四川省宜宾市普通高中2022届高三上学期第一次诊断测试英语试题
四川省宜宾市普通高中2022届高三上学期第一次诊断测试英语试题（含听力）学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Matt Haig, the best-selling author of the novel “The Midnight”, recommends some books that offer wisdom or comfort in difficult times.Letters to a Y oung Poet by Rainer Rilke (1929). This is the ultimate comfort read. The book is what the title suggests: letters from an older poet to a younger one. The great thing about Rilke’s advice is that it acknowledges the darkness and suffering of existence, yet manages despite that—or maybe even because of that—to inspire.When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön(1996). I read this book during the first lockdown, and it was the perfect read for uncertain times. Chödrön is a Buddhist, but the advice and philosophy in these relatively few pages speaks universally. It’s a great book about embracing life in its totality, about seeing hope and suffering as part of a whole.The House at Pooh Corner by A．A．Milne(1928). The Winnie-the-Pooh stories really speak to people going through tough times. In many ways, each of the characters reflects a different mental state: Eeyore is depressed, Tigger is hyper-active, Piglet is anxious, and Pooh reflects a hope and optimism much needed in recovery. I reread this book when I was ill with a panic disorder, and it soothed me.Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott (1994). In my opinion, this is the greatest book about writing ever written. But like Rilke, Lamott is offering far more than writing advice. She is offering wisdom on life and how to embrace its imperfect nature.1．Which book came out first?A．Bird by Bird.B．The Midnight.C．Letters to a Young Poet.D．The House at Pooh Corner.2．What can readers learn from When Things Fall Apart?A．The tough times are everywhere.B．Life consists of hope and suffering.C．People have a variety of mental states.D．The undesirable things of life can be ignored.3．What do the four books have in common?A．All contain inspiring advice.B．They are based on true facts.C．Matt Haig instructed their novelists.D．Writing will be improved by reading them.JANE GOODALL has achieved an incredible amount in her life. At the age of 26, she began to watch chimps(黑猩猩) in the wild. Years of much patience has paid off. As a researcher, she has changed our understanding of chimps—highly intelligent animals with unique cultures and tight family bonds. As a conservationist, she has encouraged generations of activists.A new documentary, Jane Goodall: The Hope, features footage spanning more than seven decades, including her early chimp work. The film picks up where the 2017 documentary Jane ended, focusing more on Goodall’s shift to environmental activism.“We’ve stopped actually following the chimps in our studies, and just have one person a day to monitor them .” She says in the film. She thinks this pandemic is waking people up. The impact of environmental destruction has been brought into focus by the covid-19 outbreak, she says, as a result of practices that bring different species into closer proximity with each other, creating opportunities for viruses to jump from animals to humans.Before the covid-19 pandemic shut borders, Goodall was travelling 300 days of the year, giving talks to packed theaters and meeting thousands of school children through her youth programme, Roots & Shoots, which runs in more than 60 countries.“Wherever I go there are young people with shining eyes wanting to tell Dr Jane what they’re doing to make this a better world.” she says.“They’re influencing their parents and grandparents. Some of their parents may be in government; some of them may be in big corporations.”Her message, one The Hope conveys clearly, is of the promise of collective action.“Hope depends on our taking action together soon. All of us, every single one of us, we’ve all got to do our bit.”4．Which of the following may agree with what Jane understands?A．Humans have family ties with chimps.B．Viruses spread from humans to animals.C．Chimps have the culture of their own.D．Species are easily separated by the covid-19.5．What is Jane’s attitude towards the youth’s action?A．Uncaring.B．Appreciative.C．Serious.D．Disappointed.6．What can be inferred from Jane’s message?A．She will quit researching on chimps.B．The young people will achieve her hope.C．She plans to film the next documentary.D．More people will join in environmental action.7．What’s probably the best title for the passage?A．The Youth Programme B．Remaining HopefulC．Shifting Roles D．A New DocumentaryAfter his father was rushed to the hospital, Yanatha Desouvre began to panic. So he did the one thing he knew would calm himself: He wrote. Over the next few weeks, Desouvre filled several notebooks, writing about his worry as well as his happy memories with his dad. “Writing allowed me to face my fear,” says Desouvre, “My pen was a tool to process the pain.”He is in good company. An extensive body of research shows benefits to writing about a traumatic (创伤) experience in a manner that psychologists refer to as “expressive writing.”James Pennebaker, a psychology professor, says that studies have looked at the potential benefits of expressive writing and found that it can strengthen the immune system, including for people with illnesses such as cancer, depression, and PTSD(创伤后应激障碍). It can also help reduce chronic pain(慢性痛), and improve mood, sleep, and memory. And it may even help reduce symptoms of depression and PTSD．