Rounding out all that unspoiled nature are ancient castles, historic villages, and pubs alive with traditional music. Here’s the best way to experience this colorful corner of Europe. Rocky coves The southwest’s rocky coves are rich with seaweed, revealing a little-known piece of Irish history. “In the past people couldn’t eat meat so they would go down around these shores and get laver, or sleabhac, as it’s high in protein,” says Kerryann O’Farrell of Atlantic Irish Seaweed, whose guides lead educational sea vegetable walks at Derrynane Harbour. Cape Clear Island Located eight miles off the southern coast, Cape Clear Island (Oileán Chleire) is one of Irish-speaking Gaeltacht areas, which can be found in seven counties and on some islands. On Cape, the former girls school now houses the Heritage Centre with exhibits on the island’s maritime history and culture. Don’t miss the goat milk ice cream at local favorite Cléire Goats. The River Corrib While Shop Street and Eyre Square draw the crowds, the Western neighborhood across the River Corrib is the soul of the city. Soak up the bohemian vibe at places like Bell Book and Candle, a treasure trove for new and second-hand books; the monthly Flea Style Market inside the Galway Arts Centre; and the Crane Bar, which features some of the city’s best “trad” fiddle and bodhrán players. Great Lighthouses of Ireland Great Lighthouses of Ireland offers a guide to noteworthy beacons around the country. One of the most remote, St. John’s Point Lighthouse rises at the end of a narrow peninsula in County Donegal, looking out to Donegal Bay and County Sligo. Stay overnight in Clipper or Schooner, the former lighthouse keepers’ residences, and experience the solitude of keeping watch. Naturally, there’s no Wi-Fi, so unwind and read a book beside the fire, or explore the headland at sunrise. 1. What can’t you do in Cape Clear Island? A. Appreciate local language. B. Try the goat milk ice cream. C. Admire the island’s maritime history. D. Enjoy educational sea vegetable walks. 2. Which would be the best place for someone in need of an undisturbed place? A. Rocky coves. B. Cape Clear Island. C. The River Corrib. D. Great Lighthouses of Ireland. 3. The passage is most likely taken from ________. A. a news report B. an advertisement C. a travel brochure D. an encyclopedia B There’s an old African proverb that states, “When you leave your shoes at the doorstep, you leave your troubles behind.” A group of environmental chemists who study what kinds of contaminants people are exposed to in their own homes claim: wearing your outside shoes inside won’t just mess up your carpet; it is, in fact, scientifically wrong. Shoes worn outside can be media for all kinds of dirt and microbes. According to the experts, about one-third of the matter building up inside your home comes from outside, much of it being tracked in on the soles of our shoes. But not all dirt is bad dirt. Some household germs can actually be useful in helping build up a child’s immune system, for example. But the real issue is that some of the disease-causing organisms found on our shoes and floors are drug-resistant, causing illnesses that are difficult to treat. “Cancer-causing toxins can be found on these shoes,” scientists say, “so it is best to leave your filth outside the door.” Every day we carry much dirt with us on the soles of our shoes-mud. For many households, the pandemic has greatly reduced the number of places we go to. But even at that, all it takes is one walk down the street or a few minutes at the park to make you bring something nasty back home. It’s important to note that not wearing shoes inside is more than just a hygiene thing. In many cultures around the world, leaving your shoes at the door is a sign of respect, a nod to superstition and it may even be in service of good health. Reflexologists (反射治疗师) say that walking around barefoot can help boost your circulation, improve your sleep quality and stimulate the reflexes on the soles of your feet, reducing inflammation, pain and tension. 4. What can we learn about dirt? A. All the dirt in the house comes from dirty shoes. B. The dirt can help build up a child’s immune system. C. The dirt brought back by shoes is very harmful to adults. D. About a third of the dirt produced in the home comes from the outside. 