Children’s Day is celebrated by different countries on different days of the year. It is a holiday that celebrates the happiness, healthy growth, and bright future of children. China Children’s Day is on June 1st. On this day, pupils go to school as usual, but often for only half of the day. The school day tends to involve various Children’s Day activities instead of regular classes. The celebration doesn’t end at school. After school, parents usually take their children out to play. They often celebrate by having a picnic in the park or by going to an amusement park, the cinema, or the zoo. Many tourist attractions, including the Forbidden City, have discounts on admission or are completely free for children on this day. Japan The Japanese people celebrate Children’s Day on the fifth day of the fifth month every year. Families fly colorful carp flags (鲤鱼旗) from their homes, as carps represent determination and vigor in Japanese folklore (民间传说). They display figurines of Samurai Warriors in their homes to symbolize strength and bravery. Children enjoy sticky rice cakes in Quercus dentata leaves and participate in events around the country like traditional Japanese plays. India Children’s Day is celebrated on November14 every year. This date marks the birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of independent India. Nehru was very fond of children and so, to honor him and acknowledge his work for children, the 14th of every November is set as Children’s Day. On this occasion, children of India usually get gifts from their parents. Many schools allow students to attend their classes in colored dresses. Special programs are held by the children themselves. Many schools hold activities such as camping trips or free movies on Children’s Day to allow students to have fun. New Zealand In New Zealand, Children’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of March each year. Fun community events are held throughout the country and include games, carnival, food, traditional haka dancing, and more. 1. What do Chinese do on Children’s Day? A. Pupils go to school as usual B. The celebration end at school. C. Parents usually take children out to play D. Many tourist attractions have no discounts 2. When is the Children’s Day in Japan? A. June 1st B. May 5th C. November14 D. The first Sunday of March 3. Where can you probably find the passage? A. Tourist brochure B. Book review C. Science report D. News report B Mr. Jafri is a 44-year-old artist from England. As the COVID-19 spread and many countries went into lockdown, Mr. Jafri was in Dubai. Rather than feeling stuck because he was unable to move on, Mr. Jafri decided to take on a huge project that could “make a really big difference.” He decided to create the world’s largest painting in a way that would involve people from around the world. He asked children to send him pictures showing how they were feeling during the pandemic. He got artwork from kids in 140 different countries, some of which was included in his painting. Using the children’s ideas as a starting point, Mr. Jafri began to paint. He created the painting in the dance hall of a closed hotel. The painting, called “The Journey of Humanity”, is over 1,600 square meters. It took Mr. Jafri seven months, up to 20 hours per day. He hurt his back by bending over so much while he painted. It took over 1,000 paintbrushes and 6,300 liters of paint to create the painting. When he finished last September, he had set a Guinness World Record for the world’s largest painting. The painting was roughly the size of four basketball courts. Since Mr. Jafri’s goal was to raise money to help children, the painting was cut up into 70 large pieces. Mr. Jafri hoped that by selling the painting separately, he could raise $30 million. But when the sale ended on March 22, Mr. Jafri did much better than that. And he didn’t have to cut up the pieces. The whole artwork was sold for $62 million, the fourth highest price ever paid for a painting by a living artist. Andre Abdoune, a French businessman, bought all 70 of the pieces. “The painting was very powerful when I saw it,” Mr. Abdoune said, “And for me, it would have been a mistake to separate the pieces.” Knowing that the money would go to charity also helped Mr. Abdoune decide to pay more. He plans to build a special building to show the artwork off. 4. Why did Mr. Jafri ask children to send him pictures? A. Because he felt like breaking the old thinking pattern and creating something new. B. Because he was unable to figure out what to paint, wanting to be inspired by kids. C. Because kids felt stuck, for they were unable to move on during lockdown. D. Because he wanted people worldwide to participate in expressing their feelings. 