Give me a satisfying “beach read” and I’m happy for days. However, I’m sad to say it isn’t really a thing for kids. Most kids would rather take their boards out beyond their parents’ comfort zone than read. And who can blame them?But the truth is that even when kids are on vacation, they need the same sort of relax, and reading time that we adults look forward to. The trick is getting them to sit for 5 or 10 minutes to refresh their bodies and to enjoy the pleasure of reading.Books tend to be kind of heavy and they can get wet or filled with sand and are then pretty much ruined. Book chapters tend to be kind of long. Your child may refuse to read. And if your kids are anything like my daughter, they may hate to close a book in the middle of the chapter.You know what I’m going to say, right? Magazines won’t weigh you down. They can be thrown away if they get wet, and will provide just the right amount of reading for thetimes when my daughter is ready to sit under the umbrella and cool down for a few minutes. Literary magazines will allow your child to read wonderful fiction paired with beautiful illustrations(插图). Discovery magazines deliver articles on all sorts of topics that will excite and interest your nonfiction lover.So don’t leave the beach read behind when you pack the beach bags. Slip a magazine or two in the pocket of the bag and when your child needs a few minutes ofdowntime(休息), pull it out and get them to sit for 10 minutes or so.4．Who is the text most likely intended for?A．Parents.B．Kids.C．Travelers.D．Teachers. 5．What does the author really want to say in Paragraph 3?A．Books become a burden for kids on holiday.B．Books are not the best choice for “beach read”.C．Kids don’t spend time reading books on holiday.D．It’s a pity to throw away the books ruined on holiday.6．What can we infer about the author’s daughter from the text?A．She reads thick books during her holiday.B．She prefers to read some literary magazines.C．She takes some magazines with her on holiday.D．She doesn’t want her magazines to weigh her down.7．What may be the best title for the text?A．Enjoying Magazines on the BeachB．Making “Beach Read” a Thing for KidsC．Making Good Use of Kids’ Time on the BeachD．Packing Your Beach Bags with Literary MagazinesJim suffered heart problems.In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.When his heart problems led to operation,Jim went through it successfully,and a full recovery was expected.Within days,however,his heart was not beating properly.Jim was rushed back to operation,but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness.He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.Dr.Bruce Smoller,a psychologist(心理学家),had had many conversations with him,and themore he learned,the stranger he realized Jim’s case was.When Jim was a child,h is father,a teacher,suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover.One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework,promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up.His father agreed,but when Jim returned his father had died.Jim’s fat her was 48.“I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father,”Dr. Smoller says.“He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework,his father would have lived.Jim had been troubled by the idea.The operation was the trial(判决) he had expecte d for forty years.”Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.Jim’s case shows the powerful role that attitude(态度) plays in physical health,and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups.Although most cases are less direct than Jim’s,studies show that childhood events,besides genes,may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer,heart disease and mental illness.8．Jim was sent back to operation because______.A．his heart didn’t work well.B．he expected a full recovery.C．his life was drawing to a close.D．the first one wasn’t well performed.9．What made Dr. Smoller feel strange about Jim’s case?A．Jim died at a young age.B．Jim died on the operating table.C．Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.D．Jim’s death is closely connected with his father’s.10．From Smoller’s words,we can infer that______.A．Jim’s father cared little about his study.B．Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father.C．Jim thought he would be punished some day.D．Smoller believed Jim wouldn’t live to the age of 48.11．Which of the following could have strong effect on one’s physical health according to the text?a.One’s genes.b.One’s life in childhood.c.One’s physical education.d.The date of one’s birthday.e.The opinions one has about something.A．a,b,d B．a,b,eC．a,c,e D．b,c,dGoogle’s data centres and the offices for its 60,000 staff will be powered entirely by renewable energy from next year,in what the company has called a “landmark moment”.The internet giant is already the world’s biggest corporate buyer of renewable electricity,last year buying 44% of its power from wind and solar farms.Now it will be 100%,and an executive said it would no longer refuse to invest in nuclear power in the future.Oman said it had taken Google five years to reach the 100% target,set in 2012,because of the complexity involved with negotiating power purchase agreements.The company’s biggest demand for energy is its data centres and it admits their overall thirst for power is growing.Google was now looking to sign 10-year agreements for low-carbon power that was constant,such as hydro,biomass and nuclear.“We want to do contracts on renewable power,it could be biomass if the fuel source is steady and enough,it could be nu clear.We’re looking at all forms of low-carbon generation.”But he said new nuclear power was “controversial”,the possible safety consequences were much more “dramatic” than with renewable sources,and the price was “much more difficult to guarantee” than w hen funding solar panels and wind turbines.“We don’t want to refuse to sign a nuclear agreement if it meets our goals of low price,safety,and other factors.We don’t want to rule that out,but today we can’t positively say there are nuclear projects out ther e that meet this standard,”he said.The company’s 100% renewable energy does not mean Google is getting all its energy directly from wind and solar power,but that on an annual basis the amount it purchases from renewable sources matches the electricity itsoperations consume.12．A “landmark moment” for Google refers to .A．its efforts in saving energyB．its growing demand for employeesC．its progress in using renewable energyD．its becoming the world’s biggest company13．What made Google slow in achieving its target?A．Negotiations of agreements.B．High consumption of energy. C．Shortage of energy.D．Tight budgets.14．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A．Nuclear power is an ideal choice.B．Solar and wind power is not safe enough.C．