B In my work as a vocational school teacher in Germany, some of my classes are full of students of different nationalities. More often than not, I will have a few refuges (难民) in the class, whose command of German is often rather incomplete regardless of whether they are blow-ins or not. Some of these students who manage to complete their three-year apprenticeships (学徒期) may actually continue to go to school to gain qualifications so they can attend university. In the past few years, I have taken them aside and given them tips on how to improve their language skills via books, newspapers, apps or online grammar quizzes. And I have given them tips on how to integrate themselves into the German culture better. Over the last few weeks, I have taken three young men aside and given them tips on how to improve their German such as joining sports clubs, finding ways to build their vocabulary outwith class and taking language immersion courses. After class, I actually even took a couple of them to a noticeboard which displayed valuable information on a poster and they were grateful for this little gesture that only took a minute of my time. I do not get any extra money for offering this sort of advice and I have sacrificed the odd break over the years, but I feel it is important to help the youngsters in what I consider a valuable way, because once they pass their exams, they will be likely to set up a home and spend their working life here. Good integration is so important as it builds bridges and expands horizons. It makes me happy to share my knowledge as a language teacher and spread those kindness ripples in everyday life. 4. What does the underlined word “blow-ins” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Newcomers. B. Announcers. C. Onlookers. D. Job seekers. 5. How does the author help the refugees? A. By qualifying them for apprenticeship. B. By enhancing their language competence. C. By integrating diverse cultures. D. By developing their interpersonal skills. 6. What does the author think of her deeds? A. Far-reaching. B. Time-consuming. C Pioneering. D. Demanding. 7. What does the author try to express through the text? A. One good turn deserves another. B. Everything comes to him who waits. C. A little kindness goes a long way. D. Actions speak louder than words. C Playing a musical instrument or singing could help keep the brain healthy in old age, UK researchers suggest. In their report, published in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry. they say music should be considered as part of a lifestyle approach to maintaining the brain. More than 1,100 people aged over 40, with a mean age of 68, were studied. Scientists observed their brain function data and looked at the effects of playing an instrument, singing. reading and listening to music, and musical ability. The researchers compared the cognitive (认知) data of those in the study who engaged in music in some way in their lives with those who never did. Their results showed that people who played musical instrument s benefited the most, which may be because of the “multiple cognitive demands” of the activity. Playing the piano or keyboard appeared to be particularly beneficial, while simply listening to music did not appear to help cognitive health. The benefit seen with singing might be partly because of the known social aspects of being in a choir or group, the researchers say. “Playing an instrument has a particularly big effect, and people who continue to play into an older are saw an additional benefit,” lead author Prof Corbett said. In the study, people who read music regularly had better numerical memory. “Our brain is a muscle like anything else and it needs to be exercised, and learning to read music is a bit like learning a new language — it’s challenging.” she said. Researchers did not test potential benefits of taking up a music al hobby for the first time later in life, but Phof Corbett said she believed, based on current evidence, it would be “very beneficial”. “The message is around how people can proactively reduce their risk of cognitive decline or dementia, and about engaging with music as a way of doing that.” However, Prof Corbett said, “It would be naive (幼稚的) to think taking up a musical instrument would mean you won’t develop dementia. It’s not as simple as that.” 8. What do researchers say about music? A. It offers a cure for mental disorder. B. It is supposed to be a lifestyle. C. It keeps old brains in good shape. D. It is cognitively demanding. 9. How does singing affect people? A. It makes them feel a sense of relief. B. It makes them feel morally superior. C. It makes them sort of socially active. D. It makes them better at reading music. 10. What’s Prof Corbett’s attitude towards taking up music in old age? A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Uncaring. D. Critical. 11. What does Prof Corbett intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To defend an argument. B. To make a prediction. C. To give an explanation. D. To correct a misconception. D In the vast desert plains of northwest Namibia, rhino (犀牛) trackers start a journey to monitor the desert-adapted black rhinos. These creatures, known for their poor eyesight, walk freely in this remote region. Led by Sebulon Hoeb, the principal field office r of Save the Rhino Trust Namibia, the tracker carefully approach a grazing rhino named Matty 2. identified by his partner Ebson Mbunguha. Despite the windy conditions working in their favor, they maintain a safe distance, aware of the potential danger of encountering these massive animals. Every day and night, devoted trackers and local community ranger s patrol (巡逻) the vast expanse of land, totaling 25, 000 square kilometers, where the desert-adapted black rhino thrives. Armed with extensive knowledge of the rhinos’ behaviors and characteristics, they carefully document their observations, contributing to conservation efforts and fighting poaching (偷猎), which remains a constant threat due to the high demand for rhino horns. Despite challenges, Namibia’s community conservation model has succeeded in protecting the rhino population. By prioritizing the preservation of wildlife and ensuring local communities to benefit from their natural resources, Namibia has become a lighthouse of conservation efforts in Africa. Save the Rhino Trust, established in 1982, has played a vital role in this achievement, witnessing a remarkable recovery in the black rhino population. The significance of community conservation is stressed by Namibia’s commitment to environmental protection, written in its constitution since gaining independence in 1990. With the establishment of shared conservancies covering over 20% of the country’s territory, Namibia has pioneered a sustainable approach that balances conservation with economic development. For the rhino rangers who devote their lives to safeguarding these iconic creatures, the job is rewarding. Living under the vast southern sky, they bear weeks of tented living, braving the dangers of tracking rhinos on foot. Despite the challenges, their serious commitment ensures the continued survival of the desert-adapted black rhino, a testament to the power of community-driven conservation efforts in preserving Earth’s oldest mammals. 12. What is the primary role of the rhino trackers? A. To relocate rhinos to other habitats. B. To record the exact population of rhinos. C. To offer rhinos food when necessary. D. To learn about the current situation of rhinos. 13. What can be learned about the rhinos in Namibia? A. They favor windy conditions. B. They will go extinct. C. They are easy to approach. D. They can be violent. 14. Which best describes the conservation efforts in Namibia? A. Limited. B. Fruitful. C. Inconsistent. D. Unnoticed. 15. What’s the text mainly about? A The community-driven rhino conservation efforts. B. The challenges facing rhino trackers in Namibia. C. The history of rhino poaching in Africa. D. The dangerous situation of rhinos. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A summary is an overview of a piece of writing, presented in your own words.

I’d been planning on getting healthy, but the number s showed that my vague efforts weren’t working at all. Weijing 325pounds, I found my blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure were all way over target. Things had to change. Dradically. But I was definitely not doing another diet of cramming (塞满) denial and shame down my throat until I hit some number on a scale. I was tired of watching the weight return again and again. bringing with it more guilt and shame. Clearly, I needed to make lifestyle changes. It occurred to me that I knew a lot about what didn’t work, since all my previous attempts had led me to this sorry state. I needed to get healthy, but in a slow, steady, rest-d-my-life kind of way. I’ve been a software developer for twenty-five years, so naturally I went to that skill set. I thought. “What if the system I need to redesign is me?” I decided to reboot (重启) my own system. Could I make it easy? Make it fun? That idea seems radical (过激的). It goes against diet culture and the advertising messages we’ve been bombarded with our entire lives. We’re told over and over that getting health y is difficult. No pain, no gain, right? But I found out it doesn’t have to be that way. I started upgrading my system by reviewing all the times I tried to get healthy in the past. I made a list of what didn’t work. Then I wrote down what did work, or at least worked for a while, and why it stopped working. There were some surprises. My membership at 15-Minute Fitness, for example, was a huge success. I worked out with a trainer for an intense fifteen minutes twice a week and saw huge gains. One by one, I went through every failed attempt. I realized that the consistent elements across all of them were guilt, shame and internal bullying. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then I came up with new rules. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After my first 100 days, I sat e big improvements. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2023—2024学年（下）安徽高二5月份阶段性检测 英语 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有2分钟的时间将试卷上的答案 转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳 选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例： How much is the shirt?

Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 【47题答案】 【答案】One possible version: Then I came up with new rules. Each rule was specifically tailored to address my previous failed attempts at getting healthy. Instead of forcing myself to have restrictive diets, I decided to focus on enjoyment and sustainability. I realized that treating myself with kindness and understanding was crucial for long-term success. Gradually, I started to notice a shift in my mindset. I no longer viewed healthy living as a chore but as a journey filled with opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Surprisingly, they turned out extraordinarily effective. After my first 100 days, I saw big improvements. I was eating better and had more energy as I followed these new, healthy behaviors. My blood sugar had dropped fifteen points, my blood pressure had dropped forty points, and I’d lost sixty pounds. My doctor called me her greatest success story. All of this was done with love and self-care. I finally made it without medication, without surgery and without beating myself up. Through this experience I got a deeper insight into the importance of healthy lifestyle and learnt the lesson that every drop of sweat counts. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
