Being a popular tourist destination, thousands of people come to explore the beauty of the Eiffel Tower every day. The day of your visit Each e - ticket bears the name of its owner. Remember to bring ID for all of your group, including children. We may ask to see your ID, as well as any supporting documents for reduced rates （disability registration）. Make sure you check the time on your e - ticket. This is the time when you need to be on the esplanade, in a queue for “visitors with tickets”. We recommend arriving 15 minutes in advance so that you have time to make it through the security checks at the entrance. Eiffel tower ticket prices Ticket with lift — Second floor Adults Youths （aged 12-24） Children （aged 4-11） Children （under 4） 18.80€ 9.40€ 4.70€ 0.00€ Ticket with lift — The top floor Adults Youths （aged 12-24） Children （aged 4-11） Children （under 4） 29.40€ 14.70€ 7.40€ 0.00€ All the prices can be found on the e - tickets. Carry minimal belongings The Eiffel Tower does not have a locker room, so you will have to carry your belongings with you during the entirety of your visit. When you are caught in awe, it’s easy for eagle-eyed opportunists to do their tricks. Be mindful and carry minimal belongings such as your wallet, tickets, ID proof, and a water bottle. There is no left-luggage facility for non-permitted items, like wheeled suitcases, large luggage, non-folding buggies (童车) at the Eiffel Tower. 21．Which of the following may not be shown on the e- ticket?

D．Folding buggies are not allowed. B Mathematics has an image problem: too many people stumble over it and conclude that the subject is just not for them. But the core problems I suppose is how maths is presented as cold and dry. I have a different approach which is to relate abstract maths to questions of politics and social justice. I have taught fairly maths-phobic art students in this way and have seen their attitudes transformed. They now embrace maths and even believe it can genuinely assist them. At a basic level, maths is founded on logic, so when I am teaching logic, I use examples from contemporary events rather than the old-fashioned type of problem. Instead of studying the logic of a statement like “all dogs have four legs”, I might discuss the statement like “___________”. However, rather than sticking to this type of dry mathematical example, I introduce issues like privilege and wealth — If someone has a higher status, are they automatically wealthier? We can also ask about working hours and income: if someone works more hours, do they necessarily earn more? The answer is clearly not. My approach is controversial because, traditionally, maths is supposed to be neutral. I have been criticized by people claiming my approach will be annoying to those who don’t care about social justice. However, the dry approach is also off-putting to those who do care. Sometimes, such society-oriented questions may benefit the well-rounded development of the students. In fact, I believe that all academic disciplines should address our most important issues. I don’t demand that students agree with me about politics, but I do ask that they construct thorough arguments to back up their thoughts and develop the crucial ability to analyze the logic of people they disagree with. Maths isn’t just about numbers and equations (方程式); it is about studying different logical systems. We can apply it to balls rolling down different hills, but we can also apply it to pressing social issues. I think we should do both, for the sake of society and to be more inclusive towards different types of students in maths education. 24．What is the author’s main argument on the teaching of mathematics? A．Mathematics should be taken more seriously. B．The traditional approach needs to be revised. C．Students should have their personalized methods. D．A focus on everyday applications of mathematics is proposed. 25．Which of the following is the likely statement for the blank in the third paragraph? A．All cats are mammals. B．No hard workers are losers. C．Most immigrants are illegal. D．No students like mathematics. 26．How does the author respond to the criticism? A．He compromises by emphasizing his teaching goals. B．He dismisses it as irrelevant to his teaching approach. C．He admits that maths should be non-political and solely focus on numbers. D．He believes discussion of social issues is necessary for a well-rounded education. 27．What skill does the author hope his students should gain? A．Quick and accurate equation-solving. B．Using math concepts across various fields. C．Developing logical arguments to support their viewpoints. D．Working together to build a more inclusive society. C Joseph Dituri hasn’t seen the sun for two fortnights. And he won’t see it again for months. Since March 1st, the professor has been underwater, with the goal of spending 100 days there-for science. If successful, he will break the current world record for time spent living underwater, which was set by two Tennessee biologists in 2014 when they stayed beneath the surface for 73 days. Dituri, who has been nicknamed “Dr. Deep Sea”, is living in Jules’ Undersea Lodge (小屋) in Key Largo, Florida-the same underwater venue where the previous record was set. The 100-square-foot hotel, which sits 30 feet below the surface, is his temporary home, where he is carrying out research and giving virtual lectures for his students at the University of South Florida. “The human body has never been underwater that long, so I will be monitored closely,” Dituri said. “This study will examine every way this journey impacts my body, but my hypothesis (假设) is that there will be improvements to my health due to