AAlexis, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad’s car. She let her eyes lazily scan the landscape for wildlife. Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them. “Dad, there’s a deer there!” Alexis said. It was a male deer with sharp antlers (角) on each side of its head.As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the deer’s head was bent toward the g round. Then she heard a scream and saw an arm fly up near the deer’s head. Alexis realized the deer was attacking a woman. Sue, a 44-year-old mother, had been out for her morning run. The deer followed her and edged closer. “I knew I was in trouble.” Sue says. She went to pick up a stick for self-defense, and the deer charged. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue could feel blood flew down her leg. Within seconds, the deer had pushed her off the road.When Alexis and her father pulled up, the deer was throwing Sue like a doll. Alexis looked into the woman’s terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer. “I was kicking it to get its attention.’’ she says. Then her father, who had followed his daughter, pushed the deer away from the women.Alexis helped Sue into the car and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue’s injured leg. “We’re going to get you to a hospital.” Alexis said. Then she heard her father shout loudly. He had been knocked to the ground. Alexis took hold of a hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back. She beat the deer’s head and neck, but the blows didn’t scare it away. “I was losing faith.” she says. “A couple more s trikes. Alexis.” said her father. “You can do it.”Turning the hammer around, Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer’s neck with all her strength. When she opened her eyes, the deer was running away.Alexis got in the driver’s seat and sped toward the ne arest hospital. After Sue was treated, she tearfully thanked her rescuers. “You expect a teenage girl to get on the phone and call for help,” she says, “not to beat up a deer.”1.

Apart from me there are a few old ladies who have come to the court and a class of 14-15 year-olds with their teacher.9:05 Court starts. First case: Henry P.，47, divorced, charged with being drunk. He refused to leave a pub at closing time and caused a bit of damage when the police tried to arrest him. P. said he had had an argument with his boss and could not face going home to an empty flat.9:50 Mrs F., 72, shoplifting (店内偷窃). Apparently Mrs F. had stolen a frozen chicken, which she had hidden under her hat (At this the school children burst out laughing and even the judges have difficulty keeping a straight face). The chicken was so cold that she fell unconscious, otherwise she would probably not have been caught. Mrs F, in tears, says she had not eaten meat for three weeks. It turns out that, although she has the old - age pension, she does not know about other forms of support.10:30 Peter D., 19. D. stole, or rather “borrowed” a motorcycle, intending, he said, to give it back to the owner after trying it out.D.’s father is at sea and the mother is left to bring up fourchildren, of whom Peter is the eldest, by herself.11:00 Mrs A., 45, a doctor’s wife, president of a local ladies’ club, was caught leaving a fashion shop wearing two dresses, only one of which belonged to her. Admitting that she had wanted to steal the dress, she could not explain why.21. What did Henry P. do when he was caught?A. He damaged the pub.B. He attacked the police.C. He bothered other customers.D. He quarreled with his boss.22. How would the author feel about Mrs F.’s life?A. Active.B. Amusing.C. Pitiful.D. Ridiculous.23.

A few hours later, themoon is overhead but seems to have changed. The huge orange globe has become a small silver disk. What has happened? Why has the orange color disappeared? Why does the moon seem so much smaller and farther away now that it is overhead?The moon appears orange on the horizon because we view it through the dust of the atmosphere. The overhead moon does not really shrink as it moves away from the horizon. Our eyes inform us that the overhead moon is farther away. But in this position the moon is actually closer to our eyes than when it is near the horizon.The change in size is a trick our eyes and minds play on us. When the moon is low in the sky, we can compare its size with familiar objects. It is easy to see that the moon is much larger than trees or buildings, for example. When the moon is high in the sky, however, it is hard to compare it with objects on earth. Compared to the vastness of the sky, the moon seems small. There is another reason why the moon seems to shrink. We are used to staring at objects straight ahead of us. When an object is difficult to see, our eyes have to try to focus on it. When we move our heads back to look up, we will try hard again. Looking at something from an unaccustomed position can fool you intobelieving an object is smaller or farther away than it is. However, scientists do not yet understand completely why the moon seems to shrink as it rises in the sky.24. What makes us puzzled when the moon is high in the sky?A. It looks different.B. It becomes large.C. Its color disappears.D. Its shape changes.25. What really happens when the moon floats farther away from the horizon?A. It turns orange.B. It comes nearer.C. It goes farther.D. It gets through dust.26. What does the author intend to suggest by mentioning trees and buildings in Para. 3?A. They are low on earth.B. They are large objects.C. They can affect our judgment.D. They can attract our attention.27. What can we infer from the text?A. The size of the moon often changes.B. We do not see the moon as it really is.C. The moon is beginning to shrink much.D. The moon is in fact a huge orange globe.4.