Personally, the Chinese tea art called chadao in Chinese is your best choice. Firstly, only by learning it can you have a better taste of authentic Chinese tea culture. Additionally, you can dig out the charm of the traditional Chinese tea culture only by drinking a variety of tea. To learn the course well, you’d better search for related knowledge in advance, so that you can have a better understanding of the Chinese tea art. I do hope you can take my recommendations into account. Yours, Li Hua 续写： At that moment my father pointed to the cage, “Look at that crab, there!” Staring at the crab, I found that every time he wanted to escape, he was pulled back into the cage. However, he didn't give up his fight. Fortunately, he survived from the struggle eventually. Shocked and amazed, I suddenly understood why my father had suggested catching crabs that morning. I thought the future would be filled with many possibilities. Everyone would need to find out what he enjoyed and held on to it. From that day on, I was determined to make my dream come true. Besides my devotion to school work, I spent all my spare time making full preparations for becoming a writer. Reading, collecting materials and writing made my life busy but fulfilled, which laid a good foundation for me. Meanwhile, I contributed to literature journals. Gradually, some achievements as a writer increased my confidence. I always think of the crab whenever faced with difficulties. What my father said also encouraged me on my way to success. Now I am grateful for sticking to the thing I truly dreamed of. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$余江一中2024年高二年级上学期期中英语科试卷 考试时间，120分钟 命题人：王建平 第一部分听力（共两节，湖分30分） 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，尚分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从图中所给的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秒钟的时仰来回答有关小题和阅谈下 一小题。每段对话仅读一道。 1.What is the man talking about?

B Afroz Shah.a lawyer in Mumbai.hasn't had a weekend off in four years.But he hasn't spent this time preparing for court.His mission is to save the world's oceans from plastic pollution. It's a calling he found in 2015 after moving to a community in Mumbai called Versova Beach. He had played there as a child and was upset to see how much it had changed.The sand was no longer visible because it was covered by a layer of garbage more than five feet thick-most of it was plastic waste.The unsightly()mess Shah had stumbled upon is part of a global environmental crisis.It's predicted that by 2050,there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean. In October 2015.Shah began picking up trash from the beach every Sunday moming.At first, it was just him and a neighbor,and then he began recruiting others to join in.Word spread and with the help from social media,more volunteers got involved.He's now spent 209 weekends dedicated to this mission,inspiring more than 200,000 volunteers to join him in what's been called the world's biggest beach clean-up.By October 2018,Versova Beach was finally clean and Shah's clean-up expanded to another beach,as well as a stretch of the Mithi River and other regions of India.So far,the movement has cleared more than 60 million pounds of garbage-mostly plastic waste-from Mumbai's beaches and waterways. While he continues to work as a lawyer during the week,Shah now devotes nearly all of his free time to this cause.He also works with coastal communities to tackle plastic pollution at one of the sources.In areas lacking sufficient waste management systems.Shah and his volunteers educate and assist villagers in reducing,managing.and recycling their plastic waste. 24.What has kept Shah busy at weekends over the four years? A.Handling legal cases. B.Cleaning up the beach. C.Swimming in the ocean. D.Fishing on the coast. 25.Why was Shah upset after moving to Versova Beach? A.The beach no longer existed. B.The community was In a mess. C.Many fish in the ocean were killed. D.There was severe plastic pollution. 26.How did Shah carry out his mission? A.By raising money to recycle plastic waste. B.By encouraging others to join his clean-up. C.By appealing to people not to throw garbage. D.By devoting all his time to collecting garbage. 27.Which of the following best explains the underlined word"tackle"in the last paragraph? A.Report. B.Predict. C.Deal with. D.Cover up. C There are few creators whose legacy (is as far-reaching as Walt Disney.Disney transformed a simple cartoon mouse into a huge empire.Through the years,Disney also had his share of critics.But his view of criticism (may be different than what you'd imagine. Way back in 1975.the book The Story of Walt Disney shared one of my favorite quotes from the famous entertainer."You may not realize it when it happens,but may be the best thing in the world for you."There is a lot to be learned from that sentence.As you go through life,there will be no shortage of persons telling you what you need to improve.You could simply ignore them or you could do what Disney did:use that negative feedback to make you better. Negative feedback is like a freshly mined (diamond.On the surface,you've got what would appear to most persons to be a dull,ugly rock.But to a trained eye,that ugly rock is extremely valuable.All it needs is a little cut and polish ()Criticism is like an unpolished diamond:it is ugly.Here you are,trying your best.and someone comes along to tell you it's not good enough.But much like a processional diamond