2023届吉林省长春吉大附中实验学校高三上学期第四次模拟考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解HSK TEST and HSKK TEST are both the internationally standardized tests that focus on the ability of candidates whose Chinese is not their first language to use Chinese for communication in life,study and work.According to China’s Ministry of Education,any foreign students to be enrolled in Chinese university should at least hold a HSK Level4certificate.Learners who want to apply for the Confucius Institute Scholarships should take the score reports of both HSK and HSKK.All test takers taking HSK abroad are eligible(合格)to apply for the Chinese Test Summer Camp to experience Chinese culture and learn Chinese in a short period in China.HSK and HSKK scores are valid for a long time.As a proof of the Chinese language ability of foreign students entering Chinese colleges and universities,the scores are valid for two years(counting from the day of the test).HSK TESTTest levels include HSK(Level1),HSK(Level2),HSK(Level3),HSK(Level4).HSK (Level5)and HSK(Level6).Exam Object:HSK(Level4)is mainly for candidates who have learned Chinese for four semesters(two academic years)with a schedule of2-4class hours per week and mastered1, 200commonly used words.HSKK TESTHSKK Test is designed to test the ability to express oneself orally in Chinese and includes the HSKK(Elementary),HSKK(Intermediate)and HSKK(Advanced).Exam Object:HSKK(Intermediate)is mainly for candidates who have leaned Chinese for one to two academic years at a schedule of2-3class hours per week and master about900 of the most commonly used words.1.What is required for a foreigner to get into a Chinese college?A.To pass Level4of HSK.B.To score above average in HSKK. C.To speak Chinese as their mother tongue.D.To take part in Chinese Test SummerCamp.2.How many levels does HSKK Test include?A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6. 3.Where can we most probably see this article?A.In Chinese art galleries.B.On inter-city subways.C.In elementary schoolbooks.D.On overseas study websites.My hands were shaking uncontrollably.I tried incredibly hard to focus on the words that I spent hours putting down on paper.I tried to conquer my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life.During college and at my first few jobs,I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting.Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember.Then in my mid-thirties,I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters.At every meeting,we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award.You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker,but nothing seemed to work.It wasn’t until recently,when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic,that I decided I must speak out.Science has made this country a place where dreams come true—this is why we all need to protect science.In addition,as a science writer,I try to get readers to understand how science is related to their daily lives.So I ended up on that frightening stage on that sunny Saturday in April—Earth Day. Despite the body shakes and fear,I persevered.That day,I looked out into the crowd oflike-minded science supporters and I felt comfort.Reaching that milestone goal of getting through a speech truly changed me.At almost forty,I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible.The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures.4.Which of the following can replace the underlined word“nemesis”in Para.1? A.Strength.B.Confusion C.Preference.D.Struggles. 5.What happened to the author when leaving Toastmasters?A.Things got worse for him.B.Nervousness remained with him.C.He became a polished writer.D.He began to feel more competitive. 6.What made the author want to speak out on Earth Day?A.He must rise up to defend science.B.It was a good chance to learn science.C.It was a project organized by Toastmasters.D.He couldn’t have people attacking his fellow scientists.7.What lesson did the author draw from his successful speech?A.Frustration can be a stepping stone to success.B.Love motivates us to achieve the unachievable.C.Science can lead us to make wonderful changes.D.Any difficulty can be overcome with great effort.TikTok has appeared as a major starter of food trends—from mushroom coffee and pancake cereal to cloud bread.But there’s another trend dominating TikTok that’s become bigger than any of these viral recipes.That’s the#whatieatinaday trend,which is nearing9 billion views.These video food diaries are also popular on Instagram—typically featuring a wellness influencer or celebrity showing their foods they ate that day—often with afull-length yoga clothes mirror selfie.The basic message these posts send is that if you eat like them,then you can eventually look like them.The posts are promoting the idea of a perfect or ideal day of eating,along with a perfect body size.“Younger audience,especially girls and young women,accept the message that they must eat like these creators in order to achieve and maintain not only health,but also social attraction,”says Cara Harbstreet.