From coast to coast, theme parks are opening exciting new rides for people.Legoland New York ResortOver Memorial Day weekend, Legoland opened its newest attraction: a Lego-themed water playground where families can play water, slide and beat the heat. There is also a nearby changing area so you can take off your wet swimsuit when you’re ready to head for the park’s land-based attractions.Universal Studios HollywoodThough the land has only one ride, Super Nintendo World has more than enough to keep you busy after you race to the finish. Throughout the land, there are interactive challenges where you can collect digital coins and try to secure a top score. You will also find all the souvenirs and clothing you need to complete your experience.Busch Gardens Tampa BayThe Serengeti Flyer swing ride is currently the world’s tallest and fastest ride of its kind.

He happened to look up and saw Zeus fly by. The king of gods was carrying a lovely river spirit (小精灵) in his arms.“That Zeus,” sighed (叹气) King Sisyphus. “What a trouble-maker!”Soon after, the river god Asopus flew by. “Sisyphus! Have you seen my daughter?” he asked.“If you give my city a source of fresh water, I will tell you what I saw,” King Sisyphus shouted back. Immediately, a clear stream (水流) of fresh water appeared.“Zeus took her that way,” the king pointed.The king knew Zeus would be angry when he found out what he had done. But Corinth badly needed a source of fresh water. And finally, it had one.Sure enough, Zeus was very angry. He told his brother Hades (the god of the underworld) to take Sisyphus to the underworld immediately!“When they tell you I am dead, do not put a gold coin under my tongue,” King Sisyphus said quietly to his wife. As a good wife, she did exactly as the king had told her.Because Sisyphus was an important person, Hades himself met him at the River Styx, the entrance to the underworld. Because no gold coin was placed under his tongue(舌头), the king arrived as a poor beggar.“Where is your gold coin?” Hades asked. “How can you pay for a trip across the River Styx and arrive in the underworld?”King Sisyphus hung his head in shame. “I had a terrible wife. She didn’t give me anything after I had died.”“Go right back there and teach that woman some manners!” Hades raised his voice. He then sent Sisyphus back to Earth. The king became alive again.Sisyphus and his wife laughed when he told her about the experience. But he never told it to anyone else. You never know when the gods are listening!4.What was Sisyphus was doing when Zeus flew by with a river spirit?A.Rebuilding Corinth.B.Chatting with his wife.C.Asking Asopus for help.D.Looking for a source of water. 5.What did Zeus decide to do when he knew what Sisyphus had done?A.Zeus decided to destroy Corinth.B.Zeus decided to end Sisyphus’ life.C.Zeus decided to make Corinth drier.D.Zeus decided to kill Sisyphus’ wife. 6.What did one need in order to cross the River Styx, according to the article,?A.A good wife.B.A golden boat.C.Some money.D.Some water. 7.Which of the following statements is the most probable ending of the story?A.Sisyphus lived happily with his wife.B.Sisyphus taught his wife some manners.C.Sisyphus was sent to the underworld again.D.Sisyphus had to find a fresh water source again.The next time you have cheese, remember the French scientist Louis Pasteur who discovered that bad milk, and many diseases are caused by bacteria(细菌).Louis Pasteur is known as the father of microbiology. In his lifetime, he not only proved that bacteria are the cause of diseases, but also discovered the process of vaccination (接种疫苗) which has saved billions of lives.When Pasteur worked with chickens that were suffering from cholera(霍乱) during his experiments, he accidentally spread cholera to his chickens. Pasteur’s chickens became mildly sick but did not die. This was strange as every chicken that came near cholera earlier had died. He realized soon that the cholera had become weak. By the time he tried again, the chickens he had cured earlier did not get cholera anymore. He realized that a weak cholera helped his chickens develop an antibody against it.Later, Pasteur went on to try this on cows, pigs and dogs. All his research helped him develop different