Jim and Andy walked along the beach,looking for an adventure.They joked that some day they would find a talking fish or a mermaid(美人鱼）or a bottle with a treasure map inside.So far they had only found shells and rocks and seaweed.Today though was different.The boys felt excited.Sea crabs(螃蟹）scampered(奔跑）on the rocks,up one side and down the other.They werequick and lively.The tide didn't seem to ever wash them away. Then Jim saw a fish. It was stranded（搁浅）on the beach,just flopping(笨拙移动）around.＂Can it talk?"Andy asked.＂It looks like any other fish,"Jim said.He picked it up gently and carried it to the water.＂Do you think it will grant us any wishes?"Andy laughed.The boys watched as the silver fish sped off through the water."No.Maybe next time."Jim grinned.As the two friends walked farther down the beach they came upon a bottle.It was green with a cork （软木塞）in the mouth.＂Our luck will change.Does it have a map inside or a genie(神怪）？＂joked Andy. Andy reached down and picked up the bottle.He rubbed it.Nothing happened.He pulled on the cork. Nothing happened. He shook it. Nothing happened.“Try the cork again.I bet the genie is waiting for us to release him.Or we'll find a treasure map and have a real adventure,"Jim exclaimed.Andy tugged(用力拉）again on the cork. He wiggled(扭动）it back and forth.He twisted（旋转；扭）it around and around. Finally, it popped out(弹出）without breaking.Andy shook the bottle.Nothingcame out.Looking inside he couldn't see anything.Jim looked too and shook his head. Empty.＂It's just an old wine bottle,"Jim complained. He grabbed the bottle and tossed(扔）it back onto the sand.注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

For example, cocaine is harmful, but what makes it harmful?I can' t tell you all about drugs, but I can 31 you think about them in this 32 way. Your body is a very complicated (复杂的) machine, really a lot of chemical machinery, all of which is finally turned 33 it all works together . Special chemicals, which we call drugs, can affect it in many different ways.Some drugs are 34 when your body has a problem, as with disease-causing bacteria. Then someone may give you aspirin to keep your temperature from going too 35 _____________________________________ or some penicillin (青霉素) 36 it stops the growth of some kinds of bacteria. 37, all drugs are really poison, 38 if you take too much ,so you must always use them carefully.Why do some people take drugs like cocaine? For a little while they seem to make you feel better, or happier .But after their effects have 39 ,your body has to pay an extra 40 to get back to normal. That makes you want to get some more of the drug.Drugs like cocaine have their special effects because they act as 41 for your nervous system. They cut off some of your nerve pathways and take away some of your senses and your 42 . They make you want always more. And just a little too much can even block nerves to your heart and stop its beating.Many of us worry about the 43 around us and what pollution does to us .How about your internal (内在的) environment, and what goes on 44 you ? You control that all by yourself in what you putinto your 45 . Most drugs are pollutants. You would not want pollutants in the air and water aroundyou.

So as she was getting her things "in order," she 46 her Rabbi (法师) and had him come to her house to 47 certain aspects of her final wishes.She told him which songs she wanted sung at the conference, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in.Everything was in order and the Rabbi was preparing to leave 48 the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her."There's one more thing," she said 49 . "What' that?" "This is very important, I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."The Rabbi stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to say.“Thatsurprises you, doesn't it? "the young woman asked. "Well, to be honest, I'm 50 by the request," said the Rabbi.The young woman 51 . “ Mygrandmother once told me this story, and from then on, I havealways done so. I have also, always tried to pass along its message to those I love and those who are in need of comfort.In all my years of attending socials and dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of the main 52 were being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and say, 'Keep your fork.' It was my favorite part 53 I knew that something better was coming...like velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple __ ■ _”pie…So, I just want people to see me there in that casket (棺材)with a fork in my hand and I want them to 54 "What's with the fork?" Then I want you to tell them: "Keep your fork •••the best is yet to come.The Rabbi's eyes were filled up with tears of joy as he hugged the young woman good-bye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better grasp of 55 than he did. She had a better grasp of 56 heaven would be like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience and knowledge.She knew that something better was coming. At the funeral people were walking by the young woman's casket and they saw the cloak she was wearing and the fork 57 in her right hand. Over and over, the Rabbi heard the question "What's with the fork?" And over and over he 58 .During his message, the Rabbi told the people of the agreement he had with the young woman shortly before she died. He also told them about the fork and what it symbolized to _59_. The Rabbi told thepeople how he could not stop thinking about the _60— and told them that they probably would not beable to stop thinking about it either.He was right. So the next time you reach down for your fork, let it remind you ever so gently, that the best is yet to come.( )46. A. contracted B. contacted C. attracted D. attached( )47.

