A fashion magazine.BTraveling to a farm and spending several hours a day getting your hands dirty might sound like an unusual way to spend a vacation.WWOOF,or "Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms",is an organization that helps travelers go on "volunteering vacations" on organic farms.The idea is simple:travelers volunteer on farms for around four to six hours a day in exchange for free accommodation and meals.The duration(时长) of "vacation" could be a few days or a few weeks.Volunteers may be given different tasks,based on the type of farm they're on.These may include things like gardening,cutting wood,feeding animals,or even making cheese or wine.But "WWOOFing" is about more than that.The aim is for travelers and farmers to take part in a cultural and educational exchange,while helping people spend time in nature.At least,that's what Sue Coppard had in mind when she started the organization.In 1971,Coppard was working as a secretary in London,but she wanted to spend more time in the countryside.So,she thought it might be a good idea to stay and work on a farm.And since she worried that she would be lonely,she asked others to join her.After a successful trial weekend at a farm in Sussex,England,with 15 volunteers,more people started showing interest in working on farms,and more organic farmers said they were willing to host workers.Today,it's possible to go WWOOFing in more than 130 countries,according to the website.You don't need any farming experience—just a positive attitude and a willingness to learn!4.What can we know about WWOOF?______A. It offers flexible length of holiday.B. It was set up by an experienced farmer.C. It focuses on farming in different ways.D. It is an organization to help people in need.5.What could we do as a WWOOF volunteer?______A. Enjoy urban scenery.B. Do some farm-related work.C. Raise animals for money.D. Work on the farm remotely.6.Why did Sue Coppard set up WWOOF?______A. She was interested in organic farming.B. She felt lonely every now and then.C. She was tired of being a secretary.D. She loved to get close to nature.7.What is the main purpose of the text?______A. To promote organic farming.B. To share experiences about farming.C. To introduce a new way of spending vacation.D. To advertise cultural and educational exchange.CIn 1950,less than 1 percent of the UK population was too fat.Today,that figure stands at 28 percent.How did this happen?Did the British public suffer an extremely large breakdown of willpower?Of course not.Humans haven't changed.The food system has.Many people find it hard to imagine that a food "system" really exists,not to mention that it could be shaping their own eating habits.Let's start with one important element:the human appetite (食欲).Biologically,we are still hunter-gatherers.If you have to search for your food,it makes sense to prioritize things that will give you more calories (卡路里) than you use.When we eat sweet,fatty foods,our bodies respond with great pleasure to reward us for finding such a source of energy.It used to be hard work to find this kind of food.But in the second half of the 20th century,new methods of farming and producing greatly increased global food production.Since this "green revolution" in agriculture,food with high calories has become so cheap and it is hard to avoid eating panies put much money into developing and promoting food made from these ingredients (成分).They trap us in food like biscuits and cakes,knowing we find it attractive.This kind of food contains little water or fibre,so it takes longer for us to feel full.As a result,we eat more of it and,because each mouthful is full of calories,it makes us fat and ill. There are,however,two ways to escape this trap.The first is to rebalance the financial encouragement in the system.The second is to target human biology.A new kind of weight-loss drug is proving effective at controlling our increased appetite.Such drugs can be a godsend for the extremely fat.However,it is the food system that is making us ill,and it is the food system that needs curing.8.What can you learn from Paragraph 1?______A. The British are losing their willpower.B. Humans have never changed since 1950.C. Britain's population has been changing.D. A growing number of British are overweight.9.What does the underlined word "prioritize" probably mean in Paragraph 2?______A. PreferB. RememberC. PlantD. Avoid10.What has made food with high calories cheaply available?______A. The effort of food companies.B. The good taste of sweet and fatty foods.C. The application of new means of farming and producing.D. The drive to change the supply and demand of green agriculture.11.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?______A. Less fatty foods have been produced.B. The food system needs to be changed.C. People's increased appetite has been cured.D. The weight-loss drug has changed human biology.DLately,there has been a lot of discussion among parents,educators,and within the community that reading is a lost art.We hear people crying that books are dead or that technology is changing how we get ourinformation.Thankfully,however,book sales are rebounding(回升) and literature is far from dead.That's great news,because science has proven that there are many ways that reading is beneficial to our lives and brain development.The benefits of reading range anywhere from reducing stress,to developing our brains,to improving memory,and helping increase emotional intelligence.For parents,this is especially important to note,because empathy (共情) is among the five most important skills for success for people living in a digital and global economy.Our kids,who are digital natives,are going to be required to explore a world that requires them to have emotional intelligence to succeed.In addition to helping children develop critical thinking and writing