第I卷（选择题）一、阅读理解Central ParkExplore Central Park, one of the largest city parks in the world and one of the most famous symbols of New York. Let’s have a look at its main sights.Central Park is New York’s largest city park and one of the biggest in the world, with an area of 843 acres (about 3.4km2). This park is home to man-made lakes, waterfalls, grass and wooded areas. You will also find the Central Park Zoo, among other attractions in this greenspace of New York.Besides being the city’s primary green lungs, Central Park is also a favorite spot for many New Yorkers. It is perfect for sunbathing, going for walks, or doing any outdoor sports. Something that we found curious is seeing so many people running with their babies in prams (婴儿车).On Foot or by BicycleTo get to know some of the wildest parts of Central Park we suggest walking. However, to get a general feel for the whole park, the best thing to do is hire a bicycle and enjoy the scenery.If you decide to hire a bike, you will find lots of bike rental stores around Central Park that are not very expensive.Open TimeFrom 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends.From 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays.PriceEntry to the Park is free. But if you visit some parts like Central Park Zoo, you need to buy a ticket.TransportSubway: Line 5, 6, 7, A, B, C and D．Bus: Line M1, M2, M3, M4 and M10.Nearby placesMetropolitan Museum of Art (447 m)Guggenheim Museum (564 m)American Museum of Natural History (688 m)Whitney Museum of American Art (1 km)The Frick Collection (1.3 km)1．What can we learn about the Central Park from the text?A．It is home to lakes and waterfalls.B．It is perfect for doing outdoor sports.C．It is the largest city park in the world.D．It is the most famous symbol of New York.2．Which one of the following things is free?A．Hiring a bicycle. B．Entrance to Central Park.C．Visiting Central Park Zoo. D．Going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. 3．Where can we find this text?A．In a science report. B．In a geography book.C．In a fashion magazine. D．In a travel guide.Peter Damon produces about 30 paintings a year and sells them for between US$250 and US$1,500. That’s not enough to make ends meet, but it has made him whole again. He lost both arms in an accident.“Having this skill that even normal people find difficult was something that really helped me and made me feel like I fit in more in the world,” Damon said.He was a worker in a car factory. One day when he was working, there was a gas explosion (爆炸), killing one worker and injuring him.“I lost my right arm above the elbow, about three inches above the elbow, and my leftabout six inches below,” he explained.“How am I going to make a living and take care of my family? I had always worked with my hands,” he said.Then with a simple little drawing, a new future opened up for him.“I thought it was wonderful in a way,” Damon said. “Something was telling me to focus on this and everything will be alright.” Damon doesn’t have a perfect prosthetic arm (假肢)—just a hook (钩子), which he finds works best.He and his wife Jen run True Grit Art Gallery in Middleboro, Massachusetts, where he shows the works of local artists. With his disability check from the government, he can afford to be an artist. He is a man doing what he wants with his life, a nd doesn’t look at his situation as a hard time.“I don’t see it that way,” Damon said. “Suffering an injury like this has a way of making you focus on what’s important in life.”He believes his best work is still ahead of him. But with his pictures of simple American scenes, Damon has already produced his best work.4．How did Damon lose his arms?A．A gas explosion injured his arms.B．He was attacked when he was driving a car.C．His arms were trapped by a worker by accident.D．He was knocked down by a car when he was working.5．What do we know about Peter Damon when he started taking up painting from the text? A．His hope for life was brought back.B．He felt a lot of pressure at the beginning.C．He didn’t earn enough to support his family.D．His paintings were so expensive that few people wanted to buy them.6．What is Damon’s attitude towards his suffering?A．Wonderful. B．Positive.C．Pitiful. D．Uncertain.7．What is the main idea of the passage?A．Winners do what losers don’t want to do.B．Nothing is impossible if you try your best.C．God closes a door and another will open for you.D．Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.Ask any new college graduate about his immediate goals, and it is likely that he will tell you he wants a job. But it turns out that today’s students are not going to be satisfied with any job. According to the latest survey, making a difference through their work is essential (必要的) to young people’s happiness.The survey found that 72 percent of graduating college seniors believe being able to have a positive social influence through their work is essential to their happiness. Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15-percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own.Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates, echoing the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.One reason for the emphasis (强调) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to real-world problems. Students are used to discussing important social issues (问题) with their friends and professors, and doing something about them in class or through volunteer activities. Once students develop those habits, they don’t shut them off when graduation rolls around. 8．What does the underlined word “echoing” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Learning . B．Repeating.C．Believing. D．Creating.9．What is one of the reasons for the emphasis on students wanting to improve the world? A．The habits students develop in society.B．The appearance of important social issues.C．The encouragement of the culture of colleges.D．The effect parents’ education has on their children.10．What can you learn from the passage?A．Young people will surely gain happiness if they can make a difference in their work. B．Less than half of the college seniors will take a pay cut to work with the same values. C．Most college graduates believe it important to have a positive social influence in work.D．Female graduates are all putting more social influence in first place than male graduates. 11．Which could be the best title for the passage?A．Female Students Are Concerned about SocietyB．Young People’s Happiness Doesn’t Depend on MoneyC．Graduates Become More Interested in Challenging JobsD．