His first post explored the use of English font (字体) on Hong Kong's road signs. “That post surprisingly received many likes and shares, so it got me thinking abo ut expanding my audience,” he recalled.In 2016, the enthusiast collected 50 Chinese characters from Hong Kong's road signs and outlined and uploaded the image to his Facebook account. A friend suggested turning this collection into a font. Yau saw it as a means to preserve a cherished aspect of Hong Kong's history. About twenty years ago, many of the city's signs featured handcrafted characters made by prisoners. However, as design technology adsances, these tradi tional signs are gradually being replaced,Following. yisits the remaining traditional road signs in the city, Yau's team had outliried approximatel y 500 characters. Yet, this fell short of the 7,000 Chinese characters required for practical use by those who us e Chinese daily. Faced with this limitation, the team began ercating new characters by mixing and matching existing components, adjusting line thickness, and modifying radicals (部首). For instance, when they couldn' t locate the Chinese character for“prison” on any existing signs, they designed one from scratch. This process英语测试题第2页 (共10页)involved extensive trial and error.After six years of dedicated effort, Yau found motivation in the constant enthusiasm of his follower s. “They’ ve been cagerly anticipating this project for as long as l' ve been working on it,” he remarked. “O ne even expressed that he had been waiting for this font since his first year of secondary school. Now, as a sixth grader, his wait is finally over.Yau is thrilled to witness how his followers will use this digital font.“I cannot own a road sign. but what I can do is digitize it,” Yau said. “I did not want to just document it but develop it into something we can use in daily life. This is a way to preserve Hong Kong's visual cultural memory.”4. What inspired Yau to design a font?A. His interest in road signs.B. His popularity with his fans.C. His desire to restore history.D. His passion for city planning.5. Why did Yau's team create new characters?A. To combine the components.B. To meet the need of daily use.C. To set limitation to the characters.D.

Determined and innovative.D. Ambitious and competitive.CThe field of anti-ageing medicine has exploded in recent years due to discoveries about the fundamen tal biology of ageing which are translated into experimental therapies (疗法). The latest fountain of youth to pour from the lab comes in the form of vaccines (疫苗) against age-related conditions—— cancer, heart dise ase, dementia and more. The first of these could be available by the end of the decade. All-purpose anti-agei ng injections are also in development.The upsides of such vaccines are clear. Anything that limits the impact of age-related conditions on people who live into old age— not to mention on the loved ones who often end up caring for them— has to be welcomed. They also promise to lessen effect on the increasingly societal and economic costs of these dis eases.英语测试题第3页 (共10页)But as with all anti-ageing interventions, there are potential downsides too. If millions of people livesignificantly longer, we risk a population explosion on a planet whose resources are already overstretched. If t he vaccines merely delay the beginning of age-related conditions, they will only postpone the burden on peopl e and society. And as Nobcl prizewinner Venki Ramakrishnan told us carlier this year. a long-lived society islikely to be an unmoving one. These are familiar fears. The common answer is that the goal is increased healt hspan. That means people living for longer. free from the diseases of old age, then suddenly declining anddying.We wońt know the-outcome until : the therapies have been widely used, at which point it will be too late to put the genie back in the bottle. But there is really no turning back anyway. If vaccines and other anti-ageing therapies work and are affordable, they will be used. Besides, nɔbody would argue that innovation s like antibiotics, vaccines and advanced diagnostics were a bad idea even though they marked the beginning of our era of age-related diseases. Similarly, we shouldn't fear life-saving medical advances on the basis of un intended consequences. If we can make lives longer and less painful, the downsides are a price worth paying.8. Why is the field of anti-ageing medicine growing rapidly?A. The biology of ageing is better applied.B. The trend of healthy lifestyle is rising.C. The demand for longer life is increasing.D. The number of elderly is rising globally.9. How do anti-ageing vaccines benefit society?A. By increasing the workforce.B. By curing people of diseases.C. By boosting economic growth.D. By reducing healthcare expense.10. What does the underlined phrase“put the genie back in the bottle” mean?A. To stop the process of ageing.B. To erase the impact of the therapics.C. To create a new medical breakthrough.D. To delay the development of technology.11. What is the best title for this article?A. Can Anti-Ageing Medicine Really Work?B. What Is the Risk of Anti-Ageing Medicine?C. How to Stay Young with Anti-Ageing Medicine?D. Is It Worthwhile Using Anti-Ageing Medicine?