B As a science teacher, I am always looking for creative ways to engage my students and make learning fun. One of my most memorable experiences involved an egg, a bottle, and a group of curious 4th graders. We were learning about air pressure, and I had planned a simple experiment to demonstrate (展示) the concept, I brought a hard-boiled egg, a glass bottle with a narrow neck, and a small piece of paper. The objective was to get the egg inside the bottle without breaking it. I gathered my students around the table and asked them how they thought it could be done. The children shared their ideas, and we discussed the scientific reasons behind each suggestion. It was fascinating to see their minds at work, trying to solve the problem. Then, I lit the piece of paper on fire and dropped it into the bottle. As the flame consumed the oxygen inside, the air pressure decreased. I quickly placed the egg on top of the bottle, and to the amazement of my students, the egg was sucked inside. The room was filled with gasps and excited chatter, as the children marveled (惊叹) at the demonstration. This simple experiment sparked (引发) their curiosity and reinforced the concept of air pressure in a fun and memorable way. Looking back, I feel deeply grateful for moments like these, where the joy of learning comes alive in the classroom. It’s not just about teaching a subject, but about fueling a spark of curiosity and a love for discovery in every student. These moments are what truly make teaching a rewarding career, as they remind me of why I chose to become a teacher — to inspire and guide the next generation of explorers on their journey towards knowledge and understanding. 4. Why did the author do the experiment? A. To visually explain what air pressure is. B. To teach students how to cook with eggs. C. To entertain the students with a magic trick. D. To find out which students were the most curious. 5. How did the students respond to the author’s question? A. They were confused about the question. B. They showed no interest in the experiment. C. They actively talked and exchanged views. D. They lowered their heads and did their homework. 6. Which words can best describe the author’s experiment? A. Dangerous and boring. B. Amazing and educational. C. Interesting but useless. D. Enjoyable but worthless. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. The Magic of Eggs and Bottles B. Air Pressure and Its Applications C. Sparking Curiosity: An Unexpected Failure D Exploring Air Pressure: A Memorable Lesson C A new study conducted among nearly 500, 000 individuals found an association between black tea consumption and a moderately (适度) lower death risk. Findings were published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, According to results, the death risk was lowest among individuals who drink two cups of black tea or more per day. Tea is one of the most popular beverages around the world and previous research has shown a link between green tea consumption and the lower death risk. To better understand any associations in populations that primarily consume black tea, researchers assessed all-cause and cause-specific death of 498,043 individuals between the ages 40 and 69 included in the U. K. Biobank. Participants completed the baseline questionnaire between 2006 and 2010 and were followed up with for an average of 11.2 years. Eighty-five percent of participants reported regularly drinking tea, of whom 89 percent reported consuming black tea. Compared with individuals who did not consume tea, these participants had a 9 to 13 percent lower death risk. The association remained even after researchers adjusted for participants’ coffee consumption, or milk or sugar added to tea. Tea temperature at the point of consumption also did not change results. “These findings suggest that tea, even at higher levels of intake, can be part of a healthy diet,” authors wrote. “Tea is rich in bioactive elements that can reduce stress and inflammation (炎症), but people shouldn’t change how many cups of tea to drink every day because of these results.” said study co-author Maki Inoue - Choi, an epidemiologist (流行病学家) at the National Cancer Institute, in a statement to TIME, “Because this study was observational in nature, randomized clinical trials are needed to prove black tea consumption causes a lower death risk.” 8. The focus of the new research was to ______ A. analyze tea consumption patterns globally. B. determine death causes among tea drinkers. C. compare health benefits of black and green tea. D. explore the link between black tea and death risk. 9. How does the author mainly organize the third paragraph? A. By providing related data, B. By comparing different types of tea. C. By presenting previous research findings. D. By discussing the participants’ experiences. 10. What can we learn from Maki Inoue-Choi’s words? A. People should drink less tea every day. B. Scientists tend to prefer black tea to green tea. C. More work needs to be done to prove the study result. D. People should adjust their tea intake based on the study. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To sell more tea products. B. To report on a new study. C. To show the research methods. D. To encourage people to drink tea. D For young children, impulse (冲动) control and self-regulation at school can affect how well they are learning. A team of researchers based in Germany and Switzerland wanted to test whether self-regulation could be taught in a way that was easily integrated (融入) into the curriculum. In their paper published in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers detail an experiment that took place during a full school year with a follow-up three years later. Self-regulation can be defined as the ability to regulate attention, emotion and behavior to pursue individual goals, according to the authors. In this study, researchers trained teachers to deliver a training module for first graders that helped them think through processes like overcoming obstacles (障碍) to reach a goal. The module was taught over five weeks, each lesson being about 50 minutes. For example, in one story, a character named Hurdy thinks about climbing to the top of a mountain and identifies the obstacles in his path. He overcomes the obstacles and thinks about how he achieved his goal while enjoying the views at the top. There’s another similar story specifically about reading. Some first-grade classes were taught this module, called the “mental contrasting with implementation (实施) intentions” (MCII), while others received their regular curriculum without this module. Students who had been taught the MCII module showed improvement in academic skills like reading. They performed better on reading tests, had better reading ability and were better at finding careless mistakes based on a teacher’s assessments. The effect was smaller early after the module but trended upwards six months and about a year after they were taught the MCII module. These students were also more likely to be admitted into an advanced secondary school track three years later. There were some caveats to the study, one being that some of the teachers were not blinded to whether the students received the MCII training or not. This could have affected their assessments of the students’ abilities. There may have also been differences in the teachers’ abilities in teaching the module material. 12. Why are the stories mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To tell interesting stories. B. To show different teaching methads. C. To show how MCII works in real life. D. To give background information on MCII. 13. What is the sixth paragraph centred on? A. The research findings. B. The research purpose. C. The research process. D. The research participants. 14. What does the underlined word “caveats” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Conditions. B. Challenges. C. Limitations. D. Exceptions. 15. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A travel brochure. B. A scientific journal. C. A health magazine. D. A personal blog. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A great poem can be there for you.

With each day passing, everyone became more anxious, waiting for the final school bell. As soon as the bell rang, everyone would rush for their coats and go home, everyone except David. David was a small boy in ragged (破烂的) clothes. I had often wondered what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed in so unsuitable clothes for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David special. I can still remember he was always wearing a smile and ready to help. He always stayed after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. After he finished cleaning, he would just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly head for his home. Weeks passed and the excitement grew into restlessness (坐立不安) with the coming Christmas until the last day of school before the holiday break. I smiled with relief when the last of them hurried out of the door. Turning around, I saw David quietly standing by my desk. “I have something for you,” he said and took out a small box from behind his back.He handed it to me and he said worriedly, “Open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped (打开) it. I lifted the lid but to my surprise, nothing was there. I looked at David’s smiling face and looked back into the box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s empty.” “Oh no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love is something that you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.” 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Tears welled up in my eyes. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, David and I became good friends. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024学年第二学期5月高一阶段测试卷 英语 注意事项：1.考试时间为120分钟，满分150分。 2.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡相应的位置。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。 1.

The children shared their ideas, and we discussed the scientific reasons behind each suggestion. It was fascinating to see their minds at work, trying to solve the problem. Then, I lit the piece of paper on fire and dropped it into the bottle. As the flame consumed the oxygen inside, the air pressure decreased. I quickly placed the egg on top of the bottle, and to the amazement of my students, the egg was sucked inside. The room was filled with gasps and excited chatter, as the children marveled (惊叹) at the demonstration. This simple experiment sparked (引发) their curiosity and reinforced the concept of air pressure in a fun and memorable way. Looking back, I feel deeply grateful for moments like these, where the joy of learning comes alive in the classroom. It’s not just about teaching a subject, but about fueling a spark of curiosity and a love for discovery in every student. These moments are what truly make teaching a rewarding career, as they remind me of why I chose to become a teacher — to inspire and guide the next generation of explorers on their journey towards knowledge and understanding. 4. Why did the author do the experiment? A. To visually explain what air pressure is. B. To teach students how to cook with eggs. C. To entertain the students with a magic trick. D. To find out which students were the most curious. 5. How did the students respond to the author’s question? A. They were confused about the question. B. They showed no interest in the experiment. C. They actively talked and exchanged views. D. They lowered their heads and did their homework. 6. Which words can best describe the author’s experiment? A. Dangerous and boring. B. Amazing and educational. C. Interesting but useless. D. Enjoyable but worthless. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. The Magic of Eggs and Bottles B. Air Pressure and Its Applications C.