Many Graduates Would Take a Pay Cut to Make a DifferenceDid you ever have to say “no” to somebody? Such as a classmate who asks to go to lunch with you? New research suggests that, at least socially, a rejection (拒绝) should not include an apology. In other words, saying you are sorry does not make the person being rejected feel any better. In fact, it might make the rejected person feel worse. That is surprising. Many people consider it to be good manners to say they are sorry when they turn down a request.Gili Freedman is doing some related research at Dartmouth College. For her research, she asked over 1,000 people to respond to different examples of social rejection. In one example, the researchers asked people for their reaction (反应）after a person named Taylor asked to join a co-worker who went out to lunch every Friday. And Taylor was told “no”. But in some cases, the person rejecting Taylor offered an apology. In other cases, the people doing the rejection did not say they were sorry. People were asked how they would feel if they were being turned down, just as Taylor was. Most said they would be more hurt by a rejection with an apology than a rejection without an apology.Freedman said the reason is that apologies make people feel like they need to say that the rejection was okay— even when they felt like it was not okay. Rejection without an apology lets them express their feelings of disappointment, hurt or anger more easily. Freedman also said that an apology often makes the person doing the rejection feel better—even as it makes the person being rejected feel worse.Her research deals only with social communication. A business situation might be very different. “If a manager rejects a job interviewee or a boss must tell an employee that he or she is being fired from a job,” Freedman said, “reactions to apologies may be different.”12．Why do people say they are sorry when they express rejection?A．Because they think it is more polite.B．Because they think it helps them express their dislike better.C．Because they think apologies are the basis of communication.D．Because they think it sounds more comfortable for the listener.13．In Gili Freedman’s research, over 1,000 people ________.A．rejected others without an apologyB．offered an apology when rejecting othersC．would be more hurt by a rejection with an apologyD．were asked to answer the question in different situations14．What role does an apology play in rejection?A．It makes the rejection more acceptable.B．It makes a good impression on the listener.C．It makes the communication more pleasant.D．It makes the person doing the rejecting feel better.15．What will be mentioned next according to the last paragraph?A．The effect of an apology during a rejection.B．Gili Freedman’s research on business situations.C．A rejection with an apology in a business situation.D．The difference between a social situation and a business one.二、完形填空It happened when our grandchild, Anne, was three years old. My husband, Paul, asked her if there was anything she wanted to plant in our garden. She had an answer—Fritos (油炸玉米饼).“Anne, Fritos might not 16 in this soil,” he said. But Anne looked at her grandfather and said that if the other 17 could grow, so would Fritos. Paul 18 this in the simplest way possible. He sent Anne running to the house for Fritos.That evening, I asked Paul, “Are you 19 ?”“She will forget it,” he 20 . The next day, Anne asked again. To gain time, Paul said it would 21 two weeks for Fritos to come out. That should be plenty of time for her to forget, he thought.For the next two weeks, she arrived every evening to 22 her “Frito land”. Anne grew more 23 . But with each passing day, Paul became more and more 24 . By the 13th day, he had 25 a plan, and the next morning we began to work.We planted two plants where the Fritos were 26 . Then we began the difficult task of tying Fritos around the leaves of the plants. At last, that was quite a 27 off our mind. Anne ran straight to the garden as 28 . We were shocked when she shouted, “Grandpa! They’re up! The Fritos came up!”The story was repeated several times. When Anne was in second grade, it was finally29 until the day her teacher talked about the topic of 30 . As part of the lesson, the teacher asked each child to 31 something that grows in a garden. You can 32 what Anne said!Anne’s paren ts 33 it was time to tell the truth. Their daughter sat very still while they talked, and when they finished, she remained 34 . Suddenly, Anne burst out 35 and said, “That’s the best joke Grandpa ever played on me.”16．A．exit B．grow C．make D．work 17．A．animals B．vegetables C．families D．fruits 18．A．dealt with B．made up C．cut down D．took away 19．A．kind B．humorous C．crazy D．foolish 20．A．questioned B．doubted C．ignored D．promised 21．A．pay B．spend C．cost D．take 22．A．check B．move C．decorate D．value 23．A．lonely B．excited C．beautiful D．smart 24．A．frightened B．shocked C．worried D．puzzled 25．A．come across B．picked up C．broken down D．worked out 26．A．swept B．burnt C．tied D．buried 27．A．peace B．thought C．weight D．anger 28．A．normal B．usual C．ordinary D．common 29．A．forgotten B．forgiven C．discussed D．punished 30．A．gardening B．working C．sighting D．painting 31．A．buy B．plant C．name D．sell 32．A．order B．judge C．guess D．offer 33．A．managed B．realized C．imagined D．wondered 34．A．brave B．afraid C．popular D．silent 35．A．laughing B．crying C．shouting D．burning第II卷（非选择题)三、七选五Do you have a place you’ve always wanted to visit? If the answer is yes, have you ever considered taking a trip alone there just for a few days?36．Although seeing the world on their own has always been a dream in their hearts since childhood, most people have repeatedly been told that the outside world is dangerous. The thought of going on a trip alone excites and terrifies them at the same time. Few end up stepping out of their comfort zone and going on meaningful adventures.It is normal to have some trouble traveling alone. 37．For example, being alone on the road, you might have to ask strangers to take your photo wherever you go. If you join a tour halfway, you may be asked why you don’t have friends or family around. 38．First, traveling alone gives you a good opportunity to do everything you wish to do without worrying about others’ needs and wants. If you want, you can read on a bench beside a river for the whole afternoon without being disturbed (打扰). You are free to walk around on different streets. 39．You can also remove that dull daily routine (常规) that always makes you feel tired.If you make good use of it, traveling alone can also be a wonderful journey ofself-discovery, as you’ll finally have time to think about your life.40．All you need to do is pack your bags, take your passport, gather up your courage and go somewhere. Go out and enjoy being alone, explore the unknown, make some friends, read a book, and get to know more about yourself and the world.A．Traveling by yourself is also quite easy.B．You can go to shopping malls and explore the city.C．For many people, traveling alone can be frightening.D．There are also some unpleasant moments one might run into.E．It is important to take some time off and think about the methods.F．But anyhow, I still suggest that you travel alone at least once in your life. G．Traveling alone helps us figure out what we really want to fight for in this big world.四、单词拼写根据下列句子及所给汉语注释，将空缺处单词的正确形式写在答题纸上。

So I was writing to tell you anything about this country.Locating in North America, Canada is the second large country with the largest number of lakes in the world.

