湖北省2020届高三英语上学期阶段性检测试题

湖北省华中师范大学第一附属中学2023-2024学年高一上学期阶段性检测一英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解If you’re planning to visit Japan, it is a good idea to understand some basic customs. DON’T WALK AND CHEW GUM.Americans are always in such a hurry that we grab lunch at the drive with one hand while holding onto the steering wheel with the other.The Japanese don’t walk around while eating or drinking. This seems strange in a culture that like vending machines (自动售卖机). In fact, the Japanese will often get a snack or soda out of a vending machine and then stand there, next to the vending machine, until they’ve finished it.SURGICAL MASKSSeeing photos of people in Japan wearing surgical masks, you might wonder if surgical masks are just a fashion. Meanwhile, in America, we cough into the open air, and sneak out of restrooms without washing up.In Japan, it’s not nice to share germs (细菌). If you’re sick and you must leave your home, you put a surgical mask because that’s polite. Surgical masks are also worn out of caution — if you travel in a packed train during flu season, it’s a good idea to do so.THE MISUSE OF SOY SAUCEYou’re probably used to eating white rice with soy sauce (酱汁) all over it in American Asian restaurants, but don’t do it in Japan. Soy sauce in Japan is not meant for drowning out the subtle flavor of white rice.About YOUR SHOESWearing shoe in the house is just not something people do in Japan. You should remove your shoes immediately after entering a Japanese home and also when entering most historic buildings.1．The author is telling American tourists in Japan to ________.A．drink while walking B．eat while drivingC．eat food quickly D．drink near the vending machine 2．The Japanese consider wearing a surgical mask as ________.A．a fashion B．a dangerC．good manners D．a good idea3．When you are visiting a Japanese home, you are advised to ___________.A．get a snack B．remove your shoesC．put soy sauce over the rice D．wear a maskOne in five teens suffers from mental illness Parents of depressed (忧郁的) teens often think their child is just going through a certain stage, and don’t take the symptoms (症状) seriously. When I was 12 years old, I noticed something was not right with me. I told my mom, but she said I was just going through normal “teenage stuff”. I went on with everyday life, but was not able to function well. I felt depressed and seemed to be crying all the time. I never wanted to come out of my room or be around people. I even pushed people away who meant a lot to me.I told my mother again what was going with me. Again, she explained away my symptoms by saying my hormones (荷尔蒙) were probably just acting up, but she did agree to take me to the doctor. I knew deep down that whatever was wrong with me was more than just hormones.Parents need to take their children’s mental health seriously. Brushing it off as nothing will not make it go away. I want parents to understand that 20 percent of teens between the ages of 13 and 18 are suffering. Many of these teens feel like their voices won’t be heard if they tell their parents what they are experiencing. Parents and family members need to come together so that teens who suffer can get treatment.I was very scared to tell my mom about what I was feeling, and it made me feel worse to be told I was just being a teen and that was hormonal. I truly believe that if teens were mere comfortable talking with their parents and telling them personal things, teen suicide and mental breakdowns would decrease. Teens will get treatment, feel more positive, and be able to live a more normal life.4．How did the mother take the writer’s mental illness at first according to the text?A．Seriously.B．Nervously.C．Casually.D．Badly5．What does the underlined phrase “Brushing it off” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Cutting it out.B．Concentrating on it.C．Paying no attention to it.D．Making fun of it.6．What is a proper way for parents to deal with children’s mental illness?A．Treating their symptoms as something normal.B．Taking their children to hospital for treatment.C．Staying with their children more often.D．Leaving their children alone.7．What is the purpose of this text?A．To criticize the writer’s mum.B．To draw public attention to teenage problemsC．To introduce the writer’s suffering of teenage life.D．To persuade parents to be serious about children’s mental illness.It isn’t easy to climb the Old Man of Hoy, one of the tallest in the United Kingdom. It is even more dangerous if you happen to be a blind climber, as Jesse Dufton is. The 34-year-old was born with a rare genetic disease (遗传病) that left him with less than 20 percent of his vision (视觉), which then kept dropping over the years. He chooses to climb, because it’s better than sitting at home feeling sorry for yourself, right? Climbing is not the most dangerous thing I do on an average day; crossing the road on the way to work is far more risky than Hoy.”Dufton has been climbing mountains since childhood. As a skilled climber, his father would take him out at weekends. He was always physical then, always up for adventure. He played sports at school, though quickly grew frustrated (沮丧) with many of them. Badminton was a joke for someone like me, and even blind cricket — with a ball with a bell in it — annoyed me. “Instead he was attracted to climbing and skiing, and insists that climbing is one of the safer activities for a blind person to undertake. “True, you can’t see the handholds, or the footholds. You can’t see where the opportunities are, or where to place your hands and your gear (齿轮), so you just have to take it slowly. You search around until you can feel for something to hold onto, and then basically repeat the process over and over again. To keep calm in these situations helps.”It was Jesse himself who made a documentary happen. He told the filmmaker Alistair Lee about his pastime, believing it might be worth capturing on film. I realized my story was quite unusual,” he says, adding that he felt almost duty-bound to share it. If somebody likeme watches it, and they find it inspirational, then it wouldn’t be right for me to keep that from them, wouldn’t it?”8．