湖北省部分学校2023-2024学年高二下学期6月月考英语试题一、阅读理解How to explore Yellowstone National Park in just two days? Here is an incredible 2-day itinerary (行程) that enables you to see Yellowstone’s best in just one weekend.DAY ONE●Lamar Valley: This grassy valley supports huge numbers of bears, wolves, deer, bisons, coyotes and bald eagles. To see a wolf, get up before sunrise and head to Lamar Valley in the park’s northeast corner.●Mammoth Hot Springs: Near the park's north entrance, stop at Mammoth Hot Springs where you can see colorful terraces (梯形地貌) formed by hot springs rising to the surface. You’ll see about 50 hot springs as you follow the boardwalks for 1.75 miles.●Old Faithful Inn: A trip to Yellowstone wouldn’t be complete without seeing one of the largest log structures in the world. Built from 1903 to 1904, the Old Faithful Inn is an amazing hotel worth visiting.DAY TWO●Grand Prismatic: Head to Midway Geyser Basin and walk along the boardwalk to see one of the world’s largest and deepest hot springs — Grand Prismatic Spring. It’s larger than a football field at 370 feet across and deeper than a 10-story building at 125 feet. Its colors are incredible and range from deep blue in the center to green to yellow and orange on the edges.●Yellowstone Lake: When you feel hungry, head for Yellowstone Lake, which has 141 miles of shoreline. Thirteen picnic areas line the lake’s shores. Be ready to enjoy a peaceful picnic.●Giant Waterfalls: The powerful Yellowstone River formed the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone which is home to three incredible waterfalls: Upper, Lower and Crystal falls. Seeing the waterfalls in the late afternoon or early evening light is breathtaking.1．Which of the following is the best place for watching wildlife?A．Lamar Valley.B．Giant Waterfalls.C．Grand Prismatic.D．Mammoth Hot Springs.2．What is the highlight of Old Faithful Inn?A．Its short history.B．Its surrounding wonders.C．Its modern design.D．Its unique architecture.3．What do we know about Grand Prismatic?A．It is blue on the edges.B．It is perfect for a picnic.C．It is very large in size.D．It owns three waterfalls.When Ben Edlavitch was in elementary school, his grandfather, David Levine, got him his first Lego set. Growing up in Richmond, Edlavitch enjoyed plenty of quality time with his grandfather. From Edlavitch’s young age, the two shared countless hours tending to Levine’s 1926 Ford Model A, which developed in them a working rapport (融洽) that served them well when they participated as contestants on the fourth season of Lego Masters, a reality competition show on Fox, in the fall of 2023.Edlavitch and Levine were among 12 teams chosen from over 2,000 applicants to appear on the show, hosted by Lego Batman himself, Will Arnett. Over the course of the show, the teams were tasked with creating original builds for a chance to win $100,000 and the title of Lego Master. To prepare for it, Edlavitch says, “We spent a lot of time together figuring out Lego techniques... We studied past seasons to see what the judges liked and responded to.”For Edlavitch, 21, a student at the University of Virginia studying community-focused architecture, Lego bricks build a lifetime of “play”, an essential aspect of his approach to architecture. “Lego teaches you a world perspective (视角), which is that you can take anything apart and put it back together again in a way that makes it better,” he says,“and that, I think, is what got me into architecture.”Aside from his builds on Lego Masters, Edlavitch has created a 433-brick model of the Richmond skyline and a Richmond city block. Moreover, Edlavitch says he will offer kids’ workshops that combine Lego and architecture in an approachable way, introducing the field to a new generation through “play”.According to Edlavitch, most people don’t think about architecture very seriously as a career until later high school or college, at which point a lot of these kind of old-fashioned programs are considered too late to get started, and this leads to a less diverse and less creative field. He hopes, through his builds and workshops, to model a different approach.4．How was Edlavitch and his grandfather’s performance at the show?A．Unsatisfying.B．Unexpected.C．Excellent.D．Worrying. 5．What did Edlavitch and his grandfather do for the show?A．They arranged three seasons.B．They consulted Lego Batman.C．They interviewed the judges.D．They studied Lego techniques.6．What does Edlavitch think of “play”?A．It is important for learning architecture.B．It takes up much of his study time.C．It fails to open opportunities for creation.D．It is meaningless for a new generation. 7．Why does Edlavitch decide to provide workshops for kids?A．To offer chances for them to recognize Lego.B．To develop their interest in architecture.C．To encourage them to be more serious.D．To show his talent in building Lego.Using AI, a group of researchers from Dalhouse University in Halifax have begun the work of translating the language of chickens. Dr. Suresh Neethirajan, one of the lead researchers of the study, set out to create a “universal chicken translator”, reported The Conversation.Chicken speech is actually a lot more complex than one might think. They can make different sounds, and the way they communicate with one another can be affected by their environment and age. Moreover, chickens also communicate through body language and facial expressions.Luckily, the researchers were able to use new Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to help them begin to know what chickens are saying. According to The Conversation, AI can process and analyze huge amounts of sound data. It can recognize patterns and types of vocalizations (发声). Using this information and an AI technique called Natural Language Processing, the researchers began to interpret the emotional states of chickens. Moreover, the researchers also used data video to record the chickens’ expressions and facial temperatures, thus knowing how chickens respond to something stressful.Neethirajan said that his team’s interest in chicken communication isn’t just academic. “Farmers can use this knowledge to create better living conditions, leading to healthier andhappier chickens. This, in turn, can affect the quality of produce, animal health and overall farm efficiency,” he said.The more people understand animals, the more likely they are to care about their well-being. Other researchers could use the data and methods that Neethirajan and his team have collected to begin to understand other bird species, and take care of their well-being as well.As AI becomes more and more common in our lives, it can be misused more easily. Neethirajan and his team, however, are part of a push toward positive AI use. Instead of using AI for boring goals, they suggest using AI to create a better world. For this, they should be commended.8．