Life was better then; money seemed to come more easily. " Now, as more and more workers are rushing to the capital, it ' s too hard to e and none of us dare think about watching films, " he said.For many like Shen, the dream is earning enough to pay for their children ' s education so they jobs in the cities and say goodbye to the hardships of rural life forever. This drives them to work hard and save as much as possible.With a monthly salary of less than 500 yuan, Shen has to send money home to his little son and silver-haired parents.In Shen ' s small dormitory, which he shares with seven other (-workers, there is a well-thumbed copy of a magazine published in 1998.A recent survey by local media revealed_(显示)_______ that 80 percent of migrant workers spent their sparetime sleeping and chatting because of exhaust and a lack of income. The same survey found that 47 percent of migrant workers have to workfor more than 10 hours a day.

It seemed challenging yet caring.As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out of that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my dream“ university.

江苏省苏州中学校2023-2024学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The classic road trip is more popular than ever. Here are several places to hit the open(1) Colo-road TripsThe Colorado Tourism Office has made it easy for travelers to explore the state’s 24 Scenic Historic Byways. A new microsite includes an interactive map that enables travelers to explore options by region, interest or season. Visitors seeking inspiration can also access insider tips and side-trip suggestions within more than 150 Colo-road Trip itineraries (行程). The flexible itineraries offer suggestions for historic attractions, active adventures and highlight cultural opportunities.(2) The Bear-tooth HighwayVisitors who travel this extraordinary path experience the visual landscape of Montana, Wyoming and Yellowstone Park, home to Bear-tooth mountains. The windy, cliff-hugging 68-mile stretch introduces road explorers to one of the most diverse ecosystems accessible by auto. Amazingly beautiful, this All-American Road displays wide highlands, painted with(3) Seward Highway, AlaskaThe road that connects Anchorage to Seward is a 127-mile treasure, including natural beauty, wildlife and stories of endurance. Take a day or several to explore the region that has earned three-fold recognition as a Forest Service Scenic Byway, an Alaskan Scenic Byway and an All-American Road. The drive begins at the base of the Chugach Mountains, hugs the scenic shores of Turn-again Arm and winds through mining towns, national forests and fishing villages as you imagine what fur traders and gold prospectors (掘金者) might have experienced in the past.(4) The Lighthouse Trail, MaineTravel the 375 miles between Kittery and Calais, Maine, visit lighthouses along the way, and learn about the dangers that seagoing boats and their crew experienced along the rocky coast. Hear tales of the difficult and lonely life led by those who kept the lights burning brightly. If possible, visit the Maine Lighthouse Museum, where artifacts and hands-on exhibits for children provide an attractive break.1．What is special about each place mentioned above?A．Tourists of Colo-road Trips are offered adaptable trip plans.B．Visitors to the Bear-tooth Highway can enjoy the auto display.C．Drivers along Seward Highway can admire the treasure underground.D．The Lighthouse Trail offers chances to row seagoing boats on the sea.2．Which place may appeal to kids according to the passage?A．Colo-road Trips.B．The Bear-tooth Highway.C．Seward Highway, Alaska.D．The Lighthouse Trail, Maine.3．The best title for the passage is ____.A．Recognition for classic places B．American popular road tripsC．All-American highway journey D．Stories of adventure along road tripsAs a child, Liu Wenwen didn’t like the suona, a “loud” traditional Chinese musical instrument, also an ancestral treasure of her family that was to become her career.Liu says she felt ashamed. In the 1990s, people admired things that were modern and international. The suona was considered out of date. Her father’s family has performed with the suona for seven generations, while the tradition on her mother’s side of the family can be traced back to the early Qing Dynasty. Despite her unwillingness, she followed her parents to play the suona as early as 3 years old. Besides it, Liu has also learned traditional Chinese vocal music and dancing — skills that have improved her oral muscles and sense of rhyme, helping equip her to be a professional musician.It wasn’t until 2008 that she first found suona music beautiful. That was