The floating (流动的) homes of Lake Titicaca More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros’ mainland villages. To resist this threat, the Uros began to build the floating islands with the water- resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the Uros community. The perfect desert town: Ghadames Ghadames is an impressive example of environmental planning. Thick walls delay the sun’s heat entering a building during the day, and radiate that heat back to the sky at night. By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means. Spain’s fairy-tale houses Known as pallozas, the round houses are built from just a handful of materials: stone, wood and dry grass. Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient. The Himalayas’ ancient design The structures in Himachal Pradesh were built by an ancient technique known as Kath kuni. Wood and stones create a fantastic balance. The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake. 1. Which structure was built for defending residents against attackers? A. The Kath kuni structure. B. The floating structure. C. The Ghadames structure. D. The palloza’s structure. 2. What do the houses in Ghadames and pallozas have in common? A. They are sustainable. B. They maximize internal heat. C. They are built for luxury living. D. They’re made of special materials. 3. What makes Kath kuni structures earthquake-resistant? A. The stone frames. B. The narrow openings. C. The flexible wood. D. An interlocking system. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。介绍了四个世界上最不寻常的建筑。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros’ mainland villages. To resist this threat, the Uros began to build the floating islands with the water- resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the Uros community. (500多年前，日益壮大的印加帝国开始占领乌鲁斯人的大陆村庄。为了抵御这种威胁，乌鲁斯人开始用一种叫做托托拉的抗水植物建造浮动岛屿，这种植物生长在湖中，是乌鲁斯社区的命脉)”可知，浮动结构是为了保护居民不受攻击而建造的。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Ghadames is an impressive example of environmental planning. Thick walls delay the sun’s heat entering a building during the day, and radiate that heat back to the sky at night. By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means.(Ghadames是环境规划的一个令人印象深刻的例子。厚厚的墙壁在白天延迟太阳的热量进入建筑物，并在晚上将热量辐射回天空。到了早晨，墙壁又冷却了。巧妙地使用现有的建筑材料，以最小的手段达到最大的舒适度)”以及第四段“Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient.(厚厚的石墙（取决于该地区可用的材料）可以阻挡寒冷并保存内部热量。在内部，palloza的壁炉对保持恒温至关重要，使其节能)”可知，Ghadames和pallozas的房子的共同之处是都是可持续的。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake.(木制框架减轻了地震时开口的压力。厚厚的石头把整座建筑牢牢地固定住了。最重要的是，木片联锁在一起，这使得结构非常灵活，允许墙壁在地震时移动)”可知，联锁系统让凯斯库尼的建筑抗震。故选D。 B Like almost every set of new parents Bryan and Elizabeth Shaw started snapping pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born. When he was about three months old, Elizabeth noticed something odd. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red dot in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something. When Elizabeth took Noah to an eye doctor, Noah was diagnosed with retinal (视网膜) cancer with the white reflection as a sign. He endured months of treatment, but it was too late. Noah’s cancer is treatable if caught early. Bryan Shaw wondered whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently. “By the time he was four months old, it was showing up in 25percent of the pictures taken of him per month,” Bryan recalled. Later, Bryan was determined to put his hard-won insights to good use. He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo of Noah. He also collected photos and compiled the data from eight other children with the same cancer. Armed with that data, he began to work with colleagues to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope (眼底镜). Called White Eye Detector, it is now available for free on Google Play and in Apple’s Apple Store. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.” 4. Why did Bryan and Elizabeth take pictures of Noah? A. To record his growth. B. To celebrate his birth. C. To test their digital camera. D. To collect evidence of eye diseases. 