Used an iPad, we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read it. Obviously, it’s of great help with our studies, especial with our English listening skills. Some students, however, bring their iPads to the classroom listening to music with earphones, but some even playing video games, which make teachers and students greatly annoyed. For my opinion, the classroom is a place to study and concentration was terribly needed. Therefore, we should make a good use of iPads and other modern communication tools to help with our lessons.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．AThe adolescent girl from Tennessee was standing on the stage of a drama summer camp in New York．But the girl didn’t feel joyful．She was not the leggy，attractive Hollywood type．In fact，she described herself as stupid．This girl was Reese Witherspoon，who had wanted to be a country singer and admired and respected Dolly Patton very much．That day at the end of the camp her coaches told her to forget about singing．They suggested she think about another career．She took their words to heart．After all，why shouldn’t she believe the professionals?But back at home in Nashville，her mother—a funny，happy，optimistic woman—wouldn’t let her feel depressed．Her father，a physician，encouraged her to achieve in schoo1．So she worked hard at everything and was accepted at Stanford University．And at 19，she got a part in a low-budget movie called Freeway, which prepared for her role in the movie Pleasantville．But her big break came with Legally Blonde．“If you can’t sing and you aren’t charming，play to your strengths．If you’re going to make it in this business，better focus on what you’re good at，”she told the interviewer later．And then came the offer that took her back to her Nashville—playing the wife of a country star Johnny Cash，a singing role．All of a sudden the old fears learned on that summer stage were back．She was so nervous on the stage．But she didn’t give up on the movie or herself．She spent 6 months taking singing lessons again．She learned to play the Autoharp．And the hard work built up her confidence．Last March，Reese Witherspoon walked up on another stage，the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood，and accepted the Oscar as Best Actress for her heartbreaking，heartwarming singing role as June Carter Cash in Walkthe Line．1．Why was Reese Witherspoon sad that day?A．The experts advised her to give up singing． B．Dolly Parton told her to leave the stage．C．The coaches described her as foolish． D．The professionals considered her ignorant．2．How did Reese succeed in playing the singing role?A．She did her best to make herself leggy and attractive．B．She tried hard to forget about that summer stage．C．She practised Autoharp lessons for more than 6 months．D．She regained her confidence through hard work．3．What can we learn from Reese’s experience?A．Two heads are better than one． B．When in Rome，do as the Romans do．C．Where there is a will，there is a way． D．Hope for the best，and prepare for the worst．BThere is a saying “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.” What one individual considers beautiful may not be beautiful to another. When we talk about beauty in people, we often refer to their physical attractiveness. Of course, a beautiful or handsome face is pleasant to look at. But to me, beauty is not only something that pleases the eyes, but also pleases the other senses and the mind. I think true beauty makes you see beyond the lovely sight. It will give you insight or realization of something interesting beyond just the outward appearance.The most memorable “beautiful people” are those who have attractive personalities behind the pretty faces. In one of my previous classes, there were two beautiful girls, Sue and Lin. Both had almost perfect faces and slender figures. But Lin was used to getting her way. She felt that her looks could help her get anything she wanted, especially among the boys. Sue, on the other hand, treated her beauty in a matter-of-fact way and she was nice to everyone. She was also a member of the debating team. Her personality was mostly accepted by others and it made her a more outstanding beauty than Lin.Inner beauty is another kind of beauty that attracts people greatly. People who have this kind of beauty have attained (达到) inner peace. They care about their fellow-men, and try to right the injustices in this world. Two well-known personalities who exemplify (以…为典型) this are Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa. Mandela is willing to sacrifice his life and freedom to obtain equal right for the blacks in South Africa. Mother Theresa’s mission (使命) is to help the poorest of the world’s poor. This inner look makes the world a better place.5. When we talk about beauty in people, we often only refer to__________.A. “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”B. something beyond the lovely sightC. their attractive appearanceD. the other senses6. According to the passage, why did the author think Sue was more beautiful than Lin?A. Because Sue had perfect face.B. Because Sue was highly thought of by others.C. Because Sue had slender figure.D. Because Lin treated her beauty in a matter-of-fact way.7. What’s the author’s opinion on beauty?A. Beauty is a perfect face.B. Beauty is something that pleases the eyes.C. Beauty is an attractive personality behind the pretty faces.D. Inner b eauty doesn’t attract people.CEverywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.I see people trapped in a pathological (病态的) relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.”But it’stime to discover that it does not work for technology.Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.”To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today’s overused technology.8. The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.A. advantageB. attractionC. adaptionD. attempt9. From the passage, technology companies aim to ______.A. attract people to buy their productsB. provide thelatest informationC. improve people’s quality of lifeD. deal with cultural diseases10. It can be inferred from this passage that people ______.A. consider too much technology wonderfulB. have realized the harm of high-tech devicesC. can regain freedom without high-tech devicesD. may enjoy life better without overused technology11. What’s the author’s attitude towards the overusing of high-tech devices?A. Neutral.B. Skeptical.C. Disapproving.D.Sympathetic DHow long has 3-D technology been around? Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950’s movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3-D. But 3-D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838 with the first stereoscope(体视镜). And the first actual 3-D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed’un Train.Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle-----to make 3-D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye. Modern 3-D technology works by rapidly flickering(闪动) two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye. The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show, the appearance of depth, the third dimension.But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child’s developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long-term studies on new flicker digital 3-D technology and children aren’t yet available. We do not know if regular or daily 3-D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3-D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful.The question of possible harm in modern 3-D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3-D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3-D viewing. It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3-D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment. Researchers will have to wait until 3-D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3-D TV watchers and compare them with non-watchers.With a 3-D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3-D exposure cause more changes in the visual system. We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors.12. According to the text, 3-D technology ______A. was refused by people when it first appeared.B. will soon change the way we watch TV.C. does no good to our visual system.D. has a history of nearly 200 years.13. Paragraph 2 is mainly about________.A. how 3-D technology works.B. why 3-D movies are popularC. the history of 3-D technology.D. the influence of 3-D technology.14. What’s the meth od suggested in paragraph 4?A. To wait and seeB. To carry out lab studiesC. To stop making 3-D moviesD. To improve 3-D technology15. The author’s purpose in writing the text is to _______A. ask children not to watch 3-D moviesB. discuss if 3-D viewing is harmful to children.C. introduce the advantages of 3-D technology.D. predict the development of 3-D technology.第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

(25)_________ is simply finding the time, amidst a busy workload of daily museum tasks and an intensive shorter-term exhibition schedule, to undertake longer-term research projects, involving thorough investigation of the pictures themselves, secondary research (26) _________ (conduct) in libraries, and conversations with peers worldwide.