skills,research has long been telling us that reading fiction can develop empathy and emotional intelligence.Surprisingly,the actual art of reading isn't capable of producing this surprising reaction.Children don't develop emotional understanding by focusing on mechanics.Instead,there is hard evidence that reading literary fiction improves emotional intelligence.Stories allow readers to bury themselves in the life of another person and see the world through their eyes.This has always been a good way to broaden a child's outlook,but now we actually have the research and science to say it makes us more empathetic.For example,studies published before uncovered that participants who read literature with strong characters showed higher levels of empathy and emotional intelligence by being able to "feel" the characters.The subjects of these studies were better able to understand others by empathizing with characters and viewing the world in their different ways.12.What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 1?______A. Reading is a lost art.B. Reading has a great influence on us.C. Book sales are going up again.D. Technology leads to the death of books.13.What benefit do children get from reading?______A. Succeeding in their career.B. Bringing back their memories.C. Gaining popularity in the digital world.D. Enabling them to be emotionally intelligent.14.What evidence shows reading literary fiction improves emotional intelligence?______A. The change of the readers' values.B. The readers' devotion to reading stories.C. The development of the readers' critical thinking skills.D. The readers' ability to understand the characters in stories.15.What is a suitable title for the text?______A. Why Reading Will Never DieB. How Children Develop Good Reading HabitsC. How Reading Improves Emotional IntelligenceD. What Parents Can Do to Improve Kids' Emotional Intelligence二、阅读七选五:本大题共5小题,共12.5分。

That’s true for Logan Earnest’s fifth grade classroom, and he felt it was affecting his students.“Most of the day, they’re inside,” Earnest told CBS News. “And they don’t really get to see any trees, grass, or the blue sky.” He said the gray walls could be depre ssing to the kids and may affect their attention and even their attendance.This was confirmed by former school psychologist Ernesto Rodriguez, who said the lack of windows does affect kids, because research shows being in and around nature eases anxiety and benefits students. Though no longer a practicing psychologist, perhaps he knows now more than ever the impact nature has on mental health. Rodriguez became a park ranger (公园管理员) on Southern California’s Catalina Island and began focusing on his passion—landscape photography.It was during his training to become a park ranger that he learned a fact that kids who have views out windows to trees do better academically, emotionally and creatively. So an idea to bring nature into rooms occurred to him: Why not bring landscapes in classrooms—via the ceiling (天花板), because teachers don’t typically use them.Rodriguez took 360 degree shots of tree canopies (树冠) using his photography skills, then he printed them and fit them onto the classroom ceiling of Earnest’s fifth grade. “Beautiful,”one student said as she entered the room. Another student said the trees brought him peace, “When you look up, it feels like you’re sitting under a tree.”Earnest said he thought there would be many positive effects on his students. “I think my attendance is going to go up. The kids are going to want to come here more frequently. Overall, I think the kids are going to be happier,” he said.4. What is the common challenge shared by some classrooms at Taft Elementary?A.Lack of fresh air. B.Absence of windows.C.Insufficient lighting. D.Limited access to technology.5. Why did Ernesto Rodriguez bring landscapes into classrooms?A.To connect the students with nature.B.To promote his photography skills.C.To improve the teac hers’ performance.D.To create an exciting environment for the students.6. How did the students react to Rodriguez’s pictures on the classroom ceiling?A.They did not notice the change.B.They failed to concentrate on lessons.C.They preferred the original gray ceiling.D.They were in favour of the new additions.7. What’s Logan Earnest’s attitude towards the change in the classroom?A.Cautious and objective. B.Appreciative and supportive.C.Concerned but doubtful. D.Curious but unsure.Elephan ts’ important role in maintaining biodiversity and healthy ecosystems has earned them various names including ecosystem engineers and forest gardeners. However, African forest elephants — a species living in the rainforests of central Africa — are increasingly recognized by another name: “climate heroes”.African forest elephants help lessen climate change by increasing carbon storage in their forest habitats, meaning they help remove heat-trapping CO2 from the atmosphere. They do this by influencing the forest structure, including by increasing the diversity and abundance of plant species. It’s estimated that one forest elephant can increase the net carbon capture (捕获) capacity of the forest by almost 250 acres. This is equal to removing from the atmosphere a year’s worth of emissions (排放量) from 2,047 cars.