It was first published in the year 1904, authored by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but it still connects to today’s world where we forget to live in the present. It tells of the adventures of Anne Shirley, an 11-year-old orphan (孤儿)girl who is mistakenly sent to Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a middle-aged brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm in the fictional town of Avonlea. The novel describes how Anne makes her way with the Cuthberts, in school, and within the town. The book teaches me a lot of things, the most important being — to be who you are. Why do we need to pretend to be somebody else and project a false image of ourselves to look better? We need to realize that we are all different in our own way and accept ourselves first. As is described in the book, Anne is a colorful and ever-growing character. She “has as many shades as a rainbow and every shade is the prettiest while it lasts.” Each aspect of her personality is beautiful, which makes her unique and interesting. Another important concept that is illustrated remarkably well is the importance of taking joy in the world around us. Anne’s obvious wonder-struck appreciation of life made me truly appreciate the small things. Here is my favourite quote (引言) from Chapter 19: I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string. Anne’s influence has deeply shaped who I am today. This classic novel truly highlights the importance of self-love and gratitude. With its uplifting and refreshing story, it is a wonderful read for people of all ages seeking a joyful and enriching literary journey. 24. What do we know about Anne of Green Gables? A. It is a recent release. B. It covers real events. C. It is a timeless classic. D. It features world history. 25. What can we learn about Anne from paragraph 3? A. She is true to herself. B. She achieves her goal. C She is talented in drawing. D. She cares about others. 26. Which of the following best matches the quote from Chapter 19? A. Time waits for no man. B. Do one thing at a time. C. Fortune favours the brave. D. Stop and smell the roses. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To tell a story. B. To remember a writer. C. To teach a lesson. D. To recommend a book. C Sending human travelers to Mars would require scientists and engineers to overcome a range of technological and safety obstacles. One of them is the serious risk posed by particle radiation (辐射) from the sun, distant stars and galaxies (星系). Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty: Would particle radiation pose too serious a threat to human life throughout a round trip to the red planet? And, could the very timing of a mission to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation? In a new article published in the journal Space Weather, an international team of space scientists, including researchers from UCLA, answers those two questions with a “no” and a “yes.” That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, only if the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than approximately four years. And the timing of a human mission to Mars would indeed make a difference: The scientists determined that the best time for a flight to leave Earth would be when solar activity is at its peak (高峰期), because, during this period, the most dangerous and energetic particles from distant galaxies are deflected (偏转) by the enhanced solar activity. A trip of that length would be imaginable. The average flight to Mars takes about nine months, so depending on the timing of launch and available fuel, it is reasonable that a human mission could reach the planet and return to Earth in less than two years, according to Yuri Shprits, a UCLA research geophysicist and co–author of the paper. “This study shows that while space radiation impose (强加) strict limitations on how heavy the spacecraft can be and the time of launch, and it presents technological difficulties for human missions to Mars, such a mission is possible,” said Shprits, who also is head of space physics and space weather at GFZ Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany. 28. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To list human’s achievements in space. B. To show a possible way to travel to Mars. C. To introduce scientists’ effort to travel to Mars. D. To present one of the difficulties of the trip to Mars. 29. What does the underlined word “shield” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Escape. B. Approach. C. Protect. D. Separate. 30. What is the longest duration (持续时间) of a round trip to Mars for the safety of humans? A. About 9 months. B. Less than 4 years. C. Less than two years. D. One year. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Will It Be Safe for Humans to Fly to Mars? B. Humans Will Travel to Mars in the Near Future. C. The Timing of a Trip to Mars Is Planned. D. Particle Radiation Changes for the Solar Activity. D Unless you’ve been faithfully bringing reusable shopping bags to the store, you probably grab the plastic bags waiting for customers at the checkout. You’re not alone. About 100 billion plastic bags are used in the U. S. each year. Unfortunately, single-use plastic bags have serious consequences once our trip to the store is over. Less than 10% of plastic bags used in the U. S. are recycled, leaving the rest to end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场), and polluting soil, oceans and other natural habitats. To fight pollution and other environmental problems, major companies are taking steps to get rid of the use of plastic shopping bags. If you’re a frequent customer at Walmart, don’t be surprised if you notice the plastic bags disappearing over the next few months. Last summer, Walmart announced its goal to