Here is his personal list of the best reads. Travels With a Donkey in the Cévennes Robert Stevenson It is one of the first travel books I have read, which takes me on a walking journey with Robert and his donkey (驴) Mosestine across a mountainous region of France. I get to feel what traveling through 1870’s Europe was like. Robert and his donkey don’t get along well at first, but they finally learn to become travel companions. World Walk Steven Newman World Walk is the story of newspaper writer Steven Newman who packed his bag at the age of 28 to start a four year-long journey around the world on foot. He walked his way across 22 countries in five co6d heartfelt stories of the people he met along the way, as well as wild adventures A lesson of hope and love is told through the exciting backpacking. On the Road Jack Kerouac On the Road is a classic American travel book. The story, which is based on Kerouac himself, tells us about Dean Moriarty’s cross-country journey across America in the 1940’s. A great read for those who would like to escape the real world for a while and just go where the wind blows them. The Cat Who Went to Paris Peter Gethers For someone who expects to experience life-changing wonders that await abroad, there’s perhaps no better resource (资源) than The Cat Who Went to Paris. Peter Gethers’ global journey with a cat named Norton puts a note of humor into many common travel situations. 21. Who does “I” refer to in the text? A. Robert Stevenson. B. Matthew Karsten. C. Steven Newman. D. Jack Kerouac. 22. Which book tells about travels in America? A. World Walk. B. On the Road. C. The Cat Who Went to Paris. D. Travels With a Donkey in the Cévennes. 23. What do the works by Stevenson and Gethers have in common? A. They are based on the same experience. B. They show a useful skill in raising cats. C. They are about a journey with an animal. D. They focus on a love story in Europe. B David Grant and Yvonne Faulkner-Grant of Warwickshire, England always let their 13-year-old dog, Scruff, pick up the plastic bottles he finds while out on their daily walks. The dog carries the bottle for a while, and they kick it or throw it for him to chase. The game is over when Scruff loses interest and drops it. Throughout 2021, David and Yvonne observed Scruff’s habit of finding even the most well-hidden bottles. They also noticed a marked increase in the amount of litter in their rural area. David says they were both taught never to drop their trash as children, so they couldn’t believe that people were littering so much. At the start of 2022, David and Yvonne decided to start picking up the bottles to bring home with them. It was the large number of litter that made them decide to train Scruff to gather other people’s trash. Since starting this journey, Scruff has become a local celebrity in his neighborhood. David and Yvonne never let Scruff pick up anything dangerous, like glass. They also remain appalled by the amount of litter they’re seeing, and hope that people will hear Scruff story and either stop dropping trash or, perhaps, try picking it up themselves. Plus, Yvonne thinks Scruff took to his duties so well, other dogs could easily be trained to do what he does as well. In the end, Scruff was able to gather up 1,334 bottles — along with three cups, a Pringles tub, and a baby feeding bottle. “If we walk the same route (路线) every day, he will find bottles on that route every single day.” said David. “We feel a bit of pride that we are picking them up, but a bit of anger that they’re even there,” Yvonne said. 24. In which situation will the game be over? A. Scruff gathers 100 bottles. B. Scruff throws the bottle into the bin. C. Scruff drops the plastic bottle. D. David Grant sells the bottle for money. 25. What were David and Yvonne taught from their childhood? A. Don’t drop litter everywhere. B. Animals are our friends. C. The best fish swim near the bottom. D. Every dog has his day. 26. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “appalled” in para. 3? A. Satisfied. B. Shocked. C. Curious. D. Excited. 27. How do David and Yvonne feel about the result? A. Excited and proud. B. Angry and disappointed. C. Unhappy but understandable. D. Proud but angry. C As you walk around the UK in March, you might notice that some people are wearing a daffodil (水仙花) on their coats. The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities: Marie Curie. Marie Curie tries to ensure everyone who has cancer is cared for in the best possible way. It also helps fund research into possible cures. Founded in 1948, it has been continuing with its goal ever since. The charity was named after Marie Curie, a famous scientist. She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity (放射性). Unfortunately, over-exposure to the radioactive elements made her develop a disease and die in 1934. Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in two different fields. Because of her pioneering work which led to chemotherapy (化学疗法), the charity decided on the name of Marie Curie. The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK, which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter. Because of this, the charity uses the daffodil as a metaphor (比喻) for bringing rebirth through charitable giving. Everyone you see wearing a daffodil has contributed to the charity, but each daffodil is worth only what you want to pay for it. The charity does ask that you stick to a minimum amount of £1. The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March, when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” start. But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March. People are sometimes seen walking around with daffodils on their clothes all year round. 28. Why do some British people wear a daffodil? A. To support a charity. B. To celebrate patients’ recovery. C. To remember a scientist. D. To offer hope to cancer patients. 29. What makes the charity use the name of Marie Curie? A. Marie Curie’s support for the charity. B. Marie Curie’s achievement in cancer treatment. C. Marie Curie’s research on radioactivity. D. Marie Curie’s concern over cancer patients. 30. What does the daffodil stand for according to the charity? A. Bringing life to other people. B. Returning of flowering plants. C. Contributing money to the charity. D. Lasting care for patients with cancer. 31 What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. A change in a British custom. B. The effect of a campaign. C. A special activity held in March. D. The time to wear daffodils. D You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved. “People tend to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “The first thoughts that come into your mind often stop you from offering help.” Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the assistance of others. They know they should act and however, for reasons they themselves don’t understand, people sometimes don’t respond. Why? One thing we know is that the unclearer a situation is, the less likely people are to help. Let’s say you see something like vapors (水汽) coming out of a building. You ask yourself, “Is it steam (蒸汽) or smoke?” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react. If you see other people doing nothing, you think, “Of course, that’s just steam.” You don’t want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it. Another one is known as “the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it! “If you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking away,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also help. 32. According to Ervin Staub, when accidents happen, people’s first thoughts ________. A. force them to give a hand B. depend on others’ reaction C. prevent them from helping D. often lead to embarrassment 33. What does “the bystander effects” in paragraph 5 show? A. Many hands make light work. B. More people, less responsibility. C. The majority of people have the same idea. D. People have a tendency to think twice before they act. 34. What should you probably act if you observe trouble according to last paragraph? A. Call the ambulance as soon as you can. B. Evaluate the situation and take action alone. C. Stop and try to involve other people to help together. D. Turn to others and ask them to take on the whole responsibility. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Stick to Your Decision. B. Don’t Just Stand There. C. It’s the Thought that Counts. D. To Help or Not, it’s a Question. 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 become a professional athlete Everyone wants to be a superstar athlete.

Mother’s Day was coming up and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without money?” he thought. Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the couch. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree(疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad. “This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper, taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write. “My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.” Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought. Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest. “What am I going to do now?” he wondered. He didn’t have a present and he didn’t have a shopping spree, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and curled his toes and thought so hard that his ears hurt. 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。 Suddenly he had an idea. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Jim handed his present to his mom. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024—2025学年高二期中考试 英语试题 考生注意： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 考试时间为120分钟, 满分150分。 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) 请听下面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。 【1题答案】 【答案】C 【2题答案】 【答案】A 【3题答案】 【答案】A 【4题答案】 【答案】B 【5题答案】 【答案】A 第二节(共15小题;每小题1.5分，满分22.5分) 请听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题， 每小题5秒钟;听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.

Undeniably, WeChat makes communication convenient and leisure time colorful. However, there exist some potential risks if we overshare. One severe problem is leaking privacy, which may cause economic losses. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortable, for they think you are showing off. Thus, never should we post our personal information, nor should we blindly add strangers to the list of friends. It’s wiser to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful. Best wishes! Yours truly, Li Hua 第二节(满分25分) 【67题答案】 【答案】Suddenly he had an idea.
