2023-2024学年江苏省南京市第一中学高二英语9月月考试卷全卷满分:150分考试时间:120分钟2023.09第一部分:听力(共两节,满分20分)(略)第二部分:阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项选出最佳选项。
ALondon and Paris are two of Europe’s biggest tourist destinations,just a few hours away from each other by road or rail and an hour’s distance by air.What about the train-ferry combination that many recall fondly from their childhoods?Well,though it’s budget-saving, this option is too time-consuming today,so better leave it to your memories.Since the UK is not part of the Schengen Area,passengers need to go through passport control prior to boarding.Air trips:Though flying between London and Paris is by no means recommended,there are still a few people traveling between the two dynamic cities by air.A very low one-way fare is possible through advanced booking,but of course it’s rare,and that doesn’t include the taxi and rail fares traveling to and from the airports.One-way fares from Paris can be as low as€49;From London,Air France flies with fares as low as£39(€46),and British Airways as low as£48(€56).Rail trips:The only direct train between London and Paris is the Eurostar,which travels15-17 times per weekday.Eurostar’s2015edition trains can make the journey in two hours at speeds of up to320km/h.Besides,they offer good seating space.Fares begin at a reasonable£58(€68),round trip;The earlier you book,the more you save.Bus trips:The bus is by far the least expensive and longest way to travel between Paris and London. Eurolines and OUIBUS are two major bus lines traveling between the two capitals.The journey takes between seven and nine hours.Both lines advertise free Wi-Fi.One-way Eurolines fares begin at€15;One-way QUIBUS fares begin at€15too,but early bird sales can even lower the fare.21.Which way is probably the most expensive for a round trip?A.By train-ferry.B.By air.C.By rail.D.By bus.22.What special service does the bus trip provide?A.Passport free boarding.B.Taxi pickup.C.Good seating space.D.Free Wi-Fi.23.What do the trips have in common with each other?A.They are cheaper if booked ahead of time.B.There are different competing companies.C.They are more expensive from the Paris end.D.There are still additional fees to be included.BFinding a suitable name for a baby is a big deal in China.When picking out a Chinese name,parents usually select two or three characters that have a carefully thought out meaning, but when deciding on an English name,many of them struggle.That’s where Jessup and her company,Special Name,come in.In the last few years,Jessup has helped name677,900 Chinese babies,and earned over$400,00in the process,more than enough to pay her college fees.Jessup came up with the idea for Special Name in2015,after accompanying her father on a business trip to China.One of her dad’s business partners,a Mrs.Wang,asked her to help choose an English name for her daughter.Jessup felt honored and quickly realized the importance of choosing a proper name in Chinese culture.The woman wanted people to be surprised by the things her daughter could achieve,so Jessup suggested the name“Eliza”after the character Eliza Doolittle from the play Pygmalion.Mrs.Wang seemed delighted with Jessup’s choice.“If Mrs.Wang needed this service,maybe other parents would as well,”Jessup thought.After returning to UK,Jessup borrowed£1500from her parents and paid a web designer to build a website.She then spent her free time filling up a database with around4,000 English names associating them with five major personality characteristics,like honesty and optimism.In the beginning,Jessup offered the service for free to promote the website,but later,she started charging fees.The business is almost completely self-sufficient,requiring only a small team in China that manages technical operations.She updates the database each month, allowing her to focus full-time on studies.24.What’s the purpose of Special Name?A.To help Chinese teens go abroad.B.To strengthen children’s personalities.C.To pick an English name for a Chinese baby.D.To make a deal with Chinese parents.25.What inspired Jessup to set up Special Name?A.A suggestion from a business partner.B.Her interest in Chinese culture.C.A Chinese mother’s request.D.A character from a play.26.What did Mrs.Wang want her daughter to be in the future?A.A woman with achievementsB.A famous actress.C.A successful businesswoman.D.A western culture expert.27.What can we infer from the last paragraph about Special Name?A.It offers free service.B.It’s updated every day.C.It’s operated completely by itself.D.It is easy to manage.CScientists say they have developed a system that uses machine learning to predict when and where lightning will strike.Researchers report the system is able to predict lightning strikes up to30minutes before they happen within a30-kilometer area.Lightning is a strong burst of electricity in the atmosphere.Since it carries an extremely powerful electrical charge, it can cause very deadly results.European researchers have estimated that between6,000and 24,000people are killed by lightning worldwide each year.For this reason,climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict lightning.The system tested in the experiments uses a combination of data from weather stations and machine learning methods.The researchers developed a prediction model that was trained to recognize weather conditions that were likely to cause lightning.The model was created with data collected over a12-year period from12Swiss weather stations in cities and mountain areas.The data,related to four main surface conditions:air pressure,air temperature,relative humidity(湿度)and wind speed,was placed into a unique machine learning algorithm(算法),which compared it to records of lightning strikes. Researchers say the algorithm was then able to learn the conditions under which lightning happens.The researchers test-ran the system several times.They found that the system made predictions that proved correct almost80percent of the time.“It can now be used anywhere,”the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology said in a statement.The researchers plan to keep developing the technology in partnership with a European effort that aims to create a lightning protection program.The effort is called the European Laser Lightning Rod project.Scientists working on the project are experimenting with a laser technology that could someday control lightning activity,transferring lightning charges from clouds to the ground.They hope that such technology can one day be used as protection against lightning strikes.Possible uses could be at stations,airports or places where large crowds gather.28.Why was the system developed?A.To keep track of lightning deaths.B.To meet people’s curiosity about lightning.C.To protect people from lightning strikes.D.To take advantage of the energy of lightning.29.What is special about the system?A.It collects data samples from around the world.B.It involves the use of a machine learning algorithm.C.It was test-run several times before being put into use.D.Its success owes greatly to a European effort.30.What will the researchers do in the next stage?A.Prevent the formation of lightning.B.Get lightning striking under control.C.Inspire the study of a laser technology.D.Raise the accuracy of lightning prediction.31.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.A system of Controlling LightningB.A Theory of Employing LightningC.A Method of Forecasting LightningD.A Model of Creating LightningDTo many people,honey bees symbolise wealth,sustainability and environmentalism.But as a honey bee researcher,I have to tell you that only the first item on that list is defensible. Although they are important for agriculture,honey bees,which are usually imported from outside the local area,also disturb natural ecosystems by competing with native bees.For several years the media has told us that bee populations are under threat.In response to this media campaign to“save the bees”,raising honey bees has become a popular hobby. But as a species,honey bees are least in need of saving.Much media attention is given to honey bees at the expense of native bees,and this has led many citizens-myself once included-to mistakenly believe they are doing a good thing for the environment by raising honey bees.Unfortunately,they are probably doing more harm than good.“Beckeeping is for people;it’s not a conservation practice,”says Shelly Smith,an environmental science professor.“People mistakenly think keeping honey bees also helps the native bees,which are at risk of extinction.That’s wrong.”Smith and her research team recently surveyed one thousand local people in Canada and found that they had a surprisingly poor understanding of bee types and their roles in promoting flower growth.Most people’s attention is on saving honey bees when,from a conservationist’s point of view,native bees are the ones in more need of support.“To make matters worse,beekeeping companies and various non-science-based projects have financially benefitted from the decline of native bee populations,”Smith explains.“These companies pretend they are interested in saving bees but their actions are actually damaging the native bee populations.”The introduction of honey bees increases competition with native bee populations for food,putting even more pressure on the wild species that are already in decline.Honey bees are extremely efficient food gatherers and take over almost all local flower resources,thus leading to damaging competition-that is,where one species uses up a resource,not leaving enough to go around.32.Which statement does the writer argue for?A.Honey bees endanger native bees.B.Honey bees are a symbol of wealth.C.Honey bees are important for agriculture.D.Honey bees can defend natural ecosystems33.What can be inferred from Paragraph2?A.Beekeeping is still a popular traditional hobby.B.The media is responsible for misleading the public.C.Citizens attempts’to protect the environment are effective.D.The media campaign has failed to promote honey bee businesses.34.What surprised Shelly Smith’s team?A.Beekeeping companies’making great profits.B.The quick expansion of bee-friendly habitats.C.The public’s ignorance of bee varieties and roles.D.Insufficient attention given to saving honey bees.35.How does the writer develop the last paragraph?A.By listing examples.B.By making comparisonsC.By analysing survey data.D.By explaining cause and effect.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。

Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will growback very quickly. A Japanese scientist reported one bamboo plant which grew 1.5 metres (4 feet) in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1, 000 kinds of bamboo.Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimetres (1 foot) across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.Bamboo has been used to make many things such as hats and kitchen tools(厨房用具). Because it is strong, bamboo is also used to build buildings.Many Asian countries have used bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for buildings and supporting (支撑) new buildings and bridges while they are being built.In Africa, poor farmers are taught how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap way to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and nowater.Bamboo pipes (管子) help poor farmers bring water to their thirsty fields without spending a lot of money.36.

You can get there by sea. It is an interesting place and it had a long history. Macao is part of China and most people living there are Chinese.The first Europeans to go to Macao came from Portugal. More than four hundred years ago the Portuguese went there to trade with China. Some settled and made their homes there. They built strong forts to guard the city and the harbor. They also built churches, schools, hospitals and other places. Slowly the city grew. People from many countries came to live and work in Macao.Today many people visit Macao. Some only go there to watch dog-racing or motor-racing or to gamble with their money. But Macao is a quiet and peaceful place. It is pleasant just to walk around and look at old buildings and forts. You feel you are back in the old days. Of course, some of the buildings are now in ruins. The Church of St. Paul has only the front wall with many steps leading up to it. But it is still interesting to see.When you are hot and tired, there are small cool gardens to rest in. when you are hungry, there are good restaurants with many kinds of food. Nearby there are some islands, which are also nice and are easy to get to. There is certainly a lot to do in Macao.41.

