As they drove by the redbrick building, they saw a group of 25 homeless men standing on the street corner. “Dad, they look sad,” Austin said. “Can we take them some food and make them smile?”That day, Austin used his allowance to buy each man a Burger King sandwich and handed the food out himself.Seeing what their presence meant to the men at the ministry, Austin and TJ returned the next week. After he returned every week for five weeks, word of Austin’s acts of kindness spread through social media and national news outlets. Burger King jumped aboard, agreeing to donate $1,000 a month for an entire year toward the cause. Soon, churches and shelters across the country began inviting Austin to come and distribute food in other poor areas. Whereas before Austin and TJ could feed 25 to 50 people at a time, now, thanks to corporate and community support, they can feed 800 to 2,000 people at once.But Austin isn’t just filling bellies. He’s improving the lives of those he meets. On that first trip to Firehouse Ministries, TJ and Austin talked to a man named Raymont.The respect Austin gave 41-year-old Raymont touched the man.

New research conducted by the University of Bristol has shown that as many as 41 million Americans are highly at risk from river floods – more than three times the number previously estimated –with real estate (住宅区) in areas such as Louisiana, Florida, Arizona and West Virginia found to be especially at threat.For the first time, it has been possible to produce super quality flood risk maps that cover the whole United States, while previous Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps cover no more than 60 per cent of the country. The fine details provided by these new maps also makes it possible to predict the powerful effects of flooding on many smaller streams than before, thus raising concerns about the increasing number of people potentially threatened.“We were all surprised by how many Americans we find are exposed to flooding from rivers,”says Oliver Win g, from the University of Bristol’s School of Geographical Sciences. “It’s particularly worri some considering that most of these people aren’t even aware of the risk they face.”Additionally, there is the possibility that this lack of awareness means construction in high-risk river flooding areas will continue to rise, despite the threats. Estimates (估量) suggest that projected population growth, continued urbanization trends (城市化趋势), and the unpredictable threats caused by climate change will leave over 60 million Americans vulnerable (易受攻击的) to a 100-yearflood by the middle of the century. ‘All of this highlights the urgent need for large areas of floodplain and flood risk management planning,’ adds Wing.28. Which paragraph best supports“the risk of river flooding”?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.29. Which is true about the new maps?A. They cover over 60 per cent of the United States.B. They contain details of the flooding effects.C. They make the river flooding under control.D. They make the threats of rivers clear for the public.30. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. People need management planning against the risk.B. Most people are aware of the risk of the river flooding.C. Climate change is the main cause of river flooding.D. The threats keep people from construction near river flooding areas.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. A research on the risk of river flooding.B. The rising threats of coastal flooding.C. Unpredictable threats caused by climate change.D. Reasons for people’s unawareness of the risk.DMore than 20 years ago, a skeleton called Little Foot turned up in a South African cave. The nearly complete skeleton was a member of the human family. Now researchers have freed most of the skeleton from its stony shell and analyzed the fossils (化石) and they say 3.67-million-years-old Little Foot belonged to a unique species.Researcher Ronald Clarke and his colleagues think Little Foot belonged to A. Prometheus (普罗米修斯南猿). Clarke works at the university of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg South Africa. He studies fossilized humans and our relatives. Their foundings, published in four papers, have suggested the species A.Prometheus might have existed. Clarke has believed in that species for more than a decade, he found the first Little Foot’s remains in a storage box of fossils in 1994. People began digging out the rest of the skeleton in 1997.Many other researchers instead argue that Little Foot likely belonged to a different species, which is known as A.africanus (南方古猿非洲种). Researcher Raymond Dart first identified A.africanus in 1924. He was studying the skull (头颅骨) of an ancient youngster called the Taung Child. Since then, people have turned up hundreds more A. africanus fossils in South African caves. Those include Sterkfontein, where Little Foot was found.The braincase is the part of the skull that holds the brain. And researchers found a partial braincase that Dart thought belonged to a different species in Makapansgat, one of those other caves. In 1948, Dart called this other species A. Prometheus, but he changed his mind after 1955. Instead, he said that braincase and another fossil at Makapansgat belonged to A.africanus. There was no A. Prometheus after all, he concluded.Clarke and his colleagues want to bring back the rejected species. They say LittleFoot’s distinctive skeleton, an adult female that is at least 90 percent complete, is solid evidence for it.32. Which of the following beliefs did Ronald Clarke hold?A. A. Prometheus wasn’t a human species.B. Little Foot didn’t belonged to the human family.C. Little Foot was one member of A. Prometheus.D. A. Prometheus lived over four million years ago.33. What can we learn about A. Prometheus?A. There wasn’t much evidence of it.B. Its fossil were first discovered in 1948.C. It’s a species that’s believed to have existed.D. The Taung Child wasn’t its first known member.34. What’s Dart’s most probable attitude toward the existence of A. Prometheus now?A. UncertainB. SupportiveC. UninterestedD. Disapproving35. What is the best title for the text?A. The Skeleton Little Foot Causing a Big Debate.B. Two New Human Species Accidentally Discovered.C. More Human Fossils Being Dug Up In Sterkfontein.D. Little Foot From Makapansgat Drawing New Attention.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
