It had been my home station when I first lived in London in my 20s. When I stepped off the train and onto the platform, a strange thing happened. For a moment, I felt time collapse, and my feet automatically (自动地) picked up the way they’d followed every day for seven years. At that time, I couldn’t have told you whether I was 24 or 42. The girl from the past and the woman here now were one and the same. I felt her enthusiasm and sense of self-belief, realizing them as real and as a memory at the same time. When I came out of the station, my body was made to go left — to follow the path home — until my mind corrected it, turned me right, and sent me off into the day. At that moment I was very clear about what I was thinking, but it made me wonder about what it’s like to go back. When I stood at the station, however, I saw the advantage in looking back. I asked myself if my 24-year-old self would be proud of me today. Perhaps there would be something that she’d be excited about — the people I’ve worked with and the friends I’ve kept. Maybe that’s what she’d cherish, while I tried to explain to her the concepts of ‘cost-of-living’ and mortgage (按揭贷款). Looking back also allowed me to remember how big she dreamed and how enthusiastically she believed in things. I remembered her love of fun and how much she enjoyed a party. For a few days after, I found myself turning to Apple Music lists belonging to my 24-year-old self and dancing to them, timelines merging once again. Looking back gives me the energy to move forwards. 4. What do we know about the author in her 20s? A. She walked to work every day. B. She worked in the Tube station. C. She lived alone in a train station. D. She lived in London for seven years. 5. What does the underlined part “sent me off into the day” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Led me towards the light. B. Brought me back to reality. C. Made my dream a reality. D. Took me on the way home. 6. What would the author value if she could turn back to 24? A. Money. B. Workplace. C. Friendship. D. Education. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A 24-year-old Self Is Always with Me B. My Old Days in London Benefit My Life C. Double Selves Are My Best Self D. Recalling the Past Gives Me Energy C A new report has showed that the number of birds illegally trapped and killed in Cyprus increased to more than 400,000 in the autumn of 2023. The report, published by BirdLife Cyprus and supported by RSPB and CABS, details how the number of birds killed has increased by an estimated 90,000 to 435,000. Cyprus is a important stop-off point every autumn. Vast numbers of birds will stop here during their annual migration from Europe to Africa. Many birds touching down are illegally trapped and killed by criminal gangs (团伙), before being old to restaurants where they are eaten as an expensive local dish. Autumn is the main trapping season in Cyprus, as migrating birds have built up their fat. People who illegally eat these bids consider them to be of better quality at this time of year, because of this higher fat content. After returning from Africa in the spring, the birds will reduce most of their fat and are judged to be of lower quality. Since 2014, Cypriot law enforcement authorities (执法机构) and the anti-poaching unit (反偷猎小队) have worked with BirdLife Cyprus, the CABS and the RSPB, which has led to a huge drop in the number of traps found and birds killed. Last autumn, however, the work of the anti-poaching unit decreased. This is thought to be a significant factor behind the 2023 increase in numbers. “Our international premiership has shown that we can deal with this criminal activity together. However, last autumn shows that more still needs to be done,” says Mark Thomas, head of RSPB investigations. “We cannot allow the progress we’ve made to be undone and bird killings to return to the previous annoying levels. By working together, we can make this a thing of the past.” 8. What has been detailed in the report? A. How the number of killed birds increased. B. How the migrating birds are trapped and killed. C. How the anti-poaching unit worked with media. D. How many migrating birds have been trapped so far. 9. What can be inferred from paragraphs 2-3? A. Illegally eating birds is very popular in Cyprus. B. Birds migrate from Europe to Africa all year around. C. Birds returning from Africa reduce greatly in number. D. In Cyprus more birds are trapped in autumn than in spring. 