2023-2024学年重庆市巴蜀中学高二下学期第一次月考英语试题Enveloped by history, style and culture, the City of Light has more than enough to draw visitors all year around. But there are certain times of year when a trip to Paris can be extra-special.Paris Fashion WeekWhen: Men June/July; women March and September/OctoberIn 1943 the world’s first “fashion week” took place in New York.

Today Paris can claim to be the world’s style capital, with people pouring to its annual fashion weeks. Wear your best dress around the Tuileries Garden and a street-style photographer may even stop you for a shot.Music FestivalWhen: JuneThe streets of Paris come alive with the sound of music every June as free parties and concerts ring throughout the city. The Arab World Institute, the Louvre and Place Denfert-Rochereau are among the best party spots-though we recommend simply wandering. Expect surprises around every corner. Bastille DayWhen: JulyOn July 14 France marks the storming of the Bastille prison — a turning point in the French Revolution. In the morning crowds gather to watch a military parade along the Champs Elysees. Come evening, up to a million people gather as fireworks are set off from the base of the Eiffel Tower. Advantageous position? The top of the Belville Park. Get down early and bring a picnic chair.Grape Harvest FestivalWhen: OctoberYou may have dropped by the Montmartre Museum. But what about the private grape plantation aro und the back of Paris’s hilliest neighborhood? Every year locals come together to celebrate the distinctive grape wine produced here. There’s a charity wine sale, dance parties and, of course, plenty of tasting.1. What was the purpose of the world’s first“fashion week” in New York?A．To promote American fashion designers.