It’s unwise to invest solar and wind power.D．Google is unlikely to use nuclear energy soon.15．What is the purpose in writing this text?A．To show Google’s profit goal in global market.B．To talk about Google’s new move to use energy.C．To recommend a new kind of renewable energy.D．To urge the public to use renewable energy.二、七选五A lot of students around the world have to wear uniforms every day, but dress codes are not the same in every country.16．Not all children like to wear uniforms in their everyday life. When I was a school girl, I had to wear a uniform. It was a dark brown dress with a black apron. I couldn’t wear anything else. All the girls in my country had to wear this uniform.17．I remember how I hated to put on my uniform every morning. I could n’t even use colorful hairpins because colorful things were prohibited. All the pupils looked the same, and nobody liked that uniform.My friends and I talked about it very often. 18．All we wanted was to feel comfortable and to be different from other children.Nowadays, the dress code in my country has changed. There are no more uniforms.19．For example, my younger brother, who is a high school student, now likes to wear jeans because they are comfortable, and he doesn’t want to change back to a uniform.However, the government now wants to make a new dress for schools and require uniforms again. Fortunately, the new uniform is supposed to be less formal than the old one.20．If children prefer to wear colorful clothes, adults should permit them to do so. Kids have to enjoy going to school. That is why everything has to be done to make pupils feel comfortable at school.A．For boys, it was a dark blue suit.B．Wearing a uniform has a special meaning for students.C．They depend on the culture and traditions of each country.D．Caring too much about how they dress shouldn’t be a big concern for students.E.We imagined how we would dress if there were no uniforms.F.Children can dress whatever they like.G.In my opinion, it is good idea to have a freestyle dress c ode.三、完形填空Once a wise man and his student traveled to a remote, mountainous place. They were well 21 at a cottage by a family of five. The wise man asked: “How do you 22 in such a poor place?”“That’s what keeps us going,” said the host, 23 to a thin, tired cow. “She gives us milk, some of which we drink and some we make into 24 . When there is extra, we 25 the milk and cheese for other types of food.”The wise man thanked them and left. When he reached the first 26 in the road, he said to his student: “Get the cow, take it to the 27 , and push it off.”28 and angry though the student was, he obeyed.As years passed by, the 29 became too much to bear and the student returned to that cottage to find out what he could do. Upon rounding the bend, he could not believe his eyes. In place of the 30 there was a beautiful house with trees all around, several cars in the 31 , a satellite dish, and on and on. He 32 the man from several years before, strong and confident. He went 33 to the man and asked: “What happened?”The man 34 with a smile: “Our cow fell off the cliff and died. To survive, we hadto 35 new ways of doing things and 36 new skills. And so, we are now much 37 .”Sometimes our 38 on something small and limited is the biggest obstacle(障碍) to our growth. Once you 39 yourself of the thought “it’s little but it’s certain,” then your life will really change. May you have the 40 to recognize your “cow” this new year, and the courage to push it off the cliff.21．A．received B．accepted C．educated D．behaved 22．A．succeed B．survive C．accommodate D．communicate 23．A．referring B．pointing C．sticking D．attending 24．A．cream B．yogurt C．cheese D．butter 25．A．replace B．place C．exchange D．change 26．A．bend B．village C．tree D．bridge 27．A．valley B．river C．cliff D．cave 28．A．Puzzled B．Bored C．Excited D．Ashamed 29．A．depression B．confusion C．anger D．guilt 30．A．fence B．cottage C．road D．hill 31．A．house B．passage C．balcony D．garage 32．A．congratulated B．recognized C．acknowledged D．greeted 33．A．by B．back C．over D．about 34．A．replied B．responded C．reflected D．reacted 35．A．come up with B．put up with C．keep up with D．catch up with 36．A．evolve B．extend C．develop D．polish 37．A．well off B．badly off C．better off D．worse off 38．A．dependence B．attention C．focus D．faith 39．A．remind B．inform C．warn D．free 40．A．perseverance B．fortune C．wisdom D．distinction四、用单词的适当形式完成短文My Travel Experience in ChinaDuring the summer holidays I visited a variety of regions in China.My first stop was Beijing and of course the Great Wall.

Trying to help injured. displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking: survival is never certain. Nevertheless, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had spotted a young owl (猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived. I saw a 2-to 3. week-old owl. It had already beenplaced in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick (雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back. but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also motivate our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bringA nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all -LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.

These women have made their mark in business, entertainment, politics and more. The project hopes to provide girls and women with positive examples who assure (使确信) them that they can succeedThe “Firsts” project includes video features (特写), a book and a webpage. The webpage has the women’s pictures and short descriptions of their achievements. The project’s producers, Spencer Bakalar and Dia ne Tsai, made video profiles (简介) of 37 of the 46 original women featured by the project. And the webpage anticipates that more women will be added as they become new “Firsts”.The women featured in “Firsts” have achieved success in many fields. Eileen Collins was the first woman to command a space shuttle. Jennifer Yuh Nelson was the first woman to direct a major Hollywood movie alone-Kung Fu Panda 2. Serena Williams set a record for tennis Grand Slam singles titles. The road to success hasn’t always been smooth for these women. It took hard work to reach excellence. Many of them also put up with rude comments because they were women. But they also received support from key people, especially parents. Many of the women also speak about the difficulty of balancing work and family life. Their work sometimes required them to sacrifice time with their children or miss important family events. Yet several of them also say that they see their work as setting a good example for their children. They want their sons and daughters to see their mother working and know that they, too. can achieve remarkable things.Michelle Phan was the first woman to build a USS500 million company from a web series.

