Aral Sea The Aral Sea is an inland lake that lies to the north of Uzbekistan and to the south of Kazkhstan. Its name literally（按字面）means “the sea of island” in the Turkic language. Thus, its name refers to the many islands that dotted it in the past. Although the Aral Sea occupied a vast area of about 68,000 square km for a long period of time, it’s believed to be less than 10% of its original site. Caspian Sea The Caspian Sea is also an inland lake. Often regarded as the largest lake in the world, the Caspian Sea is located between the continents of Asia and Europe. The Caspian Sea is an enclosed water body. It is called “sea” probably because of its massive size of 371, 000 square km and its saltiness. Salton Sea Located in California, US, the Salton Sea is a rift lake that is saline (咸的) in nature. Several rivers, creeks, agricultural runoffs，and drainage systems feed this lake. The Salton Sea encompasses (包括) an area of 890 square km, making it the largest lake in California. Sea of Galilee The Sea of Galilee is a freshwater lake with “sea” in its name. It occupies an area of 166.7 square km in Israel. It is the second-lowest lake in the world after the Dead Sea with the surface elevation (海拔) ranging from 705ft to 686ft below sea level. The Jordan River is the primary source of water for the Sea of Galilee. Underground springs also feed water to the lake. 1. Which is the second biggest of the four lakes? A. Aral Sea. B. Caspian Sea. C. Salton Sea. D. Sea of Galilee. 2. Which of the following a TRUE according to the text? A. The Aral Sea belongs to Turkey. B. The location of the Salton Sea is California, US. C. The Caspian Sea is a freshwater lake between Asia and Europe. D. The primary source of water for the Sea of Galilee is underground springs. 3. Where can the text be found? A. In a history book. B. In a novel. C. In a geography magazine. D. In a biography. B On a Thursday afternoon in March, a Baltimore restaurant received an email request: fried broccoli(西兰花) topped with fresh herbs and onion. The woman who sent the email was actually writing in place of her mother, Jane, who enjoyed the dish, but was now in the final stages of lung cancer. Steve Chu, owner of the restaurant, read the email and quickly replied, “Thanks for reaching out,” he wrote. “We’d like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you. You tell us the date and location and we’ll be there.” For the past 10 years, every time Jane visited Baltimore, she would go to the restaurant to order her favourite dish. That Friday after work, a day after receiving Rina’s email, Steve loaded his truck with cooking equipment and ingredients needed and then headed for Vermont with two employees. They stayed overnight in a motel(汽车旅馆) and drove the next day to the flat where Rina’s mother lived. As soon as Steve and his team pulled into the parking lot, they got down to work. In addition to broccoli, they made tofu with peanut sauce and some steamed rice. After neatly boxing(装箱) everything up, they knocked on their customer’s door. Immediately Jane opened the door, she was greeted by the familiar smell. The mother also recognized Steve. “I don’t understand. You drove all the way up here to cook for me?” Jane screamed(尖叫). As for Steve, he couldn’t help remembering his regular customer. “She loves the food and frequents our restaurant,” he said. Steve and his team declined the invitation to join the family for dinner, for they needed to get back to Baltimore. Steve also wouldn’t accept any money from the family. Rina was happy that her mother was able to enjoy her beloved broccoli at home. 4. Which of the following is true about Jane? A. She suffered from a curable disease. B. She was particular about what she ate. C. She was a regular customer of the restaurant. D. She wrote the email to the restaurant in person. 5. What did Steve’s team do to make Jane’s day? A. He treated her to a big dinner in Vermont. B. They drove to Vermont and made the dish there. C. He shared the recipe of the dish with her. D. He delivered the dish to Jane’s home by air. 6. Which of the following best describes Steve Chu? A. Caring and calm. B. Friendly and outgoing. C. Warm-hearted and generous. D. Kind and determined. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A restaurant going beyond its duties B A cancer sufferer’s road to recovery C. Fried broccoli: a popular dish in the US D. Nice surprises are essential for life C How good are we at predicting what people will do? What magazine will they buy, what music will they download, or what shoes will they choose for a party? Probably not nearly as good as we think. When it comes to human behavior, the brain is shown to have two different ways of thinking. So it doesn’t matter how old you are or how confident you are feeling. It’s all about what mood the brain is in! A common thought process is the automatic and fast way which helps us to react quickly in dangerous situations. This is known as system 1 and dates back to the prehistoric (史前的) times when people lived with a natural awareness of the dangers around them — bad weather, falling rocks and trees, and threatening animals. Nowadays we still have the ability to react so rapidly and naturally to situations that it can feel like you’re not thinking at all. Have you ever found yourself giving in to temptation (诱惑) and unable to say “no” to buying that new jacket in the window? This is because system 1 is in control — a human characteristic which the world of advertising likes to make the most of! System 2 is the opposite. It’s