A篇 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，主要介绍了四个犹他州的国家公园。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Zion National Park”部分中“Late spring or early fall is the best time to visit Zion National Park, since most facilities are open during this time. (晚春或初秋是游览Zion National Park的最佳时间，因为大多数设施都在这段时间开放)”可知游览该公园的最佳时期是晚春或初秋。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Canyonlands National Park”部分中“Although it’s the 23rd largest National Park in the US, Canyonlands is the largest out of the four national parks in Utah. (虽然Canyonlands是美国第23大国家公园，但它是犹他州四个国家公园中最大的一个)”可知Canyonlands National Park是犹他州最大的国家公园。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Arches National Park”部分中“Known as a red-rock wonderland, Arches National Park is popular for its stone arches (石拱).The park has over 2,000 stone arches, with Landscape Arch the largest. (Arches National Park因其石拱而闻名于世，被称为红岩仙境) ”可知，游客可以在Arches National Park欣赏红岩。故选D。 B篇 【答案】4．B 5．A 6．B 7．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了William Lindesay是著名的长城专家和自然环境保护主义者，他和妻子带着孩子走遍世界各地，用实际行动践行了“读万卷书不如行万里路”。 4．推理判断题。根据第二段“Most of their trips seem far from relaxing—cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow.(他们的大多数旅行似乎都不是轻松的——在炎热干燥的沙漠中进行文化研究，在新西兰徒步旅行53公里，在英国的三座山顶上攀登一天，从北京到莫斯科坐六天的火车)”可推知，他们的很多旅行是具有挑战性的。故选B。 5．词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Lindesay says they just choose to spend money on travel. (许多人认为这个家庭一定很富有，能负担得起他们的环球旅行，但事实并非如此。林赛说，他们只是选择把钱花在旅行上)”以及下文“pricey hotels and restaurants where possible (尽可能去昂贵的酒店和餐厅)”以及林赛提到的例子可知，许多人认为这个家庭一定很富有，能负担得起他们的全球旅行，但事实并非如此。林赛说，他们只是选择把钱花在旅行上，尽可能避开昂贵的酒店和餐馆。故画线词eschew的意思是“避开，回避，避免”。故选A。 6．细节理解题。根据第四段的“However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children’s schooling.(然而，他们的旅行可能持续数周或数月，有时与孩子的学校教育不一致)”可知，他们在旅行中遇到的问题是旅行的时间和孩子上学时间的冲突。故选B。 7．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Lindesay attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says.(林赛非常重视课堂外的学习，他说孩子们可能在学校考试中取得好成绩，但到外面旅行，在遥远的地方，在不同的语言、文化和政治结构中，才是真正的考验。“你只能在街上获得街头智慧。只有在见识了世界之后，你才能变得善于处事。”)”可推知，林赛会认同“读万卷书不如行万里路”这一观点。故选D。 C篇 【答案】8．D 9．C 10．B 11．A 【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章主要讲述了奥尔良的堤坝并没有完全阻挡洪水。 8．细节理解题。根据第二段中““We didn’t have these problems until everybody else’s levees worked,” said Hebert, 46. “It may not be the only cause, but I sure do think it makes a difference.”(46岁的赫伯特说: “直到其他人的堤坝开始工作，我们才有了这些问题。”“这可能不是唯一的原因，但我确实认为它起到了作用。”)”可知，Hebert认为附近的堤坝导致了洪水，故选D。 9．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Gov. John Bel Edwards said a recent survey of levees across Louisiana showed they did exactly what they were for and held the water out. “We don’t believe there is a single levee anywhere now that actually broke or failed. There were only a few smaller levees in New Orleans that failed,” Edwards said.(州长约翰·贝尔·爱德华斯表示，最近对路易斯安那州各地堤坝的调查显示，堤坝的作用恰到好处，挡住了洪水。“我们不认为现在哪里有一座堤坝真的崩溃了。在新奥尔良只有少数较小的堤坝失败了。”)”可推知，Edwards认为新奥尔良的洪水保护系统总的来说还是令人满意的。故选C。 10．推理判断题。根据第四段“After Katrina, the government spent $14.5 billion on projects designed to improve protection from storm surge and flooding in New Orleans and nearby areas. The system is a 130-mile ring built to hold out storm surge of about 30 feet. In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina produced a storm surge that flooded about four-fifths of the city, causing over 1,800 deaths.(卡特里娜飓风过后，美国政府斥资145亿美元用于改善新奥尔良及其附近地区防御风暴潮和洪水的工程。该系统是一个130英里长的环形结构，可以抵御约30英尺的风暴潮。2005年8月，飓风卡特里娜引发的风暴潮淹没了该市约五分之四的地区，造成1800多人死亡。)”可知，第四段介绍了一些用于防洪堤建设的费用，以及曾经发生过的洪水导致的伤亡事件，由此可推知，第四段主要是提供一些背景信息，故选B。 11．推理判断题。根据最后一段Hebert所说的话“The water has got to go somewhere no matter how many levee systems are built. We can’t just keep moving it from person to person, place to place.(不管建造多少堤坝系统，水总要流到某个地方。我们不能一直把它从一个人转移到另一个地方)”可知，虽然人们一直在修建防洪堤，但这并不是完美且及时的解决问题，人们不能一直搬迁，由此可推知，防洪堤并不是解决洪水问题的最佳选择，故选A。 D篇 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，本文以角蝉为例，详细地说明了动物间交流的声音。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“University of Missouri biologist Rex Cocroft has spent much of his time listening closely to tree-hoppers with his team. (密苏里大学的生物学家Rex Cocroft花了很多时间和他的团队密切关注角蝉。)”