5. Why did the author mention“paintbrushes and paint”in Paragraph 3? A. To criticize Mr. Jafri for overuse. B. To show the massiveness of the artwork. C To make a comparison with other painters. D. To explain what Mr. Jafri used for painting. 6. Why did Mr. Abdoune pay more? A. Because he has been fond of charity. B. Because the painting impressed him. C. Because he wanted to help more children. D. Because he didn’t want to separate the pieces. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A New Guinness World Record B. An England Artist Achieved His Dream C. Pandemic Inspires People On Their Paintings D. World’s Largest Painting Sells For $62 Million C AI is a keyword in our time. Can artificial intelligence uncover a liar? It sounds like science fiction, but such an AI system is possible. Rada Mihalcea, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, has worked on deceit (欺骗) detection for about a decade. The first thing that researchers working on artificial intelligence and machine learning need is data. In the case of the work that Mihalcea did, they began with videos from actual court cases. For example, a defendant speaking in a trial in which he is found to have committed a crime could provide an example of deceit; they also employed words from witnesses as either example of truthful or deceitful statements. Altogether, they analyzed 121 videos — about half represented dishonest statements, and half truthful. It was this data that they used to build machine learning deceit detectors that ultimately (最终) had between a 60 to 75 percent accuracy rate. One thing the system noticed is the use of pronouns — people who are lying would tend to less often use the word “I” or “we”, Mihalcea explains. “Instead, people who are lying would more often use ‘you,’ ‘yours’.” Besides, someone telling a lie would use “stronger words” such as “absolutely,” and “very,” that reflect certainty, while interestingly, people telling the truth were more likely to use words such as “maybe” or “probably.” As for gestures, she points out that someone being deceitful would be more likely to look directly into the eyes of the person questioning them. They also tended to use both hands when gesturing. However, Mihalcea’s work is “far from perfection,” she admits. “As a researcher, we are content that we were able to get to 75 percent accuracy. But looked at another way, that’s an error rate of one in four.” Ultimately, she sees technology like this as being assistive for people — it could indicate that it noticed something “unusual” in a speaker’s statement, and then perhaps have a person “investigate more.” 8 How did researchers create the deceit detection using artificial intelligence? A. They interviewed criminals in court cases. B. They involved AI system in a virtual trial. C. They employed witnesses to identify dishonest criminals. D. They fed the system with both truthful and deceitful statements. 9. What is a liar likely to do according to paragraph 3? A. Gesture with one hand. B. Question others directly. C. Use pronouns repeatedly. D. Speak with strong certainty. 10. How does Mihalcea feel about her work? A. It completely lives up to her expectation. B. It can be used as an aid for human beings. C. It can replace human beings to uncover a lie. D. It successfully lowers the error rate of detection. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. The use of pronouns and gestures in lie B. Rada Mihalcea’s research on lie detection by using AI C. The limitations of current lie detection technology D. Accuracy rate of machine learning deceit detectors D Evidence of planning has been unearthed in the ruins of cities in China, India, Egypt, the Mediterranean world, and South and Central America. Early examples of efforts toward planned urban development include orderly street systems, functional quarters in a city and advanced systems of defense, water supply, and drainage. Most of the evidence is in smaller cities built in relatively short periods as colonies (殖民地). For hundreds of years during the Middle Ages, there was little building of cities in Europe. Eventually towns grew up as centers of church or authority, of marketing or trade. As the urban population grew, problems of overcrowding in early European cities, the blocking out of air and light and very poor cleanness, certain quarters of the cities restricted to different nationalities, classes, or trades just came, as still occur in many cities of the developing world now. The physical form of medieval and Renaissance (文艺复兴时期) towns and cities followed the pattern of the village, spreading along a street or a crossroads in circular patterns or in