2023届山西省三晋名校联盟高中毕业班4月阶段性测试（五）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The world is a splendid place, full of hidden and overt beauty in every corner. Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife. The grassland and acacia-dotted landscapes ofits national reserve are home to the endangered giraffe and zebra, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, ChinaChina’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan Province is known for its towering sandstone pillars (柱子). Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall,it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason. Best of all, there are plenty of beaches to go around, with over 100 private resorts and welcoming, affordable guesthouses around the Male and Ari atolls.1．What makes Samburu a haven for wildlife?A．Its landscape.B．Its location.C．Its climate.D．Its food.2．What do Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park have in common?A．They are home to gorillas.B．They have more than 350 bird species.C．They are on the World Heritage Site List.D．They are inspirations for traditional paintings.3．Which of the following suits beach-lovers?A．Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.B．Samburu.C．Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.D．The Maldives.Students at Summit Elementary in Butler, Pennsylvania, are growing more than their minds. Under the guidance of longtime teacher Angela Eyth, they’ve created a generous garden to benefit people in need at nearby Broad Street Elementary, whose neighborhood lacks fresh-produce options.The project is now two years old, and goes beyond planting and growing: Eyth and her fellow educators structure lessons in science, math and more around their garden. “The kids are in charge of everything,” Eyth says. “They’re so proud of what we’re doing here.”“When we grew cabbage my students noticed something was eating the leaves, ” Eyth recalls. “This led to an investigation into what was eating them and how to stop it: the kids analyzed the evidence they found and acted as engineers in creating various ways to keep pests(害虫) out of the cabbage beds.”She continues, “People think gardening should be separate from core subjects but it’s far from the truth. The kids’ curiosity keeps it rolling.”The kids also keep the produce rolling—so much so that with a $70,000 grant from Remake Learning/Grable Foundation, they’re building a farm stand at Broad Street Elementary that will ultimately bring fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs and more to an area of their community considered a food desert. People will be able to go there and gain the benefits of the harvest.This year’s crop included peas, beans, carrots, turnips, squash and pumpkins; plans are in place to keep expanding in the years ahead with items like Christmas trees, a sunflower patch and a pollinator garden. “It’s amazing that you start with a small idea and it can grow,” Eyth says.4．What can we know about the community near Broad Street Elementary?A．It focuses on students’ growth.B．It invites Eyth to create a garden. C．Its fresh-produce variety is limited.D．It relies on students for fresh produce. 5．How do Eyth and her colleagues help the students?A．By arranging subjects around the garden.B．By analyzing the structure of subjects. C．By deciding what to plant in the garden.D．By providing them with job opportunities.6．Why did the students conduct an investigation?A．To experience the work of engineers.B．To make the evidence more convincing. C．To find ways to plant vegetables well.D．To figure out what fed on cabbage leaves.7．Which can best describe the students at Summit Elementary in Butler?A．Energetic and healthy.B．Creative and responsible.C．Patient and strong-willed.D．Cautious and talented.A new device known as Shark Guard is being trialed which gives off a pulse to protect sharks and rays from fishing hooks (鱼钩). The data so far suggests that it has been very effective in reducing the number of sharks and stingrays caught by commercial fishing equipment.Commercial fishing is known to threaten sharks and rays worldwide. Research has found that 24 per cent of the average monthly space used by sharks around the world falls under the-footprint of distant long line fisheries. This is when hooks hang near the surface to catch fish like tuna and swordfish. A quarter of shark habitats are within active fishing zones.It is estimated that over 20,000,000 sharks are caught as bycatch every year. Stingrays are also frequently caught as bycatch. “Bycatch” refers to unwanted fish and marine creatures caught by commercial fishing equipment, and is typically discarded (丢弃) overboard either dead or dying.Shark Guard was designed by marine scientists to protect sharks and rays from fishing equipment. It is a small battery-powered device that can be fastened on the line next to a baited hook and gives off a short pulse every two seconds.Study found that the device reduced the number of blue sharks caught in a French long line tuna fishery in the Mediterranean by 91 per cent, and stingrays by 71 per cent. These arepromising numbers, although Dr. Phil Doherty, lead author of the study, said that Shark Guard should “be designed on a case-by-case basis to ensure it’s fit for purpose.”8．