JW Marriott The Rosseau Muskoka.BIn the August sun,it's unbearably hot in my car.I'm in Vancouver,approaching the Knight Street Bridge as I try to get home after work.It's 5:15 pm. Traffic is already slowing down and then it comes to a full stop. I'm stuck even before getting on the bridge.This has become my normal work commute（上下班往返）routine.Ahead of me is a heavily jammed on-ramp（匝道）.I stare at the endless rows of vehicles，depressed.At first I think this is not how it looks. The traffic will soon start moving. Seconds pass. Minutes pass. Looking at the rows of cars and trucks glittering in the sun,I start counting—299, 300,301—and I give up.Suddenly I remember I'm one of the 300 helpless drivers.But I stayfocused. When the cars do move,I move carefully,making sure not to bump into other vehicles. Finally, I make it onto the bridge. The traffic is still crawling at a snail's pace.Tired and hungry,I become very anxious.Just then, I hear a weak sound in the distance.The sound gradually becomes louder, until I can identify it as an emergency vehicle approaching from behind. What do we do The bridge is packed.There's no room for us to move.But I'm wrong.Every single car quickly.yet carefully,moves to the side. Without thinking,f follow suit. The lane remains open for a few seconds during which the ambulance flashes through. Afterward,every car moves back.We closeup the emergency lane,ready to continue our patient wait.Back in my spot,I forget my tiredness and hunger.My anxiety is gone.I start reflecting upon what 300 fellow drivers and I just did.How did we do that？Despite our exhaustion，we collectively decided to help the stranger who needed the time more desperately than we did. We drew on our sympathy (同情心)and intelligence,requiring no directives.Although I may seem alone stuck on the bridge,I'm connected to all the other drivers. Together we could make the impossible possible.24. What did the author think of his commute routineA. It was surprising.C. It was amusing.B. It was upsetting.D. It was interesting.25. When was the author's anxiety goneA. When he was stuck in the traffic.B. After the ambulance flashed through.C. After they decided to help the stranger.D. When he heard the sound of the ambulance.26. What can we learn from the passageA. The author got on the bridge at 5:15 pm.B. Moving carefully, the author still bumped into other cars.C. Every driver made room for the ambulance automatically.D. The author followed the ambulance through the bridge.27. What can we infer from the last paragraphA. The drivers didn't make a difference.B. The author was stuck alone on the bridge.C. The author talked with the other drivers.D. People's kindness made the miracle happen.cA 2020 study in the journal Science concluded that marine heatwaves have increased more than 20-fold as a result of climate warming.The authors found that in the first decade after satellites began recording ocean temperatures(i.e.after 1981),there were 27 large marine heat waves,with an average duration of 32 days and an average peak temperature almost 8.5°F above normal;in the 2010s,there were 172,which lasted 48 days on average with an average peak temperature almost 10°F above normal.Much remains unclear about marine heat waves.Forexample,explains Nicholas Bond, research scientist at the University of Washington and Washington's state climatologist,there is the question of why so many persist for weeks or months. “There must be something else going that he lps maintain them,”he says. He notes that one explanation is that as the ocean surface warms，it gives off heat into the atmosphere that prevents cloud cover（云层）from forming，exposing the seawater to increased sunlight and further warming.However,enough is known about marine heat waves for scientists to be gravely concerned about their potential impacts. Of special note is the fact that those impacts can last long after the heat waves have disappeared.After three years of the Blob, the waters of the northeastern Pacific began to cool in 2016;but yearslater,scientists are still determining the extent to which the region'secosystem is likely to return fully to its pre-Blob status. Similarly, notes Scannell, who is a data scientist with Jupiter Intelligence,Inc.,following the 2010-11 Western Australia event,“lots of kelp（巨藻）forests died，and it takes literally decades for those ecosystems to bounce back”.Eric Oliver,a scientist from Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada, expressed his own opinion about the potential impact of the heat waves in tropical waters.