Why is the complexity of chicken speech mentioned in paragraph 2?A．To introduce the lifestyles of chickens.B．To explain chickens’ ways of communication.C．To prove scientists’ idea of new AI technologies.D．To show the necessity to create chicken translators.9．What did Neethirajan’s team use Natural Language Processing to do?A．Observe chickens’ facial expressions.B．Track chickens’ temperatures.C．Learn about chickens’ feelings.D．Record chickens’ sounds.10．What does Neethirajan say about their finding?A．It can be beneficial to farmers.B．It needs further testing.C．It causes doubt among researchers.D．It is harmful to animals.11．What does the underlined word “commended” in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Invited.B．Praised.C．Ignored.D．Trained.Today’s teens are still going through the same physical and emotional transitions (过渡) older generations had, but they’re also burdened with pressures we never could have imagined even several years ago—from the cruel separation caused by social media to the terrifying impact of climate change. In the face of all this, how can teens overcome these challenges? While there’re no simple answers to this question, part of the way forward is learning self-compassion.Self-compassion means treating yourself with kindness and support when you’re having a hard time, being aware of difficult emotions and recognizing they’re a normal part of life. Thismay sound like no big deal, but actually, most of us do the opposite. When something’s happened that makes us feel bad, for example, we tend to be overly self-critical, often assuming that whatever happened was our fault.In a recently published study, my colleagues and I taught one group of teens the Mindful Self-Compassion for Teens (MSC-T) program. Eight sessions were designed to help them be more supportive and compassionate to themselves. Another group learned a healthy lifestyle course that included sessions on nutrition, exercise, sleep and healthy social media use.In our study, all the teens were exhibiting some anxious symptoms. The results showed that after six months, teens in the self-compassion group were over 2.5 times less likely to develop full-blown anxiety compared to teens in the healthy lifestyle group, suggesting the self-compassion course protected the teens from getting more anxious.Although we can’t determine how self-compassion is protective, we suspect it has to do with teens developing an understanding of common humanity. In one class, a teen said, “Whatever you’re feeling, you’re not alone in it. Somebody else will feel the same way, and will know where you’re coming from.”Self-compassion won’t solve all teens’ problems. But it’ll give them a new way to approach their problems without blaming themselves. As one teen said to me after taking a self-compassion course, “You know, it’s changed the way I look at myself and the world.” And that can make all the difference.12．What do most people tend to do when having a hard time?A．They criticize others.B．They seek support.C．They remain normal.D．They blame themselves.13．How did the author and his colleagues mainly draw their conclusion?A．By making comparisons.B．By listing numbers.C．By quoting sayings.D．By presenting examples.14．How can self-compassion affect teens in the author’s opinion?A．It helps develop kindness in them.B．It can give them a new viewpoint.C．It gets them to take care of others.D．It makes them emotionally weaker. 15．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．How Can Teenagers Get Over Challenges in Life?B．How Is Self-Compassion Used to Fight Loneliness?C．Can Self-Compassion Help Teens With Anxiety?D．Is Guiding the Teen Years Harder Than Before?While most people appreciate the health advantages that come from running, cycling, or lifting weights, fewer people understand the benefits that come from a good swim. Actually, swimming provides a series of specific benefits.Arguably, the most important one is that it promotes heart health. According to a research, the practice improves circulation and cardiovascular (心血管的) efficiency, so one’s risk of heart attack decreases. 16 , which raises your heart rate and reduces your blood pressure effectively.17 . To push yourself forward, swimming requires the use of many major muscle groups of the body. These include core muscles, neck muscles, arm, hand and shoulder muscles, chest and back muscles, plus leg and feet muscles, thus contributing to muscle strengthening.Swimming can aid in weight management goals as well. 18 . One public health analysis found that a 155-pound person burns 281 calories per hour swimming at a medium pace but can burn as many as 704 calories per hour swimming freestyle at a vigorous (强有力的) pace.Additionally, swimming has mental health benefits. Studies show that moving through water increases blood flow to the brain and causes a release of dopamine (多巴胺). 19 .Given so many benefits of swimming, why not get started? Some experts recommend a mix of both swimming and other water-related works when starting out. Above all, making the experience enjoyable is key to ensuring you stick with it. “Swimming is not just an exercise but an enjoyable and refreshing experience. 20 ,” says Lori Sherlock, an exercise physiology professor at West Virginia University School of Medicine.A．Swimming is also good for every muscle in the bodyB．Swimming is a whole-body rhythmic and dynamic activityC．The butterfly stroke burns as many as 774 calories per hourD．Research shows that repeating swim movements can burn many caloriesE．There are some techniques about swimming which need to be practicedF．In this way, swimming has even been shown to improve memory functionG．