5. What’s the author’s attitude towards leaving shoes at the doorstep? A. Supportive B. Critical C. Indifferent D. Neutral 6. There are many benefits of not wearing shoes indoors except ________. A. showing respect B. stimulating reflection C. avoiding messing up carpet D. reducing the amount of dirt 7 What’s the best title of the text? A. Walking barefoot or not B. Getting rid of your home dirt C. Learning from African proverbs D. Leaving shoes at the doorstep for health reasons C “ChatGPT is a computer program that can understand and respond to text like a person. It’s like havinga conversation with a very smart robot,” says ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence text generator. In November of 2022, the computer program ChatGPT generated significant public interest across the globe for its broad applications and commercial value. This AI model demonstrated its ability to perform a variety of tasks, from generating book summaries, recommendations, and personal research assistance, to drafting college SOPs, essays, and emails. According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering. With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. The use of ChatGPT for homework assignments is a growing concern for professors across the globe. The University, on the other hand, has not addressed or made a statement on this matter. There are potential academic violations for homework and exams. One such case is Professor of Political Science and Business David Primo. He entered one of his previous test questions into ChatGPT, and ChatGPT got it exactly correct. Despite concerns, Primo understands that the issue of academic honesty is a concern that has existed and will exist forever. He talks about this as well as the many other negative uses of the internet, saying “The internet makes it easy to spread hateful messages and pirate music, but do you want to go back to a time where you couldn’t bank online, or listen to music online?” Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo. 8. What makes the program a great breakthrough? A. Its ability to perform various tasks. B. Its achievements in learning technology. C. Its wide application and commercial value. D. The combination of its concept and AI model. 9. What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean? A. dispute B. support C. disadvantage D. mistake 10. What might Primo agree with regarding the use of ChatGPT? A. It is a double-edged sword. B. It has little impact on academia. C. Its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. D. It should be prohibited for academic integrity. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. ChatGPT demonstrates its great strength. B. ChatGPT generates great argument. C. ChatGPT arouses significant public interest. D ChatGPT causes the potential academic violations. D Scientists have been researching the way to get employees motivated for many years. The related research builds the fundamental and comprehensive model for study. This is especially true when the business goal is to turn unmotivated teams into productive ones. But their researchers have limitations. It is like studying the movements of car without taking out the engine. Motivation is what drives people to succeed and plays a vital role in enhancing an organizational development. It is important to study the motivation of employees because it is related to the emotion and behavior of employees. Recent studies show there are three drives for motivation. The drive to acquire must be met to optimize achievement. Thus it requires that outstanding performance should be recognized and rewards provided to polish the career path. But sometimes a written letter of app reciation generates more motivation than a thousand-dollar check, which can serve as the invisible power to boost business engagement. Successful organizations and leaders not only need to focus on the optimization of physical reward but also on moving other levers within the organization that can drive motivation. The drive to comprehend motivates many employees to higher performance. For years, it has been known that setting stretch goals can greatly impact performance. Organizations need to ensure that the various job roles provide employees with simulation that challenges them or allow them to grow. Employees don’t want to do meaningless things or monotonous job. If the job didn’t provide them with personal meaning and fulfillment, they will leave the company. The drive to defend is often the hardest lever to pull. This drive displays itself as a quest to create and promote justice, fairness, and the ability to express ourselves freely. The organizational lever for this basic human motivator is resource distribution. This drive is also me t through an employee feeling connected to a company. If their companies are merged with another, they will show worries. The key to successfully motivating employees is to meet all drives. Each of these drives is important if we are to understand employee motivation. 12. What is true about the study of motivation? A. The study is too theoretical and lacks practice. B. Its main goal is to increase the profit of organizations. C. The theory of motivating employees is set up in recent years. D. It is important for managers as it is related to the salary of employees. 