“The biggest harm I see with this trend is that it normalizes disordered or restrictive eating behaviors.This could prevent someone struggling with an eating disorder from seeking and receiving support or treatment.”Even if the#whatieatinaday posts are displaying a balanced day of eating,the message of“eat like me,and you will look like me”is harmful because people would not necessarily achieve the same body size as the Instagrammer even if they copied their day of eating bite for bite.Rather than a day’s worth of food,many experts suggest posting a single meal instead. Rachael Hartley said an individual meal or recipe could serve as an idea or inspiration versusa full day of eating to copy.“I occasionally share#whylate Wednesday posts,with the aim of showing a wide range of foods,including fast food,desserts,convenience foods and other foods that diet culture might dislike,as well as showing how to include nutrition in a gentle way,”she said.Rachael says diet culture has changed our sense of how much is“normal”to eat at meals or snacks,so it can be helpful to see a full meal that shows a variety of foods.8.What is paragraph I mainly about?A.The popularity of TikTok cooking classes.B.The origin of the#whatieatinaday trend.C.The Internet hit of posting a whole-day diet.D.The disagreement of selfies in yoga clothes.9.Why is#whatieatinaday trend harmful according to Cara Harbstreet?A.It makes people less attractive.B.It confuses dieting with healthy eating. C.It contributes to emotional disorder.D.It restricts people’s choice to vegetables. 10.Which kind of posting would probably be preferred by experts?A.A big Sunday supper with various dishes.B.A single meal with only convenient noodles.C.Breakfast,lunch and dinner on a Wednesday.D.A day’s meals with more vegetables than meat.11.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To compare different eating habits.B.To inform a standard posting method.C.To argue against#whatieatinaday posting.D.To discuss the pros and cons of diet culture.Soot(煤)pollution is speeding up climate-driven melting in Antarctica,a new study suggests,raising questions about how to protect the delicate continent from the increasing number of humans who want to visit.“It really makes us question,is our presence really needed?”says Alia Khan,one of the authors of the new study.“We have quite a large black carbon footprint in Antarctica,which is enhancing snow and ice melt.”Black carbon is the leftover thing from burning plants or fossil fuels.Soot in Antarcticacomes primarily from waste gases of cruise ships(游轮),vehicles and airplanes,although some pollution travels on the wind from other parts of the globe.The dark particles(微粒) coat white snow and absorb heat from the sun the way a black T-shirt does on a warm day. The blanket of dark bits speeds up melting that was already happening more quickly because of global warming.When snow and ice are uncovered,they reflect an enormous amount of sunlight before it can turn into heat.“These are the mirrors on our planet,”says Sonia Nagorski,a scientist at the University of Alaska Southeast.“When those mirrors are covered in a film of dark bits, they don’t send back that much light and heat.That means more heat is trapped on Earth, speeding up melting and contributing to global warming.”As a scientist who personally visits Antarctica every year,Khan says she is troubled by her own research results.On the one hand,she goes to Antarctica to collect crucial data about how quickly the snow and ice there are disappearing.“But then when we come to conclusions like this it really does make us think twice about how frequently we need to visit the continent,”she says,“and what kind of regulations should be placed on tourism as well.”That could mean requiring that cruise ships and vehicles be electric,for example,or limiting the number of visitors each year.12.What is Khan’s attitude towards human actions in Antarctica according to paragraph2? A.Angry and abusive.B.Cold and uninterested. C.Doubtful and anxious.D.Admiring and delighted. 13.What is the main cause of soot pollution in Antarctica?A.The quick melting of ice and snow.B.The emission from virous transport. C.The remaining parts of burning plants.D.The floating gases from other continents. 14.What do we know from Nagorski?A.The covered ice is less reflective.B.The melting speed of ice is slower than before.C.The dark blanket serves as a big mirror.D.The sunlight gets increasingly stronger recently.15.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.What made our planet so polluted?B.Who is to blame for air pollution? C.Can electric vehicles save tourism?D.Are we welcome to the South Pole?Weeds,the fast-growing plants that cannot be eaten and do not bring flowers,are a common problem for gardeners.Some use chemicals to kill weeds.Others pull them up by hand or with heavy machinery.Luckily,there are other ways to limit their growth.For starters,there are mulches(护根物)which can bury weeds.Mulches are made from organic material,such as leaves,grass cuttings,and small pieces of wood.They are spread over the ground in a garden to control anic mulches break down over time.____16____That is not a bad thing,because their decomposition(分解)creates nutrients for plants and humus(腐殖质)to keep soils wet and full of fresh air.Plastic mulch is another way to stop mon black plastic is easy to lay down. It also effectively blocks weeds and helps soil warm faster in the spring.____17____A reflective plastic mulch,for example,keeps some plant-eating insects away.A major problem with plastic is that it breaks apart over time,so eventually it needs to be thrown away,plus it adds nothing to the soil as far as nutrients or humus.