英语测试题第4页 (共10页)DFranz Katka (卡夫卡) died 100 years ago with his literary works unnoticed. He had instructed his friend Max Brod to burn his unpublished works. Brod did not: he believed Kafka to be a literary genius and publishe d his late friend's writing. In other words, Brod decided that Kafka's stories belonged not to the late author, but to the public.Brod's dilemma echoes today. People generate' more data than ever, which, unlike physical bodies, does not disappear. According to Carl Ohman, a Swedish political scientist. this condition makes the modern world“post-mortal”(死后的).“Living in the post-mortał condition is to constantly find oneself in the shoes of Max Brod", he observes.The digital era has reshaped humans’ relationship with the dead—— as seen in social media reminders for birthdays of dead individuals. Such reminders are to grow more common: Mr. Ohman's research has foun d that on Facebook the dead may well outnumber the living within 40 years. Advanced technology enables a continued relationship with the dead, such as Amazon's development of a feature for Alexa, virtual assistant, to speak in the voice of a lost relative. Startups have used data to make chatbots of the dead-to strengthen use rs’ commercial relationship, Mr. Ohman points out.At the root of Ohman's book The Aftorlife of Data is various complex philosophical questions. To whom do the dead's data belong? Are data something people create, or a digital analogue (类比) to a physical body? If data are a digital form of the body, what responsibilities does the living have? These are not merel y questions for individuals but for society. After all, historians often study the diaries of the dead. Their write rs may have preferred to keep them private, but the light that such documents can shine on humanity's past outweighs the late owner's wishes. Mr. Ohman: notes that data constitute“the biggest database of human behavioùr in the history of our species”. And he urges that the social media firms should think twice in terms of how they handle digital remains.12. What is the function of paragraph 1?A. To emphasize Kafka's literary talent.B. To lead to the discussion on data handling.C. To praise the act to publish Kafka's works.D. To write an introduction for Ohman's book.13. Why do people buy Alexa, the virtual assistant?A. To create a digital database.B. To control devices by voice.C. To access information quickly.D. To communicate with the dead.14. What problem will people face in post-mortal world according to the passage?A. How to manage the dead's data.B. How to realize the dead's wishes.C. How to protect the dead's privacy.D. How to restore the dead's. belongings.15. Which of the following will Mr. Ohman probably agree with?A. Data should be in the possession of individuals.B. Historians should control access to digital remains.C. Data's historical value is more important than the dead's will.D. Social media firms should be fined for misuse of digital remains.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)在后面的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三上学期综合测试英语试题一
广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三上学期综合测试英语试题一学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Do you remember the first stop-motion movie, with a galloping(飞奔)horse? Eadweard Muybridge made it in 1872, and the funny thing is—the first stop-motion movie was made because of a bet. The question was: do all four of the horse’s hooves (蹄)leave the ground at the same time at any point of the gallop? And Leland Stanford, the founder of the Stanford University, hired Muybridge to help him settle the bet.Stanford claimed that, at some point of the gallop, all four of the horse’s hooves are in the air. Some of his colleagues took a common stand that one foot is always on the ground. It was a popularly debated question of the time, and it was Muybridge’s task to provide the answer using his photographic knowledge.Now, you can imagine that cameras in 1872 couldn’t really capture the things moving quickly. Movie cameras still didn’t exist, so it was out of the question. So, Muybridge had to get creative. He experimented with a set of 12 cameras. He used them to photograph a galloping horse in a series of shots. His initial efforts seemed to prove that Stanford was right, but he still didn’t have the process perfected.In 1878, Muybridge raised his creativity and skill on a new level. He set twelve wired triggers (触发器) connected to shutters (快门) for cameras. He placed them evenly along the race track to capture the galloping horse. As the horse galloped the race track, it set off the triggers and made every camera take a photo with less than half a second difference.The photos showed that Leland Stanford was right, and obviously, he won the bet. But this invention was a winning situation for all of us. Muybridge later invented a zoopraxiscope, which was a bit like the GIFs that people now post on social media and is considered an early device for displaying motion pictures. Thanks to photography and his invention, the cinema was born.1．Which of the following words best describes the invention of the first stop-motion movie? A．Difficult.B．Unexpected.C．Serious.D．Interesting.2．Why did Muybridge have to be creative?A．Because he was lacking in devices.B．Because he was afraid of failure.C．Because he was short of experience.D．Because he was interested in experiment.3．What can we know about Muybridge’s experiment?A．Twelve horses galloped at the same time.B．