2023届广东省名校联盟高三3月大联考英语试题(含答案解析)

2023届广东省名校联盟高三3月大联考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Four Historic Firsts for Women in Space You Might not Know About First Woman in SpaceSoviet cosmonaut(宇航员)Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to go to space when she was launched with the Vostok6mission on June16,1963.She was selected from a pool of400applicants and five finalists.She was honorarily inlucted(入伍)into the Soviet Air Force so that she could join the Cosmonaut Corps.Tereshkova is the only woman ever to have been on a solo space mission.First US Woman in SpaceSally Ride was the first American astronaut to go into orbit on June18,1983,as a crew member on the space shuttle Challenger for STS-7.Ride was one of8,000people to answer an ad in the Stanford student newspaper seeking applicants for NASA.She was chosen to join the space program in1978.She went on one additional mission and spent a total of343hours in space.First Woman to Walk in SpaceThe first woman to walk in space,Svetlana Savitskaya,was also a cosmonaut.She was on her second mission when she space-walked as part of the Salyut7-EP2on July17,1984. She was also the first woman to have gone into space twice.First Teacher to go to SpaceChrista McAuliffe was a teacher and a civilian astronaut from Concord,NH who was killed with six other crew members when the space shuttle Challenger broke apart73seconds after launch on January28,1986.McAuliffe was selected from more than11,000applicants to participate in the NASA Teacher in Space Project.She was planning on conducting experiments and teaching two lessons from space.1.When did Valentina Tereshkova go to space?A.In1963.B.In1983.C.In1984.D.In1986. 2.Who was the first woman to have gone into space twice?A.Valentina Tereshkova.B.Sally Ride.C.Svetlana Savitskaya.D.Christa McAuliffe.3.What is special about Christa McAuliffe?A.She was a civilian astronaut.B.She was on a solo space mission.C.She conducted experiments from space successfully.D.She was selected from8,000people to join in the space project.Children are naturally curious about the world around them.When Chase Hansen was only4years old,he encountered homeless people for the first time while shopping with his dad at an outdoor mall in Salt Lake City,Nevada.It’s no wonder that he had a lot of questions.“Chase looked at me and said,‘Dad,who are these people?Why don’t they have a place to stay?’”John Hansen recalled.“After I explained that they had run into hard times and were homeless,I knew that we were looking at an educational opportunity.My son wanted to help them.”The father and son convinced a local Jamba Juice store to donate more than100 smoothies(果汁)and the pair gave them out to homeless people in a park.After that,they came up with an even better idea.“I wanted a way to get to know people better,“Chase said.”So,my dad and I decided to start taking some of the homeless people we’d met out to lunch.“A lot of people walk right past homeless people and don’t see the person,”he said.“I know now that they’re people just like us.They want to make a connection and not feel so alone in the world.”Hundreds of lunches later,they run a self-funded charity called Project Empathy(同情)to help inspire others to meet and to create relationships with the homeless people in their neighborhoods.The organization provides a list of resources that can help homeless people with food,housing and employment.John said that what started as a way to spend quality time with his son has turned into a passion for both of them.“Chase and I realized that the country needed an army of people to practice empathy,and that by doing something as simple as taking a homeless person to lunch, we could maybe inspire others to do the same,”he said.“Any time you can help to give someone a voice,it’s empowering.4.Which of the following can best describe Chase Hansen?A.Curious and caring.B.Knowledgeable and kind. C.Successful and talented.D.Generous and ambitious.5.Why did John and his son take some homeless people out to lunch initially?A.To help them to find the suitable shelter.B.To make friends with the homeless people.C.To do some research and prepare for a project.D.To have a better understanding of the homeless people.6.What’s the father and son super team’s goal?A.To offer jobs to the homeless.B.To change the social-economic conditions.C.To donate more smoothies to the homeless.D.To inspire more people to help the homeless.7.What’s the best title of the text?A.The Terrible Situation of Homeless PeopleB.The Relationship Between Father and SonC.Father and Son Help Homeless People One Meal at a TimeD.Project Empathy Encourages People to Practice Empathy“I like pigs,”Winston Churchill supposedly once said.