be a zero-waste company — meaning no more plastic bags. But Walmart has announced its Beyond the Bag, an initiative (倡议) working to explore reusable options and “reimagine” the plastic bag. Target and CVS are also on board as founding partners of Beyond the Bag, and so far, the three brands have invested $15 million to come up with a brand-new bag design. The initiative also started the Beyond the Bag challenge, giving innovators (创新者) a chance to share their ideas. The challenge ran throughout the summer of 2020, and nine winners from over 450 submissions were selected. From a station supplying reusable bag in-store to a new and improved paper bag, the winning designs cover a lot of bases. Each product now has the chance to be tested with funding from the initiative. While a final replacement for plastic bags at Walmart has yet to be decided, there’s a more sustainable future on the horizon. And if you want to start reducing your use of plastic bags right now, check out our list of reusable bags to bring on your next shopping trip. 32. What does the author mean by saying “You’re not alone” in the first paragraph? A. Reusable shopping bags are becoming more popular. B. Customers need to wait for long at the checkout. C. Some people are waiting in the line with you. D. Many people use plastic bags when shopping. 33. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 2? A. Single-use plastic bags cause severe environmental problems. B. Supermarkets should stop providing single-use plastic bags. C. Single-use plastic bags should be more widely recycled. D. More landfills should be built to deal with plastic bags. 34. Why does Walmart want to start Beyond the Bag? A. To attract more customers. B. To provide more plastic bags. C. To set a good example to Target and CVS. D. To make shopping more environmentally friendly. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. People pay more attention to environmental protection. B. Walmart is getting rid of single-use plastic bags. C. Reusable paper bags are becoming more popular. D. Free plastic bags have become a thing of the past. 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。 Walking has been considered as one of the best possible exercises. For many people, daily walking offers many and long-term physical and mental benefits. ___36___ A Stanford University study found that participants were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.____37____You’ve probably heard the phrase “exercise your innovation (创新)”.

You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. ___38___ Walking outside develops our ability to collect new ideas and take in new sights, sounds, smells, and flavors. Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking among the trees there can lower your stress levels___39___ Research has shown that immersion (沉浸) in nature around your neighborhood or the disconnection from multimedia increased performance on a creative problem-solving task. So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking outdoors? ___40___ For example, you can turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a lake. Walk not just for exercise. Walk for wonder. A. Unfortunately, you often fail to do it. B. Engage more closely with your surroundings. C. The movement aspect of walking is obviously key D. Without enough energy, you cannot wonder or create. E. But to receive the benefits, you do not have to live in a forest. F. This habit, however, isn’t just improving your health but an element of creativity. G. You can also wander around a park and observe people relaxing or birds singing. 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。 Afraid to have a start, I was walking slowly into my first school in America.

People make themselves into winners by their own efforts. I learned this lesson from an experience many years ago. I took the head coaching job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a weak football program. The school took part in the league matches every year. However, it never ended well. We were more of the audience, watching and cheering instead of sweating out in the fields. Fortunately, the school held the tradition that the school’s old team was to play against the new team at the end of spring practice. For lack of resources, the old team bad no coach, and they didn’t even practice to prepare for the game. I was assigned (指派) as the coach of the new team, which was why I was excited. I believed that we were going to win, but to my disappointment, we were defeated. I couldn’t believe I had got into such a situation. Thinking hard about it, I tried to figure out the reason and what I should do next. It didn’t take long before I came to realize that my team was depending on me. Without proper guidance or previous experience, my team was at a loss what to do. I had to change my attitude so that I could bring out the best in them about their ability and potential. I would let my action do the talking. First, I started doing anything I could to help them build a little pride. I could see their spirits lifted, with their head held high in great confidence. Most importantly, I began to treat them like winners. Only when they regarded themselves as winners could they willingly invest time and energy. This summer, the other teams enjoyed their vacations. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Six months later, football season started. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024学年第二学期平凉市泾川一中高中期末联考 高一英语试卷 注意事项： 1.本试卷满分150分，考试时间为120分钟。 2.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号码写在答题卡相应的位置上。 3.所有答案必须在答题卡上作答。 第I卷 第一部分 听力（共20小题，每小题1.5分，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, 并标在试卷的相应位置。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What will the man do after work?

