storage.B．To promote forests’ carbon storage capacity.C．To assess the current situation of forests.D．To measure the carbon released into forests. 14．What can we say about the future trend of Western forests?A．Carbon loss will speed up.B．They will become more resilient.C．They will store more carbon.D．They will have no impact on climate. 15．What is the primary function of Hall’s framework for forest management?A．Predicting future forest growth rates.B．Identifying high- risk areas for protection.C．Mapping all the forests in the Western US.D．Helping managers adapt strategies to forests.I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. 16 Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned.17 I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words.So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. 18 See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in.Here is what makes teaching so great for the person doing the teaching. Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. 19 It pushes you to do what you are encouraging and teaching others to do. I am totally convinced this will, and does, work that way for everyone.What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. 20A．It’s our ability to teach other people.B．We just need to talk and teach others about it.C．Doing this has been changing and helping my life for years now.D．Please, think deeply about this and then put it into practice in any way you can.E．Be sure to write down your goals and objectives as well so you can stay on track.F．The knowledge you share, whether spoken or written, is like a truth drug for the mind. G．So, why not teach and share what you know and help yourself do better and better at these things?二、完形填空Five years ago, Anna Lee, a cultural worker from Washington, D．C．, bought a vase for $3.99 at a thrifty shop. She felt the vase was 21 to Mexico, a country she focuses on, and liked keeping it as a 22 .In January, Anna Lee 23 a business trip to Mexico. While at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, she was surprised to find vases that 24 resembled (像) the one she had bought for less than $4. Struck by the 25 , she sought advice from a 26 worker on handling artifacts from that era.Unsure they were 27 Mayan (玛雅人的) artifacts, she discussed them with someone in the museum officer. Upon returning home, Anna Lee 28 the Mexican Embassy, sending them photos and measurements of the vase. Embassy anthropologists verified (证实) it as a nearly 2, 000-year-old ceremonial urn (瓮) from the 29 Mayan civilization.Having known the 30 about the artifact, Anna decided to help 31 the artifact to its country. She safely transported the vase to the embassy, where Mexico’s Ambassador to the US eagerly waited to 32 it back to Mexico.Anna emphasized that returning the vase to Mexico held greater personal 33 than any potential financial gain. She stated that giving it back felt more fulfilling than 34 it for a significant sum. “It’s really important to recognize that some of these things, especially with such historical and 35 value to an entire country and people — you can’t really put a number on that,” she said.21．A．attached B．connected C．engaged D．exposed 22．A．partner B．style C．case D．reminder 23．A．went on B．got around C．set in D．picked up 24．A．merely B．properly C．closely D．rarely 25．A．generality B．popularity C．reality D．similarity 26．A．museum B．library C．transport D．campus 27．A．worthy B．authentic C．suitable D．advanced 28．A．invited B．admired C．witnessed D．contacted 29．A．unique B．powerful C．ancient D．independent 30．A．truth B．opinion C．event D．reason31．A．show B．address C．sell D．return 32．A．throw B．send C．hide D．relate 33．A．clue B．interest C．value D．dream 34．A．selling B．keeping C．enjoying D．sewing 35．A．legal B．traditional C．digital D．cultural三、语法填空阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式.CGTN, Updated20: 58, 01- May -2024, WednesdayChina’s Chang’e-6 lunar probe(探测器) is ready to be launched in two days after it completed a final systematic joint rehearsal (预演) on Wednesday.

高三九月月考英语试题
上海市实验学校2020-2021学年高三九月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、用单词的适当形式完成短文Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.About 100 years ago, one of the founders of modern linguistics, Ferdinand de Saussure, wrote that the relationship 1．the sounds we make and the concepts they express are arbitrary(任意的，随意的). Many have long agreed. But now the inherent(内在的) randomness of human language 2．(challenge) by a large new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 3．analyzed 100 basic words in 3,700 languages around the world. In short: Certain words tend to contain or omit certain sounds in a significant number of these languages, and the consistency is “stronger than we’d expect by chance.” The team of physicists, linguists, an d computer scientists from the US, Argentina and Europe took a “big data approach” to sixty two percent of the world’s languages. And one of 4．tells the Washington Post.Among their many findings is 5．the word for nose contains the sound “n” in more tha n 1,400 languages, 6．(range) from “nev” in Icelandic and “hana” in Japanese to “kon” in Sar and “naris” in Spanish. Ditto(同上，同前) the sound “s” in sand. The researchers don’t yet know why, although they’ve ruled out the idea of there 7．(be) one original la nguage. It’s not the first study 8．(suggest) a biological basis for the sounds we appoint to objects ---- something 9．(call) the “bouba/kiki” effect dates back to 1929, suggesting that most humans think the fake word “bouba” sounds like a rounded shape while the fake word “kiki” sounds spiky(带尖刺的).A separate researcher tells the Telegraph that some words may date back from 10．babies can first say, such as “mama”, but says the study “looked at too few words to make any firm conclusions.”二、选用适当的单词或短语补全短文Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.To many of us, the bilateral symmetry（左右对称）that characterizes the human face and the animal kingdom may be one of the first impressions we get of the world. If you reflect the left half of the face or body in a mirror, you obtain something that closely 11．the right half. Bilateral symmetry is so common that it could 12．be due to chance. If you think of the human body as a collection of some ten thousand trillion molecules, then there are countless ways to combine them into non-symmetrical shapes than into symmetrical ones. Why is it, then, that bilateral symmetry is so common? Given that all life on Earth slowly 13．through natural selection, the fact that we and many animals possess left-right symmetry, not, say, up-down or front-back symmetry, must have somehow 14．certain advantages. But how?We can understand at least some parts of this natural “engineering” 15．by considering some simple physical principles. First, on the surface of the Earth, the Earth’s gravity introduces a 16．difference between up and down. Animals had to be able to remain stable and to cope with their weight under Earth’s perpetual downward pull. The ability to move further enhanced the difference between top and bottom. On one hand, birds had to handle the aerodynamics of flying, and on the other, be able to handle landing. Land animals had to develop some “mechanical” appendages (in other words, legs) to allow them to 17．