10. What do Mark Thomas’s words mean? A. It’s impossible to control bird killing. B. Teaming up can be more effective. C. The anti-poaching unit did its best. D. More measures should be adopted. 11. What do you think of the bird conservation in Cyprus according to the text? A. It remains challenging. B. It is a model of success. C. It has promoted local tourism. D. It is well-organized. D Recently, an experimental pair of gloves has been invented. It isn’t fashionable or useful for keeping anyone’s hands warm. Instead, it serves a different purpose: teaching piano and other hands-on skills. MIT graduate student Yiyue Luo and her colleagues created these “smart gloves” using touch technology. Researchers used the gloves to record one pianist’s hand movements while playing a song. They then received and sent on those movements to a student through fingertip vibrations. This will help the learner build muscle memory and perform the piece with greater accuracy. “Hand-based movements like piano playing are difficult to record and transfer.” Luo says. “But with these gloves, we can track one person’s touch experience and share it with another person to improve their touch learning process.” When a piano teacher wearing the gloves repeatedly performed a tune, a machine-learning algorithm (算法) processed their movement on the keys and translated it into vibrations. Students wearing their own gloves then attempted to play the same tune, with the fingertip vibrations guiding them through proper movements. By the trials’ (试验) end, students who had practiced with the gloves could play more accurately than those who had not. “This type of learning is like when you’re first starting to ride a bike,” says engineer Marcia O’Malley. “You use the training wheels to get the feeling of properly riding the bike. Eventually you take them off and start to ride independently.” Playing piano is often just for fun, but O’Malley adds that, with an improved algorithm, the new glove technology can someday help to teach crucial practices such as surgeries. “When vibration is actually felt directly at the point of action, we can act and learn quicker and with that, there’s so much potential.” she says. 12. Who are the experimental gloves suitable for? A. Pupils learning skills from craftsmen. B. Performers planning shows for a theatre. C. Professors giving lecture to the students. D. Policemen asking criminals for information. 13. What is the advantage of the gloves? A. Aiding learners to build up muscle. B. Making touch learning process easier. C Improving the speed of piano playing. D. Teaching varieties of hand movements. 14. Why is the example of learning to ride a bike mentioned? A. To offer supporting evidence. B. To explain the type of learning. C. To show the differences. D. To suggest another possibility. 15. What is O’Malley’s attitude toward the new glove technology? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Approving. D. Unclear. 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。 SETTING A GOAL OF PAINTING You’ll find that having a clear goal when you go out painting will make you a better painter, faster. ____16____ The goals are as follows. Explore an area. ____17____. When in Scotland for the first time, I didn’t know what to paint.

On my Scotland trip, I became fond of a beautiful, ancient stone bridge and knew I wanted to make a big painting of it when I got home.