“As strange as it seems, all that eating and destruction help the forest pull more carbon out of the air,” says Alison Pearce Stevens in the book Animal Climate Heroes! . Elephants eat more than 400 pounds of food a day, so they spend a lot of time searching for food. As they walk through the forest, they do a lot of damage to the surrounding smaller trees, leading to the survival of trees that have the ability to absorb and store more CO2.In addition, their thirst for fruits also helps to promote forest growth. This is because elephants disperse fruit seeds. In other words, the seeds pass through the elephant bodies until they drop back to the forest floor.But African forest elephants are seriously endangered and continue to face threats. These mainly come from hunting for the illegal international trade in elephant ivory (象牙), but also from habitat loss and fewer food sources. The number of forest elephants fell by more than 86% over a period of 31 years, and their habitats are thought to have reduced by 75%. Protecting forest elephants and the forests they depend on means we are safeguarding their ecological contributions that we all rely on.8. How do African forest elephants help relieve climate change?A.They increase the diversity of wildlife species.B.They help to maintain the plants of the forest.C.They take in heat-trapping CO 2 from the atmosphere.D.They promote the net carbon capture ability of the forest.9. What does the underlined word “disperse” in paragraph 4 mean?A.Consume. B.Preserve. C.Spread. D.Gather.10. What are the threats facing African forest elephants?A.Illegal hunting and habitat loss.B.The disturbed balance of the forest ecosystem.C.Natural disasters resulting from climate change.D.Competition for water sources with other animals.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Preserving Forests: Elephants’ ContributionB.New Role of African Forest Elephants: Climate HeroesC.Ivory Trade Threatens African Forest ElephantsD.Forest Elephants Are Approaching the Edge of ExtinctionSpace engineers from the University of Glasgow have published new research showing how reflectors (反射器) placed in orbit around Earth could increase the output of future large-scale solar farms by reflecting additional sunlight toward them even after the sun has set.In their paper, the researchers described how they used advanced computer models to help determine the most effective method of using orbiting solar reflectors to produce additional power. Their models showed that putting 20 thin reflectors into orbit 1,000 kilometers from Earth could reflect sunlight to solar farms for an extra two hours each day on average. The additional sunlight could increase the output of the worl d’s future solar farms, particularly after sunset when electricity demand is high. The output could be scaled up further by adding more reflectors or increasing their size.The team developed an algorithm (算法) to determine how the reflectors could be arranged to catch the sun’s rays most effectively, maximizing the additional sunlight reflected to solar farms around Earth in the early morning and late evening. The researchers suggested that 20 reflectors could produce an extra 728 MWh of electricity per day — equal to adding an additional large solar power farm to Earth without the cost of construction.Dr. Onur Çelik, one author of the paper, said, “Solar power has the potential to speed our race to reach net-zero, helping us to relieve the global impacts of climate change by reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.”Moreover, the price of solar panels (太阳能电池板) has dropped quickly in recent years, increasing the pace of their adoption and paving the way for the creation of large solar farms around the world.One of the major limitations of solar power, of course, is that it can only be generated during daylight hours. Putting orbiting solar reflectors in space would help to maximize the effectiveness of solar farms in the years to come. Strategically placing new solar farms in locations which receive the most additional sunlight from the reflectors could make them even more effective.12. What is the purpose of placing reflectors in space?A.To improve communication between Earth and space.B.To bring the effects of climate change under control.C.To produce electricity for agricultural use.D.To increase the production of solar power.13. What may contribute to the application of large-scale solar farms?A.The increased demand for electricity. B.The decrease in the cost of solar panels.C.The development of space technology. D.The requirement to preserve theenvironment.14. What can be inferred about the future of solar farms?A.They’ll replace fossil fuels completely.B.They’ll become the main source of e nergy.C.They’ll be more cost-effective and efficient.D.They’ll rely mainly on orbiting reflectors for sunlight.15. Where is the text most probably taken from?A.A news report. B.A maths website.C.A marketing brochure. D.A policy brief.Adapting to different cultures is an enriching journey that broadens our opinions and improves global understanding. Here are some steps to help you embrace (拥抱) cultural diversity.Admitting cultural differencesAcknowledge and accept that each culture has its own way of life. Admit that no culture is superior or inferior; they are simply different. 16 .Seeking cultural understandingYou should understand the fundamental aspects of the culture you come across. 17 . Engage in conversations with locals to gain insights into their daily lives and values. This approach will not only enrich your knowledge but also deepen your appreciation for the culture.Exploring local food Food is a window into a culture’s soul. Try the local cuisine to experience the diversity of fla vors and cooking styles. 18 , each bite can offer a connection to the culture’s heritage (遗产).Sharing your own cultureRemember, cultural adaptation is reciprocal (相应的). While you’re learning about others, you also have the chance to share stories and aspects of your own culture. 19 .In a word, adapting to different cultures is about embracing the diversity with an open heart and mind. 20 . By doing so, you can enrich your life with new viewpoints and experiences.Ten-year-old Hallee McCoombes was born with spina bifida (脊柱裂), which didn’t stop her becoming a star athlete.As Hallee approached the finish line of the 800-metre run for kids with a _________, the crowd was cheering wildly and calling her _________.

