江苏省南通市区2024-2025学年高二10月月考英语试卷
江苏省南通市区2024-2025学年高二10月月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Looking to inspire curious young minds? These are some of the best popular science books for children, which should keep the young minds full of ideas long into the future.Amazing JellyfishThis book includes plenty of impressive facts. The first-person style of the author helps to keep the attention of young readers, by including personal stories and avoiding all pages of words. Each part is divided into detailed drawings and valuable information. The book has fun jokes about jellyfish, a maze (迷宫) with sea trash, and more.A Brief History of StuffDK has chosen a mix of many different things for this unique book. From baby bottles to pens, there isn’t much of a logical (合乎逻辑的) path or timeline, making it a great book for kids of all ages. Seeing a list of everyday items such as a pot or a fridge, you realize how little you know about the stories behind them. This book has all the information you need about their beginnings and impact on society.A Kid’s Guide to the Night SkyThe night sky is filled with countless astronomical objects to explore and this book does its best to introduce a wide variety of them to children. The life cycle of stars and light pollution are just a few of the topics that the book introduces to its audience. It also takes a deep div e into each of the solar system’s planets and some of the amazing technology that’s working to find out more about them.Radar (雷达) and the RaftThe story of radar, along with the inventors and contributing scientists, comes together in this book about the technology’s development and lifesaving uses. By connecting the story of the Bell family’s near-death experience at sea with the story of radar’s discovery, the author has produced an interesting and informative storyline.1．What is a main feature of Amazing Jellyfish?A．Using a strictly scientific style.B．Presenting a clear timeline of events.C．Focusing on fun games about sea life.D．Matching the text and the picture well. 2．How do readers probably perceive A Brief History of Steff?A．A collection of famous speeches.B．An introduction to historical heroes.C．A guide to exploring common objects.D．A handbook on starting interest clubs. 3．Which book best suits young enthusiasts for astronomy?A．Amazing Jellyfish.B．Radar and the Raft.C．A Brief History of Stuff.D．A Kid’s Guide to the Night Sky.How would you feel if your child were being tutored by a robot? It’s believed that social robots could become as common as paper and whiteboards in schools. Those robots have been used to read stories to preschool students in Singapore, help 12-year-olds in Iran learn English and improve handwriting among young children in Switzerland.As a professor of education, I study the different ways that teachers worldwide do their jobs. To understand how social robots could affect teaching, I introduced a robot called “Pepper” into a public elementary and middle school in the U. S. and found many problems with the current generation of social robots.To get the robot to perform, our students had to master the directions that came with the robot. Some students quickly figured out that the robot could respond only to certain basic routines. They kept trying to interact with the robot as if it were a person but got very frustrated with its nonhuman responses. When a robot failed to answer a question, or responded in the wrong way, students realized the robot wasn’t really understanding them and that the robot’s dialogue was preprogrammed.Also, I have found that these are not limited to school settings. Service robots in some health care facilities have been programmed to deliver medicine, but this requires special sensors and programming. Stores and restaurants are experimenting with delivery and cleaning robots. But when a grocery store in Scotland tried to use “Pepper” for customer interactions, the robot was fired after a week.While the social robots currently used in schools are limited in functions, they can still provide useful learning experiences. Students can use them to learn more about robotics and artificial intelligence. Struggling with a robot’s limitations gives students real insights into thecomplicated nature of human social interaction. The opportunity to do hands-on work with a social robot shows students how difficult it is to program robots to copy human behavior. As AI becomes a bigger part of our work and lives, we need to teach students to think critically about what it means to live and work with social machines.4．What phenomenon is described at the beginning of the text?A．The global differences in educational approachesB．The transformative impact of robots on education.C．The adoption of social robots in classrooms worldwide.D．The innovative achievements in science and technology.5．How do students find their interaction with social robots?A．Amusing and engagıng.B．Challenging but beneficial.C．Ineffective and disappointing.D．Satisfying but time-consuming.6．What does the author want to show by mentioning the examples in paragraph 4?A．Robotics still has room for improvement.B．Technology has changed the way we workC．Many fields are open to experimenting with robots.D．Robots might pose a threat to people’s employment.7．What can students learn by interacting with limited-function social robots in schools?A．To master communication skills.B．To get some hands-on experience.C．To strengthen the sense of mission.D．To improve critical thinking ability.For many of us, online shopping has made the process of purchasing goods a far simpler and more convenient process. No longer do we have to head to shops to browse through various objects, wandering round endless shelves, before finally setting for the first thing we saw. These days, we find the item we want or need online, click on it, and check out its description and, most importantly, its user reviews. If it fits the bill, we send it to our basket and pay.There seems to be a wealth of options at our fingertips. But how do we know the options that pop up in front of us really are the best deals, and how might algorithms (算法) help or hold us back?Algorithms, simply put, are mathematical instructions which tell a computer how to solveproblems. When shopping is involved, what is the problem they solve? Well, they instruct a computer which advertisements to show and which products a user is most likely to buy. By analyzing the things we bought or looked at previously algorithms can predict what goods we’re most likely to be attracted by.For some people, the idea of something guessing your preferences could sound a bit worrying. But first, let’s look at the positives. By telling a computer to show us what we are interested in, it can not only save us a lot of time, but also help us find the best deals. However, there are some people who have concerns about the impact of algorithms on our shopping experience. It is possible that algorithms may only select options from a limited number of brands, or may favour products from certain companies. There are also concerns that we aren’t always shown the cheapest or best deal, even though that’s what we’re searching for.So, the takeaway from this is that algorithms are here to stay, and it’s wise to know they exist. Whenever you are shopping, be it online or off, make sure you shop around for the best deals. The first thing you see might not always be the best for you.8．What is the main factor that leads you to buy the product online immediately?A．The reasonable price.B．Salesgirls’ description.C．Customers’ comments.D．The convenient delivery.9．How do algorithms help customers find their favourite goods?A．The previous consuming records.B．The most advertisements they see.C．The frequency of visiting the store.D．The amount of money they spend. 10．What does the author think of algorithms used for online shopping?A．Doubtful.B．Beneficial.C．Negative.D．Worrying. 11．Which message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A．Many hands make light work.B．Actions speak louder than words.C．Only the feet tell if the shoes fit.D．