B A British woman, Dr. Mantri, growing up in India started to notice her son, Dhruv, was struggling with simple math problems when he was in the fifth grade. After noticing this, she started using an abacus (算盘) to help her son visually (形象化地) understand mathematics. “I would ask him something like 35 minus 13 but he ‘couldn’t’ do it,” said Dhruv’s mom Dr. Mantri. “I decided to change the way he looked at numbers,” she said. “An abacus is a tried and tested method, and the Egyptians used them for building the pyramid.” In just six days he started to make progress in using the abacus and would go on to become an outstanding kid with numbers, with even his classmates’ parents reaching out for help. She never thought she would teach her son to use an abacus, which she used as a child in India and it was always helpful. Within six days she started to notice a difference and see results. So dramatic was the change that school staff asked him to perform with the abacus at a meeting, where some parents even came to ask for advice on using it for their kids. IT specialist Dr. Mantri said the humble abacus can be used for calculations and kids enjoy learning on it because it’s like a game. “It becomes a playing tool for younger children, for it feels like a game. I think the success comes because children can touch and feel an abacus and visualize them,” she added. By the age of 12 Dhruv was giving online cyber security class and is now pursuing a career in data science and analytics. Dhruv has now got an apprenticeship (实习) at an international firm. During the four-year apprenticeship, he will spend one day a week studying Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at Glasgow Caledonian University. “He is so confident now and I am so proud,” Dr. Mantri said, with Dhruv adding, “I don’t think my teachers would have guessed that I would be following a career in data science at that time.” 4. Why did Dr. Mantri begin to use an abacus to teach his son? A. Her son showed high interest in the toy abacus. B. Her son had some difficulty in learning maths. C. Her son had talent for numbers when young. D. Her son once watched others use an abacus. 5. What can we know from what Dr. Mantri said in Paragraph 2? A. The abacus had been out of date now. B. The abacus had a very long history. C. The abacus was easy for most people to use. D. The abacus was a challenge for her son. 6. What is the main topic of Paragraph 4? A. The way to teach children to learn on an abacus. B. The development and change of the abacus in history. C. The reason why children would love to learn on an abacus. D. The disadvantage of using an abacus to calculate an amount. 7. What is true about Dhruv at present? A. He is a full-time student at Glasgow Caledonian University. B. He is expert in data science and analytics now. C. He gives online cyber security class now. D He works in an international company. C A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has created a type of buoy (浮标) that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds, thus preventing them from getting caught in gill nets (刺网) — a type of fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly invisible underwater. Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gill nets. Some estimates suggest that up to a half-million birds are caught in them each year. Over the years, researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gill nets, but those didn’t work well. To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds in a general sense, expecting to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds avoided eye contact with other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple idea—they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes (金鱼眼) to the top of it. They made the eyes big enough so that even birds with poor eyesight, such as geese, would see them. Adding to the effectiveness of the device, waves made the eyes move back and forth. And the wind made the buoy spin (转动) very slowly, making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes. To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near the gill nets and counted how many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gill nets dropped by about 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks after they had been removed. 