2022-2023学年河北省保定市定州市第二中学高一下学期5月月考英语试题1. Famous Attractions in the USAHawaiiHawaii is the name of a state in the USA, located in the central Pacific Ocean. It has one of the most isolated population an the face of the Earth. This is because it is 3,857 km away from California and thousands of kilometers away from Japan and China. Hawaii was included as the 50th state of the USA, on August 21, 1959, and it is made up of 8 major islands. Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii and is located at the island of Oahu.Grand CanyonSituated in the Grand Canyon National Park, the Grand Canyon is located in the state of Arizona in the USA. The mile-high, multicolored rock walls and sandy slopes are enough to keep you lost in its natural beauty. Undoubtedly, the Grand Canyon is filled with powerful and inspiring landscapes, largely because of its big size.Empire State BuildingStanding tall in the New York City, the Empire State Building is a 102-story Art Deco skyscraper. It is one of the prides of the United States. The building is a popular landmark of New York tourism and reflects the history and architecture of New York. It describes America’s industrial revolution and has played an important role in featuring American culture.Statue of LibertyThe Statue of Liberty was a friendship gift from the people of France to the people of the USA, on the completion of 100 years of independence. It is a universal symbol of freedom. Located on the Liberty Island of New York, occupying 12 acres of land, it welcomes all those who come to New York as tourists and also welcomes the people who are returning to their native place.1.

Which is usually said to be a symbol of freedom?A.Hawaii. B.Grand Canyon.C.Empire State Building. D.Statue of Liberty.2. Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she says. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a pediatric oncology (儿科肿瘤) social worker using dolls to help her young patients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those good dolls, but for the kids who had lost their legs or hair, there were none they could relate to.So, eight years ago, when a friend said that her child was disabled, Jandrisevits knew what might help the youth through the challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, 'You are perfect the way you are,’ and it is important to build the kids’ self-confidence,” she says.Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand, which looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo of the happy child and doll on-line, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who had lost a leg.Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits made dolls for children with different physical defects (缺陷)—in short, dolls that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me. Working out of her home in Milwaukee, based on photos sent by kids’ parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits takes about seven hours to make each doll. A GoFundMe page helps her make up for costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.In all, she has made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is undefeated. As she explains on her GoFundMe page,“Every kid, r egardless of age or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”1. What is the value of good dolls in the eyes of Jandrisevits?A.Helping some patients learn to make the dollsB.Letting some patients see themselves in the dolls.C.Letting some patients believe that they’re perfect.D.Helping some patients adapt to the new school life.2. Who does Jandrisevits specially make dolls for?A.Sick doctors B.Adult patients.C.Patients’ parents.D.Disabled children.3. Which words can best describe Jandrisevits?A.Helpful and handy. B.Romantic and funny.C.Frank and humorous. D.Athletic and energetic.4. What is the text mainly about?A.Serve patients.B.That’s my doll.C.Make dolls by yourself.D.What happy kids they are.3. A new study shows the singing noises made by humpback whales(座头鲸) might be a sign of being lonely. Scientists who recorded humpback whale behavior in Australia discovered that fewer whales made the singing noises as their population grew.“Humpback whale song is loud and travels far in the ocean,” said marine biologist Dunlop of the University of Queensland in Brisbane. She has long studied humpback whales and helped lead the new study. Her work has centered on humpbacks that reproduce near Australia’s G reat Barrier Reef. She made an unexpected discovery as the number of whales sharply rose following the end of commercial whaling. “It was getting more difficult to actually find singers,” she said. “When there were fewer of them, there was a lot of singing. Now that there are lots of them there is no need to sing so much.”Scientists first began to hear and study the songs of the humpback whales in the 1970s. They used underwater microphones to do so. Only male whales sing. Scientists think the whales sing to display their power.Eastern Australia’s humpback whales came close to disappearing in the 1960s, when their number dropped to around 200. But over time the population began to regrow, climbing to about 27, 000 whales by 2015. That number is near pre-whaling levels. As the number of whales increase, their singing behaviors changed. Dunlop said while 2 in 10 males made wailing noises in 2004, 10 years later the number had dropped to 1 in 10.It is said that humpback whales must have been singers long before whale fishing diminished their numbers. But the new study proves how necessary their beautiful songs were to their survival and recovery. Clearly singing became extremely valuable when their numbers were very low.1. What is the probable reason why humpback whales sing according to the new study?A.Danger. B.Hunting. C.Hopelessness. D.Loneliness.2. What is Dunlop’s surprising discovery in her research?A.Humpback whales always keep silent.B.The more humpback whales, the less singing.C.The number of humpback whales increases sharply.D.The farther humpback whales’ songs go, the better.3. What is the purpose of male humpback whales’ singing based on the first discovery?A.To show off their strength. B.To sound a warning.C.To leave for their home. D.To shout for help.4. What does the underlined word “diminished” in the last paragraph mean?A.Counted. B.Doubted. C.Protected. D.Reduced.4. Restaurants, farmers and food businesses are turning to chemistry and physics to deal with the problem of fo od waste. Some companies are testing coverings to slow the fruits’ ripening(成熟) process and packets to keep food fresh. Others are developing digital sensors that can tell when meat is safe to eat.Experts say growing awareness of the costs of food waste has led to more efforts to deal with the problem. ReFED is a group that studies food waste. It estimates 225,000 kilograms of food can be kept out of waste areas each year with special high-tech coverings.But the cost can be a barrier for some companies and shoppers. Kroger, the largest food-store company in the US, ended its deal with Apeel Sciences in 2022. The deal ended because Kroger said shoppers were not willing to pay more for fruits with Apeel’s special covering to keep them fresh. Many companies are working on ways to help reduce food waste. A Sweden-based company is trying developing a sensor that can show if meat is safe to eat by measuring the buildup of bacteria inside its container. And Ryp Labs, based in the US and Belgium, is working on a sticker for fruits and vegetables that would release(释放) gas to slow ripening.Some companies find it better to use proven technology in new ways. For example, Chicago-based Hazel Technologies has been trying selling a chemical compound(化合物), called 1-MCP, which is used in a room to slow the fruits’ ripening process. The company now sells packets that can slowly release 1-MCP into small containers of fruits.