To many people, the cause is clear, we eat too much. But scientific evidence (证据)does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today. Yet they ate more food. In those days, people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average(平均地) than thinner people. In fact, some investigations (调查)such as a 1979 study of 3 545 London office workers, reports that fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men ran, the more fat they lost. The more they ran, the more they ate. Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.56. What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have?A. They are too thin.B. They work too hard.C. They are too fat.D. They lose too much body fat.57. According to the information given in the passage, among 500 Americans, how many have weight problem?A. 30B. 50C. 100D. 15058 Which of the following words can take the place of the word slim in this passage?A. Poor.B. Thin.C. Healthy.D. Rich.59. Compared with the adult American population today, the Americans of 1910 ____________.A. ate more food and had more physical activitiesB. ate less food but had more activitiesC. ate less food and had less physical exerciseD. had more weight problemsB ★Australia is the smallest continent in the world. It is a little smaller than China. It is on the Southern Hemisphere of the earth. Australia is big, but its population is small. The population of Australia is nearly as large as that Shanghai.Enough laws have been made to fight against pollution. The cities in Australia have little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish in the rivers. Plants grow very well. Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and west to a wild flower exhibition. There we saw large numbers of wild flowers on show, most of which we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers. Every year in spring Perth has wild flower exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent a day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves very much. When we heard bells ringing at the top of the hills, we looked up, but what we saw made us pick up all our things and run back as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us along the path.Australia is famous for its sheep and kangaroos（袋鼠）. After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself among the while sheep. Sheep, sheep, everywhere you can see sheep.60．Which country is the writer most possibly from?A．Japan. B．Canada.

I opened my eyes and found it was seven forty, so I jumped out of bed and rushed to a nearby bus stop without breakfast. Fortunately the bus started going as soon as I got on it. I was sure I could reach the school before the bell rang. However, the bus suddenly stopped. There was something wrong with it and we had to get off and wait for another one. I felt I couldn’t wait and the school was only fifteen minutes’walk, so I ran to the school as fast as possible. Just at this moment, it began to rain hard.I reached the classroom with all my clothes wet through. Mr. Smith, our physics teacher, had begun his class. I was always afraid of him. I hesitated（犹豫）for a moment, and then I opened the door.“It’s you again, Jim,”Mr. Smith said angrily. I’ve told you not to be late, but you …”. Then he suddenly stopped when he noticed my wet clothes. He quickly took off hisown jacket and asked me to put it on. “I don’t want you to catch a cold,”he said kindly.I went to my seat with Mr. Smith’s jacket on.It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, Mr. Smith’s physics class so interesting and I changed my mind, there and then, about being afraid of him.64．According t o this passage, classes in Jim’s school probably began at ______.A．9B．8am C．7am D．7:30 am65．Why did Jim hesitate before he opened the door?A．He was afraid of facing Mr. Smith.B．He didn’t like to have the physics class.C．Mr. Sm ith didn’t let him go into the classroom.D．He didn’t want to interrupt others.66．Jim found Mr. Smith physics lesson interesting that day because ______.A．he knew physics was very important B．he wanted to go to s famous universityC．h e didn’t want to fall behind the others D．he was moved by his physics teacher67．We can infer from the passage that _____.A．Jim usually went to school by bike B．it was the first time Jim had been lateC．Jim was often late for school D．Jim’s mother also got up late that morningD★★I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,”she’d said again, “is forElizabeth.”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me. She showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”，but she lived “on the surface”.As years passed and I had my own family, I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that shedid forgive(宽恕) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I could not be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.68. The writer began to love her mother’s desk _____________.A. after Mother diedB. before she became a writerC. when she was a childD. when Mother gave it to her69. The passage shows that_____________ .A. Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughterB. Mother was very serious about everything her daughter had doneC. Mother cared much about her daughter in wordsD. Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words70 The word “gulf”means ____________.A. deep understanding between the old and the youngB. difficult ideas between the mother and the daughterC. free talks between the mother and the daughterD. part of the sea going far in land71. What did Mother with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?A. She had never received the letter.B. For years, she often talked about the letter.C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.D. She read the letter again and again before she died.72. What’s the best title(题目) of the passage?A. My Letter to MotherB. Mother and ChildrenC. My Mother’s DeskD. Talks Between Mother and Me第二节阅读短文，简要回答咨询题（共3小题，每小题2分，满分6分）There was a painter who was known for his painting skills. One day this skilled artist met a beautiful woman. He fell in love with her at first sight. Then he showered her with kindness and words of praise until she consented（接受）to be his wife.Not long after they were married, however, the beautiful woman found when he admired her classic beauty; it was as if he was standing in front of a work of art rather than in front of a human being. He expressed his great desire to paint her rare beauty.“Please sit for me in the workroom,”he pleaded (请求). “and I will make your beauty immortal (永恒的). The work will be my masterpiece (杰作).”So the beautiful young woman sat patiently in his room, complaining nothing. Day after day she sat obediently, because she loved him and she hoped that he would see her love in her smile and obedience.She sometimes wanted to tell him, “Please love me as a person rather than an object!”But she said nothing.Hour after hour, day after day, the artist became so absorbed (投入的) in his work that he didn’t notice that his wife was becoming weak and unhappy.Finally when he finished his work, he cried. Because when he turned to his beloved wife he found that she was dead.73. Find in the passage a word closet in meaning to the underlined word “obediently”.74. What do you think of the artist? (回答词数别超过8个单词)75. What is the best title for the passage? (回答词数别超过6个单词)第四部分·书面表达（共两节）第一节填空(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) 每空别超过三个单词Note-taking can be done by anyone who listens to a teacher, but there is a skill of effective note-taking that requires some efforts before and after class as well as during it!Before class, be sure to read through the notes of the previous week. And then you’ll know ahead of time that you haven’t really understood what was covered in that week’s lesson, and you can go into the ne w class with a basic understanding of what has been learned before. Readthrough the reading materials before class and make a list of anything you don’t understand so that you can raise these questions in class. During the class, focus on what t he teacher says. Don’t get distracted (分心) by classmates, or whatever is happening outside the window. You need to be clear about the teacher’s words in order to quicklyanalyze (分析) which of the materials you think is important. Develop your skills of shorthand. This will enable you to take notes properly and fast. After class, write up your notes into a clear form so that you can easily read them.

黑龙江省哈尔滨市第十一中学校2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The Four Most Exotic Black Sand Beaches in the World Papenoo Beach: Tahiti, French PolynesiaPopular with surfers, this remote black beach on Tahiti’s northern coast boasts some of the most impressive waves in the world. Here you will discover more breathtaking natural beauty of the island, with its green mountains and picturesque scenery. Not-to-be-missed sights include the spectacular waterfalls: Topatari, Puraha and Vaiharuru falls.Lovina Beach: IndonesiaA highlight of this beach destination is visiting Kalibukbuk, one of the coastal villages along Lovina Beach, and the Kalibukbuk Buddhist temple on the beach. There is also an abundance of incredible marine and underwater life, so diving is a popular relaxation, but the main draw for beachgoers is spotting the playful bottle nosed dolphins.Stokksnes Beach: IcelandOne of Iceland’s most dramatic landscapes is the mountain Vestrahorn on the Stokksnes peninsula in southeast Iceland. The magical setting here was featured in the Bollywood movie Dilwale. It’s a popular destination for photographers but surprisingly not a big tourist spot; this privately owned land charges a small fee to visit. You can visit the Stokksnes beach on a group Ring Road tour or a self-driving circuit of the country.Perissa Beach: Santorini, GreeceSituated in southeastern Santorini, this unique black beach boasts crystal clear waters and the rocky Mesa V ouno mountain. For more active pursuits beyond sunbathing and swimming, visitors can rent water sports equipment for other fun activities like diving. You can also hike to the top of Mesa V ouno to visit the ancient ruins of the city of Thera. 1．Which of the following landscapes is a must for tourists in Papenoo Beach?A．Waves.B．Valleys.C．Mountains.D．Waterfalls. 2．Which place best suits people who enjoy taking pictures?A．Papenoo Beach.B．Lovina Beach.C．Stokksnes Beach.D．Perissa Beach.3．What do Lovina Beach and Perissa Beach have in common?A．