Using the address on the driver’s license (驾照) inside the purse, Peter drove to the house and knocked on the front door. The purse belonged to Eliana Martin, a former roommate of Melina Marquez. Martin had not changed her address since her recent move, so the purse was brought to Marquez’s home. Marquez was not at home when Peter arrived. He left it with a relative at the house, and their dialogues were recorded by Marquez’s camera by chance. “I looked into the camera later, and I thought to myself “Oh my dear. He’s such a young kid. We need to find him and thank him,” recalled Marquez. She posted the video of Peter on the Internet and the Chula Vista community quickly went to work. “I woke up and I had a lot of messages like, ‘Oh is this you?’” Peter said. The ladies invited him to Marquez’s house so Martin could say thanks in person. After they knew the boy’s poor family, they also started a GoFundMe page in his honor. The online fundraiser has received 677 donations (捐赠), totaling $15,145. “It feels good. I appreciate it. I really do everything everybody’s doing,” Peter told NBC News. “My mom always told me since I was little to always do the right thing when nobody’s around.” “This is something that we really need.

Take airports for example, paperwork will be a thing of the past. Instead of paper passports,your information will be stored in the cloud. This type of technology won’t just include what we are familiar with today——like fingerprints or face scans—but also your heartbeat, as everyone’s heartbeat is unique. There will be no need to check in. The facial recognition programme will instead be able to recognise you, match you with your booked flight and send messages to your phone as you walk through the airport without stopping. Your bags, especially the heavy ones, will be sent directly from your train or taxi to the right plane. And that taxi will not be like the ones we know today. People will be expected to travel to the airport--and around their holiday destinations-in eVTOLs, which refers to électric air taxis that can take off and land without a runway. As for the trouble of packing, 3D printers will provide perfect solutions. Simply provide your destination with your size using a body scan before you fly and, upon arrival, you will find a wardrobe(衣橱) filled with 3D-printed clothes. When you leave, these clothes will be recycled and. reprinted for the next tourist. Not only will this solve the problem of packing, but also make holiday fashion more environment-friendly. While the predictions might seem unbelievable now, you only have to look back 50 years to realize it’s all possible. Think back to 1973 when smartphones were just a wild dream. “Google” seemed like a made-up word then, and notebook computers were still almost years away from being invented. Similarly, when we look forward to the next 50 years, the possibilities for development in technology for travel are endless. 8. What can we learn about the check-in at the airport in 2070? A. You’ll have to carry your paper passports. B. It won’t need your heartbeat information. C. You must stop to check the phone for boarding. D. It is no longer needed because of the facial recognition programme. 9. When you get to the destination, . A. your bag will be sent to you by taxi B. a body scan will work out your size C. the clothes of your size will be ready for you D. your packing may do harm to the environment 10. Why does the author mention 1973 in the last paragraph? A. To prove the predictions are possible. B. To show the inventions are necessary. C. To list the achievements of the year. D. To express the confidence for travel. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. A new type of air taxi.。 B. Prediction for future of travel. C. The advantage of 3D prints. D. The solution to future packing. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了对未来旅行的预测。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“There will be no need to check in. The facial recognition programme will instead be able to recognise you, match you with your booked flight and send messages to your phone as you walk through the airport without stopping. (不需要办理登机手续。替代的是，面部识别程序将能够识别你，将你与你预订的航班相匹配，并在你不停车地穿过机场时向你的手机发送信息。)”可知，因为有了面部识别程序，2070年的机场办理登机手续不再需要了。