The impact it makes 21 you is huge and life is never quite the same again. The world seems to be having more and more whale lovers. Since its beginnings in the mid-50s, whale-watching 22 (grow) quickly and now more than 13 million people join 23 (organize) whale watching trips every year. The trouble is that a few hours of whale watching simply isn’t enough. You go out in the morning and, 24 lunchtime, you are planning your next trip; by teatime, you are planning the one after that. All your holidays center around whales: the only books you read are those about whales, you wear whale T-shirts, and 25 you meet your friends you talk about whales. So, what is it about these larger-than-life animals 26 makes them so special? Their size is one possible explanation. Imagine 27 (sit) in a small boat next to a blue whale almost as long as a Boeing 737; only a lump of rock could remain 28 (unmove) by an experience like that. They are great fun to watch, too. Humpback whales, for example, 29 routinely leap into the air and land back in the water with a huge splash. Then there is the striking and deeply moving level of trust 30 many whales show towards people. It’s a truly humbling experience when an enormous whale comes alongside the boat and greets you like an old friend. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. 【来源】上海市南洋模范中学2024-2025学年高二上学期9月初态考试英语试题 A．weigh   B．bound   C． details   D．collaboratively   E. undisciplined   F. merit. G. frowned   H. giant   I. average   J. harbours   K. solely Is it better to be an early bird or a night owl? Rare is the chief executive who values the virtues of a lie-in. Tim Cook, boss of Apple, maker of the iPhone, wakes between 4am and 5am. So does Bob Iger, his counterpart at Disney, a media 31 . According to one survey, two-thirds of the chief executives of large American companies are up by 6 o’clock; for 32 Americans the share is less than one in three. For those aspiring to corporate greatness, the message seems clear: you snooze, you lose. Your guest Bartleby 33 no such ambitions. But he has, in the past, experimented with early starts, and can confirm that their benefits go beyond the smug sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving at your desk before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems mulled over before the rapid and continuous delivery of emails and meetings begins, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. Those quiet hours of the morning need not be spent 34 on work. In a popular genre of TikTok videos, influencers film themselves performing elaborate morning routines in which they submerge themselves in ice baths, recite affirmations and mindfully prepare coffees. In one widely pilloried video, Kris Krohn, a business coach, 35 how he wakes at 4 in the morning to “align the pharmacy of the body and over-dopamine the mind”. Although Mr Krohn’s routine may lack scientific proof, plenty of research finds 36 in early rising. In a study conducted in 2012 by Renée Biss and Lynn Hasher, then both at the University of Toronto, early birds reported feeling happier and healthier. Night owls, their nocturnal opposites, tend to have less sleep, which can   37 on their mood and health — as well as their productivity. Andrew Conlin of the University of Oulu, in Finland, and co-authors found that men who rose late made 4% less money than those who were up early. Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late continues to be 38 upon in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 by Jessica Dietch of Oregon State University and her co-authors found that night owls were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “ 39 ” and “immature”. To pile on the stereotypes, they are fatter, too, according to research by Lap Ah Tse of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and colleagues. Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready and waiting to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning that those who come in early may end up working just as late as their dawn-averse colleagues. The more emails you send in the morning, the more responses you are 40 to get back. III. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context 【来源】上海交通大学附属中学2023-2024学年高二上学期10月考试英语试题 Probably the number one complaint about reading Shakespeare is that it doesn’t always read like “normal” English. It’s a natural and reasonable 41 . Shakespeare wrote for an audience over 400 years ago. Think about how word meanings and expressions change over a relatively short time; four centuries bring with them a lot of 42 . The Renaissance and England’s emerging status as a sea power 43 the language to an ever-increasing range of cultures and languages. At the same time, there was no real standardization in English. Formal dictionaries and grammar textbooks 44 did not exit, and “proper education focused much more on classical Latin than on colloquial English. Despite this neglect- or perhaps because of it-English by the reign of Elizabeth had a certain flexibility to it, of which Shakespeare 45 . So how can a reader today 46 that gap between then and now? There are two critical areas to 47 : word usage and grammar. Once you understand there fundamental concepts, Shakespeare becomes a lot more 48 . First and foremost, there have been numerous vocabulary changes in English since Shakespeare was writing. While many words are still recognizable today, others have shifted in their meaning or dropped altogether from usage. 