What is the new device used to do?A．Stop sharks being caught.B．Reduce the number of sharks. C．Confirm a scientific guess.D．Prevent commercial hunting.9．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A．The places fishing hooks hang.B．The range of commercial fishing. C．The benefits of protecting sharks.D．The harm of commercial fishing. 10．What does Phil Doherty think of the device?A．It is promising.B．It is ineffective.C．It needs improving.D．It is perfectly designed.11．What is the text?A．A diary entry.B．A news report.C．A fantasy story.D．A book review.Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. Scientists found in studies of mice that a high-salt diet increased the levels of a stress hormone by 75 per cent. Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food.The recommended salt intake for adults is less than six grams a day but most people regularly eat about nine grams. This can contribute to higher blood pressure, which increases the risks of heart attacks, strokes and dementia.While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. To study this, experts from the University of Edinburgh used mice, who ordinarily have a low-salt diet, and gave them high-salt food to reflect the typical intake of humans.They found that not only did resting stress hormone levels increase, but the mice’s hormone response to environmental stress was double that of mice that had a normal diet. Salt intake increased the activity of genes that produce the proteins in the brain which control how the body responds to stress.Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leadsto other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. Matthew Bailey, professor of Renal Physiology at the University of Edinburgh’s Centre for Cardiovascular Science, said: “We are what we eat and understanding how high-salt food changes our mental health is an important step to improving wellbeing. We know that eating too much salt damages our heart, blood vessels(血管) and kidneys. This study now tells us that high salt in our food also changes the way our brain handles stress.”12．What are the findings expected to bring about eventually?A．Manufacturers adding less salt to processed food.B．People debating the policy on public health.C．Decreased levels of stress hormones.D．Reduced amount of processed food.13．What does the underlined word “ascertained” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Ignored.B．Restored.C．Reduced.D．Confirmed.14．Which of the following may be a subject of further research?A．What policy on salt should be.B．How a high-salt intake affects blood pressure.C．How much salt intake is appropriate.D．Whether a high-salt intake causes anxiety.15．What may be a suitable little for the text?A．Most people regularly take in too much salt.B．Mental health is important to improving well being.C．Diet containing much salt increases levels of stress.D．Less than six grams of salt a day is recommended.二、七选五Science tells us that global warming is a serious issue and we’re seeing its effects all around us—extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and endangered plant and animal species going extinct on a daily basis.____16____Here are some ways you can help with inducing global warming.Use less water.It takes a lot of energy to pump, heat, and treat your water.____17____You can make changes like taking shorter showers, turning off the tap when you’re brushing your teeth,and switching to water-deficient fixtures to reduce the amount of water you use.

12.Ensuring every chilห้องสมุดไป่ตู้ equal rights to education is _____the key to the elimination of inequality across the world lies.
A.thatB.whatC.whetherD.where
【答案】D
【答案】infectious##nfectious
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：笑是最具感染力的表达方式之一。根据句意和首字母提示可知，此处填形容词infectious“感染的”，放在expressions前作定语，故填infectious。
3.S________nothing, he walked right into the trap.（根据首字母单词拼写）
【点睛】名词性从句考查的关键是连接词的选用和语序，因此，我们首先要搞清从句的性质，掌握各连接词的用法，在此基础上判断．此外，关注名词性从句用陈述语序．题干中is being accepted 是谓语动词，前面是主语从句，第一个空用that引导，因为主语从句中不缺少成分，也不需要翻译，第二个空是be动词后面的表语从句的引导词，表示"职业"，用whatever，去掉逗号中间插入的部分可知，is前的主语从句"girls can be whatever they would like to be"从意思到成分都是完整的，故选择在名词性从句中不担任成分，无意义的that，
14.________leaves the classroom last should turn off the lights.
