Wind is one lf our cleanest and richestpower sources ,as well as one of the oldest.Evidence shows that windmills(风车)began to beused in ancient Iran back in the seventh centuryBC. They were first introduced toEuropeduring the 1100s,when armies returned from theMiddle East with knowledge of using windpower.For many centuries, people used windmills togrind(磨碎)wheat into our or pump water fromdeep underground .Whenelectricity wasdiscovered in the late 1800s, people living inremote areas began to use them to produceelectricity. This allowed them to have electriclights and radio. However, by the1910s whenelectricity was available to people in almost allareas of the United States, windmills were rarelyused.During the 1970s,people started becoming页 26 共页 10 第concerned about the pollution that is createdwhen coal and gas are burned to produceelectricity .People also realized that the supplyof coal and gas would not last forever .Then,wind was rediscovered ,though it means highercost.

Throughout time differentbuildings have been constructed on the same site.The Palace of Placentia, an English RoyalPalace built in 1447, no longer exists apart froma few remains under the present buildings.The grand buildings on the South Bank of theThames at Greenwich were designed by SirChristopher Wren, most famous for St. Paul'sCathedral. The buildings were finally completedin 1745, although some parts started to be usedas early as 1705. They're now part of auniversity — having served as a naval（海军）hospital and a naval college and the setting for several cinemas.But the buildings stand on a site which has amuch longer history, of which now only a part页 26 共页 15 第remains that is below the ground. For nearlytwo hundred years, from around 1450 to 1650,Greenwich was one of the main royal palaces ofEngland. Some of the most famous Englishrulers, such as Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, notonly lived there, but also were born there.Henry VIII put an armory（兵工厂）there, andthere were also gardens, a greatfountain (喷泉)and a mass of buildings. The Palace was also ina strategic location, because at the time eitherside of Greenwich on the Thames wereimportant Royal Dockyards (船厂). Eventually, though, the Palace fell into disrepair.In 1664, the King at the time, Charles II,decided to replace it with completely newbuildings in a modern style. Only a cellar (地窖)from the former Royal Palace now remains,under one of the new buildings. Its red brick,typical of the sixteenth century, contrasts (对比)sharply with thewhite stone above it.Would you like to join us to have a good view ofGreenwich?页 26 共页 16 第63.

Different Native American groupshad different cultures. The first Europeans inthe United States were from England andHolland, but immigrants came from allEuropeancountries.Manypeoplealsoimmigrated from Asia and Africa. Sadly, manyAfricans were brought to the United States asslaves. Many immigrants come from LatinAmerica too. Today, the UnitedStates has peoplefrom more cultures than ever. In the 19th century, people spoke of the UnitedStates as a “melting pot.” People thought that allimmigrates should forget their native culturesand languages and becomeEnglish-speakingAmericans. They felt that people shouldassimilate - join American culture. However, noteveryone wanted to assimilate completely. Many页 26 共页 18 第people tried to keep parts of their cultures, suchas foods, customs, and languages. However, theirchildren often forgot their parents' orgrandparents' language. But most Americans,even those whose families have been here a longtime, can tell the countries their relatives camefrom. And of course, newimmigrants take greatpride in their culture and language.For all of these reasons, melting pot is no longera good way to describe the United States.Instead, people now call the United States a“salad bowl.” They say salad bowl because in asalad, you can still see all of the individual parts(lettuce, tomato, and so on), but all the differentparts mixed together and begin to take on theflavor of one another.67. Which of the following is the keyinformation the writer wants to tell us in thefirst paragraph?A. There used to be many groups of NativeAmericans.B. Englishmen were among the first to settle in页 26 共页 19 第America.C. Asians and Africans also immigrated toAmerica.。

Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs to develop social and professional skills in a safe environment.The cafe was the idea of Pennsylvania mom Maureen Stanko, a teacher, fitness instructor, and musician, who was concerned about her son Nick, who has autism (孤独症) and food allergies, and what he would be able to do after graduation. In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about Nick’s future is what keeps Stanko up at night.Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who had dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together to make this a reality. Two years later, the So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe was born. It employed 63 people and 80 percent of them have some form of disability.The cafe is more than just a space to work; it’s also a place for people with disabilities and their families to dine. “We’d never even taken Nick to a restaurant before because we wouldn’t spend all this money to eat out to be completely stressed out,” Stanko said. “This cafe has taught Nick how to sit in a restaurant. And now we have a place to go, where if he stands up and starts hopping or clapping, nobody cares.”The inclusive cafe has made a real difference in people’s lives. One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, who is hearing impaired, said, “If you told me two years ago that I would be a server, I wouldn’t believe you. But now I have gained so much self-confidence. A lot of employees here have changed so much; it’s just mind-blowing.”4．Why did Stanko and Tyler Kammerle establish the cafe?A．To serve people with various abilities.B．To provide a place for family occasions.C．To instruct graduates in professional skills.D．To offer employment to youth with special needs.5．What was Stanko’s concern about taking Nick to a restaurant?A．The cost of dining out.B．The noisy customers in restaurants.C．The lack of an inclusive environment.D．The food allergies Nick is suffering from.6．How has working at the cafe affected Lauren Oppelts?A．She has taken to socializing.B．She has grown more positive.C．She has become experienced in cooking.D．She has recovered from her hearing disability.7．