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Simply provide your destination with your size using a body scan before you fly and, upon arrival, you will find a wardrobe(衣橱) filled with 3D-printed clothes. (只需在起飞前通过身体扫描向目的地提供你的尺寸，到达目的地后，你就会发现一个装满3D打印衣服的衣橱。)”可知，当你到达目的地时，适合您尺寸的衣服会为您准备好的。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“While the predictions might seem unbelievable now, you only have to look back 50 years to realize it’s all possible. Think back to 1973 when smartphones were just a wild dream. (虽然现在这些预测可能看起来难以置信，但你只需要回顾50年，就会意识到这一切都是可能的。回想一下1973年，当时智能手机只是一个疯狂的梦想。)”可以推知，作者提到1973年是为了证明预测是可能的。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段“Travel is predicted to look extremely different in 2070. (据预测，2070年的旅行将与现在大不相同。)”可知，本文主要介绍了对未来旅行的预测。B项“对未来旅行的预测”符合主题，故选B项。 D A Spanish project is attempting to use 3D-printed coral reefs to provide habitat for fish and protection for beaches and coastal communities at risk from rising seas and other damage. Coral reefs are decreasing globally, and some scientists say we could lose 70% - 90% of our reefs due to warming ocean waters. That has all kinds of serious influences because a quarter of the world’s fish live in and around reefs. Reefs are important protectors of coastal communities threatened by high waves, and they support the biodiversity (生物多样性). That led Nadia Fani and her co-founder Astrid Kramer to start Coastruction, a non-profit organization. “Even if you start on a small scale (规模)... a square kilometer already, it could have a great impact,” Fani says. “It could really protect a coast, a beach, or an area where there is a community and it needs protection because the sea level is rising.” Being able to use 3D printing is important, because you can match individual sites. Every location is different with different coral species. “It’s like everybody has a different house,” Fani says. “You can take into account habitat requirements of not just the coral but also the fish that live nearby. ” Their present technology can print various shapes. The result can be an amazingly natural-looking man-made rock with plenty of corners for both coral and fish to attach themselves and make homes. The Coastruction founders don’t think they can possibly meet the global demand, so their goal is to provide the tools — like the 3D printer — for local people and develop the technology to create the artificial (人造) coral reefs by using cheap and locally-available materials. No high temperatures or chemical additives are required, and any loose powder or sand material not used in one print will be used in the next. The 3D printer works on-site, so there’s no transport of finished blocks required. 12. What does the underlined word “That” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The biodiversity of coral reefs. B. The reduction in coral species. C. The warming of ocean waters. D. The loss of global coral reefs. 13. What do Fani’s words imply? A. 3D-printed reefs can hardly save the ocean. B. 3D-printed reefs fail to provide perfect fish habitat. C. Small actions make a difference to ocean protection. D. Small-scale production of reefs is a drop in the ocean. 14. What result can the present 3D printing achieve now? A. Creating lifelike reefs. B. Lowering reefs’ temperatures. C. Printing regular-shaped reefs. D. Using any material to produce reefs. 15. What is one goal of the Coastruction founders? A. Putting their reefs into mass production. B. Transporting finished reefs to more places. C. Adapting their technology for local conditions. D. Adding chemicals to reefs to make them colorful. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了西班牙的一个项目正在尝试利用3D打印技术打印珊瑚礁，为鱼类提供栖息地，并保护面临海平而上升和其他破坏风险的海滩和沿海社区。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Coral reefs are decreasing globally, and some scientists say we could lose 70% - 90% of our reefs due to warming ocean waters.(全球的珊瑚礁正在减少，一些科学家说，由于海水变暖，我们可能会失去70% - 90%的珊瑚礁)”可知，全球珊瑚礁正在减少，结合that后“has all kinds of serious influences because a quarter of the world’s fish live in and around reefs.(有各种各样的严重影响，因为世界上四分之一的鱼生活在珊瑚礁及其周围)”可知，此处是指珊瑚礁的极具减少会带来各种各样的影响。即that指代“全球珊瑚礁的减少”。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““Even if you start on a small scale (规模)... a square kilometer already, it could have a great impact,” Fani says. “It could really protect a coast, a beach, or an area where there is a community and it needs protection because the sea level is rising.”