5. Which word can best describe Bryan’s feelings in paragraph 3? A. Terrified. B. Regretful. C. Lonely. D. Exhausted. 6. What can the app do to help? A. It serves as a detector. B. It presents expert advice. C. It saves photos on users’ phones. D. It provides a worldwide database. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. How a boy lost his eye. B. How a new app works. C. How a father saved his son. D. How an app came into being. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了一个关于视网膜癌症检测智能手机应用程序的开发和应用。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Like almost every set of new parents, Bryan and Elizabeth Shaw started snapping pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born.(像几乎所有的新父母一样，布莱恩和伊丽莎白·肖从他们的儿子诺亚出生的那一刻起就开始给他拍照)”可推知，从诺亚出生就开始拍照片，是为了记录他的成长。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Noah’s cancer is treatable if caught early. Bryan Shaw wondered whether there were signs he’d missed.(诺亚的癌症如果发现得早是可以治愈的。布莱恩·肖想知道他是否错过了什么迹象)”可知，布莱恩认为自己错过了早些时候的一些迹象，因此错过了治疗时机。由此，可推理出他很后悔。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Armed with that data, he began to work with colleagues to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope (眼底镜).(有了这些数据，他开始与同事合作开发一款智能手机应用程序，该应用程序可以扫描用户相机胶卷中的照片，以搜索白眼，并可以用作一种眼底镜)”可知，这个app可以扫描相册并且作为眼底镜来发现症状，即该应用程序起到了探测器的作用。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文尤其最后一段““I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.”(“我一直告诉自己，我真的需要这样做，”布莱恩说。“这种疾病很难发现。这个软件不仅可以拯救视力，还可以拯救生命。”)”可知，本文主要讲述了由于未能及时发现迹象，错失儿子的治疗时机后，父亲积极研发app帮助他人的大爱故事。故选D项。 C A handshake seems to be a normal gesture. In fact, in the 9th century BC, an ancient site during the ruling of Shalmaneser Ⅲ clearly shows two figures holding hands. Centuries later, Shakespeare once wrote of two characters who shook hands and swore to be brothers in the book As You Like Ii. Shaking hands seems lo be an ancient custom whose roots have disappeared in the sands of time. Historians who have studied ancient etiquette (礼仪) books note that the modern handshake did not appear until the middle of the 19th century, when it was considered a slightly inappropriate gesture that could only be used between friends. But what if Shakespeare had written about handshaking hundreds of years earlier? According lo author Torbjdm Lundmark in his Tales of Hi and Bye: Greeting and Parting Rituals Around the World the problem comes in different definitions of the handshake. The early handshakes mentioned above were part of making deals or peace. Shakespeare was similarly referencing settlement of a conflict. The modern handshake as a form of greeting is harder lo trace. As a Dutch sociologist Herman Roodenburg—the chief authority for the history of handshaking—wrote in a chapter of an anthology called A Cultural History of Gesture, “More than in any other field, that of the study of gesture is one in which the historian has to make the most of only a few clues”. As the centuries progressed, handshaking was replaced by more hierarchical (等级的) ways of greeting—like bowing. Handshaking survived in a few remote places, like in Dutch towns where some would use the gesture to make peace after disagreements. Around the same time, those who valued equality also made use of handshaking. Then, as the Continent’s hierarchy was weakened, handshaking became a common practice among people of the same rank, as it is today. 8. Why does the author mention Shakespeare in the first two paragraphs? A. To prove that the history of handshaking is hard to find. B. To illustrate that handshaking is a very old custom. C. To show readers that handshaking is common in fiction. D. To explain the value of handshaking in communication. 9. What can we learn about handshaking from the passage? A. The origin of handshaking as a form of greeting is easy lo trace. B. Citizens usually shake hands to show friendliness in Holland. C. It was used only between friends and to reach an agreement. D. It is a common practice between people of different social positions. 