a slow thought process that requires us to pay attention and concentrate. This way of thinking helps us to make sensible long-term decisions like choosing which university to study at, or what type of car to buy. The problem is that system 2 often starts to feel boring and so system 1 takes over. How often have you put down your homework or put off doing important jobs to go on Facebook or watch a TV soap? We like to think that we go through life mainly using system 2. However, sometimes it’s system 1 that makes the right decision but system 2 that gets it wrong. For example, sports teams put a lot of effort into a game plan, but often it’s the unconscious (无意识的) human wish to do something differently that often leads to an unexpected win. This can also lead to the common mistaken idea that your successful decisions show your skill and talent, when in fact they are just luck. Perhaps one day scientists will be able to predict what decisions people will make by measuring brain activity. In one study, volunteers were monitored with brain-scanning equipment. They were asked to press either a left or a right button whenever they wanted. The researchers found they could predict which button the volunteers would press up to seven seconds before it happened — your brain seems to know what it will do before you do! Some scientists say our brains are just machines and we are not really in control of what’s going on. Let’s hope they’re wrong! It’s one thing to be able to tell which of two buttons a person will press, but I don’t like the idea that science could one day tell me what decisions I will make in my life before I’ve even had the chance to make them! 8. In which case is system 1 more likely to be in control? A. When you choose a university. B. When you plan a birthday party. C. When you prepare for a performance. D. When you buy a jacket in the window. 9. Why is the example of sports teams mentioned in Paragraph 4? A. To show system 1 sometimes makes the right decision. B To show system 2 usually makes the wrong decision. C. To show we go through life mainly using system 2. D. To show people are more willing to use system 1. 10. How does the author feel about the idea that scientists can predict people’s decisions? A. Disappointed. B. Unhappy. C. Shocked. D. Fortunate. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Two Systems of Thought B. Early Brain Development C. Importance of Planning D. Two Ways of Dealing with Danger D Paws walk across my keyboard, and my cat Monty lies on my lap, unaware of the world beyond our garden fence. In these uncertain times of the pandemic, the company of animals is needed more than ever. To the joy of our cats, dogs and all pets in between, staying at home is an opportunity to give them our undivided attention. In return, they provide us with a much-needed source of happiness. Pet ownership is well known to help settle anxiety, reduce loneliness and lift moods. Even as we spend an unprecedented（空前的）amount of time in isolation（隔离）, pets are still acting as channels to building a sense of community as people share pictures of their beloved companions online in an effort to raise spirits. It is in such times that we realize just how much our pets matter as part of the family. As a long-term cat lady, I have never questioned that a pet is a precious member of the household. Our pets can be as valuable as our human family members in teaching us about ourselves and how to approach the world. In short, our animals' love and loyalty are unique. As such, the death of a pet can feel as sad as that of a close friend or family member. The grief（悲痛）remains something that is often seen as shameful, and many admit to demanding time off work without being honest about why. However, with the loss of a pet comes an emptiness where their unconditional love once was, and moments in the day once dedicated to their care become suddenly unoccupied. Vet and author James Herriot wrote, "If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty and thankfulness, animals are better off than a lot of humans." Pets are an additional member of the family, and now more than ever, they can serve as models for the kind of basic humanity we ought to be extending to an unstable world. 12. What is the main idea of paragraphs 1 and 2? A. How to play with pets. B. How keeping a pet benefits humans. C. How the author started to keep a pet. D. How pets keep people away during isolation. 13. What does the author think pets mean to humans? A. They are as precious as our family members. B. They are only secondary to family members. C. They are more like teachers than friends. D. They help us take care of our family. 14. Why do people lie when requesting time off after the death of a pet? A. They feel puzzled about its death. B. They consider it a private family thing. C. They are annoyed by the feeling of emptiness. D. They feel embarrassed about their sadness over it. 15. What does James Herriot imply in the last paragraph? A. Pets can teach us to be better humans. B. Pets need more attention now than ever. C. Pets and humans have little in common. D. Pets can act as a tool to calm the world. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make a Difference to the World Many people believe that they don’t have what it takes to make a difference to the world.They believe only people like Mother Teresa, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Bill Gates are able to do so.___16___The following is a guide as to how small people like us can make a difference to the world.