“I think that’s really a tough issue,”he says.Life in the tropics,he notes,is adapted to“quite a narrow range of temperatures. So that's where things can get really messy. We can have complete shifts in tropical systems.”28. What can we infer from the figures listed in para.1A. The problem of marine heat waves is becoming worse.B. The satellites enable scientists to record ocean temperature precisely.C. Climate change is the main result of the marine heat waves.D. Marine heat waves have been found by scientists for about 30 years.29. What does the 2nd paragraph mainly talk aboutA. Various factors that lead to marine heat waves.B. The possible impacts of a warm ocean surface.C. The possible reason why marine heat waves last long.D. Scientists' efforts in exploring the causes of heat waves.30. What do we know about the impact of the marine heat wavesA. The impact will disappear shortly after the sea water cools.B. It may take long before the ecosystem makes a complete recovery.C. Scientists have known enough to restore the impact.D. The northeastern Pacific and Western Australia are the worst cases.31. What is Eric Oliver's attitude towards the heat waves in tropic watersA. Concerned.B. Indifferent.C. Doubtful.D. Optimistic.DPeople's ability to remember fades with age-but oneday,researchers might be able to use a simple,drug-free method to buck this trend.In a study published on 22 August in Nature Neuroscience,Robert Reinhart,a cognitive neuroscientist at Boston University in Massachusetts, and his colleagues demonstrate that zapping(刺激)the brains of adults aged over65 with weak electrical currentsrepeatedly over several days led to memory improvements that persisted for up to a month.Using a non-invasive(非侵入的，无创伤的)method of stimulating the brain known as transcranial alternating currentstimulation(TACS),which delivers electrical currents through electrodes(电极)on the surface of the scalp(头皮)，Reinhart's team conducted a series of experiments on 150 people aged between 65and 88. Participants carried out a memory task in which they were asked to recall lists of 20 words that were read aloud by an experimenter. The participants underwent TACS for the entire duration of the task,which took 20 minutes.After four continuous days of this protocol,participants who received high-frequency stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex（背外侧前额叶皮质）had an improved ability to remember words from the beginning of the lists,a task that depends onlong-term memory. Low-frequency zaps to the inferior parietal lobe（顶下小叶）enhanced participants' recall of items later in the lists,which involves 'working' memory—the memory that allows the brain to store information temporarily.Participants' memory performance improved over the four days—and the gains persisted even a month later. Those who had the lowest levels of general cognitive function before the study experienced the largestmemory improvements.“I was both impressed and surprised by this,by this paper,”says Simon Hanslmayr,a cognitive neuroscientist at the University of Glasgow,UK. He notes that along with other scientists, he has been sceptical about whether TACS can lead to meaningful changes in cognition. One issue has been that TACS devices generate electrical currents much weaker than those created by other methods of stimulating the brain,so it hasn't always been clear whether they can transmit enough electricity to the brain to modify its function. However, the authors of this study convincingly showed that their protocol was linked to “consistent and quite strong improvements in memory”,Hanslmayr says.32. What does the underlined word “buck”mean in paragraph 1A. Start.B. Set.C. Follow.D. Resist.33. What can we learn about the experimentsA. The experiments involved people aged over 65 and young students with good memory.B. Participants were required to recall lists of 20 words when they read the words aloud.C. Stimulating the inferior parietal lobe with-low-frequency boosted the short-term memory.D. High frequency stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex improved 'working' memory.34. Why has Simon Hanslmayr been sceptical about TACSA. The electricity sent by TACS is not sufficient to guarantee meaningful changes in cognition.B. The people who have poor cognitive function experienced the least memory improvements.C. TACS devices generate electrical currents as weak as those created by other methods.D. TACS devices cannot ensure consistent and quite strong improvements in memory. 35. What is the text mainly aboutA. TACS can lead to insignificant changes in cognition.B. TACS can help people with conditions such as Alzheimer's disease.C. Brain stimulation leads to improvements in memory.D. Brain stimulation benefits those with poor cognitive function most.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分10 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