Which of the following best describes Stanko?A．Caring and responsible.B．Ambitious and devoted.C．Determined and sensitive.D．Tough and reliable.An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease — a condition where the heart’s arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood flow to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research.A study, published in the European Heart Journal, monitored everyday surroundings, including the quality of roads, buildings, and green spaces, and the role they play in determining heart health. Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. They found that these neighbourhood characteristics could account for 63% of the differences in heart disease risk from one community to another.The discovery stems from analysing more than half a million AI street view images across US cities, using computer vision to identify and interpret details that might go unnoticed by the human eye. The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods.“Undoubtedly, there is a vast amount of social, economic and environmental data set,” said one of the study's authors, Prof Sanjay Rajagopalan. “However, there still remain significant gap s in our knowledge regarding unique environmental aspects of data that are currently beyond human comprehension. This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable uniqueunderstanding of the physical and built environment.”By employing AI, researchers have been able to examine the details of neighbourhoods’ environment. The study employed computer vision technology, including applications used in medical imaging and autonomous driving, to identify details and then interpret them to make predictions or decisions.“We are getting to a place in human civilization where traditional approaches that have been used are rather limited and the use of AI to enhance human understanding is going to be critically important at solving complex problems,” Prof Rajagopalan said.8．What is the finding of the study?A．How people can prevent heart diseases.B．How environments affect heart health.C．How AI can reduce heart disease risks.D．How the heart's arteries are blocked. 9．What can the finding of the study help to do?A．Promote computer technology.B．Reduce air and water pollution.C．Design green neighbourhoods.D．Advertise for an AI company.10．Why was computer vision used in the study?A．The researchers had no environmental data.B．It had solved some environmentalproblems.C．People ignored the environment they live in.D．It helped people understand theenvironment.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．The development of AI for hospitals B．The medical use of a street view toolC．The insight into healthy neighbourhoods D．The link between the heart and environmentForests have been embraced as a natural climate solution, due to their ability to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots. But a new study confirms widespread doubts about the potential for most forests in the Western US to help control climate change.Published in Earth’s Future, the paper analyzed trends in carbon storage across the American West from 2005 to 2019. Led by Jazlynn Hall, a forest and landscape ecologist at Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the team found that throughout most of the region, climate changeand fires may be causing forests to store less carbon, not more.“There’s a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions,” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below 1.5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it’s changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets.”The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades. “These challenges have the potential to compromise carbon storage capacity and weaken our ability to mitigate climate change, Hah cautions.By providing a fire-new view of threats at landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site-specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复原力). They also identify the remaining areas with the lowest risk and highest potential to store carbon, such as the Pacific Northwest.“Our study develops new methods to carefully estimate forest-carbon storage at a regional level, track it over time, and find out the causes of changes over time,” said Hall. He expects the methods will be useful in monitoring carbon storage levels going forward, as well as assessing the carbon impacts of management efforts such as forest thinning and planned burning.12．What does the underlined phrase “soak up” in paragraph 1 mean?A．Put down.B．Take in.C．Bring up.D．Give out. 13．Why was the study conducted?A．To find the best forests for carbon storage.B．To promote forests’ carbon storage capacity.C．To assess the current situation of forests.D．To measure the carbon released into forests. 14．What can we say about the future trend of Western forests?A．Carbon loss will speed up.B．They will become more resilient.C．They will store more carbon.D．They will have no impact on climate. 15．What is the primary function of Hall’s framework for forest management?A．Predicting future forest growth rates.B．Identifying high- risk areas for protection.C．Mapping all the forests in the Western US.D．Helping managers adapt strategies to forests.I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. 16 Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned.17 I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words.So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. 18 See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in.Here is what makes teaching so great for the person doing the teaching. Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. 19 It pushes you to do what you are encouraging and teaching others to do. I am totally convinced this will, and does, work that way for everyone.What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. 20A．It’s our ability to teach other people.B．We just need to talk and teach others about it.C．Doing this has been changing and helping my life for years now.D．Please, think deeply about this and then put it into practice in any way you can.E．Be sure to write down your goals and objectives as well so you can stay on track.F．The knowledge you share, whether spoken or written, is like a truth drug for the mind. G．So, why not teach and share what you know and help yourself do better and better at these things?二、完形填空Five years ago, Anna Lee, a cultural worker from Washington, D．C．, bought a vase for $3.99 at a thrifty shop.