Only comparing can see the gap.At a park in one of the world’s most polluted cities, a filtration (过滤) “tower” has been quietly cleaning the surrounding air since last summer. Called Verto, the device filters 600,000 cubic meters of air a day in New Delhi’s Sunder Nursery.Filtration towers were designed by architecture firm Studio Symbiosis. The firm’sco-founders, Amit Gupta and Britta Knobel Gupta, say their fan-powered devices can clean the air within a radius (半径) of 200 to 500 meters in some spaces, depending on wind speed and how open the surroundings are. “I think the towers can also be installed in public parks and squares, where people spend quality outdoor time,” Britta said, adding that installing (安装) the towers in spots where homeless people sleep might also be very beneficial.In 2019 alone, air pollution is thought to have caused nearly 1.6 million deaths in India, according to a study in medical journal The Lancet. New Delhi is regularly covered with smog, with vehicle emissions, crop-burning, and coal-fired power plants all contributing to the city’s bad air quality.In addition to the direct impact of pollution, the resulting climate change has caused heat waves that have killed more than 24,000 people in the country since 1992, according to a study published by the University of Cambridge.Amit estimated that maybe 100 of the towers would be required to filter the air across central New Delhi, though further research and a “full-scale model” would be required to calculate more figures. The devices are also designed to be easily transported, with the hope that they can be adopted on a larger scale.The filters, which need to be changed every three to nine months, are partly recyclable. Noise generated by the towers is, at a maximum of 75 decibels, similar to that of a standard kitchen exhaust fan (排风扇). To reduce Verto’s environmental impact, Studio Symbıosis installed energy-efficient smart fans that vary according to local conditions, slowing down when pollution is low, or when strong winds provide natural air flow.12．Which factor can improve the work efficiency of filtration tower?A．The height of tower.B．The surrounding people.C．The design of fans.D．The strength of wind.13．What is mainly discussed in Paragraphs 3 and 4?A．The death number in India since 1992.B．The consequence of climate change.C．The cause and effect of air pollution.D．The process of heat wave generation. 14．What is the striking feature of Verto?A．Cost-effective.B．Uniquely-designed.C．Eco-friendly.D．Completely-recycled15．What is the best title for the text?A．The air cleaning tower in India B．The bad air quality in New DelhiC．The filtration tower’s global trend D．Smart fans’ environmental purposeAppreciating art can be a rewarding experience. But it can also be confusing if you’re not sure where to start. Here are a few tips to help you get the most out of your art appreciation journey.One of the most important things to remember when looking at art is to approach it with an open mind. 16 Instead, allow yourself to experience the art work on its own terms and see what emotions or thoughts it awakens in you.When you first encounter a piece of art, take a few moments to look at it. Notice the colors, lines, shapes, and materials. 17 If you’re looking at a painting, try to identify the brushwork and how it contributes to the artistic effect of the piece.18 Thinking about the situation in which a piece was created can help you better understand and appreciate the work. For example, if you’re looking at a piece of art from the 19th century, it can be helpful to learn about the artistic movements and social issues that were common at the time.The medium in which a piece of art is created can have a significant impact on the final product. 19 Understanding the properties and limitations of different mediums can help you appreciate the technical skills and choices of the artist.If you’re looking at art in a museum or gallery, there may be a staff member available to answer your questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for more information. If you’re looking at art online or in a book, try to find out more about the work through research. 20A．Many works of art convey a deeper meaning.B．You can also turn to a professional about the subject.C．Try not to assume what the artist was trying to express.D．The key to appreciating art is to approach it with curiosity.E．Observe how the various elements of the artwork are arranged.F．Art is often created within a specific historical, or cultural context.G．A sculpture made of metal has a different feel from an oil painting.二、完形填空The town of North Rustico is a homey sort of place. Neighbors there are always sure to 21 one another as they go about their day. And that 22 of friendliness is apparently infectious.One day, local resident Lisa Sandoval was walking near the waterfront when she realized somebody was 23 to her. “I heard ‘Hello! Hello!’” Sandoval said. “I turned around and there wasn’t even a 24 . Then I heard the 25 again. I got a little 26 , and thought I must be hearing things.”It was then that Sandoval noticed only a crow (乌鸦) nearby. “I stopped and said, ‘Hello?’”27 , he answered me back, “Hello!”Sandoval later came to learn that she wasn’t the only one in town to have 28 the talking crow. The story goes that years earlier the bird had been found injured as a baby and 29 by an elderly man living nearby, who often spoke to him during his 30 . “That bird had learned to say hello and had been let go free after regaining his health,” Sandoval said. A few months after their 31 meeting, Sandoval ran into the talking crow again.Crows, much like parrots, are indeed 32 of learning to mimic human language. So, if the story of his 33 is true, his vocalizations (说出的话) may very well 34 the voice of the elderly man who’d saved him. “He passed away years ago,” Sandoval said, but his legacy (遗产) 35 in the friendly, feathered bird. 21．A．understand B．greet C．attract D．remember 22．A．chance B．principle C．sense D．demand 23．A．pointing B．speaking C．responding D．appealing 24．A．soul B．signal C．choice D．change 25．A．answer B．rhythm C．warning D．voice 26．A．confused B．bored C．messy D．guilty 27．A．Gradually B．Carelessly C．Incredibly D．Accidentally 28．A．attended B．adopted C．encountered D．expected 29．A．introduced B．nursed C．grabbed D．accepted30．A．residence B．flight C．absence D．recovery 31．A．initial B．regular C．casual D．private 32．A．aware B．proud C．capable D．ignorant 33．A．origin B．talent C．injury D．departure 34．A．raise B．reflect C．protect D．replace 35．A．sets off B．gives up C．backs down D．lives on三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

福建省莆田华侨中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
福建省莆田华侨中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Tired of the busy life in Las Vegas, Nevada for nearly ten years, my family and I decided to slow things down. We wanted to lead an environmentally- friendly life. None of us felt this could be accomplished where we were living and we all agreed that a move to the country would be great for everyone.Before long we set about looking for a home in Yucca, a very small town of less than 100 people, where it is normal to record temperatures above 46°C for days on end in summer and it is very wild with practically no snowfall in winter.When I called to inquire about the property, I was informed that there was no electricity available in the area. What? No electricity? I almost denied the idea immediately. But what better way is there to go green? After giving it a second thought, we decided to put in an offer and moved in on Thanksgiving Day.When we first moved to the property, we did some remodeling and stayed in our motor home. We were faced with real challenges at the time. But the frustrations just made us work harder. We slowly got things fixed and moved into the house after 38 days.While living here for the past four months has been a big adjustment, we benefit a lot from living off grid. I think one of the most educational lessons is teaching my kids the importance of conservation. They used to take power for granted. But now they realize the importance of power, together with water and gas. We start taking quicker showers, doing only full loads of laundry, turning off the water while brushing our teeth. And this has a chain effect. We are also trying to make other changes which include reducing the amount of trash we generate by recycling, growing our own organic vegetables and re-purposing things that we would have normally thrown.Overall, going without electricity has been great for our family. I hope that once my kids move out of the house, they will keep the habits that they have learned here.1．