“Dogs look up at us,cats look down on us,but pigs treat us as equals.”Whether Churchill’s contemporary George Orwell also liked pigs is less clear.But he,too,surely saw something in them that was lacking in other domestic beasts,for it was they who ended up running the show in novel Animal Farm. Pigs,then,are intelligent social creatures.And,like all animals,they sometimes fight.A study just published in Animal Cognition by Ivan Norscia,a biological anthropologist at the University of Turin,in Italy,and his colleagues,looked at how a group of104domestic pigs went about resolving such incidents. In total,Dr.Norscia and his team studied the details of216pig conflicts over the course of six months.Some pigs tend to be attackers;others tend to be victims.Who is what depends largely on weight,for,among pigs pounds mean power.The attacker might bite,kick,bump or lift the victim(or string together a sequence of those actions).Most conflicts ended in seconds, but some lasted a minute or two.In most animal species that would be that.However,many of the pig conflicts Dr. Norscia observed had interested parties beyond the protagonists(主角).He therefore wanted to understand the role of these bystanders in resolving fights—and what this says about pigs’cognitive(认知)abilities.Since there was usually not enough time for a bystander pig to intervene during the heat of a conflict(though this did occur),he and his colleagues looked at what happened in the three minutes directly following an aggressive interaction.Sometimes,they found,the protagonists made up on their own—for instance,by touching noses.On other occasions,though,a third pig stepped in.Sometimes this bystander acted as a peacemaker,engaging with the attacker and reducing the number of subsequent attacks compared with what might otherwise have been expected.Sometimes,by contrast,the bystander engaged with the victim.This appeared to calm the victim down,for it reduced anxiety-related behavior such as shaking and scratching.8.Why does the author mention Winston Churchill in the first paragraph?A.To prove pigs are clever.B.To show pigs are inspirational. C.To state Churchill loves pigs.D.To introduce the topic of the text. 9.What probably decides on the pigs’roles in pig conflict?A.Their ages.B.Their weight.C.Their safety needs.D.Their cognitive abilities.10.Why did Ivan Norscia and his colleagues conduct the study?A.To comprehend the role of bystanders in conflict resolution.B.To figure out the relationship between pigs.C.To record the details of216pig conflicts.D.To find out the reason for pigs’conflicts.11.How will the bystander interact with the victim after a fight?A.By shaking it.B.By touching its nose.C.By scratching its back.D.By offering comfort to it.Our clothes do a lot for us.They keep us warm in the winter or cool while we’re working out.They let us dress to impress or comfortably veg out on the couch with the TV on. But some researchers think our clothes could be doing even more.Those scientists and engineers are dreaming up new ways to make clothes safer,more comfortable or just moreconvenient.Some ideas for new clothes aim to protect people from harm.One new shoe design,for example,features pop-out spikes(鞋钉)on the sole that grip the ground.This could help people keep their footing on slippery or uneven ground.A new fabric coating,meanwhile, could absorb and neutralize(中和)some chemical weapons.That coating is made from a metal-organic framework that breaks down harmful compounds.It could offer protection to people in war-torn countries.Not all advanced clothing is designed to save lives.Some could just make clothes more comfortable.One day,for instance,you may not need to layer up to stay warm.Fabric filled with nanowires could reflect your body heat back onto your skin.Electric current humming through those metal threads could provide warmth,too.This maybe especially useful for hikers,soldiers or others working in super cold conditions.Some researchers have dream up wholly new uses for clothing—like turning wearers into walking power outlets.Flexible solar panels sewn into fabric could absorb the sun to recharge phones or other devices on the go.Another team threaded fabric with magnetized (磁化的)copper and silver to write data into fabrics.Such data-packed fabric could be used as a hands-free key or form of ID.Many of these ideas have not yet left the lab—and they’re still pretty far from hitting retail(零售)shelves.But inventors hope these and other innovations could someday let you get more from your clothes.12.What do the underlined words“veg out”in paragraph1probably mean? A.Relax.B.Stand out.C.Work.D.Dream about. 13.Why do the new shoes feature pop-out spikes on the sole?A.To make them comfortable.B.To make them fashionable.C.To prevent people from slipping.D.To turn wearers into walking power outlets.14.What kind of clothes are suitable for hikers?A.Coats filled with nanowires.B.Shoes with pop-out spikes on the sole. C.Clothes with a new fabric coating.D.Clothes made of data-packed fabric. 15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Many of these ideas are not realistic.B.Many smart clothes are too expensive to afford.C.People will benefit more from their clothes in future.D.Many comfortable clothes will come to the market soon.二、七选五How to Speak English FluentlyImmerse(沉浸)yourself in English every day____16____The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day.There’s a special language learning method called“immersion”.With immersion,you try to surround yourself with the language as much as you can in your day-to-day activities.Accept that English grammar has a lot of exceptionsSometimes,you can find patterns in English grammar,but other times English doesn’t make sense at all.It’s easy to get stuck on learning how to speak English properly if you try to find a reason for everything.