Here’s a look at some of the best books on motivation. Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff ... and It’s All Small Stuff by Richard Carlson Learn how to turn problems into opportunities and stay calm in stressful situations with this handy guide focused on helping readers find happiness and peace of mind. Discover how to master your thoughts and fully live in the moment to appreciate what you have and get the most out of life. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey Highlighting the habits that distinguish those people who deal particularly well with the world from everyone else, this popular motivation book explains how you can become a better person by adopting the attitude of the highly effective and aligning (使……一致) your life with universal principles. How to Win Friends &Influence People by Dale Carnegie A favorite presenting basic rules for how to make a good first impression and effortlessly win people over this bestselling motivational book offers timeless advice backed by engaging anecdotes (轶事).

B Where do you expect to see graffiti (涂鸦)? Probably not in a museum. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, in the south-west of England, was the kind of place you went to see classical statues and stuffed animals in cases until the arrivals of the ‘Banksy Versus the Bristol Museum’ exhibition in 2009. The exhibition hosted more than 100 works by Banksy, one of the world’s most famous graffiti artists. Banksy is a man of mystery (神秘). He hardly ever gives interviews and likes to be anonymous (匿名的). Nobody knows much about his life or his background but many people believe that his real name is either Robin Cunningham, Robert Banks or Robin Banks and that he was born in 1973 near Bristol. Banksy’s questioned ‘street art’ includes paintings on live sheep and cows and graffiti on the huge wall put up to divide two areas. Brand Pitt spent over 82 million on a Bansky original. Banksy designed an album cover for the Britpop group Blur in 2003 but he has refused requests to do adverts for Nike. A year after the Bristol exhibition, Banksy made a film called Exit Through the Gift Shop. The film tells the story of a French street artist in America. Exit Through the Gift Shop received many positive reviews. Nobody knows if it was about a real artist or an invented character from Banksy’s imagination. Bristol isn’t the only place in Britain to welcome graffiti. The DPM Park in Dundee, Scotland has the longest legal graffiti wall (almost 110m long) in the UK. Anyone can paint on the council-owned wall any time they like. Mike Crilley, the graffiti wall project organiser, promotes the positive side of graffiti and runs workshops for local children. Is everyone doing graffiti? Can we do graffiti where we want these days? Not exactly. It’s illegal to paint on somebody else’s possessions, so make sure you find a legal graffiti wall like the one in Dundee if you want to have a go. 24. Why is Banksy a man of mystery? A. His works are mainly set in Bristol. B. His works are not universally recognized. C. He’s likely to use a penname in his works D. He comes from an area unfamilar to others. 25. What can be inferred about Exit Through the Gift Shop? A. It was produced in the year 2010. B. It was based on Banksy’s true story. C. It was directed and starred by Banksy. D. It was filmed for the Bristol exhibition. 26. Where can you do graffiti according to the author? A. On any wall in the UK. B. On somebody’s outer wall. C. In Mike Crilley’s workshops. D. In any nation-owned parks. 27. What does the passage mainly tell about? A. Different opinions on graffiti. B. Britain’s famous graffiti artist. C. Banksy’s most successful graffiti. D. Graffiti in major cities in the world. C Going to the gym can take time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely tiresome. Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps (组和次). In order to see any significant change from any exercise, it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, fora minimum of three sets, for about three months. For some, there’s nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill (跑步机). But what if there were a way to relieve the tedium of exercise while still getting a good workout? Luckily for us there’s virtual reality. Many VR games are played while standing. In order to play properly, the player is forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs. After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it’s not surprising that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter. There are already a number of virtual reality games which, intentionally or not, result in their player ‘getting a good sweat on’ if played for enough time. For example, there’s a first person shooter which forces the player to sidestep, duck and other sport actions. That’s cardio (有氧运动). Or there’s a music game which forces players to shadowbox in order to hit the notes—that’s an upper-body workout. The potential for VR to help people get fit has been noticed by one company. They want to take the whole experience into the gym. They are making a resistance machine, designed to be used in combination with a VR headset. Players challenge a virtual opponent in a series of games, which results in a 30-minute full-body workout. However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out. So don’t hang up your gym shorts just yet. Although it’s early days, for those of us who struggle to keep passionate about exercise, anew solution could be coming. And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want—virtual or not. 28. In paragraph l, the author mainly conveys that going to the gym__________. A. cannot avoid being hurt B. is hard to hold on C. makes sense in a short time D. means three months of exercise 29. What does the underlined word “tedium” in paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. Boredom. B. Tiredness. C. Expense. D. Inconvenience. 