However, he came across the continent rather accidentally while taking what he thought was a shortcut from Europe to Asia. Despite others landing there first, Columbus made Europeans more aware of this New World, leading to increased contact between the lands and ultimately the development of the modern Western world. Ferdinand Magellan Portuguese (1480—1521) Ferdinand Magellan had a dream:to visit the Maluku Islands. Magellan set off with five ships and more than 200 men, heading west via South America. Unaware how vast the Pacific was, they faced great challenges and many died. The remaining crew reached the islands, where Magellan was shot with a poisoned arrow in a fight with Mactan people, and died in 1521. Only one ship and 18 men from Magellan’s crew made it back to Spain. Francis Drake English (1540—1596) On becoming a ship’s captain in his 20s, Francis Drake was on his way to fulfilling his dream of finding an undiscovered land in the Pacific. Drake’s travels took him to the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico before finally starting a secret expedition to the western coast of North America. His circumnavigation (环球航行) helped identify the true geography of our planet. Roald Amundsen Norwegian (1872—1928) His heart set on exploring the Arctic, Roald Amundsen quit university and began his adventures via land, sea and air, first sailing through the Northwest Passage. Beaten to the North Pole, Amundsen was determined to be the first to reach the South Pole, and he was. Subsequently crossing the Arctic by air, Amundsen became one of the greatest polar explorers. 1. Who contributed to the first continuous contact between Europe and America? A. Christopher Columbus. B. Ferdinand Magellan. C. Francis Drake. D. Roald Amundsen. 2. When did the explorer shot with a poisoned arrow die? A. In 1506. B. In 1521. C. In 1596. D. In 1928. 3. What was Roald Amundsen’s achievement? A. He was the first to explore the Arctic. B. He was the first man to reach the North Pole. C. He was the first man to reach the South Pole. D. He was the first to sail through the Northeast Passage. B On the day he almost died, Kimbal Musk had food on the brain. The Internet startup talent and restaurateur had just arrived in Jackson Hole from a conference where chef Jamie Oliver had spoken about the benefits of healthy eating. This was something Musk thought about a lot- how he might make a difference to the food industry—but beyond expanding his farm-to-table movement along with his restaurant, Musk hadn’t yet broken the code. Then he went sailing down a snowy slope (坡) and fell over, breaking his neck. The left side of his body was paralyzed. Musk eventually made a full recovery, but it involved spending two months on his back, which gave him plenty of time to come up with a plan. Since then, he has launched an initiative to put “learning gardens” in public schools across America; attracted Generation Z to the farming profession by changing shipping containers into high-tech, data-driven, year-round farms; and this year, is kicking off a new campaign to create one million at-home gardens. Aimed at reaching low- income families, the Million Gardens Movement was inspired by the pandemic, as both a desire to feel more connected to nature and food insecurity have been at the forefront of so many people’s lives. “We were getting a lot of inquiries about gardening from people that had never gardened before,” says Musk. “People were looking to garden for a bunch of reasons: to supplement their budget, to improve the nutritional quality of their diets, or just to cure the boredom that came with the lockdown.” The program offers free garden kits that can be grown indoors or outdoors, and will be distributed through schools that Musk's non-profit, Big Green, has already partnered with. It also offers free courses on how to get the garden growing and fresh seeds and materials for the changing growing seasons. “I grew up in the projects when I was young, in what we now call food deserts,” says EVE, one of the many celebrities who have teamed up with the organization to encourage people to pick up a free garden. “What I love about this is that it's not difficult. We are all able to grow something.” 4. What inspired Musk to be devoted to food industry? A. An accident. B. Jamie Oliver’s speech. C. The pandemic. D. The farm-to-table movement. 5. What can we learn about the Million Gardens Movement? A. It has mainly attracted young generations. B. It has just accomplished its target. C It may be stimulated by a lack of food security. D. It increases economic burdens for the poor. 6. Which of the following best describes Musk? A. Charitable. B. Honest. C. Flexible. D. Strict. 