To be fair, this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians, and should best be considered North American. There are, of course, exceptions. Small-minded officials, rude waiters, and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US. Yet American’s friendliness and helpfulness is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence. Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another. Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of distraction, and brought news of the outside world．The tough realities of the border also shaped this tradition of hospitality. Someone traveling alone, if hungry, injured, or ill, often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest settler agent. It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or only a charitable impulse (冲动〕 on the part of the settlers. It reflected the hardship of daily life: if you didn't take in the stranger and take care of him, there was no one else who would. And someday, remember, you might be in the same situation．Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the exhausted traveler. Yet, the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US, especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist routes. "I was just traveling through, got talking with this American, and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner, amazing." Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon, but are not always understood properly. The casual friendliness of many Americans should be understood neither as superficial 〔外表的〕nor as artificial〔虚伪的〕, but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition.As is true of any developed society, in America a complex set of cultural signals and customs is the basis of all social inter-relationships. And, of course, speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns. Visitors who fail to "translate" cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions. For example when an American uses the word "friend", the cultural meanings of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor's language and culture. It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to tell polite customs from individual interest. Yet, being friendly is a virtue 〔美德〕 that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.24．In the eyes of visitors from the outside world, ________．A．rude taxi drivers are hardly seen in the USB．small-minded officials deserve a serious commentC．Canadians are not so friendly as their neighborsD．most Americans are ready to offer help25．We can know from the last paragraph that _______．A．culture has an influence over social inter-relationshipB．polite customs and individual interest are inter-relatedC．various virtues shows themselves only among friendsD．social inter-relationships equal the complex set of cultural customs 26．Families who lived far from one another used to entertain strangers _______．A．to improve their hard life B．in view of their long-distance travelC．to add some taste to their own daily life D．out of a charitable impulse 27．The tradition of hospitality to strangers _______．A．tends to be superficial and artificialB．is generally well kept up in the United StatesC．is always understood properlyD．has something to do with the busy tourist routeCA biologist once criticized for stealing eggs from the nests of the rarest bird in the world has been awarded the “Nobel Prize〞 of conservation after his methods saved nine species from extinction.Professor Carl Jones won the 2021 Indianapolis Prize --- the highest accolade in the field of animal conservation --- for his 40 years of work in Mauritius, where he saved an endangered kestrel〔红隼〕 from becoming the next Great Auk.When the 61-year-old first travelled to the east African island in the 1970s, he was told to close down a project to save the Mauritius kestrel. At the time there were just four left in the wild, making it the rarest bird on Earth. However, he stayed, using the techniques of captive breeding (人工繁殖), which involved snatching eggs from the birds’ nests and hatching them under incubators〔孵化器〕, prompting the mothers to lay another set of eggs in the wild.A decade later, the number of Mauritius kestrels had soared to over 300 and today there are around 400 in the wild. The biologist has also been necessary in efforts to bring other rare species back from the edge of extinction, including the pink pigeon, echo parakeet and Rodriguez warbler.Prof Jones was awarded the $250,000 (£172,000) prize at a ceremony in London.“As a young man in my 20s, I certainly didn’t enjoy the str ess and the tension of the criticism I received,〞 reflecting on the start of his career, he said the Mauritius kestrel project had been seen as a “dead loss〞 at the time. In the 1970s there was fierce opposition to the captive breeding techniques, with critics arguing that they were too risky and took the emphasis off breeding in the wild.Prof Jones has devoted his whole life to his work, only becoming a father for the first time eight years ago, at 53. He said receiving the prize was particularly important to him, because it proved that his work to save birds was right. 28．What does the underlined word “accolade〞 mean in Paragraph 2?A．return B．levelC．honor D．research29．According to the passage, Great Auk is ________.A．an endangered bird B．an extinct birdC．a popular bird D．a fierce bird30．What can we know from the figures in Paragraph 4?A．Taking eggs from the nests has worked well.B．