We had been in the same class through primary school, junior high and senior high. We had always spent time reading books in the library. We had been both the top students in our class. We had shared everything-our dreams, our fears, and our deepest secrets. She was the friend I cherished most in the world. Three months before our senior high graduation, we were told that the “Excellent Graduate” would be chosen from our class. Anna and I were absolutely the right ones. But only one of us would be there. In the weeks that came after, I became very aware of how I studied and how well I did in my work. I double-checked al my assignments and test scores carefully to make sure I didn’t miss anything. Ana also started working harder, staying up late to study in the library. The came the day of he evaluation (评选).Our teachers, aware of our friendship, offered words of comfort. “No matter which of you becomes an excellent graduate, I hope you will still be good friends.” they said. A week later, the announcement was made. I was named the “Excellent Graduate”. I felt really happy for a moment. Then I started to feel bad and worried about Anna. I thought she might be angry with me, but what surprised me was seeing deep sadness in her eyes that made me feel bad. Instead of sharing my joy, we fell into an awkward distance. It seemed like our friendship had been broken. In the following days, Anna’s sad eyes stayed with me. Yet, during the pain, a strong desire grew in me—to fix our broken friendship, to bring back the bond that had meant so much to me. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I started thinking about all the times Anna and I enjoyed together, and then an idea came to me. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of our graduation ceremony, I was expecting Anna’s presence. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 达州市2024年普通高中二年级春季期末监测 英语试题 本试卷四部分，共10页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项: 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考号用0.5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔填写在答题卡上, 将条形码贴在答题卡规定的位置上。 2. 选择题必须使用2B铅笔将答案标号填涂在答题卡上对应题目标号的位置上，非选择题用0.5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔书写在答题卡的对应框内，超出答题区书写的答案无效；在草稿纸、试题卷上的答案无效。 3. 考试结束后，将答题卡收回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话, 每段对话后有一个小题。从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个不同风格旅游项目。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据An Intro to Latin America部分中“Stubborn Mule’s new two-week Best of Guatemala family itinerary (行程) includes going boating on Lake Atitlán and a tour of visiting and learning the Mayan ruins at Tikal.”（Stubborn Mule的两周危地马拉最佳家庭行程包括在阿蒂特兰湖划船，参观和学习蒂卡尔的玛雅遗址。）可知，游客在危地马拉可以了解玛雅遗址。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ancient Treasures in Egypt部分中“Cairo’s Grand Egyptian Museum is expected to open in early 2024 after years of construction, bringing together nearly 5,000 artifacts (手工艺品) from Tutankhamun’s Tomb. Now, it’s the time for history fans to book a trip to Egypt.”（开罗的埃及大博物馆预计将于2024年初开业，汇集了图坦卡蒙墓中的近5000件文物。现在，是时候让历史迷们预订去埃及的旅行了。）可知，对于历史爱好者来说，Ancient Treasures in Egypt是最佳选择。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，本文介绍了四个不同风格的旅游项目。Scientific American是一本科学杂志，与旅游主题不符；All About Space更侧重于太空和天文学，也与旅游主题不符；Fast Company主要关注商业和创新，同样与旅游无关，而National Geographic是一本涉及地理、文化、自然和历史的综合性杂志，经常发布与旅游相关的文章，因此本文很可能出自该杂志。故选C项。 B Recently, I found myself back at the Tube station.

Recalling the Past Gives Me Energy 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者回到年轻时常坐的伦敦地铁站，瞬间被带回过去的生活轨迹。她感受到年轻时的激情与自信，思考着回到过去的意义。同时，她也反思现在的自己是否能让年轻时的自己感到骄傲，并发现回忆过去给了她前进的动力。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“It had been my home station when I first lived in London in my 20s.(当我最初20多岁住在伦敦时，这是我回家的站台)”和“For a moment, I felt time collapse, and my feet automatically (自动地) picked up the way they’d followed every day for seven years.(有那么一瞬间，我感到时间崩塌了，我的双脚自动走上了七年来每天走的路)” 可知，作者在20多岁时在伦敦住了七年。故选D项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线句上文“At that time, I couldn’t have told you whether I was 24 or 42. The girl from the past and the woman here now were one and the same.(当时，我无法告诉你我是24岁还是42岁。