ADo you enjoy reading poems? Rabindranath Tagore (泰戈尔) was an Indian writer and poet, who was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. Composed of 326 short verses, Stray Birds (飞鸟集) is a collection of short verses translated from Bengali into English by the poet himself, where Tagore spiritualizes nature into the experiences of human existence while demonstrating his love for nature and simplicity through poetic words.Now read the following verses taken from Stray Birds (1916) and try to answer the questions.•Man does not reveal himself in his history, he struggl es up through it. (verse 52)•The cloud stood humbly (谦逊的) in a corner of the sky.The morning crowned it with splendor (光辉). (verse 100)•Man is worse than an animal when he is an animal. (verse 248)•Bees sip honey from flowers and hum their thanks when they leave.The gaudy butterfly is sure that the flowers owe thanks to him. (verse 127)•The stream of truth flows through its channels of mistakes. (verse 243)•Let him only see the thorns who has eyes to see the rose. (verse 230)•Set bird’s wings with gold and it will never again soar in the sky. (ver se 231)•Men are cruel, but Man is kind. (verse 219)•Let me not put myself wrongly to my world and set it against me. (verse 206)•Wrong cannot afford defeat but right can. (verse 68)•“I give my whole water in joy,” sings the waterfall. “though little of it is enough for the thirsty.” (verse 69)•The woodcutter’s axe(斧头) begged for its handle from the tree.The tree gave it. (verse 71)•Thank the flame for its light, but do not forget the lampholder standing in the shade with constancy of patience. (verse 64)1. Which of the verses sing praise for those who are ready to sacrifice (奉献) themselves without asking anything in return?A. verse 248 &69B. verse 71 & 100C. verse 69 & 71D. verse 100& 522. Which of the verse makes strong comparison and contrast between two opposite types of persons?A. verse 68B. verse 248C. verse 127D. verse 2433. Which of the verses might be most suitable said to parents, telling them not to spoil their children with wealth?A. verse 231B. verse 71C. verse 127D. verse 100BWhen it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮）me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell….”We have never met.It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist（心理学家），who will only fill up the healing（愈合的）silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.4. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ______.A. become serious about her studyB. go to her friend’s house regularlyC. learn from her classmates at schoolD. share poems and stories with her friend5. In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means ______.A. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of usB. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from LondonC. our unpleasant feeling about London disappearedD. we parted with each other in London6. According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend _______.A. call each other regularlyB. have similar personalitiesC. enjoy writing to each otherD. dream of meeting each other7. What is the best title for the passage?A. Unforgettable ExperiencesB. Remarkable ImaginationC. Lifelong FriendshipD. Noble CompanionsCThe new year has begun and some people may be looking to 2015 as the year they get a dog. A furry friend will bring a lot of fun and companionship to your family —especially for urban residents who always feel lonely living in the fast-paced society. But looking after a pet does require some responsibility from the pet owner if you want your new friend to be healthy and happy in your family.The following is a checklist for people who are considering adopting an animal.Where to find a dogThere are hundreds of pet shops in Shanghai, big and small, where you can find puppies at a cost ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands of yuan. The pet shop will tell you some basic facts about dogs of a specific breed. But don't forget to ask about the vaccination status if you are buying a puppy, which needs three injections with an interval of three to four weeks between shots.Another option is to ask your friends if they know anyone with a dog that has recently had puppies. This option is more reliable than buying a puppy from someone you don’t know, especially the street peddlers who might carry animals with diseases.Another highly recommended option is to adopt one from an NGO dedicated to providing shelter and protecting stray animals. This is quite practical if you don't care about the dog's breed. Vaccination (疫苗)As a pet owner, there are some things you must do otherwise you may get into big trouble, and one of these is getting your dog vaccinated.Dogs need regular shots to fight against canine parvovirus (犬细小病毒), rabies and other diseases or viruses.To ensure the vaccines are not substandard, we strongly recommend you get your furry friend a shot from a qualified vet, which may cost a few hundred yuan each year.Another advantage of using the vet as opposed to getting your dog vaccinated yourself, is that the vet will examine its condition to see whether it is suitable to get a shot now and take immediate action if it has an allergic reaction to the vaccine.Because you are advised not to give your animal a bath for one week following its vaccination, you should clean your animal one or two days before the shot if you don’t want your dog to get too dirty.Parasite (寄生虫) protectionAs a pet owner, you need to be prepared to get rid of fleas (跳蚤), heartworm (犬心虫), roundworm (蛔虫）, intestinal worms and other parasites from your dog.Dogs need regular flea and tick control and parasite protection, even if it does not showsymptoms of being affected by the parasite. An adult dog needs to be fed with a tablet every six months to make sure it does not have any parasite.You also need to take measures every three months to help expel fleas and ticks from your animal. You need to learn the signs of a flea bite: they may immediately cause a dog to feel extremely itchy. Within 30 minutes of a bite, they may develop a red bump. Secondary infections caused by scratching are also common.Dog trainingNo dog is born with good manners. Pooping on the carpet, leaping enthusiastically onto guests, pulling so hard that it practically yanks your arm out of the socket when on walks —that’s all perfectly acceptable in the canine world. It's up to you to teach your dog to behave the way humans want it to.Despite the adage（谚语；格言）about old dogs and new tricks, there are no age limits to teaching dogs. And whether you've got a brand-new puppy or an older dog, the first step is the same: learn how to be a good teacher.Every dog is different and will respond better to a slightly different training style, but these general guidelines apply: stay consistent and patient, and reward your dog for getting it right.8. The underlined word “vet” means____________.A. a surgeonB. a physicianC. a dentistD. a doctor who treats animals9. According to the article, how many aspects should a pet owner pay attention to?A. TwoB. ThreeC. FourD. Five10. Which of the following sentences is FALSE?A.A dog can bring much fun and companionship to your family —especially for urban residents who always feel lonely living in the fast-paced society.B. As a pet owner, it is unnecessary for you to be prepared to get rid of fleas.C. It's up to you to teach your dog to behave the way humans want it to.D. After getting a dog, the first step for its owner is to be a good teacher.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并将答案涂在答题卡上。

2023届山西省三晋名校联盟高中毕业班4月阶段性测试（五）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The world is a splendid place, full of hidden and overt beauty in every corner. Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife. The grassland and acacia-dotted landscapes ofits national reserve are home to the endangered giraffe and zebra, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, ChinaChina’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan Province is known for its towering sandstone pillars (柱子). Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall,it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason. Best of all, there are plenty of beaches to go around, with over 100 private resorts and welcoming, affordable guesthouses around the Male and Ari atolls.1．What makes Samburu a haven for wildlife?A．Its landscape.B．Its location.C．Its climate.D．Its food.2．What do Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park have in common?A．They are home to gorillas.B．They have more than 350 bird species.C．They are on the World Heritage Site List.D．They are inspirations for traditional paintings.3．Which of the following suits beach-lovers?A．Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.B．Samburu.C．Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.D．The Maldives.Students at Summit Elementary in Butler, Pennsylvania, are growing more than their minds. Under the guidance of longtime teacher Angela Eyth, they’ve created a generous garden to benefit people in need at nearby Broad Street Elementary, whose neighborhood lacks fresh-produce options.The project is now two years old, and goes beyond planting and growing: Eyth and her fellow educators structure lessons in science, math and more around their garden. “The kids are in charge of everything,” Eyth says. “They’re so proud of what we’re doing here.”“When we grew cabbage my students noticed something was eating the leaves, ” Eyth recalls. “This led to an investigation into what was eating them and how to stop it: the kids analyzed the evidence they found and acted as engineers in creating various ways to keep pests(害虫) out of the cabbage beds.”She continues, “People think gardening should be separate from core subjects but it’s far from the truth. The kids’ curiosity keeps it rolling.”The kids also keep the produce rolling—so much so that with a $70,000 grant from Remake Learning/Grable Foundation, they’re building a farm stand at Broad Street Elementary that will ultimately bring fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs and more to an area of their community considered a food desert. People will be able to go there and gain the benefits of the harvest.This year’s crop included peas, beans, carrots, turnips, squash and pumpkins; plans are in place to keep expanding in the years ahead with items like Christmas trees, a sunflower patch and a pollinator garden. “It’s amazing that you start with a small idea and it can grow,” Eyth says.4．What can we know about the community near Broad Street Elementary?A．It focuses on students’ growth.B．It invites Eyth to create a garden. C．Its fresh-produce variety is limited.D．It relies on students for fresh produce. 5．How do Eyth and her colleagues help the students?A．By arranging subjects around the garden.B．By analyzing the structure of subjects. C．