7. Why is EVE taken as an example? A. To demonstrate the program to be non-profit. B. To share his experience in a food desert. C. To encourage people to start a free garden. D. To clarify the reason why he loves a garden. C Technology use seems to be the new wave of addiction hitting people of all ages. Its extreme use can be compared to the use of drugs, which is called Plug-in Heroin. The next time you’re in a crowded public place, look at the people around you. It’s hard to find someone who isn’t glued to the tiny screen, fingers moving at lightning speeds, texting their friends, emailing co-workers or listening to music. It may seem ridiculous that someone is that addicted to such a small object. I’ve seen people who seem to be at their wits’ end if their phone or iPad has been taken away, lost or left at home. Some people may ask, “What’s wrong with technology use? It’s a way for people to communicate.” While this is true, the overuse of technology isn’t always appropriate in certain settings. Schools are becoming stricter about the use of cell phones, iPads and other electronics in classrooms. Various workplaces have signs hanging on their walls warning employees that “Cell phone use is not permitted” or “Cell phones are forbidden.” Electronics may be a way for people to communicate and stay in touch with each other, but the disadvantages may outweigh the benefits. People are losing the ability to hold face-to-face conversations with others. However, it’s hard to avoid electronics in this day and age because almost everything is turning into an electronic format. Books, originally meant for paper design, are now being transferred (转存) to electronic forms. Photo albums, and even yearbooks, can now be viewed via the internet. With this growing trend, future generations are bound to become even more addicted to technology. Is there a cure for electronic addiction? Simply turning electronics off for an hour or two a day may help to an extent, but it will not completely rid electronic addiction. There only seems to be one cure left, and it may be the hardest: self control. 8. What is Plug-in Heroin? A. The growing popularity of electronics. B. The unreasonable dependence on electronics. C. The future possibility of technology development. D. The serious consequences of technology use. 9. The underlined phrase “at their wits’ end” in the 2nd paragraph probably means . A. Exhausted. B. Confused. C. Lost. D. Surprised. 10. Why is it difficult to avoid electronics nowadays? A. Too many things are available in electronic forms. B. The design of paper books is less interesting. C. It is a must to use electronics to keep in touch. D. Fewer choices are left for communication. 11. In the author’s opinion, what is the best way to cure electronic addiction? A. Turn off the electronics for one or two hours. B. Limit the use of electronic devices in classrooms. C. Learn to control yourself over the use of electronics. D. Cell phones should be forbidden in the workplaces. D Lisa Gautier receives nearly a dozen parcels of human hair every day. With her San-Francisco-based non-profit organization Matter of Trust, Gautier turns donated hair into mats used to soak up oil spills on land, and booms(long tubes)used for spills at sea. A standard way to clean up oil from land is to use mats made from polypropylene(聚丙烯). But polypropylene is a non-biodegradable plastic, and producing it ultimately means more drilling for oil. Hair, by contrast, is an environmentally friendly resource that can soak up around five times its weight in oil, according to Matter of Trust, and it is abundant. Oil spills can pollute drinking water, endanger public health, harm plants and wildlife, and damage the economy. According to Gautier, the spills that hit the headlines only make up 5% of global oil pollution. Megan Murray, an environmental biologist at the University of Technology Sydney, develops sustainable technologies to tackle oil spills. Her research indicates that as well as being biodegradable, human hair is often just as effective as polypropylene, and in some circumstances even better. “The hair mats are very beneficial to land spills,” says Murray but adds that when raw oil is spilled on beach sand, it is very difficult to absorb it using any of the materials she has tested. Another advantage of hair is that it costs less than conventional materials and is “globally available as a recycled material,” she says. However, Murray cautions that hair mats are not a perfect solution, because they are single-use, and can only be dealt with by burning or by burying into soil which then isn’t suitable for growing food. She is now researching methods to extract the oil from a used hair mat, meaning both can be reused. As the hair mat designs aren’t under patent, other groups have begun producing their own mats and booms. Gautier is pleased to see the movement growing. “Anyone can make a hair mat,” she says. “It creates green jobs, it cleans water, it reduces waste in landfill, and it’s promoting renewable resources.” 12. What do we know about polypropylene according to the passage? A. It is environmentally friendly. B. People need more oil to produce it. C. It can soak up around five times its weight in oil. D. People seldom use mats made from it to clean up oil from land. 13. What does Megan Murray think of the hair mats? A. Hair mats do no harm to soil after being burnt. B. People spend more to make hair mats than conventional materials. C. The effect of hair mats on terrestrial(陆地上的)spills is not very good. D. Hair mats are not a perfect solution because they can’t be recycled now. 14. What can we infer from the passage? A. Most oil-spill events have received widespread media coverage. B. Lisa Gautier donated her hair to soak up oil spills on land and at sea. C. Megan Murray goes all out to make the hair mats and the oil extracted from them reused. D. There are many other materials used to treat oil spills on beach sand besides hair. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Human Hair Is Being Used to Clean Up Oil Spills B. A Perfect Recycled Material—Human Hair C Take Action to Make Hair Mats And Booms D. How to Tackle Oil Spills 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 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。 Do You Laugh Too Little? When we are kids, we laugh a lot.

