hh#4   选择性必修第四册 课时作业 19  CONNECTIONS Ⅰ. 阅读理解 " (2023·安徽安庆二中模拟) In the following, we share some specific lessons from each of Rowling􀆳s magical Harry Potter books. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Following adversity ( 逆境), we may want help the least when we actually need it the most. Most often, we􀆳re trying to rebuild the life we􀆳ve lost. Research has shown that those who are most successful are those who are able to openly accept help. Moreover, research has shown that acts of being willing to benefit others or making a donation, help us find meaning in being able to help others who􀆳ve also been affected. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Because we are never meant to go through disaster alone, those whose lives have been influenced by adversity need community support. This can include things like providing a listening ear, bringing meals, and offering rides. The support we experience from others makes it possible for us to recover, grow well and flourish. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Although many catastrophes never make the news, and others fade from the evening news after just a few days or weeks, survivors learn that recovery takes time. Although it can be attractive to acknowledge defeat, those who handle adversity well are those who show perseverance ( 毅力) . And during the long season of recovery, it􀆳s critical to be able to find hope and joy despite difficult circumstances. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix After a community has been struck by tornadoes, or hurricanes, or ice storms, or fire, neighbors who may have never spoken to each other find themselves united against a common enemy. They learn each other􀆳s names. They offer aid. They help one another out. Whatever it was that once separated them—race, or class, or language, or privilege—suddenly seems unimportant. 1. What does Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire tell us? A. The belief of learning from memories and the past. B. The truth of God􀆳s helping those who help others. C. The reason of getting support from community. D. The benefits of accepting help and paying it back. 2. Which of the following tells holding on to joy in hard time? A. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. B. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. C. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. D. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. 3. What can we learn from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix? A. A neighbor is better than a faraway relative. B. True love shows itself in time of need. C. Sunshine always comes after rains and winds. D. Adversity makes a man wise, not rich. 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 -502- 选择性必修第四册  3 # (2023·天津一中模拟) As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect. He was lying on his hard, as it were armor-plated, back and when he lifted his head a little he could see his dome-like brown belly divided into stiff arched segments on top of which the bed quilt could hardly keep in position and was about to slide off completely. His numerous legs, which were pitifully thin compared to the rest of his body, waved helplessly before his eyes. “What has happened to me?” he thought. It was no dream. His room, a regular human bedroom, only rather too small, lay quiet between the four familiar white walls. Above the table on which a collection of cloth samples was unpacked and spread out—Samsa was a commercial traveler—hung the picture which he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and put into a pretty golden frame. It showed a lady. Gregor􀆳s eyes turned next to the window, and the overcast sky—one could hear rain drops beating on the window—made him quite melancholy (悲哀的) . What about sleeping a little longer and forgetting all this nonsense, he thought, but it could not be done, for he was accustomed to sleeping on his right side and in his present condition he could not turn himself over. However violently he forced himself towards his right side he always rolled on to his back again. He tried it at least a hundred times, shutting his eyes to keep from seeing his struggling legs, and only stopped when he began to feel in him a faint ache he had never experienced before. He thought “ What an exhausting job I􀆳ve picked on! Traveling about day in, day out. It􀆳s much more boring work than doing the actual business in the office, and on top of that there􀆳s the trouble of constant traveling, of worrying about train connections, the bed and irregular meals, casual acquaintances that are always new and never become intimate friends. The devil takes it all!” He felt a slight itching up on his belly; slowly pushed himself on his back nearer to the top of the bed so that he could lift his head more easily; identified the itching place which was surrounded by many small white spots the nature of which he could not understand and made to touch it with a leg, but drew the leg back immediately, for the contact made a cold shiver run through him. ...( to be continued) 4. What might Gregor Samsa look like when he woke up? A. A normal commercial traveler. B. Something ridiculous. C. A huge insect with thick legs. D. A lady in the gift frame. 5. What can we know about Samsa􀆳s room? A. It was a regular room and tidy. B. There was no window for him to look outside his tiny room. C. Its walls were dull and pale. D. There was a magazine and a pretty golden frame on the table. 6. How might Samsa feel when he found his transformation? A. Extremely frightened. B. Indifferent. C. Relieved. D.

