I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretarytold me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone,“Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah, who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And sh e swept it into the wastebasket.I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth….?She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room--- if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go.”Then she t urned to me. Kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.After watching crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood(情绪) had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call.

Mike McClure walked into Sarasota Bay for a little fishing on a beautiful day last April. This afternoon, the water was shallow enough at low tide that McClure could easily walk 100 yards offshore and cast (投) his line in any direction.Near sunset, still without a fish, he decided to turn back. Rather than turn to his earlier course, he chose a more direct path toward shore, thinking the bay wouldn't get deeper along the way. Instead, he was trapped. He tried to walk in different directions, but shallower water eluded (避开) him. Finally, he decided his safest choice was to head straight for land."Within about five steps, the water was coming in through the top of the waders (高筒防水胶靴)," says McClure.He felt the deadweight(重物) of the flooding waders pulling him down and knew that if he didn't get out of them, he would drown. But he failed to kick his way out of the waders. Instead, they pulled him completely below the surface.Back onshore, Eliza Cameron, 19, Loren Niurka Mora, 20, and Caitlin Petro, 20, had been watching McClure fish as they rested on the grass after a long week of classes. They saw McClure go under and then heard him cry, "Help!"The three friends kicked off their shoes and ran into the bay. They were all good swimmers, but all hid a fear that he might pull them down too because they'd have to dive to save him.When they reached him, he'd managed to kick himself out of the waders, but his eyes had partly rolled back. Cameron and Mora each hooked (钩住) an arm under his shoulders, while Petro supported his back and held his hand. Then the three friends tried their best to tug (拉) him towards shore. Finally, they all returned to the shore safely.【1】Mike McClure didn't turn back by his earlier course because .A.he wanted to choose a short courseB.his earlier course was dangerousC.he just wanted to take a riskD.he knew where the water was deep【答案】A【2】 What directly trapped Mike McClure in the bay?A.His wrong decision.B.The coming high tide.C.His waders' being flooded.D.The depth of water.【答案】C【3】During the rescue, .A.the three women were afraid of being trapped in the waterB.Cameron and Petro helped catch Mike McClure's armsC.the three women removed Mike McClure's wadersD.Mike McClure still wore his flooding waders【答案】A【4】What’s the main idea of this passage?A.Enjoy fishing on a beautiful day.B.Help others when they are in trouble.C.A terrible experience during fishing.D.How to rescue people when they’re drowning.【答案】C10. Last year, a report by a committee of education experts said that a lot of American students cannot write well. The report noted the concerns of business leaders and teachers. The experts said that more students should have to pass a writing test before they can finish high school. They pointed out that major college entrance tests are changing now to include a writing part.Educators know that teaching students to write well is not easy. One problem is the amount of time needed to read through large amounts of work. So some companies have developed computer programs. These can grade student writing much more quickly than a person can. Writing tests can also cost less to carry out by computer than paper-and-pencil. These computer systems are known as e-readers. They use artificial (人工的) intelligence to think in a way like teachers. In the state of Indiana, computer grading of a statewide writing test began with a test of the system itself. For two years, both a computer and humans graded the student writing. Officials say there was almost no difference between the computer grades and those given by the human readers.The entrance test commonly used by business schools, the GMAT, already uses e-readers. The GRE and TOEFL tests might start; officials are deciding. The GRE is the Graduate Record Examination. TOEFL is the Test of English as a Foreign Language.Systems are also being used to grade writing in college classes. The computers read a few hundred examples of student writing already graded by humans. Then the systems compare new writings against those already examined.How do teachers feel all about this? Many say machines can never do the job as well as people can. A computer can find spelling and grammar mistakes. But these teachers say it can never really understand what a writer is trying to say. Critics say a program cannot follow athought or judge humor or understand a beautifully expressed idea.But inventors of the programs say computer grading guarantees that each piece of writing is graded in the same way. They also say the systems are meant to judge knowledge more than creativity.【1】What do the teachers think of the computer system?A.They think highly of the computer systems.B.They think that computers cannot grade writing as well as people.C.They believe that computers can understand a writer’s idea wellD.They are glad computers will spare their effort to correct students’ school work.【答案】B【2】From the first paragraph we can conclude that _________.A.American students’ writing ability is being improvedB.American students’ writing ability is not satisfactoryC.business leaders and teachers are not worried about students’ writingD.all college entrance tests will include a writing part【答案】B【3】Which of the following is NOT the advantage of e-readers?A.Saving much of teachers’ time.B.Saving a lot ofmoney. C.Being fair andobjective.D.Appreciatinghumor and beauty【答案】D【4】The best title of this passage might be _________.A.Computer-graded Writing B.Human-graded WritingC.How to Improve Students’ Writing D.Advantages of E-readers【答案】A11. Mary,_______here---everybody else, stay away you are.A.come B.comes C.to come D.coming【答案】D【解析】略12.—Would she mind playing against her former teammates?— . She is willing to play against any tough players.A.I think so B.I’m not surprised C.Of course D.Not likely【答案】D【解析】略13. _________ go straight on to university, why not get some work experience first?A.More than B.Other than C.Rather than D.Better than【答案】C【解析】14.I had been so _________ with my work that I forgot to buy a gift for my daughter’s birthday, which I had promised to.A.occupied B.devoted C.accompanied D.buried【答案】A【解析】略15.卷Ⅱ(满分25分)Ⅴ.写作(共三节,满分25分)第一节: 单词拼写(共10小题,每小题0.5分,满分5分)根据下列句子,写出空缺处各单词的正确形式,每空一词。