The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had participated in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind For instance, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day’, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).Researchers said that in the study some of the results were expected. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (指标) of mental health, as previous research had discovered that they tended to have higher levelsof anxiety compared to boys.What was noteworthy. researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46%still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. In the meantime, 67%ofstudents who didn’t get involved in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this indicates high screen time among teenagers generally.“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers. “the study said “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development the present study highlights their importance for g ood mental health results. “32. Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study?A. Talking about their lifestyles.B. introducing their after-school activities.C. Reporting their mental states on a scale.D. Answering questions about screen time use.33 What conclusion can we draw from the findings about teenage girls?A. They are less anxious than boysB. They have a higher score in mental healthC. Few of them take part in after-school activities.D. Too much screen time may be more harmful to them34. What does the author want to show by using the figures in paragraph 4?A. Earlier findings about screen time are wrongB. High screen time is common among teenagers.C. No after-school activities mean no screen time.D. Screens appeal to teenagers more than after-school activities do.35. Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study?A. They are good for teenagers’ physical health.B. They help to improve teenagers’ meatal healt h.C. They allow teenagers’ io become bester.D. They contribute to teenagers’’ social development第二节 (共5小题: 每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5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, 选项中有两项为多余选项,ANIMAL BODY LANGUAGEHuman beings are not only ones who communicate. 36 Here is a quick look at how some of our animal friends send messages to us and to each other.37 When a dog is happy, its ears will stand up and its eyes will be wide open. The dog will start barking. moving its tail, and running around in circles or jumping up and down to show you that it wants to play. A dog that is afraid will lay on its back and close its eyes. The dog may show its teeth and lower its body so that it is close to the ground. The dog may also shake, and it will put its tail between its legs.

Different noises have a variety of meanings they can mean “I am hungry”, “I am angry”, or “Good to see you!” 38 If an elephant spreads its ears, it means “Watch out! “To show friendship, elephants will touch each other with their trunks and stand close to each other, putting their heads together.Dolphins are social animals. 39 An angry dolphin will sometimes hit its tail on the surface of the water. The movement and noise let other dolphins know that something is wrong. If a dolphin wants to send a message over a long distance, or if it wants to show how strong it is, it will jump high out of the water and land on its side, making a loud noise. A dolphin’s favorite activity is leaping into the air while playing with its friends. When dolphins are tired and need to rest, they will swim in small groups close tothe surface. 40A.

I struggled to lift my head out of the water. Inch by inch, my tired body reached for the end of the pool.Earlier that week, I had turned in my first job application at a local pool. Overqualified, I was hired on the spot. However, the tasks were boring: helping confused visitors and measuring the height of children before they went down the slide, those sorts of things. I was competent for more.So a swim test was required, establishing the mere fact that I was not completely helpless in a pool. Midway through, the manager administering the test remarked. “This looks really easy for you. Why aren’t you applying to become a guard? ““The thought hadn’t crossed my mind.”“We ll, lifeguarding demands more responsibility, strength and respect. Thus the position pays $2 more per hour. Your swimming skills are strong enough. All you need to do is complete a certification class. “Inside I was unsure of myself, but his words inspired me-You never know what you are competent to do until you force yourself to do it.Soon I passed the swim test. All left was to practice and learn first aid. CPR (心肺复苏), and procedures for different land and water-based emergencies.Work started soon. Days, weeks, and months went by without incident; emergencies were rare. The skills and training I had so carefully studied and attained seemed unnecessary.Today appeared to be another uneventful(平静无事)day.

As you can see, an increasing number of students in our school have been under tremendous pressure ever since senior high school, thus developing an unhealthy lifestyle, such as staying up deep into night,rushing through meals, taking little physical exercise and so forth. Not only will these bad living habits do harm to our health, but they will have a negative impact on our study. Hence, it’s high time that we should take immediate action and say no to the unhealthy lifestyle.First of all, we should form the good habit of keeping early hours. As the saying goes, early to bed and early to rise make a man healthy, wealthy and wise. In addition, we’re supposed to take meals slowly and regularly, which contributes to good digestion and health. Last but not least, it’s strongly recommended that we should spare as much time as possible to work out. Only in this way can we live a happy and healthy life and make our study more productive.读后续写One possible version:“Something must have gone wrong with him,” I thought to myself. As it turned out,with a closer look,I found the boy waving his hands and struggling in the water desperately. Without a second thought,I dived into the water,swimming towards the boy at full speed.By the time I reached him,he had nearly sunk to the bottom of the pool,his face pale and his head hanging down,which threw me into great concern and huge panic.I picked the boyup and headed to the poolside with all my strength,keeping his head above the water.Having the boy on the floor,I put my ear to his mouth and my fingers at his neck. Itcame as a shock to me that he wasn’t breathing. To make matters worse,I could hardly feel his heartbeat. Every second counted! Without the slightest hesitation I did firstaid to him,giving him mouth-to-mouth breathing and doing CPR as I had been trained before. After what seemed a century,I suddenly felt his body moved,a stream of water bursting out ofhis mouth,and then came the sound of the boy coughing intensely. Seeing the boy come back to life,those surrounding us burst into cheers. Realizing that all my efforts eventually paid off,I breathed a sigh of relief,a smile lighting up my face.2021-2022学年湖北省新高考联考协作体高二下学期3月月考英语试题。