vaccines. We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of bacteria into our body. Our body reacts by creating antibodies to fight the bacteria. Now, when our body comes across the same bacteria which are much stronger, it can fight them off.Louis Pasteur received numerous awards for the advancement of biology, chemistry, and medicine. He founded the Pasteur Institute to study diseases. It was the first university to teach microbiology and today there are 32 institutes across 29 countries. For every childvaccinated against a deadly disease, we have Louis Pasteur to thank.8.What do we know about Louis Pasteur?A.His discoveries weren’t used at his time.B.He discovered the connection between bacteria and diseases.C.He was a professor at the Pasteur Institute.D.His discoveries brought many profits and awards to him.9.What can we learn from his experiment with chickens?A.Cholera was not a deadly disease then.B.Pasteur spread cholera to chickens on purpose.C.All chickens suffered from cholera died at last.D.The weakened cholera couldn’t kill the living creatures10.What is the function of the process of vaccination?A.It builds up people’s body.B.Without it, people will die.C.It improves people’s ability to avoid diseases.D.It can kill all the diseases and make the sick bealthy.11.Why does the author write the passage?A.Because he wants to honour Louis Pasteur and his contribution to the world.B.Because he wants to show the discoveries of the vaccination.C.Because be wants to call on children to learn from Louis PasteurD.Because he wants to introduce an important invention in microbiology.Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots which are believed to help the animals hide from their enemies. Just like no two humans have the same fingerprints, each giraffe has its own special pattern of spots. However, a Tennessee zoo made headlines recently after it welcomed one of the world’s most uncommon giraffes.On July 31, a baby giraffe was born at Brights Zoo with light brown fur which is a reticulated (网状的) giraffe, one of the four different kinds of giraffes. Unlike most giraffes, she was born without spots, a unique feature of the reticulated giraffe. At six feet tall, this baby giraffe is growing well under her mother’s care. She shows typical baby giraffe behavior, such as eating rocks.Experts said the young giraffe was the only single-colored reticulated giraffe livinganywhere on the planet. The last time this happened was 1972 in Japan. A giraffe’s pattern of spots is created when the animal is still growing inside its mother. That means that this giraffe will never have spots.“The new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. Being single-colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. David Bright, who runs the zoo, “It will easily be a key target for poachers (偷猎者) because she’s so unusual.”Brights Zoo stressed that reticulated giraffes had already become imperiled. In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, the number has been cut by more than 50%. Only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain.This brown giraffe’s birth is not only a rare and fascinating event, but also an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges faced by giraffes in the wild. By supporting efforts like this, we can contribute to the conservation of these large creatures and ensure their survival for generations to come.12.What do we know about the spots of giraffes?A.They help protect giraffes.B.They are the same pattern.C.They look like giraffes’ footprints.D.They appear on giraffes occasionally. 13.What makes the young giraffe born at Brights Zoo special?A.Its extremely large size.B.Its light brown fur.C.Its unusual eating habit.D.Its absence of spots.14.What does the underlined word “imperiled” mean in paragraph 5?A.Recognized.B.Endangered.C.Doubled.D.Balanced. 15.Which word can best describe the birth of the young giraffe?A.Awkward.B.Worrying.C.Meaningful.D.Foreseeable.二、七选五V olunteering your time to support a cause you like is something you will never regret.better understand how you fit into the world around you.17 In fact, spending time enriching your community is a great way to broaden your perceptions of the world.

