AWorld’s Fascinating Libraries to Mark World Book DayWorld Book Day, also known as World Book and Copyright Day, is an annual event organized by the UNESCO to promote reading, publishing and copyright. The first World Book Day was celebrated on April 23 twenty-eight years ago. Let’s take a look at the world’s fascinating libraries and enjoy the fun of reading.Royal Portuguese Cabinet of ReadingLocated in the center of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the Royal Portuguese Cabinet of Reading is a library and cultural institution. It was built in the late 19th century. Open to the public since 1900, the cabinet has the largest collection of Portuguese literature outside Portugal, holding more than 350,000 books.Stuttgart City LibraryStuttgart City Library is a cube outside with a hollow design inside. The hollow part is connected with misplaced stairs to create a unique sense of space. Since its completion in 2011, it has become a local cultural card and an “instagrammable” place for many tourists.Library of AlexandriaThe Alexandria Library in Alexandria, Egypt, was one of the largest and most significant libraries of the ancient world. The library, destroyed in 415 AD and rebuilt in 2002, is not only a library, but also a museum and scientific research institution. It is known as the Egyptian cultural center and a lighthouse of thought, culture and science.Vasconcelos LibraryVasconcelos Library is located in the downtown area of Mexico City. It was designed by the famous Mexican designer Alberto Kalach, and named after JoséVasconcelos, the philosopher and former president of the National Library of Mexico. It was completed in May 2006 and opened to the public.21. When was the first World Book Day celebrated?A. In 1900.B. In 1995.C. In 2002.D. In 2006.22. What can we infer about Library of Alexandria?A. It is the largest library of the ancient world.B. It has a collection of more than 350,000 books.C. It guides Egyptian’s development and progress.D. It was designed by a famous Mexican architect.23. Which is the youngest library?A. Royal Portuguese Cabinet of ReadingB. Library of AlexandriaC. Stuttgart City LibraryD. Vasconcelos LibraryB“Peg, do you think I can pull the rope(绳)?” The question was asked before we made marks on each of our cows. He had pulled the rope for years. He knew the answer before he asked, but he asked anyway. I answered, “Dad, I know you can't pull it for all the cows, but for a few you will do great. You get out here and we will give it a chance.” Until the last moment on the cows, to be exact, there were three left, I finally saw him driving slowly down the hill.As he approached, we stopped to wait for him. He drove over slowly, parked his car and got out with great difficulty. He made his way to the rope, not an easy task at 93. Tears were running down his face as well as mine. Dad's tears weren't tears of sadness for what he was no longer able to do, but tears of thankfulness that he was able to pull the rope for three cows. His last words when he left, “There, I worked, now I can eat!” That day, those three cows were just what he needed.It was the last time my dad would pull the rope. At the age of 95 my dad changed his address from earth to heaven, a day he had longed for. He was such a diamond(宝石)in my life. My dad passed on his love of birds and all farm animals to me. He used to be a brave World War I pilot. He loved my mother, his family, his country, and his friends. The lessons he taught me are ones that will never be forgotten. I am grateful for the time and beautiful memories.Miss you on the special day—Father's Day, dad.24. How did the father ask the question?A. In surprise.B. Out of patience.C. On purpose.D. In anger.25. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. The farm workers were considerate.B. The author got along well with his co-workers.C. His father was old enough not to work.D. His father had very deep love for work.26. What did the author mainly tell us in the third paragraph?A. His father has a great influence on him.B. His father loved birds and farm animals.C. His father passed away at the age of 95.D. His father had a right attitude to death.27. What was the purpose of the author to write the article?A. To measure.B. To remember.C. To comment.D. To advertise.CNo matter where you go in the world, you will notice something unusual about the trees—their trunks(树干)are painted white, People whitewash trees for a variety of reasons, depending on the area they live in.In Mexico, the purpose of whitewashing is to protect the tree and fight against a specific type of ant.Greece is another country where you can find trees painted white. According to tradition, during Easter(复活节), everything gets whitewashed, Make sure to planyour next trip to Greece if you won't want to miss this interesting and unique tradition.Generally speaking, the main purpose of whitewashing is to protect the tree from heat and insects. And few are as effective and accessible as whitewashing.When the tree is exposed to too much sun in the daytime, the tree cells become more