A.WhichB.WhoC.WhicheverD.Whoever

Sadly, the doctor laid the lifeless body on the bed and then his grandmother held his body close and began whispering in his ear. Surprisingly, he came back to life in her arms.He was 5 when his father died and 2 days later, his baby sister died too. He was raised the 10th out of 12 children by his widowed (寡妇的) mother during The Great Depression. At 7 he was already helping to support his family by selling their vegetables and milk. When he was 20, he married a woman called Jean. In order to support his new family, he quit school and sold pots and pans.Life as a salesman was unpredictable and so for years, the couple struggled financially. Sometimes he could only afford a few gallons of gas, so wherever his car rolled to a stop was where he would start working door-to-door. But he maintained a positive attitude about everything.Refusing to accept defeat, he began travelling to churches, schools and clubs, sharing lessons about the power of positive thinking. When the company he worked for broke up, he turned to full-time motivational speaking, helping countless people achieve their dreams.By 1975 he had written See you at the top, a book of his most inspiring thoughts and stories. It was rejected by 30 different publishers before it was finally printed. It has now sold more than2 million copies worldwide.Zig Ziglar passed away in 2012, two days after celebrating his 66th wedding anniversary. In his 30 books that have been translated into more than 36 languages, his optimism and enthusiasm have impacted more than 250 million people around the world and continues to inspire more every day.4.

Energetic and generous.CA herd of 15 Asian elephants has been making its way North across China since March 2020, and nobody is quite sure why.The herd has covered more than 500 kilometers since they wandered out of their home in the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, located in southwestern China along its border with Laos and Myanmar. Authorities in China have tried to keep the animals away from populated areas with piles of fruit and vegetables and physical barriers. The herd was spotted last week on the outskirts (郊区) of Kunming.“One potential explanation for the elephant migration is overcrowding in the nature reserve these animals once called home,” says George, an elephant specialist at Colorado State University. Asian elephants are endangered, only around 300 surviving in China, but the population living in the reserves of the Xishuangbanna region has been growing in recent years. George says this wayward (任性的) group might have set out to find a new home with less competition for resources.“We’ve seen elephants expanding their range for decades now, as their populations increase, and they search for more food for the growing herd,” says Becky Chen, a conservation scientist at the Zoological Society of London who has studied elephant-human interactions. Other experts wonder if this is an example of a herd being misled by an inexperienced leader, or if the decision to roam was an almost random choice.Authorities have instructed residents along the route to stay inside if the elephants are nearby and avoid disturbing the herd. If the animals can’t be turned backto their former forested home, scientists and land managers may need to make provisions (准备) for the elephants to live permanently in Kunming.Chen says she hopes the situation will raise awareness of human-elephant conflict and elephant conservation. “What we have to learn is not how to solve the problem, but how to increase tolerance,” she says. “How can we use this event to let everybody pay attention to coexistence between people and animals?”8. Which is the possible reason for elephant migration?A. The population of people.B. Inhabitant loss.C. Annual migration.D. An act of a misleading head.9. What does the underlined word “roam” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Settle.B. Wander.C. Leave.D. Accompany.10. What may Chen agree with?A. It takes long to live in harmony with animals.B. It is important to reflect on how to live with animals.C. The increasing elephants threaten human’s settlement.D. The endangered elephants migrate due to human development.11. Which section does the story most likely come from in a newspaper?A. Nature.B. Health.C. Entertainment.D. Life.DIf electric bikes haven’t caught your attention yet, here’s one that might. Okapi, a Boston-based start-up, is producing a unique e-bike that bridges the gap between motorcycles and ordinary bikes.These aren’t normal bikes. If the futuristic appearance doesn’t give them away, the specs (规格) will: Okapi’s bikes have an all-electric range of up to 40 miles and a top speed of around 30 mph. Those aren’t crazy numbers, but they are more than adequate for an ordinary bike. The company’s selling its bikes for just under $3,000. That’s in line with other e-bikes’ pricing, but Okapi’s bikes look more appealing thanthe others, which try (with varying degrees of success) to look like normal bicycles.The bikes’ full suspension, hidden storage, and 1,000-watt motor all add up to a fun ride. Okapi’s design appears to be stronger and more able to handle the bumps (碰撞) than many other electric bikes, some of which appear to be modeled after old models. The main downside to Okapi’s design is that it supports a maximum of 280 pounds, which may stop some riders enjoying the bike.Okapi’s approach to the e-bike is a little different from others’.