Muybridge invented GIF in the experiment.C．One camera was used to take photos in the first attempt.D．The triggers were set off by the horse in the second attempt.4．What is the best title for the article?A．A special history of cinema.B．A popular study about horses.C．A bet inspired the birth of cinema.D．A question led to great experiments.A character in one of Shakespeare’s plays once said, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” Any of these could apply to the modern-day sportsmen. Many still argue about the nature of talent. Some claim that people are born to be sportsmen, while others say it is only through devotion and hard work that they achieve their abilities. Arguably though, it is not until their talents are acknowledged (认可) by the public that they truly have greatness fallen upon them.With this acknowledgement of their “greatness” come all the trappings of modern-day celebrity: money, power, influence and responsibility. For better or for worse, like it or hate it, modern sportsmen are the role models of children everywhere. These children will grow up admiring their heroes, devoting their lives to copying their every move, and wanting above all to be like them. Due to this fascination, particularly with the massive influence of the media, it is more important than ever for these sportsmen to acknowledge their responsibility.In the past few months alone, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports stars of the present day. They are often mirroring the very worst aspects of society, a fact that the self-righteous (自以为是的) anger of the modern press has been quick to point out. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be perfect. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is markedly different from the sportsmen they grew up watching, but with the all-seeing eye of modern media it is a different world, and different standards must be expected.Of course, there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. There are no prison sentences, no fines, no community service—unless their behaviors are illegal. Unless they break the law, it is entirely up to them as to whether or not they think their behavior is appropriate. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and criticizing their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield when accused of the same crimes.It is without doubt that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who worship them. Modern day sportsmen are almost ideals of today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions over the world. Some may complain against it, denying their influence on these children’s lives. Others may be aware of it but not respect it, while many may both be aware of it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you.5．In Paragraph 1, the author tries to emphasize ______.A．sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by peopleB．sportsmen achieve greatness through their devotion and effortsC．different ways for sportsmen to achieve success and greatnessD．the core characteristic to become great sportsmen nowadays6．According to Paragraph 4, we can learn that ______.A．role models usually have positive influence on their fansB．sportsmen have the right to behave freely within the lawC．all the fans will follow their heroes’ actionsD．no duty is given to sportsmen7．The underlined phrase thrust upon in paragraph 1 most probably means ______.A．put off B．removed from C．related to D．forced on 8．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To advise the media to choose proper events to report.B．To inform the public that sportsmen are no role models.C．To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities.D．To argue that sportsmen should not be expected as heroes.Washing clothes by hand sounds like a simple task, but for many women around theworld it can do harm to their well-being and living. What would you do with your time if you could spend less time washing your clothes? “Paid work,” replied Aleas, a 49-year-old woman from a family of 10 with no access to an electric washing machine. She spent 8-12 hours every week washing everyone’s clothes by hand and described how the required body position of sitting on her feet caused her back pain.Washing Machine Project provides low-income communities with an accessible washing solution. Its task is to help women save the time to take charge of their lives. “A mother or a child doesn’t have to spend 20 hours a week washing clothes by hand,” said Nav Sawhney, an engineering student at University of Bath in the UK.Sawhney has created a movable washing machine that is operated by hand. He came up with the idea when Divya, a woman he met in southern India, explained the struggle of washing clothes without a machine. This burden is often shouldered by women and girls in many developing countries. Now, Sawhney’s washing machines, which he named Divya after the woman, could greatly reduce the time of washing clothes and allow women and young girls to receive education and have paid work.After research in Iraq, Lebanon, the Philippines and Jordan, as well as India, Sawhney came up with a machine that uses only 10 liters of water every time, compared with 30 by a typical electric machine, extremely important in places where water is short. It’s also made out of things that are easy to get and replace, which means it doesn’t need much money to make it. Sawhney and his volunteers won the support of University of Bath, and already received orders from Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda.9．