By deciding what to plant in the garden.D．By providing them with job opportunities.6．Why did the students conduct an investigation?A．To experience the work of engineers.B．To make the evidence more convincing. C．To find ways to plant vegetables well.D．To figure out what fed on cabbage leaves.7．Which can best describe the students at Summit Elementary in Butler?A．Energetic and healthy.B．Creative and responsible.C．Patient and strong-willed.D．Cautious and talented.A new device known as Shark Guard is being trialed which gives off a pulse to protect sharks and rays from fishing hooks (鱼钩). The data so far suggests that it has been very effective in reducing the number of sharks and stingrays caught by commercial fishing equipment.Commercial fishing is known to threaten sharks and rays worldwide. Research has found that 24 per cent of the average monthly space used by sharks around the world falls under the-footprint of distant long line fisheries. This is when hooks hang near the surface to catch fish like tuna and swordfish. A quarter of shark habitats are within active fishing zones.It is estimated that over 20,000,000 sharks are caught as bycatch every year. Stingrays are also frequently caught as bycatch. “Bycatch” refers to unwanted fish and marine creatures caught by commercial fishing equipment, and is typically discarded (丢弃) overboard either dead or dying.Shark Guard was designed by marine scientists to protect sharks and rays from fishing equipment. It is a small battery-powered device that can be fastened on the line next to a baited hook and gives off a short pulse every two seconds.Study found that the device reduced the number of blue sharks caught in a French long line tuna fishery in the Mediterranean by 91 per cent, and stingrays by 71 per cent. These arepromising numbers, although Dr. Phil Doherty, lead author of the study, said that Shark Guard should “be designed on a case-by-case basis to ensure it’s fit for purpose.”8．What is the new device used to do?A．Stop sharks being caught.B．Reduce the number of sharks. C．Confirm a scientific guess.D．Prevent commercial hunting.9．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A．The places fishing hooks hang.B．The range of commercial fishing. C．The benefits of protecting sharks.D．The harm of commercial fishing. 10．What does Phil Doherty think of the device?A．It is promising.B．It is ineffective.C．It needs improving.D．It is perfectly designed.11．What is the text?A．A diary entry.B．A news report.C．A fantasy story.D．A book review.Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. Scientists found in studies of mice that a high-salt diet increased the levels of a stress hormone by 75 per cent. Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food.The recommended salt intake for adults is less than six grams a day but most people regularly eat about nine grams. This can contribute to higher blood pressure, which increases the risks of heart attacks, strokes and dementia.While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. To study this, experts from the University of Edinburgh used mice, who ordinarily have a low-salt diet, and gave them high-salt food to reflect the typical intake of humans.They found that not only did resting stress hormone levels increase, but the mice’s hormone response to environmental stress was double that of mice that had a normal diet. Salt intake increased the activity of genes that produce the proteins in the brain which control how the body responds to stress.Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leadsto other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. Matthew Bailey, professor of Renal Physiology at the University of Edinburgh’s Centre for Cardiovascular Science, said: “We are what we eat and understanding how high-salt food changes our mental health is an important step to improving wellbeing. We know that eating too much salt damages our heart, blood vessels(血管) and kidneys. This study now tells us that high salt in our food also changes the way our brain handles stress.”12．What are the findings expected to bring about eventually?A．Manufacturers adding less salt to processed food.B．People debating the policy on public health.C．Decreased levels of stress hormones.D．Reduced amount of processed food.13．What does the underlined word “ascertained” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Ignored.B．Restored.C．Reduced.D．Confirmed.14．Which of the following may be a subject of further research?A．What policy on salt should be.B．How a high-salt intake affects blood pressure.C．How much salt intake is appropriate.D．Whether a high-salt intake causes anxiety.15．What may be a suitable little for the text?A．Most people regularly take in too much salt.B．Mental health is important to improving well being.C．Diet containing much salt increases levels of stress.D．Less than six grams of salt a day is recommended.二、七选五Science tells us that global warming is a serious issue and we’re seeing its effects all around us—extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and endangered plant and animal species going extinct on a daily basis.____16____Here are some ways you can help with inducing global warming.Use less water.It takes a lot of energy to pump, heat, and treat your water.____17____You can make changes like taking shorter showers, turning off the tap when you’re brushing your teeth,and switching to water-deficient fixtures to reduce the amount of water you use.