The calculated 31 showed this long and thin rock to be simply passing through the solar system, and therefore its origin not of this world, as they like to say in the movies. The object was 32 named 'Oumuamua (from the Hawaiian word for “a person sent ahead to get information about the enemy's position, strength, etc.”) , raising memories of an old Star Trek episode, “For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky,” in which a long, 33 asteroid proved to be an alien ship in disguise (伪装) .There's nothing surprising about interstellar objects passing through our neighborhood. Or there shouldn't be, at least. There's no magical barrier at the 34 of our solar system. Although we see a sky full of stars a and inor telescopes 35 hundreds of clusters a and nebulae (星云) , most of the space in a galaxy's disk is practically empty, save for the thin interstellar medium.This month, science journalist David Chandler delivers a fascinating look at the 36 for spacecraft missions to interstellar intruders. Catching up to Oumuamua now would be virtually impossible. This thin, cigar-shaped rock, 37 about 1, 300 feet long, is rushing along at about 16 miles per second and is already as far away as the average distance to Pluto.But there's no doubt that other visitors from other stars will come by again. This has 38 happened countless times in the 4. 6-billion-year history of our star and its planets- and now, astrophysics is in an advanced state. Every day we learn about 39 conditions long ago in the solar system by studying pieces of rock or metal from space that have landed on Earth and other objects. With the chemistry of materials from the origin days of other stars 40 , who knows what could be found from such priceless relics.That's another comforting thought to keep in mind as you read David's story and then gaze up into a dark sky full of wonder.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B. C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Should period dramas reflect modern sensibilities?Simon Jenkins The most popular films of my youth were war films. They were about how Britain won a war—and that could be any war you cared to mention. In my opinion, they were great fun and, mostly, patriotic 41 .I'm a journalist and occasional historian, and something the two professions share is a respect for the 42of truth. Both are in the business of bringing events to life through the power of fact, not falsification. They may sometimes be 43 of distortion (歪曲) and thoughtless analysis, but to be plain wrong is unethical and unprofessional. The gap between fact and fiction is one that should not be crossed—or if crossed, should stand corrected.Many playwrights, filmmakers and novelists 44 . To them, history is a stimulus to artistic licence, material to be exploited and 45 for dramatic effect. Their considerations are audience appeal, profit and, often, politics. They leave it to historians to worry about 46 . This, to me, is lying.I have always found ‘ 47 ’ (in which facts are the basis for fiction) hard to stomach. I can appreciate‘docudrama’, which dramatises the events, or the novels of Hilary Mantel, as attempts to deepen our understanding of the past. Mantel insisted that her goal was always to be as 48 as the facts allowed. She did not 49 create false events. The same was not true of The Crown and its much-documented faking of stories. The fact the team behind the show took such pains to cast actors that 50 their real-life counterparts simply added a touch of reality to the made-up story. The result was an audience 51 of what was true or false.I appreciate that history—as with 52 —involves selection, and that selection itself can be motivated by a desire to twist the truth. Each age puts pressure on historians to select material in a manner that respects the 53 or bias (偏向) of nations, groups or individuals. The duty of the historian is to see behind such bias. The task is toreveal what happened, why and how.In an age of artificial intelligence and online ‘deep fakery’, the truth has never been more 54 . The world of fiction has no need to be a parasite (寄生虫) on history: it has all of human imagination to supply it with plots. Every work that claims to be ‘based on real events’ should, in my view, be identified as lies, and should display a large ‘T’ or ‘NT’ —true or not true. Artistic licence should not be a (n) 55 to deceive.41. A. honour B. instinct C. rubbish D. masterpiece42. A. victory B sacredness C. suspicion D. degree43.