湖南省长沙市第一中学2023-2024学年高三上学期月考试卷（一）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Dramatic progress has been witnessed in the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which benefits from those great contributions some ancient famous doctors made ant some experience they accumulated. The following three stand out among the ancient famous doctors.Hua TuoHua Tuo (145—208), famous physician of the late Eastern Han dynasty, also named Fu, was born at Qiao County in Peiguo (now Bozhou, Anhui Province). He led a simple life, away from fame and fortune. He would rather become a traveling physician for ordinary people.Hua Tuo was an expert in several medical fields, such as internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics and acupuncture. He was the first person to perform surgery with the aid of anesthesia (by applying Ma Fei San, a herbal anesthetic he invented) some 1,600 years before Europeans did.Zhang ZhongjingZhang Zhongjing (150—219), also known as Zhang Ji, was one of the most distinguished Chinese physicians during the later years of the Eastern Han dynasty. He lived in today’s Nanyang in Henan Province. He was known as the “medical sage” by later generations due to his outstanding contributions to TCM.During his time, with warlords (军阀) fighting for their own territories, many people were infected with fertility, an illness caused by fever. Zhang’s family was no exception. The experience stimulated his motivation in medicine. He learned medicine by studying from his town’s fellow Zhan Bozu, absorbing previous medicinal literature, collecting many prescriptions; and finally writing the medical masterpiece Shanghan Zabing Lun. Unfortunately shortly after its publication the book was lost during wartime.Li ShizhenLi Shizhen (1518—1593) was a famous medical scientist the Ming dynasty. He loved medicine from an early age and succeeded his ancestors as a doctor. He not only paidattention to accumulating experience in curing diseases, but also visited the famous mountains where medicinal materials were produced.On this basis, it took 27 years to compile (编著) the pharmaceutical masterpiece, Compendium of Materia Medica, which is known as the “Encyclopedia of Ancient China” and has made an important contribution to the development of classical medicine China. 1．What do the three famous doctors mentioned in the passage have in common?A．Their books never come out.B．They travelled extensively across China.C．They led the way worldwide in their own expertsD．They contributed themselves to the development of TCM.2．What can we learn from the passage?A．Hua Tuo was desperate for reputation and fortune.B．Li Shizhen came from a family of doctors.C．Li Shizhen survived Zhang Zhongjing by 9 years.D．Zhang Zhongjing’s medical masterpiece vanished before published.3．In which section of a magazine may this passage appear?A．Healthy lifestyles.B．Daily entertainment.C．Historical figures.D．Fitness management.On March 25, 2010, Kate and David Ogg heard the words every parent fears: Their newborn wasn’t going to make it. Their twins -- a girl and a boy -- were born two minutes apart and exactly 14 weeks premature, weighing just over two pounds respectively. Doctors had tried to save the boy for 20 minute but saw no improvement. His heartbeat was nearly gone, and he’d stopped breathing. The baby had just moments to live.“I saw him gasp (大口嘴气), but the doctor said it was no use,” Kate told the Daily Mail five years later. “I know it sounds stupid, but if he was still gasping, that was a sign of life. I wasn’t going to give up easily.”Still, the Sydney couple knew this was likely goodbye. In an effort to cherish her last minutes with the tiny boy, Kate asked to hold him.“I wanted to meet him, and for him to know us, ” Kate told Today. “We’d resigned ourselves the fact that we were going to lose him, and we were just trying to make the most of those last, precious moments.”Kate unwrapped the boy, whom the couple had already named Jamie, from his hospital blanket and ordered David to take his Shirt off and join them in bed. The first-time parents wanted their son to be as warm as possible and hoped the skin-to-skin contact would improve his condition they then talked to him.“We were trying to let him stay, ” Kate told the Daily Mail. “We explained his name and that he had a twin that he had to look out for and that how hard we had tried to have him.”Then something unbelievable happened. Jamie gasped again and then he started breathing. Finally, he reached for his father’s finger.The couple’s lost boy had made it.“We’re the luckiest people in the world,” David told Today. Eight years later, Jamie and his sister, Emily, are happy and healthy. The Oggs only recently told the kids the story of their birth. “Emily hardy-held back her tears,” Kate said, “and she kept hugging Jamie with great affection. This whole experience makes you cherish them more.” “They widened their eyes as if there were an apple in their mouths bearing the miraculous experience,” David added. 4．What can we learn about the twins?A．They totally weighed less than 4 pounds.B．They have been in bad condition since birth.C．The couple attempted to save the boy but in vain.D．They came to the world nearly100 days earlier than expected.5．Which is the correct order of the following events?a. The dying boy went back to normal.b. The couple gave the boy a skin-to-skin contact.c. The couple made the case for his name to the boy.d. Doctors announced the approaching death of the boy.A．d-a-c-b B．d-b-c-a C．c-b-a-d D．d-c-a-b 6．How did Emily feel when told the story or their birth?A．Touched and challenged.B．Sad and confused.C．Astonished and bored.D．Surprised and moved.7．Which is a suitable title for the passage?A．A life-giving touch.B．A successful medical attention.C．A test from the God.D．First-time but devoted parents.We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are jammed with traffic, creating poisonous gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be?There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done?The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. Here are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into.Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC: “The big leap forward will come with solid-state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress cars. These will charge more quickly, and give cars a a bigger range.”Cost is another issue that may deter people switching to electric power. But some countries offer encouraging measures, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the Country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1,000 inhabitants.But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. 