B At a high school in Indiana, a group of students are working on ideas to deal with climate change. One student, Murphy, suggests a large container filled with water that would heat up and produce steam (蒸汽) to power a car. Although the idea has limitations, climate scientist Ben Kravitz appreciates it, saying that steam power, while old, still works. Kravitz developed a lesson with Paul Goddard a research scientist, and Kirstin Milks, a high school science teacher. The lesson encourages students to think creatively about reducing pollution and solving global warming. Milks believes it’s important for students to not only understand the dangers of climate change but also feel confident to come up with solutions. She says, “These students will lead the future climate work.” The lesson covers the basics of climate change, explaining that burning coal, oil, and gas gives off carbon dioxide (CO2), the main cause of global warming. Kravitz stresses that reducing greenhouse gas emissions (is the only lasting solution, but new technologies, such as wind and solar energy, are needed to make progress. In the meantime, Kravitz and other scientists are exploring ways, such as climate engineering, to reduce the planet’s temperature. Climate engineering includes techniques like reflecting sunlight back into space or removing CO2 from the atmosphere. However, these ways come with risks, such as changing weather systems and rainfall patterns, leading to loss of biodiversity and impacting agriculture. Students are encouraged to think about such challenges when developing their ideas. Through this lesson, Milks hopes to develop in students both awareness and optimism (乐观), showing them that they can play a role in solving global issues. 4. What is Murphy’s idea? A. Design a special car. B. Power cars with steam. C. Discover new energy. D. Make a drinking machine. 5. Why was this lesson developed? A. To equip students for climate action. B. To discuss the benefits of using solar energy. C. To encourage students to stop using coal and gas. D. To explain climate change affects weather systems. 6. What can we know about climate engineering? A. It can absorb the sunlight. B. It can add CO2 to the atmosphere. C. It may enrich the biodiversity. D. It may have effects on agriculture. 7. What is a suitable title for the passage? A. The challenges of climate engineering. B. Students’ contributions to steam power. C. The development of climate-related technologies. D. Students’ creative ideas for a better climate future. C Have you ever been in a situation where you needed to do well but failed because of the pressure? You’re not alone. Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. The team first experimented with certain monkeys and set up a computer task for them. The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. During jackpot setting, the activity of the neurons (神经元) that help in movement planning decreased. This drop in such activity made the monkeys less prepared, leading to worse performance. The study showed a complex relationship between rewards and performance. The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. The research also looked into why motor preparation decreased under high pressure. It suggested that as the reward got bigger, the brain’s activity reached a peak and then started to decline. In conclusion, understanding why people and animals fail under pressure can help us develop better ways to manage stressful situations and perform better when it matters most. 8. Why was the “jackpot” reward used in the experiment? A. To create high-pressure situations. B. To train the problem-solving skills. C. To improve monkeys’ intelligence. D. To provide extra food for monkeys. 9. How did the researchers measure brain activity in monkeys? A. By observing their hobbies. B. By using a chip put in the brain. C. By giving them similar rewards. D. By monitoring their heart rate. 10. What does the “neural-bias hypothesis” suggest? A Rewards hardly affect brain function. B. Monkeys perform better under no pressure. C. Small rewards seldom improve performance. D. Too many rewards can cause bad performance. 11. What does the study focus on? A. Approaches to dealing with great stress. B. How rewards impact brain development. C. Links of pressure to performance failure. D. How good athletes face their challenges. D Talking about glasses, not just any kind but those that are kind to the planet, we mean the green glasses. Have you heard of glasses that look stylish, feel comfortable, and most importantly, don’t harm the environment? Let’s get to know more about the sustainable glasses. You might be surprised to learn how far your glasses are from green. They’re often made from plastic and metal, which use a lot of energy and resources to produce. The process of making them can be harmful to the environment. From the harmful chemicals used in the frames (镜框) to the energy needed to get them to you, there’s a lot that can be improved. As for the new type of glasses, we pay special attention to how the glasses are made. Companies that care about the environment will make sure their glasses last a long time, from when they start making them to when they’re no longer needed. This means they use materials that come from renewable sources rather than limit themselves to local materials. For example, they might use wood from forests that are managed well or recycled materials. They also use energy-saving machines and try to reduce waste. In a word, they make sure that the glasses are made in a responsible way. To our customers, green glasses are the best option for us to protect our eyes and the planet at the same time. By choosing these glasses, we’re helping the planet and making a positive change. The future of glasses is looking bright! The way glasses are made is changing, with green materials and methods. As more people become interested in green products and technology improves, there will be more green choices available. Choose green glasses that look great and help the planet. Be part of the change and see the future in a better way. 12. What does the underlined word “sustainable” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Limited. B. Eco-friendly. C. Expensive. D. Old-fashioned. 13. Which can best describe the new type of glasses? A. It uses plastic frames. B. It adopts the latest design. C. Its material is got locally. D. Its entire lifecycle is considered. 14. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of the glasses? A. Optimistic. B. Worried. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear. 15. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To inform the history of glasses production. B. To show the latest fashion trends in glasses. C. To persuade readers to choose the green glasses. D. To explain the challenges faced by glasses stores. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There have been times in your life when you may have almost no social interaction (社交) Feeling lonely can be bad for your mental and physical health ___16___ I’ve been using many of the methods described here to build a satisfying social life for myself.

