Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up. Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard. Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business." Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success. 4. Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ______. A. the strength of family unity B. the difficulty of growing up C. the advantage of chopsticks D. the best way of giving a lesson 5. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the Helene An family ______. A. started a business in 1975 B. left Vietnam without much money C. bought a restaurant in San Francisco D. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles 6. What can we infer about the five daughters? A. They did not finish their college education. B. They could not bear to work in the family business. C. They were influenced by what Helene taught them. D. They were troubled by disagreement among family members. 7. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. How to Run a Corporation B. Strength Comes from Peace C. How to Achieve a Big Dream D. Family Unity Builds Success C I was invited to give a speech at an educators, conference. I happened to sit next to Clay Parker, the CEO of a technology company that makes micro electronics devices. For the last few years, I’d been reading about the rapidly changing world of work and was increasingly concerned that students are not prepared for today’s workplace. Buried in book knowledge, university students talk like a book and always pass exams with flying colours. However, when facing HR staff instead of their teachers, what they have learned seems useless. So I asked Parker what qualities he most wanted in a potential new employee. I expected a list of technical skills - especially since Parker is an engineer himself- but I was way off the mark. “First, I look for someone who asks good questions,” Parker responded. “Our business is changing, and so are the skills of our engineers. We can teach them the technical stuff. But for employees willing to solve problems or to learn new things, they have to know what questions to ask. And we can’t teach them how to ask good questions - how to think. The ability to ask the right questions reflects good thinking ability, the most important quality.” Indeed the ability to ask good questions has been a repeated theme in almost all of my conversations about core competences and skills for success in today’s workplace. It turns out that asking good questions goes hand in hand with problem solving ability in the minds of most employers. The students have always been brought up to live up to a certain standard and so much emphasis has been put on fixed rules and giving the expected answer of their teachers instead of raising a question. We teachers are always blaming the students for giving wrong answers. Perhaps we should ask ourselves whether we are always asking the right questions. 8. Why did the author ask Parker the question? A. To bring the CEO’s attention to education. B. To collect information about his company. C. To ask for his opinion about the conference. D. To know his requirements for new employees. 9. What does underlined "off the mark" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Mistaken. B. Not qualified. C. Confused. D. Not professional. 10. What does Parker value his employees for? A. Teamwork. B. Thinking ability. C. Technical skills. D. Professional knowledge. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How to Hunt for a Job B. Asking Questions Matters C. An Encounter with a CEO D. Problem-solving Makes a Difference D Your colleague’s sharp comment keeps replaying in your mind. Two of your students are trapped in a “he said/she said” battle. When you reflect on your emotional reactions, you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings, which can make you feel even worse. If so, the answer may lie in a skill called “self-distancing”，the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively. According to a research, when people adopt self-distancing while discussing a difficult event, they make better sense of their reactions, experience less emotional suffering, and display fewer signs of stress. But what might self-distancing look like in action? Consider a typical “he said/she said” student conflict where they are each focusing on their own feelings. One is thinking，“I can’t believe he did that to me.” And another insists, “She really hurt my feelings.” However, if you ask them to take the self-distancing, they might step outside of themselves and ask broader questions: “Why was he so hurt in this situation?” or “How did her anger affect him?” Although this approach may sound too simple to be effective studies indicate that a change in point of view can have a powerful effect on the way people think, feel, and behave. Here are several different techniques you can try. First，consider how a thoughtful friend might respond after quietly observing their situation. Besides avoid using the pronoun “I”. Focus on using third-person pronouns, he, she, they, and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening. Finally, ask yourself, “How would I feel about this one week from now or ten years from now?” This form of mental time travel may be effective because our attention is directed away from our immediate, concrete circumstances. 12. What is self-distancing? A Getting stuck in negative emotions. B. A stressful situation. C. A study on relieving emotional stress. D. Reflecting on yourself objectively. 13. Paragraph 2 is developed by____. A. example B. definition C. classification D. process 14. Which of the following statement uses the techniques of self-distancing? A. I’m angry with him. B. How I wish I could go back to the past! C. How did these two people get to this point? D. He grabbed my notes, and then, and then... 15. What is the best title for the passage? A. Why Self-distancing Matters B. The Application of Self-distancing C. Breaking the Cycle of Negative Reflection D. Ways to Reflect on Emotional Reactions 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。 More than 40 million Americans move each year,but not always by choice.Whether you’re moving because of work or schooling or for better chances,adjusting to (适应) the life in a new place can be difficult.It is especially true when you don’t love your new city very much. ____16____ Treat it as an adventure. ____17____ So stay positive and get out there and explore!