和倒数第二段“Cocroft said tree-hoppers have very sensitive legs. And they stand around on stems, which are good at spreading vibrations. So they just use what nature gives them to communicate with each other. (Cocroft说，角蝉的腿非常敏感。它们站在茎上，茎善于传播振动。所以它们只是用大自然赋予它们的东西来相互交流。)”可推断，Cocroft主要研究角蝉间的交流，故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Cocroft said tree-hoppers have very sensitive legs. And they stand around on stems, which are good at spreading vibrations. So they just use what nature gives them to communicate with each other. (Cocroft说，角蝉的腿非常敏感。它们站在茎上，茎善于传播振动。所以它们只是用大自然赋予它们的东西来相互交流。)”可知，角蝉通过腿感知声音，故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘They have so many different forms of social behavior and grouping,’ Cocroft explained. ‘And once there are animals living in groups, then there will be all sorts of interesting possibilities for communication.’ (‘它们有很多不同形式的社会行为和群体，’Cocroft解释说。‘一旦有动物群居生活，那么就会有各种有趣的交流可能性。’)”可知，动物的群居有利于它们的交流，故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Animals, including humans, feel sound as well as hear it, and some of the most meaningful communication happens at frequencies (频率) that people can’t hear. (包括人类在内的动物不仅能听到声音，还能感觉到声音，而且一些最有意义的交流发生在人们听不到的频率上。)”可知，本文以角蝉为例，详细地说明了动物间交流的声音，故选D。 七选五 【答案】16. C 17. F 18. B 19. G 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了结交新朋友的重要方法。 【16题详解】 根据标题下“A bookstore is a great place to get to know people with a true sense of curiosity. Meeting new people in the bookstore is lovely because your conversations have depth.(书店是认识真正有好奇心的人的好地方。在书店结识新朋友是件很可爱的事，因为你们的谈话很有深度。)”可知，本段讲的是去书店结交新朋友。C项“Go to the bookstore(去书店)”符合语境。故选C项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“You can talk about the different stories you’ve read.(你可以谈论你读过的不同的故事。)”可知，你们能够谈论读过的故事。F项“And you can share your ideas about reading and books, too.(你也可以分享你关于阅读和书籍的想法。)符合语境。故选F项。 【18题详解】 根据小标题“Go traveling(去旅行)”可知建议通过旅行结交新朋友，下文“you explore different places, and create positive memories while meeting new people from different cultures.(你探索不同的地方，在结识来自不同文化背景的新朋友的同时创造积极的记忆。)”也是旅行时会发生的事情，旅行能够让我们结识到不同文化背景的朋友。B项“When you travel (当你旅行时)”符合语境。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据小标题“Attend a music festival(参加音乐节)”可知建议去音乐节结交朋友，前文“In this way, you really can’t escape meeting new people since you’re surrounded by hundreds or even thousands of people in one place, enjoying the live music.(这样，你真的无法逃避结识新朋友，因为你被数百甚至数千人包围在一个地方，享受现场音乐。)”以及后文“There’s a big chance that the people you meet in this event are connections you’ll remember even after it ends. If the event is several days long, you might notice that you go out with those strangers for a couple of days. After the event, you might choose to stay in touch.(你在这次活动中遇到的人很有可能是你在活动结束后仍会记得的朋友。如果活动持续几天，你可能会注意到你会和那些陌生人一起出去好几天。活动结束后，你可能会选择保持联系。)”可知，空格处是想说音乐也能给我们带来持久的友谊。G项“The excitement of music festivals can create lasting friendships(音乐节的兴奋可以创造持久的友谊)”符合语境。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“You can take a course such as learning a skill.(你可以参加一门课程，比如学习一项技能。)”以及后文“you gain knowledge and a skill, and you get to socialize with a new set of people.(你获得了知识和技能，你可以和一群新的人交往。)”可知，上课也是结交朋友的一种方式，D项“By taking a course you’re interested in(通过选修你感兴趣的课程)”。故选D项。 完形填空 【答案】21.

One of the park highlights is the Zion Canyons, which offers different hiking (远足) opportunities. Late spring or early fall is the best time to visit Zion National Park, since most facilities are open during this time. However, if you don’t mind cold weather, visit during the late fall and winter. Bryce Canyon National Park It’s home to the greatest number of hoodoos (石林) on earth, which are one of the natural wonders of the world. You can see most of Bryce Canyon’s highlights in one day by taking the scenic drive and making stops at various views. Most people visit the park between May and September since the weather is warmer. Canyonlands National Park Although it’s the 23rd largest National Park in the US, Canyonlands is the largest out of the four national parks in