Shortly after her daughter Kate’s birth, Catherine decided she wanted a close bond (纽带) with a dog for Kate. Thus, Catherine called the dog shelter close by to inquire (问询) about adoption. After hearing about the available animals, she chose a Doberman Pinscher. Once they signed adoption papers, they named the dog Khan. Catherine was hopeful this would provide valuable lessons for her baby, such as sharing, learning to love and responsibility to care for animals. She was looking forward to having the dog join the family. Hearing of Khan’s rough background, Catherine immediately loved the dog. She was overjoyed to bring this special dog back to her family. Or course, she realized there were risks involved. Well, the obvious risks from bringing a large, potentially dangerous animal to her young baby, Catherine pushed them aside. If she had not adopted Khan, he would have been killed just a week later. So, this was his new life and second chance, and the family was hoping for the best. Everything began smoothly. They trained Khan during the first few days. However, everything changed on that fourth day when the dog acted completely out of character. The fateful (对未来有重大影响的) day began with the usual playtime in the yard. Although baby Kate had her parents watching from a distance, they did not notice anything out of the ordinary Kate and the new dog had been making a habit of playing out back like this. However, things were different this day. So what was actually happening out there? The two were not being loud or crazy. They began running through the backyard grass together. Again, Catherine watched the two closely. Surprisingly, things had changed within an instant (一瞬间)! 注意：1．续写词数应为150词左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Khan began acting wildly all of a sudden. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Obviously, it was Khan who saved her baby but he barked weakly and then fell down with dying eyes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案： 1—5 ABACA 6—10 CACBA 11—15 BBCCB 16—20 ABBCA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 伊春市第一中学2024-2025学年度第一学期高二学年英语考试 英语科目试卷 注意事项： 1.本试卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟 2. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的班级、姓名、考号填写在答题卡上。 3. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，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，再涂选其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡指定区域内。写在本试卷上无效。 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。 例： How much is the shirt?

