"Paul and Rebel's story is so much more than running，" said Rebel's mother，Lou Ann. "Paul doesn't have many friends，so Rebel doesn't just guide him a traces.They also spend time together，" she said，telling jokes. "Paul is grateful for his young guide's direction." "Rebel directs me whether there's a ditch （沟）or there are hills，who encourages me to run faster." Paul said.In honor of their partnership，West Fork High School wrote a post on Facebook.Posting on Oct.6，2021，after a 5 K race at Chile Pepper where the boys achieved a personal record of 21 minutes，school representatives explained， "Rebel Hays has been helping Paul all season long.He is a promising runner，but more importantly，he has a huge heart!Thank you，Rebel!Thank you a lot!"According to Mile Split Arkansas，Paul said that his goal this year was to break 21 minutes；however，they missed it at Chile Pepper but achieved it at Yan Buren Pointer Classic，finishing with a time of 20：59：44.With the help and direction from Rebel，Paul finished 59th out of 135 runners in the 3 A boys race at the state Meet in Hot Springs in early November.Paul still has one more year of eligibility （资格） for cross-country and has now set a new goal of under 20 minutes.4.What did Rebel do as a guide runner to help Paul？______A.

Getting the qualification for cross-country.CSolving the mystery of the Loch Ness Monster would be considered as a good deed，right？On that basis，a webcam（网络摄像头） has been setup overlooking the lake.Anyone can tune in at any time.If you see something suspicious，you simply click the "snapshot" （快拍） button to submit a picture for further analysis.It is free，easy，and you can do it for as little or as long as you like，with no login or signup required.What you are doing is micro-volunteering，which offers volunteers a series of easy tasks that can be done anytime，anywhere，on their own terms.Micro-volunteering could involve anything from retweeting a message to joining a flash mob（快闪）.Volunteers don't need to go through an application or training process，or to make any ongoing commitment.The vast majority of micro-volunteering takes place online，but it doesn't have to.Weeding a garden in a local community center counts just as much.The key benefit of micro-volunteering is its flexibility.People frequently cite their lack of time as the biggest barrier to volunteering.For many，micro-volunteering removes the need to worry about making long-term commitmentsonce they start volunteering.It enables people who might lose interest in traditional ways of volunteering to participate.To some extent，micro-volunteering is an approach that aims to help lots of people come together to make a difference.It could take a while to see its impacts.Studies，however，have shown that 65 percent of those who have micro-volunteered are still actively doing so one year later.Even though micro-volunteering cannot replace long-term commitments，it serves as complement（补充）to the more traditional methods of promoting good causes.8.Why does the author mention the Loch Ness Monster in paragraph 1？______A. To illustrate a famous monster film.B. To introduce a new way to volunteer.C. To tell more information of the monster.D. To offer readers a series of volunteer tasks.9.What's the advantage of micro-volunteering？______A. It's available only online.B. Volunteers need receive training.C. It's flexible and time-wise.D. It needs long-term commitments.10.What can people expect of micro-volunteering in the future？______A. It could take the place of traditional volunteering.B. It might have a great influence on the world at once.C. It can make people have more ongoing commitments.D. It may offer more chances for people to make a difference.11.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？______A. Barriers to promoting good causesB. A wonderful complement to volunteeringC. Reflections on traditional ways of volunteeringD. An answer to the mystery of the Loch Ness MonsterDHow far back does your family tree go A hundred years？A thousand years？What about 6 to 7 million years？An ancient skull （颅骨） found in Africa suggests that the human family might be that old.Discovered in 2001 in the desert of Chad，the skull was nicknamed Toumai by scientists.Toumai is a rare find.The skull is nearlycomplete and it even includes a few teeth.The Toumai skull is estimated to be between 6 and 7 million yearsold.Scientists are debating whether the skull is linked to humans.The finding is not without controversy.Some scientists think that Toumai is the oldest known hominid （人科），or primitive human ancestor，ever found.Others say Toumai is an ape.Most hominids that scientists are aware of lived millions of years after Toumai.The most famous one is called Lucy.She lived in Ethiopia about 3.5 million years ago.While Lucy's face looked like the face of a chimpanzee，Toumai's skull has both human and ape-like features.Because Toumai's skull looks different from other hominid skulls，some scientists think Toumai represents a whole new species.Scientists were surprised to find a human-like face on a skull as old as Toumai's.They thought hominids turned into humans step by step over time.Scientists marked those changes on a timeline starting with a chimpanzee-like ancestor and ending with modern humans.Toumai's human-like face and chimp-sized brain suggest that the development of hominids was not so simple.There may not be a direct line leading from Toumai to Lucy tous.Instead，the timeline might be like a tree with lots of branches.Different species in different places could have evolved human-like features at different times.Scientists aren't sure where exactly Toumai belongs on our family tree.Toumai could be like a great-great grandfather---or just a distant cousin.Toumai could also be one of many types of hominids who wandered Earth millions of years ago.12.What can be inferred about the skull found in Africa？