Here is a look at some top products presented at CES 2024. Robot that adds walking power WIRobotics introduced a wearable robot that provides walking assistance to users. The company’s WIM model is designed for anyone who needs an extra “push” when walking. An online description explains the robot can help individuals “walk farther, faster and healthier”. The price for such assistance is high, though, with the WIM selling for about $2,500. Body power to charge a phone Sports equipment developer LifeSpan introduced an exercise bicycle-desk combination that uses human power to charge phones or other devices. The Ampera bike is designed to be used with a “standing” desk. LifeSpan says the bike can produce up to 65 watts of electricity per hour. Home-made ice cream in two minutes The ColdSnap company introduced a machine that can make single servings of ice cream in about two minutes. The machine uses small containers, called pods, just like Keurig coffeemakers. The company points out the pods for its ColdSnap machine can be kept at room temperature, saving energy costs. The machines can be taken anywhere and are simple to operate. Smart mirror for better mental health French health product developer Baracoda presented what it was described as “the world’s first AI-powered smart mirror for mental wellness”.

The Hangzhou Asian Games proved no exception. When the 48-year-old Uzbek gymnast appeared in the Asiad women’s gymnastics qualification (资格赛) at Huanglong Gymnasium, thousands of people called for “Qiu Ma”, which translates to “Mother Chusovitina”. A lot of reporters waited in the mixed zone, hoping for an interview opportunity. “I’m touched by Chusovitina’s story. She tried to save her son and just never gave up,” said Zhang Anqi, a Hangzhou local who attended the event. “I am lucky to see her here in my home city. She is beautiful both as an athlete and as a mother,” Zhang added. After completing her vault (跳马), Chusovitina blew a kiss to the audience and formed a “heart” with her hands. “It is the love and support of the people that keep me going and give me the strength to achieve more,” Chusovitina said.“I am not very satisfied with my performance tonight. Actually, I was a little over-excited,” she added. Chusovitina has a storied history at the Asian Games, having won eight medals, including two golds in 2002. This year, she’s targeting a medal in the vault. “I will increase the difficulty in the final,” she shared. When Chusovitina’s son was found to have leukemia (白血病) in 2002, she accepted German nationality and competed at global events for a higher income and better medical treatment. Her heartfelt words, “I dare not grow old until you are well,” touched many people. After her son’s recovery, Chusovitina continued her gymnastics journey out of deep love for the sport. Though she announced her retirement after the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, she decided to return shortly after. “The biggest motivation (动力) is my desire. I want to perform. I love gymnastics. I’m just doing what I love, so why should I stop?” Chusovitina said. 24. What can we know about Chusovitina from the first two paragraphs? A. She is very popular. B. She is a gymnastics coach. C. She visited Hangzhou for an interview. D. She is called “Qiu Ma” for her poor performance. 25. What does Zhang think of Chusovitina’s story? A. Interesting. B. Moving. C. Exciting. D. Surprising. 26. Why did Chusovitina choose to compete for Germany? A. To treat her son. B. To start a new life. C. To win more medals. D. To get better training. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Never Stop Realizing Your Dreams B. Friendship First, Competition Second C. A Great Mum Trains Hard for Her Son’s Illness D. Ageless “Qiu Ma” Wows Audiences at Hangzhou Asiad C Trying to figure out if your friend is angry? You may look at his or her face. However, a new study finds when people are at the peak of joy or despair, their body language is a more reliable indicator of their emotions than their face. “You can’t tell from the face alone if something good is going on or bad going on. When people see the faces alone, they’re kind of lost,” said Julliel Hievet, a psychologist at the Hebrew University. “The body maintains a clear signal of positive and negative.” Hievet also noted that most researches on reading emotions focused on the face. A few studies had shown people rely on body language to read emotions when it conflicts with someone’s facial expression but those studies used trained actors in poses. His research team wanted to see how people use body language to read intense emotions. To do so, his team gathered dozens of images of top tennis players at the moment they won or lost critical points in competitions like the U. S. Open. They showed three groups of 15 participants images of just the face, just the body, or both together, and asked the viewers whether the images showed positive or negative emotions. People who saw the body — with or without the face — accurately distinguished whether the player was happy or distraught. Those who viewed just the faces failed to do so. The team also transformed winning faces onto losing bodies and vice versa, and found the body cues determined whether viewers thought the players had won. The findings don’t rule out the face from all emotional indicators, he said. “But when things become very intense, the good and the bad combine together, and it’s hard to tell if it’s positive or negative,” he added. Interestingly, when people saw a body and face together, they said they made judgments based on facial expression. “People use information from the body and then they read it into the face,” Hievet said. 28. What is the finding of the new study? A. You cannot tell one’s emotions from the face. B. Body can better indicate intense emotions than face. C. Facial expressions tend to be different in joy and despair. D. People thought they made accurate assessments and inferences from body language. 