What does washing clothes by hand mean to Aleas?A．A hard way of making a living.B．A simple method of killing time.C．The tiring housework she has to do.D．The family duty she volunteers to do.10．Why was the washing machine named after Divya?A．She inspired the invention.B．She helped with the design.C．She was the first to order it.D．She thought up the idea first. 11．What can we learn about the washing machine “Divya”?A．It is cheap and water-saving.B．It is mainly promoted in India.C．It is shared by a community.D．It is free to use.12．What is the main purpose of Sawhney’s washing machines?A．To develop the market in developing countries.B．To reduce women’s burden in low-income areas.C．To take the place of traditional washing machines.D．To wash clothes in an environmentally-friendly way.Quantum (量子) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I’ve also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us “cure cancer, and even take steps to tun climate change in the opposite direction.” This is the sort of hype (炒作) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can’t keep." What’s new,” Johnson wrote, “is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers.”As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work’s potential. If researchers can’t keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because “quantum” stands for something cool you shouldn’t be able to understand. And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016.Taylor shares Johnson’s concerns about hype. but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.The company, he says, is closer than any other firm “by a very large margin (幅度)”to building a “useful” quantum computer, one that “solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.” He adds, “People will naturally discount my opinions,but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.”Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition“ by a wide margin”, as Taylor claims? I don’t know. I’m certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.13．How does the author feels about Tobnson’s concerns?A．Approving.B．Unconcerned C．Doubtful.D．Excited. 14．What leads to Taylor’s optimism about quantum computing?A．His dominance in physics.B．The competition in the field.C．His confidence in PyQuantum.D．The investment of tech companies. 15．What does the underlined word “prone” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Open.B．Cool.C．Useful.D．Resistant. 16．Which would be the best tide for the passage?A．Is Johnson More Competent Than Taylor?B．Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology?C．Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being?D．Will Quantun Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype?二、七选五Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. ____17____ Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.____18____ Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious when they’re in poorly lit places — and so more likely to eat lots of food.

AiPhone 12OutlookFeaturing the same 6.1-inch display size as the iPhone 11 and iPhone XR before it,iPhone 12 is making the transition from an I,CD screen to OLED. With flat aluminum(铝)sides for an overall look, it more closely matches the iPad Pro and iPad Air. Aside from the flat sides, iPhone 12 still largely resembles the iPhone 11. Around back, it has two cameras housed in a glass circle, which makes for a nice contrast with the rest of the smooth back panel. To avoid being broken or cracked when dropped,iPhone12 is covered with what Apple describes as a”ceramic(陶瓷) shield”.CameraThe iPhone 12 has a 12-megapixel f/1.6 main camera the fastest aperture(光圈)in any iPhone yet. The low-light performance has improved, and its advancements in computational photography to maximize detail and dynamic range has also been achieved. The front camera on the iPhone 12 is gaining Night Mode, as well. ProcessoriPhone 12 is powered by the company's new A14 Bionic processor, which is the first smartphone chip built on a 5nm process, leading to improved performance and efficiency. It's claimed that the processor is up to 50 percent faster than the leading chips in Android smartphones.Wireless chargingTo improve wireless charging on the iPhone 12, it contains a"Magsafe "system with built-in magnets to guarantee that the iPhone 12 properly lines up with the Magsafe accessories(配件).1. What is the size of iPhone 12?A. About 6.1-inch as that of iPhone MaxB. The same size as iPad ProC Bigger than that of iPhone 11D. As big as iPhone XR.2. What's the function of the"Magsafe "system?A. To carry out the wired charging of iPhone 12.B. To perfectly match the iPad Pro and iPad Air.C. To make sure the iPhone 12 is right for the MagSafe accessoriesD. To process the information in a more rapid way.3. Which of the followings is TRUE about iPhone 12?A. There are only two cameras placed separately in front and back.B. It is powered by A14 Bionic processor used in Android smartphonesC. All cameras of iPhone 12 have the Night Mode.D. A ceramic shield helps protect against breaking and crackingBMost of us have spent more time at