B In January, 2021, the life of the 17-year-old high school student Mason Branstator took an unexpected turn. Skiing down a hill he had been on countless times, he hit a jump too fast. When waking up in the intensive care unit, he learned from the doctor he was left with a severely broken back, which would significantly impact his lower body functions. Despite being told that he might never walk again, Mason’s unbending optimism and determination have fueled his extraordinary journey of recovery and self-discovery. Following his accident, Mason entered a health recovery center at Craig Hospital, Colorado. There he was surrounded by others on similar paths, which, coupled with his positive outlook, played a crucial role in his recovery. Mason’s journey was not just about regaining physical strength but also about overcoming mental barriers. Through willpower, he began to walk again, proving that the impossible could be made possible. Mason’s newfound viewpoint on life led him to try activities that he once thought were beyond his reach. From surfing and rock climbing to competing in triathlons, he rediscovered parts of himself. He documented his adventures online, which ended up as a source of inspiration for millions worldwide. “It all started with me just wanting to find more people like me I could connect with and talk through all the hard things I was going through,” said Mason. “And it turned into what inspired millions of people around the world, an incredible thing—I didn’t even intend for it to.” Mason’s story strikes the heartstrings of people, not merely for the physical goals he has achieved but for the message of hope and determination he represents. He challenges what it means to live with a disability and redefines the boundaries of what is possible, inspiring millions to do the same. Alongside the communities he has built online, and the one he already has—his supportive family, he has no intention of slowing down. 4 What was the turning point in Mason’s life? A. His sightseeing tour. B. His first attempt at skiing. C. A sports-related accident. D. A chance encounter with a doctor. 5. What matters most for Mason’s recovery apart from his positive outlook? A. The comfort from his family. B. The company of those like him. C. Donations from kind-hearted people. D. Advanced medical instruments. 6. What was Mason’s initial intention of sharing his story online? A. To appeal for more attention. B. To showcase his survival skills. C. To motivate like-minded souls. D. To seek connection and understanding. 7. What can we learn from Mason’s story? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Better late than never. C. Action speaks louder than words. D. Where there’s a will, there is a way. C Jumbo Supermarket is tackling shoplifting by laying hands on new technology: Artificial .Intelligence (AI). Smart cameras, equipped with software from French company Veesion, detect questionable behaviour and help report thieving from shops. With 100 million euros lost to shoplifters last year, Jumbo is starting a trial in its own shops this week. The smart AI technology uses complicated software connected to the existing cameras and security network through the Internet, It then automatically monitors all the cameras at the same time for potential shopping activity. The technology is not faultless, but it significantly increases the chances of being caught. When a customer puts a product in his pocket or bag, the smart camera notices and reports it. This ensures that shoplifters can be caught in the act. At Jumbo’s supermarket in Hengelo, Netherlands, 47 cameras have been fitted. AI is also being applied at other Jumbo locations. The cameras are strategically placed to identify questionable behaviour as effectively as possible. The system doesn’t actually label people as thieves; rather, it reminds the staff to check on those people as they might steal things. Sometimes the system raises an unjustified alarm. Nevertheless, it has proved a valuable tool for staff. More than 110 supermarkets in the Netherlands have already used Veesion’s technology. According to the Personal Data Authority, supermarkets are allowed to use such technologies, provided they can properly justify why it is necessary. The use of AI in stores is not just limited to stealing prevention. Globally, various AI. technologies are being used to improve the shopping experience and take full advantage of business processes. Also, shops use them for customized marketing. Michaels Stores, for example, a shop selling handmade goods, uses AI to tailor its advertising to each customer, which makes them feel more engaged and more likely to receive special offers that suit them. The company has created a system that helps create advertising copy and understand s which messages work best for different types of customers. 8. On getting an alarm from the system, what should shop staff do? A. Arrest the suspect. B. Find out the truth. C. Make an emergency call. D. Preserve photographic evidence. 9. On what condition is Veesion’s technology permitted in supermarkets? A. They can prove it reasonable to use. B. They stop reporting thieving to the police. C. They can indicate it isn’t meant for thieves. D. They’ve suffered massive shopping losses. 10. What does the underlined word “tailor” mean in paragraph 5? A. Equalize. B. Promise. C. Personalize. D. Teach. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. AI: End of Stealing B. Benefits and Drawbacks of AI C. Can AI Dominate Us? D. Jumbo Uses AI to Fight Shoplifting D A new study finds the body undergoes significant, systematic changes across multiple organs during prolonged periods of fasting, demonstrating evidence of health benefits beyond weight loss. It also shows any potential health-transforming changes appear to occur only after three days without food. Over centuries, humans have developed the ability to survive without food for long. Fasting is practiced by people worldwide for different medical and cultural purposes. During fasting, the body changes its source and type of energy, switching from consumed calories to using its own fat stores. However, beyond this change in fuel sources, little is known about how the body responds to prolonged periods without food. Novel techniques allowing researchers to measure thousands of proteins (蛋白质) in our blood provide the opportunity to systematically study molecular(分子) adaptions to fasting in great detail. Researchers followed 12 healthy volunteers participating in a seven-day water-only fast. The volunteers were monitored closely on a daily basis to record changes in the levels of around 3, 000 proteins in their blood before, during, and after the fast. By identifying which proteins are involved in the body’s response, the researchers could then predict potential health outcomes of prolonged fasting by analyzing information from numerous studies. As expected, the researchers observed the body switching energy sources within the first three days of fasting. The volunteers lost an average of 5.7 kg of both fat mass and lean (瘦肉)mass. After three days of eating after fasting, the weight stayed off—the loss of lean was almost completely recovered, but the fat mass stayed off. For the first time, the researchers observed the body undergoing distinct changes in protein levels after three days of fasting—indicating a whole-body response to complete calorie restriction. Overall, one in three of the proteins measured changed significantly during fasting across all major organs. These changes were consistent across the volunteers. Head of the research Claudia Langenberg said, “Our results provide solid evidence for the health benefits of fasting beyond weight loss, but these were only visible after three days of total caloric restriction—later than we previously thought.” 12. What does the study focus on? A. Health benefits of nutrient intake. B. Links between dieting and culture. C. Maximum duration of human fasting. D. Effects of skipping food on health. 13. What enables researchers to identify multi-organ response to fasting on. a molecular level? A. Enthusiastic participants. B. Emerging testing means. C. Deep-rooted belief in fasting. D. Historical records of fasting. 14. What happens to the body after three food-free days? A. Certain proteins are shifted. B. The weight remains unchanged. C. Lean mass returned to normal. D. Fat mass substantially increases. 15. How may Claudia feel about their study outcomes? A. Satisfied. B. Confused. C. Regretful. D. Embarrassed. 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。 Human beings need interpersonal connection.

He admired the attractive sights along the road with colorful flowers on both sides, and fresh air full of pleasant smell. It seemed to be a great day. Mark was passing a park when he noticed an elderly woman walking about 100 meters ahead slowly falling down onto the ground. He felt his heart standing still with great concern. With nobody else around to turn to for help, Mark decided to ride over to see what was wrong with her for himself. As he approached the old lady, he found her lying on the ground and looking pale and weak. Judging from her untidy clothes and messy hair, she might have been out for more than one day. “Are you all right, Granny?” Shaking her arm, Mark asked anxiously. The old lady opened her eyes, a confused and lost expression on her face. She hesitated and then took a closer look. Immediately a big smile appeared on her face. Grasping Mark’s hand, she said with shining eyes, “John, there you are at last! My son, I’m hungry... hungry... Give me food...” She repeated, patting herself on the stomach. Not knowing what to do, Mark anxiously asked her, “Granny, where is your home? Can you tell me who your son is?” But the old lady didn’t respond, only mumbling (嘟囔), “I’m hungry. Give me food, John.” Obviously, she mistook Mark for her son. All of a sudden, Mark realized the old lady might be a patient with Alzheimer’s (痴呆症)disease because his own late grandpa used to suffer from such a condition. “She might have gone out without being noticed by her family. They must have been worried about her. Maybe they’re searching like crazy for her everywhere.” Mark thought to himself, “But she is so starved. I must give her some food before I get in touch with her family.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Looking around, Mark saw Billy’s Hamburgers nearby. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just then the old lady reached into her pocket, a note dropping out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023—2024学年度第二学期期中学业水平诊断 高二英语 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，只交答题卡。 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。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.