To her disappointment, however, it did not turn out that later.

Do smart phones ruin partnership?D. Couples and smart phonesDOne study involved sixty-eight healthy young women and men who ran at least twenty-four kilometers a week. The runners were observed on a treadmill machine (跑步机). Sometimes they wore running shoes. Other times they ran barefoot.Researchers from the JKM Technologies Company in Virginia, the University of Virginia and the University of Colorado did the study.They found that running shoes create more stress that could damage knees, hips and ankle joints than running barefoot. They observed that the effect was even greater than the effect reported earlier for walking in high heels.The study appeared in the official scientific journal of the American Academy of Physical Medicine.The other study appeared in the journal Nature . It compared runners in the United States and Kenya. The researchers were from Harvard University in Massachusetts, Moi University in Kenya and the University of Glasgow in Scotland.They divided the runners into three groups. One group had always run shoeless. Another group had always run with shoes. And the third group had changed to shoeless running.Runners who wear shoes usually come down heel first. That puts great force on the back of the foot. But the study found that barefoot runners generally land on the front or middle of their foot. That way they ease into their landing and avoid striking their heel.Harvard ’Daniels Lieberman led the study. He says the way most running shoes are designed may explain why those who wear them land on their heels. The heel of the shoe is bigger and heavier than other parts of the shoe, so it would seem more likely to come down first. Also, the heel generally has thick material under it to soften landings.But the researchers do not suggest that runners immediately start running barefoot. They say it takes some training. And there can be risks, like running when your feet are too cold to feel if you get injured.The study was partly supported by Vibram, which makes a kind of footwear that it says is like running barefoot. The findings have gotten a lot of attention. But the researchers say there are many problems in the way the press has reported in their paper. So they have tried to explain their findings on a Harvard Website.12． What can we learn from the passage?A. The way that we run by landing on the front or middle of our foot could avoid damaging our heel.B. We should start running barefoot in no time.C. Running in modem running shoes could have more serious effects than running in high heels.D. We won’ t be injured if we run barefoot.13． How many organizations are involved in the two studies?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.14． How did the researchers do the two studies?A. By practising.B. By comparing.C. By questioning.D. By reasoning.15． What is the main idea of the passage?A. Walking in high heels could have fewer serious effects than running baB. Two new discoveries encourage people to run in high heels.C. Running in shoes is partly good to runners.D. Two new studies prove running without shoes is beneficial to runners二、七选五We all have to make decisions all the time, and we have an abundance o issues to vital ones.

纵观历史，在世界四大古文明中，只有中华文明不仅______地延续下来，而且不断创造辉煌。

这并不是因为中华大地____，事实上，中华民族在历史上所遭受的灾难尤深尤重。

中国地域辽阔，环境复杂，加之人口众多，导致资源____、生态脆弱，(A )。

但是，让灾难史研究者很感兴趣的一个问题是：何以同样遭受周期性、大规模自然灾害的中华民族，却每每能够在灾难中迅速恢复，并持续发展？(B )。

其中不容忽视的是，自古以来资源的短缺、灾难的频仍，让中国人产生了一种独特的民族心理，并积淀为一种深层的社会意识，(C )。

在中国文化中，这种“韧”的精神，蕴有强大的自我恢复和更新能力，呈现出变通的智慧和顽强的活力，从而安然渡过历史长河中各种各样的困难，生生不息，绵延不绝，战胜一次又一次的灾难和变革而延续至今。

“韧”的精神在中国传统文化中的一个重要表现是两个____的代表思想的配合，这就是儒家和道家。

如果说儒家思想代表了中华文明积极进取、勇于担当的阳刚一面，那么道家思想则反映出谨慎内敛、谦虚忍让的阴柔一面。

(D )，共同铸就了中华民族的“韧”性特质。

Lovealso involves a physical element．（4）______ This is a vital difference．Nature gives us love so that the specie can go forward．Nature does not give us friendship．Your heart beats will never increase in anticipation of（期待，预期）meeting your friend．（5）______ You will not feel totally lost，if you don't meet your friend for a few days．You will not have dreams in your eyes thinking about your friend．But in love，you will do all this and much more．Indeed，there is no comparison between love and friendshipA．what about love？B．Fridship does not have thatC．My answer is "yes"D．Let us try and understandE．The physical element may include hand in hand while walkingF．We need not explain anything to our very good friendsG．You will not lie awake at night thinking about your friends16.