It can also enhance your physical health, mental well-being and quality of life二、完形填空I stared at the screen, re-reading the message from my friend, Noelle. Someone had 21 her by sharing her personal news — she had been refused by her dream school, which Noelle had shared with only several people. She didn’t know who let the 22 out, but she was disappointed.I felt so 23 as I’d been the one to tell someone beyond her 24 . It’d have been easy to admit what I had done and 25 if her note was an accusation. But it read as though it had been 26 and pasted (粘贴) to several people. 27 the right option, I chose the coward (胆小的) way out.“I’m sorry that happened to you,” I 28 . “How awful that your confidence was broken.” And her 29 came back within seconds, “Thank you.”30 , that would be good enough. I didn’t admit my action, but I’d expressed regret and 31 her pain. But, deep down, I knew I’d been the one to 32 faith and hurt her. I was ashamed, not only for my original action, but because I’d heaped (堆积) wrong upon wrong by 33 it up.I felt painful. I knew what stood between me and doing the right thing: my image. That’s what I 34 to lose after telling Noelle the truth.Yet what was my image compared to doing the 35 thing? To remain silent would make that image a lie anyway. So the next day, I went straight to Noelle and admitted what I’d done.21．A．followed B．interrupted C．upset D．warned 22．A．solution B．word C．way D．cry 23．A．angry B．surprised C．amused D．guilty 24．A．circle B．response C．control D．description 25．A．wait B．question C．apologize D．smile 26．A．refused B．copied C．removed D．taught 27．A．Making B．Considering C．Expecting D．Ignoring28．A．typed B．called C．admitted D．repeated 29．A．translation B．doubt C．reply D．puzzle 30．A．Luckily B．Surely C．Sadly D．Simply 31．A．sympathized with B．assisted with C．reflected onD．experimented on32．A．answer B．establish C．have D．break 33．A．picking B．taking C．covering D．bringing 34．A．feared B．decided C．intended D．managed 35．A．boring B．right C．embarrassing D．traditional三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
河南省周口市鹿邑县2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
河南省周口市鹿邑县2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解If you’re wondering why indoor skate parks are becoming the hottest trend among the young ones, just think about the incredible benefits they offer:● Safety First: Indoor skate parks are designed with safety in mind, featuring soft ramps (斜坡), padded areas, and well-maintained obstacles, ensuring your kids can skate without the worry of weather-related risks.● Community Spirit: They are not just about skateboarding; they’re energetic communities where kids can make new friends, learn from each other, and share a positive atmosphere.● Professional Guidance: Most indoor parks have experienced instructors ready to help your kids learn and improve in a structured and supportive environment.Choosing the Best Indoor Skate Park for Your FamilyNow that you’re all stoked about indoor skate parks, it’s time to find the perfect one for your family’s needs. Here’s a checklist to help you make an informed choice:● Variety of Features: Look for a park with diverse areas and obstacles that cater to (迎合) all skill levels, from beginners to advanced skaters.● Cleanliness and Maintenance: A well-kept park is a happy park. Check out reviews or visit in person to ensure the facility is clean and well-maintained.● Staff Credentials (资质): Inquire about the qualifications of the staff and coaches. It’s essential they have the experience and skills to provide a safe and supportive learning environment.● Opening Times: Make sure the park’s schedule matches with your family’s routine. Consider memberships or punch cards if you plan on becoming regulars!● Snack Facilities: Active kids are hungry kids. See if there’s a cafe or snack bar to refuel after an energetic session.By keeping these points in mind, you’ll be able to find an indoor skate park that not only fuels the passion for skateboarding in your children but also becomes a regular spot for familybonding and fun.1．Who will most probably sign up for the indoor skate parks?A．A man caring about maintenance of a park.B．A designer interested in snack facilities.C．A kid eager to go for outdoor activities.D．A mother motivating her kids to learn skateboarding.2．What can we know about kids skating in indoor skate parks?A．They needn’t be concerned about weather’s impact.B．They can play skateboards with parents whenever.C．They will gain guidance from foreign instructors.D．They must compete with each other regularly.3．Which of the following may not be necessarily considered?A．The qualifications of the staff.B．Opening hours including holidays.C．Cleaning and safeguard of facilities.D．Accommodation and hotels.It is my first time playing the game, which I know nothing about. I am not a soccer fan, and every time I watch a match, I fall asleep within 10 minutes, without exception.Before I went to The Other Green’s salon held by La Otra — a women-themed bookstore in Beijing — last month, playing soccer never would have appeared on my bucket list. I regularly do yoga, cycle and swim, which, in my eyes, are good exercises for women, while soccer, definitely, is for men.How can soccer become a feminist (女权主义的) topic? What prevents women from participating in the game? Or is it really a game only for men? Keeping these questions in mind, I step into the salon and meet five members from the Beijing-based WM female soccer club. They look wonderful, with sunny smiles and athletic figures. And their passion and confidence impress me when they talk about how soccer has changed their lives.What’s more, they all faced societal prejudices about women playing soccer and want to break gender gaps. A tough player since primary school, Xiao Da used to be the only girl on the court and was excluded from school training because there was no girls’ team at her school.Being a working mother for seven years, my life has been limited to the office and home,and when I heard about the physical and mental benefits that it brings, I hoped soccer can make a difference in my boring life.This is where the story starts. After an hour of warm-up exercises and practising kicking a ball around, here comes the match time. I try to shoot twice, miss both times and I hurt my right leg for perhaps the following two weeks. I still feel the pain. But I also feel that, for me, happiness is real on the court. Soccer is more than just a game.4．