The following are three typical festivals. Fête des Vignerons, Vevey The Fête des Vignerons takes place every 20 years in Vevey, which is full of activities, history and centuries-old traditions and was the first Swiss intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) included into the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016. The latest festival was held from 18 July to 11 August 2019. Fête de la Musique, Geneva Fête de la Musique runs annually, taking over the streets of Lausanne every summer. Over 50 places show off musicians from across the globe, celebrating a range of music. It is worth noting that most roads are blocked during the festival, and it is best to travel by public transport. The Geneva Fête de la Musique this year was held from 22-27 June. Grindelwald World Snow Festival Every year sculptors from all over the world gather in Grindelwald. During this six-day festival, the streets of the snowy town become an awesome museum with temporary creations decorating every corner. The white statues are greatly attractive to both locals and tourists. 1. What do we know about Fête des Vignerons? A. It lasts more than a month. B. It is held on a yearly basis. C. It got UNESCO recognition. D. It is a tangible cultural heritage. 2. What do Fête de la Musique and Grindelwald World Snow Festival have in common? A. They cause heavy traffic. B. They attract global sculptors. C. They last the same length of time. D. They are held in small towns. 3. Which column of a magazine is the passage most probably from? A. Culture. B. Art. C. Geography. D. Business. B My hands were shaking uncontrollably. I tried incredibly hard to focus on the words that I spent hours putting down on paper. I tried to conquer my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life. During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting. Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember. Then in my mid-thirties, I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters. At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work. It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out. Science has made this country a place where dreams come true — this is why we all need to protect science. In addition, as a science writer, I try to get readers to understand how science is related to their daily lives. So I ended up on that frightening stage on that sunny Saturday in April — Earth Day. Despite the body shakes and fear, I persevered. That day, I looked out into the crowd of like-minded science supporters and I felt comfort. Reaching that milestone goal of getting through a speech truly changed me. At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible. The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures. 4. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “nemesis” in Para.1? A. Advantage B. Annoyance C. Preference. D. Strength. 5. How did the author behave about public speaking after leaving Toastmasters? A. He began to feel less worried. B. He became a polished speaker. C. He remained a shy speaker. D. Things became worse for him. 6. What made the author want to speak out on Earth Day? A It was a good chance to learn science. B. He must rise up to defend his profession. C. It was a project organized by Toastmasters. D. He couldn’t have people attacking science. 7. What lesson did the author draw from his successful speech? A. Passion can motive us to achieve the unachievable. B. No difficulty can be overcome with great effort. C. Science can lead us to make wonderful changes. D. Frustration can be stepping stones to success. C Have you ever wondered how your favorite NBA team received its famous name? All NBA teams have an interesting story or a history behind their names. Some of the names reflected the city’s culture or history, others came from previous owners and many were selected through “Name the Team” contests. For teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and the Utah Jazz, the names were not always a reflection of the city. Even though Los Angeles has no lakes, the Lakers name has been a city treasure for almost 40 years. Before going to Los Angeles, the team originated in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 1947, team officials changed the name to the Lakers to reflect the Minnesota State’s nickname, “Land of 10,000 Lakes”. The team name went unchanged after moving to Los Angeles in 1960. Because the Utah’s team originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, it was called the Jazz. In 1974, New Orleans club officials chose the name to represent the city for its reputation as the “Jazz Capital