Whole blood breaks down quickly, and there were no methods at the time for safely preserving it. As a result, hospitals often did not have the appropriate blood type when patients needed it. Charles Drew, a Black surgeon and researcher, helped solve this monumental problem for medicine, earning him the title “Father of the Blood Bank.”In 1938, while obtaining hi s doctorate in medicine, Drew became a fellow at Columbia University’s Presbyterian Hospital in New York. He studied the storage and distribution of blood, including the separation of its components, and applied his findings to an experimental blood bank at the hospital.As Drew was finishing his degree at Columbia, World War II was erupting in Europe. Great Britain was asking the United States for desperately needed plasma (血浆) to help victims. Given his expertise, Drew was selected to be the medical director for the Blood for Britain campaign. Using Presbyterian Hospital’s blood bank as a model, Drew established uniform procedures and standards for collecting blood and processing blood plasma from nine New York hospitals. The five-month campaign collected donations from 15,000 Americans and was considered a success. His discoveries and his leadership saved countless lives.With the increasing likelihood that the nation would be drawn into war, the United States wanted to capitalize on what Drew had learned from the campaign. He was appointed as the assistant director of a three-month pilot program to mass-produce dried plasma in New York, which became the model for the first Red Cross blood bank. His innovations for this program included mobile blood donation stations, later called bloodmobiles.4. What problem did hospitals face in the late 1930s regarding blood donations?A．The shortage of blood donors. B．The inability to preserve blood.C．The challenge of blood infection. D．The failure to identify blood types.5. How did Drew contribute to the Blood for Britain campaign?A．He gathered different standards for the blood collection.B．He worked on the bloodmobiles for easy access to donors.C．He helped send life-saving drugs overseas to aid in the war.D．He organized the collection and processing of blood plasma.6. Which of the following best describes the three-month pilot program?A．Groundbreaking. B．Unpredictable. C．Economical. D．Controversial.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A．The life of Dr. Charles Drew. B．The inventor of the Blood Bank.C．A Savior of Lives during Wartime. D．A Pioneer in Blood Transportation.Her face is framed by wavy brown hair extensions, her filled lips pursed towards the viewer. It could be a description of an Instagram post, but the touched-up (修改过的) beauty is Diana Cecil, an English noblewoman who belongs to a powerful family at the Jacobean court. Experts at English Heritage have discovered that her portrait had been altered by restorers to enhance certain features, suggesting that our modern beauty standards might not be so modern after all.The great-grand-daughter of William Cecil, Lord Burghley, one of Elizabeth I’s closest advisers, Diana was considered one of the great beauties of her age. Yet it seems a later artist had other ideas.A restorer, probably in the 19th century, worked on the painting after it was damaged from being rolled sideways. It seems they also took the opportunity to alter the noblewoman’s face, enlarging her lips and lowering her hairline to reduce the size of her forehead.Now, following careful conservation work, Cecil’s original appearance has been restored, with the full-length portrait-painted by Cornelius Johnson when Cecil was about 31. The conservation team discovered the changes made to the Johnson painting after removing a yellowing layer of oily liquid that had covered its original, more vivid colors. They also surprisedly found the artist’s signature, and a date that had been signed in the portrait’s curtain suggesti ng it was finished in1634 and not 1638 as previously thought.According to Alice Tate-Harte, a conservator at English Heritage, it was not uncommon for people to ‘sweeten’ old paintings in the 19th and early 20th centuries. ”Conservation wasn’t a professi on, they weren’t working in institutions with salaries,” she said. “They were artist restorers and they had a bit more flexibility to prettify and beautify, whereas we have a lot more ethics today. we must keep our retouching to a minimum. I hope I’ve done Diana justice by removing those additions and presenting her natural face to the world.”8. What does the discovery of experts at English Heritage suggest?A．Prettiness is in the eyes of the viewer. B．Every great artist was once an amateur.C．Past norms may repeat themselves at present. D．Beauty souls shine brighter than appearances.9. What do we know about the original portrait of Diana Cecil?A．The original beauty failed to entertain the restorer B．The portrait was in fact painted for William Cecil.C．The painter intended to hide the beauty of Diana. D．The age of Diana was exposed by her hairline.10. Which of the following is an unexpected finding from the conservation work?A．The addition of the bright color. B．The portrait’s date of completion.C．The removal of the artist’s signature.D．