irregular shapes. Most streets were little more than footpaths and even in major European cities paving was not widely introduced before the 12th century. As the population of the city grew, walls were often expanded, but few cities at the time exceeded a mile in length. Sometımes sites were changed, and many new cities appeared with increasing population—frequently about one day’s walk apart. Towns ranged in population from several hundred to perhaps 40,000. Conscious attempts to plan cities reappeared in Europe during the Renaissance, with their prime goal to glorify a ruler or a state. From the 16th century to the end of the 18th, many cities were laid out and built splendidly. The result may have pleased and inspired the citizens, but it rarely contributed to their health, to the comfort of their homes, or to efficiency in manufacturing, distribution, and marketing. In much of the world, city plans were based on the concept of a centrally located public space. The plans differed, however, in their principles for residential development. In the United States the New England town grew around a central public space. Also from the New England town came the tradition of the freestanding single-family house that became the norm for big cities. The central plaza, place, or square provided a central point for European city plans as well. In contrast to American residential development, though, European domestic architecture was dominated by the attached house. 12. What does the underlined word “as” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. problems B. early European cities C. certain quarters of the cities D. nationalities 13. Why did the Europeans make city plans during the Renaissance? A. To comfort residential homes. B. To promote distribution and marketing C. To contribute to citizen’s health D. To honor a ruler or a state 14. What can be inferred based on the text? A. There was much building of cities in Europe during the Middle Ages. B. Some cities had orderly street systems in countries like China, India, Egypt in history. C. The New England town in the United States grew around a central public space. D. As the population of the city grew, many cities got enlarged in the Renaissance . 15 Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The development of urban planning B. Evidence of cities development. C. Traditional urban forms. D. The development of cities in the Renaissance. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Photography for me has always been a key.

Many times, a good friend will know what you need before you even ask for it, and they’ll want to offer a helping hand. That’s what happened to two friends in Caddo Hills High School. When one differently abled young man needed help, his friend went above and beyond. When Brandon and Tanner met, Brandon was using a hand-push wheelchair. The chair was becoming kind of a pain for Brandon as he had to push his way down the halls from class to class around Caddo Hills High School. “My arms would get really tired and I would have to stop and take rests,” said Brandon. Sometimes when they were together, Brandon would ask Tanner to push his wheelchair. Tanner was happy to help. Most often, Tanner would offer to help and he noticed how hard using this wheelchair was on his friend. Tanner thought that if his friend had had an electric wheelchair, life would be easier for him. But Brandon’s family was unable to afford it. Seeing how much his friend struggled in his wheelchair, Tanner made up his mind to do something about it, “He’s just been a really good friend and I wanted to do him a favor. I just felt like I needed to do it and I wanted to do it” Tanner explained. Then the enthusiastic high school student became devoted to getting his friend a wheelchair. He got an after-school job at an auto repair shop and he worked there every afternoon. In order to help his friend out, Tanner worked part-time for two years. All of the money he earned went towards saving for a self-powered wheelchair. That moment finally came in late February, when he would present Brandon with a life-changing gift during the school day. 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。 Initially, Tanner had planned on giving Brandon all the money he had saved. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Brandon cried when he first got the wheelchair. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 保密 ★ 启用前 全市 2023~2024学年度第二学期期末教学质量监测考试 高二 英语试题 注意事项： 1.本试卷共10页，四个部分，共65小题，满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 2.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 3.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上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。 第Ⅰ卷 (选择题 共95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.

