It sparkled in the eyes of the Packard Children’s nurses who cared for her brother Matthew, who had brain cancer. As a child, McCullough spent hours at her brother’s bedside. “I looked up to the nurses. I found their unconditional commitment to my brother’s care remarkable," McCullough says. As a young girl, McCullough practiced nursing by caring for her brother, a desire born out of her intense love for him. She would rub his back, bring him drinks, and even help adjust his lines. She was a natural. Her parents said that she was very caring and always put people first from a young age. When Matthew passed away, McCullough became even more committed to becoming a nurse. She took steps through the years to make her dream come true. In high school, she volunteered at cancer centers and hospitals. “My becoming a nurse is 100% in honor of Matt. I felt the need to channel my grief and turn that tragic moment into something positive," McCullough says. Over time, McCullough realized that she didn’t just want to be a nurse. She wanted to be a pediatric oncology (儿科肿瘤) nurse at Packard Children’s. McCullough wanted to give back to the hospital that had done so much for her brother. Despite feeling like school never came easy, McCullough persisted and got into a respected nursing school. She feels like she worked 10 times harder than other nursing students at the university. She traded going out and spending time with friends for the library. In college, each step brought McCullough closer to her dream. She worked as a nursing assistant at Stanford Health Care for adults with cancer. Then, she transferred to Packard Children’s and worked as a nursing assistant in the Pediatric Transplant Center. Today, She’s a nurse on the same unit that cared for her brother years ago. She is one of those nurses she admired so much as a child. She finds the time, even on very busy days, to truly be there for patients and families to make them feel loved and welcomed. 4. What makes McCullough want to become a nurse? A. Her love for her brother. B. The pain of cancer patients. C. Her natural ability of nursing. D. The volunteering experience. 5. What happened during McCullough’s college life? A. She volunteered at cancer centers. B. She worked harder than at high school. C. She acted as a nursing assistant for children. D. She spent much time with friends in the library. 6.

What can be learned from the text? A. God helps those who help themselves. B. Where there is a will there is a way. C. Behind bad luck comes good luck. D. He who laughs last laughs best. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了McCullough经过不懈努力，实现儿时想当护士的梦想的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“As a young girl, McCullough practiced nursing by caring for her brother, a desire born out of her intense love for him. (作为一个年轻的女孩，McCullough通过照顾她的哥哥来练习护理，这是她对他强烈的爱所产生的愿望)”和第三段““My becoming a nurse is 100% in honor of Matt. I felt the need to channel my grief and turn that tragic moment into something positive,” McCullough says. (“我成为一名护士完全是为了纪念Matt。我觉得有必要疏导我的悲伤，把那个悲惨的时刻变成积极的东西，”McCullough说。)”可知，McCullough当护士的愿望源于对她哥哥强烈的爱。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Then, she transferred to Packard Children’s and worked as a nursing assistant in the Pediatric Transplant Center. (然后，她转到帕卡德儿童医院，在儿科移植中心担任护理助理)”可知，McCullough在儿科移植中心做护理助理。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章叙述的内容可知，McCullough为了实现儿时成为一名护士的梦想而坚持不懈（persistent）的故事。根据第二段“She would rub his back, bring him drinks, and even help adjust his lines.

