福建省福州第三中学2023-2024学年高三上学期10月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Although sisters Carmencristina Moreno and Rosemary Selzer were born 14 years apart, they both have vivid memories of growing up surrounded by music.Their dad was very fond of music and there was always music in the house. Dad composed his own songs. He would sit in the back seat of the white station wagon(旅行车)with a sheet of paper and a pencil. He would say, “Well, this is the only place I can get some peace and quiet to write.” Their father would write lyrics onto whatever paper he could find, however unconventional. “No blank cardboard was safe,” said Carmencristina.In the 1940s, music promoters invited their dad to tour South America. Carmencristina was a young child, and Rosemary wasn’t yet born. But their dad, who was orphaned (使成孤儿) at an early age, never wanted to be away from his daughter for too long. So he refused.When their dad had a pause in his music career, he picked up another job as a farm irrigator (农场灌溉工). He would come home with burst blisters. It must have been hard for him because he had to do what it took to feed the family.Their father Luis died in 1974. Rosemary wondered where her dad’s music career could have gone if he hadn’t sold his music to support his family. “He composed approximately 300 songs in his lifetime, but he gave away the songs or sold them for $50 a song,” she said. “So, I could imagine that as he got older and heard his music on the radio and all of these people getting famous, it must have been painful for him.”She asked her sister how she thought their father would want to be remembered. “Aside from being a good family man, he wanted people to know that he composed music, beautiful music,” said Carmencristina.1.What does the underlined part “No blank cardboard was safe” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Ordinary paper was unfit to be used.B.Dad composed using diverse kinds of paper.C.Dad preferred writing lyrics on blank cardboard.D.Blank cardboard was not a guarantee of a writing tool.2.Why did Dad give up his tour in South America?A.To prevent his daughters being orphaned.B.To stay with his wife for her safety.C.To make sure his child didn’t suffer.D.To avoid living a tough life.3.What do we know about the father?A.He had little expectation of fame.B.He tended to write songs while traveling.C.He went into business in the 1940s.D.He gave up a lot to support the family.In the fall of 2012, Ken Liu received an offer from a Chinese company, which was seeking an English translator for a sci-fi novel titled The Three-Body Problem. Ken was a natural choice: familiar with both the Chinese and English sci-fi wording and culture. But The Three-Body Problem was unlike anything Ken had ever read. A mind-bending story was full of heady technical passages about physics theory, mixed with profound moral questions and humanity’s place in the universe. So capturing the novel in all its complexity seemed discouraging.When the English translation of The Three-Body Problem was published, it was described as a groundbreaking work of speculative fiction(推理小说). Liu Cixin, the author of the original work said, “Usually when Chinese literature gets translated into a foreign language, it tends to lose something. But I don’t think that happened to The Three-Body Problem. I think it gained something.”Ken was born in Lanzhou, Gansu province. He was a bookworm. Books provided him with a refuge when he moved to Calif. and couldn’t speak English at the age of 11. After graduation from Harvard, he was a computer programmer, then a corporate lawyer, and later a sci-fi writer. Throughout his shifting professional journey, Ken wrote fiction continuously. Eventually, one of his works won three big awards.Ken never set out to be a translator, but a Chinese writer discovered Ken. Chen Qiufan liked reading Ken’s short stories online and kept in touch with Ken. One day, he asked Ken for his opinion on an English translation of one of his stories, which was from a translation company. Ken wasn’t impressed and offered to edit it, but ended up redoing the translation from scratch. Chen was completely moved by Ken’s spirit.Ken’s approach to translation is unorthodox(非正统的). Strict loyalty to the source material is not his chief goal, nor is producing a smooth, Americanized version. “It’s not a word-by-word recreation,” he said. “It’s about how I show the overall effect.” Rather than ignoring cultural and spoken differences that would be lost on most Western readers, he triesto stress them.4.Which of the following best describes Ken’s translation task?A.Vital.B.Demanding.C.Urgent.D.Innovative. 5.What life lesson can match Ken’s experience?A.All life is an experiment.B.Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.C.Persistence will be eventually rewarded.D.Unintentional actions bring unexpected surprises.6.What quality of Ken impressed Chen Qiufan most?A.His enthusiasm for writing.B.His effort for excellence.C.His curiosity about editing work.D.His critical comments on others’ works. 