黑龙江省实验中学2021—2022学年高二上学期第一次月考 英语 Word版含答案
黑龙江省实验中学2020级高二上学期10月月考英语学科试题考试时间:90分钟总分:100分时间:2021年10月第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节:(共15小题,每题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
ACollege visits are important. Before you commit years of your life and money to a school, be sure you're choosing a place that is a good match for your personality and interests. You can't get the “feel” of a school from any guidebook, so be sure to visit the campus. Below are a few tips for getting the most out of your college visit.Explore on Your OwnOf course you should take the official campus tour, but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own. The trained tour guides will show you a school’s selling points. But the oldest and prettiest buildings don't give you the entire picture of a college. Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus.Read the Bulletin BoardsWhen you visit the student center, academic buildings and residence halls, take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards. They provide an easy way to see what's happening on campus. The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what’s going on outside the classrooms.Eat in the Dining HallYou can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall. Try to sit with students if you can. Do the students seem happy or stressed? Also, is the food good? Are there adequate healthy options? Many admission offices will give prospective students coupons (优惠券) for free meals in the dining halls.Visit a Class in Your MajorIf you know what you want to study, a class visit makes a lot of sense. You'll get to observe other students in your field and see how involved they are in classroom discussion. Try to stay after class for a few minutes and chat with the students to get their impressions of their professors and major. Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit—most colleges don't allow visitors to drop in at class unannounced.Talk to Lots of StudentsYour campus tour guide has been trained to market the school. Try to talk to students who aren't getting paid to impress you. These important conversations can often provide you with information about college life that isn't part of the admission script. Few university officials will tell you if their students spend all weekend drinking or studying, but a group of random students might.For more tips, please go to .1. The best way to know about a college in an official campus tour is ___________.A. to walk around the campus aloneB. to take pictures of the campusC. to visit the oldest and prettiest buildingsD. to hire a trained tour guide2. Reading the bulletin boards can help you _____________.A. decide the major you want to studyB. find out the after-class activities on campusC. get free coupons from the admission officesD. find out the options of healthy food3. Where does the passage probably come from ?A. A news report.B. A tourist poster.C. An educational journal.D. A geographical magazine.BOver the past couple of days, on our local Freecycle page there have been a lot of wanted posts, all from the same person, basically asking for everything you'd need to set up a house from scratch.One of the things they asked for was a queen-sized bed. At that time we just happened to have an extra one, so I messaged them. They immediately came in the afternoon. The people who came, two ladies and a man, are actually friends of another woman named Jenny who owned a young boy. This woman has escaped from a dangerous, violent relationship and these friends of hers are helping her and her son start over again, with everything from furniture to toothbrushes on their list of needs.While they were here, I also gave them one of our spare bookcases and some coffee cups. I even asked them to keep in touch in case they needed anything else-I have a way of connecting people with things. I offered the woman a cupboard we had as well; her friends just needed to see if there was a place and /or a need for it in their friend’s new home.I was so excited to meet those loving people, who were obviously willing to help their friend. It was clear how protective they felt of this woman and her boy, how much they love her and wanted her to have a happy and safe life, and to spend even a few minutes with people like that is an experience I’ll remember for a long, long time.A quick thank-you to all who have sent more donations over the last couple of days, as well as lovely messages of thanks and blessings. Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with it all, but it’s a problem I’m happy to have.4. What were the people who arrived at the authors in the afternoon going to do?A. Promote some products customers needed.B. Fetch the bed the author would give away.C. Recycle second-hand furniture.D. Help repair the author's furniture.5. Which of the following words can best describe the author?A. Warm-hearted.B. Mean.C. Narrow-minded.D. Intelligent.6. From the last two paragraphs, we can infer that_________________.A. the author doesn’t like to spend too much time with those people like Jenny’s friendsB. Jenny and her boy will hardly get help from the author’s frie ndsC. the author was disappointed with those only sending messages of thanks and blessingsD. Jenny and her boy will have a new start with the help of people7. The suitable title for the text should be “________________”.A. No pains, no gainsB. God helps those who help themselvesC. Many hands make light workD. Where there is a will, there is a wayCBreathing dirty air comes at a high price. Air pollution lowers the average life spans (寿命) by a year worldwide and in more polluted parts of Asia and Africa, dirty air shortens lives up to twice that much. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters. The study used data gathered in 2016 as part of a project known as the Global Burden of Disease and was the first major country-by-country look at the connection between the length of life and what’s known as fine PM.Air pollution has been linked to many health problems. Most earlier studies had looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. Joshua Apte is an environmental scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. By looking at life expectancy (预期寿命), his team had hoped to make the threat easier tounderstand. PM2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM2.5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average length of life. This analysis shows how pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world.The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air. Apte’s group calculated how holding pollution to this low level would help people. In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen people’s lives. However, in countries whose air al ready meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard won’t reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks. Meanwhile, the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe.8. What is special about the study?A. It won recognition from a professional journal.B. It discussed health problems caused by air pollution.C. It gathered lots of data for the Global Burden of Disease.D. It analyzed the link between life spans and PM by country.9. What is Joshua Apte’s team trying to do?A. Help people better understand air pollution.B. Study life expectancy in different countries.C. Know how small air pollutants affect health.D. Deal with different kinds of health problems.10. What will happen if a country limits PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air?A. People’s life spans will surely increase.B. It will get strong support from the WHO.C. People’s health may not be much improved.D. It will guarantee people clean air.11. What might be discussed in the following paragraphs?A. How cleaning up the air can lengthen lives.B. How air pollution shortens lives by country.C. How other threats shorten life expectancy.D. How all the countries deal with severe pollution.DWhile every dog owner knows their dogs can read their moods perfectly, scientists have always been a little doubtful. Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria, we finally have some convincing evidence.For their study, biologist Corsin Müller and his team exposed eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy. Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face, while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face. Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves. That's because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face.After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face. The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn. They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly. However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear. In fact, the dogs hadsuch a good time playing the computer “game” that scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly. Since the touchscreen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous dog studies—dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.12. How did the scientists conduct the experiment?A. By leaving dogs to women who are either happy or angry.B. By mixing the selected dogs together.C. By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen.D. By showing digital pictures of women's happy or angry faces.13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The dogs were not all provided with the entire face.B. According to their size, the dogs were given either upper or lower halves.C. The dogs could read even small changes that accompany facial expressions after some training.D. The dogs couldn't read strangers facial emotions.14. The underlined word “trepidation” in Paragraph 5 probably means _____.A. horrorB. curiosityC. excitementD. doubt15. How might the results change if the dogs with female owners are shown pictures of male faces?A. They could only tell emotions on partial faces rather than on entire faces.B. They found it hard to tell the moods on the faces of a different gender.C. They found it easy to tell the emotions on the entire face.D. They would be scared away at the sight of the pictures.第二节(共5小题; 每题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

If you want to buy two copies of Balancing Work & Life and one copy of Happiness Now online, how much would you have to pay?A. $29B. $23.20C. $26.50D. $22.40BThe Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and entertainment. We can find new recipes(食谱) on the Interact or advice on staying healthy. We can even use it to learn a new language. We use the Internet to keep in contact with family and friends and stay in touch with issues we care about. The list goes on and on.Well, there may be no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health? It might be, say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure in an unlikely group---teenagers. So, try to be a responsible guardian for your children.The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week online are more likely to have high blood pressure. High blood pressure makes your heart and blood vessels(血管) work too hard. Over time, this extra strain(压力) increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke(中风). High blood pressure can also cause heart, kidney and brain diseases.The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. It involved 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old. One hundred and thirty-four of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. Researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers say the study is the first one to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure. Another research has connected that heavy Internet use with health problems including anxiety, depression and obesity(肥胖症).The lead researcher of the study is Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow. For the purpose of the study, she explains, teens considered heavy Internet users were online on average “25 hours a week”. In a statement she said, “Using the Internet is part of our daily but it shouldn’t consume us.”Ms. Gassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to take regular breaks from their computers or smart phones and to do some kinds of physical activities. She also suggests that parents limit their children’s use of the Internet to two hours a day, five days a week.4.The author mainly wants to tell us .A.how to prevent high blood pressure.B.too much Internet use may be bad for teenagers.C.it’s necessary for teenagers to avoid the Internet.D.heavy Internet use will worsen teenagers’ memory.5.