29. Why are other studies mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To clarify the misunderstandings of other studies. B. To assess the validity of previous studies. C. To show the limitation of existing studies. D. To prove the value of facial expression. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Research background. B. Research method. C. Research results. D. Research application. 31. What does the underlined word “distraught” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Ashamed. B. Indifferent. C. Embarrassed. D. Upset. D Landscape architect Kotchakorn Voraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25 miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess(过度的)energy use, disrupted biodiversity or the heat island effect. The 236,806-square-foot structure, which opened in December 2019, includes a flood water management system and Asia’s largest rooftop organic farm. It combines modern landscape architecture with traditional agricultural knowledge, creating a green and friendly environment. The green roof containing an H-shaped landscape, looks like a futuristic hill with a brick building beneath it. The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces(之字形梯田)of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds. The excess water is directed into four storage ponds—with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains. The roof’s terraces are filled with organically grow n crops, including a drought tolerant variety of rice, many local vegetables and herbs. The farm can supply the canteens on campus with a large amount of rice, herbs and vegetables a year. The food waste is composted(把……制成堆肥)to make the soil of the farm richer, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system. The farm serves as an outdoor classroom and a source of local jobs, too. Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability course. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and soon,” says Voraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.” 32. What can we say about Voraakhom’s work? A. It’s creative. B. It’s demanding. C. It’s short-lived. D. It’s energy-consuming. 33. Why is the rooftop designed to be zigzag? A. To look more distinctive. B. To increase water storage. C. To plant diverse vegetables. D. To decline the flow rate of water. 34. What can be inferred about the farm from paragraph 4? A. It features recycling. B. It improves students’ lifestyle. C. It develops the most healthy crops. D. It has better outputs than other farms. 35. Why does the author talk about the outdoor classroom? A. To complain about the poor employment. B. To encourage innovation in local communities. C. To show the possibility for farmers to become professors. D. To speak favorably of the students’ access to hands-on knowledge. 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。 Music is arguably the most life-enriching academic subject. ____36____.

After work, I had to take the laptop my colleague left in my office to his house before it came. On the way to his place, I picked up two pizzas because I’d promised my kids I'd bring some home for dinner. It took me about 15 minutes to get to my colleague’s house, where I dropped off the laptop case and got right back on the road. Then the snow started and it was coming down fast. It came in fast and so windy that it screamed. The windows were fogging up and getting covered with snow. I didn’t have a clue where I was. I stopped because I was afraid of driving into a farmer's field. I called 911. The dispatcher (调度员) told me to sit tight and wait things out for the night — nobody was coming to get me until morning at the earliest. Those seconds after the call were agony. Getting out to walk in the white world with zero visibility, high winds and a low temperature wasn’t a wise option. Would the storm continue for longer than predicted or would I be found too late? My kids! It was the first time they would ever be spending a night without me at home. I was literally terrified at the scene that the snow was piled up. I stayed in the car and texted my colleague whose laptop bag I had just returned. He had an idea.“ Pin your location on Google Maps and send it to me,” he said. I did, and a few minutes later he told me that I was on a road called Bouvier Lane, in between two farms. At 6:30p. m, I posted this new information to my Facebook community group, hoping for anyone who knew who lived on the farms to help me get rescued. At 8 p. m, my cellphone rang. It was the son of the farmer who owned the land beside the road I was stranded on. He told me that his dad, Andy, was coming to get me. 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。 Later, I saw a tall figure moving toward me in the dark, carrying a flashlight and a shovel(铲子). _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In Andy’s home, his wife, Maryann Bouvier, treated me to hot drinks. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025 学年云县第一完全中学上学期高二年级11 月月考卷 英语 本试卷满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1、答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试题卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2、选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3、非选择题的作答：用签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4、考试结束后，请将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 How will the speakers go to the concert hall?