They grew up together because their parents were friends, too. Every autumn, the two families would go together on a trip to the Rocky Mountains. This year, under the guidance of park workers, they camped on the hillside. After putting up the tents, the two boys announced to climb Cathedral Mountain by themselves next morning and promised to back before dusk. Next morning, the boys set out with a backpack packed with food and water, the autumn breeze pinking their cheeks. Along the winding path, they glanced at a sea of colourful leaves spreading beneath their feet. As they got near to the top, the path was rocky and less-traveled. After three hours, they reached the top and enjoyed the beautiful view from the mountaintop. Lost in the breathtaking scenery, they felt refreshed from tiredness. How worthwhile the trip was! Having got enough rest, Jeremy and Ian decided to climb down. Suddenly, trouble began. On one very dangerous part of the mountain, Ian fell three metres off the side of the path. Jeremy climbed down to where Ian was and found him badly injured and not able to move. “Help!” Jeremy shouted. NO REPLY. “Help!Help!” Jeremy almost cried. But still no replies. If only I had brought my mobile phone in the bag, Jeremy mouthed, regretful and sad. Taking a deep breath, he tried to calm himself down. Then he noticed Ian was bleeding. So he cleaned the dirt and blood from Ian’s face and hands, and then tried to help Ian stand up, but Ian’s right leg was hurting too much. They had to wait and hope that help would come.While they waited for help, Jeremy gave Ian his food and water and let him lie on his jacket. Jeremy used an extra shirt to keep Ian warm and they rested together against a rock. However, as darkness started to fall, the weather turned cold and windy and help still didn’t arrive. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右: 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In low spirits, Ian told Jeremy to leave him and go back to their parents. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Exhausted, Jeremy felt hopeless again with Ian on his back. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 广安友谊中学2023年秋高二期中考试 英语试题 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力（共 20 小题，每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 第一节（共 5 小题） 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.

The Internet startup talent and restaurateur had just arrived in Jackson Hole from a conference where chef Jamie Oliver had spoken about the benefits of healthy eating. This was something Musk thought about a lot- how he might make a difference to the food industry—but beyond expanding his farm-to-table movement along with his restaurant, Musk hadn’t yet broken the code. Then he went sailing down a snowy slope (坡) and fell over, breaking his neck. The left side of his body was paralyzed. Musk eventually made a full recovery, but it involved spending two months on his back, which gave him plenty of time to come up with a plan. Since then, he has launched an initiative to put “learning gardens” in public schools across America; attracted Generation Z to the farming profession by changing shipping containers into high-tech, data-driven, year-round farms; and this year, is kicking off a new campaign to create one million at-home gardens. Aimed at reaching low- income families, the Million Gardens Movement was inspired by the pandemic, as both a desire to feel more connected to nature and food insecurity have been at the forefront of so many people’s lives. “We were getting a lot of inquiries about gardening from people that had never gardened before,” says Musk. “People were looking to garden for a bunch of reasons: to supplement their budget, to improve the nutritional quality of their diets, or just to cure the boredom that came with the lockdown.” The program offers free garden kits that can be grown indoors or outdoors, and will be distributed through schools that Musk's non-profit, Big Green, has already partnered with. It also offers free courses on how to get the garden growing and fresh seeds and materials for the changing growing seasons. “I grew up in the projects when I was young, in what we now call food deserts,” says EVE, one of the many celebrities who have teamed up with the organization to encourage people to pick up a free garden. “What I love about this is that it's not difficult. We are all able to grow something.” 