B Wooden houses surrounded by a thick forest, classical music playing softly in the background, a very special cafe, three meals a day and several outdoor activity areas. This sounds like a dream vacation arrangement (安排). But this is not a place for people. It’s for cats in the province of Samsun, Türkiye. Kedi Kasabas, or “cat town”, is one interesting place in the country, a place where cats can experience what real comfort is! The town, which covers an area of around 20 acres, is run by the local city and most admitted guests have a hard backstory. “All cats here are homeless and usually go through suffering s before being brought here. They are either injured or mentally suffer. We treat them and put them back into the town. The environment here is really beautiful for them,” Faruk Kan, a Kedi Kasabas vet, said. Kan is not the only vet working at the shelter. There’s a whole team looking after the cats and making sure all their needs are met. The place even has a special area for sick or injured cats, where they receive personalized (个性化的) treatment. There are currently 150 animals living in “cat town”, and the number keeps rising. There are wooden houses where they can rest, and also houses designed for socializing. During the winter they are provided with heated accommodation, so feeling convenient and warm is a sure thing for these furry creatures. The love for cats seems to be a Turkish favourite. Istanbul is known for being home to several hundred thousand cats. There, people take care of street cats like kings. The four-legged friends are fed and kept healthy and they have already become part of the city view. Even though cats may have a happy life outdoors in the forest or wandering around in the city streets, there’s nothing like having a stable (稳定的) home, lying next to a human friend. 24 What can be learned about “cat town”? A. It is quite difficult to reach. B. It is peaceful and comfortable. C. It is very expensive to run. D. It serves special coffee to visitors. 25. What does the underlined word “guests” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Cats. B. Visitors. C. Workers. D. Volunteers. 26. What do we know about the cats in “cat town”? A. They are thrown by their owners. B. They came from pet lovers. C. They are friendly to humans. D. They used to suffer a lot. 27. Which does the author think is the best place for a cat probably? A. The forest. B. The city streets. C. A human’s home. D. A pet hospital. C Workers continue to search the ruins of a large earthquake that hit Morocco Friday. Officials say almost 2,500 were killed in the quake, but that they expect that number will rise. The United Nations said the magnitude 6.8 earthquake affected 300,000 people. The damage (损失) was great because the starting point of the shaking was not far below the ground. It is the strongest quake to hit the North African nation since 1900. And, it is reported to be the country’s deadliest since 1960, when at least 12,000 people were killed in and near the city of Agadir. So far, Morocco has accepted support from four countries — Spain, Qatar, Great Britain and the United Arab Emirates. Other nations have offered help as well. Groups from the Moroccan army left Monday from Amizmiz to move into the small mountain villages. Heavy equipment was sent to clear the roads and both visitors and local people lined up to give blood. Many people continued to sleep outside, fearing smaller earthquakes that often follow a major one. In the village of Imgdal, women and children gathered outside and some kept warm around an open fire on Monday morning. On a road near the town of Adassil, near the epicenter (震中), one rescue (救援) worker, Ayman Koait, was trying to clear the rocks that were restraining trucks from getting by. He said other roads were in bad shape. “We’re trying to open them, too,” said Ayman Koait. People said they dug through the ruins of their homes looking for relatives. They also moved rocks and walls looking for important items. Many of the homes are made from wood, rock and mud, which made them fall easily when the ground started shaking. One military (军方的) worker said “it is difficult to pull people out alive” because the walls turned into ruins and did not leave any space for air. 28. Why was the earthquake so serious? A. It happened close to the ground. B. It broke out at midnight. C. Rescue was not timely enough. D. There was no proper protection. 29. Why did the local people keep staying outside after the earthquake? A. To receive supplies. B. To get ready for leaving for other towns. C. To avoid possible following ones. D. To keep themselves warm around open fires. 30. What does the underlined word “restraining” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Guiding. B. Preventing. C. Repairing. D. Supporting. 31. Why did the military worker think the rescue was almost hopeless? A. The villages are out of reach. B. The roads were badly damaged. C. The damaged areas are too close to the epicenter. D. The special houses made it hard for people to be alive. D The 37-year-old artist, Kelly McKernan, from Nashville, Tennessee calls her works “surreal (超现实的)”. She says they are “dealing with discomfort in the human journey”. Living as an artist is difficult enough. Now McKernan faces another challenge: artificial intelligence (AI). About a year ago, McKernan began seeing online images (图像) strangely similar to her own. She soon learned that companies were feeding artwork into AI systems to train software programs to create similar images. McKernan said, “I didn’t give my agreement for my name or works to be used this way.” McKernan said she even tried to contact some of the companies to say “Hey, little artist here, I know you’re not thinking of me at all, but it would be really cool if you didn’t use my work like this.” But there was no answer. In January, McKernan, and two other artists, Karla Ortiz and Sarah Andersen, started action by law against three image-generator companies: Stability AI, Stable Diffusion and Midjourney. They also