What impression do the female soccer members leave on the author?A．They’re energetic and confident.B．They’re angry with gender prejudice.C．They’re always treated fairly.D．They’re respected by others.5．What does the underlined phrase “excluded from” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．Accepted.B．Refused.C．Elected.D．Protected.6．Why does the author take part in the soccer team?A．To satisfy her own curiosity.B．To be different from others.C．To make life more meaningful.D．To escape from the real world.7．What does the author imply in the last paragraph?A．She will give up playing soccer.B．She is determined to teach soccer.C．She takes a fancy to soccer.D．She gets more hurt than happiness from soccer.Most of us like shortcuts — the ones that get us to a place faster, whether we have to walk through a few trees or jump over a wall. But how far would you go to make a really good shortcut? Probably not as far as the Americans did when they built the Panama Canal, giving ships a quicker route between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific. When it opened in 1914, the canal cut the journey time from the east coast of the US to the west coast by as much as 15,000 kilometres.This was not an easy shortcut. Panama had been chosen mainly because it was the narrowest part of Central America. But the land was mountainous and full of tropical rain forests and it was still more than 80 kilometres wide. It’s said that almost 6,000 workers died from making the canal between 1904 and 1913, but the real number is probably much higher.As well as the difficult, dangerous job they had, those workers — many from the Caribbean — had to deal with heat, mosquitoes (蚊子), snakes and lots of rain. The result was a canal thathas been called one of the wonders of the modern world.Today, a ship entering the canal has to pass through three sets of locks. These are used like stairs, and they’re needed because the canal is not of the same height all the way through. The locks use lots of fresh water to lift up the boats-on average, 9 billion liters every day from lakes next to the canal.And although Panama is a wet country, the climate is changing, and there is less water now than there used to be. The Panama Canal is still a shortcut for now, but it’s in danger.8．How does the author develop Paragraph 1?A．By giving an example.B．By asking a question.C．By referring to old writings.D．By making an assumption.9．Why was the Panama Canal called a hard shortcut?A．Panama has complex geography characters.B．6, 000 workers died each year during its building process.C．Panama always came across terrible weather.D．Unknown wildlife increased challenges of making it.10．What do you think of the locks using fresh water?A．It is a waste of natural resource.B．It makes lakes next to the canal in danger.C．It is a must to keep boats run smoothly.D．It is a good way to deal with changeable climate.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Everyone Is Willing to Take ShortcutsB．The Great Canal Facing Climate ChangesC．The Panama Canal Is an Important ShortcutD．The Old Canal Lacking Water to Lift BoatsMore than 2,200 years ago, a battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians took place at sea off northwestern Sicily. Rome was victorious, defeating the other military ships and ending the war. While so much was destroyed at the time, scientists have recently discovered a shipwreck that was sunk in the battle with at least 114 animal species living on the ship’s ram (夯锤).The ram’s discovery is an important archaeological discovery. But finding it to be a host for so much underwater life also provides great insight for scientists studying how marine animals colonize (聚居) empty sites and slowly create diverse and rich communities there.The ram was recovered in 2017, located between 75 and 90 metres deep. It’s bronze and hollow, allowing it to accumulate (积累) sea creatures both inside and outside. Several years later the ram was cleaned and restored by researchers. All the marine animals found inside and outside the ram were collected, along with blocks of sediment (沉积物) and hardened materials from the same area.Scientists have been working to compare the species found in and around the ram with those found in similar Mediterranean habitats. They reconstructed how it had likely been colonized. “We conclude that the primary ‘constructors’ in this community are organisms which attach themselves directly to the wreck’s surface,” said Edoardo Casoli from Sapienza University of Rome. “Then there are ‘habitants’ which aren’t attached but move freely between empty spaces in the superstructure. What we don’t yet know exactly is the order in which these organisms colonize wrecks.”“Younger shipwrecks (遇难船只) typically host a less diverse community than their environment,” said Maria Flavia Gravina, another researcher. “By comparison, our ram is much more representative of the natural habitat. It can act as a novel kind of sampling tool for scientists, which effectively acts as an ‘ecological memory’ of colonization.”12．Why is the battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians mentioned?A．To lead in the topic.B．To draw a conclusion.C．To arouse the sympathy about the war.D．To clarify the serious damage caused by the war.13．How did scientists do researches about the marine animals on the ram?A．By creating the post-war situations.B．By comparing the habitats of 114 species.C．By restoration, reconstruction and comparison.D．By putting the organisms colonize wrecks in order.14．What does the underlined word “It” refer to in the last paragraph?A．The ship’s ram.B．The marine environment.C．A less diverse community.D．The natural habitat of marine animals. 15．Where is the text probably taken from?A．A guidebook to a sea exploration.B．An educational website.C．A government document.D．A natural science magazine.How to Introduce Friends to Other FriendsYou may find that you have two friends that you really want to introduce to each other.16 .