4. What inspired Musk to be devoted to food industry? A. An accident. B. Jamie Oliver’s speech. C. The pandemic. D. The farm-to-table movement. 5. What can we learn about the Million Gardens Movement? A. It has mainly attracted young generations. B. It has just accomplished its target. C. It may be stimulated by a lack of food security. D. It increases economic burdens for the poor. 6. Which of the following best describes Musk? A. Charitable. B. Honest. C. Flexible. D. Strict. 7. Why is EVE taken as an example? A. To demonstrate the program to be non-profit. B. To share his experience in a food desert. C. To encourage people to start a free garden. D. To clarify the reason why he loves a garden. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Musk在受Jamie Oliver演讲的启发后，创立百万个家庭花园，鼓励和教授人们自己种植自己的食物，来让自己吃的食物更健康。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“The Internet startup talent and restaurateur had just arrived in Jackson Hole from a conference where chef Jamie Oliver had spoken about the benefits of healthy eating. This made Musk think a lot—how he might make a difference to the food industry(这位互联网创业天才和餐馆老板刚刚参加完Jackson Hole的一个会议抵达Jackson Hole，会上主厨Jamie Oliver谈到了健康饮食的好处。这让马斯克思考了很多——他如何能对食品行业作出改变)”可知，Musk在参加完Jamie Oliver的演讲之后开始考虑对食品行业作出改变，即受到了这个演讲的启发。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Aimed at reaching low- income families, the Million Gardens Movement was inspired by the pandemic, as both a desire to feel more connected to nature and food insecurity have been at the forefront of so many people’s lives. (百万花园运动旨在帮助低收入家庭，受到疫情的启发，因为许多人生活的首要问题是希望更多地与自然联系，以及粮食不安全)”可知，Million Gardens Movement可能是由于缺乏粮食安全而引起的。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“Aimed at reaching low-income families(旨在惠及低收入家庭)”可知Musk创立百万花园运动主要针对低收入家庭；由文章最后一段的“The program offers free garden kits that can be grown indoors or outdoors(该计划提供可以在室内或室外种植的免费花园套件)”可知他免费给人们提供种植套件；“It also offers free courses(它还提供免费课程)”可知Musk的计划还给人提供免费课程；综上所述，可推知Musk是富有慈善意识的。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“ “I grew up in the projects when I was young, in what we now call food deserts,” says EVE, one of the many celebrities who have teamed up with the organization to encourage people to pick up a free garden. “What I love about this is that it's not difficult. We are all able to grow something.”(“我小时候在这些项目中长大，我们现在称之为食物沙漠，”伊芙说，她是许多名人之一，与该组织合作，鼓励人们挑选一个免费的花园。“我喜欢这个的原因是它并不难。我们都能种点东西。”)”推知，最后一段用EVE的例子是为了鼓励人们开始免费的花园。故选C。 C Technology use seems to be the new wave of addiction hitting people of all ages. Its extreme use can be compared to the use of drugs, which is called Plug-in Heroin. The next time you’re in a crowded public place, look at the people around you. It’s hard to find someone who isn’t glued to the tiny screen, fingers moving at lightning speeds, texting their friends, emailing co-workers or listening to music. It may seem ridiculous that someone is that addicted to such a small object. I’ve seen people who seem to be at their wits’ end if their phone or iPad has been taken away, lost or left at home. Some people may ask, “What’s wrong with technology use? It’s a way for people to communicate.” While this is true, the overuse of technology isn’t always appropriate in certain settings. Schools are becoming stricter about the use of cell phones, iPads and other electronics in classrooms. Various workplaces have signs hanging on their walls warning employees that “Cell phone use is not permitted” or “Cell phones are forbidden.” Electronics may be a way for people to communicate and stay in touch with each other, but the disadvantages may outweigh the benefits. People are losing the ability to hold face-to-face conversations with others. However, it’s hard to avoid electronics in this day and age because almost everything is turning into an electronic format. Books, originally meant for paper design, are now being transferred (转存) to electronic forms. Photo albums, and even yearbooks, can now be viewed via the internet. With this growing trend, future generations are bound to become even more addicted to technology. Is there a cure for electronic addiction? Simply turning electronics off for an hour or two a day may help to an extent, but it will not completely rid electronic addiction. There only seems to be one cure left, and it may be the hardest: self control. 