of the World”. The name stayed with the team even after they found a new home in Salt Lake City, Utah in 1979. The original owner of the Chicago Bulls, Richard Klein, named the team the Bulls. He picked the name because a fighting bull is relentless and never quits. Klein, who founded the club in 1966, believed these qualities were necessary for a championship team and hoped his Chicago athletes would live up to the team name. The Bulls, the winner of the six NBA championships, has definitely followed the belief. In 1967, the Indiana Pacers selected their team name in a different way from most other teams. Their decision was based on what they wanted to achieve in the NBA. Team officials chose the Pacers name because the organization wanted to set the “pace” in professional basketball. 8. Why is the Los Angeles’ team named “the Lakers”? A. The name was selected from a “Name the Team” contest. B. The name shows that Los Angeles is a city with various lakes. C. It was named after a city treasure, which had a long history. D. The team got this name in another state, which had a lot of lakes. 9. Which of the following refers to the “Jazz Capital of the World”? A. New Orleans. B. Salt Lake City. C. Los Angeles. D. Minneapolis. 10. Which team was named in a unique way compared to others? A. The Chicago Bulls. B. The Indiana Pacers. C. The Jazz. D. The Los Angeles Lakers. 11. Why did Richard Klein name the Chicago’s team the Bulls? A. He had guessed the success of the team. B. People in Chicago used to like watching bullfighting. C. He wished the team to have the qualities of fighting bulls. D. Chicago was then a city famous for fighting bulls. D Each year, the world loses about 10 million hectares of forest—at area about the size of Iceland — because of cutting down trees. At that rate, some scientists predict the world’s forests could disappear in 100 to 200 years. To handle it, now researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have pioneered a technique to generate wood-like plant materials sin a lab. This makes it possible to “grow” a wooden product without cutting down trees. In the lab, the researchers first take cells from the leaves of a young plant. These cells are cultured in liquid medium for two days, then moved to another medium which contains nutrients and two different hormones (激素). By adjusting the bormone levels, the researchers can tune the physical and mechanical qualities of the cells: New the researchers use a 3D printer to shape the cell-based material, and let the shaped material grow in the dark for three months. Finally, the researchers dehydrate (使脱水) the material, and then evaluate its qualities. They found that lower bormone levels lead to plant materials with more rounded, open cells of lower density (密度), while higher hormone levels contribute to the growth of plant materials with smaller but denser cell structures. Lower or higher density of cell structures makes the plant materials softer or more rigid, helping the materials grow with different wood-like characteristics. What’s more, it’s to be noted that the research process is about 100 times faster than the time it takes for a tree to grow to maturity! Research of this kind is ground-breaking. “This work demonstrates the great power of a technology,” says lead researcher, Jeffrey Berenstab. “The real opportunity here is to be at its best with what you use and how you use it. This technology can be tuned to meet the requirements you give about shapes, sizes, rigidity, and forms. It enables us to grow’ any wooden product in a way that traditional agricultural methods can’t achieve.” 12. Why do researchers at MIT perform the research? A. To grow more trees. B. To reduce tree losses. C. To protect plant diversity. D. To predict forest disappearance. 13. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the lab research? A. Its scientific origins. B. Its theoretical basis C. Its usual difficulties. D. Its main processes 14. What does the finding suggest about the plant materials? A. They are better than naturally grown plants. B. Their growth speed determines their characteristics. C. The hormone levels affect their rigidity. D. Their cells’ shapes mainly rely on their density. 15. Why is the research path-breaking according to Berenstain? A. It uses new biological materials in lab experiments. B. It has a significant impact on worldwide plant growth. C. It revolutionizes the way to make wooden products. D. It challenges traditional scientific theories in forestry. 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You have an important exam in a few days and you’re not feeling prepared.