Why did the family move to the small town?A．To inspire the kids.B．To try a new lifestyle.C．To cut living expenses.D．To escape air pollution.2．What can be learned about the small town?A．It has an aging population.B．It lacks access to water.C．It has hot summer days.D．It lacks educational resources.3．What does the underlined phrase “living off grid” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Dealing with poverty.B．Dealing with garbage.C．Living without pollution.D．Living without electricity.4．What is the text mainly about?A．A family switching to a simple life.B．A family helping the locals go green.C．A family traveling around the country.D．A family teaching the kids hands- on skills.According to Carol Henger, an urban ecologist at Fordham University, around 20-30 coyotes (郊狼) live in New York City, which was first reported by the New York Times.According to the journal, coyotes have been spotted wandering (游荡的) areas of NYC as early as 1994, with proof of breeding groups first established in 2016. NYC wasn’t originally home to coyotes, as most of the species came from the Great Plains and Southwest.Dr. Henger estimates a total of 20 — 30 coyotes are now residing in the city. Many of the coyotes currently living in the city can actually be traced back to the original group that first arrived in the Bronx, so they truly are multi-generational New Yorkers.The curious creatures can cover as much as 10 miles of open space per day — picture the route from Wall Street to the top of Central Park.So where are they living in NYC? Well, according to Urban Coyote Research, urban coyotes like to keep their distance from humans, choosing habitats (栖息地) in parks or wooded patches.Specifically in NYC, Dr. Henger discovered coyote feces (粪便) mainly around green spaces in the Bronx and areas throughout Queens over a 10-year span, shares the New York Times. In recent years, NYC has also seen coyotes wandering in Central Park.As for diet, urban coyotes had a more species-rich diet than the non-urban coyotes. From plants to rabbits, human leftovers to rodents rats, urban coyotes actually have quite a diverse diet.And though only a limited number of rats were traced in urban coyote feces according to Dr. Henger, at least something’s out there dealing with them until the city hires a rat catcher! 5．What does the text suggest about the coyotes’ habitats?A．They are native to NYC．B．They were first discovered in Central Park.C．They often change habitats throughout their lives.D．They originally came from the Great Plains and Southwest.6．What does the underlined word “residing” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Sleeping.B．Hiding.C．Living.D．Visiting.7．What can be known about urban coyotes?A．They are unfamiliar with NYC．B．They can wander up to 10 miles in a day.C．They prefer to live in populated urban areas.D．They have a limited diet consisting of only plants.8．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The varied diet of urban coyotes.B．Safety tips on living with coyotes.C．Coyotes’ daily movements in NYC．D．The arrival and settlement of coyotes.When Mayumi Watanabe tells people what she does for a living, most people widen their eyes in disbelief, not just because she is quite tiny. “I can see they’re thinking, ‘How can such a tiny woman drive a big truck? ’ ” Watanabe, who is 152 cm tall, said as she prepared for the busy run-up to be a truck driver.When she started driving her truck, Watanabe was an exception, as all her co-workers were men. Figuring out routes in the days before E-maps was not the only aspect of the job with which she struggled. Expressway truck stops did not have women’s toilets, and heavy-vehicle cabs appeared to have been designed entirely with male drivers in mind.Watanabe is now a director of Heartful, the first among Japan’s 62, 000 trucking firms to employ only female drivers. Japan’s $300 bn freight and logistics (货运和物流) field is looking to women to address what industry insiders believe could be disastrous changes in the aging labour market.In an attempt to make trucking, with its punishingly long hours, more attractive, theJapanese government will limit drivers’ overtime at 960 hours a year, or 80 hours a month, from April. However, transport companies warn that it will cause an outflow from a job in which most drivers depend on large amounts of overtime to make ends meet. But for Watanabe, there are also signs of a bright side in the industry.In the two decades that Watanabe, 43, has been driving trucks around her company’s base in Fukui, toilet facilities have improved, while improved seat design and steering (操纵) technology have made her job much easier. With more women driving large trucks, companies are starting to customize their vehicles to better suit them, including fitting cabs with curtains to give the drivers more privacy during rest breaks.Watanabe’s extra hours will fall sharply from April. “A lot of drivers will just quit,” she said. But she has no intention of joining them. “Driving gives me a sense of freedom.”9．What aspect of Mayumi Watanabe surprises people the most?A．Her great enthusiasm for trucks.B．Her positive attitude towards life.C．Her busy schedule at the end of the year.D．Her presence in a male-centered profession. 10．What did Watanabe struggle to do in her daily work?A．Develop competence in driving a truck.B．Get along well with her male co-workers.C．Fit into the uncomfortable working conditions.D．Determine driving routes through digital maps.11．What is the significance of women in Japan’s freight and logistics industry?A．They help ease the labour shortage.B．They improve customer satisfaction.C．They promote equality in the workplace.D．They contribute to better labour management. 12．What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A．Technological advancements in trucking.B．Benefits of having more women in trucking.C．Positive changes made in the trucking industry.D．Reasonable demands from women truck drivers.You’ll make new friends in each stage of your life. Some of them will come and go, while others will last for the rest of your life. 13There are many benefits of having strong friendships. According to experts, many people regret not keeping friendships going and end up living a life with no close friends or evenenduring mental and physical sufferings. 14 People who have healthy friendships tend to enjoy life more and may even live longer.15 There are a lot of ways to make new friends that can stay with you for the rest of your life. Look for people who share things with you. If you have kids, join a mom’s group, or sign your child up for classes where you’ll naturally meet other parents. 16 You share your career and will have a lot to talk about while also having built-in opportunities to spend time with each other.Sometimes it’s a good idea to let a friendship go, even if you’ve been friends for a long time. If one party isn’t making an effort to keep things going, it can lead to feelings of hurt and betrayal, and it might be time to let things cool off and pursue other friendships. 17 Besides, it can encourage you to focus on the partnerships that are healthy and where both of you are committed to keeping it going for your entire life.A．Lifelong friendships are what most people desire.B．You don’t have to be mean or harsh to get this done.C．If you are lacking in good friendships, it’s not too late.D．You can also make friends with people you work with.E．So making time for your friendships is vital to a healthy life.F．Sign up for a dancing class to meet those with the same passion.G．While this can be sad, it can actually improve your quality of life.二、完形填空Wang Yaping, 41, became China’s first female astronaut to conduct a spacewalk on November. 2021.Wang’s dream of becoming an astronaut was 18 by Yang Liwei’s 2003 space flight, which was China’s first manned space mission.“Now China has its first man in space, when will our country have its first 19 .” thought Wang, who was then working as a fighter pilot in China’s air force.After years of 20 training and excellent performance in various 21 , in May 2010, Wang became a member of China’s first batch of female astronauts.