13. What is against “drives of motivation”? A. The company distributes its employees reasonably. B. The company sets profound goals for its employees. C. Employees gain a sense of personal belonging in the company. D. The companies provide employees with spiritual encouragement. 14. How does “the drive to comprehend” help employees perform better? A. It can help employees set higher goals. B. It can provide employees with repetitive tasks. C. It helps employees realize their own value to the company. D. It helps employees understand the development of their organizations. 15. What does the author intend to show in paragraph five? A. It is not difficult to meet the drive to defend. B. It is significant to merge with another company. C. It is very important to voice employees’ own opinions. D. It is the most difficult to distribute organizational resource. 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。 A Neurologist’s Tips to Protect Your Memory As we age, our memory declines. This is a fixed assumption for many people; however, according to neuroscientist Dr. Richard Restak, a neurologist and clinical professor, decline is not unavoidable. ___16___. Here are some of his tips for developing and maintaining a healthy memory. Pay more attention. Some memory declines are actually attention problems, not memory problems. For instance, if you’ve forgotten the name of someone you met at a cocktail party, it could be because you were talking with several people at the time. One way to pay attention when you learn new information is to visualize the word. ___17___. Play games. Dr. Restak’s “favorite working memory game” is 20 Questions — in which a group thinks of a person, place or object, and the other person, the questioner, asks 20 questions with a yes-or-no answer. To succeed, the questioner must hold all of the previous answers in memory in order to guess the correct answer. ___18___. “Maintaining information and moving it around in your mind.” Restak wrote. Read more novels. One early indicator of memory issues, according to Dr. Restak, is giving up on fiction. “People, when they begin to have memory difficulties, tend to switch to reading nonfiction.” Fiction requires active engagement with the text, starting at the beginning and working through to the end. ___19___. Storing everything on your phone means that “you don’t know it.” This can damage our own mental abilities. And the phone takes our focus away from the task at hand. Find regular everyday memory challenges. ___20___. Dr. Restak suggested composing a grocery list and memorizing it. When you get to the store, don’t automatically pull out your list (or your phone) — instead, pick up everything according to your memory. Once in a while, get in the car without turning on your GPS, and try to navigate through the streets from memory. A. Beware of technology B. Sort out things on devices C. The point is to engage your working memory D. However, we can prevent the memory decline E. Ultimately, “we are what we can remember,” he said F. Having a picture associated with the word can improve recall G.

Jenna was excited when Ms. Baroni announced Marti, Jenna’s best friend, would be taking lessons too. Everyone’s warm welcome made Marti blush, and Jenna walked over to comfort her. After warm-up exercises, Ms. Baroni divided everyone into color-belt groups. Even though Jenna was a yellow belt and a level above Marti, Ms. Baroni asked them to work together. Jenna nodded and demonstrated (展示) a front kick confidently. Marti copied it. Her kick was as high as Jenna’s shoulder. Then came a burst of cheers from Ms. Baroni behind. She spent the next five minutes showing Marti moves. Jenna threw herself against the wall staring at Marti copying everything Ms. Baroni did. The more Marti did, the more praise she earned from Ms. Baroni. What if Marti became better than her? What if Marti became Ms. Baroni’s favorite student? Jenna was practicing her form (招式) halfheartedly when she heard a scolding. “Watch your form!”Jenna turned and noticed Ms. Baroni looking directly at her. Nothing could have been worse. But afterwards, she heard Ms. Baroni’s encouraging words. “You’ve memorized your form perfectly, but your moves could be better. Try the side kick again.” However, the encouragement didn’t work. The moment the class was over, Jenna grabbed her bag and hurried outside. She had planned to wait for Marti, but now she preferred to be left alone. For the following weeks, Marti continued to impress their teacher with her skills. And as Marti turned into a star student, Jenna became less and less excited about taekwondo. One day, Marti told Jenna the good news that she was ready to test for her new belt with Ms. Baroni’s recognition. Jenna stopped in her tracks and said sourly. “It’s more challenging than you imagine.” Marti looked disappointed. “You don’t think I’m skillful enough to test yet?” Jenna felt her face flushed and denied. She didn’t like feeling jealous, but she couldn’t help it. She wasn’t ready for her next belt because she hadn’t been practicing every day. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A week later, at the belt testing, Jenna saw Marti warming up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Jenna thought, “I don’t practice that much in a week!” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 BCAAB 6—10 AACBB 11—15 CCACC 16—20 BBCAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023学年第二学期温州十校联合体期末联考 高二年级英语学科试题 考生须知： 1.本卷共10页满分150分，考试时间120分钟； 2.答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场号、座位号及准考证号并填涂相应数字。 3.所有答案必须写在答题纸上，写在试卷上无效； 4.考试结束后，只需上交答题纸。 选择题部分 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.

Naturally, there’s no Wi-Fi, so unwind and read a book beside the fire, or explore the headland at sunrise.”（在克利伯(Clipper)或斯库纳(Schooner)——前灯塔看守人的住所——过夜，体验守望的孤独。当然，这里没有Wi-Fi，所以你可以在火炉旁放松一下，读一本书，或者在日出时探索海岬。）可知，爱尔兰灯塔这个地方最适合那些需要安静，不被打扰的人。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Green fields and hills give Ireland its “Emerald Isle” nickname. Rounding out all that unspoiled nature are ancient castles, historic villages, and pubs alive with traditional music. Here’s the best way to experience this colorful corner of Europe.”（翠绿的田野和丘陵给了爱尔兰“翡翠岛”的绰号。古老的城堡、历史悠久的村庄和充满传统音乐的酒吧使所有未受破坏的自然环境更加完善。这里是体验欧洲这个多姿多彩的角落的最佳方式。）可知，文章主要讲的是爱尔兰几个绝佳的旅游胜地。由此可推知，这篇文章可能来自一本旅游手册。故选C项。 B There’s an old African proverb that states, “When you leave your shoes at the doorstep, you leave your troubles behind.” A group of environmental chemists who study what kinds of contaminants people are exposed to in their own homes claim: wearing your outside shoes inside won’t just mess up your carpet; it is, in fact, scientifically wrong. Shoes worn outside can be media for all kinds of dirt and microbes. According to the experts, about one-third of the matter building up inside your home comes from outside, much of it being tracked in on the soles of our shoes. But not all dirt is bad dirt. Some household germs can actually be useful in helping build up a child’s immune system, for example. But the real issue is that some of the disease-causing organisms found on our shoes and floors are drug-resistant, causing illnesses that are difficult to treat. “Cancer-causing toxins can be found on these shoes,” scientists say, “so it is best to leave your filth outside the door.” Every day we carry much dirt with us on the soles of our shoes-mud. For many households, the pandemic has greatly reduced the number of places we go to. But even at that, all it takes is one walk down the street or a few minutes at the park to make you bring something nasty back home. It’s important to note that not wearing shoes inside is more than just a hygiene thing. In many cultures around the world, leaving your shoes at the door is a sign of respect, a nod to superstition and it may even be in service of good health. Reflexologists (反射治疗师) say that walking around barefoot can help boost your circulation, improve your sleep quality and stimulate the reflexes on the soles of your feet, reducing inflammation, pain and tension. 4. What can we learn about dirt? A. All the dirt in the house comes from dirty shoes. B. The dirt can help build up a child’s immune system. C. The dirt brought back by shoes is very harmful to adults. D. About a third of the dirt produced in the home comes from the outside. 5. What’s the author’s attitude towards leaving shoes at the doorstep? A. Supportive B. Critical C. Indifferent D. Neutral 6. There are many benefits of not wearing shoes indoors except ________. A. showing respect B. stimulating reflection C. avoiding messing up carpet D. reducing the amount of dirt 7. What’s the best title of the text? A. Walking barefoot or not B. Getting rid of your home dirt C. Learning from African proverbs D. Leaving shoes at the doorstep for health reasons 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了在室内不穿室外鞋的重要性以及带来的一些健康好处。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to the experts, about one-third of the matter building up inside your home comes from outside, much of it being tracked in on the soles of our shoes.(根据专家的说法，大约三分之一在你家里堆积的物质来自外部，其中大部分是通过我们的鞋底追踪到的。)”可知，大约三分之一的家里产生的污垢来自外部。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“According to the experts, about one-third of the matter building up inside your home comes from outside, much of it being tracked in on the soles of our shoes.