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean?A.People shouldn’t buy goods through the Internet.B.People shouldn’t waste too much time on the Internet.C.People shouldn’t fall in love with the Internet.D.People should control the time length of using the Internet6.According to Casssidy-Bushrow, teenagers’ use of the Internet should be limited to .A.25 hours a week B.fourteen hours a weekC.ten hours a week D.five hours a week7.The text is mainly intended for .A.parents B.teachers C.web-designers D.studentsCOne of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.When we see something we don't like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something b etter. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture. The root(根源) of the unhappiness isn't necessarily that we want things to be different. However, it's that we decided we didn't like it in the first place. We've jud ged it as bad, rather than saying, “It's not bad or good, and it just is it. ”In one of my books, I said “You should expect people to make mistakes and expect thingsto go differently than you planned”. Some readers said it’s too sad to expect things to go wrong. However, it's only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad. Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is.This can be applied to whatever you do: how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they're that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you'll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn't happen!”Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But change things not because you can't accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.Can we make this world a better place? You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world. That's the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach:accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.8.The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because ___________.A.it is our natural emotion in the lifeB.culture asks us to be different from othersC.everyone has their own opinions on thingsD.we dislike something in the beginning9.What does the underlined word "it" In Paragraph 4 refers to?A.Acting well at work and in politics.B.Feeling depressed for the news media.C.Accepting and understanding what has happened.D.Saying something negative when bad things come.10.What are you advised according to the last paragraph?A.Help others and make a differenceB.Enjoy what you have to do in the workC.Judge yourself and make a wish for youD.Try a new way when making the world better11.What is the main theme of the passage?A.Accepting can make our life happier and better.B.Expecting things to be different gives us hope.C.Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.D.Judging good or bad is important for our world.DThe number of insects in the world has fallen by 45 percent in the past 35 years. Scientists say this could be dangerous for humans. A report on insect numbers has been published in the journal “Science”. It says the human population has doubled since 1980 while the number of insects has nearly halved. One of the biggest reasons for this loss of insects is the act of cutting down trees or burning them. Many of the places where insects live are disappearing because of new cities and land being used for farming. Another reason is global warming. Scientists say that in the UK, the number of butterflies, bees and wasps(黄蜂) has fallen by up to 60 percent. Many countries are worried about the disappearance of them.Scientists say the decline in insect populations will lead to many problems for humans. One of the biggest dangers is that there will be fewer insects to pollinate flowers. This means that farmers will have problems growing food. The lead author of the report, Professor Rodolfo Dirzo, said falling numbers of insects could also lead to more diseases in humans. He said rats and mice would have less food to eat so they will move to cities and bring diseases with them. Dr. Ben from London University said we needed to stop more insects from dying. He added that scientists must understand what species(物种) are winning and losing in the fight for survival. He said this knowledge would help us to protect the “helpful” insects.12. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The number of insects has fallen by 35 percent in the past 45 years.B. The human population on the earth has nearly halved since 1980.C. The number of insects has been twice as large as that in 1980.D. Bee and butterfly numbers have fallen by 60 percent in the UK.13. Which of the following is NOT the reason for insect disappearance?A. Global warming.B. Terrible weather.C. Appearance of new cities.D. Loss of trees.14. What does the underlined word “pollinate” mean in the second paragraph?A. 播种B. 采摘C. 授粉D. 捕食15. What can be inferred from the passage?A. More diseases will be brought to cities by rats and mice.B. Dr. Ben reminded us to prevent more insects from dying.C. Research on the survival of insects may be helpful to humans.D. In the future, it isn’t important for farmers to grow food without insects.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