Macao is a quiet and peaceful place with a lot to see and to do.CYears ago ,when I started looking for my first job ,wise advised,“Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience. ”How right they were!“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, “I can do it!”when others shout, “No, you can’t !”It took years and years for the early work of Barara McClintock, a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine , to be generally accepted. Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age was. At 90,cellist Palblo Cassls would start his day by playing Bach. A s the music flowed through his fingers his stooped shoulders would strengthen and joy would reappear in his eyes . As author and poet Samuei Ulman once wrote ,“ Years wrinkle the skin ,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or power . Patricia Mellrath, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theatre in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, “My father ,a lawyer long ago told me , I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years ,and the quality of her led one critic to say,“I’m tempted to call Layton a genius.”We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”. We need to turn the tears into sweat as wego after “what-can-be ”.We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, which all our senses-including pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year –old ,the beauty of a rainbow.46. What is the Chinese for “Enthusiasm”?A.热情B. 色彩C. 惰性D.金钱47. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?A. Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.B. If you don’t have enthusiasm, you can achieve nothing.C. Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.D. Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.48. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that____A. music can arouse people’s enthusiasmB. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeedC. enthusiasm can keep people feel youngD. enthusiasm can keep people healthy49. How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm?A. ThreeB. TwoC. FourD. Five50. The author mainly wants to say that _________A. enthusiasm people never get oldB. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy lifeC. enthusiasm is more important than experienceD. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame .DWearing the wrong type of glasses will do harm to your eyes. This is not true for adults(成年人), although incorrect glasses may not be good for children under 10. Ready-made glasses, and not wearing glasses when you should, won’t do harm to your eyes, but you may see better with glasses that are specially made for you.Watching too much television is bad for your eyes. This is not true. People with easily affected eyes may find that they get red and aching from staring at a fixed distance for long periods, but there won’t be any lasting effects.Carrots will help you see in the dark. Carrots are rich in betacarotene(胡萝卜素), which the body can change into vitamin A, too little of which can cause night blindness. However, people in some countries don’t need to worry about vitamin A deficiency(缺乏). Night blindness is more likely to be connected with another vision problem.51.According to the passage, which of the following is true?A.Ready-made glasses will do harm to one’s eyes.B.Wearing the wrong type of glasses may do harm to children’s eyes.C.The human body is unable to change betacarothene into vitamin A.D.Watching too much television may do harm to children’s eyes.52.Night blindness is most likely caused by ______.A. staring for long periodsB. too much betacaroteneC. not enough vitamin AD. vision problems53.According to the article eye problems can be corrected by ______.A. wearing specially-made glassesB. performing eye exercisesC. cutting back on televisionD. eating more carrots54.Watching too much television can cause ______.A. night blindneseB. lasting eye problemsC. a number of vision problemsD. eye trouble for a limited time55.The main purpose of this arricle is to ______.A.tell people of the importance of their eyesB.tell people how to protect their eyesC.tell people to have more carrotsD.tell people something about their eyes上学期9月份月考试卷 高二英语(平行班)第II 卷(35分)第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)My brother Tom was very selfish when he was a little boy.