home recently than we ever imagined possible. Maybe you took the opportunity to clean, or maybe you plan to do it tomorrow. These tips can help make your house better for your body and your mind.Think about keeping your home clean the minute you walk in. Take off your shoes at your door. A University of Arizona study found that the average shoe harbors nearly 421, 000 different bacteria, including Escherichia colil and strep. Pesticides, tar,lead,mold, and cleaning chemicals can also get tracked into your home via your shoes.Leave a pair of slippers by the front door.Even if you think you’ve disinfected everything, you might have overlooked some germ magnets(磁铁) One notorious offender the toothbrush holder. Rinse it daily and run it through the dishwasher regularly. Another germ magnet: kitchen sponges. They’re so unhealthful they’ve been banned from restaurant kitchens.Portable ultraviolet(紫外线)lights are a highly boasted germ killer. Hospitals use powerful UVC light to disinfect rooms, as it can kill viruses(possibly even the new coronavirus ). But beware: not all home disinfecting systems use UVC, and some UV lights can quickly burn your skin.Don't forget to clean the air in your home too. The gold standard is a high-efficiency particulate air(HEPA ) filter(过滤器) The Department of Energy requires that they remove 99. 97 percent of pollutants and particles(颗粒)in the air.Portable HEPA filters can clean a single room or the entire house. There are cheaper ways to clean the air-start by cracking a window. Indoor air can have two to five times more pollutants than outdoor air.Many viruses don’ t spread as well in moist air as they do in the cold, dry months.One easy solution for the winter: using a humidifier. The CDC advises against cool-mist humidifiers, which can contain bacteria if they aren’t cleaned regularly.Old-fashioned steam humidifiers are best. But too much humidity can worsen respiratory(呼吸的) problems and encourage the growth of dust mites.4. What should you do before you walk into your house?A. Take off your coatB. Change your shoesC. Clean up the bacteriaD. Dust off the shoe5. What does the CDC think of the cool-mist humidifiers?A. It is a must in winterB. It can worsen respiratory problemsC. It is not as good as the old-fashioned steam humidifiersD. It is an easy solution for dry seasons6. Which is NOT the way introduced in the passage to make the house cleaner?A. Freshen your sheets.B. Wash toothbrush holdersC. Disinfect rooms by UVC lightD. Clean the air with HEPA filters7. Which of the following is probably the best title for the text?A. How to Do CleaningB. Keep Yourself HealthyC. Make Your Mind BoosterD. Get a Healthy HomeCCurtis Whitson knew the water fall was coming. He’d rafted down the Arroyo Seco, a river in central California, before. But this year was different. Heavy snow and spring rains had turned the usually manageable falls into something fierce. And this year, instead of his friends, Whitson's companions were his wife, Krystal Ramirez,and his 13-year-old son, Hunter. As the three of them approached the falls late in the afternoon of the third day of their camping trip, Whitson could tell from the increasing roar of water in the narrow canyon that they were in serious trouble, There was no way they' d be able to rappel down(绕绳下降) the rocks as planned.“The water was just gushing through there with tremendous force, " recalls Whitson.They could wade to the shore, but would anyone find them there? They had no mobile phone service, and they hadn't seen a single person in the past three days.As he considered what to do, Whitson hit on a bit of luck--he heard voice scoming from the other side of the falls. He yelled, but the sound of the rushing water drowned him out.We have to get these people a message, Whitson thought.Then he spotted his gree n Nalgene water bottle. Whitson grabbed it and carved“Help! "on it. Ramirez also reminded him that he had a pen and paper, which she’d brought to play games with, in his backpack. Whitson knew it was a long shot. But he scrawled"We are stuck here at the waterfall. Get help please! "and pushed the note into the bottle, throwing it over the waterfall perfectly.“All right, that's all we can do, "Whitson told Hunter.It took 30 minutes to navigate back upstream to the beach where they made a fire.With no reasonable expectation that their message in a bottle would find its way to anyone, they spelled out SOS in white rocks. As the evening wore on, they placed ahead lamp with a flashing light on a ledge(岩石突出部).Then, just after midnight,they heard a helicopter hovering above them. Whitson ran over to the headlamp and started flashing it at the helicopter. He, Ramirez, and Hunter were waving and hollering when they heard the magic words: "This is Search and Rescue. You have been found.”It was a moment of pure happiness as the three chatted with the officers who had rescued them. Together, they marveled at the unlikelihood of it all. Two men had seen the water bottle in the water. When they picked it up, they noticed the writing on it--“Help!”