Late one evening, Jayasree, who had recently been diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s, got up in her nightdress and went to make tea at her home in India. After she returned to her bedroom, Chadalavada went into the kitchen to find that his grandmother had left the gas on!Chadalavada decided to invent a wearable device to help people like his grandmother. Now aged 17, Chadalavada is ready to start making the Alpha Monitor. The device, which can be worn as an armband, sets off an alarm when the wearer with Alzheimer’s starts to move and warns a caregiver if the patient falls or wanders off.Most similar devices run on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so when a person moves out of their frequencies’ limited range the connection is lost and with it the monitoring. But the Alpha Monitor can detect a person more than a mile away in cities and three miles in the countryside thanks to the long-range technology, known as LoRa, it uses.Teaching himself with YouTube videos about robotics and electronics, Chadalavada has developed several prototypes (模型). To understand the needs of people with Alzheimer’s, he spent time in a day centre run by the Alzheimer’s and Related Disorders Society of India. There, the cofounder told him that the device “had to be something light that can be worn on any part of the body”. She says: “Many patients don’t like having to wear a watch and they take it off.”In March, when Chadalavada’s school exams are over, he will put the finishing touches to the monitor, with the aim of getting the device ready for market by September. He is confident that it should be sold at an affordable price for most people.Chadalavada hopes to study robotics at a university abroad. His aim is simple: “I want to create products to help people in India for the whole world.”4．Why did Chadalavada invent the Alpha Monitor?A．To treat Alzheimer’s.B．To entertain senior citizens.C．To improve Alzheimer’s caregiving.D．To ensure fire safety at the elderly’s homes.5．What is an advantage of the Alpha Monitor?A．It is more comfortable to wear.B．It has a longer service time.C．It offers a remoter monitoring.D．It uses higher frequency controls.6．What did Chadalavada want to explore while he spent time in a day centre?A．Where his invention could be polished.B．What people with Alzheimer’s felt like.C．How Alzheimer’s disease could be cured.D．Whether his invention would be profitable.7．What can we learn about Chadalavada from the text?A．He enjoys living simply.B．He has an innovative mind.C．He used to be a health worker.D．He longs to be a robotics professor.The impact of technology on language is a topic that often causes concern, with many assuming that it is simply ruining it. However, language experts resist such pessimism, noting that there is little evidence to support the view that speech is getting worse. Gretchen McCulloch, in her book Because Internet, focuses on what can be learned about language from the internet rather than talking about its supposed negative effects.McCulloch compares studying language online to growing bacteria (细菌) in a Petri dish,where trends emerge and disappear quickly, allowing language experts to observe changes that would otherwise take a considerable amount of time. The influence of strong ties like friends or family vs weaker ties on language change is analyzed, with computer simulations (模拟) revealing that having both strong and weaker ties helps spread updates in a community.The role of social media platforms in language change is also discussed. Twitter, with its mix of strong and weak ties, is shown to drive more language change than Facebook, which is controlled by stronger ties. Emoji is highlighted as a universal digital expression of gestures, not a language. Additionally, there is evidence that the use of internet“innovations”such as“omg”datesback to pre-computer eras.McCulloch’s book focuses on the birth of a new medium rather than a new language. The rise of mass writing on the internet, characterized by frequent, error-filled, and short-lived communication, challenges traditional ideas about writing’s importance. McCulloch suggests future historians should see this as a return to more casual (随意的) language, paying more attention to the value of tools that improve social interaction online. The book argues against the idea that these changes might lead to the end of “real” writing, advocating for an appreciation of anything that enhances human connection and the enjoyment of each other’s company.8．How might McCulloch sound in her book Because Internet?A．Sensitive.B．Scientific.C．Pessimistic.D．Dismissive. 9．What does paragraph 3 focus on?A．The development of digital language.B．The difference between social media platforms.C．The influence of the internet on language change.D．The connection between humans and the internet.10．Which of the following would McCulloch probably agree with?A．Interpersonal bonds play a role in online communication.B．Formal language is unlikely to improve social interaction.C．The birth of new media has removed writing’s importance.D．Mass writing can make web-based conversations effective.11．What would be the best title for the text?A．How to Achieve Network Effect?B．Technology, Fear or Convenience?C．What If Faced with Media Terms?D．Internet Degrades or Helps Speech?Bottled water has long been marketed as a safe drink—if it doesn’t come straight from a mountain spring, it’s at least clean and free of chemicals. But a new study demonstrates that bottled water may not be so safe when it comes to microscopic plastic pollutants capable of passing into the bloodstream.For years scientists have raised the alarm over microplastics, which form when plastics break down into increasingly smaller particles (微粒), ranging from five millimeters down to onemicrometer. Previous studies have found that a liter of bottled water can contain tens of thousands of identifiable plastic particles. But they stopped at the one micrometer level due to technological restrictions.The study used a new technology to find even smaller particles, and detected an average240,000 plastic particles per liter of bottled water. About 90% of the particles were considered nanoplastics, smaller than one micrometer. Unlike microplastics, they are capable of passing through some organs like lungs into the bloodstream. From there they can stay in the heart muscle and other organs, pass into the brain, and even into the bodies of unborn babies.So far, little research shows what nanoplastics exactly do once they enter the bloodstream. But there is much evidence that chemicals used in plastic production are bad for human health. Even if nanoplastics themselves are not deleterious, they can serve as carriers for the dangerous chemicals, increasing the risk of cancer and impacting key organs such as the heart.“There is a huge world of nanoplastics to be studied,” said the researchers. Even if nanoplastics make up 90% of the number of plastic particles found in bottled water, they make up far less in mass, they said. However, this fact provides little comfort: It’s the numbers rather than mass that matter; and the smaller things are, the more readily they can get inside us.12．What does the technological barrier in the previous studies concern?A．The number of microscopic plastics.B．The quality of water bottles.C．The distribution of plastic pollutants.D．The size of plastic particles.13．What does the text imply about microplastics?A．They are not very likely to pollute bottled water.B．Their number per liter of bottled water is constant.C．They are less potentially risky to health than nanoplastics.D．Their number in springs is larger than that of nanoplastics.14．What does the underlined word “deleterious” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Large.B．Useless.C．Safe.D．Harmful. 15．Why do nanoplastics need further research?A．They are too small to identify.B．They have easy access to organs.C．They are dangerous regarding mass.D．They have a higher percentage in life.Why are Police Officers Called Cops?Police officers are often referred to as cops. 16 Some argue the term is shortened from “copper” and comes from copper badges (徽章) worn by a policeman. Others say that it stands for “Constabulary of Police”.General agreement on the word origins of “cop”, however, suggests that the term is based more on the policeman’s job than on his clothing or job title. In Latin, the verb capere can be defined as “to capture.” In French, the verb is caper. “To cop” in English is to seize or to take.17Some also believe that the Dutch word kapen, which also loosely translates to “to steal or take”, is related to policemen being called coppers or cops. Essentially, the police force was there to take criminals off the streets. 