The route is well guided, with plenty of picnic spots and a well appointed camp site. Karhunkierros Trall, Finland Finnish Lapland is well-known as a winter destination, with magical aurora borealis (极光) and an amazing ancient Sami culture. It’s also home to the 82-kilometer Karhunkierros Trail, the most well-known long-distance walk in Finland. The path begins in Hautajarvi village in Lapland’s Salla and ends at the Rukatunturi Fell in Kuusamo, taking four days. King Charles III England Coastal Path, England Covering an area of 4, 300 kilometers, the England Coastal Path is a lifetime’s attempt for those who wish to cover every step. And it can be easily broken down into areas, with northwest, northeast, east, southeast and southwest regions to explore. Walking around the coast of Cornwall will leave anyone energetic. Slovenian Mountain Trail, Slovenia It’s no surprise that the Slovenia Mountain Trail has become so popular. This attractive trail covering some 616 kilometers runs from Maribor in the country’s northeast, all the way to Ankaran. And while doing it all together over 28 days might seem extreme, it can be broken into smaller regions. There are paths through the ancient forests and wetlands of the Pohorje Hills or across the Julian Alos. 1. Which trail covers the shortest distance? A. Hyssna Trail. B. Karhunkierros Trail. C. King Charles III England Coastal Path D. Slovenian Mountain Trail. 2. What can be done along the trail of Finland? A. Going on a bus tour. B. Hiking around the coast. C. Admiring the Sami culture. D.

Born in a family in Jingdezhen deeply rooted in the porcelain field, Lyu spent her childhood playing with clay (黏土) everyday. While studying international business in the UK, Lyu found that many foreign museums showed Chinese porcelain. “Seeing those pieces made me really want to preserve this tradition. It’s a significant part of Chinese culture, reflecting the wisdom of several generations of Chinese,” she said.

Due to the difficult y with its production process, only a limited number of Ling long porcelain pieces have survived overtime When graduating in 2014 at the age of 21, Lyu made the unusual choice to give up further education and profitable offers from foreign companies. Instead, s here fumed to her roots, learning the art of Ling long porcelain from other artisans for more than a decade. This hands-on experience allowed her to develop a deep understanding of the professional practices. Lyu also observed arising fascination among young individuals with traditional decorative arts overtime. “I believe it’s important for cultural heritage to reach every household. My intention is to change porcelain into daily things, making it possible for more people to enjoy the beauty of this cultural heritage at an affordable price,” she said. Beyond combining cultural heritage with the daily lives of young people, Lyu has even greater goals. “I aim to create something absolutely new for international audiences, drawing global attention to Jingdezhen’s Ling long porcelain and stressing its richness and diversity. I’m confident I can achieve this,” she said. 4. What can be learned about Lyu Yating? A. She founded an international business. B. She studied Ling long porcelain in the UK. C.

It’s a significant part of Chinese culture, reflecting the wisdom of several generations of Chinese,” she said.(她说：“看到这些作品，我真的很想保留这一传统。这是中国文化的重要组成部分，反映了几代中国人的智慧。”)”以及第四段“When graduating in 2014 at the age of 21, Lyu made the unusual choice to give up further education and profitable offers from foreign companies. Instead, s here fumed to her roots, learning the art of Ling long porcelain from other artisans for more than a decade.(2014年21岁的吕毕业时，做出了一个不同寻常的选择，放弃了继续教育和去外国公司的赚钱的机会。相反，她在这里发愤图强，向其他工匠学习了十多年的玲珑瓷器艺术)”可知，吕雅婷回到老家学习玲珑瓷器艺术，是为了保留这一传统。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Lyu also observed arising fascination among young individuals with traditional decorative arts overtime.(吕还观察到年轻人对传统装饰艺术的兴趣与日俱增)”可知，现在的年轻人对传统装饰艺术越来越有兴趣，可推知，他们认为传统装饰艺术是有吸引力的。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Lyu Yating, a young artisan (工匠) from Jingdezhen, is making great efforts to create Ling long porcelain (瓷器), a unique type of porcelain from Jingdezhen, often referred to as the “city of porcelain” in East China’s Jiangxi province.(来自景德镇的年轻工匠吕雅婷正在努力创作玲珑瓷，这是通常被称为来自中国东部江西省的“瓷都”的景德镇的一种独特的瓷器)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了来自景德镇的年轻工匠吕雅婷正在努力创作玲珑瓷。故选B。 