Smart cameras, equipped with software from French company Veesion, detect questionable behaviour and help report thieving from shops. With 100 million euros lost to shoplifters last year, Jumbo is starting a trial in its own shops this week. The smart AI technology uses complicated software connected to the existing cameras and security network through the Internet, It then automatically monitors all the cameras at the same time for potential shopping activity. The technology is not faultless, but it significantly increases the chances of being caught. When a customer puts a product in his pocket or bag, the smart camera notices and reports it. This ensures that shoplifters can be caught in the act. At Jumbo’s supermarket in Hengelo, Netherlands, 47 cameras have been fitted. AI is also being applied at other Jumbo locations. The cameras are strategically placed to identify questionable behaviour as effectively as possible. The system doesn’t actually label people as thieves; rather, it reminds the staff to check on those people as they might steal things. Sometimes the system raises an unjustified alarm. Nevertheless, it has proved a valuable tool for staff. More than 110 supermarkets in the Netherlands have already used Veesion’s technology. According to the Personal Data Authority, supermarkets are allowed to use such technologies, provided they can properly justify why it is necessary. The use of AI in stores is not just limited to stealing prevention. Globally, various AI. technologies are being used to improve the shopping experience and take full advantage of business processes. Also, shops use them for customized marketing. Michaels Stores, for example, a shop selling handmade goods, uses AI to tailor its advertising to each customer, which makes them feel more engaged and more likely to receive special offers that suit them. The company has created a system that helps create advertising copy and understand s which messages work best for different types of customers. 8. On getting an alarm from the system, what should shop staff do? A. Arrest the suspect. B. Find out the truth. C. Make an emergency call. D. Preserve photographic evidence. 9. On what condition is Veesion’s technology permitted in supermarkets? A. They can prove it reasonable to use. B. They stop reporting thieving to the police. C. They can indicate it isn’t meant for thieves. D. They’ve suffered massive shopping losses. 10. What does the underlined word “tailor” mean in paragraph 5? A. Equalize. B. Promise. C. Personalize. D. Teach. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. AI: End of Stealing B. Benefits and Drawbacks of AI C. Can AI Dominate Us? D. Jumbo Uses AI to Fight Shoplifting 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】：本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了Jumbo超市利用人工智能技术来打击商店盗窃行为的情况。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The system doesn’t actually label people as thieves; rather, it reminds the staff to check on those people as they might steal things.”（这个系统并不直接将人们标记为小偷，而是提醒员工去检查那些可能会偷东西的人。）可推知，当系统发出警报时，店员应该去查明真相。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“According to the Personal Data Authority, supermarkets are allowed to use such technologies, provided they can properly justify why it is necessary.”（根据个人数据权威机构，只要超市能够合理地证明使用这种技术的必要性，就允许使用这种技术。）可推知，只要能证明使用Veesion的技术是合理的，就允许在超市中使用。故选A。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第五段“Globally, various AI. technologies are being used to improve the shopping experience and take full advantage of business processes. Also, shops use them for customized marketing.”（在全球范围内，各种各样的人工智能。技术被用来改善购物体验，并充分利用业务流程。）以及“which makes them feel more engaged and more likely to receive special offers that suit them.”（这让他们感觉更投入，更有可能收到适合他们的特别优惠。）可知，利用AI技术为每个顾客定制广告，这使他们感到更加参与其中，更有可能接收到适合他们的特别优惠。可推知，这里的“tailor”意为“个性化”。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段“Jumbo Supermarket is tackling shoplifting by laying hands on new technology: Artificial .Intelligence (AI). Smart cameras, equipped with software from French company Veesion, detect questionable behaviour and help report thieving from shops. With 100 million euros lost to shoplifters last year, Jumbo is starting a trial in its own shops this week.”（Jumbo超市正在利用新技术——人工智能(AI)来解决入店行窃问题。智能摄像头配备了法国公司Veesion软件，可以检测可疑行为，并帮助举报商店的盗窃行为。去年，Jumbo因商店扒手而损失了1亿欧元，该公司本周将在自己的商店开始试行这项服务。）可以看出本文主要讲述了Jumbo超市利用人工智能技术来打击商店盗窃行为的情况，故选D。 