Indeed, we know there are some physical benefits as well, as dog owners tend to have more active lifestyles. Yet when it comes to conditions like allergies (过敏), we tend to think of pet ownership as exacerbating, not alleviating them. Hence, a recent study published in the journal PLOS One might come as a surprise. The study, published Wednesday, found that children raised with cats and dogs early in life had a 13 to 16 % lower risk of developing all food allergies than those who did not own pets. The researchers engaged in a detailed survey, studying 65,000 children. They found that children who were exposed to dogs either during fetal (胎儿) development, or up to the age of 3 years old were less likely to have nut, milk and egg allergies. This wasn’t true for other pets that weren’t cats and dogs. Indeed, the same research found that children exposed to hamsters during this same period had an increased risk of nut allergies. Yet children who were exposed to cats during their early years were likewise less likely to develop specific allergies — namely, allergies to wheat, soybean and egg. While the study is not the final word on the issue — the researchers note “further studies using oral food challenges are required to more accurately assess the incident of food allergies” — it reinforces preexisting research on the seemingly funny ways that cats influence human development. In addition to adding to the growing body of scientific literature about pets and human health, the PLOS One also reinforces earlier research about the role of the environment in developing allergies. The research repeatedly found that exposure to farmyard dirt, dust and the various fine hairs that fly off animals helps children in their breathing system development. 8. What does the underlined word “exaccrbating” in paragraph 1 best mean? A. Worsening. B. Damaging. C. Improving. D. Benefiting. 9. What agrees with the result of the recent research? A. Kids over 3 will have more food allergies. B. Hamsters cause the most allergies to children. C. All pet ownership will not reduce food allergies. D Cat owners are less likely to be allergic than dog owners. 10. What is the author’s attitude to the PLOS One study? A. Satisfied. B. Objective. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. 11. What is a best title for the text? A. Benefits brought by raising animals B. Pet ownership making kids healthier C. Researches on different food allergies D. Dogs and cats reducing kids’ allergies 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了研究发现小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低，但是同一时期接触仓鼠的儿童患坚果过敏的风险增加。研究还发现，接触农场的泥土、灰尘和从动物身上飞出来的各种细毛有助于儿童呼吸系统的发育。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段的划线句“Yet when it comes to conditions like allergies (过敏), we tend to think of pet ownership as exacerbating, not alleviating them.（然而，当涉及到过敏等情况时，我们往往认为养宠物会……，而不是缓解过敏。）”，句中划线词后“not alleviating them”可知，划线词与后文为反义，故划线词意为“加剧”符合题意，与A选项同义。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句“The study, published Wednesday, found that children raised with cats and dogs early in life had a 13 to 16 % lower risk of developing all food allergies than those who did not own pets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低13%到16%。）”可知，本文主要介绍了研究发现小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低；再根据文章第四段第二句“ Indeed, the same research found that children exposed to hamsters during this same period had an increased risk of nut allergies.（事实上，同样的研究发现，在同一时期接触仓鼠的儿童患坚果过敏的风险增加。）”可推断，并不是所有宠物的饲养都会降低食物过敏。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据根据第二段第二句“The study, published Wednesday, found that children raised with cats and dogs early in life had a 13 to 16 % lower risk of developing all food allergies than those who did not own pets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低13%到16%。）”及文章最后一段第一句“In addition to adding to the growing body of scientific literature about pets and human health, the PLOS One also reinforces earlier research about the role of the environment in developing allergies.（除了为越来越多的关于宠物和人类健康的科学文献增添新的内容外，《公共科学图书馆·综合》还加强了早期关于环境在过敏中所起作用的研究。）”可知，全文只是陈述《公共科学图书馆•综合》研究的内容，可推断，作者的态度是客观的。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容，尤其是第二段第二句“The study, published Wednesday, found that children raised with cats and dogs early in life had a 13 to 16 % lower risk of developing all food allergies than those who did not own pets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低13%到16%。）”可知，狗和猫减少孩子的过敏。故选D。 D As modern cars continue to add new features, the dashboard can become more and more confusing. A variety of lights, buttons, symbols, and switches aren’t easily decoded without referencing the operating manual (手册): Pressing something as harmless as the air recirculation control can become an exercise in suspense. Then there’s the “A” button. A relatively new option, its purpose is complex, and you might be worried about activating it. So what does it do? The A button controls the automatic start-stop system in vehicles. Automatic start-stop functionality was designed for fuel economy and cuts the engine when a car comes to a complete stop. If your vehicle is equipped, you’ll likely notice the engine stopping at red lights or in traffic jams and then revving back up again once you begin to accelerate (加速). Depending on how often you drive, the technology might