Attending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment at a time when I sometimes felt useless. I am a physician, and taking care of the plant made me feel like a caregiver once again. It was nice to be able to nurture something and watch it grow. Since my diagnosis in August 2018, far too often, it seemed, I had to rely on help from other people. The enormous change let me feeling aimless and unsettled. Watering the plant, as small an act as it was, connected me to a core part of my old identity. Plants and people could still depend on me. For the next few months, I was recovering from surgery and receiving radiation. Despite my ongoing treatments, we found some peace through tending to the plant. The simple act of watering and watching it grow gave us something to focus on outside of my health. It became a small but meaningful part of our lives. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 Then, mysteriously, it began to show signs of losing liveliness.

The US-based nonprofit New Story has teamed up with the tech company ICON to build the world􀆳s first 3D printed neighborhood. It􀆳s part of their project working to fight global homelessness. Brett Hagler, the company􀆳s CEO and co- founder, says the machine starts at the very bottom of the home, laying the cement ( 水泥) all the way to top where a roof is then placed. From start to finish, the entire process takes just 24 hours to print. The company hires local workers to attach the roof and doors, Hagler says. Each 3D printed home will have two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen and bathroom. Families there are living for less than $ 3 a day. Each home can stand hurricanes and medium-level earthquakes, Hagler says. Being strong enough to stand natural disasters has a “ generational influence”, he says, because families can pass the home down from generation to generation. New Story started in 2010 after a disastrous earthquake ruined Haiti, leaving millions injured and homeless. “Seeing the damage broke my heart,” Hagler says. Therefore, he founded New Story to be able to face large disasters with new robotic technology that can quickly rebuild communities. Now, using New Story􀆳s printer, known as “Vulcan 2”, they are able to quickly build safe shelters. “ Besides, we are free of exorbitant operation costs. We bring in the technology to make it faster, cheaper and eventually a better product,” Hagler says, “and then be able to have local labor to do other necessary jobs. ” Hagler says they don􀆳t want to keep this innovation to themselves. After their project in Tabasco, they hope to service other nonprofits who are working toward ending global homelessness. 1. Why are these 3D printed homes built? A. To reduce the unemployment. B. To help those who lost homes. C. To reduce the losses in earthquake. D. To succeed in developing the company. 2. What makes it possible for the 3D printed home to be passed down? A.

And because it doesn􀆳t copy an existing text, there is no easy way to be certain whether a human or a robot wrote the answer. As many educators began to worry about whether students may use ChatGPT to generate papers,Edward Tian had an idea. The 22-year-old student, who studies computer science and journalism, decided to build an app to detect whether a text was human-written or AI-written. Over a few days in a Toronto coffee shop during the winter break, he got to work. On Jan. 2, he launched GPTZero. It analyzes different properties of a text for its “perplexity”, which is the randomness of the text, and the “burstiness”, which is the variation of the text over time. So, a human-written text would have high perplexity, something very unfamiliar to an AI model, and exhibit properties of burstiness, which are non- common items that appear in random clusters (集 群), rather than being uniformly distributed. Tian said he expected a few dozen people to ever try it. But he woke up the next morning stunned by the response. He has even heard from people all over the world—many of them are teachers or college admissions officers. Many people have subscribed for updates from Tian as he works to improve the technology. The quick response to Tian􀆳s effort highlighted the breakneck pace at which technology is changing classrooms, teaching, and the ways that people define and understand learning. Tian believed everyone deserved to reap the benefits of AI, but safeguards were needed to make sure new technologies were not abused. Tian said it would be sad if, years from now, people mostly relied on AI and writing became far more uniform. “There􀆳s something implicitly(含 蓄地) beautiful in human prose,” he said,“ that computers can never copy. ” 5. Why did Edward Tian create GPTZero? A. To predict abuse of ChatGPT. B. To analyse properties of texts. C. To relieve educators of anxiety. D. To recognize AI-generated texts. 6. What features do human-written texts share? A. They are random and varied. B. They are plain and unfamiliar. C. They are common and diverse. D. They are uniform and complex. 7. What does the public think of Tian􀆳s invention? A. It is safely guarded. B. It is highly anticipated. C. It is quickly updated. D. It is thoroughly developed. 8. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Human will win the competition against AI. B. Most people will benefit from AI in the future. C. Writing will become more common than before. D. There is incomparable charm in Human writings. Ⅱ. 完形填空 (2023·湖南师大附中模拟) Adam Pearl found a baby squirrel   1  in his yard. He decided to take him in and named him Joey.