D A new study finds the body undergoes significant, systematic changes across multiple organs during prolonged periods of fasting, demonstrating evidence of health benefits beyond weight loss. It also shows any potential health-transforming changes appear to occur only after three days without food. Over centuries, humans have developed the ability to survive without food for long. Fasting is practiced by people worldwide for different medical and cultural purposes. During fasting, the body changes its source and type of energy, switching from consumed calories to using its own fat stores. However, beyond this change in fuel sources, little is known about how the body responds to prolonged periods without food. Novel techniques allowing researchers to measure thousands of proteins (蛋白质) in our blood provide the opportunity to systematically study molecular(分子) adaptions to fasting in great detail. Researchers followed 12 healthy volunteers participating in a seven-day water-only fast. The volunteers were monitored closely on a daily basis to record changes in the levels of around 3, 000 proteins in their blood before, during, and after the fast. By identifying which proteins are involved in the body’s response, the researchers could then predict potential health outcomes of prolonged fasting by analyzing information from numerous studies. As expected, the researchers observed the body switching energy sources within the first three days of fasting. The volunteers lost an average of 5.7 kg of both fat mass and lean (瘦肉)mass. After three days of eating after fasting, the weight stayed off—the loss of lean was almost completely recovered, but the fat mass stayed off. For the first time, the researchers observed the body undergoing distinct changes in protein levels after three days of fasting—indicating a whole-body response to complete calorie restriction. Overall, one in three of the proteins measured changed significantly during fasting across all major organs. These changes were consistent across the volunteers. Head of the research Claudia Langenberg said, “Our results provide solid evidence for the health benefits of fasting beyond weight loss, but these were only visible after three days of total caloric restriction—later than we previously thought.” 12. What does the study focus on? A. Health benefits of nutrient intake. B. Links between dieting and culture. C. Maximum duration of human fasting. D. Effects of skipping food on health. 13. What enables researchers to identify multi-organ response to fasting on. a molecular level? A. Enthusiastic participants. B. Emerging testing means. C. Deep-rooted belief in fasting. D. Historical records of fasting. 14. What happens to the body after three food-free days? A. Certain proteins are shifted. B. The weight remains unchanged. C. Lean mass returned to normal. D. Fat mass substantially increases. 15. How may Claudia feel about their study outcomes? A. Satisfied. B. Confused. C. Regretful. D. Embarrassed. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。一项新的研究发现，在长时间禁食期间，身体的多个器官会发生显著的系统性变化。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“A new study finds the body undergoes significant, systematic changes across multiple organs during prolonged periods of fasting, demonstrating evidence of health benefits beyond weight loss. It also shows any potential health-transforming changes appear to occur only after three days without food.(一项新的研究发现，在长时间禁食期间，身体的多个器官会发生显著的系统性变化，这证明了减肥之外对健康的益处。它还表明，任何潜在的健康转变变化似乎只有在三天没有食物的情况下才会发生。)”可知，这项研究的重点是禁食对健康的影响。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段“Novel techniques allowing researchers to measure thousands of proteins (蛋白质) in our blood provide the opportunity to systematically study molecular(分子) adaptions to fasting in great detail.(新技术使研究人员能够测量我们血液中成千上万的蛋白质提供的系统地详细研究对禁食的分子适应的机会。)”可知，新兴的检测手段使研究人员能够在分子水平上识别对禁食的多器官反应。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第五段“For the first time, the researchers observed the body undergoing distinct changes in protein levels after three days of fasting—indicating a whole-body response to complete calorie restriction. Overall, one in three of the proteins measured changed significantly during fasting across all major organs. These changes were consistent across the volunteers.(研究人员首次观察到，禁食三天后，身体的蛋白质水平发生了明显变化，这表明全身对完全的卡路里限制有反应。总的来说，在禁食期间，三分之一的蛋白质在所有主要器官中发生了显著变化。这些变化在志愿者中是一致的。)”可知，某些蛋白质在三天禁食后发生变化。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“Our results provide solid evidence for the health benefits of fasting beyond weight loss, but these were only visible after three days of total caloric restriction—later than we previously thought.(我们的研究结果为禁食除了减肥之外的健康益处提供了确凿的证据，但这些益处只有在总热量限制三天后才能显现出来——比我们之前认为的要晚。)”可知，Claudia对研究结果是感到满意的。故选A项。 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。 Human beings need interpersonal connection.