The extent of damage to the painting.11. What does Alice think is the duty of art conservation?A．It means an artistic way of living. B．It depends on artists’ preference.C．It requires ethical considerations. D．It represents the fashion of time.When middle school math teachers completed an online professional development (PD) program that uses artificial intelligence to improve their math knowledge and teaching skills, their students’ math performance improved.This online professional development program relies on a virtual facilitator to present problems and provide feedback, aiming to enhance teachers’ mastery of knowledge and skills required. It covers why mathematical rules and procedures work and focuses on helping students employ instructional tools and strategies to overcome common struggles.An experiment was conducted in which 53 middle school math teachers were randomly assigned to either this Al-based professional development or no additional training. On average, teachers spent 11 hours to complete the program. We then gave 1,727 of their students a math test. While students of these two groups of teachers started off with no difference in their math performance, the students taught by teachers who completed the program increased their mathematics performance by 0.18 points on average. This is a statistically significant gain that is equal to the average math performance difference between sixth and seventh graders in the study.Teachers often have limited access to high-quality PD programs to improve their knowledge and teaching skills. Time conflicts or living in rural areas that are far from in-person professional development programs can prevent teachers from receiving the support they need. Additionally, many existing in-person professional development programs for teachers have little impact on student achievement. AI-based PD programs include opportunities for teachers to observe teaching practices. Teachers also receive real-time support from the program facilitators. The Al-supported virtual facilitator acting as a human instructor gives teachers authentic teaching activities to work on, asks questions and provides real-time feedback and guidance.Advancements in AI technologies will allow researchers to develop more interactive, personalized learning environments for teachers. More importantly, AI-based PD programs can collect rich, real-time interaction data, which help make programs more effective. Despite billions of dollars being spent each year on professional development for teachers, research suggests that how teachers learn through professional development is not yet well understood.12. What was the goal of the online professional development program?A．To create widely accessible methods B．To improve teachers’ teaching skills.C．To solve students’ common problems.D．To analyze students’ math performance. 13. How did the students taught by the teachers of the AI-based PD program perform?A．They exhibited statistically significant improvement.B．They performed even better than the seventh graders.C．They solved the math problem faster than the average.D．They started with lower performance but ended higher.14. How does the author highlight AI-based PD programs in paragraph 4?A．By listing current shortcomings. B．By clarifying essential concepts.C．By providing theoretical models. D．By comparing different trainings.15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．There is a demand for larger investments in professional development.B．AI technologies have helped us figure out how teachers learn in trainings.C．The expected benefits of teacher training programs have yet to be realized.D．It is a must for teachers to complete the professional development programs.JOMO refers to the “joy of missing out” — in short, unplugging from all media, practicing self-care, reconnecting to the present moment, and learning to appreciate the inner peace of being alone. JOMO is especially important for digital natives. 16 They have grown up in a world where social media is an essential part of their lives. Unplugging (拔掉电源插头) from the devices can help by giving us a break from the cruel social comparison that may be at the root of a lot of the anxiety. The following strategies can help you find joy in missing out.Make a list of activities you really enjoy doing.Post it in an accessible place so that at a moment’s notice, you’ve got a reminder of activities that bring you joy. 17Take regular tech breaks.A lot of FOMO (fear of missing out) is generated by scrolling through social media and the resulting social comparisons that inevitably happen. 18 Ground yourself in the present moment.Invest in offline connections with others.This can include family, partners, friends, and neighbors. 19 A brief on-site activity is a better way to build meaningful relationships than investing untold nights in connecting with relative strangers online.20This is often the most difficult thing to do for those with demanding fast-pa ced lives, but it’s essential to stay well and to take care of ourselves. It might be a solo nature walk, a warm bath, meditation, or soothing music — whatever makes you feel more comfortable in your own skin.Mike Huddleston had flown from Maryland to San Francisco and needed to get to a rental car agency.