10. Which of the following is similar in meaning to “anthology” in Para. 4? A. The science of mental ability. B. A collection of selected literary passages. C. A daily written record of experiences. D. All the living things of a particular region. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage? A. The handshake has disappeared in some remote parts of the Netherlands. B. Handshaking has different meanings in different European countries. C. Handshakes are now common between people of different positions. D. Most Europeans prefer to shake hands owing to the weakening effect of rank. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，这篇文章主要讲述了握手这一古老的礼仪习俗的起源和演变。最后，文章指出握手在欧洲逐渐被鞠躬等具有等级意味的问候方式取代，但在一些地方仍然保留下来，并逐渐成为同等地位人们之间的常见问候方式。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Centuries later, Shakespeare once wrote of two characters who shook hands and swore to be brothers in the book As You Like It. Shaking hands seems to be an ancient custom whose roots have disappeared in the sands of time.”（几个世纪后，莎士比亚曾在《皆大欢喜》中描写两个人物握手并发誓要成为兄弟。握手似乎是一种古老的习俗，其根源已消失在时间的长河中。）以及第二段中“But what if Shakespeare had written about handshaking hundreds of years earlier?”（但是，如果莎士比业在几百年前就写过握手呢？）可知，第一段和第二段中通过莎士比业对于握手这个习俗早已存在，其存在根源消失在历史的长河中，但是通过莎士比亚笔下可以说明握手是这个习俗是非常古老的，在其存在的几百年前，就已经记录过。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Historians who have studied ancient etiquette (礼仪) books note that the modem handshake did not appear until the middle of the 19th century, when it was considered a slightly inappropriate gesture that could only be used between friends.”（研究古代礼仪书籍的历史学家指出，现代握手直到19业纪中叶才出现，当时它被认为是一种稍微不合适的手势，只能在朋友之间使用。）可知，对于握手这个习俗直到19世纪中叶才出现，当时它被认为是一种稍微不合适的手势，只能在朋友之间使用。同时根据第四段中“The early handshakes mentioned above were part of making deals or peace”（上面提到的早期握手是达成协议或和平的一部分）以及“Shakespeare was similarly referencing settlement of a conflict.”（莎士比亚也同样提到了冲突的解决。）可知，握手曾经只在朋友之间使用，并且用来达成协议。故选C。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后而的内容“A Cultural History of Gesture《手势的文化史》”以及“More than in any other field, that of the study of gesture is one in which the historian has to make the most of only a few clues”（在手势研究领域，历史学家只需要充分利用少数线索，这一点在其他任何领域都不常见）可知，荷兰社会学家林尔曼·卢登堡所撰写的著作即《手势的文化史》中的一个章节指出在手势研究领域，历史学家只需要充分利用少数线索，这一点在其他任何领域都不常见的事实。故划线词表示荷兰社会学家赫尔曼·卢登堡所撰写文章的精选的文学段落，其与B为同义词。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Around the same time, those who valued equality also made use of handshaking. Then, as he Continent’s hierarchy was weakened, handshaking became a common practice among people of the same rank, as it is today.”（大约在同一时期，那些重视平等的人也会使用握手。然后，随着欧洲大陆的等级制度被削弱，握手成为同一等级的人之间的一种普遍做法，就像今天一样。）可知，大多数欧洲人更喜欢握手，因为等级的影响越来越弱。故选D。 D Inspired by the medical bay of the USS Enterprise from Star Trek (星际迷航), a research team from the University of Waterloo uses radar technology to monitor people’s health while at the wheel, turning an ordinary car or truck into a mobile medical center. Dr. George Shaker, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, is working with a team of graduate students to combine radar with evolving vehicle technology to make health checks easier. The idea is to use the time people spend in their cars to gather data on their health for accurate analysis and preventative treatment — without the need for any type of wearable. The radar, smaller than a USB thumb drive, is placed into the vehicle cabin and sends out signals that detect human vibrations (颤动), which are then sent back to the radar. The built-in AI system collects and analyzes the data to build a medical picture and identify any potential conditions. At the end of the driver’s journey, the system sends the report directly to their cell phone for review. For Shaker and his team, the challenge was evolving the tech to identify changes in breathing patterns or heart rhythms that signify potential health issues related to cardiovascular conditions as well as respiratory system conditions. “We focused on