What is more dangerous in Jesse Dufton’s eyes?A．Losing eyesight gradually.B．Daily routines in his life.C．Climbing the Old Man of Hoy.D．Staying at home all day.9．What’s the second paragraph mainly about?A．Dufton’s passion for climbing.B．Skills needed for climbing.C．Father’s influence on Dufton.D．The limited choice for disabled people. 10．Jesse persuaded Alistair Lee to make a documentary to _________.A．show his unique talent for climbingB．inspire more people with disabilityC．give credit to the brave climbersD．educate people about risky sports11．From the story, we may infer Jesse Dufton is _________.A．responsible and helpful B．caring and carefulC．patient and brave D．adventurous and optimisticWhat does it mean to live a good life? This question has been debated by may philosophers(哲学家). In the field of psychology (心理学), two main ideas of the good life are influential: A happy life, full of stability, enjoyment and positive emotions, and a meaningful life, full of purpose, virtue and devotion. But what if these aren’t the only choices?In recent years, the psychologically rich life has been receiving greater research attention. It is full of strong emotions, both positive and negative, and new and interesting experiences. They are, however, seldom boring or dull.In a new study, Shigehiro Oishi and his colleagues found that many people’s self described ideal lives include psychological richness. When to chose a life, however, the majority chose a happy life and a meaningful life. Even so, some people still favored the psychologically rich life.These findings suggest that while most people do struggle to be happy and have meaning and purpose in their lives, a sizable number of people are content only living a psychologically rich life. Indeed, other new research suggests that for a lot of people, theintensity (强度) of the experience matters more than only how “positive” or “negative” it was. As Oishi and his colleagues conclude, “we believe that taking the psychologically rich life seriously will deepen, broaden and enrich our understanding of well-being.”At the end of the day, there is no one acceptable path to the good life. You have to find a path that works best for you. As Nietzsche put it: “No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life. There may be countless bridges but there is one path in the world that none can walk but you. Where does it lead? Don’t ask, walk!”12．The author mentions the two main ideas of the good life to _________.A．introduce another aspect of a good lifeB．compare two different ways of lifeC．explain how to live a good lifeD．tell readers some good ways to live13．According to the passage, the psychologically rich life is _________.A．full of meaning and purposeB．nothing but different emotionsC．strong emotions and interesting experiencesD．all about being content with what you have14．Shigehiro Oishi and his colleagues hold the view that ________.A．the psychologically rich life is the best oneB．more people prefer to live a psychologically rich lifeC．there is no difference between,’ positive’ and ‘negative’ experienceD．studying psychological richness helps to understand well-being better 15．Nietzsche’s words in the last paragraph imply that __________.A．the suitable one is the best oneB．all roads lead to RomeC．God helps those who help themD．nothing is impossible for willing heart二、七选五Several studies suggest there are some very good reasons to think about ways to be kindan important part in how humans developed. In other words, they say scientific evidence suggests that we are designed to be kind.Oliver Curry is the research director at Kindlab, a non-profit organization. 17 Curry claims that “kindness is much older than religion.” “The basic reason why people are kind is that we are social animals.” he explained.18 University of London psychologist Anat Bardi studies value systems in people. In one study, researchers gave people a list of values - such as kindness, creativity, ambition, tradition, security, and seeking social justice. When asked to pick the most important, kindness won.But research shows that our bodies can also reward us for being kind. University of California Riverside psychology professor Sonja has tested this idea in many experiments over the past 20 years. In one experiment, she asked people to perform three acts of kindness for other individuals each week. She asked a different group to do three acts of self-kindness.19 The people who were kind toothers reported feeling happier and more connected to the world.20 Sonja studied a group of people with the disease multiple sclerosis (多发性硬化). She found that they felt better physically when helping others. Her research also showed that people who performed more acts of kindness had less inflammation (发炎) in their bodies.A．Other research has shown that many people prize kindness over other values.B．Research shows that kindness can be good for many speciesC．These acts could be small, like opening a door for someone.D．Its goal is to educate and urge people to choose kindness.E．Research shows that acts of kindness can improve our health.F．But it is not just emotional but also physical.G．That is why we help strangers in need.三、完形填空He came from somewhere south of Rome. One Sunday evening I found him standing in the driveway, extremely thin.“My name Tony and I mow (割) your lawn (草坪).” he said. It was hard to understandhis 21 English.