____18____Finally,in addition to direct attacks on weeds,how you plant your garden can indirectly influence weed growth.For example,close spacing of plants in the garden blocks sunlight from reaching the ground and can limit weed growth.And using a watering method known as drip irrigation will direct small amounts of water to the roots of your plants instead of the weeds.____19____Lying in soil are millions of weed seeds just waiting to be awakened by light and air.____20____Instead,your goal is simply to limit their growth in the garden.A.So you must add more to your garden often.B.So it is by far the best support for plant growth.C.And plastic also can block air from reaching the soil.D.A small group of geese can clear weeds in half a hectare of land.E.Whether or not you dig up your soil also influences weed growth.F.Using any or all of these methods will not permanently stop weed growth. G.Recent experiments with other colored plastic have shown effects on both bugs and plant growth.I’m a professor teaching people how to think more creatively.____21____,this lifetime passion was awakened by a casual contest when I was a child.At a family picnic,children used to have the handkerchief-throwing contest,which I realize now,was not meant to show any real____22____,but simply for laughs.But it stirred my love of thinking outside the____23____.The host gave each child a cloth handkerchief and told us the winner would be the one who threw it the farthest.The first little throwers____24____mighty strength,but the cloth opened and fell to the ground.So when one kid after another threw harder when the handkerchief always opened,it____25____me.The secret was not to throw harder but to keep the cloth from____26____!Suppose I hid a rock in the cloth without tying it.The rock would____27____the cloth at least farther than the others,and when they separated,people might not notice a small rock____28____in the grass.I had a good chance of____29____ with it,but I didn’t want to win by cheating.I had to make the handkerchief fly like a rock.I began tying the handkerchief around itself to make it_____30_____.When I approached the _____31_____as the final contestant,people were already laughing.I took a long wind-up, and the balled handkerchief rocketed off maybe60feet away.The laughing_____32_____ suddenly.The host stared at me and then ran to_____33_____if I’d cheated the crowd.“It’s just the handkerchief,”he declared.The adults applauded and I felt_____34_____.This is how I learned the secret to creative thinking.I wanted to continue looking_____35_____what things seemed to be.21.A.Increasingly B.Unfortunately C.Interestingly D.Normally 22.A.skills B.suggestions C.disadvantages D.signals 23.A.picnic B.crowd C.ground D.box 24.A.broke up B.set up C.used up D.took up 25.A.scared B.annoyed C.distracted D.touched 26.A.opening B.flying C.disappearing D.floating 27.A.adjust B.desert C.encounter D.drive 28.A.growing B.landing C.shooting D.roaring 29.A.getting away B.fading away C.doing away D.running away 30.A.round B.heavy C.small D.cute31.A.line B.rock C.winner D.punishment 32.A.erupted B.followed C.grew D.died 33.A.suspect B.predict C.examine D.remind 34.A.ashamed B.stressed C.cautious D.proud 35.A.around B.beyond C.beside D.above四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个恰当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

From the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, where irrigation systems were devised to nourish lush gardens, to modern-day urban rooftop gardens, humans have continually found solace and beauty in nurturing plants. Gardening is more than just tending to the soil and watching seeds grow; it’s a meditative practice that connects individuals with nature, fostering a sense of accomplishment and well-being.In recent years, the trend of urban gardening has gained momentum, as more and more city dwellers seek to bring a touch of green into their lives. Rooftop gardens, vertical gardens, and even indoor herb gardens have become popular ways to combat the stress of city living and improve air quality. These spaces notonly provide aesthetic pleasure but also serve as havens for wildlife, such as birds and butterflies, attracted by the variety of flora.Gardening also offers numerous health benefits. Regular exposure to nature has been shown to reduce stress levels, improve mood, and even boost the immune system. The physical act of gardening, including digging, planting, and weeding, provides a low-impact workout, strengthening muscles and improving flexibility. Moreover, the act of nurturing plants can be therapeutic, helping to alleviate anxiety and depression.Yet, the benefits of gardening extend beyond the individual. Community gardens, where neighbors come together to cultivate shared spaces, foster a sense of belonging and camaraderie. These spaces often become hubs of social activity, where people exchange gardening tips, share harvests, and even hold educational workshops. Community gardens can also play a role in food security, providing fresh produce to those who may not have access to healthy, affordable options.As the world faces increasing challenges related to climate change and environmental degradation, gardening takes on even greater significance.

Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.advantageB.anticipatingC.digitallyD.facilitatingE.geometryF.giantG.initiatedH.painstakinglyI.potentiallyJ.reopenedK.soughtHow Digital Modeling Plays a Key Role in Restoring the Notre Dame Cathedral(巴黎圣母院) It’s been more than four years since a fire damaged Notre Dame,the Catholic cathedral in Paris that’s historically drawn millions of visitors every year.Since then,people from around the world have united to support an effort,31by French President,that’s intended to have the building back open to the public by the end of next year.Teams working to restore the Gothic cathedral have32to rebuild much of the damaged sections using materials like oak wood(橡木)and stone that have stood the test of centuries.But the builders,architects and engineers do have the33of some21st century technologies,高中3including modern building information modeling(BIM)software that enables them to work with a(n) 34detailed3D digital model of the cathedral and surrounding site,backed by powerful cloud computing technology.“It allows you to really understand a lot of how a building fits together,how it’s constructed,”says Andrew Anagnost,CEO of design software35Autodesk.It has contributed technical consulting, software and financial assistance to the project since shortly after the fire.A digital model,which took more than a year to create,includes more than12,000objects.It was a complex process.Onsite workers captured the point-by-point3D36of the cathedral with laser(激光)and photo equipment.Then,others turned the data points from that process into detailed shapes and objects,down to individual building stones.That let experts see how the building shifted in the fire—important for37any stability issues—and plan out the process of reconstruction.“It’s like Mission:Impossible when they plan,”says Nicolas Mangon,VP of architecture, engineering and construction industry strategy at Autodesk.“Every little piece is done38,and with the3D model you can simulate(模拟)everything.”Even when the cathedral is39,the model may still serve important roles.Mangon says the company is currently in discussions about using it to manage aspects of the complex going forward, 40using sensors that could show the exact location of any future fires.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.Sea levels along coastlines in the United States will rise about one foot by2050,with larger increases on the East and Gulf coasts,according to a comprehensive new report by climate scientists.Oceans have already risen about one foot in the last century,as climate change melts glaciers(冰川)and ice caps around the world.But the pace is41,scientists warn,and the next30years will see the same amount of sea level rise as the previous100.The report gives the most concrete and certain sea level42ever published for the U.S.And advances in computer models and real-world information about rising seas make it possible to see the future more43than ever.Sea level rise44dramatically for different parts of the U.S.coast.The ocean is not like a bucket of water that rises at the same time as more liquid is45.Ocean46push more water into some areas than others.Ice in different regions melts at different rates.In many parts of the world, sea level rise is47because coastal land is sinking.The new report adds up all those factors to give48estimates for different parts of the U.S. The authors predict about a foot and a half of sea level rise for the Gulf Coast by2050,with particular 高中4hot spots from Texas to Mississippi,where exploitation of underground oil,gas and drinking water is causing the land to rapidly49into the rising ocean water.There are50hot spots in the Mid-Atlantic region,including Annapolis,Md.and Norfolk,Va.Overall,the East Coast is51to experience a little more than a foot of sea level rise in the next30years.Sea level rise is happening more52on the West Coast,including much of southern and western Alaska,the report finds.The authors predict about six inches of sea level rise by2050.William Sweet,a sea level rise expert with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)and one of the authors of the new report,says cities that are not yet flooded should53 now.Quickening sea level rise may require that humans54where and how we build homes, offices,roads and anything else that is better dry than wet.Right now,development in flood-prone(易发洪水的)areas is increasing,despite climate change.Beyond2050,the report makes clear that humans have a55:reduce greenhouse gas emissions and control sea level rise,or keep burning fossil fuels and face oceans that are two,three or even10feet higher than today.41.A.dying down B.paying back C.holding on D.speeding up42.A.records B.extremes C.predictions D.solutions43.A.flexibly B.clearly C.randomly