Findings were published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, According to results, the death risk was lowest among individuals who drink two cups of black tea or more per day. Tea is one of the most popular beverages around the world, and previous research has shown a link between green tea consumption and the lower death risk. To better understand any associations in populations that primarily consume black tea, researchers assessed all-cause and cause-specific death of 498,043 individuals between the ages 40 and 69 included in the U. K. Biobank. Participants completed the baseline questionnaire between 2006 and 2010 and were followed up with for an average of 11.2 years. Eighty-five percent of participants reported regularly drinking tea, of whom 89 percent reported consuming black tea. Compared with individuals who did not consume tea, these participants had a 9 to 13 percent lower death risk. The association remained even after researchers adjusted for participants’ coffee consumption, or milk or sugar added to tea. Tea temperature at the point of consumption also did not change results. “These findings suggest that tea, even at higher levels of intake, can be part of a healthy diet,” authors wrote. “Tea is rich in bioactive elements that can reduce stress and inflammation (炎症), but people shouldn’t change how many cups of tea to drink every day because of these results.” said study co-author Maki Inoue - Choi, an epidemiologist (流行病学家) at the National Cancer Institute, in a statement to TIME, “Because this study was observational in nature, randomized clinical trials are needed to prove black tea consumption causes a lower death risk.” 8. The focus of the new research was to ______ A. analyze tea consumption patterns globally. B. determine death causes among tea drinkers. C. compare health benefits of black and green tea. D explore the link between black tea and death risk. 9. How does the author mainly organize the third paragraph? A. By providing related data, B. By comparing different types of tea. C. By presenting previous research findings. D. By discussing the participants’ experiences. 10. What can we learn from Maki Inoue-Choi’s words? A. People should drink less tea every day. B. Scientists tend to prefer black tea to green tea. C. More work needs to be done to prove the study result. D. People should adjust their tea intake based on the study. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To sell more tea products. B. To report on a new study. C. To show the research methods. D. To encourage people to drink tea. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10.

A team of researchers based in Germany and Switzerland wanted to test whether self-regulation could be taught in a way that was easily integrated (融入) into the curriculum. In their paper published in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers detail an experiment that took place during a full school year with a follow-up three years later. Self-regulation can be defined as the ability to regulate attention, emotion and behavior to pursue individual goals, according to the authors. In this study, researchers trained teachers to deliver a training module for first graders that helped them think through processes like overcoming obstacles (障碍) to reach a goal. The module was taught over five weeks, each lesson being about 50 minutes. For example, in one story, a character named Hurdy thinks about climbing to the top of a mountain and identifies the obstacles in his path. He overcomes the obstacles and thinks about how he achieved his goal while enjoying the views at the top. There’s another similar story specifically about reading. Some first-grade classes were taught this module, called the “mental contrasting with implementation (实施) intentions” (MCII), while others received their regular curriculum without this module. Students who had been taught the MCII module showed improvement in academic skills like reading. They performed better on reading tests, had better reading ability and were better at finding careless mistakes based on a teacher’s assessments. The effect was smaller early after the module but trended upwards six months and about a year after they were taught the MCII module. These students were also more likely to be admitted into an advanced secondary school track three years later. There were some caveats to the study, one being that some of the teachers were not blinded to whether the students received the MCII training or not. This could have affected their assessments of the students’ abilities. There may have also been differences in the teachers’ abilities in teaching the module material. 12. Why are the stories mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To tell interesting stories. B. To show different teaching methads. C. To show how MCII works in real life. D. To give background information on MCII. 13. What is the sixth paragraph centred on? A. The research findings. B. The research purpose. C. The research process. D. The research participants. 14. What does the underlined word “caveats” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Conditions. B. Challenges. C. Limitations. D. Exceptions. 15. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A travel brochure. B. A scientific journal. C. A health magazine. D. A personal blog. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究人员针对年幼的孩子进行了一项关于冲动控制和自我调节的研究，解释了研究开展的经过、结果以及局限性。