save you anywhere from 3 percent to 12 percent in fuel costs. But not everyone is a fan of the feature. When it’s engaged and the engine is off, drivers may have trouble maintaining a comfortable cabin temperature or lose the ability to quickly accelerate when coming onto a highway. If a vehicle operator wants to disable it, they press the A button. Once the button is engaged, the vehicle’s engine will run uninterrupted. Often, the A button will light up, meaning you’ve elected to disable the function. The catch? The A button is typically only good for each ride. Every time you start the car, you’ll have to press it to suppress the automatic start-stop function. Some drivers get into the habit of pushing the A button every time they get in their car; others opt for an aftermarket solution to permanently disable the feature without having to do it during every drive. If you find it disconcerting to have the engine stop every time you're at a light, the A button is the solution. 12. What can be learned from paragraph 1? A. Cars are becoming more difficult to drive. B. People can do exercises in cars nowadays. C. The operating manual is a must for driving. D. Many new functions are being added to cars. 13. Why is the A button used? A. To save fuel. B. To help stop the car. C. To accelerate the car quickly. D. To react to traffic lights smartly. 14. What happens if the A button is disabled? A. The engine is stopped. B. The A button light is on. C. The car keeps a constant temperature. D. The car needs an aftermarket solution. 15. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A social survey. B. A science report. C. A manual to a car. D. A magazine about cars. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了汽车新功能：A按钮（自动启停按钮）。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段首句“As modern cars continue to add new features, the dashboard can become more and more confusing.(随着现代汽车不断增加新功能，仪表板可能会变得越来越令人困惑。)”可知，现代汽车不断增加新功能，仪表盘可能会变得越来越令人困惑，由此可知，许多新功能都被加到了汽车上。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Automatic start-stop functionality was designed for fuel economy and cuts the engine when a car comes to a complete stop.(自动启停功能是为了燃油经济性而设计的，当汽车完全停止时，它会切断发动机。)”可知，设计A按钮的目的是节约燃料。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Often, the A button will light up, meaning you’ve elected to disable the function.(通常，A按钮会亮起，这意味着你已选择禁用该功能。)”可知，如果车辆操作员选择禁用该功能，A按钮会亮起来。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Then there’s the ‘A’ button. A relatively new option, its purpose is complex, and you might be worried about activating it. So what does it do?(然后是‘A’按钮。作为一个相对较新的选项，它的用途很复杂，你可能会担心激活它。那么它会做什么呢？)”可知，文章介绍了汽车增加的一个新功能：A按钮，所以文章可能摘自关于汽车的杂志。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出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you’re starting construction on the home of your dreams, consider the benefits of building with sustainability and energy efficiency in mind.

My dad always took me down to the bush every weekend and we collected many sticks and stones to add to our collection. I wasn’t like any ordinary girl as I loved the outdoors even as a young toddler. I was never into dolls and tea parties. Soon I became old enough to venture out on my own. When I ventured forth through the Australian bush land, I felt as if I was in heaven. There was nothing more beautiful than feeling the cool air brushing across my back. The leaves crushed beneath my feet at every step. I felt as if I was home. As the sun dipped down beyond the horizon, there was nothing more to do than to head back home. On my way I heard a screeching（尖叫声）. It was the most horrible sound I had ever heard in my life. Sure enough, I just had to investigate. In the dead of night, I headed towards the screech and came across a lake or river of some sort. Looking up and down the river, I couldn’t find a way to cross it. In much shame I decided to give up. It was about one o’ clock in the morning and I thought my dad must be getting worried. As I moved away from the lake, there was only one problem that I did not remember which direction I came from. My brain told me left but my instinct (直觉) told me right. In my past experiences I had always gone with my instinct. So of course I went with my instinct. As I walked off into the distance, I could see the sun breaking out in my distant view. 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。 After what seemed like hours, I felt a sigh of relief rush through my body. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “You are alive!” my dad shouted, “You are alive!” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: After what seemed like hours, I felt a sigh of relief rush through my body. Emerging from the dense bush, I found myself standing in a familiar place, the collection of sticks and stones from our weekend adventures with my dad scattered (散落) around. It was then that I realized I had circled back to our special spot. The familiar rustling of leaves and the cool air on my back reassured me that I was indeed near home. In the foggy distance, a fuzzy but familiar figure stood still beneath the tall tree in front of my house. It was my dad! I gathered all my strength and ran towards the house. Paragraph 2: “You are alive!” my dad shouted, “You are alive!” My dad’s voice echoed through the early morning, filled with a mixture of relief and concern. I threw myself into the warm embrace of my worried father, exhausted but relieved. He had been searching crazily for me as the night wore on. I shared my adventure, from the mysterious screech to the challenging encounter with the river. My dad, though relieved, couldn’t help but chuckle at my determination to explore even in the dead of night. From that day forward, our weekend adventures became even more special, filled with stories and laughter under the Australian sky. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者一次独自探险澳大利亚丛林，遇到未知的挑战，最终依靠直觉找到回家的路的经历。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“似乎过了几个小时，我感到全身都松了一口气。”以及第二段首句内容““你还活着!”爸爸喊道，“你还活着!””可知，第一段可描写作者终于看到了熟悉的路，也看到了一直等候自己的爸爸。 ②由第二段首句内容““你还活着!”爸爸喊道，“你还活着!””可知，第二段可描写作者扑进爸爸的怀中，非常开心自己终于回到了家。 2.续写线索：作者从幼时开始就是一个喜欢冒险的女孩，作者的爸爸每周都带作者去灌木丛——作者一次独自去了澳大利亚丛林——在回家的路上，作者听到一声尖叫声，好奇使得作者决定前去查看——然而作者并没有什么收获，夜已深，作者想到爸爸肯定会担忧，决定回家——回家的路上，作者已经不记得来时的路，于是作者决定跟着直觉走——经历很长时间，天快亮的时候，作者终于看到了熟悉的路，也找到了回家的方向——作者的爸爸一直在焦急地等待着作者，此时看到安全无恙的女儿，作者的父亲也终于如释重负——作者常常回忆起这一夜的探险 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①聚集：gather/build up ②充满：be filled with/be full of ③忍不住：can’t help but/can’t help doing 情绪类 ①担忧的：worried/concerned/anxious ②精疲力竭的：exhausted/shattered/worn-out 【点睛】【高分句型1】After what seemed like hours, I felt a sigh of relief rush through my body.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】He had been searching crazily for me as the night wore on.（运用了as引导的状语从句） 1-5BABCB 6-10 BBABC 11-15 CCACC 16-20 CBAAA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年新高考联考协作体高三 2月收心考试 高三英语试卷 注意事项： 1. 答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

B At age 10, McCullough got a glimpse of her dream job. It sparkled in the eyes of the Packard Children’s nurses who cared for her brother Matthew, who had brain cancer. As a child, McCullough spent hours at her brother’s bedside. “I looked up to the nurses. I found their unconditional commitment to my brother’s care remarkable," McCullough says. As a young girl, McCullough practiced nursing by caring for her brother, a desire born out of her intense love for him. She would rub his back, bring him drinks, and even help adjust his lines. She was a natural. Her parents said that she was very caring and always put people first from a young age. When Matthew passed away, McCullough became even more committed to becoming a nurse. She took steps through the years to make her dream come true. In high school, she volunteered at cancer centers and hospitals. “My becoming a nurse is 100% in honor of Matt. I felt the need to channel my grief and turn that tragic moment into something positive," McCullough says. Over time, McCullough realized that she didn’t just want to be a nurse. She wanted to be a pediatric oncology (儿科肿瘤) nurse at Packard Children’s. McCullough wanted to give back to the hospital that had done so much for her brother. Despite feeling like school never came easy, McCullough persisted and got into a respected nursing school. She feels like she worked 10 times harder than other nursing students at the university. She traded going out and spending time with friends for the library. In college, each step brought McCullough closer to her dream. She worked as a nursing assistant at Stanford Health Care for adults with cancer. Then, she transferred to Packard Children’s and worked as a nursing assistant in the Pediatric Transplant Center. Today, She’s a nurse on the same unit that cared for her brother years ago. She is one of those nurses she admired so much as a child. She finds the time, even on very busy days, to truly be there for patients and families to make them feel loved and welcomed. 4. What makes McCullough want to become a nurse? A. Her love for her brother. B. The pain of cancer patients. C. Her natural ability of nursing. D. The volunteering experience. 5. What happened during McCullough’s college life? A. She volunteered at cancer centers. B. She worked harder than at high school. C. She acted as a nursing assistant for children. D. She spent much time with friends in the library. 6. What words can be used to describe McCullough? A. Changeable and respectable. B. Hardworking and demanding. C. Professional and adventurous. D. Considerate and persistent. 7. What can be learned from the text? A. God helps those who help themselves. B. Where there is a will there is a way. C. Behind bad luck comes good luck. D. He who laughs last laughs best. C There are well-documented mental health benefits to pet ownership, as much research has shown. Indeed, we know there are some physical benefits as well, as dog owners tend to have more active lifestyles. Yet when it comes to conditions like allergies (过敏), we tend to think of pet ownership as exacerbating, not alleviating them. Hence, a recent study published in the journal PLOS One might come as a surprise. The study, published Wednesday, found that children raised with cats and dogs early in life had a 13 to 16 % lower risk of developing all food allergies than those who did not own pets. The researchers engaged in a detailed survey, studying 65,000 children. They found that children who were exposed to dogs either during fetal (胎儿) development, or up to the age of 3 years old were less likely to have nut, milk and egg allergies. This wasn’t true for other pets that weren’t cats and dogs. Indeed, the same