They are good places to hike.B．Visitors can go diving for relaxation.C．Both are rich in underwater life.D．Tourists can visit ancient coastal villages.Three cute brown bear cubs who got lost after getting separated from their mother gripped the hearts of netizens.The fuzzy cubs were spotted by Gelek Gyatso, an ecological protection officer, when he was patrolling a riverbed at an altitude of nearly 4, 500 meters in Qumarleb county in Qinghai province’s Yushu.The little cubs eagerly ran toward the ranger on the snow-covered riverbed, then stopped short at a safe distance to stare at him curiously. After realizing that the man was not their mother, the bear cubs turned around and ran along the river calling for mom.This was Gelek Gyatso’s first encounter with bear cubs separated from their mother. With his knowledge of wild animals, he drove the cubs towards an area near their cave in the hope of a safe reunion. Thankfully, later that day, other patrol officers found that the mother bear had reunited with her cubs and that the family was happy and healthy.This year marks Gelek Gyatso’s tenth year as an ecological protection officer. He patrols the area every day, diligently records the animals he sees, carefully checks on the vegetation, and helps clean up litter.Over the decade, Gelek Gyatso has witnessed great changes in the ecological environment of his hometown. There has been an increase in the number of wild animals, and everyone is participating in the protection of these species, making coexistence between humans and animals more harmonious.He also reminds people that if they encounter wild animals in the wild, they should keep their distance, not disturbing or feeding them, and that if they find an animal that needs to be rescued, they should call the fire or forest department in time.4．What happened to the three bear cubs?A．Losing track of the mother bear.B．Following Gelek with curiosity.C．Mistaking a man for their mother.D．Being trapped in the cold riverbed.5．Which of the following best describes Gelek?A．Ambitious.B．Romantic.C．Devoted.D．Innovative. 6．According to Gelek, what should people do to live in harmony with wildlife?A．Changing their living surroundings.B．Feeding and sheltering wild animals.C．Getting involved in saving endangered species.D．Seeking professional help to rescue those in need.7．What is the best title for the text?A．A project of wildlife conservationB．A journey of friendship connectionC．A knowledgeable ecological officerD．An encounter leading to a safe reunionFor 85 years, the Harvard Study of Adult Development has tracked an original group of 724 men and more than 1,300 of their male and female descendants (后代) over three generations, asking thousands of questions and taking hundreds of measurements to find out what really keeps people healthy and happy.Through all the years of studying these lives, one crucial factor stands out for the consistency and power of its bond to physical health, mental health and longevity: good relationships.In 2008, researchers telephoned the wives and husbands of Harvard Study couples in their 80s every night for eight nights. Researchers spoke to each partner separately and asked them a series of questions about their days.On days when these men and women spent more time in the company of others, they were happier. Like most older people, those in the Harvard Study experienced day-to-day rises and falls in their levels of physical pain and health difficulties. But researchers found that the people who were in more satisfying relationships were cushioned (缓冲) somewhat from these ups and downs of mood—their happiness did not decline as much on the days when they had more pain. Simply put, their happy marriages seemed to have a protective effect.Elizabeth Gillespie, a therapist of couples, stated that although most of us found that ourexperience of relationships might be hard, and at times, impossible, it is essential to our well-being.Today we live in much more complicated environments, so meeting our social needs presents different challenges. We might be sitting on a gold mine of vitality that we are not paying attention to, because it is hidden by the shiny appeal of smartphones or pushed to the side by work demands.8．What’s the purpose of the Harvard Study of Adult Development?A．To study their lives over three generations.B．To reveal the secret to health and well-being.C．To track the descendants of an original group.D．To study the relationship between health and happiness.9．How did the researchers carry out the study?A．By working with other researchers.B．By tracking specific groups of people.C．By helping participants with social difficulties.D．By comparing the results from different people.10．Why did the author mention the examples in Paragraph 4?A．To provide evidence for the bond of health and longevity.B．To introduce the concept of physical pain and health difficulties.C．To show the negative impact of unhappy marriages on older people’s mood.D．To support the positive impact of satisfying relationships on people’s lives. 11．According to Elizabeth Gillespie, what is essential to our well-being?A．Having good social connections.B．Declining pains and difficulties.C．