enhancing data collection for exact information related to people’s respiratory and cardiovascular systems and teaching the AI how to make medical interpretations from this data. Another important consideration was personal privacy and security — no data is stored on the cloud; it is sent to the monitored person’s cellphone only,” said Ali Ghara, the lead Ph. D. student on the project. The research team is building on this work to expand the radar technology’s capabilities to monitor all vehicle occupants’ overall health and well-being, run diagnostics and generate quality medical reports that flag any issues that need attention, as well as assist with emergency communication in the event of an accident. 12. What can we learn about the radar technology? A. It provides more precise health data than wearables. B. It creates medical pictures to reveal healthy secrets. C. It sends the health report to the driver’s phone for review. D. It combines with vehicle technology to assess the driver’s health. 13. What can be inferred from Ali Ghara’s words in paragraph 5? A. The AI needs training to collect health data. B. AI’s interpretation of medical data is accurate. C. Cellphones monitor personal privacy and security. D. The team is improving data collection and analysis. 14. What does the follow-up study aim to do? A. Ensure the privacy of medical reports. B. Warn the drivers of potential accidents. C. Enhance health monitoring for all passengers. D. Apply the radar technology across vehicles. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Ph. D. Students Build USS Enterprise on Wheels B. Drivers Beware: Radar Spying on Your Heartbeats C. Healthy Driving: Radar Monitors Health in Vehicles D. Radars May Know Your Conditions Before You Do 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了加拿大滑铁卢大学的研究团队利用雷达技术将车辆转变为移动医疗中心，监测驾驶者的健康状况，提供个性化的医疗报告和紧急通信。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Inspired by the medical bay of the USS Enterprise from Star Trek (星际迷航 ), a research team from the University of Waterloo uses radar technology to monitor people’s health while at the wheel, turning an ordinary car or truck into a mobile medical center.(受《星际迷航》中企业号航空母舰医疗舱的启发，滑铁卢大学的一个研究小组使用雷达技术在驾驶时监测人们的健康状况，将一辆普通汽车或卡车变成了一个移动医疗中心)”以及第二段的“Dr. George Shaker, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, is working with a team of graduate students to combine radar with evolving vehicle technology to make health checks easier.(滑铁卢大学电气与计算机工程系教授George Shaker博士正在与一组研究生合作，将雷达与不断发展的车辆技术相结合，使健康检查更容易) ” 可知，雷达技术结合车辆技术，来评估驾驶员的健康状况。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段的Ali Ghara说的话“We focused on enhancing data collection for exact information related to people’s respiratory and cardiovascular systems and teaching the AI how to make medical interpretations from this data.(我们专注于加强与人们呼吸和心血管系统相关的确切信息的数据收集，并教人工智能如何根据这些数据进行医学解释)”可知，研究团队正在加强雷达的数据收集能力和教AI 对医学数据进行解释。由此可推知，团队正在改善数据收集和分析的能力。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“The research team is building on this work to expand the radar technology’s capabilities to monitor all vehicle occupants’ overall health and well-being, run diagnostics and generate quality medical reports that flag any issues that need attention, as well as assist with emergency communication in the event of an accident.(研究团队正在这项工作的基础上扩展雷达技术的能力，以监测所有车辆乘客的整体健康和福祉，运行诊断程序，生成高质量的医疗报告，标记任何需要注意的问题，并在发生事故时协助进行紧急通信)”可知，团队将增强对所有乘客的健康监测。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Inspired by the medical bay of the USS Enterprise from Star Trek (星际迷航 ), a research team from the University of Waterloo uses radar technology to monitor people’s health while at the wheel, turning an ordinary car or truck into a mobile medical center.(受《星际迷航》中企业号航空母舰医疗舱的启发，滑铁卢大学的一个研究小组使用雷达技术在驾驶时监测人们的健康状况，将一辆普通汽车或卡车变成了一个移动医疗中心)”以及全文可知，本文介绍了研究团队利用雷达技术将车辆转变为移动医疗中心，监测驾驶者的健康状况。因此“健康驾驶：雷达在车辆中监测健康”适合作本文的标题。故选C。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It is the beginning of a new school year, but for many, it may be their last.