themselves efficiently.Animal locomotion was probably also 18．for the front-back asymmetry. Whether it was a bird, or a fish, having the sensory organs and the mouth in the front could mean the difference between finding lunch or missing it. The digestive and reproductive systems were pushed to the rear. Having eyes, ears, and noses in the front was also 19．for the avoidance of predators, and for the ability to explore an area before actually entering it. Life 20．that are fixed in one place or that move very slowly, such as trees or jellyfish, tend to have a different kind of symmetry, similar to that of a cone(球果) — they produce similar reflections in any mirror passing through their central axis.三、完形填空Like it or hate it, when Kim Kardashian wears something, people take notice. With the reality TV star wearing secondhand Azzedine Alaïa to Paris fashion week, secondhand JeanPaul Gaultier to a party and a secondhand 1990s Thierry Mugler gown to an award ceremony, it 21 change is happening. Who would have thought that Kardashian – a woman worth $350m (£270m)– would be making a case for sustainable fashion?As consumers become increasingly aware of the 22 impact of fashion, they are looking for a more sustainable way to shop. Could 23 secondhand be the answer? Vintage(经典复古风格), it seems, is increasingly 24 . High-end boutique Browns has also just launched the label One Vintage, which uses antique textiles to create new clothes. Octavia Bradford, the womenswear buyer for Browns, says: “25 is the loudest conversation in fashion right now.”A study shows that, last year, 64% of women were willing to buy pre-owned pieces compared with 45% in 2016 – and 26 , by 2028 13% of the clothes in women’s wardrobes will be secondhand. Fashion circularity, a new term referring to the recycled life of clothes, is 27 to reach $51bn in five years, up from the current $24bn, according to ThredUp’s annual resale report.Stella McClure, the founder of the online shop The Stellar Boutique, has noticed a28 . When she opened 20 years ago “there was still a 29 attached. But now (thankfully) The Stellar Boutique is not just acceptable –it’s cool and has completely 30 the fashion trends,” she says.Aside from an increased 31 of sustainability, vintage fashion fits neatly into the wider mood of the Instagram age, where authenticity and originality – not being seen in the same outfit as anyone else – are 32 . What better ways to stand out than to wear clothes few others are likely to own?Not 33 to sit back and watch others profit from their vintage items, some luxury labels are relaunching decades-old designs from their own archives. Last year, 34 , Dior brought back its saddle bag because of the attention it was getting in the vintage fashion market. However, for some, buying vintage will never feel quite right. “It’s really not my bag,” says Bates.There are obvious 35 –sizing isn’t uniform, and, she says: “You have to be so careful to look for holes and rips.”21．A．suggests B．maintains C．calculates D．advocates 22．A．cultural B．historical C．environmental D．emotional 23．A．distributing B．buying C．controlling D．decreasing24．A．in fashion B．in effect C．out of date D．under control 25．A．Originality B．Technology C．Profit D．Sustainability 26．A．legally B．appropriately C．likely D．luckily 27．A．required B．projected C．guaranteed D．warned 28．A．symptom B．field C．tradition D．shift 29．A．right B．label C．shame D．price 30．A．broken B．defined C．captured D．challenged 31．A．potential B．awareness C．lack D．power 32．A．reversed B．questioned C．ensured D．valued 33．A．considerate B．content C．stressful D．adventurous 34．A．for instance B．as a result C．by contrast D．in addition 35．A．expectations B．policies C．traps D．reminders四、阅读选择As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly sophisticated, there are growing concerns that robots could become a threat. This danger can be avoided, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell, if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks, it's necessary to translate our morals into AI language.For example, if a robot does chores around the house, you wouldn't want it to put the pet cat in the oven to make dinner for the hungry children. “You would want that robot preloaded with a good set of values,” said Russell.Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example, mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences, but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space, you wouldn't think that's the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines, if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to do sufficient testing and they've produced a system that will break some kind of taboo（禁忌).One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when presented with an unusual situation.If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has the opportunity to stop, send out beeps（嘟嘟声), and ask for directions from a human. If we humans aren't quite sure about a decision, we go and ask somebody else.The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe in moral, and how to create a set of ethical rules. But if we come up with an answer, robots could be good for humanity.36．What does the author say about the threat of robots?A．It may constitute a challenge to computer programmers.B．It accompanies all machinery involving high technology.C．It can be avoided if human values are translated into their language.D．It has become an inevitable peril as technology gets more sophisticated.37．What would we think of a person who invades our personal space according to the author? A．They are aggressive. B．They are outgoing.C．They are ignorant. D．They are ill-bred.38．How do robots learn human values?A．By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.B．By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.C．By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.D．By imitating the behavior of property brought-up human beings.39．What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?A．Keep a distance from possible dangers. B．Stop to seek advice from a human being. C．Trigger its built-in alarm system at once. D．Do sufficient testing before taking action.Recalculating the global use of phosphorus(磷), an important fertilizer element of modern agriculture, a team of researchers warns that the world's stocks may soon be in short supply and that overuse in the industrialized world has become a leading cause of the pollution of lakes, rivers and streams.Writing in the Feb. 14 edition of the journal Environmental Research Letters, StephenCarpenter of the University of WisconsinMadison and Elena Bennett of McGill University report that the human use of phosphorus, primarily in the industrialized world, is causing the widespread eutrophication of fresh surface water. What's more, the minable global stocks of phosphorus are concentrated in just a few countries and are in decline, posing the risk of global shortages within the next 20 years."There is a finite amount of phosphorus in the world," says Carpenter, one of the world's leading authorities on lakes and streams. "This is a material that's becoming rarer and we need to use it more efficiently."Phosphorus is an essential element for life. Living organisms, including