(“即使你从小规模开始(规模)……一平方公里，它可能会产生巨大的影响，”Fani说。“它真的可以保护海岸、海滩或社区所在的地区，因为海平面正在上升，这些地区需要保护。”) ”推知，Fani认为小的行为也会给海洋保护带来巨大的影响。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Their present technology can print various shapes. The result can be an amazingly natural-looking man-made rock with plenty of corners for both coral and fish to attach themselves and make homes.(他们目前的技术可以打印各种形状。结果就会是一块看起来非常自然的人造岩石，有很多角落可供珊瑚和鱼类附着和筑巢)”可知，目前的3D打印技术能够打印出看起来非常自然的人造岩石，有很多角落可供珊瑚和鱼类附着和筑巢。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The Coastruction founders don’t think they can possibly meet the global demand, so their goal is to provide the tools — like the 3D printer — for local people and develop the technology to create the artificial (人造的) coral reefs by using cheap and locally-available materials. No high temperatures or chemical additives are required, and any loose powder or sand material not used in one print will be used in the next. The 3D printer works on-site, so there’s no transport of finished blocks required.(Coastruction的创始人认为他们不可能满足全球的需求，所以他们的目标是为当地人提供像3D打印机这样的工具，并开发使用廉价和当地可用材料制造人工珊瑚礁的技术。不需要高温或化学添加剂，任何未在一次打印中使用的松散粉末或砂型材料将在下一次打印中使用。3D打印机在现场工作，所以不需要运输成品块)”可知，Coastruction 的创始人想通过提供工具并使用便宜且当地就能获得的材料来打印珊瑚礁。由此推知，Coastruction的创始人的目标之一是希望他们的技术能够适应当地的情况。故选C。 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。 These four good habits will improve some aspects of your life. Do one thing at a time ____16____. In truth, it’s not the best way to get things done. Instead of jumping from one thing to the next like a ping-pong ball, stick with one task as long as you can. That concentrated time you spend on one thing will be far more productive. ____17____. Create a place for everything Imagine all things in your home have a place where they live. For example, toys go into a basket when they’re not in use. ____18____. If you regularly (定期的) have lots of things that have nowhere to go, it may be time to make some hard choices about what you really want to keep. ____19____ Get up at the same time every day, preferably all seven days a week. A consistent (一致的) sleep schedule helps form your body’s circadian rhythm (昼夜节律). Sleeping late on the weekends is not bad. But it feels better to get regular rests every day. Learn how to say no Saying yes to everything can be a difficult habit to break for most of us. But learning how to draw a line is one of the best things you can do for yourself. You have the power not to agree to help everyone else with their problems. ____20____. Your time is just as valuable as everyone else’s. A. Set a realistic goal B. Keep a consistent sleep schedule C. In this way you spare lots of time for yourself D. If so, tidying up your home gets a whole lot quicker E. Most of us sometimes do several things at the same time F. Being efficient with the time you have is crucial for productivity G. Instead, you will easily feel tired when trying to finish three things meantime 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. D 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四个改善生活的好习惯。 16题详解】 下文“In truth, it’s not the best way to get things done.(事实上，这不是完成事情的最佳方式)”，空处应对应本段标题“Do one thing at a time(一次做一件事)”，并且指出下文it指代的内容，E项“我们大多数人有时同时做几件事”符合语境。故选E项。 【17题详解】 上文“That concentrated time you spend on one thing will be far more productive.(把时间集中在一件事上会更有效率)”表明一个时间只做一件事会效率更高，空处承接上文，G项“相反，当你试图同时完成三件事时，你会很容易感到疲惫”跟上文相对照，表明另外一种结果，符合题意。故选G项。 【18题详解】 上文“Imagine all things in your home have a place where they live. For example, toys go into a basket when they’re not in use. (想象一下，你家里的所有东西都有一个他们居住的地方。例如，玩具不用时会放进篮子里)”指出所有东西要有自己的地方，空处承接上文，D项“如果是这样的话，整理你的家会更快”是对前面句子的顺承，符合语境。故选D项。 19题详解】 空处作为小标题，应概括本段内容，下文第一句“Get up at the same time every day, preferably all seven days a week.A consistent (一致的) sleep schedule helps form your body’s circadian rhythm (昼夜节律). (每天在同一时间起床，最好一周七天都一样。一致的睡眠时间表有助于形成你身体的昼夜节律。)”是对小标题的进一步解释，B项“保持一致的睡眠时间表”跟主题内容一致，符合语境，同时a consistent sleep schedule是同词复现。故选B项。 【20题详解】 上文“You have the power not to agree to help everyone else with their problems.(你有权不同意帮助其他人解决他们的问题)”表明你可以向别人说“不”，空处承上启下，下文“Your time is just as valuable as everyone else’s.(你的时间和其他人的时间一样宝贵)”表明你自己的时间也很重要，要留给自己时间，C项“这样你就为自己腾出了很多时间”符合语境。故选C项。 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A child wrote a heartbreaking composition about cellphones.