49 , when was the last time you heard anyone use words such as bodkin (a piercing tool), contumely (verbal abuse), or fardel (a bundle)? Often the context in which a word is used will help you determine its meaning. A good 50 with detailed footnotes will help you, as well as a good dictionary. The main thing is to be aware that even a familiar word from today may be used within a different meaning in Shakespeare’s works. Grammar is where the 51 of Shakespeare English is often most apparent. Parts of speech are frequently 52 , such as nouns or adjectives becoming verbs. Verbs and subjects don’t always 53 . Even sentence construction can be 54 , with inversions of the basic subject-verb-object order. 55 we would say, “John caught the ball”, Shakespeare might treat the same statement with the same meaning as “John the ball caught” or “The ball John caught.” 41．A．oppression B．accusation C．direction D．appreciation 42．A．specifics B．alternations C．improvements D．incidents 43．A．exposed B．led C．contacted D．linked 44．A．roughly B．arguably C．simply D．essentially 45．A．took pride B．kept track C．took advantage D．gave way 46．A．widen B．avoid C．embrace D．bridge 47．A．address B．deal C．learn D．undertake 48．A．unchanged B．easy C．accessible D．qualified 49．A．In other words B．For example C．Above all D．By contrast 50．A．edition B．medium C．recollection D．download 51．A．confusion B．mixture C．achievement D．flexibility 52．A．switched B．substituted C．excluded D．commanded 53．A．connect B．guarantee C．agree D．neglect 54．A．pitiful B．independent C．unique D．trick 55．A．Before B．While C．Providing D．Since Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A 【来源】上海市复旦大学附属中学2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题 Professor Heinz Wolff, who has died aged 89, was a bioengineering pioneer. He established the discipline, named it and, in a 60-year career, made significant contributions to medical research. But to the British public, he was best known as the dotty scientist who fronted The Great Egg Race, a BBC show in which colour-coded teams were set engineering challenges (the first was to transport an egg in a vehicle powered by rubber bands). With his trademark bow tie, half-moon glasses and Mittel-European accent, he looked really like Professor Branestawn, as described by W. Heath Robinson. Yet while he cheerfully exploited his reputation as a “peculiar egghead”, he was very serious about his work and inspired thousands of young people to consider scientific careers. Born in Berlin in 1928, Heinz Wolff was the son of Jewish parents. His mother died in 1938, and the next year the family fled. They arrived in Britain on the day war was declared. “We really cut it rather fine,” he said on Desert Island Discs in 1998. After leaving school, he worked as a technician at the Radcliffe Infirmary in Oxford, where he invented a machine to count red blood cells, and then at the National Institute for Medical Research’s pneumoconiosis research unit in Cardiff, where he designed a means of measuring dust levels in coal miners. He went on to study at University College London and graduated with a first in physics and physiology. Then, in 1983, he founded the Institute for Bioengineering at Brunel University. His particular interest was in technologies to improve the lives of older people, but he was also heavily involved in space research and worked as an adviser to the European Space Agency. Wolff had made his first appearance on TV on Panorama in 1966, encouraging Richard Dimbleby to swallow a “radio pill”. On The Great Egg Race, which ran from 1979, his task was to get opponent teams representing organizations such as the chemical company ICI. Challenges included building a hovercraft from a lawnmower, and inventing a bicycle that could ride on water. Marks were awarded for entertainment value and technical accomplishment. The show ended in the mid-1980s, but Wolff continued to judge scientific competitions, on TV and elsewhere. A natural entertainer with an inexhaustible curiosity about the world, he said he’d be happy to dress up as a clown if it got children interested in science. 56．The word “dotty” (paragraph1) is closest in meaning to ________. A．strange B．serious C．famous D．genius 57．Which of the following statements is TRUE of Heinz Wolff according to the passage? A．His family left Berlin after World War II began. B．He used to major in physics and physiology. C．He invented a machine while in University College London. D．His interest lay in helping those living in war-stricken areas. 58．Heinz Wolff didn’t mind looking ridiculous as long as ________. A．he could keep being curious about the world B．he could combine entertainment and technology C．he could help arouse children’s interest in science D．he could appear on TV to judge scientific competitions 59．Which of the following is an achievement made by Heinz Wolff? A．Representing a chemical company. B．Designing a method to count red blood cells. C．Being the first scientist to front TV shows. D．Setting up the subject of bioengineering.

