Here’s what you’ll find in some of its national parks. Horton Plains National Park Drive time from Colombo: Five hours In the central highlands, Horton Plains is located in the highest plateau (高原) of Sri Lanka. The cloud forests here are rich in plants and animals that have got used to the cooler climates. Birds such as the whistling thrush and Sri Lanka n bush warbler are best seen here. Minneriya National Park Drive time from Colombo: Five-and-a-half hours Thick woods surround lakes and contain many animals, but animal-viewing is generally poor, except for the wonderful seasonal gathering of elephants. The gathering takes place in Minneriya during September and October. Yala National Park Drive time from Colombo: Six hours Yala is in the southeast of Sri Lanka. Its top view is the Sri Lankan leopard (豹). In June and July, slot h bears are often seen. The beautiful areas also have a lot of birds. Enthusiastic bird watchers should also visit Bundala National Park (an hour away) or the Palatupana Salt Pans (ten minutes away). Visitors can also go surfing in Arugam Bay (three hours away). Wilpattu National Park Drive time from Colombo: Four hours Wilpattu, Sri Lanka’s largest park, is in the dry lowlands of the country’s northwest and has some small lakes. The park reopened in 2003 after 15 years of closure. Wilpattu was famous for its leopards, and big-cat lovers are hoping for this return. The park’s animals are similar to Yala, but visitors also have a chance of seeing barking deer. 1. How long does it take to drive from Colombo to see seasonal elephants? A. 4 hours. B. 5 hours. C. 5.5 hours. D. 6 hours. 2. Which of the following is closest to Yala National Park? A. Colombo. B. Arugam Bay. C. Bundala National Park. D. The Palatupana Salt Pans. 3. What do we know about Wilpattu National Park? A. It was known for its leopards. B. It is made up of Sri Lanka’s largest lake. C. It lies on the highest plateau in Sri Lanka. D. It’ll welcome barking deer as its new visitors. B Several years ago, I read about William Helmreich walking every street in New York City. I thought, “I can do that for Montreal.” With little hesitation, I devoted the next five years of my life to the project. I never walked through any shabby (破旧的) neighborhoods. From one end of my map to the other, all houses were well looked after. People went to great lengths to decorate their homes, and with this came one of the great pleasures of my walks: the different measures they took to decorate their frontage (正面). I discovered that pigs are a popular decorative element throughout the city. The type that is dressed up as humans, I mean. I saw pigs wearing dresses, shirts, and even swimming costumes. Every outing has its wonders. Never assume a neighborhood has little of interest to offer. You must be trained to seek out strange things. Otherwise, you might never spot the clothes on the sidewalks. If I stopped to collect everything I saw lying around abandoned, I could fit out a small country. Where did they come from? How did people lose their shoes while walking out ? A puzzle. As my project progressed, I felt like I owned the city. I could get off at any subway station and my feet remembered the route to the best shops. There was enough fun in my walks that I’d have a few laughs and feel more light-hearted than when I left. Anyone can get in on this walking game. I admit with some shame. I used to huddle (蜷缩) in my part of town, feeling isolated, but walking its streets has truly opened my eyes to Montreal’s full menu. Now I’m quite satisfied with what I obtain. So just head to a neighborhood to nose around. I can assure you that you’ll feel like a pioneer with the discoveries you bring back. 4. Why did the author decide to walk the streets of Montreal? A. She wanted to collect strange things. B. She wanted to do some research. C. She had to conduct a project. D. She drew inspiration from an article. 5. What do we know about the neighborhoods in Montreal? A. The shabby houses are abandoned. B. People enjoy dressing up as pigs. C. People enjoy decorating their houses. D. All the houses are equal in length. 6. What amazed the author during her trips? A. The houses in good condition. B. The clothes left on sidewalks. C. The routes of subway stations. D. The animals walking on the streets. 7. How did the author feel on her walk? A. Cheerful and content. B. Excited and energetic. C. Relieved and grateful. D. Puzzled and upset. C It was a quiet early afternoon in the library, and we librarians were enjoying a chat at the library desk. Suddenly, a regular reader, who had been reading a magazine, marched up to us, gave us an annoyed “Shush (嘘)!” and went back to her seat. Shocked into silence, we tried not to laugh. How strange for a group of librarians to be shushed by a reader! Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Well, it seems hard to explain. If you’re a baby boomer (婴儿潮出生的人) like me, you probably remember libraries as places of adults’ silent reading. These days, however, libraries are more like busy community centers, where being noisy to some degree is the new normal, especially when kids are taking part. I am a loud librarian. My voice is naturally on the louder side. The hundreds of programs I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, movement exercises and cheerful readings of books with crowds of children and their caregivers. No shushing allowed! Growing knowledge about the importance of kids and teens learning through hands-on experiences has since caused a sea change in how public libraries connect with young readers. These types of programs like board games, poetry reading and story times certainly aren’t designed to be silent. But it’s a balancing act. Not all readers—or librarians—like the idea of a noisy library. It’s clear to me now that on the day my colleagues and I were shushed by a reader we should have been using our “library voices” as we talked. Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return to the days when they were places of silence. There’s just too much fun and learning happening. I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhood service educator at the Brooklyn Public Library, who told me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad. A library where conversations are happening and tables are full is a very good thing!” 8. How did the author think of the shush from a reader? A. Unexpectedly funny. B. Really annoying. C. Quite necessary. D. Very heartwarming. 9. What can be inferred about today’s libraries? A. They serve kids only. B. They become quieter. C. They are less popular. D. They have different functions. 10. Why does the author quote Rachel Payne? A. To show different voices. B. To express the author’s idea. C. To make the end interesting. D. To promote a new reading method. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Act in the Library B. It’s OK for a Library to Be Noisy C. Why to Keep Silent in the Library D. It’s Necessary for Librarians to Change D In the coming decade, space agencies and private space companies like SpaceX are planning to build a base on the Moon and Mars. While scientists are already building rockets for the journey, for long-term human settlements on them, astronauts will need fuel to carry out daily tasks. Many have suggested hydrogen (氢). But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2, it may be a feasible solution. For now the team of scientists at the University of Oxford is focusing on making jet fuel for the aviation (航空) industry. As the aviation industry releases over 900 million tons of CO2 every year, to battle climate change, it is necessary to turn the tide. So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet. The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new. Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的). The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48 percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic. Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation.” 12. Which word can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1? A. Unique. B. Practical. C. Time-tested. D. Quick. 13. What problem does the aviation industry face? A. It is suffering from a serious fuel shortage. B. The traditional jet fuel is much too expensive. C. Climate change partly disturbs long-distance flights. D. Its alternative energy resources are not powerful enough. 14. What do we know about the Oxford scientists’ method of fuel-making? A. It is green and cost-saving. B. It is complex and time-consuming. C. It runs tests in natural environment. D. It starts with immediate chemical reaction. 15. What’s the purpose of the author? A. To attract people to explore the space. B. To inform us of a breakthrough in fuel research. C. To warn us the dangers of climate change. D. To encourage us to work in the aviation industry. 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。（如果所用的答题卡没有E、F、G选项，则选E涂A、B，选F涂A、C，选G涂A、D。） How to handle changes in your friendship group?

It’s a Hebrew word that means “to do a good deed”. But according to my grandmother, it also had another meaning. This was the one she was always pointing out to me because she’d noticed how shy I was about letting people do things for me. “Linda, it’s a blessing to do a mitzvah for someone else, but sometimes it’s a blessing to let another person do something for you.” I never really understood what she meant until recently. It was three months ago, and I'd just moved into an apartment for college in Brooklyn, New York, Several of my friends had offered to help me settle in after the moving men left, but I'd said I could manage. Letting them help did not fit my image of myself as a capable and independent woman of 21. As December arrived, getting to school became more difficult. One day, snowflakes had been falling past my window for several hours when it came time to leave for class. I put on two sweaters, a coat, a wool hat and boots making for the bus stop. In this December storm it was a hard journey. As I tied around my neck the blue scarf that Grandma had knitted(编织) for me, I could almost hear her voice: “Why don't you see if you can find a lift?” A thousand reasons came into my mind: I don't know my neighbours; I feel funny asking for favours. Pride(自尊心) would not let me ask even though I came across three neighbours at the door of the apartment building. One of them was the woman living upstairs, and in her hand there was an obvious car key. Result? An hour of waiting in the bitter cold before the bus finally arrived, followed by another half-hou journey. When I sneaked into the classroom, the class was almost over. If only I had taken the chance and asked for help! It would have been a 10-minute ride by car, Grandma would be shaking her head at my stubbornness(固执). 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: On the day of my final exam, I again walked to the bus stop through heavy snow. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As I pushed open the door of my apartment building, I found myself face to face with the woman from upstairs. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 祥云祥华中学2024-2025学年上学期二调考试 高二英语测试卷 本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）。共4页。考试结束，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第Ⅰ卷 注意事项： 1. 答第Ⅰ卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。不能答在本试卷上，否则无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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?

