Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10-minute walk from the central city station and it’s close to all of the city’s main attractions.

B Two “stolen” notebooks, Notebooks B and C, written by Charles Darwin have been mysteriously returned to Cambridge University on March 9th, 22 years after they were last seen, but who returned them is a real whodunit. They were left anonymously(匿名地) in a bright pink gift bag containing the original blue box the notebooks were kept in and a plain brown envelope, on which was printed a short message: “Librarian, Happy Easter X.” With an action plan to use advanced information technology to preserve important culture heritage, the notebooks were originally removed from the Special Collections Strong Rooms — where the rarest and most valuable items are kept — for photography to take place at the library in September 2000, with the photography request completed in November 2000. During a following routine check in January 2001, it was found that the small box containing the two notebooks had not been returned to its proper place. For many years, previous university librarians believed that the notebooks had been misplaced in the vast storerooms and collections of Cambridge University Library. Despite a number of searches over the years, they remained undiscovered. At the start of 2020, a new search — the largest in the library’s history – was arranged by the librarian Dr Gardner involving specialist staff assigned to search specific zones of the library’s storage facilities. However, this failed to locate the notebooks, leading to the conclusion, with the help of national experts in cultural heritage theft and recovery, that they had likely been stolen. In July 1837, Charles Darwin wrote at the top of the page of one of his notebooks, “I think”. Then he drew a sketch(草图)of a tree, attempting to pose to himself the question about what is the origin of species. More than 20 years later, Darwin published On the Origin of Species. Notebooks B and C provide an extraordinary insight into Darwin’s search for the solution to what public in those days had called “that mystery of mysteries”, the origin of new species. 24. What can we learn from the passage? A. Notebooks B and C used to be kept in a plain brown envelope. B. It took over 3 months to complete the photography in the library. C. At first the librarians believed the notebooks hadn’t been stolen. D. Charles Darwin searched the origin of trees in his notebooks. 25. Why were Notebooks B and C taken away from their original place? A. They were no longer regarded as the rarest and most valuable items. B. They had to make room for the photography of special collections. C. They would be presented for a photography exhibition in the library. D. They needed to be recorded by taking photos for better preservation. 26. When did the library confirm the theft of the notebooks? A. After completing the photography. B. After routine check in January 2001. C. After the largest search in history. D. After discovering the returned notebooks. 27. Which is this passage most likely taken from? A. A textbook. B. A newspaper. C. A science report. D. An introduction to a book. C The news industry has had a rough decade. Print readership is steadily declining, newspapers are closing, and journalists with decades of experience are being laid off. In response, major newspapers have made significant changes. They're attempting to combat declining reader interest by shortening stories, creating clickbait（诱饵性标题）, and most especially, using social media to their advantage. With the rise of social media sites, many people have claimed that we are entering a new age in which news must be delivered in 140 characters or fewer. People's ability to focus on long-form content and engage in deep reading has also been declining due to the endless distractions and excessive information in today's world. This change in reading habits has led to a preference for short, easily understood news pieces that can be quickly consumed. To interest a more specific and generally younger readership, newspapers have revised content, prioritizing articles that are visually appealing instead of having depth. But, in reality, there is still a demand for in-depth reporting. In this era of misinformation and clickbait, readers are seeking reliable sources of news that provide context, analysis, and accountability. Depth reporting explores the fundamental causes, involves multiple perspectives, and uncovers the hidden truths that shape our world, helping readers get a more comprehensive understanding of complicated matters. While social media have changed the way we consume news, the quality of news remains essential for public. It's crucial for the news industry to achieve a balance between catering to changing reader preferences while also maintaining the integrity （完整性）of news. This means providing both quick updates and in-depth analysis, and using social media to promote their content, but not at the expense of accuracy or integrity. By doing so, news organizations can ensure that they remain relevant and trusted sources of information in a rapidly changing media environment. 