Create.B. End.C. Help.D. Monitor.13.What can be known about microgravity?______A. It is a state of free fall.B. It widely exists on the earth.C. It can be changed by people.D. It brings harm to astronauts.14.Why does the author give the example of filtration system?______A. To encourage the exploration of space.B. To promote the use of filtration system.C. To show the transfer of space inventions.D. To inspire people to invent more tools.15.What is the best title of the text?______A. The Mystery of Outer Space Technologies.B. Space Technologies We Can Use to Improve Life.C. The Development of Advanced Space Technologies.D. Sustainable Development of Science and Technology.二、阅读七选五:本大题共5小题,共12.5分。

Meanwhile,many others he had thought of as good friends had done nothing but standing by and wanting to see Mario fall again and again,from which they got a lot of fun.They just enjoyed making fun of Mario.Para2:After the show,Mario told the three best friends about the bet and took them to see his grandfather.That evening,Mario’s grandpa treated the four children to a big bag of popcorn.They had a great time eating popcorn,talking,laughing and listening to stories until very late.From grandpa’s magic chair,Mario knew that true friends are those who care for us,not just any acquaintance who happens to be passing by.And someone who takes joy in our misfortunes is even less of a friend.A possible version2Paragraph1:Looking around,Mario saw three of his best friends holding him up,so he wouldn't fall.Tears welled up in his eyes as he realized the truth.These were the friends who truly cared,the ones who were there not just for fun or to be companions,but who would go the extra mile for him.He turned to them and said,"You are my real friends."They just smiled and nodded,and Mario knew what the bet of his grandpa meant.Meanwhile Mario had discovered the true meaning of friendship. Paragraph2:After the show,Mario told the three best friends about the bet and took them to see his grandfather.Mario thanked his grandfather,while his grandfather smiled and said,"You see,Mario, sometimes it takes a little test to find out who your true friends are.Remember this lesson and cherish those who are truly there for you."Mario nodded,vowing to always value his real friends and be a better friend himself.From that day on,Mario stopped showing off about the number of friends he had and focused on building deeper and more meaningful relationships with those who truly mattered.听力录音材料Text1M:Which team is your daughter in the one playing in white?W:No,she’s in the blue team.Look,she’s over there,next to the boy in the black hat.Text2M:I got a promotion today!I have become the manager of my department!W:That’s good news.Congratulations!I’m so proud of you.Text3W:Excuse me,what can I do for you?M:I’d like this shirt to be dry-cleaned.And I have to wear it this afternoon to attend a business meeting.Could you help me with it?W:Sure.It is12o’clock now.You can take it away in three hours.Text4M:Excuse me,could you give me a menu and tell me some specials?W:Sure.Today’s special has a choice of pizza or cold noodles and beef.M:Sounds good.I’m going to try some pizza.Text5M:Does anyone mind me turning on the air conditioning?It’s hot here.W:Actually,I would prefer it if you didn’t do that.Air conditioning makes me feel a little cold.

阅读理解It's a classroom; but instead of being told to sit quietly and listen, you are encouraged to stand up, jump around, imagine and act out it's a class full of laughter and applause(掌声), emotion and energy. Welcome to drama class, one of my favorite classes at high school.In drama class we used to play a lot of“ drama games. We would improvise(即兴表演), mime(模仿) and above all use our imaginations. My favorite game was called "Spotto". One person stood at the front of the class and performed a scene, completely out of their imagination. When one audience member yelled "Spotto!", the performer had to freeze. Then the person who had yelled Spotto had to get up and improvise a new scenario (剧情)based on the position the first performer froze in. This went on as more and more people were added to the scene.Eventually the entire class would have joined the scene. Then the performers would start to leave in reverse(颠倒的)order. The first performer had to have a good memory to remember all the other scenes. It was a lot of fun, and a good test of everyone's imagination to see whatthey would come up with.Drama class at my school often involved a big performance at the end of the semester as well. We would work on a production throughout the semester and put on a show for our parents and the school community.It was a great experience to perform on stage in front of a large audience. Drama class can help shy children to come out of their shells. It helped me become more confident and developed my public speaking skills. Drama class is also a great place to express yourself, and a way for children to use up some of their energy.【1】Which of the following statements is TRUE about the game "Spotto" as described in the article?A. "Spotto" is designed to help drama students lean from one another’s performance.B. A performer has to think of a story completely unrelated to that of the performer before him or her.C. Each performer in a "Spotto" game has to retell the story of the performer directly after him or her.D. Every student gets the chance to make a contribution to the "Spotto" game.【2】The underlined word "freeze" in Paragraph 3 probably means_______.A. stopB. quitC. changeD. wait【3】We can infer from the article that the author______.A. Doesn't like to sit quietly in classB. never performed well in the drama gamesC. used to be quite a shy studentD. used to shine in performances【4】What is the article mainly about?A. Unforgettable experiences on stage.B. One of the author's favorite high school courses.C. How to improve your drama skills.D. A few drama games for fun.【答案】【1】D【2】A【3】C【4】B【解析】如何把教育变成一件高效又有趣的事儿,从古至今都是一个难题。

I have forgotten the name of the old lady to whom I delivered newspapers but I can’t forget the lesson she taught me in forgiveness .On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the roof of the old lady’s house . I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window of the house.At the sound of broken glass, we knew we were in trouble. We turned and ran away fast.I was too scared about getting caught that first night by the old lady with the broken window. Howeve r, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn’t been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune.She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence. I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I thought would cover the cost of her window.I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it. I waited until dark, and put the letter I didn’t sign in her letter box.The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was receiving from her.She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself. I thanked her and ate the cookies happily.After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was stunned.