The wild environment for kestrel has changed a lot.C．Kestrel has adapted to the life in the wild.D．It’s difficult to protect kestrel.31．Prof Jones’ idea of taking eggs from the birds’ nests ________.A．was proved of no use B．was widely acceptedC．was promoted officially D．was criticized by some peopleDScientists and marine biologists(海洋生物学家) had something to celebrate last week when two lost humpback whales(座头鲸) returned to the Pacific Ocean. Delta and Dawn — a mother and a baby — had circled the Sacramento Bay area for two weeks before going back to the ocean.＂We all shouted loudly like ‘Yay’!＂said Jim Oswald, a spokesman for the Marine Mammal Center. ＂It’s been really exciting.＂The humpback whales were last spotted on May 29 near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California. Scientists are sure that the whales swam into open water during the evening of May 29 or early the next morning, since there have been no further sightings of the whales. Even so, boats were sent out to look for them, justin case the whales made another wrong turn.Officials spent two weeks trying to get the whales to turn back towards the ocean. Biologists played recordings of whale-feeding as well as unfamiliar sounds to try to make the whales head back to the Pacific Ocean.However, Delta and Dawn gave scientists an unexpected chance to study humpback whales in the wild. Scientists were able to gather sound recordings and watch their behaviors. This is especially exciting because humpback whales are an endangered species. What’s more, scientists don’t usually have the chance to observe (观察) them in their natural habitat.＂All those things are very hard to get,＂ said Oswald,＂So what we are doing is filling up the knowledge blank on humpback whales in the wild. ＂ Scientists should be able to use this information to help other lost whales in the future. 32．Jim Oswald was very happy because____________.A．the whales traveled to Sacramento BayB．he found the lost humpback whalesC．the scientists held a great celebrationD．the whales returned to the Golden Gate Bridge33．In order to make the whales go back to the ocean, the biologists____________. A．fed them with other animals B．swam into open waterC．played music for them D．played strange sounds to them34．The fifth paragraph mainly tells us that____________.A．humpback whales will disappear in the futureB．humpback whales were excited in their natural habitatC．scientists learned more about humpback whalesD．scientists are worried about humpback whales35．What’s the best title for the passage?A．Looking for the Lost Whales B．Helping the Lost WhalesC．The Lost Whales Returned D．Two Whales Were Lost第二节〔一共5小题；每一小题2分，满分是10分〕根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs,he was running up, and he never came down the stairs,no matter what. I think that was his way of telling me, “We’ve got to go back up.”When I got to the top of the stairs, I turned around and saw a light on, but I didn’t remember leaving one on.I walked downstairs again, and that’s when I saw fire. I immediately shouted to my wife to wake up and get ourthree kids. I then broke the window, got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn’t slip off (滑下去). Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.I’m scared of heights and have physical issues (身体上的问题), because of my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn’t let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof and got the wind knocked out of me when I landed.I found our ladder(梯子), placed it against the house, and climbed back up to the roof.

Then I went back up again and got my wife.I tried to get my dog, but I never saw him again.I’m not a hero. I’m just an ordinary person who would help anybody.

According to Daniela DeFrino of the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine and College of Nursing, teens rarely stated they were depressed, but they often described their feelings like, “I’m down. I always find somehow to go back to stressful mode (有压力的状态).”“Parents can easily overlook these expressions or link them to regular stress,” said DeFrino. “But sometimes there is so much more under the surface that can lead to depression.” DeFrino and colleagues went through deep interviews done with 369 teenagers taking part in an ongoing health study paid for by the National Institute of Mental Health. The teens, considered at risk for depression, gave indirect clues to their state of mind.These teens are reported feeling angry, a loss of interest in activities they used to enjoy, and either sleeping too much or having trouble sleeping. In terms of (在...方面) the reasons, most mentioned homework pressure and expectations of success. Teens whose moods (情绪) had worsened talked about arguments with parents, verbal (口头的) and emotional abuse. Two-thirds of the teens had visited doctors for health problems. “Doctors, nurses and other medical providers need to be aware of the opportunities to care a child’s mental health, ” DeFrino said.