2022-2023学年度第二学期3月份第一次质检考高二级英语科试卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

AIf you find yourself lonely on Feb.14,it's technically possible to be happy when you have Netflix.Clueless(1995)When it came out in 1995,“Clueless”was a modern movie on the classic Jane Austen novel “Emma.”Today,it's a sad,somewhat retro(怀旧的)story about a high school girl(Alicia Silver stone)who finds joy in bringing together couples around her,while remaining single and particular about who she chooses to date. She soon finds love in an unexpected place.How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)As a journalist,Andie (Hudson)in the film is assigned a special task where she has to write about her experience trying to make a man fall in love with her,followed by making him want to break up with her. The assignment goes to unexpected places when Ben(McConaughey)enters the picture.The Imitation Game(2014)Strange things happen when people fall in love with machines;it's actually happening with today’s technology. In“The Imitation Game”,which is set in the 1940s,tells the true story of Alan Turing and his team to break the German secret codes to win World War II. Although the film is largely about code breaking efforts,it also delivers on some love,both machine,and human.Frances Ha (2013)Filmed in black and white,“Frances Ha”begins with a bad breakup and is followed by the journey of Frances Halladay(Greta Gerwig)to become a professional dancer. It's a touching adventure with plenty of love along the way.1. What do we do with NetflixA. To find friends.B. To see films.C. To surf the Internet.D. To shop online.2. If you are interested in wars,which film do you think is your favouriteA. Clueless.B. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.C. The Imitation Game.D. Frances Ha.3. Whose story do you think is the most inspiring in the passageA. Alicia Silver stone's story.B. Alan Turing's story.C. Andie's story.D. Frances Halladay's story.BAn afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life,although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures,people will have a daily nap—this is fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime,when they did not sleep before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness—as in the Alzheimer's disease study—can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people,napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night,says Dr. Neill Stanley,a sleep expert.“If yo u feel sleepy during the day,you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs —it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine. It needs sleep.”The feeling we should notice is“sleepiness”,he says.“It's not tiredness,which could be more psych ological and linked to stress.”So how do you nap well The key thing,says Stanley,is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap.“When you fall asleep,you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up because that's when you wake and feel worse than you didbefore.”Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep;napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep—“Some people are better at napping than others but,”says Stanley,“a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes.”—you can set an alarm,allowing a 30-to 40-minute period for a short nap,and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon,between 2 p. m. and 4p. m.“You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep,”Stanley says. The point,he stres ses,is to get good night-time sleep,which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.4. What does an afternoon nap indicate for most peopleA. Caffeine addiction.B. Psychological stress.C. Insufficient night sleep.D. Potential physical illness.5. What is the key to a good napA. Duration. B . Surroundings.C. Health.D. Stages.6. What does the underlined word“that”in the last paragraph refer toA. A 30-to 40-minute period.B. Between 2 p. m and 4 p. mC. Between 5 and 12 minutes.D. A 20-90-minute period.7. Which of the following can be the best title for the textA. Why to Phase A NapB. When to Take A Good NapC. What to Learn From A NapD. How to Have A Successful Nap2CIn the 17th century,the Netherlands experienced a period of artistic prosperity known as the Dutch Golden Age. During this period,artists found inspiration in Northern Renaissance painting techniques,contributing to masterpieces like Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.Known as the“Mona Lisa of the North”,this painting represents the best of Dutch art and it has become one of the most beloved paintings in art history.Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer is famous for his paintings of contemporary Delft,a city in Holland where the artist was born,lived and died. Girl with a Pearl Earring is Vermeer's most well-known work of art. However,it did not attain international fameat its time of completion. That came about at the end of the 20th century,when it was featured in a special exhibition in Washington,D. C.Girl with a Pearl Earring does not show a specific person. Instead,it shows an unknown girl dressed in grand clothing,who is“like a vision coming from the darkness”and“belongs to no specific time or place”,art historian Arthur K. Wheelock explained.Vermeer is known for his ability to create shapes and forms using light rather than lines. This characteristic approach is particularly evident in Girl with a Pearl Earring. First,he would“invent”,or create an initial drawing on the canvas. Then,he made a single colored underpainting(底层色).Next,he added color. And,finally,in order to make the piece extraordinarily bright,he would apply a thin layer of glaze(釉)to certain parts of the painting.In addition to its fascinating context and appealing beauty,the piece is celebrated for the mystery that surrounds it.