In order to guarantee more study time for Senior Three students, our school has intended to cut down on one PE class per week to make time for math tests. However, I don’t think it is beneficial to us students.As far as I am aware, taking exercise is of equal importance to Senior Three students. First of all, doing sports contributes to building up our strength, thus increasing our resistance. Moreover, we urgently need sports to help to enhance communication among students, avoiding some psychological problems. In addition, by taking part in physical exercise, our minds can get relaxed and refreshed.In conclusion, I strongly suggest that our school should not reduce our PE class so as to promote our all-round development.。

I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”“Am I rich? Pity, no！”I looked at my worn-out slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful. Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.16．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Lady, are you rich?B．A story of Thanksgiving DayC．Don't forget how rich you areD．Does cups and saucers match well?17．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．The girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.

Young Alfred Higgins, the shop-assistant, was ready to go home. Mr. Carr, the boss, stared at him and said: “Hold on, Alfred. Maybe you'd be good enough to take the things out of your pockets and leave them here before you go.” Alfred's face got red. After a little hesitation, he took out what he had stolen. Mr. Carr said, “Maybe I should call your mother and let her know I'm going to have to put you in prison.”Alfred thought his mother would come rushing in, eyes burning with anger. But, to his surprise, she arrived wearing a smile. “Hello, I'm Alfred's mother. Is he in trouble?” she said. Mr. Carr was surprised, too. He had expected Alfred's mother to come in nervously, shaking with fear, asking with wet eyes for a mercy for her son. But no, she was most calm, quiet and pleasant and was making Mr. Carr feel guilty…. Soon Mr. Carr was shaking his head in agreement with what she was saying. “Of course”, he said, “I don't want to be cruel. You are right. Sometimes, a little good advice is the best thing for a boy at certain times in his life and it often takes the youths long time to get sense into their heads.” And he warmly shook Mrs. Higgins's hand.Back home, wi thout even looking at Alfred, she said, “You are a bad luck. It is one thing after another, always has been. Why do you stand there so stupidly? Go to bed.” In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. There was no shame in him, just pridein___________He felt he must tell her how great she was. As he got to the kitchen, he saw his mother drinking a cup of tea. He was shocked by what he saw. His mother's face was a frightened, broken one. It was not the same cool, bright face he saw earlier in the drug store. As she lifted the tea cup, her hand shook. And some of the tea splashed on the table. Her lips moved nervously. She looked very old. He watched his mother without making a sound. The picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth coming to an end. He saw all the troubles he brought his mother in her shaking hand and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him for the first time he had ever really seen his mother.24．Which of the following is probably said by Mrs. Higgins while talking to Mr. Carr? A．“Please, for God's sake, you know, he is just a kid.”B．“I can't believe it! You are treating my son like that!”C．“You know, it takes time for a youth to truly grow up.”D．“Punishment makes sense because it teaches about the law.”25．What does the underlined phrase "his mother's strength"(Para. 3) refer to?A．Mrs. Higgins's calmness and communicating skills.B．Mrs. Higgins's attitude towards parental sufferings.C．Mrs. Higgins's love and care for her son Alfred.D．Mrs. Higgins's greatness as a woman.26．After the incident, young Alfred would probably ________.A．feel ashamed of her motherB．change his attitudes towards lifeC．learn to live an independent lifeD．hate Mr. Carr for hurting her motherPeople are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still h ave no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules early on you keep everything private. That was the great thing about Facebook. You could create your own little private network. Last year. The company changed its privacy rules so that many things; your city, your photo, your friends’ names were set, by default (默认)to be shared with everyone on the Internet.According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information. They have a “less satisfying experience.Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them. At the side of the pages totally, who wants to took at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April. Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the beginning，which is why I’m considering cancelling my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.27．What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?A．It is a website that sends messages to users who want to get married.B．It earns money by putting on advertisements.C．It makes money by selling its users’ personal data.D．It provides loads of information to its users.28．What does the author say about most Facebook users?A．They are unwilling to give up their personal information.B．They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.C．They don’t identify themselves when using the website.D．They care very little about their personal information.29．Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?A．To provide better service to its users.B．To obey the Federal guidelines.C．To improve its users’ connectionD．To expand its business.30．Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?A．He is dissatisfied with its present service.B．He finds many of its users untrustworthy.C．He doesn’t want his personal data badly used.D．He is upset by its frequent rule changes.三、七选五Home on the WayPeople need homes: Children assume their parents’ place as home; boarders call school “home” on weekdays; married couples work together to build new homes; and travelers…have no place to call “home”, at least for a few nights. 31．Don’t they have the right to a home? Of course they do.Some regular travelers take their own belongings like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel like home no matter where they are; some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with the service and attendants; 32．Furthermore, driving a camping car during one’s travel and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like home.And how about keeping relationships while in transit 33．; some send letters and postcards, or even photos；others may just call and say hi, just to let their friends know that they’re still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home. 34．Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found. 35．, we can make the place we stay “home”.A．Hostels provide a clean and safe place to stay while you are traveling the world. B．others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely C．Backpackers in youth hostels may become good friends, even closer than siblings（兄弟姐妹）.D．So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time?E.No matter where you go to in the world, hotels are there, too.F.Some keep contact with their friends via the Internet.G.Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination四、完形填空My father was a self-taught mandolin player.

