In the Cambridgeshire village where he is currently working, it is easy to spot a thatched cottage.Chris guides me to a couple of chairs where we can talk. “There is no thatching without mess,” he says cheerfully. “A rethatch takes my assistant and me around 10 weeks, so it’s important that customers feel comfortable having us around,” he says.Chris is also sensitive to the cultural heritage (遗产) of his craft (手艺). “If you ask tourists to think of traditional English things, they will probably say thatched cottages and afternoon tea.” In the past 200 years, little has changed in terms of technique. “My great-grandfather would recognize the methods we use,” says Chris.Though the principles of the craft are simple, they are hard to perfect. “Every roof is different; the skill of a good thatcher is adapting the material to a cottage so that it looks neat and smooth.” Individual craftsmen also develop their styles. “I can drive around, see a“One might expect the industry to be in decline. On the contrary, there is a surprisingly healthy demand for new-builds. In addition, 97 percent of thatched properties are listed, so they have to remain thatched and be rethatched. The National Society of Master Thatchers has around 150 members and most of the thatchers who retire are replaced by young thatc hers,” Chris adds.4.Which word can best describe Chris according to paragraph 2?A. Considerate.B. Courageous.C. Cool-minded.D. Strong-willed.5.What does Chris tell us about thatched cottages?A. They are typically English.B. They can be built in the pouring rain.C. Their appearance has changed greatly.D. Their building methods differ from those of the past.6.What does Chris suggest by saying “So-and-so did that”?A. Craftsmen are not fond of learning.B. Different thatchers have different styles.C. Thatchers adopt new principles of the craft.D. Craftsmen make ridges with unique functions.7.How would Chris feel about thatchers’ future?A. It will be embarrassing.B. It will be uncertain.C. It will be stressful.D. It will be promising.An era in which an Alzheimer’s diagnosis can begin in a doctor’s office is now arriving. The new technology can detect early signs of disease from a blood sample, which is helping doctors to identify the memory-robbing disorder more accurately.Last fall, a blood test developed by C2N Diagnostics in St. Louis, Mo. , became available to most of the U.S. as a routine lab test. It has also received a CE mark as a diagnostic medical device in the European Union —indicating it has met safety, health and environmental protection standards for the region.The C2N test, called PrecivityAD, uses an analytic technique to detect specific types of B-amyloid, a protein fragment that is a pathological (病理学的) feature of disease. B-amyloid proteins accumulate and form plaques (斑块) visible on brain scans two decades before a patient notices memory problems. As plaques build up in the brain, levels of ß-amyloid decline in the surrounding fluid.Such changes can be measured in spinal fluid (脊髓液) samples — and now in blood, where ß-amyloid concentrations are significantly lower. PrecivityAD is the first blood test forcould enable early detection of the leading disease — perhaps decades before the onset of the first symptoms.8.According to the passage, which can help doctors identify Alzheimer’s?A. hair.B. blood.C. skin.D. tongue. 9.What is the function of B-amyloid in the brain?A. To decline in the surrounding fluid.B. To form plaques visible on brain scans.C. To accumulate and cause memory problems.D. To serve as a pathological feature of disease.10.What does the underlined word “assays” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Tests.B. Trials.C. Treatments.D. Analysis. 11.What does the author think of the PrecivityAD?A. Indifferent.B. Doubtful.C. Supportive.D. Pessimistic.Americans do not believe their personal information is safe online, suggests findingsfrom a new poll (民意调查). They are also not satisf ied with the federal government’s efforts to protect such information.The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and Meri Talk did the polling. It found that 64 percent of Americans say their social media activity is not secure. About as many have the same safety concerns about online information that shares their physical location. Half of Americans also believe their private text messages are not secure.They are not just concerned. They want the federal government to do something about it. Almost 75 percent of Americans say they support creating laws for how companies can collect, use and share personal data.A majority of those who took part in the poll said they have more trust in private companies than the federal government to address security and privacy issues. This comes even after years of hacks (黑客) of U. S. corporations that shared the personal information of millions of people around the world.The poll answers showed that about 71 percent of Americans believe that individ uals’ data privacy should be treated as a national security issue. But only 23 percent are satisfied with the federal government’s current efforts.The law follows similar measures passed in California and Virginia, and gives people the right to find and delete personal information. Colorado’s law also permits people to choose out of having their data tracked and sold. Facebook and other companies opposed the bill.The poll showed that protecting personal information online is “an area where people do see a direct role in government,” Benz said.12.What percentage of Americans think their private text messages are not safe?A. 36 percent.B. 50 percent.C. 64 percent.D. 75 percent.13.What do almost 75 percent of Americans support according to the poll?A. Creating laws for companies to deal with personal data.B. Allowing personal data to be treated as a business issue.C. Giving private companies more control over data privacy.D. Trusting the federal government to fix the problem for them.14.Who do Americans have more trust in to solve security and privacy issues?A. Themselves.B. Social media platforms.C. Private companies.D. The federal government.15.What is the best title for the text?A. Americans are not safe online.B. Americans are trying to protect themselves online.C. Americans have little trust in the federal government.D. Americans have little trust in online security.二、七选五16.How to make Chinese pancakesChinese pancakes, also known as “spring pancakes”, can be used in many differ ent ways in Chinese cooking.