A. instance B. tendency C. licence D submissionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)“Who says it's Father's Day?” my son says to me, with the questioning angry look of someone who's been told they have extra tax to pay. “Well, the world does,” I tell him, suddenly self-conscious. “It's a special day for daddies.”Something about this—I can't think what—comes out sounding quite desperate and he looks at me as if I've just suggested he prove his love for me with a face tattoo (文身) . It's a look of suspicion, but also of tender concern for my mental state.This is his fifth Father's Day, so I can't help feeling slightly wounded that the concept hasn't stuck with him. I also can't help noting that he has never had any such issue with Mother's Day, which has always seemed to him like common sense.The event's nearness to his own birthday two weeks from now—is making things more difficult for him to tolerate. It would seem he finds it impolite that the run-up to his special day should be interrupted so close to the finish line by a day that celebrates me, the lesser of his two parents. In any case, if he's planning to make or gift me something, this conversation has been a masterstroke of expectation management“So, will all daddies get a Father's Day?” he asks. “Yes,” I reply, “and this isn't new-it's every year!” I attempt to regulate my voice/offence, but also make it very clear I haven't made this idea up on the spot by myself. “You've been doing it since you were born. And it's been around longer than that. I get things for Grandad every year, too.”At this he stirs himself up. He has never quite stopped being fascinated by the idea that his grandad is my dad, in the same way that I am his. I suppose it's the same thrill I feel when I see pictures of massive cranes (起重机) being built by other, even bigger cranes.“What do you get him?” he asks. “Well,” I say, “things like CDs or socks-and always a card.” At this he seems inspired. “I'll do a card!” he says, brightening.“You could buy me something, too. . .” I begin, but he is no longer listening, running to grab coloured paper and glittery pens. Not wishing to see this tribute to myself a whole week early, I smile and tell him I really shouldn't be watching and get up to leave him to it.“Yes,” he says, just in time for me to see he's actually writing “Dear Grandad” on the page. “Don't tell him!”56. How does the writer feel when explaining Father's Day?A. Suspicious.B. Embarrassed.C. Proud.D. Ridiculous.57. It can be inferred from the son's response that ________.A. the son feels hurt because the concept escapes himB. the writer looks relieved due to his son's tender heartC. a face tattoo is the way to prove a son's love for his fatherD. the son identifies with Mother's Day more than Father's Day58. The writer mentions Grandad in order to ________.A. justify the annual celebration of Father's DayB. practise skills of expectation managementC. narrow the gap between the three generationsD. link Father's Day to his son's birthday59. Which of the following best summarises the passage?A. When celebrating Father's Day, you should also send a DIY card to your grandpa.B. It is a universally acknowledged fact that Father's Day is a special day for daddies.C. Father's Day is a special time to celebrate Dad, but for my son that's a bit of a stretch.D. My son and father have agreed to keep the Father's Day greetings card secret from me.(B)611907Elizabeth Maconchy is born on 19 March in Broxbourne,Hertfordshire.

William LeFanu, a surgeon, got married to Maconchy.C. Maconchy began composing a series of string quartets.D. Sir Henry Wood composed an orchestral suite The Land.(C)A theme at this year's World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Switzerland was the perceived need to “speed up breakthroughs in research and technology.” Some of this framing was motivated by the climate emergency, some by the opportunities and challenges presented by generative artificial intelligence. Yet in various conversations, it seemed to be taken for granted that to address the world's problems, scientific research needs to move faster. The WEF mindset is similar to the Silicon Valley dictate—to move fast and break things. But what if the thing being broken is science? Or public trust?The WEF meeting took place just two weeks after Harvard University President Claudine Gay stepped down after complaints were made about her political science scholarship. In response, Gay requested corrections to several of her papers. Although it may be impossible to determine just how widespread such problems really are,it's hard to imagine that the scene of high-profile scholars correcting and retracting papers has not had a negative impact on public trust in science and perhaps in experts broadly.In recent years we've seen important papers, written by outstanding scientists and published in celebrated journals, retracted because of questionable data or methods, hence a question: Are scholars at supercompetitive places such as Harvard and Stanford rushing to publish rather than taking the time to do their work right?It's impossible to answer this question scientifically because there's no scientific definition of what constitutes "rushing. "But there's little doubt that we live in a culture where academics at leading universities are under tremendous pressure to produce results—and a lot of them—quickly.The problem is not unique to the U. S. In Europe, formal research assessments—which are used to allocate (分配) future funding—have for years judged academic departments largely on the quantity of their output. A recent reform urging an emphasis on quality over quantity allowed that the existing system had created “counterincentives. ”Good science takes time. More than 50 years elapsed between the 1543 publication of Copernicus's On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres. And it took just about half a century for geologists and geophysicists to accept geophysicist Alfred Wegener's idea of continental drift.There's plenty of circumstantial evidence that scientists and other scholars are pushing results out far faster than they used to. Consider the sheer volume of academic papers being published these days. One recent study put the number at more than seven million a year, compared with fewer than a million as recently as 1980. Some of this growth is driven by more scientists and more co-authorship of papers, but the numbers also suggest that the research world has prioritized quantity over quality. Researchers may need to slow down if we are to produceknowledge worthy of trust.63. WEF meeting in Switzerland advocated that ________.A. researchers need to achieve breakthroughs more rapidlyB. public trust in science is not supposed to be easily brokenC. WEF and Silicon Valley reach an agreement to move fastD. climate emergency and AI push scientific research hard64. Which of the following examples fails to prove that good science takes time?A. Gay's correction and retraction of papers.B. Publication of Copernicus's theory.C. High-profile scholars' tremendous output.D. Acceptance of the idea of continental drift.65. The underlined word “counterincentives” in para. 5 probably means ________.A. measures to increase quantities of outputB. discouragements