He chose not to receive treatments so that he could live out the rest of his life 51 dignity. About a week before his death, we asked Dad if he would play the mandolin for us. He made excuses but said "okay". He knew it would probably be the 52 time he would play for us. He tuned up the old mandolin and played a few 53 When I looked around, there was not a 54 eye in the family. We saw before us a quiet man with an inner strength. Dad would never play the mandolin for us again. Dad was doing something he had done all his life, 55 As sick as he was, he was still pleasing others.

In her eyes, I saw pride for the first woman of our family to achieve a university education.My grandmother loved to tell us stories of her first years at primary school on the small island of Chios, Greece: her beautiful handwriting, much praised by her teachers and her good marks. All this changed in Grade 4 when one day my grandmother’s nose started to bleed as she was doing her homework. It scared my great-grandmother, because in those years, many were dying from tuberculosis (结核病). Spending hours indoors studying was associated with growing weak and pale, a sign of that terrible disease. The family prohibited Grandma from finishing primary school and sent her to a local factory.My mother was able to finish high school on Chios. She was an excellent student and her parents encouraged her to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher. Unfortunately, the Second World War clipped her wings. She ended up marrying and looking after her family’s businesses.As I grew up, my mother always urged me to get the university education that she was denied. Sometimes I remember wanting to help her out with cooking or baking. “No,” my mother would say. “Go back to your homework! That takes priority!” My father, following the Greek tradition, would tell her: “Teach Sophia to cook! What is she going to feed her family?” I also remember relatives telling my parents to hurry and arrange a marriage for meas soon as I finished high school. “There is time for all that! Later on! First, she will get a degree!” my mother always hurried to reply.On my university graduation, my mother presented me with my grandma’s special pendant. “But this is the pendant Grandma used to say she would only give me on my engagement day!” I reminded my mother. “A degree is better than an engagement ring; that’s what I told Grandma and she agreed,” my mother replied.4．Why did Grandma fail to continue learning when she was young?A．She suffered from tuberculosis.B．She was forced to drop out of school.C．She dreamt of becoming a teacher.D．She worked very hard to support her family.5．What does the underlined part “clipped her wings” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Damaged her arms.B．Reminded her of her duty.C．Expanded her career path.D．Stopped her from achieving her goal. 6．What can we infer about the author’ s mother from paragraph 4?A．She taught the author cooking skills.B．She faced much pressure for the author.C．She got on poorly with family members.D．She was living up to the Greek traditions.7．What might the author’s mother want to tell her by gifting her the pendant?A．She had already come of age.B．She should remember her origins.C．She should think about getting married.D．She had made the family dream come true.Ask the new artificial intelligence (AI) tool ChatGPT to write an essay about the cause of the American Civil War and you can watch it produce a persuasive term paper in a matter of seconds that has even be enable to pass school exams. That’s one reason why New York City school officials this week started blocking the impressive but controversial writing tool that can generate paragraphs of human-like text. The free tool has been around for just five weeks but is already raising tough questions about the future of AI in education, the tech industry and a host of professions.ChatGPT was launched on Nov. 30 and is part of a new generation of AI systems that can chat, generate readable text on demand and even produce novel images and video based on what they’ve learned from a vast database of digital books, online writings and other media. But unlike previous models of so-called “large language models”, such as Open AI’s GPT-3, launched in 2020, the ChatGPT tool is available to anyone with an Internet connection for free and designed to be more user-friendly. It works like a written dialogue between the AI system and the person asking it questions.Millions of people have played with it over the past month, using it to write silly poems or songs, trying to trick it into making mistakes, or for more practical purposes such as helping compose an email.As with similar systems, ChatGPT can generate convincing prose, but that doesn't mean what it says is factual or logical. Its launch came with little guidance on how to use it, other than a promise that ChatGPT will admit when it's wrong.Many school districts are still struggling to figure out how to set policies on whether and how it can be used. “While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions, it does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic and lifelong success,” said a school’s spokesperson Jenna Lyle from NYC．