18 And since American English especially draws from German, French, and Latin, the specific language origin of kapen or capere creates a ready path to the term “cop”.19 And it is no longer considered rude. However, certain other terms for police officers are definitely unwelcome. While British Police might not mind being called “bobbies”, no police members like to be referred to as “pigs” or the “fuzz”. Some don’t mind the term the “heat” as applied to the whole police force, but the police force does not generally take kindly to terms given to them by criminals.The term “cop” is in such common usage now that a show documenting their work on the job is called Cops. Even though J. Edgar Hoover once highly objected to the term, it is now fine to refer to a policeman or a police woman as a cop. 20A．The term is slightly less familiar to people.B．So, the Latin, Dutch, and French terms are all similar.C．These words define some of what a police officer does.D．The profession of a police officer was not respected then.E．But the origins of this nickname are something of a debate.F．However, the term “police officer” is generally most correct.G．Today it is appropriate to call members of the police force cops.二、完形填空As soon as the words left my mouth, I knew I'd made a mistake. “You think Jane Austen is...21 ?” the man opposite me asked in disbelief. Then, he and his colleague took turns to 22 my claim.“I just mean…” I said in a bright voice, in order to keep the tone 23 ,“that she's not as biting as Virginia Woolf.”The two professors, like a couple of cats toying with a 24 bird, gave specific examples of how Austen' s work was, 25 , more biting. With no more action to take, I simply smiled and said, “Let's just agree to disagree, shall we?” And at that moment, my dreams of going to Oxford University 26 in a puff of smoke.Part of my problem was a 27 of confidence. Even though I was a straight A student and had prepared for the interview to the best of my ability, I wasn't a skilled 28 .When faced with two experts who told me that I was wrong, instead of 29 myself, I rolled over and accepted 30 .So, months later, I already knew the 31 of my thin envelope when it appeared on my doormat. 32 ,I felt a pang of disappointment. However, failing my Oxford interview provided a 33 life lesson. I'm now more confident of my opinions, and I try to 34 my points with hard evidence. What's more, I have never since 35 a discussion by giving a simpering smile and saying, “Let's just agree to disagree, shall we?”21．A．noble B．soft C．beautiful D．clumsy 22．A．appreciate B．submit C．challenge D．substitute 23．A．pleasing B．serious C．low D．light 24．A．frightened B．brave C．fragile D．naughty 25．A．on the contrary B．by no means C．for example D．beyond expectation 26．A．developed B．arrived C．disappeared D．shifted 27．A．matter B．lack.C．sense D．kind 28．A．debater B．learner C．fighter D．educator 29．A．expressing B．behaving C．defending D．identifying 30．A．truth B．advice C．prejudice D．defeat31．A．details B．spirits C．contents D．statistics 32．A．Frequently B．Originally C．Absolutely D．Naturally 33．A．typical B．valuable C．miserable D．temporary 34．A．make up B．take up C．pick up D．back up 35．A．ended B．mended C．attended D．extended三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

浙江省精诚联盟2024-2025学年高二上学期10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. Let’s explore the top picks for travel destinations in2024.Top City: NairobiNairobi, the Kenyan capital, was chosen for its unique music and dance culture, and impressive local restaurants. Nairobi National Park, just a short drive out of the city’s central business district, is a must-see, where visitors can see over 400 species wandering the open grass plains while skyscrapers (摩天大楼) twinkle on the horizon.Top Country: MongoliaMongolia is loved for its wide-open spaces, adventure activities, and unique food.

The National Police would show up around the same time, with soldiers pacing outside the venue entrances. Cafes did a roaring trade, catering to a steady stream of handball and volleyball fans, dressed in national colors, covered in flags, singing songs. After the Games, a different atmosphere settles in. This is Monday, Day +1 of the Games, the morning after the closing ceremony. The loudspeaker has fallen silent. The 7 am police officer procession is now a workers’ lorry, with workers in bright orange vests tidying away barriers. The roadblocks are gone. The cable car stop has reopened.Is this normal life in south-west Paris? The Games decoration still covers every public space, the flags wave, but the Olympic visitors have disappeared. Forget 28 Days Later — this is 28 Hours Later, and I am an Olympic zombie. During the Games, Paris welcomed 2.4 million visitors, 73% of them French, with half coming just for the day. The remaining 27% were international visitors, up 14% from last year. It was these day-trippers and foreign fans who made Paris so lively and colorful.Before packing for my Tuesday Eurostar, I stopped by a regular local haunt. Two days before the opening ceremony, I had asked the chef-owner of 750g La Table about the Games. His response was clear: “The Olympic Games? It’s a disaster. My takings are down 35%. Businesses are closing. Tourists don’t visit.” Today, I ask him what he thinks now that the show is over. “Ah, I was wrong!” he says, smiling. “I was wrong. It was amazing, for the city and for my business. Now, as you see, we’re not busy. Sit wherever you like. All we do now is rest and clean.” Weshake hands, and I ask him about the future. “Now? I’m going to take a nap,” he says, pretending to sleep and laughing before heading to the back room for a nap. And with that, the spirit of the Games fades, leaving Paris to rest.4．What is the atmosphere in Paris after the Games are over?A．Exciting and cheerful.B．Quiet and relaxed.C．Empty and lifeless.D．Bustling and busy.5．How did the number of visitors change in Paris during the Games?A．Visitor numbers were unchanged.B．Visitor numbers significantly dropped.C．Visitor numbers saw a relative increase.D．Visitor numbers remained fairly constant.6．What does the author’s conversation with the chef-owner imply?A．The chef-owner feared losses initially but later saw benefits.B．The chef-owner saw no impact on his business.C．The chef-owner’s takings are down during the Games.D．The chef-owner regretted participating in the Games.7．What’s the best title of this passage?A．The Olympic Zombie in ParisB．From Olympic Glory to Parisian CalmC．Olympic business boom in ParisD．The Disappearance of Olympic VisitorsOver a decade ago, the science fiction series Black Mirror showed a story about using artificial intelligence to bring back loved ones. Thanks to technological advancement, the latest AI resurrection technology brings hope of recreating loved ones through virtual form.Recently, it was revealed that renowned musician Tino Bao had created a digital version of his daughter, who in 2021 passed away due to a rare disease at the age of 22. With the help of Xiaoice, Microsoft Asia’s AI branch based in China, Bao was able to recreate his daughter Bao Rong as an AI-powered virtual figure. Tino Bao, his family and the team went to great lengths to piece together pictures, audio-visual recordings, and narrated memories of Rong. After thousandsof trials and errors, they presented the life-like digital human who speaks in both Mandarin and English. Bao has finally launched a company to bring the technological miracle to other families experiencing such loss.However, this technological achievement has also been accompanied by many controversies. The idea of bringing back a loved one through AI may seem comforting. Still, researchers caution that constantly interacting with an AI version of a deceased loved one could potentially affect the natural grieving (悲伤) process, leaving individuals stuck in a state of denial. This could lead to prolonged grief and other mental health issues. Furthermore, there’s a risk that people may become overly dependent on the technology, prioritizing their interactions with the AI version over forming new, real-life relationships.With the case of Bao Rong out in the open, AI resurrection has become a business. From simple “talking pictures” that sound nothing like the loved ones to deepfake videos of actors speaking with the faces of those who passed away, the lower end of the market is more “artificial” than “intelligent”. Therefore, it is crucial to establish proper regulations and ethical standards to ensure that the use of AI-resurrection technology is safe and responsible.8．What does the underlined word “resurrection” in para.1 most likely mean?A．The act of bringing something back to life or existence.B．The process of improving AI technology.C．The development of new virtual forms.D．