It was extremely beautiful in Majorca, Spain. The way the sun danced across the water and how the blue horizon was dotted with storybook sailboats were such beautiful scenes. I almost couldn’t believe my eyes. My husband and I always dreamed about taking our kids on a trip around the world. It was something we always wanted to do “one day”. It was one of the things we talked at length about, when we imagined our life with the children we hoped we would have. Fourteen years later, we had three boys who were growing up faster by the day. It was time to make good on those plans. We spent dozens of hours discussing, researching and planning. We had to learn how to “road school” our kids and arrange time off from work. We renewed our passports, and then packed our bags. We showed our kids the world. It was about experiencing the dozens of flights and trains and taxis together. We showed them how wonderful, how diverse, and how amazing the world is. We wanted them to learn all that we had learned ourselves, through our own travels as young adults. But there was something more than that: What we really wanted is to slow down time. We wanted the days to last a bit longer, and the weeks to take their time. The years with our children are going too fast. We wanted to put the brakes on (阻止) our busy lives for a year, and just be with our kids. We wanted a break from the daily morning routine of making lunches, eating breakfast and rushing out of the door in time for school. We needed a family time-out. It was a wonderful two-month trip in Europe, full of incredible moments. And when we look back at our lives, I know we’ll be glad we did it. I know we’ll be happy that this is a chapter of the story of our family. 4. What was the author’s attitude toward the trip when planning it? A. Worried. B. Calm. C. Stressed. D. Eager. 5. What does the underlined part “make good on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Change. B. Realize. C. Improve. D. Cancel. 6. What was the author’s main purpose of taking this trip? A. To teach her children to value life. B. To allow her children to see the world. C. To enjoy a family breakaway from their life routine. D. To enable her children to learn something out of class. 7. How did the author feel about their two-month stay in Europe? A. Tired. B. Satisfied. C. Inspired. D. Disappointed. C College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school? In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work. Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects. Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk. When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding. It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them. 8. What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT? A. It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B. It’s hard to grade a paper written by it. C. It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D. It questions the necessity of teaching writing. 9. What does the author think of learning to write? A. It helps with logical thinking. B. It is a basic skill for everyone. C. It focuses on correct expression. D. It is closely related to social skills. 10. What makes writing effective according to the text? A. Expressing oneself. B. Targeting intended readers. C. Conveying imaginative ideas. D. Creating attractive characters. 11. What may be a suitable title for the text? A. What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students B. ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing C. Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy D. What Is the Future for AI Writing 第二节 七选五（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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Four Habits to Help You Succeed Nobody would like to experience failure.

I decided to prepare my turkey meat for dinner, and get a few things done. After the regular housework was done, I pulled the air conditioning units out of the windows and put them up for the winter. Next, I walked into the storage closet and pulled out the Christmas decorations and the artificial(人造的) tree. I unpacked my new picture and placed it lovingly on my old record player. Then I set up my Christmas statues of Santa and Dickens’ books on the shelf along with the Christmas angel.Next I unpacked, fitted and put up the tree. After that I pulled out the lights, metal wires and decorations. I put each one on the tree gently and with great care while my son Marvin played Christmas music and decorated his own room. In no time at all, everything was done. I looked at the tree and then outside again. This time, however, it didn’t seem so cold, gray, and gloomy. Instead, it felt warm and Christmas seemed to be in the air. Even the snowflakes floating in the wind felt more like a gift from Heaven. I heard “Away in a Manger" coming from my son’s CD player and hummed along (跟着哼唱). This life certainly can seem full of pains at times. It is up to us, though, to make each one a blessing(祝福) in our life. Since there are benefits without the internet, we can turn it off for a while now and then. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在下面作答。 I proposed to discuss how it felt to be without the internet at dinner. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We made it a rule to have Sunday meal without the internet and we did it this weekend ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 CACBC 6-10 BABBC 11-15 BBAAC 16-20 CACAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 莆田第十五中学2023--2024学年下学期高一英语期中考试卷 （满分：150 分；考试时间：120 分钟） 注意事项： 1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 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。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.What will the woman have?

