Zhoukoudian, Beijing Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago. Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years. The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers. The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC). Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world. The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire. 1. Which site reflects the earliest human? A. Zhoukoudian. B. The Yinxu Ruins. C. The Daming Palace. D. Sanxingdui Ruins site. 2. What is the Yinxu Ruins known for? A. The grand architecture. B. Oracle bone inscriptions. C. Royal palace in the Tang Dynasty. D. The remains of the Shu Kingdom. 3. Where can the text probably be found? A. In a novel. B. In a biography. C. In a history book. D. In a guidebook. B It’s not every day you cross paths with a wandering robot in the woods. Matthew McCormack wasn’t dreaming when he came across a delivery robot in the woods of Northampton in the United Kingdom. “I spotted the robot while cycling in Lings Wood,” he told NPR over email. “We have them all over town for grocery deliveries, but I was surprised to see it so far from the shops, so I took a picture of it.” Since McCormack, a history professor at the University of Northampton in England, shared that picture on Twitter, he has been enjoying some minor social media celebrity. He did take a bit of poetic license by tweeting, “On my bike ride this morning, I saw a delivery robot lost in the woods.” McCormack said, “It doubtless knew where it was going and got there eventually, but it did seem curious moving slowly and making a sound along in woodland.” His tweet, which he posted on May 15, has received more than 250,000 likes and well over 17,000 retweets. The company that makes these robots, Starship Technologies, has also been in touch with McCormack since his tweet. Apparently they “absolutely love” his message. But why has this image tickled people so much? McCormack believes it’s because this little lovely woodland robot buddy is a reminder of beloved robot characters such as R2-D2 and WALL-E, he said. “I think the image is resonating (共鸣) with people because it is funny but also amazing,” he said. “We often project personalities onto technology, and these little grocery robots are very cute.” McCormack reports that people have come across this wandering traveler out in the woods This particular robot seems to favor the wilderness to life in Northampton. 4. Why did the robot in Lings Wood surprise McCormack initially? A. Because it actually lost its way. B. Because it was abandoned there. C. Because it rode a bicycle by itself. D. Because it seemed rare to appear there. 5. What can we learn about McCormack’s tweet? A. It is inspiring. B. It is really poetic. C. It is well received. D. It is delicately written. 6. What does the underlined word “tickled” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Amused B. Defeated C. Frightened D. Touched 7. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. The robot is frequently wandering in the wild. B. McCormack has a special affection for robots. C. Personalized robots own human-like emotions. D. This robot enjoys the wildlife in Northampton. C There have been huge advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs that create art. The programs, creating artworks based on short descriptions, have amazed many people. They have also raised tough questions. NewsForKids.net reported on Dall-E2 a tool from OpenAI. Dall-E2 uses AI to create incredible paintings, photos, and other artworks in different styles based on simple descriptions. Since then, OpenAI has changed its rules to allow anyone to sign up and use the tool. But it’s still putting strong controls on the art that can be created. Now several other AI tools work in similar ways. These new tools are free or cheap, and don’t have some of Dall-E2’s limits. Midjourney is a website that allows users to create images from short descriptions. The new tools are entertaining and powerful. They allow people to quickly see almost any idea they can imagine, even if they aren’t artists. For creative workers, the tools allow them to quickly explore new ideas. These new AI art tools are all trained in similar ways — using massive collections of pictures with matching descriptions. The programs begin to create new images with a random pattern of dots. Step by step, they use their training to change the pattern until parts of the image begin to match the description. Artists are upset that they’re now competing against computers for attention, prizes and jobs. It’s hard for a single artist to compete against all the art and photography appearing on the Internet. The images and descriptions used to train these AI programs were taken from the Internet, therefore, the tools can produce images that aren’t appropriate. More importantly, the training images were used without permission, causing questions whether what these tools are doing is fair or legal. Once created, an artwork is protected by copyright. The creators of the training pictures—the photographers, the artists, and even the people in the pictures — haven’t given permission for their images to be used. 8. What can be inferred about Dall-E2? A. It is a news website intended for children. B. It has certain limits on users’ artistic creation. C. It is developed by OpenAI to create anything. D. It is available for artists to improve themselves. 