阶段性测试(五)高二英语
荥阳高中2017-1018学年上学期实验班阶段性测试（五）高二英语一．阅读理解。
（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AAfter a year of examining studies concerning whether homework is effective, NYC P.S. 116 elementary school decided that math worksheets and essay assignments were actually a waste of time. In February, Principal Jane Hsu sent a letter to parents stating that the Pre-K through fifth grade students would not be given any traditional homework to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy."The negative effects of homework have been well established," Hsu wrote in a notefrustration and exhaustion, lack of time for other to parents. "They include: children’sactivities and family time and, sadly for many, loss of interest in learning."Some parents, however, disagree with the policy change, believing that a lack of focus will cause children to fall behind. Homework has been part of education from the beginning, and has increased in volume in recent years.Hsu’s advice that children should read and s pend time with their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of P.S. 116. This group feels that homework assignments give children a goal to work toward. Others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that they have begun giving their own homework assignments to their children.An Australian Childhood Foundation survey found that 71% of Australian parents feel they do not spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework. Education experts in Australia are saying that parents should stop helping. Doing so will give kids more independence, will give parents more free time, and will help reduce the number of homework-induced arguments in the family.While some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students, other research shows homework can help kids develop independence, and confidence. It can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives. When parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also drain already exhausted working parents.1．Cancelling traditional homework is aimed at .A. allowing students to learn on their ownB. inspiring students to spend more time with parentsC. wishing students to seek self-developmentD. motivating students to help with housework2．What can be concluded from the 1st and 2nd paragraph?A. Jane Hsu is the first principal to cancel homework.B. Jane Hsu has done thorough research on homework.C. Jane Hsu paid little attention to students’ academic records.D. Jane Hsu knows students prefer activities to their subjects.3．Why are some parents strongly against Principal Jane Hsu?A. They have no time to give their children homework.B. They don’t think the school is responsible for their kids.C. They are afraid their kids will fall behind.D. They dislike their kids doing too many activities.4．What is the author’s attitude to parents’ helping kids with homework?A. Supportive.B. Indifferent.C. Ironic.D. Negative.BHere are our suggestions for keeping busy this week. Dive in!Take to the waves in SouthamptonAlways fancied trying your hand at sailing? Now’s y our chance.

When her daughter started crying even before take-off, herfears for the flight ― to surprise her husband, a US Army soldier at Fort Rucker,Alabama ― seemed acceptable.The couple seated next to her reacted just as Rebekka Garvison had feared, lookingvisibly unhappy about sitting next to a fussy (难以取悦的) baby. Ms. Garvison moved to anew seat, hoping it would help. When the baby’s cries continued, the woman sitting next to her asked if she could try.Garvison later described in a grateful Facebook post how the woman, Nyfesha Miller,had the magic touch with her baby. "As soon as she had her, Rylee was looking out thewindow and stopped crying," Garvison recalled. "When we got in the air she fell rightasleep and slept in her lap the whole flight until we got to our gate." Garvison told TheHuffington Post she has been in touch with Ms. Miller almost daily since the flight.post has been shared more than 84,000 times, and received hundreds of Garvison’swarm comments. "Years ago, the same kind of thing happened to me," wrote one mother."It was a seven-hour flight and I had my ten-month-old little boy with me. A nun (修女)was sitting beside me and she walked him up and down the passage when he got fussy. Itwas such a relief for me and is something I will never forget."Not everyone has had happy experiences with baby air travelers. One airline is considering opening a "baby class" for airplanes with flight attendant nannies (保姆),reported The C hristian Science Monitor’s Meredith Hamilton. For now, parents can hope tobe seated beside someone like Ms. Miller on their next flight. "Nyfesha Miller, you willnever understand how happy this act of kindness has made my family," wrote Garvison.8．Why did Garvison move to a new seat?A. She could have a better view.B. Her baby wanted to change seats.C. To turn to Nyfesha Miller for help.D. Her crying baby annoyed the couple beside her.9．Which words can be used to describe Miller?A. Generous and calm.B. Modest and elegant.C. Caring and friendly.D. Skilled and proud.10．Why did the author use another example?A. To express how common the problem is.B. To call on more strangers to act.C. To prove Garvison’s story popular.D. To share experiences with new moms.11．