He admired the attractive sights along the road with colorful flowers on both sides, and fresh air full of pleasant smell. It seemed to be a great day. Mark was passing a park when he noticed an elderly woman walking about 100 meters ahead slowly falling down onto the ground. He felt his heart standing still with great concern. With nobody else around to turn to for help, Mark decided to ride over to see what was wrong with her for himself. As he approached the old lady, he found her lying on the ground and looking pale and weak. Judging from her untidy clothes and messy hair, she might have been out for more than one day. “Are you all right, Granny?” Shaking her arm, Mark asked anxiously. The old lady opened her eyes, a confused and lost expression on her face. She hesitated and then took a closer look. Immediately a big smile appeared on her face. Grasping Mark’s hand, she said with shining eyes, “John, there you are at last! My son, I’m hungry... hungry... Give me food...” She repeated, patting herself on the stomach. Not knowing what to do, Mark anxiously asked her, “Granny, where is your home? Can you tell me who your son is?” But the old lady didn’t respond, only mumbling (嘟囔), “I’m hungry. Give me food, John.” Obviously, she mistook Mark for her son. All of a sudden, Mark realized the old lady might be a patient with Alzheimer’s (痴呆症)disease because his own late grandpa used to suffer from such a condition. “She might have gone out without being noticed by her family. They must have been worried about her. Maybe they’re searching like crazy for her everywhere.” Mark thought to himself, “But she is so starved. I must give her some food before I get in touch with her family.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Looking around, Mark saw Billy’s Hamburgers nearby. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just then the old lady reached into her pocket, a note dropping out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Looking around, Mark saw Billy’s Hamburgers nearby. Mark walks into the burger bar and starts picking out some burgers. He picks out the most expensive burgers in the restaurant. Seeing the large quantity of expensive bread, the cashier asked puzzled, “Are these hamburgers for you to eat?” Mark replied, “ I didn’t eat it, I bought it for an old lady.” Then he told the whole story. At this time, the burger restaurant owner just heard what Mark said, and then told the cashier to give Mark’s hamburger free, saying, this is my little token, please help me convey. We should all try our best to help those in need. Mark thanked his boss for his kindness and brought the burger to the old man. Just then the old lady reached into her pocket, a note dropping out. Mark picked up the note which had the old man’s home address and the phone number of the old man’s family. After reading the note, Mark was overwhelmed with emotion, thinking that now the old man could be reunited with his family. After that, Mark made a phone call, and a short time later, the old man’s family came to pick him up and expressed their gratitude. Mark told the family that every kind person in this situation will lend a helping hand. I hope all you have to do is pay it forward. The old man’s family agreed with Mark and promised to pass on the kindness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在经过公园的路上看到一名老人跌倒后主动去帮忙救助，并最终通过一张小纸条帮助老人找到家属的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“环顾四周，马克看到比利汉堡店就在附近。”可知，第一段可描写马克进入汉堡店以后发生的事情。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在这时，老太太把手伸进口袋，一张纸条掉了出来。”可知，第二段可描写纸条上的内容，以及事情最后的结果。 2.续写线索：见跌倒——去帮助——买汉堡——寻家人——表感谢——有感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走进：walk into/step into ②挑选出：pick out/single out ③尽力：try one's best/do one's best 情绪类 ①迷惑的：puzzled/confused ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Seeing the large quantity of expensive bread, the cashier asked puzzled, “Are these hamburgers for you to eat?” (运用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】Mark picked up the note which had the old man’s home address and the phone number of the old man’s family.(运用了which引导的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