You can’t get in without the money.” Jeffrey, the bus driver, told a little girl who wanted to get on the bus but only had a few pennies. She must have been around seven years old, and he wasn’t in the mood to deal with unaccompanied children that day. “Please, sir. I want to visit my grandmother,” the little girl begged. “Then go ask your parents for the money and come back next time,” Jeffrey replied and gestured with his hand for the girl to get out. She finally left the bus with her shoulders lowered. Jeffrey saw her sit down at the bus stop and drove off. He finished his route and went home for the lunch, greeting his wife, Greta, and sitting down on the couch to rest. When he browsed his Facebook posts, an image caught his attention. A picture was shared of the little girl he had just turned away a few hours earlier. The word “Missing” was written on top of the image. He learned that the girl had disappeared a day ago, and her parents were desperately trying to find her. “Dear! What have I done?” he asked himself, standing up and going to the front door. When Greta asked where he was going, Jeffrey said, “Greta! Quick! Call 911 and this number,” showing her the picture of the girl. “I saw this girl at a bus stop earlier, and I turned her away because she didn’t have enough money. I’m going to find her, but please make those calls.” Having told her where the bus stop was, he went out. Jeffrey rushed to his car, speeding to the bus stop. Hopefully, the girl was smart enough to stay in one place. He couldn’t believe how careless he had been earlier. She was a little girl all alone. As he drove to the bus stop, Jeffrey vowed to be more careful in the future, especially when it came to children. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Finally, Jeffrey saw a tiny figure sitting on the bench at the spot. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A few minutes later, the police and another car approached. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Finally, he saw a tiny figure sitting on the bench at the spot. Jeffery felt relieved and delighted to see the girl staying safe and sound. Trying to calm himself, Jeffery decided to talk to her gently. He inquired about her name and why she had left home. “I was going to Grandma’s house. My mom wouldn’t let me go.” Sarah replied, swinging one of her feet and looking at the concrete floor. “Your parents are searching for you, and they’ll be here soon,” he assured her, and the little girl gave him a small smile. A few minutes later, the police and another car approached them. A woman got out of the vehicle and rushed toward Sarah. The little girl got up and ran to her, yelling, “Mommy!” The police officers approached Jeffrey and he told them the entire story and how he regretted not letting her on the bus, so he came to find her. Sarah’s parents thanked him for what he had done. From then on, Jeffrey helped anyone short on cash who got on his bus, and he always watched out for the kids that were alone because they needed someone like him to do the right job. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了公交车司机Jeffrey一开始拒绝让没有钱的小女孩上车，后来他在Facebook上看到女孩失踪的消息，意识到自己的错误并努力将她找回的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“最后，他看见一个小小的身影坐在原地的长凳上。”可知，第一段可描写Jeffrey抵达公交站并发现小女孩仍然坐在那里的情形以及他对自己行为的反思。 ②由第二段首句内容“几分钟后，警察和另一辆车靠近了他们。”可知，第二段可描写小女孩与她的父母团聚的感人瞬间，以及他们对Jeffrey的感谢及Jeffrey的变化。 2.续写线索：车站看到小姑娘——感到欣慰——安慰小姑娘——女孩与父母团聚——女孩父母感谢——Jeffrey的变化。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：inquire/question/query ②大喊：yell/shout/scream ③靠近；接近：approach/draw near/come near to 情绪类 ①高兴的：delighted/happy/pleased ②温柔地：gently/lightly/softly ③向……保证；确保：assure/guarantee/ensure 【点睛】【高分句型1】Sarah replied, swinging one of her feet and looking at the concrete floor.(运用了现在分词短语作状语) 【高分句型2】 From then on, Jeffrey helped anyone short on cash who got on his bus, and he always watched out for the kids that were alone because they needed someone like him to do the right job.(运用了who和that引导的定语从句和because引导的原因状语从句) 1-5 ABACC 6-10 BAABA 11-15 BBCCB 16-20 CBACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 连城一中2024-2025学年高三年级月考1英语试卷 满分150分 考试时间120分钟 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7. 5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A，B.C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.What are the speakers talking about？ A.A party.