The combination of memories and technology.9．What is a possible consequence of constantly interacting with an AI version of a deceased loved one?A．It may cause people to forget the real memories of the loved one.B．It may prevent people from using other AI technologies.C．It may prolong the natural grieving process and cause mental health problems.D．It may lead to the decline of the AI industry.10．Which of the following statements about the future of AI resurrection technology is correct?A．It will eventually replace traditional ways of memorizing loved ones.B．It needs proper regulations and ethical standards to ensure safe and responsible use.C．It will be completely banned due to ethical concerns.D．It will develop healthily without proper regulations.11．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The introduction of the science fiction series Black Mirror.B．The process of creating an AI version of a loved one.C．The benefits and controversies of using AI to recreate loved ones.D．The development of AI technology in the field of music.It’s always supposed that one is either a “cat person” or a “dog person”. Dogs, the assumption goes, are loyal, affectionate, and fun; cats, as Mrs Beeton suggested in 1862, are “selfish, cruel, greedy, and without a bit of affection”. But what does it reveal about someone who prefers the company of cats? This interesting question is at the heart of Kathryn Hughes’s Catland, where she explores the cultural significance of cats throughout history.Hughes traces the history of the cat in culture and society, focusing on its journey from pest to pet in the mid-19th-century. She also explores the anthropomorphic (拟人的) world of “cat art” created by the 19th-century artist Louis Wain. The famous novelist H. G. Wells once credited Wain with “inventing a cat style, a cat society, and a whole cat world.” In Wain’s comic-like pictures, cats adopt human form, wear clothes, drive cars, and parent naughty baby cats. Standing on their back legs with huge, expressive eyes, Wain’s cat subjects often reflect their view, offering a unique social observation on the period.In addition to Wain’s contributions, Hughes explores the broader 19th-century interest in cats. She suggests that the mystery surrounding cats could easily lead to misunderstandings between humans and these animals, potentially explaining the origins of ailments (疾病) like ailurophobia (the fear of cats).The book also highlights the influence of cats on famous figures of the time. For example, while Hardy is buried at Westminster Abbey, his heart is famously transported and buried with his beloved cat in a graveyard in Dorset, having been transported there in a biscuit tin.Returning to Louis Wain, his later years took a darker turn. Declared mentally ill and committed to a mental hospital, Wain continued to create art, but his cats took on a dream-like, colorful character, far removed from the naughty baby cats of his earlier work.12．What assumptions are made about “cat people” and “dog people”?A．Dog people are intelligent, while cat people are untrustworthy.B．Dog people are independent, while cat people are affectionate.C．Dog people are faithful, while cat people are self-centered.D．Dog people are shy, while cat people are outgoing.13．What can we learn from the third paragraph?A．People like cats because they are mystical creatures.B．Hughes is more interested in cats than Wain.C．The mystery of cats results from people’s misunderstanding.D．Misunderstandings of cat behavior may lead to fear.14．Why does the author mention Thomas Hardy in paragraph 4?A．To illustrate the influence of cats on famous figures.B．To show the popularity of cats among famous people.C．To prove that Hardy was a “cat person”.D．To discuss the burial traditions of famous people.15．What’s the difference between Wain’s later work and his earlier ones?A．Later work described cats in natural settings.B．Earlier work focused more on cats instead of dogs.C．Later work turned more serious and darker.D．Later work is more dream-like and striking.Research has shown that spending more time outside is key to the nation’s well-being. Nearly two thirds of UK adults said that taking in the colors, sights, smells and sounds of the great outdoors by gardening or being surrounded by nature helped with their mental wellbeing and lowered stress levels. Now is a great time to dig out your trowel and get your hands dirty in some soil. 16 Pick your ownThere’s nothing like eating your own vegetables. From picking your own strawberries or unearthing the first new potatoes of the year, homegrown vegetable is a joy. It simply tastes better. Once you start home growing you may never stop.You don’t need to have a large plot to do so either. 17 Don’t forget that a windowsill garden should also provide color as well as be useful, so experiment with differentvarieties for attractive leaves. 18Over the garden fence, while weeding your window boxes, it’s amazing whoever you talk to when you’re enjoying tending to your plants or vegetables. Simply being out and about in your garden invites interaction and conversation with neighbors and people in your local area, which in itself has multiple social and wellbeing benefits.Additionally, whether you’re a learner or a keen gardener, community gardening groups can also be invaluable for information sharing. 19 Stay healthyDid you know that the amount of calories burnt from 30 minutes of gardening is comparable to playing badminton, volleyball or practicing yoga? From digging to weeding to lopping and mowing, there’s a whole world of muscle movement when you’re planting and tidying. 20 Research carried out by the RHS and Coventry University shows that a good digging technique was found to have minimal backbend and a large knee bend, so be mindful and make sure you’re saving yourself from a future potential bad back.A．Join gardening groupsB．Start community conversationsC．Here are top reasons to get gardening this year.D．Herbs and smaller vegetables are more than happy in pots on windowsills or small balconies. E．However, ensuring you’re completing jobs with minimal strain and risk of injury is imperative. F．Looking after plants in window boxes also boosted wellbeing—showing that you don’t need a big garden.G．Local seed and plant swap groups are also a great way of meeting people and getting rid of unwanted plants.二、完形填空“I will have revenge (复仇) on him.” said Philip to himself, with a face quite red with anger. His mind was so 21 that he did not see Stephen, who happened at that instant to meet him.Stephen asked, “on whom you intend to be revenged?”As if 22 from a dream, stopped short, and looking at his friend, Philip said, “It wasfarmer Robinson’s son who reduced it to this 23 state.”“I was walking peaceably along,” he replied, “and was playing with my cane (藤条) 24 twisting it round my body. By accident, one of the 25 slipped out of my hand. It so happened that my cane, in springing back, upset the pot the ill-natured fellow had put down, but did not break it. He came up close to me, began to call me names, seized my cane, and twisted it, as you see.”“To be sure,” said Stephen, “he is a very bad boy, and is already very properly 26 for being such, 27 nobody likes him or will have anything to do with him.” “Now, Philip,” continued Stephen, “I think you will act better in not minding him, as your contempt will be the best punishment you can put upon him. And, I will tell you what happened to him not long before.”“Very unluckily for him, he chanced to see a bee hovering about a flower which he caught, and was going to 28 its wings, when the animal stung him. The pain put him into a furious passion, and, like you, he vowed revenge. Finally the whole swarm flew out and stung him in a hundred different places. They had stung him so 29 that he was confined several days to his bed.”“Thus, you see, he was not very successful in his 30 of revenge. I would advise you, therefore, to 31 his fault. He is a bad boy and much stronger than you; so that your ability to obtain this revenge may be doubtful.”“I must own,” replied Philip, “that your advice seems very good.”A few days afterward, Philip saw this ill-natured boy fall as he was carrying home a heavy log of wood, 32 he could not lift up again. Philip ran to him, and helped him to replace it on his shoulder. Young Robinson was quite 33 at the thought of this unmerited kindness. Philip went home quite satisfied. “This,” he said, “is the noblest 34 I could take, in returning good for evil. It is 35 I should feel sorry for it.”21．A．appointed B．engaged C．employed D．involved 22．A．to awaken B．to be awaken C．awakened D．awakening 23．A．comfortable B．peaceful C．worthless D．meaningful 24．A．by B．on C．through D．for 25．A．canes B．flowers C．sticks D．ends26．A．punished B．blamed C．scolded D．criticized 27．A．when B．although C．since D．while 28．A．cut off B．pull off C．take off D．shut off 29．A．severely B．tightly C．uncomfortably D．tensely 30．A．affection B．thought C．pursuit D．hope 31．A．pass over B．turn over C．hand over D．go over 32．A．that B．when C．what D．which 33．A．excited B．ashamed C．regretted D．annoyed 34．A．responsibility B．revenge C．kindness D．mercy 35．A．certain B．natural C．improper D．impossible三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