That early longing to explore space charted her degree choice.“I actually went after it. I chose to study a degree in mechanical engineering because of a documentary I watched when I was in high school. It was about a group of astronauts going to the International Space Station and the role of the mechanical engineerwas highlighted,” she sa y.Leading big construction projects in the desert has helped equip the daughter of two academics—a PhD father and English teacher mother—for Lunar construction.AlMatrooshi’s fellow trainee astronaut, UAE police helicopter pilot AlMulla, meanwhile says as tronaut training has been “a big career change”.“I spent 15 years qualifying to be a pilot, including training in Australia for my commercial pilot’s licence,” says the father of two. “As a pilot you get used to mastering everything—suddenly I’m changing my path.”“I’m a big fan of SpaceX. The rockets and even the fancy space suits. And hopefully all four of us—and all the astronauts who come after us will get to be a part of future missions—perhaps even to the moon eventually.”4.What preparation have they made before the training programA.They have grasped their native language.B.They have had cruel survival training.C.They have learned to deal with the press.D.They have done some weightlessness training.5.Which is the major factor for AlMatrooshi to be a member of the training programA.She got help from her academic parents.B.She has had a big dream since her childhood.C.She has experience in big construction projects.D.She was the winner of the Mathematics Olympics.6.What does the underlined pa rt “I'm changing my path” refer toA.I’ll be a master of life.B.I’m an enthusiast for SpaceX.C.I’m settling my new problem.D.I’m starting a new life from scratch.7.Which of the following is a suitable title for the textA.The fans of Space XB.Dream and achievementsC.Passion and preparationsD.Future astronaut training programCWe breathe, eat and drink tiny particles of plastic. But are these in the body harmless. dangerous or somewhere in between A small study published on Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine raises more questions than it answers about how these hits might affect the heart.The study involved 257 people who had surgery to clear blocked blood vessels in their necks. Using two methods, researchers found evidence of plastics-mostly invisible nanoplastics — in 150 patients and no evidence of plastics in 107 patients. They followed these people for three years. During that time, 30 or 20% of those withplastics had a heart attack, stroke or died from any cause, compared to 8 or about 8% of those with no evidence of plastics. The researchers also found more evidence of inflammation (炎症) in the people with the plastic bits in their blood vessels. Inflammation is the body’s response to injury and is thought to raise the risk of heart attacks and stroke.“I hope that the alarming message will raise the consciousness of citizens, especially governments, to finally become aware of the importance of the health of our planet.” said Dr. Raffaele Marfella of the University of Campania in Italy.Nevertheless, the study was very small and looked only at people with narrowed arteries (动脉), who were already at risk for heart attack and stroke. The patients with the plastics had more heart disease, diabetes and high cholesterol (胆固醇) than the patients without plastics. They were more likely to be men and more likely to be smokers. The researchers tried to adjust for these risk factors during their statistical analysis, but they may have missed important differences between the groups that could account for the results. This kind of study cannot prove that the plastics caused their problems.“More research is needed and it is the first report suggesting a connection between microplastics and nanoplastics with disease inhumans,” said Dr. Philip Lan drigan of Boston College. Other scientists have found plastic bits in the lungs, liver, blood, and breast milk, “It does not prove cause and effect, but it suggests cause and effect,” he said, “And it needs urgently to be either confirmed or disproven (反驳) by other studies done by other investigators in other populations.”8.What did the study find about the plastics in bloodA.They are visible and detectable.B.They may raise the risk of serious injuries.C.They need to be removed by surgery.D.They may account for a higher rate of heart attacks.9.What did Raffaele Marfella suggestA.Immediate action should be taken by government.B.Alarming message should be spread widely and quickly.C.The awareness of the harm of plastic bits should be enhanced.D.Joint efforts must be made to keep healthy physically and mentally.10.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about regarding the studyA.Limitations.B.Advantages.C.Causes.D.Effects.11.What did Dr. Philip Landrigan think of the studyA.Helpful but unrealistic.B.Pioneering but impractical.C.Distinctive but unnecessary.D.Suggestive but inconclusive.DHow often is your mind quiet If you’re a typical human being, the answer is probably very rarely. For most of our days, our attention is focused on external things—the tasks of our jobs, TV programs, or social media interactions. In the moments when our attention isn’t focused externally, it’s usually focused on what is called “thought-chatter”—a stream of mental associations consisting of expectations of the future, memories, daydreams, and so on.But from time to time, we all experience moments when our thought-chatter quiets down, or even disappears altogether. In these moments, we experience a sense of great well-being. We feel a sense of inner harmony. We feel a s if we’re free of problems, and feel satisfied with our lives as they are.There are many activities that have the effect of quieting our minds, and so produce a state of well-being.For example, think about what happens when you go walking in the countryside. You might feel stressed when you start out, but slowly, after-a couple of miles, your mind begins to settle down. The beauty and stillness of nature attracts your attention and you’re no longer in your thought-chatter. By the end of the walk you feel almost like a different person. You feel more alive, and much happier—largely because your mind is now quiet.This is why people love to look at beautiful works of art. When people see the paintings of Monet or van Gogh, they experience a mind-stopping mo ment, in which they’re taken out of their thinking minds and experience a sense of great well-being.The strange thing is, though, that most of the time this happens unconsciously (不知不觉地). We usually don’t associate this well-being with a quiet mind. And w e usually don’t think of a quiet mind as the aim or result of these activities.Our estimate of how enjoyable an activity is may depend on its mind-stopping capacity. In other words, the very best performances—and the most rewarding activities—are those which are so attractive and intense that they can completely stop our minds.I’m not saying that inner quietness is the only reason why we enjoy these activities. Nevertheless, we should certainly become more aware of the association of a quiet mind with well-being. And at the same time we should be aware that it’s possible for us to consciously and directly create a quiet mind; rather than as a byproduct of certain activities. And in the end we might develop a permanent quiet mind and attain a state of ongoing contentment and harmony.12.What can be inferred about thought-chatter试卷第1页，共3页A.It requires a lot of practice.C.It might be a talk with a friend.B.It might be unpleasant at times.D.It helps reach a state of silence.13.What are the examples of activities mentioned in the text mainly aboutA.What activities lead to well-being.B.What can be done to reduce stress.C.How we can make our minds quiet.D.How mental quietness leads to well-being.14.How can we determine how much pleasure an activity can give usA.By judging how much stress it can increase.B.By judging whether it takes place unconsciously.C.By judging to what extent it can quiet our minds.D.By judging whether it associates with well-being.15.What does the author intend to highlight in the last paragraphA.Creating a quiet mind for all time.B.Living a peaceful life permanently.C.Being in harmony with inner quietness.D.Participating in activities for inner quietness.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