ASo how do you kill time to relax yourself?Here are some of the things my friends and I did to have fun without modern conveniences last month.Playing cards can bring hours of fun! It is the most common card game. You only need a pack of cards. The games include 'President’, ‘Cheat’ and a take on the game” ‘UNO’ .One player hides a thimble or another small object in a room, while the other players stay outside. The other players then return to the room and look for the object. The player who hid the thimble can give clues or say ‘hot’or 'cold’ depending on how close the players are to the object. The person who finds the item first wins.Board games are great at helping pass the time on a dull day. In the game, players have to deduce( 判断)the mystery of the story. For example,when solving the mystery of the broken toy, players have to discover which toy it was, who broke it, and when it was broken.This is a very amusing game. All you need is a pen and piece of paper for each person in the group. Everyone writes the beginning of a story.Then it is passed to the next person in the circle,who writes the next word or sentence. But the challenge is that the paper is folded so that only the most recent phrase can be seen before being passed again to the next player, who writes the next line and so on. After ten sentences have been written, the whole story is seen clearly. Usually there will be some funny stories to make you laugh!A. Card games.B. Hunt the thimble.C. Board games.D.Consequences.A. Players need a pen and piece of paper.B. Players must write clearly and completelyC. Players should write the beginning of a story on the paper.D. Players can only see the most recent part of the folded paper.A. To instruct readers to play four games.B. To compare which game is more funny.C. To introduce some games to pass the time.D. To inform readers he could play four games.Ferrell got the standard well wishes on the website on her 53rd birthday, but she got some unusual messages too. One message was from a family in California who had just lost their four -year-old son to cancer. His older brother was heartbroken. Could Ferrell help?That message was exactly what Ferrell was looking for.To celebrate her 53rd,the longtime social service worker had put out a call on her website. She wanted to perform 53 acts of kindness by the end of her birth month! and she needed information on people who could use one. When she got the note about the California family, she sent a wind chime(风铃)with the message "Listen to the wind and know that I am near" carved on it. It now hangs in the four-year-old’s bedroom, where his brother can listen to it whenever he wants.This is not the first time that Ferrell has decided to give gifts for her birthday. For her47th,she founded Love with Skin On, an organization devoted to doing good deeds. Over the years, Ferrell has reached out and touched over 100 strangers, some found online, others with help from her grandkids. In another act of giving, she shared her favorite creative gift ideas online for others to use.Ferrell pays for everything herself:gift cards and care packages.Her family often gives her some extra birthday cash with a warning not to spend it on anyone else, which she naturally ignores.“I got a couple of giftcards for my birthday this year and was like“YESSS!”It’s Ferrell’s party, and she’ll give if she wants to.A To bring a message to the familyC. To comfort the child who lost his brother.B. To ask for the needed informationD. To help the child lean about a wind chime.A. She began to give gifts at 53.B. She did 53 acts of kindness in total.C.

Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.“Pale Moon rains.Red Moon blows.White Moon neither rains nor snows."For generations,people have watched the Moon for signs of changes in the weather.The Moon does,in fact,affect the Earth's climate and weather patterns in different ways.The most obvious effect the Moon has on the Earth can be seen in the ocean tides.A world without tides would have very different weather systems. Tides are one factor that influences the movement of ocean currents, whichmove warm or cool water around the Earth. Thus, the water temperature changes. Warm ocean currents bring warmer and wetter weather, while cold ocean currents bring colder and drier weather.The Moon is also thought to affect polar temperatures and contribute to fluctuations in the amount of Arctic ice.Tidal forces(潮汐力)act to break up ice sheets and change ocean heat flows, changing the amount of ice in the Arctic Ocean. Satellite measurements have shown that the poles are 0.55℃ warmer during a full Moon.The Moon's influence,sometimes slight and sometimes strong, has had an important impact on life on Earth. Some scientists argue that it is the Moon that made life possible in the first place. The Moon makes the Earth move steadily as it is spinning( 自转),helping to give us a steady climate. Without it,the Earth would lose balance. TheMoon is our closest friend,without which the Earth would be a very lonely place.A. To appreciate the moon.B. To record weather patterns.C. To prepare for extreme weather.D.To observe signs of weather changesA.It influences water temperature C. It turns the earth colder and drier.B.It makes weather hard to predictD. It changes the size of ocean currents.A.Change.B.Increase.C.Flow.D. Measurement.A.Changes of Ocean Heat Flows. C.Causes of Changes in Polar Weather.B.Patterns of the Earth's Climate.D. Effects of the Moon on Global Weather When I'm on my social media, I sometimes feel like I'm in a modern, virtual agora(露天集市) of ancient Greek city -states. This was the center of town, the place where business was conducted, goods were bought and sold, and ideas were exchanged. For many people, the agora was not just a marketplace; it was the stage on which the dramas of daily life started. Social media now provides that space.In the age of social media, we may be returning to a state in which a thinker's wisdom relies on his ability toperform it. That is to say, we are able to transform that performance into online information.Some of the best -known public people of the present day have realized this. Jordan Poterson and Bren é Brown, for example, have lots of followings across their social media platforms, using them as major platforms to spread their ideas. While neither of them may call themselves as philosophers, both deal with basic philosophical ideas about happiness and how to live.However, could the competitive performance of wisdom fully show whether people really owned it? Plato thought it might be a problem, and it can also be seen from the “Information War"of the present day. So, what if you're good at social media - does that mean that you have anything of value to say? Popularity may be measured bylikes, but wisdom is not.A. They focus on trade of goods.B. They offer a stage to do dramas.C. They are both the center of town.D.They allow ideas to be exchangedA.Returning to ancient Greek city -states C. Using social media to spread their ideasB.Transforming old habits into new ones.D.Building a stage to put on some performancesA.By giving examples.B. By using a quotationC.By making a comparisonA.A guidebook.B.A magazine.D. By providing research data.C. A textbook.D.A novel.Whether it's to improve your fitness, health or environment, taking up bicycle riding can be one of the bestdecisions you have ever made.26______.

