湖南省大联考2012长沙一中高三4次月考英语试卷答案

湖南省长沙市第一中学2023-2024学年高三上学期第二次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解“Unfortunately, 85 percent of what makes us attractive or less to mosquitoes(蚊子) is hardwired in our genetic circuit board,” says Winegard, author of The Mosquito: A Human History of Our Deadliest Predator. Still, there are ways to outsmart summer’s most annoying party crashers, especially if all you want is to enjoy an evening on your patio (露台).Know your blood typeOnly female mosquitoes feed on humans, and for good reason: The proteins in your blood help them grow and mature their eggs. “She’s just being a good mom,” Wineguard says. “People with blood type O are her top of choice. They get bitten twice as much as people with blood type A, with blood type B falling in between.”Stay cool“Mosquitoes hunt by both smell and sight,” Wineguard says. “They can smell the carbon dioxide and see the heat signature of their target.” Avoiding alcohol can keep your body temperature lower— making you harder to find — so consider choosing a cocktail instead.Wear light colorsAvoiding dark clothing can also keep you cooler, but that’s not the only reason it may offer relief. Mosquitoes, like many biting flies, are attracted to darker colors. The thinking behind this is that the animals they typically feed upon are larger, dark-bodied mammals(哺乳动物).Get rid of standing waterEven a glass of drinking water left on the deck can become a breeding ground for mosquito eggs — and mother mosquitoes lay about 100 eggs at a time. “They don’t need very much at all to breed. It can be a backyard toy , like a truck that has a bit of water in it, or a crushed pop can,” says Winegard. If you get rid of it, they’ll go somewhere else to lay their eggs.1．What’s the intention of this text?A．To introduce a new book.B．To offer professional tips.C．To analyze a study of insects.D．To suggest throwing a party.2．Why does a female mosquito feed on human blood?A．To hatch more eggs.B．To raise a large family.C．To identify blood types.D．To fully develop her body.3．What can we learn about mosquitoes according to Winegard?A．They can trace the smell of alcohol.B．They have energy-locating abilities.C．They feed off dark-bodied animals.D．They need abundant water to breed.The Malaysian actress, Michelle Yeoh, 60, shared some wisdom with the American Film Institute’s newest graduating class in a speech as she accepted an honorary doctorate of fine arts at the class of 2022 graduation ceremony.She recalled her early years in the industry. After an injury dashed her dreams of going into ballet, Yeoh bounced back at a gym where several stuntmen(特技替身演员)trained and ended up learning some tricks of the trade from them.“The first thing they taught me what to do was to tuck and roll, then how to fall on my side, and then how to fall on my back. And after a while, it dawned on me that they were teaching me how to fall,” she recalled. “And they said to me, ‘How are you going to go up if you don’t know how to come down?’” “That lesson sticks with me to this day. I had to learn how to fall. Well, you could say I learned it in my bones, literally,” Yeoh added.The actress mentioned jumping off a 20-foot highway overpass for one stunt, in which she over-rotated (旋转), causing her back to fold in half and a stunt went wrong. “I didn’t land properly, but I completed the scene,” she said.“These moments taught me perseverance, courage and humility,” she said. “They also taught me to hone my skills and eventually progress to the point where I was running on rooftops and jumping onto moving trains. I’m not asking you all to do that, okay? What I want to share with you today is that our slips and stumbles(绊跌)are the secrets to our flight. Trust me, that’s part of the deal. Success without failure is called luck. It cannot really be repeated or relied upon. It is from failure that we learn and grow,” Yeoh continued.The Crazy Rich Asians star concluded her speech: “Be courageous, take chances, break barriers, be proud of what makes you unique.” “And most importantly, don’t be afraid to fall, for you are learning to fly,” Yeoh said.4．What can we learn about Michelle Yeoh from the first two paragraphs?A．She was tricked by several stuntmen.B．She was passionate about working out in a gym.C．She won a doctor’s degree in fine arts despite her old age.D．She was terribly defeated by an injury and discouraged in her early years.5．What lesson did Michelle Yeoh learn from the stuntmen?A．God helps those who help themselves.B．Misfortune might be a blessing in disguise.C．Successful people are learning experiences with others.D．The greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.6．What does the underlined word “hone”in paragraph 5 mean?A．Believe.B．Sharpen.C．Restore.D．Dominate. 7．What are the keys to our success according to the text?A．Mistakes and failure.B．Luck and humility.C．Courage and pride.D．Opportunities and skills.“It’s a natural question,”Dr. Holt-Lunstad said the “ideal”number of friends. “Just like we have guidelines and recommendations for the amount of sleep we get and how physically active we are, this is health relevant.” While she and other friendship researchers admit there aren’t many studies that have specifically tackled the question of how many friends people should aim for, those that have been done offer a range.Dr. Degges-white recently conducted a survey of 297 adults, which has not been published or subject to peer review but found that 55 percent of participants believed two to three close friends was ideal, while 31 percent thought four to six was was the goal. But friendship and intimacy are subjective, and there isn’t a widely used scale researchers share to define those concepts across studies. It’s also unclear how social media factors into all of this, as research suggests the size of a person’s online network may not have any meaningful impact on their perceived well-being.While friendship research offers some standards, it may be more useful for most of us to consider if you need more friends. Dr. Marisa Franco recommends starting with a fairly obvious but powerful question: Do I feel lonely? “Also, different people bring out different parts of us. So when you have a larger friend group, you’re able to experience this side of yourself that loves golf, and this side that loves cars,” she added. “If you feel like your identity has sort of shrunk, or you’re not feeling quite like yourself, that might indicate youneed different types of friends.”Of course, making friends in adulthood isn’t always easy. Research shows people struggle with it because they find it difficult to trust new people. For those reasons, it is often easier to start by reawakening old relationships. The amount of time you actually spend with your friends matters, too. Franco suggests that on average, very close friendships tend to take around 200 hours to develop. But spending time with friends you feel ambivalent (情绪复杂的) about — because they’re unreliable, critical, competitive or any of the many reasons people get under our skin — can be bad for your health.8．Which statement would Dr. Holt-Lunstad probably agree with?A．Healthy friendships contribute to quality sleep.B．There have been guidelines for making friends.C．Two to six close friends may be the most ideal.D．Friendships can be crucial factor in well-being.9．How was Dr. Degges-White’s survey?A．It summarized the statistics in previous studies.B．It set standards on the exact number of friends.C．It distinguished between friendship and intimacy.D．It dismissed the influences of social media factors.10．According to Franco, you have to make new friends if _________.A．your friend circle is large enough B．you have a wide range of hobbiesC．your personal identities are restricted D．you lead an unhappy adulthood life 11．