(根据专家的说法，大约三分之一在你家里堆积的物质来自外部，其中大部分是通过我们的鞋底追踪到的。)”以及本段中“But the real issue is that some of the disease-causing organisms found on our shoes and floors are drug-resistant, causing illnesses that are difficult to treat.(但真正的问题是，在我们的鞋子和地板上发现的一些致病微生物是耐药的，会导致难以治疗的疾病。)”可知，作者认为家里堆积的物质来自外部，其中大部分是通过我们的鞋底追踪到的；并且这些鞋底发现的一些微生物是致病的。因此是反对在室内穿鞋的，因此作者对于在门廊留下鞋子持支持态度。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It’s important to note that not wearing shoes inside is more than just a hygiene thing. In many cultures around the world, leaving your shoes at the door is a sign of respect, a nod to superstition and it may even be in service of good health.(重要的是要注意，在室内不穿鞋不仅仅是卫生问题。在世界各地的许多文化中，把鞋子放在门口是一种尊重的表现，是对迷信的认可，甚至可能有助于身体健康。)”可知，室内不穿鞋不仅仅是卫生问题即避免弄脏地毯，以及减少灰尘之外，在许多文化中，把鞋子放在门口也是一种尊重的表现。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要讨论了在室内不穿室外鞋的重要性。专家表示，室外鞋底携带大量的污染物和微生物，大约有三分之一的家内灰尘来自于鞋子。虽然不是所有的灰尘都是有害的，但一些鞋子及地板上的病原体对药物具有抗性，可能导致难以治疗的疾病。此外，科学家警告说，这些鞋子上可能存在致癌的微生物，因此最好将污物留在门外。不穿鞋进入室内不仅仅是为了卫生，在很多文化中，脱鞋进屋是一种尊重、迷信的表现，也可能有益于健康。足部反射治疗师认为，光脚行走可以促进血液循环，提高睡眠质量，减少炎症、疼痛和紧张。因此D选项“Leaving shoes at the doorstep for health reasons(出于健康考虑把鞋子放在门口)”概括文章主要内容，符合标题。故选D。 C “ChatGPT is a computer program that can understand and respond to text like a person. It’s like havinga conversation with a very smart robot,” says ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence text generator. In November of 2022, the computer program ChatGPT generated significant public interest across the globe for its broad applications and commercial value. This AI model demonstrated its ability to perform a variety of tasks, from generating book summaries, recommendations, and personal research assistance, to drafting college SOPs, essays, and emails. According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering. With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. The use of ChatGPT for homework assignments is a growing concern for professors across the globe. The University, on the other hand, has not addressed or made a statement on this matter. There are potential academic violations for homework and exams. One such case is Professor of Political Science and Business David Primo. He entered one of his previous test questions into ChatGPT, and ChatGPT got it exactly correct. Despite concerns, Primo understands that the issue of academic honesty is a concern that has existed and will exist forever. He talks about this as well as the many other negative uses of the internet, saying “The internet makes it easy to spread hateful messages and pirate music, but do you want to go back to a time where you couldn’t bank online, or listen to music online?” Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo. 8. What makes the program a great breakthrough? A. Its ability to perform various tasks. B. Its achievements in learning technology. C. Its wide application and commercial value. D. The combination of its concept and AI model. 9. What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean? A. dispute B. support C. disadvantage D. mistake 10. What might Primo agree with regarding the use of ChatGPT? A. It is a double-edged sword. B. It has little impact on academia. C. Its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. D. It should be prohibited for academic integrity. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. ChatGPT demonstrates its great strength. B. ChatGPT generates great argument. C. ChatGPT arouses significant public interest. D. ChatGPT causes the potential academic violations. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文介绍了一种人工智能文本生成程序ChatGPT，它能像人一样理解和回应文本，如同与一个聪明的机器人对话。同时文章也揭露了由人工智能所引起的学术诚信的问题将会一直存在。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering.(根据UR计算机科学副教授Ehsan Hoque的说法，虽然用于构建ChatGPT的概念并不是全新的，但将它们与人工智能模型相结合标志着人工智能工程领域的重大成就。)”可知，尽管构建ChatGPT的概念并不完全新，但将其与AI模型结合在一起在AI工程领域取得了重大成就。故选D。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后的内容“…over its possible violation of academic honesty.( ......可能违反学术诚信。)”可知，这个系统也因可能违反学术诚信而引起了争论。故划线词与A选项“dispute(争论)”为同义词。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo.( Primo还描绘了这种技术进步在未来被整合到课堂和评估中。Primo说：“大学应该在这方面慢慢行动，让教师们试验各种人工智能方法，适应人工智能的世界。”)”可知，Primo还描绘了这种技术进步在未来被整合到课堂和评估中。Primo认为大学应该在这方面慢慢行动，让教师们试验各种人工智能方法，适应人工智能的世界，由此推断，Primo认为ChatGPT的优点大于缺点。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. (话虽如此，该系统也引发了可能违反学术诚信的争论。)”以及第四段中“There are potential academic violations for homework and exams.(在家庭作业和考试中有潜在的学术违规。)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要讨论了ChatGPT引起了很大的争论，特别是在学术诚信方面。B选项“ChatGPT generates great argument.( ChatGPT产生了大量的争论。)”能概括全文。故选B。 