“When you think about Mona Lisa,she is also looking at us,but she isn't engaging—she’s sitting back in the painting,self-contained,”Tracy Chevalier,the author of The New York Times’best-selling historical novel,Girl with a Pearl Earring,points out.“While the girl with a pearl earring in the painting is right there—there is nothing between her and us. She has this magical quality of being incredibly open and yet mysterious at the same time—and that is what makes her so appeal ing.”8. What inspired the creation of the painting Girl with a Pearl EarringA. The appearance of the girl.B. Vermeer's international fame.C. Previous artists'painting skills.D. Encouragement from other artists.9. What do we know about the painting Girl with a Pearl EarringA. It is set in the artist's birthplace.B. It makes the artist famous overnight.C. It describes a particular and famous girl.D. It is regarded as a match for Mona Lisa.10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk aboutA. The subject of the painting.B. Techniques used in the painting.C. The historic value of the painting.D. The mystery behind the painting.11. How does Tracy comment on the painting Girl with a Pearl EarringA. By citing a theory.B. By giving a definition.C. By offering an example.D. By making a comparison.3DHave you ever suddenly developed an appetite from a passing glance at a freeway billboard featuring a brightly colored cheeseburger,or decided to step into a candy or ice cream store displaying a window full of lively shades and hues(色调)of sweet treats If so,you are in good company. Unless we are medically restricted or strictly dieting,we are not likely to resist inviting fare simply because we recognize the lack of nutritional value.Devina Wadhera and Elizabech D. Capaldi-Phillips in A Review of Visual Cues Associated with Food recognize the impact of sensory cues(信号)on food consumption and enjoyment,and the potential they have to promote healthy eating behavior. They cite previous research in providing some interesting examples of thevisual impact of different color schemes(方案)on taste and food enjoyment. They note that pink food on a white plate was considered sweeter and more flavorful than the same food on a black plate. Apparently,we consume with more of our senses than we realize. So given the rainbow of colors around us when faced with so many appealing food choices,is there any way to control our appetite Thankfully,some research says yes.Oliver Genschow demonstrated that when it comes to eating less colors impact consumption!They specifically researched the effect of the color red. They found that people ate fewer pretzels when using a red plate,as opposed to white or blue,and drank less from a red cup than a blue cup.They suggest that the color red reduces food and drink intake by functioning as a stop signal.But when it comes to healthy eating,instead of putting on a pair of sunglasses to block the inviting hues of food cues,consider the value of discipline. Healthy eating involves intentional choices,not mindless responses to sensory cues. And before you invest in many red tableware to slim down,remember that what goes onto those plates is much more important.12. What may be a major reason for us to refuse eye-catching foodA. The shortage of nutrition.B. The rich color of fine foods.C. The doctor's instructions.D. Advertisements everywhere.13. What might be dealt with in A Review of Visual Cues Associated with FoodA. Benefits of different color schemes.B. Interesting examples of food service.C. Potentials to promote food consumption.D. Effects of sensory cues on eating behavior.14. What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraphA. Follow the sensory response.B. Make food choices sensibly.C. Wear sunglasses to block colors.D. Avoid colorful food intentionally.15. What is the best title for the textA. How People can Control Their Appetite.B. How People are Tricked by Color Schemes.C. How Colors Impact Food Appeal and Appetite.D. How Bright Colors Make Food More Appealing.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)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。

Until 13, Parker Liautaud was an ordinary kid. That changed after he met polar explorer Robert Swan. They began an email correspondence which turned into a friendship that eventually saw the then 14-year-old invited to join a trip to the Antarctic. He said yes almost instantly. Friends and family, to whom he’d so far shown no particular interest in outdoor activities,particularly polar ones, were thrown into total confusion. He ate lots of chicken, spent a long time in the gym,and proved them wrong.The following year, Liautaud put forward a more ambitious plan: to become the youngest-ever person to go to the North Pole. He found a new partner, Doug Stoup,and through a mixture of charm and luck raised the roughly $150,000 needed for the record attempt. Then disaster struck. The early months of the year, when the two set out, were among the warmest on record. The North Pole, which is essentially a GPS location on a constantly-floating collection of ice sheets,became virtually inaccessible, surrounded