U. S. News carefully considered everything to bring you the best inexpensive spring break destinations. Key West This small island in the Florida Keys is known for its odd residents and best snorkeling (浮潜) opportunities. While you’ll find plenty of spots for partying along Duval Street, you can also soak up some culture at the Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum. Plus, Key West offers several budget-friendly (经济实惠) vacation rentals, so you can save your cash for bars and boat tours. Panama City Beach Panama City Beach is a tried-and-true Florida spring break location that is sure to please the masses. Scope out a spot across the town’s 27 miles of white sand beaches to sunbathe, play volleyball or scan the horizon for bottlenose dolphins. Hotel prices are reasonable if you book your accommodations in advance. Just note: in this town alcohol consumption is not allowed on the beach during March, so you’ll have to enjoy your adult drinks elsewhere. South Padre Island With hotels offering nightly rates around $ 200 or less and DJs and celebrities holding court at nightclubs, South Padre Island, Texas, is a hot spring break destination for college students. This South Texas local is only about 30 miles north of the U. S. -Mexico border. meaning you’ll get to enjoy warm weather without having to leave the country. As an added bonus, the island offers a free public shuttle system, so budget-conscious travelers won’t have to worry about spending money on a rental car. 21. What can tourists do in Key West? A.

The hotel prices are low whenever you go. B. It is a perfect destination for everyone C. You can drink wine on the beach in March. D. You can see the bottlenose dolphins in person. 23.

D 22. D 23. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了三个春假期间便宜好玩的去处。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Key West部分中的“While you’ll find plenty of spots for partying along Duval Street, you can also soak up some culture at the Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum. (虽然你会在Duval Street上找到很多聚会的地方，但你也可以在海明威故居和博物馆里感受一些文化。)”可知，在Key West游客可以参观Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Panama City Beach部分中的“Scope out a spot across the town’s 27 miles of white sand beaches to sunbathe, play volleyball or scan the horizon for bottlenose dolphins. (在小镇27英里长的白色沙滩上找一个地方晒日光浴，打排球，或者在地平线上寻找宽吻海豚。)”可知，你可以亲眼看到宽吻海豚。故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Spring breakers don’t need to spend a fortune to enjoy life in the sunshine for a week. U. S. News carefully considered everything to bring you the best inexpensive spring break destinations. (春假不需要花一大笔钱去享受一周阳光下的生活。《美国新闻与世界报道》仔细考虑了一切，为你带来最便宜的春假目的地。)”、Key West部分中的“Plus, Key West offers several budget-friendly (经济实惠的) vacation rentals, so you can save your cash for bars and boat tours. (此外，基韦斯特还提供几种经济实惠的度假租赁服务，这样你就可以省下钱去酒吧和乘船游览了。)”、Panama City Beach部分中的“Hotel prices are reasonable if you book your accommodations in advance. (如果你提前预订，旅馆的价格是合理的。)”和最后一段中的“As an added bonus, the island offers a free public shuttle system, so budget-conscious travelers won’t have to worry about spending money on a rental car. (还有一个额外的好处，岛上提供免费的公共班车系统，所以预算紧张的游客不必担心要花钱租车。)”可知，这三个旅游目的地的共同之处在于它们都很经济实惠。故选B。 B A few months ago a friend gifted me a robot sweeper that’s programmed to move around a room and clean as it goes. When the box arrived, I was afraid the device would detect me and soak up (汲) data along with the dog hair and dust. But the instructions were easy, and I finally decided not to care. I powered up the sweeper, watched it leave its docking station to work, and quickly fell in love with my newly shiny floors. I kept shooting its working videos. “I think you’re giving more attention to it than to us,” joked my son. One day, I returned home and discovered that our front door had blown open and the robot rolled into the yard, trying to clean the flower beds. Even when its brushes were blocked with leaves, bugs and mud, its little wheels bravely kept turning. The robot acted properly as it was programmed to clean “dirty” things. In a kitchen, dirt can be garden debris (碎片) such as leaves and mud. In a garden, this kind of dirt does not need to be removed. The context is important. The problem for robots is that reading this context is difficult. This accident inspired me to think more about AI (artificial intelligence). As far as I am concerned, AI is simply well trained and reproduces what it has learned. And it is undeniable that robots are increasingly being given powerful intelligence. Some experts even predict that we will soon see not only AI-enabled robots designed to solve problems according to their instructions, but also those with the ability to judge how they should respond when they are in a different setting. Maybe this will happen in the near future. 