C Elephants are among the few wild animals to build strong social al connections of companionship, friendship and family. They are able to recognize not only their own mothers, calves (幼崽), brothers and sisters but also their grandmothers, aunts, cousins and nieces. They know elephants they’ve interacted within the past, and have been observed to build particular friendships with unrelated elephants. These features partly result from the way that elephants live. “Herds” are very small units a group of three or four closely related female elephants plus their calves, who live and travel together for all their lives. Sometimes, though, these herds join up with other herds, living, feeding playing and travelling together. These groups almost always go back into their basic family units in the end, but if they come across each other again they will express recognition and love. Like all mammals (哺乳动物), elephant communicate a great deal through body language. Love is often expressed by crossing or “hugging” their long noses, usually between close relatives and friends who have travelled in the same herd for a long time. And much physical communication takes place with the ends of elephants’ noses — they use these to comfort and reassure each other, to greet friends, and to recognize the efforts of a hard-working mother or the birth of new calves. When a member of the herd is close to death, the whole herd will stop moving and stay resting in one small area for a time. Once the elderly or sick elephant passes away, they will stay on for a few more days — gathering around the dead body, and seeming to make aloud high sad sound for their companion that has passed away. 8. What is special about elephants according to paragraph 1? A. They can identify various species. B. They live independently in most cases. C. They tend to establish social networks. D. They seldom interact with unrelated ones. 9. What do elephants do after joining up with other herds? A. Feed the other herds. B. End up in their original herds. C. Give birth to new calves. D. Live together for all their lives. 10. What does the underlined word “reassure” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Make fun of. B. Take control of. C. Give confidence to. D. Turn a blind eye to. 11. What’s a herd’s reaction to the death of a member? A. Letting out a faint sound. B. Moving forward in small groups. C Crossing or hugging their long noses. D. Gathering around in memory of the companion. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了大象是少数能够建立牢固的同伴、友谊和家庭社会联系的野生动物之一。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Elephants are among the few wild animals to build strong social al connections of companionship, friendship and family.(大象是少数能够建立牢固的同伴、友谊和家庭社会联系的野生动物之一。)”可知，大象的特别之处在于它们倾向于建立社交网络。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“ “Herds” are very small units a group of three or four closely related female elephants plus their calves, who live and travel together for all their lives. Sometimes, though, these herds join up with other herds, living, feeding playing and travelling together. These groups almost always go back into their basic family units in the end, but if they come across each other again they will express recognition and love.(“象群”是一个由三四头关系密切的母象和它们的幼象组成的小群体，它们一生都生活在一起，一起旅行。不过，有时这些象群会与其他象群合并，一起生活、觅食、玩耍和旅行。这些群体最终几乎总是会回到它们的基本家庭单位，但如果它们再次相遇，它们会表达认可和爱。)”可知，大象加入其他象群后会最后会回到原来的象群。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Love is often expressed by crossing or “hugging” their long noses, usually between close relatives and friends who have travelled in the same herd for a long time. And much physical communication takes place with the ends of elephants’ noses—they use these to comfort and(大象通常通过交叉或“拥抱”长鼻子来表达爱意，通常是近亲和长期在同一群中旅行的朋友之间。大象的许多身体交流都是通过鼻子的末端进行的——它们用鼻子来安慰和)”可知，大象用鼻子来表达爱意，由此可推知，划线单词与前面单词comfort色彩一样，即用鼻子来互相安慰，鼓励，以此来表达爱意，划线单词意为“鼓励”，故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When a member of the herd is close to death, the whole herd will stop moving and stay resting in one small area for a time. Once the elderly or sick elephant passes away, they will stay on for a few more days—gathering around the dead body, and seeming to make aloud high sad sound for their companion that has passed away.(当象群中的一头大象濒临死亡时，整个象群就会停止移动，在一小块区域内休息一段时间。当年老或患病的大象去世时，它们会再停留几天——聚集在尸体周围，似乎在为死去的同伴发出高亢悲伤的声音。)”可知，当有成员死亡后，大象会聚集在一起以纪念同伴。故选D。 