7.What is Ken’s translation style like?A.It follows the book accurately.B.It highlights cultural differences.C.It allows for the loss of something.D.It focuses on the fluency of language.In the Mediterranean Sea, a model detection system— the System for the Avoidance of Ship-Strikes with Endangered Whales(SAvEWhales) developed by Emmanuel Skarsoulis’s research team, can use the clicks of a sperm whale to determine its location in three-dimensional space. In tests using both artificial sounds and the sounds released from real sperm whales, researchers showed that SAvEWhales can provide enough notice for a nearby ship to change direction or slow down when a whale is in its path.SAvEWhales’ design is fairly simple. It has won praise from a professor at Cornell University for its getting near-real-time information that ships could use on the spot. For the model detection system, Skarsoulis’s team fixed three buoys(浮标) in a triangle one to two kilometers apart near the Hellenic Trench, a five-kilometer-deep underwater canyon(峡谷). Hanging from each buoy on a 100-meter line was a hydrophone(水中听音器) to detect underwater sound. The three hydrophones picked up information each time a nearby sperm whale clicked. Based on the reflections of the sperm whale’s clicks, the scientists built their method to calculate the depth of the clicking whale. And by running the same calculations each time a whale clicks nearby, the scientists can actively track whales.So far, the system has only experienced a two-year pilot test, and Skarsoulis and his colleagues have already identified some barriers to expanding it to a full-time monitoring system. These include analytical challenges as well as those involved in maintaining an at-seasystem. In fact, fishermen who happened to be nearby watched the first two SAvEWhales buoys that were used disappear underwater, dragged down by strong water flows. Besides, the surface reflection analysis that makes SAvEWhales so powerful can’t be used for whales that communicate through song rather than clicks, such as fin whales.Yet such monitoring is urgently needed in the Mediterranean Sea, says a whale researcher Nino Pierantonio. Pierantonio notes that other efforts to reduce ship strikes will also be essential tools in protecting the endangered sperm whales. “When reducing speed is not an option, we need another way to achieve it,” he adds.8.How can the new system help endangered sperm whales?A.By locating sperm whales through recorded sounds.B.By reminding ships surrounding sperm whales.C.By guiding sperm whales to a safe place.D.By warning sperm whales of potential risks through artificial sounds.9.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.The selection of the experimental bases.B.The basic development process ofSAvEWhales.C.The inspiration for the model detection system.D.The unique features of sperm whales’ clicks.10.What is the function of the hydrophones in?A.To identify different sounds underwater.B.To record the data gained from the buoys.C.To provide ships’ specific location information.D.To help collect the information on sperm whales’ clicks.11.What can be inferred from the text about SAvEWhales?A.It needs further improvement.B.It will be tested in strong water flows.C.It will target fin whales in the near future.D.It needs to be applied as a full-time system urgently.Have you ever escaped taking on a role or opportunity because you didn’t feel confident enough? Perhaps the voice in your head asked: “Why me? I am not yet ready, not capable enough, or don’t have enough experience.”If you can relate, you’re among the majority of women with whom I’ve worked. I recently asked more than 120 women, from areas including the U.S., UK, Australia, Georgia, Italy, India, Jamaica, and Bermuda: If you’ve ever avoided risks, what factors and reasons contributed to this? More than 70% reported that selfdoubt, or not having enough belief in themselves, their capabilities, or their skills, was a driving factor.As one wellknown executive told me: “Every day I doubt myself. I doubt that I am good enough to be where I am.”This shouldn’t come as a surprise. We know selfdoubt is a pervasive and often paralyzing concern, particularly for women. A study by psychologists at Cornell and Washington State highlighted higher levels of selfdoubt in women. Research has also shown that women will apply for a job only if they meet all of the qualifications, while men will apply when they fulfill only 60%. Another recent study identified a considerable gender gap when it comes to selfpromotion, with women providing less favorable assessments of their own past performance and potential future ability. Ultimately, men take more chances on themselves, and that pays dividends in the long run.While this pattern of selfdoubt emerged again and again in studies, my interactions, and my client work, I also noticed another commonality: These women’s selfdoubts weren’t sabotaging their success. The vast majority of successful women leaders I’ve interviewed and coached have built exciting and satisfying careers even while facing selfdoubt.What these women also had in common is courage in the absence of confidence—a trait that is often weaponized against women and used to explain why they fail to achieve career goals. My work has found that successful women take decisive action to move forward even while grappling with fears and doubts and questioning their own “readiness”.