30. What can be concluded about the 30-minute VR full-body workout? A. Several security problems have been solved. B. The relevant equipment has complex designs. C. It has turned out to be very effective and popular. D. It may be unavailable due to some disadvantages. 31. What’s the author’s attitude towards virtual exercise in the future? A. Indifferent. B. Positive. C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful. D All three of my children were subject-matter experts before they even left primary school. My eldest son memorized every statistic on every football trading card he got his hands on. His brother knew hundreds of car makes and models by heart. And I’m sure that my daughter — a huge One Direction fan — remembered more facts about the band than they did! The experience of becoming an expert can bring long-term benefits for learning — and it’s never too late. “Having a specialist subject helps you learn anything,” says our memory expert, Jonathan Hancock, “There are good reasons for all of us to do a spot of specialist learning.” It schools our observation: a vital first step to remembering. Children are particularly good at seeing slight differences — like my younger son and his cars — then using them to organize information and inspire recall. But focused learning like this can push anyone to start noticing key details — ready to remember them. It gives us a mental framework (框架), to which we can attach unrelated ideas. Even when his trading-card period was over, my son often linked new numbers with stored-away sports statistics. Your own area of interest might help you by suggesting soundalike words for people’s names, or letting you “map” travel directions. It gets us learning in a variety of ways, often with the help of all our senses. My daughter’s pop knowledge was a rich mix of music, dances and colourful costumes, with precise facts. Burying yourself in a subject boosts your brain to work at its best. It restores our confidence to remember. We get to see what a difference it makes to be interested in something, to build up information in layers (层次), and to keep refreshing, testing and showing off what we know. It can give all our learning a boost. Why not pick a topic that interests you, find some books, take a course, join a club... and enjoy becoming at least an entry-level expert? Even a short spell of specialist study can reawaken learning skills that used to feel like child’s play. 32. What do the author’s children have in common? A. Having a variety of hobbies. B. Dreaming of being a top-class expert. C. Learning school subjects well. D. Showing exceptional talent in their areas. 33. Which probably belongs to a mental framework? A. Recognizing a pair of twins. B. Lecturing at an opening ceremony. C. Learning English by watching a film. D. Planning a tour route in a strange city. 34. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To advocate. B. To confirm. C. To evaluate. D. To explain. 35. What can be the most suitable title for the text? A. Raise Children’s Memory B. Remember Like an Expert C. Reform Learning Methods D. Reawaken Learning Skills 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Being a plastic-free gardener is an important step for having an eco-conscious garden.

Her job was to look after the fire-fighting equipment and fire alarms of this remote outpost. But on her days off, Elaine loved to go skiing and explore the ice and caves beyond the station. With winter coming, she’d be heading home soon. But before she left there was one more thing Elaine wanted to do. She was determined to see a penguin (企鹅) — up close. She’d heard interesting tales from the biologists, about how penguins played and took care of one another, how they were curious and often approached people. She had spotted a few, but only from far away. But that night after dinner, someone said there was a lone penguin on the ice on the far side of the station. Elaine rushed out, hoping to get a closer look. Now she was filled with excitement.... and cold. The day had been sunny and warm (for Antarctica, meaning around 20°F or-6℃, still below freezing). But a sudden storm could drop the temperature by 50°in just a few minutes. The glacier’s (冰川) huge pressure created crevasses (冰裂缝) — deep blue holes in the ice beneath the snowy surface, If someone dropped into the crevasse, nobody would ever find him. A frosty wind blew, and she reached up to cover her bare ear. Oh no, where was her hat? Elaine had left her backpack — with her warm coal, hat, and emergency radio — back at MeMurdo! Normally, she carried that orange pack everywhere. But hearing about the penguin, she’d rushed out without her backpack and she was out on the ice alone. Maybe the cold had slowed down her brain, but Elaine didn’t consider the danger. All she could think of was the penguin. Watching the penguin coming closer, she spied a flash of yellow. It was an emperor penguin! Elaine followed the bird farther out on the ice, away from the base. 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。 Soon the penguin stood right in front of her. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Suddenly, a strong wind knocked her off. She was lying on a thin skin of ice above a deep hole. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 洛平许济2023—2024学年高三第四次质量检测 英语试卷 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 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，将答题卡交回。 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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Who did Michele expect to attend the award ceremony?