Students from a jewellery school once came to Brush’s studio, a loft in mid-Manhattan, awed to be meeting a figure who, to them, was a worker of miracles.For 45 years in that loft, he had pursued his calling. His wife Olivia was the only company. He produced hundreds of objects of all sorts, most of them exquisite and many astonishingly small. Rather than use electricity, he laboured alone in a forest of antique machines and when tools frustrated him, he made his own, displaying them in cupboards as art in themselves.Above all else, he worked in gold. His obsession took fire when at 13 he saw an Etruscan gold bowl in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The ancient technique of applying gold beads as fine assand-grains to a curved gold surface without solder (焊接), was stunning, but so was the lightness of spirit.He resolved then that he would make such a bowl, and gold became the study of his life. Simply to watch it melt, turn to red-hot and white-hot, then glow purple, was magical. To hold pure gold grain and let it move slowly through his fingers restored his calm of spirit. His chief motivation, he said, was to understand the material and, through that, himself. He wondered why his heart had beaten so fast in the museum that day. Gold in particular had a message for him. His contact with this glorious metal might focus all his attention and help him to hear it.He developed delicate craftsmanship, with each object virtually a museum piece. For Daniel Brush, he loved the idea that one might take a piece made by Brush out of a pocket, let its beauty pass from mind to mind, and smile. That too was what its maker was after.24. What can we learn about Daniel Brush?A. Students visited him regularly.B. He began to live in his loft in 1975.C. He tended to use ancient crafts to produce objects.D. Most objects he produced were of a surprisingly small size.25. What is the main reason for his lifelong study of gold?A. He wanted to learn more about both gold and himself.B. He wondered why his heart had beat fast in the museum.C. His calm was restored when gold grain moved through fingers.D. Gold had a particular message for him and he was eager to hear it.26. Which of the following can best describe Daniel Brush?A. Stubborn.B. Wealthy.C. Dedicated.D. Lonely.27. What does the author try to emphasize in the last paragraph?A. Brush’s valuable works.B. The admirers Brush expected.C. Brush’s desire for fame.D. The artistic ideal Brush pursued.CWe all know that unpleasant feeling when we’re talking about something interesting and halfway through our sentence we’re interrupted. But was that really an interruption? The answer depends on whom you ask, according to new research led by Katherine Hilton from Stanford University.Using a set of controlled audio clips (录音片段), Hilton surveyed 5,000 American English speakers to better understand what affects people’s perceptions of interruptions. She had participants listen to audio clips and then answer questions about whether the speakers seemed to be friendly and engaged, listening to one another, or trying to interrupt.Hilton found that American English speakers have different conversational styles. She identified two distinct groups: high and low intensity speakers. High intensity speakers are generally uncomfortable with moments of silence in conversation and consider talking at the same time a sign of engagement. Low intensity speakers find it rude to talk at the same time and prefer people speak one after another in conversation.The differences in conversational styles became evident when participants listened to audio clips in which two people spoke at the same time but were agreeing with each other and stayed on topic, Hilton said. The high intensity group reported that conversations where people spoke at the same time when expressing agreement were not interruptive but engaged and friendlier than the conversations with moments of silence in between speaking turns. In contrast, the low intensity group perceived any amount of simultaneous (同时) chat as a rude interruption, regardless of what the speakers were saying.“People care about being interrupted, and those small interruptions can have a massive effect on the overall communicatio n,” Hilton said. “Breaking apart what an interruption means is essential if we want to understand how humans interact with each other.”28. What does Hilton’s research focus on?A. What interruptions mean to people.B. Whether interruption is good or not.C. How to avoid getting interrupted.D. Why speakers interrupt each other.29. What do participants of the study need to do?A. Record an audio clip.B. Answer some questions.C. Listen to one another.D. Have a chat with a friend.30. What do low intensity speakers think of simultaneous chat?A. It’s important.B. It’s interesting.C. It’s inefficient.D. It’s impolite.31. What can we learn from Hilton’s research?A. Human interaction is complex.B. Communication is the basis of life.C. Interruptions promote thinking.D. Language barriers will always exist.DSwot satellite is scheduled to be launched Thursday morning to conduct a comprehensive surveyof Earth’s vital resource. By using advanced microwave radar technology it will collect height-surface measurements of oceans, lakes and rivers in high-definition detail over 90% of the globe. It’s really the first time to observe nearly all water on the planet’s surface.The major mission is to explore how oceans help to minimize climate change by absorbing atmospheric heat and carbon dioxide in a natural process. Oceans are estimated to have absorbed more than 90% of the extra heat trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere by human-caused greenhouse gases. Swot will scan the seas from the orbit and precisely measure fine differences in surface elevations (高度) around smaller currents and eddies (漩涡), where much of the oceans’ decrease of heat and carbon is believed to occur. “Studying the mechanism will help climate scientists answer a key question: What is the turning point at which oceans start releasing, rather than absorbing, huge amounts of heat back into the atmosphere and speed up global warming, rather than limiting it,” said Nadya Shiffer, Swot’s program scientist.By comparison, earlier studies of water bodies relied on data of rivers or oceans taken at specific points, or from satellites that can only track measurements along a one-dimensional line, requiring scientists to fill in data gaps through extrapolation (外推法). Thanks to the radar instrument, Swot can scan through cloud cover and darkness over wide ranges of the Earth. This enables scientists to accurately map their observations in two dimensions regardless of weather or time of day and to cover large geographic areas far more quickly than was previously possible.“Rather than giving us a line of elevations, it’s giving us a map of elevations, and that’s just a total game changer,” said Tamlin Pavelsky, Swot freshwater sc ience leader.32.What does the underlined expression “vital resource” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Technology.B. Climate.C. Oceans.D. Water.33.What is the major mission of Swot?A. To explore the influences of greenhouse gases.B. To explain the consequence of global warming.C. To identify the causes of water absorbing heat and CO2.D. To study the mechanism of oceans influencing climate.34.What makes it possible for Swot to measure precisely?A.