I thought, “I can do that for Montreal.” With little hesitation, I devoted the next five years of my life to the project. I never walked through any shabby (破旧的) neighborhoods. From one end of my map to the other, all houses were well looked after. People went to great lengths to decorate their homes, and with this came one of the great pleasures of my walks: the different measures they took to decorate their frontage (正面). I discovered that pigs are a popular decorative element throughout the city. The type that is dressed up as humans, I mean. I saw pigs wearing dresses, shirts, and even swimming costumes. Every outing has its wonders. Never assume a neighborhood has little of interest to offer. You must be trained to seek out strange things. Otherwise, you might never spot the clothes on the sidewalks. If I stopped to collect everything I saw lying around abandoned, I could fit out a small country. Where did they come from? How did people lose their shoes while walking out ? A puzzle. As my project progressed, I felt like I owned the city. I could get off at any subway station and my feet remembered the route to the best shops. There was enough fun in my walks that I’d have a few laughs and feel more light-hearted than when I left. Anyone can get in on this walking game. I admit with some shame. I used to huddle (蜷缩) in my part of town, feeling isolated, but walking its streets has truly opened my eyes to Montreal’s full menu. Now I’m quite satisfied with what I obtain. So just head to a neighborhood to nose around. I can assure you that you’ll feel like a pioneer with the discoveries you bring back. 4. Why did the author decide to walk the streets of Montreal? A. She wanted to collect strange things. B. She wanted to do some research. C. She had to conduct a project. D. She drew inspiration from an article. 5. What do we know about the neighborhoods in Montreal? A. The shabby houses are abandoned. B. People enjoy dressing up as pigs. C. People enjoy decorating their houses. D. All the houses are equal in length. 6. What amazed the author during her trips? A. The houses in good condition. B. The clothes left on sidewalks. C. The routes of subway stations. D. The animals walking on the streets. 7. How did the author feel on her walk? A. Cheerful and content. B. Excited and energetic. C. Relieved and grateful. D. Puzzled and upset. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者受到启发，热衷于步行，走遍了所住城市每条街道，也给作者带来了更多的发现。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Several years ago, I read about William Helmreich walking every street in New York City. I thought,  “I can do that for Montreal.”(几年前，我读到William Helmreich走在纽约的每条街上。我想，“我可以为蒙特利尔做到这一点。”)”可推断，作者决定走在蒙特利尔的街道上，是从文章中得到了启发。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“People went to great lengths to decorate their homes, and with this came one of the great pleasures of my walks: the different measures they took to decorate their frontage(正面). (人们费尽心思来装饰他们的家园，而这成了我散步时的一大乐趣：他们采用的不同方式来装饰房屋的正面)”可知，在蒙特利尔，人们喜欢装饰他们的房子。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“You must be trained to seek out strange things. Otherwise, you might never spot the clothes on the sidewalks. If I stopped to collect everything I saw lying around abandoned, I could fit out a small country. Where did they come from? How did people lose their shoes while out walking? A puzzle. (你必须学会寻找奇特的事物。否则，你可能永远不会注意到人行道上的衣物。如果我停下脚步收集所有看到的被遗弃的物品，我可以装备起一个小国家。这些东西是从哪儿来的？人们是怎么在外出散步时丢失他们的鞋子的？真是个谜)”可知，在旅行中，被丢弃在人行道上的衣服让作者感到惊讶。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“There was enough fun in my walks that I’d have a few laughs and feel more light-hearted than when I left. (在我散步中有足够的乐趣，让我能开怀大笑，感觉比出门时更加轻松愉快)”和最后一段“I admit with some shame. I used to huddle (蜷缩) in my part of town, feeling isolated, but walking its streets has truly opened my eyes to Montreal’s full menu. Now I’m quite satisfied with what I obtain.