Overcoming ups and downs of mood.D．Experiencing rises and falls of physical health.You may not realize that your brain is consuming energy almost all the time. Paying attention, decision-making, empathy, even meditation consume mental resources. You can’t think much at all-or laugh, or respond to danger, or dream about the future, or even remember where you put the car keys-without mental energy.Despite its essential status, mental energy is a missing factor in most accounts ofpsychic(心理的)operations. It’s not even clear what mental energy is. One model sees it as one part mood state, one part cognition, and one part motivation. There’s no agreed-upon measure of or method for assessing mental energy.Whatever mental energy turns out to be, one thing is clear: it’s something people want more of. Perhaps because we live in disquieting times that we struggle to make sense of even decisions about what to put in the garbage bring us face-to-face with existential threats-there are continuous demands on mental energy. Or maybe it’s just the price of having a big cerebral cortex(大脑皮层)in a time of information overload.There are known ways of maintaining mental energy. Most accessible, perhaps, is the careful use of whatever mental energy individuals already have. Habits help conserve mental energy. They obviate the need to make any number of decisions so as to maintain mental energy. Good habits are even better; they additionally prevent the need to expend energy on mopping up the damage done by bad habits.It’s also possible to generate mental energy from within by a technique known as mental contrasting. New York University psychologist Gabriele Oettingen developed mental contrasting as a way to use the energy necessary to turn goals into achievements. The technique requires imagining a future you want to attain-writing a book, say-and the best outcome of that desired goal-feelings of accomplishment and pride. The critical part is then avoiding pure fantasy by contrasting your wishes with the reality of the work necessary to attain them. The judgments people then make about how likely they are to attain the desired future are starting working, and the energy mobilization(能量调动)can be measured physically in tests of hand-grip strength(握力). Further,Oettingen finds，mental contrasting gives rise to a universal arousal state in which energy is transferrable to mental tasks wholly unrelated to the fantasy that birthed it.12．What do we know about mental energy?A．It’s clear that people desire more of mental energy.B．Most threats and struggles can be addressed with mental energy.C．It is a model with parts including mood state, cognition, and motivation.D．Most accounts of psychic operations describe mental energy as a main factor. 13．What does the underlined word “obviate” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Meet.B．Remove.C．Increase.D．Provide.14．How does mental contrasting help generate mental energy?A．By turning goals into achievements.B．By transferring your energy to mental tasks.C．By picturing your desired goal and its outcome.D．By fantasizing about your accomplishments.15．Which would be the best title for the text?A．The making of mental energy.B．The functions of mental energy.C．Habits, good keepers of mental energy.D．Mental contrasts, sources of mental energy.二、七选五Habits to live a healthier lifeAt a time when life expectancy in the U. S. has fallen and diet-related disease is a leading cause of death, it’s no wonder that Dan Buettner’s decades-long exploration of centenarians (百岁老人) is attracting lots of attention. He says they have unconsciously created a long-lived environment through their habit. 16 .●Change social media to make friendsThe best longevity secret is to manage your immediate social circle. 17 . If you’re happy and engaged, positive emotions can spread. If you aim to live a healthier life, your odds improve if those around you are committed too. So, try this principle of human behavior to help align (使协调) yourself with people who can serve as a sounding board to help you live with purpose.●Trade the cozy sofa for a garden18 . For those of you who don’t like the gym, you may be inspired by the way people in the long-lived zones put movement into their everyday routines. Plant a garden in your backyard. It pushes you to weed and water almost every day and that keeps you moving.● 19The nap (小睡) is an age-old tradition, of course. And though modern life has push ed itto near extinction, the most recent science shows that a 20-minute nap in the afternoon can make up for an hour of lost sleep and helps keep you sharp later in the day.On the whole, we’d be wise to stop and take notes. 20 : Good food, good sleep, good friends, plenty of movement and a sense of purpose are a recipe for living better.A．Take a nap in the afternoonB．Build movement into your dayC．Make yourself become an optimistD．Find people who can inspire youE．There’s no single change to create a culture of healthF．Scientific research confirms the centenarians’ way of lifeG．Here are my opinions on ways to change old habits for new ones三、完形填空When Kellie Barker welcomed her third child into the world, she noticed he behavedfamilies with autistic children.“Autism is a beautiful thing.