黑龙江省哈尔滨市第三中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月考英语试题
黑龙江省哈尔滨市第三中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月考英语试题一、阅读理解Whether you’re searching for a relaxing beach break, a cultural journey, or an active adventure, there are several must-see destinations offered to content you in 2024.CyprusCyprus is an attractive island in the eastern Mediterranean Sea and has been noted since ancient times for its mineral wealth, superb wine and produce, and natural beauty. Cyprus is home to a number of ancient archaeological (考古的) sites, peaceful beaches and lively cities. With a diverse range of experiences, Cyprus invites you to uncover its cultural treasures.HuludaoLocated in the southwest coastal area of Liaoning Province, China, Huludao neighbors the Bohai Bay to the south, and is bounded on the west by Shanhaiguan Pass. The continuous coastline provides not only rich seafood but also many sun-kissed beaches. There are many cultural landscapes, including Xingcheng Ancient City and Jiumenkou Great Wall. Xingcheng Ancient City is one of the four most complete ancient cities from the Ming Dynasty with many ancient buildings.MaldivesIn the Indian Ocean, the Maldives is a dream destination with greenish-blue waters and pure white sands. Whether you’re in search of relaxation or romance, the Maldives has it all and more. Be sure to explore the colourful coral reefs (珊瑚礁) and the amazing surroundings, or simply just relax on the sands.DubaiOn the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula, Dubai has grown to become a global centre for tourism, business, and cultural experiences. Home to a typical skyline with the tallest building in the world, Dubai has world-class attractions and inviting shopping malls. Head to the untouched beaches to relax or be shocked at futuristic architecture and design. You could even take a bit of a risk in the desert.1．What do Cyprus and Huludao commonly share?A．Ancient culture.B．Lively cities.C．Research sites.D．Superb wine.2．Which destination would an adventurous person choose?A．Cyprus.B．Huludao.C．Maldives.D．Dubai.3．Where might we find the text?A．In a history book.B．On an adventure poster.C．On a travel website.D．In a scientific journal.I truly believe we all have a very special purpose in life, regardless of who we are or where we come from. After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start a new day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.Toward the end of my fourth year at Merrill Lynch, it hit me that something was missing. I thought long and hard about my goals. Then I was reminded of the time when I spoke to hundreds of people, while in college as a student leader, and years later, when I won a “Humorous Speech” championship. It dawned on me that every time I had a speaking engagement, I always came out of the experience with a wonderful, energetic, peaceful and magical feeling that was unmatched by anything else I did. I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives.Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker. The beginning of my speaking journey was surprisingly similar to what I had first experienced at Merrill Lynch. However, nothing in theworld comes close to the satisfying feeling I get when thousands of people tell me how much I have made a difference in their lives by motivating them to take risks and be the best they could be.4．Why did the author meet with a Merrill Lynch branch vice president?A．To get a position.B．To employ more clerks.C．To arrange an interview.D．To make an advertisement.5．Which of the following best describes the author according to paragraph 2?A．Generous and ambitious.B．Sensitive and successful.C．Tough and competent.D．Optimistic and agreeable.6．Why did the author leave Merrill Lynch?A．Because he hoped to relive college life.B．Because he wanted to influence others.C．Because he had an engagement.D．Because his investment was not satisfying. 7．Which is the most suitable title for the text?A．Dare to Take Risks.B．Perseverance Pays Off.C．Reconsider Your Career Choice.D．Speaking Makes a Satisfying Job.In general, just about every mammal (哺乳动物) relies on a community of gut bacteria (肠道细菌) for health and survival. Many animals have even developed to the point that closely related host species typically share more similar gut bacteria. But a new study has identified a converse phenomenon on one group of mammals — bats. The gut bacteria of closely related bats can be totally distinct from each other.To learn about the relationships between bats and their gut bacteria, post-doctoral researcher Holly Lutz and her co-workers took samples of bacteria from the skin, tongues, and guts of 497 bats from 31 different species in Kenya and Uganda. They discovered bats have fewer bacterial species living in their guts than in their mouths and on their skin. What’s more, gut bacteria living in different bats are individually distinctive, following no apparent pattern. This struck the scientists as strange, since for most other mammals that have been studied, closely related hosts share more similar gut bacteria.“There’s essentially no relationship between bats’ gut bacteria and their evolutionary (进化的) history,” says Lutz. While host identity is still an important factor in predicting the species ofgut bacteria, this may simply be tied to where those bats live and what they eat. The fact that bats’ gut bacteria are more closely tied to where bats live than where those bats fall on the bat family tree indicates that developing a special relationship with just-right gut bacteria may not have been as important for bats as it has been for other mammals.Lutz suspects that bats’ unique relationships with gut bacteria are related to the feature that sets them apart from other mammals: their ability to fly. “Bats have extremely shortened guts,” she explains. “Food takes just fifteen to thirty minutes to pass through a bat’s digestive system, a third as long as it would take for a similarly sized animal. That’s likely because a long, winding digestive canal would weigh the bats down.”8．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “converse” in paragraph 1?A．Typical.B．Potential.C．Inspiring.D．Opposite. 9．What surprised the researchers?A．Gut bacteria vary with related bats.B．Mammals share similar gut bacteria.C．There are 497 varieties of bats in Kenya.D．Bats have the most bacteria in their mouths. 10．Why do bats have rather shortened guts according to Lutz?A．To quicken their food digestion.B．To make them lighter for flight.C．To help improve their ability to fly.D．To fit in with their digestive system. 11．What’s the main idea of the text?A．Bats contain a diverse range of bacteria.B．Bats don’t seem to need gut bacteria to evolve.C．Bacteria play a big role in bats’ health and survival.D．Bats don’t rely on gut bacteria the way other mammals do.Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on” world.We have studied teens and tech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected — it’s keeping up withwhat others post, too.Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than ever before. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking.Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延迟) can be hurtful.Technologies have transformed how friendships develop. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society.12．What makes teenagers’ networks continue to expand?A．The pressure to be nice.B．The requests of their parents.C．The need to meet more people.D．The burden of living independently. 13．What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media?A．Exciting.B．Challenging.C．Time-saving.D．Risk-taking. 14．What should be changed according to the last paragraph?A．The qualities of being a teen friend.B．The conflicts between schools and parents.C．The relations between parents and their teens.D．The influences of social media on teen friendship.15．What is the purpose of the text?A．To explain why more teens are addicted to social media.B．To instruct how teens can gain long-standing friendships.C．To inform readers of the teens’ pressure caused by social media.D．To illustrate what makes teens become more sensitive to their peers’ needs.Establishing a strong professional image helps individuals maintain positive workplace relationships and present themselves appropriately.