It takes around5 percent of the materials and energy used to make a car to build a bike, and a bike produces zero pollution.27.______.Cycling just 20 miles a week reduces your risk of heart disease to less than half that of those who take no exercise.

Merrill first thought about going to school part-time to get a degree, but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school. Certainly, it was a challenge. Speaking of her successfully returning to university, Merrill owed it to her family largely. "When I was accepted by Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, we moved from Penn-sylvania to Arizona, "said Merrill, who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency (实习期) in neurosurgery. "In fact, they volunteered these movements. I know it was tough for all of us. "Merrill and her children often have "homework parties" where they study for their ownknowing her 11-year-old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom's going to be a cool brain surgeon, though he doesn't understand that really.Merrill's next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male-dominated field where only 5% of board-certified neurosurgeons are women. Dr. Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student. Halyard said, "If you can deal with nine children patiently, the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail."Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly career, but, again, she chose to follow her original dream. It's the same advice she would give to all. "Set the goal which you're really enthusiastic about, and it helps to think small. If you know what your interest is, focus on the next step. Then you'll get where you want to go."4.Why does Merrill mention their house moving?A.To stress the support of her family.B.To show her determination to be a doctor.C.To reflect difficulties in attending college.D.To describe the process of pursuing her dream.5.What does the underlined word "stimulus" mean in Paragraph 3?fort.B.Development.C.Choice.D.Inspiration.6.What do Halyard's words in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Merrill can make it in the residency.B.Merrill will have more stress to handle.C.Being mom ensures Merrill a better doctor.D.Staying focused and sensible is key to success.7.What does Merrill mainly suggest in the last paragraph?A.Starting with small things.B.Being true to your passion.C.Choosing a family-friendly career.D.Having the courage to dream big.Adaptation and innovation (创新) of traditional opera is an important trend in Chinese opera circle in recent years. In order to attract young audience of new generation and catch up with the time, traditional opera circle makes efforts to create new works. In recent years, traditional opera has come across the change of time and society. It gradually lost the main elderly audience and was not attractive for the young.In order to find new opportunities, using modern sound, light and digital stage effects, China's traditional Peking, also known as jingju, Opera is appealing to young people in a fashionable and innovative way, as the classic art faces an aging audience.The centuries-old Tianleyuan Theater in Beijing has introduced fashionable performances of Peking Opera. The opera combines instrumental music, vocal performance, mime (哑剧表演) , dance and acrobatics (杂技) .Tianleyuan has a jingju art experience section and fashionable performances. It has attracted more than 2,000 audience members, mostly young people, according to theater staff."Good art should keep pace with the times, so does jingju, "said Zhang Zishang, a 22-year-old performer of The Drunken Beauty, one of the classic jingju plays performed in the theater. "I feel today's performance is very special, "Zhang added. She was born into a family of jingju performers and has had 10 years of stage experience. "Innovation is good, but we must also carry on the basic elements of jingju, "another young performer Deng said.According to Deng, innovation is perhaps the best way for jingju to deal with the problem of an aging audience. It has made successful attempts to combine jingju with local opera forms such as ballet when organizing performances abroad. "Innovation can help traditional arts go further. We are happy to see many young faces, and some of them even come twice to experience the 'new' art, " she added.8.Why is adaptation and innovation of traditional opera important?A.To run after fashion.B.To attract the young audience.C.To improve digital stage effect.D.To change the traditional opera circle. 9.Which of the following can best describe Tianleyuan Theater?A.A destroyer of Peking Opera.B. An objector of modern opera.C.A pioneer of innovative opera.D.A defender of traditional opera.10.How does Deng feel about the innovation of jingju?A.Favourable.B.Unreliable.C.Worthless.D.Conservative. 11.Which one can be a suitable title for the text?A.The Traditional Opera Is Dying OutB.The Future of the Traditional Opera Is PromisingC.The Performers of the Traditional Opera Are Supporting JingjuD.Traditional Opera Circle Is Innovating to Attract Young AudienceEating too much fat contributes to the risk of stroke (中风) and other heart diseases. However, it's the type of fat, not the amount, that appears to be more important when it comes to stroke. Eating plant-based fats lowers stroke risk, according to a study presentation given at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2021.The study, which hasn't yet been proved by other researchers, found people who ate the most vegetable-based fats were 12% less likely to experience a stroke compared to those who ate the least. On the other hand, people who ate the highest levels of animal-based saturated (饱和) fats were 16% more likely to experience a stroke than those who ate the least fats of that kind. The findings show the type and different food sources of fat are more important than the total amount of fat in preventing certain diseases, including stroke."You need fat to survive. Fat helps your body absorb vitamins from foods, build cells, give you energy and keep you warm. But it's the unsaturated fats that come from vegetables, nuts and fatty fish that can lower your cholesterol (胆固醇) level and help keep you healthy. Saturated fats are generally not as healthy, which mainly come from red and processed meat, " said Dr. Frank Hu, one of the authors of the study.A proper reduction in red and processed meat consumption with a healthy eating pattern can reduce total deathrate by 13%, heart disease death by 14%, cancer death by 11% and Type 2 Diabetes risk by 24%, according to the study.Interestingly, dairy fat was not associated with a higher risk of stroke, the study found. There has been an ongoing debate among researchers as to the role of dairy. The diet guide lines for Americans call for three servings of low-and no-fat dairy each day.12.How does Paragraph 2 mainly develop?A.By making comparisons.B.By analyzing causes and effects.C.By providing examples.D.By following the order of time.13.Which kind of food doesn't have unsaturated fats according to Paragraph 3?A.Corn.B.Beans.C.Nuts.D.Beef.14.