8．What makes global traffic difficult to be totally electric according to the second paragraph?A．A ban of the UK government.B．Lack of petrol.C．The small number of charging points.D．A low battery quality.9．According to Colin Herron, what can we learn?A．Solid-state batteries will allow electric cars to travel farther.B．Electric cars will indeed make for a zero-carbon future.C．Solid-state batteries will be initially employed in electric cars.D．Big progress has been made in laptops and mobile phones.10．What does the underlined word “deter” mean in the fourth paragraph?A．Block.B．Suggest.C．Leave.D．Catch.11．What will be most probably talked about next?A．The huge potential of electric cars.B．The unfavorable future of electric cars.C．The eagerness for a zero-carbon future.D．The reasons for not achieving a zero-carbon future.For most people, death is hard to think about. We tend to avoid the subject—involuntarily, even. The philosopher Stephen Cave offers one explanation for this avoidance in his 2012 book, Immorality. “Death,” he writes, “presents itself as both inevitable and impossible.” You can know rationally that you will die, yet struggle to understand your nonexistence. Put another way, you cannot be conscious of your own consciousnesses.So we dismiss death form our thoughts. But this leads us to make choice in life that actually reduce our happiness. People who express more regrets tend to be those who postpone profound activities that yield meaning, such as appreciating beauty or spending more time with loved ones. When we avoid thoughts of death, we unconsciously assume that tomorrow will look a lot like today, so we can do tomorrow what we could today. But when we focus on death, that increases the stakes at play in the present, and clarifies what we should do with our time.By forcing ourselves to think about death, our resources-use decisions change. I ask my 20-something graduate students to estimate how many Thanksgivings they realistically have left with their parents, and then to consider how they should spend those remaining occasions. This usually simulates a strong emotional reaction. But it can also alter such decisions as where they choose to live and work. This highlights that facing discomfort and thinking seriously about the impermanence of your mortal life are important for making decisions that enhance your happiness.There are other benefits. For example, paradoxical though it may seem, considering death can encourage positive thinking, as researchers found in 2007. People prepared to think about their death tended to focus on favorable emotional information around them, and to interpret random words in a pleasanter way. You begin to think extremely clearly, and realize that you have a choice about how to see present moment—and choose the positive.If you insist ignoring your own death, you are likely to make decisions that cause you to sleepwalk through life. You may not be dead yet, but you are not fully alive either. If you canlook across that border with resolve and confidence, you will experience every day fully and deeply.12．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A．People’s fear of death.B．People’s escape from death.C．People’s acceptance of death.D．People’s struggle against death. 13．What will happen to us if we don’t focus on death?A．Enjoying a lot more happiness.B．Taking better advantage of time.C．Postponing big things until tomorrow.D．Engaging in more meaningful activities.14．What’s the author’s purpose in mentioning his graduate students?A．To argue for the changes in making big decisions.B．To show doubts about facing discomfort of death.C．To compare students’ different attitudes to death.D．To argue against the necessity of considering death.15．What does the author suggest readers do in the passage?A．Avoid thinking about your death.B．Live a better life by ignoring death.C．Step away from death and live better.D．Think about your death and live better.二、七选五Report reveals CIA behind “Color Revolutions”Recently, the National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center released a report entitled Empire of Hacking: The US Central Intelligence Agency. 16 .According to statistics, the CIA has intervened (干预) in or attempted to overthrow at least 50 legitimate (合法的) governments and caused unrest in numerous other countries over the years, 17 . Examples of these interventions include the collapse of the socialist camp in the 1980s, the “Velvet Revolution”, “Rose Revolution”, “Orange Revolution”, “Tulip Revolution”, and “Snow Revolution” in various countries, and the “Green Revolution” and “Arab Spring”. Analyzing these events reveals that the successful organization of such “ColorRevolutions” depends on the use of communication and command technologies, in which the US is a leading power.18 . This facilitated the technological advances for US intelligence agencies to carry lout “Color Revolutions” abroad. The Internet also played a major role in the “Arab Spring”, with certain US-based multinational Internet companies actively intervening in the form of disinformation, support for anti-government actions, and other methods. 19 . Twitter and Google quickly created “Speak2Tweet” to help anti-government personnel in countries like Egypt and Tunisia maintain contact with the outside world. RAND developed “stampede”, a system that allowed proprietors to connect to the Internet, resulting in improved on-site command for demonstrations “RIOT”, a software that supports independent wireless broadband and anti-jamming Wi-Fi, was also developed to avoid censorship (审查) and surveillance (监视).The US Department of State also invested more than $ 30 million in the research and development of anti-censorship systems. 20 .A．though it has only admitted to sevenB．The Internet developed rapidly at that timeC．since these countries conducted “Color Revolutions”D．The US led the promotion of the Internet to the international market in the 1980sE．That the CIA has been secretly conducting “Color Revolutions” around the world for a long time is reportedF．Therefore, the CIA conducted several “Color Revolutions” worldwide with the help of these tools and technologiesG．These companies also provided encrypted (加密的) network communication services, such as TOR, to avoid censorship and surveillance三、完形填空faces.