when she entered the Shanghai Conservatory of Music to learn the instrument more systematically from Liu Ying, a professor and top player. “The music played by the professor is just amazing, and different from what I had heard before,” she says.She loves exchanging ideas about suona playing techniques with her students. “It’s wonderful to see the younger generation carrying on this cultural tradition.” Liu Wenwen said she is pleased to see the suona regain popularity among young people, sometimes combined with jazz, opera and other art forms. This has stopped its decline in the 1990s. Her name, when mentioned on China’s social media platforms, often is followed by a video of her live performance at a concert in Sydney, Australia. Westerners were amazed by the loud, unfamiliar instrument and its colorful music. “I felt my hard work had paid off. I trained for over 20 years, probably just to win cheers and applause for traditional Chinese music on the international stage.”4．What urged Liu Wenwen to learn to play the suona?A．Career pressure.B．Social trend.C．Family tradition.D．Her professor’s performance.5．What has helped her become a professional musician?A．Her early passion for suona.B．Her exposure to vocal music and dance.C．Her learning knowledge of rhyme.D．Her performing experiences with family. 6．How did Liu begin to find suona music beautiful?A．By learning from the famous professor Liu.B．By visiting Shanghai Conservatory of Music.C．By combining suona with other music forms.D．By watching her family performing with suona.7．What is implied in the last paragraph?A．She is now working as a professor overseas.B．She appreciates the value of her performance.C．She has made a fortune after 20 years’ devotion.D．She has amazed Westerners with her hard work.Science is a process that builds upon existing theories and knowledge by continuously revising them. Every aspect of scientific knowledge can be questioned, including the general rules of thinking that appear to be most certain. So why is science trustworthy if it is always changing? If tomorrow we will no longer see the world as Newton or Einstein found it to be, why should we take seriously today’s scientific description of the world?The answer is simple: Because at any given moment of our history, this description of the world is the best we have. The fact that it can be made better can’t diminish (降低) the fact that it is a useful instrument for understanding the world.Consider a folk healer’s herbal medicine. Can we say this treatment is “scientific”? Yes, if it is proven to be effective, even if we have no idea why it works. In fact, quite a few common medications used today have their origin in folk treatments, and we are still not sure how they work. This does not imply that folk treatments are generally effective. To the contrary, many of them are not. What distinguishes scientific medicine is the readiness to seriously test a treatment and to be ready to change our minds if something is shown not to work. A research doctor in a modern hospital must be ready to change his theory if a more effective way of understanding illness, or treating it, becomes available.What makes modern science uniquely powerful is its refusal to believe that it already possesses ultimate truth. The reliability of science is based not on certainty but on a completeabsence of certainty. As John Stuart Mill wrote in “On Liberty” in 1859, “The beliefs which we have most warrant (依据) for, have no safeguard to rest on, but a standing invitation to the whole world to prove them unfounded.”8．Why does the author raise the two questions in paragraph 1?A．To add some fun.B．To express doubts.C．To introduce the topic.D．To provide background.9．What can we learn about today’s scientific description of the world?A．It can be timeless.B．It can be improved.C．It is of little value.D．It is the best at any moment. 10．What is the author’s attitude toward folk treatment?A．Dismissive.B．Objective.C．Pessimistic.D．Sympathetic. 11．What is the main idea of paragraph 4?A．It is unwise to believe in science.B．Too much uncertainty lies in science.C．The foundation of science is unfounded.D．The lack of certainty makes science credible.Though researchers have long known that adults build unconscious (无意识的) preferences over a lifetime of making choices between things that are essentially the same, the new finding that even babies engage in this phenomenon demonstrates that this way of justifying choice is intuitive (凭直觉的) and somehow fundamental to the human experience.