humans, have small amounts and the element is crucial for driving the energetic processes of cells. In agriculture, phosphorus mined from ancient marine deposits is widely used to boost crop yields. The element also has other industrial uses.But excess phosphorus from fertilizer that washes from farm fields and suburban lawns into lakes and streams is the primary cause of the algae blooms that destroy freshwater ecosystems out off kilter and degrade water quality. Phosphorus pollution poses a risk to fish and other water life as well as to the animals and humans who depend on clean fresh water. In some instances, excess phosphorus sparks blooms of toxic algae, which pose a direct threat to human and animal life."If you have too much phosphorus, you get eutrophication," explains Carpenter of the cycle of excessive plant and algae growth that significantly degrades bodies of fresh water. "Phosphorus stimulates the growth of algae and weeds near shore and some of the algae can contain cyanobacteria(蓝菌), which are toxic. You lose fish. You lose water quality for drinking."The fertilizer fueled algae blooms themselves amplify the problem as the algae die and release accumulated phosphorus back into the water.Complicating the problem, says Carpenter, is the fact that excess phosphorus in the environment is a problem primarily in the industrialized world, mainly Europe, North America and parts of Asia. In other parts of the world, notably Africa and Australia, soils are phosphorus poor, creating a stark imbalance. Ironically, soils in places like North America, where fertilizers with phosphorus are most commonly applied, are already loaded with the element.Bennett and Carpenter argue that agriculture practices to better conserve phosphate within agricultural ecosystems are necessary to avoid the widespread pollution of surface waters.Phosphorus from parts of the world where the element is abundant, they say, can be moved to phosphorus deficient regions of the world by extracting phosphorus from manure, for example, using manure digesters.40．The word “eutrophication” (Line 4, Para.2) most probably means __________ . A．pollution B．excess of nutrientsC．increase of algae D．growth of bacteria41．Which of the following is not correct about the use of phosphorous?A．It is used in industry.B．It is used to increase crop yields.C．It is used to drive the energetic processes of cells.D．It is used only in small amounts in living organism42．According to the last paragraph, we learn that ________ .A．Environmental problems exist only in the industrialized countries.B．Agriculture practices should conserve phosphate within agricultural ecosystems. C．Phosphorus can be created by using manure digesters.D．Soils are not short of phosphorus in Africa and Australia.Recently, a coalition of business and advocacy groups from around Washington gathered to kick off a campaign to enact a carbon pricing program in the capital. Known as the Climate and Community Reinvestment Act of D．C．, the plan would place a new tax on all fossil fuels bought or sold, with the hope of ultimately discouraging the use of these polluting energy sources.The big-picture goal of this campaign is admirable: to address the ever-deepening crisis of humanity-driven climate chaos by dissuading the continued use of coal, oil and gas, the filthy substances rapidly warming our planet. But unfortunately, the approach — one based in a world of financial markets, trading schemes and enticing new public revenue streams — is deeply and inherently flawed. Simply put, carbon pricing is a false solution to climate change and a distraction from real, effective climate solutions we must urgently pursue.To date, there is scant(不足的) evidence to indicate that carbon taxes lower greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, the opposite is true. Recently Food & Water Watch reviewed the British Columbia carbon tax program, often cited by advocates as an example of success. From 2009 (the first full year of the tax) to 2014, emissions from taxed sources grew by 4.3 percent. And inthe seven years after the carbon tax took effect, total gasoline sales increased by 7.37 percent.Supporters of such plans like to focus on a deceivingly simple notion that increasing the price of a consumer good will automatically reduce its use. But this just isn’t the case when it comes to the purchase of necessities. People must heat their homes in winter, and they must commute to work, regardless of the cost.Those backing the D．C．carbon pricing plan like to note that revenue from the new tax would go toward investment in clean energy sources. But only 20 percent of the generated funds would be allocated in this manner. The rest would be divvied(分摊) up in tax breaks for businesses and rebates(回扣) for consumers, another factor undercutting the notion that increased costs up front would change consumer behavior in the long run.Meanwhile, fossil fuel giants such as ExxonMobil are increasingly coming out in support of carbon pricing. This should be cause for alarm for anyone concerned with stamping out the use of the dirty energy sources these corporations profit from. Exxon knows that carbon taxes will do little to change the business-as-usual dependence on oil and gas that it relies on to continue operating and enriching shareholders. Furthermore, corporations such as Exxon rightly view carbon pricing schemes as a means of diverting energy and interest from tougher regulations that might actually encroach on(侵犯) their business plans and bottom lines.Despite what many well-intentioned activists and community leaders want to believe, there is no convenient, market-friendly solution to our dire climate condition. There is only the hard truth that we must tackle the problem at its source: We must stop using fossil fuels, and soon. The latest science indicates that in order to avoid the worst effects of deepening climate chaos, society must transition completely to clean, renewable energy by 2035.43．Food &Water Watch found that _______ .A．carbon taxes could limit greenhouse gas emissionsB．taxing carbon emissions did not reduce pollutionC．carbon emissions grew at a lower rate than gasoline salesD．British Columbia carbon tax program achieved lasting effect44．Which of the following is true, according to Paragraphs 4 and 5?A．Consumers will use less of a good when its price increases.B．Carbon taxes will benefit the development of clean energy.C．Increased cost will do little to change the use of necessities.D．The dependence on fossil fuels will decrease automatically.45．Fossil fuel giants _________.A．are expressing dissatisfaction with carbon pricing schemesB．are reducing their dependence on dirty energy sourcesC．view clean renewable energy as their future source of profitsD．see carbon pricing as distraction from tough rules against them46．The most suitable title for this text would be __________.A．The Carbon Tax Fallacy(谬论) B．The Climate Change MythC．The Call for Clean Energy D．The Causes of Climate Chaos五、六选四Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.There’s no denying crows are smart. They can remember where food has been hi dden, recognize faces and craft tools. And, according to a new paper in Scientific Reports, some crows can even make those tools from memory. This skill may point to these clever corvids having a sort of culture of their own.