.A few days after news of the rescue broke, one of the hikers contacted Whitson.That's when he learned the story. There were actually two little girls hiking with the men that day. It was the girls who first spotted the bottle and swam to get it. Whitsonis planning on having a big barbecue to meet the hikers---and thank them.8. Which was NOT the trouble the Whitsons faced?A. The water falls were fierceB. There was no mobile phone serviceC. All of them were not experienced in raftingD. They had to rappel down the rocks9. Which is the order that the Whitsons helped themselves out?①They spelled out SOS on the rocks②Whitson squeezed the note"Get help please"into the bottle③Whitson yelled to the other side of the falls.④Whitson carved"help "on his green bottleA.③④②①B.②③④①C.①④③②D.④③②①10. What does the underlined part in paragraph 7 mean?A. It is a fantastic ideaB. It's a big challengeC. It's a wild attemptD. It's a long explorationI1. Whitson is planning to have a big barbecue__________.A. to celebrate their survivalB. to show gratitude to the hikersC. to have a family unionD. to meet and thank the rescue officersDIf you have spent any time reading papers on teaching strategies in the past few years, you have probably noticed a strong backlash against drill & practice, in favor of“constructivist activities "and"project-based learning”.Memorizing facts, many people argue, is an outdated educational practice, since anyone could just Google a fact on demand or look it up on Wikipedia nowadays. They consider that we should focus all school activities on the acquisition of skills asopposed to knowledge.However, learning by rote (memorization by repetition)is more important than you think. There are many cases in which having knowledge immediately on the tip of your tongue can have great social and professional value. For example, last night ata networking event, when I casually asked a Nigerian entrepreneur how much of his business was conducted in English versus in his native Yoruba, he immediately became more engaged in our conversation. It was as if the simple fact that I knew that Yorubawas spoken in Nigeria won his trust, and therefore built up our relationship.The same goes for professional settings. If I am a pharmaceutical salesman talking to a doctor about a specific digestion drug, and he asks if it has any effect on the process of peristalsis, it will look quite unprofessional if I have to pull out my medical dictionary to look up the word. I need to memorize those facts so that I can access them immediately.Of course, most constructivist educators will argue that on-the-job training and project-based learning are more effective at learning new concepts than rote memorization. The problem is that no single cost-effective constructivist activity will guarantee that you will be exposed to all the concepts you need, or that you will fully remember the facts that you are exposed to. If you actually want to acquire a full range of knowledge about a given topic, the most guaranteed and efficient way Is to study deliberately using the time-honored practice of repetition -specifically confidence-based repetition.12. Which of the following is the most popular teaching method now?A. Drill &c practice.B. Memorizing factsC. Constructivist activitiesD. Confidence-based repetition13. What does the underlined word"backlash"in paragraph I refer to?A. Outdated ideaB Negative reactionC. Educational standardD. Official support.14. Why is the authors communication with a Nigerian entrepreneur mentioned?A. To show the value of knowing about YorubaB. To support his argument for learning by rot eC. To introduce effective communication skills.D. To prove the power of having a wide range of knowledge15. What does the author think about project-based learning?A. It is of limited value in learning new concepts.B. It is an efficient way to learn a new concept.C. It should be combined with a full range of knowledgeD. It will be replaced by the time-honored practice of repetition其次节(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入空白处的最住选项。

fascinated by insects.Wanting to protect them,I started building houses for ants,using little pieces of wood and leaves.I then moved on to making little cups and saucers from silver foil(箔纸)for the magical creatures.When seeing my work,my mother told me that the smaller I made things,the bigger my name would become.As the years went by,my designs became more complicated.Making sculptures isn’t

beat my record with a sculpture of a human fetus that measured0.078mm by0.053mm.I was diagnosed with autism(自闭症).In school,my teachers had pointed me out as an example of failure;now,I see my autism as a gift.It’s pushed me to be the best I can be.I hold workshops in schools for children with neuro(神经的)problems,sharing my story and helping them create their own miniature figures.The microscopic world has always been my happy place.I’ve tried to make bigger sculptures,but small is best for me.We need to appreciate the little things in life.Small things can also be mighty,too.24.What drove the