Every man-made object is linked with art.Throughout history, humans have made articles for a wide variety of purposes；generally for everyday practical requirements. The style of practical objectsreflects the outlook and the spirit of the times in which they are made.It seems that humans possess a natural urge to improve constructed objects with decoration： sometimes for beautification， sometimes for religious reasons ，sometimes to show off their wealth and power, and sometimes to tell a story.Unnecessary decoration can ruin the form and perhaps the function of an object,but when decoration is used with care, it can beautify, produce variety, and addinterest.The first essential(重点 )in every creation is that it should properly fulfilits purpose ； for instance ， a teapot should pour perfectly, a block of flats should be a pleasant place in which to live， and a factory or commercial building shouldbe a suitable building in which to work.The second essential is that an object should please the eye with its form，line， proportion(比率 ) ， colour and texture(质地 ) ， and it should be capable of inspiring the emotions.For example ， contemporary furniture designers must thinkof form， function and structure， and have taken their lead from the outstanding Scandinavian designs of Denmark, Finland and Sweden，whose preference was for simple functional furniture to suit the architectural environment of the day. Heavyfurniture is no longer desirable， and by contrast， modem furniture is often characterized by its good proportion，pleasing lines ，simple fittings and attractive structures.Motor vehicles are a perfect example of how design has changed to suit function. Early car design was greatly influenced by the horse-drawn carriage， but today wefind functional design satisfying every requirement of practical use and goodappearance. Designs in the1980s and 1990s included streamlining(流线型 )to reduce wind resistance in fast-moving vehicles ，and, at the same time ，satisfy an important art principle—— rhythm.But the cars of today,often half size of their predecessors(前身 ) ， have taken the concept of industrial design way beyond simple strength ， comfort and beauty.They now include safety and ecological characteristics， for example， reduced fuel consumption， while at the same time satisfying the need to be stylish， and appealing to the eye. For many people，the 21st-century car represents the greatest work of art.21. What point does the author make about decorating objects?A. It is something people would have always done.B. It can show the object has a range of functions.C. It always improves the appearance of an object.D. It usually makes the objects more noticeable.22.The author refers to the motor car to show .A.humans have made great progress in artB.the motor car has a longer history than many other art objectsC.design should be appropriately changed according to needD.art form should raise concern about the environment23.What is the best title for the text?A. Form Follows FunctionB. Life Is Art，Art Is LifeC. Art in Everyday LifeD. The Best Work of ArtBYou will go to college some day and college is one of the most exciting stages of one ’ s life. If you wish to make the most of your campus(校园)experience and become a better person after those four years ， then first you ought to make friends. Close friends contribute to yourself growth for they provide you with moral support that is so important to surviving the stressful college life. Friends can lend ahelping hand when necessary like collecting your homework when you’ re too sickto leave your dorm， and help you develop the right attitude by pointing out to you your weaknesses.Being home most of your life and then suddenly finding yourself on your ownin a large campus without your parents to hold your hand can be annoying.However, rather than thinking about your missing home too much, why not see this new stagein your life as an opportunity for self growth and develop the right attitude that will prepare you for the rigors of post-graduation life， particularly when you join the workforce?Special-interest clubs or organizations are great for self growth. Here, notonly do you get the opportunity to meet with like-minded people， you can also discover more things about your field of interest. Club meetings usually includelively discussions， so go there with the right attitude. You should try to builda good name in the organization by being respectful， active and considerate to others.You might not like all of your professors, but they are there to provideknowledge you need to be successful in your chosen field. Thus， show up for each class with the right attitude and determination to learn. Whether you get alongwell with your professors or not has a huge effect on your self growth as it isa measure of how well you can respect authority and obey requirements.Actively participating in a class debate or lecture contributes to your selfgrowth as it helps you build confidence in speaking up and improves your communication skills. It also helps you develop the right attitude by exercisingdiplomacy(外交术 )when you choose your words carefully especially when discussinga very politically sensitive issue( 问题 )and exercising patience when dealing with classmates who shoot down your ideas.24. In the author’ s opinion，what can help college students develop a positiveattitude?A. Joining special-interest clubs.B. Focusing on their studies.C. Taking up part-time jobs.D. Making friends with others.25. The underlined word“ rigors” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by“” .A. reasonsB. difficultiesC. joysD. effects26.The author advises college students to .A.be respectful at club meetingsB.debate with like-minded people to build confidenceC.choose words carefully in a club discussionD.obey your professor to leave him with a good impression27.The purpose of the text is to .A.introduce how to show yourself in collegeB.tell college students how to socialize with othersC.give college students some advice on self growthD. explain the importance of four-year college lifeCAshok Gadgil has spent the past three decades helping people in need— and he has no plans to stop. On May 2， Gadgil won the $100，000 Lemelson-MIT Award. Each year, the honor is given to an inventor who has improved the lives of people indeveloping countries.Gadgil ’s inventions have helped more than100 million people around the world.Gadgil is a professor and physicist at the University of California， Berkeley. Whenhe’ s not teaching，he works to find solutions to global problems such as energy efficiency(效率 )and water safety.