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, worked specifically with New Caledonian crows. 47．But experts haven’t been able to make sure where the crows pick up their skills. A bird in one area can construct the same tool as another bird miles away —but there’s no evidence bird one watched bird two build the gadget in order to copy it. And New Caledonian crows don’t really have a language, either.48．Jelbert and her team had a hunch(预感) that it was because the birds were building based on the memory of tools the y’d seen.To test this, the group trained eight crows to place pieces of paper into a pseudo-vending machine (really just a wooden box) to get a treat. 49．Once they learned which sizes were rewarded, Jelbert and her team then gave the feathered participants large cards; the birds could fashion these into the coin sizes they’d picked up on earlier. Importantly, the crows didn’t get any sort of template(模板) when they were working with the big cards. And the birds snipped them into pieces that were similar in size to the coins they’d learned would get them treats.Given the lack of a template to copy, it seems the crows were able to construct mental images of the coins and use it to replicate a tool. 50．These birds can see something and notjust build it from memory, but potentially make improvements in their designs. “Most importantly,” the authors say in the study, “an improvement made by a crow during its lifetime could become part of the template learnt by subsequent generations, leading to an increase in tool complexity over time.” And this progression is a key component of cultural progression.Jelbert and her team recognize there’s still work to be done to see if their hypothesis is solid, like testing how long the crows can remember their mental images of the tools.A．So if they’re not building by imitation or carrying out instructions, how is this knowledge getting passed around?B．Crafting tool is a kind of culture, which can be passed down from generation to generation by crows.C．However, the crows o nly got treats when they popped in a paper “coin” of a certain size. D．These birds, native to the islands of New Caledonia east of Australia, are known for their ability to craft tools.E.Seeing this in action is important because it supports the idea that New Caledonian crows are capable of building — at least when it comes to crafting tools.F.Jelbert and her team then gave the crows paper to let them cut into proper size.六、概要写作51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.The New Dinner and a MovieDinner and a movie was a two-part affair. But increasingly, the two have blended into a single experience, allowing moviegoers to get fries and a beer while they watch the latest superhero blockbuster. Full-service theaters have become a Friday-night pastime as Americans are going to the movies.Dine-in cinemas are not altogether new. In the late 1980s, brothers Mike and Brian Mc Menamin opened one in Portland, Ore. A decade later, inspired by the Mc Menamins, Tim and Karrie League began pairing trendy beer with hits like The Craft at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin. But in recent years, the trend has expanded from marginal to mainstream. There are now 29 Alamo locations nationwide, from Omaha to El Paso.Full-service theaters appeal to a broader, more regionally diverse customer base. At Movie Tavern in Roswel, Ga., for instance, you can order popcorn seafood and a “Jumbo Jar” cocktailwhile watching Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. AMC, the biggest U.S. movie-theater company, launched Dine-In, where meals can be ordered with the push of a button.The rise in full-service moviegoing coincides with declining ticket sales across the industry more broadly. North American movie attendance in 2017 dropped to what appears to be a 27-year low. The downward tendency is the continuation of a 15-year trend. As younger audiences choose to consume content on their smartphones and the popularity of streaming rises dramatically, it’s no wonder that theater owners are seeking creative ways to stimulate customers off their couches. It’s working: despite a 2% decline in movie attendance over four years, AMC Dine-In achieved 4% growth in just two.Full-service theaters are not without complaints. Despite servers’ attempts to quiet down, many find them distracting when serving food. Besides, prices tend to get steeper once varieties of food enter the mix.But for those with the funds, the full-service theater offers reason enough to quit online movies.七、汉译英Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in brackets. 52．只要你有耐心，你总能在夜市淘到一些便宜货。

Then, I drove to meet my new piano teacher, Mark.I had worked for more than three decades as a busy English teacher with an endless stream of papers to mark and precious little time to experiment or learn new skills. I was determined to make up for all I had been missing. I wanted to finally master the piano and learn how to make music.I told Mark I had a specific concrete goal: to play Clair de lune by Claude Debussy, a piece I remember hearing from early childhood.Determined that there would be a day when I would totally master this piece, I set myself a deadline: I would perform before a gathering of friends on my 60th birthday. For months I did nothing but furiously (猛烈地) practise. When the day came, around 30 friends and relatives crowded into my dining room to hear me play, and aside from a few minor slips, I managed to pull it off without embarrassing myself. People clapped warmly. I made it. I had risen to a challenge, but I still didn’t feel that I was really “making music”.After that, my progress was painfully slow. I had come to hate hearing myself play music badly. I got no pleasure from the act of missing notes.I began focusing on what few things I could do: gardening and cycling. I came to understand that I didn’t have to be that man I’d always thought I ought to be. I could just do what feels good. So, after nearly five years of lessons, I quit.I still love music; I regularly go out to concerts. But now my piano does nothing more than sit silently in my dining room, displaying family photos and collecting dust. And I’m perfectly happy with that.4．Why did the author learn the piano after retiring from teaching?A．To impress his friends and relatives.B．To avoid the boredom of retirement.C．To start a new career as a concert pianist.D．To pursue a long-time passion for music. 5．What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A．The author attended a concert of piano music.B．The author performed successfully despite a few errors.C．The author felt embarrassed about his piano performance.D．The author quit his piano immediately after his 60th birthday.6．What does the author do with his piano now?A．He uses it for music lessons.B．He uses it for performance.C．He uses it for something unrelated to music.D．He plays it for personal enjoyment occasionally.7．Which of the following can best describe the author?A．Inner- directed and hardworking.B．Conventional and careless.C．Ambitious and kind-hearted.D．