______A. It is connected with humans.B. It was named after a scientist.C. It may be the oldest chimpanzee.D. It is almost complete and unusual.13.What does the underlined word "controversy" in paragraph 3 mean？______A. Promotion.B. Cooperation.C. Argument.D. Prospect.14.How could hominids evolve into humans according to scientists？______A. They evolved in various ways.B. They developed like a tree with branches.C. They followed a direct line from Lucy to us.D. They had similar features in different places.15.What is the main idea of the text？______A. Toumai is probably the primitive human ancestor.B. A skull has an ape-like face and a human-like brain.C. How does Toumai skull fit into the human family treeD. How did a species evolve human-like features over time二、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。

广东省2023-2024学年高二上学期期末教学质量检测英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Romance, adventure, and excitement —all these words come to mind when travelers think of island getaways. Here are some islands for visitors to enjoy their charms in the National Park System.Isle Royale National Park, MichiganAs the largest island in Lake Superior, Isle Royale provides commercial accommodation, developed campgrounds, and undamaged wilderness. Travelers can hike through forest, boat along rocky shores, or camp beside beautiful lakes. Various boat services and ranger-guided trips give travelers the chance to explore the park.Channel Islands National Park, CaliforniaThose people who do make the boat trip can explore five major island groups that are home to globally significant biodiversity. From rare birds to blue whales, the world’s largest animal, Channel Islands is a wildlife film. Even a brief visit will bring sightings of seals, sea lions, sea otters, whales, and the largest colonies of seabirds in southern California.Acadia National Park, MaineIsle au Haut is a small island in Acadia National Park. The island can be reached by a mailboat from the little town of Stonington, a circumstance that limits the number of visitors. Much of the island can be seen on a day trip, exploring paths that wind through woodlands and the grass and along rocky shores. Sleeping on Isle au Haut makes it possible to enjoy sunrises and sunsets on the island.Biscayne National Park, FloridaTravelers can take a commercial tour boat to see Elliott Key, a park site with camping, swimming, and a hiking trail (路线). Those with their own boats can tour Adams Key. The best way to explore Biscayne’s islands is via boat, which can help see wildlife such as sharks, wading birds, and sea turtles.1．What can travelers do on Isle Royale?A.

In many regions of the country, it can take hours to get to the nearest hospital. Boateng said many people lost their lives due to preventable or treatable diseases. His grandmother and aunt were among them.Feeling an urgent ca ll to help, Boateng decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana where education and preventative health care were lacking.Boateng wanted to find a way to remove these barriers to health care access and education. He started his nonprofit organization, OKB Hope Foundation. In 2021, he converted (转变) a van (面包车) into a mobile doctor’s office and started bringing health care directly to those in need. A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities and provide free routine medical care.On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis (尿液分析) as well as provide medicine. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people, ” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another. Since its launch, the Hope Health Van has served more than 4,000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care, according to Boateng.Boateng has gone all in on his OKB Hope Foundation, recently quitting his job to dedicate his time to bringing health care to his home country. But for him, the sacrifices (牺牲) are well worth. “Words cannot describe the feeling that you provide care for someone who otherwise wouldn’t be alive if your mobile health van wasn’t there.” He has big plans for the future. He hopes to expand them to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but those in other countries.4．What is the purpose of mentioning the example in paragraph 1?A. To show the importance of life.B. To describe how hard Boateng’s family lived.C. To point out what’s wrong with the hospital.D. To stress the seriousness of lacking health care.5．How does Boateng carry out his mission?A. He operates on patients in the van.B. He rents a doctor’s office wherever he goes.C.