陕西省延安中学2023-2024学年高一下学期第二次月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Four Places to Listen to Free Music OnlinePandoraPandora is a popular Internet radio service that lets users create personalized stations and listen to music. To use Pandora, you will have to create an account using your email address and a password. As you find music you like, you can save songs to your collection. However, you can’t download any specific tracks to your computer or phone.LiveOneOn LiveOne, you’ll mostly find big artists, bands and songs along with interviews and news. While you won’t be able to stream all songs on demand for free due to licensing restrictions (限制), you will be able to create a station of similar tracks/artists from nearly any song. There’s a tab (标签) named “My Library” where you can save and share your favourite music.iHeartRadioiHeartRadio is a great website or app for listening to live radio stations. You can find local stations or check out stations from around the country. You won’t have to create an account to begin listening on iHeartRadio. but you can make one for free to save stations and playlists. Whether you decide to create an account or not. you won’t be able to download music from iHeartRadio.SpotifyIf you’re looking for free music online, you’ve most likely come across Spotify already. This resource is great for streaming popular hits while discovering new favourites. You can keep track of what you’ve recently played, and “favourite” songs. In addition to music. Spotify offers playlists of its most-played songs and information on local upcoming concerts.1.Which is a must before using Pandora?A.Saving some songs.B.Creating an account.C.Calling other users.D.Sending a private email.2.What can you do on “My Library” of LiveOne?A.Download popular songs.B.Make new friends online.C.Share your favourite music.D.Discover radio stations.3.What is special about Spotify?A.It offers news on local upcoming concerts.B.It requires no membership card.C.It allows users to download music for free.D.It features a station of similar artists.Binge-watching (刷剧) is when a person watches more than one episode of a show in a row. With developments in the speed and connectivity of the Internet, increases in technology and the rise of on-demand entertainment companies, people can now have their favorite shows stream (流播) directly to their television at their convenience.This behavior is nothing new. In fact, binge-watching has been officially listed in dictionaries since 2015. The entertainment companies recognize this behavior and many take steps to encourage it. Often, instead of releasing each episode on a week-by-week basis, an entire series will become available concurrently. Once the episode finishes, many platforms will display pop-ups with “you might like” suggestions, or will automatically play the next episode.However, recent research suggests that out of the more than half of British adults who watch more than one episode of a show back-to-back (一集接一集地), almost a third have admitted missing sleep or becoming tired as a result; and 25% have neglected their household chores (家务活). Next we’ll be missing work!Bingeing has other connections — binge eating, binge drinking and binge smoking. All of them are often associated with a lack of control and a possible route to addiction. Lindsey Fussell, consumer group director, said, “The days of waiting a week for the next episode are largely gone, with people finding it hard to resist (抗拒) watching multiple episodes around the house or on the move.” If people find binge-watching hard to resist, are we witnessing the birth of a new type of addiction?The countless number of information and entertainment that television and online media can bring us is, many would say, a good thing. However, when the activity begins to bleed into other areas, causing us to stop functioning, then it becomes a problem. So, what’s the answer? Moderation! Neither a tiny amount, nor too much. After all, as the old proverb says, “A little ofwhat you fancy does you good.”4.How did the writer develop the first paragraph?A.By giving a definition.B.By telling a story.C.By listing some examples.D.By analyzing the cause and effect. 5.