Let’s start with tip one, don’t go to bed with the television on. Some people think they can sleep well with the TV on, but the noise and lights mean you don’t really sleep well. So, turn it off. Tip two, don’t think too much before bedtime. Do your hardest homework earlier in the evening. Do easier homework later. If your brain is too busy and full of ideas, it takes longer to get to sleep. Tip three, don’t play video games an hour before you go to sleep. You may get excited. They can make your brain too busy and active. Tip four, turn off your cell phone when you go to bed. What is so important that it can’t wait until the morning? If possible, leave your phone in another room. Tip five, play music if you like, but don’t play it too loud. Turn the sound down low. W: Thank you for the useful advice for our young listeners, doctor. 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Discover exciting optional courses at our school and join us to explore your interests and develop new skills!

It was first published in the year 1904, authored by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but it still connects to today’s world where we forget to live in the present. It tells of the adventures of Anne Shirley, an 11-year-old orphan (孤儿)girl who is mistakenly sent to Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a middle-aged brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm in the fictional town of Avonlea. The novel describes how Anne makes her way with the Cuthberts, in school, and within the town. The book teaches me a lot of things, the most important being — to be who you are. Why do we need to pretend to be somebody else and project a false image of ourselves to look better? We need to realize that we are all different in our own way and accept ourselves first. As is described in the book, Anne is a colorful and ever-growing character. She “has as many shades as a rainbow and every shade is the prettiest while it lasts.” Each aspect of her personality is beautiful, which makes her unique and interesting. Another important concept that is illustrated remarkably well is the importance of taking joy in the world around us. Anne’s obvious wonder-struck appreciation of life made me truly appreciate the small things. Here is my favourite quote (引言) from Chapter 19: I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string. Anne’s influence has deeply shaped who I am today. This classic novel truly highlights the importance of self-love and gratitude. With its uplifting and refreshing story, it is a wonderful read for people of all ages seeking a joyful and enriching literary journey. 24. What do we know about Anne of Green Gables? A. It is a recent release. B. It covers real events. C. It is a timeless classic. D. It features world history. 25. What can we learn about Anne from paragraph 3? A. She is true to herself. B. She achieves her goal. C. She is talented in drawing. D. She cares about others. 26. Which of the following best matches the quote from Chapter 19? A. Time waits for no man. B. Do one thing at a time. C. Fortune favours the brave. D. Stop and smell the roses. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To tell a story. B. To remember a writer. C. To teach a lesson. D. To recommend a book. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者向读者介绍了《绿山墙的安妮》这一本小说。介绍了安妮的成长，处事态度，感恩精神，以及这本书对作者的影响。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“Anne of Green Gables is ideally meant for children — one might think so when seeing the cover or reading through the back page of the masterpiece. It was first published in the year 1904, authored by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but it still connects to today’s world where we forget to live in the present. (《绿山墙的安妮》是儿童的理想之作——当人们看到封面或翻阅这部杰作的封底时，可能会这么认为。它于1904年首次出版，作者是露西·莫德·蒙哥马利，但它仍然与我们忘记生活在当下的当今世界联系在一起。)”可知，《绿山墙的安妮》是一部永恒的经典之作。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。文章第三段讲到“The book teaches me a lot of things, the most important being — to be who you are. Why do we need to pretend to be somebody else and project a false image of ourselves to look better? We need to realize that we are all different in our own way and accept ourselves first. (这本书教会了我很多东西，最重要的是——做你自己。为什么我们需要假装成别人，给自己树立一个虚假的形象，让自己看起来更好？我们需要意识到，我们在自己的方式上都是不同的，并首先接受自己。)”可知，第一句是本段的主旨句，告诉我们本段主旨是：做你自己。下文用安妮的例子来证明这一观点。从第三段我们可以了解到安妮忠于自己。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。