第一部分阅读（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
ABioluminescence (生物荧光) is to California as the Aurora Borealis is to the Arctic. These events occur when single-celled organisms, known as dinoflagellates (甲藻), suddenly give off a kind of light after being disturbed. They’re most common in spring and into summer, especially during years with a combination of good rains and warm weather. Here are a few tips to help you witness bioluminescence:Monitor Social MediaThe first reports of a bioluminescence event are likely to show up on Instagram and Twitter, which are easily searchable. You can also set up a warning on Google that will round up news coverage.Check With AquariumsSuch institutions as the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla, the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey might post updates on their websites or social media feeds, especially if bioluminescence is happening locally.Find a Dark LocationIf bioluminescence is ongoing, try to find a stretch of coast that’s as far away from light as possible. Get out before the moon rises for the best conditions and some experts also suggest that two hours after sunset is a good bet. Give your eyes time to adjust and use your flashlight’s red light, which will keep your vision adjusted to the darkness.Track HotspotsThe best displays can vary from night to night, so check again on social media for updates. The environmental website Treehugger named San Diego one of the world’s eight best places to see bioluminescence. Meanwhile, north of San Francisco at Point Reyes National Seashore, Tomales Bay is a dependable spot for bioluminescence and you can go out on guided trips with Blue Waters Kayaking.1. What kind of condition is better for witnessing bioluminescence?A. Hot dry weather.B. Warm rainy weather.C. Cold rainy weather.D. Cold dry weather.2. What should you stay away from when witnessing bioluminescence?A. Water.B. Sunset.C. Darkness.D. Light.3. Where may be the best place to see bioluminescence?A. In La Jolla.B. In Long Beach.C. In San Diego.D. In San Francisco.BPeople are often surprised by my fear of blood and needles. Working in a public health unit, I probably have more daily interaction with syringes (注射器) than the average person. But the truth is, having my blood drawn scares me.When I was 9, I had an extremely high temperature. A nurse rudely stuck the needle into my arm, causing a sharp pain. I avoided having blood taken from my body for the next years. A few months before I turned 30, my doctor ordered a blood test as part of my physical exam. I panicked. Sensing my fear, she gently suggested I see a psychiatrist (精神科医生). “Dr. M helped my other patients with the same fear,” she said.When Dr. M called to set up an appointment, I hesitated. Talking about personal problems to a medically licensed stranger was uncommon in my family. “A psychiatrist?” Mother asked. “He’ll just put you on drugs. Can’t you get over this yourself?” I almost listened. But I went to Dr. M’s clinic finally. “Phobias (恐惧症) are pretty easy to treat,” he said. I wasn’t convinced of his words. But despite my doubts, I was running out of options.We started with basic exposure treatment. I watched videos of blood being drawn every day. As I started to feel more at ease with needles, Dr. M suggested drawing blood. As he gently pressed the needle into my flesh, I felt dizzy and breathed deeply. After a few minutes, I looked at the needle. It wasn’t so bad. I didn’t pass out. “You’re doing well,” Dr. M said.I still find it unpleasant getting blood drawn, but thanks to several months of treatment, I’m less scared. I hate to admit it, but Dr. M is right — phobias can be treated. Sometimes, we have to leave our comfort zone and face our fears. And this can lead to freedom in the end.4. What caused the author’s phobia?A. Her sensitivity to pains.B. Her bad medical experience.C. Her anxiety about the blood test.D. Her regular contact with syringes.5. What was the author’s mother’s attitude toward her appointment with Dr. M?A. Conservative.B. Objective.C. Supportive.D. Disapproving.6. What can we know about the author’s treatment?A. It was smoother than expected.B. It eased the author’s pain totally.C. It centered on watching videos.D. It cost the author a great deal of money.7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Walk toward what scares usB. Bravery brings us a happier lifeC. Ups and downs make one strongD. Nurse our mental health carefullyCIn a paper published recently in Nature Communications, the authors, including experts from China’s Tsinghua University, said that most of the current electricity demand in advanced, industrialized nations can be met by some combination of wind and solar power. “Wind and solar could meet more than 80 percent of demand in many places without crazy amounts of storage or additional generating ability, which is the critical point (临界点),” said co-author Steve Davis, UCI professor of Earth system science, “if we want to have a zero-carbon emission (排放) future without using fossil energy resources”.The team analyzed 39 years’ worth of hourly energy demand data from 42 major countries to evaluate the adequacy of wind and solar power resources to serve their needs. They found that a full shift to sustainable power resources can be easier for lower-latitude (低纬度的) countries, which can rely on solar power availability throughout the year. The researchers highlighted Germany as an example of a relatively smaller country, in terms of land mass, at higher latitude which will make it more challenging to meet its electricity needs with wind and solar resources.