You may look at his or her face. However, a new study finds when people are at the peak of joy or despair, their body language is a more reliable indicator of their emotions than their face. “You can’t tell from the face alone if something good is going on or bad going on. When people see the faces alone, they’re kind of lost,” said Julliel Hievet, a psychologist at the Hebrew University. “The body maintains a clear signal of positive and negative.” Hievet also noted that most researches on reading emotions focused on the face. A few studies had shown people rely on body language to read emotions when it conflicts with someone’s facial expression, but those studies used trained actors in poses. His research team wanted to see how people use body language to read intense emotions. To do so, his team gathered dozens of images of top tennis players at the moment they won or lost critical points in competitions like the U. S. Open. They showed three groups of 15 participants images of just the face, just the body, or both together, and asked the viewers whether the images showed positive or negative emotions. People who saw the body — with or without the face — accurately distinguished whether the player was happy or distraught. Those who viewed just the faces failed to do so. The team also transformed winning faces onto losing bodies and vice versa, and found the body cues determined whether viewers thought the players had won. The findings don’t rule out the face from all emotional indicators, he said. “But when things become very intense, the good and the bad combine together, and it’s hard to tell if it’s positive or negative,” he added. Interestingly, when people saw a body and face together, they said they made judgments based on facial expression. “People use information from the body and then they read it into the face,” Hievet said. 28. What is the finding of the new study? A. You cannot tell one’s emotions from the face. B. Body can better indicate intense emotions than face. C. Facial expressions tend to be different in joy and despair. D. People thought they made accurate assessments and inferences from body language. 29. Why are other studies mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To clarify the misunderstandings of other studies. B. To assess the validity of previous studies. C. To show the limitation of existing studies. D. To prove the value of facial expression. 30. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Research background. B. Research method. C. Research results. D. Research application. 31. What does the underlined word “distraught” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Ashamed. B. Indifferent. C. Embarrassed. D. Upset. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，当人们处于快乐或绝望的顶峰时，他们的肢体语言比他们的面部表情更能反映他们的情绪。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, a new study finds when people are at the peak of joy or despair, their body language is a more reliable indicator of their emotions than their face. ( 然而，一项新的研究发现，当人们处于快乐或绝望的顶峰时，他们的肢体语言比他们的面部表情更能反映他们的情绪。)”可知，一项新的研究发现，身体能比面部更好地表达强烈的情绪。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Hievet also noted that most researches on reading emotions focused on the face. A few studies had shown people rely on body language to read emotions when it conflicts with someone’s facial expression, but those studies used trained actors in poses. (Hievet还指出，大多数关于阅读情绪的研究都集中在面部。一些研究表明，当身体语言与某人的面部表情发生冲突时，人们会依靠身体语言来解读情绪，但这些研究使用的是训练有素的演员。)”可推知，第三段提到其他研究是为了指出现有研究的局限性，故选C。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“His research team wanted to see how people use body language to read intense emotions. To do so, his team gathered dozens of images of top tennis players at the moment they won or lost critical points in competitions like the U. S. Open. They showed three groups of 15 participants images of just the face, just the body, or both together, and asked the viewers whether the images showed positive or negative emotions. (为了做到这一点，他的团队收集了几十张杰出网球运动员在美国网球公开赛等比赛中赢得或失去关键分时的照片。他们向三组15人的参与者展示只有脸部、身体或两者合一的图像，并询问观众这些图像是否表现出积极或消极的情绪。)”可知，第四段主要介绍了研究方法，故选B。