Utah. The best time of the year to visit is when the weather is pleasant in the spring and fall. The park has four main parts: The Maze, Island in the Sky, The Needles, and Horseshoe Canyon. If you plan to visit every part, you can go on a boat tour to explore it. Arches National Park Known as a red-rock wonderland, Arches National Park is popular for its stone arches (石拱).The park has over 2,000 stone arches, with Landscape Arch the largest. The park is busiest from March through October. However, the spring and fall temperatures are the most comfortable. So, the best time to visit is April, May, September and October. 1. When is the best time to visit Zion National Park? A. Late spring. B. Early summer. C. Late fall. D. Early winter. 2. What is special about Canyonlands National Park? A. It features hike programs. B. It is known for stone arches. C. It is the largest one in Utah. D. It requires advance bookings. 3. What can you do in Arches National Park? A. Take a journey down a river. B. Explore the Zion Canyons. C. Tour Island in the Sky. D. Admire the red rock. B William Lindesay, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋)—these are the day-to-day must-haves for the family. Most of their trips seem far from relaxing—cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow. Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Lindesay says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible. Lindesay mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us, everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.” However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children’s schooling. Wu remembers once Lindesay let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time. Lindesay attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says. 4．How can we describe the Lindesays’ trips? A．Pleasant. B．Challenging. C．relaxing. D．Dangerous. 5．What does the underlined word “eschew” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Avoid. B．Visit. C．Compare. D．Evaluate. 6．What problem does the family meet when traveling? A．They suffer from a tight budget. B．They have scheduling conflicts. C．They are faced with language barriers. D．They hold different educational ideas. 7．Which statement may Lindesay agree with according to the text? A．Nothing is so necessary for travelers as languages. B．There is no royal road to learning. C．Actions speak louder than words. D．Man who travels far knows more. C The levees (防洪堤) that protect New Orleans held up against Hurricane Ida’s fury (猛烈), passing their first big test since Hurricane Katrina that struck 16 years ago. The government spent billions of dollars to upgrade the city’s levee system which had failed before Katrina. But the effort couldn’t spare some neighboring communities from Ida’s terrible storm surge (风暴潮). Many people living in LaPlace, located 25 miles west of New Orleans, had to be rescued from rising floodwaters. Marcie Jacob Hebert ran away before Ida. But she has no doubt that the storm flooded her LaPlace home. Her house didn’t flood during Katrina. But it took on nearly two feet of water during Hurricane Isaac in 2012. “We didn’t have these problems until everybody else’s levees worked,” said Hebert, 46. “It may not be the only cause, but I sure do think it makes a difference.” Gov. John Bel Edwards said a recent survey of levees across Louisiana showed they did exactly what they were for and held the water out. “We don’t believe there is a single levee anywhere now that actually broke or failed. There were only a few smaller levees in New Orleans that failed,” Edwards said. After Katrina, the government spent $14.5 billion on projects designed to improve protection from storm surge and flooding in New Orleans and nearby areas. The system is a 130-mile ring built to hold out storm surge of about 30 feet. In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina produced a storm surge that flooded about four-fifths of the city, causing over 1,800 deaths. Work recently began on a levee project to protect LaPlace and other communities outside New Orleans’ levee system. That project will be completed in 2024. “I’m glad they’re building us a levee, but I worry about what happens to the next group further to the west,” Hebert said. “The water has got to go somewhere no matter how many levee systems are built. We can’t just keep moving it from person to person, place to place.” 