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。人们总是对深邃而神秘的大海充满幻想，然而，所谓的海并不都是我们想象中的无边无际的大海,也可能是美丽或壮丽的湖泊，本文介绍了几个被称为海洋的湖泊。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Aral Sea 中的“Although the Aral Sea occupied a vast area of about 68，000 square km for a long period of time，it’s believed to be less than 10% of its original site. （虽然在很长一段时间内，咸海占据了约68000平方公里的广阔区域，但据信它还不到原来的10%）”，以及Caspian Sea中的“The Caspian Sea is an enclosed water body，it is called “sea” probably because of its massive size of 371, 000 square km and its saltinss. （里海是一个封闭的水体,它被称为“海”可能是因为它的巨大面积37.1万平方公里和它的咸味）”，和Sal ton Sea 中的“The Sal ton Sea encompasses (包括) an area of 890 square km making it the largest lake in California. （索尔顿海的面积为890平方公里，是加州最大的湖泊）”及Sea of Galilee“It occupies an area of 166.7 square km in Israel. （它在以色列占有166.7平方公里的面积）”可知，通过数字对比可知，四个中第二大的是咸海。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三个湖介绍中的第一行“Located in California, US, the Salton Sea is a rift lake that is saline (咸的) in nature.（位于美国加州的索尔顿海是一个天然的咸水裂谷湖）”可知索尔顿海位于美国加利福尼亚州。故选B项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“People are always full of imagination about the deep and mysterious sea, however, the waters known as the sea are not all the endless seas as we think, or may be beautiful or magnificent lakes. （人们总是对深邃而神秘的大海充满幻想，然而，所谓的海并不都是我们想象中的无边无际的大海,也可能是美丽或壮丽的湖泊）”以及下文介绍了几个被称为海洋的湖泊。由此推知，本文可能来自地理杂志。故选C项。 B On a Thursday afternoon in March, a Baltimore restaurant received an email request: fried broccoli(西兰花) topped with fresh herbs and onion. The woman who sent the email was actually writing in place of her mother, Jane, who enjoyed the dish, but was now in the final stages of lung cancer. Steve Chu, owner of the restaurant, read the email and quickly replied, “Thanks for reaching out,” he wrote. “We’d like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you. You tell us the date and location and we’ll be there.” For the past 10 years, every time Jane visited Baltimore, she would go to the restaurant to order her favourite dish. That Friday after work, a day after receiving Rina’s email, Steve loaded his truck with cooking equipment and ingredients needed and then headed for Vermont with two employees. They stayed overnight in a motel(汽车旅馆) and drove the next day to the flat where Rina’s mother lived. As soon as Steve and his team pulled into the parking lot, they got down to work. In addition to broccoli, they made tofu with peanut sauce and some steamed rice. After neatly boxing(装箱) everything up, they knocked on their customer’s door. Immediately Jane opened the door, she was greeted by the familiar smell. The mother also recognized Steve. “I don’t understand. You drove all the way up here to cook for me?” Jane screamed(尖叫). As for Steve, he couldn’t help remembering his regular customer. “She loves the food and frequents our restaurant,” he said. Steve and his team declined the invitation to join the family for dinner, for they needed to get back to Baltimore. Steve also wouldn’t accept any money from the family. Rina was happy that her mother was able to enjoy her beloved broccoli at home. 4. Which of the following is true about Jane? A. She suffered from a curable disease. B. She was particular about what she ate. C. She was a regular customer of the restaurant. D. She wrote the email to the restaurant in person. 5. What did Steve’s team do to make Jane’s day? A.

Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A restaurant going beyond its duties B. A cancer sufferer’s road to recovery C. Fried broccoli: a popular dish in the US D. Nice surprises are essential for life 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是简喜欢一家餐厅的菜，餐厅的老板在收到简的女儿的电子邮件后带上食材赶到简住的公寓，为她做那道菜。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“For the past 10 years, every time Jane visited Baltimore, she would go to the restaurant to order her favourite dish.（在过去的10年里，每次简来巴尔的摩，她都会去餐馆点她最喜欢的菜。）”和倒数第三段的“As for Steve, he couldn’t help remembering his regular customer. “She loves the food and frequents our restaurant,” he said.（至于史蒂夫，他不由自主地想起了自己的老客户。“她喜欢我们的食物，经常光顾我们的餐厅，”他说。）”可知，Jane是这家餐馆的常客。