Aat3am or written on paper,looking sad and regretful that we’ve put them there.Our words laugh at us before and after they leave our bodies.I messaged a writing mentor(导师)when I found myself running in circles.With only a small window of time to myself each afternoon,I found it hard to write.If only I had more time,I could finish my book.If only people would leave me alone,I could become an accomplished writer.It was everyone else’s fault.Small—my mentor told me to start small but keep going.“Do what you can,when you can.Let that be enough during the busy seasons.”In her eyes,she was once me.She was once crazy with tasks that kept her hands pushing,pulling, grabbing and moving endlessly.She recognized herself in the way I talked with starry eyes about my dreamy writing goals and plans.Essays,articles and short stories flowered in my rich mind.In a few wise words,she gave me the freedom to write in small periods of time she called“the cracks of the day”.She argued that I should run after publishing with the same desire as ever.But in her patient voice,I heard a gentle reminder of stopping running so hard and instead slowing to a sustainable pace.So I write.I submit.I live,and I dream.31．What can we infer about the author from the first paragraph?A．She has a strong desire to write.B．She has serious heart problems.C．She is forced to write constantly.D．She is unable

the author?A．All roads lead to Rome.B．Strike while the iron is hot.C．No pains,no gains.D．Constant drops wear away a stone.BA Guide to Botany:Online Botanical Painting SessionOur Guide to Botany class

techniques and exercises.Materials:You will need a variety of plants,flowers,leaves or dried flowers to work from!You don’t need too many,just enough to make an interesting arrangement,but if you’re really caught short,just one or two houseplants will be fine.WatercoloursA variety of brushes,from mop-headed to thin detail brushesWatercolour paperDate and

practical but never simple subjectDNot long ago,people could only buy organic food in small shops.Today it is common in most major supermarkets.The reason for the increase is that more and more people are demanding food grown without chemicals.Since the1990s,organic farm production has gone up continuously.This pattern is expected to continue around the globe.Australia leads the world in land used as for organic agriculture.It has four times as all of Asia.However,most of the land is not very fertile,and it only produces a modest amount of food.Argentina is a distant second,followed by Brazil,the United States and China.In Africa,only a very small amount of land is registered for organic farming.That does not mean Africa relies on chemicals.In fact,many farmers do not use chemicals because they cannot afford them.Yet there are no programmes for these farmers to prove they do not use chemicals.Without these programmes their food can never be approved organic.India has had the most dramatic recent increase in organic farming.Like many other countries,India sees continual growth in organic food sales around the world.This,of course,leads to growth in profits.Sales of organic food were more than doubled from2000to2005.Like India,many countries are trying to increase commercial organic farming to get a share of the sales.This has led to criticism.Some people believe that organic farming should not just be about making money.They think the goal is to help the environment.Others say organic farming will not continue if it is not profitable. They say that people should be able to make money while providing healthy food for mankind.42．What is the passage mainly about?A．Organic food has become much more common.B．Organic farming is growing around the world.C．People do not want to eat food with chemicals in it.D．Countries all want to make money from organic farming.43．Why do people want to increase organic farming?A．More and more people demand chemicals to grow food.B．Organic food is good for Earth and the human beings.C．There are fewer chemicals available to the human beings.D．Profits from organic farming help make approval programmes.44．From the passage,it can be said that__________.A．India uses the least land to organic farming.B．Brazil uses less land to organic farming than China.C．the US is the fourth largest organic farming country.D．China and India have the same amount of organic farmland.45．It can be inferred from the passage that__________.A．people who eat food with chemicals have shorter lifespan.B．India will soon become the largest country of growing organic food.C．more countries will farm organically as the environment gets worse.D．there will be fewer organic farms if the demand for organic food goes down.第三部分：阅读表达理解(共5题每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题所给的具体要求，完成对该问题作答。

