Here is a look at some of the top products presented at CES 2022. All-in-one communication Technology company Anker announced the launch of an “all-in-one” device designed to improve communications for employees working from home. The Anker Work B600 sits on top of the computer display like a traditional webcam. But it combines several elements of communication into one device that includes a camera, speaker, microphone and a light. AirSelfie camera Electronics maker AirSelfie launched its latest self-flying camera designed to take “selfie” pictures. The new device, called Air Pix, is a small, light camera that flies through the air and captures high-quality photographs and video. Air Pix can fly, frame and take pictures all by itself before landing back on the user’s hand. Labrador’s assistive robot Robot maker Labrador announced its Retriever robot designed to hold things and, as its name suggests, also retrieve (找回) things. The robot can be controlled by voice commands or from an app on a phone. It can also be programmed based on an exact map of a users home. The Retriever is designed “to serve as an extra pair of hands and lighten the load of everyday tasks in the home”. Self-driving tractor American-based farm equipment manufacturer John Deere presented a fully self-driving tractor equipped with six different cameras and a series of sensors to guide the tractor through the fields. Farmers can control the vehicle and see the tractor’s progress in real-time through a mobile device which is to help farmers do more work with less equipment and people. The company noted that such machines can help improve farming methods as the world’s population grows and food demand is expected to rise 50 percent by 2050. 1. Which operator’s product will teleworking staff be most interested in? A. Anker B. Airselfie C. Labrador D. John Deere 2. What kind of product can effectively help the elderly with mobility difficulties? A. The “all-in-one”device. B. Self-flying camera. C. Retriever robot D. The fully self-driving tractor. 3. What impact will self-driving tractors have on agriculture in the future? A. Improving products quality. B. Promoting agricultural modernization. C. Increasing agricultural investment. D. Reducing the environmental pollution. B A donation by a famous writer has helped start an effort, called the United States of Readers, to help poor children read more books. The classroom programme is being launched by Scholastic Book Clubs with a donation of $1.5 million from the writer James Patterson. Scholastic announced the programme recently, aiming to bring books to 32,000 poor children who are in kindergarten to eighth grade. Judy Newman, president of Scholastic Book Clubs, said that in many communities people don’t have enough money to buy books. So her company “needed to come up with an alternative to our tried-and-true model, because every child needs to be able to choose and own books, and see themselves as a reader!” Scholastic is a large publisher of books for children and educational materials. Its goal is to get books into schools to increase literacy. The company has publishing rights in the U.S. for books like the Harry Potter and Hunger Games series. A gift from Patterson helped start the new programme. He is credited with selling millions of books. He has already donated more than $10 million to teachers and students through Scholastic. He said that he has supported literacy for many years. He believes reading skills are important for the country. “In many cases, kids simply need access to books— and especially books they want to read— to fall in love with reading, characters, and stories.” Patterson added that the programme “will bring books to those schools and communities that need them the most, and ones that we haven’t served before.” Scholastic describes the programme on its website. It says the United States of Reader programme targets children in schools serving poor communities. The company said it has chosen a limited number of schools to take part this year but hopes to expand the programme in the coming years. 4. Who of the following is the target of the United States of Readers? A. Teenagers who like literature very much. B. Children from less developed countries. C. Schools and communities that have worked together before. D. Children in urgent need of books in lower grades in backward areas. 5. In Judy Newman’s opinion, what is the main problem to be solved by the future model? A. Attacting more donated books. B. Expanding the number of books. C. Meeting children’s personalized needs. D. Developing students’ reading ability. 6. What is the goal of Scholastic Book Clubs? A. To translate foreign works. B. To help students promote literacy. C. To explore new reading patterns. D. To recommend excellent children’s writers. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To entertain poor children. B. To advertise for new books. C. To introduce a new reading programme. D. To criticize the traditional teaching model. C In English, a shadow can also be considered a weak form of ourselves. So, when someone is a weaker version of what they used to be, we can say they are a “shadow of their former self”. On the other hand, a person who is “larger than life” casts a big shadow. In this case, the shadow is not from their actual bodies but from their personality and successes. To “cast” in this case means to send something out or forward. Children of successful people often have problems. They “live in the shadow” of their parents and can feel not successful by comparison. We could also say that the successes of the parents “cast a shadow” over the lives of the children. Something else that can cast a shadow is our sins— actions considered to be bad. Here is another expression “old sins cast long shadows”. Think about your shadow on a sunny day. The shadow you cast can be long and far-reaching. The same can be said for our past mistakes and sins. They can reach far into the future. They affect our present-day situation. So, the saving “old sins cast long shadows” means that the wrong things we do early in our lives can have long term effects. And often, the sins of one person comes back to cause them great problems. In one mystery, a jewel thief double-crossed her partner. She kept the jewels they stole together for herself. She changed her name and moved to a quiet English village. She thought she had gotten away with it. But her partner in crime found her... and eventually so did the police. In the end, they were both arrested. When the police came to take the jewel thief away, she said, “How did you find me? My crime was so long ago,” The detective answered, “Old sins cast long shadows.” “Old sins cast long shadows” also can be used in another way. It can be used to talk about other people’s sins and how they affect us. It means that sometimes people suffer from the sins of others. 8. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. Parents should be more demanding of their children B. Parents should set a successful example for their children. C. The success of children depends on the success of their parents. D. Successful parents should pay attention to protecting their children’s self-confidence. 9. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4? A. Past mistakes influence the present and future. B. Everyone has old sins and mistakes. C. We must avoid making mistakes. D. Other people’s sins may affect us. 10. Which is close to the underlined word “double-crossed” in paragraph 5? A. Committed. B. Cheated. C. Murdered. D. Encouraged. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Life in the Shadow B. The Sins Behind the Shadow C. Explore the Formation of Shadow D. Talking About Our Shadow D Batik is a traditional Indonesian coloring method used to make designs and drawings, usually on cloth and finished textiles. Batik makers use dyes— colors added to cloth and other materials— to create the colorful designs. In central Indonesia, many batik makers are using natural dyes instead of manufactured ones. The natural dyes used come from mangrove forests that grow along the coast. The trees grow in salty water on a complex system of tall roots. Mangrove forests serve an important purpose. They provide a barrier against destructive (破坏性的) ocean waves called tsunamis. They also are important to water life like fish and crabs. And the forests are more effective in taking in carbon dioxide gas, a gas linked to climate change, than rainforests or similar environments. Erwin Ardli is a mangrove ecologist at Indonesia’s Jenderal Soedirman University. He says the natural dyes may not be as bright as manufactured ones. But they are better for the environment. Ardli said, “We’ve seen the interest for natural dyes increasing, and especially for middle-to upper-class people, they seem proud to wear clothes using these natural dyes rather than synthetic (合成) ones.” Iiting Budiarti, who owns an art gallery that shows Batik designs, agreed with Ardli, adding that objects with natural dyes can cost two or three times more than the synthetic ones. Forty-eight-year-old Sodikin is a batik maker. Over the past four years, he and his group of batik makers have changed from using chemical materials for dyes to mangrove-based products. The change has reduced their costs and helped the environment. Harvesting involves gathering a handful of what looks like string beans-seeds within a covering. Sodikin then takes the mangrove fruit home to make natural dye from them. “We use natural materials so as to preserve the mangrove forest at the same time,” Sodikin said, as he processed dried fruits before boiling them to extract the colour for use as a dye. “We do not cut down the trees,” he added, “and we only take fruits or leaves that have fallen.” 12. Where do the natural dyes used by Indonesian batik manufacturers come from? A Some string beans. B Salty water. C. The roots of coastal trees. D. Mature seeds or leaves of mangrove forests. 13. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage about the role of mangrove forests? A. Resisting harmful ocean waves. B. Preventing carbon dioxide emissions better. C. Providing more high-quality wood products. D. Providing a growth environment for marine organisms. 14. What does paragraph 4 focus on? A. The development trend of Batik. B People’s attitude towards synthetic dyes. C. Advantages and disadvantages of natural dyes. D. The relationship between natural dyes and people’s identity. 15. Where is this text most likely from? A. A biology textbook. B. A tourist guide to central Indonesia. C. A report concerning traditional culture. D. An assessment report on ecological balance. 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。 Ways to Cheer Up a Colleague(同事) The difference between success and failure is a great team. ____16____ What should you do if your colleague is stressing about a deadline, going through a breakup?

At her old school, she spent recess climbing the monkey bars and sharing secrets with her friends. Now she sat in the corner of the field and watched the other kids play without her. As she cleared her table, Priya noticed a box of sidewalk chalk sitting on the counter by the window. Then she took her usual place at the end of the recess line. While she and her classmates filed through the halls and out into the yard, Priya thought about how she and her mother used to draw chalk patterns on the long driveway leading up to their old apartment building. The patterns were called rangoli, and they looked like stars and roses. Priya’s mother said that the drawings were to welcome guests to their home. Priya missed the early mornings she and her mother would spend drawing colourful patterns. Priya walked over to the basketball court and sat on the hot pavement (路面). She pulled the box out of her pocket and took out a bright red piece of chalk and began drawing the rangoli patterns she loved best. She drew flowers with huge petals (花瓣) and stars with eight points. “That’s pretty,” a voice said. She turned around and saw that Enrique, a boy in her class, was watching her. “It’s called rangoli,” she said. “They do this in India, where my parents are from.” “You know what that reminds me of?” he asked, kneeling down beside her. “The floor of my grandmother’s house in Mexico has tiles (瓷砖) that have designs like that.” “What do you mean?” Priya asked. “Hand me a piece of chalk,” Enrique said. “I’ll show you.” Enrique sat down on the pavement and began to draw. He used green, orange, and yellow chalk to draw flowers that were more detailed than Priya’s, but still had huge, curvy (弯曲的) petals. Then he drew circles inside circles, and surrounded them with small diamonds. Priya kept drawing too. 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。 “What are you guys doing?” a voice asked. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Their classmates began to come over to see what was happening. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1~5 ABCAC 6~10 CBABA 11~15 BBACA 16~20 ABBCC 2023~2024学年下学期高二年级3月月考 英语试题 全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3.选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑；非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答；字体工整，笔迹清楚。 4.考试结束后，请将试卷和答题卡一并上交。 5.本卷主要考查内容：北师大版必修第一册～选择性必修第二册。 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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Except on the rugs, the shapes are bigger, and aren’t as curly.” “Show us,” said Enrique, handing her a piece of chalk. Farah took the chalk and began drawing. She drew shapes that were full of straight lines and bold colours. Ms. Lopez, Priya’s teacher, said, “That’s beautiful!” Priya, Enrique and Farah stood up and looked at what they had done. The pavement was covered in bright colours and shapes: triangles, circles, squares and diamonds, all mixed together. Their classmates began to come over to see what was happening. “It looks like a universe, with lots of planets and stars,” said Lily. “It looks like a coral reef full of tropical fish,” said Jasper. “What do you think it looks like, Priya?” said Enrique. Priya looked at Enrique and Farah. Their knees, elbows, and fingers were covered in red, yellow, green and blue chalk dust. Priya smiled and said, “It looks like home welcoming guests to it.” The whole room was filled with laughter, and children’s creativity was endless. 听力1~5 ABCAC 6~10 CBABA 11~15 BBACA 16~20 ABBCC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