They often celebrate by having a picnic in the park or by going to an amusement park, the cinema, or the zoo.”（放学后，父母通常会带孩子出去玩。他们经常通过在公园野餐或去游乐园、电影院或动物园来庆祝。）可知，中国的父母通常会带孩子出去玩。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Japan部分的“The Japanese people celebrate Children’s Day on the fifth day of the fifth month every year.”（日本人每年五月的第五天庆祝儿童节。）可知，日本的儿童节是在五月五日。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据文章第一段中的“Children’s Day is celebrated by different countries on different days of the year. (儿童节在一年中的不同日子由不同的国家庆祝。)”可知，文章介绍了不同国家的儿童节庆祝方式，可以推测这篇文章可能出现在旅游手册中。故选A。 B Mr. Jafri is a 44-year-old artist from England. As the COVID-19 spread and many countries went into lockdown, Mr. Jafri was in Dubai. Rather than feeling stuck because he was unable to move on, Mr. Jafri decided to take on a huge project that could “make a really big difference.” He decided to create the world’s largest painting in a way that would involve people from around the world. He asked children to send him pictures showing how they were feeling during the pandemic. He got artwork from kids in 140 different countries, some of which was included in his painting. Using the children’s ideas as a starting point, Mr. Jafri began to paint. He created the painting in the dance hall of a closed hotel. The painting, called “The Journey of Humanity”, is over 1,600 square meters. It took Mr. Jafri seven months, up to 20 hours per day. He hurt his back by bending over so much while he painted. It took over 1,000 paintbrushes and 6,300 liters of paint to create the painting. When he finished last September, he had set a Guinness World Record for the world’s largest painting. The painting was roughly the size of four basketball courts. Since Mr. Jafri’s goal was to raise money to help children, the painting was cut up into 70 large pieces. Mr. Jafri hoped that by selling the painting separately, he could raise $30 million. But when the sale ended on March 22, Mr. Jafri did much better than that. And he didn’t have to cut up the pieces. The whole artwork was sold for $62 million, the fourth highest price ever paid for a painting by a living artist. Andre Abdoune, a French businessman, bought all 70 of the pieces. “The painting was very powerful when I saw it,” Mr. Abdoune said, “And for me, it would have been a mistake to separate the pieces.” Knowing that the money would go to charity also helped Mr. Abdoune decide to pay more. He plans to build a special building to show the artwork off. 4. Why did Mr. Jafri ask children to send him pictures? A. Because he felt like breaking the old thinking pattern and creating something new. B. Because he was unable to figure out what to paint, wanting to be inspired by kids. C. Because kids felt stuck, for they were unable to move on during lockdown. D. Because he wanted people worldwide to participate in expressing their feelings. 5. Why did the author mention“paintbrushes and paint”in Paragraph 3? A. To criticize Mr. Jafri for overuse. B. To show the massiveness of the artwork. C. To make a comparison with other painters. D. To explain what Mr. Jafri used for painting. 6. Why did Mr. Abdoune pay more? A. Because he has been fond of charity. B. Because the painting impressed him. C. Because he wanted to help more children. D. Because he didn’t want to separate the pieces. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A New Guinness World Record B. An England Artist Achieved His Dream C. Pandemic Inspires People On Their Paintings D. World’s Largest Painting Sells For $62 Million 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了世界上最大的画作以6200万美元的价格售出。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Mr. Jafri is a 44-year-old artist from England. As the COVID-19 spread and many countries went into lockdown, Mr. Jafri was in Dubai. Rather than feeling stuck because he was unable to move on, Mr. Jafri decided to take on a huge project that could “make a really big difference.”（Jafri先生是一位来自英国的44岁艺术家。随着COVID-19的传播，许多国家进入封锁状态，贾夫里正在迪拜。贾夫里没有因为无法前进而感到停滞不前，而是决定承担一个可能“产生巨大影响”的大项目。） 以及第二段第一、二句“He decided to create the world’s largest painting in a way that would involve people from around the world. He asked children to send him pictures showing how they were feeling during the pandemic”（他决定用一种让世界各地的人都参与进来的方式来创作世界上最大的画作。他让孩子们给他发照片，展示他们在大流行期间的感受）可知，他作画的动机是跟疫情封锁有关，他想要全世界的人参与进来表达在这期间的感受。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“It took over 1,000 paintbrushes and 6,300 liters of paint to create the painting.”（创作这幅画需要超过1000支画笔和6300升颜料。）可知，作者提到“画笔和颜料”是为了展示这幅艺术作品的庞大规模，故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段倒数第二句“Knowing that the money would go to charity also helped Mr. Abdoune decide to pay more.”