高三第一次英语质量检测试卷分析高三第一次英语质量检测试卷分析「篇一」一、整体情况分析本次考试听力为20分，笔试为130分。

本次考试的命题坚持了“贴近高考，注重语言的情景性、运用性”的试题设计原则，注重考查学生的语言基础知识积累和在语境中运用语言的能力。

试卷在选材上注重题材、体裁的多样性，文章内容贴近生活、贴近实际，具有积极的情感态度导向，完全体现了天津卷英语学科高考的命题特点。

命题从总体上讲有较好的区分度，能反映出学生的语言运用能力，对下一阶段高三的英语备考工作也有着正确的导向作用。

三、具体题型分析1、听力部分整体得分较低，原因是听力能力差，次要信息较多，学生易受干扰。

总体而言，题目较易、较浅显，听力得分率相对较高。

从主要的失分题型中，说明我们在以后的教学中不仅要进一步加强听力训练和方法指导，培养学生的预测和捕捉关键信息，以及综合理解语言信息的能力，还得夯实学生基础，提高学生的语言基本功，从而提高语言理解能力。

2、单项选择：学生对语法方面能力欠缺，其主要原因为高三学生对语法知识有些遗忘，而有些学生干脆就一直未掌握；学生尽管每天都在背词汇，但效果较差，更不能对词汇进行深层掌握。

为此，在余下的两个月时间内，我们尽量加强重点词汇的检查力度，并及时归纳总结各种词汇辨析，力求少失分。

3、完型填空：完型是考查学生在阅读理解的基础上对语篇、词汇、语法的综合运用情况。

从失分率高的题目可以看出，一方面，个别学生未真正把握整个语篇含义就做题导致失分；另一方面，大部分学生在名词和动词的词义辨析和固定搭配方面掌握仍不牢固，与单选似乎有着同样的问题，今后既要强化完形答题技巧训练又要多方面搜集两大实词的辨析与用法。

4、阅读理解：此次4篇阅读难度适中，学生在查找个别细节、目的归纳、猜测词义、推理判断题上的能力仍然较弱，原因是学生不善于利用有效的信息进行排除和合理的推断，没有掌握如何从整体上、宏观上把握文章的脉络，明确段意，理解文章中心和作者的写作意图的技巧。

He screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Jerry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could. They were so scared and did not even try to help him.Paragraph 2 At that moment, Jerry happened to pass by. He heard the screams and ran to the river as soon as possible. Seeing Frank was almost drowned, Jerry took off his clothes immediately and jumped into the water without any hesitation. He reached Frank just as he was sinking the last time. With great effort and with much danger to himself, he brought Frank to the shore in time. Jerry was happy to help his friend, though he was extremely exhausted.阅读理解【答案解析】A篇21. C。

陕西省2024-2025学年新高考高三上学期阶段性检测卷（二）英语试题一、阅读理解Future Industries: Which Ones Will Rule?As we move towards the future, it is important to consider which industries will have the greatest potential for growth and success. Here are a few of the most promising sectors:These are just a few of the many industries that are expected to see significant growth in thecoming years. By keeping an eye on these trends, investors can position themselves for success in the future.1．Which industry has been promoted by the continuous aging society?A．Technology.B．Healthcare.C．E-commerce.D．Education. 2．What is the direct reason for the increasing emphasis on renewable energy?A．Global climate change.B．The improvement of technology.C．The shortage of non-renewable resources.D．The globalization and industrial competition.3．What makes education a promising industry in the future?A．An increase in population.B．The demand for online shopping.C．The development of economy.D．Training for talents with particular skills.From the world’s last seven to a global population of more than 5,000, China spent nearly 40 years bringing back crested ibises (朱鹮) from the edge of extinction.With its typical red crest and face, as well as a long black mouth and snow-white feathers, the crested ibis is known as the “Oriental Gem” in China. They were once widespread in East Asia and Siberia until the 20th century when hunting, ecological damage, and increased human activities drove the birds to near extinction.In 1981, the entire species around the world was down to the seven crested ibises which were found only in Yangxian County, northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, and deep in the Qinling Mountains, making Qinling, a natural boundary between China’s north and south, the “Noah’s Ark (诺亚方舟) ” of the wild bird.Since 1981, the local government of Yangxian County has put forward four bans for the protection of the species, prohibiting activities including hunting in the birds' living areas, cutting down trees where they nest, using chemicals in their food-finding areas, and firing guns in their breeding (繁殖) areas. The Chinese government arranged special funds to protect the habitat of crested ibises, sealing off mountains to plant trees in the birds’ living areas. China started theartificial breeding of crested ibises in 1991 and has bred more than 400 birds in Shaanxi.Years of constant effort have brought promising results. It is estimated that there are more than 5,000 crested ibises in the world now, and about half of them live in Shaanxi. The bird’s habitat in China has risen from less than five square kilometres in 1981 to the current 15,000 km².“It is lucky that the crested ibis, an ancient bird, is still flying around,” said Zan Linsen, head of the Shaanxi Academy of Forestry. “The conservation story of crested ibises not only shows us the power of ancient life but also the necessity and urgency of ecological environment protection.”4．Why are the Qinling Mountains so important for crested ibises?A．They used to be the last habitat of crested ibises.B．They are where crested ibises were first found.C．They protect crested ibises from natural enemies.D．They are the only breeding area of crested ibises.5．What can we conclude from the fourth paragraph?A．It's legal to own hunting guns in Yangxian County.B．Crested ibises are unlikely to be bred artificially.C．The government plays a key role in saving crested ibises.D．Hunting has been the biggest threat to crested ibises.6．How does Zan Linsen feel about the conservation of crested ibises?A．Proud and ambitious.B．Relieved and happy.C．Sorry and regretful.D．Shocked and curious.7．Which could be a suitable title for the text?A．Artificial Breeding of Crested Ibises in ChinaB．Rare Animals in China: Crested IbisesC．Crested Ibises Found Again in the Qinling MountainsD．Endangered Crested Ibises Making a ComebackNot many people know the fact but dyeing textiles (染色纺织品) are a huge factor in damaging both human health and the environment. Scientists in Australia may have discovered a way to solve this problem by making changes to the cotton plant’s genes in order for it to naturallyproduce various coloured cotton.These scientists have been exploring the concept of trying gene-editing in order to change the colour of natural fibers found in the cotton plant. So far, their experiment has produced coloured cotton in a petri dish (培养皿). Scientists hope that this means they can perfect the process in order to grow the crops in the fields.Often the agriculture and fuel industries are closely examined for their influences on the environment, but the textile industry is not to be overlooked and certainly has things to feel guilty about. The textile industry contributes 10% of global carbon emissions, largely due to the rise of fast fashion, which sees 80 to 100 billion items of clothes produced annually.This creates a large amount of physical waste and also contributes to other extremely detrimental effects on the environment. Cotton is quite the thirsty crop, needing 2,700 liters of water to create only one cotton T-shirt. That places extra stress in regions that do not have a steady water supply available. And, textile dyes frequently end up in natural water systems, darkening the water and disturbing the biochemical balance.Fortunately, people’s desire to protect the environment has been growing over time and more and more people are turning to more sustainable fashion choices. Larger brands have an eye on these trends and are also promising to try to develop more water-free dyeing technologies. 8．