In contrast to what some might hope, students 55 finish their homework exclaiming that they had great fun. Nor is homework an activity that students choose to undertake. It is 56 by a teacher for students to complete on the teacher’s schedule, with the teacher’s requirements in mind.So to have the fight 57 Will be of great help. Homework means business and the student should expect to work on it seriously. As in the work place, careless efforts and lack of self-discipline are likely to make the 58 impression.Teachers assign homework for 59 purposes. In some cases, teachers seek to review and solidifymaterial being covered in class; homework is also designed to 60 student learning beyond class lessons. As students mature, teachers often assign homework nightly in several subjects. Homework is also used to prepare students to handle new work, 61 in the ease of summer reading. Increasingly, school reforms call for homework to take the form of course projects, thus increasing its 62 to “real-life”job-related activity.Like jobs, homework can be appealing when its resources are well managed. Resources 63 sources of information—textbooks, of course, and increasingly, the Internet—but they also include a quiet space to work, materials and equipment such as calculators, paper or a computer, and others who cohabit (共面存在) in the homework environment.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Saturday 28 April, : Dennis Tito was setting off on his holiday. Mr. Tito’s journey was certainly unusual! So was the transport he chose, and the price of his trip.The 60-year-old multi-millionaire from New York was sitting on board a Russian spaceship. He was on a journey to the International Space Station. It might have been a routine trip for the two astronauts who were traveling with him, but for him it was certainly no ordinary journey. Dennis Tito was the first tourist ever in space, and he had paid the sum of $20 million to go there. As the spacecraft left the earth’s atmosphere, Tito drank a glass of fruit juice to celebrate and looked down at the earth’s blue-green surface. Two minutes later, he was sick. Luckily it was only a minor problem. He soon recovered, and from then on enjoyed a smooth journey. When he arrived at the space station, there was a big smile on his face. “A great trip!”he commented.“I love space.”For a long time space travel was something for heroes. But all this is going to change. Companies like ProSpace are investing large amounts of money in space travel. They want space andspace travel to belong to the public, not just governments. There are other plans, like voyages through space from one side of the world to the other. Maybe we will be able to depart from New York at nine o’clock in the morning, and arrive an hour later-- in Tokyo! Such a schedule would allow the business traveler to return to New York on the same day, and still have eight hours for a meeting! 65.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Business Travelers B.Space Tourists C.A Space Exploration D.A Frightening Adventure 66.According to the passage, Dennis Tito .A.enjoyed his trip very much B.was too sick to eat anything in spaceC.suffered a lot during the trip D.didn’t think the trip was worthwhile 67.Which of the following statements is tree according to the passage?A.Tito was the first American tourist in space.B.Tito contributed all of his wealth to his space trip.C.Tito visited the Russian Space Station during his trip.D.Space travel has become a routine for Tito since then.68.It can be expected from the passage that .A.space travel will belong to the public instead of governmentsB.airplanes will some day reach the speed of space vehiclesC.can will be able to circle the earth within less than an hourD.travel between two places on earth will be made through space69.According to the comments of the Physical Education teacher, Simon .A.is too talkative in the classB.likes to work with his classmatesC.doesn’t exercise his body at the fight timeD.becomes weak because he doesn’t exercise at all70.Which of Simon’s subjects will attract the headmaster’s attention in future?A.Biology and Maths. B.History and French.C.English and Chemistry. D.Physics and Physical Education.71.Which of the following statements best describes Simon?A.He has made great progress in language classes.B.His potential has been fully reflected in science classes.C.His grade in maths makes him a born scientist.D.He needs to improve his attitude on certain subjects.(C)Making fists is relaxing. It dictates the shape of the immediate future; it calms you down (it’s OK, it’s on a list somewhere) and it makes you feel good when you cross something off 0ist-making is standard practice in therapy for depression). It might even help you to get things done too. The more you have to do, the more you need a list and few people with high-powered jobs get by without them. Women always think they’re better at lis ts than men. Men tend to have Tasks which they assemble’ into Action Plans whereas women just have lists of Things To Do.James Oliver, psychologist, has created his own “time management matrix (模式)”. He writes a list of things to do and then organizes them into categories: things that have to be done straight away, other things that it would be good to do today, things that are important but haven’t got to be done immediately and things that are less urgent but tha t he doesn’t want to forget. “Using categories to order the world is the way the human mind works,” he says. “After that, you should divide things into levels of importance.” But he also warns, “If people get too absorbed in making fists, it doesn’t work. They have too many categories and lose their ability to decide which is the most important.”It’s all a question of what works best for you, whether it’s a tidy notebook, a packet of Post-it notes or the back of your hand.Having tried all these, student Kate Rollins relies on a computerized list,which is printed out each morning. “My electronic organizer has changed my life,”she says. “Up to now, I’ve always relied on my good memory, but now that I’m working and studying, I find I’ve got too much to keep in my head.”So what are you waitin g for? No, you’re not too busy to make today the first day of your upgraded time-managed life. In fact, there’s no better time titan the present to begin to take increased control of your work and life. So, get out your pencil and pen and make a list.72.The main purpose of making lists is to .A.help map out one’s future B.divide things into levels of importanceC.treat certain diseases such as depression D.organiz e one’s work and life reasonably73.We can learn from the passage that .A.good memory helps in list makingB.too much’ listing might be misleadingC.women usually make a lot more lists than menD.people with high-powered jobs make lists most74.The word “categories”in paragraph 2 most probably has the same meaning as“”.A.groups B.portions C.items D.areas75.In this passage the author intends to .A.suggest a way of raising one’s living standard B.introduce some ways of business management C.urge people to develop the habit of listing D.warn people not to rely on their memory(D)“Racism (种族歧视) is a grown-up disease,”declares the saying on Ruby Bridge’s website along with a photo of Mrs. Bridge today, a 6-year-old girl four decades ago. In the photo, she is walking up the steps of the William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, a little black girl accompanied by two officers who protect her on her way to school.Her name then was Ruby Nell. It was Nov. 14, 1960. She was the first black child to enroll at this all-white elementary school according to the court order to desegregate in New Orleans schools. Her story is moving -- she was a very courageous child -- and remains a significant proof against intolerance (不宽容) of all kinds. Ruby’s photo brings out another powerful image on her website: Norman Rockwells symbolic painting for Look magazine on Jan. 14, 1964, “The Problem We All Live With.”Rockwell was an illustrator of exceptional skill and charm. He produced a vast number of unforgettable images over a long career, many of them involving children. His American kids are innocent and appealing, but often, at the same time, decidedly naughty. His method was to photograph his models, and the resulting paintings were photographic.But it is revealing to see how the artist slightly changed facial expressions from photo to oil painting in order to make his paintings communicate with the viewer. Communication, even persuasion, lay at the back of his work; this was art for effect.“The Problem We All Live With”belongs to Rockwell’s later work, when he began openly showing his strong belief in liberty. This is a highly persuasive image. Before he arrived at the finalcopy, one sketch (草图) shows the little girl closer to the two officers following her than to those in front. In the finished picture, the girl seems more determined, independent, and untouched . The unfriendly tomatoes thrown on the wall are behind her now, and she, is completely unaffected .76.Ruby Nell was protected by officers on her way to school, because .A .she was a little fighter against racismB .she was very young, short and timidC .she was the first black to study in an all-white schoolD .she was chosen by the com t0be’wi’th white children77.According to the passage, “The Problem We All Live With” is a(n) .A .social program for American childrenB .famous painting by Norman RockwellC .photo displayed on Ruby Bridges’ websiteD .exhibition at the Norman Rockwell Museum 78.The word “desegregate ” in paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.A .fight against the whiteB .end racial separationC .struggle for freedomD .stop the black-white conflict 79.The main topic of this passage is .A .how Rockwell encouraged Ruby to fight against racismB .how Ruby won her fight to go to an all-white schoolC .how Rockwell expressed his protest in .Iris workD .how persuasive Rockwell’s earlier work of art is(E )Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each.green. A few albino people have red or pink eyes, but these are very rare. Many people believe that blue eyes are more delicate than brown eyes. In fact they are just as tough as brown eyes, although they. are 81 We only see part of the eyeball, although the whole eye is as big as a table tennis ball. Light enters the eye through the pupil and passes through the lens. The lens focuses the light onto the retina at theback of the eye. The retina sends the signal to the brain along the optic nerve. The image on the retina is actually upside-down, but the brain corrects it. As we get older our eyesight becomes worse. This82Our eyes are the most important of our five senses. We receive 80% of our information about the world through our eyes. We also send signals to other people with our eyes. Some eye signals are unconscious. When we look at something nice, our pupils get bigger. But when we don’t like something, they become smaller. We cry when we are unhappy and sometimes when we are very happy. But we can also control some eye signals. For example, we can wink at someone or raise an eyebrow. Sunglasses make someone appear mysterious or dangerous, because they hide that eyes and so we can ’t see the signals.83 characters always have large eyes, too. We can ’t actually change our eyes, but we can make them look bigger with make-up. Eye make-up isn’t new. Pic tures in the Pyramids show that the ancient Egyptians both men and women-used it.