But there's no stopping a student from accessing ChatGPT from a personal phone or computer at home.8．What can we learn about the term paper from paragraph 1?A．It is a result of the improvement of education.B．It can be rated as passing byschoolteachers.C．It has caught the attention of the public.D．It acts as a model for students to follow. 9．What makes Chat GPT different from GPT-3?A．ChatGPT can create text.B．ChatGPT can edit digital books.C．ChatGPT is free of charge to all.D．ChatGPT can ask its users questions. 10．What is Jenna's attitude towards students’ use of Chat GPT?A．Favourable.B．Tolerant.C．Uncaring.D．Disapproving. 11．What is the best title for the text?A．How Are Schools Handling Chat GPT?B．You Can Check When ChatGPT’s Telling the TruthC．What Is ChatGPT and Why Are Schools Blocking It?D．Students Are Using ChatGPT to Do Their HomeworkSighs have long been seen as a sign of depression, frustration or even despair, leading us to ask the sighing person, “What’s wrong?” A recent study turns that belief on its head. Instead of seeing sighs as sadness or annoyance, recognize them for what they accomplish—stress relief, said Dr David Spiegel. “People think taking a deep breath is the way to ease stress,” he said. “But it turns out that exhaling(呼气)slowly is a better way to calm yourself.”Spiegel and his team conducted a study, comparing three different types of deep breathing with mindfulness meditation(冥想). The goal was to see whether a breathing technique might be as effective as meditation in reducing stress. Researchers sorted 114 people into four groups and asked them to practice mindful meditation or one breathing exercise—box breathing, cyclic hyperventilation or cyclic sighing—for five minutes a day for 28 days. Box breathing requires a person to breathe in, hold, breathe out, and pause equally to the count of four. In cyclic hyperventilation, a person breathes in deeply and out quickly—the inhalations are much longer than the exhalations. In cyclic sighing, a person inhales through the nose until the lungs are halfway full, then pauses briefly. The lungs are then filled completely with another breath, and then the breath is slowly exhaled out of the mouth.The team then assessed moods, anxiety levels and sleep behavior after each breathing or meditation session. Sleep was not affected, the study found. All forms of breathing and meditation increased positive mood and improved anxiety. However, breathing was more effective than meditation, with cyclic sighing making the most difference, the study found.Deliberately taking a slow, deep breath, holding it, and then letting it out slowly activates the parasympathetic nervous system, responsible for controlling how the body rests and digests, Spiegel said. Heart rate slows, blood pressure drops, digestion is improved and the mind begins to wind down and relax.“We believe breathing is a pathway into mind-body control,” he added. “It’s part of the autonomic system like digestion and your heartbeat, but unlike those body functions, you can easily regulate breathing.”12．What is the common belief concerning sighs?A．They help reduce stress.B．They bring bad luck.C．They represent calmness.D．They reflect bad moods.13．What’s paragraph 2 mainly about?A．The research procedures.B．Four breathing techniques.C．The differences between deep breathing and meditation.D．The effect of breathing techniques on stress reduction.14．What can be learned from the experiment?A．Deep breathing increases anxiety levels.B．Meditation is useless at increasing positive moods.C．Cyclic sighing can improve anxiety most effectively.D．Mediation affects sleep more obviously than deep breathing.15．What does Spiegel intend to express in the last paragraph?A．The automatic system of human body is hard to regulate.B．Breathing is as an important body function as heartbeat.C．Mind-body control is of great importance to mental health.D．Controlling breath is an easy way to benefit our health.The age of 18 is when a person legally reaches adulthood. But does this truly stand for our maturity? The very word “ADULT” can be broken into 5 parts containing qualities necessary for your personal development. 16A-ACCOUNTABLE (负责任的)17 But no matter what, our parents would come and take care of us and wouldn’t hold us accountable for these acts. However, as an adult, we are totally in control of our life, including all our decisions and actions.D-DETACHMENT FROM EGO (脱离自我)EGO — A small 3-letter word that has the power to damage a big 12-letter word — RELATIONSHIP. Getting attached to one’s ego has a harmful effect similar to holding a beautiful red rose firmly. 