He began his climb to achieve his dream after years of preparation. But he went up alone. He started climbing and it was becoming later and later. He did not prepare for camping, so he had to keep on climbing.Soon night fell and Johnson could not see anything. Everything was black. There was no moon, and the stars were covered by clouds. As he was climbing only about 10 feet away from the top, he slipped and fell. He could only see darkness passing at a great speed. He kept falling… He thought certainly he would die.But then Johnson felt the long rope tied to his waist (腰部) pull very hard. His body was hanging in the air. He had no other choice but to shout, “Help! Help me!”Suddenly he heard a deep voice, “What do you want me to do?”“Save me!”“Do you really think that I can save you?”“Of course.”“Then cut the rope.” However, Johnson just held tighter (更紧地) to the rope.The next day Johnson was found hanging strongly to a rope…TWO FEET OFF THE GROUNDHow much do you believe in some “rope”?

Never Give Up!D．Dare You Let “Rope” Go?Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts（烟头）and plastic bags.A group of European scientists looked into（调查）about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica. Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have a special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.However, in the end, human rubbish may only bring more harm to birds. The toxic（有毒的）chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt. Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. 9．What did the European scientists find?A．Some people help birds build their nests.B．There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.C．There is almost no bird living in Antarctica.D．Birds can help clean the environment.10．Which of the following things is NOT used by the birds to build their nests according to the passage?A．Paper cards.B．Cigarette butts.C．Plastic bags.D．Wooden boards.11．How can cigarette butts “help” birds?A．They can burn other harmful rubbish.B．They can make nests stronger.C．They can keep insects away.D．They can keep birds warm.12．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．Human rubbish may bring more harm to birds.B．The harm that the environment brings to the wild animals.C．The reason why birds like using rubbish to build their nests.D．The harmful activities that humans have done to the environment.二、其他How to Improve Your English HandwritingNow students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!13 Using paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size.Slow down. If your writing is hard to read, slow down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.14 When you hold your pencil in the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Relax yourself,and don’t hold the pencil so hard.15 Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures.Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you?A．Hold your pencil right.B．Use paper with lines.C．Draw more pictures.D．Never give up.三、完形填空Rich or poor, young or old, we all have problems. We can easily become unhappy unless we 16 our problems. 17 our problems can affect how we do things at school or at home. So how do we deal with our problems?Most of us have probably been 18 with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn’t like, or you felt they were unfair. Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendships may be lost.When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected. Have you ever seen young children playing together? But they 19 very soon, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually doesn’t 20 for long. They become good friends again. This is an important 21 for us: we can solve a problem by learning to forget.Many 22 often complain about school. They might feel they have too much work to do sometimes, or think the rules are too 23 . We must learn how to change these “problems” into “challenges”. As young adults, it is our duty to try our best to deal with the challenges with the help of our teachers.By comparing yourself with other people, you will find your problems are not so terrible. Think about Stephen Hawking, for example, a very clever scientist. He couldn’t walk 24 even speak, but he regarded his many physical problems as unimportant. And he is known as a great scientist in the world. We are probably quite healthy and smart. Let’s not worry about ourproblems. Instead, let’s face the challenges 25 . Only in this way can we live happily. 16．A．solve B．answer C．imagine D．decide 17．A．Depending on B．Trying out C．Looking for D．Worrying about 18．A．pleased B．interested C．friendly D．angry 19．A．fight B．laugh C．hug D．frighten 20．A．last B．make C．hope D．use21．A．way B．test C．class D．lesson 22．A．teachers B．students C．workers D．adults 23．A．difficult B．important C．strict D．kind24．A．and B．or C．for D．but 25．A．bravely B．angrily C．sadly D．quietly四、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式，并将答案转写到答题卡上。