24. What was the author’s concern about the robot sweeper at first? A. Its after-sales service. B. Its working efficiency. C. The privacy of her family. D. The readability of its instruction. 25. How did the author feel about the robot sweeper after using it? A. Enthusiastic. B. Regretful. C. Uncertain. D. Cautious. 26. What was the root cause of the accident happening to the robot sweeper? A. Its program went wrong. B. It lacked critical thinking. C. Its wheels were badly designed. D. It failed to work on rough surfaces. 27. What does the sixth paragraph mainly talk about concerning AI? A. The accident. B. The public’s thinking. C. Its appeal to the author. D. The author’s opinion. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过个人经历，说明了扫地机器人的好处和弊端，并阐了自己的期待。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“When the box arrived, I was afraid the device would detect me and soak up (汲) data along with the dog hair and dust. (当盒子到达时，我担心这个设备会检测到我，并随着狗毛和灰尘吸收数据。)”可知，起初，作者对扫地机器人的担忧是怕它侵犯她家人的隐私。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段“I powered up the sweeper, watched it leave its docking station to work, and quickly fell in love with my newly shiny floors. I kept shooting its working videos. “I think you’re giving more attention to it than to us,” joked my son. (我给扫地机充上了电，看着它离开坞站开始工作，很快就爱上了我新铺的闪闪发光的地板。我一直在拍摄它的工作视频。“我觉得你把更多的注意力放在它身上，而不是我们身上，”我儿子开玩笑说。)”可知，作者使用扫地人后对扫地机器人充满热情。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第五段“The robot acted properly as it was programmed to clean “dirty” things. In a kitchen, dirt can be garden debris (碎片) such as leaves and mud. In a garden, this kind of dirt does not need to be removed. The context is important. The problem for robots is that reading this context is difficult. (这个机器人的行为是正确的，因为它被编程来清理“脏”的东西。在厨房里，污垢可以是花园的碎片，比如树叶和泥土。在花园里，这种污垢不需要清除。背景很重要。机器人面临的问题是，阅读上下文是很困难的。)”可知，发生事故的根本原因是机器人缺乏批判性思维，故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第六段“This accident inspired me to think more about AI (artificial intelligence). As far as I am concerned, AI is simply well trained and reproduces what it has learned. And it is undeniable that robots are increasingly being given powerful intelligence. Some experts even predict that we will soon see not only AI-enabled robots designed to solve problems according to their instructions, but also those with the ability to judge how they should respond when they are in a different setting. (这次事故激发了我对AI（人工智能）的更多思考。就我而言，人工智能只是训练有素，并复制了它所学到的东西。不可否认的是，越来越多的机器人被赋予强大的智能。一些专家甚至预测，我们很快就会看到不仅能够根据指令解决问题的人工智能机器人，而且还能在不同的环境中判断自己应该如何应对。)”可知，关于人工智能，第六段主要讲作者的观点。故选D。 C On a recent afternoon, dozens of elderly farmers were playing chess in a courtyard, a common scene at the Madongchuan Township Zhaotai Village Mutual Support Nursing Home in Yan’ an, a hilly part of Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self-service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. The younger ones grow vegetables in a small path of land nearby. They cook outdoors using a shared kitchen, and the food is delivered to those with mobility issues. After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. Local authorities also hired a retired village doctor to oversee the facility so that the residents no longer have to go to the hospital for less severe health problems such as cold and fever. “They were enjoying themselves in the moment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zhao Liwen, secretary-general of Taikang Yicai Foundation, said of her first impression about the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity offered help by donating 1 million yuan to the nursing home. When she