2022-2023学年四川省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷一、阅读理解On a rainy afternoon, maybe one of the following books will keep you company leisurely, allowing you to spend your time alone as well as stepping into a different world.Don’t Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets,by Patricio PronIn April 1945, Italy, a writer disappeared at a conference and was found dead at another place. Thirty years later, a young man interviewed survivors from the conference, trying to uncover the truth about what happened and its consequences. This novel, by a well-known Argentine writer, explores art, crime and politics.When Breath Becomes Air, by Paul KalanithiAt thirty-six, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient. This autobiography finds hope and beauty in the face of death as Kalanithi attempts to answer the question “What makes a life worth living?”.To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper LeeSet in a small Alabama town in the 1930s, the story focuses on honest, highly respected lawyer Atticus Finch who puts his career on the line when he agrees to represent Tom Robinson, a black man accused of committing a crime.Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) story by Bess Kalb Bess Kalb saved every voicemail from her grandmother Bobby Bell who died at ninety. In this book, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as loving as it ever was in life and brings us several generations of brave women. They include Bobby’s mother, who traveled alone from Belarus to America to survive, and Bess’s mother, who always fought against convention.1．Which book is about the author’s own story?A．To Kill a Mockingbird.B．When Breath Becomes Air.C．Don’t Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets.D．Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) story.2．Who is the main character in the last novel?A．Bobby Bell. B．Bess Kalb. C．Bess’s mother. D．Bobby’s mother.3．In which section of a newspaper can we read the text? A．Advertisement. B．Opinion. C．Lifestyle. D．Science.My wife and I were at a crowded grocery store not long ago. It was a weekday evening, cold and wet and tense. People were carelessly blocking aisles, complaining and cutting one another off with their carts. At one point, two women quarreled for several minutes in the freezer section.Things got worse at the checkout line. The cashier scanned a man's discount card, but he misread the savings on her screen as an additional charge. He decided she was acting on purpose and began to argue.Other customers looked away as the cashier tried to reason with him. She called a manager, who took him to customer service. Shaken, she moved to the next customer in line.We’ve all witnessed uncomfortable scenes like this in public places. My reaction when I see them is both personal and professional. I am a data analyst and sociologist who studies how and why people interact with one another--or why they choose not to. To me, the grocery scene was another example of how our trust in others has disappeared. But it was also a teachable moment on how we can rebuild our faith — starting with just one person.Therefore, my wife and I reached the disturbed cashier. I grabbed a bottle of water from a nearby cooler and handed it to her. We learned her name was Beth.“We felt bad about how that man treated you and wanted to buy this for you.”I said.Beth’s face lit up, and we talked as she scanned our items. She told us she had been working that evening through severe foot pain and would be having surgery later that week. We wished her well in her recovery, and she thanked us as we left.That is the balancing act, the moment of countering social and emotional pain with healing, that will add up to restore trust across the United States.You can start that pattern in someone else's life , even in a place as ordinary as the neighborhood grocery store.4．By describing the arguments, the author wants to show________.A．the job as a cashier is not easy. B．people in the U.S are unfriendly. C．arguments in public are very common. D．confidence in each other has worn off.5．How did Beth probably feel when the couple gave her a bottle of water? A．Sad and regretful. B．Sorry and embarrassed. C．Cheerful and rewarded. D．Grateful and relieved.6．What's author's attitude towards Americans' regaining trust? A．Doubtful. B．Optimistic. C．Uncaring D．Cautious 7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Miserable Cashier. B．A Helping Hand.C．Learning to Trust Again. D．Starting a new life.Dolphins are universally regarded as some of the cleverest creatures in the world. In captivity(圈养), they can be trained to complete complex tasks such as jumping through hoops and somersaulting through the air.But their intelligence doesn’t stop there. In a recent study of cetaceans(鲸目动物)—a group of animals that includes dolphins and whales—researchers created a list of intelligent behaviors observed in 90 different cetacean species, reported the Guardian. For example, the smartest cetaceans hunt in groups, share knowledge through mimicry(模仿) and even care for each other’s children. Some even consider their behavior to be human-like.