A rising economy increased paper sales by 6 to 7 percent each year in the early to mid-1990s, and the convenience of desktop printing allowed office workers to indulge anything and everything. In 2004, Ms. Dunn, a communications supplies director, said that plain white office paper would see less than a 4 percent growth rate, a primary reason for which is that some 47 percent of the workforce entered the job market after computers had already been introduced to offices. For office innovators, the dream of paperless office is an example of high-tech arrogance（傲慢）. Today’s office service is overwhelmed By more newspapers than ever before. After decades of development, the American government can finally get rid of the madness on paper. In the past, the demand for paper has been far ahead of growth in the American economy, but the sales have slowed markedly over the past two to three years, despite the good economic conditions. “Old habits are hard to break,” says Ms. Dunn. “There are some functions that paper serves where a screen display doesn’t work. Those functions are both its strength and its weakness.” Analysts attribute the decline to such factors as advances in digital databases and communication systems. Escaping our craving for paper, however, will be anything but an easy affair. “We’re finally seeing a reduction in the amount of paper being used per worker in the workplace,” says John Maine, vice president of a paper economic consulting firm. “More information is being transmitted electronically, and an increasing number of people are satisfied that information exists only in electronic form without printing multiple backups.” To reduce paper use, some companies are working to combine digital and paper capabilities. For example, Xerox is developing electronic paper: thin digital displays that respond to a stylus, like a pen on paper. Marks can be erased or saved digitally. Even with such technological advances, the increasing amounts of electronic data necessarily require more paper. “The information industry today is composed of a thin paper crust surrounding an electronic core,” Mr. Saffo wrote. The growing paper crust is most noticeable, but the hidden electronic core is far larger and growing more rapidly. The result is that we are becoming paperless, but we hardly notice at all. “That’s one of the greatest ironies of the information age,” Saffo says. “It’s just common sense that the more you talk to someone by phone or computer, it inevitably leads to a face-to-face meeting. The best thing for the aviation industry was the Internet.” 63．Which of the following statements is NOT a reason for the slowdown in American paper sales? A．Workforce with better computer skills. B．Slow growth of the U.S. economy. C．Changing patterns in paper use. D．Changing employment trends. 64．What does the last sentence in Para 3 mean? A．We have to look at paper consumption from different angles. B．There is little chance that paper consumption will fall in the digital age. C．Paper consumption will be greatly reduced in the digital age. D．People are no longer so addicted to paper in the digital age. 65．The innovations from Xerox and other companies feature ___. A．the intergration of digital technology with traditional paper B．the chance from traditional paper to digital technology C．the combination of the use of computer screens and cell phones D．a new type of computer writing and communication 66．What can we draw from the example of the aviation industry in the last paragraph? A．The dream of the paperless office will be realized some day. B．People usually prefer to have face-to-face meetings instead of using computers. C．More digital data use leads to greater paper use in the digital time. D．Some people are no longer opposed to video-conferencing. Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. 【来源】上海市育才中学2023-024学年高二上学期期中英语试卷 Why should mankind explore space? Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What prompted our distant ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? 67 . The wider the distribution of a species, the better its chance of survival. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be located. Additional resources are always beneficial when used wisely, and can increase our chances of survival. Knowledge or techniques acquired through exploration, or preparing to explore, filter from the developers into society at large. 68 . Also, we have already benefited from other by-products, including improvements in earthquake prediction — which has saved many lives —  in satellites used for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick saucepans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products of technological developments in the space industry! 69 . The chances of a large comet hitting the Earth are small, but it could happen in time. Such strikes in the past may account for the extinction of dinosaurs and other species. Human technology is reaching the point where it might be able to detect the possibility of this happening, and enable us to minimize the damage, or prevent it completely, allowing us as a species to avoid extinction. In certain circumstances, life on Earth may become impossible: over-population or wide spread diseases, for instance, might eventually force us to find other places to live. While the earth is the only planet known to sustain life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to inhabit other planets and moons. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. 70 . A．The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. B．Space allows us to expand and succeed: for the sake of everyone on the earth, now and in the future, space exploration is essential. C．The mysterious space objects varying in size have been fascinated scientists and scholars for years. D．It appears that we are driven to ensure the success and continuation of not just our own genes, but of the species as a whole. E．Therefore it still poses a problem for us human beings whether to explore the space at the cost of our own homelands. F．While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. IV. Summary Writing （10分） Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. 【来源】上海市奉贤区四校联考2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题 These days our society develops rapidly and forces people to rush. It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However, it’s better for people to take their time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done. The main reason that convinces us to be against doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrong in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry, they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the saying goes, “Haste makes waste.” We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakes by doing work hurriedly. Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our lives. Finally, slower life pace provides better health conditions for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally (精神上). According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases, tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish jobs more slowly than the latter. In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much stress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are much more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

I’ve got three tips to share with you, hoping to make a direction for the future life after your graduation from college. Tip one: There are few things that get you over your own crop more than working hard. Do you want to know how to work hard? It’s not difficult. All you have to do is to listen. Listen to what’s going on around you. Learn how the project you are working on fits into the big picture. Learn how you fit in. When you truly understand how the big picture works, you start being able to expect changes and change your behavior. Tip two: Be kind to everyone. I can’t stress this enough, but it remains true. Kindness will pay back invaluable rewards. Don’t you believe me? I’m sure that at some point you’ll have the opportunity to work for someone who used to be your assistant, or hire someone who used to be your boss. Tip three: Stay interested. Is there anything you can’t stop thinking about? Keep doing it. Interest is the better part of success. You will be great at the things that you are willing to do. Remember that you have time to figure out what you want to do. You have time to try again. Just have courage to do it so long as you’re willing to work hard. Questions: 11. Whom is the speech aimed at? 12. Why does the speaker give the speech? 13. Which of the following is NOT a tip the speaker share? Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage 14．A．The benefits of walking. B．The importance of keeping fit. C．The way of forming a habit. D．The possibility of excising regularly. 15．A．Because it needs much thinking. B．Because people can improve their memory. C．Because it is suitable for everyone. D．Because people needn’t concentrate on it. 16．A．It is the easiest way to lose weight. B．It can be made part of people’s life. C．It can make people’s hearts stronger. D．It prevents people suffering from cancers. 【答案】14．A 15．D 16．D 【原文】 Left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot … you can travel fast or slow. The movement of your feet gets you where you need to go. But it also gets you so much more! Walking is a basic, simple exercise that’s suitable for almost everyone. Walking helps you in many ways. First it makes you heart stronger. Studies show regular walking reduces your chance of heart disease. Walking quickly for 30 minutes a day also helps control high blood pressure. It can reduce your chance of developing some cancers, too. Want to lose weight? You need to burn 600 more calories each day than you eat. Walking is the easiest way. As people age, their brains don’t work as well. One in 14 people over 65 suffers from memory loss. Older people who walk six miles or more per week keep their brains in better shape. Walking helps your mental health, too. Putting one foot in front of the other isn’t difficult. You don’t have to think about it, so you can concentrate on other things. You can make walking part of your day. Instead of parking near your house, park a distance away and walk. Instead of taking the elevator, walk. Make walking a habit, and see how it makes you feel. Questions: 14.What’s the topic of the passage? 15.Why is walking good for people’s mental health? 16. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about walking in the passage? Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. 17．A．He has just been back from South America. B．He has been burnt for a few hours. C．He has been surfing the Internet for long. D．He has been doing school work all night. 18．A．To look for something interesting for pleasure. B．To meet new friends in the net chat-room. C．To release pressure from heavy work.