cutter can take that unpolished rock and turn it into something beautiful,you can leamn to get the benefits of criticism. Think about it:smart as you are,there's always room for improvement.Additionally,all of us have blind spots.Of course.some criticism will be completely wrong.But even in these cases,it's valuable because it helps you to see your actions through another perspective ()one you may not have considered. Learning to benefit from such criticism takes emotional intelligence-the ability to make emotions work for you,instead of against you.The key is to change the way you process criticism and learn to turn negative feedback into something constructive.It never feels good to hear that you are wrong.When you do.take a page out of Walt's book and remember:it is the ones who tell you the truth-even when it hurts-who will make you better. 28.How is the third paragraph mainly developed? A.By offering numbers. B.By analyzing causes. C.By comparison. D.By describing a process. 29.Why is even wrong criticism meaningful? A.It offers you a fresh perspective.B.It leads you to rethink your blind spots. C.It prepares you for future similar criticism.D.It helps improve your emotional intelligence. 30.What's the main idea of the passage? A.Learn to see criticlsm in a different light. B.Polish your skills of emotional intelligence. C.Train yourself to ignore negative feedback. D.Face criticism and set another goal. 31.What is the writer's feeling towards Walt Disney? A.Anger. B.Embarrassment. C.Fear. D.Admiration. D Sitting around doing nothing used to scem like one of the safest activities possible.Then a few years ago sclentists discovered that sitting all day causes harmful changes that increase your chances of meeting an early end.Even regular workouts didn't fix the ill effects of having your bottom in a chair all workday.Suddenly,sitting became public health enemy number one. However,a new research finds that tiny bursts of Intense activity are enough to protect your body from the worst effects of your couch-bound lifestyle. In the research,the scientists closely observed eight young,healthy volunteers as they sat around.On the first day of the experiment they simply lounged for six hours.On the second day they got up every hour and engaged in five rounds of four seconds of intense workouts on a specialized bike. "Twenty seconds total exercise an hour sounds like nothing,but the data showed it made a big difference to the subjects'bodies.In short,they didn't exhibit the usual ill effects of having sat all day.This study is small,but it's still both hopeful and relevant.The results suggest that breaking up sitting with frequent exercise can undo some of the effects of being inactive,"explains Gretchen Reynolds. "While the study used a special type of bike developed by sports scientists,the researchers feel similar results are obtainable with home exercise equipment.However,you may have to work for a few more seconds to reach the same level of intensity.You should try to get your heart pumping to its maximum as quickly as possible to ensure the effect.When you find yourself sitting for most of the day,try to rise frequently and move as often during the day as possible and for as many seconds as you can manage,"Reynolds concludes. 32.What does the new research find? A.Regular workouts can extend your life. B.Sitting all day can cause permanent harm. C.Sitting is a worst enemy for people's health. D.Intense exercise can relieve the damage of sitting. 33.How did the researchers reach the conclusion? A.By comparing figures. B.By analyzing phenomena. C.By describing behaviors. D.By referring to documents. 34.What can we know from Reynolds'words? A.The study still needs further experiments for data. B.Reaching maximum heart rate should be the aim. C.Working out at home is much less effective. D.20 seconds'exercise is far from enough. 35.What can be the best title of the passage? A.The Worst Health Problem Is Solved B.Intense Activities Are Beneficial to Health C.Just 4 Seconds'Exercise Makes a Big Difference D.New Research Redefines a Healthy Lifestyle 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Say you're out for a walk in the woods.36.Nor can you tell the direction from which you've come.You're lost.How can you survive?Here's the good news:You don't need to be a survival expert to find your way back to clvilization.Just stay calm and remember these tips. Pinpoint(定位)your location. Take a good look around.What do you see?37,pinpointing your location will be difficult.If possible,find higher ground.giving yourself a better view of the surroundings. Otherwise,you may end up walking directionless and possibly in circles. 38 While traveling through the wilderness.be observant.Look for old campsites,fishing line. food bags,cigarette ends,plastic water bottles,or any other kind of litter.If you find any such evidence,examine your surroundings to determine which way they went. If possible,stick to open country. 39__.This type of terrain(地带)is often a result of farming or logging(伐木)，which may put you closer to other people.Plus,being out in the open makes it easier for you to be spotted by a low flying aircraft.Be sure to have something ready to signal with in case a rescue plane flies nearby.Travel downhill. If you are lost in hilly terrain,your best choice is almost always to travel downhill.People tend to settle in valleys,usually close to water.40,head down and out of the mountains.