Expressive writing works because it allows you to make meaning out of a painful experience, experts say. It can be a powerful coping tool for many, in large part because it helps reduce the secrecy people often feel about a trauma, as well as their reluctance to face emotions. The mere act of labeling a feeling—of putting words to an emotion—can hold back the neural activity in the threat area of the brain. Writing can increase someone’s acceptanceof their experience, and acceptance is calming.Recognizing that something is bothering you is an important first step. Translating that experience into language forces you to organize your thoughts. And creating a narrative gives you a sense of control.8．Why is Desouvre’s story mentioned in Paragraph 1?A．To bring up the topic.B．To make a comparison.C．To tell readers a real story.D．To explore the key to writing.9．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A．The results traumatic experience causes.B．The benefits that expressive writing brings.C．The symptoms traumatic experience shows.D．The ways expressive writing strengthens immunity.10．What can we conclude about expressive writing?A．It contributes to better writing.B．It lets us know how people obtain pain.C．It can help face miserable experience.D．It has been used widely in the daily life.11．Where is the passage probably taken from?A．A text book.B．A news report.C．A writing guide.D．A medical magazine.A major new facility to pull CO2 out of the atmosphere has started operating in Iceland, which is a boost to an emerging technology that experts say could eventually play an important role in reducing greenhouse gases.The plant in southwest Iceland is the biggest of its kind, its builder says. It is able to capture 900 tons of CO2 every year but it needs heat and electricity to work. It is using energy produced from waste and is built on the roof of a waste incineration plant, and through the burning of rubbish, energy is generated.Human-sized fans are built into a series of boxes. They take CO2 out of the air, catching it in sponge like filters(过滤器). The filters are blasted with heat freeing the gas, which is then mixed with water and pumped deep into deep underground basalt caves, where over time it turns into dark-gray stone. Pumping CO2 into the ground is just one way to deal with it. The makers are also selling the gas to be used again. The CO2 can be captured just a few 100 miles away. It is pumped through an underground pipe line directly into a greenhouse. Vegetables and plants love CO2 and higher concentrations of the gas within the greenhouse improve the growth of plants.By 2050, humanity will need to pull nearly a billion metric tons of CO2 from the atmosphere every year through direct air capture technology to achieve carbon neutral(碳中和) goals, according to International Energy Agency recommendations. The plant in Iceland will be able to capture 4,000 metric tons annually—just a small amount of what will be necessary, but one that Clime works, the company that built it, says can grow rapidly as efficiency improves and costs decrease.12．What does the underlined word “boost” mean in Paragraph 1?A．Promotion.B．Advertisement.C．Decrease.D．Innovation.13．What do we know about the new facility ?A．It uses waste to get power.B．It is built at high water level.C．It makes Iceland free of air pollution.D．It produces lots of heat during operation.14．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A．The ways of breaking down CO2.B．The approaches to reusing waste gas.C．The necessity of building greenhouses.D．The workings of the carbon-catching plant.15．What can be expected from the direct air capture technology?A．Decreasing the cost of energy production.B．The rapid reduction of CO2 levels in the air.C．The early realization of the carbon neutral goals.D．The disappearance of the traditional carbon treatment.二、七选五Some believe dreams may reflect who we actually are, what we often do and what we believe or need. ___16___Teeth falling out___17___ They can reflect your anxieties about your appearance and how others perceive you. Besides, as teeth are used to bite, tear and chew, dreams about losing your teeth can result from a sense of powerlessness which means you may be experiencingself-confidence issues.Unable to find a toiletHaving trouble finding a toilet means you may be finding it difficult to express your needs in a certain situation. It can represent feelings of your personal needs not being met by always putting others first. ___18___ So you want to need more privacy, self-care orself-expression.Unprepared for an examExam dreams can be so real that we actually wake up convinced we just failed an important test. At least 1 in every 5 people will experience an exam dream in their lives. Exam dreams are a reflection of your lack of confidence in the future. ___19___Being lateDreaming that you are late represents your worry and anxiety about taking a different direction in your life, or that you are trying to get things done. ___20___Your unconscious might be telling you that it is never too late to do things you want in your life.A．But you feel that you are running out of time.B．It means insecurity and anxiety about a position.C．You are unable to advance to the next stage in life.D．It’s true that dreams can mirror patterns of human behavior.E．Dreams about this are associated with health problems.F．Such dreams may stem from a fear of feeling unattractive.G．You may feel that you’re lacking something for personal issues.三、完形填空I was born with no arms.