Cambodians about the importance of bird species and the effect they have on nature.H said，"The biggest issue is the damage to habitats and poaching".Besides that，it is due to the demand from the rich

culture."Education is very limited，" he said. "And in terms of legal enforcement，only one organization is standing out，and that is the Wildlife Alliance."

"It should be everyone."（1）What problem did Suy meet in his photography work？A.Cambodians have a poor knowledge of protecting wildlife.B.Cambodians are lacking their culture of hunting.C.Cambodians like major campaigns on hunting wildlife.D.Cambodians have limited education about hunting.（2）How do the rich find wild meat in Cambodia？A.It contains high nutrition.B.It is free of chemicals.C.It tastes delicious and fresh.D.It is a symbol of social positions.（3）What is the main factor in leading to the decrease in wild animals Chantha thinks ？A.The climate change.B.The wild meat trade.C.The damage to wildlife habitats.D.The still-not-prohibited hunting.（4）What is the main idea of the text？A.A Cambodian is teaching the hunting culture.B.A photographer has a good knowledge of wildlife.C.A photographer is struggling with poachers.D.A Cambodian photographer urges to protect wildlife.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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

The artist accepted his request.The young man asked, “How can you produce so many beautif ul paintings and achieve your fame?”The artist said, “It seems that you have been thinking of becomi ng famous every day.”The young man nodded, “Yes. I have been dreaming of being a person as notable(著名的) as you. Every minute I am thinking of how to become reputa ble(著名的). I don’t know when I can achieve my fame.”The artist told him, “Don’t worry, young man, If you want to be a famous man this way, you will have to wait until you die!”“Why should I?” the young man was puzzled.The artist said, “What your dream is actually a high building. Yo u never think of how to build it with bricks. Thus the building will never come into reality. However, your story can serve as a mir ror. People will remember you because of your idleness(闲散，无聊) and laziness. They will often speak of your name while they give warnings to their children. Aren’t you a notorious(声名狼藉) person by then?”51. The man asked the artist to tell him ______________.A. how to paint so many pictures.B. how to become famousC. how he became a noblemanD. how to become an artist.52. After hearing his talk, the young man was puzzled because the artist told him ___________.A. he would die after he was famousB. he would be famous before he diedC. he would die before he was famousD. he would never be famous53.. The man didn’t achieve his fame because ____________.A. his wish was too highB. he was short of hardworking spiritC. he didn’t learn from othersD. he was too stupid54. The story mainly tells us ____________.A. a person needs high spiritB. one shouldn’t dream of becoming famousC. only by hard work can one’s wish come into realityD. one person sholdn’t be idle and lazy55. What does the artist’s words implied?A. The young man will surely become famous after he dies.B. The young man’s dream will never come true.C. Being notorious is the same as being famous.D. The young man will be set as a good example.BHow often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and, old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the o ne who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his tim e in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after a nd loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What’s more, life is always giving new things to the ch ild——things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free t o do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being punished for what he has wrongly done. When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, b ut has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he us ed to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, how ever, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his o wn position in society.56．According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that .A．life for a child is fairly easyB．a child is always loved whatever he doesC．if much is given to a child, he must do something in return D．only children are interested in life57．The main idea of the passage is that .A．life is not enjoyable since each age has some painsB．young men can have the greatest happiness if they work ha rdC．childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life D．one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age inhis life58．The paragraph following this passage will most probably di scuss .A．examples of successful young menB．how to build up one’s position in societyC．joys and pains of old peopleD．what to do when one has problems in lifeCIn the today, a large group of people want a college education. However, everyone is not able to attend a four-year college. Many four-year colleges are already too crowed. To give more people a ch ance to get a college education, some cities and towns have bu ilt junior colleges.The junior college offers a two-year courses of study in a wide range（范围）of subjects. It prepares some young people to go on to a four-year college. It trains others for jobs in business, government, o r industry.Because junior colleges are built in cities, they can serve many people who live in a large community. Many students can not afford to go to a four-year college. But they can save enough to go to a junior college . The entrance fee at a junior college is low. Students can also save money by living at home.A junior college admits some high school graduates who would not be accepted at other schools. The four-year college turns down students whose high school grades are low. The junior college will often admit a student who might do well in taking a two-year course.One of the goals of our country is to educate as many people a s possible. The junior college is a school meant to serve many people. It puts a college education within the reach of a great n umber of people. Without these schools, many people would no t be able to continue their education past high school.59．The main idea of paragraph One is that junior colleges .A．offer two-year courses B．are as good as four-year collegesC．are badly needed D．are too crowed 60．According to the passage, junior colleges .A．admit those whose high school grades are not very low B．can admit more students than four-year collegesC．offer very limited subjectsD．only train students for jobs in business61．It is known the passage that .A．all high school graduates can go to collegesB．junior colleges are built in cities while four-year colleges are in the countryC．junior colleges are replacing four-year collegeD．junior college help to make college education popular D（略）E（略）高二年级英语第一月考参考答案第一卷1-----5ACBAC 6-----10BADCD 11----15CBDCB 16----20DCCAC 21--25----- ADDBD 2 6------30 BAACA 31-------35DACBD 36-----40DBCAB 41---45BCBCA 46-----50ABDBC 51---55DACBA 56---60DCCBD第二卷61．Kind,strong and funny 62.To play “Amazing Grace” f or him.63. \The united states. 64.Because it was his wish.\To me et his wish.65.Because she thinks they both matters.改错66.third前加the 67.the other floors 68.living\who lived 69.immmediately 70.built 71.去掉up 72. them-- it 73.from—into 74. when---how 75. cause—caused范文How to be popularMany of us wish to be popular with others, but not all can ac hieve this goals,Here are two steps to help you.The first step is to improve our appearance.

Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include." I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600,the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增强的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you.“As f ar as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for . " We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things," he added, "and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars. "9to5 Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones."It's just like smartphones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to lo ok at their smartphones, and it's unnatural," he said. “There’s going to be improvements to that and this step there.”60.