“There is the saying that ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ seems to be true for both whales and humans,” Michael Muthukrishna of the London School of Economics, co-author of the study, told the Guardian.However, cetaceans don’t just use their brain power for survival. The study suggests that dolphins might even gossip. That’s because some species greet each other with specific whistles, just as humans greet each other by name, the Guardian reported. Sometimes, a group of dolphins whistles the “name” of a dolphin that isn’t there. Could they be speaking about their “friend” behindits back?For the researchers, dolphin small talk is a big deal. As they found that the most social cetaceans also have the largest brains, they argue that cetacean intelligence developed to meet the demands of complex social groups.Known as the “cultural brain hypothesis(假设),” it had only been used to explain the intelligence of humans and other primates(灵长目动物). The new study aimed to find a common pathway for the evolution of intelligence among biologically different species.“It is interesting to think that whale and human brains are different in their structure but have brought us to the same patterns in behavior,” Luke Rendell, a biologist at the University of St Andrews, told the Guardian.Indeed, we still have a lot to learn about our intelligent ocean-dwelling neighbors. “We don’t have to look at other planets to look for aliens,”Muthukrishna told the Guardian, “because we know that underwater there are these amazing species with so many parallels to us in their complex behaviors.”8．The possible meaning of the underlined word “gossip” in Para. 4 is ________. A．singing B．chatting C．greeting D．arguing 9．The recent study was intended to ________.A．learn more about intelligent creatures of the seaB．explain the intelligence of humans and cetaceansC．create a list of intelligent behaviors of different cetacean species D．see whether the intelligence of different species evolved in the same way 10．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．some cetaceans have the same intelligence as human beingsB．it is unnecessary to look for aliens and do research into themC．both dolphins and whales greet each other with specific whistlesD．both dolphins and whales have a lot in common with humans in behaviors 11．What is the best title for this passage?A．Aliens living underwaterB．A study of intelligent dolphinsC．Intelligent creatures of the seaD．Reasons for the intelligence of sea creaturesI’m rather good at using maps. But I forgot the maps and here we were, late afternoon, last day of vacation, my daughter, my cousin and I, driving along a two-lane highway in Oregon. No other car in sight, and the sun had just gone down. Where was that sweet little village?It was supposed to be right along this river. We drove on, farther into the unknown, river always at left as our guide. We kept passing farms and fields and now a few lights were coming out. In my head, I was doing a lot of self-criticisms: Why didn’t we start earlier, bring the map and on and on? My cousin and I were both impatient and stressed. My daughter, at least, was happy in the back seat, text messaging a friend. I pulled up on the shoulder of the road to think.Just then－WOW! Amazing! A new scene had appeared. Where did it come from?Right there, out of nowhere: a magical misty landscape. Fields stretched in silent purples, with rows of tall trees, darkening in the dusk (黄昏). I turned the car engine off. All was silent in the hot summer air. Beside us, a plum-colored river hardly moved between a border of trees, its dark lazy water reflecting the last light of day.How breathtaking! Where had it been? If I had seen even a bit of this beauty while driving along, I could have stopped and taken a look. I had missed it all.We miss a lot, almost everything, in fact, in our world. Our task-focused filters (过滤器) take care of that, selecting only what we need. We need to get to work. Have some lunch. We see what we need to see, often for purposes of survival. Gregory Bateson, speaking of beauty, said the judgment is selection of a fact. In our daily lives, who or what is doing the selecting? Can we make a change? Can we see further?12．Which of the following might be the destination of the author’s driving? A．A vacation spot. B．Her own home.C．A tourist centre. D．Her cousin’s farm.13．What made the author keep blaming herself in the beginning?A．That the vacation was below her expectations.B．That she wasn’t as good at using maps as before.C．That lack of full preparations got her to lose her way.D．That her cousin and daughter couldn’t get along.14．The author felt really amazed because _________.A．she discovered a tourist spot unknown to the publicB．her carelessness brought an unexpected pleasureC．she unintentionally reached what she had planned toD．the right route (路线) to her destination came out of nowhere15．What does the story intend to tell us?A．Stay cool when you are trapped in trouble.B．Make a change for the purpose of survival.C．Be positive because there's always an alternative (choice).D．