Probably not in a museum. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, in the south-west of England, was the kind of place you went to see classical statues and stuffed animals in cases until the arrivals of the ‘Banksy Versus the Bristol Museum’ exhibition in 2009. The exhibition hosted more than 100 works by Banksy, one of the world’s most famous graffiti artists. Banksy is a man of mystery (神秘). He hardly ever gives interviews and likes to be anonymous (匿名的). Nobody knows much about his life or his background but many people believe that his real name is either Robin Cunningham, Robert Banks or Robin Banks and that he was born in 1973 near Bristol. Banksy’s questioned ‘street art’ includes paintings on live sheep and cows and graffiti on the huge wall put up to divide two areas. Brand Pitt spent over 82 million on a Bansky original. Banksy designed an album cover for the Britpop group Blur in 2003 but he has refused requests to do adverts for Nike. A year after the Bristol exhibition, Banksy made a film called Exit Through the Gift Shop. The film tells the story of a French street artist in America. Exit Through the Gift Shop received many positive reviews. Nobody knows if it was about a real artist or an invented character from Banksy’s imagination. Bristol isn’t the only place in Britain to welcome graffiti. The DPM Park in Dundee, Scotland has the longest legal graffiti wall (almost 110m long) in the UK. Anyone can paint on the council-owned wall any time they like. Mike Crilley, the graffiti wall project organiser, promotes the positive side of graffiti and runs workshops for local children. Is everyone doing graffiti? Can we do graffiti where we want these days? Not exactly. It’s illegal to paint on somebody else’s possessions, so make sure you find a legal graffiti wall like the one in Dundee if you want to have a go. 24. Why is Banksy a man of mystery? A His works are mainly set in Bristol. B. His works are not universally recognized. C. He’s likely to use a penname in his works D. He comes from an area unfamilar to others. 25. What can be inferred about Exit Through the Gift Shop? A. It was produced in the year 2010. B. It was based on Banksy’s true story. C. It was directed and starred by Banksy. D. It was filmed for the Bristol exhibition. 26. Where can you do graffiti according to the author? A. On any wall in the UK. B. On somebody’s outer wall. C. In Mike Crilley’s workshops. D. In any nation-owned parks. 27. What does the passage mainly tell about? A. Different opinions on graffiti. B. Britain’s famous graffiti artist. C. Banksy’s most successful graffiti. D. Graffiti in major cities in the world. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国布里斯托尔博物馆举办的世界著名涂鸦艺术家班克斯的展览，探讨了班克斯神秘的身份和他的街头艺术作品。同时文章还提到了英国其他地方对涂鸦艺术的接纳，如苏格兰邓迪市的合法涂鸦墙，并强调了涂鸦应在合法的场所进行。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Banksy is a man of mystery (神秘). He hardly ever gives interviews and likes to be anonymous (匿名的).”（班克斯是一个神秘的人。他很少接受采访，喜欢匿名。）可推知，班克斯是一个神秘的人，因为他很可能在作品中使用笔名。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, in the south-west of England, was the kind of place you went to see classical statues and stuffed animals in cases until the arrivals of the ‘Banksy Versus the Bristol Museum’ exhibition in 2009.”（ 布里斯托尔博物馆和艺术画廊位于英格兰西南部，在2009年“班克斯与布里斯托尔博物馆”展览到来之前，是你去看古典雕像和填充动物标本的地方。）以及第三段中“A year after the Bristol exhibition, Banksy made a film called Exit Through the Gift Shop.”（在布里斯托尔展览一年后，班克斯制作了一部名为《Exit Through the Gift Shop》的电影。）可推知，《Exit Through the Gift Shop》这部电影是2010年拍摄的。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Mike Crilley, the graffiti wall project organiser, promotes the positive side of graffiti and runs workshops for local children.”（涂鸦墙项目组织者Mike Crilley，他推广涂鸦的积极之处，并为当地的孩子们开设工作坊。）可推知，你可以在Mike Crilley的工作坊里做涂鸦。故选C项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Where do you expect to see graffiti (涂鸦)? Probably not in a museum. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, in the south-west of England, was the kind of place you went to see classical statues and stuffed animals in cases until the arrivals of the ‘Banksy Versus the Bristol Museum’ exhibition in 2009. The exhibition hosted more than 100 works by Banksy, one of the world’s most famous graffiti artists.”（你想在哪里看到涂鸦?可能不是在博物馆里。布里斯托尔博物馆和艺术画廊位于英格兰西南部，在2009年“班克斯与布里斯托尔博物馆”展览到来之前，是你去看古典雕像和填充动物标本的地方。这次展览展出了世界上最著名的涂鸦艺术家之一——班克斯的100多件作品。）以及全文内容可知，这篇文章主要讲的是英国布里斯托尔博物馆举办的世界著名涂鸦艺术家班克斯的展览，探讨了班克斯神秘的身份和他的街头艺术作品。故选B项。 C Going to the gym can take time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely tiresome. Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps (组和次). In order to see any significant change from any exercise, it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, fora minimum of three sets, for about three months. For some, there’s nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill (跑步机). But what if there were a way to relieve the tedium of exercise while still getting a good workout? Luckily for us, there’s virtual reality. Many VR games are played while standing. In order to play properly, the player is forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs. After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it’s not surprising that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter. There are already a number of virtual reality games which, intentionally or not, result in their player ‘getting a good sweat on’ if played for enough time. For example, there’s a first person shooter which forces the player to sidestep, duck and other sport actions. That’s cardio (有氧运动). Or there’s a music game which forces players to shadowbox in order to hit the notes—that’s an upper-body workout. The potential for VR to help people get fit has been noticed by one company. They want to take the whole experience into the gym. They are making a resistance machine, designed to be used in combination with a VR headset. Players challenge a virtual opponent in a series of games, which results in a 30-minute full-body workout. However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out. So don’t hang up your gym shorts just yet. Although it’s early days, for those of us who struggle to keep passionate about exercise, anew solution could be coming. And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want—virtual or not. 28. In paragraph l, the author mainly conveys that going to the gym__________. A. cannot avoid being hurt B. is hard to hold on C. makes sense in a short time D. means three months of exercise 29. What does the underlined word “tedium” in paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. Boredom. B. Tiredness. C. Expense. D. Inconvenience. 30. What can be concluded about the 30-minute VR full-body workout? A. Several security problems have been solved. B. The relevant equipment has complex designs. C. It has turned out to be very effective and popular. D. It may be unavailable due to some disadvantages. 31. What’s the author’s attitude towards virtual exercise in the future? A. Indifferent. B. Positive. C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了去健身房锻炼的枯燥和劳累，提出了虚拟现实VR游戏作为一种新颖的锻炼方式，可以边玩边健身。通过站立操作和身体活动，一些VR游戏能让玩家在不知觉中提升体能。一家公司看到了VR的健身潜力，正在开发结合VR头盔的健身器材。虽然目前设备成本高且存在安全隐患，但对于那些难以保持锻炼热情的人来说，VR健身提供了一个新的选择。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Going to the gym can take time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely tiresome. Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps (组和次). In order to see any significant change from any exercise, it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, fora minimum of three sets, for about three months. For some, there’s nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill (跑步机).”（去健身房需要时间和精力，经常会受伤，而且会非常令人厌倦。大多数与重量相关的练习都是一组一次的组合。为了看到任何锻炼的显著变化，它可能需要重复六到八次，至少三组，持续大约三个月。对一些人来说，没有什么比在跑步机上无休止地跑步更无聊的了。）可推知，在第一段中，作者主要表达了去健身房很难坚持下去。故选B项。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“For some, there’s nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill .”（对一些人来说，没有什么比在跑步机上无休止地跑步更无聊的了。）提到健身房跑步的无聊，以及划线单词句中“…while still getting a good workout?”（同时又能得到良好的锻炼呢？）和下一句“Luckily for us, there’s virtual reality.”（幸运的是，我们有了虚拟现实。）由此可知，此处为有一种方法可以缓解运动的枯燥感。故可此处划线单词tedium为“枯燥，无聊”的意思，结合选项A项Boredom“无聊”意思一致。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Players challenge a virtual opponent in a series of games, which results in a 30-minute full-body workout. However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out. So don’t hang up your gym shorts just yet.”（玩家在一系列游戏中挑战一个虚拟对手，结果是30分钟的全身锻炼。然而，设备成本昂贵，还有安全问题需要解决。所以先别挂起你的运动短裤。）可推知，由于某些不利因素，30分钟的VR全身锻炼可能无法进行。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Although it’s early days, for those of us who struggle to keep passionate about exercise, anew solution could be coming. And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want—virtual or not.”（虽然现在还为时尚早，但对于我们这些努力保持锻炼热情的人来说，新的解决方案可能会出现。一个人可以同时锻炼和娱乐的世界可能是许多人想要的——不管是不是虚拟的。）可推知，作者对未来虚拟锻炼的态度是积极乐观的。故选B项。 