9. What aspect of AI art tools does paragraph 4 focus on? A. Their strong functions. B. Their wide application. C. Their working principle. D. Their common features. 10. Which factor related to the AI art tools upsets artists most? A. The great creative ability beyond imagination. B. The massive collecting capacity of the Internet. C. The inappropriate artwork created by the tools. D. The illegal use of training images from the Internet. 11. What makes the best title for the text? A. AI Art Tools: Newborn Innovations B. AI Art Tools: Powerful Competitors C. AI Art Tools Amaze or Upset Artists? D. AI Art Tools Improve Art Significantly? D Do you ever wonder about what the term “locally-grown food” means? Do you wonder where your food comes from? Locally-grown food and sustainability are on the rise, and it’s important to know why this trend in farming matters. Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. Much of what gets to their table depends on what comes to use by ship. Sometimes, one notices there is no milk or other product left at the grocery story because there is a problem with a barge (驳船). Steven Chiang, a professor from University of Hawaii, pointed out that in Hawaii, the cost of labor is high for people who might want to farm the land. Since many different groups or individuals own small pieces of land, getting access to farmland is also difficult. However, Chiang added, “there are many benefits to growing food locally on the islands and elsewhere.” For one, they can hold onto traditions and the types of food they like. Food in soil will have the chance to mature more, and maybe absorb more nutrition. Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. Also, plants can extract the carbon dioxide in the air, benefiting the environment. Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. “Having local food helps make people aware of where their food comes from,” he said. When people are disconnected from the food system and don’t know where their food comes from, there’s a tendency to make potentially negative choices. “Because we’re so efficient at shipping and importing,” he added, “We don’t realize or know what it takes, and that can lead to poor decisions that can harm us all.” So what can you do? In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! 12. What can be inferred about Hawaii’s food supply? A. Hawaii relies heavily on imported food. B. Hawaii’s cost of living is low for farmers. C. Hawaii’s grocery stores are often short of milk. D. Hawaii’s farmland is enough for all local needs. 13. Which is a benefit of growing food locally? A. Lowering the cost of local labor. B. Increasing the variety of imported food. C. Preserving land for non-agricultural use. D. Offering quick access to imported food. 14. What is Chiang’s attitude towards locally-grown food? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Undecided. D. Favorable. 15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To encourage gardening at home. B. To advocate sustainable practices. C. To promote local farming in Hawaii. D. To discourage buying imported food. 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。 To read poetry like a poet A great poem can be there for you. It can help you process sadness, anger or fear. ____16____. Franny Choi, an educator, says some poems make her “get out of my chair and shout it from the rooftops.” Here are tips to help you meaningfully connect to a poem. Don’t approach poetry like it’s school. The way to engage with a poem taught in school is by trying to understand it, master it and take an exam, which keeps us from developing personal relationships with poetry. ____17____, due to no quiz at the end! Don’t worry about “getting it”. People often pressure themselves to interpret a poem, or figure out what the poet conveyed. Don’t do it, says Mullen, a poet and professor. ____18____: what overall impression do you get? What ideas float around in mind? “Those overall impressions, I think most of us do get,” says Mullen. Read it out loud. “Poetry was an oral art form before anything else,” says Choi. “And much information can be gained from reading poems loud.” As an exercise, try reading a poem aloud in different ways: like tasting every word and every syllable; like explaining something tough to someone else. ____19____. ____20____. A poem might offer visual imagery. If not, go ahead and fill them in with your imagination. “Think of the poem like a movie director,” says Mullen, “What colors would you use? What kind of setting is there?” These brain pictures will illuminate whatever it is you seem to be getting out of the poem. A. Visualize the poem B. Read a bunch of poetry C. So rest easy when reading a poem D. Or make you feel happy or excited E. Instead, ask about your opinion of the poem F. Or better yet, head to your local poetry circle G. It may help further your knowledge of the poem 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项（A、B、C和D）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。 It was a desperate situation.