“Historic data show that countries which are farther from the equator (赤道) can occasionally experience periods during which there is very limited solar and wind power availability,” said lead author Dan Tong, assistant professor of Earth system science at Tsinghua University. “One recent occurrence of this phenomenon in Germany lasted for two weeks, forcing Germans to turn to dispatchable (可调度的) generation, which in many cases is provided by fossil fuel-burning plants.” Among the approaches the researchers suggested to alleviate this problem are building up generating capacity, developing long-term storage capabilities and pooling resources of multiple nations on a continental land mass to make the burden lighter to a certain country.“Europe provides a good example to help people produce net-zero carbon electricity,” said Tong. “A lot of consistency and reliability could be provided by a system that includes solar resources from Spain, Italy and Greece with plentiful wind available in the Netherlands, Denmark and the Baltic region.8. What does Steve Davis imply by saying “critical point”?A. Electricity demand will be beyond human control in the future.B. Carbon emission will be reduced by using wind and solar power.C. Electricity generating can be replaced by wind and solar power.D. Fossil energy will be used with zero-carbon emissions in the future.9. What can make a country rely on solar power all the year?A. Having a large land of its own.B. Having a small population.C. Being developed in all respects.D. Being located near the equator.10. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Ease.B. Stress.C. Accept.D. Arrange.11. What can we learn from Tong’s words in the last paragraph?A. People can solve increasing energy demand in the future like Europe.B. Many countries in Europe have a lot of solar resources to make electricity.C. Europe has managed to produce net-zero carbon electricity on the continent.D. Countries on a continent can rely on each other to produce zero-carbon electricity.DOver the past decades, experts have done a considerable amount of research to explore different ways to encourage children’s learning. Especially, there has been a common focus on how physical activity, separated from the learning activities, can improve children’s learning. However, there has been less of a focus aimed at the potential of integrating (合并) physical activity into the learning activities.Researchers from the University of Copenhagen conducted the Basketball Mathematics study at five Danish primary and elementary schools. The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that integrates basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children’s motivation for mathematics.756 children from 40 different classes participated in the project, where about half of them — once a week for six weeks — had Basketball Mathematics during gym class, while the other half played basketball without mathematics.“During classes with Basketball Mathematics, the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations associated with various basketball exercises. An example could be counting how many times they could sink a basket from three meters away vs at a one-meter distance, and adding up the numbers. Both the math and basketball elements could be adjusted to suit the children’s levels, as well as being adjusted for whether it was addition, multiplication or some other operations that needed to be practiced,” explains Linn Damsgaard, a leading researcher.The results showed that children’s motivation for math integrated with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning. Children also experienced a 14% increase in self-determination compared with classroom teaching. Meanwhile Basketball Mathematics improved their math confidence.“We are planning to do research to examine whether the Basketball Mathematics model can strengthen performance in mathematics. Once we have the final results, we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize (优先处理) more physical activity and movement in such subjects. Eventually, we hope to succeed in putting these tools into school system and teacher education,” says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke.12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A. To show the advantage of the study.B. To explain the reason for the study.C. To conduct a review of past research.D. To introduce a way to raise math grades.13. What can we learn about the study?A. Kids couldn’t enjoy basketball in the process.B. Kids were divided into 40 groups.C. It required kids to do math after playing basketball.D. It tailored activities to different kids.14. What effect does basketball have on the participants?A. More motivation for exercise.B. More confidence in basketball.C. A gain in desire to learn math.D. A rise in determination to learn.15. How does Jacob Wienecke expect the study to help educators?A. Make math learning easier.B. Inspire students’ math confidence.C. Build physical activity into teaching.D. Notice the benefits of physical exercise.