“As women, we often feel like we have to be 100% ready in order to move forward. But, if you are 50% or 75% there, jump. Just do it,” said Megan Costello, former executive director of the Boston Mayor’s Office for Women’s Advancement.12.What is the real factor for women to escape taking on a role?A.Higher risks.B.Different beliefs.C.Inner feelings.D.Relatedexperiences.13.What is typical of women in terms of selfpromotion?A.They tend to be less optimistic.B.They prefer to be well qualified.C.They try to be favorably assessed.D.They hope to be clearly identified.14.Which can best replace the underlined word “sabotaging” in Paragraph 5?A.Promoting.B.Weakening.C.Achieving.D.Balancing. 15.How do women with selfdoubts succeed?A.They should be courageous and decisive.B.They should keep themselvesunprepared.C.They should stop questioning their careers.D.They should learn from famous executives.二、七选五Starting university can be a costly experience for most students. But thankfully, with a little know-how, you can gain the benefits of being a student with a lot more cash in yourmight be helpful.Save money on food.Student life doesn’t have to be about empty cupboards and living off takeaways or ready meals.In fact, it can be useful habit to compare the price. 17 One of the easiest and most efficient ways to do that is by using a price comparison site.Use student transport discount.We have a love-hate relationship with public transport. 18 Luckily, most cities have local bus operators that offer student’s passes, which are much cheaper that standard tickets.These can usually be used at all times of the day, including peak travel times.19Going out to a nightclub can be expensive. So take full advantage of student offers, where drinks are cheap and entry is often free. Be sure to keep an eye out for any freebies and special student offers advertised at local restaurants, cinemas and high street shops.Spend less on textbooks.Before you rush out and spend your entire student loan on books, check your lecture outlines and figure out which books you really do need to own, and which ones you can just borrow from the library. 20 And you can also share the cost with your classmates.A.Use student offers when socializing.B.Students shouldn’t go to the nightclub.C.Shop around and find the cheapest option.D.Being a money-saving student has never been easy.E.Remember all your textbooks are available in the library.F.While it may be essential to use public transport, it’s not always cheap.G.If there are some you need to buy, see if you can get a second-hand copy.三、完形填空progress and fulfillment.Vulnerability 23 the state of being exposed to the possibility of being harmed, either physically or emotionally. It’s part of human 24 because we are vulnerable in some way at all times. We are vulnerable to viruses, accidents, misunderstandings and 25 caused by whatever reasons. The only choice we really have is whether to 26 it or not.When some people 27 that they have no vulnerability, they are hard to develop meaningful social connections with others. They are just 28 . No one likes to spend much time with people who are dishonest or 29 to open up their feelings. Most of the time, a great friendship starts by 30 each other’s vulnerability.Indeed, it’s not easy for us to admit our vulnerability in front of others. In order to protect ourselves, we tend to struggle with 31 . But in fact, when we are vulnerable with people, we have signaled that they can also 32 share their anxieties. And we don’t have to worry too much about the results because a far more common reaction of people is to respect our 33 instead of laughing at us.

福建省莆田市第二十五中学2024-2025学年高三上学期期中考试英语试题一、阅读理解The Best Caves in The WorldHang Son Doong, VietnamNatural caves don’t come much larger than Hang Son Doong, close to the border between Laos and Vietnam. This cave possesses the largest cross-section of any known cave on the planet, a vast area that is difficult to describe. Supposedly, a Boeing 747 could fly through without damaging its wings, but that doesn’t really do justice to the vastness of Hang Son Doong. The stalactites (钟乳石) here are pretty massive too, with some reaching up to 80 metres.Waitomo Caves, New ZealandGlowworms (萤火虫) are there, as far as the eye can see. Okay, not literally, but the Waitomo Cave system on New Zealand’s North Island is best-known for the fluorescent fauna that light up the walls, giving it the not-particularly-creative but completely acceptable “Glowworm Caves” nickname. They are more accessible than other caves on this list, with rafting and adventure tours available to those looking for something a little more thrilling.Mammoth Cave, the USAIf you have certain expectations from somewhere called “Mammoth Cave”, that is entirely understandable. Mammoth Cave in Kentucky is the world’s longest known cave system, an incredible 420 miles of underground wonder. That’s twice as long as the next longest, by the way, although it isn’t unusual for the USA to go all out on such things.Reed Flute (芦笛) Cave, China Named after the