of high quality papersC. rewards for leading universities' researchD. contradictory motives for future funding66. Which of the following is best title of the passage?A. WEF Coincides with Silicon ValleyB. Collapse of Public TrustC. Dilemma between Quantity and QualityD. Trouble in the Fast LaneSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Brentford FC has taken a different approach.B. Statistics have helped the team win on the pitch, too.C. He applied his talent to identifying the underlying strength of football teams.D. Analytics underlay and supported a remarkably profitable buy-low-sell-high transfer strategy.E. They were told to focus not on how many goals a team was scoring, which was subject to too much randomness.F. Like “Moneyball” , a hit book about the use of statistics in baseball, “Smart Money” is both informative and entertaining.Football and dataA numbers gameAt most football clubs, the equation is simple: you put in vast amounts of money, and you get out star players and win victories. Take Manchester City, the Premier League's reigning champions. Before its takeover in 2008 by a Middle East plutocrats (财阀) , the club often struggled in the bottom half of the table; it has won English football's championship seven times since 2011.67. _________ The club was promoted into the Premier League in 2021 after striving for decades in the lower reaches of football. What makes its success surprising is not how much money its owner, Matthew Benham, has put into the team, but how little. In a new book “Smart Money”. Alex Duff, a lifelong Brentford fan, explains how a money-saving plan made profits.Mr Benham studied physics at Oxford University and then went to work in banking. In his early 30s, sensing correctly that bookmakers (赌注登记人) were inaccurate when setting odds for football matches, Mr Benham leftbanking to become a full-time gambler.He set up his own company, Smartodds, and competed with financial institutions to hire the best mathematicians. 68. _________ Instead, their focus should be the "goal-scoring opportunities it was creating. In time, he reckoned, the goals would comeThe approach was so efficient that when Brentford, going through one of its periodic financial crises, put out a general appeal for help in 2005, Mr Benham offered his services. Within a decade he owned the club and was applying his ideas to how the team was constructed. 69. _________There were plenty of doubters within football about Brentford's philosophy. But in time it worked. In their first season in the Premier League, Mr Benham's investment of around f100m in the club—a tiny sum compared with competitors—realised its first profit of £25m.70. _________ Mr Benham identifed ser pieces (定位球) as an important part of creating scoring opportunities, and hired Gianni Vio, an Italian coach with 4, 000 such plays in his career. Players are instructed to press the opposition and tackle players within ten seconds of them receiving the ball. Though Brentford is not competing for the title, in recent years the team has beaten several of football's plutocrats—including Manchester City. What were the odds?IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Build better boundariesDoing a good deed like helping your friend with their homework or sharing a snack can make you feel happy. Studies show that kindness is good for your wellbeing. However, if you often agree to things you don't want to do, or feel guilty saying no, you could be falling into a people-pleasing trap. It's not always easy to tell when this happens but one clue is that it's difficult to stop. Pleasing other people may feel good for a short while but the feeling doesn't last. This is why it's a good idea to set limits on what you'll do for others. These are called “boundaries”.Spending too much energy on someone else can stop you doing things you want or need to do. Research has found that trying to please others can leave us feeling stressed and uncomfortable. We can also feel angry and frustrated with ourselves and our friends. “There's nothing wrong with being kind to other people,” says Dr Toru Sato, an author and expert in thoughts and feelings, but we need to be sure we're doing it out of kindness, not because we're worried about what other people think.Taking on so much that you end up letting others down doesn't make you a better friend. The youth mental health charity YoungMinds says boundaries include taking time alone when you need it and being able to explain your needs. If saying no feels hard, practise with small things, like if someone offers a straw in a restaurant. This can help you feel more confident. Thinking about how to say no also helps, YoungMinds says, and allows you to communicate what you want clearly and calmly. Remember, you don't need an excuse to say no; you don't owe anyone an explanation. The good people in your life will respect this boundary.71. _________________________________________________________________________________________ V. Translation。

Firstly, what confuses me most is the proper use of tenses. I often mix up tenses, leading to low scores on my writings, What’s more, I s truggle to find appropriate wordsto express myself accurately. Despite my massive efforts to expand my vocabulary, words still fail me when I need to write. In addition, I find it difficult to make my writing well-structured and coherent, which frustrates me a lot.I’d appreciate it if you could give me some practical suggestions on my problems. Looking forward to your reply.Yours,Li Hua第二节(满分25分)Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. In a panic I quickly glued together whatever materials I could find, my hands shaking with the weight of each hasty decision. The finished result looked miserable. However, several of my classmates, including Nate, had created amazingly detailed buildings. They used materials like clay, wood and so on and their constructions were highly praised by Mr. Smith. When I saw their models, I felt even more embarrassed about mine. It was apparent that they had put a lot more time into the assignment than I had.That taught me a great lesson. I learned from that day the importance of deciding on my priorities and budgeting my time. From then on, I tackled things a lot earlier instead of putting things off until tomorrow. As a result, not only did I finish my tasks ontime, but I also felt better because I didn’t have to panic at the last minute. At the end of the semester, my work was chosen by Mr. Smith on another occasion. Seeing my change, my parents and my sister were so proud of me. It dawned on me that getting things done on time instead of being a procrastinator really counted.听力录音稿Text 1M: Do you have any idea what’s wrong with my houseplant It gets plenty of sun and enough plant food...W: Are you watering it too often Remember this plant comes from the desert where there’s hardly any rain.M: Ah..Maybe that’s the problem!Text 2M: It seems to be human nature to pursue what we don’t have. Tall people want to be shorter, and short people want to be taller... W: I know. For example, when I was younger, my cousin always wanted my golden hair, and I wanted dark hair like hers.Text 3W: Hi, are there any tickets left for tonight’s concertM: Sorry, they’re sold out.