过去的那个女孩和现在的这个女人实际上是同一个人)”可知，作者回到年轻时常坐的伦敦地铁站，瞬间被带回过去的生活轨迹，已经分不清自己是过去24岁的那个女孩，还是现在42岁的这个女人。结合划线部分所在句“When I came out of the station, my body was made to go left — to follow the path home — until my mind corrected it, turned me right, and sent me off into the day.(当我走出车站时，我的身体不由自主地往左走——沿着回家的路——直到我的理智纠正了它，让我往右走，sent me off into the day)”中“my body was made to go left”和“my mind corrected it, turned me right”可推知，身体本能地想要向左走，因为那是过去七年里每天回家的路，但作者的意识纠正了这个方向，使她向右拐，回到现实。因此，划线部分“sent me off into the day”指的是让作者回到现实中。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“I asked myself if my 24-year-old self would be proud of me today. Perhaps there would be something that she’d be excited about — the people I’ve worked with and the friends I’ve kept. Maybe that’s what she’d cherish(我问自己，24岁的我是否会为今天的自己感到骄傲。也许有些事情会让她感到兴奋——我共事过的人和保持联系的朋友。也许那会是她所珍惜的)” 可知，如果作者能回到24岁，她会珍视的是与同事和朋友的关系，即友谊。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其结合最后一段中“Looking back also allowed me to remember how big she dreamed and how enthusiastically she believed in things. I remembered her love of fun and how much she enjoyed a party. For a few days after, I found myself turning to Apple Music lists belonging to my 24-year-old self and dancing to them, timelines merging once again. Looking back gives me the energy to move forwards.(回首往事，也让我想起她有多么大的梦想，多么热情地相信事情。我记得她对乐趣的热爱，她是多么喜欢聚会。在那之后的几天里，我发现自己打开了属于24岁自己的Apple Music列表，跟着它们跳舞，时间线再次重合。回首往事给了我前进的动力)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者回忆过去在伦敦生活的经历，并从中汲取能量，激励自己向前看。因此，“Recalling the Past Gives Me Energy(回忆过去给了我能量)”最符合文章主旨，是最合适的标题。故选D项。 C A new report has showed that the number of birds illegally trapped and killed in Cyprus increased to more than 400,000 in the autumn of 2023. The report, published by BirdLife Cyprus and supported by RSPB and CABS, details how the number of birds killed has increased by an estimated 90,000 to 435,000. Cyprus is a important stop-off point every autumn. Vast numbers of birds will stop here during their annual migration from Europe to Africa. Many birds touching down are illegally trapped and killed by criminal gangs (团伙), before being old to restaurants where they are eaten as an expensive local dish. Autumn is the main trapping season in Cyprus, as migrating birds have built up their fat. People who illegally eat these bids consider them to be of better quality at this time of year, because of this higher fat content. After returning from Africa in the spring, the birds will reduce most of their fat and are judged to be of lower quality. Since 2014, Cypriot law enforcement authorities (执法机构) and the anti-poaching unit (反偷猎小队) have worked with BirdLife Cyprus, the CABS and the RSPB, which has led to a huge drop in the number of traps found and birds killed. Last autumn, however, the work of the anti-poaching unit decreased. This is thought to be a significant factor behind the 2023 increase in numbers. “Our international premiership has shown that we can deal with this criminal activity together. However, last autumn shows that more still needs to be done,” says Mark Thomas, head of RSPB investigations. “We cannot allow the progress we’ve made to be undone and bird killings to return to the previous annoying levels. By working together, we can make this a thing of the past.” 8. What has been detailed in the report? A. How the number of killed birds increased. B. How the migrating birds are trapped and killed. C. How the anti-poaching unit worked with media. D. How many migrating birds have been trapped so far. 9. What can be inferred from paragraphs 2-3? A. Illegally eating birds is very popular in Cyprus. B. Birds migrate from Europe to Africa all year around. C. Birds returning from Africa reduce greatly in number. D. In Cyprus more birds are trapped in autumn than in spring. 10. What do Mark Thomas’s words mean? A. It’s impossible to control bird killing. B. Teaming up can be more effective. C. The anti-poaching unit did its best. D. More measures should be adopted. 