by pieces of uncovered ocean.A trip which had been intended to raise awareness of melting ice caps was delayed by melting ice caps. “We would get up, battle through these difficult conditions for 150 hours, then wake up the next morning and find that we were further away from the Pole than we’d started the previous morning,”he said. After 14 days’ trying, they admitted defeat.Liautaud came home and decided to try again the next spring. Conditions were cold but perfect, and he and Stoup reached the Pole in no time. While it might not have made Liautaud the youngest North-Poler, the success did fulfil his original intention, giving him a platform to continue promotion against climate change, through his campaigning website. His view is that it’s his generation that must make the greatest effort to reduce carbon emissions. He has already contributed to research projects carried out by the International Atomic Energy Agency and will soon set up two stations to record weather data.1. How did Liautaud’s family react to his decision to go to the Antarctic?A．They made fun of it. B．They were puzzled about it.C．They turned a deaf ear to it. D．They tried to talk him out of it.2. What prevented Liautaud and Stoup from reaching the North Pole?A．The severe weather. B．The lack of ice sheets.C．The failure of equipment. D．The poor financial support.3. Why was Liautaud determined to go to the North Pole?A．To push his physical limits.B．To become an Internet celebrity.C．To support environmental protection.D．To finish a research project for his website.4. Which of the following words can best describe Liautaud as a young man?A．Demanding. B．Cooperative. C．Generous. D．Responsible.3. A few days ago, the Brooklyn Nets basketball player Ben Simmons donated a basketball court to Machang township in Southwest China’s Guizhou Province during a ceremony. Simmons has visited China several times since he was young. He has been deeply touched by the Chinese people’s warmth and friendly feelings toward him and their enthusiasm for the basketball.Impressed by the news that basketball competitions had been held in Guizhou at a village with their own “Village Basketball Association(VBA)”, Simmons de cided to donate a basketball court to the village during the Chinese New Year Basketball Competition in January. After conducting a survey, he set up the basketball court in Machang township in Gui’an New Area in the hope that it would create more opportunities for young fans to play basketball.In the mountainous village of Machang, there are no huge electronic screens or advertisements at basketball games, but they can still be thrilling thanks to local players’ love for the sport. These players later became a hit in China and even went global. A recent final competition attracted 30,000 viewers on site and more than 1 billion viewers online.Comparatively, the NBA boasts the best players in the world, top-class basketball gyms and professionally made commercials, so its exciting games draw fans around the world. NBA and the “VBA”are thousands of miles apart, but their games are equally striking, fueling thousands of fans’ enthusiasm. Both focus on a common interest of basketball fans in the U. S. and China and their shared pursuit of sports and a better life.Although Machang township lacks modern sports facilities, the local people’s love for basketball remains strong. So Simmons’ donation will surely help improve the village’s situation to a certain extent, but more importantly, it will bring people separated by the Pacfe Ocean closer through this sport.1. Why did Simmons donate a basketball court to Machang township?A．To attract global attention to the village.B．To participate in more local competitions.C．To show his passion for local people’s lifestyle.D．To encourage more young people to play basketball.2. What makes the local basketball games exciting?A．Players’ professional skill.B．The large number of viewers.C．Players’ passion f or basketball. D．Powerful promotion of the games.3. How is paragraph 4 developed?A．By giving examples. B．By making comparisons.C．By providing comments. D．By drawing conclusions.4. What is the suitable title for the text?A．China’s “VBA” Becomes a HitB．NBA Player Does Charity in Chinese VillageC．Village Players Compete in International CompetitionsD．Shared Love of Basketball Links NBA and China’s“VBA”4. Mobile learning has been proven to improve learning outcomes for students of all ages. With the expansion of online authorship(作者), publishing has become increasingly more accessible to all people. This is a positive thing for people who are looking to create content and connect with others globally. However, this access to online authorship also means that there is more content to be sorted when looking for reliable resources. Therefore, when applying mobile lessons, teaching digital literacy(素养) is essential to ensure that students obtain accurate information and are not being misled on the Internet.As technology changes, teachers must first receive updated training to model positive digital citizenship. Training for teachers is also important when educational technology is used in the classroom. Teachers who understand how these applications and websites work can assist students who may be struggling. Especially in a time of mobile learning, being able to answer students’ questions about technology clearly can be the difference between success and failure of a student. Along with teacher training, students should also receive thorough and in-depth guidance about how to use these educational technologies. If students are not taught how to use these devices and applications, they will struggle with their academics. Unfortunately, when mobile learning is the only option, some students can easily become overwhelmed, which may lead them to give up on certain technologies because they do not understand them, which can negatively impact their learning outcomes. Students need thorough digital literacy training to avoid this problem.Students don’t just need digital literacy training for class. Students also need to develop these skills to be successful in the workplace. 