It sounded like a large animal. At first, she was frightened, but when it groaned again, she thought: “That animal, whatever it is, is in pain.” With a kind heart towards all living things, she ventured towards the sound. Eventually, she found a large, very sick bull(公牛). “Don’t worry,” she said, patting his head. “I’ll look after you. I know all sorts of cures for diseases.” Somehow the sick bull understood. He gathered up all his strength, struggled to his feet, and followed her towards her home. On their way, they crossed paths with the bull’s former owner. “Hey, old woman! Where are you taking my bull?” the man called out, with a mix of surprise and annoyance. The old woman pulled herself up, her ancient back as straight as a sword, and she spoke with a tongue that was just as sharp: “Now listen, your bull was abandoned and full of suffering.” “Right,” admitted the man. “He is very sick, and he smells rotten. We can’t stand his stench anymore, so we drove him into the woods to end his days.” When he said this, the old woman glared angrily, she wagged her finger and declared, “It is wrong to abandon a living creature who has served you well, even if he is dying. I’m to take him home and look after him myself.” The man laughed at her, shrugging in disbelief. “You’re wasting your time! He’ll never recover.” The old woman continued, leading the bull towards her home. The villagers whispered praises and words of support as she passed by. When she reached home, she cleaned the bull, gave him water and medicine, and placed him on a comfortable bed of straw. His strength grew daily, and his once-dull coat became shining. The villagers felt amazed at the old woman’s good fortune. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 Word spread quickly to the bull’s previous owner _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The villagers cheered for the old woman. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 BACAB 6-10 CABAC 11-15 BACBC 16-20 BCBAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年春期宜宾市普通高中学业质量监测 高二年级英语 （考试时间：120分钟 全卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的班级、姓名、考号填写在答题卡上。 2. 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，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。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，你将有两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?

Matthew McCormack wasn’t dreaming when he came across a delivery robot in the woods of Northampton in the United Kingdom. “I spotted the robot while cycling in Lings Wood,” he told NPR over email. “We have them all over town for grocery deliveries, but I was surprised to see it so far from the shops, so I took a picture of it.” Since McCormack, a history professor at the University of Northampton in England, shared that picture on Twitter, he has been enjoying some minor social media celebrity. He did take a bit of poetic license by tweeting, “On my bike ride this morning, I saw a delivery robot lost in the woods.” McCormack said, “It doubtless knew where it was going and got there eventually, but it did seem curious moving slowly and making a sound along in woodland.” His tweet, which he posted on May 15, has received more than 250,000 likes and well over 17,000 retweets. The company that makes these robots, Starship Technologies, has also been in touch with McCormack since his tweet. Apparently they “absolutely love” his message. But why has this image tickled people so much? McCormack believes it’s because this little lovely woodland robot buddy is a reminder of beloved robot characters such as R2-D2 and WALL-E, he said. “I think the image is resonating (共鸣) with people because it is funny but also amazing,” he said. “We often project personalities onto technology, and these little grocery robots are very cute.” McCormack reports that people have come across this wandering traveler out in the woods. This particular robot seems to favor the wilderness to life in Northampton. 4. Why did the robot in Lings Wood surprise McCormack initially? A. Because it actually lost its way. B. Because it was abandoned there. C. Because it rode a bicycle by itself. D. Because it seemed rare to appear there. 5. What can we learn about McCormack’s tweet? A. It is inspiring. B. It is really poetic. C. It is well received. D. It is delicately written. 6. What does the underlined word “tickled” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Amused B. Defeated C. Frightened D. Touched 7. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. The robot is frequently wandering in the wild. B. McCormack has a special affection for robots. C. Personalized robots own human-like emotions. D. This robot enjoys the wildlife in Northampton. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。它以轻松幽默的方式叙述了一个真实事件，即一位教授在树林中偶遇一台送货机器人的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第一段“I spotted the robot while cycling in Lings Wood, he told NPR over email. We have them all over town for grocery deliveries, but I was surprised to see it so far from the shops, so I took a picture of it. (我在Lings Wood骑自行车时发现了这个机器人，”他通过电子邮件告诉NPR。“我们在城里到处都是送货机器人，但我很惊讶地看到它离商店这么远，所以我拍了一张照片。”)”可知，McCormack最初对这个机器人感到惊讶是因为它离商店很远，在那里出现似乎很罕见，故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第四段“His tweet, which he posted on May 15, has received more than 250,000 likes and well over 17,000 retweets.”(他于5月15日发布的这条推文已经获得了超过25万的点赞和超过1.7万的转发。)可知，McCormack的推文受到了很多人的关注和喜爱，即它受到好评，故选C项。