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In this study, researchers trained teachers to deliver a training module for first graders that helped them think through processes like overcoming obstacles (障碍) to reach a goal. The module was taught over five weeks, each lesson being about 50 minutes.(在这项研究中，研究人员培训教师为一年级学生提供一个培训模块，帮助他们思考克服障碍以达到目标等过程。该模块的教学时间为五周，每节课约50分钟)”以及第四段“For example, in one story, a character named Hurdy thinks about climbing to the top of a mountain and identifies the obstacles in his path. He overcomes the obstacles and thinks about how he achieved his goal while enjoying the views at the top. There’s another similar story specifically about reading.(例如，在一个故事中，一个名叫Hurdy的角色想要爬到山顶，并确定他前进道路上的障碍。他克服障碍，一边欣赏山顶的景色，一边思考自己是如何实现目标的。还有一个关于阅读的类似故事)”可知，第4段提到了这些故事是为了展示MCII在现实生活中如何发挥作用。故选C。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第六段“Students who had been taught the MCII module showed improvement in academic skills like reading. They performed better on reading tests, had better reading ability and were better at finding careless mistakes based on a teacher’s assessments. The effect was smaller early after the module but trended upwards six months and about a year after they were taught the MCII module. These students were also more likely to be admitted into an advanced secondary school track three years later.(学过MCII模块的学生在阅读等学术技能上有所提高。他们在阅读测试中表现更好，有更好的阅读能力，并且更善于根据老师的评估发现粗心的错误。这种影响在学习MCII模块后的早期较小，但在学习MCII模块后的六个月和大约一年后呈上升趋势。这些学生也更有可能在三年后进入高级中学)”可知，第六段的中心内容是研究结果。故选A。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“one being that some of the teachers were not blinded to whether the students received the MCII training or not”可知，一些老师并没有对学生是否接受过MCII培训视而不见这是研究其中一个局限性。故划线词意思是“局限性”。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“For young children, impulse (冲动) control and self-regulation at school can affect how well they are learning.

With each day passing, everyone became more anxious, waiting for the final school bell. As soon as the bell rang, everyone would rush for their coats and go home, everyone except David. David was a small boy in ragged (破烂的) clothes. I had often wondered what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed in so unsuitable clothes for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David special. I can still remember he was always wearing a smile and ready to help. He always stayed after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. After he finished cleaning, he would just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly head for his home. Weeks passed and the excitement grew into restlessness (坐立不安) with the coming Christmas until the last day of school before the holiday break. I smiled with relief when the last of them hurried out of the door. Turning around, I saw David quietly standing by my desk. “I have something for you,” he said and took out a small box from behind his back.He handed it to me and he said worriedly, “Open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped (打开) it. I lifted the lid but to my surprise, nothing was there. I looked at David’s smiling face and looked back into the box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s empty.” “Oh no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love is something that you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.” 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Tears welled up in my eyes. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, David and I became good friends. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Tears welled up in my eyes. I was deeply moved by David’s words and the profound meaning behind his empty box. His mother’s message about love being invisible yet powerful resonated within me, reminding me of the true essence of Christmas—love and giving, not material gifts. I hugged David tightly, overwhelmed with gratitude for his gift and the lesson he had taught me. “Thank you, David,” I whispered, “for reminding me of what truly matters.” From that day on, David and I became good friends. We spent countless hours together, sharing stories, playing games, and learning from each other. I helped him with his studies while he taught me the value of simplicity and kindness. His smile and positive attitude were contagious, brightening even the gloomiest of days. David’s impact on my life was immeasurable, and I was forever grateful for the friendship we shared and the lessons he imparted. His empty box of love became a symbol of our bond, a reminder to always cherish the invisible yet powerful forces in life—love, kindness, and friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，描述了学生们对圣诞节的期待，其中特别关注了David这一特殊角色。David虽然穿着破烂，但总是面带微笑且乐于助人，与其他学生形成了鲜明对比。在圣诞假期前的最后一天，当所有学生都急匆匆地离开学校时，David却留下来，并送给老师一个看似空无一物的盒子。当老师疑惑地发现盒子为空时，David解释说这盒子里装满了爱，这是他母亲生前教给他的道理。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“泪水涌上了我的眼睛。”可知，第一段可描写作者被David的话深深感动。 ②由第二段首句内容“从那天起，David和我成了好朋友。”可知，第二段可描写作者作者和David成为朋友后的改变和感悟。 2. 续写线索：感动——感谢——成为朋友——改变——感悟。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①感动：move/touch ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③珍惜：cherish/treasure 情绪类 ①感激：gratitude/appreciation ②积极的：positive/active 【点睛】[高分句型1]I hugged David tightly, overwhelmed with gratitude for his gift and the lesson he had taught me.(省略that的定语从句) [高分句型2]David’s impact on my life was immeasurable, and I was forever grateful for the friendship we shared and the lessons he imparted.(省略that的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