（8分）CThe sun was slipping down through the trees and it was time to go home. Time was running out. His mother would look at him and she would know. She always knew. A hot tear ran down his cheek. She trusted him. This was the first year she had left him alone for three hours between school and the time she got home from work. She had to work to buy his clothes and to pay for their food and for a place to live. He remembered the nice way she said, “You are a little man now, Joy.” It made him sad when his mother’s words came back to him. She trusted him. Remembering this, he felt as if someone had stuck a sharp stick into his side. Her trust in him was all he could think about now. It drove everything else from his mind. “She trusted me.” He kept saying to himself. “She trusted me.” This was most important. Next to this, the pipe and its magic power meant nothing.Joy looked at the long shadows coming toward him. He now knew what he had to do. And he was in a hurry to get it done. When he took the pipe, he left the store with slow unsure steps.Now his feet were quick, decisive, taking him straight back to the store like an arrow. He was out of breath when he reached the store.Mr. Dow was just inside the door. The big man smiled. Joy wished he had not. Somehow, a bad friendly smile made it more difficult for Joy to do what he wanted to do. Joy was lost for a moment. His feet felt heavy. Suddenly, blindly, he held out the pipe. His voice struggled to come out from deep inside of the painful chest.“Mr. Dow,” he said at last, “I didn’t mean to take it.”“Thanks, Joy.” Mr. Dow said as he gently took the pipe from the boy’s hand. “How about staying around and helping me close up the shop?”Joy felt Mr. Dow’s big hand on his shoulder. And Joy felt his shoulders had become a little broader and stronger.28. What kind of a life did Joy and his mother live?A. A poor life.B. A new life.C. A happy life.D.A modem life.29. Why did Joy feel like being hurt by something sharp?A. He felt sorry for his mother.B. He couldn’t help thefamily.C. He had run away from school.D. He disappointed his mother’s expectations.30. What do we know about Mr. Dow’s smile to Joy?A. It’s broad.B. It’s warm.C. It’s false.D. It’s secret.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. An Interesting PipeB. A Powerful SmileC. Unconditional LoveD. Magic Trust5.（8分）DAmericans recognize that there is a past on which the present rests. But they have not developed their sense of the depth of time as much as this has been done in the Middle East and South Asia. The Arab looks back two to six thousand years for his own origins. History is used as the basis for almost any modem action. The chances are that an Arab won’ start a talk or a speech or analyze a problem without first developing the historical aspects of his subject. The American assumes that time has depths but he seldom stresses its importance of it.The American never questions the fact that time should be planned and future events should be fitted into a schedule. He thinks that people should look forward to the future and not talk too much on the past. His future is not very far ahead of him. Results must be obtained in the foreseeable future — one or two years or, at the most, five or ten. Promises to meet deadlines and appointments are taken very seriously. There is real punishment for being late and for not keeping commitments in time. The American thinks it is natural to calculate the value of time. To fail to do so is unthinkable. The American calculates how much time is required to do everything. “I’ll be there in ten minutes.” “It will take six months to finish that job.” “I was in the Army for four and a half years.”The Americans, like so many other people, also use time as a link that chains events together. If one event occurs on the heels of another, we will certainly try to find a causal relationship between them. If A is seen around the area of B's murder shortly after the crime has been committed we automatically form a connection between A and B. However, events which are separated by too much time are difficult for us to connect in our minds. This makes it almost impossible for us as a nation to engage (从事) in long-range planning.32. How do Americans see past time according to the first paragraph?A. It’s valueless.B. It’s limited.C. It reflects today.D. It helps start a talk.33. What does the underlined phrase “to do so” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. To calculate the value of the past.B. To plan a schedule for future events.C. To figure out the importance of time.D. To meet deadlines and appointments.34. When will Americans chain two events together?A. When common evidence is found.B. When the two events happen one by one.C. When A is found near the scene of B’s crime.D. When one event happens long after another.35. What does the author mainly want to tell Americans to do?A. See time further.B. Make a long-range plan.C. Remember the past time.D. Keep their commitments.三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）6.（10分）In the villages of Mexico, as in some other parts of the world, shopping is a kind of game.