____17____So the best thing to do is just memorize the strange exceptions and move on.Learn intonation,body language and gesturesIntonation is the“rise and fall”or tone changes in how a person speaks.Body language is how a person uses their own body to support(or go against)what they mean.Gestures are hand and body movements that work together with what someone is saying.____18____One way to learn is to just watch how native English speakers communicate with each other.Share your opinions onlineTo really learn English speaking,you need to learn how to express yourself in English. Even if you have ideas for conversations,it can be hard to know how to put them into your own words.You can practice this by participating in conversations online.____19____ Get direct feedbackTo improve your speaking,you can ask directly for feedback.Since you usually can’t do this with casual conversations,it might be worth setting up a language exchange,where you can ask the person to tell you directly if any of your sentences sounds awkward or unnatural. ____20____Hello Talk also allows you to chat in English,and then your conversation partner will literally mark out your mistakes.A.Sometimes,English is just strange!B.There are many options for practicing your writing skills.C.Listen carefully when someone asks you a question in English.D.It’s not easy to learn these three things because they seem very natural.E.Posting on social media and leaving comments on articles are good approaches. F.Studying English for an hour once a week isn’t usually enough to make any real progress. G.There are even apps for this,like Go Correct,where you can connect with English teachers.三、完形填空I am a teacher in a famous co-education English medium Secondary School.Our school provides necessary____21____for disabled students like a wheel-chair,lift,separate wash rooms and many more.One of our students,Kiran gradually developed“Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy”,a severe muscular disease and became completely____22____on others.When the school reopened for its new academic session in June2017,as class teacher I found that Kiran was not____23____for his new session.I____24____for one month. Meanwhile,I enquire about his____25____with his younger sister and____26____that Kiran’s condition became worse than before.With the____27____from the school authorities, I____28____him at his house along with his classmates and____29____him by giving examples of some of the most successful personalities with disabilities.They____30____even the fully functional people and claimed their____31____such as,Stephen Hawking,Hellen Keller and Stevie Wonder.Kiran’s classmates____32____to help him with his studies.Kiran now____33____his studies with the help of his teachers and classmates.At present,he is among-st one of the favorites for his teachers and fellow students.The boys of his class take____34____to play chess with him.We always try to make him____35____and bring a smile on his face.21.A.sources B.protection C.facilities D.education 22.A.dependent B.impressed C.focused D.hard 23.A.late B.suitable C.responsible D.present 24.A.waited B.cheered up C.hesitated D.dropped out 25.A.future B.health C.work D.safety 26.A.learned B.remembered C.expected D.admitted27.A.assistance B.permission C.experience D.invitation 28.A.missed B.instructed C.visited D.accompanied 29.A.saved B.persuaded C.praised D.encouraged 30.A.rose above B.fell behind C.picked out D.took on 31.A.identity B.fame C.wealth D.power 32.A.allowed B.witnessed C.promised D.remembered 33.A.considers B.continues C.finishes D.quits 34.A.steps B.measures C.notes D.turns 35.A.great B.quiet C.proud D.happy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个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

AThe Ryman Prize is an international award aimed at encouraging the best and brightest thinkers in the world to focus on ways to improve the health of older people.The world's ageing population means that in some parts of the globe—including much of the Western world—the population aged75+is expected to almost triple(增至三倍)in the next30 years.Older people face not only the severe threat of COVID-19,but also the burden of chronic diseases including Alzheimers and diabetes.At the same time the health of older people is one of the most underfunded and poorly resourced areas of research.We're offering a$250,000annual prize for the world's best discovery,development,advance or achievement that enhances quality of life for older people.The Ryman Prize is awarded each year by the Prime Minister of New Zealand.It was first awarded in2015to Gabi Holows,co-founder of the Hollows Foundation,for her tireless work to restore sight for millions of older people in the developing world.Since then world-leading researchers Professor Henry Brodaty,Professor Peter St George-Hyslop,Professor Takanori Shibata,Dr MichaelFehlings and Professor Mia Kivipelto have all won the prize for their outstanding work.In2021Professor Kenneth Rock wood,a Canadian geriatrician,academic and anti-ageism campaigner whose research into