B We were a diverse group of people who took the bus every day that summer 33 years ago. During the early morning ride from the suburb, we sat with our collars (衣领) up to our ears, lost in our own thoughts and the dead silence swept over the whole bus. One of the passengers was a small old man who took the bus to the centre for senior citizens every morning. He walked with a stoop (驼背) , boarded the bus with some difficulty and sat down alone behind the driver. No one ever paid very much attention to him. Then one July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled looking around the bus before he sat down. The driver nodded politely. The rest of us were silent. The next day, the old man boarded the bus energetically, smiled and said in a loud voice: “And a very good morning to you all!” Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured “Good morning” in reply. The following weeks we were more alert. Our friend was now dressed in a nice old suit and a wide out-of-date tie. The thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other. The summer went by, and autumn was closing in, when one morning the senior wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or — hopefully — on holiday somewhere. The next Monday the old man was waiting at the stop. With the help of the regular passengers, he easily boarded the bus and yelled out “good morning” to everyone around him, wearing a big smile on his face. Everyone burst out laughing, feeling what the simple words brought on the bus. 24. What can be inferred from the first paragraph? A. The passengers were sleepy during the ride. B. The passengers were indifferent to each other. C. The passengers talked in a low voice with each other. D. The passengers took the bus to the centre for senior citizens. 25. How did the people on the bus react to the old man? A. The driver didn’t respond to his first “good morning”. B. They came to care about the old man as time went by. C. They noticed the old man the first time he boarded the bus. D. They ignored the constant “good morning” from the old man at first. 26. Which of the following can best describe the old man according to the text? A. Caring but awkward. B. Easy-going and talkative. C. Warm and friendly. D. Considerate and optimistic. 27. What can be the best title of the text? A. The Diverse Passengers on a Bus B. The Magic of “Good Morning” C. The Amazing Friendship on a Bus D. An Impressive Senior with a Stoop C A moose, a deer and a fox walk into a tunnel. It might sound like the set up for a joke, but it’s a scene that wildlife ecologist Patricia Cramer captured while studying how animals use wildlife crossings. Wildlife-vehicle collisions (碰撞) kill millions of animals each year, cause massive property damage and result in thousands of human injuries and hundreds of deaths. And as climate change causes more animals to seek suitable habitat, wildlife crossings can help them adapt. “Crossing structures are really important to help wildlife move about,” Cramer said. “We’ve put roads and vehicles through their homes.” Cramer has been researching how wildlife and highways interact for nearly 20 years, and she is the founder and director of the Wildlife Connectivity Institute, which works with state and local governments to site and design wildlife crossings. Camera traps and other monitoring techniques help her to better understand how the structures are used by different species—and there are many. Her list begins with small animals like salamanders, frogs and turtles. Many of these move about in the spring to breed, and roads take a terrible toll. Research by Cramer and others shows that within just a few years, a wildlife crossing structure can reduce collisions along the nearby stretch of highway by 75 to 90 percent. That has helped Cramer make an economic argument for building structures. “They are a cost-effective way of addressing the problem from the human side,” she said, pointing out the human toll from collisions and vehicle damage. Last year, the U. S. Department of Transportation announced a Wildlife Crossings Pilot Program with $350 million in funding available to states and tribal governments. Cramer and more than a dozen other wildlife and highway experts last year issued a statement urging officials to put that money toward developing “climate-informed” wildlife crossings. 28. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. make a comparison B. present an argument C. introduce the topic D. propose a definition 29. What is the role of Patricia Cramer's Wildlife Connectivity Institute? A. Building wildlife crossing structures. B. Collecting funds for wildlife conservation. C. Monitoring wildlife interactions with highways. D. Researching the impact of climate change on wildlife. 30. What function is expected of the wildlife crossings? A. To reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions. B. To study the behavior of wild animals. C. To provide a safe place for animals to play. D. To create natural habitats for different species. 31. What is Cramer's attitude toward wildlife crossings? A. Unsatisfied. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral. D Roughly 42% of Americans are nearsighted today, compared to 25% in 1971. The World Health Organization predicts that about half of the world’s population will have myopia, or nearsightedness, by 2050. It’s clear that our vision is becoming increasingly blurry, but researchers are only now beginning to understand why. Generally a childhood phenomenon, myopia happens when the eyeball grows too long from front to back. Eyes have a “stop signal” so that they grow proportionally (成比例地) with the head, explains Gregory Schwartz, an associate professor at Northwestern University. However, that signal can be interrupted by genetic and environmental factors, which leads to our eyeballs growing a bit too much, making them too big for the optics (光学) . The mismatch between the eyeballs and the optics leads to far-off objects looking out of focus. While our first response is to blame the increased use of screens, experts believe the real reason is not that, exactly, but it’s related: namely less time spent outdoors. Natural light is essential for healthy eye development, says Schwartz. Exposure (接触) to natural light promotes the release of dopamine, which helps regulate normal growth and development of the eyeball. Indoor lighting doesn’t do the trick. Ideally, kids should get at least two hours of natural light a day. That said, our increased use of screens is a problem. Most screens are high contrast (对比) — like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, says Schwartz. It’s still a theory, but some scientists think that the contrast of reading a book or looking at a bright screen in a darkroom might cause more eye growth in children. Researchers are working on ways to slowdown rising myopia rates. You can also reduce eye tiredness by making a few simple lifestyle changes, such as ensuring that you are reading or working in good light (soft background light, plus a task light) , choosing non-glare screens for your computer or TV and taking frequent breaks. 32. What does the underlined word “blurry” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Bright. B. Normal. C. Unclear. D. Important. 33. What can we learn about “stop signal” from the second paragraph? A. It reduces eye tiredness. B. It leads to more eye growth. C. It helps the development of the head. D. It controls the overgrowth of the eyeballs. 34. What is the main cause of myopia according to the text? A. High contrast of light. B. Increased use of screens. C. Overly outdoor activities. D. Lack of natural light exposure. 35. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Tips to protect eyesight. B. Reasons for eye tiredness. C. Features of background light. D. Problems we are faced with. 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。 Challenging, fun and engaging hobbies have the power to make us happier and healthier. ___36___.