“The science is promising, but it is only part of the solution,’” said Yvette Cabrera. She is thedir ector of food waste for the Natural Resources Defense Council. “Most food waste happens at home. Reducing food sizes, buying smaller quantities or improving the accuracy of freshness date could have even more effects than new technology. Overall as a socie ty, we don’t value food as it should be valued,” Cabrera said.1. How does the author start paragraph 1?A.By showing experiments. B.By quoting experts’ words.C.By listing data. D.By giving examples.2. Why did Kroger give up Apeel’s products?A.They were not convenient to use.B.Food stores found them ineffective.C.Customers disliked paying extra money.D.They might cause pollution to the fruits.3. What do Ryp Labs and Hazel Technologies both try doing to slow fruits’ ripening?A.Building storage rooms. B.Using chemical methods.C.Making packets. D.Developing a sensor.4. What is the text mainly about?A.Ways of reducing food waste.B.Benefits of saving food at home.C.Kinds of fresh food in the market.D.Funds of dealing with food waste.5. Improving Your PersonalityYou can improve your personality with some suggestions given below.·Following moral values. To be successful in a career, you must be smart. But being smart doesn’t mean forgetting the importance of ideal personality values. Successful men are those who are honest in their work. 1 In short, they do things based on various moral values.· 2 It’s important for us to value others’ opinions as much as our own. So it becomes very important for us to give as much importance to the thoughts of others as we give to our own. To get success in any field, along with being aware, it is key to understanding the views of others, especially in a job in which you have to work with someone other than yourself.One thing to note here is that some people have a habit of refusing to listen to other persons. 3 And they are doing things behind in their jobs. But too much agreeableness(随和性)can also be harmful and it is suitable or unsuitable depending on the kind of the job.·Finding the motivators(动力). You need skills to inspire others. Inspiration comes from within, and it’s something you feel or value. 4 Successful leaders understand it. Leaders observe each person and find out what the person needs or wants. They make a genuine effort to understand individual needs, desires and feelings through observation, communication and investigation.·Using close observation. Use your powers of observation while observing people. 5 When something inspires people, pay attention to it. Enter your comments on paper if necessary. When they talk about the things that make them sad, look into their eyes, reading any sign of pain and discomfort you find there.6. It was the early 1980’s. I was a boy then, and my best_________wasn’t another little boy or girl but an 80-year-old man, Frankie. We lived four miles from town. My brothers were much_________ than me. They had no time to have fun with their younger brother. So I spent most of mytime_________alone near our home. Finally, I was_________to Little Frankie’s house.

安徽省金榜教育阶段性大联考2023-2024学年高一下学期5月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Are you looking for inspiration for your next travel destination? Lonely Planet has published its yearly list of top places to go. Whether you’re looking for adventure, culture, or value, there’s something for every type of traveler.Top City: NairobiNairobi, the Kenyan capital, was chosen for its unique music and dance culture, and impressive local food. Nairobi National Park is a must-see, where visitors can see over 400 species wandering the open grass plains while high buildings twinkle on the horizon.Top Country: Mongolia Mongolia is loved for its wide-open spaces, adventure activities, and unique food. The Mongolian government has announced 2023 through 2025as the “Years to Visit Mongolia,” easing entry conditions for international travelers and improving public facilities, including a new $650 million airport.Top Sustainable (可持续发展的) Travel Destination: SpainThe publisher also recommended Spain for the country’s efforts to expand renewable energy, to develop off-season travel, and to bring tourism to new destinations, such as the port city of Valencia, easing pressures on hot spots such as Barcelona.Top Best-Value Location: The American MidwestThe American Midwest, including the cities of Chicago and Detroit, is also on the list, as it offers a high-quality travel experience at a reasonable cost. Visitors can enjoy excellent services and facilities without having to spend too much money.Top Beach Destination: Donegal Donegal, Ireland’s most northwestern county, has the country’s longest coastline and over 100 beaches, where visitors can enjoy the highest sea cliffs in Europe.1.What do Nairobi and Mongolia have in common?A.Tasty food.B.Diverse culture.C.Breathtaking views.D.Wide-open Spaces. 2.Why is Spain on the list?A.It improves public facilities for international travelers.B.It provides sustainable travel destinations for visitors.C.It has the world’s longest coastline and plenty of beaches.D.It offers a high-quality travel experience at a reasonable cost.3.In which section of a newspaper can you find this text?A.Architecture.B.Environment.C.Tourism.D.Publishing.The topic of China’s “slash youth” has fueled heated debate on social media recently, drawing attention to the diverse pursuits of the younger generation.The s lash youth, which could also be called slashers or slash-generation — means those who refuse to be defined or bound by just one personal identity. They are keen to present themselves as multiple and sometimes different identities, such as a nurse and model, a teacher and stand-up comedian, and an engineer and band player. Rather than material comforts, they pursue meaningful achievement.A diverse career can enable them to develop new experiences and talents as well as social and professional networks, leading to greater flexibility in life and work, recognition and satisfaction.A study on “slash youth” published in the China Youth Research magazine analyzes the background of this phenomenon: with part of modern society’s structured organization and stability norms (规范) broken, flexible labor markets and structural unemployment has appeared, removing the sense of job security of the young people in employment. Young people also face the problem of self-realization, including the sense of powerlessness, lost sense of value and lack of self-identity in the profession, which forces them to re-find the meaning of work.