绵阳南山中学实验学校2024届高三上学期（补习班）11月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Here are some books written by Joyce Grant.Can You Believe ItPublisher: Kids Can PressPublished in 2022, it explores in depth how real journalism is made, what false news is, and most importantly, how to spot the difference. Young kids get most of their information online. This must-read guide helps them decide which information they can trust and which they can’t.Tagged OutPublisher: Lorimer Kids and TeensPublished in 2016 and full of kid-friendly information, it’s an excellent read, especially the description of the action. Reading it makes readers feel like they’re right there watching the game and feeling what the kids feel in success and in failure. Grant reflects the attitudes and behaviors of today’s young teens and makes each of her characters real.Gabby:Drama QueenPublisher: Fitzhenry & amp; Whiteside PublishingIt was published three years later than Tagged Out. Little kid Gabby and her friend Roy are setting up a stage for their play about “Queen Gabriella”. Gabby puts some letters together to create words that will turn into various props (道具). When they finally have everything they need, they’re ready to perform for their elderly neighb or.Stiding HomePublisher: Lorimer Kids and TeensIt came out in 2018. When young Miguel’s family becomes desperate, a solution comes from Miguel’s baseball teammate, who suggests a big baseball money-raising campaign. As the team learns about the hard realities some kids face and helps them wholeheartedly, Miguel learns to trust his teammates.1、What’s the book Can You Believe It mainly about?A. Journalism.B. Family love.C. Games.D. Stage performance.2、Which book was published earliest?A. Can You Believe It.B. Tagged Out.C. Gabby: Drama Queen.D. Sliding Home.3、Who are the listed books intended for?A. Young parents.B. Young kids.C. Media journalists.D. Children’s writers.A woman held her phone tightly to her heart. She was anxious to take a picture of an impressive bunch of flowers that sat not so far away, but first she had to get through a crowd of others pushing their way to do the same. The cause of this was Bouquets to Art, one of the most popular events at the de Young Museum in San Francisco.In recent years, the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that cell phones had spoiled their experience of the exhibit. Institutions of fine art around the world face similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge attraction for museums, as well as something that upsets some of their patrons (资助人). So the de Young responded with a kind of compromise: carving out “photo free” hours during the exhibition’s six-day run.One common complaint about the effect of social media on museum culture is that people seem to be missing out on experiences because they are so busy collecting evidence of them. A study recently published in the journal Psychological Science suggests there is some truth to this. It finds that people, who keep taking photos of an exhibit and posting them on social media rather than simply observing it, have a hard time remembering what they see. But the issue is complex for the professionals running museums. Linda Butler, the de Youn g’s head of marketing and visitor experience, acknowledges that not everyone wants a museum to be “a photo-taking playland”. Yet a lot of people do and she believes that the de Young is in no position to judge one reason for buying a $28 ticket to be more reasonable than another. “If we removed social media and photography,” she says. “We would risk becoming unimportant.”4、What was the woman eager to do according to Paragraph 1?A. To get her phone.B. To escape the crowd.C. To take a photo.D. To push ahead.5、How did the de Young respond to the dilemma?A. By compromising with the government.B. By making the exhibition free of charge.C. By setting periods without photo-taking.D. By extending the free exhibition hours.6、What may the use of social media in museums bring about?A. Museum-owner’s lower profits.B. Exhibits’ damage to appearance.C. Professionals’ lack of tolerance.D. Visitors’ distraction of real focus.7、Which of the following may Linda Butler support?A. Catering to visitors.B. Reducing admission prices.C. Reserving judgement in public.D. Banning social media and photography.Vehicles on our roads are now mostly petrol and diesel (柴油) cars, but their days cannot continue for much longer. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 percent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 percent by 2024.drivers’ concerns about running out of electricity on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA.Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed greatly over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their high prices drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade picky consumers.As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery-powered planes.Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions (排放). If the US could replace 87 percent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 percent. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner.8、What does the underlined word “hurdle” in Paragraph 2 probably means?A. Aim.B. Problem.C. Result.D. Step.9、Why did many people refuse to buy the electric cars in the past?A. They were dependable.B. They were not widely promoted.C. They were expensive.D. They couldn’t travel at a high speed.10、What is the function of Paragraph 4?A. To introduce the history of electric travel.B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars.C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars.D. To describe different ways electric vehicles can be used.11、Which is the best title for this passage?A. Driving into a Cleaner FutureB. History of Electric CarsC. Problems with Petrol and Diesel CarsD. Best Means of TransportationIn recent years, China has witnessed the growth of luxury (奢侈品) brands. In this market, Chinese consumers are now the largest spenders. It’s clear that a new generation of young, materialistic people is increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image.I am a fashionist too, at least in spirit —I love to look at clothes and shoes. But I don’t understand why people spend lots of money on designer labels. When a young woman buys a handbag that costs two months of her salary, that’s a scary thing.What’s interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesn’t lead to happiness. Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we don’t suddenly become “happy” people. In fact, a series of studies by Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US, has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than those who invest it in material things. That’s because experiences are more easily combined with a person’s identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adventure affects how I think in the future. My memories become a part of me.Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through “things” are liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences.It’s natural to want to express yourself through your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that isn’t tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneakers. These people, successful people, have style. You don’t have to break the bank to send a message about who you are. Take a trip. Go out into the world. Then come back and confidently create your own signature look.12、What can we infer from the first paragraph?A. The author enjoys buying luxury brands herself.B. The author agrees to overspend money on material things.C. The author is critical of youths tying their looks to designer labels.D. The author finds it natural for fashionists to follow fashion trends.13、Leaf Van Boven’s studies showed that ______.A. people dislike those who love luxuriesB. traveling changes a person’s identity greatlyC. luxuries have a negative effect on people’s happinessD. experiences can bring people more happiness than luxuries14、What is the author’s advice on expressing oneself?A. Be selective about designer labels.B. Create your own personal unique style.C. Choose simple and fashionable styles.D. Try styles like Mark Zuckerberg’s.15、The main purpose of the article is to ______.A. prove how luxury leads to an unpleasant lifeB. tell how to express yourself through appearancesC. report on a series of studies about luxuries and happinessD. persuade readers to invest in experiences instead of luxuries二、七选五16、Here a few famous people may give you some helpful tips on how to choose the right books to read.● Read books from past eras.①_________Otherwise, you’d be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your times,” just as Albert Einstein put it. “Somebody who reads only newspapers and books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who dislikes eyeglasses,” he said.●②_________Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep you from forming a lasting impression. Seneca the Younger suggested that “you must linger (逗留) among a limited number of master thinkers, and digest their works rather than in larger quantities.”● Shop at secondhand bookstores.Virginia Woolf believed the works in secondhand bookstores have an attraction. Browsing through these books gives you the chance to run into something that traditionallibraries can’t bring to you. ③_________● Check out authors’ reading lists.American philosopher Mortimer J. Adler talked about how to choose books. He attached importance to those that other authors consider worth reading. ④_________ “Trust their tastes.” said Mortimer.● Make the final decision by yourself.⑤_________It’s you yourself who should choose what, how an d when to read. Theodore Roosevelt recommended choosing books on subjects that interest you and letting your mood guide you to your next great read.A. Interest is the best teacher.B. Great authors are great readers.C. Leave some room for older works.D. Learn more about those great authors.E. Don’t jump too quickly from book to book.F. There’s no “best books” list that everyone should follow.G. Usually they are much more selective in organizing their collections.三、完形填空（20空）In 1945, Sergeant (中士) John Gonsalves was sent back to Germany soon after thefamily as soon as possible.Gonsalves and their five sons.them well and letting them know he was looking forward to returning home.

On one-way, multiple lanes(车道) road, the right-most lane would be slowest and left-most lane is fastest.Hand SignalsThough indicators(车的指示灯) are used for the purpose of showing which direction you are going, knowing some hand signals is very important and are usually always asked in a driving test. When you want to turn right, you can put your left hand out of the window and point upward. When you want to make a left turn, you can reach your left arm out of the window and point to the left. If you want to slow down or stop, you can just point downward.School BusesYellow school buses have flashing red lights and stop signs that reach out from the driver’s side. The drivers use these warning signals when letting pupils on and off. No matter which side of the road you are traveling on, if you come upon a school bus with its lights flashing and a stop sign used, you must stop. It’s the law. Remain stopped until the lights stop flashing or the stop sign is removed.Using the HornUsing horns is not common in America. Actually they are very rarely used. You may use your horn to warn walkers or other drivers of possible trouble or to avoid accidents. Do not use your horn to express anger or complain about other drivers’ mistakes or to try to get a slow driver to move faster.41. If Freddy is asked to go to Florida in the shortest time from Missouri, on which lane in the picture below shouldhe drive his car according to Paragraph 1?A. Lane ①.B. Lane ②.C. Lane ③.D. Lane ④.42.