My dad wasn* t going to waste his time teaching someone who didn t want to be taught. Time passed and I accepted that I couldn t ride a bike. It never impacted my life in high school because I lived close enough to walk.I never felt like I was miss out until I couldn* t go on a bike ride with friends in Byron Bay because I was confident that I could go on a flat surface in a straight line. So when the chance came up to bike on the wall of Xi * an, I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it and make up my side, I got on the bike. But I didn' t know how to start. To push off with one foot hard was my instruction. It sounded simple enough but just was off, going in a straight line on a flat surface and managing to avoid the Chinese tourists who found my excitement funny.When I was at the age of 22, I finally learnt how to ride a bike, and I thought nothing can hold me back.4. According to the passage, how did British children learn TO ride their bikes?A. By teaching themselves.B. By depending on their parents.C. By asking their friends for help.D. By relying on their dads. 5. Why didn' t the author want to repeat one of his bike-learning experiences?A. Because he was mistaken.B. Because he didn' t understand his father.C. Because he wasn' t taught TO ride a bike.D. Because he was hurt while riding a bike.6. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "impacted” in Paragraph 2?CWhat kinds of rooms are your favorite for studying? We are going to guess that they are probably not painted bright red or yellow. But maybe they should be. Imagine. You are suddenly asked to prepare for an exam. You have two rooms to choose from. One is a pale blue, and the other is a bright red. Which one do you settle into for study? Is one going to get your brain fired up for learning, or let you relax into the best state of concentration?According to researchers at Curtin University in Australia, it might be best To camp out in the bright red room when you are looking to store information. It might sound strange, since we often think of pale rooms soft blues or light-greens are relaxing. And they seem to be: The Curtin University study showed that pale colors made participants feel more relaxed and calm, while bright colors increased heart rate. But calming and relaxing, it turns out, may not always be the best environment for deep concentration or knowledge gaining. Reading comprehension was much better in the bright rooms than in the pale rooms. Although participants reported that they generally preferred the pale rooms to study in as an approach to relax into work, the researchers saw just the opposite that the bright-colored rooms seemed to lead to greater concentration.While this might seem only surprising, the findings get into a rather controversial (有争议的)area of psychological study. The Yerkes-Dodson Law says that a little bit of stress is good for achieving best performance, while TOO much stress negatively affects it. The higher heart rate and the reports of the bright colors creating a heavy atmosphere might just suggest that a little stress was good for the brain.8. What is the common idea mentioned in the first paragraph?A. Pale colors appeal TO all tastes.B. Few people like bright red or yellow.C. Light-colored rooms make you feel nervous.D. Bright-colored rooms are not good for studying. 9. What might directly affect the research results according to Paragraph 2?A. How participants react to colors.B. Participants * preferences in colors.C. What participants read in the rooms.D. Time participants spent in the rooms.10. What can be concluded from the study by Currin University?A.

But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term. They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with this emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone TO do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性)・Today* s work place is all about relationships. Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they* re recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor (因素)in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence(情商)----------------- knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.12.The underlined phrase shooting oneself in the footmeans in this passage.A. throw or walk in a specific direction or towards a specific objectiveB・ to grow forth from the groundC. to move or pass suddenly or swiftly•3・。

黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解BEST BODY FITNESSAbout usYou don’t want just a gym membership. You want a membership that means something. And that means you need support, expert help and a community.Best Body Fitness isn’t just a gym: it’s full-service fitness membership made for you. Here’s how it works:STEP ONE: Your assessmentWe begin with an assessment session. This is a chance for you to see what we do at Best Body. Our assessment plans are no-cost and no-risk. We’ll also make a training plan specifically for you.STEP TWO: Your trainingWhen you decide to become a Best Body member, we show you what to do, how to do it and why you are doing it. After a few sessions with an expert private trainer you will feel comfortable working out on your own.STEP THREE: Your membershipMembership works on a month-to-month basis. There are no sign-up fees and no cancellation fees. Start and stop whenever you want. And the best part? Our fees are the most competitive in the whole downtown area.STEP FOUR: Your communityAt Best Body Fitness, we see everyone as part of a big team. And when you work with a team, you can do great things. Join any of our specialized classes, led by expert trainers. Come to our nutrition classes. Participate in our regular social events. Everything is included in your fee.Finally, we want to share with you some reasons why our members say that they have chosen us over any other fitness centre in the city.It’s so EASYEasy to start, stop, cancel or refund a membership.Easy to access ― we’re open 24/7, we never close.Easy results ― our trainers and equipment give you success, fast.Come and visit us for a personal tour!1.What can one do in the second step?A.Have a full assessment.B.Work