Lazy and pessimistic.When it comes to diatoms (硅藻类) that live in the ocean, new research suggests that photosynthesis (光合作用) is not the only strategy for accumulating carbon. Instead, these single-celled are also building biomass by feeding directly on organic carbon in the ocean.These new findings could lead researchers to reduce their estimate of how much carbon dioxide diatoms pull out of the air via photosynthesis, which in turn, could take a much closer look at the understanding of the global carbon cycle, which is especially relevant given the changing climate. The new findings were published in Science Advances on July 17, 2024.The team showed that the diatom Cylindrotheca closterium, which is found in oceans around the world, regularly performs a mix of both photosynthesis and direct eating of carbon from organic sources such as plankton (浮游生物) . In more than 70% of the water samples the researchers analyzed from oceans around the world, the team found signs of simultaneous photosynthesis and direct organic carbon consumption from Cylindrotheca closterium. The team also showed that this diatom species can grow much faster when consuming organic carbon in addition to photosynthesis. Furthermore, the new research hinted at the possibility that specificspecies of bacteria are feeding organic carbon directly to a large percentage of these diatoms living all across the global ocean. This work is based on a genome-scale metabolic modeling approach that the team used to reveal the metabolism of the diatom Cylindrotheca closterium.The team’s new metabolic modeling data support recent lab experiments suggesting that some diatoms may rely on strategies other than photosynthesis to intake the carbon they need to survive, thrive and build biomass.The UC San Diego led team is in the process of expanding the scope of the project to determine how widespread this non-photosynthetic activity is among other diatom species. 8．What’s new according to the research?A．The way of the diatom’s carbon accumulation.B．The impact of climate on diverse sea plants.C．The procedure of exploring carbon.D．The system of building biomass.9．What do the new findings make researchers more focus on?A．The causes of climate change.B．The grasp of the carbon cycle.C．The bad effect of photosynthesis on diatoms.D．A rough estimate of the amount of carbon dioxide.10．What do we know from paragraph 3?A．A large number of diatoms may feed on bacteria.B．The diatom lives on plankton.C．Water samples are key factors for the research.D．Diatom species grow faster with sufficient sunlight11．Which is the most suitable title for the text?A．Photosynthesis in Diatoms B．Plankton’s Role in OceansC．New Carbon Strategies in Diatoms D．Advances in Modeling DataAccording to a report in 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended that non-sugar sweeteners not be used as a means of achieving weight control or reducing the risk of diseases. The guideline came as a surprise. After all, the very purpose of non-sugar sweeteners-which contain little to no calories—is to help consumers control their weight and reduce their risk of disease by replacing sugar.In its report, the WHO cited evidence that long-term use of non-sugar sweeteners is associated with an increased risk of diabetes (糖尿病) and death. How is it that non-sugar sweeteners are linked to the negative health effects they’re supposed to fend off?The WHO made its recommendation after reviewing hundreds of published studies. The problem is that the overwhelming majority of these studies are observational. In such studies, subjects tend to self-report their food intake, which might not guarantee inaccuracy. More importantly, observational studies cannot determine cause and effect. Are non-sugar sweeteners causing diabetes, or are people at risk of diabetes simply more likely to consume them? Lastly, there are numerous variables that researchers can’t possibly control for in these studies that could influence the results.Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) tell a different story about non-sugar sweeteners. These studies control for variables by randomly assigning people to either a treatment or control group, and they can determine cause and effect. They show that sweeteners modestly benefit weight loss and help control blood sugar, without the negative effects seen in observational research. The downside of RCTs is that they are shorter in duration, often lasting just a few months. So negative effects could appear after longer use and we wouldn’t be able to tell from these RCTs.But we also can’t tell from observational studies, which only measure correlation and not causality (因果关系) . Changing the current situation might be hard, though. RCTs are expensive and require recruiting participants, setting up diet plans, and regularly measuring subjects’ health outcomes.For change to happen, it might need to start at the top, where science is funded Government agencies, which appropriate billions for research, should start prioritizing RCTs.12．What do the underlined phrase “fend off” probably mean in paragraph 2?A．Put out.B．Defend against.C．Keep up.D．Count on. 13．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．The WHO’s suggestions on observational studies.B．The strategies to decide cause and effect in conducting studies.C．The significance of controlling variables in observational studies.D．The limitations of the observational studies in the WHO report.14．What is a feature of RCTs according to the text?A．They cost little B．They tend to last long.C．They can control variables and determine causality.D．They require participants to self-report related data15．How should the government help RCTs?A．By making appropriate plans B．By providing financial supportC．By raising people’s awareness of health D．By founding more related governmentagenciesTo make science’s stories more concrete and engaging, it’s important to use some effective strategies. Here are four of them. Put people in the storyScience’s stories often lack human characters. 16 . Characters can be also people affected by a scientific topic, or interested in learning more about it. Besides, they can be storytellers who are sharing their personal experiences.17People often think of science as objective and fair. But science is actually a human practice that continuously involves choices, missteps and biases (偏见) . If you explain science as a course, you can walk people through the sequence of how science is done and why researchers reach certain conclusions. 18 . And they can also stress the reason why people should trust the course of science to provide the most accurate conclusions possible given the available information. Include what people care aboutScientific topics are important, but they may not always be the public’s most pressing concerns. In April 2024, a polling company found that “the quality of the environment” was one of thelowest-ranked priorities among people in the US. The stories about the environment could weave in connections to higher-priority topics. 19 . Tell science's storiesScientists, of course, can be science communicators, but everyone can tell science’s stories. When we share information online about health, or talk to friends and family about the weather, we contribute to information that circulates about science topics. 