But top executives have argued a report that Disney wants to build another one in Beijing in time for the 2008 Olympics.Disney has plans to bu ild a Hong Kong park that is scheduled to open in 2005 or 2006. ―Our job is to make the Hong Kong Disneyland work and be successful.‖ Disney chairman and chief executive Michael Eisner said. He said the company might later build a second park in China, tho ugh he would not say where. ―I‘m sure someday there will be a possibility to build another Disney theme park that would be geographically so distant from Hong Kong that they will not compete.‖When Disney was in talks with Hong Kong about building the park here, officials in Shanghai made it clear they would rather have the park. Disney executives said they were concerned about border controls that could slow visitors from the Chinese mainland who want to come to the Hong Kong theme park. They also said they had raised the issue with Hong Kong and Beijing. Although Hong Kong was returned from Britain to China four years ago, strict border controls remain in place between the capitalist territory and the mainland.51) This passage is a _______.a. newspaper reportb. magazine advertisementc. short storyd. talk52) From the first paragraph, we can get the following information except _______.A.The Walt Disney Company has decided to build a theme park in ChinaB.It is possible that they will build a second one in ChinaC.The second theme park will be built in BeijingD.The 2008 Olympics will be held in Beijing53) The Hong Kong Disneyland is ________.a. not open yetb. successfulc. working welld. distant54) The underlined word ―the issue‖ in paragraph 3 probably refers to _______.A.

Hong Kong Disney theme park( B )If you own a car in a big city, the chances are good that your car radio has already been stolen, or soon will be. Maybe even the car itself. The theft of car radio and car itself is a common crime in the United States, more than 1 million cars and many more radios are pilfered every year--- and the numbers are rising. Traditional car alarms, with the wailing sirens , simply aren‘t an effective device because a professional thief can steal a car or radio in seconds , long before car owners orpolice respond to an alarm .To help solve the problem, a Stockholm company, Ultrapro, has developed what is called is an almost foolproof antitheft system. The product is designed to prevent the would-be thieves from breaking into cars, but is also include a shocking surprise for those who do that. The system, which was tested for a year, in both mechanical and electrical in its operation. Its locks can not open from the outside .A thief must either use heavy tools to pry open a door, which takes precious time and would be obvious to passers-by or police, or smash a window and crawl inside.If a thief should smash a window or pry open a car door, he will be the centre of attention, because the car horn will begin blaring and its lights flashing .If he goes on , and sits down on the front seat , an unseen threat is waiting – a 9,000 volt electric shock in the seat of his pants .