Slow down your paces to enjoy beauty in life.二、七选五Tips for Upcoming Senior TwoThe upperclassmen often describe Senior Two in No.7 High as a year with “much more homework, more frequent exams and more fierce competitions”. 16●Manage your time carefully and make the most of it.Try to study not only hard but efficiently. Make a to-do-list for your time after school. Don’t just spend quite a long time on only one subject, especiallya science subject. 17 Remember to take breaks when you feel exhausted.●Treat competition in class in a right way.Competition cannot be avoided, but everyone wants to study and live in a friendly environment. Don’t treat your classmates as potential enemies. 18 By helping others solve problems, you inspire others, consolidate your own knowledge and gain lasting friendship.● 19Don’t let your former rankings limit you. What really matters is how you treat exams and rankings. Forget the class or grade rankings, but compete with yourself. In a while, you will see yourself climbing in scores and rankings.All in all, the coming new school year is sure to be full of challenges. Too much worry only adds to your difficulties in your development. 20 Wish you the best of luck in the new academic year in No.7 High!A．Treat yourself as the rival.B．Have a right attitude towards your rankings.C．However,rearrange your time table is of great importance.D．Instead,divide the hours into small periods for different subjects.E．So when they turn to you for help,just share your wisdom generously.F．If you keep my advice in mind,you will achieve a lot and lead a happy life.G．When you prepare for the upcoming challenges,some advice from me may be helpful.三、完形填空My parents operated a small restaurant in Seattle.

It has been a birthday gift for my husband for 10 years. It all began because my husband Mike hated the commercial aspects of celebrating birthday. Knowing he felt this way, I decided one year to stop buying the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Mike. The inspiration came in an unusual way.Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling (摔跤) at the junior level at the school he attended. There was once a match against a team called Power, sponsored (赞助) by an inner city charity.As the match began, I was surprised to see that team members of Power were wrestling without headgear, a kind of light helmet designed to protect a wrestler’s ears. It was a luxury the team obviously couldn’t afford. Well, we ended up beating them. And as each of their boys got up from the ground, he walked around with a kind of street pride that couldn’t acknowledge defeat.Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them.” Mike loved kids — all kids. He understood kids in competitive situations, having coached little league football, baseball and basketball. That’s when the idea for his present suddenly occurred.That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store, bought varieties of wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them secretly to the inner city charity. On his birthday, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me.4．What is the author aimed at in paragraph 1?A．Introducing the author’s husband, Mike.B．Describing the appearance of the envelope.C．Explaining the significance of the envelope.D．Bringing out the reason of seeing the envelope as a birthday gift.5．What could we learn about the match from the text?A．The team Power lacked protective headgear.B．The author’s husband thought highly of the match.C．The author’s son Kevin was a professional wrestler.D．The team Power accepted the outcome of the match willingly.6．How did Mike react when Power failed?A．He felt indifferent for the team’s failure.B．He thought they didn’t have the ability to win.C．He admired their street pride despite the defeat.D．He believed it would discourage the boys’ spirit.7．What does the “envelope” symbolize?A．The author’s dissatisfaction with traditional birthday gifts.B．The author’s love and thoughtfulness towards her husband.C．The author’s desire to keep the gift hidden until the last moment.D．The author’s attempt to remind her husband of his coaching days.Traditionally, filmmaking has been seen as a domain (领域) limited to professional teams led by experienced directors or wealthy individuals. However, with the help of AI-generated content (AIGC), ordinary people are now ab le to produce brilliant films and even receive awards at a film festival.This year, the 14th Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF) introduced the AIGC Short Film Unit for the first time. From January to April, the committee received 430 films from both domestic and international creators. Impressively,45 percent of the total submissions (提交) were from independent creators, with the youngest being just 11 years old, while professionals accounted for only 10.7 percent.