In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a sheet of paper, we made a list of the three people we were looking for in the group, and when we had gathered all the applications, Mrs. Brtlett informed us she would consider the names we had picked out and notify us tomorrow. There was no question in my mind that I would get the group of my own choosing. There were only a handful of sociable decent people in the class, and Missy was one of them. I knew we had chosen each other. Then the next day, I was anxious to wait for the class. When the bell rang, Missy and I ceased to talk and Mrs. Bartlett called our attention. She began calling out names. When she reached the group three, Missy’s name was mentioned. So, I’m in group three, I thought. The second, third and fourth group members have been called out. My name was not included. There had to be some mistake! Then I heard it. “Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, and Carina.” I could feel the tears well up in my eyes.How can I stand being part of this group-one boy who rarely spoke English, one girl who was always covered by skirts that went down to her ankles, and the other girl who wore weird (怪异的) clothes? How badly I wanted to be with my friends! I tried not to cry when I approached Mrs. Bartlett. She glanced at me and understood why I had come. I was determined to convince her I should be in the “good” group. “Why?” I asked. She put her hand gently on my shoulder. “I understand what you’re trying to do, Carina, but your group need you. You have to help them get a pass on this task. You’re the only one who can help them.” I was surprised that she had seen something in me I hadn’t seen. “Are you going to help them?” she asked. I stood more upright. “Yeah,” I answered. I didn’t believe it was true, but it was. I had committed. 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。 Paragraph 1: I bravely walked to where the rest of my group were seated. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: In the end, Mrs. Bartlett gave us an “A” on that assignment. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 石室阳安学校2023-2024学年度下学期高二5月月考 英语试卷 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，你将有两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，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.

They were troubled by disagreement among family members. 7. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. How to Run a Corporation B. Strength Comes from Peace C. How to Achieve a Big Dream D. Family Unity Builds Success 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。Helene和丈夫离开越南时，他们并不富有。Helene给她的女儿讲述了一个关于团结的故事。几双筷子被绑在一起将会很难被折断，家庭亦是如此。文章通过讲述一个家族企业的发展历程来强调家庭团结的重要性。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. This lesson about family unity...”可知，Helene把筷子绑在一起并试着折断它们，是为了显示团结的力量。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money.”可知，当离开越南时，Helene夫妇并没有太多的钱。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."可知，尽管有时家庭成员之间意见不一致，但他们一起努力使生意成功。女儿伊丽莎白解释说:“我们的母亲教导我们。要成功，我们必须团结;要团结，我们必须和平相处。没有家庭的力量，就没有生意的成功。所以通过关键词“disagreed with，make the business successful”以及伊丽莎白所说的话可以判断出，这五个女儿受到妈妈教诲的影响，团结一心，把生意越做越大。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结).”和第三段“to succeed we must have unity”与第四段“and they worked together. Now they are a big success.”可知，文章主要讲的是家庭团结对取得成功的重要性。所以短文最佳标题为“家庭团结成就成功”。故选D项。 C I was invited to give a speech at an educators, conference. I happened to sit next to Clay Parker, the CEO of a technology company that makes micro electronics devices. For the last few years, I’d been reading about the rapidly changing world of work and was increasingly concerned that students are not prepared for today’s workplace. Buried in book knowledge, university students talk like a book and always pass exams with flying colours. However, when facing HR staff instead of their teachers, what they have learned seems useless. So I asked Parker what qualities he most wanted in a potential new employee. I expected a list of technical skills - especially since Parker is an engineer himself- but I was way off the mark. “First, I look for someone who asks good questions,” Parker responded. “Our business is changing, and so are the skills of our engineers. We can teach them the technical stuff. But for employees willing to solve problems or to learn new things, they have to know what questions to ask. And we can’t teach them how to ask good questions - how to think. The ability to ask the right questions reflects good thinking ability, the most important quality.” Indeed, the ability to ask good questions has been a repeated theme in almost all of my conversations about core competences and skills for success in today’s workplace. It turns out that asking good questions goes hand in hand with problem solving ability in the minds of most employers. The students have always been brought up to live up to a certain standard and so much emphasis has been put on fixed rules and giving the expected answer of their teachers instead of raising a question. We teachers are always blaming the students for giving wrong answers. Perhaps we should ask ourselves whether we are always asking the right questions. 8. Why did the author ask Parker the question? A. To bring the CEO’s attention to education. B. To collect information about his company. C. To ask for his opinion about the conference. D. To know his requirements for new employees. 9. What does underlined "off the mark" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Mistaken. B. Not qualified. C. Confused. D. Not professional. 10. What does Parker value his employees for? A. Teamwork. B. Thinking ability. C. Technical skills. D. Professional knowledge. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How to Hunt for a Job B. Asking Questions Matters C. An Encounter with a CEO D. Problem-solving Makes a Difference 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。本文主要讲述了在职场中最重要的能力是具有提出问题的能力，这反映了其良好的思考能力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“So I asked Parker what qualities he most wanted in a potential new employee. (所以我问帕克，他最希望新员工具备什么样的品质。)”可知，作者的问题是想了解他对新员工的要求。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“I expected a list of technical skills - especially since Parker is an engineer himself- but I was way off the mark. (我期望得到一份技术技能的清单——尤其是帕克本人就是一名工程师——但我__________。)”以及第三段中““First, I look for someone who asks good questions,” Parker responded. (帕克回答说：“首先，我寻找那些能提出好问题的人。”)”由帕克的回答首先是想要那些能提出好问题的人，而不是对什么技术技能的要求，可知作者想错了，因此猜测划线词 off the mark意为“错误的”。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“ The ability to ask the right questions reflects good thinking ability, the most important quality. (提出正确问题的能力反映了良好的思考能力，这是最重要的品质。)”可知，帕克看重员工的思考能力。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“ The ability to ask the right questions reflects good thinking ability, the most important quality. (提出正确问题的能力反映了良好的思考能力，这是最重要的品质。)”和第四段中“Indeed, the ability to ask good questions has been a repeated theme in almost all of my conversations about core competences and skills for success in today’s workplace. (事实上，在我的几乎所有关于在当今职场中取得成功的核心能力和技能的谈话中，提出好问题的能力一直是一个反复出现的主题。)”可知，本文主要讲述了在职场中最重要的能力是具有提出问题的能力，这反映了其良好的思考能力，因此本文的最佳标题选项B“提出问题最重要”符合题意。故选B项。 D Your colleague’s sharp comment keeps replaying in your mind. Two of your students are trapped in a “he said/she said” battle. When you reflect on your emotional reactions, you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings, which can make you feel even worse. If so, the answer may lie in a skill called “self-distancing”，the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively. According to a research, when people adopt self-distancing while discussing a difficult event, they make better sense of their reactions, experience less emotional suffering, and display fewer signs of stress. But what might self-distancing look like in action? Consider a typical “he said/she said” student conflict where they are each focusing on their own feelings. One is thinking，“I can’t believe he did that to me.” And another insists, “She really hurt my feelings.” However, if you ask them to take the self-distancing, they might step outside of themselves and ask broader questions: “Why was he so hurt in this situation?” or “How did her anger affect him?” Although this approach may sound too simple to be effective, studies indicate that a change in point of view can have a powerful effect on the way people think, feel, and behave. Here are several different techniques you can try. First，consider how a thoughtful friend might respond after quietly observing their situation. Besides, avoid using the pronoun “I”. Focus on using third-person pronouns, he, she, they, and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening. Finally, ask yourself, “How would I feel about this one week from now or ten years from now?” This form of mental time travel may be effective because our attention is directed away from our immediate, concrete circumstances. 12. What is self-distancing? A. Getting stuck in negative emotions. B. A stressful situation. C. A study on relieving emotional stress. D. Reflecting on yourself objectively. 13. Paragraph 2 is developed by____. A. example B. definition C. classification D. process 14. Which of the following statement uses the techniques of self-distancing? A. I’m angry with him. B. How I wish I could go back to the past! C. How did these two people get to this point? D. He grabbed my notes, and then, and then... 15. What is the best title for the passage? A. Why Self-distancing Matters B. The Application of Self-distancing C. Breaking the Cycle of Negative Reflection D. Ways to Reflect on Emotional Reactions 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是一种有助于打破消极循环的技巧——自我疏远。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively”可知，自我疏远指的是客观地反思自己，故D项正确。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Consider a typical “he said/she said” student conflict where they are each focusing on their own feelings.”及“However, if you ask them to take the self-distancing, they might step outside of themselves and ask broader questions: “Why was he so hurt in this situation?” or “How did her anger affect him?””可知，本段以学生冲突为例说明了自我疏远在实际行动中的应用，因此本段是通过举例的手法展开的，故A项正确。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Besides, avoid using the pronoun “I”. Focus on using third-person pronouns, he, she, they,”可知，避免使用代词“我”，专注于使用第三人称代词他、她或他们，故C项（这两个人是怎么走到这一步的？）正确。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。结合本文内容，尤其是根据第一段中的“When you reflect on your emotional reactions, you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings, which can make you feel even worse. If so, the answer may lie in a skill called “self-distancing””可知，当你反思自己的情绪反应时，你有时会陷入消极情绪的循环，如果是这样，答案可能是一种叫自我疏远的技巧，由此可知本文介绍的是打破消极循环的技巧——自我疏远，故C项正确。 【点睛】说明文的主旨大意题的难度较大，抓住文章第一段是关键，例如本篇第4题，根据第一段中的“When you reflect on your emotional reactions, you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings, which can make you feel even worse. If so, the answer may lie in a skill called “self-distancing””可知，当你反思自己的情绪反应时，你有时会陷入消极情绪的循环，如果是这样，答案可能是一种叫自我疏远的技巧，由此可知本文介绍的是打破消极循环的技巧——自我疏远，而不是自我疏远的应用或自我疏远的重要性。 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。 More than 40 million Americans move each year,but not always by choice.Whether you’re moving because of work or schooling or for better chances,adjusting to (适应) the life in a new place can be difficult.It is especially true when you don’t love your new city very much. ____16____ Treat it as an adventure. ____17____ So stay positive and get out there and explore!