Here is some information about making international phone calls.You can now phone almost any country in the world, although in some cases you can only call major cities. When you cannot make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else; in this case you should ask for a ―person-to-person‖ call. Even more expensive is a reverse charge call where the person who receives the call pays.If the international line is busy, you can reserve a call; explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.You can save money by calling outside office hours, e.g. early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays.Remember that the time may be different in the country you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time); London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead.There is one problem: change to DST (Daylight Saving Time) for the Summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in Spring and put back in Autumn, and so London is actually one hour ahead of GMT in the Summer.You can use your Business Telecard International for domestic calls as well, but there will be an additional charge over the standard rate.61) What is ―a reverse charge call‖?A. An international call.B. A very expensive call.C. A call for which the person who receives the call pays.D. A call to major cities.62) What is the most expensive type of call?a. direct dial.b. through the operator.c. reverse charge call.d. calling outside office hours.63) According to the passage, what can you do if the international line is busy?a. book a call.b. make a ―person-to-person‖ call.c. call back outside office hours.d. give up.64) When is it cheaper to make an international call?a. 10 a.m.b. 4 p. m.c. 11 p. m.d. 3 hours ahead of GMT.65) How many hours is Moscow ahead of London during the summer?a. 1b. 2c. 3d. 4( D)Peter Fern was mad on mountain. Climbing was the love of his life. Church towers, seaside cliffs, rock faces ice mountains, anything-―If it‘s there‖ he used to say, ―then I want to climb it.‖ So the news of his marriage gave me a surprise.

Chamonix, wasn‘t it?From Chamonix he‘s climbed Mont Blanc on his seventeenth birthday, and one of the Aifuilles the day after! That was it, then: she was French, from a family, most of whom like climbing. No doubt. No other explanation.A month later I met them both in town. Anna surprised me because she was English. She was a dancer in the theatre. ―Never climbed more than sixty steps in my life.‖ She told me. ―Peter has his interests, and I‘ve got mine. No problems.‖ ―No problems.‖ ―None at all,‖ Peter said, smiling.―Where did you spend your honeymoon?‖ ―I flew to New York to see the drake Dancers on Broadway. A wonderful show!‖ Peter said, ―Didn‘t want to miss the good weather. SO I went to Switzerland and climbed the north face of the Eiger with Allen Dunlop. Great fun, the Eiger.

The sooner the meteorologists（气象学家）could do so, the earlier they could warn those in the path of damaging wind gusts and fierce storm surges By six days ahead of landfall, it was clear that Lee （22）________（follow）the eastward path, and warnings were issued, accordingly.

S. Food and Drug Administration （FDA）recently approved the drug Aduhelm, produced by American biotechnology company Biogen with Japan's Eisai Co., to treat patients with Alzheimer's（老年痴呆症）disease. The approval was based on study results showing that the drug seemed“（31）________ likely” to benefit Alzheimer's patients, the FDA said.The decision, which could （32）________ millions of Alzheimer's patients and their families, has sparked disagreements among medical researchers.

The rate of mental decline in patients that had been administered Aduhelm was slowed by 22 percent when compared to patients who had received a placebo（安慰剂）. But even given these results, on a test that is conducted to evaluate the cognitive and （34）________ abilities of a patient, patients who were administered Adubelm only showed an increase of 0.39 in their- scores. And it's unclear how such metrics （度量标准）translate into practical benefits, like greater（35）________ or the ability to recall important details.The FDA's review of the drug has become a flashpoint in （36）________ debates over standards used to evaluate therapies for hard- to- treat conditions.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Some people like to read the instructions from start to finish before they take action while others study the diagrams and then jump right in. This 41 for one approach over another when learning new information is not uncommon. Indeed, the notion that people learn in different ways is such a universal belief in American culture that there is a thriving industry dedicated to 42 learning styles and training teachers to meet the needs of different learners.Just because a notion is popular, 43 , doesn't make it true. A recent review of learning styles found evidence to clearly support the idea that outcomes are 44 when instructional techniques align with （匹配）individuals' learning styles. Most previous investigations on learning styles focused on classroom learning, and assessed whether instructional style 45 outcomes for different types of learners. But is the 46 really where most of the serious learning occurs? Some might argue that, in this era of flipped classrooms and online course materials, students 47 more of the information on their own. That might explain why instructional style in theclassroom matters little. It also 48 the possibility that learning styles do matter. Perhaps a 49 between students' individual learning styles and their study strategies is the key to ideal outcomes.To explore this 50 , researchers asked students enrolled in an anatomy class （解剖课）to complete an online learning styles assessment, answer questions about their study strategies and report details about the 51 they used outside of