Protect Nature, a Must of Life # (2024·九省联考) Parrots are prey animals, which means that other predators ( 捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks or snakes, are looking to make them into a meal. This one factor influences parrots􀆳 behavior in your house more than any other. Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground. Membership in a group plays an important function in ensuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators. The most common predators of parrots include hawks, snakes, cats, monkeys, and bats. Some predators make attacks only during the day while others hunt in the night. As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本 能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight. However, if this is not possible, they will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves. Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind. For this reason, it is wise to avoid quick, sudden movements near your bird. This is a built-in reaction, not subject to logic or reason. Simple and relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your bird􀆳s mind. As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diet and toys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to changes. 5. What is important for parrots to better survive from attacks in the wild? A. Living in a group. B. Growing beautiful feathers. C. Feeding on the ground. D. Avoiding coming out at night. 6. What is parrots􀆳 first response to an immediate risk? A. To attack back. B. To get away. C. To protect the young. D. To play dead. 7. Why would a balloon frighten a parrot? A. It may explode suddenly. B. It may be in a strange shape. C. It may have a strong color. D. It may move around quickly. 8. What is the author􀆳s purpose of writing the text? A. To explain wild parrots􀆳 behavior. B. To give advice on raising a parrot. C. To call for action to protect animals. D. To introduce a study on bird ecology.

Actually science has never really been my “ thing” . At school I really struggled with physics and chemistry and was much happier in English Language or History classes. My mind is not structured enough to understand how science works. I􀆳m a bit of a daydreamer and prefer using my imagination rather than learning facts, figures and formulae ( 公式) . Of course I knew who Marie Curie was, her great achievements, her contribution to science, to medical advances and influence on the world, but other than that, I really had very little idea about her life. Shelley Emling has based this book on Marie Curie􀆳s relationship with her two daughters, Irene and Eve. The book begins after the early death of Pierre Curie, when Marie is left to carry on the work that they started as a couple and to bring up her two small daughters alone. Emling has concentrated her book on the communication between Marie and her daughters. She was not an overly-protective mother, nor did she hesitate to spend time away from her daughters, yet this did not weaken their relationship. Marie was a caring and loving mother, who encouraged her daughters to become individuals, to achieve what they wanted to. Marie Curie and her husband made the decision not to profit from their discoveries. It was because of this that Marie had to depend on donations to carry out her work, and that she had to carry out tours of the States. I was very impressed by Emling􀆳s writing style—she has told the story of three extraordinary women who were way ahead of their time in an interesting and very readable manner. 1. What is the writer good at? A. Physics and chemistry. B. Facts, figures and formulae. C. English and History. D. Daydreaming. 2. What was Marie Curie like in the eyes of Irene and Eve? A. She made a pet of them like babies. B. She avoided staying away from them. C. She encouraged them to build their own characters. D. She wanted to be involved in every area of their life. 3. Why did Marie Curie tour the States? A. Because she meant to make herself a famous person. B. Because she wished to introduce the medical advances to people in the USA. C. Because she needed money to bring up her two small daughters by herself. D. Because she decided to continue her work without money made from discoveries. 4.