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The type of fat matters when it comes to stroke.B.People should eat less red meat to keep healthy.C.Fat plays an important role in people's life.D.Americans need three servings of dairy per day.15.Which section of a newspaper does the text probably come from?A.Environment.B.Technology.C.Health.D.Travel.二、七选五16.Why do we feel sleepy in rainy days?This spring on the east coast of the US, it feels like we've lost touch with the sun. In Washington, DC, 14 of the first 17 days of May were rainy. ①_____ It means that for me, May has been one of the months I've felt the sleepiest. The dull weather can hit almost all of our senses in a way that gives a sign to us it is time for a sleep.First, there's what we see-or rather, what we don't. ②_____ When it's raining and skies are cloudy, we miss out our body's internal alarm clock. As Naomi, a scientist from Central Queensland University said, when you don't see the sunlight first thing in the morning, your body never gets the signal that it needs to shift into daytime mode.The earthy smell of rain can make you feel calm and comfortable. ③_____ And when it rains, the water brings out the oils and they mix with a chemical to create a "musky" smell. Additionally, after a thunderstorm there's a chance you may smell ozone (臭氧) , which is generated when lightning interacts with the air. Some compare its smell to that of clean bed sheets.④_____. The rhythmic pattern of rain hitting a roof, umbrella, or the ground below is called "pink noise". Pink noise is a category of background noise that has all of the frequencies that human can hear and has lower volumes at higher frequencies. According to some re-search, it may improve our quality of sleep by decreasing our brain activity. ⑤_____ The difficulty in waking up, the fresh, earthy scents, and the peace of the rain tapping on windows are enough to make anyone want to go back to bed for the day. Sadly, none of this evidence is enough to justify doing so; but it can at least explain why you may feel a little sleepy on these cloudy days.A. Rain sounds are also comforting.B. Plants produce oils during dry periods.C. The others have been cloudy and dull for at least part of the day.D. It makes it easier for us to wake up from our sleep the night before.E. You can listen to an hour of rain on a window, if you intend to test it out.F. Sunlight causes our bodies to stop producing what makes us sleepy at night.G. And you'll also smell that when you are in your garden turning over your soil.三、完形填空(15空)A sudden illness took away most of Rebecca's hearing when she was only six years old.to flourish (茁壮成长) .Today, working at the Qetan Sewing Center, Rebecca rediscovered something sheRebecca.on your future."The way that Rebecca lives her life demonstrates this idea that you can achieve your17.A.sadness B.happiness C.efforts D.pains18.A.stopped B.promised C.refused D.struggled19.A.pity B.change C.blame D.fool20.A.whether B.why C.how D.where21.A.Eventually B.Immediately C.Naturally D.Absolutely22.A.tolerated B.missed C.considered D.regretted23.A.positive B.similar C.limited D.plain24.A.different B.supportive C.clean D.safe25.A.satisfied with B.aware of C.interested in D.careful about26.A.desire B.secure C.understand D.adore27.A.task B.job C.journey D.business28.A.improve B.express C.defend D.reflect29.A.truth B.choices C.process D.possibilities30.A.capacity B.value C.action D.freedom31.A.in case of B.as long as C.in spite of D.as far as四、短文填空32.Working out helps you deal with stress in your job, relationships or any area of life.

A campgroundD.A popular stream.BAs I stood in line waiting to cash ou at my favorite store, I studied the customer in front of me. She was in her early twenties, but looked as if life had beaten her down many times. Everything about her spelled hardship.The items in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat,along with some inexpensive items. Carefully placed in a far corner sat a little doll, some animal stickers, and a 50%-off pretty dress.When it was her turn and the store employee finally calculated everything and told her the cost, her face paled. She opened her purse and began counting small bills and change. Obviously she didn't have enough. She removed much-needed goods while the cashier patiently put them away with a pleasant smile.The child's items remained in the cart, however. The man right behind me shouted loudly, and the young woman's cheeks reddened with embarrassment. I wanted to pay for her groceries, but I knew that would hut her.Instead, I turned around and said to the man in a low voice, "Be grateful you've never had to do that!" And then, as she tried to decide what other necessity she could return, I said, "Take your time. I'm in no hurry."The woman finally reduced her groceries, paid and moved down tobag them. When my turn came, I moved forward and placed several items with the pile of items the woman had taken out and whispered " Separate bags, same bill please.” The cashier nodded and quickly complied. Then she "accidentally" rolled several oranges hard enough so that they flew past the lady and onto the floor. As the woman kindly ran to pick up the runaway fruit, I quickly put the two extra bags into her cart, along with atwenty-dollar bill.That night, as I sat with my husband, my thoughts went to the Lady who I hoped was enjoying a hearty meal with her little girl,and I hoped silently that her life would take an easier turn soon.4.How did the woman in front impress the authorA.She was interested in spelling words.B.She had experienced hardship in life.C. She enjoyed buying things for her kids.D.She had just moved into the neighborhood.5. What did the cashier do to help the authorA.She attracted the lady's attention with some oranges.B.She packed some free fruit in a bag for the woman.C.She blamed the man who had shouted at the woman.D. She managed to get a job appointment for the woman.6.What does the underlined word “ complied” mean in paragraph 5A.RefusedB. ObeyedC.Advised.D.Paid.7.Which of the following best describes the authorA.Humorous.B.Strict.C. Honest.D.Considerate.CVideo games sometimes have a bad name because they keep people indoors playing them instead of talking and playing with others face to face. However, a new study says that they might be good for young people's brain development.Scientists from the University of Vermont used data from the ABCD project, which is a study of brain development and health of children in the US as they move into adulthood. The results ware taken from 2,217 children aged nine or ten. They were divided into two groups.The first group never play video games while the second group play them for three or more hours a day.The young people were set two tasks.The first one measured