He wanted to help, but local volunteer organizations turned him away, saying he was too young. So he decided to find his own solution. For years, he had been gardening with his mother, and they often distributed their extra vegetables to the neighbors. "Why not give the produce to a soup kitchen? Then I thought, I'm good at gardening," says McKenna, now 16. "Why not plant a garden at school, so that kids in need could take food home?"McKenna persuaded his school to set aside space for a garden; then he asked the community for donations of seeds and equipment. Other students donated their time. Withinmonths, McKenna's garden was producing lettuces, tomatoes, cucumbers and squash for students and their families. Now, seven years later, McKenna's Giving Garden project has expanded to five area schools in addition to his own backyard garden, and he has provided organic produce, enough for 25,000 meals, to Austin families.For most of his gardening activities, McKenna wears the same T-shirt in different colors, with his personal motto on it: BE A GOOD HUMAN. To him, that means helping in any way you can, no matter what your age. "Even a smile might change someone's life," he says. "It lets them know that they are important. It can make their day."When COVID-19 hit the U.S. McKenna redoubled his efforts, cooking up to 100 meals to distribute to the hungry on the weekends. When social distancing meant that volunteers couldn't work on community garden plots, he started offering online classes and a gardening hotline so families could grow at home. While gardening is his core focus, McKenna says he is always looking for new ways to help the hungry.24、What caused Ian's decision to help the kids in his own way?A. Being rejected by volunteer groups.B. Being good at gardening.C. A soup kitchen's support.D. His mother's suggestions.25、What do we know about the Giving Garden project?A. It helps students only.B.

Where there is a will, there is a way.B. A small gesture makes a difference.C. One good turn deserves another.D. Love can break all the barriers.27、What is the best title of the passage?A. Ian McKenna, Growing a Food BankB. Ian Mckenna, an Experienced GardenerC. Giving Garden Project, an Impossible MissionD. Giving Garden Project, a Universal SolutionBritish shoppers buy 2.15 million tonnes of clothing and shoes annually, yet UK citizens have an estimated ￡30 billion worth of unused clothing gathering dust at the back of the wardrobe(衣柜). But new technology could see the end of that, with the clothes themselves giving owners a gentle reminder of their existence.“Smart clothes” could help us clear out our wardrobes by sending mess ages or tweeting us if they haven’t been worn for a good while. If these alerts are ignored, the clothes will get in touch with a clothing charity and ask to be reused, with an organization automatically sending out donation information. Theycould also be programmed to put themselves up for auction(拍卖) on eBay.Academics at Birmingham City University are developing the “connected wardrobe” to encourage more suitable clothes consumption. The concept sees clothes tagged (给……加标签) using washable contactless technology.Mark Brill, senior lecturer at Birmingham City University, said, “Think of the surprise when an owner suddenly receives bids for items that they didn’t know were in their wardrobe.” “The connected wardrobe is a practical, pleasant concept to encourage people to think about their clothing consumption(消费）.Finally, I hope it will encourage more appropriate fashion consumption,” he added. “Perhaps we can even move away from the idea of ‘ownership’ of clothing. When we’ve worn them enough, the items wi ll pass themselves on to their next keeper. ”It follows in the footsteps of the “Internet of Things” — a concept that sees ordinary household items connecting to the Internet in order to share information. From adjusting your alarm clock to monitoring the temperature of your home, the Internet is changing the way we live. Now, the “Internet of Clothes” will see that neglected clothes will tweet and t ext the owners “asking” to be worn depending on the weather and frequency of wear. Clothes will keep track of other information such as who owned them previously, as well as how much they originally cost, who made them and how much the worker was paid for them.28、What does the author say about “smart clothes”?A. They may be donated on eBay.B. They have gained in popularity.C. They give warnings if worn out.D. They may be recycled if long forgotten.29、How does Mark Brill find the “connected wardrobe”?A. It helps people buy cheaper clothes.B. It contributes to right consumption attitudes.C. It changes people’s shopping habits.D. It improves people’s consumer confidence.30、What is indicated in the last paragraph?A. Clothes can be a source of information.B. Weather affects the connected wardrobe.C. Clothes are sold online at a low price.D. The Internet is a platform to share items.31、What can be the best title of the passage?A. Smart clothes: A change of wardrobeB. Smart clothes: A replacement of traditional clothes.C. Smart clothes: A reminder of weather.D. Smart clothes: A recorder of life.When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’s aplant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbours react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to thebecomes lunch.In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happ ened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth. Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are w eak. There’s a whole lot going on.32、What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietlyD. It sends out certain chemicals.33、What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.34、Scientists find from their studies that plants can ________.A. predict natural disastersB. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionallyD. help their neighbors when necessary35、What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing faster than ever.B. People have stronger senses than beforeC. The world is more complex than it seemsD. People in Darwin’s time were imaginative.三、七选五36、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。