How may scientists in Australia solve the problem caused by dyeing textiles?A．By dyeing the cotton before it is collected.B．By discovering natural plant-based textile fibers.C．By transforming the dyes into eco-friendly ones.D．By changing the cotton’s genes.9．What does the third paragraph intend to tell us?A．The rise of fast fashion is to blame for the environmental pollution.B．The environmental impact of the textile industry should be taken seriously.C．The clothing industry should be thoroughly examined.D．The carbon emissions from the textile industry are limited.10．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Harmful.B．Short-term.C．Magical.D．Decisive. 11．What might contribute to the development of dyeing technologies?A．Clothing producers’ social responsibility.B．People’s consumption concepts.C．People’s awareness of environmental protection.D．Large brands’ desire to keep pace with fashion.People have traditionally been hired based primarily on the degree they earned, the job they had, or the people they knew. Skills were not a big part of the conversation in the hiring, or in the economy overall. That’s changing. Workers better understand the need to articulate (清晰地表达) the skills they have and the skills they want. And businesses, eager to fill roles in this historically tight labour market, have started to focus on whether people have the skills to get the job done. Skills come first.We need to take advantage of this momentum (势头). Skills-first hiring needs to become the new way to connect talent to opportunity. The World Economic Forum estimates we’ll need to reskill over one billion people by 2030.Employees consider opportunities to learn and grow as the primary driver of great work culture, yet our data shows only 52% of employees feel their manager encourages the use of work time to learn new skills. This major disconnect will start to impact employers as the skills-economy continues to grow. By caring about employees’ careers, investing in their skills development, and helping them transform into new roles, companies benefit too. When leaders offer growth opportunities through internal mobility, they keep their employees nearly twice as long as their peers.A focus on upskilling needs employers to change their concept of business management. Everyone from the top down needs to understand how critical ongoing learning and upskilling is, not only from an employee’s growth perspective (角度), but also for maintaining a company’s competitive edge. The organizations that keep their employees on top of new technologies are the ones that will see success in this new world of work.Never in the history of the labour market has been a clear or reliable way to understand whether people and jobs are matched in the most efficient way. The labour market has worked from some, but skills can change that. By harnessing (利用) new data and tools that make it easy for people and companies to identify talent based on skills, along with the access to building morediversified and equitable networks, we have the ability to help fill the most in demand jobs based on what a candidate can do. This will not only create greater equity in our economy, but also greater dynamism. It will create new levels of progress and prosperity.12．What does the text mainly discuss?A．A skills-first labour market is emerging.B．The skills needed for jobs have changed.C．There comes a marked shift in business demands.D．The labour market is becoming more competitive.13．How can employers benefit from skill training according to the text?A．It helps improve the stability of the workforce.B．It develops employers’ decision-making ability.C．It is helpful in building excellent corporate culture.D．It enhances employees’ sense of responsibility.14．What is a requirement for upskilling?A．A network running on the principle of equity.B．A mentality shift at the management level.C．The cooperation between labour and management.D．A system that encourages self-improvement.15．What is the purpose of the text?A．To introduce the development of the labour market.B．To share a unique view about the economy.C．To explain why the world of work needs to put skills first.D．To analyze the importance of skills to social progress.Are worms the heroes we didn’t know we needed? Silent, slimy and wriggling (扭动), you might think that worms are good for nothing except bait (诱饵) on the end of a fishing pole.16The British naturalist Charles Darwin said that no other animal has “played such an important part in the history of the world as these lowly organised creatures”. They have lived on Earth for 600 million years and have even survived five mass extinctions. 17Earthworms literally move the earth, and this is why farmers love them. As they travel, they aerate (使透气) the soil by loosening, mixing and oxygenating it. 18 They are effectively a small but very efficient plough (犁). But it’s not just earthworms that deserve praise.In 2022, a group of scientists at the Margarita Salas Centre for Biological Research isolated enzymes (酶) found in wax worm saliva (唾液) which are plastic-eating. 19 It’s hoped that by producing these enzymes on an industry-level scale, we will have a more environmentally friendly way to reduce plastic pollution.20 Bloodworms are small sea creatures which press themselves into the mud of the ocean floor. Scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara have been studying their jaws, which are made up of 10% copper proteins (铜蛋白) and are so strong that they last the worm’s entire five-year lifespan. Because of this research, engineers may start using the jaws as inspiration for the design and manufacture of materials like concrete.So, next time you see a worm, show it a little respect. They really are changing the world! A．So, what do worms do that is so great?B．Worms have a lifespan of a few months.C．And worms are even inspiring the building industry.D．It increases the ground’s capacity to hold and empty water.E．However, there is more to the humble worm than meets the eye.F．Humans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year.G．These can break down a very common plastic that normally breaks down over many years.二、完形填空Zora woke up early on Saturday morning, 21 for her long-awaited trip to the mall with her friends.