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. Tall people want to be shorter, and short people want to be taller... W: I know. 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. He doesn’t have any special talents. In fact, he lives a pretty boring life, until his old friend Maggie returns to town...Text 6M: Can I borrow your phone for a second Mine is dead, and I can’t find my charger.W: Sure.M: Thanks. Hey, what’s wrong with your screen It’s all dark and the colors look strange.W: Oh! I’ve been using an app called “Sunset” to help me sleep at night.M: Really HowW: Well, studies show that too much blue light from screens can make sleeping difficult. So, in the evenings, the app puts a red filter (滤光器) over the screen to cancel it out.M: Oh, interesting. Does it helpW: Yeah, I think so! 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. I’ve been struggling too. But the heat probably won’t be turned on until the end of the month.M: Why notW: It’s a part of the company’s plans to save energy.M: Well, I can understand that. But how are we supposed to work in these conditionsW: I guess we always have the choice to work from home.M: True. But before my youngest daughter starts school, it’s just too difficult for me to do that. I wouldn’t be able to focus.W: Then I think we should talk to the boss about what can be done, otherwise people will start getting ill.Text 8W: Well, here we are! I can’t wait to get inside and see what’s on offer!M: I heard this year’s Mini Fair is going to be even bigger and better than last year’s. It won’t disappoint us.W: Oh really I had to go to a boring work event at that time, so I couldn’t come last year.M: Yes! I got so many things for my model train set.W: Like whatM: Well, the coolest things I got were some tiny little trees. They looked so real.W: Wow!M: I’m hoping t he guy who sells them is here again this year.W: I hope so! Now that I’m satisfied with the inside part of my dolls’ house, I want to focus on creating the garden. So, it would be great to get some little plants and trees. What about youM: I want some little model cars and people to add to my train station scene. But I need to find a toilet first.W: Over there, by the restaurant hall.M: Great. Meet you in five minutes, by the ticket desk.Text 9W: Hi, are you here for the tourM: Yes, I’m Michael Green. Are you the head girlW: That’s right. I’m Jayne Palmer. You look a bit older than the kids I usually show around the school!M: Ha-ha! Yeah, I’ll be sixteen next month.W: My birthday is in October, too!M: ReallyW: Yeah! So, why are you changing schoolsM: Well, my mom got a new job in this area, so we’re moving here. I’ve heard good things about this place.W: Well, as you can see, we have some great facilities... 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. The arts teaching here is also excellent. We have a music studio and our own theater. M: Amazing!W: So, where would you like to go firstM: Well, I’m quite interested to see the science facilities. I’m hoping for a career in medicine.W: Okay, great! Well, the laboratories have all been updatedrecently, so we’ve got some really good equipment. Follow me. 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。

Firstly, technology has made education more accessible. With online courses and digital libraries, students can learn anytime and anywhere, breaking the limitations of traditional classroom settings. Secondly, technology enhances the efficiency of learning. Tools like educational software and apps can personalize learning experiences, catering to individual learning styles and paces. Moreover, technology facilitates collaboration. Students can work together on projects using cloud-based platforms, regardless of their physical locations.However, the integration of technology in education also presents challenges. It requires continuous professional development for teachers to keep up with the latest educational technologies. Additionally, not all students have equal access to technological resources, which can exacerbate educational inequality.In conclusion, while technology brings numerous benefits to modern education, it is crucial to address the associated challenges to ensure that it serves as a tool for equitable and effective learning.。

Tens of thousands of Chinese students have gone to foreign countries to study. Many people are trying their best to apply to go abroad.There are many advantages in attending schools abroad. First, the students who have studied abroad can act as bridges between people of different cultures. Second, we can learn much more advanced science and technology from foreign countries. Third, we can learn foreign languages more quickly.However, there are some disadvantages. Most of the students are too young to live alone without any living experience. Besides, being far away from their home country, they may feel lonely and homesick. Of course the costs are much higher there than in the native country. In spite of these, advantages are more than disadvantages. In my opinion, it is advisable to attend schools abroad.【解析】略4.