江苏省重点高级中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月考试英语试卷（含答案）江苏省南菁高级中学高二英语10月考试卷I 阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共37.5分）ADubai's Museum of the Future, named as one of the 14 most beautiful museums on the planet in a list by National Geographic magazine this July, opened in February 2023. It promises visitors an immersive (沉浸式的) experience that uses technology to represent art and encourages guests to imagine what the future could be like.What are the exhibitions insideFive of the seven floors are main exhibition spaces, each designed to look like a futuristic film set. The museum takes visitors on a journey to the year 2071 and creates scenes of what the future could be like in topics such as outer space resource development, ecosystems and bioengineering, health, wellness and spirituality.How to get ticketsEntry to the museum costs Dh150, but is free for pre-school children, persons with disabilities and citizens aged 60 and over. Half price for students.The tickets are on sale on the museum's website www.motf.ae.General rules of the museum● Visitors are allowed to take photos and videos for personal use, except in the exhibitions that are labeled as the “special exhibition galleries”. Flash photography is not allowed.● Selfie (自拍) sticks are not permitted.● Guests can bring their own food that can be eaten in garden areas. No food or drink is allowed in any exhibition.● There are restrooms on each floor of the museum.● Free Wi-Fi is available.1. Which topic is covered in the exhibitions inside the museumA. Magazines.B. Film.C. Travelling.D. Fitness.2. How much should a young couple with a primary school kid pay for their ticketsA. Dh150.B. Dh300.C. Dh375.D.Dh450.3. What is forbidden in the museumA. Accessing the Internet of the museum.B. Having some bread in the garden areas.C. Taking selfies in the special exhibition galleriesD. Videoing the regular exhibition to share with friends.BThey talk about the straw that broke the camel’s back, but really it should be the password that wiped out my memory bank.I was going along fine with instant recall of my bank PIN (密码)，my mobile phone number and the date of my cousin's birthday before I downloaded a gas station payment app for its new customer discount. It asked me to create a password. When I typed in “gas 1”, it was rejected for not being complex enough. I tried again: “IHateHearlessOilCompanies@”. But that was too long and didn’t include “at least one number”. But here is the thing: as soon as I added the fresh password into my memory, I instantly forgot all the others. My brain had hit its limit for passwords. I now know nothing.I had entered some passwords in a notebook. Of course, I didn't write down the actual passwords, in case it fell into the wrong hands. Instead, I masked them in a way that only a family member could figure them out. For example, I combined my bank PIN with our postal code, then added it to a list of phone numbers. It would fool even Albert Einstein.Maybe we need a system like the one we use to remember people’s names. You know, you form an association between a person's characteristics and their name by whispering “Skinny George, Skinny George” in heart after meeting them. The risk is that, upon seeing him, you’ll burst out the phrase. “Skinny George” might not mind, but it's possible “Boring Betty” will. As for remembering passwords as you change them, you could simply use the first and last letters of your favorite singer's greatest hits, together with the year of their release.Maybe I’ll try that one out--but only after describing the system in the notebook. Then I'll hide it in a place so secret that I’ll never remember where it is.4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphsA. He fell for a marketing trick.B. He was driven mad by passwords.C. He had a serious memory disorder.D. He was rejected by the gas station.5. By mentioning Albert Einstein in paragraph 3, the author intends to ______.A. show how secure his passwords wereB. challenge the intelligence of scientistsC. prove the uselessness of his passwordsD. promote a more scientific password system6. What is the author’s purpose in writing the textA. To encourage readers to use password notebooks.B. To recommend a password-remembering method.C. To complain about the trouble caused by passwords.D. To point out the importance of using complex passwords.7. What is the tone of the textA. Inspiring.B. Indifferent.C. Humorous.D. Serious.CNo one likes interruption. We are born to seek balance and order. No matter what it is that you are doing, being interrupted involves a forceful stop midway and then having to re-enter your previous state, sometimes with great difficulty.Popular belief has it that interruption breaks the flow of your thinking and affects productivity negatively, and so it is advisable that you have an uninterrupted session of intensive work before your next break. However, a Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, might tell you otherwise.The connection between interruption and memory came to her attention when she was dining in a restaurant. She noticed how the waitresses had an amazing memory of the detailed orders yet to be paid for, but scarce memory of the orders that were already completed.Back in her laboratory, she conducted studies in which subjects were required to complete various puzzles. Some of the subjects were interrupted during the tasks. All the subjects were then asked to describe what tasks they had done. It turns out that adults remembered the