The floating (流动的) homes of Lake Titicaca More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros’ mainland villages. To resist this threat, the Uros began to build the floating islands with the water- resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the Uros community. The perfect desert town: Ghadames Ghadames is an impressive example of environmental planning. Thick walls delay the sun’s heat entering a building during the day, and radiate that heat back to the sky at night. By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means. Spain’s fairy-tale houses Known as pallozas, the round houses are built from just a handful of materials: stone, wood and dry grass. Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient. The Himalayas’ ancient design The structures in Himachal Pradesh were built by an ancient technique known as Kath kuni. Wood and stones create a fantastic balance. The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake. 1. Which structure was built for defending residents against attackers? A. The Kath kuni structure. B. The floating structure. C. The Ghadames structure. D. The palloza’s structure. 2. What do the houses in Ghadames and pallozas have in common? A. They are sustainable. B. They maximize internal heat. C. They are built for luxury living. D. They’re made of special materials. 3. What makes Kath kuni structures earthquake-resistant? A. The stone frames. B. The narrow openings. C. The flexible wood. D. An interlocking system. B Like almost every set of new parents, Bryan and Elizabeth Shaw started snapping pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born. When he was about three months old, Elizabeth noticed something odd. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red dot in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something. When Elizabeth took Noah to an eye doctor, Noah was diagnosed with retinal (视网膜) cancer with the white reflection as a sign. He endured months of treatment, but it was too late. Noah’s cancer is treatable if caught early. Bryan Shaw wondered whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently. “By the time he was four months old, it was showing up in 25percent of the pictures taken of him per month,” Bryan recalled. Later, Bryan was determined to put his hard-won insights to good use. He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo of Noah. He also collected photos and compiled the data from eight other children with the same cancer. Armed with that data, he began to work with colleagues to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope (眼底镜). Called White Eye Detector, it is now available for free on Google Play and in Apple’s Apple Store. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.” 4. Why did Bryan and Elizabeth take pictures of Noah? A. To record his growth. B. To celebrate his birth. C. To test their digital camera. D. To collect evidence of eye diseases. 5. Which word can best describe Bryan’s feelings in paragraph 3? A. Terrified. B. Regretful. C. Lonely. D. Exhausted. 6. What can the app do to help? A. It serves as a detector. B It presents expert advice. C. It saves photos on users’ phones. D. It provides a worldwide database. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. How a boy lost his eye. B. How a new app works. C. How a father saved his son. D. How an app came into being. C A handshake seems to be a normal gesture. In fact, in the 9th century BC, an ancient site during the ruling of Shalmaneser Ⅲ clearly shows two figures holding hands. Centuries later, Shakespeare once wrote of two characters who shook hands and swore to be brothers in the book As You Like Ii. Shaking hands seems lo be an ancient custom whose roots have disappeared in the sands of time. Historians who have studied ancient etiquette (礼仪) books note that the modern handshake did not appear until the middle of the 19th century, when it was considered a slightly inappropriate gesture that could only be used between friends. But what if Shakespeare had written about handshaking hundreds of years earlier? According lo author Torbjdm Lundmark in his Tales of Hi and Bye: Greeting and Parting Rituals Around the World the problem comes in different definitions of the handshake. The early handshakes mentioned above were part of making deals or peace. Shakespeare was similarly referencing settlement of a conflict. The modern handshake as a form of greeting is harder lo trace. As a Dutch sociologist Herman Roodenburg—the chief authority for the history of handshaking—wrote in a chapter of an anthology called A Cultural History of Gesture, “More than in any other field, that of the study of gesture is one in which the historian has to make the most of only a few clues”. As the centuries progressed, handshaking was replaced by more hierarchical (等级的) ways of greeting—like bowing. Handshaking survived in a few remote places, like in Dutch towns where some would use the gesture to make peace after disagreements. Around the same time, those who valued equality also made use of handshaking. Then, as the Continent’s hierarchy was weakened, handshaking became a common practice among people of the same rank, as it is today. 