D All three of my children were subject-matter experts before they even left primary school. My eldest son memorized every statistic on every football trading card he got his hands on. His brother knew hundreds of car makes and models by heart. And I’m sure that my daughter — a huge One Direction fan — remembered more facts about the band than they did! The experience of becoming an expert can bring long-term benefits for learning — and it’s never too late. “Having a specialist subject helps you learn anything,” says our memory expert, Jonathan Hancock, “There are good reasons for all of us to do a spot of specialist learning.” It schools our observation: a vital first step to remembering. Children are particularly good at seeing slight differences — like my younger son and his cars — then using them to organize information and inspire recall. But focused learning like this can push anyone to start noticing key details — ready to remember them. It gives us a mental framework (框架), to which we can attach unrelated ideas. Even when his trading-card period was over, my son often linked new numbers with stored-away sports statistics. Your own area of interest might help you by suggesting soundalike words for people’s names, or letting you “map” travel directions. It gets us learning in a variety of ways, often with the help of all our senses. My daughter’s pop knowledge was a rich mix of music, dances and colourful costumes, with precise facts. Burying yourself in a subject boosts your brain to work at its best. It restores our confidence to remember. We get to see what a difference it makes to be interested in something, to build up information in layers (层次), and to keep refreshing, testing and showing off what we know. It can give all our learning a boost. Why not pick a topic that interests you, find some books, take a course, join a club... and enjoy becoming at least an entry-level expert? Even a short spell of specialist study can reawaken learning skills that used to feel like child’s play. 32. What do the author’s children have in common? A. Having a variety of hobbies. B. Dreaming of being a top-class expert. C. Learning school subjects well. D. Showing exceptional talent in their areas. 33. Which probably belongs to a mental framework? A. Recognizing a pair of twins. B. Lecturing at an opening ceremony. C. Learning English by watching a film. D. Planning a tour route in a strange city. 34. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To advocate. B. To confirm. C. To evaluate. D. To explain. 35. What can be the most suitable title for the text? A. Raise Children’s Memory B. Remember Like an Expert C. Reform Learning Methods D. Reawaken Learning Skills 【答案】32. D 33. D 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要讲述了作者三个孩子在小的时候就对某一领域有着深入的了解和专业知识。文章通过实例阐述了成为某个领域的专家对学习带来的长期益处，包括培养观察力，提供心理框架，多样化的学习方式以及增强自信心等。最后鼓励读者选择自己感兴趣的领域进行深入学习，即使是短期的专业学习也能激发出曾经像孩子玩耍的学习技能。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“All three of my children were subject-matter experts before they even left primary school. My eldest son memorized every statistic on every football trading card he got his hands on. His brother knew hundreds of car makes and models by heart. And I’m sure that my daughter—a huge One Direction fan—remembered more facts about the band than they did! The experience of becoming an expert can bring long-term benefits for learning—and it’s never too late.”（我的三个孩子在小学毕业之前就已经是学科专家了。我的大儿子记住了他拿到的每一张足球交易卡上的每一个数据。他哥哥对数百种汽车的品牌和型号都熟记于心。我敢肯定，我的女儿——一个One Direction乐队的超级粉丝——记得更多关于乐队的事情！成为专家的经历可以为学习带来长期的好处，而且永远不会太晚。）可推知，作者的孩子都在各自的领域表现出非凡的天赋。故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It gives us a mental framework (框架), to which we can attach unrelated ideas. Even when his trading-card period was over, my son often linked new numbers with stored-away sports statistics. Your own area of interest might help you by suggesting soundalike words for people’s names, or letting you “map” travel directions.”（它给了我们一个心理框架，我们可以把不相关的想法附加到这个框架上。即使他的交易卡期结束了，我儿子也经常把新号码和储存的体育数据联系起来。你自己感兴趣的领域可能会对你有所帮助，比如为人们的名字提供发音相似的单词，或者让你“绘制”旅行路线。）可知，在一个陌生的城市规划旅游路线可能属于一个心理框架。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Why not pick a topic that interests you, find some books, take a course, join a club ... and enjoy becoming at least an entry-level expert? Even a short spell of specialist study can reawaken learning skills that used to feel like child’s play.”（为什么不选择一个你感兴趣的话题，找一些书，参加一个课程，加入一个俱乐部……享受成为至少一个入门级的专家？即使是短时间的专业学习也能重新唤醒过去感觉像孩子玩耍的学习技能。）可推知，最后一段的目的是表明作者提倡的做法。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“Why not pick a topic that interests you, find some books, take a course, join a club ... and enjoy becoming at least an entry-level expert? Even a short spell of specialist study can reawaken learning skills that used to feel like child’s play.”（为什么不选择一个你感兴趣的话题，找一些书，参加一个课程，加入一个俱乐部……享受成为至少一个入门级的专家？即使是短时间的专业学习也能重新唤醒过去感觉像孩子玩耍的学习技能。）可知，文章主要讲述了鼓励读者选择自己感兴趣的领域进行深入学习，即使是短期的专业学习也能激发出曾经像孩子玩耍般的学习技能。因此本文的最佳标题是“重新唤醒学习技能”。故选D项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Being a plastic-free gardener is an important step for having an eco-conscious garden.

