After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job. The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start a new day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards. Toward the end of my fourth year at Merrill Lynch, it hit me that something was missing. I thought long and hard about my goals. Then I was reminded of the time when I spoke to hundreds of people, while in college as a student leader, and years later, when I won a “Humorous Speech” championship. It dawned on me that every time I had a speaking engagement, I always came out of the experience with a wonderful, energetic, peaceful and magical feeling that was unmatched by anything else I did. I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives. Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker. The beginning of my speaking journey was surprisingly similar to what I had first experienced at Merrill Lynch. However, nothing in the world comes close to the satisfying feeling I get when thousands of people tell me how much I have made a difference in their lives by motivating them to take risks and be the best they could be. 4. Why did the author meet with a Merrill Lynch branch vice president? A. To get a position. B. To employ more clerks. C. To arrange an interview. D. To make an advertisement. 5. Which of the following best describes the author according to paragraph 2? A. Generous and ambitious. B. Sensitive and successful. C. Tough and competent. D. Optimistic and agreeable. 6. Why did the author leave Merrill Lynch? A. Because he hoped to relive college life. B. Because he wanted to influence others. C. Because he had an engagement. D. Because his investment was not satisfying. 7. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Dare to Take Risks. B. Perseverance Pays Off. C. Reconsider Your Career Choice. D. Speaking Makes a Satisfying Job. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章作者用自身经历告诉我们要敢于挑战、敢于冒险。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.( 因此，当我看到美林公司招聘更多股票经纪人的广告时，我非常兴奋地打了几个电话，并安排与该公司的一位分行副总裁会面。经过这次面试和他的12位顶级股票经纪人的面试，我最终得到了这份工作)”可知，作者与美林公司分行副总裁会面，是为了获得股票经纪人这个岗位。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start a new day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.(他最初的几个月很挣扎。我靠很少的佣金生活。一夜又一夜，我疲惫不堪地离开办公室，准备放弃，但不知怎么的第二天早上又回来开始新的一天。最终，所有的努力都得到了回报。在不到四年的时间里，我成为了分公司最优秀的销售人员之一，个人销售额增长了1700%。这次成功为我赢得了六位数的收入、晋升和无数的销售奖励)”可知，作者最初的几个月很艰难，只能靠很少的佣金生活，但在不到四年的时间里，作者成为了分公司最优秀的销售人员之一。由此推知，作者虽然过得艰难，但是也很有能力。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话“I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives.(我知道我所拥有的非凡的公共演讲技巧可以使我产生持久的影响，并改变别人的生活)”和第四段第一句话“Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker.(然后，我又冒了一次大胆的风险，放弃了一切，离开了投资行业，去做一名更令人满意的励志演说家)”可知，作者离开美林公司，离开投资行业，去做一名励志演说家，是希望用自己的演讲技巧改变别人的生活，影响别人。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。阅读文章，尤其是第一段第二句“After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging.(在华尔街一家大银行工作了十年之后，我想做一些具有挑战性的事情)”和最后一段第一句“Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker.(然后，我又冒了一次大胆的风险，放弃了一切，离开了投资行业，去做一名更令人满意的励志演说家)”可知，作者用自身经历告诉我们要敢于挑战，敢于冒险。由此可知，A项“Dare to Take Risks(敢于冒险)”最能概括本文主旨。故选A。 C Many people have a too rosy view of the beverage and are surprised when confronted with the facts about it on a nutrition label, according to our recent study. Right now, people usually think of red wine as a “virtue” rather than a “vice”, thanks to popular belief about its health benefits. But requiring nutrition labels, which are currently voluntary, could change those views. In our experimental research which included nearly 800 participants, we found that American consumers aren’t used to seeing nutrition information on wine labels, and most are surprised by what they read since they don’t associate wine with calories, carbohydrates and sugar. People who were prompted to read labels viewed wine as less healthy than they did beforehand, and they were less likely to buy it. We also found that people are more surprised by the sugar content of sweeter wines, such as Moscato, than by the number of calories. Sweet wines, in particular, may contain more