It is a good city for cycling because it is flat and there are plenty of places for bicycle parking. Today some people call Amsterdam “City of Bicycles” because of the convenience for bicycles there.In the 1960s, a group of cycling fans had an idea. They believed that it would be better for everybody if cars weren’t allowed in the city center and only bicycles were. They were hopeful that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles white and placed them in lots of neighborhoods around Amsterdam for people to use. Then a problem came-- thieves took all the bicycles within weeks!However, more than thirty years later, the “white bike’ is back in town--this time with a computer chip(芯片) to record its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to insert(插入) a special card. The new “ white bike” is not actually white but is an unusual design with bright colours. The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to another special parking place that has enough room.There is already less traffic in central Amsterdam, because both locals and tourists have been using the white bikes. Instead, thanks to the good ideas of lots of people, like the cycling fans in the 1960s, many people around the world have been enjoying city centre streets without cars many years.4.Amsterdam is called the “City of Bicycles” because of_________.A.the cycling fans thereB.the appearance for bicyclesC.the convenience of bicyclesD.the quality of bicycles5.In the 1960s, some cycling fans hoped bikes could_________.A.be specially designedB.help to save energyC.be placed anywhereD.be painted in different colours6.Why did the first “white bike” plan fail?A.There were not enough parking places.B.The government allowed people to drive cars freely.C.Thieves took all the bikes within weeks.D.People were tired of riding bikes.7.What do people use if they want to take a “white bike” in the city?A.A special computer.B.A common chip.C.A special card.D.A white key.3.(12分)CMr. Guo is a teacher from Xi’an.He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code (二维码).“We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate (使产生)the codes, and in the end everything gets easier.”Said Guo,“When students finish the homework, they keep it on WeChat.Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me.So I can check their work anywhere using my computer or telephone.”The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat. When Guo scans his students’ QR codes, their homework appears on his phone.He finds that their homework becomes more creative, with many pictures, music and even videos.Guo’s students like the new way and think it is interesting.“We are living in the information age.Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun.” said Tingting, a student of Guo’s.“The paper is not easy to keep, but the code is easy to keep and share.” Guo said, “It is worth trying to use new technology in cation itself is a kind of creation.I don’t want my students to fall behind the times.”However, some parents are worried . They are afraid that their children will spend too much time surfing the Internet and less time communicating with teachers . But in fact, it’s unnecessary . Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their h omework.They only use the codes when they hand in their work, which doesn’t take them too much time. Also for teachers, it allows them to check the students’ work at any time.And it’s also an easy way to share homework with other students.8.What makes Mr. Guo special as a teacher?A.He doesn’t give students homework after his class.B.He asks his students to hand in homework in a new way.C.He gives his students much creative homework after class.D.He teaches on WeChat, instead of in the traditional classroom.9. ____________ can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat.A.The QR codesB.The homeworkC.The examination resultD.The teaching10.How do the students do their homework now?A.More quickly.B.More honestly.C.More creatively.D.More easily.11.The writer thinks the new way ___________. .A.is not really necessaryB.has more disadvantagesC.does not work well for teachersD.will benefit both teachers and students4.(12分)DGoing green seems to be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April 22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.12. It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_________.A. they were expected to follow the green fadB. they didn’t know how to educate other peopleC. they were unwilling to reduce their energyD. they needed to perform unusual green tasks13. What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?A. They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.B. They ignored others’ ungreen behavior.C. They chose better chemical cleaners.D. They sold their home-made food.14. What can we infer form the last paragraph?A. The government will give support to the green people.B. The couple may continue their project in the future.C. Some people disagree with the couple’s green ideas.D. Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.15. During the Green Year, according to the text, which of the following is TRUE?A. They never bought meat.B. They cleaned their home by using chemical cleaners.C. They tried to make some food for themselves.D. They sold the things they don’t need on the Internet.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分15分)5.(15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Firstly, what confuses me most is the proper use of tenses. I often mix up tenses, leading to low scores on my writings, What’s more, I s truggle to find appropriate wordsto express myself accurately. Despite my massive efforts to expand my vocabulary, words still fail me when I need to write. In addition, I find it difficult to make my writing well-structured and coherent, which frustrates me a lot.I’d appreciate it if you could give me some practical suggestions on my problems. Looking forward to your reply.Yours,Li Hua第二节(满分25分)Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. In a panic I quickly glued together whatever materials I could find, my hands shaking with the weight of each hasty decision. The finished result looked miserable. However, several of my classmates, including Nate, had created amazingly detailed buildings. They used materials like clay, wood and so on and their constructions were highly praised by Mr. Smith. When I saw their models, I felt even more embarrassed about mine. It was apparent that they had put a lot more time into the assignment than I had.That taught me a great lesson. I learned from that day the importance of deciding on my priorities and budgeting my time. From then on, I tackled things a lot earlier instead of putting things off until tomorrow. As a result, not only did I finish my tasks ontime, but I also felt better because I didn’t have to panic at the last minute. At the end of the semester, my work was chosen by Mr. Smith on another occasion. Seeing my change, my parents and my sister were so proud of me. It dawned on me that getting things done on time instead of being a procrastinator really counted.听力录音稿Text 1M: Do you have any idea what’s wrong with my houseplant It gets plenty of sun and enough plant food...W: Are you watering it too often Remember this plant comes from the desert where there’s hardly any rain.M: Ah..Maybe that’s the problem!Text 2M: It seems to be human nature to pursue what we don’t have.

For example, when I was younger, my cousin always wanted my golden hair, and I wanted dark hair like hers.Text 3W: Hi, are there any tickets left for tonight’s concertM: Sorry, they’re sold out. But I can put you on the waiting list, in case there are any cancellations tonight. Would you like me to do thatW: Oh, yes, please. Let me give you my phone number.Text 4M: Oh, this is so annoying! We’ve been driving around for ages, and I haven’t seen a single space.W: There’s a street party going on in town today. That’s probably why it’s busy. Let’s try the supermarket... You can park there for free as long as you buy something.Text 5W: So, tell me a little bit about the character you played in your new film Last Weekend.M: Well, Jake is a sort of the ‘everyman’ character.