In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a sheet of paper, we made a list of the three people we were looking for in the group, and when we had gathered all the applications, Mrs. Brtlett informed us she would consider the names we had picked out and notify us tomorrow. There was no question in my mind that I would get the group of my own choosing. There were only a handful of sociable decent people in the class, and Missy was one of them. I knew we had chosen each other. Then the next day, I was anxious to wait for the class. When the bell rang, Missy and I ceased to talk and Mrs. Bartlett called our attention. She began calling out names. When she reached the group three, Missy’s name was mentioned. So, I’m in group three, I thought. The second, third and fourth group members have been called out. My name was not included. There had to be some mistake! Then I heard it. “Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, and Carina.” I could feel the tears well up in my eyes.How can I stand being part of this group-one boy who rarely spoke English, one girl who was always covered by skirts that went down to her ankles, and the other girl who wore weird (怪异的) clothes? How badly I wanted to be with my friends! I tried not to cry when I approached Mrs. Bartlett. She glanced at me and understood why I had come. I was determined to convince her I should be in the “good” group. “Why?” I asked. She put her hand gently on my shoulder. “I understand what you’re trying to do, Carina, but your group need you. You have to help them get a pass on this task. You’re the only one who can help them.” I was surprised that she had seen something in me I hadn’t seen. “Are you going to help them?” she asked. I stood more upright. “Yeah,” I answered. I didn’t believe it was true, but it was. I had committed. 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。 Paragraph 1: I bravely walked to where the rest of my group were seated. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: In the end, Mrs. Bartlett gave us an “A” on that assignment. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I bravely walked to where the rest of my group were seated. According to what they were good at, I assigned them with different columns of the newspaper. Halfway through it, I felt myself enjoying the company of these three people. Gradually, I learned that Mauro was struggling with the English language. Juliette wore long skirts every day because of her religion and Rachel had a burning desire to be a fashion designer. Finally, with our cooperation, our assignment was successfully finished. In the end, Mrs. Bartlett gave us an “A” on that assignment. She announced that the newspaper designed by our group was the best. Our joy was beyond description. Many years later, I didn’t recall the content of the newspaper, but I did feel fortunate to be given the opportunity to see in myself a potential that inspired my actions. It is Mrs. Bartlett’s insight, vision and thoughtfulness that bring out the potential in four of her students. She is the one who truly deserves the grade A. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了世界历史课上，老师要求分组创建报纸。作者自信能与朋友Missy同组，却意外被分配到一个看似不合群的小组。通过老师劝说，作者意识到自己能帮助这个小组完成任务，最终决定接受挑战。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我勇敢地走到其他人坐的地方。”可知，第一段可描写作者与组内成员一起完成任务。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，巴特利特太太在那项任务上给了我们一个“A”。”可知，第二段可描写作者感觉高兴，并意识到是巴特利特太太激发了自己和组员的潜力。 2.续写线索：开始做任务——享受组员的陪伴——完成任务——获得A——感觉快乐——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①完成：finish/complete ②宣布：announce/declare ③激发：inspire/motivate 情绪类 ①享受：enjoy/appreciate ②喜悦：joy/happiness 【点睛】【高分句型1】According to what they were good at, I assigned them with different columns of the newspaper.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】She is the one who truly deserves the grade A.（运用了who引导的限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