arrived, the seniors, all empty-nesters who are either childless or have children working in big cities, were wrapping dumplings together. The scene was a sharp contrast from life in the area more than a decade ago. Village elders used to live lonely lives, scattered (分散) among the remote area and unable to access hospitals and other public services. Then in 2013, a flood washed their homes away, forcing them to move into the nursing facility. The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural (乡村的) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside. 28. What do the elderly residents do in the nursing facility? A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjoy their leisure activities. C. They share advanced medical services. D. They employ caregivers to look after them. 29. What approach does the nursing home in Yan’ an take to deal with the rural aging? A. Following strict regulations. B. Developing mutual cooperation. C. Conducting commercial strategies. D. Promoting individual independence. 30. What is the author’s attitude to the self- service nursing home? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favorable. D. Disapproving. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Rural Revival: China’s Approach to Aging Population B. Promoting traditional values: A Tale of Aging in Rural China C. Bridging Generation Gaps: The Story of Yan’ an’s Nursing Home D. Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了延安一个自助养老院的故事，展示了农村互助养老模式。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. (饭后，许多人在闲暇时下棋或聊天)”可知，护理机构中的老年人享受他们的休闲活动，故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self - service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. (这里看不到护理人员。相反，在这个由马东川乡一所废弃的小学改建而成的自助养老院里，老人们互相照顾彼此)”最后一段“Compared with a more commercial or rule - based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. (与城市中更加商业化或以规则为基础的社会相比，中国的农村社区通过个人关系和相互信任来运作)”可知，延安敬老院发展互助合作应对农村老龄化，故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural(乡村的) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. (延安的养老院是中国不断努力利用农村地区“关系型社区”的优势来确保快速老龄化居民得到照顾的最好例子之一)”可知，作者对自助式养老院的态度是支持的，故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文及最后一段中“Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside.(与城市中更商业化或规则化的社会相比，中国的农村社区以个人关系和相互信任为基础运作。养老院展示的自给自足、相互依赖的文化得到了当局的支持，以应对农村的老龄化问题)”可知，文章围绕延安农村基于关系型社区的养老院展开，详细描述了其中老人们的生活以及这种社区关系的作用，D项“Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China (关系型社区：中国农村的一家养老院)”最能概括全文，故选D项。 D Animals being extinct from the Earth is a serious issue. When this happens in order to use their fur or skin for fashion, it is even worse, since it’s not even for a matter of human survival. That’s why a London zoo decided to make a powerful statement at the Siamese crocodile enclosure (鳄鱼围栏). When visitors come in expecting to see a crocodile, they’re greeted with the handbag instead, making a very effective and powerful point about illegal wildlife trade and the harm it takes on the species involved. A sign by the enclosure reads, “This bag used to be found swimming in slow-moving rivers and streams across Southeast Asia and Indonesia. Over the last 75 years, more than 80% of Siamese crocodiles have disappeared. Many, like this one, were hunted for their skins as part of the illegal wildlife trade.”. Native to parts of Southeast Asia, Siamese crocodiles are critically endangered and have become virtually extinct in the wild. Due to hunting as well as habitat loss, they are now absent from nearly 99% of their original range. A huge part of the decline of population is due to humans using their wetland habitat for rice farming, and things only took a turn for the worse when large-scale hunting for their skin for commercial purposes began in the 1950s. The particular handbag that is on display at the zoo was confiscated at a UK airport, according to Benjamin Tapley, leader of reptiles and amphibians at ZSL London Zoo. Tapley told The Huffington Post, “We made this exhibit, within ZSL London Zoo’s Reptile House, to draw visitors’ attention to the destructive impact the Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is having on species around the world. At ZSL, we are working globally with governments and local communities to protect wildlife, support law enforcement (执法) that targets illegal trade networks, empower local communities affected by IWT and reduce demand for threatened wildlife.” 