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)Most teachers assign novels for students to read not write.But many teachers nationwide are not only asking students to read novels but also giving them a month to write them.高中5Yes,you read that right:one month.However,students participating in November’s National Novel Writing Month(NaNoWriMo)do not complain about being overworked.Instead,they have been known to ask,“Can we work on our novels today?”That’s because,above all,NaNoWriMo is meant to be fun.An exercise in “seat-of-your-pants”novel writing,it has almost no rules.The Office of Letters and Light is the nonprofit behind the event.It believes this carefree approach encourages writers to take imaginative risks and truly enjoy their work.Founded in1999,the adult version of the event requires only that you commit yourself to making an attempt at novel writing and submitting a novel of50,000words,no matter how good or bad they are,by the end of November.Since2005,NaNoWriMo has entered many classrooms,including those of National Writing Project teachers,through its Young Writers Program.In addition,teachers receive a classroom kit featuring a progress chart,stickers to mark word counts,and buttons for writers who cross the finish line.About1,800classrooms and45,000kids and teens participated last year.The rules for under-18 writers are the same as those for adults.But there is one important exception:young writers can pick their own“reasonable yet challenging”word length.If a student elects to write,say,18,000words and achieves this goal in a month,he or she is a winner.Awards include a“handsome winner’s certificate”and a promotional code to receive a free bound proof copy of the finished novel.The Young Writers Program also facilitates Script Frenzy,a similar scriptwriting(剧本写作) event that happens each April and challenges participants to write a100-page script in30days.While young writers work primarily as individuals,teachers are also encouraged to write along with them.56.It can be inferred that students usually_____after participating in NaNoWriMo.A.enjoy themselvesB.overload themselvesC.look courageousD.become distracted57.By“seat-of-your-pants”in paragraph2,the author means_____.A.the novel writing activity gives its participants pants as awardsB.the participants have to stick on their seats for long writing novelsC.the participants are free to write whatever novels they can imagineD.the novel writing activity needs new rules for participants to follow58.What can be learned about the rules for adolescent writers?A.They should cross the finish line before participating.B.They can lengthen the duration of their writing process.C.They can decide on their novels’word counts themselves.D.They should submit novels on their teachers’recommendation.59.The passage is mainly aimed at_____.A.explaining the objectives of an eventB.giving a general introduction to an eventC.illustrating the benefits of novel writingD.attracting teachers to join a writing program高中6高中7(B)YOUR IMPACT BEGINS TODAY Help us solve our world's most pressing challengesWithyour support,we’re driving new knowledge,working to reduce

a living,most of whom are in developing countries.As the global population increases,the demand for seafood is expected to rise,too.Although ocean ecosystems are stretched to the limit by climate change,overfishing and more, studies nevertheless suggest that seafood can be expanded sustainably to meet future food demands. Success will depend on small-scale fisheries.These fisheries can be remarkably efficient.Almost everything that hand-to-mouth fisheries catch is consumed.By contrast,around20%of the fish caught by industrial ships is estimated to be wasted,mainly because of unwanted by-catch.Small fishers rarely have the right resources to expand their operations,or even to survive.If they do scale up,they might lose some of their current advantages or engage in the same harmful practices as do large commercial fisheries.Managed with care,however,small fisheries could provide win-wins for livelihoods and the environment.Most nations already have management policies for marine ecosystems that provide for small-scale fisheries.But small-scale fishers’rights to access are often poorly defined,ineffectively enforced or unfairly distributed(分配).Government subsidies(补贴)also require reform.One estimate found that large-scale fishers receive about3.5times more subsidies than small-scale fishers do. Instead,subsidies and other funds should be directed towards small-scale fishers to let them expand their access to markets,while keeping them from adopting the negative practices of large-scale operations.The total global loss and waste from fisheries is estimated at between30%and35%annually primarily due to a lack of technology,good manufacturing practices,and infrastructure such as decent roads and cold storage.Public and private investment in cold-storage facilities and processing 高中8equipment could help.One promising strategy is to pair international or national funding with direct contracts for feeding programmes linked to schools,hospitals and similar facilities.Such arrangements would provide small fisheries with large,consistent markets and storage infrastructure that boosts local consumption and does not incentivize(刺激)overfishing.Moreover,simple incentive programmes could be conducted by funders,managers and local governments trying to promote sustainable fisheries.For example,local markets could display a rating system for individual fishers or small fisheries.This could include various elements of sustainability other than environmental ones—such as providing information on the type of fishing equipment, location of the catch and freshness.Promoting the rating as a social responsibility concept would inform consumers of the need to support sustainable fisheries.Anyway,only joint problem-solving efforts can deliver seafood protein,sustainably,to a world that increasingly needs it.63.The passage mainly tells