四川省成都市2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题

Watch their curiosity spark, creativity flourish, and knowledge expand in this special blend of learning and play. (Ages: 7 ~ 10; Full Session: $ 3,375; Weekly: $ 1,015)1．In which camp will kids give a live show?A．Summer Gymnastics.B．Summer Performing Arts.C．Summer Dance Intensive.D．Summer STEAM Camp.2．What do we know about Summer Dance Intensive?A．It lasts for two months.B．It costs a kid 1,640 for two weeks.C．It has classes that meet kids’ needs.D．It provides dance training for kids under 10. 3．In which column of a newspaper can this text probably be found?A．Science.B．Art.C．Advertisement.D．Travel.A Taste of China explores diverse cuisine. In this episode, we’re in Chengdu, Sichuan, exploring its spicy dishes with culinary (烹饪的) experts.Mei: Could you tell us how you fell in love with Sichuan cuisine?Jing: I grew up in Canada, feeling quite disconnected from the identity of being Chinese. After university, I went to China to work and began digging into Chinese food. At first, I was just amazed by its diversity and complexity. But the more I studied, the more I realized how little we know about Chinese food in the West. The passion for Chinese food led me to found a restaurant called Fly By Jing. It is inspired by the flavors of “fly restaurants” or cangying guan. These restaurants in Chengdu are so delicious that no matter how shabby or lacking in atmosphere, people will find them and flock to them.Mei: What do you love about Sichuan?Fuchsia: There is a saying that if you are young, you should not go to Sichuan. Its capital city — Chengdu is a relaxing, pleasure-loving city, so ambitious people should steer clear! Sichuan is best known for its folk cooking and street food. You can just go into quite ordinary-looking restaurants and have a delicious meal.Mei: What do you think is one of the main things Westerners don’t know about Sichuan cuisine?John: One of the ironies is that while Sichuan cuisine has become popular internationally, people are often taken in by this stereotype (刻板印象) that it is just about the great drama of loads of chilies and peppers in pools of oil. But the real heart and soul of Sichuan cooking lies in the flavoring. I would say that sophistication and flavoring variety is something that people often miss out on.4．What made Jing decide to found Fly By Jing?A．Her love for Chinese food.B．Her desire to get Chinese identity.C．Her understanding of Chinese culture.D．Her wish to promote Chinese culture.5．What does the underlined phrase “steer clear” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Stay away.B．Move forward.C．Pass down.D．Pull through. 6．What is the common misunderstanding of Sichuan cuisine?A．It may cause health problems.B．It is very popular in the world.C．Its soul lies in the amazing flavor.D．It is all about chilies and peppers in oil. 7．What is the text mainly about?A．Ways to make local food.B．The charm of Sichuan food.C．Experts’tips on Sichuan cuisine.D．Differences between eastern and western food.Air pollution is among the biggest threats against humans, which causes seven million early deaths a year. To fight this problem, four friends put their heads together and designed CityTree, which is a mobile structure that can capture as many pollutants as a forest made up of 275 trees. What makes the ‘tree’ special is that it’s not a regular tree at all; it is made up of moss cultures (苔藓培养物) that do a great job of absorption.“Moss cultures have a much larger surface than any other plant,” Zhengliang Wu, co-founder of Green City Solutions, explained to CNN. “That means we can capture more pollutants.” The entire ‘tree’ sustains itself using solar panels that generate electricity so that it can collect rainwater itself. To monitor the health of the moss, the CityTree has sensors which measure temperature and water quality.Now, about 20 CityTrees can be found in major cities like Oslo, and Paris. The team also has plans to introduce the CityTree to cities in lower-income countries, which may have worse air pollution.However, Gary Fuller, an expert on air pollution, thinks that the concept of an urban air purifier might be too ambitious. “Even if you had a perfect air cleaner, getting the surrounding air in contact with it is really hard,” he said. Pollution made by cars, for example, spreads upwards afew kilometers into the air. “Efforts would be better put into stopping the pollution from forming in the first place,” he added.In response, the CityTree inventors say that they are aware of this and choose the location of each CityTree carefully. They are also testing a system to create their own air flow that draws the pollution to the “tree”.8．What is paragraph 2 mainly about concerning the CityTree?A．Its appearance.B．Its operating process.C．How it works.D．How it gets powered.9．What is Gary Fuller’s attitude to the CityTree?A．