山西省原平市范亭中学2024_2025学年高二英语4月月考试题
山西省原平市范亭中学2024-2025学年高二英语4月月考试题本试卷分为第I卷（选择题）和第II卷（非选择题）两部分, 共150分。
考试时间120分钟。
第I卷（共100分）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）第一节（共15小题，每小题3分，满分45分）AA new app aims to help parents interpret what their baby wants based on the sound of their cry. The free app ChatterBaby, which was released last month, analyzes the acoustic (声学的) features of a baby’s cry, to help parents understand whether their child might be hungry, fussy or in pain. While critics say caregivers should not rely too much on their smartphone, others say it’s a helpful tool for new or tired parents.Ariana Anderson, a mother of four, developed the app. She originally designed the technology to help deaf parents better understand why their baby was upset, but soon realized it could be a helpful tool for all new parents.To build a database, Anderson and her team uploaded 2,000 audio samples of infant(婴儿) cries. She used cries recorded during ear piercings and vaccinations to distinguish pain cries. And to create a baseline for the other two categories, a group of moms had to agree on whether the cry was either hungry or fussy.Anderson’s team continues to collect data and hopes to make the app more accurate by asking parents to get specific about what certain sounds mean.Pediatrician Eric Ball pointed out that evaluating cries can never be an exact science. “I think that all of the apps and technology that new parents are using now can be helpful but need to be taken seriously,” Ball said ,“ I do worry that some parents will get stuck in big data and turn their parenting into basically a spreadsheet(电子表格) which I think will take away the love and caring that parents are supposed to be providing for the children. ”But Anderson said the aim of the app is to have parents interpret the results, not to provide a yes o r no answer. The Bells, a couple using this app, say it’s a win-win. They believe they are not only helping their baby now but potentially othersin the future.1．How does the app judge what babies want?A．By collecting data. B．By recording all the sounds.C．By analyzing the sound of their cries. D．By asking parents about specific messages.2．What was the app designed for in the beginning?A．All new parents. B．Deaf parents.C．Ariana Anderson. D．Crying babies.3．What i s Ball’s opinion about the app?A．Parents should use the app wisely.B．The app can create an accurate result.C．Parents and babies are addicted to the app.D．The app makes babies lose love and caring.4．What is the text mainly about?A．Parents should not rely too much on their smartphones.B．A new app helps parents figure out why their babies are crying.C．Parents can deal with babies’ hunger with the help of a new app.D．A new app called ChatterBaby can prevent babies from crying.BMany people spend more than four hours per day on We Chat, and it is redefining the word “friend.” Does friending someone on social media make him or her your friend in real life?Robin Dunbar, a professor at Oxford University, found that only 15, of the 150 Facebook friends the average user has, could be counted as actual friends and only five as close friends. We Chat may show a similar pattern.Those with whom you attended a course together, applied for the same part-time job, went to a party and intended to cooperate but failed take up most of your WeChat friends. In chat records, the only message may be a system notice, “You have accepted somebody’s friend request”. Sometimes when seeing some photos shared on “Moments”, you even need several minutes to think about when you became friends. Also, you maybe disturbed by mass messages (群发信息) sent from your unfamiliar “friends”, including requests for voting for their children or friends, links from Pinduoduo (a Chinese e-commerce platform that allows users to buy items at lower prices if they purchase in groups) and cookie-cutter (一模一样的) blessings in holidays.You would have thought about deleting this type of “friends” and sort out your connections. But actually you did not do that as you were taught that social networkingis valuable to one’s success. Besides, it would be really awkward if they found thatyou have unfriended them already. Then, you keep increasing your “friends” in social media and click “like” on some pictures that you are not really interested. Butthe fact is that deep emotional connections do not come with the increasing numberof your friends in social media.If the number of your friends reaches 150, maintaining these relationships canbe tough to you, and sometimes even will make you anxious. According to Robin Dunbar,150 is the limit of the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships.5．What can we learn from Robin Dunbar's finding in Paragraph 2?A．A Facebook user has 250 friends on average.B．Most of the social media friends can be actual friends.C．Among our social media friends, only a few people matter.D．Only 15 people of a person’s Facebook friends can be close friends.6．What does the third paragraph tell us about most of your WeChat friends?A．You have deep communication with them.B．You benefit a lot from their mass messages.C．You just have a nodding acquaintance with them.D．You become friends with them in important occasions.7．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．Removing unfamiliar friends in WeChat.B．Strengthening ties with your We Chat friends.C．Keeping increasing your friends in social media.D．Clicking “like” on pictures posted by your friends.8．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．We will be anxious if we make friends online.B．We should avoid making any friends in social media.C．We should make as many friends as possible in social media.D．We have difficulty managing relationships with over 150 people.CLast week, Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost £ 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram (全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second.The wider application is to support connected equipment on the "internet of things" -not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones (无人机) to communicate with each other.Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5 G phone well before 5 G becomes widely available in the nextcouple of years.9．Why does Prof William Webb say "the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes" ?A．He is in favor of the application of the new technology.B．5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.C．5G helps people communicate better with each other.D．He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.10．The underlined word "addressing" in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to________A．making a speech to B．trying to solveC．managing to decrease D．responding to11．The last paragraph indicates thatA．it'll take several years .to make 5G accessible to the public in the UK B．5G service shows huge development potential and a broad marketC．customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G onesD．