“I chose to focus on problems where my knowledge of science could help，” Gadgil said.In the 1980s ， he came up with a program to make energy-efficient light bulbsmore affordable for people in developing countries. Then in the 1990s， Gadgil designed his first life-saving invention， UV Waterworks.It kills deadly disease-carrying germs(病菌 )from drinking water. It costs just one cent to cleanfive liters of water. Gadgil was inspired to find an inexpensive solution to theclean water crisis after more than10，000 people in his home country of India died from an outbreak of Bengal cholera(霍乱 ) ， in 1993. The disease is spread through polluted food and drinking water.So far, the invention has provided safe drinking water to more than 5 millionpeople in India， Liberia, Nigeria， the Philippines and Ghana.Families in refugee( 难民 )camps in Sudan are given food aid.But they still have to cook the meals. In order to do so， refugee women leave the safety of the camps three to five times a week to gather firewood. They walk up to seven hours a dayto find enough wood to fuel their stoves.Cooking over an open flame can be dangerous to one ’ s health and to the environment, too， because of the amount of smoke it produces. Gadgil visited the area many times with his students and his co-workers to work with the refugee women on designing a clean， fuel-efficient stove. The Berkeley-Darfur Stove he created saves 55％ of fuel.That means the womenwouldn ’ t have to leave the houses to find firewood as often. The invention also helps tosave homes more than$300 a year.About 125， 000 womenand their families have been helped.As a professor,Gadgil encourages his students to stay positive about finding solutions to hard problems.“ Be optimistic when you try a hard problem，” he says. “ It ’ s when you solve a large problem that you can have a powerful effecton the world.”28. Gadgil was given Lemelson-MIT Award forA. his teaching experienceB. his new research reportC. his vastknowledge D. his helpful inventions29. Which of the following is TRUE of the Berkeley-Darfur Stove?A. It takes women 7 hours to fuel.B. It still needs the same firewood as beforeC. It is clean and money-saving.D. It is equipped with a fire alarm.30. According to the last paragraph，Gadgil encourages his students .lifeA. to learn lessons from failuresB. to find problems in peacefulC. to make inventions to help poor peopleD. to be confident when facing difficulties31. Which of the following can best describe Gadgil?A. Caring and optimistic.B. Powerful and positive.C. Independent and sensitive.D. Responsible and strict.D“ Hi ， howareya ，” some people say when they see a familiar face.The words run together into a mass, all sense and meaning lost.All the same，people do care how you are.After they greet you, it’ s likely you will greet them back,with an equally meaningless phrase like，“ Can’ t complain,can ’t complain.” You could probably complain, at length, or share a brilliant thought you were just beginning when agreeting interrupted you. You don’ t though， you say, “ Great ， you?”You are not giving each other information about your health and well-being.All the same ， you are sharing information. You’ re acknowledging each other’ s positions as acknowledged friends， or at least as accepted acquaintances.And you are reestablishing the ties that may have lapsed(偏离 )since yesterday.It’ s what anthropologist(人类学家 )Bronislaw Malinoski called a phatic(沟通感情的 )communication.Its message is not in the words you use ， but in the fact that you speak ritually(仪式上地 )accepted words. In Asia, for example， people may ask one another if they have eaten, or if they are busy. They’ re not really askingfor their lunch menu or their agenda， they are saying hello. A phatic signal sayshi.There ’ s embarrassment of being near people without acknowledging them. That uncomfortable feeling is one reason why lonely passengers in the subway may behave as if they cannot see anyone around them or may escape their uncomfortable situation with a book. Some people read all the way home，and never turn a page.Your friend isn’t asking how you are， and you aren ’t telling him. However,he is recognizing your existence, and when you answer, you are recognizing his.In addition,the set speech you have shared opens the door to closer communications if both agree. Someday, you may come to real close friendship， and really tell one another how you are.Meanwhile ， people who greet one another this way do care. They care enough to recognize someone’ s essential( 必不行少的 )humanity.They send a signal across the space between, to share, very briefly and lightly, in awareness of one another. Your greetings prove that neither of you has become a social outcast. How areyou? You are still a member of society in good status. You are still the onewho knows the rituals necessary to get to work each day.32. According to Bronislaw Malinoski，a phatic communication .A. is rarely used by Asian peopleB. is too complex to be used oftenC. helps establish or keep certain relationshipsD. often ruins the normal relationships between friends or acquaintances33. Some people seldom greet strangers because .A. they want to be polite to othersB. they feel uncomfortable to do itC. they don’ t know when to greet themD.they want to do something meaningful34. The underlined word“ outcast”A. a person who is well-educatedC. a person who is a burden to society others in the last paragraph probably means .B. a person who succeeds suddenly D. a person who is not accepted by35.What does the text mainly tell us?A.Greetings should be better expressed.B.Greetings convey different meanings to different people.C. Greetings help prove an individual’ s social independence.D. Greetings help an individual be connected with the society.第二节（共 5 小题；每题 2 分，满分10 分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