their reaction(反应) time by seeing how quickly they could press buttons that matched images on a screen. The second test tested their memory. They were show "pictures of people's faces and later were shown more and had to say if any of the faces were the same. During the tests,their brains were scanned with fMRI to measure brain activity.The people who played video-games were better at the two tasks,and the fMRI scans showed that they show more brain activity in memory and attention. However, researchers don't know if gaming improved their memory and reactions,or if they already had good memories and reactions and therefore enjoyed gaming.The scientists hope to carry on studying the same young people as they get older to track the effects of gaming.The team could also find out in future if particular types of video games affect people's brain activity differently.The lead scientist on the study, Bader, said that too much screen time isn't good for people's mental or physical health. Although playing video games may get the brain more active than just going through videos on YouTube,it's important to spend time outdoors in the fresh air,taking exercise and having fun with friends and family.8.What does the ABCD project doA. It deals with adult brain development.B. It studies the development of young brains.C.It explores the harm of video games on teens.D. H focuses on the importance of communication.9. How did the first group perform compared with the second oneA. They showed fewer problems in memory.B.They already had better memory ability.C. They showed better ability in attention.D. They showed more attention problems.10. What do the researchers hope to do with the same young peopleA.Track the effects of video games on them.B.Separate bad video games from good ones.C.Find ways to stop people from video games.D.Find a safe tine limit on playing the games.11. what can we infer from Bader's wordsA.The benefit of video games should be recognized.B. YouTube videos are less harmful than video games.C. There're many better things to do than video games.D.The young should be taught to stay off video games.DTanzanian government has set up a high-speed internet service on Mount Kilimanjaro,which was named a World Heritage site in 1987. The government says the service will promote safety for climbers and allow people to post selfies as they climb Africa's tallest mountain at 5,895 meters.The mountain, created by volcanoes and rising out of a large, open flat area, is part of Kilimanjaro National Park in the northeast of Tanzania. Around 50,000 people visit the park each year. Butclimbing such a tall mountain isn’t easy. Roughly one-third of the people who try to climb it are forced to give up. The new internet service should make it easier for climbers to reach the top. They can use the internet to check maps and find their way, or call for help if they need it.Currently, the new service reaches more than halfway up the mountain.The government says that by the end of the year, climbers will get internet even at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro.The government says safety is the main reason for setting up the internet service on the mountain. As Tanzania depends heavily on tourists, having people post pictures and videos on social media as they climb Mount Kilimanjaro could certainly make the spot even more popular with tourists.Some people in Tanzania are upset that the government is focusing on internet for tourists instead of the livelihood of people living in the country. One study in 2020 showed that only about 83% of the people living in Tanzania can get cell phone service where they live. It also bothered people who were worried that the project might affect the environment on the mountain. Scientists have already warned that the glaciers on top of Mount Kilimanjaro may melt in the next 10 years. So far, the cable car project doesn't seen to be making much progress.12. What can we know about Mount KilimanjaroA.It is formed by volcanoes.B. It's a hot place on social media.C. It tries to be a World Heritage site.D. It's tallest mountain in the world.13.What's the internet service meant to doA.To better protect the environment.B.To show the importance of the Net.C. To help its people connect better.D.To improve the safety of climbers.14. What has mad some people in Tanzania unhappy with the internet serviceA. Environmental concern.B.Livelihood of the citizens.C.The poor state of the country.D. International dissatisfaction.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the textA.Internet Service Benefits Natives and VisitorsB.Mount Kilimanjaro Becomes More AccessibleC. Opinions Differ With the Internet Access in KilimanjaroD.Safety Measures Free Visitors From Safety Concerns第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。

But one day, when he got home from school, everything had 2 . Hundreds of little turtles came from the inside of the screen as soon as he turned on the computer.

When his parents saw that all the turtles were staying in Albert's room, they told Albert to look after them.Looking after so many turtles was not 3 . Albert tried to get them out of his room, but it never worked. So he began to learn all he could about turtles. He studied their diet, their habits, and he began to think up ways to feed them. Gradually, he began to enjoy it. And everyone around him enjoyed hearing his stories and his growing knowledge about nature.Finally, the day arrived when Albert 4 about the computer he loved very much. He now much preferred living with his turtles. He felt happy that they were part of his world.However, the turtles disappeared that same day. His parents worried that he would 5 to his computer games, but that didn't happen. Instead, he took all his pocket money and ran to the pet shop.

She asked her mom if they could ever go to Hawaii for their family vacation. "I don't know,"said her mom. "The trip would cost a lot of money. Maybe some day we'll get there."laughed mom. Annie was thinking she could start saving her birthday, Christmas and pocket money for the trip. "That will take forever," she thought to herself.Annie went to school the next day. She went to the library to find some more books about Hawaii. She found a travel magazine that had an entry form(报名表)to fill out to win a prize. Annie was so excited about the chance to win a trip to Hawaii.The trip was for one week and included two other people that could also go on the trip.That night, Annie filled out all the information on the entry form and put it in the mailbox. A few weeks went by, and Annie's mom got a call from the travel company (公司), Leisure Time. They told her that Annie won the trip to Hawaii. "WOW!"cried Annie as her mom told her about the trip to Hawaii she had won. "I just can't believe they pulled my entry form out of all the people that entered, said Annie. "Well, you are finally going to make your dream of going to Hawaii come true," said Annie's mom.