（知道这些钱将捐给慈善机构，也让阿卜杜恩决定支付更多的钱）可知，Mr. Abdoune是因为知道钱会捐给慈善机构，能帮助更多的人，所以决定付更高的价格。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文可知文章主要是讲一位英国画家在疫情期间创作出一幅作品，破了吉尼斯世界纪录，成为世界上最大的画，并且以6200万的价格拍卖。所以短文的标题为“世界上最大的画作以6200万美元的价格售出”。故选D。 C AI is a keyword in our time. Can artificial intelligence uncover a liar? It sounds like science fiction, but such an AI system is possible. Rada Mihalcea, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, has worked on deceit (欺骗) detection for about a decade. The first thing that researchers working on artificial intelligence and machine learning need is data. In the case of the work that Mihalcea did, they began with videos from actual court cases. For example, a defendant speaking in a trial in which he is found to have committed a crime could provide an example of deceit; they also employed words from witnesses as either example of truthful or deceitful statements. Altogether, they analyzed 121 videos — about half represented dishonest statements, and half truthful. It was this data that they used to build machine learning deceit detectors that ultimately (最终) had between a 60 to 75 percent accuracy rate. One thing the system noticed is the use of pronouns — people who are lying would tend to less often use the word “I” or “we”, Mihalcea explains. “Instead, people who are lying would more often use ‘you,’ ‘yours’.” Besides, someone telling a lie would use “stronger words” such as “absolutely,” and “very,” that reflect certainty, while interestingly, people telling the truth were more likely to use words such as “maybe” or “probably.” As for gestures, she points out that someone being deceitful would be more likely to look directly into the eyes of the person questioning them. They also tended to use both hands when gesturing. However, Mihalcea’s work is “far from perfection,” she admits. “As a researcher, we are content that we were able to get to 75 percent accuracy. But looked at another way, that’s an error rate of one in four.” Ultimately, she sees technology like this as being assistive for people — it could indicate that it noticed something “unusual” in a speaker’s statement, and then perhaps have a person “investigate more.” 8. How did researchers create the deceit detection using artificial intelligence? A. They interviewed criminals in court cases. B. They involved AI system in a virtual trial. C. They employed witnesses to identify dishonest criminals. D. They fed the system with both truthful and deceitful statements. 9. What is a liar likely to do according to paragraph 3? A. Gesture with one hand. B. Question others directly. C. Use pronouns repeatedly. D. Speak with strong certainty. 10. How does Mihalcea feel about her work? A. It completely lives up to her expectation. B. It can be used as an aid for human beings. C. It can replace human beings to uncover a lie. D. It successfully lowers the error rate of detection. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. The use of pronouns and gestures in lie B. Rada Mihalcea’s research on lie detection by using AI C. The limitations of current lie detection technology D. Accuracy rate of machine learning deceit detectors 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人工智能欺骗探测器以及它是如何工作的，同时人工智能技术可以作为人类的辅助手段。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“In the case of the work that Mihalcea did, they began with videos from actual court cases. For example, a defendant speaking in a trial in which he is found to have committed a crime could provide an example of deceit; they also employed words from witnesses as either example of truthful or deceitful statements. Altogether, they analyzed 121 videos — about half represented dishonest statements, and half truthful. It was this data that they used to build machine learning deceit detectors that ultimately (最终) had between a 60 to 75 percent accuracy rate. (在Mihalcea所做的工作中，他们从实际法庭案件的视频开始。例如，一名被告在他被认定犯罪的审判中发言，可以作为欺骗的例子；他们还使用证人的话作为真实或欺骗性陈述的例子。他们总共分析了121个视频，其中一半是不诚实的，一半是真实的。他们利用这些数据建立了机器学习欺骗探测器，最终的准确率在60%到75%之间。)”可知，研究人员向系统输入法庭上的真话和谎言进行学习，以此训练他们的测谎能力。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。 根据文章第三段中“Besides, someone telling a lie would use ‘stronger words’ such as ‘absolutely,’ and “very,” that reflect certainty, while interestingly, people telling the truth were more likely to use words such as ‘maybe’ or “probably.” (此外，说谎的人会使用‘绝对’和‘非常’等‘更强烈的词’来反映确定性，而有趣的是，说实话的人更有可能使用“也许”或“可能”等词。)”可知，撒谎者说话时措辞比较强硬，会使用“绝对、非常”等体现很强确定性词语。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Ultimately, she sees technology like this as being assistive for people — it could indicate that it noticed something ‘unusual’ in a speaker’s statement, and then perhaps have a person “investigate more.” (最终，她认为这样的技术对人们是有帮助的——例如，它可以表明它注意到说话者的陈述中有一些‘不寻常’的地方，然后可能让一个人“进一步调查”)”可知，人工智能技术可以作为人类的辅助手段。