江苏省靖江高级中学2024-2025学年高三上学期9月月考英语试题一、阅读理解A MEET THE AGENT — Jennifer March Soloway | Andrea Brown Literary AgencySEEKING“I would love to find some exciting adult literary adventures. Throw in a touch of romance, and I will stay up all night reading. I am also hungry for YA (young adult) novels, particularly stories about ordinary teens dealing with life, family, relationships or mental health. The digital age has been really hard on kids and teens, and I think young readers need to see their experiencereflected on the page to know they’re not alone.”1．What do we know about Jennifer March Soloway?A．She works in public relations now.B．She believes revisions really help.C．She relaxes herself by riding a bike.D．She publishes her clients’ projects. 2．What does Jennifer March Soloway seek to do?A．To write stories about teenage life.B．To enjoy YA novels with romance.C．To bring teenage problems to light.D．To reflect the benefits of digital age.3．In which section of a newspaper can we find this article?A．News.B．Finance.C．Advertisements.D．Literature.A new T- shirt that continuously monitors heart activity and detects abnormalities may help prevent strokes by identifying dangerous heart conditions like atrial fibrillation (AF). This irregular heart rhythm increases the risk of stroke and affects over a million-people in Britain, with an estimated 500,000 more remaining undiagnosed due to a lack of noticeable symptoms. While some individuals experience signs like chest pain, dizziness, or fatigue, many only discover the condition after suffering a stroke.Detecting AF typically involves an electrocardiogram (ECG), performed in a hospital where trained staff attach up to 24 electrodes to different parts of the body. However, since AF often occurs intermittently (间歇地), a short hospital check- up may not detect it. To counter this, doctors sometimes provide patients with a Holter monitor, a device worn under clothing that records heart activity. However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear.The Cardioskin T-shirt offers a more practical alternative. Made from cotton and washable up to35 times, it has15 small electrodes woven into the chest area to monitor heart signals continuously. The T-shirt can be worn 24 hours a day, increasing the likelihood of detecting abnormal rhythms. Powered by a removable battery, the electrodes feed data to a microchip, which wirelessly transmits the information to an app. The app converts the data into an easy- to- read chart, highlighting any irregular heart activity. The results are then shared with the patient’s doctor, allowing for remote monitoring without requiring hospital visits. This innovative design could make diagnosing AF easier and more accessible, potentially reducing the risk ofstroke for many.Professor Martin Cowie, a cardiologist at Imperial College London, views Cardioskin as an significant development in heart health monitoring, offering a comfortable and efficient tool for early detection of cardiac problems.4．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A．The difficulty in detecting atrial fibrillation.B．The benefit of wearing a Holter monitor.C．The process of recording heart activity.D．The future of developing a new ECG. 5．Why did the author mention a Holter monitor in the text?A．To introduce a way to check the patient’s heart.B．To explain why doctors like using the device.C．To show the advantage of a Cardiosk in T- shirt over it.D．To encourage people to care about their health.6．What can we learn about the Cardiosk in T- shirt?A．It has electrodes placed all over the T- shirt.B．It can be worn a month without being washed.C．It has a battery that can be charged easily and quicklyD．It can make the process of diagnosis timely and convenient.7．What could be the best title for the passage?A．New ECC: an important development for doctorsB．Hi- tech T- shirt: a good helper for detecting strokesC．Holter monitor: a device tracking patients’ heart problemsD．Cardiosk in T- shirt: a shirt keeping patients from diseasesIt has been five years since I left my staff job and became self-employed. I remember my terror as I walked out of the office for the last time and the excitement when I sold my first piece days later. Working for yourself, setting your own hours and being responsible for your success or failure are exciting. I left my job just as summer was starting, and my first few months were as blissful as the fair days.When winter came, an office where someone else paid for the central heating and my salary was guaranteed seemed attractive. January is tough for freelancers (自由职业者), and it was nodifferent for me — after masses of work, I earned none. I shared my fears with some businesswomen I knew — what if the reality would be more like what I was experiencing?Whether through choice or circumstance, the number of freelancers is rising and, if you’re just starting out, it is scary. I’ve been lucky that these women making money their own way shared key lessons about what it takes.You can’t feel half-hearted about what you do because, at some point, you’re going to have painful days. When that happens, you have to remember why you wanted this life in the first place. Don’t quit your job for something that you think might be more interesting, quit it for something you can’t stop thinking about.Setting up a business is tough. Rather than waiting until all is perfect, go for the moment when it feels as if momentum (势头) is with you. Look after yourself. There is no sick pay when you are self-employed. You can’t do a bad day’s work and blame it on your boss. You are the backbone of your business and you need to prioritize your health and well-being. Rest regularly and find like-minded people to support you and lift you up when things get hard.Finally, enjoy it. Freedom is yours and, if you can make it work, there is nothing better. 8．What does the underlined word “blissful” in paragraph 1 mean?A．Pleasant.B．challenging.C．Awful.D．Boring.9．What bothered the author when winter came?A．The cold weather influenced her working performance.B．She eventually realized freelancing wasn’t to her taste.C．Masses of freelancing work brought her much anxiety.D．She couldn’t even earn enough to meet daily basics.10．According to the author, why should we quit for a new job?A．To escape from the current pain.B．To satisfy our temporary interests.C．To explore where our strength lies.D．To pursue what we really desire. 11．What’s author’s probable attitude towards becoming freelancers?A．Critical.B．Favorable.C．Cautious.D．Unclear.Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains. The reasoning goes that each of us has a“level” of empathy and—like our adult height—we’re stuck there for life. This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try.Thankfully, this view is incomplete. Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows.No emotion is always useful, and that goes for empathy as well. This is especially true for nurses, doctors and other caregivers. These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to help others. Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care. However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering.Some psychologists, including myself, are now exploring how people in these professions might empathize in more sustainable ways. For example, empathetic concern-—feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart.In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it. For instance, people who were encouraged to have a “growth mindset” around empathy, as compared to a fixed mindset, spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the political divide.12．What view do many philosophers and psychologists have about empathy?A．It grows when practiced often.B．It is a result of individual experiences.C．It is inborn and difficult to develop.D．It varies depending on one’s upbringing.13．What does the author suggest doctors do?A．Develop their emotional empathy.B．Try to erase their patients’ concern.C．Care for their patients as much as possible.D．Work on improving their empathetic concern.14．Based on Carol Dweek’s studies in which situation are people willingly empathetic?A．If they believe that empathy is flexible.B．If they are given enough attention.C．If they listen to the identical political views.D．If they suffer racial discrimination.15．In which unit of a textbook does the text most likely appear?A．Understanding yourself more.B．Feeling for others.C．Exploring genes and emotions.D．Repairing broken relationships.Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change.16 Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you. 17Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem. 18 Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.Practice self-affirmation. 19 It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. 20 Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals.Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself.A．Avoid reacting defensively.B．Don’t take the feedback personally.C．These can feel easier to work with and give you direction.D．You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive.E．Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure.F．It’s almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time.G．So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback.二、完形填空Every Christmas, my mom would fill our stockings with small toys and candies.

上海市七宝中学2024-2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题
上海市七宝中学2024-2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题一、语法填空Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soliders, while the people 1 (help) civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat or calculated the length of the year, or manured (施肥) a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars (纪念柱) in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a solider. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are 2 that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not 3 (civilized). Animals fight; so 4 savages (野蛮人); so to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently — this, after all, is 5 conquerors and generals have done — is not being civilized. People fight 6 (settle) quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side 7 kill off greater number of the other side, and then saying that the side which has killed most 8 (win). It means 9 (say) that power is right.This is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars,10 millions of people were killed or disabled. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life-nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.二、选词填空Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Only two countries in the advanced world provide no guarantee for paid leave from work to care for a newborn child. Last spring one of the two, Australia, gave up the bad distinction by setting up paid family leave starting in 2011. I wasn’t surprised when this didn’t make the news here in the United States - we’re now the only wealthy country without such a policy.The United States does have one explicit family policy, the Family and Medical Leave Act, passed in 1993. It 11 workers to as much as 12 week’s unpaid leave for care of a newborn or dealing with a family medical problem. Despite the 12 of the benefit, the Chamber of Commerce and other business groups fought it bitterly, describing it as “government-run personnel management” and a “dangerous precedent (先例)”. In fact, every step of the way, as (usually) Democratic leaders have tried to introduce work-family balance measures into the law, business groups have been strongly 13 .As Yale law professor Anne Alstott, argues, 14 parental support depends on defining the family as a social good that, in some sense, society must pay for. Parents are 15 in many ways in their lives: there is “no exit” when it comes to children. Society expects parents to provide their children with continuity of care, meaning the 16 and intimate care that human beings need to develop their intellectual, emotional and moral capabilities. And society expects parents to persist in their roles for 18 years, or longer if needed.While most parents do this out of love, there are public punishments for not providing care. What parents do, in other words, is of deep 17 to the state, for the obvious reason that caring for children is not only 18 urgent but important to the future of society. The state recognizes this in the large body of family laws that govern children’s welfare, yet parents receive little help in meeting the life-changing obligations society 19 . To classify parenting as apersonal choice for which there is no collective responsibility is not merely to ignore the social benefits of good parenting, really, it is to steal those benefits because they accrue (累积) to the whole of society as today’s children become tomorrow’s citizens. In fact, by some 20 , the value of parental investments in children, investments of time and money, is equal to 20%-30% of GDP. If these investments bring huge social benefits-as they clearly do-the benefits of providing more social support for the family should be that much clearer.三、完形填空Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans. As master craft workers, they imparted the knowledge of their trades to apprentices (学徒) and journeymen (熟练工). 