Wherever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did. Her deskmate, Landy, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was teased by her classmates, who were always chanting “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti (意大利面)”. Every time Landy heard those silly chants, she could feel her face burst into flames. God knew how she wished the ground to crack and swallow her! Catherine didn't really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular. One weekend, Catherine went over to her grandfather for Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives on a farm at the opposite end of town, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Catherine noticed a peculiar one. Curling (蜷缩) in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare! “What's the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens would act. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking(啄) it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “Oh, what a poor little thing!” Catherine let out a sigh as she held the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in its bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look. Back in school, Catherine told the cool kids about the chicken. “It's looking healthy,” she said proudly. “It's fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around the garden, and...” Everyone was entertained by Catherine’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter lingering around the classroom. 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。 Then Catherine spotted Landy sitting by herself in a corner. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, regardless of what they said. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 蓬溪中学高2022级第五学期第二次质量检测 英 语 试 题 本试卷满分 ：150分 考试时间：120分钟 注意事项： 1. 答题前, 考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚, 将条形码准确粘贴在考生信息条形码粘贴区。 2. 答选择题时，必须使用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。答非选择题时，必须使用0.5毫米黑色笔迹的签字笔，将答案书写在答题卡规定的位置上。 3. 所有题目必须在答题卡上作答，在试题卷上答题无效。 4. 考试结束后，只将答题卡交回。 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，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 following are three typical festivals.(在瑞士，全年都会举办各种独特的节日，每个节日都为当地人和游客提供独特的文化体验和难忘的时刻。以下是三个典型的节日。)”可知，文章主要介绍了瑞士极具特色的三个节日及其庆祝习俗和文化特色，所以可推测文章最有可能出自杂志的文化专栏。故选A项。 B My hands were shaking uncontrollably. I tried incredibly hard to focus on the words that I spent hours putting down on paper. I tried to conquer my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life. During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting. Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember. Then in my mid-thirties, I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters. At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work. It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out. Science has made this country a place where dreams come true — this is why we all need to protect science. In addition, as a science writer, I try to get readers to understand how science is related to their daily lives. So I ended up on that frightening stage on that sunny Saturday in April — Earth Day. Despite the body shakes and fear, I persevered. That day, I looked out into the crowd of like-minded science supporters and I felt comfort. Reaching that milestone goal of getting through a speech truly changed me. At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible. The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures. 4. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “nemesis” in Para.1? A. Advantage B. Annoyance C. Preference. D. Strength. 5. How did the author behave about public speaking after leaving Toastmasters? A. He began to feel less worried. B. He became a polished speaker. C. He remained a shy speaker. D. Things became worse for him. 6. What made the author want to speak out on Earth Day? A. It was a good chance to learn science. B. He must rise up to defend his profession. C. It was a project organized by Toastmasters. D. He couldn’t have people attacking science. 7. What lesson did the author draw from his successful speech? A. Passion can motive us to achieve the unachievable. B. No difficulty can be overcome with great effort. C. Science can lead us to make wonderful changes. D. Frustration can be stepping stones to success. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者一直以来害怕在公共场合发表演讲，一次偶然的机会，他决定为捍卫科学挺身而出发表演讲并从此战胜了自己，这让作者领悟到，激情能够燃起心中的火焰，让自己做到曾经不可能完成的事。 【4题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting.(在大学期间和我最初的几份工作中，当我必须做报告或主持会议时，我会感到异常紧张。)”可知，作者在大学期间和参加工作之初，一到开会或者需要做公开演讲的时候就会紧张。由此可以推断，当众演讲是让作者烦恼的事情，划线词的含义是“让人恼火的事”，与annoyance意思相近。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work.(在每次会议上，我们都被评分，被迫与其他演讲者竞争奖项。你可能会认为我在经历这些之后会成为一名出色的演说家，但这些经历似乎不起作用。)”可知，作者参加了很多比赛，但是仍然是一个害羞的演讲者。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out.(直到最近，当科学和科学机构在大流行期间因不公平的原因受到攻击时，我才决定必须大声疾呼。)”可知，不想让人们攻击科学让作者决定发声。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible. The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures.(在将近四十岁的时候，我明白了激情可以点燃我心中的火焰，让我去做我做梦都认为不可能的事情。导致我演讲的黑暗一定会带来新的机会和冒险。)”可知，作者意识到激情能够燃烧内心的火焰，让我们去做做梦都认为不可能的事情，也就是说作者认为激情可以激励我们去实现无法实现的目标。故选A。 C Have you ever wondered how your favorite NBA team received its famous name? All NBA teams have an interesting story or a history behind their names. Some of the names reflected the city’s culture or history, others came from previous owners and many were selected through “Name the Team” contests. For teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and the Utah Jazz, the names were not always a reflection of the city. Even though Los Angeles has no lakes, the Lakers name has been a city treasure for almost 40 years. Before going to Los Angeles, the team originated in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 1947, team officials changed the name to the Lakers to reflect the Minnesota State’s nickname, “Land of 10,000 Lakes”. The team name went unchanged after moving to Los Angeles in 1960. Because the Utah’s team originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, it was called the Jazz. In 1974, New Orleans club officials chose the name to represent the city for its reputation as the “Jazz Capital of the World”. The name stayed with the team even after they found a new home in Salt Lake City, Utah in 1979. The original owner of the Chicago Bulls, Richard Klein, named the team the Bulls. He picked the name because a fighting bull is relentless and never quits. Klein, who founded the club in 1966, believed these qualities were necessary for a championship team and hoped his Chicago athletes would live up to the team name. The Bulls, the winner of the six NBA championships, has definitely followed the belief. In 1967, the Indiana Pacers selected their team name in a different way from most other teams. Their decision was based on what they wanted to achieve in the NBA. Team officials chose the Pacers name because the organization wanted to set the “pace” in professional basketball. 8. Why is the Los Angeles’ team named “the Lakers”? A. The name was selected from a “Name the Team” contest. B. The name shows that Los Angeles is a city with various lakes. C. It was named after a city treasure, which had a long history. D. The team got this name in another state, which had a lot of lakes. 9. Which of the following refers to the “Jazz Capital of the World”? A. New Orleans. B. Salt Lake City. C. Los Angeles. D. Minneapolis. 10. Which team was named in a unique way compared to others? A. The Chicago Bulls. B. The Indiana Pacers. C. The Jazz. D. The Los Angeles Lakers. 11. Why did Richard Klein name the Chicago’s team the Bulls? A. He had guessed the success of the team. B. People in Chicago used to like watching bullfighting. C. He wished the team to have the qualities of fighting bulls. D. Chicago was then a city famous for fighting bulls. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四支NBA球队的队名背后的故事。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Before going to Los Angeles, the team originated in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 1947, team officials changed the name to the Lakers to reflect the Minnesota State’s nickname, “Land of 10,000 Lakes”. (在去洛杉矶之前，这支球队起源于明尼苏达州的明尼阿波利斯。1947年，球队官方将球队名称改为湖人队，以反映明尼苏达州的绰号“万湖之州”)”可知，“湖人队”的名字来自另一个有很多湖泊的州——明尼苏达州。