Of course, I prefer to be their listeners, sharing their difficulty, worry, fear as well as struggle. I clearly remember an experience that began the journey of being a listener to my patients. Ten years ago, I was a medical student in a university. It happened when I was busy gathering data (资料) for my graduation paper on The Most Important Communication Skills to Patients. On a cold raining evening, I was in the ward (病房) searching for the final female patient, Mrs. Green, to complete my paper. Holding a patient questionnaire, I walked towards her room. I didn’t see any doctors or nurses; the ward was quiet. With the dim light, I could see heavy raindrops through the window. She was lying on bed, still very weak, with no relatives around. I sat down on a chair next to her bed, and began to introduce myself politely. Luckily, she agreed with a nod. Soon she started talking about her story. She had three children in primary school, who were staying with a neighbour then. Her husband died a year ago and she was the only breadwinner of her family as a cleaner. I had no idea how to comfort her. Looking into her eyes, I tried my best to remember the communication skills that I had learned earlier. But still my mind was blank. I regretted not paying more attention. I could do nothing but hold her hands, while listening to her quietly. Suddenly I realized she might not expect any reply from me. My listening alone was enough. Our conversation lasted for about 50 minutes. I could feel her difficulty, her worry, her fear as well as her struggle. Finally, she let go of my hand, with a sincere thank you. I stood up, covered her with a blanket, and waved goodbye. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 A few days later, I returned to see Mrs. Green. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 BCBCC 6-10 BACAC 11-15 ABBAB 16-20 CABAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ ★优高联考 高一英语试题 2024. 11 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试题卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每个小题答案后，用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。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 1.

You’re not alone. Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. The team first experimented with certain monkeys and set up a computer task for them. The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. During jackpot setting, the activity of the neurons (神经元) that help in movement planning decreased. This drop in such activity made the monkeys less prepared, leading to worse performance. The study showed a complex relationship between rewards and performance. The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. The research also looked into why motor preparation decreased under high pressure. It suggested that as the reward got bigger, the brain’s activity reached a peak and then started to decline. In conclusion, understanding why people and animals fail under pressure can help us develop better ways to manage stressful situations and perform better when it matters most. 8. Why was the “jackpot” reward used in the experiment? A. To create high-pressure situations. B. To train the problem-solving skills. C. To improve monkeys’ intelligence. D. To provide extra food for monkeys. 9. How did the researchers measure brain activity in monkeys? A. By observing their hobbies. B. By using a chip put in the brain. C. By giving them similar rewards. D. By monitoring their heart rate. 10. What does the “neural-bias hypothesis” suggest? A. Rewards hardly affect brain function. B. Monkeys perform better under no pressure. C. Small rewards seldom improve performance. D. Too many rewards can cause bad performance. 11. What does the study focus on? A. Approaches to dealing with great stress. B. How rewards impact brain development. C. Links of pressure to performance failure. D. How good athletes face their challenges. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现压力与大脑运动准备区域活动下降有关，揭示了奖励和表现关系复杂，小奖励可提升表现但过多则会使表现更糟。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. (猴子们在屏幕上移动光标，以获得从小到中、大，甚至是一个罕见的大“头奖”，这是为了创造高压环境，类似于运动员在关键时刻所面临的情况)”可知，在实验中，“头奖”被用来制造高压环境。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. (为了观察大脑活动的变化，研究人员将一个小芯片放入猴子的运动皮层，这是大脑中控制运动的部分)”可知，研究人员通过在猴子大脑中植入芯片来测量大脑活动。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. (该团队发现，虽然小的奖励可以提高表现，但太多的奖励实际上会让它变得更糟。这被称为“神经偏差假说”，该假说认为，过大的压力会破坏大脑的最佳功能)”可知，该假说认为过多的奖励会导致糟糕的表现。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. (卡内基梅隆大学的科学家Steven Chase研究了大脑在压力下会发生什么。实验表明，压力与准备运动的大脑区域活动下降有关，就像运动员在压力下失败一样)”可知，该研究与压力下的大脑活动相关，研究结果显示的是压力和大脑活动下降意味着的失败之间的关联。由此可知，研究的重点是压力与表现失常之间的联系。故选C项。 