What matters in maintaining close friendships according to Franco?A．Quantities of time.B．Meeting frequency.C．Your healthy moods.D．Personalities of friends.Many robots track objects by “sight” as they work with them, but optical (视觉的) sensors can’t take in an item’s entire shape when it’s in the dark or partially blocked from view. Now a new low-cost technique lets a robotic hand “feel” an unfamiliar object’s form — and skillfully handle it based on this information alone.Roboticist, Xiaolong Wang in University of California, San Diego and his team wanted to find out if complex coordination (协调) could be achieved in robotics using only simple touch data. The researcher attached 16 contact sensors, each costing about $12, to the palmand fingers of a four -fingered robot hand. These sensors simply indicate if an object is touching the hand or not. “While one sensor doesn’t catch much, a lot of them can help you capture different aspects of the object,” Wang says. In this case, the robot’s task was to rotate (旋转) items placed in its palm.The researchers first connected a large volume of touch data as a virtual robot hand practiced rotating objects, including ball. Using binary contact information (“touch” or “no touch”) from each sensor, the team built a computer model that determines an object’s position at every step of the handling process and moves the fingers to rotate it smoothly and stably.Next they transferred this capability to operate a real robot hand, which successfully manipulated (操纵) previously unencountered objects such as apples, tomatoes, soup cans and rubber ducks. Transferring the computer model to the real world was relatively easy because the binary sensor data were so simple; the model didn’t rely on accurate measurements.Digging into what the robot hand perceives, Wang and his colleagues found that it can re-create the entire object’s form from touch data, informing its actions. He and his team are set to present thier handiwork at an international conference called Robotics: Science and Systems.New York University’s Lerrel Pinto, who studies robots’ interactions with the real world, wonders whether the system would become less effective at more complicated tasks including opening a bottle cap. Wang’s group aims to tackle more complex movements in future work as well as to add sensors in places such as the sides of the fingers. The researchers will also try adding vision to improve touch data for handling complicated shapes.12．What may contribute to the ineffectiveness of the optical sensors?A．Poor visibility.B．Blocked roads.C．Complicated tasks.D．Inaccurate calculation.13．What do paragraphs 3-4 focus on?A．Stimulating the robot fingers to move the items steadily.B．Increasing the precision of touch of the robot hand.C．Comparing the computer world with the real circumstances.D．Testing if touch information can facilitate the formation of the object shape. 14．What is the attitude of Lerrel Pinto towards the system?A．Neutral.B．Suspicious.C．Favorable.D．Pessimistic.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Robotics: Science and SystemB．New Robot Rotates Items SkillfullyC．New Robot Hand Works by Feel, Not SightD．From the Computer Model to the Real Robot Hand二、七选五Which is more important for people, book learning or experience? Some have spent their lives studying and gradually acquiring valuable deep knowledge. They are afraid to start andthe book, make mistakes, and learn from this experience.The debate between book learning and experience has been going on for a long time. There is no clear “right answer” yet, but there is strong evidence that experience gives us important skills that can’t be learned in books.17 Of course, reading the best books on learning gives someone knowledge, but experience gives know-how. It comes from practicing again and again. Professionals can make themselves because they devote their work, practice, and time to obtaining this position instead of managing to read books only. This distinguishes them from all the others.Reading more books about something doesn’t lead to success. You can acquire a lot of knowledge by reading, but there are also ways to accumulate knowledge through experience. Knowledge is theoretical, but experience is distinguished by the fact that you can put into practice what you have learned in a book. 18Book learning to understand a concept is important. But if you can’t understand the application of the concept in real time, the concept is useless. Experience allows you to put the learned concepts into practice. 19 You can’t effectively learn important skills without applying these concepts to real life.Certainly, the experience can lead to failure. But you can also learn from that failure and lead to success. 20 Therefore, experience is your greatest ally(盟友) in professional development if you want to understand the theory behind the concept, become an expert inthis field, keep the technique in mind, and gain valuable insights through failure.A．In contrast, others don’t worry about anything.B．You can learn a lot from books on self-learning.C．Of course, with these concepts, experience is acquired.D．This is valuable knowledge that is not found in any book.E．It is also an opportunity to test and challenge your knowledge.F．Through experience, you can also learn how to interact with people.G．Neither scientists nor doctors have read books only and become experts.三、完形填空Growing up in New Delhi, I saw Barbie as more than just a doll. She was the centralbedroom floor.As much as I loved Barbie, our time together could only last so long. Eventually, I grew 23 that I still played with my Barbie dolls while my middle-school friends had all moved onto more “mature” 24 . Barbie became similar with being a fake, “plastic” girl, whose bright pink clothing 25 my friends and me.By the tender age of 12, my friends and I had become 26 all girlish things, and Barbie topped our list of items to grow out of. Every 27 we took up instead seemed either gender-neutral or traditionally masculine (男子气概). For a 28 period I took up watching football to look cool (say exactly a month).Looking back, I feel like we were missing the point: Barbie was simply a blank canvas upon which to draw our ideas. It was our own 29 that we had come to abuse her for wearing pink clothes and having blond hair. That is why I appreciate the way the Barbie movie is being 30 . The movie 31 and Barbie’s bright pink colors are everywhere — there are 100 or more co-brand products, and you can get everything Barbie-pink from sports facilities to make-up and shoes. In Malibu, there is a pink hotel 32 after Barbie’s pink Dream House.In an interview, the director Gerwig said the team had many meetings just to settle on the correct 33 of pink for the movie — one that was beautiful but “not too fashionable”, she said, “because when I was a little girl, I loved the pinkest, brightest things”,without a hint of the 34 that I and my peers had of Barbie all those years ago, which would have been really important to me as an adolescent girl who often felt 35 in her femininity (女子气质).21．A．theme B．character C．argument D．conflict 22．A．assigned B．gathered C．created D．staged 23．A．embarrassed B．satisfied C．curious D．aware 24．A．peers B．hobbies C．ladies D．companies 25．A．involved B．caught C．offended D．connected 26．A．worried about B．passionate for C．content with D．dismissive of 27．A．appointment B．journey C．recreation D．challenge 28．A．difficult B．contemporary C．brief D．spare 29．A．fault B．memory C．experience D．selection 30．A．marketed B．captured C．illustrated D．filmed 31．A．settings B．promotions C．results D．witnesses 32．A．operated B．managed C．organized D．modeled 33．A．symbol B．design C．image D．shade 34．A．imagination B．judgment C．ignorance D．appreciation 35．A．interrupted B．sympathetic C．unsettled D．familiar四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