8. What is Plug-in Heroin? A. The growing popularity of electronics. B. The unreasonable dependence on electronics. C. The future possibility of technology development. D. The serious consequences of technology use. 9. The underlined phrase “at their wits’ end” in the 2nd paragraph probably means . A. Exhausted. B. Confused. C. Lost. D. Surprised. 10. Why is it difficult to avoid electronics nowadays? A. Too many things are available in electronic forms. B. The design of paper books is less interesting. C. It is a must to use electronics to keep in touch. D. Fewer choices are left for communication. 11. In the author’s opinion, what is the best way to cure electronic addiction? A. Turn off the electronics for one or two hours. B. Limit the use of electronic devices in classrooms. C Learn to control yourself over the use of electronics. D. Cell phones should be forbidden in the workplaces. 【答案】8 B 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了过度使用电子产品的成瘾行为，并具体阐明了这一成瘾行为的危害、社会背景原因及可能的解决办法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Technology use seems to be the new wave of addiction hitting people of all ages. Its extreme use can be compared to the use of drugs, which is called Plug-in Heroin. (过度使用科技似乎是新的成瘾形式。过度使用科技产品与吸毒一样，被称之为Plug-in Heroin)”可知，Plug-in Heroin是指过度使用电子产品的成瘾行为。下文接着通过公共场所的例子说明人们对电子产品的过度使用和依赖，由此可知，Plug-in Heroin就是不理性地依赖电子产品。故选B项。 【9题详解】 短语猜测题。根据文章第二段中“It’s hard to find someone who isn’t glued to the tiny screen, fingers moving at lightning speeds, texting their friends, emailing co-workers or listening to music. It may seem ridiculous that someone is that addicted to such a small object. (很难找到一个不盯着小屏幕的人，手指以闪电般的速度移动，给朋友发短信，给同事发电子邮件或听音乐。有人沉迷于这么小的物体似乎很荒谬。)”，可知人们的生活离不开电子产品，对智能手机很上瘾，结合划线句“I’ve seen people who seem to be at their wits’ end if their phone or iPad has been taken away, lost or left at home. (我见过一些人，如果他们的手机或iPad被拿走、丢失或留在家中，他们似乎是……。)”可知，如果他们的手机或iPad被拿走、丢失或留在家里，他们似乎就会迷然不知所措，因此该短语在本文意思有可能是lost (迷茫，不知所措)。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“However, it’s hard to avoid electronics in this day and age because almost everything is turning into an electronic format. (然而，在这个时代很难避免电子产品，因为几乎所有东西都变成了电子形式。)”可知，当今人们很难避免使用科技产品，因为更多的信息倾向于以电子形式提供。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的“There only seems to be one cure left, and it may be the hardest: self control. (似乎只剩下一种治愈方法，而且可能是最困难的：自我控制)”可知，作者认为最好的治愈电子上瘾的方法是学会控制自己使用电子产品。故选C项。 D Lisa Gautier receives nearly a dozen parcels of human hair every day. With her San-Francisco-based non-profit organization Matter of Trust, Gautier turns donated hair into mats used to soak up oil spills on land, and booms(long tubes)used for spills at sea. A standard way to clean up oil from land is to use mats made from polypropylene(聚丙烯). But polypropylene is a non-biodegradable plastic, and producing it ultimately means more drilling for oil. Hair, by contrast, is an environmentally friendly resource that can soak up around five times its weight in oil, according to Matter of Trust, and it is abundant. Oil spills can pollute drinking water, endanger public health, harm plants and wildlife, and damage the economy. According to Gautier, the spills that hit the headlines only make up 5% of global oil pollution. Megan Murray, an environmental biologist at the University of Technology Sydney, develops sustainable technologies to tackle oil spills. Her research indicates that as well as being biodegradable, human hair is often just as effective as polypropylene, and in some circumstances even better. “The hair mats are very beneficial to land spills,” says Murray but adds that when raw oil is spilled on