D．A lot of friends can be made on the Internet. 20．A．People spend much time talking about other interests. B．It takes long to find things because of many useless sites. C．It is hard to start chatting with others in the chat-room. D．It’s hardly the best source of information available. 【答案】17．C 18．D 19．C 20．B 【原文】W: Hi, Bryan. How are you doing? You look tired. M: Oh, I’m a little burned out. I’ve been surfing the Net for the last few hours. W: Were you doing schoolwork, or was it just for pleasure. M: Well, I wanted to get some information on South America for a project I have, but I found a really interesting chat site with people from there and started chatting. W: Well, did you get the information you needed? M: Yes, but then we spent lots of time chatting about other interests. W: I see. The Internet is a wonderful place. There is so much information available. Sometimes I find myself looking for one piece of information, but by the time I have finished, I have lot of more than I started off looking for. M: I know. One thing I really don’t like about it, though, it takes so much longer to find things, because many sites are useless. W: Yes, there is that, and also, I often find the same site over and over again in a search. That definitely wastes lots of my time. M: And of course, there are sites that offer little to no relative information on the topic you are searching for. In my search today, I found quite a few sites that were nothing more than old event calendars. W: Well, I’m sure they were useful to someone at some time, but they should be removed when they’re no longer of use to anyone. M:I agree. With all the time I spend on it, I still find it to be the best source of information available. And speaking of information, I really should read though what I got on the Internet and start working on my subjects. W: Okay. Good luck. It’s funny we had this chat, as I was just on my way home to surf the Net myself. M: Well, it was nice talking to you, and maybe I’ll meet you in a chat room later tonight. Questions: 17. Why does the man look tired? 18. Why did the man surf the Internet? 19. What’s the woman’s opinion about surfing the Internet? 20. What does the man NOT like about the Internet? II.

The impact it makes 21 you is huge and life is never quite the same again. The world seems to be having more and more whale lovers. Since its beginnings in the mid-50s, whale-watching 22 (grow) quickly and now more than 13 million people join 23 (organize) whale watching trips every year. The trouble is that a few hours of whale watching simply isn’t enough. You go out in the morning and, 24 lunchtime, you are planning your next trip; by teatime, you are planning the one after that. All your holidays center around whales: the only books you read are those about whales, you wear whale T-shirts, and 25 you meet your friends you talk about whales. So, what is it about these larger-than-life animals 26 makes them so special? Their size is one possible explanation. Imagine 27 (sit) in a small boat next to a blue whale almost as long as a Boeing 737; only a lump of rock could remain 28 (unmove) by an experience like that. They are great fun to watch, too.