I’m hoping for a career in medicine.W: Okay, great! Well, the laboratories have all been updatedrecently, so we’ve got some really good equipment. Follow me. Text 10On my recent business trip to Shanghai, I met up with a local friend who took me out for a very interesting evening meal. At the Community AI Canteen, everything is done by robots. When you walk in there, you place your order on a screen. Using robotic arms, the intelligent cooking system then cooks your food before packing it up... It even adjusts the temperature, depending on whether you want to eat it straight away or take it home with you! To pay, you place your food on a smart cash desk, which immediately calculates (计算) the cost. There’s even a 24-hour noodle machine just outside, which offers hot and fresh food around the clock. The canteen offers a huge amount of choices and the dishes taste great. It is really fun to get “a taste of the future”. However, I’m not sure I would like all restaurants to be run by robots. I can see the benefits for busy families or office workers needing a quick lunch, but what about lonely older people who would miss the human touch I do think we will see more places like this in the future, though. At best, a human waiter can serve around 100 people in a day. The AI system can serve double that figure, making it good for business.荆州中学2024-2025学年高二上学期9月月考英语试题命题人：审题人：（全卷满分150分考试时间120分钟）第一部分听力(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。

Learning experiences in famous colleges.2．How much will a student attending SMART holiday course pay at least?A. £550.B. £610.C. £1100.D. £1160.3．What is the text?A. A tour guide.B. An advertisement.C. A journal entry.D. A study report.I arrived home from work, my mind racing. I was scheduled to perform an experiment using a pricey piece of equipment, but I had spent the whole day worrying about the experiment which was on the top of my agenda, and I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts. So after dinner, I made a cup of hot chocolate, stretched myself on my sofa, and opened a page. Almost instantly, my mind left behind the details of experimental design and stepped into a land of monsters, magic dust, and man-like bears comprising a wonderful world distinct from my daily life. It was exactly what I needed.Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels. My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf. Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my disciplines for better grades. After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all but I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers an d textbooks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too. So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again.To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year. The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork.What surprised me the most was how much I learned. Some of the best books I read were historical fictional stories happening in a realistic historical setting. I learned about life in different countries as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories. The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul.4．What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety?A. He drowned it in chocolate.B. He escaped into a fantasy world.C. He slept on the sofa leisurely.D. He conducted an experiment.5．What does the author mean by the underlined part in Paragraph 2?A. Reading novels was a waste of time.B. Reading a good book was time well spent.C. He was too busy to take good care of his books.D. The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected.6．How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author?A. More sympathy went out to him.B. His moral values were strengthened.C. He learned much about religious diversity.D. He gained new insight into his academic discipline.7．What does the author think of the impact reading fiction books has on himself ?A. OverestimatedB. UnderestimatedC. FavourableD. TemporaryCarlos Slim’s proposal that we work a three - day week sounds crazy. But many, in 1922, thought Henry Ford crazy when he announced that his staff would work a five-day week.Our working week seems normal to us because it is what we all always do. He certainly could be for those he was most concerned about when he made his three - day - week statement at a business conference in Paraguay: the workers who are not ready to retire. As Mr. Slim said, it no longer makes sense for people to stop working in their fifties or sixties when they may still have up to a third of their lives ahead of them. “People are going to have to work for more years, until they are 70 or 75, and just work three days a week - perhaps 11 hours a day.” he said.Keeping older employees at work makes sense for societies, especially those with a diminishing number of young people who are expected to support long - living retirees.He appeared to be suggesting that these short - week workers earn the same as they did full - time. That is what happens at Telmex, his Mexican fixed - line phone company, where those qualified for retirement can choose to work four - day weeks on full pay.Older workers elsewhere might prefer shorter weeks on reduced pay - and eight or nine - hour days rather than 11. Their companies might value keeping their experience while saving money on their salaries. What about everyone else? There are those who are unemployed, or in unstable jobs, who would be delighted to have three secure, well - paid days of work a week.Shorter weeks don’t work in every job, but they work in more jobs than most tradition - bound managers think. Agreeing to them requires two shifts in management thinking. The first is the realization that much of the time spent in offices is wasted anyway. Second, senior executives need to understand that the best way to measure people is by the work they produce - not by how much time they spend at their desks.8．According to paragraph 2 why did Mr. Slim think it unwise for people in their fifties or sixties to retire ?A. Because they have longer life to live in their future.B. Because they have children and old parents to supportC. Because they have much interest in their present work.D.