文章倒数第二段讲到“I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures (我相信，最美好、最甜蜜的日子并不是那些发生了任何精彩、美妙或激动人心的事情的日子，而是那些带来简单小快乐的日子)”可知，生活中的点滴小事情就是最美好、最甜蜜的日子，因此最符合第19章的引文的是：停下来闻一闻玫瑰花。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“With its uplifting and refreshing story, it is a wonderful read for people of all ages seeking a joyful and enriching literary journey. (它以其振奋人心、令人耳目一新的故事，为寻求一段快乐而丰富的文学之旅的各个年龄段的人们提供了一本精彩的读物。)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是推荐一本书。故选D。 C Sending human travelers to Mars would require scientists and engineers to overcome a range of technological and safety obstacles. One of them is the serious risk posed by particle radiation (辐射) from the sun, distant stars and galaxies (星系). Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty: Would particle radiation pose too serious a threat to human life throughout a round trip to the red planet? And, could the very timing of a mission to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation? In a new article published in the journal Space Weather, an international team of space scientists, including researchers from UCLA, answers those two questions with a “no” and a “yes.” That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, only if the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than approximately four years. And the timing of a human mission to Mars would indeed make a difference: The scientists determined that the best time for a flight to leave Earth would be when solar activity is at its peak (高峰期), because, during this period, the most dangerous and energetic particles from distant galaxies are deflected (偏转) by the enhanced solar activity. A trip of that length would be imaginable. The average flight to Mars takes about nine months, so depending on the timing of launch and available fuel, it is reasonable that a human mission could reach the planet and return to Earth in less than two years, according to Yuri Shprits, a UCLA research geophysicist and co–author of the paper. “This study shows that while space radiation impose (强加) strict limitations on how heavy the spacecraft can be and the time of launch, and it presents technological difficulties for human missions to Mars, such a mission is possible,” said Shprits, who also is head of space physics and space weather at GFZ Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany. 28. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To list human’s achievements in space. B. To show a possible way to travel to Mars. C. To introduce scientists’ effort to travel to Mars. D. To present one of the difficulties of the trip to Mars. 29. What does the underlined word “shield” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Escape. B. Approach. C. Protect. D. Separate. 30. What is the longest duration (持续时间) of a round trip to Mars for the safety of humans? A. About 9 months. B. Less than 4 years. C. Less than two years. D. One year. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Will It Be Safe for Humans to Fly to Mars? B. Humans Will Travel to Mars in the Near Future. C. The Timing of a Trip to Mars Is Planned. D. Particle Radiation Changes for the Solar Activity. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是前往火星的旅程中，人类将会受到太空中的粒子辐射的影响。科学家认为，恰当的启程时间和合理的旅行周期将能确保宇航员的安全。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“One of them is the serious risk posed by particle radiation(辐射) from the sun, distant stars and galaxies (星系).(其中之一是来自太阳、遥远恒星和星系的粒子辐射带来的严重风险)”和第二段的“Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty(回答两个关键问题将对克服这一困难大有帮助)”可推知，第一段的作用是介绍人类前往火星需要克服的一个难题。故选D项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后的“from the radiation(从辐射)”可知，此处作者提出疑问：前往火星的恰当时机能否保护宇航员和宇宙飞船免受辐射的伤害。由此可知，shield意为“保护；保卫”，与protect意思相近。故选C项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, only if the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than approximately four years.(也就是说，人类应该能够安全地往返火星，前提是宇宙飞船有足够的屏蔽，往返时间不超过大约4年)”可知，人类安全地往返火星是可行的，前提是宇宙飞船有足够的保护，而且往返时间少于四年。故选B项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty: Would particle radiation pose too serious a threat to human life throughout a round trip to the red planet? And, could the very timing of a mission to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation?(回答两个关键问题将对克服这一困难大有帮助：粒子辐射是否会在往返火星的过程中对人类生命构成太严重的威胁？而且，前往火星的时间是否能够帮助宇航员和宇宙飞船免受辐射的伤害?)”和第三段的“That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, only if the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than approximately four years.