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的“That Friday after work, a day after receiving Rina’s email, Steve loaded his truck with cooking equipment and ingredients needed and then headed for Vermont with two employees.（那个周五下班后，也就是收到丽娜邮件的第二天，史蒂夫把烹饪设备和所需的食材装上卡车，然后带着两名员工前往佛蒙特州 。）”和第五段的“As soon as Steve and his team pulled into the parking lot, they got down to work. In addition to broccoli, they made tofu with peanut sauce and some steamed rice. After neatly boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer’s door.（史蒂夫和他的团队一进停车场，就开始工作。除了西兰花，他们还用花生酱和一些米饭做豆腐。他们把东西整齐地打包好后，就去敲顾客的门。）”可知，史蒂夫的团队他们开车到佛蒙特州，在那里做了这道菜让简开心，故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“We’d like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you.（我们想在佛蒙特见到你，给你做点新鲜的。）和”倒数第二段的“Steve and his team declined the invitation to join the family for dinner, for they needed to get back to Baltimore. Steve also wouldn’t accept any money from the family.（史蒂夫和他的团队拒绝了与家人共进晚餐的邀请，因为他们需要回到巴尔的摩。史蒂夫也不会接受这个家庭的任何钱。）”可知，史蒂夫和他的团队开车去专门给简做饭，就为了让她开心，而且不收钱，因此Steve Chu是热心的和慷慨的。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段的“That Friday after work, a day after receiving Rina’s email, Steve loaded his truck with cooking equipment and ingredients needed and then headed for Vermont with two employees. They stayed overnight in a motel(汽车旅馆) and drove the next day to the flat where Rina’s mother lived.（那个周五下班后，也就是收到丽娜邮件的第二天，史蒂夫把烹饪设备和所需的食材装上卡车，然后带着两名员工前往佛蒙特州。他们在一家汽车旅馆过夜，第二天开车去了丽娜母亲住的公寓。）”可知，本文主要讲的是一个餐馆亲自赶到异地为老顾客做菜的故事，因此A选项“A restaurant going beyond its duties（超出其职责范围的餐馆）”是最恰当的题目，故选A。 C How good are we at predicting what people will do? What magazine will they buy, what music will they download, or what shoes will they choose for a party? Probably not nearly as good as we think. When it comes to human behavior, the brain is shown to have two different ways of thinking. So it doesn’t matter how old you are or how confident you are feeling. It’s all about what mood the brain is in! A common thought process is the automatic and fast way which helps us to react quickly in dangerous situations. This is known as system 1 and dates back to the prehistoric (史前的) times when people lived with a natural awareness of the dangers around them — bad weather, falling rocks and trees, and threatening animals. Nowadays we still have the ability to react so rapidly and naturally to situations that it can feel like you’re not thinking at all. Have you ever found yourself giving in to temptation (诱惑) and unable to say “no” to buying that new jacket in the window? This is because system 1 is in control — a human characteristic which the world of advertising likes to make the most of! System 2 is the opposite. It’s a slow thought process that requires us to pay attention and concentrate. This way of thinking helps us to make sensible long-term decisions like choosing which university to study at, or what type of car to buy. The problem is that system 2 often starts to feel boring and so system 1 takes over. How often have you put down your homework or put off doing important jobs to go on Facebook or watch a TV soap? We like to think that we go through life mainly using system 2. However, sometimes it’s system 1 that makes the right decision but system 2 that gets it wrong. For example, sports teams put a lot of effort into a game plan, but often it’s the unconscious (无意识的) human wish to do something differently that often leads to an unexpected win. This can also lead to the common mistaken idea that your successful decisions show your skill and talent, when in fact they are just luck. Perhaps one day scientists will be able to predict what decisions people will make by measuring brain activity. In one study, volunteers were monitored with brain-scanning equipment. They were asked to press either a left or a right button whenever they wanted. The researchers found they could predict which button the volunteers would press up to seven seconds before it happened — your brain seems to know what it will do before you do! Some scientists say our brains are just machines and we are not really in control of what’s going on. Let’s hope they’re wrong! It’s one thing to be able to tell which of two buttons a person will press, but I don’t like the idea that science could one day tell me what decisions I will make in my life before I’ve even had the chance to make them! 8. In which case is system 1 more likely to be in control? A. When you choose a university. B. When you plan a birthday party. C. When you prepare for a performance. D. When you buy a jacket in the window. 