(我有些羞愧地承认，我过去常常蜷缩在自己镇上的那一片区域，感到很孤立，但行走在这座城市的街道上真正让我领略到了蒙特利尔的全貌。现在，我对自己的收获相当满意)”可推断，作者在散步时感到很高兴和满足。故选A。 C It was a quiet early afternoon in the library, and we librarians were enjoying a chat at the library desk. Suddenly, a regular reader, who had been reading a magazine, marched up to us, gave us an annoyed “Shush (嘘)!” and went back to her seat. Shocked into silence, we tried not to laugh. How strange for a group of librarians to be shushed by a reader! Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Well, it seems hard to explain. If you’re a baby boomer (婴儿潮出生的人) like me, you probably remember libraries as places of adults’ silent reading. These days, however, libraries are more like busy community centers, where being noisy to some degree is the new normal, especially when kids are taking part. I am a loud librarian. My voice is naturally on the louder side. The hundreds of programs I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, movement exercises and cheerful readings of books with crowds of children and their caregivers. No shushing allowed! Growing knowledge about the importance of kids and teens learning through hands-on experiences has since caused a sea change in how public libraries connect with young readers. These types of programs like board games, poetry reading and story times certainly aren’t designed to be silent. But it’s a balancing act. Not all readers—or librarians—like the idea of a noisy library. It’s clear to me now that on the day my colleagues and I were shushed by a reader, we should have been using our “library voices” as we talked. Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return to the days when they were places of silence. There’s just too much fun and learning happening. I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhood service educator at the Brooklyn Public Library, who told me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad. A library where conversations are happening and tables are full is a very good thing!” 8. How did the author think of the shush from a reader? A. Unexpectedly funny. B. Really annoying. C. Quite necessary. D. Very heartwarming. 9. What can be inferred about today’s libraries? A. They serve kids only. B. They become quieter. C. They are less popular. D. They have different functions. 10. Why does the author quote Rachel Payne? A. To show different voices. B. To express the author’s idea. C. To make the end interesting. D. To promote a new reading method. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Act in the Library B. It’s OK for a Library to Be Noisy C. Why to Keep Silent in the Library D. It’s Necessary for Librarians to Change 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。本文通过描述在图书馆内发生的一个有趣的事件，探讨了现代图书馆变得喧闹的原因和重要性。作者认为，现代图书馆已经转变成了繁忙的社区中心，在与年轻读者连接时，噪音是新的常态。尽管如此，作者也指出应该保持平衡，考虑到不同读者的喜好。最后，作者赞同一个朋友的观点，认为在图书馆里有交流和活跃的氛围是件好事。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Shocked into silence, we tried not to laugh. How strange for a group of librarians to be shushed by a reader! Shouldn’t it be the other way around?(我们震惊得哑口无言，努力忍住不笑。一群图书管理员被一个读者嘘了下来，这有多奇怪，这是多么奇怪啊!难道不应该反过来吗?)”可知，作者认为读者的嘘声出乎意料地有趣。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“These days, however, libraries are more like busy community centers, where being noisy to some degree is the new normal, especially when kids are taking part.(然而，如今的图书馆更像是繁忙的社区中心，在某种程度上，嘈杂是一种新常态，尤其是当孩子们参与其中的时候)”以及第四段“I am a loud librarian. My voice is naturally on the louder side. The hundreds of programs I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, movement exercises and cheerful readings of books with crowds of children and their caregivers.(我是一个吵闹的图书管理员。我的声音天生就比较大。作为一名儿童图书管理员，我主持了数百个项目，其中充满了唱歌、跳舞、运动练习，以及与一群孩子和他们的看护人一起愉快地读书)”可推知，今天的图书馆，作者主持了数百个项目，所以是有不同的功能。