Ways of Being Healthy．CRecently，a 1935 letter in which Ernest Hemingway detailed his catch of a 500lb blue marlin（青枪鱼）, an adventure that is believed to have partly inspired his novel The Old Man and the Sea，has been sold for﹩28，000（£22，000）.The handwritten letter was sent by Hemingway on 8 May to the fishing editor of the Miami Herald，laying out in great detail how the author and his friend Henry Strater battled to keep sharks away from the marlin after catching it off the Bahamian island of Bimini． Nate D Sanders， the auction（拍卖） company which sold the letter，said it documented for the first time in Hemingway's own words not only the size of the marlin， but also the attack by sharks， reflecting the plot of the novel．The company added that Hemingway's account of the marlin catch differed from other anecdotes of it，one of which described Hemingway using a machine gun on the sharks，which is said to have attracted more sharks rather than frightened them away．The Old Man and the Sea was also inspired by an anecdote told by Hemingway's Cuban friend Carlos Gutierrez． In 1936， Hemingway wrote in a magazine that Carlos had told him about an old fisherman who caught a great marlin alone．Three years later，Hemingway told his editor Max Perkins that he was planning a short story about the old commercial fisherman who fought the swordfish all alone in his sailing boat. Instead, he ended up writing For Whom the Bell Tolls， not returning to the story about the old fisherman until January 1951． It won him the Pulitzer in 1953，and was specifically cited when he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1954．8.What does the underlined phrase "laying out" in the second paragraph mean？ ______A.

Carlos Gutierrez's story．C. Max Perkins' life experience．D. Nate D Sanders' description．11.Which is the correct order of time for the following facts in the passage？ ______①Hemingway wrote a letter to describe his adventure．②Hemingway caught a big blue marlin．③The letter was sold at auction．④The Old Man and The Sea won the Nobel Prize．A. ①③②④B. ②①④③C. ②④①③D. ②③①④DIn 2019，a big revolutionary technology shift will finally occur，which is called 5g． It is a once-in a-decade upgrade（升级）to our wireless systems that will start reaching mobile phone users in a matter of months. This new times will leap ahead of current wireless knownas 4g by offering mobile internet speeds that will let people download an entire 120-minute movie within a secondBut this is not only about faster smart phones，but also will affect many other kinds of devices， including industrial robots，security cameras，drones（无人机），automatic cars，video games，sports，shopping and traffic data．With 5g technology，a clearer and truer 3D images will be formed and it can be off-loaded to other machines wirelessly，freeing users to move and making it easier to develop goggles（目镜）the size of eyeglasses. People can point a smart phone camera to a football game and see both live video on the display and player statistics or other data. Moreover 5g powerful effects extend to remote medical surgery and other fields that increasingly rely on high-speed connections．Officials in the United States and China regard 5g networks as a heated competitive edge．It can help spread the use of artificial intelligence and other cutting-edge technologies．Meanwhile，to get the benefits of 5g，users will have to buy new phones，while carriers will need to install new communication services， which will create a huge future market. In order to occupy it first, the famous world wireless service providers such as AT&T, Verizon, Samsung, Huawei have already declared that they will enter 5g business and showed their 5g new smart phones．However, in the United States, Verizon and AT&T will offer their 5g service with first use of high frequencies known as millimeter waves that can pump data at high speeds, but their signals don't travel as far. Instead Sprint and T-Mobile plan to start with lower frequencies, whose result may be somewhat slower initial speed，but wider range，although they all claim that they have mastered 5g technology．Thus they only first target the areas with large population. So 5g's full benefit to all are not expected until the main US key carriers upgrade their key switching equipment, which may happen in late 2019 or early 2020.12.Which of the following is least likely to be affected directly by 5g technology？ ______A. Eating habits．B. Traffic management．C. Artificial intelligence．D. Remote medical operations．13.What does the underlined world "it" in the second paragraph refer to？ ______A. to use 5g technology freelyB. to get a clear 3D imagesC. to free users move wirelesslyD. to develop goggles the size of eyeglasses 14.Why did the world-famous wireless providers hurry to declare they would enter 5gbusiness？ ______A. To serve the people all over the world．B. To meet the need of the world market．C. To start the heated hi-tech competition．D. To occupy this large hi-tech market first．15.