湖南省长沙市第一中学2023-2024学年高三上学期月考试卷（一）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Dramatic progress has been witnessed in the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which benefits from those great contributions some ancient famous doctors made ant some experience they accumulated. The following three stand out among the ancient famous doctors.Hua TuoHua Tuo (145—208), famous physician of the late Eastern Han dynasty, also named Fu, was born at Qiao County in Peiguo (now Bozhou, Anhui Province). He led a simple life, away from fame and fortune. He would rather become a traveling physician for ordinary people.Hua Tuo was an expert in several medical fields, such as internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics and acupuncture. He was the first person to perform surgery with the aid of anesthesia (by applying Ma Fei San, a herbal anesthetic he invented) some 1,600 years before Europeans did.Zhang ZhongjingZhang Zhongjing (150—219), also known as Zhang Ji, was one of the most distinguished Chinese physicians during the later years of the Eastern Han dynasty. He lived in today’s Nanyang in Henan Province. He was known as the “medical sage” by later generations due to his outstanding contributions to TCM.During his time, with warlords (军阀) fighting for their own territories, many people were infected with fertility, an illness caused by fever. Zhang’s family was no exception. The experience stimulated his motivation in medicine. He learned medicine by studying from his town’s fellow Zhan Bozu, absorbing previous medicinal literature, collecting many prescriptions; and finally writing the medical masterpiece Shanghan Zabing Lun. Unfortunately shortly after its publication the book was lost during wartime.Li ShizhenLi Shizhen (1518—1593) was a famous medical scientist the Ming dynasty. He loved medicine from an early age and succeeded his ancestors as a doctor. He not only paidattention to accumulating experience in curing diseases, but also visited the famous mountains where medicinal materials were produced.On this basis, it took 27 years to compile (编著) the pharmaceutical masterpiece, Compendium of Materia Medica, which is known as the “Encyclopedia of Ancient China” and has made an important contribution to the development of classical medicine China. 1．What do the three famous doctors mentioned in the passage have in common?A．Their books never come out.B．They travelled extensively across China.C．They led the way worldwide in their own expertsD．They contributed themselves to the development of TCM.2．What can we learn from the passage?A．Hua Tuo was desperate for reputation and fortune.B．Li Shizhen came from a family of doctors.C．Li Shizhen survived Zhang Zhongjing by 9 years.D．Zhang Zhongjing’s medical masterpiece vanished before published.3．In which section of a magazine may this passage appear?A．Healthy lifestyles.B．Daily entertainment.C．Historical figures.D．Fitness management.On March 25, 2010, Kate and David Ogg heard the words every parent fears: Their newborn wasn’t going to make it. Their twins -- a girl and a boy -- were born two minutes apart and exactly 14 weeks premature, weighing just over two pounds respectively. Doctors had tried to save the boy for 20 minute but saw no improvement. His heartbeat was nearly gone, and he’d stopped breathing. The baby had just moments to live.“I saw him gasp (大口嘴气), but the doctor said it was no use,” Kate told the Daily Mail five years later. “I know it sounds stupid, but if he was still gasping, that was a sign of life. I wasn’t going to give up easily.”Still, the Sydney couple knew this was likely goodbye. In an effort to cherish her last minutes with the tiny boy, Kate asked to hold him.“I wanted to meet him, and for him to know us, ” Kate told Today. “We’d resigned ourselves the fact that we were going to lose him, and we were just trying to make the most of those last, precious moments.”Kate unwrapped the boy, whom the couple had already named Jamie, from his hospital blanket and ordered David to take his Shirt off and join them in bed. The first-time parents wanted their son to be as warm as possible and hoped the skin-to-skin contact would improve his condition they then talked to him.“We were trying to let him stay, ” Kate told the Daily Mail. “We explained his name and that he had a twin that he had to look out for and that how hard we had tried to have him.”Then something unbelievable happened. Jamie gasped again and then he started breathing. Finally, he reached for his father’s finger.The couple’s lost boy had made it.“We’re the luckiest people in the world,” David told Today. Eight years later, Jamie and his sister, Emily, are happy and healthy. The Oggs only recently told the kids the story of their birth. “Emily hardy-held back her tears,” Kate said, “and she kept hugging Jamie with great affection. This whole experience makes you cherish them more.” “They widened their eyes as if there were an apple in their mouths bearing the miraculous experience,” David added. 4．What can we learn about the twins?A．They totally weighed less than 4 pounds.B．They have been in bad condition since birth.C．The couple attempted to save the boy but in vain.D．They came to the world nearly100 days earlier than expected.5．Which is the correct order of the following events?a. The dying boy went back to normal.b. The couple gave the boy a skin-to-skin contact.c. The couple made the case for his name to the boy.d. Doctors announced the approaching death of the boy.A．d-a-c-b B．d-b-c-a C．c-b-a-d D．d-c-a-b 6．How did Emily feel when told the story or their birth?A．Touched and challenged.B．Sad and confused.C．Astonished and bored.D．Surprised and moved.7．Which is a suitable title for the passage?A．A life-giving touch.B．A successful medical attention.C．A test from the God.D．First-time but devoted parents.We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are jammed with traffic, creating poisonous gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be?There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done?The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. Here are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into.Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC: “The big leap forward will come with solid-state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress cars. These will charge more quickly, and give cars a a bigger range.”Cost is another issue that may deter people switching to electric power. But some countries offer encouraging measures, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the Country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1,000 inhabitants.But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. 