8．What is the reason for the flooding in LaPlace according to Hebert? A．Heavy rainfall. B．Weather change. C．Levees breaking. D．Nearby levees. 9．What does Edwards think of the flood protection system in New Orleans? A．It costs too much. B．It may cause danger. C．It is generally satisfying. D．It badly needs improvements. 10．What does the author want to do in paragraph 4? A．Provide some helpful suggestions. B．Offer some background information. C．Introduce a new topic for discussion. D．Discuss the causes of the problem. 11．Which of the following would Hebert most probably agree with? A．Levees cannot completely solve the problem. B．Some locals had better move away from LaPlace. C．The levee project in LaPlace won’t be finished on time. D．It is a mistake to build a levee system for locals in LaPlace. D Animals, including humans, feel sound as well as hear it, and some of the most meaningful communication happens at frequencies (频率) that people can’t hear. Elephants, for example, use these low-frequency sounds to, among other things, find family or a mate across long distances. Whales do it, too. But you don’t have to weigh a ton to make a sound. In fact, you don’t have to be bigger than a pea. Consider, for example, the tree-hopper(角蝉), a curious little animal that lives on the stems (茎) of the leaves. University of Missouri biologist Rex Cocroft has spent much of his time listening closely to tree-hoppers with his team. The team discovers that all the sounds being heard from tree-hoppers are produced by males. They do it by vibrating (振动) their abdomens (腹部) to make a wide variety of strange sounds. There is almost no airborne sound produced with these vibrational sounds. Cocroft explained, “If a tree-hopper were to stand on your finger and produce a sound, you would feel the vibration but hear no sound.” They showed that some sounds, not surprisingly, seem to be aimed at attracting females. And some are aimed at other males. Cocroft explained, “When two males meet each other, or when they are mate-searching on a branch, we’re hearing ‘purring, bdddddrrrr…’ sounds that males give.” Normally, a person couldn’t hear any of this, because the sound travels along the stem, inside it. And that’s how other tree-hoppers detect it. Cocroft said tree-hoppers have very sensitive legs. And they stand around on stems, which are good at spreading vibrations. So they just use what nature gives them to communicate with each other. “They have so many different forms of social behavior and grouping,” Cocroft explained. “And once there are animals living in groups, then there will be all sorts of interesting possibilities for communication.” 12. What does Cocroft’s research focus on about tree-hoppers? A. Their variety. B. Their communication. C. Their living areas. D. Their numbers. 13. What can we know about tree-hoppers? A. They sense sounds by legs. B. They knock the stems to make sounds. C. Their sounds can be easily heard by humans. D. Females make sounds to meet each other 14. What does Cocroft say about animals’ living in groups? A. It is key to their survival. B. It drives an increase in their numbers. C. It often leads to communication. D. It contributes much to the division of animal types. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. A Magic Moment in Nature B. A Journey to the Wildlife C. Learning From Nature D. Communication Sounds Among Animals 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。 If you are struggling with social anxiety, and don’t know how to find good friends, you can use the following important ways to meet new people. ____16____ A bookstore is a great place to get to know people with a true sense of curiosity.