湖北省武汉市华中师范大学第一附属中学2024-2025学年高二上学期阶段性检测（一）英语试题一、阅读理解With all the dietary information online, it can be hard to know what tips to follow. Watch out for these words and expressions.Fat Is GoodIt doesn’t matter if you are part of the fat is GOOD for you or BAD for you group, the important question to ask is the source of the fat. If it comes from a land-based animal, and is likely to be solid at room temperature, then it is saturated (饱和的) fat whereas if it comes from fish or plants, and it is likely to be liquid at room temperature, then it is unsaturated fat. All the evidence indicates that eating more unsaturated fat than saturated fat lowers your risk of dying early.Natural Sugar Is BetterThe vast majority of sugar we consume is sucrose (蔗糖). It is the white powdered stuff we cook with and is made up of glucose and fructose. How about sugar from honey? It is often marketed as natural and better for you. Actually, it just has its own distinct flavour, but is as sweet because of glucose and fructose.High-pH WaterSome people think we need to eat alkali (碱) food to maintain our blood at a pH of 7.4. But everything we eat or drink passes through the stomach, which, at a pH of 1.5, is the most acidic part of the body. It is then neutralised to a pH of 7. So, nothing we eat will change the pH of our blood.Don’t Eat Anything That Y ou Can’t PronounceWhether foods are natural or highly processed, they are all full of chemicals. Are you supposed to fear “phenylthiocarbamide”, because you can’t pronounce it? This is simply the chemical responsible for the bitter taste found in brassicas, the plants in the cabbage and mustard family.Don’t Eat Food With More Than Five Ingredients(佐料)Simple foods are not necessarily healthier for you. If I, for instance, use Chinese five spice powder in a recipe, that would count as one of the five ingredients. However, what if I added the typical components of five spice powder separately into a dish? Does that mean my recipe suddenly becomes bad because it has more than five ingredients?1．According to the passage, healthier fat ______.A．can be found in fish and plants B．comes from land-based animalsC．remains solid at room temperature D．can lower the death rate of elders2．The passage suggests that ______.A．diets can help adjust the pH of our blood B．honey sugar can do more good than sucrose C．foods with more ingredients may be as healthy D．chemicals we can recognize are safer to take in3．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To compare tips on food choices.B．To introduce different health concepts.C．To recommend fitness recipes to readers.D．To warn us of some dietarymisunderstandings.Courage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I constantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The root of “courage” is “cor,” the Latin word for heart. In the beginning, courage meant “to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart.” While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountain-climbing trip with my 15-year-old daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions to rest, she persisted until she couldn’t breathe properly.Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check out on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak.“You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter, “I was just like you when I started.But with practice and proper pace, you’ll get there too.”“Yeah, don’t let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It’s okay to admit when you’re struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it’s important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That’s how we improve and grow.”Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle.I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it’s okay to be the least experienced in a group. Courage, I’ve come to realize, has a ripple effect. Each time we choose courage, we inspire those around us to be a little braver and make the world a little better. 4．Why does the author mention the original meaning of courage?A．To question the common belief of courage.B．To argue for the true nature of courage.C．To show the changing meaning of courage.D．To compare different interpretations of courage.5．What did the two students suggest the daughter do?A．Keep to a suitable pace.B．Seek help whenever possible.C．Challenge her own limits.D．