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第五段“But why has this image … people so much? McCormack believes it’s because this little lovely woodland robot buddy is a reminder of beloved robot characters such as R2-D2 and WALL-E, he said. (但是为什么这张照片让人们如此……呢？McCormack认为这是因为这个可爱的森林小机器人伙伴让人想起了像R2-D2和WALL-E这样的深受喜爱的机器人角色，他说。)”可知，McCormack认为这张照片之所以让人们很开心是因为这个可爱的森林小机器人伙伴让人想起了像R2-D2和WALL-E这样的深受喜爱的机器人角色，由此可推知，划线单词tickled的意思为“娱乐的”，故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段McCormack reports that people have come across this wandering traveler out in the woods. This particular robot seems to favor the wilderness to life in Northampton. (McCormack报告说，人们已经在树林里遇到了这个漫游者。这个特别的机器人似乎更喜欢荒野生活而不是Northampton的生活。)可知，这个特别的机器人似乎更喜欢荒野生活而不是Northampton的生活，可以推断出McCormack对机器人有特别的喜爱，故选B项。 C There have been huge advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs that create art. The programs, creating artworks based on short descriptions, have amazed many people. They have also raised tough questions. NewsForKids.net reported on Dall-E2, a tool from OpenAI. Dall-E2 uses AI to create incredible paintings, photos, and other artworks in different styles based on simple descriptions. Since then, OpenAI has changed its rules to allow anyone to sign up and use the tool. But it’s still putting strong controls on the art that can be created. Now several other AI tools work in similar ways. These new tools are free or cheap, and don’t have some of Dall-E2’s limits. Midjourney is a website that allows users to create images from short descriptions. The new tools are entertaining and powerful. They allow people to quickly see almost any idea they can imagine, even if they aren’t artists. For creative workers, the tools allow them to quickly explore new ideas. These new AI art tools are all trained in similar ways — using massive collections of pictures with matching descriptions. The programs begin to create new images with a random pattern of dots. Step by step, they use their training to change the pattern until parts of the image begin to match the description. Artists are upset that they’re now competing against computers for attention, prizes and jobs. It’s hard for a single artist to compete against all the art and photography appearing on the Internet. The images and descriptions used to train these AI programs were taken from the Internet, therefore, the tools can produce images that aren’t appropriate. More importantly, the training images were used without permission, causing questions whether what these tools are doing is fair or legal. Once created, an artwork is protected by copyright. The creators of the training pictures—the photographers, the artists, and even the people in the pictures — haven’t given permission for their images to be used. 8. What can be inferred about Dall-E2? A. It is a news website intended for children. B. It has certain limits on users’ artistic creation. C. It is developed by OpenAI to create anything. D. It is available for artists to improve themselves. 9. What aspect of AI art tools does paragraph 4 focus on? A. Their strong functions. B. Their wide application. C. Their working principle. D. Their common features. 10. Which factor related to the AI art tools upsets artists most? A. The great creative ability beyond imagination. B. The massive collecting capacity of the Internet. C. The inappropriate artwork created by the tools. D. The illegal use of training images from the Internet. 11. What makes the best title for the text? A. AI Art Tools: Newborn Innovations B. AI Art Tools: Powerful Competitors C AI Art Tools Amaze or Upset Artists? D. AI Art Tools Improve Art Significantly? 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了随着科技的发展创造艺术的人工智能程序应运而生，它的功能的强大让很多艺术家感到不安，然而这些程序使用的图像和描述取自互联网，而这些训练素材是未经许可的，这引发了人们对这些工具的行为是否合法的质疑。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“But it’s still putting strong controls on the art that can be created.(但它仍然对可以创造的艺术施加了强有力的控制)”可知，Dall-E2对用户的艺术创作有一定的限制。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“These new AI art tools are all trained in similar ways—using massive collections of pictures with matching descriptions. The programs begin to create new images with a random pattern of dots. Step by step, they use their training to change the pattern until parts of the image begin to match the description.(这些新的人工智能美术工具都是以类似的方式进行训练的——使用大量具有匹配描述的图片。程序开始用随机的圆点模式创建新的图像。通过训练，他们一步一步地改变模式，直到图像的某些部分开始与描述相符)”可知，第4段关注的是AI美术工具的工作原理。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“More importantly, the training images were used without permission, causing questions whether what these tools are doing is fair or legal. Once created, an artwork is protected by copyright. The creators of the training pictures—the photographers, the artists, and even the people in the pictures—haven’t given permission for their images to be used.(更重要的是，这些训练图像是在未经许可的情况下使用的，这引发了人们对这些工具所做的事情是否公平或合法的质疑。艺术作品一经创作，便受版权保护。训练图像的创作者——摄影师、艺术家，甚至图片中的人——都没有允许使用他们的图像)”可知，非法使用来自互联网的训练图像最让美术人员感到不安。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“There have been huge advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs that create art. The programs, creating artworks based on short descriptions, have amazed many people. They have also raised tough questions.(人工智能程序在创造艺术方面取得了巨大进步。这些基于简短描述创作艺术品的程序令许多人惊叹不已。他们也提出了棘手的问题)”结合文章主要论述了人工智能美术工具带给艺术家的好处以及存在的问题。可知，C选项“人工智能美术工具让艺术家惊讶还是沮丧？”最符合文章标题。故选C。 D Do you ever wonder about what the term “locally-grown food” means? Do you wonder where your food comes from? Locally-grown food and sustainability are on the rise, and it’s important to know why this trend in farming matters. Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. Much of what gets to their table depends on what comes to use by ship. Sometimes, one notices there is no milk or other product left at the grocery story because there is a problem with a barge (驳船). Steven Chiang, a professor from University of Hawaii, pointed out that in Hawaii, the cost of labor is high for people who might want to farm the land. Since many different groups or individuals own small pieces of land, getting access to farmland is also difficult. However, Chiang added, “there are many benefits to growing food locally on the islands and elsewhere.” For one, they can hold onto traditions and the types of food they like. Food in soil will have the chance to mature more, and maybe absorb more nutrition. Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. Also, plants can extract the carbon dioxide in the air, benefiting the environment. Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. “Having local food helps make people aware of where their food comes from,” he said. When people are disconnected from the food system and don’t know where their food comes from, there’s a tendency to make potentially negative choices. “Because we’re so efficient at shipping and importing,” he added, “We don’t realize or know what it takes, and that can lead to poor decisions that can harm us all.” So what can you do? In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! 12 What can be inferred about Hawaii’s food supply? A. Hawaii relies heavily on imported food. B. Hawaii’s cost of living is low for farmers. C. Hawaii’s grocery stores are often short of milk. D. Hawaii’s farmland is enough for all local needs. 13. Which is a benefit of growing food locally? A. Lowering the cost of local labor. B. Increasing the variety of imported food. C. Preserving land for non-agricultural use. D. Offering quick access to imported food. 14. What is Chiang’s attitude towards locally-grown food? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Undecided. D. Favorable. 15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To encourage gardening at home. B. To advocate sustainable practices. C. To promote local farming in Hawaii. D. To discourage buying imported food. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了本地种植食物的重要性和可持续性，以夏威夷为例，阐述了本地种植食物的优势和对环境及社会的影响。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Hawaii, in particular, is a pretty isolated place. About 85 percent of food is imported. (尤其是夏威夷，是一个非常孤立的地方。大约 85%的食物是进口的。)”可以推断出，夏威夷严重依赖进口食品。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Areas of land that might be used for other things, like new apartment or office buildings, can be preserved. (可能用于其他用途的土地，如新建公寓或办公楼，可以得到保留。)”可知，本地种植食物的一个好处是可以为非农业用途保留土地。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Chiang said that there was more to locally-grown food than just those benefits. (蒋说，本地种植的食物不仅仅有这些好处。)”以及他对本地种植食物的各种好处的阐述，可以推断出蒋对本地种植食物持支持的态度。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In Hawaii, there are many opportunities to volunteer at local farms. But in other areas around the world, you can do your part by supporting and buying locally-grown food. You can also help spread awareness by educating your friends and family. You can even grow your own food—in a container in your kitchen or in your backyard! (在夏威夷，有许多在当地农场做志愿者的机会。但在世界其他地区，你可以通过支持和购买本地种植的食物来尽一份力。你还可以通过教育你的朋友和家人来帮助传播意识。你甚至可以自己种植食物——在你的厨房里用容器种植，或者在你家的后院种植。)”可知，作者提到在夏威夷可以去当地农场做志愿者，在其他地区可以支持和购买本地种植的食物，还可以教育朋友和家人来传播意识，甚至可以自己种植食物，其目的是倡导可持续的做法。故选B项。 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。 To read poetry like a poet A great poem can be there for you. It can help you process sadness, anger or fear. ____16____. Franny Choi, an educator, says some poems make her “get out of my chair and shout it from the rooftops.” Here are tips to help you meaningfully connect to a poem. Don’t approach poetry like it’s school. The way to engage with a poem taught in school is by trying to understand it, master it and take an exam, which keeps us from developing personal relationships with poetry. ____17____, due to no quiz at the end! Don’t worry about “getting it”. People often pressure themselves to interpret a poem, or figure out what the poet conveyed. Don’t do it, says Mullen, a poet and professor. ____18____: what overall impression do you get? What ideas float around in mind? “Those overall impressions, I think most of us do get,” says Mullen. Read it out loud. “Poetry was an oral art form before anything else,” says Choi. “And much information can be gained from reading poems loud.” As an exercise, try reading a poem aloud in different ways: like tasting every word and every syllable; like explaining something tough to someone else. ____19____. ____20____. A poem might offer visual imagery. If not, go ahead and fill them in with your imagination. “Think of the poem like a movie director,” says Mullen, “What colors would you use? What kind of setting is there?” These brain pictures will illuminate whatever it is you seem to be getting out of the poem. A. Visualize the poem B. Read a bunch of poetry C. So rest easy when reading a poem D. Or make you feel happy or excited E. Instead, ask about your opinion of the poem F. Or better yet, head to your local poetry circle G. It may help further your knowledge of the poem 【答案】16. D 17. C 18. E 19. G 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何像诗人一样阅读诗歌，与诗歌建立有意义的联系。文章提出不要像在学校里那样对待诗歌，不要担心“理解它”，而应该大声朗读，利用想象，以此来增强对诗歌的感受和理解。 【16题详解】 根据上文“A great poem can be there for you.

It sounded like a large animal. At first, she was frightened, but when it groaned again, she thought: “That animal, whatever it is, is in pain.” With a kind heart towards all living things, she ventured towards the sound. Eventually, she found a large, very sick bull(公牛). “Don’t worry,” she said, patting his head. “I’ll look after you. I know all sorts of cures for diseases.” Somehow the sick bull understood. He gathered up all his strength, struggled to his feet, and followed her towards her home. On their way, they crossed paths with the bull’s former owner. “Hey, old woman! Where are you taking my bull?” the man called out, with a mix of surprise and annoyance. The old woman pulled herself up, her ancient back as straight as a sword, and she spoke with a tongue that was just as sharp: “Now listen, your bull was abandoned and full of suffering.” “Right,” admitted the man. “He is very sick, and he smells rotten. We can’t stand his stench anymore, so we drove him into the woods to end his days.” When he said this, the old woman glared angrily, she wagged her finger and declared, “It is wrong to abandon a living creature who has served you well, even if he is dying. I’m to take him home and look after him myself.” The man laughed at her, shrugging in disbelief. “You’re wasting your time! He’ll never recover.” The old woman continued, leading the bull towards her home. The villagers whispered praises and words of support as she passed by. When she reached home, she cleaned the bull, gave him water and medicine, and placed him on a comfortable bed of straw. His strength grew daily, and his once-dull coat became shining. The villagers felt amazed at the old woman’s good fortune. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答 Word spread quickly to the bull’s previous owner. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The villagers cheered for the old woman. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Word spread quickly to the bull’s previous owner. He came to the old woman’s house,saw the healthy bull and demanded the return of his valuable animal. The villagers were astonished to hear this. The old woman still stood her ground, telling him firmly: “In days of despair and sickness, you abandoned this bull, left him to weep. I nurtured him with love and care. His strength restored. He’ll stay with me, no more to roam. He is no longer yours. He’s found a new home.” The villagers cheered for the old woman. Their applause echoed through the valley. “Go away!” they shouted at the previous owner, heavily waving their arms in protest. “How dare you try to take back the bull! You heartlessly abandoned him in the woods to die, just because you couldn’t tolerate his natural scent. But the brave old woman found him and nursed him back to health with her tender care and expertise. He is hers now.” As their voices rose, the previous owner felt the weight of their determination. Feeling deeply ashamed, he slowly backed away with his head hung low. 【解析】 【导语】本文以一位老妇人和一头生病的公牛的故事为线索展开，讲述了老妇人如何救助这头被遗弃的公牛，并最终赢得村民们的尊敬和支持的过程。 【详解】1.段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“消息很快传到了公牛的前主人那里。”可知，第一段可描写前主人看到恢复健康的公牛后想要索回，但老妇人坚决拒绝的情节。 ② 由第二段首句内容“村民们为老妇人欢呼。”可知，第二段可描写村民们支持老妇人，谴责前主人的行为，最终前主人羞愧离开的场景。 2.续写线索：前主人索回公牛——老妇人拒绝——村民支持老妇人——谴责前主人——前主人羞愧离开 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 索回：demand the return of / reclaim ② 支持：cheer for / support ③ 离开：back away / leave 情绪类 ① 惊讶：astonished / surprised ② 羞愧：ashamed / embarrassed 【点睛】[高分句型1].