河南省信阳高级中学北湖校区2024-2025学年高二上期开学测试语文试题一、现代文阅读（36分）（一）现代文阅读I（本题共5小题，18分）阅读下面的文字，完成1～5题。

《红楼梦》的文本在中国古代小说史上实在是一个独创，各种叙事要素运用自如、完英交融。

作为一部伟大的现实主义小说，《红楼梦》自始至终严格遵循现实主义创作原则，十分细致逼真地反映了一个封建家族（主要是荣宁二府）由盛而衰、由衰而亡的全部历史。

小说反映这个家族衰亡史的细致和逼真程度都达到了空前水平，整个《红楼梦》犹如一幅反映日常生活的巨幅画卷，正如曹雪芹所表白的，《红楼梦》故事的“悲欢离合，兴表际遇”，都是如实的“追踪蹑迹，不敢稍加穿凿”。

如婚丧嫁娶、生日饮宴、题赠送礼、穿衣吃饭、延医看病、种树养花、打看戏、斗嘴取笑等，小说对这些日常生活现象的描写到了抛尽一切夸饰的地步。

但我们又不得不佩服《红楼梦》在现实主义描写的基础上，将所谓人生悲剧、家庭悲剧以及爱情婚姻悲剧、女子的悲剧等这些现实层面的内容，设置在一个带有神话原型意味的下凡历劫母题的叙事框架中。

表面看这一叙事框架也许只使小说增添了些许神秘虚幻色彩，然而正是这些令人费解的神秘虚幻色彩，促使小说蕴含了更加深广的思想意蕴，使其在更高层面表现出对人类生命存在的“形而上”的哲学思考与终极关照。

其主题意蕴的深度与广度，就不仅仅是一般小说依靠现实主义描写手法所能企及的，从而使《红楼梦》的叙事策略与弗莱所谓“圣典或其他模式下类似启示录的作品”以及门德尔松等所谓百科全书式叙事的某些叙事元素若合符契。

《红楼梦》中的神话原型与现实人生主要是通过下凡历劫母题实现完美对接的，并且“顽石补天”“木石前盟”“太虚幻境”三大神话相互交织渗透，从而使《红楼梦》的神话原型蕴含了非常深刻的现实和人类生命主题。

其一，“顽石补天”神话追问人生本源。

“顽石补天”神话是《红楼梦》下凡历劫故事的基本框架。

顽石因无材补天通了灵性，遂“自怨自愧，日夜悲哀”，恳请茫茫大地，渺渺真人携入红尘，到“花柳繁华地，温柔富贵乡”的贾府来享受一番，在经历了一番世态炎凉，人生悲剧后又复归青埂峰下。