11. What do you think of the bird conservation in Cyprus according to the text? A. It remains challenging. B. It is a model of success. C. It has promoted local tourism. D. It is well-organized. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道2023年秋季塞浦路斯非法捕杀鸟类数量激增至40多万只，主要是候鸟迁徙途中被犯罪团伙捕获后作为高价菜肴出售。尽管近年来执法力度加大，但去年秋季反偷猎工作减弱，导致捕猎数量回升。保护组织呼吁加强合作，阻止这一趋势。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The report, published by BirdLife Cyprus and supported by RSPB and CABS, details how the number of birds killed has increased by an estimated 90,000 to 435,000.(这份报告由塞浦路斯国际鸟盟发布，并得到了RSPB和CABS的支持。报告详细描述了被捕杀的鸟类数量是如何从9万只增加到43.5万只的)”可知，这份报告详细介绍了被杀鸟类的数量是如何增加的。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Cyprus is a important stop-off point every autumn. Vast numbers of birds will stop here during their annual migration from Europe to Africa. (每年秋天，塞浦路斯都是一个重要的中途停留点。大量的鸟类每年从欧洲迁徙到非洲时都会在这里停留)”和第三段“Autumn is the main trapping season in Cyprus, as migrating birds have built up their fat. People who illegally eat these bids consider them to be of better quality at this time of year, because of this higher fat content. After returning from Africa in the spring, the birds will reduce most of their fat and are judged to be of lower quality.(秋天是塞浦路斯主要的捕鸟季节，因为候鸟已经积累了脂肪。非法食用这些鸟的人认为在一年中的这个时候它们的质量更好，因为它们的脂肪含量更高。春天从非洲回来后，这些鸟会减少大部分脂肪，被认为是质量较低的)”可知，秋天，大量迁徙的鸟类都会在塞浦路斯停留，秋天成了塞浦路斯主要的捕鸟季节。同时食鸟的人认为秋天之鸟质量远胜于春天之鸟。由此推知，在塞浦路斯，秋天被诱捕的鸟比春天多。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Mark Thomas的话“Our international partnership has shown that we can deal with this criminal activity together. However, last autumn shows that more still needs to be done(我们的国际伙伴关系表明，我们可以共同对付这一犯罪活动。然而，去年秋天的情况表明，仍有更多工作要做)”和“We cannot allow the progress we’ve made to be undone and bird killings to return to the previous annoying levels. By working together, we can make this a thing of the past. (我们不能让我们所取得的进展付之一篑，不能让杀鸟行为回到之前恼人的水平。通过共同努力，我们可以让这件事成为过去)”可知，Mark Thomas认为通过国际合作可以共同应对这种犯罪活动，但还需要做更多的工作。由此推知，Mark Thomas的意思是应该采取更多措施来加强合作，更有效地打击非法捕鸟行为。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Last autumn, however, the work of the anti-poaching unit decreased. This is thought to be a significant factor behind the 2023 increase in numbers.(然而，去年秋天，反偷猎部门的工作减少了。这被认为是2023年数量增加背后的一个重要因素)”和“Our international premiership has shown that we can deal with this criminal activity together. However, last autumn shows that more still needs to be done(我们的国际伙伴关系表明，我们可以共同对付这一犯罪活动。然而，去年秋天的情况表明，仍有更多工作要做)”的描述可知，虽然执法机构和反偷猎小队已经取得了很大的进展，但是反偷猎小队的工作量在减少，去年鸟类被捕杀的数量在增加，还需要做更多的工作来保护鸟类。所以，我们可以认为塞浦路斯的鸟类保护工作仍然充满挑战。故选A项。 D Recently, an experimental pair of gloves has been invented. It isn’t fashionable or useful for keeping anyone’s hands warm. Instead, it serves a different purpose: teaching piano and other hands-on skills. MIT graduate student Yiyue Luo and her colleagues created these “smart gloves” using touch technology. Researchers used the gloves to record one pianist’s hand movements while playing a song. They then received and sent on those movements to a student through fingertip vibrations. This will help the learner build muscle memory and perform the piece with greater accuracy. “Hand-based movements like piano playing are difficult to record and transfer.” Luo says. “But with these gloves, we can track one person’s touch experience and share it with another person to improve their touch learning process.” When a piano teacher wearing the gloves repeatedly performed a tune, a machine-learning algorithm (算法) processed their movement on the keys and translated it into vibrations. Students wearing their own gloves then attempted to play the same tune, with the fingertip vibrations guiding them through proper movements. By the trials’ (试验) end, students who had practiced with the gloves could play more accurately than those who had not. “This type of learning is like when you’re first starting to ride a bike,” says engineer Marcia O’Malley. “You use the training wheels to get the feeling of properly riding the bike. Eventually you take them off and start to ride independently.” Playing piano is often just for fun, but O’Malley adds that, with an improved algorithm, the new glove technology can someday help to teach crucial practices such as surgeries. “When vibration is actually felt directly at the point of action, we can act and learn quicker and with that, there’s so much potential.” she says. 12. Who are the experimental gloves suitable for? A. Pupils learning skills from craftsmen. B. Performers planning shows for a theatre. C. Professors giving lecture to the students. D. Policemen asking criminals for information. 