G. frowned   H. giant   I. average   J. harbours   K. solely Is it better to be an early bird or a night owl? Rare is the chief executive who values the virtues of a lie-in. Tim Cook, boss of Apple, maker of the iPhone, wakes between 4am and 5am. So does Bob Iger, his counterpart at Disney, a media 31 . According to one survey, two-thirds of the chief executives of large American companies are up by 6 o’clock; for 32 Americans the share is less than one in three. For those aspiring to corporate greatness, the message seems clear: you snooze, you lose. Your guest Bartleby 33 no such ambitions. But he has, in the past, experimented with early starts, and can confirm that their benefits go beyond the smug sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving at your desk before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems mulled over before the rapid and continuous delivery of emails and meetings begins, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. Those quiet hours of the morning need not be spent 34 on work. In a popular genre of TikTok videos, influencers film themselves performing elaborate morning routines in which they submerge themselves in ice baths, recite affirmations and mindfully prepare coffees. In one widely pilloried video, Kris Krohn, a business coach, 35 how he wakes at 4 in the morning to “align the pharmacy of the body and over-dopamine the mind”. Although Mr Krohn’s routine may lack scientific proof, plenty of research finds 36 in early rising. In a study conducted in 2012 by Renée Biss and Lynn Hasher, then both at the University of Toronto, early birds reported feeling happier and healthier. Night owls, their nocturnal opposites, tend to have less sleep, which can   37 on their mood and health — as well as their productivity. Andrew Conlin of the University of Oulu, in Finland, and co-authors found that men who rose late made 4% less money than those who were up early. Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late continues to be 38 upon in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 by Jessica Dietch of Oregon State University and her co-authors found that night owls were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “ 39 ” and “immature”. To pile on the stereotypes, they are fatter, too, according to research by Lap Ah Tse of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and colleagues. Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready and waiting to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning that those who come in early may end up working just as late as their dawn-averse colleagues. The more emails you send in the morning, the more responses you are 40 to get back. 【答案】 31．H 32．I 33．J 34．K 35．C 36．F 37．A 38．G 39．E 40．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了早起与晚睡（夜猫子）在工作和生活中的不同影响及人们的普遍看法。 31．考查名词。句意：“媒体巨头”迪士尼的首席执行官鲍勃·艾格也是如此。空前为a media，所以空需要名词。giant“巨头”，符合语境，a media giant“媒体巨头”。故选H。 32．考查形容词。句意：对于普通的美国人，比例不到三分之一。此处需要形容词修饰Americans。average“普通的，平均的”，符合语境。表示和前提到的“美国大公司的首席执行官”形成了对比。故选I。 33．考查动词。句意：你的客人Bartleby并没有这样的抱负。根据句中“But he has, in the past, experimented with early starts”可知，Bartleby并没有那么大的野心。harbour“怀抱，怀有”，符合语境，该动词在句中作谓语，句子陈述一般事实，所以用一般现在时态，主语为第三人称单数形式。故选J。 34．考查副词。句意：早晨的安静时光不必仅仅花在工作上。空处需要副词修饰动词spent，表示“早晨的时光不仅仅要花在工作上”，所以副词solely“仅仅”，符合句意。故选K。 35．考查动词。句意：在一则广受批评的视频中，商业教练克瑞斯·克罗恩详细描述了他是如何在凌晨4点起床以“调整身体的药房并过度刺激多巴胺分泌”的。空处为句子的谓语动词，detail为动词“详细说明”，符合语境。句子陈述一般事实，所以用一般现在时态，主语为第三人称单数形式。故选C。 36．考查名词。句意：尽管克罗恩的晨间活动可能缺乏科学严谨性，但大量研究发现早起是有好处的。空处需要名词作finds的宾语。merit为名词“优点，价值”，符合语境。故选F。 37．考查动词。句意：与他们对应的是夜猫子，夜猫子往往睡眠时间较少，这会为情绪和健康带来负担，也会影响效率。空处为定语从句的谓语动词。weigh“有影响”，符合语境，表示睡眠时间较少会影响情绪和健康。空处前情态动词can，所以空处需要动原形。故选A。 38．考查动词。句意：在大多数工作场所，迟到仍然是不受欢迎的。be frowned upon“不受欢迎”，为固定搭配，表示“迟到不受欢迎”。故选G。 39．考查形容词。句意：由俄勒冈州立大学的杰西卡·迪特奇及其合著者在2022年发布的一项研究发现，夜猫子被受访者认为是“懒惰”、“不守纪律”和“不成熟”的。空处需要形容词，和空前的lazy和空后的immature作并列的表语。undisciplined为形容词“无组织纪律的”，符合语境。故选E。 40．考查形容词。句意：而且你早上发送的电子邮件越多，你得到的回复也必定越多。空处需要形容词作表语。bound为形容词“一定会”，构成固定搭配be bound to do sth.“一定做某事”。故选B。 III.

The Renaissance and England’s emerging status as a sea power 43 the language to an ever-increasing range of cultures and languages. At the same time, there was no real standardization in English. Formal dictionaries and grammar textbooks 44 did not exit, and “proper education focused much more on classical Latin than on colloquial English. Despite this neglect- or perhaps because of it-English by the reign of Elizabeth had a certain flexibility to it, of which Shakespeare 45 . So how can a reader today 46 that gap between then and now? There are two critical areas to 47 : word usage and grammar. Once you understand there fundamental concepts, Shakespeare becomes a lot more 48 .