32. Why does the sign say this handbag used to swim? A. It is made of a crocodile’s skin. B. It is made into a crocodile shape. C. It is light enough to float on water. D. It was kept in flowing river at first. 33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Wildly hunting of Siamese crocodiles. B. Destruction of Siamese crocodiles’ habitats. C. Commercial value of Siamese crocodiles. D. Causes to make Siamese crocodiles endangered. 34. What does the underlined word “confiscated” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Seized. B. Sold. C. Found. D. Stolen. 35. What does Tapley’s words focus on? A. The importance of wildlife protection. B. The crisis endangered animals are facing. C. The purpose to show the handbag. D. The harm IWT caused. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。在伦敦动物园的爬行动物馆举办了这个展览，展示用鳄鱼皮做的手提包，以引起游客对非法野生动物贸易对世界各地物种的破坏性影响的关注。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Over the last 75 years, more than 80% of Siamese crocodiles have disappeared. Many, like this one, were hunted for their skins as part of the illegal wildlife trade. (在过去的75年里，超过80%的暹罗鳄已经消失。许多像这只这样的暹罗鳄，因为它们的皮被非法野生动物贸易的一部分而被猎杀)”可知，牌子上说这个手提包是用来游泳的，因为它是用鳄鱼皮做的。故选A。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Native to parts of Southeast Asia, Siamese crocodiles are critically endangered and have become virtually extinct in the wild. Due to hunting as well as habitat loss, they are now absent from nearly 99% of their original range. (暹罗鳄原产于东南亚部分地区，是极度濒危的动物，在野外几乎已经灭绝。由于狩猎和栖息地的丧失，它们现在近99%的原始活动范围内消失了)”可知，本段主要讲述的是使暹罗鳄濒临灭绝的原因。故选D。 【34题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线处“The particular handbag that is on display at the zoo was (在动物园展出的那个特别的手提包)”以及“at a UK airport (在英国机场)”可知，这只在动物园展出的手提包是在英国机场查封的，划线处和A项：Seized(逮住，查封)含义接近。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“We made this exhibit, within ZSL London Zoo’s Reptile House, to draw visitors’ attention to the destructive impact the Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is having on species around the world. (我们在伦敦动物园的爬行动物馆举办了这个展览，以引起游客对非法野生动物贸易(IWT)对世界各地物种的破坏性影响的关注)”可知，塔普利的话旨在引起游客对非法野生动物贸易对世界各地物种的破坏性影响的关注。由此可知，他的意思就是展示手提包的目的上。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。 In every culture throughout time, the kitchen has had a powerful influence.

Our intentions for “home” are evolving. ___37___ Fast-paced lifestyles and work schedules make it hard to find time to shop for groceries and prepare meals. Online food delivery services have taken off, too. In 2016, one in 10 Chinese were ordering food online. Throughout Europe, online ordering is capturing 56 percent of the market in Sweden and 43 percent in Austria. In India, online food ordering is expected to reach close to $12m(US)by 2023. While there is a trend towards bring-in and order-in food, as well as dining out, the kitchen is still a core in home life. Food & Wine cited a survey in 22 countries asking about cooking habits. ___38___ At the lower end were South Koreans, who spent just 3.7 hours per week cooking. People in India were at the top with 13.2 hours per week spent in the kitchen. Simply being in the kitchen, cooking and eating with other people, can have healthy benefits. Regardless of its size, the kitchen is a warm and inviting place. ___39___ The difference is, now you can follow a recipe on your iPad while cooking. It’s true that impersonal appliances are connecting to each other and to us. Refrigerators order vegetables. Cooktop hoods with sensors turn on by themselves. While technology and our expectations for the kitchen are shape-shifting in real time, the fundamentals remain the same. ___40___ A. So is cooking a way to express yourself? B. The global average was almost 6.5 hours. C. But is our relationship to the kitchen changing? D. It’s like gathering around a campfire in the past. E. People seem to be spending less time cooking worldwide. F. Now more of them are eating outside the home more frequently. G. The kitchen is where we connect with food and company in the soul of the home. 【答案】36. C 37. E 38. B 39. D 40.