13. What is the advantage of the gloves? A. Aiding learners to build up muscle. B. Making touch learning process easier. C. Improving the speed of piano playing. D. Teaching varieties of hand movements. 14. Why is the example of learning to ride a bike mentioned? A. To offer supporting evidence. B. To explain the type of learning. C. To show the differences. D. To suggest another possibility. 15. What is O’Malley’s attitude toward the new glove technology? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Approving. D. Unclear. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了由麻省理工学院研究生罗一悦及其团队发明的“智能手套”。该手套利用触控技术，通过记录并传输钢琴家的手部动作，帮助学习者建立肌肉记忆，提高演奏准确性。这项技术未来还可能应用于教学手术等关键实践领域。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Recently, an experimental pair of gloves has been invented. It isn’t fashionable or useful for keeping anyone’s hands warm. Instead, it serves a different purpose: teaching piano and other hands-on skills.(最近，一副实验性的手套被发明出来。它既不时尚，也不实用，不能给任何人的手保暖。相反，它有一个不同的用途：教授钢琴和其他动手技能)”和第三段中“Students wearing their own gloves then attempted to play the same tune, with the fingertip vibrations guiding them through proper movements.(然后，学生们戴上自己的手套，试着弹奏同样的曲子，指尖的振动引导他们做出正确的动作)”可知，这种实验性手套可用于钢琴和其他需要动手技能的教学。因此，这种实验性手套适合正在从工匠那里学习技能的学生，因为这种学习与动手技能相关。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This will help the learner build muscle memory and perform the piece with greater accuracy.(这将有助于学习者建立肌肉记忆，并更准确地演奏乐曲)”和““Hand-based movements like piano playing are difficult to record and transfer.” Luo says. “But with these gloves, we can track one person’s touch experience and share it with another person to improve their touch learning process.”(“像钢琴演奏这样的手部动作很难记录和转移。”罗说。“但有了这种手套，我们可以追踪一个人的触摸体验，并与另一个人分享，以改善他们的触摸学习过程。”)”可知，这种手套可以使钢琴学习过程变得更加容易。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“By the trials’ (试验) end, students who had practiced with the gloves could play more accurately than those who had not. “This type of learning is like when you’re first starting to ride a bike,” says engineer Marcia O’Malley. “You use the training wheels to get the feeling of properly riding the bike. Eventually you take them off and start to ride independently.”(实验结束时，戴手套练习的学生比不戴手套的学生弹奏得更准确。“这种学习方式就像你第一次开始骑自行车一样，”工程师玛西娅·奥马利说。“你使用辅助轮来获得正确骑自行车的感觉。最终你会把它们取下来，开始独立骑行。”)”可知，段中把使用辅助轮学习骑自行车与使用手套学习弹钢琴进行类比，是为了解释手套辅助这一新的学习类型。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段O’Malley的话“When vibration is actually felt directly at the point of action, we can act and learn quicker and with that, there’s so much potential.(当振动在行动点上被直接感受到时，我们可以更快地行动和学习，有了它，就有了这么大的潜力)”可以推知，O’Malley认为这种新型手套辅助学习技术是有效果的，持赞成态度。故选C项。 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。 SETTING A GOAL OF PAINTING You’ll find that having a clear goal when you go out painting will make you a better painter, faster. ____16____ The goals are as follows. Explore an area. ____17____. When in Scotland for the first time, I didn’t know what to paint. So, rather than making finished paintings, I focused on just sketching (素描) the things that were new to me. It’s a relaxing approach to painting, and it helps you get familiar with a strange land. ____18____. It’s like exploring, but with more focus. On my Scotland trip, I became fond of a beautiful, ancient stone bridge and knew I wanted to make a big painting of it when I got home. I collected color studies in gouache (水粉画), pencil sketches and photos. Once home, where I had all the tools and materials ready, I was able to create that larger work. Work on a skill or problem. This is