18 So it is time for us to get rooted to the ground and set our ego on fire.U-UNDERSTANDINGIn a world population of about 8 billion, each of us is 100% unique. We communicate with different kinds of people on a daily basis. Collective decisions for various issues involve interacting with people to reach an agreement. It is necessary to understand and respect eachother’s beliefs.L-LISTENWhen we listen to others, thoughts and ideas from them are directly transmitted (传达) to us. 19 Listening effectively with the intention to understand and not to reply is the need of the hour.T-TAKE A STANDWe collect data in the form of parents’ suggestions on careers, friends’ advice on relationships or content that we read on social media. This data should be analyzed and questioned before reaching our own conclusions. 20So you think you are an A-D-U-L-T?A．This will help us to broaden our minds.B．Check and see how many of these we have!C．The stronger a person’s hold, the deeper the wound.D．Our minds should be trained to work in the same manner.E．An information system performs the following functions.F．As a baby, we would cry unnecessarily or even mess up the place.G．It’s time we stop spoon feeding of opinions by others and learn to take our own stand on matters.二、完形填空Leslie Morissette’s son, Graham, was 6 years old when he was diagnosed with leukemiasick children his toys or act silly to make them laugh.” Morissette said. “Graham’s specialwhich really helps them continue their 29 despite hospitalizations and days 30 from school.The robots “transport” children right into the classroom in real time.

宁夏银川一中2023-2024学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Whether you are crazy about cycling or not, when it comes to purchasing a bike, the choice is endless, making it tough to know what to go for. Here are the best buys on the market right now.Boardman CX CompThis is a cross country bike, and it’s so multi-functional that you can handle any terrain(地势) on it, making it a great choice for those wanting to try various cycling subjects. If you leave on the thick tires it comes with, it can ride on various paths and can even handle some less demanding mountain bike routes. Alternatively, put on thin, smooth tires and treat it as a road bike. It has a basket and conics with Shimano Sora gears(变速器), which are outstanding for its price.(￡650，IIalfords)Planet XRT-58 V2Planet X is based in Yorkshire, which means you’d probably have to buy this bike without seeing it. But it’s worth it, because this is an excellent machine at a lower price. Planet X is a highly rated manufacturer and this model comes with Shimano Sora gearing.(￡585，Planet X)Specialized Allez E5Specialized is one of the biggest and most popular brands in cycling, and this is its hugely popular primary road bike. It comes with solid components from front to back and you’ll look great out on the road. (￡75, Evans Cycles)Boardman Road Team CarbonIf you can push your budget (预算) further still, this bike is worth the extra investment. The frame is made entirely from carbon, which is lighter, faster and more comfortable than the composition (复合) metal models above and gives you an all-round and more enjoyable ride. It also means that if you get really serious about cycling, you don’t have to upgrade as quickly as you would with a cheaper bike. Besides, it also comes with Shimano Sora gearing. (￡800, Halfords)1．What is special about Boardman CX Comp?A．Its various functions.B．Its firm tires.C．Its light form.D．Its reasonable price.2．What can we learn about the bikes mentioned in the text?A．Planet XRT-58 V2 has been sold out so far.B．Boardman Road Team Carbon is made by a special material.C．Specialized Allez E5 is designed for senior cyclists.D．Boardman CX Comp is just a mountain bike.3．In which part does the text probably appear in the newspaper?A．Travel.B．Culture.C．Health.D．Advertisement.Marissa Sumathipala, a student at Broad Run High School outside of Washington, D．C, was practicing with her recreational figure-skating team when she crashed with another skater. Her head hit against the ice heavily. Everything went black.Up to that point, Sumathipala’s entire life had centred around her sport -her daily schedule, exercise routine, even her diet. She had hopes of making the 2018 Olympic team. The fall on the ice would change everything, including her direction.Sumathipala had a brain injury and it ended her skating career. Symptoms lasted for years. Her memory felt unclear at times. She’d find herself dizzy, sick, or exhausted. Sumathipala consulted doctors, so many that she “lost count”. But no one had answers.Sumathipala began to realize that there was so much unknown about the brain. She set out to find the answers herself, a path that would eventually bring her to Harvard University, where she’d concentrate in the human brain. Throughout her four years, Surmathipala homed in on brain science, She worked with the McCarroll Lab at Harvard Medical School, helping develop a new method for sequencing synapses (神经突序列) in the brain, which are crucial for memory and learning. Even as an undergraduate, her colleagues were so struck by how mature her thinking already was about science that she quickly became a trusted and valued member of the lab.Also, Sumathipala competed with the Harvard Figure Skating Club all four years. She helped increase its membership and introduced new skaters to the sport she still loves. “I spent a long time struggling with my identity,” she said. “Growing up I was just a skater and then, when I got injured, I had to rebuild my identity. Then I was a scientist. Now, I identify as being both a skater and a scientist.”Reflecting on her years at Harvard, Sumathipala said one of the things she’s most grateful for is seeing how things have come full circle for her.4．