Would you believe they were the creation of a special creative mind? Whose was it? Jim Henson’s, of course! Jim Henson was born in Greenville, Mississippi, in 1936. As an adult, he loved to work with puppets (木偶). Before he turned 20 years old. he had achieved success with a popular late-night puppet show called Sam and Friends. Henson became known for his humor, and his puppets often appeared in television ads. Henson also developed the technique of using cameras to focus on the puppets while keeping the puppeteers out of the frame (相框). This allowed puppeteers more freedom, since they didn’t have to be stuck behind a screen. It also made the puppets seen much more lifelike. Henson’s big break came in 1969, when his puppets became an important part of popular educational show Sesame Street. Since that time, Henson’s beloved characters have become closely related to public television. In 1976, Henson developed his own comedy show-The Muppet Show, based upon his puppets. It struggled at first, but eventually became a success that was one of the most widely watched television shows in history. Always preparing for a challenge, Henson branched out (拓展) into major movies, proving that his puppets could be as popular on the big screen as they were on television. Over the years. Henson’s characters had charmed countless people with their unique humor. In 1990, the whole world was sad to hear that Jim Henson passed away suddenly. Today, his work lives on through the various companies and organizations he set up. He has inspired millions of people with his creativity. His words have also inspired many to follow their dreams. 4. Why does the author mention The Muppets in the first paragraph? A. To compare its characters. B. To show a kind of art form. C. To introduce a famous film. D. To draw our attention to its creator. 5. From paragraph 3, we can know Jim Henson is___________. A. creative B. patient C. positive D. serious 6. When did Jim Henson make his own comedy show? A. In 1936. B. In 1969. C. In 1976. D. In 1990. 7. What can we learn about Jim Henson from the last two paragraphs? A. He failed in his attempt at movies. B. His work mainly focuses on children. C. He has made a big difference to many people. D. His puppets have lost their popularity now. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了著名的木偶剧的制作人吉姆·亨森的生平。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Would you believe they were the creation of a special creative mind? Whose was it? Jim Henson’s, of course!( 你会相信它们是一个特别的具有创造力的人的作品吗？是谁的？当然是吉姆·亨森的！) ”可知，作者提及这些木偶是为了引起我们对于创作者的注意，故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Henson also developed the technique of using cameras to focus on the puppets while keeping the puppeteers out of the frame(相框). This allowed puppeteers more freedom, since they didn’t have to be stuck behind a screen. It also made the puppets seen much more lifelike. (亨森还开发了一种技术，即使用相机聚焦木偶，同时将木偶师挡在画面之外。这让木偶师有了更多的自由，因为他们不必被困在屏幕后面。这也使木偶看起来更加逼真。) ”可知，吉姆·亨森是一个具有创造力的人，故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“In 1976, Henson developed his own comedy show-The Muppet Show, based upon his puppets.( 1976年，亨森根据他的木偶制作了自己的喜剧节目《布偶秀》。) ”可知，亨森在1976年制作了自己的木偶剧，故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He has inspired millions of people with his creativity. His words have also inspired many to follow their dreams.( 他的创造力激励了数百万人。他的话也激励了许多人追随自己的梦想。) ”可知，他给很多人带来了重大的影响，故选C项。 C On Nov.13, 2023, the Kenyan government announced a surprise public holiday for a nationwide tree planting day, part of its plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032. “This Monday on Nov.13, the public across the country were expected to plant trees as a contribution to the national efforts to save our country from the terrible effects of climate change,” said Kindiki, the Home Minister of Kenya. Kenya’s present forest coverage stands at about 7%. Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%. “It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers. He added, “Having been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing rather well, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’” 8. What is the purpose of the public holiday? A. To increase economic income. B. To encourage people to plant trees. C. To allow people to get more rest. D. To remind people to get close to nature. 9. Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3? A. Increase. B. Figure. C. Record. D. Stop. 10. What does Soipan Tuya want to say by referring to the day as “a ‘hummingbird’ contribution day”? A. We should get on well with birds. B. No contribution is too small to leave an impact. C. Each animal is important to nature. D. It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect Wildlife B. Kenya Is in Face of Environmental Problems C. Kenya Improves Relationships with Their Neighbors D. Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant Trees 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道，介绍了肯尼亚政府意料地宣布了一个全国性的公共假日——植树节，为了拯救国家免受气候变化的可怕影响做出贡献。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“On Nov.13, 2023, the Kenyan government announced a surprise public holiday for a nationwide tree planting day, part of its plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032.(2023年11月13日，肯尼亚政府出人意料地宣布了一个全国性的公共假日——植树节，该计划的一部分是到2032年种植150亿棵树)”可知，公共假日的目的是为了鼓励人们植树。故选B。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段划线词前文“Kenya’s present forest coverage stands at about 7%. Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row.(肯尼亚目前的森林覆盖率约为7%。森林砍伐加速了气候变化，加剧了非洲之角的干旱，包括肯尼亚，那里已经连续五季没有降雨)”及后文“tree coverage to more than 10%(树木覆盖率达到10%以上)”可知，肯尼亚政府想要努力将森林覆盖率从原来的7%增加到10%，划线词与Increase意思相近。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.(他把这一天称为“一个‘蜂鸟’的贡献日”。蜂鸟是一种小型鸟类，但它们通过授粉在环境中发挥着重要作用)”可知，这一天被称为“一个‘蜂鸟’的贡献日”是为了表示，虽然个人只是采取小的行动，但是在整体的环境中却起到了重要的作用，因此，Soipan Tuya想要表明的是“再小的贡献也能产生影响。”故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“On Nov.13, 2023, the Kenyan government announced a surprise public holiday for a nationwide tree planting day, part of its plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032.(2023年11月13日，肯尼亚政府出人意料地宣布了一个全国性的公共假日——植树节，该计划的一部分是到2032年种植150亿棵树)”及全文内容可知，本文介绍了肯尼亚政府意料地宣布了一个全国性的公共假日——植树节。D选项“肯尼亚给公众带来了一个意外的植树节日”符合主旨。故选D。 D Does bad grammar drive you crazy? It may not just be a matter of opinion — scientists at the University of Birmingham in the UK have shown that hearing bad grammar can make us feel stressed, because it causes the body’s autonomic nervous system, which controls our body’s unconscious (无意识的) processes such as breathing and heart rate. The study tested how our heart rate answers when we hear grammatical mistakes in a speech. It found a direct connection between poor grammar and reduced heart rate variability, which is the measure of the variation in time between our heartbeats, and a known sign of stress. For the research, 41 healthy British English-speaking adults listened to 40 speech records by four different speakers with British and Polish accents (口音), while their heart rate was monitored by a machine attached to their fingers. Some of the speeches had grammatical mistakes, using the words “a”, “an” and “the” incorrectly. The length of the speeches changed, and the number of grammatical mistakes in them changed, too. The results showed that on average, the listeners’ heart rate variability dropped when they heard grammatical mistakes in the speech. They also showed that the more mistakes that listeners heard, the further their heart rate variability dropped. In addition to this, the listeners found it more stressful to hear grammatical mistakes made by native English speakers compared to speakers with a Polish accent, because heart rate variability was more reduced when hearing grammatical mistakes made by those with a British accent. The study’s lead author, Dagmar Divjak, said the results could have a practical application: They might be used to help test the mental abilities of people who cannot speak due to poor health or old age. 12. What does the research focus on? A. The rules of learning grammar. B. The ways to avoid making mistakes. C. The importance of having a good mood. D. The impact of grammatical mistakes on our feeling. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the research? A. Its effect. B. Its result. C. Its process. D. Its purpose. 14. Which sentence may make listeners feel stressed according to the text? A. How happy we are! B. I has nothing to do at home. C. That book was a little boring. D. My class saw a film yesterday. 15. What does Dagmar Divjak think of the results? A. Useful. B. Meaningless. C. Confusing. D. Doubtful. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，文章通过实验来探索语法错误对我们情感的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It may not just be a matter of opinion—scientists at the University of Birmingham in the UK have shown that hearing bad grammar can make us feel stressed, because it causes the body’s autonomic nervous system, which controls our body’s unconscious (无意识的) processes such as breathing and heart rate. (这可能不仅仅是意见问题——英国伯明翰大学的科学家们已经表明，听到错误的语法会让我们感到压力，因为它会导致身体的自主神经系统，控制我们身体的无意识过程，如呼吸和心率)”可知，文中研究的重点是语法错误对我们情感的影响。故选D。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“For the research, 41 healthy British English-speaking adults listened to 40 speech records by four different speakers with British and Polish accents (口音), while their heart rate was monitored by a machine attached to their fingers. Some of the speeches had grammatical mistakes, using the words “a”, “an” and “the” incorrectly. The length of the speeches changed, and the number of grammatical mistakes in them changed, too.(在这项研究中，41名说英语的健康成年人听了4位操英国口音和波兰口音的不同人士的40份讲话记录，同时他们的心率由绑在手指上的机器监测。一些演讲有语法错误，错误地使用了“a”、“an”和“the”。演讲的长度变了，语法错误的数量也变了)”可知，该段讲述了研究的过程。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“In addition to this, the listeners found it more stressful to hear grammatical mistakes made by native English speakers compared to speakers with a Polish accent, because heart rate variability was more reduced when hearing grammatical mistakes made by those with a British accent.(除此之外，与波兰口音的人相比，听众发现听到以英语为母语的人犯语法错误更有压力，因为听到英国口音的人犯语法错误时，心率变异性更小)”可知，听者听到英语母语者犯语法错误时压力更大，B选项中主语为I，第一人称，has为第三人称单数动词，为语法错误。故推测听到该句子，听者会感到更大的压力。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The study’s lead author, Dagmar Divjak, said the results could have a practical application: They might be used to help test the mental abilities of people who cannot speak due to poor health or old age.(该研究的主要作者达格玛·迪夫亚克说，研究结果可能具有实际应用价值：它们可能用于帮助测试那些因健康状况不佳或年龄较大而不能说话的人的心理能力)”可知，Dagmar Divjak认为研究结果有实用价值，因此，是有用的。故选A。 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 People normally look for a bit of adventure in their lives.

They were learning about science, which Jessie normally enjoyed. However, a bird stayed outside the classroom window, which Jessie’s desk was right next to. So it caught much of Jessie’s attention. “Jessie, are you listening?” Mrs. Williamson’s question cut in Jessie’s thoughts. Jessie turned to her teacher. “What was that?” she asked. The teacher frowned (皱眉), saying it was the second time that morning that she hadn’t been listening and that she was supposed to do better. Jessie’s face turned red, thinking Mrs. Williamson shouldn’t have said that to her. Jessie couldn’t help it if the bird by her desk was distracting (分心) her. When the bell rang for a break, the teacher stopped Jessie. “I hope you will think about what I said in class,” she told her. “A rule is a rule. And it’s important for everyone to follow the rules.” Jessie nodded to show she understood, but she didn’t really take it seriously, still thinking Mrs. Williamson was being too strict. Then she rushed outside to play ball games with other kids. They first picked teams and made the rules for the game. According to the rules, when a team got two outs, they had to go to the outfield (外场). Jessie’s team was in the outfield first. In the game, she tried her best. Soon, the other team got two outs, and then it was Jessie’s turn to kick the ball. 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。 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. It made Jessie angry and she complained it was not fair. One of the players on the other team said they didn’t enjoy the game but Jessie thought that they had to keep on with the game, reminding them it was one of the rules and a rule is a rule. But as soon as she said the words, she remembered what happened in class. Mrs. Williamson had told her a rule is a rule, too. No wonder her teacher was so strict. Rules were important for everything to be fair. Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. Seeing Jessie at the door, Mrs. Williamson was a little surprised. She found Jessie’s face flushed with shame. Jessie apologized and promised to follow the rules in class and she was going to do better from then on. Her teacher smiled warmly and hugged Jessie, saying, “I’m proud of you, Jessie. It is very brave of you to apologize.” Jessie smiled, too. She felt much better, and she understood that she needed to follow the class rules. After all, a rule is a rule! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了杰西由于被窗外的鸟儿吸引上课走神被Williamson老师点名批评，老师说规则必须被遵守，但杰西不以为然，之后她到操场上进行比赛，却看到对方队伍违背规则，自己很生气，想起了课上老师的话，认识到规则对于公平的重要性，之后杰西认识到自己的错误去找老师道歉，老师表示为她感到骄傲，她明白了要遵守班级规则。