While many words are still recognizable today, others have shifted in their meaning or dropped altogether from usage. 49 , when was the last time you heard anyone use words such as bodkin (a piercing tool), contumely (verbal abuse), or fardel (a bundle)? Often the context in which a word is used will help you determine its meaning. A good 50 with detailed footnotes will help you, as well as a good dictionary. The main thing is to be aware that even a familiar word from today may be used within a different meaning in Shakespeare’s works. Grammar is where the 51 of Shakespeare English is often most apparent. Parts of speech are frequently 52 , such as nouns or adjectives becoming verbs. Verbs and subjects don’t always 53 . Even sentence construction can be 54 , with inversions of the basic subject-verb-object order. 55 we would say, “John caught the ball”, Shakespeare might treat the same statement with the same meaning as “John the ball caught” or “The ball John caught.” 41．A．oppression B．accusation C．direction D．appreciation 42．A．specifics B．alternations C．improvements D．incidents 43．A．exposed B．led C．contacted D．linked 44．A．roughly B．arguably C．simply D．essentially 45．A．took pride B．kept track C．took advantage D．gave way 46．A．widen B．avoid C．embrace D．bridge 47．A．address B．deal C．learn D．undertake 48．A．unchanged B．easy C．accessible D．qualified 49．A．In other words B．For example C．Above all D．By contrast 50．A．edition B．medium C．recollection D．download 51．A．confusion B．mixture C．achievement D．flexibility 52．A．switched B．substituted C．excluded D．commanded 53．A．connect B．guarantee C．agree D．neglect 54．A．pitiful B．independent C．unique D．trick 55．A．Before B．While C．Providing D．Since 【答案】 41．B 42．B 43．A 44．C 45．C 46．D 47．A 48．C 49．B 50．A 51．D 52．A 53．C 54．D 55．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。阅读莎士比亚作品时，人们最大的抱怨可能是它读起来并不像“正常”的英语，文章主要分析了莎士比亚英语之所以难度的原因以及如何解决这一问题。 41．考查名词词义辨析。句意：这是一个自然而合理的指控。A. oppression压迫；B. accusation控告；C. direction方向；D. appreciation欣赏。根据上文“Probably the number one complaint about reading Shakespeare is that it doesn’t always read like “normal” English.(阅读莎士比亚作品时，人们最大的抱怨可能是它读起来并不像“正常”的英语)”可知，上文人们在控诉莎士比亚的作品难读懂。故选B。 42．考查名词词义辨析。句意：想想单词的含义和表达在相对较短的时间内是如何变化的；四个世纪给他们带来了很多变化。A. specifics细节；B. alternations变化，交替；C. improvements改善；D. incidents事件。根据上文“Think about how word meanings and expressions change over a relatively short time”可知，此处强调单词含义和表达的变化，故选B。 43．考查动词词义辨析。句意：文艺复兴和英国作为海上强国的地位使英语接触到越来越多的文化和语言。A. exposed暴露；B. led带领；C. contacted交往；D. linked连接。根据后文“the language to an ever-increasing range of cultures and languages.”可知，英语在文艺复兴时期接触到越来越多的文化和语言。故选A。 44．考查副词词义辨析。句意：正式的字典和语法教科书根本没有退出，而“适当的教育更多地侧重于古典拉丁语，而不是口语英语”。A. roughly大概；B. arguably按理；C. simply仅仅，根本；D. essentially本质上。根据后文“did not exit, and “proper education focused much more on classical Latin than on colloquial English.”可知，正式的字典和语法教科书根本没有退出，而“适当的教育更多地侧重于古典拉丁语，而不是口语英语”。故选C。 45．考查动词短语辨析。句意：尽管存在这种忽视——或许正因为如此——伊丽莎白统治时期的英语有一定的灵活性，莎士比亚利用了这一点。A. took pride以……为骄傲；B. kept track追踪；C. took advantage利用；D. gave way让步。根据上文“English by the reign of Elizabeth had a certain flexibility to it, of which Shakespeare”指莎士比亚利用了英语当时的灵活性。故选C。 46．考查动词词义辨析。句意：那么，今天的读者如何才能跨越过去和现在之间的鸿沟呢？A. widen变宽；B. avoid避免；C. embrace拥抱；D. bridge弥合。根据后文“that gap between then and now”指弥合过去和现在的鸿沟，应用动词bridge。故选D。 47．考查动词词义辨析。句意：有两个关键领域需要解决：词汇用法和语法。A. address解决；B. deal交易；C. learn学习；D. undertake承担。上文提到今天的读者如何才能跨越过去和现在之间的鸿沟，后文指出有两个关键领域需要解决：词汇用法和语法。故选A。 48．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：一旦你理解了这些基本概念，莎士比亚就变得容易理解了。A. unchanged不变的；B. easy容易的；C. accessible可到达的，可以理解的；D. qualified有资格的。根据上文“Once you understand there fundamental concepts, Shakespeare becomes a lot more”中once引导条件状语从句，说明一旦你理解了这些基本概念，莎士比亚就变得容易理解了。故选C。 49．考查介词短语辨析。句意：例如，你最后一次听到有人使用bodkin（穿孔工具）、contumely（辱骂）或fardel（捆绑）等词是什么时候？A.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A 【来源】上海市复旦大学附属中学2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题 Professor Heinz Wolff, who has died aged 89, was a bioengineering pioneer. He established the discipline, named it and, in a 60-year career, made significant contributions to medical research. But to the British public, he was best known as the dotty scientist who fronted The Great Egg Race, a BBC show in which colour-coded teams were set engineering challenges (the first was to transport an egg in a vehicle powered by rubber bands). With his trademark bow tie, half-moon glasses and Mittel-European accent, he looked really like Professor Branestawn, as described by W. Heath Robinson. Yet while he cheerfully exploited his reputation as a “peculiar egghead”, he was very serious about his work and inspired thousands of young people to consider scientific careers. Born in Berlin in 1928, Heinz Wolff was the son of Jewish parents. His mother died in 1938, and the next year the family fled. They arrived in Britain on the day war was declared. “We really cut it rather fine,” he said on Desert Island Discs in 1998. After leaving school, he worked as a technician at the Radcliffe Infirmary in Oxford, where he invented a machine to count red blood cells, and then at the National Institute for Medical Research’s pneumoconiosis research unit in Cardiff, where he designed a means of measuring dust levels in coal miners. He went on to study at University College London and graduated with a first in physics and physiology. Then, in 1983, he founded the Institute for Bioengineering at Brunel University. His particular interest was in technologies to improve the lives of older people, but he was also heavily involved in space research and worked as an adviser to the European Space Agency. Wolff had made his first appearance on TV on Panorama in 1966, encouraging Richard Dimbleby to swallow a “radio pill”. On The Great Egg Race, which ran from 1979, his task was to get opponent teams representing organizations such as the chemical company ICI. Challenges included building a hovercraft from a lawnmower, and inventing a bicycle that could ride on water. Marks were awarded for entertainment value and technical accomplishment. The show ended in the mid-1980s, but Wolff continued to judge scientific competitions, on TV and elsewhere. A natural entertainer with an inexhaustible curiosity about the world, he said he’d be happy to dress up as a clown if it got children interested in science. 56．The word “dotty” (paragraph1) is closest in meaning to ________. A．strange B．serious C．famous D．genius 57．Which of the following statements is TRUE of Heinz Wolff according to the passage? A．His family left Berlin after World War II began.