interrupted tasks 90% better than the completed tasks, and that children were even more likely to recall the uncompleted tasks. In other words, uncompleted tasks will stay on your mind until you finish them!In comparison to tasks that were already finished and ones that we haven’t even started, half-done projects are given the priority in themental to-do list our brains sketch out for us. Zeigarnik described this finding in her doctoral thesis (论文) in the late 1920s, which was later called Zeigarnik effect.One possible explanation is that with interrupted tasks, we are desperate for their closure to reclaim a sense of balance. Finishing them also means that we can finally clear up the mental backlog (积压的工作) and give the space to more upcoming tasks.Zeigarnik’s effect can be found everywhere, especially used in media and advertising. Have you ever wondered why cliffhangers work so well or why you just can’t get yourself to stop watching that series on Netflix Ernest Hemingway once said about writing a novel, “It is the wait until the next day that is hard to get through.” So next time, when you are interrupted, appreciate it and take advantage of it to promote your productivity.What is a common practice to finish a taskA. Working in a focused period.B. Working with occasional breaks.C. Working with a stop midway.D. Working in an interrupted session. What is the finding of the Zeigarnik’s experimentA. Interruption recalls details.B. Interruption betters memory.C. Interruption disturbs balance.D. Interruption reduces productivity.10. Which of the following is an example of the application of Zeigarnik’s effectA. Fashion shows.B. Online news.C. Talk shows.D. TV series.11.What is the possible reason behind Zeigarnik’s effectA. The desire for balance.B. The physical backlog.C. The outside pressure.D. The upcoming tasks.DMosquitoes carry malaria (疟疾), which kills thousands of people each year. Now some researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into partners in the fight against the disease. For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling mosquito populations. “But that approach is temporary,” says Anthony James, a professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, “Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound.”Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria.To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It’s passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. “If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease,” he says. But makingmosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR. They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria, engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host. James’ team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be conducted on an island or in another isolated location.But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists. “There’s no need to engineer a mosquito,” says Dana Perls, senior program manager for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗) against the disease. “Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can’t be recalled once it’s released into the wild ” she asks.What can we know from the second and third paragraphsMosquitoes reproduce quickly.Mosquitoes depart from malaria.Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.Mosquitoes’ populations are under control.According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria pathogenMice. B. Parasites. C. Mosquitoes. D. Gene-edited mosquitoes. What is environmentalists’ attitude toward this new approach Tolerant. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Disapproving.What is the best title for the textLimiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito PopulationsControlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes’ genesCuring Malaria with Gene-edited MosquitoesPreventing Malaria with a new vaccineII 七选五（每小题2.5分，共12.5分）Does your cat or dog suddenly get a burst of energy and perform athletic features around the house Welcome to the world of zoomies—intense periods of high-energy activity including running, jumping and rolling. You might see post-bath zoomies, midnight zoomies and out of-nowhere zoomies. They have a lot in common with play. 16 If the zoomies are occurring as part of your animal’s regular play routine, this implies your animal is enjoying themselves. We don't yet know if zoomies are more likely to occur at certain times of the day, or more in some than others. 17Zoomies are mentioned a lot, but there is also little scientific research onwhat causes them, or how often they occur. Yet some conclusions can be drawn from experience. 18 In dogs, this is commonly a play bow- where the dog appears to “bow” to another to signal it is eager to play. In cats, an invitation may include repeatedly rolling over. If this is the case, your animal is likely experiencing excitement and a desire to interact with you.19 Context is key. You should consult with your vet (兽医) if your dog or cat is displaying the behaviour (in particular, circling) for too long. It might be a sign of a repetitive behaviour disorder. If you struggle to distract or stop the behaviour, or if it is resulting in injuries, seek professional assistance.Even if you don't get the call of the zoomies yourself, take a moment to enjoy and even join your dog or cat in having fun. 20A. Sometimes we all need to run wild.B. This makes zoomies a whole load of fun.C. It is our duty to figure out what they want exactly.D. Nothing is more annoying than a midnight zoomie.E. However, we do consider them evidence of a pretty good mood.F. Sometimes, however, zoomies may be a sign of a medical condition.G. In dogs and cat, zoomies can include an invitation for others to join.III 完形填空（每小题1分，共15分）Rebecka Peterson, a high school math teacher, is the nation’s 2023Teacher of the Year.

Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and build houses. The adults teach them these skills.There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours, some of the teenagers learn photo taking or painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time.When people live together, rules are necessary. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen?

But that is not to say everyone spends the same amount (量) of time or effort on making their places tidy. A new survey by CIF-experts on making cleaning jobs easier shows that when it comes to washing windows or cleaning the oven (炉), where you live in the UK may show how much effort you put into the job.BATHROOM25% of men have never cleaned the toilet, but those in Wales are the worst. Nearly four in ten Welsh men said They never cleaned anywhere in the house. Hate cleaning the shower head? You are not alone - a quarter of a million British people say the same. 20% of Scottish people regard window-cleaning as their most hated job.KITCHEN36% of people in the southeast say cleaning the cooker is their hated task. 68% of those in the northeast spend more than six hours a week cleaning their homes, especially the kitchen. In sharp contrast (强烈的对比) to that, 49% of Welsh people put their hands up to cleaning for under an hour.BEDROOM18% believe cleamng starts here: the percentage of women who clean wearing their dressing gowns (a kind of clothes). 51% of women in the northwest may be staying in bed and giving their husbands a cuddle (拥抱) as a" thank you" for helping them clean. In other places, there are far fewer helpful men.LIVINGROOM32% of women in the northeast tum up the CD player to help make the cleaning more fun.

One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful(有压力的) conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted byothers in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support — money aid, material resources, and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.40．Interpersonal relationships are important because they can _______.A．make people live more easily B．smooth away daily problemsC．deal with life changes D．cure types of illnesses41．The researches show that people's physical and mental health _______.A．lies in the social medical care systems which support themB．has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersC．depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD．is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes42．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “cushions” ?A．takes place of B．makes up ofC．lessens the effect of D．gets rid of43．What is the subject discussed in the text?A．Interpersonal relationships. B．Kinds of social support.C．Ways to deal with stress. D．Effects of stressful conditions.CSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he’s really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you’re saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may wal k away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life.44. Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.A. for you to make more and more new friendsB. to begin your business talksC. to get the conversation going smoothlyD. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others45. After having asked somebody a question, it’ll be polite of you to _______.A. make clear what kind of person he isB. listen to his reply attentivelyC. wait quietly and patiently for his answerD. go on asking him more questions46. Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _______.A. are good at making any topic interestingB. never talk too much or too littleC. always speak in a gentle wayD. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk47. If you really take delight in meeting someone again, _______.A. you may take him as your lifelong trustworthy friendB. it seems necessary for you to let him know itC. it’s proper for you to give him a second handshakeD. it’ll be helpful for you to have further understanding of himDI grew up in a small town. My father raised chickens and ran a construction company. I was barely 10 years old when my dad gave me the responsibility (责任) of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the stable. He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace, I washed dishes and cooked from 4: 00 pm to 9: 00 pm and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning. It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook. I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged. One night, a woman executive (懂事) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call — Warner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal. Soon after, I released my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies. My best efforts had gone into every job I’ve ever held. It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man. Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride.I still feel that way today, even though I have become a well-known singer.48. Why was the writer once known as the singing cook?A. Because he was a cook at a country-music club.B. Because he sang for guests while he worked as a cook.C. Because he often sang while cooking.D. Because he liked singing better than cooking.49. Who first recognized his talents and helped make his career successful?A. Wamer Brothers.B. His manager.C. His father.D. A businesswoman.50. What made the writer proud of himself?A. His ability to live independently.B. His sense of responsibility in whatever he did.C. His courage in the face of rejections.D. His hard work in his early days.杭西高10月高二英语答卷IV 短文改错（10分）文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。