“The ‘slash life’ shows that our society is becoming more and more diversified and inclusive, and it welcomes everyone’s self-fulfillment,” said Shi Yanrong, an associate researcher from Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences. “Young people no longer have to rely on work and money for their sense of self-worth. They tend to create their own identities.” The researcher added that against the background that people have multiple interests and are willing to pay for these interests nowadays, the “slash life” of the youth would drive the growth of a new economy, just as animation culture affected the market.4.What do we know about the slash youth?A.They tend to undertake multiple careers.B.They are keen to pursue material comforts.C.They enjoy posting themselves on social media.D.They can easily adjust themselves to challenges in life.5.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The importance of flexible labor markets.B.Reasons for the appearance of slash youth.C.The pursuit of the youth in their profession.D.Causes of losing self-identity among the youth.6.What does Shi Yanrong think of the slash life?A.It boosts the rise of a new economy.B.It helps increase people’s independence.C.It inspires young people’s creativity at work.D.It enables young people to earn high incomes.7.What is the purpose of the text?A.To provide career guidance.B.To analyze a cultural difference.C.To introduce a social phenomenon.D.To share a unique life experience.Ignoring message is frowned upon (皱眉) in this always-on times. And according to most people, dropping out of communication is blamed as “ghosting”, which in the years since the term became widespread, has become a deadly killer of digital communications.But in these exhausting times, when so many are overburdened with family responsibilities, stress, grief and anxiety, perhaps we should let go of the outdated, demanding requirement to participate in endless back-and-forth conversations. As Daniel Post Senning of the Emily Post Institution said, “You have to be a civil and decent person, but you don’t have to give your time and attention to everyone who asks for it.”In an era when we understand more and more the importance of rest and time away from screens, triaging (优先选择) can be necessary for our peace of mind and relationships with the people in our lives: When we are on vacation. When it’s after 7 pm. When we are at the dinner table. When we are exercising. If you don’t reply immediately to a message during one of these times, don’t apologize. Just reply when you can. Or don’t.Is triaging a blanket permission to fall into unexplained silence or become a bottleneck to your colleagues’ work? No. Instead, establish boundaries with your work colleagues frankly so that they don’t panic when they can’t reach you.It’s also worth asking yourself who is putting the pressure on for immediate response. Perhaps it’s not the message sender, but you.8.Which statement do most people agree with?A.Giving full attention to whoever asks for it is a must.B.Dropping out of a conversation equals killing other people.C.It’s considered improper to cut off from an ongoing conversation.D.It’s highly advised to carry on conversations despite heavy burdens.9.How does the author develop paragraph 3?A.By listing figures.B.By giving examples.C.By comparing facts.D.By stating reasons.10.What does the underlined word “bottleneck” in paragraph 4 mean?A.Barrier.B.Milestone.C.Opportunity.D.Masterpiece. 11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Important Emails: Send Them Quickly B.Urgent Calls: Answer Them Immediately C.Unfriendly People: Avoid Them Carefully D.Unnecessary Messages: Ignore Them DirectlyArtificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes.The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earth-quakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “It’s a matter of milliseconds, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge resultand could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has 300 earth-quake stations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes.Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.12.How does the AI forecast earthquakes?A.By identifying data from the satellites.B.By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.C.By modeling data based on earthquake recordings.D.By monitoring changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.13.What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3?A.The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.B.The importance of preparing for earthquakes.C.The significance of developing the AI prediction.D.The limitation of AI algorithms in earthquake prediction.14.What will the follow-up research focus on?A.Conducting tests in different locations.B.Applying the AI approach to other fields.C.Building more earthquake stations in Texas.D.Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy.15.Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology?A.Stable but outdated.B.Effective but costly.C.Potential and economical.D.Pioneering and promising.Money habits are the small daily decisions we make that influence how we spend and save our money. It might be challenging to change these habits, but with the following tips, we can make improvements to achieve our financial objectives.Taking a careful look at your existing spending habits is the first step. 16 It can make you realize the potential issues on your spending habits and identify areas where you can adjust your spending patterns.17 Having a specific objective in mind will help you keep motivated and focused, whether it’s saving for a down payment (首付) on a home or creating an emergency fund.Setting and sticking to a budget (预算) is also crucial. A budget ensures that your spending is focused on your urgencies and that you set aside enough cash to achieve your objectives.18Impulsive purchasing (冲动消费) is a bad habit to break. Kick the habit of impulse shopping because it can significantly reduce your bank account. Make a list of the items you require before going shopping and stick to it. 19Finally, pay attention to your financial habits and adjust them as needed. 20 Keep in mind that adjusting your spending patterns is. a process, and its effects might not be seen right away. But in the long run, you can make positive changes and strengthen your overall financial health.A.For many of us, spending comes naturally.B.Next, set up clear financial objectives for yourself.C.If you are on a budget, you do not have much money to spend.D.Track your spending and goals, and be prepared to adjust as required.E.This involves recording all your spending for a month and then analyzing the data.F.Make sure to include a category for savings in your budget and use it consistently. G.Additionally, wait a day or two before buying something so that you can decide if you still want it.二、完形填空The summer when I was ten, my mother decided to bring us to the world of art.