“Teens may be experiencing a lot of internal(内心的) struggles and difficult life stresses, which need our examination with sensitive questioning and understanding,” DeFrino explained. “In this way, we can find children’s mental health problems and help deal with them in advance.”32.How do teens often express their depression according to Paragraph 1?A. They use indirect ways to show it.B. They mention they are depressed directly.C. They say they are busy and sleepy.D. They say they don’t know what to look for.33.What does the underlined word “overlook” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Remember.B. Ignore.C.Watch.D. Forget.34.Most teens who took part in the health study __________.A. refused to see doctorsB. never took part in activitiesC. felt stressed about homework and successD. argued with their parents and teachers35.What does the text mainly talk about?A. Teens and care providers.B. Teen depression.C. Teen stress.D. Teens and parents.第二节七选五Health and happinessHappiness can have an effect on our health. Here are two reasons._ 36______. When you’re happy, you’re more likely to stick to your healthy habits, such as exercising and eating well. In turn, these habits work on the hormones (荷尔蒙) that influence your happiness.Feeling happy helps prevent you from becoming overweight. When your mood（情绪）is down, you’re more likely to (更加有可能) skip workouts (不做锻炼), overeat and have difficulty sleeping. Both short-term (短期) stress and long-term stress have been found to increase appetite (胃口).37 . As is known to us all, being overweight harms our health.So how to become happy? Here are some tips(建议). 38 . Exercise decreases the body’s level of stress hormones. Set fitness goals, such as achieving a personal record in a race or mastering a new yoga pose (瑜伽姿势). As you get stronger and gain energy, you’ll probably see a boost (增强) in self-esteem (自尊), pride and confidence. And you’ll feel happier in the end.You can make a “me time” list. Whether it’s a 10-munute break or a 60-munute “happy hour”, finding time foryourself every day will make you a happier and healthier person. 39 You can take a bath, or spend some quiet time with a good book and a cup of tea, or catch up on your favorite TV show.You can give up doing something. To avoid feeling stressed or over whelmed(难以承受的), you can do the important things first and have realistic (切合实际的) expectations for yourself. 40 While it’s important to be there for the people around you, the world won’t end if you say “no” to them and “yes” to yourself.A.Downsize (精简)your to-do list and make a not-to-do list.B.They can make you put on weight and become overweight.C.They are all very harmful to you.D.I often spare (节省；匀出) a “happy hour ”for myself.E.You can get moving to get happy.F.Feeling happy makes you stick to (坚持) your healthy habits.G.Here are some ideas to get started.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空Ten years has passed since serious troubles began to visit my home.

The robot with more goals wins.Gao Linge, a boy from Hangzhou Guangming Middle School, helped make one of the robots for the match.“My school bou ght the main board (主板),” said Gao, 14. “Then I decided what my robot looked like and made a computer program for it.”Gao’s robot was eight centimeters tall and had two arms. It had four sensors (传感器) to “see” and “kick” the “football”.Ying Xuehai, a 12-year-old student from Gao’s school, also made a robot. His robot played against Gao’s. The match decided who would go to the final game. Ying lost the game. So he gave many of his robot’s parts to Gao.Even so, Gao’s robot didn’t win the final. It played well in the first five minutes. Then it slowed down. By the end of the match, it could hardly move. What was wrong? Gao and Ying found the problem — the robot ran out of batteries (电池)!“We’ll solve the problem and beat the other schools next time!” said the two boys.6. ________ is popular in China.A. FootballB. RobotC. SensorD. Game7. How many robots are needed in a match?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.8. The third paragraph mainly talks about ________.A. a wonderful robot football gameB. how robots can score more goalsC. the rules of robot football gamesD. how robots can win the matches9. Gao Linge lost the match for the reason that ________.A. his robot ran out of powerB. he broke the rules of the gameC. he used Ying Xuehai’s robot’s partsD. his robot happened to be out of order10. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Gao Linge is as old as Ying Xuehai.B. Ying X uehai’s robot was 8 centimeters tall.C. Gao’s and Ying’s robots were both bought.D. T he passage doesn’t tell us who won the final.CI Am A PencilChildren’s book author Sam Swope took a job teaching writing to third-graders in the New York City.

Then he sits on the sofa and thinks about an article he needs to write ... Wait a minute! Radio? Breakfast? Sofa? What kind of workplaceis this? Well, actually it is John’s house, and he is a telecommuter — he works at home, communicating with the workplace through the Internet.Like John, millions of people — and their employers — are finding that telecommuting is a great way to work. Telecommuters can work on their own schedule(预定表). They work in the comfort of homes, where they can also look after young children or elderly parents. They save time and money by not traveling to work. Their employers save, too, because they need less office space and furniture. Studies show that telecommuters change jobs less often. This saves employers even more money. Telecommuting helps society, too, by reducing pollution and traffic problems.Jobs that are suited to telecommuting include writing, design work, computer programming and accounting. If a job is related to working with information, a telecommuter can probably do it.16. From the passage we can learn that John does his job ___________.A. by telephoneB. in his officeC. away from homeD. through the Internet17.