A rising economy increased paper sales by 6 to 7 percent each year in the early to mid-1990s, and the convenience of desktop printing allowed office workers to indulge anything and everything. In 2004, Ms. Dunn, a communications supplies director, said that plain white office paper would see less than a 4 percent growth rate, a primary reason for which is that some 47 percent of the workforce entered the job market after computers had already been introduced to offices. For office innovators, the dream of paperless office is an example of high-tech arrogance（傲慢）. Today’s office service is overwhelmed By more newspapers than ever before. After decades of development, the American government can finally get rid of the madness on paper. In the past, the demand for paper has been far ahead of growth in the American economy, but the sales have slowed markedly over the past two to three years, despite the good economic conditions. “Old habits are hard to break,” says Ms. Dunn. “There are some functions that paper serves where a screen display doesn’t work. Those functions are both its strength and its weakness.” Analysts attribute the decline to such factors as advances in digital databases and communication systems. Escaping our craving for paper, however, will be anything but an easy affair. “We’re finally seeing a reduction in the amount of paper being used per worker in the workplace,” says John Maine, vice president of a paper economic consulting firm. “More information is being transmitted electronically, and an increasing number of people are satisfied that information exists only in electronic form without printing multiple backups.” To reduce paper use, some companies are working to combine digital and paper capabilities. For example, Xerox is developing electronic paper: thin digital displays that respond to a stylus, like a pen on paper. Marks can be erased or saved digitally. Even with such technological advances, the increasing amounts of electronic data necessarily require more paper. “The information industry today is composed of a thin paper crust surrounding an electronic core,” Mr. Saffo wrote. The growing paper crust is most noticeable, but the hidden electronic core is far larger and growing more rapidly. The result is that we are becoming paperless, but we hardly notice at all. “That’s one of the greatest ironies of the information age,” Saffo says. “It’s just common sense that the more you talk to someone by phone or computer, it inevitably leads to a face-to-face meeting. The best thing for the aviation industry was the Internet.” 63．Which of the following statements is NOT a reason for the slowdown in American paper sales? A．Workforce with better computer skills. B．Slow growth of the U.S. economy. C．Changing patterns in paper use. D．Changing employment trends. 64．What does the last sentence in Para 3 mean? A．We have to look at paper consumption from different angles. B．There is little chance that paper consumption will fall in the digital age. C．Paper consumption will be greatly reduced in the digital age. D．People are no longer so addicted to paper in the digital age. 65．The innovations from Xerox and other companies feature ___. A．the intergration of digital technology with traditional paper B．the chance from traditional paper to digital technology C．the combination of the use of computer screens and cell phones D．a new type of computer writing and communication 66．What can we draw from the example of the aviation industry in the last paragraph? A．The dream of the paperless office will be realized some day. B．People usually prefer to have face-to-face meetings instead of using computers. C．More digital data use leads to greater paper use in the digital time. D．Some people are no longer opposed to video-conferencing. 【答案】63．B 64．B 65．A 66．C 【分析】本文是一篇社会类短文阅读。随着信息化的发展，越来越多的公司实行无纸化办公，但是，无纸化办公真的无纸吗？ 63．细节理解题。根据文章第二段In the past, the demand for paper has been far ahead of growth in the American economy, but the sales have slowed markedly over the past two to three years, despite the good economic conditions.可知，尽管美国经济状况良好，纸张的销售却显著放缓。故选B。 64．句意理解题。根据文章第三段Analysts attribute the decline to such factors as advances in digital databases and communication systems. Escaping our craving for paper, however, will be anything but an easy affair.可知，分析人士认为纸张的下降归因于数字数据库和通信系统的进步等因素。然而，要摆脱对纸张的迫切需要绝非易事。所以这句话可以理解为：在数字时代，纸张消费下降的可能性很小。故选B。 65．细节理解题。根据文章第五段To reduce paper use, some companies are working to combine digital and paper capabilities.可知，为了减少纸张的使用，施乐公司与其他公司正在努力将数字和纸张功能结合起来。故选A。 66．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段The result is that we are becoming paperless, but we hardly notice at all. “That’s one of the greatest ironies of the information age,” Saffo says. “It’s just common sense that the more you talk to someone by phone or computer, it inevitably leads to a face-to-face meeting. The best thing for the aviation industry was the Internet.可知，信息时代最大的讽刺是我们正在变得无纸化，从而可以推断出在数字时代，更多的数字数据的使用导致更多纸张的使用。故选C。 【点睛】推理判断题属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题，做这类题目时，同学们要严格依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气，找出能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的词句，然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断，从而得出符合逻辑的结论。如小题4中考查最后一段举航空的例子，我们能得出什么结论。可以从原文最后一段的中心句That’s one of the greatest ironies of the information age再根据后面所举航空的例子，从而推断出答案。 Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully.