Over the years it had grown into two shops, but Allamby wanted something more. At first, he thought that meant growing his business even further. So at 34, Allamby decided to go for his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in business management. After taking classes part-time over the next five years, Allamby was told he had to take biology (生物学) to get his degree.Biology class reawakened Allamby’s childhood dream. He remembered the feeling of wanting to be a doctor back when he was younger.Born in East Cleveland, Ohio, Allamby and his five sisters and brothers were raised by their stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door to door. “That didn’t pay so well,” Allamby says.Growing up in an African American neighborhood, he faced many difficulties. His school didn’t offer advanced science classes. Even if it had, doing well in school could get him into trouble. “Sometimes you wouldn’t carry your books home because other kids would laugh at you,” Allamby says. So he gave up thoughts of becoming a doctor and chose to fix cars.With his family’s support, Allamby decided to take science classes he’d need to become a health care worker. Becoming a doctor when he would be nearly 50 years old seemed crazy. He would instead become a nurse.But Allamby’s chemistry teacher stopped him after class one day. “Carl,” he said, “you’re like the oldest student here. What’s your end game?”Allamby told him how he’d like to become a doctor but it would be better to have a smaller goal.“Why not a doctor?” the teacher asked. “You have a great intuition (直觉) for the work. You will go a long way.”He was right. Allamby did well in all his courses. So in 2015, Allamby started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2019, at age 47, Carl Allamby became a doctor, and took a job in emergency (急诊) medicine at Cleveland Clinic Akron General.4.Why did Allamby go for a bachelor’s degree at first?A.He had an interest in biology.B.He wanted to be a doctor.C.He wanted to be more successful in business.D.He wanted to realize his childhood dream.5.What was Allamby’s life as a child like?A.poor and hard.B.dangerous but attractive.C.peaceful but lonely.D.simple and interesting.6.What did the chemistry teacher think of Allamby?A.He should have a smaller goal.B.He had a gift for medicine.C.He had wasted too much time.D.He was not serious about the class. 7.What can we learn from Allamby’s story?A.Life is not full of roses.B.Education is the key to success.C.Chance favors the prepared mind.D.You’re never too old to live your dream.From cottages surrounded by impressive gardens to days spent exploring sandy beaches and deep woods filled with wildlife, in My Family and Other Animals, English writer Gerald Durrell provided a vivid account of his family’s time on the Greek island of Corfu in the 1930s.Come for the arresting descriptions of Corfu landscapes and stay for Durrell’s laugh-out-loud tales of his unusual family. This book, Durrell wrote humorously in the introduction, “was intended to be a nostalgic(怀旧的)account of natural history, but in the first few pages, I made the mistake of introducing my family.”Durrell, later known for his zoo keeping and the preservation of wildlife, was just a child during his family’s five-year stay in Corfu. He is 10-year-old Gerry in the book—curious, passionate about animals and a detailed storyteller of his strange family: his imaginative elder brother Larry with his literary ambitions, lovestruck sister Margo, sporty brother Leslie and hisever-calm, loving mother.Durrell’s attention to detail is what makes the book so winning, with every sight, sound and smell of the island brought to life. One minute you’ll be laughing as Larry’s clever literary friends walk down to the daffodil-yellow cottage, the next you’ll be catching your breath as Durrell describes swimming at night in the Ionian Sea: “Lying on my back in the silky water, staring at the sky, only moving my hands and feet slightly, I was looking at the Milky Way stretching like a silk scarf across the sky and wondering how many stars it contained.”My Family and Other Animals is quite difficult to classify, being one part travel, one part autobiography, one part natural history, and one part comedy, with a thread of descriptive language running throughout that sometimes raises it nearly to poetry.As a real delight to read, it’s the perfect literary escapism for any adult or older teenager who is currently walking down a tough road in life.8.Which word best describes Durrell’s life in Corfu?A.Diverse.B.Busy.C.Risky.D.Tough.9.What does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 2?A.I just introduced my family by mistake.B.I shouldn’t have introduced my family.C.I gave false information about my family.D.I couldn’t help introducing my family. 10.What are paragraph 4 and 5 mainly about?A.Durrell’s rich imagination.B.Some interesting plots of the book.C.The book’s writing feature.D.Some vivid descriptions of the island. 11.What is the purpose of this text?A.To share an experience.B.To introduce a writing style.C.To recommend a book.D.To describe an unusual place.Two years ago Lucy was saved from a rural area in New South Wales, Australia. Today, she is one of the lucky animals living in rows of trees that have been created to protect koalas and other animals by saving their smaller and smaller habitat (栖息地) , or natural environment.The trees, planted by the local protection group Bangalow Koalas, are made up of large systems of plants. They are a lifeline for koalas and other animals. All of them are in danger of dying out, or at risk of extinction. The trees provide a safe way across the koala’s increasinglybroken habitat. This protects koalas from human threats (威胁). “Our trees are actually trying to get them away from humans, cars and dogs. ”said Linda Sparrow. President of Bangalow Koalas.The koala is expected to die out in the wild in New South Wales by 2050. Some of the biggest threats include wildfires and habitat loss through land clearing for development.Bangalow Koalas has planted over 336, 000 trees on 119 areas, helping koala protection and improving the local ecosystem (生态系统). The group, which depends on community volunteers, aims to plant 500, 000 trees by 2025. “The neighbor would want to join and then another neighbor would want to join. ”Sparrow said. V olunteer Lindy Stacker, who has been planting trees for over five years.A recent report by the Australian Koala Foundation said the animal was worth about S3. 2 billion per year to the tourism industry. However. the World Wildlife Fund-Australia reported a drop in koala populations in Australian states. “I can’t imagine a world where there’s no koalas in the wild. ” Sparrow said. “We’re going to do our best to make sure that doesn’t happen. ”12.Why is Lucy mentioned in Paragraph 1?A.To show it is important to plant trees.B.To suggest a way to protect nature.C.To introduce a special kind of living thing.D.To compare koalas with other animals.13.What does the underlined word “extinction” probably mean in paragraph 2?A.Growing.B.Disappearing.C.Reducing.D.Failing.14.How does Sparrow feel about koalas’ future?A.Doubtful.B.Unclear.C.Positive.D.Disappointed. 15.What is the best title for the text?A.A Protection Group B.The Polluted EnvironmentC.Human Threats D.More Trees, More HopeWith all the pressures of life, relaxing can be difficult, No matter what your lifestyle is,you can find ways to relax. 16 .Meditate (冥想)Try progressive muscle relaxation.

