My work as an expedition doctor has taken me all over the world,from mosquito-infested wet land in Africa to the untouched wildemess of Antarctica. However,my favourite trips,and the ones in which I now specialise,are those involving mountains.Never do I feel more inspired by nature than when I look up at their towering peaks and begin to prepare myself mentally for the challenges ahead. 1 trained as a doctor in the UK,but there was little in that training to prepare me to deal with a broken leg during a storm on the side of a mountain!In fact,I'd say that medical skills come some way down the list of job requirements,after stamina () problem-solving and communication. This kind of medicine is a million miles away from the controlled,clean environment of a hospital,and your medical kit basically consists of whatever you can carry,so you sometimes have to use whatever is available.For example,I've leamed that some drugs can be used for several conditions,and I've even had to cut branches off a small tree to make a piece of wood to support a broken arm. Now I do most of my work for adventure holiday companies,travelling to remote places.When I started out,these holidays were quite rare,but they have become much more mainstream now that we've all seen celebrities climbing Kilimanjaro or watched reality shows about people exploring jungles. I do have mixed feelings about all these people with large amounts of income coming to poor areas just for their own enjoyment,so I try to make sure that the companies I work for have high moral standards and bring advantages to the local communities.And of course,tourism provides employment,and also opens the eyes of visitors to the hardship that many people are forced to go through. 第4页共10页 39.What made the author choose his career? A.His love of nature. B.His desire for adventure. C.His gift for medicine. D.His sense of responsibility. 40. What is the biggest challenge for the author during the trips? A.Reducing potential risks. B.Surviving in the wild. C.Adapting to local customs. D. Dealing with emergencies. 41.According to the author,the companies he now works for should A.satisfy tourists and make profits B. offer tourists challenges and security C. benefit local people as well as tourists D build tourists'mental and physical well-being 国 B The rise of the robots has raised the possibility of a future where there is simply less work for humans to do.To exhausted office workers,a world where we all have a 为 bit more leisure time sounds rather nice.Yet what really matters is not just the total amount of human labour that will be needed in future.It is how that work will be 京 肖 distributed(分布)across the workforce, If the recent past is anything to go by,there is no reason to believe it will be evenly 长 spread.The length of the average working week in the UK bas declined steadily from 彩 about 59 hours in the mid-19th century to 32 hours in 2009.But averages hide a lot. While trends among women have been stable,there have been big shifts among men.Males in well-paid full-time employment,earning 2.5 times the median wage,are 郭 now working slightly longer hours on average than two decades ago,according to the 名 前 Resolution Foundation,a think-tank.At the same time,men in full-time employment at the bottom of the wage ladder are working quite a lot less. 高 On top of that,the number of low-paid men who work part-time has mushroomed. Twenty years ago,one in 20 men aged 25 to 55 with low bourly wages worked 湖 part-time;today it is one in five.Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies,another think-tank,shows this phenomenon is only happening among the low-paid.In better-paying jobs,part-time men are still fairly rare.Gender roles within families might be converging()too.Low-paid men may be choosing to shoulder more childcare responsibilities so their partners can retum to work. Yet it is clear that the distribution of work still matters to people.Britain has an underemployment problem and an overemployment problem at the same time:official data show 3.4m people want to work more hours while 3.2m want to work fewer hours for less pay.The underemployed are most likely to be waiters or cleaners.The overemployed are most likely to be doctors or chief executives.This hints at an economy where the demand and supply of skills are out of sync. Nobody knows for sure how the next wave of automation will shake up demand for different skills.Perhaps doctors will gain the free time they crave.Others might find themselves in greater demand.But short of us developing a much better sysiem for training people quickly for the jobs the economy needs,it seems likely that in the future -as now-here will be too much work for some,and too little for others. 第5页共10页 42.What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?/ A.The widespread of robots will replace humans'work. B.UK has taken some steps to stop the decline of working hours. C.The averages may not be accurate indicators of what has happened. D.Future leisure time will be distributed unevenly across the workforce. 43.The phrase"out of syne"is closest in meaning to A.important B.undoubted C.harmful D.imbalanced 44.In order to make the work distribution more even,we should A.establish a better training system B.develop the automatic equipment C.adapt to new working environment D.create more employment opportunities 45.Which of the following best summarizes the text? A.The total amount of human labour will be decreased. B.Better training systems will be built across the world. C.Robots will drive us to rethink how work is distributed D.The rise of robots will promote gender equality in employment. c The aggressive spread of market economics and communication technologies- often under the control of Western multinational companies-brings new challenges to local cultures and values in non-Western societies.Sometimes it seems as if a tidal wave of the worst Westem culture is creeping across the globe like a giant strawberry milkshake spill out and over the planet,with a flavor that is distinctly sweet,sickly and apparently homogeneous(同质的). For some,especially the young,change may mean escape from oppressive traditions.It may also bring new opportunities for cultures to be combined in creative ways.However,there is genuine cause for concem about the rate at which cultures are being wom away in such a globalized world. Perhaps by far the most important far-reaching effect of cultural globalization is the commercialization of culture,which has a disturbing impact on local people's existing values.They are increasingly bombarded with new images,new music,new clothes and new values.The familiar and old are to be abandoned.While there was cultural change long before globalization,there is a danger that much will be lost simply because it is not valued by global markets.In West Africa,for example,traditional values have been overtaken by Coca-Cola culture which the local people don't yet have the values to deal with successfully. Another universal aspect of the globalized culture is that it pursues the same "one size fits all"American ideal.The result of this cultural process of hompgenization is that a large section ot the world's population dreams of living like Cosby Co.or like the characters in any other stereotype American soap opera.In addition,the dream of living a better life causes thousands of people to move to already overcrowded cities whose population has boomed by millions within the last decades.The majority of these new immigrants end up in slums leading to poverty,pollution and misery. Such gradual aggression against people's existing values and cultures has a destructive impact on their sense of who they are,what they want and what they respect. 第6页共10页 It attacks spiritual values and faith traditions.The accumulative()effect in non-Westem societies is a crisis of cultural confidence,combined with the increased economic uncertainty and crime which global integration may bring.This creates real problems for social stability;whether it is at the level of nation,community or family. In conclusion,cultural globalization,or worldwide McDonaldization,destroys diversity and displaces the opportunity to sustain decent life through a mixture of many different cultures.It is more a consequence of power concentration in the global media and manufacturing companies than the people's own wish to abandon their cultural identity and diversity. 46.It can be learned from Paragraph I that A.Westem culture unites the world,economies and technologies B.non-Western societies willingly accept economic globalization C.the booming of Westem culture destroys non-Westem societies D.despite its appeal,westerization shows an unpleasant uniformity 塑 47.Which best serves as an example of the "one size fits all"principle in non-Westem nations? 如 A.McDonald receives more criticism abroad than at home. B.Chinese food wins great approval in the United Kingdom. 京 部 C.Many Africans dream of a middle class American lifestyle. 0 D.Some westem young people fancy a visit to African countries 长 48.What is the writer's attitude towards cultural globalization? 瑞 A.Cautious. B.Critical. C.Positive. D.Neutral 空 49.The passage is mainly about i A.cultural diversity in globalization B.challenges to non-Western cultures C.drawbacks of cultural globalization D.disappearance of non-Western cultures 第二节（共5小题： 每小题2分，共10分) 相 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中 有两顶为多余选顶。 Digital Medicine Could the next suggestion from your doctor be downloading an app?Collectively known as digital medicine,a large number of apps in use or under development can now 0 detect or monitor mental and physical disorders or directly administer therapies.50 Many detection aids rely on mobile devices to record such features as users'voices, locations,facial expressions,exercise and sleep;then they apply artificial intelligence to mark the possible change of a condition.Some smart watches,for instance,contain a sensor that automatically detects and warns people of a dangerous heart rate.A 51 These wearable detection aids will not replace a doctor any time soon but can be helpful partners in stressing concerns that need follow-up.52 Some are being developed to detect things such as cancerous DNA,stomach bleeds,body temperature and oxygen levels.The sensors inside your body can then send the data to apps for recording. 第7页共0页 53 For the most part,those intended to diagnose or treat disorders must be proved safe and effective in clinical trials and eamn regulatory approval;some may need a doctor's permission. Clearly,society must move into the future of digital medicine with care-ensuring that the apps go through strict testing,protect privacy and go smoothly into doctors' work.With such protections in place,healthcare costs could be saved by marking unhealthy behaviours and helping people to make changes before diseases set in.54 For researchers,the pattems that emerge will provide them with novel ideas for how best to build healthier habits and prevent diseases. A.Not all healthcare apps can be used as digital medicine. B.Digital medicine has been widely used in all aspects of life nowadays. Detection aids can also take the form of eatable and sensor-bearing pills. DThey can both help diagnose symptoms and enhance traditional medical care. E.Other similar tools can detect breathing disorders,depression and other conditions. FThese data also help doctors detect diseases and help patients change their behaviors. G.For doctors,applying AI to the data from these apps could help them personalize patient care. 