(也就是说，人类应该能够安全地往返火星，前提是宇宙飞船有足够的屏蔽，往返时间不超过大约4年)”可知，本文主要讲的是人类前往火星将会受到太空中的粒子辐射的影响。科学家认为合适的启程时间和合理的旅行周期将能确保宇航员的安全，故A项“Will It Be Safe for Humans to Fly to Mars?(人类飞往火星会是安全的吗？)”可作本文标题，故选A项。 D Unless you’ve been faithfully bringing reusable shopping bags to the store, you probably grab the plastic bags waiting for customers at the checkout. You’re not alone. About 100 billion plastic bags are used in the U. S. each year. Unfortunately, single-use plastic bags have serious consequences once our trip to the store is over. Less than 10% of plastic bags used in the U. S. are recycled, leaving the rest to end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场), and polluting soil, oceans and other natural habitats. To fight pollution and other environmental problems, major companies are taking steps to get rid of the use of plastic shopping bags. If you’re a frequent customer at Walmart, don’t be surprised if you notice the plastic bags disappearing over the next few months. Last summer, Walmart announced its goal to be a zero-waste company — meaning no more plastic bags. But Walmart has announced its Beyond the Bag, an initiative (倡议) working to explore reusable options and “reimagine” the plastic bag. Target and CVS are also on board as founding partners of Beyond the Bag, and so far, the three brands have invested $15 million to come up with a brand-new bag design. The initiative also started the Beyond the Bag challenge, giving innovators (创新者) a chance to share their ideas. The challenge ran throughout the summer of 2020, and nine winners from over 450 submissions were selected. From a station supplying reusable bag in-store to a new and improved paper bag, the winning designs cover a lot of bases. Each product now has the chance to be tested with funding from the initiative. While a final replacement for plastic bags at Walmart has yet to be decided, there’s a more sustainable future on the horizon. And if you want to start reducing your use of plastic bags right now, check out our list of reusable bags to bring on your next shopping trip. 32. What does the author mean by saying “You’re not alone” in the first paragraph? A. Reusable shopping bags are becoming more popular. B. Customers need to wait for long at the checkout. C. Some people are waiting in the line with you. D. Many people use plastic bags when shopping. 33. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 2? A. Single-use plastic bags cause severe environmental problems. B. Supermarkets should stop providing single-use plastic bags. C. Single-use plastic bags should be more widely recycled. D. More landfills should be built to deal with plastic bags. 34 Why does Walmart want to start Beyond the Bag? A. To attract more customers. B. To provide more plastic bags. C. To set a good example to Target and CVS. D. To make shopping more environmentally friendly. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. People pay more attention to environmental protection. B. Walmart is getting rid of single-use plastic bags. C. Reusable paper bags are becoming more popular. D. Free plastic bags have become a thing of the past. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了为了对抗塑料购物袋带来的污染和其他环境问题，以沃尔玛为代表的大公司正在采取措施摆脱塑料购物袋的使用。沃尔玛公司提出了“超越袋子”计划，并在积极的实施中。 【32题详解】 词义猜测题。根据该句的前文“Unless you’ve been faithfully bringing reusable shopping bags to the store, you probably grab the plastic bags waiting for customers at the checkout.(除非你一直忠实地把可重复使用的购物袋带到商店，否则你很可能会在结账时拿走等待顾客的塑料袋。)”可知，只有可重复使用购物袋的忠实者会在购物时使用自备的购物袋，商店的结账台还是有供顾客使用的塑料袋的。由此推知，如果你不是可重复使用购物袋的忠实者，那么你会和其他人一样使用塑料袋。因此，“You’re not alone”应是表达“你和其他人一样在购物时使用塑料袋，即，还是有很多人在购物时选择使用塑料袋”。故选D项。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。通过阅读可知，“Unfortunately, single-use plastic bags have serious consequences once our trip to the store is over.(不幸的是，一旦我们去商店购物，一次性塑料袋就会产生严重的后果。)”为第二段的核心主旨句，因此可知，作者在第二段想要告诉读者的是一次性塑料袋产生的严重后果，尤其是对环境造成严重的后果。故选A项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“To fight pollution and other environmental problems, major companies are taking steps to get rid of the use of plastic shopping bags.(为了对抗污染和其他环境问题，大公司正在采取措施摆脱塑料购物袋的使用。)”，以及第四段内容“But Walmart has announced its Beyond the Bag, an initiative working to explore reusable options and ‘reimagine’ the plastic bag.(但沃尔玛已经宣布了其“超越袋子”计划，该计划致力于探索可重复使用的选择，并“重新构想”塑料袋。)”可知，为了对抗污染和其他环境问题，大公司在采取措施摆脱塑料购物袋的使用，沃尔玛是其中之一，因此沃尔玛提出了“超越袋子”计划。由此可知，沃尔玛提出“超越袋子”计划是为了使购物更加环保。