He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence (青少年). Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and five- year - old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. As Nalin was busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 24. What do we know about Nalin Kamat from the first two paragraphs? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 25. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their work. B. To form the connection between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 26. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Pioneering. B. Short-lived. C. Popular. D. Unpromising. 27. What kind of person is Nalin Kamat according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B. Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了15岁的多伦多青少年纳林·卡马特因为无法参加评审展览而受挫，但这激发了他为更多年轻艺术家提供展示机会的决心。在父母的支持下，他创办了Little EGG Gallery的故事。 24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18.(就在那时，他遇到了一个障碍，在一份多页申请表的最后一行发现提交作品的最低年龄是18岁。)”可知，Nalin Kamat因为年龄问题而被取消了参加评审展览的资格。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work.(“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery，现在这家画廊通过向任何展示的作品收取小额悬挂费，已经足够盈利来维持生计了。)”可知，他创办Little EGG Gallery的目的是为了给年轻艺术家提供一个展示才华的舞台。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery(那次拒绝成为了他创作的动力。“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery。)”根据第四段“a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void ( 空白) in the art world.”（一个有着非常优秀想法的强大年轻艺术家——为展示年轻人的天才创造了一个空间。这是艺术界的一个空白）可知，Nalin想要为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，于是他租了一个店面并创办了Little EGG Gallery，这是一个创新的想法，因此可以用pioneering（开创性的）来形容他的想法。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist.(到纳林·卡马特13岁时，这位多伦多少年已经踏上了成为职业艺术家道路。)”、根据文章第二段“That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18.(就在那时，他遇到了一个障碍，在一份多页申请表的最后一行发现提交作品的最低年龄是18岁。)”和文章第三段“That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery(那次拒绝成为了他创作的动力。“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery。)”可知，Nalin Kamat在13岁时就举办了自己的画展，并且因为无法参加评审展览而创办了Little EGG Gallery，展示年轻艺术家的作品。这些行为表明他是一个有创造力和奉献精神的人，因此选项B：Devoted and creative(有奉献精神和创造力的)最符合他的特点。故选B。 C On a recent afternoon, dozens of elderly farmers were playing chess in a courtyard, a common scene at the Madongchuan Township Zhaotai Village Mutual Support Nursing Home in Yan’ an, a hilly part of Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self-service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. The younger ones grow vegetables in a small path of land nearby. They cook outdoors using a shared kitchen, and the food is delivered to those with mobility issues. After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. Local authorities also hired a retired village doctor to oversee the facility so that the residents no longer have to go to the hospital for less severe health problems such as cold and fever. “They were enjoying themselves in the moment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zhao Liwen, secretary-general of Taikang Yicai Foundation, said of her first impression about the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity offered help by donating 1 million yuan to the nursing home. When she arrived, the seniors, all empty-nesters who are either childless or have children working in big cities, were wrapping dumplings together. The scene was a sharp contrast from life in the area more than a decade ago. Village elders used to live lonely lives, scattered (分散) among the remote area and unable to access hospitals and other public services. Then in 2013, a flood washed their homes away, forcing them to move into the nursing facility. The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural (乡村的) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside. 28. What do the elderly residents do in the nursing facility? A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjoy their leisure activities. C. They share advanced medical services. D. They employ caregivers to look after them. 29. What approach does the nursing home in Yan’ an take to deal with the rural aging? A. Following strict regulations. B. Developing mutual cooperation. C. Conducting commercial strategies. D. Promoting individual independence. 30. What is the author’s attitude to the self- service nursing home? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favorable. D. Disapproving. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Rural Revival: China’s Approach to Aging Population B. Promoting traditional values: A Tale of Aging in Rural China C. Bridging Generation Gaps: The Story of Yan’ an’s Nursing Home D. Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了延安一个自助养老院的故事，展示了农村互助养老模式。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. (饭后，许多人在闲暇时下棋或聊天)”可知，护理机构中的老年人享受他们的休闲活动，故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self - service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. (这里看不到护理人员。相反，在这个由马东川乡一所废弃的小学改建而成的自助养老院里，老人们互相照顾彼此)”最后一段“Compared with a more commercial or rule - based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. (与城市中更加商业化或以规则为基础的社会相比，中国的农村社区通过个人关系和相互信任来运作)”可知，延安敬老院发展互助合作应对农村老龄化，故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural(乡村的) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. (延安的养老院是中国不断努力利用农村地区“关系型社区”的优势来确保快速老龄化居民得到照顾的最好例子之一)”可知，作者对自助式养老院的态度是支持的，故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文及最后一段中“Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside.(与城市中更商业化或规则化的社会相比，中国的农村社区以个人关系和相互信任为基础运作。养老院展示的自给自足、相互依赖的文化得到了当局的支持，以应对农村的老龄化问题)”可知，文章围绕延安农村基于关系型社区的养老院展开，详细描述了其中老人们的生活以及这种社区关系的作用，D项“Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China (关系型社区：中国农村的一家养老院)”最能概括全文，故选D项。 D Researchers have discovered that limiting a certain enzyme (酶) can have a dramatic impact in protecting against the effects of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症). The finding could lead to a new class of drugs that fight the disease. Much of the historical research into Alzheimer’s disease(AD) has focused on plaques (斑块) that form in the brain, which recently, though, have been found not likely to be the direct cause of it. In seeking another way forward, a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s. With the intention of investigating how PDE4B might affect the brain, the UK team genetically modified (改造) mice with Alzheimer’s to reduce PDE4B activity. The results are astonishing. First, the mice with Alzheimer’s and normal PDE4B expression showed memory loss in the sense of direction, a distinctive characteristic of AD. But those who had the genetic modification to have less PDE4B activity showed no damage at all. The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD, decreased to some extent in the brains of mice with less PDE4B activity, compared to those with more of the enzyme. Because all of these effects were found in the mice that already had Alzheimer’s but had significant improvement in symptoms, the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways. “These results offer real hope for the development of new treatments that will benefit patients with Alzheimer’s disease in the future,” said Neil Dawson, a co- author of the study. “The next stage is to test whetherPDE4B- limiting drugs have similar beneficial effects in the AD mouse model, to test their potential effectiveness in human Alzheimer’s disease.” 32. How did the British researchers get the inspiration? A. By figuring out the direct cause of AD. B. By going over much historical research. C. By referring to a previous Australian study. D. By breaking down PDE4B in the AD mouse. 33. What can be learnt about PDE4B? A. Its activity promotes the sense of direction. B. It might bring about the development of AD. C. It is processed by a certain enzyme in the brain. D. It will be investigated to reduce mice brain activity. 34. What does the underlined word “hallmark” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Cause. B. Feature. C. Principle. D. Finding. 35. What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. The future research focus. B. The existing research background. C. The probable research limitation. D. The practical research application. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了限制PDE4B酶对阿尔兹海默症的影响及其研究前景。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s (一组英国研究人员参考了一项澳大利亚研究，该研究表明，拥有生产一种名为PDE4B的酶的基因被确定为患阿尔兹海默症的风险因素。)”可知，英国研究人员是通过参考之前的澳大利亚研究获得灵感的。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s (一组英国研究人员参考了一项澳大利亚研究，该研究表明，拥有生产一种名为PDE4B的酶的基因被确定为患阿尔兹海默症的风险因素。)”可知，PDE4B可能会导致阿尔兹海默症的发展。故选B。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段中的“a distinctive characteristic of AD.(阿尔兹海默症一个显著特征)”“The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD (研究团队还观察到，炎症——阿尔兹海默症的另一个标志)”可知，hallmark意为“特征”。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways.