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Because the Utah’s team originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, it was called the Jazz. In 1974, New Orleans club officials chose the name to represent the city for its reputation as the “Jazz Capital of the World”. (因为犹他队起源于路易斯安那州的新奥尔良，所以被称为爵士队。1974年，新奥尔良俱乐部的高层选择了这个名字来代表这座城市，因为它享有“世界爵士之都”的美誉)”可知，“世界爵士之都”指的是新奥尔良。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In 1967, the Indiana Pacers selected their team name in a different way from most other teams. Their decision was based on what they wanted to achieve in the NBA. (1967年，印第安纳步行者队以一种不同于大多数其他球队的方式选择了他们的队名。他们的决定是基于他们想在NBA取得的成就)”可知，与其他球队相比，印第安纳步行者队以一种独特的方式命名。故选B项。 11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“He picked the name because a fighting bull is relentless and never quits. Klein, who founded the club in 1966, believed these qualities were necessary for a championship team and hoped his Chicago athletes would live up to the team name. (他之所以取这个名字，是因为斗牛是坚韧的，从不放弃。Klein于1966年创办了这家俱乐部，他相信这些品质对于一支冠军球队来说是必要的，并希望他的芝加哥运动员能够不负球队的名字)”可知，Richard Klein将球队命名为“公牛队”是因为他希望这支球队具有斗牛的品质。故选C项。 D Each year, the world loses about 10 million hectares of forest—at area about the size of Iceland — because of cutting down trees. At that rate, some scientists predict the world’s forests could disappear in 100 to 200 years. To handle it, now researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have pioneered a technique to generate wood-like plant materials sin a lab. This makes it possible to “grow” a wooden product without cutting down trees. In the lab, the researchers first take cells from the leaves of a young plant. These cells are cultured in liquid medium for two days, then moved to another medium which contains nutrients and two different hormones (激素). By adjusting the bormone levels, the researchers can tune the physical and mechanical qualities of the cells: New the researchers use a 3D printer to shape the cell-based material, and let the shaped material grow in the dark for three months. Finally, the researchers dehydrate (使脱水) the material, and then evaluate its qualities. They found that lower bormone levels lead to plant materials with more rounded, open cells of lower density (密度), while higher hormone levels contribute to the growth of plant materials with smaller but denser cell structures. Lower or higher density of cell structures makes the plant materials softer or more rigid, helping the materials grow with different wood-like characteristics. What’s more, it’s to be noted that the research process is about 100 times faster than the time it takes for a tree to grow to maturity! Research of this kind is ground-breaking. “This work demonstrates the great power of a technology,” says lead researcher, Jeffrey Berenstab. “The real opportunity here is to be at its best with what you use and how you use it. This technology can be tuned to meet the requirements you give about shapes, sizes, rigidity, and forms. It enables us to grow’ any wooden product in a way that traditional agricultural methods can’t achieve.” 12. Why do researchers at MIT perform the research? A. To grow more trees. B. To reduce tree losses. C. To protect plant diversity. D. To predict forest disappearance. 13. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the lab research? A. Its scientific origins. B. Its theoretical basis C. Its usual difficulties. D. Its main processes 14. What does the finding suggest about the plant materials? A. They are better than naturally grown plants. B. Their growth speed determines their characteristics. C. The hormone levels affect their rigidity. D. Their cells’ shapes mainly rely on their density. 15. Why is the research path-breaking according to Berenstain? A. It uses new biological materials in lab experiments. B. It has a significant impact on worldwide plant growth. C. It revolutionizes the way to make wooden products. D. It challenges traditional scientific theories in forestry. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了为了避免砍伐树木，麻省理工学院的研究人员开创了一种技术，在实验室里生产类似木材的植物材料。解释了其实验过程以及其积极意义。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Each year, the world loses about 10 million hectares of forest—at area about the size of Iceland — because of cutting down trees. At that rate, some scientists predict the world’s forests could disappear in 100 to 200 years. To handle it, now researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have pioneered a technique to generate wood-like plant materials sin a lab.