Doubtful.B．Intolerant.C．Worried.D．Unclear. 10．What will the CityTree inventors probably do?A．Develop a new type of air cleaner.B．Make improvements to the structure.C．Redirect efforts to make greener cars.D．Expand their business in rich countries. 11．Which of the following is the best title for this text?A．Global Efforts in Planting Trees B．The Alarming Trend of Air PollutionC．A Structure that Will Change the World D．The ‘Tree’ with the Green Benefits of a ForestDid you know the basic structure of your brain is very similar to that of other mammals? This surprising fact says a lot about animal thought because having brains and hormones(激素) similar to those of humans makes other mammals(哺乳动物) act, feel, and think much like we do.In fact, animals actually possess cognition, the ability to acquire knowledge. Elephants consciously(有意识地) learn which plants to eat from older elephants by observing them and tasting the foods they eat. So, while our experience of the world might differ from theirs, consciousness is not a privilege(特权) limited to us.And brains can even teach us about how animals feel. For instance, oxytocin, a kind of hormone, is essential in forming bonds in humans as well as other mammals. So, if it’s blocked in an individual’s brain, they’re likely to feel alone. The fact that the same is true for humans and animals suggests a similarity both in our brains and our feelings.But what about the animals with tiny brains? Can they feel too? Actually, brain size is a poor indicator of animal intelligence. A better one is how much an animal’s brain has in commonwith ours. That’s because a larger brain, while it means more computing power, isn’t necessarily helpful. For example, tuna have smaller brains than dolphins but are just as good at hunting.Large brains are necessary for being social and cooperating with others. That’s because when individuals are responsible for the survival of a group, a bigger or social brain is needed. In the case of animals that do have social brains, like elephants, whales, and dolphins, it’s hard to deny that they’re thinking and feeling like humans when their brains so closely resemble ours. 12．Why are elephants mentioned in paragraph 2?A．To compare humans and animals.B．To illustrate animals’ ability to learn.C．To introduce elephants’ eating habits.D．To prove elephants are social animals. 13．What will oxytocin’s being reduced lead to?A．Increased loneliness.B．Improved hunting skills.C．Poore r social ability.D．Stronger bonds with others.14．What does the underlined phrase “A better one” in paragraph 4 refer to?A．A larger brain.B．A more brilliant mind.C．A sharper sense.D．A more reliable indicator.15．What message does this text mainly intend to convey?A．Brain size is vital to intelligence.B．Consciousness is not humans’ privilege.C．Mammals may think and feel like humans.D．Animals share similar brain structure with humans.Managing Conflict with HumorLaughter is a powerful tool. 16 Here’s how to use humor to resolve disagreements and strengthen your relationships.Make sure you’re both in on the joke. Humor can help you overcome conflict only when both parties are in on the joke. 17 If he or she isn’t likely to appreciate the joke, don’t say or do it, even if it’s “all in good fun”. When the joking is one-sided rather than mutual, it can damage the relationship.18 Humor helps you face challenges in life. But there are times when humor is not healthy. For example, sometimes it is used as a cover for avoiding painful emotions. You can befunny about the truth, but hiding the truth isn’t funny. When you do that, you create confusion and mistrust in your relationships.Develop a smart sense of humor. Some find it easier than others to use humor, especially in tense situations. If your efforts aren’t going over well, start by using self-deprecating (自嘲的) humor. We all love people who don’t take themselves too seriously. After all, nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. So, if you’re having a bad hair day, make a joke about it. 19 Tap into (发掘) your playful side. It’s understandable to fear rejection when attempting humor. However, it’s important to point out that you don’t need to be a comedian to use humor to manage conflict. The point isn’t to impress the other person, but simply to lighten the mood.20 It can lower the other person’s defenses and put you both in a more positive state of mind. A．Some jokes are easy to understand.B．Avoid humor when facing challenges.C．Don’t use humor to cover up other emotions.D．So it’s important to be sensitive to the other person.E．Therefore, don’t be afraid to simply act silly like a kid.F．It brings people closer, managing conflict, and reducing tension.G．Even if the joke falls flat, the only person you risk offending is yourself.二、完形填空Chiara Beer, 27, who lives in Winchester, suffered a serious stroke(中风) as a baby.