It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school? In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work. Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects. Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk. When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding. It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them. 8. What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT? A. It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B. It’s hard to grade a paper written by it. C. It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D. It questions the necessity of teaching writing. 9. What does the author think of learning to write? A. It helps with logical thinking. B. It is a basic skill for everyone. C. It focuses on correct expression. D. It is closely related to social skills. 10. What makes writing effective according to the text? A. Expressing oneself. B. Targeting intended readers. C. Conveying imaginative ideas. D. Creating attractive characters. 11. What may be a suitable title for the text? A. What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students B. ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing C. Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy D. What Is the Future for AI Writing 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。虽然人工智能可以完成高水平的写作任务，但有些东西是它无法做到的，例如写作可以把一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线，写作训练人们的想象力，针对不同的目标读者写作方式不同。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school?(如果人工智能在大多数写作任务中都能做得相当好，那为什么要花那么多时间在学校学习写作呢？)”可知，关于ChatGPT，老师关注是它质疑教学写作的必要性。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.(首先，它是关于学习将一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线——这是一项对每个人都有用的技能，而不仅仅是那些喜欢写作或需要为工作做很多事情的人)”可知，作者认为学习写作有助于逻辑思维。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose.(写作从来不是简单的自我表达。它是为特定目的而对特定受众的表达)”可知，针对目标读者使写作有效。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段“College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school?(大学和高中教师对ChatGPT表达了担忧，这是一个人工智能程序，可以让写作技能有限的人创作高质量的文本。这引发了我们如何以及为什么要教写作的问题。如果人工智能在大多数写作任务中都能做得相当好，那为什么要花那么多时间在学校学习写作呢？)”可知，虽然人工智能可以完成高水平的写作任务，但有些东西是它无法做到的，例如写作可以把一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线，写作训练人们的想象力，针对不同的目标读者写作方式不同。因此A选项“人工智能不能教给写作学生的东西”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节 七选五（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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Four Habits to Help You Succeed Nobody would like to experience failure.

(没有人愿意经历失败。我们都想成功。对于那些尝试过但失败过的人来说，成功似乎很难理解。)”提出我们都想成功，但是成功不是容易的事情，选项F“我列出了四个习惯来帮助你设定目标并实现它们。”和上文存在因果关系，因为要想成功不容易，所以作者列出四个习惯助你成功，引出下文介绍的四个习惯。故选F项。 【13题详解】 本段小标题和上文“Know your values. Finding your values is in line with creating motivation. (了解你的价值观。找到你的价值观与创造动机是一致的。)”说明了解自己的价值观的重要性，选项C“坐下来，看看你最看重什么。”承接上文，介绍了解自己价值观的具体做法，引出下文“Pick a handful of things and write them down.

By its very definition, the hope to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people are likely to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and go on. (当你冒险时，失败是无法避免的。根据它的定义，成功的希望意味着你冒着失败的风险。许多人可能会过早放弃。别掉进这个陷阱！使用失败。把它当作一件好事，然后继续。)”可知，要想成功，失败往往是不可避免的，因此不要因为失败而放弃。选项B“不要因为失败而放弃。”可以作为本段小标题。选项中failure和下文中Failure词汇重叠，语义一致。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节， 满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Derek Paravicini is lucky to be alive.

Normally 34. to grow 35. controled##controlled 36. the 37. sticking 38. founder 39. for 40. larger 41. are 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在国际空间站上种植植物的挑战性以及宇航员首次在太空中吃到了自种的沙拉这一事实。 【32题详解】 考查同位语从句。句意：你知道这样一个事实吗？2015年8月10日，国际空间站上的宇航员首次吃了太空种植的沙拉。分析句子结构，空后为同位语从句，解释说明fact的具体内容，从句成分齐全，应使用that引导，且不能省略。故填that。 【33题详解】 考查副词。句意：通常情况下，在地球上种植可食用且营养丰富的植物已经够困难了，想象一下在微重力和高度控制的土壤条件、湿度、光照以及各种气体条件下种植这些绿色植物会有多大的挑战性。分析句子结构，此处应用副词修饰整个句子，normally意为“通常，正常地”，位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Normally。 【34题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：同上。分析句子结构，此处为“It is + adj. + to do sth”句型，意为“做某事是……的”，应使用不定式做真正主语。故填to grow。 【35题详解】 考查过去分词。句意：同上。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中做定语，使用非谓语动词，soil conditions与control之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，因此应使用过去分词表被动。故填controlled。 【36题详解】 考查定冠词。句意：在太空中，重力的影响微乎其微，事物会发生变化，而且变化相当大。分析句子结构，因空白处后面名词被介词短语修饰，特指重力的影响，应使用定冠词the。故填the。 【37题详解】 考查现在分词。句意：你能想象一株植物漂浮在宇宙飞船上，根部朝各个方向伸出吗？此处为with复合结构，空白处在句子中做宾补，因与其逻辑主语roots之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，应使用现在分词作宾补。故填sticking。 【38题详解】 考查名词。句意：为了实现这一目标，Rick Mastracchio，一个名为“Veggie”的特殊容器的创始人，和他的伙伴几年来付出了巨大的努力。根据空前的the和空后的of可知，此处应填入名词形式，founder意为“创始人”。故填founder。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：同上。分析句子结构，根据下文“for a few years”可知，此处表示“一段时间”，应使用介词for。故填for。 【40题详解】 考查比较级。句意：在太空中种植植物只是更复杂、需要更大努力的一部分。根据空前的and以及more complex可知，此处是要把太空种植和地球上的种植进行对比，应使用比较级，与larger并列，表示“更大的”。故填larger。 【41题详解】 考查主谓一致。句意：宇航员农民必须确保在这样的人工条件下生长的植物是安全可食用的，没有副作用，吃起来至少有点愉快。分析句子结构，plants为复数主语，且本句描述的是一般性事实，谓语动词应使用一般现在时的复数形式are。故填are。 第三节 完成句子（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 42. 新旧更替的时代已经到来，在走向未来的过程中，我们不可能将过去的一切都保存下来。 _________ the old must _________ the new, and it is not possible to preserve everything from our past as we move towards the future. 【答案】 ①. There comes a time when ②. give way to 【解析】 【详解】考查固定句型、定语从句和固定短语。根据句意，表示“……的时代已经到来”应为there comes a time，there位于句首，所以首字母需大写，表示“新旧更替的”应为“旧的给新的让位”应译为the old must give way to the new作定语修饰名词time，所以此处应为定语从句，从句中不缺主语和宾语，所以此处使用关系副词引导，先行词指的是时间，所以使用when引导。故填①There comes a time when②give way to。 43. 只有学会和大自然和谐共处，我们才不会成为野生生物和地球的威胁。 _________ we learn to _________ wildlife and to our planet. 【答案】 ①.