us that_____.A.small fisheries can help the world if managed with careB.the global demand for seafood is increasing dramaticallyC.small-scale fisheries need to be commercialised urgentlyD.people in developing countries are more reliable on fishing64.Small-scale fisheries are more efficient because_____.A.what they catch is hardly wastedB.their by-catch accounts for a larger shareC.they catch fish by industrial meansD.their operation is limited within a small area65.What can be inferred about small fisheries’current situation?A.They gain no support from governments.B.They are expanding to meet local demands.C.They have little access to good resources.D.They impact marine ecosystems negatively.66.To promote sustainable fisheries,which of the following is one of the author’s suggestions?A.To initiate a rating system for small fishers to evaluate the local markets.B.To provide technology for small fisheries to boost their fishing efficiency.C.To inspire a sense of social responsibility in large-scale fishers and consumers.D.To facilitate direct cooperation between small fisheries and feeding programmes.Section CDirections: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.高中9A.Here we show how this work translates to humans.B.Many college students experience irregular and insufficient sleep.C.The study evaluated more than600first-year students across five studies at three universities.D.Most surprising to me was that no matter what we did to make the effect go away,it persisted.E.The results are available in the Feb.13issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy ofSciences.F.Total nightly sleep is a potentially important and underappreciated behavior supportingacademic achievement.Nightly Sleep Is Key to Student SuccessFor young adults,college is a time of transition.It may be the first time students have the freedom to determine how to spend their time,but this freedom comes with competing interests from academics, social events and even sleep.A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted the first study to evaluate how the duration of nightly sleep early in the semester affects first year college students’end-of-semester grade point average(GPA).Using sleep trackers,they found that students on average sleep6.5hours a night,but negative outcomes built up when students received less than six hours of sleep a night.67 David Creswell,the William S.Dietrich II Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences,led a team of researchers to evaluate the relationship between sleep and GPA.“Animal studies have shown how critical sleep is for learning and memory,”said Creswell.“68The less nightly sleep a first-year college student gets at the beginning of the school term predicts lower GPA at the end of the ck of sleep may be hurting students’ability to learn in their college classrooms.”69The researchers found that students who receive less than six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.In addition,each hour of sleep lost corresponded to(相对应)a0.07decrease in end-of-term GPA.“Once you start dropping below six hours,you are starting to add massive sleep debt that can harm a student’s health and study habits,damaging the whole system,”said Creswell.“70”“A popular belief among college students is valuing studying more or partying more over nightly sleep,”said Creswell.“Our work here suggests that there are potentially real costs to reducing your nightly sleep on your ability to learn and achieve in college.There’s real value in budgeting for the importance of nightly sleep.”高中10IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.71.Call a Physical TherapistYou get up from the sofa and-ow!Back pain takes your breath away.Do you reach for the pain pills?No!Call a physical therapist instead!More and more,physical therapy,or PT,is a common go-to for treating aches and pains.A physical therapist can treat almost any injury to give a patient a better quality of life.When it comes to treatment,one size does not fit all.A physical therapist personalizes a treatment plan based on their observations and the patient’s concerns.The goal is to help injured or ill people improve movement and manage pain,so they can live life to the fullest.These therapists work with patients who suffer from back or neck injuries.They help people recover from broken bones and surgeries as well as work-or sports-related injuries.Physical therapists also teach people how to stay in shape and prevent further injuries.Their hands-on(动手的)therapy includes strengthening or stretching exercises,ice or heat and more.No one can become a physical therapist without getting a doctor of physical therapy degree.After completing it,a person must pass a professional license exam before beginning to practice.Further, being a physical therapist can be mentally and physically draining because of the hands-on, personalized patient care required.A successful physical therapist needs to have great communication skills and an eye for detail.They should also be creative problem solvers as well as resourceful.For those looking for a satisfying career,PT is one to consider.The demand for the profession is growing faster than that of many other careers.Private clinics and hospitals hire physical therapists. Sports facilities and professional sports teams also employ them.Therapists may work in skilled nursing facilities or visit patients in their own homes.If someone wants to see the world,they may want to become a travel physical therapist.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.这个保安负责又睿智,让公司避免了损失。