故选D项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读文章内容可知，文章的第一二段是背景介绍，第三段内容“To fight pollution and other environmental problems, major companies are taking steps to get rid of the use of plastic shopping bags. If you’re a frequent customer at Walmart, don’t be surprised if you notice the plastic bags disappearing over the next few months.(为了对抗污染和其他环境问题，大公司正在采取措施摆脱塑料购物袋的使用。如果你是沃尔玛的常客，在接下来的几个月里，如果你发现塑料袋消失了，不要感到惊讶。)为文章的核心主旨，即，文章主要讲述了沃尔玛正在进行摆脱塑料袋的环保方式，并在后文以其提出“超越袋子”计划进行了详细介绍。选项B“Walmart is getting rid of single-use plastic bags.(沃尔玛正在淘汰一次性塑料袋。)”贴合文章主旨。故选B项。 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。 Walking has been considered as one of the best possible exercises. For many people, daily walking offers many and long-term physical and mental benefits. ___36___ A Stanford University study found that participants were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.____37____You’ve probably heard the phrase “exercise your innovation (创新)”. Our creative mindset is caused by physical movement, which is exactly why walking with your dog, a friend, or alone feeds creative thinking. But the scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. ___38___ Walking outside develops our ability to collect new ideas and take in new sights, sounds, smells, and flavors. Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking among the trees there can lower your stress levels___39___ Research has shown that immersion (沉浸) in nature around your neighborhood or the disconnection from multimedia increased performance on a creative problem-solving task. So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking outdoors? ___40___ For example, you can turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a lake. Walk not just for exercise. Walk for wonder. A. Unfortunately, you often fail to do it. B. Engage more closely with your surroundings. C. The movement aspect of walking is obviously key D. Without enough energy, you cannot wonder or create. E. But to receive the benefits, you do not have to live in a forest. F. This habit, however, isn’t just improving your health but an element of creativity. G. You can also wander around a park and observe people relaxing or birds singing. 【答案】36. F 37. C 38. G 39. E 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了步行作为最佳锻炼方式之一，不仅对身体和心理健康有益，还是创造力的一个元素。 【36题详解】 根据空前“Walking has been considered as one of the best possible exercises. For many people, daily walking offers many and long-term physical and mental benefits. (散步被认为是最好的运动之一。对许多人来说，每天散步对身体和精神都有长期的好处。)”以及空后“A Stanford University study found that participants were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.(斯坦福大学的一项研究发现，参与者在走路时比坐着时更有创造力。)”可知，上下文讲述的是散步的好处，空前讲述的是散步对身心健康有益，空后讲述的是散步的人更有创造力。选项F“This habit, however, isn’t just improving your health but an element of creativity.(然而，这个习惯不仅能改善你的健康，而且是创造力的一部分。)”承上启下，与上下文内容一致。故选F。 【37题详解】 根据空前内容“A Stanford University study found that participants were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.(斯坦福大学的一项研究发现，参与者在走路时比坐着时更有创造力。)”可知，上文提到步行和创造力之间的关系。选项C“The movement aspect of walking is obviously key(步行的运动方面显然是关键)” 与上文的“walking as opposed to sitting”相呼应，并强调了运动（特别是步行）在激发创造力方面的重要性。故选C。 【38题详解】 根据上文内容“But the scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood.(但风景几乎和汗水一样重要。只要走出去，你就走出了你习惯的环境和你的舒适区，如果你想打开你的思想，接受新的可能性，这是必要的。你可以穿过绿树成荫的社区。)”可知，上文提及当我们散步时可以做些什么。选项G“You can also wander around a park and observe people relaxing or birds singing.(你也可以在公园里闲逛，观察人们放松或鸟儿唱歌。)”与上文内容相符，指的是散步时我们可以在公园里闲逛，观察人们放松或鸟儿唱歌。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据空前内容“Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking among the trees there can lower your stress levels(Shinrin-yoku是日本一种常见的放松方式，它表明，在森林里，在树中间散步可以降低你的压力水平。)”可知，在森林中散步可以缓解压力。选项E“But to receive the benefits, you do not have to live in a forest.(但是要得到这些好处，你不一定要住在森林里。)”承接上文内容，同时引出下文“Research has shown that immersion (沉浸) in nature around your neighborhood or the disconnection from multimedia increased performance on a creative problem-solving task.(研究表明，沉浸在你周围的大自然中，或者脱离多媒体，可以提高你在创造性问题解决任务中的表现。)”，指出，只需要沉浸在周围大自然之中我们就可以得到散步的好处。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据空后内容“For example, you can turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a lake.(例如，你可以关掉手机，给自己一个机会活在这个世界上，听对话和自然的声音，注意人们移动的方式和太阳在湖中反射的方式。)”可知，下文所举例子建议人们走进大自然。选项B“Engage more closely with your surroundings.(更密切地与周围环境接触。)”与下文内容一致，都是与周围环境多接触。故选B。 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。 Afraid to have a start, I was walking slowly into my first school in America.

I learned this lesson from an experience many years ago. I took the head coaching job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a weak football program. The school took part in the league matches every year. However, it never ended well. We were more of the audience, watching and cheering instead of sweating out in the fields. Fortunately, the school held the tradition that the school’s old team was to play against the new team at the end of spring practice. For lack of resources, the old team bad no coach, and they didn’t even practice to prepare for the game. I was assigned (指派) as the coach of the new team, which was why I was excited. I believed that we were going to win, but to my disappointment, we were defeated. I couldn’t believe I had got into such a situation. Thinking hard about it, I tried to figure out the reason and what I should do next. It didn’t take long before I came to realize that my team was depending on me. Without proper guidance or previous experience, my team was at a loss what to do. I had to change my attitude so that I could bring out the best in them about their ability and potential. I would let my action do the talking. First, I started doing anything I could to help them build a little pride. I could see their spirits lifted, with their head held high in great confidence. Most importantly, I began to treat them like winners. Only when they regarded themselves as winners could they willingly invest time and energy. This summer, the other teams enjoyed their vacations. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Six months later, football season started. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 This summer, the other teams enjoyed their vacations. We met every day and practiced passing and kicking the football. At first, some complained that even the hardest practice couldn't change the fact that they were the last. The whole team was covered by the sense of depression and failure. What I could do at that time was to company them and try to cheer them up. Encouraged by my persistence, the team gathered the spirit of trying again and practiced even harder. This time, we sweated out in the fields instead of being the audience, watching and cheering. Every inch of the field has seen the effort of my team. Six months later, football season started. After suffering our failure on the spring practice field, we won our first game and our second, and continued to improve. Finally, we faced the number one team in the state. I felt that it would be a victory for us even if we lost the game. But that wasn't what happened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me one of the greatest thrills of my life! From the game I learned a lot about how the attitude of the leader can influence the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and encouraged them. I helped them to see themselves differently, and they built themselves into winners. Winners are made, not born. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在巴克斯利一所学校作足球教练的经历，因为缺乏资源，球队没有教练，甚至也没有为比赛做准备，而作者临危受命，用自己的行动帮助球队进行训练，最终取得了很好的成绩。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“今年暑假，其他的队伍都在享受他们的假期”可知，第一段可描写作者与队伍之间在暑假进行集训的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“六个月后，足球赛季开始了”可知，第二段可描写作者带领团队一路比赛以及最终获得的成绩。 2.续写线索：作者接受学校足球教练的工作——足球队面临的困境——作者激发队员的斗志——足球队一起进行集训——作者带领球队获得的成绩——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 见证：see/witness 尝试：try/make an effort to do sth. 继续：continue/carry on with 情绪类 激动：thrill /excitation 沮丧：depression/disappointment 【点睛】[高分句型1]What I could do at that time was to company them and try to cheer them up.(what引导的主语从句) [高分句型2] My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me one of the greatest thrills of my life!(现在分词作状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$nullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnull