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据文章第一段中的“Can artificial intelligence uncover a liar? It sounds like science fiction, but such an AI system is possible. Rada Mihalcea, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, has worked on deceit (欺骗) detection for about a decade. (人工智能能发现骗子吗？这听起来像科幻小说，但这样的人工智能系统是可能的。密歇根大学计算机科学与工程教授Rada Mihalcea研究欺骗检测已有十年左右的时间)”可知，本文主要介绍了 Rada Mihalcea 研究人工智能欺骗探测器的开发原理、当前的发现，以及对其评价。由此可知，选项B“Rada Mihalcea’s research on lie detection by using AI (Rada Mihalcea利用人工智能进行测谎的研究)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。 D Evidence of planning has been unearthed in the ruins of cities in China, India, Egypt, the Mediterranean world, and South and Central America. Early examples of efforts toward planned urban development include orderly street systems, functional quarters in a city and advanced systems of defense, water supply, and drainage. Most of the evidence is in smaller cities built in relatively short periods as colonies (殖民地). For hundreds of years during the Middle Ages, there was little building of cities in Europe. Eventually towns grew up as centers of church or authority, of marketing or trade. As the urban population grew, problems of overcrowding in early European cities, the blocking out of air and light and very poor cleanness, certain quarters of the cities restricted to different nationalities, classes, or trades just came, as still occur in many cities of the developing world now. The physical form of medieval and Renaissance (文艺复兴时期) towns and cities followed the pattern of the village, spreading along a street or a crossroads in circular patterns or in irregular shapes. Most streets were little more than footpaths and even in major European cities paving was not widely introduced before the 12th century. As the population of the city grew, walls were often expanded, but few cities at the time exceeded a mile in length. Sometımes sites were changed, and many new cities appeared with increasing population—frequently about one day’s walk apart. Towns ranged in population from several hundred to perhaps 40,000. Conscious attempts to plan cities reappeared in Europe during the Renaissance, with their prime goal to glorify a ruler or a state. From the 16th century to the end of the 18th, many cities were laid out and built splendidly. The result may have pleased and inspired the citizens, but it rarely contributed to their health, to the comfort of their homes, or to efficiency in manufacturing, distribution, and marketing. In much of the world, city plans were based on the concept of a centrally located public space. The plans differed, however, in their principles for residential development. In the United States the New England town grew around a central public space. Also from the New England town came the tradition of the freestanding single-family house that became the norm for big cities. The central plaza, place, or square provided a central point for European city plans as well. In contrast to American residential development, though, European domestic architecture was dominated by the attached house. 12. What does the underlined word “as” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. problems B. early European cities C. certain quarters of the cities D. nationalities 13. Why did the Europeans make city plans during the Renaissance? A. To comfort residential homes. B. To promote distribution and marketing C. To contribute to citizen’s health D. To honor a ruler or a state 14. What can be inferred based on the text? A. There was much building of cities in Europe during the Middle Ages. B. Some cities had orderly street systems in countries like China, India, Egypt in history. C. The New England town in the United States grew around a central public space. D. As the population of the city grew, many cities got enlarged in the Renaissance . 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The development of urban planning B. Evidence of cities development. C. Traditional urban forms. D. The development of cities in the Renaissance. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了城市规划的发展历程。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段的“As the urban population grew, problems of overcrowding in early European cities, the blocking out of air and light and very poor cleanness, certain quarters of the cities restricted to different nationalities, classes, or trades just came (随着城市人口的增长，早期欧洲城市出现了过度拥挤的问题，空气和光线被阻隔，清洁程度很差，城市的某些地区限制不同国籍、阶级或行业的人居住)”和“still occur in many cities of the developing world now (现在许多发展中国家的城市仍然存在)”可知，早期欧洲城市存在过度拥挤、空气和光线被遮挡以及非常不清洁的问题，城市的某些区域被不同的民族、阶级或行业所限制，这些问题在当今许多发展中国家的城市中仍然存在。