8. Where were the googly eyes placed? A. Under a buoy. B. Inside a buoy. C. At the bottom of a pole. D. On the highest part of a pole. 9. What does the underlined word “they” refer to in the last paragraph? A. The fish. B. The birds. C. The buoys. D. The plants. 10. How did the researchers find their new idea? A. Worthless. B. Practical. C. Costly. D. Complex. 11 Why did seabirds love to approach the gill nets? A. To get something to eat. B. To have a rest on the nets. C. To nest on them and lay eggs. D. To take a close look at the googly eyes. D Primary and secondary school learners, university students, and guests were invited on Wednesday and were treated to a colorful celebration at the Confucius Institute at the University of Nairobi, to mark the beginning of the year of the dragon which officially starts on Saturday. The place featured beautiful decorations with red and gold colors and lucky symbols. Visitors got an opportunity to participate in cultural experiences including painting, papercutting and pot throwing as well as experiencing Chinese cuisines like spicy hotpot, steamed stuffed buns (包子) , Chinese hamburgers, dumplings and barbecue among others. They were also treated to heartwarming performances including face-changing, lion dance, dragon dance, drumming, Chinese opera, Chinese songs and a talent show featuring Chinese traditional clothes as well as a mixture of Chinese and Kenyan fashion. Leah Muthoni, a student at the University of Nairobi lauded the Chinese cuisines served at the event, especially noodles and dumplings. She also appreciated the decorations, drawings, pictures and performances. Similar feelings were also shared by George Mwita, another student from the University of Nairobi who greatly enjoyed the pot throwing game. In his welcoming speech, Professor Stephen Kiama, the vice headmaster of the University of Nairobi who doubles up as the Kenya director of the Confucius Institute, hoped this year will be a good year of development because the Chinese dragon horns represent power and strength, while the drums represent courage and energy. Kiama said the Confucius Institute at the University of Nairobi has achieved a lot since its establishment in 2005, including winning the Confucius Institute of the Year Award seven times and pioneering the establishment of the Bachelor of Arts in the Chinese language in Kenya. “Last year, with the joint efforts of the various parties and stakeholders we established the first bachelor of education in Chinese in Kenya and we admitted the first group of students,” he said. Kiama hopes that this year the Confucius Institute will gain more force with the blessing of power, courage and vitality from the year of the Chinese dragon. He said the Confucius Institute offers a good platform for cultural exchange between China and Kenya through events like the Chinese Lunar Year celebrations. Kiama hoped that the relationship between China and Kenya would further be strengthened by the blessings of the year of the dragon. In Chinese methodology (方法论) , the dragon has the power to control seasons, time and harvests, and it’s seen as a symbol of wealth. The Chinese consider dragons to be powerful. sympathetic, wise, kind and warm. 12. What is spoken of as one of the cultural experiences the visitors participated in? A. Tasting Chinese cuisines. B.

A recent study has measured, for the first time, the damage that can be caused to animals in urban areas on China’s fast-developing road network. ___17___. Li Zhongqiu and his team from Nanjing University’s School of Life looked at the problem in cities, where roadkill could have an even larger impact. They chose Nanjing as the study subject, where there are more than 9,700 kilometers of paved roads. A total of nine roads were chosen for the research, including three national highways. ___18___. The researchers then monitored the roads every two weeks over a year. The team recorded a total of 293 individual roadkill cases.

This may be owing to the fact that some warm-blooded animals have to go out and search for food during these times when food is hard to find. “Roadkill has resulted in the decline (下降) of urban animal populations and must be taken seriously,” Li said. The researchers also call on policymakers to put forward related traffic rules and animal protection rules, such as speed limits and traffic controls. A. You may not feel good about seeing roadkill B. The object is to educate people about road safety C. The length of the roads combined was over 224.27 kilometers D.