2023年江苏省普通高中学业水平合格性考试模拟二英语第一部分单项选择题(共两节，满分70分)第一节阅读理解(共15小题，每小2分，满30分)What would life be like without commas(逗号)?It would be quite confusing.Take this simple sentence as an example:Let’s eat Dad!Without a comma,Dad becomes the food.Add comma,and Dad becomes a partner at dinner:Let’s eat,Dad!The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence.Here’s another example:Tom said Sarah stole the cake.Here,Sarah is the thief.But add a pair of commas,and Tom becomes the thief:Tom,said Sarah,stole the cake.The examples above clearly show that people cannot do without commas in writing.Yet, the comma came from oral speeches.Long ago,most people could not read.They listened to the news or stories told by the people who gave speeches.The comma began as something to mark the resting place in a sentence.When reading,the speakers knew where to stop and take a breath.In writing,commas are like shining red lights on the road.They require that you wait a moment before continuing.And don’t add a comma when you feel like it.There are rules that people shall not break.Learn them,and you won’t be eating anyone or making wrong changes.1．Without commas,life would be________.A．frightening B．puzzling C．relaxing D．interesting 2．The author uses two examples in the passage to________.A．tell jokes to readers B．show the importance of using commas C．tell stories to readers D．show the difficulty of using commas 3．Commas were first used to________.A．indicate a long sentence B．rewrite an unclear sentence C．continue a sentence D．mark a break in a sentence 4．According to the last paragraph,we use commas by following________.A．our feelings B．our speechesC．certain rules D．some facts5．What is the best title for the passage?A．Commas Make Sentences Clear.1B．Commas Make English Interesting.C．Commas Make Writing Easy.D．Commas Make Speeches Surprising.At5:13on the morning of April18th1906,the city of San Francisco was shaken by a terrible earthquake.A great part of the city was destroyed and a large number of buildings were burnt.The number of people who lost homes reached as many as250,000.About700 people died in the earthquake and the fires.Another earthquake shook San Francisco on October17th,1989.It was America’s second strongest earthquake and about100people were killed.It happened in the evening as people were travelling home.A wide and busy road which was built like a bridge over another road fell onto the one below.Many people were killed in their cars,but a few lucky ones were not hurt.Luckily the1989earthquake did not happen in the centre of town but about50 kilometres away.In one part of the town a great many buildings were destroyed.These buildings were over50years old,so they were not strong enough.There were a lot of fires all over the city.The electricity was cut off for several days too.Why do earthquakes happen?Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates.At San Francisco the Pacific plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American plate.The Pacific plate is moving very slowly—at5.3 centimetres a year.Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years.Then suddenly,they jump and an earthquake is felt.As a result of the movement of these plates, west America near the sea has always been a bad place for earthquakes.When the1906 earthquake happened,the Pacific plate jumped5-6metres to the north.Scientists are afraid that one day an even bigger earthquake will hit the area around San Francisco.They call it“The Big One”.However,people today are still building more houses. The population in and around San Francisco is now ten times more than it was in1906.This means that if there is another big earthquake,a great many houses and buildings will be destroyed.6．Fewer people were killed in the1989San Francisco earthquake because the earthquake happened_______.A．in the centre of the city B．in the daytime试卷第2页，共7页C．outside the city D．in the evening7．Which might be the worst earthquake in the history of the USA according to the passage? A．The1906earthquake.B．The1976earthquake.C．The1989earthquake.D．Both A and C．8．Why do earthquake happen?A．Because the surface of the earth is too thin.B．Because some plates of the earth move suddenly.C．Because the houses built on the earth are not strong.D．Because the plates are moving slowly.9．What should we do about the earthquake?A．We should learn how to predict earthquakes and stop them.B．We should stop building new houses.C．We should build strong buildings in the right places.D．We should try our best to stop earthquakes.10．What does the underlined word“one”in the second paragraph refer to? A．Bridge.B．Road.C．Car.D．Street.I’ve spent over a year in India,and in those365plus days,I’ve learned a lot about getting around Indian cities.My biggest lessons have been learned through being cheated,particularly by taxi and rickshaw(人力车)drivers,but that doesn’t mean those are bad ways to travel,as long as you know what you’re doing.Below are the best ways to get around the city of Delhi,India,and tips for how to keep from being the victim of scams(欺诈).Taking taxis is a great way to get around the city of Delhi and chances are,if you arrive in Delhi by plane,as soon as you make it through customs,you’ll be swarmed by Indian taxi drivers.At the Delhi airport,be sure to arrange for a taxi to your hotel at one of the two Delhi Traffic Police Taxi Booths.One is inside the airport,and the other is outside.The key is to make sure to go to a booth run by the police,rather than by independent taxi drivers.Rickshaws are one of my favourite ways to get around Indian cities,in part because it’s how the locals often travel.Auto-rickshaws are more common,but bicycle rickshaws are still used in Old Delhi.If you do have a chance to take a bicycle rickshaw,you should do it at least once for a unique experience that should only set you back about15rupees.Auto-rickshaw3rates around Delhi range between30and80rupees,depending on the distance.If you really want to travel around Delhi like the locals,take a public bus.Indian buses become very crowded and most do not have air conditioning.They are,however,very cheap.A bus trip won’t set you back any more