28. What problem does traditional news industry face? A. The decline of readership. B. The lack of long-form stories. C. The spread of unreliable information. D. The shortage of experienced journalists. 29. What does the underlined word "prioritizing" in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Checking out. B. Cutting down. C. Paying no attention to. D. Attaching importance to. 30. What do we know from paragraph 3? A. People's need for in-depth reporting is decreasing. B. Social media has played a key role in promoting hidden facts. C. Clickbait greatly increases readers' interests in exploring truths. D. In-depth reporting can improve readers' comprehension of complex issues. 31. According to the passage, the news industry should achieve a balance between _______. A. providing quick updates and focusing on popular topics B. stating matters in multiple perspectives and shortening articles C. satisfying readers' preferences and ensuring the quality of news D. widening news sources and maintaining the accuracy of contents D Food forests, also known as forest gardens or eatable forests, are appearing in urban settings across the US as a unique way to help food-insecure communities. They imitate the structure and functioning of natural forest ecosystems that produce various edible plants for the community, which reduces reliance on external food sources and promotes food self-sufficiency(自给自足). Food forests can maximize food production in a given area. In a regular garden, you're probably only planting vegetables along the ground. While this can provide a great harvest, it leaves a lot of space unused. Now imagine you are planting a fruit tree. On the shady side, you add some shade-tolerant berries, and on the sunny side you add some sun-loving berries. At the base of the sun-loving berries, you plant some annual vegetables and herbs. This food forest would result in a truly splendid harvest that would dwarf（使……相形见绌）what a regular garden the same size could provide. The genius of a food forest lies in its designed cultivation of beneficial interactions between different plant species. For instance, some plants might enrich the soil by fixing nitrogen, a natural fertilizer for neighboring vegetation, while others naturally attract beneficial insects, providing a built-in pest control mechanism. These strategic connections lead to reduced dependency on labor inputs and create an environment that is hardy and sustainable. Food forests require ongoing care and maintenance, which often involves the participation of community members. This cooperative effort develops a sense of shared responsibility and brings people together to work towards a common goal. Community members can come together to learn about planting techniques, sustainable gardening practices, and the benefits of native plants. This shared learning experience creates a platform for exchanging ideas and skills, promoting a sense of self-reliance within the community. 32. What are food forests intended for? A. Improving food quality in America. B. Protecting natural forest ecosystems. C. Beautifying the urban living environment. D. Providing food sources for the community. 33. What advantage do food forests have over regular gardens? A. They use fewer chemical fertilizers. B. They make full use of available spaces. C. They allow plants to receive more sunlight. D. They offer larger growing space for vegetables. 34. What does the example in paragraph 3 indicate? A. Food forests can help increase the diversity of species. B. Food forests require considerable labor inputs to maintain. C. Plants in food forests can benefit one another in some ways. D. The pest control mechanism in food forests is favorable to soil. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Food Forest: A Link to Communities B. Food Forest: An Efficient Food Production Method for Farmers C. Food Forest: A Strategy to Promote Significant Economic Benefits D. Food Forest: A Strategy for Community Food Self-Sufficiency and Community Cooperation 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。 Flexible Thinking for Your Career Does work ever leave you feeling stuck in a rut （一成不变）with limited opportunities to be creative? 36 But is this even possible, and if so, how to improve your flexibility? Most jobs require the ability to problem-solve and cope with challenges, at least to a certain extent. 37 If that teacher is a flexible thinker, they will be able to adapt their classroom management, even if they haven't seen this situation before. According to Leonard Mlodinow, author of Flexibility, flexible thinkers rely on idea generation（创意生成） and imagination.  38 Flexible thinking is what you need when the circumstances change, and you are dealing with something new. It's not about following rules." Therefore, instead of following the typical procedure for inducting a new student, the teacher might come up with a tailored(特制的) response, based on prediction and previous experience. 