What is the text mainly about?A. An airline training mothers with babies.B. A kind stranger helping comfort a crying baby.C. A mom not knowing how to deal with a crying baby.D. Moms benefiting from traveling experiences shared online.DNine out of ten people on the planet breathe polluted air, even indoors, the World Health Organization (WHO) said. Some 92% of the population live in places where air pollution exceeds (超过) WHO limits.Air pollution can contribute to lung cancer and heart disease. The Southeast Asia and Western Pacific regions account for nearly two out of every three such deaths, with poorer countries "getting worse". Around three million deaths every year are linked to outdoor air pollution. When "indoor" air pollutio n ― which includes contaminants like wood smokeand cooking fires ― is added, air pollution is linked to one in every nine deaths worldwide, the WHO said. The air quality model used in the data measures the smallest particles (颗粒), less than 2.5 micrometres across, which can enter the bloodstream and reach the brain.Country-by-country data showed that Turkmenistan is ranked first for the death rate connected to air pollution. Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Egypt rounded out thetop five. "Rich countries are getting much better in improving the quality of the air," DrCarlos Dora from the WHO told the Associated Press. "Poorer countries are getting worse." However, he said, North America is doing better than Europe, mostly becauseEurope depends more on diesel fuel(柴油)and farming practices. China, the country withthe sixth-highest death rate linked to air pollution, is relatively wealthy, but is bothered bysmog in its cities and polluted air from industrial sources.The WHO pointed to sustainable transport, waste management, and renewableenergies as possible ways to reduce air pollution. It said its latest data represented the mostdetailed study it has ever released. The analysis combined satellite measurement and morethan 3,000 monitoring stations on the ground with air transport models. The report is basedon 2012 figures, which are the most recent data available.12．How is the text organized?A. Conclusions-Consequences-Examples-Solutions.B. Facts-Reasons-Examples-Solutions.C.

He was found over 200 kilometers away across sea ice.Mandy Iwworrigan lives on St. Lawrence Island in the Bering Strait in the western part of Alaska. The Bering Strait is the icy waterway that separates the United States and Russia.Nanuq disappeared in March when Iwworrigan and her family went to see her uncle and aunt on another part of St. Lawrence Island. She believed Nanuq and another dog ran out onto the ice looking for food. The other dog, Starlight, stayed away for weeks but c ame home. Nanuq didn’t come back.About one month later, Iwworrigan said people in the town of Wales began posting photos of a dog they’ d found on social media. Her father showed her the photos and said the dog in the photos looked like Nanuq. Iwworrigan looked at the photos and yelled: “That’s our dog. What’s he doing in Wales?”If you look at a map, you can see that the town of Wales and St. Lawrence Island are separated by a lot of water. But in the winter, most of it freezes. This might have permitted Nanuqto cover 241 kilometers either floating or running on the ice. But no one will ever know everything about Nanuq’s story or how he survived for so long.“I have no idea how he ended up in Wales,” the owner said. “Maybe the ice shifted while he washu nting.” Iwworrigan said the dog probably ate the remains of other animals such as a seal or caught and ate a seal. “He’s smart,” she said.Nanuq came home to his family on an airplane last week and Iwworrigan’s daughter, Brooklyn, yelled with happiness when she saw him. The dog had been bitten by another animal but was in good shape after his long time away from home.4. When did Nanuq run out of sight?A．When he was enjoying himself alone on the ice.B．When he broke away from his playmate Starlight.C．When his companion got lost during the food hunt.D．When his owners were on a visit to their relatives.5. What enabled Iwworrigan to find her lost dog Nanuq?A．Strangers’act of kindness.B．Her father’s non-stop efforts.C．A letter from the town of Wales. D．Her sharing Nanuq’s photos online.6. What does the underlined word “This” in paragraph 5 refer to?A．The shallow waters. B．The floating ice.C．The frozen surface. D．The separation of Wales and St.Lawrence.7. What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph?A．Brooklyn brought Nanuq back home by air.B．Nanuq had an accident during his disappearance.C．Nanuq’s return brought mixed feelings to Brooklyn.D．Nanuq was in poor condition when he was taken back home.Solar panels (太阳能板) are used to turn sunlight into electricity. Most solar panels are placed on land. But recently people have begun to explore putting floating solar panels on water. Because these panels float, some people call them “floatovoltaics”.On land, solar panels are fixed on roofs or are held up by special frames. On the water, floatovoltaics are placed on a raft or floating platform attached to the bottom of a lake or reservoir. (水库). The raft usually has a space for workers to walk out and mend the panels, if needed. Floating solar panels cost about 25%more than those placed on land.The researchers in a new study looked at 114,555 reservoirs worldwide. They used computer programs to figure out how much electricity could be produced yearly by covering 30% of these reservoirs with floating solar panels. The answer was surprisingly large—10 times as much energy as all the solar power being produced in the world.The scientists found floatovoltaics would be especially conducive when reservoirs were near smaller cities (50,000 people or fewer). The researchers say there are about 6,256 cities like this around the world, and floating solar panels could provide all the electricity the cities need. Floatovoltaics can also help save water by limiting evaporation (蒸发) from reservoirs. The scientists say that solar panels covering just 30%of the reservoirs’ surfaces could save as much water as 300,000 people would use in a year.There are several other reasons that make floatovoltaics a good idea. Solar panels work better when they’ re not extremely hot. The water helps cool the panels so that th ey create more energy. However, covering too much of a reservoir with panels could affect the plants and animals in the water. The scientists say it will be important to study how floating panels will affect water in each reservoir. Focusing first on man-made reservoirs and canals will avoid some of those problems.8. Why is a space usually left on the raft?A．