The air was cold. The temperature was below freezing. It was snowing heavily. And the internet was out. Now I found that having the internet out could be a blessing for me. I decided to prepare my turkey meat for dinner, and get a few things done. After the regular housework was done, I pulled the air conditioning units out of the windows and put them up for the winter. Next, I walked into the storage closet and pulled out the Christmas decorations and the artificial(人造的) tree. I unpacked my new picture and placed it lovingly on my old record player. Then I set up my Christmas statues of Santa and Dickens’ books on the shelf along with the Christmas angel.Next I unpacked, fitted and put up the tree. After that I pulled out the lights, metal wires and decorations. I put each one on the tree gently and with great care while my son Marvin played Christmas music and decorated his own room. In no time at all, everything was done. I looked at the tree and then outside again. This time, however, it didn’t seem so cold, gray, and gloomy. Instead, it felt warm and Christmas seemed to be in the air. Even the snowflakes floating in the wind felt more like a gift from Heaven. I heard “Away in a Manger" coming from my son’s CD player and hummed along (跟着哼唱). This life certainly can seem full of pains at times. It is up to us, though, to make each one a blessing(祝福) in our life. Since there are benefits without the internet, we can turn it off for a while now and then. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在下面作答。 I proposed to discuss how it felt to be without the internet at dinner. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We made it a rule to have Sunday meal without the internet and we did it this weekend. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 I proposed to discuss how it felt to be without the internet at dinner. As we sat around the table, enjoying the delicious turkey meat I had prepared, I asked my family about their thoughts on our internet-free adventure. My son Marvin, who had been decorating his room and playing Christmas music earlier, shared that he found it quite refreshing to unplug for a while. He said it gave him a chance to truly engage with his surroundings, rather than being constantly distracted by notifications and online content. My wife agreed, adding that she felt more present and engaged with the family, without the constant urge to check her phone. We made it a rule to have Sunday meal without the internet and we did it this weekend. It was a wonderful change from our usual routine. Instead of scrolling through social media or watching videos during dinner, we talked, laughed, and shared stories about our week. The conversation flowed freely, and we found ourselves enjoying each other’s company more than usual. It was a reminder that sometimes, disconnecting from the virtual world can bring us closer to the people we care about most. As we finished our meal, I realized that this simple change not only brought us together as a family but also made us appreciate the value of face-to-face communication. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者提议大家体验一下不上网的感觉，结果家人的反馈都很好，于是作者把这一做法变成惯例，家人变得更加紧密和团结。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我提议在晚餐时讨论一下没有互联网的感觉”可知，第一段可描写家人分享没有互联网的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“我们把星期天吃饭不上网作为惯例，这个周末我们也这么做了”可知，第二段可描写作为惯例之后家庭生活的变化。 2.续写线索：讨论感受——感受良好——妻子赞同——作为惯例——家人团结——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①接触：engage with/be exposed to ②询问：ask/inquire ③同意：agree/approve 情绪类 ①感激：appreciate/be grateful for ②极好的：wonderful/fantastic 【点睛】[高分句型1] As we sat around the table, enjoying the delicious turkey meat I had prepared, I asked my family about their thoughts on our internet-free adventure.