21st-century workplaces rely heavily on technology; even obtaining a job in the 21st-century will prove difficult without digital literacy.1. Which of the following is one benefit of students’ having digital literacy?A．Getting easy access to writers worldwide.B．Publishing content on the Internet freely.C．Effectively obtaining the exact information.D．Collecting all resources from foreign websites.2. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A．Methods of giving digital lessons.B．Students’ gains from mobile learning.C．Need for updating teaching content constantly.D．Significance of training teachers’ digital literacy.3. What does the underlined word “overwhelmed” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Helpless. B．Focused. C．Busy. D．Overjoyed.4. What does the writer want to imply by mentioning the 21st-century?A．Technology is developing at a fast speed.B．People have more employment opportunities.C．Digital literacy contributes to students’ future career.D．Students are more likely to succeed in workplaces.5. Confidence is an important element of success. However, as we grow older, we start to lose our confidence because of the life-altering changes we go through. We don’t always have as much of it as we need. 1Learn something new and interesting. If you’ve lost your confidence, learning something new and interesting can help you regain your sense of competence. Of course, the key to gaining confidence in something new is to put in the time and practice. 2 The more knowledgeable you become, the more confident you’ll feel contributing to conversations and trying new things.3 When we compare ourselves to others, we feel jealousy (嫉妒) toward them. As we experience more of these negative feelings, we also tend to feel worse about ourselves. When you find you don’t have achieved what they do, remind yourself that everyone has their own pace,and life isn’t always a competition.Surround yourself with positive and supportive people. We should pay close attention to how other people make us feel-if someone always leaves us sad and disappointed after hanging out, then it might be time to separate ways with him. 4 When we have people in our lives who love and support us unconditionally, we feel confident and secure in who we are.Don’t let perfectionism or your past get in the way. For most people, the pressure to be perfect locks them up and makes them too afraid to even try. In fact, failure isn’t always as bad as you think. 5 It’s crucial to take the first step and just do your best even if’it’s not perfect right away. Learn from past struggles and use them to move forward.6. Five boys, aged 11, were playing at Clove Lakes Park. Then they _________ an open drain(排水管)and decided to get in.

Liu Xia,the bookstore owner explained.She added that this is a cultural atmosphere that bookstores offer the area.Some residents have grown accustomed to turning to the books of the store to find answers to the troubles they face,such as operating a business or controlling tourists from urban areas.The biggest benefit of opening bookstores in villages is that it helps provide a healthy environment for children's growth. "My kids often come to the store.They love reading books here.They gain knowledge and curiosity about outside world." one villager said.The arrival of the bookstore menus a lot to the village when young residents have been leaving for urban areas in recent years.During the 2020 May Day and National Day holidays,the daily number of tourists traveling to the village reached 5，000，a record high.Visitors were attracted by the bookstore.Surrounding it,several restaurants and holds have opened.4. Which of the following best describes village branches of the LAB？______A. They are disappearing gradually.B. They feature local rural cultures.C. They could make much higher profits.D. They have set up poverty-relief foundations.5. What do we know about the branch in Shaxi？______A. It specializes in history-related books.B. It creates a public gathering space for business.C. It shares the same features with other branches.D. It helps villagers know more about the Bai people.6. What's the greatest influence of village bookshops on the local areas？______A. Attracting more people to pay a visit.B. Offering kids a healthy atmosphere.C. Helping residents to acquire knowledge.D. Encouraging the young to go to big cities.7. Which of the following can be the best title of the text？