class（e. g. flash cards, review of lecture notes, anatomy coloring books）.Scores suggested that most students used multiple learning styles, but that no particular style 52 better outcomes than another. The focus in this study, however, was not on whether a particular learning style was more53 . Despite knowing their own, self- reported learning preferences, nearly 70% of students 54 to employ study techniques that supported those preferences. Given the popular belief that learning styles matter, and the fact that many students 55 poor academic performance on the lack of a match between their learning style and teachers' instructional methods, one might expect students to rely on techniques that support their personal learning preferences when working on their own.41. A. preference B. tendency C. phenomenon D. practice42. A. identifying B. exposing C. revealing D. establishing43. A. therefore B. moreover C. however D. instead44.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled （摸索）in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could barely get it to my lips. But I had no matches; they had taken those. I looked through the bars at my jailer. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him, “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the match, his eyes unconsciously locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one toanother, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and generated a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.I kept smiling at him, now aware of him as a person and not just a jailer. And his looking at me seemed to have a new dimension too.“Do you have kids?” he asked.“Yes, here, here.”I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently led me out. Out of the jail, quietly and by back routes, out of the town. There, at the edge of town, he released me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.My life was saved by a smile, yes, the smile- the unaffected, unplanned, natural connection between people. I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could recognize each other, we wouldn't be enemies. We couldn't have hate or envy or fear.56. The underlined sentence indicates that the author and the jailer started to have a ________ conversation.A. less impersonalB. more intenseC. less formalD. more friendly57. Which is true based on the first paragraph?A. My hands were shaking because of fear.B. The jailer was going to shoot me.C. I smile8 because I had to beg for life.D. He smiled to me because he wanted to.58. Their eyes were filled with tears because they both ________.A. took out the pictures of their familiesB. missed their families far awayC. had plans and hopes for futureD. feared that they would die59. How does a smile succeed in saving the author's life?A. By asking for the jailer to light a cigarette.B. By planning for an exchange of family pictures.C. By establishing natural connection between people.D. By hiding the human feelings of hate, envy or fear.（B）CareersHome The UN Workforce Pay and Benefits Career Journeys Career Options How to Apply Apply Now Home>> How To ApplyFAQs on preparing your ApplicationQ: Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening（JO）?A: Yes.

Is it possible that we will ever find it? Or, more importantly did it even exist?The short answer to both: No. All available evidence indicates that the philosopher Plato, sometime around 360 B. C., invented the island nation to illustrate a point about the dangers of aggressive imperialism（势力扩张）. In Plato's telling, Atlantis was no utopia. Rather, it was a centrist to an idealized version of Athens from long before Plato's time. This ancient Athens was very similar to Plato's notion of the ideal state. Plato laid out the details for what such a state would look like in his famous work, I he Republic. It should be small and virtuous. The residents of Atlantis, on the other hand, were eventually “filled with an unjust lust for possessions and power," according to Plato's character who described the island.In Plato's texts, Atlantis was “larger than Libya and Asia combined,”（which, in Plato's time. would have referred to modern- day northern Africa and over half of Turkey）. It was situated in the Atlantic Ocean, somewhere outward from the Strait of Gibraltar. It's a landmass large enough that, if it really existed somewhere underwater in the Atlantic, it would certainly appear on sonar maps of the ocean floor.So how did Atlantis come to represent a lost utopic civilization? For that, you can mostly blame （or thank）Ignatius Donnelly. In 1882, the former U. S. Congressman published Atlantis. The Antediluvian World. The book laid out 13 hypotheses, centered on the idea that Atlantis had truly existed, and indeed represented a place “where early mankind dwelt for ages in peace and happiness. According to Donnelly, Atlantis was the original source of many ancient civilizations around the world. If one followed the clues in Plato's writing, Donnelly believed, Atlantis could be found. He was inspired by a remarkable discovery in the early 1870s. An amateur archaeologist claimed to have unearthed the legendary city of Troy based on Homer's The Iliad. If Troy, long thought to be fictional, was real, why shouldn't Atlantis be, too?Donnelly was certain of his theory, predicting that hard evidence of the sunken city would soon be found, and that museums around the world would one day be filled with artifacts from Atlantis. Yet about 140 years have passed without a trace of evidence. The Atlantis legend has been kept alive, fueled by the public's imagination and fascination with the idea of a hidden. long- lost utopia. Yet the “lost city of Atlantis was never lost; it is where it always was: in Plato's books.63. What can we learn about Plato?A. He predicted that Atlantis would be' destroyed by aggressive imperialism.B. He was inspired by utopia to gradually form the notion of the ideal state.C. He created the setting in which residents of Atlantis were not virtuous.D. He witnessed Atlanteans' pursuit of an unjust lust for possessions and power.64. Homer's The Iliad is mentioned ___________.A. to demonstrate the actual existence of the legendary city of Troy.B. as indirect evidence of the credibility of Plato's account of Atlantis.C. because it is a great piece of fictional writing about an ancient legend.D. because it contains many clues about the legendary city of Troy.65. According to the passage, Atlantis was ___________.A. a long- lost small utopia with many virtuous residents.B. a large landmass situated in the Atlantic Ocean.C. the original source of many ancient civilizations.D. Plato's invention against which to highlight his ideal.66. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Plato, Atlantis and How the City Collapsed and Finally Got LostB Plato Told a Lie, and Ignatius Donnelly was to Blame for ItC. The History, Legends, and Evidence of the Lost City of AtlantisD. Where Is the Lost City of Atlantis — and Does It Even Exist?Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. In addition to painting on canvas, Crisco also paints on musical instruments.B. However, no matter what the scene is, none of the paintings focus on the darkness.C. His paintings take you on an unknown adventure into an unknown space, reminding you to be alert and brave.D. Through the use of glowing paint. he brings a sense of magic and energy to the scenes that he creates.E. Studies have shown that expressing themselves. through art can help people with depression and anxietyF. As a self- taught artist s be found his passion for art at a dark time in his life when he found himself suddenly out or work.Bringing Light to the Darkness with Crisco ArtMost paintings are best enjoyed in galleries with good lighting. But an Italian artist who goes by the name Crisco is changing the way we look at paintings with a new approach: glow （发光）- in- the- dark paint.Crisco's paintings are beautiful in normal lighting, but it is when the lights go down that they really come alive. （67）_________ His art mostly shows landscapes. Trees, horizons, and especially starry skies come alive with the glow of his paints. At the center of most of his work, there is often a human or animal figure. The figure may be just a shadow surrounded by the glowing colors, but it often appears to be the source of the light. （68）_________ Instead, they are all bright pictures of hope, life, wonder, and growth. They are Crisco's way o t adding a little light to the world.Crisco's full name is Cristoforo Scorpiniti.（69）_________ Instead of letting a negative experience get the best of him, he threw himself into a new pursuit: art. According to Crisco, he paints with glowing colors to inspire hope. Though his paintings often show night scenes that look good in the dark, Crisco does not focus on the darkness.Instead, he uses his paintings to express positivity by creating light in the darkness.A lot of his best work has come out of just painting what he felt at the time without any plan or structure.（70）_________ With over half a million followers on Instagram, Crisco is already popular on social media for his unique paintings. He'll surely only get more famous in the future for his inspiring paintings that beautifully mix darkness and light.IV. Summary Writing71. Directions: Read the following passage. 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.Are EV Really Environmentally Friendly?Many consumers are opting for an electric vehicle （EV）or plug- in hybrid electric vehicle （PHEV）to replace their polluting gas- powered cars. These electrified vehicles are rising to popularity on the premise of environmental conservation and eliminating the need for harmful emissions. There are a couple of things. however, to consider before concluding that EVs are the most environmentally friendly option for consumers.Where do electric cars get their energy? Although EVs create no emissions on board, they typically draw power from lithium- ion batteries. These batteries require charging, either at home or via a publicly accessible charging station. Since EV charging infrastructure is mainly reliant on the power grid - specifically, the grid draws power from plants like coal plants - although your EV does not produce any harmful emissions as you drive it, burning fossil fuels is involved in fueling it. Moreover, temperature extremes like excessive coldness or heat can dramatically reduce lithium- ion battery life. Carnegie Mellon University's Department of Engineering and Technology says that the most extreme cases of coldness will compromise efficiency by as much as 40%. The decreased efficiency is an issue if the power stored in the battery packs of EVs is sourced from fossil fuel- burning.Besides the power source, metal s such as lithium and cobalt are wrapped up in environmentally and socially questionable processes, too. One of the first environmental issues lithium batteries pose is how to dispose of them properly. In an average battery recycling plant, all parts of the battery are shredded into a powder using a mechanical shredder and then either melted or dissolved into acid — recycling lithium batteries isn't as simple. Lithium batteries are typically made up of a mix of different elements including cobalt, nickel, manganese and iron —cobalt especially known to be a hazardous substance. In addition, most studies associate lithium mining in South America from salt brine with salinization（盐化）of freshwater that the locals need to survive. Since the mineral contains dangerous substances, the mining process also contaminates the local water basins. So, lithium extraction exposes the local ecosystems to poisoning and other related health problems.V.