My focus often changes as I stare out at the road ahead. But I became fully attentive on a recent morning once I realized the entire newscast was dedicated to local wildlife.There was something about the pack of some 30 to 50 javelinas (野猪) that ruined a golf course near Sedona, Arizona, followed by talk of the recent sighting of a jaguar (美洲虎), a species that ranged across Arizona and Sonora, Mexico, until construction of the border wall blocked the way. Finally, there was an update on Mexican wolf reintroduction efforts in New Mexico and Arizona. The results were mixed: Nine of the wolves had died or been killed recently.As I sat in my car, listening to the news, I felt helpless, even mournful. What would it take for most of us to understand that the javelinas’ behavior on that heavily irrigated golf course in the desert was a sign that maybe the course shouldn’t be in the desert to begin with? The way I saw it, the javeli nas weren’t invading (入侵) the site; they were reclaiming it. After all, the javelinas’ needs—for food and space—are more basic than a few privileged humans’ desire to play golf.As for the Arizona Mexican wolf pup reintroduction effort that I heard about in the news, for the past 25 years, scientists have been working hard to restore the native wolf population, and yet are unable to remove its greatest threat. Today, almost 250 Mexican wolves are believed to be in the wild, and every year, humans illegally kill one out of ten. The wolf recovery effort is necessary, but it’s extremely difficult because we humans keep getting in the way.I need to tackle my helplessness, because helplessness leads to no longer wanting to take care of what matters most. Therefore, I think that it must be a good sign that my local news now regularlycovers the challenges of coexistence and possible solutions to our problems. That’s progress and fuels my hope.4. What is the morning news about?A．Dangers of local wildlife.B．Efforts to reintroduce wildlife.C．Issues of human-wildlife coexistence.D．Distribution of wildlife around the world.5. Why did the javelinas destroy the golf course according to the author?A．To meet basic needs.B．To protect the desert.C．To oppose golf playing.D．To attack human beings.6. What do we know about the Mexican wolves?A．They are bound to go extinct.B．Humans threaten their survival.C．Their number has greatly increased.D．10% of them have been reintroduced.7. What is the author’s attitude to the challenges mentioned in the last paragraph?A．Unclear. B．Negative.C．Optimistic. D．Indifferent.Authors are upset after tech companies started using their books to train artificial intelligence without letting them know or seeking their permission. They worry about copyright and loss of income, among other issues.According to CNN, the system is called Books3, and according to an investigation by The Atlantic, the system is based on a collection of pirated (盗版的) e-books including all genres, from fiction to poetry. Books help generative AI systems with learning how to communicate information.The Atlantic article notes that some of the text that’s training AI on how to use language is taken from Wikipedia and other websites. But high-quality generative AI requires higher-quality input than what is usually found on the internet — that is, it requires the kind found in books.Many authors apparently don’t view the use of their books to train artificial intelligence as an honor. Rather, it’s a shortcut that robs them of their due, they say. CNN reported that Nora Roberts, who writes romantic novels, has 206 books in the database —“second only to William Shakespeare.”“The database is all kinds of wrong. We are human beings, we are writers and we are being exploited by people who want to use our work, without permission or compensation (赔偿金), to‘write’ books, scripts, essays because it’s cheap and easy, ” she said in a statement to CNN.Not everyone is upset, however, by use of their work to train AI. Ian Bogost, author of some popular books, wrote a column for The Atlantic. Bogost claims that successful art is beyond its creator’s plans, noting that an author cannot accurately predict a book’s audience. “To complain this unexpected use for my writing is to decline all of the other unpredictable uses for it. Speaking as a writer, that makes me feel bad.”8. What contributes to some authors’ dissatisfaction with Books3?A．It is unable to train AI.B．It uses their works illegally.C．It fails to improve their income.D．It sells books without permission.9. What is mainly presented in paragraph 3 concerning Books3?A．The reason it was created.B．The high quality it possesses.C．The benefit it has brought.D．The bond it has with Wikipedia.10. What does the underlined word “exploited” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Made fun of. B．Caught up with.C．Taken advantage of. D．Looked down upon.11. Which statement would Ian Bogost probably agree with?A．It’s necessary to predict a book’s audience.B．Being involved in Books3 is hardly an honor.C．Good art should be limited to creators’ plans.D．It’s acceptable for books to be used to train AI.Soda bottles and sour cream containers—these plastics typically arrive at recycling plants mixed together in the same bin. But because they are made of different monomers (单体), they must be sorted into different streams before they can be melted to make new products.“Until about a year ago, everybody thought the only thing you could do is take a plastic, break it back down to a monomer and then re-form it,” says Sanat Kumar, a chemical engineer at Columbia University. To seek new solutions to old recycling problems, his team had to solve a fundamentalchemical difficulty: when different plastics are melted together, their various monomers tend to separate from one another. They have developed a process that allows different kinds of plastic to be recycled together. Their findings, reported recently in Nature, could give new life to many items that end up in landfills.The new process solves this problem by adding chemicals called universal dynamic cross-linkers (交联剂) to the mix. Just as soap brings together oil and water, which creates a bridge, allowing the oil and water to mix together and form a stable liquid, these cross-linkers(when applied under heat)form covalent molecular bonds (共价键) that attach the diverse monomers together. These materials can then be melted and remade again and again because the cross-linkers can break and re-form their bonds.The researchers hope the technique could eventually help handle more plastic waste—but it’s not yet cheap enough to be widely used at existing recycling facilities. Still, Kumar wishes it would be one way to help recyclers address the plastic waste crisis. “The plastics problem is huge,” he says, “and you’re going to have to look for multiple solutions.”12. The difficulty of recycling different plastics together lies in how to ________.A．re-form them more quicklyB．prevent various monomers being apartC．break them down thoroughlyD．separate various monomers successfully13. How does the author explain the new process?A．By listing facts.B．By quoting a report.C．By providing examples.D．By making a comparison.14. What can be inferred about the new technique from the last paragraph?A．It still needs some improvement.B．It will solve the plastics problem.C．It has already gained great popularity.D．