reeds that grow outside, which are used to make flutes, obviously, the Reed Flute Cave’s walls are covered with inscriptions from centuries gone by—if evidence was needed that people have been paying attention to this place for a long old time. The inside part of the cave is also lit up by multicoloured lights, giving it a real otherworldly theme that adds weight to the nickname.1.What is special about Hang Son Doong?A.It was once a base of a factory.B.It is the deepest cave in the world.C.It has the highest stalactites in the world.D.It owns the largest cross-section in the world.2.Which of the following can be much easier to enter?A.Hang Son Doong.B.Waitomo Caves.C.Mammoth Cave.D.Reed Flute Cave.3.Which country probably has the longest cave system in the world?A.Vietnam.B.New Zealand.C.The USA.D.China.Food vlogger Julia Pacheco undertook an ambitious challenge to see if she could sustain herself on just $ 10 for an entire week, covering all meals from breakfast to dinner. The aim was not only to test the feasibility (可行性) of such a tight budget but also to explore how it would affect her overall well-being by the end of the week.Julia ’s journey began with a strategic shopping trip to Walmart, where she carefully selected key ingredients to maximize both her budget and nutritional intake. This initial phase set the tone for the week, showcasing the importance of planning in budget-friendly eating.Julia ’s grocery list included affordable staples (主食) like pasta, brown rice, mixed vegetables, bread, lentils, pinto beans, and some fresh produce such as apples, tomatoes, onions, and garlic. These items were chosen for their versatility (多用途) and nutritional value. The total cost of these groceries perfectly hit the $10 mark, setting the stage for a week of simple yet thoughtful meal planning. This careful selection was crucial as it laid the foundation for her entire week’s living.For the first five days, the mum’s breakfast routine consisted of oatmeal flavoured with apple. This choice was not only cost-effective but also provided a warm, hearty start to her day. On the last two days, Julia switched things up by having boiled eggs on toast, adding variety within budget. These breakfast options demonstrated that even on a tight budget, one could enjoy a wholesome and satisfying start to the day.By cooking large portions and storing them for later, she minimized waste and ensured she always had a meal ready, reducing the desire to snack unnecessarily. This approach also highlighted the importance of planning and preparation when working with a limited budget.Throughout the week, she felt full and content, proving that it’s possible to maintain a healthy diet even on a tight budget. Julia’s experience showed the potential to eat well with limitedfinancial resources.4.Why did Julia undertake the $10 challenge?A.To see if she could survive on a strict budget.B.To develop budget-friendly eating habits.C.To test the quality of food at Walmart.D.To promote a new way of living.5.What can we know about the grocery list that Julia chose?A.It fitted her budget and nutrition.B.It was full of her favourite staples.C.It was too complicated.D.It was out of a random choice.6.How did Julia manage to reduce waste during her challenge?A.By skipping breakfast.B.By preparing less staples.C.By cooking more food each time.D.By snacking unnecessarily.7.How was Julia’ s overall experience during the challenge?A.she struggled with her budget.B.she found it tough to continue.C.she ate well and felt satisfied.D.she suffered hunger sometimes.We all notice bright colors. People who choose to go eye-catching, whether they express themselves through clothes or accessories (配饰), hear everything from “No one is going to miss you at the party” to “I would never have the courage to wear that.” But according to research, those comments may be both accurate and expected.Adam D.Pazda and Christopher A.Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at first impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度). They found that targets, both male and female, who were wearing or surrounded by high-chroma colors were perceived as more open and outgoing than in a low-chroma setting. They concluded that chroma is a variable of perception that can influence first impressions of personality.Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities. These observations are important because some job responsibilities capitalize on some of the personalities inferred through brightcolors.Pazda and Thorstenson recognize what job seekers no doubt consider as they look for a career to match their personal nature: in some occupations, success is fueled by possessing certain personality qualities. They give examples of industries such as sales and marketing as well as customer service as fields where extraverts thrive (繁荣). Accordingly, applicants for these positions may be viewed more favorably and judged as more competent if they wear highly chromatic clothing.Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures. They note the possibility that chroma may influence the perception of personality differently in non-Western countries, and that high-chroma clothing may be perceived as at odds with social norms in other cultures. The practical takeaway, at least in the United States, appears to be that bright colors, like the peacock’s tail, will get you noticed. But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally.8.What is the focus of the study mentioned in the passage?A.The cultural implications of high chroma colors.B.The influence of clothing on viewer perceptions.C.The connection between clothing and job suitability.D.The impact of high chroma colors on first impression.9.What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Draw on.B.Approve of.C.Subscribe to.D.Dig up. 10.Which might be a limitation of the study?A.The culturally specific findings.B.The unmonitored research process.C.The outdated data analysis methods.D.The relatively insufficient theoretical basis. 11.What is the practical advice given by the author in the last paragraph?A.Reserve bright colors for social events.B.Always wear bright colors to be noticed.C.Avoid bright colors in professional settings.D.Use bright colors strategically based on your goals.In recent decades, experiments have begun to catch up with what people who work closely with animals have always known—that animals have an inner life, and consciousness isn’t uniquely human.Consciousness is a concept that is extremely difficult to define. There have been many attempts: is it awareness, or awareness of that awareness, or self-awareness instead? But a useful working definition might be that it is any kind of subjective experience, ranging from how we perceive the external world to our inner thoughts and emotions. Because you can never be inside another living being’s head, questions of consciousness are both hard to answer and open to bias (偏见).Findings of experiments inspired a group of scientists in April to write The New York Declaration Animal Consciousness, which now has over 300 supporters. It states that there is “strong scientific support for conscious experience” in mammals and birds and “at least a realistic possibility of conscious experience” in fish and other species.That animals have some form of inner life must surely be self-evident to many people who live or work with them, just as I would guess that most carers of newborn babies don’t see these infant as senseless automatic machines. The experiences of people with thorough knowledge of either have historically, been viewed as subjective and biased, as emotional connection tends to influence logical reasoning. Our consciousness leads us to over-empathize with others we cannot truly know, the argument goes.But, as the biologist Marc Bekoff wrote, if we humans have something, then other animals are likely to have it too. I personally feel that attempts to divorce emotion, feeling and experience from how we see animals can be as unscientific. For too long, we assumed that humans are unique and animals don’t feel pain or emotions the way that we do, a convenient but cruel null hypothesis (无效假设), when we could have started from the position that perhaps they do instead. 12.Which is a key characteristic of consciousness according to the passage?A.It means any emotional experience of humans.B.It refers to individual’s subjective experience.C.It is all about how we perceive the external world.D.It refers to a common quality shared by all animals.13.Why are the carers of newborn babies mentioned?A.To show that animals are just as conscious as human babies.B.To help readers understand why animals possess consciousness.C.To argue against the view of people living or working with animals.D.To explain why animal carers would assume animals have an inner life.14.What might be the author’s attitude towards Marc Bckoff’s assumption about animal emotions?A.Doubtful.B.Objective.C.Supportive.D.Uncertain. 15.which can be the best title of the passage?A.Consciousness Improved Through PracticeB.Questions of Human Consciousness AnsweredC.Factors Affecting Animal Consciousness DiscoveredD.Conscious Experience Found in Certain Animal SpeciesRejection creates an emotional roller coaster. We feel the sadness, anger, and loss of the person who rejects us, and also our self-respect is hurt. 16 While there is no quick fix, the following suggestions can help you overcome the confusion and ease the pain of rejection.17 People tend to avoid their pain. There is no healing without feeling your feelings. There is no healing without pain. You must go through the feelings to heal. Let yourself feel the loss and the pain and express your difficult emotions. You should know that you are strong enough and can face pain with courage to heal and grow.Take it one moment at a time. It takes time to heal and for the hurt to lessen. In the abyss (深渊), it is hard to think too far, so be patient during this difficult period. Unfortunately, today, we live in the fast lane. We don’t have patience and we want things to happen immediately. Patience is a lost art. 18Develop gratitude. Gratitude is cure for pain. Pain is about what we are missing. Gratitude is about what we are having. If we focus on the negative, we will see the negatives. 