sugar than consumers realize. Nutrition labels don’t need to be bad news for the wine industry. Wine sales have recently declined among those aged 60 and younger, and greater transparency in labeling could help rekindle young consumers’ interest. Millennial and Gen Z consumers may especially appreciate clearer labels, since they could help them view wine as less mysterious and more accessible. They may also allow them to fit an occasional glass of wine into their personal health goals. What’s more, there’s been a recent trend toward wine packaging including labels like “organic” and “sustainable”, which may appeal to consumers’ preference for sustainability. These labels have less to do with nutrition than with manufacturers trying to appear eco-friendly—but makers of natural wine would likely benefit most from offering nutrition information. And there’s still more to learn about how nutrition labels affect behavior. Studies have shown mixed results, but on the whole, labeling appears to make people cut their calorie intake somewhat. Still, the U. S. put nutrition labels on foods in the 1990s, and that hasn’t stopped the obesity rate from rising. 8. What can be learned from the study? A. People used to regard wine as a vice. B. Wine labeling confirms wine as a virtue. C. Nutrition labels go against the will of the public. D. Nutrition labels change people’s views on red wine. 9. Who might benefit most from the new trend toward wine packaging? A. Wine stores. B. The government. C. Mass customers. D. Natural wine producers. 10. What do Paragraph 5 and Paragraph 6 mainly focus on? A. The benefits of wine labeling. B. Policy changes on wine labeling. C The downside of wine labeling. D. People’s attitudes toward wine labeling. 11. Why does the author mention the U. S. nutrition labels in the last paragraph? A. To show their positive effect on behavior. B. To give an example of changes on food labels. C. To illustrate the serious obesity problem in America. D. To present their uncertain impact on customers’ behavior. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。本文主要介绍了葡萄酒添加成分标签这一变化对葡萄酒产业及消费者的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But requiring nutrition labels, which are currently voluntary, could change those views.(但要求食品标注营养成分(目前是自愿的)可能会改变这些观点)”以及第三段“People who were prompted to read labels viewed wine as less healthy than they did beforehand, and they were less likely to buy it.(被提示阅读标签的人认为葡萄酒比之前更不健康，他们购买葡萄酒的可能性也更小)”可知，营养成分标签改变了人们对红酒的看法。故选 D 项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“What’s more, there’s been a recent trend toward wine packaging including labels like “organic” and “sustainable”, which may appeal to consumers’ preference for sustainability. These labels have less to do with nutrition than with manufacturers trying to appear eco-friendly—but makers of natural wine would likely benefit most from offering nutrition information.(此外，最近葡萄酒包装上出现了一种趋势，包括“有机”和“可持续”等标签，这可能会吸引消费者对可持续性的偏好。这些标签与其说与营养有关，不如说是与生产商试图显得环保有关——但天然葡萄酒的生产商可能会从提供营养信息中获益最多)”可知，天然葡萄酒生产商可能会从中获益最多。故选 D项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“Nutrition labels don’t need to be bad news for the wine industry.(对葡萄酒行业来说，营养标签不一定是坏消息)”以及第六段“What’s more, there’s been a recent trend toward wine packaging including labels like “organic” and “sustainable”, which may appeal to consumers’ preference for sustainability.(此外，最近葡萄酒包装上出现了一种趋势，包括“有机”和“可持续”等标签，这可能会吸引消费者对可持续性的偏好)”可知，这两段主要介绍的是葡萄酒标签带来的好处。故选 A 项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“And there’s still more to learn about how nutrition labels affect behavior. Studies have shown mixed results, but on the whole, labeling appears to make people cut their calorie intake somewhat. Still, the U. S. put nutrition labels on foods in the 1990s, and that hasn’t stopped the obesity rate from rising.(关于营养标签如何影响行为，还有更多需要了解的。研究结果喜忧参半，但总的来说，标签似乎能让人们在一定程度上减少卡路里摄入量。尽管如此，美国在20世纪90年代就在食品上贴上了营养标签，但这并没有阻止肥胖率的上升)”可知，作者在最后一段提到了美国的营养标签是为了说明葡萄酒添加标签的影响仍是不确定的。故选 D 项。 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 We live in an interruption-based culture that can be damaging to productivity.