(由于砍伐树木，世界每年损失约1000万公顷的森林——面积约为冰岛的大小。一些科学家预测，按照这个速度，世界上的森林可能会在100到200年内消失。为了解决这个问题，麻省理工学院的研究人员开创了一种技术，在实验室里制造出类似木材的植物材料。)”可知，麻省理工学院的研究人员进行这项研究是为了减少树木损失。故选B。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“In the lab, the researchers first take cells from the leaves of a young plant. These cells are cultured in liquid medium for two days, then moved to another medium which contains nutrients and two different hormones (激素). By adjusting the bormone levels, the researchers can tune the physical and mechanical qualities of the cells: New the researchers use a 3D printer to shape the cell-based material, and let the shaped material grow in the dark for three months. Finally, the researchers dehydrate (使脱水) the material, and then evaluate its qualities.(在实验室里，研究人员首先从幼小植物的叶子上提取细胞。这些细胞在液体培养基中培养两天，然后转移到另一种含有营养物质和两种不同激素的培养基中。通过调节激素水平，研究人员可以调整细胞的物理和机械质量:新的研究人员使用3D打印机来塑造细胞材料，并让成型的材料在黑暗中生长三个月。最后，研究人员将材料脱水，然后评估其质量。)”可知，第二段主要告诉我们关于实验室研究的主要过程。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They found that lower bormone levels lead to plant materials with more rounded, open cells of lower density (密度), while higher hormone levels contribute to the growth of plant materials with smaller but denser cell structures. Lower or higher density of cell structures makes the plant materials softer or more rigid, helping the materials grow with different wood-like characteristics.(他们发现，较低的激素水平会导致植物材料的细胞更圆、更开放，密度更低，而较高的激素水平会导致植物材料的细胞结构更小，但密度更大。细胞结构的密度或高或低，使植物材料更柔软或更坚硬，帮助材料生长出不同的类木特性。)”可知，激素水平影响植物材料的硬度。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“This technology can be tuned to meet the requirements you give about shapes, sizes, rigidity, and forms. It enables us to grow’ any wooden product in a way that traditional agricultural methods can’t achieve.(该技术可以调整以满足您对形状、大小、刚性和形式的要求。它使我们能够以传统农业方法无法实现的方式种植任何木制品。)”可知，Berenstain认为这项研究具有开创性是因为它革新了制作木制品的方法。故选C。 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You have an important exam in a few days and you’re not feeling prepared.

But##Yet 44. adoption 45. that 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了AR技术在教学中的作用，一方面该技术会使得课堂更具活力，但另一方面人们也担心该技术会影响学生的专注度。 【36题详解】 考查时态。句意：在过去的几年里，它已经显示出彻底改变我们生活的力量。根据时间状语During the past few years可知，时态为现在完成时，主语it和动词reveal之间存在主动关系，单数，所以谓语动词用has。故填has revealed。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：AR应用程序和设备现在可以作为教育辅助工具，如果使用得当，可以让学生以一种互动和参与的方式学习。句中已有谓语动词，所以用非谓语动词形式。主语AR apps and devices与use之间存在被动关系，所以用过去分词作状语。故填used。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它给其他学科带来同样的生命力的潜力同样充满希望。名词potential之后用不定式作后置定语。构成固定搭配：the potential to do sth.做某事的潜力。故填to bring。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：例如，在地理课上，AR可以让学生不受时间和地点的限制，看到令人惊叹的自然现象。固定搭配：without/beyond the limitations不受……的限制。故填without或beyond。 【40题详解】 考查名词的数。句意：在历史课上，学生可以接触历史人物。名词figure为可数名词，根据句意指的是多个历史人物，所以用复数形式。故填figures。 【41题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在教育中支持增强现实技术的人还强调它在偏远地区的实用性，因为那里的学生不容易去博物馆或科学展览。句中先行词为remote locations，在定语从句中担当地点状语，所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。 【42题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：尽管在教育中使用AR有许多优势，但并不是每个人都相信这是一个积极的发展。根据上下文可知，时态为一般现在时；主语为everybody，单数，和动词convince之间存在被动关系，构成短语：be convinced that相信……。故填is convinced。 【43题详解】 考查连词。句意：但实际上，一旦学生们习惯了这些3D投影，他们就能重新专注于手头的主题。前一句：批评人士指出，学生们太专注于3D显示器，以至于他们没有认真上课；后一句：一旦学生们习惯了这些3D投影，他们就能重新专注于手头的主题。两句话之间存在转折关系，出现在句首，首字母大写。故填But/Yet。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：很明显，教育工作者采用AR技术对所有相关人员来说都是一个积极的发展。根据空前的the以及空后的of可知，空处为adopt的名词形式作主语。故填adoption。 【45题详解】 考查强调句型。句意：只有当我们拥抱这种技术创新时，我们才能了解它们的全部潜力并加以开发。强调句型：It is+被强调部分+that+句子的其余成分，本句被强调的是when引导的时间状语从句。故填that。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 书面表达(满分15分) 46. 假设你是李华，你的英国朋友Emily来信说她非常喜欢中国的民族舞(folk dance)，并打算最近来中国学习民族舞，想请你帮她推荐一位舞蹈老师。请你根据以下要点给她写一封信，推荐一位老师。内容包括： 1.介绍你所推荐的老师； 2.推荐该老师的原因； 3.祝愿她拜师成功。 注意： 1.词数80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Emily, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Emily, Glad to hear that you are going to learn Chinese folk dance in China, I’m more than happy to recommend an excellent teacher Miss Chen to you.