I was excited because my hands were finally good for something. I told my parents I wanted to play, and naturally, they agreed.Since I first touched the viola, I haven’t been able to put it down. Ignoring the difficulty, I am pulled closer to it each day.Classical music is truly my best friend. It is the trusted friend of every man, woman and child. Various feelings are expressed in classical music. I discovered that when I was eleven and played a cello concerto (大提琴协奏曲) of Bach in a competition, the first movement was joyful, but the second movement was mysterious and full of pain. From the piece, I learned that music expresses not only feelings, but also sudden mood changes. By listening toclassical music, I know that someone else shares these feelings. Since I am lucky enough to be able to play classical music, I am comforted by it when I am upset. It gives me a way to escape from my problems for a short period. Classical music can express my joy, sadness and anger.Now look back at that fall day in the third grade and think how gullible I was for believing that anyone, even music teachers, could tell whether hands were perfect for a certain instrument. I’m certain they told me I had “ viola hands” not because they were fortune-tellers (算命师), but because there was a lack of violists in our district. Classical music is one of the best things that ever happened to mankind. If you get introduced to it in the right way, it will become your friend for life.9.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the first and second paragraphs?A.To introduce an interesting musical class.B.To offer the evidence of her gift for music.C.To show the importance of proper guide.D.To tell the power of support from parents.10.According to the passage, in what way does classical music help the author?A.By developing social skills. B.By improving mental health.C.By broadening life experience. D.By building close relationship. 11.What does the underlined word “gullible” mean in the last paragraph?A.Easily tricked. B.Firmly loved.C.Greatly challenged. D.Secretly hidden.12.Which could be the best title for the passage?A.Special event, sweet memory. B.Classical music, endless friendship C.Lifetime dream, great effort. D.Happy childhood, unforgotten experience.Every year, thousands of people gather in Spain’s northeastern city of Pamplona for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are set free to charge through the town.But the event is of interest not just to adventurous tourists. Daniel Parisi and his team realized that the Pamplona bull runs offered a perfect natural experiment to study the activities of frightened crowds.That is a useful topic to explore. Architects, civil engineers and urban planners must tryto work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly crushes. Unfortunately, reliable information is hard to come by. Authorities, after all, are likely to frown on researchers putting volunteers into serious danger simply to study how they might behave.In July 2022, the researchers set up two cameras on the rooftops and recorded the runners’ behaviors as the animals were charging through the town. Then they brought their recordings back to the lab to calculate the speeds of the runners, the density of the crowd and the probability of a runner tripping and falling. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near. Less expected was the finding that the speed of indiv idual runners increased with the density of the crowd. At the crowd’s maximum speed of around four metres per second, density reached roughly one runner per square metre. This finding is contrary to a long-held assumption that people will slow their pace as group density goes up. Their data further suggests that, in the heat of the moment, people pay little attention to the danger of running into each other, and do not slow down.Their conclusion? The only option for the urban designers is to plan wider stairs, tunnels, bridges and other passages in the future.13.What attracted Daniel Parisi to Pamplona?A.The beauty of the small Spanish city. B.The behaviors of frightened crowds. C.The unique traditions of the festival. D.The adventurous spirit of the event. 14.What does the underlined phrase “frown on” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A.Disapprove. B.Encourage. C.Fund. D.Permit. 15.What surprised Daniel Parisi?A.The crowds moved faster as the bulls came near.B.The fastest runner’s speed reached 4m per second.C.The runners picked up speed as group density went up.D.Some people stopped to help others in the face of danger.16.What is the best title for the text?A.In Pamplona, Wild Tourists Behave BadlyB.In Pamplona, Bulls Run and Tourism GrowsC.Researchers Survived the Bull Run in PamplonaD.Pamplona Bull Run Shows How Crowds Behave二、七选五How to Train Y our Brain to Show KindnessIt is always good to learn new things, especially kindness. 17 , here are some ways for you.Show kindness to yourself firstYou might think that the first step should be helping others, but that won’t make a lasting change. If you keep being strict with yourself, that attitude will show how you treat others. If you are always in a bad mood, this feeling will also influence others in your actions.18 .19If you want to be kind, you need to listen to people. Most of the time, if a stranger on the street asks for some money, you may first think they are trying to cheat. But what if you’re wrong? You’ll never know unless you listen. Therefore, from now on, ma ke an effort to listen actively.Build positive thinking skillsA positive thought is one of the most important things you can do when learning to be kind. If your life is full of negativity, you will never be able to spread positive emotions into the world. How to build positive thinking skills? One of the best ways to do it is to practise gratitude. 