usually a workshop goal, but you can do it on your own. If you don’t understand color temperature, consider making color studies in different temperature. ____19____: Is it true that white in shadow is darker than black in light? See for yourself by observing and painting such a situation. Create a finished painting. This can be a difficult task compared to the others. You have to be at the top of your game, employing good design, good color and good edge treatment. I usually do this for open-air contests or when I’m practicing for one. Many artists, however, often enjoy bringing a painting fully to completion at the scene. ____20____ A. Have a good trip B. Gather reference materials C. Before this you’d better make a plan D. This is what I do if I’m in unfamiliar area E. Or you may have a question you want to answer F. It takes experience, time and energy and plenty of coffee G Consider having one of four simple goals before heading out 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. B 19. E 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了设定明确的绘画目标对于提高绘画技能和速度的重要性。 【16题详解】 上文“You’ll find that having a clear goal when you go out painting will make you a better painter, faster.(你会发现，当你外出绘画时有一个明确的目标会让你更快地成为一个更好的画家)”提出带着明确的目标去画画会让你成为一个更好的画家，进步更快，G项“Consider having one of four simple goals before heading out (在出发之前，请考虑以下四个简单目标中的一个)”承接上文，提出有四个可以考虑的目标供选择，与下文“The goals are as follows.(这些目标如下)”一起引出后文对这四个目标的详细介绍，上下文语意连贯。故选G。 【17题详解】 下文“When in Scotland for the first time, I didn’t know what to paint.

It’s a relaxing approach to painting, and it helps you get familiar with a strange land.(第一次来苏格兰时，我不知道该画什么。因此，我并没有创作成品画，而是专注于素描那些对我来说是新鲜事物的东西。这是一种轻松的绘画方式，能帮助你熟悉陌生的地方)”详细描述了作者自己在苏格兰时的画画经历：用素描对陌生的地方进行探索，这是对D项“This is what I do if I’m in unfamiliar area(这是我在不熟悉的地方所做的)”中“what I do if I’m in unfamiliar area”的阐述，即在不熟悉的地方进行探索，照应段首主题句“Explore an area. (探索一个地方)”。故选D。 【18题详解】 设空句是段首主题句。根据下文“It’s like exploring, but with more focus. On my Scotland trip, I became fond of a beautiful, ancient stone bridge and knew I wanted to make a big painting of it when I got home. I collected color studies in gouache (水粉画), pencil sketches and photos.

We had been in the same class through primary school, junior high and senior high. We had always spent time reading books in the library. We had been both the top students in our class. We had shared everything-our dreams, our fears, and our deepest secrets. She was the friend I cherished most in the world. Three months before our senior high graduation, we were told that the “Excellent Graduate” would be chosen from our class. Anna and I were absolutely the right ones. But only one of us would be there. In the weeks that came after, I became very aware of how I studied and how well I did in my work. I double-checked al my assignments and test scores carefully to make sure I didn’t miss anything. Ana also started working harder, staying up late to study in the library. The came the day of he evaluation (评选).Our teachers, aware of our friendship, offered words of comfort. “No matter which of you becomes an excellent graduate, I hope you will still be good friends.” they said. A week later, the announcement was made. I was named the “Excellent Graduate”. I felt really happy for a moment. Then I started to feel bad and worried about Anna. I thought she might be angry with me, but what surprised me was seeing deep sadness in her eyes that made me feel bad. Instead of sharing my joy, we fell into an awkward distance.

On the day of our graduation ceremony, I was expecting Anna’s presence.With a mix of nervousness and anticipation. As I walked towards the stage to receive my award, my eyes scanned the audience, searching for her familiar face. To my relief, there she was, sitting in the front row, her eyes fixed on me with a soft smile. In my speech, I acknowledged the importance of friendship and the role it played in shaping us into the individuals we were today. I thanked Anna for being my constant companion and for the countless memories we had shared.