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It shows that,even with limited time in the college classroom,learning can happen quite quickly and well,”said professor Alison Gabriele,the co-author of the paper.Beyond that,it gives parents more reasons to study a second language as part of a family effort.Further research has shown that learning a language as a family effort improves everyone’s abilities and gives opportunities for learning something that are mostly absent from classroom settings.National Geographic reports in an interview with Christine Jernigan,author of Family Language Learning:Learn Another Language that as for immersion(沉浸)in language study,practicing a second language with people is the most important part,and who talks to each other more than a family?Language learners need to be brave.Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’advice.Most people will be far more comfortable making mistakes around family members than in a classroom setting.Furthermore,any home activity,whether that’s gardening,playing in the yard,watching movies,going shopping,cleaning,or cooking a meal,becomes an opportunity for language learning.Jernigan suggests preparing vocabulary before an activity and using it as short homework.Jernigan suggests using subtitles(字幕)too,so you can see which words are being used.12．What does the new study in Paragraph1find?A．Kids often travel a lot on their own.B．Adults have learnt a second language better than kids.C．Adults can study a second language as quickly as kids.D．Kids are likely to develop the increased neural connections.13．What does Alison Gabriele think of learning a language in the college classroom?A．It is successful.B．It is challenging.C．It is disappointing.D．It is boring.14．What is the advantage of learning a language as a family effort?A．Helping kids form good learning habits.B．Making parents control kids easily.C．Keeping kids focusing on the classroom.D．Having more chances to learn in different situations.15．What should language learners do according to the text?A．Try to take others’advice less.B．Fit in with new learning environment.C．Be willing to accept others’comments.D．Spend much time doing housework.第二节（共5小题;每小题3分满分15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。
山东省聊城市2023-2023学年高三上学期期中英语试卷整理山东省聊城市2023-2023学年高三上学期期中英语试卷一、阅读理解Given the size of the country, the climate in Australia varies greatly from one zone to the next. Generally speaking, there are four seasons across most of the country while the Top End (including Darwin, Katherine, Kakadu and Arnhem Land), Broome, the Kimberley and Tropical North Queensland experience a ‘wet season’ ( November to April) and a ‘dry season’ (May to October).It’s also important to remember that Australia’s seasons are at opposite times to those in the Northern Hemisphere (半球). So if you’re looking for an endless summer, just head Down Under as things start to cool off in the Northern Hemisphere.Summer in Australia falls between December and February and is famous for sunny days with high temperatures. It’s the wet season in the tropical north (November to April), which is characterised by monsoonal (季风) rains. Many tourism operations are closed for the season, so are some national parks (such as Kakadu) due to flood risks. The same period is also the official hurricane season for areas around Cairns, although storms can also occur outside of this period.For the ideal Australian summer, head to the southern parts of the country where you’ll find hot, sunny days to enjoy the unbelievableexperiences on offer. The great weather encourages a steady flock of visitors to the country’s beautiful beaches to swim, surf or just relax. Celebrate the new year like a true Australian—with a beach barbecue—or visit Sydney for their internationally famous New Year’s Eve fireworks display. It’s a popular time for travel in Australia, both for local families and international visitors. Check the school holiday calendar for more information on break periods, and remember to book your accommodation in advance to avoid disappointment.1.Which month is considered as a dry season in BroomeA.April.B.September.C.November.D.December.2.What does the underlined part “Down Under” in Paragraph 2 refer toA.A club.B.An airport.C.Australia.D.The Northern Hemisphere.3.What is the main characteristic in the northern Australia in summerA.Bad weather.B.The beach barbecue.C.Fireworks.D.Beautiful beaches.I saw the most beautiful thing ever one morning. It was early with a slight frost on the ground, and I was walking on grass down to the farm—my mind on the daily routines.Suddenly a shining flash erupted straight from the ground about 15 feet in front of me, and shot up into the sky. It was so brilliant, clear and clean. I thought the only thing that could make such a flash must be a diamond—maybe someone had lost some kind of jewelry. Or some kind of lightning strikes—so bright. I waited to see if it repeated but it didn’t.I walked slowly towards it. There was nothing to see. I stared down at the grass, searching for gold or some kind of metal. Nothing. So I dropped down really close and there it was! A tiny spider’s web, delicately hanging between grass, flashing in a number of colors. The rising sun had caught the exact angle of the dewdrops (露珠), and that light had exploded up into the sky.It was unbelievable, such a powerful flash from something so small and fragile, and I would have destroyed it beneath my feet. It was as if the unseen