In a recent study, University of Miami Assistant Professor of Psychology Lynn Perry and a team of fellow researchers who examined child speech communications over the course of a year found that children benefit from conversations with their peers (同龄人) and their teachers. The study examined how language use and development in 2-and 3-year-old children was influenced by what they heard from their teachers and their peers.“Previous research on language development looked mostly at the role of parent-child communication within a home setting or a lab environment, which means we’re missing a big part of a child’s everyday life — the classroom,” said Perry. “We know that parent language is important for children’s development and their academic achievement, but we don’t have much research on what happens in the kindergarten or preschool setting.”Using a device (设备) called a Language Environment Analysis (LENA) recorder, Perry collected hundreds of hours of audio recordings. Children wore the LENA recorder once a week. LENA software then assessed whether the recorded audio was speech or not, and whether the speech came from the child wearing the recorder or from an adult or another child talking to them.After studying the audio data, Perry found that the speech children heard from other children was positively related to their own language use, meaning children who heard themost from their peers learn more new words and vocalize more during the course of the year. Additionally, there was a positive association between a teacher talking and children’s language use and development — but only when that teacher talked to the child in a back-and-forth conversation, rather than just talking to the child with no opportunity for the child to respond.“One important aspect of the study that stands out to me is how important it was to see those conversational turns with teachers, and that back-and-forth conversation with the child is very beneficial. We talked to the teachers about the results, and they are very excited about this finding and currently brainstorming additional opportunities to have conversations with children,” adds Perry.4．What does the new study focus on?A．The basics of school readiness for preschool children.B．The parent-child communication at home or in the lab.C．The influence of conversations in the kindergarten on children.D．The ways to improve preschool children’s healthy growth.5．How did the researchers perform their new study?A．By observing the children in class .B．By conducting a survey of teachers.C．By communicating with the children.D．By recording the children’s speech in class.A．Listen.B．Speak.C．Read.D．Write. 7．What do teachers plan to do to develop children’s speech ability according to the text?A．Have more back -and- forth conversations with children.B．Encourage children to listen more to their own speech.C．Inform parents of the importance of conversational turns.D．Add more brainstorming activities to their daily teaching.A fourth color might be added to traffic lights to better realize the potential of self-driving vehicles, as stated in a recent paper by researchers at North Carolina State University in the US.Autonomous vehicles can do more than just drive-they are able to sense their surroundings and upload information. A shared network gives orders to stop at a crossingbased on traffic conditions.The added white lights would be used to signal to human drivers that autonomous vehicles are managing the upcoming traffic flow intelligently. Drivers don’t have to check the traditional lights if the white one is on. “The white lights will tell human drivers to simply follow the car in front of them,” one of the study authors Ali Hajbabaie told the university’s website.Simulated (模拟的) models showed that autonomous vehicles were able to improve traffic flow on their own. Introducing the white light also has a positive effect on reducing fuel consumption. The higher the percentage of autonomous vehicles at a crossing, the faster the traffic moves, reducing about 40 to 99 percent of the total delay time.What kind of infrastructure (基础设施) is needed as self-driving technology thrives? In an interview with China Surveying and Mapping magazine, Liu Jingnan at the Chinese Academy of Engineering shared his answers.To begin with, the vehicle’s network that collects data about the environment and shares the data with other vehicles needs to be intelligent. High-precision maps are needed for autonomous vehicles to plan routes in detail. They can provide both updated information on traditional maps and real-time changes, such as accidents.For example, when driving around a curve, the navigation (导航) system in the vehicle needs to calculate the safe speed based on the map’s information. And if the area is foggy, the network has to alarm the other cars to slow down.Other elements on the road need to be upgraded too. For example, road markings should be precise and readable for machines. Sensors should be built on sidewalks and roads to allow vehicles to predict potentially dangerous situations.8．