19 Those who show gratitude, develop a positive attitude, and appreciate their situation minimize their pain and create more happy moments in their lives.Getting over a rejection is hard. 20 It is there to make you grow. Everyone heals from rejection at their own pace in their own way. We must sympathize with ourselves and acceptthat reality. It’s important to take your time to deal with rejection and to use the practices suggested to heal and move on to the new opportunities life presents us. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it.A.Feel it to heal it.B.Don’t take it too personally.C.However, your pain won’t last forever.D.So, even if you are broken, keep busy.E.With time, the sense of loss and hurt will ease.F.This is why getting over a rejection is challenging.G.If we focus on the positive, we will see the positives.二、完形填空A young woman, swept out to sea while swimming at a beach in China, has been rescued37 hours later, having drifted (漂流) more than 50 miles in the pacific ocean. 21 as an Australian national in her 20s, the woman’s 22 ended thanks to the combined efforts of China’s coast guard and two ships.The dramatic rescue began after the woman’s friend reported her 23 Monday night while they were swimming at the beach.

AFood festivals around the worldStilton Cheese RollingMay Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes , roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane. Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors arc served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy ,but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three clays every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially thehottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina—the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash!21. In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must .A. wear various formal clothesB. roll a wooden cheese in their own laneC. kick or throw their cheeseD. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos22. Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held?A. In New Mexico.B. In the Caribbean.C. In Australia.D. In China.23. The celebration of La Tomatina lasts ___ .A. three daysB. seven days 0C. less than three daysD. more than seven days24. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The chief prize for the Stilton cheese rolling competition is beer or port wine.B. More than 10,000 Chinese take pail in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.C. Thousands of spicy foods are on show in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.D. An exciting tomato battle takes place at the beginning of La Tomatina.BWHAT‘S the most important thing of life?People‘s answers vary greatly. For British scientist Robert Edwards,the answer is having a child.“Nothing is more special than a child,”he told the BBC.Edwards,the inventor of the In Vitro Fertilization(IVF)technology—more commonly known as“test-tube(试管)baby”technology—passed away on April10 ,2013 at the age of 87.Edwards changed the lives of millions of ordinary people who now rejoice(充满喜悦)in the gift of their own child,”said Peter Braude,professor at Kin g‘s College London.―He leaves the world a much better place.‖Edwards started his experiments as early as the 1950s,when he had just finished his PhD in genetics. At that time,much of the public viewed test-tube babies as“scary”,according to Mark Sauer,professor at Columbia University,US.Edwards and his colleague Patrick Steptoe faced opposition from churches,governments and media,not to mention attacks from many of their fellow scientists.“People said that we should not play God and we should not interfere with nature,”Edwards once told Times. He said that he felt ―quite alone‖ at the time.“But Edwards was a fighter,and he believed in what he was doing,‖said Sauer. Without support from the government,the two struggled to raise funds to carry on. And in 1968 they finally developed a method to successfully fertilize human eggs outside the body.The first test-tube baby was born on July 25,1978.Her name was Louise Brown. Despite people’s safety concerns,Brown was just as healthy as other children.“IVF had moved from vision to reality and a new era in medicine had begun,”BBC commented.Ever since then,public opinion has evolved considerably. Couples who were unable to have babies began thronging(蜂拥)to Edwards‘ clinic. Nowadays,Reuters reports,some 4.3 million other“test-tube”children exist. Edwards received a Nobel Prize in 2010 and was knighted(封为爵士)by Queen Elizabeth Ⅱthe following year.Before his death,Edwards was still in touch with Louise.