But Shanya Gill,a middle schooler from San Jose,California,won the top award in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge for designing a fire detection system that is superior to existing ones,as stated in the press release.“The top winners have exhibited boundless curiosity,”Maya Ajmera president and CEO of Society for Science,said in the press release.“Their remarkable research not only reflects their talent but also paves the way for an exciting new future.”Shanya’s inspiration came after a fire destroyed a restaurant in her neighborhood during the summer of2022,reported The Washington Post.“I had never really experienced something like that before,”she told The Washington Post about the early morning fire at Holder’s Country Inn, which started in the kitchen.“They had smoke detectors.and yet it still burned down,”she added.After she studied fire statistics,Shaya spent over a year developing a fire detection system that she believes could have prevented the fire.Unlike traditional smoke detectors that sense active fires from the smoke in the air,Shanya’s thermal(热的)imaging device is designed to stop fires from occurring.With a thermal camera and a Raspberry Pi,a tiny computer the device detects when a heat source has been left unattended for ten minutes and sends a text message warning.Creating the prototype(原型)was difficult and the hardest part was the programming,“I had two designs,and my first design completely failed.It was a really big challenge I had to go through.”she said.The final device outperforms smoke detectors in speed and accuracy.Shanya wants to bring the costs down to make it even more common than hardwired smoke detectors.“Shanya saw a problem,went after it and tried to solve it,and that’s what we need toencourage with all young people,”said Ajmera.She also highlighted the significance of supporting individuals,especially girls and kids of color,in STEM fields,as research indicates that many young people drop out of these areas.4.What can we learn about Shanya from the first two paragraphs?A.She gained a lot of money in the award.B.She showed a curious nature as a schooler.C.She set a big stage for young people her age.D.She was junior to other winners in performance.5.What motivated Shanya to develop her fire detection system?A.Her desire to win the science award.B.Her experience of a destructive fire.C.Her interest in computer programming.D.Her goal to improve STEM education for girls.6.What is an advantage of Shanya’s invention?A.It consists of two parts that are easier to conduct.B.It can send out a warning against a potential fire.C.It can detect active fires from the smoke in the air.D.It functions when a fire breaks out within10minutes.7.Which of the following can best describe Shanya?A.Reliable.B.Cooperative.C.Innovative.D.Generous.Scientists have shown how plants can protect themselves against genetic(基因的)damage caused by environmental stresses.The growing tips of plant roots and shoots have an in-built mechanism(机制)that spells cell death if DNA damage is detected,avoiding passing on faulty DNA.Plants have small populations of stem cells(干细胞)at the tips of their roots and shoots, which enable them to continuously grow and produce new tissues throughout their lifetime.These stem cells serve as ancestors for plant tissues and organs.However,any genetic faults present in the stem cells will continue to exist and be passed on permanently throughout the plant’s life, which could last thousands of years.Given the critical role of stem cells and their exposure to potentially dangerous environments at the growing tips of roots and shoots,safeguards are necessary to prevent stem cell faults frombecoming fixed.Researchers Nick Fulcher and Robert Sablowski,funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council,aimed to uncover these protective mechanisms. Through experiments involving X-rays and chemicals,they discovered that stem cells were more sensitive to DNA damage compared to other cells.When DNA damage occurs,the cells have the capacity to detect it and cause programmed cells to die,preventing the propagation of the damaged genetic code to the rest of the plant tissues. This process has similarities to the safeguard mechanism found in animal cells,which has been broadly studied due to its relevance in preventing cancer.The identification of a similar protective system in plants is of great interest in the field of plant development.It also helps scientists develop plants that can better handle environmental stress.So knowledge of how plants deal with these stresses is of fundamental significance to agricultural science’s response to climate change.8.What is the function of the in-built mechanism in plants?A.To produce more roots and shoots.B.To increase the overall lifetime of the plant.C.To enhance plant growth and nutrient intake.D.To stop genetic faults in stem cells passing on.9.What can we know about stem cells in plants according to the text?A.They are relatively abundant in quantity.B.They are resistant to environmental stresses.C.They make quick response to DNA damage.D.They have the ability to repair damaged DNA.10.What does the underlined word“propagation”in paragraph4mean?A.Spread.B.Change.C.Existence.D.Self-repair. 