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “concurrently” in Paragraph2?A.For convenience.B.At the same time.C.In detail.D.Free of charge.6.What Lindsey said in Paragraph 4 implies that ______.A.people can’t control their feelings B.people can’t resist the temptation of Bingeing C.people have no patience to do work D.people are addicted to waiting for a new episode7.What advice did the writer give at last?A.To keep online media from stopping functioning.B.To enjoy entertainment as much as possible.C.To learn life lessons from the episodes.D.To watch episodes in a moderate way.This week, Google researchers published a paper describing results from an AI tool built to create music. The tool, called MusicLM, is not the first AI music tool to be launched. But the examples Google provided demonstrate musical creative ability based on a limited set of descriptive words.Several different music examples produced by MusicLM were published online. Some of the generated music came from just one-or two-word descriptions, such as “jazz”, “rock” or “techno (高科技舞曲)”. The tool also created other examples from more detailed descriptions containing whole sentences.In one example, Google researchers included these instructions to MusicLM, “It is a soundtrack of a game. It is fast-paced and upbeat, with a catchy electric guitar riff (反复乐节). The music is repetitive and easy to remember, but with unexpected sounds ...” In the resulting recording, the music seemed to keep very close to the description. The team said the more detailed the description was, the better the system could attempt to produce it.The MusicLM model operates similarly to the machine-learning systems used by ChatGPT. ChatGPT and MusicLM both require powerful computers to operate complex machine-learning models. The San Francisco-based company OpenAI launched ChatGPT late last year. ChatGPT has recently received a lot of attention because of its ability to generate complex writings and other content from just a simple description in natural languages. Such tools can produce human-like results because they are trained on huge amounts of data. Many different materials are fed into the systems to permit them to learn complex skills to create realistic works.However, the MusicLM researchers said there were some risks linked to the new tool. One of the biggest issues the researchers identified was biases (偏好) present in the training data. A bias might be including too much of one side and not enough of the other. The researchers said this raised a question about appropriateness for music generation for cultures underrepresented in the training data.8.What can we learn about MusicLM?A.It is the first AI music tool to be launched.B.It requires detailed descriptions of full sentences.C.It creates music based on simple descriptive words.D.It generates complex writings from a simple description.9.What is the similarity between ChatGPT and MusicLM?A.They can take the place of musicians.B.They have gained commercial success.C.They don't have any practical use in life.D.They are based on huge amounts of data. 10.Which of the following is an issue of the MusicLM model?A.Creating music with strong biases.B.Requiring too much training data.C.Being difficult for some people to use.D.Producing music works with no creativity. 11.What would be the best title for the text?A.The future of humans with AI B.A new AI tool to make musicC.Music created by some AI tools D.AI and its function in culture developmentCyber-bullying (网络欺凌) may take place in the online world, but it is no less damaging than in the real world. The Internet has become a kindness desert, a place where few flowers bloom. Bullying is pretty common. 12 According to those bullied, they’re usually seen asbeing different from the crowd. They are unique.Being bullied is a frustrating and painful experience. Online bullying can really hurt others, and it can have serious consequences. 13 Some people have even committed suicide because they were harassed (侵扰) online and didn’t think it would ever stop. Here are some valuable tips to help you address a bully and protect yourself in a safe way.Don’t blame yourself. 14 It’s only the bully’s fault, so don’t blame yourself for his or her shortcomings.Stay away from bullies. Bullies hope you interact with them so that they have an excuse to keep picking on you. When the bully starts orally attacking you, remove yourself from the situation if you can, simply by walking away.15 Try as you might to ignore the bullies when they are saying ugly things about you. Remind yourself that you are a great person and that nothing the bullies say matters.Speak out. Nobody has the right to make you feel unsafe, uncomfortable or unhappy. Find someone you can talk to, your teacher or your parent and tell them what’s going on. 16 Follow these tips and you should feel well-equipped to deal with your bullies the next time they attack.A.Keep track of bullies.B.Be sure you’re wonderful.C.Adults can offer help if they know about the problem.D.Being bullied can make you feel alone, scared, and hopeless.E.Your parents are willing to help you when recognizing your problem.F.If you are being bullied, it’s essential to know that it is never your fault.G.Studies have found that nearly one-third of all students are bullied each year.二、完形填空The caring employees at a Costco store near Cleveland, Ohio, are being honoured as heroes.