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“对方没有给杰西的队得分的机会，而是退出了。”可知，第一段可描写杰西看到对方的举动的反应，并认为规则就是规则，需要被遵守，从而想起了课上发生的事情，认识到自己的错误。 ②由第二段首句内容“杰西去了威廉姆森夫人的办公室。”可知，第二段可描写杰西向老师道歉，并承诺以后遵守课堂规则，老师为她感到骄傲。 2.续写线索：杰西生气——对方队员解释——杰西坚持对方应该遵守规则——回忆课上发生的事情——意识到自己的问题——前去道歉，做出保证——老师骄傲 3.词汇激活 行为类 继续：keep on with/go on with/continue with/carry on with 想起：remember/recall 发生：happen/take place 情绪类 生气：angry/ irritated/ pissed off 惊讶的：surprised/amazed 【点睛】[高分句型1] But as soon as she said the words, she remembered what happened in class.（由as soon as引导的时间状语从句和what引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] Seeing Jessie at the door, Mrs. Williamson was a little surprised.（由现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2023～2024学年度高中同步月考测试卷（四） 高一英语 考生注意： 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时,请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 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，清分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，你那有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.

Would you believe they were the creation of a special creative mind? Whose was it? Jim Henson’s, of course! Jim Henson was born in Greenville, Mississippi, in 1936. As an adult, he loved to work with puppets (木偶). Before he turned 20 years old. he had achieved success with a popular late-night puppet show called Sam and Friends. Henson became known for his humor, and his puppets often appeared in television ads. Henson also developed the technique of using cameras to focus on the puppets while keeping the puppeteers out of the frame (相框). This allowed puppeteers more freedom, since they didn’t have to be stuck behind a screen. It also made the puppets seen much more lifelike. Henson’s big break came in 1969, when his puppets became an important part of popular educational show Sesame Street. Since that time, Henson’s beloved characters have become closely related to public television. In 1976, Henson developed his own comedy show-The Muppet Show, based upon his puppets. It struggled at first, but eventually became a success that was one of the most widely watched television shows in history. Always preparing for a challenge, Henson branched out (拓展) into major movies, proving that his puppets could be as popular on the big screen as they were on television. Over the years. Henson’s characters had charmed countless people with their unique humor. In 1990, the whole world was sad to hear that Jim Henson passed away suddenly. Today, his work lives on through the various companies and organizations he set up. He has inspired millions of people with his creativity. His words have also inspired many to follow their dreams. 4. Why does the author mention The Muppets in the first paragraph? A. To compare its characters. B. To show a kind of art form. C. To introduce a famous film. D. To draw our attention to its creator. 5. From paragraph 3, we can know Jim Henson is___________. A. creative B. patient C. positive D. serious 6. When did Jim Henson make his own comedy show? A. In 1936. B. In 1969. C. In 1976. D. In 1990. 7. What can we learn about Jim Henson from the last two paragraphs? A. He failed in his attempt at movies. B. His work mainly focuses on children. C. He has made a big difference to many people. D. His puppets have lost their popularity now. C On Nov.13, 2023, the Kenyan government announced a surprise public holiday for a nationwide tree planting day, part of its plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032. “This Monday on Nov.13, the public across the country were expected to plant trees as a contribution to the national efforts to save our country from the terrible effects of climate change,” said Kindiki, the Home Minister of Kenya. Kenya’s present forest coverage stands at about 7%. Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%. “It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers. He added, “Having been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing rather well, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’” 8. What is the purpose of the public holiday? A. To increase economic income. B. To encourage people to plant trees. C. To allow people to get more rest. D. To remind people to get close to nature. 9. Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3? A. Increase. B. Figure. C. Record. D. Stop. 10. What does Soipan Tuya want to say by referring to the day as “a ‘hummingbird’ contribution day”? A. We should get on well with birds. B. No contribution is too small to leave an impact. C. Each animal is important to nature. D. It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect Wildlife B. Kenya Is in Face of Environmental Problems C. Kenya Improves Relationships with Their Neighbors D. Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant Trees D Does bad grammar drive you crazy? It may not just be a matter of opinion — scientists at the University of Birmingham in the UK have shown that hearing bad grammar can make us feel stressed, because it causes the body’s autonomic nervous system, which controls our body’s unconscious (无意识的) processes such as breathing and heart rate. The study tested how our heart rate answers when we hear grammatical mistakes in a speech. It found a direct connection between poor grammar and reduced heart rate variability, which is the measure of the variation in time between our heartbeats, and a known sign of stress. For the research, 41 healthy British English-speaking adults listened to 40 speech records by four different speakers with British and Polish accents (口音), while their heart rate was monitored by a machine attached to their fingers. Some of the speeches had grammatical mistakes, using the words “a”, “an” and “the” incorrectly. The length of the speeches changed, and the number of grammatical mistakes in them changed, too. The results showed that on average, the listeners’ heart rate variability dropped when they heard grammatical mistakes in the speech. They also showed that the more mistakes that listeners heard, the further their heart rate variability dropped. In addition to this, the listeners found it more stressful to hear grammatical mistakes made by native English speakers compared to speakers with a Polish accent, because heart rate variability was more reduced when hearing grammatical mistakes made by those with a British accent. The study’s lead author, Dagmar Divjak, said the results could have a practical application: They might be used to help test the mental abilities of people who cannot speak due to poor health or old age. 12. What does the research focus on? A. The rules of learning grammar. B. The ways to avoid making mistakes. C. The importance of having a good mood. D. The impact of grammatical mistakes on our feeling. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the research? A. Its effect. B. Its result. C. Its process. D. Its purpose. 14. Which sentence may make listeners feel stressed according to the text? A. How happy we are! B. I has nothing to do at home. C. That book was a little boring. D. My class saw a film yesterday. 15. What does Dagmar Divjak think of the results? A. Useful. B. Meaningless. C. Confusing. D. Doubtful. 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 People normally look for a bit of adventure in their lives.

They were learning about science, which Jessie normally enjoyed. However, a bird stayed outside the classroom window, which Jessie’s desk was right next to. So it caught much of Jessie’s attention. “Jessie, are you listening?” Mrs. Williamson’s question cut in Jessie’s thoughts. Jessie turned to her teacher. “What was that?” she asked. The teacher frowned (皱眉), saying it was the second time that morning that she hadn’t been listening and that she was supposed to do better. Jessie’s face turned red, thinking Mrs. Williamson shouldn’t have said that to her. Jessie couldn’t help it if the bird by her desk was distracting (分心) her. When the bell rang for a break, the teacher stopped Jessie. “I hope you will think about what I said in class,” she told her. “A rule is a rule. And it’s important for everyone to follow the rules.” Jessie nodded to show she understood, but she didn’t really take it seriously, still thinking Mrs. Williamson was being too strict. Then she rushed outside to play ball games with other kids. They first picked teams and made the rules for the game. According to the rules, when a team got two outs, they had to go to the outfield (外场). Jessie’s team was in the outfield first. In the game, she tried her best. Soon, the other team got two outs, and then it was Jessie’s turn to kick the ball. 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。 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