I also listen to white noise, which helps me fall asleep too.Text 7M: Can we do something about the temperature in here I have so many emails to deal with today, but my hands are so cold that I can hardly type my report!W: I know.

But how are we supposed to work in these conditionsW: I guess we always have the choice to work from home.M: True.

Here are the basketball courts. Then just behind them, you’ll see the football field and the running track. And that building over there is our swimming pool.M: Wow! There wasn’t room for anything like this at my previous school. I was on the swimming team, but we had to travel to use the city pool for our practices.W: Well, we’ve certainly got plenty of space.

Text 10On my recent business trip to Shanghai, I met up with a local friend who took me out for a very interesting evening meal. At the Community AI Canteen, everything is done by robots. When you walk in there, you place your order on a screen. Using robotic arms, the intelligent cooking system then cooks your food before packing it up... It even adjusts the temperature, depending on whether you want to eat it straight away or take it home with you! To pay, you place your food on a smart cash desk, which immediately calculates (计算) the cost. There’s even a 24-hour noodle machine just outside, which offers hot and fresh food around the clock. The canteen offers a huge amount of choices and the dishes taste great. It is really fun to get “a taste of the future”. However, I’m not sure I would like all restaurants to be run by robots. I can see the benefits for busy families or office workers needing a quick lunch, but what about lonely older people who would miss the human touch I do think we will see more places like this in the future, though. At best, a human waiter can serve around 100 people in a day. The AI system can serve double that figure, making it good for business.荆州中学2024-2025学年高二上学期9月月考英语试题命题人:审题人:(全卷满分150分考试时间120分钟)第一部分听力(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。

I was in a race of some kind,and was trying to balance the awkward little tricycle down a narrow street.People were hanging out of their apartment windows screaming down at me,―Just give up,you fool! You’ll never make it with that little bike. ‖ I kept telling them repeatedly,―All I have is this three-wheeled tricycle.‖ I kept tipping (倾斜) to the side,but I kept my balance and ignored the people who were making fun of me.Then at one point a man left his home and ran out into the middle of the street. ―This bike will take forever at the speed you're going! ‖ He continued screaming words of discouragement right in my face. I replied,―I must push forward;I must get to the finish line! ‖I held on as tightly as possible and rode straight ahead with great determination.I had unshakable faith that I would make it! I also knew it didn't matter how long it would take,because I knew it was worth it. At that point,the dream came to an abrupt endI awoke and remembered the dream very clearly. I also remembered that the night before I was feeling discouraged — but now I felt happy and peaceful,and my spirit felt alive with hope.I think we've all been given small tricycles as adults,and we struggle to balance our lives down the dark,narrow streets of mortality (有限的生命). I now consider the tricycle to be my three wheels of hope. The dream has given me courage and hope that I will finish the race inch by inch. I know I must never give up,but press forward always.36. According to the passage,what dream did the writer have?A. She struggled to ride a little bike with three wheels.B. She competed in a bike race in the Olympic Games.C.

What did the writer learn from her dream?A. Keeping balance is important for a bike learner.B. The race will be finished inch by inch.C. Adults can’t ride a child-sized bike.D. She must struggle on,however difficult life is.39. The purpose of writing this passage is to _______ .A. expect readers to have faith in themselvesB. tell readers an unforgettable dreamC. prove that dreams can’t be believedD. explain why people have a dreamBSanta Fe, the capital of New Mexico, U.S.A., is in the central part of the state, on the Santa Fe River, which flows into the Rio Grands 35 kilometres west of thecity .More than two thousand metres above sea level, it lies in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains with the Ortiz Mountains to the southeast.Santa Fe was founded in 1609 by the Spanish(西班牙人) on an old Indian village . In 1680 the Indians seized the place but only held it for twelve years before the Spanish retook it .The city remained under Spanish rule until Mexico won its independence (独立)in 1821. From then on it was a Mexican city until 1846 when it was taken over by U.S. troops.With a population of 48, 953, Santa Fe is now the second largest city in the state. Because of its sunny weather, rich history and surrounding mountains, it is a good place for holiday makers. Besides hunting and skating in the mountains people enjoy shopping in the Indian and Spanish shops, which brings a large income to the city every year. In summer there is an international opera (歌剧) season when operas are shown in a partly-roofed, open-air theatre daily for people from all over the world.40. At present Santa Fe belongs to _______.A. IndiaB. MexicoC. Spain (西班牙)D. the United States41. Santa Fe was under the rule of the Mexicans in _______.A. 1675B. 1695C. 1816D. 183342.