the increased pressure.” This hypothesis comes from a study that indicated potentially positive effects of pressure exposure on cell growth and vitality, and Dituri hopes that his underwater experience could reveal ways to combat age-related diseases and lengthen lifespan. As part of his research, Dituri is investigating the effects of living in a high-pressure environment for an extended period. To keep water from entering the lodge, air must constantly be pumped into the space to create a pressure about 1.6 times higher than that of the Earth’s surface. Therefore, it can’t be achieved in his own right. Before the journey, Dituri had undergone psychosocial, psychological and medical tests. He continues to undergo testing during and after his 100 days at the lodge. “The mental health part of this is important, because I’m in an isolated and limited environment,” he said. Beyond research, the project is also a chance to cultivate children’s enthusiasm for exploring the science field. Dituri invites about 40 children to stay with him for 24 hours at a time and teach them to dive. To him, this outreach is what makes the whole project worth it-more than the chance for a world record. 28. What is the primary objective of Joseph Dituri's underwater experiment? A. To break the world record for underwater living. B. To study the effects of pressure on human health. C. To promote awareness of marine conservation. D. To explore marine life in Key Largo. 29. How does Dituri feel about the potential health benefits of increased pressure during his underwater stay? A. Skeptical. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent. 30. Which of the following activities is Dituri likely to engage in while living underwater? A. Hosting an underwater banquet. B. Conducting virtual lectures for students. C. Examining samples collected from the ocean. D. Restoring the underwater lodge facilities. 31. What is the main reason for Dituri to invite children to spend time with him underwater? A. To enhance his research experience. B. To relieve his feelings of solitude. C. To inspire their interest in science and exploration. D. To show the benefits of living underwater. D Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie-in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze, you lose. Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”. Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues. Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly. Efforts to change your circadian rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5— and why they ought to have break rooms. 32．Why does the writer mention the survey in paragraph 1? A．To illustrate the harmful effects of snoozing. B．To praise the healthy sleeping habit of the CEOs. C．To tell the difference between CEOs and average workers. D．To show the possible link between early rising and success. 33．What does paragraph 2 focus on? A．The feelings of early risers. B．The challenges of a workday. C．The benefits of getting up early. D．The preparations before work. 34．What can be a downside of being an early bird? A．Poor public image. B．Increased workload. C．Huge social pressure. D．Decreased productivity. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Why Do CEOs Prefer Early Mornings? B．How Can We Change Our Body Clock? C．What Is the Science Behind Early Rising? D．Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl? 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。 Even though food itself is not the problem, developing a healthier relationship with it is essential to eating disorder recovery. Most people with eating disorders struggle with issues of control when it comes to food—often shaking between rigidity and chaos. 36 Let go of rigid eating rules. 37 Therefore, it's important to replace them with healthier ones. For example, if you have a rule forbidding all desserts, change it into a less rigid guideline such as "I won't eat dessert every day". You won't gain weight by enjoying an occasional ice cream or cookie. Don't diet. The more you restrict food, the more likely it is that you'll become preoccupied (专注的) with it, and even addicted to it. So instead of focusing on what you "shouldn't" eat, focus on nutritious foods that will energize you and make your body strong. 38 Afterwards, you can eat when you're truly hungry, then stop when you're full. 39 You may be used to skipping meals or fasting for long stretches. But when you starve yourself, food becomes all you think about. To avoid this preoccupation, make sure to eat every three hours. Plan ahead for meals and snacks, and don't skip! Learn to listen to your body. If you have an eating disorder, you've learned to ignore your body's hunger and fullness signals. 40 The goal is to get back in touch with these internal cues. A．Don't ignore your health. B．The goal is to find a balance. C．The best way is to lose weight. D．Stick to a regular eating schedule. E．You may not even recognize them anymore. F．You should think of food as fuel for your body first. G．Strict rules about food and eating fuel eating disorders. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节（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 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I was in Chicago for a job training when I knew a nearby theatre was releasing a film about saving dogs. However, none of my co-workers could 41 time for me. I got cold feet for anxiety about 42 the streets by myself at night alone. But in my hotel room I felt 43 and bored. The theatre was only about five blocks away from the hotel. How could I get lost? Hence, I decided to 44 it. I gathered my room key and set off.