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the US 5g technology？ ______A.It is perfect enough to be put into use in the whole US at present．B. It cannot benefit all Americans before the key equipment is upgraded．C. It is too backward to be applied in any part of the US now．D. It will never be widely used all over the US in the future．第二节（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Margie’s grandfather once said that when he was a little boy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper. They turned the pages, which were yellow and crinkly (皱巴巴的), and it was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving the way they were supposed to — on a screen.“What’s it about?”“School.”Margie was scornful. “School? What’s there to write about school?” Margie was always fed up with school. The mechanical teacher had been giving her test after test in geography. So she said to Tommy, “Why would anyone write about school?”Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes, “Because it’s not our kind of school, stupid. This is the old kind of school that they had centuries ago.”She read the book over his shoulder for a while, then said, “Anyway, they had a teacher.”“Sure they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”“A man isn’t smart enough.” She added, “I wouldn’t want a strange man in my house to teach me.”Tommy screamed with laughter. “You don’t know much, Margie. They had a special building and all the kids of the same age went there, learning the same thing from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays.They weren’t even half-finished when Margie’s mother called, “Margie! School!” Margie looked up. “Not yet, Mamma.” “Now!” said Mrs. Jones.Actually the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular time.The large screen was lit up. “Today’s math lesson is on the addition of proper fractions (分数). Please insert yesterday’s homework in the proper slot (插槽).” Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about how the kids must have loved it in the old days. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. And the teachers were people. She was thinking about the fun they had. 4．What does the underlined word “scornful” in Para.5 mean?A．Interested.B．Amazed.C．Doubtful.D．Disrespectful.5．Where is Margie’s schoolroom?A．Inside her house.B．In a special building.C．On a large screen.D．Around her neighborhood.6．What is the similarity between the school in the book and the one Margie attended?A．Teachers of great wisdom.B．Classmates of the same age.C．Regular schooling hours.D．Advanced learning equipment. 7．Which of the following may Margie agree with?A．Doing math homework is more than funny.B．The school life in the old days is much more appealing.C．Mechanical teachers are more suitable in teaching for her.D．Reading on a screen is more convenient than reading a real book.History is written, read, told — but rarely ever is it smelled.Historians and scientists across Europe have now gotten together with perfumers(调香师)and museums for a unique project: to reveal what Europe smelled like between the 16th and early 20th centuries. A European street today may smell like coffee, fresh-baked bread and cigarettes. But what did it smell like hundreds of years ago? As part of this three-year-long project called “Odeuropa”, the researchers want to find all the old scents(气味)of Europe — and even recreate some of this ancient smellscape: from the dry tobacco scents to the smelly canals.To do this, they will first build artificial intelligence (AI) that will be trained to gothrough historical texts, written in seven different languages, for any descriptions of scents. The AI will also be trained to detect images of objects in the texts that might be scented. The team will then use this information to create an online encyclopedia(百科全书)of smells from Europe’s past.The encyclopedia will include the meaning of certain scents and will trace the stories behind scents, places and related practices, according to project leader Angela Lee. “This database will become a library for the smell heritage of Europe, enabling future generations to access and learn about the scented past.” The encyclopedia will also include descriptions of people for whom smell was important.The researchers will then work with chemists and perfume makers to recreate past smells and figure out how to display the smells in museums and other historical sites. With current technology, almost every scent can be produced. “The more difficult part of the project will be to find descriptions of scents, because people haven’t always talked or written about them,” Lee said.Scent plays a central role in our everyday life, even acting as a powerful time machine into our own past with its ability to activate long-forgotten memories. But it’s also a key tool in telling the stories of others. “Scent gives us access to the past in a much more direct and emotional way than language and images,” Lee said.8．Why did the researchers start the “Odeuropa” project?A．