G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了规避干扰文化影响的五种方法。 【12题详解】 分析设空，位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“Write down what you want to finish each day and identify a single priority that you commit yourself to complete This will help focus your brain on what matters, dealing with the big jobs first and leaving the small ones till later.(写下你每天想要完成的事情，并确定一个你承诺自己要完成的优先事项，这将帮助你的大脑集中在重要的事情上，先处理大的工作，把小的留到以后)”可知，本段介绍了在开始之前先确定每天想要完成的事情的优先级，所以A项“Put first things first.(重要的事情先做)”符合本段主题，为本段中心句。故选A项。 【13题详解】 分析设空，位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“Turn off the distractions. Actively checking for information may distract you from work. Consider checking email only four times per day and handling each inquiry only once. Try to control your devices, instead of having that technology control you.(关闭干扰。积极查看信息可能会分散你的工作注意力。考虑每天只查看四次电子邮件，每个问题只处理一次。试着控制你的设备，而不是让技术控制你)”可知，本段谈论的是如何降低干扰，所以E项“This may help reduce distractions and increase your focus.(这可能有助于减少干扰，提高你的注意力)”符合本段主题，是对前文的总结。故选E项。 【14题详解】 根据前文“Get comfortable.(保持舒适)”以及后文“Comfort could be determined by the clothes, the chair, the music, the temperature of the room or the work location. Knowing what environment makes you comfortable yet focused at the same time can help you maintain focus through the workday.(舒适度可以由衣服、椅子、音乐、房间温度或工作地点决定。知道什么样的环境让你感到舒适，同时又能集中注意力，这样可以帮助你在工作日保持专注)”可知，D项“This means something different for different people.(这对不同的人来说意味着不同的东西)”承上启下，且其中的This指代上文的Get comfortable，与下文 Comfort 相呼应。故选D项。 【15题详解】 根据前文“Set smaller goals. Big goals may be great for motivational speeches.(设定小目标。大目标可能对励志演讲很有帮助)”以及后文“Consider breaking down all goals into smaller pieces that can be finished more easily. As a result, this may only require focus for a shorter period of time, which may mean an increased possibility of completing the task.(考虑把所有的目标分解成更容易完成的小目标。因此，这可能只需要在较短的时间内集中注意力，这可能意味着完成任务的可能性增加)”可知，设空处上文谈论了大目标的好处，下文是谈论从大目标向小目标转变，所以F项“However, they don’t help anyone focus on getting important things done.(然而，它们并不能帮助任何人专注于完成重要的事情)”和前文构成转折关系，符合语境。故选F项。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Take a walk.(散个步)”可知，G项“Standing up and getting away from the office can help increase your focus.(站起来离开办公室可以帮助你集中注意力)”是对前文的进一步解释，建议离开办公室去散步，符合本段主题。故选G项。 III. 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In February 2020, Max’s friend Rick was diagnosed with cancer.

A. seen B. to be seen C. seeing D. to see 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查动词不定式。句意：——结果如何？——嗯，我们是否得到足够的支持还有待观察。空格所在的句子为“it作形式主语，whether引导的主语从句作真正主语”，结合句意可知，此处表示将要发生的动作，且see与主语之间为被动关系，所以此处使用动词不定式的被动形式to be seen。故选B项。 41.

A. watching B. to be watching C. having watched D. to have watched 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：嫌疑犯声称房子着火时他正在和家人一起看电视。claim to do意思为：声称做某事，空处用不定式作宾语，结合when the house caught fire可知，表示看电视的动作正在进行，应用不定式的进行式。故选B。 42. —Why, Jack, you look so tired! —Well, I ________ the house and I must finish the work tomorrow.

I am a person full of passion for a _______ of things and ________ aspects of my life. A. vary; various B. varied;variety C. various; vary D. variety;various 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查名词和形容词。句意：我是一个对各种事物和生活的各个方面充满激情的人。第一空为固定短语a variety of意为“各种各样的”，所以使用名词variety；第二空为形容词作定语修饰名词aspects，所以使用名词various。故选D项。 46. ______back in my seat,I can’t quite believe that I’m about_______along the railway_____many foreign experts claimed was “impossible”.

Sat; traveling; that 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语和定语从句。句意：靠在椅背上，我简直不敢相信我要沿着许多外国专家声称“不可能”的铁路旅行。第一空为非谓语动词，sit与I在逻辑上是主动关系，用现在分词作状语；第二个空为be about to do sth“将要做某事”；第二个空涉及一个限制性定语从句，空处需要填入关系代词，代替先行词the railway，在从句中作主语 ，many foreign experts claimed做插入语，所以填that。故选C项。 第II卷(共50分) I. 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 On our way to the house, it was raining ___47___ hard that we couldn’t help wondering how long it would take ___48___(get) there.