20 . Think about all of a story’s characteristics - character, action, sequence, scope, storyteller and content - and how you might incorporate them into the topic.A．Explain science as a processB．Shoot attractive short science videosC．Scientists themselves can actually become ideal onesD．This practice is to stress why the content is importantE．You can tell growth stories of remarkable teenage scientistsF．Science communicators can emphasize how science is conductedG．You may as well borrow features from stories to strengthen your message二、完形填空In 2018, Molly Baker unfortunately lost her husband in a severe skiing accident. She was 21 . In the first several weeks after his passing, her friends and family 22 a great deal of support. But after a while, the cards and meals started to 23 . “People had to get back to their normal 24 . And so things kind of dropped off,” Baker recalled.That was when one of Baker's friends, Carla Vail, thought up a way to 25 the help for an entire year. She called it the “Calendar Girls”. V ail gathered the names of 31 of Baker's friends who wanted to help, and 26 each friend a particular day. Vail also gave Baker the names on the 27 , so Baker could know what to 28 each day.“And what that looked like for them was that on that day, they would reach out to me in some 29 ways—maybe via text, or a card,” Baker said.Looking back, Baker feels that Vail's 30 was essential to helping her cope with her husband's death, because she was 31 at that time.“A lot of people are really uncomfortable around 32 ,” Baker said. “So what they do is, instead of doing something, that they 33 do nothing. It was nice to have that ‘Calendar Girls’ setup.”Today, Baker tries to do something similar for her friends going through 34 . In hard times, she knows how 35 it is to have something to look forward to every day. 21．A．cautious B．unconscious C．desperate D．impassive 22．A．extended B．demanded C．announced D．assumed 23．A．pass down B．show up C．break up D．slow down24．A．exercise B．routine C．diet D．growth 25．A．resist B．continue C．explain D．test 26．A．ordered B．sent C．owed D．assigned 27．A．furniture B．file C．calendar D．Internet 28．A．expect B．absorb C．propose D．define 29．A．rare B．strange C．specific D．generous 30．A．curiosity B．thoughtfulness C．ambition D．toughness 31．A．innocent B．optimistic C．tolerant D．lonely 32．A．panic B．evidence C．failure D．grief 33．A．simply B．hardly C．skillfully D．secretly 34．A．distraction B．addiction C．loss D．annoyance 35．A．amusing B．valuable C．astonishing D．universal三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Their mothers，watch them closely for fear that the children will fall off their bikes. The children are ready to learn how to ride.Rachel Varn still remembers how she felt riding a bicycle for the first time. Now her job is helping children experience that moment. Rachel Varn left her job of selling bicycles to become a trainer for bicycle riding last year.She founded Pedal Power Kids to teach bicycle education.Before starting a ride, she teaches the children how to make sure the bicycles are in good condition for safe use. She calls it “the ABC quick check. ” As is for air，she explains.“We have to check our tires before we ride.” We want to make sure our brakes work before we find ourselves on the top of a hill about to go down.And C is for chain.She says the chain must be clean.The rest of the training is more fun. The children learn riding skills,from balance and pedaling to turning,starting and stopping.And they learn to keep their eyes up and look ahead while riding. Varn says many children struggle to do this, They look down at the pedals (踏板）instead. She adds, “Obviously that doesn't allow them to see wha's going on around them,and it also doesn't allow them to turn properly.”Yarn says watching where you are going helps you turn easier.Learning to ride a bicycle can open a whole new world to children. It gives them asense of success and freedom. They become more sensitive to their surroundings and better able to make safe，smart decisions going from one place to another.Varn’s goal is to get more children on two wheels. Since starting Pedal Power Kids last year，Varn has helped around 250 new riders.24. How do the mothers feel when the children are ready to learn riding?A. Confident.B.Nervous.C. Excited.D.Relaxed.25. What is “the ABC quick check” aimed to do?A.To check if bikes are in safe condition for use.B.To check if the tires are safe for them to use.C. To make sure the brakes work.D. To check whether the chain is clean.26. What will make it easier to turn the corner when riding a bike?A.Stopping to look around.B.Looking down at the pedals.C.Looking where they are going.D.Keeping their eyes up and looking up.27. What benefit can riding a bicycle bring according to the passage?A. It opens a new world to the mothers.B. It gives children a sense of achievement.C. It helps children stay away from video games.D. It makes children familiar with the surrounding.3.（8分）CHuman demands for natural resources have doubled in less than 50 years and are now beyond what the earth can provide, a report warned. If humans carry on like this, we will need two earths by 2030. The population of wildlife has fallen by 60% in thirty years.The report said British people are consuming (消耗) far more than the earth can deal with. If everyone lived such a lifestyle, humans would need 2.75 planets to survive. People are now living lifestyles which would require 1.5 planets, though there are great differences between rich and poor nations.Researchers studied the global change in land use and water consumption. The UK comes 31st in a list of countries based one “ecological footprint (生态足迹)” that measures howmuch land and sea each person needs to produce the resources they consume and to absorb (吸收) the wastes. The UK has fallen down from 15th place in the last report two years ago to 3lst place, but the WWF believes it is an increas e in other countries’ efforts rather than a reduction in the UK’s use of resources.Ireland has the 10th highest ecological footprint, while the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Denmark, Belgium and the US are the five worst countries for over-consumption of resources. The study suggests if the expected global population of 9.2 billion in 2050 were to eat a Malaysian diet, 1.3 planets would be needed but if everyone were to eat an Italian diet, humans would need almost two planets. Those countries that can provide the highest quality of life using the lowest amount of resources will not only serve the global interest, but will be the leaders in a resource-limited world.28．We will probably need __________earths if we follow the British lifestyle.A. 1.3B. 2.75C. 2D. 1.529．What do we know about “ecological footprint ”?A. It has something to do with human demands for resources and their wastes.B. It is used to produce the resources and absorb the wastes.C. We can know the total amount of resources on the earth through it.D. It is about changes in land use and water consumption across the globe.30．The WWF believes that_________.A. the earth won’t be able to meet human needs after 50 years.B. the UK has possibly not reduced the use of resources over the past two years.C. Ireland has a lower ecological footprint than the UK.D. there are no big differences in lifestyle between rich and poor nations.31．