“AIGC is changing the film industry by allowing ordinary people to create films,” stated Wang Lei. Wang Zimin, a 29- year- old journalism major, won the Best Creative Award with his film Illegal Report. In his film, a special group decides whether beings are considered as AI or human to prevent chaos.A significant challenge in AIGC filmmaking is shot continuity because many AIGC applications can only produce random video clips based on users’ order. As a result, charactersoften appear differently in following scenes. Wang Zimin explained his innovative solution: “To maintain continuity, I used unclear images to make the scenes smooth.” He added, “I dug into AI applications for just two months. AIGC tools are everywhere and user- friendly like Meitu.”According to Song Donghuan, a scriptwriter and founder of StoryStorm, a leading AIGC workshop, “AIGC filmmaking is accessible to everyone, with no barriers related to wealth or technology. The essential requirement is a strong desire to express themselves.”Song also highlighted the transformative impact of AI: “We are fortunate to live in the era of AL Now, the only limit to becoming a director is not the absence of a team, scenes or actors, but rather your own imagination.”8．What can we know about the AIGC Short Film Unit at the 14th BJIFF?A．Chinese creators contributed to half of the films.B．Only 10.7 percent of the films were well- received.C．Most of the entries were made by non- professionals.D．Individuals age under 18 were disqualified to submit films.9．What is one problem of using AIGC to make films according to the text?A．Unclear images at certain scenes.B．Lack of continuity between scenes.C．The limited AIGC tools in filmmaking.D．High costs for independent filmmakers. 10．Which is closest in meaning to “transformative” in the last paragraph?A．Short- termed.B．Negative.C．Predictable.D．Ground- breaking. 11．Which is the most suitable title for the text?A．The Rise of Independent Filmmakers.B．Wang Zimin: A Rising Star in the Film Industry.C．A Revolutionary Era in Filmmaking: The Role of AI.D．The Development of Beijing International Film Festival.Over 8,300 million tons of plastic produced up to the end of 2023, 6, 300 million tons have been thrown away. Most of that plastic waste is still with us, buried in landfills or polluting the environment. Microplastics have been found in Antarctic sea ice, in the guts of animals that live in the deepest ocean and in drinking water around the world.But what if we could wave a magic stick and remove all plastics from our lives? It mightseem like a good idea for the planet, but we’d soon find out how far plastic has spread to every aspect of our existence.In hospitals, the loss of plastic would be devastating. “Imagine trying to run a dialysis (透析) unit with no plastic,” says Sharon George, senior lecturer at Keele University in the UK. Plastic is used in gloves, tubing, blood bags, sample tubes and more. Some everyday plastic items are also important for protecting health. Face masks, including plastic-based surgical masks and respirators (人工呼吸器), as well as reusable cloth masks, have helped slow the spread of virus.Our food system would also quickly come apart. We use packaging to protect food from damage in transit and preserve it long enough to reach supermarket shelves, as well as for communication and marketing. “I cannot imagine how plastic would be replaced completely in our system,” says Eleni, a lecturer in environmental management at Brunel University London.Swapping out plastic packaging would have a series of environmental effects. While glass has some advantages over plastic, such as being endlessly recyclable, a one- liter glass bottle can weigh as much as 800g compared to a 40g plastic one. When those heavier bottles and jars need to be transported over long distances, carbon emissions grow even more. It’s clear that replacing one material with another won't solve all our plastic problems.12．What happens to most of the plastic waste thrown away in paragraph 1?A．It is stored in certain facilities.B．It is recycled into new products.C．It is transformed into microplastics.D．It is buried in landfills or pollutes theenvironment.13．What can be interred from paragraph 3?.A．Plastic plays a significant role in hospital.B．Hospitals prefer using cloth masks to plastic masks.C．Hospitals can function well without plastic materials.D．Plastic masks have little impact on slowing the spread of viruses.14．What is Eleni’s attitude towards completely removing plastic from the food system?A．Supportive.B．Optimistic.C．Doubtful.D．Indifferent. 15．What makes the best title for the passage?A．What if we stopped using plastic?B．Swapping out plastic for sustainable living.C．More recycling won’t solve plastic pollution.D．Is plastic packaging bad for theenvironment?Ways to keep your brain youngEvery brain changes with age, and mental function changes along with it. Mental decline is common, and it's one of the most feared consequences of aging. But cognitive(认知的) damage is not unavoidable. 