Which of the following are not the reasons why Santa Fe is a good place for holiday makers?A. Pleasant weather.B. colorful historyC. opera showsD. the second largest cityCHotdogs may be a favorite food in America —but when it comes to eating them ,the Japanese are the best on the earth . At the 2001 World Hotdog Eating Championships , Takeru Kobayashi ate 50 hotdogs in just 12 minutes to set a new world record ! That’s more than one hotdog every 15 seconds ! He’s been unbeaten in the competition since then .What’s even more amazing is that Takeru Kobayashi isn’t a big fat person. Takeru is a thin , 131 pound , eating-machine who had to beat 19 other eaters from around the world . For being the world champion , Takeru Kobayashi won the championship belt and most importantly a year’s supply of hotdogs !Eating contest organizers say it’s very rare for someone to get hurt in one of these eating contests . But it’s still pretty easy to get injured by a hotdog .At a Toronto Blue Jays Baseball game , several fans were injured during a free hotdog hand out . Hotdogs were fired into the crowd using an air cannon (大炮). But several of the hotdogs exploded when they landed—flying ketchup , and pieces of sausage all over the hungry baseball fans !!44.How many at least did Takeru eat within a minute in the contest ?A.more than 3 B.more than 2 C.more than 4 D.more than 5 45.What did the word ―unbeaten‖ in paragraph 1 mean ?A.never fight with others B.always fight with othersC.never be defeated by others D.always be defeated by others 46.According to the text , he got as the world champion .A.a gold medal B.a seat beltC.a eating machine D.hot dogs for free the whole year 47.Takeru Kobayshi is .A.an American B.a big fat personC.a machine D.the world champion for eating hot dogsDI had an experience some years ago which taught me something about the ways people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to perform the duties at two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died "full of years", as the Bible would say. Their homeshappened to be near each other, so I paid condolence (吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.At the first home, the son of the deceased (已故的) woman said to me, "If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It's my fault that she died." At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, "If only I hadn't insisted on my mother's going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the change of climate, was more than she could take. It's my fault that she's dead."When things don't turn out as we would like them to, it is very possible to think that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Priests know that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course – keeping Mother at home, delaying the operation -- would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?48. What is said about the two deceased elderly women?A. They lived out a natural life.B. They died of extreme tiredness after the long plane ride.C. They didn't get used to the change in weather.D. They died due to lack of care by family members.49. The author had to conduct the two women's funerals probably because __A. he wanted to comfort the two familiesB. he was an official from the communityC. he had great sympathy for the deceasedD. he was priest of the local church50. People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because __A. they couldn't find a better way to express their grief (悲伤)B. they believe that they were responsibleC. they had ignored the natural course of eventsD. they didn't know things often turn out in the opposite direction第II卷第一节单词填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)51.He speaks with a strong southern a .52.He didn't work hard all the term.

It is very interesting and we enjoy watching it very much.Unfortunately, one day we were attentively watching the programme, completely absorbed in the breathtaking adventures of the hero and guessing what would happen next when suddenly the programme was interrupted by advertisements. We were all very annoyed about this. What an irritation!In this material world, enterprises need to make their products known to the public so that people can buy their products. At the same time, TV stations need to broadcast commercials to cover their own expenses. Broadcasting advertisements is an important way which will benefit the both sides. But I don't think it a very wise idea to wedge advertisements into the middle of a TV programme. This will do great harm to the audiences.The advertisement law was proclaimed not long ago. It states clearly that it is illegal to insert any advertisement during the showing of a programme. Every TV station should abide strictly by this law. But some TV stations just ignore this and pursue their own economic interests.Moreover., the commercials can hardly have the desired effect. By being shown illegally, they are interrupting the programme and this will lead the audience to feel annoyed and disgusted with the product being advertised even if they have paid attention to it.Personally I don't mind watching TV advertisements. In fact, some of them are very interesting. I just think that the TV station should arrange the advertisements in the correct way. The interests of their audience should be their priority.36.One day the writer was watching an interesting TV film when _____.A. someone knocked at the doorB. the TV set was broken downC. some advertisements interrupted the programmeD.the local television station went wrong37.Which of the following is correct according to the articleA.The writer complained only the local television station.B.What the writer described not only happened in a local station.C.The writer loved the hero very muchD.The writer couldn't guess what happened to the hero next.38.Advertisements can _______.A.make products known to general publicB.bring TV stations, Radio stations and newspaper a lot of moneyC.also help enterprises get economic interestsD.All the above are correct39.The writer _______.A.hates the advertisements on TVB.likes the advertisements on TV but not at the time he watches TV programC.didn't want the TV station to telecast advertisementsD.wanted to make a suggestion that TV station telecast at a more suitable time40.If the advertisements telecast ______.A.at the wrong moment they can't achieve the desired effectB.at the right moment TV viewers will dislike themC.at the beginning of a programme they have the desired effectD.at the end of the programme they will be liked by TV viewersBMr Richards worked in a shop which sold, cleaned and repaired hearing-aids (助听器). One day an old gentleman entered and put one down in front of him without saying a word."What's the matter with it "Mr Richards said. The man did not answer. Of course Mr Richards thought that the man must be deaf and that his hearing-aid must be faulty, so he said again, more loudly," What's wrong with your hearing-aid, sir " Again the man said nothing, so Mr Richards shouted his question again as loudly as he could.The man then took a pen and a piece of paper and wrote: "It is not necessary to shout when you're speaking to me . My ears are as good as yours. This hearing-aid is my wife's, not mine. I've just had a throat operation, and my problem is not that I can't hear, but that I can't speak."41.One day an old gentleman went to Mr Richards' shop _______.to put down a hearing-aidto have his wife's hearing-aid repairedto get new hearing-aidto change a hearing-aid42.Why didn't the old man answer Mr Richards' questionBecause _______.A.he didn't understand his questionB.his mouth was painfulC.he was taken as a deafD.there was something wrong with his throat43.Mr Richards shouted his question to the old man again and again ______.A.so as to make himself heard clearlyB.but the old man refused to answerC.in order to make sure whether the old man was a deafD.so the old man spoke out the fact to him44.The old man made Mr Richards understand what he wanted to do _______.A. by hearingB. in writingC. by a penD. with his hearing-aid45.Mr Richards had thought that the old man ______.A.couldn't hearB.couldn't speakC.couldn't express his meaning clearly with wordsD.wouldn't tell him the truth篇章结构C46 Throughout history, the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, experts estimate (估计) that nearly two-thirds of the world's population live within 80 kilometres of the sea coast. 47 Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man's needs.48 Oil and gas expirations have existed for nearly 30 years. Valuable quantities ofminerals, such as manganese (锰) , iron, nickel and copper exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined. Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce a large quantity of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy.49 Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydro-electric power. Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. The new under-sea technology is providing divers with diving suits and under-sea chambers that are kept at sea-level pressure. 50The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year 2010, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.A. In the modem technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.B. The sea is wide and rich, and it's also a place where life begins.C. The development of strong new materials has made this possible.D. Man is a land animal, but it is also closely tied to the sea.E.