39 According to Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett, it's all about exercising the brain. One way of doing this, she says, is through exposure to a variety of experiences which make it easier to adjust to new situations. A lot of companies now consider flexible thinking in the workplace, especially when it comes to design. Workspaces may have couches where workers can lie down and relax, giving them the space to come up with and process new ideas. Mlodinow says it's very important to take time to daydream, listen to ideas and concepts you disagree with and spend time doing activities outside of your comfort zone. 40 So, if you want to make a change, you can become a flexible thinker too, with a little practice. A. They are willing to experiment and take risks. B. So, how can you become a more flexible thinker? C. To grow quickly, you might want to increase your brain's flexibility. D. Imagine a teacher who has a new and very nervous student in their class. E. Researchers have also identified numerous personality traits that are associated with creativity. F. This will help you understand multiple points of view and become better in many different aspects of your career. G. Our research also indicates that people can practice flexible thinking every day when they experience negative emotions. 第三部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分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。 I had a good job in the marketing division of a Fortune 500 company. After working for this first-class 41 for fourteen years, I got to 42 what it would be like to design a job around what I enjoyed most while using my strongest skills. I hoped to spend the next 43 of my career doing what I loved most and spend more time with the people I 44 most, my wife and sons. My wife was a stay-at-home mom, so I would sacrifice(牺牲) our only income and insurance for nothing more than a 45 . Yet, after 46 extensive (广泛的) research, reading books on how to launch this type of business, calling the authors for additional details, freelancing (从事自由职业) for ad agencies and design firms to ensure I could write on any subject, and purchasing insurance, this goal slowly developed from 47 to probable. I 48 then that author Henry David Thoreau was onto something when he said, “The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.” At thirty-seven, I had a window of opportunity to 49 a dream - to run a home-based business and spend more time with my family. I pulled the plug (终止)—and 50 my advertising and executive speechwriting business in June 1991 - thirty-two years ago. While working with different clients and sharpening my writing skills on 51 subjects, I watched my sons grow up for ten years, played hundreds of unscheduled backyard baseball games, and enjoyed countless father / son 52 while walking around the block. How would I have 53 if I had never taken a ten-year break from my corporate (公司的) career? It's a question I've asked myself before. The answer? I'd have more money in the bank - but I would also have a major deficit(赤字) in my memory 54 . Life provides windows of opportunity, but they close quickly. For me, to remain in my former company during this “window” came at a price too high. Thoreau was right; I wasn't willing to 55 more of my family life for my professional life. 41.

Her fluent English and confident demeanor showcased(风度展示) in the clips have deeply impressed the viewers, generating curiosity about how an ordinary-looking sanitation worker acquired such 56 （impress）English skills. Behind the sensation(状态) 57 （lie） a decade-long journey of persistence. In 2012, Zhang Jianna took on the role of a sanitation worker in the embassy area of Sanlitun in Beijing's Chaoyang district. A special encounter while working has motivated Zhang 58 （study）English by herself, a pursuit she continues with 59 （determine）to this day. "My goal is quite simple. I just want to help whenever someone is 60 need, whether asking for directions, inquiring about visa procedures, 61 telling them about the embassy area I am responsible for," said Zhang. Thus, at the age of 40, Zhang has started a personal challenge. Without a tutor, she began learning English from her children's textbooks. With no fixed study hours, she made full use of every spare moment. While others rested, she memorized vocabulary and practiced speaking. Over the years, she filled over a dozen notebooks with her notes. Her memory posed her biggest challenge. " 62 （learn）English at an older age, I would easily forget the words I learned the previous day. Persistence is key to learning English. Learn step by step, learn every day," Zhang said. When 63 （ask）about the greatest reward of learning English, Zhang emphasizes self-confidence. "Growing up in a rural area without a college education, I sometimes feared being looked down upon. But every time I help a stranger in English, I feel 64 （incredible）accomplished." "Tiring, but satisfying," Zhang Jianna reflected on her work, summarizing her dedication(投入) and relentless(不懈的) pursuit of language learning. "To serve others makes me happy, and it's the situation 65 I prove my self-worth," said Zhang. 第四部分写作(共两节, 满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Peter对中国文化很感兴趣，在春节来临之际，请你给他写封信，邀请他到你家和你的家人一起过春节。内容包括： 1. 发出邀请； 2. 活动安排（吃年夜饭、放烟花、逛庙会等）； 3. 你的期望。 注意: 1.词数80左右; 2. 开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。 Dear peter,  How is everything going? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I am looking forward to your reply and wish you a good stay here during the festival.