16 .Get mental stimulationThrough research with mice and humans, scientists have found that brainy activities stimulate new connections between nerve cells and may even help the brain generate new cells.17 Read, take courses, and try “mental gymnastics,” such as word puzzles or math problems that require mental effort like drawing, painting, and other crafts.Get physical exercise18 . People who exercise regularly increase the number of tiny blood vessels that bring oxygen- rich blood to the region of the brain that is responsible for thought. Exercise also spurs the development of new nerve cells and increases the connections between brain cells.19Good nutrition can help your mind as well as your body. For example, people that eat a Mediterranean style diet that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts, unsaturated oils (olive oil) and plant sources of proteins are less likely to develop cognitive impairment and dementia. In this way, both your blood sugar and blood pressure will be in good control.Care for your emotionsPeople who are anxious, depressed, sleep- deprived, or exhausted tend to score poorly on cognitive function tests. Immediate actions should be taken to prevent cognitive decline. Neglecting your emotional well- being can have a profound impact on your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and maintain a high level of mental sharpness. 20 .A．Improve your dietB．Improve your blood sugarC．Enough sleep is of great importance for brainD．Research shows that using your muscles helps your mindE．Here are some ways you can help maintain brain functionF．Any mentally stimulating activity should help to build up your brainG．Positive moods can reduce stress and anxiety, leading to improved mental health二、完形填空Many years ago, there was a young boy named Daniel who lived in a small village. He was a gifted student with a(n) 21 for science, but he faced a significant challenge: his family was too poor to 22 the necessary equipment and resources for his experiments.23 , Daniel’s determination to pursue his passion did not waver (动摇). He collected waste materials from the local factory and used them to 24 temporary lab equipment. His creativity and resourcefulness allowed him to 25 simple experiments, and he learned a great deal from them.One day, Daniel heard about a national science competition for students. The winner would receive a(n) 26 to a well-known university. Daniel knew this was a chance to change his life, so he decided to 27 the competition.He spent 28 hours designing and building a unique device that could convert waste materials into renewable energy. Despite numerous setbacks and 29 , Daniel never gave up. He worked tirelessly, refining and improving his invention.When the day of the 30 arrived, Daniel presented his invention to the judges. They were impressed by his ingenuity and the potential impact of his invention on the environment. To Daniel’s delight, he was 31 the winner of the competition.Daniel’s victory not only earned him a scholarship (奖学金) but also 32 others in his village to pursue their dreams, 33 their circumstances. His story serves as a 34 reminder that with determination, creativity, and a little bit of resourcefulness, one can 35 barriers and achieve great things.21．A．solution B．passion C．expectation D．examination 22．A．donate B．attract C．afford D．invent 23．A．However B．Besides C．Therefore D．Otherwise 24．A．introduce B．fix C．discover D．create 25．A．conduct B．observe C．question D．construct26．A．introduction B．award C．reward D．call27．A．quit B．host C．escape D．enter 28．A．limited B．precious C．countless D．equal 29．A．successes B．performances C．opportunities D．failures 30．A．victory B．competition C．experiment D．ceremony 31．A．discussed B．admitted C．adjusted D．declared 32．A．persuaded B．inspired C．recommended D．allowed 33．A．because of B．in case of C．regardless of D．in place of 34．A．powerful B．familiar C．careful D．convenient 35．A．overcome B．welcome C．forget D．target三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Do the names George Michael, Madonna and Michael Jackson sound familiar? Well, these are just some of the names that were well-known in the music scene of the 80s and early 90s. The 80s pop musicscene was an important step to the popularity (普及) of present-day music. A new wave in the music scene was introduced, which made such music styles as punk rock, rap music and the MTV popular. Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles, it was also the beginning of something big. The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar-based music with visual displays. A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly.The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Introduced in 1982, few people can forget the video not only because of its never-be-foreseen images, but also because of the popularity it received. Think of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s. Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in. These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s. Though today’s young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was, most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love.Some of the 80s pop music legends (传奇人物) include Madonna, U2, AeroSmith and of course the King of Pop Michael Jackson. Let’s not forget Prince, Tina Turner, Phil Collins and Motown’s Lionel Ritchie. Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time. Undoubtedly, the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.4. What is the text mainly about?A. The characters of 80s pop music.B. What made 80s pop music popular.C. 80s pop music’s steps to popularity.D. The effects of 80s pop music.5. 