frailty(虚弱)has had a huge impact,was awarded the prize by Jacinda Ardern,Prime Minister of New Zealand.If you have a great idea or have achieved something remarkable,we would love to hear from you.Entries for the2022Ryman Prize will close at5pm on Friday,Dec.30,2022(New Zealand time).Go to for more information.21.What is the aim of the Ryman Prize?A.To encourage people to donate more to help the elderly.B.To stimulate fresh efforts to tackle the problems of old age.C.To call on people across the world to take part in a competition.D.To introduce the achievements in improving older people's life.22.What does the author mainly intend to tell us in paragraph2?A.The definition of aging population.B.The common diseases older people may suffer.C.The rapidly growing number of older people.D.The background of setting the prize.23.How many Ryman Prizes have been awarded?A.5.B.6.C.7.D.4.BToday's gift was to my friend Oscar in Portland who is unhorsed.I got him a$50Kroger card so that he can buy fresh fruits and vegetables.Oscar and I have been talking a lot about gut(肠道)health and how important nutrition is.Oscar told me that it's really hard to get good food.Most of what is given out is past the sell-by dates.He is always grateful for the food,but he has an autoimmune(自身免疫的)disease so these kinds of foods are really making it worse.Now that spring is here,hopefully,he can get fresher produce.I told him about the book I'm reading by Will Bulsiewicz,MD called Fiber Fueled.I'm learning so much.Today is day70since I started learning to make meals just from plants.The more I learn about plant-fueled eating,the better I feel about this decision.And this book is specifically about taking advantage of the body's capacity to cure itself.So my friend ordered the audio from the library and it will come in soon.He wants to learn about this too since he has serious autoimmune issues.That's why he lost his job and then his apartment.Oscar is a young man I can help.I want him to heal,and find a job and a home again.I know he can do it.And I won't stop helping him until that happens.I told him that.Once my social security checks come in,I plan to make sure he gets Kroger cards every time I get paid so that he has plenty of healthy produce.Oscar's page on Twitter is@MyHomelessMeals.More than anything,he shows gratitude for every single person who helps him on a daily basis.He always shares what we send if he can,too. He recently joined Service Space because he said their Mission Statement is aligned with his values.He's quite an exceptional young man.24.Why did the foods Oscar received make his disease worse?A.They are rich in fat.B.They are a little raw.C.They are hard to digest.D.They are not so fresh.25.What's the main idea of the third paragraph?A.The author introduced a proper book to Oscar.B.Oscar's disease made him lose everything.C.Oscar wanted to cure his disease quickly.D.The author gave Oscar a book as a gift.26.How will the author help Oscar cure his illness?A.By helping Oscar get a well-paid job.B.By making sure Oscar can get healthy food.C.By recommending some restaurants to Oscar.D.By introducing Oscar to some famous doctors.27.What does the underlined part"is aligned with”in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Transforms.B.Matches.C.Allows.D.Controls.CJessica Damiano moved into a new home in the spring of2005.At the time,she was delighted to see a flowering plant growing in the garden.She did not know the name of the beautiful plant.But that did not matter to her.She loved it!Two years later,Damiano graduated from Cornell University's master gardener program.She worked as a gardening writer for a local newspaper.That is when she found out the truth.She discovered that her favorite plant was called purple loose strife and that it was considered"invasive (入侵的)"in her home state of New York.However,she told herself that the plant was not spreading on the property and that it was not out of control.Then she learned more.Some plants known to be invasive are what Damiano calls"wolves in sheep's clothing."This means they may seem harmless and well-contained in the garden but become harmful in other places.Birds eat the seeds of invasive plants and spread them to other places.Those seeds grow into new plants that outgrow native plants.This is because invasive plants often are not eaten by local wildlife,which would otherwise keep them under control.If not controlled,invasive plants grow larger and push out native plants that provide food and shelter for birds,insects,and small animals. This harms the local environment.Many state environmental agencies ban the sale and use of plants found to be harmful to human or ecological health.But some invasive plants are not officially considered invasive. Others may be listed as invasive in one area but not another.And some invasive plants continue to be sold in stores.So,what is a gardener to do?Damiano says to avoid any plants sold as"vigorous" "fast-spreading""quick-climbing"or a“rapid self-sower".She warns that these are all sellers'code words(暗号)for invasive plants.Next,learn about your local area:Which plants are invasive?And which plants are native?Ask government agencies,universities and colleges,and