active; however, the roots as well as the other unexposed areas of the tree remain inactive. If the water that the tree needs cannot be provided from the roots, the tree will have a dry surface. Once you whitewash them, the surfaces of young trees won't get dry easily.Pure white paint works efficiently when it comes to reflecting both heat and sunlight away from the tree. White paint allows the tree to spend more time taking in carbon dioxide(CO2). The more carbon dioxide the trees take in, the more energy they create. Gardeners whitewash trees not only for protecting their trees but also increasing fruit production.If the tree is suffering from being sunburned, the wound can also allow the insects to enter the inside of the tree. Moreover, relative diseases can affect how the tree grows. Whitewash prevents any access to the inside of the tree.Painting the trees white won't stop traffic accidents, but it can make them less frequent, because drivers can see the trees much more clearly, even during the night.28. For what reason do the people paint the trees white in Greece?A. To have the trees seen more clearly.B. To protect the trees from extreme heat.C. To celebrate a famous traditional festival.D. To make the surroundings more beautiful.29. What can be inferred from the text?A. Insects and diseases can certainly kill the trees.B. The tree cells become more active in the daytime.C. Painting the trees white may stop traffic accidents.D. Whitewashing the trees may increase fruit production.30. What is the best title for the passage?A. How we should paint the trees whiteB. Why the tree trunks are whitewashedC. When it is the best time to paint the treesD. What we should do before painting the trees31. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A health report.B. A travel handbook.C. A scientific magazine.D. A product advertisement.DAustralian data（数据）indicate that less than a quarter of children aged 5-14 achieve the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity every day and spend just over two hours each day sitting or lying down for screen-based activities. There is widespread concern that children are not spending enough time in nature and, as a result, that they may be missing out on the potential benefits that nature has to offer for social skills, learning, physical health, and wellbeing.For teachers in the know, nature-based play and learning is wonderful. For example, cooking on an outdoor fire can include a range of curriculum（课程）skills-maths and measurement of food materials, important fire and safety skills, reading and writing, and comprehending skills from the recipe, as well as imagination in finding the best sticks to use as skewers. Simple activities can equally deliver benefits: using sticks to show how fractions （分数）are part of a whole can explain problem solving in a hands-on way and help children better grasp（理解）more complex maths concepts.An Australian study found that while all teachers believed that nature-based play and learning can deliver huge benefits for children, seven out of ten teachers felt that their knowledge and confidence was limiting their ability to make full use of these opportunities at school. Difficulties in using nature-based play and learning for teachers include: limited knowledge and confidence in how to add it into learning or how to operate the class outside （78%）; a crowded curriculum limiting their abilityto adopt new learning （54%）; a lack of understanding/support from others in the school （38%）.Reducing these difficulties must be a focus to ensure children are able to judge nature-based play and learning opportunities at school. We must find ways to support teachers to upskill and feel confident in delivering learning opportunities in nature. Training, education, and support at the school level are important for teachers to take the next step, but so are system-level approaches to consider how nature-based learning can be formally included into the curriculum.32. What do experienced teachers think of nature-based play and learning?A. A good academic teaching through lively activities.B. A kind of everyday physical activity for all students.C. A practical student activity to feel the beauty of nature.D. A survival adventure to train students to live independently.33. Why do most teachers have difficulty adopting nature-based play and learning?A. They think students won’t like the learning.B. They are w orried about parents’ disagreement.C. They have not enough time and experience.D. They have got used to the classroom teaching.34. How can nature-based play and learning be widespread?A. By offering leachers a pay rise.B. By adding it to the required curriculum.C. By reducing students’ homework and tests.D. By replacing current teachers with younger ones.35. What is the best title for the text?A. Teachers and nature-based play and learning.B. The recommended everyday physical activity.C. The harm to children from screen-based activities.D. Nature-based play and learning’s benefits for children.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。