I was also heartbroken. The bookstore was a place where anyone in the neighborhood could drop by (顺便拜访) and be connected through their love of books. When I hurried to the store, I saw the books were being packed into boxes. Sighing deeply, the store’s elderly owner, Thomas, told me how it was becoming difficult to run an independent bookstore. Most young people preferred to read e-books on tablets. Customers were being attracted by chain stores and online discounts. I tried to think of some words of sympathy, but I had to admit that the Sunshine Bookstore couldn’t stay in business much longer. Childhood memories came flooding back. A bunch of us kids would frequently drop into the store after school, looking at the new books, or just chatting with old Thomas. He knew every book in the store and would always pick the perfect one for us. We spent hours reading, seated on the store’s old, but comfortable furniture. Thomas encouraged us to share our ideas and comments on the books by writing them on a large board in one corner of the store. When I left the bookstore, it was becoming cold and dark outside. I turned to wave goodbye to Thomas, but both he and his bookstore were already hidden in a thick mist. It made me realize that the bookstore and all that old Thomas had given to the community could soon disappear for good. A few months later, I was back in the neighborhood from my vacation and was surprised to see that the Sunshine Bookstore was still there and open for business. Its old brick outside hadn’t changed, but inside it was like a different world. Clearly, the Sunshine Bookstore was in good and creative hands. I was told that the community had decided to work together on a campaign to save the Sunshine Bookstore. The campaign had been led by Martin, a salesman who had grown up in the neighborhood and who was helping Thomas run the bookstore. 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。 I entered the bookstore and saw how it had changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Where is Thomas,” I said to myself. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1~5 ABCAB 6~10 CACCA 11~15 CBABC 16~20 AABBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 齐市普高联谊校2023~2024学年下学期期中考试 高二英语 考生注意： 1. 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必用直径0. 5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上，选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;非选择题请用直径0. 5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围：外研版选择性必修Book 1 Unit 4~Book 2 Unit 3. 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

After noticing this, she started using an abacus (算盘) to help her son visually (形象化地) understand mathematics. “I would ask him something like 35 minus 13 but he ‘couldn’t’ do it,” said Dhruv’s mom Dr. Mantri. “I decided to change the way he looked at numbers,” she said. “An abacus is a tried and tested method, and the Egyptians used them for building the pyramid.” In just six days he started to make progress in using the abacus and would go on to become an outstanding kid with numbers, with even his classmates’ parents reaching out for help. She never thought she would teach her son to use an abacus, which she used as a child in India and it was always helpful. Within six days she started to notice a difference and see results. So dramatic was the change that school staff asked him to perform with the abacus at a meeting, where some parents even came to ask for advice on using it for their kids. IT specialist Dr. Mantri said the humble abacus can be used for calculations and kids enjoy learning on it because it’s like a game. “It becomes a playing tool for younger children, for it feels like a game. I think the success comes because children can touch and feel an abacus and visualize them,” she added. By the age of 12, Dhruv was giving online cyber security class and is now pursuing a career in data science and analytics. Dhruv has now got an apprenticeship (实习) at an international firm. During the four-year apprenticeship, he will spend one day a week studying Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at Glasgow Caledonian University. “He is so confident now and I am so proud,” Dr. Mantri said, with Dhruv adding, “I don’t think my teachers would have guessed that I would be following a career in data science at that time.” 4. Why did Dr. Mantri begin to use an abacus to teach his son? A. Her son showed high interest in the toy abacus. B. Her son had some difficulty in learning maths. C. Her son had talent for numbers when young. D. Her son once watched others use an abacus. 5. What can we know from what Dr. Mantri said in Paragraph 2? A. The abacus had been out of date now. B. The abacus had a very long history. C. The abacus was easy for most people to use. D. The abacus was a challenge for her son. 6. What is the main topic of Paragraph 4? A. The way to teach children to learn on an abacus. B. The development and change of the abacus in history. C. The reason why children would love to learn on an abacus. D. The disadvantage of using an abacus to calculate an amount. 7. What is true about Dhruv at present? A. He is a full-time student at Glasgow Caledonian University. B. He is expert in data science and analytics now. C. He gives online cyber security class now. D. He works in an international company. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7.