D Scientists have been researching the way to get employees motivated for many years. The related research builds the fundamental and comprehensive model for study. This is especially true when the business goal is to turn unmotivated teams into productive ones. But their researchers have limitations. It is like studying the movements of car without taking out the engine. Motivation is what drives people to succeed and plays a vital role in enhancing an organizational development. It is important to study the motivation of employees because it is related to the emotion and behavior of employees. Recent studies show there are three drives for motivation. The drive to acquire must be met to optimize achievement. Thus it requires that outstanding performance should be recognized and rewards provided to polish the career path. But sometimes a written letter of app reciation generates more motivation than a thousand-dollar check, which can serve as the invisible power to boost business engagement. Successful organizations and leaders not only need to focus on the optimization of physical reward but also on moving other levers within the organization that can drive motivation. The drive to comprehend motivates many employees to higher performance. For years, it has been known that setting stretch goals can greatly impact performance. Organizations need to ensure that the various job roles provide employees with simulation that challenges them or allow them to grow. Employees don’t want to do meaningless things or monotonous job. If the job didn’t provide them with personal meaning and fulfillment, they will leave the company. The drive to defend is often the hardest lever to pull. This drive displays itself as a quest to create and promote justice, fairness, and the ability to express ourselves freely. The organizational lever for this basic human motivator is resource distribution. This drive is also me t through an employee feeling connected to a company. If their companies are merged with another, they will show worries. The key to successfully motivating employees is to meet all drives. Each of these drives is important if we are to understand employee motivation. 12. What is true about the study of motivation? A. The study is too theoretical and lacks practice. B. Its main goal is to increase the profit of organizations. C. The theory of motivating employees is set up in recent years. D. It is important for managers as it is related to the salary of employees. 13. What is against “drives of motivation”? A. The company distributes its employees reasonably. B. The company sets profound goals for its employees. C Employees gain a sense of personal belonging in the company. D. The companies provide employees with spiritual encouragement. 14. How does “the drive to comprehend” help employees perform better? A. It can help employees set higher goals. B. It can provide employees with repetitive tasks. C. It helps employees realize their own value to the company. D. It helps employees understand the development of their organizations. 15. What does the author intend to show in paragraph five? A. It is not difficult to meet the drive to defend. B. It is significant to merge with another company. C. It is very important to voice employees’ own opinions. D. It is the most difficult to distribute organizational resource. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了如何激励员工，研究了影响员工动机的三个驱动因素：获取驱动、理解驱动和防御驱动。为了提高员工的工作表现和组织的整体发展，组织需要关注员工的这三个动机，并采取相应的措施来满足这些需求。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Scientists have been researching the way to get employees motivated for many years.(多年来，科学家们一直在研究如何激励员工。)”以及“The related research builds the fundamental and comprehensive model for study. This is especially true when the business goal is to turn unmotivated teams into productive ones. But their researchers have limitations. It is like studying the movements of car without taking out the engine.(相关研究构建了基础性、综合性的研究模型。当业务目标是将缺乏动力的团队转变为富有成效的团队时，这一点尤其正确。但他们的研究人员有局限性。这就像在不取出发动机的情况下研究汽车的运动。)”可知，关于员工激励理论已经建立很多年了；同时这个理论在当业务目标是将缺乏动力的团队转变为富有成效的团队时是有效的，但是在其他方面是有局限性的，就像在不取出发动机的情况下研究汽车的运动，没有实用性，可知“这项研究过于理论化，缺乏实践性”正确。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Organizations need to ensure that the various job roles provide employees with simulation that challenges them or allow them to grow. Employees don’t want to do meaningless things or monotonous job. If the job didn’t provide them with personal meaning and fulfillment, they will leave the company.(组织需要确保不同的工作角色为员工提供挑战他们或允许他们成长的模拟。员工不想做无意义的事情或单调的工作。如果这份工作不能给他们带来个人意义和成就感，他们就会离开公司。)”可知，组织需要确保各种职位为员工提供具有挑战性或让他们成长的机会。这与选项B“The company sets profound goals for its employees.(公司为员工设定了深远的目标)”相悖，因为这里强调的是任务的挑战性和员工的成长，而不是“深远”的目标。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The drive to comprehend motivates many employees to higher performance. For years, it has been known that setting stretch goals can greatly impact performance. (对理解驱动激励着许多员工追求更高的绩效。多年来，人们已经知道设定具有挑战性的目标可以极大地影响绩效。)”