Their project aims to put the elders of a nearly-past generation in front of a microphone, to protect their songs and stories for musicians to hear and study for all time.Some experts often pass warnings about how much oral tradition the human race loses to modernity every year. In Ireland, a country famous for its singers, the Song Collectors Collective (SCC) celebrates that history by honoring the people who have kept its roots alive. Most of them are from the reclusive (隐居的) traveler communities. Rather than simply collecting words, each song can be accessed only by exploring the life and story of the person who sang it for the SCC, or the so-called “Tradition Bearer”.Take Freda Black, for example, a great-grandmother in her mid-eighties. She kept so many songs that she admitted she couldn’t possibly count them. She would go on to feature in the recently released album by a modern folk singer and SCC member, Sam Lee. “I love spending time at the knee of these elders,” Lee said. “I am very lucky. I catch an end of an era.”“It is a common request for the songs and stories to be recorded and shared as the old ways are not being passed on and this huge store of knowledge of an ancient way of life is forgotten. In the current era of accessible recording technology, there is no excuse for not documenting and sharing this rich but fragile (脆弱的) tradition,” wrote the SCC.Having collected hundreds of recordings from dozens of singers, the SCC is beginning to host educational events, featuring some of these Tradition Bearers, sharing their stories and singing voices for those interested in hearing them, as well as how people can become collectors in their own way.41.What are those young Irish musicians of the SCC doing?A.Recording old folk songs and related stories.B.Spreading their new music styles worldwide.C.Teaching young people to learn traditional songs.D.Knowing about the living conditions of elderly musicians.42.What can we infer from Sam Lee’s words?A.He is glad to keep a valuable tradition of music.B.His latest album carries the memory of his grandma.C.He is lucky to have got some help in learning music.D.His music is inspired by conversations with Freda Black.43.What further promotes the SCC’s protection of the oral tradition?A.Market demand.B.Technological progress.C.High praise from the elderly.D.The support of famous musicians. 44.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.The difficulty of holding educational events.B.The significance of protecting Irish culture.C.The stories of those Traditional Bearers.D.The follow-up work of the SCC.45.Which of the following can best describe the SCC’s work?A.Easy and interesting.B.Successful but confusing. C.Necessary and meaningful.D.Professional but dangerous.A food-tech startup in New York has developed technology to preserve food for months without a fridge and artificial preservatives (人工防腐剂). To cut down millions of tons of food waste worldwide, it also may transform agriculture in developing countries where refrigerated shipping containers and trains are rare or expensive.Have you ever wondered why we don’t devote more farmland to growing fruits and vegetables since they’re much more nutritious? The reason is food’s spoilage (变质). Farther Farms’ unique CO2 pasteurization (巴氏杀菌法) technology isa simple fix that can spin out packaged foods’ shelf life at room temperature. Their first choice was French fries which would normally need to be frozen to survive trips between production facilities and supermarkets. They can’t be pasteurized like other goods. Instead, Farther Farms puts them into special packaging and fills it with specially made CO2, preventing damage from bacteria.Growing up in India in a farming family, co-founder Vipul Saran developed Farther Farms as a student at Cornell University. His familiarity with the costs and the trouble of moving agricultural products from farms into towns and cities before they spoiled influencedhis development of the technology.“The whole goal is, basically, how we can look into new food processing technologies that can allow us to create value-added food products from these easily spoilt food products, which avoids the need and the dependency on freezing as much as possible,” Saran said.Rather than packaging apples or potatoes in a plastic bag, the Farther Farms tech is ideal for value-added food products, not only because they require packaging of some kind, but also because they earn farmers more money. Rather than needing to transport them by refrigerated boxcar or shipping container, Farther Farms would ship them at any temperature, thus allowing food producers of all kinds to reach the maximal number of markets. 46.What can be learned about the new technology?A.It improves food safety standards.B.It’s used for reducing food waste.C.It strengthens the cold chain in India.D.It simplifies the food production process.47.What does the underlined phrase “spin out” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Check.B.Limit.C.Lengthen.D.Damage. 48.How does the new technology work?A.By filling food packaging with special CO2.B.By recycling special packaging materials.C.By freezing the food as early as possible.D.By heating the food before packaging.49.What inspired Saran to develop the technology?A.Food shortages in his hometown.B.The poor living conditions in India.C.His family’s struggling farming experiences.D.His observation of the difficulty of food transportation.50.What’s the impact of this new technology on farmers?A.It reduces the storm damage to their crops.B.It expands the market and increases their income.C.It offers them more farmland available for food production.D.It makes them gain more professional agricultural knowledge.Contemporary (当代的) art has been greatly influenced by the rapid development in digital technology and by the new, more attractive and tougher materials that artists can work with. Both these innovations (新事物) have opened new artistic fields. They have also allowed contemporary artists to reduce time spent making artwork to a minimum, thus freeing them to focus more on creativity and developing new ideas, as well as sound preparation for artwork.In the past, painting and drawing depended on the artist’s skills in using his traditional tools — the pencil, brushes, or chalks. The artist, through traditional steps, was in control of the color, the degrees of the different shades, or the realism of his works of art. Artists today operate with clicks of the mouse, video tools and digital colors.The various options now available to artists through new technologies may sometimes have a dangerously negative effect because they offer the artists means of expression that they never imagined were possible. Faced with so many options, the artist may be confused and these emotions are immediately reflected in his works. His artwork may become increasingly lacking in imagination or spirit. There is no doubt that the human touch in the classical school of painting had a major influence on the shape of the painting and the effect of the tools, particularly when an artist used his or her fingers to place the special effects and touches on his or her work. Today’s modern technology has, however, reduced the need for the human artistic touch. Computer-oriented artists sometimes produce masterpieces by accident. Consequently, the artwork upon completion may be entirely different from the artist’s original thought of the painting.Contemporary artists are facing increasingly more complicated challenges to present special artwork. That’s because many recent technological advances have expanded and diversified (使多样化) the art world. Clearly, artists today find it more challenging than ever to present original and innovative ideas, and they need to stretch their imagination to succeed. 51.What is the main benefit of modern technology to contemporary artists?A.It frees them from some confusing options.B.It enables them to create higher-quality paintings.C.It allows them to spend less time on preparations.D.It makes them pay more attention to artistic creation.52.How does the author point out the present situation of artists?A.By referring to experts’ words.B.By making comparisons.C.By analyzing past studies.D.By listing data.53.What can we say about today’s artists’ works?A.They rely heavily on the human touch.B.They help people to recognize a new field.C.They may fail to present their intended meaning.D.They show new skill at using traditional painting tools.54.What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A.Advances in technology place higher demands on artists.B.Traditional artistic methods are facing great challenges.C.Today’s artists must master digital technology.D.Contemporary artists are more imaginative.55.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.The benefits of using new technologyB.The role of art in promoting societyC.The great achievements of contemporary artistsD.The impact of modern technology on art and artists四、阅读表达阅读短文, 按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

湖北省华中科技大学附属中学2022-2023学年高一下学期5月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Here are some popular history books. These history titles offer fresh takes on such exciting subjects as American cultural infrastructure and WWI.Always Faithful: A Story of the War in Afghanistan, the Fall of Kabul, and the Unshakable Bond between a Marine and an Interpreter. By Thomas Schueman and Zainullah Zaki, 2022. Morrow.A U.S. marine and a Pashtun military interpreter tell the stories of their lives and their friendship formed while fighting the Taliban in Helmand province.American Midnight: A Great War, a Violent Peace, and Democracy’s Forgotten Crisis.