They didn’t have much but were content with the little they had. Every day after he came home from school, Bob would accompany his mother to the forest to collect firewood. One day, when Bob was in the forest collecting wood, he came across a puppy which seemed to be all alone. Bob looked here and there for its owner but in vain. So he picked it up, put it under his shirt and carried it home. Reaching home, he said to her mother, “Mom, I found a little puppy alone in the forest! Can we keep him, please?“ Feeling Bob’s happiness, his mother was in two minds about whether to keep the puppy or not. She told him, ”Oh Bob, that’s the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen! But we don’t have much. What will we do about his food and sleeping arrangement?“ Bob replied, “It’s OK. I’ll give him half of my meals and let him sleep with me in my bed.” Hearing this, Bob’s mother just nodded. Bob’s happiness knew no bounds, and he named the puppy Milo. From that day onwards, Bob and Milo became the best friends. Milo followed Bob wherever he went. When Bob went to school, Milo would diligently wait outside the classroom till the classes ended. At night, Milo slept next to Bob on his tiny bed and dreamed sweet dreams. On one particular day, Milo was sick, unable to follow Bob, so he stayed at home. That day it rained heavily, and the roads everywhere turned slippery. On his way home, Bob was trying to reach home as soon as possible as he dreamed of Milo waiting for him and keeping him warm. Unfortunately, Bob missed seeing a hole at the side of the road and fell down the hole! 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He cried for help, hoping to be heard by passers-by. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Milo’s behavior drew the search party’s attention, and they ran towards the hole. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: He cried for help, hoping to be heard by passers-by. But due to the loud thundering and noise of the heavy rains, no one heard him. It had become very late, and Bob’s mother was worried at home. She called the neighbors, and they formed a search party to find Bob. Milo, too, was worried, and so he joined them all. They searched high and low but still couldn’t find Bob. Milo used his keen sense of smell and went sniffing everywhere. When he came closer to the hole, he picked up Bob’s scents and started barking loudly. Milo’s behavior drew the search party’s attention, and they ran towards the hole. When they looked into it, they found Bob sitting and shivering in the darkness, wet and cold. Some people comforted Bob gently while others fetched a rope quickly and dropped it down to Bob. He held onto one end and then they pulled him up. Everyone cheered, Milo jumping around happily. Bob’s mother hugged him tightly. Bob thanked everyone for helping him and hugged Milo lovingly for being his best friend and hero. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物关系为线索，讲述了小男孩Bob在森林中捡到一只小狗，Bob的母亲因为家境贫穷而不想养这只小狗，但是Bob非常坚持，所以他的妈妈同意了。有一天，Bob在回家的路上遇到了大雨，不慎掉到了一个洞中。Bob的母亲看见儿子放学后久久没有回家，所以就和邻居一块去寻找儿子。幸运的是，Bob捡的那只小狗发现了Bob，成功救出了他。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他大声呼救，希望路人能听到他的声音。”可知，第一段可描写Bob的小狗在寻找的过程中找到了他。 ②由第二段首句内容“米洛的行为引起了搜索队的注意，他们向洞口跑去。”可知，第二段可描写人们在小狗的帮助下，一起把Bob救了上来。 2.续写线索：掉入洞中——母亲找人寻找——小狗发现——引起注意——成功救援 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①四处搜寻： searched high and low/look for around ②仅仅拥抱：hug sb. tightly/throw one’s arms around sb. ③帮助某人：help sb./give sb. a hand 情绪类 担心：be worried/be concerned 感谢每个人：thank everyone/be grateful to everyone 【点睛】【高分句型1】When he came closer to the hole, he picked up Bob’s scents and started barking loudly.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】When they looked into it, they found Bob sitting and shivering in the darkness, wet and cold. （运用了现在分词作宾语补足语） 听力答案：1-5 BCBAA 6-10 CBBCA 11-15 BACAB 16-20 CABAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024--2025学年度高二学年上学期期中考试 英语试卷 本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分 满分150分，考试时间120分钟 第Ⅰ卷(选择题，共100分) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，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。 1.