11.What does the last paragraph focus on?A.The way of dealing with climate change on the earth.B.The significance of identifying the protective system in plants.C.The method of ensuring plant survival under environmental stress.D.The urgency of developing plants that can handle environmental stress.Recently,I accidentally found a set of Hanfu l only wore once from the bottom of the cupboard.I remember buying them simply to match the ancient-style hair accessories(配饰)afriend gave me.It occurred to me that1had been trapped in the“birdcage effect”.“Birdcage effect”means that when you get an item one day,you will prepare more things to match it.Weeks ago,I was in the company of friends engaged in shopping.One said that she wanted to buy a good writing pen to match the delicate notebook that her sister gave her,so that she would fall in love with taking notes on reading,and thus love reading,not just reading.I joked that she must have fallen for the“birdcage effect”.But the friend said with a smile:“Why not use the‘birdcage effect’instead?”For the first time,I heard that the“birdcage effect”can be used in reverse(逆向).However, this can’t help but remind me of middle school,and I seem to have used the“birdcage effect”. Passing by a bookstore one day,I purchased a magazine and saw the call for contributions published in the magazine,so I started writing with eager hands,and then I fell in love with writing.After shopping with my friends that time,I began to proceed to use the“birdcage effect”.I bought a small fresh tablecloth to decorate my desk,and a beautiful notebook to record my inspiration.When everything was ready,I started writing again.But how can we get rid of the“birdcage effect”in many things,and even use the“birdcage effect”in the opposite way?Various“birdcages”unavoidably appear in life,but we can distinguish them.If it is not in line with the actual situation,it is a“negative birdcage”,then we must learn to stop losses in time and maintain a heart of abandonment and separation.If it is a “positive birdcage”that motivates us to develop upward,we can clarify our goals,shop or decorate appropriately,and motivate ourselves to move towards our goals.At this time,you will find that the“birdcage effect”is actually not so terrible!12.What is paragraph2mainly about?A.The application of the“birdcage effect”in life.B.The necessity of using the“birdcage effect”in life.C.The turning point of the author’s idea on the“birdcage effect”.D.The author’s conflict with her friend over the“birdcage effect”.13.What is the author’s purpose in mentioning her middle school experience?A.To recall her delightful days at school.B.To explain the reason for her love with writing.C.To confirm the positive of the“birdcage effect”.D.To prove her knowledge of the“birdcage effect”.14.How can we make use of the“birdcage effect”positively?A.By realizing this effect has two sides.B.By promoting our personal consumption.C.By recognizing this effect is not so terrible.D.By guiding our acts to go with reasonable goals.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Getting Rid of the Birdcage Effect ConfidentlyB.Motivating Ourselves to Move Towards Our GoalsC.The Birdcage Effect:Influence on Consumer BehaviorD.The Birdcage Effect:How to Use It to Your AdvantagePursue Your Dreams Today,Not TomorrowHave you caught yourself daydreaming about your dreams?We often postpone our dreams, trapped in a cycle of delay.But why wait?16You don’t have to take a huge, life-changing step.You can take minute steps toward a brighter future.And start right now.17If you never try,you’re going to be weighed down by your regrets.You’re always going to wonder how your life would’ve turned out if you actually took a chance on yourself.Don’t let your future self be disappointed by your present self.It doesn’t matter how old you are or how many people have warned you that you’re never going to succeed.Even the most successful people have had their hesitations about whether they had what it took to make it in their field.18Embrace a mindset of determination, knowing that success is within your reach.At the end of the day,you need to carve out a path for yourself that will lead to the most satisfaction.If you allow your fear to get the best of you,you’re never going to forgive yourself.19.It’s what you would encourage your friends to do,so why aren’t you giving yourself that same push?Sometimes,following your passion means spending a lot of your time each day.It may require making slight adjustments to your schedule,but you don’t have to sacrifice everything tofollow your hearts.Try to strike a balance between your current life and your dreams.20 Pursue your dreams now,even though that means you might need to break out of your comfort zone,and even though it means entering the unknown.A.Ask yourself what would be worse.B.Starting small is completely acceptable.C.You owe it to yourself to go after your dreams.D.New opportunities may lead to personal growth.E.If things go well,you can gradually make further shifts.F.You need to move past your insecurities and explore your full potential.G.Hard as it is,it’s crucial to wave off the doubts in the back of your mind.二、完形填空In2008,Calvin Lowe's four-year-old son Tyler needed to have a serious surgery.On the appointed day of the21,he and his wife brought Tyler to Children’s Hospital Colorado in