She wished she could do better. “Let’s review the material we learned in the last unit,” the history teacher said. “Who can tell us what caused the War of 1812?” Mai Lin sat at her desk, staring ahead. She hoped the teacher wouldn’t call her name. They hadn’t studied the War of 1812 at her old school and she didn’t know the answer. “Alison?” the teacher asked instead. Oh, perfect, Mai Lin thought. Of course Alison would have the answer. She seemed to have all the answers. Alison was the most popular girl in school – always surrounded by millions of boyfriends, best friends, and others. She was like a brilliant sun. Mai Lin hadn’t made one or two friends of her own so far. Her old school was small and low-key, but a shy person like Mai Lin had a chance there. This new school, however, seemed as big as an airport to Mai Lin, and it seemed very hard to get around in it. She still got lost sometimes in the school. Mai Lin frowned (皱眉) as Alison answered the teacher’s question. Alison probably never got lost, Mai Lin thought to herself. You could probably put Alison down in the middle of a desert, and within five minutes she’d be able to tell you the best way to get home. History class finally ended, and Mai Lin headed for the gym. The class had been playing basketball. Alison, who was as tall and thin and attractive as a tree, was very good at it. Beside her, Mai Lin felt like a very small and foolish ant. Today, however, the gym teacher pointed to a thick rope hanging from the ceiling and said, “Everybody! You’re going to climb this rope today.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing the teacher’s words, Mai Lin smiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mai Lin stepped forward and got close to the rope. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: Hearing the teacher’s words, Mai Lin smiled. She knew what was coming. They’d done lots of physical fitness training at her old school and she was quite good at rope climbing. “Who’s first?” the teacher asked. “Alison?” To Mai Lin’s surprise, Alison turned as pale as the moon and shook her head. “She’s scared,” Mai Lin thought. “Perfect Alison was scared.” Suddenly Mai Lin heard her own voice saying, “I’ll do it.” Alison looked up at Mai Lin in great surprise, and all the other classmates seemed surprised, too. The teacher nodded and told Mai Lin to climb. Paragraph 2: Mai Lin stepped forward and got close to the rope. She appeared calm but was extremely excited. She climbed the rope very fast and reached the ceiling within what seemed a few seconds, effortlessly. As she reached the top, she glanced down at her fellow students below. Now it was Alison who appeared like a small ant. She saw Alison looking up, eyes wide with admiration. Mai Lin clung to the top of the rope for a moment longer and then headed down to join the class. Once she got on the ground, everybody cheered. Mai Lin knew she would be different from that day on. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了麦琳从一个不起眼的小学校转到一所新的很大的学校，看到优秀同学艾莉森的表现后，感到不自信。一天，体育课上老师要求大家攀爬绳子。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听到老师的话，麦琳笑了。”可知，第一段可描写麦琳找到了自己擅长的项目并勇敢表现自己。 ②由第二段首句内容“麦琳向前迈了一步，靠近了绳子。”可知，第二段可描写成功爬上绳子后，麦琳找回了自信。 2.续写线索：艾莉森感到害怕——麦琳毛遂自荐——成功爬上绳子——麦琳找回自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①攀登：climb/scale ②向前走：step forward/walk forward ③紧握不放：cling to/hold onto/grasp 情绪类 ①害怕的：scared/frightened ②吃惊的：surprised/shocked 【点睛】[高分句型1] She knew what was coming.(运用了what引导的宾语从句) [高分句型2] As she reached the top, she glanced down at her fellow students below.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 重庆市部分区2023-2024学年度第二学期期末联考 高一英语试题卷 注意事项： 1. 考试时间：120分钟，满分：150分。试题总页数：8页。 2. 所有题目必须在答题卡上作答，在试题卷、草稿纸上答题无效。 3. 需要填涂的地方，一律用2B铅笔涂满涂黑。需要书写的地方一律用0.5mm签字笔。 4. 答题前，务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 5. 考试结束后，将试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 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。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.

Using the address on the driver’s license (驾照) inside the purse, Peter drove to the house and knocked on the front door. The purse belonged to Eliana Martin a former roommate of Melina Marquez. Martin had not changed her address since her recent move, so the purse was brought to Marquez’s home. Marquez was not at home when Peter arrived. He left it with a relative at the house, and their dialogues were recorded by Marquez’s camera by chance. “I looked into the camera later, and I thought to myself “Oh my dear. He’s such a young kid. We need to find him and thank him,” recalled Marquez. She posted the video of Peter on the Internet and the Chula Vista community quickly went to work. “I woke up and I had a lot of messages like, ‘Oh is this you?’” Peter said. The ladies invited him to Marquez’s house so Martin could say thanks in person. After they knew the boy’s poor family, they also started a GoFundMe page in his honor. The online fundraiser has received 677 donations (捐赠), totaling $15,145. “It feels good. I appreciate it. I really do everything everybody’s doing,” Peter told NBC News. “My mom always told me since I was little to always do the right thing when nobody’s around.” “This is something that we really need. It’s good news, positive news,” smiled Melina Marquez. 4. Why could Peter Rodriquez find Marquez’s house? A. He called the police. B. He knew where Marquez’s relative lived. C.

