B When the pool near Paris where he worked as a lifeguard was closed due to poor economic conditions,Guillaume Pop took jobs at various other pools that were almost empty.At one pool there was a small waterslide(水滑道)，which gave the22-year-old former competitive swimmer an idea:he would make a TikTok video in which he pretended to be a"professional waterslide tester'”. Shooting down a slide in hard hat and hi-viz vest (or smiling broadly in cool shapes to the music,Pop soon became a social media hit.He was hired to "test"slides and other facilities at water parks,swimming pools and campsites all over France.Today,he has more than half a million followers on TikTok and his own real-life waterslide-testing business. No longer working as a lifeguard,he travels the country checking the condition of waterslides,trying them out to determine how fun they are and creating amusing videos to attract customers. "First of all,I check it without water,to make sure it's in an acceptable state,"explains Pop,who must keep up-to-date on water park regulations.If he finds a waterslide needs work-for example,if there are bumpy joints,which can hurt sliders-management will bring in a specialist repairer."After that,I test it with water,"Pop says. Then he moves on to the fun,promotional aspect.Sometimes he takes over a leisure park and invites social media influencers to enjoy it too.In 2022,he took 25 influencers to O'Gliss Park,an enormous water park on the Atlantic coast. Pop estimates he's tested around 700 French waterslides and is now eyeing water parks abroad,such as Switzerland,Portugal and Spain,where he has been testing slides during the winter."It's the best job in the world,"declares Pop,whose videos have received 80 million views."I'm not behind a desk.I'm active and outside in the sun.And I build a positive relationship with customers.In fact,all the children tell me they want to be a waterslide tester！” 24.What motivated Guillaume Pop to make TikTok videos about waterslides? A.His interest in lifeguarding techniques. B.His passion for competitive swimming. C.A suggestion from his friends to become a social media hit. D.The loss of his lifeguard job due to poor economic conditions. 25.How did Guillaume Pop's career change after gaining popularity on TikTok? A.He began working as a manager at a water park. B.He started a real-life waterslide-testing business. C.He joined a professional swimming team in Paris. D.He became a lifeguard at multiple pools in France. 【高三联合检测英语卷第2页（共8页）】 26.Why does Guillaume Pop describe his job as "the best job in the world"? A.He gains a high salary and job security. B.He tests over 700 waterslides in France. C.He gets to travel extensively to different countries. D.He enjoys working outdoors and interacting with customers. 27.Which is a suitable title for the text? A.Guillaume Pop:The TikTok Star of Water Parks B.Guillaume Pop:From Lifeguard to a Traveler in Paris C.Guillaume Pop's Journey:From Pool Closures to Waterslide Adventures D.Guillaume Pop's Journey:Creating Waves in Swimming Pools C A recent survey in the US found that Gen Z-ers and Millennials(千禧一代)visit libraries more often than their parents or grandparents.The young love libraries because they are secure,comfortable,free and-as my 11-year-old would say-"aesthetic".This means they look good in the background of an Instagram post or TikTok video.Libraries are also a great place to meet people.If you're both young and in a library,chances are that you have similar interests. And then,too,there are the books.Gen Z-ers are turning out to be big readers, especially of paper books.Even though they have smartphones,the most limitlessly distracting devices ever invented,in their pockets,many are deliberately choosing to pick up a piece of 15th-century technology instead.They like the fact that books are self-contained and require concentration. There is,sometimes,a sense of nostalgic(cosplay in the way young people read. In New York,for example,the latest TikTok-fuelled craze is reading with strangers in bars. You have to buy a ticket in advance,and then you all gather and sit in silence for 30 minutes, reading whatever book you've brought along.Like an expensive version of going to the library,except that afterwards you all have a drink and talk about books. The very thought of it makes me suffer,but that's because I'm a child of the 1970s and 1980s.To me,reading is a private pleasure,while screens-TV or cinema-are social.I did once,in a fit of ambitious parenting,introduce a "family reading hour",during which my husband and children were pressed to join me at the fireside for some silent reading.It could not have felt more performative if we had dressed up in top hats and crinolines(I旧时的裙衬). But still,I applaud these young readers-for knowing what is good for them,for seeking out human connection,for finding the beauty and pleasure in old institutions,and for bringing new life to the library. 