with a team.C.Learn from the private trainer.D.Make a training plan.2.If you become a member of this gym, you can ________.A.get refund when you cancel your membershipB.get expert training but you need to pay extra feeC.go to the gym only from 6:00 am to 10:00 pmD.go to the gym only from Monday to Saturday3.What do you think the above passage is?A.A story book.B.A science magazine.C.A TV show.D.An advertisement.When it came time for me to look at options for postgraduate study, I decided to go abroad, initially looking at options in both Australia and the United States.I decided on Australia finally after I spoke with friends, who had experience of studying at the University of Melbourne and living in the city. The people I knew described to me as a place where there were lots of people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds, and where everyone was open-minded and there were discussions happening everywhere. I’m happy to say that ended up being my experience as well.I joined Lion, one of Australasia’s largest food and drink companies, as part of their graduate program, which was a fantastic opportunity, because it gave me the opportunity to work in a variety of roles, and gain experience across a variety of functions. But the thing with Lion was that they were already a very established business; they already had their processes and structures in place.When the opportunity came for me to join Culture Amp, I realized it was an opportunity to see a business grow and be part of that evolution. It was just what I wanted. That comes with its own challenges, as new problems appear you might be solving them from the very beginning, rather than having a framework to fall back on, but it also means there’s room to learn and experiment. It made me realize where my interests lie. Here in Australia, there’s areally high tolerance for change in your careers. I think it’s really easy for graduates to fee1 like they have to “jump” into a role, and then that’s it, forever. But the truth is, your career is a marathon. You can expect to change courses along the way, and allow your interests to open new doors.4.Why did the author choose to study in Australia?A.Her friends lived there.B.She decided to work there.C.She liked the culture there.D.She wanted to meet new people.5.Which can best describe the author’s work in Lion?A.Facing various opportunities.B.Lacking challenges.C.Demanding new structures.D.Offering limited roles.6.What did the author want to get from Culture Amp?A.Learning how to do experiments.B.Having a framework to turn to.C.Dealing with problems in wise ways.D.Experiencing a company’s development.7.What is the author’s attitude towards changing jobs?A.Uncertain.B.Objective.C.Supportive.D.Contradictory.Like most nerds who read science fiction, I’ve kept wondering how society will greet true artificial intelligence, if and when it arrives. Will we panic? Ignore it and go about our daily lives? Hence, it’s been fascinating to watch the Twittersphere try to make sense of ChatGPT, a new cutting-edge A.I. chatbot opened for testing at the end of 2022. ChatGPT — which stands for “generative pre-trained transformer”— landed with a splash. In five days, more than a million people signed up to test it.In recent years, though a few A.I. tools have gotten good at doing narrow and well-defined tasks, like writing marketing copy, they still tend to be weak when taken outside their comfort zones. But ChatGPT feels different. Smarter. More flexible. It can write jokesand college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, and even seems good at answering the types of open-ended analytical questions which frequently appear on school assignments.The technology that powers ChatGPT isn’t, strictly speaking, new. It’s based on what the company calls “GPT-3.5,” an upgraded version of GPT-3 in 2020. While the existence of a highly capable linguistic superbrain might be old news to A.I. researchers, it’s the first time such a powerful tool has been made available to the general public through a free, easy-to-use web interface.Unlike Google, ChatGPT doesn’t crawl the web for information on current events, and its knowledge is restricted to things it learned before 2021. Since ChatGPT training data includes billions of examples of human opinion, representing every reasonable view, it’s also, in some sense, moderate by design. Without specific prompting, for example, it’s hard to coax (诱导) a strong opinion out of ChatGPT about political debates. Usually, you’ll get a fair summary of what each side believes.8.How did the public initially respond to ChatGPT?A.People worried about this new technology.B.Many people found it hard to understand ChatGPT.C.A number of people couldn’t wait to register for a try.D.Millions of people were ignorant of this new A.I. chatbot.9.What can we learn from paragraph 2?A.ChatGPT is a typical A.I. tool used for specified tasks.B.A.I. apps provide perfect answers to analytical questions.C.ChatGPT helps doctors with serious medical diagnoses.D.Homework might not be a problem for ChatGPT users.10.In which aspect is ChatGPT different from the GPT-3?A.People can gain access to it free of charge.B.Linguistic researchers speak highly of it.C.It is welcomed by A.I. researchers with enthusiasm.D.It is the first powerful tool open to the general public.11.What’s the text mainly about?A.The future of ChatGPT.B.The brilliance of ChatGPT.C.The development of ChatGPT.D.The arguments about ChatGPT.The world’s forests may hold more secrets than previously thought: a new global estimate of tree biodiversity suggests that there are about 9,200 tree species remaining undocumented. Most are likely in the tropics, according to the new research.The new research drew on the efforts of hundreds of contributors, who have categorized trees in two huge data sets: One, the Global Forest Biodiversity Initiative, records every species found in extensively documented forest plots worldwide. The other, TREECHANGE, puts together sightings of individual species. Together they suggest there are