included the online gallery DeviantArt in the case. The artists are seeking to protect their copyrighted works and their careers. They say the AI image-generators violate (侵犯) the rights of millions of artists by using their artworks for training and then producing similar works that compete against the originals (原作). The artists are seeking damages and a court order to stop AI companies from using their works without being allowed. Karla Ortiz works in the entertainment industry. Her work has been used in several well-known movies, including Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Jurassic World. She feared that film companies would think artworks from artists cost too much. Why, she asked, would film companies buy artworks from artists if they can pay $30 a month for AI-created works? McKernan agreed: “Will I even have any work a year from now?” 32. What troubles artist Kelly McKernan? A. The great similarity in her works. B. The competition among the artists. C. Her works being recreated without her agreement. D. Her customers’ increasingly high requirements. 33. How were McKernan’s words dealt with by some of the companies in paragraph 3? A. They were treated properly. B. They were given timely attention. C. They were regarded as impolite. D. They were answered with silence. 34. What may make film companies use AI-created works according to Karla Ortiz? A. Their low prices. B. Their better quality. C. Their higher safety. D. Their good service. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Human Artists Lose Their Jobs B. Artists Fight Back Against AI C. Artworks Can Be Created by AI D. Artists Should Accept AI Works 第二节(共5 小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Help Your Garden Get Through the Heat Record-breaking heat is affecting plants in many places around the world. But gardening expert Jessica Damiano says selecting the right plants and a little care could save them. Damiano says that in serious heat, and when that heat is dry, the soil loses water in it quickly. ____36____ This requires them to use energy to cool down and use water. This energy should be spent on growth, flowering, fruiting and reproducing. The stress often completely weakens the plant. ____37____ These systems allow the plants to reach distant sources of wetness when the nearby area dries out. Many foreign plants, including most plants that live for just one year, have root systems that are not deep. This means they must depend on the top few centimeters of soil for all of their water needs. ____38____ Planting advice When planting, Damiano says she always covers root balls with fungi (真菌) called mycorrhizae. It helps roots grow and helps plants deal with high temperature. She also treats her plants once a month with two materials: a seaweed-containing fish mixture and a vitamin—hormone—kelp material. Seaweed and kelp are plants that grow in water. ____39____ These materials also help plants grow quickly after dividing and planting. Finally, Damiano says the last addition is a good deal of covering on top. Covering not only keeps things looking clean, but it also helps to keep soil wetness and soil temperatures even. ____40____ Covering can mean the difference between life and death when it gets hot. A. When the top soil dries up, so do they. B. Study which plants are native to your area. C. And it also keeps unwanted plants from growing. D. She has watered her flower garden just two times this summer. E. They have been proved to help other plants in difficult environments. F. Plants will turn to their own limited water storing when they need water. G. When plants are native to an area, they naturally develop deep, large root systems. 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和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When I was a boy growing up, we had a potato garden half the size of a football field.

I am 23 years old, I am a college student, and I have a story that I feel should be shared with the world. I come from a family that had never had a single record of ancestry with autism (自闭症), until the day I was born. When I was two years old, my parents were still getting used to the lifestyle of raising a normal kid, but what they had noticed was what they considered “out of the ordinary” behavior. Whatever toys I played with, I placed them in a straight line. When I was not satisfied, I got angry easily. Soon after my parents noticed these signs they took me to a child expert, who eventually informed them that I was diagnosed (诊断) with a type of autism, a disorder that delays the nervous growth of a child’s brain. My diagnosis was in 1999, a time when autism was still not commonly understood and was still being observed. At first, my parents were shocked at the news from an expert that I was going to grow up blind, but they (and I) were not prepared for how the following events would completely change our lives forever. As I got older, I began to change from keeping myself alone to getting with other kids once I entered public school in first grade. I noticed how the other kids were able to answer questions in class a lot faster than I could understand. Because of my slow thinking, it took me two minutes to come up with an answer. From that year on, I received special accommodations for my studies, such as sitting in front of the class to read the blackboard better, and taking longer time on tests. 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。 My teacher and classmates tried their best to help me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks to my classmates, I made great changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 顶尖联盟2023—2024学年高一秋季期中检测 英 语 考生注意： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将考生号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡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，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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2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。 例: How much is the shirt?