His first post explored the use of English font (字体) on Hong Kong's road signs. “That post surprisingly received many likes and shares, so it got me thinking abo ut expanding my audience,” he recalled.In 2016, the enthusiast collected 50 Chinese characters from Hong Kong's road signs and outlined and uploaded the image to his Facebook account. A friend suggested turning this collection into a font. Yau saw it as a means to preserve a cherished aspect of Hong Kong's history. About twenty years ago, many of the city's signs featured handcrafted characters made by prisoners. However, as design technology adsances, these tradi tional signs are gradually being replaced,Following. yisits the remaining traditional road signs in the city, Yau's team had outliried approximatel y 500 characters. Yet, this fell short of the 7,000 Chinese characters required for practical use by those who us e Chinese daily. Faced with this limitation, the team began ercating new characters by mixing and matching existing components, adjusting line thickness, and modifying radicals (部首). For instance, when they couldn' t locate the Chinese character for“prison” on any existing signs, they designed one from scratch. This process英语测试题第2页 (共10页)involved extensive trial and error.After six years of dedicated effort, Yau found motivation in the constant enthusiasm of his follower s. “They’ ve been cagerly anticipating this project for as long as l' ve been working on it,” he remarked. “O ne even expressed that he had been waiting for this font since his first year of secondary school. Now, as a sixth grader, his wait is finally over.Yau is thrilled to witness how his followers will use this digital font.“I cannot own a road sign. but what I can do is digitize it,” Yau said. “I did not want to just document it but develop it into something we can use in daily life. This is a way to preserve Hong Kong's visual cultural memory.”4. What inspired Yau to design a font?A. His interest in road signs.B. His popularity with his fans.C. His desire to restore history.D. His passion for city planning.5. Why did Yau's team create new characters?A. To combine the components.B. To meet the need of daily use.C. To set limitation to the characters.D. To replace the traditional road signs.6. Why did the writer mention Yau's followers?A. To highlight their dedicated cfYort.B. To show their support to the project.C. To explain their role in digitizing the font.D. To indicate their passion to share his posts.7. Which of the following can best describe Yau?A. Practical and efficient.B. Confident and resourceful.C. Determined and innovative.D. Ambitious and competitive.CThe field of anti-ageing medicine has exploded in recent years due to discoveries about the fundamen tal biology of ageing which are translated into experimental therapies (疗法). The latest fountain of youth to pour from the lab comes in the form of vaccines (疫苗) against age-related conditions—— cancer, heart dise ase, dementia and more. The first of these could be available by the end of the decade. All-purpose anti-agei ng injections are also in development.The upsides of such vaccines are clear. Anything that limits the impact of age-related conditions on people who live into old age— not to mention on the loved ones who often end up caring for them— has to be welcomed. They also promise to lessen effect on the increasingly societal and economic costs of these dis eases.英语测试题第3页 (共10页)But as with all anti-ageing interventions, there are potential downsides too. If millions of people livesignificantly longer, we risk a population explosion on a planet whose resources are already overstretched. If t he vaccines merely delay the beginning of age-related conditions, they will only postpone the burden on peopl e and society. And as Nobcl prizewinner Venki Ramakrishnan told us carlier this year. a long-lived society islikely to be an unmoving one. These are familiar fears. The common answer is that the goal is increased healt hspan. That means people living for longer. free from the diseases of old age, then suddenly declining anddying.We wońt know the-outcome until : the therapies have been widely used, at which point it will be too late to put the genie back in the bottle. But there is really no turning back anyway. If vaccines and other anti-ageing therapies work and are