research found that children exposed to hamsters during this same period had an increased risk of nut allergies. Yet children who were exposed to cats during their early years were likewise less likely to develop specific allergies — namely, allergies to wheat, soybean and egg. While the study is not the final word on the issue — the researchers note “further studies using oral food challenges are required to more accurately assess the incident of food allergies” — it reinforces preexisting research on the seemingly funny ways that cats influence human development. In addition to adding to the growing body of scientific literature about pets and human health, the PLOS One also reinforces earlier research about the role of the environment in developing allergies. The research repeatedly found that exposure to farmyard dirt, dust and the various fine hairs that fly off animals helps children in their breathing system development. 8. What does the underlined word “exaccrbating” in paragraph 1 best mean? A. Worsening. B. Damaging. C. Improving. D. Benefiting. 9. What agrees with the result of the recent research? A. Kids over 3 will have more food allergies. B. Hamsters cause the most allergies to children. C. All pet ownership will not reduce food allergies. D. Cat owners are less likely to be allergic than dog owners. 10. What is the author’s attitude to the PLOS One study? A. Satisfied. B. Objective. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. 11. What is a best title for the text? A. Benefits brought by raising animals B. Pet ownership making kids healthier C. Researches on different food allergies D. Dogs and cats reducing kids’ allergies D As modern cars continue to add new features, the dashboard can become more and more confusing. A variety of lights, buttons, symbols, and switches aren’t easily decoded without referencing the operating manual (手册): Pressing something as harmless as the air recirculation control can become an exercise in suspense. Then there’s the “A” button. A relatively new option, its purpose is complex, and you might be worried about activating it. So what does it do? The A button controls the automatic start-stop system in vehicles. Automatic start-stop functionality was designed for fuel economy and cuts the engine when a car comes to a complete stop. If your vehicle is equipped, you’ll likely notice the engine stopping at red lights or in traffic jams and then revving back up again once you begin to accelerate (加速). Depending on how often you drive, the technology might save you anywhere from 3 percent to 12 percent in fuel costs. But not everyone is a fan of the feature. When it’s engaged and the engine is off, drivers may have trouble maintaining a comfortable cabin temperature or lose the ability to quickly accelerate when coming onto a highway. If a vehicle operator wants to disable it, they press the A button. Once the button is engaged, the vehicle’s engine will run uninterrupted. Often, the A button will light up, meaning you’ve elected to disable the function. The catch? The A button is typically only good for each ride. Every time you start the car, you’ll have to press it to suppress the automatic start-stop function. Some drivers get into the habit of pushing the A button every time they get in their car; others opt for an aftermarket solution to permanently disable the feature without having to do it during every drive. If you find it disconcerting to have the engine stop every time you're at a light, the A button is the solution. 12. What can be learned from paragraph 1? A.

My dad always took me down to the bush every weekend and we collected many sticks and stones to add to our collection. I wasn’t like any ordinary girl as I loved the outdoors even as a young toddler. I was never into dolls and tea parties. Soon I became old enough to venture out on my own. When I ventured forth through the Australian bush land, I felt as if I was in heaven. There was nothing more beautiful than feeling the cool air brushing across my back. The leaves crushed beneath my feet at every step. I felt as if I was home. As the sun dipped down beyond the horizon, there was nothing more to do than to head back home. On my way I heard a screeching（尖叫声）. It was the most horrible sound I had ever heard in my life. Sure enough, I just had to investigate. In the dead of night, I headed towards the screech and came across a lake or river of some sort. Looking up and down the river, I couldn’t find a way to cross it. In much shame I decided to give up. It was about one o’ clock in the morning and I thought my dad must be getting worried. As I moved away from the lake, there was only one problem that I did not remember which direction I came from. My brain told me left but my instinct (直觉) told me right. In my past experiences I had always gone with my instinct. So of course I went with my instinct. As I walked off into the distance, I could see the sun breaking out in my distant view. 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。 After what seemed like hours, I felt a sigh of relief rush through my body. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “You are alive!” my dad shouted, “You are alive!” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5BABCB 6-10 BBABC 11-15 CCACC 16-20 CBAAA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