beach sand, it is very difficult to absorb it using any of the materials she has tested. Another advantage of hair is that it costs less than conventional materials and is “globally available as a recycled material,” she says. However, Murray cautions that hair mats are not a perfect solution, because they are single-use, and can only be dealt with by burning or by burying into soil which then isn’t suitable for growing food. She is now researching methods to extract the oil from a used hair mat, meaning both can be reused. As the hair mat designs aren’t under patent, other groups have begun producing their own mats and booms. Gautier is pleased to see the movement growing. “Anyone can make a hair mat,” she says. “It creates green jobs, it cleans water, it reduces waste in landfill, and it’s promoting renewable resources.” 12. What do we know about polypropylene according to the passage? A. It is environmentally friendly. B. People need more oil to produce it. C. It can soak up around five times its weight in oil. D. People seldom use mats made from it to clean up oil from land. 13. What does Megan Murray think of the hair mats? A. Hair mats do no harm to soil after being burnt. B. People spend more to make hair mats than conventional materials. C. The effect of hair mats on terrestrial(陆地上的)spills is not very good. D. Hair mats are not a perfect solution because they can’t be recycled now. 14. What can we infer from the passage? A. Most oil-spill events have received widespread media coverage. B. Lisa Gautier donated her hair to soak up oil spills on land and at sea. C. Megan Murray goes all out to make the hair mats and the oil extracted from them reused. D. There are many other materials used to treat oil spills on beach sand besides hair. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Human Hair Is Being Used to Clean Up Oil Spills B. A Perfect Recycled Material—Human Hair C. Take Action to Make Hair Mats And Booms D. How to Tackle Oil Spills 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了用头发制成发垫可以用于吸收陆地上的和海上的石油泄漏。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A standard way to clean up oil from land is to use mats made from polypropylene. But polypropylene is a non-biodegradable plastic, and producing it ultimately means more drilling for oil.(清理陆地油污的一个标准方法是使用聚丙烯制成的垫子。但聚丙烯是一种不可生物降解的塑料，生产它最终意味着更多的石油钻探)”可知，生产聚丙烯就意味着更多的石油钻探。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“However, Murray cautions that hair mats are not a perfect solution, because they are single-use, and can only be dealt with by burning or by burying into soil which then isn’t suitable for growing food. (然而，默里警告说，发垫不是完美的解决方案，因为它们是一次性使用的，只能通过焚烧或埋进不适合种植食物的土壤中来处理)”可知，梅根·默里觉得发垫不是一个完美的解决方案，因为它们现在无法回收。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“However, Murray cautions that hair mats are not a perfect solution, because they are single-use, and can only be dealt with by burning or by burying into soil which then isn’t suitable for growing food. She is now researching methods to extract the oil from a used hair mat, meaning both can be reused.(然而，默里警告说，发垫不是完美的解决方案，因为它们是一次性使用的，只能通过焚烧或埋进不适合种植食物的土壤中来处理。她现在正在研究从用过的发垫中提取油的方法，这意味着两者都可以重复使用)”可知，梅根·默里竭尽全力使发垫和从中提取的油重复使用。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Lisa Gautier receives nearly a dozen parcels of human hair every day. With her San-Francisco-based non-profit organization Matter of Trust, Gautier turns donated hair into mats used to soak up oil spills on land, and booms(long tubes)used for spills at sea.(丽莎·戈蒂埃每天都会收到近12包人发。戈蒂埃在她位于旧金山的非营利组织“信任之事”(Matter of Trust)中，将捐赠的头发制成垫子，用于吸收陆地上的石油泄漏，以及用于海上泄漏的油栅(长管))”以及最后一段中“Gautier is pleased to see the movement growing. “Anyone can make a hair mat,” she says. “It creates green jobs, it cleans water, it reduces waste in landfill, and it’s promoting renewable resources.”(戈蒂埃很高兴看到这一运动的发展。“任何人都可以制作发垫，”她说。“它创造了绿色就业机会，它净化了水，它减少了垃圾填埋场的垃圾，它促进了可再生资源的发展。”)”可知，本文主要讲述了人类头发可以被用来清理石油泄漏，所以最好的标题是A.Human Hair Is Being Used to Clean Up Oil Spills(人类头发被用来清理石油泄漏)。故选A。 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 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。 Do You Laugh Too Little?