I hurried into the theatre. As I sat there, heart racing, 48 the film, I muttered a prayer to 49 my anxieties. A local blues-rock band was the opening 50 and their performance drew my attention. Enthusiasm for the band’s performance soon 51 all my worries from my mind and I began to relax. After the band, the film began and I understood the presence of the bikers after a conversation with the staff. Being part of an animal rescue group, they had escorted (护送) dogs from New Jersey to Chicago. At that moment, I was struck by the bond that had drawn so many originally 52 folks to the same spot. I stayed till the very end and made it to my hotel without any incident, overjoyed that I broke out of the 53 I used to set for myself and ventured into the 54 . To my amazement, the 55 was one of the best nights of my life. 41．A．occupy B．squeeze C．search D．appoint 42．A．exploring B．checking C．sweeping D．missing 43．A．graceless B．careless C．restless D．tireless 44．A．brave B．discard C．forget D．attend 45．A．well-educated B．good-looking C．well-behaved D．tough-looking 46．A．soaked B．sank C．stopped D．jumped 47．A．misled B．misread C．estimated D．emphasized 48．A．accomplishingB．stimulating C．anticipating D．constructing 49．A．contain B．comfort C．strengthen D．tighten 50．A．option B．act C．side D．court 51．A．took away B．picked up C．touched off D．tore down 52．A．natural B．cooperative C．distinct D．similar 53．A．definition B．imagination C．circulation D．boundary 54．A．interpersonal B．unimportant C．unknown D．interactive 55．A．soulmate B．reward C．spirit D．talent 第二节（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填人 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 An unexpected Chinese presence, the Chinese steamed buns, known as mantou in Chinese, made an appearance at La Fête du pain, the annual bread festival held in front of the Notre Dames (圣母院), Paris, from May 7 to May 16.

One afternoon this July, it rained heavily. He was driving along the busiest section of the highway during the downpour when he saw the traffic slowing down in front of him. Some cars stopped and bypassed one lane (车道). Willis initially thought there was a car crash, so he slowed down his car to approach. But he soon found out the source of the delay was an animal wandering on the wet road. And he spotted that was a dog when he got close enough. There was a large dog that looked like a brown German shepherd (牧羊犬) in the middle lane. The weather was at its worst, and the gray sky with the heavy rain gave the highway minimum visibility. The delay might cause a traffic jam and of course it was very dangerous to let the dog wandering in the middle of the highway. He immediately turned on his blue lights because people usually slow down when they see the blue lights and called into the radio so they knew where he was. He pulled over, got out , and whistled to draw the dog's attention. It seemed as if the dog knew Willis was its lifesaver. It walked to Willis and his car.Once the dog was in the car, Willis pulled into a parking lot nearby, where he called Petworks Animal Service. While waiting, he noticed the dog wearing a collar with its name “Luna”. Willis recorded a short video of the dog. Then an animal control officer came and took Luna to the shelter. Willis came back to work. Watching cars travelling on the highway through the window glass, he thought he might do something to let the dog's owner know their pet was found safe. 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。 After work, Willis posted the video online with a brief description attached. _________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Days later, news came that Luna's owner had been found and would visit him. ______ __________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第 1 页 共 11 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 高三英语双周练参考答案2024.11.2 听力：1-5 BAACB 6-10 ABCAC 11-15 ABCCB 16-20 AABCB 阅读理解：21-23 CDA 24-27 BCDC 28-31 BCBC 32-35 DCBD 七选五：36-40 BGFDE 完形：41-45 BACAD 46-50 DBCAB 51-55 ACDCB 语法填空： 56．was placed 57．a 58．that/which 59．competition 60．steamed 61．Alternatively 62．its 63．as 64．regions 65．being 应用文： Dear Ryan, I hope this email finds you well. I’m Li Hua from Class 3, and I’m writing to discuss the B grade I received for my recent assignment. While I appreciate your feedback, I genuinely believe that my work deserves an A grade. There are two main reasons for my request. Firstly, my assignment met all the requirements listed in the instructions. I invested a significant amount of effort and time, conducting thorough research to ensure that every aspect was addressed. Secondly, my work not only presented innovative ideas but also included well-structured arguments, all conveyed in a clear and coherent format, free of errors. Given these factors, I would greatly appreciate it if you could reconsider my grade. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response. Best regards, Li Hua 读后续写： After work, Willis posted the video online with a brief description attached. He wrote about how he found Luna wandering on the highway during the heavy rain and how she was now safe at the Petworks Animal Service. He also included the contact information of the shelter, hoping that Luna’s owner would see the post and come forward. The video quickly gained attention, with many people sharing it and expressing their gratitude for Willis’s actions. Days later, news came that Luna’s owner had been found and would visit him. Willis received a call from the shelter informing him that Luna’s owner had seen the video and was overjoyed to know that Luna was safe. The owner, a woman named Sarah, had been desperately searching for Luna for days. When she arrived at the shelter, she was reunited with Luna, who greeted her with excited barks and wagging tail. Sarah thanked Willis profusely for his kindness and quick thinking. Willis felt a deep sense of satisfaction knowing he had helped reunite a lost pet with its owner. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了巡逻警察Willis在暴雨中发现一只在高速公路上徘徊的狗，并将其送到动物收容所后，通过社交媒体发布视频帮助狗找到主人的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“下班后，Willis在网上发布了这段视频，并附上了简短的描述。”可知，第一段可描写Willis在网上发布一些具体的细节且受到了人们的关注。 ②由第二段首句内容“几天后，消息传来，卢娜的主人已经找到，并将探望他。”可知，第二段可描写狗主人找狗的过程以及狗见到主人时的开心，狗主人对Willis表示了感谢。 2.续写线索：发布信息——具体描述——找到狗主人——狗狗开心——感谢警官 听力文字稿： 1．B 【原文】W: Mark, I have to apologize to you. I’m sorry. I just broke your Chinese pot. M: My precious Chinese pot? Oh, no! How did it happen? 2．A 【原文】W: Oh, dear, come on in. You must be tired! M: Yes. I’ve been travelling for the past week and I need to get some sleep. W: Just sit down and I’ll get you a drink first. 3．A 【原文】W: Dad, my friends invited me to a party tonight. It will end at about 9:00 pm. Is that OK? M: Alright, but you need to call me if you need a ride or anything? W: I will. Thanks, Dad! 4．C 【原文】W: You are covered in paint! What have you been doing? M: I’ve been redecorating the bathroom. I’ve painted the door and the ceiling, but I haven’t put up the wallpaper yet. W: I will help you with that. 5．B 【原文】W: What will you have? How about fish and chips? M: I think I’ll just have a drink. W: You should have more than that. It’s been hours since we finished lunch. What about a sandwich? M: Um, if they have salad, I will have some. 6．A 7．B 【原文】W: Joe, how long have you been going to that private gym? M: Oh, it’s been two years. I used to be unfit. My doctor told me I had to get myself in better shape and suggest dieting. Well, even though I cut down on what I ate, I still didn’t feel particularly healthy, so I decided to join this gym. W: How do you feel now? M: I feel great, you know, totally relaxed. It’s a small price to pay for feeling good about yourself. Now, I can’t imagine my life without my twice-weekly classes at the gym. 8．C 9．A 【原文】M: Hey, Emma, I didn’t expect to run into you here! W: Oh, hi, Jason! Yeah, I come here a lot to study. It’s the quietest place on campus, and there’s a great selection of books too. What’s up, by the way? M: Well, actually, I’ve started a swimming club, and I was thinking maybe you’d like to become the vice-president of the club. W: Wait, What? Me as vice-president? I don’t know if I’m qualified for that. M: I think you are! W: Well, listen, I really appreciate the offer, but why don’t you have a little competition among all the members to decide who should be the vice-president? It’ll be 100% fair and fun. M: Hmm, that’s actually a fantastic idea! Would you help me organize it? W: Certainly. We can get in touch with everyone first and then start planning the details... 10．C 11．A 12．B 【原文】W: Do you know what time you’ll be back this evening? M: I’m not sure. It depends on how long the interview lasts. Oh, dear, I hope it goes well. I know I can do the job. It’s just getting that across to them. W: Just relax. Remember, you’ve got to convince them that they need you. And you’re not going to do that if you are in a state. There are many slices of toast in the kitchen. Have some more. It’ll make you feel much better. What time’s your appointment? M: At 2:30. W: Make sure you have a proper lunch. More coffee? M: Another cup of coffee sounds great, thanks, darling. W: One more thing, don’t get there too early or you’ll have to hang around. M: Thank you for the support. I’ll manage OK, I’m sure. 13．C 14．C 15．B 16．A 【原文】M: So Sally, how did you become a radio reporter? W: well, I studied Communication Studies at university. When I graduated, I took the first job I was offered. But being a marketing assistant was just too far from what I wanted — I’d always considered training as a DJ. Meanwhile, my friends had more interesting jobs than me. One was even working as a manager for a rock band. That’s what pushed me to quit my job and call my cousin, who was a radio presenter in Brighton. M: What happened then? W: I arranged to sit in on his show for a week, and that confirmed my passion for radio. After that, I approached the boss of the station, Eric Johnson. I convinced him to offer me a place on their Trainee Course, from which I learnt a lot — I got to do traffic reports on air, background research about musicians, and even live interviews. M: That sounds like a very rewarding experience! W: Yeah. The only downside was the four days I spent working at the station each week were unpaid.