But in some states, officials kids need more time to learn.More class time can improve test scores, according to a report by the Education Sector. As a result, schools are tying to add an hour or more to the school day.Primary and middle school students at Fletcher-Maynard Academy in Cambridge, Massachusetts have started an eight-hour school day. Fletcher-Maynard Academy is just one of the 10 schools in Massachusetts trying out the new schedule. Officials in Minnesola, New Mexico, New York, and Washington D.C. are also arguing about the longer school hours.People who like the idea of longer school days say kids need to learn more to stay competitive(有竞争力的)in today's world. Fletcher-Maynard's headmaster Robin Harris likes having the extra hours. "Teachers can also be a little more creative," she told WR News.Students aren't just spending the extra time with their heads in a book, though.Harris explains that her students get longer recesses. It means that they have more time to relax between classes. Parent Dawn Oliver happily says her 11-year-old daughter, Brittany, is a member of her school magazine in Fall River, Massachusetts."The kids take part in these things more because it's not all kook work," says Oliver.However, other people have different ideas, and they argue that longer school days could be too long for today's busy kid. And extra time might stop students from developing other interests. Some students have complained about having to stay later.They worry that they would be too tired on the last classes of the day.What's more, they point out that longer school day get in the way of after-school sports and clubs. "The day is long enough already," students Cameron Villers from Ansonia, Connecticut told WR News. "After-school activities would be affected (影响). Nobody wants to be at school from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. if schools have different schedules, planning sports games would be difficult.”(1)A report by the Education Sector has found that .• A.students have more time to play at school• B.students get longer break and more free time• C.longer class time makes the students more creative• D.more class time can improve student's test scores(2)The underlined word recesses in paragraph 5 probably means .• A.time to rest• B.time for homework4• C.time to study• D.time for tests(3)What is the text mainly about?• A.some ways to get better grades.• B.Growing worries about student's health• C.different opinions on longer school days.• D.Special needs to get more school activities.还原句子It was a long week for Amanda at school.

There are many misleading(误导人的)acts about the power of the human brain.Do you know every day we use 100% of our brain? Some think that no one uses 100% of their brain. But in fact we all use it completely. Every part connected with5some part of your body, and while we are still alive, we use all the parts. So our brain is fully used. But one thing we can say is that we do not use the full potential(潜能)of our brain. The human brain has more potential. For example, there is nothing in the world you cannot learn, but some give up just because they think they cannot do it. In fact, every brain is strong to learn and understand. You need to develop that untouched potential of your brain and give some more time to that work.There are also some interesting facts you didn’t know about human brain.● Our brain can't do many things at the same tim e. Neurons(神经细胞)in our brain work so quickly that we feel we're doing more than one task, but actually we are not.● Our brain does more creative work when we're tired.● Seeing positive in others shows our positive traits, and seeing negative in others shows our negative traits.● Being with happy people makes us happier.● Happiness, anger, sadness, fear, disgust, and surprise are the six feelings that people all over the word show.● We are happier when we are kept busy, as this stops us from thinking a bout the negative things in life.Our brain makes us different from other animals and enables humans to progress and grow. Just put your potential to full use and achieve the unbelievable.(1)Do we use 100% of our brain every day?(2)Why do some people give up learning a new thing?(3)When is the brain more creative?(4)What are the six feelings people all over the world show?(5)What is the main idea of this passage?完成句子(1)提示词语:shop, next Sunday(2)提示词语:Jim, often, help, mother, housework(3)提示词语:run, fast, than6(4)提示词语:the children, have a party, last month(5)提示词语:she, nurse, when, grow up书面表达题目一:假如你是李华,春节快到了,你们年级的外教Jim将第一次在中国过年。
山东省德州市2022-2023学年高一上学期期末考试英语试卷(含答案)
山东省德州市2022-2023学年高一上学期期末考试英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________ 一、阅读理解Paris has a fantastic collection of cafes, whether you need a cozy spot or a cup of coffee. Here are some of the best places I discovered when I was sent to the branch in Paris to cover an event.Groundstate CaféSitting in the heart of the city, Groundstate Cafe is always recommended by news reporters. You can easily enjoy a carefree day with a book and a cup of coffee. Groundstate is a popular spot for artists because of the ancient paintings collected by the shop owner. The waiters are always ready to help you.Le ProcopeLocated on a downtown street, Le Procope is famous for its enthusiastic service and delicious snacks. Office workers always chat with their friends and have fun with their colleagues. You can enjoy the fresh air and sunshine because they only have seats outdoors. As a result, the owner only runs the shop during the warm seasons.Coutume CaféSituated in the city centre, Coutume Cafe is popular among businessmen to meet their clients. The cafe promotes a life of luxury with fantastic decoration and comfortable chairs. Waiters who are highly educated and elegant can help visitors choose the right type of coffee. MotorsThis recently-opened coffee shop is located in the countryside. They sell delicious local desserts. The waitresses there are helpful and friendly. Some of them are college students who take part-time jobs during weekends. It is also a perfect shopping market for people to buy some coffee products and taste some local delicacies. I am sure that I will bring some products to my colleagues when I return.1、Which place appeals to art lovers?A. Groundstate Cafe.B.Le Procope.C. Coutume Cafe.D.Motors.2、What do Le Procope and Motors have in common?A. They have a long history.B. They are located downtown.C. They both offer nice snacks.D.