What is the purpose of adding a white light to traffic lights?A．To signal to self-driving cars when to stop.B．To help driverless cars assess traffic conditions.C．To tell human drivers to go after the cars in front.D．To signal to human drivers to pass the cars ahead.9．According to the article, what effect would the introduction of self-driving cars bring about?A．Increased road safety.B．Reduced fuel efficiency.C．Less time stuck in traffic.D．Unpredictable traffic patterns.10．What is a function of high-precision maps in self-driving technology?A．To calculate a safe speed for vehicles.B．To provide real-time weather updates.C．To plan routes for autonomous vehicles.D．To offer real-time data on roadconditions.11．What does the author intend to prove in the second-to-last paragraph?A．The advantages of autonomous vehicles.B．The role of the navigation system in self-driving cars.C．The application of the infrastructure in self-driving cars.D．The efficiency of self-driving cars handling emergencies.Hospice (临终安养院) services benefit only about one person in three who dies in the US. “There are still over one million Americans who die each year without receiving hospice services,” according to a report produced in 2003. And for most who do get hospice care, their time in hospice is so short that staff members often lack the opportunity to provide the best care for their physical and emotional needs.There are several reasons that more patients do not go into hospice care earlier. One is that Medicare (医疗保险) doesn’t cover the cost of patients’ life-extending treatment if they enter hospice. Medicare also requires that the doctor referring someone for hospice care must declare that the patient is expected to die within six months. As a result, some doctors hesitate about making an early referral to avoid being accused of cheating. Finally, there are simply not enough hospice centers and services available to meet the needs of dying patients throughout the country.Many patients still have some concern over how hospice works. The philosophy of hospice is to neither accelerate nor postpone death. As Dr. Matt Kestenbaum, a hospice director, put it: “We let nature take its course, and we give patients all the things they need to be comfortable.”Dying “naturally” in hospice does not deny patients the treatment for common diseases like blood clots. Hospice expenses are automatically covered by Medicare and most insurers provide hospice coverage as well.Choosing hospice care does not mean patients lose the services of their personal doctors. They can return to regular insurance benefits when they leave hospice care because their condition improves or they want a therapy the hospice does not provide.One thing bothering doctors is that patients will lose hope if they go into hospice. But the goal should be to refocus hope on what might be realistically achieved in the time remaining. A patient who enters hospice can have the opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends and settle unfinished business.12．Why don’t many patients go to hospice earlier?A．Because patients have to stay in hospice for a long time.B．Because Medicare requirements aren’t in favor of hospice.C．Because doctors can’t predict how long patients will live.D．Because most hospice services are far away from patients.13．What is the aim of hospice services?A．To extend patients’ life.B．To ease patients’ sufferings.C．To reduce patients’ costs.D．To settle patients’ business.14．What concern might patients have about entering hospice?A．They will lose treatment for common diseases.B．Hospice can’t provide the treatment they need.C．Doctors may give them unrealistic hope.D．They will be separated from their family.15．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A．To criticize America’s Medicare system.B．To explain why hospice is unpopular.C．To introduce the way hospice works.D．To popularize hospice services.二、七选五Personal ForgivenessTaking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step, but don’t beat yourself up about them. To err (犯错) is human. 16 You can use the following writing exercise to help you do this.In a journal or on a piece of paper, put the heading “Personal strengths.” 17 Are you caring? Creative? Generous? A good listener? Fun to be around? They don’t have to be world-changing, just aspects of your personality that you’re proud of.At the top of a second page, put the heading “Acts of kindness.” On this one, list all the positive things you’ve done for others. It might be the time when you helped a friend with their homework, when you did the ironing without being asked, or when you baked cookies after the family had had a tiring day. 18You could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list. 19 That way, you could exchange thoughts on what makes each of you special and the aspects of your personality that shine through. In fact, don’t wait until you’ve made a mistake to try this — it’s a great way to boost self-confidence at any time.It’s something of a cliché (陈词滥调) that most people learn not from their successes but their mistakes.