划线词as指代的是前文提到的problems，即“问题”。A. problems问题；B. early European cities早期欧洲城市； C. certain quarters of the cities城市的某些地区；D. nationalities民族。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的“Conscious attempts to plan cities reappeared in Europe during the Renaissance, with their prime goal to glorify a ruler or a state. (在文艺复兴时期，欧洲重新出现了有意识地规划城市的尝试，其主要目标是美化统治者或国家。)”可知，欧洲在文艺复兴时期重新出现了有意识的城市规划尝试，其主要目的是为了荣耀统治者或国家。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Evidence of planning has been unearthed in the ruins of cities in China, India, Egypt, the Mediterranean world, and South and Central America. Early examples of efforts toward planned urban development include orderly street systems, functional quarters in a city and advanced systems of defense, water supply, and drainage. (在中国、印度、埃及、地中海地区以及南美洲和中美洲的城市废墟中都发现了规划的证据。规划城市发展的早期例子包括有序的街道系统、城市的功能区以及先进的防御、供水和排水系统。)”可知，在中国、印度、埃及等国家的历史上，一些城市存在有序的街道系统。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Evidence of planning has been unearthed in the ruins of cities in China, India, Egypt, the Mediterranean world, and South and Central America. Early examples of efforts toward planned urban development include orderly street systems, functional quarters in a city and advanced systems of defense, water supply, and drainage. (在中国、印度、埃及、地中海地区以及南美洲和中美洲的城市废墟中都发现了规划的证据。规划城市发展的早期例子包括有序的街道系统、城市的功能区以及先进的防御、供水和排水系统。)”可知，文章主要介绍了城市规划的发展历程，A项“城市规划的发展历程”符合文意，最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Photography for me has always been a key. It opens up doors, gives me an excuse to travel with more purpose, and lets me see behind the scenes. ____16____—“Better get back to taking photos. Nice to chat!” What is my advice to beginners? I didn’t study photography; I’m not formally trained; ____17____ But that’s not what photography is about for me. If you want to be a photographer, be constantly asking yourself the question: “What is the story here?” It doesn’t matter if you are shooting a dish at your favorite restaurant or the food waste processing plant that deals with wat’s left over—____18____ What does that mean? If I’m photographing a dinner party for Social Supply, it’s important to capture not just the plate of food, but to step back and capture the scene around it. If I’m taking photos of a mushroom harvest in Yunnan, I make sure to find an angle that shows just how much they’ve harvested, but also a few close-ups of the weathered hands that are carefully sorting. ____19____ I’ve taken hundreds of thousands of photos this year alone. The more you shoot the better you will be. So, start shooting—anything and everything, but specially your fiends’ businesses and projects. Do I have a good camera? Yes, but some people still think that the photos I post from my phone were taken on that camera, so don’t confuse a good device with being a good photographer. ____20____ so start there, and start today. A. Let the story guide you. B. I have virtually no art experience. C. Like anything, photography requires practice. D. Photography becomes an incredible drive to explore. E. Some of my favorite photographers just use their phone. F. It also helps to slip out of awkward small talk at parties. G. I feel deeply connected with whatever is captured through my camera lens. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. A 19. C 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者结合自身经历给出了一些摄影的建议。 【16题详解】 上文“Photography for me has always been a key. It opens up doors, gives me an excuse to travel with more purpose, and lets me see behind the scenes.(摄影对我来说一直是个关键。它为我打开了一扇门，给了我一个更有目的旅行的借口，让我看到了幕后。)”提到了摄影对作者的重要性；下文““Better get back to taking photos. Nice to chat!”(“还是聊回拍照吧。这很好聊!”)”转而提到“回到拍照的话题”，为过渡句，下文第二段开始提出学习摄影的建议。由此可知，设空处应是承接上文的话题，与摄影的好处相关。F项“It also helps to slip out of awkward small talk at parties.(这也有助于在聚会上避免尴尬的闲聊。)”中的it指代上文的Photography，also helps也与上文对应。故选F项。 【17题详解】 上文“I didn’t study photography; I’m not formally trained;(我没有学过摄影；我没有受过正规训练；)”提到了作者既没学过摄影，也没有受过正规训练；下文“But that’s not what photography is about for me.(但这不是摄影对我的意义。)”转而提到上文提到的那些都不是摄影对作者的意义。结合设空处前面的分号可知，设空处与上文两个句子构成排比句式。B项“I have virtually no art experience.(我几乎没有美术经验。)”与上文对应。故选B项。 【18题详解】 上文“If you want to be a photographer, be constantly asking yourself the question: “What is the story here?” It doesn’t matter if you are shooting a dish at your favorite restaurant or the food waste processing plant that deals with wat’s left over(如果你想成为一名摄影师，就要不断地问自己这个问题：“这里的故事是什么？”无论你是在你最喜欢的餐馆拍摄一道菜，还是在处理剩饭剩菜的食物垃圾处理厂)”提到了如果相当一名摄影师，就要不断问自己“这里的故事是什么？”；下文“What does that mean? If I’m photographing a dinner party for Social Supply, it’s important to capture not just the plate of food, but to step back and capture the scene around it.