高二会考一般考几天考试安排是什么

⾼⼆会考⼀般考⼏天考试安排是什么两天。

是⾼中学业⽔平考试的简称,就是说⽂科⽣要考物理、化学、⽣物三科,理科⽣要考政治、历史、地理三科,并且都要合格。

学校要均衡安排每学年的授课科⽬，统筹确定每个年级的学⽣参加考试的科⽬数量，原则上⾼⼀年级2个科⽬左右，⾼⼆年级6个科⽬左右，⾼三年级6个科⽬左右。

各省(区、市)每年组织安排的考试要覆盖所有科⽬，满⾜不同学⽣选考的需要，考试时间⼀般安排在学期结束时。

1⾼中学考考试安排⾼中会考⽂化科⽬⼀年开考两次，每次都开考10门。

第⼀次安排在春节前三周左右，其中语⽂、数学、外语3科主要⾯向⾼三考⽣，其他科⽬主要⾯向中考学⽣;第⼆次安排在6⽉中旬，思想政治、物理、化学、⽣物、历史、地理、信息技术等7科主要⾯向⾼⼆考⽣，其余3科主要⾯向中考学⽣，不再单独安排补考。

物理、化学、⽣物实验操作考查时间安排在每年6⽉下旬，主要⾯向⾼⼆年级考⽣。

⾼⼀下学期末：化学(含实验)⾼⼆上学期末：物理(含实验)、地理、历史⾼⼆下学期末：⽣物(含实验)、英语(含听⼒考查)、思想政治(开卷)⾼三上学期末：语⽂、数学信息技术、通⽤技术为区县考，由各区县组织学校实施，考试时间⼀般分别安排在⾼⼀上学期末、⾼⼆上学期末进⾏。