河南省洛阳市第一高级中学2016-2017学年高二英语9月月考试题一、阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AWhat does family mean to you? Could you capture it in a photograph? If so, our great new competition is for you! All you have to do is take a picture that sums up your sense of family life.The competition will be judged by the RD (Reader’s Digest) team and award-winning photo-grapher Barry Marsden. To get your creative juices flowing, here are two of our regular photographers’ tips for taking g reat pictures.Pal HansenThe most important thing is to carry a camera around with you at all times. Use manual (手动的) settings as much as possible. Now that everything is digital I’d also say, “Shoot as much as possible,” because it doesn’t cost anything.Michelle McCarronKids find wonder in the simplest things, so as a photographer it helps to be ready for those moments. The connection across generations is sometimes best captured in a photograph. Frame your subject well. Get close to the action, or your subject, and choose your angle (角度) carefully. A slightly odd angle can make a photo different.HOW TO ENTER★Take a clear photo with either a phone or digital camera. Send it to rdphotocomp@readersdigest. by 5 pm, August 30, 2014. Please include a brief explanation of who’s in the entry (参赛作品).★There are two categories — one for adults and one for under-18s.★In the adult category, the winner will receive £500. The under-18 winner will receive £250 of high-street vouchers (代金券) for a store of their choice.Rules:Please make sure that pictures are not published before.If you are under 16 you must ask your parent’s permission to enter this competition.We will use entries in all print and electronic media. We cannot return your entry.Entry is not open to employees of Vivat Direct Ltd (trading as Reader’s Digest) and all other persons associated with this competition, their immediate families, and relatives living in an employee’s household. The judges’ decision is final.1. What do we know about the photo competition?A. It is designed for readers of RD.B. Entries must be about family.C. Photos must be taken by a camera.D. Pal Hansen is one of its judges.2. To take par t in the competition, one should _____.A. be 18 years old or aboveB. send in his entry in AugustC. ask his family’s permissionD. give a description of his entry3. According to the text, winners of the competition will _____.A. each win£500B. get their entries backC. see their pictures publishedD. be offered some vouchersBAs each semester begins, my colleague greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.“You make only one first impression,” he says. So while the re st of the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, the first week he presents a different image.His thought is that students will remember their first meet positively and more readily think highly of him as the semester goes on because that favorable first impression has an influence on them.The sequence (顺序) that we meet matters in how we judge subsequent (后来的) information. The big influence of first impressions is related to the halo effect, where the perception (看法) of positive qualities in one thing or part gives rise to the perception of similar qualities in related things or in the whole.Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to collect money for a worthy cause. You call that person because you think she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to think that the two are related.The halo effect is powerful, but it is questionable whether it matters much in long-term relationships, such as that between teacher and student. While dressing up may make students think the teacher must know his subject matter because he creates a professional first impression, the effect wears thin if the person turns out to be a poor teacher after all.First impressions matter but they don’t ha ve the final word. Facts speak louder. If you had never seen or heard of Einstein, the first time you saw him your impression would most likely be negative. Now his face is connected with genius (天才), not madness because he is the person who has come to define what genius is.The problem is that few of us are Einsteins and we often don’t get the chance to changea negative first impression.4. The author explains the halo effect mainly by _____.A. giving an exampleB. making a comparisonC. setting down general rulesD. following the order of importance5. In the author’s eyes, the halo effect _____.A. is surprisingly powerfulB. matters more in the long runC. may affect our judgment of othersD. makes some teachers irresponsible6. The author uses the example of Einstein to show the importance of _____.A. appearanceB. truthC. impressionsD. fairness7. The author seems to advise readers _____.A. to mind their first impressionsB. not to judge a book by its coverC. not to follow others’ judgmentsD. to pay no attention to the halo effectCThe first summer job is often a signal that you’re on your way to adulth ood, and it’s also a method for earning money to pay for what you dream of.

Sian Beauchamp, 20, is a woman who has done her intern time. She had three weeks’ unpaid work experience at Primark’s marketing head office. Now she has a job in the lingerie department of the same office. Now Sian has her say:Qualifications (资历) are not enough to get a job. Before my internship I had no idea what working in marketing was actually like. There are things you can’t learn unless you’re actually there, and employers expect that in interviews.I wouldn’t be where I am now without doing my unpaid internship. It was part of my degree (学位) at the Fashio n Retail Academy. The course was valuable but there are some things that can’t be done in the classroom.I don’t think all internsh ips need to be paid. I was at Primark to learn, so it was all right that I wasn’t getting a salary —you wouldn’t expec t to be paid at school. The experience was more beneficial for me than it was for Primark. People who worked there were kindly giving up their time to show me what I needed to do and teach me about the industry I was hoping to go into.In the morning they showed me how to do the tasks and in the afternoon I’d try to do them myself. I was doing tasks such as picking products that I thought would be suitable for sending to more stores, placing orders for suppliers and sending products out.At the end I was given a favorable review and the company told me to keep in touch. When I finished my course I applied for two jobs, including one at Primark. The other job interview was discouraging but I felt more comfortable with the one at Primark because it was familiar.Overall, my experience was positive and helped me get on the path to a job I really enjoy.12.

She now works at Primark.C. She sends products to different stores every day.D. She is taking a course at the Fashion Retail Academy.15. How did Primark probably feel about Sian’s performance as an intern?A. It caused them a lot of trouble.B. It needed to be improved.C. It was nothing special.D.