They grew up together because their parents were friends, too. Every autumn, the two families would go together on a trip to the Rocky Mountains. This year, under the guidance of park workers, they camped on the hillside. After putting up the tents, the two boys announced to climb Cathedral Mountain by themselves next morning and promised to back before dusk. Next morning, the boys set out with a backpack packed with food and water, the autumn breeze pinking their cheeks. Along the winding path, they glanced at a sea of colourful leaves spreading beneath their feet. As they got near to the top, the path was rocky and less-traveled. After three hours, they reached the top and enjoyed the beautiful view from the mountaintop. Lost in the breathtaking scenery, they felt refreshed from tiredness. How worthwhile the trip was! Having got enough rest, Jeremy and Ian decided to climb down. Suddenly, trouble began. On one very dangerous part of the mountain, Ian fell three metres off the side of the path. Jeremy climbed down to where Ian was and found him badly injured and not able to move. “Help!” Jeremy shouted. NO REPLY. “Help!Help!” Jeremy almost cried. But still no replies. If only I had brought my mobile phone in the bag, Jeremy mouthed, regretful and sad. Taking a deep breath, he tried to calm himself down. Then he noticed Ian was bleeding. So he cleaned the dirt and blood from Ian’s face and hands, and then tried to help Ian stand up, but Ian’s right leg was hurting too much. They had to wait and hope that help would come.While they waited for help, Jeremy gave Ian his food and water and let him lie on his jacket. Jeremy used an extra shirt to keep Ian warm and they rested together against a rock. However, as darkness started to fall, the weather turned cold and windy and help still didn’t arrive. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右: 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In low spirits, Ian told Jeremy to leave him and go back to their parents. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Exhausted, Jeremy felt hopeless again with Ian on his back. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: In low spirits, Ian told Jeremy to leave him and go back to their parents. But Jeremy still did not leave. He thought it was too dangerous for Ian to be alone on such a cold, windy night. Cold autumn wind made Jeremy shivering. Disappointment welled up inside him. Jeremy knew he had to do something other than staying still. Weighing the pros and cons, Jeremy finally decided that the only way to help his friend was to carry him down the mountain. So, Jeremy carried Ian on his back and they started the long climb back to the campsite. But the mountainous path was even tougher and more rocky for Jeremy to climb down, let alone Ian was on his back. Exhausted, Jeremy felt hopeless again with Ian on his back. Ian begged Jeremy to leave him alone again. Jeremy felt a surge of bitterness and shook his head without a word. Suddenly, a beam of light flashed. Great joy consumed them and Jeremy shouted his loudest “help”. Out came a park worker with a flashlight, who was searching for the boys. With the help of the worker, they were rescued and reunited with their concerned parents. “I will always remember what Jeremy did for me,” said Ian afterwards. “He saved my life. That is the greatest thing that a person can do for his friend.” 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jeremy Savage和Ian Marshall在爬山过程中，Ian从三米高的地方掉了下来，受了严重的伤。Jeremy不离不弃，奋力相救的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“Ian情绪低落，让Jeremy离开他，回到父母身边。”可知，第一段可描写Jeremy不离不弃，奋力相救的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“Jeremy筋疲力尽，Ian在他的背上，他再次感到绝望。”可知，第二段可描写二人获救的过程。 2.续写线索：冻得瑟瑟发抖——决定背Ian下山——回程很艰难——Ian乞求Jeremy丢下他——Jeremy摇头——一束光闪烁——二人欣喜若狂——工作人员帮助——二人获救 3.词汇激活 行为类 发抖：shiver/tremble 帮助：help/assist 拯救：save/rescue 情绪类 欣喜若狂：great joy consume sb./be wild with joy 失望：disappointment/despair 【点睛】[高分句型1] Weighing the pros and cons, Jeremy finally decided that the only way to help his friend was to carry him down the mountain.(运用了现在分词作状语以及that引导宾语从句) [高分句型2] Out came a park worker with a flashlight, who was searching for the boys.(运用了全部倒装以及who引导非限制性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