By Jacqueline Jones. Jan. 2023. BasicAntebellum-era Boston was central to the nineteenth-century antislavery movement, yet black people faced hostilities and discrimination (歧视) there long after slavery was abolished (废除).1.What does “A Great War” in American Midnight refer to?A.WWI B.WWII C.The Civil War D.The War in Afghanistan2.Which of the following might be in the book No Right to an Honest Living?A.The suffering of the soldiers in the WWI.B.The strong ties of friendship between two people.C.The bad living conditions black people faced.D.The crisis in American democracy.3.What do these three books have in common?A.The theme is friendship.B.They are all concerning a certain war.C.Black people’s lives are described.D.They are all about love and peace.Award-winning author Judy Blume’s novel Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, a book about the challenges of growing up and figuring out who you are, has been popular for more than 50 years. For the first time, it has been turned into a film, which arrives in movie theatres on April 28.The story in the book and the movie is set in the 1970s. It is told from the perspective (视角) of 11-year-old Margaret Simon, a sixth grader faced with going to a new school, making new friends, family drama, and most notably, puberty(when a child’s body becomes an adult body). She is also trying to figure out her own religious beliefs. In private, Margaret addresses God with questions about her life. The novel has been a bestseller for decades, but it is also one of the most forbidden books in the US. Some people think the book’s coverage of puberty is not age-appropriate. Another concern is about the way Christianity is described. The film’s writer-director Kelly Fremon Craig, a longtime fan of the story, told The Week Junior that the movie is faithful to the book.Margret is played by Abby Ryder Fortson, who was about the same age as her character during filming. She told The Week Junior she first read the novel when she was auditioning (试镜) for the movie. Afterward, she recalled, “I said to my dad, ‘How did someone write a book about this experience and make it so honest and so true?’ I loved the book so much.”Craig wants the film to make audiences laugh and for them to see themselves in Margaret and her friends. “There’s something about watching someone else do the embarrassing things that you do that’s really funny—also a great relief that you’re not the only one,”she said.4.What is true about Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret ?A.The movie is extremely popular.B.It was written by Margaret.C.It was turned into a film 50 years ago.D.It is about problems in the process of growth.5.What has caused an argument among readers of the book?A.Margaret’s religious beliefs.B.How Margaret deals with her problems.C.The description of puberty.D.The cover of the book.6.How does the writer illustrate “the movie is faithful to the book”?A.By giving an example.B.By making a comparison.C.By giving a definition.D.By showing its effect.7.What’s Graig’s purpose in making this film?A.To bring Margaret to life.B.To learn from Margaret.C.To embarrass the audience.D.To amuse the audience.Sixty-six years ago, there was one human-built object in Earth’s orbit. It was Sputnik, the world’s first satellite, launched in October 1957. Try to guess how many human-made objects are circling the planet now. Ready?Your answer is wrong, unless you guessed 100 trillion. That’s a jaw-dropping number. It was provided by an international team of researchers writing in the journal Science. For years, this junk has formed an ever-growing mass near Earth. It’s a danger to spacecraft. The researchers are calling for a global treaty to limit the number of satellites and the amount of rubbish in space.There are 9,000 active satellites in orbit, the scientists report. That could grow to more than 60,000 by 2030. The rest of that 100 trillion figure includes everything from used-up booster rockets and stray bolts to metal flecks and paint chips. Don’t think a paint chip is harmless. Travelling at 17,500 miles per hour, it can strike a spacecraft hard. The International Space Station is dotted with dents and holes. Astronauts often take shelter in an attached spacecraft to wait out a passing swarm of space debris (残骸). That way, if the station is severely damaged, they can escape in a hurry.The mess we’ve made in space is like the mess we’ve made in the oceans. Think of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It’s a mass of floating junk twice the size of Texas. We’ve had centuries to make the ocean dirty. But it has taken just decades for us to do the same in space.That’s why the Science authors include experts in satellite technology and in ocean plastic pollution. “As a marine biologist, I never imagined writing a paper on space,” writes Heather Koldewey, who works at the Zoological Society of London. Cleaning up space, she says, has a lot in common “with the challenges of tackling environmental issues in the ocean.”Coauthor Moriba Jah is an aerospace engineering professor at the University of Texas at Austin. “Marine debris and space debris,” he writes, “are both a human-made damage that is unavoidable.”8.Why is Sputnik mentioned in paragraph 1?A.To provide background information.B.To introduce the topic.C.To make a comparison.D.To tell a story.9.What’s the main idea of paragraph 3?A.What caused space debris.B.The number of space debris.C.The seriousness of space pollution.D.What astronauts often do in space.10.What does Heather’s words suggest?A.Ocean pollution is very serious.B.Ocean is the same as space.C.Space pollution is getting worse.D.She is going to write a paper on space.11.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.There is the same amount of marine debris and space debris.B.Humans are to blame for the space pollution.C.Marine and space pollution are unavoidable.D.Humans can do nothing to prevent space pollution.Tomorrow’s food experts’ menus could feature items prepared with complex cooking techniques and presentation—all at the push of a button. Columbia University mechanical engineers have designed a 3-D printer that can produce and cook dishes at the same time with details at the millimeter scale.The proof-of-concept design, described in Science of Food, combines a multiwavelength laser cooker, roughly the size of five smartphones put together, with a microwave-oven-sized food printer. Beyond applying complex substance and presentation designs, this type of software-controlled setup could someday scan a QR code to automatically prepare dishes adapted to individual eating habits and dietary requirements, says Blutinger, lead author of the paper and a digital-cooking researcher at Columbia.The new technology is “astounding”, says Megan Ross, a food scientist who studies 3-D printing at Ireland’s University College Cork and was not involved in the study. Ross notes that the design is still at an early stage and that many technical challenges still remain, such as preventing cross contamination (交叉污染) between layers of uncooked and cooked meat. Still, Ross