by University of Essex and University of Chicago,found that employees in remote settings generate fewer and lower-quality innovative ideas compared to those working full-time in the office.The findings also apply to those in hybrid settings where employees get the best of both worlds,spending some days in the office and some at home.While remote and hybrid working arrangements can enhance employees’work-life balance,many business leaders have voiced concerns over innovation suffering with these new work modes.Interestingly, the CEO of Zoom,the leading online communication application,recently required employees work more from the office,specifically mentioning a decline in innovation.The new research finds their concerns seem to stand on solid ground.“Innovation in the workplace can occur through random,informal‘watercooler’conversations between employees,such as when they are chatting over coffee time,”explained lead researcher Dr.Christoph Siemroth.“However,these‘productive accidents’are unlikely to occur when employees work from home.”The study followed over48,000employees from an Indian IT company,which has taken significant steps such as offering financial rewards to promote a culture where all employees see innovation as a key part of their job.The employees write up ideas about process improvements,cost-saving measures,or new products,which are then evaluated by the company.While the quantity of ideas didn’t change during the working from home period compared to working in the office,the quality of ideas suffered.During the later hybrid period,the quantity of submitted ideas fell and innovation suffered,particularly in teams which did not schedule when they worked at the office or from home.The findings imply that companies should take steps to regulate when employees are in the office. Innovation does not work well if half the team is in on Mondays while the other half is in on Wednesdays. Instead,set days when the whole team are expected in the office.While this limits the flexibility of hybrid work,research suggests that innovation benefits as a result.28.What do the underlined words“stand on solid ground”in paragraph2mean?A.Need solid proof.B.Be hard to believe.C.Be easy to understand.D.Have good reasons.29.What contributes to workplace innovation according to Dr.Christoph Siemroth?A.Favorable and relaxing company culture.B.Unplanned interaction among employees.C.Access to workplace facilities and resources.D.Professional training in promoting productivity.30.What can we learn about workplace innovation from the study?A.Remote workers generated ideas of high quality.B.Financial rewards could greatly boost innovation.C.The hybrid work mode delivered unsatisfying results.D.Working modes had no impact on the number of ideas.31.What is suggested for companies to improve innovation in the last paragraph?A.Allow more flexibility in work schedules.B.Encourage team work over individual work.C.Require full-time office work for all employees.D.Arrange time for collective presence of employees.DWhen it comes to balancing the needs of humansand the needs of nature,historically it was“develop orconserve”or“develop or restore”.However,nowconservation methods are increasingly focusing oncoexistence with nature and ecological resilience(恢复力).The traditional model in coastal protection is thatyou build some kind of hard,fixed structures like a seawall, but conventional seawalls can have negative effects on biodiversity,habitats,nutrient cycling and the environment at large.“In this case,coastal protection and biodiversity are really at odds,”says Carter Smith, who researches coastal restoration.That’s where living shorelines come in.Living shorelines incorporate plants and natural materials like sand and rock to stabilize coastal areas and protect them from storms while also creating more natural habitats and minimizing environmental destruction.Smith and his colleagues studied how living shorelines performed during multiple hurricanes and found that living shorelines had significantly less“visible damage or erosion”compared to sites with conventional storm protection infrastructure.In addition to living shorelines,predators(捕食者)also play important roles in restoring ocean ecosystems.“One of the best examples we have of top predators facilitating ecosystems are tiger sharks in Australia,”says Prof.Brian Silliman,one of Smith’s colleagues.When the sharks are around,sea turtles eat fewer sea plants.“It’s not because the sharks eat a lot of sea turtles but because they scare them toward the shoreline.”When physical stressors like climate change reach a certain point in a given ecosystem,wildlife can rapidly decline.But wildlife that is adjusted to coexisting with a top predator may have a higher stress threshold(阈值).In our ever-changing world,the ability to adapt is as important as ever.“I think there’s great optimism and opportunity here,”Silliman says.“There is so much that we can learn from nature,and the more we can learn to coexist and to integrate our society with thriving ecosystems,the better it will be for everyone,”Smith agrees.32.What is implied in paragraph1?A.The balance between humans and nature.B.The improvement in ecological resilience.C.A promising consequence of nature restoration.D.A shift in the environmental protection strategy.33.What’s the purpose of paragraph2?A.To present Smith’s research achievements.B.To demonstrate the significance of shorelines.C.To explain the function of conventional seawalls.D.To show the problem of old-fashioned protection.34.How do tiger sharks help restore the ocean ecosystem?A.By regulating sea turtles’behavior.B.By influencing sea turtles’population.C.By removing sea plants from their habitat.D.By preventing physical stressors occurring.35.What tone do Silliman and Smith take in the last paragraph?A.Skeptical.B.Cautious.C.Hopeful.D.Urgent.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入空白处的最佳选项。