Her job was to look after the fire-fighting equipment and fire alarms of this remote outpost. But on her days off, Elaine loved to go skiing and explore the ice and caves beyond the station. With winter coming, she’d be heading home soon. But before she left there was one more thing Elaine wanted to do. She was determined to see a penguin (企鹅) — up close. She’d heard interesting tales from the biologists, about how penguins played and took care of one another, how they were curious and often approached people. She had spotted a few, but only from far away. But that night after dinner, someone said there was a lone penguin on the ice on the far side of the station. Elaine rushed out, hoping to get a closer look. Now she was filled with excitement.... and cold. The day had been sunny and warm (for Antarctica, meaning around 20°F or-6℃, still below freezing). But a sudden storm could drop the temperature by 50°in just a few minutes. The glacier’s (冰川) huge pressure created crevasses (冰裂缝) — deep blue holes in the ice beneath the snowy surface, If someone dropped into the crevasse, nobody would ever find him. A frosty wind blew, and she reached up to cover her bare ear. Oh no, where was her hat? Elaine had left her backpack — with her warm coal, hat, and emergency radio — back at MeMurdo! Normally, she carried that orange pack everywhere. But hearing about the penguin, she’d rushed out without her backpack and she was out on the ice alone. Maybe the cold had slowed down her brain, but Elaine didn’t consider the danger. All she could think of was the penguin. Watching the penguin coming closer, she spied a flash of yellow. It was an emperor penguin! Elaine followed the bird farther out on the ice, away from the base. 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。 Soon the penguin stood right in front of her. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Suddenly, a strong wind knocked her off. She was lying on a thin skin of ice above a deep hole. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Soon the penguin stood right in front of her. Its stately figure was standing out against the backdrop of the icy landscape. Elaine’s heart skipped a beat as she admired its regal appearance. The emperor penguin tilted its head and peered at her with curious eyes, almost as if it were inviting her to come closer. Elaine slowly inched forward, feeling a sense of awe and joy wash over her. Suddenly, a strong wind knocked her off. She was lying on a thin skin of ice above a deep hole. Her heart was pounding in her chest. With a jolt of panic, she realized how perilous her situation was. She struggled to get up, but the thin ice gave way under her weight, sending her sliding towards the abyss. Just as she was about to lose her balance, she grasped onto a chunk of ice and managed to pull herself back onto the safer side. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公伊莱恩去看企鹅的时候遭遇了危险的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“很快，企鹅就站在了她的面前。”可知，第一段可描写伊莱恩近距离观察企鹅的过程以及她的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“突然，一阵大风把她刮倒了。她躺在一个深洞上面一层薄薄的冰层上。”可知，第二段可描写伊莱恩自救的过程。 2.续写线索：企鹅站在了她的面前——伊莱恩近距离观察企鹅——伊莱恩的感受——一阵大风把她刮倒了——躺在一层薄薄的冰层上——伊莱恩自救 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①欣赏：admired/appreciated ②意识到：realized/was aware of ③抓住：grasped/caught hold of 情绪类 ①快乐，喜悦：joy/delight/pleasure ②恐慌：panic/scare 【点睛】[高分句型1] Elaine slowly inched forward, feeling a sense of awe and joy wash over her.（运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] With a jolt of panic, she realized how perilous her situation was.（运用了连接副词how引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