D As Alexandria Country Day School’s sixth-graders created small 3D-printed villages to deal with homelessness, they learned lessons beyond technology (科技). The project which was inspired by life-size 3D-printed homes built by a Texas-based technology company, aimed to make housing accessible for everyone. Using inexpensive materials the students built strong homes in just a few days. 11-year-old Salwa Seman and Zoe Mandel, found creating settings challenging but worthwhile. “If the temperature of the printer is too hot or cold, or if the printed walls are tooth in, the constructions might fail,” said Salwa Seman. “You learn from your mistakes and make adaptations,” said Zoe Mandel. The tech-focused project quickly developed into “an exercise in understanding, creation, and partnership to bring about lasting change,” said science teacher Alison McDonald. “When most people think of helping the homeless, they think of food and clothing,” said Juliet Galicia, 11. While necessary, those are solutions only for the moment. Even housing alone is not a full answer. “We wanted to include other things that would make it feel more like a real community,” said Luke Wazorko, 11. A community garden, a place to raise chickens, a stadium for shared events, bus stops for access to jobs, and service for Wi-Fi and cellphones to help with job searches were important features offered to formerly unhoused residents. “They get it!” said Amber Fogarty, president of a nonprofit organization helping homelessness in Austin. “The biggest reason for long-term homelessness is a serious lack in family relationships,” she said. “Housing alone will never solve homelessness, but community will People need a place where they are known, cared and loved.” 12. What is the aim of the project on 3D-printed villages? A. To raise money for the homeless. B. To win a competition on 3D printing. C. To teach students advanced technology. D. To provide accommodation for the homeless. 13. What lesson does Salwa and Zoe’s experience tell us? A. Courage contributes to success. B. Challenges help us progress. C. Teamwork ensures glory. D. Well begun is half done. 14. According to the text, how can homelessness be fully solved? A. By donating food and clothing. B. By providing high-tech shelters. C. By building open gardening space. D. By creating a supportive environment. 15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Future of Housing: Tech Giants’ Role B. Modem Architecture: a Long Way to Go C. A Common Dream: Story of City Planning D. A Shared Community: Young Minds at Work 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了11 岁的 Salwa Seman 和 Zoe Mandel 创建了 3D 打印的小型村庄来解决无家可归问题，他们致力于建立一个共享社区。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As Alexandria Country Day School’s sixth-graders created small 3D-printed villages to deal with homelessness, they learned lessons beyond technology ( 科技).(亚历山大乡村走读学校的六年级学生创建了 3D 打印的小型村庄来解决无家可归问题，他们学到了技术以外的经验)”可知，3D 打印村庄项目的目的是为无家可归者提供住宿。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“11-year-old Salwa Seman and Zoe Mandel, found creating settings challenging but worthwhile. “If the temperature of the printer is too hot or cold, or if the printed walls are tooth in, the constructions might fail,” said Salwa Seman. “You learn from your mistakes and make adaptations,” said Zoe Mandel.(11 岁的 Salwa Seman 和 Zoe Mandel 发现创建场景很有挑战性，但很有价值。“如果打印机的温度太高或太低，或者打印的墙壁凹陷，结构可能会失败，”Salwa Seman 说。“你可以从错误中吸取教训并做出调整，”Zoe Mandel 说。)”可推知，Salwa和Zoe的经历告诉我们挑战助我们进步。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““We wanted to include other things that would make it feel more like a real community,” said Luke Wazorko, 11. A community garden, a place to raise chickens, a stadium for shared events, bus stops for access to jobs, and service for Wi-Fi and cellphones to help with job searches were important features offered to formerly unhoused residents.(“我们希望加入其他东西，让它更像一个真正的社区，”11 岁的 Luke Wazorko 说。社区花园、养鸡场、举办共享活动的体育场、前往工作的公交车站，以及帮助寻找工作的 Wi-Fi 和手机服务，都是为以前无家可归的居民提供的重要设施)”和最后一段中““The biggest reason for long-term homelessness is a serious lack in family relationships,” she said. “Housing alone will never solve homelessness, but community will People need a place where they are known, cared and loved.”(“长期无家可归的最大原因是严重缺乏家庭关系，”她说，“单靠住房永远无法解决无家可归问题，但社区会让人们需要一个被了解、被关心和被爱的地方。”)”可推知，根据文章内容，创建支持性环境才能彻底解决无家可归问题，故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“As Alexandria Country Day School’s sixth-graders created small 3D-printed villages to deal with homelessness, they learned lessons beyond technology ( 科技).(亚历山大乡村走读学校的六年级学生创建了 3D 打印的小型村庄来解决无家可归问题，他们学到了技术以外的经验)”和第三段中“11-year-old Salwa Seman and Zoe Mandel, found creating settings challenging but worthwhile.(11 岁的 Salwa Seman 和 Zoe Mandel 认为创造场景很有挑战性，但很有价值)”可知，文章主要讲述了11 岁的 Salwa Seman 和 Zoe Mandel 创建了 3D 打印的小型村庄来解决无家可归问题，他们致力于建立一个共享社区，D项“共享社区：年轻人在工作”适合作文章标题，故选D。 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山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone needs help, but asking can be tough.