2⾼中学业⽔平考试怎么样算通过⾼中学业⽔平考试也是⾼中学会⽔平考试，会考成绩分A、B、C、D四等，获得C等以上即为及格。

⾼中学业⽔平考试及格与否，⼀般来说，会有5%—7%的考⽣获得D等。

这就说明，如果当次考试，93%以上的⼈在60分以上，那么，你得到59分，就不及格。

如果当次考试，93%的⼈在50分以上，那么，你考的59分，就能及格。

多少分能及格，要看当次考试的⼈数与得分情况。

⼀般⽽⾔，满分为100分的试卷，争取考得60分以上，及格的可能性⽐较⼤。

A1. What is the advantage of Fineways’ new food labels?A. They provide extra nutritional information.B. They warn customers about unhealthy foods.C. They show different customers’ nutritional needs.D. They remind customers of the harm of unbalanced nutrition.2. According to the passage, the new labelling system can help to ______.A. reduce the amount of food you takeB. follow GDAs by mixing various foodsC. make your choice of more delicious foodD. satisfy the growing demands for nutrition3. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A dinner menu.B. A research report.C. A fashion magazine.D. An advice brochure.BOn September 10, 2024, Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, announced his successor(继任者)at the company he founded 19 years ago. Jack Ma will quit his role as chairman on September 10, 2024. Surprisingly, in a country where 70 to 80 percent of private companies are still family run, Mr. Ma did not name a family member. Rather, one of the world’s largest e-commerce companies will be led by Daniel Zhang, an 11-year Alibaba old h and chosen only for his “professional talent.”The history of many countries can be marked by a trend away from dependence on family succession in business, or the belief that qualities of leadership flow through bloodlines. Ma is a true innovator(创新者)in many ways, most famously for building an innovative online shopping market worth more than the economies of most countries. But his legacy(遗产)may lie in showing how China as well as much of Asia can produce founders of successful organizations unwilling to pass the torch to relatives.“Alibaba was never about Jack Ma,” he stated in announcing his succession plan. Instead, the former schoolteacher who came from lowly origins is stepping back from day-to-day operations because he has built a system that takes root in a company culture based on innovation, transparency, and responsibility. “For the last 10 years, we kept working on these ingredients,” he stated.The company’s future will depend on developing a wealth of talent that drives innovation, he said. And in a society with a long tradition of cautious distrust toward those outside the family circle, Ma has built an “architecture of trust” with customers, who number over half a billion. Chinese now readily rely on Alibaba’s online payment system, its ratings of products and services, and other trust-building systems or methods pioneered by the company.China’s rapid growth now produces a new billionaire almost every day. Many of them, like Ma, have favored systems of management based on talent and honesty. As many countries have discovered as they progress, it is better to swim in a talent pool, not a gene pool.4. What do we know about Daniel Zhang from the passage?A. He’s a talented professor.B. He’s an experienced employee.C. He’s a success ful founder.D. He’s Chairman of Alibaba.5. Where does Ma’s legacy lie in?A. Becoming a successful innovative founder.B. Casting doubt on traditional succession plan.C. Providing creative answers to succession problems.D. Representing trends towards non-family-run companies.6. What seems to be the recipe for the company’s future success?A. Trust-building methods.B. The “architecture of trust”.C. A culture of talent development.D. The latest successful innovations.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Prefer Qualities to Blood.B. Train a Potential Successor.C. Favor Genes over Talents.D. Provide New Management.CIt was many years ago. I was a young dad sitting on the couch reading a fairy tale to my little girl. She sat next to me with her head on my arm as I told the tale. When it came to the end I finished with those famous words: “And they lived happily ever after.” As I looked over to her with her brown hair and big, innocent eyes, I could see the smile on her face and I never wanted it to end. Then I realized that the ending of the book was what I wanted for her. I wanted her to “live happily ever after”.Still deep in my heart I knew that this couldn't always be so. I knew that there would be times when her heart was broken. I knew there would be times when she cried in sorrow and I couldn't comfort her. I knew there would be times when all she felt was fear, sadness, sorrow, and despair. As I touched her hair and smiled at her I hoped that those times would be brief and that she would have joy in her life more often than not. Living happily ever after, though, seemed out of the question.It takes me a lot of years to realize that it is possible to live happily ever after. You just have to do it “one day at a time”. Happiness you see isn't some reward that you get at the end of your journey. Happiness isn't something that depends on what life you own. Happiness is something you create in your life choice by choice and day by day.The truth is happiness comes when you love. Love is a gift from God. It is love that mends broken hearts. It is love that heals grief. It is love that gives us joy. Choose to “live happily ever after, one day at a time”.8 What is the author's wish to his daughter?A. Getting a good job in the future.B. Making many friends in her school.C. Traveling around the world in her life.D. Having a happy life ever after.9. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. Life's meaning consists in devotion.B. Living happily ever after seemed out of question to the author.C. There are times that life goes against us.D. Everyone has the right to obtain happiness and freedom.10. How to get happiness in author's opinion?A. Reward yourself once a day.B. Create it by yourself in your daily life.C Get rid of those disturbing things. D. Take charge of your life independently.11. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To show the significance of love.B. To describe a daughter's growth.C. To introduce the definition of love.D. To tell a young father's experience.DBoth honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist at Stanford University, says,“ Ants aren't smart. Ant colonies are.”The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their social behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communicationsystems, and both have the capacity for learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of the colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send messages to each other by means of a “dance”. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new home for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance, the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent American research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants.They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate(协调) complex actions and accomplish survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.12. What do ants and bees have in common?A. They live in similar-sized colonies.B. They make use of collective intelligence.C. They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.D. They use the same methods to communicate with each other.13. What does the speed of a bee's dance indicate?A. The quality of a new colony location.B. The distance to a neighboring colony.C. The discovery of a new food source.D. The direction to a potential food source.14. In paragraph 4, how does the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning?A. By using statistics.B. By explaining reasons.C. By referencing opinions.D. By presenting study findings.15. What is the benefit of collective intelligence?A. It allows the colony to reproduce more rapidly.B. It improves work cooperation within the colony.C. It reduces the division of labor among members.D. It enables individuals to teach each other new skills.其次节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。