8．What makes global traffic difficult to be totally electric according to the second paragraph?A．A ban of the UK government.B．Lack of petrol.C．The small number of charging points.D．A low battery quality.9．According to Colin Herron, what can we learn?A．Solid-state batteries will allow electric cars to travel farther.B．Electric cars will indeed make for a zero-carbon future.C．Solid-state batteries will be initially employed in electric cars.D．Big progress has been made in laptops and mobile phones.10．What does the underlined word “deter” mean in the fourth paragraph?A．Block.B．Suggest.C．Leave.D．Catch.11．What will be most probably talked about next?A．The huge potential of electric cars.B．The unfavorable future of electric cars.C．The eagerness for a zero-carbon future.D．The reasons for not achieving a zero-carbon future.For most people, death is hard to think about. We tend to avoid the subject—involuntarily, even. The philosopher Stephen Cave offers one explanation for this avoidance in his 2012 book, Immorality. “Death,” he writes, “presents itself as both inevitable and impossible.” You can know rationally that you will die, yet struggle to understand your nonexistence. Put another way, you cannot be conscious of your own consciousnesses.So we dismiss death form our thoughts. But this leads us to make choice in life that actually reduce our happiness. People who express more regrets tend to be those who postpone profound activities that yield meaning, such as appreciating beauty or spending more time with loved ones. When we avoid thoughts of death, we unconsciously assume that tomorrow will look a lot like today, so we can do tomorrow what we could today. But when we focus on death, that increases the stakes at play in the present, and clarifies what we should do with our time.By forcing ourselves to think about death, our resources-use decisions change. I ask my 20-something graduate students to estimate how many Thanksgivings they realistically have left with their parents, and then to consider how they should spend those remaining occasions. This usually simulates a strong emotional reaction. But it can also alter such decisions as where they choose to live and work. This highlights that facing discomfort and thinking seriously about the impermanence of your mortal life are important for making decisions that enhance your happiness.There are other benefits. For example, paradoxical though it may seem, considering death can encourage positive thinking, as researchers found in 2007. People prepared to think about their death tended to focus on favorable emotional information around them, and to interpret random words in a pleasanter way. You begin to think extremely clearly, and realize that you have a choice about how to see present moment—and choose the positive.If you insist ignoring your own death, you are likely to make decisions that cause you to sleepwalk through life. You may not be dead yet, but you are not fully alive either. If you canlook across that border with resolve and confidence, you will experience every day fully and deeply.12．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A．People’s fear of death.B．People’s escape from death.C．People’s acceptance of death.D．People’s struggle against death. 13．What will happen to us if we don’t focus on death?A．Enjoying a lot more happiness.B．Taking better advantage of time.C．Postponing big things until tomorrow.D．Engaging in more meaningful activities.14．What’s the author’s purpose in mentioning his graduate students?A．To argue for the changes in making big decisions.B．To show doubts about facing discomfort of death.C．To compare students’ different attitudes to death.D．To argue against the necessity of considering death.15．What does the author suggest readers do in the passage?A．Avoid thinking about your death.B．Live a better life by ignoring death.C．Step away from death and live better.D．Think about your death and live better.二、七选五Report reveals CIA behind “Color Revolutions”Recently, the National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center released a report entitled Empire of Hacking: The US Central Intelligence Agency. 16 .According to statistics, the CIA has intervened (干预) in or attempted to overthrow at least 50 legitimate (合法的) governments and caused unrest in numerous other countries over the years, 17 . Examples of these interventions include the collapse of the socialist camp in the 1980s, the “Velvet Revolution”, “Rose Revolution”, “Orange Revolution”, “Tulip Revolution”, and “Snow Revolution” in various countries, and the “Green Revolution” and “Arab Spring”. Analyzing these events reveals that the successful organization of such “ColorRevolutions” depends on the use of communication and command technologies, in which the US is a leading power.18 . This facilitated the technological advances for US intelligence agencies to carry lout “Color Revolutions” abroad. The Internet also played a major role in the “Arab Spring”, with certain US-based multinational Internet companies actively intervening in the form of disinformation, support for anti-government actions, and other methods. 19 . Twitter and Google quickly created “Speak2Tweet” to help anti-government personnel in countries like Egypt and Tunisia maintain contact with the outside world. RAND developed “stampede”, a system that allowed proprietors to connect to the Internet, resulting in improved on-site command for demonstrations “RIOT”, a software that supports independent wireless broadband and anti-jamming Wi-Fi, was also developed to avoid censorship (审查) and surveillance (监视).The US Department of State also invested more than $ 30 million in the research and development of anti-censorship systems. 20 .A．though it has only admitted to sevenB．The Internet developed rapidly at that timeC．since these countries conducted “Color Revolutions”D．The US led the promotion of the Internet to the international market in the 1980sE．That the CIA has been secretly conducting “Color Revolutions” around the world for a long time is reportedF．Therefore, the CIA conducted several “Color Revolutions” worldwide with the help of these tools and technologiesG．These companies also provided encrypted (加密的) network communication services, such as TOR, to avoid censorship and surveillance三、完形填空faces.