(使用了which引导非限制性定语从句) 第二节 (满分25分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Catherine was the coolest kid in her class. Wherever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did. Her deskmate, Landy, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was teased by her classmates, who were always chanting “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti (意大利面)”. Every time Landy heard those silly chants, she could feel her face burst into flames. God knew how she wished the ground to crack and swallow her! Catherine didn't really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular. One weekend, Catherine went over to her grandfather for Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives on a farm at the opposite end of town, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Catherine noticed a peculiar one. Curling (蜷缩) in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare! “What's the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens would act. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking(啄) it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “Oh, what a poor little thing!” Catherine let out a sigh as she held the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in its bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look. Back in school, Catherine told the cool kids about the chicken. “It's looking healthy,” she said proudly. “It's fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around the garden, and...” Everyone was entertained by Catherine’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter lingering around the classroom. 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。 Then Catherine spotted Landy sitting by herself in a corner. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, regardless of what they said. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then Catherine spotted Landy sitting by herself in a corner. She kept her head down with her eyes fixed on the floor as usual. It hit Catherine that the pecking order worked in school, too. Landy was just like the poor little chicken, being teased and ignored by her classmates, merely due to her special height. “It’s time for me to make an apology to Landy.” Catherine thought to herself. No sooner had she made up her mind than she announced it to the cool kids surrounding her. Astonished at what she said, all the kids burst out screaming, “Talking to the long spaghetti? Are you crazy?”     But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, regardless of what they said. “Hi, Landy. I’m sorry about the spaghetti thing.” Catherine murmured an apology, her face reddening. “I know it hurts you. Can you forgive us?” She figured Landy might just walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and nodded yes. Catherine wiped away her tears, giving her a warm hug. Moved by the scene, the other kids also came to offer their sincere apologies to Landy. From that day on, no one made up silly chants about Landy, and Catherine also gained an important life lesson that everyone should be treated equally no matter how special he or she was. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Catherine一开始在班上看到同学取笑自己的同桌Landy时，没什么反应。但后来去爷爷家过感恩节，看到一只小鸡由于与其他鸡不同而被啄，联想到了自己的同桌，后来带领班上同学向同桌Landy道歉的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“这时凯瑟琳看见兰蒂独自坐在一个角落里。”可知，第一段可描写Catherine注意到同桌Landy一个人坐在角落里之后的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“但是凯瑟琳不管他们说什么，直接向兰蒂走去。”可知，第二段可描写Catherine带着同学向Landy道歉后，Landy与其他同学的反应。 2. 续写线索：注意到Landy——联想到Landy的处境——决定道歉——道歉——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①低着头：keep her head down/hold her head down ②盯着地板：eyes fixed on the floor/eyes focused on the floor ③取笑：tease/laugh at 情绪类 ①吃惊的、惊讶的：astonished/surprised/shocked ②感动的：moved/touched ③真诚的：sincere/genuine 【点睛】[高分句型1]No sooner had she made up her mind than she announced it to the cool kids surrounding her.(运用了no sooner…than…引导的时间状语从句和部分倒装) [高分句型2]From that day on, no one made up silly chants about Landy, and Catherine also gained an important life lesson that everyone should be treated equally no matter how special he or she was.(运用了no matter how引导让步状语从句和that引导的同位语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