It has been affordable for most plants.15. What can be a suitable title for the test?A．Monomers Are Still Important for Plastics RecyclingB．The Use of Cross-linkers Outperformed Other Chemicals.C．Multiple Solutions Are Needed for Mixed-Plastics RecyclingD．New Chemical Process Offers Hope for Mixed-Plastics RecyclingHow to give effective feedback (反馈)In the ever-evolving landscape of personal and professional growth, feedback serves as a compass (指南针) guiding our journey towards improvement. 16 Constructive feedback should follow several principles.17 It’s not unusual to tell someone about something that upset or pleased you six months later. It’s also easy for people to start from the point of view of “everything you do is rubbish”, especially when things are not going well. But don’t. Think about exact and precise occasions and behavior that are still fresh in both the giver’s and receiver’s minds.Lay stress on behavior, not personality. Your feedback should target how they act, what effects it has on you or how it makes you feel. Remember that you are making no comment on what type of person they are, or what they believe or value. 18Focus on improvement rather than criticism. It is expressed in a manner that encourages growth and avoids being negative. To take it a step further, it also provides suggestions for change. 19 It involves putting constructive criticism between positive or encouraging comments. For example, when discussing a project with an employee, start by praising their hard work, then add the areas for improvement, and conclude with encouragement.Offering effective feedback to others is a win-win act. 20 Both of you get a slice of personal development. To develop better feedback skills, you need to keep practicing and make it a habit. Anyway, practice makes perfect!When I first built my website 3 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing.Naturally, I went to various websites and blogs for _________.

Clearly, this wasn’t a normal faculty meeting. I replied I was walking on my new under desk treadmill (跑步机).I didn’t have to worry about workday inactivity earlier in my career. As a graduate student and postdoc, I went on frequent field excursions to collect soil samples in remote places. The fieldwork was physically challenging, a contrast to the lab tasks and desk work that were also part of my job. But when I became a professor, fieldwork became a rarity.During the pandemic the situation grew worse. My schedule filled up with one online meeting or seminar after the next. And I “traveled” to them without leaving my desk. Although I had the luxury of a height-adjustable desk, which gave me the option to stand, I still felt unbalanced, and I began to experience back pain.At home, I’d occasionally tried to work on my wife’s treadmill, which I’d repurposed by putting a wooden board across the handles and my laptop on top. I thought that might be just what I needed in my campus office, so I bought a treadmill designed to go under a desk. I decided to spend my entire workday on the treadmill. It took me several days to adjust, but I eventually gotthe hang of typing and speaking while walking.When I’m at my desk, I spend nearly all of my working hours in motion. In the first couple of weeks, I was a bit exhausted when I got home at night. But over time, I developed more endurance. My back pain disappeared and I came to enjoy the time at my desk.Most of the scientists I work with have sent me reassuring feedback. Some have even bought treadmills of their own. That has made me view my walking as a way to silently communicate a crucial message to my colleagues: There’re always ways to stay active if you want!4．How did the author begin the writing of the text?A．By introducing some of his colleagues.B．By showing his academic qualifications.C．By displaying his new under desk treadmill.D．By listing private messages from his colleagues.5．What resulted in the author’s worse inactivity?A．Frequent interviews.B．Busy remote office work.C．His peaceful lifestyle.D．His hatred of fieldwork.6．How did the author get inspiration of his walk-work style?A．From his colleagues.B．From his college life.C．From his use of his wife’s treadmill.D．From his wife’s practical proposal. 7．Which can best describe most colleagues’ reaction to the author’s practice?A．Positive.B．Uncaring.C．Skeptical.D．Conservative.A handshake seems to be a normal gesture. In fact, in the 9th century BC, an ancient site during the ruling of Shalmaneser III clearly shows two figures holding hands. The Iliad, usually dated to the 8th century BC, mentions that two characters “taking each other’s hands and expressing their loyalty.” Centuries later, Shakespeare once wrote of two characters who shook hands and swore to be brothers in the book As You Like It. Shaking hands seems to be an ancient custom whose roots have disappeared in the sands of time.Historians who have studied ancient etiquette (礼仪) books note that the modern handshake did not appear until the middle of the 19th century, when it was considered a slightly inappropriategesture that could only be used between friends. But what if Shakespeare had written about handshaking hundreds of years earlier?According to author Torbjdm Lundmark in his Tales of Hi and Bye: Greeting and Parting Rituals Around the World. the problem comes in differing definitions of the handshake. The early handshakes mentioned above were part of making deals or peace; King Shalmaneser III referred to a rebellion in which he signed a treaty with the King of Babylon. In the Iliad, Diomedes and Glaucus shook hands when they realized they were guest-friends, and Diomedes declared: 66Lefs not try to kill each other. Shakespeare was similarly referencing settlement of a conflict.The modern handshake as a form of greeting is harder to trace. As a Dutch sociologist Herman Roodenburg — the chief authority for the history of handshaking ——wrote in a chapter of an anthology called A Cultural History of Gesture, “More than in any other field, that of the study of gesture is one in which the historian has to make the most of only a few clues”.One of the earliest clues he cites is a 16th-century German translation of the French writer Rabelais’s Gargantua and Pantagruel. When one character meets Gargantua, Rabelais writes, ”He was greeted by countless hugs and countless good days.” But according to Roodenburg, the 16th-century German translation added references to shaking hands.A popular saying suggests that Cleland’s statements against bowing were actually a wish to go back to a potentially traditional method of greeting in Europe. As the centuries progressed, handshaking was replaced by more hierarchical (等级的)ways of greeting -like bowing. According to Roodenburg, handshaking survived in a few remote places, like in Dutch towns where some would use the gesture to make peace after disagreements. Around the same time, those who valued equality also made use of handshaking. Then, as the Continent’s hierarchy was weakened, handshaking became a common practice among people of the same rank, as it is today. 