B I truly believe we all have a very special purpose in life, regardless of who we are or where we come from. After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job. The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start a new day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards. Toward the end of my fourth year at Merrill Lynch, it hit me that something was missing. I thought long and hard about my goals. Then I was reminded of the time when I spoke to hundreds of people, while in college as a student leader, and years later, when I won a “Humorous Speech” championship. It dawned on me that every time I had a speaking engagement, I always came out of the experience with a wonderful, energetic, peaceful and magical feeling that was unmatched by anything else I did. I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives. Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker. The beginning of my speaking journey was surprisingly similar to what I had first experienced at Merrill Lynch. However, nothing in the world comes close to the satisfying feeling I get when thousands of people tell me how much I have made a difference in their lives by motivating them to take risks and be the best they could be. 4. Why did the author meet with a Merrill Lynch branch vice president? A. To get a position. B. To employ more clerks. C. To arrange an interview. D. To make an advertisement. 5. Which of the following best describes the author according to paragraph 2? A. Generous and ambitious. B. Sensitive and successful. C. Tough and competent. D. Optimistic and agreeable. 6. Why did the author leave Merrill Lynch? A. Because he hoped to relive college life. B. Because he wanted to influence others. C. Because he had an engagement. D. Because his investment was not satisfying. 7. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Dare to Take Risks. B. Perseverance Pays Off. C. Reconsider Your Career Choice. D. Speaking Makes a Satisfying Job. C Many people have a too rosy view of the beverage and are surprised when confronted with the facts about it on a nutrition label, according to our recent study. Right now, people usually think of red wine as a “virtue” rather than a “vice”, thanks to popular belief about its health benefits. But requiring nutrition labels, which are currently voluntary, could change those views. In our experimental research, which included nearly 800 participants, we found that American consumers aren’t used to seeing nutrition information on wine labels, and most are surprised by what they read since they don’t associate wine with calories, carbohydrates and sugar. People who were prompted to read labels viewed wine as less healthy than they did beforehand, and they were less likely to buy it. We also found that people are more surprised by the sugar content of sweeter wines, such as Moscato, than by the number of calories. Sweet wines, in particular, may contain more sugar than consumers realize. Nutrition labels don’t need to be bad news for the wine industry. Wine sales have recently declined among those aged 60 and younger, and greater transparency in labeling could help rekindle young consumers’ interest. Millennial and Gen Z consumers may especially appreciate clearer labels, since they could help them view wine as less mysterious and more accessible. They may also allow them to fit an occasional glass of wine into their personal health goals. What’s more, there’s been a recent trend toward wine packaging including labels like “organic” and “sustainable”, which may appeal to consumers’ preference for sustainability. These labels have less to do with nutrition than with manufacturers trying to appear eco-friendly—but makers of natural wine would likely benefit most from offering nutrition information. And there’s still more to learn about how nutrition labels affect behavior. Studies have shown mixed results, but on the whole, labeling appears to make people cut their calorie intake somewhat. Still, the U. S. put nutrition labels on foods in the 1990s, and that hasn’t stopped the obesity rate from rising. 8. What can be learned from the study? A. People used to regard wine as a vice. B. Wine labeling confirms wine as a virtue. C. Nutrition labels go against the will of the public. D Nutrition labels change people’s views on red wine. 9. Who might benefit most from the new trend toward wine packaging? A. Wine stores. B. The government. C. Mass customers. D. Natural wine producers. 10. What do Paragraph 5 and Paragraph 6 mainly focus on? A. The benefits of wine labeling. B. Policy changes on wine labeling. C. The downside of wine labeling. D. People’s attitudes toward wine labeling. 11. Why does the author mention the U. S. nutrition labels in the last paragraph? A. To show their positive effect on behavior. B. To give an example of changes on food labels. C. To illustrate the serious obesity problem in America. D. To present their uncertain impact on customers’ behavior. 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 We live in an interruption-based culture that can be damaging to productivity.

They didn’t have much but were content with the little they had. Every day after he came home from school, Bob would accompany his mother to the forest to collect firewood. One day, when Bob was in the forest collecting wood, he came across a puppy which seemed to be all alone. Bob looked here and there for its owner but in vain. So he picked it up, put it under his shirt and carried it home. Reaching home, he said to her mother, “Mom, I found a little puppy alone in the forest! Can we keep him, please?“ Feeling Bob’s happiness, his mother was in two minds about whether to keep the puppy or not. She told him, ”Oh Bob, that’s the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen! But we don’t have much. What will we do about his food and sleeping arrangement?“ Bob replied, “It’s OK. I’ll give him half of my meals and let him sleep with me in my bed.” Hearing this, Bob’s mother just nodded. Bob’s happiness knew no bounds, and he named the puppy Milo. From that day onwards, Bob and Milo became the best friends. Milo followed Bob wherever he went. When Bob went to school, Milo would diligently wait outside the classroom till the classes ended. At night, Milo slept next to Bob on his tiny bed and dreamed sweet dreams. On one particular day, Milo was sick, unable to follow Bob, so he stayed at home. That day it rained heavily, and the roads everywhere turned slippery. On his way home, Bob was trying to reach home as soon as possible as he dreamed of Milo waiting for him and keeping him warm. Unfortunately, Bob missed seeing a hole at the side of the road and fell down the hole! 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He cried for help, hoping to be heard by passers-by. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Milo’s behavior drew the search party’s attention, and they ran towards the hole. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 BCBAA 6-10 CBBCA 11-15 BACAB 16-20 CABAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