ADictionaries play an important part in learning a language. Most dictionaries will tell you a number of things about a language. There are three important things. These three things are spelling, pronunciation and meaning.First, a dictionary will tell you the spelling of a word. If you are not sure about the spelling of a word, you can try to find the correct spelling in a dictionary. Words are listed in an alphabetical order--- a, b, c and so on. For example, on a dictionary page the “poor” comes before “poverty” and the word “poverty” comes before the “power”. The words are always given in alphabetical order.The second thing, a dictionary will tell you the pronunciation. Most dictionaries give phonetic (语音的), or sound alphabet. The phonetic alphabet shows pronunciation. The third thing, a dictionary will tell you the meaning of words. You can look up a word and find out what it means. Many words have more than one meaning, and a good dictionary will tell you all of the word’s meanings. For example, in English the common word “get” has over 20 different meani ngs.1. Many words have_______.A.few meaningsB.one meaningC.no meaningD.several meanings2. A good dictionary will tell you_____A.more of word’s pronunciationB.more of the word’s spelling.C.more of the word’s meaningsD.more of grammar3. Phonetic alphabets are used to show ________A. handwritingsB.meaningsC. pronunciationD. spellingBNowadays, almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people’s health. However, not all the persons know that nois e is also a kind of pollution, and this is harmful to people’s health, too.People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf today. However, scientist believe that 10%of workers in Britain are being deafened by the noise where they work. Many of the workers who print newspapers and books, and who weave cloth become deaf. Quite a few people living near airports also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65-year-old persons, for these young people like to listen to pop music and pop music is a kind of noise, Besides, noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people ill or even drive them mad.It is said a continuous noise of over 85 decibels can cause deafness. Now the government in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels.In China, the government is trying to solve not only air and water pollution problems but also noise problems.4. The text is mainly about ______.A. noise pollutionB. water pollutionC. white pollutionD. air pollution5. According to the text, a continuous noise of ____ decibels can make people deaf.A. less than 85B. less than 65C. more than 85D.about 656. Ten percent of the workers in Britain are being deafened because ______.A. they live near airportsB. they are working in noisy placesC. they are busy in listening to other’s talkD. they often listen to pop musicCFailure is probably the most fatiguing(令人疲劳) experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tired than not succeeding, being blocked, not moving ahead. It is an evil circle. Failure causes fatigue, and fatigue makes it harder to get to work, which adds to the fatigue.We experience this tiredness in two main ways: start-up fatigue and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task that we are forced to take up. Either because it is too boring or because it is too difficult, we avoid it. And the longer we put it off, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, although not actually physical, not something in our muscles andbones. The cure is obvious, though perhaps not easy to apply: willpower exercise. The moment I find myself turning away from a job, or putting it under a pile of things I have to do, I clear my desk of everything else and attack the difficult item first. To prevent start-up fatigue, always treat the most difficult job first.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Here we a re willing to get started, but we can’t seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear to be insurmountable and however hard we work, we fail again and again. The mounting experience of failure carries with it an ever-increasing burden of mental fatigue.

But scientists have warned that as the hole closes up in the next few decades, temperatures on the continent could rise by around 3 ℃ on average, with melting ice contributing to a global sea level increase of up to 1.4 metres.In the past decades the western Antarctic has seen rapid ice loss as the world has warmed, but the other parts of the continent have, paradoxically, been cooling, resulting in a 10% increase in ice in the seas around the region. This is because the hole in the ozone layer has increased cold winds in Antarctica, making much of the continent surface colder than usual.But now that the gasses that cause the ozone hole have been banned, scientists expect the hole to repair itself within the next 50 to 60 years. By then the cooling effect will have faded out and the Antarctic will face the full impact of global warming. This means an increase in average air temperatures of around 3 ℃ and a reduction in sea ice by around a third.The biggest threat to the continent comes from warming seas. Robert Johnson, a scientist who monitors Antarctica ice sheets, said, "The ice sheets in Antarctica are hundreds of metres thick. But once warm ocean waters start flowing underneath, the ice will begin thinning and could break up very quickly." Thinning ice sheets cause ice to break away from the continent and to melt even faster. Escaping ice from western Antarctica has already resulted in a 10% rise in global sea level in recent decades.Johnson believes that international action to reduce global warming is required immediately or it may be too late. "Everything is connected - Antarctica may be a long way away but it is an important part of the Earth's system," said Johnson. "It contains 90% of the world's ice, 70% of the world's fresh water and that is enough, if it melts completely, to raise sea levels by 63 metres."Even in a worse-case situation scientists don't expect the ice to entirely disappear, but predict that, because of the melting ice sheets, average sea level rise will be around 1.4 metres higher by the end of the century.11.