I left my brother in the living room and went to get something to drink. As I was pouring some orange juice, I heard something break. First, I looked in to see if my father had woken up, and he hadn’t. Then I quickly ran to see what had happened. When I went into the living room, I was shocked. My brother had broken my mother’s favourite vase. “What did you do?” I asked. “I broke it!” My brother answered. “It was an accident!” Knowing that he was shocked and frightened, and not wanting him to get in trouble, I did what any sister would do. I tried to help him. I quickly ran and got some glue. I didn’t know what time my mother was going to be back or when my father was going to wake up, so I tried to hurry. I frantically (手忙脚乱地) gathered up all of the broken pieces and started to glue them together. It took me an hour but I finally fixed the vase. Then came the real disaster. “Oh my God! Oh my God!” I shouted. I had fixed the vase, but I had accidentally glued my hair to it! While my brother looked at me like I was some kind of fool, I carried the vase with my hair attached to it into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror. “My beautiful hair!” I cried. Realizing that there was no way to pull my hair from the vase, I grabbed a pair of scissors. With every single strand (缕) of hair that I cut, I cried again. My hair was ruined and the vase looked as if a wig was attached to it! As I was leaving the bathroom with my ridiculous new hairdo, I heard a key turn in the front door. 注意： 1. 续写总词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My mother was back! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My brother, sensing my tension, stepped forward. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 秘密★启用前【考试时间: 2024年6月25 日14: 30—16: 30】 2023～2024学年度下期高2023 级期末联考 英 语 考试时间120分钟，满分150分 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必在答题卡上将自己的姓名、座位号和准考证号用0. 5毫米黑色签字笔填写清楚，考生考试条形码由监考老师粘贴在答题卡上的“贴条形码区”。 2. 选择题使用2B铅笔填涂在答题卡上对应题目标号的位置上，如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后再填涂其它答案；非选择题用0. 5 毫米黑色签字笔在答题卡的对应区域内作答，超出答题区域答题的答案无效；在草稿纸上、试卷上答题无效。 3. 考试结束后由监考老师将答题卡收回。 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。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题答案】 【答案】C 【2题答案】 【答案】A 【3题答案】 【答案】B 【4题答案】 【答案】C 【5题答案】 【答案】B 第二节（共15小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分22. 5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.

The issue of high school students staying up late to study has become a common concern. Nowadays, with the increasing academic pressure, many students find themselves staying up late to complete their assignments and prepare for exams. While it is important for students to be dedicated to their studies, sacrificing sleep is not the solution. Adequate rest is crucial for maintaining good physical and mental health, as well as for effective learning. Staying up late may lead to lack of concentration and ultimately, poorer academic performance. My suggestion is that high school students should prioritize time management and develop effective study habits. Additionally, schools and parents should also play a role in promoting a balance d approach to studying, emphasizing the importance of both academic achievement and well-being. 第二节 读后续写（满分25分） 【67题答案】 【答案】One possible version: My mother was back! She walked in, her face bright with the excitement of her shopping trip. At the sight of the broken vase and my strange hairdo, her expression changed. “What happened to your hair? ” she asked with a mix of confusion and concern in her voice. I panicked. “I...I...” I stammered, trying to think of a reasonable explanation. But the truth was too ridiculous to believe. I could only stare at her, my eyes welling up with tears. My brother, sensing my tension, stepped forward. “I broke Mom’s vase,” he said, his voice small but firm. “And sister tried to fix it, but she got her hair stuck. She had to cut it off.” Hearing this, my mother wore a relief smile, face softening. She looked at the vase, then at me, my hair sticking out in all directions. “It’s okay,” she said, smiling. “Vases can be replaced, but your honesty and your sister’s willingness to help are more valuable than anything.” She hugged us both tightly. “Now let’s see if we can find a way to fix your hair,” she added with a laugh. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