it's probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in BritainDZebra crossings (斑马线) — the alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface — are meant to remind drivers that pedestrians may be trying to get across. Unfortunately, they are not very effective. A 1998 study done by the Department of Traffic Planning and Engineering at Sweden’s Lund University showed that three out of four drivers kept the same speed or even speeded up as they were approaching a crossing. Even worse? Only 5% stopped even when they saw someone trying to get across.Now a mother-daughter team in Ahmedabad, India has come up with a clever way to get drivers to pay more attention — a 3D zebra crossing with an optical illusion (视错觉). Artists Saumya Pandya Thakkar and Shakuntala Pandya were asked to paint the crosswalks by IL&FS, an Indian company that manages the highways in Ahmedabad. The corporation was looking for a creative solution to help the city’s residents to cross the busy accident-prone (易出事故的) roads safely. Thakkar and Pandya, who had previously seen images of 3D zebra crossings that gave drivers the illusion oflogs of wood on the streets in Taizhou， China, decided to test if a similar way would work in India.Sure enough, in the six months when the 3D crosswalks have been painted across four of the city’s most dangerous highways, there have been no accidents reported! The artists say that while it may appear that the zebra crossing could cause the drivers to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind, such is not the case. Because of the way the human eye works, the illusion is only visible from a distance. As they get closer, the painting looks just like any other ordinary zebra crossing. The creators hope that their smart design will become increasingly common throughout India and perhaps even the world. So let’s look forward to it.12．What can we learn from the first paragraph?A．Most drivers will slow down at zebra crossings.B．Common zebra crossings don’t function well.C．Drivers have to stop when approaching zebra crossings.D．About 95% of the drivers choose to speed up when approaching zebra crossings. 13．Why do drivers seeing the 3D zebra crossings slow down according to Para. 2?A．Because the drivers consider the safety of pedestrians.B．Because the drivers mistake them for logs of wood on the streets.C．Because the drivers are afraid of being fined for breaking the traffic rules.D．Because the drivers don’t want to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind.14．The last paragraph is mainly about ________.A．the theory of the 3D zebra crossingsB．the popularity of the 3D zebra crossingsC．the shortcoming of the 3D zebra crossingsD．the positive effect of the 3D zebra crossings15．What is the author’s attitude towards the 3D zebra cross ings?A．Cautious. B．Doubtful. C．Approving. D．Disapproving.其次节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

海南省海口市琼山区海南中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
海南省海口市琼山区海南中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解What’s best to read this year?Secrets I Know (Random House Children’s Books, ages 3-7)This tale written by Kallie George and pictured by Paola Zakimi follows a young girl and her little friend as they move from rain to sunshine, from pleasant loneliness to sweet friendship, and finally from adventures on earth to an exploration of the sky above. The colors of Zakimi’s pencildrawings are calming and George’s poetic text tells her story with simple language.Pandora (Clarion Books, ages 3-7)The award-winning author Victoria Turnbull tells the story of a little fox Pandora. Pandora lives alone. She makes herself a handsome home, but no one ever comes to visit. Then one day something falls from the sky -- a bird with a broken wing. Little by little, the bird helps Pandora feel less lonely. Turnbull’s watercolor and colored pencil drawings make this story of friendship and growth an atmospheric delight.Prince and Pirate (G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Younger Readers, ages 5-8)A different kind of friendship is described in this book, by Charlotte Gunnufson with pictures by Mike Lowery. Prince and Pirate are a pair of mismatched fish put into the same aquarium（水族馆). At first it seems that they’ll never learn to be friends. It’s only when both take pity on a frightened dogfish that they learn the benefits of cooperation, and soon all three fish become good friends.The Giant Jumperee (Dinal Books, ages 3-5)The story was written by the award-winning British author Julia Donaldson. When Rabbit hears a loud voice bellowing（吼叫）threateningly from inside a cave, he gathers Cat, Bear and Elephant to help him decide what to do. But it’s Mama Frog who fearlessly confronts（面对）the unknown creature. Helen Oxenbury’s soft watercolors creat a beautiful countryside and her characterizations of the animals are impressive.1．Who pictured the book Pandora?A．Kallie George.B．Victoria Turnbull.C．Paola Zakimi.D．Charlotte Gunnufson.2．Which book tells a story about courage?A．Pandora.B．Secrets I Know.C．Prince and Pirate.D．The Giant Jumperee.3．What do the four books have in common?A．Their publishers are the same one.B．Their characters are all animals.C．They all have pencil drawings.D．They are all for younger readersA movie about rural soccer players focuses on teenage girls and seeks to inspire audiences to follow dreams. In late 2018, Fei Yu, a director from Sichuan Province, went into the poor villages of Yunnan Province in search of inspiration. During the journey, one idea attracted him as he watched children playing soccer in a village, which is located around 110 kilometers north of Lijiang.As a gentle wind swept-through the valley, Fei listened to the faraway sounds of horses and children and a clear image began to form in his mind — that a group of children playing soccer on the village roofs (屋顶). That image inspired the opening scene of Football on the Roof, and after taking home the special award in the films market project section of the 2023 China Golden Rooster and Hundred Fowers Film Festival, the film was on across the Chinese mainland on April 20.The film tells the journey of a teenage girl, Aime, who’s crazy about soccer. She has the hope that by advancing to the finals in a competition, her mother, who has left thefr rural hometown to work in a big city, might see her on television. Facing many challenges, she helps her elder sister and her classmates to start a soccer team and asks a fruit seller who used to be a soccer star to coach them. Her determination pays off as she is finally selected to join the team and takes part in an important match.During Fei Yu’s search for inspiration, he met a girl, who was eager to invite the director to her home, showed him around, and used a long wooden stick to pick fresh lemons off a tree as a treat. The director was deeply moved when he realized that the grl, who had been left in the care of a grandfather who’s continually busy with rural difficult tasks, longed to feel more connected toher parents working in a faraway city.She became the source for the female main characters in the movie. Traveling to many areas, from the cities of Lijiang and Kaiyuan, to Chuxiong, Fei Yu and his team chose around 10, 000 students in 203 schools before selecting all main characters.