After noticing this, she started using an abacus(算盘) to help her son visually(形象化地) understand mathematics.(在印度长大的英国女士Mantri博士开始注意到，她的儿子Dhruv在五年级时就在与简单的数学问题作斗争。注意到这一点后，她开始用算盘帮助儿子直观地理解数学。)”可知，Mantri博士因为注意到儿子学习数学有困难，所以决定用算盘帮助儿子。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“An abacus is a tried and tested method, and the Egyptians used them for building the pyramid.(算盘是一种久经考验的方法，埃及人用它来建造金字塔。)”可知，算盘曾被埃及人用来建造金字塔，由此可推测出，算盘的历史悠久。故选B。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“IT specialist Dr. Mantri said the humble abacus can be used for calculations and kids enjoy learning on it because it’s like a game. ‘It becomes a playing tool for younger children, for it feels like a game. I think the success comes because children can touch and feel an abacus and visualize them,’ she added.(IT专家Mantri博士说，这种不起眼的算盘可以用来计算，孩子们喜欢用它学习，因为它就像一个游戏。她补充道：‘它成为年幼孩子的游戏工具，因为它感觉像一个游戏。我认为成功的原因是孩子们可以触摸和感受算盘，并将其可视化。’)”可知，本段主要讲述了孩子们喜欢使用算盘学习的原因。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Dhruv has now got an apprenticeship(实习) at an international firm.(Dhruv现在在一家国际公司实习。)”可知，他现在在一家国际公司实习。故选D。 C A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has created a type of buoy (浮标) that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds, thus preventing them from getting caught in gill nets (刺网) — a type of fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly invisible underwater. Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gill nets. Some estimates suggest that up to a half-million birds are caught in them each year. Over the years, researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gill nets, but those didn’t work well. To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds in a general sense, expecting to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds avoided eye contact with other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple idea—they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes (金鱼眼) to the top of it. They made the eyes big enough so that even birds with poor eyesight, such as geese, would see them. Adding to the effectiveness of the device, waves made the eyes move back and forth. And the wind made the buoy spin (转动) very slowly, making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes. To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near the gill nets and counted how many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gill nets dropped by about 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks after they had been removed. 8. Where were the googly eyes placed? A. Under a buoy. B. Inside a buoy. C At the bottom of a pole. D. On the highest part of a pole. 9. What does the underlined word “they” refer to in the last paragraph? A. The fish. B. The birds. C. The buoys. D. The plants. 10. How did the researchers find their new idea? A. Worthless. B. Practical. C. Costly. D. Complex. 11. Why did seabirds love to approach the gill nets? A. To get something to eat. B. To have a rest on the nets. C. To nest on them and lay eggs. D. To take a close look at the googly eyes. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一个由英国和爱沙尼亚的研究机构组成的研究团队，他们发明了一种特殊的浮标，这种浮标能有效吓走海鸟，防止它们被刺网捕获。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then the researchers came up with a simple idea — they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes (金鱼眼) to the top of it. (然后，研究人员想出了一个简单的主意——他们把一根小杆子绑在一个普通的浮标上，然后在它的顶部绑上一对金鱼眼)”可知，研究人员在普通的浮标上加了一个杆子，然后在杆子的顶部安装了一对金鱼眼。由此可知，金鱼眼是放在杆子的最高部分。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks (他们还发现，这些鸟不太可能在浮标放置长达三周的地方捕鱼)”可知，海鸟在浮标被移除后的三周内仍然不太可能在附近捕鱼。由此可知，划线词“they”指代的事“被移除的浮标”。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near the gill nets and counted how many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gill nets dropped by about 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. (为了验证他们的想法，研究人员选择了靠近刺网的几个地点，并计算了有多少只鸟靠近刺网，有多少只试图在刺网附近捕鱼。然后，他们设置了眼睛大的浮标，再次计算鸟类的数量。在62天的时间里，他们发现在长达50米的距离内，试图在刺网附近捕鱼的鸟类数量下降了约25%)”可知，研究人员发现使用金鱼眼的浮标能够减少大约25%的海鸟试图在刺网附近捕鱼。由此推知，这个新想法是实用的。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gill nets. (每年，成千上万的海鸟被刺网捕获而死亡)”以及本段中“Over the years, researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gill nets, but those didn’t work well.(多年来，研究人员发明了一些装置来防止鸟类试图在刺网附近或刺网中捕鱼，但效果并不好)”可知，海鸟之所以会接近刺网，是因为它们想要捕鱼作为食物。由此推知，它们接近刺网的目的是为了捕食。故选A。 D Primary and secondary school learners, university students, and guests were invited on Wednesday and were treated to a colorful celebration at the Confucius Institute at the University of Nairobi, to mark the beginning of the year of the dragon which officially starts on Saturday. The place featured beautiful decorations with red and gold colors and lucky symbols. Visitors got an opportunity to participate in cultural experiences including painting, papercutting and pot throwing as well as experiencing Chinese cuisines like spicy hotpot, steamed stuffed buns (包子) , Chinese hamburgers, dumplings and barbecue among others.