It can be learned from the text that Malaysia_________A. has a larger population than Italy.B. consumes fewer resources than Italy.C. would need almost two planets.D. has the highest quality of life.4.（8分）DAstronauts traveling in space meet forms of radiation (辐射) that are uncommon on Earth. Some of the radiation has been shown to be harmful to human health, which is linked to cancers and heart problems. Yet a new American study had a different finding.Researchers studied nearly 60 years of health records and other data (数据)about astronauts from the United States. They then compared the data to the information about a group of athletes, who receive good health care and are in good health.The result shows that neither group has higher rates of dying at a young age. In fact, both groups generally live longer than the other Americans.Astronauts are usually well-educated, earn more money and are in better physical condition. Some earlier research linked these to astronauts’ lower risk of early death.However, they might ignore the physical requirements of this job. In fact, there has not been much research on whether astronauts show what is known as the “healthy worker effect”. This effect leads people with the work of space travelling to have fewer medical problems than those who are not working in this field, said Robert Reynolds, a member of the study team.Reynolds said, “The problem has always been to understand if astronauts are as healthy as they would be if they had never gone to space. This means we have to find a group that is comparable on several important factors(因素).” Considering the similar physical requirements, a group of athletes are selected.As the result suggests, being exposed (暴露) to radiation doesn't lead to an early death for astronauts.“Diet and physical exercise also set astronauts and athletes apa rt from the rest of the population,” said Reynolds. “A job requiring physical fitness can add to the healthy worker effect. Even for the other people, remaining or becoming physically active and keeping a well-balanced diet greatly improve overall health and well-being, thus making successfully becoming older possible.”32．What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean?A. Some forms of radiation are common on Earth.B. Some radiation is not harmful to human health.C. Astronauts may have other health problems.D. Astronauts’ health won’t be affected by radiation.33.Why do astronauts have a lower risk of early death according to the study?A. They are well protected from radiation.B. They have better knowledge about health.C. They are richer to afford better medical care.D. They need to stay healthy because of their job.34．Why are athletes chosen as a comparative group in the study?A. They work in different fields.B. They both need to be healthy enough.C.

In many regions of the country, people spend hours getting to the nearest hospital.Driven by a strong sense of urgency to lend a hand, Boateng established his non-profit organization, the OKB Hope Foundation. In 2021, he turned a van into a mobile doctor’s office and started bringing health care directly to those in need.A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in Ghana and provide free routine medical care. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork as well as provide medications.Since it was established, the mobile clinic has served more than 4,000 citizens across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care and has got much praise. “I am very impressed by the service they provide, and that is the best chance for us rural people to get the treatment we want,” said Abraham, one of Boateng’s neighbors.Boateng’s organization has also trained 20 volunteers to serve as local health advocates. They check people’s vital signs, such as blood pressure and glucose (葡萄糖) levels, and provide the medical team with timely data for assessing how to move forward with care and treatment, especially for those whose health is at risk.In the future, Boateng wants to broaden the reach of his efforts to deliver medical services, not only to Ghana’s remote regions but also to other nations across the globe. “I believe that our model can be copied in Sub-Saharan Africa,” he said. “So, the goal is to really develop strategic partnerships and get additional mobile health vans for the communities or the regions that we want to serve.”4．What motivated Boateng to launch the OKB Hope Foundation?A．The dream of impressing his family members and neighbors.B．The hope of creating jobs for medical professionals in Ghana.C．The barrier to basic health care in his community.D．The drive to raise people’s awareness of health.5．Why does the author mention Abraham in paragraph 4?A．To show the mobile clinic has served many people.B．To imply the positive impact of the mobile clinic.C．To judge the service provided by the mobile clinic.D．To describe the current situation of the citizens.6．What role do the local health advocates play?A．They assist patients to get their medicine.B．They help the doctors to analyze data.C．They keep the medical facilities in good condition.D．They examine the patients before further treatment.7．What is Boateng’s long- term vision for the OKB Hope Foundation?A．To expand the mobile clinic service beyond his country.B．To work with other nations to promote his organization.C．To establish a national health insurance system in Ghana.D．To build a large hospital in every rural community in Ghana.Babies less than a year old can combine simple concepts into complex ideas, showing that creativity begins in babyhood. According to new research at the Central European University (CEU), babies are not only capable of creative thinking well before starting to speak, but this sort of thinking may be essential for language acquisition (习得).In the study, the researchers set out to explore the origins of human creativity and productive thinking to try to find out how people arrive at completely new thoughts and ideas. The basic mechanism for doing this is taking familiar concepts and combining them into new structures, but little is known about how early in life these abilities can be used.The researchers found that babies were able to very quickly learn new words that depict small quantities — an impressive achievement — and combine these spontaneously (自发地) with familiar words to fully understand a phrase.In the study, the researchers started by teaching the babies two new words: “mize”, to mean “one”, and “padu”, to mean “two”. Then the babies were asked to combine these new number words with different object names, for example, to identify “padu ducks” from among a group of images.By teaching new words, the researchers were able to test the babies’ ability to combine concepts in real time, rather than simply recall combinations of words that they already knew from previous experience. By using eye-tracking technology to monitor where the babies look, the researchers were able to show that the babies could successfully combine the two concepts to understand what they were being asked about.Lead researcher, Dr Barbara Pomiechowska at the CEU, said, “For babies, this ability to combine different concepts is likely to help not only to interpret the complex language input, but also to learn about different aspects of the physical and social world.”8．