Stick with experienced climbers. 6．Which action in the mountain-climbing story is an example of true courage?A．The mother asked the girl to rest.B．The girl tried hard not to fall behind.C．The two students pointed out the group’s fault.D．The group celebrated the reach of the mountain top.7．What does the author intend to tell us?A．Kindness connects us all.B．Being a beginner takes courage.C．We don’t have to be a hero to be brave.D．With courage, everyone can be perfect.Five times stronger than steel, spider silk’s unique qualities were recognized by the Ancient Greeks—and more recently, scientists have looked at applications from medicine to engineering. Now, a Japanese startup, Spiber, has begun to change the textile industry with this remarkablematerial.The company started by making a substitute in the lab that is similar to spider silk in structure. After studying thousands of different spider species and other silk-producing life forms, Spiber successfully produced an alternative to spider silk. This breakthrough was achieved by fermenting (发酵) a mixture of water, sugar, and nutrients with special microbes to produce protein polymers (聚合物). These polymers are then made into fibers, paving the way for a range of innovative fabrics.However, shifting from lab to practical application presented challenges. In 2015, Spiber partnered with The North Face Japan to produce a limited-edition run of 50 “Moon Parka” jackets to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landings. But during the design process, the team discovered that spider silk became smaller when exposed to water, and had to transform the protein to make the fiber suitable for an outdoor jacket, which took them four years to perfect.Currently, the company uses sugarcane and corn for its fermentation process — crops that use large volumes of land and change food resources. To reduce its environmental impact, Spiber is developing a process called “biosphere circulation” that will transform deserted clothes made from natural materials like cotton into the sugars needed for fermentation.With approximately 100 billion yen ($783 million) in funding, Spiber plans to significantly speed up its production of protein polymers by the end of 2025. “Mass production will help bring the price of fibers down and allow Spiber to expand beyond the high-end designer market and thus we have the means to create solutions to enable more circular fashion,” says Higashi, head of business development at Spiber. “It’s our mission to bring those solutions to the world.”8．What breakthrough did Spiber achieve in the early research?A．It mixed various protein polymers.B．It produced a silk making machine.C．It identified different spider species.D．It created a replacement for spider silk. 9．What was the challenge in making the “Moon Parka” jackets?A．High design costs.B．Spider silk’s sensitivity to water.C．Limited raw materials.D．The partner’s unwillingness to help. 10．What can we know about Spiber’s “biosphere circulation” process?A．It will replace the current fermentation process.B．It will use recycled materials for needed sugars.C．It will promote the development of food industry.D．It will simplify the procedure of clothing production.11．What is Spiber’s plan?A．To raise more money for mass production.B．To increase the output of proteinpolymers.C．To work with other high-end fashion brands.D．To develop a wider range of expensive fibers.My father started learning French at 57, drawn by the potential benefits of bilingualism (双语能力) in delaying dementia (失智症). Now, 20 years later, he’s on his third teacher. Many people like my father have attempted to pick up a new language. But can this really boost brain health?According to experts, regularly using a new language brings cognitive (认知的) benefits. If you’re trying to recall the right words in another language, your brain is forced to inhibit your mother tongue. This process, called cognitive inhibition, helps improve your brain function. Repeating this process makes your brain more resistant to diseases like dementia. The more you challenge your brain, the better it functions, even if your brain health starts to decline.However, evidence for the benefits of learning a second language in your 60s is weaker. Research by Dr. Leo Antoniou found that older Italians who took English lessons for four months didn’t see any difference in their cognition scores, but people who didn’t saw their scores decline. Prof. Diana Smith’s 2023 studies found similar results.Researchers offered a few potential explanations for their disappointing results. One is that the participants were highly motivated volunteers, probably of high cognitive level for their age, making it hard to see any improvements. “When choosing participants, we have to be careful, are they really representative of the population?” said Dr. Judith Ware. Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short. These studies have used language lessons that “were very different in their length and frequency,” said Prof. Laura Grossman.To Dr. Antoniou, the limited findings are not entirely surprising. No one would say that learning a new language for six months would be the same as having used two languages for your entire life. But he does think that language lessons can provide cognitive benefits by beingcognitively stimulating.Perhaps more important, Prof. Grossman said, learning another language offers other potential advantages, like traveling or connecting with new communities. My father, for example, has remained pen friends with his first teacher and traveled to France numerous times.And at 76, he’s as sharp as ever.12．What happens in the process of “cognitive inhibition”?A．Memory improves.B．Brain health worsens.C．Dementia is cured.D．Native language is held back.13．Which is a possible explanation for the disappointing research results?A．The poor choice of research participants.B．The great length of the language course.C．The intervention of the first language.D．The age difference of the research subjects.14．Whose opinion does the author support by mentioning his father’s experience?A．Leo Antoniou’s.B．Diana Smith’s.C．Laura Grossman’s.D．Judith Ware’s.15．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．Is it never too late to learn a new language?B．Can learning a new language delay dementia?C．Why does my father start learning a new language?D．How does learning a new language benefit aging brain?Artificial Intelligence (AI) geolocation (互联网定位技术) solutions are changing the way researchers track and monitor wildlife, enabling more powerful conservation efforts. These systems use advanced sensors, satellite imagery, and machine learning algorithms (算法) to gather real-time data on animal movements, habitat preferences, and migration patterns. 16 Traditional tracking methods often rely on non-automatic tracking or inconvenient necklace-like systems, which may cause stress and discomfort to the animals. 17 The devices can work as tags and the camera traps can be set up remotely, which decreases human impact on wildlife.In addition, AI-powered devices collect and analyze data precisely. Through their assistance, scientists can gain insights into habitat choices and evaluate the effect of global warming on wild animal locations. 18 For example, by analyzing the collected data, conservationists can promote targeted habitat restoration efforts according to the patterns and connections they discovered with the help of AI geolocation devices.19 By monitoring animals’ behavioral changes in real-time, researchers can quickly detect signs of environmental issues. Sudden changes in an animal’s movements could indicate threats or problems. Researchers can then respond immediately, potentially saving the animal’s life.Sharing geolocation data through online platforms can also help raise awareness about protecting endangered species. 20 This help them feel more connected to the issues wildlife face in habitats. The bond promotes a sense of responsibility among individuals and encourages them to contribute to wildlife conservation efforts through various means, such as donations, volunteer work, and so on.A．This knowledge enables them to make accurate and efficient decisions.B．However, AI tracking does not require disturbing contact with the animals.C．AI monitoring needs fewer battery replacements than the traditional methods.D．The solutions have offered the following key benefits to wildlife conservation.E．Directly engaging with conservation efforts gives people a first-hand experience.F．The AI geolocation technology significantly reduces the need for massive fieldwork. G．With real-time data, the AI solutions also function as an early warning for wildlife risks.二、完形填空I have had no interest in football for as long as I can remember.