She was curious about everything. She made efforts to get a good grade in every subject. She was a kind-hearted and outgoing girl. At school, she was always ready to help her classmates. At home, she helped her mum do some housework. She was never a concern to her mum, Mrs. Anderson. However, Mrs. Anderson noticed a change in Cynthia these days. There were more quiet moments. Mrs. Anderson saw Cynthia looking out of the window, lost in thought. She also learned from her teacher that Cynthia wasn’t as focused on school as before. A sense of worry rose in Mrs. Anderson’s heart and she wondered about what was behind Cynthia’s unusual behavior. Before going to bed, she started talking with Cynthia, asking about her day. However, Cynthia just said that nothing in particular happened. Mrs. Anderson’s concern grew. She decided to keep a closer eye, hoping to uncover the challenges her daughter might be facing. One day, while cleaning up Cynthia’s bedroom, Mrs. Anderson discovered something unexpected — on her desk lay some books on how to treat injured birds. It was quite surprising. Cynthia had never told her about this. It also amazed Mrs. Anderson. She had a deep love for nature and birds and she could always find inspiration in their freedom and the beauty of their songs. She couldn’t help but wonder what had inspired her daughter’s newfound interest in birds. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； ( The next morning, Mrs. Anderson saw Cynthia walking quietly into the backyard with a first aid kit in hand. _____________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Anderson couldn’t help but walk out. ___________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ )2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 ( 4 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$麦盖提县第五中学2024年9月份月考试卷（新高考Ⅱ卷） 英语·答题卡 姓 名： 班 级： 考场号： 缺考 标记 财条形码区 座位名： ▣ 准考证号 0 0 0 0 00 0 0 0 注意事项 1 1 1 1 L.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，并 2 2 2 2 22 2 2 2 认真检查监考员所粘贴的条形码。 3 3 3 3 3 3 33 3 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须用0.5 黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3.请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出答题区域范围 5 55 5 5 5 55 5 的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 66 6 666 6 6 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂 改液、刮纸刀。 7 > 7 7 7 7 7 7 > 5.正确填涂 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 选择题（请用2B铅笔填涂） 1 6 16 EFG 23 EFG 13 18 EFG 1 EFG 5 10 15 EFG 27 24 29 3 2 非选择题 (请在各试题的答题区内作答) 第三部分语言知识运用（共两节， 满分45分) 第二节（共10小题：每小题15分，满分15分） 36. 37. 38. 39 40 41 42. 43. 44 45 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ ■英语第1页（共2页） 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 第四部分写作（共两节满分40分） 第一节应用文（满分15分） Dear Peter, Yours, Li Hua 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 英语第2页（共2页） ■ ■ ■ ■英语第1页（共2页） ■ A篇 1.

Hearing that you need to learn something about the Mid-Autumn Festival, I'm glad to offer some help. As we all know, The Mid-Autumn Festival is regarded as the most significant festival for our Chinese people and it is a symbol of family reunion for us. The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on August 15th according to the Chinese lunar calendar. People celebrate it for autumn harvest. Besides, people in China will hold a variety of activities, such as admiring the full moon, enjoying tasty moon cakes and so on. So much for the information about the festival. I'm sure you can make it in the competition, Good luck to you! Yours, Li Hua 读后续写 Paragraph 1: The next morning, Mrs. Anderson saw Cynthia walking quietly into the backyard with a first aid kit in hand. She was careful as she approached a small bird, which lay still on the ground, its wings folded tightly against its body. Cynthia gently picked up the bird and examined it carefully, then began to apply some salve to its wounds. Mrs. Anderson realized that Cynthia had been secretly nursing injured birds back to health. She felt a sense of pride wash over her as she watched her daughter, who had always been so kind and helpful. Paragraph 2: Mrs. Anderson couldn’t help but walk out. She approached Cynthia and asked, “What are you doing, dear?” “I found this bird injured in the yard and I’m trying to help it,” she replied. Mrs. Anderson smiled and sat down beside her daughter. She knew that Cynthia’s love for birds was a reflection of her own kind heart and that she was simply following in her mother’s footsteps. They sat there for a while, mother, and daughter, lost in the beauty of the moment. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