Dad was getting a flower bed ready for Mom to plant flowers in, I was picking up litter next to the fence and Mom was removing old leaves that had been in the yard since last autumn. I found a bird’s nest in the big tree behind our house. After a while, two birds flew back to the nest and I heard their calls from the nest. Dad said they were Robins (知更鸟). I was about to climb the tree to get a good look inside the nest when Dad saw and stopped me. Dad said Robins did not want to be bothered. I nodded. We went for quite a while and then decided to sit at the picnic table with a glass of cool water. As we sat there, I watched the Robin nest in the tree, wondering what was in it. Were there eggs? Were there baby birds? A moment later, we continued to work. When we finished up our work outside, we went in to fix some food and ate supper, then got cleaned up, watched some TV and went to bed. Morning came quickly with the sun shining in through the windows. While we ate breakfast, we talked about what we needed to do for the day. Since it was the weekend, we wanted to do some more work in the yard to finish the jobs we had started the day before. We met outside in the front yard this time to do some touch-up work to the front of the house. Dad got out a big tank of white paint to take care of some chips (缺口) along the lower edge of the house next to the basement windows. It was another nice sunny day. As Dad did the painting work, Mom and I picked rocks out of the grass. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 And I saw a thing in the grass under the big tree — a bird nest. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Dad’s help, I climbed up the tree carefully with the meet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 And I saw a thing in the grass under the big tree — a bird nest. I quickly ran over to it and saw that it was the same nest I had seen in the tree the day before. It must have fallen out of the tree somehow. I looked around and saw the two Robins flying around, chirping loudly. They seemed distressed. I called out to my dad and mom, and they came over to see what was going on. Dad examined the nest and said it looked like it was still in good shape. He suggested that we try to put it back in the tree. With Dad’s help, I climbed up the tree carefully with the nest. I found a sturdy branch close to where the nest had originally been and gently placed it there. The Robins watched from a distance, still chirping but not as loudly as before. Once the nest was secure, I climbed back down and we all stepped back to see what would happen. After a few minutes, the Robins cautiously approached the nest. They inspected it and then settled back in, seemingly satisfied. I felt a sense of accomplishment and relief. We continued our yard work, but I kept an eye on the Robins throughout the day. It felt good to know that we had helped them and that they could continue to care for their nest and any eggs or baby birds inside. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者一家的院子工作和对知更鸟巢的观察为线索展开，讲述了春天到来时，作者与父母一起在院子里忙碌，准备花床、清理垃圾和旧叶。在这个过程中，作者偶然发现了知更鸟的巢，并对其产生了浓厚兴趣，想要深入探究巢内的秘密。然而，在父亲的提醒下，作者明白了要尊重自然、不打扰鸟类生活。随后，他们完成了院子里的工作，回到家中休息。第二天，作者一家又投入到新的院子修饰工作中，同时作者依然对知更鸟巢保持关注。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“我在大树下的草地上看到了一个东西——一个鸟巢。”可知，第一段可描写作者在大树下的草地上发现了一个鸟巢，是昨天作者看到的知更鸟的鸟巢，检查发现鸟巢是完整的，决定把它放回树上。 ②由第二段首句内容“在爸爸的帮助下，我小心翼翼地带着鸟巢爬上了树。”可知，第二段可描写作者放回鸟巢的过程以及感悟。 2. 续写线索：发现鸟巢——检查完整——决定放回——成功放回——感悟。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①检查：examine/check ②注意：keep an eye on/pay attention to ③帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①忧虑的：distressed/upset ②满意的：satisfied/content 【点睛】[高分句型1]I quickly ran over to it and saw that it was the same nest I had seen in the tree the day before.(that引导的宾语从句，以及省略关系词的定语从句) [高分句型2]It felt good to know that we had helped them and that they could continue to care for their nest and any eggs or baby birds inside.(that引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年度高二年级上学期第一次月考英语试卷 总分：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。 例: How much is the shirt?