英才大联考长沙市一中2024届高三月考试卷(一)语文得分: 本试卷共10页，时量150分钟，满分150分。

一、现代文阅读(35分)(一)现代文阅读Ⅰ(本题共5小题，19分)阅读下面的文字，完成1~5题。

材料一：人类创造的文化，包括科技文化和人文文化两大部类，它们分别发展看工具理性和价值理性。

科学技术作为最富革命性格的生产力，改造着世界，创造着巨大的物质财富，为人类提供日益增多的方便与享受，使人类自觉不自觉地产生了一种对科学技术的盲目崇拜。

19世纪以降，尤其是20世纪，相当多的人把科学技术视作全知、全能、全在的救世主，以为所有难题，包括精神、价值、自由都可以经由科学技术获得完满解决。

但由于科学技术是从研究自然界(尤其是物理世界)中抽象出来的一种“物质化”方法，或“非人格化”方法，其应用显然不足以解决人的精神领域的各种问题。

用池田大作的语言来说，“科学之眼”自有其限定性，因为“科学的思维法产生了轻视生命的领向，容易忽视活生生的人的真实风貌”，因而有赖人文的思想及方法的补充与矫正。

这首先表现在，对人类的生命意义而言，科学技术的健康走向，有赖人文精指引。

诚然，科技是“价值中立”的，但是作为社会人的科学家却不应是价值中立的，二战期间，爱因斯坦与“原子弹之父”奥本海默联袂反对使用原子弹，便是从人类良知和社会责任感出发的。