What prompted our distant ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? 67 . The wider the distribution of a species, the better its chance of survival. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be located. Additional resources are always beneficial when used wisely, and can increase our chances of survival. Knowledge or techniques acquired through exploration, or preparing to explore, filter from the developers into society at large. 68 . Also, we have already benefited from other by-products, including improvements in earthquake prediction — which has saved many lives —  in satellites used for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick saucepans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products of technological developments in the space industry! 69 . The chances of a large comet hitting the Earth are small, but it could happen in time. Such strikes in the past may account for the extinction of dinosaurs and other species. Human technology is reaching the point where it might be able to detect the possibility of this happening, and enable us to minimize the damage, or prevent it completely, allowing us as a species to avoid extinction. In certain circumstances, life on Earth may become impossible: over-population or wide spread diseases, for instance, might eventually force us to find other places to live. While the earth is the only planet known to sustain life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to inhabit other planets and moons. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. 70 . A．The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. B．Space allows us to expand and succeed: for the sake of everyone on the earth, now and in the future, space exploration is essential. C．The mysterious space objects varying in size have been fascinated scientists and scholars for years. D．It appears that we are driven to ensure the success and continuation of not just our own genes, but of the species as a whole. E．Therefore it still poses a problem for us human beings whether to explore the space at the cost of our own homelands. F．While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. 【答案】67．D 68．A 69．F 70．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述人类探索太空的原因和必要性。 67．根据上文“What prompted our distant ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? (是什么促使我们遥远的祖先从树上迁移到平原，并继续迁移到所有可能的地区和环境？)”和下文“The wider the distribution of a species, the better its chance of survival. (一个物种的分布越广，它的生存机会就越大。)”可知设空处应是回答上文，即物种会迁移的原因，所以D选项“似乎我们被驱使着不仅要确保我们自己基因的成功和延续，还要确保整个物种的成功和延续。”起到承上启下的作用，符合题意，故选D。 68．根据上文“Knowledge or techniques acquired through exploration, or preparing to explore, filter from the developers into society at large. (通过探索或准备探索而获得的知识或技术将从开发者那里渗透到整个社会中。)”可推断下文应是进一步说明这些知识或技术在社会中的作用，所以A项“这些技术可能在医学上有应用，可以延长我们的寿命或提高我们的生活质量。”符合题意，故选A。 69．根据下文“The chances of a large comet hitting the Earth are small, but it could happen in time. Such strikes in the past may account for the extinction of dinosaurs and other species. (大彗星撞击地球的几率很小，但迟早会发生。过去的这种撞击可能是恐龙和其他物种灭绝的原因。)”可推断上文应是说明宇宙的运行应该存在危险，故F选项“虽然太空中可能有许多关于宇宙如何形成或如何运作的奇迹和解释，但它也存在危险。”切题，故选F。 70．根据上文“While the earth is the only planet known to sustain life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to inhabit other planets and moons. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. (虽然地球是已知的唯一能维持生命的行星，但人类的适应能力肯定能让我们在其他行星和卫星上居住。生活方式确实会有所不同，但人类的生活和文化在过去已经适应了，在未来肯定会适应。)”可知说的是探索探空的趋势和必要性，对探空探索进行总结，故B选项“太空使我们得以扩张和成功：为了地球上的每个人，现在和将来，太空探索是必不可少的。”符合语境，故选B。 IV.

It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However, it’s better for people to take their time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done. The main reason that convinces us to be against doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrong in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry, they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the saying goes, “Haste makes waste.” We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakes by doing work hurriedly. Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our lives. Finally, slower life pace provides better health conditions for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally (精神上). According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases, tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish jobs more slowly than the latter. In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much stress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are much more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Despite being accustomed to the fast pace in modern society, people are recommended to lead a slower life.