Besides showing their skills in different sports, these athletes also learned about many sides of Chinese culture. Each night inthe athletes’ village, they could experience activities such as trying on hanfu, playing Chinese chess and playing traditional Chinese music.On July 31, overseas athletes met the 6-year-old Zhi Ma, the panda who inspired the design of Rongbao—the mascot of the Games. Their excitement was obvious as most of them first met with a giant panda in person.To attract the attention of the giant pandas, many athletes also made an effort to learn how to say “come here”in the local Sichuan dialect (方言).Chinese and foreign athletes also made good friends during the games.

But these technical discussions took place against the background of a larger battle about coal, oil and gas. It means that next year’s conference in Poland is set for a major showdown (最后的决战) on the future of fossil fuels.This meeting, known as COP23, was tasked with clarifying complex operational issues around the workings (工作方式，运动方式) of the Paris Climate Agreement. One of the most important elements was the development of a process that would help countries to review and increase their promises to cut carbon. Fiji, holding the presidency of this meeting, proposed what’s being called the Talanoa Dialogue.Over the next year, a series of discussions will take place to help countries look at the promises they have made under the Paris Pact (巴黎协定).“A key part in Poland is this Talanoa Dialogue, to make sure it doesn’t result in just a talk show,” said Yamide Dagnet with the World Resources Institute. “In Poland, ministers say they will increase their actions, so that we end up with national plans that will be a much more ambitious set of climate actions.”Threatening over these discussions in Bonn was the question of coal, oil and gas. US coal and nuclear companies organised a presentation here arguing that fossil fuels should be a key part of the solution to rising temperatures.8. Where was the meeting held this year?A. In Bonn.B. In Poland.C. In Paris.9. What should be discussed in Poland next year?A. Technical problems.B. Cutting down fossil fuels.C. The Paris Climate Agreement.10.

A show review.DProfessional surfers can head over to the farming town (农业小镇) of Lemoore in southern California, which is home to the world’s first wave pool aimed at competitive surfing (竞技性的冲浪). Originally named after its founder, American surfing legend, 11-time world champion Kelly Slater, it was named WSL Surf Ranch after the World Surfing League acquired a majority stake (大股东) in 2016.In the works since 2015, the $30 million facility opened on May 5, 2018 with a two-day Founders Cup that magnetized some of the world’s best surfers and over 5,000 fans. After Slater, competing for Team USA, introduced the weekend by flying through one of the waves, 25 professional surfers—divided into five teams representing the USA, Australia, Europe, Brazil, and the rest of the world—took turns to deal with the artificial swells (人工涌浪). The fierce competition ended with Team World taking home the gold. For$9,500, amateur surfers also got a chance to test the man-made tides for an hour, on Monday, following the event.“Many were very doubtful before the event and every single one of them, having seen the wave live, couldn’t help but smile,” Shawn White, one of the lucky amateurs to ride the waves, agreed. The three-time Olympic champion said, “Man, it was incredible. I got pretty excited.”12. Why was the wave pool once named Kelly Slater?A. He founded the pool.B. He was a very famous surfer.C.