Use horns sometimes to warn passers-by of danger.B. Drive on before the stop sign on a school bus is removed.C. Use hand signals instead of indicators to show which direction you are going.D. Do not use warning signals in the school bus until all the pupils get on the bus.44. Who is the passage most probably written for?A. Passers-by.B. Pupils.C. Policemen.D. Drivers.BWhat will power your house in the future? Nuclear, wind, or solar power? According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US, it might be leaves – but man-made ones.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis (光合作用). Now researchers have found a way to copy this seemingly simple process.The man-made leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his partners at MIT can be seen as a special chip with catalysts (催化剂). Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell (电池), which uses those two materials to produce electricity.A man-made leaf is not a new idea. The first man-made leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and changeable for practical use. The new leaf, on the contrary, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that a man-made leaf prototype (原型) could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera’s recent discovery of several powerful, new, inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy change inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now, the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides, the machine can run in whatever water is available; that is, it doesn’t need pure water. This is important for some countries that don’t have enough pure water.With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “giving energy to the poor”, scientists believe that the new machine could be widely used in developing countries, especially in India and rural China.45. What will give power to our house in the future, according to MIT?A. Man-made leaves.B. Nuclear.C. Solar power.D. Wind.46.

A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after thechase," she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work," she says, "is to save man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans," she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!49. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to .A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame50. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, .A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers51. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they fight back because __________.A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase them52. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _________.A. people easily fall victim to elephants' attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephantsDShe turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not meanyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house.” "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her former owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.53. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie .A. felt worriedB. was angryC. ate a littleD. sat by the fire54. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she .A. saw her puppiesB. heard familiar barkingC. wanted to leave the authorD. found her way to her old home55. The passage is organized in order of .A. timeB. effectivenessC. importanceD. complexity（二）七选五Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 56. But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.57 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.58 F resh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.59 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish. 60 First, clean it and season it withyour choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10minute s if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.A. Do not buy it.B. The easiest is to steam it.C. This is how you can do it.D. It just requires a little knowledge.E. The fish will go bad within hours.F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.第二卷（非选择题）四．语法填空（每小题1.5分，共15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

But what if you're a student and don't have enough money for a trip? Don't worry. Here are some useful suggestions.●Save: This probably is the most important preparation for traveling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you'll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.●Plan ahead: Don't wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice. Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security(安全) and savings.●Do your homework: No matter where you go, research the places y ou will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.●Plan sensibly: Write down how much you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to(坚持) your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.●Travel in groups: Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places. By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.●Work as you go: Need more money to support your trip? Look for work in the places you visit.●Go off the beaten path: Tourist cites may be expensive. You may want to rethink your trip and go to a less-known area. Smaller towns can have many interesting activities and sights.●Pack necessary things: The most important things to take are not alway s clothes. Remember medicine in case you get sick and snacks in case you cannot find a cheap restaurant.●Use the Inte rnet: The net can help to save money. Some useful websites include Travelcity. com, bargains- lowest fare(票价 ) . com and economic travelcity. com.●By planning sensibly, even students can enjoy the travel. Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.21.This passage is about ________ .A.how to plan your travelB.how to travel with enough moneyC.how to make you travel interestingD.how to get life experiences22.Before your trip, the first thing you should do is _______ .A.to make a plan of the routeB.to get information from the InternetC.to save money by spending lessD.to buy tickets in advance23.The writer advises you _______.A.to share costs with any other peopleB.not to go to well-known placesC.not to visit dangerous placesD.to buy anything you want to buyBFor years, business people in Western Europe were worried. They knew they could not compete against business from the U. S. The United States is much larger and had many more resources than any Western European country.Some European people realized that the European nations need to join together to help each other. If they could forget their language differences and the differences in customs, they might become strong competition against other countries.In 1958, six of the European countries—Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Germany and Italy got together and decided to cooperate(合作). They called their group the European Economic Community, or the Common Market. These countries agreed to join their resources together.Within a few years, the European Economic Community had worked so well that its members were more prosperous(繁荣) than many other European nations. Soon, other nations began to realize the advantages of the Common Market. Today the Common Market includes most of the important countries in Western Europe. It is helping Western Europe to again take its place as a leader among the industrial nations of the world.24.From the passage we know the U. S. is much richer than _____________ in resources.A.any other Western European countriesB.any other country in Western EuropeC.any country in Western EuropeD.every country in Europe25.The members of the European Economic Community have developed fast because they __________.A.share their resources and produce more goodsB.can again take the place as a leaderC.forget the differences in their languages and customsD.have become strong competition against the U. S.26.Which statement is true?A.The Common Market is only a political association(联盟).B.The Common Market is an economic and political association.C.The Common Market is only an economic association.D.The Common Market is neither an economic association nor a political one.27.In order to _______________ the Western European countries decided to cooperate.A.join together to found a united countryB.help each other to smooth away the differences in customsC.work and act together for a common purposeD.fight against the U.S.CIn the office of the German prime minister Angela Merkel, there is a picture of Catherine the Great, the legendary(传奇的) Russian Empress. When asked why she has the picture, Merkel says, “She was a strong woman”. Many say the same of Merkel.The most powerful woman in the world, according to US Forbes magazine, was in China last week. She came to discuss trade and environmental issues with China’s top leaders. Germany’s first woman leader is known as a brave and practical statesman(政治家).Even since her time at school, she had the habit of getting everything in order. Every day before doing her homework she would clean the desk and think about what to do next. “I prefer a long time for full preparations to make my decision. But once I decide, I will stand up for what I believe, ”Merkel said.Perhaps it was good habits that helped her do well in her studies. At 32, she got a doctor degree in physics and then she worked as a researcher.However, the life of a scholar couldn’t put off her love of politics. While working in labs, Merkel took time off to read political books and at last joined a political p arty. “Her calmness helped her stand out in the party. She could always find a way out while others felt hopeless, ”said one of her old friends.In her first big political job as Minister for the Environment in 1994, her scientific background proved very useful. In 2005 she became Germany’s youngest prime minister since the second World War.Now half way through her four-year term, the 53-year-old woman has made a name for herself both in Germany and abroad. At the EU summit(欧盟峰会) in 2005 when France quarreled with Britain over theEU budget(预算), some people believed the EU was close to breaking down. But Merkel didn’t give up. She shuttled(穿梭)between the heads of the two powers and had them reached an agreement.“Strength comes from composure(镇定)and courage. Many people say I am a strong woman. But I would rather say I have perseverance, ”said Merkel.28.Why does Merkel put a picture of Catherine the Great on the wall of her office?A.Because Catherine the Great is beautiful.B.Because Merkel wants to be a strong woman too.C.Because Merkel likes the drawing skill of it.D.Because it is very expensive.29.What is the correct order of the following events?a. became the German Chancellorb. got a doctorate in physics and then she worked as a researcherc. joined a political partyd. took part in the EU summite. worked as Minister for the EnvironmentA.bcadeB.cbdaeC.bceadD.cbaed30.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A.Merkel usually hurries to make a decision when facing difficulties.B.At the EU summit in 2005, the relationship between French and Britain was in tension.C.Merkel is a well-known leader all over the world.D.She is outstanding because of her calmness.31.What is the best title for the passage?A.An excellent lecturerB.Germany’s iron ladyC.The change of a scholarD.The youngest chancellorDEvery week in China, millions of people will sit in front of their TVs watching teenagers compete for the title Character Hero, which is a Chinese-style spelling bee(拼写大赛). In this challenge, young competitors must write Chinese characters by hand. To prepare for the competition, the competitors usually spend months studying dictionaries.Perhaps the show’s popula rity should not be a surprise. Along with gunpowder and paper, many Chinese people consider the creation of Chinese calligraphy(书法)to be one of their primary contributions to civilization. Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without computerized help. Software on smart phones and computers allows users to type in the basic sound of the word using the Latin alphabet. The correct character is chosen from a list. The result? It’s possible to recogn ize characters without remembering how to write them.But there’s still hope for the paint brush. China’s Education Ministry wants children to spend more time learning how to write.In one Beijing primary school we visited, students practice calligraphy every day inside a specially decorated classroom with traditional Chinese paintings hanging on the walls. Soft music plays as a group of six-year-olds dip brush pens into black ink. They look up at the blackboard often to study their teacher’s examples before carefully attempting to reproduce those characters on thin rice paper. “If adults can survive without using handwriting, why bother to teach it now?” we ask the calligraphy teacher, Shen Bin. “The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,” she reasons. “Students must learn now so they don’t forget when they grow up.” says the teacher.32.Which of the following is closest in meaning with the underlined sentence is paragraph 2?A.Ever Chinese can write Chinese characters easily, especially with computersB.Only with the help of computers can some Chinese people write Chinese charactersC.Despite the help of computers, Chinese people have forgotten how to writeputers are the only means to rely on to write Chinese characters for many people33.What can we learn about the Character Hero?A.It’s open to people of all ages and all walks.B.It’s the most-viewed TV programs in China.C.It aims to spread Chinese culture to the world.D.It draws great public attention across the country.34.Why are Chinese people forgetting how to write the characters?A.Chinese people don’t refer to dictionaries very often.B.Chinese people no longer use brush pens or practice calligraphy.C.Chinese people are using the Latin alphabet instead of the characters.D.Chinese people needn’t write by hand as often with the help of technology.35.According to Shen Bin, being able to write characters by hand is _______.A.necessary for adults to survive in ChinaB.a requirement made by the Education MinistryC.helpful to keep Chinese tradition and culture aliveD.an ability to be developed only when you are studentsE根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

河北省沧州市三县联考2024届高三上学期11月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Famous People Who Begin With DifficultiesOprah WinfreyProbably having one of the most famous success stories, Oprah was born into a poor family in Mississippi, raised by a single mother living on welfare. She was physically, and mentally abused during her childhood. Despite her initial struggles as a young girl, she turned herself into one of the most successful talk show hosts of our time.Jim CarreyJim Carrey has been the star of some of the most successful movies of all time. But Carrey grew up extremely poor in Canada. When he was a teenager, his family took security jobs in a factory to help pay the bills. And during his first stand-up comedy performance, he was booed off (喝倒彩) the stage. Not shortly after, he made it big on In Living Color and then went on to star in Dumb & Dumber, The Mask, and Ace Ventura in the same year!James DysonIf you thought Thomas Edison’s failures were bad, let me in troduce you to James Dyson, the famous inventor of the Dyson vacuums (真空吸尘器) you see all over the television. Dyson developed over 5,000 failed prototypes (原型) before finding the bagless vacuum brand. Not only that, he put his entire savings account into his prototypes over fifteen years! Luckily, the bagless vacuum worked.Stephen KingBefore Stephen King became known as a great living writer—having written over 60 novels, many of which have been adapted for film and television—King was rejected over and over again. In his memoir, On Writing, King describes how he used to post his rejection letters on the wall for inspiration. His first novel, Carrie, was rejected 30 times.1．What do Oprah and Jim have in common?A．They were abused by parents. B．They grew up in poor families.C．They were hired as comedians. D．They found jobs in a factory.2．What did James Dyson do?A．He repaired the failed prototypes. B．He developed over 5,000 brands.C．He put all efforts into marketing.

But that all changed in 2014 when one day her son came home from school and handed her a flier (传单), saying that his soccer coach had asked him to deliver it to her. “I’m reading it... like ‘Wait, Jamaica has a women’s football team? Where did this come from?’” she said.Six years earlier, in 2008, underfunding had led to the Jamaican Football Federation (JFF) disbanding the women’s national team program. The flier Marley’s son brought home was a fundraising request from the JFF to help restart the program. Marley got to work almost immediately, calling the JFF the following morning to ask what it needed.situation was. From travel and nutrition to accommodation and training camps, every area of the national team’s setup was in need of funding.A skilled musician and multiple Grammy award-winning artist, Marley put her considerable musical talents to work. “My family came together with me. We recorded a song Strike Hard to raise funds,” she s aid.Her efforts—and the work of countless others who were equally as committed to the cause—paid off as the women’s national team became the first Caribbean country to qualify for the Women’s World Cup.Marley’s work has helped not only improve standards and conditions for players, but also shift the country’s attitude towards the women’s national team. “These girls have been toldfor a long time that women in sports, especially football in Jamaica, really weren’t that important,” Marley said. “Nobody wants to give us brand deals because it’s the female team. It’s so good now to see how all of that has changed dramatically, not just for our women, but around the world... and that makes me excited.”4．How did Marley probably feel while reading the flier?A．Astonished. B．Disappointed. C．Grateful. D．Regretful.5．Why did the women’s national team of Jamaica stop operating in 2008?A．Its coaches left the team. B．Its players were unskilled.C．It failed the football fans.