is impressed by the device’s ability to produce foods outside the kingdom of traditional cooking. “Is this going to be sold in shops everywhere in the next few years? No,” she says. “But everyone has to start somewhere.”Compared with 3-D-printed chicken cooked in a traditional oven, the laser-cooked chicken had nearly twice as much weight and size, the researchers found. “That chicken is going to be juicy,” says Liam Macleod, a Denver-based chef (厨师) and former 3-D food printing specialist at the Culinary Institute of America who was not involved in the study. Macleod does not think such technology will ever replace chefs, but it might “add a tool to their collection” to deliver a new sensory experience. “Cooking is a skill set that has been practiced and perfected for thousands of years,” he says. “It’s very exciting to come up with something new and unique that people haven’t experienced yet.”12.What do we know about the technology?A.It’s improved from a previous one.B.It has received popularity in the US.C.It is easy to operate.D.It will come into the market soon.13.What is Ross’s opinion towards the new technology?A.Favorable B.Unconcerned C.Doubtful D.Unfavorable 14.What does Macleod think about the technology?A.It will probably replace cooks in the future.B.The food produced will save much space.C.It will not stand the test of time.D.It will be of great help to cooks.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.An Improved Food SystemB.Laser-Focused ChefC.3-D Food Printer InventedD.Juicy Chicken:Are You For It?二、七选五With winter holiday season just around the corner, festive atmosphere is everywhere. Tables of each family are stuffed with mouth-watering foods. Then how can you enjoy them without overeating? Here are several ways that may help you.·Finish when you’re fullWhen it comes to eating during the festival, always ask yourself the question, “Will eating this bring me joy?” That will help you consider the big meal in a reasonable way. With that in mind, don’t feel you have to overeat. 16·Skip the foods you like less17 If Christmas cake or your mum’s dessert is a necessary part of the happiness of the season, by all means help yourself to some. But don’t feel that you have to eat Christmas pudding or apple pies just because they’re there. And, if you’re faced with a buffet (自助餐), reach for one small plate, fill it with the foods that look most delicious, and leave it at that.·Say no nicelyAt a party, don’t feel under pressure to overeat when you’re offered food or drink. 18 Don’t feel you have to make excuses or apologise.·19The season of goodwill isn’t all about eating, as we well know. So think about ways you can celebrate with the whole family that don’t involve stuffing your stomach with yet more food. Make a trip to a Christmas market or outdoor skating rink (溜冰场) a new tradition. Actually go for that active winter walk rather than just talking about it and then settling down in front of television instead!·Get rid of the guiltFood shaming yourself will only make you feel worse. If you’re eating a bit more than usual, then simply remind yourself that it’s in the spirit of family, friends and celebration and make it a joyful experience, rather than a blame game. 20A.Overeating can make you feel bored and unhealthy.B.A straightforward “No, thank you” is all that’s needed.C.Share your foods with others.D.Ask yourself that important question before reaching for more.E.This will help you develop a year-round healthy attitude towards food.F.Treat yourself to the foods you love, but pass on the unnecessary ones.G.Start food-free traditions.三、完形填空It was a relatively calm day in the fishing village of Kalk Bay. Several people were22.A.dramatically B.deeply C.gradually D.constantly 23.A.lifted B.covered C.pressed D.held 24.A.village B.bay C.restaurant D.ocean 25.A.headed for B.worked at C.lived near D.ate in 26.A.swept B.blown C.thrown D.turned 27.A.people B.ship C.life jacket D.wave 28.A.learned B.agreed C.managed D.wished 29.A.producing B.buying C.pouring D.storing 30.A.unnamed B.outgoing C.attractive D.international 31.A.fix B.rescue C.threaten D.catch 32.A.regularly B.occasionally C.directly D.recently 33.A.recognized B.comforted C.interviewed D.contacted 34.A.business B.lives C.credit D.health 35.A.polite B.generous C.grateful D.friendly四、用单词的适当形式完成短文they are twice as busy.

Most people like to be praised and they may long for approval and recognition from others. Therefore, praising a kid for his good behavior can help him grow healthy. To be sure, not every use of praise is a calculated approach to control children’s behavior. Sometimes we praise kids just because we are fully pleased by what they have done. Even then, however, it’s worth looking more closely .Praise may increase kid’s independence on us. So I think while we admit the advantage of praise we can not ignore the disadvantage of abusing it.When our life is filled with sunshine, we need a bit rain to make our heads clear. Too much praise of them makes people, especially the young, become conceited and arrogant, which thus spoils them. No person can live on praise all his life without being hurt.。

But immediately upon the take-off, it was clear that something was wrong. The aircraft was bumping (颠簸) up and down. All the experienced travellers, including me, looked around with knowing (会意的) smiles. If you fly much, you see these things and learn to act calmly about them. However, we did not remain calm for long.Minutes after we were in the air, our plane began falling quickly. The pilot soon made a serious announcement. “We are having some difficulties,” he said. “Our indicators show that the control system has failed. We will be returning to the Orlando Airport. The flight attendants will prepare you for a bumpy landing. Also, if you look out of the windows, you will see that we are dumping (倾倒) fuel from the airplane. We want to have as little on board as possible in the event of a rough touchdown.” In other words, we were about to crash. Many travellers looked visibly frightened now. No one faces death without fear, I thought.Then a couple of rows to my left, I heard a still ca lm voice, a woman’svoice, speaking in an absolutely normal conversational tone. I had to find the source of this voice. All around, people cried. Many screamed. Finally, I saw her. In this state of complete confusion and lack of order, a mother was talking to her child. The woman, in her mid-30s, was staring full into the face of her daughter, who looked to be four years old. The child listened closely, sensing the importance of her mother’s words. The mother’s eye held the child so fixed that she seemed u ntouched by the sounds of grief and fear around her.Finally, I leaned over and could hear this soft sure voice with the tone of comfort. Over and over again, the mother said, “I love you so much. Remember, no matter what happens, I love you always.” Fortu nately, our landing gear (起落架) held at last and our touchdown was not a tragedy.However, the voice I heard that day never faded. That mom showed me what a real hero looks like.4.What does the second paragraph mainly tell usA.The crew was getting ready for a take-off.B.The travellers were taken good care of on the plane.C.The aircraft was not in normal condition when flying.D.The passengers were enjoying themselves on the aircraft.5.Why were they dumping fuel from the airplaneA.To prepare for a landing. B.To have the airplane not bump.C.To make the airplane to fly faster. D.To make sure the control system worked well.6.How was the woman after hearing the pilot’s wordsA.She looked quite angry. B.She didn’t appear so worried.C.She felt extremely nervous. D.She sounded rather hopeless. 