9. Why is the example of sports teams mentioned in Paragraph 4? A. To show system 1 sometimes makes the right decision. B. To show system 2 usually makes the wrong decision. C. To show we go through life mainly using system 2. D. To show people are more willing to use system 1. 10. How does the author feel about the idea that scientists can predict people’s decisions? A. Disappointed. B. Unhappy. C. Shocked. D. Fortunate. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Two Systems of Thought B. Early Brain Development C. Importance of Planning D. Two Ways of Dealing with Danger 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了我们的大脑的两种思维模式，即系统1和系统2，以及在生活中两种模式是如何作用于我们的大脑决策的。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“Have you ever found yourself giving in to temptation (诱惑) and unable to say “no” to buying that new jacket in the window? This is because system 1 is in control — a human characteristic which the world of advertising likes to make the most of!(你有没有发现自己屈服于诱惑，无法对橱窗里的那件新夹克说“不”？这是因为系统1在控制——这是广告界喜欢充分利用的人类特征！)”可知，当看到橱窗里的新外套的时候，我们无法抵制诱惑想要把它买下来，这个时候系统1在控制我们的大脑思维。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“We like to think that we go through life mainly using system 2. However, sometimes it’s system 1 that makes the right decision but system 2 that gets it wrong. For example, sports teams put a lot of effort into a game plan, but often it’s the unconscious (无意识的) human wish to do something differently that often leads to an unexpected win.(我们喜欢认为我们的一生主要使用系统2。然而，有时是系统1做出了正确的决定，而系统2却做错了。例如，运动队在比赛计划上投入了大量精力，但通常是人类无意识地希望做一些不同的事情，这通常会导致意想不到的胜利)”可知，第4段提到了运动队的例子是为了表明系统1有时会做出正确的决定。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段“Some scientists say our brains are just machines and we are not really in control of what’s going on. Let’s hope they’re wrong! It’s one thing to be able to tell which of two buttons a person will press, but I don’t like the idea that science could one day tell me what decisions I will make in my life before I’ve even had the chance to make them!(一些科学家说，我们的大脑只是机器，我们并不能真正控制发生的事情。希望它们是错的！能够知道一个人会按下两个按钮中的哪一个是一回事，但我不喜欢这样的想法：有一天，在我有机会做出决定之前，科学就能告诉我我将在我的生活中做出什么决定！)”可知，作者对科学家可以预测人们的决定感到不高兴，故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“A common thought process is the automatic and fast way which helps us to react quickly in dangerous situations. This is known as system 1 and dates back to the prehistoric (史前的) times when people lived with a natural awareness of the dangers around them — bad weather, falling rocks and trees,and threatening animals.(一种常见的思维过程是自动和快速的方式，它帮助我们在危险的情况下迅速做出反应。这被称为系统1，可以追溯到史前时代，当时人们生活在一种对周围危险的自然意识中——恶劣的天气、落下的岩石和树木，以及受到威胁的动物)”和第三段“System 2 is the opposite. It’s a slow thought process that requires us to pay attention and concentrate. This way of thinking helps us to make sensible long-term decisions like choosing which university to study at, or what type of car to buy.(系统2是相反的。这是一个缓慢的思考过程，需要我们集中注意力。这种思维方式帮助我们做出明智的长期决定，比如选择哪所大学学习，或者买什么类型的车)”可知，本文主要介绍了我们的大脑的两种思维模式，即系统1和系统2，以及在生活中两种模式是如何作用于我们的大脑决策的，因此最好的题目是A选项“Two Systems of Thought (两种思维系统)”。故选A。 