21 women often worked in their homes part-time, making finished articles from raw material supplied by merchant capitalists. After 1815 this older form of manufacturing began to 22 factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers. 23 transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production.Apprentices were considered part of the family, and masters were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them with some education and for 24 their moral behavior. Journeymen knew that if they 25 their skill, they could become respected master artisans with their own shops. Also, skilled artisans did not work by the clock.The factory changed that. Goods produced by factories were not as finished or elegant as those done by hand, and pride in craftsmanship gave way to the 26 to increase rates of productivity. The new methods of doing business involved a new and stricter sense of time. Absenteeism and lateness hurt productivity and, since work was specialized, 27 the regular factory routine. Industrialization not only produced a fundamental change in the way work was organized; it 28 the very nature of work.The first generation to experience these changes did not adopt the new attitudes easily. The factory clock became the symbol of the new work rules. One mill worker who finally 29 complained revealingly about “obedience to the ding-dong of the bell-just as though we are so many living machines.” With the 30 of personal freedom also came the loss of standingin the community. Unlike artisan workshops in which apprentices worked 31 with the masters supervising them, factories sharply separated workers from management. Few workers rose through the ranks to supervisory positions, and even well-paid workers sensed their 32 in status.In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. The labor movement gathered some momentum (动力，势头) in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor’s strength 33 . During hard times, few workers were willing to strike or 34 collective action. And skilled craft workers, who led the union movement, did not feel a particularly strong bond with semiskilled factory workers and unskilled laborers. More than a decade of agitation (激烈争论) did finally bring a workday shortened to 10 hours to most industries by the 1850s’, and the courts also recognized workers’ right to strike, but these 35 had little immediate impact. 21．A．Otherwise B．Moreover C．However D．Therefore 22．A．give way to B．make up for C．get rid of D．end up with 23．A．Expensive B．Public C．Difficult D．Cheap 24．A．displaying B．supervising C．respecting D．predicting 25．A．shared B．assessed C．perfected D．applied 26．A．pressure B．hatred C．freedom D．disappointment 27．A．followed B．broke C．established D．fixed 28．A．ignored B．demanded C．guaranteed D．transformed 29．A．succeeded B．recovered C．quitted D．revenged 30．A．restoration B．change C．loss D．protection 31．A．closely B．efficiently C．independently D．diligently 32．A．stability B．independence C．decline D．security 33．A．maintained B．developed C．returned D．collapsed 34．A．protest against B．give up C．account for D．engage in 35．A．emphases B．limits C．evidences D．gains四、阅读理解The person who set the course of my life was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost his mother and was coming to live with the father he did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me to freedom.I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during “club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.A tough woman with salt-and-pepper hair and determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper. Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-tom homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a journalist by profession.Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately bullied and charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldn’t have become a reporter. She was the catalyst that sent me into journalism and indirectly caused all the good things that came after.36．Which of the following caused the author to think of his homeland differently?A．Stepping on the American soil for the first time.B．Her mother’s miserable deathC．Being exposed to Greek literary works.D．Following the prettiest girl in his class. 37．It can be inferred from Paragraph Four that ________.A．Miss Hurd’s contribution was recognized across the nation.B．Students from troubled homes preferred Miss Hurd’s teaching styleC．The students Miss Hurd taught were all finally firedD．Miss Hurd employed a unique way to handle these students38．The passage is mainly concerned with ________.A．how the author became a journalist B．the importance of inspiration in one’s life C．the teacher who shaped the author’s life D．factors contributing to a successful careerWhen you first arrive in Oxford，it may take a little while for you to find your way around. The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800 years. Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike ( most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around), setting up a bank account , getting their computer and mobile phone working , finding their department, getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.One of the major events you will experience shortly after "coming up" to Oxford is matriculation. Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year. Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you , as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you . The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system, University services, information on living in Britain and culture differences, as well as addressing practical issues such as employment, immigration and visas, health and safety. You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow student.Another good thing to experience early on is college dining. Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners, which consist of three or four courses and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant. On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor. In this way you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many often historical college grounds and dining halls.Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like bywatching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100 Faces. 39．Which of the following is not the first thing for a newcomer to Oxford to do_______？A．to find a best place to socializeB．to set up a bank accountC．to go to the Sheldonian TheatreD．to get mobile phone working40．When do students feel they are truly admitted to Oxford University______？A．They arrived in Oxford and settled down on campus．B．They received the offer from the admission office．C．They met the staff and took some required courses．D．They experienced the matriculation in the university．41．Why is an orientation important for international students？A．It is a good chance to ask the staff for help．B．It offers practical information about living and studying．C．It helps get students' computers hooked to the Internet．D．It can help deal with the problem of culture differences．42．"Return the favor"in the passage probably means___．A．inviting you for dinnerB．visiting your historic college in returnC．sharing favorite videosD．providing you with some good advice．In the college-admissions wars, we parents are the true fighters. We’re pushing our kids to get good grades, take SAT preparatory courses and build resumes to they can get into the college of our first choice. I’ve twice been to the wars, and as I survey the battlefield, something different is happening. We see our kids’ college background as a prize demonstrating how well we’ve raised them. But we can’t acknowledge that our obsession is more about us than them. So we’ve come up with various justifications that turn out to be half-truths, prejudices or myths. It actually doesn’t matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.We have a full-blown prestige panic; we worry that there won’t be enough prizes to goaround. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever. Underlying the hysteria (歇斯底里) is the belief that scarce elite degrees must be highly valuable. Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts. All that is plausible--and mostly wrong. We haven’t found any convincing evidence that selectivity or prestige matters. Selective schools don’t systematically employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools, On two measures- professors’ feedback and the number of essay exams selective schools do slightly worse.By some studies, selective schools do enhance their graduates’ lifetime earnings. The gain is considered at 2-4% for every 100-point increase in a school’s average SAT scores. But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke (偶然). A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere. They earned just as much as graduates from higher-status schools.Kids count more than their colleges. Getting into Yale may signify intelligence, talent and ambition. But it’s not the only indicator and its significance is declining. The reason: so many similar people go elsewhere. Getting into college is not life’s only competition. In the next competition--the job market and graduate school-the results may change. Old-boy networks are breaking down. Princeton economist Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph.D．program. High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in; degrees of prestigious universities didn’t.So, parents, lighten up. The stakes (风险) have been vastly exaggerated. Up to a point, we can rationalize (合理化) our pushiness. America is a competitive society; our kids need to adjust to that. But too much pushiness can be destructive. The very ambition we impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. One study found that, other things being equal, graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction. They may have been so conditioned to being on top that anything less disappoints. 43．Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?A．They have the final say in which university their children are to attend.B．They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.C．They care more about which college their children go to than the children themselves.D．They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make an application. 44．What does the author mean by “kids count more than their colleges” Line 1, para.4?A．Continuing education is more important to a person’s success.B．Kids’ actual abilities are more important than their college background.C．A person’s happiness should be valued more than their education.D．What kids learn at college cannot keep up with job market requirements.45．What does Krueger’s study tell us?A．Getting into Ph.D．programs may be more competitive than getting into college.B．Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.C．Connections built in prestigious universities may be sustained long after graduation.D．Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs. 46．According to the passage, one possible result of pushing children into elite universities is that ________.A．they experience more job dissatisfaction after graduationB．they earn less than their peers from other institutionsC．they turn out to be less competitive in the job marketD．they overemphasize their qualifications in job applicationDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.In business, there is a speed difference: It’s the difference between how important firm leaders say speed is to their competitive strategy and how fast the company actually moves. The difference is important regardless of industry and company size. 47In our study of 343 businesses, the companies that choose to go, go, go to try to gain an edge ended up with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track. What’s more, the firms that “slowed down to speed up “improved their top and bottom lines, averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three-year period.48 They thought differently about what “slower” and “faster” mean. Firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operation speed (moving quickly )and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value ).Simply increasing the speed of production, for example ,may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference .But that oftenleads to reduced value over time, in the form of lower-quality products and services.In our study, higher-performing companies with strategic speed always made changes when necessary. They became more open to ideas and discussion. 49 And they allowed time to look back and learn. By contrast, performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time, paid too much attention to improving efficiency, stuck to tested methods, didn’t develop team spirit among their employees, and had little time thinking about changes.Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership. 50 That kind of strategy must come from the top.A．How did they disobey the laws of business physics, taking more time than competitors yet performing better?B．Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals.C．More haste, less speed, which in the study proves wrong.D．Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.E．They valued efficiency rather than consideration.F．They encouraged new ways of thinking.五、书面表达51．Directions: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.It is found that American students spend less than 15% of their time in school. While there’s no doubt that school is important, a number of recent studies remind us that parents are even more so. A study published earlier this month by researchers at North Carolina State University, for example, finds that parental involvement-checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school activities at home — has a more powerful influence on students’ academic performance than anything about the school the students attend.So parents matter. But it is also revealed in researches that parents, of all backgrounds, don’t need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give theman advantage. What they need to do with their children is much simpler: talk.But not just any talk. Recent research has indicated exactly what kinds of talk at home encourage children’s success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health found that two-way adult-child conversations were six times as potent in promoting language development as the ones in which the adult did all the talking.Engaging in this back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter.The content of parents’ conversations with kids matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge. While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement remain strong. Research finds that parents play an important role in what is called “academic socialization” — setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals. Engaging in these sorts of conversations has a greater impact on educational accomplishment._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _六、翻译52．意识到犯了大错，我马上向在场所有的人表达了诚挚的歉意。