She attended the government school near her home until she was 18. At that time, some doctors and nurses from Yugoslavia were working in India, and they often wrote to the school about their work. She decided to join them one day.When she finished school, she went first to Britain. Then a year later she went to India, where she began to train to be a teacher. After training, she was sent to Calcutta, where she taught geography at a school and soon after became headmistress.However, although she loved teaching, in 1949, Mother Teresa left the school and went to work in the poor parts of Calcutta. Later she was trained to become a nurse in Patna, and then began her work helping the poor and comforting（安慰）the dying in the streets of the city. Slowly, others came to help her, and her work spread to other parts of India.Mother Teresa is now a well-known person. Many photos have been taken of as she travels the world to open new schools and hospitals in poor countries. In 1979, she was given the Nobel Peace Prize for the lifetime of love and service she has given to the poor.64.

Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains(平原).Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables(绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.68. How is bamboo like grass?A. It is thin and easy to cut.B. It grows quickly after its cut shortC. It grows everywhe re.D. It is short and green.69. The sentence “while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.” means “Some other bamboo plants may grow to be very _______.”A. shortB. thickC. strongD. tall70. From the text we know ______.A. most people call bamboo plant treesB. a bamboo plant may grow 4.5 meters in three daysC. the bamboo plant changes its colors when it growsD. a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago71. Which of the following is NOT true?A. There are many different kinds of bamboo with different colors.B. Cables made of bam boo can last for over a thousand years.C. Bamboo can be used for buildings, bridges and watering projects (工程).D. Bamboo plants are able to grow well in any part of the world.EOne of the keys to being successful in what you do is persistence（坚持）. Once you have determined exactly what you want to achieve, you must take massive action on a constant basis in order to succeed.One of the things you'll notice on your journey towards your goal is roadblocks. That is, you will come across obstacles( 障碍 ) that seem to jump out of nowhere in an attempt to discourage your progress. Actually, they are a part of life. Everyone would have every success that they ever wanted if there were no obstacles. Your job is to be persistent and work through obstacles. If you find little or no obstacles along the way, you are not really challenging yourself. And when you do reach your goal, you won’t exp erience the feeling of "sweet success". Make your goal a challenging one!If you take the time to study a successful person, you will learn that the vast majority of them have had more “failures” than they have had “successes”. This is because successful people are persistent; the more they stumble（摔倒）, the more they get right back up and try again. On the other hand, people who don’t get back up and try again never reach success. For example, Walt Disney was turned down 302 times before he got financing for his dream of creating the "Happiest P lace on Earth". Today, due to his persistence, millions of people have shared "the joy of Disney". Colonel Sanders spent two years driving across the United States looking for restaurants to buy his chicken recipe. He was turned down 1,009 times! How successful is Kentucky Fried Chicken today!Having known these facts, keep in mind that you must constantly reevaluate（再评估）your circumstances and the approach you are using to reach your goal. There is no sense in being persistent at something that you are doing incorrectly! Sometimes you have to modify your approach along the way. Every time you do something you learn from it, and therefore find a better way to do it the next time.Today is the day to begin your journey, using consistency and persistency, towards tomorrow's successes!72 The author seems to believe that .A. “sweet succes s” comes along with obstaclesB. we will reach our goal by challenging ourselvesC. the more obstacles we have, the better we feelD. challenges we come across are rewarding73 The reason why persistent people are successful is that .A. they experience a lot of failuresB. they are born to be very stubbornC. they don’t give up in face of failureD. they have great ambitions in mind74 Why did Colonel Sanders spend two years driving across the United States?A. To taste different foods and find special recipes.B. To find restaurants and sell recipes for fried chicken.C. To count the number of restaurant in America.D. To open more Kentucky Fried Chicken chain stores.75 What does the author advise us to do in Paragraph 4?A. To modify your approach from time to time.B. To confirm whether your goal is practical.C. To change our circumstances constantly.D. To learn from our past mistakes.第II卷(非选择题满分35分)第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：任务型读写, 每个空格只填一个单词。