To prevent the raft from being over-burdened.B．Out of consideration for the efficiency of floatovoltaics.C．To prevent solar panels from being wetted by water.D．For the convenience of repairing broken solar panels.9. What does the underlined word “conducive” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Affordable. B．Useful. C．Demanding. D．Troublesome. 10. What’s one of the advantages of floatovoltaics over solar panels on land?A．They are easier to fix. B．They are less expensive.C．They are less likely to break down. D．They are more productive during certaintimes.11. What does the last paragraph imply about floatovoltaics?A．They are imperfect. B．They affect agriculture.C．They are environment-friendly. D．They only apply to artificial canals.Most people have probably read a book or seen a movie or show about an AI (Artificial Intelligence) or robot that has become so smart that it can take over the world. The AI in stories like this is known as an AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). A true AGI would be intelligent in many different areas and would be able to learn on its own. Currently, there are no AGIs. Most experts believe it will be many years before an AGI could possibly be created.Most current AI tools are good at just one task. But scientists have been working to improve AI models. The Al tool that’s gotten the most attention recently is ChatGPT, which allows users to “chat” with a powerfu l Large Language Model (LLM). When asked a question, ChatGPT answers quickly in perfect sentences. It makes up stories and games, writes essays, and much more.ChatGPT appears to be extremely intelligent. But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing—based on its training information—which word is most likely to come next, over and over again. Last month, OpenAI announced a more powerful model—GPT-4. GPT-4 can create and explain jokes, and pass tests difficult for humans. GPT-4 has also been trained on pictures, and can be used in powerful ways. For example, it can create a working website from a description and a rough drawing of the site.The rapid progress and more general skills of recent AI models worry some people. Last week, many computer experts published a letter calling for a six-month pause for any work on AI tools stronger than GPT-4 to make sure AI tools are safe.However, some AI experts say the letter makes today’s AI tools sound more intelligent than they really are. Others say it’s more important to worry about real problems in current AI tools rather than imaginary ones in the future. Anyway, the letter has sent a strong warning that many people, including leaders, will be thinking about carefully.12. What’s most experts’ opinion on an AGI?A．It is relatively easy to access. B．It lacks the ability to teach itself.C．It takes time to turn it into reality. D．It is certain to take over the world.13. Strictly speaking, what ChatGPT does is ________.A．full of creativity B．pure guessworkC．well worth promoting D．a reflection of high intelligence14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Not all AI experts agree with the letter.B．The intelligence of today’s AI tools is understated.C．Potential problems of future AI tools need attention.D．The letter appeals for focus on real problems in current AI tools.15. What can be the best title for the text?A．Problems Resulting from AI Tools B．The Fast Development of AI ToolsC．Are AI Tools the Trend of the Future? D．Are AI Tools Becoming Too Powerful? Trying to get a great night’s sleep is often harder than it looks. 16 On the other hand, a large part of the population spends hours twisting and turning until they can get to sleep. Thankfully, there are countless proven ways that can help you get the rest you need.Reduce stress levels. There are several reasons as to why you may have a harder time falling asleep. However, a large factor that plays into lack of sleep is stress. 17 Therefore, try to keep stress levels to a minimum and work on managing your anxiety levels.Create a peaceful environment. 18 We suggest you create the best environment with what works for you. For example, if you need complete darkness, we recommend you fix some supreme shades rather than standard curtains.19 If you want to get the best night’s sleep, stay away from things like alcohol and caffeine. Similarly, you should avoid any large or heavy meals just before going to bed as you want to ensure you digest your food properly.Cut down on screen time. In our digital world, we spend most of our day staring at screens. At the end of the night, you may want to relax by visiting social media or watching a TV show. However, the light sent out from these screens can make you feel more awake. 20I was in my mid-forties when I bought my house in a quiet, old neighbourhood.