80s pop music mainly includes the following styles EXCEPT ________.A. guitar-based musicB. the MTVC. rap musicD. punk rock6. Michael Jackson’s Thriller impressed people so deeply mainly because ________.A. it changed the lives of peopleB. he sang it in a special styleC. it was made into a music videoD. it left people with happy memories7. The purpose of the last paragraph is to tell readers that ________.A. 80s pop music is and will remain popularB. 80s pop music has many faultsC. 80s pop music is now out of dateD. we shouldn’t forget the great musicians of the 80sCThere are three of us in the laboratory: Jules, me and Dr. Leonards. Leonards asks me to sit in front of Jules. As I do, he looks me in the eye and starts to move his face through a series of emotions-happy, confused, surprised, glaring. I'm attracted by his display, feeling delight when hegrinsand feeling serious when his eyes narrow angrily. None of this would be a surprise, of course, if Jules were a human. But he's a robot head on a table.The most special thing is that, consciously(有意识地), there's no mistaking Jules for a real person. Although he has surprisingly realistic skin, his eyes don't fit firmly against his lids, and he has a terrible hairpiece. Yet, as I walk into the room, I experience a complex worry of feeling in his direction. It's not at all like entering an empty space. It's a bit awkward for Jules’ shining false hair. Some unconscious part of me is responding to him as if he's real. This matters, because if we're to one day live comfortably along with robots , an understanding of how we instinctively(本能地) react to them is significant. The study of these issues is the frontier of a new scientific research; human-robot interaction.Jules was built as part of an attempt to understand the emotions that can be communicated by a human. “All the robots we'vebuilt so far don't have that rich emotions. We wanted to build a robotic face, with small motors that mimic(模仿) all the muscles you have, so we could discover what it could express. "Such research is becoming increasingly important, says Dr. Leonards, partly because our rapidly ageing population will soon need the help of robots with which they can effortlessly interact.8. What does the author think of Jules?A. He ignored him in his place.B. He didn't treat him as only a robot.C. He was afraid of his being there.D. He mistook him for a real person.9. What is the purpose to build such a robot?A. To help humans of old ages.B. To carry out a scientific research.C. To take the place of human labour.D. To make an interaction with human.10. What doesthe underlined word “grins” mean in Paragraph1?A. Smiles.B. Shakes.C. Worries.D. Cries.11. What may be the best title for the text?A. Human And RobotB. Success Of Making A RobotC. Robot Will Replace ManD. Difference Between Man And RobotDMy wife and I recently completed a day-long tour of the Great Wall with Jessie. In addition to being very knowledgeable about the history of theareas that we toured, she spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions. Her driver was very experienced and polite, and we really enjoyed being able to have a customized tour that avoided the tourist traps and forced shopping that seem to be a part of the larger group tours.The attractions themselves were fantastic. I was a little worried that the snowy weather might impact our trip to the Great Wall, but everything went fine, and there weren’t many people out at all that day. I suggest wearing strong shoes—the Great Wall is really a hike. And in snowy or rainy days, the surfaces are pretty slippery (滑的)! Seeing this area in winter was really unique, and the snow made for great pictures. Jessie kept us entertained with stories and facts about the construction of the Wall, and always pointed out great spots for taking pictures. Even though she’s in fantastic shape, she cared about our level of fitness and often stopped to let us catch our breath.When we got back to our hotel, Jessie gave us a great recommendation for dinner and some tips for our planned stops the next day. If I find myself in Beijing in the future, I will certainly be contacting Jessie for more tour opportunities, and I’ve already recommended her to some friends who are visiting the area later in the year. I can’t say enough about how kind and knowledgeable she was, and she really gave us a great tour experience.12. What can we infer about Jessie?A. She is a tour advisor.B. She is a tour guide.C. She is a foreign traveler.D. She is a skilled driver.13. When did the writer visit the Great Wall?A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.14. What did the writer think of his tour?A. Adventurous.B. Disappointing.C. Satisfactory.D. Improvable.15. What is the probable title for the text?A. A Wonderful Tour Day with JessieB. An Extraordinary Tour CompanyC. The Great Wall, an Excellent AttractionD. Jessie, a Kind and Knowledgeable Guide第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