Your list might look like this: go to school; do homework; get chores done; get help with sadness.(例如，也许你最近受伤了，需要很多帮助才能完成事情。你的清单可能看起来像这样：去上学；做作业；做家务；寻求帮助以缓解悲伤。)”举例子说明列出你的需求可以让你更好地准备寻求帮助，由此可知，空处应指出要列出你的需求，F项“然而，列出你的需求可以让你更好地准备寻求帮助”符合，和上文是转折关系，故选F。 【17题详解】 根据小标题“·Make a list of people who can help(列出可以提供帮助人的名单)”可知，本段主要介绍要列出可以给你提供帮助的人的名单，上文“Start with family and close friends and then think about other parts of your network(从家人和亲密朋友开始，然后考虑你的网络的其他部分)”指出名单中要包括家人和密友，空处承接上文，继续指出名单该包括的人，E项“你的名单可能还包括你的亲戚、老师或邻居”符合，故选E。 【18题详解】 上文“Don’t ask for help when someone is obviously busy or lost in thought.

All of them were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them would try something new, except one girl named Hannah. Very few people in the village could read or write, and Hannah was one of them. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the forests looking for new things. One afternoon, when two of her friends, Amma and Lily, and she were on their adventurous trip, they came upon an abandoned (废弃的) small wooden house. The house looked very old. “If we meet anything terrible, I am out of here!” Lily cried. “Look at those overgrown grass. It seems like a place forgotten by time.” Amma followed. Despite Mom’s warning against going around in abandoned places, Hannah’s curiosity got the better of her. Heart pounding wildly, she tip-toed (踮着脚尖走) to the door and slowly opened it and she was left surprised. In front of Hannah was a room full of books—books shining in the dust, bathed in the warm sunlight just waiting to be explored. Hannah’s excitement was obvious on her face as she jumped up and down with joy! Hannah took a quick breath as she realized that she had found a hidden treasure. She dusted the books, the shelves, and what was left on the table. In her excitement, Hannah shared everything with her friends. She was thinking that her friends would share her excitement but instead, she heard roars of laughter! Lily laughed, “Books? What’s the point of those dusty old things? We have everything we need provided by our parents. You’re wasting your time, Hannah.” Another friend, Amma, cut in, “Yeah, I heard that reading too much messes up your head. Why trouble to do that when we have our usual life to live?” 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。 Hannah was confused by the response and a little hurt too. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She wanted to share the treasure with everyone though it might be difficult. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Hannah was confused by the response and a little hurt too. But she did not give up on her books. She went home and all night long, she thought about the books she had found in the house . The next day, she quickly finished her breakfast and made her way to the small wooden house again. There she read different stories. Hannah’s imagination took her to a different world. She was so inspired by the books that the characters and the stories within them became her mentor. She learned a lot from them. She wanted to share the treasure with everyone though it might be difficult. Making this her mission, Hannah started telling tales every day at her village. She added her own touch of curiosity every now and then to different stories, making them more interesting. In the beginning, only her very good friend came to the readings. But to her excitement, the word of her famous tales spread rapidly, causing more and more people to come to the readings. Seeing the interest of people, Hannah started writing her own stories of her own too. Soon, the word of Hannah’s storytelling spread to far-off towns. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。主要讲述了Hannah是一个富有冒险精神的女孩，一天在探险的时候发现了一个小屋，里面有很多书籍，她对这些书籍很感兴趣。通过读这些书她学到了很多，她还决定给村里的每个人都讲故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“汉娜对这个回答感到困惑，而且也有点受伤。”可知，第一段可描写汉娜没有放弃要去读这些书的决心，她回到小木屋读书，且从中学到了很多。 ②由第二段首句内容“尽管这可能很困难，她还是想与大家分享这份宝藏。”可知，第二段可描写汉娜给村里的人读这些书，慢慢地很多人喜欢听她读书。 2.续写线索：没有放弃——回到小木屋——读书，学到很多——与大家分享——开始只有她的好朋友来听故事——慢慢大家都很喜欢听她讲故事 3.词汇激活行为类 ①回家：go home/return home ②完成：finish/complete ③鼓励：inspire/encourage 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型1] She was so inspired by the books that the characters and the stories within them became her mentor. （由that引导的限制性定语从句） [高分句型2]She added her own touch of curiosity every now and then to different stories, making them more interesting（由现在分词作状语） [高分句型3]Seeing the interest of people, Hannah started writing her own stories of her own too. （动名词作宾语） 听力1.A 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.C 6.A 7.C 8.C 9.A 10.B 11.B 12.C 13.B 14.A 15.C 16.B 17.B 18.A 19.C 20.A 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 秘密★启用前 【考试时间：7月5日8:30—10:00】 昆明市2023~2024学年高一期末质量检测 英语 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上，并认真核准条形码上的准考证号、姓名、考场号、座位号及科目，在规定的位置贴好条形码。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