“The shoot has ended, but the young girl’s love for soccer has not. She has found a new direction to shoot for in life. This is very meaningful,” says Fei, adding that he hopes the audience will also find strength and courage to realize their dreams through the film.4．Why did Fei Yu go into the village?A．To teach soccer.B．To help the poor girls.C．To achieve an award.D．To try to find inspiration.5．According to the passage, what do we know about the film?A．Aime goes to the village near Lijiang.B．Aime isn’t chosen to join the soccer team finally.C．The film named Football on the Roof is successful.D．The film tells the journey of a boy’s passion about soccer.6．Why did Aime hope to advance to the finals in a competition?A．To show her love for soccer.B．To leave the rural hometown.C．To be seen by her mother on TV.D．To be coached by a former soccer star.7．When realizing the girl longed to feel more connected to her parents, Fei Yu felt________.A．touched B．interested C．inspired D．amazed8．Which would be the best title for this passage?A．A Beneficial Stress B．A Heartwarming GoalC．A Wonderful Teamwork D．A Meaningful CompetitionTeachers were shocked when ChatGPT appeared a year ago. This AI chat robot can write clear, well-researched essays in response to given questions, forcing educators around the world to rethink their evaluation (测评) methods. A few countries brought back pen-and-paper exams, and some schools asked students to do their homework at school, after learning about a subject athome.There are risks, but some educators think that ChatGPT and other large language models(LLMs)can be powerful learning tools. They could help students by providing a personalized guiding that is available at any time and might be accessible to more students than human teachers would be. Or they could help teachers and students by making information that only exists in the textbooks much easier to find and understand.There are still probkems to be solved. Questions remain about whether LLMscan be made correct and reliable enough to be trusted as learning helpers. It’s too soon to know what their final effect on education will be, but more institutions (研究机构) need to explore ChatGPT’s advantages and dangers, and share what they are leaning, or their students might miss aut on a valuable tool.Despite the risks, educators should not avoid using LLMs. Rather, they need to teach students the chat robot’s strengths and weaknesses and support institutions’ efforts to improve the models for educatton-specific purposes. This could mean building task-specific versions of LLMs that harness their strengths in dialogue and summarization and reduce the risks of a chat robot providing students with inaccurate (不准确的) information or enabling them to cheat.Arizona State University (ASU), for example, developed a platform that enables its members to use LLM-powered chat robots. These robots are instructed to seek answers to users’questions in specific data sets, such as scientific papers or lecture notes. This approach not only makes use of the chat robot’s conversational power, but alsozreduces the chance of errors.As understanding of the LLMs’power and limitations increases, more university-wide plans will certainly appear. Using LLMs without considering their disadvantages will gain the opposite effect. For many educational purposes, error-prone (容易出错的) tools damage students’ability to learn and cannot help students. But some institutions are trying to reduce the LLMs’weaknesses, even aiming to turn those into strengths by, for example, using them to improve students’critical-thinking skills.Educators must be brave to avoid missing a huge opportunity and careful to ensure that institutions everywhere use LLMs in a way that makes the world better, not worse.9．What can we infer about ChatGPT from Paragraph 1?A．It is used in exams by some students.B．It is going to replace human teachers.C．It is especially popular among teachers.D．It improves educators’ evaluation methods. 10．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A．LLMs’possible risks.B．LLMs’powerful tools.C．ILMs’leaning ability.D．LLMs’potential benefits.11．What should students know when using LLMs?A．Their task-specific versions.B．Their strengths and weaknesses.C．Their problems and possible risks.D．Their models for education purposes.12．What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Improve.B．Discover.C．Use.D．Test.13．As for the future of LLMs, the writer is _________A．confused B．hopeful C．unconcerned D．doubtfulMaking employees feel happy and healthy at work is good for many businesses. But it isn’t always an easy thing. A research suggests that just 33% of the U. S. employees consider themselves fully engaged (投身于) at work, while 16% are actively disengaged, and 51% are just showing up.But there is an exception. When it comes to employee engagement, it seems that employees in small companies are doing better. According to the same research, the largest U. S. companies have the lowest levels of engagement, while companies with fewer than 25 employees have the highest. And in one recent report, 75 percent of small business workers surveyed said they were “very” or “extremely” satisfied with their role as a small company employee.Unlike big companies, small companies are often short of resources but the employees can get more surprises there. Small companies offer excellent career opportunities to their employees. The bosses often know their staff very well and understand their personal needs. Employees of small companies are more likely to receive free meals, paid leave, and they can even bring their pets to work.But of course, there’re many other draws in small businesses. One of the top draws is flexible scheduling (弹性工时). Another is being able to really see the fruits of one’s labor.Besides, noncash award is also a big draw. This could be something small that reflects employees’ interests and lifestyles.While a parental leave might lead to some financial problems, small companies may do something to improve it. “It may be impossible for a five person team to be reduced to four for six months,” writes Camilla Velasquez, head of HR management platform Just works. “But it could be possible to allow new parents to take on reduced hours in a work from home environment.” This kind of method has been realized in some small companies.14．What can we infer from Paragraph 2? ______A．Employees can develop better in small companies.B．Employees can earn more money in small companies.C．Employees in big companies are hard to be satisfied.D．Employees in small companies are more engaged at work.15．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? ______A．The benefits of working for small companies.B．The differences between small and big companies.C．What challenges staff in small companies may face.D．Why small companies are short of resources.16．What does the underlined word “draws” in Paragraph 4 mean? ______A．Choices.B．Attractions.C．Difficulties.D．Competitions. 17．What can be most probably inferred from the passage? ______A．Small companies may have more employees with much happiness.B．Big companies should learn from some small companies.C．