科技需要人文文化弥补的又一理由是：科学技术可以提供日益强大、有效的工具理性，却不能满足人类对于政治理念、伦理规范和终极关怀等层面的需求，总之，无法提供人类区别于禽兽的“价值理性”。

而现代人类所面临的诸多困扰，往往发生在值理性”管辖的领地，发生在“意义危机”频频袭来之际。

中国古代优秀的人文传统也其是在道德层面，有若干超越性的意义，可以成为文明人类公认的生活准则。

诸不忍之心、羞恶之心、恻隐之心、仁爱之心，都是贯通古今、中外认可的。

“人无信不少”，何尝不是成熟的现代市场交易所应遵循的经济伦理?“己所不欲，勿施于人”，也规代社会人际关系须臾不可脱离的黄金法则。

2. What might be taught in this masterclass?A. Finding ideas to compose a lecture.B. Obtaining inspiration to craft a bestseller.C. Learning to analyze the structure of a novel.D. Applying historical language to enhance writing.3. What should you do if you don’t receive the link as scheduled?A. Reach out to Natasha Pulley for help.B. Seek support from fellow participants.C. Contact the course provider via email.D. Check the course website for updates.BI’m running some 3,550 kilometers. To be more precise, this jog is mostly around my neighborhood in Ottawa. It is the distance by air to Vancouver that my friend Louise and I are doing. If we make it, Louise and I will get on a plane to Vancouver and compete in one of the BMO Vancouver Marathon weekend races. We may not win medals, but for sure we’ll have cake for my seventy-fifth birthday at the finish line.The workout for big birthdays represents a big change for me. I used to hate birthdays, especially those milestone ones. No longer feeling young is horrible. As I approached my sixtieth birthday, Louise suggested setting targets to mark milestone birthdays. “That way you are looking forward to something, not dreading (非常害怕) it,” she pointed out.By doing those expanding my world or demanding new skills, I feel myself growing, not shrinking. For my sixtieth birthday, I got it into my head that I should do an Olympic distance triathlon (铁人三项赛), which turned out to be a real milestone. After over four hours on the course, I was last among the 95 competitors. But I was the oldest woman competing, so that made me first in my age category. Since then, I’ve looked on the special days as a call for trying something different. For my sixty-fifth birthday, I went to run a half marathon. And I finished seven activities that took me out of my “comfort zone” at seventy.I’m fortunate to have celebrated so many birthdays in good health and spirits, so whether I succeed in running to Vancouver or not, I’m grateful for the opportunity. One thing I’ve learned from taking up these challenges is that there are many possibilities for new adventures and achievements, even as we grow older. So do spend every day of every year with a definite end in view, which will release your energy and make you happy.4. How does the author plan to observe her 75th birthday?A. Going jogging in Ottawa.B. Flying to Vancouver with a friend.C. Joining in a marathon race.D. Running 3,550 km around her neighborhood.5. What’s the author’s original attitude toward birthdays?A. Calm.B. Fearful.C. Positive.D. Casual.6. Why does the author think of the triathlon as a milestone?A. It made her feel much younger.B. It changed her attitude to birthdays.7. What does the author suggest at the end of the text?A. Living with a clear goal.B. Looking for new challenges.C. Keeping energetic by being close to nature.D. Celebrating birthdays by running marathons.10. What does Kelly Jakubowski imply?A. Music can strengthen people’s memories.B. Music is only linked to a certain occasion.C. Music functions better than anything else.D. Music can be used for medical treatment.11. What is the text?A. An online survey.B. A science report.C. A book review.D. A diary entry.DRivers are the veins (静脉) of the Earth, transporting the water and nutrients needed to support the planet’s ecosystems, including human life. While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life, there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet — carbon.Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is a complex science in itself. Carbon starts its journey downstream when natural acid rain, which contains carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,melts minerals in rocks. This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate (碳酸氢盐) in the water that then flows in our rivers. This is a very long process, which is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean, it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments (沉淀物) for millions of years.As carbon travels down a river, different processes may impact whether it continues to flow downstream or whether it is released into the atmosphere. For example, human engineering, like extensive dam construction, will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river. Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in some way, which causes more warming.Earth’s climate is closely related to the carbon cycle. We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide, but do we know enough about rivers? Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport carbon. Remember: wherever we live, we all live downstream.12. Where is the carbon in rivers originally from?A. The atmosphere.B. The rocks.C. The acid rain.D. The upstream areas.13. Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. To show how important carbon is to life.B. To explain how necessary it is to build dams.C. To show how a natural process is interrupted.D. To explain how humans fight global warming.14. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A. We’d better move upstream to live.B. We should protect plants along rivers.C. We’d better seek more help from plants.D. We should be cautious about river management.15. What is the best title for the text?A. What Humans Do with RiversB. How Rivers’ Transporting Carbon CountsC. What the Carbon Cycle Means to UsD. How Living Downstream Affects the Earth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。

