Carly Burd, from Harlow, England, found the soil covered in salt and posted a touching video about the incident on TikTok. Burd, who has Multiple Sclerosis and Lupus (多发性硬化症和狼疮), told viewers she believed someone went onto her plot of land and placed salt to destroy the work that she’s put in to help feed people in need. Last November, Burd began posting about her “A Meal on Me with Love”. “I changed my garden into a place to provide those on benefits, pensioners (领养老金的人) on state pension and those on a low income free organic fruit and vegetables plus other necessities of life. They receive a large box that contains necessities plus enough food, fruit, vegetables,rice, breakfast etc. for the number of people in the household,” Burd said. Up till now she’s fed more than 1,600 people among the cost of living crisis in the UK. After Burd shared her heartbreak on TikTok, users began providing lots of donations, advice, and support. Burd’s “A Meal on Me with Love” has been flooded with donations in light of this incident. As of Thursday morning, Burd’s GoFundMe campaign has raised £184,777 of its first £4,000 goal. “The world needs more people like you,” one person wrote with a $15 donation. “Your love and kindness for humanity is amazing. All of us would be so lucky to cross paths with someone like you in a time of need,” another person commented with a $10 donation. Burd said in an update that with the help of others she was able to dig up a lot of the salt and cover it with topsoil to neutralize (中和) it. “I’m really losing my head by everyone’s comments and everything,” she said. “I really do appreciate it — thank you.” 24.

Burd raised enough money to build a new garden. C Art is a reflection of society and culture. It helps us understand what we are as human beings and influences how we relate to each other. It’s also an expression of creativity that can be used for self-reflection or social influence. Art is important to individuals for many different reasons. Art is highly subjective and also very personal and has long been a medium where individuals can express their feelings and emotions. For many people, art has always been a part of their lives and is an essential part of their personality or who they are. Art has the ability to help people get through some of the hardest times in their lives. Art helps people connect with one another on a deeper level, whether by speaking your language or by imagining your thoughts differently. Some artworks speak to someone more than others, and everyone will have a piece of art that is particularly important or special to them. Art has been a part of human culture for many centuries. It has been used to express emotions, to communicate ideas and it has been a way to pass down knowledge from one generation to another. So it is important in our cultural and social lives. Art also plays a role in recording history, and many artworks help us paint a picture of what life was like in previous generations. Art is also particularly important as a symbol of culture across the world. Research has shown that art can affect the basic sense of self. Folk arts, for example, are highly unique to specific cultures and tell the history and rich traditions of a region. Painting, architecture, art sculpture, music, literature and many other fine arts can be considered a repository (宝库) of a given society’s collective memory. 28. What can art help people do according to the text? A. Control their feelings. B. Connect with artworks. C. Deal with tough times. D. Make more money. 29. What can we infer from Paragraph 5? A. Art is the best way to pass down knowledge in old times. B. People always use artworks to express their feelings instead of words. C. Art gives us an idea of how people lived before. D. The value of artworks hasn’t been discovered until now. 30. How does the author develop the last paragraph? A. By exploring reasons. B. By having a discussion. C. By providing numbers. D. By giving an example. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Where Can We Find Artworks? B. Pass Down the Artworks C. Why Is Art Important? D. Learn History from Art D When we talk about plastic rubbish polluting the earth, we don’t often talk about the environmental impacts caused by fast-food packaging. Actually, this packaging is often coated with environmentally damaging chemicals. Recently researchers from Flinders University and German biomaterials developer, one·five, have started using seaweed (海草) to solve the packaging waste problem of the fast-food industry. Using seaweed to create sustainable (可持续的) alternatives to existing products isn’t a new concept. The idea of turning seaweed into a material to replace bubble wrap (气泡膜包装) was put forward more than seven years ago. This time, the Flinders University materials researchers andone·five are using seaweed extracts (提取物) to develop next-generation coating materials. In fact, these new non-pollutive biomaterials are designed to replace the traditional fossil-based plastic coatings that are used in most oil-proof fast-food packaging. The new coating not only meets the required functionality standards of traditional oil-proof packaging materials but also works to create an environmentally sustainable solution. It is as recyclable as paper, explains Dr Zhongfan Jia, a lead researcher from the Flinders Institute. “The seaweed extracts have a similar structure to the natural fibres from which paper is made,” says Dr Jia. “Our novel treatments boost the oil-proof feature of the seaweed through simple adaptation while neither affecting the biodegradability (生物降解力) nor recyclability of the coated paper.” “The product could be great news for the environment. We are able to reduce harmful plastic pollution with it,” says Claire Gusko, co-founder of one· five. Now Flinders University and one·five are trying mass production from the laboratory to the factory. Although achievements like this are definitely worth celebrating, we can’t just stop at seaweed packaging. We need to use seaweed and other sustainable tools to effectively help reduce our environmental impacts and make real changes. 32. What’re researchers from Flinder University and one five doing? A. Producing seaweed extracts. B. Solving the food waste problem. C. Turning seaweed into bubble wrap. D. Using seaweed to develop new coating materials. 33. What is the traditional plastic coating like? A. Cheap. B. Oil-proof. C. Recyclable. D. Sustainable. 34. What do we know about the seaweed extract coating? A. It is a novel concept. B. It has been put on the market. C. It is environmentally friendly. D. It is coated with damaging material. 35. Why does the author write the text? A. To stop people from using plastic package. B. To advertise for a new environmentally friendly product. C. To introduce a replacement for traditional packaging material. D. To warn readers of the environmental impacts caused by fast-food packaging. 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。 How to Cheer up Your Friend The following tips will make your friend cheer up.

So he pulled up in front of her car and got out. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He said,“I’m here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is BryanAnderson.” Well, all she had was a flat tire (爆胎), but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan checked under the car looking for a tool. Soon he was able to change the tire. As he was tightening up the lug nuts (螺帽), she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid. The lady asked how much she should pay him. Any amount would have been all right with her. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He told her, “If you really wanted to pay me back, next time you see someone in need, give them a hand.”It had been a cold and cheerless day, but he felt good as he headed for home. A few miles down the road the lady saw a small café. She went in to grab a bite to eat. It was a dirty-looking restaurant. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant (怀孕的), but she had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn’t erase. 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。 The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to dry her wet hair. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then the waitress noticed something written on a tissue. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024~2025学年度第一学期期中考试 高二英语 全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3.选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑;非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答;字体工整，笔迹清楚。 4.考试结束后，请将试卷和答题卡一并上交。 5.本卷主要考查内容：至北师大版选择性必修第二册 Unit4。 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。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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell you about humour. A sense of humour is considered to be one of the most important human qualities that improve our life in different ways. Firstly, at school, a humorous teacher can help students focus their attention very easily, and students will become more active and creative when experiencing the joy of learning. Secondly, humour has a positive effect on our health. It’s said that laughter is the best medicine. Thirdly, humour helps us remove stress and have a positive attitude towards life. Finally, I believe humour can be a powerful and delightful way to establish close friendships with people. Thanks! 第二节(满分25分) 【67题答案】 【答案】One possible version: The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to dry her wet hair. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so kind to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan. After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady was gone by the time the waitress came back. She wondered where the lady could be. Then the waitress noticed something written on a tissue. There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote,“You don’t owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you.” Under the tissue were four more $100 bills. Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