D Talking about glasses, not just any kind but those that are kind to the planet, we mean the green glasses. Have you heard of glasses that look stylish, feel comfortable, and most importantly, don’t harm the environment? Let’s get to know more about the sustainable glasses. You might be surprised to learn how far your glasses are from green. They’re often made from plastic and metal, which use a lot of energy and resources to produce. The process of making them can be harmful to the environment. From the harmful chemicals used in the frames (镜框) to the energy needed to get them to you, there’s a lot that can be improved. As for the new type of glasses, we pay special attention to how the glasses are made. Companies that care about the environment will make sure their glasses last a long time, from when they start making them to when they’re no longer needed. This means they use materials that come from renewable sources rather than limit themselves to local materials. For example, they might use wood from forests that are managed well or recycled materials. They also use energy-saving machines and try to reduce waste. In a word, they make sure that the glasses are made in a responsible way. To our customers, green glasses are the best option for us to protect our eyes and the planet at the same time. By choosing these glasses, we’re helping the planet and making a positive change. The future of glasses is looking bright! The way glasses are made is changing, with green materials and methods. As more people become interested in green products and technology improves, there will be more green choices available. Choose green glasses that look great and help the planet.

Patients trust me and would like to share their stories with me. Of course, I prefer to be their listeners, sharing their difficulty, worry, fear as well as struggle. I clearly remember an experience that began the journey of being a listener to my patients. Ten years ago, I was a medical student in a university. It happened when I was busy gathering data (资料) for my graduation paper on The Most Important Communication Skills to Patients. On a cold raining evening, I was in the ward (病房) searching for the final female patient, Mrs. Green, to complete my paper. Holding a patient questionnaire, I walked towards her room. I didn’t see any doctors or nurses; the ward was quiet. With the dim light, I could see heavy raindrops through the window. She was lying on bed, still very weak, with no relatives around. I sat down on a chair next to her bed, and began to introduce myself politely. Luckily, she agreed with a nod. Soon she started talking about her story. She had three children in primary school, who were staying with a neighbour then. Her husband died a year ago and she was the only breadwinner of her family as a cleaner. I had no idea how to comfort her. Looking into her eyes, I tried my best to remember the communication skills that I had learned earlier. But still my mind was blank. I regretted not paying more attention. I could do nothing but hold her hands, while listening to her quietly. Suddenly I realized she might not expect any reply from me. My listening alone was enough. Our conversation lasted for about 50 minutes. I could feel her difficulty, her worry, her fear as well as her struggle. Finally, she let go of my hand, with a sincere thank you. I stood up, covered her with a blanket, and waved goodbye. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 A few days later, I returned to see Mrs. Green. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 A few days later, I returned to see Mrs. Green. I found many positive changes on her. She became more willing to follow the treatment plan and more hopeful about getting better. She began to believe that she could overcome the illness with the right treatment and support, which made a big difference in her recovery process. This experience also changed me. It made me understand that listening was a powerful tool. In a world full of technology and rushed decisions, taking the time to listen can have a huge impact on a patient’s well-being. It teaches me that every patient has a story, and by listening to that story, we can provide better care and help them on their road to recovery. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作为医生的作者成为病人倾听者的旅程，十年前作者还是一名医学院的学生，忙于为论文收集数据，在一个下着雨的寒冷夜晚，作者耐心地倾听最后一位病人格林太太的遭遇，作者不知如何安慰只能握着她的手，静静地倾听，最后挥手告别。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几天后，我又去看格林太太。”可知，第一段可描写格林太太的变化以及这件事对作者的影响。 2. 续写线索：病人发生积极的变化——改变了作者——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①发现：find/discover ②战胜：overcome/defeat ③提供：provide/offer 情绪类 ①积极：ffind many positive changes on her/find her change positively ②抱有希望：hopeful about/optimistic about 【点睛】【高分句型1】She began to believe that she could overcome the illness with the right treatment and support, which made a big difference in her recovery process. （由连接词that引导的宾语从句和关系代词which引导的非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】It made me understand that listening was a powerful tool.（由连接词that引导的宾语从句） 听力1-5 BCBCC 6-10 BACAC 11-15 ABBAB 16-20 CABAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