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There’s just too much fun and learning happening. I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhood service educator at the Brooklyn Public Library, who told me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad. A library where conversations are happening and tables are full is a very good thing!”(有太多的乐趣和学习发生了。我由衷地同意我的朋友雷切尔·佩恩(Rachel Payne)的观点，她是布鲁克林公共图书馆(Brooklyn Public Library)的一名幼儿服务教育家，她告诉我:“当我参观图书馆时，它很安静，我总是感到有点悲伤。在图书馆里，人们可以交谈，桌子旁坐满了人，这是一件非常好的事情!”)”可知，作者引用蕾切尔·佩恩的话是为了表达自己的观点，认为在图书馆里有交流和活跃的氛围是件好事。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。纵观全文可知，本文通过描述在图书馆内发生的一个有趣的事件，探讨了现代图书馆变得喧闹的原因和重要性，以及最后一段中“There’s just too much fun and learning happening. I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhood service educator at the Brooklyn Public Library, who told me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit sad. A library where conversations are happening and tables are full is a very good thing!”(有太多的乐趣和学习发生了。我由衷地同意我的朋友雷切尔·佩恩(Rachel Payne)的观点，她是布鲁克林公共图书馆(Brooklyn Public Library)的一名幼儿服务教育家，她告诉我:“当我参观图书馆时，它很安静，我总是感到有点悲伤。在图书馆里，人们可以交谈，桌子上坐满了人，这是一件非常好的事情!”)”可知，作者认为在图书馆里有交流和活跃的氛围是件好事，所以B项“It’s OK for a Library to Be Noisy(图书馆有噪音是可以接受的)”是本文最好的标题。故选B项。 D In the coming decade, space agencies and private space companies like SpaceX are planning to build a base on the Moon and Mars. While scientists are already building rockets for the journey, for long-term human settlements on them, astronauts will need fuel to carry out daily tasks. Many have suggested hydrogen (氢). But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2, it may be a feasible solution. For now the team of scientists at the University of Oxford is focusing on making jet fuel for the aviation (航空) industry. As the aviation industry releases over 900 million tons of CO2 every year, to battle climate change, it is necessary to turn the tide. So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet. The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new. Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的). The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48 percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic. Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation.” 12. Which word can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1? A. Unique. B. Practical. C. Time-tested. D. Quick. 13. What problem does the aviation industry face? A. It is suffering from a serious fuel shortage. B. The traditional jet fuel is much too expensive. C. Climate change partly disturbs long-distance flights. D. Its alternative energy resources are not powerful enough. 14. What do we know about the Oxford scientists’ method of fuel-making? A. It is green and cost-saving. B. It is complex and time-consuming. C. It runs tests in natural environment. D. It starts with immediate chemical reaction. 15. What’s the purpose of the author? A. To attract people to explore the space. B. To inform us of a breakthrough in fuel research. C. To warn us the dangers of climate change. D. To encourage us to work in the aviation industry. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一组科学家正在致力于把大气中的CO₂转化为喷气燃料。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2(但一组科学家正在研究将大气中的二氧化碳转化为喷气燃料。因为火星富含二氧化碳，而月球表面的二氧化碳浓度很高)”可知，科学家想把CO₂转化为喷气燃料，且火星和月球表面CO₂充足，所以这一想法很可行。所以划线单词feasible意为“切实可行的”，和B选项“Practical”意思相近。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet.(到目前为止，航空科学家已经尝试使用电力等其他能源来飞行。但这种飞行只限于短途飞行。对于长途飞行来说，目前还没有其他选择。)”可知，航空业面临的问题是它的替代能源还不够强大。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的).(以前，其他类似的方法必须依靠昂贵的催化剂，如钴来加速化学反应。但牛津大学的科学家们建议，加入一种廉价的铁基催化剂和氢，将二氧化碳转化为液体燃料。由于该过程不需要使用化石燃料，它将使该行业实现碳中和。)”可知，把CO₂转化为液体燃料无需昂贵的催化剂，也能达到碳中和，可得出牛津大学科学家的燃料制造方法是环保和节省成本的。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段中的“But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel.(但一组科学家正在研究将大气中的二氧化碳转化为喷气燃料。)”和下文对此研究内容与过程的介绍可知，文章介绍了一组科学家正在致力于把大气中的CO₂转化为喷气燃料，因此本文的目的是告诉我们燃料研究的突破，故选B。 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。（如果所用的答题卡没有E、F、G选项，则选E涂A、B，选F涂A、C，选G涂A、D。） How to handle changes in your friendship group?