______A. LAB：A Bookstore on the RiseB. Local Culture Welcomed by TouristsC. Village Bookshops Promote Rural LifeD. Great Ambitions of Village BookstoresCTrees are symbols of hope,life and transformation.They are also increasingly labeled as a straightforward,relatively inexpensive,and best solution to climate tely,society has been putting a lot of pressure on trees to get the whole world out of the climate changeemergency.Accordingly,enthusiasm is worldwide popular among governments,businesses and individuals for ambitious projects to plant billions,even a trillion more,so as to help cut current emission （排放）. "Trees are having a bit of a moment right now," says Joe Fargione,an ecologist with The Nature Conservancy based in Minneapolis. "There's no anti-tree lobby.Trees have lots of benefits for people.Not only do they store carbon,they help provide clean air,prevent soil erosion,shade and shelter homes to reduce energy costs and give people a sense of well-being."Yet,as global eagerness for adding more trees grows,some scientists are urging caution.Before moving forward,they say,such massive tree projects must address a range of scientific,social and economic concerns.Poorly designed projects that don't address these issues could do more harm than good,the researchers say,wasting money as well as public goodwill. "There's a real feeling that forests and trees are just the idea we can use to get some unspeakable support for many,perhaps more complicated,types of landscape restoration initiatives"，says ecologist Joseph Veldmanan.The concerns are ：There's too much focus on numbers of seedlings planted,and too little time spent on how to keep the trees alive in the long term,or in working with local communities.And there's not enough emphasis on how different types of forests store very different amounts of carbon.There's too much talk about trees,and not enough about other carbon-storing ecosystems.And over the last decade,a diverse garden of tree-centric proposal has spread across the globe.That can lead to all kinds of problems,Joseph adds. "For me,the devil is in the details."8. According to Paragraph 1，what is the global fever？______A. Getting rid of the air pressure of the earth.B. Launching environment-based movements.C. Spending more time on global tree projects.D. Planting more trees to handle climate change.9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3？______A. Tree-planting projects might be wrongly used.B. There's no scientific basis for planting programs.C. Growing mere trees is just a waste of money.D. Public goodwill is surely abused to a certain degree.10. What does the underlined word "myriad" in Paragraph 4 probably mean？______A. Unique.B. Precise.C. Many.D. Reliable.11. How does the author like the tree-based idea to solve climate change？______A. Positive.B. Doubtful.C. Neutral.D. Unclear.DIn a fascinating paper published last year in Science,a team led by Andreas Nieder of the University of Tubingen in Germany showed that crows（乌鸦）- already known to be among the most intelligent of animals - are even more impressive than we knew.In fact,the evidence suggests that they are self-aware and,in an important sense,conscious （有意识的）.Crows had been observed previously to use tools to solve certain problems.Nieder's experiment showed that the birds were actively evaluating how to solve a particular problem；in effect,they were thinking it over.This ability to consciously assess a problem was associated with the cerebral cortex（大脑皮层）in the brains of humans,which birds don't have.Other studies support the idea that the bird brain can,in principle,support the development of higher intelligence. had been dismissed in the past due to the small size of birds' brains.But recent research has shown that in birds,the neurons（神经元）are smaller and more tightly-packed,which makes sense to reduce weight and makes it easier lo fly.The total number of brain cell in crows （about 1.5 billion）is about the same as that in some monkey species.But because they are more tightly-packed,the communication between the neurons seems to be better,and the overall intelligence of crows may be closer to that of gorillas（猩猩）.This research has important consequences for our understanding of the evolution of higher intelligence.First,a cerebral cortex is not needed,and there are other means to achieve the same outcome.Second,either the evolution of consciousness is very ancient tracing back to the last common ancestor of mammals and birds about 320 million years ago,or,equally interesting,consciousness arose at least twice later on,independently in mammals and birds.Both options raise the possibility that higherintelligence on other planets may not necessarily be mammal or human-like,but could very well be birdlike.12. What did Andreas Nieder's team find out about crows？______A. They are more intelligent than other animals.B. They have left people a very good impression.C. They are much cleverer than previously thought.D. They can use tools to solve certain problems.13. What does the underlined "it" in paragraph 3 refer to？______A. The idea.B. The bird brain.C. The development.D. Higher intelligence.14. Why do crows have high-level intelligence？______A. They have more tightly-packed brains.B. They have a small number of brain cells.C. Their brain neurons could communicate well.D. Their brain cells are the same with the monkeys.15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph？______A. Cerebral cortexes are necessary for the evolution of higher intelligence.B. Both mammals and birds got their intelligence from common ancestors.C. Higher intelligence has already developed separately in different species.D. Higher intelligence on other planets might be different from what we imagine.Building and supporting your team has never been more important.A key part of a positive work environment is showing gratitude to team members.