He was 94. Hailed (誉为) as a visionary in the field of heliophysics, Parker revolutionized our understanding of the sun and its effects on Earth and other bodies within the solar system. NASA even stated that “ the field of heliophysics exists in large part because of Dr Eugene Parker” . In 2018, Parker became the first living scientist to witness the launch of a spacecraft that was named in his honor. Parker is best known for his groundbreaking theory on the existence of a phenomenon called “ solar wind ”, a continuous stream of charged particles that flow off the sun. It can become violent, causing space weather that impacts the Earth. When Parker􀆳s research was published in 1958, his theory was initially met with skepticism (怀疑) and ridicule by the scientific community. The general view at the time was that the space between planets was an absolute vacuum (真空), and was thus completely empty of any matter. But, there were no errors in his study or his calculations, and the theory was later proven to be correct in 1962, when a NASA spacecraft mission to Venus revealed the constant presence of a supersonic wind—exactly as Parker had predicted. That experience likely led to the advice Parker often gave young researchers:“ If you do something new or innovative, expect trouble. But think critically about it because if you􀆳re wrong, you want to be the first one to know that. ” Parker never co-authored a paper with his students, thus urging them to be independent. Parker was humble, straightforward, and wise. His son Eric said, “My sister Joyce and I didn􀆳t get a real feel for what a ‘big dog’ our dad was in the field. ” They got an even better sense when a month after Parker􀆳s death, they traveled to Lund, Sweden, to accept on his behalf the Crafoord Prize in Astronomy. 5. What can we learn from the second paragraph? A. A spacecraft was named in memory of Parker. B. The sun has less effects on Earth than expected. C. Parker deserved credit for his great contributions. D. NASA provided new insights into the lunar effect. 6. Why did people view Parker􀆳s theory of “ solar wind” skeptically at first? A. It went against the popular opinion at that time. B. Some mistakes were found in his calculations. C. The presence of a supersonic wind was proven by NASA. D. Matter was believed to exist in the space between planets. 7. What did Parker suggest young researchers do? A. Seek close cooperation. B. Avoid high expectations. C. Learn by trial and error. D. Compete against others. 8. What words can be used to describe Parker according to the passage? A. Straightforward and generous. B. Responsible and accessible. C. Intelligent yet conservative. D. Distinguished yet modest. 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 -443- hh#4 Ⅱ. 完形填空 (2023·湖南长沙模拟) One day Christopher Columbus was at a party that a Spanish gentleman gave in his honor.

When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain about his lack of privacy. Local magazines and newspapers published his thrilling stories about his personal lives. They did much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do. Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without being photographed or interrupted for a signature.   4  Then there is always the media to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever. If fame is so troublesome, why aren􀆳t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. Others actively contact related social media or websites to keep the public informed of their views in time when suffering from the pressure of public opinions.   5  A.

The times I loved most were the special moments we had together. To this day, I still hold those memories dear. When I had a son, I was always worried that my absence might have an impact on his future life and that I might miss all his milestones since I travelled a lot. I knew how important it was for a boy to have his father near. I decided that if I couldn􀆳t be with my son as often as possible, I would make every effort to create special moments for us. When my son was five, I was sent to the branch in Shanghai, which meant I had to be away from my family for nearly a year. The hardest time for me was the summer and winter vocations when my son was out of school and families could get together doing something fun. To ease the separation, we kept writing letters to share any precious moment in our life. In one letter home, I promised my son that we would make a lantern together and sign up for the community lantern design competition on the Lantern Festival. Everywhere I went on business, I would pick up things for our lantern adventure and send them to him. I bought a couple of handbooks on how to DIY a lantern, and I sent those on. I found special bamboo for the frame. I sent him one piece at a time, carefully packed. When I was in Hangzhou, I found the most beautiful silk with gold threads woven through it. Perfect lantern material. I sent it home. I found a golden Chinese knot that could be attached to the bottom of the lantern.