D Paws walk across my keyboard, and my cat Monty lies on my lap, unaware of the world beyond our garden fence. In these uncertain times of the pandemic, the company of animals is needed more than ever. To the joy of our cats, dogs and all pets in between, staying at home is an opportunity to give them our undivided attention. In return, they provide us with a much-needed source of happiness. Pet ownership is well known to help settle anxiety, reduce loneliness and lift moods. Even as we spend an unprecedented（空前的）amount of time in isolation（隔离）, pets are still acting as channels to building a sense of community as people share pictures of their beloved companions online in an effort to raise spirits. It is in such times that we realize just how much our pets matter as part of the family. As a long-term cat lady, I have never questioned that a pet is a precious member of the household. Our pets can be as valuable as our human family members in teaching us about ourselves and how to approach the world. In short, our animals' love and loyalty are unique. As such, the death of a pet can feel as sad as that of a close friend or family member. The grief（悲痛）remains something that is often seen as shameful, and many admit to demanding time off work without being honest about why. However, with the loss of a pet comes an emptiness where their unconditional love once was, and moments in the day once dedicated to their care become suddenly unoccupied. Vet and author James Herriot wrote, "If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty and thankfulness, animals are better off than a lot of humans." Pets are an additional member of the family, and now more than ever, they can serve as models for the kind of basic humanity we ought to be extending to an unstable world. 12. What is the main idea of paragraphs 1 and 2? A. How to play with pets. B. How keeping a pet benefits humans. C. How the author started to keep a pet. D. How pets keep people away during isolation. 13. What does the author think pets mean to humans? A. They are as precious as our family members. B. They are only secondary to family members. C. They are more like teachers than friends. D. They help us take care of our family. 14 Why do people lie when requesting time off after the death of a pet? A. They feel puzzled about its death. B. They consider it a private family thing. C. They are annoyed by the feeling of emptiness. D They feel embarrassed about their sadness over it. 15. What does James Herriot imply in the last paragraph? A. Pets can teach us to be better humans. B. Pets need more attention now than ever. C. Pets and humans have little in common. D. Pets can act as a tool to calm the world. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲的是养宠物的好处和宠物对人的重要性。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“In these uncertain times of the pandemic, the company of animals is needed more than ever...In return, they provide us with a much-needed source of happiness.（在大流行的不确定时期，人们比以往任何时候都更需要动物的陪伴……作为回报，他们为我们提供了急需的幸福源泉。）”及第二段的“Pet ownership is well known to help settle anxiety, reduce loneliness and lift moods. Even as we spend an unprecedented（空前的）amount of time in isolation（隔离）, pets are still acting as channels to building a sense of community as people share pictures of their beloved companions online in an effort to raise spirits.（众所周知，养宠物有助于缓解焦虑、减少孤独和改善情绪。尽管我们花了前所未有的时间与外界隔绝，但宠物仍然是建立社区意识的渠道，人们会在网上分享他们心爱的伴侣的照片，以提振精神。）”可知，第一段和第二段主要讲的是养宠物对人类的好处，即How keeping a pet benefits humans，故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“As a long-term cat lady, I have never questioned that a pet is a precious member of the household.（作为一个长期养猫的女人，我从未质疑过宠物是家庭中珍贵的一员。）”可知，作者认为宠物就像我们的家庭成员一样珍贵。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“The grief remains something that is often seen as shameful, and many admit to demanding time off work without being honest about why.（这种悲伤常常被视为是可耻的，许多人承认自己要求请假，但没有诚实地说明原因。）”可推断出，人们在宠物死亡后要求休假时会撒谎是因为他们对自己的悲伤感到尴尬。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty and thankfulness, animals are better off than a lot of humans...they can serve as models for the kind of basic humanity we ought to be extending to an unstable world（如果拥有灵魂意味着能够感受到爱、忠诚和感恩，那么动物比很多人都要好……他们可以作为我们应该向一个不稳定的世界延伸的基本人性的典范）”可推断出，James Herriot在最后一段中暗示了宠物可以教会我们成为更好的人。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make a Difference to the World Many people believe that they don’t have what it takes to make a difference to the world.They believe only people like Mother Teresa, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Bill Gates are able to do so.___16___The following is a guide as to how small people like us can make a difference to the world.