“The act of making a choice changes how we feel about our options,” said Alex Silver, a Johns Hopkins researcher. “Even infants who are really just at the start of making choices for themselves have this preference.”The findings are published today in the journal Psychological Science. People assume they choose things that they like. But research suggests that’s sometimes backwards: we like things because we choose them. And, we dislike things that we don’t choose. “Adults make these inferences unconsciously,” said co-author Lisa Feigenson, a Johns Hopkins scientist in child development. “We justify our choice after the fact.”This makes sense for adults in a consumer culture who must make random choices every day, between everything from toothpaste brands to styles of jeans. The question was when exactly people start doing this. So they turned to babies, who don’t get many choices so, asFeigenson puts it, are “a perfect window into the origin of this tendency.”The team brought 10-to 20-month-old babies into the lab and gave them a choice of objects to play with; two equally bright and colorful soft blocks. They set them far apart, so the babies had to crawl to one or the other — a random choice. After the baby chose one of the toys, the researchers took it away and came back with a new option. The babies could then pick from the toy they didn’t play with the first time, or a brand new toy. Their choices showed they “dis-prefer the unchosen object.”To continue studying the evolution of choice in babies, the lab will next look at the idea of “choice overload.” For adults, choice is good, but too many choices can be a problem, so the lab will try to determine if that is also true for babies.12．What is people’s assumption about the act of making choices?A．They like what they choose.B．They choose what they like.C．They base choices on the fact.D．They make choices thoughtfully.13．Why were babies selected as subjects for the study?A．To help them make better choices.B．To guide them to perceive the world.C．To track the root of making random choices.D．To deepen the understanding of a consumer culture.14．What does the study on the babies show?A．They like novel objects.B．Their choices are mostly based on colors.C．Their random choices become preferences.D．They are unable to make choices for themselves.15．What will the following study focus on?A．The law of “choice overload”.B．The problem of adults’ many choices.C．Why too many choices can influence adults.D．Whether babies are troubled with many choices.二、七选五The best way to learn new skills has been widely debated. In 2008, Malcolm Gladwell published Outliers, which introduced the so-called “10,000 hours rule” that states it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert in a subject.16 Let’s break down what this involves.You’re willing to learn from people you don’t like.We tend to get annoyed with people who don’t share our view of the world. 17 That’s exactly why they offer opportunities to learn. You don’t need to buy into someone’s values about the world to learn from them and they can offer a new perspective.18Stick to one comfortable mode of learning is a bad idea. Master learners are willing to learn from lots of sources, including the following: technical dry books or manuals, YouTube or Instagram, calling or visiting people they don’t know, searching the internet and through friendships and social relationships.You can reflect on your work and think outside of the box.Master learners don’t just become good in their field. They think about what they learn in ways that aren’t focused on one topic. 19 They allow their minds to move in creative ways and connect seemingly diverse concepts and tools that other people don’t connect.You approach learning with your learning objectives in mind.I love learning about other people’s learning processes. I once watched a video made bya medical student who stopped going to lectures. She recognized that the lectures weren’t as efficient or effective as reading her own books.Master learners don’t follow someone else’s learning plan. For example, they don’t use one learning app for hundreds of lessons without exploring other options. 20 A．You’re willing to try out different thinking styles.B．You’re ready to learn through different modes and channels.C．People who are different from us will tend to approach problems differently.D．But from a psychological perspective, what makes someone a master learner?E．They develop their own learning plan based on their specific learning objectives.F．The smartest, most creative people don’t rely solely on focus for getting things done.G．To add to our learning, we’ll need to be willing to learn from people who we don’tpersonally like.三、完形填空When I was in middle school, I tried my best to be popular.