第四部分：基础知识（共2节，共21分） 第一节单词拼写（请用一、二单元学过的单词完成，每题1分，共11分） 55.What upset us was that our flight was d because of the fierce storm. 56.R as the "father of hybrid rice"in China,Yuan Longping made tremendous contributions to the Green Revolution in agriculture. 57.There is (有说服力的)evidence of a link between balanced diets with good health. 58.Nowadays,social networking d my life,as I spend much time checking messages,browsing posts,and staying connected with friends online. 59.He (建立，成立)a firm of his own soon after he graduated from college. 60.As I always tell my son,there are no great difficulties for a person who is brave, (乐观的)，and willing to work hard! 61.Tu Youyou,a (尽职尽责的)and patient scientist,was bom in Ningbo, China,on 30 December 1930. 62.She felt greatly (羞愧，惭愧)for her being so distracted in such an important meeting. 63.The soldiers were (极度地)tired and the heavy rain added to their difficulty. 64.In the letter,I would like to convey my sincere a to you for your help. 65.Sports can be fun and healthy,but without proper safety measures,they can also lead to serious i especially in high-contact activities like basketball. 第8页共10页 第二节完成句子（请用一、二单元学过的词组完成，每题2分，共10分） 66.他的解释对我来说是非常有意义的。 His explanation to me. 67.我喜欢与性格开朗的人交往。 1 like people that are outgoing. 68.不要过分担心那些你无法掌握的事情。 Never things you cannot control. 69.如果你努力学习，你就会体会到成就感。 You will feel a sense of satisfaction if you studying. 70.最终，问题常常归结为缺乏沟通。 Ultimately,the problem often a lack of communication. 袍 战 第五部分：书面表达（共两节，27分） 部 第一节阅读表达（共4小题，第71、72小题各2分，第73小题3分，第74小 题5分，共12分)阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 长 The Path to Success Success is a concept that holds different meanings for different people.For some,it 五 may be the accumulation of wealth,while for others,it could mean achieving career 家 milestones or academic excellence.There are also those who see success as leading a 前 happy life,having a harmonious family.or maintaining good relatonships with others. 款 Therefore,success does not have a universal standard;its definition varies from person 款 to person. However,despite the various interpretations of success,certain qualities and 翻 韵 approaches are shared by those who succeed.One key trait is perseverance.Achieving any significant accomplishment requires time and ertort.Many successtul people stand out not hecause they never faced setbacks,but because they did not give up when faced with difficulties.For example,Ihomas Edison,the famous inventor,encountered thousands ot talures before finally inventing the light bulb.Had be not possessed the spirit of perseverance,the invention of the light bulb might have been late for many years. Another crucial factor is setting clear goals since a well-defined goal provides direction and helps people stay focused on their pursuits.Psychological studies have shown a strong correlation between goal setting and the feeling of achievement.When people establish specific,realistic goals and work diligently towards them,their chances of success greatly increase.For instance,athletes who aim to improve their performance by setting small,achievable targets often experience greater progress than those who only dream of winning big competitions without a clear plan. 第9页共10页 In addition,continuous learning and adaptability play essential roles in achieving success.The modem world is developing rapidly,with new knowledge and technologies emerging constantly.Only those who keep leaming and updating their skills can stay competitive in such a fast-paced environment Take the example ofsuccessful entrepreneurs:many of them attribute their achievements to their ability to leamn from mistakes and adapt to changing market demands. While hard work,goal setting,and lifelong learning are significant,it is also important to admit the role of luck in success.Sometimes,being in the right place at the right time can open doors that were otherwise closed.However,luck alone is not enough:it must be combined with preparation and effort to truly make a difference. n conclusion,success is a multifacefed concept intluenced by a variety of factors. While the definition of success may differ from one person to another,perseverance, clear goal setting,and continuous leaming are universally acknowledged as essential traits for achieving it.By embracing these principles and remaining open to change, anyone can increase their chances of reaching their version of success. 71.Why is setting clear goals a crucial factor for success? 72.According to the passage,which essential elements are universally acknowledged to achieve success?(List two) 73.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. >Many successtul entrepreneurs who can stay competitive in such a fast-paced environmentthink their achievements are a result of their perseverance. 74.Do you agree with the statement"Luck plays a role in success"?Why or why not? 第二节书面表达（共15分) 75.假设你是红星中学高二(1)班班长李华，学校正开展以“成功“为主题的主题 班会，你班想邀请国际部交换生Cis来参加班会，请用英语给他写一封邮件，内 容包括： 1.班会时间和地点： 2.内容和活动安排。 注意：1.词数100左右： 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。· Dear Chris, Yours, LiHua 第10页共10页