以及本段中“If the job didn’t provide them with personal meaning and fulfillment, they will leave the company.(如果这份工作不能给他们带来个人意义和成就感，他们就会离开公司。)”可知，对理解的追求激励着许多员工追求更高的绩效，这给员工带来个人意义和成就感，即“理解的动力”可以帮助员工更好地表现，因为它可以帮助员工实现自己对公司的价值。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“The drive to defend is often the hardest lever to pull. This drive displays itself as a quest to create and promote justice, fairness, and the ability to express ourselves freely. (防守驱动往往是最难拉的杠杆。这种动力表现为追求创造和促进正义、公平以及自由表达自己的能力。)”可知，在防守驱动中，自由表达自己的能力是非常重要的。C选项“It is very important to voice employees’ own opinions.(表达员工自己的意见是非常重要的。)”与防守驱动的动力相符，即公平以及自由表达自己的能力。故选C。 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。 A Neurologist’s Tips to Protect Your Memory As we age, our memory declines. This is a fixed assumption for many people; however, according to neuroscientist Dr. Richard Restak, a neurologist and clinical professor, decline is not unavoidable. ___16___. Here are some of his tips for developing and maintaining a healthy memory. Pay more attention. Some memory declines are actually attention problems, not memory problems. For instance, if you’ve forgotten the name of someone you met at a cocktail party, it could be because you were talking with several people at the time. One way to pay attention when you learn new information is to visualize the word. ___17___. Play games. Dr. Restak’s “favorite working memory game” is 20 Questions — in which a group thinks of a person, place or object, and the other person, the questioner, asks 20 questions with a yes-or-no answer. To succeed, the questioner must hold all of the previous answers in memory in order to guess the correct answer. ___18___. “Maintaining information and moving it around in your mind.” Restak wrote. Read more novels. One early indicator of memory issues, according to Dr. Restak, is giving up on fiction. “People, when they begin to have memory difficulties, tend to switch to reading nonfiction.” Fiction requires active engagement with the text, starting at the beginning and working through to the end. ___19___. Storing everything on your phone means that “you don’t know it.” This can damage our own mental abilities. And the phone takes our focus away from the task at hand. Find regular everyday memory challenges. ___20___. Dr. Restak suggested composing a grocery list and memorizing it. When you get to the store, don’t automatically pull out your list (or your phone) — instead, pick up everything according to your memory. Once in a while, get in the car without turning on your GPS, and try to navigate through the streets from memory. A Beware of technology B. Sort out things on devices C. The point is to engage your working memory D. However, we can prevent the memory decline E. Ultimately, “we are what we can remember,” he said F. Having a picture associated with the word can improve recall G. There are many memory exercises that you can integrate into everyday life 【答案】16. E 17. F 18. C 19. A 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讨论了如何保护和提高记忆力的方法，如更加专注于学习新信息，通过视觉化单词来提高注意力；玩记忆游戏等。 【16题详解】 根据前文“As we age, our memory declines. This is a fixed assumption for many people; however, according to neuroscientist Dr. Richard Restak, a neurologist and clinical professor, decline is not unavoidable. (随着年龄的增长，我们的记忆力会衰退。对许多人来说，这是一个固定的假设；然而，根据神经学家和临床教授、神经学家理查德·雷斯塔克博士的说法，衰退并非不可避免。)”可知，神经学家和临床教授、神经学家理查德·雷斯塔克博士的说法，记忆衰退并非不可避免，在记忆衰退的过程中，我们最终就成为了我们所能够记忆的样子。E选项“Ultimately, “we are what we can remember,” he said(他最终说：“我们就是我们所能记忆的东西。”)”承接前文，指出在记忆的衰退过程中，最终我们变成了我们能够记忆的样子，该选项符合语境。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据前文的“One way to pay attention when you learn new information is to visualize the word.( 当你学习新信息时，集中注意力的一种方法是将单词形象化。)”可知，此处强调的是将单词形象化。后文应该对该方法进行具体举例说明。F选项“Having a picture associated with the word can improve recall(与单词相关的图片可以提高记忆力)”中，强调将单词与相关的图片联系到一起，即解释的事单词的形象化。该选项承接前文，符合语境。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据本段最后一句“Maintaining information and moving it around in your mind.(保持信息并在大脑中移动。)”可知，这里强调的是要让你的大脑活跃起来。C选项“The point is to engage your working memory(关键是要调动你的工作记忆)”强调的是调动你的工作记忆，让大脑运转起来，符合语境。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据后文中“Storing everything on your phone means that “you don’t know it.” This can damage our own mental abilities. And the phone takes our focus away from the task at hand.( 把所有东西都存到手机上意味着“你不知道”。这会损害我们自己的心智能力。手机会分散我们手头工作的注意力。)”可知，本段强调的是避免将所有的信息都通过手机（科技技术）来存储，这样会分散自己手头上的注意力，降低自己的记忆。A选项“Beware of technology(小心技术)”概括本段内容，强调“小心技术”符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据本段段旨“Find regular everyday memory challenges.(找到有规律的日常记忆挑战。)”可知，本段强调的是有规律的进行日常记忆挑战。G选项“There are many memory exercises that you can integrate into everyday life(有很多记忆练习可以融入日常生活)”中强调很多记忆联系可以融入到日常生活，形成呼应，符合语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Ethan was passionate about playing the guitar.

