B Jiang Shumei wasn’t educated as a child, learning her first Chinese character at the age of 60. Now, the 87-year-old grandmother is the proud author of six books. She learned her first character in 1996, after her husband died in a car accident, when her daughter Zhang Ailing suggested that she learn to read to take her mind off the loneliness and sorrow. Zhang says that her mother had her own way of learning. Whenever she came across characters she didn’t know at bus stops or shop signs, she found someone to ask. Once Jiang had learned enough characters, Zhang started giving her books to read. Enjoying the books, Jiang told her daughter that she wanted to write down her own stories to share. She first put pen to paper in 2012, at the age of 75. It was not easy. Sometimes,completing a single sentence could take a day. Jiang usually started writing at 3 or 4 am, and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Zhang began publishing her mother’s stories on social media platforms in 2013. When Zhang and her mother drew the attention of Zhang’s writer friends, the pair made a decision to publish them. The first book, Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty, was published later that year, and proved to be a success. Some critics even praised it as the “live history of a nation plagued by tough times”. The book earned Jiang a lot of fans and sympathy. So far, the elderly woman has published six books, totaling more than 600, 000characters in length. She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly. 24．Why did Jiang learn to read in her later years? A．To become a proud author. B．To make up for not going to school. C．To encourage her friends and families. D．To reduce the impact of her husband’s death. 25．What made Jiang decide to publish her first book? A．A strong inner desire. B．The attention from other writers. C．Her daughter’s encouragement. D．The development of social media. 26．What dose the underlined word“plagued”in paragraph 4 mean? A．Aided. B．Enlarged. C．Troubled. D．Defeated. 27．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．One is never too old to learn. B．All roads lead to Rome. C．Where there is life, there is love. D．Gold can’t be pure and man can’t be perfect. C The climate crisis may lead the human race to decrease in size, as mammals (哺乳动物) with smaller bodies appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures, a leading fossil expert said. Prof Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist (古生物学家) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans’ future. He compared the potential situation of people as similar to that of early horses, which became smaller in body size as temperatures rose around 55m years ago, a period called the Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum. Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann’s rule. “The reasons are not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area compared to their size than bigger animals and can thus better get rid of extra heat” he writes. Brusatte said that becoming smaller was “a common way that mammals deal with climate change”. He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures spike pretty quickly, which does raise the question: if temperatures do spike really quickly, might humans dwarf, might humans get smaller? And I think that’s certainly convincing.” In a recent study, researchers studying human remains over the past million years have also suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size variation, while scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller. However, not all experts agree that rising temperature causes mammals to decease. Prof Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak, while the strong relationship between temperature and mammal body size may often result from the availability of food and resources. Lister doubts whether humans will shrink as the climate heats. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.” 28．According to the passage, the early horses got smaller in body size . A．to keep cool B．to save food C．to keep warm D．to avoid being killed 29．What does the underlined word “spike” in the 5th paragraph mean? A．Rise B．Drop C．Balance D．Change 30．What is Brusatte most likely to agree with? A．Every species of mammal would get smaller as the temperature goes up. B．Animals in warmer areas are definitely smaller than those in colder areas. C．Smaller animals have a higher surface area and so they can cool down quickly. D．The change of Mammals’ body size is closely related to their food and other resources. 31．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Climate Change Causes Natural Disasters. B．Climate Change Leads to Heated Discussions. C．Climate Change Causes Changes in Body Size. D．Climate Change Leads to Changed Lifestyle. D Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an important role in the Asian Games Hangzhou 2022 and Asian Para Games. These terms might sound familiar, but how smart are they when applied to the 56 Asian Games venues (场地)? Their smartness can be found in running the venues with less human labor forces. At the Huanglong Sports Center, a system called Smart Stadium Brain is built. A 25 square meter high definition screen lays in the venue’s information center, which guarantees a friendly environment for the athletes and audiences. A small screen on each seat is designed to be at the audience’s service. By finger touching, the audience can control it conveniently to watch and keep contact with the event. What’s more, supported by the 5G technology. AI also means further protection on environment. At the Fuyang sports Center, although it has been raining for days, the roof of the venue still remains dry. And the secret lies in its attractive sky garden. The garden, is not only eye-catching but also useful. It allows the greening rate of the entire stadium to reach as high as 45%, being energy-saving. Under the cobblestones (鹅卵石), a recovery system is filtering (过滤) and collecting rainwater for the venue’s water system, and irrigation water. 32．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “guarantee” in Para2? A．