It serves the whole Ghana.D. It produces some good medicine.7．Which of the following best describe Boateng?A. Reliable and creative.B. Caring and ambitious.C. Considerate and humorous.D. Determined and demanding.Landscape architect Kotchakorn V oraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25 miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess (过度的) energy use, disrupted (扰乱) biodiversity or the heat island effect.The 236, 806-square-foot structure, which opened in December 2019, includes a flood water management system and Asia’s largest rooftop organic farm. It combines modern landscape architecture with traditional agricultural knowledge, creating a green and friendly environment.The green roof, containing an H-shaped landscape, looks like a futuristic hill with a brick building beneath it. The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces (之字形梯田) of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds, The excess water is directed into four storage ponds — with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains.The roof’s terraces are filled with organically grown crops, including a drought tolerant variety of rice, many local vegetables and herbs. The farm can supply the canteens on campus with a large amount of rice, herbs and vegetables a year. The food waste is composted (把……制成堆肥) to fertilize the farm, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system.The farm serves as an outdoor classroom and a source of local jobs, too. Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability curriculum. “Students and community members are invited to participate in se asonal seeding, harvesting, and so on,” says V oraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.”8．What can we say about V oraakhom’s work?A. It’s short-lived.B. It’s c reative.C. It’s demanding.D. It’s time-consuming.9．Why is the rooftop designed to be zigzag?A. To store more water.B. To plant diverse vegetables.C. To slow the speed of water flow.D. To make it look more attractive than other buildings.10．What can be inferred about the farm from paragraph 4?A. It uses food as fertilizer.B. It benefits the environment.C. It improves students’ lifestyle.D. It produces vegetables and fruits.11．What does the author want to show by mentioning the outdoor classroom?A. Students can learn hands-on knowledge on the farm.B. Farmers working on the farm can become professors.C. The farm prevents government from offering people jobs.D. The farm harms the relationship between university and community.Plastic is everywhere in our modern world. Its toughness makes it an extremely useful material from household items to vehicle parts, but that same toughness makes it hard to break down for recycling or disposal (处理). However, Japanese scientists at the University of Tokyo have developed a new plastic material that can be broken down more easily and can self-heal and remember past shapes.Based on a kind of plastic called an epoxy resin vitrimer, which is brittle (脆性的), the new plastic boasts a huge range of advantages. Once scratched with a knife, it can completely patch itself up after being heated to 150 ℃ for just 60 seconds. When shaped into the shape of a crane, then flattened, it can fold itself back into the crane shape by being heated up. It does all of this much faster than others of its type.The new plastic can also break down easier. Even if it’s discarded (丢弃) into the environment, it still poses less of a, problem than other kinds of plastic, which the teamdemonstrated by placing it in seawater for 30 days. It biodegraded by 25% and released molecules (分子) that are essential food for marine life.The new plastic is more resistant to breaking. It can also repair itself, and can recover its original memorized shape. It even biodegrades safely in a marine environment, according to Shota Ando, a researcher of the study.The material can be used in a variety of applications, “Infrastructure materials for roads and bridges are often composed of epoxy resins mixed with compounds such as concrete and carbon,” said Ando. “By using the new plastic, these would be easier to maintain as they would be stronger and healable using heat. Unlike conventional epoxy resins, this new material is hard but stretchable, so it could also be expected to strongly bond materials of different hardness and stretch.”12．What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 1?A. To introduce the topic of the text.B. To show the disadvantages of plastic.C. To highlight the importance of plastic.D. To indicate his views on previous plastic.13．What do the underlined words “patch itself up” mean in paragraph 2?A. Change itself.B. Shape itself.C. Repair itself.D. Burn itself.14．What do we know about the new plastic?A. It is safe for animals in the ocean.B. It can provide nutrition for animals.C. It can change its shape when frozen.D. It is more brittle than previous plastic.15．What can be the best title for the text?A. Research Of New MoleculesB. An Interesting Scientific StudyC. The Widespread Application Of PlasticD. A New Environmentally Friendly Plastic二、七选五16．Reading books is one of the best ways to broaden your horizons, develop your new interests, and grow your minds.