A look of surprise crossed his face. “We could never afford a piano. After so many years of hard work, we got you through school. Now I deserve a piano,” I repeated. Several months later, Ralph, with help, moved the upright piano we bought for $100 into our cottage􀆳s tiny arched dining room. It smelled a little musty, but had a great tone. Ralph started graduate school, leaving no money for private piano lessons. The first thing that came to my mind was Santa Monica City College—maybe it offered piano lessons. Skimming the catalog, I danced around the room when I found a class at the same time the boys were at preschool. Practicing, however, was not so easy. Four- year-old Denny crawled out of bed in the evening on a regular basis. That was my time to practice. He􀆳d pad out of the bedroom in his sleeper and climb up on the bench with me. Soon he began plinking (发出叮铃声) on the high keys. I tried to ignore him. He listened to the echoes of the keys and plinked some more. Doing all I could do to keep focused on my own practicing, I continued to ignore him. This practice pattern became an evening routine. After a while, I didn􀆳t even hear him anymore. Ralph studied. Denny plinked on the high keys, and I focused on my piece for the end- of-the-term recital (独奏会) . That evening came. However,Ralph said he was busy preparing for the midterms and couldn􀆳t watch Denny. Pacing back and forth, I shook my head trying to figure out what to do. Time was running out. I bundled up Denny—with his sleeper on—and drove off to the recital with him. “ We􀆳ll sit in the front row, Denny,” I whispered. “You have to be very quiet and listen when I am playing. ” He nodded, said “Uh-huh,” and we sat down. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 Denny held my hand, but then my turn came.

I loved adventures,” the Brooklyn native said during a Newsday interview on Tuesday. After learning to communicate using sign language,Giordano wondered what to do next after his sight and hearing losses. While reinventing his life, Giordano said getting into art was not something that crossed his mind at first. But after taking a creative art class at the North Shore facility,Giordano began to discover he enjoyed it. Drawing on his nearly 30 years of experience as an auto mechanic, his welding ( 焊接) skills and various bursts of inspiration, Giordano began pouring himself into what􀆳s become his specialty— designing metal sculptures. More than a year later, Giordano now is getting recognition for his art pieces. In December, Giordano made his first sale of a sculpture, a larger-than-life hand made of copper pipes and titled “ I Love You ” to artist and collector Jennifer Contini for $1,000. While proud of selling his first art piece,Giordano—who also repairs bicycles at a bike repair shop in St. James—admitted it made him a bit sad. “His work ethic is really incredible,” said Antonia Isnardi,Giordano􀆳s art teacher. “Learning sculpture is really tough, requiring enormous attention and patience. He could easily say ‘ I lost my vision. I can􀆳t do this’, but he keeps fighting. He perseveres in everything and is willing to try something new to improve in any way. ” Giordano will leave the Port Washington center this year and return to his home in the South. But he said he considers art his next adventure and hopes his sculptures will be a way to spread a positive message about the capabilities of the deaf and blind community. 1. What inspired Giordano to go into art? A. Artistic inspiration. B. A teacher􀆳s encouragement. C. A creative art class. D. Previous working experience. 2. What􀆳s mainly discussed in paragraph 4 about Giordano? A. Frustrations in his life. B. Difficulties for him in sculpturing. C. His strong will in learning. D. The art teacher􀆳s remarks on him. 3. Which of the following best describes Giordano? A. Wealthy and honest. B. Creative and determined. C. Grateful and generous. D. Adventurous and humorous. 4. Where is the text probably taken from? A.