2023年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试模拟考试（二）英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解The number of passengers varies among airports, with some airports serving tens of millions of passengers. Interestingly, some of the busiest airports in the country are not necessarily the biggest by surface area.Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL)Atlanta Airport has been the world's busiest airport since 1998. Approximately 104 million people traveled through it in 2019, 20 million passengers more than the second busiest airport. ATL is located 11 kilometers away from Atlanta and named after Maynard Jackson and William Hartsfield, Atlanta's two former mayors.Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW)DFW Airport is located between Dallas and Fort Worth, covering 69.63 square kilometers. In 2019, the airport served 75 million passengers, the most in its 45 years of existence. It has service to over 250 destinations, the majority being domestic destinations within the country. The airport has its fire protection unit, zip code, police, and emergency services.McCarran International Airport (LAS)Located approximately 8 kilometers south of Las Vegas, it occupies 11.3 square kilometers. It was constructed in 1942 and opened to flights in 1948. LAS is now the 9th busiest airport in the US, serving over 51 million passengers in 2019. Initially, the runways were made of asphalt(沥青), but are now made of concrete.Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT)CLT Airport was opened in 1935 as Charlotte Municipal Airport. 19 years later, it was renamed after Ben Elbert Douglas, Charlotte's mayor, when the airport was expanded. The present name was given to the airport in 1982. CLT is located about 10 kilometers from Charlotte and is an airport for military and commercial use.1、Which is the best airport to go to for people who need immediate help？A. ATL.B. DFW.C. LAS.D. CLT.2、What's mentioned about LAS？A. Its present runways have been upgraded.B. It took six years to prepare for construction.C. Its original asphalt runways caused the accident.D. It received the most passengers in the world in 2019.3、What do ATL and CLT have in common？A. They are for commercial purpose only.B. They are the world's busiest airports.C. They are related to people's names.D. They were built by former mayors.If someone had told me five years ago that I would be living happily ever after on a small farm in western Oklahoma, I would have immediately denied the possibility. Back then, I was a confirmed city girl. I enjoyed the city life.Then one day, while we were checking my mother's farm for her, I looked around, liked what I saw and asked my husband, “Why don't we build a house here on the farm?”To my surprise, he said, “Yes!”And so we began a new and very different chapter in our life story. My husband and I set out to deal with the land. We took down dead trees, knocked down the outbuildings and planted vegetable and flower gardens. We learned new skills as we worked and provided the locals with humorous moments as they answered our questions. We built a home to welcome family and friends, to share the beauty and bounty of the land.We soon realized the land had played a joke on us: it had changed and transformed us in our efforts to change it. We lost weight and gained muscles.We've learned to recognize and honor nature's cycles and timing instead of clocks, calendars, schedules and to-do lists. With only two clocks in the house, we enjoy the flow of days into nights. Our timeless life allows us to appreciate sunrises and sunsets—each a unique event that camera and words only partially capture.Living a simple life in the country has led us back to common sense. We've learned to be resourceful in solving problems and can think of many unique ways. I become better at handling a situation with fewer resources and conveniences.In the quietness of the land, we hear and appreciate nature's music. We also listen to the silence. Walking through the grasses, gazing at the century-old trees and wondering about all the changes and history they have witnessed are relaxing pastimes. I have to be truthful: caring for the land is a joyful job.4、How did her husband react to the author's proposal?A. Opposed.B. Approving.C. Surprised.D. Concerned.5、How did the author benefit from the country life?A. She enjoyed better health.B. She made much money by working.C. She regained the respect from the farmers.D. She improved her relationship with her family.6、What is the author's feeling when living in the country?A. She becomes more creative.B. She becomes more humorous.C. She becomes more honest with others.D. She becomes more interested in travelling.7、What message does the author want to convey?A. Simple life is the most important.B. Country life is better than city life.C. Getting close to nature can be joyful.D. Living in the country is everyone's dream.If you are a perfectionist, you are probably familiar with the feeling of wanting to get everything just right. You may struggle with handing in papers, agonize over projects at work, and even worry about small errors from the past. High standards are one thing, but perfectionism is quite another. And as some researchers have discovered, pursuing perfection can have serious consequences to both mental and physical well-being.According to researchers, perfectionists hold themselves to unrealistically high standards and become self-critical if they believe they haven't met these standards. Perfectionists are also likely to feel guilt and shame if they experience failures, which often leads them to avoid situations where they are worried they might fail.In one study, researchers looked at a total of 284 studies (with over 57, 000 participants) and found that perfectionism was associated with symptoms of depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and eating disorders. They also found that people higher in perfectionism (i.e. participants who more strongly identified with perfectionist traits) also reported higher levels of overall psychological distress.In an article published in 2016, researchers looked at how perfectionism and depression were related over time. They found that people higher in perfectionism tended to have increases in depression symptoms, which suggests that perfectionism may be a risk factor for developing depression. In other words, although people may think of their perfectionism as something that helps them succeed, it appears that their perfectionism may actually be harmful for their mentalhealth.Since perfectionism is associated with negative outcomes, what can someone with perfectionist tendencies do to change their behavior? Although people are sometimes hesitant to give up their perfectionist tendencies, psychologists point out that giving up on perfection doesn't mean being less successful. In fact, because mistakes are an important part of learning and growing, embracing imperfection can actually help us in the long run.8、Why does the author describe the scene in the first paragraph？A. To introduce the topic.B. To make comparisons.C. To support the author's argument.D. To define a concept.9、Who can be defined as a perfectionist？A. A person who is determined to achieve high goals.B. A person who tends to feel sorry for what he has done.C. A person who blames himself for not being that successful.D. A person who holds high standards for themselves.10、How can perfectionism be harmful？A. It may lower one's mental health.B. It reflects one's psychological level.C. It results in depression immediately.D. It stops one from recovering from depression.11、What will be discussed in the following paragraph？A. A call for not being a perfectionist.B. Another side-effect of perfectionism.C. Why perfectionism is harmful.D. How to avoid perfectionism.Some issues like climate change or the ongoing pandemic(大流行病)are increasingly complex and dynamic. Yet solving problems like these requires new approaches that extend beyond traditional ways of thinking. A study led by Yale Professor of Psychology, Paul O'Keefe, found that having a growth mindset(思维模式) of interest may activate this type of innovation.Professor O'Keefe established in earlier studies that people hold different beliefs about the nature of interest. Those with a growth mindset of interest tend to believe that interests can be developed and cultivated, while those with a fixed mindset of interest tend to believe that interests are inborn and simply need to be “found”.For example, in one task, research participants were instructed to create new college majors by combining two or more existing academic Arts or Science programs at theiruniversity. After coding and analyzing the ideas they generated, the team found that peoplesciences to create new majors like computational economics rather than creating majors that drew from only one of those areas, like computational chemistry.As Professor O'Keefe pointed out, “This research provides a useful direction for organizations whose products and services call for creative solutions. Take smartphones for example. You need not only computer science and engineering knowledge, but also an understanding of psychology and visual design to create a better product. Employees with a growth mindset may be more likely to frame innovative ideas that bridge multiple areas of knowledge to achieve better solutions.”The benefits of a growth mindset of interest may also extend to those seeking employment. This is a pressing issue because many people are becoming unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Having a growth mindset of interest can help job seekers expand their interests and become more adaptable to different fields, and tend to learn new skills.12、What's the author's opinion about the world today？A. It is witnessing various types of innovations.B. It is undergoing great and profound changes.C. It faces more varied and complicated problems.D. It has removed many traditional ways of thinking.13、What can best replace the underlined the word “bridge”？A. Study.B. Plan.C. Choose.D. Connect.14、What does the author want to illustrate with the example of smartphones？A. Hi-tech products can boost people's general thinking.B. Hi-tech products are needed in multi-subject research.C. Improved technology gives birth to highly popular products.D. Making innovative products needs knowledge of many fields.15、What is the author's suggestion to those who are seeking employment？A. Learning practical skills.B. Broadening their interests.C. Staying safe in the pandemic.D. Knowing their pressing issues.二、七选五16、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。