B A few months ago, a friend gifted me a robot sweeper that’s programmed to move around a room and clean as it goes. When the box arrived, I was afraid the device would detect me and soak up (汲) data along with the dog hair and dust. But the instructions were easy, and I finally decided not to care. I powered up the sweeper, watched it leave its docking station to work, and quickly fell in love with my newly shiny floors. I kept shooting its working videos. “I think you’re giving more attention to it than to us,” joked my son. One day, I returned home and discovered that our front door had blown open and the robot rolled into the yard, trying to clean the flower beds. Even when its brushes were blocked with leaves, bugs and mud, its little wheels bravely kept turning. The robot acted properly as it was programmed to clean “dirty” things. In a kitchen, dirt can be garden debris (碎片) such as leaves and mud. In a garden, this kind of dirt does not need to be removed. The context is important. The problem for robots is that reading this context is difficult. This accident inspired me to think more about AI (artificial intelligence). As far as I am concerned, AI is simply well trained and reproduces what it has learned. And it is undeniable that robots are increasingly being given powerful intelligence. Some experts even predict that we will soon see not only AI-enabled robots designed to solve problems according to their instructions, but also those with the ability to judge how they should respond when they are in a different setting. Maybe this will happen in the near future. 24. What was the author’s concern about the robot sweeper at first? A. Its after-sales service. B. Its working efficiency. C. The privacy of her family. D. The readability of its instruction. 25. How did the author feel about the robot sweeper after using it? A. Enthusiastic. B. Regretful. C. Uncertain. D. Cautious. 26. What was the root cause of the accident happening to the robot sweeper? A. Its program went wrong. B. It lacked critical thinking. C. Its wheels were badly designed. D. It failed to work on rough surfaces. 27. What does the sixth paragraph mainly talk about concerning AI? A. The accident. B. The public’s thinking. C. Its appeal to the author. D. The author’s opinion. C On a recent afternoon, dozens of elderly farmers were playing chess in a courtyard, a common scene at the Madongchuan Township Zhaotai Village Mutual Support Nursing Home in Yan’ an, a hilly part of Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. There are no caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents look after one another at the self-service nursing facility, which was rebuilt from a deserted primary school in Madongchuan township. The younger ones grow vegetables in a small path of land nearby. They cook outdoors using a shared kitchen, and the food is delivered to those with mobility issues. After meals, many play chess or chat at their leisure. Local authorities also hired a retired village doctor to oversee the facility so that the residents no longer have to go to the hospital for less severe health problems such as cold and fever. “They were enjoying themselves in the moment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zhao Liwen, secretary-general of Taikang Yicai Foundation, said of her first impression about the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity offered help by donating 1 million yuan to the nursing home. When she arrived, the seniors, all empty-nesters who are either childless or have children working in big cities, were wrapping dumplings together. The scene was a sharp contrast from life in the area more than a decade ago. Village elders used to live lonely lives, scattered (分散) among the remote area and unable to access hospitals and other public services. Then in 2013, a flood washed their homes away, forcing them to move into the nursing facility. The nursing home in Yan’ an is one of the best examples of China’s increasing efforts to take advantage of the strength of “relationship - based communities” in rural (乡村) areas to ensure fast-graying residents are cared for. Compared with a more commercial or rule-based society in cities, rural communities in China are known to operate through personal connections and mutual trust. The self-sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing home is being supported by authorities to deal with aging in the countryside. 28. What do the elderly residents do in the nursing facility? A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjoy their leisure activities. C. They share advanced medical services. D. They employ caregivers to look after them. 29. What approach does the nursing home in Yan’ an take to deal with the rural aging? A. Following strict regulations. B. Developing mutual cooperation. C. Conducting commercial strategies. D. Promoting individual independence. 30. What is the author’s attitude to the self- service nursing home? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favorable. D. Disapproving. 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Rural Revival: China’s Approach to Aging Population B. Promoting traditional values: A Tale of Aging in Rural China C. Bridging Generation Gaps: The Story of Yan’ an’s Nursing Home D. Relationship - Based Community: A Nursing Home in Rural China D Animals being extinct from the Earth is a serious issue. When this happens in order to use their fur or skin for fashion, it is even worse, since it’s not even for a matter of human survival. That’s why a London zoo decided to make a powerful statement at the Siamese crocodile enclosure (鳄鱼围栏). When visitors come in expecting to see a crocodile, they’re greeted with the handbag instead, making a very effective and powerful point about illegal wildlife trade and the harm it takes on the species involved. A sign by the enclosure reads, “This bag used to be found swimming in slow-moving rivers and streams across Southeast Asia and Indonesia. Over the last 75 years, more than 80% of Siamese crocodiles have disappeared. Many, like this one, were hunted for their skins as part of the illegal wildlife trade.”. Native to parts of Southeast Asia, Siamese crocodiles are critically endangered and have become virtually extinct in the wild. Due to hunting as well as habitat loss, they are now absent from nearly 99% of their original range. A huge part of the decline of population is due to humans using their wetland habitat for rice farming, and things only took a turn for the worse when large-scale hunting for their skin for commercial purposes began in the 1950s. The particular handbag that is on display at the zoo was confiscated at a UK airport, according to Benjamin Tapley, leader of reptiles and amphibians at ZSL London Zoo. Tapley told The Huffington Post, “We made this exhibit, within ZSL London Zoo’s Reptile House, to draw visitors’ attention to the destructive impact the Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is having on species around the world. At ZSL, we are working globally with governments and local communities to protect wildlife, support law enforcement (执法) that targets illegal trade networks, empower local communities affected by IWT and reduce demand for threatened wildlife.” 32. Why does the sign say this handbag used to swim? A. It is made of a crocodile’s skin. B. It is made into a crocodile shape. C. It is light enough to float on water. D. It was kept in flowing river at first. 33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Wildly hunting of Siamese crocodiles. B. Destruction of Siamese crocodiles’ habitats. C. Commercial value of Siamese crocodiles. D. Causes to make Siamese crocodiles endangered. 34. What does the underlined word “confiscated” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Seized. B. Sold. C. Found. D. Stolen. 35. What does Tapley’s words focus on? A. The importance of wildlife protection. B. The crisis endangered animals are facing. C. The purpose to show the handbag. D. The harm IWT caused. 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。 In every culture throughout time, the kitchen has had a powerful influence.

Dad was getting a flower bed ready for Mom to plant flowers in, I was picking up litter next to the fence and Mom was removing old leaves that had been in the yard since last autumn. I found a bird’s nest in the big tree behind our house. After a while, two birds flew back to the nest and I heard their calls from the nest. Dad said they were Robins (知更鸟). I was about to climb the tree to get a good look inside the nest when Dad saw and stopped me. Dad said Robins did not want to be bothered. I nodded. We went for quite a while and then decided to sit at the picnic table with a glass of cool water. As we sat there, I watched the Robin nest in the tree, wondering what was in it. Were there eggs? Were there baby birds? A moment later, we continued to work. When we finished up our work outside, we went in to fix some food and ate supper, then got cleaned up, watched some TV and went to bed. Morning came quickly with the sun shining in through the windows. While we ate breakfast, we talked about what we needed to do for the day. Since it was the weekend, we wanted to do some more work in the yard to finish the jobs we had started the day before. We met outside in the front yard this time to do some touch-up work to the front of the house. Dad got out a big tank of white paint to take care of some chips (缺口) along the lower edge of the house next to the basement windows. It was another nice sunny day. As Dad did the painting work, Mom and I picked rocks out of the grass. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 And I saw a thing in the grass under the big tree — a bird nest. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Dad’s help, I climbed up the tree carefully with the meet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