Jenna was excited when Ms. Baroni announced Marti, Jenna’s best friend, would be taking lessons too. Everyone’s warm welcome made Marti blush, and Jenna walked over to comfort her. After warm-up exercises, Ms. Baroni divided everyone into color-belt groups. Even though Jenna was a yellow belt and a level above Marti, Ms. Baroni asked them to work together. Jenna nodded and demonstrated (展示) a front kick confidently. Marti copied it. Her kick was as high as Jenna’s shoulder. Then came a burst of cheers from Ms. Baroni behind. She spent the next five minutes showing Marti moves. Jenna threw herself against the wall, staring at Marti copying everything Ms. Baroni did. The more Marti did, the more praise she earned from Ms. Baroni. What if Marti became better than her? What if Marti became Ms. Baroni’s favorite student? Jenna was practicing her form (招式) halfheartedly when she heard a scolding. “Watch your form!”Jenna turned and noticed Ms. Baroni looking directly at her. Nothing could have been worse. But afterwards, she heard Ms. Baroni’s encouraging words. “You’ve memorized your form perfectly, but your moves could be better. Try the side kick again.” However, the encouragement didn’t work. The moment the class was over, Jenna grabbed her bag and hurried outside. She had planned to wait for Marti, but now she preferred to be left alone. For the following weeks, Marti continued to impress their teacher with her skills. And as Marti turned into a star student, Jenna became less and less excited about taekwondo. One day, Marti told Jenna the good news that she was ready to test for her new belt with Ms. Baroni’s recognition. Jenna stopped in her tracks and said sourly. “It’s more challenging than you imagine.” Marti looked disappointed. “You don’t think I’m skillful enough to test yet?” Jenna felt her face flushed and denied. She didn’t like feeling jealous, but she couldn’t help it. She wasn’t ready for her next belt because she hadn’t been practicing every day. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A week later, at the belt testing, Jenna saw Marti warming up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Jenna thought, “I don’t practice that much in a week!” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： A week later, at the belt testing, Jenna saw Martin warming up. After warm-up exercises, Marti took a deep breath and started to show her forms, demonstrating the front kick and side kick with confidence. After her last form shown in a perfect way, floods of cheers and applause came from Ms Baroni and audience present. Undoubtedly, Marti passed the belt test. At the sight of Marti’s excited expression, Jenna was overwhelmed by a sense of envy. “How could she make it?” Jenna murmured. Then came Ms Baroni’s voice. “Jenna deserves success. She nearly employed all her spare time to practice.” Jenna thought, “I don’t practice that much in a week!” No wonder that Marti performed so well. Reflecting on what she had done before, Jenna felt ashamed of her behavior and regretted not practicing attentively. As Jenna was immersed in thoughts, Marti approached and invited her to celebrate this exciting occasion. At that moment, Jenna realized the holy friendship between them could not be defeated by jealousy and spilt out all her inner feelings to Marti. With a mixture of astonishment and guilt, Marti hugged Jenna tightly and made an appointment that she would practice with Jenna every day. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了Jenna在跆拳道馆与好朋友Marti一起学习的故事。尽管Jenna在技能上比Marti更强，但她却因为嫉妒而变得心不在焉，没有全心全意地练习。而Marti则通过努力和专注，逐渐成为了老师的得意门生。在一次测试中，Marti表现出色，通过了带级测试，Jenna因此深感羡慕。然而，她后来意识到，真正的友谊应该超越嫉妒，她向Marti坦露了自己的感受，两人决定一起努力练习，共同进步。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，在跆拳道测试中，Jenna看到Marti在热身。”可知，第一段可描写Marti在赛场上的表现，以及现场观众的热烈回应，并且描写Jenna怀疑Marti如此优秀的心理活动。 ②由第二段首句内容“Jenna想：“我一周都没练那么多！””可知，第二段可描写Jenna为自己的所作所为感到羞愧并且Marti邀请Jenna共同庆祝自己取得的成绩，二人最终和好如初。 2.续写线索： Marti在赛场上的表现——观众热烈回应——Jenna得知Marti刻苦训练——Jenna感知羞愧——共同庆祝获奖时刻——二人和好如初共同训练 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①展示：show/showcase ②.利用：employ/make use of ③.接近：approach/come over/get close to 情绪类 ①.激动的：excited/thrilled ②.惊讶：astonishment/amazement/shock 【点睛】[高分句型1]. After warm-up exercises, Marti took a deep breath and started to show her forms, demonstrating the front kick and side kick with confidence. （由现在分词demonstrating 作状语） [高分句型2]. With a mixture of astonishment and guilt, Marti hugged Jenna tightly and made an appointment that she would practice with Jenna every day.（由介词短语With a mixture of astonishment and guilt作状语以及that引导同位语从句） 听力 1—5 BCAAB 6—10 AACBB 11—15 CCACC 16—20 BBCAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