8. Why does the author mention Shakespeare in the first two paragraphs? A. To prove that the history of handshaking is hard to find. B. To illustrate that handshaking is a very old custom. C. To show readers that handshaking is common in fiction. D. To explain the value of handshaking in communication. 9. What can we learn about handshaking from the passage? A. The origin of handshaking as a form of greeting is easy lo trace. B. Citizens usually shake hands to show friendliness in Holland. C. It was used only between friends and to reach an agreement. D. It is a common practice between people of different social positions. 10. Which of the following is similar in meaning to “anthology” in Para. 4? A. The science of mental ability. B. A collection of selected literary passages. C. A daily written record of experiences. D. All the living things of a particular region. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage? A. The handshake has disappeared in some remote parts of the Netherlands. B. Handshaking has different meanings in different European countries. C. Handshakes are now common between people of different positions. D. Most Europeans prefer to shake hands owing to the weakening effect of rank. D Inspired by the medical bay of the USS Enterprise from Star Trek (星际迷航), a research team from the University of Waterloo uses radar technology to monitor people’s health while at the wheel, turning an ordinary car or truck into a mobile medical center. Dr. George Shaker, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, is working with a team of graduate students to combine radar with evolving vehicle technology to make health checks easier. The idea is to use the time people spend in their cars to gather data on their health for accurate analysis and preventative treatment — without the need for any type of wearable. The radar, smaller than a USB thumb drive, is placed into the vehicle cabin and sends out signals that detect human vibrations (颤动), which are then sent back to the radar. The built-in AI system collects and analyzes the data to build a medical picture and identify any potential conditions. At the end of the driver’s journey, the system sends the report directly to their cell phone for review. For Shaker and his team, the challenge was evolving the tech to identify changes in breathing patterns or heart rhythms that signify potential health issues related to cardiovascular conditions as well as respiratory system conditions. “We focused on enhancing data collection for exact information related to people’s respiratory and cardiovascular systems and teaching the AI how to make medical interpretations from this data. Another important consideration was personal privacy and security — no data is stored on the cloud; it is sent to the monitored person’s cellphone only,” said Ali Ghara, the lead Ph. D. student on the project. The research team is building on this work to expand the radar technology’s capabilities to monitor all vehicle occupants’ overall health and well-being run diagnostics and generate quality medical reports that flag any issues that need attention, as well as assist with emergency communication in the event of an accident. 12. What can we learn about the radar technology? A. It provides more precise health data than wearables. B. It creates medical pictures to reveal healthy secrets.

You can’t get in without the money.” Jeffrey, the bus driver, told a little girl who wanted to get on the bus but only had a few pennies. She must have been around seven years old, and he wasn’t in the mood to deal with unaccompanied children that day. “Please, sir. I want to visit my grandmother,” the little girl begged. “Then go ask your parents for the money and come back next time,” Jeffrey replied and gestured with his hand for the girl to get out. She finally left the bus with her shoulders lowered. Jeffrey saw her sit down at the bus stop and drove off. He finished his route and went home for the lunch, greeting his wife, Greta, and sitting down on the couch to rest. When he browsed his Facebook posts, an image caught his attention. A picture was shared of the little girl he had just turned away a few hours earlier. The word “Missing” was written on top of the image. He learned that the girl had disappeared a day ago, and her parents were desperately trying to find her. “Dear! What have I done?” he asked himself, standing up and going to the front door. When Greta asked where he was going, Jeffrey said, “Greta! Quick! Call 911 and this number,” showing her the picture of the girl. “I saw this girl at a bus stop earlier, and I turned her away because she didn’t have enough money. I’m going to find her, but please make those calls.” Having told her where the bus stop was, he went out. Jeffrey rushed to his car, speeding to the bus stop. Hopefully, the girl was smart enough to stay in one place. He couldn’t believe how careless he had been earlier. She was a little girl all alone. As he drove to the bus stop, Jeffrey vowed to be more careful in the future, especially when it came to children. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Finally Jeffrey saw a tiny figure sitting on the bench at the spot. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A few minutes later, the police and another car approached. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 ABACC 6-10 BAABA 11-15 BBCCB 16-20 CBACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