How pleased and proud Mother would be when they brought her breakfast in bed. They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do. The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely. Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess now. Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge. But Jeff’s hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 As the twins looked around them in disappointment, their father appeared. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The twins carried the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高二英语试题 第 1 页 共 10 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023—2024学年下期高二开学考试 英语答案 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) A 【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了罗马的几个价格低廉，安全舒适的旅馆。 21. C 细节理解题。根据第一段“Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel (旅社).(罗马对旅行者来说可能很贵，这就是为什么许多人选择住在旅馆)”可知，选择住旅社的旅行者可能最关心的是价格。故选C。 22. B细节理解题。根据Hostel Alessandro Palace部分“If you love social hostels, this is the best hostel for you in Rome.(如果你喜欢社交旅馆，这是罗马最适合你的旅馆)”可知，如果喜欢活跃社交生活的人，Hostel Alessandro Palace是罗马最适合你的旅馆。故选B。 23. C细节理解题。根据Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes部分“However, you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.(但是，你需要支付每天2欧元的Wi-Fi费用)”可知，Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes的缺点是Wi-Fi收费。故选C。 B 【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了达尔文所写的两本“被盗”笔记本神秘地归还了剑桥大学，这距离它们最后一次被人看到已经过去了22年，但究竟是谁归还了它们却是一个真正的谜题。 24. C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“For many years, previous university librarians believed that the notebooks had been misplaced in the vast storerooms and collections of Cambridge University Library(多年来，以前的大学图书管理员都认为这些笔记本在剑桥大学图书馆巨大的储藏室和藏品中被放错了地方)”可知，起初图书管理员认为笔记本只是放错了地方并没有被偷。故选C。 25.D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“With an action plan to use advanced information technology to preserve important culture heritage, the notebooks were originally removed from the Special Collections Strong Rooms — where the rarest and most valuable items are kept — for photography to take place at the library in September 2000, with the photography request completed in November 2000(根据一项使用先进信息技术保护重要文化遗产的行动计划，这些笔记本最初于2000年9月从收藏最稀有和最有价值物品的特别收藏室移走，以便在2000年11月在图书馆进行摄影，摄影要求已于2000年11月完成)”可知，这两个笔记本被拿走的原因是需要通过拍照的方式，对这两个笔记本进行保护。故选D。 26．C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“At the start of 2020, a new search — the largest in the library’s history – was arranged by the librarian Dr Gardner involving specialist staff assigned to search specific zones of the library’s storage facilities. However, this failed to locate the notebooks, leading to the conclusion, with the help of national experts in cultural heritage theft and recovery, that they had likely been stolen(2020年初，图书馆馆长加德纳博士安排了一次新的搜索，这是图书馆历史上规模最大的一次搜索，专家人员被分配到图书馆存储设施的特定区域进行搜索。