“He is like a granddad to me,”she said in an interview with the Daily Mail.He is a granddad to millions, in fact.25.What is the article mainly about?A.The first test-tube baby.B.A new era in medicine.C.The inventor of IVF technology.D.The changes IVF technology has brought.26.The writer quoted Peter Braude to ________.A.show how difficult it was for Edwards to do his workB.describe what kind of person Edwards wasC.explain why he is loved by all childrenD.comment on his achievement27.The underlined word“opposition”in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ________.A.attack B.supportC.test D.influence28.What is the CORRECT order of events in Edwards‘ life?a.He received a Nobel Prize.b.He struggled to raise funds.c.The first test-tube baby was born.d.He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ.e.He succeeded in fertilizing human eggs outside the body.f.He started his experiments on IVF technology.A.f—e—b—c—a—d B.f—b—e—c—d—aC.f—b—e—c—a—d D.f—e—d—a—c—bCSuccess is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity. But, it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try.J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series,began writing at the age of 6. In her biography, she remembers with great fondness when her good friend Sean, whom she met in secondary school, became the first person to encourage her and help build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.‖Despite many setbacks, Rowling persevered in her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn't until 1990 that she first conceived the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls,it was on a long train journey fromLondon to Manchester that the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into her head.“To my immense frustration (沮丧), I didn't have a functioning pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details bubbled up in my brain, and this scrawny, blackhaired, bespectacled(戴眼镜的) boy who didn‘t know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”That same year, her mother passed away after a ten-year battle with multiple sclerosis, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with clinical depression. Unemployed, she completed her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being rejected by 12 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her commitment to writing that was fostered by the confidence of a friend !29.Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.A. at the age of 6B. on a train journeyC. after her mother‘s deathD. in her secondary school30.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is________.A. openmindedB. warmheartedC. goodnaturedD. strongwilled31.The text mainly tells us________.A. hardship makes a good novelistB. the courage to try is a special abilityC. you can have a wonderful idea everywhereD. encouragement contributes to one‘s successDMoving to a new neighborhood,town,state,or even country can be a pretty scary experience. All you know is that things will be different and chances are you won‘t know the kids at your new school.The experiences that go with moving make many kids feel nervous and worried. This is perfectly normal but don’t let these emotions overrun yourthoughts! You will soon get used to your surroundings and find new friends at your new school.Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult. However,as you begin the moving process,keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house,school,and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent!If you‘re moving to a new state or even a different country and won‘t see your friends for a long time,don’t despair.Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters. Also,thanks to the Internet,it is very easy to stay in touch through email or instant messaging technologies. With your parent’s permission,you can even create a blog or web page to chronicle(记载)all of your new experiences. Include your thoughts,tales of your new adventures,even pictures of new friends,your new house,and new town. Your old friends will love seeing what you are busy with.Many schools have an orientation(培训)program where a student already established at the school shows a new student around for their first week. This can help you to find your way around the school and to make new friends faster.While moving is tough on kids of any age,high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens .“I think moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience,especially if you are into your junior high or senior year. Students tend to have established a very strong peer network during that period in their lives. Often this has more influence on them even than their families in some cases,and when they are torn from that there’s often resentment(怨气).”However,Turner adds that while moving isn’t easy,there are things that your parents and the school can do to help you deal with the change.32.Who are the intended readers of the passage?A.Education experts. B.School teachers.C.Parents. D.Students.33.Which of the following is mainly suggested in Paragraph 3?A.Staying in contact with old friends.B.Expressing yourself when it is possible.C.Forming good habits at school.D.Keeping positive about your new school.34.According to the passage,Karen Turner may agree that________.A.many parents seem to care little about their childrenB.teens can easily be attached to their friendsC.parents should communicate with the school teachersD.teens tend to behave rudely in a new school35.If this passage continues,what would the author further discuss?A.What a new school is like.B.Why parents move with their children.C.How parents and the school can help the children.D.How children can express their anxiety.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。