(这是什么意思？如果我正在为Social Supply拍摄晚宴，重要的是不仅要捕捉一盘食物，还要退后一步，捕捉周围的场景。)”通过举例子进一步解释了问“这里的故事是什么？”的含义。A项“Let the story guide you.(让故事引导你。)”与上文的“What is the story here?”对应。故选A项。 【19题详解】 设空处位于段首，为段落主旨句；下文“I’ve taken hundreds of thousands of photos this year alone. The more you shoot the better you will be. So, start shooting—anything and everything, but specially your fiends’ businesses and projects.(仅今年一年，我就拍了数十万张照片。你拍得越多，你就会越好。所以，开始拍摄吧，什么都可以，尤其是你朋友的生意和项目。)”提到了拍得越多，就会越好，说明摄影是需要练习的。C项“Like anything, photography requires practice.(像任何事情一样，摄影需要练习。)”最能概括本段内容。故选C项。 【20题详解】 上文“Do I have a good camera? Yes, but some people still think that the photos I post from my phone were taken on that camera, so don’t confuse a good device with being a good photographer.(我有好的相机吗？是的，但有些人仍然认为我从手机上发布的照片是用那台相机拍摄的，所以不要把一个好设备和一个好摄影师混为一谈。)”提到了不要把好设备和好摄影师混为一谈，由此可知，设空处应与摄影设备和摄影师有关。E项“Some of my favorite photographers just use their phone.(我最喜欢的一些摄影师只用他们的手机拍。)”与上下文对应。故选E项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In a small town lived Matthew, a diligent (勤奋的) youth with a passion for English.

Many times, a good friend will know what you need before you even ask for it, and they’ll want to offer a helping hand. That’s what happened to two friends in Caddo Hills High School. When one differently abled young man needed help, his friend went above and beyond. When Brandon and Tanner met, Brandon was using a hand-push wheelchair. The chair was becoming kind of a pain for Brandon as he had to push his way down the halls from class to class around Caddo Hills High School. “My arms would get really tired and I would have to stop and take rests,” said Brandon. Sometimes when they were together, Brandon would ask Tanner to push his wheelchair. Tanner was happy to help. Most often, Tanner would offer to help and he noticed how hard using this wheelchair was on his friend. Tanner thought that if his friend had had an electric wheelchair, life would be easier for him. But Brandon’s family was unable to afford it. Seeing how much his friend struggled in his wheelchair, Tanner made up his mind to do something about it, “He’s just been a really good friend and I wanted to do him a favor. I just felt like I needed to do it and I wanted to do it” Tanner explained. Then the enthusiastic high school student became devoted to getting his friend a wheelchair. He got an after-school job at an auto repair shop and he worked there every afternoon. In order to help his friend out, Tanner worked part-time for two years. All of the money he earned went towards saving for a self-powered wheelchair. That moment finally came in late February, when he would present Brandon with a life-changing gift during the school day. 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。 Initially, Tanner had planned on giving Brandon all the money he had saved. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Brandon cried when he first got the wheelchair. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Initially, Tanner had planned on giving Brandon all the money he had saved. That way, Brandon could buy whatever wheelchair he liked. On second thought, Tanner decided to give him an electric wheelchair as a present, in case he declined the money. With the help of his mother, Tanner found a wheelchair in an online store , which he thought would be the perfect gift for his friend. After buying the wheelchair, Tanner gave it to Brandon during the school day. Brandon cried when he first got the wheelchair. He was so grateful to his friend for the amazing act of kindness. “Wow, I can’t believe he did that for me!” Brandon said, adding that it had been his dream to own an electric wheel-chair. Now, it was easier for him to get around, and he wouldn’t ever have to worry about his arms getting tired out again. Tanner was happy that his friend liked it. “I will help him as long as he needs me,” Tanner said, wishing more people in the world to care for the disabled. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了坦纳为了帮助他的朋友布兰登换一辆电动轮椅，而利用课余时间打工两年去存钱，最终存下足够的钱给他的朋友换了一辆电动轮椅，布兰登深受感动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一开始，坦纳打算把他所有的积蓄都给布兰登。”可知，第一段可描写坦纳购买电动轮椅的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“布兰登第一次得到轮椅时哭了。”可知，第二段可描写布兰登收到轮椅之后的感受。 2.续写线索：布兰登用手动轮椅感到累——坦纳决定帮助他——坦纳花了两年时间兼职存钱——购买电动轮椅送给布兰登——布兰登深受感动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①购买：buy/purchase ②拒绝：decline/refuse/reject ③拥有：own/have/possess 情绪类 ①感激：grateful/appreciative ②令人惊讶的：amazing/surprising/astonishing 【点睛】[高分句型1]With the help of his mother, Tanner found a wheelchair in an online store , which he thought would be the perfect gift for his friend.