I was also heartbroken. The bookstore was a place where anyone in the neighborhood could drop by (顺便拜访) and be connected through their love of books. When I hurried to the store, I saw the books were being packed into boxes. Sighing deeply, the store’s elderly owner, Thomas, told me how it was becoming difficult to run an independent bookstore. Most young people preferred to read e-books on tablets. Customers were being attracted by chain stores and online discounts. I tried to think of some words of sympathy, but I had to admit that the Sunshine Bookstore couldn’t stay in business much longer. Childhood memories came flooding back. A bunch of us kids would frequently drop into the store after school, looking at the new books, or just chatting with old Thomas. He knew every book in the store and would always pick the perfect one for us. We spent hours reading, seated on the store’s old, but comfortable furniture. Thomas encouraged us to share our ideas and comments on the books by writing them on a large board in one corner of the store. When I left the bookstore, it was becoming cold and dark outside. I turned to wave goodbye to Thomas, but both he and his bookstore were already hidden in a thick mist. It made me realize that the bookstore and all that old Thomas had given to the community could soon disappear for good. A few months later, I was back in the neighborhood from my vacation and was surprised to see that the Sunshine Bookstore was still there and open for business. Its old brick outside hadn’t changed, but inside it was like a different world. Clearly, the Sunshine Bookstore was in good and creative hands. I was told that the community had decided to work together on a campaign to save the Sunshine Bookstore. The campaign had been led by Martin, a salesman who had grown up in the neighborhood and who was helping Thomas run the bookstore. 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。 I entered the bookstore and saw how it had changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Where is Thomas,” I said to myself. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I entered the bookstore and saw how it had changed. With Martin’s help, the bookstore was being turned into a different place. In one area, some members of the reading club of our community were reading some books and discussing their plots and themes. Nearby, some customers were gathering around the shelves filled with stationery, pictures and other goods. The large board in the corner had been replaced by a big screen, where customers’ comments on the month’s best-seller were being displayed. The bookstore also became a place for literature-loving members to get together to participate in various community events, where people could share their experiences that couldn’t be downloaded. “Where is Thomas, ” I said to myself. I suddenly saw Thomas, who was reading readers’ comments on the big screen, and joined him. “Well, as you can see, business knowledge combined with creativity has changed my humble bookstore into a modern one! I’m so pleased to see that everything I wanted it to offer to the community is still here.” Thomas said with emotion, tears welling up in his eyes. Patting him on the shoulder, I felt truly lucky for both Thomas and myself to still have the bookstore in the neighborhood to provide people with not only knowledge but also precious memories. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了阳光书店在经营五十年后因面临困境即将关闭，由马丁领导的一场运动，托马斯的努力经营下以及社区的居民通过共同努力和创新思维，成功挽救了这家书店，使其焕发新生，继续成为人们分享知识和珍贵记忆的地方。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我走进书店，看到了它的变化。”可知，第一段可描写作者看到书店发生的变化。 ②由第二段首句内容““托马斯在哪儿?”我自言自语到。”可知，第二段可描写作者见到托马斯的场景以及展开的对话，同时描写作者最终的感悟。 2.续写线索： 走进书店——看到书店的变化——书店内的大屏幕上显示着对顾客畅销书的评论——书店成为爱好文学成员的聚集地——作者找到托马斯进行交谈——最终感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①转变：turn into/switch into ②展示：display/show ③参与：participate in/take part in 情绪类 ①.开心：pleased/delighted ②.哭了：tears welling up/with tears rolling down 【点睛】[高分句型1].