environmental groups.You can also do your own research at libraries or online.In the end,Damiano replaced that plant with the native and equally beautiful blazing star plant.This plant has been growing happily without problems in her garden for the past15years.28.How did Damiano react when she first learned purple loose strife was“invasive”?A.She felt regretful for loving it.B.She reported it to the government.C.She didn't take the fact seriously.D.She got rid of the plant immediately.29.Why can invasive plants grow better than native plants?A.They need less water.B.They have fewer natural enemies.C.They adapt to the environment quicker.D.They have longer roots and bigger leaves.30.What does the author mainly intend to express in paragraph5?A.Policies about invasive plants vary in different areas.B.Some invasive plants are not harmful.C.Invasive plants are rarely seen in stores.D.The government's attitude to invasive plants is improper.31.Which is a method the gardener can use to avoid planting invasive plants?A.Give up any plants that sell well in the local area.B.Choose plants that can provide food for wild animals.C.Refuse to say the code words of sellers for invasive plants.D.Refer to books for information on which plants are invasive.DTraci and Dave Gagnon met in the cloud,so it was only natural that their wedding would be held there as well.The pair—or rather,their digital avatars(替身)——married on Labor Day weekend in a ceremony hosted by Virbela,a firm that creates virtual environments for work, learning,and events.Ms.Gagnon's avatar was accompanied by her close friend's avatar.Mr.Gagnon's avatar stood there watching as his friend's avatar walked up to the platform and gave a toast.At the reception,7-year-old twin avatars(the ring bearer and flower girl)danced.At present,it's anyone's guess how the immersive virtual world known as the metaverse(元宇宙),which few of us understand,will change the traditional wedding.However,the prospects of having an event outside of reality's restrictions are interesting enough for us to think.Technology has been used in ceremonies more than ever before as a result of COVID-19. There have been Zoom marriages,and some in-person ceremonies now include a broadcast component for those who are unable to st year,a couple whose wedding was postponed due to COVID-19held a ceremony within the popular video game Animal Crossing.It's worth noting,though,that,like a video game wedding,any weddings that take place only in the metaverse are now illegal.Experts predict that the metaverse will take these virtual celebrations to new heights,providing couples with nearly limitless choices."There are no boundaries,"said Sandy Hammer,co-founder of Allseated,a company that develops digital wedding planning tools. Consider guest lists in the tens of thousands.Non-fungible tokens,or NFTs,are used in gift registries.Perhaps even weddings in space as a destination."They're going to take their pals on a space rocket,"Ms.Hammer added,imagining wedding parties digitally travelling around the world.“A bride can send her guests into the metaverse by saying,'I want my morning session in Italy,and my evening session in Paris.'"32.What's the author's purpose in describing the ceremony?A.To make readers better understand the wedding in the cloud.B.To show how exciting the wedding in the cloud was.C.To express his concern over the future of traditional weddings.D.To praise Traci and Dave Gagnon's daring spirit.33.How does the author mainly develop paragraph4?A.By providing reasons.B.By following the time order.C.By making comparisons.D.By giving examples.34.What is Sandy Hammer's attitude towards the metaverse?A.Uncaring.B.Opposed.C.Favorable.D.Doubtful.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Forms of Modern MarriagesB.The Prospects of the MetaverseC.Getting Married in the MetaverseD.Holding Events Regardless of Reality第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

We had various games and activities, including relay races, tug-of-war, collective sit-ups and long rope jumping. The weather was perfect and the entire school participated enthusiastically. It was a day filled with teamwork, sportsmanship and lots of cheering. My class won the championship in the collective sit-ups. Overall, the Fun Sports Day was a memorable experience. It was not just about winning, but it was also about having fun and creating lasting memories.I hope this gives you a glimpse of the event. I can't wait to hear about any similar events you might have in New Zealand.Yours sincerely,Li Hua 读后续写Fred found Tom trembling with terror outside their house, without Katy. “Where is Katy?” he asked. Tom seemed to have had no thought but of his own escape. He said, “Katy is in the house!” It was no time for words, but for instant action. The staircase was already on fire. There was but one way to reach Katy, which was full of danger. A ladder was quickly brought, and Fred mounted it, pushing his way into the room where the poor child lay nearly choked to death with smoke. He roused her with some difficulty, carried her to the window and then brought her down the ladder.They had narrowly escaped from the house before it collapsed. Fred and Katy had barely escaped with their lives. There were several scratches on Fred's face and neck, but he made nothing of them. He handed Katy to Tom, and it was then that Tom finally burst into crying and hugged his sister tightly. Making sure Katy was unhurt, Tom turned to Fred and said “I'm so sorry” “Thank you” again and again. Fred smiled and felt a sense of pride, because he came to realize that true manliness is in harmony with gentleness, kindness and bravery.详细解析(仅供参考)阅读理解A篇本文是一篇应用文,介绍了The Top 100 上的三家中餐厅。