Employees should have their own hobbies and lifestyles.D．Employers should pay more attention to the staff’s needs.How to Study More EffectivelyNo matter whether you are preparing for some specific course, a professional degree, or an entrance exam, it’s important to maximize study time and improve the efficiency of study.18 You can use a calendar, an app, or a pinboard time table to draft a schedule that works best for you. Include the study time, sleep, and the socializing time in the schedule. Makesure you give yourself more time than you think you need, especially if it’s a subject you struggle with.You can also cut your study time into short sessions. Your most productive studying typically occurs within the first 25 to 30 minutes of hitting books, so try to study in 30 minutes, and take a 5—10 minute break, so that you are able to absorb and consolidate the information.19Studying isn’t only spending hours and hours on list of what you think will be on an exam or quiz. 20 This can be done through a six-step approach: remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and creating. You should focus on a method that will help you achieve a higher level of learning. The higher levels of learning focus on asking questions such as what if, how and why rather than where, what and who.21 Research shows that being tested is not only useful in evaluating how well you have learned something but also valuable for avoiding future mistakes. Answering questions unsuccessfully can help you understand concepts better. If your professor offers you practice exams, take them home and learn from them. Understand why you got certain questions wrong and others right. 22 Force each other to expand answers in order to understand the material better.Following the suggestions to study more effectively will mean shorter and more efficient study sessions, and eventually, better grades!A．You can quiz yourself whenever possible.B．Effective studying starts with the right attitude.C．It is important to study in a smart way and go the extra mile.D．Study with friends or classmates and question each other on the material.E．You are more likely to do well before a quiz when you have time to review.F．Creating a schedule is the first and most important thing to maximize your study time. G．This is why a certain balance should be made and studying time should be cut into shorter sessions.二、完形填空A 24-year-old Seattle resident Benjamin Ramsay, has been presented with the famous Carnegie Medal.

The fee is much less than what I used to spend traveling to a store and home and trying to get everything I bought up to my apartment. Most importantly, the goods are cheaper.For the past couple of months, my receipt(收据) has included another receipt. That receipt can give some money off the price of gas at a local gas station. That is to say, with the receipt, you can pay less when you fill your car up with gas. Through this past weekend, I have collected 12 of these receipts. Each receipt can help to save 6 cents or 7 cents each liter if you buy up to 75 liters. This is prettysweet.I don’t have a car. So today I took all the receipts to my company and gave them to my co-workers. It was fun. We ended up talking about the kinds of cars they had and how much this could save them on a full-up. They even told me they could give me a ride to some place if I needed one.I felt relieved that I was able to give them all away. The deadline(截止日期) on them is at the end of next month and I wanted to make sure they would all be used.There are 13 happy people from this exchange – the 12 I gave receipts to, and me.24.

But one day in early October this year she was not found sitting in her usual place.The kids didn’t see their old friend for a few days. They got worried. Finally, they learned that she had suffered a stroke(中风). “It was kind of heartbreakingto us because she was always there in the past five years,” seventh-grader Axtin Bandewerfhorst said.But she was upset and was obviously still thinking about the 20 boys and girls who passed by her home every day. The day after the bus driver Carol Mitzelfeld brought a bouquet of flowers from the students to Edlen, the kids looked out of the window to find a sign reading “Thank you”.“That really made me happy,” 10th-grader Cheyanne Holt s aid. “It shows how much we mean to her.”So to welcome Edlen home from the hospital, they made her a sign of their own: a photo of the kids waving from inside the bus.“Carol told us that a lot of times she even does not remember her daughter’s name, but s he always remembers to wave to the kids on the bus,” Bandewerfhorst said. “That made me feel really special.”Louise’s husband, Dave Elden, said, “The students’ daily move gives her something to look forward to every day.”Elden has returned home, and is back to waving to the students every day.28.

Having a better education usually means earning more money and studies have proven that those with a college degree earn more than those who graduate from high school.It’s obvious that more education does you good, but what do you need to do to make that happen? First of all, you need to make sure you clear up some misunderstandings(误解). Not all colleges are the same. Before you decide where you go, you first need to decide on what you wish to major in. And don’t restrict your choices. Try to pick out several universities that you want to attend because the more choices you have, the more chances you will have to be admitted to a university.The next step is to find out how much attending a certain university or college charges you. Some places like community colleges charge very low and private universities c harge extremely high. But don’t get discouraged. There are still ways to pay for them. By winning scholarship(奖学金), student aid programs or getting student loans(贷款), you can pay for an education that you have dreamed of.Before you can even attend the college, your information has already gone to it. From your grades to your after-school activities, they must consider everything that you have done during your high school years to see if you are suited to attend their universities. You have to do well in your high school exams and the tests that most universities require. From school clubs to after-school community service programs that you may have volunteered for, they will take into consideration what kind of activities you took part in to have a much better understanding of you.32.The underlined word “restrict” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to __________.A. makeB. limitC. offerD. change33.According to the author you should choose a college that __________.A. charges very littleB. charges very muchC. is the most famousD. you like most34.According to the text, after-school activities will help you __________.A. be admitted to collegeB. make a lot of friendsC. learn to be a volunteerD. learn about society35.In the text the author mainly tells us __________.A. the advantage of going to universityB. how to choose a suitable universityC. how to prepare for college educationD. what we should do in high school 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