affordable, they will be used. Besides, nɔbody would argue that innovation s like antibiotics, vaccines and advanced diagnostics were a bad idea even though they marked the beginning of our era of age-related diseases. Similarly, we shouldn't fear life-saving medical advances on the basis of un intended consequences. If we can make lives longer and less painful, the downsides are a price worth paying.8. Why is the field of anti-ageing medicine growing rapidly?A. The biology of ageing is better applied.B. The trend of healthy lifestyle is rising.C. The demand for longer life is increasing.D. The number of elderly is rising globally.9. How do anti-ageing vaccines benefit society?A. By increasing the workforce.B. By curing people of diseases.C. By boosting economic growth.D. By reducing healthcare expense.10. What does the underlined phrase“put the genie back in the bottle” mean?A. To stop the process of ageing.B. To erase the impact of the therapics.C. To create a new medical breakthrough.D. To delay the development of technology.11. What is the best title for this article?A. Can Anti-Ageing Medicine Really Work?B. What Is the Risk of Anti-Ageing Medicine?C. How to Stay Young with Anti-Ageing Medicine?D. Is It Worthwhile Using Anti-Ageing Medicine?英语测试题第4页 (共10页)DFranz Katka (卡夫卡) died 100 years ago with his literary works unnoticed. He had instructed his friend Max Brod to burn his unpublished works. Brod did not: he believed Kafka to be a literary genius and publishe d his late friend's writing. In other words, Brod decided that Kafka's stories belonged not to the late author, but to the public.Brod's dilemma echoes today. People generate' more data than ever, which, unlike physical bodies, does not disappear. According to Carl Ohman, a Swedish political scientist. this condition makes the modern world“post-mortal”(死后的).“Living in the post-mortał condition is to constantly find oneself in the shoes of Max Brod", he observes.The digital era has reshaped humans’ relationship with the dead—— as seen in social media reminders for birthdays of dead individuals. Such reminders are to grow more common: Mr. Ohman's research has foun d that on Facebook the dead may well outnumber the living within 40 years. Advanced technology enables a continued relationship with the dead, such as Amazon's development of a feature for Alexa, virtual assistant, to speak in the voice of a lost relative. Startups have used data to make chatbots of the dead-to strengthen use rs’ commercial relationship, Mr. Ohman points out.At the root of Ohman's book The Aftorlife of Data is various complex philosophical questions. To whom do the dead's data belong? Are data something people create, or a digital analogue (类比) to a physica l body? If data are a digital form of the body, what responsibilities does the living have? These are not merel y questions for individuals but for society. After all, historians often study the diaries of the dead. Their write rs may have preferred to keep them private, but the light that such documents can shine on humanity's past outweighs the late owner's wishes. Mr. Ohman: notes that data constitute“the biggest database of human behavioùr in the history of our species”. And he urges that the social media firms should think twice in terms of how they handle digital remains.12. What is the function of paragraph 1?A. To emphasize Kafka's literary talent.B. To lead to the discussion on data handling.C. To praise the act to publish Kafka's works.D. To write an introduction for Ohman's book.13. Why do people buy Alexa, the virtual assistant?A. To create a digital database.B. To control devices by voice.C. To access information quickly.D. To communicate with the dead.14. What problem will people face in post-mortal world according to the passage?A. How to manage the dead's data.B. How to realize the dead's wishes.C. How to protect the dead's privacy.D. How to restore the dead's. belongings.15. Which of the following will Mr. Ohman probably agree with?A. Data should be in the possession of individuals.B. Historians should control access to digital remains.C. Data's historical value is more important than the dead's will.D. Social media firms should be fined for misuse of digital remains.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)在后面的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