7.What do we know about the child on the plane after the announcement was madeA.She paid attention to her mother’s words.B.She screamed and cried with other passengers.C.She comforted her mother after hearing the emergency.D.She didn’t seem to be interested in what her mother said.Earlier this year the phone companies stopped supporting the software for my old 3G phone, so I was forced to buy a new Smart Phone. I didn’t use it much at first, only to get a call from my daughter or to play a game or two. Soon, however, I found it far easier to surf the web or check out Facebook on the smart phone than my computer. Even with my limited time I quickly found myself spending more and more of it on this phone. It happened almost without me noticing it.Yesterday I was on it scrolling through the sea of stories, posts, news, and videos. Then suddenly a long and white nose pushed its way between me and my phone. It was my pet dog. I started to push it away but that only got me a lick(舔) from my cheek to my glasses. Laughing Iput the phone down, took my glasses off and petted it. Soon we were hugging, and playing around down the hallways of my home. And I noticed something too. There was a feeling in my heart: a wonderful mixtu re of love, laughter, and joy. It was a feeling that I hadn’t gotten once during all that time I had spent on my phone.Strange how it took a dog to remind me of what is important for our souls. Technology is here to stay. But we shouldn’t let it control u s or our time. I vowed then to spend less time on my addictive phone and more time doing the important things in life like talking to my friends, writing letters, and even playing with my dogs. It is these that fill my heart With love.8.What happened to the author in paragraph 1A.His old phone was brokenB.His entire life was changedC.He became addicted to the phoneD.He didn’t use his computer any longer.9.Which is the right order of what happened in paragraph 2a. I was surfing the phone aimlessly.b. A warm feeling rose from my heart.c. The dog approached me and licked me.d. I petted the dog with my phone aside.A.acdb B.acbdC.cbda D.bacd10.What does the underlined word “vowed” mean in paragraph 3 A.Agreed. B.Expected.C.Refused. D.Promised.11.What does the author want to convey in the textA.Following the advanced technology.B.Making time for the important things.C.Building a close relationship with pets.D.Enjoying the convenience of technology.English is full of colorful phrases to describe shyness. Someone shy might be called shrinking violet or a wallflower, while for especially nervous types we have the curious expression: they wouldn’t say boo to a goose. None of these are traditionally seen as positive descriptions, even if you like geese. In a culture of go-getting, high achievers, shy people don’t come first. Or that’s what the self-help industry would have you believe. Bookshops are filled with vital tomes(巨著) that promise to help beat social fears and find success in life, love and business. That is why one book, Shrinking Violets: A Field Guide to Shyness, bucks the trend. It became a sudden success across English-language media recently for its new take-on shyness.Author Joe Moran says that despite struggling with shyness and longing for loneliness all his life, being shy can also be "a gift". Freed from theconstant urge to participate and compete in social situations, people are liberated to look at the world in new ways, and gain fresh insights. Indeed, many of the world’s great t hinkers and artists are introverts(内向的人). Scientists Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein preferred their own company; actress Keira Knightley often finds herself tongue-tied at parties; and Harry Potter author JK Rowling claims she used to be too nervous to even borrow a pen.Moran told BBC Future: "I think shyness probably does turn you into an amateur anthropologist(人类学家), really-you are more likely to be an observer."So, while extroverts make all the noise, they don’t necessarily have the best ideas.If you’re shy, you’ve probably known this for a long time. You just don’t shout about it.12.When someone is being called a wallflower, he is being ________. A.praised for his grace B.admired for his characterC.laughed at for his shyness D.told off for his nervousness 13.The underlined phrase “bucks the trend” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.A.going against the trend and succeedsB.changing the public idea completelyC.becoming unpopular and unacceptedD.becoming the major concern of people14.The author mentioned many famous shy people in order to________.A.point out the harm shyness bringsB.disconnect shyness and successC.shows the reasons for shynessD.prove shyness contributes to science15.What is the author’s attitude towards shynessA.Opposed. B.Indifferent.C.Supportive. D.Critical.二、七选五I’m a slow reader. 16 This is fine for me because my target is to focus on quality. In the past, I used to spend the time necessary to get the most out of the book without getting lost in details. But now I attach more importance to quality than quantity. How can we do that How can we choose a good book to read Here are three simple steps on how to choose a good book to read.17 I believe that having the right attitude is the starting point. What is the right attitude to have When it comes to self-education, the right attitude is curiosity. Because unlike formal education where external(外部的) factors push you to learn, with self-education you need to motivate yourself. Curiosity is like fuel in your self-education journey.Find potential books. To find a good book to read, you should collect potential books to read. In my case, I usually put them on my Amazon wish list. How do you find these potential books 18 I also follow some websites that often recommend good books. I can then decide whether or not the book is a good one for me. 19Choose the best book for your current situation. With a list of potential books to read, how do you choose which one to read 20 Which book would make the most difference in my current situation This question might seem simple, but if you use it, it can make a big difference in your personal growth.A.Be curious.B.Be cautious.C.In my case, I ask myself a question.D.Well, my first source is bestseller lists.E.I can know more about the author of a book.F.In general, I can only finish two books in a month.G.If it is, then I’ll add it to my list of potential books to read.三、完形填空It happened in Knoxville (a city in Tennessee in the US).