However, my next-door neighbour Kay, who was said to be deaf, was a (n) ______.When I arrived home from work one evening a month later, Kay signaled me to ______ her house.

荥阳高中2017-1018学年上学期实验班阶段性测试（五）高二英语一．阅读理解。
（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AAfter a year of examining studies concerning whether homework is effective, NYC P.S. 116 elementary school decided that math worksheets and essay assignments were actually a waste of time. In February, Principal Jane Hsu sent a letter to parents stating that the Pre-K through fifth grade students would not be given any traditional homework to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy."The negative effects of homework have been well established," Hsu wrote in a note to parents. "They include: children’s frustration and exhaustion, lack of time for other activities and family time and, sadly for many, loss of interest in learning."Some parents, however, disagree with the policy change, believing that a lack of focus will cause children to fall behind. Homework has been part of education from the beginning, and has increased in volume in recent years.Hsu’s advice that children should read and s pend time with their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of P.S. 116. This group feels that homework assignments give children a goal to work toward. Others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that they have begun giving their own homework assignments to their children.An Australian Childhood Foundation survey found that 71% of Australian parents feel they do not spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework. Education experts in Australia are saying that parents should stop helping. Doing so will give kids more independence, will give parents more free time, and will help reduce the number of homework-induced arguments in the family.While some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students, other research shows homework can help kids develop independence, and confidence. It can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives. When parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also drain already exhausted working parents.1．Cancelling traditional homework is aimed at .A. allowing students to learn on their ownB. inspiring students to spend more time with parentsC. wishing students to seek self-developmentD. motivating students to help with housework2．What can be concluded from the 1st and 2nd paragraph?A. Jane Hsu is the first principal to cancel homework.B. Jane Hsu has done thorough research on homework.C. Jane Hsu paid little attention to students’ academic records.D. Jane Hsu knows students prefer activities to their subjects.3．Why are some parents strongly against Principal Jane Hsu?A. They have no time to give their children homework.B. They don’t think the school is responsible for their kids.C. They are afraid their kids will fall behind.D. They dislike their kids doing too many activities.4．What is the author’s attitude to parents’ helping kids with homework?A. Supportive.B. Indifferent.C. Ironic.D. Negative.BHere are our suggestions for keeping busy this week. Dive in!Take to the waves in SouthamptonAlways fa ncied trying your hand at sailing? Now’s your chance.