They have all kinds of performers—from dancers, musicians and actors to everything in between. The shows give artists a chance to create unusual art. For festival goers, each show is a time to experience something different. The first Fringe Festival was held in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1947. That was also the year of the first Edinburgh International Festival. Artists from around the world traveled to Scotland for the Edinburgh International Festival. They performed at art centers throughout the city. Eight local theater companies did not receive an invitation, however. In response, they performed at smaller spaces around Edinburgh. These artists performed wherever they could, including churches and even on the street. They started their own cultural event and named it the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. What started as an alternative to the mainstream has now become the world􀆳s largest art festival. Today, there are hundreds of Fringe Festivals taking place around the world. The one in Washington, DC, called the Capital Fringe Festival, is in its tenth year. It was held in the month of July. Julianne Brienza founded the Capital Fringe Festival. She went to a school for the performing art, but now sees herself mainly as an organizer of the festival. Brienza believes that fringe performance art is special and can have a powerful effect. The Capital Fringe Festival takes place in different locations throughout the DC area. Some performances happen in traditional theaters. Others happen in unusual settings like old, empty buildings or stores after business hours are over. Brienza says the purpose of Fringe Festivals is to explore the limits of art in unique environments. Since 2006, the event has made more than $ 1. 7 million. It is the second largest Fringe Festival in the US, and its popularity has grown every year. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe continues throughout the month of August. 5. Who may be interested in Fringe Festivals? A. Strange art lovers. B. Professional artists. C. Classical musicians. D. Traditional culture supporters. 6. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Why Edinburgh became the global art center. B. How the first Fringe Festival came into being. C. When the Edinburgh International Festival was held. D.

These so- called “ superworms ” could one day help rid landfills of this waste and thus put a dent in one of the drivers of global warming. Chris Rinke and other researchers from the University of Queensland in Australia are studying the larvae of the darkling beetle ( 甲 虫 )—or zophobas morio, its scientific name. They found the insects could survive on polystyrene alone, and in 66. 7% of cases, finally transform into beetles on that relatively poor diet. The secret lies in the stomach of these “superworms”, specifically their microbiomes (微 生物群) . The scientists studied how the larvae break down piles of plastic waste humans produce. The insects produce enzymes (酶) as they destroy the white stuff. “ We could have large worm farms with millions of worms and feed them polystyrene. But what scales are better, and what is also cheaper, are to focus on the enzymes,”Rinke said. The ultimate goal, he says, would be to reproduce these enzymes in a lab. “ Polystyrene waste, which is a rather low-value product, goes through this biological breakdown using the enzymes, a crucial factor, and then you can feed it to microbes to then produce something like bioplastic, which is actually a higher-value product. So then you would break the cycle of waste,”he explained. “ I was on a vacation with my wife on a tropical island somewhere thousands of miles away from any continent and there􀆳s plastic. So plastic is really everywhere. It􀆳s obvious there􀆳s no escape. Thus I decided to do some research on reducing the pollution,”Rinke recalled. 1. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined phrase“put a dent in”? A. Give birth to. B. Dig a hole in. C. Go through. D. Cut down. 2. What can we know from paragraph 2? A. Larvae only feed on polystyrene. B. Larvae are an early stage of the beetles. C. Larvae are a kind of microbiomes. D. Larvae break down human waste. 3. Which is critical in the whole process in breaking the cycle of waste? A. Plastic. B. Enzymes. C. Bioplastic. D. Polystyrene. 4. What inspired Rinke to do the research? A. His wife􀆳s opinion. B.