B Lyu Yating, a young artisan (工匠) from Jingdezhen, is making great efforts to create Ling long porcelain (瓷器), a unique type of porcelain from Jingdezhen, often referred to as the “city of porcelain” in East China’s Jiangxi province. Born in a family in Jingdezhen deeply rooted in the porcelain field, Lyu spent her childhood playing with clay (黏土) everyday. While studying international business in the UK, Lyu found that many foreign museums showed Chinese porcelain. “Seeing those pieces made me really want to preserve this tradition. It’s a significant part of Chinese culture, reflecting the wisdom of several generations of Chinese,” she said. However, Ling long porcelain is too difficult to make, so it is hardly seen in the market; even museums display very few examples of it. Due to the difficult y with its production process, only a limited number of Ling long porcelain pieces have survived overtime When graduating in 2014 at the age of 21, Lyu made the unusual choice to give up further education and profitable offers from foreign companies. Instead, s here fumed to her roots, learning the art of Ling long porcelain from other artisans for more than a decade. This hands-on experience allowed her to develop a deep understanding of the professional practices. Lyu also observed arising fascination among young individuals with traditional decorative arts overtime. “I believe it’s important for cultural heritage to reach every household. My intention is to change porcelain into daily things, making it possible for more people to enjoy the beauty of this cultural heritage at an affordable price,” she said. Beyond combining cultural heritage with the daily lives of young people, Lyu has even greater goals. “I aim to create something absolutely new for international audiences, drawing global attention to Jingdezhen’s Ling long porcelain and stressing its richness and diversity. I’m confident I can achieve this,” she said. 4. What can be learned about Lyu Yating? A. She founded an international business. B. She studied Ling long porcelain in the UK. C. She volunteered in museums in Jingdezhen. D. She was fascinated by porcelain at an early age. 5. Why did Lyu return to her hometown? A. To seek a better pay. B. To preserve Ling long porcelain. C. To introduce porcelain pieces to the UK. D. To receive better further education in China. 6. What might the young think about traditional decorative arts nowadays? A. Attractive. B. Adaptable. C. Accessible. D. Affordable 7. What is the main idea of the text? A. Ling long porcelain walks into the youth’s daily life. B. A young artisan renews precious Ling long porcelain. C. Cultural heritage sets foot in every Chinese household. D. A porcelain specialist internationalizes traditional skills. C Elephants are among the few wild animals to build strong social al connections of companionship, friendship and family. They are able to recognize not only their own mothers, calves (幼崽), brothers and sisters but also their grandmothers, aunts, cousins and nieces. They know elephants they’ve interacted within the past, and have been observed to build particular friendships with unrelated elephants. These features partly result from the way that elephants live. “Herds” are very small units a group of three or four closely related female elephants plus their calves, who live and travel together for all their lives. Sometimes, though, these herds join up with other herds, living, feeding playing and travelling together. These groups almost always go back into their basic family units in the end, but if they come across each other again they will express recognition and love. Like all mammals (哺乳动物), elephant communicate a great deal through body language. Love is often expressed by crossing or “hugging” their long noses, usually between close relatives and friends who have travelled in the same herd for a long time. And much physical communication takes place with the ends of elephants’ noses — they use these to comfort and reassure each other, to greet friends, and to recognize the efforts of a hard-working mother or the birth of new calves. When a member of the herd is close to death, the whole herd will stop moving and stay resting in one small area for a time. Once the elderly or sick elephant passes away, they will stay on for a few more days — gathering around the dead body, and seeming to make aloud high sad sound for their companion that has passed away. 8. What is special about elephants according to paragraph 1? A. They can identify various species. B. They live independently in most cases. C. They tend to establish social networks. D. They seldom interact with unrelated ones. 9. What do elephants do after joining up with other herds? A Feed the other herds. B. End up in their original herds. C. Give birth to new calves. D. Live together for all their lives. 10. What does the underlined word “reassure” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Make fun of. B. Take control of. C. Give confidence to. D. Turn a blind eye to. 11 What’s a herd’s reaction to the death of a member? A. Letting out a faint sound. B. Moving forward in small groups. C. Crossing or hugging their long noses. D. Gathering around in memory of the companion. D As Alexandria Country Day School’s sixth-graders created small 3D-printed villages to deal with homelessness, they learned lessons beyond technology (科技). The project which was inspired by life-size 3D-printed homes built by a Texas-based technology company, aimed to make housing accessible for everyone. Using inexpensive materials the students built strong homes in just a few days. 11-year-old Salwa Seman and Zoe Mandel, found creating settings challenging but worthwhile. “If the temperature of the printer is too hot or cold, or if the printed walls are tooth in, the constructions might fail,” said Salwa Seman. “You learn from your mistakes and make adaptations,” said Zoe Mandel. The tech-focused project quickly developed into “an exercise in understanding, creation, and partnership to bring about lasting change,” said science teacher Alison McDonald. “When most people think of helping the homeless, they think of food and clothing,” said Juliet Galicia, 11.

All of them were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them would try something new, except one girl named Hannah. Very few people in the village could read or write, and Hannah was one of them. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the forests looking for new things. One afternoon, when two of her friends, Amma and Lily, and she were on their adventurous trip, they came upon an abandoned (废弃的) small wooden house. The house looked very old. “If we meet anything terrible, I am out of here!” Lily cried. “Look at those overgrown grass. It seems like a place forgotten by time.” Amma followed. Despite Mom’s warning against going around in abandoned places, Hannah’s curiosity got the better of her. Heart pounding wildly, she tip-toed (踮着脚尖走) to the door and slowly opened it and she was left surprised. In front of Hannah was a room full of books—books shining in the dust, bathed in the warm sunlight just waiting to be explored. Hannah’s excitement was obvious on her face as she jumped up and down with joy! Hannah took a quick breath as she realized that she had found a hidden treasure. She dusted the books, the shelves, and what was left on the table. In her excitement, Hannah shared everything with her friends. She was thinking that her friends would share her excitement but instead, she heard roars of laughter! Lily laughed, “Books? What’s the point of those dusty old things? We have everything we need provided by our parents. You’re wasting your time, Hannah.” Another friend, Amma, cut in, “Yeah, I heard that reading too much messes up your head. Why trouble to do that when we have our usual life to live?” 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。 Hannah was confused by the response and a little hurt too. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She wanted to share the treasure with everyone though it might be difficult. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1.A 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.C 6.A 7.C 8.C 9.A 10.B 11.B 12.C 13.B 14.A 15.C 16.B 17.B 18.A 19.C 20.A 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