20 , always try to see the good in things. Make an effort to take some time and enjoy the small things.Be activePractice makes perfect 21 . And kindness is a skill you need to learn, much like riding a bike. All it takes is just a little bit of practice. Once being kindness becomes part of your daily routine, you’ll internalize(内化)it.A.Make an effort to listenB.Offer to help strangersC.If you try your best to do itD.If you want to train your brain to show itE.No matter how dark the world might seemF.This saying is true when you want to gain any new skillG.So, to make a lasting change, you must learn to be kind to yourself first三、完形填空We all feel blessed by the great field of love that surrounds us all.

河北省高一下学期期末英语试卷(含答案)学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________一、阅读理解One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it. It could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off.The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Most of the statues of Buddha and the other artifacts are off-limits to photos.Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it is large. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage.I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want. But since it was just me, I went on one of the biggest boats with other people.I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 1.Before setting off to the Summer Palace, the author __________.A.asked others about it B.didn’t think it was largeC.didn’t think it was small D.learned something about it2.What does the underlined word “off-limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Forbidden. B.Allowed. C.Charged. D.Limited.3.What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text?A.It sits on the top of a hill. B.It is the largest stage all over China. C.Operas are performed there at times. D.It was for royalty to watch performances.4.Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour?A.She took a boat by herself.B.She spent four hours in the Summer Palace.C.She only toured parts of the Summer Palace.D.She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late.Foods high in sugar are unhealthy, but these additives are too delicious for many of us to give up or reduce in a way. What if we could somehow enjoy their taste without actually eating them? A student team has now designed a spoon with a structure that stimulates taste buds (味蕾) to produce a sense of sweetness without adding calories or chemicals. The project follows previous work involving flavor-enhancing cutlery (餐具) like chopsticks that increase sweetness with a mild electric current.The five undergraduate and graduate research students wanted to create a new spoon called Sugarware for people with such disorders as diabetes, with which sugar is largely off their menu.The-new spoon would have several bumps (凸起) on its underside to press against the tongue. The bumps can be covered with a permanent layer of molecules (分子) called ligands. These ligands bond with taste-cell receptor proteins that typically react to sugar molecules or artificial sweeteners. The bond can activate nerve signals, causing the brain to register a sense of sweetness. A diner could thus stimulate sweetness receptors without actual intake of sugar or artificial sweeteners.This idea is similar to the previous work in that they all use cutlery to enhance taste without a user having to actually consume any sugar. “But the mechanism for stimulating the taste buds is completely different,” Shiyu Xu, one of the student researchers, says, “It uses bumps and taste-bud-stimulating molecules rather than electricity.”The idea is “very creative”, says Paola Almeida, who is the global directorof corporate innovation at candy maker Mars. But the product’s commercial success would require a significant behavioral shift among consumers: instead of adding the usual sugar or artificial sweeteners, now we’re saying, “Use this cutlery,” Almeida says, “It remains to be seen whether flavor-enhancing cutlery will catch on”. 5.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.How the new invention works. B.How a diner feel sweetness.C.How ligands and proteins link. D.How sugar molecules function.6.In what way is the previous flavor-enhancing cutlery different from Sugarware? A.It makes food more delicious. B.It sends out signals to the brain. C.It uses electricity to enhance taste. D.It reduces users’ food consumption. 7.What is Paola Almeida’s attitude to the future of Sugarware?A.Positive. B.Uncertain. C.Critical. D.Concerned. 