What do we know about Sumathipala’s injury?A．It changed her life direction.B．It led to her loss of eyesightC．It stopped her skating eventually.D．It was easily cured by doctors.5．In what way did Sumathipala think she could find the answer to her disease?A．Turning to doctors.B．Go on practicing.C．Doing research on brain herself.D．Rebuilding her identity.6．Which of the following can best describe Marissa Sumathipala?A．creative and sensibleB．quick-minded and imaginativeC．adventurous and self-challengingD．perseverant and ambitious7．What made things come full circle for Sumathipala?A．Deep love for figure skating.B．The praise from her lab colleagues.C．Her determination to achieve life goals.D．Good relationship with new skaters.Chatting in her bright two bedroom flat, Shirley Meredeen, aged 91, doesn’t hesitate in describing the benefits of living here. “It keeps my brain going. We are all very active because there is so much to do...We’re really lucky to have such a supportive community.”In 1998, Meredeen first heard of the concept of cohousing as developed in the Netherlands and decided to copy its model in the UK and create the Older Women Cohousing (OWCH) with her friends. But they didn’t imagine that it would be an 18-year struggle. The novelty of the idea coupled with the lack of data to prove the social and economic benefits made it difficult for them to access public money. Councils always compared their idea to sheltered accommodation and saw it as a burden for their already overstretched budgets.In fact, the community-led housing is a departure from the conventional understanding of later life. Now, the community comprises 25 flats as well as a shared kitchen, meetingroom, laundry, garden, car park and a guest room. People live together based on interdependence. They can take control of their future instead of relying on their families or care homes. All the neighbours look out for each other, not after each other, which means accompanying to medical appointments, doing the local shopping, having family contacts in preparation for an emergency... But the limits of such informal care among residents still need to be worked out.OWCH has paved the way to alternative living arrangements in later life and the support for community-led housing is starting to emerge in the form of guidance and funding, according to UK Cohousing Network.8．What do we know about Meredeen?A．She first tried cohousing in the Netherlands.B．She is a regular visitor to OWCH.C．She is a pioneer in elderly care service.D．She founded OWCH single-handed.9．Why did it take such a long time to set up OWCH?A．It didn’t benefit social economy.B．It didn’t keep up with the time.C．It called for careful budgeting.D．It was hard to get public funding. 10．Which is probably the reason why seniors choose OWCH?A．They are more independent.B．They are responsible for each other.C．They receive more care services.D．They can rely on their relatives. 11．What is the purpose of the text?A．To describe an ambitious figure.B．To introduce a new lifestyle of seniors.C．To ensure elderly people’s welfare.D．To inspire the aged to achieve theirdreams.The rise of the robots has raised the possibility of a future where there is simply less wok for humans to do. To tired office workers, a world where we all have a bit more leisure time sounds rather nice. Yet what really matters is how work will be distributed across the workforce.The recent past shows there is no reason to believe it will be evenly (均衡地) spread. The length of the average working week in the UK has declined steadily from about 59 hours in the mid-19th century to 32 hours in 2009. But averages hide a lot.While trends among women have been stable, there have been big shifts among men. Males in well-paid full-time employment are now working slightly longer hours on average than two decades ago. Meanwhile, men in full-time employment at the bottom of the wage ladder are working much less.On top of that, the number of low-paid men who work part-time has increased sharply. Twenty years ago, one in 20 men with low hourly wages worked part-time; today it is one in five. Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies shows this phenomenon is only happening among the low-paid. In better-paying jobs, part-time men are still fairly rare. Gender roles within families might tend to be similar too. Low-paid men may be choosing to shoulder more childcare responsibilities so their partners can return to work.Yet it is clear that the distribution of work will matter to people. Britain has both overemployment and underemployment problems: official data show 3.4m people in Britain want to work more hours while 3.2m want to work few hours for less pay. The underemployed are likely to be waiters or cleaners. The overemployed are most likely to be doctors or chief executives.