To rebuild a historical European street.B．To make perfumes of traditional scents.C．To find and recreate the smells of Europe.D．To reproduce the scented past of Europe.9．What will the AI do in the project?A．Collect smell-related data.B．Write interesting stories behind smells.C．Detect objects by smell.D．Describe smells in different languages.10．Which of the following is the biggest challenge the project faces?A．Scents of the past are hard to keep.B．Records of scents are rarely found.C．Technology to reproduce scents is poor.D．Display of smells in museums costs a lot.11．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The application of past scents.B．The effect of scents on memory.C．The role of scent in story-telling.D．The value of understanding scent.Scientists at MIT have managed to change ordinary spinach (菠菜) plants into natural sensors which can find chemicals used in bombs. The secret to giving spinach these special powers is nanotech (纳米技术), which is scientific area that deals with making or changing things that are extremely tiny.“Ordinary spinach plants can be found everywhere and easy to store; like other plants, they normally take in carbon dioxide gas,” the scientists say. “But actually they can sense small changes of soil and water potential and respond to them. If we tap into this point, there is a wealth of information to access.” That’s what the scientists use to power their tiny experiments.For this experiment, the scientists placed two different kinds of tiny nano-materials into spinach plants. To get them into the plants, the scientists put a liquid containing them on the bottom of the plant’s leaves. As part of its natural process, the spinach plant pulls water through its roots and into its leaves. If the water contains certain chemicals used in bombs, the tiny sensors in the leaves make the nano-tubes, which, along with the sensors, were placed into the spinach plant before by the scientists, produce a slightly special kind of light. By watching the plant constantly using a camera attached to a cheap computer, the scientists set up a system that can send a warning email if chemicals from explosives are found in the water.The computer the scientists used is about the size of a playing card. They say that in the future, their system could even use a cell phone with its camera changed slightly. Discovering chemicals used in bombs is just one of the many uses the researchers are exploring. They have used such plants to discover several other dangerous chemicals as well. From their point of view, there’s no doubt that in the future, such systems could give farmers specific information about the health of the land and water on their farms.12．Why do the scientists use plants to do the experiment?A．They are common in the daily life.B．They are environmentally responsive.C．They absorb much carbon dioxide gas.D．They are small in size and easy to store. 13．What’s the function of the carbon nano-tubes placed into spinach plants?A．To control the camera.B．To contain the liquid.C．To fix the tiny sensors.D．To give off plant light.14．What can we say about the application of the experiment?A．It’s diverse.B．It’s unexpected.C．It’s limited.D．It’s cheap. 15．What’s the suitable title for the text?A．Spinach Is Sensitive to Chemicals in BombsB．Spinach Sends Warning Emails Using NanotechC．Nanotech Helps Spinach Grov HealthilyD．Nanotech Protects Spinach from Danger二、七选五The age range between about 13 and 19 is an important time in an individual’s life.Taking on the right amount of responsibility and independence can push you towards becoming a successful teenager.First, participate in extra-curricular activities. Schools give students opportunities for staying active. Pick an activity that appeals to you such as athletics, academic clubs, or special-interest clubs. Extra-curricular activities build character through team work, time-management, and competition. Don't be too worried if you aren't very good at what you like, for the important thing is passion. 17Besides, volunteer. 18 Meanwhile, volunteering can teach you job-related skills such as responsibility or time-management. Some schools also reward the learning aspect of volunteer work with credit hours. If you are interested in college, volunteering makes you much more appealing during the application process.Third, use your summer for academic programs. Getting a head start at college could mean sacrificing your summer vacation. Various universities offer programs for future college students based on interests such as journalism, photography, art, sports, etc. 19 Research different programs and then figure out which one is the best choice for you. Checkthe requirements and deadlines. Avoid getting into trouble because of a simple mistake, and you will have a great time.Finally, know when to ask for help and advice. Being responsible and independent does not mean being alone. 20 So, seek advice from parents, older siblings, advisors at work, teachers, or someone whom you trust.