D．Unidentifiable.A sandstone slab (石板) and other stone tools unearthed in Vietnam give insight into how curry (咖喱) was made and reveal that curry was eaten in the region at least 2,000 years ago.The sandstone slab, buried 2 meters below the surface, was dug up in 2018 at Oc Eo in southern Vietnam. The site was once an overseas trading center of an ancient Southeast Asian kingdom known as Funan, according to a new study.“Preparing curry involves not only a diverse range of seasoning but also the use of grinding (研磨) tools, considerable time, and human effort,” said study author Dr. Hsiao chun Hung. “Remarkably, even individuals residing outside of India nearly 2,000 years ago expressed a strong desire to enjoy the flavors of curry, as evidenced by their careful preparations.”Hung and a team of researchers analyzed microscopic remains known as starch grains—tiny structures found within plant cells that can be preserved over long periods—that they found on the grinding tools.“Nowadays, preparing curry in Vietnam has become much simpler for most families due to the widespread availability of bagged curry in supermarkets. However, it is interesting to note that the curry recipe used today has not varied significantly from the ancient times,” said study co-author Dr. Khanh Trung Kien Nguyen. Nguyen added that the team planned to recreate the 2,000-year-old curry based on the microscopic remains found at the site.People were likely enjoying curry in India about 4,000 years ago. Some of the components recovered at Oc Eo are similar to those found in Indian curries, while other components are more distinctively Southeast Asian. The new study concluded that curry recipes arrived in Southeast Asia with South Asian traders as contact between the regions increased during the early centuries of the first millennium.8．What is the sandstone slab used to do according to the text?A．Store grains. B．Carve tools. C．Make curry. D．Keep time.9．What did Dr. Hsiao-chun Hung think of preparing curry in the past?A．It was a complex process. B．It differed from one another.C．It demanded little effort. D．It was environment-friendly.10．What can we infer about the ancient curry recipes?A．They restricted regional trade. B．They were mainly consumed in Vietnam. C．They linked various cultures. D．They were first favored by Southeast Asians. 11．What is the text mainly about?A．The unknown stories of a historical site. B．The findings of unearthed stone tools. C．An introduction to a cooking course. D．An unforgettable family experience.Ocean temperature extremes are now normal, a new study reports. It has analyzed ocean surface temperatures for the past 150 years. It reveals that by 2019, 57 percent of the ocean’s surface was warming to temperatures rarely seen 100 years ago.Ecologists wanted to learn how often modern extreme heat events occur. They also wanted to see how long they last. Kisei Tanaka was one of those ecologists. He now works for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Honolulu, Hawaii. Tanaka teamed up with Kyle Van Houtan, who works at the Loggerhead Marinelife Center. The two analyzed monthly sea surface temperatures collected from 1870 through 2019. Then they mapped where and when extreme heat events had shown up, decade by decade.By looking at monthly extremes instead of annual averages, the two found that over time, more and more patches (区域) of water were reaching extreme temperatures. Then, in 2014, the entire ocean hit a point of no return, Van Houtan says.Heat waves harm ocean ecosystems. They can lead seabirds to starve... And animals—from fish and whales to turtles—may have to swim long distances in search of comfortable temperatures.In May 2020, NOAA announced that it was updating what climates it now considered “normal”. These values are what the agency uses to put daily weather events in a histori cal context. The average values from 1991 to 2020 are now higher than those from 1981 to 2010, NOAA found.Van Houtan says his new study shows extreme ocean warming is now the norm. Much discussion on climate change, he notes, has been about future events, and whether or not they might happen. But what the emerging data make clear, he says, is that extreme heat became common in our ocean in 2014. It’s a documented historical fact—not a future possibility. 12．Why did the ecologists conduct the research?A．To prove what they had forecast. B．To recognize the value of the data.C．To update readers on newfound species. D．To find out the trend of ocean record heat. 13．Where can you find the harmful effect of global ocean warming?A．In paragraph 3. B．In paragraph 4. C．In paragraph 5. D．In paragraph 6. 14．What does Van Houtan want to stress at last?A．People’s lifestyle will be greatly affected. B．It is a must to discuss the climate change. C．Scientists must focus on historical events. D．Ocean heat extremes are the new normal. 15．In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A．Nature. B．Travel. C．Business. D．History.二、七选五16．Few sights fill you with nostalgia (怀旧) like the fireflies dancing at night.①_______Their populations are declining around the world as the threats against them are increasing. Sara Lewis, an expert who studies the insects, offers tips on what you can do to ensure that fireflies will continue to light up your backyard.Create a firefly habitat②_______. With about 2,000 different species of fireflies, there’s a wide variety of environments in which they thrive (繁衍) —including wetlands, forests, and even city parks—which is why some species are more threatened than others. “You can recreate those conditions in your own backyard simply by leaving some leaf litter around the edges of your property,” Lewis says. “That’s a good microhabitat for fireflies.”