When her daughter started crying even before take-off, her fears for the flight ― to surprise her husband, a US Army soldier at Fort Rucker, Alabama ― seemed acceptable.The couple seated next to her reacted just as Rebekka Garvison had feared, looking visibly unhappy about sitting next to a fussy (难以取悦的) baby. Ms. Garvison moved to a new seat, hoping it would help. When the baby’s cries continued, the woman sitting next to her asked if she could try.Garvison later described in a grateful Facebook post how the woman, Nyfesha Miller, had the magic touch with her baby. "As soon as she had her, Rylee was looking out the window and stopped crying," Garvison recalled. "When we got in the air she fell right asleep and slept in her lap the whole flight until we got to our gate." Garvison told The Huffington Post she has been in touch with Ms. Miller almost daily since the flight.Garvison’s post has been shared more than 84,000 times, and received hundreds of warm comments. "Years ago, the same kind of thing happened to me," wrote one mother. "It was a seven-hour flight and I had my ten-month-old little boy with me. A nun (修女) was sitting beside me and she walked him up and down the passage when he got fussy. It was such a relief for me and is something I will never forget."Not everyone has had happy experiences with baby air travelers. One airline is considering opening a "baby class" for airplanes with flight attendant nannies (保姆), reported The C hristian Science Monitor’s Meredith Hamilton. For now, parents can hope to be seated beside someone like Ms. Miller on their next flight. "Nyfesha Miller, you willnever understand how happy this act of kindness has made my family," wrote Garvison. 8．Why did Garvison move to a new seat?A. She could have a better view.B. Her baby wanted to change seats.C. To turn to Nyfesha Miller for help.D. Her crying baby annoyed the couple beside her.9．Which words can be used to describe Miller?A. Generous and calm.B. Modest and elegant.C. Caring and friendly.D. Skilled and proud.10．Why did the author use another example?A. To express how common the problem is.B. To call on more strangers to act.C. To prove Garvison’s story popular.D. To share experiences with new moms.11．What is the text mainly about?A. An airline training mothers with babies.B. A kind stranger helping comfort a crying baby.C. A mom not knowing how to deal with a crying baby.D. Moms benefiting from traveling experiences shared online.DNine out of ten people on the planet breathe polluted air, even indoors, the World Health Organization (WHO) said. Some 92% of the population live in places where air pollution exceeds (超过) WHO limits.Air pollution can contribute to lung cancer and heart disease. The Southeast Asia and Western Pacific regions account for nearly two out of every three such deaths, with poorer countries "getting worse". Around three million deaths every year are linked to outdoor air pollution. When "indoor" air pollutio n ― which includes contaminants like wood smoke and cooking fires ― is added, air pollution is linked to one in every nine deaths worldwide, the WHO said. The air quality model used in the data measures the smallest particles (颗粒), less than 2.5 micrometres across, which can enter the bloodstream and reach the brain.Country-by-country data showed that Turkmenistan is ranked first for the death rate connected to air pollution. Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Egypt rounded out the top five. "Rich countries are getting much better in improving the quality of the air," Dr Carlos Dora from the WHO told the Associated Press. "Poorer countries are getting worse." However, he said, North America is doing better than Europe, mostly becauseEurope depends more on diesel fuel(柴油)and farming practices. China, the country with the sixth-highest death rate linked to air pollution, is relatively wealthy, but is bothered by smog in its cities and polluted air from industrial sources.The WHO pointed to sustainable transport, waste management, and renewable energies as possible ways to reduce air pollution. It said its latest data represented the most detailed study it has ever released. The analysis combined satellite measurement and more than 3,000 monitoring stations on the ground with air transport models. The report is based on 2012 figures, which are the most recent data available.12．How is the text organized?A. Conclusions-Consequences-Examples-Solutions.B. Facts-Reasons-Examples-Solutions.C. Reasons-Effects-Solutions-Trends.D. Trends-Opinions-Reasons-Solutions.13．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Heating tools.B. Indoor waste.C. Producing activities.D. Harmful substances.14．Which has the lowest death rate caused by air pollution?A. China.B. Turkmenistan.C. Egypt.D. North America. 15．Which may the author advocate to reduce air pollution?A. Control the population.B. Invent energies.C. Use air transport models.D. Go green.二．七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Four Reasons to Look for a Summer JobYou may have heard all kinds of negative stuff again and again about this summer’s job market. 16But they are out there. So go for it. If you don’t land the job you want, you’ll still gain something from the process.Develop your interview skills. The more jobs you apply for, the better you’ll get at interviewing. 17It helps with everything from getting into college to landing a full-time job when the time comes.Get better at dealing with rejection. 18Rejection is a fact of life, and there’s no denying that it can be hard to handle. The good news is that the more we face rejection and learn to deal with the feelings that go with it, the easier it becomes to get past the hurt and bounce back.19Did you take a job that wasn’t your first choice? You might discover a newskill or interest you never knew you had. Get offered the perfect job? Feel your self-esteem soar! And if nothing works out?