I was in one of the many street markets of Luzhou, a small city located in China’s Sichuan Province. Already, a crowd of curious on - lookers was gathering: white - haired grandmas, toothless old men, mothers holding infants. Everyone was waiting, wondering why the foreigner was causing such a fuss (大惊小怪). I took a deep breath. The crowd leaned in. “Do you have a pumpkin?” I asked as clearly as possible. A mother holding an infant explained there was no pumpkin here in English. I had to move on to yet another market in my search for Halloween. As an American English teacher in China, the urge was strong to explain my country’s cultural traditions to my students. I’d had plenty of success in teaching the Chinese about significant United States holidays and events, Halloween being one of them. Yet I was now in a new teaching position, in a different region of the country which seems to have every kind of produce known to man except the one I wanted for Oct.31. I had learned that in teaching about Halloween, there was no substitute (替代品) for a carved pumpkin. Descriptions produced blank stares. Drawings were misinterpreted. Pictures only puzzled. Sure, I could give up showing a real jack-o’- lantern (南瓜灯) to my students. I could lecture on the history of this tradition, which had its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirits of dead people. We could have a go at wearing masks, and role- play trick - or - treat. But nothing could compare with the pumpkin. For that reason, I was willing to go through just about anything to find a pumpkin for my students. In another section of the city, I headed to a big market. “Do you have a pumpkin?” I asked the seller I saw. “A what?” she seemed to be at a loss. However, I didn’t know how to make her understand what I wanted. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, an idea occurred to me. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Oct. 31, I brought the carefully - carved pumpkin into the class. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Suddenly, an idea occurred to me. I could bridge the language gap with visuals! I drew a simple sketch of a pumpkin, complete with a stem on top and the characteristic ridges (纹路). “I need something like this,” I said, showing my drawing to the seller. She studied the sketch with curiosity, then looked up at me, understanding dawning on her face. After a moment, she disappeared behind a pile of produce and soon returned with a round, orange pumpkin. “That’s it!” I exclaimed, my face lit up with joy. Immediately I rushed back home, starting to carve my beautiful pumpkin. On Oct. 31, I brought the carefully- carved pumpkin into the class. The students gathered around, their eyes wide with curiosity as they observed the delicately carved face with a flickering candle inside. It was indeed a traditional jack-o’- lantern, and it captured the essence of the holiday. As the light cast shadows around the room, I began to tell them about the origins of Halloween, the legends of spirits and the custom of carving pumpkins to drive off evil spirits. They listened attentively, eyes fixed on me. We were all connected through the universal language of celebration and tradition despite the cultural differences. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者作为一名在中国教英语的美国人，在教授学生关于万圣节的文化传统时，发现没有南瓜作为教学道具，这对他来说是不可或缺的。尽管他尝试了各种方式解释和寻找南瓜，但由于所在地区似乎没有南瓜这种农产品，他遇到了很大的困难。然而，为了让学生更好地理解和体验万圣节文化，他坚持不懈地寻找南瓜。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“突然，我想到了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写这个主意的具体内容以及作者实施的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“10月31日，我把精心雕刻的南瓜带到了课堂上。”可知，第二段可描写学生们看到南瓜的反应，作者介绍传统文化的过程以及感悟。 2.续写线索：得到南瓜——雕刻南瓜——学生围观南瓜——分享节日传统——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 弥补：bridge/compensate for 展示：show/demonstrate 注视：fix on/gaze at 情绪类 快乐：joy/delight 专心地：attentively/intently 【点睛】[高分句型1] She studied the sketch with curiosity, then looked up at me, understanding dawning on her face.（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] As the light cast shadows around the room, I began to tell them about the origins of Halloween, the legends of spirits and the custom of carving pumpkins to drive off evil spirits.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024学年第一学期浙江省名校协作体试题 高二年级英语学科 考生须知： 1．本卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟; 2．答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写学校、班级、姓名、试场号、座位号及准考证号; 3．所有答案必须写在答题卷上，写在试卷上无效; 4．考试结束后，只需上交答题卷。 选择题部分 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

B By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist. He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence (青少年). Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and five- year - old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. As Nalin was busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 24. What do we know about Nalin Kamat from the first two paragraphs? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 25. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their work. B. To form the connection between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 26. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Pioneering. B. Short-lived. C. Popular. D. Unpromising. 27. What kind of person is Nalin Kamat according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B. Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. C On a recent afternoon, dozens of elderly farmers were playing chess in a courtyard, a common scene at the Madongchuan Township Zhaotai Village Mutual Support Nursing Home in Yan’ an, a hilly part of Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self-service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. The younger ones grow vegetables in a small path of land nearby. They cook outdoors using a shared kitchen, and the food is delivered to those with mobility issues. After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. Local authorities also hired a retired village doctor to oversee the facility so that the residents no longer have to go to the hospital for less severe health problems such as cold and fever. “They were enjoying themselves in the moment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zhao Liwen, secretary-general of Taikang Yicai Foundation, said of her first impression about the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity offered help by donating 1 million yuan to the nursing home. When she arrived, the seniors, all empty-nesters who are either childless or have children working in big cities, were wrapping dumplings together. The scene was a sharp contrast from life in the area more than a decade ago. Village elders used to live lonely lives, scattered (分散) among the remote area and unable to access hospitals and other public services. Then in 2013, a flood washed their homes away, forcing them to move into the nursing facility. The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural (乡村的) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside. 28. What do the elderly residents do in the nursing facility? A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjoy their leisure activities. C. They share advanced medical services. D. They employ caregivers to look after them. 29. What approach does the nursing home in Yan’ an take to deal with the rural aging? A. Following strict regulations. B. Developing mutual cooperation. C. Conducting commercial strategies. D. Promoting individual independence. 30. What is the author’s attitude to the self- service nursing home? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favorable. D. Disapproving. 31 Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Rural Revival: China’s Approach to Aging Population B. Promoting traditional values: A Tale of Aging in Rural China C. Bridging Generation Gaps: The Story of Yan’ an’s Nursing Home D. Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China D Researchers have discovered that limiting a certain enzyme (酶) can have a dramatic impact in protecting against the effects of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症). The finding could lead to a new class of drugs that fight the disease. Much of the historical research into Alzheimer’s disease(AD) has focused on plaques (斑块) that form in the brain, which recently, though, have been found not likely to be the direct cause of it. In seeking another way forward, a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s. With the intention of investigating how PDE4B might affect the brain, the UK team genetically modified (改造) mice with Alzheimer’s to reduce PDE4B activity. The results are astonishing. First, the mice with Alzheimer’s and normal PDE4B expression showed memory loss in the sense of direction, a distinctive characteristic of AD. But those who had the genetic modification to have less PDE4B activity showed no damage at all. The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD, decreased to some extent in the brains of mice with less PDE4B activity, compared to those with more of the enzyme. Because all of these effects were found in the mice that already had Alzheimer’s but had significant improvement in symptoms, the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways. “These results offer real hope for the development of new treatments that will benefit patients with Alzheimer’s disease in the future,” said Neil Dawson, a co- author of the study. “The next stage is to test whetherPDE4B- limiting drugs have similar beneficial effects in the AD mouse model, to test their potential effectiveness in human Alzheimer’s disease.” 32. How did the British researchers get the inspiration? A. By figuring out the direct cause of AD. B. By going over much historical research. C. By referring to a previous Australian study. D. By breaking down PDE4B in the AD mouse. 33. What can be learnt about PDE4B? A. Its activity promotes the sense of direction. B. It might bring about the development of AD. C. It is processed by a certain enzyme in the brain. D. It will be investigated to reduce mice brain activity. 34. What does the underlined word “hallmark” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Cause. B. Feature. C. Principle. D. Finding. 35. What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. The future research focus. B. The existing research background. C. The probable research limitation. D. The practical research application. 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。 Get lucky!

I was in one of the many street markets of Luzhou, a small city located in China’s Sichuan Province. Already, a crowd of curious on - lookers was gathering: white - haired grandmas, toothless old men, mothers holding infants. Everyone was waiting, wondering why the foreigner was causing such a fuss (大惊小怪). I took a deep breath. The crowd leaned in. “Do you have a pumpkin?” I asked as clearly as possible. A mother holding an infant explained there was no pumpkin here in English. I had to move on to yet another market in my search for Halloween. As an American English teacher in China the urge was strong to explain my country’s cultural traditions to my students. I’d had plenty of success in teaching the Chinese about significant United States holidays and events, Halloween being one of them. Yet I was now in a new teaching position, in a different region of the country which seems to have every kind of produce known to man except the one I wanted for Oct.31. I had learned that in teaching about Halloween, there was no substitute (替代品) for a carved pumpkin. Descriptions produced blank stares. Drawings were misinterpreted. Pictures only puzzled. Sure, I could give up showing a real jack-o’- lantern (南瓜灯) to my students. I could lecture on the history of this tradition, which had its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirits of dead people. We could have a go at wearing masks, and role- play trick - or - treat. But nothing could compare with the pumpkin. For that reason, I was willing to go through just about anything to find a pumpkin for my students. In another section of the city, I headed to a big market. “Do you have a pumpkin?” I asked the seller I saw. “A what?” she seemed to be at a loss. However, I didn’t know how to make her understand what I wanted. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, an idea occurred to me. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Oct. 31, I brought the carefully - carved pumpkin into the class. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$2024学年第一学期浙江省名校协作体试题高2英语考试听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。听力考试正式开始。请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。例如现在你有5秒钟的时间看试卷上的例题。你将听到以下内容。excuse me, can you tell me how much the shirt?