C Travel is predicted to look extremely different in 2070. Take airports for example, paperwork will be a thing of the past. Instead of paper passports,your information will be stored in the cloud. This type of technology won’t just include what we are familiar with today——like fingerprints or face scans—but also your heartbeat, as everyone’s heartbeat is unique. There will be no need to check in. The facial recognition programme will instead be able to recognise you, match you with your booked flight and send messages to your phone as you walk through the airport without stopping. Your bags, especially the heavy ones, will be sent directly from your train or taxi to the right plane. And that taxi will not be like the ones we know today. People will be expected to travel to the airport--and around their holiday destinations-in eVTOLs, which refers to électric air taxis that can take off and land without a runway. As for the trouble of packing, 3D printers will provide perfect solutions. Simply provide your destination with your size using a body scan before you fly and, upon arrival, you will find a wardrobe(衣橱) filled with 3D-printed clothes. When you leave, these clothes will be recycled and. reprinted for the next tourist. Not only will this solve the problem of packing, but also make holiday fashion more environment-friendly. While the predictions might seem unbelievable now, you only have to look back 50 years to realize it’s all possible. Think back to 1973 when smartphones were just a wild dream. “Google” seemed like a made-up word then, and notebook computers were still almost years away from being invented. Similarly, when we look forward to the next 50 years, the possibilities for development in technology for travel are endless. 8. What can we learn about the check-in at the airport in 2070? A. You’ll have to carry your paper passports. B. It won’t need your heartbeat information. C. You must stop to check the phone for boarding. D. It is no longer needed because of the facial recognition programme. 9. When you get to the destination, . A. your bag will be sent to you by taxi B. a body scan will work out your size C the clothes of your size will be ready for you D. your packing may do harm to the environment 10. Why does the author mention 1973 in the last paragraph? A. To prove the predictions are possible. B. To show the inventions are necessary. C. To list the achievements of the year. D. To express the confidence for travel. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. A new type of air taxi.。 B. Prediction for future of travel. C. The advantage of 3D prints. D. The solution to future packing. D A Spanish project is attempting to use 3D-printed coral reefs to provide habitat for fish and protection for beaches and coastal communities at risk from rising seas and other damage. Coral reefs are decreasing globally, and some scientists say we could lose 70% - 90% of our reefs due to warming ocean waters. That has all kinds of serious influences because a quarter of the world’s fish live in and around reefs. Reefs are important protectors of coastal communities threatened by high waves, and they support the biodiversity (生物多样性). That led Nadia Fani and her co-founder Astrid Kramer to start Coastruction, a non-profit organization. “Even if you start on a small scale (规模)... a square kilometer already, it could have a great impact,” Fani says. “It could really protect a coast, a beach, or an area where there is a community and it needs protection because the sea level is rising.” Being able to use 3D printing is important, because you can match individual sites. Every location is different with different coral species. “It’s like everybody has a different house,” Fani says. “You can take into account habitat requirements of not just the coral but also the fish that live nearby. ” Their present technology can print various shapes. The result can be an amazingly natural-looking man-made rock with plenty of corners for both coral and fish to attach themselves and make homes. The Coastruction founders don’t think they can possibly meet the global demand, so their goal is to provide the tools — like the 3D printer — for local people and develop the technology to create the artificial (人造的) coral reefs by using cheap and locally-available materials. No high temperatures or chemical additives are required, and any loose powder or sand material not used in one print will be used in the next.

She wished she could do better. “Let’s review the material we learned in the last unit,” the history teacher said. “Who can tell us what caused the War of 1812?” Mai Lin sat at her desk, staring ahead. She hoped the teacher wouldn’t call her name. They hadn’t studied the War of 1812 at her old school and she didn’t know the answer. “Alison?” the teacher asked instead. Oh, perfect, Mai Lin thought. Of course Alison would have the answer. She seemed to have all the answers. Alison was the most popular girl in school – always surrounded by millions of boyfriends, best friends, and others. She was like a brilliant sun. Mai Lin hadn’t made one or two friends of her own so far. Her old school was small and low-key, but a shy person like Mai Lin had a chance there. This new school, however, seemed as big as an airport to Mai Lin, and it seemed very hard to get around in it. She still got lost sometimes in the school. Mai Lin frowned (皱眉) as Alison answered the teacher’s question. Alison probably never got lost, Mai Lin thought to herself. You could probably put Alison down in the middle of a desert, and within five minutes she’d be able to tell you the best way to get home. History class finally ended, and Mai Lin headed for the gym. The class had been playing basketball. Alison, who was as tall and thin and attractive as a tree, was very good at it. Beside her, Mai Lin felt like a very small and foolish ant. Today, however, the gym teacher pointed to a thick rope hanging from the ceiling and said, “Everybody! You’re going to climb this rope today.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing the teacher’s words, Mai Lin smiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mai Lin stepped forward and got close to the rope. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