It’s a Hebrew word that means “to do a good deed”. But according to my grandmother, it also had another meaning. This was the one she was always pointing out to me because she’d noticed how shy I was about letting people do things for me. “Linda, it’s a blessing to do a mitzvah for someone else, but sometimes it’s a blessing to let another person do something for you.” I never really understood what she meant until recently. It was three months ago, and I'd just moved into an apartment for college in Brooklyn, New York, Several of my friends had offered to help me settle in after the moving men left, but I'd said I could manage. Letting them help did not fit my image of myself as a capable and independent woman of 21. As December arrived, getting to school became more difficult. One day, snowflakes had been falling past my window for several hours when it came time to leave for class. I put on two sweaters, a coat, a wool hat and boots making for the bus stop. In this December storm it was a hard journey. As I tied around my neck the blue scarf that Grandma had knitted(编织) for me, I could almost hear her voice: “Why don't you see if you can find a lift?” A thousand reasons came into my mind: I don't know my neighbours; I feel funny asking for favours. Pride(自尊心) would not let me ask even though I came across three neighbours at the door of the apartment building. One of them was the woman living upstairs, and in her hand there was an obvious car key. Result? An hour of waiting in the bitter cold before the bus finally arrived, followed by another half-hou journey. When I sneaked into the classroom, the class was almost over. If only I had taken the chance and asked for help! It would have been a 10-minute ride by car, Grandma would be shaking her head at my stubbornness(固执). 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: On the day of my final exam, I again walked to the bus stop through heavy snow. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As I pushed open the door of my apartment building, I found myself face to face with the woman from upstairs. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1： On the day of my final exam, I again walked to the bus stop through heavy snow. For an hour, I stretched my neck, praying desperately that a bus would come. Then I gave up. The wind at my back pushed me toward home, and I prayed, “how can I get to school? What should I do?” As I pulled Grandma’s scarf more tightly around my neck, again I seemed to hear that whisper: Ask someone for a lift! It could be a mitzvah. That idea had never really made sense to me. And even if I wanted to ask someone for a good deed, which I did not, there wasn’t a soul on the street. Paragraph 2： As I pushed open the door of my apartment building, I found myself face to face with the woman from upstairs. She was going out with a set of keys in her hand. In that split second, desperation overcame pride. I blurted, “Could you possibly give me a lift?” I hurriedly explained, “I’ve been waiting for the bus for ages, and I don’t want to miss my final exam.” Her expression softened with understanding, “Of course, I’ll give you a lift.” Heaving a sigh of relief, I couldn’t help but marvel at how a simple act of asking for help had changed everything. It was at that moment that I finally understood what “Mitzvah” really meant. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了从小时候起作者的祖母就经常对作者说成人礼这个词，在希伯来语中它的意思是“做一件好事”。但祖母说，它还有另一层意思就是让别人为自己做点什么也是一种祝福，因为她注意到作者很害羞，不愿意让别人帮自己做事，直到最近因为在暴风雪天气中因为不愿意开口求人搭便车导致自己上课迟到时作者才真正明白了奶奶话的意思。又一个暴风雪的天气，作者赶着去参加期末考，一切看似和原来一样但实际已经有了改变。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“期末考试那天，我又冒着大雪走到公共汽车站。”可知，第一段可描写作者像往常一样等公交车，结果等了好长时间车也没有来，这时想到奶奶让自己找人帮忙的话，但那是不可能的，因为路上根本没有人，所以作者决定回家。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我推开公寓大楼的门时，我发现自己与楼上的女人面对面。”可知，第二段可描写作者见到楼上女人那一刻时终于绝望战胜骄傲，开口向女人求助，以及求助成功以后自己的感受及对于“成人礼”含义的理解。 2.续写线索：车站等车——等车未果——决定回家——想到奶奶的话打算求助——无人可求——楼梯内偶遇楼上女士——勇于求助——求助成功——欣慰及感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 战胜：overcome/surmount 脱口而出：blurt/ejaculate 变软；软化：soften/tender/alleviate 情绪类 紧紧地：tightly/firmly 匆忙地：hurriedly/hastily 【点睛】【高分句型1】Heaving a sigh of relief, I couldn’t help but marvel at how a simple act of asking for help had changed everything.(运用了现在分词短语作状语和how引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】It was at that moment that I finally understood what “Mitzvah” really meant.(运用了强调句型) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