③_______Flashing lights are an important part in fireflies life. As the sun sets, male fireflies move around while flashing their lights to signal their interest. If a nearby female is interested, she flashes back from her position to the ground, and the males fly down to find her. “All of that has to happen for the next generation to survive,” says Lewis. “However, light pollution makes those scenes much harder to see. It’s like cutting n phone line. It really stops the romance.④_______. You can draw your curtains shut at night and turn off the lights completely when possible.”Stop using pesticides (杀虫剂)Using pesticides in your yard also poses an existential threat to fireflies, which are insects after all.⑤_______.

He quickly fell in love with the island's clean,pure beauty.He first purchased a small resort there, Caneel Bay. He also purchased more than 2,000 hectares of the island and donated it to the government.That donation created the U.S.Virgin Islands National Park.It was officially opened as a national park on December 1,1956.How to get to the parkThe only way to reach the park is by boat.Some people arrive on their own sailboats.Others come in on large cruise ships.Visitors also arrive on water taxis from the island of St.Thomas.What to do at the parkFrom the tropical hills to the blue waters there are many things to do at the Virgin Islands National,Park.Visitors enjoy fishing,camping,sailing,scuba diving, snorkeling (浮潜),and bird watching.Of all of the park's beaches,Trunk Bay Beach is said to be the most striking.Below the clear blue water is a 200-meter snorkeling path. Hawksnest Beach is also a popular place for snorkeling.Near the shore are three small reefs of Elkhorn Coral.The Elkhorn Coral gets its name from its shape.The reef looks similar to the huge horns(角)of an animal called elk.It is a very rare kind of reef.Scientists say it is in danger of becoming extinct.The Virgin Islands National Park is often called America's paradise.It protects St. John's pristine nature,and preserves the record of human history in the Caribbean.Don't hesitate!

Instead, they will remain at the International Space Station (ISS) for the rest of the year and will return in February aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.their empty seats and blue spacesuits along with some old station equipment.After Nasa’s space shuttles were retired more than a decade ago, Nasa hired Boeing and SpaceX for orbital (轨道的) taxi service. Boeing ran into so many problems on its first test flight with no one onboard in 2019 that it had to repeat it. The 2022 do-over uncovered even more flaws and the repair bill topped $1.5bn.The Starliner finally blasted into space on 5 June from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station after unsuccessful launches on 6 May and 1 June. On the first launch attempt,a problem was found with a valve (阀门) on the second stage,or upper portion, of the rocket. On the second,a computer tripped an automatic hold just three minutes and 50 seconds from liftoff. That was later attributed to a single ground power supply fault within one of the launch control computers.Even after it successfully launched,helium leaks continued to trouble the spacecraft. As the Starliner approached the ISS, two leaks were detected but Nasa determined the spacecraft remained stable. What started as an eight-day mission dragged on for three months after the leaks and faulty thrusters raised safety concerns.However, Nasa and Boeing officials insisted that the astronauts were not trapped and that the technical difficulties did not threaten the mission. “We’ll come home when we’re ready,” Steve Stich, Nasa’s commercial crew program manager, said in the press conference in July.4. What does the underlined word “marred” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Underwent.B. Stimulated.C. Facilitated.D. Blocked.5. What do we know about Boeing’s spacecraft launches?A. They were filled with delays and setbacks.B. Starliner’s initial launch went smoothly.C. The 2019 manned spaceflight was a failureD. Reasons of the problems were still unidentified.6. Why didn’t the two astronauts come back to Earth on time?A. Because the project went over the original budget.B. Because they were both in serious health conditions.C. Because it was dangerous to take the Starliner then.D. Because Nasa officials failed to reach an agreement.7. What can be implied according to the last two paragraphs?A. The two astronauts would come back soon.B. Officials considered the situation within control.C. Nasa officials were pessimistic and pressed.D. The mission would be completed in 3 months.CActor Alicia Silverstone worried fans on social media recently. While on a trip to England, she posted a TikTok video of herself tasting a kind of poisonous berries she found along a sidewalk. Silverstone, who appeared in the 1995 movie Clueless, said she thought the fruit was a tomato. But when she bit into it and found that it had an unusual taste, she realized that it was not the common food.Plant expert, Jessica Damiano, recently wrote about poisonous plants that look like