Many people 21 it this way, “A man comes to this world with his fist clenched (紧握)，but when he dies, his hand is 22 .”Surely we ought to hold fast to life, for it is 23 , and full of a beauty that breaks through your own earth. Sometimes we recognize this 24 only in our backward glance when we suddenly realize that it is no more.We remember a beauty that 25 , a love that disappeared. But we remember with far greater pain that we did not see that beauty when it flowered, that we 26 to respond with love when it was tendered.A recent experience re-taught me this truth. I was 27 following a severe heart attack and had been in intensive care for several days. It was not a pleasant place.One morning, I had to have some additional tests. The required machines were located in a building at the opposite end of the hospital, so I had to be 28 across the courtyard on a gurney (轮床).As we emerged from our unit, the sunlight hit me. That’s 29 . And yet how beautiful it was -how warming, how sparkling, how brilliant!I looked to see whether anyone else enjoyed the sun’s golden glow, but everyone was 30 to and fro, most with eyes fixed on the ground. Then I remembered how often we had been 31 to the beauty of each day, too preoccupied with chores. Life’s gifts are 32 , but we always pay no attention to them.Never too busy for the 33 and the awe of life. Embrace each hour, 34 each golden minute. Hold fast to life, but not so fast that you can’t let go. We must 35 our losses, and learn how to let go.21．A．do B．put C．make D．get 22．A．closed B．tight C．open D．rough 23．A．amazing B．confusing C．frightening D．touching 24．A．clue B．theory C．message D．truth25．A．faded B．bounced C．escaped D．jumped 26．A．tackled B．reflected C．failed D．succeeded 27．A．hospitalized B．rushed C．exchanged D．delivered 28．A．dragged B．wheeled C．pushed D．pulled 29．A．available B．terrible C．awesome D．troublesome 30．A．smiling B．hurrying C．trembling D．lying 31．A．indifferent B．attached C．devoted D．sensitive 32．A．useful B．expensive C．valueless D．precious 33．A．trend B．trick C．philosophy D．wonder 34．A．stick B．abandon C．seize D．endure 35．A．accept B．deny C．insist D．avoid三、单项选择36．Joseph, having decided to move to Ireland, at once ________ making his dream a reality.A．put on B．turned down C．set about D．came off37．________ investigations show that there are no significant differences between the two groups.A．Permanent B．Abstract C．Remarkable D．Preliminary 38．Much to her relief, Della eventually got a job at a travel agency after nearly ten ________.A．interactions B．compositions C．expectations D．rejections 39．Americans eat ________ as they actually need every day.A．twice the protein B．twice more protein C．twice as muchprotein D．twice what protein40．One will ________ the times if one does not acquire new knowledge.A．cross out B．fall behind C．keep pace with D．give way to 41．He laughed, ________ a line of white teeth.A．guaranteeing B．revealing C．contrasting D．innovating 42．As is known to us, all theories originate from practice and ________ serve practice.A．in turn B．in particular C．in a row D．in a nutshell 43．This policy is worth ________ out, through ________ we can double our work efficiency.A．being carried; which B．carrying; which C．being carried; thatD．carrying; that44．________ in attending to professional matters, he doesn’t have much time for entertainment.A．Employed B．Equipped C．Based D．Related45．The villagers, who were once ________ debt, are appreciative ________ the government because of the policies they applied to move them out of poverty.A．in; for B．with; for C．in; of D．with; of四、语法填空46．It is important to have your eyes (examine) regularly to check for any sign of eye disease. （所给词的适当形式填空）47．Convinced of the (accurate) of the data, they carried out their plan as scheduled. （所给词的适当形式填空）48．People still take delight talking about the legendary story. （用适当的词填空）49．The point, which they regarded as not worthy (consider), turned out to be fairly important. （所给词的适当形式填空）50．It is only when you can break away from the past a whole new world can open up to you. （用适当的词填空）51．The team is composed of experienced and mature professionals, most of graduated from key universities in China. （用适当的词填空）52．The whole playground was excited with the audience cheering (enthusiastic) for the athletes.

Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer．Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what he does not know.41．According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by_____.A．listening to skilled people’s advice．B．asking older people many questionsC．making mistakes and having them correctedD．doing what other people do42．Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do?A．Give children correct answersB．Allow children to mark mistakes.C．Point out children’s mistakes to them.D．Let children mark their own work43．According to the writer, teachers in school should _____A．allow children to learn from each otherB．point out children’s mistakes whenever foundC．correct children’s mistakes as soon as possibleD．give children more book knowledge44．The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are____ A．different from learning other skillsB．the same as learning skillsC．more important than other skillsD．not really important skills45．The title of this passage could probably be_____A．Let Us Teachers Stop WorkB．Let Us Make Children LearnC．Let Children Correct Their ExercisesD．Let Children Learn by ThemselvesBThat cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco．There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater．With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines．I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time．As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco．City life had become too much for me．As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold．I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers(抢劫犯)．Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.[About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me．I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun．The street was empty．All I saw was a shining streetlight．Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster．Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been．It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore．I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise．Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck(垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me．When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming．How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes．“Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m．by the time I got into bed．I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back．I also had got back some enjoyment of city life．I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.46．How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A．Cold and sick B．Lucky and hopefulC．Satisfied and cheerful D．Disappointed and helpless47．From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy_____.A．solving her problem at the bank B．taking part in various city activitiesC．learning acting in an evening school D．preparing for the first night show48．On her way home the writer_____A．lost her wallet unknowinglyB．was stopped by a garbage truck driverC．was robbed of her wallet by a man with a knifeD．found some homeless people following her49．In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A．Someone offered to take her back homeB．A red-haired man came to see her.C．She heard someone call her nameD．Her wallet was found in a garbage truck50．From the text, we can infer that the writer_____A．would stop working at night B．would stay on in San FranciscoC．would make friends with cleaners. D．would give up her job at the bankCWhen I met him，I had a lot of anger inside of me．I‘ve lived my whole life in Spanish Harlem，but in my neighborhood，there are shoot-ups all the time．I know kids who have been shot or beaten up．I have friends who ended up in prison．I could have ended up that way，too，but Mr．Clark wouldn’t let that happen.Mr．Clark worked long hours，making sure I did my work．My grades rose．In fact，the scores of our whole class rose．One day，he took our class to see The Phantom of the Opera，and it was the first time some kids had ever been out of Harlem．Before the show，he treated us to dinner at a restaurant and taught us not to talk with our mouths full．We did not want to let him down.Mr．Clark was selected as Disney‘s Teacher of the Year．He said he would draw three names out of a hat；those students would go with him to Los Angles to get the award．But when the time came to draw names，Mr．Clark said，“You’re all going.”On graduation day，there were a lot of tears．We didn‘t want his class to end．In ，he moved to Atlanta，but he always kept in touch．He started giving lectures about education，and wrote a bestselling book based on his classroom rules，The Essential 55．In ，Mr．Clark took some of us on a trip to South Africa to deliver school supplies and visit orphanages （孤儿院）。