Adapt to. B．Take advantage of. C．Get used to. D．Make sure of. 33．What can we learn from Para 2? A．Small screen must be supported by the 5 G technology. B．The audience can control small screens on their seats easily. C．The stadium is environmentally friendly and advanced but costly. D．Their smartness of AI will replace workers 34．How does the roof of the venue keep dry while it’s raining? A．By saving energy. B．By recycling the rainwater. C．By collecting rainwater system of the sky garden. D．By improving the greening rate. 35．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．More Connections with Smart Devices. B．A Sports Center with Smart Stadium Brain. C．Asian Games with Artificial Intelligence. D．Smart Asian Games with High-tech Venues. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. 36 In a bus you may look at a stranger but not far too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable. The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. 37 Eyes do speak, right? Looking too long at someone may seem to be side and aggressive 38 If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are obvious. He wishes to attract her attention, and let her know that he is admiring her. However, when two persons are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener’s eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. 39 If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if trying to control you, you will feel awkward. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim. He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. 40 Actually, eye contact should be made based on specific relationship and situation. A．On the contrary, it will give him away. B．Do you have such a kind of experience? C．That’s what normal eye contact is all about. D．Actually, continuous eye contact is limited to lovers only. E．After all, everybody likes to be stared at for quite a long time. F．But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex. G．If nothing goes wrong, you will feel annoyed at being stared at that way. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节, 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分, 共15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Some people say he is a hero.

Parents would also be invited to watch. One afternoon, the schoolmaster called me into his office. He said with a smile, “Nancie, could you write a poem for the festival and read it during the coming event?” “Sure!” Excitedly, I had loved poetry since my fifth grade. I was fascinated by poems for it is an amazing thing to convey feelings through them. When my first poem was published, I was known to my friends and teachers as the class poet. I left the schoolmaster’s office that afternoon, feeling quite happy. Then for weeks, I worked or my poem, carefully designing the content, structure and sound. I practiced reciting it aloud every day. When the evening for the event finally came, I was ready. Well, I was ready until I looked around and realized how many people there were in the school hall. How could I present my poem in front of more than 400 people? I was just a seventh-grader! No one would take my work seriously What was worse, I had never spoken in front of a huge crowd before. I sat in my chair, hoping I could disappear. Maybe they would forget I was supposed to read. “Hey, Nancie, I saw your name in the program. Good luck!” my little brother's voice rose as he took his seat a few rows down with his class. I nodded, struggling to keep calm. I knew my parents were somewhere in the hall. Before long, the lights faded, the crowd quieted, and the schoolmaster took the stage to introduce the list of the shows. Mine was at the end of the list. So I had to sit through an hour of absolute anxiety. It wasn’t until the students from the fourth grade were singing that my teacher brought me downstairs next to the stage. My mind was blank. Then suddenly, I was on stage with the bright white lights blinding my view of the audience. When I walked to the microphone in the center of the stage, I somehow tripped over something. And I stupidly fell down. All of the kids burst into laughter. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was about to run away when my teacher came up to me.________________________________________ __ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ( 1 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 2023-2024学年高一英语月考卷参考答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 1—5 ABBBB 6—10 BCACC 11—15 CBABC 16—20 CBBCA 第二部分阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 21—25 CBDDB 26—30 CACAC 31—35 CDBCD 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36—40 BGFCA 第三部分 语言运用（共二节, 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分, 共15分） 41-45 CADDC 46-50 AADBC 51-55 DCBCA 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56．application 57．about 58．Dating 59．ambitious 60．as 61．inventor 62．remains 63．where 64．founded 65．Dropping 第三节 单词拼写(共10分，每小题1分） 66. loss 67. harmony 68. convenient 69. enjoyable 70. dating 71. charged 72. graduated 73. enabled 74. absorbed 75. annoyed 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） Dear Steven, I have a piece of good news to tell you that there will be a skipping rope competition to be held on the playground of our school next Friday.

Then he motivated the audience to give me encouragement. Feeling less nervous, I took the microphone and cleared my voice before reading the title. Surprisingly, my voice sounded clear and loud. The hall silenced. I continued reading, with words coming out in the right order and lines flowing together appropriately.When I finished my reading, the hall was silent at first. I swallowed hard. Maybe no one loved my poem. Then out of the silence there was clapping and cheering. I dared to look for my parents in the sea of faces, and found my mother wiping away tears and my father smiling. With a light-headed feeling and a happy smile, I bowed slightly and walked off the stage. I greeted each person I met when going back to my seat, with relief and gratefulness spreading warmly through my body. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