8．Why does the author mention Shakespeare in the first two paragraphs?A．To prove that the history of handshaking is hard to find.B．To illustrate that handshaking is a very old custom.C．To show readers that handshaking is common in fiction.D．To explain the value of handshaking in communication.9．What can we learn about handshaking from the passage?A．The origin of handshaking as a form of greeting is easy to trace.B．Citizens usually shake hands to show friendliness in Holland.C．It was used only between friends and to reach an agreement.D．It is a common practice between people of different social positions.10．Which of the following is similar in meaning to “anthology” in Para. 4?A．the science of mental abilityB．a collection of selected literary passagesC．a daily written record of experiencesD．all the living things of a particular region11．What can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage?A．The handshake has disappeared in some remote parts of the Netherlands.B．Handshaking has different meanings in different European countries.C．Handshakes are now common between people of different positions.D．Most Europeans prefer to shake hands owing to the weakening effect of rank.How do people cope with (应付) climate change? According to a new study led by University of Arizona researcher Sabrina Helm, there are two climate change coping groups: adaptive approach coping and maladaptive avoidance coping.About 70 percent of survey respondents belonged to the first group - the adaptive approach coping. They tended to have higher levels of environmental concern and were more likely to engage in environmental protection activities. The remaining 30 percent were in the maladaptive avoidance coping group. They were less likely than those in the first group to feel guilt or personal responsibility for climate change. They were less likely to take action on climate change or believe that their actions would make a difference.The researchers wondered whether people in the adaptive approach group - who tend to feel more climate-related stress - would have worse mental health overall, since previous studies have linked environmental stress to negative mental health outcomes.Surprisingly, Helm said, they found no differences between the two groups regarding overall health, anxiety or depressive symptoms.There also were not significant differences in the demographic (人口统计的) makeup of the two groups when it came to factors such as race, income, education level or employment status.The fact that the demographics of the two groups were so similar suggests that targeting climate-change-related messaging based on demographic information alone might not be the most effective strategy, Helm said. While it might be tougher to do, determining a person’s climate change coping group could be more useful for those attempting to communicate environmental issues and what people can do to make a difference.“If you think in terms of messaging about climate change, very often you look at social demographic targeting, and that’s not very useful because those two groups should probably be receiving different kinds of messaging,” Helm said. “Those who are already taking action on climate change need encouragement to continue that behavior, while those who are in the maladaptive avoidance coping group need to be encouraged to start doing something.”12．How is the adaptive approach coping group different from the other group?A．In their attitude toward climate change.B．In their experience with climate change.C．In their strategy for dealing with climate change.D．In their achievements in dealing with climate change.13．How did the two climate coping groups surprise the researchers?A．They felt no climate-related anxiety.B．They looked at climate change differently.C．They didn’t differ in mental and general health.D．Neither showed concern for climate change.14．Why is demographic information alone not that effective in targeting climate-change-related messaging?A．It is useless for fighting climate change.B．It only explains the demographic makeup.C．It fails to deal with climate anxiety.D．It is not obvious enough to separate the two groups.15．What does Helm suggest when it comes to messaging about climate change?A．All the messaging should be positive.B．All the messaging should be reasonable.C．There should be different kinds of messaging for everyone.D．Climate change messaging should be tailored for different people.If you are a person who remains busy in work and pays no attention to your health and well-being, you may experience stress, depression, and anxiety. Take a break from the robotic routine and pick healthy habits. According to a psychologist, true wellbeing comes with balance, constant growth and acceptance. 16Deal with stressAlthough it is difficult to avoid stress nowadays, it is definitely possible to deal with it.17 For that, try to avoid the situations that cause stress. If your stress is unmanageable, note down the causes of stress as well as what actions you can take to improve your reaction, mood, and even situation.Be social as much as you canA man cannot stay healthy without interacting with other people. 18 If you have heard of laughter therapy, it also has the same purpose to reduce the stress when you laugh with other people. Everyone needs acceptance and friendship that is fulfilled only when you socialise with others.Find and practice new hobbiesHobby helps us keep busy and engaged. When you have an interest in some activities and enjoy doing them, you take healthy steps to improve your emotional well-being. 19 Finding new hobbies is great for strengthening your brain and boost your mood.20The biggest reason for experiencing depression and anxiety is when a person remains stuck in past events. Negative self-talking such as “why people did this to me” steals not only the happiness but makes the person miss opportunities that the present moment tries to offer. We should learn to enjoy the present life and try not to think too much about the future.A．Learn to live in the present.B．Keep a positive attitude about future.C．Communicating with others lowers the stress level.D．Here are a few tested ways to improve your quality of life.E．It also keeps the work and daily life’s pressure off your brain.F．Staying happy and laughing more is essential for a quality life.G．It is very important to learn to deal with stress in a smart way.二、完形填空Jim Dwyer was once in the United States Air Force.