common foods for the Associated Press. She said the fruit that looked like a tomato appears to have been a Jerusalem cherry.Often sold as a houseplant, all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous.The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says the plant is not only harmful to humans but also to dogs, cats and horses.Eating large amounts can be deadly. Silverstone was lucky because she did not swallow the berries. She was also lucky because the berries were reddish orange, which meant they were ripe. While all parts of the Jerusalem cherry are poisonous, the plant’s unripe berries can be especially dangerous.They can cause problems with the central nervous and gastrointestinal (肠胃的) systems.The Jerusalem cherry is not the only toxic plant that looks like a safe one.The poisonous Carolina horsenettle fruit also looks like a tomato. It is also known as devil’s potato to add to the confusion.The Virginia creeper fruit also looks like blueberries, and it can be deadly if eaten.Wild parsnip has flowers like a carrot and leaves like parsley (欧芹). Simply touching it can cause a skin problem. Creeping buttercup looks like flat-leaf parsley. It can cause severe stomach pain,vomiting (呕吐) and heart problems. And Canadian moonseed can be confused with wild grape. However, its taste is so bitter that you would likely spit it out before swallowing it. This is a good thing because eating it can lead to death.If you think you have swallowed a toxic plant by mistake, contact a poison control center in your area or your doctor immediately. There is additional information on the website .Damiano advises using common sense with plants you find in the wild. If you are not completely sure that something is food, do not eat it.8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To present the author’s argument.B. To introduce the topic of the article.C. To raise the public’s attention of wild plants.D. To popularize the knowledge of medical science.9. Why was Silverstone thought to be fortunate?A. The berries she had a bite were ripe.B. She found the fruit she ate was a tomato.C. She had a good knowledge of wild plants.D. The amount of the berries she consumed was large.10. According to the description,what plants can be most harmful to people?A. Carolina horsenettle and wild parsnip.B Virginia creeper and creeping buttercup..C. Wild parsnip and Canadian moonseed.D. Canadian moonseed and Virginia creeper.11. What may be the suitable measure if someone mistakenly swallows a poisonous plant?A. Spitting it out as quickly as possible.B. Making an appointment with their doctor.C. Getting in touch with the local authority instantly.D. Searching for the relevant information on the Internet.DSuperhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life. When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures, computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren’t close to mastering:mind reading.We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals,desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own.If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds.In psychology, the ability to infer another’s mental state is referred to as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity develops at a very young age. How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear, though.One of the main challenges is context. For instance, if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply “it’s raining”, they can quickly conclude the answer is no. But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running, weather and human preferences.Besides, whether humans or AI, the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one’s own learning process. Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind.In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think.But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind. Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas. While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI,plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with AI.It is important to remember, though, that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots. It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines.Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But along the way thinking about other people and other agents, we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.12. According to the passage,which of the following contexts can AI understand well?A. When asked where an object is, a naughty kid points in the wrong direction.B. When a teacher asks for a boy’s homework,he answers “my dog ate it” .C. When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner, you reply “a sore throat” .D. When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health, the kid drinks it up.13. Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind?A. Humans’ theory of mind is far from perfect.B. Humans limit AI’s theory of mind to an extent.C. AI’s theory of mind development has been totally decoded.D. Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI.14. What is the author’s attitude toward truly self-aware machines?A. AmbiguousB. Conservative.C. Skeptical.D. Approving.15. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. AI’s Theory of Mind Will Define Our FutureB. AI with Its Own Theory of Mind Is ExpectedC. AI’s Theory of Mind — a Blessing or Suffering to HumansD.