The bird is called “Little Cardinal” by the locals and appears on the money of Venezuela, on products and even in school books. But recently, the small song birds are disappearing from the wild.Once flourishing in the millions, as few as 300 remain in the wild in Venezuela. The male siskin is valued for its red feathers and black head. Hunters, even the local farmers, often catch and sell the birds for money. Protection under Venezuelan law has not stopped hunters from catching the birds to sell on an illegal international market. Meanwhile, more and more forests are being cut down to plant cash crops.That threat has brought attention from an international team. The team includes scientists from the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D. C. and coffee farmers in Venezuela's mountains. They hope to save the bird with the help of the farmers. An effective plan has been made to have farmers plant organic coffee plants. Such coffee plants are covered with branches which make good nesting places for the birds.Planting organic coffee crops with branches stops farmers from increasing production by thinning their coffee crops to let more sun onto their fields. Farmers wh o meet the project’s rules will win the right to sell their beans with “Bird Friendly” labels. They will be able to set prices for such “high quality” products that can be five times higher than legal prices set by the government.At the same time, a red siskin breeding center is being built at a private zoo in Venezuela where 200 birds are expected to be born next year. This number will be added to the 25 siskins at the Smithsonian Institution. Red siskins from the center will be placed in the coffee forests. These efforts could prevent the birds from disappearing.There are reports of early success. About 40 farmers in the mountains of Carayaca, northwest of the capital Caracas, have stopped cutting down trees, a move that will help the siskin to get away from the dangerous situation.4、What do we know about the siskin from paragraph 1?A. Its benefits for local education.B. Its wide popularity in the past.C. Its beautiful gesture on branches.D. Its great value for the environment.5、What caused the decl ine in the bird’s number?A. Lack of laws from the government.B. Illegal trade for making high profits.C. Being hunted for the delicious meat.D. Planting cash crops for enough food.6、Why does the team have farmers plant organic coffee plants?A. To let more sun onto the farmers’ fields.B. To improve the quality of the cash crops.C. To offer branches to the breeding center.D. To create enough nesting places for the bird.7、What is the text mainly about?A. The value of the endangered red siskin.B. The reasons for the red siskin's disappearing.C. The profits the farmers get from coffee plants.D. The efforts the team made to save the red siskin.Is it likely that a person who originally has no language ability is cheerfully discussing the World Cup with you? The answer is yes.In a paper published in Nature Communications on November 8, 2022, researchers have successfully changed the brain waves of an aphasic (失语症) paralyzed person into sentences, which are displayed on the computer screen and can “say” thousands of words, as is intended.This participant is 30 years old. A decade ago he was aphasic due to stroke, his arms and legs unable to move. He depended on a pole pinned on the baseball cap to click the letters on the screen to communicate with people. It's quite inconvenient.Last year researchers from the University of California used the latest technology to implant (植入) a device into the speech motor area of his brain and connect it with a neural (神经的) instrument to monitor brain wave patterns when he expressed different words. They used computer programs to build a language model with a vocabulary of 50 words for him. When he used these words to “speak” in his mind, his brain wave movement was turned into complete sentences and shown on the screen. For months the team recorded his neural activity when he “spoke”, used AI to identify various patterns and linked them to the words. Once a researcher asked on the screen, “Do you want some water?” And he answered, “No. I'm not thirsty.”“The spellin g speed of the device reaches 29.4 characters per minute. The character error rate is only 6.13%. The offline test results show it can be expanded to a large vocabularycontaining 9000 words, maintaining a low character error rate-8.23%,” said Sean Metzger, the lead author of the paper. “Aphasic people like to use this device as it makes communication convenient. Anything is possible.”More aphasic people are needed to participate in the test, which is still a long way from promotion. Experts warn although the study results are impressive, electrode implantation is risky.8、What is the purpose of the research?A. To assist aphasic patients to talk.B. To better people's communication.C. To cure those incapable of speaking.D. To improve patients' language skills.9、What does paragraph 4 focus on?A. The practical application of the findings.B. A disadvantage of the language model.C. The working process of the implanted device.D. A supporting evidence for the research results.10、What can be inferred from Sean Metzger's words?A. The device may have a promising futureB. The device can do anything for aphasic group.C. Further research will centre on avoiding errors.D. Further research will face many new challenges.11、Which word best describes the author's attitude to the device?A. Doubtful.B. Positive.C. Indifferent.D. Objective.There’s bad news for parents who frequently leave their kids in front of the TV: It might actually end up leaving moms and dads more stressed. The findings come from a University of Arizona-led study, which explores the potential effects of children’s television watching habits on their parents’ stress levels.The logic behind this is clear. The more television kids watch, the more they’re exposed (接触) to advertising, which often features bright colors, upbeat music and flashy characters and can be especially persuasive, since, developmentally, children aren’t fully capable of understanding advertising’s intention. “The more advertisements they see, the more likely they are to insist on purchasing items when going with their parents and perhaps make a fuss if told ‘no’. All that may increase parents’ overall stress well beyond a single shopping trip,”said lead study author Matthew Lapierre.There are a few things parents can do, perhaps the most obvious of which is limiting screen time. “Commercial content is there for a reason: to elicit purchasing behavior. So, if this is a problem, maybe shut off the TV,” Lapierre said. Of course, that can be easier said than done, he admitted.Another thing parents can try, especially as advertising targeting children rockets around the holidays: Consider how they talk to their kids about consumerism. At this time, effective parent-child consumer-related communication can work well.Overall, communication between parents and children is a better strategy for reducing stress in parents. However, the research found, this communicative strategy shows dropping returns when children ask for more products or have more consumer conflict with parents.With the rise of streaming services, however, many viewers are no longer being exposed to the traditional advertising of network or cable TV. Advertisers are finding creative ways around that, for example, through product placement and integrated (综合的) branding in a show, Lapierre said. And advertising toward children remains a multibillion-dollar industry.“In general, more television exposure means more exposure to advertisements. Even if I’m streaming, I’m likely seeing more integrated branding,” Lapierre said, “such hidden advertising is harder to detect and has a greater influence on children’s consuming habits, leaving parents more stressed.12、What does Matthew Lapierre attempt to explore in the study?A. The influence the bad news on TV has on parents.B. Children's ability to understand TV commercials.C. The stress the kids’ watching TV brings to parents.D. Strategies to stop kids watching TV advertisements.13、What does the underlined word “elicit” mean in paragraph 3?A. Cause.B. Challenge.C. Practise.D. Guarantee.14、How does Lapierre consider the placement advertising in streaming services?A. A simple and better means of advertising a productB. A hidden way to promote products or brands to kidsC. An easy way to avoid conflicts between kids and parents.D. An effective approach to keeping kids from TV commercials.15、Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. People should keep off the influence of TV adsB. Advertisers make commercial contents appealingC. TV commercials can educate the kids unknowinglyD. Kids’ exposure to TV makes parents more stressed二、七选五16、Bread Baking in Ancient EgyptDid you know that bread is one of the earliest human inventions?①_______ Other ingredients (原料)and shapes can vary- Scientists have learned that humans have been eating bread in some form or another for 30, 000 years.Archaeologists (考古学家)have discovered pictures of bakeries and loaves of bread in ancient Egyptian archaeological sites. ②_______ Home-bakers, usually women, baked only the bread they would need for that day.In fact, because they had no potatoes or rice, bread was the most important in the ancient Egyptians’ diet.