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“They showed three groups of 15 participants images of just the face, just the body, or both together, and asked the viewers whether the images showed positive or negative emotions. (他们向三组15人的参与者展示只有脸部、身体或两者合一的图像，并询问观众这些图像是否表现出积极或消极的情绪。)”和第五段中“People who saw the body—with or without the face—accurately distinguished whether the player was happy or distraught. (看到身体的人——不管有没有脸——都能准确地判断出运动员是高兴还是distraught)”可知，划线单词指的是上文的消极的情绪，即与happy是对应的，表示“心烦的”。故选D。 D Landscape architect Kotchakorn Voraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25 miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess(过度的)energy use, disrupted biodiversity or the heat island effect. The 236,806-square-foot structure, which opened in December 2019, includes a flood water management system and Asia’s largest rooftop organic farm. It combines modern landscape architecture with traditional agricultural knowledge, creating a green and friendly environment. The green roof, containing an H-shaped landscape, looks like a futuristic hill with a brick building beneath it. The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces(之字形梯田)of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds. The excess water is directed into four storage ponds—with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains. The roof’s terraces are filled with organically grow n crops, including a drought tolerant variety of rice, many local vegetables and herbs. The farm can supply the canteens on campus with a large amount of rice, herbs and vegetables a year. The food waste is composted(把……制成堆肥)to make the soil of the farm richer, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system. The farm serves as an outdoor classroom and a source of local jobs, too. Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability course. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and soon,” says Voraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.” 32. What can we say about Voraakhom’s work? A. It’s creative. B. It’s demanding. C. It’s short-lived. D. It’s energy-consuming. 33. Why is the rooftop designed to be zigzag? A. To look more distinctive. B. To increase water storage. C. To plant diverse vegetables. D. To decline the flow rate of water. 34. What can be inferred about the farm from paragraph 4? A. It features recycling. B. It improves students’ lifestyle. C. It develops the most healthy crops. D. It has better outputs than other farms. 35. Why does the author talk about the outdoor classroom? A. To complain about the poor employment. B. To encourage innovation in local communities. C. To show the possibility for farmers to become professors. D. To speak favorably of the students’ access to hands-on knowledge. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了泰国国立法政大学兰实校区的一个新绿色屋顶，它由景观设计师 Kotchakorn Voraakhom 设计，包括一个洪水管理系统和亚洲最大的屋顶有机农场。文章介绍了绿色屋顶的形状、功能以及好处。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Landscape architect Kotchakorn Voraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess(过度的)energy use, disrupted biodiversity or the heat island effect.(景观设计师 Kotchakorn Voraakhom 在泰国曼谷以北约 25 英里的泰国国立法政大学兰实校区设计了一个新的绿色屋顶。她富有想象力的作品挑战了人们的普遍看法，即城市化对地球有负面影响，无论是洪水、过度的能源使用、生物多样性的破坏还是热岛效应)”可推知，Voraakhom 的作品很有创意。故选 A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds. The excess water is directed into four storage ponds—with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains.(当雨水击中屋顶时，它会沿着 Zigzags 流下，同时被 beds 中的土壤吸收。多余的水被引入四个蓄水池，容量高达 300 万加仑。与普通混凝土屋顶相比，这一过程减缓了雨水径流的流速。这使得该地区在暴雨期间不会被洪水淹没)”可知，屋顶被设计成 Zigzag 形状是为了降低水流速度。故选 D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The food waste is composted(把……制成堆肥)to make the soil of the farm richer, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system.(食物垃圾被制成堆肥，使农场的土壤更加肥沃，蓄水池中的水被用来浇灌植物，创造了一个完全本地化和循环的系统)”可推知，农场的特点是循环利用。故选 A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability course. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and soon,” says Voraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.”(作为大学可持续发展课程的一部分，农民们提供关于可持续农业和营养的讲习班。Voraakhom 说：“我们邀请学生和社区成员参加季节性播种、收获等活动。这座城市农场正在用现实世界的技能培训新一代的有机农民。它还促进了社区意识。”)”可推知，作者提到户外教室是为了赞扬学生获得实践知识的机会。故选 D。 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。 Music is arguably the most life-enriching academic subject. ____36____.