They say electric cars are “ a no-regret choice ” . Some previous studies have suggested fossil fuel cars produce fewer carbon emissions (排放) over their lifetime than battery-powered cars. Yet these analyses have often compared only two models of car. Instead, Florian Knobloch at Radboud University in the Netherlands looked at the average across many classes of car to get a clearer global picture. The researchers looked at the carbon emissions generated on average over a car􀆳s lifetime, including during its production, while it is being driven and when it is destroyed, for all the conventional and electric cars sold in 59 regions across the world in 2015. These represent 95 percent of the world􀆳s current road traffic. They found that electric cars already have fewer carbon emissions in 53 of those 59 regions. Only in areas containing countries that use coal heavily, such as India and Poland, are electric car emissions worse than those of conventional fossil fuel cars. Combined with data on the sources that provided electricity to 6 those regions in 2015, they found that the average electric car is greener than the average new petrol car. Many countries􀆳 electricity supplies have seen huge growth in the past five years, so Knobloch says electric cars are likely to be even better now. The researchers think that the gap between fossil fuel and electric cars will only grow bigger as power grids (电厂) get greener. By 2030, they expect the average carbon intensity of electric cars to be 20 percent lower than that in 2015, and 30 percent lower by 2050. 5. Why are the previous studies different from today􀆳s analyses? A. The subjects for analysis are limited. B. The studies aren􀆳t conducted correctly. C. Battery powered cars have been updated. D. The time for the studies isn􀆳t long enough. 6. What􀆳s the finding of Florian Knobloch􀆳s study? A. Electric cars are greener in most areas. B. India and Poland use more fossil fuel cars. C. Electric cars may be replaced by fossil fuel cars. D. Electric cars have fewer carbon emissions in India. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. Fossil fuel cars will get greener in 2030. B. Fossil fuel cars will be abandoned in a few years. C. Electric supplies were improved in many countries. D. The gap between petrol and electric cars is narrowed. 8. What􀆳s the best title for the text? A. Electric Cars Make Great Progress B. Carbon Emissions Will Be Reduced C. Electric Cars May Replace Fossil Fuel Cars D.

The sounds and movement of water can get people to focus their attention and this invites calm. “You don􀆳t have to go to the coast to experience this well-being,” said Azar. “ Any waterway will do, including lakes, rivers, canals or ponds.   3  ” A new study conducted by King􀆳s College London has also proved that spending time near urban canals and rivers is linked to feeling happy and healthy, stressed a press release from the college. Moreover, it has found that urban waterways are superior to feelings of well-being than just being near the ocean. “  4  This means their capacity to improve mental well-being is likely to be due to the multiple benefits associated with both green and blue spaces,” said Andrea Mechelli, professor of early intervention in mental health at King􀆳s College London. The study has also found that there are continuous improvements to mental well-being for up to 24 hours after visiting urban waterways.   5  In England and Wales, people have access to 3,218 kilometers of rivers and canals that are readily accessible.

The idea of creating something from just lines of codes and logic was very fascinating. And I didn􀆳t put as much time into music as I used to, thinking practicing the piano was just a waste of time. A year later, when I got back on the piano, I quickly noticed my musical ear was not as strong as it was before. I could no longer hear the difference between a perfect 46 and a perfect 5th or between a D and D flat. Then I had a firm decision to get my skills to where it used to be. After weeks of practicing, I didn􀆳t see much progress. I was extremely discouraged and felt that I would have to accept that I no longer would be able to play as well as I used to. While watching hundreds of tutorials (辅导) online on how to code in Swift, I came up with an idea. What if I used the knowledge I gained from these tutorials to develop an app that would help train my musical ear? After hours of coding, I developed an app that would play a different series of notes, then the user would have to type in the corresponding notes to what they heard. When I was on the subway or had some extra time I could easily open up the app on my phone and use it to help my musical ear. In about 2 months, I regained the skills I lost. This experience helped me see something that I never noticed before. Programming gives me a platform to express my ideas; in a similar way, playing the piano gives me a way to express my feelings. When playing through a song for the first time I hear many errors. Similarly, when I run my program for the first time there are usually many mistakes. In both of these cases, it takes patience to go through each measure or line to hear or find the error. I realized when I􀆳m playing the piano I am also practicing my programming skills and vice versa. 1. What happened to the author a year ago? A. He was too busy to practice the piano. B.

So it is with Farm My School, a program that􀆳s turning underused land at secondary schools into commercially achievable, regenerative market gardens farmed by and for local communities. Co-founded by permaculturist Ben Shaw and regenerative educator James McLennan, Farm My School connects local people and organizations through volunteering that helps establish a school􀆳s market garden. Students learn about community networks, healthy eating, ecological responsibility, waste reduction and climate relief while helping with food production. Schools integrate all these into their courses while producing vegetable boxes every week that feed local families, supply the school􀆳s food needs and ultimately pay the farmer􀆳s salary. Farm My School has gained the extraordinary enthusiasm of the locals, who answered an online shout-out to buy tickets to the program􀆳s launch event at Bell Secondary School last October. Called Build A Farm in a Day Festival, the event featured workshops by Ben and James to share the skills required to build what they say is the world􀆳s largest no-dig garden. “ It was such a powerful event, and I think that comes down to people wanting to act now,” says James. “We charged for the experience and 600 guys turned up! They didn􀆳t even need free drinks to get excited. We were gardening till midnight. It was amazing. We􀆳ve got true community buy-in. ” Volunteers have since begun beneficial planting throughout the school. Next steps include further discussions with local communities, employing a farmer, and bringing in a teacher to develop courses. “ We􀆳ve seen this huge push towards seeing schools as regenerative spaces, not just for planting but for kids to be more connected to the outside world, and really seeing the school in a whole new light,” James says. “For us, the big excitement is that by allowing a professional farmer to take the responsibility of growing food, it􀆳s not only on the school to look after that farm anymore, which eventually makes it much more sustainable,” adds Ben. 5. Why was Farm My School founded? A. To raise the income of the local people. B. To advocate a commercial farming plan. C. To provide free food for local communities. D. To turn underused campus land into market gardens. 6. How do schools involve students into the program? A. By developing program-based courses. B. By organizing voluntary work in communities. C. By offering them part-time jobs in the market gardens. D.

However, he believes that the practice with fountain pens helps students to focus, to write faster, and they can feel proud of   10  ( they) . 1.           2.           3.         4.           5.           6.         7.           8.           9.         10.         􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 -459- hh#4 写作专练(三) Ⅰ. 应用文写作 (2023·山东聊城模拟) 假定你是李华,你报名参加了你校即将举办 的关于大自然的英文诗歌朗诵大赛 ( poetry recitation contest)。 请给外教 Mr Black 写一封邮 件,请他指导你选材和朗诵练习。 注意: 1. 词数 80 左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 Dear Mr Black,         Yours sincerely, Li Hua Ⅱ. 读后续写 (2023·广东珠海一中模拟) 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头 语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Most of us never forget the person that was there for us in our darkest times. Apparently, penguins (企鹅) don􀆳t either. On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island,Joao Pereira de Souza headed out fishing. He was disheartened to find that an oil leak had polluted the waters. Staring out at the oily waves, he decided it was not a good day to fish. But walking on the beach that day, he found a struggling penguin, covered in oil and starving. Joao took the penguin home, and spent a whole week gently cleaning it and nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim, a Portuguese word meaning “ ice pop ” . Dindim is a Magellanic penguin, a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to breed (繁殖), they must return to Patagonia, 5,000 miles from Joao􀆳s home. After a week of rehabilitation (康复), Joao patiently took Dindim back to the sea and taught it how to swim again. When Dindim could swim quite well,Joao took it out into the sea by boat and dropped it off to encourage it to swim back to its home. But when he was back to the shore, he found the penguin waiting for him. Joao made two more attempts later, but each time the bird would just return to Joao􀆳s home. It seemed that Dindim had already formed a family bond with Joao and wouldn􀆳t leave. Joao had no choice but to keep the little creature. During the following months, Dindim would follow behind Joao to fish on the coast joyfully. Dindim also liked to lie on Joao􀆳s lap, letting Joao give it showers, allowing Joao to feed it fish and to pick it up. Joao and his family enjoyed the company of Dindim. But deep inside Joao􀆳s heart, he knew Dindim belonged to the wild. Gradually, the hot summer days witnessed the change of its new feathers. Was it time to say “goodbye”? 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 Suddenly one morning, Joao found Dindim disappeared.           A few months later,Joao heard some familiar cries in his backyard.           􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 -460-