What can we know about babies’ creative thinking?A．It develops after babies’ language skills.B．It determines babies’ intelligence.C．It is key to language learning.D．It will disappear with time.9．What is the primary goal of the study?A．To assess babies’ capability of creative thinking.B．To study the way new thoughts and ideas are formed.C．To find out how many new words babies can learn.D．To explore the origins of babies’ language acquisition.10．What does the underlined word “depict” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Describe.B．Demand.C．Replace.D．Compare. 11．How did the researchers test babies’ concept combination?A．By tracking their physical actions.B．By measuring their brain activity.C．By observing their eye movements.D．By analyzing their language ability.The possibility of hydrogen-powered flight means greater opportunities for fossil-free travel, and the technological advances to make this happen are moving fast. New studies from Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden, show that almost all air travel within a 750-mile radius (1,200 km) could be made with hydrogen-powered aircraft by 2045, and with a novel heat exchanger currently in development, this range could be even further.“If everything falls into place, the commercialization of hydrogen flight can go really fast now. As early as 2028, the first commercial hydrogen flights in Sweden could be in the air,” says Tomas Grönstedt, professor at Chalmers University of Technology.Some of these technological advances can be seen inside the Chalmers wind tunnels, where researchers test airflow conditions in cutting-edge facilities. Here, more energy-efficient engines are being developed that pave the way for safe and efficient hydrogen flight for heavy-duty vehicles.Heat exchangers are a vital part of hydrogen flight, and they are a key part of the technological advances taking place. To keep the fuel systems lightweight, the hydrogen needs to be in liquid form. This means that the hydrogen is kept supercool in the aircraft, typically around -250 degrees Celsius. By recovering heat from the hot exhausts of the jet engines, and by cooling the engines in strategic locations they become more efficient. To transfer the heat between the supercool hydrogen and the engine, novel types of heat exchangers are needed.To meet this challenge, researchers at Chalmers have been working for several years to develop a completely new type of heat exchangers. The technology takes advantage of hydrogen’s low storage temperature to cool engine parts, and then uses waste heat from the exhaust gases to preheat the fuel several hundred degrees before it is injected into the combustion chamber (燃烧室).12．What may be an effect of hydrogen-powered flight mentioned in the text?A．Making air travel more affordable.B．Reducing air pollution significantly.C．Increasing the speed of aircraft sharply.D．Providing more comfortable flights. 13．What is Tomas’ attitude towards the future of hydrogen-powered flight?A．Unfavorable.B．Dismissive.C．Unclear.D．Positive. 14．What is the main function of the novel type of heat exchangers?A．To cool the hydrogen to its liquid state.B．To release heat from the engines to the air.C．To increase the efficiency of the jet engines.D．To help waste heat get into thecombustion chamber.15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Key to Hydrogen-Powered Flight: Heat Exchanger TechnologyB．The Future of Fossil-Free Travel: Hydrogen-Powered FlightC．Taking Hydrogen-Powered Flight: Overcoming More ChallengesD．Hydrogen-Powered Flight: Ready for Take-off with New AdvancesIf you’re shy with social anxiety, here are some ways for you to make friends.16When you have social anxiety, you may second -guess the things you say or assume everyone is judging you. To manage your anxiety and start making friends, try to put those negative thoughts to rest. Swap out them with positive thoughts so that you can get back to the conversation at hand and really make a connection.Face your fears one step a time.It’s okay if you’re not ready to go to a massive party by yourself right off the bat. Instead, try making small but meaningful steps forward, such as identifying some goals you’d like to hit.17 Gradually, you’ll notice that the more you face your fears, the more comfortable you’ll be talking with new people.Accept any social invitation that comes your way.18 It may be tough at first, but making friends involves taking some risks and stepping out of your comfort zone. If someone invites you to hang out or go to an event and you’re at all interested in being their friend, seize the opportunity and join them!Initiate plans and ask people to hang out.Show people that you want to get to know them better. While this might seem challenging, remember that part of making connections with others involves taking the initiative to make plans yourself. You never know, your new neighbors, coworkers, and classmates may also be shy oranxious. 19Try to keep an open mind about new people when first making friends.You might think you don’t have anything in common with someone, but they may surprise you once you get to know them. If you’re not feeling it or you start to get super anxious during the hangout, don’t be too hard on yourself. 20 And don’t forget to congratulate yourself for making progress and keep trying!A．Try to spend time with people even if it makes you nervous.B．Replace your negative thoughts with positive ones.C．Be aware of the harmful effect of negative thoughts.D．Then, you can push yourself to achieve them each day.E．They’ll be happy to hear that you want to spend time with them.F．Being shy does prevent you from taking opportunities to make friends.G．It’s okay to politely excuse yourself and thank them for their company.二、完形填空Mason Branstrator had always been an athlete, but three years ago, his active lifestyle changed.“I was going for downhill skiing as usual, but this time, it was different,” Mason, an experienced skier who 21 the slopes (斜坡) in his hometown, said. “ ‘I’ m going a little fast.’ And that was the last thing I remember.”That accident 22 left him paralyzed (瘫痪的) from the waist down.

高三9月月考（英语）（考试总分：100 分）一、阅读理解（本题共计1小题，总分15分）1.（15分）Too much screen time for kids can lead to poor health the American Heart Association (AHA) says. 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. Then with a thankful heart , he went to sleep on a pile of clean hay Mrs. Smith had prepared for him.The next morning, the kind woman cooked him a warm breakfast. She also gave him a small sum of money to help him travel farther. As he left her house, he thanked her for her kindness, and she prayed for him.Ten years went by and no one remembered what had happened on that cold windy night except one person.Paragraph 1：One morning Mrs. Smith received a letter inviting her to come to London. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ ________________Paragraph 2：Mrs. Smith's heart was filled with wonder and she burst into tears._________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________答案一、阅读理解（本题共计1小题，总分15分）1.（15分）1.