Back in my days as a salesman, I was on my way to deliver a speech in Newfoundland. Sitting comfortably in the airplane seat, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat as I realized I had left my dress shoes at home. I was wearing running shoes for an important speech. I knew I could buy a new pair when I landed.Too late; the stores were already closed. What about in the morning? No, the next day was Sunday and my speech was scheduled for 9:00 a.m. Ninety seconds later, however, my cold sweat has been replaced with a single idea. The next morning, I began my speech, “You might be wondering why I am wearing running shoes today. Well, it’s about this request here. When I’m done speaking, I’ll be running door to door and I want every one of you to come running with me, too.” My little “goof-up” became a clever demonstration(示范) of action speaking louder than words. My shoe lesson number two. My brother was getting married. We had just witnessed the signing of the papers at their house, and they were rushing over to another place for the ceremony. As we locked up their house, my wife’s shoes broke. So off to the nearest shoe store we flew. We knew they would wait for us before starting the ceremony. What we did not know was how long they would wait. That day, my wife performed a miracle(奇迹)that no other woman had done before or since. She went into the store and came out just five minutes later with the perfect pair of shoes. Perhaps the most important lesson here is that, contrary/opposite to popular belief, the shoe does not make the man/woman. But the lack(缺乏) of shoes can surely build character. 24.

What’s the message the authorshows in the text?_________ A. Emergencies(紧急情况) can help shape our character. B. You can never judge (判断) a person by his looks. C. It’s hard to change our character overnight. D. Never buy shoes without trying them on first. C We know the famous ones―the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells ―but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)?Shouldn’t we know who they are? Joan Mclean thinks so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she’s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”, however, Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and “how” questions. According to Mclean, “When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.” Her students agree. One young man with a patent(专利) for an unbreakable umbrella is a walking proof of Mclean’s statement. “If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’s invention,” said Tommy Lee, a senior physics major,” “I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so constructive/useful.” Lee is currently conside ring to sell his patent to an umbrella producer. So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldn’t be a built-in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this whenshe returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper. Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations. It’s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A. Morgan’s traffic light. It’s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgett’s innovation that makes glass invisible. Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses? 28. By mentioning/referring to “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”, the author indicates/shows that countless inventions are . A. bene ficial/helpful, because their inventors are famous B. beneficial, though their inventors are less famous C. not useful, because their inventors are less famous D. not useful, though their inventors are famous 29. Professor Joan McLean’s course aims to_____. A. add color and variety to students’ campus life B. inform students of the windshield wiper’s invention C. c arry out the requirements by Mountain University D. prepare students to try their own inventions 30. T ommy Lee’s invention of the unbreakable umbrella was_________. A. not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer B. inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper C. due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm D. not related to Professor Joan McLean’s lectures 31. Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage? A. How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers? B. How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window? C. Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper? D. Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities? D The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples. First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presentsits own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float(漂浮) free in zero gravity(重力), often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled (芭蕾)dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.” On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal(骑车)v iolently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents/citizens have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon-dioxide you breathe in has a tendency to form an invisible (隐形的)cloud around your head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache. Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat. “Your inner ear thinks you’re falling. At the same time your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying―that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days ―truly terrible days for some ---- astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the p anicky and nervous signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears. Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital/important that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts healthy. NASA is worried about two things: recovery time once astronautsreturn home, and, more importantly, how to maintain/keep strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars. 32. What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space? A. Deciding on a proper sleep position. B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag. C. Seeking/Looking for a way to fall asleep quickly. D. Finding a right time to go to sleep. 33. The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____. A. they circle around on their bikes B. they use microcomputers without a stop C. they exercise in one place for a long time D. they watch a movie while pedaling 34. Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _____. A. their senses stop working B. they have to stand up straight C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly D. Their brains receive opposite messages 35. One of the NASA’s major concerns/worries about astronauts is _____. A. how much exercise they do on the station B. how they can remain healthy for long in space C. whether they can recover after returning home D. whether they are able to go back to the station第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