然而，在国家文化遗产盗窃和恢复专家的帮助下，他们未能找到这些笔记本，从而得出结论，它们很可能已经被盗)”可知，在经历图书馆最大规模的一次搜索之后，这两本笔记本确认被盗。故选C。 27.B 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Two “stolen” notebooks, Notebooks B and C, written by Charles Darwin have been mysteriously returned to Cambridge University on March 9th, 22 years after they were last seen, but who returned them is a real whodunit(3月9日，查尔斯·达尔文(Charles Darwin)所写的两本“被盗”笔记本——笔记本B和笔记本C——神秘地归还了剑桥大学，这距离它们最后一次被人看到已经过去了22年，但究竟是谁归还了它们却是一个真正的谜题)”可知，本文主要介绍了被盗的笔记本被不知名人士归还一事。所以本文为新闻报道，即选自于报纸。故选B。 C 【语篇解读】文章主要讲述了社交媒体时代下的新闻业。 28.A细节理解题。根据第一段中的"The news industry…are being laid off."可知，新闻行业经历了艰难的十年。纸质报纸的读者数量正在稳步下降，报社正在关闭，拥有数十年经验的新闻工作者正在被解雇。由此可知，传统新闻业面临的问题是读者群体数量下降。故选A项。 29.D词义猜测题。根据画线词上文可知，由于当今世界存在太多干扰以及信息过载，人们专注于长篇内容和深度阅读的能力也在下降。这种阅读习惯的改变导致人们更倾向于阅读短小易懂、可以快速消化的新闻。由此可推知，画线词所在句应表示为了吸引特定的、更年轻的读者，报纸修改了内容，“优先考虑”那些在视觉上吸引人的文章，而不是有深度的文章。"Attaching importance to"表示“重视；着重于……”，符合语境，故选D项。 30.D细节理解题。根据第三段中的"Depth reporting explores…of complicated matters."可知，深度报道探索了事物的根本原因，涉及多种视角，并揭示了塑造我们世界的那些隐藏的真相，帮助读者更全面地理解复杂的问题。由此可知，深度报道可以提高读者对复杂问题的理解。故选D项。 31.C细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，尽管社交媒体改变了我们获取新闻的方式，但新闻的质量仍然对公众至关重要。新闻行业在满足读者不断变化的偏好的同时，保持新闻的完整性至关重要。这意味着既要提供快速的更新和深入的分析，又要利用社交媒体来推广他们的内容，但不能以牺牲准确性或完整性为代价。通过这种方式，新闻机构可以确保在快速变化的媒体环境中保持其相关性和信息的可信度。由此可知，作者建议新闻业应该在满足读者偏好的同时，确保新闻的质量。故选C项。 D 【语篇解读】文章介绍了一种独特的方式出现在美国各地的城市环境中的食物森林，旨在帮助粮食保障不足的社区。在社区成员持续的照料和维护食物森林的同时，又培养了社区的共同责任感。 32.D。细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知，食物森林，也被称为森林花园或可食用森林，其作为一种独特的方式出现在美国各地的城市环境中，旨在帮助粮食保障不足的社区。由此可知，食物森林旨在为社区提供食物来源。故选D项。 33.B。细节理解题。根据第二段的内容可知，食物森林可以最大限度地提高某一地区的粮食产量。在一个普通的菜园里，你可能只能沿着地面种植蔬菜。虽然这可以有不错的收成，但它有大量未使用的空间。由此可知，与普通菜园相比，食物森林的优势在于其能够充分利用 可用的空间。故选B项。 34.C。推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知，食物森林的“天才”之处在于它利用不同植物物种之间有益的相互作用。由此可推知，该段中的例子表明在食物森林中，植物可以以一些方式使其他植物受益。故选C项。 35.D。标题归纳题。根据首尾两段内容可知，食物森林在促进食物自给自足的同时又培养了社区共同的责任感由此可知，食物森林：是一种社区食物自给自足和社区合作的策略符合题意。故选C 项。 第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 【语篇导读】本文是说明文。文章讲述了日常工作中的 “弹性思维”， “弹性思维” 指的就是根据当前的状况来调整自己的想法、行动和感受的思维方式。人们可以通过激发想象力、尝试新事物和接触新体验来提高自己的变通能力。 36. C。C项中的flexibility与设空后的how to improve your flexibility? 相呼应。设空处“为了快速成长，你可能需要增加大脑的灵活性。”，故C项符合语境。 37. D。设空后 “如果老师是一个灵活的思想家，他们将能够适应课堂管理，即使他们以前从未见过这种情况。”，故D项“想象一下，一个老师的班上刚来了一个非常紧张的学生。”符合语境, D项中teacher属于原词复现。 38. A。设空处前一句是说，“根据《弹性》一书的作者Leonard Mlodinow的说法，灵活的思想家依赖于生成的创意和想象力。”，设空处“他们愿意尝试并承担风险”，因此，A项符合语境。A项中的they指代前一句中的flexible thinkers。 39. B。设空处为小标题。后面一段的内容主要谈了“弹性思维的练习方式”，故B项“那么，你如何才能成为一个更好的弹性思维者？”符合语境。 40. F。设空处前一句是说，“Mlodinow说，花时间做白日梦，倾听不同意见和概念，花时间在舒适区之外做活动，这一点非常重要。”，设空处“这将帮助你理解多个观点，并在职业生涯的许多不同方面变得更好。”，因此，F项符合语境。F项中的this指代前一句中的做法。 第三部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 【语篇解读】本文是夹叙夹议文。为了平衡工作和生活，作者从一家世界500强公司离职，选择了自主创业。 41.