What do these four programs have in common?A.They are all held in Nepal.B.Their activities center on education.C.They are available only in winter breaks.D.Their minimum duration is two weeks.I always listen to my local public radio station while I’m driving. My focus often changes as I stare out at the road ahead. But I became fully attentive on a recent morning once I realized the entire newscast was dedicated to local wildlife.There was something about the pack of some 30 to 50 javelinas (野猪) that ruined a golf course near Sedona, Arizona, followed by talk of the recent sighting of a jaguar (美洲虎), a species that ranged across Arizona and Sonora, Mexico, until construction of the border wall blocked the way. Finally, there was an update on Mexican wolf reintroduction efforts in New Mexico and Arizona. The results were mixed: Nine of the wolves had died or been killed recently.As I sat in my car, listening to the news, I felt helpless, even mournful. What would it take for most of us to understand that the javelinas’ behavior on that heavily irrigated golf course in the desert was a sign that maybe the course shouldn’t be in the desert to begin with? The way I saw it, the javeli nas weren’t invading (入侵) the site; they were reclaiming it. After all, the javelinas’ needs—for food and space—are more basic than a few privileged humans’ desire to play golf.As for the Arizona Mexican wolf pup reintroduction effort that I heard about in the news, for the past 25 years, scientists have been working hard to restore the native wolf population, and yet are unable to remove its greatest threat. Today, almost 250 Mexican wolves are believed to be in the wild, and every year, humans illegally kill one out of ten. The wolf recovery effort is necessary, but it’s extremely difficult because we humans keep getting in the way.I need to tackle my helplessness, because helplessness leads to no longer wanting to take care of what matters most. Therefore, I think that it must be a good sign that my local news now regularlycovers the challenges of coexistence and possible solutions to our problems. That’s progress and fuels my hope.4.

Why did the javelinas destroy the golf course according to the author?A.To meet basic needs.B.To protect the desert.C.To oppose golf playing.D.To attack human beings.6.

D.Indifferent.Authors are upset after tech companies started using their books to train artificial intelligence without letting them know or seeking their permission. They worry about copyright and loss of income, among other issues.According to CNN, the system is called Books3, and according to an investigation by The Atlantic, the system is based on a collection of pirated (盗版的) e-books including all genres, from fiction to poetry. Books help generative AI systems with learning how to communicate information.The Atlantic article notes that some of the text that’s training AI on how to use language is taken from Wikipedia and other websites. But high-quality generative AI requires higher-quality input than what is usually found on the internet — that is, it requires the kind found in books.Many authors apparently don’t view the use of their books to train artificial intelligence as an honor. Rather, it’s a shortcut that robs them of their due, they say. CNN reported that Nora Roberts, who writes romantic novels, has 206 books in the database —“second only to William Shakespeare.”“The database is all kinds of wrong. We are human beings, we are writers and we are being exploited by people who want to use our work, without permission or compensation (赔偿金), to‘write’ books, scripts, essays because it’s cheap and easy, ” she said in a statement to CNN.Not everyone is upset, however, by use of their work to train AI. Ian Bogost, author of some popular books, wrote a column for The Atlantic. Bogost claims that successful art is beyond its creator’s plans, noting that an author cannot accurately predict a book’s audience. “To complain this unexpected use for my writing is to decline all of the other unpredictable uses for it. Speaking as a writer, that makes me feel bad.”8. What contributes to some authors’ dissatisfaction with Books3?A.It is unable to train AI.B.It uses their works illegally.C.It fails to improve their income.D.It sells books without permission.9. What is mainly presented in paragraph 3 concerning Books3?A.The reason it was created.B.The high quality it possesses.C.The benefit it has brought.D.The bond it has with Wikipedia.10. What does the underlined word “exploited” in paragraph 4 mean?A.Made fun of. B.Caught up with.C.Taken advantage of. D.Looked down upon.11. Which statement would Ian Bogost probably agree with?A.It’s necessary to predict a book’s audience.B.Being involved in Books3 is hardly an honor.C.Good art should be limited to creators’ plans.D.It’s acceptable for books to be used to train AI.Soda bottles and sour cream containers—these plastics typically arrive at recycling plants mixed together in the same bin. But because they are made of different monomers (单体), they must be sorted into different streams before they can be melted to make new products.“Until about a year ago, everybody thought the only thing you could do is take a plastic, break it back down to a monomer and then re-form it,” says Sanat Kumar, a chemical engineer at Columbia University. To seek new solutions to old recycling problems, his team had to solve a fundamentalchemical difficulty: when different plastics are melted together, their various monomers tend to separate from one another. They have developed a process that allows different kinds of plastic to be recycled together. Their findings, reported recently in Nature, could give new life to many items that end up in landfills.The new process solves this problem by adding chemicals called universal dynamic cross-linkers (交联剂) to the mix. Just as soap brings together oil and water, which creates a bridge, allowing the oil and water to mix together and form a stable liquid, these cross-linkers(when applied under heat)form covalent molecular bonds (共价键) that attach the diverse monomers together. These materials can then be melted and remade again and again because the cross-linkers can break and re-form their bonds.The researchers hope the technique could eventually help handle more plastic waste—but it’s not yet cheap enough to be widely used at existing recycling facilities. Still, Kumar wishes it would be one way to help recyclers address the plastic waste crisis. “The plastics problem is huge,” he says, “and you’re going to have to look for multiple solutions.”12. The difficulty of recycling different plastics together lies in how to ________.A.re-form them more quicklyB.prevent various monomers being apartC.break them down thoroughlyD.separate various monomers successfully13. How does the author explain the new process?A.By listing facts.B.By quoting a report.C.By providing examples.D.By making a comparison.14. What can be inferred about the new technique from the last paragraph?A.It still needs some improvement.B.It will solve the plastics problem.C.It has already gained great popularity.D.It has been affordable for most plants.15. What can be a suitable title for the test?A.Monomers Are Still Important for Plastics RecyclingB.The Use of Cross-linkers Outperformed Other Chemicals.C.Multiple Solutions Are Needed for Mixed-Plastics RecyclingD.New Chemical Process Offers Hope for Mixed-Plastics RecyclingHow to give effective feedback (反馈)In the ever-evolving landscape of personal and professional growth, feedback serves as a compass (指南针) guiding our journey towards improvement. 16 Constructive feedback should follow several principles.17 It’s not unusual to tell someone about something that upset or pleased you six months later. It’s also easy for people to start from the point of view of “everything you do is rubbish”, especially when things are not going well. But don’t. Think about exact and precise occasions and behavior that are still fresh in both the giver’s and receiver’s minds.Lay stress on behavior, not personality. Your feedback should target how they act, what effects it has on you or how it makes you feel. Remember that you are making no comment on what type of person they are, or what they believe or value. 18Focus on improvement rather than criticism. It is expressed in a manner that encourages growth and avoids being negative. To take it a step further, it also provides suggestions for change. 19 It involves putting constructive criticism between positive or encouraging comments. For example, when discussing a project with an employee, start by praising their hard work, then add the areas for improvement, and conclude with encouragement.Offering effective feedback to others is a win-win act. 20 Both of you get a slice of personal development. To develop better feedback skills, you need to keep practicing and make it a habit. Anyway, practice makes perfect!When I first built my website 3 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing.Naturally, I went to various websites and blogs for _________. I noticed features like social media buttons, advertisements, comments and more. At first glance, these seemed _________ since every website had them. But as I _________ my site, I found they were not. Instead, a clean, user-friendly design had _________ effects. Without advertisements or social media buttons, more people were _________ in my articles. It seemed that the _________ my website became, the better the results were.Later, I noticed the _________ of simplicity in other areas of life.As a kid, I was too thin. As an athlete, I needed to get stronger. So I spent hours designing the right combination of exercises. But when I _________ got stronger, I assumed that I was missing some kind of exercise.

Surprisingly, there was a noticeable __________ in my strength in just four months.From __________ to workouts, my skills d idn’t improve overnight.