approximately 64,100 recorded tree species on the planet — up from previous estimates of around 60,000.The researchers reached their estimate of an additional 9,200 yet undocumented species on the basis of the number of rare ones already in the databases. Most unknown species are likely to be defined as rare, found in limited numbers in small geographical areas, says the quantitative forest ecologist Jingjing Liang. The team’s result is “a rather conservative estimate,” Liang says, “because scientists know less about the preponderance of uncommon trees in places such as the Amazon, where out-of-the-way spots could host pockets of unusual species found nowhere else.” “If we can focus the resources on those rain forests in the Amazon,” Liang adds, “then we would be able to estimate it with higher confidence.”Silman, a conservation biologist, who was not involved in the new study agrees that the study result is likely an underestimate. His and his colleagues’ local surveys suggest there are at least 3,000 and possibly more than 6,000 unknown tree species in the Amazon basin alone. Tree species often get grouped together based on appearance, he notes, so new genetic analysis techniques will likely lead to the discovery of even more biodiversity. Sliman wonders how many species will go extinct before scientists describe them. “How many are already known to native peoples in the Amazon — or were known to peoples or cultures who have themselves been made extinct through colonization, disease, or absorption? How many “species” already have dried samples sitting in a cabinet?” he says.Searching for the new species will inform not only conservation but the basic evolutionary science of how and why species diversify and die out, Silman says. “Just the fact that there are thousands of species of something as common as trees out there that are still left to be discovered,” he adds, “I find pretty inspirational.”12.What is the finding of the new research?A.About nine thousand new tree species have been identified.B.Thousands of tree species remain unknown to science.C.Maintaining tree diversity has become a global challenge.D.Human activities have led to the reduced number of trees.13.What can be learned about the research method?A.The researchers adopted quality method to analyze data.B.The researchers did extensive field study in out-of-the-way spots.C.Inferring from the existing dada is the main research method.D.Doing surveys and interviews is the main research method.14.What does the underlined word “preponderane” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A.majority B.evolution C.cultivation D.capability 15.According to Silman, one of the reasons for the underestimate of the tree species may be that ________.A.genetic analysis technique failed to produce accurate informationB.trees of similar sizes in the Amazon basin are grouped togetherC.too many rare trees were made into dried samples before being documentedD.the local peoples or the local cultures are not fully aware of the tree species.二、七选五When you feel down, you are expecting to receive support or comfort from your friends. Your friends feel the same way. However, it may be not easy to cheer up your friends when you can’t be by their side. 16Ask if there’s anything you can do to help. Different people prefer to be comforted in different ways. Ask if there’s anything specific you can do to help your friends. 17 While you’re talking on the phone, say something like, "What can I do to help? I’m always here if you need anything.18 This simple gesture can really brighten your friends’ day. If your friends are in need of comfort, send them frequent reminders that you’re thinking of them. Share something that reminded you of them. It will let your friends know that they’re still important in your life even if they’re far away.List why you think they’re special. 19 Send them a list of all the reasons why you think they’re amazing. Whether it be their kind and compassionate (富有同情心的) nature, their sense of style, or their ability to find the coolest music, tell them why you are so grateful to know them. After reading what you have listed, they will feel encouraged.Send them a gift. Surprise them with something special to make their day. Arrange for flowers to be delivered to their apartment or mail them one of their favorite albums. 20 A homemade gift, like a knitted (针织的) scarf or a piece of artwork, will lift their spirits all the same.A.Send a gift to them to celebrate their success.B.Thankfully, there are many ways you can help.C.Therefore, you can visit them to cheer them up.D.Text them to let them know they’re on your mind.E.You don’t have to go all out in terms of spending.F.If they’ve been down on themselves lately, they may need a reminder.G.The question alone will show you care, and they will appreciate your kind offer.三、完形填空Isabel Navarro has proved that hard work and a love for learning can help you achievethree obtained her General Equivalency Diploma (GED), which was extremely 32 for her as English is her second language.Navarro 33 Spring Valley Elementary School Principal Kappy Edwards. “I’m very proud of Isabel’s 34 and commitment to furthering her education, obtaining her GED and transforming into a new role within Spring Valley,” Edwards said. “This 35 shows her admirable devotion and serves as an inspiring example for others.”21.A.reserved B.abandoned C.presented D.set 22.A.joined B.respected C.admired D.become 23.A.struggled B.wanted C.declined D.managed 24.A.take advantage of B.make up of C.drop out ofD.lose sight of25.A.preparing B.providing C.accounting D.applying 26.A.withdrawing B.offering C.introducing D.finding 27.A.clean B.design C.watch D.use 28.A.decision B.impact C.choice D.effort 29.A.previously B.barely C.suddenly D.badly 30.A.serve B.accompany C.help D.attend 31.A.punctual B.dependent C.working D.suffering 32.A.essential B.tough C.unique D.urgent 33.A.impressed B.disturbed C.occupied D.benefited 34.A.caution B.kindness C.determination D.intelligence 35.A.discovery B.movement C.treasure D.achievement四、根据中英文提示填写单词quarrel.

Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework.

The family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading materialfor the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth. During their mission, the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters . And as from early 2010, the internet became available on the ISS , giving astronauts the chance to do some “web surfing (冲浪)”in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out the window and stare at the universe and the Earth’s vast land mass and oceans.12.

The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamins. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form(丸剂), believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nutritive food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn't need or use extra vitamins, so why they waste money on them?In the modern Western world,many people are too busy to bother about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs,eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.1.The sentence “Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat” really means ________.A. all kinds of food you eat can be made into your bodyB. your body is made up of the food you eatC. what you eat has a great effect on your healthD. the more you eat,the fitter you'll feel2.The old saying referred to in the passage tells us that______.A. eating apples regularly does lots of good to our healthB.the apple is the best among all kinds of fruitsC.apples can take the place of doctorsD.an apple is a sure cure for illness3.In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know________.A. our bodies need food,or we can't liveB.often eating apples is a good habitC.taking extra vitamin pills is completely uselessD.a good diet is of great importance to our health4.In the modern Western countries ________.A. people won't want to pay more attention to their eatingB.a list of people's illness are caused or made worse by bad eating habits C.people throw everything into their stomachs without chewing(咀嚼)D.people are only too busy to cook meals for themselvesBGetting a good education is more important today than ever before. It is the best thing you can do to build a better future for your children and yourself.Most children in Canada attend public schools. Public schools are completely founded by governments through tax (税收)income. Boys and girls attend the same school and share the same courses and classes. Schooling in Canada is provided in English and in French.The rest of Canadian children attend private schools, which are supported mainly by fees(费)paid directly by parents. Some private schools enroll (招收) only boys or girls.By law, children must attend school from age 5 to 16. Children are usually in school between 8:30 or 9:00 a. m. ,and 3:30 or 4:00 p. m. ,Monday through Friday, from September to the middle of June. There are several different levels in the Canadian education system. The first is called elementary schools. In most provinces elementary schools include kindergarten through Grade 7 or 8.From Grade 8 or 9 through 12 or 13,children go to secondary school or high school. High school students must take certain courses for several years, such as English or French and mathematics. Some courses help students get a job after they graduate from school. Other courses prepare students for college or university. In Canada,teenagers usually make these choices for themselves,with the advice of their teachers, guidance counselor (指导教师) and parents.Schools usually offer extra activities at the end of the normal school day. These include sports, games, music and clubs.Most elementary and high schools encourage parents to take part in school activities. Parents' nights are organized from time to time.

The name is new, but the idea isold. Young people and their parents don’t understand each other. The world hasalways kept changing. During the second century after Christ a wise man said, “Bury me on my face because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.”There has always been a gap between generations, but more people talk about it now. Old Mr. Ellis thinks he understands what has happened.“When I was a boy, I thought the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older, I learned about people who were treated badly, people who didn’t have enough to eat. I wanted to help them, and I married a girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to meetings and talked a lot, but it didn’t seem to make much difference. ”“Our children grew up in a world at war. They didn’t know when the fighting would stop. They wanted their children to have nice clothes and toys. They didn’t want to think about the future. They thought nothing could be done about it.”“Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own ideas. They are trying to make the world better. They are trying to help other people. They’re making people listen to them. I am proud of their generation.”8.