Working Three Days A Week: A Great IdeaD. Carlos Slim - Crazy For More Resting TimeDreams, according to Carl Jung, reveal a certain amount of reality hidden during waking consciousness. In Jungian philosophy, the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring order to our lives. While Jung’s mystical theories are debatable, he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming. A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways.This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic (新陈代谢的) systems, let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patterns, which has long-term consequences on our memory system. One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, the stage in which we dream, the mice couldn’t strengthen memories.You might think this is just a sleep problem, but dreaming is inseparable from our nighttime rest. We sleep in cycles, each lasting about 90 minutes; in a sleep cycle, we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM. As the night progresses, REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep (one of the stages of non-REM sleep) decreases. The longer we sleep, the more time we spend in REM, which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning. If we sleep less than seven hours, however, it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM.The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer. We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly. However, we’re not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant (抗抑郁剂) — dreams. Instead, we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep, which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM.We’re paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways. For example, a 2021 stu dy stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep, REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration (整合) of unassociated information. V olunteers that experienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring creative solutions.Rowan Hooper, the managing editor at New Scientist, writes that dreams that include an “emotional core” appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we do diet and exercise habits.12．What’s Carl Jung’s view about dreams?A. They cause chaos.B. They damage immunity.C. They reveal secrets.D. They mirror reality.13．Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3?A. To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep.B. To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours.C. To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached.D. To show people often dream when waking up in the morning.14．What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5?A. REM sleep promotes creativity.B. REM sleep helps fight depression.C. The brain still receives new information during REM sleep.D. The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep.15．What’s the main idea of the passage?A. The importance of sleep lies in dreams.B. The absence of dreams is terrible for us.C. Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize.D. Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories.二、七选五16．Travelling with some of your favourite people is an exciting experience. If done well, group travelling can be the most thrilling experience ever, filled with games, laughter, and unforgettable memories. ① _________ Read on for some of the things you need to note and do for an enjoyable experience.② _________Ideas are usually exciting when they are fresh. The longer you delay, the more you’ll find excuses not to go. Let all interested parties meet as soon as possible to decide on dates, locations and budget. It’s best to plan the trip three or four months in advance.Assign rolesFor the trip to be successful, it has to be well organized. You’re going on a trip far from home, not the shopping mall. This is why the group should assign a leader who would be responsible for planning and organizing the trip. ③ _________ Break them down further. For example, choose someone to handle booking a hotel and another person to take care of the meal.Budget pool④ _________ You can do a weekly or monthly payment plan before your trip. Once you decide how much would fund the trip, members can start contributing the money weekly or monthly. The leader would then use the money to pay for accommodations, meals, transportation and more while you’re on vacation. If there’s money left in the end, split it up or go wild one last night.Create a flexible itinerary（行程）An easy way to create and share an itinerary is through Google Docs. Add the group members to the document and give them permission to edit it. Suggest one or two optional activities per day which do not require advance bookings, such as a local hike or museum. ⑤_________A. Start early.B. Get fresh ideas.C. So how do you plan for your group trip?D. Collect a set amount from everyone before your trip.E. Don’t forget to create room for something unexpected.F. Also, divide the other responsibilities as they arise so that everyone participates.G. The group leader generally keeps in contact with everyone, handling most of the detailed work.三、完形填空（15空）The e-mail request came into Ekiben restaurant in Baltimore late on a Thursday afternoon: broccoli (花椰菜) topped with fresh herbs, diced onion, and vinegar.

Doubts clouded my mind as I into that new world, Parsons School of Design. But fate had a plan, introducing me to Kathleen, who would become my guiding light.I remember feeling out of place on my first day at Parsons, questioning everything from my outfit to my abilities. As I walked in and scanned the classroom, my vision sharply stopped on one person. Wow. She looked cool. I plopped myself down next to her and introduced myself as Dorri, thrilled when she smiled and said, “Hi. I’m Kathleen.” That was all it took.What a difference Kathleen made in my school life! Her confidence, discipline, and responsibility were worlds away from my shaky, wild, and lazy nature. We became inseparable, signing up for the same classes, and I was always trying to earn her approval.One day the homework assignment was to create an exciting illustration based on a pair of shoes. Burstingwith ideas, I pulled out my favorite pair of antique thrift shop “old-lady shoes” and poured my heart into the project. Proud of my work, I rushed to Kathleen’s apartment to show her my creation, holding up my paper with glowing confidence. But Kathleen’s reaction was unexpected, crushing my pride with a single question: “Is that the only drawing you did?”“Well, yes,” I responded sheepishly, “Why?”“Come on,” she said. “Let’s go to Washington Square Park and really do some drawings.” I was puzzled, but when she led, I willingly followed, with my pad tucked under my arm.As we made our way to the park, Kathleen enthusiastically talked about form, content, and composition and stressed the significance of observing subjects closely. She described the shoes in my drawing as the kind worn by elderly women who frequent the park to feed pigeons. That moment, she taught me to look closely and recreate diligently.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

A group of athletes were 4 up to run a short race. One of them was in a wheelchair,a little girl with a 5 smile. The gun sounded. They were off. Runners sped up in the track with all their might. There she was, pumping her arms with all the 6 she had. Her efforts were getting little result, but that did not stop her. I noticed as she got closer that she also had an injured arm. But that did not stop this bright star. The race was long over 7 the young athlete kept pumping her arms. As she finally 8 the finish line, the noise of the crowd was thunderous. There I stood cheering, with tears falling down my cheeks.After all these years, I can still hear those cheers. I grew up a lot that day because of the 9 of that little girl in the wheelchair.

Gary.BI was born an albino(白化病人)in Pennaylvania in 1945. No one in my family had ever known what an albino was and what it meant to be albino.My parents treated me just like they treated everybody else. That was just about the best thing they could have done. It helped me trust myself, so when the anger came along, I could deal with them.Like must albinos, I had terrible eyesight, but the fact that I could hardly see didn’t trouble me that much.Kids would tease me, calling me “Whitey”. People stared at me when I held reading material right at the tip of my nose so I could see it well enough to read. Even when I was eight or nine, movie-theater clerks started asking me to pay adult prices because I “looked older”.The worst part for me was that because my eyesight was so bad, I couldn’t play sports very well. I didn’t give up trying, though. I shot hoops (篮球框)every day. And I studied harder.Eventually, I got better at school and loved it. By the time I got to college, I was double majoring, going to summer school and busying myself with every activity I could find. I had learned to be proud of being an albino. I did my best to make “albino” a positive word. And I decided to make my living with myeyes---and in sports.I couldn’t see very well to play sports, but with a solid education and the drive to do it, I could make a living involved in the area I loved. I’ve done it now for over thirty years in print and in video, and now incyberspace(网络空间). People make jokes about how I’m the only “blind editor” they know, but the jokes are affectionate. Some of them are the sings of respect.I was just a proud albino kid from the coal country of Pennsylvania. I now realize that being born an albino helped me to overcome difficulties, gain confidence, and be proud of my personal achievement.24.