After work, I had to take the laptop my colleague left in my office to his house before it came. On the way to his place, I picked up two pizzas because I’d promised my kids I'd bring some home for dinner. It took me about 15 minutes to get to my colleague’s house, where I dropped off the laptop case and got right back on the road. Then the snow started and it was coming down fast. It came in fast and so windy that it screamed. The windows were fogging up and getting covered with snow. I didn’t have a clue where I was. I stopped because I was afraid of driving into a farmer's field. I called 911. The dispatcher (调度员) told me to sit tight and wait things out for the night — nobody was coming to get me until morning at the earliest. Those seconds after the call were agony. Getting out to walk in the white world with zero visibility, high winds and a low temperature wasn’t a wise option. Would the storm continue for longer than predicted or would I be found too late? My kids! It was the first time they would ever be spending a night without me at home. I was literally terrified at the scene that the snow was piled up. I stayed in the car and texted my colleague whose laptop bag I had just returned. He had an idea.“ Pin your location on Google Maps and send it to me,” he said. I did, and a few minutes later he told me that I was on a road called Bouvier Lane, in between two farms. At 6:30p. m, I posted this new information to my Facebook community group, hoping for anyone who knew who lived on the farms to help me get rescued. At 8 p. m, my cellphone rang. It was the son of the farmer who owned the land beside the road I was stranded on. He told me that his dad, Andy, was coming to get me. 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。 Later, I saw a tall figure moving toward me in the dark, carrying a flashlight and a shovel(铲子). _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In Andy’s home, his wife, Maryann Bouvier, treated me to hot drinks. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Later, I saw a tall figure moving toward me in the dark, carrying a flashlight and a shovel (铲子). It was Andy, the farmer, who had come to rescue me from the snowstorm. Despite the fierce wind and blinding snow, he managed to reach my car. He quickly cleared a path through the snow with his shovel and guided me safely to his pickup truck. “Let’s get you warmed up,” he shouted over the howling wind. We made our way back to his farmhouse, fighting against the relentless snow. In Andy’s home, his wife, Maryann Bouvier, treated me to hot drinks. The warmth of the house and their hospitality quickly eased my worries. As I sipped the steaming cup, I felt incredibly grateful for their kindness and quick response. Maryann insisted I stay the night due to the unsafe weather conditions. The next morning, with the storm subsided, Andy drove me back to my car. I thanked them profusely and promised to return their kindness one day. That day, amidst the whiteout, I found hope and humanity in the generous spirit of Andy and Maryann. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，文章主要介绍了作者在暴风雪夜归途中被困，在绝望时通过社交媒体求助，最终得到邻近农场的农民家庭营救并得到温暖款待的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“后来，我看到一个高大的身影在黑暗中向我走来，手里拿着手电筒和铲子。”可知，第一段可描写Andy是如何在恶劣天气中找到并帮助作者脱困的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“在Andy的家里，他的妻子Maryann Bouvier请我喝了热饮。”可知，第二段可描写作者在农民家里得到的热情招待及他们之间的互动。 2.续写线索：Andy接近车辆——帮助作者脱困——带他回家——Maryann热情招待——感激——次日离开 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①营救：rescue/save ②大喊：shout/yell/call out ③感谢某人：thank sb./say thanks to sb. 情绪类 ①感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was Andy, the farmer, who had come to rescue me from the snowstorm.（运用了强调句型） 【高分句型2】We made our way back to his farmhouse, fighting against the relentless snow. （运用了现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型3】As I sipped the steaming cup, I felt incredibly grateful for their kindness and quick response.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$nullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnull
