One day, he wandered in a beautiful small town. Because of his fame, people from nearby towns who heard of his arrival all came to visit and seek his advice. Many who came sought help with difficulties in daily life, and Thomas, unable to bear turning them away, patiently offered suggestions. Word spread quickly, and more and more people came to see Thomas for guidance. One day, dozens of people crowded outside Thomas’s door, all clamoring (大声地要求) that their problems were the most serious and urgent, each insisting that Thomas address their concerns first, with no one willing to yield (让步). After a moment of thought, Thomas took out some paper and a pen and said, “I can’t hear clearly with everyone talking at once. How about everyone write down your problem on a piece of paper and place it in this basket beside me?” Once everyone had placed their notes in the basket, Thomas shook the basket and said, “Please each take a piece of paper from the basket and read what it says.” As everyone read a note from someone else, they all realized that indeed, each person has their own troubles, and every household has its own challenges. Then Thomas spoke up, “Now, whose problem is the most urgent to solve?” Hearing that question, no one spoke again, because now no one dared to claim that their problem was the most severe. Often, we are bound by our immediate feelings. When difficulties and problems strike, it feels as though we are caught in a vortex of pain. But if we shift our focus from ourselves and look towards others, we might discover that the problems we face are not so significant. Perhaps others are the ones who need help more urgently, or maybe there is something within our power that we can do for them. 4. Why did people visit Thomas? A. For advice. B. For a meeting. C. For a competition. D. For introductions. 5. How did Thomas handle the crowd? A. He ignored them. B. He listened to each one individually. C. He prioritized the problems himself. D. He asked them to write down their problems. 6. What did reading others’ problems show to the people? A. The complexity of their difficulties. B. The similarity of their situations. C. Their need for more advice. D. Their living conditions. 7. What lesson did Thomas teach? A. Competition. B. Sympathy. C. Prioritization. D. Self-confidence. C This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts found a new menu at their canteens: the “diet for a cooler planet” menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, locally grown, and involved little or no packaging. “We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food” says Kathy Wicks, sustainability (可持续发展) director for UMass Dining The university is not alone in this effort. Increasingly, American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car. Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference. Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about 1/4 of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions (排放).Beef is a regular target. “If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year,” says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased (购买) about $1, 600 worth a year per family of four. “People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate,”says Megan Larnner, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But she adds that substantial change will need to come from the whole food system. 8. What is the purpose of the new menu at the University of Massachusetts? A. To market the cold dishes. B. To reduce the cost of packaging. C. To raise low carbon awareness. D. To popularize the plant-heavy diet. 9. What can be inferred from Parngraph 2? A. Food choices matter much to global warming. B. Food is a decisive factor for climate change. C. Universities are working together in climate action. D. Fuel-efficient cars are not affordable for consumers. 10. What does Sujatha Bergen say about beef? A. It plays a significant role in American’s diet. B. It is popular among millions of car drivers. C. It has no relationship with gas emission. D. It has great influence on carbon reduction. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Food System Reform: A Successful Trial B. Low Carbon Diet: A trend, or More? C. Carbon Emission: A Killer, or Healer? D. Global Warming: An Approaching Danger D TikTok, the widely popular social media platform, has taken the world by storm with its short-form videos and addictive content. But did you know that there is also a Chinese version of TikTok? The Chinese version of TikTok is called Douyin, and it has quickly become one of the most widely used apps in China. Launched in 2016 by Beijing-based tech company ByteDance, Douyin has attracted an enormous user base and reshaped the social media landscape in China. So how did Douyin gain such vast popularity in China? One of the factors contributing to Douyin’s success is the large population of smartphone users in China. With over 1.4 billion people, China has a massive user base for social media platforms. Additionally, the rise in internet penetration and the availability of affordable smartphones have made it easier for people to access and use Douyin.

Douyin provides a platform for users to easily create and share short videos, allowing them to express their creativity and talent. Douyin leverages the power of social network effects. Users can follow each other, like and comment on videos, and engage with a large community of like-minded individuals. This sense of belonging and community encourages them to spend more time on the platform. Moreover. Douyin continuously improves its features and algorithms to enhance user experience and keep users engaged. The app uses advanced AI technology to analyze user preferences and provide personalized recommendations, ensuring that users see content that is relevant and interesting to them. Overall, the rise of the Chinese version of TikTok, Douyin, can be attributed to a combination of factors, including the large smartphone user base, the popularity of short-form entertainment in China, social network effects, and continuous improvements in features and algorithms. 12. How is Douyin different from TikTok? A. Its algorithms. B. Its target groups. C. Its user experience. D. Its main functions. 13. Which of the following is one of the factors of Douyin’s success in China? A. The popularity of long-form videos. B. The low technology requirements to Douyin. C. The large population of smartphone users. D. The availability of different brands of mobile phones. 14. What does the underlined word “leverages” mean in Paragraph 6?

My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen — teaching English． School started. I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class who were only six years younger than me. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love for the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs (纸团)and whisper dirty words in the back of the room. In college, I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. But in fact, humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster, known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise. My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn’t happening and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes, he left silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes. I felt mildly proud that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period, I had to face him. 注意：1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: After class, I walked to his office, took a deep breath and opened the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Inspired by his advice, I walked toward the classroom, determined to make a change. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1-5 B CA B C 6-10 BC A BC 11-15 A A C A B 16-20 C C B A B 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 建平县实验中学2023-2024学年度下学期高二期末考试 英语试题 考试时间: 120 分钟 试卷满分: 150分 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.

This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, locally grown, and involved little or no packaging. “We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food” says Kathy Wicks, sustainability (可持续发展) director for UMass Dining The university is not alone in this effort. Increasingly, American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car. Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference. Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about 1/4 of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions (排放).Beef is a regular target. “If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year,” says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased (购买) about $1, 600 worth a year per family of four. “People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate,”says Megan Larnner, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But she adds that substantial change will need to come from the whole food system. 8. What is the purpose of the new menu at the University of Massachusetts? A. To market the cold dishes. B. To reduce the cost of packaging. C. To raise low carbon awareness. D. To popularize the plant-heavy diet. 9. What can be inferred from Parngraph 2? A. Food choices matter much to global warming. B Food is a decisive factor for climate change. C. Universities are working together in climate action. D. Fuel-efficient cars are not affordable for consumers. 10. What does Sujatha Bergen say about beef? A. It plays a significant role in American’s diet. B. It is popular among millions of car drivers. C. It has no relationship with gas emission. D. It has great influence on carbon reduction. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Food System Reform: A Successful Trial B. Low Carbon Diet: A trend or More? C. Carbon Emission: A Killer, or Healer? D. Global Warming: An Approaching Danger 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们可以通过选择低碳食物为应对气候变化做出贡献。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts found a new menu at their canteens: the ‘diet for a cooler planet’ menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field. The options were plant-heavy, locally grown, and involved little or no packaging. (今年秋天，马萨诸塞大学的学生们在食堂里发现了一份新菜单：‘更凉爽星球的饮食’菜单。这意味着以碳友好的方式饲养的香草烤羊肉。其中包括从当地农场采摘的红薯。这些选择以植物为主，在当地种植，很少使用包装或没有包装。)”可知，马萨诸塞大学新菜单的目的是提高低碳意识。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Increasingly, American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car. (越来越多的美国消费者和机构开始考虑他们的食物选择如何影响气候变化。对许多人来说，在杂货店和餐馆里选择一些小的东西比买一辆省油的汽车这样的大选择更容易。)”可知，食物选择影响气候变化，比起节能汽车等昂贵的物品来说，食物选择是人们更容易做到的，由此可推知，食物选择对全球变暖意义重大。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中Sujatha Bergen所说“If, on average, Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet, it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year.(如果美国人平均每周从他们的饮食中减少1/4磅牛肉，这就像每年减少1000万辆汽车。)”可知，牛肉对减少碳排放量有很大的影响。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中“Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference. Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming. (饮食习惯的小改变可能会产生很大的不同。研究指出，粮食系统是全球变暖的一个重要原因。)”以及最后一段中“People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate.(人们开始明白，他们的食物选择对气候有很大的影响。)”可知，本文主要介绍了人们可以通过选择低碳食物为应对气候变化做出贡献。B项“低碳饮食：是趋势，或是更多？”适合做文章标题，故选B项。 D TikTok, the widely popular social media platform, has taken the world by storm with its short-form videos and addictive content.

My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen — teaching English． School started. I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class who were only six years younger than me. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love for the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs (纸团)and whisper dirty words in the back of the room. In college, I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. But in fact, humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster, known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise. My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn’t happening and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes, he left silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes. I felt mildly proud that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period, I had to face him. 注意：1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: After class, I walked to his office, took a deep breath and opened the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Inspired by his advice, I walked toward the classroom, determined to make a change. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】After class, I walked to his office, took a deep breath and opened the door. My boss was sitting in his chair with a poker face, gazing at me silently. I said nothing, wondering if he would fire me right away. He handed me an envelope, which added to my anxiety at that moment. However, my eyes were wide open when I opened it and read the letter. It was not an unemployment letter but a letter with several suggestions about my teaching, one of which was highlighted in red: An educator should respect students’ feelings. Almost immediately, a surge of warmth rose inside me. Inspired by his advice, I walked toward the classroom, determined to make a change. As the bell rang, I stood on the platform, eyes wandering across the classroom. I cleared my throat and announced, “Boys and girls, let’s begin with what you think about my literature lesson.” Suddenly, a complete silence fell over the class. Each student lifted their head and cast me a puzzled look. Flashing a smile, I encouraged, “Anything you’d like to say is welcomed!” At this, a ripple of excitement spread through the classroom. The literature class soon amazingly came to life thanks to their brilliant voices. It was at that time that I fully understood what my boss told me: respecting the students instead of ignoring them will make a difference. 【解析】 【导语】本文以事件为线索展开，讲述了我大学毕业以后在新泽西州西部的一所学校担任英语老师，尽管我很努力在教书，学校的同学们还是不为所动，最后导致我的老板很生气。但是出乎意料的是老板给了我中肯的建议，让我明白教育者要尊重学生的感受，于是我开始改变自己的教学，最终使课堂再次活跃起来的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“下课后，我走到他的办公室，深吸一口气，打开了门。”可知，第一段可描写我觉得自己表现不好以为要失业的时候，老板给了我中肯的建议。 ②由第二段首句内容“在他的建议的启发下，我走向教室，决心做出改变。”可知，第二段可描写我在老板的启发下改进教学后取得的成果。 2.续写线索：担心被解雇——老板给出建议——改进教学——取得成果——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 盯着：gaze at/stare at ② 宣布：announce/declare ③ 鼓励：inspire/encourage 情绪类 ① 焦虑：anxiety/worry ② 迷惑的：puzzled/confused 【点睛】 [高分句型1]However, my eyes were wide open when I opened it and read the letter.（由连词when引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2]He handed me an envelope, which added to my anxiety at that moment. （由关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句） 听力 1-5 B CA B C 6-10 BC A BC 11-15 A A C A B 16-20 C C B A B 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