28.What does the underlined word "aesthetic"in paragraph 1 mean? A.Visually appealing. B.Similarly private. C.Spiritually relaxing. D.Economically practical. 29.Why do many young people choose to read paper books despite having smartphones? A.Paper books are cheaper than smartphones. B.Paper books are easier to carry around. C.Paper books are a form of nostalgic entertainment. D.Paper books offer a distraction-free reading experience. 【高三联合检测英语卷第3页（共8页）】 30.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A.The popularity of TikTok in New York. B.A gathering attended by strangers free of charge. C.A new reading trend integrating the old and new. D.Historical costumes and their appeal to young readers. 31.Why does the author mention a"family reading hour"in paragraph 4? A.To highlight her success in parenting the children. B.To illustrate her attempt to combine personal and joint reading habits. C.To criticize the lack of interest in performance among family members. D.To emphasize the importance of dressing formally during family activities. D Today,poetry and science are often considered to be completely separate career paths. However,that wasn't always the case.The mathematician Ada Lovelace and the physicist James Clerk Maxwell were both accomplished poets.Similarly,the poet John Keats was also a licensed surgeon.The combination of these disciplines fell out of favor in the 1800s. Recently,however,there has been a reappearance of interest among scientists in expressing their research through poetry,such as lyrics and haiku,as alternative ways to inspire others with their findings. "Poetry is a great tool for questioning the world,"says Sam Illingworth,a poet and a geoscientist who works at the University of Western Australia.Through workshops and a new science-poetry journal,called Consilience,Illingworth is helping scientists to translate their latest results into poems that can attract appreciation from those outside of their immediate scientific field. Stephany Mazon,a scientist from the University of Helsinki,participated in one of Illingworth's workshops where she and fellow scientists were tasked with writing haikus that highlighted water,a common theme in their research."It was a lot of fun,and surprisingly easy to write the poem,"Mazon says.She plans to continue writing."We do harm ourselves to think that scientists can't be artistic and that art can't be used to communicate scientific ideas,”Mazon says. That viewpoint is echoed by Illingworth,who thinks science communication initiatives are too often dominated by public lectures with their hands-off PowerPoint slides."Actually, when science communication involves writing and sharing poems,it invites a two-way dialogue between experts and nonexperts,"he says.Scientist-poet Manjula Silva,an educator at Imperial College London,agrees,noting that poetry simplifies complex scientific concepts into language that everyone can understand. Scientists and poets are both trying to understand the world and communicate that understanding with others.The distinction between scientists and poets is less than people might think.We're all just people with hopefully really interesting things to say and to share. 32.What trend has been observed recently among scientists? A.A decline in interest in poetry and science. B.A preference for traditional research methods. C.An increase in combining science and poetry. D.A focus on historical figures like Ada Lovelace. 【高三联合检测英语卷第4页（共8页）】 33.How does Sam Illingworth bridge the gap between science and the public? A.By translating classic poetry into different languages. B.By teaching at the University of Western Australia. C.By advocating for more funding in geoscience research. D.By organizing workshops and publishing a science-poetry journal. 34.How did Stephany Mazon feel about the experience of writing a haiku in the workshop? A.It was challenging and difficult. B.It was enjoyable and straightforward. C.It was a waste of time. D.It was too artistic for her taste. 35.What is one advantage of using poetry for science communication? A.It simplifies complex scientific ideas for a general audience. B.It promotes academic research in universities. C.It replaces traditional boring science textbooks. D.It emphasizes the significance of public lectures. 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。 The Path of Diligence(勤奋) Undoubtedly,diligence is one of the key factors in achieving success.While students are often encouraged to work hard at their academics,they may lack the right methods and a positive mindset.36.