world was giving me a heads-up. Hello! Look what’s around you. I’ve never forgotten that moment.So take some time to notice the wonder of nature that most of us never even see. So much beauty all around us if we would only take the time. Look at the tiny flowers that cover playing fields—we walk all over them without a second glance. The colors of practically any flower on the earth are breathtaking and all natural—if we would only notice. Take the time and discover from nature one secret beautiful thing that you can keep in your heart. Take a picture. It’s what life really consists of. And it’s free.1.What actually caused the flashA.A diamond.B.The lightning.C.A piece of metal.D.A spider’s web.2.Why did the writer feel the discovery unforgettableA.The flash is very splendid.B.The spider’s web is mysterious.C.The shining object was priceless.D.Something small touches her soul.3.What does the writer try to convey in the last paragraphA.Appreciate the beauty of nature.B.Be considerate towards the weak.C.Find time to play outdoors.D.Keep a secret deep in heart.As our global population continues to rise, some assessments suggest it could reach nearly 10 billion people by 20xx. To feed that many people, we will need to produce quantities of food.With only 30 seasons of planting and harvest left before the population could hit that 10 billion figure, it’s clear that agriculture has to change, if we are to have any hope of feeding the planet.Over the past six months I’ve travelled all over Europe speaking to pioneering scientists and engineers, global-thought leaders, and of course, knowledgeable farmers, for the BBC World News and BBC Future series, Follow the Food in order to examine issues around food supply and even find some potential solutions for our future.One of the most shocking facts I learned is the amount of good and eatable food that gets wasted. According to the United Nations, “A third of all food produced ends up rotting (腐烂) in the dustbins of consumers and markets, or damaging due to poor transportation and harvesting practices.”Spending time with farmers, producers, and consumers, I quickly saw how our current ways of growing, processing and selling food just aren’t sustainable (可持续的).The only way we can feed 10 billion people by 20xx is if the farming and food industries become much more sustainable. And that requires changes to the whole model of growing, processing, transporting, storing and selling. It means a lot of businesses and governments need to take action. But so too do we all. Whether that’s going to the market and choosing the most “ugly” vegetables for dinner, encouraging supermarkets to change their labelling to show us the carbon footprint of our food, or using new tech to avoid waste, there’s so much we can do to value our food and its producers.1.How does the writer feel about the production of enough food by 20xxA.Optimistic.B.Impossible.C.Challenging.D.Confident.2.What is the purpose of the writer’s journey in EuropeA.To experience various careers in Europe.B.To have a knowledge of farmers.C.To become the best host in BBC programs.D.To make further studies of present situation.3.What can be inferred from the statement of the United NationsA.Plenty of food waste is avoidable.B.Food production is far from enough.C.Advanced agriculture is urgently needed.D.Foods are too fragile to be well stored.4.What is the main idea of the last paragraphA.The procedure for food production is complex.B.Joint efforts are needed to feed 10 billion people.C.There are great opportunities for food business.ernments should take full responsibility.二、七选五The Oxford English Dictionary defines work as the “mental or physical activity as a means of earning income”. Since the industrial revolution, the working world has seen dramatic changes, 1. We couldnever have dreamed of most of them just decades ago.We are finding new ways to explore our inborn talents and use our knowledge and skills for the good of the world. Yet most of us are operating under an outdated definition of work. We think work should be hard and that it should be a sacrifice. 2. Only powerful and successful people are able to experience the pleasure of working.3. As a saying goes, “The mind is everything. Whatever you think, you become.” Stanford psychologist Carol Dweek’s research on the power of thinking and a growth mindset provides even more evidence that our realities and futures are greatly shaped by how our minds approach the situation.The next best step is to come up with your own definition of work. Think through the following two questions: 4. How similar or different is your actual day-to-day work to or from your definition Ask these questions often—not just once.If you want to spend the majority of your time loving what you do and feeling a deep sense of fulfillment, you need to take charge of creating this for yourself. It doesn’t matter whether you are a businessman or a student with a part-time job. 5.A. What is your definition of workB. New jobs are being created every day.C. Do you understand the definition of workD. Enjoying work is simply something “nice to have”.E. We are supposed to work hard to satisfy our own need.F. But we must remember that the mind creates the experience.G. You have more power to manage your experience of work than you believe.三、完形填空When I arrived at college, I expected everything to quickly fall into place.