none of the 138 men aboard 36 ．In her book Captain Sir John Franklin prepared as if they were 37 in a pleasure travel rather than a challenging journey through one of earth's 38 ．environments．He packed a 1,200 volume library, china place settings and glass wine cups．Years later, some of them were found near some 39 bodies．The voyage was hopeless when the ships sailed into 40 cold waters and became trapped in ice．First 41 coated the decks, the poles and the rope．Then water froze around the rudders （舵）, and the ships became 42 in the frozen sea desperately．Sailors set out to search for help, but soon 43 to severe Arctic weather and died of exposure to its harsh winds and low temperatures．For the next twenty years, 44 of the expedition were found all over the frozen landscape．Dillard reports that on a voyage that was to last 2-3 years the crew did not prepare for the chance of the ships being ice-locked and the captain 45 just a 12-day supply of coal for the spare steam engines．Historians may doubt the wisdom of such a journey．But I have a question: Are we, too, prepared for the important voyage we've started-the journey we- call " 46 ”? I want to be as ready as possible for what may lie ahead．As long as we are alive, our journey is not over．And in large part, the success of our journey will be 47 by our regular and systematic preparation．36．A．continued B．returned C．existed D．survived 37．A．resulting B．consisting C．engaging D．ending 38．A．toughest B．excellent C．commonest D．superb 39．A．burned B．rotten C．swelled D．frozen 40．A．slightly B．lightly C．ordinarily D．extremely 41．A．ice B．wave C．steam D．water 42．A．lost B．moved C．locked D．opened 43．A．put up B．gave in C．brought in D．broke up 44．A．library B．place settings C．wine cups D．remains45．A．donated B．carried C．expected D．answered 46．A．trouble B．happiness C．life D．death47.

（扁桃体切除术）seem a little less painful for him．He had marched into the hospital, holding the teddy bear tightly with great determination．And then there were loads of books, like the star wars series, which had fueled his young mind and actually helped motivate his ambitions．Now, he was off to serve his nation．I also remember him sticking his arms out like wings on my shoulders, making sounds like a pilot．He was five then．Who knew he would be a new soldier of the Air National Guard?For a while l wonder if this is a lifetime transition（转变）．when l was a girl baby, I needed my parents for everything．Then I turned into foolish independence and learned the meaning of “no " and“don't put that in your mouth”．Each year I grew a little more independent，finding myself on my own．But in my eyes

sure to allow time to hang around on your own．The trained tour guides will show you a school's selling points．But the o1dest and prettiest buildings don't give you the entire plcture of a college．Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus．2．Read the Bulletin BoardsWhen you visit the student center, academic buildings and residence halls．take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards．They provide an easy way to see what's happening on campus．The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what's going on outside theclassrooms．3．Eat in the Dining HallYou can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall．Try to sit with students if you can．Do the students seem happy or stressed?