8.What’s the best title of the text?A.Struggling for Low Sugar? — Try This SpoonB.Looking for Delicious Food? — This is HowC.Working for Commercial Success? — Be CreativeD.Dieting for Better Health? — Mind SweetenersTo wash or not to wash all comes down to the type of haircut you typically get. If you get a dry cut, you’ll want to come to the salon with freshly washed hair.A good way to tell whether a dry cut is needed is by looking at the type of haircut you’re going in for. If it’s just a light trim (修剪), bang touch-up (刘海修饰), or you want to add a little more movement to your hair with layers (but not much length), your stylist may prefer to do a dry cut. This technique is also more common on straight hair looking for more shape compared with curls or waves.If you usually get your hair cut while wet, it’s a different story. “Many stylists will select to wash your hair before cutting since most prefer to cut the hair wet rather than dry.” This is especially true when you are looking to remove (去掉) an inch or more from the ends, or are looking to add a lot more texture and layers. If you fall into this camp, you can likely skip the shampoo before headingto the salon.It’s a little different if you’re heading to the salon for a hair-color appointment and not a haircut. You’ll want clean, dry hair for this type of appointment. “Make sure when showing up for a color application that the hair is dry as well so that the stylist can properly assess your needs and apply the color,”said Rivera.It’s also helpful to know that you don’t have to wait to wash your hair again after dyeing it to “set” the color, like many people think. You can go ahead and wash it whenever you’d like and the color should stay intact (完好无损), provided you’re using the right color-preserving hair products.For a hairstyling appointment — whether it be for a big event, wedding, or graduation — you’ll want to show up with hair that’s clean, but not too clean. “Often, with updos (盘发), washing the hair the day before is best because it allows you to come to the salon with completely dry hair that is ready to style,” said Rivera.Second-day hair is easier to work with and holds a style better, but if you end up showering before the appointment, that’s OK —stylists can always use texturizing spray to give the hair some grit.9.When can people go to the salon to get a dry cut according to the text? A.When they want to have their hair curled.B.When they want to straighten their curly hair.C.When they don’t want to make big hairstyle changes.D.When they have the habit of washing their hair daily.10.Which of the following practices actually is unnecessary?A.Applying products that protect hair.B.Going to the barber to colour your hair.C.Washing your hair immediately after colouring it.D.Washing your hair after a period of colouring it.11.What does Rivera suggest people do?A.Style their hair for important occasions.B.Colour their hair as little as possible.C.Wash hair before they go to get it styled.D.Take a bath before going to style hair.12.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.You’d Better Wash Your Hair Before a HaircutB.Should You Wash Your Hair Before a Haircut?C.Which is Better, a Dry Cut or a Wet Cut?D.Should You Wash Your Hair Immediately after Colouring It?The planet’s climate has been changing over thousands of years. The average global temperature today is about 15℃. Scientists are worried that the planet is warming faster than ever before. The 20 warmest years on record have been in the past 22 years, according to the World Meteorological Organization(WMO). If this situation continues, temperatures may rise by 3℃-5℃ by 2100.Scientists say we should try and stop this and not allow the average global temperature to rise by more than 1.5℃. Even a 2℃ rise will be bad for us all. Now, half a degree doesn’t sound like much, but it could make a big difference to the planet. A 2℃ rise will mean that all the coral reefs(珊瑚礁) will disappear, but a 1.5℃ rise means that there will still be some. Also, 18 percent of the insects on Earth will disappear if the temperature goes up by 2℃, compared to 6 percent disappearing at a 1.5℃ rise. Thirty-seven percent of people will be affected by dangerous heatwaves at a 2℃ rise. That’s twice the number compared to at a 1.5℃rise.So, what can we do? Scientists say that carbon(碳) will have to be taken out of the air by machines and stored underground and that these devices already exist. They also say that billions of trees will have to be planted. People should buy less meat. Of all the foods we eat, beef has the biggest effect on climate change because it produces a high amount of greenhouse gases to raise cows. Also, someone suggested not buying new clothes too often, because the fashion industry is a major source of the greenhouse gases that are overheating the planet. And, of course, usetransport that doesn’t bur fossil fuels(化石燃料), like electric cars. It’s also better to walk or ride a bike.13.Why did the author mention the warmest records?A.To explain the role which the WMO plays.B.To give an example for the global warming.C.To show the latest information taken from the WMO.D.To express his worries about climate change.14.What if the average global temperature rises by 2℃?A.All the coral reefs will not survive.B.About 6 percent of the insects will die.C.Nearly 40 percent of people will suffer.D.The Earth will be too hot to live on.15.Which of the following disagrees with the scientists’ advice?A.Growing green plants. B.Eating more beef.C.Cutting back on clothing. D.Going to school on foot.16.What can be the best title for the text?A.Even Half a Degree MattersB.The Planet’s Climate Is ChangingC.Worries about the EnvironmentD.The Average Global Temperature二、七选五Raising teenagers can be both difficult and rewarding(有回报的). They are becoming young adults. Almost all teenagers will have some behavioral outbursts(爆that may create positive(积极的) experiences for teens and parents.Have meals together. Mealtime is when we check in with each other. 18 Eating meals together offers a way for parents and kids to share what is on their minds. It brings families closer by creating trust and understanding to help guide children through the challenges of the teen years.19 As teens develop their own sense of independence, it gets harder tofind time to talk. Talk in the car together, when doing dishes together, or any time you have a chance. Remember that no matter how big their problems seem, what most teens want is love and support. Help them connect with their families and communities. During these years, help teens learn that their words and actions mater. 20 Others may find connection through spiritual communities or from having more responsibilities at home. Connecting with families and communities also helps keep teens safe from riskier activity.Find time to have fun together! What do you both enjoy? Playing chess? Goingto the ballet? Volunteering in your community? Take time to have fun and enjoy each other’s company. No one wants the attention of people they love to be focused onlyon what not to do. This is true for teenagers, too. 21A.Talk with your teen.B.Never try to control your child.C.Parents have a role in keeping their teens safe.D.Relaxing together helps them feel loved and valued.E.This can be hard to do with busy schedules, but it is important.F.Some teens learn this by playing in music bands or team sports.G.But strong relationships can help teens and their parents through hard times. 三、完形填空Suhana has a sister, Shahrine, who is older by 18 months.

I have forgotten the name of the old lady to whom I delivered newspapers but I can’t forget the lesson she taught me in forgiveness .On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the roof of the old lady’s house . I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window of the house.At the sound of broken glass, we knew we were in trouble. We turned and ran away fast. I was too scared about getting caught that first night by the old lady with the broken window. However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn’t been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune.She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence. I made up my mind that I wouldsave my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I thought would cover the cost of her window.I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it.I waited until dark, and put the letter I didn’t sign in her letter box.The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was receiving from her.She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself.I thanked her and ate the cookies happily.After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was stunned.

I was excited because my hands were finally good for something. I told my parents I wanted to play, and naturally, they agreed.Since I first touched the viola, I haven’t been able to put it down. Ignoring the difficulty, I am pulled closer to it each day.Classical music is truly my best friend. It is the trusted friend of every man, woman and child. Various feelings are expressed in classical music. I discovered that when I was eleven and played a cello concerto (大提琴协奏曲) of Bach in a competition, the first movement was joyful, but the second movement was mysterious and full of pain. From the piece, I learned that music expresses not only feelings, but also sudden mood changes. By listening to classical music, I know that someone else shares these feelings. Since I am lucky enough to be able to play classical music, I am comforted by it when I am upset. It gives me a way to escape from my problems for a short period. Classical music can express my joy, sadness and anger.Now look back at that fall day in the third grade and think how gullible I was for believing that anyone, even music teachers, could tell whether hands were perfect for a certain instrument. I’m certain they told me I had “ viola hands” not because they were fortune-tellers (算命师), but because there was a lack of violists in our district. Classical music is one of the best things that ever happened to mankind. If you get introduced to it in the right way, it will become your friend for life. 9.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the first and second paragraphs?

Daniel Parisi and his team realized that the Pamplona bull runs offered a perfect natural experiment to study the activities of frightened crowds.That is a useful topic to explore. Architects, civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly crushes. Unfortunately, reliable information is hard to come by. Authorities, after all, are likely to frown on researchers putting volunteers into serious danger simply to study how they might behave.In July 2022, the researchers set up two cameras on the rooftops and recorded the runners’ behaviors as the animals were charging through the town. Then they brought their recordings back to the lab to calculate the speeds of the runners, the density of the crowd and the probability of a runner tripping and falling. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near. Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd. At the crowd’s maximum speed of around four metres per second, density reached roughly one runner per square metre. This finding is contrary to a long-held assumption that people will slow their pace as group density goes up. Their data further suggests that, in the heat of the moment, people pay little attention to the danger of running into each other, and do not slow down.Their conclusion? The only option for the urban designers is to plan wider stairs,tunnels, bridges and other passages in the future.13.What attracted Daniel Parisi to Pamplona?A.The beauty of the small Spanish city.