The best way to know about a college in an official campus t伽r is____．A．to walk around the campus aloneB．to take pictures of the campusC．to Visit the oldest and prettiest buildingsD．to hire a tour guide62．Reading the bulletin boards can help youA．decide the major you want to studyB．find out the after-class activities on campusC．get free coupons from the admission officesD．find out the options of healthy food63．If you plan to attend a class on campus,A．drop in on a class in your majorB．have talks with the students in the classC．make an appointment in advanceD．ask how the students like their teachers and majors64．To get a real idea of the college during a visit, it's best to talk toA．famous professors B．campus tour guidesC．admission officers D．random students65．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A news report．B．A tourist poster．C．An educational journal．D．A geographical magazine．CWikipedia is an online encyclopedia（百科全书）．This name is a combination of“wiki" and“encyclopedia"．Wiki is the Hawaiian word for quick．Wiki websites are designed to enable users to make addition or edit any page Of the site．Wikipedia has been accused of exhibiting systemic prejudice and mistakes．Critics argue that Wikipedia's open nature and a lack of proper sources for much of the information makes it unreliable,Mention Wikipedia within the walls of academy and you'll find no shortage of opinions．That-s no surprise．Can an online encyclopedia that is edited by anyone be trusted as a credible information source? Should students be encouraged to use this tool? And is it even possible to discourage its users?To find out, we performed a simple experiment．We selected 100 terms from the U．S．history textbooks, We chose a mix of items that students might be asked to research for a test or paper and we entered each item into Google to find out which websites the search engine suggests as the most useful links．The results are shocking．Google listed Wikipedia as the number one: 87 times out of 100．Several conclusions can be drawn from this finding．First, people searching for information about these historical terms are finding the entries from Wikipedia helpful．Second, 6'banning" the use of Wikipedia appears hopelessly simple-minded．Jimmy Wales, one of Wikipedia's founders, told the New York Times, "They might as well suggest not listening to rock & roll either"．To our untrained eyes, the information from Wikipedia appeared just as reliable．The reason why the content is mostly reliable is probably that these terms are rather mainstream．The high-school level content is less likely to be wrong than the subjects studied in graduate schools．So when primary and secondary students are researching history, Wikipedia is still a proper place to start．66．Which of the following can best describe Wikipedia?A．Wikipedia is from the Hawaiian language with the meaning of prejudice and mistakes．B．Wikepedia is an online encyclopedia edited freely．C．Wikipedia is an encyclopedia under public attack．D．Wikipedia isa t60l for enjoying rock & roll．67．What does "it" in the second paragraph refer to?A．Wikipedia's open nature．B．Wikipedia's lack of proper sources．C．WikipediaD．Information on the Internet．68．From the underlined sentence we can conclude that ．A．Wikipedia serves only primary and secondary studentsB．people are always ready to find faults with othersC．Wikipedia has a range of topics and is rich in knowledgeD．people hold different opinions about Wikipedia69．What does the writer imply in the last paragraph?` A．Wikipedia can be useful in certain aspects．B．Students should be discouraged from using Wikipedia．C．The information from Wikipedia is totally reliable．D．Wikipedia cannot be trusted at all．70．What could be the best title for the passage?A．Wikipedia-a perfect encyclopediaB．Wikipedia-a misleading encyclopediaC．Wikipedia-a paper encyclopediaD．Wikipedia-a helpful online encyclopediaPartⅣWriting （45 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．In recent years, Smart Grid Technology is being promoted by many countries．It means the application of a digital system to the electricity network．Smart Grid Technology aims to provide the electricity industry with a better understanding of power generation and demand, and use the information to create a more efficient power network．The digital system can be used for companies to collect information about 'supply arid demand and improve engineers' ability to manage the system．With better information about the electricity demand, the network will be able to increase the amount of electricity delivered per unit generated, leading to potential decreases in fuel needs and carbon emission （排放）．Moreover, the digital system will assist in reducing maintenance costs．Smart Grid Technology offers benefits to consumers too．Through Smart meter, the equipment used by consumers to record power use in real time, the technology makes it possible to charge differently the appliances（电器）used at different times．Therefore, consumers may use their appliances, for example, washing machines at night．Smart meters can also be connected to the Internet or the telephone system, making it more convenient for consumers to switch appliances on or off when they are out．With these changes comes a range of challenges．The first involves managing the supply and demand．Sources of renewable energy, such as wind, wave and solar, are unpredictable．With alternative sources, this is far more difficult, and may lead to the failure of the system．A second problem is the fact that many renewable power generation sources are located in remote areas, such as windy uplands and coastal regions, which lack electrical infrastructure．Therefore, it is necessary to build new infrastructure there．Although Smart Grid Technology is still in its early years, people believe that by the year 2050, changes in the energy supply will have transformed our homes, our roads and our behavior．Isn’t it a bright future?Section B（10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage．Aaswer the questions according to the information given in the passage．Several years ago, I had to replace a receptionist for my unit．Before I advertised for the position,1 was approached by another manager, my wife's friend, and asked if l would consider a transfer from his staff．It appeared from his description of this employee, Maria, that she was having a lot of problems performing her duties, had difficulties with her boss, and did not appear to respond to any attempts her boss had made to settle the issues．Now, after listening to his explanation, I really had severe doubts．What crossed my mind, after this discussion, was that he wanted me to take a problem off his hands．I told him l would think about it and would let him know the next day．After thinking more about this potential performance issue, I decided that l would agree to speak with Maria privately before I made any decision．And, what I found out during this interview left me deep in thought．As it turned out, the performance issue appeared to result from working for a boss who never encouraged his employees, and was constantly changing the workload and routines．The end result was a totally ruined employee who was unconfident and hated to see a new workday start．I decided to accept her transfer to my unit．What started out as a shy, withdrawn and frightened employee turned out to be one of the most productive and loyal employees that I had ever worked with．Maria couldn't do enough and was constantly asking for more responsibility．I was more than happy to give her what she needed-praise for work well done, respect as a person, and encouragement for doing well in anything she dealt with．Sometimes, we are guilty of holding others back from accomplishing or doing or developing as they should or could．It may be a wise idea that we all look in the mirror, from time to time, to see what we are really like．81．According to the first paragraph, why did the author plan to advertise?（No more than 8 words）（2 marks）To replace a receptionist for his unit．/He wanted a new receptionist．82．How did the author get to know about Maria after hearing her boss's description of her? （No more than 11 words）（2 marks）By speaking with her privately before he made any decision．／He spoke with her privately before he made any decision．83．In Maria's eyes, how did her former boss treat his employees? （No more than 14 words）（3 marks）He never encouraged his employees and was constantly changing the workload and routines．84．What reaction did the
